Question: "I am a homeschooling mother
of four (ages 7-12). I'm at a loss as to how to
homeschool my son, Nathan, who is 12 years
old. He's behind in everything. It takes him
all day to do his work. He freezes when he
looks at his math papers. It takes him forever
to write anything. I know he's smart, but he
says he's 'dumb.' I want him to be an independent learner, but don't know how to get
him there."
Answer: It sounds like Nathan has shut
down on schoolwork, and is giving up. He
is doing this because he doesn't have any
other strategies to move on past the "stuck"
phase. This is exactly the population I
taught in my 6th, 7th and 8th grade Resource
Room. I called it my "Intensive Care Unit."
All my students had given up on learning.
In spite of good parents, teachers, and efforton the student's part, they met with morefailure than success. I knew that I needed todo something different than what was go-ing on in the regular classroom, using reg-ular curriculum. They needed what I call,"Healing Teaching."
What Is Healing Teaching?
Healing Teaching is a teaching method inwhich the teacher comes alongside a childand gives him learning strategies. It teachesthe child how to use his brain, by model-ing this with him. It sets up each lesson toensure immediate success. It takes manybaby steps towards that success. There isno "getting behind," because the work isdone together in a finite amount of time,with the goal to learn the material . . . notnecessarily to do all the problems, or all theworksheets. The content of the grade levelis never compromised, but the method ofteaching is turned "upside down." As theyare gently led to the right answers (andwrong answers are ignored, versus pointedout), they begin to relax and enjoy learn-ing, and become confident in their abilityto learn. This is why I referred to it as myIntensive Care Unit. I saw these wonder-ful students as having a severe case of the"learning flu." This process can easily bedone at home, even with other siblings toteach.
Examples of Healing Teaching
We are going to use gentle methods to lead
them to the correct answers. For example,
in my Remedial Reading class, my students
came into the room, and folded their arms,
resistant to any reading aloud, or any phonics program. What to do? I took away the
non-essential parts of decoding such as
writing or remembering rules. I wrote long
words on an overhead transparency with

just an idea on what i expect to see for gold's future movement
we have an overall bearish bias on multiple time frames and currently have a head and shoulders pattern forming. I expect this pairto move lower if we break the trendline on the right shoulder
just an idea about my expectations for cable's future movement
If we get a break above the highlighted zone then i expect this pair to move higher
If we get a break a break of 82.656 we could see price move higher
my idea of gold's future movement
Audjpy has shown a lot of downside potential recently so i expect this pair to continue downwards. This is a typical short setup so I believe its a good idea to short it we have 1)break of trend line 2)corrective structure 3)breakout of support

'He didn't trust women or cats': Meryl Streep blasts Walt Disney as a 'gender bigot' and 'anti-Semitic' at NYC film awards gala
- Actress Meryl Streep made a speech at the National Board of Review dinner in New York City on Tuesday
- She was there to honor actress Emma Thompson for her portrait of Mary Poppins' creator, PL Travers in Disney film, Saving Mr Banks
- Directed a few scathing comments during her speech at Walt Disney
- Streep said he had 'formed and supported an anti-Semitic industry lobby'
- She also said he didn't trust women and cats, according to one of his old colleagues
- Event was attended by many film stars who accepted awards, including Leonardo DiCaprio, Martin Scorsese, the Coen brothers and Spike Jonze
Hollywood actress Meryl Streep launched a nine-minute tirade against Walt Disney at the glamorous National Board of Review dinner in New York City on Tuesday.
Streep was at the event to honor Emma Thompson for her portrayal of Mary Poppins' creator, PL Travers in the Disney film, Saving Mr Banks.
She said of her good chum: 'Not only is she not irascible, she's practically a saint. There's something so consoling about that old trope, but Emma makes you want to kill yourself, because she's a beautiful artist, she's a writer, she's a thinker, she's a living, acting conscience.'
Scroll down for poem...
Scathing remarks: Actress Meryl Streep called Walt Disney a 'gender bigot' and 'anti-Semitic' in her speech on Tuesday. But she also praised her friend and fellow actress, Emma Thompson, as a 'beautiful artist'
We think the Brits are brittle
They think that we are mush
They are more sentimental, though we do tend to gush
Volcanoes of emotion, concealed beneath that lip
Where we are prone to guzzle, they tip the cup and sip
But when eruption rumbles from nowhere, near the brain, it's seismic
Granite crumbles
The heart more flows like rain
Like lava
All that feeling melts down
Like Oscar gold
And Emma leaves us reeling
A knockout, truth be told
The veteran film actress had even written a poem for Thompson entitled, An Ode to Emma, Or What Emma is Owed, according to Variety.
But in between all the good words, she managed to direct a few scathing ones at Walt Disney, who she called a 'hideous anti-Semite' who 'formed and supported an anti-Semitic industry lobby. And he was certainly, on the evidence of his company's policies, a gender bigot'.
Streep read a letter that his company wrote in 1938 to an aspiring female animator. It included the line, 'Women do not do any of the creative work in connection with preparing the cartoons for the screen, as that task is performed entirely by young men.'
'Some of his associates reported that Walt Disney didn't really like women,' Streep said, quoting esteemed animator Ward Kimball on his old boss: 'He didn't trust women or cats.'
Honoured: Emma Thompson for her portrayal of Mary Poppins¿ creator, PL Travers in the Disney film, Saving Mr Banks, pictured
However, she softened the blow by adding that 'there is a piece of received wisdom that says that the most creative people are often odd, or irritating, eccentric, damaged, difficult. That along with enormous creativity come certain deficits in humanity or decency.'
'We are familiar with this trope in our business: Mozart, Van Gogh, Tarantino, Eminem,' Streep added.
Tuesday's event is seen as a big pre-game to the Golden Globes and the biggest movie event until the Hollywood Foreign Press Association's gala on Sunday.
This year's list of honorees included Thompson for best actress, Bruce Dern for best actor for Nebraska, Will Forte for best supporting actor for Nebraska and Octavia Spencer for best supporting actress in Fruitvale Station.

The Weinstein Co.'s drama also received recognition for best-directorial debut for Ryan Coogler and breakthrough performance for Michael B. Jordan.
The movie, Her, landed best picture and best director for Spike Jonze. The night opened with Coogler accepting his award from Lee Daniels.
Michael B. Jordan got up on stage and thanked his father. 'He really showed me what it means to be a man.'
Brothers Joel and Ethan Coen were honoured for their Inside Llewyn Davis original screenplay and offered a characteristically short speech, according to Variety.

Ex-Sopranos writer Terence Winter accepted best-adapted screenplay for Wolf of Wall Street from Edie Falco and Steve Buscemi.
Some of the winners were repeats from the previous night's New York Film Critic's Circle Awards, including best animated feature for The Wind Rises and best documentary for Stories We Tell.
The trifecta of directors turned actors in Wolf of Wall Street –which includes Rob Reiner, Spike Jonze and Jon Favreau – presented the Spotlight Award to Leonardo DiCaprio and Martin Scorsese.
'We were never around when there was naked women,' Reiner complained.
Too long? Leo DiCaprio, shown here in a scene from the movie, Wolf of Wall Street, made a joke about the film's 179-minute running time

DiCaprio and Scorsese gave a funny speech where they completed each other's sentences.
'Keep it short,' Scorsese said.
'You mean, under-three-hours short?' DiCaprio asked, alluding to their film's 179-minute running time.
After thanking Streep for her tribute, Thompson mentioned New York's record-low temperatures.
'It's such a cold night,' Thompson said.'It's the only time I've been actively grateful for the menopause.'

text: As you can see here on these sex cartoons, nasty hoochie Drew from Secret Saturdays is anything but a shy girl. She doesn't stick to pleasuring humans only – there is a big black cock in her mouth (apparently, Doc's one) but there's also something very weird that she's holding in her right hand. It's a massive greenish love club that's about as nice-sized as Doc's unit… I can only imagine who the one it belongs to is. Is it Fiskerton? Or maybe it's a slightly more human version of Komodo? Hope that the toon porn sequels will answer my questions!

With the internet, universal access to education is achievable, but its prospective is hindered by increasingly restrictive copyright laws and incompatible technologies. Folks who claim that sex education in schools have much more cons than pros, usually come up with the statements suggesting that sex education in classroom ought to be avoided simply because the most successful tool for supplying sex education, according to them is Tv, films, magazines and media.
The contents of this website might not be reproduced partially or completely, with out due permission from Department of Education and Sports, Govt. This natural reaction can not in any way be associated to the outcome of sex education in schools. Therefore sex education is fundamentally a warning and a caution for such kids who are stepping into the phase of life exactly where they would require to know all this. Teachers want to meet educational requirements and stick to a specified curriculum, which can make it challenging for them to incorporate nontraditional content material.

The NSW Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) have stirred up a hornets nest with the heavy haulage industry in the past few weeks. At a time when the rules for the trucking industry are being integrated into a single set of rules, the roadside enforcement in NSW are now warning drivers of single trailer low loaders with dollies that an MC license is required to drive the truck, not an HC.
This particular interpretation of the rules appears to fly in the face of the way this rule is being enforced in the rest of Australia and also in the way it was enforced in NSW until recently. The RMS appear to have taken legal advice and found it is possible to demand the driver of a low loader, which uses a dolly between the truck turntable and the trailer, must have a MC license.
The legislation states in Queensland, Western Australia and Victoria that low loaders with low loader dollies will be deemed the same as semi trailers, in terms of license requirements.
The RMS decided to change the way the roadside enforcement deal with low loaders without warning the trucking industry.
"We have not been included in any discussion on this position, and have not been given any information from RMS to communicate to our members," said the ATA NSW, in a letter to the RMS complaining about the change. "We find this situation untenable, given we have had numerous meetings with RMS in the past that have provided ample opportunity and invitation to discuss this matter."
Since this letter was sent, ATA NSW has reported the results of a meeting with the people at RMS. The NSW authorities will not back down from the change in interpretation and insist an MC license is needed if the combination includes a low loader dolly.
Any drivers using the HC license will be issued with an official warning, which will be recorded. They will then be allowed to drive 'after being assessed as sufficiently experienced'. Further warnings will be issued if the driver is stopped again. However, in the end the driver will have to upgrade to an MC or face a penalty.
The RMS appear to have decided to take this course of action without consultation either with the industry or other authorities around Australia. Yet again, the state has decided to unilaterally change the rules for the trucking industry all over Australia by default. If this rule is applied in NSW, it will affect most of the low loader industry, as they will travel through NSW on a large proportion of their journeys.
This is yet another blow to the effort being put in to create a truly uniform national set of regulations for the trucking industry. As the process continues to bring road rules and roadside enforcement under one umbrella in the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator, one state chooses to come up with issues like this to hinder the project.

Having a fun outing will soon take on a whole new meaning for one of Pauls Valley's city lakes thanks to a grant sure to benefit boat owners.
A six-figure grant received by the city of Pauls Valley will soon result in the construction of a boat dock at what's best known as the Old City Lake.
Located just to the northeast of the city, the lake does have a dock for fishing but not one just for boats.
That's about to change, said Erin Creach, director of tourism in Pauls Valley.
"There's not an adequate docking for boats at that lake," Creach said.
A grant of $45,000 through the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation will allow for a dock just for boats to be built at the lake, possibly as early as next week.
Creach stresses the new dock is a big deal because of what it brings to Pauls Valley's original city lake.
"It's not going to be so close to the fishing dock that it interferes with the fishing," Creach said. "It also allows more fishermen to bring their boat and bring their families and enjoy the lake.
"You've always had to go out to Longmire (Lake) for that," she said, referring to a dock just for boats.
"We didn't have that option before out there at the old city lake."
Work in preparation for the new dock has been ongoing for some time by PV city crews.
As part of the city of Pauls Valley's in-kind match required to receive the grant funds, local city employees have been putting in plenty of time getting the area ready for the dock construction.
Factoring in the work of the city crews, the total cost of the project comes to around $62,000, Creach said.
"They helped build up the roughage on the shore, marked off areas for handicap parking," she said about the city crews.
A construction crew is expected to come in and get started building the new boat dock possibly next week.

Bored with your current bedroom design? Do you want to change it but worry about money? Just relax as this article will provide cheap DIY bedroom that will make your room look brand new. As a teenager, it is normal to be bored with the same bedroom design for a couple of weeks.
There are so many choices to change the decoration, but sadly it often costs more money. Well, take a look around you. You can use almost every material inside bedroom to change the decor. Starting from the door, if you have it plain with only one basic color, you might want to use washi tape to decorate it. You can mix and match the color then create some motifs or symbols as many as you want.
Next thing in bedroom design, you can also use string art as an alternative way in making signs. You only need to print any word you like to have inside bedroom then choose the color you want to have for the word. This simple yet brilliant string art sign will help you to be inspired in starting or ending your day every single time in bedroom.
If you still have enough space, just create your own hammock chair made from canvas at the corner of bedroom. Make sure to find enough canvas as the main material for the chair and choose the perfect colors. Well, your parents or your little sisters/brothers will love the chair as well.
The last but not least for cheap DIY design, it goes back to washi tape. In this case, the tape can also be used to cover the light switch. If your bedroom door already has a particular pattern, create the same one for light switch.
For example, if you put tribal motifs for the door, then just put the same motif to cover the light switch. After all, the more unique the design, the more you will realize how easy it is to create your own decoration without spending more of your money.

Producers: Chris Dewolfe, Jon Hart and Tom Anderson
Online Product: Myspace
Started: Aug.2003 – 14 years ago
Consumers: Anyone with a device to get online (INTERNET)
Kapital City Material…
Myspace that many of us are familiar with, was once popping and the most talked about social media site that begun in Aug.2003 by Chris Dewolfe, Jon Hart and Tom Anderson. There were many users and even I was one of them. We all were able to give our pages an awesome background layout, display our top friends and even add music to our page for visitors to hear. There were many other features that I did not get around to using that many people used. There was Myspace Tom that gained most of the popularity even though Tom was 1 out of 3 that was behind the creation of Myspace, everyone knew and know Tom's picture until this very day with Tom sitting at a desk, in a white T with the biggest smile on his face. In 2005, Myspace was sold for $580 million, now I see why Tom had the biggest smile on his face from US to Africa even though that money came later. Also in 2005, Chris Dewolfe tried to purchase Facebook but did not want to pay the 75 million for Facebook that Mark Zuckerberg was asking for but that was a good thing for Mark but that is for another blog. The $580M came only 2 years later after Myspace begun and that is a big deal to Kapital City to know what could be accomplished in a short period of time with persistence and hard work and gain enough Capital to do other things and/or retire. Zynga and RockYou, gaming companies became big because of Myspace's platform. Myspace is still running and has millions of active users until this very day so Myspace did not completely fade away, it just not the big thing anymore but from 2005 to 2008 it was the biggest social site in the world. Over the years Myspace generated millions and in 2008 Myspace generated over $800 million because of advertisements. Much respect to the dynamic duo, I wish I could retire in 2 years with $580 million in my bank account (laugh).
Facebook, Zynga and RockYou will be blogged at a later date.
Hi, very nice website, cheers!

One family in Los Fresnos is desperate after the recent disappearance of a 14-year-old.
Jazmin Lee Hernandez was last seen Saturday at the 9270 block of Los Olmos Drive. Her concerned mother, who lives in Houston, says she hasn't spoken to her in almost four weeks.
"A Sheriff already came. He came to see inside my house to see if my baby was here and then CPS came right now unexpectedly and I told them 'I have nothing to hide, you can come on in check everything. You can even check the baby that I have here. there's nothing that I have to hide my main priority is to find my baby.'"
Hernandez was in the care of her grandparents at the time of her disappearance. Her grandfather tells Fox News he took his wife to work and when he came back Jazmin was no longer there.
"The man over there has cameras. I asked him if he could do me a favor after I spoke to police if he could show me the video."
He adds that officials watched the video to proceed with the investigation.
"You can't see the license plates on the car but you can see where she gets out of the house and a car stops in front. She goes out with some luggage and gets in the car then leaves."
Her grandfather says he has had custody of his granddaughter for over 16 months, he believes she left to be with her mother.
"In the morning at 6:58 she came and took her. I don't have the license plates to her car but I'm sure she was the one that took her."
However, Jazmin's mother says her daughter isn't with her and feels her grandparents aren't doing their part to find her child. Both the mother and grandfather say all they want is for Jazmin to return home safely.
"Your house is here. Listen to me, at least send me a message so I can know that you are safe."
"I'm sorry my baby, please come back. It doesn't matter if it's to them, I don't care. I just want you to be safe, please Jazmin. I love you, mommy loves you."
If you have anyone has information regarding Jazmin's whereabouts, contact Brownsville Crime Stoppers at (956) 546-8477.

HARLINGEN — The forecast is in, and quail numbers appear to be slightly down from last year.
Quail season begins Saturday and the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department rural road surveys in the South Texas Plains indicate 10.6 quail were reported per 20-mile route this summer. Last year, the average was 14 quail sightings in South Texas.
When it comes to quail populations in South Texas, it's all about the rainfall.
Since the state came out of a serious drought in 2013, "we've had a run of some pretty good years," said Leonard Brennan, the C.C. "Charlie" Winn Endowed Chair for Quail Research at the Richard M. Kleberg Jr. Center for Quail Research at TAMU-Kingsville.
"There are areas right around Kingsville and southern Kleberg County that kind of had a tough time this summer, but then you get further south in Kenedy County and down to the Valley, and I've heard from that part of the world that it's really good.
"We've got a lot of area in South Texas that does a pretty good job of producing quail when it rains, and that's exactly what we've been seeing," Brennan added.
Statewide, 2016 was a renaissance year for quail hunting, a reminder of how good it can be when everything comes good, quail-wise.
"Specifically, weather and habitat aligned to create a 'super boom' year for quail production that led to exceptional hunts the likes of which had not been seen in many years," TPWD biologists said.
This year's quail production is expected to be adequate but not spectacular, particularly in the Valley's region of the South Texas Plains.
"Portions of South Texas and the Rolling Plains regions were in moderate drought during mid-summer, which may have negatively impacted brood survival," said Robert Perez, quail program leader with TPWD.
TPWD bases its projection on statewide quail surveys started in 1978 to monitor the bird's population. This index uses randomly-selected, 20-mile roadside surveys to determine annual quail population trends by ecological region. The information helps determine relative quail populations among the regions of Texas.
The long-term loss of habitat has been a primary factor in the decline of bobwhite and scaled quail in Texas. Up until last year's boom year, bobwhite quail populations have been declining about 5.6 percent each year and scaled quail have seen a decline of 2.9 percent annually since 1980, biologists say.
And it's not just quail.
TPWD biologists say at least 24 other grassland birds like scissor-tailed flycatchers and meadowlarks are all in serious decline, and that since 1968, these habitat-specific species have lost nearly 40 percent of their populations despite not being hunted.
The TPWD and private groups are actively involved in improving grassland habitat by planting native grasses, and much of the funding for these efforts come from hunters.
"Things have dropped off around Texas," said TAMU-Kingsville's Brennan. "We are below 100,000 quail hunters anymore these days.
"But the Rolling Plains and South Texas are two of the last great places for quail anywhere," he added.
Quail hunting season runs through Feb. 25, 2018. The daily bag limit for quail is 15, with 45 in possession. Legal shooting hours for all non-migratory game birds are 30 minutes before sunrise to 30 minutes after sunset. The bag limit is the maximum number that may be killed during the legal shooting hours in one day.

Loei is one of Thailand's best provinces for lovers of outdoor adventure, and certainly the best of all the Northeaster provinces. It has some of Thailand's highest mountains, most stunning national parks, and best trekking. Loei also has a long bank along the Mekong River, with Laos just over on the other side. Besides great natural beauty, Loei is also a great cultural destination with a number of unique customs and holidays.
Recommended for
- Nature lovers and outdoor adventure enthusiasts
- Cultural travelers
- People who like to get off the beaten path
Getting there
Loei is pretty far from everywhere else so it's either a long drive, or you can fly from Bangkok.
By car – Loei is definitely a province where having your own transportation is a huge advantage, so going by car or motorcycle is highly recommended. You can rent a car at the airport in Phitsanulok, Udon Thani, or in Loei itself. If you take a motorbike, note that Loei can be both the hottest and coldest province in Thailand depending on the time of year.
By bus – Buses go every day from Mochit Northern Bus terminal in Bangkok and take around 10 hours. Neighboring provinces will also have regular bus service to Loei.
By plane – Air Asia and Nok Air both operate a flight most days from Bangkok Don Meuang (DMK) to Loei (LOE). The schedules seem to change and there is not always a flight, so look ahead.
By train – There is no train to Loei, but you could take the Northeast Line to Udon Thani, or the Northern Line to Phitsanulok, and get a bus from either of those locations. This wouldn't be very convenient so you'd want an actual reason to stop in one of those places to do this.
Where to stay
We find our accommodation on Booking.com by first searching for the town or province and our dates, we then filter out any rooms with a score lower than 7 or 8 (depending on availability) as well as any rooms out of our budget. After this, we open the map and hover over all of the pins in the rough location we already decided we want to stay in. Hovering over the pins gives us the price for x nights plus the review score. We click on each pin to open those hotels in a new tab, review them and book our favorite.
Getting around
Loei city has tuk-tuks that are cheap and convenient. There is some bus service between Loei city and other destinations like Chiang Khan.
We had heard really great things about Robot 2029 club in the center of town. We were actually a bit disappointed but it may have just been a bad night. This is a typical Thai-style club with a house band alternating sets with a DJ. The street along here has a few good bars for drinks before the club.
Fitness & gym
Line Gym is a serious gym with all the equipment you could want, and it costs just 40 Baht per day. Loei seems to have a serious bodybuilding culture and this gym is the center of it, but everyone there is very friendly and welcoming. Plenty of cardio machines on the second floor. No aircon here but enough fans.
Getting out
Head to Phitsanulok to jump onto exploring Northern Thailand, to Udon Thani for more Issan, or south to Phetchabun Province for more mountains in Khao Kho.

We stayed at Indeco Swamimalai when we were exploring the Tamil heartland, and had the most delightful stay. Check out what made it so, and some pictures I got.
Category: Culture
Florence – The Renaissance and Dante
Dan Brown can hardly be called the most inspired or the most inspiring of authors. However, his books are my guilty pleasure (Angels and Demons are in my top ten list. Yes. I am not ashamed to admit it.), and Inferno's Florence parts were so well written, Vidya and I knew we had to go and see it for ourselves. Our time in Florence, therefore, was for all intents and purposes, in the amazing Dante Alighieri's footsteps, inspired by Dan Brown's Inferno.
Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore
We stayed in the historic town centre of Florence in a b&b that was within shouting distance of the Florence Cathedral, ordinarily called Il Duomo, the sprawling medieval building that dominates the town. The historic centre of Florence itself is a UNESCO World Heritage site, and represents the best of Renaissance architecture. The Duomo sits, huge and sprawling and beautiful and majestic and dominating, in the centre of Florence. There is no escaping it – wherever you go, there is some part of the Duomo you see. Even when you are facing completely away from it, the reflections of the Duomo look back at you mockingly. So you don't try to escape it, Instead you learn, very quickly, to accept it and revel in its massive benign presence. You make a game of it – trying to spot it from wherever you are.
Darasuram – a Temple and a Weaver
Darasuram - one time part of the capital of the mighty Chola empire - is home to the imposing and living Airavateswara temple, categorized as a World Heritage site by UNESCO. After being on our wish list for a decade and a half, it finally got ticked off last January. Here's an account of the trip, as well as a bunch of pictures. Bonus: a quick visit to a silk weaver's workshop-home!
Bengaluru – Ordinary Adventures in an Extraordinary City
I visit Bengaluru, and attend a wedding, check out a War Memorial, go looking for used books and shoot pictures from a moving autorickshaw!
Aswan – Friendly Folks, Colorful Markets and a Felucca on the Nile
We visited Aswan on the way to Abu Simbel, and had a relaxed and memorable time there. Here are a few memories and pictures from our magical trip to Egypt all those years ago.
Eating Kolkata – 10 Places to Eat in the City of Joy
Kolkata, as no doubt every single piece written about the city repeats, is full of tasty food, on the street and off it. Here are ten places we ate at, and our impressions of the experience. Overall, be prepared to add a few places to your "definitely to visit in this lifetime" list.
A Heritage Walk near the Charminar
I take a group of bloggers on a heritage walk around the Charminar. We discover a bunch of stuff about the iconic Charminar and its heritage, as well as some yummy food, the chef's ancient but still-working communications system, and of course, lots of stories!
Prince Restaurant – Hyderabad on a Plate!
An account of a visit to a typical Hyderabadi restaurant, Prince Hotel, where I get amazing chai and shawarma, and a dose of the famous Old City life and culture.
A Cup of Coffee!
Last week, Vidya and I discovered a coffee shop in Secunderabad. What's so great about that, you might ask. Prepare for a longish tale. Get a cup of coffee if you want!
We both love a cup of filter coffee to start off the day. When we first set up house in Chennai, we went through a phase of experimentation with different types of coffee until we settled on our own blend – Peaberry and Plantation A, half and half, without any chicory. This is a pure coffee, as opposed to traditional filter coffee, which has a significant amount of chicory added to it. Chicory gives a bitter edge to the taste, which we don't like. Our blend has a full-bodied taste and a heady aroma, though it is quite lacking in colour.
Gangireddhu Aattaa – Boom Boom Maadu, Andhra Style!
|From Gangireddhu
Saw this guy at Kukatpally a few days ago and asked him if I could take his picture. He was ready, and took out his pipe from his bag and posed along with his bull. He also started talking to me rapidly in Telugu, the dialect of which he spoke was so totally incomprehensible to me that I couldn't get even a single word of what he was saying. He was also going on in a very sing-song way – so there was no help even in terms of inflection or accompanying facial expression or gesture.

In 1890, Henry De Groux exhibited his 'Christ aux Outrages' during the Brussels Fair. His controversial work led to heated debate. Expelled from the group called Les Vingt or The Twenty for his affront of Van Gogh, Signac and Lautrec, De Groux adopted a provocative stance similar to Ensor's.
This painting was undoubtedly inspired by 'The Aureoles of Christ', especially 'Christ Shown to the People'. As Ensor, De Groux retained the general movement structured by light and a vivid palette. It shows at its maximum potential in the sketch drawn for the occasion.
Haunted by anxiety, Christ stares at the vanishing point of this composition, which annihilates the identity of each body to evoke, through a large blind swell, the brutishness and bestiality of a crowd, which Ensor had reduced to a weaving of light and shadow (from Michel Draguet, in 'Le Symbolisme en Belgique', Brussels, RMFAB, 2010, p. 158)

Here was the deal: my favorite roast chicken recipe is this one from Thomas Keller. (Sidebar: I'm currently in San Francisco and last night I ate at Zuni, and as I was leaving the bathroom who did I lock eyes with? Thomas Keller. Turns out he goes to the bathroom too; food gods are just like us!) The problem, though, is that the Thomas Keller roast chicken with root vegetables is an event. It requires that you use your roasting pan; it involves a shopping-cart full of turnips, rutabaga, carrots, onions, and potatoes. It's not really practical for a weeknight. As for my usual weeknight roast chicken, I'd normally wind up putting the chicken in my All-Clad metal skillet so that I could make a sauce in there afterwards (see here), roasting the vegetables separately. That was OK. Then I remembered my trusty friend the cast iron skillet. What if I did the Keller thing in there? What happened next will astound you (how's that for an UpWorthy paragraph ender?).
Skillet Cornbread
Sometimes I wake up with a specific craving that has no obvious root. For example, on Saturday morning I woke up with a craving for cornbread. Where did that come from? Was it the fact that I'd been watching the Sean Brock episodes of "Mind of a Chef" at the gym? Actually, that was probably it–strike that first sentence–because in the episode I just watched, he harvested his own corn, shocked the kernels in liquid nitrogen, and made the most incredible-looking corn grits I'd ever seen. I didn't have grits in my cupboard on Saturday morning, but I did have cornmeal, which is where this idea came from. Then all I had to do was find the right recipe.
Caramelized-Apple Skillet Cake
I had the apples, I had the butter, I had the sugar, the vanilla extract, and even the cornmeal. Jimmy was coming to dinner (see here) and, with only an hour or two to prep, I knew there had to be dessert. So I yanked down Karen DeMasco's newest book, The Craft of Baking, and followed her instructions for a caramelized-apple skillet cake.

I am 32 years old and after almost 9 years of marriage, I am now a single mom of two, with my third on the way. I've never been a girly girl, but I've also never been the one that goes around fixing things major things. I get excited over the little things I figure out on my own.
All my life I've had my Dad around to help with car repairs and various things around the house if my husband was not able to do it. I still have my Dad, but I try to not bother him TOO much.
I did something this weekend that led me to the idea of starting a series of blog posts of things that I learn now in this new stage of life as a single mom.
I hope you all enjoy and maybe get a few laughs out of my experiences.

Diabetes could happen to everyone at any time.
Actually type 1 diabetes developes up to the age of 25. The highest rate of the disease lays between the age of 8 to 12. But there also are exceptions. Babies also could get the disease, adults over the age of 25 as well. It's not medically reviewed enough but type 1 diabetes nearly always results in an autoimmun reaction.
In contrast to that, the risk of getting type 2 diabetes can be reduced by your own behaviour. A healthy nourishment, high amount of sports an avoidance of overweight reduces the danger a lot. Most type 2 diabetes patiens are elderly people, because with an older age the pancreas produces less and less insulin.

Spinone Italiano Overview
An all-Italian breed, the Spinone Italiano has been used as a gundog in Italy since ancient times. The breed is renowned for its great tracking and scenting abilities conjoined with a soft mouth for retrieval. The breed also excels in cold or wet conditions due to a protective coat. The breed is still a popular hunting dog for use throughout Italy.
Spinone Italiano Characteristics
The breed features a soft wiry coat that helps protect it from the elements. Coats come in a variety of colors with the two most common being a lemon color and a browner and liver "German Pointer" color. The breed features a blocky head and may have a beard and mustache when show groomed. Some owners keep the coat long, giving the breed an overall shaggy appearance.
Spinone Italiano Temperament
Like most gun and retrieval dogs, this dog breed is gentle, calm and loving. He can be shy, however, unless socialized with strangers and other animals. However, he is loving and affectionate toward his family, and loves children, other dogs, and other animals. As an adult, he is calm, loving but still prone to playfulness.
Spinone Italiano Care
On average, the Spinone lives 12 to 14 years, good for a large sized dog. Few health concerns are reported, however, some include cerebellar ataxia and hip dysplasia. Careful selection and testing of parents for hip dysplasia can help reduce incidence in litters and provide healthier puppies.
Spinone Italiano Coat
Their coat is extremely easy to care for and requires only weekly brushing to remove any dead or loose hairs. Professional grooming can be done to keep the beard and other feathering trimmed, however, it is not needed. The coat does well in almost any environment.
Spinone Italiano Training
Intelligent and quick to learn, the Spinone will easily pick up tasks, that is if he feels he should be learning them. The breed can be slow to perform tasks unless they feel there is a reason for their doing so. Patience and positive reinforcement will help with this, providing motivation for training.
Spinone Italiano Activity
Daily walks and jogs or other time spent outdoors will help keep the Spinone in shape. Play sessions or time in a fenced yard to "hunt" will help take care of exercise needs and keep the breed mentally stimulated.

I have meant to post this earlier, but with my computer crashing (Windows update - felt like a MAC commercial), and newborn twins it has taken me a while.
It was a heavenly Smokies day full of solitude among some of the best fishing I have experienced. While this is my second trip to the Road Prong (I'll try to get a report up for that one also 8-6-09), but it was the first time I fished from the 3rd to 4th bridges. While I immediately get hung up in a tree within sight of the bridge for others to watch and was a bit embarrased as I had got anxious to fish and didn't look around. 2 flies and $3.50 later I tied up a new neversink with a BH rubberleg prince nymph as a dropper. This has been my standard Smokies set up that has been working well and keeps me from trying lots of different flies therefore spending more time fishing. I headed up the creek and immediatly had several misses. I saw some people and decided to head up out of trail sight which gave me a chance to sneak up. After stopping every 50 feet or so to get reaquainted with this awesome enviroment I would sneak my way up the river planning a route that hit the best casting spots. I'm learning it's better to be completely stealth and miss some small pockets of water than to fish every spot. I was soon rewarded with a nice Brookie.
The fishing continued to be spectacular with my highest fish count yet in the mid thirties.
The scenery alone is worth the trip!
I continued fishing and soon landed this monster 9 inch Brookie. If someone really doesn't believe me I can post a pic next to the tape.
As I worked my way up to a nice waterfall I caught this monster rainbow in the large pool. It measured 10 inches and is the largest I have landed to date (in the park).
The colors on these Brookies are amazing. Here is a real pretty one I shot. I love the top fins
So as you can see it was one of those special Smokies days that I doubt I will ever forget. I am planning on fishing tomorrow, but unfortunately the Road Prong is CLOSED. I guess I'll have my 75th year celebration somewhere else in the Park. Anyone want to go?
Happy Fishing!

On the most recent edition of the Steve Austin Show podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Stone Cold Steve Austin discussed how WWE Universal Champion Seth Rollins can become a draw and sell more tickets for WWE events.
"Seth's a tremendous worker and I just think, man, when he turns up that entertainment factor, because he's pretty reserved on the horn. And, man, if you go back and watch my promos, I mean, I never know what I'm going to say. I mean, I have things because of storylines and that and angles, so I know where I'm going, but I'll stutter or I'll miss a word, but it's all emotion.
I think that emotions sell tickets, but also being larger than life sells tickets, so if he could just learn to amp it up a little bit, because every time I had a stick in my hands, I was trying to channel and emit energy and people feed off that."

German high-quality product, organically grown and processed.
This product is freely available in Germany and mostly worldwide and serves as a dietary supplement.
The whole plant including all its constituent parts. Especially beneficial for the immune system and the body. THC content <0.2% and therefore 100% legal in Germany, the entire EU and mostly every other country in the world. CBD is not subject to the Narcotics Act in Germany.
Due to the gentle extraction method, this is a particularly rich hemp extract with all its natural, valuable constituents.
A German product made from German organic hemp (contains less than 0.2% THC and may therefore be legally grown). No pesticides or other chemicals are used in cultivation and/or processing. 100% eco-friendly.
CBD hemp oil is a non-psychoactive dietary supplement or feel-good supplement that is made from the hemp plant (purely German organic hemp with less than 0.2% THC content). The flowers, leaves and stems contain different amounts of cannabinoids. Ingesting these active substances causes various effects. Cannabidiol (CBD for short) is one of the cannabinoids associated with a whole range of health benefits. CBD and all the substances contained in our oils are 100% legal in Germany, the EU and the rest of the world. CBD is not subject to the Narcotics Act in Germany.
All the oils are made to the same strict quality standard for us, no matter what oil you choose. Our supplier, who only makes products for us, uses only the best, naturally cultivated, industrial hemp from Germany, subject to ongoing checks, and always refrains from the use of chemicals, GMO products or additives. This means that CBD oil from cbd-kauf.de is one of the purest available on the market.
The oils are supplied in handy dropper bottles. This allows accurate and easy dosing, right to the last drop. Since the oil is 100% natural and contains no preservatives, it is best to store it in the refrigerator.
Suggested use: We recommend 5 drops, 2 times a day. Use the included pipette to trickle the oil under the tongue and keep it in the mouth for about 1 minute, as CBD is best absorbed through the oral mucus membrane. Shake well before use.
The CBD product should not be used during pregnancy or when breastfeeding. It is to be used as a dietary supplement. Shake bottle well before use.
Volume: 30 ml
Country of origin: Germany
NB: Dietary supplements are not a substitute for a well-balanced diet. Keep out of the reach of children. Store in a dark, cool, dry place. Do not exceed recommended consumption levels.
CBD and CBD oil have always been legal in Germany and throughout the EU, as well as in the most other countrys in the world. Since the THC content is below 0.2%, the oil may be freely bought and sold in Germany and the EU.

I dreamt of kisses, a chocolate wonder.
I dreamt of the wrappers of so many colors.
So many types.
So many flavours.
I wanted them all, that chocolate joy.
I woke that morning to a doorbell sound.
I went to answer and found a parcel.
I opened the box hoping for my chocolate dream.
But instead I found a sweatshirt, big and red saying I LOVE YOU.
And a cardboard box with chocolates in it. None of which were my chocolate kisses.

Dear residents,
The arms have been replaced at the front gate today. The original gates behind the arms are on a new schedule:
6 AM to 9 AM the gates will be OPEN
9 AM to 3 PM the gates will be CLOSED
3 PM to 8 PM the gates will be OPEN
8 PM to 6 AM the gates will be CLOSED
This schedule should prevent the recent incidents of contractors trying to run the arms and hitting them. Adjustments will be made as necessary.
There was also an incident today where a resident was yelling and cursing at the Envera guard over the kiosk speaker because they had a visitor behind their car they wanted let through the gates. Please be aware that the guards cannot add visitors over the gate speaker system. They can't verify the resident is who they say there are. Visitors have to be added through the phone app, computer, or by phone. The resident could have also had their guest talk to the Envera guard and have them call the resident's home. If you have any questions about adding visitors please see our web site page.

Seven years' ago Lucy Needham was sitting in a restaurant with her father looking at menu items and wondering how these compared for calorie and fat content. This triggered a brand new business idea. Through extensive research, she discovered that to obtain food nutritional analysis and create nutrition labels, food professionals had to depend on sending food samples to a laboratory, which was very slow, or using CDs or other third party consultants. CDs were hard to use and geared to nutrition specialists only. She conceived the idea of creating a cutting edge web based technological model as a solution to the food industry's problem, where the user could easily access the information via a website and produce FDA compliant food product labels and nutritional information in minutes. FoodCalc was born.
In 2005 the initial company product LabelCalc was launched, designed for small to medium-sized food manufacturers and retailers. This proved successful, business grew, and within two years two hundred food manufacturers were using LabelCalc to generate their own nutrition labels. With these developments, Lucy recognized the need to plan much more systematically for company growth and expansion. At this critical moment she came to SCORE in Santa Barbara for advice, and met counselor, George Rusznak.
"George forced me to think big. He told me I should visualize my company as creating a product to meet the needs of the entire food industry, building a brand which would meet all USDA and FDA regulatory requirements, and meeting growing consumer demand for better nutritional information. Our ongoing discussions led me to a much greater understanding of how to set goals, create a meaningful business plan and how to go about marketing my business effectively."
In 2008, George Rusznak successfully encouraged Lucy to enter the SFentrepreneur Challenge competition for new entrepreneurs. To her surprise, Lucy was voted as one of five finalists, who then each made their pitch live to a panel of three influential entrepreneurs. She won! This opened up a whole network of important contacts, including the California Restaurant Association, which wanted to work with FoodCalc and offer an exclusive deal to their members.
"After the contest last year, I was interviewed by the San Francisco Business Times and two other local publications that led to national interviews with my industry trade publications," said Lucy at the time. "My company's revenue in the past quarter tripled, making the revenue close to the amount generated from the previous full year. The contest was one of my best experiences!"
Now the food industry is changing, and food professionals are becoming much more accustomed to obtaining nutritional information using web based products. In 2007 the company launched a second, new product, MenuCalc, designed for chefs, restaurateurs, dieticians, food writers and recipe authors, to enable nutritional information for menus and recipes to be easily calculated.
Both company products have been extremely well received. LabelCalc now has an impressive client base which includes snack manufacturer Energy Club, airline food service provider Gate Gourmet, and soy yogurt producer Whole Soy & Co. MenuCalc has been utilized by top-level media, e.g. NBC's Today Show and multi-unit restaurants such as Asian Chao and Speciality's Bakery.
FoodCalc, now based in San Francisco, is now anticipating steady growth and employs five full time and two part time workers. The next stage is to set up business partnerships, to facilitate cross marketing and alliances with complementary vendors. In April 2009, FoodCalc entered into partnership with Tundra Specialities, a leading national restaurant equipment and parts supplier. Tundra will offer discounts to its customers off MenuCalc's fees. As more diners seek to make informed and healthy choices about what they eat, the services provided by MenuCalc are likely to be much in demand for the foreseeable future.
Lucy is very grateful to the ongoing assistance provided by SCORE counselor George Rusznak. "He always asked the difficult questions. He forced me to work not only IN the business but ON the business. Critically, he made me look ahead, and focus on long term development and expansion which has been so essential to our recent growth."

Kuala Lumpur: Badminton Association of Malaysia's (BAM) deputy president Datuk Seri Mohamad Norza Zakaria told Malaysian media on Monday that the National Badminton Academy stadium being built in Bukit Kiara has suffered further delays.
Zakaria told reporters the arena was scheduled to be completed by December 2016, but alleged that the construction completion date may slipped even further.
"I urged authorities such as Jabatan Kerja Raya and the Youth and Sports Ministry (KBS) to look into this matter seriously. About 30% to 34% of the academy still under construction, the December completion date is seriously in doubt," said Zakaria.
Current training facility for Malaysian badminton national team, the Stadium Juara Bukit Juara Sports Complex will be undergoing renovation and upgrading works in October in preparation for the Netball event for next year's SEA Games.
Zakaria was hoping the contractor Purata Abadi Sdn Bhd could at least finished up the 18-courts training center so that it won't have significant negative impact on the national badminton team.
"We may eventually have to come up with alternative plan B or plan C," added Zakaria.
The badminton academy was part of the RM50 million allocated during the 2013 Malaysia budget, and was intended to prepare athletes for the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Ironically, the Rio Olympics is less than 2 months away, and the construction of the badminton academy remained in limbo.
