"By more than three to one, the people who actually speak to me in the community about this are glad to see the project go ahead". Cindy Fortin is referring the to illegal development permit and ensuing arbitrary change of the Official Community Plan in Peachland to accommodate one developer for one development project on Beach Avenue.
Why should we believe this mayor about anything she claims she hears on the street, where are her facts, where is her research to make fact-based decisions, who are these people who are not committed to attending a public hearing yet anonymously approach the mayor on the street? The mayor is claiming her personal opinion as fact and letting her personal views govern this town.
She has no proof, yet continues to ignore the real numbers, and the true facts, over 75% of the population that attended or wrote submissions did not support the PeachTree development at the Jan 30 public hearing. She chooses to ignore this number, and the majority it represented.
Cindy Fortin's council has continually altered the facts to suit their needs: for Peachalnders, anything this mayor says is "fake news".

Hypocrite who dare not tell voters the truth
Which was the more offensive aspect of Ed Balls's speech to the Labour conference yesterday: his intellectually dishonest prescription for curing the woes of the British economy, or his hypocritical refusal to acknowledge his part in causing them?
Mr Balls had – or claimed he had – a masterplan for growth. The State stands to make £3billion to £4billion when the rights to operate the fourth generation of mobile phone services are auctioned, and Mr Balls promised to use the money to build 100,000 affordable homes and give first-time buyers a stamp duty holiday.
This promise typified the hypocrisy of Mr Balls's speech. He wouldn't, in all probability, become Chancellor until long after the proceeds from the 4G sale have been deployed by George Osborne.
Empty promises: If Mr Balls wishes to win the trust of the British, he must speak a little truthfulness, as well as detailing what he would do differently and how
If he wants to increase capital spending by £3billion, he has two equally destructive options – to tax an already painfully overtaxed people even more, or to borrow the money and have us live even further beyond our means.
When Labour talks about spending money, it is careful to suggest where it might come from. It knows many voters think it is profligate with their money, and seeks to pretend otherwise.
That doesn't stop the plans being dishonest or dangerous. Mr Balls also hinted that the nation's pensions savings might be used to fund infrastructure projects.
More from Simon Heffer for the Daily Mail...
- Goodbye to the man who could never admit he got it all wrong: SIMON HEFFER on how Ed Balls never shed his reputation for slipperiness and political thuggery 08/05/15
- SIMON HEFFER: Why do people STILL lionise wife-beating IRA apologist John Lennon? 06/04/15
- A monstrous slur against my friend: The allegations against Enoch Powell are lies beyond contempt, writes SIMON HEFFER 29/03/15
- SIMON HEFFER: How could any sane Labour voter not switch to the Tories? 19/03/15
- SIMON HEFFER: Ruthless, but it DID help defeat a savage foe 13/02/15
- Mr Inspiration: Feared head - then lifelong friend. SIMON HEFFER pays a heart-stirring tribute to a man who proved grammar schools really do change lives 06/02/15

- Old Heffer's Almanac 2015: Russell Brand humiliated. Germany quits the euro. And Balmoral confiscated by the Scot Nats 26/12/14
This would be another form of borrowing – with a poor return to the lender (the British public). And it would have to be paid back.
When the New Labour government of which Mr Balls was such a prominent member was in power, it just borrowed, and damned the consequences – with which we are now all having to live.
There was a time when Labour shadow chancellors used their conference speeches to outline a vision for the future of the economy. For all his faults, Gordon Brown did this in his speeches from 1994 to 1996.
That clarity and candour – notably about not increasing direct taxation and sticking to Tory public spending plans to begin with – helped Labour win the 1997 election. The departure from prudence came a little later, with Mr Balls at Mr Brown's right hand as his chief economic adviser.
Mr Balls left the Treasury in 2004 when selected for a Labour seat in West Yorkshire. By that time, the reckless spending plans of the last government, fuelled by cheap credit and a seemingly limitless money supply, were deeply entrenched – not least thanks to Mr Balls, who, with his patron, must bear a huge responsibility for the subsequent banking crisis.
Perhaps a speech to the conference faithful is neither the time nor the place for Mr Balls to admit his conspicuous part in our economic downfall. What his audience expected yesterday – and what it got – was a series of assertions about how the mess we are in is, in fact, all George Osborne's and David Cameron's fault.
Having his cake and eating it: Mr Balls, pictured with Ed Miliband, said yesterday that he could not commit himself to spending promises because he could not be sure of what sort of mess he might inherit
Misleading: Mr Balls claims that he will aim to lull the middle classes - who have mostly deserted his party - into believing he would act with economic responsibility
I hold no torch for either the Chancellor or the Prime Minister. Their failure to cut spending and taxes more deeply has made our recovery slower and more uncertain than it needed to be. But for Mr Balls to imply that the crisis is down to them is, even by his standards, outrageous.
If Mr Balls wishes to win the trust of the British people as a potential Chancellor – and, my word, that is a tall order – a little truthfulness, as well as detailing what he would do differently and how, would be most welcome.
Mr Balls should also admit that had Labour somehow managed to win in 2010, any Chancellor who did not cut the deficit, borrowing and spending as the Coalition sought to do would have been driven out of his job by the financial markets within weeks.
Having his cake and eating it, Mr Balls said yesterday that he could not commit himself to spending promises (except, it seems, his house-building plans) because he could not be sure of what sort of mess he might inherit.
He can be sure it will be less of a mess than the Coalition inherited from him and his Labour chums.
By refusing to come clean, Mr Balls not only maintains the hopes of Labour voters that there will be another spending splurge, he also aims to lull the middle classes – who have mostly deserted his party – into believing he would act with economic responsibility.
If he understands the need to cut spending further, because Britain is still spending far too much, he should clearly say so. On the other hand, if he really thinks we need less austerity, he should specify how much more he would spend – and where, in 2015-16, he would find the money.
We are constantly told how clever Mr Balls is, so he should be able to grasp such points and give clear answers. But he won't.
He says Labour would make different choices to the Coalition about how it spends public money. In what way? 'A fairer and more balanced way,' says Mr Balls. But what does that mean? And fair to whom?
The bitter irony is that, privately, Labour insiders say Messrs Miliband and Balls recognise the need to be 'disciplined' about spending should they win power. They cannot say this now, apparently, because it would run counter to their hollow but relentless argument that the Coalition's so-called austerity policies are far too severe.
Mr Balls is no stranger to such hypocrisy. He had a reputation for it before the last election, which was partly why he very nearly was not re-elected as an MP (his majority was a mere 1,121 votes in what had been thought a safe Labour seat).

Cake 101
She found a picture of a whimsical cake online that she wanted to make and so she got started. She made 3 circular almond cakes and then proceeded to teach herself how to make fondant. She got to play with lots of bright colors. The fondant actually reminds me of an edible playdough!!
So, after lots of coloring; kneading; rolling; and circle cutting of the fondant, she had created this happy cake!!! Just in time to celebrate her birthday tomorrow!! Happy Birthday K!!! (Thanks for making your own cake!!!!!)
I spent part of the day cleaning out the refrigerator. It had gotten fairly neglected over these past couple of weeks. (Found several 'science experiments' as we like to call them....) I also found these 3 containers of sour cream. (All pretty much full). Now the funny thing is, none of us really LIKE sour cream!! Their existence is still a bit of a mystery to me!
Also spent a bit of time on the hammock today with Sophie. (Was trying to catch up on a little sleep after going to the midnight showing of Harry Potter last night!). Sophie has learned that she needs a person on the hammock to make it possible to be on there. Quite the entertainment watching her attempt to get on the hammock by herself. Probably could win some kind of award on some funny video show.
We have had some beautiful sunny days here recently and hope they continue. I love to feel the warmth on my face.
Until Next Time....

Are you starting to collect sour cream like Sheri collects chicken breast??? Maybe you bought them for a recipe.
My verification word was bibil kind of looked like bible so I thought I would share. Take care.
Love the cake! Whimsical!
Hope you kept that sour cream! One of my favorite cookie recipes uses sour cream.
We call them raisin cookies, but they're really a sugar cookie, and good without the raisins.
Raisin Cookies
1/4 cup butter or oleo
1 egg
2 cups sugar
Cream those ingredients together until light and fluffy.
3 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
Sift these ingredients together.
1 cup sour cream
2 cups raisins
Mix creamed mixture and remaining ingredients. Stir well. Drop by spoonfuls on un-greased cookie sheet. (Sprinkle with sugar if desired. (Definitely not needed!)) Bake 15 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Yields about 3 dozen (that is what the recipe says - it never makes that many for me!)
You could also use some of that sour cream for stroganoff, either beef or hamburger.
Happy Birthday to K!
Hope things are going better for the family now.

What a wonderful cake. Love the original design. Left overs are always welcome! Bet you there were none.
Sofie is a hoot. Keep the camera at the ready as she gets it in her head to get in the hammock by herself.

I had purchased a Coolpad Note 5 on 16th January 2017.
Within few days of purchase I started facing the following problems with the phone -
1. During a call I am not able to hear the other persons voice.
2. I am not able to receive the call by swiping.
3. If the phone is switched off and then re-started, multiple icons of the apps are created. The number of times the phone is switched off and then re-started, that many number of icons are created.
4. Call drop
Facing the above problems I visited the service centre at. They told that there is a problem with the mic and the touch screen and they will format and do a software update. They took about 10 days to repair the phone. I got the phone back and the very same day I started facing the same problems.
So I called the customer care (highly irresponsible) from the service centre itself and told them about the above issue and asked for a replacement or refund. However, they told me to give it back to the service centre and the the senior person on the line gave instructions to the engineer at the service centre. He also told me to mail the issue to email@example.com and after mailing I got the following reply -
"Dear Customer,
Apologized for inconvenience, As reference your email, We would like to request you please visit again at same service center and submit your handset for further resolution, We would also like to request you please share your handset complaint number after submit the handset."
Now, I have to spend Rs. 200 on travelling on every visit after already having spent Rs. 11,000 for the phone. Still I went to the service centre again they kept it for 10 days and now again the same problems are occuring.

WCW Legends 'Diamond' Dallas Page and Sting discussed WCW's very first episode of Nitro (September 4, 1995), which saw Lex Luger appear on WCW TV one night after his WWE contract expired as well as the beginning of the Monday Night Wars during their episode of Table for 3 on the WWE Network. Here is what the men had to say about that episode:
Sting: "It wasn't until that very first show in Minneapolis [Minnesota], we talked about it, we saw, 'wait a minute, something that has never happened here is happening now'. And you could kind of feel this real strong movement and, man, it just kept on growing. Kevin [Nash] came, Scott [Hall] came, Lex came first, and, man, now all of a sudden, you know, 'okay, we're winning every week now'."
DDP: "I can remember Bischoff going, 'we're going to win! We're going to beat [Vince McMahon]! We're going to be the number one company!' and that just shows you about manifesting a dream into reality."

Audi e-tron Sportback Concept, Production Set For 2019 – Live Photos, Videos
Audi unveiled the e-tron Sportback concept from Shanghai, a vehicle which in two years will enter production (2019), as the second all-electric e-tron offering after quattro SUV that is released next year.
The latest concept is based on the same powertrain, with a 95 kWh battery pack that provides 500 km/310 miles+ of range (NEDC – so think ~400 km/250 miles of real world driving).
The e-tron Sportback is propelled via a three-motor all-wheel-drive configuration (one for the front axle and two for the independent rear wheels propulsion).
With up to 370 kW of power and 0-62 mph (100 km/h) time of 4.5 seconds, it's a damn quick car.
The new e-tron is also the first with Audi's new design language, one that we find very attractive over the outgoing style.
Below: Here we have set of live photos and videos from its launch to check out!

It looks like they are trying very hard!
Music lights etc!
Looks like a refresh of the Accord Crosstour, a car almost universally derided as ungainly and ugly. I guess Honda was just ahead of its time, much like the Pontiac Aztec.
That said, more electric choices are always good. Someone will like this and buy it for the looks, not just because it's electric, and another electric convert will be created.
This is exactly what I was going to say. the more the merrier but I just don't get this car.
Remember this is a concept so the production car will look different…hopefully a better looking one.
I don't get why this site is quite happy with Tesla stating they get 302 miles from a 90D, but when Audi says it will get 310 from a 95kwh pack it gets downgraded to 250mile range. We know the bolt gets this from a 60kwh pack and that the Tesla Miles work out OK, so why the Audi bashing bias?
They are convwrting the numbers from Europes overly optiomistic driving cycle to the more realistic EPA driving cycle…
The writers of this site generaly dont bash anything but half the commentors here bash anythin non Tesla…
It is not Audi bias, it is a general (unrealistic) NEDC to (realistic) EPA conversion.
If you want actual numbers you will have to wait.
But he is kind of right, 95kWh should mean more than 250 miles. The Model X 90D, which has 85.8 kWh total capacity, has 257 miles of range. So the Audi should have more than 250 miles of range.
Looks actually quit good. But for me personally it appears to be very big. Not very suitable for my lifestyle. But I could be wrong. Nonetheless it's good to see all those cars in the next two years. But Audi has to do this to fulfill European laws concerning emissions. They're way to high today and they have to reduce them significantly.
How much? Electric cars are starting to get the same stigma that home solar had some years ago.
A way for wealthy people to save money.
Yay! I-Pace competitor.
I consider this car only slightly more likely to come out than the FF91.
Don't expect that the production version will look like this. This is still the concept car.
And still no word about the price. I guess they don't want to everyone off yet.
I guess they don't want to scare everyone off yet (comment editing button could be usefull for some of us).

FOR ARTISTs/PRODUCERS- ABOUT THE CLOUD
Box O' Clox Music Publishing Company (ASCAP) has gone out on a musical limb with the launch of this cloud of our 30 year-old songwriting library. Access to the cloud will be provided to those who are presently seeking songs to record. A registration form will be required before the access code/password is released to you. The songs will be sample MP3s and not for download. We can communicate any changes or needs that you may have and work with you until project is complete. We do not think this has ever been done by songwriters or music publishers. We are going to lay out our wares, warts and all---meaning from home demos to unreleased masters, for artists, producers and record companies to sample our songs. An added bonus as indicated on the "about" page is that we will also custom write any song that is in the library--with Christian/Gospel/Inspirational theme lyrics---the melodies are timeless, we believe, so there would not be a need to change the music. We want to redeem our songs--from secular to Christian the same way God redeemed us when we were Saved (Born Again). We can also provide the lead/sheet music and arrange/orchestrate for any size production. We want your help in our effort to reach the lost through music. Partner with us. If not, help your church worship team, DO SOMETHING--help Christian artists by buying music (rather than streaming or sharing). Don't rip (off) music. God bless you all.

Using Technology to Enable an Effective Skill Ecosystem
Indian Government has set an ambitious target for skill development to meet its requirement of skilled labour by the year 2022. To achieve this target, a formal skill development structure has been laid down that begins with mobilization of candidates followed by counselling, leading to training and then onto assessment, certification, placement, and monitoring and tracking. However, the rich diversity of the country, cross-cultural differences, local languages, skilling not being considered aspirational, lack of transparency, inadequate training infrastructure etc. are some issues that have made the effective implementation of these processes challenging. It has been felt and widely discussed across platforms that right and appropriate use of technology could help in overcoming most of these challenges and provide a required impetus to Skill India Mission. For example, a technology platform that tracks assessors – their skills set in terms of trades, local language, proximity to assessment centres, and qualification to assess – could help map the appropriate assessment opportunity to an ideal assessor. Similarly, use of 3D animation and virtual reality to facilitate the online delivery of manufacturing training courses could help overcome accessibility and credibility related issues widely prevalent in the classroom training model. A fully-networked platform and a standardized framework could help all skills centres spread across country to effectively communicate with one another and help dynamically aggregate and enable cross-dimensional views of information, in real-time. With the workforce of today spread out across the country, and migration being all-time high in recent years, what is needed is a system that can help service students in any of the centres, and a service that is available to several industries.
With this aim to discuss how technology can be the wheels of skill development initiative, we believe it will also help to scale, speed and bring transparency in the implementation. We think that with technology we can make the program more affordable and acceptable which will directly reflect in enrolments and placements moving forward.
Workshop Objectives
- Understanding of current technologies used in the skilling ecosystem and how they can be leveraged in trainings across multiple sectors
- Learning of new technologies that could be utilized for improvements across the skilling value chain
- Identify best-of-breed technologies and applications in each sub-process of skilling value chain
- Steps for taking the agreed agenda forward from the workshop
Anticipated Outcome of the Workshop
- Identification of technologies that could be quickly implemented for improvements in the skilling value chain
- Roadmap for technology adoption with defined responsibility of each stakeholder
We request the players working in the below mentioned pillar of skill development implementation to submit their application only if the entire solution/offerings are based on technology considering the various existing government schemes.
- The applicant company should have atleast one solution across any process of the skilling value chain, i.e., skills advocacy and promotion, youth mobilization and counselling, content digitization & online skills delivery, skill delivery in classrooms & labs, assessment & certification process, job demand aggregation and placement facilitation, monitoring and tracking, student skill lifecycle management or any other category relevant to skills
- After evaluation of all application forms, 8-10 companies would be selected across each process of the skilling value chain
- The selected companies would be invited to present their offerings at the National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC) office
- 3 companies would be selected across each process mentioned above by the expert panel at NSDC
- The 3 companies selected across each process would be invited to attend the workshop and present their solution to audience represented by Ministryof Skill Development and Entrepreneurship (MSDE), NSDC, Sector Skill Councils (SSCs) and Training Partners
- The company giving best technology demonstration would be felicitated at the formal event.

SAMSUNG QE49Q7FAM 49" Smart 4K Ultra HD HDR QLED TV + UBD-M9000 Smart 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Player with 4K Ultra HD Upscaling - £1169.10 @ Curry's
Lowest price this has been anywhere. I have been tracking it for a few weeks now.
Comes with a free 4k blu ray player Samsung UBD-M9000 + Planet Earth II and Everest Blu Ray. Personally I would have no need for these. I looked on eBay and I would be confident of clearing £140-£150 for the player+blu rays.
Topcashback also advertises £70 cash back on TV's over £1000. However having just ordered, it tracked at £8.12. Guessing this is because I used a voucher. Better than nothing still!
As far as I can tell it comes with a 5 year warranty. Its advertised on the TV listing alone, but not on the bundle listing. I have rang Currys previously to ask this and they said they do indeed offer the 5 year warranty on the QLED models.
All in all taking into account the Blu Ray player value this ends up being just over a grand. Half what its initial RRP was.
No doubt the comments will be this is not as good as OLED and money is better spent on the LG 55 B/C7 models - but they are £500 more than this. So its all relative really.

June 10, 2017, DUBAI UAE: The PSA Dubai World Series Finals semi-finals served up all the drama usually expected on an Opera House stage tonight, as the players fought it out for a place in the final of the lucrative season-ending squash extravaganza.
And it will be two England – Egypt finals as defending champion Laura Massaro will meet World Champion Nour El Sherbini in the women's final, and James Willstrop will play Mohamed ElShorbagy for the men's title.
El Sherbini was the first player through to the finals after defeating World number three Camille Serme in a dramatic clash. El Sherbini will compete in the finals for the first time in her career despite suffering a hand injury in the third and final game.
Serme prevailed in a nail-biting opener as she recovered from a blistering start from El Sherbini to overturn three game balls, ultimately taking it 17-15, but it was all El Sherbini in the second game as she levelled the scores for the loss of three points. Leading 4-3 in the third she lost her footing and landed awkwardly on her right hand, forcing her to take an injury break to have it strapped up.
El Sherbini battled on and when Serme held two match balls it looked to be all over, but she refused to give in and forced a tie-break. She then converted a match ball to become only the second Egyptian woman ever to reach the final of this competition.
"I thought that I was going to retire from the match because I couldn't hold the racquet," said El Sherbini.
"But I thought that I should go on and try and I think that it's the reason I won. Because of my hand I was just thinking that I wanted to finish the points, so I attacked on every point and every opportunity.
"It's a big thing for me to reach the final of the World Series Finals, it's very special and I'm very glad to be in the final."
El Sherbini will meet defending champion Laura Massaro in the final after Massaro survived two match balls to triumph over World Junior champion Nouran Gohar, and in doing so reached the final of the World Series Finals for the third time in succession.
The 33-year-old squandered four game balls in the first game to hand the lead to Gohar and from there the 19-year-old looked destined to make it an Egyptian double in the final. However Massaro, one of the most mentally strong players on the PSA World Tour, dug into her energy reserves to take the next four points in a row as she set up a deciding third game.
A confident start from the World No.4 saw her march ahead to a 9-3 lead in the third and she resisted a late fightback from Gohar to earn her place in the final once more.
"Saving two match balls is brilliant and I'm really proud of myself, but I'm also really annoyed that I let three game balls in the first go," said Massaro, whose match finished past midnight.
"It's a tough situation for us both, it's really late and even though you get up late and do everything you can to recover, your body clock says that you should be in bed and not warming up for a squash match. Overall, I just need to let it sink in, but I'm really happy to be through for tomorrow."
England will also be represented in the finals by former World No.1 James Willstrop, who reached the showpiece finale for the first time in his 17-year career after putting in a superb performance to halt World Champion Karim Abdel Gawad.
The 33-year-old was in full flow as he showcased a series of impressive shots from his extensive repertoire to prevail 14-12 in the opening game tie-break.
Gawad continued to push the Englishman hard in the second, but Willstrop closed it out 11-6 to claim his place in the final of the season-ending tournament where he will play Egypt's Mohamed ElShorbagy.
"Before I qualified I wanted to be here desperately and there's all sorts of motivations here. Once I got there I was really focused on it. I had other tournaments to play, but this was the big finale and I've eyed it up certainly" said Willstrop.
Willstrop will meet former world number one Mohamed Elshorbagy in the final, after the Egyptian survived a huge scare to sneak past Germany's Simon Rosner.
The Bristol-based Egyptian was the dominant force on the Men's Tour last season and captured eight titles, but has suffered a disappointing season by his own standards and he lost his World No.1 spot in April. He has shown signs of being back to his best though in Dubai, with a 100 per cent record in Group B seeing him beat World No.1 Gregory Gaultier, World No.5 Ali Farag and World No.6 James Willstrop.
However, an inspired Rösner came within a single point of sending the 26-year-old out after he edged the opening game 11-9 and stormed into an 8-4 lead in the second. But ElShorbagy fought tooth and nail to stay in the tournament, and surged back at Rösner to take seven points in a row, with each winner being greeted with a fist pump and an almighty roar.
Rösner refused to be beaten and hit a number of superb winners build up match balls on two separate occasions, only to see ElShorbagy claw the points back both times before converting on his first match ball to seal a final spot against Willstrop.
"I just fought and didn't give up," said ElShorbagy.
"I just kept fighting and fighting. He had the lead, he was 1-0 up and playing amazing squash. In a best of three he plays at an even quicker pace which makes him way more dangerous. I knew it was going to be a tough battle and he played even better than I thought. I don't think I've ever seen him play like that.
"This is only my third final this season and my first since November. Two weeks ago, I got my motivation back, something clicked and I told myself that I wasn't born to lose in the quarter-finals or semis.
"I'm born for these kind of matches and these kind of moments and I don't accept myself being in another position. There is the golden generation of [Amr] Shabana, Nick [Matthew], Greg [Gaultier], James, [Karim] Darwish and [Thierry Lincou].
"I've played against each one in a final before and I will always remember each final I've played against the guys because they taught me how to play the game. The only one I haven't played in a final is James, so it's such an honour to be in the final with him."

The poetry of Sylvia Plath (1932-1963) never fails to impress. Lazarus and Daddy are household names in poetics, and the entire book Ariel counts as a masterpiece. Here I read 'Morning song' and, as usual, give an interpretation that is deliberately not informed, or impaired by too much theoretical study.
Morning song
Love set you going like a fat gold watch.
The midwife slapped your footsoles, and your bald cry
Took its place among the elements.
Our voices echo, magnifying your arrival. New statue.
In a drafty museum, your nakedness
Shadows our safety. We stand round blankly as walls.
I'm no more your mother
Than the cloud that distills a mirror to reflect its own slow
Effacement at the wind's hand.
All night your moth-breath
Flickers among the flat pink roses. I wake to listen:
A far sea moves in my ear.
One cry, and I stumble from bed, cow-heavy and floral
In my Victorian nightgown.
Your mouth opens clean as a cat's. The window square
Whitens and swallows its dull stars. And now you try
Your handful of notes;
The clear vowels rise like balloons.
We compare the infant to a chubby gold watch that is slapped on the foodsoles to run smoothly on the love it is fed. For the parents, the baby becomes an element, a statue. Bald and naked, vulnerable it shadows their safety (they provide safety to the infant). The parents are blank walls on which the arrival of the newborn throws its shadows.
The next lines are a little bit too cryptic to my taste, and am turned off by overuse of mirrors in poetry. Effacement: shortening of the uterine cervix as well as withdrawing into the background. Sylvia is a cloud that dissolves into tin air, raining some pretty words down before she goes (gasses herself).
Okay, flickering moth-breath and flat pink roses, that's good stuff. Now the mother hears the breath of her baby as the sound of a far sea, did the child set her free? When she gets up at night to breastfeed her child, however, the dull stars in the window are swallowed. The baby's mouth is clean and the sound of his morning soung is clear. Does Plath feel the atmosphere sterile? Or is motherhood precisely her liberation and nursing her child following the call of the far sea?

Luxurious Fillet of Beef Pasta Dish
As you might have notiched by now, I make a lot of pasta dishes. A lot. I just love pasta, it's so versatile and you can have any protein you want with it and any kind of sauce too. Whenever I get asked what my favourite food is, I answer pasta - I can't decide if there is any particular pasta dish I like more than the other so I just keep it simple, anything with pasta (well, almost anything). On Sunday 9.oktober it was Fathers Day here in Sweden, and since it's my love's first Fathers Day it was only proper to give him a good and manly pasta dish (he loves pasta just as much as me - thank god) to celebrate the day. We bought a good piece of fillet of beef - organic and localy produced of course, and I just came up with the pasta dish in my head at the store since I seriously couldn't think of anything before we entered the store . Hate it when my brain gets food blockage, when I can't think of anything to cook or bake. That's been happening a lot since the baby came - must be because with a baby in our life now, sleep doesn't come as easily an thus the brain doesn't work as well as before. This is basically what goes through my head during the day "feed baby, change baby, feed baby, put baby to sleep, adore baby, watch baby, crap - I need to blog, feed baby, soooo tired, what's for dinner?, change baby, feed baby, put baby to sleep". Not complaining though,wouldn't change it for anything.
Anyway, here's my recipe for a Luxurious Pasta dish.
- 250 g mushrooms, sliced
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, finely diced
- 400 g fillet of beef, diced and room temperatured
- 1 chili, finely diced
- 25 g butter
- 4 dl cream
- salt & pepper
- 2,5 dl beef stock
- 2 tsp marjoram (dried or fresh, use what you have in your pantry)
- 1 dl pasta water
- Bowtie pasta
- Olive oil
- Parmesan cheese
How to:
- In a frying pan on medium-high heat, fry mushrooms in butter until softened and lightly browned. Set aside.
- Bring salted water to a boil and cook the pasta according to the instructions on the package.
- In a medium sauce pan on medium-high heat, fry the beef in olive oil until all the sides have gotten lightly brown. Then add the onion, garlic and chili and fry for about 2 minutes, until the onion has softened a bit. Add the cream, salt & pepper (I used about 1+ tsp of each), beef stock, marjoram, pasta water and mushrooms. Let everything cook together for about 5-6 minutes, make sure you stir maybe 2-3 times so nothing burns to the bottom.
- Mix the sauce and pasta in a big bowl. Serve with grated parmesan cheese and red wine to drink

Gerakan vice-president Huan Cheng Guan will have to explain his critical statement against the party leadership.
Gerakan secretary-general Teng Chang Yeow said the party's central working committee (CWC), which met last night, viewed the matter seriously and decided to issue a show-cause letter, three days after Huan expressed his dissatisfaction with the top leadership and intention to resign from the party.
"While respecting Huan's right to express his views, the CWC viewed his recent media statements, particularly those ridiculing the party in the vernacular press, as having gone overboard and had badly tarnished the party's image.
"His action had caused dissension and division in the party, which is unacceptable to the CWC," Teng said in a statement Monday.
Teng said that even though the party had not received any notification of resignation from Huan, he had already made known his intention through his statement in the media.
The party's constitution required a member who wished to resign to give 30 days' notice in writing to his branch secretary with a copy to the CWC through its secretary-general, he said.
"As such, the CWC has decided that disciplinary action be instituted against him in accordance with the provisions of the party's constitution," he said.
Huan, when contacted, said he had not received any show-cause letter as yet.
"Wait until I receive it. I have to see the contents first," he said.

I just finished my semester long internship at Melville Comprehensive School this past winter. I can safely say time management was an issue for most interns and one of my most utilized technology tools was dropbox. I used dropbox exclusively for syncing files (lesson plans, unit plans, resources found on the internet). In order for this blog post to be more useful for teachers, I have done some research and playing around in the past few weeks, trying to figure out what else one could do with this program. Here is a list of the most helpful things dropbox can provide:
#1 Syncing Folders
Dropbox is essentially a platform where you can backup all your folders online so it can be viewed from any computer or device (I have dropbox on my cellphone, work computer, and laptop). Gone are the days when you forget a sheet at home and have to "wing it" to get through the day. Simply upload folders on dropbox and access them from any computer. I would say this feature alone saved me many headaches from the whirlwind of internship. Students can also sync folders and do assignments so they can access them on school and home computers.
#2 Going Green
Dropbox will help make your classroom paperless because the program allows you to share documents with others. Students would be able to access documents (PPT, hand-outs, syllabus) you put in the shared folder. **Please keep in mind that sharing a folder also allows students to add, edit and delete content** My understanding is that there is no option to change this privilege. Students having the capability to add content can be good because you can create folders that allow students to hand in assignments paperless.
#3 Organization
Dropbox allows you to organize your content in an efficient way. You will have way less paper if students add finished work to folders that you create. In addition, you are allowed to create as many folders as you want. Some of the folders I have right now are: Internship, Lesson Plans, and University of Regina. This gives me quick and easy access to the content I create or find.
#4 Engagement
Student: "Woooahhhh, man… you, like, know how to use dropbox?" Even something as simple as dropbox can help student engagement for the classroom. The majority of kids are all about technology these days and showing you can embrace these changes may help students feel engaged. Dropbox creates an online community for the classroom, where sharing and collaboration are encouraged.
#5 Formative Assessments
Some students do not like asking questions in class when they do not understand something. Dropbox can be used to create a shared file allowing students to ask questions anonymously. Teachers can adapt their instruction, based on these questions, to ensure students gain a better understanding of the content and do not fall behind.
