Bread is a staple food prepared by baking a dough of flour and water. It is popular around the world and is one of the world's oldest foods. The virtually infinite combinations of different flours, and differing proportions of ingredients, has resulted in the wide variety of types, shapes, sizes, and textures available around the world. It may be leavened by a number of different processes ranging from the use of naturally-occurring microbes to high-pressure artificial aeration during preparation and/or baking, or may be left unleavened. A wide variety of additives may be used, from fruits and nuts to various fats, to chemical additives designed to improve flavour, texture, colour, and/or shelf life. Bread may be served in different forms at any meal of the day, eaten as a snack, and is even used as an ingredient in other culinary preparations. As a basic food worldwide, bread has come to take on significance beyond mere nutrition, evolving into a fixture in religious rituals, secular cultural life, and language.

text: GOSHEN -- Luisa Dutchersmith wears three pairs of pants just for fun, but it doesn't stop her from dancing. She hops across the living room floor and up the stairs to add to her ensemble. The 4-year-old may be the youngest Dutchersmith, but she's anxious to prove she belongs in the family business. Her father, Kent, is the founder of Kentucky T. Dutchersmith and The Rubber Band. Her mother, Teresa, sings alongside him; and her older sister, Magdalena, broke the band's kid barrier five years ago. "When I first started performing, Magdalena didn't want to be left out," Kent says. "She was 2 and she would be dancing and stealing the show. Once the first kid is in the band, the next kid is sure to follow." Kentucky T. Dutchersmith and The Rubber Band is every bit a family endeavor. Brian Kruschwitz plays guitar. His wife, LuAnne Harley, and their 3-year-old, Harley Kruschwitz, add vocals. The couple also have a son, Owen, who's almost 2. Deron Brill Bergstresser plays drums, and his wife, Annette, is the band's photographer and artistic consultant. Alina Brill Bergstesser is the newest family member at 8 months old.Alina and Owen haven't made it onstage just yet, but that's only a matter of time. "They're our roadies," Kent says. The Goshen-based band has found an audience using simple melodies and goofy lyrics. Margot Zahner of Goshen and sons Silas, 3, and Zachariah, 6, count themselves among the band's devoted following. "There's something really generous about their music," Zahner says. "It kind of sounds hokey, but there's a love that comes through." The Zahners were among the nearly 600 people to attend the band's Jan. 28 concert at Goshen College's Sauder Concert Hall. Rooted in American folk, with a touch of the blues, the band's upbeat melodies seem to capture the whimsical nature of childhood. Children clap. Parents sing along. There's toe-tapping and twirling, giggles and smiles, as the stage energy washes over the audience during their live shows. Deb Kauffman, associate director of Goshen College's Music Center, arranged last week's event after approaching Kent, who by day is a music teacher in the Goshen Community Schools system, to teach some short-term courses. "I thought it was great," Kauffman says. "Their music has catchy rhythms and melodies, but it's also the entertainment and style." The three Goshen families met at Faith Mennonite Church there. Deron, Brian and Kent started to accompany the congregation's singing. "We all belong to a small church," Kent says, "and musicians tend to seek each other out." But Kent had another project in mind. "As a parent and teacher, I've heard enough annoying kids music out there that I wanted to do something a little different," he says. Kent enlisted Brian and Deron to collaborate on a children's music CD, and Kentucky T. Dutchersmith and The Rubber Band was formed. The group released an independent CD, "Mama Don't Allow No Nose Flute Playin' 'Round Here," in 2004. Aside from the title track, the 15-song project includes such fan favorites as "I'm Bored" and "Bad Hair Day." " 'Bad Hair Day' has been ground to a fine dust in our house because we play it so much," Zahner says. Kent's songs often focus on everyday situations, such as his affection for Goshen's farmers market, and a Sunday morning spent making waffles. "One morning we were making waffles and I just started singing 'If you're feeling awful, why not make some waffles,' " he says. "Magdalena broke in with another part, and it was cracking me up." That collaboration turned into two new songs. "Waffle Time" and "Active Listener," both of which made their second CD, "If You're Not Goin' Far," released last week. "As a musician I could have done the bar scene," Kent says, "but if I ever wanted to spend time with my family, I needed to involve them in my music." That choice has brought all three families closer. "I don't think it's easy for some families to have fun together," Teresa says. "We've sung together for a long time, at church, at festivals. We obviously enjoy creating music together." Especially when Kent brings out his favorite instrument -- the nose flute. The simple contraption goes into the nostrils and over the lips, leaving a small hole where air flows through. "It's kind of marked me," Kent says. "But no one else is doing it." During performances, he uses a rubber band to keep the instrument in place while he plays bass. "It's kind of a Bob Dylan thing," he says. "It's all a little off-the-wall, but kids like off-the-wall. They like to tap into creative wackiness." Luisa returns to the living room. She's added a green vest and two fleece jackets to her three pairs of pants. "L-u-i-s-a!" Magdalena says. Creative wackiness runs in the family. Staff Writer Jeremy D. Bonfiglio: email@example.com (574) 235-6244

Postal reform has to both serve the citizens of the United States both in urban areas and the most rural parts of the Great Plains and Appalachia. It must also ensure that business customers that now generate 90% of mail volume will continue to see the Postal Service as an attractive delivery service in 5 and ten years. These four individuals who have limited understanding of the details of the Postal Service's problems identify three critical elements that have to be part of any postal reform that ensures both universal service and the Postal Service's survival as a self-sufficient entity. They are:
- Profit must be an explicit goal for organization and profit must reflect a sufficient operating margin to ensure cash is generated to make capital investments needed to improve service once the current financial difficulties pass. There is no excuse for the Postal Service to be the only large national post suffering major losses in the Euro Zone, North America, and Oceana and Australia.
- The Postal Service has to be granted significant relief from both Congressional and Postal Regulatory Commission oversight. To the extent that either law or regulatory precedent freezes the status quo and prevents market-based pricing and market-based service quality that law and those regulations must be removed. In particular both restrictions on distance based and regional pricing for commercial mailers need to be lifted in order to develop market-based and not cost-based prices.
- Transition of the Postal Service to an entity that operates under standard corporate business, employment, and contract law must occur within a reasonable period. During this period, the privatization of the Postal Service as a public utility providing delivery services must be examined serious.

All too frequently missing from contemporary thinking is the right context. Beginning from misplaced or even incorrect premises will not lead to the best conclusion. Inaccurate terminology and misleading metaphors and synecdoche usually lead to misplaced emphasis and much foolishness. This often is deliberate on the part of politicos and journalists eager to sway opinion.
The higher the airplane, the larger the extent of land one can see. This metaphor can stand for providing a proper context. I propose to offer commentary from 10,000 feet – as high as I can attain without Icarus-like hubris. The conspectus from 30,000 feet is for those who have spent a lifetime pondering the permanent things. I propose to do this at irregular intervals treating several topics concisely without numbers, notes, or hyperlinks. A hat tip to the great Thomas Sowell, who called his columns like this Random Thoughts.
One. Words matter. The current health-care bill, known as AHCA, is not about health care. It is about insurance. In a twisted instance of synecdoche insurance is used to represent the medical industry generally and one's ability to receive proper care. If the debate were about health care generally, the debate would center on:
- Increasing the supply of physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants
- Reforming the FDA so that new miracle drugs come to market sooner and at lower cost
- Removing government regulation so that a truly competitive marketplace can minimize cost and deliver better service
- Ways to prevent mass disruption as government steps out of the medical business – perhaps starting with incentives for insurers to provide inexpensive catastrophic insurance for all
- Bringing transparency in pricing so that aspirin in a hospital is not billed at hundreds of dollars and people can make choices informed by price
- Equalizing the individual and group insurance markets by eliminating the deductibility of employer-provided health insurance and reducing income taxes to compensate
The health-care bill is principally about reforming the individual health insurance market and Medicaid. It only slows down the deplorable trend of shifting insurance from the state level to the Federal. Avik Roy warns us that eliminating the ObamaCare surtaxes on the "rich" will open Republicans to withering Democrat attacks in 2018. Senator Cotton that unless the replacement legislation lowers the costs of premiums and deductibles Democrat attacks will hit home.
Two. The current health-care bill must be limited in scope, otherwise the Senate parliamentarian will not permit it to be voted on via budget reconciliation rules. Senator Cruz reminds us that since ObamaCare was passed by the Senate through reconciliation, so can its repeal and replacement. He also states what should be obvious, that the Senate Parliamentarian has an advisory status only. Her opinion can be overridden by the Presiding Officer, Vice President Pence. This is a lame excuse to justify a pusillanimous bill.
I suspect that many House Republicans are not as opposed to big government 'solutions' as those of us in fly-over country. Representative Ryan in particular is very squishy on amnesty and has a wonky interest in making big government more efficient, not necessarily smaller.
Three. Two examples of manipulation via synecdoche. Arts funding. In the debate about Federal funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and the arts, journalists and commentators love to wave their magic tongues and pronounce that since funding for defense is so large surely we can afford a tiny fraction of that amount for "the arts." But "the arts" stands for all the myriad tiny expenditures that together amount to a whale-sized chunk of Federal spending. Government programs are the closest things to immortality. (Pres. Reagan)
Prevailing wage is another notable example. A group claiming to represent veterans is airing advertisements urging the state not to repeal its prevailing wage laws. These laws significantly increase the cost of labor in construction and harm state and local governments and school districts.It represents a transfer of money from taxpayers to a favored interest group. The pitch is that since veterans in construction jobs benefit, we should support prevailing wage laws. Unmentioned are the veterans working for companies that cannot compete for contracts requiring prevailing wage and veterans who are taxpayers. Using one small group to represent the whole would be a non-starter with an engaged, literate public.
Four. In defense of Steve King. In a widely condemned tweet, Representative King wrote:
"Wilders understands that culture and demographics are our destiny. We can't restore our civilization with somebody else's babies." — Representative Steve King in a tweet, speaking truth to power.
Wilders is the Dutch candidate for Prime Minister who does not believe that Muslim immigrants will assimilate into Dutch society. He is widely characterized as "far right," although he is a conventional leftist in most other respects. King was almost universally reviled for making these two uncontroversial points:
We should preserve our American culture, largely based on Christian and postChristian values brought to our shores by immigrants first from Great Britain and then from Continental Europe. Some alien cultures – notably those based on Islam are inimical to our values and culture. This is particularly apparent in first- and second-generation Muslims.
Many countries with advanced economies are facing demographic suicide via depopulation, with birth rates below –sometimes far below – the replacement rate of 2.1 children per woman of child-bearing age. Some countries, like Germany, Japan, and Italy are near a crisis point, when the demands placed on the welfare state by an increasing elderly population will far outstrip the ability of an ever shrinking number of workers to pay for them. Stagnant economies result. Both Holland and Germany have imported large numbers of Muslims "guest workers" to supplement the workforce. This has not worked out well.
Five. It is not a ban and the travel and refugee pause is about religion. Andy McCarthy reminds us not to kid ourselves. The purpose of these bans, pauses, and vettings is to prevent actual and potential jihadis from entering the country. Jihadis belong to a branch or sect of Islam. Singling them out is of course a religious test, just as would be laws affecting only Methodists. Let's also not kid ourselves about 'diversity' and 'discrimination.' Blindly worshipping these concepts is dangerous. Diversity among people sharing a common culture and language can be a great force for unity. Otherwise diversity creates division and strife. Discrimination is not necessarily a bad thing, unless you believe that any and all distinctions are evil.
Six. Collusion with the Russians. Are we talking about Obama telling Medvedev that he would have more flexibility after the election? Or Hillary Clinton approving the deal benefiting a Clinton Foundation donor and selling 20% of our uranium to the Russians? Or John Podesta's links to Rusnano, a Russian government company founded by Vlad Putin?

Morocco Walking Tour
What to say about Morocco? The very name conjures up images of blue doors and adobe buildings, smoke curling from hookah pipes, and bustling Marrakech markets overflowing with colourful spices. Morocco is one of the most interesting countries in Africa, and its diversity is stunning. Between the high mountains, deserts, beautiful coastline, and busy cities, you'll find the experience of a lifetime.
Getting adjusted to life in Morocco can definitely be intimidating at times. After all, you're stepping into a brand new culture, and things are done differently here. A Morocco walking tour with a friendly and experienced guide is just the answer, and fortunately for you, we have a whole slew of them. Perhaps you'll start out in Marrakech, the capital city, where souks and friendly folks will dazzle you endlessly. Your guide will take you to bab-Agnow, the prettiest gate in Marrakech, built in the 12th century. You can walk to the elaborate and ornate Saadian tombs, the final resting place for Saadian Sultan Ahmed al-Mansour ed-Dahbi, complete with imported Italian marble and decorative plasterwork. Moving onwards to the Jewish Quarter, Mellah, visit the stores and markets featuring local goods and spices of all kinds. Swing by the most visited monument in the city, the Bahia – a gorgeous palace dating back to the 19th century with some incredible Moorish architecture.
Getting out of the city, move onwards to Tangier, a gritty but welcoming city teeming with life. At Malabata Cape, you'll see a gorgeous view of the city as well as the divide between Europe and Africa. Explore Tangier's boulevards, as well as its luxurious villas and palaces, and then swing by Spartel Cape, considered to be the most northwest point of Africa. From here you can see the Caves of Hercules, as well as the Kasbah (the Old Fortification dating from the 15th century). Other highlights include the Mendoubia gardens, Saint-Andrews Church, the Berber market, and the fruits and vegetables market.Read More ...

Summer registration usually begins in early February. Registration is first-come-first-served, and the process differs from the regular semester registration. For a regular semester's registration, business majors are required to have the 2.50 GPA or the 2.80 for admission prior to registering for classes. For summer, you can get an override into a summer course with less than a 2.50 or without being admitted to your major on the contingency that you will meet the requirements for the course at the end of the spring semester. Call the department that offers the course if you need such an override.
Transfer Summer Credits
If you are interested in taking only summer courses to transfer to another institution, apply for admission as a "special - no credentials" (SPNC) student through Admissions. After admission, send an unofficial copy of your transcript to the College of Business and Economics at firstname.lastname@example.com along with your request to register for a specific business course.

Technology the focus of new funding to cut congestion
The Government has awarded £4m to a series of technology projects designed to cut congestion, speed up journeys and clean up the environment.
Announced today (21 Feb), the DfT funding will be split between 19 councils across England, each of whom will receive between £50,000 and £300,000 for their ideas to improve journeys through digital innovation.
Among the 'cutting edge technology' mentioned in the Government release are apps and sensors which can be used to cut congestion, improve parking in city centres and alert drivers when electric car charging points become available.
The funding announcement coincidentally follows a new report published yesterday (20 Feb) which revealed that the UK is Europe's third most traffic-congested country. The Inrix report says UK drivers spend an average of 32 hours a year in congestion during peak hours. London is the UK's most congested city, costing drivers in the capital more than twice the national average at £1,911 per person in 2016 - and more than £6bn as a whole.

The biggest benefactors of the new DfT funding are Warrington, where Bluetooth and Smart technology will be used to manage traffic flow and provide real-time information to businesses and the general public, and Worcestershire, where an information sharing system will enable traffic incidents to be dealt with quickly by highway staff and vehicles.
Andrew Jones, roads minister, said: "Technology is rapidly evolving and this important work shows that if we get it right, it can cut congestion, speed up journeys, clean up the environment, and improve accessibility."
Other successful bidders include:
- £234,000 for Blackpool to use Bluetooth technologies to cut traffic congestion
- £182,000 for Dorset to provide advance congestion warnings for drivers on the A31 using an app
- £150,000 for Coventry for a real-time bay availability system across 450 pay and display parking spots
- £204,000 for Westminster, Hounslow, Hammersmith and Fulham to roll out a new generation of electric vehicle charge points which will provide real-time data to motorists when they are available
- £50,000 for Peterborough to use digital technology to provide real time journey information directly to visually impaired people

In Netherlands they make fantastic use of technology to reduce congestion. Its not modern though. Its called the bicycle!
The elephant in the room is that its unnecessary journeys in unnecessary vehicles that causes congestion. Unless congestion busting initiatives move people out of cars and into active travel then you are simply replacing costs of congestion with costs to NHS for obesity and inactivity induced lifestyle diseases.
Rod King, Warrington, Cheshire, 20's Plenty for Us
Let's get this clear, the Government is running campaigns to stop people being distracted by messages on their mobile devices whilst at the same time funding schemes that will send distracting messages to people's mobile devices.
Duncan MacKillop. No surprise - No accident
Apart from there possibly being a distance meter installed in cars could there be some form of metering that assesses the speed of passing traffic and road side illuminating signage that warns them if the vehicles are too close together. Close enough to become a danger in a pile up should something untoward and unexpected happen to one or other of the leading vehicles.
When we can educate and change drivers behaviour to just this one thing, to a safe stopping or following on distance, a lot of collisions would be avoided and the negative costs to the country would be reduced quite dramatically.

I have something in common with Meryl Streep.
Now for the similarity between Meryl and me. She writes:
"I am a terrible cook. I can cook, but I fear that, as with video gaming or hard-core rap, I have no natural affinity...I'm in direct line with my mother on this one: She had a needlepoint pillow that read, I'm making my favorite thing for dinner: reservations."
I do love rap though.

Suburbs Of The Dead
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
About The Game
Eric Tanner is returning to his homely suburbs from his hardest workout yet at the local gym when he discovers in the hour and a half he was shut out from the human world that everything has gone to hell, he must now not only survive but rid the suburbs he loves and grew up in of its unwanted tenants.
About This Project
My name is Sami Zirak and Suburbs Of The Dead was my final project for my first year of university on my Computing & Games Development course. We were given 10 weeks to produce a top down 2D Zombie game and this is my final product.
After having put so much time and care into this game for 10 weeks I felt that it would be a shame to leave it there so I plan on continuing the development of this game in my spare time which will include:
> The addition of new levels.
> The addition of more guns.
> The addition of new zombie types.
> The addition of new gameplay mechanics.
> The addition of more features.
> Two weapons to kill the undead with.
> The Upgrade Workbench which allows you to power up Eric's killing capabilities.
> A lengthy level which will require patience and progression to beat.
As a second year Games Development student more than anything I am asking for feedback and constructive criticism, so please feel free to leave some in the comments below. If you wish to follow this games development process please feel free to follow my developer blog that is linked below.

"Shocking!! But a very important book for America especially in light of the War on Terrorism!" Why I HATE ISRAEL: A CANDID ACCOUNT is a fresh look at the Jewish-Arabic Conflict in light of current trends in human rights laws and ethics. Priya Gandhi-Ganesh is particularly insightful in identifying troubling elements that are impediments to peace and human progress in the Middle East and on the global scene. Gandhi-Ganesh effortlessly draws together examples and anecdotes to highlight her points. At the end of the book, the reader will most likely find herself empathizing with Gandhi-Ganesh's sentiments. Even if the readers does not, she will certainly feel more enlightened about the realities of the Jewish-Arabic Conflict in today's Post-September 11th World. Perhaps, the most refreshing aspect of this book is the explicitly stated position that the author hates Israel. Gandhi-Ganesh argues from Hinduism, Christianity, International Human Rights, and ethics why her hatred is justified and even encouraged. This book is certainly among the most important books on the Middle East to come out of the new century. Those with a general interest in terrorism and Middle East conflicts will find this book helpful. High schools and colleges can use this book for discussions on ethics, the current situation/events, politics, international relations, and America's place in the world. Thus, this book is excellent for general reading as well as in educational/school settings.

Even famous people get old. They do their best to disguise this from you via plastic surgery, incredibly expensive skin cream containing stem cells from ground up homeless babies, and other assorted arcane beauty rituals too terrible and horrifying to describe here. Some of them are so good at this that no one really realizes they've gotten old until they fall and break a hip or end up on the Oscars telecast the next year in the "In Memoriam" part of the show. And then everyone turns to their friends and says "Damn, who knew?" Who knew, indeed. Well, you will, thanks to this handy little guide we've put together of 15 famous folks who are older than you think.
Age: 51
Yes, that's right, Elaine from Seinfeld is the same age as your mother. The good news is that now all your creepy Elaine fantasies (I know you have them you degenerate animals) will also include her cutting the crusts off your sandwiches and doing your laundry on weekends. The bad news is that after having one of these fantasies you will need either years of intense therapy or a power drill to stick in your ear if you don't have health insurance. So, uh, have fun with that.
Age: 50
Yup, the Karate Kid is 50. Ralph Macchio is 50. 50. Sorry, just trying to wrap my head around that. To be fair, he looks surprisingly good for his age. I mean, given the way his career went you would figure that he would look like a methed out version of Skeletor by now or like Mickey Rourke's ballsack. But nope, he still has that boyish face that made every dude who knew karate on multiple continents want to terrorize him. I'm just saying, sure Mr. Miyagi is dead but with today's new hologram technology, they could totally pull off another Karate Kid flick. Yeah, it would kinda sad and embarrassing but so is Battleship and they still made that shit.
Age: 57
Denzel Washington seems like he's almost ageless, doesn't he? He's one of those rare actors where age is just never an issue. That's why he can get away with playing the same character over a twenty year span like he did in American Gangster without it being weird. That's also why no one probably realizes he's only a few short years away from getting the senior citizen discount at the movie theater or eating dinner at four o'clock in the afternoon. I'm sure the ravages of time will start to show up sooner or later but for now, Denzel just has one of those faces that just never seems to change, which is why I'm guessing that he'll still play the lead role in the Nick Cannon biopic in 2045 after Nick Cannon becomes infamous for drowning Mariah Carey in a bathtub sometime in the next thirty years. You know I'm right. About all of it.
Age: 53
Madonna is still desperately hanging onto her image as a sex icon with her lizard-like talons and because of that everyone still thinks of her in those terms but really, the next time she tries to hump a stage in a wedding dress she'll probably just end up breaking her hip. Perhaps the time has come to applaud her just for staying buff into her fifties instead of mocking her for her gaunt, ropey physique. I mean, after all, she could probably kick my ass and most of yours too. To be fair, she's able to stay ahead of the game by sucking the life essence from everyone around her, kinda like the Mummy but still, goddamn, those arms are like the arms of a Terminator. I'm not sure whether this means we need Brendan Fraser or John Connor to defeat her in the end but for now, let's just all agree to stay out of her way.
Age: 81
Shatner kinda has that weird Betty White thing going on where no matter how old he gets we still think of him as sort of ageless. Sure, we know he's old but if you asked 100 people how old they think Shatner is, I'm guessing only a tiny, tiny percentage would guess that he's actually over 80. Leonard Nimoy is easier to peg because his head and face increasingly look like a statue from Easter Island as he gets old, but Shatner? He seems like he's perpetually in his early 60s, right? But he's actually 81 which means we all have to start preparing for a world in which Captain Kirk boldly goes where, well, everyone eventually goes: the mortuary.
Age: 49
It's not so much that Tom Cruise is 49 years old – I think people would accept that number, at least on the surface – but it's that in only a couple of months Tom Cruise will turn 50, and well, I don't think people are ready to live in a world in which Tom Cruise is 50. There is just something about that that feels… wrong. I think it's because he hasn't really seemed like he's aged all that much since playing Maverick in Top Gun. I mean, yeah, his face is a bit more weathered but let's give credit where credit is due – the man might actually be a vampire. He's like some unholy combo of Lestat, Maverick and Xenu: Warrior Princess. He might never actually die. Damn, maybe we all should get the ol' Thetans flushed out.
Age: 51
Julianne Moore didn't really become famous until she was in her 30s so it shouldn't really be a huge surprise that she has pushed past 50. But still, does she really look much different now than she did in Boogie Nights? No, which is all the more impressive when you consider that most people with her skin tone and hair color (Species: Gingerus Americanus) start to look like the old Nazi at the end of Indiana Jones and the Lost Crusade after he sips out of the wrong Grail as they get older. Sure, she doesn't exactly look young but she sure as hell doesn't look old either. Maybe the Fountain of Youth was really in Marky Mark's pants the whole time? Who knew?
Age: 49
Like with Tom Cruise the idea of Johnny Depp being 50 seems incongruous at the very least. At the most, it's an idea which seems completely batshit nuts like the sky being made out of hot dogs or Snooki being named the new Surgeon General. There's no way Johnny Depp can be 50, right? Well get ready because in only a few short weeks, the dude is going to hit that milestone. I suggest we all celebrate it by moving to France and banging supermodels and smoking out of ostentatious cigarette holders while we laugh and swim in a pile of money. It's what he would want and who are we to deny his birthday wishes? Fine, I'll do it for all of us. You're welcome, world. You're welcome.
Age: 79
That's right, Maverick's mentor is almost 80 years old now. I guess it makes sense when you consider that Top Gun was made over 25 years ago now and even in that, Skerritt was kind of an oldster. But still, you're never really prepared for when someone you watched as a kid turns out to be knockin' on heaven's door, you know? Sure, sure, there's the occasional heroin related accident or – in probably Val Kilmer's case – the occasional ham sandwich related accident that sends them riding to Valhalla on their spirit horse but old age? Man, that just bums me out. I refuse to let any of the actors I watched as a child get any older. Goddammit, this article is starting to depress me…
Age: 53
That big boobed poker playing lady that you can't stop lusting after? Yeah, she's the same age as your mom. Think about THAT the next time you're pawing at yourself at 2:00 AM, half-drunk, watching poker on the Travel Channel while she wins hand after hand using only the power of her magical Two-Pair. Just remember that she is probably spending the winnings on Polly-Grip and Werther's Originals. Either that or… or… sorry, I got distracted there. Are we sure those, er I mean she, yeah… she, is 53? Really? Screw it, I'm all in.
Age: 63
Sam Jackson is 63 years old. Just think about that for a moment and let it sink in before we continue. The man – and Sam Jackson is most definitely The Man – is already at the age where he can start getting discounts for being an old geezer. And yet, there he is, playing Nick Fury on the big screen and sweet-talking his phone in TV commercials. It's a testament to how badass Sam Jackson really is that when that commercial airs, the possibility at least exists that he's thawing the icy heart of that robot vixen Siri with his talk of hot Gazpacho, right? I mean, how many 63 year-old men do you know who could pull that off? Hell, how many 63 year-old men do you know who can even operate an iPhone without having a stroke or accidentally blowing something up? And yet, there's Samuel L. Jackson, sweet-talking Siri while making Gazpacho and no one says a goddamn thing. Now that's a man for whom age is utterly meaningless.
Age: 72
Chuck Norris is such a badass that… well, actually no he's not. He's a 72 year-old man who probably can't eat anything more firm than applesauce, who probably has to wear a diaper on long car rides and who fretted like an old maid until Sly Stallone agreed to soften The Expendables II until it was a Chuck Norris-approved PG-13 rated family friendly film. What a hard ass! No, but really, it's kind of amazing that people still think that Chuck Norris could break anything other than his own hip after skipping out on his calcium supplements. You may think he's a badass, but the dude is old as dirt.
Age: 62
When people think of Sigourney Weaver they think of her as the badass warrior chick who put the beat-down on those freaky aliens. What they don't think about is a lady who in less than a decade will probably be sitting in a rocking chair on the front porch, her liver-spotted hands knitting a quilt for those dear aliens the next time they come to visit her. Okay fine, perhaps that's a slight exaggeration but you can't deny that you were pretty surprised when you saw that she was in her 60s, now can you? Don't lie to me. It's unbecoming. Still, like Madonna, I'm guessing she could still kick most of our asses and I'm guessing half of you would still get an erection while she was doing so. I apologize, this got weird, but again, don't even try to lie to me.
Age: 81
Sure, I think we all know that Sean Connery is kinda old, but in our heads we still picture him as strong and virile, James Bond in his retirement years, still crushing ass and sipping martinis. But look at that picture. That's not just an old man, that's an OLD man. That's crushing up pills in the applesauce and sipping Metamucil old. The spirit of Bond has clearly left him and in its place is a dude who's older than my grandpa – and not nearly as energetic. And my grandpa is dead. And now so is my mental image of the original Bond. Hell, the only time you'll probably ever hear him utter that name now is when he's saying the following: "Bond… Gold Bond. Yes, that's right, Gold Bond Powder. I need it for my diaper rash…"
Age: 69
In less than a year, Harrison Ford will be 70 years old. Now, I don't know about you but I am not prepared for a world in which Han Solo and Indiana Jones are in their 70s. That's just an awful thought, wrong and horrible. I mean, on an intellectual level, I think we get it – after all, the dude was 35 years old when the first Star Wars came out and like me, I'm guessing a lot of you weren't even born when that happened – but on an emotional level… nope, not ready for it. We all reeled when the dude was in his 50s and we sort of shook our head and tried to pretend that it wasn't true when he was in his 60s but there's no ignoring 70. There just isn't. I mean, that's even older than Ronald Reagan was when he was elected President and I think we can all agree that dude was OLD. Try to imagine Ronald Reagan playing Indiana Jones in 1981. You can't do it, can you? At least not without laughing. But that's where we find ourselves today with Harrison Ford, which is such a depressing thought that there was no way anyone else could have been number one on this list.

text: Event DetailsEvent Dates: Friday, June 13, 2014 - 12:00pmSeminar Location: CASA Conference Room C324Speaker Name(s): Melvyn DaviesSpeaker Affiliation(s): Lund Seminar Type/SubjectScientific Seminar Type: Astrophysics Lunch SeminarEvent Details & Abstract: Stellar birth environments are dangerous environments for planetary systems. I will describe how planetary systems are vulnerable to perturbations from passing stars and stellar companions within stellar clusters. These perturbations may lead to a chain of events that result in the ejection of some planets, leaving those remaining on tighter, and eccentric, orbits. Planetary systems may exchange into binary systems and then the stellar companion may perturb planetary orbits via the Kozai mechanism. I will show how this can lead to strong dynamical interactions between planets in a planetary system, with some planets being ejected. In some cases, planets placed on extremely eccentric orbits may form hot jupiters via tidal interactions. By using full N-body calculations of young stellar clusters, I quantify the frequency of both fly-by encounters and binary-exchange encounters, and also the frequency of close encounters involving protoplanetary discs. I compute the fraction of planetary systems likely to emerge unscathed from a stellar cluster.

Rapport /raˈpôr,rə-/ (noun): A close and harmonious relationship in which the people or groups concerned understand each other's feelings or ideas and communicate well. Synonyms: affinity, close relationship, mutual understanding, bond, and empathy (Oxford Pocket Dictionary).
Anyone in the mental health field can tell you that rapport is the foundation of a strong working relationship between a counselor and client. It can be considered the crucial first step in seeing client progress and should be built with care. As I sit down to reflect on my own experiences with building rapport, I realize there are some common practices that tend to make the process smoother.
1. Mirror
I've learned that it's beneficial to pay close attention to clients' communication style and then find a balance between that and yours. For instance, when I'm in session with a hyperactive child, I find it helpful to start off energetic then slowly calm down. I've noticed that this leads the client to also match my style by the end.
2. Make eye contact
As a new counselor, I feel compelled to take notes during sessions. It's something I've become less dependent on overtime, but I know even a few instances of it can break eye contact. Learning to take concise sessions notes that include keywords (instead of detailed phrases) has helped me maintain eye contact longer, which shows clients that they have my full attention.
3. Ask questions, but not just for information
Do it because you're genuinely interested – or at least make it appear that way. This seems like it should be a given, but it's not always the case. Even in my practice, I've caught myself asking questions on automatic with new clients. I've learned that it's not necessary to obtain all the basic information right away – sometimes it's more helpful to get a conversation going, even if it's not directly related to the treatment.
What factors help you build trust with a new individual in your life? Please share below!

I'm a talker. My parents say I haven't stopped talking since I uttered my first words. I'm pretty sure all of my former school teachers and husband would agree. I've been known to get in trouble with my love of talking. From being told to go back to my cubicle at work for talking about "things that weren't work related" to speaking my mind in the heat of an argument, my words can hurt me sometimes. I want to talk well. I want to use my personality, talkative nature, and ability not for my own benefit but for God's glory. He created me, which means he created me with a mouth that likes to move. But I'm also a sinner. Which means, my mouth that likes to move often moves in unhelpful ways.
So in an effort to help myself I'm going to be blogging about speech for a little bit. I will probably interject a random post here and there as ideas move me, but because I learn through writing I'm hoping that this little writing exercise will bear fruit in my life. Maybe you can relate, dear reader. Maybe you, like me, like to move your mouth and want it to move for good and not evil. We are in this together. I hope you will join me for the ride.

The part when the crocodile was dancing was my favorite part of the book. I did not like Napoleon because he trapped the crocodile and it wasn't fair. I liked the crocodile because at the end he ate all the people that he did not like. I thought it was funny and it made me laugh. I liked the illustrations because they were funny and the colors were bright. The book also made me laugh inside because it was weird what the crocodile does.
If you like to laugh, this is the book for you! I recommend it if you like to do silly stuff and sneaky things. I recommend this book to kids in grades 2, 3, or 4.

We spent Father's Day at my brother in law's house eating our weight in deep fried and grilled fresh fish from his recent fishing trip to Alaska.
I made a couple dishes to go with it that I was not happy with. I'm planning to rework the recipes before sharing them because I think they have the potential to be great!
For dessert...I wanted something light and creamy. This fit the bill and was super simple and fast.
By the way...if you're wondering, Grand Marnier does come in a small bottle. It's not cheap so I'm going to looking for more ways to use it.

We are thrilled to introduce you to Melissa from Lilac Lane Patterns and to find out a little about her and her fabulous designs
Tell us about you?
I'm Melissa Stramel, the designer behind Lilac Lane Patterns. I create patterns for little girls' outfits, bags, and some quilts. The theme of Lilac Lane is "Make Life Beautiful" and by that I try to spread beauty through everything I do. My aim is to teach anyone who would like to sew to both learn and love to do it. How did your business name come about?
My business is named after the street I lived on in college at the University of Kansas. '
Tell us about your products and list 3 (which we stock) that are your favourites and why?
My favorite patterns are Beloved because it was created for my girls to wear as flower girls in my niece's wedding, the Friendship Dress because it's an updated classic, and the Chasing Rainbows quilt because I love all the color. My designs are entirely inspired by my children and what I think little girls should wear. My style is definitely modest and classic, but with a twist. Where do you find inspiration for new designs? My business has evolved through very nontraditional paths. I love everything floral. I started out creating and selling silk flower arrangements. This led to opening a little store in my town which was a co-op of creative people, such as a soap maker and a candle maker and many others. As the business grew, people asked about sewn items, and I started to make and sell those too. I've always sewn, at least since I was three (I have real evidence from that time – a pillow I created for my grandma), so this was an easy thing for me to add. Since I was making up my creations as I went, I thought I should develop them into patterns. I started with the Moda Bake Shop and Riley Blake Cutting Corners and from there began publishing actual patterns.
What does the future hold for you
I have a new series of patterns just released called Learning to Sew. They are very basic, and yet things that the girls want to make.
These patterns assume that the buyer has only a basic knowledge of sewing, such as turning on the machine, threading the needle, winding the bobbin and sewing a straight line and i have just released the Hopscotch Dress
We hope you have enjoyed getting to know Melissa, you can view all her patterns here

Brian Ellis - Peg
by Austin Boogie Crew
Artist: Brian Ellis
Title: Peg
Format: 7"
Speed: 45 RPM
The Modern Funk community continues to circulate in good form as Brian Ellis takes a turn with Austin Boogie Crew for the 2nd release. Their 1st release flew off the shelves here before warranting a Rush Hour reprint. For this piece, Mr. Ellis tackles the onerous task of covering one of the most recognizable and beloved tunes from Steely Dan with an arsenal of synths and vocoder-vocal stylings. It works! Original piece Dream Wave on the B-Side impresses just as much if not more. Another stellar composition from the multi-instrumentalist Ellis.

B1 : Dream Wave

The Australian Information Industry Association has welcomed the Federal Government's $6.5 million investment to target the IT skills shortfall but categorised it as "overdue".
The Digital Careers program, announced yesterday, will be rolled out by NICTA and will initially expand Queensland's "Group X' pilot which has boosted the number of school students choosing to study IT at university or TAFE by 60 percent over five years.
It comes as the sector struggles to attract talent, with enrolments in IT courses continuing to decline on a national level.
"We would like to try and replicate the success in Queensland on a national scale," said Simon Kaplan, director of skills and industry transformation at NICTA.
Kaplan is hoping the industry will come to the party.
"For us in the IT industry this is absolutely bloody vital. If we've got young kids coming out starting their own companies, going to work in existing firms, we're guaranteeing the future of an IT industry in Australia.
"If we don't people have no choice but to outsource and go offshore, and we could look around in ten years time and just see ashes. We don't want that, so we need people to get involved," Kaplan told iTnews.
He said the Group X program was focused on breaking down some of the perception problems the sector faced, helping potential IT students to understand working in the sector wasn't "Revenge of the Nerds meets some sort of terrible poverty story".
"The reality of course is nothing like the perception at all … there are lots of jobs, they are generally quite well paid, they are interesting, there's a ton of variety, there's lots of opportunity to travel and so on.
"Now we've got a whole new generation of jobs coming out around data science and analytics. As long as the IT industry has been around it just keeps reinventing itself with new types of interesting jobs and there's no reason to believe that that will stop."
Kaplan said the Group X program was also focused on separating course provider brands from information on how to train in IT.
"University brands get in the way when you're doing this because you're trying to talk about a career, not about a particular institution where you can train.
"If you've got your university branding all over it, the message you're sending is 'please give me your HECS money'."
Kaplan said flooding schools with lecturers talking about IT doesn't work.
"Put somebody from industry in that school and talk about what you can actually do in that career and now you're having a completely different and much better conversation."

Woodhaven Neighborhood
The community of Woodhaven is comprised of 1046 homes beautifully nestled within the quaint city of Sherwood Oregon. Located in Washington County, Woodhaven homeowners are situated amongst nature's finest: from the tree-lined entrance boulevard to over 72 acres of preserved green space and walking/bike paths. Homes in Woodhaven have been designed to compliment each other as well as the community of Sherwood. Made up of single-family residences along with attractive town homes, living in Woodhaven is perfect for all ages. Covering over 185 acres, 72 of them are dedicated to green space. The homes located on green space areas have almost 2 miles of paved trails behind them perfect for walking, biking, jogging and the occasional skateboarder.
Woodhaven residents have an active HOA board that meet on a monthly basis. Residents also receive on their doorsteps delivered by Woodhaven students a monthly or quarterly Official HOA endorsed newsletter provided by neighborhood specialists and residents, Todd & Leslie McCabe, brokers with John L. Scott of Sherwood. Residents can advertise for free their needs and wants in the newsletter.
When you drive down one of the streets in Woodhaven, you will see that the residents take pride in their homes and their neighborhood with beautifully landscaped yards. It's a community that is focused on the family and you will see children on bikes, couples walking their dogs, and many joggers and walkers enjoying where they live.
The Sherwood School District is made up of 4 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and one high school. Several of the schools are within walking distance of many Woodhaven streets. Families can walk or take a short bike ride to attend a football game or participate in the Annual American Cancer Society's Relay For Life event located on the high school's track and filed. Or residents can walk to several of the local elementary school's to cheer on the kids as they participate in the Annual Fun Run. Sports and extra curricular activities are also a big part of the community of Sherwood. Being physically close to several of the school's fields makes living in Woodhaven very convenient for an active student or athlete. Sherwood School District consistently receives high rankings on the State of Oregon's school report cards, and is recognized for their strong academics and athletic programs. Schools are greatly supported by the community
Annual Woodhaven Neighborhood Events
Each summer, Woodhaven neighbors look forward to being a part of their annual garage sale. Over 90 homes usually participate in the sale and the annual event is organized and sponsored by Todd & Leslie McCabe, neighborhood experts and brokers with John L. Scott of Sherwood. The event is set for the last weekend in June and is on Friday and Saturday. Because the event is so huge, parking becomes scares from shoppers and Woodhaven residents out looking for great bargains!
Every 4th of July, residents line the streets to watch the annual Woodhaven Parade. The parade is tradition and consists of little ones on decorated bikes, or in strollers, families walking their pets, a few decorated cars, and many families sitting on the sidewalk to cheer on the participants bringing a sense of community spirit and pride to the homeowners.
Whether you are a raising a family, or retired, Woodhaven is a great place to call home!

Brie Larson: Shailene Woodley & I Understood Each Other Instantly
Brie Larson is red hot as she steps out for the premiere of Begin Again held at SVA Theater on Wednesday night (June 25) in New York City.
The day before, the 24-year-old actress was spotted shooting her latest film Trainwreck in Central Park.
PHOTOS: Check out the latest pics of Brie Larson
"When Shai and I met each other, it was boom!" Brie recently told Vulture about her friendship with Shailene Woodley. "We understood each other instantly. We're the lighthouse for each other: the beam that stays focused and guides you home."
Shailene added, "Together, we are able to refine our ideas. In the past, we would talk about how people told us that if we wanted �'success,' we'd have to dress a certain way, act a certain way. Brie and I always felt different, and, suddenly, when we met, that was okay. In fact, it was great."
FYI: Brie is wearing Prada.

Signs Work 24/7, All Year Round
September 25, 2011
Business Tips Article
Peggy Rosser
ASU-SBDC Rural Business Manager
SAN ANGELO, Texas — Business owners can draw business acuity from a wide variety of sources. I recently heard a song on an "oldies" station which rekindled my interest in business signs: "Sign, sign, everywhere a sign, blockin' out the scenery, breakin' my mind "
The artist, Five Man Electrical Band, wrote the song in the early '70s during the hippie days. Nonetheless, it spurred my thinking about the importance of business signage!
I've purchased business signs, wooden and lighted signs. I still remember looking out through the windows of our business, over the parking lot, at the new lighted sign we had just erected. I was thinking, "I could have bought a good used car for the same amount of money!" The difference was that a used car would not advertise my business every hour of every day of every year! The sign beckons shoppers to stop, and it reminds the passer-by that you are there. When someone new moves to the area, it introduces your business to them.
As a business owner, you want people to stop into your business and make purchases. "Your on-premise signage can be a business' single most important advertising vehicle" said R. James Claus in an article titled, "SIGNS: Showcasing your Business on the Street." A sign brings customers to your business.
Supporting that theory, the Institute of Transportation Engineers performed research on the percentage of stops attributable to motorists for whom the business site was not their primary destination. Shopping centers smaller than 100,000 square feet pulled in a 35 percent Impulse-Stop percentage, while the shopping centers larger than 400,000 had a rate of 30 percent. Service stations, convenience stores and fast food restaurants Impulse-Stop percentage varies at 40 percent, 40 percent and 45 percent, respectfully.
"And because the stops are not planned, it is unlikely such stops would be made without optimum communication to the street by the sample businesses," Claus said. Businesses rely on impulse visits and purchases to maintain profitability.
Perhaps it is time for you to take a new look at how your business is communicating to the street? Check it out! Simply get into your car and drive up and down the street where your business is. Does your sign "pop"? Can you separate it from among the competing signs? If you didn't know the name of your business, would you be able to read the sign from the street?
A new, big, red and white sign has been erected in San Angelo, and it only has two words on it. I know I have piqued the curiosity of some, while others are saying the business name because there is no mistaking the clarity of this sign! Given time, you, too, will see it!
If you discover your sign needs some updating, don't fall victim to what appears to be the current practice of putting a busy background behind your business name. While the background and lettering look great close up on the lit display of a computer screen, it will not look the same when you place it on top of a pole 15 to 20 feet in the air.
Before you put your name on that dotted line for your new sign, I challenge you to try something. Have the proposed sign printed on paper. Using a large format printer, you can reproduce the sign and temporarily tape it to your old sign. Now drive up and down the street and see if it looks like you had planned. Are the letters large enough to read clearly? Does the background conflict with the lettering? Do the sign colors complement each other?
Many changes can and should be made until the sign you purchase is easily read and reflects the image you planned. Only then should you sign the paperwork for your new sign and extend an invitation to those driving by to stop and shop with you.

The Beat Magazine "Jeanne Jolly: Catch Her While You Can"
"Succinctly, her vocals are a knockout. Wrap all of her talents together and she attains one of the most challenging goals of a performing artist: to have the public actually care about the singer. It's a beautiful marriage and everybody wins; the audience entrusting the artist to take them on a journey that is emotionally fulfilling. That comes with responsibility and Miss Jolly seems more than capable of accepting and nurturing it."
