……was my first reaction when I first heard about it. After the much maligned
- changes to Stamp Duty on second home purchases
- changes to tax relief from mortgage payments
I may be forgiven for assuming the worst! For example, I initially wondered whether it was going to force landlords to give up rooms or even whole houses where they have been vacant for a certain length of time for social housing.
I am delighted to say I was very wrong!
The Homelessness Reduction Bill is aimed at local authorities doing more to prevent homelessness and for those who are already homeless to get them into accommodation. There is no obligation being forced on private landlords.
Phew! Now I can ignore it and carry on……..or maybe not. Maybe there is an opportunity here, particularly for those landlords with a strong sense of social obligation…….?
Prior to the Homelessness Reduction Bill, if you were homeless you needed to meet certain criteria before the councils were duty-bound to provide you with housing. For example, single mums, people with children, people with health conditions and disabilities were always given housing first.
The introduction of the Homelessness Reduction Bill changes the scope of the obligation on local authorities to provide accommodation for anyone who is homeless (including single people), or at risk of becoming homeless, at the time when such people ask for help.
So, where is the opportunity?
The Homelessness Reduction Bill is going to increase the need for single occupancy rooms in multi-lets.
There is going to be an increase in demand for LHA HMOs (local housing allowance houses in multiple occupancy).
- Do you have HMOs with frequent and long term vacancies?
- Are there any neglected buildings coming up for sale that could be snapped up for a low, low price and converted into a HMO with good profit margins left in even if sold/let for social housing?
- If offered, the local authority may take over the management of your property. You may get less rent if let privately but you will get zero voids, no management overhead and your property returned in good condition.
With social property projects, there are risks involved for you as a landlord or investor but such risks can be mitigated by working with specialists and by seeking and taking as much advice as possible.
But, if this is of interest to you and you act now and get involved with social investment, you will find yourself at the forefront of a new approach to housing which will not only benefit your tenants but also your bottom line.
What next…..?
If this sounds like it maybe a good idea you could look at working with the local authorities directly, pick up the phone and call their housing department.
The same applies for contacting social housing associations, let them know that you have resources to help them with housing for homeless people, as the bill starts to kick in.

"The Truth about the Lordship of Christ," by John MacArthur is one of three books in the Truth Series. After reading this one, I am inspired to also read the other two, "The Truth about Grace," and The Truth about Forgiveness." These books are teachings of the core aspects of the Christian faith. Whether you are a newbie or a well-seasoned Christian, learning for the first time or just being reminded and refreshed in your convictions, "The Truth about the Lordship of Christ," is a book that will definitely speak to your inner spirit.
John MacArthur is a skillful writer and teacher who draws you right into comparing the life you are living with what God is willing for your personal relationship with Him. The book has only six chapters, but they are wonderful chapters full of knowledge, assurance, biblical references, encouragement to believers, and explaining the consequences to unbelievers who deny Christ. The chapter titles are: Lord of the Universe; Lord in Our Lives; Daily Submission; Holy Living: Confession and Restoration; and Ultimate Destination. Mr. MacArthur delves deeply into God's character and purpose and how it applies to our daily walk of faith – things like the sovereignty of God, that only God can declare us righteous, the importance of repentance and of receiving a renewed mind, salvation. God wants us to have a Christ-like character, to become sanctified. John MacArthur explains, "Sanctification is the continuous operation of the Holy Spirit in believers, making us holy by conforming our character, affections, and behavior to the image of Christ." What a loving and merciful God we have, who wants to make each of us like His own Son! How grateful I am for that privilege. I absolutely loved this book and recommend it be put at the top of your book reading list.
I received this complimentary copy from Thomas Nelson Publishing through their BookSneeze program. A positive review was not required and the opinion expressed here is my own.

A delicious fish recipe from a satisfied Off the Hook subscriber…
I used to think that gefilte fish wasn't for the faint of heart.
By the faint of heart, of course, I mean non-Jews.
Then, after a Passover feast I hosted a few years ago in Halifax, and another in Paris in 2009, I noticed that the non-Jews were even more excited about this old-school Ashkenazi Jewish delicacy than even my parents or grandparents were.
What is gefilte fish? They are like meatballs – mixing ground whitefish of any kind with carrots, onions, matzo meal (this is flour + water, baked into flat crunchy bread made especially for Passover, and then broken back down into what is basically again flour for use in cakes, matzo balls, gefilte fish, etc. Do not ask me why Jews do this.) The balls are boiled in fish stock and chilled. They are usually served alone as an appetizer, along with cooked carrots and beet (red) horseradish.
This could easily be made using groundfish from the Off The Hook CSA – cod, haddock, hake would all work, but any other whitefish would make a delicious substitute (I have made gefilte from tilapia, pollock and silver hake). In Toronto and other cities with large Jewish populations, you can easily buy pre-ground fish to make gefilte. In Halifax, good luck. Buy fresh whole fish, filet the meat and boil the rest per the below.
1.5kg whitefish meat
bones, head, skin and everything else (from the above)
5 onions, sliced
2L water
20ml salt
10ml freshly ground pepper
30ml sugar
3 eggs
175ml cold water
45ml matzah meal
3 carrots, sliced
1. Combine fish bones, head, skin with onions in a large pot. Add 2L water, 10ml of the salt, 5ml of the pepper. Bring to a boil and simmer while preparing the next steps.
2. Place the fish meat in a food processor and lightly grind (you could grind by hand if you prefer). Move the fish to a bowl, add the sugar, eggs, cold water, matzah meal and all of the remaining salt and pepper. Wet your hands and shape into balls about 5-7cm around.
3. Place the fish in the simmering liquid and add carrots. Be careful not to skewer the fish balls on the bones at the bottom of the pot. Lower the heat and cover loosely. Cook 1.5h. Uncover and cook 0.5h longer.
4. Cool slightly and remove the fish balls to a bowl. Strain the stock remaining in the pot over the gefilte fish (i.e. leaving bones and skin behind). Reserve some carrots to garnish the fish when serving.
5. Chill well (preferably overnight) and serve with beet (red)
horseradish, and with the carrots on the side.
The stock may have turned to jelly in the bowl as it cooled, and is delicious on toast.
One more important note: there is a genealogical distinction called "the gefilte fish line" which, if you're Jewish, can tell you where your family may be from in the old country. If you add more sugar to the above recipe, to produce a slightly sweet-tasting gefilte, you are from the west, known as a Galicianer in Jewish. You are probably from Poland or Ukraine. If this idea you find slightly odd or repellent, you are from east of the line, and known as a Litvak. You are possibly from Latvia, Lithuania, Belarus or Russia.
I can tell you that I am solidly in the latter camp – and while I would eat a sweetened gefilte fish (when do Jews turn down food?), I would not hold back complaining about it.

How is warfare depicted in moves?
Warfare in movies is usually very carefully shown. Most movies I have seen are extremely sensitive when it comes to war. Most modern day movies treat war like it's hell, which I'm sure it is.
Why am I interested in warfare through movies?
I am interested in warfare through movies because I am curious of the importance of making movies about the various conflicts we as a people have endured. I find that most movies about war eventually come into the idea of hope. That hope is an integral part of our lives, and we might not even realize it until we are in the darkest parts of our, or someone else's in the form of movies, life.
The Average Individual
What impacts does one individual have on the world at large? How about around those closest to them?
I think it's interesting about the impact a single person has on the world around them. The President of the United States will change history throughout the four years they are in power. However, what will the average Joe really change?
What does film has to do with this concept?
I love the movies Cast Away and Forrest Gump. They both take fairly average men through vastly different lives. In Cast Away, we learn that life continues no matter what happens, even if you might not be a part of it. That being said, Forrest Gump plays an important part in the second half of the twentieth century in the world at large.
What's Out There?
Why do I love science fiction?
Science fiction is the question of "What if?". That is all there is to it. I love the idea of humans as a species advancing to colonize and explore new worlds.
How has science fiction changed the way we look at the universe?
That's the question I'm looking to get answered.

19 Months- Our Little Parrot
Current favorite sport - basketball! (he talks about this ALL day long)
Hanging in his fort - the lawn mower box.
Taking over the new recliner
Braden turned 19 months this past Friday, right before the Easter holiday. His biggest development in the last month is his vocabulary. He repeats the last word of every sentence we say. For example, I'll say: "Let's get your shoes on because we are going to the store." He will repeat, just "store". That goes on all day long. He has become our little parrot! So, we better really watch what we say now! ha.
The words or sayings that he uses very frequently on his own (without prompting) are basketball (this one is used about 100x a day), window, worker (for the maintenance guys he sees outside), button, hallway, I don't know, no way, and applesauce to name a few. He is also getting good at people's names and can say some of our family members and neighbors names on his own when he sees them. It is really fun to be able to communicate more and more, but of course he also has entered the "no" stage. He clearly has his opinions on what he wants to do or what he wants to eat now. If I ask him if he wants a snack and he will say "no" but then 10 seconds later he'll grab for the snack. So, maybe the terrible two's are slowly approaching. Yikes.
Some activities that Braden has been partaking in the last month are: coloring on his own at the table (so nice), shooting hoops (he is obsessed w/ basketball), sitting in our new recliner - between he and Joe, I don't stand a chance on spending much time in it, enjoying the various activities at the Children's Museum (great venue for the bad weather this spring), playing with bubbles, and pretty much playing with anything and everything outside - especially the neighbors toys.
19 months has flown by and it's crazy to think that in a few months he will turn two and become a big brother right around that same time!
Easter pics to come soon....

Berkeley City College Grad Spawns Organic-Pudding Empire
The French pastry chef wanted Americans to fall in love with traditional pot de crème.
Image courtesy of Petit Pot
Petit Pot, a creamy-desserts company founded in 2015 by a Berkeley City College alum, has just gone entirely organic and is lowering its prices.
The company has even made its already-adorable logo "even cuter," insiders assert.
"Making our puddings organic delights everybody," said Petit Pot founder Maxime Pouvreau, who worked as a deluxe pastry chef in his native France before crossing the Atlantic to work at Daniel Patterson's prestigious San Francisco restaurant Coi. He then studied business at BCC and — finding traditional French pots de crème in short supply Stateside — founded Petit Pot, whose gluten-free treats are made with local ingredients.
To celebrate its new USDA Organic certification on all its pots de crème and riz au laits (rice puddings), the company — having become the first premium clean-label pudding that's both organic and kosher — is refreshing its packaging and reducing its manufacturer's suggested retail price to $2.99.
"Customers feel that much better about indulging in a creamy French dessert and retailers benefit from a reputation of offering higher quality and something special and new," Pouvreau said.

How to Reach Your Audience through Words
By Melinda Copp
As a writer, the most important person in your work life is your readers—the people who pick up your book, buy it, and take the time to read it; the people who see your article and contact you for more information; and the people who go to your web site and decide to buy your product or service. Your readers are your audience, the people you are trying to reach and persuade. Therefore, you should always keep your readers in mind as you write.
So what does that mean? Well, first you have to know your audience. Who are they? Where do they live? What do they need? What are their habits? Then you have to step into their shoes and look at the information you're presenting from their perspective. Let's consider the process one step at a time.
Who is Your Audience?
You probably know more about your audience than you might think. They are the people who need what you have, whether that's a product, service, or information. For example, if you're writing a book about potty training, your primary audience is moms with young children. Your secondary audiences might include dads, daycare workers, grandparents, and child development professionals. By this point you should know exactly who you're writing your book for, so take out a piece of paper and list your primary and secondary audiences.
What Does Your Audience Want?
Now think about your audience. What are their needs? What do they want? What's important to them? What do they like to read?
Let's examine the primary audience from the potty-training example—moms with young children—layer by layer. What do moms need? Well, on layer one, need their child to be out of diapers, sooner rather than later. Now if we look a little deeper, we understand that moms' lives tend to be pretty busy and hectic—take it from someone who knows—so you could say that moms need simplicity. They need the potty-training solutions offered in your book to be easy to implement and maintain.
Next—what do busy moms want? What's important to them? Well, they want to stop changing diapers, obviously. But they also want their toddler to feel good about going to the potty. To a mom, nothing is more important than her child. So, you have to write in a way that's simple and easy for busy moms to manage, and write in a way that reassures the mom that her child will gain confidence and feel supported throughout the potty training process. Now think about what's important to your audience and how you can present your information to reflect that.
Where and How Does Your Audience Get their Information?
Let's keep going with the example above—where do moms like to get their information? This one is a no-brainer; they like to get their information from other moms. When moms get together, they share tips, struggles, and ideas. They like to talk to their friends about the problems they're having. This is why parenting magazines are written in a conversational, girlfriend-to-girlfriend style. If you're writing a book about potty training, then that's the style you should use to convey your information to your audience. And every sentence, example, and anecdote you put on the page should reflect your audience and their needs, wants, and challenges.
How Can You Write for Your Audience?
You've probably heard this example: imagine you're writing an e-mail to your boss about a recent business trip to Hawaii. The information you convey in that e-mail and the tone in which you convey it will be very different than an e-mail you would send your best friend about the same trip, right? If you want to keep your job, then the two e-mails will probably be very different. Tone plays a role in writing for your audience as well, and I'll cover tone in more depth in chapter five.
But for now, as you're writing, ask yourself:
Hooking Your Audience, and Keeping them on the Line
Regardless of what you're writing about and who you're writing for, you can ask yourself these questions about your audience and write in a way that speaks directly to their needs and wants. Communicating well with your audience will make your information resonate with readers and your writing will be more successful as a result.

- Time: 109 min
- Genre: Action | Crime | Drama
- Director: John Singleton
- Cast: Mark Wahlberg, Tyrese Gibson, André Benjamin
Four adopted brothers come to avenge their mother's death in what appears to be a random killing in a grocery store robbery. However, the boys' investigation of the death reveals more nefarious activities involving the one brother's business dealings with a notorious local hoodlum. Two cops who are trying to solve the case may also not be what they seem.

This, he told me, was because Horniman's is in fact an English company and "people of a certain age would not find that in the least bit rude".
Maybe not. But I can't help still adding it to the catalogue in an 'honourary' capacity because (a) I bought it in a foreign country and (b) I'm not sure any food or drink product should be named after an aroused male.
But I don't think there's any controversy surrounding the latest product we have come across in South America. It's foreign and it sounds slightly rude, which means it sails into the SRSFPN Hall of Fame.
We saw these salted biscuits, which come in regular Kraps and mini Kraps, on an advertising hoarding in Lima, so imagine my delight at being able to use my finest Spanish in a corner shop and ask: "Do you have Kraps?"
Thankfully the Kraps didn't live up to their name. They were actually very good.
We have sourced a second Peruvian SRSFPN candidate and as soon as we get a picture of it, it'll be on here. Watch this space!

Will Trump Pardon Sheriff Joe?
Massive Trump supporter and former Sheriff, Joe Arpaio and was just convicted of a criminal charge.
Arpaio was found guilty of for refusing to stop traffic patrols that targeted illegals.
Absolutely ridiculous!
We think Trump needs to pardon Arpaio. Do you agree?
From ABC Arizona
Former Sheriff Joe Arpaio was convicted of a criminal charge Monday for refusing to stop traffic patrols that targeted immigrants, marking a final rebuke for a politician who once drew strong popularity from such crackdowns but was ultimately booted from office as voters became frustrated over his headline-grabbing tactics and deepening legal troubles.
The verdict from U.S. District Judge Susan Bolton represents a victory for critics who voiced anger over Arpaio's unusual efforts to get tough on crime, including jailing inmates in tents during triple-digit heat, forcing them to wear pink underwear and making hundreds of arrests in crackdowns that divided immigrant families.
When reached for comment by ABC15 on Monday morning, Arpaio said his "main reaction was disappointment."
Arpaio will now appeal Judge Bolton's verdict in order to get a trial by jury, according to a statement from his attorneys.
"Her verdict is contrary to what every single witness testified in the case," the statement read.
"Arpaio believes that a jury would have found in his favor, and that it will."

Members of Borders Voluntary Care Voice held their annual meeting with local MSPs last week.
Christine Grahame, Claudia Beamish and John Lamont were at the event in Old Gala House, Galashiels, to discuss a wide range of health and social care issues with members of the Borders-wide voluntary organisation.
Jim Hume was unable to attend, but the Liberal Democrats were represented when local councillor Catriona Bhatia later took part in an informal session with the attendees.
Among the topics discussed were health and social care integration; Self-Directed Support and its roll-out in the Scottish Borders; welfare reforms; SBC's decision to create an arms-length organisation for social care,;and the Smith Commission recommendations.
Co-ordinator of Borders Voluntary Care Voice, Jenny Miller said: "We are grateful to the MSPs for taking the time to come along each year and discuss a wide range of issues. This event gives us a chance to share information and to highlight any concerns we might have about health and social care issues in the Scottish Borders."

Starting a career later in life is not a big deal these days. We live longer, we look younger, we think younger than our parents did so it's not surprising that we sometimes never learn what it is we want to do until a little later. I'm also a firm believer that it's never too late to start something new.
Being a female musician, a singer to be more precise, I was always concerned that people would think I was old and past it if they knew I wasn't 17. I really can't pass for that age and I can't make apologies for loving writing and creating music just because I've reached a certain age. I'll have to accept it and so will everyone else. After all, what's the most important thing about creating music. Firstly that you love what you do and that you can get to play it to other people and they grow to love it to.
I've been told that I have fans of all ages from as young as 10 and then upwards of that. So I must be doing something right.
I have to admit it did take a long time before I stopped lying about my age. I would always deduct about 10 years but all that has to stop. I'm in competition with lots of singers half my age but it's those people that come to me for singing lessons. So again - I must be dooing something right.
It feels right, it suits me fine to be who I am - whatever my age. And I'll keep on making music until it's physically impossible and then age really won't matter anymore.

What Sets Us Apart
The DELUNA KIDS DENTAL Difference
At DELUNA KIDS DENTAL, kids are truly the boss! We respect their wonderfully unique personalities, love their enthusiasm, and teach them to be strong advocates for their dental and overall health.
Dr. Ren De Luna and our team members enjoy getting to know each child in our care. We listen to them, encourage their questions, and celebrate their achievements. We're all passionate about helping children develop great oral health and positive attitudes toward dental care, which will last for their lifetime.
Our Office Environment
We understand that going to a new place can be scary for some children. We also know that some kids have heard frightening stories about visiting the dentist, and are reluctant to come see us. Our team has created a welcoming, fun space where children can relax and feel at home, the minute they walk through the door.
After being greeted by name and with warm smiles from our front office team members, your child is free to enjoy the coloring books, building blocks, and playhouse in our lobby. He or she will soon be talking and laughing with our other patients, who've learned that visiting us is nothing to worry about. In fact, we give kids prizes at the end of their visits!
Making a Child Comfortable
Many kids have a fear of the unknown. We understand this. So we take our time to explain all of our different technology and tools, to make the unfamiliar into something familiar and less scary.
We also talk with each patient before every procedure. We explain what we're going to do, why we're going to do it, and what's going to happen. Because we practice only painless dentistry, your child will learn that he or she won't feel any discomfort, ever.
For children who are particularly cautious, or have trouble sitting still for longer procedures, we offer both nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and general anesthesia options.
Schedule a Visit Today!
Our pediatric dental office in Vancouver, WA welcomes infants, children, and teens from Battle Ground, Camas, and surrounding communities. To learn more about the painless children's dental care we offer, and to schedule a visit for your child, please call.
Everyone at DELUNA KIDS DENTAL looks forward to meeting your child and welcoming everyone to our smile family. We'd love to start your son or daughter on the path to a lifetime of healthy, beautiful smiles!

text: I'm deciding between UC Berkeley and UC San Diego as my undergraduate college, both majoring in biology. I intend to move on to medical school after my undergraduate studies and become a doctor or work in the health field. Berkeley has the prestige and ranking as #1 public university in the world. How could I pass on that? San Diego has the reputation as one of the top biology-orientated schools in the world. How could I pass on that as a biology major? Campus-wise, Berkeley has beautiful Greco-Roman architecture, and San Diego has the weather and beach five minutes away. Atmosphere-wise, Berkeley is awfully competitive and stressful, and San Diego is laid-back but utterly boring. I live in San Francisco, but I wouldn't mind getting away, nor would I mind staying home. Which one?

The book dealt with some issues in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I found it compelling reading for that reason but the story line was interesting and captivating as are the story lines of all White's books. I have no idea whether or not White's reading of Mormon practices is accurate but it is interesting.

A drunk hairdresser spat at two police officers who tried to persuade him to wear a suicide-suit.
Martin Jackson, of Willow Grove, Baglan, Neath Port Talbot, pleaded guilty to two charges of assaulting police officers in the execution of their duty when he appeared at Haverfordwest magistrates court on Tuesday, September 11.
Vaughan Pritchard-Jones, prosecuting, told the court that Jackson, 35, was taken to Haverfordwest police station after being arrested for an unrelated matter on August 26.
"They had concerns about his mental state and wanted him to remove his ordinary clothing and put on what is called a suicide suit, so he could not do anything which could harm himself."
Jackson cooperated at first, but then assaulted PC Lees as he tried to persuade him to remove his trousers, and lunged towards him.
Jackson kicked out when placed on the floor and caught PC Lee's torso, however, the officer's robust clothing protected him from injury.
He then spat, catching PC Lee in his face and his colleague PS Mallin's uniform.
Mr Pritchard-Jones said: "The officer says he found it disgusting that someone would spit at him while he was carrying out his job at the police station."
Jonathan Webb, defending, told the bench Jackson had later been cleared of an incident which left him badly cut and bruised and led to his initial arrest.
He added that Jackson, who had some mental health issues, was intoxicated, 'aggrieved', and recovering from shoulder surgery when the officers took him to the ground in the approved Home Office manner.
"It's just basically the worst type of circumstances you could have, in temper he lashed out at the officer who had put him on the floor, and followed that up by spitting, which he says was disgusting, and he should not have done it.
"He apologises to both officers. This was out of character."
Mr Webb added that Jackson ran a hairdressing salon and beauty shop as part of a partnership and had recently opened a tanning salon.
"He is a hard-working business man who, in a moment of sheer madness, spat at a police officer."
Magistrates fined Jackson £156 and ordered him to pay £100 compensation to PC Lees, £85 court costs and a £30 surcharge.

This week: More 100 are dead in flooding in Afghanistan and Pakistan, including the capital city of Karachi, a flooding disaster declaration in Kansas, a chart of the drought on the Colorado River, FEMA's disaster mobile app adds crowdsourcing, and the FAA approves the first commercial use UAS.
Flooding kills more than 100 in Afghanistan, Pakistan (CBS)
Heavy rains that caused flash floods and collapsed houses in different parts of Pakistan have killed 53 people over the past three days, a senior disaster management official said Monday…
Flooding was especially bad in Pakistan's largest city, Karachi, because of the southern city's faulty drainage system, said Zia.
The same storm system swept across eastern Afghanistan before hitting Pakistan, leveling homes and killing at least 58 people in five provinces, while an estimated 30 others remain missing, officials said Sunday.
Pakistan's largest city Karachi paralysed by flooding (The Telegraph)
Heavy overnight rainfall in Karachi paralysed parts of the southern port city causing 14 deaths.
The rains, which started on Saturday, turned into a heavy downpour that inundated several areas of Pakistan's largest city…
Forecasters have warned of more rains in Karachi and other parts of Pakistan.
Disaster declaration in Hutchinson, Reno County [Kansas] as heavy rains trigger flooding (Kansas City Star)
The Arkansas River "is basically going to be in flood from Hutchinson downstream," she added. "This is going to be one of the more significant floods we've had in a long time" in the region.
Strain said Reno County residents talked of not having seen this kind of flooding since 2007.
The Little Arkansas River at Alta Mills in Harvey County reached 22.7 feet at 8:15 a.m., which is above the flood stage mark set at 22 feet. It was expected to rise to near 25 feet by early Monday afternoon.
Fourteen Years of Colorado River Basin Drought (inkstain)
2012 and 2013 are two of only four years since Glen Canyon Dam was completed with inflows less than 5 million acre feet
Only three of the 14 years from 2000 to the present have had above average inflows into Lake Powell
FEMA App Adds Crowdsourcing for Disaster Relief (Mashable)
The app's major new feature is called "Disaster Reporter," which allows users to submit disaster-related images to be publicly hosted on the FEMA website. You can add short text descriptions to photos, which then go through a basic approval process to ensure images are relevant and do not disclose any user's personal information. The images are then posted on a map for public viewing.
The FAA Approves the First Commercial Unmanned Aircraft Systems (Sensors & Systems)
The Federal Aviation Administration has issued restricted category type certificates to a pair of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), a milestone that will lead to the first approved commercial UAS operations later this summer…
Issuing the type certificates is an important step toward the FAA's goal of integrating UAS into the nation's airspace. These flights will also meet requirements in the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 that define Arctic operational areas and include a mandate to increase Arctic UAS commercial operations.

Shocking Video: Attacked by "Tolerance"(Peaceful Traditional Marriage Supporters Violently Assaulted)0 Comments Published by Office 2 August 27th, 2012 in A Call To Action, Atheism, Bible, Christian Church Issues, Christian Persecution, Courage, Family, Freedom of Religion, Politics, Prayer, United States of America, World News
Posted on August 04, 2012 by Maelstorm
In this newly released video, volunteers with the American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family and Property (TFP) describe how they were violently assaulted by pro-homosexual "marriage" advocates while promoting traditional marriage on college campuses and in the public square.
"That empty slogan about tolerance comes crashing down after you see how TFP volunteers were criminally assaulted by same-sex 'marriage' advocates," said TFP Student Action Director John Ritchie.
"The video speaks for itself. They don't tolerate God's marriage. In fact, our volunteers have been bullied, pepper sprayed, hit with glass bottles, sprayed with pesticide, punched, and spit on for peacefullystating that marriage iswhat it is – the unionbetween one man and one woman."

Pyeongchang, Republic of South Korea, 17 October 2014 – Despite increasing recognition of the biodiversity crisis and its impacts on human well-being, the scale of the government response is far from commensurate with the magnitude of the calamity, says IUCN, International Union for Conservation of Nature, at the 12th meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (COP 12), closing today in South Korea.
"This year's biodiversity talks ended with a renewed sense of urgency if we want to meet the 2020 biodiversity targets," says IUCN Director General Julia Marton-Lefèvre."Many creative and interesting responses to the biodiversity crisis have been showcased, highlighting how nature can provide solutions to so many of society's challenges. However, we will need to see a massive scaling up of the good work underway in the remaining years of this UN Decade for Biodiversity in order to have an impact."
The results of the fourth edition of the Global Biodiversity Outlook 4 (GBO-4) released at the opening of the meeting on 6 October showed that countries need to respond by strengthening biodiversity conservation measures and accelerating implementation of the Strategic Plan for Biodiversity, to bring about an improvement in the status of biodiversity.
The Plan, which includes a set of 20 biodiversity targets to be met by 2020, was agreed by most of the world's governments at the UN biodiversity summit in Nagoya in 2010. It represents the only global unified agenda to tackle ongoing biodiversity loss. This year's meeting showed that the response from governments has been 'business as usual' and many countries are still far from fulfilling the ambitions of that plan, according to IUCN.
The Conference also recognized the critical link between the loss of habitat and the emergence of infectious diseases such as Ebola, which is plaguing many parts of the planet, pledging to do more to make such links clear to the wider world.
"Biodiversity loss is linked to so many of society's ills, including increased frequency of natural disasters, climate change and food insecurity," says Jane Smart, IUCN Global Director, Biodiversity Conservation Group. "It is imperative that governments place biodiversity conservation far higher up the political agenda and convert the fine words and pledges made at this meeting into tangible action for the sake of life on earth."
The meeting saw the entry into force of the Nagoya Protocol on access and benefit-sharing, which will result in the enhancement of both monetary and non-monetary benefits to providers and users of genetic resources worldwide. It will also encourage further conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity.
Countries were urged to effectively "mainstream" biodiversity into other sectors, national development policies and planning processes, and to reiterate commitments for a substantial increase in funding for the implementation of the Strategic Plan. Parties promised to double total biodiversity-related funding or at least maintain current levels until 2020.

Ewa Magiera, IUCN Media Relations, m +41 76 505 33 78, email@example.com
Editor's notes:
Conserving the earth's most valuable natural places and promoting nature's solutions to global challenges is the focus of the IUCN World Parks Congress 2014 taking place in Sydney, Australia from 12 to 19 November.

Beyond configuration, accessing the switch's console port or connecting across the network, gives us both diagnostic and troubleshooting abilities. Depending on the nature of the problem, some of the following troubleshooting tasks may help when working with switches.
First, determine switch communication via ping, a Telnet session, a web browser, or an SNMP system. When there's no communication with a switch, the only communication possible is via the console port.
Most switch vendors offer a way to check the following:
- Port statistics: View port error and traffic statistics for abnormalities
- Port configuration: Verify speed and full-duplex operation.
- Port security: Check to see if the port is locked down to a particular MAC address.
- LEDs on the switch: Most vendors use LEDs for the ports on the switch. If it appears that they are continually flashing, a broadcast storm may be occurring.
- Lookup tables: View the MAC address entries in the lookup table.
- Port mirroring: Configure a port to connect an analyzer for viewing traffic going through the switch.

Best Recommendations for Mac Speeding Up
A fast, easy and flowing operation is a desire of each and every Mac user. However , as soon as you begin to work , you see that things are surely getting worse . If it is so , it is just the time you start a regular Mac cleanup .
Right now , we will give you an advice on what actions to take to make your computer sound and free of irrelevant junk. Check on most crucial recommendations for Mac cleaning:
- Organize your space.
Before you begin your work with Mac insides, it will be great if you could spare a couple of minutes to organize the outside space. Take a look at the cables and make sure there are not too many , get rid of the dust , and disconnect the spare Mac accessories. Even being unimportant , the mentioned measures will increase your comfort when working with your Mac .
- Clean system files and empty the trash.
Using the word trash, we don`t only speak about the very one which is stored in your Trash section .
At the start of every video section, wait a few seconds before you begin your speech.
You can find a lot of junk round your Mac, and these files appear to be the major reason of Mac`s slow-paced working. The essence of these files may differ : trash created by different applications , junk left from apps and programs that have not been fully removed ; broken downloads, etc. The main idea is that all of them are not in use anymore and only seem to be a heavy burden to your Mac . To set Mac free from these files, you could try to detect the junk manually ( that can be rather difficult if you are not a techie) or take the specially designed Mac cleaning solutions .
- Delete copies of mail attachments .
As usual, you presently have all the important attachments stored somewhere within your hard drive so it is of no use to have the mail attachments saved in both places . Saved enclosures need exactly as much disk space to make it difficult for your Mac to keep on the level . To erase them , find the Mail Downloads section and clean the unnecessary files away . Otherwise, in case you use an automatic cleaner, just start the program .
- Discover duplicates in iTunes and iPhoto .
These sections probably include duplicate files.
By with a couple software a company can quickly sort out their packages just.
With iTunes, it is easy to identify the copies using Options in case they possess the same track`s and artist`s name. Regarding iPhoto section, discovering the copies of photographs which are located in separate folders is almost the impossible task to do , except when you use a high quality Mac cleaner . In any case, your task is to remove the duplicate files; this process will definitely make your content better-organized and Mac quicker .
- Remove the broken files.
Among them, there may be one of the following : files defected by the malicious programs and apps, defected files which can`t be opened , interrupted downloads, etc. Not taking their previous importance into account , they are not effective right now, so why do you keep them?
- Clean the cache files.
All people who use a browser most probably have temporary files saved on their computers . Removing the disk parts which have temporary files will definitely produce a positive effect on your Mac overall performance and, additionally, taking this step will help to save an extra disk space.
- Keep regular .
Removing odd files too rarely is entirely wrong . There is a claim provided by Mac cleaner`s producers that a systematic cleaning is to happen once a week . Nevertheless , it too much depends on what you use your computer for and whether you are not careless . The most reasonable bit of advice will be "to clean as soon as it`s at least a little dirty ". Best sophisticated cleaning solutions give users a chance to monitor system operation, to detect aspects that need improvement in advance , and to clean Mac when it is truly necessary .
It is for sure that using the provided measures is less complicated when you take a system cleaner , but it is worth saying that not all the cleaners are alike .
Superman wouldn't be if it had been not just a sociopath to the limit.
To get an advantage from the cleanup and to achieve the ideal hard drive performance , you should better select from highly trusted and experienced products , such as CleanMyMac 3. Representing the third version of the highly trusted Mac cleaner in the industry , CleanMyMac 3 offers all the functions for quick and effective cleanup : this Mac cleaner needs a minimal attention of the user ; it is smart because it is able to discover which files can be securely removed; and the program is non-complicated .
If you know how much your time is worth and wouldn`t like to spend it on personal manual cleaning , select the trusted Mac cleaner and enjoy the cleaner Mac .
The group opposed the federal healthy, hunger-free kids act of 2010 because it feared it would impose untenable costs https://homeworkhelper.net/ for districts

It's Friday!!
That means, well, nothing. But we're excited anyway.
We took Pastor Willie to the airport at 6am this morning to go to an outreach in Cape Town. Must be tough, ministering in paradise.
While at the airport, we saw lots of white people wearing green and gold heading into the international terminal. That can only mean one thing. The Rugby World Cup starts today in France and South Africa, among the world heavyweights in rugby, will have plenty of rich white fans in attendance.
The US Rugby team? Well, they're in the World Cup as well, actually in the same group as South Africa so they'll play each other soon. Here's a quick preview: Some guy will break his collarbone in the first five minutes. Another guy will run with a white ball and smash a couple of other guys in the face and then they'll tackle him, breaking his collarbone. This will go on for about 2 hours and then one team will win, celebrating by looking like they're in slightly less pain than the losing team. Now you know.

Historic Landscape
It is probable that at the time the mission was established, a mixture of three plant communities occupied the site: a narrow plant community consisting of dense tangled thickets of willows, cottonwoods, wild dogwoods, blackberries, elderberries, and other species common to riparian areas probably occurred in the floodplains along the Walla Walla River and nearby Mill Creek; an association of perennial grasses, shrubs, and native forbs occurred on the hillsides where soil depths and drainage were greater; perennial grasses common to the Palouse dominated the rest of the mission site.

Kitten season is upon us! If you find very young kittens (feral) without their mother, leave them alone; their mother may be taking a break. If the mother does not come back, consider fostering them rather than flooding the shelter with kittens, since the shelter cannot handle them. Check out maddiesfund.org to learn how to foster kittens. Fostering can be a very rewarding experience.

SHOP TALK > Wrench Day
1" impact driver
(1/2) > >>
Anyone have a 1" impact driver I could borrow? Honda harmonic balancer bolts are a bitch!

Big torque wrench?

Do you have a compressor big enough to run it? BTW, I don't have one.
I have one but it takes the massive Milton fitting to run which I don't have anymore. I also got a 3/4 Ingersoll that might do the job for you.
Where are you located? I'm between Woodstock and Canton.
Yeah, I'm not even sure that a 1" impact would get it. We had a 3' breaker bar and a cheater bar on the end of that and it didn't even budge. The good news is once we got all the covers off. The timing belt that is in the car has been changed so it should be good to go for another 40K miles. If we still have the car then we'll figure it out. The only thing I didn't do was add heat. That would mean a new harmonic balancer since this one is rubber inside. Thanks for the offers of support and help.

ACC pays up for over 2000 scratched by cats
9:40AM Sunday Apr 12, 2009
Over the past three years more than 2000 New Zealanders have received ACC treatment after they were scratched by cats, according to figures from the corporation.
Figures released to the Herald on Sunday also showed 299 people received taxpayer-funded treatment after run-ins with sharp plants.
The newspaper said figures showed there were 2148 ACC claims for cat scratches which cost a total of $352,530, between mid-2005 and mid-2008. More than 600 of those claims were still active as at June 2008.
More than 4700 New Zealanders claimed for cat bites in the same three-year period at a total cost of more than $600,000 with 1619 of these claims active at June 2008.
The worst pets seem to be dogs - 17,359 people received ACC payouts after they were bitten by canines in the three years, at a total cost of almost $3.5 million.
ACC covers anything that comes under its definition of ``injury', including wounds, burns, strains, sprains, fractures, choking and poisoning.
But before pets get all the blame there were 101 active claims for human bites last year, costing just under $25,000 in ACC claims.
From here.

Today, Comic Kid posted the latest of many RTV sneak peeks.
Wednesday, December 30, 2009
Back to Reality
Well after much vacationing, I have again returned to Reality TV Island. I heard the local grocery store had some good donuts, I just don't know which kind to get.
COMIC KID The one and only Comic Kid at 10:03 AM
It seems like Comic Kid is at one of those rest stops next to a gas station. To be honest, these RTV sneak peeks don't really add up… how does a donut shop fit into a reality TV themed island? Maybe there's more to this island then we know. Also, I'm thinking of a contest to ring in the new year, so stay tuned!
Stanford3, signing out.

Microsoft's Xbox One does not have a release date yet but the company did announce that it will be released sometime in November.
Now, Sony announced the PS4's release date at Gamescom and it comes out on November 15 in the US and on November 29 in the EU, and if this Pepsico promotion is to be believed the Xbox One is targeted for late November.
The promotion reads:
"Xbox One has a targeted launch date of late November 2013; therefore, the initial shipments may be slightly delayed; please allow 12-14 weeks for delivery."
This may be a slip up but sounds highly accurate. The entire text of the promotion can be found below.

editing #2
Finished the paper edit of Jago. More to write, gaps to fill, then fix the text using the paper edit as a guide.
It's like, I've built the house, but I haven't installed the window frames or the doors, the floor beams are in, but not the floor, and the roof is mostly finished but not quite rain-secure.
And when I've done all that, before it's liveable, I need to decorate, and furnish.

Lehideux and Isorni v France
Lehideux and Isorni v. France (case no. 55/1997/839/1045, application no. 24662/94, Publication 1998-VII, no. 92), was a case heard by the European Court of Human Rights on punishing statements praising collaborators. In a judgement handed down 23 September 1998, the court has held by fifteen votes against six that the conviction of applicants for their article in favour of Philippe Pétain was prescribed by law and pursued a legitimate aim, but wasn't necessary in a democratic society and therefore violated Article 10 (freedom of expression).
Besides, the court has ruled that the case "does not belong to the category of clearly established historical facts – such as the Holocaust – whose negation or revision would be removed from the protection of Article 10 by Article 17" (Para. 47). In doing so the court has ruled that the protections in Article 17, the prohibition of abuse of rights, could restrict the right of free speech granted under Article 10.
This ruling has had a direct[citation needed] influence on International treaty law. The "Additional Protocol to the Convention on cybercrime, concerning the criminalisation of acts of a racist and xenophobic nature committed through computer systems" requires participating States to criminalize the dissemination of racist and xenophobic material through computer systems, as well as of racist and xenophobic-motivated threats and insults.[1] Article 8, Section 1 of the protocol specifically covers the denial of the Holocaust and other genocides recognised as such by other international courts set up since 1945 by relevant international legal instruments. The Council of Europe Explanatory Report of the protocol states "European Court of Human Rights has made it clear that the denial or revision of "clearly established historical facts – such as the Holocaust – […] would be removed from the protection of Article 10 by Article 17" of the ECHR (see in this context the Lehideux and Isorni judgment of 23 September 1998)".[2]

Feeling much better today post reaction, the days following epinephrine are usually rough. After I left the pool party yesterday it turns out there was some not so nice things said about me. These were along the lines of me overreacting and that I shouldn't have taken my epipen. Luckily this information got back to me through a friend. Anyways without getting into too much details, this really upset me. I am so frustrated with people not believing me and saying my allergies are just me panicking. I knew what I was feeling and I knew I needed my epipen. That is all that matters.. I am 17 and well aware when I need to take action to save my life in the event of anaphylaxis. I am not going to let this negativity phase me, but what I am going to do is share some tips on how I deal with these types of people!
1. Surround yourself with people who support you and care about you! Don't waste your time on friends, teachers, co-workers etc who down play your allergies!
2. This one is a bit tricky to do but if possible confront the person. If someone is downplaying your allergies they are most likely lacking awareness and knowledge of anaphylaxis. Educate them on allergies and why we have allergies! Make them realize the severity and that it is not just in our heads.
3. Believe in yourself! You are the one person who is living with your allergies and you know what you feel!
4. Remember that there is always going to be someone who doesn't understand! Remember the teen term of "haters gonna hate"!
Hope these tips help you as they do me! I am at the point where if someone wants to not believe me I could care less! All I am focused on is healing and resting up!

happy end of
June January... while we've had a few chilly days, we've really been spoiled with some pretty weather...just ask the bulbs that are up in our front yard and the sweet little crocuses that are blooming their little heads off... my hope, now, is one of two things... 1. the weather stays nice for a few more weeks so that i can enjoy the gorgeous flowers that i love so much, or 2. they can survive cold weather....
i'm thinkin' my second wish is probably not going to happen...if it snows, those sweet little greens will probably die :(
it's also hard for me to see February there in the date... Hannah's 1st birthday is so quickly approaching :( so bittersweet...
last week's Beef Macaroni Soup was pretty good...it was better as leftovers, i think...better taste! it would be really good with some cheese - maybe Velveeta? it reminded me of something nacho-ish (mine wasn't too soupy), minus the cheese...and with veggies... i added some garlic and onions to it, too... not bad and will make it again. :)
so this week... we're having some repeats from last week that we didn't get to... we had a few changes in our plans for eating, so i'm glad to have them this week :)
Sunday: scrounge...we had a big lunch at Hibachi (Chinese)...
Monday: cube steak, mashed potatoes, gravy, and corn
Tuesday: BBQ out (supposed to be 62*) - hot dogs and homemade mac n cheese
Wednesday: potato and onion omelets & toast
Thursday: creamy chicken pot pie - crock pot (adapted from the new Real Simple magazine)
Friday: leftovers or eating with friends
Saturday: leftovers or eating with friends
a decent week of meals, for sure :) looking forward to trying a new recipe while also eating some of my favorites, too :)
hope you all are having a great week :) enjoy the end of January...and just think: this week, we'll hear what the Groundhog is going to say about winter/spring... what would YOU like? snow? the same warm weather??? :) we shall see :)

Lived In
But, we're a home where children live,
We hold them very dear,
When the kids are gone, we'll clean them up,
Right now, we're playing ball
One day they're always underfoot,
Next thing you know - they're gone.
Right now this is where children live,
A loved and lived in home.
one of my "hang ups" is not having people over to spend time at our house because it's so...untidy. i lack hospitality, i guess... there seems to be clutter everywhere...not just kid clutter, but adult clutter, too... i can't stay ahead of the game, it seems...and when things seem like they're pretty neat and clean, within a day, the clutter seems to find its way back to the counters or side tables or kitchen table... :-\
we really need to simplify, too... we have too much stuff...
and, another thing that's the truth is that, in general, people don't really care or see what i see or think... in reality, i'm too critical about things that really don't matter all that much. :) i don't remember going to someone else's house and thinking, "oh geez, they have 4 magazines piled on their end table...how untidy." instead, i kind of get excited and ask if i can look at the magazines! :) i don't remember thinking, "man, their living room is cluttered with a lot of toys...." instead, i am usually impressed and, perhaps, overwhelmed, at how many toys kids can have and how awesome it is that a living room is really a LIVING room for a family... :)
it's important for people to feel like they can come into our home and enjoy themselves... and it's necessary for me to LET GO of the ideal that the house has to be perfect for friends. :)
yep, trying to teach this old dog new tricks... :)
Happy Friday :)

Beef Macaroni Soup
i found this recipe on Taste of Home's website... i think i will probably tweak it a bit, but it looks like it's a good soup...and fast to make, too! :)
if i remember, i will let you know how it is when i meal plan next week :)
give it a try, if you'd like :)
1 pound ground beef
2 cups frozen mixed vegetables
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) beef broth
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup uncooked elbow macaroni
In a large saucepan, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Stir in the mixed vegetables, tomatoes, broth and pepper. Bring to a boil; add macaroni. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 8-10 minutes or until macaroni and vegetables are tender. Yield: 5 servings.

my blog has tended to always be the "sharing" type...not too much introspection or "personal" stuff... i try to keep it pretty benign... i know i don't have a ton of readers...heck, maybe a handful, if that many... :)
but, today, i am taking a different approach... :)
we are part of a church that we love...a lot. ry and i have "struggled" a bit in the area of finding a place where we fit here in virginia... we have attended several churches in our almost *gasp* 12 years here... some we went to once...some had us in the pews for a year or so... but we never really found our place...where we wanted to spend our sundays...
and, while we find it
impossible difficult to get to church on time on Sunday (funny how a 3 year old wanting to set up her nativity set before leaving and refuses to get her coat on can be a challenge :)), part of me yearns for MORE time there...with the people... listening...worshipping...singing...learning...
our church is filled with wonderful people...we have a lot of work to do, socially, so we can meet more of them. :) but at the heart of the church is a talented and powerful pastor... interestingly, he was the pastor of another church we attended for awhile... we LOVED him and his messages, and he was even our marriage counselor before we tied the knot... but, well, we never found our place at the church he was pastoring way back in 2002 or 2003... but he, along with incredible musical worship, were the reasons we came back, week after week...
after we stopped going to this other church, we missed it and missed him more than anything... but, as with most things, time lessens the "yearning" and desire to find something that good again...
about a year and a half ago, i was reading the newspaper and saw who i thought was Lindsay, the pastor we loved so much... the article was about churches without a church home. he was in the Holiday Inn pool baptizing someone...and upon close examination and a look at the caption, i smiled, excitedly, and showed Ry my discovery. see, Ry had been to the church he pastored at for awhile and we attended, too, but he was sad to not find Linsday in the pulpit when he went back in 2010 and 2011... he asked about Linsday but was just told he was pastoring elsewhere...
so, when we found that picture in the newspaper, i got excited... :)
talk about awesome timing :)
i called the Holiday Inn, where All Points (the church) was meeting, as stated in the article, but they couldn't give us much information... i googled the church online and found out more... Ry went for the first few weeks to "test" the waters, if you will... i didn't know what to expect, and with a 2 year old, we weren't sure if there was a place for her, etc. and, well, i was also pretty pregnant with Hannah at the time (not like that should have mattered, really). and, i think, honestly, part of me was tired of "trying" a church and being disappointed......
after ry attended a service with Linsday at All Points, Lindsay instantly connected to us, which was great... he sent notes and communicated via email... i shared my feelings as to why we had moved away from his other church almost 10 years ago, the church which he was no longer affiliated with...
and perhaps one of the most amazing moments (one of many) was having Linsday come to visit us at the hospital on the day we were about to take our sweet Hannah home...(gosh, that was almost a year ago). i was so nervous about him coming to see me...i had just given birth a few days beforehand and didn't feel very "presentable." but how wonderful it was to see his face and hear his laugh that day... :) and to see him hold Hannah was such a blessing :) i had to kind of "force" him to take Hannah; he was afraid he was going to break her. :)
he came from a trip, which he had just returned from...and had trouble finding parking to be able to come up to see us...but he did it all anyway :)
and he prayed for us that day...
and he prayed for Hannah...
and he keep us lifted up in prayer at church...even when we weren't there (we have friends who told us)...
gosh, i was touched...
and, well, that was the beginning of a new page in our life... after a few weeks and Hannah got a little older, we started attending church at All Points as a family... and while we don't know many people there (our fault more than anyone elses), we love it there...and we love the people that we do know...and we can't wait to get to know everyone else, too...
and what i really love is that, when i leave our worship time on Sunday, i leave hungry for more... i leave having learned...and i leave with a pile of stuff to think about...
this Sunday was one of those days where i left with a pile of stuff on my mind...it was hard to not cry during communion on Sunday...talk about being emotionally overcome...
i had intended that this post be about our Sunday at church this week...but i felt the need to describe our history, church-wise... :) i'll write more about this past Sunday later..... 'cause right now, i just want to relish the fact that we have a fabulous church with a pastor who is on fire for God, preaches amazing messages and is, without a doubt, anointed with a gift that we share the benefit of receiving each and every Sunday...and for that, i'm beyond thankful :)
my heart overflows :)
it's a good thing :)

meals for the week: 1.22.12 through 1.28.12
seems like i just posted what we were eating last week... :) time flies, i suppose...
it's a weird food week for us... for some reason, nothing really "sounded" appealing as i was planning meals this week... i'm such a "mood" person when it comes to eating... :-\ ry is so good about things - he eats whatever is put in front of him, generally... i'm thankful for that! :)
believe it or not, i meal planned this afternoon, went grocery shopping, and then changed what we were having tonight :) figures, eh? :) really, i changed things b/c it was around 7 when i got home from grocery shopping, and it was too late to have what i had planned (story of my life...big plans, time changes them :)) and my plan for tuesday was changed at the store b/c they didn't have what i needed...
it's cold and icy/snowy today, too, and this week is going to be a bit warm... so, these choices are based on my icy views... :)
Sunday: grilled cheese (girls)/Marty's egg sandwiches for ry and me
Monday: beef stew
Tuesday: beef macaroni soup (will post on Tuesday)
Wednesday: pancakes
Thursday: leftovers
Friday: probably leftovers again
Saturday: out to eat?
sooo, there it goes :) we'll see how things pan out...after today, who knows what we'll eat :)
enjoy your week! :) hope that it's a good one for each of you :)

meals for the week: 1.16.12 through 1.21.12
we're trekking our way through the month of January. doesn't January seem to last forever? maybe it's the after-holiday slump? i don't know...but i feel like we're kinda just trudging along through this month... it's OK...i often say that i wish time would slow down a bit...so i will welcome the slowness of January :)
i'm still waiting for some snow... seriously, it was almost 60* here today... mother nature is a little confused... i'm beginning to wonder if it will get cold and snow, honestly, but i know we still have several more weeks left of "winter," so i will keep my fingers crossed for some fabulous white stuff SOON! :)
plus, having Ry off on Monday made us yearn for a little time off during the school week... :)
well, we're eating nicely this week... found a fabulous deal on pork tenderloin (buy one, get one free) at a local grocery store, so that kind of dictated a bit of our menu this week... :) plus, a mid- and end-of-the week meal with friends seems to chop things up a bit! :) looking forward to a break from the kitchen... :)
here's what we're eatin' this week... :)
Monday: pork tenderloin, potatoes, carrots
Tuesday: blintzes and leftover french toast casserole
Wednesday: open face pork tenderloin sandwiches & mashed potatoes, left over veggies
Thursday: out to eat with friends :) Mexican :)
Friday: leftovers or cube steak
Saturday: take out here with friends - Christmas with the Strongs
Sunday: cube steak (if not on Friday) or soup
hope you have a great week... :) it's almost half-over at this point...so enjoy the view from the "hill" as you slide down to the weekend! :)

meals for the week 1.9.12 through 1.15.12
before we talk about food... :)
we had our first "real" snow of the season here...nothing that's sticking around for long (supposed to be in the 50s tomorrow!), but it snowed and sleeted for the better part of the day...and it sure was pretty to look at! :) so exciting to finally see some of the "white stuff" around here...now we'll just pray for a snow day sooner rather than later! :)
i guess, technically, it wasn't the FIRST snow of the season...we had snow at the end of October... couldn't believe it was snowing when i was icing K's cupcakes and cake for her 3rd birthday party :)
here's the little snow man we built out on the deck (my sister in law and me) that night in October... he was a cute little guy :) love his pepper corn eyes, nose, mouth, and buttons :D
well, i haven't been too good with posting meals for the week... last week, i meal planned and didn't post... but we had another "ham" themed week to get rid of our THIRD Christmas ham :) we had homemade fried rice, leftovers, a rotisserie chicken, and macaroni soup with grilled cheeses. :) we were going to have omelets, too, but we ran out of ham! :) on another note, we're on a serious grilled cheese kick around here... :)
i am not sure what meal will be eaten on which day... we have a few things going on this week (Dr.'s appt., me working after school, etc.), and we're kind of "punting" with the schedule... sometimes we need to make something quickly when we didn't expect it... :) but, for the sake of "organization," i will put the things down on days i think we'll be having on the given day...
Monday: bbq chicken in the crock pot, scalloped potatoes, and french bread
Tuesday: hot dogs & mac n cheese & baked beans (for ry :))
Wednesday: french toast casserole (Pioneer Woman) :)
Thursday: tacos
Friday: leftovers
Saturday: we'll be attending a birthday party; not sure if dinner is provided or not... :) we'll be having leftovers if need be, however...
Sunday: not sure yet - something yummy, i hope! :)
thankfully, Ry has off on Monday for Martin Luther King, Jr. Day :) so glad to have a "long" weekend...there are so many projects i need to get finished that can really only be accomplished on the weekend when Daddy's home to be on kid duty :)
hope you all have a wonderful and fabulous week :) enjoy each other and keep smiling... :)

a little bit of heaven :)
i'm not a puffy marshmallow girl...
i love those freeze-dried marshmallows like you'll find in Lucky Charms...
and i may or may not have bought boxes of Lucky Charms just so that i could eat all the wonderful sweetness of a shaped marshmallow... :)
so, when chilly weather approaches, you know that i have to have the hot chocolate with the little marshmallows... :)
love those little fellas...
well, imagine my surprise when i was shopping a few weeks ago and found these...
yep, it's a whole container of those little, fabulous marshmallows like you'd find in hot chocolate...but we ALL know that there is NEVER enough of them in a packet of hot chocolate... :)
(i don't know why they're "Jet Puffed" brand because they are NOT puffed at all...)
