Watching Dave McClure‘s presentation today, I started to think about how a lot of the lean startup and customer development folks talk about creating the Minimum Viable Product (MVP), Release Early / Release Often, Product / Market Fit, Pivoting, etc., etc., but there’s very little talk about choosing your market or your product strategically. (At least not that I’ve noticed, feel free to correct me.) I’d like to read that blog post.
Minimum Viable Product (MVP) – Spend less on creating your product, therefore you are risking less time and money on a bad product.
Release Early / Release Often – Learn in small increments, therefore you are risking less time and money on a bad product.
Product / Market Fit – Either change your product to fit the market or choose a different market for your product before you start spending money on marketing, therefore you are risking less time and money on a bad product.
Pivoting – If you have a bad product, change it to something else.
Our mission is to provide real-world entrepreneurial experience that empowers youth from under-resourced communities to excel in education, lead in their communities, and succeed professionally.
If you count Mom and Pop shops, the average entrepreneurial venture requires about $25k in startup cash. Talking to Web 2.0 guys, it seems like everyone is out to raise a couple million to put their plans into action and pay their salaries during early stage growth. I was particularly struck by this article and Nivi’s responses which state you should raise “As much as possible“. I’ve also been advised more than once that I should look to add people to our advisory board who can introduce us to sources of possible funding (in other words: VCs and Angels). For better or worse, we’re bootstrapping for now.
A couple of things have led us to this decision and an understanding of when we’re going to have to change our minds.

Victoria Panova, Vice President for International Relations of Far Eastern Federal University (FEFU), presented recommendations of the Russian Federation to the BRICS Summit at the 10th BRICS Academic Forum, which took place in Johannesburg (Republic of South Africa) from 28 to 31 May. More than 100 experts from leading research centers in Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa discussed issues of education, economy, health, security, energy, and gender inequality.
Victoria Panova took part in the development of recommendations to the meeting of the leaders of the BRICS countries, to be held in South Africa in July 2018. The FEFU Vice President presented a report on the participation of women in political and civic engagement, education, and expanding their economic opportunities.
The expert noted that those proposals were put forward by the Russian side after the first International Women's Congress of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) and BRICS had been held in Novosibirsk in 2017.
The BRICS Academic Forum is an annual BRICS Think Tank Council (BTTC) scientific and practical conference on the 'academic track' of the BRICS countries interaction.

RPM-3D, Inc. was contracted to design the Smokey Mountain Herbal Snuff Racing Team Hero Card for Johnny Sauter to autograph and hand out in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series.
A photo was supplied of Johnny Sauter, however they did not have a current photo, so RPM-3D was tasked with photo-editing the entire Fire-Suit, Adding a Hat and all the logos in the correct placement areas on the suit.
RPM-3D, also did the 3D render of the Race Truck as well... Wanting to have a look and feel that was consistant with a brand that was born in the Smokey Mountains, RPM-3D designed this card to refect that while still promoting sponsors and providing information on the driver. | 2019-04-24T09:58:43Z | https://www.behance.net/gallery/35220683/Smokey-Mountain-Racing-Hero-Card |
Valeri is vexed…Body wash can cost $4 or more. Some shampoos cost .66 to .99 cents. Is there that much of a difference between the two products to justify the price? I use the shampoo for body wash.
Great question Valeri and an astute observation for even considering the possibility. The truth is that shampoos and body washes are so similar that they can be used interchangeably. In fact, in the early days of body washes it was not uncommon for a company to take its shampoo formula, put it in a different bottle, change the label and call it a body wash.
Let’s look at some of the things that the two products have in common.
1. Water & detergent. Shampoos and body washes are designed to clean which means they’re mostly water and detergent. And for cleaning oil off of surfaces nothing beats surfactants. Body washes like Dove, Olay and Herbalessences all use Sodium Laureth Sulfate. This is the same surfactant that many shampoos use.
2. Fragrance & Color. No differences here. Body wash and shampoo use the same ingredients to make the product smell good and look pretty.
3. Conditioning ingredients. Since detergents can be a bit harsh, ingredients are added to improve the after-feel of hair and skin. Often body washes and shampoos use the same types of ingredients.
While shampoos and body washes are quite similar there are some important differences.
1. Body wash uses less harsh detergents. Since skin is generally more sensitive than hair, body wash formulas are made with slightly less detergent and also less harsh detergents. The low cost shampoos use SLS or ALS which are excellent cleaners but can be drying to skin.
2. Different conditioning ingredients. Some of the ingredients that conditioner hair can also provide a nice feel on skin. However, many will not and this is often a key difference between shampoos & body washes.
A great comparison is to look at the list of ingredients of the Herbal Essences Body Wash versus their Shampoo. See the similar ingredients?
Companies have actually picked up on the similarities. In the Old Spice High Endurance Body Wash they show a guy washing his hair and body with the same product.
Shampoos clean and so do body washes. In general you’ll find it beneficial to use both a body wash and a shampoo. But there is really no reason you couldn’t use a shampoo to clean your entire body. If you use a daily moisturizer, then there is no need for a separate body wash.
For what it’s worth, there seems to be more than one opinion on this subject. I noticed I was getting styes all the time. So I went to my doctor and he confirmed that some people are just more prone to them. But he also said that wearing eye make up can exacerbate the problem. He suggested I stop wearing eye makeup for a while and see if it made a difference. I took his advice and my styes virtually vanished. I get one only about two or three times a year now. So I would say there can be a definite correlation. (Btw, I was using high quality eye makeup when I was getting the styes, so that doesn’t necessarily matter.) Anyway, hope this is helpful.

I'm a lover of nature, specially I love mountain landscapes. Would France been good to live and work in? I would travel alone and my stay would be indefinite.
Hi, It's pretty difficult to get a working visa for France but if you can get one, it's a good place to live and work.
Beautiful landscapes, and historical monument to visit, everything is full of history, more than 2000 years of history to endurstand, Paris was created 58BC.
Some country services will be picked up directly from your salary, like health insurance, retirement allocations, unemployed allocation, familly allocation etc. If you negociate a salary of 40k€/year (called brut salary) you will really have in your pocket 30k€/year (called net salary). You have to know that every salary is negociate as "brut" salary.
You will have to had on the previous taxes salary taxes wich correspond to one salary per year so it's gonna be 30k€ / 12.
Then you will have a job in France congrat.
If you want moutain and live cheap, you can try to get a job in Pau You have to know that if you want to get a working visa, it can be easier to get it in a company based in Paris.
After almost two years living in US, I feel like France is a way better because of health insurance and you do not need a car to go everywhere but that's my personal opinion.
I hope all those infos helped you.
I lived in Dijon for a while and loved it. Because Paris is such a monster city in size, we tend to not realize that the other cities in France are quite large too. Lyon, Dijon, Orleans (Centre), Lille, Nantes are all truly lovely cities-full of culture, wonderful people and great food...and surrounded by beautiful landscapes. I would be happy to live in any of them!
Getting a work permit will prove difficult, as well as getting a job. The social taxes are astronomic, so most employers are not hiring right now. France is a great place to work, IF you can secure a job. And for this, you will need a work permit. Unless you have a EU passport, or come from North Africa, this is not easy. | 2019-04-23T18:54:34Z | https://www.trippy.com/question/France-Is-it-good-to-live-and-work-in-France---Tell-me-why |

Fieldset tags are kicked out of the table because they're not inside a td.
This div shows what happens if you use <fieldset> between pseudo-table classes for table and row (in this case, <div class="t"> and <div class="r">).
Fieldsets also result in indentation relative to non-fieldsetted rows. You can compensate for that in CSS. For example, you can have a <div class="nofieldset"> that you set to have the same padding-left as fieldset's padding-left plus border-left, which you also control in CSS to eliminate cross-browser incompatibilities. Then just alternate your grouped rows between <fieldset> and <div class="nofieldset">.

This popular chocolate cups are so easy to make that it would be silly if you wouldn’t try making it. These chocolate cups are riched with almond butter and coconut. You are free to use other nuts but WeBeingFit here suggests you to use almonds as it is high in vitamin E and calcium. We are also using coconut as it also high in magnesium and fiber.
In a food processor, blend almond butter, coconut oil, stevia and coconut until well combined.
Heat a saucepan and melt the chocolate.
Put 1 tablespoon of the coconut mixture into each of the 3-4 muffin tins.
Pour evenly the melted chocolate on top of each muffin tin.
Use a knife to remove each Almond Butter Chocolate Cup from the tin.
You can substitute shredded coconut with slivered almonds.
As these cups are sugar-free and gluten-free so this all needed by a diet conscious person who likes chocolate but also wants to stay fit. This is the perfect DIY recipe whenever you crave for something sweet yet healthy and also if you host a party is recipe is a must add to your menu. It has been approved by people of all age groups. | 2019-04-24T22:00:18Z | https://www.webeingfit.com/recipes/sugar-free-almond-butter-chocolate-cups/ |

Mallorca is one of Spain’s islands in the Mediterranean sea. Famous for it’s stunning and inspiring nature it is quite filled with tourists, but it seems that there is space and place for more or less everyone. If you go outside the biggest cities, you’ll find wild nature, many beaches to choose from within reachable by car or bike distances, affordable tasty Spanish food and a variety of accommodation. And of course, many hiking opportunities and some pilgrimage routes.
Before visiting it for the first time, the exiting fact about Mallorca was that it has a pilgrimage route. The less exiting reality was that it is unfortunately too hot to walk it in July (and August, best times for hiking are months between April and June, and then September through October). The temperatures were around 28-34 C so the beach and the clear blue water was the only choice. However, the beautiful everywhere island is definitely in the future travel plans. So is the Lluc monastery – the sacred destination for pilgrims in Mallorca.
According to the legend, in the area where the Lluc monastery stands today, a statue of the Virgin made of dark wood was found by a local Arab shepherd boy, a recent convert to Christianity in the 13th century. The boy brought the statue to the church but it miraculously got back into the cave where it was found. After the third time it did so, the local priest recognized that the statue needs to be left in the place where it was found and a shrine was built there. The boy’s name was Lluc and that’s where the name of the monastery comes from. (I would say this legend has some similarities with Tenerife’s Virgin of Candelaria).
Today the Lluc monastery is open for pilgrims and hikers visiting Mallorca as its surrounding area offers many hiking possibilities. You can find all the information about routes and book accommodation via official Lluc monastery website (also in English).
Palma de Mallorca – Lluc: if you choose to walk the entire route of ~42 km you need to start at Plaça Güell in Palma. There is also a traditional night pilgrimage that starts at 11 p.m. in Plaça Güell on the first Sunday of August each year.
Sóller – Lluc: you can catch an old wooden train from 1912 (timetable) in Palma and then take the Pilgrim’s Trail from Sóller. The route is ~25 km long therefore pilgrims usually stay overnight at Tossals Verds refuge and reach the Lluc monastery the next day. There is a bus operation from Lluc to Palma de Mallorca (with a connection at Inca).
Pollença – Lluc: or vice versa, you need to follow the Dry Stone Route also known and marked as GR221 route (stage 6). This stage is ~12 km long, easy hike from Lluc to Pollença but steep climb if you go from Pollença to Lluc.
Selva – Caimari – Lluc: would be a shorter day-walk of couple of hours to the monastery starting either from small town of Selva (~12,5 km), or Caimari (~8 km with 5 % ascend).
Cami De LLuc: recently created chain of routes to promote the pilgrimage as a slow way to travel the island. The seven routes (Ruta de Ses Salines, Ruta de Manacor, Ruta d’Arta, Ruta d’Alcudia, Ruta de Formentor, Ruta d’Andratx, Ruta de Palma) are marked with heart shaped stone signs and each of them goes through the historical and natural places of Mallorca to the monastery of Lluc. Each route has a short description on the Cami de Lluc project website (in Catalan, Spanish, English and German). You can also buy a more detailed books for each of the routes and some music created to listen while you walk there. | 2019-04-25T14:05:20Z | https://allaboutpilgrimage.com/2018/07/25/mallorca-has-a-pilgrimage-too/ |
If you are thinking of moving to Sandhutton or just want to know a what the area is like, the statistics on this page should give you a good introduction. They cover a range of socio-economic factors so you can compare Sandhutton to figures for North Yorkshire and nationally. These statistics can tell you if Sandhutton is an economically deprived area and how hard it might be to get a job.
The respondents of the 2011 Census were asked to rate their health. These are the results for Sandhutton. The percentage of residents in Sandhutton rating their health as 'very good' is more than the national average. Also the percentage of residents in Sandhutton rating their health as 'very bad' is less than the national average, suggesting that the health of the residents of Sandhutton is generally better than in the average person in England.
These figures on the claiming of benefits in Sandhutton come from the Department for Work & Pensions and are dated . They can often be a good indicator of the prosperity of the town and possible indicator of how hard it would be to get employment in the area. The rate of unemployment in Sandhutton is both lower than the average for North Yorkshire and lower than the national average, suggesting that finding a job in this area maybe easier than most places. The rate of claiming any benefit (which includes in work benefits) is more than 10% lower in Sandhutton than the national average, suggesting higher salaries than the average in the area.
These statistics are for the highest level education obtained by the residents of Sandhutton and are from the UK Census of 2011. Sandhutton has a lower level of residents with either no qualifications or qualifications equal to 1 or more GCSE at grade D or below, than the national average. Sandhutton also has a high level of residents with a higher education qualification (level 4) than the national average, suggesting that the residents of Sandhutton are better educated than the average England citizen.
These figures for Country of Birth for the residents of Sandhutton are from the UK Census of 2011. Since Sandhutton has a higher level of residents born in the UK than the national average and a lower rate of residents either born in other EU countries or outside the EU, it does not have a significant immigrant population.
The population of Sandhutton as a whole, is older than the national average. The population of Sandhutton is also older than the North Yorkshire average, making Sandhutton a older persons location.

Freedom and Flourishing: What implications does 'monitory democracy' have for the survival of democratic institutions?
What implications does 'monitory democracy' have for the survival of democratic institutions?
I ended my last post promising to consider whether John Keane’s observation that we now have ‘monitory democracy’ has implications for the relationship between the responsibilities and effectiveness of government, and hence the survival of democratic institutions. Can monitory democracy be expected to move political systems towards or away from equilibrium between effectiveness of government and the responsibilities that government is expected to perform?
First, who is Keane and what does he mean by ‘monitory democracy’? John Keane is professor of politics at Sydney university and author of a major history of democracy, ‘The Life and Death of Democracy’ (2009), a book over 1,000 pages described by one reviewer as not ‘for the faint hearted’. (Unfortunately, I can’t claim to have read it.) In an article in the Griffith Review, Keane argues that from the middle of the 20th Century representative democracy began to transform into monitory democracy – a new historical form described by ‘the rapid growth of many different kinds of extra-parliamentary, power-scrutinising mechanisms’.
‘The combination of monitory democracy and communicative abundance … produces permanent flux, an unending restlessness driven by complex combinations of different interacting players and institutions, permanently pushing and pulling, heaving and straining, sometimes working together, at other times in opposition to one another’.
In considering what implications monitory democracy might have for the survival of democratic institutions it seems to me to be worth recalling Joseph Schumpeter’s view, discussed here recently, that democracy is essentially a leadership contest in which the role of citizens ends after they have cast their votes. The reality of democracy, as described by Keane, is light years away from Schumpeter’s view that democracy can only succeed if voters refrain from trying to tell politicians what to do after they have been elected.
How does monitory democracy actually impact on the balance between the responsibilities and effectiveness of governments?
Some of Keane’s comments suggest that monitory mechanisms might have a positive impact on the effectiveness of government. He points out that, ‘when they do their job well, monitory mechanisms have many positive effects, ranging from greater openness and justice within markets and blowing the whistle on foolish government decisions to the general enrichment of public deliberation and the empowerment of citizens and their chosen representatives through meaningful schemes of participation’. On the other hand, he suggests that nobody ‘should be kidded into thinking that the world of monitory democracy … is a level playing field – a paradise of equality of opportunity among all its citizens and their elected and unelected representatives’.
This does not provide strong grounds for confidence that monitory democracy improves the effectiveness of government.
How does monitory democracy impact on the scope of responsibilities that governments are expected to perform? The discussion in a recent post about voter irrationality seems highly relevant. There is evidence that voters who say that politics is ‘not at all important’ to them are more likely than others to say that ‘the government should take more responsibility to ensure that everyone is provided for’.
On that basis, monitory democracy could be expected to thrust more responsibilities on governments than they can cope with effectively. This raises serious questions about the ability of democratic institutions to survive.
However, as more people perceive that existential threats are facing democratic institutions they might form new interest groups to foster norms of behaviour that might enable better outcomes to be achieved. Under favourable conditions monitory democracy might prove to be a system with self-correcting characteristics. If influential interest groups can form around the survival of some threatened species of animals, is it not reasonable to expect that stronger and more influential interest groups might form when social institutions that make a valued contribution to human well-being are seen to be threatened?
I would like to draw attention to relevant comments by kvd and Jim Belshaw on Jim's blog. Jim now also has another relevant post: What would you nominate as the most asinine slogan?
Neil Whitford is not faint hearted. He has read and reviewed 'The Life and Death of Democracy'.
Apart from the feeling that the term 'monitory' is quite clunky and far too close to monetary, I get the feeling with some of these labels that they get a life of their own. That is to say, once nominated, they become 'an issue' where perhaps previously none existed?
Think of when 'Gen X' appeared, then how it spawned the rest of the alphabet soup - each without much clear or logical distinction that I can see; more rather a progression.
Thanks for your further comment, kvd.
I also have problems with the terminology. For my purposes it might be better to just talk about the characteristics of modern democracy.
In trying to argue that a new form of democracy has emerged it makes sense for John Keane to invent a new label. But 'monitory' does seem confusing. | 2019-04-20T11:15:19Z | https://www.freedomandflourishing.com/2012/07/what-implications-does-monitory.html |
RAMALLAH, October 6 (JMCC) - Post your message on a Dutch website for 30 Euros and you will soon find it painted on the Wall that Israeli has constructed through the West Bank.
A project initiated by Palestinian and Dutch youth groups called sendamessage arranges the transaction and most of the money is said to go to projects in the West Bank.
Of course, doing the Banksy is not legal.

COLUMBUS, Ohio – Ohio State starting pitcher Dan DeLucia went the distance for his second complete game in a 4-1 victory over Illinois in the opening game of a Big Ten series Saturday at Bill Davis Stadium. The Buckeye offense backed him up with 13 hits to improve to a conference best 4-1.
DeLucia, a junior from Columbus, Ohio (Bishop Watterson) pitched all nine inning and equaled a career high with nine strikeouts against three walks. He allowed just the one run on six hits to improve to 5-1 this season. His five wins lead the Big Ten.
The Buckeyes supported DeLucia’s left arm with 13 hits and started the scoring in the first inning. It was the 15th game this season the Buckeyes had scored in the fifth inning. They have outscored their opponents 32-13 in the opening inning.
Ohio State scored twice in the bottom of the first inning to take the early 2-0 lead. Jonathan Zizzo (So., Youngstown, Ohio/Sarasota [Fla.]) led off the inning with a single to center field and went to second on a sacrifice bunt by Matt Angle (So., Whitehall, Ohio/Whitehall-Yearling). Zizzo went to third on fielder’s choice by Eric Fryer (So., Reynoldsburg, Ohio/Reynoldsburg). That put runners at the corners for Ronnie Bourquin (Jr., Canton, Ohio/Canton South), who sent a ball to the right-field corner to plate both base runners.
Fryer launched his third home run of the season against the wind out to left field and gave Ohio State a 3-0 lead.
Illinois (14-10, 2-3) got that run back in the top of the fifth inning on an RBI single down the left field line by Ryan Snowden. Ryan Hastings led off the inning with a single to left before a foul out and a ground out brought Snowden to the plate with Hastings at second. The Buckeyes (17-6, 4-1) turned a lead-off hit by Bourquin into their fourth run of the game. Jedidiah Stephen (Sr., Caldwell, Ohio/Shenandoah) singled through the left side to put runners at first and second. J.B. Shuck (Fr., Galion, Ohio/Galion) bunted both runners into scoring position before Bourquin scored on a ground out by Adam Schneider (Jr., Agoura Hills, Calif./Agoura) to give Ohio State a 4-1 lead.
Jason Zoeller (Jr., Verona, Pa./Shady Side Academy) finished 3-for-4 in the game, while Bourquin was 2-for-4 and drove in two runs. Angle, Fryer and Stephen had two hits and Fryer and Schneider added RBI. Chase Kliment was 2-for-4 to lead the Illini.
The teams will play another game Saturday before concluding the series with a doubleheader Sunday at 1:05 p.m. All three games will be broadcast on AM 920 WMNI. | 2019-04-26T12:42:59Z | https://ohiostatebuckeyes.com/delucias-complete-game-nets-4-1-osu-win-vs-illinois/ |
Not all foods from our childhood are created equal. For every successful product, there was a one-hit wonder that disappeared as soon as we hit puberty.
3. Tivoli Ice Cream Bar.
6. Magnolia’s Golden Nangka Fiesta Ice Cream.
7. Nestlé Non-Stop Ice Cream.
10. Magnolia Chocolait (in bottles).
14. Coney Island Ice Cream.
Chocobot is best remembered as the brave candy brand who tried–but failed–to dethrone Choc Nut as Philippines’ favorite chocolate.
Kids from the ’90s would swarm nearby sari-sari stores to have a handful of Chocobot, famous for its Transformers-inspired packaging.
Not only did we buy it to taste the signature chocolate-peanut candy, but also to (hopefully) win a raffle of some sort. Remember the “Better Luck Next Time!” printed inside its wrapper? We never figured out what the mystery prize was because Chocobot soon vanished without a trace.
Royal Sparkling Soda was born when San Miguel Brewery first ventured into the production of non-alcoholic, carbonated beverages.
Also known as carbonated water, a sparkling soda is made by dissolving carbon dioxide in water. The chemical reaction produces a bubbly water which creates an illusion that it “sparkles,” hence the name.
In the 1940s, Royal Sparkling Soda—advertised as “perfectly carbonated pure mineralized water”—came in green bottles shaped like bowling pins. Over the next decades until the product’s demise, the soda bottle transformed both in terms of design and color—from green to clear and back to green again.
In its heyday, Tivoli was known as the “ice cream ng masa” because of its affordability. It became the staple of our childhood summer merienda and we didn’t care if it dripped onto our school uniform as long as we enjoyed its creamy goodness.
Manufactured by Consolidated Foods Corporation (which later merged with John Gokongwei’s Universal Robina Corporation), Tivoli ice cream was made from the only ISO-certified ice cream plant in the Philippines.
The brand suffered lack of innovation and several disputes with suppliers and dealers. In the end, the cost of the ice cream skyrocketed while its supply dwindled, giving the brand’s international counterparts an opportunity to dominate the local ice cream market.
If you’re looking for one of the most, if not the most, unpopular soft drinks in the history of local soft drinks, look no further than Yes Cola. However, the thing that made it notorious also made this now-defunct soda brand memorable.
So what’s wrong with Yes Cola? As some of the ‘60s and ‘70s kids would recall, each bottle of Yes Cola cost 15 cents. And as they always say, you get what you pay for.
The locally-made soda, unlike other more popular brands, had a weird aftertaste. Its variant, the Apple Sidra soft drink, had the same issue: some displeased customers said it tasted like gasoline!
In 2006, the popular fast food chain McDonald’s added an East-meets-West product on its menu. They christened it “McRice Burger” and soon hit the stores in Taiwan and Singapore before being launched in the Philippines.
McRice Burger was based on the idea of creating a rice meal that Asians would enjoy anywhere without the use of utensils.
Rice patties, which served as hamburger buns, were made from fragrant white rice. They were toasted to perfection and topped with black and white sesame seeds for that extra aroma.
McRice Burger came in two variants: Beef Supreme and Chicken Supreme. Some consumers welcomed the idea; Filipinos, after all, won’t survive a day without eating rice.
Sadly, they were outnumbered by those who thought it was a lame alternative to a regular rice meal, pushing the burger to the ever growing list of discontinued McDonald’s products in the Philippines.
If there’s one thing that could explain Magnolia’s staying power, that would be its innovative ice cream flavors. In 1954, for example, the company launched the popular “Flavor of the Month” which, as the name suggests, introduced a different ice cream flavor every month to its Filipino consumers.
The ice cream flavors born during this era ranged from the traditional to downright exotic: Chico, Choco Pretzel, Sweet Corn, and Banana Split, among others. Another memorable flavor was the Golden Nangka Fiesta which combined fruit salad and langka (jackfruit) to create a mouth-watering dessert ideal for fiestas and other special occasions.
Magnolia’s “Flavor of the Month” set the standard for the company’s future product innovations such as the Sorbetes line of the 1980s, which used Philippine fruits and nuts, and the recently launched “Best of the Philippines” line, which pays tribute to different Philippine provinces and their native delicacies.
Once upon a time, Magnolia joined forces with Nestlé Corporation to manufacture some of the most unique ice cream products Filipinos had ever tasted. Nestlé Non-Stop ice cream was one of them.
Marketed specifically to teenagers, the defunct Nestlé Non-Stop was a three-layered ice cream in a cup generously topped with marshmallows, chocolate syrup, and crushed nuts. It also came with a free wooden spoon.
Some of the most memorable flavors include the Choco Banana Split and the limited-edition Black Desire ice cream (see photo above) which was used to promote the blockbuster movie Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.
Back when one peso was more than enough to buy yourself a merienda or school snack, Fress Gusto was the real deal. A bottle of this root beer soda, which only cost 25 centavos (later increased to 30 centavos), was a perfect companion for your favorite hopia.
And who can forget that Mexican-inspired TV advertisement for Fress Gusto in the 1970’s?
Little did we know that the young kid who popularized the tagline “You’ll like it very mucho!” would later dominate the local music industry as the one and only Gary Valenciano.
We don’t consider Storck as a favorite childhood candy, but rather as an ‘adult’ candy we were once forced to eat. Whether as a remedy for motion sickness during a long trip or as an instant breath freshener, Storck was the menthol candy of choice back in the day.
Storck outsold all its competitors, so much so that it was being exported to the U.S. by the mid-’90s. And then the unthinkable happened: the U.S. Drug Administration discovered in 1996 that the foil-like wrapper of Storck menthol candy had a high amount of lead–toxic enough to cause long-term learning and behavioral problems, among others.
Storck Products Incorporated (SPI), the company behind the candy, refused to back down.
With the help of a toxicologist, they let the public know that there’s no scientific evidence to prove that lead from the wrapper could be absorbed by the candy.
However, the damage had already been done. Rebisco soon took over the struggling company and the Storck we once loved was renamed Starr.
Nothing beats the original. And this is true with Magnolia Chocolait which came in mini glass bottles long before the company decided to put it in tetra packs.
Everything about the old Chocolait screams “natural.” It was made from all-natural cow’s milk blended with high-grade chocolate.
To enjoy its creamy goodness, you had to put it in the fridge for a while (or longer if you preferred it frozen). The chocolate part would settle at the bottom of the bottle so you had to shake it well before drinking. Hearing that trademark pop when opening the paper lid would signal you to start gulping it down.
By the late 1960’s, Chocolait was sold at around 50 centavos. Choco-Vim, a similar yet cheaper chocolate-milk drink, cost 35 centavos.
Both were manufactured by Magnolia; Chocolait was sold in square squat bottles while Choco-Vim came in straight-sided ones. The latter eventually phased out, while the former evolved and remains available to this day.
Kids who grew up in the ’80s and ’90s remember Sunny as the poor man’s fruit juice. One bottle could be diluted with water to produce several glasses of fruit juice. For this reason, it became a staple of parties and other special occasions.
Schoolchildren would often bring Coleman jug containing this juice as baon. Some public school teachers, on the other hand, made sideline business out of selling this cheap thirst quencher to their students.
Manufactured by Food World Inc., this defunct juice concentrate came in different flavors such as orange, grape, strawberry, and ice cola. An advertising jingle which aired in the noontime show Eat Bulaga! made the product even more memorable.
But as much as we wanted Sunny to stay in the market, there was just something too ‘artificial’ about its taste. This and the rise of higher quality products that overshadowed it ultimately sent Sunny to the graveyard.
Moonbits was the forgotten Pinoy chocolate candy that once competed with Nips and M&M’s. They were button-shaped candy-coated chocolates manufactured by the defunct Filipino company Serg’s.
Founded in 1954 by Anton Goquilay, Serg’s Products Inc. was named after Anton’s son, Sergio. Its unique brand of candy bars dominated the market for decades. In the 1980’s, however, the growing discontent with the Marcos administration forced the Goquilays to migrate to the United States.
When Sergio left his teaching job in the US and returned to the Philippines, he brought his father’s company back to life. Serg’s Chocolates once again captured the heart of the Filipino market. However, the success was short-lived.
When the 1997 Asian Crisis hit the Philippines, the beloved chocolate company was not spared. Several debts and labor disputes later, Serg’s filed for bankruptcy.
Just like Sunny, Julep entered the market when most people preferred juice concentrate over powdered form. It came in different fruity flavors, too: grape, strawberry, orange, lemon-lime, and punch.
Although not much is known about when and how Julep disappeared, we can only surmise that it shared the same fate with Sunny.
Contrary to popular belief, the Coney Island Ice Cream was an all-Filipino brand. But kids who grew up loving its incredible lineup of ice cream flavors didn’t care–they just craved for it.
We’ll never forget the bubblegum-flavored ice cream with real bubblegum bits as well as New York! New York!, Pistachio, Mint Chocolate Chip, Choco Pecan Nut, and the iconic ice cream sandwich that started it all–Eskimo Roll.
The carnival-themed ice cream brand was introduced to the market in the 1970’s by Seamark Enterprises, a company owned by the Trillana – De Ocampo families (the same people who gave us Whammos and Go Nuts Donuts).
Seamark was later bought by Purefoods, but after a brief stint in PBA (there was, in fact, a basketball team named “Coney Island Ice Cream Stars”), the brand simply disappeared. | 2019-04-19T08:45:28Z | https://filipiknow.net/defunct-filipino-foods/ |
There was a correlation between chiropractic care and subsequent vertebrobasilar artery (VBAI) stroke in persons <45 years, but a similar association was seen in patients receiving general medical practitioner treatment. This may be explained by patients with VBAI dissection-related headache or neck pain seeking care before having their stroke.
We will take great care when adjusting your patient. There are a variety of technical procedures for adjusting the neck.
If any neck pain patients do not respond to the first few treatments, I will let you know. Case series of chronic whiplash patients have shown they can improve their symptoms with chiropractic care (Injury, 1996). A marked increase in symptoms would contraindicate further treatment with that type of manipulation.
Ask how I examine patients, and whether I feel x-rays are needed to screen for instability or anomalies. If your patient responds positively to treatment, this would justify continued care, provided there is gradually less weekly frequency. Six to eight adjustments in the first two weeks would not be unusual. This frequency would be rare for a patient in the second month of care.
Published articles and books concerning the healing of injured soft tissues (Oakes 1982; Roy and Irving 1983; Kellett1986; Buckwalter/Woo 1988, Majno 2004) indicate that the time frame for such healing is approximately one year.
Needless to say the difference between a recovery time of 4-8weeks and 12 months dramatically impacts both clinical practice and expected outcomes.
Healing Takes Place In Three Specific Phases.
This phase will last approximately 72 hours. During this phase, after the initial injury, an electrical current is generated at the wound, called the "current of injury."
This "current of injury" attracts fibroblasts to the wound (Oschman,2000).
Because there is disruption of local vascular supplies, there is insufficient availability of substrate (glucose, oxygen,etc.) to produce large enough quantities of ATP energy to initiate collagen protein synthesis to repair the wound.
During the regeneration phase the disruption in the injured muscles and ligaments is bridged. Some references call the regeneration phase the phase of repair, which creates confusion about the timing of healing (Jackson,1977).
"Repair" connotation is that the process has completed, which, as we well see, is not the case. The fibroblasts manufacture and secrete collagen protein glues that bridge the gap in the torn tissues. This phase will last approximately 6-8 weeks (Jackson, 1977).
In 1975, Stonebrink addresses that the last phase of the pathophysiological response to trauma is tissue fibrosis. Boyd in 1953,Cyriax in 1983, and Majno/Joris in 2004 note that there is tissue fibrosis subsequent to trauma.
In addition, Cyriax notes "fibrous tissue is capable of maintaining an inflammatory response long after the initial cause has ceased to operate."
Since inflammation alters the thresholds of the nociceptiveafferent system, physical examinations in these cases will show these fibrotic areas display increased sensitivity, and digital pressure may show hypertonicity and spasm.
One of the conclusions of this study is that the patient's symptoms would not improve after a period of two years following the injury.
It is established neurologically (Wyke 1985, Kirkalady-Willisand Cassidy 1985) that when a chiropractor adjusts(specific directional spinal manipulation) the joints of the region of pain and/or spasm, that there is a depolarization of the mechanoreceptors that are located in the facet joint capsular ligaments, and that the cycle of pain and/or spasm can be neurologically aborted. This is why many patients feel better after they receive specific joint manipulation from a chiropractor following an episode of increased pain and/or spasm.
So Many Patients Suffer From?
A good explanation is found from Gunn (1978, 1980, 1989). He refers to this type of pain as super sensitivity.

"People in charge of organizing the summer school they are all quite welcoming. There wasn't anything really to worry us about. We didn't have to feel homesick at all. I liked this about the summer school. I finally got to learn something that we don't do at our university. Certain aspects of the studies that I didn'd like back home before coming, I actually enjoyed. Some of my friends were like truely jealous about the fact that I can come. And I am like they should definitely come next year if they can."
"I didn't really have any specific expectations coming to this school but I think even if I did they would have surpassed them all. I mean just the amount of effort and time all the oganizers put in to make you feel comfortable and at home from the beginning is amazing. I actually study Laser Physics so I didn't really have a lot of knowledge about the topics that would be coming. But I still learned so much and all the lecturers and speakers are really open to discussions and questions which is great. It's a really full-rounded program, not only academically but also culturally. It is just a lot of fun and the month flew by."
"I am really happy that I did this program 'cause it was a nice opportunity to meet other students from around the world. And it also provided a nice introduction to String Theory and Particle Theory which I wouldn't get to learn till a little later."
"I got to spend four beautiful weeks in this city with oher students from eleven different nationalities. We also had a lot of extra curricular activities. We had a day trip to Lübeck, a day trip to Berlin, classes on German culture and German language. For me it was the whole experience. Learning about German culture together with very strong physics education." | 2019-04-26T06:11:30Z | https://www.uni-hamburg.de/en/internationales/studieren-an-der-uhh/summer-schools/testimonials.html |

I'm building my own routing engine - which means I'm not using any of the routing frameworks for OSM.
So far I've built a graph with edges and vertices.
I'm parsing all the ways that are highways (I'm not taking areas).
My question is: how can turn a way into an edge (with one only two nodes, one defining the start and one defining the end) and remove all the ones in the middle? What approach has developers taken with this problem?
You could of course have a look at the existing routing engines which you don't want to use, each of which have solved that problem in one way or the other.
The question that you have been linked to in the post you reference above actually contains the answer. Re-read it: How can I convert an OSM XML file into a graph representation?
I was looking for an explanation that's a bit more low level.
Can you be more specific? Which parts are unclear to you? Where are you stuck? | 2019-04-24T16:14:03Z | https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/40827/osm-routing-turning-one-way-into-an-edge |
Monarch Airlines has put on extra flights to eight popular destinations due to high demand for travel to summer holiday hotspots.
There will be an extra four weekly flights to Gibraltar from Luton Airport from May 27.
The extra flights will be good news for many working in the tourism sector, such as travel insurance companies.
The airline has also said it will put on an additional two flights per week from the Bedfordshire hub to the Spanish holiday destinations of Mallorca, Malaga and Alicante, as well as Dalaman in Turkey.
An additional weekly flight from Luton to the Turkish resort of Bodrum and Faro will take off from Luton from May 27.
Anyone living in the north of England thinking about getting some sun in Cyprus, will be interested in the news that there will be an extra weekly service from Manchester Airport to Larnaca on the island.
There will also be an extra 16,000 seats made available on Monarch flights from Gatwick to Malaga, Mallorca, Larnaca, Lanzarote, Faro and Alicante for the summer.
Managing director of Monarch, Kevin George, said: "Bookings for summer are already up 27% compared with the same time last year with demand from customers still increasing, so we are delighted to respond to this by adding over 135,000 additional seats to our flying programme this summer season." | 2019-04-25T23:44:09Z | https://www.world-first.co.uk/home/news/monarch-puts-on-more-summer-flights$32900.aspx |

"He just knocked, that was all, knocked at the front door and waited, like the fourteen years since the night I’d killed my mother hadn’t happened at all…"
Fourteen years ago Jinx’s mother was brutally murdered in their East London home. Overwhelmed by the part she played, her whole life has been poisoned by guilt. Then, out of nowhere, Lemon arrives on her doorstep. An old friend of her mother’s, he wants to revisit the events leading to that terrible night, forcing Jinx to finally confront her past, and offering her the possibility of redemption alongside the pain of remembrance. Estranged from her husband and detached from her son, Jinx knows that this is her only chance to make her confession and end the emotional paralysis that has blighted her life.
But Lemon has his own secrets to share, and over the course of one weekend they unravel an unforgettable family drama, stoked with violence and passion. Rich with voices from East London and the West Indies, Edwards’s narrative is delivered with a unique and uncompromising bite that announces a new talent in British fiction. | 2019-04-23T15:13:01Z | https://themanbookerprize.com/books/cupboard-full-coats-by |
Some time ago there was a discussion about iPhone’s ring/silent switch and the way it does not mute some of sounds. Namely, it doesn’t mute timers and alarms, music and video. So only the sounds you don’t control and don’t explicitly ask for (i. e. calls, texts, emails, other notifications) are muted. Turns out, some people don’t like this behavior and would prefer the switch to just mute everything. I’m with Guy English here: I don’t want anyone but the alarm clock to wake me up.
But some say, well, if it’s a matter of personal preference, why couldn’t this have been optional? Obviously, there’s already way too much stuff in Settings app and adding even more options is a bad idea. And Apple is famous for not liking options. But there’s a reason, I’ve found, why adding this option would be a particularly bad one.
On a MacBook there’s no way to choose what it does when you close the lid, it just goes to sleep. On Windows notebook this is a matter of user preference. Some prefer their machines to continue working after being closed, and it makes sense if you want to, say, download an HD movie overnight. Why not add this setting on a Mac?
As a Mac user I would not welcome this setting. Having no choice means closing the lid is a reliable way to sleep my notebook. I just close it, I don’t have to double check before putting it into a bag. It won’t drain my battery or overheat just because I forgot to change the stupid setting. It will go to sleep (there are some smart exceptions which are irrelevant in this discussion). On Windows you are never sure. You can’t rely on a notebook to do the right thing. You have to double check every time.
If there were a way to choose whether ring/silent switch mutes all sounds or just calls and notifications, I’d never be sure my alarm would wake me up. I would have to double check this setting every time. And one day I will oversleep and miss an important meeting. Who would be to blame?
So sometimes “optional” means “unreliable”. I wonder if readers could provide more examples of this. | 2019-04-23T20:19:51Z | https://ilyabirman.net/meanwhile/all/optional-unreliable/ |
It’s been a slow couple of weeks on the blog because I’ve been busy with a few projects, plus work and life in general sometimes interferes. I’m still reading, or rather listening, but haven’t had much time for writing or commenting. Even Weekend Birding has taken a break, and that rarely happens.
A couple of new additions this week, both non-fiction.
Dataclysm: Who We Are by Christian Rudder from Crown.
In the Kingdom of Ice: The Grand and Terrible Polar Voyage of the USS Jeannette by Hampton Sides from Random House Audio.
A white-knuckle tale of polar exploration and survival in the Gilded Age.
Both books look very intriguing in different ways.
Both very interesting, but what pretty flowers!
I’ll bet the Rudder book is very interesting (and would probably make me a little anxious, ha).
I’ve only read one Sides book – The Ghost Soldiers – but I really liked it. I’ve got to get going on another one.
This will be my first book by the author, but I’ve seen so many glowing reviews about his writing that I wanted to give this a go. And if I’m going to read about ice and snow, it needs to be well before winter arrives!
I am intrigued by Dataclysm…thanks for sharing…and I love the way you’ve arranged them with the flowers.
Thanks! My flowers are one of the many reasons I love summer.
I am curious about Dataclysm. Enjoy both of your new reads.
In The Kingdom of Ice looks very interesting.
Lovely photo of your new books! I’ve also been taking break from blogging this summer.
They both sound good and I hope you enjoy them!
For some reasons, I don;t think these would be for me. Hope you love them though. | 2019-04-23T14:49:27Z | https://undermyappletree.net/2014/08/25/mailbox-monday-august-25th/ |
On April 4, 1975, Bill Gates and Paul Allen founded Microsoft. The small firm used to develop and sell BASIC interpreters. Little did they know that in the next 40 years, their company will become the biggest software firm in the world, and also bag the title for one of the most valuable companies.
Today, there is a little bit of Microsoft in everybody’s life. Whether it is the desktop computer where Microsoft’s Windows has about 90 percent market share or the company’s Office which is unarguably the best productivity suite available. Maybe you are into gaming and own an Xbox One, or your company relies on Azure cloud services.
In the last 40 years, Microsoft -- which once used to sell program language interpreters -- has expanded into several categories, and now makes full-fledged operating systems for not just desktop computers, but smartphones, gaming consoles, servers, as well as Internet of Things devices. Surface tablets and Xbox consoles show the company’s side interest in developing its own hardware modules.
"Early on, Paul Allen and I set the goal of a computer on every desk and in every home. It was a bold idea and a lot of people thought we were out of our minds to imagine it was possible. It is amazing to think about how far computing has come since then, and we can all be proud of the role Microsoft played in that revolution", Gates wrote in an email sent to all Microsoft employees yesterday.
"In the coming years, Microsoft has the opportunity to reach even more people and organizations around the world. Technology is still out of reach for many people, because it is complex or expensive, or they simply do not have access. So I hope you will think about what you can do to make the power of technology accessible to everyone, to connect people to each other, and make personal computing available everywhere even as the very notion of what a PC delivers makes its way into all devices", Gates noted.
"Under Satya's leadership, Microsoft is better positioned than ever to lead these advances. We have the resources to drive and solve tough problems. We are engaged in every facet of modern computing and have the deepest commitment to research in the industry. In my role as technical advisor to Satya, I get to join product reviews and am impressed by the vision and talent I see. The result is evident in products like Cortana, Skype Translator, and HoloLens -- and those are just a few of the many innovations that are on the way".
And this attitude was the reason Windows Phone 7 -- arguably Microsoft's first real take on a mobile operating system-- wasn’t released until 2010. By this time, iPhone had showed its dominance in the world, and Google was upping the ante with Android. Windows Phone is still struggling to gain any substantial market share. The mobile platform still has a wide "app-gap" problem, though the company seems to have found a couple of ways to fix it.
But one of the most exciting things that happened in the company was its decision to open up. Under Nadella, Microsoft finally accepted that it doesn’t have a significant user base in smartphones. The company realized that if it didn't open up to rival platforms, it would miss out on a lot of users. And that’s one of the first things Nadella did after taking the charge of the company. Microsoft launched Office on iOS. Until then Office was only available on Windows, Windows RT, and Windows Phone, and a half-baked mobile version on Android.
The move received an overwhelming response from users, resulting in Office apps -- Word, Excel and PowerPoint -- top the app chart in within 24 hours of their release on the platform. Late last year, the company made premium access to the Office suite free on iOS and Android. Office for iOS was in the works at Microsoft for a long time, but Ballmer used to prioritize its products on Windows devices first. Nadella evidently changed that.
"We have accomplished a lot together during our first 40 years and empowered countless businesses and people to realize their full potential. But what matters most now is what we do next", Gates writes in his email. Microsoft does have a lot of things to look forward to in the coming months and years. Later this year, Microsoft will release Windows 10 for desktop computers, as well as smartphones, IoT devices and Xbox One. In the coming months, Microsoft will also release the next iteration of its productivity suite, Office 2016. For the first time, the company is simultaneously releasing Office on OS X and Windows.
Additionally, Microsoft has showcased a number of products that could change the way we compute and interact with technology. Its augmented reality headset HoloLens is just one example. It will be interesting to see what the company does next and how things work out for it in the coming years. | 2019-04-22T04:54:20Z | https://betanews.com/2015/04/04/microsoft-at-40-more-open-bold-goes-where-users-are/ |

After having to look this up a couple of times now, I figured I’d share my approach. While you currently can’t technically style previous sibling elements, I’ve figured out a pretty handy workaround.
Suppose you have a progress bar with steps that you want to style. You want the active step to be highlighted and all the steps before it as well (to denote that those steps are completed). Prettying up the active step is easy, but how do you handle the previous steps? You actually style the previous steps by styling the following steps.
Let me show you what I mean….
First, let’s get our step navigation built and styled.
The HTML is simply an unordered list with five list items – the first of which has an “active” class. The line between them is actually one solid line that goes behind all of the steps, added using the CSS “:before” pseudo-element and positioning it in place.
Now that the HTML and basic CSS are in place, we can think about how to style the active and completed steps.
You could change the active class of these steps in many different ways, but I’m going to keep it simple for this example.
When you click on one of the steps, the “active” class is removed from all of them and then re-added to the one that was clicked.
Again, you could change this class position in many, many different ways, but I’m trying to keep it simple.
Here’s the real secret to this whole process: you actually need to style the steps following the “active” step, not the previous ones.
Using the “~” sibling selector, we can style all the elements after the “active” element. All we need to do is style ALL of the elements as though they’re active, and then go back and style all the elements after the “active” one as though they are the normal state.
This is exactly what I did (although a bit more complex) with my CSS-only star rating pen. | 2019-04-25T14:09:08Z | https://mburnette.com/blog/style-previous-sibling-elements-css/ |
Unlocking student talent is an approach to personalizing learning? In brief, it’s about putting kids first by giving them “voice and choice” in their own learning. Integrated into the 21st Century classrooms of differentiated learning that vary the “pace and face” of instruction to target the individualized differences. These purposefully-designed student-centered classrooms, encapsulate the accepted concept of personalizing learning. It is when these three components intersect, differentiation, individualization and student-centeredness.This is the next generation of the differentiated classroom and the added refinements are clearly outlined: Personalized learning adapts a metacognitive approach that fosters self-direction, self- monitoring and self-evaluation. In essence, personalized learning is student ownership. However, this new model is guided by motivating factors that ignite, invigorate and instill the learning, as well as fostering, metacognitive, reflective, coaching and feedback. Personalized learning means greater student achievement through self-determined change (interests), challenge (goals) and choice (methods). In short, the thrust is to engage students in ways that they become the “stewards of their own learning”.
How do we prepare our students for the test of life? We teach them how to learn when they are not being taught! In other words, we give them the gift of self-reflection, self-awareness, self-initiative, self-direction, self-assessment and self-regulation – the gift of knowing when they know, and when they don’t know. Metacognition: The Neglected Skill Set for Empowering Students, is written with the teacher in mind. It is more practical than theoretical, but most definitely grounded in research findings and connected to emergent data. With the 30 ready-to-use metacognitive strategies in this book, teachers will deepen learning for their students through explicit reflections on planning, monitoring and evaluating their own work. As students learn how to “think about their own thinking”, they become more aware and, thus, better able to make adjustments on their own work. They gain a sense of ownership, and teachers get results they can count on through students empowerment. Metacognition is like magic for 21st century classrooms – it changes student behaviors before your eyes.
Thinking About Thinking in IB Schools: How We Know What We Know.
The quintessential question, “How do we know what we know?” seems to drive the quest for high performing learners to learn more, dig deeper, explore, investigate and in the end, be able to validate and justify. With rigorous principles paralleling the International Baccalaureate curriculum framework, (as well as other recognized curriculum frameworks) drive that inquiry. While “knowledge comes on the coattails of thinking, the Theory of Knowledge approach extends this, as students dig into the evidence-based scenarios about, ”How we know what we know”. This professional learning enhances the work of students with the depth and breath of mega-thinkers. It supports the remarkable curriculum work, with complementary discussions and exercises that provide that added, oomph! Grounded in principles of curiosity, confidence, connectedness, reasoning, communication, reflection and open-mindedness, practical threads of thinking, practicing and performing are ever-present. Empower students with lifelong skills that will impact every sector of their lives.
Real world application drives 21st Century, academic learning. In this generation, students don’t learn to do they do to learn. They live in a fast-paced society and are impatient with the slow and steady rhythm of the traditional classroom. How do significant curriculum shifts toward a more relevant, rigorous, inquiry-oriented approach occur within this assessment-driven culture? How do teachers guide kids to dig into authentic problems? How do they support “high-tech” applications in a digital-rich classroom? How do they foster collegial, “high-touch” teamwork on projects and papers? How do they challenge students with rigor in “high-thought” explorations, investigations, and experimentations? “The times, they are a changing”, and they are changing at breakneck speed. How do we, as leaders, retool schools to meet the challenges in relevant ways?
Nuggets of info and some great tools . . .the takeaway strategies that can be applied in the classroom immediately w/o a lot of changes to lessons will be all helpful in adding deeper critical thinking. Joey Dale, Middle School.
It's time to transform instruction with enriched Problem-based Learning in a Nutshell Here is the big secret about PBL . . . It’s not that complicated! Moving toward relevance in the curriculum that uses 21st Century, real-world applications, student inquiry models are front and center-problem-based, project, and service learning experiences are among the most frequently cited. It’s efffective to get started with tools already familiar to teachers today: graphic organizers, essential questions, rich and relevant content, rigorous thinking skills, digital-rich tools for searching and researching, collaborative team work and presentation skills. Simply put: PBL is like DIY (Do It Yourself) projects- Do It-to-Learn-It, 21st Century methodology, rather, than Learn It-to-Do-It, 20th Century traditions.
Great job of not being an educational “expert” yet, being an entertaining presenter. Wish more people had you background and experience to share with teachers. Alice McKay, High School English.
Using the Three Story Intellect to assure teachers that students are moving through the three levels of thinking-gathering, processing and applying, students learn to think more deeply. As they become more aware of their thinking, confidence increases dramatically, and the shift from the teacher-directed classroom environment to a student-centered culture of respect, responsibility and reliability is the ultimate goal. Learn how to teach kids to think, critically and creatively. Help students begin earlier, rather than later, to adapt self-dispositions of mindfulness that prepare them for test of life. Grounded in 21st Century thinking processes: productive problem solving, mindful decision-making and creative innovation, students develop awareness and control of their own actions, words and deeds.

First and foremost, Robin and Brian, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! You really provided a new set of eyes for our Instructional Leaders. Your professional learning engagement is literally the TALK OF THE TOWN TODAY! Folks have actually thanked me for PD, which in my world, does not happen all that often!!! Even have Administrators asking for professional books/resources for their toolboxes!!! Talk about "use the next day strategies!" Saw it in action for myself today! Here is how you know that you hit a home run...we held a mini-conference today and the presenters left your session on yesterday and went back and reworked their presentations for today.Marcella Heyward-Evans, EdD Chief Instructional Officer.
Who’s Doing the Talking: Is the Brain Engaged?
Invite! Excite! Ignite! is about that mysterious, magical, confounding, frustrating, exhilarating, important, and misunderstood profession of the classroom teacher. Three million teachers currently work with 50 million students in US k12 classrooms. NCES.Gov, 2015. Among these dedicated teachers, many find that their most valuable help, often comes from other teachers, the teacher across the hall or down the wing a ways, or through chance meetings in the teacher workroom. This book is for them. It consists of ideas, strategies, quotes and notes from thousands of teacher-to-teacher interactions.
It was such a pleasure to see you work with our teachers last week. What a very talented and professional pair you are. I know our district's students will benefit from your shared expertise. I am so glad we found you.- Shelly Smede-Director of Staff Development Idaho Falls, ID. | 2019-04-20T10:16:52Z | https://www.robinfogarty.com/twentyFirst.html |
The democratization of data is a real phenomenon, but building a sustainable data democracy means truly giving power to the people. The alternative is just a shift of power from traditional data analysts within IT departments to a new generation of data scientists and app developers. And this seems a lot more like a dictatorship than a democracy — a benevolent dictatorship, but a dictatorship nonetheless.
These individuals and companies aren’t entirely bad, of course, and they’re actually necessary. Apps that help predict what we want to read, where we’ll want to go next or what songs we’ll like are certainly cool and even beneficial in their ability to automate and optimize certain aspects of our lives and jobs. In the corporate world, there will always be data experts who are smarter and trained in advanced techniques and who should be called upon to answer the toughest questions or tackle the thorniest problems.
Last week, for example, Salesforce.com introduced a new feature of its Chatter intra-company social network that categorizes a variety of data sources so employees can easily find the people, documents and other information relevant to topics they’re interested in. As with similarly devised services — LinkedIn’s People You May Know, the gravitational search movement, or any type of service using an interest graph — the new feature’s beauty and utility lie in its abstraction of the underlying semantic algorithms and data processing.
The problem, however, comes when we’re forced to rely on these people, features and applications to decide how data can affect our lives or jobs, or what questions we can answer using the troves of data now available to us. In a true data democracy, citizens must be empowered to make use of their own data as they see fit and they must only have to rely apps and experts by choice or when the task really requires an expert hand. At any rate, citizens must be informed enough to have a meaningful voice in bigger decisions about data.
The good news is that there’s a whole new breed of startups trying to empower the data citizenry, whatever their role. Companies such as 0xdata, Precog and BigML are trying to make data science more accessible to everyday business users. There are next-generation business intelligence startups such as SiSense, Platfora and ClearStory rethinking how business analytics are done in an area of HTML5 and big data. And then there are companies such as Statwing, Infogram and Datahero (which will be in beta mode soon, by the way) trying to bring data analysis to the unwashed non-data-savvy masses.
Combined with a growing number of publicly available data sets and data marketplaces, and more ways of collecting every possible kind of data — personal fitness, web analytics, energy consumption, you name it — these self-service tools can provide an invaluable service. In January, I highlighted how a number of them can work by using my own dietary and activity data, as well as publicly available gun-ownership data and even web-page text. But as I explained then, they’re still not always easy for laypeople to use, much less perfect.
Statwing spells out statistics for laypeople.
Can Tableau be data’s George Washington?
This is why I’m so excited about Tableau’s forthcoming IPO. There are few companies that helped spur the democratization of data over the past few years more than Tableau. It has become the face of the next-generation business intelligence software thanks to its ease of use and focus on appealing visualization, and its free public software has found avid users even among relative data novices like myself. Tableau’s success and vision no doubt inspired a number of the companies I’ve already referenced.
Assuming it begins its publicly traded life flush with capital, Tableau will not just be financially sound — it will also be in a position to help the burgeoning data democracy evolve into something that can last. More money means being able to develop more features that Tableau can use to bolster sales (and further empower business users with data analysis), which should mean the company can afford to also continually improve its free service and perhaps put premium versions in the hands of more types of more non-corporate professionals for free.
Tableau is already easy (I made this) — but not easy enough.
The bottom-up approach has already proven very effective in the worlds of cloud computing, software as a service and open-source software, and I have to assume it’s a win-win situation in analytics, too. Today’s free users will be tomorrow’s paying users once they get skilled enough to want to move onto bigger data sets and better features. But the base products have to be easy enough and useful enough to get started with, or companies will only have a lot of registrations and downloads but very few avid users.
And if Tableau steps ups its game around data democratization, I have to assume it will up the ante for the company’s fellow large analytics vendors and even startups. A race to empower the lower classes on the data ladder would certainly be in stark contrast to the historical strategy of building ever-bigger, ever-more-advanced products targeting only the already-powerful data elite. That’s the kind of revolution I think we all can get behind.

Great article Derrick – appreciating your work on the topic here on GigaOm.
We’re seeing wider availability of reasonably priced BI and visualization software tools to help us understand that harnessing all this data is possible – and I think even consumers are beginning to understand the value of all the data, and the ability to make meaning from it. One part of the puzzle that’s missing from what I can see is the education – knowledge transfer of how individuals can use the tools, what good data science methods are, and how data citizens can actively contribute to the larger data analysis community. I see movements like the Open Data/Open Gov folks, and events like the NYC Big Apps hackathon as part of the solution – but as individuals, where do we go to take part? What is the role of an informed, curious citizen in this? More venues exist for learning some of the ‘how’ to make sense of big data as an individual taking a course online, but I’m not seeing a vision from anyone talking about how to connect all of the dots. To make sense of data, we need the tools, the practitioners, the analysis of the problems, but we also need a vision of how all of these will work. If anyone has ideas of who’s got that vision, I’d love to hear it.
I feel one of the biggest impediments to the democratization of data is access. Most people know what they would like to answer, and how the data needs to be shaped to achieve that, but getting the data to do the actual analysis with can be one of the most difficult aspects.
This is a bit of a plug, but we’re working on enabling data access that is easily attainable by everyone. Our platform http://www.quandl.com is a “search engine for data” that is able to fetch time series data from a disparate sets of sources, and provide it in a simple searchable form that allows users to extract, validate, format, merge, graph, and share it however they want.
By providing the underlying data for analysis tools like Tableau, Statwing, and many others, we feel we can help to create the tool stack that empowers people to create a sustainable DIY data culture.
In every company I’ve worked at, I’ve seen this major divide between IT analysts and Business users. Part of it was cultural, but a major reason was as you point out: “a historical strategy of building ever-bigger, ever-more-advanced products targeting only the already-powerful data elite”. The business user typically was left to use Excel to prepare and analyze data.
It took 15+ years, but thanks to new players like Tableau, Spotfire and Qlikview which were sold primarily to the business user and focused on ease of use, the data democratization process has resulted in a power shift to the business user. Some IT departments have now come around and are trying to accommodate these “shadow IT” projects by providing IT support and giving Tableau users limited access to enterprise data stores.
As for upping the ante for the traditional players, it has happened already. Over the last two years, the larger vendors have responded with products like Visual Insight (MicroStrategy), Visual Intelligence (SAP), PowerPivot (MicroSoft), JMP (SAS) etc. taking aim at this segment of the market. The Big Data market is still new, but the trend to build user-friendly (or at the very least, SQL-aware) tools on top of Hadoop is also hitting its stride.
One good thing coming out of this data democratization is the realization that it has to be supported by a Data Governance effort. Otherwise we’ll see the unfortunate return of a major problem with data democracy: data chaos. Previously it would have meant comparing and reconciling two Excel spreadsheets, now we may end up reconciling the findings from two Tableau workbooks.
Thanks for the comment, and for making a really good point about data governance. Obviously, that’s not too big a concern for personal data use, but competing findings from lots of disparate data sets would be problematic. | 2019-04-19T20:42:48Z | https://gigaom.com/2013/04/07/we-need-a-data-democracy-not-a-benevolent-data-dictatorship/ |
Evaluating the benefits of digitising its menu boards, the John Lewis Partnership instructed Digital Media Projects Ltd (DMP), a technology company based in Harrogate to create a digital signage concept for its flagship Oxford Street store. Replacing typed A3 boards, diners visiting The Place to Eat restaurant, the Brasserie, the Bistro and the Coffee Shop now make their selection from 25 x 23” EX231W and two x 46” P461 NEC screens positioned alongside each serving section. The signage on these screens, powered by DMP’s digital signage solution can be created, amended and deployed from anywhere with an internet connection using their unique web-based Creator and CMS.
John Lewis Oxford Street, situated in London’s premier shopping district, offers seven floors of the best in fashion, home and technology, and is the largest of its 35 stores throughout England, Wales and Scotland. The Place to Eat, located on the store’s fifth floor, offers customers a superb panoramic view of the West End with seating for over 300 diners. Whilst The Place to Eat is a shopper’s restaurant within a department store, even the most discerning diners are attracted by the variety and quality of the food, accompanied by the high level of service synonymous with John Lewis. The Brasserie and Bistro on the third floor offer more upmarket meal choices with waited tables, and the fourth floor Coffee Shop provides a range of quick pick-me-ups for tired shoppers.
The retailer’s focus has always been on high quality and excellence of service, and they felt the digitisation of menu boards would not only create a more pleasant environment, but it would also allow them to make regular amendments and improvements to the choice of food served in the four establishments. Removing the reliance on printed materials meant they could react much more quickly to availability of ingredients and customer demand.
Before the digital signage system was installed, each restaurant entrance and serving area listed the day’s menu selection on a number of A3 boards. The production, distribution and fitting of traditional menu boards is costly. The boards at John Lewis need to be frequently updated to display the current menu selection to satisfy regular diners and reflect the changing seasons, for example, Mediterranean salads in the summer months and warming soups and stews in the winter. The menu selection available at various serving stations changes over to reflect the time of day, such as breakfast, lunch and late afternoon meals.
In discussions with the Head of Catering at John Lewis, digital signage specialist DMP and installer MVS Audio Visual involved NEC in order to identify the most appropriate display for the installation. The NEC EX231W met John Lewis’ expectations of image quality and reliability. The 23inch screens also matched the dimensions of the traditional A3 size signage which fitted within the restaurant environment. With 100mm 4 point VESA mounting and an ultra-light weight design, the EX231W allows for simple installation, from walls and ceilings in portrait or landscape to suit the location of the menu board. Low wattage LED backlight technology keeps power consumption and heat generation to a minimum. NEC NaviSet software enables centrally controlled asset management keeping maintenance costs to a minimum should the estate be expanded to include further sites.
A total of 27 NEC screens were installed by MVS Audio Visual throughout John Lewis Oxford Street. The solution consisted of 15 EX231W LED screens on the serving gantries and two P461 screens at the entrance to the Place to Eat, two EX231W displays outside the Brasserie and three outside the Bistro. Finally, six screens were installed in the Coffee Shop, three at the entrance in portrait orientation and three on the serving gantry in landscape. Each screen lists the appropriate menu selection alongside the price which is controlled and updated centrally by John Lewis through DMP’s web-based Content Management System (CMS). Strong contrast and appropriate screen brightness on the digital menu screens give diners a quick and easy reference from which to make their selection. John Lewis benefit from reduced costs associated with the production of traditional signage and huge potential by offering a more varied menu and special promotions, in addition to the ability to instantly react to market conditions and customer demands. | 2019-04-22T02:54:31Z | https://www.nec-display-solutions.com/p/be/fr/seemore/casestudies/dp/Products/Shared/CaseStudies/JohnLewis/JohnLewis.xhtml |
Get it right round you, you Ayr p***ks.
Keep it cool big boy.
It wasn't just the unadvertised £22 entry - it included a bloke on take at the turnstile. Gave him £50 three notes and says loudly "Two please" and he give me some coins in change and then claims I had only paid for one. Only after a protracted argument and support from the queue behind me (thanks) he relented.
Wee Ayr getting big big massive Dundee United so riled. Gorgeous.
After the game, Jamie's Chippy up on the Clemington Road. Very decent fish supper - fish cooked to order - £6.30. Better!
Sincerely hope no ayr fans have to declare themselves bankrupt after being made to pay 2 whole pounds more than they expected.
Yeah, all reasonable businesses add 10% onto the advertised price.
Look on the bright side, one way or another you probably won’t have to come to Tannadice next season.
Just watched the goals again. Pav’s was right in front of where we sit; it looked s beauty at the time and looks even better in replay. McMullan deserved his for his industry and taking a chance.
Safranko and Clark leading a 4-4-2 until we’ve secured second place.
4-1-3-2. Why not, so long as we score one more goal than the opposition and with that formation/team we could.
I thought Robson was poor last night until he went to left back. I might be tempted to go with Pawlett on the left, McMullan on the right, Robson to left back in place of Booth. Harkes was poor first half past night but that was uncharacteristic. He and Butcher are generally a very good pairing.
I thought you two at least would have picked up on the sarcasm.
I’m disappointed that you were being sarcastic.
Too subtle for me, I'm afraid. | 2019-04-19T13:07:20Z | https://www.pieandbovril.com/forum/index.php?/topic/260756-the-battle-for-2nd-on-friday-night-football-dundee-united-v-ayr/&page=19&tab=comments |

John Beilein and the Michigan Wolverines are one win away from a national title. On Saturday the Wolverines knocked off Loyola-Chicago 69-57, outscoring the Ramblers 47-28 in the second half.
Beilein, 65, was born and raised in Burt, NY, a small hamlet in Newfane. Beilein began his coaching career at Newfane High School, where he spent three years. He then took over the basketball program at Erie Community College. After a short stint with Nazareth College and nine years at Le Moyne, Beilein returned to Western New York, where he coached Canisius for five seasons. Beilein then spent time at both Richmond and West Virginia before accepting the Michigan job in 2007.
Michigan hasn't won a national title since 1989. This will be Beilein's second championship appearance with the Wolverines, falling to Louisville in 2012-2013. | 2019-04-26T07:52:50Z | https://www.wkbw.com/sports/burt-ny-native-john-beilein-and-michigan-heading-to-national-championship |
Emergencies are unavoidable. No matter how diligent your management team is, events may occur that are entirely out of your control. Natural disasters, maintenance issues, and even upset tenants can wreak havoc on your property. What you can control, however, is how you deal with these types of situations.
At RowCal, we know how critical it is that you maintain the ability to correct these situations. Before disaster strikes, you must proactively determine how to deal with it. Below are a few tips to help get you started.
A reserve study is a critical budget planning tool that allows you to identify the state of your reserve fund. By performing a reserve study, you can determine how you should allocate funds so that you may respond effectively to unexpected situations. Your property management company can assist you with this process and help you determine how to distribute funding appropriately.
To ensure you have adequate insurance coverage, you should always conduct an annual review of your policy. Be aware of your deductible and review which occurrences your policy covers. Many standard insurance policies do not cover losses resulting from floods, and may even exclude sewer backups or sump pump failures. If your policy does not pay for damages from such events, you will need to purchase additional coverage to avoid paying out of pocket.
In the event of an emergency, you need to know who you can trust to fix the issue. Whether it’s storm damage or major electrical outages, you will require general contracting services who will respond promptly. Your property management company should have a list of preferred vendors that they will contact in such situations. These companies are thoroughly vetted and have demonstrated professional, high-quality work. You should always know ahead of time who you will entrust with your repairs. Without a plan in place, you could fall victim to shoddy workmanship, or worse, an expensive scam artist.
You need an emergency preparedness plan, and RowCal is here to help you develop it. As an HOA management company, we specialize in financial administration, consulting services, and maintenance and project management. We are dedicated to improving your community’s experience by resolving issues promptly and efficiently with your financials in mind. To learn more about our property management services, contact us at 651-233-1307, or you can message us on our contact page. | 2019-04-19T16:37:36Z | https://www.rowcal.com/Who-We-Are/News/entryid/11/how-to-make-sure-you-are-prepared-for-emergencies |
Body shaming has been around for ages now; the only difference is that victims have been too embarrassed to talk about it. The issue of body shaming has recently has been brought to light and people have actually started to address it. Many articles have been published against body shaming, specifically fat shaming, and psychologists have claimed that body shaming can induce depression in people and can actually lead to weight gain. Experts also request fat shaming to be made illegal because it does not have any positive effects.
There are a number of ways in which people are body shamed, such being ridiculed about their weight, height, facial features, and the list goes on. The concept of body shaming started with people making videos and writing articles that targeted people that do not fit in with the “perfect body” conjured up by society and glorified by the media.
Celebrities have been targeted by fat shaming for a long time now. Magazines have almost always been flooded with reports of celebrities that have gained a pound or two, shaming them for not fitting the so-called perfect body mould anymore, even if the pounds were gained from something as natural as pregnancy.
People outside the celebrity sphere have also become victimised, body shaming has stepped out of being limited to celebrities only and almost everyone is now considered game for this hurl of abuse. And it’s not only the media that’s body shaming anymore. Not long ago, offensive cards were handed out to people perceived as fat by strangers in London, the cards suggested how the receivers needed to loose weight and not be a burden on the NHS. Police intervention was required to put an end to the abuse.
In 2014, the NHS started an experiment where random people were chosen and were sent motivational texts over a certain period of time to help them get in shape. It actually helped people lose weight and adapt healthy lifestyles. This helped because the step was taken on a more private and positive platform.
Dove started a perfect “real body” campaign, their advertisement showed women of all shapes and sizes and it encouraged women to be comfortable in their skin and embrace their bodies as what they are. Victoria’s Secret also joined in and created their own campaign to a positive body image. These campaigns have had a positive effect of moving half of the UK’s population moves onto healthier lifestyles while ensuring they are still comfortable with themselves.
So maybe it’s time to let the body shaming go in 2016 and to spread positivity instead, motivate each other to be the best versions of ourselves and to love our bodies. | 2019-04-24T05:50:56Z | http://tridentmedia.org/lets-stop-body-shaming/ |
Continuing on from our last post with a list of some blogs to inspire you, we have created another list of really great blogs and podcasts for you to read today.
This article looks at the benefits of remote, unmoderated user interviews, where participants complete pre-determined activities when and where they would like, with the researcher reviewing the recorded session later instead of communicating with the participant in real time.
Getting started in your creative career can be tough so Mitch Goldstein, a professor of design at Rochester Institute of Technology answers readers questions related to beginning a career.
Today’s chatbots guide users through simple flows and the user research in this article shows that they have a hard time whenever users deviate from those flows.
The companies with the best financial returns have a bold, design-centric vision that’s clearly embedded in the top teams. Cross-functional talent, analytical leadership, continuous iteration and user experience are included in the guidelines for how to run a company that reaps the benefits of good design.
The podcast explores the process and power of architecture and design and how great design can be all around us, have a huge impact on our lives, and yet it can be unnoticed and almost invisible, hence the name.

TEHRAN (FNA)- Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif underlined usefulness of the recent talks between Iranian officials and Omani King Sultan Qaboos, and said the Omani King may transfer Tehran’s views on different issues, specially the regional developments, to the US officials.
Zarif told the Iranian state-run TV on Tuesday night when the officials of the friendly states come to Tehran, they usually discuss some points which relate to the US. Zarif described these talks as friendly discussions over international issues, saying that this does not mean they are conveying a message from the US to Iran or vice-versa.
“The Omani King raised the views of the American side and other countries at the international level in his talks with the high-ranking Iranian officials and heard our views,” the Iranian foreign minister explained.
“And he may transfer these views (of ours) to the other sides in the talks he will have (with the Americans),” he added.
“This is the nature of bilateral and international relations,” Zarif stressed.
Meantime, he said that Iran and the US which have cut ties after the Islamic Revolution in Iran over three decades ago can transfer their messages officially through the Swiss embassy in Tehran which represents Washington’s interests in Iran.
Sultan Qaboos arrived in Tehran on Sunday for a three-day visit to meet with senior Iranian officials.
Sultan Qaboos, who was the first foreign leader visiting Iran since President Rouhani ascended to power, headed a high-ranking political and economic delegation during his three-day visit to Iran.
The Omani king left Tehran for Muscat on Tuesday. | 2019-04-21T12:35:00Z | https://theiranproject.com/blog/2013/08/28/fm-sultan-qaboos-may-inform-us-of-irans-views/ |
After trying to get a balance between textures and line work I feel this is working much better than the originals. I redid the line work and background. Harsher shadows and a little glow, more subtle color shifts hopefully looking a bit better. Speed is still a problem as a lot of layers and time spent trying to make this look quick and fluid. | 2019-04-19T03:21:37Z | http://johnjbleau.com/bleausketch/2016/12/9/a-second-try |
Our new Diedrich IR12 roaster is now fully setup in its new home. We have also finished work on our green bean store which holds all our green bean stock at a consistent temperature. Coupled with the same profiling software we use on the 1kg roaster at the shop which enables us to record every last tweak we do during the roast, this helps us guarantee consistency between roasts. The 20kg Classic Vittoria roaster in the front of the pic is a project for later in the year! | 2019-04-25T05:46:25Z | http://www.iow-espresso.co.uk/knowledgebase-item.aspx?id=21 |
In view of the great potential of this plant for cosmetics industry, we dedicated an intensive research program, funded within the EU project, to the detailed characterisation of saponins present in different parts of the plant. The paper describes the first study of seasonal variations of surface activity of soapwort , collected in 2016 from the wild state in Poland. The plants were dried under different conditions and separated into roots/rhizomes, stems, leaves and flowers/fruits. The respective extracts were tested for the ability to reduce surface tension (crucial for the cleansing properties) and to froth (crucial for foaming). In the course of the study we have observed that during the plant lifecycle the surface activity of extracts from individual organs varied significantly. Since soapwort is a perennial plant, the changes probably reflect the saponin content alterations related to their production and storage in the plant for the next season. | 2019-04-19T08:40:31Z | http://saponlabs.com/news/item/63-the-first-scientific-paper-of-saponlabs-is-published.html |
Cystinosis: lysosomal storage disorders of unknown molecular defect, characterized by widespread deposition of cystine crystals in reticuloendothelial cells.
Cystinosis: A metabolic disease characterized by the defective transport of CYSTINE across the lysosomal membrane due to mutation of a membrane protein cystinosin. This results in cystine accumulation and crystallization in the cells causing widespread tissue damage. In the KIDNEY, nephropathic cystinosis is a common cause of RENAL FANCONI SYNDROME.
Cystinosis is listed as a "rare disease" by the Office of Rare Diseases (ORD) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). This means that Cystinosis, or a subtype of Cystinosis, affects less than 200,000 people in the US population.
Ophanet, a consortium of European partners, currently defines a condition rare when if affects 1 person per 2,000. They list Cystinosis as a "rare disease".
Cystinosis (medical condition): See Cystinosis (disease information).
The following list attempts to classify Cystinosis into categories where each line is subset of the next. | 2019-04-19T17:15:57Z | https://www.rightdiagnosis.com/medical/cystinosis.htm |

I know I’ve been promising reports on the food in France, not to mention the healthy eating recipes but I’m zonked after a week of celebrating (?!?) turning 30, culminating in an until-all-hours party last night.
So instead, here are pix from the drool-inducing Cours Saleya market in Nice. This is how all markets should be – a riotously colourful offering of every type of fruit and veg you could imagine and more besides. I should really go to the trouble of writing about this but brain is porridge.
Planning holidays to the south of France at the moment and to get in the mood, I bought a headily ripe wedge of Brie de Meaux this morning. As a result, the car smells like an old man farted in it but it’s worth it. The Brie is at that stinky melting stage where you can just schmear it on crusty white bread and gorge.
I ate half of it. The other half is in the fridge. The husband will have my guts for garters when he comes home and catches the wanton stench of it (which will be at the end of our street, probably).
I had a quick look online for recipes involving brie but I’m not sure that anything beats the combo of brie and crusty French bread. Mind you, a turkey, brie and cranberry toasted sambo is pretty good too.
Incidentally, this site says Brie de Meaux goes perfectly with champagne, which would have made for a very decadent solo lunch had I known earlier.
Just finished reading an extraordinary essay by Rosecrans Baldwin, one of the founding editors of The Morning News. In it, he details a gluttonous, soused weekend in Paris, taking a few detours along the way to discuss cholesterol, bilingual children, conceptual art and the difference between a cocotte and culottes.
Good food writing should make the reader hungry and after savouring his article, I am ravenous and suddenly have a desperate need to go back to Paris, like I won’t be happy if I’m not on a plane there in the next 24 hours. | 2019-04-20T18:26:46Z | https://randomgrub.wordpress.com/category/french-food/ |

I’m a student teaching students.
It wasn’t until my final semester at college when I realized that what I really wanted to do was become an ESL teacher. My only experience with people who had taught English in other countries were college students who did it for a summer job or missionaries who were “pretending” to be English teachers.
But for me, I tell people the reason I teach is for the “lightbulb”. It’s that moment when you’re explaining a new idea or concept to someone and there’s that moment when you can literally see they’ve gotten it. Like a lightbulb has come on. And when knowledge impacts someone, it changes them.
In 2008 after graduating from Clearwater Christian College, I volunteered with S.O.S. Ministries to go to El Salvador and teach English in a small orphanage in Zacatecoluca for 3 months.
After that, I began volunteering for some youth ministries in the US as well as working at a local high school as a Doorways Mentor as well as being heavily involved in the school’s drama department.
In 2010 I went to Xining, China with ELIC as a ESL teacher to teach and train local teachers for a 3 month summer contract.
I taught over 1,500 hours of secondary school classroom experience teaching grammar and advanced conversational English.
I started and managed an after school drama club, journalism club, volunteer club and English club for secondary school students.
I organized and conducted over 300 hours of teacher training seminars focusing on methodology, classroom management and resources.
I conducted over 500 hours of private English tutoring for children to adults seeking educational and professional advancement.
Towards the end of my 1 year contract at the language center I was recruited by another department of EF operating in Shanghai: EF Academic Partnerships, which sends qualified, EF English teachers to teach at local, Chinese universities.
So, in the summer of 2015 I took the summer to get my CELTA certification through International House in Prague, Czech Republic and then returned to Shanghai to start teaching with EF AP.
I spent two years teaching at Shanghai University; teaching subjects such as Academic Writing, Public Speaking and Western Culture. It was a challenging 2 years and I learned a lot. In 2017, it was time to move on and start a new adventure.
After receiving a job offer at the American School of Wroclaw, my partner and I moved to Wrocław, Poland in the summer of 2017. At ASW I have been working as the Primary Department Coordinator as well as teaching English and Social Studies to 4th, 5th and 6th grade students. This has been a challenging year and a half as I have taken on more of an administrator role and less of a teaching role. It has been intense and difficult and I have learned a lot about myself and learned from many mistakes but this time here has been a gift. I am thankful for everything I have been able to achieve so far. | 2019-04-24T04:11:06Z | https://theforeignguy.com/my-career/ |
Last May the Huntsville Master Chorale premiered my choral piece, Having Told the Hive the News (or “the bee piece” as the singers affectionately called it). Here’s a recording from their concert under the direction of Patricia Ramirez-Hacker.
Here’s the score for Having Told the Hive the News. The piece will be premiered next week by the Huntsville Master Chorale directed by Patricia Ramirez-Hacker. I was invited to introduce the piece to the group in February and had such fun working with the singers. I can’t wait to hear how the work has developed.

Home / Blog / Bitqyck Review – Is This A Good Opportunity Or Big Scam?
Bitqyck Review – Is This A Good Opportunity Or Big Scam?
In the last few weeks, Bitqyck has been getting a lot of attention in the network marketing circles.
With all this hype, I am sure you have seen some of your friends trying to sell Bitqyck in your social media feeds.
The first thing you need to know is that I am NOT an affiliate or distributor for Bitqyck.
I wanted to gather all the information about Bitqyck in my Bitqyck Review in order for you to make a decision about joining Bitqyck.
Is Bitqyck legit or a scam?
Let me show you in my unbiased review of Bitqyck.
What The Heck Is Bitqyck?
In today’s latest review, we’re taking a look at an MLM opportunity by the name of Bitqyck. As the “Bit” part of the company’s name might suggest, Bitqyck is the latest company to take a stab at the MLM niche of cryptocurrency.
For those that haven’t been following the MLM landscape that closely over the past year or so, the field of cryptocurrency has gotten insanely popular over the past year or so as a new means of making money and offering a new business opportunity.
Looking at Bitqyck, we’ve got a company that’s based out of Texas in the United States and has a co-founder by the name of Sam Mendez.
Sam Mendez is a name that might be familiar to some of you, and that’s because Bitqyck isn’t the first time we’ve seen Mendez get involved with the world of MLM.
The first reported company that Sam Mendez was affiliated with was My Shopping Genie, with Mendez showing up once again as the co-founder for this company as well.
Unfortunately for Sam, My Shopping Genie wasn’t around for too long as it eventually collapsed after a period of six months or of being unable to pay its affiliates.
Following My Shopping Genie’s collapse in mid-2012, Mendez went on to launch 15 Winks in 2014 — a opportunity that offered a dating app after buying in to a subscription plan.
Calorchi succeeded 15 Winks in 2016 as an e-commerce platform with a cryptocurrency element, but current Alexa rankings for the Calorchi website indicate that the company shut down around the second half of that same year (2016).
What Are The Bitqyck Products?
In regards to the product line that Bitqyck has to offer, the company does’t have any true goods or services that are being sold to retail customers. Instead, Bitqyck sells nothing more than access to its affiliate membership program.
If and when someone decides that they’d like to become an affiliate for the company, they will be given the opportunity to invest real dollars into Bitqy. Bitqy is the in-house cryptocurrency that Bitqyck has created, and affiliates are also able to generate sales through an e-commerce platform.
I tried to look into said platform to see just what it has to offer, but there’s currently not a lot of detailed information about it not he Bitqyck website.
What About The Compensation Plan For Bitqyck?
Members of Bitqyck are able to earn money by recruiting other individuals to invest their own dollars into the Bitqy currency and by generating sales through the company’s e-commerce system.
When it comes to investing money into Bitqy, there are three main levels of investment that affiliates have access to. Bitqyck calls these “product options”, and the first one sees members investing $199 in order to get $200 worth of Bitqy coins.
The product option above this asks affiliates to invest $349 to receive $400 worth of Bitqy, and the last level requires an investment of $499 in order to get a whopping $600 worth of Bitqy.
Commissions that affiliates have access to are paid out in two main ways, and the first has to do with investing money into the Bitqy coins.
Whenever a personally recruited affiliate of yours invests their own money into the Bitqy coins, you’re able to earn a 10% commission based off of how much money they decided to invest.
In addition to this, you’ve also got access to a matching bonus of 10% for any affiliates that your downline is able to recruit and get to invest as well.
The second main commission that affiliates are able to earn come through the e-commerce platform.
These commissions are handled in a very unique manner, with a 25% commission being offered to an affiliate who introduces a customer to the platform that then decides to purchase product from it. A 25% commission is also paid out to the affiliate that was behind the recruitment of the referring affiliate in this situation, and that same 25% commission is even offered to the e-commerce merchant and the customer that’s buying from the platform.
What’s The Cost Of Joining Bitqyck?
If you’d like to join Bitqyck for whatever reason, the membership is free to start out with.
With this being said, you’ll need to either recruit someone who invests at least $199 or make the investment yourself if you’d like to be considered an official affiliate for the company.
So, Is There A Bitqyck Scam Going On?
Have you been hearing rumours that Bitqyck is a scam?
So – what is the truth? Is there really a Bitqyck scam going on?
If I am being perfectly honest, Bitqyck isn’t entirely a scam.
Finally, My Bitqyck Review And Conclusion!
From what I can tell, Bitqyck is simply a relaunch of what Mendez tried before with Calorchi.
Looking at the company and its e-commerce platform from the perspective of a retail customer, I don’t see anything at all that’s very compelling.
Customers don’t care about earning money, they want to save money. Furthermore, if a customer decides they want to buy something form the Bitqyck platform, they’ll need to invest money into Bitqy.
At the time of this writing, Bitqy is not tradable on the public market in any fashion. This likely isn’t ever going to change, and with Bitqy not being a public cryptocurrency, Mendez can pretty much set the value of it at whatever he would like.
The requirement of having to purchase Bitqy in order to buy items from the e-commerce platform will quickly turn off any real retail clients, leaving the only interested individuals being affiliates who are looking to make a quick buck.
Affiliates for Bitqyck will more than likely spend the majority of their time focused on investing in Bitqy and recruiting others to do the same, and just like similar opportunities that have come before Bitqyck, the whole operation will start to fall once this recruitment activity dies down.
I really hope you have gained value from my Bitqyck Review.
I wanted to make sure you had all the information you needed, because most other Bitqyck reviews are just trying to sell you something.
If you really do decide to join Bitqyck, I want you to succeed with your business. Learn how to market yourself properly! | 2019-04-26T02:26:16Z | https://www.seospark.co.uk/bitqyck-review-good-opportunity-or-big-scam/ |

A-day’s 25% lump sum rule could restrict payouts to holders of retirement annuity contracts – a type of individual pension plan that existed before 1987 when personal pension plans started to appear.
Chris Bellers, pensions technical manager at provider Friends Provident, said: "In some cases they could lose out. [Such contracts], also known as s.226 contracts, allow up to three times the initial annual annuity to be taken as tax-free cash."
Those wanting to maintain their entitlements and who are eligible for retirement could choose to retire before A-Day, but they may find that they have less cash left for an annuity.
The other factor that needs to be considered is retirement age. Under A-Day rules, pension scheme members will be allowed to take benefits from 50 years of age, but there is a strong disincentive for annuity contract holders.
Bellers explained: "Many s.226 contracts contain an annuity guarantee if benefits are taken at a selected retirement age which, before April 2006, cannot be lower than 60."
If the pension is taken early, scheme members may forfeit their guarantee and be exposed to prevailing annuity rates. | 2019-04-22T04:44:38Z | https://www.employeebenefits.co.uk/issues/october-2005/pensions-payment-restrictions/ |

Giving way to ambulance is very important as life will be on stake if nobody will give way to ambulance. There are some rules that are needed to be followed in order to give way.
First of all and most importantly do not panic. You should stay calm and check where the ambulance is coming from. Then give way by merging left if it is safe to do so. If you cannot move left safely you should slow down and let the ambulance overtake you. Never speed up or try to outrun the vehicle as this is dangerous. And you cannot break the law to give way to an ambulance.
It is an offence not to give way to an ambulance. The penalty is a fine and loss of demerit points. Here is an example of a motorist who did not give way to an ambulance while all the other cars moved to the left. The ambulance was supporting a little girl who had split her head open, but just because of one car nothing could be done. Reporters have interviewed the driver. He said that if they had reached the hospital in time, she could have been saved. Not everything was lost and the bleeding could be contained. But just because of one car a little girl lost her life.
With the increasing traffic on the roads, ambulances have a tough task in taking the patients to hospitals on time. A recent survey conducted revealed that nearly 18,000 patients who are transported in ambulances every year could be saved form medical complication if the vehicles could reach the hospitals faster.
More and more motorists in the busy streets of subcontinent and other major cities are refusing to yield to ambulances and firetrucks. This assessment is based on first-hand experience of volunteers along with a sharp rise in complaints from paramedics and firefighters.
Instead of clearing and pulling to the side of the road when an ambulance approaches, many motorists are racing ahead of it or following closely behind them to pass more quickly through traffic.
Even worse, some motorists simply ignore the sirens altogether, or leave their cars parked on narrow streets, creating a tight squeeze for large fire trucks and ambulance.
Nearly half of the emergency vehicles that hospitals receives each year are classified as high priority calls in which a person is suffering from chest pains, breathing disorders, heart attacks, trauma or some other serious condition. However unyielding motorists delay their arrival by precious minutes that often mean the difference between life, death or severe brain damage.
The bottom line is that people who don’t stop for ambulances increase the chance that someone who is critical will die because ambulance can’t reach them or get them to a hospital fast enough.
In conclusion, I would like to say that education about ambulance importance should be given by the use of pint media, electronic media, workshops, exhibitions and road shows. Last but not least separate road should be made just for ambulances.

This is my favorite meal of the day, specially when my little one is asleep. Who am I kidding, she wakes up before anyone in the neighborhood and I have yet to experience the feeling of having breakfast in peace.
However my two year daughter’s pickiness as well as my husband’s dietary restrictions (placed by me) has given birth to the extremely creative child in me. So here is what I serve for breakfast and yes my toddler has approved it which makes this list so special and close to my heart.
These are extremely easy to make. The best part is you can twist and turn this recipe as much as you want. You can make it from scratch or use leftovers. You can freeze them or eat them all. Even writing about these makes me want to go and grab one from the freezer. Just reheat them for 30 seconds or more and you on-the-go breakfast is ready.
Wow! who would have thought almond flour pancakes would taste so heavenly. These are full of protein and can be eaten with Walden farms zero calorie syrup. You can add a bit of the sweetener or these Lily’s dark chocolate chips for some variation.
For this simply make an omelette with cheese and sausages and add your favorite keto friendly vegetables. I love to add Serrano pepper for a nice hot flavor. If you do not have sausages, any kind of leftover meat would do.
These look beautiful on the plate. Fry two eggs, sunny side up, add a sliced avocado and two sausages for some more protein.
We love to play with the fluffy cloud bread. Eat it with butter or make grilled cheese sandwiches with it.
Boil two eggs mix them with half cup of mayo and some shredded chicken. Season with your favorite spices and add cabbage if you want. Your perfect egg salad is ready! Wrap it in lettuce or eat as is.

Severe bumps to the head can happen during sports practice, kids’ play dates and even household accidents. Knowing when to seek care for head injuries can mean the difference between a full recovery and a lifelong disability or death.
Dr. Paul Vespa, director of UCLA Health’s neurocritical care program, offers six tips to ensure the best care if you or a family member suffers what’s called a traumatic brain injury, or TBI.
Know the warning signs. Symptoms such as headache, nausea, dizziness or a lapse in consciousness may indicate bleeding in the brain that can turn deadly quickly. Consider these red flags to get the injured person to the hospital immediately.
Timing counts. Swift surgery or other medical intervention can prevent death and permanent brain damage from a TBI.
Choose the right hospital. Not every medical center offers the trained specialists and advanced equipment required to treat TBIs effectively. Make sure your loved one is treated at a hospital with a neuro-intensive care unit on site.
Insist on a specialist. Demand that your loved one be evaluated and treated by a physician who has undergone extra training to specialize in brain trauma. This is not the time for a general neurologist.
Understand the rules. Ask whether the medical team follows the American Academy of Neurology guidelines for treating concussion and TBI. These guidelines improve patient outcomes and increase the likelihood of a successful recovery.
Don’t forget rehabilitation. Patients recovering from a TBI often need physical therapy and cognitive rehab to relearn how to swallow, speak, walk, dress themselves and process information. Concussion patients also require careful monitoring and specialized treatment to enable the brain to heal and fully recover. | 2019-04-23T10:10:02Z | http://neurosurgery.ucla.edu/suspect-a-brain-injury |

Two Democratic state representatives from South Florida said Thursday that they've gathered with 33 colleagues to file paperwork with the Secretary of State to poll lawmakers for their support for a special session.
At the end of session, superintendents and the statewide teachers' union called for the Legislature to redo their education funding in the budget they were about to pass. When a special session seemed imminent on gambling issues, again, they made the same call, without success.
Now, Democrats have organized a last-ditch effort to use an obscure state law to poll lawmakers on their willingness to come back for a special session to address education funding.
State Reps. Shevrin Jones of West Park and Nicholas Duran of Miami said Thursday that they and 33 others have filed petitions with the Florida Secretary of State for the poll. This method of calling a special session circumvents the Republican Legislative leadership, who typically are the ones who must call any special sessions and declare its purpose.
Both Jones and Duran hail from the two counties, Broward and Miami-Dade, hit hardest by a change in the way the state calculates school funding this year, designed to direct more dollars to smaller districts. They, like the rest of the House members who aren't termed out, are up for re-election.
"In the aftermath of Parkland and the waning days of session, the Legislature took action for the safety of our schools," Duran said. "In our rush to do something we didn't account for the conesequences of that bill 7026 and now the school districts are facing those consequences."
Since the passage of this year's budget as well as SB 7026, the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Act, school districts have been scrambling to comply with the new safety requirements as well as their normal operations. Several are considering raising local property taxes.
Democrats tried the same tactic after the Pulse shooting in the summer of 2016, in an effort to force a special session vote on guns. They failed to garner enough support to call the session.
This year's final vote on the budget was taken on March 11, the Sunday after the legislative session was supposed to end but it went into overtime after the Feb. 14 Parkland shooting changed the entire direction of the session and caused lawmakers to reconcile with issues like school safety and gun rights not previously taking center stage.
Jones was not present for the vote on the budget. He said it was because after the Legislature's official end date he needed to go back to his full-time job as the executive director of the Florida Reading Corps, a branch of AmeriCorps. Duran voted yes, along with many other Democrats who argued against the budget but who ultimately voted for it.
"When our members were presented with the budget, they were presented with something they did not like," Jones said. "But (some are) going to vote for it because there are some good things in there."
Despite the fact that Republicans have said repeatedly that they are proud of the investment they made this year in education, Jones said this poll at the very least will require every lawmaker to go on the record in an election year with their position on the current school funding levels.
It's unlikely the Democrats will succeed, but now that the Secretary of State has received Jones and Duran's petition, that office will send out the poll today. Lawmakers will have until noon on May 24 to respond, according to Sarah Revell from the Secretary of State's office. | 2019-04-25T18:48:01Z | http://www.tampabay.com/florida-politics/buzz/2018/05/17/florida-dems-use-obscure-law-in-last-ditch-effort-to-call-legislature-back-for-more-school-funding/ |
Sandy Smith woke up to the annoying and familiar sound of the alarm clock. It was another day and the beginning of another hectic week. She rolled from her stomach onto her back and unburied herself from beneath the old, down-filled, pillows. Sandy reached over and pressed the snooze button in an attempt to steal five more minutes of peace. As Sandy stretched, she felt the pain, a stiff ache that had unfortunately loomed over her body every morning for quite some time.
Once out of bed, Sandy leaned over and tried to concentrate on making the perfect hospital corners. She slightly lifted the large, squishy mattress, and tucked the corners just right, trying to ignore her stiff muscles and joints. She shuffled into the bathroom and brought her toothbrush to her mouth. Hunched over the sink, trying to avoid the tired reflection staring back at her, Sandy brushed her teeth. Her motions were slow this morning, and she had no time to concern herself with a little pain.
"Here they come," Sandy thought to herself as she heard the pitter-patter of four little feet running down the hallway. The kids were awake, eager to begin the day. Sandy threw on a skirt and sweater, pulling her brown high heels out from the back of the closet.
"Ow," Sandy exclaimed. The pain in her back sent a sharp signal to her brain that the day was not going to run smoothly. She clomped down the hall to retrieve the hairbrush stuck in her daughter's long hair, and her feet found Barbie. Her heels had little traction and she grabbed the banister for support.
Realizing she was late, Sandy bent over to scoop up her 2-year-old. Her back seemed to yell at her, and she suddenly realized her toddler was becoming heavier every day.
After cereal and burnt toast, Sandy marched her girls to the bus stop and waved good-bye as she turned toward her car, angry with herself for sleeping those five extra minutes. She would have to face Monday morning gridlock and suddenly felt the beginning of a headache that would stay with her all day.
"I love Mondays," Sandy said to herself as she sat in traffic. She reached for her cell phone, cradling it between her neck and head. Her conference call would need to be conducted in the car, and her headache only worsened.
Thirty minutes later, Sandy pulled into her parking place. She sprang from her car, heaved her over-stuffed leather bag over her shoulder, and scurried through the office doors.
Sandy's Monday morning was filled with telephone calls and last minute deadlines. She tried to type and talk at the same time, constantly crossing and re-crossing the left leg over the right. She began breathing erratically when she realized her deadline would not be met. The lunch hour was approaching, and it suddenly occurred to Sandy that she had not taken a break all morning. Her computer screen appeared blurry and her wrists were stiff.
The remainder of Sandy's day was much of the same, and she could not wait to take off her shoes. After skipping lunch and sitting through meetings, Sandy drug herself to her car, threw her bag in the back seat and started the stressful trek home. That night, after the kids devoured dinner, Sandy longed for a long hot shower. The girls were in the bathtub, and she winced as she reached over to carefully lift her toddler onto the floor. By this time, her neck and joints screamed in pain and Sandy wanted nothing more than to climb into bed.
It was eleven at night and Sandy was finally lying down. Her bed and pillows did not seem comfortable, and she felt for only an instant that her neck needed a little more support. She drifted off to sleep out of sheer exhaustion.
Does Sandy remind you of anyone? The more stressful our lives become, the less we focus on the "moment." When we aren't conscious of how we sleep, breathe, stand, lift, bend or sit, our bodies can take a beating that results in lingering pain. We often avoid the early signs of discomfort we feel in our back, shoulders or neck until we are unable to ignore the pain. By reading the tips below, you can learn to make even the busiest days pain free.
When you wake in the morning, start the day with a couple of stretches. Stand up and stretch your arms above your head. Do the "hug your best friend." Wrap your arms around your body, and turn as far as you can to the left, then to the right.
When performing everyday routines such as brushing your teeth, remember your posture. Do not hunch over the sink; stand up straight.
Don't bend from the waist when you lift a child. Squat with your back straight. Keep the child close to you and use your arms and legs to lift.
Hold the telephone with your hand or use the speakerphone. Cradling the phone between your head and shoulder can lock up the spinal joints in the neck and upper back, eventually causing pain.
While in the office, make sure your chair fits correctly. There should be two inches between the front edge of your seat and the back of your knees. The chair should tilt back so you are able to rest while reading from a computer screen.
Many people suffer from tension headaches. Adequate lighting and document holders by your computer can help reduce the risk of a headache. Materials placed on a desk cause you to constantly raise and lower your neck while you're typing at your keyboard.
Do not wear high heels. The weight of the foot is not evenly distributed, which not only causes sore feet, but also added spinal stress.
Do not carry a heavy bag with its strap over your shoulder, unless you place the strap over your head on the side opposite the bag. Wearing a shoulder strap over one shoulder unevenly places the weight of the bag on one side of the body, potentially causing shoulder and back pain. Or better yet, carry a bag with a handle rather than a strap.
Do not consistently cross the same knee over the other. This habit can eventually cause misalignment of the spine.
Even if you remain sitting for the majority of your workday, you deserve a break. Get up from your desk and move around, stretching arms and legs as much as possible to avoid postural and spinal stress. Try to practice deep and even breathing to keep yourself calm and keep adequate oxygen flowing through your system.
Bath time can be fun for the kids but stressful on any parent. Make certain to bend from the waist and not the back when bathing your children. Use your legs when you lift your child.
It is important to get a good night's rest. Choose a comfortable mattress and pillow that adequately support the weight of your head and body. | 2019-04-19T14:29:18Z | https://www.southmainchiro.com/articles/general/418246-a-day-in-the-life-of-a-working-mom |
