A tribunal’s decision to reject the appeal of a diplomat over the support she needed to do her job in a new foreign posting undermines the career prospects of other high-flying disabled people say campaigners.
Jane Cordell, who is profoundly Deaf, lost her employment appeal tribunal in a disability discrimination case against the Foreign Office over the cost of providing her with lip-speakers.
Cordell had been offered the job of deputy ambassador to Kazakhstan and Kyrgystan, but the offer was withdrawn because the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) said the cost of providing lip-speakers would be too high.
She had estimated the cost to be less than £200,000 a year, while the FCO’s estimate was more than £300,000 a year.
Liz Sayce, chief executive of RADAR, said she was “deeply disappointed” that a “talented disabled woman” had been prevented from pursuing her chosen career.
She said: “We understand that costs are one consideration, but so are the benefits that talented disabled people bring to senior roles, bringing resilience, empathy and problem-solving, acting as role models for others and – in this case – representing their country.”
She said there were “very few” disabled people who needed expensive adjustments to work, with most costing nothing or “a few hundred pounds”, while “funding the occasional situation where someone has greater needs is a good investment”.
Sayce added: “This judgement sets the clock back and seems to fly in the face of the government’s commitment to improving disabled people’s career opportunities.”
Mike Smith, a commissioner at the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) and chair of its disability committee, said the EHRC had supported Cordell’s case “because we know how important it is that reasonable adjustments are provided to allow disabled people to participate fully in the workforce and realise their potential”.
He added: “I am concerned that the outcome of this appeal sends the message that disabled people should not expect to get to the top of their profession, if they have significant support needs.”
Cordell had been praised by the FCO for her performance in her previous posting in Poland – and received awards from the Polish authorities for her disability rights work – for which the government provided lip-speakers at an annual cost of about £146,000.
But a new FCO reasonable adjustments policy was introduced after she started working in Poland.
An FCO spokesman said: “FCO welcomes the outcome of this case but we regret that it came to legal action.
“The FCO is fully committed to equality of opportunity and to making reasonable adjustments to allow disabled staff to enjoy the fullest possible FCO career.
“In this case, we do not believe the adjustments that would have been required – costing in excess of £0.5million over two years – would by any measure be considered reasonable.”

A 31-year-old man could face up to five years in prison after allegedly pointing a laser at a Michigan State Police helicopter.
The incident reportedly occurred in Flint, in the US State of Michigan on 17th March.
The Trooper 3 helicopter was flying over the city when the laser was aimed at the aircraft, prompting the crew to trace the source to a residence on Nelson Street.
Ground troopers responded and arrested the suspect on a felony charge of pointing a laser at an aircraft.
The man’s identity has not been released as he awaits arraignment.
This incident follows a similar case in Flint last summer, when a 59-year-old man was arrested for directing lasers at the same helicopter.
Michigan State Police emphasise that aiming lasers at aircraft is dangerous, as it can temporarily blind the flight crew and potentially cause a crash.

When a pipe is placed in an excavated trench to move water away, it is known as pipe culvert. It is the most commonly used drainage feature. Economy and ease of installation have made this type of culvert very popular. Pipe culverts are found in different shapes such as circular, elliptical, pipe arch etc. Generally, the shape depends on site conditions and constraints.
Uses of Pipe Culverts
- In lowland paths construction.
- In upland paths where suitable stones are not available to build cross drains or stone culvert.
Advantages of Pipe Culvert
The main advantages of pipe culverts are:
- Any desired strength is achievable by proper mix design, thickness, and reinforcement.
- Easy to Install.
- Pipe culvert can withhold high tensile stresses and compressive stresses.
- As pipe culverts don’t create barriers in the path, they provide a continuous surface over the pipe.
Disadvantages of Pipe Culvert
- Crown corrosion. When the crown is corroded because of bacteria ‘s organic attack and release of harmful gas, it is known as crown corrosion.

Questions related to Physical Examination
Chen Huabin is the deputy chief physician of Taizhou Hospital. He graduated from Zhejiang Medical University, Hangzhou Branch (now Hangzhou Normal University Clinical School) in 1991. He was named the deputy chief physician in December 2006. He has many years of clinical experience in orthopedics, brain surgery, and emergency trauma surgery. He is now the chief surgical examiner of the Hospital Health Management Center.
I met him during a physical examination 3 years ago. At that time, he was a surgical medical examiner and a human skeleton model was placed on the table. When he checked my spine, he said something to the effect that an important reason for the common occurrence of spondylosis in Chinese people is the bad habits and wrong postures in life and work. People of our age who are frequently sitting mainly have some problems with the lumbar spine, but the old farmers who work hard in the countryside rarely have this problem.
A 27-year-old woman presents to her primary care provider for a routine physical examination. She denies any heart disease and has never had any cardiac symptoms. However, on physical examination, the clinician detects an irregular heart rhythm, and a 12-lead ECG is obtained.
What does her ECG reveal?
3-Normal sinus rhythm with premature ventricular complexes.
4-Normal sinus rhythm with aberrantly conducted premature atrial complexes (PACs).
5-Normal sinus rhythm with PACs and Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW).
I collected data for independent different physical examination skills (Blood pressure measurement, Auscultation of heart sounds , Auscultation of lung sounds, heart rhythm assessment, and palpation of arterial pules).
the data collected to see how relevant was the simulation experience with mannequins for those physical examinations.

Every granddad has one, though some are cleaner than others... That`s right, it`s an armchair! The first thing to remember is that Granddad is from a different time, one when people didn`t just go throwing away perfectly good furniture because it didn`t fit in with the rest of the decor.
In today`s interior design, there is a strong trend that the traditional three-piece sofa suite becomes less popular. Homeowners prefer a much more flexible seating options. The sofa and armchair don`t have to be the same style or covered with same material. A well-chosen armchair can be terrific for a living room seating marvel and is ready to help your decor leap into style!
Choosing the right type of seating is important for maintaining good health and increasing your work pace; comfortability should be the biggest concern here. The most popular and ergonomic office seating has to be the swivel armchair.
There doesn`t seem a lot you can say about armchairs, they are comfortable, necessary pieces of furniture that we have in our homes. However, the perfect armchair is all of the above and more.
Feature armchairs are diverse in their style and application, providing a room with more than just additional seating. From the bedroom to the living area, armchairs can fill a cosy reading nook, accentuate an existing seating area or create a whole new space that facilitates relaxation and conversation in comfort.
For centuries the armchair represented status in society and now is commonly seen, accompanied by an ottoman, in living rooms around the world. Individuals of great power and authority sat in these chairs giving them complete control over their people.
Thanks to new developments in mobility equipment, people suffering from back pain can now purchase a number of products that can assist and support them. Read more about how you may benefit from using an electric lift and recline armchair if you suffer from serious back pain.
Are the armchair analysts in our midst actually creators themselves? Maybe so...but it`s hard to believe when they persistently insist they `know` the innermost meanings, leanings, intent...even sexuality of the authors they dissect. Mine may well be a `voice in the wilderness` protesting this practice, but I choose to believe I speak for many creators (both illustrious...and not) who have preceded my humble efforts. Maybe the armchair analysts would do well to review the Golden Rule...there`s a lesson in that one for all of us...if we choose to learn.

A reputable watch created initially for British paratroopers in the 1940s. The original piece was marked with the initials COSD and intended for the sole use of the Combined Operations Command created by the British War Office during the Second World War. The watch is housed in a 40mm steel case, with automatic mechanical Longines caliber L619.2 inside, and offered in choice of black or white dial. Maintaining its military look, it is fitted on a green NATO strap, though a black leather strap is also an option. The NATO strap and the distinctive broad arrow on the dial, used at the time for all military equipment, bestow its particular style to this model.

I took for this sound 4 different machine sounds: a wood milling machine, a heavy bulldozer sound, a drilling machine and some heavy beating sounds with a hammer. I convoluted the four sounds to create one single drone of over one minute long. I placed this sound within Kontakt 4 and used the time machine 2 mode to pitch the sound and there you have the Industrial drone layer sound. A mellow drone like soundscape... suitable as background noise. Created within Cubase 5.

THE showpiece transport plan the Rees Government will take to the next election will recycle several previously announced projects, the Minister for Transport has revealed.
In the Government's submission to a Herald-backed public inquiry into Sydney transport, David Campbell said the 2031 blueprint ''will shape the way we travel now and in the future''.
The two-page submission to the inquiry, chaired by the former Olympics transport chief, Ron Christie, said: ''The blueprint is expected to be completed by the end of the year, with the assistance of a reference panel of transport experts.
''The blueprint will incorporate current projects, such as the delivery of the south-west rail link, the Sydney Metro, 7000 additional commuter car spaces, 450 new buses, 626 Waratah train carriages, and will aim to build on current performance such as CityRail's on-time running of 95.4 per cent against a benchmark of 92 per cent.''
Mr Campbell said that by 2013, the Government would have invested $183 billion in infrastructure since its election in 1995.
''At a glance, we've built five major motorways, completed three railway lines, delivered more than 270 train carriages and built the north-west and south-west T-ways,'' he wrote. ''The Premier has made it clear that more will be done to ensure NSW and Sydney has a transport system that is of a world standard.''
In its submission, the NSW Opposition said poor planning over the past decade had meant NSW was unable to increase public transport use. ''To meet the growing needs of the community, we need a long-term integrated plan to ensure capacity is built into the public transport network,'' wrote the Opposition transport spokeswoman, Gladys Berejiklian.
She pointed out that while the Government had claimed an extra 100 rail services a day had been introduced with the new CityRail timetable, the improvement did not make up for the 416 services a day that were slashed during the last timetable review in 2005.
''Even if we accept the Government's word on the additional services, we are still more than 300 daily services short of where we were four years ago.''
Ms Berejiklian said a Coalition government would ensure that new roads were built simultaneously with new public transport, as part of a plan to merge the transport and road agencies.
All new hospitals, schools and employment hubs would need links to public transport to avoid the problems of north-west and south-west Sydney, where business parks were almost completely dependent on cars.
The Opposition submission also urges the creation of ''multi-purpose transport hubs'' in key locations around Sydney suburbs, incorporating commuter parking and bicycle storage, and small shops such as cafes and newsagents over train, bus and ferry interchanges.

TrendCatch Trading Philosophy
The TrendCatch trading method for Day Trading or Trend Trading is developed especially for the semiprofessional trader. TrendCatch computes a confirmed entry signal, using our proprietary algorithms - and then based upon Markets behavior eventually issue a Vocal and sound voice warning. The alert is also issued if/when the Trend becomes unstable, which is not the same as a change of the Trend.
The fundamental rule for Day Trading or Trend Trading is to take profit if possible while the Trend is Stable; it’s up to the trader to decide an exit strategy as the program is not an automated system giving you both an entry and an exit point during the same position. That is simply not possible to calculate in advance unless you are in possession of the magic crystal ball.
The Trend has to be constantly monitored and computed in real time while the market prices fluctuate. To help the trader keeping track of when the trend eventually change the trader use info from the Graphical Window with the support/resistance lines and the audio called Alerts.
We have - based upon our proprietary algorithms - developed a unique Trading Model which is based upon three different strategies.
A very experienced trader will be able to mix or combine the different trading strategies. It is not advisable to try that unless the Trader has used TrendCatch for some time.
Strength of the Algorithms
Our Programs strength is in the ability to most of the time correctly compute the signals and inform investors when the market trend changes, based on overall and specific market behavior.
However, it does not predict the market's behavior. The Program tells investors that when "x" happens, then they need to take action.
If investors follow the Trend Trading Change Information given, they will be following the correct market trend almost all of the time.
The Trend in combination with the current price pattern is used to constantly predict changes to the trend. This generates Buy, Sell and eventual a new Trend Trading signal that are reported by the program.
Only ticks important for the programs algorithm to compute the Trend Changes are shown.
The program only uses a tick if/when it is a part of a price / trading pattern recognized by the program to be important. That is why there can be anything from several ticks in a minute to sometimes no ticks at all during a minute.
All Graphs shows the prices and time where TrendCatch SPpro or TrendProphecy FX has been Long or Short (Blue/Red) during the day and the week.
The trader must wait until the program has confirmed the trading signal and not attempt to react only on the price development in the market before the Trend Change has been confirmed.

Are sharks the most dangerous internet hackers because they can disrupt a large region’s internet coverage with just one bite?
By: Ringo Bones
Excuse the pun, but there has been recent undeniable proof that sharks can be more dangerous than the internet's most notorious black hat hackers. Forget the Mainland Chinese Unit 61398’s most coordinated DDOS attacks between 1999 and 2006, 13 incidences of broken underwater internet cables of previously unknown causes have been attributed to shark attacks after shark bite damage contained fragments of shark tooth – physical proof of a confirmed shark attack. The most recent one shut down Vietnam’s internet back in 2014.
Underwater cables are rather old tech that dates back to Victorian era telegraphy, and yet they provide a more reliable and cost-effective internet connectivity between continents and nation-states in comparison to the latest high-bandwidth digital communications satellites. Underwater telecommunication cables are often attack by sharks because their Ampullae of Lorenzini cause them to be attracted to the rather strong electromagnetic fields emitted by the high-current direct-current power supply of underwater cables.
At present, 75-million internet servers worldwide are connected via submarine telecommunications cables where 500,000 miles of underwater cables connect various landing stations that make everyone on the planet more or less connected. 41 cable repair ships currently service those underwater cables that carry our internet signals. In case of a shark attack incident, underwater cable repair currently costs about 10,000 US dollars a day.
But as the underwater cable reaches land and go subsurface, humans scavenging for scrap metal are as dangerous as sharks when it comes to disrupting the internet service. In 2011, a 75-year-old Georgian woman looking for scrap metal to sell in order to augment her meager government pension accidentally cut an underground telecommunications cable with her digging shovel, shutting down the internet services of Georgia and Armenia for 5-hours.


The M16 is a common assault rifle available to all players. The M16 has mediocore recoil and a low fire rate. It deals 23 damage on a body shot and 62 damage on a head shot. The M16 can fire 20 bullets before it needs to reload and can hold 60 more bullets in the form of 3 more magazines.
The Mac10 is a sub machine gun that is available to all players. The Mac10 deals 12 damage per shot. If you land headshot, you can kill them in 4 rapid shots, doing 32 damage each. The MAC10 can fire 30 bullets before it has to reload and can hold 60 more bullets in the form of 2 magazines. The Mac10 is not good for long range due to the larger cone and the recoil. It also has a headshot damage reduction depending on the range so you cannot get lucky potshots at longer ranges. The Mac-10 uses the SMG ammunition.
The Shotgun is a close range weapon available to all users. The shotgun can kill instantly if shot at the head at close range and brings the opponent to near death if shot in the chest. The shotgun makes a noticeably loud noise when fired. The shotgun can fire 8 shots before it has to reload and can hold 24 bullets at maximum. The shotgun reloads one bullet at a time instead of using magazines. Definitely not good for long range. The shotgun has headshot multiplier damage falloff, a shotgun headshot can do 3.1 times damage per pellet (34.1) at its closest range (140 units) to 1 times damage at its max distance.
This gun is more commonly known as Sniper Rifle or Scout and is known for its long range and instant kills.This gun has the lowest fire rate of all guns. It holds 10 shots in one magazine, and can kill a player in 1 headshot (200 damage) and 2 torso shots (50 damage) or four limb shots (27 damage). If your Karma is low, it may take 3 body shots to kill a player because each one deals 50 damage on default. This is also dependent on if your target is wearing body armor which provides 30% damage reduction, bringing the bodyshot damage down to 35. This gun can be used similarly like a Deagle because it does not have an accuracy penalty up close making one-shot kills on head shots from close ranges often. It is not recommended to fight close range with a rifle unless you are going for an instant kill.
The H.U.G.E is a weapon available to all players in TTT. The H.U.G.E is arguably the worst gun in the game. It is a machine gun but it has a high amount of recoil. H.U.G.E. Is uncommonly used since it is impractical in most situations. The H.U.G.E. is not good for fast kills, as the recoil, low damage, and high rate of fire will make it hard for you to land all your shots and gives your target time to call you out, retaliate, or escape. The H.U.G.E cannot reload as it does not take any type of ammo available in the game so when you run out of ammo you need to find another H.U.G.E or get a new gun. The H.U.G.E can hold 150 bullets in total and deals 7 damage per torso shot, however due to the inaccuracy, most shots will hit a different body part, causing the damage to vary.
The Pistol/Five Seven is a decent weapon that does not specialize in a particular category and gets the job done. It deals 25 Damage on a bodyshot and can also kill a player in 2-3 headshots, depending on your Karma and whether they are wearing body armour.
The Glock has a fast fire rate, 20 rounds in each magazine and can kill a player with 5 head shots and 9 torso shots. Most of the time, it is used as a backup weapon and/or finisher. However, it chews through ammo very quickly.
The Deagle, also known as the Desert Eagle is weapon available to all players. It goes in the secondary weapon slot. The Deagle is the only secondary weapon that instantly kills if you manage to land a headshot. The Deagle is commonly used by traitors to insta-kill others before they have a chance to shoot back. The Deagle deals 37 on a chest shot, making it also a good finisher weapon. It is also accurate at long range, but difficult to master. The Deagle can fire 8 bullets before it needs to reload. It can hold 36 bullets in the reserve. The Deagle is similar to the shotgun, as it kills instantly with a head shot and is an effective close range weapon, when the user has enough practice in getting headshots constantly.

- Updated: August 1, 2018
J.R. Smith is known for being a character both on the court and off of it. Most recently, it seems like his antics have gotten him into a bit of trouble after it was reported that the Cleveland Cavaliers guard is under NYPD investigation.
According to TMZ, the NYPD is investigating Smith for allegedly stealing a cell phone from a fan and throwing it into a construction site:
“Law enforcement sources tell us … they got a call around 2:30 AM on Sunday morning from a guy who says he tried to take a picture with the Cleveland Cavs star outside of The Park, a hotspot in Chelsea.
“Smith allegedly turned the fan down — telling him no photos — but he snapped one anyway … and Smith snapped too.
“We’re told … Smith allegedly approached the fan and snatched the phone out of his hand and then launched it into a nearby construction zone. The fan claims his $800 phone was damaged and he has filed a report with police.
“Smith has not been charged with a crime — but we’re told cops would like to speak with him asap.”
It’s hard not to smile when imagining the interaction. Smith was certainly just trying to enjoy a night out on the town when a fan got too up close and personal.
Hopefully this matter comes to a conclusion soon. It would be a shame if Smith wasn’t able to enjoy his offseason to the fullest extent before getting back into the gym for the 2018-19 season.

"Such an easy side dish; and, no pots or pans. A simple foil pouch packed with potatoes, vegetables and cheese. And, you can add your favorites; but, I like to stick with onions, garlic, peppers, celery, and cheese - mushrooms at times. Simply add a little non stick spray to the foil, a little butter/oil on top; and wrap. I like this on the grill; but, in the oven works just as well. This is a perfect side dish that goes with just about anything. This recipe is for 2 foil pouches; 1 per person. You can easily just double the ingredients; but, I still prefer to make the individual pouches."

Potatoes ... You can use red skin or yukon gold potatoes - and, peeled or not. I like skins on. Add the potatoes to the center of a large sheet of foil, sprayed with a non-stick spray to prevent sticking. You can also use a bit of olive oil too, if you don't have a non stick spray.
Vegetables ... For the peppers, I usually use a mix of bell peppers; and, often a jalapeno mixed in. Seeds and ribs removed, so there isn't too much heat. You can really use any mix you like - especially what is in season.
Top the potatoes with the peppers, onions, garlic, celery; and, optional mushrooms. Season with salt, pepper, a drizzle of olive oil, butter; and, toss to combine. Then, top with the cheese.
Grill or Bake ... Wrap up the foil package like a present - both sidews; then, the sides. You need to make sure that the package is tightly wrapped up; as, the package will be flipped on the grill.
I really prefer to grill; but, these can also be done in a 400 degree oven or medium high to high heat on the grill. About 20-25 minutes either way. Turn over after 10 minutes; and cook 5 minutes - then, flip back over to finish cooking. During cooking, use your tongs to grab one end of the foil pouch, and shake them right on the grates. This mixes up the vegetables to distribute them evenly as they cook.
Serve and ENJOY! ... After 20 minutes, I suggest you check them. You want them, lightly golden brown; tender; and cheese melted. These go with just about any dish. You can make larger packets; but, I find they take longer to cook; and, often there are too many vegetables for them to cook evenly. I prefer to do the individual pouches.

Mount Carmel from Columbus, Ohio is a blues rock trio with sounds from the 70’s but with a fresh current taste and original hooks. It must be their respectful love for the music of that era that influenced them to remake and refine sounds from decades ago into something I can certainly relate to. Their music reminds me of great musical times in my life and at the same time has their own modern style with a “Get Pure” solid rock influence.
In 2010 they released their first self titled album “Mount Carmel” and in 2012 “Real Women”. In 2014, they released their third album “Get Pure”.
Tell me about your music….
We try to play rock and roll music and not to over-think it.
What brought the band together?
Originally it was two brothers and a dude just playing the music they needed to play. Now it’s one brother and two dudes.
Who writes the songs?
Mostly Matt comes up with the ideas and everything gets fine-tuned from there.
Who were your biggest influences?
Zeppelin, Cream, George Michael, Peter Green.
When did you start performing?
What CD’s do you have out and where can they be purchased?
The first one is self titled, Mount Carmel. Second one is Real Women”. They’re around on iTunes and maybe other corners of the internet. The most recent record on Alive Naturalsound Records is “Get Pure”. You can buy it on iTunes, Amazon, Google music (if that is a thing) and all sorts of little record shops.
Any new projects in the works?
We are working on a new record now. We have a new bass player/singer in the band named Nick Tolford. He sounds like Tony Montana on steriods.
Mount Carmel is:
Matt Reed: Guitar/Lead Vocals
Nick Tolford: Bass/Back-up Vocals
James McCain: Drums

Rousing rhetoric but PM lacked hard facts
Reacting to Prime Minister Theresa May’s speech to the Conservative Party Conference, Scott Knowles, Chief Executive at the Chamber, said: “There was some rousing rhetoric in her speech but it was short on hard facts.
“She said she wanted to back business and said Britain would have the lowest corporation tax in the G20, meaning that under her Government Britain would be open for business beyond Brexit. That’s good, but we need more.
“We need a full review of business bureaucracy in this country, starting with the broken business rates system so that businesses don’t have to face huge upfront costs that take no heed of ability to pay.
“We need proper and equitable investment in infrastructure, beyond even that which was mentioned by the Chancellor in his speech to the conference.
“We need closer ties between education and business so that school leavers are equipped with the skills employers need, not just qualifications designed by academia and of little value in the real world.
“And Mrs May said that at next year’s spending review people will see that austerity has worked, that there is a light at the end of the tunnel and that spending will start to go up - because people need to know austerity is over and their hard work has paid off.
“The proof will come however, only when the Government’s actions match her words.”Back

Cycling continues to grow in popularity, with slightly more people relying on two wheels as their main mode of transportation than they did five years ago, according to a report published Tuesday by the lobby group Vélo Québec.
The report found that more people, especially in urban centres, are opting for cycling as a mode of transportation. About 1.9 million people bike to and from work and school.
In Montreal, rides as transportation rose by 57 per cent in the short span of five years. There are about 116,000 trips made on a daily basis across the city.
Vélo Québec credits the spike to an expanded network of cycling paths and the city adopting bike-friendly policies.
The report shows that biking is equally popular across the sexes. In Quebec, about 45 per cent of 3.2 million adult cyclists are women.
The biking trend is also continuing to grow — an additional 600,000 Quebecers have taken up biking in the last 20 years.
There has also been a spark in cycling among children and teens. Seven out of ten cyclists between the ages of six and 17 hop on their bikes every week.
More cyclists are also choosing to brave winter weather and bike year-round, at least in part because cities and towns are adopting more bike-friendly policies.
The data is a result of Velo Quebec’s fifth study, but the first time it has looked at cycling’s economic impact: the study says cycling is worth more than $1 billion in sales and tourism.
Velo Quebec uses studies such as this one to try to inform politicians. Recently, the Quebec government introduced changes to the Highway Safety Code, including obliging drivers to stay at least one metre away from cyclists and increasing fines for dooring.

An Instant Pot Taco Mac and Cheese that’s super cheesy and loaded with flavour! Easily made gluten-free and/or vegan, it’s a perfect option for those looking for a quick and healthy meal.
Boxed mac and cheese was the first thing I learned how to “cook.” Or maybe it was pancakes… But for the sake of this post, let’s say it was mac and cheese.
I don’t even remember how old I was, but it was young enough to consider the act of adding a box of noodles to a pot of boiling water and dumping a packet of neon orange powdered cheese on them an exercise in culinary brilliance… especially when I didn’t disintegrate the noodles by overcooking them.
No shade to Kraft Dinner, by the way – that stuff was delicious. It was also a dietary staple when I was in my early teens. Actually, if we’re being completely honest, I ate it well into my 20’s. Like I said… delicious. Oh, and by Kraft Dinner I mean Kraft macaroni and cheese. Apparently it’s only “Dinner” in Canada. But I digress.
I’d like to think that I’ve come a long way since those early days in the kitchen. And while I don’t eat the boxed stuff that often anymore, mac and cheese continues to be a pretty big staple in my diet. Well, this Instant Pot taco mac and cheese is anyways…
How To Make Instant Pot Taco Mac and Cheese
Well, first you need an Instant Pot. I may try this recipe on the stovetop and add an alternative cooking method to the recipe instructions at some point, but for now I recommend using an Instant Pot. It’s easy, it’s fast, and it’s magical – ingredients go in and, 5 minutes later, meals come out. All you have to do is plate is and add your toppings.
So here’s how you do it:
- Start by sautéing your onion and bell pepper, which you can conveniently do right in the
magicpot. This is the only part of the recipe that requires any real hands-on work since you have to dice the veggies and stir them around for a couple of minutes while they’re sautéing.
- After that, toss in the remaining ingredients (minus the cheese), give them a stir, seal the pot, set it to cook on high for 5 minutes, and walk away.
- When the pot is done working its magic, use the valve to release the pressure quickly, carefully remove the lid, stir in the cheese, let it get all melty, and then serve with desired toppings!
Oh, and for toppings I recommend avocado, shredded lettuce, lime juice, and more salsa. Anything you would put on a taco, really.
Okay, but what’s it like?
Like I said, this dish is another regular in our home, and I love it because it’s:
- Quick – 10 minutes of prep, 5 minutes in the pot
- Easy – one pot, minimal chopping, set-and-forget
- Healthy – nutritious ingredients, no nasty stuff
- Filling – lots of fibre and protein
- Loaded with flavour – spices, salsa, avocado, oh my!
- Suuuuuper cheesy and creamy
It’s also super easy to customize according to your dietary needs. It’s naturally vegetarian, as it uses lentils in place of meat, but you could easily take it a step further and make it vegan by using a non-dairy cheeze. To make it gluten-free, use gluten-free noodles.
It boasts an impressive 16 grams of protein and 7 grams of fiber, making it a deliciously filling and healthy meal choice for any day of the week. It even refrigerates and stores well, so you could make it ahead of time and just reheat it when you’re ready to serve.

instant pot taco mac and cheese
- Total Time: 21 minutes
- Yield: 4 servings 1x
- 1 tsp (5 ml) vegetable oil
- 1/2 onion, diced
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1/2 tsp chili powder
- 1 1/2 cups (170 g) uncooked elbow macaroni*

- 2 cups (500 ml) water
- 1/2 cup (56 g) shredded cheese**
Optional Toppings: fresh cilantro, diced avocado, guacamole, pico de gallo, shredded lettuce, etc.
- Turn Instant Pot to ‘sauté’. Add the oil and let it get hot.
- Add the diced onion and cook until it begins to soften, ~2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the bell pepper and sauté for a few more minutes. Stir in the cumin, and chili powder, and cook for another minute.
- Press ‘cancel.’ Add the macaroni, corn, lentils, salsa, and water, stirring well until everything is combined. Place the lid on the Instant Pot and lock it into place, making sure the pressure release valve is in the sealing position. Select ‘pressure cook’ and cook on high for 5 minutes.
- Once it’s finished cooking, open the quick release valve to release the pressure. Remove the lid and stir in the cheese, letting it melt. Serve warm and garnish with desired toppings.
* I used gluten-free noodles, but if you don’t need this dish to be gluten-free, use regular macaroni noodles.
** 1/2 cup is mostly just a baseline. Start there, and if you want it cheesier, add more cheese.

Water managers across the West gathered in Las Vegas Wednesday for the start of the annual Colorado River Water Users Association.
The meeting includes those from the seven states that rely on the Colorado River as well as tribal leaders in those states.
It’s expected those at the conference will lay out plans to combat ongoing drought and expected shortages.
The Bureau of Reclamation has predicted a 57 percent chance Lake Mead will hit shortage level as soon as 2020.
Arizona and Nevada would experience cuts first if the lake drops too low.
Arizona is one of the holdouts in finalizing its drought contingency plan, and it’s likely the state will be a focus at this week’s conference.
Arizona Governor Doug Ducey threatened this week to veto any drought contingency plan that does not equitably divide up the pain of water cuts in 2020.

The people responsible for a weekly report released by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have been in “trench warfare” with Washington officials over the report’s scientific integrity, infectious disease specialist Dr. William Schaffner said Monday.
Schaffner said he was “very disturbed” by the news that Trump-appointed officials at the Department of Health and Human Services pushed the CDC to change its weekly science reports so they would not undermine President Donald Trump’s political messages.
“I’ve since learned that the people who run that program, who put out that bulletin, have been in trench warfare with the folks in Washington,” Schaffner told CNN. “They have struggled and succeeded, I think, in maintaining the scientific integrity of those reports, but that struggle continues.”
Schaffner, a professor of infectious diseases at Vanderbilt University Medical Center who spent a brief time at CDC and who often works closely with the agency, added that it’s “totally inappropriate” for Washington to try to influence the report, but the American people can still trust the information they are getting from the CDC.
“We can trust what we’re getting. These are professional people,” said Schaffner. “They’re just working on behalf of the American people.”
