This week’s guest post comes from Izzy from The Next Somewhere. She explains ‘Travel is at the heart of my story. My parents started it all, having immigrated from the United States from the Philippines for a shot at the American Dream. Both my mother and father were explorers in their own right. My mother worked as a Respiratory Therapist in Manila for 3 years before she decided to broaden her horizons and move to Saudi Arabia. My father on the other hand, worked in the airline industry milking all the travel perks for what it was worth. Having two parents who loved to travel opened me up to new experiences and because of that, I saw a good portion of the world before I was even ten-years-old. We now find ourselves in Ho Chi Minh City, I am now a full-time travel writer, working as the editorial and production manager of the Vietnam Tourism Advisory Board, working to relaunch the official Vietnam Tourism website.’
1. What is your name and where do you come from?
Izzy Pulido, Boston by way of the Philippines
2. What sort of traveller are you?
A cultural traveler. I travel primarily to gain insight about humanity in all its forms. My traveling habits fall on opposite ends of the spectrum: I either go to a destination for a short time (3-5 days) and pack my days with as many things to do as possible OR I decide to move somewhere for a year (I’ve lived in Thailand, South Korea, The Philippines and Vietnam and done 2-4 month stints in Canada and Italy.)
3. How do you fund your travelling?
The hustle. When I was in college, I was juggling a total of 5 jobs to make sure travel happened. I also participated in service trips and fundraised my trips in the name of academia. Then I decided to uproot my life in favor of teaching abroad in Korea so I could sustainably travel. Currently, I’m a full-time travel writer and enjoying the benefits of seeing the world and writing about it for a living.
4. Where is the best place you have ever been and why?
No doubt Nepal. If you’ve ever found yourself losing faith in the goodness of people, just buy a ticket to Nepal and 100% guarantee you’ll find your faith restored. On top of it being so visually stunning with mountains everywhere, the Nepali are the most beautiful, kindest spirits I have ever encountered in my life.
5. Where is the worst place you have ever been and why?
This is a hard question to answer as you never want to be offensive but I just had one terrible experience after another in New Delhi. I refuse to let New Delhi impose on my time in India but those 72 hours in New Delhi were by far some of the hardest hours I’ve ever had to endure in all my travels. Scams, manipulation, and unwanted touching. Misadventures are part of the package but those experiences scarred me and robbed me of so many moments to take in the historical beauty of the city.
6. Do you have a Bucket List? If so where are the 3 top places on it?
My bucket list right now is like 200 items deep and counting. Above all things: I want to visit all 198 countries in the world. If we’re getting specific here, it would be: 1) Bathe in the Devil’s Pool at Victoria’s Falls; 2) Walk the Camino del Santiago; and 3) Visit all 7 Wonders of the New World – 3 out of 7! The Great Wall is happening next spring!
7. What 3 things (apart from the essentials – food/water etc) do you always travel with?
My 11” Macbook Air goes with me everywhere because that blogger life. But also a sarong because you can use that for everything (eg. towel/skirt/blanket) and my Instax camera because print isn’t dead! The polaroids are the best souvenirs!
8. What makes you happy and why?
Good food, good peeps, good times. The trifecta of happiness 😀 And it would be remiss of me not to mention my family and my man. They’re my happiness.
9. How long have you been blogging and why did you start?
I launched my blog on Sept. 9th of 2015 while I was on the road backpacking but I didn’t start regularly posting until February 2016 so just hit the year mark. I started my blog because I came to a point of realization that I never properly documented my travels in the last 24 years. I was also suffering from some severe social anxiety at the time and thought a creative outlet would be a good way to cope. [IT WORKED.] I’ve tried to blog before… actually this is my third attempt at blogging!
10. What makes your blog unique and why should people read it?
Oooooh, well. My blog is unique because it isn’t a traditional blog. It’s more of personal journal that reads like a blog. I think of it as a digital scrapbook because it’s about a traveler’s journey more than “tips” on where to go and what to pack. I write about whatever I want, not based on SEO. Oh, and all the graphics on the website are created by scratch so it’s all very personal. It’s an extension of myself for sure.
From ESLT – thank you Izzy for taking the time to answer our questions. Safe Travels 🙂

NEW YORK - Even as Boeing inches closer to getting the 737 Max back in the air, new problems with the plane are emerging that go beyond the software that played a role in two deadly crashes, write Natalie Kitroeff and David Gelles for the New York Times. Continue reading original article
The Intelligent Aerospace take:
January 6, 2020-It's a new year, and a new potential set of problems for the aerospace giant Boeing, as the New York Times wrote a piece on Sunday (and updated it today) chronicling issues discovered by the Chicago-based company during an internal audit requested by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The news came after Boeing announced former CEO and boardmember Dennis A. Muilenburg had resigned.
According to the Times, Boeing is considering whether or not to separate two bundles of wires that are close together and may cause a short in the beleaguered Max. The fix, if deemed necessary, Boeing said would be the application of a clamp to separate the bundles. The Times reporters noted that the fix would take approximately one to two hours per plane.
“We are working closely with the F.A.A. and other regulators on a robust and thorough certification process to ensure a safe and compliant design,” Gordon Johndroe, a Boeing spokesman, said in a statement to the Times. “We identified these issues as part of that rigorous process, and we are working with the F.A.A. to perform the appropriate analysis. It would be premature to speculate as to whether this analysis will lead to any design changes.”

Updated at 4:28 p.m. ET on July 30, 2018, to include a statement from CBS Corp.'s board about the investigation into allegations of misconduct by long-time CEO Les Moonves.
CBS Corp.'s board is selecting outside counsel to lead an investigation into allegations of misconduct against Chairman, President and CEO Les Moonves, but "no other action was taken" on the matter at a meeting July 30, according to a company statement.
The board also chose to postpone a shareholder meeting that was scheduled for Aug. 10. A new date was not announced. CBS Corp. is scheduled to report its latest quarterly earnings results Aug. 2.
While the board meeting was previously scheduled, the agenda was updated to include potential actions to take related to the probe of Moonves following a July 27 article in The New Yorker that detailed allegations that he sexually assaulted and threatened six women.
The piece, written by Ronan Farrow, who was among the journalists who won a Pulitzer Prize for reporting on sexually predatory behavior by powerful men, including disgraced former Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein, also described a culture at CBS News that tolerated abusive behavior toward women.
Before the story was published July 27, the CBS board voiced its "full support" for Moonves and his management team, noting the company's ongoing legal dispute with majority shareholder National Amusements Inc. over control of CBS. Shari Redstone, president of NAI and vice chairman of CBS and Viacom Inc., has filed suit asking the court to stop CBS' board from trying to dilute its voting control.
The legal action stems from NAI's push to recombine Viacom with CBS. The litigation is unfolding in Delaware Chancery Court. Moonves is among several members of CBS' board named in those proceedings.
CBS stock declined 6.1% on July 27 to close at $54.01 per share. The stock continued to fall on July 30, shedding another 5.05% to close at $51.28. Viacom, meanwhile, was off by 1.94% to end trading July 30 at $28.78.
On July 30, CFRA downgraded CBS’ B shares to "hold" from "buy." CFRA analyst Tuna Amobi said the action comes amid a potential cloud on the near-term outlook, ahead of the directors' meeting. Amobi said that while Moonves has largely denied the allegations, CFRA sees a number of possible outcomes that could make his tenure "increasingly tenuous" amid the heightened sensitivity of the #MeToo movement.
He called the timing inauspicious for CBS given the litigation against NAI under Shari Redstone, "who might seek to exert further leverage under the current circumstances."
With Redstone already calling for a "thorough, open and transparent" investigation, Amobi sees potential far-reaching implications for CBS' corporate governance and possible questions related to management succession.
BTIG analyst Rich Greenfield wrote in a note that "all eyes should be on" CBS' annual shareholders' meeting.
Greenfield said he was "extremely surprised" to see the independent directors of CBS immediately try to connect The New Yorker story to its ongoing battle with NAI's majority shareholder. "Regardless of Moonves' personal fate, his future and the future of nine other CBS Board of Directors is now in question," wrote the analyst.

The Golden Resource Pack 1.7.5
In Minecraft, there are some resource packs which change up the way things look to get away from the cartoony appearance which comes with the standard game. Other resource packs, like The Golden texture pack, actually go further into that cartoony look, developing on it more while brightening up the world and everything in it. All the woods, waters and sands in Minecraft get a touching up and brightening in The Golden , which does the same for just about everything except for torches, oddly enough. Glowstone and lava are bolder and clearer but torches look more or less the same as they do in standard Mincraft.
The Golden resource pack features flat, linear constructions that look even less realistic than the textures found in Minecraft originally. Burning fire is one of the only dynamic elements in this resource pack, which has some of its own unique elements to consider as well. For instance, there are two other giant mushroom types; blue and orange goliath mushrooms can be found in those special biomes as well now. Aside from torches, these giant mushrooms are pretty much the only things in The Golden resource pack which look like their original textures from Minecraft. Even wool and stone blocks have been updated and changed.
Water, on the other hand, hasn’t been touched up much at all. It’s a bit brighter and easier to see through, but the unreal textures beneath might make players wish the view wasn’t so good. Bookshelves, which were already colorful, do not look much different in The Golden resource pack. The resolution for blocks in this resource pack is 32×32, which explains a lot when it comes to the flattening out and smoothing of a majority of the textures. This will probably run better for some players than standard Minecraft because of the low resolution textures.
How to install The Golden?
- Download the latest pack from the download section.
- Find in "%appdata%", ".minecraft" folder.
- Locate in ".minecraft" your "resourcepacks" folder.
- Drag and Drop the texture .zip file into this folder.
- Open Minecraft and go to Options -> Resource Packs...
- Select in this list Resource Pack that you have installed.

The wood is on fire tonight. Changeable light, the sun sinking, the sky shrinking into red and flaring up. Light, coming from the ground fills up the forest all with flame.
The wood tonight smells like a rotting apple, Dionysian feast for rabbits. Watch them run through their wanders, drunk, besotted on this goblin yellow yield. Fox, in this forest, himself a flame.
Who knew how this secret place would give one final graceful orgy out? Who could anticipate this mad enraptured succulence?
Over the bridge it seems the gully is not what it was. Live leaves run it down. They own it. They run in it a current of all currents, and not.
Woman’s face, a beaming brown sun. Her self one with the forest and the mood of this place, me, one, each of us greeting the other as she who has seen and taken part in revelry, this Dionysian moment, this hinge, as we fall from and into.
Once again, this woodpecker upon a tree holds his own reign, holds forth his rhythm. He fears not the fire running up the very limbs of trees, for his limbs are not tied to earth as rabbits are tied to earth. Let him be drunk on sap. If he falls he fears not. Flight carries him up, up, red jaunty cap its own rising lick of flame.
And if we built a shelter here, my love, what doves we could become! Thee and me curled small in the cave of fallen trees. What elegance need we, when this pyramid of our making will hold against any winter’s fall? Bring thee thy skin to my chin. We will curl small, smaller. Smallest of all, make me into a seed. Bury me under these trees, this mound, this architectonic ground. Let me sleep, shiver, as the last flames of autumn run high, higher. I sink.
And there she is, my other part, my counterpart, the flip to my friend. Her smile is galactic, wide as the wood is wide. Her eyes shine.
And there is the joy of the woman in the wood. And there is the joy of the wood in the woman.

On May 11, 2013, the Jersey Shore Convention and Visitors Bureau (JSCVB) will set in motion the official start of the 2013 Summer Tourism Season with a Super Summer Kick-off Party at Monmouth Park Racetrack in Oceanport, New Jersey.
This year’s opening day festivities will focus on further advancing the message of the JSCVB Recovery Campaign that the communities along the coast are healing and, “The Jersey Shore Is Open For Business.” The daylong event, held in conjunction with Monmouth Park Racetrack and The Star-Ledger, promises to be a splendid example of the collaborative and unique culture that has come to be known as life at the Shore. Since Hurricane Sandy forever changed the Jersey Shore landscape in October 2012, this event is just one way to salute those businesses that are up and running just months after the storm.
The day’s festivities will include a classic/exotic car show, a hot air balloon launch featuring the “Monster” balloon,, a business expo, and of course, top-notch thoroughbred racing. The event aims to showcase that New Jersey and the Jersey Shore are strong, resilient, and “Open for Business,” while paying tribute to the traditions and customs that are woven together and exemplify the vibrant and robust nature of the region’s seaside life.

Report on ongoing actions pushing back on attacks on the houseless in so-called Aberdeen, WA. Originally published on Sabot Media.
After delivering a 72-hour notice on Monday, the City moved in around 10am on Friday with bulldozers and dump trucks in order to commit an illegal sweep of the River St encampment of unhoused individuals.
Many people had no time to prepare as the week was filled with rain and wind. Despite being given a sheet of paper that described a process for the City to hold and store their property for 60 days, everything that wasn’t grabbed by the campers and set out on tarps across the train tracks was thrown in the back of the dump truck with all the other debris.
The City was using building code violations and health and safety as reasons to commit this illegal act. Although, now the campers have been further traumatized, stolen from, and will now be forced into tiny tents instead of the more spacious and easier to heat wooden structures that had been built up. There is no way this callous action was aimed at securing better living conditions for those affected.
The police were there to make sure that anyone who provided any resistance was threatened with arrest.
SOAP, or Save Our Aberdeen Please – our local fascist political organization – was present to video tape and laugh at peoples’ trauma. Their political base elected the very Mayor and City Council members who made today possible. They are well organized and motivated, and our counter operations should not underestimate them.
With smiles on their faces like this was just another day at work, the City workers used two large claw machines to smash and lift the debris into many dump trucks, the remainder was swept and shoveled up.
Chehalis River Mutual Aid Network was on site before the City. They set up a canopy with food and coffee, distributed literature on the laws and rights of people on the streets, and took some surveys responses from campers affected by the City’s actions. They also held signs in protest of the City’s actions.
Earlier the very same day some intrepid autonomous activists dropped two banners on the Chehalis River Bridge overpass above camp. The first banner read, “Being Homeless Isn’t A Crime, STOP THE SWEEPS” and the second read, “Stop The Sweeps, You Sweep We Strike”. Both read #StopCopCity in solidarity with the forest defenders in Atlanta.
This was all during the week of action against the City of Aberdeen announced by Sabot Media, The Chehalis River Mutual Aid Network, and Food Not Bombs. The call for action and the joint statement can be found here. A homeless rights conference was held on the 5th in order to get people up to speed on what rights they had in the face of targeted harassment by the City. After a week spent distributing know your rights materials and response surveys to the unhoused community in preparation for the sweep, we found ourselves facing the wrecking crew on Friday March 10th at 10 am. People were prepared, but still traumatized and upset.
We spent the day helping people carrying their stuff out of their structures and laying it out on tarps across the road. There was no where for people to place their things out of the rain while the process of destruction was going on.
This is why showing solidarity and support through actions taken like the homeless rights conference and the protest at the sweep, not to mention autonomous actions like the banner drops, is so important. When we take actions to inform people of their rights, they are more likely to want to organize to assert those rights. When signs of support show up our comrades know they are not alone. It is our duty as radical organizers to be in the streets, showing our solidarity at these times. We are grateful to all those who responded regionally to our calls for action and made their way to Aberdeen to show up for the unhoused having their lives disrupted.

Breast augmentation patients are of various ages, from young women in their 20s to women age 40 and older. There is no right or wrong age for breast surgery. You must speak to an experienced plastic surgeon, such as The Bay Area Aesthetic Surgery team, to discuss your unique situation, including whether breast enlargement can achieve the goals you have for your body.
Some of the factors that can influence whether it’s the right time in your life for breast augmentation are:

- Emotional maturity: You should have the emotional maturity to understand and accept the risks of this surgery, and to have realistic expectations of what the procedure can achieve. You should be making this decision for yourself, and not to please someone else or fulfill someone else’s expectations.
- Financial preparedness: Breast augmentation is an investment in your body, and you must be prepared to plan for how you will meet the expense of the procedure.
If you think you are ready for breast augmentation, our plastic surgeon can discuss all the various factors you should consider as part of moving forward with the procedure.

NTSB Identification: LAX94LA045.
The docket is stored in the Docket Management System (DMS). Please contact Records Management Division
Accident occurred Sunday, November 14, 1993 in FLORENCE, AZ
Probable Cause Approval Date: 09/13/1994
Aircraft: BEECH A-36, registration: N9MP
Injuries: 2 Serious,1 Minor,6 Uninjured.
NTSB investigators may not have traveled in support of this investigation and used data provided by various sources to prepare this aircraft accident report.
The pilot did not receive a weather briefing prior to departing. An airman's meteorological information advisory (AIRMET) was issued for the pilot's route of flight. The AIRMET forecasted occasional moderate mixed icing along the flight between 6,000 feet msl and 17,000 feet msl. The pilot requested and received an IFR clearance to Tucson, Arizona, at an altitude of 11,000 feet. The pilot reported that the airplane was picking up ice, and he was unable to maintain altitude. The pilot later reported that the engine had quit, and rudder control was lost. The manufacturer's pilot operating manual specifically prohibits 'flight into icing conditions.' Postaccident data determined the airplane was almost 500 pounds over gross weight at takeoff with the center of gravity 2.0 inches aft of the limit. Examination of the pilot's logbooks revealed that he was not instrument current under FAR 61.57 (e). Postaccident tests revealed that the engine ran at full operating RPM during tests at the engine manufacturer.
The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probable cause(s) of this accident to be: the pilot's poor inflight planning and decision making by continuing the flight into adverse weather conditions. Factors contributing to this accident were: not obtaining a preflight weather briefing, not following the airplane flight manuals, and exceeding the weight and balance limits of the airplane.

Nun’s body in US found intact 4 years after death, causing a frenzytext_fields
Missouri: Sister Wilhelmina Lancaster died on May 29, 2019, at age 95.
Four years later on May 18, 2023 her body was exhumed to move to its final resting place in a monastery chapel, when a miracle of sorts struck exhumers.
Her body showed no visible decay, nevertheless it was interred in a wooden coffin.
Now hundreds of people flock to this monastery in the midwestern US small town of Missouri, to see the mortal remains of Wilhelmina Lancaster, which will be on display till May 29, The Guardian reported.
Sister Lancaster, according to the Diocese of Kansas City-St. Joseph founded the Benedictines of Mary, Queen of Apostles order in 1995.
The sisters of the monastery who were witnessing the exhuming stunned to see Lancaster’s body remaining intact.
Despite covered in layers mold, and dampness, there was little disintegration to the body over the four years.
One of the sisters reportedly said they were warned by cemetery personnel to expect just bones as the sister was buried without embalming.
‘The dirt that fell in early on had pushed down on her facial features, especially the right eye, so we did place a wax mask over it. But her eyelashes, hair, eyebrows, nose, and lips were all present, her mouth just about to smile,’ a sister who witnessed the exhuming said.
The intact body of the sister Lancaster, based on Catholicism, is considered incorrupt, giving it a dimension that quickly has drawn people to the monastery.
‘Incorruptible saints give witness to the truth of the resurrection of the body and the life that is to come,’ the Catholic News Agency said.
Now people flock to the monastery to have a glimpse of the body, with many calling it a ‘miracle of Missouri’.
A sign is placed beside the body that warned worshipers, ‘Please be gentle with touching sister's body, especially her feet.’
However, experts say that bodies remaining intact in the first few years after death isn’t uncommon.
Nicholas V Passalacqua, Associate Professor and Director of Forensic Anthropology at Western Carolina University said that ‘it is hard to say how common it is because bodies are rarely exhumed’.
Passalacqua further said that there are incidents of discovering well-preserved human remains, and cited the example of the Bog Bodies of Europe, which remain well-preserved for thousands of years.
The professor linked the wonder to ‘environments with low oxygen that restricted bacterial growth and access to the remains to scavengers.’

Policy will ensure disputes don't delay health care for Inuit children, says leader
Federal government agrees to work toward equivalent to Jordan's Principle
Ottawa is working on a policy to ensure health care for Inuit children isn't delayed while governments argue over who pays.
"Minister [Jane] Philpott is going to work with us over the summer to hopefully create a structure that allows for Inuit children to not be tied up in jurisdictional issues," Natan Obed of the national organization Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami said Wednesday.
Obed said the Indigenous services minister agreed this week at a meeting in Inuvik, N.W.T., to work towards an equivalent to Jordan's Principle for Inuit children.
"All partners agreed to work together towards the development of an Inuit-specific child-first initiative to address the challenges faced by Inuit children," Philpott said in a statement.
"We will continue to work together with Inuit to improve access to quality services and ensure that children are supported."
Aimed at overcoming red tape
Jordan's Principle is aimed at overcoming red tape that delays or prevents Indigenous children from getting the services they need. It ensures that the department first contacted pays for the service to a child and can later seek reimbursement.
It is named after Jordan River Anderson, a five-year-old boy from Norway House Cree Nation in Manitoba, who died in hospital in 2005 while the federal and provincial governments bickered over who would pay for his home care.
- Health Canada knew of massive gaps in First Nations child health care, documents show
- Council of Yukon First Nations to make Jordan's Principle more accessible in territory
More than 33,000 requests for support and services have been approved under the principle since July 2016, but it doesn't cover Inuit.
Obed said the on-reserve, off-reserve disputes that arise with First Nations are echoed in squabbles between the territories and provinces. Agreements between those jurisdictions cover basic care, but don't deal with rare diseases or chronic illnesses.
"Specific care for rare diseases or certain issues in relation to ongoing illnesses that receive constant care, that's when we get to some challenges," said Obed. "Inuit children get caught up in jurisdictional issues around care and then they don't receive the care they should receive.
"Minister Philpott has pledged to work with us to resolve those challenges."
Obed said he didn't know exactly how many children are affected, but he called it a recurring issue for parents in all Inuit regions of Canada.
"We have received many complaints from Inuit parents because their children aren't receiving the care that they should."

Thursday, 4 April 2019
Today is almost certainly the last sitting day of this 45th Parliament, and under the Liberals—under Prime Minister Turnbull and under Prime Minister Scott Morrison—these last three years have been nothing short of chaotic. Of course, in the years before that, under Prime Minister Abbott, they weren't much better either. Year after year, budget after budget, our community has been attacked, disappointed and let down by the Liberals. We live in a wonderful community in the electorate of Longman. It is full of regular hardworking Australian people, but government have turned their backs on us, because their priorities simply lie with the top end of town.
On Tuesday night the Treasurer released his budget. After six years of the Liberals' cuts and chaos, and around six weeks before an election, this budget was their last chance to reverse the cuts to the essential services that everyday Australians rely upon. But again Longman residents have been let down by the same cuts to hospitals, schools, pensions, penalty rates and TAFE. While, unfortunately, that didn't come as a surprise to me, what I wasn't quite prepared for was what the government did in this budget. This time they're relying on a huge, $1.6 billion underspend on the NDIS to fund this con of a budget. It is an absolute disgrace. It is not an achievement at all.
Tonight the Leader of the Opposition, Bill Shorten, will announce Labor's positive plan for Australia. He will reaffirm the commitment that a Labor government will have different priorities to the Liberals. Labor will prioritise working people over the top end of town. We will prioritise hospitals and schools over banks. While this government has given up governing, Labor will be leading the way forward. We have a plan that will bring back a fair go for people in my community—for people at Bribie, for people in Caboolture and Woodford, Narangba, Burpengary and Wamuran. We're sticking up for local workers and standing up for what's fair.
For far too long my community has been let down by this Liberal government's misguided priorities. That's why I'm proud to be standing with Labor to reverse the Liberals' cuts—to reinvest the millions they ripped out of our local schools; to put the $2.9 million back into Caboolture Hospital; and to give back to the many, many workers who've had their take-home pay slashed under the Liberals their hard-earned penalty rates. I know that in six weeks, when the election rolls around, the people of Longman won't forget what the Liberals have done in the last six years. They won't forget the cuts and they won't forget the chaos. They want someone to stand up and fight for them, to stand up for a fair go. Tonight in Labor's budget reply we'll show them that's only possible under a Shorten Labor government. (Time expired)

Reed avocados are large, sweet, and creamy avocados that grow in Hawaii. They have a nutty flavor and creamy texture, making them perfect for many recipes. The flesh is light green or yellowish-green in color with delicate, thin skin. Reed avocados are harvested from mid-December to late April and can be found in most grocery stores yearly. Here is everything you need to know about Reed avocados:
What are Reed Avocados, and why are they so popular?
Reed avocados are large, sweet, and creamy avocados that grow in Hawaii. They have a nutty flavor and creamy texture, making them perfect for salads, guacamole, smoothies, or eating right out of the skin.
The flesh is light green or yellowish-green in color, and its texture and are quite similar to those of an avocado. Reed avocados are slightly larger than other types of avocados such as bacon avocados and contain more fat content, and are rich in essential vitamins and minerals such as Vitamin C, Potassium, Magnesium, and Iron. This makes them an ideal choice when looking to add a healthy snack to your diet.
History and Origin of the Reed Avocado:
The Reed avocado was discovered in Hawaii over a century ago by an American businessman named Captain John D. Reed. It is said that he planted the original seedling himself and thus gave rise to the popular Reed avocado variety. Since then, avocado has become widely cultivated worldwide throughout Hawaii and other tropical regions.
The Nutritional Benefits of the Reed Avocado:
Reed avocados are an excellent source of nutrition. They contain many essential vitamins and minerals, including Vitamin C, Potassium, Magnesium, Iron, and dietary fiber. The fat content is also relatively high compared to other avocado varieties. This makes them a great choice for those looking to add a healthy snack to their diet.
Additionally, Reed avocados are known to be naturally low in sugar, which benefits those with diabetes or blood sugar issues.
Flavor Profile of the Reed Avocado:
Reed avocados have a nutty flavor and creamy texture. They are slightly sweet with a hint of tartness. The flesh is light green or yellowish-green in color with delicate thin skin. This makes them perfect for adding to salads, guacamole, and smoothies or eating right out of the skin.
Where to find the Best Quality Reed Avocados?
Reed avocados are usually harvested from mid-December to late April. If you are looking for the best quality Reed avocados, purchasing them directly from local farmers or vendors in Hawaii is recommended. This ensures you get fresh and ripe fruit with all the nutritional benefits. If this is not an available option, most grocery stores should also have a good selection of Reed avocados.
How to tell when a Reed avocado is Ripe?
It can be difficult to tell when a Reed avocado is perfectly ripe. You can look for some signs, such as the skin should be slightly darker in color and feel somewhat soft when lightly pressed. The fruit should also have a nutty aroma. It might only be fully ripe if it has all of these qualities. It has likely gone bad if it feels too soft or mushy and should be avoided.
How to Store and Preserve Reed Avocados?
Reed avocados should be stored in the refrigerator at a temperature of 40°F or less. If they are not used within one to two days after being picked, they should be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to four days. To preserve unused Reed avocados, you can store them in a freezer-safe bag and freeze them for up to six months.
Ways to Use Reed Avocados in Everyday Life:
Reed avocados can be used in a variety of ways. They are perfect for adding to salads, tacos, guacamole, smoothies, and other dishes along with cilantro and other things. Additionally, Reed avocados can be eaten just as they are or blended into a nutritious dip or spread. Lastly, Reed avocados contain plenty of healthy fats, making them an excellent choice for cooking.

Every detail of the McCarl Dental Group is oriented toward your dental health and comfort. No where is that more important than your routine visits for general dental hygiene. Our accomplished doctors are complimented by our highly trained team of dental hygienists who are skilled at making you feel comfortable and relaxed throughout your visit.
All of our registered dental hygienists keep up with the latest procedures and innovations in dentistry through routine continuing education classes. These include the latest periodontal therapies as well as current dental products and materials. We are all trained in nutritional counseling and oral cancer screening.
We recommend a professional dental hygiene visit at least twice a year. Your visit will include professional cleaning, tartar removal, plaque removal, x-rays (if needed) and fluoride treatment. Your healthy, beautiful smile is our mission.
Dental Exams in Millersville, MD
The American Dental Association and the team at McCarl Dental Group recommend a professional checkup and cleaning twice per year, or once every six months. During these periodic hygiene visits, a member of our dedicated team will make sure that you are comfortable and relaxed before performing a thorough cleaning and assessment of your teeth and gums. These routine checkups also present the perfect opportunity to ask any questions you may have about treatment and your oral health.
Fluoride is a naturally occurring element that fortifies the strength of tooth enamel. With fluoride treatments at McCarl Dental Group, we can ensure that your teeth are better protected against the acid-causing bacteria responsible for tooth decay. This type of treatment is particularly helpful for children and adults who are at a high risk for dental caries.
Periodontal Therapy in Greenbelt and Millersville, MD
The dentists and dental hygienists of the McCarl Dental Group have extensive experience and continued educational training for all aspects of periodontal treatments and gum diseases. The periodontal treatments we provide are based on the patient’s unique requirements but are most frequently classified as Gingivitis or periodontitis.
Common risk factors to consider include:
- tobacco smoking or chewing
- systemic diseases such as diabetes
- some types of medication such as steroids, some types of anti-epilepsy drugs, cancer therapy drugs, some calcium channel blockers and oral contraceptives
- bridges that no longer fit properly
- crooked teeth
- fillings that have become defective
Several warning signs that can signal a problem:
- Gums that bleed easily
- Red, swollen, tender gums
- Gums that have pulled away from the teeth
- Persistent bad breath or bad taste
- Permanent teeth that are loose or separating
- Any change in the way your teeth fit together when you bite
- Any change in the fit of partial dentures
Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you feel as though you may require periodontal treatment.
Oral Cancer Screening
You may not think 'dentist' when you hear the words `cancer screening,' but part of every dental check up involves looking for early signs of oral cancer. During your dental hygiene exam, our doctors and hygienists perform routine oral cancer screenings by inspecting a patient's tongue, floor and roof of the mouth. If these preliminary screenings warrant additional investigation, our doctors or hygienists may suggest additional steps.
According to the American Dental Association, properly fitted athletic mouthguards effectively prevent approximately 200,000 injuries in collegiate and high school football every year. Custom-fitted to your unique dentition, our athletic mouthguards have been shown to reduce the risk of serious injury to the lips, tongue, teeth, gums, and jaw. In fact, athletic mouthguards can even diminish the severity of concussions sustained during gameplay. Ask about custom sportsguards for yourself or your children today.
Dental sealants are ultra-thin layers of coating that are applied to the chewing surfaces of teeth to protect them from harmful bacteria. Because the molars and premolars feature deep grooves along their chewing surfaces, they are more susceptible to dental caries. Once applied, sealants provide several years of increased protection from cavities. The sealant application process takes only a few minutes per tooth and is completely painless.

What is Polyester Fabric?
Since a previous blog post was about what nylon is, we decided to now focus on polyester fabric! Like nylon, polyester is one of the most popular synthetics in the world. It’s a plastic that is in everyday products but is also fibers for making fabrics. You also live your entire life with polyester by your side whether you know it or not. From fabric to your own computer, polyester is somewhere in your life so it’s time to find out more about it!
Polyester is a polymer, meaning it is a plastic that has a molecular structure of a large number of similar units bonded together. Think of it like a metal chain with repeating links. It is a synthetic fiber made by a chemical reaction between an acid and alcohol. In this reaction, two or more molecules combine to make a large molecule whose structure repeats throughout its length. Therefore, like a metal chain, polyester fibers can form very long molecules that are very stable and strong.
The most common type of chemical reaction used to make polyester takes place at high temperatures around 302-410°F in a vacuum-like kettle. Chemicals are mixed to form a compound known as a monomer or a molecule that can be bonded to other identical molecules. This reaction is known as polymerization. Long fibers from this process are stretched until they are about five times their original length. The resultant fiber forms an arrangement of molecules that are very strong! Once cool, the material is cut into tiny chips.
These chips are melted at about 500°F to form a thick liquid-like solution. This syrup solution begins going through a spinneret, which is a wheel with tiny holes. Fibers of different length and thickness are made by using holes of different sizes and drawing them out at different speeds. The more strands wrapped together means the thicker and stronger the yarn.
Advantages of Polyester Fabric
Polyester has both excellent strength and quick drying, allowing it to stand up to any sport. It has a fantastic elastic recovery meaning that fabrics can stretch to their limits without losing their initial shape. In addition, polyester has good abrasion resistance and absorbs color faster than nylon. Dyed polyester expels the water in the dye but not the dye itself. This bonds the dye with the fibers while nylon absorbs some of the water meaning it takes longer to dry than polyester.
To summarize, the characteristics that have made nylon fabric in particular popular include:
- Very durable and abrasion resistant
- Resists water, dries quickly
- Resists stretching and shrinking
- Mold and mildew resistant
- Holds color well, resists fading
Overall, polyester fabric has many beneficial uses and allows you endless possibilities for your creativity. Polyester alongside spandex creates a wicking fabric that can hold its shape and give the wearer the comfort they need during any sport.
As you can tell, polyester fabric is cool and durable option in the textile industry. This is why well over many of our products contain this yarn! Don’t forget to check out some of our hundreds of polyester fabric options to find your perfect fabric today!

The festivities, a celebration of the Robb Trust's 25th anniversary, will begin at 2 p.m. Sept. 14 at the National Hispanic Cultural Center with a variety of activities that will explore the contributions of John Donald Robb. His fascination with the traditional music and dance of the upper Rio Grande led to nearly 3,000 field recordings of music that he collected during far-flung excursions in the mid-20th century. In addition to Robb’s recordings, now housed at the UNM Center for Southwest Research, pre-concert activities will include a demonstration of how to access the Robb Musical Archives from your home computer.
Also during the pre-concert activities, [NEW LINK TO COME] Hispanic Folk Music of New Mexico and the Southwest: A Self-Portrait of a People, will be for sale. This exhaustive study based on Robb's extensive research was originally published in 1980. Now, 34 years later, UNM Press has re-published what is still considered one of the most complete syntheses of Hispanic folk music in print.
The 3 p.m. John Donald Robb, Jr. Concert will follow the pre-concert activities. This exciting concert will be curated by Enrique Lamadrid and performers will include:
All events are free, but tickets will be required and can be picked up at the NHCC box office beginning at 2 p.m. on Sept. 14. Come early and enjoy the pre-concert festivities!

Review/Theater; Medieval Mystery Plays, As Performed to Music
By MEL GUSSOW
Published: January 18, 1989
Handed down through centuries, the Medieval Mystery Plays are a native folk art in England, France and Germany. There are so many cycles and so many directorial interpretations of Bible stories that one always looks for a fresh perspective. This, unfortunately, is not forthcoming in ''Genesis: Music and Miracles from the Medieval Mystery Plays,'' an unimaginative storybook version of biblical highlights that opened last night at the Public Theater.
The bland music was written by Michael Ward, the book and lyrics (which vie with each other in banality) are by A. J. Antoon and Robert Montgomery, and the direction is by Mr. Antoon. One's disappointment is deepened by the fact that Mr. Antoon and Mr. Montgomery have both done such rewarding work in the past.
Were it not for the auspices, ''Genesis'' might pass for a mild Sunday-school entertainment. As each of the five tales unfolds on stage, one recalls other, more interesting versions, including the Open Theater's ''Serpent,'' Martha Clarke's ''Garden of Earthly Delights'' and the musical ''The Apple Tree.''
Most of the visual touches are familiar - the obligatory swirls of stage fog simulating clouds and a large, rippling sheet to denote the Flood. There are a few variations. Adam and Eve (Stephen Bogardus and Mary Munger) are seduced by a boyish Lucifer (Russ Thacker, who doubles as a bishop) offering them a crystal apple. It is the announced intention of the authors to make the tales seem more modern as the show progresses. As a result, Abraham is dressed like a Hasidic rabbi, and he and his wife have a neat little house and a rocking chair.
The dialogue and lyrics are more doggerel than verse, and finds room for clinkers like ''Cain, Cain, come here at once/Obey the old man's grunts.'' The music, played by a three-piece combo sitting offstage south of Eden, suddenly has a calypso beat when Noah begins building the ark, as if his destination might be the Caribbean. In this version, Noah's wife wants to bring along a lady friend for company, but her husband will not let her. Breaking the two-by-two rule, he decides that one nag is enough.
With Noah, one fondly recalls the Bill Cosby comedy sketch in which an incredulous Noah builds an ark to the Lord's measurements. For the record, the ark at the Public is meant to be 300 cubits long and 50 cubits high, and still leaves one with the Cosby question: what's a cubit?
The actors are earnest, if not overly expressive, although Braden Danner makes us feel Isaac's peril as Abraham threatens him with a menacing knife. Whenever Isaac is otherwise unavailable, a pathetic-looking stuffed lamb is brought out and sacrificed.
John Conklin's pastoral backdrops are an asset, as are the uncredited offstage voices, which sound like Richard Kiley and Irene Worth. They play God and an unidentified woman. The two actors bring a genuine authority to the otherwise commonplace adaptation. At one point, Adam acknowledges to God that there is ''full mickle in Your might.'' The musical ''Genesis'' is certainly lacking in mickle. AND THE LORD SAID . . . - GENESIS: MUSIC AND MIRACLES FROM THE MEDIEVAL MYSTERY PLAYS, book and lyrics by A. J. Antoon and Robert Montgomery; music by Michael Ward; directed by Mr. Antoon; choreography by Lynne Taylor-Corbett; scenery and costumes by John Conklin; lighting by Jan Kroeze; sound by David A. Schnirman and Gene Ricciardi; associate producer, Jason Steven Cohen. Presented by Joseph Papp. At the Public Theater/LuEsther Hall, 425 Lafayette Street. WITH: Stephen Bogardus, Bill Christopher-Myers, Mindy Cooper, Braden Danner, Raymond G. del Barrio, Melissa De Sousa, Ty Granaroli, David Patrick Kelly, Mary Munger, Tina Paul, Russ Thacker and Christine Toy.

Fort Bragg's 18th Airborne Corps to deploy to Iraq
The 18th Airborne Corps headquarters will return to Iraq later this year to assume command of the anti-ISIS mission.
The Army officially announced the deployment Tuesday, stating that Fort Bragg’s 18th Airborne Corps would replace the Fort Hood, Texas-based III Corps headquarters in the fall.
That unit replaced the 18th Airborne Corps in that mission in September of last year. And previously, the 18th Airborne Corps relieved the III Corps of the mission in August 2016. Army officials said the year-long deployment is part of a regular rotation of forces in support of Operation Inherent Resolve.
Officials did not specify how many soldiers would deploy as part of the mission. But previous deployments of the 18th Airborne Corps headquarters have involved approximately 450 soldiers.
Once deployed, the Fort Bragg headquarters, led by Lt. Gen. Paul LaCamera, will make up the core of the Combined Joint Task Force Operation Inherent Resolve, which leads the international coalition battling the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria.
When last deployed, the 18th Airborne Corps spent 13 months at the helm of the war while commanded by now-Gen. Stephen J. Townsend.
When Townsend returned from the deployment, he said the 18th Airborne Corps had three goals: increasing the rate and volume of coalition fires to suppress ISIS while partner forces consolidated in Iraq and Syria, liberating Mosul in Iraq and liberating Raqqah in Syria.
By the time the soldiers were replaced, Mosul had been liberated and Syrian partners had seized and cleared more than half of Raqqah.
The successes of that previous deployment are part of the reason the Islamic State no longer holds the large swaths of territory and key cities that it did nearly two years ago.
Col. Joseph Scrocca, a spokesman for the 18th Airborne Corps, said the unit has a long and proud history of combat operations and combat preparedness.
“Our service members are skilled, tough and stand ready around the clock to answer our nation’s call whenever and wherever we are needed,” he said.
In addition to the 18th Airborne Corps, the Army also announced a summer 2018 deployment for the 101st Combat Aviation Brigade, stationed at Fort Campbell, Kentucky.
The 101st CAB will deploy to Afghanistan and replace the 3rd Combat Aviation Brigade from Fort Stewart, Georgia.

Welcome back, and I hope your week has been great,
These guys were done a little while ago, back when I still painted full black base then painted the details over. They scale up nicely with the Zvezda Persians, and are less flat then them.
Once again these are not historically accurate.
Fancy dress archer:
It can get a little tricky coming up with designs and patterns that work, which is why some of their colours are sub-par, but I always like a challenge!
I have many more both painted and unpainted, somexpect to see more of these guys in the future.
Have a good one!

To help colleges recruit today’s online generation of youth, an expert on internet marketing has created the first “podcast” for admissions officers.
Podcasts are the audio version of blogs, or web journals, allowing people to create programs on any topic and distribute them over the internet. They can be downloaded to iPods or other MP3 players, or listened to on a computer. (See “‘Podcasting’ set to take off.”)
Brian Niles, CEO of interactive recruiting firm TargetX, was struck by the absence of a podcast dedicated to college recruiting and marketing at a critical time in the admissions world.
“There’s a revolution under way in recruiting communications. The old techniques are giving way to electronic tools like eMail, blogs, and online chat sessions. Many admissions people understand that, but they don’t know how to make effective use of the internet for recruiting and marketing,” he said.
“I’ll be honest–when blogs first came out, I thought they were odd. Those things have grown very quickly. Podcasting has grown even faster,” said Niles, who 10 years ago became one of the first college officials in the nation to use the internet to recruit students.
Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple Computer Inc., the maker of the iPod player, seems to support Niles’ assertion. Jobs noted in a recent speech that about 8,000 free podcasts are available on the internet. Jobs said Apple plans to create a way for podcasters to submit their work for inclusion on the iTunes Music Store. That new version of iTunes is set for release in the coming months.
Such rapid proliferation of the media form suggests that it will not be long before “podcasting” becomes as ubiquitous a term as “blogging” recently has become.
Niles said recruiters should strive to balance their recruitment materials on the leading edge of media development.
Students, faculty, and alumni are using blogs to discuss their college experiences, Niles said–and the schools are starting to place links to these blogs on their web sites as a way of offering an insider’s view on academic life at the institution. “Why not put a voice to it?” he said.
Niles initially decided to use podcasts to help demonstrate how online communications can be more timely, interactive, and entertaining when trying to attract a generation raised on the internet.
He created “On the Road,” short and informal podcasts that cover some aspect of college marketing. These internet broadcasts typically originate from a workshop or conference where he’s speaking to a higher-education audience on the strengths and challenges of interactive marketing.
“The podcasts reflect what I’m hearing on the road and what I’m seeing in higher-ed marketing,” said Niles. “I want the programs to be an easy and entertaining way for people to lean about trends, challenges, and best practices in the use of internet-based communication.”
His first few podcasts have covered such topics as the need to shorten most eMail newsletters, the similarities between choosing a college and buying a car, and ways to improve the critical campus tour for prospective students and their families. His very first podcast was an introduction to podcasts–and the potential they offer college marketers.
After releasing the first podcasts, Niles said, he began receiving requests for more information on how the medium could be used as a recruitment tool.
Niles suggested using podcasts to conduct roundtable-style interviews of students, and he said recruiters should put the technology in the hands of students. “Content comes best from the source”–university students and faculty–and “not us,” he said.
Niles also acknowledged a “content hurdle” in terms of what is currently available and what kinds of materials should be used for recruitment purposes. But he was firm on what should not be done.
“Developing the content should not be done by an agency,” he said. “Then you lose the folksiness of what makes [podcasting] so great.”
Niles has been invited to deliver a keynote address on podcasting to a group of college recruiters, marketers, and web masters at the 6th annual Web Communications and Strategies Conference, to be held July 18-20 at Salisbury University in Maryland.
