Veronica Lario has referred to her husband as Italy's Napoleon
In Italy's latest soap opera - Silvio Berlusconi's divorce - former actress Mrs Berlusconi may well have landed one of the greatest roles of her life: as a role model to her Italian sisters.
Mr Berlusconi has demanded that his wife apologise to him
Fifty-two-year-old Veronica Lario - her former stage name - has shaken Italian society with her public criticism of Italy's head of government, and the demand for a divorce from her partner of 29 years.
For the long-suffering Mrs Berlusconi, revelations that her 72-year-old husband attended the birthday party of an 18-year-old lingerie model who calls him Papi - Daddy - was the latest in a series of public humiliations.
Apart from one public outburst in 2007, she has remained silent about the PM's behaviour. But enough is enough, she says. She recently denounced his behaviour, his political methods and a culture of machismo that she said offended women's dignity.
"I can't go on being with a man who consorts with minors
He is not well," she said after his appearance at Noemi Letizia's party in Naples.
BEING MRS BERLUSCONI
In Feb 2007, Veronica demanded a public apology from her husband for his flirting, to which he replied with a written one
In the 2004 biography Veronica's Tendency she revealed that "Silvio eats lunch while attached to the phone and dinner is the same"
Veronica rarely accompanies her husband on foreign trips
The couple met in 1980, wed 10 years later and have three children in their 20s
Mr Berlusconi has said he was smitten when he first saw the 24-year-old actress on stage
She also voiced her anger over plans by Mr Berlusconi's coalition to line up several attractive young women for June's European Parliament elections, describing the party's list as "shamelessly trashy" and a "dangerous degradation of Italian politics".
Maria Laura Rodota, a commentator with Corriere della Sera's popular online forum on pop culture and politics - in Italy, the two go hand-in-hand - says Mrs Berlusconi has "struck the most formidable and effective challenge to Berlusconi's mystique to date".
But, she says, "it's extraordinarily sad that it had to be his wife who denounced him and not a female politician or the leader of the opposition".
The "Noemi and the Papi" episode together with the election affair have left many Italian women feeling uncomfortable.
For once, the dividing lines between right and left have been blurred. Influential female intellectuals and commentators from across the political spectrum have rallied to Veronica's defence - albeit on small comment-led newspaper, websites and TV programmes.
Even right-wing politician Alessandra Mussolini, grand-daughter of Il Duce, supported the PM's wife, saying that Italian women had "emerged in a very bad light from this episode".
Ms Letizia sports the gold and diamond pendant given to her by the PM
But there are few signs yet of the marital saga harming Mr Berlusconi politically.
"Italians identify totally with him," said Giuliano Ferrara, the editor of il Foglio Newspaper, which is partly owned by Veronica Lario.
Mr Berlusconi controls much of the mainstream media, and since her public comments, the first lady has taken a battering in the press. Libero, for one, ran a 30-year-old picture of the former actress topless on stage under the headline: "Veronica Ungrateful Showgirl".
"She now must apologise for having embarrassed me," proclaimed her husband in a charm offensive on national and foreign TV channels.
His position, shared by many Italians, is that she should have kept quiet about the reasons of her divorce, as it was a private matter and not a political one.
The former cruise crooner, turned media tycoon, turned right-wing politician, has rewritten the rules of Italian politics over the past 15 years, blurring the lines between TV, showbiz and politics.
Gender issues researcher Lorella Zanardo suggests that over his three mandates, Mr Berlusconi media interests have shaped a popular culture that distorts images of women.
Mr and Mrs Berlusconi were not often seen out in public together
But, while the media has fed Italians for years with gossip and reality TV intrusions into people's privacy, most Italians think he should be granted total privacy when it comes to his own conduct.
According to one recent poll, he still enjoys 66% popularity - even though the majority of Italians, 67%, defend Veronica Lario.
However, another poll published this week on the La Repubblica website, suggested his rating had slipped three points since the controversy over Noemi began.
Responsibility as a mother
"Berlusconi's media are now engaged in what appears to be a massive spin operation to divert attention, in order to bury the first lady's serious criticisms and accusations," says Corriere della Sera's Ms Rodota.
"But... I record a growing, ebullient cross-party female indignation online. It might be a minority, but it is significant in a country which is ranked almost last in Europe, with Turkey, for the freedom of the press, and I think in the long term the 'Noemi-gate' will have political consequences."
Mrs Berlusconi - until now unanimously respected as an intelligent woman known for her discretion and liberal and anti-war views - said she was compelled to act because of her responsibility towards her three children.
To the girls Barbara, 25, and Eleonora, 23, she wants "to show them that their mother can defend her dignity as a woman", and to Luigi, 20, to teach him that "respect for women must be one of the most important values for a man".
Meanwhile, on social networking site Facebook, "Veronica for President" groups multiply.
She appeared to speak for many of the 62% of Italians who did not vote for Mr Berlusconi, when she said: "I have come to wonder what kind of country we live in. Through some strange alchemy, this country appears to forgive all and justify all for its new emperor."
Some commentators have noted that Mr Berlusconi's party quietly dropped most of the attractive female candidates from its European list, after Mrs Berlusconi's outburst.
It may be a small victory, but it's certainly seen by some as a symbolic one.

Norway’s Datatilsynet does not mince words in its Brexit guidance:
“On 31 December 2020, the Brexit transition period will end. This means, among other things, that anyone who transfers personal data to the United Kingdom after this date must follow the rules on the transfer of personal data to third countries.”
“If the European Commission does not give the UK an adequacy decision before the New Year, companies that transfer personal data to the UK must ensure a transfer basis and comply with the additional terms of the Schrems II ruling if they are to continue transferring personal data after 31 December.”
Both data transmission and remote access are considered as the transfer of personal data.

Scot, I believe you said you were using the IR receiver on the PVR-350, right? Do you
have any notes or gotcha's on getting it to work. So far, I'm having no luck.
I've got ivtv installed and have got my X session running on the PVR-350's frame
buffer. Now I'm trying to get the IR receiver working but am getting no output out of
I've got lirc 0.7.2 installed. I've got:
alias char-major-61 lirc_i2c
in modprobe.conf. When I modprobe lirc_i2c it whines about bttv and cx8800 (which
aren't installed) then says:
lirc_i2c: chip found @ 0x18 (Hauppauge IR)
ivtv: i2c attach to card #0 ok [client=Hauppauge IR, addr=18]
lirc_dev: lirc_register_plugin: sample_rate: 10
So it looks like the two pieces are talking. the /dev entries seem to be correct. But
I get no output at all from irw. No errors either. I even tried plugging in a
second Hauppauge IR receiver into the card that I had laying around.
Do you have any ideas?

(LOS ANGELES, CA, NOV. 30) - Korean Air, America’s largest Asian airline, is aggressively expanding on the U.S West Coast and strengthening its relationship with SkyTeam partner, Delta, to ensure the airline’s continued leadership in 2017 and beyond.
It’s doing this by increasing the number of Korean Air flights from Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles and Las Vegas and creating a massive network between the U.S. and Asia through a blossoming partnership with Delta Airlines.
By June, Korean Air will operate almost 50 flights a week from the West Coast including 19 from Los Angeles, 14 from San Francisco beginning September, seven from Seattle and five from Las Vegas.
“We’ve added flights and improved our schedules for fast and easy connections to Singapore, China, Vietnam, Japan and almost any destination in Southeast Asia. Korean Air is the largest non-Chinese airline operating in China and our connections from the U.S. are outstanding,” says the airline’s Vice President, John Jackson.
Korean Air also will be enlarging its Delta network, offering Delta customers easy access to more than 30 markets in Asia beyond Seoul, and Korean Air customers more than 150 markets in the Americas.
“Delta will be putting its code on our flight from Houston, San Francisco and dozens of destinations beyond Seoul served by Korean Air,” Jackson says. “It’s exciting to see this relationship grow and I know it will prosper.”
Most importantly, Jackson says that Korean Air has been quietly building an impressive global network – 131 cities in 46 countries on six continents – and is poised to continue to build on that network in the future. “We have the latest aircraft with enormous creature comforts, service that’s way beyond expectations and a route map the spans the world. It’s a blueprint for success!” Jackson says.

Google announced that they will stop offering face recognition through its cloud APIs for now so that they can introduce the new policies which can prevent from the misuses of the technology.
This decision was made official by Google in a blog spot about the use of Google’s AI tools in Asia. Face recognition is being deployed rapidly in China by many of the country’s big AI companies.
Some Chinese facial recognition systems were built using government ID data, and the Chinese government is using them to find criminals and track dissidents.
Kent Walker, senior VP of Global Affairs, wrote that:
“Like many technologies with multiple uses, facial recognition merits careful consideration to ensure its use is aligned with our principles and value and avoids abuse and harmful outcomes. We continue to work with many organizations to identify and address these challenges.”
This is an amazing move by Google. According to the company they are going to develop AI ethically, but it has already faced a lot of criticism for supplying AI to the military.
There are several other companies such as big US firms like Amazon and Microsoft, will be happy to provide you with face recognition software. Even more, as the search of Github shows the code and the tools required to build a face identifying system from the start.
As there are so many concerns of people over the ethical implications of AI, some countries are calling for a coordinated international debate about ethical standards of AI.

NOAA's JPSS-1 satellite, the first of the new JPSS satellite constellation, will is scheduled to launch into space on November 10, 2017.
For years, Dr. Mitch Goldberg, JPSS Chief Program Scientist, and Thomas Wrublewski, NOAA Physical Scientist, have been working with their Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS) colleagues to prepare this next-generation polar-orbiting satellite for its trip into space.
JPSS-1, or NOAA-20 as it will be known once on orbit, will provide sophisticated meteorological data and observations of atmosphere, ocean and land. NOAA’s National Weather Service (NWS) will use JPSS data as critical input for numerical forecast models, providing the basis for three- to seven-day forecasts.
According to the NWS, 85% of the data flowing into our weather forecast models come from polar-orbiting satellites, such as Suomi NPP and, soon, the new JPSS series. Polar satellite data also provides emergency personnel with more accurate forecasts, allowing them to pre-position equipment and resources days before a storm. JPSS will continue to serve this vital role.

The weekly Grocery Giveaway, orchestrated by the Morgan County Ministers Union, is changing locations this week. On Saturday, Aug. 1, boxes of good will be handed out from the old Morgan County Middle School, located on Pearl Street in Madison, from 11 a.m. to noon.
More than $30,000 has been spent thus far on groceries for needy families struggling through the coronavirus pandemic. The Conrads Foundation donated a $10,000 matching grant, which the Ministers Union has surpassed with donations from the community.
“We exceeded the matching grant,” said Madison Mayor Fred Perriman, one of the ministers involved the effort. “It’s a huge success and each week we give out around 150 boxes of food.”
Back in April, The Morgan County Ministers Union partnered with other local churches and volunteers to distribute food boxes to help families, since so many were struggling financially from shutdowns and lay-offs associated with the coronavirus pandemic. The group continued the giveaway every Saturday, as the effort gained steam and more community partners donated and volunteered to keep it going.
The group had been giving out food from Morgan County High School, but now will distribute groceries for families from the Old Middle School on Pearl Street in Madison every Saturday at 11 a.m.
The drive-thru pick-up system allows recipients and volunteers to reduce contact and socially distance to stay safe while meeting a critical need in the community.
Madison Mayor Fred Perriman and Reverend Robert Terrell, both members of the Ministers Union, are thrilled with the generous grant donation and urge the community to step up and donate to Reverend Terrell, senior pastor of Union Springs Baptist Church in Rutledge, believes this program is especially needed this summer since the school system discontinued its summer lunch program.
“The school lunch program will not be happening this summer,” said Terrell. “So this grant is very timely and will help us pick up that slack for the summer. With the lunch program not being there, kids and their families will need our program even more than before.”
“The most important reason people are still struggling financially because of the ongoing pandemic,” said Perriman. “Especially now with the summer lunch program not in effect and people are not working full-time and a lot are not working at all and having the extra burden of the kids being home, it’s kind of an extra burden on them right now. So this is very much needed.”
On average, the grocery giveaway has been distributing about 150 boxes of groceries per week.
To donate, mail a check addressed to the Morgan County Ministers Union, located at 1901 Doster Road, Madison, GA 30563. People can also donate directly at the Grocery Giveaway, which happens every Saturday at the old Morgan County Middle School on Pearl Street in Madison from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m.

Beyond: Two Souls, Quantic Dream's lifelike interactive story starring Ellen Page, has been attached to a release date. The game should arrive on store shelves on October 8, but that's not all. Academy Awarding winning actor Willem Dafoe has been announced in a supporting role opposite Page, playing a scientist.
Beyond: Two Souls incorporates Quantic Dream's latest motion capture technology, promising to create in-game characters that you can develop an emotional attachment to. It is slated as an exclusive release on the PlayStation 3, with no announcement for PlayStation 4 as of this time.


Last week, New Jersey Governor Chris Christie told reporters that he is in talks with representatives from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the U.S. Department of Justice about easing HIPAA restrictions in situations where individuals have experienced an opioid overdose. Gov. Christie chairs the presidential commission on opioid abuse. Speaking to reporters, Gov. Christie expressed an interest in letting “parents and loved ones know when people have been reversed with Narcan,” referring to a prescription medicine that can be used to reverse an overdose. HIPAA generally prohibits the disclosure of health information to a patient’s family or friends without the consent of the patient, meaning that an individual’s parents or family might not be aware of situations where an individual has overdosed. A proposal to ease HIPAA restrictions is expected to be included in the commission’s interim report, which is scheduled to be released within the next few weeks.

What’s this?!? A savoury breakfast?!?! It’s true, this weekend I thought I’d shake it up a bit and ditch my usual oats or yogurt for this GORGEOUS Eggs Benedict with Avocado Hollandaise. And I’m glad I tried it out because it was delish. (I did have a yogurt bowl later in the day to make up for it though. Let’s not get too crazy).
Eggs Benedict is pretty tasty- usually you’ve got a perfectly poached egg, a toasty English muffin, and some Hollandaise sauce, which can be a bit rich. So today we’re lightens up the whole thing by making an AVOCADO Hollandaise because avocados are awesome and versatile like that✌ All you need is avocado, some lemon juice, salt, pepper, and paprika. And some water. That’s it baby. Then everything gets mixed up and your “Hollandaise” is ready to smother an amazing egg and a nice piece of whole grain/sprouted wheat toast.
Poaching eggs is actually really easy; there are just a few simple steps to follow:
Bring a deep pan full of water to a boil.
Add in 2 tbsp of vinegar.
Turn the heat down so that the water is at a heavy simmer. Crack your egg into a small bowl and then carefully add it to the water.
Let the egg patch for 4 minutes.
Scoop out gently with a slotted spoon!
Not too bad! The vinegar in the water adds a bit of seasoning and helps the egg whites firm up faster so they don’t go all over the place in the water. But yeah, if that sounds easy, that’s the hardest part of this whole shebang.
When to enjoy this recipe? Um, pretty much whenever because it’s so easy and SO GOOD. But it works very well for brunch, weekend breakfasts, a fun lunch, or even a breakfast for dinner situation. I love how the bright lemon works with the rich yolk and you can mop everything up with the toast- so good!
Hope you enjoy this rare savoury breakfast sighting! Have a great week:)
Slaw is so good guys! It goes on so many things- like sandwiches, bowls, and TACOS- and makes a delicious side! Today I’m sharing an amazing, fresh slaw recipe that’s lightened up with a super tasty dressing using avocado. Yum!
We’re keeping it super simple and using just one kind of cabbage and some carrots in this slaw. And if we’re going to pick just one cabbage, it’s gotta be purple cabbage! I grated up some purple cabbage and my carrots and combined them in a large bowl. This step doesn’t take very long at all, but if you’re looking for a speedier option, you can always grab a bag of pre-shredded cabbage mix at the grocery store.
The dressing is really what makes this slaw- it doesn’t require any blender whatsoever, and is so tangy and delish! I mashed up half of an avocado and mixed in some lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, and lots of salt and pepper. So easy, right? When mixed in with the veggies, the dressing loses its green colour, and so you don’t even notice that you’re eating avocado- all you taste is a fresh and amazing slaw!
This is a great addition to any supper, and would be so good on my Veggie Tacos, Epic Veggie Sandwich, or as a finishing touch to a bowl or salad! It’s so healthy, delicious, and bright, and I love how simple it is to make!
I’m SO excited for this post because sushi is my absolute favourite food. I would consider going vegan but I don’t think I could give up sushi! That sashimi- or raw fish- is just too good. Going out to sushi restaurants is always so fun, but right now depending on where you live you might not be able to go to a restaurant. So in this post I’m going to detail how to make your very own sushi at home!
Making sushi can seem complicated, but it doesn’t have to be. All you need is a few simple ingredients that you can find in the International or Asian aisles!
Sushi Rice – this is usually a Californian or Japanese short or medium grain rice, but will be labelled as sushi rice. It’s important that you use sushi rice because it’s more starchy and sticky than regular rice, which is important when spreading it onto your nori.
Sushi Nori (roasted seaweed) – these are rectangles of roasted seaweed that the rice gets spread onto, and everything gets rolled inside.
Rice Vinegar – rice vinegar is used to season up your sushi rice! If you’re making your sushi gluten free, make sure you purchase a gluten free rice vinegar.
With those ingredients as your base, you can proceed to choose any fillings you’d like. I went with some avocado, cucumber, and canned (not imitation) crab to make some great California rolls. There are so many delicious combinations you can try though- and I hope to get my hands on some sushi grade fish soon!
Some more roll ideas include:
Vegetarian- fill your rolls with mushrooms cooked in soy sauce, just avocado, carrot, or cucumber, or some combination of the four.
Sushi Grade Fish- slice up some sushi grade salmon or tuna and pair it with some creamy avocado.
Cooked Shrimp, Crab or Tuna- fill your rolls with cooked shrimp, canned crab, or canned tuna mixed with soy and avocado (see my Tuna and Avocado Poke Bowls)
Ok, so now we’ve got all of our ingredients rounded up- now it’s time to make some rolls! The first and most important step is cooking your rice.
It’s very important to rinse your rice first, to get rid of some of that starchiness. Otherwise, your rice with be too mushy. I placed mine and a bowl and rinsed and drained it about 4-5 times, swirling it around with my fingers, under the water is clear when I mixed it. I then filled the bowl with more water and let the rice soak for about 10 minutes.
Once the rice is good to go, it goes into a pot with some more water and simmers for about 10-15 minutes, until it’s cooked all the way through. I then let it cool for a bit before mixing in some rice vinegar for flavour.
Get ready to get rolling! To roll your sushi rolls, you’ll need a bamboo sushi mat- these are easily found on Amazon for around ten dollars or so. I got out my mat, covered it with a piece of plastic wrap, and placed one sheet of nori down.
I then scooped out some sushi rice onto the nori, and spread it around with my fingers to cover the whole sheet in a nice, even layer. You don’t want to see too much of the nori underneath, but you also don’t want the rice layer to be to thick, so find a good middle ground. Leave about a centimetre strip at the top empty, however, so that it can seamlessly seal the end of the roll. This picture does not illustrate this very well- do better than me!
For the rolls, you can choose if you want to have the rice on the inside, or the outside. In this demonstration I flipped my nori over so that the rice would be on the outside, but in the photos I took of my final product were of my second batch of rolls, where the rice was on the inside. I found that these were easier to roll and held together more nicely, but you can choose whichever you like best! Here I proceeded to add in my filling right on top of the rice in a straight line, leaving some space at the bottom.
To roll up the sushi, you’re going to fold over the bamboo mat from the bottom, until that overhang you left at the bottom covers the filling ingredients to form a roll. Press firmly so that everything gets held together, and keep rolling until the full sheet of sushi covered nori is rolled into a nice cylinder. You may need to pause a few times to adjust the plastic and the mat during this process. Once everything is rolled up, you can use a bit of water on your finger to seal the nori on the outside of the roll.
All that’s left is to cut the sushi into nice even pieces, dip em into some soy sauce, and enjoy! It can take a little while to get a hang of the rolling, so don’t be discouraged if your first few rolls aren’t turning out so nice- my first rolls were a bit rough. Making sushi is an art that takes years to perfect, but these homemade rolls are great for a little something different at home, and they’re super fun to make as well!
Definitely play around with filling combinations, dipping sauces, and toppings too, to make these rolls your own. If you have any questions feel free to leave a comment! Enjoy:)
1. Add the rice to a small bowl, fill it with water, and swirl it around with your fingers. You should see the water turn white and cloudy as the starch from the rice is released. Drain the rice and repeat this process 4-5 times, until the water remains clear.
2. Fill the bowl with water once more and let the rice soak for 10 minutes to remove additional starch. Drain and add the rice to a pot.
3. Add the 1 cup of water to the pot and bring to a boil, then turn the heat to low, cover, and let the rice simmer for 10-15 minutes, until cooked through. Set aside and let cool before mixing in the rice vinegar.
4. Lay your bamboo sushi mat flat on your counter and cover it with a piece of plastic wrap. Place a sheet of nori down, and proceed to spread out about half of the rice on it in an even layer, leaving an empty space of about one centimetre at the top for sealing.
5. Either flip the nori over so that the rice will be on the outside of your sushi, or leave it so that the rice will be on the inside. In a straight line about an inch away from the bottom of the nori, lay down half of the crab, cucumber, and avocado.
6. Begin rolling the sushi by folding over your mat from the bottom, an pressing firmly to make a tight roll once the empty space at the bottom of the nori has completely encircled the filling. Continue to roll your sushi by rolling the mat, pausing to adjust the plastic or the mat when needed.
7. Seal the roll by brushing a little bit of water onto the nori with your finger. Slice into 8 even rolls.
8. Repeat steps 4-7 with your remaining ingredients.
A part of shifting into fall mode for me is roasting all of those awesome fall veggies and making some hearty bowls. And of course I had to throw some sweet potatoes into this one- you know me and my sweet potatoes. Bowls are just a simple, healthy dinner idea that are quick to make and great for meal prep and busy evenings. Today I’m featuring a bunch of delicious fall ingredients, tied together with an apple cider vinegar dressing. Yum!
You guys like Brussels sprouts, right? I love them, and so I roasted a bunch of them up with my sweet potatoes till they were nice and crispy. I also got out my frozen corn. Frozen corn is like the most underrated thing. It’s so tasty and it’s ready in less than five minutes! Sometimes I just eat it as a snack. So so far we’ve got Brussels sprouts, sweet potatoes, corn, and some delicious dressing.
Next is quinoa, some avocado, and a soft boiled egg. I’ve been big on eggs lately too. They’re fast to cook and are a great source of protein.When you’ve got that golden yolk just bringing everything together in your bowl it’s just perfection😍 On top of all that I sprinkled some pumpkin seeds for an extra touch of fall, and then voila! You’ve got the perfect fall bowl that’s simple, healthy and so yum.
Hope you enjoy!
Fall Harvest Bowl
Total Time: 35 minutes
For the Bowl:
1 medium sized sweet potato, peeled and cut into cubes a couple of centimetres big
8 Brussels sprouts, washed with the outer leaves removed, and cut in half
1 1/2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 cup quinoa
1 cup water
2 cups frozen corn, defrosted
Handful of pumpkin seeds to sprinkle on top (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
For the Dressing:
2 tbsp olive oil
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1 tsp maple syrup
Salt and pepper to taste
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Toss the cubed sweet potatoes and halved Brussels sprouts in a bowl with the olive oil and some salt and pepper. Dump them on a parchment lined baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes, until soft and caramelized.
While the veggies are roasting, bring the quinoa and water to boil in a small pot. Lower the heat for a simmer, then cover and cook for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let sit until needed.
In another pot, bring water to a boil and add in the eggs. Depending on the egg size, I boil my eggs for 7-8 minutes for a runny yolk. If you have small eggs I would do 5-6 minutes. Transfer the eggs to a boil of cold water after boiling to prevent them from continuing to cook.
In a small bowl, whisk together the dressing ingredients, then set aside.
Build your bowls! To each bowl, add in half the quinoa, corn, roasted veggies, avocado, and an egg. Drizzle with the dressing and then sprinkle with pumpkin seeds to finish.
Hey guys:) I thought I’d post another meal prep recipe, because you can never really have to many of these on hand. This one is even more simple than my Mexican Inspired Meal Prep Bowls, and it’s super easy to make multiple servings of. You only need 6 ingredients (not counting oil, salt and pepper because those are a given), and about 45 minutes to hang around and keep an eye on the oven.
I never really roast any legumes other than chickpeas, but one time I roasted some red kidney beans and they got nice and crispy on the outside, and a bit soft on the inside. Today I roasted black beans and got the same awesome results🙌 They go in a Tupperware along with roasted sweet potato, brown rice with soy sauce, avocado, and cucumbers to make a delicious portable lunch🥰🥰
Definitely give this recipe a try if your struggling with school lunches! These bowls would keep in the fridge for up to a week, without the avocado on top. Just slice up a fresh avocado in the morning or the night before to top your bowl👌 Enjoy!!
Crispy Black Bean and Sweet Potato Meal Prep Bowls
Serves: 2 (double or triple the recipe for a whole week of lunches)
Total Time: 45 minutes
1 cup cooked brown rice
1 small sweet potato
1 can of black beans, drained, rinsed, and patted dry
1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 a long English cucumber, sliced thinly
1 ripe avocado, thinly sliced
1 tbsp soy sauce
Salt and pepper to taste
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Peel the sweet potato and chop it into small cubes. Add them onto a parchment lined baking sheet along with the black beans, and toss everything with the olive oil and some salt and pepper. Roast for 30-35 minutes, until the sweet potatoes are soft and caramelized.
Mix the rice together with the soy sauce. Split it evenly between two containers. Then add half of the sweet potatoes and black beans to each, as well half of the cucumbers and avocado. Store in the fridge until ready to eat!!
Hope you like this simple recipe! See you guys on Friday:)

President Trump will continue to enforce President Obama’s 2014 executive order protecting LGBTQ people from discrimination while working as federal contractors, the White House announced Tuesday.
“President Donald J. Trump is determined to protect the rights of all Americans, including the LGBTQ community. President Trump continues to be respectful and supportive of LGBTQ rights, just as he was throughout the election,” the White House announced in a statement.
“The President is proud to have been the first ever GOP nominee to mention the LGBTQ community in his nomination acceptance speech, pledging then to protect the community from violence and oppression,” it said.
The order was the first time the federal government issued explicit protections for federal workers based on their gender identity.
Rumors have spread for the last few days that Trump was set to issue some sort of anti-LGBTQ executive order, but the White House has not indicated any such order is upcoming. Press secretary Sean Spicer declined to discuss those rumors during the White House press briefing on Monday.

Are you anxious for the return of Justified? If so, this music video should help ease your pain between episodes of the popular FX series. Performed by Dave Alvin, “Harlan County Line” is off of the new soundtrack album – Justified: Music From the Original Television Series.
The Emmy® Award-winning Justified returns for its fourth season with U.S. Marshall Raylan Givens (Timothy Olyphant) picking at the thread of a cold case over 30 years in the making and unraveling a riddle that echoes all the way back to his boyhood and his criminal father’s bad dealings. Meanwhile, Boyd Crowder (Walton Goggins) finds his own criminal grip on Harlan County loosening due to a Pentecostal preacher with a penchant for theatrics and a knack for manipulation.

Grapes ready for harvest (Robyn Beck/AFP/Getty Images)
By now you've probably heard about what's been dubbed #Grapegate the story in which the New York Times posits that something called Grape Salad is the signature dish of a traditional Minnesota Thanksgiving.
Problem is, pretty much nobody in Minnesota has heard of Grape Salad.
Today, Minnesota Monthly editor Rachel Hutton whom you hear every Friday morning with John Birge on Classical MPR's "Moveable Feast" went on New York public radio station WNYC's The Takeaway to speak to host John Hockenberry. "As a Minnesota foodie," the show's website puts it, "[Rachel] explains why New Yorkers have such a hard time understanding the food of the Midwest."
At the top of the interview, Hockenberry describes Grape Salad as someone familiar with the recipe. "John, I'm impressed that you've heard of Grape Salad," Rachel says, "because everyone else that I've talked to seems to have never heard of it before."
In the course of the conversation, Rachel describes how she contacted her mother to get to the bottom of this mysterious dish. Later, she and Hockenberry speculate on Grape Salad and other recipes for Thanksgiving. "We maybe should embrace the grape," Rachel suggests, "maybe people could make this recipe for Thanksgiving and enjoy it."
Listen to the complete interview here; it runs just a bit more than four minutes:
Time for Three (Neilson Barnard)
Whenever there's a news story about a musician who has experienced trouble getting on a plane with his or her instrument, someone usually asks me if I've ever had a problem flying with my cello.
I'm happy (?) to report that I don't have a $100,000 instrument and don't play for a living, so I can put my virtually-indestructible carbon-fiber "travel" cello into a beat-up case with a bunch of padding (old beach towels), send it through as checked baggage, and restring it upon landing.
Professional musicians with precious instruments don't have that luxury. Add to that the confusing lack of consistency between airlines; the choices seem to be:
US Airways has once again denied access to a member of string ensemble Time for Three with his instrument. Double Bassist Ranaan Meyer (pictured) was told by the airline's supervisor and shift manager at Los Angeles International Airport that he would not be permitted to fly home to Philadelphia with his bass after appearing on television show 'Dancing with the Stars' on Monday night.
After being told he would not be on the flight, Meyer posted this message to YouTube:
Fortunately, Meyer was eventually able to get home:

Each Monday morning at 9:15, I join John Birge on Classical MPR to talk about stories we're featuring on our website. Here are the stories we'll be discussing today.
Remember when violinist Vanessa-Mae put her music career on pause to pursue a lifelong dream of competitive skiing? Well, there's no word on whether she's planning to pick her violin up again, but her skiing career has ended ignominiously — for at least four years.
When electronics magnate Avery Fisher donated $10.5 million in 1973, Lincoln Center promised to name the New York Philharmonic's home after Fisher "in perpetuity." Perpetuity, it seems, has now come to an end.
'Tis the season to give thanks, and hornist Gwen Hoberg asked some of her colleagues who they were feeling thankful for. They named teachers, students, and fellow musicians — but Gwen herself named an unsung hero of the orchestra.(0 Comments)
Violinist Nicola Benedetti (courtesy the artist)
Benedetti took it in stride and with a good sense of humor; she shared the video (embedded below) on her social media channels, sharing this comment on her Facebook page:
"Whoops! Little accident before tonight's performance. All is well with the bow though, don't worry! Nicky"
Given her commitment to music education, it stands to reason Benedetti would have no problem sharing a little blunder like this with her fans.
Benedetti and the RSNO perform in concert tonight, Saturday, Nov. 15, at 7:30 p.m. (1:30 p.m. Minnesota time) at the Royal Glasgow Concert Hall.
Here's that 10-second blooper from the rehearsal:(0 Comments)
Medieval art by Ambrogio Lorenzetti (1338)
It's not often that you hear the word "metal" affiliated with the word "medieval."
However, Stary Olsa a Belarusian music ensemble known for their interpretations of medieval folk music on traditional instruments recently covered a decidedly un-medieval tune from Metallica's 1988 LP ...And Justice For All. This recent clip is from a television show called Legends Live, and demonstrates the odd (but somehow satisfying) combination of instruments and techniques from the 1400s with metal music of the 1980s. Here is Metallica's "One":
How do Utah's Piano Guys create a video that revisits 50 years of Batman music and Batmobiles? Watch the video below, and you'll experience:
Over 100 tracks of cellos!
I admit, I was disappointed not to see Michael Keaton make a guest appearance.(0 Comments)
When it was announced yesterday that Kevin Smith would become the Minnesota Orchestra's new president and CEO, Minnesotans who hadn't been closely following Smith's career found their heads turning. Wait, that Kevin Smith? No, not the director of Clerks and Chasing Amy, the longtime leader of the Minnesota Opera.
I made a joke about the name via the @LocalCurrent Twitter account, and the Orchestra responded with a tongue-in-cheek tweet referencing a quote from Clerks. Given that a little confusion is inevitable, it's nice to know the Orchestra isn't averse to having some fun with it.(0 Comments)


Visakhapatnam: Campaign on coronavirus safety protocols takes off
GVMC Commissioner G Srijana asks people to wear masks and follow the regular handwashing and sanitation protocols
Visakhapatnam: To build awareness among people about Covid-19 preventive measures, a campaign will be carried out till October 30, said V Vinay Chand, District Collector, here on Wednesday.
Flagging off a rally as a part of the campaign that began here on the Beach Road with the frontline warriors, Vinay Chand mentioned that coronavirus cases show signs of stabilisation but if safety measures are not considered seriously, the pandemic will intensify.
He urged the people to consider safety protocols to contain the pandemic. The Collector appealed to the officials concerned and urged the GVMC, RTC, Revenue, Police, all government, private companies and industry officials to come forward for the campaign and educate people on the subject at large. As a part of the prevention drive, banners, hoardings, messages, cable networks and FM radio will be utilised, he added.
Participating in the rally, GVMC Commissioner G Srijana underlined the need to don a mask and stressed on regular handwashing and sanitation protocols along with the maintenance of social distance.
Joint Collector P Arun Babu, Andhra Medical College Principal PV Sudhakar, District Medical and Health Officer PS Surya Narayana, several medical officers, GVMC and medical department staff participated in the rally that stretched from the YSR statue to Kurusura submarine on the Beach Road.

Nancy Pelosi is showing more symptoms of cognitive failure each time she speaks.
It’s not the crazy stories she tells about Russian conspiracies and fabricated hate, that is typical intentional liberal political talk. No, it’s the way she stammers, slurs and intermediately struggles to find words.
In one of her latest speeches, she possibly could be suffering from a stroke.
Do you think Pelosi will make it through the summer without being admitted to hospice?
Scroll down to watch the video below.
The American Mirror reported:
“Trumpcare means heart-stopping premium increasing for anything from asthma to cancer and the list goes on — on the alphabet,” Pelosi said with her lip curling up like Elvis Presley.
“The fight against Trumpcare is a fight for children,” Pelosi said moments later. “You’ve heard me — many of you talk about (inaudible) Zoe Madison Lynn.”
Pelosi struggled to speak off the top of her head.
“Under Trumpcare,” she said before looking at her notes, “uh, has put Zoe’s future at risk…”
“Republicans offer to raise healthcare for America’s family must end now,” she proclaimed.
Moments later, Pelosi said, “The list can go on and on, I just named a few of the unfair– few areas of unfairness to America’s working families,” adding, “So the– that– what 57– 60% public p– pare against that.”
She stumbled through the history of Republican attempts to repeal Obamacare.
“So they moved to the right and set– placed in jeopardy existing, I mean, the essential benefits package,” Pelosi told reporters.
She said “lashi” before correcting herself and saying “relating.”
Moments later, Pelosi said, “Terrible bill, made worse by putting in doubt the exec– uh, the essential benefit package, and now, a hoax, a hoax on pre-existing conditions, pre-existing conditions, pre-existing conditions,” she repeated, either suffering from a brain freeze or wanting to drive home her talking points.
Calling the Republicans “not legitimate,” she said, “they have made it– put this forth to make it look like, ‘oh, we have improved the bill.’
“No, it doesn’t improve the bill, and don’t let the Amer– this is an insult to the intelligence of the American people,” Pelosi declared.
She garbled words as she asked a reporter to say his name, as well as when she tried to say “pre-existing medical condition” when she gave him an answer.
After another reporter asked a question, Pelosi responded, “Thank you for answering that,” and instead of saying “divide,” she said “debide.”
Pelosi looked to staff to help her with the name of the Kaiser Family Foundation as she struggled to recall it.
“Look at some of the experts on this subject, it’s a joke, it’s a very sad, deadly joke,” she said.

Day 1: Laguna Baltinache + Cordillera de la Sal + Valle de la Muerte Viewpoint
Departure from hotels at 10:00 am. We will visit the Baltinache Lagoons, a group of seven lagoons located 45 kilometres from the village. Its salinity level is similar to the Dead Sea and you can swim and float in the first and last of the lagoons. The intense turquoise colour of the waters surrounded by salt formations makes this place one of the most visually stunning.
We continue to the Cordillera de la Sal, which was formed millions of years ago and has a great variety of natural sculptures, different types of stratification and colours due to the mineral diversity of the place.
Finally, we head to the Valle de la Muerte Viewpoint, from where we can observe the strange formations where rocky natural sculptures and sand dunes abound. This place is also a clear example of how arid the Atacama Desert can be, since no plants grow here, which is why it has been classified as the most inhospitable place on the planet. Return to the hotel at 18:00 hs. Includes lunch.
Day 2: Valle de la Luna + Laguna Cejar + Ojos del Salar + Tebenquiche
We leave the hotel at 09:00 hs and head to the Valle de la Luna (Moon Valley), which has a series of colours and textures very attractive for its similarity to the lunar surface. From a large dune it is possible to appreciate the wonderful and surprising surroundings of this area.
Then, we go to Laguna Cejar, a unique landscape of turquoise waters and volcanoes, where we can enjoy a swim and float on the lagoon, due to its salt content.
We continue to the Ojos del Salar, two very deep blue freshwater lagoons, located in the middle of the Salar de Atacama. Finally we will go to Tebenquiche, a lagoon formed by the thawing and rains that fall during the year, and for this reason, the landscape around us changes a lot. Return to the hotel 17:00 hs. Includes lunch.
Day 3: Geyser Tatio + Guatín Trekking + Puritama Hot Springs
Transfer from the hotel at 07:00 hs and visit to Geyser Tatio, the highest geothermal field in the world (4,200 mts high), where from early morning we can appreciate an impressive activity of steam fumaroles produced by the high temperatures of its watery craters.
Afterwards, we will go to the area of Guatín Canyon for a hike, enjoying the giant cactus and the impressive scenery along the way.
Then we take the path that leads us to the Puritama Hot Springs, where you can take a relaxing bath in wells of thermal and healing waters. Return to the hotel 17:00 hs. Includes breakfast, snack and lunch
Day 4: Tuyacto + Piedras Rojas + Lagunas Altiplanicas + Salar de Atacama
We leave your hotel around 11:00 am to visit the Piedra Rojas area, but first, we make a stop at the Laguna de Tuyacto, to appreciate this beautiful high altitude lagoon. Once in Piedras Rojas, we will hike through this reddish landscape and then head to the area of Lagunas Altiplanicas, to discover a beautiful scenery that is divided into several water mirrors inhabited by a large number of flamingos and other birds.
Finally, we will visit the Salar de Atacama: the largest salt deposit in Chile. It has an arid white surface that extends over 300,000 km2 and can be appreciated thanks to the clarity of the air. Return to the hotel around 21:00 hs. Includes lunch and snack.
Day 5: Legía Lake & Aguas Calientes Salt Flat
An adventure day in the altitude. Departing at 6:00 am, we will climb until the chilean frontiere at Huaitiquina to know the most beautiful roads of Atacama.
We will start with a nice breakfast at the foot of Legía Lake, where you will be able to admire the perfect reflection of impressive volcanos on the lake`s superficie ... magic.
Next, we will visit the Salt Flat named Aguas Calientes, surrounded by slopes and volcanos that will make you feel the altiplano like nowhere else in the world. The tour finishes at 15 pm.

OUTCRY by Whitney Bradshaw
The Colorado Photographic Arts Center presents OUTCRY, a powerful and timely project by nationally acclaimed photographer and women's rights activist Whitney Bradshaw, opening August 18, 2023.
CPAC's Executive Director and Curator, Samantha Johnston, said about the exhibit, "With the overturning of Roe v. Wade and concerns about diminishing reproductive rights, there's never been a better time to share OUTCRY with our community in a safe, welcoming space for reflection and dialogue."
Since Bradshaw launched the OUTCRY project on the night of the 2018 Women's March, the series has grown to include more than 440 photos of women from all walks of life who have chosen to take a stand against a culture that too often dismisses women's voices. Drawing from her background in social work, the Chicago-based artist invites small groups of women who are not previously acquainted with each other to gather for "scream sessions," where they can express emotions—ranging from rage to sorrow to laughter—in a safe and supportive environment designed to cultivate a spirit of feminist solidarity across different life experiences. The resulting photo portraits challenge expectations around how women—and in particular, women's anger—are portrayed in traditional portraiture and mainstream culture.
Opening Reception will be Friday, August 18 from 6 - 9pm. This event is free and open to the public.
Closing Reception with the artist: October 6th 6 - 9pm.
The show can otherwise be viewed during normal gallery hours. Tuesday - Friday 11:00 am - 5:00 pm and Saturday 12:00 pm - 4:00 pm.

We stayed 7 nights and loved every minute. The rooms were kept beautifully clean. Service excellent. Pool perfect for little ones. Shuttle to Disneyland was frequent and comfortable. Food was yummy. Gardens were lovely.
Only minor grizzles- could not order drinks or food by the pool. Would have been useful to have some more shops for adults eg hairdresser,masseur, clothes. But it is all about the kids.

Wisconsin Democratic Assembly members Mark Pocan and Kelda Helen Roys, candidates in the August primary to replace Rep. Tammy Baldwin (D), declined to attend Republican Gov. Scott Walker’s “Beer and Brats Summit” held Tuesday.
The legislators said that while they appreciate bipartisan efforts, they believed this particular event was frivolous and insincere.
“I think we should focus on passing public policy to help those struggling Wisconsinites,” Roys told Roll Call. She said that only after significant bipartisan policy efforts are made would she be willing to attend such an event.
Pocan raised similar doubts about Walker’s outreach.
“The public needs to know that the past rhetoric is truly over, and that means the Governor has to take honest, meaningful steps towards working together,” Pocan wrote in a statement. “But that takes meaningful action, real compromise and cooperation, not just brats and beer.”
Walker, who invited state legislators from both parties to his official residence, billed the summit as an effort to move beyond the partisanship and discord surrounding last week’s recall effort. Ninety-eight state legislators planned to attend, according to a report in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
Democratic insiders in Wisconsin have said that Pocan is the favorite in the district’s primary race but that Roys could easily manage a victory. The state’s second district, centered in Madison, votes heavily Democratic and will almost certainly remain in the party’s hands in November.

UKA's latest set of proposed rule changes has the following:
"Unnumbered New Rule – Audio Equipment in Road Races: a proposal has been received from the UKA Road Running Management Group to the effect that audio equipment using earphones must not be used in road races and that any use of such equipment may result in disqualification."
I can see the elements of your dilemma. If you have a job in the City or other points East then travelling backwards and forwards to Richmond is going to consume valuable running/socialising time.
Living in Fulham (certainly the Chelsea end) you could do your mid-week runs in Hyde Park, your speed session at Battersea track, and your long runs in Richmond or Bushey Park - and not have to travel far to go out in the evening.
The suggestions elsewhere about Blackheath, Hackney and Ealing will not really match your criteria (and I'm the women's team manager in Ealing).
Competitively I would leave sorting out a club until you get here. You can't represent a club in competition until you have been resident two months anyway so there's no rush. If you're a serious competitive runner the first priority would be to find the right training group, a lot of the best ones have members from several clubs.
Richmond would be a better all round choice for living and running than the Docklands. The Docklands is too "inner city" to have many running options on your doorstep though safety wouldn't be a big issue.
If running territory is your main concern then the best choices are based around the big parks:
Richmond: great running and a lively place - also close to Wimbledon Common another great running park but best to run in company as it can get quite isolated there
Teddington: across the river from Richmond, real hard core running based around Bushey Park. This is where the Kenyans base themselves - not lively.
Hampstead Heath: another big running area but hillier. Lively and close to town.
Hyde Park: the central location for running. Live in Kensington or Notting Hill to get close (expensive).
Epping Forest: out in the North East, miles of running but quiet and isolated.
If you're going to be working in the City or Docklands then the commuting times might favour the more central locations - but if you want to train in a strong women's running group then Richmond and Hampstead would be the choices.
A great resource for working out how long it takes to get from A to B in London is http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tfl/. Just put in the location of where you will end up working and where you live and it will give the commute time by your chosen method of transport.

Darling Lili is a conglomerate. In its World War I expanse, the Blake Edwards presentation has comedy, adventure melodrama, aerial dogfights, spectacular production numbers, nostalgia, Julie Andrews and Rock Hudson, lush trappings, lack of a decisive hand, and smash moments. These elements are juggled sometimes with eclat and a flair, on other occasions abruptly and none too successfully.
Andrews is a German spy whose mission is to ferret out war secrets. She latches onto a relationship with Hudson, in role of a dashing American air squadron commander, who knows all.
Andrews’ best moments are her singing sequences, in which she does full justice to five numbers cleffed by Johnny Mercer and Henry Mancini.
1970: Nomination: Best Costume Design, Original Song Score, Song (‘Whistling Away the Dark’)

“Less is more” The latest trend means more openness in your surrounding spaces.
Today the younger generation is smart & clueful. They aspire to do well in life, to enjoy, secure their future by investing in properties for themselves.
Concept of Minimalism: Today’s lifestyle is on a fast track and no one has the time to look after their houses and therefore this concept of minimalism has set up & is in vogue. It is a smart decision to have bare minimum things required wherein your basic needs are looked after; for example in the living room you would need sitting arrangement, dining table & chairs, centre table and crockery unit. One might think why do I need a designer for this; but the designer will help you enhance your spaces (however small or big) by means of forms, colours & textures and functionality etc. He/she will convert your house into a beautiful home taking into consideration your lifestyle. The designer will help you to make your surroundings more functional considering the basic aspects of life such as light, ventilation etc.
To have a good life: It is an individual’s choice as to what kind of environment they would like to live in; e.g. working couple would look at minimalistic contemporary house which would be maintenance free whereas a house wife would like to have more number of artefacts or decorative pieces which she can look after. The designer would be helpful in both the cases as for the modern household, he/she can advise you how to make it clutter free as well as get artwork in your minimalistic furniture pieces and provide you homely environment by soothing & subtle colour schemes. For the traditional household he/she will advise you to buy appropriate furniture, fabric, artwork etc. to suit your lifestyle.
Therefore, it is very essential to look for a designer who can take care of your needs first and help you to have a good living or working environment rather than a decorator whom you would find in every nook and corner, who are basically contracting agents.
