One grieving father has memorialized his son Joel’s short life by creating a narrative video game that retells his son’s battle with cancer. Ryan Green, 34, says that his son only lived for just five short years but had a huge impact on those around him.
Parents Ryan and Amy Green say that although Joel eventually died from the cancer that ravaged his body, they never want to stop talking about him. They wanted others to be able to experience Joel’s short life and hope that the video game will encourage others to continue talking about the people who changed their lives.
Today reports that a heartbreaking new narrative video game called That Dragon, Cancer will go on sale January 12, 2016. The video game was designed by Ryan Green to allow others to experience the “emotional intensity” of living with a dying child. The game is an immersive narrative video game that lasts about two hours but does not just focus on Joel’s death, but rather his life.
“An immersive narrative video game that retells Joel Green’s 4-year fight against cancer through about two hours of poetic, imaginative gameplay that explores faith, hope and love.”
It is noted that all of the characters in the video game are based on real-life people in Joel Green’s life, with the game taking place in a variety of settings from the family’s house to hospitals. Although the characters are faceless, they are filled with emotion and the dialogue that goes along with the game combines all the emotions that the family has felt over the years as they experienced joy, pain, and grief alongside their son Joel.
Ryan notes that he initially began the video game as a means to remember Joel. He says that his greatest fear was that he would forget Joel and never wanted that to happen. Therefore, he began using his video gaming skills to recreate Joel’s short life by saving it to a virtual world. The result was an inspiring, faith-filled video masterpiece that gives players the ability to be a part of the Green’s short time with Joel.
Amy, Joel’s mother, says that the video game allows others to “be a friend” with them during Joel’s battle with cancer. Throughout the video game, players will be given the opportunity to interact with Joel and his family. From pushing Joel on a swing to holding his hand or touching his face as he lays in the hospital bed, players can fully immerse themselves in the setting. Ryan says that the players are there as a friend, but that ultimately no matter what the player does, the ending will always be the same. Joel always dies.
— Ian Bogost (@ibogost) January 5, 2016
The family says that there is significance in releasing That Dragon, Cancer on January 12, 2016, as it would have been Joel’s seventh birthday. Although Joel cannot be present for the celebration of the game release, the family says they will be eating pancakes in his honor and encourage everyone else who orders That Dragon, Cancer to do the same.
“When we release the video game we made about Joel on January 12th, we’re going to eat pancakes. He would have liked that. We hope you’ll eat pancakes for dinner too. January 12th is Joel’s birthday.”
You can pre-order the game here. Although it is a video game, That Dragon, Cancer is also considered a living painting, a poem, and an interactive retelling of Ryan and Amy Green’s experience raising their late son Joel.
What do you think about Ryan Green’s memorial video game for his son? Do you think the video game market should feature more emotional, narrative games like That Dragon, Cancer?

Tandoori chicken bites are little spicy nuggets of Indian delight!
Total Cost: $7.48 recipe / $1.50 serving
Author: Beth - Budget Bytes
3large chicken breasts $6.37
1/2cupplain yogurt $0.27
1Tbsplemon juice $0.05
1inchfresh ginger $0.18
1/2tspcayenne pepper $0.03
1/2Tbspgaram masala $0.08
1 1/2Tbsppaprika, divided$0.23
Cut the chicken breasts into small chunks. I cut each breast into 3-4 strips lengthwise, and then each strip into 4-5 chunks to yield approximately 40 pieces. Place the chicken pieces in a large zip top bag.
Add to the rest of the ingredients to the bag (yogurt, minced garlic, grated ginger, lemon juice, salt, coriander, cumin, turmeric, cayenne, garam masala, and 1/2 Tbsp of the paprika). Close the bag tightly and smoosh it around to mix the ingredients. Place the bag in the refrigerator for 2 to 24 hours to marinate.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Cover a baking sheet with foil and spray with non-stick spray. Wipe the marinade from the chicken pieces and place them in a bowl. Sprinkle the last tablespoon of paprika and a pinch more of salt over the chicken pieces (add more cayenne if hot chicken pieces are desired). Toss to coat. The extra paprika here just helps the red color, you can skip it if desired. A little extra salt definitely helps, though.
Place the chicken pieces on the prepared baking sheet, spaced out so they do not touch. Bake for 15 minutes in the fully preheated oven. Take the sheet out, turn each piece of chicken over, and bake for an additional 15 minutes. Serve warm.
If you are sensitive to spicy foods, you can leave out the cayenne or start with 1/4 tsp.

sansha lyrica pointe shoes uk online – An original acrylic painting of ballet shoes on an 8 x 10 inch wrapped canvas that would make a great addition to any decor! Signed and dated on the back by artist Lori Storrs.Colors may vary due to differences in monitors, but you will receive the painting pictured, ready to hang.
Possokhov’s “Rite” began with promise. The women slid down the ramped platform like cats in heat, until they pulled their pastel-splashed shifts over their heads and vibrated like butterflies sansha lyrica pointe shoes uk online. But the trite and the bizarre weren’t far behind. Soon, the men got busy hauling the women in spread-eagle position like split sides of beef or losing themselves in the women’s captive crotches with pointless repetition. The appearance of a weird, hotheaded creature — a twinned, centaurlike being (wonderfully embodied by Garen Scribner and James Sofranko) —— would have been comical if its purpose weren’t so dark: to push the bacchanal toward sacrifice. It was a sacrifice that had none of the inevitability of ritual and all of the gratuitousness of a random act of violence..
This was no study of an ancient fertility rite where pounding the frozen earth through dance was designed to waken the juices of the soil, as the people of long-ago Russia were believed to do, with sacrifice of a virgin girl part of the tribal imperative. This was a post-feminist celebration of the martyring of the most vibrant female in a group, and made feminism seem more desperately necessary than ever in this era of One Billion Rising. Not only did no one riot in San Francisco Opera House on Tuesday, the audience response was almost catatonic sansha lyrica pointe shoes uk online.
Mark Morris’ tender homage to men generally, and choreographers Paul Taylor and Merce Cunningham in particular, offered a stunning antidote to the brutish depiction of desire Possokhov staged sansha lyrica pointe shoes uk online. Morris’ title “Beaux” means beautiful in French, is adopted as a word for boyfriends in English and reads like “boyz” for the phonetically inclined. Morris is after all of it and sets the work to the harpsichord music of Bohuslav Martinu. An all-male cast dressed in Isaac Mizrahi’s sassy pastel camouflage unitards against the same patterned backdrop evoked in this and a dozen other ways not only a long military history of male-male love, but Taylor’s homage to soldiers and closeted love in “Sunset” and Cunningham’s 1958 “Summerspace,” with its beautifully controlled bodies in spotted unitards against a speckled backdrop that artist Robert Rauschenberg famously designed..
Morris not only quotes both masters, from the men seated on the ground watching one another as they do in “Sunset” to the controlled body positions from “Summerspace,” he also captures the tender tone of both, bringing to same-sex partnering an unapologetic depth of love and companionship all his own and rarely, if ever, seen on the opera house stage. Dancer Vito Mazzeo’s impeccable line evoked both the elegance of Cunningham and the hunkiness Taylor still goes after sansha lyrica pointe shoes uk online. And the boyish yet manly movement of faunlike Jaime Garcia Castilla and others conjured up the delights of a boy at play..
In Program 4, Wheeldon did something similar for heterosexual pairings in “Within the Golden Hour,” a period of time in photography that refers to the hour at the beginning and end of the day sansha lyrica pointe shoes uk online. The entire cast, but especially leads Sarah van Patten, Luke Ingham, Maria Kochetkova, Joan Boada, Vanessa Zahorian and Damian Smith made human pairing symbolic of the complex, often beautiful mysteries buried in those transitional hours. Ashley Page’s “Guide to Strange Places” in Program 3, by contrast, had nothing inexplicable about it. Rather it rehashed a style of romantic pairing that uses the woman as a paint brush. Not much materializes on such a canvas..

A 999 call handler has admitted she may have offered false hope to Grenfell Tower residents who believed they could be rescued by helicopter.
Hashim Kedir, 44, his wife Nura Jemal, 35, daughter Firdaws Hashim, 12, and sons Yahya Hashim, 13, and Yaqub Hashim, six, were among the 72 people who died in last year’s June 14 fire.
Transcripts of emergency calls made from their flat on the high-rise’s 22nd floor were shown at a public inquiry into the blaze on Friday.
London Fire Brigade control room officer Christine Howson said: “There’s one there, okay, all right? The fire brigade are on their way now. They’re making their way.”
Ms Howson was asked at the inquiry if this might have offered “the hope or expectation that they would be rescued by helicopter”.
The officer was taken through several 999 calls she handled on the night of the fire and questioned about the advice she gave.
“Things that should’ve been happening, weren’t happening. We should’ve… these people should’ve been rescued and we weren’t able to get to them,” she said.
“The policies we had, which had always worked in the past, they weren’t working.”

How to Grow Your Own Herbs
April 13, 2018
The convenience of growing herbs at home saves money, time, and gives anyone who likes to cook the satisfaction of making food with their organically homegrown fresh herbs. Growing an herb garden at home, indoor or outdoor, does not take a lot of maintenance, making it a fun and useful hobby for those who love to spend time in the kitchen.
Common herbs to grow at home that are the most versatile in meals are; sage, basil, oregano, thyme, rosemary, parsley, chives, and cilantro. Depending on the herb, either get a four inch root bud or a half inch clipping from the plant to prepare for placement. After choosing your preferred herbs follow these steps for successful herb growth.
Find a good spot:
A location with a lot of natural light near a window allows herbs to receive their 6 needed hours of sun daily.
Pick a container or pot:
Herbs are versatile plants; you can pick a jar, cup, bowl, or pot to host the herbs as long as it has good drainage so the soil will not drown heavily with water, killing the herbs.
Get local soil from your backyard and place it into your desired pot without compacting the dirt too much to help regulate the water flow out of the pot (sand can be added to break up the thickness of the dirt). Once the dirt is situated and relatively loose, create a crater double the size of the root you are planting, and after placed, cover the root or clipping under an inch of soil.
Water the herbs until the water line reaches one inch in the specific container so the roots are able to slowly absorb the water. Depending on the container, constantly check the soil using a finger to avoid drying out the herb roots. If the soil is not retaining humidity; cover the container top in with clear plastic to keep the soil moist.
Keep the indoor temperature between 65 and 70 degrees fahrenheit to prevent the herbs from wilting or freezing.
You can optionally fertilize the herbs with basic plant food such as Miracle-Gro Indoor Plant Food every week to ensure healthy and consistent growth.
Even without a green thumb; growing herbs is an easy way to fill up free time, save money, and eat every meal with flavors freshly cut from one’s own kitchen.

After you’ve resolved the negative items on your credit report, work on getting positive information added. Just like late payments severely hurt your credit score, timely payments help your score. If you have some credit cards and loans being reported on time, good. Continue to keep those balances at a reasonable level and make your payments on time.
This company is bad and I mean BAD in the worst sense. They sent out a letter to one of the creditors I wasn't concerned about, but it ended up in my mail box because it was sent to the wrong address. Yes, my snail mail box. They had sent it as if I was the one who wrote the letter and as if I was only 6yrs old, seriously it was so bad I thought it must be from someone who had hacked my account. The letter was sent to my bank who I have a very good relationship with. I waited a few days and called credit repair and asked if this was from them, I was told it was. I then asked if they had their kid write the letter and was told that's just how they send out the letters because it confuses the creditor, what??? I told them there was only 2 creditors I wanted to rid from my reports but for some reason they decided what I wanted and was paying for was not what they wanted, who is paying the bill here? I am!! You do what I say to do and what you don't do is send letters to wrong addresses so they don't end up in my mail box! I wish there was a way to add an attachment here I'd show the pathetic letter they sent which is the very same they send out for everyone. 1 star is 10 too high for this or any other so called credit repair company. Don't waste money on something you can do yourself. Just look at the pathetic responses they give to the above complaints.
"I went and got a new car in Feb 2013 signed the contract and drove off with my new car. A few weeks later I get a call that the financing had fell through or that's what I was told so I returned the car after realizing it wasn't worth it with an interest rate at 22%. I decided to go ahead and start the process of having a house built but found out my credit score had been knocked down by 100 points so I called CreditRepair.com. I'm so happy with the outcome - I can't wait to see my results for the month of April."
Order your credit report here so you can start the credit repair process. Once you have your report in hand, we will go over it with you and start removing items from it. Your credit score isn’t just a number on a piece of paper – it’s like an identification code. If you have a poor score, it can feel like the identification number that prisoners get when they’re doing time. One look at the score and people know that you have made some mistakes, and could even hold those mistakes against you.
While we did find quite a few customer reviews that said their credit scores improved reliably over time using the Credit Repair service, it's hard to recommend a business that has an "F" grade at the BBB because they didn't take the time to prove that their advertised claims were legitimate. If those facts are accurate, it should be a simple process to report them and clear up the concern at the BBB. If that happens in the future, Credit Repair will probably move up in the rankings among the services we reviewed; until then, we suggest you look at some of the higher-rated companies for your credit history improvement plan.
Dispute automation and efficient credit repair letters are the primary tasks of most credit repair software created. Credit repair software allows the users to run a credit repair business from anywhere. Credit dispute automation, Credit repair, Credit dispute letter creation, and Credit rebuilding are difficult tasks to manage without automation. All of the above Credit Building and Credit Repair activities were previously managed manually before the innovation of Credit Repair software providers like TurboDispute. Now that credit repair software is available at an affordable price, anyone looking to run, manage and automate the credit repair process can finally efficiently handles the process.
"My credit had been bad for a while because of bad decisions. I just came to the point where I said this can be better. I heard your radio commercial and your customer service walked me through the whole process and explained and answered all my questions. I am very thank you for you helping me raise my scores to a respectful. It’s been such a journey. Thank you"
A dependable credit repair company, Credit-Aid claims its software can raise credit scores by up to 250 points, backing this promise with a 100% money-back guarantee. Customers get access to great features such as free credit reports, identity theft rescue tools, a financial diary, and other helpful tech. All this can be yours for a one-time payment.
Many credit repair leads fall flat when too much time is invested trying to acquire the client. Through the ability to digitally sign credit repair agreements, your company can keep a stronger hold on your potential client’s attention. Advanced setting management: TurboDispute software provides separate settings to control different aspects of your business. You have dashboards for Customer Management, Referral Management, Affiliate Management, Account Management and Dispute Letter Management as well as Software Customization.
Unfortunately, when your credit history is less than fantastic - because of making payments after the due date, having too many credit inquiries, or even having mistaken information associated with your identity - you'll have fewer options when you need to make a major purchase. You may even have to pay higher than average rates on your car insurance or your mortgage.
Who wouldn't love to get paid to shop, eat out, or go to the movies? That may sound too good to be true, but thousands of mystery shoppers across the US and Canada are doing just that: getting paid to visit restaurants, retail stores, and even theme parks in order to provide a customer's perspective on the cleanliness, service, and overall experience at the location.
Either way, you should always remove any errors or outdated information from your credit report — regardless of the actual effect on your score — as soon as you discover them. A clean credit report can give you peace of mind the next time you apply for a loan; you’ll know that an inaccurate credit score isn’t holding you back from qualifying for a better interest rate, saving you time and money in the long run.

PAL attendants seek favorable ruling-A A +A
Tuesday, December 21, 2010
FLIGHT attendants at Philippine Airlines (PAL) appealed to Labor Secretary Rosalinda Baldoz to rule in favor of the discrimination issues lodged against the flag carrier.
Andy Ortega, vice president of the Flight Attendants and Stewards’ Association of the Philippines (Fasap), said the labor department should end the implementation of unfair policies against women workers.
“Basing on Baldoz’s statement in the media, Fasap is hopeful that the Dole (Department of Labor and Employment) will finally rule on the three issues of the case before Christmas, the economic, pregnancy and maternity benefits and most especially the discriminatory retirement age. Fasap eagerly awaits Baldoz’s decision with optimism,” he told Sun.Star.
Baldoz has repeatedly said her office will resolve the labor dispute before Christmas.
Under the existing collective bargaining agreement (CBA), male and female flight attendants who were hired before November 1996 would be retired once they reach 60 and 55 years old, respectively.
Those hired from 1996 and beyond would be retired at age 45 for both males and females while those recruited after November 2000, will be retired by the age of 40 for both males and females.
Fasap president Roberto Anduiza, for his part, said that “majority” of their 1,600 members felt unsecure of their future.
“They fret that once they reach 40 years old, all their plans and ambitions for their family will be lost because of PAL's retirement policy. How will they secure their children’s future? How will they build their homes?” he said.
The CBA between PAL and Fasap expired in July 2007 with the latter accusing the management of acting on bad faith.
Baldoz entered the scene last October 6 after negotiations talks bogged down at the National Conciliation and Mediation Board (NCMB). The assumption order also forced the union to abandon its strike plan, which was supposed to be last month. (Virgil Lopez/Sunnex)

After saying that she had read through “files of complaints” that had allegedly been lodged over books that have mostly sat on library shelves for years without incident, the unqualified deputy director of the Anchorage Public Library (APL) Judy Eledge bemoaned the lack of public participation in the library’s collections process, saying that parents should be permitted to toil with long standing practices of a system designed to be free from improper influence.
“That’s just my opinion,” said Eledge, who resigned from her role as director of the APL last year to avoid Assembly confirmation, ostensibly because she and the Bronson Administration were at least partly concerned about her social media history.
In a clip taken from December’s meeting of the Library Advisory Board where a presentation was given in the hope of segregating LGBT themed books that had been compared to sexy and steamy romance novels and which prompted the resignation of a member of the Youth Advisory Commission, Eledge said that having three qualified librarians look at complaints filed with the library was “unfair.”
Eledge, who APL employees say has been wreaking havoc in the library, opined at the LAB meeting that parents should be brought in to help qualified librarians (who have gone to college and obtained their Master of Library Science degrees) because those individuals tasked with overseeing the library’s collection “tend to think alike.” Eledge’s comments appear to indicate that she is unwilling to trust librarians and the library’s processes.
“I’m going to tell you there’s going to be some people on staff that aren’t going to be open minded to listen — know that for a fact,” Eledge said, as she attempted to convey to LAB’s members that she was on board with Teen Advisory Board Member Denali Tshibaka’s proposed solution of segregating LGBTQ books she deemed inappropriate for certain sections of the library — books that have been properly categorized in line with categorization standards.
What the unqualified deputy director of the APL likely fails to understand is that the public already has the ability to provide input on the library’s collection process through APL’s website where they can recommend titles for the library to purchase. The public also has input through the request for reconsideration process and the library’s circulation numbers indicate whether the library’s collection process, which is based on a selection criteria, is on the right track.
What Eledge likely wants is to further impede, disrupt and upend a library process she doesn’t understand by bringing in biased and unqualified right-wing parents who want to cleanse the public library of books that offend their white cis sensibilities. It’s a majority rules mentality that has no place in the public library system.
Oh, and there’s audio. There always is.

- Going into the recent UK tour, there were plans for Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards to win the TNA Tag Team Titles but there were arguments made that it may be too soon for them to win gold.
It’s worth noting that for TNA’s upcoming pay-per-view taping in Japan with Wrestle-1, where the titles will be defended, the only two tag teams advertised are Edwards & Richards and Kazarian & Daniels.

Putu mayang, as it is called in Central Java, is called Petulo in East Java. It is one of Javanese traditional desserts. Made of steamed rice flour mixed with hot water and shaped like teenie tiny noodle. What makes it special is the sweet sauce made of coconut milk with brown sugar/gula jawa/gula melaka.
So the plain taste yet enchanting shape of putu mayang combined with the sweet sauce, they're just perfect for my cup of tea pairing.
It takes an hour to steam the glutionous flour, and after the dough is shaped, it will take around 20 mins to get them done. But I have to go several batches because the steaming pan couldn't fit them all in once. I don't really like that part though, so time consuming and full of hassle.
I remember one time when I made putu mayang late at night while watching the-oh-so-fine Wentworth Miller and his con buddies escaping from jail in Prison Break series. I guess I must thank him for making that particular late-at-night-putu mayang-making- bearable.
Now I dont know who or which is yummier, Wentworth or my putu mayang :)).
But one thing for sure, the next episode of Prison Break, I'd rather sitting in the couch with hubby,eating brownie (or two) with a cup of coffee.
Don't be discouraged with my writing though. If you are an Indonesian dessert lover, you should try this one. The outcome worth all the hassle.
Putu Mayang aka Petulo
What you need:
For putu mayang:
250 gr rice flour
550 ml boiling water
1-2 tsp salt
red and green food dyes
For the coconut milk sauce:
500 ml coconut milk from 1 coconut
200 gr brown sugar, finely sliced
1/4 tsp salt
2 pandan leaves
Line basket for steaming with a clean napkin, put in the dry rice flour, steam about 1 hour.
Put the rice flour in a bowl. Pour boiling water on the rice flour, add salt and stir well.
Allow to cool, then knead to a fine texture. Divide the dough into 3 parts to be dyed red, green, and one third to remain white.
Put the dough in putu mayang mould and press into the desired form. Steam about 25 mins till done. Serve with coconut milk sauce.
Coconut milk sauce:
Place all ingredients in a saucepan and bring to boil, stirring constantly.

With the active fire sale in full affect, the Padres’ are still looking to dump payroll and to move current closer Joaquin Benoit. It is being reported by Fox Sports Ken Rosenthal that the Los Angeles Dodgers are looking to acquire the 37-year old reliever to help strengthen the bullpen.
Dodgers Eyeing Joaquin Benoit http://t.co/uSzn6LK9bd
— Ken Rosenthal (@Ken_Rosenthal) July 30, 2014
The Padres signed the right-hander to a 2-year $15.5 million deal this past off season to strengthen the set up role for former closer Huston Street. When Street was traded earlier this month to the Los Angeles Angels, Benoit assumed the role and has recorded two saves in that time.
Benoit continues to shine in the bullpen posting a 4-2 record with 1.88 ERA in 42 games this season. He has been one of the premier set-up men in the game over the last several seasons and was also successful as the Detroit Tigers closer last season.
The Dodger are looking to strengthen their bullpen in a run to the postseason. Former Giants closer Brian Wilson has struggled this season coming back from arm surgery and has been shaky as the eighth inning man. By adding Benoit, it will provide the Dodgers with a very strong back end of the bullpen.
With both Street and Chase Headley already dealt, Benoit becomes one the marquee targets for teams making a run in the postseason and would demand a top prospect. As Rosenthal points out, the Padres reluctance to trade within the division makes the deal questionable.

Cardano ($ADA) has surpassed Ethereum (ETH) in transaction volume ahead of the launch of a highly-anticipated decentralized exchange (DEX) on Cardano network called SundaeSwap.
Messari data show that Cardano’s daily transaction volume was above the $7 billion level, surpassing the daily transactions volume of that of the Ethereum blockchain seen around $5.4 billion.
Although the total combination of the two networks is above $12 billion, both remain below Bitcoin’s $16.8 billion.
The surge in Cardano’s transaction volumes comes after SundawSwap, a scalable DEX and automated liquidity provision protocol revealed it was preparing to launch on mainnet on January 20. The platform is backed by cFund, Alameda Research, and Double Peak Group.
The DEX will launch with an Initial Stake Offering (ISO), which will allow users to delegate their ADA tokens to staking pools.
Aside from Cardano's transition volume explosion, the public blockchain also saw a significant jump in its price rise, with ADA bouncing by around 16% in the last 24-hour period.
Also, note that SundaeSwap isn’t Cardano’s first decentralized application (DApp). The blockchain's first DeFi platform, MuesliSwap, launched an offering and saw its total value locked (TVL) explode to over $1 million a few days after launch. It now has nearly $4 million in TVL.
MuesliSwap is a decentralized exchange with launchpad functionalities that has also been launched on top of the Bitcoin Cash blockchain.
The platform is not available on either Ethereum or the Binance Smart Chain, two of the largest DeFi platforms by total value locked.

BUENOS AIRES (Sputnik) – Argentinian President Alberto Fernandez on Thursday called on Latin American countries to support dialogue between Venezuelan authorities and the opposition.
“We call on countries in Latin America and the Caribbean to support dialogue,” Fernandez tweeted, adding that “the resumption of dialogue is renewed hope that Venezuelans can find a way out of the crisis.”
Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro said on Thursday that Caracas was ready to relaunch dialogue with the opposition with the mediation of Norway and Mexico.
“I extend my hand for dialogue, as always, to all the Venezuelan opposition. My thanks to Norway and the Mexican government for their willingness to establish peace and dialogue. This is the way, the democratic way” , said the president on Twitter.
The Norwegian Embassy in Mexico said earlier in the day that Mexico City would host a new round of talks between the Venezuelan government and the opposition on Saturday after a year-long hiatus. The negotiations will lead to the signing of “a partial agreement on social issues”, according to the embassy’s Twitter.
The government and the opposition United Platform broke off talks in October last year after the African nation of Cabo Verde extradited Maduro negotiator Alex Saab to the United States.
Before the break, the negotiators had signed a memorandum of understanding which included the timetable for the elections. The opposition is seeking a new vote in 2024 after the 2018 election gave President Maduro a second term, sparking accusations of fraud from the United States and its allies.

text: This paper reports on a study of school farms in Tasmania. It is well understood that high quality agricultural education is crucial the future development of Tasmanian society and the economy. School farms represent a potential resource for both high quality agricultural education programming as well as an experiential “laboratory” available for various types of curricular and cross curricular work with students. Because they are so well established as authentic community-school partnerships that are, for the most part located in rural communities where there is considerable concern about aspirations, educational achievement, and retention (Abbott-Chapman, 2001; Abbott-Chapman and Kilpatrick, 2001; Cranston et al, 2014), we argue that Tasmania’s school farms continue to have an important role to play in a modern education system.At present a number of farm schools are operating but what they are actually doing with and on their farm properties is not well understood. Most of these farms have a long history and were built and developed in a very different social, economic and educational context. Those that have survived have done so with the support of community volunteers and genuine engagement on the part of rural citizens. In addition to strong multi-generational community support for school farms, a core group of committed teachers work in conjunction with community volunteers to deliver different levels of agricultural programming keep many of these farms alive.Today the position of school farms around the state is precarious and most are provided with little government financial or curriculum support. Indeed, a 2013 government audit of school farms recommended that they all be closed (Gallasch, 2013) which resulted in a public outcry in rural communities that caused government to shelve the audit and leave the school farms intact. This has not however increased the profile of school farms and/or agricultural education at the level of state education policy.The purpose of this study is to map the landscape of Tasmania’s school farms and their contemporary relevance. The research asks three questions: 1) where are Tasmania’s currently existing school farms/farm schools and what kind of agriculturally-related programming do they employ?; 2) what are the key successes and challenges faced by Tasmanian farm schools today?; and 3) how are Tasmania’s school farms integrating contemporary curriculum to deliver their programming? Of the more than 30 existing school farms in the state we have identified 20 that are currently operational at some level and which offer a program. This paper reports on semi-structured interviews with school farm educators and site visits to each of the 20 school farms.

The Crow of Connemara
DAW, Mar 3 2015, $25.95
Encouraged by his maternal Aunt Patty, third generation American Colin Doyle wanted to explore the Old Country’s music, but his father adamantly told him to never go to Ireland. When his father suffers a heart attack that leaves him in the Cardiac ICU, Colin returns to Chicago from the university to see him, his mom, two older siblings and his aunt. Upon his dad’s death and ignoring his father’s wishes, Colin travels to Ireland to seek the woman who has haunted his dreams.
Knowing the Old Ones are dying, Maeve Gallagher the Oileánach seeks the right bard to preserve their heritage. She believes he resides across the Atlantic, but her reaching out to him when he sleeps has not gotten him to come to her and Eire until now. When Maeve and Colin meet in person for the first time, she knows he is the chosen one and he realizes she has been the star of many of his dreams. As they travel together to Oileánach Island, evil stirs wanting to escape their imprisonment underneath the land.
The Crow of Connemara is a fabulous Celtic fantasy in which the ancient and modern worlds overlap through the lead couple. Once the hero arrives in the Old Country, this novel turns into a wonderfully complex tale. Upon stepping onto Oileánach alongside astonished Colin, readers will marvel at the vividness of Leigh’s realm as much as the gripping plot.

I agree. Hungry Holidays published by the All Party Parliamentary Group on Hunger is a disturbing, even distressing read ‒ the reasons behind holiday hunger, the links with child poverty and the impact on children’s lives…But there are also strong grounds for hope and encouragement, especially if we can all do our bit to raise awareness and make a practical response.
Back to the alarming part: the scale of the problem has been hidden – until now. Even to those of us linked into churches and Foodbanks (Spurgeons hosts some of these in our children’s centres) who are acutely aware of life getting harder for many families that we work with.
We’ve seen the stats for child poverty steadily rising, along with basic living costs like housing, fuel and food. We know that more low income families are struggling, at the same time that less help is available and some of that definitely peaks in school holidays. But sometimes it takes someone like Frank Field MP (with a bit of help!) to pull the evidence together, throw down the gauntlet to government and urge something to be done.
Three million or 1 in 4 children in the UK are affected. That’s a preposterous ratio in the fifth richest country in the world. However you look at it and whoever you blame, it’s really bad news for children ‒ for those who have free school meals and for those in low wage families, where extra costs of childcare and food during school holidays can mean not enough left to put proper meals on the table.
Now for the inspiring bit! The people doing something about it. They’re described in the report as ‘a growing number of compassionate, diligent, and gutsy church volunteers, community groups, local authorities, and businesses’.
I remember speaking to the brilliant charity Make Lunch soon after it started in 2011 and ever since have promoted their work with churches to provide meals and activities in school holidays. They contributed to Hungry Holidays report. Tackling another part of the problem is REfUSE which started up a couple of years ago in Durham, using food destined for landfill to make healthy, delicious meals, as well as giving fantastic volunteering opportunities to learn new skills and help employability.
One national, one local, both motivated by Christian faith, determined to do something practical as a response to poverty and inequality which would bring people together in a positive way. Working with churches, schools and communities to prevent hunger and food waste.
We’re connected to lots of churches and small charities who regularly provide holiday clubs, food and hospitality as a routine part of what they do. They’re just one part of the voluntary and faith sector all doing their bit in local areas, as well as businesses and individuals contributing too.
But if the main recommendation of the report is adopted, to use just 1/10th of money raised from the sugary drinks levy as a grant for each local authority to convene schools, churches, community groups and businesses – with the voluntary sector taking the lead – imagine what might be possible!
Such a commitment to tackle holiday hunger would bring ‘an improvement in the immediate quality of life, as well as the life chances, of large numbers of children growing up in families that are struggling to keep their heads above water’. And that’s exactly what Spurgeons wants for children and families struggling to cope ‒ a better present and more hopeful future.

New Cookbook from Former ‘Miss Lebanon’ Explores Modern Middle Eastern Cooking
The Middle East cradles an ancient cuisine—one of the oldest in the world. Despite its pedigree, conflict in the region has largely kept it under wraps to a wider audience. Hummus, tabbouleh, and stuffed vine leaves now receive global recognition, but there still exists this vast and distinct culinary heritage that remains unexplored: wholesome stews, exotic casseroles and a range of home cooking which revolves around humble, yet delicious vegetables and grains. It is these that routinely welcome home hungry school children and soothe the appetites of tired workers. They too must be shared with the world.
For the past five years, Lebanese-American Bethany Kehdy has sought to demystify Middle Eastern food through her blog DirtyKitchenSecrets.com and her Taste of Lebanon tours. In her debut book, Pomegranates & Pine Nuts, she provides 100+ new recipes that will introduce you to the wonders of the Middle East and change any thought you might have had that this hearty cuisine is complicated or laborious.
|The Gaza Kitchen: A Palestinian Culinary Journey
Lowest new price: $26.10
Lowest used price: $56.12
List price: $29.00
Author: Laila El-Haddad
Brand: Brand: Just World Books
The Gaza Kitchen is a richly illustrated cookbook that explores the distinctive cuisine and food heritage of the area known prior to 1948 as the Gaza District—and that of the many refugees from elsewhere in Palestine who came to Gaza in 1948 and have been forced to stay there ever since. In summer 2010, authors Laila El-Haddad and Maggie Schmitt traveled the length and breadth of the Gaza Strip to collect the recipes presented in the book. They were also able to build on the extensive knowledge that Laila, herself a Palestinian from Gaza, had gained from family and friends throughout the years.
- Read Advance Praise for The Gaza Kitchen from celebrated chefs and writers
The 130 recipes presented in this book have all been thoroughly kitchen-tested. Amounts are presented using U.S.-style measures, and the authors suggest alternative ingredients and recipe adaptations for cooks working in the United States or other countries where some of the ingredients may not be easy to find. Numerous illustrations help readers understand how to perform the listed techniques—and what the finished product should look like!
But The Gaza Kitchen is not only a cookbook. A lot of other things happen in the kitchen as well as cooking: conversations, the re-telling of family histories, and the daily drama of surviving and creating spaces for pleasure in an embattled place. In this book, women and men from throughout Gaza tell their stories as they relate to cooking, farming, and the food economy: personal stories, family stories, and descriptions of the broader social and economic system in which they live.
When Laila and Maggie launched this project in 2009, they wrote:
Why do we want to talk about food and cooking?
Because food is the essence of the everyday. Beyond all the discourses, the positions and the polemics, there is the kitchen. And even in Gaza, that most tortured little strip of land, hundreds of thousands of women every day find ways to sustain their families and friends in body and spirit. They make the kitchen a stronghold against despair, and there craft necessity into pleasure and dignity.
Gaza has a rich food tradition and a unique cuisine combining Levantine and Egyptian elements. The history of its population can be traced through its recipes, which reflect the influence of exile from all over Palestine as well as a changing society and customs. A cookbook which brings together these recipes serves as testimony to this heritage and history.
What is more, today's kitchens can tell us much about the difficult and paradoxical realities of Gaza after three years of unrelenting siege: which products are available and where they are coming from (tunnels, local agriculture, humanitarian relief), how cooks manage with extreme shortages of gas and electricity, how families reorganize to compensate for destroyed homes and near-universal joblessness. To spend a day with a Gazan woman doing the shopping and cooking is to understand the Palestinian reality from an entirely different – more material, more intimate – perspective. It is to appreciate the strength and endurance which allows these women every day to confront a hopeless situation and to create within it small spaces of grace, beauty and generosity.
Just World Books is honored to have been able to work with Maggie and Laila in the preparation of this unique contribution to the study of the world's food heritage.

Author: Ana Sortun
On a trip to Turkey as a young woman, chef Ana Sortun fell in love with the food and learned the traditions of Turkish cooking from local women. Inspired beyond measure, Sortun opened her own restaurant in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the award-winning Oleana, where she creates her own interpretations of dishes incorporating the incredible array of delicious spices and herbs used in eastern regions of the Mediterranean.
In this gorgeously photographed book, Sortun shows readers how to use this philosophy of spice to create wonderful dishes in their own homes. She reveals how the artful use of spices and herbs rather than fat and cream is key to the full, rich flavors of Mediterranean cuisine -- and the way it leaves you feeling satisfied afterward. The book is organized by spice, detailing the ways certain spices complement one another and how they flavor other foods and creating in home cooks a kind of sense-memory that allows for a more intuitive use of spice in their own dishes. The more than one hundred tantalizing spice categories and recipes include:
- Beef Shish Kabobs with Sumac Onions and Parsley Butter
- Chickpea and Potato Terrine Stuffed with Pine Nuts, Spinach, Onion, and Tahini
- Crispy Lemon Chicken with Za’atar
- Golden Gazpacho with Condiments
- Fried Haloumi Cheese with Pear and Spiced Dates

|Aromas of Aleppo: The Legendary Cuisine of Syrian Jews
Lowest new price: $28.38
Lowest used price: $24.12
List price: $49.99
Author: Poopa Dweck
Brand: Harper Collins
When the Aleppian Jewish community migrated from the ancient city of Aleppo in historic Syria and settled in New York and Latin American cities in the early 20th century, it brought its rich cuisine and vibrant culture. Most Syrian recipes and traditions, however, were not written down and existed only in the minds of older generations. Poopa Dweck, a first generation Syrian–Jewish American, has devoted much of her life to preserving and celebrating her community's centuries–old legacy.
Dweck relates the history and culture of her community through its extraordinary cuisine, offering more than 180 exciting ethnic recipes with tantalizing photos and describing the unique customs that the Aleppian Jewish community observes during holidays and lifecycle events. Among the irresistible recipes are:
•Bazargan–Tangy Tamarind Bulgur Salad
•Shurbat Addes–Hearty Red Lentil Soup with Garlic and Coriander
•Kibbeh–Stuffed Syrian Meatballs with Ground Rice
•Samak b'Batata–Baked Middle Eastern Whole Fish with Potatoes
•Sambousak–Buttery Cheese–Filled Sesame Pastries
•Eras bi'Ajweh–Date–Filled Crescents
•Chai Na'na–Refreshing Mint Tea
Like mainstream Middle Eastern cuisines, Aleppian Jewish dishes are alive with flavor and healthful ingredients–featuring whole grains, vegetables, legumes, and olive oil–but with their own distinct cultural influences. In Aromas of Aleppo, cooks will discover the best of Poopa Dweck's recipes, which gracefully combine Mediterranean and Levantine influences, and range from small delights (or maza) to daily meals and regal holiday feasts–such as the twelve–course Passover seder.

Author: Claudia Roden
In the 1960s Claudia Roden introduced Americans to a new world of tastes in her classic A Book of Middle Eastern Food. Now, in her enchanting new book, Arabesque, she revisits the three countries with the most exciting cuisines today—Morocco, Turkey, and Lebanon. Interweaving history, stories, and her own observations, she gives us 150 of the most delectable recipes: some of them new discoveries, some reworkings of classic dishes—all of them made even more accessible and delicious for today’s home cook.
From Morocco, the most exquisite and refined cuisine of North Africa: couscous dishes; multilayered pies; delicately flavored tagines; ways of marrying meat, poultry, or fish with fruit to create extraordinary combinations of spicy, savory, and sweet.
From Turkey, a highly sophisticated cuisine that dates back to the Ottoman Empire yet reflects many new influences today: a delicious array of kebabs, fillo pies, eggplant dishes in many guises, bulgur and chickpea salads, stuffed grape leaves and peppers, and sweet puddings.
From Lebanon, a cuisine of great diversity: a wide variety of mezze (those tempting appetizers that can make a meal all on their own); dishes featuring sun-drenched Middle Eastern vegetables and dried legumes; and national specialties such as kibbeh, meatballs with pine nuts, and lamb shanks with yogurt.
Claudia Roden knows this part of the world so intimately that we delight in being in such good hands as she translates the subtle play of flavors and simple cooking techniques to our own home kitchens.

When we enter into marriage, we often have hopes and dreams of a better life for ourselves and our families. This is wonderful and noble, but it doesn’t mean that our actions have to match these lofty ideals. When we allow ourselves to fall into the ways of the world instead of working to change it, we can become mired in debt and feel unworthy.
Success in marriage comes through establishing and developing a state of excellent understanding, trust, with a dash of tolerance and cooperation. What people fail to understand is that marriage means merging two personalities who become even richer in new ideas and new viewpoints because they are enabled to see things through not only their own but also their loved one’s eyes.
When cooperation, understanding, tolerance is lacking or non-existent, controversy is bound to occur.
Stubbornness and false pride are two terrific traits that undermine the possibilities of a happy marriage. People should not marry unless they realize the responsibilities of married life and that marriage is a sacred undertaking.
People must understand that euphoria in wedlock is only brought about through unselfish actions of giving and take. Marriage is a way to derive the most full-bodied and most complete expression in life and joy.
For those of you who are married and have minor problems to overcome, I earnestly prompt you to analyze yourself and your thoughts. If necessary, adapt your thinking and living to conform to the rules for happiness.
How to avoid the little irritating traits we may be inclined to show at times, but which are destructive to euphoria, peace, and harmony, especially with the home circle. Heed its message in haste.
They say the world is round— and yet I often think it square,
So many little hurts we get, from corners, hare and there.
But there’s one truth in life I’ve found while journeying east and West,
The only folks we really wound, are those we love the best.
We flatter those we scarcely know. We please the fleeting guest,
But deal full many a thoughtless blow, to those we love the best.
Marriage obtains excellence as each party finds out the value of developing the power to relieve, sympathize, adoringly counsel, comfort, and patiently sustain through the many problems along the way of life.
Another man once said, “Being married is just saying, what do you want for dinner back and forth until one of you is dead.”
Many problems in marriage can be solved quickly if husband and wife communicate and learn to work together openly, respectfully, and courteously like two people in love should.
Avoid throwing emotional tantrums, yelling, and screaming.
Do not emotionalize every discussion.
Learn to disagree without being disrespectful.
Learn when to stop the argument before it gets into a verbal war.
Learn when to walk away or change the subject.
When indisputable facts are presented, learn to say, “you are right,” I was wrong.”
Learn to argue factually, allowing your spouse to express himself or herself fully without fear of judgment or reprimand.
Avoid name-calling or saying words that you will regret saying.
In marriage, usually, whenever one spouse wins, marriage loses.”

How do you change the shape of the flag for a multileader note (balloon)? At the moment I have a square, I want a circle.
Do you mean this:
If it's a balloon, it's changed here:
I appreciate the answers but I am using Solidworks Electrical 2D. Its different.
I can change the balloon to a circle, but its too big and the text is too small. I am looking for the balloon block to edit it. I found it in "Tools|Leader\ Styles\ Properties\Block\Source\Circle."
The blockname is _TagCircle.
If I can find that block, or create a new user block with my required text and graphic size I am good and I think I am almost here.
OK, I was able to it. I couldn't find the block _TagCircle but I was able to create a custom _MYCOTagCIrcle. I still couldn't find it, but I inserted it into my drawing. Then when I edited the "Leader Styles" I could select "User Block" and the block was listed in the recent blocks pull-down list.
Hopefully it will be available in all my projects.

The Gladstone Hotel x Tommy Smythe
The Gladstone Hotel welcomes a fresh new room concept, designed by renowned Canadian designer, Tommy Smythe. Smythe is recognized for his regular appearances on Canadian design shows on the HGTV Network. His name is attached to favourites such as Design Inc., Sarah’s House, Sarah 101 and Home to Win.
Now Tommy brings his coveted style to popular Toronto haunt, The Gladstone Hotel. Located on the border of trendy neighbourhoods, Queen West and Parkdale, the historic hotel is the perfect home to Tommy Smythe’s creativity. The newly opened concept room, Room 303: Lucky Stryke, has high-ceilings, bright white walls, a plush king size bed and art work designed by Smythe himself, inspired by vintage matchbooks. These neon coloured prints bring the modern and cozy room to life.
The concept is an ode to Toronto’s LGBT bar culture where matchbooks with limited information printed on them once acted as maps to secret locations around the city that welcomed members of the LGBT community.
Room 303: Lucky Stryke is part of an ongoing trend of celebrity designers creating concept rooms for hotels. Another example is Bisha Hotel Toronto’s Lenny floor – a whole floor of hotel rooms designed by famous rock star Lenny Kravitz and his design studio, Kravitz Design.
Features of the 215 sq. ft. Room 303: Lucky Stryke includes a three-piece bathroom with hairdryer, hypo-allergenic duvet, and pillows with 300 thread count sheets, all-natural Canadian bath products, Samsung Galaxy Tablet with digital concierge system, flat screen television and more.

As inflation continues to rise, more consumers have begun to notice that the product size of their purchases is shrinking. This phenomenon, dubbed "shrinkflation" is worrying Americans and even driving them to change their purchasing habits.
A new survey from Morning Consult showed that 54% of Americans have seen, read or heard something about shrinkflation, and 64% are worried about it. In fact, only 25% said they haven’t noticed shrinkflation in any grocery categories.
Snacks are the biggest example of shrinkflation as 55% of Americans noticed these foods are decreasing in size or quantities as prices remain the same or even increase. Other items Americans have grown concerned about include pantry items, frozen foods, meat and bread and other pastries.
If you are struggling with rising costs, paying down debt using a personal loan can help you improve your monthly cashflow by lowering your interest rate. Visit Credible to find your personalized interest rate without affecting your credit score.
Americans rebel against shrinkflation
Although prices are rising and portion sizes are going down, Americans are fighting back against shrinkflation by changing their spending habits. About 48% of Americans said they bought a different brand when confronted with shrinkflation, and 49% said they chose a generic product instead, according to Morning Consult’s survey.
Americans in lower and middle-income ranges were more likely to choose this option, at 52% and 48%, respectively. Comparatively, just 41% of high-income households said they opted for generic products. After noticing shrinkflation, about 30% of Americans said they stopped purchasing from specific brands.
In the fight against shrinkflation, Americans took several actions, including:
- Purchased a different brand
- Bought a generic product
- Bought products in bulk
- Stopped purchasing from specific brands
- Researched alternatives
- Returned a product
If you are struggling with rising costs, a personal loan could help you pay down debt at a reduced interest rate and free your monthly budget. Visit Credible to compare multiple lenders at once and choose the one with the best interest rate for you.
Inflation surges, could be slowing
The Consumer Price Index (CPI), a measure of inflation, increased by 8.5% annually in July, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). This was down slightly from 9.1% in June, but remains near its 40-year high.
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell addressed the current inflation challenges at the latest Jackson Hole conference last week, saying the central bank's actions to bring down the rate of inflation could create a heavy burden for American families.
"Inflation is running well above 2%, and high inflation has continued to spread through the economy," Powell said at the conference. "While the lower inflation readings for July are welcome, a single month's improvement falls far short of what the committee will need to see before we are confident that inflation is moving down."
If you are struggling amid high levels of inflation, consider using a personal loan to help consolidate debt payments. Contact Credible to speak to a loan expert and get all of your questions answered.
