Police have launched a search for a thief who snatched a tiny pug puppy.
The eight-week-old female pug-Pekingese puppy was stolen from business premises in Wisbech in Cambridgeshire at around 12.20pm on Tuesday.
Officers say they are looking for a suspect described as a white female, aged between 20 and 30, with brown hair.
She was wearing blue jeans, a black vest top and a baseball cap, and is believed to have left the scene in a silver Peugeot.
Anyone who witnessed the incident or has any information should contact PC Felicity Stamp at Kings Lynn Police Station on 101, quoting crime reference 36/69365/22, or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

At the time of that dinner party, the Draganis were living in a large, old house in the northern part of Chestnut Hill that required constant upgrades and renovations, and the family was looking for a home that was less expensive to maintain - their three children planned to attend private school.
The 2,500-square-foot house offered that, as well as a place in architectural history.
On the former estate of 19th-century developer Henry Houston, the house was part of a nine-year Stonerov project that included the 104-unit Cherokee Village development, a walkable community adjacent to the Wissahickon woods, and a few private homes. Besides its notable architect and developer, the house had been owned for 10 years in the 1970s by Ian McHarg, a famous landscape designer.
But the house still needed work, and the project was embraced by the whole family.
The yard had to be replanted, and the couple's sons, now 18 and 20, planted a beech tree and removed the overgrown stuff, Concetta Dragani said.
On the interior, the couple wanted to restore the original Stonerov design - covered with layers of previous owners' additions - and reclaim it as a "machine for living," a Le Corbusier phrase that compares the function of a home to something like a car.
The best part of the house, according to Alfred Dragani, is that it backs onto the woods. After removing a cover on the small window in the hall, they discovered additional panes of glass and a "wonderful" cast glass window that allows light in but preserves privacy.
A wall that divided the kitchen and made it dark was removed. Oak floors had to be restored and a steel rod that holds the window overhangs had to be inspected and repaired.
McHarg, the landscape designer, had installed an elaborate garden irrigation system, and Alfred Dragani tried to recreate some of that, augmenting it with a new drainage system.
Behind the garden, Dragani and his sons built a wall out of Wissahickon schist stones they collected on the property.
A nonfunctional swimming pool was removed next to the house, and a garage with a green roof replaced it; the grassy roof is accessible from their daughter's room.
Now the butterfly design of the house - two-story glassy pavilions with a utility room in the center core - is obvious to visitors.
Inside, the "adult pavilion" holds a master-bedroom suite and Alfred Dragani's office. The living room area is two stories high and a dramatic view of the first floor can be seen from a balcony on the second.
The other wing holds a second-floor bedroom for their two sons (the older, now in college, only comes home on holidays) and one for their daughter, now 13. The dining area is on the first floor.
"The house is not a museum," Concetta Dragani said. "We wanted the house to be a home for our family and the design helped us live as we wish. It is now a place where our friends and our children's friends love to come."
As anticipated, the house is more economical than their former home. The cross ventilation and the window overhangs eliminate the need for a lot of heating and air-conditioning.
"The best part of this house is that we spend a lot of time here in our house next to the woods," Alfred Dragani said. "We want to be here."
Tasha Stonerov Churchill, the daughter of Oskar Stonerov, now in her 80s and living in Chester County, visited the house on a tour last year. She was impressed with the project and the attentiveness with which the Draganis restored the house.
"I think he really cared about Daddy's design," she said.

Alcoa, Phinergy developing aluminum-air EV battery [VIDEO]
Revolutionary battery can extend the range of an electric vehicle by a claimed 1,600 kilometres
MONTREAL—Alcoa Inc. and Israeli firm Phinergy are working together to commercialize an aluminum-air battery they claim can extend the range of an electric vehicle by about 1,600 kilometres.
According to Alcoa and the electric vehicle battery maker, they are collaborating on new materials, processes and components to commercialize the revolutionary battery.
“Automakers want technologies that enable zero-emission electric cars to travel distances that compete with gasoline-powered cars,” Alcoa Canada president Martin Briere said in a statement. “The aluminum-air battery has the potential to meet that challenge using fully recyclable material with no CO2 emissions.”
The announcement was made in Montreal where they debuted a zero-emissions electric deomonstration car powered by the aluminum-air battery at the Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve ahead of the Canadian Grand Prix.
The aluminum-air battery uses air and water to unlock energy stored in aluminum, and, when used to supplement a lithium-ion battery, can extend vehicle range by approximately 1,600 kilometres.
An all-electric Tesla Model S has an estimated range of 425 kilometres.
The companies hope the aluminum-air technology will put electric vehicles on par with their gas-powered counterparts in travel distances, purchase prices and overall life-cycle costs.
“Electric vehicle adoption has been slowed by the limited range of regular batteries, causing what is commonly known as ‘range anxiety,'” Phinergy chief executive Aviv Tzidon said.
“With Phinergy’s technology and Alcoa’s industrial leadership across both the aluminum value chain and the automotive market, we see an exciting opportunity to help move electric vehicles into the mainstream.”
According to Phinergy, the aluminum-air battery technology can also be applied to stationary applications like generators, and defence applications like mobile housing and unmanned vehicles.
It can also be used by first responders because of its infinite shelf life and high energy density.
Alcoa’s Briere said the company’s plant in Baie-Comeau, Que., is “well positioned” to supply the aluminum for use in the battery.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
I am already spayed, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and not good with cats.
Louise was found running the streets in Houston, Texas on a hot summer day in June. She was on the lam with her partner in crime, Thelma. They were both collarless, without chips, covered in flees and missing large amounts of hair, suffering from skin conditions, lesions and blisters, dehydrated, frail and most of all…scared! When I was finally able to persuade them to get into my car by throwing Vienna sausages inside, they immediately collapsed on the backseat from exhaustion. I immediately took them to my vet to deal with their pressing health issues.
After 5 months, Louise and Thelma are in excellent health, spayed and up to date on their vaccinations. They have even been sent out to train with one of Houston’s preeminent dog trainers, Matt Bryant A.K.A. “The Texas Dogfather”. Both of them are doing exceptionally well. Louise is now leash trained, knows many commands and is much more confident and secure. Louise is full of life and wants to please. She absolutely loves to run and play…especially with other dogs! She loves being petted and being near you. Louise has had a hard life and is looking for a fun, loving forever home. Please consider Louise (…and possibly her friend, Thelma).

With the recent success of comic book characters on the big-screen – Avengers, Iron Man, Captain America, and Thor, just to name a few – is it any wonder there is an increased interest in comic books?
Unfortunately, missing from the comic book box-office bonanza are characters of color and, concomitantly, issues of race.
Yes, Samuel L. Jackson’s Nick Fury appears in the movies above – mostly as a post-credits tease to get movie goers excited about the Avengers, which eventually became a billion-dollar big-screen hit. However, even in the Avengers, Nick Fury has limited screen-time compared to his lighter skinned counter-parts, who do most of the fantastical heavy-lifting of world saving.
Adilifu Nama’s Super Black: American Pop Culture and Black Superheroes does a great job of introducing many of today’s comic book fans with the history of African Americans in comic books and pop culture generally – something our current comic book-to-movie craze has failed to do.
Nama doesn’t just focus on African-American superheroes, he focuses on race relations in comic books generally and between comic book characters specifically. Additionally, his analysis of race as a plot device used to address larger political issues – like drugs, crime and the prison industrial complex – within a contextual framework makes clear the point that comic books aren’t just for kids.
For example, Nama credits Dennis O’Neil’s and Neal Adams’ Green Lantern co-starring Green Arrow as a comic book series that “dramatically recast superheroes, and shaped the superhero comic book as a space where acute social issues were engaged,” including racism.
In the Green Lantern co-starring Green Arrow inaugural issue (#76, 1979) titled “No Evil Shall Escape My Sight,” the superheroes confront American racism. Across several panels an elderly black man is depicted questioning Green Lantern’s commitment to racial justice: The elderly man says, “I been readin’ about you…How you work for the Blue Skins…and how on a planet someplace you helped out the Orange Skins…and you done considerable for the Purple Skins. Only there’s skins you never bothered with! The Black skins!” Then the man asks, “I want to know…how come? Answer me that, Mr. Green Lantern!”
According to Nama, “Their conversation forever changed the boundaries of the superhero genre. Superheroes were no longer constrained to fighting imaginary creatures, intergalactic aliens, or Nazis from a distant past. Now they would grapple with some of the most toxic real-world social issues that America had to offer,” like racism.
Nama also places the creation of Black superheroes into historical context, and argues that many were by-products of specific political and ideological trends within the larger national and international movement for full equality and civil rights.
For example, Black Panther, who first appeared in Fantastic Four (#52, 1966) and is considered the first Black superhero in mainstream comics, is “a super-intelligent and highly skilled hunter-fighter superhero…” from a technologically advanced imaginary African Nation. In other words, he was “an idealized composite of third-world black revolutionaries and the anti-colonialist movement of the 1950’s that they represented…” While Black Panther initially appeared in Fantastic Four he eventually got his own comic book in 1977.
Similarly, Luke Cage, was a Black superhero that symbolized “the cresting prison reform movement of the early 1970s…” As a former gang member sent to prison for a crime he didn’t commit, Cage became a “victim of medical experimentation and prison violence at the hands of white authorities” and is considered “a very serious comic book superhero…who periodically takes on questionable assignments…” like chasing down Spiderman or working for Dr. Doom in order to pay the bills.
Unlike his white superhero counterparts – like Batman – Cage “struggles to ‘get paid.'” Undoubtedly, though he occupied a two-dimensional world, Cage was as a three-dimensional, complex comic book character. After 16 issues Luke Cage, Hero for Hire changed its title to Power Man, thereby articulating a connection to the 1960’s and 70’s Black Power movement.
Nama also addresses the preponderance of African Americans, or other people of color, as sidekicks. “Such representations,” he writes, “symbolize, promote and normalize their status as second-class citizens in American Society.”
While Nama also discusses movies and other forms of pop culture, Black comic books are his main focus.
Super Black is a short, yet illuminating analysis of Black Superheroes and race relations, primarily in the 2-D world. Obviously, at only 180 pages, it couldn’t cover all aspect of American culture and Black superheroes. However, as a short book, it does one hell of a good job.

The Pentagon asked the Supreme Court on Monday to partially block a lower court injunction on unvaccinated Navy SEALs, who sued President Biden last year because they were seeking a religious exemption.
The request follows a January ruling by a federal judge in Texas who temporarily blocked the Department of Defense from halting the deployment of SEALs who refuse to comply with the military’s COVID-19 vaccination mandate. The judge’s order also forbids military commanders from making any changes to their military assignments due to their unvaccinated status.
At issue is whether the Navy has the discretion to deny the deployment for those who are unvaccinated.
The emergency court filing on Monday stated that the order “requires the Navy to assign and deploy them without regard to their lack of vaccinations, notwithstanding military leaders’ judgment that doing so poses intolerable risks to safety and mission success.”
The injunction compelled the Navy to already send one SEAL team to Hawaii “for duty on a submarine against its military judgment,” according to the filing.
Vice Chief of Naval Operations Admiral William K. Lescher warned that the illness of even one member of a small SEAL team due to COVID-19 could “compromise the mission.”
“The Navy has an extraordinarily compelling interest in ensuring that the service members who perform those missions are as physically and medically prepared as possible,” read the filing. “That includes vaccinating them against COVID-19, which is the least restrictive means of achieving that interest.”
The Department of Defense’s mandate on all active-duty service members went into effect for the Marine Corps on Nov. 28.
In January, Texas-based U.S. District Judge Reed O’Connor issued the stay in response to a lawsuit filed by First Liberty Institute last November on behalf of 35 active-duty SEALs and three reservists, as first reported by Fox News Digital.
“The Navy service members in this case seek to vindicate the very freedoms they have sacrificed so much to protect. The COVID-19 pandemic provides the government no license to abrogate those freedoms. There is no COVID-19 exception to the First Amendment,” O’Connor wrote in his ruling. “There is no military exclusion from our Constitution.”
The SEALs represented in the lawsuit were all members of various Christian denominations and objected to the vaccine mandate based on “their sincerely held religious beliefs,” claiming the military was violating their constitutional rights.
In February, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit declined to put O’Connor’s order on hold, leading to the appeal on Monday.
Lawyers for the SEALs will have until Monday, March 14 at 4 p.m. to respond.
The court would then issue an order on enforcement, which would be temporary in nature until the issue is fully litigated in the lower courts.


In 2013, I started my work on the design and co-development of Annotation Pro, a freely available software tool for annotation of linguistic and paralinguistic features. The programme offers a multilayer annotation interface, spectrogram display, graphical feature representation for annotation using continuous rating scales as well as perception test options, Annotation Pro is freely available for research and education purposes. Annotation Pro is continuously evolving – We are working on both its interface and functionality on a current basis. You can download the current version here: annotationpro.org/downloads. A number of plugins and external modules have so far been developed. One of them is the automatic transcription and segmentation module ANNPRO available from the CLARIN-PL repository (here). Any feedback is very welcome!
Resources for the analysis of linguistic and paralinguistic features in speech
Since 2014, I have been involved in Borderland, a project addressed at the documentation and interdisciplinary analysis of phenomena related to interpersonal communication in the region of Słubice (Poland) and Frankfurt Oder (Germany) – on the border of languages and cultures (http://borderland.amu.edu.pl/).
One of the corpora I co-developed earlier in 2013 is the Paralingua corpus for the study of linguistic and paralinguistic features (cf. Klessa et al., 2013 published in the proceedings of CILC 2013). If you are interested in using the Paralingua corpus for your research please contact me at email@example.com The corpus is freely available for non-commercial research purposes after confirmation of reading and accepting the user’s licence. It is sufficient to send the confirmation of reading and accepting the licence as an e-mail attachment. Please specify whether you are interested in EMO or DIAL subcorpus.
Using electromagnetic articulography to investigate speaking styles and speech disorders
Infant directed speech (IDS) is a speaking style reported to involve certain facilitatory features that help infants to: segment speech; distinguish between speech sounds; learn new phonological categories in their native language; become more successful in word / language learning; develop better intersensory integration. In a team of researchers including Anita Lorenc and Łukasz Mik we use Carstens AG501 articulograph (at the Applied Phonetcs Lab in Warsaw, read more HERE) to collect speech production data for IDS and ADS (adult directed speech) as well as pilot datasets of disordered speech.
Text and Speech Corpora for Speech Technology
In the years 2006-2010 I worked within research projects aiming at creating very large text and speech corpora for automatic speech synthesis and recognition for Polish. The resulting corpora are e.g. the Jurisdic acoustic database (approximately 2000 voices delivering read and semi-spontaneous speech, currently deposited at Speech and Language Data Repository (SLDR/ORTOLANG), here) and the Speechlabs ASR lexical database (above 3 mln vocabulary items phonetically transcribed, accompanied by inflection information).
Endangered Languages – Corpora and Education Resources
Following my interests in various kinds of speech and language corpora I have also become involved in cooperation with a team of colleagues working on the issues of endangered languages within two projects: Dziedzictwo językowe Rzeczypospolitej. Baza dokumentacji zagrożonych języków – Poland’s Linguistic Heritage. Development of a Documentation Database for Endangered Languages : www.inne-jezyki.amu.edu.pl, and INNET – European Project for Endangered Languages Archive Network Management and Reinforcement. The product of the Innet project is among others the website languagesindanger.eu
I am interested in various types of prosodic phenomena, temporal organization of spoken language, the functions of melody in speech as well as the interactions between speech prosody and other aspects of human communication such as gesture or mimicry. I wrote my doctoral dissertation about Polish segmental duration modelling for the purposes of speech synthesis (2006, Adam Mickiewicz University, The Institute of Linguistics). My adventure with speech prosody started even before I achieved my PhD, at the time when I had participated in a research project focusing on Polish intonation whose result was the 1st digitally recorded Polish corpus of (semi)spontaneous task-oriented dialogues (PoInt: Polish Intonation Database, for more go to: https://maciejk.home.amu.edu.pl/?page_id=4 ).

I am a member of the Collective Bias® Social Fabric® Community. This shop has been compensated as part of a social shopper insights study for Collective Bias and their client. Over the long weekend we spent a lot of time with family and ate a LOT of good food! On Sunday my husband’s mom, sister and our niece came over to spend the day with us and I made a mouth-watering crock-pot fajita casserole! Everyone loved it and the meal prep was a breeze. When trying to think of something to make for dinner I knew this: we were going to be in and out of the house, we were eating lunch out and I didn’t want to be stuck in the kitchen while everyone else was visiting in the living room. I immediately knew I was going to make something in my crock-pot for dinner because that is my go-to. When I don’t feel like cooking or know we have plans in the evening I just whip up something and through it in. I put the chicken in the crock pot Sunday morning before our company arrived and after they arrived we left for a while in the afternoon. When we returned home the smell from the crock pot was amazing. My mother and sister-in-law wanted to know what I used to season the chicken and when I showed them my secret, the Kraft Recipe Makers package, they were completely surprised! It took me less than thirty minutes to get dinner from the crock pot to the table. We ate on paper plates and that made clean-up a breeze too! Don’t you love a quick, easy mess free, HOME COOKED meal? I know I sure do! Seriously do you see all that yummy goodness layered into the dish? I LOVE Mexican and tex-mex food so after one bite (to make sure it tasted as good as it looks!) this meal was a keeper in my book. There were two pieces leftover and at the end of the night I through them out since we aren’t big on leftovers. Later my husband asked me where they were because he was craving more — ooops! I purchased all of the ingredients I needed on a quick trip to Walmart. I can’t wait to try the other Kraft Recipe Makers to put together more quick meals for my family. Crock Pot Fajita Casserole Recipe: Ingredients:
- Kraft Tex-Mex Chicken Fajita Recipe Maker
- 2 lbs. bonesless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 diced green pepper
- 1 diced medium onion
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- 1 package flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Your favorite fajita toppings – we used lettuce, sour cream and extra cheese!.
- Place chicken breasts and the zesty lime fajita sauce (from the Kraft Recipe Makers box) in a crock pot on low for 6-8 hours. When it is finished break apart with two forks.
- 30 minutes before you are ready to eat turn the oven on to 350 degrees. Sauté green pepper and onion in olive oil.
- Grease a 13×9 baking dish and layer flour tortillas across the bottom. Layer in the chicken and sprinkle with half of the shredded cheese. Put another layer of flour tortillas over top and then layer the sautéed peppers and onion, the other 1/2 cup of shredded cheese and half of the packet of chipotle and tomato salsa.
- Pop the fajita casserole into the oven at 350 degrees for 15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and gooey. Pull it out, cut and serve with your favorite toppings!

Although the thinking man's horror blog Arbogast On Film is out of commission, its eponymous resident reviewer's love for horror and its resonant effect on his own life continues to live on...
"How did your horror love develop?"
I suppose my interest in horror developed as a defensive reaction. I grew up during the Vietnam War but the details of that clusterfuck were largely kept from me and nobody talked about it other than the fact that my cousin Jackie had disgraced the family by dodging the draft. But it was the dawn of media saturation and there were certain current events that just could not be ignored. The Tate-LaBiance killings really changed me, disheartened and damaged me. I knew from then on there was no safe place, that there were evils from which my parents could not protect me. So I began to steel myself, I suppose, by dipping into the macabre. That all sounds very deterministic but, really, it was also about being 10 years old and discovering Famous Monsters of Filmland and thinking monsters were cool.
Horror cut through the haze of life in an isolated milltown, cut off from anything interesting or cultural or fine where all anybody cared about was football, where young French-Canadian Catholic boys leavened their catechism with cruelty. I was bullied for a while, until I got too big and too weird to mess with. There was a palpable sense of pointlessness in my county and so there was a lot of drinking, adults and kids, and kids routinely died out on the highway in road accidents. Another kid went on to become a serial killer with a double digit list of victims, all young girls. In accepting that we were all cut from the same cloth, we were all neighbors, but that some of us chose one path and the rest of us chose another, I guess I was already forging my horror aesthetic.
In later life, my appreciation for macabre subjects has played an interesting role in the real life death and, I'm sorry to say, even murder of loved ones and close friends. I've lived some real life horror movie scenes, one of which robbed me of a child, and yet horror is still important to me. Crucial. It's my thinking cap, my worry beads, my safe place. I wish people would treat the genre better, especially those who profess to love it so much.

Moscow, August 11, Interfax – The Imperial Orthodox Palestinian Society (IOPS) has urged Russians to provide whatever help they can to the blockaded residents of the Gaza Strip.
“Funds raised will be used to buy and send medication, baby food and foodstuffs to the Gaza Strip,” the IOPS said on its website.
According to the organization, more than 1,800 people have already been killed as a result of the Israeli military operation in Gaza, over 140,000 Palestinians have had to flee their homes, around one million residents have no access to drinking water, the only electric power station has been destroyed, and houses, schools, mosques and churches have come under intense fire from land, air and sea.
“The long-suffering Gaza Strip, with its population of 1.8 million, including around 2,000 Christians, living under the eight-year blockade, today urgently needs humanitarian aid. Residents of the Palestinian enclave are experiencing severe shortages of drinking water, food, medications, there is no electricity, no diesel fuel,” the statement said.
IOPS Vice President Yelena Agapova, who leads the organization’s public center for the protection of Christians in the Middle East and North Africa, maintains contact with the Orthodox clergy in Gaza via cell phone.
“They testified that residents of the enclave are on the brink of starvation, many are injured, including children who have lost their parents. Pain and desperation are everywhere,” the statement said.
The IOPS was founded in 1882 on the order of Russian Emperor Alexander III. The Society’s principal goals and objectives are: to organize trips for Russian pilgrims to holy places (Palestine, Athos, Bari), to assist Russian Church services abroad, to conduct cultural and educational activities for population in the Middle East and academic research into the historical legacy of the Holy Land.

Scholars Criticize Report on Transgender Students
A report on transgender student policies in American schools by a conservative think tank is being taken to task by experts.
The report from the Heritage Foundation, called “Gender Identity Policies in Schools: What Congress, the Courts and Trump Administration Should Do,” came out in March. Robert Kim, a research fellow at Rutgers University, has put together a rebuttal.
He said the report claims to give guidance on how states and school districts can resolve issues surrounding transgender students. But he said in reality, it only advises the federal government to stay out of the issue.
“The absence of clear federal guidance now means that thousands of students in states or districts that are not supportive of the goal of keeping transgender students safe and well-integrated will have to rely on other means to seek redress for what’s happening to them,” Kim said.
The report said the Obama administration tried to force a one-size-fits-all policy on the entire nation rather than allowing parents, teachers and local schools to find solutions. Kim said schools need policies to keep transgender students safe, and also to foster a climate that encourages acceptance. He criticized the Heritage report for failing to address those topics.
Kim said schools need to know how to refer to transgender students, how to deal with the name and gender changes in official school records, and how to create policies that make students feel comfortable in school restrooms, locker rooms, and when participating in sports and overnight field trips.
He said there have been some positive changes made in states such as California, Massachusetts and the District of Columbia.
“States and districts have done a lot around the country,” Kim said. “And that is good news because those districts and state policies are going to provide the guidance needed in the future for other states and districts to follow.”
He said students who aren’t in districts that correctly deal with gender identity issues may resort to filing lawsuits. But, he observed, not every family can afford to take that route.

An ambitious new megaport project in Montevideo which received municipal approval three years ago is still awaiting approval from the National Port Authority (ANP).
According to El Pais, the phenomenal growth in the number of ships arriving in the Port of Montevideo in recent years prompted Buquebus to search for undeveloped parcels where the ferry operator could build a new terminal, a five-star hotel and luxury condominiums. The US$100 million Port of Capurro would transform an area of the coast that is largely industrial.
The lone hurdle revolves around access. In order to move forward, the Port Authority would need to dredge a new canal. The current proposal would have ANP covering the cost of canal construction and then charging Buquebus and other ships for access going forward.
ANP’s President Alberto Diaz expresses a willingness to help with the construction of the canal, although he says his agency wants to see more details regarding “technical aspects” of the project.
The development was originally approved by the city in January 2010 and now forty months later, the number of ships coming into the Port of Montevideo has surged dramatically. This month alone over 100 ships have been spotted off the coast, according to Marcelo Gallardo.

The most stressful time of the year
When I was little, I remember starting the countdown to the holidays at Halloween. I could not wait for the festivities, dinners, decorations, and presents. I eagerly sprinted from one activity to the next, not giving much thought to the work behind the magic. I was filled with the Christmas spirit.
As an adult, we have hit the time of year I have almost come to dread. Between parties, responsibilities, extra bills, longer days, and more cooking, my Christmas cheer is drained before November first. I suspect a lot of adults feel the same. I can remember dreading the start of the season for many years, of wondering how I could find the extra energy, time, and money that was needed. In an effort to keep up with everything, I was exhausted and often felt like I missed key family moments.
After we lost my grandfather, something in me shifted. With his passing, I learned the finite value of time. As I processed this lesson, a few years later we almost lost my dad at the holidays. That moment, the moment I realized I wanted nothing more than to be a daughter for the holidays, was the moment I chose to stop chasing what everyone else declared to be Christmas cheer. In that moment, I realized moments and memories were far more important than personifying the perfect Christmas.
Leaning on that lesson, the past two Christmases have been much simpler, much more focused on family and memories than parties, presents, and feasts. The simpler Christmases have felt so much more magical, and fewer responsibilities have allowed us to experience more things, such as walking our lab Raffy through Christmas light displays and listening to him sing his joy. I will never forget the pure joy in each howl as he pranced through the park. Or exploring an interactive Christmas Carol with my child. Life has a funny way of showing you the moments of true value and what will matter in the end.
Preparing for a Simple Christmas
For me, the first step is to remind myself why a simple holiday season is important. This Christmas is Selina’s first Christmas with us, and in our eagerness to shower her with love, we could go overboard. Rather than driving ourselves crazy trying to keep an overactive puppy out of the Christmas tree, my child and I have decided a much smaller tree will be much nicer. We can enjoy the tree and not stress over the impending death of a favorite ornament.
Knowing we will be decorating less, we actively choose to also spend less. Rather than buying each other as many presents as possible, we are choosing to give each other a few carefully selected presents. With a smaller gift budget, the stress is much lower, and we can focus on celebrating the cheer of the season, creating memories, and even baking together.
As you start to think about the holidays, ask yourself what is important. In five years, what would you regret not doing? Trust me, your children will not regret fewer gifts if it means less stress and more present parents. How many holiday parties do you really need to attend? Where will your presence be most valuable? Rather than compare yourself to others, what unique traditions can you start? What can you implement to make the holidays joyful and unique?
The final step is setting a budget and agreeing to stick to it. There is nothing worse than stressing over money at the holidays or knowing January brings financial burdens. Choosing to spend less means being able to spend time and be carefree. More memories and fewer bills are always a win.
Choosing to be more present, to celebrate the holidays your way, in your budget is freeing. Don’t expect others to understand, but also don’t bother to explain your decision to others. If someone is truly interested in your newfound Christmas Cheer, share your wisdom. Focusing on the moments and memories will never be a decision you will regret.

I love to organize and have things neat and orderly in my house. I'm constantly looking for practical yet beautiful storage solutions that can make my life easier.
I recently saw this post on House of Smith's blog and was so inspired to get my pantry more organized and layed out better. I LOVE how she used a mixture of clear jars with bold labels, wooden crates, metal bins, a painted & stenciled wall, no boxes or clutter, and everything's visible for easy access. She even added decorative moulding around the edge of the shelving. It's PERFECT!
Here's a few pictures of her pantry makeover.
These clear clamp lid jars are perfect to organize your pantry and kitchen cabinets. They can be found at Crate & Barrel.
via a delightful blog
I bought some clear jars with metal lids (similar to HOS)
at WalMart and reorganized my pantry! I also reorganized my cooking utensil drawer with black Rubbermaid dividers and trays. (also found at WalMart) I then took it a step further and started organizing under my bathroom sinks with wire shelving, baskets, and clear containers from the Container Store.
I hope this inspires you to reorganize a few clutter spots in your home. After organizing a few areas of my own, I now feel better everytime I open those doors, drawers, and cabinets!


Bollards have once again been put up along one of Nottingham city centre's busiest roads in a bid to keep traffic flowing over the festive period.
The bollards appeared in the centre of Upper Parliament Street, outside the Euro Car Park, once again on Sunday, November 29.
Last year Nottingham City Council installed foundations in the road surface to make it easier for the bollards to be put up.
The council says the aim is to "deter drivers from turning right into/out of the Euro Car Park", blocking the way for traffic heading towards Tollhouse Hill and causing delays through the city.
They are typically installed from November until January each year, when the city centre roads become busier amid the Christmas shopping rush.
While Christmas will likely not bring half as many shoppers this year due to the coronavirus pandemic, the bollards have still made an appearance.
In November of 2019, Nottinghamshire Live ran a poll asking readers if the measures were favourable.
A total of 76% of voters said they were an important traffic calming measure.
The bollard foundations were installed after motorists were seen to knock them over and turn into the car park.
The council said they had a "noticeable improvement" on traffic flow.

So here we are then, after a hiatus of just over three (very long!) months, assuming nothing goes dramatically wrong between now and 6pm this evening when Aston Villa are due to get the Premier League back underway with their clash with Sheffield United, English football is back. It will still be football but based on my close scrutiny of the Bundesliga in Germany and La Liga in Spain, it may take a bit of getting used to.
First and foremost, we are all going to have to remind ourselves where we left off. Almost inevitably Liverpool will win the title, their 25-point lead at the top, albeit having played a game more than defending champions Manchester City, means the only thing to be decided is where and when they will clinch it. The not-so-smart money might suggest that if Arsenal beat Manchester City in this evening’s second game (stop laughing at the back!), then it could be as early as Sunday against local rivals Everton.
If the destination of the title is all but a foregone conclusion then the battle for the European places remains tightly poised. Leicester had been enjoying their second best season ever and will be looking to cement their second qualification for the Champions League, assuming of course there is a Champions League to qualify for, however there is some work for Brendan Rodgers’ charges to do with their lead over fourth-placed Chelsea currently 5 points.
Of course, with Court of Arbitration for Sport (Cas) due to announce its decision on Manchester City’s appeal against their two-year European ban in the first half of July, it could well be that qualification stretches down to fifth-placed. In which case a fascinating battle looks to be in store between two members of the “Big Six” and two surprising interlopers. As things stand Chelsea and Manchester United look to be in the better position: the Blues in fourth lead Ole Gunnar Solskjær’s side by 3 points, than this season’s somewhat surprising challengers Wolves and Sheffield United who sit a further 2 points behind although of course Chris Wilder’s men have a game in hand. With Sheffield United travelling to Old Trafford in a week’s time and then hosting Wolves a fortnight later all involved will need to hit the ground running right from the off.
In many ways, a big part of me really wants either Wolves or Sheffield United (or even both) to do it if only to shake the old order up, having three of the four Champions League qualifiers from outside the “Big Six” might contribute to resetting football and improving the competitive balance. Here’s hoping anyway.
Hovering just below that the two North London rivals Arsenal and Tottenham will need to establish some momentum and claw back gaps of 8 and 7 points to Chelsea if they are to have realistic aspirations for overtaking Wolves and Sheffield United and qualifying for the Champions League gravy train. For the latter having Son Heung-min and, perhaps even more crucially, Harry Kane back after injury should give them an unexpected boost.
As for Arsenal, the focus according to Mikel Arteta is to go all out for European qualification and more specifically getting back into the Champions League from which they have been absent for three seasons. However if that starts to become unrealistic might they be better served to treat this run of matches in quick succession as more of a development phase in which the still new boss can look to develop his squad ahead of next season and for the future? How things go for the Gunners will no doubt have a huge influence on whether they can convince top goal-scorer and skipper Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to sign a new deal.
At the lower end of the table it has been rumoured/ reported that the bottom six were very much in favour of cancelling the season and escaping relegation, self-preservation having been the motive for all clubs across England’s leagues in considering whether to try to restart or not. Norwich City, adrift at the bottom by 4 points, look to have a big challenge on their hands to stay in the top flight, but with just 4 points separating Brighton in fifteenth and Aston Villa in nineteenth the scrap to avoid relegation will no doubt have a number of twists and turns in store.
Of course the experience of watching football in the “new normal” (TM anyone who has spoken about the future over the last 3 months) is going to be different, with no fans allowed in the grounds and no pubs as yet open, we will all be watching it from the comfort of our own homes. The domestic broadcasters have confirmed that we will have the option of team-specific crowd noise and video chats to try and add some element of atmosphere while watching.
As someone who was initially (highly) sceptical ahead of sampling it in the Bundesliga I have to now say that the crowd noise works to an extent and I am even getting used to the projected fans used in La Liga’s coverage. Although that might lend a slightly surreal atmosphere to watching Arsenal play at the Emirates for us Gooners, perhaps they might consider piping in a general feeling of disgruntlement bordering on apathy. With the games coming thick and fast between now and the projected end date of the 26th of July it is going to be like having a summer tournament to watch and follow in the absence of the Euros.
While it is absolutely right that we should be looking forward to the return of the Premier League and of course the Championship a step below it, it is also appropriate to reflect on the decision to call Leagues One and Two to a halt. While it was confirmed that those in the promotion spots would go up and the Play-Offs would be played out as mini-competitions, most cruelly it doomed my hometown team Tranmere Rovers to relegation and also saw Peterborough denied a Play-Off place on the basis of the Points-Per-Game system adopted, both by incredibly slim margins.
Clubs in the lower divisions obviously don’t have the benefit of the TV deals enjoyed by those higher up and are therefore heavily reliant on matchday revenue, so the agreement that the Leagues couldn’t be played out is completely understandable. However, if the competitions are declared null and void then promotion and relegation perhaps shouldn’t have even been considered.
In Tranmere’s case in particular they were three points away from safety, had just won three matches in succession and were due to play fellow relegation candidates AFC Wimbledon, Rochdale and MK Dons in their next few matches. They had a fighting chance to say the least. Instead enforced relegation has seen the club forced to make redundancies and facing significant further financial losses on top of those from the pandemic. Owner Mark Palios has suggested that (rightly) the club are considering legal action stating: “We have been very clear that we regard the vote as unfair, unjust and an entirely unnecessary infliction of damage on our club when we are already grappling with the impact of a global pandemic.” I realise I am biased here but it is hard for any true-minded football fan to disagree.
Of course, there are still major concerns for clubs in all divisions, including those in the Premier League, going forward if for the foreseeable future fans will continue to be prevented from attending matches and the resultant financial implications. However, football is our shared great escape from reality and all we can do for now is to do our very best to enjoy the return of football even if it isn’t quite how we remember it.

Arsenal legend Thierry Henry has backed Chelsea's chances of winning the treble this season, following their triumph in the Capital One Cup on Sunday.
The Blues beat London rivals Tottenham Hotspur 2-0 to lift their first piece of silverware in the form of the League Cup since their triumph in the Europa League in 2013.
Apart from that, Chelsea were also handed a boost in the Premier League title race after their nearest rivals Manchester City were beaten 1-2 at Liverpool. City's defeat at Anfield means that the Blues now have a good chance to increase the gap between themselves and the Citizens to eight points.
The Blues also have a good chance to reach the quarter-finals of the Champions League, having recorded a 1-1 draw during their round of 16 first leg clash against PSG in France.
And Henry, who is currently working as a pundit for Sky Sports, sees no reason why Chelsea cannot win the Premier League and Champions League and completed the treble this season.
"I think they can. They have all of the quality required to win the treble," the former NY Red Bulls striker told Sky Sports.
The 37-year-old feels that Chelsea will go all the way in the Champions League if they manage to get past PSG in the second leg of the round of sixteen on 12 March.
"I'm so eager to see that game against Paris Saint-Germain. That will be massive. If they beat PSG, you have to go through maybe Bayern Munich, then Real Madrid and Barcelona. Time will tell. But that PSG game will be a massive task for them," he said.
Henry says that he was especially impressed by Chelsea performance in the League Cup, considering they were recently beaten 3-5 by the Spurs in the Premier League at Stamford Bridge.
"He (Mourinho) came to do a job with his team and they did it," added the Frenchman. "They don't defend because they have to – they love and enjoy to defend. They live to defend, you can see that every time, that's why most of the time they play a final they end up winning it."

People make a priest, even though he must be ordained by a bishop. His companions also define the priest’s upbringing, filled with fun incidents. In this book, you will discover the lighter side of what happens within the walls of the seminary, where priests are trained. How can these stories avoid organizational politics? The events capture conflict and controversies. Priests do face trials from their own Bishops, Superiors, and people. Courageous priests often defy the mores of the institution while still being faithful to their divine calling. Sheer spontaneity defines these stories. You can call it inspiring or crafty, but each priest found a way around an insurmountable obstacle. Sometimes, people put the priest on the spot. His only response is to admire the opponent. These stories you will read were guarded as a secret, till now.
To be a priest is to be uncommon. But to be uncommon among the priests is a rarity. It can redefine priesthood to stay relevant. I hope these stories, like case scenarios, will enlighten priests to lead their pastoral ministry with creativity and holiness. I look forward that you cherish reading The Uncommon Priest: Incredible Stories You Never Read.

This article is part of our College Basketball Picks series.
The month of March is finally upon us, and teams all across the country are still making their case to have their ticket punched on Selection Sunday. Steve Peralta breaks down some notable matchups with potential seeding implications and shares his best bets of the evening.
Texas at TCU
Star guard Mike Miles returned to the starting lineup on February 18, providing a much-needed boost to the Horned Frogs following a multi-week absence due to injury. TCU was 16-4 (5-3 in the Big 12) prior to Miles' injury at the start of the Mississippi State game, and the Horned Frogs lost five of six games without Miles playing (including the MSU game). Now that Miles is healthy again, TCU more closely resembles itself, winning two of three games, including an emphatic 100-75 win over Oklahoma State. Miles' offensive production cannot be overstated, especially because TCU is currently ranked 20th in KenPom's defensive efficiency standings and third in the Big 12 during conference play. When TCU plays its customary stingy defense and Miles is locked in, the Horned Frogs possess a seemingly unbeatable combination.
Despite losing its head coach in early December, Texas has managed to put itself in a great position to secure a favorable seed come Selection Sunday. That being said, the Longhorns are still vulnerable in a couple of areas. First, Texas has gotten gashed on the perimeter throughout league competition, allowing Big 12 opponents to make over 35 percent of shots from behind the arc, the highest percentage allowed in the conference. Second, Texas' offensive rebounding numbers are down over the past couple of months, recording the second-lowest offensive rebounding percentage among Big 12 teams during conference play. Additionally, like most college teams, Texas hasn't been so formidable away from home, losing five of its last seven road games.
The last time these two teams played, back on January 11 in Austin, TCU gave Texas everything it could handle. The Horned Frogs held a 42-29 lead at halftime but ultimately fell by a final score of 79-75. The game was tied with under two minutes remaining, so TCU had a genuine shot at taking home the victory. In any event, Wednesday's game will take place in Fort Worth, giving TCU the location edge this time around. This game will likely come down to the wire, but my money is on Mike Miles and company getting the job done at home.
College Basketball Best Bet: TCU -1.5
Penn State at Northwestern
Penn State might not make the Big Dance come March, but nonetheless, the Nittany Lions have shown massive improvement in their second year under head coach Micah Shrewsberry. This is most apparent on the offensive side of the court, where Penn State has played at an elite level for most of the season. Among all D1 teams, the Nittany Lions rank 14th in adjusted offensive efficiency (per KenPom), first in offensive turnover percentage, and 10th in effective field goal percentage. Moreover, Penn State is arguably the best shooting team in the land. The Nittany Lions are making 39 percent of their three-point shots while shooting three-pointers at the fifth-highest rate in the country, yielding the second-highest three-pointer point distribution among all D1 teams.
Northwestern, meanwhile, appears to have its ticket punched for March Madness, although the Wildcats are still vulnerable, especially on defense. Northwestern's overall defensive numbers are great, although a closer look at more recent data tells a different story. Since the conference season tipped off, Northwestern ranks eighth in defensive efficiency among Big Ten teams, which isn't awful, but the underlying numbers are much worse. When facing conference opponents, Northwestern's defense is allowing the third-highest field goal percentage in the Big Ten, on shots taken both inside and outside the arc. Northwestern also has the worst defensive rebounding rate in the Big Ten during that same time span, as well as the fifth-lowest offensive rebounding rate, clearly representing one of the weaker rebounding teams in the conference.
The Nittany Lions might be a bit reliant on outside shooting, although they have a good reason -- they have several outstanding shooters up and down their lineup. Given this particular playing style, it's possible Wednesday might be a day when the shots don't fall, but ultimately I'm betting the significantly better offense will come out on top. I'm taking the points in this matchup.
College Basketball Best Bet: Penn State +3.5
Missouri at LSU
Missouri has had quite a successful season. The Tigers collected wins over the likes of UCF, Illinois, Kentucky, Arkansas, Iowa State and Tennessee, putting them in a position to hear their name called on Selection Sunday. The key to their success has been their explosive offensive attack, ranking ninth in KenPom's adjusted efficiency standings. Missouri's offensive prowess has carried throughout the conference season as well, recording the second-highest effective field goal percentage and three-point field goal percentage among SEC teams. The numbers on the other end of the court won't generate much praise, although they do stand out in a particular category -- generating turnovers. The Tigers have the fifth-highest defensive turnover percentage among all D1 teams, and the highest in the SEC during conference play, so they undoubtedly have a penchant for causing the other team to commit mistakes on offense. This skill will surely come in handy in Wednesday's game, as Missouri's opponent has struggled with offensive turnovers, recording the third-worst percentage among SEC teams.
LSU has suffered the most conference losses in the SEC this season, and that's largely due to ineffectiveness across the board. Since the conference season started, LSU ranks last in the SEC in offensive efficiency, effective field goal percentage and two-point field goal percentage. These numbers are bad enough, but then we also see a similar story on the other end of the court, where LSU has the third-worst defensive efficiency among SEC teams during league competition and also ranks last in effective field goal percentage allowed and three-point field goal percentage allowed. The only thing that LSU has done well against the SEC is collect defensive rebounds, but then again, that doesn't mean much if the Tigers can't stop Missouri's potent offense from scoring. After looking at the data, it's easy to see why LSU has won only a single game since we entered the New Year.
All in all, these two teams are miles apart from each other. One team is still heavily invested in this season, while the other team is most likely three games away from calling it a year. LSU has already lost 14 of 16 conference games this season, and 12 of those losses came by at least nine points. Given Missouri's high ceiling and LSU's massive struggles, I'm taking Mizzou and the points in this one.
College Basketball Best Bet: Missouri -5.5
