9 thoughts to “Disney On Ice presents Treasure Trove”
My son Jack is excited to see Jake and the Neverland Pirates (and Hook!). He’s also a fan of Ariel! I myself LOVE Rapunzel. 🙂
Fondest Disney Memory: One of my best memories as a child was when my parents would drive me to St. Louis to see Disney on Ice shows. They took me once a year, and it was ALWAYS a big deal. We would go to the show, spend the night in a hotel (with a pool!), eat at IHOP for breakfast, and then drive back to Quincy. Always magical!
My kids would love this! My fondest Disney memory was taking my kids to see Disney on Ice for the first time! It was magical!
Disney has always been a magical place for my family and I it started with my parents and became a huge part of my children’s lives. Both of my parents have passed way in the last 18 months. The last vacation they had was with the grandchildren at the wake Disney parks in Florida although Disney will always hold a special place for me and my children it will never be the same as it was then. Now it’s time to make new memories with my own granddaughter and children. My children and I will keep the love and magic of Disney alive so my own granddaughter has the same wonderful experience and memories to last a lifetime.
My little girls are most excited about All the princesses!
My favorite Disney memory was seeing my little girl see the castle for the first time! Precious ❤❤❤
Emma just loves Ariel! I remember as a kid, going to Disney World and getting a chance to see Ariel in person! Back then, she still had fins (unlike today where she’s always on two feet). I’m not sure what makes Emma so into Ariel. Maybe that part of me transferred to her somehow.
Devon is excited to see Jake and the Neverland Pirates! My best memory was seeing my sins face when he saw Mickey skating on ice then Minnie came and then when they were in the toon car! His face lit up! It was magical!
My daughter I’d most excited about seeing the characters from The Lion King. She’s never been to see Disney on Ice.
My niece and nephew would be the most excited to see Disney on Ice because they are best friends and we all have a big heart for Disney!
One of my fondest memories (I have 2) is taking my honeymoon to Disney because even as adults you can love it and when my niece went for the first time to Disney World. She stepped off the plane and was handed her first pair of ears and her eyes just lit up. We made sure Magic Kingdom was the first stop and she got so giddy seeing the castle for the first time, it was magical!

As an experienced accountant who has helped numerous e-commerce businesses thrive, I understand the importance of selecting the right accounting software to streamline your operations. In this open ed, we will explore various accounting software options available for e-commerce businesses, discuss how partnering with an experienced accountant can make a significant difference, and identify some of the biggest pitfalls to avoid during the software selection process.
Why E-commerce Businesses Need Specialized Accounting Software
E-commerce businesses face unique accounting challenges, such as managing inventory, processing online payments, handling sales tax compliance, and integrating with multiple sales channels. Traditional accounting software may not be equipped to handle these complexities, making it essential for e-commerce businesses to choose a solution tailored to their specific needs.
Top Accounting Software Options for E-commerce Businesses
Several accounting software options are designed specifically for e-commerce businesses or offer robust integrations with popular e-commerce platforms. While this is not an exhaustive list, here are some popular options to consider:
QuickBooks Online is a versatile cloud-based accounting solution that offers seamless integrations with popular e-commerce platforms like Shopify, WooCommerce, and BigCommerce. Its features include inventory management, sales tax calculation, and multi-channel sales tracking.
Xero is another cloud-based accounting software that offers a range of e-commerce integrations, including Shopify, WooCommerce, and Amazon. With features such as real-time financial reporting, inventory tracking, and sales tax management, Xero is a popular choice for growing e-commerce businesses.
Zoho Books is an online accounting software that provides integrations with e-commerce platforms like Shopify and Amazon. Its features include inventory management, automated sales tax calculations, and multi-currency support, making it suitable for e-commerce businesses with international sales.
NetSuite is a comprehensive ERP solution that caters to the needs of larger e-commerce businesses. It offers an integrated e-commerce suite, which includes inventory management, order processing, and multi-channel sales tracking, among other features.
The Value of Partnering with an Experienced Accountant
While selecting the right accounting software is crucial, partnering with an experienced accountant can further enhance your e-commerce business’s financial management. An accountant with e-commerce expertise can help you:
- Set up your accounting software correctly, ensuring smooth integration with your e-commerce platform and other business systems.
- Navigate complex tax compliance requirements, including sales tax collection and remittance across multiple jurisdictions.
- Optimize cash flow management, inventory tracking, and financial reporting to improve business decision-making.
- Identify potential cost savings and growth opportunities through strategic financial planning.
Avoiding Common Pitfalls in Choosing Accounting Software
When selecting accounting software for your e-commerce business, it’s essential to avoid some common pitfalls, such as:
- Ignoring scalability: Choose a solution that can grow with your business and adapt to changing needs, such as increased transaction volume or additional sales channels.
- Overlooking integrations: Ensure the software integrates seamlessly with your e-commerce platform, payment gateways, and other critical business systems to avoid manual data entry and potential errors.
- Neglecting user-friendliness: Look for software with an intuitive interface and accessible customer support to minimize the learning curve and ensure a smooth implementation process.
Choosing the right accounting software is a critical step in streamlining your e-commerce business’s financial management. By considering the unique needs of your e-commerce operation, partnering with an experienced accountant, and avoiding common pitfalls, you can set your business up for long-term success.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Governor DeWine on Tuesday provided an update on the increased impact that COVID-19 is having on Ohio’s younger populations and the stress that the surge of cases is having on hospitals statewide.
“The bottom line is that we’re seeing our highest levels ever of hospitalizations among those under 50 years old,” Gov. DeWine said. “Those who are getting very sick, being hospitalized, and dying of COVID are getting younger and younger. And it is because they are not vaccinated.”
On Tuesday, there were 459 newly-reported hospitalizations, the highest number of new hospitalizations since January.
The number of new hospitalizations for COVID-19 of those under 50, was the highest during of the entire pandemic during the week of Sept. 5, when Ohio hospitals admitted 398 patients under the age of 50.
During he most recent completed reporting week (Sept. 5-11), 230 Ohioans age 39 and younger were admitted to the hospital, which is the highest number of admissions for COVID in this age group during the entire pandemic, even higher than during the winter surge levels when no one was vaccinated.
Around 97 percent of patients of all ages in Ohio hospitals today are unvaccinated.
In July, 48 percent of COVID-19 deaths were among those 69 years old and younger. In August, preliminary data shows that an average of two people younger than 50 died of COVID-19 in Ohio every day.
Last month, preliminary numbers showed 18 Ohioans 39 and younger died from COVID-19. This is compared to five people in that age range who died in June and two people in that age range who died in July.
“If you are young and unvaccinated it’s now probably only a question of when, not if, you get COVID-19,” said Dr. Bruce Vanderhoff, Director, Ohio Department of Health. “When you get COVID-19 without the protection of a vaccine, there is a very real risk you’ll end up in the hospital or the obituary pages. The numbers really tell it all, COVID has changed and is now making younger Ohioans who are not vaccinated very sick. Don’t become a statistic when there is a simple, safe, and effective alternative. Go out today and get vaccinated.”
Preble County Data
Data from Preble County Public Health on Monday, Sept. 20, shows a slight decline in COVID-19 cases this week.
Compared to last week, the seven-day moving average showed 214 new cases and an average of 523.46 (-4.89) cases per 100,000 residents, a decrease of 0.93 percent.
As of Monday, Sept. 20, Preble County has 580 active cases, up from 528 last week.
As of Thursday, Sept. 16, National Trail reported nine new student cases, and four new cases (two students, two staff members) were reported at Twin Valley Community Schools. Cases were not reported at Eaton, Preble Shawnee, Tri-County North or the Preble County Educational Service Center.
As of Monday, Sept. 20, the overall case count breaks down to 735 (+48) cases in the 0-19 range, 681 (+33) cases in 20-29, 676 (+30) cases in 30-39, 749 (+31) cases in 40-49, 743 (+29) cases in 50-59, 638 (+24) cases in 60-69, 449 (+12) cases in 70-79, and 267 (+6) cases for those 80 and up.
Overall, there have been 110 (no change) COVID-19 deaths in Preble County and 4,938 (+213) total cases since the pandemic began. Additionally, 343 (+10) county residents have been hospitalized due to COVID-19.
Among COVID-19 deaths in Preble County, one was in the 40-49 age range, four were in the 50-59 range, 18 were in the 60-69 range, 44 were in the 70-79 range, and 43 were in the 80 and up range.
All Ohio counties are now classified as having a “high” level of community transmission, according to the CDC.
As of Sept. 20, 16,221 (+708) county residents have received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, or 39.7 percent of the county’s population.

Research, experience and daubs of humour will be on display when six architecture, design and housing industry experts join the Sunshine Coast Open House 2021 Debate to thrash out how the region should grow post-pandemic.
The debate at USC’s Innovation Centre auditorium from 6pm on Friday 22 October will tackle a provocative topic in the region, ‘Up or Out – Increasing density in existing urban areas is the future for the Sunshine Coast’.
USC Senior Lecturer in Urban Design and Town Planning Dr Nicholas Stevens will base his opinions on his recent research results, which identified the need for significant changes in public space design due to COVID-19 social distancing, lockdowns and travel restrictions.
Dr Stevens said planners had to work out how to protect people’s personal space in an era when more people were using limited outdoor spaces available in local neighbourhoods.
“That’s the core of it: How do we change neighbourhoods to offer people safe choices in how they live their lives, and in how their children live in the future?” he said.
“It’s about community wellbeing and public green space as an adaptable health asset. Can we intensify urban development to use our existing urban footprint in more efficient ways?
“This debate is important community education and advocacy for the Sunshine Coast.”
Dr Stevens said USC’s degree in urban design and planning was vital to provide a future professional workforce of creative and clever problem-solvers and forward thinkers.
The five other debaters will be Kerry Clare, architect and director of Clare Design; Bronwyn Adams, project manager, SunCentral; Phil Smith, architect, urban designer and director, Gomango Architects; Dr Laurel Johnson, city and social planner; and James Birrell, landscape architect and director at Place Design Group.
The winning team will be declared by Malcolm Middleton, Immediate Past Queensland Government Architect and Chair of Brisbane Open House.
The debate, to be moderated by urban designer Cathryn Chatburn, is part of this month’s 2021 Sunshine Coast Open House program, the region’s largest public architecture and design festival featuring public tours and experiences.
This Saturday 23 October, USC Art Gallery Manager Megan Williams will offer tours of the Gallery on campus at Sippy Downs.
And members of the public who attend participating Open Houses this weekend, 23-24 October, can submit entries in the 2021 Focus on Architecture Photography Competition, which will be judged by a panel including USC Lecturer in Photography Dr Tricia King.
For details and bookings go to www.sunshinecoastopenhouse.com.au/whats-on
Sunshine Coast Open House, which is part of the Open House Worldwide network, receives support from the Sunshine Coast Council Cultural Heritage Levy, The Australian Institute of Architects and other corporate partners.

“I’m not flexible, will I be able to do yoga?” The most common yoga question I ever heard. The answer is “Yes”, a BIG “Yes”. Of cause you are able to do yoga, yoga is for everyone.
A lot of people think they have to be flexible in order to do yoga, some people feel stressful and awkward in group classes where they can see very flexible people (advanced practitioner or naturally flexible). They feel shame when they are not able to touch their toes in forward bend. However, believe it or not, stiffness could be a blessing for our body to prevent us to over stretch ourselves.
After studying Yoga Anatomy, I understood more about body’s limitation of movement because of body proportion, bones, joints etc. I realized that neither being stiff or being flexible is perfect. Non-flexible people might found it very difficult to do various yoga poses while flexible people are easily over-stretch and lead to serious injury due to lack of body sensation.
In fact, stiffness is also a blessing on practicing self-acceptance. In a period of time I hated to go to yoga classes. Because I felt so upset whenever I see teachers or people who can easily make “perfect” yoga poses. I blamed myself and I forced myself to practice even I had injury in order to master those perfect poses. As a result, I never became “perfect” but ironically my injury became more serious.
I also realized I have never accepted who I am in the past. I always see perfection in others but being judgmental to myself. I see being stiff as a sin, I see imperfection of myself as a shame which is not true, totally wrong indeed.
I believe our number one priority in our life is to love ourselves. In order to spread our love to others we first have to love ourselves. To love ourselves fully we first need to accept ourselves unconditionally. Accepting your imperfections is a primary approach of self-acceptance. Let’s be imperfect and grow together on and off the mats! Have a nice day :)

With a limited launch in mainland China today, one glance at the new smartphones from Xiaomi leaves little doubt what the smartphone is all about. A third of the back of the smartphone is dominated by a dome covering a number of cameras with one of the biggest sensors we’ve seen in a smartphone so far — a 1-inch sensor covered with Leica glass.
A lot of people — men especially — will tell you that size doesn’t matter. In the case of imaging sensors, that just isn’t the case; the glass in front of lenses can only do so much, and perfect glass doesn’t exist. Bigger sensors means higher resolution, yes, but it also means that the sensors have space for bigger individual pixels. This helps both with the cooling of the sensor and could indicate much better low-light performance.
The entire 12S series of smartphones features different imaging systems jointly developed by Xiaomi and Leica. I know that in the process of making fun of Leica recently, I was making fun of Hasselblad for its smartphone integration, but in this case it actually somewhat makes sense. By using lenses designed by Leica (carrying the prestigious Leica Summicron brand, no less), the phone might actually be able to make the most of its sensors.
The range of cameras available on the various smartphones include some pretty sophisticated lens designs rarely seen on smartphones; I can’t wait to get my hands on one and see if it works as well out in the real world as it looks on paper.
The company claims that its lens designs drastically improve the photo quality the camera can deliver in general. The alphabet soup in the press release makes it sound as if the smartphone has re-invented the wheel, and makes some pretty juicy promises:
Xiaomi 12S Ultra primary camera adopts an 8P aspheric lens, in order to address common photography issues such as flare, ghosting, and chromatic aberration, the camera module of Xiaomi 12S Ultra also adds anti-glare lens coating, lens edge ink coating, cyclic olefin copolymer material, and infrared light filter with spin coating technology. Together, these features offer a clearer overall picture that is consistent across the lens.
In addition to the advanced optical design, Xiaomi 12S Series “co-engineered with Leica” also utilizes Leica imaging profiles, inheriting Leica’s century-old image aesthetic and reproducing Leica’s tone and aesthetics with the aid of cutting-edge algorithms. For the end user, this means access to two photographic styles: The “Leica Authentic Look” and “Leica Vibrant Look”, both offering enhanced creative freedom to the photographer.
To those of us who’ve read a photography press release or two, the first paragraph above can be summarized as “We stuck tech in this camera that was pretty common on compact cameras in 2005 or so” and the second can be summarized as “… and we created some filters that have been around in Hipstamatic since 2009, but these look kinda like Leica cameras look. Ignoring, of course, that the “Leica look” is heavily dependent on the films you put in the camera giant’s legendary cameras.
Press release sleight of hand aside, the cameras themselves do look impressive, and sticking Sony’s IMX989 1-inch sensors in smartphones is a hell of a feat to pull off, both from an engineering point of view and as a commitment to photography from the smartphone maker.
To use a corollary: Have you ever heard of the A-10 fighter plane? Usually referred to as the Warthog, it was essentially a ridiculously large machine gun firing depleted uranium rounds, and they built a plane around it to be able to blow up tanks. That’s the image this smartphone conjures for me; this isn’t the kind of optics you just slap into a phone at the last minute because the product folks thought it was a good idea.
The sensors, mated with high-quality glass, promise exceptional low-light photography capabilities. Pair that with some smart computational photography skills, and a 10-bit RAW format, and you’re starting to talk about some truly advanced camera tech indeed. These phones could very well be the final nail in the low-end compact camera category that’s been at death’s door for so long.
Wild, for the photography buffs, is that we’re here talking about an SLR-challenging 50.3 megapixels of resolution and a 23mm-equivalent wide-angle lens. This is, as far as I’m aware, the most advanced set of lens/sensor combos of any smartphone on the market. Of course, megapixels aren’t everything.
The rest of the smartphone looks decent on paper as well — 67W high-speed charging, a large 4,860 mAh battery and smart battery management should keep you running for a while. The phone is powered by the all-new Snapdragon® 8+ Gen 1 Mobile Platform. The Xiaomi 12S Ultra is even equipped with a cooling pump that uses a capillary network to pump cooling liquid around and keep things from overheating and a 6.73” AMOLED color display.
The phones are currently only available in mainland China, with the Xiaomi 12S Ultra starting at around $900, the Xiaomi 12S Pro starting at around $700 and the Xiaomi 12S starting at $600. No word on if or when these will make it outside of the country’s borders.

As a mental health employee with a degree in medical science and psychology, I have had the opportunity to explore numerous platforms, and one that stands out is BetterHelp.}
t and choose to start to celebrate together with us we’re thrilled to be joined by Dr Courtney Tracy where she is most frequently understood throughout social media the reality physician Dr Courtney is a.
certified psychotherapist and scientific business owner as the CEO of exist centers psychological health treatment center concentrating on dealing with Millennial and gen Z people and as the Creator and host of the fact physician platforms Dr Courtney truly lives her purpose by producing spaces where individuals can find out the fact about how their body brain and mind work Dr Courtney thank you a lot for being on our inside session series to kick us off we ‘d love to become aware of what brought you to where you are today working within mental healthcare well thank you so much it really is an honor to be here and I believe that’s a truly terrific first concern due to the fact that what brought me to you know producing the platforms that I have online today and being called the fact physician was in fact in the beginning of 2019 when I went through something extremely difficult with my family as a therapist I believe I was waiting on my license number when what took place happened and I in fact spiraled quite intensely even as somebody who had you understand years of scientific experience my trauma and tension and overwhelm overtaken me and what I ended up doing was thinking of how.
I felt like I understood every therapist in my city and I didn’t know how I was going to get help and how I was going to have the ability to be a person and a certified professional therefore I actually relied on online treatment and this isn’t even you know purposefully to be a plug for for better assistance but I explored much of the online platforms and in fact you know subscribe to numerous of them so I had many therapists and I ended up utilizing much better help as a therapist back in 2019 and I felt much better I felt like I was improving and that remained in the summertime of 2019 and I began my Platforms in the fall of 2019 as the truth medical professional after I felt more steady and more capable and what I do is simply tell my fact about how it does not really I indicate it matters what you learn about the ability to look after yourself however however you’re still just a human.
being everybody is and we can all get surpassed by things that are excessive so I knew life was too much maturing that’s why I became a therapist in the first place however but I understood that more individuals required to know that it’s okay to break down even when you’re an adult even when you think you must understand what to do sometimes in some cases you simply do not and you have to connect for help thank you as a person to an individual for bringing a lot of yourself into the work that you’re doing it is difficult to get rid of obstacles trouble some kind of Crisis especially in our households and after that to turn that around and end up being a very impactful helpful person to so many others that are experiencing something similar um truly good so actually value you doing that and um you know it seems like you had already set forward on this journey into the world of mental health something happened she shifted a direction a little bit to go beyond just dealing with customers individually and even as a certified expert I’m hearing that we can find out continue to discover things about things that we believe we understand um so I don’t know if this response would be various depending upon you know pre and post this scenario that you went through however when is the right time for someone to search for therapy you know I understand a lot of people out there are believing like well clearly if I can’t rise or if I’m having anxiety attack every day I might consider talking with somebody but what are some other things that somebody might think about in regards to the right time.
if there is such a thing that’s a fantastic concern and I absolutely believe that it would have a various response because you made a good point that often it’s obvious when we need to ask for aid when we really can’t get ourselves out of bed when we’re having panic attacks daily when our relationships are falling apart or we feel completely separated and at the same time I believe it’s important to understand that we live in a day and age where we aren’t actually provided the suggestions the tools the education that we need ahead of time to sort of prevent us from getting to those places and so yes it makes good sense to get therapy when things are really bad but at this moment it makes sense to get treatment since we should have to know how to prevent getting to those locations and that’s really essential too the relationship with a therapist and or just the healing process total offers education it provides preventative skills and preventative tools so that you don’t find yourself not able to rise and I believe that that’s you understand a few of the stigma relates a lot to individuals’s failure to see that that therapy can be handy in numerous methods not simply to solve problems but to prevent issues and I’m sure we’ll talk a bit more about that yeah you mentioned something that’s like so carefully associated with treatment now um in some good discussions and some still unfortunate which is stigma it’s still extremely stigmatized in a great deal of communities to consider doing something like this so I was wondering if you might you could speak about your experience.
thus far in the in the few years that you have actually been making such big moves here um about changing perceptions not just in this online space however in in your real life reality neighborhoods likewise um what is there to be said when it concerns changing understandings as it belongs to stigma that’s another great concern I ‘d resemble I’m going to say that each time you ask um yeah so much has actually shifted over the last 3 to four years and you understand I might say that these are my you understand anecdotal experiences as a clinician as somebody who went through what I went through in 2019 as a mental health material developer that exploded through the covid pandemic like there’s great deals of things to think about when we’re referencing a minimum of for me these last few or 4 years um and however I think what it actually boiled down to was that that Global shift as a result of the pandemic and everybody’s sort of being forced to introspect tore in towards themselves however likewise in their professions in their relationships and what is triggering my problems and and now these problems are inevitable if I currently had them and so I believe what took place was all of us we all felt a little lost and we were all trying to find language to express how we were feeling and over the last couple of years as we’ve seen on on some you understand article headlines treatment speak therapy talk became methods for people to communicate their pain and their suffering and their distress and so I believe that that added to a.
reduction in in seeking out psychological health help overall because it came it became more of a unifying conversation but I also believe and and certainly not to boast as I’m not the only one but I likewise believe that mental health content creators throughout these years have actually allowed people to one see that therapists aren’t you know just these old white guys with extremely you know specific views on the world and and yes that’s what that’s actually.

Hydroponic is a word that is derived from that Latin community, and it means water. Hydroponic gardening is the planting without using soil. There are several types of vertical gardens. One is where the plants float in water without any growing medium, and the other one is the planting of the vegetation on a medium which is not soil. This is one type of planting that is taking over the world.
That is because of this form of vertical garden mainly involves giving the plant what it needs and when it needs it. Even with this approach, you will find that it is not easy to give the plants the nutrients that it needs all the time. Though this is the case; it is much simpler with the hydroponics method as compared to planting the vegetation straight into the ground.
When you use the hydroponics, you will find that the plant is grown in a growing medium that is intact. The one thing that you should know is that with this method it will be effortlessly for the plants to absorb the required nutrients from the roots. When you do this, the plants will be able to absorb the nutrients using the little effort as compared of when the plants are absorbing directly from the soil.
When you grow two identical plants at the same time and one the right conditions, but one on the soil and the other one using hydraulic, you will almost see the difference. The water method offers better results and returns. It is no wonder that more and more people are becoming accustomed to the use of hydroponic form of planting. For more info about hydroponics, visit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroponics.
The most important thing when you want to plant is to ensure that the growing medium you will be using is suitable. A growing medium is the material in which one uses to plants the root of the plants. There are various forms of mediums which can be used to plant this vegetation the sand, coconut fiber, gravel, Rockwool, and sand. The plant will get all its nutrients from the nutrient solution which is the combination of water and the fertilizer. Thus, this makes it easy for you to be able to monitor the minerals that the plant gets.
The one thing that you should note is that the control of the pH is essential when you are doing any planting. In case you have a situation where the pH is changing, then the plants will not have an easy time absorbing the nutrients. Thus, this is why you need to ensure that you control the pH level.

Archery may be an interesting sport to watch but aiming the arrow and hitting a bullseye is no joke. Well, no worries! As ‘Stuff Made Here‘ Youtuber Shane Wighton, has created an “Auto-Aiming Bow” to do that job for you. With help of this terrifying invention, Shane was able to hit the target without even looking at it while aiming (sounds just like Robin Hood).
Mechanisms behind the technology of Auto-Aiming Bow
It includes a handheld robot to manage the positioning of the bow (left-right or up-down) by linear axis motors before aiming and another robot to hold and release the drawn string, to take care of the timing. Alongside, a series of OptiTrack motion capture cameras installed around the shop of Wighton are linked to trackable sensors on the auto-aiming bow and the target, including some software to check the camera’s perspective of the auto-aiming bow mechanism.
As reported by Gizmodo, initially, the bow Shane created was not as expected and was unable to hit the target. But after an array of experiments, Shane inquired about the problems of arrow deviation as the bow required the arrow to be fired around itself.
To eradicate the problem, he upgraded to a compound bow with a whisker biscuit, and ever since then, the arrows flew straight and hit the target with every shot. Next came the problem of the immense weight of the string and required more hardware to lighten it. Therefore, a Steadicam rig was attached to the bow, and all the flaws were suspended.
Like all Shane’s other cool inventions, this also took 100+ hours and surplus money investment. Though the invention is not ready for Olympics yet, as it lacks the mechanism to aim farther away targets, and the archer needs to aim higher to account for the arrow’s trajectory.

These days, the weather is so hot and sunny!
It would be nice to have an icy drink or icy dessert to cool down.
Those days, icy dessert would be ABC. But nowadays we have more choices, we called it ATAS ABC (because nicer environment, price also double)hehe…. But there’s a proper name to it…which is Kakigori or Ais Kepal Jepun. 🙂
“Kakigōri (かき氷) is a Japanese shaved ice dessert flavored with syrup and a sweetener. The origins of kakigōri date back to the 11th century, when blocks of ice saved during the colder months would be shaved and served with sweet syrup to Japanese aristocracy during the summer. Kakigōri became more accessible in the 19th century, when ice became more widely available to the public during the summertime. “
For Seremban folks, you can hoop over to MyKori Dessert Cafe for this Japanese shaved ice dessert. Located at Centrio Seremban 2 (opposite Mydin S2).
MyKori has been growing rapidly over the years since the first outlet at Puchong Jaya in year 2016. It has now over 60 outlets throughout Malaysia. (WOW! Amazing!) MyKori Dessert Cafe is a place suitable for young and old.
Types of desserts available here. Serving not just shaved ice, but also drinks, toast and Croissant Taiyaki (a unique Japanese pastry, a fish shaped snack, made of croissant with varied sweet and savoury fillings).
Their Kakogori comes in 2 sizes. Large and Mini. I chose mini because I wanted to try more flavors. The mini is ideal for 1-2 sharing.
Above are Mango Yogurt Kakigori (made from yogurt ice, mango puree, mango cubes) and Mont Mauve Kakigōri (Made with mix berry ice, fresh strawberries, blueberries & raspberry. Topped up with whipped cream and kuriaro rose powder.)
Red Melon Kakigori (RM26) only comes in one size. Too bad that they no longer serve in watermelon shell. Hence the serving looked smaller. (Made with milk ice, watermelon, nata de coco as well as lychee).
If you are a fruits person, the above choices are quite refreshing.
Left – Chocoreo Kakigori (Made with milk ice, real oreo biscuits, oreo crumbs and chocolate sauce). I don’t really fancy this one because not much taste, more like eating oreo biscuits with ice.
Right – Popcorn Kakigori (With milk ice, kuromitsu jelly, premium caramel popcorn as well as caramel toffee sauce).
The ice is quite fine and smooth.
Other than kakigori, I also tried the Chocolate Banana Toast (RM19)
Thick toast with generous chocolate sauce, topped with 2 scoops of ice cream and served with slices of bananas. For ice cream, I chose chocolate & Thai Tea flavor. Thai Tea flavor ice cream tasted weird. Regretted choosing that flavor. 😦
As for the toast, the bread texture was quite nice. Smooth and not dry.
Jet will be very happy whenever I mentioned coming here for dessert. Above are compiled in several visits. 😀 😀
Will try more flavors in future.
MyKori Dessert Cafe

*looks at the prices…faints* Once in a long while, o.k. lah! People with kids especially, give them a special treat. 😀

I found that icy desserts like these are overpriced, they are too expensive for me >_<
yalo…but i think still better than bubble tea.

Discovery of Novel and Highly Selective Inhibitors of Calpain for the Treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease: 2‑(3-Phenyl‑1H‑pyrazol-1-yl)-nicotinamides
datasetposted on 31.07.2017, 00:00 by Andreas Kling, Katja Jantos, Helmut Mack, Wilfried Hornberger, Karla Drescher, Volker Nimmrich, Ana Relo, Karsten Wicke, Charles W. Hutchins, Yanbin Lao, Kennan Marsh, Achim Moeller
Calpain overactivation has been implicated in a variety of pathological disorders including ischemia/reperfusion injury, cataract formation, and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Herein we describe our efforts leading to the identification of ketoamide-based 2-(3-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)nicotinamides as potent and reversible inhibitors of calpain with high selectivity versus related cysteine protease cathepsins, other proteases, and receptors. Broad efficacy in a set of preclinical models relevant to AD suggests that inhibition of calpain represents an attractive approach with potential benefit for the treatment of AD.

IT has been the drink of choice for the British for more than 400 years, but that could change as the cost of tea is set to soar.
Experts are warning that droughts in tea-producing countries have caused worldwide supply shortages and higher auction prices.
The droughts in India, Kenya and Sri Lanka have caused crop failures, while tea production in East Africa has fallen by 10%.
The problems have been compounded by increased demand from India and China and the collapse in sterling, making tea more expensive for British importers who pay in dollars
The Grocer magazine has calculated that Kenyan tea costs 21% more than it did this time last year, while Sri Lankan tea is up by 25%.
And the magazine has warned that the tea situation in Kenya and Sri Lanka is likely to get worse.
High-quality teas are likely to bear the brunt of price increases and experts have warned that supermarket discounts on everyday tea may not continue.
Kasim Ali, owner of the recently-opened Waterloo Gardens Teahouse in Cardiff, which prides itself on offering the finest teas from around the world, said high-end teas had been priced at £200 a kilo, compared with £80 a kilo a year ago.
“High quality teas are always going to be expensive. Even average quality teas have increased by 70%,” said Mr Ali, who has just returned from the World Tea Expo in Las Vegas.
“We are fairly new and we will try to absorb some of the increase so that people don’t turn to coffee.”
And William Griffiths, manager of the Angel Hotel in Abergavenny, which is a popular destination for afternoon tea, said he believes that a price increase would come later in the year.
“We try very hard to hold prices as much as we can. A pot of loose leaf tea for one is £2.60, which is enough for four cups,” he said.
An average of 165 million cups of tea are drunk in Britain every day, and it is still the most popular hot drink in the country, more than 400 years after it was first introduced. Unilever, which makes PG Tips and Scottish Blend tea, said it would be raising the price it charges retailers by between 10% and 15% this month – equivalent to an extra 50p on a box of 160 tea bags.
But Bill Gorman, executive chairman of the United Kingdom Tea Council, said tea still represents good value and that a price increase is not necessarily bad news.
“If you look back to 1999, 80 tea bags were £1.89. In February this year it was up to £1.97 – in 10 years the price of a box of tea bags has risen by just 8p,” he said.
“If prices go up it is a good thing because the farmers who produce tea have actually been experiencing a drop in profits over the past 10 years.
“A modest increase is good for the farmers.”
Individual supermarkets are reluctant to divulge the strategies they may use to keep prices down.
But a spokesman for the British Retail Consortium, which represents the major retailers in the UK, said: “The UK grocery market is very competitive, even more so now that the recession means that people are hard pressed.
“Many retailers will be very reluctant to pass on any cost increases to the customer if they can possibly avoid it.
“They will try as much as possible to take the hit on their margins.”

National Nutrition Month: Ensuring the Quality of Foodservice Distribution
Plan to make nutritious meals by using direct-to-consumer products.
March is National Nutrition Month®, highlighting the importance of making informed decisions about your diet, meal planning, and staying physically active. As a food logistics company, we have noticed a HUGE increase in the want for our e-commerce friends’ products, along with healthy frozen food products and produce options.
National Nutrition Month® goes hand in hand for us with National Frozen Food Month. We are proud to be a company that can ensure our communities receive fresh, flavorful, and healthy food options. We have noticed more companies switching to produce healthier frozen food options to meet the demand for them from consumers, and more direct-to-consumer options are actively available.
As a trusted 3PL, we can ensure consumers receive high-quality, affordable, and fresh meals through our advanced storing, procuring, transportation, and quality handling services for our partner’s products. Our temperature-controlled warehouses and frozen food transportation allow us to offer solutions to manage frozen food and produce items efficiently for our partners by creating custom solutions to match and exceed nearly any need they may have.

To ensure all of our frozen foods, refrigerated and frozen produce, and e-commerce frozen products remain safe, we take many precautionary measures by keeping our Team, technology, dedicated fleet, and facility design ahead of the curve.
“I’ve lost 60 pounds during the pandemic by purchasing and preparing lower-calorie options, organic when available versus dining out. If the country truly has put on the “COVID 19″ in pounds, I would expect that many consumers will use the return to normalcy as an opportunity to purchase organic, lower-calorie options to work off those extra pounds,” Kevin Tackett, Regional Sales Manager.
Health and nutrition have become a significant focus for many Americans during the pandemic and continue to move in the direction of lifestyle changes. “54% of all consumers, and 63% of those 50+, care more about the healthfulness of their food and beverage choices in 2020 than did in 2010; healthfulness is the biggest mover, more so than taste and price,” Phil Lempert, Forbes Contributor.

COLUMBIA — The smell of gunpowder was pervasive. Sporadic gunshots resonated, and paper targets quivered from the impact. Shell casings hit the floor with a ping. The students patched the bullet holes with scraps of tape and sent the targets back into the fray, seven yards away.
A man walked through the gun range's door, pulling off his fluorescent-yellow headphones and safety glasses. "I think I scared him to death," he joked, referring to the paper figure he'd shot 140 times.
The controversy over whether concealed carry personal information can be shared erupted last week in the Misouri General Assembly. Several Republican lawmakers asserted that the state had turned over data on permits to the federal government.
Was concealed carried permit holders' information shared?
The Missouri State Highway Patrol sent lists of concealed carried permit holders' names to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the U.S. Social Security Administration, but both federal agencies deny requesting it.
Who can obtain information about concealed carry permit holders in Missouri?
Records of permits are closed to the public under the Missouri concealed carry law. According to the Missouri Department of Revenue's website, specific information regarding concealed carry permits is entrusted only to law enforcement personnel.
Boone County Sheriff's Department Major Tom Reddin said the department would provide another law enforcement agency information about an individual if there was a request, but that the department would seek legal counsel before submitting a list of concealed carry files to another criminal justice agency.
How does a person get a concealed carry permit?
- The applicant fills out a registration form with the organization that offers the class and pays course costs.
- The applicant takes the paper signed by the instructor to a sheriff's department for a background check. This costs $92.50 at the Boone County Sheriff's Department. Renewal is $50 every three years. The Hallsville and Ashland police departments also process concealed carry applications.
- The applicant must get fingerprinted and wait for the results of the background check. State law requires that an answer must be given to the applicant within 45 days of applying.
Does a concealed carry permit holder have to reveal that information on his or her driver's license?
No. Permit holders can choose whether to print their endorsement on their driver's license or on a nondriver's photo ID.
The students were taking a shooting class required for those seeking to carry a concealed gun. They are part of a trend in which more Boone County residents are getting concealed carry permits.
Between January and March of 2013, the number of new concealed carry permits issued through the Boone County Sheriff's Department more than doubled from this time last year. The number has risen each year since 2007, when Missouri's concealed carry law went into effect.
Target Masters in Columbia offers three courses a month, each lasting eight hours. The Sunday class sign-up sheets are booked until June, concealed carry instructor Jim Hill said. Twenty people showed up for class on April 14, each paying at least $100 — more if they had to rent guns or buy ammunition.
Many of the students expressed a distrust of the federal government, which they expected to pass stricter gun legislation. The clash between the federal government pushing firearm restrictions and state lawmakers asserting residents' gun rights left many uncertain of where gun laws will end up.
“That’s why there’s this mass onslaught of hoarding ammo and guns because (people are) afraid that in the political mindset, (the government is) going to ban something,” Hill said.
But for the moment, guns have gained a reprieve. The U.S. Senate defeated a measure calling for stricter background checks for gun buyers and an assault weapons ban on Wednesday, while the Missouri House approved legislation Thursday that would bar the enforcement of federal gun laws in Missouri.
Hill has taught concealed carry classes since 2007. He said about 75 percent of the applicants for concealed carry at Target Masters are Boone County residents. Since the Randolph County homicide and shootings earlier this year, several residents have come to talk to employees about their fears of crime close to home, he said.
“It’s public safety,” firearms instructor John Waldschlager said. “It’s their gun rights, and they’re taking personal responsibility for their safety and the safety of their loved ones. You can’t carry a cop about with you.”
Crime in Columbia has gone down in the past few years, according to data provided by the Columbia Police Department for the FBI’s annual Uniform Crime Reports. A project by the Annenberg Public Policy Center reported that while gun murders and aggravated assaults are down in the U.S., gun suicides and nonfatal gun injuries are up.
Ownership and manufacturing of firearms have also increased, according to the Annenberg project.
It isn't clear whether more people owning guns and carrying concealed guns decreases gun-related crimes.
Many applicants were willing to talk about their personal and political reasons for taking the course but most declined to give their names, either because they were uncomfortable with others knowing they were carrying or because they feared what their employers would think.
A 24-year-old MU student in the class, who declined to give his name, said he decided in December to get the permit after his mother was murdered a month earlier. He lives in Boone County, but the crime occurred out of the county.
“The system has failed my mom quite a bit,” he said. “I enjoy the rights I have. I have the means to protect myself.”
The student said he’s been around guns all of his life. He grew up hunting and shot his first gun at age 6. Residents are encouraged to get certified on their own guns, so he brought his .357 caliber Magnum Smith & Wesson 686 .
The student has two older brothers, one of whom already has his permit to carry a concealed weapon, and the other brother is planning to get his.
Not everyone who takes the course and passes decides to go through with getting the permit. A school teacher from Cooper County says she isn't sure whether she’ll get a permit after the class. She took the course with her sister and a friend.
She and her husband lived on a farm for several years, and, though she’s used to being around guns, she’s not as familiar with handguns. She brought her own .22-caliber Ruger and a revolver.
She said the course was a good experience. “I wanted to learn more about (guns),” she said. “I think too many people are fearful of things they don’t understand. It causes you to stop learning.”
Shooting and working with firearms has always been a passion for Nathan Rippeto. He just received his Federal Firearms License so he can make his living as a gunsmith. It's the main reason he’s applying for a permit.
“I need to be able to protect myself, my family and other people’s investments and be seen as a responsible shooter,” he said.
He said his new business justifies the expense of concealed carry. He brought along his .45-caliber Rock Island 1911 and a .38-caliber Special.
The demographics of people who take the course may be more diverse in terms of age and occupation than people think, Hill said.
There's no typical age when people decide to apply for concealed carry. Some people under age 21 come in to Target Masters to register and take the course so they can register for a permit at the sheriff’s office on their birthday. Hill has taught people as old as 89 and many people between ages 50 and 70.
Realtors and attorneys tend to be among those seeking the permit. Hill said many health care providers, including drug representatives, nurses and doctors, take the course because their facilities hold drugs that may lure someone to commit a crime. Many soldiers and their families apply, too.
“The people that come to take the class are probably of a little bit better quality than you would imagine,” Hill said. “They’re from all walks of life, but they’re very proper, very well-educated.”
The class measures shooting and gun-handling skills and the attitude people have in the class to make sure applicants are suitable to carry on the street.
Hill said he expects the number of applications to stay high for a while.
"As long as Washington keeps hounding, that's going to be a driver in itself," he said. "People are going to be trying to get that card in their wallet, and the more numbers there are out there that have them, the harder it's going to be for them to legislate it."
The number of people who applied for conceal and carry permits through law enforcement agencies in Boone County, Hallsville and Ashland increased from 2011 to 2012. Graphic by Ninh Pham

Kim Kardashian Swears Off Carbs, Then Goes to an Italian Restaurant
Courtesy Kim Kardashian
She might be blowing up her social media feeds with concerns about losing the last of her postpartum weight, but that didn’t stop Kim Kardashian from going with her sister Kylie Jenner to the pasta temple La Scala Beverly Hills Tuesday night.
The sisters, who were joined by reality TV producer Carla Dibello and pal Shamari Maurice, looked cozy in their banquette with what appears to be two soups and two pasta dishes (and seemingly no alcohol in sight).
“Ughhhh @kyliejenner is trying to make me eat carbs!” Kim captioned the above shot, after posting her strict diet plan on Twitter earlier in the day.
La Scala is something of a Kardashian hangout: Kim’s been a frequent patron (and even stopped by after her bridal shower), and Kris Jenner has said it’s as one of her go-to spots in Los Angeles. One of its most famous dishes is the chopped salad, which they’ve been serving to Hollywood glitterati long before the grab-and-go lunch chains got into the act. We can’t help but wonder if that was also part of Kim’s order?
But despite her initial gripe about her little sister, the reality star did post this sweet shot from the meal, captioning it “#SissyLove.” Maybe some pasta improved her mood?
Now, all this talk about Italian food is making us hungry, so we’re off to make ourselves a delightfully high-carb lunch.
