Fifteen Scots scored en route to a 103-45 Maryville College men's basketball victory over Johnson University on Monday evening in MC's Boydson Baird Gymnasium.
Head Coach Randy Lambert had the opportunity to see his squad's depth in action and watch as his Scots dominate on the boards, out rebounding Johnson 56-28.
Maryville jumped to a 53-19 halftime lead on 55% shooting while Johnson hit only 8-of-25 shots.
The Scots finished hitting 51% from the floor while holding their NCCAA opponent to a 30% shooting night.
Johnson University (0-9) was paced by Josiah Rechenbach's 15 points. He was 6-for-8 from the field including a 3-for-4 effort from beyond the arc. Kelechi Ibe added 10 points and seven points in the paint.
Maryville (2-0) had five players post double digits in scoring. Oscar Butler was 7-for-12 and finished with a game-high 16 points. Joey Bodewig and Jethro Griffin each poured in 13 points while Craig Raye was 5-for-8 from the floor for a dozen points. Christian Ford added 10 points, four rebounds, five assists and a steal from his point guard position. Jose Agosto led MC on the boards with seven rebounds. Bodewig and Griffin each added six rebounds.
The Scots will now look to challenge key NCAA South Region opponents Oglethorpe and Emory in a weekend tournament next Saturday in Atlanta. USA South action begins for the Scots Saturday, December when MC welcomes Christopher Newport University to Randy Lambert Court.

When people ask me what my favourite colour is, I don’t actually say shiny. I know, its a shock.

One of the first things I’ll put in my house when I own one is a large pendant light. I love them. They dress up the space in a room that no rug, lamp or piece of art can cover. I cant wait to have an oversized, attention stealing pendant over the dining table. Or low hanging … Continue reading

WORCESTER, Mass. – A Massachusetts father who severely beat and abused his 7-year-old son has been sentenced to up to five years in prison.
Randall Lints, of Hardwick, was sentenced Thursday in Superior Court in Worcester.
The Telegram & Gazette reports the 28-year-old Lints received a sentence of four to five years in state prison after pleading guilty to assault and battery on a child and two related counts.
His girlfriend is awaiting trial on similar charges.
Officials say Lints' son was found unresponsive in his father's apartment in July 2015 suffering from severe bruising and malnourishment. Investigators say the boy weighed 38 pounds.
The boy remains in state custody after several hospitalizations.

The Glendale City Council made it rain on Adrian Ross’ parade, as the former Cincinnati Bengal couldn’t get a liquor license to hold a Super Bowl party at the host city’s only strip club.
The ARIZONA REPUBLIC reports that Ross was hoping to get some NFL folks to show up at Pink Caberet for nine days of pregame partying. But the council denied his request to get a special-event liquor license for the nude club. Arizona state regulations don’t allow alcohol at full nudie bars.
Without the booze, the party appears to be a bust. Worst of all, it’s the children who’ll suffer.

Apollo Pharmacy has been providing healthcare products and medicines for more than 32 years now. It has a reputation for selling 100% genuine healthcare essentials. Explore a wide range of cold and cough medicines online on the app and get them instantly without any hassle.
A common cold or cough is a viral infection and a contagious condition of the upper respiratory tract, including nose and throat. The typical cold and cough have no permanent treatment and might persist anywhere from 7 to 10 days.
When a foreign particle irritates your airways or throat, your body responds with a cough. Nerves are stimulated by irritation, which sends a message to your brain.
There are different types of coughs, each with its own set of reasons and symptoms to watch out for:
You can browse our broad collection of cold and cough treatments on the Apollo 24|7 app or website. Order cough drops, lozenges, vapour rubs, cough syrups, and other healthcare supplies online and have them delivered to your door instantly.
It usually appears one to three days later and varies from person to person. Most people catch a common cold or flu either in winter or spring; however, there are possibilities of catching a cold at any time of the year. Knowing the signs or symptoms of a cold or cough beforehand may help you treat your health condition.
Follow these strategies to reduce your chances of having a cold or cough:
To keep your home free of germs, clean it regularly. After being touched by a sick person, bacteria can persist on surfaces for several hours.
When it comes to virus protection, nothing beats soap and water. Wash your hands thoroughly or use a hand sanitiser to kill the germs. You can easily browse the best hand sanitisers online at the Apollo 24|7 app or website.
Even while a common cold is rarely hazardous, it becomes difficult for a person suffering from a cold to complete daily duties. Other than the change in season, a variety of causes might induce coughing and cold. Coughing is a most common reflex response that occurs when a foreign object enters your airways.
According to Ayurveda, an imbalance in any of the doshas can cause illness. Nasal congestion and cough are caused by an excess of Kapha and Pitta in the body.
Here are some Ayurveda treatments to help you in dealing with your cold or cough:
Tulsi is known as The Queen of Herbs in Ayurveda. Tulsi leaves enhance your ability to combat the common cold and cough.
Honey's antimicrobial properties make honey not only tasty but also help to ease a sore throat. It is an effective cough suppressant.
Mulethi, also known as Licorice or Sweet Wood, is an Ayurvedic herb that can help with coughing. Sore throats, coughs, and excessive mucus production in the airways can all benefit from mulethi powder.
Pippali is a medicinal herb that can treat coughs and colds. It also helps to improve headaches and congestion caused by the common cold.
Dry ginger, commonly known as sonth, is a crucial ingredient in herbal cough syrups. Sonth, when combined with honey, is a soothing cough and cold remedy.

Flabby skin and stretch marks - pregnancy takes its toll on your body, as new mum Amanda Hamilton knows all too well. The nutritionist of 10 years and presenter of BBC2's Sunday morning show Something For The Weekend gave birth to her second child, son Ruaridh, recently.
Already mum to Jana, five, it was after Ruaridh's birth that Amanda felt she really had to whip herself into shape.
"Being a new mum is difficult and while we shouldn't pressure ourselves to lose weight post-pregnancy, it's hard struggling to shift the pounds. And it's not made any easier with all the pictures of celebrity mums who just seem to ping back into shape the minute they've given birth!" explains Amanda, 35, who recently set up BabyToo BootCamp, where experts help mums regain their pre-baby figures.
"After giving birth to both my kids I was amazed by how little help there was for normal mums like me, so I decided to do something about it."
And indeed she has. Despite putting on 2½st while pregnant, Amanda, who's 5ft 7in, managed to get her fantastic figure back in just eight weeks.
"I used my local gym and devised my own diet to help me try and get back to my best," she says.
"It's taken motivation and dedication, but I feel absolutely brilliant!"
Here, Amanda reveals the exclusive eating plan that's got her looking hot today. First, make sure you've had your six-week post-natal check-up, then combine this with gentle exercise and say bye-bye to your baby weight too.
BYE-BYE BABY-BUMP RULES
The BootCamp diet is low in fat but rich in complex carbs, protein, dairy, fruit and veg.
1 Ban sugar Say goodbye to sugary cereals, white bread and sweets. They provide a quick rush, then an energy-slumping low.
2 Be prepared Get friends and family to bring you healthy snacks like fruit rather than chocolates, so you don't binge on bad stuff.
3 Treat yourself The early weeks of motherhood aren't easy, so be nice to yourself. My treats are a few squares of darkchocolate, a decaf cappuccino or a small glass of wine.
4 Don't scrimp! Fill up on fruit and vegetables. Unless stated, dairy products can all be full-fat.
5 Stop stressing over calories There's no need to count calories on my plan. Each day contains 1,600 (plus take 400 more in snacks if you're breastfeeding) which is the perfect amount for new mums to lose weight sensibly.
Have a breakfast, lunch, dinner and two snacks every day for eight weeks. You should also drink 2 litres of water every day.
* Porridge made with oats and skimmed milk or water, ½ chopped banana, plus honey to sweeten.
* 2 scrambled or boiled eggs with 2 slices of wholemeal toast thinly spread with butter and 1tsp tomato sauce.
* Fresh, chopped fruit topped with natural yoghurt.
* A grilled mackerel fillet with 2 grilled tomatoes, a handful of grilled mushrooms, and a slice of wholemeal toast thinly spread with butter.
* Baked sweet potato with a tin of tuna, chopped cucumber and natural yoghurt to taste.
* 4 oatcakes with low-fat soft cheese or Cheddar, a boiled egg and natural yoghurt.
* Greek salad in pitta pockets. Salad made from chopped fresh tomatoes, ¼ red onion, ½ cucumber, ½ green or red pepper, 4oz cubed feta cheese and 8 olives. Add lemon juice and black pepper to taste and stuff into 2 toasted wholemeal pittas.
* Spicy chicken ratatouille. Heat a little olive oil and stir-fry 1 diced chicken breast with ½ onion, 1 sliced garlic clove and 1 red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped. Add lots of fresh veg, a tin of chopped tomatoes and a splash of Worcester sauce.
* Baked sesame chicken with vegetables. Slice 1 chicken breast (or fish or tofu) into strips and marinade in low-salt soy sauce and honey. Roll in sesame seeds and bake in a 180°C/350°F/gas mark 4 oven for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, stir-fry vegetables in low-salt soy sauce and ginger. Serve together.
* Thai green chicken curry (serves 2). Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a hot wok. Add 1tsp of Thai green curry paste, 2 cubed chicken breasts, a lemongrass stalk and a lime leaf and cook for 4 minutes. Add 150ml reduced-fat coconut milk and 1 large chopped aubergine. Simmer until tender. Stir in 1tsp of Thai fish sauce (optional) and serve.
* Baked fish with rosemary roasted vegetables. Place a selection of chopped veg on a baking tray, drizzle with 1tsp olive oil and add a sprig of fresh rosemary. Bake for 10 minutes at 180°C/350°F/gas mark 4. Place the fish (salmon, sardines or mackerel) on top with a lemon slice and cook for a further 10-15 minutes.
* One boiled egg.
* 2 pieces of seasonal fruit.
* 2 oatcakes and sugar-free jam.
* 2oz reduced-fat cheese with ½ chopped apple.
* Small handful of cashew nuts and ½ banana.
TAKE IT EASY
* Don't do any strenuous exercise for the first six weeks. Once you've been given the all-clear by your midwife or GP, start a gentle exercise routine. Aim for a 15-30-minute brisk walk a day.
* Start pelvic floor exercises as soon as you feel ready. Do them wherever and whenever.
* Strap 2kg leg weights on your ankles while walking round the house to tone thighs.
* Remember, breastfeeding mothers must not consume less than 2,000 calories a day*.

A new generation of the Internet is increasingly present in our lives. Since Tim Berners-Lee created the world wide web in 1989 , it has not stopped growing along with the development of new technologies. The web was created with the objective that groups of scientists and researchers could share information , articles and documents. Once the web was created, it began to spread to the rest of the population and was no longer exclusive to scientists. We have gone from web 1.0, to 2.0 and to which we are approaching and from which we wonder what web 3.0 is . Each of them has its characteristics, its advantages and disadvantages that have evolved. They have done it hand in hand with society and the development of other technologies. We are sure that web 3.0 will give a lot to talk about in the coming years, which is why we bring you this post where we talk about what web 3.0 is, what its characteristics are and the differences with the current web 2.0.
What is web 3.0
To understand what web 3.0 is, you have to talk about blockchain, internet of things, voice recognition or artificial intelligence . These are just some of the aspects that are already influencing the course from web 2.0 to web 3.0. Web 3.0 is a new generation of Internet that will influence web pages, applications and all kinds of devices that can connect to the Internet. This will allow to improve speed, connectivity or accessibility . Although the technologies mentioned above are already in many situations of our day to day, the change from web 2.0 to 3.0 can be a long process that we will not see completed for a few years. In this new version of the web , the user becomes more of a protagonist than ever, allowing greater connectivity between devices and people, giving them greater control over their data and information . The personalization of Internet services is key when it comes to understanding what web 3.0 is. More and more, services and products tend to be more personalized and adapted to what users need, which is why web 3.0 will allow greater customization.
Web 3.0 Features
Web 3.0 was born with the advancement of artificial intelligence, voice recognition, virtual assistants and chatbots, among others. For this reason, connectivity and the promotion of device intelligence is linked to this new generation of Internet services that promises to be the future. In addition, another of the great characteristics of web 3.0 is decentralization . This is done to create better experiences for users and that these are more personalized and adjusted to what they need. With the creation of web 1.0, the pages were static and the users were passive subjects where their main role was to read articles, websites and search for information. Then, with web 2.0, the role of users changes and they become active subjects that interact with the sites thanks in part to the new smart mobile devices. With this new generation, it is intended to give a new change to the role of users and thus create new forms of interaction where users continue to be the protagonists. As the technological world advances, vulnerabilities and insecurities in relation to people’s data and private information increase. This is why web 3.0 wants to be more secure thanks, for example, to the use of blockchain and cloud storage. Web 3.0 focuses on the importance of data and its connection tooffer better services adapted to what people need and expect.

The Nissan R180 and possibly even the R200 should bolt right in. I have some links to pages that list the various Nissan diff ratios.
Another possibility is to run taller wheels/tires. Not exactly easy, but doable.
BTW, I have a '71 510 with an z20+5speed, R180, and corvair rims. fun...

Anyway, as said above, I'm not sure you'd gain much by turning the engine significantly slower. They're kind of gutless down low, and you'd have to really be lugging it to keep the speed up. In addition to using more gas, that's torture on bearings.
You've done a full tuneup, right? Plugs/wires/cap/rotor/O2 sensor?

I dont know why he does so welll but I am happy he does...But I still wouldnt complain getting 31mpg
Posted 26 April 2005 - 03:38 PM
This may be different for different models, but I've seen warnings elsewhere that for the GL series like my 1988 turbo, higher tire pressure will wear out the middle of the tires fast, and to stay with the factory specified (which I think is 26 -- but don't trust my memory, I don't!).
Now I've only had the 1988 GL turbo for, what, three weeks now -- 240k miles on the body, 60k miles on a swapped engine -- and made one long trip with it.
About 200 miles on the freeway, 30 on 2-lane pavement, and maybe 50 on steep gravel Forest Service mountain roads in mostly 4wd low gear.
21 m.p.g. so far overall. Not what I"d hoped -- but it's back in the local Berkeley shop for a Check Engine (34, EGR solenoid) light that has persisted through three different mechanics' attempts to solve it. Makes me suspect something else is wrong in there.
I'm very glad to see the thread started, I'd been thinking I really wanted to know what kind of mileage, RPMs, tire pressure etc. others report here.

The global lockdown to contain the spread of COVID-19 has enabled innovative ways for people to stay connected, for political discussions to continue and for art to be shared. In this series, Palestine Film Institute (PFI), an upcoming national body “to support film productions from and for Palestine”, is streaming exciting and rich cinema that engages us and tells us stories in the voice of Palestinians. After having streamed the hilarious and evocative Wanted 18, the haunting Ghost Hunting and other films, last week the platform streamed Hany Abu-Assad's Omar (2013).
Like Abu-Assad's 2005 film Paradise Now, Omar also delves deep into the moral and psychic worlds of Palestinians living under Israeli occupation. The speed of the plot and the accompanying growing complexities ensure that you are always on the edge of your seat watching it. Omar, the eponymous lead character, is a young baker in a West Bank town whose everyday life intersects with and is ruptured by the Israeli occupation — just like everybody else. He has to scale and jump off the apartheid wall, which snakes across the occupied West Bank tearing apart towns and villages, schools and homes, to meet his childhood friends and girlfriend. This everyday act is filled with the danger of being caught by Israeli patrols. Tired of daily humiliations, Omar and his friends decide to attack an Israeli military camp and shoot dead a soldier. Omar is captured and imprisoned, and faces the tough choice between betraying his friends or facing a sentence of 90 years. What follows is a tense series of events driven by paranoia, mistrust, betrayal and relentless hope until there is none left.
One cannot miss the sense of suffocation the film evokes. Almost everything is happening indoors, in the shadows of walls or there are sequences of chasing and hiding. Secrets travel and every detail of Omar's life is exposed due to relentless surveillance. The figure of the informer or the collaborator is a leitmotif, with everyone trying to gauge if the other is one. Occupation breaks people in this way, by planting constant doubt and paranoia- the sense of being watched, the possibility of being betrayed, and in the process being left embittered. Occupation eekes out compromises from everyone and through that fractures the sense of self. Even as Omar survives these assaults on his physical and psychic self, ultimately he is aware of the fact that it is the occupation that is responsible for tearing apart their land and their lives.
Palestine Film Institute is screening Rashid Masharawi's Laila's Birthday this week.

Shame, Tribes and Dispersion
A few of the circles of the interwebs that I frequent have been making a big deal about online mobs and public shaming. I have no doubt that Twitter mobs are a horrendous thing, but shifting the blame to primordial instincts is missing the point. Angry online mobs exist because the proper channels to redress wrongs are broken.
The first article to enter the discussion is a libertarian complaining she wasn’t protected by government regulation. Womp. Womp.
Looking at her case — an ex-boyfriend went off on a personal tirade on CSPAN about her:
- Had CSPAN exercised what should have been obvious editorial oversight, the segment never should have been aired. That this wasn’t live is even more baffling.
- The right to be forgotten would have made the video disappear from searches, largely mitigating the effects of its original publication.
- Stronger libel laws in the US — especially holding Facebook and Google accountable for content they host and profit off of, would get rid of the majority of cruft that’s nothing more than gossip.
So we’re left with a libertarian whining about being the victim of the US’s laissez-fair capitalism. Still, there’s more to the story. The person in question is a semi-public figure, who works in the media / think tank / busybody / do-nothing class.
She actually ought to be held accountable for her views. In this instance, she believes people in one of the richest societies in human history ought to die from treatable diseases because of their class background. This is an important opinion to consider if someone’s looking to hire you as a journalist or a think tank seat warmer.
When you start sorting through the anti-online shaming stuff, let’s call it the ‘Be Best’ movement, a good chunk of it is people with odious views that are annoyed at being held accountable for having odious views. In the case of public figures — they’re in my thoughts and prayers.
The failure of formal justice mechanisms
Angry mobs form when enough people feel that justice isn’t being served through formal channels. Had HR departments properly handled sexual harassment complaints, there would be no Me Too movement.
That’s not to say that every mob is right on some level. Quite the contrary, many shaming movements are agitating for non-sensical ideas. Nonetheless, online outrage porn is the weapon of last resort for the weak. Attacking the weapon is ignoring the entire power imbalance that causes otherwise rational people to resort to mob e-violence.
The Kavanaugh saga shows where both sides missed the real point. Theatrics and outrage were the last resort for the majority of Americans, who didn’t vote for man who appointed Kavanaugh nor for the senators that voted to confirm him — who also lost the popular vote by a large margin. In the era of minority rule, outrage is the easy solution.
In no way do I use this to excuse the personal damage done by online shaming, especially guilty until proven innocent non-public figures. Nonetheless, I’m not willing to take ‘Be Best’ types at face value. It’s disingenuous to whine about online shaming and privacy while blocking action on the issues that have led to its proliferation.
The Lulz won’t set you free
Motivation is the difference between a social movement and outrage porn. I don’t care whether some washed up celebrity used the n-word in a private conversation. Making an issue out of this is not likely to advance equality.
The dark rabbit holes of the internet have a thing for lurid, career-ending gory. There’s nothing redeeming there, even if the cause is ‘right’.
This shouldn’t be a shield for public figures to hide behind. If you are a politician, you don’t get to absolve yourself of responsibility for reprehensible actions by crying internet mob. George Bush should never get a second’s respite from the millions of deaths he caused. Paul Ryan deserves nothing but public scorn for stealing from the poor and giving to rich.
That’s why I’m hesitant to jump all in on the no-shaming bandwagon. Let’s be careful of stripping away the only meaningful protest that many people have left.
Of tribes and culture wars
A much better and more scientific read is Memetic Tribes and Culture War 2.0. It’s worth taking the time to read through the whole thing.
I don’t have much to add to any of this, although I agree with the general idea of avoiding outrage journalism and social media.
The left is still disorganized
Going into 2020, the Left is little better off than a rag-tag band of rebels that fit inside the Millennium Falcon. For it’s own sake, the Left has got to get the online outrage machine under control.
For instance, Louis C.K. is apparently back and the outrage is already there. The whole point of comedy is that it has to sometimes miss the mark, push the envelope too far and go somewhere uncomfortable. Of all the issues facing society, off color jokes shouldn’t be making my news feed.
If we get through the next wave of authoritarianism without boiling the oceans and nuclear war, I’m not sure the SJWs will have left us with much a culture to enjoy anyway.

Portable instrumentation EV-1 is very useful for balancing on the field, as stroboscopic tachometer and as vibrometer.
Therefore it can measure the total vibration within 10 and 1000 Hz when used as vibrometer and the vibration at the set frequency when use as balancing machine. Furthermore it can measure the RPM and the unbalance angular position of a rotating part with the aid of a stroboscopic lamp. Scale selection is automatic.
The instrument is supplied in a hand carried case.

Concrete jungle where dreams are made of…
The Of Dreamers and Dancers story technically began two years ago when I returned home inspired from two weeks in New York City but really it is a dream that I have been subconciously working towards my whole life.
I have always been a passionately creative person and, as a trained graphic designer, I thought I was creatively heading down the right path. My speciality is branding and, whilst content doing this, there was always a part of me that yearned for something to call my own.
With the support and encouragement of my friends and family I channelled my ideas. Using my multi-faceted design experience (I dabble…a lot), overactive imagination and sense of style, I started to turn my dreams into a reality and thus, Of Dreamers and Dancers was born.
The idea was the easy part and whilst bringing these designs to life was not so straightforward, my passion to this product kept me going. I am now so thrilled to be able to share Of Dreamers and Dancers with you.
So when they say it’s all in a name, in this case, it’s true.

I was commissioned to help make quilts for gifts, my friend Deb and I made five total. This was the family quilt. We were giving all the family members likes and we designed the quilt around that. Once it was designed Deb pieced it and I quilted it. I quilted several scriptures in and the names of the family members.

According to our report earlier this month, Hyundai’s upcoming micro-SUV (codenamed AX1) will be named Casper. Ahead of the model’s upcoming entry into production in September, we have some new details about its engines. Korea will be the first emerging market to sell Casper and other countries like India will follow.
The Hyundai Casper is said to have two engine choices in Korea: a 1.0-litre naturally aspirated engine and a 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine. It will be paired with a four-speed automatic transmission as standard and the naturally aspirated engine will produce 76ps. Meanwhile, the turbocharged 100hp engine, originally developed for the Venue in India, will generate 100ps. Additionally, it will be equipped with a 4-speed automatic transmission.
Hyundai has yet to announce which engine options will be available with the Casper in India. Rather than use the 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine for all models, Hyundai may opt to use the four-cylinder 1.2-litre engine from the Nios or the three-cylinder 1.1-litre engine from the Santro to keeps the costs under control. Tata’s upcoming HBX micro-SUV, driving on petrol, will be a threat to Casper in India. In terms of transmission options, there will certainly be a manual option available in Casper’s India lineup.
What else do we know?
The Casper is Hyundai’s smallest SUV worldwide, making it smaller than even the Venue, which stands at less than four meters in length. The platform is similar to the one that underpins our Grand i10 Nios and Santro compacts.
Multiple Casper’s have been spotted testing abroad in camouflaged form. However, spy shots have revealed several unique design elements, including a split setup for the headlamps with DRLs, triangular designs on the taillights, and even an upright, boxy silhouette. Casper is expected to come with white upholstery on its interior, according to the spy shots.
Indian competitors and the launch
Casper will be unveiled next month in Korea, after which Hyundai will begin production. It is expected that India will be one of the next markets for Casper. Casper is a direct rival to Tata’s upcoming HBX and will compete with high-riding hatchbacks like Maruti Suzuki’s Ignis as well.

Awesome service and view of the falls on a patio
Built in 1819, the restaurant structure is the oldest standing building in Alexandria. Nicknamed the “Priest’s Mill,” it originally served as a grist mill.
It was built by a Scottish immigrant, Catholic priest Alexander Macdonnell, who inspired the name for the town of Alexandria. Later he became the first bishop of Kingston.
The building remained resilient to multiple fires as it served as a grist, stone, and roller mill over the next 150 years. In the 1970s, the building was renovated into a restaurant, eventually taking on the name you see today: “The North Glengarry.”
The image of the historic mill remains preserved in our picturesque patio, the only one of its kind in the area! Come experience a delicious meal with a view of the old dam and stone waterway. Be serenaded by the peaceful sound of the waterfall, fed by the nearby Garry River and Mill Pond.

To those who claim that India is now officially a totalitarian, fascist, Hindu Rashtra, one must ask: What kind of a Hindu Rashtra is this where a billion-strong Hindus have been, through our parliament, our courts, our education system, and our constitution, reduced to not just second-class but, rather, eighth-class citizens? What kind of a majoritarian state is this where Hindus are ruthlessly attacked and stoned on Ram Navmi, Hanuman Jayanti, Durga Pooja, and even Garba celebrations? What kind of Hindu Rashtra is this where a sitting Prime Minister shamelessly claims that minorities have the first right to the country’s resources? In what kind of Hindu Rashtra do 700,000 Kashmiri Pandits become refugees, but 40,000 Rohingya Muslims settle everywhere from Bengal to Kashmir?
What kind of Hindu Rashtra is this where the judiciary unabashedly claims that it is too late to prosecute those who raped, murdered, and ethnically cleansed lakhs of Hindus? What kind of Hindu Rashtra is this where Hindu temples are exclusively controlled by the State, where Hindus must beg for Waqf land to celebrate their festivals while the government usurps hundreds of thousands of acres of temple land and is responsible for more than 100,000 temples losing lakhs of crores in rental income? In what kind Hindu Rashtra does the Right to Education Act openly discriminate against Hindus and their schools, forcing tens of thousands of them to shut down? In what kind of Hindu Rashtra are monsters like Aurangzeb and Tipu, who perpetrated large-scale Hindu genocides, eulogized through State-sponsored publications, naming of roads and cities, and organizing of festivals? What kind of Hindu Rashtra is this where a law was about to be enacted that would have held solely Hindus guilty in a communal riot even if they were in a minority?
What kind of Hindu Rashtra is this where court judgments like the Sabarimala and legislative enactments like the Hindu Code Bill purport to “reform” only Hindu religious practices but dare not touch practices of other religions, and if they do, the decisions are promptly reversed like in the Shah Bano case? In what kind of Hindu Rashtra is there a law – The Places of Worship Act – that continues to deny the Hindus their legitimate right to correct historical injustices and reclaim thousands of demolished temples? What kind of Hindu Rashtra is this where the Waqf Act gives overarching powers to Muslims to declare a 1500-year-old Hindu temple to be on Islamic land when Islam is only 1300 years old?
If this is how a Hindu is rewarded in a Hindu Rashtra, he’d much rather be in a Muslim Rashtra because then at least there would be no pretense of equality – a Kafir will get what he deserves. In this searing commentary penned with clinical precision, the author shreds to smithereens once and for all the guilt-tripping, self-loathing fake narrative that Hindus have been duped with since Independence. A politically incorrect book with nothing but unvarnished truth, Hindus in Hindu Rashtra persuasively drives home the notion that the Hindus are living under State-sanctioned Apartheid.

In a video showing off her "New ...Baby One More Time outfit," a.k.a. a tied-up white button down and green plaid skirt, the pop star wrote a message to Jamie Lynn in the caption.
After Jamie Lynn Spears said she “felt like an afterthought” in her sister’s shadow, Britney Spears took to Instagram on Tuesday (Jan. 18) to set the record straight.
In a video showing off her “New …Baby One More Time outfit,” a.k.a. a tied-up white button down and green plaid skirt, the pop star wrote a message to Jamie Lynn in the caption. “In life a lot of people say “DO I MATTER ????” … try eating alone for 4 months morning [sun emoji] … noon [clock emoji] … and night [moon emoji] Jamie Lynn,” she wrote.
“I asked myself every day ‘DOES ANYBODY CARE ??? WTF ??? DO I MATTER ???’ I would honestly be very interested to see your pretty face in the setting I was forced to be in and asking yourself ‘DO I MATTER ???'” she continued. “I didn’t get to cry [crying emoji] … I had to be strong … TOO STRONG [muscle flex emoji] !!!”
Britney concluded with a final message assuring her sister, “So yes … YOU DO MATTER and don’t you ever think for one f–king second you don’t,” she said.”
See Britney’s latest post here.
The post comes just one day after Jamie Lynn appeared on an episode of Spotify’s Call her Daddy podcast in which she described to host Alex Cooper what it felt like growing up with a worldwide superstar older sister.
“I always felt like an afterthought, I literally was, I just learned to stay out of the way,” Jamie Lynn told Cooper. “I was so proud of her, I was like I know how hard she worked and I admired her, and it was so cool I got to witness the coolest things watching her live out her dreams. So for me it was like stay out of the way and let this experience happen because this was the goal everyone wanted and they got it so I just need to not mess anything up for anybody.”
And though Jamie’s Things I Should Have Said memoir roll-out has led to a public rift between the sisters, Jamie Lynn noted that Britney’s legendary work ethic has been “nothing but an inspiration to me” and that she truly does not feel jealous of her sister’s success. “I got to experience watching a woman take over the f—ing world. How can I be jealous of that?” she said.


In 4 words "Pain in the ass" lol
Getting the old ones out is the easy part as all you have to do is loosen one of the droplink bolts on each side and the one bolt that holds the bush inplace on each side.
The bushes are split so will come off the arb.
Then put the new bushes back on.
Refit the clip that secures the bush then you will find out that the bolt will not reach the hole.
What i did was get some long nose pliers but even my grip couldn't pull the clip close eneough to get the bolt started so i cut some pipe and put it on the handles of the pliers and squeesed like hell. After neumers attempts and lots of swaring it eventually started lol.
Then you have to do it all again on the other side

The arrival of spring means the appearance of hummingbirds and butterflies in our native plant garden and at the feeders on the porch of Tara Lodge. Our guests enjoy watching these small wonders and we work to include plants in our native plant garden that serve as food during the life cycle of Mississippi butterflies.
If you want to attract hummingbirds and butterflies to your garden throughout the season, you will need to select plants that bloom at different times to provide a consistent food source. Here are some plants we recommend for attracting and feeding hummingbirds and butterflies:
This unique plant (Spigelia marilandica) blooms in June, providing nectar for hummingbirds. If you remove spent flowers after the initial bloom, it will continue to bloom well into summer. Learn more about Indian pink.
Just like its name implies, Asclepias tuberosa attracts butterflies with its bright orange color and provides nectar. It’s a great plant to grow and hardy once established, but it is difficult to transplant due to its deep roots. It blooms in late May to September.
This lovely native shrub (Itea virginica) produces and abundance of fragrant flowers in April to June. It attracts a variety of pollinators including butterflies.
In early spring, there aren’t many flowers in bloom. The red buckeye shrub (Aesculus pavia) really stands out, blooming in early spring. During this time, you’ll find many a hummingbird and black swallowtails feeding on the nectar. Learn more about red buckeye.
The purple passionflower (Passiflora incarnata) is a host plant for larvae of the Gulf Fritillary butterfly. While the flowers are amazing, if you plant this vine and the butterflies lay eggs on it, there might not be much of the vine left. Regardless, it’s an important plant to the life cycle of the butterfly, and if you get to enjoy the blooms, it’s an added bonus.
There are many other plants (natives and non-natives) that can provide food and host plants for butterflies and hummingbirds. For additional suggestions in your area, follow up with your local Extension office.

A few weeks ago, we blogged to you about the NC Voter ID Law being proposed by Republicans in the general assembly–it would have required anyone voting to present state-issued identification, showing their address of residence.
Republicans have listened to the push-back (in part from the dozens of Duke students who called and petitioned the general assembly with Duke Democrats on the plaza!) and have proposed a compromise policy–under the amended proposal, you’ll be able to present your voter ID card instead of photo identification.
What this means if you’re a Duke student: hold on to your voter ID card. Given how buzzing the Duke Card Office is most days, this might be a challenge for the average college student. The BOE across the state will have to be very conscientious about explaining to people that they must maintain their voter ID card. I’ll give the Republican party due credit for attempting a compromise.
I’m still not convinced that a solution is necessary, because I’m still not convinced the status quo is a problem.
Rep. David Lewis, R-Harnett, chairman of the House Election Committee says…
“This gets us toward a little more confidence in the elections process.”
Who are all these people who lack confidence in the election process? There are certainly a lot of people who lack confidence in the government–in fact, a lot of people this bill would harm are people at the margin, who don’t feel like the government always speaks for them. Maybe I’m running in different circles than Rep. Lewis, but I have never heard anyone, Republican or Democrat said that they weren’t confident that U.S. or N.C. elections reflected the will of the people, on the basis of election fraud (as opposed to say, the electoral college, or voting machines with no paper trail).
Instead of thinking of solutions (and finding compromises among bad solutions), we need to identify problems. Start out with evidence that voter fraud is a problem, then establish a consensus around solving it, instead of proposing flawed and regressive legislation that imposes major roadblocks to voting, and expecting you’ll achieve consensus just by lowering those blocks.


To do this, I often align the launch of my content with a couple of guest posts on relevant websites to drive a load of relevant traffic to it, as well as some relevant links. This has a knock-on effect toward the organic amplification of the content and means that you at least have something to show for the content (in terms of ROI) if it doesn't do as well as you expect organically.
Nice post. I was wondering if all this content of your strategy was been writien in blog of the site, or if you added to content in some other specific parts of the sites. I don't believe 100% in the strategy of reomoving links. If Google just penalize you taking into account your inbound likes, It would be so easy to attack your competitors just by buying dirty link packages targeting to their sites.
Another ethical controversy associated with search marketing has been the issue of trademark infringement. The debate as to whether third parties should have the right to bid on their competitors' brand names has been underway for years. In 2009 Google changed their policy, which formerly prohibited these tactics, allowing 3rd parties to bid on branded terms as long as their landing page in fact provides information on the trademarked term. Though the policy has been changed this continues to be a source of heated debate.
More eyes on your website are all well and good, but if you can’t get them to interact, you lose. Engagement is what’s going to facilitate the conversion that you want. When users become invested in your content, they keep coming back, and they become the fuel for your sales funnels. So what is a “rich content experience?” Here’s what I recommend. Be intentional. Most people pump out content because they heard it’s the right thing to do. No rhyme. No reason. That’s a mistake. Every piece of content should serve a goal.
I found your content very interesting, and I believe there is a tool from Google that can boost small brands, so that the brand term begins to be more sought after: The Adwords Display Network. I'm having some results in the last months, because I created a display campaign with my brand, I put in highly regarded channels. Result: in the search network, I paid around U $ 1.00 per click, and on the display I am paying U $ 0.05 per click, and in addition, the number of searches with my company name (Gauchaweb) has increased more than 10% in the last 3 months. Worth the comment. Hug.
He is the co-founder of Neil Patel Digital. The Wall Street Journal calls him a top influencer on the web, Forbes says he is one of the top 10 marketers, and Entrepreneur Magazine says he created one of the 100 most brilliant companies. Neil is a New York Times bestselling author and was recognized as a top 100 entrepreneur under the age of 30 by President Obama and a top 100 entrepreneur under the age of 35 by the United Nations.
Great analysis and tips, Rand. Your first tip was to focus on branded search... but when it comes to small-medium businesses, there's a limit on how much brand search-demand one can produce. Are you saying that google search will eventually become an engine made only for entities/businesses we already know of? Where does that leave the whole discovery process?
Developing an organic content marketing system means putting content in the right places. It’s important to understand the core demographics your content reaches. Social media platforms provide a vibrant and instantly engaged audience. These audiences comprise a staggering 42 percent of the world population. But, not all platforms are equal in terms of their marketing potential. For example, Facebook commands the lion’s share of users, with 2.167 billion active users as of January 2018. Instagram and Snapchat are where the younger audience hangs out. Statistics from 2016 reveal 59 percent of 18- to 29-year-olds use Instagram. And 56 percent of under-30s use auto-delete apps.
Hi SEO 4 Attorneys, it could be any thing is this for your site for a clients site.It could be an attempt at negative SEO from a competitor? The thing is people may try to push 100's of spammy links to a site in hopes to knock it down. In the end of the day my best advice is to monitor your link profile on a weekly basis. Try to remove negative links where possible if you cant remove them then opt for the disavow tool as a last resort.
You could get even more specific by narrowing it down to customer base. Is there a specific group of clients you tend to serve? Try including that in your long-tail key phrase. For example: “SEO agency for non-profits in Albuquerque NM.” That’s a key phrase you’re a lot more likely to rank for. Not to mention it will also attract way more targeted, organic traffic than a broad key phrase like “SEO agency.”
SEO is not an appropriate strategy for every website, and other Internet marketing strategies can be more effective like paid advertising through pay per click (PPC) campaigns, depending on the site operator's goals. Search engine marketing (SEM), is practice of designing, running, and optimizing search engine ad campaigns. Its difference from SEO is most simply depicted as the difference between paid and unpaid priority ranking in search results. Its purpose regards prominence more so than relevance; website developers should regard SEM with the utmost importance with consideration to PageRank visibility as most navigate to the primary listings of their search. A successful Internet marketing campaign may also depend upon building high quality web pages to engage and persuade, setting up analytics programs to enable site owners to measure results, and improving a site's conversion rate. In November 2015, Google released a full 160 page version of its Search Quality Rating Guidelines to the public, which now shows a shift in their focus towards "usefulness" and mobile search. In recent years the mobile market has exploded, overtaking the use of desktops as shown in by StatCounter in October 2016 where they analysed 2.5 million websites and 51.3% of the pages were loaded by a mobile device . Google has been one of the companies that have utilised the popularity of mobile usage by encouraging websites to use their Google Search Console, the Mobile-Friendly Test, which allows companies to measure up their website to the search engine results and how user-friendly it is.
Craft or improve your email marketing strategy. Consider implementing Calls to Action that engage your readership in immediate ways. This works whether you’re selling a product, hosting an event, or delivering new content for your subscribers to enjoy. Set time aside to regularly draft emails–consider making a goal to write a set number of email drafts per week.
I think it has become harder and harder for smaller brands to really stand out in any kind of search. This is especially true with small brands who face lots of competition form other small brands in large cities. How does one build name recognition in NYC as an acupuncturists when any given building may house 3 or 4 practitioners with the same address. Then these small businesses are facing the Google Possum filter. And in some cases brands without websites are showing up in the three pack over highly optimized websites.
As of 2009, there are only a few large markets where Google is not the leading search engine. In most cases, when Google is not leading in a given market, it is lagging behind a local player. The most notable example markets are China, Japan, South Korea, Russia and the Czech Republic where respectively Baidu, Yahoo! Japan, Naver, Yandex and Seznam are market leaders.
Search engine marketing (SEM) is a form of Internet marketing that involves the promotion of websites by increasing their visibility in search engine results pages (SERPs) primarily through paid advertising. SEM may incorporate search engine optimization (SEO), which adjusts or rewrites website content and site architecture to achieve a higher ranking in search engine results pages to enhance pay per click (PPC) listings.
Anyone who types in a search query has a specific intent. And they’re expecting the content that they find in the SERPs to satisfy that intent. If you can understand the search intent of your prospective customers, it will transform your marketing in several ways. You’ll be able to predict what keywords your potential customers are likely to use. It’s easy to start targeting keywords with no structure or strategy. But that’s a mistake.
Another tip you can use is just reach out to the prior agency and say something like the following: “We realise you were using link networks for our website which has resulted in a Google penalty and loss in business. Can you please remove my website from any link network you have built?”. If the prior agency is decent, they will remove the links from the network.
Hi , the post is really nice , and it made me think if our current strategy is ok or not , 2 things are important " High quality content strategy " and " Good quality Links " now joining those correctly can pose some real challenges , say if we have n no of content writers who are writing for couple of websites, to be generic let’s consider , 1 writer @ 1 website . We have to write make a content strategy for in-house blog of the website to drive authentic traffic on it and a separate content strategy for grabbing links from some authentic High PR website i.e. CS should be 2 ways , In-house / Outhouse .
For instance, before launching a new product or service, a business can create a simple landing page to gather feedback from the target audience. Or it can run a survey asking a bunch of targeted questions. Or it can even go a step further and create a minimum viable product to see how the target users are interacting with it. With a bit of creativity, PPC ads can help gather real-time feedback that can be used to improve the end product, or idea.
The term “organic traffic” is used for referring to the visitors that land on your website as a result of unpaid (“organic”) search results. Organic traffic is the opposite of paid traffic, which defines the visits generated by paid ads. Visitors who are considered organic find your website after using a search engine like Google or Bing, so they are not “referred” by any other website.
In December 2009, Google announced it would be using the web search history of all its users in order to populate search results. On June 8, 2010 a new web indexing system called Google Caffeine was announced. Designed to allow users to find news results, forum posts and other content much sooner after publishing than before, Google caffeine was a change to the way Google updated its index in order to make things show up quicker on Google than before. According to Carrie Grimes, the software engineer who announced Caffeine for Google, "Caffeine provides 50 percent fresher results for web searches than our last index..." Google Instant, real-time-search, was introduced in late 2010 in an attempt to make search results more timely and relevant. Historically site administrators have spent months or even years optimizing a website to increase search rankings. With the growth in popularity of social media sites and blogs the leading engines made changes to their algorithms to allow fresh content to rank quickly within the search results.
Not every single ad will appear on every single search. This is because the ad auction takes a variety of factors into account when determining the placement of ads on the SERP, and because not every keyword has sufficient commercial intent to justify displaying ads next to results. However, the two main factors that Google evaluates as part of the ad auction process are your maximum bid and the Quality Score of your ads.
As the number of sites on the Web increased in the mid-to-late 1990s, search engines started appearing to help people find information quickly. Search engines developed business models to finance their services, such as pay per click programs offered by Open Text in 1996 and then Goto.com in 1998. Goto.com later changed its name to Overture in 2001, was purchased by Yahoo! in 2003, and now offers paid search opportunities for advertisers through Yahoo! Search Marketing. Google also began to offer advertisements on search results pages in 2000 through the Google AdWords program. By 2007, pay-per-click programs proved to be primary moneymakers for search engines. In a market dominated by Google, in 2009 Yahoo! and Microsoft announced the intention to forge an alliance. The Yahoo! & Microsoft Search Alliance eventually received approval from regulators in the US and Europe in February 2010.
PPC gives you the ability to fix your daily budget depending on how much you’re willing to spend. And since you can start off with a small amount, you don’t have to put a heavy investment at stake before testing the waters. Once you know a certain campaign is giving you a good return on investment, you can ramp up your budget and increase your ad spendings without worrying about incurring losses.
To sum up all of this information, even organic traffic, like direct traffic, has some gray areas. For the most part, though, organic traffic is driven by SEO. The better you are ranking for competitive keywords, the more organic traffic will result. Websites that consistently create content optimized for search will see a steady increase in organic search traffic and improved positioning in the search results. As a marketer, it is important to look at your keywords and high-ranking pages to identify new SEO opportunities each month.

A legend, a pioneer, an inspirational leader – just some of the names John Harvey has been called. Justin Stanton caught up with him for an indepth interview. Just about any aspect of transport, logistics and supply chain management you can think of, Harvey has been there, seen it and done it via his stints at Unilever, SPD and Tibbett & Britten (T&B) – and he probably did it first. He was awarded the CBE in 1992 for his services […]
Skills for Logistics (SfL) has announced the sudden departure of its chief executive, Mick Jackson. Jackson (pictured), who had been in the post for five years, has been replaced with immediate effect by his former deputy, Ross Moloney, while the board seeks a new chief executive.

The nation’s union membership rate continued a decades-long slide last year, falling to 11.8 percent of the American work force in 2011, the Bureau of Labor Statistics announced in a report on Friday.
That was down from 11.9 percent the previous year even though total union membership edged up, rising by 49,000 last year to 14.76 million. The overall membership rate declined because the increases in organized labor’s ranks did not keep pace with overall growth in employment.
The bureau announced these numbers as the nation’s labor unions have been coming under heavy political attack. Republican governors and Republican-controlled legislatures in Wisconsin and in several other states have pushed to curb the power of public employees to bargain collectively. Moreover, Indiana is poised to become the first state in more than a decade to enact a “right to work” law, which bans employers and unions from agreeing to contracts that require workers to pay fees for union representation.
According to the bureau, 16.3 million workers are represented by unions, some 1.5 million more than the total membership, indicating that many workers opt out of joining the unions that represent them at their workplaces.
The percentage of public sector workers in unions was 37 percent last year, more than five times the 6.9 percent membership rate for private sector workers. In the 1950s, more than 35 percent of private sector workers were in unions.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics said the number of private sector workers in unions increased by 110,000 to 7.2 million, buoyed by a rebound in manufacturing and construction employment. But with many states, cities and school districts laying off employees, the number of public sector workers in unions dropped 61,000, to 7.56 million.Continue reading the main story
The bureau found that New York State had the highest unionization rate, 24.1 percent, followed by Alaska (22.1 percent) and Hawaii (21.5 percent). North Carolina had the lowest rate, 2.9 percent, with South Carolina second-lowest (3.4 percent). The data was collected in the Current Population Survey, a monthly survey of 60,000 households.Continue reading the main story


Dr Christopher Perrella’s research uses light to make high-precision measurements of time and space and provide insight into the health of individual cells or into a person’s health.
The absorption of light by atoms or molecules allows Chris to measure the presence of different types of gasses to monitor biological processes or human health, or to build high-precision optical clocks used in next generation GPS. Dr Perrella also uses light to manipulate small particles to investigate the health of a cell or embryo.
Chris developed the Laser Radio outreach activity (https://laserradio.wordpress.com/), to highlight the fun and excitement of science to school students, aiming to encourage more students into STEM studies. This activity allows students to learn how information can be encoded onto light (the basis of modern telecommunication technology like the NBN) by transmitting audio signals over a laser beam in an interactive hands-on activity.
Chris was awarded his PhD in 2013 at the University of Western Australia. He is currently a post-doctoral researcher at the School of Biological Sciences, The University of Adelaide.

By Terence Rattigan. Castle Hill Players. Directed by Jennifer Willison. The Pavilion Theatre Castle Hill. June 1st – 23rd, 2018.
Written in 1946, The Winslow Boy is based on the 1910 court case in which Martin Arthur-Shee employed the highly respected barrister Sir Edward Carson, to defend his son who was accused of stealing a postal order from a fellow student at Osborne Naval Academy. The boy was found to be innocent, but the case “caused an uproar” and was widely followed by the press of the time.
In his play, Terence Rattigan paints a vignette of life and issues in Edwardian England.War is looming. Emily Pankhurst and her suffragettes are demonstrating for the right to vote. Though society is changing a little, it is still restrained by some Victorian customs and etiquette. Ronnie Winslow, a fourteen-year-old naval old cadet accused of stealing a five-shilling postal order, has been ‘sent down’ from Osborne. The family, staunchly believing in Ronnie’s innocence, begins a complicated and expensive effort to clear his name.
. . . the characters speak their messages of truth, justice and compassion in the style and language of a time past, but with the conviction and understanding of a more cognizant world.
Ronnie’s father Arthur is a retired banker, his wife, Grace, a devoted wife and understanding mother. Catherine, their daughter, is a suffragette. Their elder son, Dickie, is an Oxford student. Though the family is reasonably well off, they are by no means wealthy. The court case will stretch their budget – and affect their social standing should it fail.
Jennifer Willison has staged the play on a set that captures the authenticity of the time, yet pays homage to more contemporary ideas and skills in set construction. While the Winslow sitting room pays accurate homage to the accoutrements of the time, it is not the normal ‘box set’ that one expects. Instead, it ‘pays homage’ itself to the imagination of the designer – and the ingenuity of the creative team who brought her vision to life. Steve Wimmer (set construction) and Sean Churchward (lighting) did so handsomely.
Fourteen-year-old Brayden Sim plays Ronnie Winslow. Tremulous about facing his family, but tenacious in declaring his innocence, Sim is particularly convincing as he faces interrogation by Sir Robert Morton, K.C., the barrister his family have retained to defend him. Paul Sztelma is elegant as Sir Robert. He wears the formal garb of the time stylishly, moves gracefully on the stage, and the barrister he portrays is perceptive, intuitive and just a little equivocal.
Christopher Clark, coming late to the role of Arthur Winslow, finds the anguish of a father determined . . .

Saline implants have had a long-standing reign as the most popular type of breast augmentation surgery. However, that reign is being relinquished to the safest breast implants in New York, or the gummy bear implant. The natural-looking implants are innovative silicone implants that are more cohesive and dense than their regular silicone counterparts. When the implants are inserted, they are as pliable as gummy bear candy. That is why they are referred to as “gummy bear” type implants.
Therefore, patients who are looking for a reliable material for increasing their breast size or for improving the looks of their breast, have discovered that the safest breast implants in New York are indeed the gummy bear implants.
Less Leakage and Chance for Rupture
Because of the density of the gummy bear implant, it proves to be more durable and leak-proof as well. Saline implants can cause difficulties for the user as they have a tendency to leak or even go flat. In addition, regular silicone implants can leak too, all which can make a patient quite sick. Patients have had to remove traditional silicone implants because of this kind of issue.
With respect to breast augmentation then, the safest breast implants in New York are the gummy bear implants as the innovative device makes it possible for women to meet their goal of having larger or more attractive breasts using an implant that also is more natural-looking.
The FDA-approved implants are also considered the safest breast implants as they offer fewer complications during and after surgery. Because of its cohesiveness, this form of stable implant poses less risk of silicone gel migration, especially if the shell of the implant ruptures. Therefore, gummy bear implants identify more easily to saline implants, which only release salt water if they happen to break.
Because gummy bear implants feel so natural, they are not only considered the safest breast implants in New York, they provide the most natural way to increase the size of the breast or enhance it shape. The cohesive implants also lower the risk of capsular contracture or the formation of scar tissue surrounding the implants. Why scarring develops is currently unknown. However, some of the gummy bear devices feature texturization, which lessens the development of scarring.
Because gummy bear implants are form-stable implants, it means that the gel is firm and harder than the regular silicone variety. The form-stable designation also means that the implants must be inserted through a larger incision as the shape of the device cannot be altered. Therefore, incisions for silicone and saline implants are normally smaller.
We can answer all your questions about gummy bear implants and how they may benefit you. Visit us website to review your options and explore the advantages associated with the implants today.

Just over a week until Christmas...is all your shopping done? What about your baking? I haven't even started the holiday baking and I'm not sure what cookies I'll make. I am sure the kids will help me out when we get going on it this weekend, no matter what we bake.
This week was a pretty successful new recipe week! 2 side dishes, a main dish and a dessert; not bad! The most exciting dish of the week - you'll have to solve a riddle first. What is a vegetable and a side dish all in one? Cauliflower "rice"! It is ridiculously easy and so delicious. Even Liam loved it!!! This is going to be a regular in our home.
The pot roast was surprisingly flavorful, and with the leftovers later in the week we made individual Shepherd's pies. I forgot to take a picture, and there isn't a true recipe for this, but it was a great way to reinvent leftovers, and it was a hit at the table. Anything individualized, with initials piped in mashed potatoes on the top is likely going to be a keeper in our house.
I served mustard potatoes with the pot roast, and they were a huge hit. I had more stone ground mustard to use, so this was the perfect outlet for it. I was bit nervous because it seemed like a lot of the dressing for the potatoes was left in the bowl after mixing them, but the recipe said to leave it behind after you finish mixing them. I did leave it in the bowl, and cooked them as directed, and the potatoes turned out fantastic, and all were gone in a flash. The recipe I present here is half of the original, so clearly it will double well if you are serving more than 4 people.
Just a funny little story about Liam. When the pot roast was served, Liam looked at the meat on his plate and said "no no". But when we passed the gravy and asked him if he wanted some on his plate, he got on board. "More sauce" came out of his mouth a few times! I guess this baby just doesn't like dry meat! And he turned his nose up at the potatoes for most of dinner. By the time he finally tried one, and decided he did like them, they were all gone! I guess he learned the hard way - if you snooze you lose, especially with carbs like potatoes or pasta at our table!
Finally, the marbled graham crackers. My book club (and the monkeys) gave thumbs up all around on these - and even Ryan had a few pieces! It was a really easy recipe that turned out to have a beautiful presentation because of the marbling. You could break this into the natural pieces of the crackers, or break it more randomly for the traditional "bark" appearance - it is up to you.
Good luck with your baking and last minute holiday prep! Don't forget to put your feet up if you have time!
Marbled Chocolate Graham Cracker Treats
Cola Braised Pot Roast
Mustard Roasted Potatoes
Friday, December 16, 2011
* Nonstick vegetable oil spray
* 1/4 cup whole grain Dijon mustard
* 1 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
* 1 tablespoons butter, melted
* 1 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
* 2 garlic cloves, minced
* 1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
* 1/2 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
* 1 1/2 pounds 1- to 1 1/2-inch-diameter mixed unpeeled red-skinned and white-skinned potatoes, cut into 3/4-inch-wide wedges
1. Preheat to 425°F. Spray 1 large rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray.
2. Whisk mustard, olive oil, butter, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, and salt in large bowl to blend.
3. Add potatoes; sprinkle generously with freshly ground black pepper and toss to coat. Place potatoes on prepared baking sheet, leaving any excess mustard mixture behind in bowl. Spread potatoes in single layer.
4. Roast potatoes 20 minutes. Turn all the potatoes, roast about 20-25 minutes longer, until they are crusty outside and tender inside. Transfer potatoes to serving bowl.
Do ahead: Can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand on baking sheet at room temperature. Rewarm potatoes in 425°F oven 10 minutes.
The potatoes looked a little overdone (even some looked burnt) when I took them out of the oven, but they were all delicious and we ate every last potato. Do make sure to leave the excess dressing in the bowl and ignore the urge to pour it on the potatoes - it will just burn.

* 4 1/2 pound boneless chuck roast
* 3 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
* 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
* 2 tablespoons minced garlic
* 2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary leaves, or 3/4 teaspoon of dried
* 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
* 2 cups beef stock or low-sodium canned beef broth
* 12 ounces cola soda
* 2 tablespoons tomato paste
* 2 tablespoons flour
1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
2. Season the roast well on all sides with 2 teaspoons of the salt and the pepper.
3. Using a small paring knife, make thin slits into the roast on all sides, about 2 inches apart, and fill the holes with the garlic and rosemary by rubbing this on the roast and getting it into the slits.
4. Heat a Dutch oven over high heat and add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the roast and cook until very well browned on all sides, 10 to 12 minutes.
5. Add the beef stock and cola and bring to a boil, scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon to release any browned bits. Add the tomato paste and stir to blend. The liquid should be about 1/2 way up the sides of the roast.
6. Cover the Dutch oven, place in oven, and roast until the meat is fork-tender, about 2 3/4 to 3 hours, turning the meat every 45 minutes or so. Add extra water if necessary to keep the liquid level at about 1/3 up the sides of the roast.
7. When the meat is fork-tender, remove the roast from the oven and carefully transfer the roast to a serving platter. Cover loosely to keep warm.
8. Skim off as much of the fat from the surface of the cooking liquid as possible. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the fat in a small bowl and add the flour. Stir to make a smooth paste. Add 1/2 cup of the hot cooking liquid to the bowl and whisk to combine. Slowly whisk this mixture into the hot cooking liquid that remains in the Dutch oven and place over high heat on the stove top. Cook, whisking frequently, until mixture comes to a boil and thickens. Continue to cook for about 5 minutes, or until the sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary.
9. Serve the roast with the hot gravy.
Posted by Elizabeth at 6:32 PM
* Graham Crackers, broken in half, enough to cover your tray
* 6 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate
* 1/2 cup creamy peanut Butter
* 3 ounces of white chocolate
1. Line 13x9-inch pan with foil, with ends of foil extending over sides. Place grahams on bottom of pan, cutting as needed to completely cover bottom.
2. Microwave semi-sweet chocolate and peanut butter in medium microwaveable bowl on high 1-1/2 to 2 min. or until chocolate is completely melted and mixture is well blended, stirring every 30 sec. Alternatively, you can melt this on the stove.
3. Pour chocolate peanut butter mixture over grahams; spread to completely cover.
4. Melt white chocolate on high 1-1/2 to 2 min. or until chocolate is completely melted and mixture is well blended, stirring every 30 sec. Drop spoonfuls over semi-sweet chocolate; pull the white chocolate through the chocolate gently with knife to create the marbling effect.
5. Refrigerate 1 hour or until firm. Use foil handles to lift dessert from pan; peel off foil. Break into pieces.
5. Store the treats in the fridge.
Talk about easy, and delicious. I put the chocolate peanut butter mixture on the crackers and then the kids did the marbling.
You need to cover your cookie sheet with graham crackers, so depending on what size cookie sheet you use that will determine how much chocolate, peanut butter and white chocolate you will need to melt. I used my largest cookie sheet so I doubled the ingredients for the chocolate, peanut butter and white chocolate.

* Head of cauliflower
1. Wash and remove the stem from the cauliflower.
2. Run the cauliflower through the food processor to create "grains".
3. Put cauliflower in a microwaveable bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap.
4. Microwave on high for 6 minutes.
Wow! What a great side dish and vegetable all rolled into one! Everyone at the table loved this, and had seconds if not more. You can put salt and pepper and butter on this, or pour on the sauce from your main course. Owen loved it with Frank's Hot Sauce (though that wasn't surprising). Liam loved it with gravy. We will definitely be making this on a regular basis.
