Whims at the table: what to do and what is absolutely better not to do? – Italian Cuisine
Sitting at the table all together, when there are children in the family, it may not be a peaceful moment. How to deal with their whims and have quiet lunch?
If in my dreams the moment of the meal is that of family sharing of the day, I often clash with the whims of my children, who are in full affirmation phase of their self. "The television at the table is not seen!" And off with the scripts to turn it off. "You eat seated compound." And they challenge me by sitting crooked. "Hold your fork well!" And they take the food with their hands. I mean, I know moms can understand, but the 3-8 year phase can be complex to manage, especially at the table. How to deal with their whims? Here are some ideas, the result of much, much experience in the field …
5 tips to avoid tantrums at the children's table
1. Try to have dinner together, in a relaxed and serene atmosphere, with the TV off and involving the child in family chatter and giving importance to the story of his day.
2. Involve them in the preparation of the dinner, both by cooking together and asking to set. It is the best way to avoid tantrums during the meal because they feel satisfied and considered for what they have done.
3. If he refuses a dish, do not scold him immediately. Screaming and getting alarmed is of little use. Ask why he doesn't want it and try to find an agreement, for example by inviting him to taste it in exchange for a portion of that dish they prefer. Don't give in to blackmail though, tasting is essential!
4. Don't expect them to sit for long. Children are naturally hyperactive. It is essential that they understand that the moment of the meal is important and one must be composed, but if the dinner continues and they have finished, do not force their patience.
5. The game of the 3 rules: applies at the table, as in the rest of family education. Giving children many rules confuses them. Better to think of 3 and repeat them to the child so that you memorize them. For example: you sit well, you taste everything, you get up only when you are finished, with the permission of mom and dad.
The best menu for children aged 3 to 8
The food that you put on your plate is essential to avoid whims. But if on the tricks to make the children eat the parents they can indulge themselves, it is fundamental offer them a balanced and suitable menu both to their abilities and to nutritional needs. Some children, especially around 3 years of age, are not fully able to manage chewing, so we must facilitate them in taking food. While for them calorie requirement, for a child of the age group 3-8 years it ranges from 1350 to 1800 calories per day. The ideal menu for this age, also recommended by nutritionists, includes a breakfast with partially skimmed milk and biscuits. For lunch instead we can choose a past of lentils with pasta and a seasonal fruit. While fish is the right choice for dinner, for example sole or cod, with cooked vegetables, bread and fruit again.
And a snack?
Do not forget the snack, another fundamental meal for children. A comfortable solution, to be consumed even outside the home and with balanced nutritional values is Unduetris Merenda di Citterio with cooked ham: contains apple puree, breadsticks and sticks with cooked ham. Children will have the right amount of vitamins, carbohydrates and proteins, that is energy to spend playing and having fun, and there will be no caprice that keeps with such a snack!

QUESTION #11: "The Church of Wells website shows the faces of men implying the church sees them as the church's "cloud of witnesses." Many of the men shown held to the Doctrine of Perseverance of the Saints. Will the Church of Wells be removing the images of these men since your church believes a Christian can lose his salvation?" (Video)
Many Calvinists have argued that we should take down the faces of the men who believed in the TULIP, seeing that we (The Church of Wells) do not believe in every letter of the TULIP. Many have argued that this is deceit, that it is inherently sinful on our part. But Calvinists, especially those of the IllbeHonest, HeartCry and all associated camps, how is it that you are propagating the face and ministry of Leonard Ravenhill who did not believe in the TULIP? If you are demanding me to take down the faces of all Calvinists, it would be hypocrisy for you to continue your advocacy for the face, ministry, and voice of Leonard Ravenhill.
Most Arminians do not show-face the ministries and teachings of Calvinists probably because they seek to protect the loyalty of their followers from deception. This may be expected of those who are through-and-through Arminians, but we are not. In fact, we are not Arminians at all. We do not ascribe loyalty to either theological system, whether it is Calvinism or Arminianism. According to scripture, we see grievous error in both theological systems. We believe in a mixture of them both, so to speak. Not in a loose sense, as if our beliefs are without definition and precision. We simply believe that the scripture teaches both. Therefore in good conscience we advocate the face, ministry, and memory of every man seen in the cloud of witness banner on our website!

In the Secondary Sneaker Market, It's No Longer Just About Nike
Why big sneaker brands want resellers making money they'll never see
By Noah Davis May 31, 2016, 10:04am EDT
Share All sharing options for: In the Secondary Sneaker Market, It's No Longer Just About Nike
When Enrico Moretti Polegato took over as president and CEO of Diadora in 2014, he inherited a sneaker brand that had been producing quality products affiliated with sporting success for more than six decades. Tennis superstar Bjorn Borg wore Diadora during the 1970s and 80s. Soccer players including Dutch legend Marco Van Basten, rat-tailed Italian hero Roberto Baggio, and George Weah, the only African man to win the FIFA World Player of the Year award, all donned Diadora during their impressive careers.
What Polegato's company lacked was modern caché, a hook that would appeal to kids and adults who collect shoes. These sneakerheads, the majority of them young men, wait for hours outside boutiques on Saturday mornings, desperate to scoop up limited releases, which they either keep to impress their friends or sell for profit on secondary markets like eBay or Grailed. Nike and its money-printing Jordan brand dominate the billion-dollar resell industry, but Polegato decided to see if his company could make a small dent.

They partnered with Patta, an Amsterdam-based boutique, and released three versions of the N9000, a sneaker that originally hit shelves in 1990. It was a success with streetwear sites running headlines like "How Diadora Became the Brand Everyone Is Talking About Again." Polegato and his company gained entrée into the world of rare shoes, and his customers responded. "I knew the strength and the power of the brand when I took over, but the affection that the consumers showed to the brand and the quick way they understood the history surprised even me," he said during a phone interview.
The initial collaboration led to additional ones with more boutiques around the world. Diadora will release around 10 limited-edition sneakers this year, many of which will sell out in minutes, some of which will appear on the secondary market as flippers look to make a quick buck. The Diadora N9000 Soulbox "Ferro," for example, lists at $500, a significant premium over its retail price. But if that pair, or any other sneaker, does get resold on the secondary market, Diadora won't make a cent. And selling 1,200 pairs of a limited-edition release in stores around the world won't have much of an impact on Diadora's bottom line, either. For Polegato, however, the goal isn't dollars; it's marketing and brand-building. "It's not a matter of money," he said. "The value on the brand is way bigger than the cost of the collabos."

Diadora isn't the only company trying, and succeeding, to grow by inserting itself into the sneakerhead world. Saucony, New Balance, and Asics release around a dozen collaborations a year. Under Armour is finding success with the signature shoe line from two-time NBA MVP Steph Curry, specifically the Curry 1 MVP and their 200 percent premium. When Curry unanimously won his second MVP, just this month, Under Armour celebrated by releasing a Back 2 Back MVP Pack. The sneaker quickly sold out and is going for 125 percent premium from resellers. In the secondary market, it's not just Nike anymore.
So far, the biggest winner has been Adidas, which launched the Kanye West-backed Yeezy line in early 2015. Individual pairs can sell for 10 times their retail cost, and the Yeezys dramatically altered the secondary market landscape. In 2014, the year before Yeezy, Nike owned 96 percent of the $1.2 billion market, according to Josh Luber, who runs the price tracking website StockX.com. Adidas, meanwhile, accounted for just one percent. (Estimates on the size of the secondary shoe market vary widely, with industry analyst Matt Powell citing a figure of less than $500 million.) By 2015, however, Adidas made up 20 percent of the dollars spent, and Luber expects that figure to grow to 30 percent this year.
The success of Adidas goes beyond Yeezy, too, as the company followed up with much-loved lines. The Ultra Boost and the NMD are extremely popular silhouettes, according to Stadium Goods owner John McPheters. He sees a different type of consumer on Adidas release days than he does during Nike drops. "If you look on a Jordan line, a lot of people are there to buy it and then resell it," he says. "With the NMDs, a lot of people are buying to wear. It says good things about Adidas." McPheters estimates that 65-70 percent of his business by volume is Nike with 15-20 percent coming from Adidas, although the Yeezy Moonrockmight be the best-selling "dollar-for-dollar shoe" in the store.
At Stadium Goods in SoHo, Nikes take up the majority of the spots on the two store-length display racks. There's a heavy selection of Adidas as well – with plenty of Yeezys in the "Trophy Case" that's reserved for the most expensive pairs – but smaller brands like Saucony, New Balance, and Asics are finding room as well. All the models from these brands are collaborations with sneaker boutiques, similar to what Diadora did with Patta. This is a calculated strategy, according to Brandon Williams, the global business unit manager at Saucony Originals. The company puts out about 15 limited-edition collaborations a year, keeping them to between 1,200 and 2,400 pairs globally to create scarcity and, hopefully, interest. "We hope that someone will be interested in the resale value," he says. "When the next release comes around, if everything is right about it, then of course, you're hoping that we're going to see it on eBay or some of these different selling platforms that are popping up."

Williams credits an early collaboration with Bodega, a boutique in Boston, as the most significant moment in bringing the Originals line back to sneaker culture relevance. "They are the tastemakers," Luber says of a store like Bodega. When a brand creates a successful collaboration, two things happen: first, the boutique's buyers decide to carry more down-line Sauconys, further boosting the brand's appeal to sneakerheads; and, second, buyers from lesser-known boutiques see Bodega carrying Sauconys, so they pick up the brand as well. "Hopefully at the end of the day we are widening our audience and introducing them to some of the products that aren't that limited," Williams says. Diadora's Polegato calls the collaborations "a marketing tool based on authenticity," an honest assessment of their purpose.
It's also true that the market can only bear so much. There's a real question about whether the smaller brands are reaching the saturation point. Multiply 10 to 15 releases per brand per year times half a dozen companies, and suddenly it becomes very difficult to breakthrough in any meaningful way, especially when Nike and Adidas gobble up so much of the sneakerhead oxygen. "There are so many collaborations today that it's really just noise," analyst Powell says.

If there's a wild card in the future of the sneaker game, it's Under Armour. The Maryland-based brand, which passed Adidas in 2014 to become the second-largest sportswear company in the United States, doesn't need to rely on boutique collaborations because of its size. But it is, according to Luber, "the one brand that really hasn't been using the resale market and the sneakerhead model for their benefit yet." The only shoe that's seen much traction on the secondary market is the Curry 1 MVP, released last year after the Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry was named the NBA's best player. While that model still sells for twice its retail price, no one I spoke thought that Under Armour strategically planned for that jump. Rather, it occurred organically, simply because of Curry's massive stardom. (Under Armour declined to comment for this story.)
The secondary market success of the Curry 1 MVP had another unintended consequence: the price for in-line Curry models that were no longer available in stores increased on eBay. Not by huge amounts – a $150 shoe was selling for $200 or $210 – but enough to conclude that the vibrant market for the limited-edition Curry 1 MVPs inflated the interest, and, therefore, the price of additional models. That Under Armour doesn't see any cash from the secondary sales is beside the point; they are building something for the future.
Could the Curry line become the new Jordans, which spins off absurd amounts of money every year? (Fun fact: In 2014, Jordan made $100 million in royalties from the Nike, Jumpman, and Air Jordan lines, which was more than he took home during his entire playing career.) Almost certainly not, as there's no way that a single star can dominate popular culture the way MJ did. But the company could emulate that model, introducing 30 new colorways every year and making six or seven of them extremely rare. In theory, those pairs will go for massive money on the secondary market and kids who can't afford to buy them will look down market. The resellers win, but so does Under Armour.

It goes beyond Curry, too. Under Armour recently signed Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson to a long-term marketing deal that will include footwear. "That's a progressive, smart, savvy way to look at things," McPheters says. "They'll get his follower base dialed in the mix with product." While The Rock might not be an athlete, at least not in the traditional sense, sneakers sell because of an icon's cultural relevance, not because of their achievements in sport. Look no further than the success of Kayne's Yeezys for proof. Few thought West could sustain a sneaker line. He not only built something from nothing, but the resulting sneakers boast some of the highest resale values on the market.
Under Armour is approaching the sneakerhead market in a smart way, building slowly with the right kind of celebrity endorsers. The company is finding space, just as Adidas did and Saucony, New Balance, Diadora, etc. are. While Nike will be the biggest brand by virtue of a 20-year head start, their narrative softens a bit with each passing season. "A lot of kids who are buying Jordans today don't actually know who he was or his games or how important he was," McPheters says. "Every year that passes, the harder it is to tell that story and have it resonate." In other words, Jordan isn't gone, but he's slowly being forgotten. And half a dozen sneaker companies are rushing to take advantage.

The number of products for sale that advertise CBD since the main ingredient is increasing. CBD oils are a very effective way of restarting a daily dose of cannabidiol.

Oxygen's 'Preacher's of L.A.' debuts
NNPA — Dissected, discussed and even derided ever since its announcement, viewers will finally get a chance to see what all the fuss might be about when "Preachers of L.A." debuts on the Oxygen channel next Wednesday at 10 p.m.
The reality show chronicles the lives of six so-called mega-pastors, Bishop Noel Jones, the Rev. Deitrick Haddon, Bishop Clarence McClendon, Pastor Jay Haizlip, Pastor Wayne Chaney and Bishop Ron Gibson. It is produced by Lemuel Plummer ("The Monique Show," "The Family Crews") and Holly Carter ("The Sheards," "L.A. Hair").
The advance furor about prosperity preaching and how the show might impact on congregations and faith have all been grist to the mill, especially thanks to the oxygen of social media.
In terms of a quick character synopsis, Jones might be the most charismatic. The Jamaican-born brother of singer Grace Jones is almost as much as a celebrity as his famous Malibu flock and certainly raised eyebrows with his foreshadowed relationship with actress and former first lady of the Turks and Caicos Islands, Lisa Raye.
The youngest, gospel music star-film actor-producer Haddon, represents the rebellion within. He seems to be advocating for a back-to-basics approach and less ecclesiastical razzamatazz. McClendon, whose weekly international broadcast is available in 250 million homes worldwide, is Mr. Entourage and without a doubt sports some pretty fine clothes.
Chaney is a one-two punch with his gospel artist wife, Myesha, whose Antioch church is on the mega cusp and Haizlip found his faith after becoming a champion skateboarder and succumbing to drug demons. Meanwhile, by the age of 16, Gibson was a Crips general, but later turned his nine-people Life Church of God in Christ into a congregation of 4,500.
In an interview with The Wave last month, Carter sought to allay fears that the show was going to be all flash and no substance, but he did admit that the early trailers, or sizzle reels, might have given that impression.
"I have a doctorate in ministry and I come from a faith background," she said. "We wanted to show the real lives of these men, the unseen work they do in their communities and how they minister to their congregations. There's a lot more to it than the promos."
After seeing the advance media preview and attending the accompanying press briefing, she has a point. For one, the show also focuses on the preacher's wives and how they play a vital role in the ministries. Haizlip encounters an emaciated congregant in a park and finds some soulful words and Gibson rolls back to Compton to try and get some of his old friends to attend his service.
However, there's friction on view with Haddon questioning whether McClendon needs a six-person entourage to deliver the word of God. There's a standoff, which feels a bit contrived, before the latter jumps into his motor convoy to go to another engagement.
"I wanted to represent myself as the viewer," Haddon said. "They have a lot of questions to ask and I was bold enough to ask the questions. [But] it was a healthy debate amongst brothers; you have strong, opinionated people like us on a subject and it got heated. I love Bishop McClendon, but I think it's necessary for us to challenge and re-connect. Do we need an entourage? Can we make adjustments to accommodate the needs of the people? Did Jesus charge a fee to heal the sick and raise the dead? We have to get back to basics, back to Jesus' ministry, love and compassion for the people."
McClendon also sought to diffuse the clip.
"[Haddon] was voicing a perspective of people who were not in the room and the point is that there is diversity in the pulpit," he said. "A podiatrist and cardiologist are both doctors, but they do very different things. If you're going to check out my feet I don't mind you being in a room alone, but if you're going to open my chest I want you to have some people with you.
"As it relates to the assignment God has given me, it's different. I don't know the full aspect of Deitrick's [mission]. I do travel with a team of people, but one of the aspects you don't see is that I paid for my team to come. The ministry enables me to do that."
Addressing the theme of mega churches, Haizlip, flipped the question.
"Is there anything wrong with wanting a bigger church? Aren't we here for people? My vision isn't to minister to 90 people in a building; my mission is to minister to my whole community. So, I won't be satisfied until the whole community is in my church and the same goes for these guys."
Jones seemed to speak for the entire panel when he said he hoped one of the main takeaways from the series is how people will view the gospel.
"I hope you'll see that there isn't any real difference between people in terms of the body of Christ," he said. 'Men and women of God are just like anyone else. People act as if preachers are God, but they are men and I don't think they should be slaughtered if they make mistakes. I hope the series puts God back in the minds of the people."

Moving is demanding any way you look at it. If you're alone, the notion of it can be even far more challenging due to obtaining to do all the arranging by oneself. It's not the end of the globe and you can do it with cautious arranging and a tiny knowhow. Right here are ideas to get you going.
The following large point to decide is what to consider with you. As opposed to Europe, in which the electrical power technique and plugs are diverse, you CAN consider your electrical gear with you, no issue. Whilst this is excellent for transportable electrics like computer systems, hairdryers, and so forth., you require to do some checking on how a lot, for example it would expense you to 'move' your refrigerator or stove to Costa Rica. Then verify on how a lot a new a single would expense in the location you want to reside. This also applies to all furnishings.
When you believe of household shifting, it is not just about packing and moving out of the residence. It entails very a couple of other factors and in buy to have a smooth and trouble totally free relocation couple of factors require to be done in advance so that you do not land in trouble later on.
Moving boxes assist in packing items although moving from a single location to an additional. These boxes are abundantly available in the industry due to the escalating demand. You can get boxes in diverse shapes, sizes, colours and variations. People who go to industry to buy these boxes often get puzzled to choose the greatest a single. They will also be taken by shock after hearing their charges. Nowadays individuals are moving in direction of significantly less costly regions due to the economic downfall. Hence they look more affordable indicates for their move. In large cities like Berkeley the expense of living is very high. But by hiring moving services from any of the organizations you can get moving boxes Berkeley at more affordable charges. Berkeley has numerous Indian cost outlets and therefore you can uncover the most sensible moving services here.
What you require to do is to assess oneself 1st. Ask oneself, "Am I truly prepared for this large phase I'm about to consider?" You need to contemplate every thing ahead of creating any significant selections. Even however obtaining your own residence has numerous benefits, it also has some disadvantages which may possibly or may possibly not have a enormous effect on you. Be very cautious as residence purchasing is not for everybody.
So, ahead of calling the Excalibur Movers and updating your passport, make certain what ever opportunity you're contemplating of attempting, comes with Education and a Established Method that is simple to understand or… don't join it!
By "help moving" we don't suggest your brother-in-law or that body-building friend from operate. Much more individuals often hinder the move as everybody gets in the way. 1 truck can be loaded greatest by two individuals, perhaps three if effectively-coordinated.
Pack numerous goods from a storage such as tubes, gear, cabinets, shovels, rakes, and numerous other individuals. 8, Make certain that all of your kitchen appliances are usually turned off. 9. Indicate the labels of every of your respective fully new residence's bedrooms so the movers can undoubtedly match up all of them with the bins. The real movers will then have the capacity to easily set the proper bins from the proper bedroom. In case you are tired with reading through horror testimonies by buddies as effectively as family members who didn't hire authorities, consider into account Specialists to do the shift and perhaps the providing as effectively as storage space available for you way also.

GREEN BAY - Three Bellin Runs. Three-time top 10 finisher. First win.
Boston Marathon winner Meb Keflezighi, participating in the race for the third straight year, won the 40th annual Bellin Run on Saturday.
After two third-place finishes, fan-favorite Keflezighi finally earned a victory in the event.
Keflezighi crossed the finish line ahead of 16,943 other runners in this year's run with a time of 30:07.

He kept his lead through the entire race and finished 58 seconds ahead of second-place winner Jeremy Drenckhahn's 31:05. Keflezighi's average pace was 4:51.
"It's a great feeling to be able to pull a victory," Keflezighi said. "People welcome me with open arms and to be able to come and pull a victory is always nice."
Keflezighi's inspirational spirit doesn't stop once he crosses the finish line. He's known for running back into the race after completing to encourage others as they cross the finish line.
Why does he do it?
"I think it's important because we run the same distance, same conditions and we have respect for each other," he said. "We're all here trying to do the same thing."
A big question entering Saturday's run was how the heat would affect runners.
"It does slow you down a little bit," Keflezighi said, "but I finished it smoothly and happy and with a great experience."
Keflezighi is off to compete in his fourth Olympic Games this summer. He's also known for winning both the Boston Marathon in 2014 and New York City Marathon in 2009.
The 40th anniversary of Saturday's event also marked a special day for many of the original Bellin Run participants. Mike Dorsey finished his 40th race this year at 43:38.
"It's an incredible feeling to be able to participate in this for 40 years," Dorsey said. "Not just for myself, but for all the runners here, to be able to come out on a day like today and compete and run, it's just tremendous."
Six of the top men's finishers are from Wisconsin with the youngest being 20-year-old Fond Du Lac native Mitchell Bilitz with a time of 33:21.
Other notable finishers included 68-year-old four-time Boston Marathon winner "Boston Bill" Rodgers coming in at 47:08, and Frank Shorter, winner of the first Bellin Run, coming in at 1:03:42.
The complete list of top 10 finishers include: Keflezighi (30:07), Drenckhahn (31:05), Benson Cheruiyot (31:41), Brian Finnel (31:46), Tyler Sigl (32:08), Luke Humphrey (32:14), Brandon Dworak (32:44), David Luy (32:44), Armando Torres (33:18) and Bilitz (33:21).

BEIJING, (Xinhua) — For a world economy mired in a prolonged downturn, the G20 summit next month could be the light at the end of the tunnel.
Eight years after the global financial crisis, the recovery remains slow and fragile. The current global economic growth environment is mediocre, featuring rising unemployment, soaring debt, sluggish trade and investment and turbulent financial and commodity markets.
Since the outbreak of the financial crisis, fiscal stimulus and monetary easing have played an important role in lifting growth. However, over-reliance on monetary policy, especially in some developed countries, has led to macroeconomic and financial instability elsewhere. The use of fiscal policies is also constrained in some countries due to high debt levels.
Added to the already complicated global political and economic situation, Brexit, trade protectionism and terrorism are exacerbating the problem, meaning nations are struggling to find suitable work-arounds to ensure the success of their stimulus packages.
Accounting for two thirds of the world's population and more than 80 percent of global economic output, G20 nations deserve, and are expected, to play a bigger role in managing the world economy. The upcoming summit is undoubtedly a prime opportunity, and has the potential to play a significant role in the rebooting of global growth.
The focus of the summit will be sustained global growth. As the host nation, China will use the conference to spur dialogue among developed and developing countries around the potential to foster growth through reforms and innovation.
While fiscal and monetary policies will address fluctuations in the short term, a longer-term strategy is needed to elevate the current malaise permeating the world economy. Reforms, structural adjustments in particular, must be incorporated into current policy frameworks to create fertile surroundings for growth.
Innovation will be a G20 key agenda for the first time, thanks to a proposal by China. Innovation, characterized by technology and new products and business models, will create new consumption opportunities and trends.
The people of the world have high expectations for the summit, yet, success depends heavily on all G20 members working together, to implement, not just hash out, policies and measures.
The summit offers a new starting position. However, the journey will be fraught with obstacles. To successfully address low growth, nations must put their faith in cooperation, implementation and, sometimes, painful reforms. Although, perhaps, a bitter pill to swallow, the results will speak for themselves.

Princess Audrey Becomes the Queen of Mean in Descendants 3!
It's hard to get excited about something as cringe-worthy as Descendants, which premiered on Disney Channel in 2015 as a blatant ripoff of Mattel's Ever After High. It was followed up with an even more cringe-worthy sequel in 2017 that barely had any semblance of a plot. These movies seemed like an easy cash-grab to show off the singing and dancing talents of various Disney Channel teens by turning them into rebellious offspring of classic animated Disney characters who jump around in leather '90s grunge and brightly colored hair. They focused mainly on the villains' kids, with the cliché message that you shouldn't judge people by first impressions. That's all well and good, but there weren't many royal children to demonstrate that princesses aren't always sugar sweet either. The only token princess to fill this role was Audrey, the daughter of Princess Aurora from Disney's Sleeping Beauty. Instead of being polite and loving, Audrey comes off as a spoiled and entitled brat, likely as a result of being raised by someone who got everything she wanted in the end. While this would have made for a great reversal of the common princess trope, Audrey was usually left in the background until Descendants 3 premiered his weekend.
"Audrey's Royal Return" was a promotional short that came out a few weeks before the premiere of Descendants 3 that featured Princess Audrey recounting the events of the previous two movies while receiving a full Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique-style princess makeover treatment. She emerges with killer pink and blue highlights in her hair and a modern-day version of Aurora's pink dress with pants underneath. "Ben's going to be sorry he ever let this go," she says, referencing how Prince Ben, the son of Belle and Beast, dumped her without a second thought in the first Descendants movie for Mal, the daughter of Maleficent and series protagonist. This promo video was a great refresher of what happened so far without all the cringe-worthy pop dance numbers as well as a hint of what was to come in the new sequel. No longer was Audrey going to prick her finger on the spindle of fate like her mother did before her. This princess was ready to fight back.
Fortunately for us, Descendants 3 was true to its promise to unleash Audrey's wrath as the movie's biggest foe. For the first time since the series began, actress Sarah Jeffery had an opportunity to shine in the song "Queen of Mean," where she asserts her power as a true Disney royal. By the time the song is over, Audrey undergoes yet another full transformation from Disney Princess to wicked sorceress. I love that this song represents how even Disney Princesses don't always do the right thing, but it suffers from the autotuned bubblegum pop sound of all the other songs from the Descendants movies. The verses are performed through talk-singing instead of an actual melody. This isn't a dig at Sarah's talent but instead bad songwriting, something that each movie has suffered from since the beginning. When "Queen of Mean" reaches its crescendo, however, we can hear the full breadth of Sarah's talent, making me wish that she had more screen time since the beginning. Maybe she would have had a song that was actually worthy of her talent.
The concept of good princesses turning bad after being scorned in love is not particularly common as far as Disney movies go. Even Anna from Frozen was hurt but not angered by Hans' betrayal. Audrey's behavior is more reminiscent of Emily from Corpse Bride, which was produced by Warner Brothers, not Disney, than it was of a traditional Disney villain. This movie worked so much better than the first two because it's something that was a long time coming and should have been addressed much earlier. In the original Descendants, we're just supposed to go along with Ben dumping Audrey with it because Mal is the main character, even though she tricked Ben with a love spell. We're never given a real reason why Ben was with Audrey or why he chose Mal over her. Of course, Audrey doesn't take it very well and comes off as a bit of a Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, but who wouldn't after getting dumped for the daughter of their mother's worst enemy? Audrey was long overdue for a revenge scheme.
I hope that Descendants 3 will be the last movie in the Descendants line so Disney can be respectful to the late Cameron Boyce, who played Carlos, one of the four main villain kids, and had a nice tribute video at the end of Descendants 3. However, I wish that the story addressed in this movie had taken place at from very beginning to eliminate the need for sequels. Audrey had been pushed aside like yesterday's meatloaf and yet had nothing to say about it until now. This movie worked better than the other two because it was the only one that actually made sense. If we shouldn't judge villain kids as evil, then we shouldn't judge princess kids before getting to know them either. You never know if there's another Queen of Mean just waiting to happen.

The lady of royal manners said…
I felt Audrey like an entitled brat all along the movie, but maybe it was because her behavior reminded me of Sophie, from the book The school for good and evil (by Soman Chainani, only the first is good, but whatever.) Sophie was the blonde, all dressed in pink girl who always dreamed to be a princess. Her best friend Agatha was the black haired, strange, sullen girl. Still, in school, the first was taught to be a witch and the second a princess despite everyone expect it would the other around...Because, guess what, Sophie is a bad girl and Agatha is good (so yes, appearances are deceiving). So it is not Sophie who get the prince charming (Tedros) but Agatha, and Sophie turn mad as a result, getting an evil makeover at the end of book one. In the second, Tedros asks her directly why he should have chosen her instead, Sophie go into a speech explaining the she always wanted to be a queen, thinks she deserves it, feel entitled to it...and Tedros answers, "You never said you wanted to marry me, because you love me."
I felt this was the same here. Audrey did not looked like she was in love with Ben, but with the function. So I did not felt sorry for her. Even Belle, who's tolerance incarnated, said Audrey was a " kiss-up".
Lisa Dawn said…
Thanks for your comment. I also thought she came off as a brat in all three movies, but I didn't feel like she realized her true potential until the third one, which was a tragic waste of the actress's talent.

Graphene oxide dough for manufacturing
Jan, 28 2019 | Manufacturing
Graphene oxide dough (GO dough) makes graphene easy to shape and solves manufacturing challenges.
"A Northwestern University team is reshaping the world of graphene — literally.
The team has turned graphene oxide (GO) into a soft, mouldable and kneadable play dough that can be shaped and reshaped into free-standing, three-dimensional structures.
Called "GO dough," the product might be fun to play with, but it's more than a toy. The malleable material solves several long-standing — and sometimes explosive — problems in the graphene manufacturing industry.
"Currently graphene oxide is stored as dry solids or powders, which are prone to combustion and explosion," said Jiaxing Huang, who led the study. "Or they have to be turned into dilute dispersions, which multiply the material's mass by hundreds or thousands."
After being shaped into structures, the dough can be converted into dense solids that are electrically conductive, chemically stable and mechanically hard. Or, more water can be added to the dough to transform it into a high-quality GO dispersion on demand.
The dough can also be processed further to make bulk graphene oxide and graphene materials of different forms with tunable microstructures. Huang hopes that GO dough's ease of use could help graphene meet its much-anticipated potential as a super material.
The research was published today (Jan. 24) in the journal Nature Communications. Huang is a professor of materials science and engineering in Northwestern's McCormick School of Engineering….

QUICK DIRECTIONS: To melt your chocolate or candy wafers,coarsely chop and place into a microwave safe bowl. Microwave at 50% power for 1 minute, then stir well. Continue to microwave for 15 to 30 second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until smooth. For best results, do not overheat the chocolate, and avoid introducing moisture. Both these conditions will ruin the chocolate. Once your chocolate has been melted, use a craft paint brush and carefully "paint" the white or colored chocolate into the mold designs. After filling each design, tap the mold onto the table to settle the chocolate, and remove any trapped air. Once your painted design chocolate has cooled, fill the the mold cavities approximately 1/3 full with the contrasting colored chocolate or candy wafers. Tap the mold onto the table to settle the chocolate, and remove any trapped air. If you've painted the designs, avoid remelting them by filling the cavities with chocolate that's as cool as possible, and tap the mold very gently as this can also cause the colors to bleed together. Press the Oreo cookie into the chocolate, and center it in the mold cavity, horizontally and vertically. As you press the Oreo into the mold cavity, the chocolate will rise up around the sides, embedding the cookie, and leaving only the top uncovered. Pour the chocolate over the embedded Oreo, completely filling the mold, and covering the cookie. Gently tap the mold onto the table to settle the chocolate, and remove any trapped air. If necessary, level the chocolate by scraping away the excess with a silicone spatula. After the chocolate has hardened, chill the mold in the refrigerator for approximately 10 minutes. Turn the mold upside down and press on the back of the cavity to release the chocolate covered Oreos.
If using genuine chocolate, the chocolate should be tempered prior to adding to the mold.
Do not overheat the chocolate or candy melts - extremely hot substances can cause sticking in the mold.
Do not melt your candy melts/chocolate directly in the mold using a microwave.
Hand wash the mold. Mold is NOT DISHWASHER SAFE. Dishwashing or putting the mold in microwave will cause damage to the mold and effect performance.

This study investigated the antipoverty efficacy of minimum wage policies. Proponents of these policies contend that employment impacts are negligible and suggest that consumers pay for higher labor costs through imperceptible increases in goods prices. Adopting this empirical scenario, the analysis demonstrates that an increase in the national minimum wage produces a value-added tax effect on consumer prices that is more regressive than a typical state sales tax and allocates benefits as higher earnings nearly evenly across the income distribution. These income-transfer outcomes sharply contradict portraying an increase in the minimum wage as an antipoverty initiative.
—Thomas MaCurdy. (Via Tyler Cowen.) May we please switch our attention away from the minimum wage and towards the Earned Income Tax Credit now?

Made by us here in Minnesota
Our version of a Hnefatafl game using game pieces inspired by a surviving sheep bone game piece found in Oxfordshire, England. "Tafl" games are said to have been played by Norse cultures as early as 400 A.D., and were imported by the Vikings to Iceland, Britain, Ireland, and Wales. They were the primary strategy games in Northern Europe prior to Chess. Unlike Chess, or Checkers which are fought by equal armies from opposite sides of the board, "Tafl" games involve a single king and his defenders in the center of the board surrounded by a larger army of attackers.
Our version is inspired by an unusual fragment of a game board found with the 9th century Gokstad Ship Burial discovered in Norway. The board fragment appeared to have a 13 x 13 grid on one side and a 9-Man Morris game on the opposite side. Traditionally, surviving boards are fairly plain, but to make it easier to set up we have identified the starting layout with simple knotwork designs. The boards are about 3/4" thick and 16-inches square. We also include facsimile sheep knucklebones as an option for playing "Tawlbwrdd" a Welsh variation which may have used dice.

4-Player Shut the Box Game
This game seems to be about 200 years old and was first popular along the French coast with Fishermen and sailors. We don't make these ourselves, but in response to frequent requests we've started carrying them. Roll the dice and lay down any numerical combination of tiles that match your roll. Just keep on rolling until you can no longer match your roll on the remaining tiles. The lowest score wins the game. If you lay down all the tiles, then you've "shut the box".
It can be played with any number of players, taking turns, but the 4-sided board makes it ideal for 2-4 players. It can even be a solitaire game. Includes eight dice.
4-Player Shut-the-Box game with tiles numbered 1 to 10
Measures 8.5 x 8.5 x 1.25 inches
Felt lined playing surface for quieter rolls of the dice
Eight dice included (4 different colors)

Clashes reported at funeral of Iranian dissident cleric
The streets of the city of Qom were thronged with mourners
Iranian reformists have clashed with police after the funeral of a dissident cleric, opposition websites say.
Earlier, tens of thousands took part in a procession for Grand Ayatollah Hoseyn Ali Montazeri in the holy city of Qom.
Clashes reportedly broke out, but the scale of the confrontation is not clear, says a BBC correspondent.
Montazeri - who died aged 87 of natural causes in Qom on Saturday night - had decried President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's re-election in June as a fraud.
The reformist Jaras website said mourners chanted slogans in support of the cleric and also of opposition leader Mir Hossein Mousavi.
Mr Mousavi took part in the procession, along with fellow opposition leader Mehdi Karroubi.
The reformist Kaleme website reported that Mr Mousavi's car was attacked by "plainclothes men" on motorbikes, as the opposition leader travelled back from Qom to Tehran.
Kaleme said the assailants shattered the car's back window and injured a member of Mr Mousavi's entourage.
'Beating their chests'
Many mourners were carrying green banners or wearing green - the colour of Iran's opposition.
DEFIANT CLERIC
Born into provincial family in 1922 and educated at a seminary
Arrested and tortured for leading protests against Iran monarchy
Designated successor to Islamic Republic's founder, Khomeini
Fell out with Khomeini in 1989 over Iran's human rights record
House arrest in 1997 for criticising current Supreme Leader
Issues a fatwa against President Ahmadinejad after 2009's election
Obituary: Ayatollah Montazeri
Analysis: Government's challenge
The ayatollah's son, Saeed Montazeri, said the security forces had surrounded his father's home after the ceremony in the holy city of Qom.
Kaleme said that following the funeral, some mourners threw stones at police surrounding the cleric's house and clashes with security forces followed.
Footage broadcast on the internet showed crowds chanting against Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, calling him a "murderer" and saying his rule was illegitimate.
Meanwhile, amateur footage sent to BBC Persian interactive apparently shows government supporters outside Montazeri's house, holding posters of the supreme leader.
Policemen wearing blue uniforms with NAJA on the backs, are holding them in line.
Other video showed thousands of mourners marching in Montazeri's home town of Najafabad, near the central city of Isfahan.
They beat their chests and chanted: "Oppressed Montazeri, you are with God now."
The government knows the funeral is one demonstration it cannot forbid, says the BBC's Tehran correspondent Jon Leyne, although it fears it could spark another round of protests.
In response, authorities have imposed strict new restrictions on the media, both foreign and domestic.
The BBC said fresh attempts had been made to jam its Persian television service to Iran.
I believe that Ayatollah Montazeri's death may end up in another violent protest of brave anti-government protests
Peter Riley, US
Mr Mousavi and Mr Karroubi were both presidential candidates in last June's disputed elections.
Anger at the result saw mass protests in Tehran and other cities that led to thousands of arrests and some deaths.
They have called for Monday to be a national day of mourning.
The grand ayatollah was one of Shia Islam's most respected figures.
He was an architect of the 1979 revolution that created Iran's Islamic state but later became a vocal critic of the government.
'Rioters' cleric'
BBC religious affairs correspondent Christopher Landau says that in a country where the younger generation is often seen as increasingly secularised, Montazeri offered an understanding of Islam in sympathy with many of the opposition's concerns.
Christopher Landau,
BBC News religious affairs correspondent
Grand Ayatollah Montazeri's ideas about religious freedom were particularly challenging to the current Iranian government.
Conversion away from Islam is illegal.
But Montazeri said that if a Muslim converted to another religion after careful study and using their free will, that choice should be permissible and respected.
In a country where the younger generation is often seen as increasingly secularised, Montazeri offered an understanding of Islam in sympathy with many of the opposition's concerns.
His death deprives Iran of an outspoken champion of an alternative vision for the Islamic Revolution, our correspondent says.
The cleric's death also comes during the sacred first month of the Islamic calendar. The 10th day of that month, the Shia festival of Ashura, is this coming Sunday.
It was already likely to offer a platform for opposition protests, and this death gives that date added significance, our correspondent adds.
On 20 December, following news of the grand ayatollah's death, a large crowd quickly gathered outside his home in Qom to pay respects.
Sporadic gatherings were also reported in Tehran and other cities.
Foreign media have been restricted in Iran since the post-election protests and it is often difficult to verify reports. No foreign media have been allowed to attend the funeral.
Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei did offer his condolences on Sunday, praising Grand Ayatollah Montazeri as an outstanding jurist.

However, the Supreme Leader tempered this with criticism, saying he hoped God would forgive the late cleric for failing his "crucial test".
This was a reference to Montazeri's falling out with the leader of the revolution, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini.
State news agency Irna did not use the grand ayatollah title in its early reports of Montazeri's death, and referred to him as the "rioters' cleric".
The White House praised Montazeri, saying he had been "known and internationally respected for his unwavering commitment to universal rights".
Hoseyn Ali Montazeri was one of the early backers of Ayatollah Khomeini and was designated to succeed him.
But the pair fell out over Iran's human rights record a few months before Khomeini died of cancer in 1989.
In 1997 he famously clashed with Khamenei, whom he outranked in the religious hierarchy, after questioning the powers of the supreme leader.
Montazeri repeatedly accused the country's rulers of imposing dictatorship in the name of Islam and said the liberation that was supposed to have followed the 1979 revolution never happened.
Then, despite his old age and failing health, Montazeri backed the opposition's claims that the 2009 election result, which gave Mahmoud Ahmadinejad a landslide victory, had been widely rigged.
Montazeri said Iran's leadership was a dictatorship and issued a fatwa condemning the government.

Egypts Arab Spring ex-president Morsi 'drops dead' in court
Posted: Wed Jun 19, 2019 11:41 am Post subject: Egypts Arab Spring ex-president Morsi 'drops dead' in court
U.N. joins call for independent probe into death of Egypt's ousted president Morsi

Claire Parker June 18 at 12:13 PM
CAIRO — The United Nations on Tuesday joined the chorus calling for an independent investigation into the death of Mohamed Morsi, Egypt's first democratically elected president, a day after he collapsed and died inside a Cairo courtroom.
"Concerns have been raised regarding the conditions of Mr. Morsi's detention, including access to adequate medical care, as well as sufficient access to his lawyers and family, during his nearly six years in custody," said Rupert Colville, a spokesman for the Office of the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights.
Morsi, who suffered from diabetes and liver disease, was held in solitary confinement for six years. He had complained during earlier court proceedings that he was denied the insulin dosage and special diet he required and that as a result had experienced diabetic comas, according to Human Rights Watch. A prison nurse or doctor would occasionally monitor his blood pressure and sugar levels, but no additional health care had been provided, and he was forced to buy his own insulin, the group reported. His family said he had lost most of the sight in one eye because of medical negligence.
By urging an impartial probe into whether the conditions of Morsi's detention "had an impact on his death," the United Nations could bring more pressure on Egypt's government to launch a proper inquiry. The calls for such an investigation have, until now, been from Morsi's supporters and human rights groups, which the government has dismissed as politically motivated.
The 67-year-old Morsi, who was elected president in 2012 and ousted a year later in a military coup, was interred Tuesday during a closed funeral in a public cemetery in Cairo's eastern enclave of Nasr City. Egyptian authorities refused to allow his family to bury him in his family's graveyard in the Nile Delta province of Sharqiya, his son Ahmad Morsi said in a Facebook post.

Egyptian authorities and local media reports suggest that Morsi died of a possible heart attack or stroke. The nation's public prosecutor said a report on the cause of the death was being prepared. It is unclear whether that was completed before the burial, which in Islam is usually within 24 hours of death.
The Muslim Brotherhood, whose top members are now in exile in Turkey and elsewhere, described Morsi's death as "murder."
While in solitary confinement, Morsi was largely denied access to family members, friends and lawyers. His family was allowed to visit him only three times.
In calling for an investigation, Human Rights Watch's Middle East and North Africa director, Sarah Leah Whitson, said that Morsi's death "followed years of government mistreatment" and that his medical care had been "inadequate."
"At the very least, the Egyptian government committed grave abuses against Morsi by denying him prisoners' rights that met minimum standards."
In a statement Tuesday, Egypt's State Information Service called the allegations a "new ethical low" and "an attempt to prematurely reach outcomes with the most politicized intentions." It added that the accusations of medical mistreatment are "unfounded."
During a court appearance in June 2017, Morsi asked to brief his lawyers on the "crimes" he had endured in prison. Even as his condition worsened, an official health report presented during that court session declared Morsi to be healthy apart from suffering from high blood pressure.
In a Washington Post op-ed last year, Abdullah Morsi, the former president's son, wrote that his father had lost most of his sight in one eye while in prison because of inadequate health care. "We fear that the Egyptian authorities are doing this on purpose, since they want to see him dead 'from natural causes' as soon as possible," Abdullah Morsi wrote at the time.
Human Rights Watch published a report in June 2017 describing Morsi's health problems and condemning the Egyptian government's unwillingness to allow the prisoner access to proper care, family visits and information about the outside world.
His family told the organization that Morsi had fainted twice and had fallen into a diabetic coma during the first week of June 2017. According to Whitson, Morsi told his family that a medical professional had informed him that he needed surgery for his deteriorating sight but that he never was able to get it.
By contrast, the Egyptian government was far more attentive to the health of former president Hosni Mubarak, who was deposed during the Arab Spring protests. When Mubarak encountered health problems while in prison, authorities transferred him to a Cairo military hospital, where he was detained until his release from custody in 2017.
Before Morsi's burial Tuesday, his family attended funeral prayers in the mosque of the capital's Tora prison, where they washed and shrouded his body and performed other traditional rites, Ahmad Morsi said. The burial was attended only by family members, under heavy security.
Egyptian security agents prevented reporters and photographers from attending the funeral and barred journalists from traveling to Morsi's village. State newspapers carried his death in brief notices on the inside pages.
As Egypt's government worked to prevent any public discussion of Morsi's legacy and death, the ousted president was receiving something resembling state honors in Turkey, where prayers were said in his memory on Tuesday and President Recep Tayyip Erdogan referred to Morsi as a "martyr."
Erdogan, a supporter of the Arab Spring protest movements and an Islamist leader sympathetic to the Brotherhood, had been one of Morsi's key allies during Morsi's year as Egypt's president. Erdogan has also been a vocal critic of the coup that deposed Morsi and of the government of President Abdel Fatah al-Sissi. Hundreds of exiled members of the Brotherhood live in Turkey, welcomed by Erdogan's government.
"I am condemning the Western world and humanity, who watched Morsi taken down in a coup and tortured in a prison cell," Erdogan said at a political rally in Istanbul, according to the Reuters news agency.
Morsi, a senior leader of the Islamist Muslim Brotherhood movement, was elected president a year after Egypt's Arab Spring uprising toppled longtime autocrat Hosni Mubarak. That vote is still considered the country's only fairly contested presidential election, and for many Egyptians, Morsi's victory represented hope that democracy would take root after decades of military-led rule.
But within a year, Morsi had lost much of his political goodwill. Critics accused him of seeking to usurp power and Islamize the government and nation and of mismanaging the economy.
In July 2013, the military ousted Morsi after massive demonstrations erupted against his government. The military arrested him and other top Islamist leaders.
A month later, Egyptian troops raided protest camps, killing hundreds of Morsi's supporters in Cairo's Rabaa al-Adawiya Square and other areas. Human Rights Watch called it "one of the world's largest killings of demonstrators in a single day in recent history."
The Muslim Brotherhood was outlawed as a "terrorist group."
During the coup and the massacre, the army was led by then-Gen. Sissi. He became Egypt's president in 2014 and was reelected last year after all his credible opponents dropped out because of arrest, intimidation or the lack of a level playing field.
Sissi's government has jailed tens of thousands of Muslim Brotherhood members and supporters, all but crushing the movement. His authoritarianism has spread since 2017, silencing most forms of dissent, including shutting down hundreds of websites deemed critical and most independent news media.
The government also continued to target Morsi and other top Muslim Brotherhood leaders even while they were in prison. A death sentence was commuted to life imprisonment, but Morsi faced multiple trials on charges including inciting violence.
When he collapsed Monday in a glass cage where defendants are held in the courtroom, he was on trial on charges of engaging in espionage with Hamas, the Palestinian militant group that controls the Gaza Strip.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Wednesday that Mohamed Morsi was "killed" and called for Egypt's government to face an international investigation over the death.
Speaking during a televised speech in Istanbul, Erdogan said the imprisoned former president - who was overthrown in a coup in 2013 - had been deliberately allowed to die by Egyptian authorities.
"Morsi was struggling on the floor in the courtroom for 20 minutes. Authorities unfortunately did not intervene to save him," Erdogan said.
"Morsi was killed, he did not die of natural causes."
Erdogan forged close ties with Morsi, Egypt's first freely elected civilian president and a prominent Muslim Brotherhood member.
But Ankara's relations with Cairo deteriorated after the Egyptian military, then led by Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, ousted Morsi in 2013.
Sisi then became president.
'A funeral with no body or coffin': How Morsi's hometown observed his death
Erdogan has sharply denounced the military takeover in Egypt and called it a "coup".
On Wednesday, he said he would follow up on the process related to Morsi's death.
"We will do whatever is needed for Egypt to be tried in international courts."
The attorney-general's office in Egypt has said that Morsi was "transported immediately to the hospital", where medics pronounced him dead - a version confirmed by a judicial source.
Morsi was buried on Tuesday, as rights groups including Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch called for an independent probe into the causes of his death.
Erdogan on Tuesday joined in prayer at an Istanbul mosque for the former Egyptian leader.
Egypt's government, still led by Sisi, has reacted with anger to suggestions that it intentionally caused Morsi's death.
On Wednesday, Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmed Hafez slammed a UN call for an inquiry as a "deliberate attempt to politicise a natural death".
He said he condemned in the "strongest possible terms" the request from the spokesperson for the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Rupert Colville, made on Tuesday.
"Any sudden death in custody must be followed by a prompt, impartial, thorough and transparent investigation carried out by an independent body to clarify the cause of death," said Colville.
"Concerns have been raised regarding the conditions of Mr Morsi's detention, including access to adequate medical care, as well as sufficient access to his lawyers and family."

At this very moment, as I write this, I'am watching you play lovingly with your toys; in fact you are under the coffee table with your bunny, bowling ball, and blanky- and it's melting my heart.
At two years of age, here you are with no worry, just filled with purity, love, and innocence. You know my son, our time on this earth is unknown, for our time of death is only known by God. I may be here today watching you with my eyes and my heart, but I might not be here tomorrow to observe the person you become. That's why I'm writing this letter to you now, for my time on this Earth may not permit me to tell you the contents of this letter in person when you are ready to hear them. I hope you will read this letter one day, not only with your eyes, but with an open heart, similar to the way I'm watching you right now as you play right in front of me.
I want you to know that some people have asked me if I'm afraid that you will grow up to be 'girly' simply because you have two older sisters. It hurts me when I hear others saying this, and it even angers me at times. Of course, I'm not worried that you play with dolls, and the fact that you do makes me envision your role as a caring and loving father one day, God willing. When you carry a doll around the house and kiss it with great joy, it brings ME joy knowing that one day you might kiss your own child like this one day. Some might even ask why I let you play tea party with your sisters and my answer is because it makes me happy to see you having imaginary tea with your sisters, and perhaps this is a start of a tradition; my only hope is that you will visit your sisters and have tea together for the rest of your lives. And when you offer your imaginary tea to me with your dimpled hands, it gives me hope that one day you will offer your wife a cup of tea when she needs it – when she's had a long day or when she just wants you to sit with her and listen.
My dear son, please know that I won't expect you to sit around the house while your sisters and I serve you, but I will expect you to do things for yourself. This is not because I don't love you, but it is because I do love you. You should know how to do housework as our beloved Prophet Muhammad SAW used to help around the house as well. Son, always remember that our Prophet Muhammad SAW is our role model, and we should look up to him, and not follow the common men of today's society. If I'am not around to teach you to cook and clean, please take it upon yourself to acquire these life skills, as they will come in handy to you in life and your future family. Just imagine your future wife being pleased with you because you know how to make dinner or you have cleaned the stove for her while she was ill! Just image how these simple acts can increase love between a wife and husband!
While typical teenage boys of today's society may value fancy cars and brand name clothes, please know that these hold no true value. Know that life is not about cars and clothes; it's about faith, compassion and love. Life is about pleasing God, not society and its materialistic demands. And while I want you to do well in school, get a job and obtain enough income for a living; I also want you to strive for the goals in life that will lead you to the ultimate place of happiness. Son, these goals that I refer to are the most difficult goals to reach. During the process of obtaining these goals I speak of, you may want to give up. These are the goals of being an honest person, a loving person, and a trustworthy person. In a world filled with hatred, jealousy, and fraud it is easy to fall into the traps of deception and evil. You might slip once or twice, but please work your way out and lead yourself to the path of righteousness. Pay often, for God is the only one who will help to rescue you! It is God that will guide you, you just have to ask my son and God will deliver!
If I' am not alive when you desire to get married, please look for the most beautiful woman out there to be your wife. No, I don't mean beautiful as in society's definition of beauty; I mean beautiful as in a beautiful heart! Do your best not to chase after a woman that matches today's standard of beauty, but go after the woman who gives beauty through her faith, through her words, through her heart. Son, this is called everlasting beauty and once you observe this beauty through a woman, your heart will let you know that she is the one. And when you marry this beautiful woman treat her with respect. Don't ever think that being abusive, both verbally and physically, will make you a stronger man, because it won't – it will make you a weak one!
If you live to be a father, please know that your children don't need your money more than they need YOU. Use your hands to wipe their tears of pain and sorrow, use your fingers to tickle their tummies, use your ears to listen to their every trouble and worry, use your feet to walk with them through life, use your mouth to express words of appreciation and motivation, and use your eyes to see the light in theirs. Be there for them, teach them Deen, strengthen their Imaan, change their diapers, kiss their owies, play pretend with them, listen to their stories, laugh with them, hug them, hold them, wipe their tears – in other words, give them all of YOU!
My son, be the man that will not only please your father and I, but be the man that will please God. Always remember, that we love you and I hope you will read this letter whenever you feel lost in this life, when you feel lonely, or if we are not alive and you miss us dearly.
wa iyyakum, yaa ukhti. I should learn more about parenting from you.
And you're right about parenting…thanks for sharing with us.
Mashallah, this was beautiful and made me cry when I read it. As a mom of a 7 almost 8 year old, I worry about my son and the kind of man he will become. Inshallah, I will have him read this, hopefully he understands that moms only want what's best for their kids.
MashAllah sis very heartfelt letter. As a mother I can understand exactly. I have a son and a daughter too. And you have reminded me we do not know when death will come, and to let it all out now. I pray that all children become good Muslims ameen.
Beautiful letter. Been thinking of visiting your blog. Today got the chance. Jazakallah for pouring your heart out in this thought provoking letter.
