Il pop-corn o popcorn (dall'abbreviazione inglese di popped corn, pop = scoppiare, e corn = granturco, mais; in italiano anche: mais scoppiato) è un alimento ottenuto tramite riscaldamento di chicchi di mais.

Il pop-corn viene generalmente cosparso di sale oppure zucchero, ma esistono numerose varianti, per esempio al caramello, al miele, al cioccolato e al burro fuso. Viene consumato sia caldo che freddo. Viene molto spesso servito nei cinema.

Storia
Il mais è stato addomesticato in tempi molto remoti, ovvero circa 10.000 anni fa in quello che ora corrisponde al Messico. Gli archeologi hanno scoperto che l'uomo conosce i popcorn da migliaia di anni. Prove fossili provenienti dal Perù suggeriscono che il mais è stato coltivato già nel 4.700 a.C.

Nel 19º secolo, lo scoppio dei chicchi è stato ottenuto a mano sui piani cottura. Essi sono stati venduti principalmente sulla Costa orientale degli Stati Uniti.

Preparazione

Per la preparazione casalinga dei pop-corn - senza l'aiuto di macchine specifiche - è possibile utilizzare una padella con fondo spesso e coperchio, unta leggermente d'olio con un tampone di carta da cucina. La si pone su fuoco vivo con una quantità di chicchi che non coprano completamente il fondo. Quando, dopo un minuto circa, i primi chicchi cominciano a scoppiare, la si scuote in modo da far rotolare i chicchi sul fondo per evitare bruciature. Terminata la cottura, togliere il coperchio per lasciare evaporare l'umidità residua e salare. In alternativa all'olio vengono spesso utilizzati per la cottura la margarina vegetale o il burro.

In alternativa, esistono macchine per preparare i pop-corn che utilizzano l'aria calda anziché l'olio, oppure è possibile utilizzare allo scopo il forno a microonde, con i pop-corn da cucinare contenuti in un sacchetto.

Motivo dello scoppio

Come tutti i chicchi dei cereali ogni seme di mais contiene una certa quantità di umidità rinchiusa nel suo endosperma amidaceo. A differenza dei chicchi degli altri cereali, l'involucro esterno o pericarpo del seme di mais è spesso impregnato di umidità.

Nel momento in cui il seme viene riscaldato e l'acqua ivi contenuta portata ad ebollizione, si genera un'alta pressione interna. Nel seme degli altri cereali (e in quelli danneggiati del mais), il vapore si disperde velocemente, ma in quelli saldamente sigillati, il vapore viene trattenuto dal pericarpo, mentre la pressione inizia a crescere fino a creare un'improvvisa e piccola esplosione, la cui forza è tale da rivoltare l'interno del seme. Questo è molto importante in quanto l'umidità distribuita regolarmente per tutto l'endosperma amidaceo a seguito dell'esplosione rivolta l'endosperma verso l'esterno in una leggera schiuma bianca che dà al popcorn il suo classico aspetto.

I chicchi di mais non scoppiati durante la cottura possono dipendere da:
 insufficiente umidità per creare sufficiente vapore per generare l'esplosione.
 secondo le ricerche di Bruce Hamaker della Purdue University, una falla, presente nel pericarpo, in grado di far fuoriuscire l'umidità. In questo modo non si raggiungerà mai la pressione sufficiente a generare l'esplosione.
 distribuzione del calore non uniforme, per cui il chicco non è stato riscaldato a sufficienza, oppure al contrario l'esposizione è tanto violenta per cui il pericarpo si carbonizza su un lato, facendo uscire l'umidità. .

Leggende metropolitane
È una leggenda metropolitana quella secondo cui il campo elettromagnetico creato da uno o più telefoni cellulari possa far scoppiare i chicchi di mais. Infatti le semplici onde elettromagnetiche non provocano l'aumento di temperatura necessario ad innescare la reazione all'interno del pericarpo.

La giornata dei pop-corn
Anche i pop-corn hanno una loro giornata celebrativa: il 19 gennaio si festeggia infatti lInternational Popcorn Day.

Traded for Olawale? Think he mixed up a couple of our moves.
I know Matt isn't that high on the Raiders this year but he has a few good points. I think I have more faith in Derek Carr's talents though, especially working with Gruden and a very good offensive line. With an improved defense I think they should be in the running for the AFC West title at least.
People do have pensions, but the word he was looking for was penchant. Can we get some QC?


Photos by Katya Moorman of Style Defined NYC. Special thanks to dapperQ Founder, Susan Herr; Photo Editor, Karen L Dunn; Videographer Alex Berg; and The Hole Gallery for donating the space for our shoot.
What song best describes your look?
I loved everything about the shoot: The opportunity to be with some other dappers in appreciation of ourselves, our bodies, and our fashion.
It was an amazing experience for me personally. I have embraced my style as an adult (as a younger queer person, we don't always have the opportunity to wear what we want and to express ourselves in that way) and really appreciate an opportunity to build community around appreciating and expressing ourselves. I hope that this visibility will allow/empower us to have the courage to be ourselves and inspire others as well.
My heather gray soft t-shirt collection.
Outfit details: Blazer from Top Shop. Pants and shirt by GAP. Shoes from Urban Outfitters. And hair? I just wake up and it's this awesome!
Urban Jungle, Top Shop. I don't really shop, I honestly hate it. I get my friends to pick out things for me. As long I don't have to do anything.
Bow tie. How do you think I get ANY ladies?
What was your favorite moment(s) from the shoot?
I had a lot of fun hanging out with friends like Ryley and Alyssa while being a part of this whole thing. It was nice to see that our styles are being showcased for the world to see and maybe gain a better understanding for gender benders.
What does it mean for you on a personal level to be involved in a project like He Said/We Said?
I am really proud to be a part of this project showcasing gender benders. Fashion and personal representation has always been important to me and it is nice to see that there are other lesbian/queer identified people that feel the same way.
That is a tough question. I think my own style is kind of like a Chinese Buffet; there are things that you would expect and then things that come totally out of left field. With that said, I really love fusing really classic menswear with young hip hop and skate culture.
H&M's men's line fits my shape so perfectly, being tall and really skinny it can be hard to find men's clothes that look tailored.
A hat. Usually a snap back. My hats have literally become an extension of me, they also serve the function of keeping my bald head warm.
Preferred gender pronoun: "He" or "She" works, but I'd like to be called "Dad" by my kids.
The social aspect is always the most fun. It is always awkward to try and act "cool" for the camera, so when someone cracks a joke, it helps.
Long Beach, CA – Best vintage shops for anything and everything.
My Casio calculator watch. It's one of the few things I can depend on.
"La Bikina" by Juan García Esquivel, or anything from Esquivel really! His music is described as "space age bachelor pad music", playing with the intersection of modernity, sensuality and ease.
Nick Wooster. I'll also take his hair dresser and tattoo artist(s).
When I started coming into my own sense of masculine style in college, there were very few places to turn to for inspiration or support. He Said/ We Said provides a much needed platform for folx in the community to do just that – inspire and support each other through the celebration of personal expression. For unconventionally masculine folks –particularly women and POC– designer menswear can be alienating; but by showing that replicating those looks can be done on a budget and with a gender queer point of view, we make fashion accessible. It is an amazing feeling to expand the idea of what is possible, however small.
I have this burgundy leather jacket that I bought from a street vendor in Brooklyn that I absolutely cannot live without. The color is sophisticated enough to dress up or down, it has removable lining for seasonal flexibility and it actually fits my shoulders! The best part is: I spent all of $20 for the best jacket ever!
Don't forget to check out DapperQ laster this week for a behind-the-scenes look at the shoot!
You guys really need to put a hotness warning on articles like this. A girl needs to prepare herself!
OK so everyone looks way beyond awesome, but Laura Eiko maybe just became my new favorite person because calculator watch…also I have never seen anybody rock that hairstyle so hard.
Typing with one hand and fanning myself with the other…Thanks for making my week!
so wonderful to see. so hot!
so impressed with the choices of gender pronoun.
Oh wow! You're all so smoking hot! My heart skipped a beat every time it saw a picture.
And Talya's pictures caused it do to a somersault while it was at it.
This is totally relevant to my interests. Thank you, Autostraddle!
Laura Eiko= Major Heartthrob! They're all really swoon-worthy though.
Ryley is a super babe.
Woahhh, what a great retirement present! Looking at this fashion post is better than strategizing for my 2016 campaign! At first, I didn't know if I was still experiencing some post-concussion blurriness, but then I realized that these were some super cool images of some super fine folks!! See ya next time, Hillz is out!

Worst british dating shows
Back in , 'There's Something About Miriam' hit the airwaves. A dating show with a difference, the titular Miriam dated six different men over a period of time before revealing to them all that she was transgender. It was also blasted by critics, with some accusing the Sky One show of reinforcing stereotypes about trans people, and exploiting an important issue. The premise of this completely ridiculous show was that a group of American women were flown to the UK, where they competed for the affections of a man they were led to believe was Prince Harry, but was actually a look-a-like.
15 Worst Reality TV Shows We STILL Can't Believe Were Ever Made
Eventual winner Kimberly Birch later hit out at the show, claiming the girls all knew that 'Prince Harry' was an imposter, but were manipulated into thinking they were just being paranoid by producers, who urged doubters to speak to a fake therapist for reassurance.
OTT and mildly offensive, 'Playing It Straight' saw one woman having to whittle down a group of 12 single men, with the unfortunate obstacle that six of them are hiding the fact that they're gay.
What Channel 4 hadn't banked on, though, was quite how dull this would be for viewers. More than one person at ITV2 gave this programme the thumbs up. Something to think about.
The UK�s Reality Dating Shows, Ranked by Queerness
When you start running out of skills celebrities can learn as part of a TV show, you have to think outside the box, and that's exactly what the producers of 'CelebAir' did when they came up with a show that would see a host of C-listers training to become cabin crew members.
But everyone is naked.
Bloated hamster, Keith Chegwin. Despite getting high ratings because watching boobs is a national pastime , the national backlash was such that they even discussed the bastard thing in the House of Commons.
I hate this show.
While attempting not to scare a giant, robotic hare. Blobby and Ice Warriors have weekends been filled with such peculiar antics. The gold standard hehe when it comes to terrible UK TV, Eldorado was the brainchild of legendary producer Verity Lambert and should have been a runaway success.
Yet it was beset by problems from the off with many of the actors practically novices, and thus unable to remember any lines. Furthermore, no subtitles were provided for foreign languages an issue when the show was set in Spain and the soaring production costs caused one of the producers not Lambert to have a nervous breakdown. A rapid, quick, speedy and all-around stupid-fast way to look at all the cool shit you want on your phone.

I caught my reflection in the mirror, on my way to the bathroom, and I smiled at myself.
It was such an impulsive thing to do.
It was a sweet, somewhat flirty smile.
When I thought of how significant such a random act was, I gave thanks.
Thanks to God Almighty. Thanks to every one in my life.
It may seem like a very simple act, but it's on these little signs that I am convinced that I self-love.
I pondered how my life would be if I looked in the mirror and hated what I saw.
To be sure I wasn't wallowing in vanity, I went back to the mirror to stare intently at myself.
Observe and study the obvious imperfections of my reflection.
My braids are only a week old and still glorious. Repping every Naira and time that went into their existence.
My face was bare. Make-up free (as a result of laziness and convenience ) in spite of my Fancy February resolve.
All the scars from pimples past were ably represented and uncovered.
All the budding acne present were regretting showing up on my face because the lady never learnt how to not squeeze.
The blackheads underskin were shrinking from the dryness of my "I forgot to moisturise" skin.
My eyes were hiding behind my glasses.
My lips were a little chapped because I already licked off the balm applied earlier.
It was a really basic appearance, but I loved myself enough to be excited to catch my reflection.
I light myself up and that is proof that my happiness is dependent on me. There is absolutely no need to sustain toxic relationships if they would make me dislike the person I see in the mirror.
I have been trying to lose weight, especially in the belly region (😖) and struggling, but it doesn't make me unappreciate myself.
Beauty standards and appearance as accepted by society exist for correction. Not to be enforced on unwilling participants, hence the feeling of failure they feel when they come across their reflection.
2. Self love is not selfishness.
I assume you get my gist at this point.

Patients slam 'rip off' hospital car park costs
By Alexa Fox @echoalexa Reporter (Thirsk & Ripon)
Car parking at the University Hospital of North Durham Picture: Google
HOSPITALS made more than £254 million from parking in the last year and one in three increased their charges, according to a new study.
The report, by the PA news agency, surveyed 7,883 people who had used a hospital car park in the last two years and financial data was gathered from 144 NHS trusts.
This data showed that hospitals made £254,373,068 from charging for parking in 2018/19 - up ten percent on the previous year and a record high.
Overall, 47 NHS trusts increased their parking charges between 2017 and 2019, typically by ten percent.
How much do North East hospitals make from car parking?
Letters: Anger over car park costs
The survey revealed that patients and visitors often struggle to find spaces, experience a lack of disabled parking, long queues and parking meters that do not work.
And in a table of the most expensive hospitals for parking, the North Tees and Hartlepool NHS Foundation Trust came top at £4 an hour, although a trust spokesman said that was not the full picture.
He said: "We have two car parks at the University Hospital of North Tees and one car park at the University Hospital of Hartlepool; the visitor car parks on both sites are free for 20 minutes before charges apply.
"In addition, for visitors making recurring visits there is a seven day multiple visit permit costing just £7 which can be used across the two sites."
He added: "There is an additional car park for the University Hospital of North Tees located on Hardwick Road which is also free for the first 20 minutes and then costs £2 for a stay of up to 14 hours.
"The hospital sites are on local bus routes, and are accessible by foot or cycle."
In the PA study, 86 percent of those polled nationally said parking added to the stress of a hospital visit.
Some participants described the charges as "a rip-off", "too expensive", "extortionate", "astronomical" and "exorbitant".
And almost one in five people who received a parking fine said it was because their appointment overran or for some other reason beyond their control.
Only England's hospitals routinely charge for parking - it is largely free in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
A spokeswoman for the Patients Association said: "Charges for car parking at hospitals are a charge on people who are unwell, levied on them because they are unwell.
"We believe that patients should not be effectively charged for being ill."
Deputy chief executive of NHS Providers Saffron Cordery said increases in the cost of parking were frustrating, but added: "Car parks are expensive to run for the trusts that own them.
"These parking facilities must be maintained, lit well, and secure."

Jonathan and Joy Black, who have been commended by the Harryville assembly in Ballymena, Northern Ireland, to serve the Lord in London, have been involved in gospel meetings in Clifton Hall, South Norwood. Each night there were unsaved in under the sound of the gospel. When visiting this area door-to-door, they spoke with people from a range of cultural and religious backgrounds. Conversations at the doors offered a great opportunity to present a simple gospel message, even to those who will not come into the Hall.
Each Wednesday Jonathan and Joy have also been conducting open-air meetings and distributing gospel tracts in the centre of London. Over the summer they have focused on an area close to Victoria station and have been encouraged by those who have sat and listened, including those who work in the area, tourists and homeless. Following the preaching questions are often asked, even by those who claim to be atheists. Please pray for the contacts made through open-air work.
The 16th residential Yorkshire Bible Study Week was held at Sneaton Castle Centre, Whitby, in October, with over eighty people from all parts of the U.K. in attendance. Phil Coulson led Bible Readings on Romans 12 and 13 and gave ministry on 'Aspects of Priesthood'. The excellent teaching and warm fellowship were much appreciated.
The small assembly at Kirkby-in-Ashfield, Nottinghamshire, convened another 'Evangelism Day' on the 8th October. They were joined by eighteen young people from other assemblies for an intensive day of evangelism around the town.
Although the weather was poor, with rain throughout the day, 2500 tracts were distributed and a short meeting was held in the town centre shopping precinct. The enthusiasm of the young people was particularly appreciated as they braved the elements throughout the day.
The saints were encouraged by the contacts made, by conversations with various people, by an increase of seventy hits to the assembly web site over two days, and by two men who came to the gospel meeting as a consequence of the tract work. Please pray for the seed sown.
It is hoped to repeat this effort in the new year, DV.
At a recent series of meetings conducted by Peter Brandon at Roseford Chapel, Cambridge, the saints had the joy of seeing a man profess salvation. In addition, a leader of the local Brownie pack, who is supportive of the children's work, brought over 20 children from her pack to the gospel meeting, along with some of their parents. The gospel was clearly proclaimed and the outcome left with the Lord.
Whilst many people visit the city of Salisbury to see its 123m cathedral spire, the small number of believers who meet at Barnard Street Gospel Hall, had the joy of sharing a greater treasure with a good number of the local children and adults. For two weeks, they opened the hall and invited the public to 'Discover the History of the World's Bestseller'. Around 160 children and 140 adults took up the invitation.
Another well-attended season of 'Friday Nights @ Winchester' have seen many young believers enjoy simple, challenging, and encouraging ministry from the word of God. This last series was entitled, 'Knowing Jesus Christ as . . . ' and covered, 'our Redeemer', 'our Bridegroom', 'our Great High Priest', 'our Advocate', and 'Head over all things'.
After a week of gospel meetings in Liverpool, Thomas and Dietburg Jennings had packed all their goods into their motor home, ready for the next leg of their journey of invitations in Scotland. Having locked and secured the vehicle, they returned to the hall to commit the saints to the Lord in prayer. They had said their goodbyes and on returning to the vehicle found that, even in that short space of time, it had been stolen!
They were totally reliant on the Lord as to what to do, as everything from computers, to credit cards, to clothes was gone and the Lord, in His matchless grace, immediately intervened and wonderfully supplied everything necessary for their safe return home to Northern Ireland.By Sunday, 2 October, Dietburg still maintained her belief that the Lord would not allow His work to be thwarted . . . and, against all odds, on Monday, 3 October, they received a telephone call from the Merseyside Police Authority advising them that the motor home had been found. The van and the contents have now been recovered with minimal damage.
A primary school in Liverpool has opened the doors for a local brother to teach about scripture to four classes each week for the first six weeks of 2012. The school has also agreed to take the Bromborough Bible Exhibition.
The assembly in Huyton have seen the contacts through their Parent & Toddler group grow. In December 2011 the parents were invited to one of the local saint's home for supper and a brief message about the real meaning of the birth of Christ. The saints were encouraged recently when a Botswanean lady visited the hall, and subsequently trusted the Lord for salvation. She asks challenging questions every time she meets the believers. Please pray for her preservation and progress.
Open Airs continue in Liverpool city centre with some younger brethren doing the bulk of the work. An additional worker has joined the group of workers recently. This brother is gifted in personal evangelism and each week is successful in engaging many individuals in conversation. He is also an excellent writer of tracts and has written some bespoke tracts for use in this work on the streets.
The work at Manvers Hall, Bath, continues amongst the young and old. A recent special series of Family Services was held based on the theme of 'The Cross - Why?' A number of the believers brought along friends and family and the response was encouraging. The first and last of the series were followed by a meal, and this provided good opportunities for conversation with those who came along.
There was an exercise amongst the believers to commence an after-school work amongst primary school aged children. Almost thirty children have attended each Wednesday afternoon between 4.15-5.15 p.m., and a number of parents regularly stay. This has been a great encouragement and much enjoyed by the children attending. Particularly pleasing has been the number of friends of the believers' children who have attended.
A recent series of Friday night ministry sessions have also provided great help and encouragement to the believers. A good number have joined from other places for this series entitled 'Inspire!' The series challenges us to find our inspiration in the inspired word of God as we seek to continue our testimony. The current series focuses on 'continuing steadfastly . . . ', and, so far, useful sessions have looked at doctrine, fellowship and preaching the gospel with boldness.
The assembly in Pensford has once again supported the Bibles for Children ministry and brother Philip Veater was able to distribute Children's Bibles to 22 new starts at Pensford Primary School in December (see picture above).
There was opportunity to speak to the children as a group, together with the rest of the school. Philip was surprised and encouraged by the answers to his questions about the Bible and the Lord Jesus as to who He was and what He had done. In this school 'religious education' has caught the interest of the children and is having results. It is the belief of the saints that the Bibles distributed over the years may have contributed to this.
In the run up to Christmas and the annual Carol Service the new Precious Seed Olympic-themed calendars were distributed to every home in the village and beyond. We trust many will hang this attractive calendar in their homes where the Word of God will be seen and read on a regular basis during the year.
The annual week of children's special meetings was held in early October at Coleford Gospel Hall, Coleford, Nr Bath, with David Tinkler. Good numbers of children came, and as well as learning a text each day, they took home scripture texts to colour, and keenly returned them the next day. The prize-giving family service was again well attended on the final Sunday. David managed to visit a number of schools in the area taking assemblies and giving illustrated Bible stories. For the first time he was able to obtain permission to go along to the Coleford village junior school.
1,100 Precious Seed Gospel 2012 calendars have been distributed, together with invitations to the Christmas Family service at which Ben Beckett was responsible for communicating the gospel. This event is always well attended.
Gospel literature distribution has continued in the locality including many neighbouring villages around Coleford. One man contacted has come several times to the Breaking of Bread service. He shows a keen interest to learn more of our doctrine and practice, having been familiar with more formalised church services - he has expressed interest in having Bible study.
An 18-year-old lad has been saved, having come to the Sunday School for many years - he comes to most of the gatherings and is visibly growing in the Lord.
The fortnightly 'Friday Club' for teenagers continues to prosper and although sometimes it is disrupted by the few, there are those who listen carefully to the gospel messages. The ladies meeting also prospers with two older ladies recently added to the numbers - they have asked that Bibles be purchased for them and they also wish to have regular Bible Reading notes. One of these ladies said many years ago that she would never set foot in the Gospel Hall!
The Mums and Toddlers continues to be an encouragement with twenty or so mums coming along each week – some of the toddlers have come to the Sunday School as a result of contacts made as a result of this work.
Graeme Paterson conducted children's meetings for one week in November at Winshill. Between twenty to thirty children came along each evening and a couple of parents also came in. Graeme also went into local schools to take assemblies and spoke to just under 1000 children, each receiving a gospel calendar.
At Holburn Gospel Hall, Aberdeen, the assembly again ran a Bible exhibition in early September and saw close on 300 children from local Primary 6 and 7 classes come along. Each pupil completed a work sheet and prizes were awarded for the best; copies of the Precious Seed daily reading book, Stepping Stones, were issued as prizes.
As a follow-up to the exhibition, Gordon McCracken also visited for two separate weeks in October and November. Gordon had a week's children's meetings in two school locations in the city with regular attendances of twenty to twenty-five children each evening. Prize-givings were held at the end of each week with a good number of parents attending.
In addition, access was given to around fifteen schools for school assemblies. These visits were well received, as they have been over the past few years. Prayer would be valued that the word sown in so many young hearts will yet bring forth fruit.
The saints in the assembly at Tredegar held a Bible Exhibition for two weeks in September and were greatly encouraged to see about 500 children and adults attend.
The assembly in Port Talbot have put Seedsowers into 2,000 homes along with details of their Carol Service. It was also good to have the help of a group of young believers to distribute 700 calendars to local homes.
The believers in Newcastle West would value prayer for a man called Mike, who is in his late 30's. Mike and his wife were neighbours of Andrew and Gillian Shanks, five years ago. Contact with him was lost after they moved to Newcastle West. However, last year, on the 23rd December, Andrew met Mike in the town. Mike explained that his marriage had broken down, that he had lost his job, and was now living with his mother in Newcastle West. After a good chat and an invitation to the meeting was given there was no other contact until one Sunday in March Mike turned up at the Gospel meeting. Mike now comes to most of the meetings, and, in November, he expressed to Andrew his desire to be saved. Please pray for this man. He was raised a Roman Catholic but now reads his Bible every day, and comes to meetings. How good it would be to see him truly saved and have the assurance of being so.
The Lord once again made it possible for a scripture text to be put up on a billboard sign at the main roadside through Newcastle West for two weeks in December. Please pray that God will move people's hearts in response to this.
The believers in Pozzuoli have had the joy of seeing some more people baptized. Due to lots of problems with the people who live around the hall, (during the baptisms earlier in the year, they called the police to try stop the meeting) they decided to have the baptisms in Alec and Patrizia's garden and use the children's swimming pool! There were quite a number of non-Christians present, and the Lord really blessed the word preached. How good to be able to give thanks for His grace and power!
The Sunday evening open-air meetings on the sea-front have seen crowds of adults as well as children stop, most of them staying to listen to the whole message.
The believer's have been offered the use of a hall which is twice the size of the current one. However, it is in another part of Pozzuoli; out of the city centre where they have been since the commencement of the assembly, fourteen years ago. This would be a big change for them, and they are before the Lord for His guidance. They would appreciate prayer that the Lord would make it very clear as to His will.
September 16th 2011 was an auspicious day for the saints meeting at the Klang Gospel Hall. It was the first national holiday commemorating the formation of Malaysia – an amalgamation of the peninsular with two other former British colonies of Sabah and Sarawak in 1963.
Even more significant to the Lord's people was that they celebrated 100 years of God's faithfulness and leading in the assembly, with more than 350 believers, including those from outstation assemblies, who had attended the Thanksgiving Service.
The witness in Klang began in 1911 through the effort of Mr. Chew Boon Hean, a convicted opium addict who was saved in the prison, and upon his release, he constructed a wooden Hall for meetings.
Local Christians worked alongside missionaries from Britain, Australia and New Zealand to build the assembly into what it is today. Mr. Ng Eng Yen, with his son Mr. David Ng Kong Lam, Mr. Chellappah Abishegam, Dr. G.D. James, and Mr. Lim Chin Kheng were among the early brethren who toiled for the Lord in the Klang assembly. Mr. E. V. Brewerton, Mr. T. R. Angus with his son Mr. David Angus, Mr. S. S. Adams, Mr. Bill Wilson, Mr. A. E. Phillips, Mr. William Stott and a host of other missionaries ministered God's word to the saints in Klang. Mr. and Mrs. Tom Watt from Scotland were also stationed in Klang, where he was one of the elders. From one assembly there are now five other centres housing six English, Chinese and Tamil speaking assemblies. Surely the Lord has been good!

In a dramatic commitment to driverless ride-hailing, Waymo said Tuesday that it is moving ahead with plans to put tens of thousands of driverless vehicles on public roads over the next several years.
Waymo, the driverless-technology arm of Google's Alphabet, said it will buy as many as 20,000 luxury all-electric Jaguar I-Pace compact sport utility vehicles equipped with robot technology, and deploy them in its driverless fleet.
Already, Waymo offers a small-scale driverless ride-hailing service in and around Phoenix, in Chrysler Pacifica minivans. It plans to connect that service with a ride-hailing app later this year. No other company yet offers such a service.
The announcement comes as driverless technology is under harsh scrutiny. An automated test vehicle owned by Uber struck and killed a woman walking across a street in Tempe, Ariz., last week. Questions have been raised about whether the vehicle's technology worked as intended, and a backup Uber driver was apparently distracted at the time of the collision.
Uber halted driverless-vehicle testing after the fatal crash. On Tuesday, Uber said it will not renew its permit to test autonomous vehicles on California public roads when it expires Saturday. The state Department of Motor Vehicles told the company that if it wants to return, it will need a new permit and must address investigations into the fatal crash in Arizona.
Toyota has also suspended driverless-vehicle testing, as has Nvidia, a company that makes the main processing chip for Uber's driverless system.
Waymo Chief Executive John Krafcik, meanwhile, has begun a reassurance campaign trumpeting what he sees as the company's superior technology. "We have a lot of confidence that our technology would be robust and would be able to handle situations like that one," he told car dealers at a big Las Vegas convention on Saturday.
Waymo said it will begin testing the I-Pace later this year. Already Waymo has "thousands" of hybrid Pacifica minivans on order, and will add the I-Pace to its commercial fleet in 2020 as it expands driverless ride-hailing to other cities. With 20,000 vehicles, Waymo said, it could handle 1 million rides a day.
"This is bad news for other auto manufacturers who may have been working to become Waymo's [choice]," said Alain Kornhauser, who heads the driverless transportation program at Princeton University. "To serve the billion [car] trips that occur on a typical day in the U.S., they'd need about 35 million vehicles. That's where all this is going." There were more than 260 million cars and light trucks registered in the U.S. as of late 2016, according to IHS Markit.
It's unclear how consumers will react to fatalities such as Uber's and whether that incident or others will slow down driverless-car development. Many safety experts believe driverless cars, though far from perfect, already are safer than human drivers. However, statistics to prove it may require hundreds of millions of miles of experience on public roads.
Some industry critics have called Arizona "Wild West" territory for its ultra-light approach to driverless regulation. Ducey greeted Uber to his state with great enthusiasm in late 2016, after the company encountered regulatory pushback in California. Arizona has few laws restricting the use of driverless vehicles. It doesn't require remote operators for the vehicles, for instance, and allows driverless trucks on the road.
California recently issued a new set of regulations on driverless vehicles that goes into effect April 2. Companies can apply for permits to deploy driverless vehicles with no humans inside on public roads, with a tougher set of rules than are required in states such as Arizona and Florida.
Uber ride-hailing competitor Lyft has said it plans to offer driverless services in San Francisco at some point, but has remained silent on the Uber crash. In California, ride-hailing services are governed by Public Utilities Commission regulations, which will determine when and whether individual companies can offer robot ride-hailing.
The financial stakes are high, with experts predicting that the broader driverless-car industry, including vehicles for individual purchase, could be worth up to hundreds of billions of dollars a year. All major automakers, auto suppliers and most big technology companies are seeking to position themselves as industry players, along with countless startups.
The U.S. Department of Transportation is expected to release new regulatory guidance this summer. A bill that would ease deployment of robot cars has passed the House of Representatives; a similar bill is working its way through the Senate.
Meanwhile, Jaguar is counting on the Waymo news to brighten the spotlight on the new I-Pace, the first all-electric luxury vehicle to go up against Palo Alto-based Tesla.
"The partnership with Waymo puts an exclamation point on Jaguar's comeback. Just a few years ago the company was struggling, but now they've made it clear that they're thinking far beyond their sports-car heritage and are reaping the rewards," said Jessica Caldwell, auto industry analyst at Edmunds.
The I-Pace has a $70,000 base price in the U.S. Customer deliveries are expected later this year.

Howard University Student Runs for Miss District of Columbia USA 2010
Echoe Malone was on her back, her legs extended and hands gripping each side of the workout bench as she struggled to complete the third and final set of 30 leg lifts.
"It hurts," she said as she took a deep breath "I'm trying to get the energy to bring my legs back up."
It was only 30 minutes into the hour-long workout session and she was already exhausted. Her body was sore from the repetitions of sit-ups and leg curls and lifts. Physical trainer Joseph Neil, was stern. He pushed Malone past her comfort level and ensured that she completed and properly executed each exercise.
With her stomach and legs burning, Malone finished the leg lifts only to move on to wall sits while holding dumbbells. She was in pain, but she knew she had to continue to better define the muscles in her abdomen and legs.
On Nov. 28 and 29 the 20-year-old will be vying for the title of Miss District of Columbia USA 2010 at the J.W. Marriott Hotel. Even as her schedule becomes more hectic and her training more intense, Malone exhibits a positive attitude and dedication.
Malone must stick to a rigorous workout routine and a healthy diet. With just a month to prepare, it is time for her to buckle down. Saturday evenings she works out with personal trainer Neil in the gym of a suburban apartment complex. He advises her to work out three times a week; limiting the amount of weights and focusing on repetition so that she can tone the muscles in her arms, abdomen, gluteus maximus, and legs without making her 5-foot-6, 122 pound body appear bulky. Neil instructed Malone to eat lean proteins, fruits, vegetables, and to drink plenty of water.
After leaving the training session, an inspired Malone wanted to adhere to the advice, so she decided not to eat the vegetable pizza she had gotten before her session began.
"I want to do this properly," Malone said. "I don't want to take away from the progress I make."
On a typical day Malone looks like any other college student taking the Metro to get to the Howard University campus. Yet, even when she's in a T-shirt and jeans, people notice Malone and the confidence and enthusiasm she exudes through her bright blue-green eyes and warm smile. A man who noticed the poised Malone, offered her the seat he was about to take in a train car that was nearly empty.
Malone's weekends are busy. On Fridays, Malone takes the Metro to Silver Spring, Md. where she attends one of several training sessions that fit the theme "If it's uncomfortable, it's right."
From a toned physique to a graceful walk, Malone wants to be flawless. Her mentor, Miss D.C. USA 2008 Chelsea Rodgers is pleased to help her in her quest. One Saturday, for nearly two hours, Malone and Rodgers worked on all aspects of pageantry etiquette in front of the mirror and in the hall of Rodgers' apartment. They rehearsed the best way to speak, walk, pose, and turn. She instructed Malone to stand up straight with her shoulders back and tighten her abs, glutes, hamstrings, quadriceps, and calves so that she could elegantly display her body.
Rodgers, fully aware that the positions were unfamiliar and uncomfortable to Malone's body, even threatened to snap Malone with her bracelet if she forgot to contract her muscles while walking. Ultimately, the training will pay off. Rodgers said that as Malone continues to practice, the pose and turn will become effortless.
"There's a lot of work that goes into it," Malone said. "And I'm always looking to gain another point."
Malone knows she must fight through the pain and sweat because it will ultimately make her stronger and a better contestant.
In addition to training with Neil and Rodgers once a week, she is also consulting Miss D.C. USA 2009 Nicole White. On Mondays, White helps Malone prepare for the interview by rehearsing nearly 200 questions and answers. The practice will help Malone become accustomed to the type of questions asked and help her to construct clear and logical responses.
The Miss Universe system, a joint venture of Donald Trump and NBC Universal, acknowledges women for their poise, intellect and humanitarian efforts. Judges score contestants in three categories: the interview, evening wear and swimsuit. The winner of Miss D.C. USA will receive a scholarship, cash prizes and gifts and have an opportunity to promote her platform. Miss D.C., will compete against titleholders of the 50 states for the title of Miss USA. The contestant who wins Miss USA will compete in the Miss Universe pageant.
Malone says she is aware of the negative connotation that some people associate with the name "beauty pageant," but she wants them to know that there is much more to the competition than just beauty.
"I think it shows a strong work ethic," Malone said. "The interview highlights one's intellect and the swimsuit shows one's fitness. The Miss Universe system is focused on connecting with teens and sending a positive image. It's about being yourself and being healthy."
The title would enable Malone to promote her platform of uplifting women and encouraging them to lead healthy and productive lives.
"It would be very, very big for me. It is the stepping stone I need to go forth with my goal of helping women…..I have experienced firsthand what the effects of physical and mental abuse could do to a person," Malone said. "There is something in me that makes me want to reach out to them and give them support so that they can heal from their traumatic experiences."
Winning likely would provide a boost to the junior theatre arts major's, acting career. The winner of Miss D.C. USA receives a partial scholarship to study at the New York Film Academy. Since Malone was in middle school, she has dreamed of attending the film academy. However, the dream has been hard to fulfill as a result of the significant expense.
Malone's dedication goes far beyond her training. As the first member of her family to attend college, she is committed to excelling academically. She has been on the Dean's list and has been awarded the Fine Arts Special Talent Scholarship.
As a volunteer, Malone is committed to giving back to the community. She is a spokesperson for the Washington Chiefs Inc., a non-profit organization that provides mentors at a local group home who also visit and area youth detention centers.
Malone is a member of several university organizations and is constantly acting so that she can earn her Screen Actor's Guild Card. She has been cast in three University student films. She has been an extra in the television show Lincoln Heights and the upcoming movie Iron Man 2. Malone has recently been cast in the principle role of Ruth in a remake of "A Raisin in the Sun," produced and directed by Howard's College of Arts and Sciences advisor Shay Thomas.
Malone has had success in a pageant. She won the award for most dedicated in the Miss Colorado Teen USA 2007 pageant that included 51 contestants.
"I was just staying focused. Even though I wasn't the winner they definitely saw that I was dedicated, and that I took it seriously and wanted to have fun," Malone said. "And I was a good sport!"
Malone and Rodgers believe that Malone is a strong contender – all her hard work and previous experience will be advantageous in the upcoming competition.
"She is a stunningly beautiful young lady who will grab the judges' eyes," Rodgers said. "She has everything inside of her to do well."
The hardest part of Malone's effort is obtaining sponsors. Competing is not cheap, particularly on a college student budget. The many expenses total approximately $2,300, and they include: the pageant fee, evening gown, swimsuit, interview suit, shoes, hair and makeup, physical training and transportation.
If you would like to help Malone, send donations to her PayPal account by Nov. 15 at https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr. People interested in providing services may contact her at echoemalone@aol.com . Supporters can also join her Facebook group called Echoe for Miss D.C. USA.

Pardon the rerun. You may recognize this image and quote from an October post but Leo Buscaglia's words send a bigger and brighter message this morning. Today is day 2 of 26 Days of Kindness. Leo's words state it best. "Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around." This illustrates what Buscaglia was most passionate about, speaking about love, which often is associated with the color red.
On day 2, two children from Sandy Hook are being remembered, Daniel Barden and Noah Pozner. Daniel wanted to be a firefighter when he grew up. And Noah, well, today would have been his 7th birthday. Noah has a twin sister. For her, Noah is no longer by her side.
Red, symbolizing love, intertwines Daniel and Noah together, still touching every flower when we choose to do an act of kindness and love in honor of Daniel and Noah. The rest is up to you. How will you choose to touch a flower today?
Here is the FB event or page if you want to participate. Ashley Petersen chose to do something that she possibly underestimated could touch so many people. In a few short weeks, these pages have grown by leaps and bounds and with that, so have the acts of kindness.


There will be a Meet and Greet for all interested Girls Lacrosse Athletes and Parents at 6:30pm Monday December 10th in the Old Gym. Athletes are encouraged to complete all participation forms on Arbiter Athlete prior to attending the meeting. For more information or help with Arbiter Athlete please contact Coach Moore.

Book Review: 'Jury Rigged' by Laurie Moore
A review of member Laurie Moore's latest book, Jury Rigged, ran in the Dallas Morning News on Sunday. Here are some excerpts:
"It's a wonder Laurie Moore's madcap mysteries haven't hit the big screen. The former Fort Worth cop's whodunits possess enough rowdy action, sex and rambunctious characters for a franchise.
Take the latest, Jury Rigged, third in her Cowtown police homicide series starring Cézanne Martin, a fiery, hard-driving detective with an attitude and law degree.
More Calamity Jane than Jane Marple, Cézanne has a big mouth, a badge and a Smith & Wesson five-shot just like her creator carried when she was on the job. She also has an unholstered libido.
Already the spunky sleuth has solved a couple of high-profile murders, one undercover involving the Dungeons of Decadence sex club in The Wild Orchid Society (2004). She also solved the murder of her captain's daughter, who was the secret lover of Cézanne's police partner, in The Lady Godiva Murder (2002).
On 90-day leave from the department to set up her law office, Cézanne gets a diamond ring from Sheriff Bobby Noah, who then disappears. Next, a murderess escaped from jail tries to kill her, and much to the detective's surprise, she inherits a stately brownstone on University Drive from her long-estranged dad.
But with the legacy come grasping relatives she didn't know she had, a missing brother (or is he?) and Deuteronomy Devilrow, her adolescent Voodoo-practicing ward with a harlequin Great Dane named Enigma...
Ms. Moore began writing crime fiction between classes at Texas Wesleyan University School of Law and sometimes played hooky to attend the DFW Writers Workshop, where members read and critique each other's work. Her breakthrough came when a visiting agent heard the Texan read from one of her policewoman procedurals. Perhaps Hollywood should bend an ear, too.

To prepare your mise en place, first prepare the sauce by combining the soy sauce, oyster sauce and salt in a bowl. Set aside.
Next, smash the ginger slices with your knife and mince the garlic. Slice the green onions in half vertically and then into 2" -inch pieces. Wash and spin dry the bean sprouts. Measure out the Shao Hsing rice wine into a small container. Cut the pork into matchstick pieces and set everything aside.
To cook the noodles, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the noodles. Once boiling, cook for approximately 3 minutes (or according to the directions on the package) or until the noodles are almost entirely cooked through. Once done, drain the noodles into a colander and rinse with cold water. Drain well to remove the excess water. Place the oil into the pot and add the noodles. Toss to coat with the oil.
To stir-fry the dish, line the ingredients up in the proper cooking order. Heat a wok over high heat. Once hot, add the oil, followed by the ginger, garlic and pork. Stir-fry for a minute or so to heat the pork through, being careful not to burn the aromatics.
Next, add the bean sprouts and Shao Hsing rice wine. Toss and stir-fry for about 30 seconds or until the bean sprouts just begin to soften. Add the sauce, noodles and green onions. Stir-fry for another 1 to 2 minutes until the noodles and ingredients are completely heated through and evenly coated with the sauce. Serve immediately.
Hi. This sounds like a great recipe, and I'd love to try it, but I couldn't find the recipe for Chinese barbequed pork.
Sorry, for this particular recipe we did not make the BBQ pork. You can purchase it from some Asian markets that have these sorts of delis (as we do in Vancouver) or you can try to make it yourself by searching online for recipes. Cheers!
I made a very plain (on purpose) pulled pork. I'm assuming I can just make an asian bbq sauce and coat the pulled pork with it, put it in the oven to caramelize a bit and use this in the chow mein? I know it won't be completely authentic but I refuse to go shopping for non essentials when I have food in the freezer to use up first. I also have chow mein noodles to use up, came across this recipe, and thought...Hmmm... What are your thoughts?
Yes, you can make this in the oven as you mention. You can also finish the meat in a skillet, developing some browning.
Are the noodles used in top ramen chow mein noodles? Can you talk a little more about chow mein noodles. Are they made from rice?
Chow mein noodles are wheat egg noodles, where as Top Ramen and other similar instant ramen noodles are typically not egg noodles.
This recipe is a wee bit more complicated than I anticipated. When I really mean is there are a lot more "fancy pants" ingredients than I saw coming. Also, I have Lupus, and Sprouts are a big No-No. What do you recommend instead? Just one more thing - how important is that Oyster Sauce, and is there a substitute for it? Some of my people are allergic to Seafood. Yikes!
This was an excellent recipe, might not add the salt since the soy gave it plenty for my taste but otherwise as good as a restaurant offering.


Above: My choices from the Tom Ford Soleil Summer 2015 Collection.
Above (from bottom to top): Swatches of the Cream and Powder Eye Color in Black Oyster, Naked Bronze, Golden Peach and Midnight Sea.
The first time I saw the Tom Ford Soleil Summer 2015 Collection was late last month in Dallas. I hastily swatched everything in sight at the Neiman Marcus at Northpark Center and quickly procured the Lip Color Sheer in Skinny Dip (reviewed HERE), knowing that two eyeshadows and the cream blush were en route to my house from an earlier pre-order. I was instantly taken by the rich pigment and smooth finish of the eye shadow duos and consequently couldn't wait for their arrival upon my return. Since properly photographing everything, I have been wearing the collection nonstop...it is simply that marvelous!
Above: The majority of my choices from the Tom Ford Soleil Summer 2015 Collection (not pictured...Lip Color Sheer Skinny Dip...featured later in the post).
Cream and Powder Eyeshadow in Golden Peach (reviewed HERE and currently only in stock at Neiman Marcus)...this dreamy combination features a shimmering rose gold cream shadow and a delicate warm gold powder shadow. The first day I wore this, my mom asked what I was wearing as it was different than my usual bronzy taupe eye; she said the effect was magnificent and I am apt to agree that this shadow duo is delightfully unique and universally flattering. I will be ordering a backup ASAP.
Cream and Powder Eyeshadow in Naked Bronze (available at Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom and Saks)...a radiant bronze cream eyeshadow (darker than Platinum and lighter than Spice) and cool pale gold powder shadow make for a quintessentially easy neutral eye in 10 seconds flat. I love how the matching powder shadows set the cream for well over 8 hours of creaseless wear!
Cream Cheek Color in Pink Sand (reviewed HERE and available at Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom and Saks)...a stunning debut, this sheer pink blush with a golden sheen imparts just enough color for a subtle flush while simultaneously adding a natural and radiant dewiness to the skin. Get this...I daresay, you will not regret it.
Lip Color Sheer in Skinny Dip (reviewed HERE and available at Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom and Saks)...I love this peachy pink hue; it has a lush, creamy texture, buildable pigmentation and a glowing, satin finish that makes lips look juicy and fresh. I am deeming this my new summertime neutral.

Above: I smudged it along my lower lashline for a smoky vibe.
Above: A darker eye look heightens the intensity of the existing makeup even though it is exactly the same.
Above: It's official...I have a major affinity for the Tom Ford Soleil Summer 2015 Collection.
Bottom Line: The Tom Ford Soleil Summer 2015 Collection (available at Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom and Saks) is sunkissed perfection. I am apt to remind you, dear readers, that the products discussed in this post are indeed limited edition and I have already witnessed products (like Golden Peach) sell out in a flash. I implore you to consider embracing the shades that are calling your name...they are sure to be a felicitous companion to the warmer months ahead!
What has caught YOUR eye from the Tom Ford Soleil Summer Collection?
Good things later on this week, including a fresh fragrance, a new lip color formula I'm loving, a skincare update and some enchanting product procurements.
Fantastic, Viola...I think you'll love both!
Thank you, Theresa! With regards to your question, it all depends on the coverage your are seeking. The orginal Traceless offers sheer coverage with a dewy finish and the new Traceless Perfecting (which I prefer) offers medium coverage with a natural finish that doesn't budge. As long as your skin is moisturized and primed, either is a fantastic option!
I adore this collection. I splurged on the Skinny Dip Sheer Lipstick, Golden Peach Eyeshadow and Pink Sand Blush. I'm totally smitten! I agree the Golden Peach is a gorgeous shade. It really lights up my face.
Thank you for your beautiful review. I so love your posts.
Gorgeous picks! I grabbed the Midnight Sea eye color and the Eye and Cheek Compact!
Thank you...love your choices as well!
Amazing collection! What foundation are you wearing? Your skin looks perfect!
Thank you! I am wearing Le Metier de Beaute Peau Vierge #2 and a mixture of the Napoleon Perdis Stick Foundation #3 and MustaeV Skinny Tint in Bright Beige.
I got he same three products plus Rose Soleil lipstick and the Eye and Cheek compact. I love the way these products look on you!!
That's fantastic to hear, Bella...I still have Rose Soleil on my mind ; ) Thanks for the sweet words!
Thanks for the feedback, Annie...so glad you're loving Skinny Dip...it really is the perfect summer shade!


White Citrus Wallflowers Refills, 2-Pack is rated 3.7 out of 5 by 12.
Rated 4 out of 5 by Best comment from Nice fresh smell. I love the smell. It has a fresh and relaxing fragrance.
Rated 5 out of 5 by picklebritches from Fresh & Clean My husband's favorite scent and one that usually gets comments from others like "You smell so good/fresh/etc." instead of "what are you wearing?" We love the lemony scent of the Wallflowers because it does smell so clean.
Rated 1 out of 5 by Liindsaay from Chemically, Gives Headache Smells like perfumey, chemically, synthetic, cheap cleaning solution. This scent is almost as bad as drugstore plug-ins. I don't get headaches, but this scent gives me a headache. I don't recommend it and I will be returning.
Rated 2 out of 5 by Lokalu from Nice scent - no throw This is a very pleasant scent, however, there is no throw at all. The only way I can smell it is to literally have my nose a couple inches from the wallflower. That's too bad because otherwise the scent is what I've been looking for.

Rocket To Have A Pretty Big Role In Avengers: Endgame. He is Alive for a Reason
Ankit Chaudhary
In Avengers: Infinity War we show how Thanos snap wiped out fifty percent of people on earth including some of the "Avengers." One of the heroes that survived is the Rocket Raccoon- Guardians of Galaxy star. He is said to play a crucial role in the upcoming Avengers: Endgame.
Actor Sean Gunn in a conversation to IGN teased what the character will be up to in the much-awaited movie the Avengers: Endgame. Here is what he said:
"All I can say is that Rocket gets to meet a lot of interesting new people that he has not met before in Endgame and I think I'll leave it at that."
SEE ALSO: Avengers: Endgame' Will Be Robert Downey Jr.'s Last MCU Movie: Report
Alas, he didn't reveal much about him, but as he told Rocket would confront a lot of new faces that he hasn't in the past. We expect he will have a significant role to play. Falling in line with some of the theories, he will be the one to save Tony and Nebula from outer space. If this happens, it will be a big heroic moment for him.
What Marvel has planned will be clear on April 26- the date when Avengers: Endgame will hit theaters.

Are you thinking about starting a blog for your business but aren't sure what you would post about or how often you should do it? Did you start a blog but lost steam after just a few posts, leaving your blog silent? Are you struggling to be consistent?
If this is you, keep reading. Today, I am sharing four simple steps to help you get started. I want you to leave with a realistic perspective about your first business blog and all that it will require for success long term.
Believe me, this article is as much for me as it is for you. Owning and maintaining a blog is much like trying to eat healthy. We all know what we're supposed to do, but it's so easy to get off track. For instance, I thought I was just taking two weeks off from writing during a busy spell and then BAM! It's been over three months since I have posted. And now, here I am telling you, as much as I am myself, how to set a strategy for your business blog and keep at it!
1 – Figure out the purpose of your business blog.
Before you do anything, you need to figure out who you are talking to in your blog. If you're a B2B company, you're not going to be talking to retail consumers. You'll want to focus on people who have decision making power within organizations. If you're a plumber, you might want to target both business and residential audiences. If you're a handyman for hire or a carpenter, you might want to target do-it-yourselfers and homeowners.
Whatever the audience, realize that your number one and two purposes when blogging as a business are to establish trust and provide value. You don't do that by constantly talking about yourself. People read blogs because they get something out of it. People who come back and read a blog, week after week, do so because they feel the value and identify with the writers and the topics.
Resist the urge to always talk about yourself, your products, your specials, etc. Interview one of your customers and post before and after pictures of them working with you. Tell the story of that really cool organization you were privileged to do work for. Write about the employees within your organization and what makes them special. Post your recipe for that awesome sauce that you put on top of your chicken parm sandwich. Show your readers how to make small repairs themselves. Be someone they can trust and show that you care about what they care about.
To reiterate, the purpose of your blog is to first gain trust of your potential customers, and then to provide value regularly. After that, go ahead and sprinkle in things like portraying values important to your brand, such as your style, taste, quality, or superior customer service and calls to action to schedule that HVAC inspection.
Figure this point out now and let it direct your blogging goals and topics. Stay true to growing the trust and value components of your blog.
2 – Set practical goals.
Don't commit to posting every day, every other day, or anywhere near that. When you are first starting out, it's a good idea to shoot for one post every week or two. Whatever your goal is, write it down somewhere you see regularly, to help remind yourself that this is important.
If you have someone on staff that you'd trust to write for your company, consider sharing the responsibility and tackling your blog as a team. Take turns posting from week to week. You can help each other be accountable and cover for each other during the busy times.
Realize that you are adding a new commitment to your schedule. Don't wait for the inspiration to strike you. Go, right now, and actually schedule 1.5 hour events in your calendar for writing at a time when you are likely to be able to focus on writing. Don't feel like writing when that time hits? Try anyway or try some ideas on getting over writer's block. If you aren't making progress within 30 minutes, reschedule for the next day you can.
Writing blog posts that help grow your business takes discipline for most people. Don't be surprised if it takes you two to three hours to craft your initial posts. Depending on how in-depth you're covering a topic, it could take longer. If you find you can't commit that amount of time in a given week, consider breaking a topic into two posts – one this week and one the next. The good news is you'll already know what to write about next week and you'll have the pressure of needing to finish your thoughts!
Realize there are no rules. This is your blog. If someone is really interested, they will come back. The reality is they are likely coming to your blog post well after you published it. The truth that it didn't all get posted at the same time is completely irrelevant.
If you do get inspired to write more than one post in a week, consider staging some of those to release at later times. Getting ahead of your post count goals is a great strategy when you anticipate things like vacations or extra busy periods.
Keep a running list of topic ideas somewhere. I use Wunderlist for this. Programs like Evernote or simply a Google Doc will work, too. Whenever you get an idea for a post, open up the app and jot it down in a "Blog Post Ideas" list. Prior to sitting down to write your first post, you might want to brainstorm 10-12 ideas right away to start you off.
Here are 11 generic ideas for your list.
Post a (short) poll to ask pointed questions and invite comments. Use something like Polldaddy.
Interview an employee. Have them answer 1-2 business specific questions and 2-3 personal questions. Post a picture.
Respond to news coverage events relevant to your industry.
Predict where things are going in your industry. Tell how you're preparing.
Keeping this list will help you when you aren't sure what to write about. It'll give you a healthy reservoir to draw from.
After a while, having to write for a blog all the time can seem like an immense pressure. Especially for a small business owner, who may not have other employees or the right kind of employees to post on their behalf.
Do not be hard on yourself. It is just a blog, not your day to day service or product. If you miss a week or two, try not to let it turn into three months. If it does turn into three months, forgive yourself. Open up your favorite editor and start typing something. Choose a smaller topic.
If you consistently have a hard time making your writing goals or figure out you don't like it, consider hiring a freelance or ghost writer. This is becoming a very common practice and not something you should be ashamed of. A freelance or ghost writer is simply a contract employee performing a service for you. Let me explain the differences between the two, to help decide what you're more comfortable with.
A ghost writer is someone that writes an article on your behalf. You post the article attached to your name, not theirs. Typically, a ghost writer will be paid more since they don't get to keep the attribution of the article. A freelance writer is someone who you hire to write about a particular subject, usually using their name. You might give this person a quasi-title to represent their position to you, such as "Customer Success Specialist." Many times, you can find someone that writes specifically for your niche. Sound interesting? For where to hire these folks, consider Googling for freelance writing services or try posting a job on Upwork.
Like healthy eating, having a successful blog for your business is about discipline and consistent work. Sometimes, it is fun and you're extremely proud of yourself after you make progress. Occasionally, you're going to fall behind or get stressed and be tempted to give up. I hope that these few tips have given you some simple ground to start from and some ideas for making your blogging journey a success.

Q: Will you cache some list from database into php array? I have a few "key => value" Option List store in database (MySQL)
for example status, type, main category's Name
They seems like need to query maybe 6~10 time per pages.
So I start think to cache them as array in php file.
write a function whenever the optionList is updated, update the php file also.
When will you thing caching data like this case is good ?
I will try to measure the time spend and see which spend less
(sounds like query speed VS read file speed),
Besides that what else factor should be considered ?

A: Caching is always good on data that is being read a lot but doesn't need constant updates. Even if it's being updated caching might still play a good part in your site design but can get a little more complex with managing states of data and expiration times.
It's worth looking for a caching framework (or an ORM). I don't have experience with these in PHP but some Googling should help.

Germany in turmoil after talks fail
AFP and AP, BERLIN
German Chancellor Angela Merkel, in orange jacket, yesterday leaves Bellevue Castle in Berlin after meeting with German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel yesterday was left scrambling to drag the nation out of crisis after high-stakes talks to form a new government collapsed, potentially forcing Europe's top economy into snap elections.
Germany now faces weeks, if not months of paralysis with a lame-duck government that is unlikely to take bold policy action at home or on the European stage.
However, German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier yesterday urged the various parties to reconsider their positions and make it possible to form a new government, adding that he would meet with them this week and urged them to rethink.
Merkel had been forced to seek an alliance with an unlikely group of parties after the ballot left her without a majority, but following more than a month of grueling negotiations, the leader of the pro-business Free Democratic Party (FDP), Christian Lindner, walked out of talks overnight, saying there was no "basis of trust" to forge a government with Merkel's conservative Christian Democratic Union of Germany and Christian Social Union in Bavaria (CDU-CSU) alliance and the Greens.
"It is better not to govern than to govern badly," Lindner said, adding that the parties did not share "a common vision on modernizing" Germany.
Voicing regret for the FDP's decision, Merkel vowed to steer Germany through the crisis.
"As chancellor... I will do everything to ensure that this country comes out well through this difficult time," she said.
News magazine Der Spiegel called the breakdown in negotiations a "catastrophe" for Merkel and said Germany, long seen as an island of stability, was having its "Brexit moment, its [US President Donald] Trump moment."
The Greens angrily deplored the collapse of the talks, saying they had believed a deal could be done despite the differences and accusing the FDP of negotiating in bad faith.
French President Emmanuel Macron expressed concern about Germany's political deadlock, saying: "It is not in our interest that the situation becomes tense."
