Kids absorb and model what you do. So model mindful eating. Eat slowly. Sit down at the table. Put your phone away. It's hard because as adults we have so many mindless eating habits that we're not aware of.
2. IT'S FINE FOR KIDS TO HAVE A SNACK AS LONG AS THEY'RE FOCUSED ON IT.
Sitting at the kitchen table and having them sit down is huge. Make sure they're sitting down when they're snacking, which makes them pay more attention to what they're eating.
3. PLACE FOODS IN A CONVENIENT LOCATION FOR KIDS TO REACH THEMSELVES.
In my refrigerator, kids' snacks are placed at eye level. Leave fruit where they can see it, or leave a fruit bowl on your kitchen counter. Make sure it's handy.
4. DO NOT TALK ABOUT RESTRICTING KIDS.
For older kids, they're talking about dieting or limiting food. Get rid of that language. Ask if they feel satisfied, or how something tastes. Help them be discerning eaters.
5. INVOLVE KIDS IN WHAT THEY EAT.
Have them cook and shop with you. Keep them involved in the entire process.
When kids come home, they are hungry and reach for the first thing they find. Have a snack pre-packed with their names on it and they will reach for it.

Mobile Suit Gundam – 28
January 27th, 2011 AstroNerdBoy
機動戦士ガンダム /Kido Senshi Gundam episode 28
Char is pleased with Boone's report that Miharu is aboard White Base. Miharu is in Bright's office looking for information when she's discovered by Kai. Kai takes her to his room, understanding she is a spy. When they are spotted by Amuro, Kai says she is his girlfriend whom he is dropping off at South America. When Miharu attempts to pump him for more info, he won't give it because he doesn't want White Base shot down, which would kill them both. Meanwhile, Boone and another Zeon have stolen a fishing union's plane and issued an SOS which White Base responds to. Once on board, verification of the plane is made while Boone makes contact with Miharu, who reports what little she knows. Kai returns with food for Miharu and asks if she's made contact. When she confirms this, he finds this odd and then realizes the plane has Zeons but it is too late as they leave. He makes a report to Bright but cannot reveal why he believed them to be spies.
Returning to Mad Angler, Boone presents Char with what he's learned. Char is pleased that White Base is not going to the African front since he cannot leave Mad Angler for the time being. As Boone has lost four mobile suits and pilots to White Base, he requests permission to take a mobile armor unit out to attack White Base. Char grants him use of the Grabro along with two Z'gok mobile suits and they begin an underwater assault by firing missiles up to White Base. As White base launches countermeasures, Sayla and Amuro quickly go over a plan of attack whereby she will take the G-fighter out and he will take Gundam out. Back in Kai's room, Miharu is horrified to discover the three orphaned children on board White Base, especially now that the ship has taken a few hits.
Sayla and Amuro barely launch successfully in the G-Armor as a missile hits close to their launch point. Hayato launches in a Core Fighter as Hayato prepares to go down and launch himself. Miharu wants to help defend the ship since she knows it is her report that made the attack happen, despite Kai's assurances that she didn't give enough information to cause the attack. However, since she doesn't want to sacrifice the orphaned children for her own siblings, Kai allows her to follow him. Meanwhile, another Zeon attack has rendered the launch bay for Kai's Core Fighter inoperative. Following Frau Bow's instruction from the bridge, Kai heads to Gunperry, which has been armed with anti-submarine missiles and agrees to let Miharu be his gunner since the normal gunner is busy manning a defense station.
Gundam successfully dispatches and G-Fighter comes together as White Base drops anti-sub ordinance into the water. Amuro soon comes upon Boone's Grabro while the two Z'gok's attack White Base, Hayato's Core Fighter, and Sayla's G-Fighter. Amuro finds himself at a disadvantage with the giant mobile armor unit and though his beam rifle melts one of the Grabro's claws, the other one has Gundam by the leg. Meanwhile, Hayato attacks where a Z'gok is and as it rises to counterattack, Sayla swoops in for a kill. Boone's support fire causes G-Fighter to go into the drink and Hayato has exhausted his weapons. Kai takes Gunperry and has Miharu launch several of their missiles but they miss the remaining Z'gok. Gunperry takes a hit, so Miharu goes down to launch the remaining missiles manually. This works, but she is caught in the blast and thrown out of Gunperry to die. Meanwhile, Amuro manages to destroy the Grabro and upon returning to White Base, has to tell Bright that the mystery woman Kai is weeping for was a stowaway.
Wow. I didn't expect for them to kill Miharu so quickly. I had thought we might get some interesting stuff from her but I guess not. Anyway, I find myself surprised that I actually felt more for Miharu's death than I did for Matilda's or Ryu's. Maybe it was because Miharu was doing what she did for her little brother Gil and little sister Milly and that her desire to help fight because of Kai and the orphans felt very real to me. I also believed her regret over having been a Zeon spy and her desire to be free of that. Regardless, while I didn't expect her to be killed, I did think she might get axed once she had to go and manually fire the missile. I was hoping I'd be wrong, but the scene just screamed, "She's going to die!"
Even though Kai and Miharu didn't have much of a romance, I liked how things played out. Kai again walked the line with knowing she was a spy and wanting to help her without sacrificing the ship or his comrades. Kai has proven to be pretty sharp about things over the last couple of episodes and here, he gets to play a nice guy, though smart enough not to give up the whole store. I also liked how over the course of the episode, Miharu went from addressing him as "Kai-san" to "Kai," something surely lost in English adaptations without Japanese honorific usage. Hopefully, Kai will become a better person from this as Amuro has apparently done after his little tantrums from earlier in the series.
The orphans were actually heroes in this episode. They've often been shown doing little tasks here and there and generally just being minor filler of sorts. However, when the three of them were trying to fight fires with the fire extinguisher and nearly lost their lives in an explosion that sent them literally flying down a hall into one of the bays, I briefly wondered if the kids might die or get seriously hurt. None did, thankfully. Even though the orphans haven't done much for me, there was just something so noble in three little kids using a fire extinguisher to save their home during the middle of a pitched battle. Normal kids would have been playing, not caught in combat. I wonder what will become of these three.
I have to call "bull crap" at the attack by Grabro and the two Z'goks. I know the Zeons have been shown to have high-powered explosives in small warheads, such as the small explosives they used in a failed attempt to take down Gundam. However, these Z'gok units can only carry so many of what seem like rocket propelled grenades, yet they seemed to keep bobbing up to the surface to launch barrage after barrage. The beam attack they had was something I had no problem with since the weapon could charge up again, but with the ordinance, I'm thinking, "yeah, right." Even Grabro seemed to have a giant supply of munitions to waste, enough to seemingly outclass a normal warship or submarine.
Well, White Base has been beaten up again and needs repairs. I guess they'll have to get those at the Federation base.
In the end, we had a good, action-filled episode with a lot of emotion as well with the death of Miharu. The realities of the ugliness of war…

Manae says:
Much like Amuro with Matilda, Kai never forgives himself for letting Miharu die. I won't spoil how his character changes, though. One of the good points of Gundam is that almost every major character on both sides of the battle go through personality changes and mature as the war goes on.
One of the bad points is the infinite ammo cheats left on from the Super Robot tropes. Besides missiles, I'm pretty sure even the Gundam ignores the ammo restriction on the beam rifle a few times.
I will say you won't have to worry about the kids dieing. I think that wouldn't go over very well even on today's television. The little buggers survive a lot–such as that explosion–that they really shouldn't walk away from, but they never die. Hell, Kats even climbs into a Gundam eventually.
Hell, Kats even climbs into a Gundam eventually.
Although we really, really wish that he hadn't done so…
But that's still a long ways off.
Fortunately he still has things to contribute.
I *think* that this episode marks the first appearence of a mobile armor. iirc every last one of them is a "one of a kind prototype", and unfortunately they're going to eventually start drifting into monster of the week territory – another hold-over from the old Super Robot shows that Manae already mentioned.
@Manae — Ah, so that's where the ammo thing comes from. *lol*
As to the explosion, I actually didn't have a problem in this episode with them not getting seriously hurt (they were stunned for a while). It just felt right based on where they were that the force of the blast sent them flying.
@Junior — Yeah, this was the first mobile armor appearance.
As to the "monster of the week" stuff, I already see that to a degree as they continue to roll out new units for Gundam to overcome.
Didn't necessarily mean they should have died from it, just in general the kids go through a lot.
At least the mobile armors, despite the the "Monster of the Week" roots, get to be lored as test-bed one-offs. I can only think of one non-amphibious mobile suit (the Gyan) that gets that distinction. The mobile armor concepts do get passed on, culminating in the for-mass-production Elmeth and Big Zam seen later in the series.
I can't think of any other non-amphibious mobile suit that doesn't see mass production even in the series or some extended stories. Of the amphibious ones, you haven't seen the last of the Z'Gok type, and an upgraded type of the Gogg sees use in a side story.

One of the biggest complaints we hear is that self-help tools and DIY courses simply do not work. Of course they don't. If you understood what they said and how those tools worked, you probably wouldn't need them in the first place right? Yep! Well, you can toss all those DIY money and budget books that just confuse and frustrate you to no end right out the window.

Successful designers introduce young associates to Market for incomparable training, their perspective on trends, and to enjoy the 'deer in the headlights look' when they arrive in downtown High Point. The newbies experience sensory overload and rave about their favorites while veterans seek the engaging story behind the innovations, match them to their clients' tastes, and calculate profitability.
While the discovery of signature brands is a key motivator, many designers go a step further, targeting vendors for complete customization. Steve Rome of VergesRome Architects of New Orleans has traveled to Market since 1993, often bringing younger associates, and often bringing clients, as he shops for his high-end commercial and residential projects. "If I can't find what I want, I'll work up a quick sketch, share it with my rep, and they'll build it. Younger designers should know they may have that option. Many are unaware of the sheer scope of resources at both ends of the price spectrum that can be found in High Point," said Rome.


So Salamanca banks are not lending as freely these days huh? The credit crunch that seized the New York economy recently is gone and they are starting to lend again. But even with this lending the economy is still reeling and headed for even more dire straits. If you are one of those in Salamanca NY who is caught in its clutches and have debts piling up, you may want to think about Salamanca consolidation loans.
Who has the best Salamanca debt consolidation services?
Salamanca consolidation services offer a way of taking multiple debts and taking them all and wrapping them together into one payment. So if you have 5 different Salamanca loans, each with a different interest rate and length, a Salamanca debt consolidation loan will pay these off and then you will be left with one Salamanca loan with a total on the loan of all the paid off loans. The best part is that these types of Salamanca consolidation loans typically have lower interest rates than the ones you are getting rid of.
What is the best place in New York to find Salamanca credit consolidation lenders?
Search online for the best debt consolidation lenders in Salamanca NY. The reason the best place to find Salamanca debt consolidation lenders in New York is because you will be able to find the right Salamanca lender for you. Your local Salamanca banks may not specialize in the right Salamanca consolidation loans for you or have New York lending standards that are too stringent. By searching for the best New York debt consolidation loans online, you can assure yourself of getting the right Salamanca loan.
As I said above, prior to the credit crunch we had basically "easy money" whereby the Salamanca banks were encouraged to lend to pretty much anyone in New York with a pulse. As the economy tanked and their Salamanca debts mounted, a large portion of these people who got easy credit are now looking for Salamanca credit consolidation programs. These Salamanca loans can be obtained but they are just like any other Salamanca loan. Your New York credit rating, your ability to repay the Salamanca loan, an availability of collateral to secure the loan and the current Salamanca bank policies on New York lending will determine if you get a Salamanca consolidation loan or not.
Where Is The Best Salamanca Loan Consolidation Service?
As I discussed above, the typical Salamanca loan consolidation service usually has a lower interest rate than the standard New York loan that is putting you in the poor house. Be aware that just because you are in trouble with your Salamanca monthly payments, does not mean that you will automatically get Salamanca loan consolidation.
Where Can I find The Best Salamanca Debt Consolidation Help?
I spoke of collateral before and this is a big aspect of why Salamanca debt consolidation lenders may give you Salamanca loan consolidation. Unsecured Salamanca loans are the riskiest loans to give by a New York lender. This is because if the Salamanca loan is defaulted on, the bank cannot get the money back. By requiring collateral to provide security on a loan (as some Salamanca banks do for Salamanca debt consolidation loans) the bank reduces their risk for the loan. A secured Salamanca loan allows the lender to offer the loan to you and then to offer the Salamanca loan at a reduced interest rate. Be careful to make sure you pay off the Salamanca credit card consolidation loan on time. If you were required to put up collateral and you default, the Salamanca bank will take that collateral as a way to recoup their loss.
At MyCDC.org, we offer the highest quality Salamanca credit consolidation programs that are available online throughout the USA. Mycdc offers this online by providing you with a custom Salamanca credit consolidation plan that will help you to consolidate your unsecured debts, and also fit your budget, while helping you to reach your goal of Financial FREEDOM!
Salamanca Consolidation Loans -- Our online credit consolidation service will consolidate debt without the need of a loan. Your custom Salamanca credit consolidation program will consolidate your debts by negotiating with creditors to get YOU a lower repayment amount without the RISK of any type of high interest New York debt consolidation loans!
Salamanca Customer Service -- MyCDC.org is committed to using the highest level of Customer Service in the credit consolidation industry. Once enrolled in a credit consolidation program, a trained, personal debt counselor will be assigned to your account. Your debt counselor will review your debts and financial situation and develop a custom credit consolidation solution based on YOUR personal Salamanca debt situation and needs.

Q: Why do I need to adjust after convert point? My scene is setup scene > world: sknode > camera: sknode > ship: SKSpriteNode
I want the ship to point to the location of the touch:
override func touchesBegan(touches: Set<UITouch>, withEvent event: UIEvent?) {

  let touchLocation = touch.locationInNode(self)
  let location      = cameraNode.convertPoint(touchLocation, toNode: world)

  moveCameraNode(CGPointsToVector(location, b: cameraNode.position))

  let shipTouchPosition = scene?.convertPoint(touchLocation, fromNode: world)
  let shipPosition      = scene?.convertPoint(ship.position, fromNode: world)

  let angle = atan2(shipTouchPosition!.y - shipPosition!.y, shipTouchPosition!.x - shipPosition!.x)

  let magicNumber = CGFloat(M_PI_2)
  ship.runAction(SKAction.rotateToAngle(angle - magicNumber, duration: 0.1, shortestUnitArc: true))
}

override func didFinishUpdate() {
  centerOnNode(cameraNode)
}

func centerOnNode(node: SKNode) {
  let cameraPositionInScene = node.scene?.convertPoint(node.position, fromNode: node.parent!)
  node.parent!.position = CGPointsSubtract(node.parent!.position, b: cameraPositionInScene!)
}

So, it now works ok but I'm not sure why I need the magicNumber.
EDIT: Thanks to @mundi for catching a stupid error on my part which was obscuring my real question of what I'm doing wrong with convertPoint that I have to adjust it afterwards.

A: Angles are calculated in radians. 360 degrees are 2 times the constant PI, or 2 * M_PI. In SpriteKit, angle calculations start from center right (equivalent to 3 o'clock), corresponding to 90 degrees or one half PI, M_PI_2.
80 read as radians evaluates to 1.46018 which is very close to M_PI_2 or 1.57079. This is why this number appears to "magically" fix this discrepancy, even though it is slightly off. The true "magic" number is CGFloat(M_PI_2).

Q: how do i create html table like on the picture i have a 3 table and im doing inner join in the output below

how can i achive something like this

so far i already have code for expanding the row. the real problem here is how do i get all the  signatoryname for each tracknum. im using php and html
this is my code

                    Track Number
                    Document Title
                    Document Type
                    Date Filled

                <?php while ($r = $q->fetch()): ?>

                            <?php echo $r['tracknum'] ?>
                            <?php echo $r['doctitle'] ?>
                            <?php echo $r['doctype'] ?>
                            <?php echo $r['datefilled'] ?>

<?php echo $r['signatoryname'] ?>

                <?php endwhile; ?>

for the table to expand

this is the output of the code

i need to group the data below by tracknum but i need the signatoryname
i want the html row to be expandable and list the signatoryname of that tracknum bellow it. thanks.
update: so far this is my code
UPDATE: below is the correct code:
<?php
                require_once 'dbconfig.php';
                try {
                    $conn = new PDO("mysql:host=$host;dbname=$dbname",
                            $username, $password);
                    // execute the stored procedure
                    $sql = 'CALL sp_trasactionsignatory()';
                    $q = $conn->query($sql);
                    $q->setFetchMode(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
                } catch (PDOException $pe) {
                    die("Error occurred:" . $pe->getMessage());
                }
                ?>

                    Track Number
                    Document Title
                    Document Type
                    Date Filled

                <?php while ($r = $q->fetch()): ?>

                            <?php echo $r['tracknum'] ?>
                            <?php echo $r['doctitle'] ?>
                            <?php echo $r['doctype'] ?>
                            <?php echo $r['datefilled'] ?>

                        <?php

                        require_once 'dbconfig.php';
                        try {

                        $conn = new PDO("mysql:host=$host;dbname=$dbname",
                            $username, $password);

                        $_tempp1 = $r['tracknum'];
                        $stmt = $conn->prepare("CALL sp_gettransactsignatory(?)");
                        $stmt->bindParam(1, $_tempp1, PDO::PARAM_STR, 30);
                        $stmt->execute();
                        while ($row = $stmt->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC)){
                            echo "
" . $row['signatoryname'] . "
";
                        }

                        } catch (PDOException $pe) {
                    die("Error occurred:" . $pe->getMessage());
                }

                        ?>

                <?php endwhile; ?>

A: Problem:
How do I get all the signatoryname for each tracknum?
Solution:
Your very first initial query would be like this,
(Since you didn't provide the table name, change the table name from the below queries)
$q = $connection->query("SELECT tracknum, doctitle, doctype, datefilled FROM tablename GROUP BY tracknum");

Then comes to your table,

    Track Number
    Document Title
    Document Type
    Date Filled

<?php while ($r = $q->fetch_assoc()): ?>

        <?php echo $r['tracknum']; ?>
        <?php echo $r['doctitle'] ?>
        <?php echo $r['doctype'] ?>
        <?php echo $r['datefilled'] ?>

    <?php
        $result_set = $connection->query("SELECT signatoryname FROM tablename WHERE tracknum = {$r['tracknum']}");
        while ($row = $result_set->fetch_assoc()){
            echo "
" . $row['signatoryname'] . "
";
        }
    ?>

<?php endwhile; ?>

Don't forget to change the tablename in both the queries.
Edited:
If you using PDO extensions to execute your queries then you can do something like this,
<?php
    $_tempp1 = $r['tracknum'];
    $stmt = $connection->prepare("SELECT signatoryname FROM tablename WHERE tracknum = :tracknum");
    $stmt->bindParam(':tracknum', $_tempp1, PDO::PARAM_STR, 30);
    $stmt->execute();

    while ($row = $stmt->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC)){
        echo "
" . $row['signatoryname'] . "
";
    }
?>


MONTVALE, N.J. -- A Montvale grandmother of 10 who was already facing major drug charges in Rockland County was arrested after authorities said she sold Oxycodone to an undercover detective, authorities said Friday.
Linda Famelico, 60, again posted bail -- this time $20,000 -- and was released from the Bergen County Jail early Thursday, records show.
Famelico and her husband, Aniello, also 60, were awaiting trial after the Rockland County Drug Task Force and Orangetown police charged them in May with operating a large-scale operation from a Pearl River apartment.
Authorities reported finding nearly 2,000 prescription pills -- including Oxycontin, Xanax and Suboxone, -- along with more than five pounds of pot, three ounces of marijuana wax, THC Gummy Candy and $18,000 in cash during a raid there.
Linda Famelico, who now lives on Forest Avenue, was carrying nearly three dozen Oxycodone pills for sale when she was arrested on Wednesday, acting Bergen County Prosecutor Gurbir S. Grewal said Friday morning.
She was charged with various counts of drug distribution and possession -- including doing so within 1,000 feet of both Pascack Hills High School and the Fieldstone Middle School.
Mahwah police assisted Montvale and the prosecutor's office in the arrest, Grewal said.
An Aug. 10 first appearance was scheduled in Municipal Court.

The W47 warhead reentry vehicle
The W47 was an American thermonuclear warhead used on the Polaris A-1 sub-launched ballistic missile system. Various models were in service from 1960 through the end of 1974. The warhead was developed by the Lawrence Radiation Laboratory between 1957 and 1960.[1]
The W47 was 18 in (460 mm) in diameter and 47 in (1,200 mm) long, and weighed 720 lb (330 kg) in the Y1 model and 733 lb (332 kg) in the Y2 model. The Y1 model had design yield of 600 kilotons and the Y2 model had a doubled design yield of 1.2 megatons. [2] The W47 was the first warhead with a new, miniaturized pit.[3] The aerodynamic flare at the base provided stability of orientation during descent. Two small rocket motors were used to spin the warhead for better stability and symmetry during reentry.
Live fire testing
The W47 is the only US ICBM or SLBM warhead to have been live fired in an atmospheric missile and warhead test, on May 6, 1962. This event took place during shot Frigate Bird which was part of the Dominic test series. While stationed off Johnston Island, the American submarine USS Ethan Allen fired a Polaris-A2 missile at an open ocean target point in the vicinity of Palmyra Atoll, south of Hawaii. The missile traveled a distance of 1,020 nmi (1,890 km; 1,170 mi). The test was observed by two submerged US submarines stationed approximately 30 miles from the target point, the USS Carbonero and the USS Medregal. The missile warhead detonated at 23:30 GMT on May 6, 1962, approximately 2 km from the designated target point, and at the target altitude of 11,000 ft (3,400 m). The detonation was successful and had the full design yield of approximately 600 kilotons. The shot was designed to improve confidence in the US ballistic missile systems, though even after the test there was considerable controversy. This was partly because it was revealed that the warhead selected for the test had undergone modifications before testing and was not necessarily representative of the stockpile.[4]
Reliability controversy
The history of the W47 warhead had a serious series of reliability problems with the warhead design. 300 of the EC-47 production prototype model were produced from April 1960 through June 1960, and were all promptly retired in June 1960 due to reliability concerns. Production of Y1 and Y2 models then proceeded in 1960 through 1964. A total of 1060 Y1 and Y2 models were produced, but they were found to have so many reliability problems that no more than 300 were ever in service at any given time. In 1966, 75% of the stockpiled Y2 warheads were thought to be defective and unusable. Repair programs continued for some time.
A number of the Polaris warheads were replaced in the early 1960s, when corrosion of the pits was discovered during routine maintenance.
Failures of the W45, W47, and W52 warheads are still an active part of the debate about the reliability of the US nuclear weapons force moving into the future, without ongoing nuclear testing.[5]
A one-point safety test performed on the W47 warhead just prior the 1958 moratorium (Hardtack/Neptune) failed, yielding a 100-ton explosion. As the test ban disallowed testing needed for inherently safe one-point safe design, a makeshift approach with a boron-cadmium wire folded in the pit during manufacture, and pulled out by a small motor during the warhead arming. The wire had a tendency to become brittle during storage, and break or get stuck during arming, preventing complete removal and rendering the warhead a dud. It was estimated that 50-75% of warheads would fail. This required a complete rebuild of the W47 primaries.[6] The oil used for lubricating the wire also promoted corrosion of the pit.[7]

The Bowen Chemical Research Unit grew from the Royal Australian Air Force's Special Duties Flight Detachment, No.1 Aircraft Performance Unit, which had been formed at RAAF Laverton, Victoria. The RAAF unit was part of a larger collection of facilities at Innisfail and the Australian Field Experimental Station (AFES) at Proserpine and specialised in the delivery of chemical and special warfare for research units in the region.
The RAAF unit moved to Bowen in early 1944 and shared the airstrip with the RAAF 9 Squadron. When the 9 Squadron moved out, the Chemical Research Unit took over the airfield and formed as a separate unit on the 15 August 1944. It was eventually disbanded in December 1945.
Following the departure of the 9 Squadron RAAF, the Chemical Research Unit took command of all the facilities on the Bowen Airstrip and in December 1944 it constituated 12 officers and 112 airmen. The unit was equipped with Vultee Vengence A27 and Beaufort A9 aircraft. It was divided into four sections: a headquarters; a flying and technical flight; a meteorological flight; and a medical research section. The headquarters and flying and technical flight were located at Bowen, but the unit aircraft mainly operated out of Cairns.
The main task of the Chemical Research Unit was low-level spraying and low/high level bombing support to the units at Innisfail and Proserpine. Munitions were stored at the Bowen Aerodrome as canisters and bombs. The aircraft would load at Bowen and then drop bombs or spray at North Brook Island, Mission Beach or Mourilyan Harbour and then fly to Cairns. The route was reversed every few days. In the case of inclement weather, the unit would fly out to sea and jettison the ammunition to avoid risk of accident on return.
Ammunition stored at the airstrip consisted of 65 lbs bombs, 44 gallon and 540 lbs drums, mustard gas and other chemicals.

With second semester's Club Day coming up tomorrow, students will be looking to join clubs, but may not know of the new clubs offered on campus in 2017. Read more to find out which clubs are new to Palo Alto High School and why you should sign up and get involved.
Club president junior Keahi Asing says that "R.O.C.K. stands for "Reach Out. Care. Know," and is dedicated to mental health awareness and advocacy.
"We want to build a strong community that supports itself, and ROCK focuses on educating kids like us on peer counseling so that we are all prepared if a friend, or anyone really, comes to us needing help," Asing said.
According to club co-president junior Sarah Shader, the club will focus on two aspects in regards to nature: preservation and appreciation.
"My friend [and club co-president junior] Julie [Cornfield] and I realized that there wasn't an environmental club this year like there's been in past years, and so we decided we wanted to start our own," Shader said.
Shader says the club will gather in and out of school.
Club president junior Maddy McNee says that this new club hopes to turn beach volleyball into an official Paly varsity sport in the future, and that making a club is the first step to getting there.
The team will practice regularly and compete in local tournaments, according to McNee.
Club president junior Kesavan Soundararajan says Board game club is made to unite those with a love for board games, both the classics and cutting edge.
This new club aims to help students turn their ideas into actions that will impact their communities, specifically regarding social justice issues, according to club president sophomore Kristina Im.
YIBI, or Youth International Business Initiative, is a business club that aims to recruit students that are interested in business and learning more about business. It is currently an organization that exists off campus, so club president sophomore Eric Yap brought a branch of YIBI to Paly. The club plans to order Fortune magazines to read and discuss, listen to business speakers, and compete in conferences.
This club is dedicated to giving students a place to relax and unwind while watching Justice League episodes, according to club president sophomore Robin De Lorenzo.
"Justice League Club is a feel-good club, so if people have quizzes or tests coming up, they can just come here and have fun watching cartoons," De Lorenzo said.
According to club co-president junior Maya Homan, the club aims to showcase diverse perspectives within local communities.
SCOOP, or, Student Cooperative for Openness and Opportunity in Press, is a club aimed at finding ways to enhance diversity within journalistic staffs and within news coverage. The club aims to discover how to remove bias in news covering certain genders, religions, and races. This will be carried out through discussions about many topics such as current articles. It also hopes to emphasize the importance and need for diversity in media coverage. Additionally, students in the club will have the opportunity to write articles and listen to guest speakers.
Editor's note: staff writer Soumya Jhaveri is the president of SCOOP club.
According to club president Ria Pai, the club aims to educate students about marine biology in an enjoyable way.
According to club vice president Maya Wilson, students will gather to write and discuss their ideas.
"We're going to start off with a warmup to wake you up a little bit then we're going to do some prompt or journaling responses and lastly we're going to finish it off with a sharing period where we share what we wrote about or discuss the prompt," Wilson said.
Club president sophomore Eileen Ha says that Pet Pals will be committed to making toys, beds, accessories and other items for their pets and for animals in local shelters.
This new club will inform members about archery and encourage students to try out archery, according to club president junior Andrew Suk.


Demir Kapija is a small town, located on the left bank of the Vardar river in the Povardarie region in southern part of Macedonia. It's the seat of Demir Kapija municipality and it's the smallest town along the river Vardar and the Povardarie region as well.
According to the 2002 census, Demir Kapija had 3,275 inhabitants. Demir Kapija lies at an altitude of 110 meters above the sea level.
The E-75 international route, which in Macedonia is a modernized motorway is passing by Demir Kapija, and connects Demir Kapija with Negotino (20km), Veles (50km) and Skopje (100km) on the north and Gevgelija on the south. A railway within the same route exists. Demir Kapija is an important railway stop in this part of Macedonia.
Demir Kapija is also home to the largest mental institute in Macedonia - The Special Institute. The Special Olympics team from this institute is well noted in football and track and field events.
Demir Kapija is known as for the production of red paprika, tobacco and for it's wineyards.
The name Demir Kapija is preserved from the Ottoman period, which means literally means Iron Gate. This is probably becase of the great geo-strategic location of the ancient town of Prosek, that was used as a stronghold and the enemies couldn't conquer it.
The Demir Kapija surroundings are under the influence of the mediteranean (aegean) climate. It's also a national monument of nature and an ornithological reserve, home to many rare species of birds and endemic plants.

Grace Buchholz is a Research Fellow in history at Sproglit, an educational software company, has contributed to the History News Network, and is working on a book about strongman leaders from Edward IV to Vladimir Putin.
Watch Kaliningrad. This oft-forgotten Russian enclave, squeezed between Poland and Lithuania on the Baltic Sea, may be the focal point for a dangerous economic and military conflict between Russia and NATO.
In April 2017 a battalion of NATO troops marched up to Poland's Kaliningrad border, to demonstrate to Russia that NATO is alert to the risk. In September, Russia will amass 13,000 troops for war games in neighboring Belarus. But why should a small place like Kaliningrad, about the size of Trinidad and Tobago, matter? The answer is found in Russia's 300-year quest for warm-water ports, and the lethal action it has often taken to secure them.
Kaliningrad gives Russia its only port on the Baltic coast that does not freeze during the winter. But President Vladimir Putin has a problem. Kaliningrad is cut off from Russian control by hundreds of miles of Latvian and Lithuanian terrain. This problem should sound familiar. From 1991-2014 Crimea, another warm-water region, was cut off from Russia. Russia's 2014 march through Ukraine to Crimea gave it swift access to the Mediterranean. Today Vladimir Putin plots to link Kaliningrad to the heart of Mother Russia, provoking shivers in NATO generals. At the G20 Summit on July 6th, 2017 President Donald Trump did pledge to uphold NATO's Article 5, mutual protection clause. But Kaliningrad is a long way from the concerns of the Oval Office.
Putin's ambition to link Russia's vast landmass to warm water is not a newfound passion; past Russian strongmen and strongwomen have shared his thirst for warm water. When Peter the Great ascended to czardom in 1682, he studied the West and soon realized that Russia's icy waters and frozen docks retarded its naval and maritime dexterity. While Portugal could devote twelve months a year to seafaring, Russian merchants were incapacitated by the winter and hibernated alongside the country's brown bears.

What a load of rubbish, hyperbole pure and simple.
I clicked on the "read full article" just to confirm my fears that I got after the first few paragraphs that this would not include one single iota of evidence, not a quote from Putin, not a quote from a Russian general, not even a quote from a Russian military blog, and I was right.
The top comment on the article gives a good response to this so I don't really have to.
More anti-Russian propaganda, surprised this isn't in today's Guardian.

I disagree. Russian officials couldn't openly say that they wanted to march through Lithuania to link up Kaliningrad for the world's media to hear could they? There are obvious reasons for them wanting to carry out such a movement, and that is evidence in itself. They have done that sort of thing before (Crimea) haven't they? There is every reason for Putin to want to link up Kaliningrad, without kicking up a stir and making it obvious when an offensive will take place.
Sorry but I think you're are wrong, invading a sovereign Nato state with no pretext is not "that sort of thing" when compared to what happened in Crimea. Ukraine was and is an absolute mess, the west of the country are pro EU, the east and Crimea are overwhelmingly pro Russian, the leader of Ukraine was also pro Russian, hence the reason for the US backed coup to remove him. The people of Crimea voted in favor of joining Russia by over 95% with an over 85% turnout, something the media never mentions when talking about it. There will be… Read more »
Not just the US but the euorocrats in Brussels and Berlin. DO NOT leave out how much the EU stood to gain by further isolating Russia. Also giving Russia a reason to build the Nordstream 2 and there by give Germany and coincidentally Mrs.Merkel more power in Europe by being the only operable ingress point for Russian energy. Which is the only card the visegrad group can play in EU power plays that all gas has to currently be piped across they're countries. A little hard to do when the Ukraine is in civil war.

Russia is not stupid. Comparing the invasion of Crimea to a possible Baltic attack is not even worth discussing. They are completely different situations. The Baltics are of little value and are NATO members. Attacking them is pointless and starts WW3.
This is a terrible article backed up by zero evidence. Disappointing UK Defence Journal. Must be a slow news day.
David Steeper
Wo the trolls (Kieran etc) have stopping bothering to hide what they are now. I have no doubt that Putin would love a land corridor to Kaliningrad but so long as we all stand by article 5 ther's nothing to worry about. Putin is a smarter version of Mussolini not a Hitler. He has a pretty good idea of the result of a war with NATO for his regime and that is it's philosophy stay in power, keep getting rich and keep a dumb population distracted.
Don't quite understand your first sentence?
He's calling you a troll, pretty simple really !!

Now You See Me Review
Filed under: Reviews — Leave a comment
A star studded cast embark on a game of cat and mouse as the FBI and Interpol attempt to catch four magicians who use the disguise of their magic show to conduct bank heists and give the stolen money to their audiences. This band of magicians are known as The Four Horsemen and are each solo artists brought together by a mysterious hooded figure and a series of tarot cards. When together the group pull off these bank heists as a way of being allowed entry to an exclusive group of magicians known as 'The Eye'.
"The closer you think you are, the less you'll actually see"
The film opens every bit as you might expect: introducing the four characters separately, allowing for the audience to quickly get to know them and acknowledge their traits before they are put into the group dynamic. Up first is street magician J. Daniel Atlas (Jesse Eisenberg) whose opening trick is cleverly conducted to work on the audience as well; then comes Merrit McKinney (Woody Harrelson), a mentalist who uses his 'gift' to find out dirty secrets about people and extort them of their money. The only female member of the group is Henley Reeves (Isla Fisher), an escapologist and former assistant to J. Daniel Atlas. These three are joined by the only one of the magicians whose actual tarot card links to the Four Horsemen of mythology: Jack Wilder (Dave Franco) who seems to be more like a con artist than magician. These opening scenes are every bit as exciting as you would hope and introduce our heroes as being likeable characters, so much so that it has you gripped form the very beginning.
Jump one year later. Now we're in Las Vegas watching the Four Horsemen put on a show under the watchful eye of benefactor Arthur Tressler (Michael Caine) and magician defrauder Thaddeus Bradley (Morgan Freeman). Here it is that the magicians pull off the bank heist that gets them noticed by the FBI. However, what the audience will notice is just how long this scene drags out and unfortunately it isn't the only one. As with the case with real life magic shows, the magicians tend to lengthen things out, giving long speeches and explaining what they're going to do before they do something completely different. While this may be all fine and well at real magic shows, when you have less than two hours on a cinema screen some of the waffle has to be cut down.
"These guys, they're tricky"
But then that's why Jesse Eisenberg impresses the most. If it wasn't for Eisenberg's charisma then perhaps Now You See Me would run the risk of being slightly dull, but every time Eisenberg appears on screen he hastens up the pace (if not only for his fast talking) but he inhabits the character; it feels like Eisenberg is the only one who has done his research and knows about magicians… which isn't really surprising considering he was the first name attached to the project.
The other horsemen each have their own moments of glory (although arguably Isla Fisher's comes at the beginning and never really rears it's head again) with Harrelson providing a few sporadic laughs throughout, while Dave Franco provides one of the most exciting sequences of the piece in a fight scene with FBI agent Mark Ruffalo where trick mirrors, slight of hand and playing cards all come into use. It really stands out as one of the best action scenes of the summer which is remarkable considering the strength and special effects of the other blockbusters such as Iron Man 3 or Star Trek Into Darkness.
"Want to know how they did it? Just say the magic word"
While each individual actor gets their moment in the limelight at one point or another, it is a slight downfall that the four central characters seem to have very little chemistry with one another. The conversations at times seem jarred and the jokes not as free flowing as you would expect. Perhaps the worst part of the film is the completely unbelievable relationship between Mark Ruffalo's character and the Interpol agent played by Melanie Laurent. Even the two actors don't seem invested in that storyline.
Throughout the film there are (almost too many) hints towards the fact that there is going to be a twist so part of the fun comes from guessing what that twist is going to be. There is a little foreshadowing throughout but the reveal should still come as a surprise. It's a great idea, but arguably poorly executed which is where it is going to be let down. However, this is just a small problem compared to the plot holes scattered throughout the plot and the pointlessness of Michael Caine's character.
"First rule of magic: always be the smartest guy in the room"
Had it been released at any other time of the year Now You See Me could have very easily run the risk of bombing in the box office. But this is summer and people expect certain things from a summer blockbuster: they want to laugh, be entertained, see great action sequences, wonderful set pieces and big budget effects. And that's what Now You See Me can deliver. It has it's flaws but all in all is a thoroughly enjoyable film that can be filed under 'hit' for director Louis Leterrier.
My Rating: 6/10

Are you a serious angler that wants to take their fishing to an entirely new level? If so, then the purchase of a high quality fish can seriously improve your overall ability to find and catch trophy fish. While depth finders can become very pricey, generally speaking you get what you pay for. With technology rapidly increasing almost on a daily basis you can now find fish finders that have more features than some brand-new luxury cars. Often times you find fish finders that come equipped with Wi-Fi that can easily be synchronized directly to your phone. If you're looking to take your fishing game to an entirely new level, then getting yourself a high quality fish finder is the first step you should take. More often than not people will ask questions like "What are the best saltwater fishfinders?", "What are the best budget fish finders?" and "What are the best deals on fish finders?" Here's our list for the top 5 fishing depth finders for the money in 2019.
If you're in the market for a fish finder, you'd be doing yourself a disservice if you didn't take a look at this one. This fish finder is truly unique because it allows you the ability to both attach it to the side of the boat so you can easily scan for fish below, but it also allows you the ability to cast it directly from your fishing rod so you can easily map the terrain features and fish below the exact location you plan to fish. This is something that sets this fish finder apart from most of the fish finders you will currently find on the market. Its built-in GPS is the first of its kind to allow an angler to simply cast the sonar out, reel it in, and then watch as the information is plotted directly onto your smart phone, right before your eyes. Not only will you have this information plotted on your smart phone within a matter of seconds, but you also have the ability to share this information on any computer with friends, family or simply for later reference. The sonar links up with both iPhone's and Androids meaning it's compatible with just about any smart phone currently on the market. This fish finder links up directly to your phone through Wi-Fi, very similar to a hotspot making it one of the best fishfinders on the market. This means you do not need Internet for this fish finder to work properly and you can simply turn off your cellular data if you wish to have an uninterrupted fish finder to phone connection. You can use this fish finder from the shore, from the side of a large boat, while kayak fishing and even used as an ice fishing fish finder. This is the one fish finder to rule them all. If you're currently on the market for a fish finder then you wouldn't go wrong by picking up a Sonar PRO+.
This fish finder features a 4.3"high definition display that is rated at 'all whether' meaning you don't need to worry about any of the electronics within the display getting damaged or broken due to inclement weather or moisture. This fish finder comes equipped with dual channel sonar. The first being a wide spectrum, CHIRP down vision sonar which gives you angler photo like images making it easy to distinguish terrain and other objects in the water which can easily provide you reliable data up to 600 feet deep. The second is a more conventional CHIRP sonar which is generally used for targeting fish. Like many other fish finders this one has Wi-Fi built in. This allows the angler to easily stream live sonar data directly to their smart phone through the use of Raymarine's mobile app called Wi-Fish. This app allows you to easily save, share and rewind data captured from the fish finder. This means you can easily share data with friends and family but you can also keep this data for your personal records and later use. The aspect ratio is 16:9 and this fish finder also comes with over 20,000 lakes and rivers throughout Canada and the United States already programmed into its system. Mounting system is flexible and adjustable meaning it can be maneuvered in any position to suit each specific angler's needs. If you're looking for a high quality and reliable fish finder, you may have found the perfect one.
Humminbird has been one of the top brands for over 40 years and they've been in this game from the very beginning. This fish finder may not be big and bulky like some of the others, but in this situation, size doesn't matter. The display on this fish finder is a 5 inch color WVGA display making it very easy to read and distinguish specific features and colors depending on the information your sonars picking up. This fish finder allows you to quit chasing the fish, but instead puts control in your hands allowing you to find the fish, and spend more time fishing. This fish finder comes equipped with Humminbird Basemap which includes over 10,000 lakes and coastlines within the United States. Showing you accurate depth contours, points of interest and navigation aids helping you to effectively and easily maneuver through lakes, rivers, streams and coastlines. If you're looking for a small but powerful fish finder that has been tried and tested by countless anglers, then this fish finder is the perfect match for you. We hope our hummingbird fish finder reviews help you to make the right decision in regards to which fishing sonar is the right one for your needs.
Garmin is proud to announce its new echoMAP CHIRP that comes in combination with ClearVu scanning sonar technology. This means that you have the ability to see more clearly what's truly in the water around your boat. This high-frequency sonar creates the clearest picture of just about any sonar currently on the market. It creates a near photographic image of terrain, structures and fish making it easy for anyone to see and understand what's in the surrounding waters. This fish finders CHIRP sonar has the ability to create even crisper fish arches in comparison to its competition with even better target separation. The built in 5 Hz GPS updates your positioning five times every second making it accurate and easy to mark and return to any waypoint with ease. The display is clear and easy to read even at a distance making it ideal for anglers of all ages. You can easily adjust the screen to feature a split screen between waypoints, depths, mapping and fish targeting which makes this fish finder extremely customizable and interchangeable from angler to angler. Garmin has created an exceptional fish finder that can be appreciated and used by anglers of all skill levels. If you're on the market for a fish finder that is backed by a brand that you can trust then this is the choice for you.
Garmin's Striker 4 may only have a 3.5" display, but that doesn't mean that it lacks in its ability to help you find fish. This compact fish finder can reach up to depths of 1600 feet and freshwater at 750 feet in saltwater allowing you to clearly see exactly where the fish are below you. Like other Garmin products this fish finder projects a high-frequency sonar which gives you extremely detailed, near photographic imagery of fish, objects and structures beneath you. The screen may be smaller than others but that does not hinder you from altering the screen to show you exactly what you want. You can split the screen both horizontally and vertically to show you various features and settings within this fish finder. The Incorporated waypoint mapping system allows you to easily mark and navigate between locations making it perfect for navigating to those secret fishing holes, its one of the best cheap fish finders. One aspect of this fish finder that we're sure all anglers will appreciate is its built-in flasher. This allows you to view your sonar data in the classic flasher format making this perfect for jigging and ice fishing. If you're looking for a small, compact but robust fish finder than the Garmin Striker 4 is the perfect fish finder for you. We hope that these depth finders reviews have helped you to make the right decision and you no longer need to ask search for things like, "depth finder reviews", "sonar reviews" or"fish depth finder reviews" now that you've been giving this great information.

Welcome to my blog and I hope you enjoy the progression of this giant portrait of three extremely cute dogs. This is Cheetah, the Chihuahua/Yorkie cross, Minnie the Yorkie, and Nelly the KingCharles/Bichon cross. Wow that's a lot and these three are clearly the most lucky pampered pooches ever.
The finished portrait 24″x 17″ soft pastel.
I begin by drawing out the composition. All three dogs posed perfectly for their picture, so there is very little to do compositionally.
I also begin standing at this piece as the background is large and I want to be able to work it all at once. It makes sense to stand even though I'm filming and i end up in front of the camera sometimes!
One eye in and I love the expression on Cheetah's face.
Sitting by this point to get good balance for that small detail. I've also taken over an old tv screen in our apartment to work from. It's great while filming as I don't have to keep zooming in and out on the laptop.
Some of the lovely Unison colours that are going into this fur.
Onto cute Minnie in the middle. Starting with those tufts of hair at the top which overlap the first dog.
Adding some really vibrant colours throughout her coat.
Using the smallest shards for the smallest detail.
This area is tricky as the third dog has her leg underneath Minnie and the two seem to melt together in soft fur.
Onto dog number three. Little Nelly has had a tough start in life. Her first 10 weeks saw her physically and emotionally abused. But it really seems she has landed on all four paws. Her white fur added a lovely touch of brightness to the overall piece with all that green around them.
Working on her main features. Still a lot of tweaking to do on the fur.
Working on down the chest and using pure white where the light is hitting her directly.
Saving white for only those lit areas, I use many shades of blue violet and peaches throughout the coat.
So close to the end, just that front paw which will bring Nelly onto the chair.


Ottawa, ON – The Canadian Lung Association supports The Honourable Ginette Petitpas Taylor, Minister of Health's, announcement of regulatory measures that would further restrict vaping advertisements in order to help address the youth vaping crisis.
"The bottom line is that vaping is introducing nicotine products to youth. Sadly, these are often youth who would have otherwise never reached for a cigarette," Dean adds.

Q: How to improve query performance through denormalization of this schema or other techniques? My database attempts to describe some items, their sources and a variety of restrictions on who may use them as well as a number of intrinsic properties about the items.
It looks a little bit like:

There are 17 of these restriction tables and relationships.  I put them there as some or none of them may apply to a particular item, in an almost arbitrary fashion.
Some of the restriction tables might have as few as 3 different rows where others are around 20-30.  Not giants by any stretch.  Each restriction is completely independent of the others.
The problem I have is that when I establish a filter to say "show me all the items not affected by restriction 1, 3, and 7" I wind up with rather ridiculous amounts of joins which I know I should avoid.  What I think I'm doing is saying "gather all the items for which the restrictions provided by the user do not apply, gather all the items that should be included by checking each restriction relationship (left joins) and also gather all the possible items where no such restrictions exist at all (union)"
SELECT DISTINCT i.id, iwt.wlID, i.sdesc, iaft.affectID, iaft.amount, NULL AS affID FROM item i INNER JOIN itemRes1Table iwt ON i.id=iwt.itemID
LEFT JOIN itemRes2Table iaft ON i.id=iaft.itemID
LEFT JOIN itemRes3Table igt ON i.id = igt.itemID

... similar left joins for other restrictions ...

AND (igt.itemID IS NULL OR igt.gID = '.$_SESSION['gID']

... similar ands for other filters ...

UNION
SELECT DISTINCT i.id, iwt.wlID, i.sdesc, NULL AS affectID, NULL AS amount, iafbt.affID FROM item i INNER JOIN itemRes1Table iwt ON i.id=iwt.itemID

... repeated joins from above to get the items without the restriction ...

My limited research shows me that mySQL, which I'm working in, does not necessarily support automatically optimizing inefficient or unneeded joins, not that I'm certain it'd be helpful here anyway.
The list of available restrictions within a list very rarely update, but can be updated.  I had considered doing something like storing a bit flag value in an integer within the item to eliminate the tables altogether and programatically calculating which restrictions were applied .... moving the logic out of the database and into the controller, but then filtering must also fall to the controller unless I can dream up a way to query if a value is stored within a stored integer (for example 2 is clearly in 2048 but not in 1023, power of 2 factors are valid and use and to join them bitwise)
I considered converting many to enums, but I'm not sure how to then include the idea that some or none of the enum values may apply, this seems exactly the problem relationships are trying to address.
I'm getting long in the tooth.  I'm sure people have tackled this issue before, so even a point in the right direction on improving this monstrous looking schema would be appreciated.
Concrete Example
I may have removed too much detail to be clear so here is a concrete example.  Though this is for a video game it is a problem I've had in other designs.
Object 'a golden earring named Wind Whisperer'
It is a level 50 armor, weight 3.
Locations it can be worn:  ears
Special properties:  magic metal
Races allowed:  Human Elf Dwarf Halfling Gith Drow Sea-Elf Gnome
Genres allowed:  rogue aberrant
This armor has a gold value of 235233.
Armor class is 15 of 15.
Affects mana by 20.
Affects hp by 20.
Affects damage roll by 3.
Affects hit roll by 3.
Affects save vs breath by -1.
Affects cost of vindur gong by -5.
Affects intelligence by 1.

Working from memory on the sizes of choices here, but relatively close.
A character in the game has a race(1 of 19), class(1 of 13), gender(1 of 3) and alignment value (1 of 3).  Classes are categorized into genres, and it is possible that they could be arbitrarily reogranized (about 6 categories).  There are other restrictions but these would be the most common.
The typical use case is that a user is trying to select equipment for their character.  They choose see all available items for a particular wear location (some items may be worn in multiple locations from a choice of 20ish) either unfiltered or with some arbitrary combination of filters.
Items have properties such as where it is found (may be multiple sources), restrictions, affects (things that modify character statistics by a value) or are affected by properties (bestow the affect to the character in a yes/no sort of way).  The list of affects number around 40-50 and affected by properties is around 30 or so.  Both lists are relatively frequently updated.  This doesn't appear in my sample schema but the relationship of each of these is 1 to 0..*.

Charlotte has a Most Amazing Co-op Teacher. She loves her class, and talks about all they learn. It's impressive. The first week of co-op, Charlotte – and each of the K4 students – came home with a Painted Lady Caterpillar. While I thought, many times, we'd killed the poor thing, this morning's caterpillar check revealed one transformed caterpillar. We let it out and watched it fly away this morning before we headed out for church. So, so fun.
I'm rather glad to know I can manage to not kill a caterpillar. It felt like touch and go there for a while. My plans to move it out of the box were short lived when it made it's chrysalis on the underside of it's paper towel lining. I read of escaping caterpillars but this one apparently liked his home. There was more than one gap that made escape possible, but he stayed put and Charlotte has faith in our caterpillar raising capabilities still. Whew.
What a wonderful experience for Charlotte and the rest of siblings, and their mom, of course! Love Pierce's blue boots.
I am sure that was exciting for all of you. Charlotte took good care of it it seems.
