Russia and Turkey are taking steps to improve ties and work together in Syria after talks between the Russian and Turkish leaders.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan met with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Saint Petersburg on Tuesday.
Putin announced that Russia would begin easing sanctions designed to punish Turkey. The move would include restarting work on energy projects, such as work on Turkey's first nuclear power center and a pipeline from southern Russia to the Black Sea.
Russian officials said trade with Turkey could return to normal by the end of the year.
The Hurriyet Daily News reported that the two sides agreed to set up a direct telephone line between their militaries to prevent incidents in Syrian airspace.
Relations strained by downing of Russian bomber
In November, Turkey shot down a Russian jet bomber near its border with Syria. Turkish officials accused the airplane of violating Turkish airspace.
Russia denied the plane had been over Turkey and called the act a planned provocation by supporters of terrorism.
Russian officials answered the Turkish move by ordering economic and diplomatic sanctions on its neighbor. In June, the Turkish president apologized for the incident, and the two sides agreed to hold direct talks.
Russia supports the government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, while Turkey has supported groups trying to force him from power.
The two sides have been fighting in Syria for more than five years. The violence has caused more than 2.5 million refugees from Syria to enter Turkey.
Russia increased its involvement in the fighting last year by carrying out bombing raids on Syrian rebel targets.
Cooperation or compromise?
Some observers, however, are questioning how much Turkey and Russia can cooperate. They say the two sides have little common ground in Syria's civil war.
Military expert Alexander Golts says, "I think until now they have no clear decision because it's clear that their interests are colliding in Syria." Golts currently works as a visiting researcher at Uppsula University in Sweden.
However, the talks between the two presidents could be a sign that Recep Tayyip Erdogan wants compromise on the issue of Syria. The meeting also could show Western allies that the Turkish leader has several options available to him.
Ishat Saetov directs the Modern Turkey Studies Center in Moscow. He said Erdogan was surprised by the effect Russian economic actions had on Turkey. The "loss of more than 4 million tourists made quite a blow on the economy," he said.
The coup attempt partly changed relations
Although the two countries disagree about Syria, Russia supported Erdogan after members of Turkey's military attempted to overthrow his government.
The United States and European countries have criticized Turkey's reaction to the failed overthrow attempt. The Turkish government has arrested thousands of people, including many reporters.
Turkey accuses clergyman Fethullah Gulen of plotting the failed coup. Gulen lives in the American state of Pennsylvania. Turkish officials want him extradited to Turkey for trial. The U.S. government has refused to do this without evidence.
Turkey is also in disagreement with Europe over payments for accepting Syrian refugees and other migrants. The government wants the European Union to permit visa-free travel for Turkish citizens.
"Syria is one of the issues that Erdogan may trade upon," said Saetov. He said Erdogan may be willing to negotiate on the issue.
Yet Turkish officials say Assad must leave office eventually and that Russia will not take the place of its western allies.

A court has heard how chemical giant Monsanto would "bully scientists" into declaring that their weedkiller was safe to use and help cover-up the cancer risks, during a landmark lawsuit against the global corporation.
Monsanto is accused of suppressing the cancer risks associated with its popular Roundup weedkiller.
The agrochemical and agricultural biotechnology firm is being sued by DeWayne Johnson, a father of three who is dying from cancer after using Roundup.
Johnson, a former groundskeeper, has been given only months to live after cancer has now spread throughout his body.
He's using his final weeks to battle the multi-billion dollar corporation for justice by exposing the deadly side effects of their products.
"Monsanto has specifically gone out of its way to bully… and to fight independent researchers," said Johnson's attorney Brent Wisner.
The lawyer presented internal Monsanto emails that proved that the agrochemical company rejected critical research and expert warnings over the years while pursuing and helping to write favorable analyses of their products.
"They fought science," Wisner added.
Wisner, who spoke inside a crowded San Francisco courtroom, is representing DeWayne Johnson, known also as Lee, a California man whose cancer has spread through his body.
According to The Guardian, Johnson is the first person to take Monsanto to trial over allegations that the chemical sold under the Roundup brand is linked to cancer.
Thousands have made similar legal claims across the US.
The case is significant in part because the judge has allowed Johnson's lawyers to present scientific arguments.
The suit centers on glyphosate, the world's most widely used herbicide, which Monsanto began marketing as Roundup in 1974, presenting it as a technological breakthrough that could kill almost every weed without harming humans or the environment.
Roundup products are registered in 130 countries and approved for use on more than 100 crops, and glyphosate has been found in food, a variety of water sources, and the urine of agricultural workers and others.
A number of countries have policies banning or restricting the sale and use of glyphosate.
Johnson worked as a groundskeeper for the school district in Benicia, just north of San Francisco, and was responsible for applying Roundup.
Lawyers showed the jury photos of lesions and rashes on Johnson's skin after he was regularly exposed to the chemical and was eventually diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in 2014, at age 42.
"The simple fact is he's going to die. It's just a matter of time," Wisner said in court, as Johnson lowered his head and his wife cried in the seat next to him.
Wisner, who said the trial would include commentary from 10 current or former Monsanto employees, also read aloud internal corporate documents obtained during the case.
The Monsanto lawyer later said this comment had been taken out of context and presented in a misleading way.
Wisner further cited Monsanto emails from decades prior, in which the company was working with a genotoxicity expert who reviewed a series of 1990s studies.
He raised concerns about Roundup impacts on humans and suggested further areas of research.
After the expert's analyses, Monsanto representatives began considering finding a different expert and also started working on a press statement saying the product carried no risk, according to Johnson's lawyer.
Lombardi, the Monsanto lawyer, argued that Johnson's lawyers were "cherrypicking" studies that did not provide a "full picture," repeatedly pointed to Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) findings approving the use of glyphosate, and argued that the plaintiffs were overstating the significance of IARC's conclusions.
In addition to financial compensation, a verdict in Johnson's favor "would say that his life is worth something," Litzenburg added.

Knorr-Bremse in the Czech Republic
KB in Czech Republic
In June 2010 the inauguration of the new commercial vehicle systems plant was celebrated in Liberec.
The new plant follows a Knorr-Bremse Group tradition of commitment within the Czech Republic.
Following the 1992 commencement of a cooperation between the Knorr-Bremse plant in Aldersbach and the Czech company AUTOBRZDY a.s., the German-Czech joint venture Knorr-Autobrzdy s.r.o. was established in the commercial vehicles sector in 1993. The joint venture was partnered by Jablonec-based company Ateso, at the time the leading manufacturer of pneumatic brake systems in the former Czechoslovakia. Ateso had been producing pneumatic brake systems for commercial vehicles at its Hejnice plant since 1968 and, as a result of the joint venture (in which Knorr-Bremse held a 67% stake), the location was integrated in the Knorr-Bremse Group production network. In 1998, Knorr-Bremse assumed full ownership of Knorr-Autobrzdy s.r.o., incorporating it within its organisation under the name Knorr-Bremse Systémy pro užitková vozidla CR s.r.o.
We are looking forward to helping you.


Here's Anna enjoying her new life.
Anna Martinmadsen placed Second in our VT-9 Venus Transformation Contest.
My life with Venus factor is not too hard but definitely challenging sometimes. I started program on September 2nd and almost stick to it through all 12 weeks. My regular day with Venus starts in the morning, when I have my cup of water with lemon juice, and a bit later I have coffee with almond milk. After kids are sent to school, I go to do my work out.
I usually work out as hard as I can. I like to feel I really push myself and Venus workouts are not too easy. I usually would add 4 min. of Tabata on a bike to each Venus work out.
I have my first meal around 2 pm. and the last one at 8 pm. During last 12 weeks I had 2 weeks when I went for vacation with my family and I was not eating or drinking according to suggested calorie intake, but I tried to eat healthy food and I did all my exercises. Getting back to my routine after vacation was easy and pleasant and it felt really good.
Venus changed my life because it changed my habits. My everyday routine became my way of living. I feel very strong and healthy now and I have lots of energy.
My husband took after photos of me and I now can really see I lost 7kg and 3% body fat. According to Venus nutrition calculator I should loose another 4 kg and another 6 cm in my waist. I didn't reach suggested weight or measurements yet, but I am on my way. I know one day I will, and I know I will, because I enjoy Venus way of life.
Congratulations on your success Anna. We at the Venus Factor wish you all the best, we hope you are proud of your success, and we are very happy for you!

Unique Victor (by Griswold) Fully Marked No. 7 Skillet w Heat Ring, pn 721 B – with upside-down 7!
This is a gorgeous pan, in size 7, which is less common than the 8. The pan was manufactured by Griswold in around 1935.
It is marked on the underside with"VICTOR CAST IRON SKILLET THE GRISWOLD MFG. CO. 721 B 7 ERIE, PA., U. S. A.". This is known as a "fully marked" Victor skillet. The writing is crisp and clear.
A unique feature of this pan is the upside down "7" on the handle. I have seen plenty of No. 7 Victor pans with either no number on the handle, or with a "7" that is right side up when the handle is pointing towards you. I have only ever seen one other Victor pan with an upside down 7.
This is a unique piece, and somebody will be very lucky to have this in their collection!
This pan is 10-1/8″ across the pouring spouts, and 14-3/16″ long, including the handle. It sits flat!
The cooking surface is beautiful with a lovely glossy, black patina with very few signs of use. The original grinding marks are prominent on the interior walls!
I have taken lots of photos, so please click on the magnifying glass to see them in detail.
This pan has been thoroughly cleaned, and heat-seasoned with one coat of Crisco. It is ready for immediate use or display!

Going Viral in Seconds: I Saw It Through the Twitter Vine
By John Bonini
John Bonini also recommends this free course, Fundamentals of Social Media Marketing.
If Marvin Gaye were here today, Vine would certainly having him singing its praises through the majesty of one of his biggest hits.
Well...ever since this feature became available on January 24, marketers and business owners alike have been wrestling with how to go viral in six seconds. When done right
– and creatively – it's like a beautiful song.
However, when it's simply thrown together and trying to focus on too much, too quickly, well...you'd have Marvin Gaye singin' a different tune: "What's Goin' On?"
If you've dabbled with it a bit, then you've likely discovered just how hard it is to come up with something that's even remotely worthwhile in 6 seconds or less. But don't forget, not too long ago we were all thinking the same thing in regards to Twitter's 140 character limit. "How can we possibly get a message across so quickly?"
Well...I think we can all agree that we've figured it out.
However, don't simply jump on Vine for the sake of being up on the newest trends. This will surely breed some terrible, confusing Vine videos. Coming up with something with "share-ability" involves a great deal of creativity. Take your time...and use the following as a guideline for mastering the art of Vine.
How to Stand Out on the Twitter Vine
Don't Squish a Long Video Into 6 Seconds
Very rarely will it work to you advantage if you plan on smushing some lengthy clip into a 6 second video. That's what YouTube's for, and it's still perfectly fine for you to post a tiny URL link to your 30 second long video rather than use Vine.
DO Tell People What the Purpose Is
If you make your viewers try to guess what the point of your video is, then it's not going to help you out in any way. Before you even begin video production, make sure that you know exactly what the message is that you're trying to get across (and it should only be one message). Keep in mind what you want viewers to walk away with once the video is over. You can tell people what the purpose is through a number of different ways, like:
Tell people what it's about in the body of your tweet
Create a clip in the video blatantly stating what it is (i.e. Introducing: A new 6-in-1 tool for carpenters)
Make use of sound and actually tell viewers what the video is for
(For more tips on how to make a create Tweet that'll entice people to click on your Twitter Vine vid, take a second and download our free ebook "The Ultimate Cheat Sheet For Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn".)
Don't Use Vine to Provide a VIP Experience
A lot of businesses use videos to try and give private groups of individuals are more "special" or intimate experience with their business. Since Twitter Vine is public and open to everyone, it won't be the best way for you to go about doing this. Everyone can watch the video, which means everyone can also share the video. So really focus on using Vine to create share-worthy content that will help increase brand awareness.
DO Use It For Sneak Peeks
Releasing a new product? Introducing a new service? This is where Twitter Vine can quickly become your best friend. 6 seconds is just enough time to give your followers a bit of a teaser about an upcoming release of just about anything, like products, services, eBooks, or maybe even the introduction of a contest of a challenge of some sort.
The key here is to keep things incredibly simple. Don't overwhelm viewers with a ton of visuals in that short period of time. And if at all possible, try to create the video so that it creates an emotional response in the viewer. Making it sad, happy, or humorous are all good ways to make your little clip memorable.
Don't Do It "Just Because"
I'm going to get all 'parent of a teenager' on you right now: Just because everyone else is doing it doesn't mean that you should be too. Businesses often make the mistake of jumping in on the newest social media trend without properly planning how that trend can really benefit them.
Not sure if Twitter Vine is for you? Here are some things to consider:
Look at what other companies in similar industries or niches are doing. Do those videos work for them? Why or why not? Can you improve upon what they're doing?
Start experimenting with Vine. Create a goal, and shoot a quick clip that you think should help you reach that goal. Test it out a few times with different clips and different goals. That way you'll be able to see if Vine may be able to help you accomplish those goals.
Make sure that your videos jive with Vine "best practices" so you know that if the video isn't doing well, it's likely due to something other than the video itself.
If you get a good handle on how you can best use Twitter Vine, that's one more tool that could help you immensely, and we all know there are never enough ways to effectively get your message out. If you want to get your message out through the Twitter Vine, just make sure it's the right one and you'll probably find it as essential as Twitter is itself.

I encountered my fair share of difficulties nursing my first child. I will have to create a separate blog post just for that story because while I struggled so much, I also learned a TON and this helped me feel prepared for anything with my second.
Shea was super calm and mellow in the beginning. He seemed to nurse well and was gaining well. My supply seemed adequate but I drank mother's milk tea just in case since I struggled with an inadequate supply with my first. All was great until we hit the 6 week mark. Some fussiness is expected as babies become more and more aware of their environment, but it was as though he had become a colicky baby overnight. Also, there were some unusual signs that something was just not right.
His poop had been green and watery (sorry TMI!) and very frequent, going just about after every single feed. He had pretty terrible baby acne (something that Penny never had). He spit up often and there was a thicker, mucousy quality to his spit up that was strange. He seemed gassy and uncomfortable but would not pass gas and burps were really hard to get out. Nursing was suddenly different, with lots of unlatching and fussing after just a few minutes of drinking. Lastly, in the evening, when I tried to get him down for the night, he would just stare at me wide awake as I held him wrapped tight in my woven wrap, bouncing or rocking, white noise blaring in the background. This was usually my quick fire, fail proof trick! If I stopped, he'd start wailing. This seemed to go on for hours! My husband would take a shift so I could eat dinner and shower and then I'd be back at it until he finally passed out from exhaustion.
From my web searches I suspected that a forceful letdown was to blame. Indeed, the mother's milk tea that I had been drinking somewhat regularly was causing me to have oversupply so that was the first thing to go. Cutting that out did help with the forceful letdown issue and Shea started nursing a little better but the green watery poops continued and so did the fussiness.
How I would put Shea to sleep early on.
Then a friend suggested that I try cutting out dairy. To be fair, this was something that my mom had suggested too, even with my first, but I refused to listen. I was having a hard time believing that breast milk could change so much based on diet. Basically, I didn't know anything about breast milk…yet.
"Could it really be the dairy?" I thought.
I was desperate at this point and willing to try anything so I cut out cheese and milk for a day and immediately noticed some improvement.
Then one day for lunch I shared a giant bowl of steamed edamame with Penny for lunch and this time I not only got green frothy poop but there was blood too. That was enough to freak me out and with a little google searching, I quickly learned that a dairy allergy also usually encompasses soy.
After being vegetarian for over 15 years, I had consumed a very large amount of dairy and soy in my life. I always considered my diet to be a healthy one, of course not knowing any better. I often substituted tofu (soy) for meat in recipes and I had a weakness for soft cheese.
After the bloody poop scare though, I cut soy as well as dairy and I started noticing improvements in poop, fussiness, sleep, baby acne, and overall mood. It was like he was a different baby!
There were some days that felt like he had relapsed and I would begin to question whether it was really the dairy and soy. With more digging and trying to understand his allergy, I learned that there are many hidden sources of dairy and soy in our food. I basically had to cut out most processed foods and be careful with vegan dairy free products (because most are soy based). As a starving nursing mom, this was so hard!
Our pediatrician understood our troubles and was on board with avoiding dairy/soy, but he didn't seem to think that it was a serious issue. Sure, it was not a true allergy per se since exposure never caused him to have difficulty breathing or go into anaphylactic shock, but it was clear to me that it was making him miserable and he was a normal happy baby when I wasn't eating it.
As any scientist (and hungry cheese loving mama) would do, I challenged every few weeks and he always fell back into the same pattern— irritable, digestive issues, skin rashes, and sleeplessness. It became clear that not only did he have issues with dairy and soy, but he was really sensitive to it. Even a tiny bit of cheese or a little bit of soy sauce could send him into a downward spiral of sleepless nights and GI problems.
Our pediatrician mentioned that most children outgrow these sensitivities around 9 months of age. However, at his 9 month checkup he was not much better. We were then told that he would most likely be fine by 18 months of age but that did not happen either.
As Shea got older and more mobile, I noticed other disturbing effects of the dairy and soy. It seemed to make him more aggressive and hyperactive. For aggressiveness, he would often hit me when I had him wrapped on my front or randomly walk over and hit his sister. The hyperactivity came in the form of constant running. It was as though he would become unable to walk, just in a state of constant jogging at a minimum. People would tell me, "that's normal, he's just being a boy," but these behaviors would come on with dairy exposure like a light switch and as soon as it cleared his system, he'd be back to my sweet, calm boy. I had no idea that food allergies could also cause hyperactivity and effect other social behaviors but this is a common observation in kids with food sensitivities.
Another interesting discovery that I feel is worth mentioning is that despite having a severe dairy and soy intolerance from an early age, Shea tolerated a dairy based formula from Europe called Holle, just fine. My supply had dropped once I returned to work and I was feeling really stressed about being able to feed him since I knew that regular formula was not an option. The hypoallergenic formulas had an awful smell to them and my son would not take them easily. Then my boss suggested that I try Holle. I had no idea that it existed because it's not distributed in the US, but I found it on eBay. At first I was apprehensive about purchasing baby formula on eBay, but the retailers had lots of reviews and I was desperate for a formula that worked so I gave it a shot and he did great on it!
Holle formula was tolerated just fine.
The fact that he could have formula whose first ingredient was cow milk only further confused me at first. Did he really have a dairy intolerance or was it something else? It just didn't make sense that he was fine with 12 ounces of European dairy based formula, yet he'd get so ill from nursing after I had had a chinese food dinner or a bite of a quesadilla. I still don't have answers for why this was so, but I have some ideas, of course.
One of the main differences between Holle and Infamil or Similac is that it uses organic dairy that is Demeter certified. I had no idea what this meant but I had heard that European organic farming practices are much more stringent than in the US. With some self education, I learned that Demeter farming practices use environmentally and ecologically friendly methods to care for soil, plants and animals. This means no use of artificial or synthetic chemicals, fertilizers, genetically modified organisms or unnecessary additives. Additionally, Demeter cows are not de-horned like American dairy cows. So it appears that this way of cultivating dairy cows makes a much more digestible and tolerable milk!
We are now at 21 months of age. He is finally showing signs that his sensitivity is easing up. I say this with caution because we have been down this road many times. He'll seem ok with a little bit of dairy at first and then he reaches his threshold and he turns into a monster until we stop the dairy. But, it looks like this is the real deal this time. Shea has been having a little bit of cheese, or some yogurt, or some soy each day for a week now and so far he has not lost his tummy or his mind. He is still reacting to it, but it seems manageable, at least with this low level of exposure.
Interestingly, this improvement has happened to coincide with him starting a new and more potent probiotic. I started giving him a probiotic when he was a little over 1 year old but did not notice much improvement with it. The new probiotic has over 6x the amount of good bacteria in it and different strains too. It's hard to know for sure if the probiotic is what is making this dairy trial tolerable because he is also in the age range for outgrowing this type of allergy, but I think it is.
I know that there is still quite a bit of work to do in terms of promoting proper gut health and helping Shea outgrow this food sensitivity, but at least there is a light at the end of this 21 month long tunnel.
If you are also have a milk/soy protein intolerant baby make sure that you check this blog for lots of helpful info and cooking ideas!
Do you give your kids vitamins?
I can be a bit vitamin obsessed with my own health so as soon as my kids were old enough to start taking vitamins, I enthusiastically started supplementing. At first it was just vitamin drops that our pediatrician prescribed. Vitamins A, C, and D.
At my daughter's 12 month check-up they checked her hemoglobin levels and she was low. Following an excruciating blood draw (my first of many kid's blood draws to come), our doctor diagnosed her with iron-deficiency anemia and prescribed iron drops. Oh, and because our water does not contain fluoride, my daughter started fluoride drops as well. So just like that, I had an infant taking 3 different supplements, two of which had to be given at different times of the day because they interfere with absorption if taken together (fluoride and iron).
Taking vitamins became routine for us and Penny thrived on the iron drops. I noticed immediate changes in her mood, appetite and sleep. Without the iron drops, she would become a cranky melting-down child that refused to eat much and was obviously over-tired but could not ever sleep!
Well, iron worked really well for us but it did not come without side effects, namely constipation. Despite a diet rich in fruits and vegetables, I decided to try fiber gummies for kids once Penny was a toddler and could chew well. They worked well and helped keep her regular so fiber gummies joined the daily regimen.
When Penny was around 2 years of age, I realized that I had options with our multivitamin. I could give more than just the limited A, C, and D that the drops had to offer. I was excited to shop for the best kids vitamin out there and start my daughter on a more complete supplement, preferably all natural.
When I scoured the vitamin section of our health food store, I found that most of the formulations had little to no iron. With Penny's history of anemia, these were just not an option for us. Out of at least 10 different brands (yes, I sat in the isle and read every bottle) there was only one that had 50% of daily iron, which was way better than the usual 0-10%. So that was the one that I bought and we loved it at first (it's called Rainbow Light Kid's One, contains 5mg iron).
After being on iron drops for over a year at that point, I figured that I could safely take Penny off of them and give her the multivitamin containing half of her needed iron, with her diet making up for the other half. Well, I was wrong. Within 6 months of no iron drops, Penny's anemia came back. To this day it is a mystery as to why she is so susceptible to anemia!
Some background factors may be at play.
I was vegetarian through my pregnancy and anemia was detected in the third trimester, after which I started iron supplements. So she was probably born with low iron stores to begin with.
I was vegetarian through the first year of nursing Penny so my milk may have been lower in iron than meat eating breastfeeding moms.
Penny is a picky eater, especially when it comes to meat.
We live in an industrial neighborhood so environmental exposure to heavy metals that can interfere with iron storage and blood cell health may be at play.
We will probably never know the answer as to why, we just know that Penny is prone to anemia so a more complete multivitamin was in need in order to avoid the iron drops.
I finally just asked our pediatrician for a recommendation and he suggested Flintstone's Complete with Iron. There are several formulations of Flintstone's vitamins. The Complete with Iron formulation (it comes in a red box) has the highest iron content of any kids multivitamin that I've found to date (18 mg ~100% for a 4 year old). This is what I've been giving for the past couple of years despite my preference for all natural brands. We still reach times when iron drops are needed and I will give a small amount, usually about 25% of what was originally prescribed, just to quickly bump back up to normal.
You may be wondering how I know when iron is low… The truth is, I don't know most of the time. The only way to know for sure is to have blood drawn and a full panel run and that is hard on the child and not always fully covered by insurance. Signs that I look for in my child include irritability, trouble sleeping, pale skin, and the most obvious sign that our doctor mentioned to me was pale gums. They should be nice and pink! Keeping track of how much iron rich food my daughter is eating is also very helpful in predicting whether or not she needs additional iron.
Once little brother was born, we pretty much followed the same pattern of vitamins because he too was slightly anemic at 10 months of age! I had him checked early since I noticed behavioral signs and knew what to look for after dealing with it for so long with Penny. I was much more careful about iron during my pregnancy with him and accordingly, his anemia was not as severe. In fact, he quickly bounces back to normal by just giving his Flintstone on a regular basis. He loves to eat meat too, unlike his sister.
One new variable that my son introduced to our vitamin regimen was the fact that he is dairy and soy intolerant. This means that a major source of calcium is missing from his diet. He does still get calcium from breastfeeding. However, I have chosen to give a calcium supplement as well, just in case. Penny caught wind of his extra gummy and now she demands a calcium vitamin too, of course. With calcium, it can also interfere with iron absorption so I give it at a separate time from both iron and fluoride. This means that I often forget to give calcium and that's ok because my kids do eat other non-dairy forms of calcium, and too much calcium can throw off your calcium/magnesium balance.
A few other supplements that I feel are important are are Omega-3/DHA and probiotics, as well as Vitamin C, and Echinacea during cold season. I give Omega-3/DHA when our diet is lacking in the fish department and probiotics mostly to Shea to help him with intestinal health, especially after eating a bit of dairy or soy.
I realize that all of this may be unnecessary. Our diet is pretty well rounded and all of our nutritional needs should be covered. But, we are talking about kid's diets here and even though I serve them well balanced, healthful meals, they often pick and choose and don't get everything they need. So for now, I'll continue to be the crazy vitamin lady, potentially wasting my money. My kids see them as a special treat anyway.
Do you give your children any supplements? If so, which ones and why?
It is world breastfeeding week and I've been reflecting on what this really means to me for several days now.
Breastfeeding means giving up a part of your body to grow another person. It means losing a good portion of your day to just sitting (or laying) next to your child. Breastfeeding means that you must take care of your body and eat well because all of your nutrients are being passed on to your child. It means always being available to feed your baby or taking a cruel and unusual device with you to "pump" if you must be away. Breastfeeding means that you are constantly tired and always starving as your body works overtime to produce food for your baby.
For me, I was lucky because I had a choice to begin with. To breastfeed or not to breastfeed? And if so, for how long? Not everyone is fortunate enough to have that option.
Breastmilk is magical! While its composition is mostly known, scientists continue to find more than just vitamins, proteins, and fat in breastmilk. Aside from the constantly changing mixture of nutrients that reflect the mothers diet and environment, recent studies have found that breastmilk also contains antibodies (1), stem cells (2), and microRNAs (3).
Breastfeeding is ecofriendly and cost effective.
Breastfeeding is easily transportable! As long as you are near, baby will always have food. No need to worry about how many bottles to pack or whether milk will spoil. If you learn to nurse in a baby carrier (see reference 4 and more on this soon in my babywearing section) you don't even need a place to sit and nurse. You can literally do it on the go, anywhere you go with no planning or preparation involved.
It is good for both mama and baby's health. Studies have found increased IQs with longer durations of breastfeeding, improved mental and emotional development, as well as protection against ovarian and breast cancer for mom when nursing occurred for more than 18 months.
Toddlers can be picky eaters. Nursing as a compliment to solids provides more adequate nutrition. Plus there are probiotics in breastmilk and other gut healing properties. As toddlers eat more and more foods and grow their inner microbiome, breastfeeding can help promote early gut health which can have life long ramifications.
Again, it's natural! Other mammals nurse their young into the equivalent of early adolescence!
My baby boy and I breastfeeding at 19 months and counting. We'll try to get to 2 years of age and then take it from there. For us, this is what is best.

How did the Haabersti bridge become the Rocca al Mare overpass?
Words by Jonatan Karjus
Client Citycon
Nearly 40 pieces of free media coverage, over 700 name proposals, a 5% increase in visitor numbers, over 4,500 unique visitors on the landing page
Why are the visitor numbers of the shopping center decreasing? The study revealed that the reason was not just increased competition between shopping centers, but also included the fact that the long-lasting construction works of the new overpass were causing a lot of changes in nearby traffic, which have scared away customers arriving by car. We approached the problem from a completely unexpected angle – we began looking for a new name for one of the most important and newly built overpasses in the city.
to increase the number of visitors to Rocca al Mare Center;
to enhance the brand attractiveness of the Center through activities that contribute to society;
To develop links with the local community, businesses, and the district government.
In 2018–2019 the number of visitors to the Rocca al Mare Center was smaller than expected, so we went directly to the customers to find out why they are no longer coming to the Center. The increase in competition on the commercial market is a well-known reason. But the surprising fact was that, although road construction works in the immediate vicinity of the Center were completed, access to the Center was seen as more complicated than ever before, and the continuing road works in the area were creating additional problems.
We decided to approach the problem from an unexpected angle. In order to draw attention to the newly improved traffic system, we started looking for new names for the freshly built Haabersti overpass and pedestrian tunnels in cooperation with the municipal authorities and local companies.
Besides highlighting the completion of roadworks, the name competition was also a good way for the Center to develop community relations with the local residents, businesses and district government. It also opened the possibility to develop the brand awareness and appeal of the Rocca al Mare Center.
Strategically, the most important thing was to become a partner of the Haabersti District Government, which meant understanding their motivation, along with direct and transparent communication. Then we engaged the entertainment companies in the surrounding area – the Open Air Museum, and the Saku Suurhall.
The next step was designing the messages and organization of the name competition in cooperation with the partners. This meant creating the campaign's landing page, and putting together data sheets and plans for social media and PR. The significant role of PR was cooperation with the municipal media, which is often underestimated.
As a result of public voting, the Haabersti bridge was renamed the Rocca al Mare overpass and the pedestrian tunnels were renamed the Zoo tunnel and the Suurhall tunnel. It should be made clear that the organizers of the competition did not interfere in the results of the public voting.
Traditional media: press releases, articles and thematic proposals
Skilled use of the Center's own channels (social media, internal and external screens, and the landing page)
Direct mail to the residents of the district – this method proved very successful
Skilled use of the communication channels of the municipal media (social media, district's newspaper and website)
The PR budget was approximately 6,000 euros
pieces of media coverage, both in Estonian and Russian language media
name proposals for the competition (among which Rocca al Mare was the undisputed leader)
The number of visitors to the Rocca al Mare Center increased by 4-5% compared to the previous year (2018)
unique users visited the competition's website
Eesti Ekspressi
The editorial board of the weekly Eesti Ekspress also made its proposals for the name of the bridge.

McHugh chosen as new chairman of UConn trustees
Published 12:00 am EDT, Friday, July 17, 2009
Special to The Press
MIDDLETOWN -- Larry McHugh, president of the Middlesex Chamber of Commerce, has been selected as the new chairman of the University Of Connecticut Board Of Trustees, Gov. M. Jodi Rell announced Thursday.
"Larry McHugh has been a legendary ... educator, business leader and community leader in our state for decades," Rell said. "I am thrilled that he is willing to take on this new challenge."
McHugh, 69, has been president of the Middlesex Chamber of Commerce since 1983. A 1962 graduate of Southern Connecticut State University, McHugh was a high school teacher and track and football coach for more than two decades, most of them at Xavier High School in Middletown. From 1975 to 1983 he served as executive director of M-X Development Corp., the fundraising office for Mercy and Xavier high schools.
McHugh had been serving as the chairman of the CSU Board of Trustees.


The aniseedy flavour of the fennel is unusual in a soup; be sure to cook its fibrous flesh thoroughly before attempting to puree.
Saute the onion in the oil until transparent.
Add the potatoes and fennel and cook with the lid on for 5 minutes.
Add the hot vegetable stock and simmer until the vegetables are soft.
Puree in batches, return to the pan and add the milk.
Heat through, season with salt, pepper and nutmeg.
Serve with a dash of cream and a sprinkling of parsley.

Andrew A. July 17, 2019 June 25, 2022 2 Comments on Final Fantasy VII Remake – Return to Midgar
It is hard to believe that Final Fantasy VII came out all the way back in 1997.
Why you might wonder? Well, as many of you who have followed me might know, Final Fantasy VII is not only one of my favorite games but it is also considered a timeless masterpiece by many gamers.
That is why it is up on the block and slated for a remake: It is that amazing and good. But what makes it that way?
I can only speak for myself, but it is the almost perfect balance of lore, characters, and gameplay mechanics.
As a huge fan of the series in general, it is easy for me to place FFVII among my favorite FF games and, again no mystery to my longtime fans, Aerith is easily my favorite female character from the series as well as video games in general. So, as you might imagine, the remake of Final Fantasy VII is kind of a big deal to me, just like it is for millions of other fans out there.
The biggest question for longtime fans is what exactly will be new and different in the remade FFVII game. Again, the answer is both more complex and simpler than you might imagine.
Some ambitious plans – and a few details are still unknown
E3 2019 was held last month in Los Angeles
In short, Square is planning on no less than a total overhaul when it comes to how the story is presented as well as the gameplay mechanics.
Because of the depth of content on offer, there will be new story lines, music, areas of Midgar, you name it.
Cast as an expanded, director's cut of the original edition, the remade Final Fantasy VII is promising more of everything and that means adding a lot of stuff that was not around the first time.
Delving into what is new about the game also highlights what is markedly different. While it is still unknown whether or not Final Fantasy VII's remade story will be the same as the original but the expanded lore does point in that direction.
The major concern for many fans in this regard is the planned episodic format.
As detailed in the Square Enix press conference about the game at E3 2019, the first episode comes out in March 2020 and deals with the initial Midgar section of the game.
This will be the entirety of the first episode while this segment in the original game comprised some 5% or so of the overall story. To expand what was formerly 5% of the game into an entire 50-60 hour episode means that the remake of Final Fantasy VII will contain so much new stuff it is hard to list it all here.
One thing we do know for sure is that the characters and their personalities will be given a lot more attention in this game, than ever before.
A renewed combat system – expectations are high
Cloud faces his first battle ever…22 years ago!
Naturally, since the remake is using a more powerful system and is more aligned with modern FF combat mechanics than the system used in the previous game, the remake will feature markedly different combat mechanics.
Square has shown off what looks like a hybrid between the system used in Final Fantasy XV and the active-time battle system of the past games.
You can command more than one character and the battles are both a pageant of coordination and flare. Some gamers might be reminded of the Kingdom Hearts series and Square seems to be aware of that,but overall though the company is promising something very, very different with the remade Final Fantasy VII title.
What this remake gives the developers the opportunity to do – from the standpoint of many older fans – is to correct some of the problems the first time around.
At the end of the day, it could be a win-win situation, both for Square and the above fans.
Time to right some wrongs – I am coming for you Sephiroth!
Sephiroth is by far the most hated video game villain ever.
Actually, the above mentioned "problems" extend beyond just gameplay quirks and mechanics and even into the realm of the story itself. I do not know about you, but I spent hours and exhausted every source available to find a way to attempt and resurrect Aerith in the game.
Eliminated in a surprise, almost out-of-nowhere scene, Aerith's death was one of the most shocking developments in a JRPG ever. It still ranks highly on most top 10 lists and, ultimately, still makes a lot of fans mad. Sure, it kind of makes sense in the scheme of the total plot Final Fantasy VII presents, but the game would also work without her dying.
Even if Square decides not to change the story much at all where the major points are concerned, putting a way in the game to resurrect Aerith would be a cool nod to those of us that attempted to do the impossible so long ago. Again, the main thing is that Square keeps the feeling that the original invoked. We all can allow for some changes here and there.
We can even make way for some major changes as long as they make sense in the scope of the gameplay. It is a modern game and we are aware of that. Further, Square should make some effort to accommodate fan needs but it should not change everything based on that.
If Aerith has to die, as much as that would stink, then that is the way it has to be. But given the amount of time, lore, and new game space being introduced with the episodic games, it only makes sense to include an Easter egg here and there. After all, secrets and hidden content were such a huge part of the first version of the game, that they should definitely make as much of an appearance in the remake.
Final thoughts – Counting down the days
Looks like the whole world is now calling you Aerith as opposed to Aeris. I Need to get adjusted to it…
Even with all of this heady news, some pessimists on the Internet are worried about the scope of the remake.
It does sound massive and it does raise questions about Square possibly biting off more than they can chew. But, as things stand right now, Final Fantasy VII Remake is undoubtedly going to be one of the biggest titles of 2020 and will probably sell like absolutely gang busters.
Since money is what greases the wheels of development at most video game publishers, there is little reason to think that FF7 Remake will not see out its ambitious plans and produce one of the most epic, comprehensive video game experiences ever.
What about you retro folks? Are you eager for the upcoming remake of FFVII? I cannot wait to hear your opinions!

I think most remakes can be great, as long as they fix the issues seen in previous editions. For me, it's all about keeping the same storyline, but just giving some updates to fit the modern age. It can be likened to a movie remake or even a new edition of the same book; updating where it needs to be upated, but keeping drastic changes to a minimum. If they can do that, Final Fantasy VII won't just pertain to old fans, but might just gain some new ones along the way.
Hello Todd, thanks for taking time to leave a comment. 🙂
I could agree with you, although – as sincere as I can be – I really want to prevent Aerith from being killed.
"Gamingly" speaking, I have never got over that.
I am not sure if "issue" is the right word for that, but definitely it is something that I would like to change.
Anyway, it looks like the remake will consist of several episodes, so I doubt they will be able to keep the same storyline. Maybe they could keep the main one and develop some of the original game side-quests, but it is mere speculation. Only the developers know what they are cooking.
I do not know what to expect, but again I cannot wait for it!
Thanks again for dropping by, till next article!


The Manuscripts Division has one of the largest collections of Ethiopic manuscripts outside Ethiopia, including nearly 180 codices (bound manuscripts) and more than 500 magic scrolls (amulets), dating from the 17th to 20th centuries, chiefly written in Ge'ez, the sacred language of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church, with small amounts of text in Amharic. Text manuscripts include Gospel Books, Psalters, the Book of Enoch, homilies, liturgy, chant, saints' lives and miracles, theology, law, and compilations of texts related to divination and popular magic. There are also several manuscripts illuminated in the Second (or late) Gondar style, which emerged in the old imperial capital of Gondar in northern Ethiopia from the 1720s and 1730s. Princeton's best Ethiopic manuscripts were collected by Robert Garrett, Class of 1897, and donated to Princeton in 1942. Garrett acquired the bulk of his Ethiopic manuscripts from the eminent German philologist Enno Littmann, who led a Princeton expedition to Tigray in 1905. The following year, Littmann led a German expedition to Aksum. In the years since the Garrett donation, Ethiopic manuscript holdings have continued to grow by gift and purchase. In recent years, Bruce C. Willsie, Class of 1986, has been the principal donor of Ethiopic manuscripts, especially magic scrolls. For more information, consult the 450-page online catalog Ethiopic Manuscripts in the Princeton University Library. In addition to the Manuscripts Division, there is one Ethiopic manuscript each in the Scheide Library and Cotsen Library, and an additional one in the Princeton University Art Museum.

Q: How to escape to latex within minted comments? I am using the minted package for typesetting matlab source code.
There is an escapeinside option for the listing environment provided by minted to escape to regular TeX commands.
However, this does not work on comment lines.  Here is a MWE illustrating the problem.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{minted}
\usepackage{amsmath}

\begin{document}

The code for computing mass-energy relationship is given in listing~\ref{listing:massenergy}.

\begin{equation}\label{eq:massenergy}
    e = mc^2
\end{equation}
\begin{listing}
    \begin{minted}[mathescape,autogobble,escapeinside=||,frame=single]{matlab}
    e = m*c^2; % |see equation~\eqref{eq:massenergy}| does not work!
    |see equation~\eqref{eq:massenergy}| works
    \end{minted}
    \caption{Mass-Energy source code listing}
    \label{listing:massenergy}
\end{listing}

\end{document}

Here is the output produced

How can one escape to TeX/LaTeX inside minted comment lines?

Mosman residents spend their time creating art under the guidance of Polina.
The healing power of art is real for those living with dementia at Bupa's Aged Care home in Mosman after art-based cognitive therapist, Polina Gavria discovered its ability to stimulate the mind.
While the evidence within the home has been anecdotal, Polina Gavria said the art-based cognitive therapy sessions have helped residents to brush up on their creative and communication skills.
"Dementia creates challenges for how people understand what is being said to them, along with being able to express themselves to others," Ms Gavria said.
Aphasia is a type of language deterioration that is common for those living with dementia, but you give the residents a brush and their artwork becomes a nonverbal form of expression.
The art therapy classes being run throughout and beyond Dementia Awareness Month are designed to nourish minds and bodies while also equipping Bupa Mosman residents with techniques to help them cope better in their everyday lives.
"Sensory stimulation is big part of these sessions as we paint on a variety of mediums including paints, clay, paper and other objects from nature. As part of the art sessions, we also deliver short and succinct historical facts about the subjects while playing music from their youth in a bid to trigger positive memories," she said.
Bupa's Head of Dementia Services, Margaret Ryan said difficulties that arise from not being able to communicate properly can lead to depression and anxiety which is why art-based cognitive therapy is so important for those living with a cognitive impairment.
"There was a study published in the Journal of Alzheimer's disease that showed art therapy as being beneficial for those living with dementia as it engages attention, provides pleasure, and improves neuropsychiatric symptoms, social behaviour and self-esteem," Ms Ryan said.
"Social isolation accelerates cognitive decline in ageing people. The art-based cognitive therapy sessions at Mosman provide a positive space where residents living with dementia can laugh, be social and creatively bounce off each other," she said.
Laughter echoed throughout the Bupa Bankstown aged care home as Western Sydney Wanderers players Josh Risdon, Marc Tokich, Jaushua Sotiro and Daniel Nijic lifted the spirits of residents.

Healing Through Gratitude
Writing and performing with The Medea Project: Theater for Incarcerated Women/HIV Circle, Lisa Frias utilizes the medium of Dance and Theatre to teach the healing power of gratitude.
Lisa is the director of the Dance Department at Thomas R. Pollicita Middle School in Daly City, California. For more than 20 years, she has performed as a core member of The Medea Project: Theater for Incarcerated Women/HIV Circle. In 2019, she graduated from California Institute of Integral Studies, receiving her Master's of Fine Arts. Her stage production, Gratitude, will run at Stagewerx in San Francisco from January 28 to 31, 2021.
At some point, it becomes impossible to separate life themes from art, which, of course, with all that is happening in the world, makes perfect sense. As the Black Lives Matter movement courageously changes history, the clarion call to pay attention, unpack privilege and allyship and walk the walk of anti-racist work blasts with deafening clarity. And in the throes of COVID, we are challenged to investigate the very core of our personal narratives. As we attempt to adjust to an ever-changing pandemic reality, it is impossible to reflect on or conceive of art-making without recognizing these profound contexts.
Since earning my MFA, my work includes revising my one-woman show, Gratitude, performing as a core member of The Medea Project: Theater for Incarcerated Women/HIV Circle, and teaching Middle School Dance full time.
Gratitude, in its first incarnation, constituted my MFA Thesis. A few months before that first performance, my dad died, and since then my mom has died too. So now I approach the work with the strange and rudderless sense of being parentless — mindful, of course, that mourning parents who live into old age are a blessing that many are not afforded.
During my show, one of the characters says, "Gratitude is the antidote to all of life's poisons," and I wonder — is it? Gratitude certainly doesn't nullify or rectify inequity and abuse. Still, I am certain that gratitude is a grounding force, one that makes me more capable of moving correctly through the world with justice and love. That same character later says, "All the revolutionary people in history, they had equal parts rage and gratitude."
If you're not rageful, you're not paying attention; if you're not grateful, you're not paying it forward. So, as I rework this piece, I find I am looking at the concept of gratitude from both familiar and new angles. If others are denied things that I get to be grateful for, what is incumbent upon me to do? What is the role of trauma and loss in shaping my own gratitude? Where do gratitude and healing dance?
Gratitude will go up at Stagewerx in San Francisco on January 28, 30, 31, 2021, directed by the legendary Rhodessa Jones. I met Rhodessa Jones, the director of The Medea Project: Theater for Incarcerated Women /HIV Circle when I started performing with the company in 1995. Through the years, the company's work has always centered its stories on women as radical life-saving vehicles to both personal healing and social justice.
During my last semester at California Institute for Integral Studies, I performed in a Medea Project collaboration with Planned Parenthood called Birthright. Since then we have done numerous other performances and gone on tour. When Did Your Hands Become A Weapon was staged at Brava Theater and explored the many manifestations of violence against women.
The methodology of Rhodessa Jones and The Medea Project is more compelling than ever. She has always said, "You don't get people to tell their stories; you tell your own." The visceral sharing that is the cornerstone of Medea opens doors to all kinds of healing and revolution. Twenty-five years later, we are still sitting in a circle, nodding our heads, speaking, crying, laughing, and listening.
Since graduating, I have continued to direct the Thomas R. Pollicita Middle School Dance Department in Daly City. At-Home Learning during COVID has presented numerous challenges and demanded a lot of sharp learning curves with ZOOM and other technologies. What's salient for me, though, is an even deeper appreciation of what I don't know — specifically the unique challenges that my students have to face. A recurring theme during my time at CIIS was the importance of inquiry. Since graduating, I developed a Mindfulness program as part of my Dance curriculum at my school. I was unsure if it would fly, but the students let me know that not only was it helpful, but they wanted more of it, and they wanted it regularly. The profound resilience of youth, coupled with educators' blind spots and systemic obstacles, sometimes means, as teachers, we don't see the weight of the stressors they're carrying. Often approaches to address students' needs and trauma are very high stakes; mindfulness (and Dance) are resources for inquiry that don't center the students as academic failures or victims but rather give them safe space to rest and engage. The ongoing inquiry into how I show up (for myself and them) feels essential.
