Colorado and the storm of urban fires in the middle of winter
Francisco Martin Leon 7 hours ago 6 min
Natural color image of the December 30 fire by MODIS on NASA's Aqua satellite
Northwest of Denver peak gusts reached 185 kilometers per hour, the equivalent of a Category 3 hurricane. Those winds generated intense fires of grass and bushes in south of Boulder and brought them east to the cities of Superior and Louisville, developing a firestorm. By the time it was over, nearly 1,100 houses had been destroyed or damaged, two people were reported missing and thousands were displaced.
The Marshall fire is now the most destructive in state history. Four of the five largest wildfires on record in Colorado occurred between 2018 and 2021.
Unlike many of the megafires in the western United States in recent years, which generally occur in forests and wilderness, the Marshall fire traveled rapidly to densely populated neighborhoods and went from a wildfire to an urban conflagration.
Tens of thousands of residents were evacuated As flames flew through the streets and dead ends.
Ember Storm
The fire was led by what climate scientist and Boulder resident Daniel Swain called "a storm of embers". Powered by hurricane force winds, embers leapt from house to house, burning many from the inside out, while burning trees, lighting commercial buildings and blowing up a highway.
The natural color image above was acquired just hours after the fire started on December 30 by MODIS on NASA's Aqua satellite. At the time, the plume of smoke, which was also visible on radar, stretched about 100 kilometers over the eastern plains of Colorado. The fire also generated its own time: the increase in heat created an area of low pressure that drew surface winds into the fire from all directions.

The next day brought in much needed moisture as a cold front moved in and left falling more than 10 inches of snow, which dampened the fire but also complicated the response. As of January 3, 2022, the 6,200-acre fire perimeter was fully contained.
High winds and wildfires are not uncommon in the Front Range, but a forest fire in December is; the normal fire season lasts from May to September. A recent study found that increases in extreme fire weather are being driven by decreasing atmospheric humidity and rising temperatures.

In 2021, Colorado experienced an unusually warm summer and fall, along with record dryness. The hot, dry period followed an unusually wet spring, which reduced wildfires during the summer and stimulated vegetation growth, which then dried up and provided abundant tinder for the December fire.
Map of the Standardized Precipitation-Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI) for Colorado for the month of December 2021
At the time of the fire, eastern Boulder County was classified as extreme drought., according to the US Drought Monitor The map above shows the Standardized Precipitation-Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI) for Colorado for the month of December 2021. It represents both precipitation and temperature. (Does not include the New Years snowfall that helped put out the fire.) According to the Colorado Climate Center, SPEI values greater than minus 2 are very rare and are indicative of extreme hot and dry conditions in eastern Colorado.
The map also shows the contrast between the extreme drought in the eastern part of the state, where the fire occurred, and snowpack in the western part of the state, where heavy snowfall in December brought snowpack near or above average. Denver, which normally has 30 inches of snow at the end of December, did not record its first winter snowfall until December 10, its last.

The Variable Average Speeds necessitates teams to be at a specified location at a particular point of time. Any delay or early arrival at a particular point along the specified route will attract penalty points and as such the team with the minimum penalty points becomes the winner. This will be monitored by Marshals, posted at secret locations who will record the timings maintained by the teams. Such Variable Average Speeds will not exceed 45 KMPH in non-Highway stretches. All this requires the teams to concentrate on identifying the route, check the route markings with the physical layout and do complicated mathematical calculations for ascertaining the correct timings. This event will provide a lot of challenge to the participants to cover long distances on different road surfaces as well changed traffic profile available in Bhubaneswar and adjacent areas in this 200-300 kms (approx..) event.

Q: What javascript MATH.PI MATH.SQRT really does? var a=Math.sqrt(0);
var b=Math.sqrt(1);
var c=Math.sqrt(9);
var d=Math.sqrt(64);
var e=Math.sqrt(-9);

I do not quite understand what does Math.PI and Math.sqrt exactly?

A: Math.PI accesses a variable which represents the value 3.141...
Math.sqrt(x) finds the square root of x

A: The names are somewhat self explanatory. Math.PI is a constant which holds the value of pi (i.e. 3.14...). Math.sqrt determines the square root of its argument.
Taking the square root of a negative value (-9, for instance) will result in NaN because, in reality, you cannot express the square roots of negative numbers in terms of real numbers.

At the end of our lives we are remembered for our acts, the lives we touch, and the causes we advance. With this in mind, we invite you to consider commemorating the memory of an exceptional educator and American citizen by contributing to the Dr. Richard Gruetzemacher Constitution Day Lecture Fund.
In 2004, the U.S. Congress passed bipartisan legislation authorizing September 17th, the day in 1787 that delegates to the Constitutional Convention signed the document in Philadelphia, as Constitution Day. In 2005, the U.S. Department of Education authorized public educational institutions and government offices to provide educational programs to promote a better understanding of the Constitution.
Founded in 2011, The Center for Reflective Citizenship's (CRC) objective is the promotion of education about the principles of a free society through the provision of civic and history institutes and programs to prepare a new generation of thoughtful citizens for the practice of democracy. The CRC is part of UTC's College of Health, Education, and Professional Studies.
Since its founding, CRC annual Constitution Day lectures, featuring nationally and internationally known scholars and teachers, have become one of the most popular campus outreach initiatives; each year, 200-300 community members, students, and educators attend this event.
Dr. Richard Gruetzemacher was a beloved member of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga community for 26 years. He served as Director of Planning, Evaluation, and Institutional Research from 1988-2014. Dr. Gruetzemacher had a particular passion for U.S. civic and history education in general and for effective history and civics instruction in the schools. In 1967, he began his career by teaching American History at Fernwood Junior High School in Biloxi, Mississippi. Dr. Gruetzemacher modeled through his faith in God, his character, his devotion to young people, and his interest in history and public affairs, what it means to be a good American citizen.
Our objective is to make the Dr. Richard Gruetzemacher Constitution Day Lecture Fund a lasting tribute to Dr. Gruetzemacher's memory by funding an endowment that will fund the annual Constitution Day lecture that will be renamed in his honor. To date, we have secured $13,000 in donations towards our goal of $25,000. We urge you to think seriously about making a tax deductible contribution in support of the Dr. Richard Gruetzemacher Constitution Day Lecture Fund. Gifts can be made either by mail or online at http://give.utc.edu/gruetzemacher. We thank you in advance for your generous support.

Greece passes austerity budget, awaits debt inspectors' report
BY AP13 Nov 2012 12:11 AM GMT
AP13 Nov 2012 12:11 AM GMT
Greek lawmakers approved the country's 2013 austerity budget early on Monday, an essential step in Greece's efforts to persuade its international creditors to unblock a vital rescue loan installment without which the country will go bankrupt.
The budget was passed by a 167-128 vote in the 300-member Parliament. It came a days after a separate bill of deep spending cuts and tax hikes for the next two years squeaked through with a narrow majority following severe disagreements among the three parties in the governing coalition.
Prime Minister Antonis Samaras pledged that the spending cuts will be the last Greeks have to endure. 'Just four days ago, we voted the most sweeping reforms ever in Greece,' he said.
'The sacrifices (in the earlier bill and the budget) will be the last. Provided, of course, we implement all we have legislated.'
'Greece has done what it was asked to do and now is the time for the creditors to make good on their commitments,' he stressed.
Athens says that with the passage of the two bills, the next loan installment, worth about $40 billion, should be disbursed.
Without it, the government has said it will run out of cash on Friday, when $6.35 billion worth of treasury bills mature.
Finance ministers from the 17-nation Euro-zone would be meeting in Brussels later in the day, with Greece high on the agenda.
However, German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble has indicated it is unlikely that the ministers would decide on the disbursement at that meeting.
'We all ... want to help Greece but we won't be put under pressure,' Schaeuble told the weekly newspaper Welt am Sonntag.
Schaeuble said that the so-called troika of debt inspectors are unlikely to deliver their report on Greece's reform programme by Monday.
The creditors also want to see what the debt inspectors have to say about Greece's debt sustainability.
But speaking minutes before the vote, Samaras pledged that the bailout funds would be disbursed 'on time'. Finance Minister Yannis Stournaras also stressed the precariousness of Greece's cash reserves, with the treasury bills due on Friday.
'Without the help of the European Central Bank (ECB), the refunding of these treasury bills from the banking system will lead the private sector to complete suffocation,' pointed out Stournaras.


On the occasion of the World Environment Day 2017, MIO-ECSDE and MEdIES, in collaboration with the UNESCO Chair and Network on Sustainable Development Management and Education in the Mediterranean of the University of Athens, the Social Cooperative Enterprise EKFRASI, and with the support of UNESCO's Man and the Biosphere Programme, invites you to the screening of the recently awarded movie "Days of the Lake" (by Pandora Mouriki and Hara Fragkou, Greece 2017, 50 min, original version with English subtitles) followed by a discussion session with invited guests.

Recent studies reveal disparities in neighborhood access to food and fitness facilities, particularly in US cities; but few studies assess the effects of multiple neighborhood factors on obesity. This study measured the multilevel relations between neighborhood food availability, opportunities and barriers for physical activity, income and racial composition with obesity (BMI≥30 kg/m2) in New York City, controlling for individual-level factors. Obesity rates varied widely between neighborhoods, ranging from 6.8% to 31.7%. Obesity was significantly (p<0.01) associated with neighborhood-level factors, particularly the availability of supermarkets and food stores, fitness facilities, percent of commercial land use and area income. These findings are consistent with the growing literature showing that area income and availability of food and physical activity resources are related to obesity.

North Carolina court strikes down voter ID law as unconstitutional
By Jerrick Adams
On Sept.17, 2021, a three-judge panel of the Wake County Superior Court ruled 2-1 that North Carolina's voter ID law violates the state constitution. As a result, the court blocked enforcement of the law.
The court found that "the evidence at trial [is] sufficient to show that the enactment of [the voter ID law] was motivated at least in part by an unconstitutional intent to target African American voters." The court also ruled that "[o]ther, less restrictive voter ID laws would have sufficed to achieve the legitimate nonracial purposes of implementing the constitutional amendment requiring voter ID, deterring fraud, or enhancing voter confident." Judges Michael O'Foghludha and Vince M. Rozier Jr. formed the majority. Judge Nathaniel J. Poovey dissented. Sam Hayes, general counsel for House Speaker Tim Moore (R), said Moore would appeal the ruling.
The court's order represents its final judgment on the matter. The court had previously issued a preliminary injunction barring enforcement of the law on a temporary basis, pending resolution on the merits.
This ruling is the most recent in a series of legal developments involving North Carolina's voter ID law. On Nov. 6, 2018, North Carolina voters approved a state constitutional amendment establishing a photo identification requirement for voters. The state legislature, with Republican majorities in both chambers, approved implementing legislation (SB 824) in December of that year, overriding Democratic Governor Roy Cooper's veto. Lawsuits immediately followed, both in federal and state-level courts. In December 2019, a federal district court temporarily enjoined SB 824, but this ruling was subsequently overturned by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. The state lawsuit giving rise to the Sept. 17 order has been ongoing since 2019.

Reuters: VC Investment in Canada at 14-year high
In the Thomson Reuters Canadian Venture Capital Review for the first three quarters of 2015, Canadian companies collectively raised a 14-year high of $1.95 billion in venture capital. According to the Reuters report, this amount already exceeds the full VC total for six of the past seven years, and is on pace to hit $2.4 billion by the end of the year.
Ontario led deal-making activity in the first nine months, with $1.1 billion going to Ontario-based companies.
Ontario led deal-making activity in the first nine months, with $1.1 billion going to Ontario-based companies from January to September. Quebec-based companies came second with $491 million raised, while British Columbia took the next largest share with $223 million invested in the first three quarters. Real Ventures took the top spot as the most active VC firm.
In other record breaking news, the number of deals for the first three quarters of 2015 was up 4% comparatively to last year at 406, the most since 2005.
Venture capital fundraising by Canadian funds reached $1.1 billion in the first nine months of the year, a 20% increase over 2014. Meanwhile, overseas investment also accounted for 13% of total investment for the year, an all-time high for Canada.

The top Canadian venture deals included Montreal-based Lightspeed Retail with an $80 million deal value, Waterloo-based Kik Interactive raised $65.3 million and Markham-based Real Matters raised $60 million. Information technology took 61 percent of VC dollars, the highest amount, and traditional investment industries like manufacturing were actually down from the previous year.
At the same time, Reuters released its report on private equity (PE) buyout market activity in the first three quarters of 2015, and found that there was $129.6 billion in deals from Canadian firms targeting non-Canadian companies. This amount is already double the combined totals of the last four years.
"Canadian manufacturing companies accounted for the largest share of buyout-PE deal-making in the first three quarters with 54 transactions," said the report on which industries were seeing the most deals. "Software and mining companies followed second and third."
Though the number of deals done in Alberta declined in the first nine months, the province attracted the half of the top eight deals for the first nine months, securing $7.5 billion. Ontario-based companies attracted the second largest share, with $5.5 billion, followed by Quebec companies with $2.7 billion.

HP to support Mandrake Linux on the desktop
Hewlett-Packard and Mandrake will launch the latest attempt to interest businesses in Linux on desktop PCs, with the emphasis on tech support
By Matthew Broersma | January 30, 2002 -- 18:04 GMT (10:04 PST) | Topic: Tech Industry
France's MandrakeSoft has teamed up with Hewlett-Packard in the open source camp's latest foray into the desktop PC market. The agreement, announced on Tuesday ahead of the LinuxWorld Expo, will see HP build and promote Mandrake Linux-based desktop PCs for European and North American businesses.
Linux is based on an open source licence that prevents any one company from owning the software, and competes against Microsoft's dominant Windows operating system, which is kept under tight proprietary control. So far, however, Linux has mainly succeeded in the server market, where ease-of-use is less important than reliability and performance.
The HP deal aims to address some of the problems that have prevented desktop users from adopting Linux, such as the lack of technical support.
Mandrake Linux will be certified on all of HP's business PCs, and will be offered in a premium package that includes telephone, on-site and remote support. MandrakeSoft is to provide technical support for HP's teams, according to the companies. The PCs will also be available without support.
"This alliance is a testament to HP's strong commitment in Linux market," said Eric Rueda, software marketing manager of HP Business Desktops division, in a statement.
Other companies have tried selling Linux on desktops in the past. Dell stopped offering Red Hat Linux on its desktop and notebook PCs last autumn, citing lack of demand, but says there is more potential for the software on servers and workstations.

Students of Cupertino High School returned to class Wednesday after a "threatening robo call" prompted an emergency evacuation Tuesday afternoon.
The campus increased security presence and offered counseling to students following the threat.
The Santa Clara County Sheriff said that a "robotic call was received by the school threatening harm around 1 p.m. After further investigation, the Sheriff's office said the phone number linked to the robo call traced back to similar incidents reported nationwide.
A 'threatening robo call' prompted an emergency evacuation at Cupertino High School on Tuesday. The campus was immediately cleared and all courses and activities canceled for the remainder of the day.
Assistant Superintendent, Tom Avvakumovits, said the threat was made while students were at lunch prompting the decision to quickly evacuate the school to "prioritize student safety."
Cupertino High School Senior, Kayshav Prakash, was waiting with a friend in his car for the next period to start when he saw floods of students running out of the campus.
"We just got out and ran with a whole pack of people running and went to a house across the street from the school,' said Prakash.
While waiting for the all-clear from officers, Prakash described the evacuation as "really terrifying" in light of the recent school shootings in the country.
"My instinct was just to run. It was really clear we needed to just get off," said Prakash.
Officers on scene said there is no indication of any danger to the school or the nearby community. "Matter under investigation," the tweet said.
Tweets on social media indicated that students were evacuated and some were outside the school. Nearby streets were blocked off by police.
An evacuation notice was sent out via emergency alert system, which contacts parents via phone call and e-mail. Some parents already picked up their children from the school.
There is a large Sheriff's Office presence at Cupertino HS in @CityofCupertino. A "robotic call" was received by the school threatening harm. The Sheriff's Office is on-scene and there is no indication there is any danger to the school or nearby Community. Matter under invest.


A couple are rowing on a pebbled beach, their voices cutting the air. Storm clouds are gathering overhead and the low green waves grow rougher and wilder by the second.
One half of the couple splits off and strides away. The other hesitates before stepping towards the car park, stopping as something catches their eye.
A crushed tin can, rusting to the colour of old blood, nestled in the grass at the edge of the shore. On some impulse they pick it up, put it in their pocket, then continue on their way.


Furikake is a dry Japanese condiment usually sprinkled over rice. It contains things like: dried fish flakes, sesame seeds, tiny bits of seaweed, egg, teeny shrimp, wasabi, and usually flavored with salt or soy. My favorite to sprinkle over rice is the one with lots of savory bonito tuna flakes, called katsuobushi.
Now I am sure everyone reading this blog knows what chex mix is. It is something very American, at home at casual parties and tailgates. Game day snack food, it has also seen many a college dorm study session. My boyfriend always picks out the rye chips out of chex mix. And all the red sour patch kids out of my sour patch kids. With impunity.
Setting aside my boyfriend's annoying quirks, this is a traditional hapa food, taking American chex mix and putting a twist on it. Before commercial chex mixes were in stores, chex cereal was spiced up at home. This is the Japanese American version.
The flavor is sweet/salty, like Japanese arare/kakimochi (rice crackers). If you make it and it seems too intense, just add an extra couple cups of dry material.
There are tons of different recipes out there for this, but I adapted FOODjimoto's because I liked the idea of the Tapatio and the Worcestershire sauce adding some complexity. I upped the Tapatio, for extra kick, but it was still mild. Instead of almonds, feel free to substitute peanuts, cashews, or anything that strikes your fancy going down the grocery aisle. I don't care for wheat chex, but that's up to you. Besides bugles, try some corn chips! Be creative!
*Nori komi furikake sometimes is labeled in English under the name "nori goma furikake" or "nori gomi furikake."
Preheat the oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit. In a small saucepan, combine the butter, sugar, syrup, and oil and heat over medium, stirring until the sugar dissolves and the butter melts. Take off heat and stir in the shoyu and two sauces. Pour over the dry material in a big aluminum foil roaster. I like these because you can just throw them out afterwards, but you can also line a couple 9"x13" pans in foil. Stir the mix well to distribute the sauce. Place in oven and every 15 minutes stir to continue to coat the pieces well. After the first stirring, sprinkle the entire bottle of furikake over the chex mix, stirring well. Continue to bake and stir every 15 minutes, until the sauce has completely evaporated, normally about 45 minutes to an hour. Let cool completely, then serve.
This makes a lot, and my boyfriend and I can only eat so much, so I packaged some of it up to give to my aunts and grandma.
I just wanted to let you know that this is really yummy and I love the Asian take on the Chex Mix.
What is tapatio & about how long do you bake it for?
What is tapatio & about how long do you bake it with tossing every 15 minutes?
Tapatio is a popular hot sauce (you can substitute a different one of course). It depends on the humidity, but generally about an hour. I'll add that to the recipe, thanks!
Nori Gomi, Nori Komi and Nori Goma are all the same thing. I've updated the recipe to include that information.
3/4 cup or Tbs or whay measure of canola oil?
Cup! Thank you for pointing that out, I have updated the recipe. I can't believe no one else pointed that out in over FIVE years!

Army pays tribute to 7 soldiers died in Arunanchal Pradesh avalanche
Guwahati| Sat, Feb 12 | 1:51 p.m.
The Indian Army on Saturday paid rich tributes to the seven soldiers who died earlier this week after being trapped in an avalanche in Arunachal Pradesh.
Guwahati, Feb 12: The Indian Army on Saturday paid rich tributes to the seven soldiers who died earlier this week after being trapped in an avalanche in Arunachal Pradesh.
Defence spokesman Lt Col Harsh Wardhan Pande said that a wreath laying ceremony was held on Saturday at Tezpur Air Force Station (Assam), where General Officer Commanding, Gajraj Corps, Lt Gen Ravin Khosla and other military officials paid last respects to the bravehearts.
Wreaths were laid on the bodies of Havildar Jugal Kishore, Rifleman Arun Kattal, Rifleman Akshay Pathania, Rifleman Vishal Sharma, Rifleman Rakesh Singh, Rifleman Ankesh Bhardwaj and Garner (TA) Gurbaj Singh, who made supreme sacrifice in the line of duty.
After the wreath laying ceremony, the mortal remains of the soldiers were sent to Akhnoor, Kathua, Dharkalan, Bajinath, Kangra, Ghamarwin and Batala, the slain Army men's native places in the states of Punjab, Himachal Pradesh and Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir.
Pande said that the bravehearts were part of a patrol team which was struck by an avalanche in the high altitude area of Kameng sector in Arunachal Pradesh on February 6. Search and rescue operations were launched immediately, including airlifting of specialised teams.
The rescue teams, displaying the highest degree of camaraderie and esprit-de-corps, recovered their fallen brothers under hostile weather conditions in an area located at an altitude of 14,500 feet which has treacherous terrain and high peaks, the defence spokesman said.
He said that the area of incident was witnessing heavy snowfall and inclement weather since the last few days which made the rescue operations more challenging for the specialised teams tasked to locate and recover the slain soldiers.

Can't wait for the summer to roll around to take your next holiday? Christmas is traditionally the time of year when our finances are stretched to their maximum, and taking a holiday over the holidays may seem unrealistic.
However, there are some bargains to be had if you know where to look. We've rounded up some of our favourite destinations offering cheap Christmas holidays.
Turkey is a year-round destination, but offers excellent value for money during low season. In December and January, hotels and guesthouses commonly drop their prices by up to 50%. Cheap flights to Turkey are widely available from airports right across the UK. Temperatures can touch on the chilly side (around 12C), but you'll still usually get at least five hours of sunshine a day. For festive themed cheap Christmas holidays with a difference, visit the birthplace of St Nicholas himself - Patara on Turkey's southern coast. Patara also offers beautiful beaches, plus fascinating historical sites like the Roman baths, basilica and houses.
Escape the gloomy British weather for some Canary sunshine! The Canaries offer year round sunshine, and December temperatures rarely drop below 16C. With the average temperature being around 21C, you can enjoy the warmth of the sun without the stifling heat that the summer months can bring. Low season also means that there will be less crowds, and hotels and tour operators will be vying for your attention. You're likely to be able to track down a bargain rate on hotels and guesthouses, and tours and activities are often reduced by up to 50%.


If you are a busy family with not a lot of time to put a healthy meal on the table, than the slow cooker is an absolute must have. I'm not sure what I would do without mine. On busy days when you know you don't have hours on end to cook, you simply dump your dinner in the pot, turn it on, and come home to something that feels (and looks! and tastes! and smells!) as though you've been orchestrating all afternoon without interruption.
This is one of those dishes that is on my "go to" list for a quick, easy to put together weeknight slow cooker meal. You literally throw all your ingredients in the pot and let 'er cook until done. It's a true thing of beauty. This chicken dish was inspired by my birthday dinner last weekend at our local Greek restaurant. Ever since I dined there, I feel like I can't get enough of those Eastern European flavors. The dill, the lemon, the feta. Mmmmm. Send me on a one way ticket to Santorini and I'll wave and never look back. Unless of course, one of my friends would decide to cook up a batch of this chicken and subsequently invite me over for dinner. In that case I could probably be convinced to hang around for at least one more meal.
To cook up a batch for yourself all you'll need is a slow cooker and a few choice ingredients.
Look at that delicious marinade. Think rosemary, lemon, balsamic and dill. Now think smiling faces, full tummies and empty plates.
Of course a marinade as gorgeous as this one is nothing without it's meaty mate. Pop in your chicken, get it good and coated and close up shop for the next four to six hours.
Now picture it, you've just walked in from a busy afternoon of running you and your children ragged, you're tired and hungry, the kids are asking what's for dinner and the last thing you want to do is get behind the stove and cook. You open the door to your house and instantly your mood lifts. There is a smell so amazing emanating from your kitchen that you couldn't be in a bad mood if you tried. You head straight over to your now ready to be eaten, "see I told you this day wasn't so bad" meal and open up the top.
A quick batch of noodles, a hunk of greek chicken, and a bit of feta and sliced olives and you're sitting down to a delicious and healthy homecooked meal, wondering why you ever bothered to be stressed out about such a simple concept as dinner.
Add all the ingredients with the exception of the chicken to the marinade.
Add in the chicken and coat all the pieces completely.
Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 4 to 6 hours.
Serve over noodles with sauce from the slow cooker spooned over the noodles and a little feta and olives for good measure.
I love the addition of dill. Mmmmm… dill!! Also, I'm a tad disappointed that your post wasn't about the bananas foster french toast! Will we get to see that anytime soon, I hope?!
Slow cookers are the best, aren't they! Even though I work form home, I still love the feeling that dinner is working itself out in the kitchen with no intervention on my part 🙂 Love the flavors of lemon, rosemary and dill in this!
P.S. I'm an email subscriber and it would be great if your whole feed appeared in your email. I don't always have the time to click over and have a system of archiving to add "to try" recipes for copying later.
I'm a big fan of the crock-pot. I will be remembering this recipe for sure!
I love the flavors but then again I am Greek how couldn't I? It looks delicious and so is Santorini. One of my top favorite islands in the world!
Oh, this looks so lovely and flavorful! I don't break out my slow cooker that often, but I'll have to for this one. At this phase in our lives, we're not that busy in the evenings (I know a future with kids will change that!), but on a lazy Sunday this would be great since it could cook while we're at church. Mmmm.
This looks so good! I love Greek everything! Thanks for sharing!
Always looking for new chicken recipes.Looks totally yum.I love the dish because it cooks all by itself and has dill & rosemary.
I need to get my slow cooker back in action. My meal planning has been abysmal of late. That looks delicious. You need to invent the technology so I can just print it for my dinner!
oh ok I am sold I need to get me one!
The chicken sounds amazing with Greek flavors, an excellent family meal!
Oops! I think I just deleted your reply on accident!
I mean, I don't think it's been that way for too long.
Oh my goodness, this looks SO good!!! Another must-try!
And I love your new banner/header look 😉 I like the purple color and the mc logo!
Looks and sounds delicious. I can almost smell it when I close my eyes.
Hey, hon, though, it's really hard to read your blog with the background color and the text color you've got here. I had to highlight everything in order to read it. Help a girl out, can you?
Nice – I love to try new slow cooker recipes!
Oh wow! That is really pretty!
Another reason as to why I need a slow cooker. This recipe sounds incredible.
This is my first visit to your blog! Thanks for a great slow cooker recipe – I was looking for one with chicken that didn't involve tomatoes. This sounds delicious! Thanks for sharing – looking forward to coming back often for more recipe ideas.
this is perfect– doable and delish!
Tried this tonight! It was DELISH!!!!
I really could stand to dig out my slow cooker more often. Fabulous.
I love slow cookers and don't use mine enough .Yes, it's great to come home to a meal that's practically serving itself!
Just found your site and love,love, love it!! I can't wait to try this recipe! Yum!
This sounds so yummy and I haven't hit the grocery store yet this week!
I only purchase, prepare or eat chicken breasts. Will this recipe work OK with just chicken breasts?
Sounds wonderful, and I really like that there isn't a can of cream of soup in there. Thanks!
love your blog! this year we made a resolution (if you will) to eat out less and eat in more!
Looks great! Exactly what I'm looking for- doing a Greek night tomorrow when a friend comes over and have to go into the office! Love crockpots.
Any suggestions on a substitute for the white wine? Is it necessary? Chicken broth, white wine vinegar, anything like that?
Can you make the marinade the night before??
This had a nice taste and was pretty simple to throw together. Next time I will cut down on the olive oil and probably omit the chicken broth and instead sprinkle some bullion powder in. Slow cookers tend to render out much more liquid than baking which can dilute your spices. I may try oregano in place of the rosemary next time also. Served it with rice and the kids and hubby both really like it.
I'm fairly new to this slow cooker thing. I tried the recipe and it was done in 3 hours. (It tastes great, just a tad overcooked I think). Just wondering what size crock pot you made yours in? And, if you have any suggestions for things to add into the crock pot to help even out the cooking? Thanks!
To the chicken breast only crowd- Yes, you can absolutely sub chicken breasts! Cook on high about 2 hours and test. It will likely be done if you used boneless.
I linked over from a OAMC website. I'm guessing to freeze you just prepare the marinade, toss in the chicken, freeze, thaw the day before, and cook as usual. Anybody verify this?
I meant it will likely be done in less if you used boneless.
I prepared the marinade, added the chicken, and froze it. The day I defrosted it, I forgot to put it in the crockpot. I came home from work and cooked it in the oven for about 45min. Then, I BBQ it until it was crispy. It was fantastic! Thanks for the recipe.
This dish looks lovely! I'm rarely inspired to take my slowcooker out because it always feels like more work than baking, but I do want to try this. One question, in the picture your picture has a lovely golden brown almost carmelized top – how do you get this effect in the crock pot?
Looks great; some of our favorite flavors! Fyi: I believe you meant "emanating" from the kitchen, not "ruminating", which means to "meditate" as in chewing the cud like a cow does.
After cooking the chicken, all of that delicious marinade is left over, so I cooked some pasta directly in the marinade instead of in water. It brings a whole new dimension to the pasta!
I was wondering how many this serves and or what quantity of chicken you used? It would be really helpful to know. Looking forward to making this!
Made this today, no substitutions. There was a LOT of liquid in the crockpot so I boiled it down with a flour slurry to thicken it – next time I will degrease the broth as well. I put the chicken pieces in the broiler for 5 minutes to dry them out and brown them up a little. Added olives and feta as suggested and served with noodles. Very tasty and easy.

Unity Of Nigeria Is Negotiable, Says Coalition Of Yoruba, Middle Belt Groups
Following Buhari's claim that Nigerians are politicizing "isolated incidents of violence", a group of Nigerians comprising various tribes of the country has protested the president's handling of growing insecurity, saying the unity of Nigeria is negotiable.
The protesters from different ethnic groups also wrote a letter to President Muhammadu Buhari demanding urgent action to put an end to the killings.
"We also want you to know that the unity of Nigeria is negotiable. Injustice and strife can never water the tree of unity and it can never be forced forever, except we allow justice reign. We, therefore, want to bring it to your attention that time is fast running out: without restructuring and justice, the union will end in chaos. It is our desire to remain as one, prosperous and united nation under God, but we must work for it. We must restructure Nigeria. Let us do it, Mr. President.
"Unfortunately, your regime and its poster boys have publicly narrowed down everything to politics and hatred for President Muhammadu Buhari. This is not wisdom. These challenges predate your coming to power in 2015, but they have been terribly aggravated and accentuated in an unprecedented manner by your seeming aloofness and lack of capacity to tackle them," the group said.
This has come a few days after the Afenifere chieftain, Pa Reuben Fasoranti's daughter, Funke Olakunrin was killed by suspected herdsmen.
The group added, "The painful and gruesome killing of our dear sister, aunt, and mother, Mrs. Funke Olakurin, the daughter of our father and an elder statesman, Pa Fasonranti, by suspected Fulani herdsmen, has in the last couple days brought to the fore, the terrible experience of the ordinary people and local communities in the hands of these herdsmen.
"This is one death too many. May her soul and many others killed by these barbarians continue to rest in peace.
"Several of our farmers have been killed, maimed, assaulted, their wives and daughters raped and brutalized and many have abandoned their farms and lands and become destitute in other places.
"No one is making up these stories, and we can boldly say they have even been underreported in the media. If Nigeria must endure and remain united in peace, development, and prosperity, social justice must be enthroned."
Full Text Of Statement
Dear Mr. President,
Is it the time to start singing the Nunc dimittis? Our nation is trapped and encircled by forces of anarchy and terror, our people groan in pain and bleed under the terror of marauders, our lands are subjected to evil-capture, while injustice thrives as a rule. What shall we then do? Shall we abide under oppression so that Nigeria's unity is not negotiated?
Woe betides a nation where truth is forsaken and falsehoods are elevated to statecraft. Our dear nation Nigeria is on the brink of unimaginable catastrophe, except we act to stop the doom. Letters, statements, criticisms, and concerns have been expressed by prominent Nigerians and the common man, yet, all of this cannot fully illustrate the weight of the danger that is hovering over country.
Unfortunately, your regime and its poster boys have publicly narrowed down everything to politics and hatred for President Muhammadu Buhari. This is not wisdom. These challenges predate your coming to power in 2015, but they have been terribly aggravated and accentuated in an unprecedented manner by your seeming aloofness and lack of capacity to tackle them.
Security trumps every other consideration for many Nigerians who worked selflessly for your ascension to power in 2015. Even those who did not vote for you had believed that security, is one area where you will do better. But today, even Katsina the home state of Mr. President is under the threats of bandits. In many parts of our country, killer and terrorist herdsmen continue to unleash terror on our lands and make life unbearable for our farmers while the threat of food insecurity looms.
The painful and gruesome killing of our dear sister, aunt, and mother, Mrs. Funke Olakurin, the daughter of our father and an elder statesman, Pa Fasonranti by suspected Fulani herdsmen, has in the last couple days brought to the fore, the terrible experience of the ordinary people and local communities in the hands of these herdsmen. This is one death too many. May her soul and many others killed by these barbarians continue to rest in peace.
Several of our farmers have been killed, maimed, assaulted, their wives and daughters raped and brutalized and many have abandoned their farms and lands and become destitute in other places. No one is making up these stories, and we can boldly say they have even been underreported in the media.
The concerns over ethnic profiling of these herdsmen ravaging our lands as Fulani herdsmen were made worse by the refusal of Mr. President to show the kind of leadership some past leaders demonstrated while in office. Former President Olusegun Obasanjo did not vacillate over OPC, he confronted the threats posed by the group not minding any ethnic affiliation. Late Lady Dora Akunyili battled his brothers in the Southeast over fake drugs.
Late President Musa Yar'Adua did not think religious consideration or concern over Boko Haram when he ordered the 2009 onslaught. President Goodluck Jonathan returned to the creek to discuss with the Niger Delta militants – a group also profiled, but we cannot remember the Niger Deltans threatening hell over this. Even President Buhari had in the past called them Niger Delta militants.
About two decades ago, Gen. Buhari led a delegation of Fulani elders to Ibadan to defend the interest of Fulani herdsmen. He showed courage and leadership to his people and this group. It is, therefore, disingenuous to accuse our leaders and people of ethnic profiling for speaking against the menace of herdsmen in our lands. And that is why we have come to visit you today to ask some pertinent questions, but security operatives will not allow us to get to Aso-Rock.
We have come to ask, why are you refusing to act over the abundance of intelligence you have over the gathering storms in our nation? How can we address these problems and put an end to the killings, terror as well as the ethnic profiling based truth and conscience? We do not intend to profile the ethnic group of our Fulani friends with criminality because we are all humans under God. We do not think any sensible Nigerian derives any joy in doing this. But the locals bearing the pains know their oppressors.
Mr. President, in your hands, lies the opportunity to address this problem if you are ready to show leadership. We challenge you to demonstrate courage and call a spade a spade like other leaders. It is time to call Miyetti Allah to order. It is time to act over the herdsmen terrorizing our lands. It is time to rule with justice and courage. Aside from the security challenges, we also want you to know that open grazing is not sustainable due to rising population explosion and the threat of climate change. Lands are not growing, while food security is threatened. This is the time to ranch and keep the cows healthy, this is the time to properly educate the herders and integrate them and not isolate them inside Ruga.
"Ignorance, allied with power, is the most ferocious enemy justice can have." – James Baldwin. Today is International Day of Justice. The 2019 theme: If You Want Peace & Development, Work for Social Justice. The United Nations has made it clear that Social justice is an underlying principle for peaceful and prosperous coexistence within and among nations. If Nigeria must endure and remain united in peace, development, and prosperity, social justice must be enthroned. We are a people and a nation in distress but we can be healed by Justice and truth. This is the time to act and save Nigeria.

Medical marijuana use is legal in more than one-half the states. Furthermore, a handful of state now legalized recreational use of marijuana. In a few more years, it is likely that more states will legalize the use of marijuana. With legalization reaching a fever pitch it is natural for some people to think that they can engage in lawful activity and their employer cannot punish them for it.
Unfortunately, that is not true. There are very few laws that protect marijuana use from being used as grounds for termination. In fact, even in the states that prohibit employers from firing people for engaging in lawful activity outside of work, those protections do not apply. A seminal case decided in Colorado ruled that marijuana remains illegal at the federal level. Therefore any state protections are invalid.
In short, your employer can fire you fail a drug test, even if you have a medical card and a legitimate medical reason for smoking marijuana. In the case mentioned above, the plaintiff was a gentleman who was a quadriplegic who needed marijuana to mitigate his pain and he still lost his case.
If you believe that your rights as an employee were violated, then you may want to contact a lawyer – you could have a valid employment claim. Keep in mind, just because your first claim isn't valid, does not mean you or your co-workers have suffered other violations of your rights. Usually, once one claim is discovered, there are dozens of other violations. An attorney can go over your case and help you sift through the facts to unearth the actionable claims.


You Gotta Be Fit to Drive Fast!
Check out this review on P90X3 for the best workout to get fit.
I will do a more thorough graduation post soon with all of the specs, build sheet, etc, probably over the Winter.
At the moment, the car is stored away for the Winter. The hard top still needs headliner and a new rear plexi, plus it needs to be wet sanded and polished. I'm also going to perfect the paint some more for a Concourse in SoCal in the Spring.
What a great job you have done. It's beautiful. I have been visiting your site for a few years now. Congrats.

Every year the Chronicle of Higher Education seems more attention to give the issues around academic employment, especially the use of contingent and non-tenure track faculty ("Adjuncts Gather to Discuss Tactics in Campaign for Equity"). It reminds me of the slow 30 year slog it took for global climate change to reach a place in mainstream media. Mainstream education media has taken a similar slow path to putting the our labor issues on its agenda. Tenure isn't coming back, but we could build a better system if we were given the tools.
Unfortunately, it might take another decade or more to get our government, even our now liberal administration and congress, to begin to raise alarms about the dissolution of the tenure system. The Chronicle's reporting on the president's speech about education reports only that he's going to talk about initiatives to reform the student loan system ("President to Tout Achievements in Higher-Education Policy"). Those were great changes, but I wish he would also talk about the need to reform the labor laws to make union organizing easier.
He's a man who wore the uniform of this country for 22 years, and refused to break faith with those troops in Iraq who have now brought victory within sight.
And as the mother of one of those troops, that is exactly the kind of man I want as commander in chief. I'm just one of many moms who'll say an extra prayer each night for our sons and daughters going into harm's way.
And one week from tomorrow – September 11th – he'll deploy to Iraq with the Army infantry in the service of his country.
In our family, it's two boys and three girls in between – my strong and kind-hearted daughters Bristol, Willow, and Piper.
Our family has the same ups and downs as any other … the same challenges and the same joys.
It"s a good idea to keep the kids out of the press, as Senator Obama has insisted. I think, though, that we deserve answers to some specific parenting questions from Governor Palin, especially given that she has framed her credibility, at least in part, in terms of her role as a mother. There are several issues that seem worth exploring.
I'd like to know, for example, how she feels about embryonic screening, given her apparent willingness to have a child despite evidence of genetic damage. I find this choice especially troubling, given that she already had four kids. Does her opposition to abortion, in effect, make this sort of testing irrelevant?
I'd also like to know if she applied the 'abstinence only' model to her discussions of sexuality with her children. If she did, I would like to know if she now questions her decision and if she plans to stick to that plan with her other children. I find her behavior troubling here too, because it suggests a kind of ideological rigidity.
There are other questions about Governor Palin's ethical judgment in more official matters, too. The choice of Governor Palin has also suggested questions about Senator McCain's judgment; ambition seems to have been his guiding principal. We won't have a chance to find out unless Governor Palin stops hiding from interviews.
War does not make that much sense; countries don't make that much sense; people don't make that much sense.
I work out out a local gym every other day or so and I am always amazed at what I see around me each time I go. There are mirrors everywhere, as if the point were vanity instead of health. This is why so many people I know avoid these places. Who wants to compete against all of these young bodies?
The narcissism is only the start, though. Or, rather, the narcissism is, uh, only a reflection of a more profound self-absorption. I'm not talking about the usual complaints of isolation: everyone alone on their "equipment" listening to their MP3 players. Actually, I wish more people would use MP3 players.
The problem, rather, is that people seem to not have a clue about how to be social. The gym itself is quite small but it has plenty of windows and it's rarely crowded. So I often work out alone with the lights out. It's not dark at all, especially on a sunny day.
I like the idea of saving energy, for one thing, and the natural light is much more pleasant than the fluorescents, which I swear I can see flickering. Any time another person comes in, however, they inevitably flip on the light, without acknowledging me in the slightest way.
I was raised to believe that this was a pretty rude thing to do, but it's only the start of it. There's one women who comes several times a week to work out and then shower and get dressed, apparently for work. She uses a small, brightly lit bathroom off of a medium-sized room that people use for warm ups and stretches.
The other day, after pretzeling away on the Swiss Ball for ten minutes or so I bunced up to hit the elliptical and flipped the light off on the way out. Five minutes later she marched out to the main room to demand, angrily, that I not turn out the light when she was in the bathroom.
Now, I might be able to sympathize with a women suspicious of darkness in a gym. Still, it did seem odd that she took such affront, as if no logic but hers could make sense. She wasn't showering in the dark or anything. She's not the worst of the bunch, though, by any means. That honor goes to Macho Man.
The worst Macho Man experience is when he has shown up before you. First, every light in the gym, ffrom front to back and often including the bathroom, is turned on. I suspect that he warms up with light switches. Second, the television is blaring CMT and the stereo is blasting some awful classic rock station.
Meanwhile, Macho Man is on the treadmill, huffing and puffing loudly, running with heavey clumping strides, sometimes giving off sharp, dramatic grunts. He has the TV turned up loud because he can't hear it over his own noise. Then, after about ten minutes, he hops off– that's no metaphor– and trots off to the weight room.
He has the stereo turned up because he has to hear it from across the gym. Next, after another ten minutes, he comes bounding back into the room and hops on the stationary bike for another ten or fifteen minute round of thump, huff, puff, and grunt. Sometimes he brings his friend and they do this routine together.
It reminds me of how certain people drive so recklessly in bad weather, seemingly unaware that they are risking the lives of other people. Luckily, all that is at risk here is irritation. Well, Macho Man might be causing some sort of unpredictable havoc on his body. He's pretty young though, so I suppose the clichés about invunerability apply.
The owner of the gym is very differant. I often see her on Saturday mornings, when she comes in to clean. She always says hello and wants to start a conversation even if I am clearly listening to my MP3 player and straining away at the end of a long work out. To her, though, it's a scoial situation and she at least wants to make the effort.
And there"s the older couple who come in whatever clothes they happen to be wearing at the time… They certainly didn't buy any special shoes. There's something refreshing in the fact that they don't know the proper costume. But it is also very odd to watch them take truns struggleing on the stationary bike, both in ill fitting jeans and flannel shirts.

New York City had been, arguably, the birthplace of punk rock with the Ramones and the scene at CBGB in the mid to late-1970s, but while the next generation of punks emerged in the hardcore scenes in places like Washington DC and Los Angeles in the early 80's, NYC was initially quiet. A few bands like The Mad and The Stimulators hinted at a new direction. The Stimulators featured Harley Flanagan on drums and attracted some of what would become the NYHC scene to their shows. The Stimulators and the Mad also made friends with Washington, DC's Bad Brains, and gave the latter places to stay in town.
New York City would come to play a central role in the development of hardcore. An important scene finally emerged in 1981 with the emigration of the Bad Brains. Roger Miretof Agnostic Front asserts that "We started using the term 'hardcore' because we wanted to separate ourselves from the druggy or artsy punk scene that was happening in New York at the time … We were rougher kids living in the streets. It had a rougher edge".The early scene was documented on the 1982 New York Thrash compilation.
Grunge (sometimes referred to as the Seattle sound) is a subgenre of alternative rock and a subculture that emerged during the mid-1980s in the Pacific Northwest U.S. state of Washington, particularly in Seattle and nearby towns. The early grunge movement revolved around Seattle's independent record label Sub Pop and that region's underground music scene. By the early 1990s its popularity had spread, with grunge bands appearing in California, then emerging in other parts of the United States and in Australia, building strong followings and signing major record deals.
Grunge was commercially successful in the early–mid 1990s, due to releases such as Nirvana's Nevermind, Pearl Jam's Ten, Soundgarden's Superunknown, Alice in Chains' Dirt and Stone Temple Pilots' Core. The success of these bands boosted the popularity of alternative rock and made grunge the most popular form of rock music at the time. Although most grunge bands had disbanded or faded from view by the late 1990s, they influenced modern rock music, as their lyrics brought socially conscious issues into pop culture and added introspection and an exploration of what it means to be true to oneself. Grunge was also an influence on later genres such as post-grunge (e.g.: Creed and Nickelback) and nu metal (e.g.: Korn and Limp Bizkit).
Grunge fuses elements of punk rock and heavy metal, such as the distorted electric guitar used in both genres, although some bands performed with more emphasis on one or the other. Like these genres, grunge typically uses electric guitar, bass guitar, a drummer and a singer. Grunge also incorporates influences from indie rock bands such as Sonic Youth. Lyrics are typically angst-filled and introspective, often addressing themes such as social alienation, apathy, concerns about confinement, and a desire for freedom.
A number of factors contributed to grunge's decline in prominence. During the mid-to-late 1990s, many grunge bands broke up or became less visible. Nirvana's Kurt Cobain, labeled by Time as "the John Lennon of the swinging Northwest", appeared unusually tortured by success and struggled with an addiction to heroin before he died by suicide at the age of 27 in 1994.

DC Health provides update on COVID-19 vaccine distribution plans
By FOX 5 DC Digital Team
WASHINGTON (FOX 5 DC) - D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser and DC Health provided an update on Thursday on the District's COVID-19 vaccine distribution plan as the Pfizer vaccine is anticipated to be approved in the coming days.
D.C. Department of Health Director Dr. LaQuandra Nesbitt says even after the Pfizer vaccine is approved for Emergency Use Authorization, the CDC Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) must issue recommendations for vaccine distribution. Vaccinators also must be fully trained before the vaccine can be distributed at the community level.
DC Mayor Muriel Bowser, DC Health provide COVID-19 vaccine distribution update
D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser and DC Health provided an update on Thursday on the District's COVID-19 vaccine distribution plan as the Pfizer vaccine is anticipated to be approved in the coming days.
The District will receive 6,825 doses of the vaccine during the initial allotment. Six sites throughout the District will receive that initial allotment: Medstar Washington Hospital Center, Howard University Hospital, The George Washington University Hospital, Children's National Hospital, Kaiser Permanente and Medstar Georgetown University Hospital.
These sites will partner with health care providers across the District including DC Fire & EMS and DC frontline public health workers.

Dr. Nesbitt says D.C. will use a phased approach to vaccination in line with CDC guidance. Phase 1A will include health care workers and first responders, Phase 1B will include essential workers and at-risk residents, Phase 2 will include the rest of Phase 1 populations and the general public and Phase 3 will include the general public.
Dr. Nesbitt says around 85,000 residents meet the requirements to qualify for Phase 1A, meaning the initial allotment of the vaccine will not be enough to vaccinate everyone in this phase. She says allotment for the District in the coming weeks will depend on production by the manufacturer and community need.
As of this time, DC Health is not able to give specific dates for when specific phases will begin. However, those who qualify for each phase will be reached out to by the D.C. government accordingly.

Q: Rails: How to filter results? In the index action of my Users controller, I am able to capture all users belonging to the same city as the current_user in an ActiveRecord::Relation object @users. In my view I am able to iterate through @users and display the results. What I'd like to do is give the current_user further options to filter the results. I want to add a form and filter button in the view, which will allow the current_user to select filters, such as:

*

*Minimum Age and Maximum Age (Drop Down)

*Religion (Drop down of checkboxes)

*Diet (Drop down of checkboxes)

*And so on.

Once the current_user makes the selections and clicks on filter, the results will be filtered based on the criteria selected. I want to know how to build a query to do this?

A: Best bet would either be Ranksack: https://github.com/ernie/ransack
This provides search focused functionality.
OR
Squeel provides an easy to use interface for advanced querying for ActiveRecord: https://github.com/ernie/squeel

A: It's also relatively simple to do this yourself without a library by creating scope methods in your user model.  For example:
 class User

   def self.filtered_by_age(opts = {})
     min = opts[:min]
     max = opts[:max]
     user = User.arel_table

     if min && max
       self.where(:age => min..max)
     elsif min && !max
       self.where(user[:age].gt(min))
     elsif max && !min
       self.where(user[:age].lt(max))
     else
       self.all
     end
   end

 end

Which you could then call with
@users.filtered_by_age(min: 25, max: 52)

Jeremy Lin's InterVarsity story was first written two years ago on InterVarsity's StudentSoul website when he was still a student at Harvard. The interview revealed his passion for daily Bible study, weekly small group meetings, regular church attendance, and sharing the gospel with his teammates by word and by example.
In 2012, after Jeremy set an NBA record for the New York Knicks with an incredible stretch of 109 points scored in his first four starts, and the New York Times included a link to StudentSoul in one of its Jeremy Lin stories, page views went through the roof. The excitement was dubbed "Linsanity." Following the 2012 season, Lin went on to sign a contract with the Houston Rockets.
HRAACF is one of eight InterVarsity chapters at Harvard and currently has about 50 students regularly involved in its activities. Its history goes back 18 years to a time when InterVarsity student leaders noticed a growing number of Asian American students who weren't engaged by any campus ministry.
One of those leaders, Tom Lin, graduated in 1994 and joined InterVarsity staff, commissioned to plant HRAACF. Today Tom Lin (no relation to Jeremy) is InterVarsity's Vice President for Missions and the director of Urbana 12.
InterVarsity AAM chapters are operating on over two dozen other U.S. college campuses. However, more than two thirds of the Asian American students involved with InterVarsity are a part of multiethnic chapters.


Canadian Helicopters Income Fund (CHL.UN) (the "Fund") announces today that it has been notified by Ornge that Ornge will not exercise its option to extend beyond the initial term ending March 31, 2012, the contract pursuant to which Canadian Helicopters Limited ("CHL"), a subsidiary of the Fund, provides services in support of Ornge's transport medicine operation (the "Services Agreement"). The Services Agreement will therefore terminate on March 31, 2012.
The Services Agreement was entered into on March 31, 2009 as part of a broader transaction through which Ornge purchased from CHL the fleet of 11 Sikorsky S-76 helicopters and other aviation assets (including four hangars) used in Ornge's transport medicine operation. Under the Services Agreement, CHL continues to provide flight operations, maintenance, airworthiness and related support for Ornge's fleet of helicopters over a period coinciding with the approximate two-year transition period starting in late 2010, during which Ornge's fleet of Sikorsky S-76 aircraft are scheduled to be replaced by 10 AgustaWestland aircraft. Canadian Helicopters' revenues from its contracts with Ornge were expected to decline as a result of this transition, regardless of any extension of the Services Agreement. Total revenues for the Fund from its contract with Ornge during the current financial year are expected to be approximately $34m. Consistent with its expectations regarding revenues over Ornge's fleet replacement period, Canadian Helicopters estimates total revenues for the Fund from its contract with Ornge for the twelve months period ending March 31, 2012 to decline to $26.5m. The Fund anticipates that the termination of the Services Agreement will entail certain contract termination costs, none of which are expected to be material. See "Forward Looking Statements" below.
"We are proud to have provided rotary wing emergency transport and related support, including for a period the provision of paramedics, to the residents of Ontario over the last 34 years and wish to thank the government of Ontario through its various entities we have served, for the opportunity they have given us to do so. Through our extensive experience in rotary wing operations and commitment to provide safe and efficient services, we believe that we have provided Ontario residents with the highest quality of medical transport at lowest costs. While we would welcome the opportunity to provide these services to the Province of Ontario again, the decision not to extend its contract with Canadian Helicopters also represents an opportunity to redeploy our resources in the pursuit and development of other markets, consistent with our diversification strategy," said Don Wall, President and Chief Executive Officer of Canadian Helicopters.


The owners of this Berkeley Heights, NJ home wanted the walls, ceiling, and trim of the entire first floor of their home painted. The tile ceilings of the hallway and bedroom were removed and new sheetrock ceiling was installed. The entire project was completed in only five days.
Interior painting is a great way to improve the look of your home. For this particular project the homeowners wanted to freshen up their home's walls as well as install a new ceiling, and repaint the trim that had been scratched up by the family dog. The first step in this project was to thoroughly inspect all surfaces.
Once the walls and trim have been thoroughly inspected any imperfections are fixed before painting begins. The walls are carefully sanded and smoothed, any cracks or divots are spackled over.
There were also severe water stains on the ceiling which our team at Monk's would be able to remedy during the interior painting process.
While our team was on the job the homeowners also asked us to remove the tile ceiling from their hallway and bedroom and replace it with a regular sheetrock ceiling.
Once the walls were smoothed and spackled our team was able to apply a coat of primer.
As always, our team is diligent in protecting your home as we work.
The bathroom of this Berkeley Heights, NJ was also treated to a full interior paint job. Over years the steam of a shower will cause the paint in any bathroom to begin to bubble and peel.
Our interior painting process always consists of two thorough coats for the walls and one coat for the trim.
The new sheetrock ceilings our team installed after removing the existing tile ones look great with a fresh coat of paint.
Remember the scratched up window trim? After careful sanding and painting by our team the area is looking as good as new!
In only five days our team at Monk's transformed the interior of this Berkeley Heights home's first floor with a fresh paint job and new sheetrock ceilings.
