SOUP FROM A
SAUSAGE SKEWER
"We had such an excellent dinner yesterday," said an old mouse of the female sex to another who had not been present at the feast. "I sat number twenty-one below the mouse-king, which was not a bad place. Shall I tell you what we had? Everything was first rate. Mouldy bread, tallow candle, and sausage. And then, when we had finished that course, the same came on all over again; it was as good as two feasts. We were very sociable, and there was as much joking and fun as if we had been all of one family circle. Nothing was left but the sausage skewers, and this formed a subject of conversation, till at last it turned to the proverb, 'Soup from sausage skins;' or, as the people in the neighboring country call it, 'Soup from a sausage skewer.' Every one had heard the proverb, but no one had ever tasted the soup, much less prepared it. A capital toast was drunk to the inventor of the soup, and some one said he ought to be made a relieving officer to the poor. Was not that witty? Then the old mouse-king rose and promised that the young lady-mouse who should learn how best to prepare this much-admired and savory soup should be his queen, and a year and a day should be allowed for the purpose."
"That was not at all a bad proposal," said the other mouse; "but how is the soup made?"
"Ah, that is more than I can tell you. All the young lady mice were asking the same question. They wished very much to be queen, but they did not want to take the trouble of going out into the world to learn how to make soup, which was absolutely necessary to be done first. But it is not every one who would care to leave her family, or her happy corner by the fire-side at home, even to be made queen. It is not always easy to find bacon and cheese-rind in foreign lands every day, and it is not pleasant to have to endure hunger, and be perhaps, after all, eaten up alive by the cat."
Most probably some such thoughts as these discouraged the majority from going out into the world to collect the required information. Only four mice gave notice that they were ready to set out on the journey. They were young and lively, but poor. Each of them wished to visit one of the four divisions of the world, so that it might be seen which was the most favored by fortune. Every one took a sausage skewer as a traveller's staff, and to remind them of the object of their journey. They left home early in May, and none of them returned till the first of May in the following year, and then only three of them. Nothing was seen or heard of the fourth, although the day of decision was close at hand. "Ah, yes, there is always some trouble mixed up with the greatest pleasure," said the mouse-king; but he gave orders that all the mice within a circle of many miles should be invited at once. They were to assemble in the kitchen, and the three travelled mice were to stand in a row before them, while a sausage skewer, covered with crape, was to be stuck up instead of the missing mouse. No one dared to express an opinion until the king spoke, and desired one of them to go on with her story. And now we shall hear what she said.

The European Union has granted Morocco 60 million euros to finance the second phase of Morocco's support program of the agricultural sector policy.
The funding convention was signed by the Minister of Economy and Finance Mohammed Boussaid, Minister of Agriculture and Fisheries Aziz Akhannouch, and EU delegation to Morocco Head Ambassador Rupert Joy. The convention aims to improve the income of small farmers.
This new program will provide for the strengthening of several production sectors, development of many local products and the increase in operational and monitoring capacities of the Ministry of Agriculture and Marine fisheries. It will strengthen the performance of the agricultural sector in Morocco in order to make it more competitive and more environment-friendly and contribute more to national food security.
The EU official said that the program, which focuses on considering the environmental dimension and climate change in agricultural development while promoting inclusion of rural women and youth in the different projects, confirms the importance the EU attaches to a balanced and inclusive agricultural development in Morocco.
Mohammed Boussaid said that this program will have significant socio-economic benefits in the coming years and constitutes an important step in achieving the objectives set in the agricultural sector.

When: 7pm on Thursday 16 February 2023
We're pleased to be hosting Jesse Malin for the 20th anniversary concert of his album The Fine Art of Self Destruction – with special guest Trapper Schoepp.
Jesse Malin will be marking his 20th anniversary as a solo artist with a UK and European tour celebrating his acclaimed 2003 debut album, The Fine Art of Self Destruction. Jesse and his band will perform the album in its entirety, plus music from his latest album Sad and Beautiful World, and beyond.
Following his teenage years in the pioneering hardcore band Heart Attack and his 20s fronting the wild and beloved D Generation, Malin took a cue from his songwriting heroes and was ready for a chance to stand alone. The record was recorded over six days in New York City, live and raw. It 'wasn't named for drug or alcohol abuse,' says Malin. 'It was more about a personal wreckage when I looked back on my life, from my parents' divorce to failed relationships, broken up bands, dropping out of school, crashing cars, breaking things. It was more of a spiritual journey in some sense.'
'I was still learning how to sing and tell stories. I had started out stripped down, just me and a piano player, but when Ryan Adams came in to produce, he added some instrumentation that really lent itself to a more open, wider feel. These songs were written in a little apartment downtown, without a record deal, a manager, or any expectation of anything coming of it – just a need to write them.'
The Fine Art of Self Destruction will be reissued in early 2023 with a bonus disc of the entire album re-recorded and reimagined. Stay tuned for more information in the coming weeks.
'Malin writes vivid songs with killer tunes and sings them with scary conviction. There is simply nothing more you can demand from a great rock record.' – The Times
Special guest is Trapper Schoepp. 'What's most important to me is to be a link in the chain of folks singers before and after my time,' Trapper Schoepp says in light of his forthcoming album, Siren Songs. Recorded at Johnny Cash's Cash Cabin in Hendersonville, TN, Trapper continues down the trail trod by his musical heroes. In 2019, the Milwaukee singer-songwriter published a long-lost song with Bob Dylan called On, Wisconsin – making him the youngest musician to share a co-writing credit with the Nobel Prize laureate. The song led to a #1 trending article in Rolling Stone and over a hundred tour dates worldwide.
Most recently, Trapper is featured on the Siren Songs album cover posing in the same pond where Johnny Cash would read and dispose of letters sent to him by Bob Dylan, protecting a private correspondence and kinship that started in the sixties. At these storied grounds, Trapper recorded his strongest collection of songs steeped in traditional American and Irish folk music – aided by producers John Jackson (Jayhawks, Ray Davies) and Patrick Sansone (Wilco).
'I was instantly captured. Trapper steps right up and delivers his story like few can' – Jody Stephens, Big Star
Please note Tommy Stinson can no longer play due to a hip replacement.

* Gentle and healing for shingles and chicken pox.
* Can be applied as frequently as desired.
Best used in conjunction with BIO-SIL Colloidal Silver (which can be taken internally and also be sprayed onto the affected area).
I cannot say enough good things about the amazing products that Bio-Sil have on offer from Colloidal silver and colloidal copper. I have been using Bio-Sil's colloidal silver for over 2 years and have seen immense benefits ranging from boosting my immune system, to healing eye infections and wounds rappidly. The colloidal silver gel has assisted family and friends suffering from eczema and psoriasis. If only more people knew about the invaluable benefits of colloidal silver and copper.
I use your Biosil silver often and recommend it to people as an excellent antiseptic and disinfectant. Excellent disinfectant topically or swallowed in small quantities.
I had ulcers in my mouth since November. Nothing helped. My chemist said try this and I was desperate as my mouth felt like a piece of sandpaper. That was Tuesday, today is Thursday and my mouth is healed. A wonderful product. Keep up the good work!

Do you organize your clothes? Your drawers?
We're doing the best we can to maximize any storage space we have whether it be for clothes, suitcases or rolls of toilet paper. Al has a self standing closet that we got at IKEA a few years ago where he keeps all of his clothing and I use the small closet in the bedroom and a dresser for mine.
You may be thinking that I'm nuts and that this takes way too much work to keep up with. But truthfully, it takes me maybe an extra minute when I put the clothes away and I love it for many reasons. The first being that I can see every item of clothing.
When they were just stacked before I would have to tear through everything to find what I'm looking for, resulting in a larger mess. This way also allows so much more space. I've never been able to keep sweaters in my dresser because of lack of space and now they all fit.
The only items that I still have stacked are yoga pants and workout bottoms. They were all just too flimsy to line up like this. I also don't bother to fold socks, underwear or tights. They each have a bin in the top drawer and get tossed in there.
How do you organize your drawers/clothing? Do you have a routine? Do you care? Am I nuts?!
Love it! I have an armoire, and am constantly restacking the messy piles, so I need to come up with something to keep it in order. Perhaps I need to invest in some clear bins as well. I use canvas bins under the bed for my collection of scarves, holiday socks and other items so that helps some. Good ideas as always – keep them coming!!!
Yes, for sure some bins would be great in an armoire. Under the bed bins are the best, I use those too..only I think mine have wrapping paper in them haha!
You know… I thought I was crazy organized but this is a really good idea. I just recently bought bins for my shoes. It's much better to be able to see the shoes… and easier to pick what shoes I wear each day!!!
Six years later and I'm STILL organizing my drawers like this! I also organize my baby's closet like this too. It's so much easier to see everything!

A Wolf at the Door: A Jesse James Dawson Novel
This is the third novel starring modern-day samurai Jesse James Dawson. If someone has sold their soul to a demon, they can contact Jesse and he will fight to get that person's soul back. But, if he loses, his own soul will be lost, too.
It is the day after Christmas, and Jesse has promised his wife and daughter that he will stay home and play with his child instead of fighting demons. Unfortunately, a few months ago (in the previous book A Shot in the Dark), Jesse made a deal with a familiar demon, whom Jesse calls Axel. In exchange for helping Jesse's brother and friends, Jesse promised a favor to Axel. Now the demon has come to collect. Axel wants Jesse to travel to Los Angeles and protect a famous movie star who who has made her own deal with a demon. Axel doesn't want Jesse to fight the demon, only to protect the woman against others. Gretchen Keene has been collecting other people's souls, and whoever is with her when she dies can collect the souls--so Axel wants her alive. Over the protestations of his family, Jesse flies to Los Angeles.
Jesse has more than a few preconceived notions about what a movie star and her people are going to be like, and he is somewhat correct. There is, however, more to Gretchen than meets the eye. She already has two body guards, neither of whom believe in magic or demons, but they are cordial enough to Jesse.
Stewart's smooth, easy-reading style employs a lot of humor. Jesse is a chatty narrator who tells jokes and self-deprecating lines. There is also a humorous secondary character who runs into Jesse at the worst of times.
Jesse remains the main draw of the series. An engaging, down-to-earth kind of guy, he possesses no magic of his own; but, because his wife, Mira, is a witch, he knows something about it. Mira usually casts protective spells over Jesse and his gear, but now there's a chance that Mira is pregnant so Jesse has to go the other magic user in his town. Cameron, a former priest, has an uneasy relationship with Jesse, but they are both on the side of good so Jesse is willing to trust him this time. Some of the other recurring characters make brief appearances, but most of the cast is new.
While the book is easy to read, it does not hum with much tension or urgency. Other than occasional fight scenes, Jesse just hangs out with Gretchen and her bodyguards.
A Wolf at the Door does not end in a cliffhanger, but Jesse has far more problems than at the outset. We also get to know more about the wider world, about how magic works here, and about the coming great conflict where, most likely, Jesse will play a significant part.
Like the other books in the series, A Wolf at the Door has engaging characters, humor, and action uninterrupted by romance or sex scenes.

Methow Housing Solutions Network Researching Solutions
At the heart of our mission is increasing the economic and cultural vitality of the Methow Valley. One of the ingredients of a healthy community and thriving economy is equitable access to affordable housing.
Recognizing that the local housing crisis in the Methow Valley is dire and complex, TwispWorks is pleased to be working with a group of nonprofit leaders to learn from other communities who have faced similar challenges and find solutions that can work here. Since October 2020, Danica Ready, the Executive Director of the Methow Housing Trust, Kelly Edwards from Room One, Jasmine Minbashian from the Methow Valley Citizens Council and Don Linnertz from TwispWorks have been exploring what other rural, resort communities have been doing to address affordable housing for locals. In February 2021, the group added Sarah Brooks from the Methow Conservancy to aid in facilitation.
The Methow Housing Solutions Network recognized immediately they are not a group of housing specialists. Don Linnertz, TwispWorks' Executive Director pointed out that "from the start, the group named the value of hearing about the housing challenge from all sides", noting "the work would not be complete without input and buy-in from the diverse set of people who see this issue from different aspects. This collaborative approach brings together our community and puts us in a better position to get to work on what is possible."
The collaboration, now calling itself Methow Housing Solutions Network, is grounded in a straightforward mission statement: "We believe that all local community members should have a stable place to call home. We acknowledge that this is not the case right now and we recognize that if we do not address housing in the Methow Valley soon, the Valley we love may be lost."
There are several other groups working on the housing issue in the valley, including SASH which is focusing on supported senior housing and the Methow Housing Perseverance group which features working class needs. The Methow Housing Trust was formed in 2017 in response to the lack of affordable housing after the 2014-2015 fires. The community land trust homeownership model was chosen as a first housing solution for the community because of its proven track record of immediate and lasting impact in other similar communities, and how it matched with the voices of many local lower- and middle-income community members who wish for the possibility of homeownership here in the Methow.
To date, the Network has focused on two learning efforts: exploring responses of communities facing similar challenges, like Port Townsend, Chelan, Leavenworth, San Juan Island, Sun Valley, and various Colorado counties, and listening to the Methow Valley community.
Throughout June and July, the Network held solution sessions and heard from people in need of housing, employers who are struggling to find workers because of the housing shortage, potential and current developers and builders, architects, real estate agents, housing management professionals, planners, and elected officials.
The Network has been focused on finding tangible steps the Methow Valley community can take to help address long-term rentals, seasonal and workforce housing, and opening pathways to home ownership.
Over the next two months, the Network plans to coordinate their efforts with other groups looking at local housing issues and is working on a community outreach event scheduled for September. At the event, they hope all who are working on ideas for addressing local housing needs will share their ideas and community members will be able to provide their input and get involved if they wish. Stay tuned for more information!

Ben Roethlisberger chastised by Gov. Tom Wolf for getting haircut at barbershop
By Jesse Reed
Charles LeClaire-USA TODAY Sports
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger made headlines Monday for his long-awaited haircut. But it's drawn the ire of Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf.
Gov. Wolf chastised Ben Roethlisberger for going to salon amid pandemic
Roethlisberger shared video of himself, sans mask, at a barbershop Monday. He desperately needed the service, to be sure.
The big problem? Salons and barbershops have not been given the green light to reopen yet in Pennsylvania.
Governor Wolf isn't happy about this situation. He shared his displeasure and chastised Big Ben for putting himself in harm's way.
"My concern is just a general concern and anybody who puts himself or herself into harm's way is something I think we ought to try to avoid," Wolf said in response to a question about Roethlisberger specifically, per PennLive.com. "And when you go to something like a barbershop and you're not protected, I don't care who you are. The chances of that virus wreaking havoc on your life increases.
"I don't think any Pennsylvanian ought to take that chance. I certainly don't want to take that chance myself."
The Cut N Edge barbershop Roethlisberger went to for his big makeover is in Allegheny County. This is a county that is still in the yellow phase of the state's restrictions due to COVID-19. This stage specifically does not allow for barbershops or salons to be open for business.


When supporting a friend with mental illness, it can be really tough to know what you should or shouldn't say and do. It's very much a learning curve, and I must stress that everyone is different! I'm going to write this particular post by focusing on what I need from friends who decide that they're going to support me.
Non-judgement - My illness can cause me to say or do silly things. This can cause backlash when people don't realise that what I've said or done is due to the fact that my judgement is impaired by my illness. In these cases, what I need is a friend who isn't going to tell me I was silly, but someone who reminds me that the whole thing will blow over. I need someone who'll stand by me until it has blown over.
Listen - For me, there's nothing worse than feeling like I'm not being heard. If your friend is saying something to you, listen as though it's the most important thing you've ever heard. You don't necessarily need to respond, a lot of the time just listening is enough. Nobody has all the answers, and whilst that can be frustrating for us, we're aware of that fact. We don't expect you to magically solve all of our problems.
Ask - Mental illness is a personal experience for each individual. We rarely meet textbook definitions, and as for internet resources...basically, we don't fit in boxes. Please don't Google our illness in an attempt to find answers to any questions you have. Just ask us and we'll be able to give you an answer that is specific to us.
Understanding - It can be very easy to lash out at people when you're walking around feeling like you're being consumed by darkness. Try not to hold that against us. We don't want to hurt you, we just genuinely cannot help it.
Company - My anxiety means I often avoid social situations. However, I still have the same basic need for human interaction as anyone else. Sometimes I just need to sit down with a friend and watch a film in silence. Sometimes I need to talk about random stuff. Sometimes I need to go for a walk with someone. Sometimes I just need some company.
I hope this helps if you find yourself supporting a friend with mental illness!


Columnists Mark Shields and David Brooks sift through this week's headlines, including Iran's nuclear surprise, the G-20 summit and U.N. talks.
Mark, how important is this news today about the Iranian nuclear facility?
I'm not sure, Jim. I think it is important. I think it was revealing how the president in the United States did respond in sort of stark contrast to what had happened in the past, I mean, standing there with President Sarkozy and Prime Minister Brown. I mean, I thought that was sort of a signal, the gravity of it, and sort of a new approach.
I thought the words were severe and quite blunt. And maybe, just maybe, the deal on the land-based anti-ballistic missiles that was negotiated last week, removing them from the Czech Republic and from Poland, missile defense system, maybe enlisted Russia, which is going to be key. Without Russia and without China, any sanctions against Iran are going to be more form than substance.
And that's based on — apparently based on U.S. intelligence, which he, Obama, then informed the Brits and the French about, correct?
Right. And intelligence that we've had, apparently, for many months. But what struck me was, you don't write that check. You don't go into this level of urgency and even ultimatum, as Sarkozy did especially, unless you can cash that check, unless there's something behind that check.
So, basically, today they made a bunch of threats, and so that made me think why — what do we have in their pockets that makes them feel comfortable making these threats? And basically, it suggests to me that somewhere in the creation of a new sanctions regime, they've got something.
And it suggests to me that, in the past week, the Russians have dropped hints that they would be supporting the sanctions. I have trouble believing they would have gone to such a level of urgency unless those hints were somehow real, because they have to be able to cash these checks. They've basically made an ultimatum.

Visit a beautiful oriental garden playing Jade Butterfly slots and try to increase your winnings by re-spinning individual reels.
Jade Butterfly is a slot from Pragmatic Play that transports you to a beautiful oriental garden. It is a 5 reel slot with 4 rows and 1024 ways to win. The reels are set in a jade frame behind which you can see mountains and passing birds. To help increase your winnings the game will allow you to respin individual reels and it also offers free spins.
Before you spin the reels you first need to set the coin value, from 0.01 up to 0.50, and how many coins you bet per spin, from 1 to 10. This gives the slot a betting range of 0.30 up to 150 per spin. There is also auto play functionality that will allow you to set up to 100 spins in motion.
Payouts are won by landing enough matching symbols from left to right across the reels. As there are 1024 ways to win there is no need to worry about paylines. The high value symbols are different flowers coloured yellow, pink, red, green and blue, and the lower value symbols are the playing cards 9, 10, J, Q, K and A. The wild symbol is a butterfly and it will substitute for all of the other symbols, except for the scatter symbol, to help and form winning combinations. The scatter symbol says 'Free Spins'.
After any spin of the reels, it is possible to respin any individual reel to try to land a win, or better an existing combination. You can also use it to try to trigger the free spins if there are already two scatter symbols in view. Below each reel you can see how much it costs to respin it.
If you land three or more scatter symbols on the reels you will win thirteen free spins. During the free spins all payouts are tripled and best of all, it is possible to retrigger the free spins indefinitely.
Jade Butterfly offers a top payout of 4000x for landing five yellow flowers along a payline. The pink flower can payout up to 1200x, the red flower up to 600x, the green flower up to 200x, and the blue flower up to 100x. A and K can both payout up to 80x, Q and J can both payout up to 60x, and 10 and 9 can both payout up to 40x.

A tourist accused of Hmong Children stealing her watch in Chiang Mai, Thailand
SUAB HMONG NEWS (09/27/2016) — A tourist accused of Hmong children in Chiang Mai, Thailand "stealing" her watch after she misplaced her watch with her other disclosures.
Read the article below appeared on the khaosodenglish.com
Hmong Parents Protest Children's Conviction by Reddit
By Sasiwan Mokkhasen, Staff Reporter
CHIANG MAI — After a photo spread the world over of their children "stealing" a tourist's watch, two parents of the two Hmong children insisted to police Tuesday it was simply not true.
{sidebar id=11}
The photo of the foreign woman posing with two girls in Hmong ethnic garb in front at Chiang Mai's most famous temple shot to the front page of Reddit after it was posted Sunday under the caption "Girlfriend in the progress of having her watch stolen."
The image, in which one of the children's fingers touch the strap of her wristwatch was taken as certain proof by most of thousands of commentators who upvoted it more than 6,000 times and in news stories it spawned around the world, which took at face value it captured a crime in commission.
Phujarat Jiraphakorn and Lulu Laowa today brought their two daughters, 7 and 10, who appeared in the photo, to answer questions after they were summoned by police.
Anek Chaiwong of Phuping police said the parents were incensed and would have pressed charges for making a false accusation, were the foreign couple still in Thailand.
"The farang did not file any complaint to us," Lt. Col. Anek said. "The parents of the kids are very concerned and said they would have filed a complaint against the false accusation were the farang still here in Thailand."
In comments to the image posted to r/MildlyInteresting, MedardBoss, the original poster, implied the watch was later found missing among a few other disclosures.
"She was a bit drunk tbh," he wrote. The account has since been deleted.
But the couple said they interrogated the girls who denied any wrongdoing. They said they take the girls to Wat Phra That Doi Suthep every weekend to make some money posing for photos with tourists for which they accept voluntary donations.
"They never beg for money," Lulu said. "It always depends on how much the tourists want to give them."
The Hmong mother said she didn't see how it was possible for her daughter to steal a watch from someone's wrist without them noticing.
Their village headman also accompanied them to the police station Tuesday to vouch for the family's clean record. Methaphan Fuengfukitchakarn said they are well known and liked, and said accusing the children on the basis on one photo was not fair to them.
Yet a number of users were less persuaded, leaving comments certain the girls were engaged in criminal subterfuge.
"I've lived in Chiang Mai for almost seven years. Those kids aren't good; they're expert. That watch is long gone," Reddit user Oh_dear_ wrote.
Chiang Mai police aren't convinced, saying they've never known children at the temple to be criminal elements.
"We are deeply concerned," Anek said. "There has been no such incident like this before."

ASIN: B08MDNVXYG
Enthralling in thought and execution Bending delivers a unique and highly intriguing foray into the realms of YA Fantasy. A genre sadly populated by far too many shallow unexciting characters and narratives that seem to plod through recycled storylines but one in which he's proved himself to be wholly original.
Take it as a given that Bending is an accomplished writer, but more than that he breathes the fire of life into his story arcs. Great fantasy doesn't have to be clever, but it does need to stoke the embers of imagination and it's this that Bending does particularly well. With an inventive plot and strong pacing, he creates a powerful and emotional centre that draws us to his characters.
They're an eclectic mix but first and foremost there's Tristan, Leo and Belle who with the help of Kes find themselves transported to the far-flung Cat Galaxy where anything becomes possible with a little imagination!
"Real?" Dweeb spat on the ground. "Real? Reality is poison. Just the thought of it gives me stomach the fidgety fidgets." And so the scene is set for a fantastical adventure that combines mesmerising magic and science fiction in equal measure and ensures tension and suspense is maintained throughout.
Bending's world-building is clearly the manifestation of a highly visual imagination, but perhaps more importantly for a YA Fantasy novel it embodies the spirit of friendship, and heroism that's reminiscent of the much-loved classics.
By any stretch of the imagination, IMAGINATION OF THE STAR CATS proves a superb debut and certainly deserves a prime place on your bookshelf. Boding well for future releases from Bending it is a highly recommended 5 star read.

Why Are We Fascinated By The Supernatural?
Whether it be a spine-tingling ghost story, the sighting of a UFO, stories of Gods and Deities, or the fascination of the occult, most of us are curious in one way or another about the supernatural.


The right questions make all the difference.
You'll walk away with real insights into how to move your potential customers to take the actions that directly benefit your business' bottom line.
Once you've carved up your audience into clear segments, you can identify the most valuable members and start creating personalized, targeted marketing messages that are much more effective (and efficient) than the generalized messages most businesses create.
With the wrong questions, you can end up with poorly defined segments (or worse, with incorrectly defined segments), which means you end up with marketing messages that are ineffective (or that bring the wrong people to your door).
But worse than that, you waste the money you could have made if your marketing was working as it should have been.

Beatrice Ohanessian is a woman of many firsts. She was Iraq's first concert pianist. She was the first ever Iraqi female composer. She performed with the Iraqi National Symphony Orchestra for three decades. Now she makes a quiet living teaching piano from her home in the Twin Cities suburbs.
Edina, Minn. — Beatrice Ohanessian sits at an upright piano, her hands darting across the keyboard with remarkable agility.
She lives in her Edina rambler with her sister. The floors and walls are covered with rugs and tapestries; the fireplace mantel is covered with pictures of her parents and her older brother, who's now in a Minneapolis nursing home.
Ohanessian complains that her playing is terrible - she's out of practice these days. But she remembers when she was a pioneer in music.
Ohanessian was born in Baghdad to Armenian parents. Her mother and father both fled the Armenian genocide in Turkey when they were young. Her father got a job as an accountant for an oil company. The family lived well and Beatrice's parents encouraged both her and her siblings to study music. Beatrice immediately took to the piano.
"My dream was just to go on and on however much I could do in piano - in piano playing," says Ohanessian.
Beatrice was born just as Iraq was developing a deep interest in the arts and culture of the western world. She was in elementary school when it established an Institute of Fine Arts in 1938, and she applied for admission a couple of years later. She was at first turned down as too young, but a Romanian piano teacher saw her perform and took her under his wing. By the age of twelve she was performing weekly recitals at the national radio station.
"My father would take me by the hand and walk me to the broadcasting station," says Ohanessian. "There I would give a program of 15 minutes which is what my professor arranged for. I'll never forget how I trembled when the green light went on - that I will never forget!"
Ohanessian says while her parents were very supportive of her playing, many neighbors looked upon her pursuit of a professional career as inappropriate for a young woman. Still she persisted.
The government created a performing arts scholarship, which allowed her to study at the Royal Academy of Music in London. From there she went to New York to study at Julliard. She travelled to Salzburg for summer classes. Finally she returned to Iraq in 1961 and became principal concert pianist for the Iraq National Symphony Orchestra.
She held the post for over thirty years. She keeps cassettes from those performances, some with long silences from when the power went out in the concert hall.
Ohanessian took a break in the 1970's to teach at the University of Minnesota and Macalester. In all this time she never intended to become a composer. Then Iraq went to war against Iran.
"It was the very first time in my life that I saw Iraqi soldiers marching to war," says Ohanessian. "This was something very strong and shocking. It just moved us; we didn't know what to expect, what was next."
Beatrice took that emotional upheaval and turned it into music: tributes to soldiers, waltzes, and an overture to Hammurabi, the creator of law in Babylon.
She toured from one cultural center to another, performing for - amongst others - French President Jaques Chirac. She became a sort of cultural ambassador herself, often creating friendships where politicians would fail.
"For instance I would make an all French program, an all Spanish program, all American composers, or Swedish," she says. "So these people representing their countries appreciated this. They appreciated what I'm doing and they appreciated that I appreciated their music and that I made an effort to introduce their music to our public."
Ohanessian says she knows only of two evenings when Saddam Hussein attended her performances. On other occasions he would send a representative. She shook his hand once, and he congratulated her on her playing. She says he supported the arts.
"Not everything...not everything," she says. "But a few things, yes. We'd say best is just to continue in our work and not meddle in politics, so that's the way we lived." Beatrice Ohanessian's years performing for and mingling with ambassadors has taught her amazing diplomacy. She expresses concern for the war in Iraq, but without placing blame on any one side. She says she has such affection for both Iraq and the United States that it's hard to watch what's happening in her native country. More than anything, though, she is grateful for the life she's been given.
"I always was lucky enough to do what I wanted to do," she says. "Perform abroad in Europe... I was able to travel, perform and come back. Nobody told me never to go. Nobody refused me visa to get out of the country. They were proud to stamp my passport and send me out because they knew that when I went abroad I was taking something from Iraq to that country where I was going. Something like music. Something nice!"
After her parents died, Beatrice and her sister finally moved to the United States in 1994 to be with their brother, who's lived here since the 1950's. Beatrice was not able to bring much with her. Her most precious souvenirs are the old programs and medals from her performances. She left behind her Steinway piano with a friend. Now Beatrice teaches piano at the University of St. Thomas and gives private lessons at her home.


Symptoms of Lead Poisoning - The big news these days is that several large companies are announcing the voluntary recall of millions of toys, jewelry, makeup, glazed pottery and other products containing significant amounts of lead.
While lead poisoning was once caused mainly by old paint, today a new rash of high lead levels is being seen in American kids, caused by foreign products – mainly from China.
So serious is the resurgence of symptoms of lead poisoning among children that the U.S. Department of Public Health is working on writing a new law to require testing of those entering school for the first time. Lead is also hazardous to adult brains – research is beginning to show that low levels of lead affect adult brains as well as those of children.
For information on sources and causes of lead poisoning, a list of signs and symptoms of lead poisoning, and associated disorders, please scroll down this page or click here.
Highly Recommended: The first thing we recommend for anyone who is experiencing symptoms of lead poisoning toxicity, is to have a hair mineral analysis test done. A hair analysis can determine the amount of toxic lead your body has been excreting over time and what other heavy metals may be overloading your body. The levels of each toxic metal are illustrated in a simple bar graph showing acceptable and unacceptable reference ranges.
The hair analysis also tells you which essential minerals your body is lacking due to lead toxicity, and which important mineral ratios are imbalanced due to heavy metals and other nutritional deficiencies. It also provides valuable insight into your metaoblism and what dietary changes might be most helpful.
To reduce lead in your body, your doctor may recommend chelation therapy. Chelation therapy consists of receiving a chemical chelating agent, usually DMPS or DMSA.
Chelating agents are substances that go through the body to attract and bind heavy metals to be excreted. Chelating agents are usually given in pill form but may also be given intravenously, by suppository or by injection. It takes anywhere from many months to several years for chelation therapy to remove toxic metals, and can cost several hundred to several thousand dollars.
Natural chelating agents include combinations of herbs, amino acids and other nutritional supplements. The drawback to most of these is the time it takes to really clear the body of toxic metals and chemicals. For instance, certain toxic elements can be removed by taking specific combinations of minerals and vitamins. For example, a daily regimen of six magnesium oxide tablets plus one teaspoon of calcium/magnesium powder taken with fresh lemon juice is said to rid the body of arsenic - eventually. But at this rate, it could take years to clear all the chemicals and metals from the body.
For a closer look at conventional chelators used by the medical profession, please click here.
For information on natural methods for eliminating heavy metal toxins safely, scroll down or click here.
Glutathione is a major player in detoxifying the body of many toxic pollutants, including toxic metals and chemicals. Glutathione deficiency impairs the body's ability to get rid of toxins whether they are environmental or the by-products of cellular metabolism. If we have low glutathione levels we slowly become toxic, storing away poisons in our tissues, organs, muscles and brain. We simply cannot detoxify effectively if our glutathione levels are too low, no matter what form of detoxification we undertake.
Being both water and fat soluble, R-lipoic acid passes the blodd-brain barrier and has been shown to chelate metals like mercury that can attach to fatty cellls and brain neurons. It has also been shown to help decrease metals from the liver as well.
Vitamin C helps to lower toxic metal levels as well as elevate calcium and magnesium levels, minerals that are essential for the body, and are often depleted in a toxic terrain.
In combination with vitamin C, vitamin E is a traditional chelating agent used for assiting in heavy metal detox.
It is important to use a vitamin that is devoid of all fillers or additives, and provides 400 IU of d-alpha tocopherol and is extra-high in the total tocopherol complex, especially d-gamma tocopherol.
Together, these supplements enhance each other's effectiveness as a chelating agent. The combination of the two not only inhibit the free radical activity that increases while carrying a heavy metal burden, the presence of one prolongs the presence of the other.
This makes the two vitamins a great combination during the chelation process. Suggested uses vary, but 4,000 - 5,000 mg of Vitamin C and 600 IU of Vitamin E per day is generally considered to be therapeutic in nature.
We are exposed to lead in various ways: particles of lead can be inhaled or swallowed. They can be found in the air, in our water, in our food, and in our yards. Although lead is no longer used in the US in paint, gasoline, water pipes and ceramics, lead-based products still exist.
Lead-based paint in older homes and lead-contaminated house dust are still the most common sources of lead poisoning. Lead can sometimes be found in the drinking water of older homes that used lead in the plumbing.
Lead on toys and jewelry is only risky if the child mouths the objects, chews on them, or uses them for teething. However, children who frequently put their hands in their mouths (which is almost all children), can be at risk after handling lead-contaminated objects.
Lead poisoning may be hard to detect because most lead exposure is asymptomatic, meaning there are no symptoms at all. Lead accumulation in the body is gradual, however any amount of lead in the body is hazardous to brain development.

Super One Foods began in 1943 when a tavern was opened by Tony and Ida Miner in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Tony added a milk cooler and bread to the items they sold when he realized that a majority of the customers left early in the evening in order to purchase their milk and bread before the grocery stores closed for the day. The addition of bread and a milk cooler marked the beginning of the grocery business. The first grocery store was built in Grand Rapids, and was named "Miner's Market." In 1954, the name was changed to "Piggly Wiggly" and they joined the Piggly Wiggly franchise for name recognition. The second store was opened in Virginia, Minnesota in 1963. A third store was opened two years later in Duluth. This location was made the company headquarters shortly thereafter because the company's major suppliers were based at the location. A new warehouse style store was opened in 1975 when son Jim took over the company and it was named "Super One." The number of warehouse style Super One stores has grown, while the other smaller stores have dropped the Piggly Wiggly franchise name and have taken on other names. It has plans of establishing a new store in Superior, Wisconsin.


Does it come as a surprise that in a world where masses are deceived and controlled, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) held a meeting between vaccine scientists, and the purpose of that meeting was to decide what evidence needed to be destroyed?
According to Dr. William Thompson, a senior scientist at the CDC, this meeting already happened and the evidence consisting of studies linking vaccinations to autism has vanished.
This is a startling and unprecedented admission, and the subject is a difficult topic, however Dr. Thompson was extremely adamant about the fact that he and his colleagues purposefully committed scientific misconduct.
This was done to cover up information about what real effects vaccines cause.
"My primary job duties while working in the immunization safety branch from 2000 to 2006, were to later co-lead three major vaccine safety studies. The MADDSP, MMR autism cases control study was being carried out in response to the Wakefield-Lancet study that suggested an association between the MMR vaccine and an autism-like health outcome."
At that time, scientists and researchers were already vocalizing their concerns about the studies. Unfortunately, their voices did not reach far.
"All the authors and I met and decided sometime between August and September 2002, not to report any race effects from the paper. Sometime soon after the meeting, we decided to exclude reporting any race effects. The co-authors scheduled a meeting to destroy documents related to the study. The remaining four co-authors brought a big garbage can into the meeting room, and reviewed and went through all the hard copy documents that we had thought we should discard, and put them into a huge garbage can."
Thompson recalls feeling remorse towards their actions, and that determined him to make copies of everything they were about to destroy.
"However, because I assumed it was illegal and would violate both FOIA and DOJ requests, I kept hard copies of all documents in my office, and I retained all associated computer files. I believe we intentionally withheld controversial findings from the final draft of the Pediatrics paper," he added.
Thompson's statement was submitted by investigative reporter Bill Posey, following a meeting they had in August 2014.
The first autism-MMR vaccine controversy took place in 1998, but the safety of the vaccine had already been brought into question by that time.
In the late 1980s, a particular MMR vaccine batch developed using a mumps strain called Urabe was responsible for causing 3 cases of febrile convulsions per 1,000 vaccinations in the U.K.
Fraudulently burying statistical data is a criminal offense, worsened only by the fact that it costs human lives. Dr. Thompson's story paints a shockingly grim picture that the media pretends as if they don't see it.
As Thompson's copy's of these studies leak out into the deep web, we will check back in on this story with additional proof.
For what reason does Thompson have to lie about his claims and admit to a horrible crime? Please share the dangers of vaccines and help save lives.

Q: JavaScriptSerializer and monodevelop Im reading this book but I JavaScriptSerializer from the System.Web.Script.Serialization namespace because it seems to be unavailable?

A: I know this a really old post but by chance someone stumbles upon this like I have, System.Web.Script.Serialization is available in System.Web.Extensions.

A: Download source here and add as existing project.
Then add as reference:
http://www.bloxify.com/post/MonoTouch-Easy-JSON-Library.aspx
Edit:
You may also find that the monotouch linker is pretty aggressive.  I would have code work fine in the simulator but crash in the device with method missing exceptions.  Add a method somewhere in your app (you dont have to call it) like so:
    public void FixMonoTouchErrors()
    {
        var gc = new System.ComponentModel.GuidConverter();
        var sc = new System.ComponentModel.StringConverter();
        var dc = new System.ComponentModel.DateTimeConverter();
        var cc = new System.ComponentModel.CharConverter();
        var sh = new System.ComponentModel.Int16Converter();
        var sh1 = new System.ComponentModel.Int32Converter();
        var sh2 = new System.ComponentModel.Int64Converter();
        var dec = new System.ComponentModel.DecimalConverter();
        var nc0 = new System.ComponentModel.NullableConverter(typeof(Int16?));
        var nc1 = new System.ComponentModel.NullableConverter(typeof(Int32?));

"Survivor" producer held up in Mexico following wife's murder
by United Reporting	,	April 22, 2010
An arrest could come soon in the case of a Rancho Palos Verdes TV producer who Mexican officials believe may have killed his wife and dumped her body in a sewer near a popular Cancun resort.
Bruce Beresford-Redman, known in Hollywood for his work on "Survivor" and "Pimp My Ride," remains out of custody but under orders to stay in Mexico while officials conduct a forensic examination of his late wife Monica's body.
The examination is 80 percent complete, according to a Mexican official to spoke to U.S. reporters.
Relatives of the victim say they have turned over evidence — "a series of exchanges" between husband and wife — to the Mexican authorities that will result in justice for their murdered sister/daughter.
Mexican officials did not release the contents of the documents due to the ongoing status of the investigation.
However, Beresford-Redman's sister, Jeane Burgos, told reporters she was "happy with the work authorities are doing to get justice for my sister."
Monica Beresford-Redman's body remains in Mexico while experts run tests to determine or rule out a connection to the Los Angeles producer. Rodolfo Garcia Pliego, the assistant attorney general of the Caribbean coast state of Quintana Roo, requested the body be released to the relatives, noting that the husband has not made any such request.
While Beresford-Redman has not denied or confirmed reports he was involved in a long-term affair, the victim's sisters say the Mexico trip was a last attempt to save a crumbling marriage.
A memorial fund for Monica Burgos Beresford-Redman has been set up online and can be found at: www.monicaburgosmemorialfund.com.

Summit of mental health experts recommends reforms after cluster of suicides by Chicago cops
By Madeline Buckley

The Chicago Police Department must make fundamental changes in the way it cares for the mental health of its officers, particularly as it faces a recent cluster of suicides, and needs to go beyond what is required by a pending federal court order.
That was one of the conclusions from mental health experts gathered in Chicago recently for a wellness summit. While the court order is a good first step, the department should take deeper steps to come up with a "robust wellness program," according to the head of the National Alliance on Mental Illness in Chicago.
"Systemic changes need to be made to continue creating what seems to be a strategy for a robust wellness program," said Executive Director Alexa James. "There obviously needs to be more foundational changes as well to accommodate the needs of officers."
James and others suggested a list of actions during the two-day summit that drew city and department leaders along with more than 50 experts in the mental health field. But it was unclear if and when the department will follow them.
While Chicago police Superintendent Eddie Johnson praised the work of the summit, he did not commit to any specific recommendation. Nor did Mayor Lori Lightfoot.
"We will continue to explore all options to ensure our first responders have access to the wellness support and resources they need and deserve," her office said in a statement, which noted that the new mayor "has been advocating for a total revamp of the inadequate officer wellness services provided today."
Sponsors of the summit say they plan to circle back with Chicago police officials in a month or so. The summit comes at a critical time for the issue of mental health among police officers.
At least seven Chicago cops have committed suicide in the last 12 months. And the New York Police Department just experienced four suicides in three weeks, spurring the department to seek "psychological autopsies" to analyze the officers' actions.
The Chicago Police Department has already met a key requirement in the court order: It recently hired seven more clinicians to offer counseling for the more than 13,000 department employees, upping the total number to 12.
That brings the department in compliance with one of the mandates in the federal order, issued after the U.S. Department of Justice issued a scathing report in early 2017 during the fallout from the fatal police shooting of Laquan McDonald. Among the findings were that its mental health clinicians were overburdened.
The mental health experts who attended the summit say they hoped to provide a road map for further reform. Among their recommendations:
• Have the department's employee assistance program evaluated and accredited by an independent body, such as the American Psychological Association.
• Train supervisors to speak to officers about wellness and suicide, and evaluate the wellness of officers in their command.
• Assign clinicians to drop in during all shifts at district stations to build camaraderie and normalize the seeking of help.
• Require more regular check-ins after police shootings, such as when body camera footage is released to the public weeks later.
On the first day of the summit, according to attendees, about 75 officers listened as a neuroscientist explained how trauma impacts the brain. A yoga instructor described meditation and deep-breathing techniques, giving the officers tools to bring down their heart rate. Experts addressed suicide prevention.
"The goal is to eliminate suicide throughout the department," Johnson told the crowd in opening remarks. "This is a lofty goal but I believe it's worth striving for."
On the second day, officers and experts broke out into small groups to come up with specific suggestions and then presented them to Johnson and Lightfoot.
"The department had a really hard year last year ... and mental health is a huge priority in the department," said Zoe Russek, a research manager at University of Chicago Crime Lab, which organized the summit to review best practices around the country.
'Good timing'
When Sandy Jo MacArthur was an assistant chief at the Los Angeles Police Department, she and others worked with the police union to add more wellness checks following a police shooting.

Previously, when an officer was involved in a shooting, he or she had to see a psychologist within 72 hours. Most of the time, the psychologist would approve the officer's return to work, MacArthur said.
But the stress would often hit the officers well after the shooting.
So the department required wellness checks several times in the year following a shooting. In particular, MacArthur said the department requires a wellness check around the time body camera footage of the shooting is released to the public, and again when authorities make a determination about whether the shooting was justified.
"(Officers) who have gone through the process say it's good timing," MacArthur said.
That was among recommendations suggested by MacArthur, who is retired, and other LAPD officials who attended and spoke at the conference about the department's work to revamp its wellness programs.

MacArthur said experts also recommended that the Chicago department's clinicians be assigned to districts with the goal of regularly dropping in to meet officers and build a rapport.
"Having someone pop in once a week normalizes it," MacArthur said. "There's none of the weirdness about it."
Such changes are crucial to implement now that the department has added more clinicians, the experts said.
James, who spoke at the summit about suicide prevention, said the department also should make sure its insurance plan has adequate mental health coverage for people who want to seek help outside of the department, and should train supervisors to have conversations with officers about suicide and assess the wellness of their subordinates.
One recommendation of "particular interest" was having the department's mental health program evaluated by an independent body, according to Howard Ludwig, a spokesman with the Chicago Police Department.
The idea would be for an organization like the American Psychological Association to come in and give the department an idea of whereit is doing well and what areas need to improve, MacArthur said.
In the meantime, MacArthur is working with the University of Chicago Crime Lab to pull together all the recommendations and create a "road map" that will help the department figure out how to implement the recommendations.
They plan to present it to Chicago police officials in four to six weeks, MacArthur said. "The thought process is, how do we create a resilient organization?"

The Waterways have many people involved in recovery of our waterways. One, the Waterways Recovery Group, a volunteer group, help other groups with special recovery camps, is now trying to get back what was lost due to canals being abandoned and closed during the 1950, 60's and 70's. Britain has a very unique canal system, unlike any others in the world. In affect these canals and inland waterways are a huge linear national park or international leisure park, also a vital wildlife sanctuary, and more important a industrial heritage site and an environmentally friendly transport system all rolled into one. What a real gift from our ancestors.
Despite this there are still over 2500 miles of derelict waterways in Britain, which can be recovered over a period of time, with lots of hard work and cash.
WRG is in fact an arm of the IWA, but do the muscle work of recovery.
We will be featuring some ongoing canal recovery projects and hope you will enjoy reading about and even joining in, with water ways being reopened.
The classic re opening is the Drotwich canal which now fully open from the Birmingham and Worcester canal through to the River Seven. The canal passes right through the town of Droitwich after which it was named. I have traveled this canal and it is really worth the trip.
Our first featured recovery is on the BCN (Birmingham Canal Network) or as it also called (Birmingham Canal Navigation).
This is the recovery of the partial existing link of the Litchfield and Hatherton canals. See the website at http://www.lhcrt.org.uk/ the website has full information on these two canal restorations. However the canal which i think will be completed first is the Litchfield.
This canal which has old sections still in water will link the Coventry Canal at Huddlesford junction with the Wyrley and Essington Canal at Ogley Junction allowing users direct access to the northern reaches of the BCN. This route has the full go ahead and even has a major bridges and aqueducts already in place ready to go. This project has David Suchet as an active member and waterways supporter. Please visit their website, for lots more information.
The second featured recovery is also on the BCN (Birmingham Canal Network) or as it also called (Birmingham Canal Navigation).
This is in the terms of things is still a very new recovery project. This was started in 2011. However a lot of research and planning has been done to see if this project is a viable and practical enterprise.
Today the canal is in water as far as the BW workshops, (where our lock gates are manufactured for replacement of old ones). However it is filled in beyond that location. As far as the Bradley Locks branch is concerned much of this line was sadly filled in. The section from A4098 Great Bridge Road (Bradley Bridge) to the Walsall Canal has remained in water, however the locks are still essentially intact, although buried. Restoration is not inconceivable and would no doubt improve boating options in this area. There is now a movement within the IWA to re water the rest of this canal to its former glory.
There is a lot of information about this project on this link which is a downloadable PDF file. (Copyright IWA). Please save it to you hard drive and take a look. David Pearson of the IWA BCN branch is the man to talk to if you want to be involved in this worth while project.
The Grantham canal used to link the river Trent near to the Nottingham Forest Football ground with Grantham. Designed mainly for coal transportation, it also soon began to take other cargos, including waste effluent from Nottingham as at the time the canal was built, had no sewage disposal.
The project mainly driven by businessmen and the Duke of Devonshire of Belvoir Castle, to buy and sell coal and other goods, was started in 1793 and finished fours later when it was opened in 1797. The canal was surveyed and built by William Jessop. The canal being a contour canal, travels through some wonderful English country side if which about 20 miles has no locks.
Today the Grantham canal society is in the process of opening up the canal, having started rewatering sections of the canal and restoring locks by completely rebuilding them. It is hoped to restore the complete length from the Trent to Grantham. However the Trent link will not be its orginal route, but lower down stream near to Holme Pierrepont. I suggest you click the link above to find out more about this worth while project.

The music video for Cinema Hearts' song "Daydreaming."
This summer, my band Cinema Hearts took a road trip to go camping in the mountains and play music for folks outside of our hometown. It was our band's first small weekend tour (a friend of Erich's scoffed at the idea that I called this getaway a "tour," arguing that a "real band tour" would include more nights sleeping on strangers' floors and more concert dates in far-off cities. But for a girl who has never left home, a weekend in the Blue Ridge Mountains is a thrilling and nerve-racking adventure).
When I drive down Route 81, I am always in awe of the vast farmland, the tacky billboards advertising roadside attractions, and the grand mountains looming beyond the skyline. We stopped in the small town of Harrisonburg, Virginia, and I thought of how my closest friends and strongest crushes moved there and attended school at the town's big spirited university, while I remained at the local commuter college and lived at home. I wrote "Daydreaming" during a 3-hour lecture class I had on Fridays. I was daydreaming about a boy I liked who went to school in Harrisonburg, and the possibility that we could date in the summertime when he returned (he never called me again).
Driving in Southern Virginia fills me with opposing feelings: the quirky landmarks excite me and the quaint towns bore me; visiting friends with their laid-back Southern habits makes me envious of their routines yet their lifestyles convince me that I truly belong with the rushing hubbub of the North. I often wonder what my life would have been like had I gone to school in Harrisonburg too, and then I realize that this band, my favorite thing, never would have happened.
I hope you enjoy seeing the rolling roads and southern scenery in Cinema Hearts' new video for "Daydreaming."
