Talk about procrastination. Or let's just say we were hard at work on our #summerbucketlist. After a December 2013 start date, my 11 year-old daughter's Parisian-themed room is finally complete. Until two days before the start of school, we hadn't revisited the room since April 16, 2014 (see the post on walls 1 and 2 here). Now, we're calling it fini (finished in French).
I enlisted my sister-in-law to help with the wall mural. I pulled out photos, scrapbooks and postcards from my visits to Paris for inspiration (see our Paris Pinterest board). For more inspiration, Ava referenced her Monster High Doll packaging most recently from Scaris (Monster High's version of Paris).
Ava had definite ideas about the wall and used her sketchbook to plot it out. Notable items – a wrought iron fence in the foreground, a cafe table and pastries at Cafe de' Flore, the Eiffel Tower, Sacre Coure, a bridge on the Seine, Scaris-inspired city scenes and St. Germain des Pres. In front of Cafe de' Flore, we placed an actual French Vintage Cafe Table ($174 on EBay).
We sketched in pencil, then we went over it in black paint. We used a smaller point Sharpie for the Scaris fine detail. Then came the color accents. I used a watercolor technique by placing a small amount of color on the wall and taking a damp cloth and streaking or in the case of the clouds, swirling it, to diffuse the color.
Since the mural was definitely proving to be ongoing thing, we gave it a temporary rest and shifted our focus to Wall 4. I had this idea for a very long bench with cubbies for storage and a large whiteboard framed by curtains. For starters, we adhered two large white boards (2'x4′ each) next to each other on the wall. We used teal blinged out ribbon from Michael's to frame the whiteboard. To complete the reading nook, we found one zebra print curtain and two tiered white ruffle curtains for a steal at Bed Bath & Beyond. The zebra print easily draped above the nook as a canopy over three dowel rods.
I'm not one for dyeing, but the white curtains would not suffice. They called out for teal. After a lot of research and grave warnings about chemical dyeing processes, I still decided to go for it. I found a large pot for $35 at Northern Brewery and Supplies and ordered the dye (it is VERY special because it's a certain type that works on 100% polyester (note – blends are much easier to find generic dyes for)). If I had a top loading washer, it would have been an easier process too. I had to dye each curtain separately, so it turns out one curtain is a bit lighter than the other, but they are spaced far enough apart so it's not obvious. Overall I am thrilled that it even took and that it was so easy.
Now for the bench. I referenced two bloggers DIY bench for inspiration and the how-to (See: CraftThriftWed and Mommy Vignettes). We purchased the white 5-opening Ikea Expedit bench for $70 (which has since been discontinued (since Feb 2014)) and 2 black wicker baskets. Ava and I assembled the bench together, then I enlisted my parents to help with the bench cushion project. My dad had extra chipboard on hand and arrived with it precut to the exact dimensions.
The search for foam was not as easy. We ended up purchasing a custom cut four-inch high piece of foam from A-1 Foam and Upholstery at a discount because it was glued from scraps rather than a whole. It was $55 and I couldn't tell the difference. My mom helped us sort through the limitless options at JoAnn Fabrics to land on the navy, teal and white fleur-de-lis patterned fabric. We stretched our $20 roll of quilt batting around the chipboard and foam and stapled it in place. Then we did the same with the fabric, pulling it as tight as possible. …and Fini!
The never-ending DIY project: my 10 year-old daughter's room. The discussion began in December 2012. At that time we could not reach a compromise on many important details, so we abandoned the project until a later date. See the blog post here. Then her younger brother got a room redo in June 2013. Finally, in November 2013, we were ready to take another look at it. This time around, Ava and I were on the same page pantone-wise and total project-wise.
The inspiration occurred on a stroll through PBTeen where the Lola Paisley pattern in purple was on sale. I bought the sheets, a sham and a Paris embroidered pillow. Then it was time for paint selection. We took the sham to Home Depot and matched the colors for the wainscotting (dark purple, Behr, Crowning), the chair rail (teal, Glidden GLN6013, Peacock) and main walls (light purple; Behr, Winter Amethyst). Three walls would share the same pattern and on the fourth wall that's visible directly across from the door, we opted to do a Parisian mural – Ode to the Eiffel. That wall would be creme.
Even with the excitement of a fresh coat of paint, painting over the hot pink, baby pink and light green watermelon scheme of my daughter's youth brought on waves of nostalgia. Off came the wooden birds and followers that adorned the walls. The sweet baby pink eyelet curtains too. With my Dad and I on paint detail, we knocked it out pretty quickly all over the course of Christmas. I painted three sets of wall shelves from hot pink to dark purple and name letters from baby pink to teal. My daughter and son painted all of the other loose ends they could from the hook rack, to mirror trim to a tissue box.
Then it was time to design each wall and its details. The longest walls of the room on opposing sides would be easiest. For Wall 1, we hung two purple shelves, high and centered; a grouping of three Pottery Barn picture frames (reused from previous room decor); and an IKEA 5-hook set (not shown here). The creme frames with openings for 4×6's for 9, 3 and 1 photo got photo refreshes in black and white. Photos from her recent tenth birthday and family photos from 2013 replaced the professional pictures of her from age four.
The matting for the frames got a paint-over from pink to teal and dark purple. I was shocked that this actually worked and paint didn't saturate the cardboard-based matting too much. We found a wrought-iron Eiffel Tower candle stand at Bed, Bath and Beyond for her dresser and I used material from the bench project (more details in the Wall 3 blog post) to recover the once hot pink chair cushion. I arranged the decor for shelving and the dresser and desk tops. Ava continues to tweak it to her liking. I'm calling it done.
We move on to Wall 2. This wall has two windows so the first task is finding curtains to replace the pink eyelet ones. At BBB, we find four deep purple curtains with a subtle pattern of polka-dot for $15 each (80% off). Her twin bed with a tall headboard fit nicely between the windows. I hung the now purple shelf high on the wall above the bed and uncovered three white wicker baskets from my closet with lavender gingham liners to place on the shelf.
Below the shelf, we know we want to hang the three Christopher Straub fashion sketches I bought Ava for her birthday last year. We headed back to Papyrus where I purchased them originally and pick up three frames – two black and one teal. We positioned these below the long shelf and above the headboard. We consider this wall done for now and make a note to eventually find a night stand. For the time being, she'll use her clip-on lamp for reading in bed.
Next up will be Wall 3, the bench, canopy and white board wall; followed by Wall 4: the Paris mural finale. We've been working on this wall on occasional Sundays since December! It will have an end point soon though, if I have any say in the matter. Stay tuned….

Did someone say Pot of Gold? That's what my 8 year-old son, Calvin, heard. We might not be more than 15% Irish, but for a chance at this said gold carried by a leprechaun, we attempted to make a trap to ensnare one of these little mischievous devils.
First, we baked a 6-layer Rainbow Cake. Inspired by Martha Stewart, but short-cutted like crazy thanks to Betty Crocker Vanilla Super Moist Cake Mix and Betty Crocker Rich & Creamy Cream Cheese Frosting. One box mix divided into three equal parts made three 9 inch round cakes. The element of fun here was food coloring. My 10 year-old, Ava, was in charge of the color mixology and first up was purple, blue and green (see the video here (originally on Vine @jengilhoi)). Then we washed the cake pans, mixed again, divided and baked round two for yellow, orange and red layers. I usually spend a decent amount of time frosting the sides, but we had a different vision for this tower of cakes: high and messy. We skipped frosting the sides. To get cakes to layer correctly, I cut off the slightly rounded cake tops.
Second, we made white chocolate covered pretzel ladders using pretzel rods for the sides and thin pretzels for the ladder rungs. Super messy, but fun and kid-friendly. With one package of microwave-melted Candiquik white chocolate in a tray, Ava coated the pretzels, assembled them and hung them out to dry on parchment paper. These ladders would be the only way in which a 2-3 inch full-grown Leprechaun could access the cake.
Third, we broke into teams to design the traps using our cake bait. Neither kid wanted to be with me, rather they wanted to team with their Dad, the engineer. My feelings weren't too hurt. He is highly experienced in shenanigans from his college days and has skill in weighted pulley systems and the like. To Ava's dismay, we were once again a team. The criterion was that the leprechaun had to trigger something that set the course for events that would eventually end in his entrapment.
Calvin and Dad's trap was indeed elaborate and weighted. One sliding trophy on dental floss nearly took Calvin out in the testing process. I heard him cry out in pain. When their plan was presented, it include a wire trip that pulled a coat rack which then released a trophy that slid down the floss, knocked over a book that fell and slammed the trap shut. Ava was blown away.
Then it was our turn. We got points for style. Ours included a welcome sign, enticing Monster High ghouls, all sorts of mischievous items like tacks, granulated sugar, glue and ladders to climb up the multi-level tower. Once the top of the tower was reached, the leprechaun was to dismount the pretzel swing and land in a swampy sea of hot, green bubbles and drown. See the video overview here.
Neither trap caught a leprechaun. The leprechaun maneuvered through Ava and Mom's trap, taking out the MonsterHigh Ghouls with tacks and out swimming Frogger to escape. Fooled again (see: Unlucky Strikes March 2011 blog post)! And now we have a ton of cake to eat too. Maybe next year we'll get the gold!

Sport for the mind. This is exactly what the First Lego League (FLL) delivers on through an international robotics program that includes more than 200,000 kids in 63 countries. In Minnesota, High Tech Kids, a Minnesota organization dedicated to delivering fun, hands-on science, engineering and technology programs and events that inspire kids in their formative years, runs the FLL program locally as MN FLL. During the 2013-14 season 562 teams (comprised of 4-9 graders) competed in MN FLL, culminating on February 8 at Washington Magnet School in St. Paul where 66 of these teams had the opportunity to compete at the state championship in high-pressure, spirited competition.
The lego, math, engineering and science culture is alive and growing. And now girls are participating more in science and math oriented programs too. At two recent MN FLL competitions, it was impressive to see the number of kids involved and the hours of effort into this program by volunteers, coaches, teachers and participants alike. It was not by my doing that my 10 year-old daughter, Ava, became involved in GEMS (Girls in Engineering, Math and Science), a free program for students offered at her school. She was the instigator. After coming home totally jazzed about GEMS on day two of fifth grade, we agreed to let that be her new "sport" for the year.
I have to admit, I was a bit shocked. She struggled with math in third grade. Then something clicked in fourth grade. I attribute that to the fourth-grade teachers' response to newfound research citing the importance of word problems in math and proactively implementing new daily word problems into the math curriculum at Hale school. It provided a great foundation for the real-world scenarios and problems they would solve through participation in programs like MN FLL.
The GEMS program at Field Middle School is run by their science teacher, Mary Hill, who has 30 years in the program and received the highest honor from MN FLL – Coach of the Year. Some schools' science programs are run by volunteers and the level of involvement varies. Field GEMS meet for two hours every week throughout the course of the school year. Parents from other schools cited a schedule of once or twice a month over a more limited time during the school year.
Ava participated in the Hale Science Fair before (grades 2-4), which was individual and project based for one event. This program differed in its team structure (six girls) and problem to solve (each team solved for the same set of challenges). In GEMS, the teams consist of 5, 6 and 7th grade girls so there's an element of teaching within the team itself. And because the playing field is level, every team can learn from other teams' solutions.
It took me awhile to fully understand the structure of GEMS and their primary focus — preparing for the annual MN FLL competition. Information was not forthcoming from my daughter. My first immersion was the January 18th MN FLL round one competition. It ran from 7:30a.m. until 6:00p.m. I asked a ton of questions and finally formed an understanding of the program. In a nutshell, there is a robotic portion similar for all teams and an in-depth research project on a natural disaster and solutions that are each team's own choice.
The challenge is set up so that each team has the same size 93″ x 45″ board with a 3.5″ high border and graphic overlay that represents the year's theme of choice: Nature's Fury. (see the full challenge details here). The context of programming the robots made of Legos involves solving real world challenges in a natural disaster, in this year's case, a tsunami. The board involves simulated runways, roadways, roadblocks, buildings and people and animals. The task at hand is to program your robot, always released from the same corner starting point, to solve a series of challenges. Robotic arms trigger the launch of a cargo plane, a sweeping save of animals in a tree, the lifting of a house from the flood area, and the release of goods into areas where people need immediate aid.
Teams could choose their own natural disaster to investigate, considering the effects of the natural disaster on individuals and property. They were required to focus their research by identifying a challenge caused by the storm and create an innovative solution that could prevent or solve that problem. Ava's team, We Will Rock You, chose landslides and how in the event of a landslide people could be notified, be prepared with a survival backpack and continually directed to safety via GPS throughout the course of the landslide.
The research component included online research which for Ava's team meant viewing websites like redcross.com and survivalkitsonline.com for the survival backpack, interviews with local experts working in the field and dealing daily with public safety and survival during natural disasters, and research of GPS technology. The We Will Rock You team selected landslides because even though they're most common in California and Colorado, they can happen in any state as in the case of last year's landslide tragedy in Minnesota.
Seventy three teams competed in the day-long MN FLL regional competition at Anishinabe Academy on January 18 and three finalists advanced to the February 8 state tournament including Ava's team which also won a design award (see the results here). Several similar competitions took place all around the state from late 2013 through early 2014 to narrow in to the 66 teams that would compete at state.
The day consisted of robotic challenges in 2:30 minute timeframes, eight teams per time. The room filled with nervous energy as two from each team went forward each time to live program and active the sequences of the challenge. The research portions were limited to five minutes where teams presented their projects, answered questions from the judges about the project and CORE values. These values enforce friendly competition and mutual gain are not separate goals and that helping each other is the foundation of teamwork.
She still seems jazzed about the program. And next year, she'll have some younger teammates to mentor. I believe this is such an important program that sets girls up for success in science and math related fields. It's not too young, in fact middle school is a critical time to foster this growth. We can all take cues from young people who serve as great role models — like the 10 year-old eco-blogger Hannah Alper (check out her Dec 5, 2013 TED Talk). I am so excited that Ava discovered this extra-curricular activity and sport for the mind that will fuel her passions about her ideas to change the world for the better. Rock on girls!


Are Today's Professional Athletes Good Role Models?
Role model, this phrase forms an interesting play on words. Although it has come to have a variety of connotations, from a source of inspiration to a social icon, the word quite literally means a model for a role, a person one can strive to emulate. The notion of role model is unequivocally associated with the youth. It is the young, with the unlimited possibility of the future before them, who are influenced by the people the aspire to emulate. This is why the question of role models become important….

are models of self-confidence in deepening our understanding of sporting performance? Confidence has been outlined as an important and essential mental skill in sporting performance by both athletes and coaches according to Vealey and Chase, 2008. There is a general consensus of support by the literature for a positive relationship between confidence and performance (Moritz, Feltz, Fahrbach, & Mack, 2000 cited by Machida, Ward and Vealey, 2012). In developing an understanding of these models of confidence….


Many smaller marshes or pools remain all year round. These habitats attract species of otter including the North American otter and the Giant Brazilian Otter.
In Africa, these pools are often frequented by hippopotami as well as used as watering holes for a variety of animals and birds including lions and wildebeest. They are often vital to humans, providing water for cattle. A number of species of frog also breed in these pools and marshes, including the North American Bullfrog and the Green Toad. They commonly attract wading birds and waterfowl, including for breeding. Many of these birds are migratory, seeking out specific pools or marshes each year and traveling considerable distances.
These ponds and marshes may also be stocked with smaller freshwater fish, which become food for the otters and wading birds. They are also home to large quantities of insects and invertebrates, and are common breeding grounds for dragonflies and mosquitoes.

I have been having an absolute blast for the past hour just drifting around this board, getting a feel for what all of you are like and have decided that it would only be fair, after cruising through so many personal stories, to introduce myself � try to contain your excitement.
My name is Alex, I�m 26 years old, and I live in Columbus, Ohio. Over the course of the past year I have managed to acquire a degree in business management and lose a pseudo-husband in a pseudo-divorce (it�s a long story and I don�t want anyone to have to suffer through it unless requested). In a spastic fit of anxiety and depression, I wandered around a local bookstore and picked up a self-help tome and, for reasons that elude me to this day, Practical Demonkeeping. The former hasn�t done me a lick of good thus far, but the latter has saved my sense of humor, if not my life. I have followed P.D. with Lamb and am now a full-blown Christopher Moore junkie. Next will be Fluke with a The Stupidest Angel chaser...and then�sorry, I�ll stop title-dropping.
Glad you decided to make that fateful step and join us. Your life will never be the same, posting naked at work does that to a person (again, see rules).
Hiya, Alex. Welcome to the madness that is the CM BBS.
Almost had a heart attack with that subject line. I was sure it was my ex, messing with my mind.
Welcome to the Boardello. It sounds like you'll fit in just fine. Go ahead, make a nuisance of yourself. Nobody else is going to do it for you.
Wait a minute, you're my ex? Huh. Don't take this the wrong way Alex, but I don't remember you. Was I drunk? 'cause that's happened before.
Welcome aboard. Keep your hands inside the windows, some of these savages bite!
Did you bring any mayo?
I guess this means I have to be NICE now.
Yeah, right. One word of advice, X: duck!
And pay no heed to the savages. They may be poorly behaved, but deep down inside they are a decent lot. They're just.... special.
From that Canadian guy:And pay no heed to the savages. They may be poorly behaved, but deep down inside they are a decent lot. They're just.... special.
Never, ever, have I claimed to not be savage, special, or poorly behaved. I just don't feel the need to warn people about myself. I was once told that I'm a good monkey, and I stand by that dammit. But wasn't there someone else here that was once referred to as some sort of HARPY???
And I scoff at your accusations of Canadianism. I might live across the street from Canadia, but I'm no maple syrup sucking, toque (I looked the spelling up) wearing, flannel clad, eh? saying Canadite! I don't know what you're talkin' aboot!

Андреј Илић (Београд, 3. априла 2000) српски је фудбалер који тренутно наступа за РФС.

Каријера

Напредак Крушевац
Илић је од своје осме године био полазник фудбалске школе београдског Партизана, у ком је прошао све млађе категорије. Он је, потом, 2015. године, уступљен филијали Телеоптику, где је наступао за кадетску селекцију до краја такмичарске 2015/16. сезоне. Првог дана септембра 2017. године, Илић је заједно са вршњацима Јованом Кокиром и Светозаром Марковићем потписао свој први професионални уговор са Партизаном. Годину дана касније напустио је клуб и прешао у крушевачки Напредак, са којим је потписао трогодишњи уговор.

После уводна два месеца под уговором са Напретком, Илић је за тај тим дебитовао против свог бившег клуба, Партизана, у 13. колу Суперлиге Србије за такмичарску 2018/19. Тада је у игру ушао пред крај сусрета, завршеног резултатом 1 : 1, уместо јединог стрелца за Напредак, Алексе Вукановића. Након тога је одиграо још по неколико минута против лучанске Младости, као и на гостовању Земуну. У стартној постави своје екипе по први пут се нашао на затварању јесењег дела првенства, када је учествовао у акцији код јединог гола своје екипе у поразу од нишког Радничког. Такође, асистирао је Игору Ивановићу, у поразу од Чукаричког резултатом 2 : 1, у 25. колу Суперлиге. До краја шампионата, Илић је постигао два поготка. Био је стрелац у победи од 5 : 0 над новосадском Војводином у 2. колу доигравања, те у 35. колу првенства против Партизана. Услед повреде на тој утакмици, игру је напустио у 35. минуту и у преостала два кола није био у саставу Напретка. Против Партизана је, претходно, наступио и у четвртини финала Купа Србије, када је Напредак елиминисан резултатом 4 : 0. Током такмичарске 2019/20. Илић је најчешће улазио у игру са клупе за резервне фудбалере, док је неке утакмице пропустио због повреде. Свој једини погодак у сезони постигао је против Јавора у 6. колу, док је читав сусрет одиграо још против Црвене звезде у 26. колу. Такође, забележио је и један сусрет у Купу Србије, када је Напредак елиминисан од екипе ТСЦ Бачке Тополе у шеснаестини финала тог такмичења, после извођења једанаестераца. Током две сезоне у екипи Напретка, Илић је одиграо 31 такмичарски сусрет и постигао укупно три поготка, уз две асистенције. Клуб је напустио лета 2020. године као слободан играч.

Јавор Ивањица
Пред крај летњег прелазног рока 2020. године, Илић је првог дана октобра представљен као појачање ивањичког Јавора. Са клубом је потписао уговор у трајању од три и по године. Потписом за клуб, стекао је право наступа као један од бонус играча у постави, док је у економату задужио дрес са бројем 20. По окончању репрезентативне паузе у октобру, Илић је за клуб дебитовао на сусрету 11. кола Суперлиге Србије против Металца из Горњег Милановца. Тада је на терену провео 69 минута, после чега га је заменио Ибрахим Танко. Неколико дана касније наступио је и у шеснаестини финала Купа Србије, када је Јавор елиминисао Раднички из Крагујевца и пласирао се у следећу фазу такмичења. Свој први погодак за Јавор, Илић је постигао 10. новембра 2020. у поразу од суботичког Спартака на домаћем терену, док је десет дана касније стрелац био и против Пролетера у Новом Саду. По трећи пут је погодио за Јавор на сусрету са Вождовцем у претпоследњем колу првог дела сезоне. На отварању другог дела сезоне, Илић је био асистент код другог гола Луке Луковића у победи од 4 : 1 над саставом лучанске Младости. У 23. колу, Илић је био стрелац јединог поготка за минималну победу над Новим Пазаром. Или је такође погодио и у 27. колу, доневши свом клубу изједначење против Рада, након центаршута Милорада Балабановића. Одмах затим, у наредном колу, Илић је погодио на сусрету са Златибором на Градском стадиону у Ужицу, а учествовао је и у акцији приликом које је Лука Луковић поставио коначних 0 : 2. У завршници сезоне, Илић је погодио на три узастопна сусрета од 33. до 35. кола, са Мачвом, Спартаком, односно Пролетером. Након четвртог жутог картона који је добио у претпоследњем колу против Чукаричког, онемогућен је да наступи на гостовању Вождовцу на затварању сезоне. Ремијем без погодака на крову Тржног центра, Јавор је испао из такмичења. Илић је за Јавор у лигашком делу сезоне постигао 9 погодака, па ју је окончао на другом месту клупске листе стрелаца, иза Луке Луковића са 16 голова. Илић је и након испадања у нижи степен такмичења остао у Јавору, уз договор са челницима клуба да започне нову сезону у Првој лиги Србије.

РФС
Почетком септембра 2021. године, Илић је потписао трогодишњи уговор са летонским клубом РФС-ом, а на званичном веб-сајту том приликом је назначено да је приступио као слободан играч. Илић је означен као замена за Дарка Лемајића, такође српског нападача, који је нешто раније напустио РФС. Дебитовао је поготком против Риге и са својом екипом обезбедио пласман у финале купа. Три дана касније наступио је и у лиги, против екипе Лијепаје. Први погодак у летонском шампионату постигао је у ремију са Спартаксом из Јурмале 16. октобра 2021, док је неколико дана касније био стрелац и асистент у победи над екипом Мете. Победом над Лијепајом у финалној утакмици, Илић је са РФС-ом освојио летонски куп. Сусрет 7. кола, када је РФС гостовао Даугавпилсу, завршен је резултатом 0 : 3. Илић је тада био асистент код једног од погодака. На гостовању истом тиму у 28. колу учествовао је код оба поготка, као стрелац и асистент. Том победом је РФС освојио титулу, односно дуплу круну.

У другом колу наредне сезоне, Илић је био двоструки стрелац у победи од 4 : 0 над екипом Даугавпилса.

Репрезентација
Селектор младе репрезентације Србије, Звонко Живковић, уврстио је Илића крајем маја 2021. на списак играча за пријатељске утакмице наредног месеца. На припремној утакмици са сениорским саставом, Илић је постигао један од два поготка своје екипе у поразу од 4 : 2. Дебитовао је у ремију без погодака са одговарајућом екипом Русије, 6. јуна исте године. Два дана касније наступио је и на сусрету са олимпијском репрезентацијом Бразила. У квалификацијама за Европско првенство дебитовао је против Јерменије 7. октобра 2021. Илићево име није било на списку који је вршилац дужности селектора младе репрезентације, Александар Рогић, објавио за сусрете у новембру 2021. са екипама Фарских Острва и Украјине. Наступио је и на последње две утакмице у квалификационом циклусу, против Француске и Фарских Острва, током јуна 2022.

Moving Experiences
What's Afoot?

Who Should Hear Our Stories—A Cry for an Answer
We all know the power of stories to touch and heal hearts and to connect communities. In today's political climate, story is needed more than ever. Although we have all most likely experienced being moved by a story, a performance that touched us deeply, it is most likely that our minds and hearts reflect those of the teller.
I've been thinking about this a lot. If we are truly interested in healing, in connecting, in finding common ground, how do we get those to the table, to hear the stories that reflect the wounds of the community? Conversely, are we just as interested in hearing their stories as a foundation on which to build a new bridge?
I throw this out to the storytelling community as a plea for a response on how we can make this happen. Thank you for listening.
Recently, I did a lecture on the storytelling process at a local university. Toward the end of the presentation, I focused more on presentation vs. story, and brought up the subject of distractions, both from the point of view of the teller as well as the audience. We discussed that from time to time, we may encounter an audience member that is talking, texting, or just plain disruptive (more likely in a middle or high school setting). I advised them, as I had been taught, to always look for the friendly face.
We also addressed the ways in which an audience member could be distracted by the teller. We discussed clothing, hair, fidgeting, and pacing. Then we got on the subject of the filler words, e.g., er, uh, and the one most used by today's youth….like.
When I got on this subject the instructor took a time out and said that we probably disagreed on the subject, and went on to say that she told her students that there is an appropriate time to use "like" as a filler word. I humbly disagreed and told the class that I often find myself counting the number of times a person uses the word, instead of listening to their content. I went on to add, that I felt that it tells me the performer is not prepared for their presentation or that they have not done the work to find the words they need to convey what they want to say. Thus, the hesitation and use of the filler words. I believe I spoke truthfully when I said that the storytelling community and the Toastmaster community would cringe at a performer using these filler words. I can tell you that there was a lot of conversation about this, most defending its use in a formal presentation.
So, for those who wish to omit the use of filler words from their narrative, I found a wonderful list on how to work toward that goal:
http://superheroyou.com/filler-words/
What I Learned from a Career in Sales
One of my earliest "real world" jobs was in sales at Jack Morton Productions in Washington, DC. At that time, the DC office was one of 6 in the country. Now Jack Morton Worldwide, it has grown to be an international firm with a global client list. Jack Morton himself was in his 80s when I worked there and came into the office from time to time, mainly to throw his pearls of wisdom onto the budding sales team. Although he was involved in some of the company management, it is his wisdom about sales that I believe was his greatest contribution. I remained in creative sales for over 15 years, and had a track record that I was quite proud of. But it was Jack who truly launched me with his wisdom when I was starting out. Here's some of his more memorable advice.
"The Little People Become Big People Someday"
In my sales career, I have seen this happen over and over again. How anxious I was initially to get to the decision-maker, with total disregard to the gatekeeper. What's more, I saw executive secretaries become VPs of Marketing. And let me tell you, once they become big people, they always remember how you treated them. So next time you come across somebody who can do nothing for you, think again. They may come back to haunt you. We all could stand to reach across the aisle of disparity, however that might be presented to you.
Jack told me to take my focus off selling and to think about helping AND asking for help. As Americans, in particular, asking for help often is perceived to be a sign of weakness. We rarely think of ourselves as a tribe that works together for the common good and common benefit. Yet, I learned from Jack, that when asked with a sincere heart, most people are flattered that you came to them. Does that not indicate that you think their experience of value? When I asked for help, it was always given. When I was asked to help, I was always flattered. Both are the beginning of a promising business relationship.
"I Don't Trust Somebody Who Doesn't Have Holes on the Soles of Their Feet"
At sales meetings, many a person was embarrassed when asked, in front of their peers, to take off their shoes. Jack wanted to know how much walking they had done. In today's world of social media, how often have we taken the time to sit down with somebody and get to know them personally. How often have we walked the streets, and beaten on the doors of opportunity? This is what Jack thought made a good salesperson. He almost chased us out of the offices, as he believed real sales were made face to face.
Upcoming Tours With Dream On and More
In mid-October, I will be leaving on a 4-week tour in China and S. Korea to perform in international/English immersion schools. I am thrilled to have been invited on this second tour which will take me primarily to Shanghai and the surrounding area, Suzhou, and Chengdu. Although I already have over 6 hours of material, I decided to further expand some of my offerings and learned about 10 new stories for ages 3-18.
After the tour, my husband will be joining me to spend time in Seoul, Jeju Island (Korea) and then to Guilin, China as well as Yunnan Province (which is supposed to be a not-to-be-missed).
In April, I will also be going on a 5-week Dream on Tour to Chile and Peru. Again, my husband will join me at the end of the tour to do the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu, and other attractions in Peru (Lake Titicaca, Colca Canyon, etc.).
See What's Afoot on my website for performances and workshops in Washington, DC, West Virgina, and Philadelphia upon my return in the early part of 2018. Hope to see you at some of them!
This summer I have been consumed by research and writing on three projects that I hope to bring to fruition in 2018. Unlike most of my work, these will be mostly void of my physical interpretation of stories and instead will be a straight on tete-a-tete.
1) Stories about Adventurous Women. As somebody who has always taken the path less travelled and who strives to overcome her fears to keep on the road, I have been interested in putting together a program about some unusual women whose adventurous spirit I admired and wanted to share. After perusing many books, I have narrowed down to three women. Sorry, no spoilers. You'll just have to invite me to perform them!
2) Fiction and Truth. I think there's always been that one story that has stuck with us over the years. I have one from high school and yet I don't believe it will resonate with today's audiences. So, I have tried to find other real life stories that might segue into my beloved fiction. I found it. It's going to be good. Sorry, I just can't share yet.
3) From the Cutting Floor. My father was a small town barber who collected characters. Over the years I have been writing about my recollections of sitting in the customer chair with my feet barely touching the ground while a comedy of errors was played out before me. It's almost ready!
Wishing you a wonderful Fall and artful 2018!

Help the International Medical Corps raise $1,000,000 in BTC and other cryptocurrency donations to help survivors of the explosion in Beirut, Lebanon.
Your Donations Helps Us:
Get Supplies on the Ground.
Mobilize Medical Units.
Get Support Staff to Hospitals.
About #BitcoinforBeirut
You may have seen the shocking images coming out of Lebanon: a massive explosion ripped through central Beirut, killing at least 100 people, injuring more than 4,000 others and leaving some 300,000 homeless. The explosion was so powerful that it registered as a 3.3 magnitude earthquake in Beirut, and was felt as far away as Cyprus. Hundreds of people remain missing, and search-and-rescue missions continue.
As a result of the blast, hospital emergency departments are overwhelmed and struggling to provide care, especially as power outages interrupt services. Our team reports that hospitals are asking nearby residents to bring in generators and spare solar- or battery-operated lights so that health workers can continue to treat patients. Further complicating response efforts, COVID-19 was already straining the health system—Lebanon has had more than 5,200 confirmed cases of COVID-19 since the outbreak began.
International Medical Corps has been on the ground in Lebanon since 2006, providing health services to Syrian refugees and vulnerable Lebanese communities. Most recently, we have been responding to COVID-19 across the 59 health facilities we support. Our nearly 300 team members are safe and accounted for – only four team members were injured in the blast and will recover. Our office sustained damage, but fortunately our warehouse containing medicines and supplies is whole and functioning.
We launched emergency services to support the response to the explosion and are coordinating closely with the government, Red Cross and other responders to quickly provide surge capacity to stretched hospitals and health facilities. Our teams are mobilizing urgently needed supplies and deploying staff from unaffected health facilities to hospitals caring for patients. We are also preparing to support mental health needs for those affected by this emergency.
You can follow our response here. Thank you for supporting International Medical Corps to help survivors get lifesaving care.

The Poetry of Hangzhou 2019-07-16
The picture sourced from Nytimes.com - Traditional pagodas and wooden sampan boats are common
sights along West Lake in Hangzhou, once a refuge for painters and poets.
HANGZHOU, April 8, 2011 (Nytimes) ON a misty afternoon in February, Lingyin Temple, a fourth-century Buddhist site that is one of China's most important sanctuaries, felt more like a carnival than a place of worship. In large multigenerational packs, festive families were gathered for the Lunar New Year holiday, tossing fistfuls of ceremonial paper money into huge open fire pits and waving incense sticks as they jostled through crowds on their way to visit the 80-foot-high Buddha that is the building's centerpiece. All the while they were downing fried tofu on sticks and corn on the cob and taking photos of everything on digital cameras. My family and I, possessing the only Western faces in the crowd, qualified as a photo coup — especially my towheaded toddler. "Look over here, foreign baby!" a young mother shouted as she held up her baby next to mine. The holiday period may officially last only a week, but the celebratory mood in Hangzhou seems to have permanently taken over this ever more vital city.
Hangzhou has always held a near mythical status in China, both for its beautiful lakeside location and as a place for meditative and spiritual retreat in times of trouble. During the culturally rich but politically disastrous Southern Song period of the 12th and 13th centuries, many of the country's most famous painters and poets lived here, seeking escape on the banks of the tranquil, willow-shaded West Lake while influential monks established temples with towering pagodas in the quiet hilltops nearby.
For generations, schoolchildren from all over China have grown up learning verses that were inspired by this place. One of the most famous poets, Bai Ju Yi, wrote, "Remembering the Fair South,/As always, it is Hangzhou I most recall:/ Amongst the mountain temples/ I search for the osmanthus petals/ From which the moon did fall."
And although it has never been a common destination for foreign tourists, it made a lasting impression on those who discovered it. As Marco Polo described it: "In heaven there is paradise/ On earth, Suzhou and Hangzhou."
Today, though Hangzhou is a teeming city of eight million, foreign tourists remain rare. In 2009 it attracted 63 million visitors — Venice, by comparison, draws about 20 million annually — but only 5 percent were from outside China.
That is primed to change, with a raft of new luxury hotels and a new high-speed train arriving from Shanghai's gleaming Hongqiao station. The train, which made its debut last October, means that the trip from Shanghai to Hangzhou is 40 minutes, compared with the three-hours-plus it used to take by car. And the voyage itself, which costs less than $20, exposes passengers to a fascinating montage of old and new China (new cookie-cutter cul-de-sacs emerge alongside derelict old structures that are quickly being razed), all at 250 miles an hour.
Despite its size, the city is laid out well for visitors, with the new and quickly growing part of Hangzhou separated from the more ancient sites by a large lake and a series of medieval canals and craggy hills in the distance. Yang Yi, a journalist for The City Express, took me on a tour of the historic He Fang Street with its bustling wood teahouses, noting his amazement and pride at the speed of development. "On the south edge of the city there used to be only acres and acres of peasant land on the opposite side of the river," he said. "Now I just see more and more buildings."
But even if Hangzhou's former status as a peaceful refuge from the rough and tumble world of politics and business may be mostly symbolic at this point, it still carries heavy spiritual weight and the burgeoning middle class is streaming in to see the temples, lake and the sheltered pagodas. To me, observing the first generation of domestic travelers enjoying their leisure time and taking in the nationally beloved sites was every bit as interesting as the sites themselves.
It is clear that tourism is booming and new attractions are being opened to complement the city's must-see staples: The city's bike paths (dotted with the bright red bicycles provided by the city for only 50 cents a day) are crowded with Chinese tourists from Shanghai, Tianjin and Beijing; beautiful old-style restaurants like Dragon Well Mansion (notable for its excellent local and organic ingredients) serve up dishes like sea cucumber and poached river fish to well-heeled Chinese tourists showing off newfound wealth; and new museums like Zhejiang Art Museum, which opened in 2009, mix contemporary work with traditional exhibits and calligraphy in a bid to attract a younger crowd.
Not surprisingly, luxury hotels have also arrived. The Shangri-la, Aman resorts, Banyan Tree and Four Seasons have all unveiled outposts in the last few years, and the Angsara plans to open a hotel this year. The new resorts, removed from the new part of the city, have all positioned themselves to be quiet enclaves in the hubbub: the Amanfayun resort has reinvented a former tea village near Lingyin Temple and turned it into a series of pared-down villas with a destination spa and dim sum restaurant, and the Banyan Tree sits within one of the country's most impressive wetland parks. The newest arrival, the Four Seasons, sits on a quiet bank of West Lake with over 10 acres of landscaped gardens and pavilion-like structures.
But even outside the hotels' grounds, it is still possible to find moments of quiet inspiration. From a simple jetty, an old Chinese boatman took us out on a sampan, one of the traditional wooden boats that is Hangzhou's equivalent of a gondola. The sound of paddling was the only thing we heard as we passed under stone-arch bridges and alongside banks of bamboo and willow trees. Skeleton-like branches peeked out of the mist; high up in the hills a lone pagoda kept watch over the lake; a fishing boat sat almost motionless in the water; a songbird rested in a willow tree. We passed secluded spots with names like Lotus on the Breeze at Crooked Courtyard, Viewing Fish at Flowers Harbor, Melting Snow at Broken Bridge and Listening to the Orioles in the Willows.
And then our lonely boat entered the main part of the lake. Pagoda-style ferries bobbed on the water, locals were taking in the sights of the smaller inner island of Three Moons Mirroring the Moon, where some set up impromptu picnics. Everyone, it seemed, wanted to be a part of Hangzhou's new poetry.

Seattle Jewish Day School Secures $3.5 Million Property
The new Maple Leaf property for the Menachem Mendel Seattle Cheder Day School.
by D. Lipson - Seattle, WA
(lubavitch.com) A Jewish day school near the University of Washington has left the Chabad center it has called home for the last 35 years, for a bigger and greener learning environment.
"We're going to move from having skinned knees to having grass stains," said Rabbi Yossi Charytan, head of the Menachem Mendel Seattle Cheder Day School.
MMSC frantically assembled more than $3 million in pledges and loans in less than two months. Board members raced to the finish line breathlessly on Monday, when they closed on the new Maple Leaf property that will allow them relocate from the grassless school grounds it has outgrown.
The independent school, which operated rent-free on "Frat Row" in Seattle's University District, was told in February that Chabad would lease its building the following school year to a Jewish fraternity.
"Sometimes something seemingly unfortunate has to happen to get a good thing finally to come," said Mihal Ehven, a parent with four children enrolled at MMSC.
Founded by Mrs. Chanie Levitin in 1974, the school, which offers a mix of Jewish and secular education for Jewish students of all denominations, searched the area for a new site.
"We were initially looking for buildings that were empty because of the recession, that we could move into rent free and be there while the developer waited to develop the property," said Tziviah Goldberg, an MMSC board member.
Then the school discovered a secluded 1.6 acre property with a 21,000-square-foot building surrounded by fir trees and a park just minutes from MMSC in Maple Leaf. But the land was already sold and in the process of being developed. Eventually, the space was relisted and MMSC made a $3.425 million bid, money it didn't have.
Securing the idyllic land required breakneck fundraising and a lot of prayer.
Goldberg spearheaded the initiative. She told the board "we have to write to the Rebbe that we're somehow going to find a way for this to happen – because we don't have any money set aside to do this."
At every turn they sent a letter to the Ohel, the resting place of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, asking for blessings that their efforts be successful.
During this period, Mark Goldberg, Tziviah's husband and a veteran real-estate developer/broker who, as it turns out, played a major role in helping the school acquire the building, introduced a business partner, John Mills, to the project. He agreed to lend the school $1.8 million.
The school also went to the Samis Foundation for money. The foundation provides grants to Jewish schools in Washington State, which is home to 40,000 Jews, according to the Jewish Genealogical Society of Washington State.
The Samis Foundation has helped fund MMSC for more than a decade, but its trustees wanted MMSC to collect pledges before they donated money for the new project.
MMSC quickly pulled together $613,000, "which in Judaism is very important because that's the 613 mitzvahs," said Goldberg. "That happened to be the number it came up to be, we didn't seek to do that – that's a good omen."
Impressed with the school's fundraising efforts, Samis said it would provide $1.3 million if the MMSC could raise its pledges to $1 million.
MMSC scrounged together the money and the Samis Foundation backed its word, all within a tight deadline set by the property owners.
"Even in these recessionary times we've found people to give money that we never even knew, or thought, or imagined would come forward," said Goldberg. "I think it is because they see we're determined and doing a good thing – we're supporting Jewish education."
Charytan uses the phrase "Hashgacha Pratis," meaning divine providence, to describe the chain of events that transpired, making it possible for them to meet unlikely deadlines and raise sizeable sums in the most difficult of economic times.
For all their achievements, no one at MMSC is kicking up their feet just yet. "We have to raise over $2M in the next 2 – 3 years to complete the renovation and endow the building," says Tziviah.
Because of renovations, the building will not be ready for the fall school year. A local unused public school will serve as a temporary facility for MMSC.
Ehven is thrilled about the switch. She said holding classes in the Chabad house was a "challenge" because of its cramped space and rowdy university neighbors.
The new building will house an early childhood Montessori style program, an elementary school, and a high school for girls.
Charytan looks forward to seeing MMSC grow; the new school can accommodate an additional 100 students.
"They are not just entering into a system; they're entering into something almost like a family," said Charytan. "And that has become meaningful for many of our parents."

Heirs to the Rebbe's Legacy
To anyone familiar with the Rebbe's teachings, the principles of positive psychology that are so popular today echo the Torah-based ideals that the Rebbe advanced: training our eyes, our thoughts, our speech, and our actions toward the positive. In his countless interactions—often with people who were philosophically or ideologically in disagreement with the Rebbe—we observed this principle at work.

Poway Rabbi Addresses UN Session on Anti-Semitism
Rabbi Yisroel Goldstein of Chabad of Poway addressed the UN General Assembly this morning during a special session on combating anti-Semitism. "Anti-Semitism is not a Jewish problem, this is a problem for the world," said the rabbi, his left hand still bandaged where his index finger was blown off in an anti-Semitic attack on his synagogue eight weeks ago. He discussed recognizing the value of every human life, using social media as a platform for love and flooding the world with practical good deeds.

Tennis Capital Gets New Center and Scores "Advantage Chabad"
It's a little over thirty years in the making, but Chabad of Wimbledon now has its very own center! Original concern: regulations in England specify that only properties designated with D1 certification are allowed to be used for non-residential use. After a year of exhaustive searching, the only D1 property they could find was rundown and significantly beyond their budget.

Last year the company I work for implemented a work from home system. In December I could finally also profit from this system and have been mainly working from home since. In the future, I will probably come upon the disadvantages of working from home but for now, I enjoy all the advantages.
Now that I work from home I do not have to spend 2 hours a day in overcrowded trains anymore. The line that I took was especially crowded and riding it was always a fight for survival so I am glad this time is over. I now also have 2 extra hours of free time every day that I don't have to spend on the train but can rather spend doing something useful or with an activity I enjoy.
These days are finally over.
When I took the train to work I would get up at 6:30 to be in the office at 9:00. The train line I took was delayed for about 10 minutes every day in the morning so I would have to take an early train to not be late. Now that I work from home I can sleep until 8:00 which works a lot better with my natural sleep rhythm because I can hardly fall asleep before 24:00. Usually, I would pile up a sleep deficit over the week and balance that out by taking long naps on the weekends but now I am not as tired anymore.
We have an open plan office with little space so the desks of my colleagues were right next to my desk. The office is rather quiet in general but still, you hear the sound of other people typing or talking on the phone and when the monitor of your colleague is right next to you it will distract you somewhat.
Now I can work in a room where I am alone and there is no one to distract me. I can also put on my favorite music. I realized that for tasks that require a lot of concentration I finish them a lot faster when I work in a quiet environment.
In our office, we have the business casual dress code but it is not taken too seriously. Nevertheless, you have to look somewhat decent.
Now I can work in any clothing I like which basically means that I will be wearing jogging pants all the time. That is comfy and I also save money on clothes because I don't have to buy office clothes anymore.
Have you already tried working from home? With the commuting situation in Tokyo, I think a lot more companies should offer the possibility to work from home, as chances are high it will have a positive effect on the employees' health and performance.
I like the idea of working from home and could certainly do without my crowded commute to and from work. I've always wondered if working from home make people more productive. By the sounds of it, it has in your case. I would worry about always going off to make a cup of tea or something! After having worked from home do you think it would be difficult for you to go back to an office environment?
The train ride to work is like a gladiator arena, old salaryman elbowing each other and yelling. I once saw a person got annoyed by another person typing on his laptop and start slam shutting that person's laptop screen continuously. Old Japanese salaryman + train will bring up the worst side of humanity in the world.

Group Identity and Social Preferences
Sherry Xin Li
We present a laboratory experiment that measures the effects of induced group identity on social preferences. We find that when participants are matched with an ingroup member, they show a 47 percent increase in charity concerns and a 93 percent decrease in envy. Likewise, participants are 19 percent more likely to reward an ingroup match for good behavior, but 13 percent less likely to punish an ingroup match for misbehavior. Furthermore, participants are significantly more likely to choose social-welfare-maximizing actions when matched with an ingroup member. All results are consistent with the hypothesis that participants are more altruistic toward an ingroup match. (JEL C91, D03, Z13)

Anchery Kavu Bhadrakali Temple is located in Anchery, around 5 km from Thrissur town, Kerala, South India.. You can reach this temple via Kuriachira (Ollur route)or via Anchery Chira (Kuttenellur route). If you are coming by bus its better to get down at Anchery chira, from there its only walk-able distance. The temple is clearly marked in Google map, so its easily accessible if you are coming by bike or car. (Anchery or Ancheri is Ward 25 of Thrissur Municipal Corporation).

Q: Using find with QAssociativeIterable or QSequentialIterable while avoiding copy in Qt5 I am looking for a way to use find with QAssiciativeIterable (or QSequentialIterable) without incurring a copy. Please see the example below:
QVariantMap variant = someData();

QAssociativeIterable iterable = variant.value<QAssociativeIterable>();
// Can use C++11 range-for over the values:
for (const QVariant &v : iterable) {
    // Since v is a reference, no copy occurs if I use it here
    qDebug() << v;
}

// Now find a key
auto it = iterable.find("some key"), end=iterable.end();
if (end != it){
    // We have a value, how can I get a REFERENCE to it?
    QVariant &v=it.???????();
    // NOTE: I know that I can do it.value(), but that would be a copy
}

Is this possible? What is the best way?

A: Just to be clear: QAssociativeIterable only implements a const_iterator, i.e. if you were hoping to modify the values via the reference: it's not possible.
But if you think of what the const reference in range-for here does, you see that it simply references a copy, and extends the lifetime of that copy for you.
There's no magic in the range-for. It uses the same iterators you have access to, and it does precisely what you imply is a 'copy'. After all, under the covers, the ranged-for simply does:
for (auto it = iterable.begin(); it != iterable.end(); it++) {
  const QVariant &v = *it;
  // your code here
}

So, technically you get a copy. But copying a QVariant is cheap. It's like any other implicitly shared type, except that it also does small-value optimization for you. It's 64 bits on 32-bit platforms, and 96 bits on 64-bit systems. Copying a QVariant that contains POD values costs the same as copying two void*s. Copying a QVariant that contains anything else (say, a QString), costs the same as copying two void*s, and an atomic reference count increment/decrement (you'll destroy that "copy' after all). You'd have really hard time seeing any benchmark difference between accessing a QVariant via a reference vs. accessing it via a copy.
