Sword Art Online (SAO) is a popular anime series that aired in 2012. One of the main characters of the series is Asuna Yuuki. She uses a type of sword that is called a rapier and her skills with that earned her the nickname The Flash. As one of the main characters of the series, a lot of ladies choose her as the anime character they want to cosplay.
Cosplaying Asuna, though, entails a lot of decisions, as she has different avatars. In SAO, her popular avatar wore the red and white Knights of the Blood (KOB) uniform with rapier sword. When the series shifted to the ALfheim Online (ALO) arc, Asuna has the Fairy Queen avatar called Titania, which has a white top that has a red ribbon that went around the top part and a long white skirt.
Her other avatar in ALO is the Undine avatar, which has a light blue hair and a uniform that is a bit similar in design to the KOB uniform she wore on SAO, except this one's blue and white. In the SAO Ordinal Scale movie, Asuna's avatar wears the augma uniform, which is a white uniform with black sleeves and black stripe on the center, red belt, and red pants. In the SAO Fatal Bullet game, Asuna's avatar is similar to that of her KOB uniform, except the color of the uniform is white and purple and she's carrying a gun instead of a sword.
Would you like to cosplay Asuna on your Halloween party? Let's show you the detailed guide one by one.
Asuna Yuuki had a lot of different avatars in the Sword Art Online series, but one of the most popular is the one where she is wearing the Knights of the Blood uniform. It's like a coat that is white with red linings and a red skirt, coupled with white boots.
This costume will be paired with a long orange-brownish chestnut wig for Asuna's hair and will come with two accessories, the heart blue crystal necklace and the rapier sword with red scabbard. You will also get an Asuna Yuuki figure that's wearing the Knights of the Blood uniform.
When it comes to cosplaying for female anime characters, Asuna Yuuki of the Sword Art Online anime is probably one of the favorite characters that people try to imitate for their costume, especially her Knights of the Blood avatar. The Knights of the Blood guild is a clearing group in the anime and Asuna is the second in command.
Though the character is just the second in command, she actually acted more as the leader of the entire guild during her time there, which adds to the costume's popularity, as it symbolizes Asuna's leadership and combat skill. The red and white motif and Red Cross symbol of the Knights of the Blood was motivated by the Knights Templar.
It's so sweating to cosplay with your Kirito for couple cosplay. Please feel free to contact us to share your cosplay photo if you have any Asuna cosplay.
One of Asuna Yuuki's avatar that you can cosplay is her Fairy Queen or Fairy Dance avatar called Titania that she wore in the ALfheim Online arc. It's a white halter crop top that has a red ribbon around the top area of the outfit that came together to form a bow and a long white skirt.
This avatar is barefoot and only wears white strips around both ankles. The accessories to be worn here are the elf ears and the long orange-brownish chestnut wig for Asuna's long hair. This Fairy Dance outfit also comes with an Asuna Yuuki figure that is also wearing the Fairy Dance avatar.
The ALfheim Online (ALO) arc happened a year after the Sword Art Online (SAO) game was finally completed. Asuna Yuuki was one of the unfortunate characters, who was transferred instantly to ALO after the SAO game ended. She was a prisoner in this Fairy Dance arc series before being rescued by the other main character of the anime series Kirigaya "Kirito" Kazuto.
Asuna's avatar in the Fairy Dance Arc is the Fairy Queen Titania. This is the anime character's only avatar that is not geared towards combat, as she was mostly a prisoner in this arc and not really one of the combatants.
One of the many avatars that Asuna Yuuki wore in the Sword Art Online series is the Augma uniform she wore in the movie Sword Art Online: Ordinal Scale. The uniform is basically a white military top with a thick black stripe in the middle, black sleeves with red linings on the wrist and a red belt. There's also red tight pants and a white, black, and red boots that are up to above them.
It also comes with elf ears a light blue weapon necklace and an Asuna Yuuki figure that is wearing the Augma costume.
The popularity of the Sword Art Online (SAO) anime series has reached cinemas with the Sword Art Online: Ordinal Scale movie. Ordinal Scale is an augmented reality game, which means the game takes place in the real world. Asuna Yuuki was one of the first players of the game and she experienced success in the early parts of the game, even defeating several bosses. But the game is causing her to lose her SAO memories, forcing her to stop playing for a while, returning only in the end to help defeat the main boss.
Asuna's avatar in the Ordinal Scale is her only appearance where she's wearing pants instead of the usual white coat, which is a good and easier alternative to cosplaying the character.
Another avatar of Asuna Yuuki that you can cosplay in the ALfheim Online arc is her Undine avatar. Her outfit here is a bit similar, in design, to her Knights of the Blood outfit in that it's like a white coat with blue linings, a white skirt, and a white boots with a blue and grey design.
This cosplay comes with a long light blue wig, as Asuna is sporting light blue hair in this avatar, and elf ears. It also comes with an Asuna Yuuki figure that's also wearing the Undine avatar.
For the ALfheim Online arc, Asuna Yuuki's Fairy Queen is not your only choice of appearance that you can cosplay. She also has the Undine avatar, which is the avatar she uses for battle. Her Undine avatar is supposed to be a healer, but Asuna's style of rushing into battle with her rapier instead of staying in the background and focus on healing gave her the nickname the Berserk Healer.
Unlike her Fairy Queen avatar, where she is dressed like a queen, this avatar is similar in design and appearance to her Knights of the Blood avatar, except this one is blue instead of red.
If any of Asuna Yuuki's avatar in the anime series doesn't seem to interest you but you still want to cosplay her, then you can try her avatar in the Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet game. The outfit here is similar in design to the Knights of the Blood and Undine outfits, as she wears a white coat that has a purple design on the side and a silver breastplate.
You will also be wearing boots that are up to the knees, a long orange-brownish chestnut wig and a Sword Art Online Sword Necklace. This cosplay also comes with an Asuna Yuuki figure wearing the Fatal Bullet avatar.
The Sword Art Online (SAO) series also has a video game titled Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet. It's a third-person shooter role-playing game released for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. In this game, you won't be playing any of the characters of Sword Art Online, as you'll be playing a character of your own design. You will just be encountering the other characters throughout the game, including one of SAO's main character Asuna Yuuki.
Asuna's avatar in this game is a bit similar to the Undine avatar and Knights of the Blood avatar, as she's also wearing a white coat here. The main difference, though, is her weapon, as the female warrior is carrying guns instead of her signature rapier.

Aligning Teacher Incentives with Desired Outcomes
One of the important differentiating features of public charter schools is the possibility of innovating with respect to teacher incentives. Teacher pay in public schools is tied almost exclusively to the teacher's education level and years of teaching. The foundational principles of effective management indicate that "you get what you measure" and so thinking critically about the measuring stick applied to teacher incentives is an important exercise when thinking about student outcomes. For West Virginia public educators, pay incentives are based almost exclusively on their education level and their time in the job and, while experience and education are important predictors of success, neither of these factors tie directly to student outcomes or demand accountability on the part of teachers in general. Outstanding teachers will arise in any system as many teachers are intrinsically motivated to such an extent that the incentive structure is immaterial to their output, but extrinsically motivated individuals tend to flourish only when the incentives are aligned with organizational goals. Even very intrinsically motivated individuals will tend to perform a little better when the extrinsic incentives are aligned with the desired outcomes of their organization and so incentive structures matter. Thus, in order to maximize the effectiveness of any organization it is very important to align the incentive structures with the desired outcomes, but there are virtually no incentives to promote effective teaching within the public education system in West Virginia.
To further articulate this issue, I'll share an account from one of the teachers who truly inspired me in my high school years. Mr. Cushing was my public high school art teacher and he had a unique vision and drive for student learning and outcomes. He developed a very robust Advanced Placement studio art program, identified and obtained external sources of funding, and his teaching methods were truly innovative. He understood the importance of conveying both the theoretical elements of fine art without losing sight of the practical application and realities of where jobs existed in that space. He incorporated technological advances in his classroom that most college programs had not yet achieved. He also taught the importance of character and being a good person in his art lessons. The results of his approach to teaching were stunning.
Most of his AP students passed the AP exam, which required an intense portfolio submission that typically took three years to compile, and many of his top students went on to earn scholarships at major Universities in competitive fine arts programs. One particularly gifted student I sat in class with went on to CalArts and then a very successful career that has included significant roles in shaping the animation for several of the most successful animated films of all time. While I did not pursue a career in fine arts, my experience with the program put me in a position to successfully receive AP credit for my art portfolio and, more importantly, enriched my love for learning in general. I attribute that to Mr. Cushing and a handful of other truly outstanding teachers who motivated me to go on to complete college, two advanced degrees in law, and engage in rewarding careers as a CPA, attorney, and university professor in Accounting.
I've frequently thought back on some of the lessons I learned in Mr. Cushing's classes that went beyond just the immediate subject matter and one conversation about teacher incentives really stands out to me. One day after school during my senior year I was in Mr. Cushing's classroom to finalize a couple of projects for my AP studio art portfolio. He commonly opened his classroom after school for this purpose so that students had access to the materials to complete projects. In that setting I expressed my gratitude for Mr. Cushing's hard work and how it made a real difference for me personally as I knew not every teacher shared his level of dedication. He then taught me some things about teacher incentives that I will never forgot.
Mr. Cushing stated that there would be more teachers like him if the incentives in public education were aligned with actual student outcomes and program development, but that the opposite is largely true. He said that being a great teacher takes tremendous dedication of time and effort and that in most cases that effort is not rewarded and it's sometimes even punished. Most incentives in public education actually discourage teachers from going above and beyond as each additional hour spent teaching or building a program generally diminishes the hourly rate earned by that teacher. Additionally, achieving tremendous success in a particular program can often negatively impact relationships with other teachers who are concerned about scrutiny of their own work and who are not interested in increasing the expectations given the low salary structure in public education. Mr. Cushing longed for a change to the incentive structure for teachers, but suggested that such change would only come from the outside and was unlikely in his lifetime or mine. He also made me promise that I would not forget this conversation if I was ever in a position to promote positive changes in public education.
Mr. Cushing did not give his take on why the system would be difficult to change, but over time I have learned more about the entrenched incentive structures for public education and how that system stands in the way of progress in primary and secondary education. These flawed incentive structures are as bad in West Virginia as in any other state I've lived in and, not surprisingly, our educational outcomes are hovering around the bottom of all states in the U.S. If a principal or superintendent were to attempt to align public teacher incentives with organizational goals or student outcomes outside the charter school setting then they would face tremendous and hostile resistance from forces that primarily seek to maximize pay and minimize accountability for teachers, administrators, and support personnel. In fact, this resistance has been built into our laws in West Virginia that require lock-step pay for teachers based on tenure and education level as well as various administrative positions that lock up funding to such an extent that administrator's hands are tied when it comes to incentive alignment. Additionally, the West Virginia laws are designed to maximize jobs in education, broadly defined, to the detriment of teacher salaries that are among the lowest in the United States in spite of our high spending per student on education overall.
If West Virginia Academy becomes a reality, then our organization intends to implement incentives that more closely align with student outcomes and organizational goals. We will continue to think critically about how our teacher's spend their time to maximize student achievement. We will implement incentive raises and bonuses that are based on more than just education level and time in the job and will likely include additional factors such as parent and student satisfaction, program building, and improvement in student outcomes. We will also specifically tie incentives to extra-curricular activities and carefully measure effort and cordiality among our faculty when measuring overall teacher performance. Teachers that under perform in our system will be supported with opportunities for improvement and our base pay will be competitive with neighboring states to attract top talent and motivate all of our teachers to continuously improve. We plan to place more funding in teacher salaries and classrooms by maintaining a flatter organizational structure, but we will also seek external sources of funding in support of these goals. We believe such a structure will improve teacher job satisfaction as the expectations will be clearly stated up front and teachers will be supported to achieve higher expectations.
While we hope to provide a model for public schools more generally in West Virginia, the only space where this approach can be adopted in the public system in West Virginia under current law is through a charter school. Changes to the law to enable greater incentive alignment are unlikely to happen in the absence of a model of demonstrated success in our community and West Virginia Academy seeks to provide that successful model for policy makers in our state.

link	Tell them – A Poet Shouts Out
Kia ora KIN whānau, this is a repost requested by Cynthia Albers – Arc Inspired Press about this remarkable Indigenous Marshall Islands poet Kathy Jetnil-Kijiner that was originally posted 18th October 2016 (https://arcinspired.net/2016/10/18/tell-them-%E2%80%A2-a-poet-shouts-out/). Enjoy the words of this conscious warrior whanau……
It was overdue, but I surrendered to reading selected works of the 1950s Beat poets only weeks before I encountered slam poetry in 1980s Chicago. It was not difficult to draw comparisons between the two styles. Both seemed to fly from the pens of young writers motivated by events of their time, with political undercurrents that demanded to be spoken, if not roared, out loud.
Slam poetry relies on the spoken word. It is a product of poetry slam competitions, where the artists employ rhetorical skills to capture attention, accomplishing this, in some cases, by discomforting their audience. When it comes to social issues and political themes, slam poets want to wake you up.
Daughter of the Marshall Islands
When I heard Marshallese poet Kathy Jetnil-Kijiner speak in Portland, Oregon, on September 29th she seemed too polite—almost shy—to deliver a riveting call to action. She referenced slam poetry and gave some background on her adoption of the style following her years at Mills College and her inspired participation in the Poetry for the People program at the University of California, Berkeley. By the end of the evening it was clear that this writer speaks strongly for her generation, and will no doubt remain on the front line of arts activism.
Tell Them We Are Whispering Prayers
Jetnil-Kijiner wants to open the eyes of the world to climate change, before it is too late. Her poem Tell Them pleads with the world community to recognize the plight of island nations, and denies that resident relocation is a viable solution to rising sea levels. World leaders believe that the earth can warm another 2 degrees before calamity occurs, but beyond 1.5 degrees the oceans will rise to a point that renders these Micronesian islands uninhabitable. As the sea begins to wash over the land it claims the history, traditions, and identity of the indigenous people.
tell them we are descendants
of the finest navigators in the world
tell them our islands were dropped
from a basket
carried by a giant
but most importantly tell them
we don't want to leave
we've never wanted to leave
and that we
are nothing without our islands
United Nations Laureate
In the autumn of 2014 Jetnil-Kijiner was selected from 500 applicants to speak at the United Nations Climate Summit in New York. The committee referred to her as a Climate Change Poet and tasked her with writing a new poem. She was given two weeks to "write a poem that will save the world." (She stifled a nervous laugh.)
She admitted it was difficult, if not daunting, to think of what to say in front of the United Nations, but much easier to find the necessary words when she imagined speaking directly to her newborn child, Matafele Peinam. The resulting poem Dear Matafele Peinam received a standing ovation.
they say you, your daughter
and your granddaughter, too
will wander rootless
with only a passport to call home
no one's drowning, baby
no one's moving
no one's losing their homeland
no one's gonna become
a climate change refugee
or should I say
Paris Conference • Taking It to the Street
Now in the international spotlight, Jetnil-Kilijner welcomed an opportunity to take part in the 2015 Paris climate conference (COP21). This time she took her poetry to the street, with a slam poetry style that had sharpened its edge.
People of Color on the Front Line
Former Oregon congresswoman Jo Ann Hardesty served as MC for the September Portland event. An inspiring speaker, now president of the NAACP Portland chapter, she plainly stated that people of color are positioned at the forefront of environmental issues like climate change. Who knows better, she asked, than people of color, who are more likely to live without access to clean water, and who find fast food more available in their communities than a basket of strawberries?
Jetnil-Kijiner has become keenly aware of her role in the broader indigenous peoples community. She is strongly inspired by Dallas Goldtooth, a member of the Dakota and Dine tribes, and the Spirit Camp Warriors who are fighting to stop the Dakota Access Pipeline. The message of the Native Americans is akin to that of the Marshall Islanders—the world community must wake up to the urgency of accepting alternatives to fossil fuel. The quality of our water and the stability of our oceans depends on it.
Jetnil-Kijiner's poem For the Dakota Water Protectors closes with these words:
You were meant
for a life pure enough

Kathy Jetnil-Kijiner is a Marshallese poet, writer, performance artist, and journalist. She has used her poetry to raise awareness of the struggles of her island nation, including social justice issues and forced migration. Raised and educated in Hawaii, she studied at Mills College and the University of California, Berkeley. She currently serves as Pacific Studies instructor at the College of the Marshall Islands. Her book, Poems from a Marshallese Daughter, will be available in December 2016. Visit her website

How do I insert/attach a file "as a file" into libreoffice.
I would like to insert a complete PDF file into a LibreOffice document, if I do insert >> file >> pdf.pdf it opens and pastes the complete file into the doc. I need to "attach" the full file as is, without it opening into the document..
You can do this from the menu Insert->Hyperlink. This is using v4.4.7.2. I mention this because in v5.1.x many menu items have been moved ( ie: maybe from Insert to Edit or even to a submenu). From there you can set up the link to your document (as well as other items) with text (I believe you have to right click the resulting text & select open) or a push button. This creates a link which can open the other document.
Thanks I wasn't able to do this, but did the following as a workaround.
I was able to import it as an ole object by firstly exporting the file which was originally a excel doc from a xls file to ods file, once I did this I could scale down the speadsheet as I needed. Not perfect but got me sorted.

American schools are becoming more culturally and linguistically diverse. While many students quickly attain proficiency in English, there's often a language barrier when communicating with parents. As an ESL teacher, overcoming language and cultural barriers have become part of my job description. Although I'm fortunate to be fluent and literate in Spanish, many of my students and their families are not Spanish speaking, so I find myself in the same predicament as many regular education teachers when having to communicate with non-English-speaking parents.
While Spanish may be the most common home language of many multilingual students, there are pockets of the country where other languages, such as Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean, Hmong, Haitian Creole, and Arabic are widely spoken. Perhaps you have a Spanish-speaking staff member on your campus to assist with parent meetings, but if a family speaks another foreign language, you may be in a bind. Conversely, some families are indeed English speaking, and while their accents may be heavy, English is their language of choice, so communication may be challenging. Despite any language barriers, it behooves us to reach out to those of different languages and cultures so they feel welcome and comfortable in our schools.
1. Listen and learn. Ask questions, read, and take the time to learn about their language and heritage. Avoid stereotypes at all cost. Whether you have a predominantly Hispanic, Asian, Arab, or European student population, ethnic groups come in all colors, shapes, and sizes—not to mention dialects and religious backgrounds. Don't assume anything. People within the same ethnic group, and often from the same country, will eat different foods, speak different languages, and celebrate different holidays.
When offering a Hispanic heritage night, don't just serve tacos, unless you're expecting a predominantly Mexican audience (and even then you might want to offer a more nuanced menu). Many non-Mexican Hispanics are highly offended when folks assume they are Mexican. I know a Colombian parent who walked out on a Spanish night presentation because, according to her, "everything was Mexican." While the majority of Hispanics in the United States are indeed Mexican, Hispanics represent numerous different countries. In my case, I'm Cuban and grew up in Miami. I didn't meet a Mexican until I went to Cancun on vacation with my parents.
If you have a large Indian student population, remember there are 15 official languages and countless other unofficial languages in India. Indians from different regions will not be able to communicate with each other unless they both speak English. Furthermore, although English is actually India's common official language, it is very different from American English. While it's likely you can communicate in English, it's safe to expect some communication breakdown.
If many of your parents are Asian, be sure to know more specific information about their countries and regions. And please don't assume that Koreans, Japanese, and Chinese can understand each other. Their languages and physical characteristics may seem very similar, but these groups are vastly different, both culturally and linguistically.
2. Use technology. Professional translators aren't always available at schools, but Google Translate is. It isn't perfect, but it works fairly well. If you use Remind, you can copy/paste the translation into your messages so parents receive them in their native language. I set up a Remind group in Spanish, not only to send messages about my class, but also to translate school calls on important topics such as report cards or snow days. Remind also recently released its Translate feature in Spanish, French, Portuguese, Chinese, and German. For users who set up the app in one of those languages, a translation button will appear when they receive messages in English. By simply tapping a button, messages will be instantly translated into the requested language. If you need translation into any other language, Remind's private chat feature allows you to send translated messages to someone, by simply copying and pasting from Google Translate. Class Dojo also recently released a Translate feature enabling translation into 30 different languages. While I'm not currently a Class Dojo user, some of my children's teachers have used it in the past, and I found it to be an excellent tool.
3. Use standard English. Some parents' English is broken, but they will be able to understand the gist of the message if you speak slowly and avoid slang, idioms, and analogies. Ask for their "two-cents" and they may hand you some change instead of giving you their input. Likewise, an analogy may help a native English speaker more clearly understand a teaching strategy or approach, but to a non-English speaker, it may be completely confusing.
4. Smiles are understood by all. Care and compassion have no language. A warm and friendly demeanor will express much more than words. When parents sense you are genuinely concerned about their son or daughter, they will connect with you and it will improve their child's school experience.
5. Stay connected. Reaching out to parents is not a once-a-year thing. We need to stay in touch all year long. Connecting with parents helps develop a valuable partnership that will undoubtedly benefit the student in the classroom. All parents want their children to learn. My parents never quite mastered the English language, so they couldn't help me with my homework, but they held me accountable and pushed me to achieve more than they ever could. They understood the value of education and highly respected my teachers. I find that most families are not very different from my parents. They all want their children to thrive. Staying connected can help parents feel like part of this valued process.
Use some of the technology tools mentioned above. Weekly Remind or Class Dojo messages keep parents abreast of what's happening in the classroom and can also give you a chance to brag a little.
6. Push politics aside. Our students' birthplace or immigration status is irrelevant. They are entitled to an education, and it is our job to serve them well. Reaching out to parents will not only generate their support, but will likely increase academic achievement. After all, we want well-behaved, high-achieving students, not dropouts roaming the streets.
As a former English-language learner who entered kindergarten without speaking a word of English, I understood the language acquisition process well before taking my first language-education course. My personal experiences have made me keenly aware of how to best reach out to parents. One thing is for certain. Parents want to know that their child is cared for and valued while at school and that you are not only their teacher, but also their ally. Cultural and linguistic barriers are undoubtedly challenging, but they are not impossible to overcome.

Q: Is it possable to iterate all files in a directory and have assign a number to each file and wait for input in cmd script I am attempting to automate a process using a batch script. I want to iterate all the files in a specific directory with a specific file extension (.gho) and do something with it.
I know I can get the file names with "dir /B *.gho" but I would like cmd to list each file name with a number and wait for input then pass file the name off to a variable so it can be combined with another variable containing a command to execute.
Example:

*

*WinXP.gho

*Win7.gho

*Win10.gho

What image would you like to use?

I know I can write something like this in VB.net but this is going to be used in a PE boot disk and from what I understand .net apps don't work in a PE without some work.
Can someone point me in the right direction, once I know it can be done and what to look for I probably can figure out the rest myself.
Thanks in advance.

A: Assuming that findstr.exe resides in %SystemRoot%\System32 of your PE base OS, and the current working directory under which this script is running, holds your target .gho files, here's an example template you can use:
@Echo Off
SetLocal EnableExtensions DisableDelayedExpansion
Set "ext=.gho"
For /F "Delims==" %%G In ('"(Set #) 2> NUL"') Do Set "%%G="
For /F "Tokens=1* Delims=:" %%G In ('Dir /B /A:-D "*%ext%" 2^> NUL ^| ^
 %SystemRoot%\System32\findstr.exe /E /I /L /N "%ext%"'
) Do Set "#%%G=%%H" & Echo( %%G.    %%H
If Not Defined #1 (Echo No file matches, press a key to exit.
    Pause 1> NUL & GoTo :EOF)
:Opt
Set "opt="
Echo(
Set /P "opt=Enter the number for your chosen file>"
Set "opt=%opt:"=%"
Set # | %SystemRoot%\System32\findstr.exe /B /L "#%opt%=" 1> NUL || GoTo Opt
SetLocal EnableDelayedExpansion
For %%G In ("!#%opt%!") Do EndLocal & Set "opt=%%G"
Echo(
Echo( You Selected %opt%
Pause

As this is a template the extension on line 3 is replaceable with any other, as needed. Your own code would be written from line 18, (replacing the three example lines I included just to show you the result, now assigned to %opt%. Nothing else between those two lines should be modified.


'Tis the season for holiday parties, and many pet lovers jump at the opportunity to include their four-legged friends in the festivities. Pet holiday parties may range from the simply elegant to the simply silly, but they all have one thing in common – a doggone good time.
Attire: One of the best ways to set the stage for a party is to ask guests to sport a festive look, and pets are no exception. For a classy party, use your invitation to ask your guests to dress up and remind them to bring their furry friends on their favorite fancy leash. You can find an array of dressy options at PetSmart, including bowties, sparkle dresses and the Santa Cat Cape, all will surely dress up the occasion.
Or go the other direction with a fun ugly sweater party. Invite your friends to dress the part and bring their pets in their silliest attire. The Bret Michaels PetsRock line of ugly sweaters – some even light up – are the perfect complement to your own gaudy attire.
Mealtime: Consider setting up a treat buffet for your four-legged friends. Fill large clear glass containers with different varieties of colorful treats.
Manners: Don't expect your four-legged friends to share. Purchase a festive dog bowl for each guest, such as the Martha Stewart Pets Santa ceramic bowl from PetSmart, and fill each with water. Then keep them for next year's holiday party, or give them away as party favors at the end of the event.
Music: Set the tone with holiday tunes, or go one step further with a little bit of research into the names and breeds of the pets loved by the composers or singers. Make a playlist of your favorites and type it up for your guests.
Decor: Snap a Polaroid photo of each of your guests in their festive attire as they arrive. Hang a clothesline made of ribbons near the entrance and clip the photos up with clothespins as they print for instant personalized decor that your guests will love.
Gifts: Don't forget the party favors. Consider a small gift for each family to take home with a bone-shaped card attached that reads "Happy Howlidays!" Another option is a small faux tree decorated with bright dog toys and bones. (Be sure to use a faux tree; four-legged guests may be tempted to leave their mark on the real thing.) At the end of the event, you can ask your guests to choose a treat as their take-home favor.

\With responsibility for dog control inside Sussex County transferring to county officials in January, county council members and staff began work this week on adoption of Chapter 60 of county code, the ordinance setting up the rules for the county's new dog-control operations.
In preliminary discussion at the council's Nov. 2 meeting, county staff noted that most of the requirements of pet owners, as well as kennel and retail dog business owners, are already in place in state law.
The bulk of Chapter 60 will, in fact, simply restate existing state requirements for the licensing of individual dogs, kennels and dog businesses, while establishing a new schedule of fees that will come a little closer to making the operations pay for themselves – even if actually making them revenue-neutral is still a long way off.
For example, the current state license for a spayed or neutered dog costs $3, or $6 for an unaltered dog. Sussex County's proposed fees would increase that cost to $10 for an altered dog or $15 for an unaltered one.
Kennel licenses will continue to be graduated based on the number of dogs being kept, such as four to 12, 25 to 49 and 50 or more, but those fees will also increase.
County staff estimated that the State of Delaware currently takes in about $23,000 in individual license fees per year in Sussex, based on the known number of dogs and the current fees. But dog control in Sussex costs about $600,000 per year – generating a funding shortfall that the state budget has always covered.
Under the new, increased fees proposed by county staff, assuming the same number of dogs are licensed, the county's income from dog licenses will still only come to about $68,000, leaving more than $500,000 in expenses for the county to cover from other revenue sources.
County staff have suggested some additional funding possibilities, including a low-number dog license program in which an additional fee would be charged to those wishing to obtain the special licenses, or an additional fee for county dog-control staff to deliver a stray dog home to its owner, rather than having the owner come to the central kennel location.
The ordinance includes a process for the council to directly approve such programs in the future if it wishes, rather than requiring another public hearing if they are considered after the original ordinance is adopted.
Council members did express concern on Tuesday with some limitations of the dog licensing program that were proposed for at least its first year.
The new program would offer only one-year licenses, requiring dog owners to purchase a new license each January that would expire at the end of December. Licenses purchased after Jan. 1 would not be pro-rated, so even those buying a license in the fall for a new dog would pay the full one-year license fee.
"Whether it's for one year or three years, it seems like the same effort," Councilman George Cole pointed out of staff involvement.
County Administrator David Baker said state officials had recommended the one-year license period, because, they said, it made administration of the licensing program much easier and it was much easier for individual dog owners to know when they had to renew the licenses.
Cole also questioned the decision not to have a 12-month licensing period that begins when the license is purchased.
"To be practical about it, we're not going to put them in jail if they get a dog in September and don't get the license until January," county staff in charge of the program said.
Fines for not obtaining a dog license will remain the same as they currently are: $50 for a first offense and $100 for each subsequent offense within 12 months of the first.
Seeing-eye and other guide dogs and K-9 police officers have their license fees waived. Licenses are also not required for dogs until they are 6 months old, so those with a litter of puppies will have a chance to find the pups new homes before they must purchase licenses.
No reminder system for the renewals is planned, but staff said they can consider such a system in the future.
Dog licenses should be purchased in the dog's primary area of residence, Baker emphasized, but there will be reciprocity between Delaware's three counties on dog licensing – a dog licensed in one county will be considered to be licensed in the other two.
Another change in the licensing system is a move away from retail sellers of dog licenses.
Instead of being able to purchase the license at a local pet shop or veterinary office, for instance, dog owners will be able to pick up a mail-in form at such locations – as well as at county offices, and perhaps libraries – and mail them in with their certification of the dog's required vaccinations being up-to-date and payment for the license. A license tag will be mailed back to them.
The county will also be offering dog licensing online through a new Web site, where owners can fill out the same information and make payment online. The tags will be mailed to the dog owner after they complete that process.
A return to a system in which veterinary offices and other pet-related businesses could serve as retailers for dog licenses could also be considered in the future, according to staff, but they noted that there had been concerns about the reliability of retailers sending in the paperwork and keeping track of the money paid for licenses at such locations.
"We could set up a process where veterinarians or SPCA agencies or businesses can sell dog licenses, but … we'd like to try using the Web site, mail and the county administrative building as locations to sell dog licenses. We could sell them right at the building permit counter," said Baker.
Starting in January, county dog-control authorities will also take over inspection of facilities for kennels and retail dog outlets – something that is currently done once per year for those locations, by Kent County SPCA employees.
If those inspections do not satisfy requirements for humane handling of the dogs, a warning is issued. If the problems are not corrected in 10 to 60 days, fines and other penalties are assessed according to state code. The state code for humane treatment remains the guiding document for the inspections.
Having received preliminary comments from kennel owners leading up to Nov. 2's meeting, Phillips noted that they had taken issue with certain provisions of the proposed county dog-control ordinance.
"I'm expecting an earful this week," Phillips said on Tuesday.
Council members also pointed to some confusion about the existing kennel licensing provisions, which require a kennel license for anyone owning more than four dogs, whether that's as pets, for breeding, for hunting or otherwise.
The kennel licenses eliminate the requirement for individual licenses for each dog, but not everyone with more than four dogs wants to have their property labeled as a kennel, as was indicated in a recent hearing before the county's Board of Adjustments.
"There may be a separate issue with zoning if someone has that number of dogs," Baker also noted.
With expectations of some concerns arising about the ordinance from some dog owners and some dog-business owners, council members agreed to consider the proposed ordinance for at least another week and asked that it be placed on the county Web site for public review.
A hearing on the ordinance can be scheduled no earlier than the first week of December, after which the council can vote to adopt it or to make changes. Significant changes would mean the ordinance would have to have another public hearing, however.
Council members planned to discuss the ordinance again at their Nov. 10 meeting.


Chomsky takes aim at Obama's drone program, which he describes as "the most extreme terrorist campaign of modern times."
It "target[s] people suspected of perhaps intending to harm us some day, and any unfortunates who happen to be nearby."
We launched this campaign last year with the Afghan Peace Volunteers to celebrate the nation's favourite pass-time of kite flying, while urging the US & NATO to stop using armed drones which kill civilians.
Over 25 UK groups took part in the action as did groups in the US, Australia, Sweden and Spain.
This year we urge everyone to raise a kite to the sky for all the children around the world who have to live under the threat of drones.
Hold a kite making workshop by following this simple and fun template, please photograph or film your event and send it to us with a brief report.
The 9 Elbit rooftop protestors (includes VCNV Maya Evans & Ewa Jasiewicz) occupied and closed down UAV Systems for 2 days on the 5th - 6th August, during the last assault on Gaza, to protest agaisnt Britain's involvement in arming Israel.
The factory is a fundamental part of the Watchkeeper programme (tested in Afghanistan), under which Elbit Systems is leading production of a new generation of drones for the UK military which has been modelled on the Hermes drone, the engine for which is made at UAV Engines, Shenstone near Birmingham.
The Hermes 450 has been extensively used in Afghanistan, providing over 50,000 hours of support to UK Forces since it entered service in 2007.
Elbit uses the murderous impact of its weapons for profit, marketing the drones as "field-tested" – in other words, proven to successfully kill Palestinians with nowhere to run. The UK government is importing technology that has been developed through the course of Israel's military operations against Gaza.
Supporters are encouraged to join us at the court in New Castle Under Lyne, near Stoke, while there will also be a protest taking place outside the Shenstone factory, Lichfield on the 10th February, 2.30pm.
The VCNV UK peace delegation of Maya Evans, Mary Dobbing & Henrietta Cullinan returned home earlier this month, read their accounts and invite them to speak about their experiences and the work of Afghan peace makers.

I'm not ashamed to say it: I adore the classic horror B movies. There's a certain charm to them as you can see by my addition of Blade as one of the scariest dolls in horror cinema. They're corny. Cheesy. Even bad. But that's the thing about those scary movies we loved to watch at the drive-in and enjoyed ripping the crap out of them while getting some wicked scares in, because they were typically a bit bloodier than even some of the cinematic riff-raff we're getting. Something about dolls and puppets just seems scary, man!
That, my friend, is one scary puppet. Just look at him. You don't find skeletons like that looking sinister. Sorry, Chucky. I love you, but Puppet Master is where I'm the marionette, and the world is my stage of horror.

Step 1: Sympathometic thermogenic Activation: Beta-Methoxy Phenylethlyamine (also called Beta-Methoxy PEA) is an exciting new ingredient used exclusively in DREN. Beta-Methox-PEA works in part by increasing noradrenaline (NA) release from sympathetic nerve terminals. As a sympathomimetic, Beta-Methoxy PEA acts to stimulate the sympathetic nervous system. It does this by causing pre-synaptic nerve terminals to release norepinephrine, or what is commonly called noradrenaline (NA), into the synaptic space. It also has the effect of increasing circulating adrenaline, the body's chief beta-2 agonist. Noradrenaline, once released into the synaptic space, interacts with adrenergic receptors on the surface of adipocytes (fat). This initiates a sequence of events within the adipocyte that increases lipolysis (the breaking down of fatty acids) by the enzyme hormone sensitive lipase (HSL). This fat burning effect is dependent on long and steady activation of the receptor by the agonist and is what makes the discovery of Beta-Methoxy PEA so critical and why it is much more effective than other Beta-PEA Formulas. Beta-Methoxy PEA is the most effective B-PEA beta-agonist by virtue of its long half-life (stays in the body longer) as well as its affinity to be absorbed in fat tissue and better permeate the blood/brain barrier. In contrast, the half-life of many other Beta-PEA forms is only minutes as the enzyme MAO-B quickly metabolizes them and are less lipophilic which prevents significant concentrations from reaching the brain--- therefore no psychoactive and weight loss effect is achieved. As mentioned earlier, while the inclusion of MAO-inhibitors would seem to work the evidence shows otherwise. Beta-Methoxy PEA does not have to worry about being broken down by MAO-B due to its unique configuration. The beta Methoxy moiety on this compound protects it and allows for increased absorption across the blood brain barrier and deep penetration into the fatty tissues of the brain where it interacts with the adrenergic receptors. This increase in noradrenaline and adrenergic receptors activation increases cAMP levels in fat cells (increasing its breakdown) and muscle cells (increasing protein synthesis). Beta-Methoxy-PEA's unique configuration or moiety is what gives it its long duration of action, its exceptional ability to permeate fat tissue and extremely powerful fat burning effects. I can't emphasize the point enough: it's the Methoxy in Beta-Methoxy-PEA that makes it simply unmatched to all other forms of Beta PEA no matter what jargon you read--and its only found in DREN!
In addition, Beta-Methoxy Phenethylamine's enhanced moiety and ability to better penetrate the blood brain barrier elicits extreme euphoric feel good neuro-sensory. Beta-Methoxy-PEA, is an alkaloid and monoamine, therefore, it is believed to function as a neuromodulator or neurotransmitter and elicits extreme psychoactive effects on the body while burning body fat at an unforseen rate. To sum it up, Beta-Methoxy Phenethylamine freely enters the brain barrier and triggers a cascading release of norepinephrine, dopamine and serotonin and stimulates the mesolimbic reward pathway, causing euphoria and excitement.
Step 2: The Inclusion of an Alpha 2 Agonist works as a Clenbuterol mimetic to further Enhance Beta-Methoxy PEA fat burning! While Beta-Methoxy-PEA by itself is a remarkably effective thermogenic, the scientists at MHP wanted to take fat burning to a new levels. Let's face it ever since the FDA banned ephedra everyone has been looking for an alternative and Clenbuterol will get 5 to 10 years in prison! MHP wasn't only looking to develop and ephedra alternative we were looking to take it way beyond the ECA stack. Once we isolated Beta-Methoxy-PEA and saw its similar yet superior mechanisms of actions as ephedra we knew we could do it. In response to Beta-Methoxy-PEA's beta-adrenergic stimulation, negative feedback mechanisms are activated as well. This negative feedback can shutdown lipolysis (fat burning). Just the same way in which this negative feedback effect ephedra, the stimulation of the Alpha 2 receptor as well as the production of phosphodiesterases and adenosine occurs. The alpha 2 receptor, phosphodiesterases and adenosine try to slow down or halt the fat burning process which is the reason why caffeine and aspirin were often added to Ephedra products. Caffeine and aspirin overcame much of the negative feedback mechanisms and made Ephedra even better. In the case of DREN, Beta-Methoxy-PEA works in the same exact ways that Ephedra only better, but also undergoes these negative feedback mechanisms. Therefore, measures had to be taken to maximize Beta-Methoxy-PEA's actions in the body and minimize these negative feedback mechanisms. In doing so MHP scientists were able to mimic the actions of Clenbuterol.
Ephedra and all forms of Beta-PEA are considered non-selective adrenergics through the release of noradrenaline because they don't just active one type of receptor. Unfortunately, noradrenaline functions as its own negative feedback signal by activating both the beta and alpha adrenergic receptors.. As you recall, the stimulation of beta receptors is good as it initiates the fat burning process, but the Alpha 2 receptors actually shut down lipolysis (fat burning). MHP scientists added Yohimbine HCL to the DREN formula to by pass Alpha 2 receptor binding and increases the effectiveness of DREN. Yohimbine HCL is a selective alpha 2 antagonist and can thus short circuit this feedback loop, maximizing noradrenaline levels and the overall fat loss actions of Beta-Methoxy PEA. What we have created is a mechanism of action which closely mimics that of Clenbuterol, which is long acting activation on the beta receptor with little to no activity at the alpha receptor. Resulting in the most powerful thermogenic activity in adipose tissue possible.
Step 3: Phosphodiesterase Inhibitibiton and Adenosine Receptor Interferance
Most people like caffeine because of its stimulatory and energizing effects. But, caffeine has a much more important role than that in DREN. Stimulation of Beta-adrenergic receptor also means an increase in phosphodiesterase and adenosine activity. Phosphodiesterase (PDE) acts to hydrolyze cAMP into inactive fragments while adenosine inhibits cAMP accumulation halting the stimulation of HSL and the fat burning process. Caffeine possesses the ability to inhibit phosphodiesterases within the cell and has even been shown to have the ability to prevent some re-uptake of norepinephrine while also acting as an adenosine receptor blocker. As you can see, caffeine provides important powerful synergies to maximize DREN's fat burning effects.
Step 4: Powerful Psycho-active "Feel Good" Neurostimulation
The mind is a powerful thing! DREN will not only transforms your body with the most powerful fat burning thermogenic experience, it will also alter you mind and put you is a place you want to be "One Top of The World". There is no denying it Beta-Methoxy-PEA is very psycho-active and triggers a euphoric "feel good response". To further enhance DREN neuromudulator activity L-5-Hydroxytryptophan has also been added to the formula. L-5-Hydroxytryptophan is a naturally-occurring amino acid, a precursor to the neurotransmitter serotonin which is a monoamine neurotransmitter with feel good and appetite suppression properties. L-5-Hydroxtryptophan like Beta-Methoxy-PEA also passes through the blood brain barrier into the brain. It's psychoactive action are thought to be derived from its effect on serotonin synthesis in central nervous system tissue. It is believed that a high supply of L-5-Hydroxytryptophan causes the brain's serotonin-producing neurons to increase production leading to increased serotonin release. The serotoninergic system is known to modulate mood, emotion, sleep and appetite and thus is implicated in the control of numerous behavioral and physiological functions. L-5-Hydroxytryptophan helps to keep serotonin and norepinephrine levels in balance therefore increasing metabolism and fat loss through synergistic actions with other ingredients in DREN. The end result is an extreme "feel good"state of euphoria.
Clen will get you 5 to 10 in the state pen---DREN will get you RIPPED and Flipped!
Even hardcore ephedrine junkies who were popping 50 to 100mg per day in their ECA stacks consider the fat burning and euphoric effects of DREN to be extreme. The word on the street is DREN is like taking a hit of pure adrenaline stacked with ephedrine. The fact is, DREN (Drenbuterol) belongs to a powerful new class of compounds called mesolimbic beta agonist, which have extremely powerful fat burning and euphoric activity and should be taken with caution. DREN stimulates both metabolic and mesolimbic pathways for extreme thermogenic fat burning and neurotropic feel good sensory. Each DREN capsule provides the maximum 470mg dose of Drenbuterol and should only be administered once daily and should not be used with other stimulants. When take as directed, DREN will help potentiate thermogenic fat burning, increase energy levels, suppress appetite and illicit a state of heightened mental euphoria.

Chris Pine's 'Incredible Workout'? Ballet.
Chris Pine's 'Incredible' and 'Difficult' New Workout? Ballet.
The actor, 41, says he wishes he'd started the "strong" but "gentle" art form years ago.
By Philip Ellis Published: Apr 7, 2022
He might be one of Hollywood's four anointed Chrises, but Chris Pine is a slightly different kind of leading man to his namesakes. Dubbed "his generation's Robert Redford" just this week by Slate, you're more likely to find him going viral as an accidental book influencer than you are to see him posting his workouts to social media.
And when it comes to his workouts, Pine approaches things differently too: he just revealed that his "difficult" and "incredible" training regime currently revolves around ballet.
"I love it," he told People in a recent interview. "I wish I'd done it years ago. It's an incredible workout. I just find it so beautiful because you have to be so strong and kind of masculine, so to speak, but also very gentle and feminine with your arms and your hands. It's just a very difficult art form."
He's not wrong: while the word "ballet" might initially evoke images of tutus and pastels, the truth is that being a ballet dancer is akin to being a pro athlete much like a gymnast, with extraordinary levels of explosive power, flexibility and mobility, strength, and all-round aerobic fitness. And for male dancers, that also means being able to safely and repeatedly lift ballerinas in a way that appears both beautiful and effortless.
The physically punishing and mentally demanding nature of life as a pro ballet dancer has been well-trodden in pop culture, from the movie Black Swan to Netflix's Tiny Pretty Things to Megan Abbott's novel The Turnout, but as a form of leisurely exercise, the full-body benefits speak for themselves.
Pine went on to explain that "a couple things" first drew him to the art form, but that he was finally inspired to attend a ballet class when he saw the David LaChapelle-directed music video for the Hozier ballad 'Take Me to Church,' which features a striking solo performance by Russian dancer Sergei Polunin.
"I was like, 'Who is this guy?'" Pine said. "I was like, 'I want to look like that.' He's a ballet dancer. And I was like, 'I should take ballet.'"

"A Natural Algal Polyculture Outperforms an Assembled Polyculture in Wa" by Patrick K. Thomas, Gary P. Dunn et al.
Use of diverse algal polycultures could enhance the viability of mass algal cultivation by increasing the productivity and stability of production. However, there are multiple approaches for selecting productive polycultures, ranging from a synthetic ecology approach using carefully selected laboratory strains, to collection and cultivation of naturally occurring polycultures. In this study, we compared the performance of a systematically assembled and a naturally occurring polyculture under two conditions: 1) pilot-scale, semi-continuous culture conditions and 2) grazing and resource stress conditions. The naturally occurring polyculture had 25% higher mean biomass productivity and 19% higher N-removal efficiency than the assembled polyculture under semi-continuous culture. Differences became even more pronounced under grazing and resource stress conditions; mean biomass productivity was 60% higher in the naturally occurring polyculture when exposed to stress. Lipid and protein content (% dry mass) were significantly higher in the assembled polyculture, while carbohydrate content was higher in the naturally occurring polyculture. The naturally occurring polyculture maintained higher diversity than the assembled polyculture throughout the experiment, suggesting a greater degree of niche complementarity as a potential mechanism for differences in biomass yields and nutrient uptake. Our results show that systematically engineered algal communities may not always lead to greater productivity than algal communities found in nature per se. We suggest that future studies using polycultures assembled from lab strains should test them against those occurring naturally; collectively, this would both serve as a benchmark for progress in synthetic ecology and would test whether there are generalities in the performance of natural vs. assembled polycultures.

Q: $(.class).empty always missing one element enter code hereI am having a little problem with jquery.empty().
I have some Html Divs which look like below:

These Divs get filled up at run time with some Uls and Lis. They are basically used to show the errors. Now I am wiping out all the errors that it was showing before I do  a POST.
I use
$('ui-helper-hidden errorMessage').empty();
for that. Now, i fit is showing all three errors then it will wipe out two bue leave one. If it is showing only one error at the time then it will not be removed at all. I am not sure why class selection decides to leave one element behind all the times. Anyway, i tried to replicate the same behavior on Jsfiddler but it works fine. I am not able to find a clue on what might be wrong on my code. Any suggestions?
here is the fiddler link which works all file. Just my HTMl code does not work fine:
http://jsfiddle.net/g55Rs/3/

A: You are neither refering to a class nore an element identifier.
$('ui-helper-hidden errorMessage').empty();

To reference classes use the . and to use element identifiers use #.
In your case this will empty all the divs:
// Selecting all elements which have both classes
$('.ui-helper-hidden.errorMessage').empty();

DEMO - Empty all element which have both classes
I also added some element which only have one or the other class in the DEMO to show that they are not effected.


HomeChild CustodyMay I withhold visitation because my spouse will not pay child support?
Child support and visitation are two separate issues. A person cannot withhold visitation if child support is not being paid. If the court has ordered visitation, an attempt to violate the court orders could result in contempt. The proper way to deal with this is to file a motion with the court for contempt or enforcement of the order.

The other day I had the biggest craving for chocolate chunk cookies. I was coming home from a chilly walk along Lake Zurich and it seemed like the perfect afternoon pick-me-up to go with a cup of verbena tea. I started googling recipes which all called for gluten free flour and tons of butter - things I'm not a fan of for everyday treats (everything in moderation, right!) And I wanted these cookies to be absolutely acceptable as everyday treats. So I thought to myself, what am I doing googling recipes? I can just create one! And so the experimenting began - the cookies started off too oily, too thin, too crispy, too spread out, but after a bit of time, persistence, and many batches of gluten free chocolate chunk cookies, I hit the nail on the head. Guys, these are the best gluten free chocolate chunk cookies you will ever eat - in my opinion, at least!
They're made with simple ingredients - no need for a blend of 10 different gluten free flours including the white processed ones like white rice flour, cornstarch and potato starch. Instead, I made these beautiful cookies with large flake gluten free oats, almond flour and a bit of gluten free baking powder, plus some of my favourite baking spices (I will always be loyal to that vanilla powder, cinnamon and nutmeg combo). And that's it! The end result is a cookie that's tender on the inside, crispy around the edges and completely addictive. You may want to make a double batch - just sayin'!
My older sister gave me a great tip for these cookies - I told her I was having trouble with the cookies spreading too much, and she asked if I had tried putting them in the freezer. This step might seem a little annoying if you're in need of cookies, like fast, but it's essential for this recipe if you want a nice, thick and chewy cookie. It's worth the wait, and the best part is you could make a double batch and keep the uncooked cookies in the freezer ready for when that gluten free chocolate chunk cookie craving hits!
So here it is, my recipe for the best gluten free chocolate chunk cookies. I hope you enjoy them as much as we do around here!
These are, in my opinion, the best gluten free chocolate chunk cookies out there. They're made with almond flour, gluten free large flake oats and a little bit of gluten free baking powder, plus some spices. Don't skip out on the freezer step, otherwise you'll end up with a very crispy and spread out cookie. You may want to consider making a double batch and keeping a stash of the frozen dough balls in the freezer!
In a large mixing bowl, add the coconut oil and sugar and cream together until combined. Next whisk in the egg until incorporated, followed by the vanilla powder.
Add the ground almonds, gluten free large flake oats, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt to the bowl, and stir to combine using a wooden spoon. Next add in the chopped dark chocolate, and stir to combine.
Roll the dough using your hands into balls about the size of golf balls. Arrange in a container (or on a baking sheet with parchment paper or a baking mat if your freezer is big enough) and freeze for 30 + minutes. The uncooked dough balls can be kept in the freezer until you feel like baking cookies!
When you're ready to bake the cookies, preheat the oven to 175 degrees C | 375 Fahrenheit. Place a piece of parchment paper or a baking mat onto a baking tray, and arrange the dough balls on the tray. Bake for 12-14 minutes, until the edges and bottom of the cookies are golden but the centre is still tender.
Allow to cool before serving with a pot of herbal tea.
Makes 12 cookies. Can be kept at room temperature in a sealed container for a few days.


Justin Fields practices with the Bulldogs before the Sugar Bowl at Mercedes-Benz Superdome Saturday, Dec 29, 2018, in New Orleans.
ATHENS — Georgia quarterback Justin Fields has confirmed he is transferring to Ohio State.
The former Harrison High School star announced the news on Twitter Friday night.
"I've decided to transfer to Ohio State University where I will continue to pursue my undergraduate degree and play football for the Buckeyes," Fields said.
Fields is the sixth key Georgia player to leave the program Friday. Riley Ridley, Mecole Hardman, Isaac Nauta and Elijah Holyfield each declared for the 2019 NFL Draft. Freshman tight end Luke Ford announced he would be transferring to Illinois.
Fields' decision had been expected, as his name had been in the NCAA Transfer Portal since Dec. 18. He was the nation's No. 2 quarterback in the 2018 high school class and the No. 2 overall prospect.
Fields entered the year with high expectations, but he was never able to find consistent playing time. He appeared in 12 of the Bulldogs' 14 games this season. Fields did not start a game for Georgia this season, as he backed up sophomore Jake Fromm. Fields completed 27 of his 39 passes for 328 yards with four touchdowns and no interceptions and he also rushed 42 times for 266 yards and four touchdowns.
Fields is expected to apply to the NCAA for a hardship waiver, which, if granted, would make him eligible to play at Ohio State in 2019.
Multiple sources told DawgNation that the Bulldogs coaches have been aware of Fields' interest to transfer to Ohio State for more than two weeks. The only holdup was Fields wanting to make sure current Buckeyes QB Dwayne Haskins is indeed headed to the NFL.
Letterman Row reporter Jeremy Birmingham was the first to break the news that Fields has made his decision final after weeks of speculation that Ohio State was the most likely landing spot for Fields.
Georgia signee Dwan Mathis flipped his commitment from the Buckeyes to UGA after the Bulldogs staff reached out three days before the early signing day Dec. 16 and alerted him that Fields was likely headed to Ohio State.
Mathis told DawgNation on Thursday night that he was interested in Georgia during his visit in July of 2017, but he felt Fields would ultimately land there and UGA wouldn't be looking for a high-profile quarterback in the 2019 class.
But with Fields leaving Georgia, Mathis recognized the opportunity to attend the school he fell in love with during that summer visit, and he was receptive when Georgia offensive coaches James Coley and Jim Chaney reached out to offer him a scholarship on signing day.
Mathis has been told he's positioned to be the No. 2 quarterback on the roster behind starter Jake Fromm, provided he progresses as expected in spring drills. Mathis completed four online classes in addition to his classes at Oak Park (Mich.) High School so he could enroll in January.
Georgia also signed Stetson Bennett, a walk-on with the Bulldogs in 2017 who transferred to Jones Community College after that season. The undersized Bennett (6-foot, 172 pounds) completed 145 of his 259 passes (56 percent) for 1,840 yards with 16 touchdowns and 14 interceptions.
Fields said after brief playing time in the SEC Championship game Dec. 1 that he appreciated his time at Georgia.
"I feel like coming here kind of I could have probably went some other places, but I feel like coming here has definitely made me a better QB," Fields said. "I feel like coming here like I didn't want it to be handed to me like some other schools would have had. So I came here, and I'm just going to keep working.


Smarter advertising is needed... whether you're managing a multi-million dollar marketing budget or scraping ad campaigns together with pennies.
Many of the pricey ads that appear in Times Square or during the Super Bowl get a lot of attention. However, their cost doesn't determine their success.
By thinking creatively & taking advantage of advancing technology, smaller brands on limited budgets can enjoy the same positive results as bigger players.
Get inspired by smaller brand strategies below, and see how their ads compare to recent big-budget favorites.
The market for European clubs managing youth soccer academies in China is booming, for now. The industry is organized to one day disappear, but in how long?


RUTHLESS bandits pounced on unsuspecting motorists stuck in traffic in Rio de Janeiro.
With just eight days to go before the start of the Olympics in Brazil on 5 August, lawlessness on Rio's streets appears rampant.
And tourists are being warned to be on the alert for trawler gangs following cars on motorbikes and attacking when the vehicle comes to a halt.
Security cameras captured the shocking moment three robbers wearing crash helmets, pulled open car doors and pointed guns at defenceless drivers caught in an evening traffic jam in Flamengo, the South Zone of Rio.
It's believed one motorist was wrenched out of his vehicle and robbed, but a tree obscures the full attack.
However, seconds later, the recording clearly shows another criminal tugging on the locked door of the car behind while pointing his weapon.
The terrified driver opens the door, climbs out with his hands up and kneels down on the floor.
But that's not enough for the thug who kicks and forces the man to lie down with his arms above his head on the tarmac.
While that gangster goes off to continue his mugging spree, another comes up and takes over.
The villain rummages through the victim's pocket.
He then checks inside the car and forces the owner to get up and to hand over his keys to the vehicle.
Without looking back the driver walks away as the bandit runs off to help his accomplice who is assaulting another motorist a few cars ahead in the queue.
The incident happened in one of the busiest neighbourhoods in Rio on Tuesday, around 7.30pm.
At least eight drivers were robbed of their money and possessions, and one car stolen.
According to reports, the criminals were following a couple of vehicles and launched their attack as the cars stopped at red lights.
Two women passing by with children were so frightened they hastily entered a nearby building for protection.
The crime shocked locals who live and work in the area.
Many angrily complained that despite all the heavily armed security forces drafted into protect Rio during the Olympics, not one policeman was available when the terrifying assault happened.
A police spokesperson said an investigation into the incident is underway.
