We the people of the United States of America love classical music. The White House has been filled with music of all kinds through every presidential administration. Classical music is so much a part of our nation's history that the director emerita of the White House Historical Association, Elise K. Kirk, is a musicologist who literally wrote the book on the subject: Music at the White House: A History of the American Spirit. Here's a look at some of the classical music and musicians that have been heard at the White House throughout history, arranged by administration, much of which draws upon research by Kirk.
One of the most musical members of the Washington family was George and Martha's granddaughter, Eleanor Parke Custis Lewis, known as Nelly. What music did Nelly perform at the White House? A volume of Nelly's keyboard music contains J.C. Bach's Six Sonatas for Clavecin or Pianoforte, Op. 18. Considering that George and Martha paid for her music lessons, we can guess Nelly might've played a little J.C. Bach during visits to the White House.
One of the most musical presidents, no doubt, was Thomas Jefferson, who played the violin. His own music library contained over 100 collections of compositions, including concertos by Corelli and Vivaldi, as well as sonatas by Corelli, Martini, Campioni, and Boccherini. He also had arrangements to Handel's opera and oratorio overtures in 8 parts. Though some of the pieces in the collection were unnamed, unattributed, or had incomplete information, we do know that he had copies of Vivaldi's La stravaganza.
Dolley Madison, apparently, was the hostess with the mostess. She made musical provisions for the White House, acquiring its first piano and collection of music. Some of the most interesting items in the music collections are issues of Madame Le Pelletier's Journal of Music. Though the journal presented a variety of music, some of it was composed by Madame Le Pelletier, making her one of the first American women to have original music published in print.
By the time James Monroe came to office, one European musical trend that became popular a century earlier finally made its way to the White House; Janissary music. Though Europeans had contact with the Ottoman Empire for hundreds of years, there was a particular vogue for Ottomon elements in music at the beginning of the 18th century. During Monroe's time as president, the Marine Band acquired instruments like the bass drum, bugle horn, cymbals, and serpent, which could have conjured up sounds similar to what Janissaries might've marched to in the Ottoman Empire.
Like other presidents before him, John Quincy Adams may have developed some of his tastes for music during his European travels. During a visit to Paris in 1815, we know he saw 29 operas in under 3 months, including works by Mozart, Gluck, Paisiello, and Cimarosa.
Apparently, Andrew Jackson enjoyed beautiful women as much as he enjoyed beautiful music. The ballerina Celeste Keppler paid him at least one visit, which was the subject of a caricature by H.R. Robinson in 1836.
While Celeste Keppler was all the rage during Jackson's administration, Martin Van Buren was taken with a different dancer: Fanny Elssler. She was known in particular for her performance of the "cachucha" dance, accompanied by castanets.
William Henry Harrison wasn't in office long enough to host many musical performances. But we do know that the Marine Band played the standard tune, "Hail to the Chief," which had been in the ensemble's repertoire for at least a decade, to honor Harrison.
The Francis Maria Scala Collection at the Library of Congress contains almost 350 compositions performed by the ensemble during the middle of the 19th century, including during Tyler's administration. We know from these records that the Marine Band played quite a bit of music from popular operas, including Donizetti's Lucia di Lammermoor. Other opera composers White House guests may have heard include Bellini, Rossini, Verdi, Meyerbeer, Offenbach, Verdi, and von Weber.
James Polk apparently did not allow dancing, card games, of "frivolity" at the White House. You can tell by the portrait of Sarah and James Polk that when music was heard at the White House, it was likely on solemn occasions. Though, there was one member of the family who was particularly musical: the First Lady, Sarah. She was educated at the Moravian Female Academy, where she received an arts education, including in music composition.
Taylor, like Harrison, wasn't in office very long. However, we do know that his military achievements inspired music, including the "Grand Triumphal March to Major General Zachary Taylor." The cover page to one edition of this piece shows Taylor attending a performance of the ballet Giselle in New Orleans.
The most musical member of the Fillmore family was the president's daughter, Mary Abigail. She played the harp, piano, and guitar. Some of her sheet music survives to this day in a collection of five volumes of music.
During Pierce's administration, the Marine Band began to change significantly through the efforts of Francis Scala. He worked his way up from Fife Major to Leader of the Band. Scala is credited with increasing the size of the ensemble, balancing the brass and woodwinds, and setting the "stage for the further developments which were accomplished under the leadership of John Philip Sousa," according to the Marine Band's website.
One of the most fascinating people to perform for James Buchanan was pianist Thomas Wiggins, known more commonly then and today as "Blind Tom." Wiggins was born into slavery though, because he was blind and could not perform the same tasks as other enslaved people, was permitted to learn music. He toured extensively throughout the United States and Europe, making a stop at the White House in 1857.
We know President Lincoln was a fan of the opera and attended productions of The Magic Flute, La dame blanche, Norma, A Masked Ball, and The Daughter of the Regiment. One of his favorite operatic excerpts, apparently, was the "Soldiers' Chorus" from Gounod's Faust. It's likely that the Marine Band would've played some of Lincoln's favorite opera tunes, considering it was still under the direction of Francis Scala, who was a prolific arranger (and an Italian himself).
We know some of what the Johnson family may have heard in the White House because of an album that belonged to their granddaughter, Belle Patterson. Her collection of sheet music has over two dozen pieces that help us understand musical tastes of the time, including two pieces from Robert Schumann's Kinderszenen, Op. 15.
During Grant's administration, the Marine Band became more active than ever. He required the band to play "for all the galas, receptions, banquets, serenades, and holidays," including for the first visit of a head of state, King Kalakaua of Hawaii. As in previous administrations, the band played arrangements of pieces from popular operas, the overture Rossini's William Tell included.
President Hayes hosted who may have been the first African American to perform at the White House: Marie "Selika" Williams. She was nicknamed the Queen of Staccato because of a particular style of coloratura for which she was known. Her performance on November 13, 1878 included works by Verdi, Thomas Moore, and Harrison Millard. Frederick Douglass attend the performance and introduced her to the audience.
James Garfield only served as presidents for a matter of months – barely enough time to unpack your sheet music! Though, we know his son Hal played the piano, and that he would occasionally listen to him play on a Bradbury piano in the Oval Room. The scene may have resembled one (pictured left) in which Secretary of the Interior Carl Schurz plays for President Hayes.
It's no surprise that Arthur was a fan of opera and vocal music, considering his wife Ellen was a contralto herself. Though he hosted several singers during his administration, some of the most remarkable were in the Fisk Jubilee Singers. Though African American musical traditions became popular through a variety of means during the 19th century, the Fisk Jubilee Singers did more than perhaps any other group to popularize African American spirituals.
The earliest preserved program from a White House performance was created during Harrison's administration, which fell between Cleveland's terms. The featured performers were contralto Annie Louise Powell, a singing group called the Schubert Quartet, and works for mandolin, guitar, and violin, who offered renditions of works by Handel and Verdi among others. Later, when Laura Schirmer-Mapelson, described in a program as a "prima donna of the principal European opera houses," visited the White House, the Harrisons heard more Handel, as well as arias by Donizetti and Gounod. One of the most remarkable performers to appear at the White House during his term, perhaps, was Matilda Sissieretta Joyner Jones. She was known to her fans as "Black Patti," since some considered her an African American version of the famous Adelina Patti.
The White House was more musical than ever under Roosevelt's administration. The piano manufacturer Steinway & Sons helped significantly. Not only did Steinway present a lavish instrument to White House in 1903, they helped arrange for internationally acclaimed artists to appear there, even covering their fees and expenses. One of the most famous pianists to visit the White House was also a statesman himself: Ignacy Jan Paderewski. He was not just an excellent pianist and composer, he was also the Prime Minister of Poland. In 1902, he performed a concert that included Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 and set of works by Chopin.
Taft enjoyed a variety of music, including grand opera. One of his favorite opera excerpts was the "Prize Song" from Wagner's Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg. One of the most famous performers he heard live was Luisa Tetrazzini, for whom some say the dish chicken Tetrazzini was created, though not at the White House. At least with the advent of recording technology, he could enjoy his favorite singers even if they weren't physically present to perform. One of his favorite recordings, was of La bohème featuring Enrico Caruso.
You may be familiar with the piano works of Enrique Granados. But did you know that he also wrote an opera, Goyescas, based on themes of his piano suite of the same name? It premiered at the Metropolitan Opera in 1916, which afforded him the opportunity to make a stop at the White House. There, he performed his Danza Valenciana for the Wilsons along with a Scarlatti sonata. (You can hear a recording of him play Scarlatti here.) Granados, unfortunately, died when sailing back to Europe.
Harding once said that he could play "every instrument but the slide trombone and the E-flat cornet." Whether or not that was true, we know that he did play one unique instrument: the sousaphone. The sousaphone was developed by none other than John Philip Sousa. When he retired from his position as Leader of the Marine Band, he wanted an instrument that would project sound over the band like an upright tuba, but that could be played while marching.
The Coolidge family certain loved music, and apparently one musician in particular: Sergei Rachmaninoff. The composer and pianist performed at the White House not once but three times between 1924 and 1927. Rachmaninoff performed his own works, his arrangements of works by other composers, as well as beloved classics by Chopin, Mendelssohn, and other Romantics.
Mildred Dillard was a close friend of first lady Lou Henry Hoover. Dillard performed at the White House three times during the Hoover administration. According to her 1983 obituary in the New York Times, Dillard performed for a total of five presidents. She was also credited with having the world's largest harp collection, and had over five dozen in her apartment and others in storage. She was also the founder of the American Harp Society.
Of all of the notable performers the Roosevelt family hosted, only one will have her face on U.S. currency: Marian Anderson. The contralto performed at the White House in 1936, years before her historical performance in front of the Lincoln Memorial. When Andseron was barred from performing at Daughters of the American Revolution (D.A.R.) Constitution Hall, Eleanor Roosevelt withdrew her membership from the D.A.R., stating: "I am in complete disagreement with the attitude taken in refusing Constitution Hall to a great artist … You had an opportunity to lead in an enlightened way and it seems to me that your organization has failed." Instead of performing at the hall, President Roosevelt, Walter White (NAACP executive secretary), and Sol Hurok (Anderson's manager), arranged for her to perform in front of the Lincoln Memorial for a crowd of approximately 75,000.
Before Truman went into politics, he thought he would be a concert pianist. But he stopped taking lessons as 15 saying, "My choice early in life was either to be a piano-player in a whorehouse, or a politician. And to tell the truth, there's hardly any difference." He played the piano for the rest of his life, however, including during his time at the White House and after. Some of his favorite tunes to tickle out on the ivory included Chopin's Waltz in Ab, Op. 42, Beethoven's Piano Concert No. 4 in G, and Johann Strauss's Blue Danube Waltz.
Eisenhower preferred American popular music to European classical traditions. However, he did invite pianist Artur Rubinstein to the White House in 1957. One of the most significant concerts that took place there during Eisenhower's administration, however, featured Leonard Bernstein. The great American conductor, composer, and musician performed Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue and a concerto by Mozart, with the New York Philharmonic accompanying.
The cultural impact John F. Kennedy had on America was great, though the time he spent in the White House brief. He hosted star singers such as Richard Tucker, Nedda Casei, Roberta Peters, Jerome Hines, and Robert Merrill, as well as large companies like Washington National Opera, New York City Center Light Opera Company, Opera Company of Boston, the Metropolitan Opera Studio, and American Ballet Theater. One famous cellist, Pablo Casals, performed for the Kennedys, though it wasn't his first time concertizing at the White House: he also played for the Roosevelts. His program for the Kennedys included works by Mendelssohn, François Couperin, and Schumann.
President Johnson was especially fond of pianist Van Cliburn. His wife once said, "We had a sort parochial pride in Van Cliburn From Texas." (Johnson, himself, was born and died in Stonewall, TX.) Lyndon Johnson wasn't the only president to invite him to perform, however. In later years, Cliburn would play for Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton. In 2003, he was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by George W. Bush, and in 2010, the National Medal of Arts by Barack Obama. He also performed for Condoleezza Rice's surprise 50th birthday party! If there's anything that Cliburn's career proves, it's that politicians on either side of the aisle enjoy good music!
Nixon famously said "I am not a crook." One thing he definitely was? A musician! He played the piano, saxophone, clarinet, violin, and accordion. In his memoirs, he wrote, "Playing the piano is a way of expressing oneself that is perhaps even more fulfilling than writing or speaking. In fact, I have always had two great – and still unfulfilled – ambitions; to direct a symphony orchestra and to play an organ in a cathedral. I think that to create great music is one of the highest aspirations man can set for himself." He often performed in the White House, and on one occasion, accompanied Pearl Bailey.
Jimmy Carter loved classical music. Apparently, his secretary Susan Clough was required to play classical music records for 8-10 hours a day! During his time in office, the White House hosted live performances by chamber groups including the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, Alexandria Quartet, Tokyo String Quartet, and Guarneri String Quartet, and soloists such as Rudolf Serkin, Robert White, Shirley Verret, Isaac Stern, and Andre Previn. One of Carter's biggest achievements – at least for classical music lovers – is working with PBS to develop a five-part series of performances taped at the White House including programs with Rostropovich, Leontyne Price, Baryshnikov, Segovia, and Vladimir Horowitz.
Considering that Reagan started his career in entertainment, it's no surprise that he and his wife Nancy were excellent entertainers at the White House. The Reagans hosted performances by singers Beverly Sills, Frederica von Stade, Anna Moffo, Madame Montserrat Caballe, Grace Bumbry, Jessye Norman, Marilyn Horne, Barbara Cook, violinists Itzhak Perlman and Isaac Stern, and pianists Ken Noda and Maritn Katz. He also welcomed conductors Zubin Mehta, who led the New York Philharmonic, and John Williams, who led the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Continuing a tradition that Carter started, Reagan filmed a series of "In Performance at the White House" programs for broadcast by PBS. It seems the name stuck, as the series continues to this day.
George H.W. Bush continued some of the traditions established by presidents who came before him, including broadcasting "In Performance at the White House" programs. Some notable musicians who performed at the White House during these years include cellist Mstislav Rostropovic, and violinists Itzhak Perlman and Isaac Stern. Bush also invited the Harlem Boys Choir to perform at the White House.
violinist Itzhak Perlman, cellist Yo-Yo Ma, clarinetist Anthony McGill, and pianist Gabriela Montero. Yo-Yo Ma has also performed at the White House. In 2010, he received the Presidential Medal of Freedom. He also serves on the president's Committee on the Arts and Humanities.
Opening next week at Lyric Opera is a musical theatre piece that sets the love story of Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" against a backdrop of gang culture in 1950s New York. We heard Nadine Sierra earlier this morning singing an aria from the show: "Somewhere". What are the composer and title of this work that premiered on Broadway in 1957, and for which Stephen Sondheim, then in his twenties, was lyricist?

I recently started using Mac Mineralize in Soft and Gentle as a highlighter. I have become a huge fan of this product.
It gives you a good amount of product without having to use a lot, so this can last you a while. It gives a soft, shimmery glow to your face that does not overpower and make you look like you have rolled in glitter.
In winter my skin tends to look dull and drab, but a few touches of this highlighter and I look soft and dewy, with a beautiful glow.
Besides that, it also works very well on enhancing the features we like the best. I apply it on the brow bone and under my eye to give emphasis to my eyes. I wear glasses, so I need extra help on enhancing my eyes.
It is on the pricey side but like I said you do not need a lot, so it can last a long time.
I give it 5/5! Great product and you will become addicted!

This is something totally different from what I normally share with you. I recently discovered this products from Lush, and because I like them so much I wanted to tell you something more about it.
This is a cuticle cream, it looks like this pot never gets empty, because it is so concentrated.
It smells like citrus and it is really nourishing for your cuticles, you can also use it for other dry spots on your body. I personally don't have dry cuticles but I like it to take extra care for my nails and hands.
This is my absolute favourite, this is some kind of really light facial scrub made from fresh almonds and lavender. Once you mix this scrub with a little bit of water it gets a creamy substantial. When you have used this, your face feels really fresh and soft.
This is a really thick hand cream, special for very dry hands.
I think this is a great hand cream to always have with you in your bag.
I prefer to take extra care for my hands, because you use them a lot and get into water, your hands need to bare a lot and often got forgotten to take care about.
I really like it that the products from Lush are fresh, organic and handmade.
Are you familiar with the products from Lush, do you have any favourites ?
Lemony flutter is zo fijn<3! Angels on a bare skin lijkt me ook erg fijn!
Ik vind Angels on bare skin echt een aanrader !
Ik kan echt niet zonder Lemony Flutter!

"The Consequences of Information Technology Control Weaknesses on Manag" by Chan Li, Gary F. Peters et al.
In this paper, we investigate the association between the strength of information technology controls over management information systems and the subsequent forecasting ability of the information produced by those systems. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 highlights the importance of information system controls by requiring management and auditors to report on the effectiveness of internal controls over the financial reporting component of the firm's management information systems. We hypothesize and find evidence that management forecasts are less accurate for firms with information technology material weaknesses in their financial reporting system than the forecasts for firms that do not have information technology material weaknesses. In addition, we find that this association appears to be driven by control weaknesses most directly related to data processing integrity. Our results support the contention that information technology controls, as a part of the management information system, affect the quality of the information produced by the system.

A love story (in pictures). Love is bigger than cancer. LOVE WINS.
The eulogy we wrote together and read together at Vanessa's celebration of life.
The current rapidly changing situation suggests we are in our last few days with Vanessa. Thank you so much for your continued support.
The individual cells in her body don't know they are, as a team, losing the war. Each little cell in Vanessa is constantly, valiantly fighting against the cancer. She is exhausted.

The delicate skin around the eye area is the thinnest skin on the face. As we begin to age, this skin becomes even thinner as collagen, elastin and skin hydration continue to degrade. Rubbing, blinking, diet, lack of sleep, allergies and sun exposure are just some of the factors resulting in lines and wrinkles, dark circles, puffiness and sensitivity. Eye Cream is the perfect solution, with ingredients designed to specially target and address all eye area concerns.
Apply a small amount to orbital rims of both eyes.

Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) are a promising source from which to derive distinct somatic cell types for in vitro or clinical use. Existent protocols for hepatic differentiation of hiPSCs are primarily based on 2D cultivation of the cells. In the present study, the authors investigated the generation of hiPSC-derived hepatocyte-like cells using two different 3D culture systems: A 3D scaffold-free microspheroid culture system and a 3D hollow-fiber perfusion bioreactor. The differentiation outcome in these 3D systems was compared with that in conventional 2D cultures, using primary human hepatocytes as a control. The evaluation was made based on specific mRNA expression, protein secretion, antigen expression and metabolic activity. The expression of α-fetoprotein was lower, while cytochrome P450 1A2 or 3A4 activities were higher in the 3D culture systems as compared with the 2D differentiation system. Cells differentiated in the 3D bioreactor showed an increased expression of albumin and hepatocyte nuclear factor 4α, as well as secretion of α-1-antitrypsin as compared with the 2D differentiation system, suggesting a higher degree of maturation. In contrast, the 3D scaffold-free microspheroid culture provides an easy and robust method to generate spheroids of a defined size for screening applications, while the bioreactor culture model provides an instrument for complex investigations under physiological-like conditions. In conclusion, the present study introduces two 3D culture systems for stem cell derived hepatic differentiation each demonstrating advantages for individual applications as well as benefits in comparison with 2D cultures.

"They had similarly killed his father in 2010," the note said, adding that "frustrated Naxalites are resorting to killing innocent tribals".
Suspected Maoists have killed one more person in Gadchiroli, taking the tally of civilians murdered by them to eight in the last 17 days.
In a statement, the Gadchiroli police identified the deceased as Anandrao Sattu Madavi (32), who was described as a police informer by the Maoists. He was taken away from Visagundi village in Bhamragad tahsil on Wednesday night by 10 to 15 members of Perimili Area Committee of CPI (Maoist) and was later shot dead, it added. The police, however, denied that Madavi was an informer. "They had similarly killed his father in 2010," the note said, adding that "frustrated Naxalites are resorting to killing innocent tribals".
On February 1, two persons, Nirmal Goswami and Samru Kosmi, were shot dead by Maoists near Markegaon in Dhanora tahsil. The current spate of killings had started with the Maoists gunning down three villagers from Kasnasur in Bhamragad tehsil on January 21, holding them responsible for last year's police ambush of 40 Maoists. Later, they had killed two more persons.

Indian Badminton in 2018: A Watershed Year for Female Shuttlers PV Sindhu, Saina Nehwal and Others
Badminton IANS Dec 29, 2018 03:38 PM IST
PV Sindhu | Saina Nehwal (Photo Credits: Twitter)
New Delhi, December 29: Indian badminton continued to move northwards in 2018, especially the women's singles players -- P.V. Sindhu and veteran Saina Nehwal -- as they dished out one stunning performance after another. While Sindhu extended her status as India's leading shuttler and shrugged off the 'choker' tag by winning the BWF World Tour Finals title, Saina bounced back in style from injuries to pocket a few titles. PV Sindhu, Saina Nehwal Remain Indian Badminton's Biggest Stars in Low on Titles 2018.
Sindhu was criticised despite a string of brilliant performances throughout the year. She was something of a juggernaut on the global stage, reaching the summit clash in the tournament after tournament, only to fall at the final hurdle. She had to settle for five silver medals in 2018, but the lack of a title haunted her every single day -- until she came good at the last tournament of the year.
The wait for gold ended when the 23-year-old went on to clinch the BWF World Finals title and answered her critics. On the other hand, the 28-year-old Saina, who struggled with consistency and fitness in 2017, grappled gallantly with a cramped schedule and went on to clinch few titles along with the runner-up finishes.
Saina won the gold medal at the Commonwealth Games followed by a bronze at the Asiad. She also reached the finals at the Indonesia Masters, Denmark Open and Syed Modi International.
A couple of male shuttlers also earned respect at the global stage. Sameer Verma won the Swiss Open Super 300, Syed Modi International Super 300 and the Hyderabad Open Super 100. He also entered the semi-finals of the World Tour Finals, his maiden appearance at the prestigious event. Sourabh Verma also returned from injury and participated in the Asiad. He also claimed the Dutch Open Super 100 event in October.
Promising junior player Lakshya Sen also made headlines, clinching the Asian Junior Championships title along with silver and bronze at the Youth Olympic Games and World Junior Championships respectively.
A major disappointment in the men's singles category was the experienced Kidambi Srikanth, who impressed in 2017. Srikanth failed to clinch any title in 2018, despite managing to enter the quarter-finals and semi-finals a few times.
There were good outings in the doubles section for India. Several pairs finished on the podium at the Commonwealth Games. Experienced player Ashwini Ponnappa along with N. Sikki Reddy settled for a bronze in mixed doubles while the men's duo of Chirag Shetty and Satwiksairaj Rankireddy became the first Indian men's doubles pair to bag a CWG silver.
Apart from this, the duo also won the Hyderabad Open Super 100 followed by a runners-up finish at the Syed Modi Super 300 tournament. Hopefully, this is just the beginning of a glorious era for Indian badminton, especially for Sindhu as she is in her early 20s is highly likely to improve and further flourish in the future.

Whoops. You labored over your soup all evening but then got distracted for a second and dumped in too much chili powder or chili sauce. Luckily, you don't have to write off the entire pot of vegetables and all your hours of work as a waste. There are several ways to reduce or remove spicy chili flavor from a pot of soup.
Spoon out any hot ingredients that you can, such as chili peppers or large chili flakes. If the shaker simply came off your bottle of chili pepper as you were trying to add a dash of spice, scoop out as much as you can before it dissolves into the soup.
Peel a potato and cut it into thick slices. Add the potato slices to the soup, simmer for five to 10 minutes, then remove the potato. As the potato cooks, it will absorb some of the spiciness. Heavy starch potatoes such as russets work best. Repeat the process with an additional potato if needed.
Pour in milk, cream or broth to the soup to dilute the chili flavor. Creamy dairy products are especially good at cooling an overly spicy soup.
Try adding a spoonful or two of sugar to smooth soups or 1 tbsp. peanut butter to thicker soups or to stews. Small amounts will not alter the character of the soup perceptibly but will reduce the heat level.
Squirt in a dash of lemon or lime juice. The acids in the juice will dull the heat.
Add more of the other ingredient of the soup, especially bland ones like noodles, beans or potatoes, or sweet ones like carrots or parsnips. If necessary, separate the soup into two batches and add more of every nonspicy ingredient.
Serve the soup with a carbohydrate like bread, crackers or tortilla chips to counteract the chilies. Offering your dinner guest a glass of milk or a sweet, noncarbonated beverage like iced tea will also help.
Garnish your soup with sour cream, cheese or cilantro. Any of these will reduce the level of heat.
If you're trying a new soup recipe and you're not sure how spicy it will be, add the chili pepper, chili sauce or fresh chilies in very small increments and taste it after it's cooked for a few minutes to evaluate the spiciness. It's a lot easier to add more heat than to take it out.

Cork teen smashes Irish women's record for Straits of Gibraltar swim
A Cork teenager has broken the Irish women's record for one of the world's toughest open-water swims.
Thu, 26 Jun, 2014 - 01:00
Eoin English
Rian Herlihy, 16, from Glounthane, completed the gruelling Straits of Gibraltar swim from Spain to Africa in a remarkable three hours and 41 minutes last Friday — shaving almost 25 minutes off fellow Cork woman Sarah Clifford's old record of four hours and four minutes.
Rian is now part of an elite club of fewer than 450 people who have, since 1928, completed the swim in togs only — without a wetsuit.
The Sunday's Well Swimming Club member was relaxing in Marbella yesterday with her proud mum Colette, and her coach and uncle, Diarmuid, who set the Irish men's record for the swim in 2007, a record he held for seven years.
"The last hour was so tough because I was tired and the current was against me. But I managed to up my average stroke per minute from 48 from the first three hours to about 52 or 54. "I was exhausted when I finished. I had to be dragged onto the boat. But I'm delighted."
Colette, a non-swimmer, said the entire family was thrilled.
"When I was on the boat starting out and saw the distance she had to go, I thought 'Oh my God', but I knew she was a fantastic swimmer," she said.
Rian's achievement is all the more remarkable given that she had to mix her training with studying for her Junior Cert at Ashton, and she also had her appendix removed earlier this year.
Rian set off from Tarifa, on the southern tip of Spain, in darkness just before 7am last Friday.
The straight-line distance is 17km, but due to the unpredictable weather, which can include extremely strong winds, strong currents, and fast-changing tides, swimmers can clock up to 22km as they battle the conditions.
The strait is included in the world's Seven Oceans challenge series.
Rian was accompanied by two boats — a lead boat which she followed, and a support boat from where Colette and Diarmuid cheered her on.
Rian stopped every 30 minutes for just 30 seconds to feed and to take on fluids, and had to tread water while her feed, attached to a fishing line, was thrown to her.
During the swim across one of the world's busiest shipping channels, she encountered ocean tankers and a tuna fishing-boat with fishing lines behind it, which she had to avoid. Dolphins circled close to her and she saw whales in the distance.
But as she approached Africa a very strong current threatened to derail her swim but she dug deep and reached landfall at Punta Cires, Morocco. She is due to return home next Monday. Rian took on the challenge to fundraise for children's charity, Barnardos, and has raised almost €1,500. Donations can be made on the Barnardos website.

Trendy geometric stencil pattern "Maze Runner" will make a stunning accent wall! It is also great for stenciling sisal rugs and floors and even works great for stenciling curtains! Our stencils bring stylish elegance to any room. Geometric wall stencils are just perfect for contemporary decor.
This stencil was named by Jen from the Four Marrs One Venus blog, who won our stenciling naming contest!
We offer this stencil pattern in 2 scales, large and small. Choose the large scale for larger rooms and rugs and the smaller one where a tighter scale is needed.
We find that it is not necessary to use spray adhesive with our stencils. However, if you want to minimize paint seepage or are using high contrasting colors, adhesive is very helpful (Elmer's spray adhesive seems to be the best). Make sure you shake the can well and lightly mist (not drench) the stencil, and let it dry for a moment before positioning it on the wall. This step will prevent the adhesive residue transferring to the wall. You'll need to re-mist the stencil after a few repeats. Clean-up tip: Spray the stencil with Simple Green to help to remove adhesive residue.
And make sure you watch our short step-by-step <ahref="how-to-stencil-videos.html" alt="how-to-stencil-video">Video Tutorials!


This is my favorite piece so far. This is a fully operational Dell Monitor made to look like a side-view mirror of a truck with a VW mini-bus floating in space in the reflection. There is some homage paid to one of my favorite stories The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, but the piece itself it is not meant to represent only that. I got the idea for this one while listening to the Grateful Dead while originally painting a simple universe like scene on the monitor. The rest just kept flowing out on it's own.
I have not sprayed the monitor with polyurethane or any other type of treatment so care will need to be taken to make sure NOT to wash this with anything, even water as it will remove the acrylic paint used. This is composed with a combination of acrylic paint applied with a brush and by finger painting. It's also got some Sharpie marker which I'm growing quite fond of using. Of course, there are quite a few little pieces of stuff from computers thrown in and a working watch that was about $300 when originally purchased, though this one is quite used and banged up, but fully functional. It's atomic and solar rechargeable. The list of features are too long to list here, but you can certainly see the brand and model and can look that up.
I'm still trying to work out how to mount this piece on a wall as it is meant to be mounted sideways to the wall. If you already have an idea and would like to purchase it, please email me below with an offer. I'll update this description when I figure out a way to include some sort of mount.

Eight bodies discovered as North Korean ghost ship washes onto Japanese beach
The boat was first spotted on Friday but the Japanese coast guard were only able to reach it on Monday.
By Neil Murphy
Updated December 1, 2017 14:57 GMT
Eight bodies were discovered aboard a vessel that was shipwrecked on a Japanese beach, authorities have confirmed.
The wooden ship was found washed ashore in the country's northern Aikita province. It had first been spotted on Friday but poor weather conditions had prevented the coast guard from reaching it until Monday morning (November 27).

According to the Japan Times, a 68-year-old woman witnessed coast guard workers carrying the remains onshore in stretchers. "I was surprised to see the boat in such a bad condition", she said. The bodies were in a state of advanced decomposition when they were found.
Authorities have speculated that the ship originated from North Korea, making it the latest boat to have arrived from the secretive state to Japanese shores.
Last Friday another fishing vessel was found at a marina 50km south of the latest discovery. Authorities say eight Korean-speaking men were found aboard a ship that had broken down and floated into Japanese waters. It is believed the fishermen have already returned to North Korea.

Earlier this month three men and seven bodies were found in two capsized boats on the Noto Peninsula in Ishikawa Prefecture. Empty boats with North Korean Hangul lettering have also been found in the Sea of Japan.
Last week Korean authorities released details of a high profile defection of a young North Korean soldier who crossed the heavily-guarded demilitarised zone. Dramatic video shows how the soldier used a jeep to flee from comrades under a hail of gunfire. He is now recovering in hospital after he suffered multiple gunshot wounds during his escape attempt.
Korean media reports claim pro-Western propaganda may have convinced him to make the dangerous escape to the South.

Saved Stories – None: Robert Mueller does rare interview in 'Oath' podcast – 95.5 WSB
NEW YORK — (AP) — Chuck Rosenberg makes no secret of his admiration for Robert Mueller.
Keep that in mind, along with the format of Rosenberg's podcast "The Oath," now that NBC announced that the former special counsel who looked into Russian interference in the 2016 election has given an extensive interview that debuts Wednesday.
Mueller, the ex-FBI director, rarely speaks publicly and has been virtually silent about his special counsel experience since testifying before Congress in July 2019.
In two separate podcast episodes, each nearly an hour, Mueller doesn't talk about his work as special counsel. He isn't even asked.
"There are some questions that you simply don't have to ask," said Rosenberg, who worked for Mueller as an FBI counsel. "I knew he wouldn't talk about it and I had really no intention of asking about it."
He took Mueller at his word that he wouldn't talk about his work as counsel after his testimony. Mueller made an exception in September, pushing back after one of his former prosecutors suggested in a book that the counsel's team wasn't aggressive enough.
Rosenberg's stance is consistent with the format of "The Oath," in which present and former government officials who have taken an oath to protect the Constitution are interviewed about their lives and careers, while steering clear of current events and political controversies.
Rosenberg, also a former federal prosecutor, has taken the oath nine times. He's been an analyst and podcast host for NBC News since quitting as acting head of the Drug Enforcement Administration in 2017, after President Donald Trump suggested to law enforcement officers that they "don't be too nice" to suspects in custody.
Even in an era of suspicion about the "deep state," or perhaps because of it, there has clearly been a public taste for "The Oath." The Mueller interview leads its fourth season.
The show has been in the Top 200 of the Apple Podcasts charts for more than a year, said Andy Bowers, co-founder of the podcast hosting company Megaphone.
Rosenberg's extensive experience helps with access, so his guest list is consistently interesting, said Benjamin Wittes, editor in chief of the Lawfare blog. He's also unapologetically earnest, as are many of his guests, at a time of cynicism.
"That's the winning formula on 'The Oath,' a serious person talking to serious people about public service at a time when people really want to remember what public service is supposed to be," Wittes said.
The Mueller interview is a bookend to Rosenberg's two-parter with Mueller's successor as FBI director, James Comey, in the podcast's first season.
The voluble Comey is a contrast to Mueller, who's quite comfortable with short answers. "I did OK," Mueller said when Rosenberg was trying to draw him out about commendations he received during training with the Marines.
Did you like law school? "Not particularly," Mueller said.
"Jim is a natural storyteller, so in some ways it is easier (to interview him)," Rosenberg said. "Bob also has a lot of stories to tell, you just have to let him tell them in his own way. I found that compelling — two very different styles, as our listeners will notice, but I think two men of substance."
Although there was talk after his congressional testimony that Mueller, now 76, had lost some sharpness with age, Rosenberg said "he seemed fine to me."
When coaxed, Mueller is most interesting in the first podcast talking about his experience in Vietnam. He volunteered for the Marines after a teammate on his Princeton lacrosse team was killed there, and commanded a unit that was — he found out later — essentially used as bait to draw out the North Vietnamese army.
The experience inspired a lifetime of public service, primarily because Mueller was grateful to have survived.
It's the type of service that's hard for the cynical to fathom. In another episode this season, Rosenberg speaks to Heather "Lucky" Penney, a former fighter pilot given the assignment on Sept. 11, 2001 of stopping United Airlines Flight 93 as it was bound for the U.S. Capitol. Since there was no time to arm the jet, her only choice was to ram the airliner; she was effectively sent on a suicide mission. Instead, the plane crashed in Pennsylvania after passengers overpowered the hijackers.
In the Mueller interview, Rosenberg said he relished the opportunity to get to know someone he knew only as a boss.
"There's a bit of a Marine Corps officer outer shell," he said. "He can be a little bit intimidating. But underneath all of that, he is a remarkably kind and humble and civil man. Coming up in the ranks of the Department of Justice, Bob Mueller is an icon. Everybody that I worked with knew of him and admired him, but often from a distance."
This story has been corrected to note that the podcast is debuting on Wednesday.

Royals fans, this place might look a little familiar to you.
You know your home is cool when it not only has its own estately title, but that title has a nickname. Such is the life of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who call Nottingham Cottage — or "Nott Cott" — home. The couple lives in the two-bedroom house, right within the grounds of Kensington Palace, leading some to wonder, will they move to grander digs once they're officially married on May 19?
It's a valid question, though for now, Nott Cott is and will be their home. Moving in before the big day lets them get settled into the space, making it their own before Markle's walk down the aisle.
If the cottage sounds familiar, that's because the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge lived there for about two and a half years, The Telegraph reported. The ceilings are so low, it's reported that Prince William had to stoop at times to avoid hitting his head. At 6-foot-1, Harry's two inches shorter than his older brother, but he still might have to watch out.
Beyond that, not much is known about what the interior of the cottage looks like. It was designed by the same architect who created St. Paul's Cathedral, Sir Christopher Wren, and it's rumored that it doesn't have air conditioning (which would make sense, given its age), so anyone who lives there has to set up fans to stay cool in the summer.
These descriptors — head-smackable ceilings, a lack of air conditioning — may not make it sound like a place fit for royalty, but the cottage has a certain bucolic charm to it. Former Nott Cott resident Marion Crawford wrote that it "looks as if it had got to London quite by mistake from some distant country place," in her 1950 memoir, The Little Princesses: The Story of the Queen's Childhood by Her Nanny, Marion Crawford.
It has its own garden, where Prince Harry reportedly strung up a hammock shortly after moving in, lending to that feeling of being away-from-it-all even when you're in the midst of bustling London — and not too far from the ever-present hum of paparazzi and tourists.


As our summer season comes to an end, question arise: "Is the fall still a fun time to come to Tybee? Is there still a lot to do? Are the restaurants still open? Can I still go to the beach?" The answers are a resounding "YES!". Here's why.
WHAT IS THERE TO DO IN THE OFF-SEASON?
Fabulous dolphin and sunset tours with Captain Mike as seen from the deck of a comfortable boat.
Do a Georgia Sea Kayak Tour. What a wonderful and relaxing way to see the uninhabited islands and natural waterways around Tybee.
Rent bikes from Tim's Beach Gear or Fat Tire Bikes. Tybee is 3 miles end to end and bikes are a wonderful way to see everything!
Tybee Golf carts! Slow down and enjoy the sights. Electric carts give our environment a break and most of our cottages have easy plug-in access.
The beach! Sunrises, morning walks or bike rides, midday sit-and-soak time, beautiful early evening walks and sunsets, or a moonlight stroll makes any time beach time!
See a birds eye view of our beautiful island from the top of the Tybee Island Lighthouse. Step across the street to walk thru the Museumand learn about Tybee's long history dating back to the 1500s and why we fly 7 flags!
Just about every month October- March there is a special parade or event! Piratefest, a huge Halloween block party, Christmas bike and boat parades, fireworks, Mardi Gras, St. Patrick's Day… there's family and group fun year round!
Most of the Island remains open for our visitors and Tybeeites alike. We are active year-round!
Huc-A-Poos is a huge local favorite with pizza, beer, fun, music, and a lively scene, lunch thru dinner, 7 days a week. And it's pet-friendly!
Sting Rays has the BEST fried local shrimp compared to just about anywhere! It is known as the home of blue crabs, beach music and beer. Live entertainment with indoor and outdoor seating.
McElwee's is a longstanding local favorite ~ we love the steak smothered with crabmeat and mushrooms! What a treat!
Dive right in to the Seafood Platter at The Crab Shack. They have the best sampler platter with broiled or steamed seafood. Let the little ones feed the alligators or visit the exotic bird habitat. It's 5 o'clock somewhere!
Key Lime Parrot is a great 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath family-friendly cottage minutes to the beach and across the street from kid-friendly Memorial Park which has a great playground, picnic and sports areas.
Honeymooning? What better way to start a new love than with Old Love Cottage! 99 1/2 handholding steps to the beach, it's the perfect couple getaway cottage.
Multi-family home? Southern Cross is perfect! 4 bedroom, 3 baths, 2 living rooms on two levels, lots of separate gathering areas for different family fun. It's perfect for several couples or two families or multi-generational families and is pet-friendly, too.

The Private House Stay's Guide
Edinburgh is the capital of Scotland but is a third of the population of Glasgow. Perversely the city has no motorway access to the South and since the local transport links are excellent the city and surrounding area can easily be accessed without a car, arriving by train or plane. The highest concentration of Scotland's major attractions are found within the city and surrounding area - Edinburgh being the top tourist destination in Britain outside of London because its attractions are mostly concentrated in a central area. For the purposes of this guide, the city centre and East Lothian are listed seperately and the Lothians are defined as mainly the areas to the North, South and West of the city.

1. The Lumineers. Kansas City Live. Kansas City Missouri. Friday, June 10, 2016.
Had not been a fan of the Lumineers for long, but when I heard they were playing in the Kansas City Power and Light District so close to the convention center, I know I had to try and get in. The venue was very strange. The audience stood in the middle of a ring of restaurants with the stage places up at one end.
I waited out front and finally I found a woman who sold me her $60 ticket for 20 bucks. The only song I really knew was "Hey Ho" which turned out to really be called "Ho Hey." Who knew.

At Graphisoft's North American BIM Conference this week in San Diego, the company announced the immediate availability of the next generation of its BIMx app for the Apple App Store. The brand new "BIMx Docs" function pack included in the new version provides access to full BIM projects containing the 2D documentation as well the 3D BIM model.
A new advanced "Hyper-model" technology provides full integration of 2D and 3D making navigation more intuitive, smoother and faster than most other construction-related model or documentation viewer mobile apps.
01 – BIMx Docs is a function pack for Graphisoft's BIMx and it packs a tremendous amount of new features and tools into the mobile BIM offering.
"BIMx Docs, with its Hyper-model capability, has the potential to fundamentally change the way people explore BIM projects on their touch screen devices, whether they're away from their office and/or don't have BIM training," said Akos Pfemeter, Director of Global Marketing at GRAPHISOFT. "The outstanding performance and smooth navigation we have achieved even on full-fledged, large scale BIM projects containing several hundreds of layouts that would virtually stop most PDF viewers is unmatched by any other mobile app when flying on BIMx on an iPhone/iPad," he continued.
Cloud Connection — With a direct link to the BIM project in the BIM authoring tool, BIMx Docs offers a smooth and easy communication workflow with stakeholders outside the office environment. Graphisoft's cloud-based BIMx Transfer Service makes sure you get the latest updates fast and in an effective way. In addition, this is a free project publication portal as well. Contractors get their own digital copy of the project that can be updated as needed, enabling site supervision and visualization of the details to on-site workers.
The new BIMx Docs function pack is already available on the Apple App Store. The basic BIMx app remains free. BIMx Docs function pack costs 4.99.USD for one project and 49.99.USD for unlimited number of projects.

This was a well-timed surprise for the Hungarian-based software leader, released as part of its first North American Graphisoft BIM Conference, which took place earlier this week. If the app works as smoothly as the movie demo does it will be quite an impressive tool in the hands of architects and AEC professionals working with BIM projects. The iPad is already the leading tablet computer in AEC by a landslide. The decision to keep pushing on the iOS front is hugely smart in our opinion.
An interesting question to ask is will this app utilize the 64-bit A7 processor? And the short answer now must be possibly. Clearly it runs on iPhones and iPads and the new A7 with 64-bit is so new that we would not be surprised at all to learn that a special version tweaked for the 64-bit A7 would need some additional time to code. We'll strive to learn more soon.
