Simple food. Good company. A comfortable place.
Is it any wonder that "soul" and "soup" differ by only one, final letter? I'm sitting here on this grey … chilly … dreary … January … did I mention, grey? … day and just the thought of leftover soup in the refrigerator makes me feel better. It's warm (or in my case, hot). It's colorful. It's hearty. It's ready in 2-3 minutes.
No, it didn't come from a can. This is what happens when you do a little food prep on the weekend. A few days ago, I braised about 5 pounds of beef roast for French Dip sandwiches. That is a lot of beef for two people! By the time we finished our sandwiches and had a second round of sandwiches the next day, we were ready for Act II and Act III: soup and quesadillas!
More to come soon on the quesadillas … I was experimenting and it turned out so good I will definitely share soon.
The beautiful thing about braising is it creates the perfect scenario for soup. There's the leftover meat as well as the leftover broth and maybe even vegetables. Half the work is done! In this case, I removed enough of the sliced beef to equal 2-3 cups of diced/pulled meat in the soup and most of the broth. What was left of the sliced meat and broth went back in the refrigerator for the quesadillas.
A little chopping … a few more spices and herbs … some canned tomatoes or tomato juice … a good simmer … one day to rest … voilà! Lunch or dinner is served!
Me? I am just as happy as can be with a bowl of soup and some crackers. I am just like my mom … the broth is our favorite part of the soup. My dad, however, was one of those types that would crush up enough saltines in his soup to turn it into a … oh, I don't know … chowder, maybe? Let's just say there was no danger of him dripping any soup on his shirt.
If that sounds like you, or if you just really want to up your presentation game, these beer bread bowls might do the trick!
These four "bowls" were made with one batch of the recipe divided into four mini-pie pans (the disposable aluminum kind). A half teaspoon of black pepper and a quarter cup of Parmesan cheese was added to the dough for a little extra flavor. Each pan was sprayed with cooking spray and the loaves were baked for 25-30 minutes until golden brown (a little olive oil or butter drizzled on top of the dough will brown them even more) and set in the middle. Once they were cool enough to handle, a cone shape was cut out of each and the bread inside was scraped out to make a nice bowl. Save the inside bread pieces for bread crumbs or croutons, or to eat along side the soup.
Combine first 10 ingredients (through thyme) in a dutch oven or stock pot. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until vegetables are tender (10-15 minutes). Stir in beef, lima beans or peas, and green beans. Return to a boil. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Refrigerate overnight for best results. Remove bay leaf before serving.
Reheat desired amount when ready to serve.
NOTE: Fresh green beans can be substituted for canned.
Add the fresh beans with the other fresh vegetables.
It was mentioned today that here in Iowa we have not seen the sun for about 10 days. Looking at the forecast, it will be two or three days until we even get a glimpse of that vitamin D fortified celestial body. Until then, we will turn to other sources to warm our souls and lift our spirits.
Pure comfort … in a bowl.

Pros: Browser Integration, Automatic Syncing of data through iCloud, Dropbox or locally over Wi-Fi, 1Password Watchtower, Strong Password Generator, etc.
Cons: Sometimes support for android devices doesn't seem user-friendly.
Overall: 1Password for Mac competently brings you both security and convenience of functioning, it supports major web browsers and it includes multiple and shared vaults.
1Password is popular password manager software especially in mac user community. It was developed by AgileBits, and first released in year 2006. It works beyond the simple password management by integrating its functionality directly with your web browser. This allows you to quickly log in to different websites, fill registration forms, enter information of credit cards, and quite easily generate secured passwords. 1Password for Mac creates strong and unique passwords for all of your websites and hence it helps you to log in with a single tap. Its working procedure is simple that offers convenient security. 1Password for Mac provides the easiest method to protect you from password reuse, password memory loss and data breaches.
1Password for Mac can show all your items that include weak, old and duplicate passwords so that you can easily decide which one to reinforce and update. It gives a quick look at the strength of each Login password and then it updates them in the most secure manner. With the reused passwords security of your system will be at bigger risk and 1Pasword for Mac saves you from such risks by quickly finding duplicate passwords and then replacing them with strong and unique passwords. It stores all your passwords in an encrypted database file and you only need to know the password of that database file. If you do not remember that then you are also assisted with a random password generator that secures your local storage with a 256-bit authentication system.
1Password for Mac is basically a three-part solution as it has a main application which works as the central depository for your passwords. Then it has a mini version of the menu bar and the last part of this triad is one with whom you most interact with i.e. browser extension. This extension is also available for Safari, Firefox Chrome, and Opera as well. Just by right clicking to the contextual menu you will have most options of the full 1Password software. The functionality of interface of the main application is quite easy to use and it will also seem quite familiar if you have ever used a 3-pane mail or RSS app. It has been updated from 1Password 3 with a little more color and allot more features such as integration of cloud and Favorites.
The feature of 1Password Watchtower keeps you informed about your security as it checks your Logins for known vulnerabilities and then tells you about the need of new passwords for some sites. It is a service that recognizes websites that are vulnerable to Heartbleed and then it suggests which sites need to have their passwords changed to be properly secured. Heartbleed is basically a problem in OpenSSL which is a software library used for securing your communication by most of the websites. 1Password for Mac's 1Passwod Watchtower is a free service and once you enable it either under Security Audit or as a preventive measure it will competently alert you if website is found to be at any risk.
The support section of 1Password for Mac's company website comprises a high-quality manual and that is why it is better in offering real support to its customers compared to its competitors. The online customer care center lets you see your orders and licenses in the most convenient manner. You will also be allowed to update your registration information if necessary. You can directly access support personnel with the help of email services which is quite normal for the industry but additionally you can communicate with the publisher of 1Password or AgileBits, through Facebook or Twitter. All the blogs available on company's site are well written and explain all the technical security topics in easily accessible and appropriate manner.
Working of 1Password for Mac is quite simple and it offers convenient security. It efficiently creates strong and unique passwords for all your accounts and helps you in login just with a click. It integrates directly all the main browsers and also allows you to automatically fill long forms, shopping carts quite easily. It saves your wallet space by storing things such as your social security number, app passwords, reward programs, and so forth. With the help of this you can keep using your favorite browser or even you can switch amongst browsers whenever you wish and bring all your identities, passwords, credit card information or other credentials quite easily. It's a competent password manager for all your on-line and off-line work.

Chamber of Commerce, Civil Dialog, Ethics, General Plan Update
Molever the Malevolent 2
Loren Molover, obviously hasn't heeded the Mark Twain admonition: "Never miss an opportunity to shut up."
Or the time-tested axiom, "Better to keep your mouth shut and let others think you are an idiot, than to open it and remove all doubt."
In his Scottsdale Republic column today, Molever whines that the four people toward whom he was abusive, that they are a, "small, concerted, organized faction." Funny, that sounds like Molever, Rick Kidder, Joe Galli, John Hink, and Wendy Springborn.
I love Molever's comment:
I, for one, have never objected to their opinions. Rather, I value the diversity of opinions.
He may value "opinions," but Molever clearly doesn't value facts or the truth. He dismisses the attempts of Jim Heitel, Howard Myers, Ned O'Hearn, and Copper Phillips to have a fact-based discussion about city planning issues as "irrelevant."
As an astute ScottsdaleTrails reader has oft observed, Mr. Molever is entitled to his "opinion," but not his own set of facts.
You should take him up on his offer and review the meeting audio where he rants and raves at the four who resigned. I'll remind you that he was railing against fellow task force members who simply wanted to correct the minutes from the previous meeting before approving them! You'll have no doubt why Loren Molever was once being prosecuted by the City of Scottsdale for criminal intimidation.
Ex-task-force members have been disingenuous
Group tried to hijack General Plan process
Out of 25 members of the city's 2014 General Plan Task Force, four members recently quit when their methods and motives were called into question by some, including me, one of the volunteer task-force members. Then, these four began an effort to discredit the process and, most assuredly, they will ultimately use their own resignations to try to discredit the plan itself. Contrary to the impression being generated by these four, they are not a majority of the task-force members being questioned by a few. Rather, they are a small minority being questioned by the many.
And, despite their protestations, these four were not mistreated in any way. Contrary to their hollow claims — belied by the record of these recorded meetings to which anyone can listen — they were not disrespected. And, they were not forced to resign. They quit when they didn't get their way. Plain and simple. This concerted resignation would be nothing more than an example of immaturity if it were not more likely an insidious step in a malicious course of action to undermine the General Plan now in progress.
The fantasy these folks and their few, but vocal, supporters have promulgated is as imaginative as any Tolkien story. When complaining about the comments in opposition to their scheme, they use words like "tirade" and "tantrum" when those who have attended the meetings know that these claims are not merely false, but ridiculous. I find it difficult to understand how one could make such a claim and then look into the eyes of those present who know the truth.
The reality is that these four are a small, concerted, organized faction, who simply met with opposition. And, I, for one, have never objected to their opinions. Rather, I value the diversity of opinions.
But, everyone should be opposed and appalled by their disingenuous attempts to hijack the process, bogging it down with submissions of "white papers" consisting of self-serving opinions and arguments, peppered with enough (often irrelevant) facts to allow them to feign surprise when anyone questioned either these positions or their efforts to wrestle the process toward their minority views in a transparent effort to micro-manage our City Council.
Meanwhile, the remaining task-force volunteers will work in good faith to prepare a workable General Plan for our City.
Loren Molever is a member of the Scottsdale General Plan Task Force.

David Peterson Expelled 2: Korte calls Kirby a "Bitch"
Hidden Letters to the Editor: Scottsdale's Vision
To paraphrase Paul Newman in "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid": "Who is this guy?"
Usually when there is a controversy in Scottsdale, I have at least heard of the people involved but I don't know this impersonator of Rasputin the Mad Monk. From his comments perhaps he should become "No Mo" lever and do a disappearing act.
Look up the audio of the 1`/6/14 meeting. Go to 35 minutes and listen to Moelv er tell his vellow members they are a sham and a farce. Big bully should be made to resign..
Loren Molever says:
I thought I would give this article and the negative comments the response that they deserve……
That was it.

Miss Sharon Jones! Tribute Screening
(Barbara Kopple, US, 2015, 94 min)
Miss Sharon Jones! captures the irrepressible spirit of a true giant of the music world. Sharon Jones's powerful, energetic performances often (deservedly) drew comparison to James Brown. But despite her incredible talent and stage presence, Jones's music career struggled as she was kept in the wings by a music industry that branded her "too short, too black, too fat." After decades of working odd jobs, she had a career breakthrough in middle-age, joining forces with Brooklyn R&B outfit The Dap-Kings.
In 2013, on the eve of the release of her much-anticipated album Give the People What They Want, Sharon was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. This triumphant, crowd-pleasing documentary followed Ms. Jones through the most intense and courageous year of her life, as she battled back from cancer diagnosis and treatment to center stage.
She will be missed and remembered through her music.


Miraculous Surgery, Kudos to Goodrich and his team.
It is nothing short of a miracle, a wonder of modern medical science, a monumental achievement by a team of doctors who after twenty-seven hours in surgery at the Children's Hospital at Montefiore Medical Center in the Bronx, New York City, which began on Thursday morning and ended Friday have successfully managed to separate conjoined twins at the head.
The twins, Anais and Jadon Mcdonald born 13 months ago were joined at the head but not anymore.They have been separated and can now live normal lives.
For the parents, Christian and Nicole McDonald it was a euphoric moment but they kept their emotions in check as the boys were wheeled out of surgery, Jadon first at 7.40am with his wrapped in a gauze and taken to the Pediatric intensive care on the 10th floor, followed by Anais 5 hours later.
Conjoined twins separated: Inside the operating room Dr. James Goodrich, seated center left, leads a surgical team as they prepare to separate conjoined 13-month-old twins, Jadon and Anias McDonald, at the Children's Hospital at Montefiore Medical Center in the Bronx on Thursday.
Dr. James Goodrich, considered the leading expert on this type of surgery known as craniopagus surgery led the team which performed the operation on the twins.
It marked the seventh and longest separation surgery performed by Goodrich — and just the 59th craniopagus separation surgery in the world since 1952.
This was indeed a rare surgery and the decision to go ahead with was an agonizing dilemma for parents Nicole and Christian. The odds were stacked against them opting for the procedure even though it carried major risks, including the possibility of death or long-term brain damage for one or both boys. But not to operate also carried risks: 80% of twins joined at the head die of medical complications by age 2 if not separated according to studies.
The family was informed about the success of the operation at 3 am. The separation operation lasted 16 hours and several more hours to reconstruct the skulls of the boys. Goodrich informed the family of the separation around 3 a.m. "Well, we did it," Goodrich said.
Nicole took to facebook and wrote "TWO SEPARATE BABIES!!!…and she was extremely worried about the future, She said that she did not cry till the doctors left the room barely being able to say thank you. Her heart-rending and poignant story touched the hearts of millions of parents and children alike.
It was one of a kind surgical activity. The medical team was venturing into uncharted territory uncertain but confident. It concerned the lives of two beautiful babies.
The next few months will be difficult for the family in terms of recovery. The parents' worries extend beyond the surgery; they wonder what happens in recovery.
Dr. Goodrich began his day by skipping breakfast and enjoying a single cappuccino. He performed his first craniopagus surgery, 12 years back and he's learned much since then, performing five other separation surgeries around the world, including Syrian twins in Saudi Arabia earlier this year.
Prior to the mid-1980s, it was accepted medical practice to sacrifice one child on the operating table to save the life of the other. Many times both babies died. If one child made it through surgery, he or she often suffered debilitating brain damage.
Goodrich has pioneered the field. He established the practice of performing the separation of craniopagus twins in several shorter stages, instead of one single operation lasting more than 50 hours.
His surgical cap embodies that philosophy: It's decorated with turtles. "Don't change what works," he says. "Ready to go". Within minutes, he and Dr. Oren Tepper — the plastic surgeon charged with reconstructing the boys' skulls and stitching their heads back together — go to the 10th floor to a corner room where Jadon and Anais are resting with their family.
The doctors exchange pleasantries with Mom, Dad, and other family members who crowd the room. Asked how he's feeling, Goodrich breaks out into a James Brown-like jig. "I feel good," he croons.
People like Goodrich and his brilliant team of neurosurgeons and neuroradiologists have given hope not only the Mcdonald's but to the entire world.
It is only prayed that their long sustained effort bears fruit and the two boys survive to live and healthy normal lives. May God grant and bless Goodrich and his team, Amen.


Here's a brief look at the proposed site plan and new Parramore Road extension and proposed site plan near I-295 West Beltway and Collins Road.
Come on, now. Technical Duval County location but if you know your area history you know Collins Road has always been Orange Park.
Damn good news for the area.
Finally...about time they add another Costco in Jacksonville.
Councilman Jim Love deserves a ton of credit for this news. For several years, he has been diligent and determined in making the economic case for the City of Jacksonville to support this initiative through infrastructure.
He helped a corporate conglomerate externalize their costs by building a pretty expensive road for them? Im not sure thats a credit insofar as New Urbanism is concerned Chris.
Touché. However, Costco was probably never going to build anywhere near Downtown. Jim showed leadership to make sure that the store was built in Jacksonville, which ensures that the jobs are in Duval County and the COJ realizes the resulting ad valorem and sales tax revenue.
I don't believe that a Costco would be a good fit for downtown or the neighborhoods surrounding it. Nevertheless, I also seriously doubt this particular site would have been a "make or break" for them finding a store location on the westside of town. A make or break for Love's district perhaps, but not a make or break for opening a store in an area that meets the chain's site selection criteria.
If there's a market with demographics that meet their requirements, they'd find a site with visibility on a corridor that works. Perhaps they'd redevelop a vacant Kmart location, replace an aging underutilized strip mall or end up along one of the several First Coast Expressway interchanges being built? This particular area of Collins is now suitable for this type of retail development because of the hundreds of millions poured into Parramore, BJP's Collins Road extensions and roadway widenings and FDOT's investment of a new interchange with I-295.
So what was once a pretty worthless piece of privately owned property is now a high profile commercial site for that particular land owner. Will the amount of ad valorem and sales tax revenue of new development ever add up to the infrastructure investment cost subsidized by the state and city? That remains to be seen but probably not, if we start factoring the costs associated with the long term maintenance of the new infrastructure. Unfortunately, I'm not sure we seriously track those type of economic numbers locally.
Good points as usual, Ennis. I passed two of the now-empty former K-Mart spaces last week and wondered how they might be revitalized. Those sites involve too much land and square footage to sit vacant for the long-term. But that is unfortunately the state of the Beach Blvd. and Blanding Blvd. locations at the present, at least as far as I can tell.
It is worth noting that the state and local roadway improvements you mention were long planned and not made for the sole purpose of attracting Costco. For example, Parramore Road was an uncompleted BJP project that fell below the line when sales tax revenues were lower than anticipated. See http://jacksonville.com/news/politics/2013-07-12/story/westside-landowner-waiting-construction-voters-approved-2000-better.
My basic point was that Costco could easily have decided to build that store outside of Duval County, thus directing the associated revenues elsewhere. Jim's leadership helped make sure they picked Jacksonville as the location.
Your notion about tracking the economic impact of infrastructure investment is an interesting one. It would also be useful to have the reverse data -- in other words, what are the economic impacts of the nation's multi-trillion dollar infrastructure backlog?
Yes, I agree that the reverse data would be useful. The BJP and FDOT road improvements also led to the Walmart across the street, so I also agree that they were not made for the sole purpose of attracting Costco. Overall, I just don't believe that it was either this particular site or no Costco for the westside of Jax. Their site selection criteria and market demographics for a single chain store location is radically different from the process of a city attempting to lure large manufacturers or corporate headquarters. Assuming there's a market for additional stores in Duval, they'd find a suitable location even without the surrounding road improvements, because the store would be serving a select area within the local market.
I see your point, but Costco may well have chosen another "suitable location" in northern Clay County. Though that placement would still have given Westside residents access to the store, it would not have provided the associated employment activity or ad valorem/sales tax revenue to the City of Jacksonville. While I believe in regional cooperation and would not begrudge our neighbors to the south any economic success -- in fact, there are probably ways we could work together for the benefit of both counties -- I am pleased to see the Costco, related jobs, and future revenue end up in Duval.
Of course, this all gets back to the point you made earlier. What is the total COJ infrastructure investment and what is the return on that investment over time? This might be a good test case for the tracking you envision.
Costco is essentially like a Sams or Walmart. I see them adding stores in Northern Clay and St. Johns Counties in the future, considering their booming population growth. I know Strong Towns ( http://www.strongtowns.org/the-growth-ponzi-scheme/ ) has conducted several studies in various cities across the country. Just about all of them show low density development not adquately covering the cost of the public infrastructure investment needed to create it. Since portions of Collins were expanded a decade ago, two better case studies might be SR 9B and the First Coast Expressway.
Stephen - Would it hurt you to extend a bit of kindness to Jim every now and then?
I don't believe that a Costco would be a good fit for downtown or the neighborhoods surrounding it.
Not enough population density, especially downtown. Meanwhile Argyle and Oakleaf continue to build new houses at a torrid pace.
I just received a flyer in the mail. Costco West Jacksonville opening Thursday, February 8, at 8 a.m.
I don't know about yall, but it seems like that area is already oversaturated with smaller restaurants and shops (many spaces which aren't filled and built yet). They have Walmart, Costco, the Collins Plaza shops by Gate (with Salsas, Jersey Mikes etc); the Starbucks area (with A&T etc) and the unbuilt Collins Town Center (across the street near Costco). They seems like way too much retail esp being not far from the Blanding corridor, and the Oakleaf area down the road.

Mathematics is a crucial part of everyday life and plays a vital role in many jobs. It is also essential to science, technology and engineering, and there is a huge demand for mathematical specialists. It is therefore fundamentally important to ensure that all pupils have the best possible mathematics education. They need to understand the mathematics they learn so they can be creative in solving problems, as well as being confident and fluent in developing and using the mathematical skills so valued in the world of industry and higher education.
As a faculty, we strive to create an atmosphere which stimulates a high level of curiosity about maths and encourages students. We consistently share good practice to ensure that our students feel safe, supported and challenged in their learning. We aim to equip our pupils with the skills and confidence to become active citizens.
In Year 7, pupils start a maths mastery course which involves them learning a focused part of the curriculum each half term in depth. Students are encouraged to consolidate and strengthen skills through a variety of different resources. Students are encouraged to stretch themselves and a high standard is expected at all times. Pupils are set according to their maths ability, and this setting is reviewed regularly.
In Year 8, pupils build on the skills learnt in year 7. Pupils are set according to their maths ability, and this setting is reviewed regularly. They regularly are presented with problem solving questions to ready them for their GCSE course.
We teach a three year GCSE course and pupils begin this in year 9. They are tested regularly throughout using formal and informal testing methods to aid their readiness for the linear exams. Students are given opportunities to expand and enhance their skills and apply these in a variety of contexts.


COLUMBUS, Ohio – Abie Ehimwenman's bronze medal in the long jump highlighted the first day of competition at the 2013 Big Ten Indoor Championships for the Ohio State women's track and field team.
Ehimwenman cleared 5.93m (19-5.50) to pick up six of the nine team points on the day for the Buckeyes. The Distance Medley relay earned the other three points with a sixth-place finish. As a team, Ohio State sits in 10th place through six events at the end of day one.
In preliminary action, multiple Buckeyes qualified for championship events. Highlights included a new school record in the 800m by Katie Borchers (2:07.05), three qualifiers in both the 60m and 60m hurdles, and an impressive personal-best time in the 600m from Janel Olberding (1:30.86).
Three Buckeyes qualified for the championship race on Saturday: Christienne Linton (7.48), Ashlee Abraham (7.48) and Adenike Pedro (7.49). Abraham and Pedro finished second and third, respectively, in heat one (sixth and ninth overall), while Linton was the runner-up in the third heat and fifth overall. Morolake Akinosun of Illinois turned in the top preliminary time (7.34).
Ohio State advanced three athletes to Saturday's final: Alexandria Johnson (seventh, 8.52), Linton (eighth, 8.55) and Alexis Franklin (ninth, 8.62). Breeana Coleman of Illinois was the top qualifier, finishing with a time of 8.20.
Winning her section in a season-best time of 24.07, Aisha Cavin placed third overall in the 200m preliminary heats. Ashley Spencer of Illinois holds the top time heading into Saturday's championship race (23.47).
Cavin and Johnson also qualified for the 400m finals. Cavin placed first in her heat and second overall in a season-best time of 54.17. Johnson finished second in her heat and seventh overall in a personal-best time of 54.66. Spencer of Illinois turned in the top run of the day, crossing the finish line in 53.83.
Olberding's PR – the third-best 600m time in school history – vaulted her to a win in her heat and fifth-place finish overall. Samantha Murphy qualified first overall in 1:28.87.
Borchers won her heat and finished with the third fastest time of the day (2:07.05, 21st in Division I this season). Michigan's Rebecca Addison topped the field in the prelim, completing her race in 2:06.08.

We're over halfway now in our Happiness Club journey, entering into the DREAM of GREAT DREAM! What has been lovely is that we've all noticed how the things we started our experiment committing too (e.g. giving, relating etc) have dripped through to the subsequent months. So now we're still giving more, exercising more and so on because they've really become part of our daily lives, of who we are. But now we're starting to try new things and look forward with direction. In this blog I'm going to review our month of Appreciation and Trying Out as well as have a quick chat around the forthcoming month of Direction.
I love this title. One of the members explained how she took a minute or two to sit, with her boys, quietly, before leaving the house. We all know how busy we can be, especially in the morning before dashing out to school/work and this helped to create a sense of calm.
Anyone that has watched my presentation blog will know that this idea, 'all time is me time', has been a bit of a revelation for me. During the month of Appreciation it seemed even more apt. I made a real effort to appreciate whatever I was doing; washing up, making tea, working, exercising etc. I felt calm because I just focussed on the job in hand and didn't think that the point in which they were completed was where I wanted to be, right now was where I wanted to be!
Another club member loves this concept too and feels happier from thinking like this. She's mentioned it to other friends so it's having a real knock on effect.
A club member tried to eat mindfully during the month but it felt like quite a struggle. To still make the commitment to the month she changed her view from eating mindfully to mindfully buying the food to eat. This month she bought as much food sourced locally as possible and with the least carbon footprint. She shopped in different stores rather than one main supermarket and she said it really made her think about where the food had come from and appreciate it more!
One of the club members wrote thank you's at the end of each day J I also do this and it's such a lovely way to end a day and keep positivity in your heart.
Linked to mindful buying, one club member bought new ingredients as a result of trying to buy local food. This meant she'd been trying new recipes and enjoyed this a lot (has had her family).
Someone in the club used the month to be really inquisitive about everything!! The best example was at the opticians where she really asked 'What does that mean?' 'Why do my eyes look like that?' etc and the optician loved it and was really enthusiastic answering her questions and showing her examples! I am sure she brightened up his day.I'm going to show more interested in future!
I work for a Housing Association and any conferences I attend are usually very finance focussed. During the month I attended a conference about issues surrounding social housing more generally and it was really very interesting! It reignited my fire about why I wanted to work in the sector and helped me to see the bigger picture.
I love flowers! I always like to have fresh flowers in the house and do my best to arrange then in a vase. This month I learnt more about this and my flowers looked brilliant! They lived for almost 3 weeks too because I'd learnt the 30 second rule (when you trim the stems they very quickly seal up again, so you have about 30 seconds to get them in a vase of water otherwise you have to trim them again). I'm sure this is why some bouquets haven't lasted very long with me but they will from now on J The flowers brought me lots of joy!
I also learnt about hanging baskets! I enjoyed choosing the plants, planting them out and seeing them flourish.
There were some in the group who haven't really set specific goals for themselves before, or at least in the last few years, because life is busy.So the goals they would work towards are more generally day to day goals. These goals are more based around being aware of what needs doing that day and having a ticklist.Despite this, we had some good discussions around the Direction article.
Of the group, I think I was the proudest of my goal which I've recently met. I used to be very scared of doing a big presentation, to the point where I'd do anything to avoid it (including almost not going for a promotion in work!).I decided about 18 months ago that I would make myself do it! I didn't want to look back on my life having never faced this fear. After having some resilience training in work I committed to mindfulness and also read 'Feel the fear and do it anyway' by Susan Jeffers. I ended up wanting to do a presentation for the feeling I'd get afterwards. It was worth it! I felt really proud of myself and as if I'd taken control of my life and destiny back.
We think that one of the reasons people don't meet their goals is because they set too many, they set unrealistic timescales and their 'to-do' list is just too big! We talked about baby steps and looking at what time we actually have available, and what we could achieve in that time and decided that the goals we set for this month would be small, achievable and enjoyable!
Ways that we thought we have stuck to goals in the past despite challenges was pure determination, lots of resilience but also by asking for help when it's needed and lowering our standards. People tend to find it hard to delegate or ask for help because then things won't be done their way, but actually does that really matter? To the detriment of your own happiness?If we look at the bigger picture it's often better to ask for help and succeed than stubbornly stick with it and end up unhappy without really achieving anything!
To really focus on having fun with the children in the holidays and let the chores wait!
There will be more, a couple of club members are just thinking what will work best for them!!
I hope you've enjoyed reading my blog. Please do get in touch if you have any comments or questions.

Q: Theorem 4.6 from baby Rudin Theorem 4.6. In the situation given in Definition 4.5, assume also that $p$ is a limit point of $E$. Then $f$ continuous at $p$ if and only if $\lim \limits_{x\to p}f(x)=f(p)$.
Proof: Let $f$ continuous at $p$. Then for any $\varepsilon>0$ exists $\delta>0$ such that $d_Y(f(x),f(p))<\varepsilon$ for any $x\in E$ such that $d_X(x,p)<\delta$. Hence $d_Y(f(x),f(p))<\varepsilon$ is also true for any $x\in E$ such that $0<d_X(x,p)<\delta$ and $p$ is also limit point. Hence $\lim \limits_{x\to p}f(x)=f(p)$.
Let $\lim \limits_{x\to p}f(x)=f(p)$. Then for any $\varepsilon>0$ exists $\delta>0$ such that $d_Y(f(x),f(p))<\varepsilon$ for any $x\in E$ such that $0<d_X(x,p)<\delta$. But I can replace the last inequality to $d_X(x,p)<\delta$ because if $d_X(x,p)=0$ then $x=p$ and $p\in E$ and $d_Y(f(p),f(p))=0<\varepsilon$.
Is my proof true?
What would be if we consider that $p$ is isolated point of $E$?

A: Yes, your proof is correct.

What would be if we consider that p is isolated point of E?

Rudin already considers this right before Theorem 4.6.
"If $p$ is an isolated point of $E$, then our definition implies that every function
$f$ which has $E$ as its domain of definition is continuous at $p$.  For, no matter
which $\epsilon > 0$ we choose, we can pick $\delta > 0$ so that the only point $x \in E$ for which
$d_X(x,p) < \delta$ is $x = p$; then
$d_Y(f(x),f(p)) = 0 < \epsilon$. "

While it is good for the list of seven things to be as accurate as possible, the player's primary goal is to name items confidently so that they sound like real answers (because in a scene you may be playing an expert in a field you know nothing about) and to maintain the rhythm of the exercise. It is not uncommon for a player to have to make up items toward the end of the list, even when the category is not very esoteric. It is important that the group counts off as items are named, as players frequently keep going beyond seven items if left unchecked.
I have always played this as 3 things, but everything about it is the same otherwise. I wonder about re-titling it to somehow encompass the various number of things people might play it as? I couldn't find it at first because I looked for "three things".

While most of the country turned its attention toward Washington D.C. for the inauguration of the 45th President of the United States, back home in Texas, our Legislature was hard at work laying the foundation for a conservative legislative session and beginning the processes to ensure the needs of our citizens are met in the most efficient and effective ways possible.
The primary role of any legislative session is passing a budget. Unlike the Federal Government, here in Texas lawmakers must pass a balanced budget. This means that we're never spending more than we take in, but more importantly it means lawmakers must carefully consider spending decisions to provide taxpayers with the best possible government at the lowest possible cost. Luckily here in Texas we have strong conservative leadership and a Legislature that is committed to the fiscally responsible policies that have brought so much prosperity to the Lone Star State.
And the work has already begun.
Following my release of the Biennial Revenue Estimate or BRE, both the Texas Senate and the Texas House have released their early versions of our state budget. I mention the revenue estimate because it establishes how much revenue is available to lawmakers for general purpose spending.
The Senate and the House have each released initial budget numbers, but it is important to remember that these numbers are only starting points. There are significant differences in the two budgets and it is through reconciling those differences that the full Legislature will ultimately craft a final budget. Negotiations will be intense at times, I'm sure, but my office stands ready to assist lawmakers as they navigate this process.
Having served in both the House and Senate, I am confident that my former colleagues will produce a budget that meets our needs, but does so with a commitment to efficiency and our state's overall fiscal health.
In the spirit of efficiency I also want to bring your attention to another bill my office is tracking closely. When I was sworn in as your State Comptroller, I promised to return this agency to its core principles and focus on its constitutional mission. Last session we made significant progress by working with the Legislature and Governor Abbott to move events trust fund programs out of my office and merge them with more appropriate programs in the Governor's economic development office.
This session we are continuing those efforts. Currently my office holds a voting position on the Texas Racing Commission. I don't see the regulation of horse and dog racing as a core function of my office, and so I am pleased to announce legislation has already been filed to remove my office from the commission and give the power to the Governor to appoint a more appropriate representative.
As always I hope this note has been informative, and if you know of a friend or family member who would enjoy these updates, please forward this along. And please let them know they can sign up here to get these updates sent to them directly.


IRS leader visited Obama 157 times, but they never discussed targeting Conservatives? Sure.
Yeah, it is only 157 times more than the previous Commissioner visited with President Bush in his last 4 years. And of course Obama learned about the targeting from the media.
Seriously, if you don't see the problem then you are part of the problem. Even if this was the only scandal in the Obama administration it would be worthy of impeachment.
But again, remember that the biggest issues we should emphasize here aren't Obama's incompetence, maliciousness, lying and law-breaking. The issues to emphasize are the dangers of expecting government to solve all of our problems and trusting it to be better than the free market to choose winners and losers. Point to the doctrine of original sin and how giving unchecked power to anyone is a bad idea.
Via Politics: Former IRS head visited Obama White House a staggering 157 times.
Even though we know at least two Senators pushed the IRS to target the left's political enemies, and despite the fact that White House council knew about it weeks – maybe months – before it appeared in the papers, the official line is that Obama learned of the IRS scandal only when it appeared in the media. He's a busy guy and, since the agents involved were just "low-level rogues," it was impossible for the President to hear about the targeted auditing of Tea Party groups.
It's not like he's being directly briefed by the head of the IRS on a regular basis. He has no time for that.
Except, for some reason, former IRS Commissioner Douglas Shulman was spending a staggering amount of time at the White House. According to a Daily Caller analysis of public records, he visited at least a whopping 157 times.
To put that in perspective, he enjoyed more White House visits that Secretaries of State Clinton and Kerry combined. He was there three times as often as Kathleen Sebelius, the HHS secretary who's been instrumental in the Obamacare fiasco. Heck, it's more than twice the number of appearances made by our resident gun-runner, Eric Holder.
This has been the best week in politics in the last 5 years. I'm not glad that the Obama administration did all these illegal and unethical things. We knew they were doing them (for those who actually research these sort of things, he did them long before running for President). But now the few excesses that have gone public are so egregious that even Socialists like Stewart can't deny them. If anyone thinks that the scandals are only limited to what we know about Benghazi, the IRS, AP, Fast and Furious, etc., then they are still part of the problem. (Oh, and the fact that they are still on the record for unrestricted, taxpayer-funded baby killing and their wildly anti-family and anti-Christian policies is no coincidence.) The administration is still trying out their Excuse of the Day (yesterday day was, "We're not corrupt, just incompetent!"). I think they are corrupt and incompetent, but whichever lane they pick we have a solid argument against them. Don't give up.
But this isn't just about Obama and his over-the-top corrupt administration, it is about big government. It is inherently inefficient and can't be trusted, so you must limit it. Don't run against Obama, run against big government and Liberalism.
P.S. How many of these scandals were President Bush's fault?!
If you don't know what I mean by referring to Cloward & Piven and still support Obama, you are a big part of the problem. You really need to expand your media horizons and stop trusting the Liberal media.
If you know what I mean by referring to Cloward & Piven and still support Obama, you are a big part of the problem.
The plan was revolting, but brilliant. Cloward & Piven taught that America could only be destroyed from within. Only by overwhelming the system with debt, welfare, and entitlements could capitalism and the America economy be destroyed. So the plan was to make a majority of Americans dependent on welfare, food stamps, disability, unemployment, and entitlements of all kinds. Then, under the weight of the debt, the system would implode and the economy collapse, bankrupting business owners (i.e. conservative donors). Americans would be brought to their knees, begging for big government to save them. Voila — you'd have a new system — socialism!
This is not a conspiracy theory. All the information is readily available in many sources, but the Liberal media refuses to report on it. Obama and Hillary were both deeply influenced by these strategies. It isn't that they are surprised that their policies aren't working, they know they won't work. At least they won't work to solve the problems people care about, like unemployment. They will work to destroy the country and pave the way for full-blown Socialism.
I would love to put polygraphs on the false teaching theological Liberals and see if they are ignorant of Cloward & Piven, which would be pretty bad, or if they know of the plan and approve of it, which would be even worse.

Video Game Leaks: The Long & Ignoble History
It's not the first time this has happened, and it most certainly won't be the last time. A reasonably complete build of Crysis 2 (reports suggest people have already beaten the game) leaked at the weekend, prompting Crytek, the game's developers, to release a statement saying that it, along with EA, the game's publisher, was "deeply disappointed by the news," and that it "encourage[s] fans to support the game and the development team by waiting and purchasing the final, polished game on 22nd March." The download clocks in a just less than 10GB.
It's also emerged that a build of Killzone 3 leaked at the weekend, but it's a monster of a download at 41GB. Surely the size alone will serve as a deterrent, no?
Marvel vs. Capcom 3, due for release tomorrow, has been floating around online for about a week now.
Notice a pattern?
It's the sad reality that "big" games leak all the time, oftentimes weeks ahead of their official release date. Crysis 2, and Killzone 3, and Marvel vs. Capcom 3, are merely the latest examples of a sorry trend in the exciting world of video games.
Probably the most [in]famous example of a big game leak is Half-Life 2 in 2003; calling that a "leak" is even a bit of a misnomer given the way in which the game got out there. That it wasn't all that playable is another caveat.
Remember Doom 3? An alpha build of the game leaked nearly two years before the game's release in 2004.
Consoles aren't exempt from big leaks, either. Halo 2 leaked nearly a month before its official release date back in 2004. Granted, it was a French-language version, but that didn't stop people from downloading, did it?
(If there's a silver lining here, it's that all of these games went onto great commercial success despite their having leaked so far in advance.)
More pertinent to the Crysis 2 leak will be the investigation into how it got out there. Given that developmental tools are included in the leak it's probably safe to say the leak wasn't merely a review copy given to a magazine or Web site.
My greatest fear here is that Crytek and EA will use this as an excuse to move away from PC development altogether. A sort of, "This is why you can't have nice things." It can't be too uplifting for the folks at Crytek to see thousands upon thousands of people seeding and leeching the game. It's like, come on, guys, the fact that we even bothered with a PC version at all says we care about the platform, and this is what you do? Thanks.

Domestic Violence in the American Society
7 pages (1672 words)
Sociology Social Issues Domestic Violence
In a country where democracy and freedom feature in everyday life, a sort of utopia is achievable. However, there have been increased cases relating to internal conflicts that grow into domestic violence cases in our neighborhoods. The spirit of individualism mainly guides Americans. However, statistics now show that this belief is responsible for most domestic cases. However, individualism is just a concept comprising of different reasons that lead to people turning violent. Among these components is the lack of parental involvement, misleading television shows and other motion pictures and also school bullying. Violence refers to the abusive use of force. Violence exists in the society because violence surrounds people. Hence, it is likely to occur in one's daily life. According to renowned researcher Arnold Goldstein, these factors are the main reason many Americans perform cruel and brutality acts towards other people. There are also undeniable consequences that result from domestic violence especially to women and children. This paper examines the ways in which domestic violence has turned into a humanitarian crisis by explaining areas in which the vice has become rampant that many people especially the youth need to be aware of.
If this sample essay on"Domestic Violence in the American Society" doesn't help,
However, I have developed a reason to believe that domestic violence which happens in the presence of children is greatly responsible for the many violence cases today. This is because children who are victimized by domestic abuse, unlike their stable peers' families, are highly likely also to turn into violent individuals once they get older. Based on individual experiences, I have been able to observe that boys tend to express their anxiety more externally and aggressively toward other people which in most cases results in violence (Husso, Marita, et al., 348). As a result, the same gender has developed notions that suggest one can use violence to solve a problem. The likelihood of kids resorting to violence increases when they are immersed in a domestically violent environment.
The most common type of domestic violence happens in the home environment especially in the form of battering. This occurs when a husband beats his wife up especially while drunk or after having a stressful day (Dartnall, Elizabeth, and Rachel Jewkes, 5). This kind of battering can be extended even to the children depending on the kind of temper the husband exhibits. However, there is also the separate case of child abuse which occurs when parents neglect their children hence cause unnecessary physical or emotional harm to the child intentionally. The second main form of abuse occurs in the school environment. It is only right that I note that today, the likelihood of any disagreement among students being settled using a given weapon or a fistfight is on the rise. Those who attribute this kind of behavior to poor parental supervision may be missing out on the case of peer influence, which according to psychologists also contributes greatly towards many violence cases in school. Normally, the mindset that students develop once they get into the school is that bullying is a customary practice; hence, if other students are doing it, they can also do it.
Bias is another cause for many violence cases in a given area. This kind of violence is promoted by factors such as race, culture, or religion. This kind of violence related activity is evident even in the school environment although in most cases it happens in the open streets. Other cases in which this kind of violence has emanated from is in the athletic sector. Over time, black football and baseball athletes have received lots of criticism and discriminative statements from their teammates and fans in different measures. However, what many people do not realize is that due to the same reasons, these black athletes and especially those in the junior category suffer a lot of physical abuse from rival teams and teammates who do not wish to have them on their team. In many sporting clubs, those in charge have placed strict regulatory policies against athletes who have a knack for fighting black teammates. However, in situations where violence cases do not occur in public, the same officials have a tendency of covering up for those who committed abuse practices (Adubato, Beth, 119). This according to psychologists is obviously done for the sake of securing a club's status on a championship table as well as to avoid losing invaluable talent.
Due to exposure to violent individuals, be it their parents or teammates, athletes and especially those in the football category have developed the habit of taking out their anger on their spouses(Dartnall, Elizabeth, and Rachel Jewkes, 6). Recent domestic violence statistics show that intimate violence in the NFL accounts for twenty percent of non-fatal violent crimes against women. According to similar statistics, it is evident that these NFL athletes commit such violent acts due to their inability to handle their very extravagant lifestyles. Normally, when young footballs turn into professional footballers, they receive massive attention as well as wealth. This kind of burden brings along many instances of stress which the athletes take out in any form given they have adequate resources (Adubato, Beth, 99). The probability of these athletes committing adultery also goes higher. If a given athlete cannot explain his external partaking to his wife, in most cases, this results in violence, and it is easy enough to understand who gets hurt in the end.
In similar cases, athletes are provoked to act violently when they begin suspecting queer behavior in their wives. Since football athletes have their most fulfilling experiences in the field, they tend to extend the same kind of activity in the home environment. They instill fear in their opponents by playing in extreme and fearful ways. By physically abusing their spouses, therefore, they believe in doing so, they will quit doing certain things because they will develop some fear of their husbands.
The least common cause of violence is that exhibited in television. On average, children watch at least three to four hours of daily television. It is therefore not surprising to find children mimicking someone they watched on TV whose character was either violent or criminal-like. Since many of today's television programs are violent, children, as well as teenagers, have gradually accepted violence as a way through which they can solve problems by imitating moves and skills they watched on television. Excessive watching of this kind of programs, therefore, can only cause greater and even highly intended aggressiveness among teenagers. The main reason behind this is the level of high-tech equipment being used currently which makes violent programs seem very realistic. The impact television violence has on children today may not be that evident, but it is going to be in the future.
The problem of lack of awareness and physical situations such as pregnancy makes it even simpler for men to execute abusive practices. The kind of background a lady grows up in has also contributed significantly towards the kind of respect their spouses grant them. Women who come from humble backgrounds are found to suffer significantly from domestic abuse because most of them cannot defend themselves accordingly or maybe because they fill inferior to their spouses. The fact that their men provide for the family and provide the needed attention creates some form belief among women that they do not deserve to be exposed for their inappropriate behavior. Therefore, adult women would rather cope independently, seek support from their partners rather than go through the stress of thinking about their physical abuse. The increasing number of women who are being killed or committing suicide must be taken seriously if the rising rates of violence are to be dissolved. There are damaging cycles that remain in both the females and males as a result of multi-generational violence (Glaser, Danya, 869). The idea of psychological help can, however, aid in bringing about increased awareness on human rights as well as treatment methods to avoid future abuse. This way, men, and women can learn how to make use of both new and healthy coping skills that affect them due to the lack of improved education as well as social disparity.
Society has reduced the domestic violence problem to a simple socio-criminal problem. Victims of domestic violence should receive appropriate social support and awareness services while those who are abusive are punished (Buzawa, Eve S., Carl G. Buzawa, and Evan D. Stark, 1). Many humanitarians have raised concern about the absence of psychiatrists and psychologists from this landscape. The existing structure may be committed, but it does not adequately address the pharmacologic needs of victims. With the help of doctors, deeper studies can be conducted regarding the psychological dimensions that perpetuate the patterns that make up violent relationships. Realizing the entire scope of the domestic violence problem is just one among man steps. The challenge regarding the manner in which to treat violent perpetrators remains undefined. However, it is the mandate of the criminal justice system to punish violent behavior and so is that of psychiatrists and psychologists to put aside judgment statements and study such human behavior for the sake of domestic violence victims.
Domestic violence is a problematic issue in American society, which must be understood and researched appropriately to prevent further abuse. It is a humanitarian issue which is as much an individual effort as it is a government responsibility. The government can control its spread by toughening the laws that involve violence in society.

Q: Unable to append a circle on Google Map using d3 I am trying to append a circle from the first level JSON object into a Google Map (which was described in here) using the following code:
layer_01.selectAll("svg")
        .data(data_[0]) // 1st level JSON
        .each(Transform)
        .enter()
            .append("svg")
            .each(Transform)
            .attr("class", "marker")
            .append("circle")
            .classed("bubble", true)
            .attr("r", 6)
            .attr("cx", padding_01)
            .attr("cy", padding_01)
            .style("fill", "#696969");

but it does not get generated. I have tried looking at various posting at StackOverflow but none of those solves the issue. Does anyone have the solution to this?
This is the JSON dataset:
[
  {
    "Longitude": -121.914321,
    "Latitude": 37.88168,
    "Result List": [

      {
        "Latitude": 38.896564,
        "Score": 3,
        "Longitude": -121.076889
      },
      {
        "Latitude": 37.520431,
        "Score": 2,
        "Longitude": -121.817997
      }
    ]
  }
]
