Israel Today - Travel Video.
DVD. Worldwide Travel Films. 80 Minutes. Some people say Israel is a land as venerable as the bible and as vibrant as today's newspaper headlines. Accorded formal nation status in 1948, Israel is certainly a part of the world that has known uncommon turmoil for over 2,000 years - with alternate periods of calm and violence - and appears headed for more of the same. Their "Israel Today!" is a timely, new look at this tiny but vitally important place. The film was produced and the show is presented with a hope for peace and prosperity, which the vast majority of people in the region desperately desire and richly deserve. ? TEL AVIV - Israel's largest city with more than a million inhabitants and the country's largest resort with high rise hotels, fine restaurants, world class beach, sailing, ancient markets, internet cafes, modern universities, museums, gardens -- and traffic! Celebrate Independence Day and Memorial Day and visit nearby Jaffa. ? HERZLIYYA - Tour Israel's answer to California's Silicon Valley. Almost every high tech company in the world, including some born in Israel, operates in this rapidly growing town. ? NETANYA - Watch skilled artisans change rough diamonds into elegant jewelry at Netanya's National Diamond Center. ? CAESAREA - Walk in the footsteps of the conquering Romans and touch the ancient remains of their aqueducts and amphitheaters. ? KIBBUTZIM - Experience the laid back lifestyle of those who inhabit the kibbutz communities throughout Israel. Agriculture, education, the arts and religion are all part of the scene. ? ARMAGEDDON - Known alternately as Megiddo, this biblical site is where many people believe the final battle of civilization will be fought as the forces of "good" conquer the forces of "evil". ? AKKO - Besieged and influenced by everyone from the Visigoths to the Crusaders and beyond, this historic Arab town is a visual delight. ? HAIFA - See the country's second largest seaport, the Bahai faith's international headquarters, and Haifa's sculpture-laden Peace Park. Meet the person who created the sculptures. ? DRUZE VILLAGE - Admire the work of master weavers, meet the non-Muslim Arab inhabitants of Daliat-el-Carmel, and marvel at the beauty of a nearby nature reserve. ? NAZARETH - Visit the town where Jesus grew up and see Mary's Well, Basilica of the Annunciation, and Church of Jesus the Adolescent. ? SEA OF GALILEE - Sail on Israel's largest body of fresh water to visit some of Christianity's most important holy sites near Tiberias. ? HULA VALLEY - Learn about the conversion of a swamp into Israel's 10,000-acre "bread basket" and the reintroduction of once indigenous wildlife. ?

ELAT - Play on the beach and scuba dive in the crystal clear water of this increasingly popular and luxurious Red Sea resort. ?

BEER SHEBA - Absorb the sights and sounds of the weekly Bedouin market where you can bargain for sheep, camels, clothing and other treasures. ? DEAD SEA - Experience the curative powers of "black mud" and floating in the salty waters. And learn about the area's multi-billion dollar chemical mining industry. ? MASADA - Brave the 100-degree summer heat and climb to this desert fortress, 1,000 feet above the Dead Sea surface. Built by King Herod some 2,000 years ago, some believe this fortress was witness to the largest mass suicide in history. ? JERUSALEM - Compare and contrast the "old" and "new" parts of this ancient holy city, home to important shrines for all three of the world's monotheistic religions - Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Sites featured are Islam's Dome of the Rock and Al Aqsa Mosque, Christianity's Holy Sepulcher, Via Dolorosa and Garden Tomb, and Judaism's Second Temple, "Wailing Wall" and Yad Vashem. Other features include the gates of Jerusalem's Old City, the Arab market, Dead Sea Scrolls at the Israel Museum, the Knesset, and urban development in modern West Jerusalem. ? BETHLEHEM - Not officially recognized as being part of Israel today, the town where Jesus was supposedly born remains an important stop for any visitor to this sacred land. Attend mass at the Church of the Nativity and see the "crib" where Mary gave birth.
VHS. Worn smooth by time and bullet-scarred by the ravages of war, the Gates of Jerusalem have witnessed epic events, from the early invasion of Nebuchadnezzar's armies 3,000 years ago to the Six Day War of 1967. In that time, Jerusalem has been conquered on forty different occasions and destroyed eighteen times. This video tells the stories of the events and people who have passed through those gates, and explores the historic and spiritual significance of each gate to the ancient city. Artists' renderings and animated reconstructions, archival footage and photos help document the story. 2-Video Slipcase Set. 2 Hours.
Jerusalem: Within These Walls - Travel Video.
National Geographic. VHS. Within a square mile, enclosed by stone wall, live 26,000 people. Representing a multitude of nations, religions, and cultures, the people of this city rejoice in the historical and spiritual significance of their home--Jerusalem. National Geographic examines the lives of some of the residents in its 59-minute documentary. The area of the Old City is divided into four quarters--Jewish, Muslim, Christian, and Armenian--each of which surrounds an emblem of its culture: the Western Wall of the Second Temple, the Dome of the Rock mosque, the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, and the Cathedral of St. James. As the spiritual center of the three Western religions, Jerusalem may always be a city of tension and turmoil, yet its undeniable beauty and importance force people of differing beliefs to live side by side. Jews of 120 cultural backgrounds live in the Jewish quarter. The Zadok family immigrated from Yemen, where Jews faced tremendous persecution. In Israel they still hold onto many of their traditions, including elaborate wedding rituals, noted for their ornate finery. The video also introduces the third Jewish couple--a Belgian man and his sabra (a native-born Israeli) wife--to move into the Old City after its liberation from Jordan in the war of 1967. We then move to the Muslim quarter, where we meet a family who has lived in Jerusalem for 1,300 years. A young man embraces both tradition--as a furniture repairer--and modern life--as an actor on an Israeli Arabic TV show. In the Christian quarter, Father Timothy is presented, a Greek monk who has dedicated his life to serving the church that stands where Jesus was crucified. Finally, we meet an Armenian man, who escaped the holocaust of his own country, was sold into slavery, and finally was rescued by a Jerusalem orphanage. Telling a remarkable tale of survival, of both the city and her people, this video shows Jerusalem in all her splendor. 59 minutes.

Israel & The Palestinian Territories - Travel Video.
DVD. Globe Trekker. Planet Food is a true taste of the exotic! Follow our travellers as they take you on a culinary journey exploring food cultures in some of the world's most delicious destinations: from the world's biggest fish market in Japan to the bustling food markets beneath the Acropolis. Get behind-the-scenes info, features, food festivals and tasty insider tips. Just over 60 years old, Israel has a surprisingly diverse and rich food tradition which has been shaped by Jewish refugees arriving from all over the world. Traditionally people think of Falafel as Israel's national dish. Immigrants coming from Germany, Poland, Russia and its surrounding countries (known as shkenazi) and Jews from Spain and the Middle East (known as Sephardi) all brought a melting pot of their own Jewish cultural traditions mixed with cuisine from the country they were fleeing from to create the rich texture of what is Israeli cuisine today. In the West Bank and the Arab quarters of Jerusalem you can be sure to taste a wide ranging cuisine befitting of such a turbulent history of occupation. From traditional Middle Eastern concoctions of stewed lamb, rice, hummus and burghul-infused tabouleh salads, to the resplendent mezzes that make up Ottoman cooking, Palestinian eating habits really do betray a cosmopolitan outlook. In the second half of this Planet Food special, chef and global nomad Bobby Chinn, investigates whether there is an authentic Palestinian cuisine, or not. He explores Jerusalem, Jericho, Bethlehem and the administrative centre of Ramallah on his grand mission, taking time out to make a classic Ramadan dessert called 'Katayef' at the prestigious American Hotel in Jerusalem, a 'Makloubeh' lamb stew with Chef Jozeph Asfour (who has cooked for Pope Benedict) and a traditional, Middle Eastern dish called 'Musakhan' for a loving Christian Arab family. He also learns about the thriving agricultural landscape, visiting a Medjhoun date farm in the chalky deserts of Jericho, a woman's co-operative making the local cous cous called 'maftoul' and taking part in the olive harvest. Wherever Bobby roams he is greeted and feted by curious locals, tasting great food along the way, and above all, enjoying fantastic Arab hospitality in this little spoken about area of the Middle East.

Golgatha Israel - Travel Video.
DVD. Terra Mystica. 26 Minutes. How would Jesus be treated today? Would the same terrible words be used, "Crucify him!", shouted by an angry crowd. Ancient Christian texts record that the high priests demanded liberty for Barabas and death for Jesus. It is believed that Pontius Pilat asked the people which man should be spared and the crowd shouted, "Barabas!" When Pilat asked what he should do with Jesus they exclaimed, "Crucify Him!" The Cross soon became the symbol of a religious belief that now stretches across the world and symbolises the sacrifice made by Jesus for his fellow man and also the relationship that exists between Heaven and Earth. Located northeast of Jerusalem's Temple Mountain, Mount of Olive, played an important role in the life of Jesus. It was from there that He traveled into the city and at the foot of the mountain, in the garden of Gethsemane, was taken prisoner. The belief in Christ's Resurrection is an essential element in Christianity that is celebrated each year at Easter time. Golgatha Hill in Jerusalem has become a symbol of Christ's death and for Christians all over the world, the word Golgatha means not only the place of execution of their Saviour but it is also a pilgrimage destination and a reminder of Christ's sacrifice.

Women to watch at the Women in the World summit
It's only just started and already we're excited about today's Women in the World Summit.
By Hannah Gilchrist
We all know the power of Meryl Streep, but when paired with Hillary Clinton, Freida Pinto and Women for Women International's founder, Zainab Salbi, we have a sneaky feeling the 2015 Women in the World Summit is going to be a good 'un.
As if anyone needed proof, the opening night of the sixth annual summit brought together all of the above women plus a few noted additions including Robin Wright-Penn, Diane von Furstenberg and Thandie Newton. Now that's what we call a power summit.
Ok, so we're no strangers to celebrating women, (*cough cough* we're looking at you Red Women of the Year awards) but this time the Summit will be addressing issues affecting women from around the world, from 'jihadi brides' to Middle Eastern friendships.
'I promise you over the next three days you're going to meet some extraordinary women you've never met before,' said Tina Brown, the founder and CEO of Women in the World Summit. 'And also some women you know but haven't seen like this before.'
If it's anything like Hillary Clinton and Christine Lagarde in conversation at last year's summit, we're all ears.

How could I possibly follow-up my incredible years spent with the very special Engineers Without Borders Canada? That was the central question hanging in the back of my mind, even as I promised myself 'no pressure, take your time' over the past 5-months traveling the world with my partner Sari and our delightful now-9-month-old daughter Aliyah.
Reflection and spending time in other organizations has helped me see just how special EWB is — there's a greater concentration of world class people (smarts, skills and dedication) in EWB than I've seen anywhere else, and the organization is pushing the leading edge in a way that is courageous and necessary. What would come next professionally? What was a must have and what was a want to have?
My big realization was that I would be most fulfilled by joining another organization with a change-the-world sized mission. Another organization that cares not just about 'what' they are doing, but is also pioneering new models on 'how' we organize our companies and public benefit institutions. Another organization that builds communities and mobilizes people to unleash their potential.
I also wanted a broad set of responsibilities, but not another CEO or co-founder role right now. I wanted to be working alongside highly motivated people who I can learn from. And I wanted a sector that moves fast, that isn't "stuck" in the ways that international development can get stuck.
Believe it or not, there was a role and organizational combination out there that fit like a glove! I'm really excited to be joining Mozilla.
Most people know Mozilla for our web-browser Firefox. Some people might even know that Firefox is an open-source project, with thousands of volunteer contributors alongside staff. Fewer people know that Mozilla is a mission-driven, change the world, non-profit. We are promoters and protectors of an internet that is open and free, a hotbed of innovation, a platform for economic and social development, for bettering humanity.
Practically, we build great products and technologies (some that you see like Firefox, and some that you don't, like the standards that allow you to watch a video in your web-browser) that embed the values of Mozilla. For example, when you're using Firefox, you're not uploading your personal information like when you use Chrome — privacy and user agency are values we care about and are native to our products.
Beyond products, we also build educational resources and courses (for high skill and early web learners), do policy advocacy, help support people making technology for news organizations, help support people who are trying to bring open standards to science, develop tools and alliances and products to bring the web to the "bottom 2 billion", etc. Lots and lots!
So, what am I doing here? I got to create my own title and I've chosen "Participation Sherpa" (clearly a descriptive title versus hierarchical one): I think I'm beginning to know what that means!
As you can glean, there's a lot going on at Mozilla. With roughly 20,000 volunteers; another ~1+ million people participating in our education networks, developer networks, fellowships and advocacy work; and ~300 million product users, there are a lot of people involved. This interaction of people and impact is beautifully messy and has developed rather organically. But it's creaking in places. People are not getting as much value as they could from their interactions with Mozilla, and the mission is not benefiting as much as it could from their participation.
My role is to help Mozilla evolve this participation relationship by leading the architecture of a strategy, a new team and the cultural and structural elements that supports this. It means working on strategy and operations, working with people around the organization to run experiments, helping staff and volunteers optimize the way they are working (building communities, building participation opportunities), and learning from all the activity already going on. The exciting part is that I'm reaching into and implicated in literally every part of Mozilla.
Logistically I'm based in Toronto, for now! And it's a 6-month contract, for now!
I'm fired up and found a great first answer to "how do I follow-up my incredible years spent with the very special Engineers Without Borders Canada"!

According to 2020 Census data, women make 83 cents for every dollar made by a man in a similar position. That's an average 17 percent wage difference. It's a frustrating commentary; even at the starting line, women are already behind their men counterparts in their ability to set money aside for their future.
So, what can women do to begin to catch up?
Start when you can with what you have
When you get your first paycheck or direct deposit receipt, your actual take-home pay may leave you feeling underwhelmed. Or, maybe you'll feel overwhelmed, like Morgan Small did. "It was surreal to get that first paycheck," remembers Small, a senior business analytics consultant in PNC's Technology group. "I didn't know what to do with it."
After pre-tax deductions, the amount you're left with needs to cover housing, groceries, fuel or transportation expenses, and, hopefully, some discretionary fund money for travel, dinner with friends or shopping. But other important items to add into the equation are savings for an emergency fund and investing for retirement through a Roth IRA or a 401K if it's available to you.
How much should you set aside?
Melodie (MJ) Roach, financial advisor at PNC, works with women and men of all ages to help them plan for financial success. "Start with your emergency fund," she says. "Put 10 percent away if you can, because if something happens to your job, you need to be able to take care of yourself."
When you're early in your career, you might feel that saving for retirement isn't as important as what's needed here and now. Small, who started with PNC after college graduation in 2016, started building a nest egg right away by having money automatically deducted from her paycheck and distributed into an emergency fund and her 401K. Having it taken out in advance made it easier to put away. "If I didn't see it, then it wasn't ever there," she says.
Additional opportunities to save
Roach sees a difference in how women of different generations prepare for retirement. "Women 50 and older focused on retirement savings vehicles like the 401(k) or IRA, both of which have embedded tax savings opportunities, whereas women in their twenties and thirties are very focused on opening investment accounts, or in investment clubs," says Roach.
Small, a millennial, confirms Roach's point, as she has been investing on her own since 2020 through a popular stock trading and investing app. "I wanted to be hands-on when I started investing so I could focus on areas that are important to me, like technology."
What if you've got debt?
Even if you have significant school loans or credit card debt, you still have options. Small recalls how she used her credit card "like every other college kid, and didn't even think about it." Now she advises friends in that position to open a high-yield savings account and put whatever you can in it from each paycheck. Roach agrees: "You have to pay yourself, regardless of credit card debt or loans."

Local Couple Competes On "Cake Boss" Buddy Valastro's Show
Baking a cake in four hours that would normally take two days. That was the challenge for a Hempfield couple who go up against another baking couple on national TV.
Baking a cake in four hours that would normally take two days was stressful enough. Having the most popular cake-maker in the world judge it just about put the anxiety meter over the top. That's what Randy and Gigi Thomas experienced when they competed on Cake Boss Buddy Valastro's new Discovery Family show "Bake it Like Buddy." The Thomas' episode airs Saturday at 9pm.
Gigi, who own Gigi's Signature Bakery in Hempfield, brought Randy along to the show's baking studios in Jersey City for an episode that pitted two couples in a competition to create the best wedding cake.
Both agreed the experience was intense. "They give you about 15 minutes to familiarize yourself with the bakery," explained Randy in an interview with Larry Richert and John Shumway on KDKA radio. "Then they say 'the clock starts and we don't stop it until it gets down to zero' for any reason." It was a lot of pressure!
"There's going to be a lot of editing. I'm known to be pretty creative with my language!" Randy Thomas, "Bake Like Buddy" contestant
The couple isn't allowed to say much until their episode airs. But they say they used a unique cake flavor they'd never tried before, and the cake is an ambitious two-tiered, carved masterpiece. "When you get there they give you a theme, and ours was 'til death do us part," explained Randy with a chuckle. The couple was to make a decorated cake, in four hours, that reflected their marriage. "And we're both still alive, that should say something," joked Gigi, as Randy interjected "but it was pretty close to 'til death do us part!" The skulls on the cake in the picture below gives you an idea that the Thomas' took the "death" part of the theme literally!

Mike Conley picks the Cavaliers to win the NBA title
Good guy Mike Conley to give 500 Grizzlies fans free tickets to ... - usatoday.com
Memphis point guard Mike Conley has made his pick for the 2017 championship, he's going with the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Mike Conley picks the Cavaliers to win the NBA title - Video
Memphis Grizzlies high paid point guard Mike Conley has spoken up about his predictions for the rest of the 2017 NBA playoffs. During a segment on Sports Center, Conley discussed the inevitable third straight finals face-off between the Cavaliers and the Warriors. And like many other have predicted, Conley believes the two powerhouses will meet each other in the NBA Finals.
Mike Conley has his best season in 2016-17, he averaged a career-high 20.5 points per game, 6.3 assists per game, 3.5 rebounds per game and 1.3 steals per game.
He did this on 46% shooting and 40.8% from downtown in 69 games for the Memphis Grizzlies. He led his team to the 7th seed in the Western Conference but fell to the San Antonio Spurs in the first round, although not without a fight.
Mike Conley talks LeBron's dominance, and championship prediction
Mike Conley discussed the insane level of play that King James is performing at right now in the 2017 playoffs.
This being a huge reason for the Cavaliers success and their hopes at winning a second straight NBA championship. Conley said:
"I like LeBron right now, I do. I like what he's doing... he wants his legacy to be known as a guy who wants to take down super teams and win consecutive championships and doing it the way he is doing it. He is dominant right now, and I just don't see anybody stopping him at this point."
Mike also was asked the question of Cleveland's chances at beating the super team of Golden State that features superstars such as Kevin Durant, Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green.
Cleveland Cavaliers Golden State Warriors
It seems a very tall task to beat this team, but Conley still gives Cleveland the advantage. Stating:
"They learned a lot from last years series. (Don't) Forget, they've got Kyrie, they've got JR, they've got Tristan down low, they added Deron Williams, they got depth. Their bench is gonna have to play big in order for them to do it, but having a leader like LeBron that's gonna prepare them for it, I just have to go with them."
So if the inevitable happens, and the Cleveland Cavaliers face off against the Golden State Warriors once again for the third straight time in the finals. It should be something special to watch.
Cavaliers and Warriors are just dominating
Both the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Golden State Warriors have started the 2017 playoffs with an insane record of 10-0. Sweeping their first two series' a perfect 4-0 and starting the conference finals with a record of 2-0. It very much seems like we will be seeing them up against one another in June.
The ratings will be higher than ever, as this will be the most anticipated NBA Finals in recent memory.
But if Conley is correct, LeBron could do something special, and his legacy will have him as arguably the greatest of all time.

I doubt Marilyn Monroe was anything but a confused star-struck drug-using individual with some gifts and talents that the Kennedy boys enjoyed. But she may have been so obsessed with them that she would have threatened to tell some of what she knew and she did have the attention of the people and media. There was a general lack of knowledge about the nature of JFK's drug use and sexual shenanigans even after his death. It would not surprise me if this was managed and agreed to, or asked for by the Kennedy clan. They still value their image even though Old Joe has been exposed on Arts & Entertainment. Maybe Maria Shriver and Arnold will make a run for the Presidency. It is important to note that Mary Jo Kopechne figures into the issue in a big way however. Maybe she intended to leak a lot more about the Kennedy clan.
"Smathers also betrayed JFK over Marilyn Monroe. According to Sarah Churchill's recently published book, The Many Lives of Marilyn Monroe (2004), it was Smathers who first leaked the story to the press about the affair. The story first appeared in an article by Dorothy Kilgallen the day before Monroe died (Kilgallen was herself to die in similar circumstances as Monroe on 8th November, 1965).
Why should Smathers do this? One possibility is that Smathers was trying to link JFK with Monroe's death. According to Matthew Smith's Victim: The Secret Tapes of Marilyn Monroe (2003) the CIA was involved in a plot to implicate the Kennedys in Monroe's death as punishment for the Bay of Pigs disaster.
Nancy Carole Tyler died in a plane crash, near Ocean City, Maryland, on 10th May, 1965.

TAV Airports-led consortium completes acquisition of Almaty Airport
A consortium led by TAV Airports, which is 46.38% owned by Groupe ADP, has concluded the acquisition of Almaty Airport (ALA) in Kazakhstan and the associated jet fuel activities.
Almaty Airport is the largest airport in Central Asia. Credit: mi chiel / Flickr.
In May last year, the consortium agreed to acquire 100% of the shares of Almaty Airport and the associated jet fuel activities for an enterprise value of $415m.
Due to the present global crisis faced by the airline industry in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, $50m will be submitted subject to the achievement of a certain level of traffic at pre-determined dates.
TAV Airports hold an 85% share in the consortium while the remaining 15% is held by VPE Capital, a specialist fund manager operating in Russia and CIS.
With the deal being completed, Almaty Airport will be entirely consolidated into accounts of TAV Airports and therefore also in the accounts of Aéroports de Paris.
Almaty Airport, which is the largest airport in Central Asia, served approximately 6.4 million passengers in 2019, of which approximately half were from international routes.
Groupe ADP develops and manages airports, including Paris-Charles de Gaulle, Paris-Orly and Paris-Le Bourget.
Through its brand Paris Aéroport, the group handled 33.1 million passengers and 1.8 million metric tonnes (Mt) of freight and mail at Paris-Charles de Gaulle and Paris-Orly last year. It also serves more than 96.3 million passengers in airports abroad.
In July last year, Groupe ADP completed the purchase of a 49% stake in GMR Airports, a unit of India's GMR Infrastructure (GIL).

One-play return has Michigan State LB Ed Davis ready for more
Chris Solari
EAST LANSING -- Months of waiting, wondering and working came down to this moment.
Michigan State's defense had the Irish pinned to a third-and-13. Ed Davis trotted onto the field at Notre Dame Stadium, nearly 21 months since his last college football game, a bulky brace covering his surgically repaired right knee.
The rehabilitation and textbooks and NCAA no longer were Davis' biggest opponents.
"I didn't really know they were gonna put me in at that time," Davis recalled Tuesday. "I couldn't really feel anything. I was so hyped-up. My heart was going so fast. I just felt like I was out there on a cloud."
Davis lined up on the right side of the MSU defensive line, then smoothly dropped back in zone coverage. DeShone Kizer had no open receivers, tried to run, and Malik McDowell wrangled the Notre Dame quarterback to the ground after one yard.
And like that, Ed Davis went back to the sideline, a football player once again.
It would be the only snap for which the sixth-year senior would be on the field in the eighth-ranked Spartans' 36-28 victory over the Irish. It was, however, a major milestone for Davis.
"He's getting better every day," linebackers coach Mark Snyder said today. "You see more and more confidence in it. And there is still a ways to go, but he's coming every day."
Davis' potentially promising 2015 season, one in which he was tabbed a preseason All-Big Ten pick and landed on the Bednarik Award watch list, ended before it began. The 6-foot-2, 237-pound Detroit native suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament Aug. 12, 2015, during the Spartans' first full-pads practice of preseason camp. He was forced to sit, watch and rehab his injury while MSU marched on to a Big Ten title and a spot in the College Football Playoff.
Coach Mark Dantonio started hinting before last season ended that Davis would get a waiver for a sixth year of eligibility from the NCAA, citing an injury Davis suffered during his freshman year. The caveat was that the sociology major had to graduate. That took all spring and summer, with Davis finally getting his degree in late August, after second-session summer school ended.
MSU filed the paperwork with the NCAA on Aug. 23. That's when Davis could resume practicing.
"My first day out there back in pads, I was gassed," he said. "It was, like, 90 degrees, and I could hardly breathe. Also, me trying to cut on my knees the first day. Everything. The whole thing was a tough process."
Then came the seemingly long wait while medical files were reviewed. Finally, on Sept. 9, Davis got the news that he would be granted one final season of college football.
"It was real tough, because I also had classes. So I was going class, trying to keep up on all my football stuff, trying to stay in shape, rehab and all of that," said Davis, who is now working toward a second undergraduate degree in interdisciplinary studies, with a focus on community governance and advocacy. "It was real hard, me still not knowing if I would be able to come back and play. It was a tough process. But I persevered through it, and in the end, God came through and gave me my chance."
Physically, Davis is healthy, but he admits he must still learn to trust his previously injured knee again. The Spartans are as deep as they've ever been at linebacker, with junior Jon Reschke rising to fill Davis' spot and becoming one of the biggest surprises a year ago. Junior Chris Frey and sophomore Andrew Dowell also have developed into prominent pieces alongside senior middle linebacker Riley Bullough. Shane Jones, Byron Bullough and Tyriq Thompson are developing players in the next wave.
That leaves Davis' role in limbo as he works his way back. A force off the edge on blitzes, Davis is MSU's active career leader in sacks with 11 and has 16.5 of his 80 career tackles for a loss. He had seven of those sacks in a 2014 season in which he started 12 of the Spartans' 13 games at Sam linebacker.
Snyder and Dantonio both said they would like for Davis to play more this week against Wisconsin, but they feel he needs to show he's back to his old self. Davis said he is open to trying anything, even shifting to defensive end if need be, to get on the field more often.
Not to mention getting the chance to run out of the Spartan Stadium tunnel again Saturday, after not knowing whether he'd ever play another college football game. He admits he doesn't know how he'll feel emotionally. He's mostly concerned about getting his body right for what's ahead.
"I've come way far. I got my wind back, my strength is up to par," he said. "I'm just tweaking little things, and I should be back to myself in no time."

Oh my god. This was amazing!! If you have been following this blog for awhile you'll note this is quite similar to Yotam Ottenlenghi's Fiery Black Pepper Tofu I made a few years back. I always wanted to revisit this one as I loved the way the tofu was prepared (probably the only way I'll eat tofu that hasn't been marinated) and I really enjoyed the other flavours, it was just way too hot and didn't have enough sauce for my liking.
Back in England I always used to get this Japanese Tofu in Teriyaki Sauce from our local noodle bar, it was so good I would usually just order it and some steamed rice and nothing else. It was similarly fried silken tofu but in this delicious thick, sweet/salty soy based sauce with strips of spring onion. So I had a search online for some teriyaki sauces and settled on this one with a few changes. I wanted to keep this a spicy dish mind you, so I kept the chili in there but vastly reduced the pepper and used Szechuan peppercorns instead, although you can just use regular peppercorns. OR you could easily omit both the chili and peppercorns for a non spicy dish, this sauce has so much flavour it'll still taste fantastic without them.
Altogether this was perfect - that sauce is amazing, there's plenty of it and I found the spice level just right, a nice gentle burn but nothing that is overpowering. My only complaint is that I'm the only one in the house that likes tofu and I couldn't share it with anyone and it's too good not too!! So, I'm going to virtually share it with you all instead :-) Enjoy!
50g or 1/4 cup dry weight rice of your choice, I used white basmati.
Wrap the tofu up in some paper towels and then in a clean dish cloth and leave to absorb some of the excess liquid. Change the paper towels a few times to get out as much moisture as possible.
Meanwhile get all your ingredients prepared: sliced shallots, spring onion, finely chopped ginger, garlic and chili. Mix together the soy sauce, water, agave syrup and add brown sugar, stir to dissolve the sugar. Unwrap the tofu and weigh out 100g and cube them whatever size you like but not too small and gently toss them in cornstarch (cornflour). Grind the peppercorns in a mortar and pestle or by smashing with a rolling pin under some cling film. Put the rice on to cook now.
In a wok add some vegetable oil, about an inch deep, I added 100g to my small wok and bring to high heat, it should just start to be smoking. Re-coat the tofu pieces in cornstarch (cornflour) as they will have likely absorbed the first amount. This will give you extra crispy tofu! Fry until crispy and golden on one side then flip and do the other. If you have cut the tofu more cubed shape do all 4 sides. Mine only needed the 2 large sides done.
Remove the oil from the wok and remove any sediment with a bunch of paper towels, taking care as the pan will still be hot! Add a teaspoon of oil, whatever you like, I used peanut oil and return to the heat but keep it low. Add the shallots, ginger, garlic, ground peppercorns and chili and fry gently until nice and fragrant and the shallots start to soften, just a minute or two. Take care not to burn the garlic. Add the soy sauce mixture and simmer until the shallots are soft, just a minute or two.
Dissolve the cornstarch in the water and stir this into the mixture. Keep stirring until it just gets thick, about a minute or less, then turn off the heat. Add the tofu and spring onions then toss gently with a rubber spatula until the tofu is well coated in sauce and warmed and the spring onions just start to wilt. The residual heat will be enough to do this.
Your rice should be ready by now so drain well if boiling or just give it a fluff if steaming and spoon onto a plate or into a shallow bowl. Place the tofu on top and scrape all the sauce over top. Serve immediately!
2013 Edit - I made this variation for dinner for my husband who hates tofu (!) Same sauce recipe but instead of frying tofu I sautéed some asparagus, sugar snap peas and half a tin of drained chick peas in a little peanut oil. Tossed them into the thickened sauce and served over wholegrain basmati rice. A delicious variation!
Nutritional Information: 1 serving with rice portion stated.

Oh yeah....time to get my Canadian on! Baked beans are a funny one with me as I never liked them growing up and only developed a taste for them when I moved to England in 1998. I think it's actually a prerequisite to moving there, they won't let you in without declaring a love of baked beans :-) I don't know why I wasn't keen as a child, to be honest I'm not sure I ever had them! I should have liked them though because in Canada a common tinned baked bean flavour is maple. Yes, maple baked beans, with proper Canadian maple syrup. This I had to make, and was very pleased to find this recipe for maple baked beans but then I thought, how much MORE Canadian can I make these? And basically two things come to my mind when I think of food back home - maple syrup and beer. This was a no-brainer - chuck a bottle of beer into the maple sauce and I'm golden.
Well it turned out fantastic! I made a few changes to the process of cooking beans here, mostly adopting Heidi Swanson's tip in Super Natural Cooking of adding a bunch of veg and or herbs to the beans while they cook, and of course, I've added beer here as well. The end result is not like the baked beans you know - these are even sweeter - the maple flavour is quite pronounced here which is good I think - otherwise what's the point of adding it?? You do want to actually taste maple and I think the beer not only added great flavour but most likely cut through the sweetness a bit as well. Of course if sweet savoury things are not your thing you could always cut back on the maple syrup.....but then again if sweet/savoury isn't your thing you wouldn't be making maple beans would you?? Oh and I am calling them baked beans here as that is what these are based on, even though no baking is involved at all!
As I was making homemade "baked" beans it seemed rather wasteful to then put them on top of store bought slice bread. I have to thank my husband here who said, "Don't you make a beer bread that's really good?" Perfect. Beer bread for the maple beer beans - a match made in Canadian heaven :-) I've had this recipe for beer bread for years! I'm guessing I started using it around 1991, where I got it from I have no idea but it was the first bread recipe I would make before learning how to use yeast. Basically the beer works as it already has yeast in it and makes a light, airy bread with a beautiful golden crust. I haven't made it for so long as I always opt for yeast risen recipes now but I will be making this regularly now - I forgot how amazing this bread is, great flavour and texture for a quick bread and it goes so well with the sweet maple beer beans.
A few recipe notes: You will need a day to make these as using dried beans are essential here, I'm generally a canned bean kinda girl but not here as you want to cook the beans in the beer and sauce and tinned will turn to mush. For the ketchup I always use Heinz 'reduced salt and sugar' - not sure it would have made a huge difference though. Little moosey here approved!!
The night before wash the beans then soak in a large bowl of cold water and leave overnight. The next morning drain and rinse the beans well then place in a large saucepan and fill with fresh cold water. Bring to the boil then boil the beans rapidly for 10 minutes with the lid off. Add the chopped veg and thyme, bring back to boil then cover and simmer for 50 minutes, giving the beans 1 hour cooking time in total. Stir now and again.
While the beans are simmering add all the sauce ingredients except the beer to a bowl and whisk well.
Check that the beans are tender now, if not give them a little longer, when just tender drain and remove the veg. Don't worry about removing small bits of onion or the little thyme leaves that have fallen off, they add nice flavour to the beans, just remove the large pieces of veg, thyme stalk and garlic cloves.
Place the beans back in the pot and pour over the sauce and the beer. Stir well and bring to the boil. Boil without a lid until it just starts to reduce and thicken up then reduce to a simmer. Simmer until further reduced and thickened to how you like it, mine took 20 minutes from when I added the sauce. I prefer my beans not very 'saucy' and reduced it quite a bit, you may like to leave it earlier. You can use them now or transfer to a bowl and let cool, cover and refrigerate - they reheat really easy either on a stovetop or in the microwave.
1 tsp dried herbs of your choice - I used mixed herbs and actually 1 1/2 tsp as I like it herby!
Grease a 1.5 ltr loaf pan and line the bottom with baking paper. Preheat the oven to 375F / 180C. Whisk everything but the beer in a large bowl. Pour in the beer then stir and fold in with a rubber spatula until fully mixed. It will be very thick! Scrape this mixture into the loaf pan and even off the top. Pop into the preheated oven for 45 minutes or until risen and golden brown on top and a toothpick comes out clean. Optional - I like to now brush vegan butter all over the top, it just adds a lovely flavour. Leave it in the tin for 5 minutes then remove onto a wire rack to fully cool.
This bread is so good fresh from the oven like this but for the beans I preferred it the next day so I could toast it and slather it with vegan butter.
And of course, while I have focused thus far on just the beans and bread they both go exceptionally well as part of a larger fry up. The sweet maple beans contrasting perfectly with some lightly salted flat mushrooms and spicy vegan sausages, I've used Fry's Braai Country Herb Flavour here and I hope you'll all forgive me for being out of hash browns ;-) Tomatoes purposely left out....I never 'got' that!
Recipe source: Maple Baked Beans based on this one from Taste of Home.
It was an amazing meal, absolutely delicious and honestly better than anything vegan we would get in Cork :-) All recipe components are on the blog here except the sticky toffee pudding, I'll post relevant links and step by step photos of the ravioli later, right now I've got Champagne to finish!

Fair Trade Facts for Kids
Micah McDunnigan - Updated January 31, 2023
What is Fair Trade?
What Can Kids Learn from Fair Trade?
Fair trade is an arrangement designed to help producers in developing countries achieve sustainable and equitable trade relationships. The fairtrade movement allows for a collaboration between exporter prices and improved standards for the environment and social life. Fair trade certified products can range, from coffee made from coffee farmers to cocoa like chocolate bars made from cocoa farmers.
Fair trade farmers are common characters in the fair trade process and fair trade movement. Products and fairtrade foundation associates use the fairtrade mark or fairtrade logo to symbolize what products are included in their market by using the fairtrade sticker on their products. Worksheets can also be used in the fairtrade process to help with overall organization of products and those in the fairtrade market and with fairtrade means.
Kids can learn a few facts about fair trade products that illustrate the basic concepts behind this company, which they will hear a great deal about if they begin watching the news or reading newspapers early. We have some fair trade facts for kids.
One fact kids can learn is the economic principle behind the notion of fair trade, comparative advantage. This principle states that any given group of people or country will be able to produce some goods more efficiently that another group of people or country.
If everyone manufactures the products they can produce most efficiently and then trades another country for the goods it cannot produce as efficiently, the principle states that everyone will generate the most profit with fair prices. This principle works across international borders, in that some countries will be more efficient at producing certain goods than other countries and the countries should trade these goods with each other.
Trade barriers create conditions for "unfair" trade. One of these trade barriers is the concept of a "tariff," or a tax on goods entering a given county's market. If a country passes a tariff on a given product, the government collects a fee every time the product enters the country.
This makes the items more expensive, which reduces its ability to compete with similar domestically created products. Sometimes the passing of a tariff makes an item more expensive than a similar domestic product, when the government fee is included in the price. Fairtrade premiums are also included in prices of items included in the supply chain and movement.
Quotas
A quota is another kind of trade barrier. Unlike a tariff, quotas are not taxes on goods entering a given country. Quotas specify a maximum amount of a foreign product that can enter a country in a given year. Once that quota is met, the country does not allow anymore of that product to enter the country. If a country sets a quota of ten tons of foreign steel for a given year, once a foreign country sells ten tons of steel in the country, it is not allowed to sell any more steel for the rest of the year.
Fair Trade Agreements
Fair trade agreements are treaties between different countries that agree to limit the number of trade barriers they put up regarding each other's products. These agreements allow products from each country to enter the trading country without the product being taxed by a tariff, or limited by a quota. One example is the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), which restricted trade barriers between Canada, the United States and Mexico. Countries like Ghana, Kenya, New Zealand and the Dominican Republic are also included within fairtrade work and fairtrade standards being used in their fairtrade towns of production.
Agreements can also be made to protect working conditions for those involved in fair trade processes, help with sustainability and growers, as well as help with products in the process like fairtrade coffee, pesticides, fairtrade bananas, fairtrade cotton, fairtrade cocoa or fairtrade chocolate. Other needs of empowerment for climate change, healthcare and importing information can be included within the fairtrade movement and agreements. Fairtrade schools are another option for educating kids on what the fair trade certification and fair trade labels mean.

We've taken a look at the National Assessment for Educational Progress (NAEP) (the only test of academic achievement that is administered to all states across America) over time. When you look at the map, we have used eligibility for the national school lunch program as a proxy for coming from a low-income background, and then we've identified gaps in 4th and 8th grade Reading and Math. Since 2003, while other states have made progress and seen change, Connecticut's achievement gap has remained wide and intransigent–among the worst in America.

Mei Wen of Perth, Australia, touches an area of the Holy Stairs where Jesus is believed to have fallen, during restoration work at the Pontifical Sanctuary of the Holy Stairs in Rome March 15, 2019. Wen is one of the major donors who contributed to the restoration of the sanctuary. Pilgrims will have the opportunity to climb the bare marble stairs for at least a month after an April 11 unveiling of the renovated sanctuary.
Replicas of the Holy Stairs have been constructed in various places around the world, including a site close to home. Women climb the Holy Stairs at the Shrine of the Little Flower in Nasonville, a special devotion that unites Christians with the passion of Jesus Christ.

Do you want to join the big league and become a major influencer and a go-to-leader in your industry?
Chances are, there are several other influencers in your space that are dominating the industry and that you are looking up to.
But how can you replicate their success and ultimately surpass them?
In this article, we'll reverse-engineer the top influencers to understand how they have come to the place where they are now and see how you as a micro-influencer can replicate their success.
Being an influencer means being unique and going your own path.
If you look at the top influencers, you'll be able to mention a few things that all define them and make them unique.
Nobody remembers a copycat, but everyone remembers someone who dares to go their own path.
Therefore, you want to begin by creating your own theme that is coherent and appealing.
When you keep a coherent visual theme and style, people will be able to recognize you from miles away due to your unique nature and style, which in the long run make you an icon and a person that is always associated with the niche you're in.
For instance, if you think about fast food, chances are, you'll think of McDonald's.
It's not so strange, they're industry giants.
Remember that your visual theme resembles who you are, and also which people that will resonate with you.
Make sure you stay true to yourself because this is something that all influencers are doing.
If there's something that all social media influencers have in common, it is that they share daily and on a regular basis.
And of course, they do. For the vast majority of influencers, it is their job, and therefore, they take it very seriously.
And if you want to become like them, or even surpass them, you have to do it too!
Consistency is key for all type of social media success, and it is the foundation to great performing content.
By posting at the same time every day, people will know when they can expect posts from you, and start tuning it at that time every day.
Don't be like regular users on social media who shares tons of images within a short period of time when they actually have interesting things to post, and then be quiet for half a year.
If you know you won't be able to keep a consistent schedule, then don't give your audience that promise, because you'll just give them false expectations and they'll lose trust in you.
It's better to post 5 posts a day consistently than it is to post 7 times a day at inconsistent times.
When your audience engaged with you, supports you, and give you their support, they bring you value.
But what are you giving them in return?
Sure, you provide them with content (hopefully it's great), but if you want to take it one step further and really give back to your community to show your appreciation for their support, why not run a giveaway?
The best part about being a micro-influencer is that many brands will want to team up with you for running a giveaway, which means you won't have to buy the gifts you're giving away.
People love free stuff, and this also goes for your own social media followers.
If you've seen other influencers rn giveaways, you've probably also noticed that those are the most that generate the highest engagement.
That's because a precondition for winning is often to engage with the post.
Remember that the better the price is, the more people are going to join. This is especially important when you demand your audience to do a lot to join, for instance, sign up for your newsletter, tag 5 friends, and so on.
The better price you give away, and the easier it is to join, the more contestants you'll get, and the more you'll be able to increase your influence.
Not only do you increase your following with the help of giveaways, but you also increase your audience's loyalty to you, because they feel like you're actually giving something back to your community.
Your reputation is tremendously important as a micro-influencer.
It is what will affect how people will perceive you, how much people will look up to you, and how influential you'll be in the industry you're operating in.
If there's something you need to value above everything else, it is your reputation.
Because if you damage your reputation. you're harming the trust people have in you, and if people's trust in you is harmed, people won't trust your brand recommendations, and when they don't trust your brand recommendations, you'll generate lousy results for the brands you partner with, and in the long run, no brand will want to partner with you.
As an influencer, your reputation and your audience are all you have, so don't throw that away just because you are greedy for a few bucks.
There are examples of brands who both do this and don't do this.
Influencers are often much better at this than celebrity influencers, and regular influencers are often much better at protecting and valuing their own reputation, and saying no to brand deals they feel won't resonate with their personality.
Not only is it important that you only promote brands that resonate with your personality, but it is also important that you only promote ethical brands.
The best example of the worst influencer marketing campaign that had a huge negative effect on a celebrity influencer's reputation is Scott Disick.
When he promoted a brand, the band wrote the caption for him, which only that is a big mistake as it removes the personality of the influencer. But the big problem was that he accidentally copied everything the brand has sent him.
Including the instructions for the post.
Just because you're a micro-influencer, doesn't mean you don't have the right to choose which brands you want to partner with.
Because losing credibility and trust is tremendously harmful to influencers, most of them are highly selective with the brands they partner with.
This is something you need to be too!
If you get approached by brands, don't say yes in a heartbeat just because you make a few bucks.
Because in the long run, a partnership that harms your credibility and reputation won't be worth a few bucks.
You've probably noticed that the influencers who create the best content on social media are most often the top influencers on social media.
You could speculate a lot about the reasons for this, but I'd dare to say that the main reason is that the top influencers have been doing social media for a long time, they've learnt how to produce quality content, and they've learnt what their audience like so they can create content that resonates with them, and thus granting them better results.
On social media, content is everything.
If you don't have any content, good luck with driving any results.
Content on social media is your value proposition, and it is what will ultimately help you build an audience.
The reason people follow you on social media is that you share content that brings them value in one way or another, and that inspires them.
This is why you need to emphasize content like nothing else.
If you can produce higher quality content than the top influencers in your industry, at least then, you deserve to be a top influencer.
And when you deserve to be one, the audience will come.
You just have to execute consistently and engage with your audience on a regular basis.
Creating content is time-consuming and hard. This is the most common excuse that marketers have. The problem many faces is that they either compromise on quality or they compromise on the quantity. And both are actually crucial for success.
If your main content is written content, but you struggle to find the time to create it, you can always use freelance websites that help you create top-notch content that your audience will love.
These are five of the best techniques you should learn from top influencers. They can help you grow your following, and income as a micro-influencer.
You need to attract brands and relevant followers with unique and consistent aesthetics as well as a consistent posting schedule. You also need to use trending hashtags to attract even more relevant followers to your content.
Try hosting your own giveaways to engage your audience, and boost their perception of you. And finally, be selective about the brands you work with, right from the start so you don't associate yourself with any brands that could damage your reputation or credibility.
Got any questions about these tips for micro-influencers? Let me know in the comments below. Or you can get in touch with me if you need help building your influence and monetizing it.

There is no difference in a tan produced by the sun or from tanning equipment. UVR exposure from either the sun or tanning equipment increases the risk of skin cancer.
On May 1, 2014 the new Ontario Skin Cancer Prevention Act (Tanning Beds) which bans the use of tanning beds by youth under 18 years of age came into effect.
This legislation is important because it can help to prevent skin cancer. The World Health Organization (WHO) has included tanning beds in its highest cancer risk category along with asbestos and tobacco. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has stated that tanning bed use increases the risk of the deadliest form of skin cancer, malignant melanoma. That risk is 75% higher if tanning bed use begins before the age of 35. This legislation will reduce the likelihood of youth being exposed to UV radiation at a young age.
Remember no tan is a safe tan! Tanning causes skin cancer.
Sun-less tanning products or self-tanning products offer a tanned appearance without going out into the sun or using artificial UV radiation (tanning beds).
There are no known health risks from correctly applied sun-less or self-tanning products, whether applied at home or professionally. However, they do not protect the skin from sun damage, so sun protection must be used as well. Some self-tanning products are combined with sunscreen but it's important to read the label to ensure you're choosing a product with an SPF of 30 or higher.
