Then Derrick said: America has chosen...
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, this is your team. Behold America's Team.
Donny: Did ya'll go to the board and look?
Derrick: Yeah...I had my ideas, but...
Frankie: Yeah, I looked. I had you pegged (indicating Donny), and either you (Derrick) or Christine..also because of the order that we got called in....
Derrick says they will need to talk more about it tomorrow, and even though they have other relationships in the house, they need to be sure the others stay because every time they "do what America tells them" they win $15,000 to share.
Derrick: And none of us are targets right now....
Donny says it is rare to get an "outside feed" when you're playing Big Brother.
Derrick: We'd be the biggest idiots not to do this...they just told us who we can trust...so as far as I"m concerned we're the last three...
Derrick said he wanted to get out of the DR as quickly as possible, since there were a lot of people around, but he can't thank America enough for giving him this opportunity.
Donny says their group has it all---they've got a brain in Derrick, a performer in Frankie, and if you need a beard, he's got one.
The conversation broke up when Caleb came over to discuss how they should shave or style Donny's beard.
I have mixed feelings about this. I think Derrick had a good thing going in this game and I'm worried that this America's Team might mess things up.
CBS obviously wanted America to choose Donny, since they crafted two consecutive episodes that were all Boo Hoo Donny is Different....I thought they were embarrassing to watch but the TV show isn't aimed at me, or any of the live feeders, really.
And Frankie? I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him. I have heard him trash talk about just about everyone but Christine, and he doesn't seem to be telling us the real story in the DR. He's just playing up to the cameras most of the time. Frankie is an interesting person, because under all of the glitter and manic energy, I think he is a very sad person and you can see it in his face sometimes.
I wonder what their tasks will be...will they be game-related like trying to influence someone's nominations or votes? Or pranks like putting hot sauce in the peanut butter or mayonnaise inside Devin's shoes?
Let's take another look at Derrick. I'm hoping his glasses are real, unlike the frames that Caleb has been wearing, which don't EVEN HAVE GLASS IN THEM.
I asked Derrick's wife Jana if the glasses are real, and she says Derrick has perfect 20/20 vision so the glasses are just for show. We agreed that unlike Caleb, Derrick doesn't look like a douche wearing them.
I've told this story before here, but a few years ago I may or may not have made out with the "Can you hear me now?" guy near the sports betting window in the New York Casino in Las Vegas.
And by "may or may not" I meant that I did, but he may not have actually been that guy. He said he was, and he looked like it, so that is what is important here.

In more and more cases, candidates are being asked to come back for multiple interviews for the same job, often finding that they remain 'un-hired' after all their trouble and the vacancy conveniently becomes redundant. This is because firms are deploying dirty tactics to try to pump knowledgeable candidates for business solutions without having to give them anything in return.
While many job-seekers are willing to stay in the interview process for as long as it takes – believing, of course, that they are still in with a chance of landing the role – it pays to be prudent and recognise the signs that might suggest you are being taken advantage of in the interview process. If you believe this could be the case, here are some tips on how to approach it.
Understand the interview process
Knowing the length and nature of the interview process will help you to understand if and when any underhand questioning may crop up. The first stage is likely to be a screening process with an HR representative, who is unlikely to be probing for you for any information other than the basics – this is purely a formality to get you through to the next stage. After this, the questioning may become more focused and personal and will probably be with your prospective boss.
A further meeting with management may then be necessary; however, the company should have a good idea what you are about and whether you are the right fit by this stage. Be wary of any more than three interviews that do not appear to have a clear objective – or an offer! Keep an eye out for interviewers who seem to be jotting down everything you say about your 'theoretical' ideas for progression or problem solving within the company.
Ask questions
During the process, don't be afraid to ask your interviewer key questions about the role, particularly about any issues within the company. Not only does this move the interview into conversational territory but also it gives you the opportunity to probe for any issues within the company that might require your specialist knowledge. It also gives you the chance to showcase your knowledge on your terms.
If you are asked any questions about how you would solve certain issues, be sure not to give direct solutions away; instead, speak about them hypothetically, reminding the interviewer that you would need to spend time within the firm to fully understand its issues and objectives.
Just say no
Understand that your time is valuable and know when to call it a day. If you are constantly turning up, putting on a good performance and dishing out advice yet there is still no sign of a start date, be cautious about coming back for a fifth or sixth interview. Make the interviewers aware that you are busy and need to see a clear reason for meeting them again.

Delta One is now available for charter.…
The brand-new Mulder Favorite 1500 is successfully transported to the North of Germany and delivered to her owner. The semi custom-built Helene is the seventh Favorite being built after the reintroduction of the Favorite series in 2010. All the unique features of the previous six Favorite yachts are merged in this Mulder Favorite 1500. Helene is built on time and on budget and will be shown at the HISWA Amsterdam Boatshow in September.
The 15.60 meter long, full aluminium Favorite was transported to the north of Germany by low loader trailer where a team of Mulder engineers was waiting to unload and commission the yacht. The classically lined Favorite 1500 was developed in close cooperation with Guido de Groot Design and Vripack Naval Architects.
Fully optimized
The layout of the distinctive yacht with recognizable retro lines is fully optimized and set up highly efficient. Helene has two spacious cabins, one bathroom, daytoilet and lots of storage space. A third sleeping area can be created by dropping the table in the spacious saloon. The glass sliding door and electrically operating sliding window in the bright saloon with electrically opening rooftop, provide access to the spacious aft deck. On three corner sofas and a folding table memorable moments with family and friends can be enjoyed. Special detail of this all-rounder: there is a storage in the stern for a three meter tender. Helene has a beautiful round-bilged hull and will reach a maximum speed of 25 knots with twin Volvo Penta D6 435 hp each. The extra underwater spray rails and improved sound and vibration insulation will increase the sailing comfort. Helene is CE-B certified and has a standard folding mast with an air draft of 3.20 metres. The extremely efficient and stable Favorite 1500 is designed for the entire family and obviously provides the highest level of luxury and comfort. She serves as a perfect day-cruiser, but is also very suitable for longer voyages on inland-waters and open sea. The latest Mulder Favorite will have her berth in the north of Germany. The eighth and ninth Mulder Favorite yachts are already under construction. These Favorites are expected to be delivered in the spring of 2015.
The new Favorite 1500 was designed and built for private use. The aim was to create a beautiful yacht with recognizable lines that the whole family could enjoy.
In addition to the new build yachts, we also have various Mulder yachts for sale. All yachts are in mint condition and ready for direct use.

Bubble transport Mechanism: Indications for a gas bubble-mediated inoculation of benthic methanothrophs into the water column.
Schmale, Oliver, Leifer, Ira, Schneider von Deimling, Jens, Stolle, Christian, Krause, Stefan, Kießlich, Katrin, Fram, Andreas and Treude, Tina (2015) Bubble transport Mechanism: Indications for a gas bubble-mediated inoculation of benthic methanothrophs into the water column. Continental Shelf Research, 103 . pp. 70-78. DOI 10.1016/j.csr.2015.04.022.

• A new bentho-pelagic transport mechanism of microorganisms is hypothesized
• A bubble transport hypothesis was tested using a new gas bubble-collecting device
• Bubble-mediated transport rate of methanotrophs was quantified at a gas vent
• The Bubble Transport Mechanism may influence the pelagic methane sink
The importance of methanotrophic microorganisms in the sediment and water column for balancing marine methane budgets is well accepted. However, whether methanotrophic populations are distinct for benthic and pelagic environments or are the result of exchange processes between the two, remains an area of active research. We conducted a field pilot study at the Rostocker Seep site (Coal Oil Point seep field, offshore California, USA) to test the hypothesis that bubble-mediated transport of methane-oxidizing microorganisms from the sediment into the water column is quantifiable. Measurements included dissolved methane concentration and showed a strong influence of methane seepage on the water-column methane distribution with strongly elevated sea surface concentrations with respect to atmospheric equilibrium (saturation ratio ~17,000%).
Using Catalyzed Reporter Deposition Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (CARD FISH) analysis, aerobic methane oxidizing bacteria (MOB) were detected in the sediment and the water column, whereas anaerobic methanotrophs (ANME-2) were detected exclusively in the sediment. Critical data for testing the hypothesis were collected using a novel bubble catcher that trapped naturally emanating seep gas bubbles and any attached particles approximately 15 cm above the seafloor. Bubble catcher experiments were carried out directly above a natural bubble seep vent and at a nearby reference site, for which an "engineered" nitrogen bubble vent without sediment contact was created. Our experiments indicate the existence of a "Bubble Transport Mechanism", which transports MOB from the sediment into the water column. In contrast, ANME-2 were not detected in the bubble catcher. The Bubble Transport Mechanism could have important implications for the connectivity between benthic and pelagic methanotrophic communities at methane seep sites.

Composting is great for using leftovers, but it's not the only way to reduce food waste while also using your garden.
Here are five ways to use waste and food waste in your garden that does not contain a compost heap .
Read more: How to grow a healthy, beautiful garden .
Coffee grounds
Do not throw away the used coffee filter! It is full of organic matter that helps you to enrich the soil of your plants. All you have to do is coffee grounds ̵
When the soils decay, they will release potassium, nitrogen, magnesium, and other useful minerals into the soil. Coffee grounds also lower the pH of the soil, which is beneficial for some plant species such as artichokes, broccoli, lima beans and beets.
After enjoying a cup of tea, save the leaves. Like coffee, tea leaves are very nutritious for your plants. When they collapse, they release phosphorus, nitrogen and potassium into the soil and enrich it. Just like coffee, tea can be distributed around plants without planting it, as it does not burn the plants like chemical fertilizers.
Pro Tip: Put used tea bags, which are still full of leaves, on the drainage layer when planting plants. They will slowly decompose and provide nutrients to your plant during growth.
Banana peels
I love bananas and I love roses. It's good that they go together. After you have finished your banana, put the bowl in the ground around your rose bushes. When it drops, the shell will release potassium, a popular rose mineral.
I did this several times a week during the winter and when my roses bloomed they had twice as many buds.
Potatoes growing
I've seen some cooks throw a potato that makes shoots grow. Do not do that! Cut off a piece of potato below the growth. Then stick the potato piece in a pot of soil with a little skin above the ground.
Water it weekly and in a few weeks you will have a pretty potato plant that you can keep inside or bring into your garden .
Salad Throws

Miss something on one of our episodes of the #naplescaptainslog? Don't worry we got you covered! Here you will find a full transcript from this episode of the #naplescaptainslog!
Captain Brien: Welcome back guys, I missed you for a few days. We're back with the Captain's Log. My guest today, Daniel Dragon. Cleanourworld.org?
Daniel Dragon: .org, yes.
Captain Brien: .org. That's interesting.
Captain Brien: Morning. I love it, I love it. So, is this a clean world outfit? What're you wearing?
Daniel Dragon: This outfit is just related to the weather this morning, Brien.
Captain Brien: It's so cold in Florida, right?
Daniel Dragon: It's only 46.
Captain Brien: Yeah I woke up this morning early and a took a, I got on my bike and then I went back in the house and I got my winter coat on, 'cause it was so damn cold.
Daniel Dragon: Out of curiosity I was looking at the warmest places in Antarctica, it's 68.
Captain Brien: Really?
Daniel Dragon: For real.
Captain Brien: Today?
Daniel Dragon: Not today.
Captain Brien: Ah.
Daniel Dragon: But that's the record in Antarctica.
Captain Brien: Wow!
Daniel Dragon: So, thanks for having me.
Captain Brien: Yeah of course, of course.
Daniel Dragon: On the Captain's Log.
Captain Brien: I am always interested.
Captain Brien: I try to do a lot of things with, with as you know I am a commercial fisherman. I haven't been commercial fishing for a long time but, I do love the environment, I love the commercial fishing industry and obviously the beaches and everything that our ecosystem has here in southwest Florida, with the 10,000 islands and all the beautiful beaches in Naples. And your goal, it's a new organization, yes?
Daniel Dragon: Yes, ah, my friends and I got together and we decided we want to help. I know there are a lot of organizations that help in cleaning the environment.
Captain Brien: Right.
Daniel Dragon: But we live here, we love this place.
Captain Brien: Absolutely.
Daniel Dragon: For a reason, we're by the beach, so, and we have these beaches as the top 10 beaches in the world.
Captain Brien: Absolutely.
Daniel Dragon: So, we wanna keep it that way. Therefore, we want to get together and bring in as many people as we can to help clean the beaches.
Captain Brien: And you, obviously judging by the accent and the clothing, you're not from Florida.
Daniel Dragon: I have been here for 16 years now.
Captain Brien: Okay good, you have been here a long time. I have been here 21.
Daniel Dragon: I wanted to make a comment on, it's really been an honor to be on your log. Because you have famous people here normally and funny people, I'm not that funny. Only my wife thinks I'm hilarious.
Captain Brien: She does, well that's good because that's a good start. At least somebody does, usually the wife thinks you're the least funniest.
Daniel Dragon: Yeah and to tie that in with where I'm from. Our first date, my wife and I, asked me, "What's up with his accent?" I said, "What accent?"
Captain Brien: It's fake.
Daniel Dragon: It's not an accent.
Daniel Dragon: You know, when was young, I had a speech impediment.
Captain Brien: Oh
Daniel Dragon: I was speaking Romanian.
Captain Brien: Okay.
Daniel Dragon: I'm still recovering from that.
Captain Brien: I like it, I like it. So she thought that was hilarious.
Captain Brien: That was good, that was good.
Daniel Dragon: So, yeah, I have been here for quite a bit. I do love this area and the beaches here.
Captain Brien: So what got you into the idea that you wanted to start a new, you're shooting for the goal of a 501C3.
Daniel Dragon: Yes.
Captain Brien: I've been through the steps myself. So it does take quite a while. How long did you start the organization? How long has it been?
Daniel Dragon: It's been a couple of months.
Captain Brien: Okay.
Daniel Dragon: And it started off with a concert I went to where after the concert people started picking up after themselves. There were golf carts that came in and dropped trash bags and everybody started picking up the trash.
Captain Brien: Oh that's nice, on the beach?
Daniel Dragon: That was not on the beach.
Captain Brien: Okay.
Daniel Dragon: That was at a concert.
Captain Brien: Oh okay, like it was festival.
Daniel Dragon: Correct and I loved it, I loved the idea so much. Everybody was participating and I said, "We should always do that."
Captain Brien: Right.
Daniel Dragon: Why don't we always to that everywhere we go. Pick up after ourselves.
Captain Brien: I have a little superstition, so my grandfather always used to say, I fish a lot and he used to take me fishing. So he'd say, "You always have to leave the place that you're fishing cleaner than when you got there." Not only do you not leave anything behind, you have to pick up what's there.
Daniel Dragon: I agree.
Captain Brien: Because you use the environment, you use the fishing. You enjoyed everything.
Daniel Dragon: Yep.
Captain Brien: So clean it up so the next person can even if you didn't make the mess so I do. So I really do believe in that. And I just think that with Naples, Florida, we have some of the top beaches in the world. What's the guy, Dr. Beach, he give us the top 10, right?
Daniel Dragon: Right, yep.
Captain Brien: We got the top 10 beach.
Daniel Dragon: We're proud of that, we want to keep it.
Captain Brien: It's beautiful, we wanna keep it clean and I think that more organizations that doing that, the better. There's never enough, there's always, you're always looking I'm sure for volunteers to meet up. So, when you do you guys do it and how can people follow you and meet up and start participating in your organization?
Daniel Dragon: Sorry, I was looking down, I was trying to–
Captain Brien: That's okay, that's okay.
Daniel Dragon: Captain's Log profile.
Captain Brien: No one was yelling at you, they were yelling at me.
Daniel Dragon: We are, you can find us on Facebook.
Captain Brien: Yep.
Daniel Dragon: Look up cleanourworld.org.
Captain Brien: Okay.
Daniel Dragon: Or online, just type in cleanourworld.org.
Captain Brien: Yep.
Daniel Dragon: And follow the events. This is the first event we have and it's this weekend. Saturday.
Captain Brien: And where do they meet up?
Daniel Dragon: We have four meet up points or check in locations.
Daniel Dragon: We're also provide–
Captain Brien: Hey Rainy, how are you?
Daniel Dragon: We'll also provide free supplies, we will bring the bags. We'll bring the gloves.
Captain Brien: Yep.
Daniel Dragon: Even sunscreen and water.
Captain Brien: Okay
Daniel Dragon: For the volunteers, we do need more volunteers.
Captain Brien: So who's providing, who gave you the money to start with the bags and the screen and how did you raise that those funds?
Daniel Dragon: We started, first I went through all my friends and their businesses.
Captain Brien: Okay.
Daniel Dragon: I asked them if they wanna be sponsors. We do have a few sponsors at this point. We have EcoGreen cleaning solutions.
Captain Brien: Yup.
Daniel Dragon: They help with some of the supplies. And Village Home and Office Care. They're very happy to help with covering some of these cost.
Captain Brien: Right.
Daniel Dragon: And let's not forget Naples FL Taxi. He's my favorite
Daniel Dragon: Oh that's great. taxi guy in Florida, in Naples. So, we
Captain Brien: And how many people in your organization now, that are gonna be there on Saturday? What's your estimate, so you have four locations. You have gotta have four people, at least?
Daniel Dragon: We have four people. That's me, my wife, my step-son and a friend of ours.
Captain Brien: Okay and each one's gonna be at each location.
Daniel Dragon: Correct, the locations are Fort Myers Beach.
Captain Brien: Okay.
Daniel Dragon: It'll be beach access 33, which is south of Lani Kai.
Captain Brien: Yep.
Daniel Dragon: Second one is Bonita Beach Park. Easy to find on Google Maps.
Captain Brien: Yep.
Daniel Dragon: The next one is Vanderbilt and Lowdermilk in Naples.
Captain Brien: Okay so they'll meet there at what time?
Daniel Dragon: Eight o'clock.
Captain Brien: Eight o'clock on Saturday.
Daniel Dragon: And we plan from eight to 10 to pick up what we can find. At 10 we will start gathering all the trash bags together.
Captain Brien: Saturday the 20th?
Captain Brien: Saturday the 19th.
Captain Brien: The 19th, okay.
Captain Brien: Eight a.m.
Captain Brien: On the 19th at eight a.m.
Daniel Dragon: So eight a.m. to 10 a.m., at 10:30 we'll leave and maybe meet up for breakfast somewhere.
Captain Brien: Okay.
Daniel Dragon: I do have all the details on the Facebook event. So look up for Beach Clean Up Southwest Florida.
Captain Brien: Yep.
Daniel Dragon: Our goal is to get this to become contagious.
Captain Brien: Absolutely, how often do you plan on doing the beach clean up?
Daniel Dragon: At least once a quarter, probably more, hopefully. But we wanna do, we start with the beach because it's easy and fun for everyone and we'll get involved in cleaning some other neighborhoods.
Captain Brien: You have a little cleaning device?
Daniel Dragon: Yes, well, I am a big proponent of concealed carry of a trash picker upper. Hold on I don't know if you can see here, there you go.
Captain Brien: You gotta get it going.
Daniel Dragon: There you go
Captain Brien: Has that one actually been used yet?
Daniel Dragon: No, not yet.
Captain Brien: Not yet, that's a clean one.
Daniel Dragon: It's a clean one, it's fresh.
Captain Brien: Alright, alright, that's good.
Daniel Dragon: We have some to provide for those who can't.
Captain Brien: That's great. And those were donated by the first few sponsors that you already mentioned, that's great.
Daniel Dragon: Correct, they helped in with the costs. So thank you sponsors for that. And if anybody else wants to get involved if you cannot clean but wanna be involved, please be a sponsor.
Captain Brien: And you're going to also, not only do we want sponsors but we're looking for volunteers.
Daniel Dragon: Correct.
Captain Brien: So after this post, when I put it up, you'll be able to comment below and put the link on it where they can find you.
Daniel Dragon: Yes.
Captain Brien: And they can also, if they have questions, they can DM me and I can put them in touch with you. So you're all hooked up, that's great.
Daniel Dragon: As a thank you for all the volunteers that will come in, most locations, we've already figured out how to provide free parking.
Captain Brien: Okay.
Daniel Dragon: 'Cause at the beach sometimes.
Captain Brien: Yeah absolutely.
Daniel Dragon: It's problematic.
Captain Brien: Wait, how'd you do that? 'Cause I wanna do that for my next event.
Daniel Dragon: Okay.
Captain Brien: My next event is just me going to the beach. So how do I do that?
Daniel Dragon: Well right now, I'll tell you.
Captain Brien: What's the secret?
Daniel Dragon: Big shout out to Lani Kai from Fort Meyers Beach, they provide some free parking spots.
Captain Brien: Yup.
Daniel Dragon: Right across the street there's Norm's Parking and right next to Lonnie Kai, Dave's parking. They also provided.
Captain Brien: Dave's parking?
Daniel Dragon: Yeah, I think it's called Dave's Sunset something.
Captain Brien: Is that Dave or Wave?
Daniel Dragon: Dave.
Captain Brien: Okay, I wasn't sure.
Daniel Dragon: It's the accent.
Captain Brien: It is, it's definitely the accent, but it's sexy. Don't get me wrong, I mean that's a chick magnet, right?
Daniel Dragon: Well it worked, I'm married.
Captain Brien: There you go, you got a real magnet. You got magnet, lock and key, all from the accent.
Daniel Dragon: Many other locations have provided or offered to provide free parking, all they want to identify the people that show up as volunteers to have this flyer printed and put it on the dashboard.
Captain Brien: Yep.
Daniel Dragon: And I'm gonna link this. it's already linked on the event page.
Captain Brien: Yeah.
Daniel Dragon: On Facebook.
Captain Brien: We can post it, you can also just post that in the comments as an image.
Daniel Dragon: Yep.
Captain Brien: And then they can click on it and print it out.
Daniel Dragon: So with that, most locations will allow for free parking.
Captain Brien: So how many people do you have signed up so far? How many do you need?
Daniel Dragon: So far, we have 150 signed up.
Captain Brien: 150!
Daniel Dragon: However,
Captain Brien: That's impressive!
Daniel Dragon:They're interested but not everyone said they're going.
Captain Brien: Yeah, how many are going? They better be going, everyone's interested.
Daniel Dragon: 50 said they're going.
Captain Brien: That's great.
Daniel Dragon: We need more than 50.
Captain Brien: Yeah.
Daniel Dragon: And we hope to turn those interested in going.
Captain Brien: Absolutely.
Daniel Dragon: It's gonna be fun, it's a good cause and might as well make it a beach day.
Captain Brien: What's the temperature gonna be?
Daniel Dragon: I saw it's gonna be about 81.
Captain Brien: Ah so you can wear your bikini and get a tan.
Daniel Dragon: So that's the high on Saturday.
Captain Brien: Yeah and it's beautiful.
Daniel Dragon: Much better than today.
Captain Brien: Today is a little chilly.
Daniel Dragon: Yeah, we're excited, let me see if I forget something.
Captain Brien: What's the website so the people know where to find you.
Daniel Dragon: It's easy, it's cleanourworld.org.
Captain Brien: It's a good website.
Daniel Dragon: Yep.
Captain Brien: That's a good website.
Daniel Dragon: So.
Captain Brien: Good domain name.
Daniel Dragon: Yeah I dabble a little bit in marketing.
Captain Brien: Okay, okay, what's your full time business?
Daniel Dragon: I'm an insurance guy. I provide low cost insurance for the rest of us.
Captain Brien: For healthcare or?
Daniel Dragon: All types of insurance, like people insurance. Not objects, so I don't insure cars or homes.
Captain Brien: Okay.
Daniel Dragon: It's life, health, disability, cancer insurance.

Captain Brien: And they were very good, I did it to 501C3 and it worked out well.
Daniel Dragon: Introduce me.
Captain Brien: Yeah yeah they were good, they walked me right through it. 'Cause it's a lot of red tape, right?
Daniel Dragon: Yeah.
Captain Brien: It's hard.
Daniel Dragon: Yes.

C64 Drivers (& Tools)
Have you already experienced the following:
You got C64 related hardware on second hand market but not the drivers to use it? This can be very annoying! It already happened to me. And because I collected a fair amount of software and drivers for different C64 hardware in the meantime, I thought, it might be of use for others. That's why this section is on this website, though it is not related to Cascade at all...
There have been always rumours about the possibility of writing own software for the FC3 Desktop. With the software on this disk it is in fact possible, although the documentation is very small. The documentation is in two formats. One is a .seq (I also included a SEQ-Reader), and one is in Vizawrite format, incase you still own that cool Wordprocessor.
On this disk are some small Utilies, which were especially written to work with your Action Replay, such as Demowriter, Sprite Editor, Musichacker etc. Well I don't think these tools are desperately needed, but hardware support is hardware support!
This is the Driver Disk V2.1 for the Expert Cartridge. The characteristic of the Expert Cartridge was, that it was able to store extra software in its ram, so that the use of the cartridge could be not only self-chosen, but there was furthermore the ability to write new software for it. There are plenty of tools on these disks, like backup, copies, freezers, grabbers, graphic-editors. Sadly I had no chance already to check it all neither to make any use of it.

Lacee · Married on 06/04/2016
The owner of Ever After Florals, Jen, is the sweetest most personable person you'll ever meet. I came to our first meeting with a couple of Pinterest pictures and examples of what I wanted and Jen was literally finishing my sentences and knew exactly what I was going for. She worked with me on my budget and allowed me to use some pre-bought items for centerpieces which saved me a ton of money. Her prices are VERY reasonable.Sent on 06/22/2016
Our wedding day set record heat of 117 degrees outside but somehow all of our flowers looked absolutely amazing. Jen when above and beyond our expectations. She planned and executed to the T. My bouquet literally took my breath away.
We would recommend her for any type of floral design that you need. Absolutely fab!!!

Ever After Florals created awesome bouquets and boutonnières for my wedding!! I love that we were also able to do bouquets for the Mothers of the bride/groom instead of going the corsage route. My flowers were absolutely gorgeous and I loved the arrangement as it was exactly what I was looking for. After the wedding, I put my bouquet in the fridge in a vase of water as we were heading straight off to our honeymoon, when we got back home about a week later, the flowers still looked amazing which speaks to their freshness!! Jen is an amazing person and a great businesswoman!! This review was long over due as my wedding date was 12/5/15, but wanted to say that I would definitely recommend Ever After Florals - Thanks Jen!!!!Sent on 01/14/2016

Here is the latest progress.
Solid-State Poems
Solid-State Poems is an ongoing project that explores objects' form and materiality in an industrial design context. The works are products designed without any realistic limitations. They are free from the consumerism narrative or ergonomic restrictions. They are simply created to be impractical product-like 'objects' and they can hardly be prototyped in reality. They can be just treated like 'interesting geometries' or even sculptures that has vague or no functionalities. There are no users and certainly no manufacturing process. But because of the forms or certain details of these objects people will want to see them as products and assume their functions based on their own knowledge. It is always interesting to see how users put themselves in this kind of contexts. I enjoy this anxiety of perceiving as well as the ambiguity of physicality and affordance of the products. Not like judging art, people can still find the joy of criticizing what they are 'familiar' with. Every once in a while I will post a new piece in this collection. The works are very speculative and sometimes totally irrelevant. Personally I think this is a lot of fun.
These 30 pieces are concluded as Volume 3 in this collection. This is an ongoing project. Check the latest work at http://www.chengtaoyi.com/#/ssp/

Some of the biggest deposits of iron, copper, and rare-earth elements are in the middle of the Pacific. They come at a cost.
Closer than the moon, yet less well-mapped than Mars, the Earth's seafloor is home to otherworldly creatures befitting a science fiction movie. Their remote habitat has caught the attention of humans, who are lining up to begin mining the bottom of the deep blue sea.
As technology and infrastructure drive the demand for minerals, and terrestrial resources grow harder to mine, the materials in the deep ocean are starting to look increasingly attractive to countries and companies.
"Deep-sea mining could end up having the largest footprint of any single human activity on the planet in terms of area of impact," says University of Hawaii oceanographer Craig Smith.
It's already underway: pioneer excavations in Papua New Guinea and Japan have taken advantage of advances in remotely operated vehicles, robotics, and communications technology to pioneer excavations. And companies like Lockheed Martin subsidiary UK Seabed Resources are eager to embark on a new deep-sea bonanza.
Over one million square miles of abyssal plain 12,000 to 18,000 feet deep is peppered with polymetallic nodules—vast fields of lumpy, black, potato-shaped mineral deposits.
Nodules range in size from a pea to a soccer ball and are rich in manganese, iron, copper, nickel, cobalt, and rare-earth elements, though they can take millions of years to grow a few millimeters.
The idea of mining these nodules, in part, led to the U.N. Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) in 1982. It also resulted in the establishment of the International Seabed Authority (ISA) which oversees exploration claims in international waters.

Supergirl Round Table: Does Lena Know About Kara?Paul Dailly at .
Will Kara's secret come out?
That was addressed on Supergirl Season 2 Episode 4 when Kara needed help in the aftermath of the chaos Roulette caused.
TV Fanatics Christine Hinton, Steve Ford, Yana Grebenyuk and Jim Garner chat Roulette's debut, Alex's feelings and J'onn's new storyline.
What did you think of Roulette?
Christine: The most interesting thing about her was that her connections got her cut loose before she was even taken into custody. I'm guessing we'll be seeing more of her this season, but I wonder if it will be for another fight club, or something equally as nefarious.
Steve: She was far too hammy for me to take her as a serious villain, however I agree with Christine on it being interesting on how quickly her connections got her off the hook. It definitely won't be the last we see of Roullette, but I wish it was.
Yana: I love the actress so seeing her on my screen is far from a burden. I wasn't captivated by her character as much, but I could be if that meant she would appear more on Supergirl. There is definitely more to her than we are expecting.
Jim: I'm with Yana on this one, I love the actress, so I'm ok with seeing her again. She tends to make a pretty formidable presences on screen, so she should be a good bad guy.
How long will it be before Alex admits her feelings to Maggie?
Christine: Well, Alex just got serious blindsided so I don't expect it to be any time soon. I'm still trying to figure out if Maggie didn't mean to send Alex those "signals" or if she did and was planning on cheating on her current girlfriend. There's still a lot we don't know about Maggie.
Steve: I hope it will be sooner rather than later, and doesn't tread water for most of the season. There is definitely chemistry there, it's just a matter of time before something sparks between them.
Yana: I have to say, I wasn't expecting for her to have a girlfriend. I thought Alex would realize she liked Maggie and they would get together, but maybe seeing her with someone else will inspire Alex to realize the obvious sooner. I also don't want to see it stretched out, I want to see those two as a couple but the build up is adorable too ....
Jim: I too hope they don't stretch this out too far. While Maggie had said she had a date, like Yana, I didn't think they were committed. I really hope we see some movement forward in the next few episodes.
How did you feel about J'onn's storyline?
Christine: I really wasn't expecting the only other Martian to be a part of a fight club, never mind trap him into being an unwilling participant. I like that J'onn has more of his own story, but I just hope it's not at the expense of James' story, because we didn't see him at all in this episode.
Steve: With the revelation at the end of last weeks episode that J'onn wasn't the only alien left from Mars, I was looking forward to that being explored more. However, that didn't really play out the way I had hoped in this episode and was left rather disappointed. Especially now that it appears M'Gann is not who we thought she was.
Yana: I didn't pay much attention to his story, I felt like it wasn't a good standalone for him because we didn't care about the other Martian enough to get invested. It's all about having the material to feel something or else it just flops.
Jim: As the comic book nerd of the group, I love how the story is playing out. Megan (M'Gann) has a very, very interesting story that they've gave most of the pieces in this episode too, just out of order. To put them in the understandable order, She is a white martian hiding as a green martian who doesn't want to kill and feels like she needs to be punished and joined the fight club to serve and penance (for now). The missing piece is why she's not like other white martians.
Could Lena Luthor already know that Kara is Supergirl?
Christine: Anything is possible. Lena's no fool. Even if she doesn't know Kara is Supergirl, she probably suspects she has connections to Supergirl, why else would she give Kara such unrestricted access?
Steve: I'm sure she has her suspicions, but I doubt she knows for sure. It doesn't take much to connect the dots, and Lena is very intelligent.
Yana: That would be incredible to see. Kara is so worried that her identity will be known and Lena is just waiting to see how long it takes before she realizes that it's kind of obvious. The more Kara and Lena scenes, the better.
Jim: You nailed it Yana! Lana and Kara together are so much fun to watch. While I don't know if Lana is truly not "evil" as the other Luthors are. I'm willing to go out on a limb if it gives us more Kara and Lana interactions, especially if it turns out she knows who Kara is.
How do you feel about the Winn/Mon-El bromance?
Christine: It was fun to see Winn interact with someone else. He's always seemed a little intimidated by James but he seems much more at ease with Mon-El. For some reason I'm not feeling a strong connection to Mon-El yet, but I'm willing to give it time.
Steve: This was probably the high point of the episode for me. I loved watching these two interact with each other. Especially Winn teaching Mon-El some new words and phrases! What's not to love about this new relationship? I'm totally down this this duo.
Yana: I'm feeling a Winn/Mon-El romance to be honest. Let's skip over all the platonic feelings and just move straight to romance, especially because Winn seems to love all the superhero men that we get introduced to.
Jim: I'm guessing Yana picked up on the "You would let me design your costume and give you a name" that Winn said to Mon-el. If Winn isn't at least a little bit into guys (at least super strong ones) they are portraying him all wrong. Though I'm not sure I see a romance as much as a Bro-mance or Hero/Side-kick thing going on.

It's that time of year again. Some of you mommy's are super excited for some alone time, some of you are scared, and some of you might be dreading the upcoming school year. As summer comes to a close and the weather (supposedly) starts to cool down, we start preparing for the year ahead. We load up our carts with clothes, pencils, notebooks, snacks, backpacks, and more until the cart is impossible to push. Here's 5 tips that will help you and your kids get ready for the new year.
Tip 1: Order the school shopping list online.
Who has time to go all over town to 3 different Targets because every one is out of something on the list? Like… Really? What happened to only needing pencils, paper, and a basic calculator?
It's way easier to shop online for everything on their list. Not only does it save time, but ordering online also saves money on gas (everything's delivered straight to your door or straight to the store nearest you). Everybody wins.
Tip 2: Start a routine you and your kids can stick to.
It's time for you and your kids to go to bed earlier and wake up earlier. It's going to take a bit more preparation and sticking to routine than during the summer. Some of you may not have a problem with this. Others are seeing the hair stand up on their arms thinking about that 7am alarm going off.
Regardless of whether you're a night owl or an early worm, find a routine that works for you and your kids and make it happen!
Tip 3: Tackle The Weekend To-Do List
Everybody's in the house over the weekend. That's a lot of (potential) helping hands! Your new weekend to do list should include cleaning, laundry, grocery shopping, and meal prep. It's so much easier to knock it out when you have the time to. When you try to squeeze it in, it's just more stressful. If you're able to share the work with your husband and kids, it all goes even faster. Commit to your to-do list!
Tip 4: Be extra loving and supportive. School can be stressful!
Do you remember being a kid and starting a new school year? Riding the bus – comparing outfits – meeting new people *GASP*
That's a lot to take in for some kids. It's Mom's job to remind them that everything will be OK. Maybe have a few special ice cream dates over the first few weeks or months. Not only does it help them realize you have their back, it opens up some lines of communication so you know a little more about how things are going as they make the transition into their new setting.
Tip 5: Reward yourself while doing good! Shop Grace & Lace and you'll be helping children in need get school supplies.
You're putting in some long hours getting your kids ready for school. That deserves a reward, right? This fall until 8/21 we're have a Back 2 School Sale (20% Off Almost Everything) and that's not too uncommon among retailers. But at Grace & Lace we're doing things a little different this year. A portion of every sale during our Back 2 School event is going to help provide school supplies for an orphan in need. Your next Grace & Lace order could mean books, backpacks, or other school supplies for a young student who's eager to learn. Save 20% and help a child get school supplies? That's a real win-win!

Armadale Open Day
We threw our doors open to the public in February 2016 when Iona and Willie of the SRUC organised sheep themed workshops and seminars. We were lucky to have a perfect, frosty late winters day, with not a breath of wind. Over 170 people attended from near and far and we even had our MSP's and Agricultural Minster come along. Thanks to everyone involved and for all the support we had from our sponsors in putting this event together. Thanks also to BBC Alba for their coverage of our day.

As a graphic designer and visual artist, my work reflects my passion for illustration, colour and typography. I'm drawn to the dynamic qualities of colour and get excited to see it all come to life with bold letterforms and vibrant visuals. I love being in the midst of the creative process while I drink coffee, and if I inspire others with the end result then that's the icing on the cake (and I love cake).

Amazon Turns 20
It was originally billed as "Earth's Biggest Bookstore" and featured over one million titles. Twenty years later it boasts over 270m active accounts and claimsto have more than 2m third-party vendors selling millions of products through the marketplace platform. In that time it has been both lauded and vilified, most recently over corporation tax and staff working conditions but Amazon is quite clearly one of the biggest success stories of online commerce. So what has been its lasting impact? Can it maintain this growth or have we seen the best of it?

As Tom Lynch deliberates over his future with Gold Coast, an issue bigger than the towering forward himself has emerged.
Lynch, as is well known, will be a restricted free agent at the end of the season and suitor clubs are queuing up.
So, on one hand the competitiveness of one of the AFL's expansion clubs is at stake. On the other hand, though, is something more important.
The AFL might have to decide the extent to which it is an entertainment choreographer as well as a sports administration. And if it is both, and these days that is pretty much undeniable, which is the greater priority?
The suggestion of some commentators, that the AFL should stump up money to ensure Lynch stays with the Suns, would once have been viewed as outrageous.
But it reflects the reality that the business of football is seen, by some observers at least, as an environment in which this is permissible.
Whatever happened to the expectation that a football administration must necessarily remain detached from the particular interests of any one team or individual?
As with so much that's viewed through the prism of the modern game, the line is blurred between reasonable, legislated equalisation and one-off, opportunistic 'management'.
After all, the AFL commission has overturned the result of a game – achieved on the field according to the rules – in its boardroom (the so-called 'Sirengate' match in 2006). A player who admitted he should have been suspended (Barry Hall), played in a winning Grand Final team. The 'match review' part of the league's judicial process is now entirely without independence, having become an extension of the AFL football department.
This is an organisation which regards its charter as being at least as much about business as it is about sport. And in business, the ethos is do whatever it takes.
In fact, the administration of a big professional sport has greater freedom than big business for it is basically accountable to no one.
The AFL has a monopoly on elite Aussie Rules management. More than any other sport in the land, it is self-supporting and therefore isn't obliged to observe any over-arching set of rules.
Meanwhile, it is close to federal and state governments, to the extent that it even has its own department of government relations.
So… back to the Tom Lynch situation.
As much as the AFL might seek to portray it otherwise, this is a critical moment for the Gold Coast endeavour.
Gary Ablett has gone home and is now part of the Suns' history. Charlie Dixon is at Port Adelaide. Zac Smith, like Ablett, is at Geelong.
Top ten picks in the club's initial set-up, Josh Caddy and Dion Prestia, have returned to Victoria and found not just a fuller football life but, indeed, premiership glory.
The latter pair, both selected just ahead of Lynch in the 2010 National Draft, provide a parable that Gold Coast players might think about as they consider how their careers will play out.
And those players will include Lynch. Later this year he will turn 26 and he will have a niggling awareness that, as John Kennedy used to remind his Hawthorn players, 'it's later than you think'.
Lynch has spent half of a career with the fledgeling club and, while history might one day tell of him having played a noble role in a worthy cause, he can't possibly know at this point of his life that a full career with Gold Coast will fulfil his ambitions.
So, he has a fundamental – and serious – question to ask himself. If he stays, is it possible he will spend an entire football career not only with a battling club, but also swimming against the tide in a footy backwater?
The choice Lynch makes is up to him and he must be allowed to make it free of pressure. Currently, the commentary that abounds on his difficult choice is to the effect that he will decide the future of a club. Not just any club, but one that is of crucial importance to the AFL. This is a heck of a load for a young person to carry.
Lynch must be allowed to make his own judgement, free of pressure. Just as Patrick Dangerfield was when, in the wake of the unspeakably tragic death of his coach, Phil Walsh, Dangerfield chose to leave Adelaide.
For all the rewards it can bring, football can also impose major sacrifices on those youngsters good enough to be draft-able.
Being forced to leave home at 18, particularly for those taken across state borders, is a significant upheaval for both player and family.
Those who have chosen to return home, like Caddy, Prestia, Chris Judd and others, made a perfectly understandable decision.
And just as Dangerfield was allowed to make his decision in his own interests, so must Lynch be. Clubs lay out their best offers according to the rules and the player decides.
The AFL's needs in its modern expansion process were made clear by the acquisition of cross-code stars, Karmichael Hunt and Israel Folau.
The administration of the time lured high-profile performers from other codes with money: to give up what they were good at for a leap into the unknown. Neither story ended well.
That pair might offer a cautionary tale. In the case of Tom Lynch, let him choose without pressure and live with the outcome.

It all started with a goat…
So I tried my hand today at making goat's milk cheese again. I tried it once years ago with not much success. This is a quick, easy recipe. Some involve a more slow curdling process which occurs over a few days but since I am rather new to this I wanted to start with a rather fool-proof method.
It started this morning by milking a goat. Well, not exactly, my mom milked a goat last night for me but it's still fresh from the goat. 🙂 She has Nubian goats to be exact and she makes goat's milk soap with the milk not to mention ice cream and butter. Anyway, on to the cheese making!
Assembling the ingredients. There is about 2 quarts of goat's milk there.
I started by heating the milk to a low simmer being careful not to burn it. I also added about a pint of buttermilk because it is supposed to add creaminess.
Then removed the milk from the heat and let it cool slightly before adding some lemon juice to start the separation process. After some stirring I thought I hadn't added enough lemon juice when all of the sudden…
A close up of the curds:
At this point I poured the curds and whey into a colander lined with cheesecloth and let it sit for about 20-30 minutes.
Here you can see where it's actually draining and vaguely resembling cheese. This is where I started to get excited. 🙂
After squeezing out the remaining whey, I transferred to a bowl where I then added some fresh basil, garlic and salt.
I then split the mixture, one half I left loose for some snacking and the other I pressed into a bowl to form a "block".
And now I wait 1-2 days while the cheese sits in the fridge. 😎

- Goals: James Tarkowski (£5.2m) | John Egan (£4.5m)
- Assists: Jay Rodriguez (£5.7m) | Billy Sharp (£5.4m)
- Bonus Points: Tarkowski x3, Egan x2, Josh Brownhill (£4.8m) x1
With 80 minutes gone on Sunday, it looked as though white smoke signalling another Nick Pope clean sheet was set to rise from Sean Dyche's Vatican City at Turf Moor.
But owners of the £5.0m goalkeeper were denied a third consecutive set of clean sheet points by John Egan (£4.5m), who slotted home a superb half-volley after Billy Sharp (£5.4m) flicked on an excellent Ben Osborn (£4.7m) delivery.
In an unsurprising Fantasy tale of shotstoppers and centre-backs, Egan cancelled out a first-half strike from James Tarkowski (£5.2m) which had wiped out a clean sheet for Dean Henderson (£5.2m) and the Blades' backline.
The centre-back slotted in a cool finish after Jay Rodriguez (£5.7m) flicked on a well-delivered free kick from Dwight McNeil (£6.1m).
Sheffield United welcomed back a familiar face as Jack O'Connell (£4.6m) made his return from injury as a 55th-minute substitute.
That could potentially spell the end of Jack Robinson (£4.0m) as a budget option for FPL bosses.
Burnley were without Ben Mee (£5.0m) due to a thigh injury, which could potentially rule the defender out for the remainder of the season, while Jack Cork (£4.9m) appears unlikely to feature in the coming Gameweeks. Post-match, Dyche revealed:
Ben has a thigh strain and it is a pretty good one, so I don't think it will be an easy or quick turnaround.
Corky has a reasonably serious ankle injury which is unfortunate and he is going to need something doing probably. We are waiting to find out. He is going to miss this spell of games and possibly the remaining games.
For both of them, we will have to wait and see. It is not ideal but we have had not ideal since we got back in many different ways. The challenge is to stay competitive, which we aim to do.
With Mee injured, of course, yet another cut-price route into the Burnley backline opens up for Fantasy managers in the form of Kevin Long (£4.3m).
While Dyche appears to have lost a key member of his defence, Chris Wilder now has one of his back. After the draw, the Blades manager said:
Jack Robinson has been great for us but that has caught up with him – [he was] thrust into Premier League action with the schedule and [today] was a tough one.
A couple of boys looked tired but to get Jack O'Connell back was a big bonus. You want all players available, especially those who have played in that formation for the time that Jack has.
He has been one of our main players in the last three years so to have him available and to get him through those 30 minutes was pleasing, it gives us a bit more strength.
It would have been a gamble to play him against Tottenham but we were always looking at half an hour max today. To get another body back fit is good for us.
Just after the game kicked off, Oliver McBurnie (£5.6m) had a decent chance to open the scoring, with his shot from a central area inside the box saved by Pope.
After eight minutes, Erik Pieters (£4.2m) presented Matej Vydra (£5.3m) with a big chance but the Burnley forward put his effort wide after evading the Sheffield United back three as part of quick Clarets break.
The Blades responded immediately as Sander Berge (£4.7m) saw his effort inside the area blocked by a couple of flying Burnley bodies.
The resulting corner saw both a penalty appeal and an Egan shot, neither of which saw a favourable outcome from a Sheffield United point-of-view.
Egan was then inches away from getting on the end of a sumptuous Osborn cross that flew between the centre-back and Pope, who was slightly caught in no man's land.
Berge was involved again in the 33rd minute, taking up a good position in the Burnley box but heading well over from a George Baldock (£5.0m) cross.
Moments later, Egan got on the end of an Oliver Norwood (£4.7m) corner but the Ireland international was unable to direct his close-range header on target.
McBurnie reached a Robinson delivery ahead of Long soon before the interval but the striker's flick flew over Pope's crossbar.
Wilder will have been less pleased with McBurnie's efforts at the other end of pitch, however. The striker was Tarkowski's designated marker at the set-piece which saw the centre-back give Burnley a 1-0 lead just before half time.
The second period began much the same as the first, with Sheffield United pushing the action while failing to test Pope in a meaningful manner.
Substitutes O'Connell and Sharp almost had an immediate impact in the 63rd minute, with the defender's deflected cross just missing the striker's leap as Pope was again caught flailing at open air.
The introduction of Jack Rodwell (£4.5m) for Chris Basham (£4.6m) saw Wilder make an unfamiliar switch to a back four, with United employing a 4-3-1-2 set-up which almost allowed Burnley a second.
Rodriguez, whose 70th-minute snapshot flew wide, fired a volley from 25 yards after 76 minutes that Henderson could only palm into the path of McNeil.
The winger skewed his opportunity wide as the Blades were let off the hook, just moments before Egan's equaliser. Dyche reckoned that McNeil's chance could have sealed the game for his team.
It was a competitive performance. We are stretched at the moment. But you get greedy and we had a couple of chances, particularly Dwight's. We [also] had a golden chance with Vydra.
[Dwight] looked a little bit tired, it is the first time I have seen him look a little bit tired but he still finds moments. He put a great ball in for the goal.
He found a moment [the second-half chance] when everyone would have thought he would put it away because of the clinical edge that he has got. It drops for him and he catches it a bit off.
Wilder, meanwhile, praised Egan in typical fashion.
I have been critical of John because he gets in some great positions and that should have been his 10th, not his first goal.
But brilliant finish and to get something out of the game in the manner that we did was good. We tried to drive the game forward and I felt there was something in it for us.
Burnley XI: Pope; Taylor, Tarkowski, Long, Bardsley; Pieters (Gudmundsson 95′), Westwood, Brownhill, McNeil; Rodriguez, Vydra (Wood 68′).
Sheffield United XI: Henderson; Robinson (O'Connell 54′), Egan, Basham (Rodwell 75′); Stevens, Osborn, Norwood (Sharp 54′), Berge, Baldock; McBurnie (Mousset 70′), McGoldrick.

Breakthrough technologies announced as finalists for Innovation Award 2017
World-first solutions revealed as contenders for prestigious international water prize
A line-up of 14 innovative technologies, most of them world firsts, has been selected by an expert jury from a record number of entries to this year's Aquatech Innovation Award to be put forward as contenders for the overall title, the winner of which will be revealed at the opening ceremony of the Amsterdam International Water Week and the Aquatech Amsterdam exhibition on 30 October.
'This year we had 78 entries, the highest number ever,' comments jury chairman Professor Cees Buisman, Scientific Director of Wetsus, European centre of excellence for sustainable water technology. 'Aquatech Amsterdam itself is growing, and it is fantastic to see the Awards growing with it,' he adds.
Entries to the award were submitted across five categories. The jury identified nominees from each category to be considered as candidates for the overall prize. 'The jury needed a lot of discussion this year to make the selection as the top 20% of entries were really strong,' says Buisman.
The nominees have been chosen from entries representing increasingly diverse technologies. 'The water technology field normally focuses on areas such as biology and chemistry,' says Buisman. 'One entrant uses space technology to look for water leakage on Earth – that surprised us in the jury. We saw more entries reflecting the whole trend of big data and computerisation, which is entering the sector slowly but surely,' he adds. He notes also a trend towards reducing chemical use in wastewater treatment in order to achieve more sustainable solutions.
The Aquatech Innovation Award has five categories: Innovation – not yet to market; Process control technology & Process automation; Transport & storage; Waste water treatment; and Water treatment (drinking water, clean water, including point of use). The judging criteria are originality (50%), practicality (25%) and sustainability (25%). One winner selected from the nominees will be announced for each category, and one of these category winners will be announced as the overall winner of the Aquatech Innovation Award 2017.
The nominees for the 2017 Aquatech Innovation Award are:
Category: Innovation – not yet to market
• Bi-directional tidal turbine, Pentair Fairbanks Nijhuis
• Continuous Counterflow Adsorber water treatment, Blücher GmbH
• Hydraloop residential water system, Hydraloop International B.V.
Category: Process control technology & Process automation
• Easychem TOX Early Warning water analyser, Systea S.p.A.
• Sand-Cycle sand filter monitor, Brightwork B.V.
• Satellite remote sensing leak detection, Utilis
Category: Transport & storage
• Flygt Concertor intelligent wastewater pumping, Xylem Water Solutions Nederland B.V.
• Picoturbine water network energy recovery, Technoturbines S.L.
Category: Waste water treatment
• Cellvation cellulose recovery, CirTec B.V.
• Genius total manure solution, Nijhuis Industries
• Curly membrane Membrane Aerated Biofilm Reactor, OxyMem
Category: Water treatment (drinking water, clean water, including point of use)
• Closed Circuit Reverse Osmosis treatment technology, Lenntech B.V.
• IroxFlotation dissolved iron removal, SansOx Ltd
• Sheaf Filter chemical-free thread filtration, Maagan Filtration
Supporting AMREF Flying Doctors
Aquatech Amsterdam donates the registration fees received from entrants to the Aquatech Innovation Award to AMREF Flying Doctors. This will support a project AMREF Flying Doctors started in January 2016 in Kilindi, a remote area in Tanzania. The project aims to: reduce Female Genital Cutting (FGM) among girls in the Kilindi district; reduce water, hygiene and sanitation-related diseases in communities by increasing access to clean and safe water and reliable sanitation facilities in households and schools; and improve knowledge, attitudes and practices of communities to prevent water and sanitation related diseases.

I really love to cook and have been branching out and attempting more complex meals lately. Pinterest has been my best friend in the kitchen :). However, as most moms know, we are very busy during the week and preparing a meal isn't exactly easy with a toddler running around, so I leave the gourmet meals for the weekends when I have some time and an extra set of eyes to watch Philip.
Chicken stir-fry is one of my weeknight go-to meals because it's healthy, quick and tasty.
Here's what you'll need:
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- Low sodium soy sauce
- 4 cloves fresh garlic (finely chopped)
- Fresh ground pepper (to taste)
- 1 lb. thinly sliced chicken breast (cut in one inch squares)
- 1 green pepper sliced
- 1 red pepper sliced
- ½ yellow onion sliced (long way in thin strips)
- Broccoli florets
- Brown rice (I use Boil-in-a-Bag Rice to make it quick and easy)
Combine the chicken, olive oil and garlic in a bowl. Add the soy sauce as you wish…more or less for desired flavor, but make sure chicken is well covered in sauce. Marinate for 15 minutes. While this is marinating, prepare the brown rice according to package.
Drizzle additional olive oil in a large cast iron pan over medium high heat and when hot add the onion, peppers and broccoli. Sauté the veggies for 5-6 minutes or until almost done. Remove the veggies and place in a bowl and cover to keep warm.
Add chicken mixture to pan and stir occasionally for about 3-4 minutes or until the chicken loses its raw color. Lower the heat to medium low and add the veggies back to the pan and flavor with fresh ground black pepper and drizzle with a bit more soy sauce. Continue stirring until the chicken is fully cooked and vegetables soften a bit (about 5 minutes).
Serve chicken stir-fry immediately over brown rice and voila, you have a healthy meal that covers all the bases!
When it comes to meat I always try to buy organic because I want to avoid feeding my family meats that are pumped with hormones. We have Stop & Shop here so I use their organic brand, Nature's Promise. I try to buy it on sale and freeze it even though I've found that its not much more expensive than regular chicken.
In this dish you can add different veggies that I don't have listed. Sometimes I add carrots or snap peas but it depends what I have in the house. With veggies I always opt for fresh vegetables, and if a recipe calls for it, fresh herbs, because I feel it makes a world of difference in the dish…so much tastier.
Another time saver for prepping meals is to prepare them earlier in the day when you have a free minute. I try to prep when Philip is napping, this way I can throw everything together quickly for dinnertime. When I was working I would try to prep the night before or morning of.
I hope you enjoy!
