Proposed Amendment Could Prevent Gay Couples From Adopting
For some people, having a child naturally is not in the cards. Many married men and women have trouble conceiving and turn to adoption as a choice for starting a family. Many gay and lesbian couples also choose adoption as a way to grow their family, rather than using other methods, such as a surrogate or donor sperm. However, a bill that is being considered by the U.S. House of Representatives could result in gay and lesbian couples, among other groups, having a more difficult time finding a child to adopt.
Bill Disallows the Federal Government to Discriminate Against Agencies
The 2019 Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education funding bill is in its drafting stages right now, but a recent amendment to the bill, which was passed by the House Appropriations Committee, says that state and local governments cannot discriminate against child welfare service providers based on their religious beliefs or moral convictions. Republican Rep. Robert Aderholt introduced the amendment, which was passed on a vote of 29-23.
Consequences For Non-Traditional Prospective Parents
If the bill were to become law, agencies that receive federal funding could discriminate against gay and lesbian couples, along with prospective parents who are not married, single parents, or those with a history of divorce. The amendment was created to protect faith-based adoption and foster care agencies by requiring the federal government to withhold 15 percent of federal funds used for state child welfare services if a state or local government chooses to discriminate against these agencies. This would allow faith-based agencies to simultaneously discriminate against non-traditional applicants and collect federal funds.
Amendment Does Not Line Up With American Beliefs
Though the amendment was passed by members of the Appropriations Committee, the amendment does not line up with the majority of American opinions. According to a survey that was conducted by Gallup, a global analytics company, 63 percent of Americans think that same-sex couples should have the legal right to adopt a child. The bill, which Aderholt stated was created to increase the number of children who are placed in successful adoptions, could actually do the opposite by allowing agencies to discriminate against those who could provide a loving home to adoptive children.
Seek Legal Advice From a Schaumburg Adoption Lawyer
Adoption is a long and complicated process, and it can possibly be even longer and more complicated for non-traditional prospective parents if this new law is put into effect. Anyone who is looking to adopt a child should consult with an experienced and knowledgeable Arlington Heights adoption attorney to discuss the adoption process and possible barriers or roadblocks to adoption. Contact Anderson & Associates, P.C. to talk about your specific situation and the steps you can take to grow your family. To set up a free consultation, call our office at 847-995-9999.

On November 16, U.S. District Court Judge Sam R. Cummings permanently blocked the U.S. Department of Labor's (DOL's) Persuader Rule, ensuring that the rule will not be implemented. In June the Texas court enjoined the rule, and now this final ruling makes the injunction permanent.
In the court's decision, Cummings called the rule "unlawful" and declared it should be "set aside." NCA firmly agrees with the ruling. As reported previously, the Persuader Rule amends the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act (LMRDA). Under LMRDA, only direct contact between the attorney and the employees—where the attorney tries to persuade the employees against joining a union—would trigger the LMRDA disclosure requirements.
While direct persuader activities start the reporting requirements, indirect activities were never subject to the LMRDA disclosure requirements. They were specifically excluded under the law's "advice exemption."
The advice exemption allows attorneys to discuss a strategy with an employer and devise a plan to deal with the union campaign. The employer would then go forward and implement the plan himself. This had been the rule for more than fifty years.
Unfortunately, this rule would have removed the advice exemption. As such, all direct and indirect contact with employees would have caused the LMRDA disclosure requirements to kick in.
This decision is a major victory for clubs and our industry. NCA's concern with this rule was that it would have discouraged many lawyers from assisting clubs when a union organizing campaign begins—leaving those clubs unable to effectively communicate their side of the story during the campaign. The rule also threatened the attorney/client relationship for clubs by forcing attorneys to disclose confidential information and by forcing clubs to disclose things they would not want out in the open during a union campaign.
Most importantly, the rule would have allowed union organizers to stress that a club has money to pay for "hired guns" so it must have money to increase wages or benefits. Such a message is a valuable tool for unions during a campaign.
Clubs can now breathe a sigh of relief as the rule will not be enacted. The DOL may appeal this ruling, however, NCA believes this scenario is unlikely as any appeal would be rescinded by the next administration. If you have any questions or concerns regarding the Persuader Rule or other union issues, please contact NCA's Vice President of Government Relations and General Counsel, Brad D. Steele, at firstname.lastname@example.com.

EGF R antibody
The protein encoded by EGFR is a transmembrane glycoprotein that is a member of the protein kinase superfamily. This protein is a receptor for members of the epidermal growth factor family. EGF receptor is a cell surface protein that binds to epidermal growth factor. Binding of the protein to a ligand induces receptor dimerization and tyrosine autophosphorylation and leads to cell proliferation. Mutations in EGFR are associated with lung cancer. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms have been found for EGFR. (provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010).

Jay Bloom
President/CEO, Bloom Anew
Since 1983, Jay C. Bloom has been providing executive and personal coaching to leaders, managers, and individuals in the private, philanthropic, and governmental sectors who are experiencing a transition in their lives or desiring to strengthen their professional skills and capabilities. Jay also provides leadership and management consultation with organizations that are undergoing transitions with a special expertise in helping them develop effective collaborations and partnerships. He has been described as a social entrepreneur stimulating change not only for individuals and organizations but for communities as well.
Jay is passionately promoting his concept of "returnment," a term he created for aging boomers as an alternative to retirement. Returnment encourages older adults to spend their later years using their skills, resources, and knowledge to benefit the greater good. He's also assisting organizations locally and nationally in finding ways to more effectively utilize this growing new resource. His recent article "Experience Making a Difference: the Secrets of Working Effectively in the Social Sector" contains a number of useful insights for those thinking of working and volunteering in the social sector.
Jay served as the director of the innovative Task Force on Vital Aging sponsored by then Multnomah County Chair Ted Wheeler in Portland, Oregon. The task force researched best practices for employing and civically engaging older adults and completed a report in March 2008.
He is a firm believer that unless you are engaged in your later years you are just dying longer not living longer. Jay works tirelessly promoting intergenerational interdependence and intergenerational equity and believes in building a State and community for all ages.

But before Sunday, when the young Iraqi became an Australian citizen in one one of Sydney's largest-ever citizenship ceremonies, he had made it his business to learn about the man behind the name of the E.G. Whitlam Centre, where the ceremony took place.
"I know he changed a lot of rules around immigration and I am very grateful to him that I could come to a country which respects everyone, and where I am not treated like a second class citizen," he said.
The teen who who fled his country with his family five years ago because of religious persecution, was one of 500 from 50 different countries who became citizens in Liverpool yesterday. His family who came from Iraq via Syria, was persecuted due to their identification as Mandaeans, an ethno religious group of around 10,000 indigenous to a part of Iraq.
"It was very hard for us, particularly when the war came to Basra," Zakariya said. "There was no help for Mandaeans by the law or the government."
Zakariya, who spent six months at the Intensive English Centre in Lurnea as a 13-year-old arrival, is graduating from Lurnea High School this year and has been accepted into a bachelor of policing degree at the University of Western Sydney.
"I want to be a policeman because there is opportunity for different people, diverse people in the police force," the Casula resident said.
Liverpool Mayor Wendy Waller, who officiated at the ceremony, said almost four of every 10 people living in Liverpool Council's area were born overseas, while almost half of its population speaks a language other than English.
"Our residents come from more than 150 birthplaces," she said."This illustrates Liverpool's rich cultural diversity, which is celebrated and embraced by our community.
"Liverpool also has one of the highest intakes of refugees and humanitarian migrants in Australia, which is why we have declared ourselves a Refugee Welcome Zone."
The ceremony in the heart of Sydney's multicultural west, included the naturalisation of 175 Iraqis, 48 Vietnamese, 33 Lebanese and Indians and a host of people from other small countries like Bosnia and Sri Lanka, and larger ones like Algeria, Zimbabwe and the United States.
Zakariya's father Mohamad and older brothers Bassam and Fawwaz were naturalised on the same day. His sister Ruaa Swazi will become an Australian citizen next week. Latest statistics show Liverpool local government area is home to 9,885 Iraqi born residents, the second-biggest group after Australian born.

Outdoor tablecloths rectangular, Cigales print
For a personal quote, please Contact Us
A pretty garden tablecloth
The Cigales print in blue and yellow is suitable for outdoor tables as very country tablecloths. It plays on the well-known theme of the cicada, emblem of Provence. Bands of cicada-shaped calissons move along the fabric, bordered by yellow friezes on which stand out green scrolls. They alternate with other bands of olive branches blooming on a deep blue background, where large golden cicadas rest. It's an invitation to a nap after a good family meal on a warm Sunday of August. These little "singer" insects will charm you all summer on your terrace or in your garden.
Coating, a daily benefit!
If you set your tablecloth as a decoration on a garden table and to take your meals at the same time, you will appreciate anti-stain treatment. It makes the fabric waterproof and avoids doing laundry just for an "accident". And so, you save time, energy, laundry, and you save the chore of ironing. This is all benefit for a use over the length. A simple sponge will postpone the chore of washing until later.
Cigales accessories
Of course, you can compose your table service entirely in the printed collection Cigales. The squared pattern napkins and the bread basket are available. There are also kitchen accessories that you may like to match your rectangular tablecloth. Quilted placemats can be convenient for placing over the tablecloth for extra comfort. Other co-ordinates of tablecloths in different shapes are also available.
So, let yourself be charmed by the song of cicadas, it's so nice to feel in summer!

You can also use white vinegar as a softener: it's natural too. Do not hesitate and follow the example of Provencal housewives, back to fundamentals: it's good for you, for your home, and for the planet!
For TEFLON treated or coated fabrics: we recommend to iron on the reverse side of the fabric to reactivate the properties of anti-stain treatment.

It may vary depending on the size of the dog and plan for the final table at the end of the table that you want to build, but the materials and techniques that had to be the same. A box of dog should be sized to your dog, it is not too large or too small. Ideally, crate should be large enough so that the dog was able to make a complete circle comfortably inside the box, but larger than the dog no more than 12 inches in height, width or depth.
Thus, if the dog is 25 inches long, the crate should ideally be 37 inches long. These measures can be adjusted somewhat to make furniture dog crate end table fit with the decor, but they don't have to change too. To build a dog box end table, required materials will include two by two for the frame, Board wood thickness 3/4 inch white 6 inch, one with matched pairs for adjustment and one by two or by pulling on the door frame. The screen on the sides and door, you can decide one by two or more small strips of wood or use a mesh of wire or screen.
Use a 6 inch width to the sides of the table, leaving a huge gap of four inches or more between the two into the drawer from the top to allow air to flow through and the dog to look out. This is where you can any screen in the area or place that a small Flake boards to make the bar to keep your dog crate end table in a crate.

How to permanently lower your home insurance
Spring is in the air, and that means two things: the days are getting longer, and the snow is beginning to melt. Everybody loves the longer days, but not everyone loves the melted snow, as this will cause many headaches to homeowners across the province due to the possibility of potential water backups in their homes. Everyone remembers the floods in the Ste-Genevieve / Pierrefonds area and other parts of Quebec in 2017, and while we can't prevent a mass flood from happening, we can certainly inform you about how to prevent "micro floods" that can occur in your basement and other parts of your home.
In our last BLOG, we gave pointers on how to pay the lowest price possible when it comes to car insurance quotes in Montreal and in the province of Quebec. In today's BLOG we are going to do the exact same, but for home insurance. We're going to dive a little bit further into how you can achieve this goal, as there are more moving parts for home insurance when it comes to paying the least amount possible with regards to your insurance premium.
1 – Home insurance claim vs. paying out of pocket
Think of your policy as a "just in case" protection. If a tree falls onto your roof? Yes, absolutely this would be a valid reason to submit a claim to an insurance company like Intact Assurance. But in the event of a broken window, for example, we would advise against claiming this, and will tell you why in the paragraph below.
Many people think that home insurance policies follow the principle of "money in – money out", when in fact they do not. Let me elaborate: let's take the example of Mr. Tremblay, who has been insured with the same company for the last twenty years, and has never submitted a claim. So that's twenty years where the insurance company has collected money. Let's say Mr. Tremblay has paid an average of $1,000 / year for his home insurance premium; that's a total of $20,000 he has paid to the insurance company, while the insurance company has paid out $0 in claims. This year, Mr. Tremblay has a leak in his roof, and the repairs are to cost $1,000. Mr. Tremblay thinks to himself "hey, it's about time I make a claim, I don't feel like paying for this out of pocket, and besides, I am a great client and I have never made a claim in my life. I am going to submit the claim to my insurance company in Montreal, my premium shouldn't go up because they have still profited $20,000 from me for the past twenty years." Unfortunately, it's not that simple.
Companies generate your residential building insurance rates from big data; so, in Mr. Tremblay's case he would now be penalized for this particular claim, because he is "x" times more likely to make a claim in the next "y" amount of years. I am not an actuary and therefore do not have the exact equation of how this insurance rate increase would be calculated, but a claim like this will impact Mr. Tremblay's profile.
The point we are making: Mr. Tremblay will suffer from an increase of over $1,000 averaged out over the next five years, the amount of time a claim stays on a client's file. This is another reason why we suggest claiming only for larger accidents, not small issues. It doesn't make sense to claim for such small amounts.
Another situation to avoid is claims frequency; if you make that small claim for a broken window, and then a few weeks later need to make a much larger claim for the tree that fell on your house, now you have two claims in the same year. From our experience, you can expect at least a 30% increase in your home insurance renewal quote from your present insurer. Feel like shopping because you find the increase too large? Well, most Quebec insurance companies will refuse to quote you all together due to "aggravation of risk". Insurers are very wary when it comes to clients who have two claims in one year.
2- Install devices / mechanisms that prevent water damage
Why should you place a strong emphasis on prevention? Because insurance companies will reward you for doing so. Water damage represents almost 70% of all home insurance claims in Quebec, and we can't stress enough how you absolutely want to prevent this from happening to your home; Quebec insurance companies all compete for clients who are diligent home owners. While KBD tries its best to ensure that your home insurance claims process is as smooth as possible, if it can be avoided altogether you will definitely want to take this route. For existing home owners and new home owners, here are four important preventative measures you'll want to take note of:
a) Back Water Valve – it's a device that prevents sewage in an overloaded main sewer line from backing up into your basement. This device prevents sewage from coming into your house through your drains. To give you an idea, just the clean up costs are going to cost you about $10,000 if ever sewer water is in your basement.
b) French Drain – this is a trench filled with gravel or rock containing a pipe that redirects surface water and groundwater away from the foundation of your home.
c) Sump Pump –this is a pump used to remove water that has accumulated in a water collecting sump basin, commonly found in the basements of homes. A little pointer – if you live in an area like Saint Lazare, Hudson, Baie D'Urfé and other regions of Quebec, you will absolutely need to have one of these devices installed in your basement. You will also want to have a battery back up for when the power shuts off during storms that take place during the summer. Too many times have our brokers at KBD Insurance spoken with clients who suffered a large water claim because their sump pump had no power. A situation like this can be avoided at a relatively small cost by installing a battery back up.
d) Water Leak Detection Alarm and Automatic Water Shut off system – A system like this is the cream of the crop when it comes to water damage prevention in your home. Just like a smoke alarm lets you know when there is a fire, a water detection alarm system will let you know when there is a water leak, AND will automatically shut off the water in your house to prevent further damage from occurring. We highly recommend this to individuals who own large houses, as these alarms will prevent six figure water claims, and prevent you from having to live away from home while your house is being repaired.
3 – Keep up to date with your home maintenance!
A point we try and get across to our clients, your insurance policy is not a maintenance package; it's not there to pay for your broken patio or to fix the foundation of your home if it needs repairs. This being said, keep up to date with your home maintenance! Owning a home is a big responsibility and can be a lot of work at times. Keeping up to date with renovations and repairs will not only prevent insurance claims from taking place, but will also add to the value of your home in the situation that you sell it.
4 – Combine your home and car insurance and with the same company
As with any insurance company, combining your home and car policies together will provide you with on average about a 15% discount. At KBD, we place the majority of our home & car insurance clients with Intact Insurance. By insuring both of your policies with this company, not only will they provide you with a discount on your home insurance quote, they will also provide you with other advantages like having only one deductible to pay in the event you need to make a claim for an event that affects both your home and car insurance policies. For example, let's say your car is broken into and they vandalize your automobile and steal your laptop. If you have your car insurance policy with one company and the home insurance with the other, unfortunately you'd have two deductibles to pay, one to each company.
5 – Increase your deductible to at least $1,000
As with car insurance, the higher your deductible, the lower your insurance rates will be. Insurance companies in Quebec will reward you for taking on the first $1,000 of a claim. We really try and educate our clients on how much of an impact a higher deductible has on the price you pay for your house insurance; if you consider yourself someone who wouldn't claim for anything under $2,500, then we suggest putting your deductible to this amount!
To conclude, the next time you type in Google "home insurance near me" or "home insurance broker near me", be sure to place an emphasis on these five points. Not only will it help you to save money, but it will also help add to the resale value of your home.

Mullen Wins JetBlue Account
JetBlue Airways has awarded creative and media duties on its ad account to Mullen after a review, the client has confirmed.
Four other agencies competed for the business, according to JetBlue, which did not name them. Several weeks ago, client executives narrowed the field to Omnicom Group's Goodby, Silverstein & Partners in San Francisco and Interpublic Group's Mullen in Boston before selecting Mullen, sources said.
Major media spending on the brand totaled $9 million last year, down from $20 million in 2008, according to Nielsen. Those figures don't include online spending.
Marty St. George, svp of marketing and commercial strategy for JetBlue, described Mullen as an "outstanding cultural fit" for the airline.
"We are particularly impressed by their retail focus and their strong track record at creating truly integrated marketing platforms," St. George said, in a statement. "We believe they will deliver a unique and fresh perspective that will enhance the vitality of the brand."
The initial request for information in the review indicated that the carrier was seeking "everything from selling flights to driving awareness and stealing share in key markets to launching new products and services to building the success of existing ones."
The winner succeeds the New York offices of WPP Group units JWT and MediaCom, which previously handled creative and media duties, respectively. Those relationships dated back to 2005.

Shoko's Sesame Chicken Salad
A wonderful friend has just come out with her second book and I'm thrilled to be able to share one of the recipes with you. I first met Deb Samuels via email as we shared the same publisher, Tuttle Publishing. We finally got a chance to meet in person and shared a lobster dinner in Boston, which quite frankly, has to be the *best* way to meet new friends. Deb spent more than a decade in Japan, studying, eating, cooking Japanese cuisine. Now, she teaches Japanese cooking classes, writes for the Boston Globe and is the proud author of My Japanese Table book.
I've asked Deb to introduce the recipe, Shoko's Sesame Chicken Salad, I thought you'd enjoy this recipe, as it's quite different than any other chicken salad that you've experienced, especially with the drizzle of sizzling hot oil on cold chicken. ~Jaden
One summer day in Tokyo, deep in August, we were invited to the home of our Japanese "brother," Shingo Oishi, his wife, Shoko, and their sons, Banri and Moro. It was only a ten-minute walk from the train station, but by the time we had arrived we had wilted from the heat. We greedily drank down ice-cold glasses of roasted barley tea, and Shoko had almost completed making a gorgeous cold chicken dish. The sliced, ginger-scented chicken lay on a bed of lightly crushed chunks of cucumbers, surrounded by skinned tomato wedges and topped with a heaping mound of chopped green onions (scallions). Shoko had saved the drama of dressing preparation for last. She filled a soup ladle with dark sesame oil and held it just above a low flame. When the oil began to bubble, she withdrew the ladle and poured it directly over the chicken. The crags in the smashed cukes held the dressing. Sizzling hot oil met cold chicken and green onions. Wow! What an appetite trigger! I like to shred the poached chicken breasts and serve the whole dish on top of a bed of shredded lettuce along with the tomatoes and cucumbers.
You can purchase Debra Samuel's book, My Japanese Table on amazon.

Sesame Chicken Salad
Prep Time:30 minutes
Cook Time:30 minutes
4 slices of ginger, 1⁄4 in (6mm) thick
1 medium onion, sliced
3 boneless chicken breasts(1 lb/500g)
4-5 mini cucumbers or 1 English cucumber, unpeeled (or 1 Kirby cucumber, peeled and deseeded)
2 large tomatoes, cut into eighths
6 green onions (scallions), finely chopped
1⁄4 cup (65 ml) sesame oil
Salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste
1⁄4 cup (65 ml) light soy sauce
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon whole pepper- corns, lightly crushed
1) To make the Vinaigrette, mix the soy sauce, lemon juice, vinegar, sugar, and peppercorns in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat for one minute and set aside.
2) Bring the water, ginger, and onion to a boil in a medium sized saucepan over medium heat. Lower the heat to a simmer and add the chicken breasts. Cook for 15 minutes.
3) Turn off the heat and let chicken sit in the hot liquid for 10 minutes. Remove the chicken from the stock, and when it is cool enough to handle, shred the chicken with your hands. Place the chicken back into the stock in a bowl and refrigerate until you are ready to use.
4) Lightly scrape the skin of the mini or English cucumbers with a paring knife. 5 If using mini cucumbers cut them into 11⁄2 inch (3.75 cm) chunks. If you are using an English or Kirby cucum- ber cut them in half lengthwise, and then into 11⁄2 inch (3.75 cm) chunks.
5) Place a chunk of cucumber under the broad part of a kitchen knife. With your fist, hit the top of the blade once, and lightly crush the cucumber. Repeat with the remaining pieces.
6) Arrange a layer of the crushed cucumbers around a large serving platter. Remove the cold chicken from the stock and place it down the center of the platter. Surround the chicken with the tomato wedges and top it with green onions.
7) In a stainless steel ladle or small pot, heat the sesame oil over a low flame until bubbles appear, approximately one minute. Turn off the heat and pour the oil evenly over the green onions and chicken. Strain the Vinaigrette and drizzle it over the chicken and vegetables. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Fantastic idea thanks. Made it yesterday for my kids and it went down a treat. Only addition I made was some lightly roasted pumpkin seeds sprinkled over the top. My family love these and they're so good for them.

Love the idea, wasn't so excited about the vinaigrette; way too much soy sauce for my taste. Had to make another dressing. Will certainly make this again, but with a modified dressing. The ratio in other sesame vinaigrette recipes is 3 vinegar : 1 soy sauce, not 4 soy sauce : 1 vinegar. And typically a little water too. Really seems like a typo. I found it gross. The concept is great though and I'm interested to see what other types of dishes are in the cookbook. Definitely enjoyed the vegetables and chicken (I used roasted chicken) with a dressing and, for a change, without the lettuce. Thanks for sharing!
I made this for my family last night and I thought they were going to fight over who got the last bit. It was a great salad. Great and easy recipe!
Thanks Jules!
I made this last night and served it to guests for dinner. It was very simple and easy and had such a light and delicious flavor. Thank you!
Hi Jaden! I love reading your blog. Really great recipes and this Sesame chicken salad looks delicious.
I live in New York City and recently started my own cooking blog called "Cookin' with the Kaptain" – I'm new to cooking and would love to hear what you think about my blog!
Take a look and let me know what you think.
Thanks – KK
this looks delicious. I love all of your recipes. Many of them…are now a big part of my family favorites!
This looks so refreshing and delicious! I love the lemon juice in the vinaigrette!
Ginger, chicken and sesame . . . YUM!
Reviews of wines under $5
Yum, that sounds delicious. Can't wait to try it and pick up her new book. Thanks so much for sharing!
Looks so yummy. thanks for sharing I have never heard of her or her previous cookbook. Always looking for a new good cookbook!
This salad looks delicious! Definitely will be making this in the near future!
That looks wonderful! Is that Starly or Olivia Super Star? (ha ha ha)
Oh My! This looks heavenly and I have everything but the ginger on hand. Always looking for a yummy Asian dressing to make. Can't wait to give this a try.
Love that dressing…
I made this last night, pretty much exactly as it was written, with the addition of putting it on a bed of lettuce. Everyone (husband, mom, dad, friend, me) loved it. 2 thumbs up for this tasty recipe!
Sounds like a chicken salad that my family would enjoy – lots of fresh summer vegetables too!
Jaden, would it make too much of a difference if I skip the vinaigrette? Only, a lot of the ingredients for it are not staples in my kitchen and I'm on a budget 🙁
Sounds delicious!! Love the step of pouring the hot sesame oil over the chicken, before the dressing…mmm!
This looks perfect for a late summer lunch! Thanks for the reminder on Debra's book, her blog is very interesting and thought provoking about living in a foreign culture and looks gorgeous! I'm sure the book is the same and I'll be putting it on my wish list!
Jaden, did you use toasted sesame oil? I get confused by the different sesame oils available.
That looks absolutely delicious. I'm all into asian cooking at the moment and Japanese is definitely missing from my cookbook collection…
Jaden, that photo is simply stunning! I can't take my eyes off it!
ooooh! gotta try this! Looks so yummy!
Good GRIEF I just got weak in the knees looking at this. Love!
This looks like one delicious salad. I would love to take cooking classes. There's not much available here. It's a cultural black hole here. But I am determined to learn Japanese and Chinese cooking one way or another. Off to google this lovely cookbook. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Hoo-cha! The hubby's gonna love this one!

This post was updated June 26 at 8:16 p.m.
A former UCLA doctor appeared in court Wednesday for charges of sexual battery against former patients and sexual exploitation connected to his practice.
James Heaps, a former UCLA obstetrician and gynecologist, appeared at the Airport Courthouse for a scheduled preliminary hearing. Judge Yvette Verastegui postponed the hearing to July 30.
Earlier this month, Heaps pleaded not guilty to all three criminal charges, which were made in connection to two former patients. Several civil lawsuits have been filed against him since, according to the Los Angeles Times.
Heaps' legal counsel attempted to file a waiver that would allow his attorneys to appear on behalf of him in court for future trials. Verastegui did not grant the waiver.
Tracy Green, a California lawyer, was previously the only representative for Heaps, but was joined Wednesday by UCLA School of Law alumnus Leonard Levine.
Green was not immediately available for comment.
Lawyers Darren Kavinoky and Jennifer McGrath appeared in court as well on behalf of two women who have made allegations against Heaps. Kavinoky and McGrath filed two civil cases against Heaps in mid-June following his arrest.
"We are here for (the victims), and we also want to bring to light through this process what UCLA did and did not do to protect the health and safety of the women in the community and the women who have made the criminal allegations," McGrath said. "We have an interest in understanding what UCLA knew and when they knew it."
UCLA sent a campuswide email June 10, informing the UCLA community of the investigation and arrest of Heaps. The university's initial Title IX investigation into complaints against Heaps began Dec. 22, 2017.
Kavinoky said a representative from the California attorney general's office also appeared in court, allegedly to file paperwork preventing Heaps from practicing while legal deliberations continued.
Heaps' bond was originally set at $70,000 following his arrest, but he was released on his own recognizance, meaning he was permitted to leave without posting any bail after promising to appear in court as required.
Kavinoky said he and McGrath are handling cases of about a dozen more victims who have come forward. He said they plan on filing more civil cases in the weeks to come.

Disclosure: I am PBS KIDS ambassador and received a PBS KIDS NATURE CAT package. As always, my posts are based on my opinions and experiences.
The holidays are over and all I want to do is snuggle up under a blanket and eat some comfort food but PBS KIDS is challenging me and Dancing Hotdogs family to have a winter nature adventure!
Check out the package they sent me along with a prescreener of the all new PBS KIDS NATURE CAT special.
Premiering on January 18, 2016, the one-hour special has four new episodes with Daisy, Squeeks, Hal and backyard explorer extraordinaire Nature Cat as they;
"Stream and Shout" − Nature Cat goes to his Nature Curiosity List for inspiration and finds number 73: "Where do streams begin?" This seemingly simple question leads the gang on an action-packed adventure, as they follow the stream uphill, exploring new environments and meeting all sorts of friendly critters. When they finally find out where the stream begins, they are whoa-ho-ho amazed!
Curriculum: Streams start out as runoff from rain or snow and flow into larger and larger bodies of water, eventually reaching the ocean.
"Hal's Day Off" − After a silly mishap leaves Hal alone in the big city (well, he does have his chew-toy Mr. Chewinsky with him), it's up to Nature Cat, Squeeks and Daisy to make their way to the city and find Hal! Tally ho! Even though Hal is having so much fun sightseeing, he will need to get home somehow. When Nature Cat, Squeeks and Daisy can't locate Hal, they turn for help to animals that they never even knew lived in the city!
Curriculum: Different kinds of wild animals can survive and even thrive in city neighborhoods.
"Tally Ho! A Rainbow" − After a rainstorm (Nature Cat is sure glad it's over!), Daisy wants to capture a picture of a rainbow for her Granny Bunny, who just loves rainbows! But finding a rainbow is easier said than done, as the four friends trek all over in search of it!
Curriculum: Just after a rainstorm, when the sun comes out, you can stand with your back to it and look for a rainbow in the sky.
"Travelin' Seeds" − When Daisy finds a beautiful flower in her garden that she didn't plant, it's up to Nature Cat and his pals to find out where the flower came from. Their investigation leads them through the park and into the woods, where the clues show them that seeds can actually travel far distances and grow where they land.
Curriculum: Some plants make seeds that will travel to new growing places to continue the plants' cycle of life.
With each episode my kids always want to go outside and with their new magnifying glass, compass and other PBS KIDS outdoor activities we will definitely be having our own nature investigation and discovery.
Some NATURE CAT printables to inspire fun during the winter months.
Along with premiere new NATURE CAT digital content like "Racing Rapids," an online game, new badge and "Build a Sailboat" DIY activity will be available on pbskids.org/naturecat.

Advice by Kaela: Tips on Breaking the Binge Eating Cycle
By Kaela Scott
Q: I have been struggling with binge eating for years and am feeling really stuck. Every time I try to change it feels like I take one step forward and two steps back. I am not sure how to get out of this and how to manage all these feelings that come up each time I slip up. What makes it even harder is that every time I look up ways to overcome it I just get bombarded with the latest diet trends and how I need to work on my willpower.
A: I feel like Binge Eating Disorder is only just starting to get the recognition it deserves in the eating disorder world. For so long, the only disorders that have been addressed or acknowledged have been Anorexia, Bulimia and OSFED which has left this entire population even more isolated and their suffering often dismissed as self-imposed. At the Looking Glass Foundation we see and recognize that suffering happens regardless of what side of the spectrum you fall on and are always happy to provide insight and support where we can.
First off, while every person who has an eating disorder is unique, the suffering you experience as a result of an eating disorder is similar, regardless of what side of the coin you fall on. The same way that we absolutely recognize that the solution to Anorexia isn't just "getting them to eat" the solution to Binge Eating isn't just "going on a diet and having more willpower." Binge eating is about using food to deal with painful feelings that you don't want to experience. Instead of making space for them to fill your body, you fill your body with food so you experience being full of food instead of being full of emotion. What this means is that every time you try to hold back from consuming food, your anxiety will likely kick in because you associate the experience of your emotions as a thing to fear and avoid. While I wish there was a "diet" that could fix this and make everything better (how wonderfully simple it would be if all eating disorders could just be fixed with eating a certain way!), the reality is you have to start learning a new way of relating to yourself and nurturing your heart.
In lots of ways, the idea of this can seem overwhelming, and to be honest it is. I am encouraging you to face yourself in ways that you have likely avoided for a very long time. What I can promise, however, is that learning to face yourself this way will cut out the suffering you experience in your life. Pain is a human condition, we all will feel it and experience it. Suffering is what happens when we don't allow our pain to take up it's necessary space in our lives and learn from its messages. So while I can't ensure you a life free of pain, all these months, years, or decades of suffering can come to an end by you facing your feelings and making space for yourself. Here are a few steps I want to recommend that can help you:
1.Get a journal. This journal is not intended as a Dear Diary, but rather as a space for you to write down what you are noticing. When you choose to go eat your favorite binge foods, I want you to write down what you are actually feeling in your body right after you do it. Do you notice feeling peaceful? Like you just took a long exhale? Warm? Happy? Relieved? What feeling do you notice in your body right after choosing to engage in these behaviors? I am not asking you to notice your thoughts or what you are thinking about having eaten those foods, I just want you to connect to your physical and/or emotional body after you have engaged in behaviors.
2. Do The Opposite: In the journal, I also want you to write down what you notice happening in your body when you tell yourself to restrict or try to hold back from binge eating. Does your body tense up? Do you notice feeling anxious or panicky? Do your thoughts start to race or do you start to pace through your house? Do you feel sad? Angry? Resentful? What feeling occupies your body when you feel you can't engage in these behaviors. We want you to recognize the pattern so that you can stop fearing it and learn to gain control of it. With awareness we can start to take action in small but consistent steps.
3. Take A Few Deep Breaths: I know this sounds trivial and dismissive in the moment but the reality is, so many of us really suck at breathing. We hold our breath, we breathe really shallow breaths, and we ignore one of the best regulation tools we have. Breathing sends a message to our system to relax. When we are anxious, we typically don't breathe properly which sends our body into greater panic and then we look for a coping mechanism that will soothe us immediately (food). Instead, we want to slow things down, and remind ourselves that in this exact moment, we can choose to be okay and we can choose to take care of ourselves through our breath. No other step is needed, just hitting the pause button for a few moments and breathing. If it is easier, you can do this while walking around the block so you don't feel like you are sitting right in front of your trigger, trying not to eat, while trying to focus on breathing. The goal of this is just to learn to regulate your body. It doesn't mean you won't still turn to food, but if we can get you to start regulating yourself, the frantic approach to eating can decrease and we can have more of a say in how we engage in our behaviors.
4. But I Love Food: I hear this all the time in my office, that the love of food must mean we are destined to never recover. I think it's great you love food, I love it too, and there is no reason to stop loving it. My guess however, is that when you are bingeing you aren't actually paying any attention to the food you are eating and instead just focusing on trying to get it in as fast as possible. Recovery isn't about having to eat only lettuce and plain chicken breasts. Recovery is about learning to pay attention to our bodies and nourish them accordingly, including with some of the foods you genuinely love. We want to eat when we are hungry, and stop when we are full. So if you love food, get really clear on what you love. Don't just say chocolate, be specific about what type of chocolate in particular you love the most. If it's fruit, ask yourself what fruit you love the most. Challenge yourself to get really, really clear on what your actual favorites are, and then stop settling for foods you don't actually love because they were available. Respect yourself enough to stop putting anything or everything into your body that is in front of you. Instead, if you're going to binge, I hope you honor yourself enough to choose to eat the foods you actually know you love.
5. Reflect, Reflect, Reflect: In your calm moments, I want you to take some time to reflect and write down the role food plays in your life. Please don't dismiss yourself as solely a food addict who has no control. Get curious. Zoom out and ask yourself what role food plays in your life and what realistic role you want it to play. Try to not hop straight from where you are to recovery. While that is a beautiful end goal, it isn't the next step you will take, so instead try to focus on a small and consistent step you feel you can commit to. Perhaps this is learning to breathe more intentionally and with more awareness, or maybe you realize you need to strengthen the ways you take care of yourself that have nothing to do with food. Whatever it is, reflect on it, write it down, and then find a way to build consistency in only that way until it becomes your new normal.
There is no race to the finish line of recovery. These things take time, often years, but you have the ability to start honoring yourself and your body today by learning to turn towards yourself and not against yourself. Binge eating is a really serious and very painful eating disorder that you deserve to, and absolutely can, recover from. Looking Glass is here to help if you feel you need a safe place to turn to explore what that process may look like for you.

It's 5:30am. The house is quiet, except when the big dog barks at a deer, and the little dog barks because the big dog does. It's full daylight already and will remain this way for the next 15 hours or so. Gotta love June. I'd burst out singing but that would prematurely wake our guests and that wouldn't be a good thing. No, I'll just sit here, quietly tap-tap tapping away on my keyboard until someone else gets up. I don't expect that will be any time soon because none of us got to bed before midnight. That may cause one to wonder why it is I'm up and no one else is. I suspect that's because it's a "Dog Rule" … the first one who gets annoyed with them enough to let them out is the winner. So, I always start out my day as a winner. I've never looked at it that way before just this minute, so it's a good thing. I should thank the dogs, don't you think? I'll give them treats, later.
Lydia spent the night so she could visit with Maryssa and get as much visiting in as possible. They don't see each other very often so we were prepared to use severe force to curtail the late night gabfest, but both were so tired they just went right to sleep, no argument.
Last night Daniel took all the kids to '13 Nights On The River' in front of the old court-house in St. Helens. That's the court-house Wynette worked in for half her life, in an office overlooking the Columbia River. She was a court reporter so when she wasn't in court, reporting, she was in her office staring out the window because she had nothing else to do.
13 Nights is an event much like a street fair where the streets are closed around the square in front of the courthouse, and vendors take over. At the gazebo, down by the river, professional entertainers take turns showing their stuff. For this reason I strongly feel the event is misnamed because not once is anyone really ON the river, at any time, unless, of course, they've spent too long at the beer garden. This "garden" is cleverly elevated above the children's play ground in order to weed out the truly inebriated, and the truly stupid, as they can easily tumble over the low fence onto the teeter totter below, thereby improving the town's gene pool. Those who frequent beer gardens are unaware of this benefit for the others who don't.
I was going through pictures with Steffani last night and discovered that I miss my East Coast Girls and Guys so here's a "Howdy" to y'all from Out West. Love you all. I'm going to wear my cowboy boots for a little while to keep memories of my visit current. Might wear my string tie, too. I may, or may not, wear underwear so you'll just have to wonder about that.
Steffani was the first up this morning and interrupted my morning nap, but that's OK. I was expecting someone to eventually get up. She was happy the coffee was already made and I was happy to learn that she likes creamers, same as me. Her favorite is hazelnut, same as me. I think that's a genetic connection.
Eventually, everyone filtered out of the bedrooms, Lydia and Maryssa last. At 8:30 Jennie, Dan, Cedric, and Jeran arrived, and we commenced cooking everything in the kitchen refrigerator. I have to designate the 'kitchen' because we have a garage refrigerator, too. I cooked all the eggs, and Diane cooked all the bacon. Jennie brought hash browns. It was a good meal enjoyed by all, unless some of them were lying.
About 11:00 Bob, Steffani, and Maryssa departed for Hillsboro to attend the college recruiting 'thing' for softball. Maryssa is going to be a junior in the fall. The rest of us, except Jennie, will go in later this afternoon to watch her play in the All Star game at Hillsboro Stadium. Tomorrow is tournament day for both Lydia, in Rainier, and Maryssa at the Hillsboro fairgrounds. Maryssa is also playing Sunday, so we will get to see her play then. It's going to be a busy weekend for sure.
Dan just left to take the boys to a movies, Jennie left to go to work, and Diane just left. So, I'm home alone with serious thoughts about using some of my more dangerous power tools to see what happens. First, however, I gotta mow the yard. I can only do that when I'm home alone. It's some sort of rule that everyone voted on one day when I was sleeping. Another rule is that I'm not allowed to vote on anything that involves me, so they let me sleep.
It's now 3:30 pm and I just finished mowing the yard. You need to know that. It took me 3 hours. You wouldn't think that riding around on a lawn mower for 3 hours would make you tired, but it does because you're always trying to keep it going straight, except for the corners, so it's a brutal exercise.
… long pause here …
It's now 11:11 pm, and we just got home from Maryssa's ball game at Hillsboro Stadium. It was an all-star event, and some of her old teammates were on the opposing team, so it wasn't about the win … it was about the experience. Maryssa did OK … she went 2 for 4, I think. One single, and a double off a ball that bounced over the left field fence. She also played short stop and second base. It was fun to watch. Here's the swing that got the double …
After the game, we all went to Fultano's Pizza in Scappoose … that's the new one across from Fred Meyer, next to Les Schwab on the east side of the highway. Diane and I had a turkey club sandwich which was very, very good, and very, very filling. I'm stuffed to overflowing. And tired. A lot of things happened, and were revealed during dinner that I was supposed to remember for this, but I can't remember all of them. Most importantly, I think, is that Maryssa didn't realize the that the vice grips on the hot water faucet was something she could turn on. Apparently she's not allowed to touch tools at home, so that carried over to her visit here. Consequently, she waited a long time for the water to get hot and was finally saved when she caught Diane walking down the hall who explained the significance of the vice grips. She keeps reminding me that it needs to be fixed, but she doesn't like my quick fix, to make them match by getting another pair of vice grips. That's a story for another day.
Now it's bedtime …

Auxetic materials have a negative Poisson's ratio; they get thinner when compressed and thicker when stretched, which can lead to improved mechanical properties such as increased energy absorption and resistance to indentation. A potential application of these materials is protective sport equipment, where impact forces, and hence the risk of injury, can be reduced. Existing work shows this potential but involves time-consuming development and experimental testing of material samples. The aim ...

Psalm 46:10 'Be still and know that I am God.'
A mysterious and endearing quality of art and music is that they can open a door within us to a stillness in which we can inwardly sense the knowing of God. For ultimately this knowing is not a theory in our heads, but the kind of knowing that ripples through our being in a way in which we most probably don't understand and yet we can say of it 'I just know'.
'Still' is by the Scottish painter Alison Watt OBE (b. 1965), and is hung behind the altar in the Memorial chapel of Old St. Paul's Episcopal church in Edinburgh. If ever you have a few moments free in the centre of Edinburgh, or arrive by train to the central Waverley Station it is conveniently just across the road from the back entrance to the station. The church is usually open for visitors, offering a respite from the vibrancy and noise of the city centre by the contrastingly silent and poignantly serene space which is this chapel – dedicated in memory of those fallen in World War 1. It is a dark space which holds both the sadness of the memory of those who gave their lives, and the light of hope through the risen Christ.
This unique work somehow expresses the sense of beauty and light and continuing movement of the spirit, through its enigmatic focus on folds of fabric. The work is a quadriptych (a work in four parts) 12 ft by 12 ft, and so naturally echoes the cross in its layout, a reminder of the ultimate sacrifice taken by Christ. The theme of the painting is hanging drapery. The implication is that the cloth is that of the shrouds of Jesus, though what hangs behind it is only alluded to. Certainly the subtle implication is of a body beneath, causing the shaping and the folds. Watt says of the work: ''Although the body is not explicitly represented, it's still echoed in the landscape of the cloth. The paintings are about an absent presence.'
An absent presence – something we can't see or physically perceive and yet we know and sense is there. And so it was for those who experienced that first Easter morning – the confusion of a mysterious absent presence. It is that very quality which, without words or analysis, settles within me as I sit with this work of art.
When I first saw this painting I felt mesmerised by the beauty and the impact of the white simplicity of the hangings amidst the stark silence of the chapel. It stills me, and yet the stillness is not rigid but full of gentle movement and flow. The meaning is not obvious and yet in my unknowing it offers me opportunity to sit and just to absorb. It offers that doorway to 'Be still and know that I am God.'
I often like to pop in when I am back in my home town; By stepping aside from all that energises the centre of town into the entrancing beauty and stillness of being in that place, I experience a way into the serenity of prayer which settles and recharges my inner resources through this beautiful work of art.

Alison Watt is the youngest artist to have had a solo exhibition at the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art (2000) and to serve as an Associate Artist at the National Gallery, London (2006-8). For Still, she won the ACE (Art and Christianity Enquiry) award for a Commissioned Artwork in Ecclesiastical Space in 2005. See:

"Following the election of Donald Trump, The New York Times' public editor wrote that the paper will be making a conscious effort to not be a "an echo chamber of liberal intellectualism." The Huffington Post reported Monday that Politico's Glenn Thrush, who was exposed in WikiLeaks emails sending stories to Hillary Clinton staffers before publication, will be joining the Times to cover the White House.
"We're thrilled that Glenn Thrush is joining The Times," Elisabeth Bumiller, The New York Times's Washington bureau chief, told The Huffington Post. "He's a premier political journalist, a master of breaking news and long-form story telling and a stellar addition to our White House team."
While Bumiller described Thrush as a "premier political journalist," in one email to Hillary Clinton's campaign chairman John Podesta, Thrush chose to describe himself as a "hack."
"No worries Because I have become a hack I will send u the whole section that pertains to u," Thrush wrote to Podesta in an April 2015 email. "Please don't share or tell anyone I did this Tell me if I fucked up anything."
Thrush's email included five paragraphs of a story pertaining to Podesta, and Podesta replied to Thrush telling him there were "no problems" with the writing. Those paragraphs appeared in a May story "Hillary's big-money dilemma."
