"I won't watch it."
So Holland Taylor is not a horror fan — never was, and just because she's in the latest television adaptation of a Stephen King thriller doesn't mean she's about to become one now.
"I don't want to be scared by a movie that intends to scare me, that I know what they're doing, I know their plans for. I know they've built the whole thing to scare the crap out of me and I don't want to go there," Taylor says, looking sharp in a printed pantsuit. "Stephen King is such a master, but I don't like being scared — there's enough that's really scary. How about the morning's news?"
Taylor, 74, appears alongside Brendan Gleeson in "Mr. Mercedes," a post-economic-crash mystery that follows a retired detective as he's haunted by an unsolved murder case. Taylor plays Ida, the neighbor of Gleeson's Bill Hodges, a character who didn't exist in the book, but is introduced in the series to add some humanity to an otherwise grim cast of characters.
"When you're reading a novel, the reader is supplying the visuals. And then when you put it up on a screen, you have to make it real — you have to create the reality," Taylor says. "And I think they felt that it would just be too dark [without Ida]. Audiences tend to like someone like that, who we all feel secure with, who we all feel comforted by."
Taylor is an easy fit for the task. The afternoon of her photo shoot, she's warm and talkative, milling about the photo studio discussing camera lenses and records (she misses vinyl like she misses film — "the depth of it"); pausing to take a FaceTime call, and raving about her girlfriend of over a year, 42-year-old actor Sarah Paulson (who, despite her seriousness in character, Taylor promises "has a funny bone").
"Mr. Mercedes," which premiered last week, reunites Taylor with the show's creator David E. Kelley, on the heels of his success with "Big Little Lies" and "Goliath." The two worked together on the series "The Practice," for which she won an Emmy in 1997.
Taylor has spent recent years onstage, including in Broadway's "The Front Page" in 2016, and had a bit of a culture shock when she found herself trekking through Comic Con to promote "Mr. Mercedes." "I'm of the age where I'm going to be grumpy about anything that makes me do my makeup and my hair and get dressed up and pose for pictures," she says with a grin.
But if the writer — and the role, therefore — are worthy, she's forever on board. "The part I did for [Kelley] in 'The Practice' was really a game-changer for me, because that was a character who was in her 50s who was a judge, an intellectual person, a person of high professional standards, who had a very active personal life," Taylor says, "and it was great to play that at that age. At any age."

If you're looking for a quick and easy side dish recipe, then look no further. This Amish-Style Broccoli Salad will be sure to delight everyone who tries a bite. You only need a few ingredients and a quick minute to make this easy broccoli recipe.
You'll love that this healthy deli salad recipe will give you a full serving of veggies, so you should definitely make this side dish for your next family dinner. But this isn't just a healthy recipe, it's also an insanely delicious recipe. You should share this broccoli salad recipe with all of your friends and family. They'll be so glad that you did.
- 2 cups frozen peas
- 1 pound fresh cauliflower
- 1 pound fresh broccoli
- 4 strips bacon, chopped
- 1/2 cup light-mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup plain yogurt
- 1/2 tablespoon sugar
- 1 cup sharp cheddar, in 1/2-inch dice
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Cut cauliflower and broccoli, chopping the stems and cutting flowerets into bite-size pieces.
In a large pot, bring 4 quarts of water and 1 tablespoon salt to boil. Drop peas into the water for 1 minute, then lift with a slotted spoon, or wire mesh sieve, and drain.
In the same boiling water, boil cauliflower for 3 minutes, then lift out and drain, running under cold water to cool the vegetables.
In the same boiling water, boil the broccoli about 2 minutes. Then, drain and cool the broccoli.
In a small frying pan, cook the bacon over medium heat until browned and lightly crisp. Drain well on paper towels.
When vegetables have cooled, toss with the dressing (light-mayonnaise, yogurt, sugar, and salt). Taste for seasoning. Add bacon and cheese, and stir gently until well mixed.
Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or up to 1 day before serving.
Using a smoky-flavor bacon allows the flavor to carry through the salad even in a smaller amount. You can also substitute 1 cup of cubed smoked ham or smoked turkey instead of the bacon.
The step of blanching the vegetables has two effects: 1) It makes the salad more colorful as the peas and broccoli brighten in color from the blanching, and 2) The veggies' flavor is less pronounced after this brief cooking, making the salad more attractive to some people who don't like the strong flavor of the "cabbage vegetables."
The vegetables need to be chilled before stirring in the mayo for food safety reasons.

This would be a great dish to pass at a spring or summer potluck gathering, or even for an outdoor picnic! It tastes like you got it from a gourmet deli, but at a fraction of the cost. If you don't really care for the rawness of the fresh broccoli, you could always blanch it for a few seconds, drop it into an ice bath, and squeeze it dry with a tea towel.

Delicious. I use a similar recipe and also add finely chopped or spiralized carrots for extra color. I add more sugar and vinegar for a zesty flavor and omit the salt. The diced cheese and chopped bacon are great additions to this recipe. This is a good dish to bring to pot lucks.

Medical Student Overly Excited About Babesiosis
November 29, 2000
CHICAGO, IL—The University Of Chicago College Of Medicine confirmed today that second-year medical student Alex Brooks had become unduly excited upon discovering the term "babesiosis" in a microbiology textbook.
Mohammed Loutfi
Brooks, whom faculty describe as a solid student, is reported to have fixated upon the term, having apparently come to the erroneous conclusion that babesiosis bears relation to the similar, but unrelated, term babes.
"I'm almost certain that the word conjured up a mental image of women in bikinis for Alex," said classmate and friend Mohammed Loutfi.
"Alex isn't a bad looking guy, but he's really desperate for a girlfriend, and I think he just really fixates on anything remotely related to women."
According to anonymous sources, Brooks had been studying quietly in the College's Warburton Health Sciences Library, when he unexpectedly came across the word.
He subsequently left his cubicle and approached Loutfi, stage-whispering: "Dude! Check it out! BABE-zee-osis!!"
Dr. Martin Swartzberg of the National Institutes of Health, an authority on parasitic diseases of the blood, confirmed that babesiosis has nothing whatsoever to do with "babes."
According to Swartzberg, the disease, in which parasites infect red blood cells of infected individuals, causes fever and muscle aches, and can be fatal in individuals who do not have a spleen.
"This has nothing to do with cute or attractive women at all," said Swartzberg. "We're talking about a serious medical illness."
Brooks, citing upcoming exams, declined requests for an interview.

Hello crafty friends!
I hope you are all having a wonderful day!
Today, I want to share a super fun art journal page using Viva Las VegaStamps! I have this punched to go in a happy planner. I wanted something to record books I've read on.
Stamps used:
I started with my blank art journal page, and stamped my dragon 1st in memento ink. (On a second piece of paper, I created a mask of the dragon)
With the dragon masked off, I stamped my library card. I masked off the 1st library card, and then stamped it a second time.
Next I should have stamped my library return dates, but I did this out of order so I had to remark everything.
With all the masks removed, I used blick alcohol markers to color my dragon. I also used nuva glitter pen to add a little glitter.
I hope you all enjoy this page as much as I do.... now, to fill it with books.

We all want nice, healthy teeth, right? According to the ADA (American Dental Association),
- over 33% of adults do not carry dental insurance, and
- the average annual amount spent on dentistry in 2013 ranged from $514 – $1755 per person
Unlike ACA policies, dental insurance is not something you can enroll in this month and reap the major benefits beginning day 1 of the effective date. Policies typically have waiting periods for services and these services are grouped into categories such as preventive, basic, and major.
Here at Hartman Insurance Services, we have the ability to compare quotes and offer several competitive companies and policies for dental coverage, most of which offer some type of hearing and/or vision benefits as well.

So you have a breakthrough molecule you need developed, investors breathing down your neck and it's urgent you see this drug through to commercialization as efficiently and quickly as possible.
The immediate reaction may be to mobilize a manufacturing team, put the infrastructure in place and make this project the top priority at the expense of all other development initiatives. But not so fast – before undertaking such a big endeavor, it's important for companies – regardless of their size – to consider if going it alone is the best model or if by working with a Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization (CDMO), they just may be able to reach their goals more efficiently and economically.
Clearly, the CDMO route is an attractive option. In fact, The global Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) market, is expected to reach USD 343.2 billion by 2025, according to a study conducted by Grand View Research, and the pharmaceutical manufacturing market is a key contributor to this growth.
Despite this trend, there's clearly a role for in-house development and manufacturing. For large pharmaceutical firms that already have the capacity and infrastructure in place it might make sense to keep it in-house, without the added investment of a CDMO. Likewise, because of security concerns and regulatory requirements, large pharma firms can be reticent to adopt CDMO models, which can have operations scattered across multiple locations and which may not share the same security protocols and other corporate controls that the large pharma firm may have institutionalized. And, when it comes to smaller firms that simply want a one-off small batch of an API, it may not be concerned with adherence to current Good Manufacturing Practices, so the use of a highly qualified CDMO may be overkill.
Yet the decision to develop and manufacture in-house is fast becoming the exception, as the complexity of drug candidates rises, and cost pressures increase. Many pharma firms are turning to CDMOs to reduce capital investment and gain valuable specialized expertise without having to hire expensive, highly specialized scientists and other professionals. And, with a CDMO, sponsors get access to advanced technologies, equipment and facilities that would be hard to justify purchasing for perhaps an isolated project.
Another consideration is the supply chain. A qualified CDMO can take care of the end-to-end supply chain to free up a sponsor from having to manage inventory and logistics. And of course, CDMOs offering integrated services, can help reduce time to market by performing all steps under one roof.
Perhaps one of the strongest cases for working with a CDMO may be the sheer volume of projects it may have been involved in. The knowledge gained, insights gleaned and combined expertise of many scientists, working on multiple projects can fast-track development projects, helping to avoid costly mistakes and sharing best practices that can ensure a greater likelihood for successful projects.
Despite the efficiencies gained when working with a CDMO, there's no question that The development of an API can be a costly and time-consuming process. One way to ensure that costs are more effectively managed is to work with a single or a minimum of a few CDMOs on a specific project. Having to transfer methods, knowledge and other information from one stage to the next can not only cause delays, but it can make your project vulnerable to errors in transfer.
With these considerations in mind, and determining that the CDMO route is the way to go, the next decision is choosing which CDMO to use. Despite a growing consolidation in the CDMO market, each CDMO has specific strengths and areas of expertise so it pays to do your homework and make sure the firm is the right fit for you. Aside from the specific questions about technical expertise, key questions to ask, may include:
Whether you choose to work with a CDMO or go it alone, the journey to API commercialization can be a long one and selecting the best route to the finish line is no easy task. Companies need to consider all options and pick the route that makes the most sense – strategically, financially and in terms of product quality and safety.

Welcome to the club. Salon Concrete pioneers membership model at Bell Works
Talk to Christine Zilinski about Salon Concrete and the word "transformation" will come up often. As in, an empty space in Bell Works is undergoing a transformation into a modern, creative salon where every element, right down to the elevation of each light fixture, is designed to serve a specific purpose. But mostly she's referring to the intensely personal – and yes, sometimes scary – experience of putting your faith in someone else's hands to change how you look.
Salon Concrete is as much a transformation business as it is a hair-cutting business.
"If somebody with shoulder-length hair wants to come up to something that's lip length, do you know how many people out in the world will have something to say about that?" Zilinski asked. "Their husband, their mother, their sister, their brother, their friends. Inside they want to do it, but they have trouble getting the confidence because all of those people on the outside are going to have a comment on what's theirs."
About a year in the making, the transformation of Zilinski's new space is now all but complete. On Aug. 7, the owner and leader of the successful Salon Concrete in Red Bank will open the doors to her second location. And when people pass through them, they will find something unlike any other salon in the area, both in its setup and business model.
First, the physical – when you walk by the storefront window, it's hard to miss the concrete wall inside the glass with seams torn out of it. The architect and builder behind the space, Mike Pond, designed this gateway to provoke people to notice it and then peek through the holes to find out what's inside. The strategy was clearly effective, as evidenced by the number of people who glance inquisitively into the space as they pass.
The list of services is not only unique to the area, but to the other Salon Concrete. Clients of the Bell Works location will have the option to purchase unlimited monthly subscriptions for four services: barbering, blow drying, coloring and products.
"Especially for the building, it's great, because if you have a meeting you can run down," she said. "People in the building can use this as their personal styling center. They can come in any time and get touched up."
The membership model is one of several steps Zilinski has taken to ensure that Salon Concrete is not a salon carbon copy of her Red Bank facility. For months, she has spent time in the building taking in the scene, talking to people and taking mental notes in preparation for the opening. Her instinct is that what worked in a classic American downtown setting will not necessarily work in a one-of-a-kind metroburb, so she's trying some new things.
For example, she noticed that the demographic of the building leans male, so she's training her Holmdel staff with a greater emphasis on cutting men's hair. That staff will be entirely different than Red Bank's, as she wants to foster a homegrown culture unique to Bell Works.
Zilinski had been on the lookout several years for a place that felt right for location number two. The metroburb vibe was a powerful draw, as she knew right away it was where she wanted to be.
"One of the reasons I wanted to be here is that there are so many inspiring entrepreneurs and so many people doing progressive things," she said. "I want to be around those people."
Among the top of her list is Somerset Development President Ralph Zucker. Zilinksi recalled a conversation she had with him around the time she signed her lease, when he congratulated her and shared his own story.
"One of the things he said was, As an entrepreneur, there are going to be a lot of naysayers. Hold your vision. Because that's what he had to do here," she said. "It's so important to do that when you're taking risks and doing things that are out of your comfort zone."

Global Over-The-Counter Drug Industry
OTC medicines are pharmaceutical drugs for which no prescription is necessary. They are sold in pharmacies or other retail outlets and are used in the prevention and treatment of relatively minor ailments such as headaches and heartburn. These kinds of drugs are not necessarily dispensed by professionals with medical knowledge, though they can have side effects or interfere with other medicines. Restricted OTC substances are generally sold in outlets employing a registered pharmacist.
Over-the-counter drug industry statistics show that this kind of medicines is the first port of call for physicians and patients alike in the treatment of minor ailments, with close to 90% of medical care providers recommending patients self-treat minor conditions and the vast majority of patients taking this option. OTC upper respiratory infection medications represent savings of more than $4.5 billion a year for the US healthcare system, while OTC medications to treat heartburn mean savings of close to $760 million annually, or almost $175 per person, reports the Consumer Healthcare Products Association.
Over the Counter Drug Regulations
The regulatory body for OTC products in the US is the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Despite regulations on OTC medicines, their responsible use remains a concern. The government takes some legislative measures to try to prevent the abuse of these medicines. Cough medicine containing dextromethorphan (DXM) have been widely abused by teenagers in the US, prompting a State Senator to enact legislation restricting the sale of cough medicine containing DXM to minors.
Medicines sold as prescription drugs can be cleared for sale as OTC medicines, granting greater accessibility to consumers. The switchover segment of the market is to show substantial growth. To comply with OTC status requirements, a medicine must be safe, effective and well labeled to provide consumers with comprehensive information about the treatment and its possible side effects. The Consumer Healthcare Products Association reports over 700 over the counter products on sale today contain ingredients or dosages that necessitated a prescription less than three decades ago.
Best-Selling OTC Drugs
Cough and cold medicines constitute the top selling OTC medicine for sale on the US market. Painkillers are the second-biggest seller. Heartburn medicines were in third place. Other popular OTC products include laxatives, oral antiseptics, and rinses, first aid care, sunscreen, oral hygiene and contact lens products.
Topical OTC drugs are another important market segment. Antiseptic cleansers account for the largest part of the topical OTC medicines market at almost 60%, with anti-itch products in second place at almost 28%, followed by anesthetic products, which represent more than 10% of the segment.
OTC Drug Industry Leaders
Novartis is a world leader in the OTC products industry. The company employs more than 115,000 people across 140 countries, with almost half of them working in the EU. Its extensive OTC product portfolio includes Bufferin and Excedrin used in pain management, anti-inflammatory Volterin, fiber supplements Pursennid and Benefiber. Its cough/cold products include Buckley's, Comtrex, and Sinecod along with sore throat treatments Lemocin, Mebucaine, and Orofar. Novartis sells respiratory products Otrivin, Rhinomer, and 4-Way for the treatment of nasal congestion.

PYM AS 2012 Minutes Plenary V (PDF file)
Plenary V began with silent worship at 3:15PM
Latin American Concerns Committee
The report was given by Clerk Dottie Vura-Weiss (Palo Alto). The committee continues to focus on its primary mission of increasing awareness among Friends regarding the meetings and projects in Latin America related to PYM, via the committee's bilingual website (https://www.latinamerica.pacificyearlymeeting.org/) and by sponsoring interest groups at the Annual Session.
Miguel Angel Costop, Director of Progresa, the Guatemala Friends Scholarship/Loan Program, greeted us. He shared how the program – celebrating its 40th year – has impacted his life and the lives of the participants. Ninety-six percent of the Guatemalan population is considered poor. Only 3% of the population has ever attended university – these statistics point to the close links between education and poverty. Education is an avenue for healing the pain of poverty, giving hope through gaining access to the treasure of education.
The three major projects of the committee – Casa de Los Amigos, Mexico City; Guatemala Friends Scholarship Loan Program; and El Salvador Projects, Palo Alto Friends Meeting – are continuing. Please see individual committee members and the LACC for more information on the committee's activities.

Today on the Federalist Radio Hour, Mollie Hemingway explains the religious freedom bill vetoed in Georgia, John McCormack reports from the ground in Wisconsin, and Mary Katharine Ham interviews Charlie Sykes.
Despite being the first right mentioned in the First Amendment, religious freedom has become a controversial issue. "The media frequently characterize these pieces of legislation as anti-gay. They talk about them as discrimination," Hemingway said. "They don't understand the contours of religious freedom very well. They don't understand the history so they just do a horrifically bad job of covering it."
Later in the hour, Mary Katharine Ham, senior writer at The Federalist, interviewed the Wisconsin radio talk show host, Charlie Sykes, who made news this week after his interview with Donald Trump. Sykes explained why the conservative media in Wisconsin is different than the rest of the country.
"I'm honestly surprised why nobody had asked Donald Trump why he behaves likes a 12-year-old on the playground," Sykes said. "In Wisconsin, Donald Trump is not going to have the air cover that he's had from his fan boys in the national media, and I think that does change the dynamic of this primary."

Before addressing any computer issue, I always recommend scanning and repairing any underlying problems affecting your PC health and performance:
- Step 1 : Download PC Repair & Optimizer Tool (WinThruster for Win 10, 8, 7, Vista, XP and 2000 – Microsoft Gold Certified).
- Step 2 : Click "Start Scan" to find Windows registry issues that could be causing PC problems.
- Step 3 : Click "Repair All" to fix all issues.
Setting up weekly (or daily) automatic scans will help prevent system problems and keep your PC running fast and trouble-free.
Wally's Answer:
Overview of Protocol
People rely heavily on email in their day to day personal and business life. One of the biggest advantages of email is its ability to send and receive attachments like pictures and documents.
There are several protocol standards for handling email attachments but MIME is the most popular. MIME stands for Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions. Binhex is the next most popular transmission protocol used for managing email attachments. These transmission protocols convert the attachment into data packages that can be transmitted over the Internet.
When the email is received, these same protocols convert the data packages back into their original format. It is important to understand that both the sender's and receiver's email client must use the same transmission protocol. Binhex cannot convert data packages that were created by MIME.
The vast majority of email clients like Outlook and Thunderbird use MIME. Many are equipped with multiple transmission protocols so an attachment sent by an email service that encoded the attachment with Binhex can still be properly converted by a recipient who is using Thunderbird, for instance.
What Problems are Associated with Protocol?
One of the most common transmission protocol error messages a user will receive is, "MIME Error parsing header." This means that the transmission protocol, in this case, MIME, cannot decipher the email attachment properly. This is usually because the transmission protocol is not properly configured in the email client.
Many email clients and email services will allow the user to enable or disable various transmission protocol standards. If the transmission protocol used to encode an attachment is not enabled, the attachment cannot be opened or downloaded.
Sometimes, the attachment arrives and is converted with no apparent issues. When the attachment is opened, however, the content is not what the user expects. This is most common with documents written in a non-Latin based language like Bulgarian or Farsi. When the document is reconstructed, if the transmission protocol does not have the same language packages enabled as the computer the document was created on, the content will often contain many unusual characters and be unintelligible.
Enabling the proper language packages to work with the transmission protocol can be done in the settings of the email client or email service provider. Often the computer will need to be rebooted before the attachment can be properly reconstructed.

Is Your PC Healthy?
I always recommend to my readers to regularly use a trusted registry cleaner and optimizer such as WinThruster or CCleaner. Many problems that you encounter can be attributed to a corrupt and bloated registry.
Happy Computing!

This week's PetMeds adoptable pet spotlight is on Tribiline. He's an adorable Doxie/Jack Russell mix located in south Florida:
Tribiline is 10 month-old male Doxie/Jack Russell Mix. This little guy (9 pounds) will do the happy dance when you come home, give you lots of kisses and keep you thoroughly entertained. He loves, loves to run and play especially with other dogs, big or small. He is happy, affectionate and very loyal. He does need a person/family who will give him exercise both physically and mentally to keep him occupied; he does settle down nicely and relaxes in his crate. It is best if Tribiline lives with someone with another dog, an active adult or a family with children (not babies) to play with and keep him busy.
To meet Tribiline please call 954-380-DOGS (3647) or fill out our application at www.dogsrulerescue.org.

This week's writing prompt resulted in more of a fragment than a full story. Who knows? Maybe it'll lead to something bigger.
The prompt is "That is disgusting," Christina shook her head.
"That is disgusting," Christina shook her head.
"How are you going to have a house of your own if you don't get your hands dirty?" her father said.
Reluctantly, she reached into the pipe and gripped the lumpy mass within. Even with her gloves, she could feel the clammy ooze sloshing over her fingers.
"You know," she said, "maybe this house is too big. It doesn't seem right, does it? It could serve a family of six. With the housing shortage, I could sell it at a discount, as a public service."
"Don't you say that," he glared.
She'd meant it as a joke. Of course, he would never let the house out of the family. But until that moment, she hadn't known the intensity of his obsession.

C3 Report: Volume 4 Issue XI (November 2011)
A Word from Frank
A big thanks to all who attended one or more C3 lunch meetings this year. I know for a fact that new friendships were made, many new networking contacts were started, a lot of information and wisdom was shared, and great amounts of encouragement were always present. It's time to now concentrate on family and friends during the wonderful Thanksgiving and Christmas times. There'll be much to do next year in the continual effort to be salt and light in this world, but for now, it's good to reflect on God's mercy and blessings to His people.
We'll meet again beginning in January. However, if there's an opportunity for me to speak with any pastor or ministry leader on the church's cultural mandate and the Biblical, legal and practical means to pursue it - feel free to contact me at any time.
Yours in Christ,Frank Kacer

Proverbs 14:34
A warm welcome to: Wayne, John, Tom, Kathy, Vern, Dan, Rod, Don, Randy, James, Gene, Michael, Dennis, Bob, Jim, Steve, Brad and Daron as new or re-subscribers to the monthly C3 Report. If you know of anyone else who could benefit from these monthlies, ask if they would like to receive them, then just let me know.
No November or December C3 Lunch Meetings!
The current plan is to begin meeting afresh in the New Year. Believe it or not, 2012 will mark the 10th year of lunch meetings. Every one of them has been different, with never the same people attending. What's striking is that people drive from as far away as Ramona, Temecula, the coast, and El Cajon. It's a level of commitment that's very energizing and rewarding. I'm already looking forward to January, and the Lord's blessing on our efforts to bring Him glory.

Ministry Tip #18 (November 2011)
Mentoring The Next Generation of Politicians. We're all familiar with church discipleship training and mentoring of young men and women to be godly spouses, parents, neighbors and workers. We also mentor promising youth to equip them for full- or part-time ministry. Have we ever considered mentoring young men and women to prepare them for elective office or public service in the policy arena? For that matter, have we ever spent time to encourage our own sons and daughters to consider public office as a career? Politics and public policy, whether serving as an elected official or as staff to decision makers, can be incredibly demanding, complex, gratifying, and spiritually draining. And like any other legitimate profession, it will rot if Christian influence is not present.
It takes preparation, dedication, and good grounding in Biblical principles to undergird character development, and to understand the proper roles of individuals, families, the faith community and government in just law and policy development. Because of the far-reaching impact government has on our freedoms to worship, evangelize, preach the entire word of God, and to influence the culture around us, it's important we consider encouraging and preparing our best and brightest to serve us in the public domain. Creating a church ministry to do just that would be a challenge, but very rewarding.
If you have elected officials in your church, they can become a rich source of wisdom and experience to partner with your gifted Bible teachers and mentors. If you don't have any, seek them out from other fellowships to share their lives with those of promise in your own church. Not only will your youth be better equipped to handle the corrosive environment they'll encounter, but the foundation will be laid for prayer support and accountability as they strive to serve faithfully for the public good, under its watchful eye.

Ann Romney forcefully but cheerfully responded to Democratic strategist Hilary Rosen's comments about her being a stay-at-home mom Thursday on Fox News.
"She should have come to my house when those five boys were causing trouble," said Romney, laughing, "it wasn't so easy."
Rosen said in a discussion of the so-called war on women on CNN Wednesday, "his wife has actually never worked a day in her life. She's never really dealt with the kinds of economic issues that a majority of the women in this country are facing." Rosen subsequently tried to clarify her comments in another appearance on CNN Thursday morning and in a HuffPost blog post.
Rosen is not employed by either the Obama campaign or the Democratic National Committee, but the Obama campaign quickly disavowed the comment.
Rosen clarified in an email to Fox Business news that she admired Ann Romney's choice. "I admire stay at home moms and Ann Romney. The person I criticized was Mitt Romney for not having a record that reflects his professed concern for women's economic struggles and using his wife as a surrogate on the issue."
The Romney campaign was quick to seize on the comments, given that it was already on the defensive over the candidate's stance on the Lilly Ledbetter Pay Act.
"My career choice was to be a mother, and I think all of us need to know that we need to respect the choices women make," said Ann Romney to Fox News.
"And by the way, let me give a shout-out to all the dads that are at home raising kids," she added.
When asked about whether her family's wealth prevented her from experiencing the struggles of women, she responded: "I know what it's like to struggle. Maybe I haven't struggled as much financially as some people have. I can tell you and promise you that I have had struggles in my life."
FULL DISCLOSURE: Rosen was once employed by The Huffington Post.

How To Be More Like Goldman Sachs, Part Four
Kicking off this week, ignore history and gamble that Chinese companies will grow—but that their favorite metallic addiction will get cheaper, anyway.
"Open long China equities via HSCEI index and short copper Dec 14 LME future, opened at 0.0% (on return basis, corresponding to respective price levels of 11542.1 and 7064.5) on 2 Dec 2013, with a target of 25% and a stop on a close below -13%."
Confused? You should be.
As the bank notes, copper prices are usually positively correlated to Chinese equities….
"This long equity/short commodity trade is a way of isolating exposure to China equity risk via a long HSCEI position, which we think is underpriced by the market given our views of stable growth and ongoing rebalancing there, while the copper short hedges out exposure to China's economic growth, which we think will be stable but not stellar," Goldman's analysts wrote in a note to clients Monday.

Wood Backgammon Game
On a trip to Cairo several summers ago, I spent quite a bit of time in the city's many cafes drinking super-sweet coffee and snacking on shwarma. I watched as pairs of men sat at tables playing backgammon--one of the oldest known board games, as I later found out. My host taught me the basics, and after a while, I could at least follow the men's games at the cafe. Try your own hand at a game of both chance and skill with our wood-grain backgammon set. Also available in wood painted white and blue.

The York Housing Authority aims to provide safe, decent, affordable housing opportunities to people who are eligible, in a manner that encourages self-sufficiency.
Local Housing Authorities are given the responsibility of administering various housing programs funded by the federal government. The Housing Authority of the City of York administers the Public Housing Program and the Section 8 Rental Assistance Program in the City of York, and the County of York. The Authority also administers the Turnkey III Homeownership Program, which is a lease-to-own program with homes located in the City of York.
Under the Public Housing Program, the Authority owns and manages 1070 apartments for rent to low- to moderate-income families, including elderly individuals. The tenant pays 30% of an adjusted income for rent, which includes the cost of utilities.
Under the Section 8 Program, a rental subsidy is paid to a private landlord on behalf of the participating resident. The resident must pay at least 30% of an adjusted income toward rent and utilities, with the Authority paying the difference between the tenant's payment and a reasonable rent.
Under all programs, supportive services are provided and apartments are inspected at least annually for compliance with federal housing standards.
In addition, the Housing Authority partners with various entities to create additional rental for-sale affordable housing options. It has done so throughout the County, via new construction and acquisition, rehabilitation and re-sale of property.
The Mayor appoints the five members, to five year terms with Council consent.

VANDALIA, Ohio — Ohio has emerged as the presidential race's undisputed focus. Barack Obama and Mitt Romney are making multiple stops this week alone in a state that's trending toward the president, endangering Romney's White House hopes.
The popularity of Obama's auto industry bailout, and a better-than-average local economy, are undermining Romney's call for Ohioans to return to their GOP-leaning ways, which were crucial to George W. Bush's two elections. Ohio has 18 electoral votes, seventh most in the nation, and no Republican has won the White House without carrying it.
Romney is scrambling to reverse the polls that show Obama ahead. On Tuesday, he made the first of his four planned Ohio stops this week, joining his running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan, for a rally near Dayton. On Wednesday, Obama will visit the college towns of Kent and Bowling Green, and Romney's bus tour will stop in the Columbus, Cleveland and Toledo areas.
"If this president persists on the road of making it harder and harder for small businesses to grow and thrive, he's going to slowly but surely weaken our economy and turn us into Greece," Romney told supporters Tuesday in Vandalia. He said the Obama administration has put government between patients and their doctors, and is picking winners and losers in private business.
"That is not the America that built Ohio!" Romney declared.
His tone was urgent, but the points were standard campaign language from Romney. His allies hope they will start resonating in this crucial state.
Not even Florida has seen as many presidential TV campaign ads as Ohio, and neither nominee goes very long without visiting or talking about the state. When Obama touted his "decision to save the auto industry" on CBS' "60 Minutes" on Sunday, he mentioned not the major car-making state of Michigan but Ohio, which focuses more on car parts. "One in eight jobs in Ohio is dependent on the auto industry," Obama said.
Four new polls underscore Romney's serious problems in Ohio. Surveys by NBC and Fox News found Obama ahead by 7 percentage points. A poll by a group of Ohio newspapers showed him leading by 5. And a Washington Post poll released Tuesday found the president leading Romney by 8 points. All of Obama's leads were outside the polls' margins of error.
One problem for Romney is that Ohio's 7.2 percent unemployment rate is below the national average, as the Republican governor, John Kasich, often reminds residents.
"We are up 122,000 jobs," Kasich told a panel during the Republican convention last month. "The auto industry job growth is 1,200," he said, perhaps trying to play down that sector's role.
Kasich says he supports Romney and Ohio would do even better if Obama were replaced. But the governor's understandable pride in the state's job growth runs counter to Romney's message that Obama is an economic failure.
House Speaker John Boehner, from the Cincinnati area, told reporters last week in Washington: "One of the things that probably works against Romney in Ohio is the fact that Gov. Kasich has done such a good job of fixing government regulations in the state, attracting new businesses to the state."
"People are still concerned about jobs in Ohio," Boehner said, "but it certainly isn't like you see in some other states."
Still, the Fox News poll suggests there's room for Romney to advance. Nearly one in three Ohio voters said they are "not at all satisfied" with the way things are going in the country, and an additional 26 percent are "not very satisfied." Only 7 percent are "very satisfied," and 34 percent are "somewhat satisfied."
Romney is trying to tap that discontent. But he's having mixed success with his chief target: white, working class voters who are socially conservative and often have union backgrounds. A generation ago they were called "Reagan Democrats."
In 2009, Obama's administration used billions of taxpayer dollars to keep General Motors and Chrysler afloat while they reorganized through bankruptcy. Romney said the companies should have been allowed to enter bankruptcy without government help. But an array of officials at the time said the automakers would have gone under without it.
GM still owes the government about $25 billion. But many workers in Ohio and elsewhere consider the auto bailout a success.
It affected thousands of businesses, some of them fairly small, that make an array of products that go into vehicles, new and used. Jeff Gase, a UAW union member who introduced Obama at a Columbus rally last week, credited the president with saving the paint company where he works. "Mom and pop body shops" buy the paint, Gase said, and now his plant is running "full steam ahead."
Romney notes that many Ohio car dealerships went out of business during the industry reorganization.
But he is having trouble connecting with middle class Ohioans, said Tony Tenorio, who hears political conversations in his job as an Applebee's restaurant manager. In June, when he worked in Elyria, Tenorio said many Ohio residents seemed ready to bail on Obama. Now, working at an Applebee's in the more affluent town of West Lake, Tenorio says those same people seem unmoved by Romney.
Still, the Republican is pushing hard. Romney has forced Obama to run ads in Ohio defending the administration's handling of China trade and the U.S. coal industry. Romney's ads say government regulations are stifling the energy industry and Obama hasn't been tough enough on China's protection of its exporters, two claims the administration rejects.
Ohio, meanwhile, appears to be the only state this week where Obama's campaign is still airing a 60-second ad called "The Question," which disputes Romney's claim that Americans are worse off than they were four years ago.
Romney political director Rich Beeson told reporters Tuesday that Obama's campaign is prematurely "spiking the ball at the 30-yard line." He said Romney is within striking distance in Ohio.
Charles Babington reported from Washington.

Types of AC systems
If you live in Rocky Mount, Williamston or Wilson NC then you need an AC or HVAC system. An AC system provides thermal comfort by altering the properties of air through a process of cooling or heating. Now there are many types of ac systems and units and knowing which will work best for you can be quite challenging. That is why it makes sense to consult with the experts and get professional advice about the matter. Comfort Master NC specializes in air conditioning and can help you make the right decision when it comes to an HVAC system for your home.
The type of AC unit to use will depend on a number of factors such as the area that has to be cooled, the type of climate, the structure of your home, your budget and so on. The most common system is referred to as a split system since it has outside and inside components. A condenser is installed outside your home and a fan and coils system is installed inside. The units are connected by ducts or piping that distribute cool or warm air through your home. This AC type of setup is also known as a central air conditioning system.
If your home cannot accommodate the ductwork required by a central AC system, then a ductless split system is also an option. This type of system uses an outside condenser and separated blowers in various rooms. Each blower will heat or cool the room it is installed in. Another type of air conditioning system popular in moderate climates is a heat pimp.
When deciding to install a new air conditioning system or to replace an existing one, it is important to work with a reliable and recommended HVAC company. This way you will get the right unit for your home. It will also be professionally installed and keep you comfortable for a long time,

This codex presently consists of sixty-five leaves with texts and music from the Common of Saints of an Antiphonal. An impressive large-format choir book, however incomplete, it was the first of a series of three books probably created for the Benedictine convent of San Pietro Maggiore in Florence. Thirty companion leaves are known, preserved in La Spezia (Museo Civico Amadeo Lia), in Venice (Fondazione Giorgio Cini), and various private collections.
It was the time when Florentine illuminators began to conceive miniatures as reductions of monumental panel painting by creating tangible spaces within the initial, wherein the narration freely developed. Two of the four artists that worked on the whole project added their talents to the present codex. The first, Master A, the more archaic illuminator, distinguishes himself by an artistic language hearkening back to the famous Florentine traditions of Maestro Daddesco and Pacino da Bonaguida, both active c. 1320-1340. He was responsible for painting St. Benedict and a Virgin Saint (f. 253). A second artist painted several of the Virgin Saints (ff. 254, 258, 303), and the Last Judgment. This Master B shows his acquaintance with the more progressive tendencies of Florentine painting of the 1340s. His style displays a remarkable monumentality, while design and execution are of superior finesse. His art is rooted in the work of the Master of the Dominican Effigies (c. 1325-1350), a leading figure amongst Florentine manuscript and panel painters.

Hello world with prototyping 101 – PART 3
So its time for the last post on prototyping 101. I hope you guys liked it as much as I liked writing about it.
Before you show it, read the next part of the post. There are a couple of rules for when to show and how.
Only show your prototype AFTER you finish it and you are happy with the result. Showing the prototype before its finished can lead to:
- Prototype discontinuation of a promising feature
- Non-technical discussions leading to "I think that…."
- Changes to the feature that will spoil the final result.
After you have approved the prototype, select a few people from your target audience and test with them individually. Also you need to prepare them for what they are about to see. Remember: this is a prototype!
Start by explaining to the user/player the points you are trying to validate on the prototype (What to consider) and the ones that are not (What to not consider).
Let's imagine that I have a shooting system prototype to show to a player tester where all the enemies are boxes, my gun is a rectangle and I shoot cylinders. All the sound feedbacks are beeps.
- What to consider: The shooting feeling, recoil, camera, inputs.
- What to not consider: Visual, special effects art and sound and animations.
If you are in a team, show it only to some fellow developers. You want to have some developers that never played it to give you more feedbacks about the whole system as you move forward.
That`s it! If you followed all the steps you should have a super cool prototype that has been approved and will make your game great.
See you guys next week!

For my English teach Mrs. Exner
What I Hate...
by Akari
I hate this sound. No I'm disgusted! It's the school bell. School ended. This means I have to go home.
What's my problem you ask? A lot! It started several weeks ago. Since then I hate this bell. And I hate busses. Especially when they're driving fast. It means I lose some of my valuable time... but no. The driver doesn't do me this favor. He's driving fast intentionally. I hate traffic lights too, especially when they're green.
The bus is near to the bus stop. I hope it's exploding in time? I hate terrorists. They blow up everything but the things you really like blown remain untouched. The door opens. What if I just don't go off? No it makes everything worse. I must face the danger. I stand up. Going down the few steps. The bus is gone. It's starting again. My body is shivering all over.
Don't get hysterical. I start walking. Setting one feet before another. The nearer I come to my house the more nervous I get. Finally I'm standing in front of my house. Slowly raising my finger to ring the door bell. Slowly. My heart starts pounding. "You can still run away" something says in my head. I manage to ring on the third try. Too late to run, the door opens.
My dad. I go inside. "Dinner is ready you're just in time." Lucky me! I saved 15 more minutes - at least. I'm eating slowly. Removing my shoes. Jacket after that. To the kitchen. Sitting down. Small bites. Eating slowly. With raising panick I notice my plate getting more and more empty. Licking my plate clean. Asking for a second helping... and again! Go to the bathroom. Puking. Staying there for a while. Clean up. I have no idea what to do now. No risk no fun - I do it. First step. The second. My nerves start getting out of control. The seventh. Fourteenth. Gimme a break!
The sixteenth! Before my very eyes the door to my room starts spinning. The door handle. I'm leaning against it. I HATE door handles! Open the door. Eyes closed. Blinking. There he is. I'm breathing furious. Helplessly I'm trying to reach the chair.
"This time" I say "I will win!" And I'm playing against him. I got 11000 points, he got 25000. I have 33400 points, he got 54000! "YOU'RE CHEATING!" I start to cry. No response from him. Most likely he didn't even listen to me. He's winning. Every time! I reach my critical state.
I want to cut him apart with a big hammer. I manage to calm down in time, luckily. What would my parents say? I'm going to the bathroom and commit suicide, quiet and easily. He won. Why do computers have to win all the time?

Things I know II: How to make soup
You start by making stock. Making soup is a long process and cannot be rushed. You make the stock one day, and the soup the next.
In a large pressure cooker place
4 knuckles of veal or beef
1 whole carrot, sliced in half lengthwise
1 whole onion, with the paper still on, cut in half
a handful of leek greens
a couple of sticks of celery
mushroom stems and asparagus ends
sprig of fresh thyme
4 bay leaves
1 whole clove (and only one!)
4 or five whole cloves of garlic
a few whole peppercorns
1/2 a large apple, unpeeled
water from the filter jug to the top of the pot
Bring it all to a boil and cook with the lid and the valve on at high pressure for at least one or two hours.
For some years when I was learning to do this, I would make the soup from the turkey carcass and the stock never turned out as nice as I'd hoped. This was because I was not leaving it to boil long enough. A good turkey broth can take as much as five hours of boiling. Beef or veal even longer. This is why you need to get a pressure cooker. It cuts the cooking time in half. Since my pressure cooker is very old (1950s, I think) and the seal ring is old, I have to periodically add more water. Don't let it boil dry, but don't be too eager to add water. A big part of the goal here is to get a very concentrated meat essence, so you want it to cook down quite a bit.
The "meat" of a good broth is the marrow contained in the cell structure of the bones. This substance is a pure form of animal protein that, by the time the broth is finished, is almost totally fat-free. The marrow is water soluble and the long boiling time is requuired to draw out all of it from the cell structure. Soup stock is not, therefore, merely meat juice and a soup made from real stock does not need any extra meat added to make it nutritious. It is, essentially, liquified meat protein. Soup made from meat without bone marrow is what the Victorians called "beef tea," a hot drink given to invalids, but having only a fraction of the nutritional value. (No one makes beef tea any more since someone invented Bovril.)
Once the marrow has been boiled completely out of the bones, and the veg is boiled to a paste, allow the stock to cool and strain it through a colander and discard the bones. You can either discard the veg or put it through a food mill or blender and return it to the soup later.
Place the stock in the fridge over night. The fat will rise to the top and solidify as the meat gels. The goal is a jellied stock. The more jellified, the better the stock.
In the morning, just lift the big white hockey puck of fat off the jellied stock. You can either discard this or keep it for "dripping" (later we'll talk about an English delicacy called "fried bread").
To make the soup, heat the stock. If you want it more clear, strain it once it has warmed through cheesecloth.
Bring it up slowly to a low simmer, and do not allow it to boil. An English housewife's maxim is "A soup boiled is a soup spoiled".
Add to the simmering stock
1 or two beef cubes
shot or two of ketchup
Lea n' Perrin's
a teaspoon or so of brown sugar + a little red wine vinegar
dried shitaake mushrooms, broken into small pieces
chopped onion
chopped carrot
diced beef or veal
2 or 3 handfuls of pearl barley
basil, marjoram, red wine
or whatever nice soup-like thing you happen to like. Simmer all together until the barley is chewy and/or the meat is tender. The soup process takes about an hour. All of the above in the second half is optional. Soup depends entirely on what you like and takes practice and commitment.
Make a habit of collecting vegetable left-overs and keeping them marked "for stock" in the freezer. I save the tough green tops of leeks, celery tops and leaves, the stems left over from making stuffed mushroom caps for parties, and the tough ends of asparagus. (These, btw, are not very good to puree and add back into the soup, since they are very fibrous and don't break down sufficiently, even after several hours of boiling.) Avoid anything starchy like legumes or potatoes, since the idea of stock is to go for highly flavoured things. But avoid brassicas (cabbage, brussel's sprouts, broccoli) since their flavour will overpower everything else. Hard fruit, like apple, is often a very nice addition. So is a piece of salt pork or bacon, but remember that these will significantly increase the salt, so adjust for it.
Soup bones can be had in most meat sections and butcher shops on request. In Italy, people still seem to know how to cook, so they are regularly available in the supermarket meat counter. They are incredibly cheap. The last ones I bought were in cello packages and were less than 1 Euro. I used to get beef bones from Gerry the Butcher in Tattenhall for nothing, since he said that no one in England does this any more. (He also used to save me lamb's kidneys and hearts too... the English have forgotten how to cook their own food.) I boiled stock on Saturday night, using veal knuckles and frozen veg-ends, and the whole thing cost me no more than 2 Euros. I expect to get at least two very nice and healthy meals out of it.
Soup-making is an art and requires practice. The precise balance of flavourings, bringing out your favourite nuances, is tricky and depends on your taste, (so the second instructions above are nearly all optional.) I always use ketchup, since there is a chemical in tomatoes that enhances other flavours. I have been using shitaake mushrooms lately, that you can buy from the Korean grocery downstairs from the office in Rome, but watch out; they have a very strong flavour and you have to really like them. Barley will make a soup quite thick and too much will turn it into barley stew. (No bad thing.) A little brown sugar will also take off the edge in case you have gone too acidic, or have overdone any hot spices.
Go very easy on each thing you use, especially at first. The idea is to get a blend that is even and very rich.

Mmmmmm. I must do this more (or encourage others in the house to take up the habit). My parents and siblings do think we're a bit strange for grabbing the turkey carcass after holidays, but they've learned to accept it. But we haven't really gotten in the stock-making habit yet.
Does your second step to make it be soup use raw or pre-cooked meat dices?
- 4:51 pm
Before you make your stock stick the bones in a roasting pan and baste them in olive oil. Add some savory veggies into the pan and roast at around 400 degrees fahrenheit until the bones are a nice nut brown color. Takes about half an hour to fourty five minutes. Adds a whole new dimension to the broth.

A good soup not only connects us to what is human, it can also furnish us "the strength of the hills" - see this quote attributed to CS Lewis:
"Tolkien once remarked to me that the feeling about home must have been quite different in the days when a family had fed on the produce of the same few miles of country for six generations, and that perhaps this was why they saw nymphs in the fountains and dryads in the wood—they were not mistaken for there was in a sense a real (not metaphorical) connection between them and the countryside. What had been earth and air and later corn, and later still bread, really was in them. We of course who live on a standardized international diet (you may have had Canadian flour, English meat, Scotch oatmeal, African oranges, and Australian wine today) are really artificial beings and have no connection (save in sentiment) with any place on earth. We are synthetic men, uprooted. The strength of the hills is not ours."

Beef cubes? ketchup? boil? lea and perrins? Come on. Read Julia (who even late in life used to sign herself, Mrs. Paul Child.)

Well, Fr. T, I was thinking the same thing but then I thought, maybe it's just an English thing?

Low heat (simmer) is better than a vigorous boil. That is because proteins can get longer in high heat. Otherwise, it is like trying to melt a hard-boiled egg. Beans only get harder, and an old rubbery chicken only gets more rubbery in high heat. And the pressure cooker business hardly seems pre-historic.

{Updated July 2013 Fidgets is now call Fidgets World @ The Grandstand. Check out our review of the new Fidgets. There are now more activities and and everything looks even better.}
This is one of our most frequented indoor playgrounds. First of all, it is Big. There are three huge structures challenging enough for the adventurous kids. Second of all there are nice sitting places with a nice selection of food. Add to that are nice details like ample shelf space for shoes, nursing room and toilets that provide slippers in case you wet your socks.
Play structures
There are three big structures in the main play area with climbing structures, slides and ball pool. Our favorite is the first structure with the ball pool. There is a ball washing machine that sends balls in and sucks them back in to the machine for cleaning which the kids love. The other two play structures have lots of slides and are steeper to climb with "bridges" for the kids to cross and explore.
The three big structures for older kids can be quite challenging for younger kids so close supervision is definitely necessary kids younger than 5. There is a tall slide in the middle structures which lots of kids attempted to climb by holding on to the nets even though the nets they used is anti climb, so be sure to watch your kids or train them not to do that.
While the big structures are a hit, the kids love being at the toddlers area as well. Meant for kids under 4 and within full view from the cafe is a small structure with a little house and interactive play panels, a paddling car and tricycles area. Yet another separate area is provided for babies under 2 years old.
Cafe with CCTV
We like the three CCTVs in front of the cafe which is good for looking at what the kids are up to. The floor could be rather slippery when combined with the socks that we were required to wear though, so be sure to caution the kids against running in the cafe area.
Food is quite decent and pricing is reasonable enough and water is free. If you intend to eat at the cafe, order your food early as the cafe can get rather busy during lunch. We tried ordering at 1:00pm once and they had ran out of kids meal. An adult pizza cost about 12 bucks while the kids ham and cheese pizza goes for $5.50. I love their strawberry milk shake and vanilla latte. You also get a 10% discount on the food if you get their members card which is free. The price can add up though, we were there once from 10:30 – 4:00 with one kid. Ordered a latte, a kids juice, a kids pizza and nacho with cheese dip set us back by about 37 bucks.
Party rooms
The party rooms look very spacious and nice with enough space for a bouncing castle. We once attended a birthday party of a 1 year old complete with bouncing castle and led lights and everybody have lots of fun. The table and chairs came nicely decorated and finger food included were those that kids like.
Fidgets is quite a popular set up that could get very crowded on weekends. We once go on a weekday morning on a non school holiday and were quite surprise to see that the cafe seats were mostly taken up. The crowd seems to ease up a bit in the early afternoon.
$15 bucks for unlimited play. Admission is for kids up to 10 years old. Free for parents and kids under 1 year old. $1 dollar of your entrance fee will be donated to registered children charities in Singapore.
Where: 200 Turf Club Road #04-05 Turf city S 287994 (Near Giant)
*Pricing is for reference only. Do check on Fidgets's website for the latest updates.
