The first is Rewardical which will show you online merchants, hundreds of them who offer Rewardicals on any of over 80,000 items and services. Their other search engine is Localvantia which is a huge opportunity for SFI affiliates as they add thousands of local offline stores to the search system.
Every new local store added the Localvantia Search Engine or online store added the Rewardical Search will pay you 1 point for every 10 points the merchant hands out. Local stores and services like the Dallas Texas Contractor in the image below. As well as hundreds of global-local merchants. Imagine a merchant doing 20,000 in monthly sales, handing out 1,000 Rewardicals earning you 100 Rewardicals just for the introduction? How many local and online merchants could you introduce to the program?
You can see many Rewardicals online merchants in the image below. The green number on the right side shows how many Rewardical shopper rewards program tokens are earned per $20 spent with the merchant. In addition, if you are an SFI Affiliate and recruit friends and family you earn 1 reward point for every 10 they earn. I personally am already earning nearly 4,000 points a month from this alone.
Just look for retailers in Rewardical Search or with Localvantia Offline Search Engine and shop for the things you already but and BAM!!! You earn cash value rewards points you can also redeem for any of the thousands of products on TripleClicks.

Time Is Like Jelly
Question: Sometimes a person experiences critical states when he feels like he has one second given to him for a prayer, and if he misses it, he could spend years waiting for another opportunity. What can a person do to avoid this?
Answer: You blame time for everything, but time is not the problem. What matters is the lack of attention and sensitivity in your heart. One moment can last an hour.
You gradually will begin to feel that the quality of time completely depends on your attitude and perception. Time stretches so much that a multitude of states can fit into a second. You enter this moment as if it were jelly and begin examining it as if by touch.

Previous medical applications of -Amanitin have been limited due to its liver toxicity10. However, we found that -Amanitin-based antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) are CFTR-Inhibitor-II highly effective therapeutic agents with reduced toxicity11. Here, we display that low doses of -Amanitin-conjugated anti-EpCAM (Epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecule) antibody lead to total tumour regression in murine models of human being CRC with hemizygous deletion of gene happens frequently in human being cancers (Fig. 1a). We identified as an essential gene in the proximity of (Fig. 1b). Concomitant deletion of happens in virtually all the human being colorectal tumours harbouring hemizygous deletion of in human being cancers. b, Schematic diagram of genes adjacent to in human being genome. c, Concomitant deletion of in human being CRCs harbouring hemizygous loss of copy quantity versus mRNA manifestation in TCGA and CCLE databases. Pearson correlation coefficient (value are displayed. e, POLR2A protein levels in matched normal and CRC cells samples. Error bars, s.d. f, g, Copy figures (f) and relative mRNA manifestation levels (g) of in human being CRC cell lines. Data are mean and s.d. of three self-employed experiments. h, Protein levels of POLR2A and p53 in human being CRC cell lines. Among the twelve subunit in human being RNA polymerase II complex, encodes the largest subunit that is indispensable for the polymerase activity in mRNA synthesis. Inhibiting POLR2A with a specific inhibitor, -Amanitin, causes considerable cell death, and homozygous deletion of is definitely lethal in human being cells9,15. We found that 104 (53%) from 195 CRC instances bear hemizygous loss of the 17p13 region, resulting in concomitant deletion of and (Fig. 1c). However, no homozygous deletion of was observed, consistent with the notion that is essential for cell survival. Analysis of TCGA and CCLE databases revealed that manifestation of is tightly correlated with its gene copy quantity (Fig. 1d). This positive correlation was also validated in twenty pairs of matched normal and CRC cells samples and human being CRC cells microarray (Fig. 1e and Extended Data Fig. 1). POLR2Aloss (hemizygous loss) cell lines indicated POLR2A proteins at significantly lower levels than POLR2Aneutral cell lines (Fig. CFTR-Inhibitor-II 1fCh). Unlike POLR2A, p53 levels are determined by post-transcriptional and post-translational events16. Despite a correlation between copy quantity and mRNA manifestation, p53 protein levels are not associated with its gene copy numbers in human being CRC (Prolonged Data Fig. 2 and Fig. 1h). To assess the level of sensitivity of cells to POLR2A inhibition, a panel of POLR2Aneutral (HCT116, SW480) and POLR2Aloss (SW837, SNU283) cells were treated with -Amanitin. Treatment of -Amanitin at high concentrations ( 1g ml?1) caused complete cell death in all four cell lines. However, at concentrations from 0 to 1 1.0 g ml?1, -Amanitin inhibition had significantly higher levels of cell-killing effect on the POLR2Aloss cells than within the POLR2Aneutral cells (Fig. 2a, b). The half-maximum inhibitory concentration (IC50) was ~1.0 g ml?1 for the POLR2Aneutral cells, which was ~10-fold greater than that of the POLR2Aloss cells. By contrast, the POLR2Aloss cells did not show any higher level of sensitivity to the treatment of actinomycin D, a nonspecific transcription inhibitor (Extended Data Fig. 3a). In immediate competition assays, the POLR2Aneutral cells (HCT116, SW480) stably expressing POLR2A shRNAs just had modestly decreased proliferation, in comparison to that of the matching cells expressing control shRNAs (Prolonged Data Fig. 3b, c). Nevertheless, silencing POLR2A within the POLR2Aloss cells (SNU283, SW837) resulted in markedly decreased proliferation. We produced HCT116 and SNU283 cell lines stably expressing doxycycline (Dox)-inducible POLR2A shRNAs (Prolonged Data Fig. 3d). Despite significant knockdown of SERK1 POLR2A, HCT116 cells continuing to proliferate, whereas SNU283 cells exhibited serious G1 cell routine arrest and apoptosis (Fig. 2c, d and Prolonged Data Fig. 3eCg). Around 50% of reduction in POLR2A appearance CFTR-Inhibitor-II (30C100 ng ml?1 of Dox) remarkably reduced the proliferation of SNU283 cells, but only had a modest influence on HCT116 cells (Fig. 2d). Outcomes of rescue tests demonstrated that continuous re-expression of exogenous POLR2A in SNU283 and SW837 cells restored their level of resistance to -Amanitin up to level much like that of the POLR2Aneutral cells (Fig. 2e, f and CFTR-Inhibitor-II Prolonged Data Fig. 4). Open up in another window Amount 2 POLR2Aloss cells are extremely sensitive towards the POLR2A inhibitiona, b, POLR2Aloss cells (SW837, SNU283).

In a joint statement, Agriculture Minister Stephane Le Foll, Ecology Minister Delphine Batho and Health and Social Affairs Minister Marisol Touraine said they had asked the National Agency for Health Safety (ANSES) to investigate the finding.
"Depending on ANSES's opinion, the government will urge the European authorities to take all necessary measures to protect human and animal health," they said.
"(The measures) could go as far as invoking emergency suspension of imports of NK603 corn to Europe pending a re-examination of this product on the basis of enhanced assessment methods."
Earlier, French scientists led by Gilles-Eric Seralini at the University of Caen in Normandy said a study to be published later Wednesday had found that rats which had been fed with NK603 corn developed tumours.
NK603 is a corn, also called maize, made by US agribusiness giant Monsanto.
It has been engineered to make it resistant to Roundup Ready, a herbicide, thus enabling farmers to douse fields with the weed-killer in a single go.
Genetically modified (GM) crops are widely grown in North America, Brazil and China but are a hot-button issue in Europe, where their introduction has been tightly constrained.
Green groups say the crops could be dangerous to health and the environment, although this claim has so far found no traction in large-scale studies.
In 2009, the European Food Safety Agency (EFA) panel on GM organisms determined that NK603 was "as safe as conventional maize".
"Maize NK603 and derived products are unlikely to have any adverse effect on human and animal health in the context of the intended uses," it said, delivering a judgement based in part on a 90-day feeding study on rats.

If it don't make dollars, then it don't make sense. Alistair Overeem (pictured) makes plenty of dollars, and that's why it might not make sense for the UFC to keep the heavyweight around.
After Overeem was TKO'd by Ben Rothwell in the first round on Friday at UFC Fight Night 50, a 3-1 longshot he was supposed to easily dispose of, many wondered if that was the last time Overeem would ever get a sniff of the octagon.
"No answer to your question on Alistiar, but Ben looked good tonight," UFC president Dana White responded during the Fox Sports 1 post-fight show when asked of Overeem's future. "We'll see what happens. I don't make these decisions tonight, you know that."
Overeem joined the UFC with much hoopla back in 2011, and immediately lived up to the hype by retiring Brock Lesnar to earn a shot at then-heavyweight champion Junior dos Santos.
UFC 141 was the last monumental moment in Overeem's UFC career.
"The Demolition Man" proceeded to flunk his random pre-fight drug test for elevated levels of testosterone and was suspended for nine months. Overeem lost his chance at dos Santos and the UFC lost their chance at a major pay-per-view payday.
Speaking of paydays…
In five UFC fights, Overeem has pocketed at least $1,650,00 in disclosed earnings (UFC 141: $264,285 + $121,428 win bonus, UFC 156: $285,714, UFC Fight Night 26: $285,714, UFC 169: $285,714 + $121,428 win bonus, UFC Fight Night 50: $285,714).
Overeem's last two paychecks are estimates because the New Jersey State Athletic Control Board, the committee who oversaw UFC 169, doesn't release fighter salaries and it hasn't been announced what Overeem made in last night's loss, so we used a conservative number by going with what he earned to show in his second and third outings.
Regardless, the important numbers to examine are glaring. Notice there are only two win bonuses listed because the 34-year-old has only won twice in five UFC appearances. Furthermore, two of his fights were on free television and he didn't headline either of them.
That's a lot of zeros to put on a paycheck for a non-PPV headliner who doesn't win.
FYI, bantamweight champ Ronda Rousey, arguably the UFC's biggest superstar, made just $120,000 in disclosed salary for knocking out Alexis Davis the last time she took center stage.
If it don't make dollars, then it don't make sense. Even the world's worst number crunchers can see the UFC is losing the numbers game to Overeem.

Former multiple Fed Cup champions Australia and Italy needed to power through dramatic ties to advance from World Group II into the World Group Play-offs, and Romania and 2002 Fed Cup winner Slovakia joined them in the winner's circle.
The World Group Play-offs will take place in April, containing these four victorious teams as well as the four losing teams from this week's World Group I ties, to determine who will play in World Group I in 2019.
Here are the final results:
Australia 3 - 2 Ukraine
Romania 3 - 1 Canada (fourth singles not played)
Italy 3 -1 Spain (insurmountable lead)
Slovakia 4 - 1 Russia
Seven-time Fed Cup champions Australia had to go down to the wire to subdue a scrappy Ukrainian team, eventually emerging as 3-2 victors to move into the World Group Play-offs.
Coming into Sunday having split the opening singles, Australia took a 2-1 lead via World No. 16 Ashleigh Barty's comprehensive 6-2, 6-3 win over rapidly rising 15-year-old Marta Kostyuk.

But Aussie No.2 Daria Gavrilova was stunned for the second day in a row, as Nadiia Kichenok, currently unranked in singles, rallied for a 4-6, 6-2, 6-3 victory over the 26th-ranked player in the world, to level the tie at 2 matches apiece.
In the end, though, the doubles pairing of Barty and Casey Dellacqua came through for the Australians when needed, as the four-time Grand Slam finalists eased past the sibling duo of Lyudmyla and Nadiia Kichenok, 6-3, 6-4, in 65 minutes. The big match experience of Barty and Dellacqua paid huge dividends as the tie concluded, and they never faced a break point in the match.
Dellacqua celebrated her 33rd birthday on Sunday with the exciting match. "There's nothing more special being out here representing Australia, especially on my birthday," Dellacqua said to FedCup.com, "and with my best mate, with my team, with my family here, so it's really special and something I'll remember."
"For me being a little bit older, not knowing how much longer I will play for, not knowing how many more of these moments that I'll get...I really appreciated the moment and the experience," an emotional Dellacqua continued.

It was an emotional weekend for Italy, as the four-time Fed Cup champions (all since 2006) moved past Spain, who won five Fed Cup titles during the 1990s.
The tussle between two titans of Fed Cup was at 1-1 coming into Sunday's matches, and the day opened with a battle between two former Top 10 players. Ultimately, 2012 Roland Garros runner-up Sara Errani claimed victory over recent Australian Open quarter-finalist Carla Suarez Navarro, 6-3, 3-6, 6-3. Each player held 14 break points, but Errani converted more of them by a margin of 10 to eight, to get the win.
That set the stage for a gutsy victory by Italy's Deborah Chiesa to clinch the tie, winning a dramatic final-set tiebreak en route to a 6-4, 2-6, 7-6(7) win over Lara Arruabarrena.
Arruabarrena led 4-1 in the final set before Chiesa pulled it back to 4-4. Then, in the tiebreak, Chiesa led 5-1 before Arruabarrena tied it at 5-5. The Italian had a match point at 6-5, but Arruabarrena won two points on serve to lead 7-6, giving the Spaniard a match point.
But Chiesa held firm on serve, getting to 7-7 and then hitting an ace for 8-7 to set up a second match point. The Italian converted that point, and dissolved into tears after a stirring encounter.

2002 Fed Cup champions Slovakia also advanced to the World Group Play-offs, dispatching Russia 3-1 after the singles. The Russians have won four Fed Cup titles, all since 2004, but they were undone by a deep Slovakian squad, whose three wins came courtesy of three different players.
After World No.18 Magdalena Rybarikova squared the tie at one match apiece on Saturday, Jana Cepelova put the Slovaks up 2-1 with a quick 6-4, 6-4 defeat of Natalia Vikhlyantseva, who had won the opening match for Russia.
Viktoria Kuzmova clinched the tie for Slovakia in the fourth rubber, outlasting up-and-coming 16-year-old Anastasia Potapova, 3-6, 6-3, 6-4, in just over two hours. Both players were mentally tough while facing break points, with Kuzmova saving 10 of 11 and Potapova saving 10 of 12. It was the one additional break by Kuzmova that made the difference in the match, and the tie.
"It wasn't an easy situation for me, but I knew I had to stay focused and positive," Kuzmova said to FedCup.com. "The situation was made easier by the fact that Cepelova won and we were 2-1 up, so I am really delighted to have clinched the decisive rubber and put us through to the next round."

Finally, Romania had no problem advancing to the World Group Play-offs. After Sorana Cirstea and Irina-Camelia Begu gave the hosts a 2-0 lead over Canada on Saturday, the Romanians swept to an insurmountable 3-0 lead with a routine 6-2, 6-4 win by Begu over Katherine Sebov.
Begu eased to victory in 85 minutes, breaking Sebov four times and holding all but once, by winning a decisive 76 percent of points on her second serve.
"The tactics were just to play my game, and I did that much better than on Saturday," Begu told FedCup.com after her match. "The team is feeling great, so happy and proud – it was our goal to win after three matches, but really it's never easy."
The Canadian doubles team did put one point on the board before the end of the tie, with Gabriela Dabrowski and Carol Zhao knocking off Ana Bogdan and Raluca Olaru in a match tiebreak.

I'm in this class, Officer Involved Shooting Investigations. This is a subject near and dear to my heart. I like these. I like to do them, I like to be involved in them. I was sitting in class today thinking about what I like on the job and here is my list:
homicide investigation
officer involved shooting investigation
one of my very favorite things that involves all of the above is trying to figure out the mechanism of wounding, the sequence of shots, the body positions, etc.
this is very, very, very complex a lot of times.
It is a kind of mathematics, and physics, and biomechanics, etc.
A puzzle, if you will.
In the midst of human catastrophe.
So. I am some kind of voyeur.
Peeping dishwasher.
In this job, there are a million things I can't get it up for. Property crimes. Financial crimes. Fucking embezzlements, insurance fraud, forgery, whatever.
Also, labor relations.
I like it if there is somebody dead and someone who did that do them. I like it if someone has to do something heroic to survive. I like it when the good people win and the bad people don't.
I like when the weak are protected from the predatory.
I would like to kick the predatory in the teeth, and then make fun of them while they are trying to pick up their teeth with their broken fingers.
I am a deeply flawed human being.
I have all of these luxuries. I have all of these deep, disfunctional feelings and beliefs.
I don't know if you should fear me or be glad I am out there.

Step 1 - Mindset and Commitment
You must be mentally ready to make changes in how you spend, how you save, and how you pay your bills.
If you are not totally committed to getting out of debt – and staying out of debt, chances are likely that you will not succeed. The right mindset is critical to your success.
Step 2 – Cut the Cards
Stop using your credit cards. Cut them up and throw them away. Though, you need to still be able to access your credit card company information and statements.
Without credit cards, you will not be able to accumulate additional debt and must live on the money you earn each month.
This means you need to pay in cash, check or debit card for everything you need (not want). This includes paying your bills, putting food on the table and, yes, paying off your credit card debt. More on that in just a moment.
Step 3 – Detail Income, Expenses and Credit Card Debt
Create three lists by using a spreadsheet software program or pen and paper.
List 1 - Include all your income sources, including pay checks, alimony, pensions, unemployment, Social Security, and other funds. Total these numbers.
List 2 - Detail all your fixed monthly expenses, including your rent or mortgage payment, food, telephone, utilities, car expenses/gasoline, loan payments, childcare and healthcare. Then list variable expenses, such as dining out, small purchases, entertainment, clothing, gifts, etc. Total your fixed and variable expenses.
List 3 - Write down all your credit cards and the name of the issuing bank. For each card, list the amount you owe, interest rate, your credit limit, outstanding balance, and how much you pay monthly. Then, order them based on interest rate from high to low.
Step 4 – Interpreting the Numbers
Getting out of credit card debt requires a keen understanding of your inflow and outflow of money. In other words, consider the old adage - knowledge is power. It certainly applies to getting out of credit card debt.
So, compare the details of your three lists. First look at your monthly income in List 1 relative to your monthly expenses in List 2. Do you come up short each month?
If so, determine the gap – identify how much you need to bring your spending in line with your income. Look for ways to either reduce your variable spending or increase your income.
Next, review List 3 and add up the amount of debt you owe from all of your credit cards.
Step 5 – Examining Options and Making Contact
Depending on how much you owe in credit card debt, there are three primary options available to make repaying debt more manageable and avoid spiraling into bankruptcy.
Debt Counseling. Credit card debt counseling involves seeking financial assistance from specially trained professionals in the field. Debt counseling includes a variety of services that range from helping you proactively manage loans and payments to effectively managing your finances for the long term.
*Begin by contacting the National Foundation for Credit Card Counseling at www.nfcc.org or 800-388-2227. This nonprofit organization has offered free financial counseling, debt management plans, budgeting advice and financial educational services since 1952.
Services for getting out of credit card debt are provided in person, online and over the phone. They are handled through a network of agency organizations that provide no-charge help to more than three million individuals every year.
Debt Consolidation. Credit card debt consolidation is when you combine all of your credit card balances into one card that has the lowest interest rate. Rather than send different checks at different times of the month to pay multiple credit card bills, you send one check to cover your entire financial obligation.
Consolidation may be done by moving balances over to a single credit card with a lower interest rate or by applying for a debt consolation loan.
You can do this yourself or hire a consolidation company to help manage the process. The key is to ensure the interest you owe on the combined balance is less than the overall interest you are paying. In addition, you need to be able to afford your monthly payments.
Debt Reduction/Settlement. A debt reduction or settlement agreement is a contract you work out with individual credit card companies where the amount you owe is reduced and/or forgiven.
This strategy is typically appropriate when you have or are close to the spending limit on all of your credit cards - and you are behind in payments. As with debt consolidation, you can try this yourself, hire an attorney or seek assistance from a consolidation company to speak on your behalf. Note that there will be costs associated with hiring professionals to negotiate for you.
Step 6 – Monitor Credit Reports and Ratings
Check your credit reports and credit rating. This will enable you to know where you stand financially and the type of information that is tracked about your payment history and loans. Your credit rating can make a difference in employer hiring decisions, your ability to rent an apartment or buy a house, or secure a car loan.
Visit AnnualCreditReport.com to order free reports from the three major credit reporting bureaus – Experian, TransUnion and Equifax. You may also call toll-free 877-322-8228 to get your reports.
Annually these reports are provided at no charge so do not pay a company to issue them for you, unless you want to look at your reports more frequently (which may not be necessary).
It takes time to improve your credit rating and looking at your reports annually is often sufficient. Also, check for any errors you see in the reports and get them corrected. Click here for more information about credit reports and credit scores.
Step 7 – Keep the Focus, Stay the Course
To succeed at getting out of credit card debt, perseverance is the key. Resist the urge to get a new credit card even if you are making progress depleting your debt. Continue to use a debit card, cash and checks to pay for your necessities and avoid the nice-to-haves.
Keep spending in check. Monitor your income, expenses and payments continuously to ensure you remain on track and achieve your goal of getting out of credit card debt.

Penrhos Dry
Our first creation, a true classic. Our own blueberries, cherry blossom and honey combining with subtle flavours of pink pepper, cardamom and rose petals from the garden to create an extremely smooth fresh and pure gin. The initial distinctive fresh summer aroma warms the mouth as the Mediterranean juniper stimulates the senses. Light unassuming floral notes lightly cascade through the flavours as the combination of rose petals and cherry blossom come to the fore. Combined with the Herefordshire blueberries, Penrhos Dry gives an exceedingly smooth and rounded finish.

Introduction & Packaging
Antec produce some of the most popular PSUs on the market, their PGS series has been a popular choice for many years now and their more recent EDGE series are winning people over too. Of course, not everyone has the budget, or the technical need for a high-end gaming PSU and that's where the VPS550 comes in. This is a low to midrange power supply, offering 80 Plus Bronze efficiency, 550W of power, non-modular cables and a very affordable £40 price tag. Sure it's not that exciting, but a budget-friendly gaming system or office computer will no doubt be an ideal target for Antec's latest.
The packaging is nicely designed, showing all the main specifications right on the front, including the support for Haswell, active PFC and continuous power.
The same details are on the back of the box, as well as the multi-language breakdown.
In the box, you'll find some warranty information, four mounting screws and the AC power cable.

This week we welcome Army veteran Renee Floyd, founder and CEO of American Oil Changers, to the Happy Hour. Renee is an award-winning vetrepreneur and author. Her book, "Dog Tags 2 Diamonds," highlights the issues facing female service members. It was published in 2017.
Besides giving us this week's commissary and Tricare news, Amy also tells us about the magic of the internet.
This Week's Guest: Renee Floyd, author of "Dog Tags 2 Diamonds: Uncovering Our Beauty"
Renee Floyd is the founder and CEO of American Oil Changers. American Oil Changers is a mobile oil change service. In 2016 Renee was awarded the D'Aniello Family Award for Best Innovative Venture and finalist for the 2016 Woman Vetrepreneur of the Year.
In 2017, Renee published her book, "Dog Tags 2 Diamonds: Uncovering Our Beauty", along with five other female veterans. "Dog Tags 2 Diamonds" tells the journey of six female veterans as they entered the military and why they choose to or were forced to get out. Spousal abuse, obesity, rejection, death, dysfunctional families and in some cases, humiliation is encountered.
However, the one common string that held them together was their dedication and commitment to serve their country.
Renee is a 2007 Army retired disabled veteran business owner and a combat veteran of Operation Restore Hope, Somalia and Operation Iraqi Freedom, Baghdad. Renee is the recipient of numerous awards for her 21 years of service with the Bronze Star being the most prestigious award received.

NextGen MilSpouse Posts That Have Us Talking
This week's Military Spouse Who Works It is Sherry Kellogg. Sherry is a Global Study Manager who telecommutes from her home office. She calls her job a miracle because in her industry, home-based positions are insanely competitive and even more difficult for military spouses to land.
She was about to give up on her dream of a remote position when her husband vowed to help her land a job. He revamped her resume to make it read more like a service member's eval. Five applications later, Sherry landed this home-based job that perfectly aligns with her education and level of experience.
What's the lesson? Use all of your resources for resume help…even your service member.
Amy Brings Us The News From Military.com
Remember when we told you Military OneSource was going to be available for a full year after transitioning out of the military? Well, that's now a thing.
Back in January, we talked about how the Pentagon was going to do this. Then the measure got added to the National Defense Authorization Act so it could become law. In the meantime, the DoD never got around to getting it started. Now that the NDAA as we call it has become law – dare I say it…thanks Trump?
Most of us aren't retirees and won't be anytime soon, but in case you are – take a second and look into what's going on with the Tricare retiree dental plan. As in, they are getting rid of it.
Still want dental? You need to sign up for a program known as FEDVIP.
A group of military families has asked the DoD Inspector General to take a hard look at the Exceptional Family Member Program (EFMP) and whether or not the Defense Department is, ya know, obeying the law and running the program like they're supposed to.
Spoiler alert: the EFMP families say the DoD is not doing that.
The robots are taking over. Exchange officials told Stars and Stripes that they're looking at adding the technology used at Amazon Go stores to their facilities. Commissary officials told Stars and Stripes they are also looking to add a technology that would allow you to scan your groceries as you shop and then pay with a smartphone app rather than rescan everything with a cashier.
To that news Amy says
"Call me when you have chicken in stock consistently and then we'll talk."
What's Trending On Social Media
Alicia in the Happy Hour Facebook group told us that she picked up September's Reader's Digest in her BX in England and what did she read…oh it was Jessica's post about the "real reasons we married our service members." You know the one about doing math to figure out when 1800 is and love much we LOVE green socks. Missed that hilarious post? Here it is.
Thanks Alicia for the Reader's Digest alert. Both Michelle and Jessica are now proud owners of September's issue.

Justin Azevedo of Ak Bars leads the playoff scoring charts with 21 points; Mikhail Grigorenko is CSKA's top scorer with 12. The outcome of their personal scoring race could go a long way towards shaping the destination of this year's Gagarin Cup. Here's a bit more about the men powering the two offenses.
CSKA's leading scorer in this playoff campaign, Mikhail Grigorenko, is one of the Army club's returning stars. After making his name with Krasnaya Armiya in the MHL, Grigorenko was a hot pick in the CHL Import Draft of 2011. Chosen second by the Quebec Remparts, he impressed with 85 points in 49 games in his rookie season and was the 12th pick in the 2012 NHL draft. That took him to Buffalo Sabres. Two seasons dividing his time between the NHL, the Remparts and the Sabres' AHL affiliate in Rochester led to a switch to Colorado and a reunion with Patrick Roy, the head coach who brought him to Quebec. Grigorenko had two seasons of solid game time with the Avalanche, but was often deployed in a bottom-six role ill-suited to his physique. Leaving as a UFA at the end of last season, he opted to return to his old club in Moscow rather than take up another NHL offer.
That move paid off: Grigorenko had a solid debut season in the KHL, scoring 23 (10+13) in 45 games as he adapted to European ice. That earned his first call-ups to Russia's senior national team, having previously represented the u18 and u20 rosters. If his decision to leave the NHL was partly motivated by the chance to go to the Olympics, his move paid off richly when he collected a gold medal in PyeongChang in February, having staked his claim impressively in his debut appearance at the Karjala Cup in November. Then came the playoffs and Grigorenko blossomed. A steady increase in production through the post season culminated with two goals in game six of the series against SKA – a late tying goal to force overtime, then a winner midway through the first frame of extras to put CSKA into the grand final. Bang in form after a season of success, the 23-year-old from Khabarovsk is out to back his first club trophy in his rookie Gagarin Cup campaign.
Grigorenko attributes much of his progress this season to CSKA's ability to rotate its players. Head coach Igor Nikitin has sometimes raised eyebrows with his willingness to scratch the likes of Kirill Kaprizov and Grigorenko himself, but the 23-year-old believes that the team spirit among the Army Men this year means rotation helps to raise standards. "We're a really tight-knit team," he said after his game-winning performance against SKA. "If someone is out of the team, then everybody tries to play even better. You could see it today – we wanted to win more, we blocked all those shots. We're doing it for ourselves, and for the team."
For Grigorenko, this season is his first crack at a Gagarin Cup final; for AK Bars' leading scorer Justin Azevedo, it's already his third attempt to get his hands on the big cup.
Like Grigorenko, Azevedo's career began as a stand-out prospect in the CHL. The 2008-09 season saw him scoop the CHL Player of the Year award among a host of individual prizes as he put up an incredible 124 points with the Kitchener Rangers in Ontario. Unlike Grigorenko, though, Azevedo never made it to the NHL. Drafted 153rd overall in the 2008 draft, he was taken by the LA Kings and assigned to the Manchester Monarchs in the AHL. Four seasons there brought him no closer to the show, and in 2012 the forward opted to try his luck in Europe and signed for Lukko in Finland. Then came a season at Lev Prague and a Cinderella run to the final. Lev's collapse saw the Canadian move to Ak Bars in time for the 2015 defeat to SKA. Azevedo remained with the club, and in his fourth season in Kazan he's back in the big game once more – and hoping it might be third time lucky.
Standing 170cm tall, and weighing in at 78kg, Azevedo's relatively small physique may have cost him a shot at the NHL. However, he's proved well suited to hockey in Europe, where the larger ice gives more room for technically gifted skaters to impress. His form in Kazan would probably have earned him a call-up to Willie Desjardins' Olympic roster were it not for injury problems that limited Azevedo to just 31 appearances in the regular season. He still tallied 28 points, though, and playoff hockey is what he does best.
Back in 2014, he made history by scoring a goal in each of the seven games of the Gagarin Cup Final. In doing so, he put another country on the hockey map: Canadian born, Azevedo has Portuguese roots, connecting the land of Cristiano Ronaldo with the icy exploits of the Northern countries. This season, too, Azevedo is on a record trail: after notching at least one point in each of the last 11 games, he's poised to set a new KHL record for a playoff scoring streak. Currently, the record run of 12 is shared by Sergei Mozyakin and the late Pavol Demitra.
It's a run not lost on his team-mates. Fellow forward Anton Lander spoke to journalists at the team's open practice earlier this week, and said: "Justin's playing great, but he's always been a great player. We see that every day. In these playoffs he's taken it to a whole new level and that makes a big difference. We're really glad that he's on our team and we're hoping he can keep up that form in the final."

1938 Chevrolet Master
1938 Chevrolet Master Deluxe
In 1938, The Chevrolet Motor company offered an upscale version of the Master (AKA the HB) and the Master Deluxe (AKA the HA) sedan. This was a popular car selling over 302,000 units, so a lot of examples survive. First popular with Hot Rodders because of the availability of parts, and the ease of replacing the engine, many versions and interpretations survive today.
This example of the 1938 HA sedan has had many modifications from the original to create a unique vehicle, while maintaining the original overall shape, and chassis. An interesting color combo, along with smooth wide fenders, and a new interior I give you the "Heartbeat of America."
A nosed hood covered in deep cyan starts at the re-chromed grille and makes its way back to the dual angled new glass windshield, as well as the upper portion of the car also in deep cyan. The lower portion of the car is drenched in white and shows shaved doors (operated by remote control) and frenched '62 Vette taillights. Engine can still be seen under the hood, due to the absence of side panels on the front end. Consigner states the side panels will come with the car, as well as the original hood. Correct headlights adorn the front fenders, which are attached to the rear fenders via a fabricated running board. A tinted rear window shows some delicate etching with flourish and a Chevy Bow tie. Some rust can be seen on the lower part of the driver's door, as well as minor surface rust underneath.
Seen are the loaning of a 1988 Grand AM interior with two front buckets in cloth checker pattern. A slight tear can be seen on the driver's seat next to the bolster. The rear bench matches the buckets, and seen in between is a console from same said Grand AM. Power windows, Air Conditioning and an AM/FM/Cassette have been added to the dash. Digital dash displays clean up the old gauges and are fronted by an adjustable stock Chevy Steering wheel. A nice headliner presents well and has a modern light and small storage compartment placed in its center.
A new 350ci crate motor has been installed and is fronted by a larger electric fan radiator and backed by a TH350 automatic transmission. A 1966 Mustang rear end, and drum brakes on back, with disc brakes on front are seen. Front steering is standard rack and pinion.
An amalgamation of automotive history has been installed, upgraded, and matched for this "Heartbeat" creation. Exterior retains most of the original look, and interior is from 1988. All presents well with this restoration/creation which consigner states has 34,300 miles since the work was completed.
Classic Auto Mall is a 336,000-square foot classic and special interest automobile showroom, featuring over 450 vehicles for sale with showroom space for up to 1,000 vehicles. Also, a 400 vehicle barn find collection is on display.

It's a cross-cultural number written especially for young and developing choral groups. There are opportunities for soloists on several brief, optional solos. Add percussion to make it even more genuine; percussion parts are included in the publication. Or use the lively SoundTrax CD. P.S.: "Ia Ora" means "hello." Included on Sally's "In the Spotlight!"

Anybody seen those weird shoes with the toes?! On the subway, in the park, shopping in SOHO, in the restaurant, they are everywhere! This new craze in fitness footwear is growing exponentially. The real question is, are they practical, efficient, or just a fashion fad?
Vibram 5 Fingers were created to simulate a barefoot running or fitness experience. These shoes come in a variety of styles, all geared towards a different fitness activity. The Bikila model for instance is specifically for running. They have a built up arch to prevent pronation, strategically places traction for heel and forefoot striking as well as antimicrobial agents in the fabric to prevent odor from all the places you may be running. Research as shown that the act of barefoot physical activity is a natural way of movement and should be embraced.
On the other hand, medical research has found that with the aid of properly fit footwear, such as a stability running shoe, soccer cleats or even pointe shoe, one can enhance the effects of physical activity. Many have suggested that the Vibrams cause the increase of shin splints and back issues due to its inherent lack of support. One could argue that dancers dance barefoot or with a thin slipper and with proper training avoid injury. So it really boils down to your own personal decision. Take the risks, love the look or forgo the funny toes and stick to your trusty joggers. What do you think?

It seems that there is never enough time in the day to do everything I want to do, and I know I am not the first person to make this observation. It just amazes me how true it really is. On top of not having enough time to do everything I want to do, I seem to have A.D.D. lately because I have so many things I want to do.
It's Friday night and I am exhausted. I just shut down the TV after watching an episode of Good Eats on one of my favorite things to eat, the avocado. That Alton Brown is just a fountain of knowledge. I think I've got a bit of a crush on America's favorite kitchen nerd…(I know he's old but whatever).
Tonight, I was treated to a free burger by my friend G, who, upon learning that I never had the burgers at New York Pao De Queijo (and damned if I knew the correct way to pronounce "queijo" — "kway-ho"? "kee-yeh-ee-ho"? — I don't know, you tell me), insisted on buying me one (ok, I didn't really put up any protest) because they were just so good that I had to have one. So I stopped by his apartment this evening to have my burger, which he picked up for me after work since he was picking up a bunch anyway for his friends who were staying over.
Before I unwrapped my burger, G told me that my burger was packed with all kinds of things especially since I requested he have them add onions, cheese and pickles. Now, I did not know that the burger ordered for me (I asked him to surprise me with whatever our other friend J, who moved back to LA a little under a year ago, recommended that I get) would look like, and I quote, "layers of the earth's crust." I was innocently expecting your regular hamburger, made with ground beef and whatnot. I was not expecting a science project model of the earth's crust using food as the medium. But it was soooo good.
The burger pictured above is the "X Brazil" (I don't know why their menu has several burger names prefixed with "X"). It has — bread (obviously), beef (which is what they call thin sliced cuts of beef resembling Steak-Umms — remember those??? — as opposed to ground beef), mozzarella, bacon, egg, Brazilian sausage, corn, potato sticks, lettuce and tomato. I can't think of anything else one could possibly throw onto a burger. Of course, I added on my onions, pickles and cheese (which meant I had 2 kinds of cheese on mine) because I had no idea it would be so loaded already.
I quite enjoyed biting into this gargantuan I'd like to say "mess", but the layers were so neatly differentiated from each other that I can't. Anyway, I enjoyed biting into this hunk of a sandwich because it was so big that as the layers fell apart, every bite brought my mouth a different layer to discover with my taste buds. I especially loved catching bits of the fried egg with the Brazilian sausage — it was like breakfast, lunch and dinner all rolled into one sandwich. Breakfast one bite, dinner the next, and then lunch the next! Though what you eat for lunch/dinner is pretty much interchangeable. But I digress.
As great as this sandwich experience was, it's still no In-N-Out, though it comes very close. I would still choose to eat a soggy, defrosted In-N-Out burger smuggled to the East Coast by any friend returning from the West Coast, but I don't know if I'd eat this sandwich in the same form. But you never know.
The restaurant's name is actually a Brazilian cheese bread that looks like this (picture not my own):
The real pao de queijo. Cute, aren't they? Maybe I'll try to make them myself one of these days. I might even head down to the restaurant myself and pick some up and try one of their smoothies that G said they're known for. Oh and maybe try another of their burgers…
On my way home, I stopped at a pastry shop that I saw on the way to G's apartment. I don't know what it is about black-paned French windows and their ability to draw my attention (it's what made me stop and look at Locale's brunch menu), but when I saw Bakeway's shopfront, I stared from across the street, trying to see inside. Upon further searching on the internet, I see that Bakeway is a chain (at least in Astoria). The branch I went to was the one on 30th Avenue. Anyway, I walked in and looked through the pastry cases, which didn't have that much in the way of variety (perhaps because it was the end of the day), but I went ahead and purchased this —
The girl behind the counter said that it was a soufflé, but I don't think that was entirely accurate. Besides, when I pointed to something else, she just said, "I don't know." So I don't think she really knows her pastries. Anyway it had more of the consistency of a flourless chocolate cake filled in the middle with a chocolate ganache, and it was a little too deflated to be a soufflé…
Technicalities aside, it was pretty good. In fact there's only half in the picture because I dove right into it before I even thought to take a picture. I'm actually thinking of eating the other half now…

I have to say this was one of the most difficult weeks for me to pick a track as there were so many to choose from. I have however gone for this which can only be described as dreamy hip-hop if there is such a genre!
I don't get you, this track has nothing close to hip-hop even "dreamy". May be "Chill-out" or "Lounge music" or "Elevator music" would be more appropriate? Or is it my ears not right ? 🙂
Possibly not one of my best descriptions but the beat running through the track definitely has hip-hop elements to it, with it's classic breakbeat loop. Not all hip-hop tracks have lyrics to them but you can definitely imagine someone rapping over this track a bit like Mello Music Group or Dela, take away the lyrics on these tracks and you've got a similar sound. Anyway how's your DW playlist this week? Has it got any Disclosure on it?
Hopefully no disclosure in mine 😄 But nothing either to jump to the ceiling 🙂
Some good finds this week:
Hibou (for fans of TV Girl)
La Luz (for fans of Wampire)
I was also reminded of this lovely Belle & Sebastian track in this week's DW
Liking the Belle & Sebastian choice @meahtenoha , it just so happens to feature in my Top 100 artist challenge!

Ah nice choice! I went with this one:
Monday means to me folk and acoustic "discover weekly".
I chose this track because in the last weeks I'm finding that some German artists are amazing in the folk genre!
Finally some real bass, so useless suggestions many weeks...

Really great driscovery for me this week, can't get enough of it!

As the Free Beacon reported, American allies are jumping ship now that Obama cut a deal with Iran;
The Russian government has signed major nuclear cooperation agreements with Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Jordan since the start of this year, increasing its influence among traditional U.S. allies in the region.
In June, Russia closed a major deal on nuclear cooperation between Russia and Saudi Arabia. Since the end of the last decade the Saudis have been implementing plans to construct as many as 16 commercial nuclear power plants. The Saudis have signed agreements with other nuclear nations, including the United States, France, China and Argentina, to help construct the reactors.
Russia is now expected to play a sizable role in operating the nuclear plants, which are still to be built.

In the spirit of LeBron James' "Decision," all five underclassmen from the Kentucky Wildcats' championship team moments ago announced on ESPN that they would be heading to the NBA next season.
Or attempting to.
We know that Anthony Davis, Michael Kidd Gilchrist and Terrence Jones are locks, but the other two? Marquis Teague looks to have NBA upside but a deep draft could keep him out of the first round. And while Doron Lamb is a great shooter, he hardly projects as a difference maker at the next level at this point in his career.
But off they go, joined likely by a sixth member of the Wilcats, Senior Darius Miller.
For the Toronto Raptors, it's the top two I'd like to see in Raptors' red next season, something I'm betting Bryan Colangelo would love to see as well. Toronto's recent win streak though may have eliminated them from grabbing either option, and therefore it's not out of the question that the Raps end up moving around in the draft, acquiring an additional pick or two, and therefore making TO a legitimate destinations for a player like Teague (Raps need a future PG) or Lamb (Raps need a shooting guard who can, you know, shoot.)
But to me, it's Davis/MKG or bust. After those two, there are only a handful of players that I think Toronto should consider, so again, let's keep that tank rolling.

This was just a fun book, plain and simple, and a great read. I am a big fan of time-travel stories. Although not quite as much fun as Joe Haldeman's "The Accidental Time Machine", the story itself was enjoyable. The character's romp through time is very much the kind of journey I'd want to take if I had access to a time machine. There were clever uses of time-travel paradoxes throughout the story, and it was fun feeling like I was getting to meet famous people from history. As far as time travel stories go, it was not on par with Robert Silverberg's "Up the Line", but it was a lot of fun (a la Heinlein) and I'd recommend it to fans of time travel science fiction.

Story by Anna Musiyenko, News Editor
Photo Courtesy of ITV.COM
The Islamic State terrorist organization has claimed responsibility for the horrific attacks in Paris that killed at least 127 people on Friday, reports CNN.
The coordinated shooting and suicide bombing attacks started at 10 p.m. Paris time, with one group of jihadists targeting a crowded night-life district and another attacking a stadium where President Francois Hollande, local citizens, and tourists were enjoying a soccer match between France and Germany.
In addition to the number of people killed when bombs went off outside the stadium, at least 11 died in a Paris restaurant and 87 victims died in the theater where the American rock band Eagles of Death Metal was playing.
Some survivors claimed the terrorists were shouting "Allahu Akbar" or "This is for Syria" as they fired.
Agnès Thibault-Lecuivre, Paris Prosecutor spokeswoman, said seven of eight extremists who are dead were killed in suicide bombings.
ISIS has announced responsibility for the deadliest terrorist attack in France since World War II in an online statement that described France as "the carrier of the banner of the Cross in Europe."
American organization that is constantly monitoring extremist websites, said jihadists were celebrating the attacks on social media.
ISIS posted: "Let France and those who walk in its path know that they will remain on the top of the list of targets of the IS," the statement also read, in part, "and that the smell of death will never leave their noses as long as they lead the convoy of the Crusader campaign."
The United States President Obama said: "This is an attack not just on Paris, it's an attack not just on the people of France, but this is an attack on all of humanity and the universal values that we share."
In New York City, the World Trade Center lit up with the colors of the tricolore in solidarity.
Pope Francis also commented the situation and said "there is no religious or human justification for it."
On Saturday morning France officials said Eiffel Tower, Disneyland Paris, schools, the Louvre museum and other cultural treasures are shut down till the situation in France will not be cleared and the safety will be guaranteed.
President Hollande announced three days of state-declared mourning for the victims of the attacks.
It is a very difficult time for all of us. Please keep Paris victims in your prayers.

I may have not mentioned it lately, but my camera is officially dead. In its place, I've been using my son's camera, which is really meant for taking video instead of pictures. My only option is to point, click and hope for the best, as it does not have the best focus or resolution.
Amazingly, I have taken some decent shots lately, but only when the food is the right color, the lighting is perfect, there's no glare, and I'm at the correct distance. Unfortunately, this was not one of those times, as none of these conditions were correct.
This is actually a scrumptious looking raw cupcake in person, but due to it's lack of color separation and some bad lighting (it was stormy that day), it appears not as appetizing (you can barely tell that there is a raspberry, as opposed to a cherry, on top). However, I opted to post about it anyway, so you can try to make one (or more, as this recipe makes 3 to 4 cupcakes, depending on the size) and appreciate it in person.
If you have made my cupcakes before, you'll probably notice that the base is the same as for my Rawtess and rawified Cookies 'N Cream Cupcakes. I just wanted to present them in another way, while keeping the recipe accessible, especially for first time visitors to my blog.
Double Chocolate Cupcakes
- 2 cups nut flour
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1/4-1/2 cup date paste
- 2-4 Tbsp. coconut milk
- generous drizzles of agave nectar, to taste
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla
- dash of sea salt
- a batch of raw whipped icing, combined with as little or as much cocoa powder to suit your tastes
- raw chocolate shavings (I used these chocolate rocks) for garnish
- fresh raspberries to top them all off
Next, add about 1/4 cup of the date paste, 2 Tbsp. of the coconut milk (although any thickened nut milk will do; I bet Brazil nut milk would be lovely in this) and the vanilla. Whisk/mix, paying close attention to the consistency of the batter. Add agave to taste, and more of the date paste and coconut milk as needed. Whisk/mix to combine. The batter should be moist, but not so damp that it requires "baking" in a dehydrator (although you could if you desire).
Divide the batter into sections and form them into cupcake shapes. Decorate each cupcake with a generous piping of raw icing mixed with cocoa powder, and top with raw chocolate shavings and a fresh raspberry. Delish!

On another note, Hayden and I went to my friend Becky's baby shower this weekend, and since she loves chocolate (I think this cupcake caught her eye out of the photo preview), Jacob and I made sure to decorate some onesies for her with the decadent stuff as the theme. Check them out:
This one was inspired by the raw cupcake one I made for Hayden. As you know, I craved cupcakes with her. Becky, on the other hand, has been making her own ice cream, so this one says, "Dreaming of ice cream with sprinkles. Boys can like chocolate, too!"
Jacob wanted to get in on the ice cream and chocolate action, too. He painted an ice cream cone in the center with chocolate ice cream scoops on the sleeves. Then, he asked me to do the writing on it, which says, "I scream for ice cream." Did you notice the baby's arm trying to get a scoop with his spoon on the front?
Last, but not least, is this little number that's a play on the Godiva name (I know it's not vegan, but I liked the idea). It says, "A gift from GODIVA." Get it?
