The distending force of the 3-piece IOL haptics will ovalize a round capsulorhexis if the zonules 90 degrees away from the axis of the haptics do not provide sufficient centrifugal tension. In this case, a CTR is implanted after the IOL, nicely demonstrating the mechanism of action. As the CTR redistributes the forces more evenly to the entire zonular circumference, the oval capsulorhexis becomes round once more.

Exclusive negotiations to acquire Billetreduc.com

With 2 million customers and nearly €8 million in revenues, its online platform is a benchmark for the theater sector and integrates more than 140,000 reviews per year.
Enrique Martinez, Chief Executive Officer of Fnac Darty, said: "Thanks to this acquisition, Fnac Darty is enabling France Billet to diversify and boost its ticketing offering in France, in a rapidly-evolving market. Ticketing is at the heart of our business and we wish to reinforce our cultural role as a key territorial player."

During a debate in the European Parliament on the recent scandal that Cambridge Analytica misused over 87 million Facebook users' data, S&D Group MEPs called on national governments to unblock legislation to protect citizens privacy online.
S&D Group vice-president responsible for digital affairs, Josef Weidenholzer, said:
"Every day we are learning more about the extent of this scandal. Following a hearing in the UK Parliament, it now seems likely that far more than 87 million Facebook users have had their data compromised by Cambridge Analytica. It is essential that Mark Zuckerberg come to the European Parliament's responsible committee on civil liberties, justice and home affairs and explain exactly what has taken place, what Facebook knew, and how many EU citizens have been affected. We then need to ensure that laws are in place to prevent this from ever happening again. We are calling for a detailed hearing in the Parliament's civil liberties, justice and home affairs committee, so that we can understand the full effects of this scandal. This is much more than a case of a company misusing peoples' data for commercial gain - it raises profound questions about how our democracies can be manipulated in the age of social media. We need a full investigation on how these types of practices have been used in recent election campaigns, both in Europe and the US."
S&D Group spokesperson for civil liberties, justice and home affairs, Birgit Sippel, said:
"We have been fighting for years to ensure that citizens' personal data and privacy is protected online. For too long, the attitude in most governments was that this was a secondary issue. However, this scandal finally seems to have woken everyone up to how important protecting citizens online is. Being outraged by this scandal is not enough; we need action from member states to ensure it cannot happen again. Firstly, we need proper implementation of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) that will apply as of May 26. Our Group fought hard against the EPP Group and other conservative forces in the Parliament to ensure that we had strong new laws to protect citizens' personal data. However, strong laws only mean something if they are properly implemented - member states must give their data protection authorities the resources necessary to actually enforce these new rules effectively.
"But this is not enough: National governments also need to agree their position on the e-privacy regulation, to ensure that citizens' private conversations online are kept confidential. The current e-privacy rules do not even cover Facebook! The Parliament adopted strong proposals that would guarantee citizens' privacy online. However, the Council continues to drag its feet on the issue. This is not acceptable; by refusing to act, national governments are already preparing the way for the next big scandal."

How to Protect Your Business Financially Through Thick and Thin
Your company is made up of many different operations, departments, and people. It requires all aspects of these departments in order to thrive. You cannot succeed if your marketing department isn't up to scratch, and you will lose customers if your IT department isn't on top of all your digital-related needs.
What all of these departments have in common, however, is that they cost money to operate. Your financials are therefore the most important part of your company, and to continue to operate and grow in the future you must reduce costs, improve documentation, and follow this guide so that you can continue to support your business financially through thick and thin.
Set up the Right Data Management Programs from the Start
The right data management programs can improve your company from the ground up. It will help you keep track of your data, allow you to benefit from automated tasks, improve communication, and even create comprehensive reports that pick out patterns in your data the human brain can simply not pick up from a file sheet.
Bulk up Your Reserves
Every company will experience rough patches. It will also need to be reinvested in often so that you can provide the best services, products, and keep up with technological innovation. The only way to afford both instances is by having large cash reserves. Try to always keep your company as lean as possible, and save it. You can then later offer a bonus to your employees if you have had a good year, but having reserves takes precedence – your employees can't see those bonuses if you go out of business and declare bankruptcy.
Improve Your Company's Efficiency
The best way to boost profit margins without cutting corners is to simply make your company more efficient. Having great data management programs is a good start, but you can do so much more to lower your operating costs. Make better use of waste, see if you can switch to renewable energy, improve your electronics, so they are more energy efficient – and so on. There are many ways to improve your efficiency and reduce costs.
Hire a Specialist to Manage Your Finances
Having an accountant can help you make full use of tax breaks and stay on top of tax law. Taxes change all the time, and frequently, and assuming you can easily file your business' tax is a mistake. An accountant can help you balance the books, save on taxes, and make smart money investments for the future.
Know Where to Turn to When in Trouble
If an employee starts funneling funds, or your company is implicated in any way legally in regards to your finances, don't try to sort it out for yourself. You need to have a professional on hand in order to build your case and even testify on your behalf. This means not only hiring an experienced lawyer in this area of law, but to also hire expert witness services from firms like Thomas Neches, which provides accounting services for legal proceedings.
If your finances are strong, so too is your company. Follow this guide to improve profit margins, keep your company cash-flush, and of course to protect your company from the law.

Papaya (Carica papaya)
A previously rare and exotic fruit that grows in tropical countries is now readily available to fruit enthusiasts at most times of the year. Usually sweet, this vibrant, usually round, yellow or orange-colored fruit, when used topically in its mashed form as a lotion, is said to be beneficial to promoting wound healing, and prevents further infection from burns. Also known to relieve constipation, its high content of digestive enzymes known as papain promotes regular movement and improves digestive health as well. To ward off heart diseases, papaya's high potassium and fiber levels helps to reduce the risks of cardiovascular disease.

One of the downsides of Accutane is your skin texture and type can change a lot throughout the time you are taking it, and even after. I've always had oily skin, but ever since starting Accutane, I've become dry in my T-Zone and on my lips. Because of this, I've been adjusting what I'm using on my skin. I received some product recommendations from my dermatologist, and did a little research on my own. Below I'm going to share what I'm using from moisturizer to beauty products, and everything in between.
Sun Protection
Those are all the products I've personally been using while on Accutane, and I hope this helps anyone with sensitive/dry skin, or someone also on Accutane! Let me know if you have any product recommendations for skincare. I'm always looking for something better when it comes to keeping my skin healthy. Don't forget to like this post, and follow my blog for more insight!

95 – Romans 11:25, 26 (He Will Turn Away Ungodliness from Jacob) – Podcast Audio
Did the church replace Israel? Pshaw, don't be ridiculous. We continue to evaluate these important verses, in proper context, to determine that such is not the case. Study to show yourself not a replacement theologian.

Okay, you have THE date to end all dates on Valentine's Day, your birthday, New Year's Eve or whatever, but you want to know how to make a sexy dress more modest.
You've scheduled your blow out and your mani/pedi.
(Or let's be real you painted your own nails with your daughter's glitter polish and shaved the woolly mammoth living on your legs).
You've called a sitter. Your man has made the reservations. (Well, hopefully.)
You put on your dress and look in the mirror, but you feel that familiar twinge of something telling you to make your sexy dress more modest.
How do you maintain modesty while still rocking your special day?
(Wanna just buy a modest dress…check out MikaRose)
How to Make a Sexy Dress More Modest
Off the Shoulders?
Let's face it: shoulders are sexy. And there is something especially sexy about only one shoulder showing. If you have a off the shoulder dress you are trying to make more modest, perhaps add a wide strapped tank underneath. You'll still get that off the shoulder look without looking like your dress/blouse is about to fall off and bare everything special that is underneath!
Strapless dresses can potentially draw attention away from your beautiful face (and personality) and refocus it on your bust (or lack thereof). If you want to keep your strapless dress more modest add a valero jacket to it!
Too Short?
She's got legs and she knows how to move them. Did I just date myself with my reference to a 1980s commercial? Not only can an outfit that is too short be immodest, but it can also be uncomfortable to do normal things (like bending over to pick up something you dropped). Pair your too short dress with some opaque leggings. You can go bold or simple in the pattern choice.
Too Tight?
Is your Valentine's Day ensemble fit like a glove? You can loosen up your look by adding a sheer duster jacket. Or make a sexy dress more modest with a blousy cardigan.
Low Cut?
Most of us don't have Victoria Secret breasts that are perfectly symetrical. Low cut outfits aren't only immodest but can also show off all our imperfections of our chest. If you find that the dress you have in mind shows off your cleavage, add a tank top underneath to conceal your ladies.
High Leg Slit?
Who doesn't love a peek-a-boo slit? Me! Until the wind blows it all to high heaven and your derrier is peek-a-booing too! Tone down your slit with a few discretly placed safety pins OR make some small stiches down the path of the slit to keep it permanent.
Whether the outfit you are sporting has side, back or chest cutouts, often times these 'holes' can leave us feeling a bit too exposed. If you want to do something permanent, you can sew some fabric underneath. You don't have to play it safe either. Use patterns that are bold and wild in those cutouts. It will keep the integrity of the outfit's personality, while keep you modest. If you aren't willing to make permanent changes where a tank/tube top underneath so that you get the coverage you seek without the fuss.
Backless dresses/shirts are beautiful…but honestly when it comes to bras that work with a backless dress you are not only showing a lot of skin, but you will be fighting the Great Fall of the Undergarments all evening. No fun. That's if you actually decide to attempt wearing undergarments with a backless dress in the first place. And if you don't, I hope it isn't cold out!
You don't have to completely loose the magic of the backless dress, you can add to it by sporting a sequined tube top to cover most of your back (and a normal bra), throw on a fancy jacket or silky shawl.
See Through?
Many dresses attempt at being conservative by adding sheer fabrics in lieu of full coverage fabrics, but oftentimes our chest, back or legs are still exposed. Depending on the elements being exposed, you might try adding a secondary layer underneath. Even if the secondary item is sheer, the double sheer factor can mask those precious areas of our bodies we'd rather not share.
Too 'Look at Me'?
I live loud and dress loud. But some outfits can just scream 'Look at Me!' By opting to dress down an otherwise overzealous pattern or style you can still show your outrageous personality without drawing too much attention. I love to wear something super fancy, like sparkles, with rugged boots or a vintage tee shirt. Even a demin jacket can tone done an otherwise loud dress.
When To Throw in the Towel?
Sometimes a dress you LOVE just isn't working. No matter how much you try to make it modest, you just know that it's not redeemable. It's too tight, too low cut and too short. You could:
a) wear it anyway with guilt sitting in your handbag
b) toss it and start from scratch
If you choose B (ps…that's the right answer) get excited! It's a blessing to make a sexy dress more modest and honor God with your body. I promise He shows up in unbelievable ways if you let yourself dream BIG and open yourself up to new styles.
When you choose to seek God's will for your clothing, he won't force you to become someone you are not. In fact, just the opposite will happen. You'll find that the modest style you choose will actually enhance who you were created to be.
Last Minute Tips to Make a Sexy Dress More Modest:
Don't dress modestly to please others.
Don't dress only to please other people or ward off advances from men either, those two things are added benefits of modest dressing. Dressing modestly is about honoring God and recognizing the value of our bodies.
Find a Style YOU Love
Don't choose to wear a certain style just because it's what you think is appropriate or it's what everyone else is wearing. Find a style that suits YOU. There is nothing worse than feeling like you hate what you are wearing. God made you unique. Dress like it.
Dressing Modestly is a Physical and Emotional Challenge
Sometimes dressing modestly can be stressful, please remember that you are free in Christ. If you make a mistake or 'give in' know that there is always next time.
Modesty is a Lifestyle
The verse I think works well for deciding what is modest and what is not is : "Everything is permissible, but not everything is beneficial." If what you are wearing is permissible, but not beneficial, are you okay with the repercussions of that choice?
Remember that our character is determined not by one choice but an accumulation of choices.
If you choose modesty today, it will create a habit that will develop into a character trait.
Last Minute Confession:
I like what I look like in sexy clothes and sometimes I want to show that off too. It's not an easy choice to be modest, especially in our culture. I'm in this with you.

I returned home very late on Saturday, actually Sunday AM. I really didn't want to go to church in the morning, but I made myself go because there was a guest speaker from the national church's stewardship division who is to help us with a major fund raising effort for improving our building.
Our building needs work since part of it is certainly overdue because of being over-the-hill. But we also want to improve accessibility, including bathrooms and access to all three levels for handicapped people.
So….we can go into this project with optimism, knowing that an improved building will better serve our mission.
It remains to be seen just how much money our people can contribute over and above their usual giving. There are complications. As with most churches, we have many elderly and retired people. Perhaps we have more retired people than some churches, since many people choose to retire in our area.
But just in the last few days, we found out that a manufacturing plant 5 miles away is scheduled to be closed. This has to do with the end of the house building boom of the last few years. It is within the ripple effect of that downturn. The closing of this plant will cause a loss of income to the small businesses who supply it with the raw materials and the machine parts. The downturn in the housing market will also crimp the income of the people in the real-estate business, which has been healthy in our area until lately.
The local hospital has had to cut hours of office employees due to economic problems.
And, last but not least, the local schools are on the verge of having a referendum to raise school (property) taxes due to needing funds to make up for declining enrollment and a downturn in the funds supplied by the state.
I'm sure that our church members will throw all these things into their equations when they decide on what they can pledge toward our church's building project. I would guess that many will be forced to pledge on the low side of what they might have forecast just a few months ago.
My prayer is that our members will pray about their own decisions for giving and give, in whatever amount they decide, with a cheerful heart, knowing that God will bless their efforts.
I also pray that there will not be a spirit of dissention while this takes place.

This will be found through an unbiased standard, or even if a practical individual would certainly have the ability to understand that the oversight would certainly not make good sense to one of the gatherings.Some of the absolute most usual credit rating oversight is co-signing on a car loan for family and friends participants that do not spend there expenses. They said to the headlines site that the particular procedure for dealing with such an oversight was actually unfamiliar considering that such mistakes had actually never been made in the Oscars' 88-year record. Do not trump yourself up. Return to the 1st step where you determine the blunder.Okay, all right, that was uncalled for, yet seriously, the more blunders you create, the more you discover. The greatest forerunners out there are actually the ones which produced the best blunders yet gained from them.

That additionally implies, where suitable, possessing the oversight openly as well. Due to the legislation from tourist attraction, our experts will certainly create the exact same error again and again once again, till the consequences hurt a great deal that our experts perform pick up from that!

Make a listing from the occasions coming from your lifestyle that you continue to emphasize and also can't seem to be to permit go of. For each event, make a note of just what your error was, what you learned from this oversight, and one thing positive you possess today due to the condition.Labeling on your own as a person that's constantly making blunders wreckages chaos on an individual's self-esteem. By knowing exactly what these errors are actually, you could rapidly place them responsible for you and also get on monitor to seeing far better end results. Kids that are truthful and also experience all right regarding fixing a blunder rarely criticize others.These youngsters reside in 2 various places-one spot where they possess the affection and also assistance of their papa (parents), and also one more where they feel that if their blunders were actually found, they would certainly be actually unworthy of that affection. When I view one, I'm simply a very old businessman and an incredibly skilled entrepreneur which made every mistake in the book as well as could acknowledge one.. Then there are the private errors that some individuals lug around for a life-time; their filthy little bit of tricks. Yet our experts carried out certainly not achieve exactly what our team desired, and significant mistakes were actually made in aiming to accomplish this. Our team will obtain to the base from this, and also I will take whatever action is actually asked for A businessmen are going to actually have to work more challenging as a result of the absence of a corporate identity.The list could go on and on. Having said that, my experience as a card-carrying member of the POPULAR CULTURE brings me to the verdict that the perfect error is actually the faux pas. Enable your own self to hope as well as believe big, dare one thing deserving, create bunches of blunders along the road— as well as fill out your knowledge package to the brink! Many folks hesitate to even have a handful of small risks given that they may induce a blunder."

You have the capacity to always keep moving, certainly not enabling the blunders to bind you to your past times, neither enabling concern to keep you coming from making an effort.

During the pilot year of a Los Angeles school system integration program, Armstrong and Charlie learn to cope with everything from first crushes and playground politics to the loss of loved ones and racial prejudice in the 1970s.
During the pilot year of a Los Angeles school system integration program, Armstrong and Charlie learn to cope with everything from first crushes and playground politics to the loss of loved ones and racial prejudice in the 1970s.
Charlie isn't looking forward to sixth grade. If he starts sixth grade, chances are he'll finish it, and he'll be older than his older brother ever was. Armstrong isn't looking forward to sixth grade either. He'll have to wake up at five thirty to ride a bus to an all-white school in the Hollywood Hills. When they are assigned seats next to each other, what starts as a rivalry becomes a close friendship.
Set in Los Angeles in the 1970s, Armstrong and Charlie is the hilarious, heartwarming tale of two boys from opposite worlds. Different, yet the same.
· 1 ·
"Guys, we should go in. It's a school night."
"Shut up, Charlie."
"Why'd you have to mention that?"
"Yeah, Killjoy Charlie. You just ended our summer vacation."
Like it's my fault the earth spins? I brace for a tornado of punches. Instead I hear Keith say, "Charlie Ross is right. It's getting dark."
Capture-the-flag ends in a tie and we all head for home. You can hear air conditioners humming from side yards and crickets chirping from trees. Someone kicks an empty Coke bottle into the street. It sounds like a ringing bell.
You can't hear much talk, though. We're all thinking about you-know-what starting you-know-when. Most summers I look forward to you-know-what. But this year I'm starting sixth grade. If I start sixth grade, chances are I'll finish it. And when I do, I'll get older than my older brother.
"See you guys at the bus stop tomorrow," I say.
"Won't see me," says Bobby Crane.
"Won't see me," says Mike Applebaum.
"Or me," says Brett Deitch.
"Why not?" I ask.
"I'm going to Buckley."
"I'm going to Carpenter."
"I'm going to El Rodeo."
Buckley is a private school in Sherman Oaks. Carpenter's a public one in Studio City. El Rodeo is in Beverly Hills.
That's three out of my four friends in the neighborhood changing schools. I turn to Keith, the one I look up to most.
"I'll see you at the bus stop, won't I, Keith?"
Keith has sandy blond hair, fair skin with freckles, and sea blue eyes. He carries a pocketknife in his jeans, started wearing puka shells way before they were popular, and lives in the pillow thoughts of practically every girl in Laurel Canyon. He calls us by our first and last names, which can make even a short kid like me feel tall.
"'Fraid not, Charlie Ross. I'm going to Carpenter this year. We gave my aunt's address in Studio City so I don't have to go to Wonderland."
"What's wrong with Wonderland?"
"My mom says it's going downhill."
"She say why?"
"Nope. Just that it's a good time to be movin' on. But don't worry, man. I'll still catch you around the neighborhood."
"Cool," I say, as in No big deal. But what I feel is cold. Like they all just ditched me.
The trouble with white people is, they're white. It's what I try to tell Mama when she informs me I'll be attending a new school.
"What's wrong with my old one?"
"It's segregated," Daddy says.
"How so? Black kids sit on one side of the schoolyard. Black kids on the other."
"And where do the white kids sit?"
"Only white kid at Holmes is the one in Miss Silverton's belly," says Charmaine, my big sister third from the top.
"That's segregated. And the Supreme Court has said it's time for black and white to blend."
I don't see why. It's not like we're going to rub off on them.
"Where is this new school?"
"In the Hollywood Hills," Mama says.
Hollywood Hills sounds like I'm going to be a movie star. I check myself in the shine of the toaster. Look like a young Sidney Poitier. Start practicing my autograph on the plate.
"How's he going to get there?" Lenai, the oldest, asks. "We don't have a car." She's the practical one. Parent Number Three, we call her, behind her back.
"He won a spot on the bus."
Two slices of toast pop up like eyebrows. Two eyebrows—?mine—?pop up like the crusts on that toast. How can I win what I didn't even try for? Then Daddy says they tried for me. Signed me up for a new program.
"Opportunity Busing, it's called. You got the last spot."
"I see," I say. "And what time in the morning will my alarm clock have the opportunity to ring?"
"Five thirty. Bus comes at six fifteen."
All five of my big sisters bust up. Lenai, who hardly ever smiles, is laughing. Cecily the Dreamer, always lost in the drawings she does, looks up from her sketchbook, laughing. Charmaine, boy crazy and bull stubborn, is laughing. Nika and Ebony, identical twins born a year before me, who like to fool the world as to who is who, are laughing. All five of them are laughing. Laughing at me.
Last year I got to sleep till seven. They know I need my beauty rest.
"What's the name of this school?" I ask.
"Wonderland? You're sending me to a school called Wonderland?"
"What difference does it make what it's called?" Daddy says in a tone like a loaded gun.
"It's the difference," I say, "between a boy who gets jumped and one who gets left alone. Can you see me stepping off that bus at the end of the day? Kids around here be all, Yo, Armstrong, we hear you're going to a new school. That's right. What's it called? Wonderland. Wonderland? Say, Alice, what's it like down that hole?"
"That's exactly why we're sending you. To get away from ignorance like that."
"Well, I'm not going," I say, arms locked across my chest. You got to be firm with people. Especially parents.
Blam! Daddy's fist comes down hard on the table. That's my cue to jump up and run. I've got the advantage when I'm on my feet 'cause he left the one leg
"...will have readers cheering."
* " Unforgettable, well-drawn titular characters are the heart of this deeply moving and laugh-out-loud funny story about family, friendship, integrity, and navigating differences."
– Kirkus, STARRED review
"This uplifting and touching exploration of friendship, with a vivid setting, is a solid addition to most middle school libraries."
–School Library Journal
Armstrong and Charlie is one of those distinctly American books that speaks to us of who we are. It warns us of those forces that divide us, and celebrates the strength of those who can overcome them. Armstrong and Charlie are real kids, and their friendship is a real friendship, and their conflicts are real, and their courageous solutions are real as well. This novel is an exultation of hope--and a dang good story to boot. – Gary Schmidt, Newbery Honor-winning author of The Wednesday Wars and Okay for Now

text: イナルナ 0 Posted August 10, 2012 So yeah, I've seen people with 500 stats seem to be having issues with HARD let alone insane. People with over 1k stats are having issues with Insane. I wouldn't be surprised if people with 2k stats couldn't even handle Nightmare. This buff is ridiculous, you just created once again another wall for people to climb over. It was fine the way it was before, but no that wasn't good enough because people enjoying their time in the game would be awful for the high end players who've spent hundreds (or thousands) of hours grinding for gear. Personally this doesn't effect me as I can still do NMHCMM with ease but that's because I have the stats for it. Also items will still fall off of the level when dropped from the Forge. Does difficulty change what the tile effects will be? I.E. Lack of extra DU on lower difficulties? I didn't seem to get it at all after stepping on the tiles tons of times in an Insane and Hard game while seeing people who could do it before strugle. People who could easily do Insane before now struggle just doing Hard. Same applies to people doing Nightmare now have trouble doing it on Insane. The gap between how they can barely even manage to do it on a lower difficulty is just awful. Honestly they might of even failed. Granted some of the builds I have seen aren't exactly the best, they should be able to manage. Yes maybe there needed to be a slight buff, though I think it was honestly fine for some reasons I've already mentioned but this is just ridiculous. I know it's going to get nerfed slightly (I already mentioned this would happen, big surprise) but I still doubt it'll be enough. I can see it getting nerfed again, if not for a third time depending on how things go. Whatever, I guess I'll go AFK farm NMHCMM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This Salted Caramel Popcorn Cake is a delicious combination of salted caramel, salted caramel frosting, caramel vanilla cake, and salted caramel popcorn. With video!
I know this is maybe not an everyday cake project but definitely a must-have-to-try-cake. If you love salted caramel, popcorn, and cake, then this cake has to be on your baking list.
The idea to this cake was coming into my mind during a weekend night when I was chilling on the couch, watching Silicon Valley, and eating these Salted Caramel Cupcakes and lots of other stuff like popcorn.
I had salted caramel leftover from the cupcakes and drizzled it over the popcorn. Salted caramel popcorn is something I'm totally stupid about.
Do you prefer sweet or salted popcorn?
It depends on my cravings, but I love both sweet and salted popcorn. Have you ever tried salted popcorn with crushed pepper and Tabasco? This is my favorite munchie snack on weekends.
Just for fun, I put a bit of salted caramel popcorn on top of the salted caramel cupcakes. And WOW. It was incredible. The buttery popcorn flavor, the salted caramel, and the cupcakes with the frosting were a combination sent from heaven to my mind.
It literally was like an explosion in my mouth. A delicious one.
So what is this Salted Caramel Popcorn Cake exactly?
- Caramel vanilla cake
- frosted with salted caramel frosting
- drizzled with even more salted caramel
- and topped with salted caramel popcorn.
If this doesn't sound like something sent from heaven, I don't know what does.
The Caramel Vanilla Cake.
The cake is a vanilla cake, but I added only brown sugar instead of white sugar to get a caramel-ish taste.
It is easy to make, and you need just 8 ingredients. Start with combining flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Set aside.
In another bowl, mix butter and brown sugar until creamy. Then add eggs and vanilla. Alternately add dry ingredients and milk. Divide batter into two 9" springform pans equally and bake.
Very easy. Like I said.
The texture is soft and moist.
The Salted Caramel Frosting.
For making the frosting, you need to make salted caramel first. Therefore melt butter over medium heat. Then add brown sugar and heavy cream.
Bring to a boil and cook for about 2 minutes until it is getting thicker. Stir constantly that the caramel doesn't burn. Trust me. This can happen very quickly when you are not constantly stirring.
Remove from heat and stir in vanilla and salt.
The salted caramel needs to come to room temperature before further proceeding. Once it is cooled, you can go on with the frosting.
Mix the cooled caramel with sifted powdered sugar. Add about 1-1.5 cups at a time and mix until combined. It will look crumbly, but this is ok. It will get creamy when you add the heavy cream.
I recommend starting with 5 cups of sifted powdered sugar and ¼ cup of heavy cream. Add more sugar or heavy cream little by little if the consistency is too liquid or too little creamy.
- Too liquid – more sugar.
- Too little creamy – more heavy cream.
The consistency is right when it is creamy but firm enough that you can spread it easily. You can go up to 6 cups of powdered sugar or ½ cup of heavy cream.
The Topping.
I used the same caramel sauce for the topping like for the frosting. Cook it exactly like for the frosting.
Let it cool a few minutes that it is not hot anymore but still liquid and pour 1 cup caramel sauce over 10 cups of popped corn and stir until evenly moist.
Pour the remaining caramel around the edges of your chilled cake that it drips down the sides.
Place the popcorn on top of the cake. The cake with the popcorn on top will be super high. Just saying.
If you don't use all the caramel popcorn for the cake, then enjoy it later in front of the TV.
This Salted Caramel Popcorn Cake is
- soft and moist
- creamy
- salty and sweet
- fun to make
- a dreamy combo of salted caramel + popcorn + cake

- 3 cups all-purpose flour (360g)
- 2+1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 cup butter, room temperature (226g)
- 1+1/2 cups brown sugar (300g)
- 3 large eggs
- 1 vanilla bean (or 1 tsp vanilla extract)
- 1+1/4 cups milk (300ml)
- 1 cup butter (226g)
- 1+1/2 cups brown sugar (300g)
- 3/4 - 1 cup heavy whipping cream (180-240ml)
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 2 vanilla beans (or 2 tsp vanilla extract)
- 5 - 6 cups powdered sugar (600-720g)
- 1 cup butter (226g)
- 1+1/2 cups brown sugar (300g)
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream (120ml)
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 10 cups popped corn (100g)
Preheat oven to 350°F / 175°C. Line the bottom of two 9" springform pans with parchment paper and lightly grease the sides. Set aside.
Cake: In a large bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt to combine. Set aside. In a large mixing bowl, using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a whisk or paddle attachment beat butter and sugar until creamy for about 2 minutes. Add eggs and vanilla* and mix until combined. Alternately add dry ingredients and milk and mix on low speed just until combined. Begin and end with dry ingredients. Divide batter into the two prepared springform pans equally. Bake for about 23-25 minutes or until a toothpick centered in the middle comes out clean. Let cool to room temperature before frosting.
Frosting: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. When butter is melted, add brown sugar and 1/2 cup of heavy whipping cream and bring to a boil. Cook for about 2 minutes. Whisk continuously. Remove from heat and stir in salt and vanilla* until combined. Transfer to a large heat-proof mixing bowl. Let cool to room temperature.
Add 5 cups of powdered sugar to the cooled caramel little by little and stir on medium-low speed until it's starting to get crumbly. Add ¼ cup heavy cream and mix on medium speed until combined and creamy. Add more sugar or heavy cream little by little if the consistency is too liquid or too little creamy. The consistency should be creamy but firm enough to spread. Add salt and stir to combine. When you add more sugar, you may increase the salt amount to your taste.
Cut cake layers in half horizontally. Spread with ¼ of the frosting. Place a second cake layer on top and frost again. Repeat two more times. Spread remaining frosting on top of the cake and around the sides. Chill in the fridge at least 4 hours.
Topping: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. When butter is melted, add brown sugar and 1/2 cup of heavy whipping cream and bring to a boil. Cook for about 2 minutes. Whisk continuously. Remove from heat and stir in salt and vanilla* until combined.
Transfer popcorn to a large bowl and pour 1 cup of cooked caramel on top. Stir until popcorn is evenly moist.
Pour the remaining caramel around the edges of your chilled cake that it drips down the sides. Place caramel popcorn on top of the cake. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge up to 3 days.

*First, cut off the straight end of the vanilla bean. Then place the tip of your sharp knife below the curled end and cut the vanilla bean through the middle of the bean lengthwise. Although you don't need to cut it all the way through, it's ok when you do so. Then open the vanilla bean and scrape out the flavorful seeds with the back of your knife. Just use the seeds.

*After viewing, share your feedback about the program!
Although estimates vary, research shows that large numbers of youth in justice settings have learning or related disabilities, making them eligible for special education services. Youth with special education needs, when compared with their peers without disabilities, experience educational, social, and behavioral challenges. These challenges can be even more pronounced for youth involved with the justice system. Additionally, justice facilities and their schools often face challenges in fully meeting the academic, behavioral, and related service needs of these young people.
This NDTAC N&D InFocus program explores the unique needs of youth with learning and related disabilities and the ways in which justice facilities and schools support the success of these youth. The program focuses on the academic and instructional approaches that facilities are taking and the behavioral and social-emotional supports that they are using.

As fall approaches, I feel a tugging inside of me for the warm soothing feeling, that nourishing herbal tea brings me. I see the leaves blow across the road and sense the change of the smell in the air. There are so many wonderful herbs that bring happiness to my taste buds, sometimes in the form of single herbs and sometimes in the form of blends. Herbs are blessings that the earth freely gives to us, not only to tickle the taste buds, but to comfort us and support good health. There is no limit to the value that these teas can provide. Peppermint is probably one of the most well known. Most people like the flavor of peppermint. What they may not know is how good for them it is. Peppermint is good for digestion, bad breath, headaches, supports improvement of mental focus and respiratory issues, helps with tight muscles and boost energy. One of my favorites is chicory root, it has a full bodied, almost coffee-like experience. I use this as the base to my own favorite blend. I add chicory, rooibos, tulsi and burdock. Not only do my taste buds enjoy this blend, my whole body thanks me while absorbing the life healing nutrients that these herbs bring.
The chill in the air causes my senses to crave warmth. This month, I have already been enjoying the whistle of the tea kettle alerting me of tea time. Maybe the stores are gearing up for the cooler weather months, I don't know, but I just hit the jackpot at two different stores, in the same day, that had herbal teas on sale. I now have several yummy new flavors squirreled away for the winter. There are several different brands to choose from at your local store. Here is one. Just be sure to read the ingredients. Some of them look very healthful, but may have additives that are not. The good ones will only have herbs, No colors, flavorings, preservatives, or fillers. Tea takes up very little space, needs no refrigeration, and only requires some hot water to prepare. With a little knowledge, herbs can also add to your truck driver/in the truck first aid kit. So whether you are driving down the road or snuggled up with a good book, I encourage you to experiment with the many different flavors tea has to offer. What a wonderful little gem to have handy on the road not only for comfort, but healing.
Coach Carolyn

Like most of you here, I'm a fan of a great remix, particularly when it extends an already great song a few extra minutes. Yet, sometimes, the mixes have NOTHING to do with the original song and sound like a new track all together.
How many of you prefer the "old school" extended mixes by the likes of Francois Kevorkian, Arthur Baker, Shep Pettibone, Marc Saunders, Peter Lorimer, Bob Sinclair, Razormaid, etc...?
How many prefer complete makeovers by the likes of The Underworld, Tin Tin Out, Dirty Vegas, Coldcut, Deep Dish, TP2K, etc..?
One thing I have noticed, is a slight return to the classic extended mix with a new kick. These mixes are done by the likes of Felix Da Housecat, Royskopp, etc... They extend the songs, and add just the right amount of new material to spice it up.
Anyway, just curious what most of you think. I guess I like both, with a lean towards the old school extended mixes.

Comma.ai releases hacker tools for DIY self-driving features
At age 17, George Hotz achieved worldwide fame as the first person to jailbreak the original iPhone, allowing it to be used with any wireless carrier.
Now, a decade later, he's doing something similar with vehicles, releasing hardware and software to enable tech-savvy people to hack into cars and give them self-driving features.
"Let's take something historically siloed and locked down by manufacturers and let's unlock it," Hotz said in the five-bedroom rented mansion in San Francisco's tony St. Francis Wood where his company, Comma.ai, is based. He lives there with three of the 10 employees. "We want to build core back end technology to enable self-driving cars to exist."
Comma.ai originally planned a $1,000 kit to allow people to retrofit their cars to be self-driving. But it backed away in October after stern warnings from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, which questioned its safety. Hotz said he's happy to avoid regulatory battles and direct dealings with consumers. Instead, Comma.ai is releasing various components that developers and tinkerers can use to create their own kits to add features like lane-keeping assistance and adaptive cruise control to existing cars.
"There's a whole world of people who used to mess with their cars," Hotz said. "But that's gone because you can't modify cars with torque wrenches; they are computers now. We want to provide that same level of access to people interested in modifying their cars."
Hotz, whom the New Yorker called "the most famous hacker in the world," sees his technology as equivalent to the Android phone, providing a platform for developers to create their own products. Comma has several offerings:
•Panda, a hardware device that plugs into a car's OBD-II port, the connector that allows mechanics and others to check the status of systems such as emissions controls. Available now for $88, Panda is "the best universal car interface ever," according to Hotz, who is fond of superlatives. Its USB and wireless connectivity allow a computer or phone to "talk" to the car's subsystems "as a first step to make cars self-driving," he said.
•Openpilot, open-source self-driving software, available since late November. Hotz said 73 people are using it, including "high-level tinkerers and a few companies," some of which are building commercial products based on it.
•Chffr, a dashcam app that lets users record and review their rides, and trains cars to be self-driving by harvesting information that Comma uses to improve Openpilot.
•Cabana, a website that analyzes data retrieved from the car via Panda and Chffr. Car manufacturers heavily guard such data, allowing only limited access for mechanics, according to Hotz. Cabana and Panda go deeper, he said, "democratizing access to the decoder ring for your car." The pair would allow someone to built apps that are like Fitbits for a car, tracking things like gear performance, tips for smoother driving and how to save gas on the driver's commute.
Andrew Barnett, a business analyst for a software company, uses Comma's technology for semiautonomy on his daily highway commute in Dallas and said it's been an "amazing" experience.
Barnett bought a $1,000 product from a company called Neodriven that packaged Comma's components into a plug-and-play kit. After a couple of hours of installation, the kit controlled the car's adaptive cruise control and lane keeping. His 2016 Honda Civic already had those features, but he said the Comma ones are much better.
"The adaptive cruise control from Honda Sensing is almost embarrassing in bumper-to-bumper traffic; it drives like a 16-year-old just learning," he said. The Comma/Neodriven technology "is far more smooth; there's not as many gaps, and you don't constantly have cars weaving in and out.
Elliot Katz, an attorney who leads DLA Piper's connected and autonomous vehicle group, said he thinks letting innovators like Comma compete in the marketplace will ultimately result in safer cars.
"Just as everyone has a choice about what car they buy, we should also have a choice in what automated technology we decide to use," he said. "If a startup offers a product that can save lives and make safer cars, everyone should be in favor of that."
Comma has $3.1 million in seed funding raised a year ago from VC firm Andreessen Horowitz. Hotz said he has half the money left, thanks to running a lean operation, spending less than $10,000 a month to rent the three-story St. Francis Wood house, for instance.
The basement and garage are stocked with tools such as a circuit board maker, laser cutter and four 3-D printers. In the driveway, an engineer peered under the hood of a white Acura that's rigged with Comma's technology.
Long-term, the company's business model is to work with insurance companies, all of which would appreciate technology to reduce accidents, Hotz said, without giving specifics.
For Panda, his target is modest: selling a thousand or so units over the next couple of months.
"This is less about giving you a spoon-fed experience, and more about you getting this to explore your car and see what's possible," Hotz said.
Then he waxed more hyperbolic. "Our company mission is to build and ship the world's first superhuman driving agent, software that drives your car," he said.
