Every day I receive countless questions about shipping and customs, and I've noticed a lot of these questions refer specifically to the EORI scheme… so I've decided to create an article on that specifically – to clarify all the confusion once and for all.
Let's get to it!
The Economic Operator Registration and Identification (EORI) scheme was introduced on 1st July 2009 (replacing the Trader Unique Reference Number system previously used in the UK) and it's basically a method for tracking imports and exports within the EU.
An EORI number is assigned to an individual legal identity (i.e. sole trader, partnership, company or individual) by your local member state (so if you're in the UK – by HMRC) and that EORI number is then used to identify you and your shipments across all EU countries.
And really it's as simple as that – it is just a number given to importers and exporters throughout Europe that can be easily and consistently identified by customs.
Another top tip to helping keep the costs of your imports down is to research alternative money transfer providers that provide better exchange rates.
Companies that specialise in international money transfers could save you a substantial amount of money if you're looking to make frequent transfers to your Chinese suppliers.
FCA and FinCEN regulated, TransferWise are up to eight times cheaper than banks when it comes to making international payments. They always convert money at the mid-market exchange rate – ie. the rate you see on Google is the rate you'll receive. The only fee you'll pay is a small, upfront fee on the value of the transfer. You can also make global USD payments to your Chinese supplier and with their fixed fee of $2 + small % cost of currency conversion, their rates are very competitive.
Setting up the payment is simple as well. You sign up for a free account, set up your transfer by entering your supplier's bank account information and state what currency you'd like to pay them in and then fund your transfer. Options include bank transfer and debit/ credit card. Your supplier won't need to do anything. For them, it's just like receiving cash into their bank account.
With over 3 million customers and co-founded by the first employee of Skype, you can be assured that your money is sent securely. However, just like with a normal wire transfer, your money is not protected if your supplier turns out to be fraudulent so it's best used when you're paying a supplier you trust.
You can find out more about TransferWise in my post here.
Do I Need An EORI Number?
Although the official explanations are slightly more complicated, to keep things simple and easy to understand – if you are involved with imports OR exports to or from the EU, then you do need an EORI number, as without it you won't be able to complete the Entry Summary Declaration or Exit Summary Declaration.
How Do I Get An EORI Number?
To get an EORI number, you simply fill in the application form and send it to HMRC.
Which form you need to complete depends on whether or not you're VAT registered –
- Form C220 is for VAT registered applicants and can be downloaded here.
- And if you are not VAT registered, then you need form C220A, which can be downloaded here.
And just to make it clear as there seems to be a lot of confusion about this – you don't have to be a company to get an EORI number and can get one in the exact same way as an individual or sole trader.
You can either print and complete the application form or fill it in online, via Word.
If you do it electronically, you then need to email the form to: email@example.com
If you do it as a hard copy, you'll need to post it to the HMRC EORI Team:
HM Revenue and Customs
EORI Team
13th Floor South
Government Buildings
Ty Glas
One useful tip to remember is that if you are not VAT registered; you should apply for your EORI number after your first shipment has been dispatched, as that way you'll already have carrier and tracking information to hand – both of which are needed for the application.
When Do I Need To Use My EORI Number?
You'll need your EORI number pretty much every time you deal with customs as it must be included on all pre-arrival and pre-departure information on goods entering or leaving a customs territory of the European Community.
If it's a business shipment, then your EORI number will be needed, regardless of the value of the order.
So that's it really! There is nothing complicated about this at all… all you have to do is apply and get your unique number and that's it!
And also, please note that you only need to apply ONCE and can then use your EORI number on all future imports and exports – it isn't only valid for one shipment as some people think.
Actually, there is one last thing that I want to point out:
There's a site run by the European Commission that can be used by the general public to check the validity of an EORI number. This site will also contain some basic information about the holder of the number such as your name and address but this information is only shown if you previously agreed to that.
So it works something like this:
- You enter an EORI number and click validate.
- If the number is not valid, the answer is 'No' and no further information is shown.
- If the number is valid and the answer is 'Yes', your name and address will be given, ONLY IF you have previously agreed to this information being shown.
- If the number is valid but you have not consented to your information being disclosed, then it will still show as 'Yes' (so no need to worry about that).
Here is the site if you'd like to have a look for yourself:
Obviously it's not hugely important either way, and it's completely up to you whether you want your information to be shown on searches (it doesn't make any practical difference) but I thought I'd mention it so you know to keep an eye out on the form for any boxes regarding disclosing your data.
I hope you have found this guide useful and it answers any questions you had about EORI numbers and whether you need one, but if anything is unclear or you want to clarify something, post below and I'll do my best to help.
Otherwise, until next time!
All the best,

Rumors of larger iPhones that take a page from the Android phablet handbook have been swirling around for a while now, and the WSJ is now chiming in with reports that two are coming this year. One with a screen bigger than 4.5 inches, the other with a screen bigger than 5 inches.
According to the WSJ's sources, both bigger iPhones will be clad in metal, much like the iPhone 5S, while the unapologetically plastic polycarbonate casings one the 5C fall by the wayside.
Apparently the smaller of the two blown-up iPhones is further along in development, and is currently being prepped for mass production, whereas the large large one is still in earlier development, though still on track for release this year. Neither involves any fancy curved glass or anything.
Part of Apple's push to finally get to a bigger-screened model isn't necessarily to compete with gigantic Android handsets here at home, but rather because big screens are popular in China, a market that's been the apple of Apple's eye for a while now. Going goldpagne was apparently just one step of the process, and bigger screens look like the next.
Granted these are rumors, and if the largest-screen iPhone is still in early development stages, things could change, but it's worth nothing that the WSJ's info lines up preeetty well with a similar report from Bloomberg that hit late last year. The main discrepancy there seems to be a disagreement about whether or not these new iPhones will sport any curved glass, but the information about the sizes doesn't conflict.
How large that "larger than 5 inches" model will get before its design is finalized, and whether or not it will actually come out remains to be seen, but it looks more certain that ever that we might be in for something big. [WSJ]

When I was a kid there was only a choice of two — Red Delicious or Granny Smith. I preferred the tart, green apples but it wasn't anything I especially looked forward to. Today I anxiously wait all summer and once autumn arrives, I check grocery stores shelves daily hoping for Honeycrisp's arrival. There is no better apple. And it's a Minnesota invention too, so that makes me even happier.
Way back in the late 1800s, someone said apples wouldn't grow in Minnesota because our climate was too tough. The University of Minnesota took that challenge and created an apple breeding program. Since then they've introduced more than 27 varieties of cold-climate-hearty apple trees that are grown throughout the world! Minnesota isn't a large apple-producing state, but we're third in the nation for apple research and development.
The university's superstar apple, and Minnesota's official state fruit, is the Honeycrisp apple. You can buy these apples, and more, straight from the source, at the University of Minnesota Landscape Arboretum's charming Apple House, a seasonal steel shed surrounded by fields, just around the bend from the Arboretum. They also sell local produce, lots of gift items, tools, and a few plants and pots from earlier this summer.
The day I was there, in addition to Honeycrisps, they had Red Baron (sweet, firm, best for eating and sauces), Cortland; (good for pies and sauces); Zestar (sprightly sweet and tart); La Crescent (crisp, juicy, sweet with zing); and MN #1850, an apple that's still in research and doesn't have a name yet. Call the hotline to see what's available each day as pickings change throughout the season.
Honeycrisp apples (formerly MN #1711) were bred in 1961 but didn't make it to market for 30 years. What makes them so popular is that their cells are larger than those in regular apples so they shatter rather than cleave when you bite into them. The crisp bite creates a mouth-watering juice that makes biting into a Granny Smith feel like biting into felt. Yuch! Who can go back now?!
The U of M knew the apple was so good they took out a patent on it. They've actually made millions of dollars in royalties off Honeycrisp — in fact, it's the university's third most valuable invention. Those funds have gone back into the program to grow more and better apples like SnowSweet and Frostbite. Unfortunately, the patent expired in 2008. What that means for you and me is that the university no longer oversees how growers raise and care for their apple trees and less desirable apples bearing that name have come on the market. So beware — not all Honeycrisps are alike anymore.
I personally prefer Pepin Heights apples from Lake City and usually make an annual trip for a bushel that comes complete with a beautiful cardboard box with an woodcut illustration of an apple on the side.
At the Apple House I bought several of each variety including rising star, SweeTango whose mother is Honeycrisp, and father is Zestar. Each apple got its own plate and I had an apple tasting party for a group of friends. Honeycrisp won (probably because I was hosting the party) but MN #1850 came in at a close second. Now I can't wait to see if that one gets a name.

RESOURCE: Atlas on Country Resources in Intellectual Disabilities
Posted on 27 December 2007. Filed under: Academic Papers and Research, Cognitive Impairments, Education, Employment, Families, Health, Human Rights, News, Reports, Resources | Tags: Atlas on country resources in intellectual disabilities, Cognitive Impairments, disabilities, disability, disability and development, disability and international development, disabled, disabled people, Education, Employment, global data, global data on intellectual disabilities, Health, intellectual disabilities, international development, Lisette-Dupras, map of services, mental retardation, Montreal PAHO, people with disabilities, Second International Conference on Intellectual Disabil, services, vocational training, West Montreal Readaptation centres, WHO, WHO Collaborating Centre for Research and Training in M, World Health Organization |
The World Health Organization (WHO) and the Montreal PAHO/WHO Collaborating Centre for Research and Training in Mental Health have released an atlas that presents global data on intellectual disabilities. The Atlas: Global Resources for Persons with Intellectual Disabilities: 2007 (PDF format, 5.6 Mb) was launched during the Second International Conference on Intellectual Disabilities held in November 2007 in Bangkok, Thailand.
WHO initiated the Atlas in recognition that "global data collection in the field of intellectual disabilities has long been neglected" (Preface, p. 11). The Atlas gives an overview of the extent to which resources and services for children, adolescents, and adults with intellectual disabilities are available throughout all the member states of WHO. This includes information on health services; education; services specific to intellectual disabilities; work-related services such as sheltered or supported employment and vocational training; services to families; and other types of services such as leisure activities, transportation, assistive technology, rights or advocacy support, or food/meal supplies. Data is also given for how these resources and services are distributed by region and by income level.
This information was gathered in the hope that it can be used to help stimulate advocacy and planning efforts in support of people with intellectual disabilities and their families. Specifically, it helps identify specific gaps and needs in the resources and services available for people with intellectual disabilities and their families throughout the world. This information could be used to advocate with governments or foundations for the resources needed to fill these gaps. The Atlas also has developed two instruments that can be used at the country or the regional level to help map where intellectual disability services are available (in Appendix III and IV of the Atlas). Furthermore, the Atlas has helped produce a network of contacts in the intellectual disability field (in Appendix II of the Atlas).
The Atlas also was developed in acknowledgment that disability is increasingly recognized as a human rights issue. Health and other public services for people with intellectual disabilities are a human right, as recognized by the new international disabilities rights treaty. The Atlas was enabled by a new linkage between WHO and the intellectual disability field, via the Montreal PAHO/WHO Collaborating Centre for Reference and Research in Mental Health and its associated partners, the Lisette-Dupras and the West Montreal Readaptation centres for persons with intellectual disabilities.
This new resource is primarily targeted at individuals and agencies responsible for planning health and social policy and services within countries. However, it also is meant for those who provide services to people with intellectual disabilities; for international and national NGOs active in the intellectual disability field; human rights advocates and activists; public health professionals and students; and for civil society in general.
The entire Atlas is available for free in PDF format (5.6 Mb). You can download it by clicking on the link to:

Children, Spirituality, Loss and Recovery
Prices & shipping based on shipping country
Book Description
The book demonstrates the hopeful stance the young take in response to ordinary suffering and significant trauma when adults talk with them about their losses. Its underlying themes convey the truth that loss and recovery are normal in the process of growing to maturity. It examines the strength of the child's capacity for resilience through partnerships with adults who allow children to focus on the loss and tell the story of its meaning to someone who really hears it. The authors agree that adults need to perceive their own losses so that their attentiveness to the young is informed by wisdom that comes through self-understanding, but also agree that many adults do not offer that help to children because they believe it will make matters worse.
The book reveals this fear as a false notion by dealing with childhood traumas such as acquired disability, warfare, HIV/AIDS, death of one's parents and cultural dislocation. The authors are experienced practitioners who provide practical and theoretical insight into the dynamics of loss and recovery. The book offers hope for those who live and work with children and youth through its studied approach to addressing loss by describing young people's potential to work towards wholeness even in the face of fundamental losses to their security.
This book was published as a special issue of the International Journal of Children's Spirituality.

America's Orwellian Liberalism
The ink was barely dry on the
asterisk in Jimmy Hoffa, Jr.'s rant about taking out those "son-of-a-b*tches" —
referring to Tea Party members — when the vice president made his own
contribution at a Labor Day rally. "This is a fight for the existence of
organized labor," the veep shouted. "You are the only ones who can stop the
barbarians at the gate!" And the diatribes have continued with the
establishment of a website designed to track unfair comments made by those who,
in President Obama's words, want to "cripple" America. Congresswoman Maxine
Waters' snippet about telling the Tea Party to "Go to H*ll!"(that pesky asterisk
again) added a nice sentimental touch, and some Wall Street protesters are denouncing free enterprise with
words snatched from Robespierre's rich vocabulary.
This is pretty harsh stuff applied to
a menagerie of mostly gentle souls whose views of constitutional government
differ from those of President Obama & Company, but such perfervid comments
take on a clearer meaning when viewed in a more appropriate context: George
Orwell's 1984. That is, somehow the voices of liberalism today sound
less like traditional partisan pep-talks and more like Oceania's "Two-Minute
Hate" sessions, where party members screamed at a giant telescreen filled with
the face of Emmanuel Goldstein, one of Big Brother's objective enemies. The
purpose was to deflect rage against miserable social conditions by directing it
to a foreign source, to siphon off the hatred by venting against Big Brother's
The parallels go beyond hurling
epithets at that massive Leon Trotsky lookalike in one of 1984's most
memorable scenes. Consider the three slogans of the Party applied to today's
Orwellian liberalism: "War is Peace," "Freedom is Slavery," and "Ignorance is
Strength." As explained in The Theory and Practice of Oligarchical
Collectivism, "the book" within the book, the purpose of war was to
preserve the domestic power structure. As applied to today, Orwellian
liberalism's increasingly vicious attacks against the Tea Party and Republicans
perform the same function, which is to preserve the current liberal power
structure by blaming others for its colossal failures. High unemployment,
failed foreign policies, high energy prices, horrible housing markets,
disastrous federal deficits — they're all the fault of liberalism's enemies.
Republicans, Tea Party members — meet Emmanuel Goldstein.
"Freedom is Slavery" offers a host of
villains in civil society to whom the American public is "enslaved" under the
guise of being free, though the slogan offers a variant of what Orwell had in
mind. Thus, freedom to choose one's own health care plan or no health care plan
at all is slavery to the insurance companies; Americans "addicted" to oil
driving gas-guzzlers are slaves to Exxon and its partners; freedom to eat French
fries is slavery to clever McDonald's advertising campaigns; and freedom to make
your own investment decisions is slavery to Wall Street. In fact, Orwellian
liberalism assumes that citizens' own decisions to live their lives pretty much
as they please constitute slavery to someone or another in a so-called "free
country," which is why Big Brother in the form of the nanny state is becoming so
enormous, so oppressive.
This leaves us with what likely is
the most important slogan of Orwellian Liberalism: "Ignorance is Strength,"
which means in this context that ignorant citizens constitute the foundation of
the liberal establishment. Indeed, there is no way America's Oceania Big
Brother equivalent, President Obama, could get away with ludicrous statements
about "millionaires and billionaires not paying their fair share" of the income
tax without the silent collusion of Americans' stupendous ignorance about such
matters. Similarly, the country's energy shortages could not conceivably exist
with an informed citizenry that is aware of how well-connected environmental
activists have prevented production in resources where North America dominates,
such as coal, natural gas, and shale. Further, the massive propaganda campaign
centering on anthropogenic global warming could not possibly succeed with an
attentive public.
In short, "Ignorance is Strength" for
Orwellian liberals; pierce it, and the whole century-old liberal-progressive
project collapses in a heap of prevarications and pretense.
If this happens, liberals'
presumption to govern on the basis of the other two slogans, as well as a thick
vocabulary of Orwellian doublespeak, will collapse as well. The question is
whether this situation can endure indefinitely, as it did in 1984. The
answer depends on Americans' determination to reclaim control of their
government. Absent that, we had all better learn to love Big

Memo to servers: Don't pour my wine!
I spend many meals in fine restaurants these days trying to play defense against every passing server topping off a glass I don't want refilled. Let my guard down for a second -- laugh at a friend's joke -- and suddenly I have a full glass I didn't want.

Wine Lips
I used to avoid drinking red wine in public because it stains my lips and I would look like a vampire. It seems that this fall (2014) it is trendy to apply the lipstick like a stain. Super easy AND you can drink more red wine in public, no one is going to see the difference!
What do you think about this trend? :)

Converse Fall 2014 Preview
Hello my darlings!
The Converse Fall 2014 Press Preview was last week and I received an invitation to attend it. I was thrilled about it! I love to get sneak peaks before everyone. The event gathered the best fashion bloggers from Montreal at the fine Nelligan hotel situated in the Old Port. Tables were placed all around the room with sneakers on them and we were given tours with information about each collection. Before that day I considered the Converse sneakers being the white and black basics that everyone should have in their wardrobe. I wasn't aware that they are available in so many styles and colors! There are unisex sneakers, sport sneakers, for winter, for summer, with sparkles, with prints, made of crafted material, and the list goes on. Even the classical ones that are very popular in Europe can be bought with zippers so it takes less time to put them on.
Some collections represent collaborations with new designers. I am happy to announce that Converse is collaborating with Missoni this fall. Isn't that great?! I will soon let you know about another awesome collaboration within the Converse family, so stay tuned!
I was very pleasantly surprised to receive a pair of classical black and white sneakers. I never had a pair of Converse before. I was the only one coming in high heels at the event because my previous sneakers are out of service now, so it was about time! :)
The leopard 70's inspired.
The grey made of crafted material, my favorite ones! They match with absolutely every attire.

What color suits you the best?
Hello everyone!
As you can see I switched the language. I'm still going to write articles in French. But since I come from Moldova and I have lots of friends internationally who don't speak French, I decided that I want to reach a wider range of people. I didn't apply my English skills since I studied in Health Sciences at an English College in Quebec city, but I'm going to try to make it happen.
I am also determined to start doing videos on Youtube where I will most happily share my knowledge and expertise about natural products, and their affect on physical and mental beauty. After all it is one of my biggest passions. If there is anything in specific that you would like to see me discuss on these videos, please let me know!
Speaking of Youtube, I just found these two very helpful videos by Mimi Ikonn that indicate how to discover what colors suit you best when it comes to your wardrobe. I use these tricks when I style someone, but I never actually categorized them by season. So even I have a long way to go when it comes to fashion knowledge, but after all it is not as strict as it seems and fashion is ultimately about having fun. So what season are you?
Have fun on your next shopping spree & talk to you very soon! ;)

It used to be that having your own quadrotor drone was cutting edge. Now that the average Joe can pick one up at his local mall for a couple hundred bucks, you've got to step up your game if you don't want to be seen as pedestrian. That's why today's aspiring UAV enthusiasts are working with swarms. Not just any swarms either, but swarms of nano-quadrotors. These days, budget conscious drone makers are going small to cut costs and shed ounces.
[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQIMGV5vtd4?rel=0&w=600&h=335]
Check out this mesmerizing display of synchronized aerial acrobatics using miniature quadrotors from the folks at University of Pennsylvania's GRASP Lab. Alex Kushleyev, Daniel Mellinger, and Vijay Kumar put the swarm of self-righting KMel nano-quadrotors through a series of tests to demonstrate software capable of performing intricate 3D formations.

In a life altering moment, young dad with a newborn and 2-year old boy suffered serious injuries because of a road accident, however, the love and support from strangers restored his faith in humanity. It was supposed to be just another regular day on the 27th of May but Travis Hetherington's life was suddenly turned upside down when he was hit in front of his house by a very fast moving car. The accident left him seriously injured, and since then he has been in the hospital in a terrible way. Travis is the dad of a new born, Alexander and a 2-year old boy, Liam. Now to help Travis and his family make it through this time of hardship, his close friends, relatives, and neighbors are coming together and they want the online community to help through monetary donations to a GoFundMe campaign set up for the family.
Right now, despite his serious injuries Travis continues to have a smile on his face, although his lower leg is crushed, he will lose the use of his finger on one hand and has multiple fractured ribs; he maintains an upbeat attitude and remains hopeful, which has been a great source of courage and strength for his wife, Lydia. At their dire time of need, their neighbors and the paramedics who immediately rushed to their aid and if it were not for them, he would not be alive and trying to make his lovely wife and beautiful boy laugh with jokes!
The seriousness of Travis's injury means he will have to go through multiple surgeries, and a long rehabilitation process, it also means that the family will lose it biggest source of income. Since Travis was self-employed as a sole trader, he has lost his means of supporting his family. Until he is able to go back to work, the family will have to rely on a disability allowance and understandably raising two children on a disability allowance is not possible. To help the family with the medical expenses and the day to day expenses of raising a young family, Travis's sister in law, neighbors and friends have set up a crowdfunding campaign on GoFundMe, all funds raised will go towards putting food on the table, keeping a roof over the family's heads and covering the costs of caring for a newborn, first and foremost. Even though Travis Medical bills are high, his family is his top priority. He says that his injuries can wait, but his little kids cannot.
They hope to raise $28,000 so any contribution, big or small will be greatly appreciated, to donate please go to: https://www.gofundme.com/travishetherington
The crowdfunding campaign was set up by Anthony Noble, who is close related to the Hetherington family.

Early Versus Delayed Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) in the Treatment of Cryptococcal Meningitis in Africa

|Cryptococcal Meningitis HIV Infections
|Drug: Fluconazole Drug: Fixed dose - Stavudine, lamivudine and Nevirapine Drug: Fixed dose - Stavudine, Lamivudine, Nevirapine
|Not Applicable
Cryptococcosis is an invasive fungal infection caused by an encapsulated yeast. Cryptococcosis in humans is almost always caused by Cryptococcus neoformans. The advent of the HIV epidemic has lead to a profound increase in the number of reported cases of cryptococcal meningoencephalitis throughout the world, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. In Zimbabwe an analysis of the case reports at one of the major tertiary care hospitals showed an increase in the admission rate from meningitis between 1985-1995 from 78 to 523 cases per 100000 admissions with an increase in the number of those cases due to cryptococcosis from 5% to 46.2%.
Cryptococcosis typically develops at a CD4 count of less than 50 cells/ mm3, and is the initial AIDS defining illness in up to 50-60% of patients.
Prior to the introduction of amphotericin B, flucytosine and azoles, mortality from C neoformans meningoencephalitis was close to 100%. The introduction of amphotericin B led to a significant decrease in mortality with 60-70% of patients being successfully treated. The introduction of fluconazole prophylaxis in the 1990s lead to a significant decrease in the incidence of cryptococcosis. The use of antiretroviral therapy has also caused a significant decrease in the incidence of cryptococcal meningitis.
Due to the prohibitive cost of amphotericin B and flucytosine, in many developing countries such as Zimbabwe, the mainstay of the treatment of CM is fluconazole. The current standard treatment is with fluconazole 400mg/day for 8-10 weeks, may be too low to result in adequate CNS concentration of the drug to achieve adequate killing of C. neoformans. Clinically some physicians in Zimbabwe have noted that patients are not responding adequately to this regimen and have started to treat patients with higher doses of fluconazole. Previous studies have shown that higher doses of fluconazole can be used for the treatment of CM and are well tolerated. In our proposed study, patients will be treated with high dose oral fluconazole at 800mg/day for a total 10 week period.
The advent of the increased access to ART in sub-Saharan Africa provides an additional opportunity to improve morbidity and mortality in all AIDS patients. There are as yet no definitive studies to indicate if there is an advantage to immediate ART therapy in the setting of acute CM compared to deferring therapy after the first 10 weeks of intensive CM therapy. This study is designed to address this question and provide physicians in sub-Saharan Africa with evidence based guidelines for the appropriate management of HIV positive patients with acute presentation of CM.

Some people lose weight for the summer; I stick with brain cells. Like, yesterday I saw The Wackness, and there's this part where the dad is doing a crossword puzzle and asks Shapiro a seven-letter word for "subatomic particle" because he doesn't know and I was like, for the love of a Higher Power don't let me lose so many of my seven-letter words for subatomic particles without the T's I am ever that dumb, but by the end of the movie I was seriously, like, all I want to do for the next six weeks is smoke weed and listen to Wu-Tang — and I don't even like weed! — so um, you can imagine, when I took this Pew News Quiz this morning it was with no small amount of trepidation. Click Josh Peck for the question that tripped me up. [Pew Research]
Hahaha, suck it; I got them all right. What, do you think I'd actually admit it if I didn't? Whatever, so I can name the Senate Majority Leader I still have nothing to say to you today, so you might as well take the quiz yourself.

Hamels upbeat, encouraged by progress
CLEARWATER, Fla. -- Ace left-hander Cole Hamels pronounced himself ready to throw his first bullpen session of the spring after throwing from 60 feet on flat ground Sunday at the Carpenter Complex. That's good news for the Phillies, who hope he'll miss only a couple regular-season starts after an offseason bout with biceps tendinitis.
An upbeat Hamels said he's pleased with not only his throwing progress but the fact that he was cleared to begin lifting weights again about a week ago.
"It feels good. I feel really good. I've made tremendous progress," he said. "I think I've been able to do everything to the best of my ability at the right time, at the right pace. Everything has been that slow progression, and now I feel like my body is capable of making the big jumps.
Hamels said he isn't ready to put a timetable on his return.
"I really don't know. I know right now I'm happy with where I am," he said. "I know I'm going to have the big strides and get used to pitching up and down, mixing in bullpens. That's a different intensity. Different sorenesses come up. But I feel comfortable that nothing is painful. It's just the soreness of throwing a baseball, not in a specific area, so I think that's better."
Said pitching coach Bob McClure: "He was good. Real good. Free and easy."
Hamels said he'd prefer to build up to at least 100 pitches before his first start of the regular season, but that's not a necessity.
"The ultimate goal of every pitcher is to pitch a complete game, so 100 pitches gives you a better opportunity than 90 or 85. That's what I'm working toward," Hamels said. "But if that doesn't happen and I'm at 80 or 85, I feel like I still can give the team a really good chance. I'm also really confident in the bullpen this year … it's been fun to see them."

On fourth-and-seven from the Bears' 47, Chicago went with an all-out blitz, and it cost them the NFC North division title.
Aaron Rodgers hit a wide-open Randall Cobb for a touchdown pass with 38 seconds remaining to hand Green Bay the 33-28 victory Sunday, and it all opened up because the Bears got aggressive, then got burned for it.
"When you have a zero blitz on, things can happen. We just lost coverage with our eyes in the backfield," head coach Marc Trestman explained. "If a quarterback breaks contain in a zero blitz like that, it leaves a lot of field for any defender to have to cover."
Whether it was safety Chris Conte's fault or cornerback Zach Bowman's, somehow Cobb was all alone, floating inside the Bears' 20-yard line. Rodgers floated one in to Cobb, and the Bears did not have enough time to mount a comeback.
So Green Bay takes on San Francisco in the playoffs next week, while the Bears clean out their lockers today.
Forte moves up list
Matt Forte totaled 157 yards from scrimmage with three touchdowns in the loss to Green Bay, rushing for 110 yards and two scores while hauling in four receptions for 47 yards and a TD. Forte, who was named to the Pro Bowl last week, finished with a career-high 1,933 yards from scrimmage, fifth-most in franchise single-season history and more than any other player other than Hall of Famer Walter Payton. Forte also set career highs in rushing yards (1,339) and rushing touchdowns (nine), as well as total TDs (12).
Receivers shine
Wide receiver Brandon Marshall finished the season with 100 receptions for 1,295 yards and a career-high 12 touchdowns, which are tied for the third-most in franchise history. As for second-year wideout Alshon Jeffery: he finished Sunday's game with three catches for 80 yards, moving him into fourth place in the NFL with 1,421 yards receiving this year. Jeffery was passed up on a Pro-Bowl nod this week, and he stepped up his play again, finishing the season with 89 receptions for 1,421 yards and seven touchdowns. His 1,421 yards are second-most in franchise single-season history behind Marshall's 1,508 in 2012.
Le-Win takes field
Several members of the 2013 Class 1A IHSA state football champion Lena-Winslow team were honored at halftime. Some in the stands were coach Kevin Milder, senior TE/LB Matt Greene and senior RB/DB Tyler Oakley.
Bears report card
Passing offense: B
Jay Cutler (15-for-24 for 206 yards with two TDs and one interception) finished strong, gathering a 103.8 passer rating, and throwing the ball away and taking a sack instead of forcing the ball into coverage. He just didn't have enough time to get it done at the end.
Rushing offense: A
Matt Forte (22-110 with two TDs) cut well all day and ran with authority. The Bears had nine rushing first downs to eight through the air.
Passing defense: C-
Aaron Rodgers (25-for-39 for 318 yards with two TDs) threw two early interceptions and looked rusty, but he came through when he had to, by going 5-for-8 for 75 yards with the game-winning touchdown on the last drive.
Rushing defense: F
Again, this is the worst run defense in the league for a reason. It gave up 160 yards on the ground, with James Starks finishing with an 8.0 yard-per-carry average.
Special teams: A-
Devin Hester averaged 29.3 yards on six returns, and he set the Bears up with good field position three times, even darting from the 11 to the 40 to give the home team a chance on the final drive.
Coaching: B
Marc Trestman and his staff didn't finish with a perfect game - he failed on a challenge and punted on an early fourth-and-short in Packers' territory that could have swung momentum with a conversion. But, he had the team in position to win the NFC North as late as the last play of the game.
Overall: C-
The Bears came close, but that will get them nothing in the off-season. They had chances to finish off the Packers but couldn't, and they will think about that for the next eight months until the next training camp opens.

This week over at the Paper Cupcake Challenge Blog Lucy Marino brings us our challenge. She designed a wonderful sketch to use. Of course you can rotate, flip or stretch the sketch as long as you can see the original sketch in the finish card.
This first card is for that challenge. I pretty much left it just as it was. I used a new released image called "Daisy in Pot" from Paper Cupcakes and colored it with my Bic Mark-its. It was a pretty quick and simple card.
The next card I made my mom for Mother's Day. This image is a new release by Paper Cupcakes as well. It is called "Peony and Anenomes" I colored it with my colored pencils. The ticket is from Paper Cupcakes as well and can be found in the Variety Ticket set. I kept this pretty simple as well, but loved how it turned out.
This next card is an easel card. This image is a new release from Paper Cupcakes too called "Pansy Cupcake". Not really sure I like how this card turned out and I would do it in different colors if I were to do it again. I started with the pansy flower and I loved how the flower turned out, but then I had a difficult time deciding what color to do the icing and wrapper (I should have did the bow in yellow or white)and the wrapper in well.... still not sure. To be honest I don't really like the color skeme at all, but oh well I so wanted to color the flower like I did. Then I had a hard time finding paper to match. I also wish I would have done the butterflies in a brighter yellow or different color. hahahaha.. OK, not really loving this one; can you tell? I colored it in my colored pencils.
Well, I hope everyone in the US had a lovely Mother's Day. I had a nice day, but the best part of my day was enjoying my mom and dad's company for dinner and visiting with them and oh doing the Michael Jackson's dance WII with Avery after they left. That little stinker even beats me in that!!
Leave me some lovins if you stop by... (((pretty please)))

Sunday marks "Women's Equality Day" – commemorating the date in 1920 when women in the United States won the right to vote.
In advance of the occasion, state officials released a preliminary report this week detailing some of the significant social and economic advances women in North Carolina have made in recent decades. But the report, The Status of Women in North Carolina, also details the disparities that persist especially in the area of economic security.
Among the key findings:
- Nearly six in ten women are now in the workforce (U.S. Department of Commerce 2012a), compared to 34 percent of women in 1950 and 43 percent of women in 1970(Fullerton 1999). Women's labor force participation in North Carolina reflects this trend; as of 2010, 59 percent of women were active in the workforce.
- In North Carolina, as in the United States as a whole, women have higher levels of education than men. Women in the state are more likely than men to hold an associate's degree or have some college education (33 percent of women compared to 28 percent of men) or to have a bachelor's degree or higher (27 percent of women compared to 26 percent of men). A smaller proportion of women than men have not graduated from high school (13 percent of women compared to 17 percent of men).iii
- Despite women's higher educational attainment, women's wages in North Carolina lag behind men's. In 2010, the median annual earnings for women who work full-time, year-round in North Carolina were $7,000 (or $135 per week) less than the median annual earnings of comparable men; women's earnings were $33,000, compared to $40,000 for men.
- In North Carolina, as in the United States as a whole, the gender wage gap is even larger when only men and women at the same educational level are compared. Women who have at least a college degree and work full-time, year-round earn more than $20,000 less per year than comparable men (a gender wage gap of 29 percent); for women with some college education or an associate's degree, the loss of earnings for women is about $10,000 per year (a gender wage gap of 24 percent).
- In North Carolina, poverty status varies considerably by race and ethnicity. Among women in the state, Hispanic women are the most likely to be poor or near poor (64 percent), followed by American Indian (54 percent) and black (52 percent) women. Asian American and white women are the least likely to be poor or near poor (35 percent and 30 percent, respectively).
The full 2012 Status of Women in North Carolina report is slated to be released in October. To read an advance fact sheet on the findings prepared by the independent Institute for Women's Policy Research on behalf of the N.C. Council for Women , click here.

Hunter S. Thompson's "Fear And Loathing At The Super Bowl" essay ran in the Feb. 15, 1973 edition of Rolling Stone magazine. In it, Thompson chronicles a pair of encounters with the general manager and "de facto owner" of the Raiders.
It's what you'd expect from Thompson. It's what you'd expect of Davis.
[Raiders training camp]
There were two other solitary figures moving around on the field(s) beyond the small enclosure near the locker-room door where LoCasale and several assistants made sure the half-dozen local sportswriters stayed.
One was Ray Guy, the rookie punter and number one draft choice from Mississippi, who spent all afternoon kicking one ball after another in tall spiraling arcs above the offensive unit to a brace of ballboys just in front of the sportswriters' huddle ... and the other was a small wiry man in a tan golf jacket with a greasy duck-tail haircut who paced along the sidelines of both fields with a speedy kind of intensity that I never really noticed until he suddenly appeared very close to me and I heard him ask a sportswriter from the San Francisco Chronicle who I was and I was doing there...
The conversation took place within 10 yards of me, and I heard most of it.
"Who's the big guy over there with the ball in his hand?" asked the man with the DA.
"His name's Thompson," replied Chronicle sportswriter Jack Smith. "He's a writer for Rolling Stone."
"The Rolling Stones? Jesus Christ! What's he doing here? Did you bring him?"
"No, he's writing a big article. Rolling Stone is a magazine, Al. It's different from the Rolling Stones; they're a rock music group... Thompson's a buddy of George Plimpton's, I think... and he's also a friend of Dave Burgin's-you remember Burgin?"
"Holy shit! Burgin! We ran him out of here with a cattle prod!"
I saw Smith laugh at this point, then he was talking again: "Don't worry, Al. Thompson's okay. He wrote a good book about Las Vegas."
Good god! I thought. That's it... If they read that book I'm finished. By this time I'd realized that this strange-looking bugger named "Al," who looked like a pimp or a track-tout, was in fact the infamous Al Davis-general manager and de facto owner (pending settlement of a nasty lawsuit scheduled for court-action early this year) of the whole Oakland Raider operation.
Davis glanced over his shoulder at me, then spoke back to Smith: "Get the bastard out of here. I don't trust him."
[two pages later]
Davis suddenly rushed onto the field and grabbed the quarterback, Ken Stabler, along with a receiver and a defensive back I didn't recognize, and made them run the same pass pattern-a quick shot from about 15 yards out with the receiver getting the ball precisely at the corner of the goal lone and the out-of-bounds line-at least twelve consecutive times until they had it down exactly the way he wanted it.
This is my last real memory of Al Davis: It was getting dark in Oakland, the rest of the team had already gone into the showers, the coach was inside speaking sagely with a gaggle of local sportswriters, somewhere beyond the field-fence a big jet was cranking up its afterburners on the airport runway...and here was the owner of the flakiest team in pro football, running around on a half-dark practice field like a king-hell speed freak with his quarterback and two other key players, insisting that they run the same goddamn play over and over again until they got it right.
That was the only time I ever felt that I really understood Davis... We talked on other days, sort of loosely and usually about football, whenever I would show up at the practice field and pace around the sidelines with him... and it was somewhere around the third week of my random appearances, as I recall, that he began to act very nervous whenever he saw me. I never asked why, but it was clear that something had changed, if only back to normal...
After one of the mid-week practices I was sitting with one of the Raider players in the tavern down the road from the fieldhouse and he said: "Jesus, you know I was walking back to the huddle and I looked over and, god damn, I almost flipped when I saw you and Davis standing together on the sideline. I thought, man, the world really is changing when you see a thing like that - Hunter Thompson and Al Davis - Christ, you know that's the first time I ever saw anybody with Davis during practice; the bastard's always alone out there, just pacing back and forth like a goddamn beast..."

Lila Downs / Natalia Clavier / Pamela Rodriguez / Raul Campos in association with LATIN Alternative Music Conference
Thursday, July 11, 2013
6:00 p.m.–10:00 p.m.
Please note: This event has already taken place. Please use the Search options on the right to find upcoming events.
Born in Oaxaca, Mexico, Lila Downs embraces and highlights her origins in the U.S. and Mexico. Downs' roots have always been an important aspect of her music, as well as the topics of political and social justice, immigration, and transformation, all embedded in the human condition. For over a decade, Lila Downs has traversed the planet, bringing her dramatic and highly unique reinvention of traditional Mexican music and original compositions fused with Blues, Jazz, Soul, and African roots. Downs has long been recognized by the music industry, receiving a Latin GRAMMY for the 2004 release, Una Sangre and a GRAMMY nomination for 2008's Shake Away, which was also named one of the top ten albums of that year by WOMEX, the leading world music organization. In 2012, Downs released her album, Pecados Y Milagros, which won a Latin GRAMMY for Best Folk Album and a GRAMMY award in 2013 for Best Regional Mexican Album.
Known as the long-time live voice of Thievery Corporation, Natalia Clavier's new solo album, Lumen was produced by GRAMMY-winning producer Adrian Quesada. With a sultry mix of Jazz-inspired vocals, electronic textures and global influences, Lumen further develops the sound Clavier cultivated while recording and touring with both Thievery Corporation and her husband, Argentinean singer-songwriter Federico Aubele.
Born and raised in Lima, Pamela Rodriguez has always been enticed by other paths of life, territories and cities. In her lyrics, Rodriguez intertwines topics of love and indifference with her own experiences to create melodies out of feminine intuition and the instinctive need to interpret reality through a song. In 2006, Rodriguez was nominated for a Latin GRAMMY Award as "Best New Artist" and in 2012 received a second nomination for "Best Contemporary Pop Album". Rodriguez has recorded three albums, with her most recent, Reconocer, being released in 2011. In her latest album, Rodriguez reflects on her recent experiences and tells her audience about exile, freedom, love and maternity, and her constant changes of countries and the sounds between here and there. The album has fresh sounds, Indie Pop and Alternative music influences, as it showcases Rodriguez's ability to incorporate different themes and styles into her lyrics to create a musical masterpiece.
The voice of pirate radio in the mid-90s and a native Angeleno, Raul Campos has come from the underground to represent the eclectic airwaves of KCRW in Los Angeles. Campos brings his audience to a place where funky beats, underground rhythms, heartbroken guitars, Latin-loving and daring melodies live. Campos also continues his work behind the scenes as a remixer, putting his special spin on tracks by famed artists such as Femi Kuti, Jill Scott and many more.

More than 200,000 parents could be missing out on their full entitlement to the state pension by failing to claim child benefit, HMRC has warned in a letter to the Treasury Committee.
Parents of children under 12 who do not pay national insurance can receive national insurance credits to build up their state pension by registering for child benefit.
However, data from HMRC shows that of the 7.9 million households claiming child benefit, around 3% may not benefit from national insurance credits as the benefit is claimed by the higher earner.
The problem could affect households where one parent works and the other stays home to look after their children.
In response to the letter, Nicky Morgan MP, chair of the Treasury Committee, said the Treasury Committee had "long warned the Government" of the issue.
She said:
"Now we have an idea of the scale of this problem, the Government needs to pull its finger out and make sure people are aware of the issue and know how to put it right."
Speak to us about the state pension.

Donald Byrd is one of my favorite musicians during the 70's Blue Note era especially. The Detroit native replaced the late,great Clifford Brown in Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers after a stint in the US Air Force. After launching his career as a band leader in the late 50's,Byrd's became Blue Notes equivalent of Miles Davis in terms of transitioning from acoustic bop jazz to fusion. Along the way,he also helped launch one of jazz-funk's seminal bands in The Blackbyrds. His mid 70's collaborations with the Mizell brothers Larry and Fonce are actually in a class by themselves too.
Around 12 years ago,I began to listen heavy to both the Blackbyrds and Donald Byrd's mid 70's jazz-funk recordings. This came from my dad playing the music of Madlib for me. Now this is a DJ/musician/producer/rapper who loved 70's Blue Note. And focused a lot on Byrd's music from that period. It was through DJ/musician Nigel Hall and his radio show at WMEB in Orono,Maine that I learned where to find one of my favorite pieces Madlib had used,since I wasn't accustomed to first hearing classic funk songs via samples. Turning out that the song in question was the 1974 album title track "Stepping Into Tomorrow".
A thunder-like sound opens into the song. The main groove is established right away. This is a slow,percussive drum from Harvey Mason,a melody setting bass line from Chuck Rainey,Larry Mizell's ARP strings and Byrd's trumpet. As the vocals of Byrd and a trio of female backup singers harmonize on the choruses,a minor chord intro then extends into a series of solos. First Byrd on trumpet,then Gary Bartz's sax and finally Jerry Peters' organ. The main chorus/intro/refrain parts repeat to,with a number of psychedelic,synthesized sonics until the song fades out.
"Stepping Into Tomorrow" is one of those truly democratic jazz/funk numbers. Instrumentally,it was a dream team of the finest of jazz/funk players in that area. And each one is performing at some of their finest on this groove. Its a strong enough groove to stand on its own. Yet it can be sampled all on its own in a way that doesn't destroy its special musical qualities. Its the songs elasticity that represents its strongest quality. While I personally feel original funk songs should be searched for on their own rather than via samples,whatever method one uses to get to this funk will be its own reward.

From The Pastry Dungeon: Carrot Cake Ice Cream Sandwiches
Get the Recipe
Continuing with the theme of last week's post (Nobody Ever Tells the Pastry Chef), here's another unfortunate, far too common theme in my line of work. I'll call it Lies We Tell Our Pastry Chefs.
What follows is a list of lies that myself and fellow pastry chefs have been told. Some are merely exaggerations or overly optimistic concepts to lure hopeful pastry chefs into less than ideal situations, others are lies told by owners to executive chefs to pass down to pastry chefs.
"Just look at this kitchen! You'll have so much space here." The truth? The space was shared with garde manger and pastry was stuck working out of the corner of the service kitchen. See also: "This is your world down here! So much space to yourself plus one prep person in the morning. And that lowboy is for pastry." Up to four prep people in the morning, three quarters of the lowboy were filled with housemade pickles.
"My daughter (the old pastry chef) used to make a wonderful [insert pastry here]..." Nope, that was the current pastry chef, to whom they were speaking at the time.
"Raises based on performance!" Enough said.
"But everyone makes their own puff pastry!" Sure, in a perfect world.
Some lies, however, are fairly harmless. For example: "I'm still looking into getting you an ice cream machine." That's one lie that doesn't matter. Why? Because you don't need an ice cream machine to make Carrot Cake Ice Cream Sandwiches.
Yes, two slices of extraordinarily moist carrot cake holding a slab of fluffy cream cheese semifreddo lightened with whipped eggs can be yours without an ice cream machine. Ice cream sandwiches can be a tricky thing to get just right because your filling needs to be soft enough to bite through but not melt on contact, and your "bread" needs to stay firm but not be rock-hard straight from the freezer. Luckily, the cream cheese semifreddo is so airy from the whipped eggs and so creamy from the cream cheese that it's scoopably soft straight from the freezer. The carrot cake is so moist that it thaws almost immediately. I've never found it necessary to macerate the raisins, but feel free to soak them in rum or whiskey for an hour or so before making the semifreddo.
If you have two loaf pans, the carrot cake and semifreddo can be made simultaneously and chill at the same time. If you only have one, I recommend doing the cake first because the semifreddo needs to set up in the pan.
