If you answered “no” to one or more of the statements above, learn more in the How to Access Your Course Materials From Home section below.
Modern smart phones and cell connected devices provide the best way to access email during emergencies. Cell networks are often buffered from the disruptions in power and are less susceptible to wind damage than cable, phone and fiber networks. When the worst does happen cellular services are some of the first systems to be restored. Microsoft Outlook for IOS and Android provides a modern interface with functionality superior to either UW G Suite Gmail or UW Office 365 Exchange Online. Inbox by Google also provides an updated user experience compared to native phone apps.
Request an email distribution list for your class on MyUW under the Teaching tab. These class lists are created at the time they are requested and will be ready to use the following day. If you want to create a list for cross-listed courses or combinations of courses, submit a Mailman Instructor Class List request. You could also post the class contact list to connect students with one another.
Most social networking services like SnapChat, Twitter and Facebook have wide adoption, but are not safe for FERPA and HIPAA content. These services may be used for some purposes, but great care would need to taken not to expose sensitive information, such as who is in a course. Consider using UW Yammer, which provides a FERPA and HIPAA-aligned environment.
UW Skype for Business, which is both HIPAA– and FERPA-aligned, allows you to conduct a chat with up to 50 participants and a meeting with up to 250 participants. Learn more here.
Zoom makes it easy for UW faculty, staff, and students to participate in group video chat during online class sessions, host virtual office hours, collaborate remotely on research, share screens and host real-time video conversations, host live web broadcasts to thousands of people worldwide and record to the cloud or computer for easy sharing. For more information on Zoom free accounts and Zoom Pro accounts and differences between the two learn more here.
Google Hangouts works with up to 25 people at a time. While you can invite as many people as you want to join a hangout, you can’t have more than 25 people in a hangout at once, while others will get stuck hanging in a lobby. Hangouts is FERPA–aligned, but does not have the BAA required by HIPAA. Hangouts is a feature of UW G Suite. For more about how Hangouts works, see Google’s page about Google Hangouts. Both Google Hangouts and UW Skype for Business or are good tools for chats and conferencing.
Turn your voicemail box into a telephone hotline. Simply update your greeting with timely information about the status of your course(s) or campus operations. Contact UW Information Technology (help@uw.edu) to create enhanced hotline functionality such as call menus.
The Canvas Learning Management system offers a conference feature, available in every course, that you can use to meet live with students. Conferences can accommodate up to 50 people. Learn more.
You can also use Zoom or UW Skype for Business. Zoom unifies cloud video conferencing, simple online meetings, group messaging, and a software-defined conference room solution into one easy-to-use platform. For more information on Zoom you can learn more here. UW Skype for Business (formerly known as “Lync”), which is both HIPAA– and FERPA-aligned, allows you to conduct a chat with up to 50 participants and a meeting with up to 250 participants. Learn more here.
Panopto is a cloud-based lecture capture service. Panopto lets instructors record and publish lectures and other class activities online. Students can then view (and review) the published materials using a Web browser or mobile device. You can use Panopto in two modes: 1) to pre-record and then post video lectures, or 2) to broadcast a live lecture (with a three-second delay). The first mode allows you to upload supplemental video content and to add notes to your course materials. Panopto is not meant to be used as a conferencing tool. To find out more about Panopto, visit the UW Panopto Help Center.
Canvas Student Groups are like a smaller version of your course and are used as a collaborative tool where students can work together on group projects and assignments. Learn more.
Every Canvas course includes the ability to create and review quizzes. Learn more about creating and managing quizzes in Canvas. Learn more about creating quizzes in Canvas.
The Canvas Gradebook helps instructors easily record student scores online, track student progress and calculate final grades. Grades for each assignment can be calculated as points, percentages, complete or incomplete, pass or fail, GPA scale, and letter grades. Provide secure access to co-instructors and TAs to view and edit student grades. Publish scores for students to view securely online. Learn more.
GradePage is a simple interface for quarterly grade submission, can be used by GradeBook users, Canvas users and those who manage their grades using other software or a traditional approach. Learn more.
Methods are available for accessing on campus materials from your personal laptop or home computer. First check with your departmental support staff; your department may already have a system in place for accessing files from home.
Most faculty connect to the UW network from home through their Internet Service Provider (ISP). Learn more. Connecting to the UW Network will allow you to access most of your class resources and tools from home in the event that you need to conduct your class remotely.
The preferred method of connecting is through Husky OnNet (based on the f5 BIG-IP platform) which provides individual users with a secure temporary connection to the UW network from remote locations. Husky OnNet for MacOS and Husky OnNet for Windows are available for download from UWare. Self-supported Android, iOS,and other f5 BIG-IP apps are available from third-party app stores.
Remote desktop access allows you to access your work computer using another computer with a connection to the Internet. Your icons, programs and printers are all available. You can even transfer files between your systems. (For security purposes, remote desktop should only be used in conjunction with a secure connection to the UW network such as Husky OnNet.) In order to use remote desktop access, your work computer will need to remain on (you can be logged out, but the computer must not be turned off) and you will need to know your work computer’s current IP address or name. If you need help finding your IP address, contact your local IT support staff. Find out more about this option at Connecting Remotely.
Because remote desktop access requires your work computer to remain on when you are not at work, the better option is to store your materials online (see “Store Your Course Materials Online” section, below) and then use Husky OnNet (see “Connect to the UW Networks” section, below).
Contact UW Information Technology (help@uw.edu) regarding telephones, UW NetIDs, MyUW, email distribution lists, and general help with any of the technologies mentioned above.
Contact the Center for Teaching and Learning (thectl@uw.edu) to talk about best practices, whether in or out of the classroom.
Contact Disability Services Office (dso@uw.edu) to ensure all your students with disabilities are accommodated by your technology choices.

2017 is the year that, arguably, cryptocurrencies outgrew the niche status to become a force that the public and businesses now reckon with. It is no secret that digital currencies such as Bitcoin are probably going to affect almost every industry. This disruption is mostly attributed to the convenience that comes with a decentralized money system that Bitcoin brings. Talk of privacy, security, fast and cost-effective transactions, immutability, and transparency.
Currently, there are well over 2,000 cryptocurrencies listed on CoinMarketCap, with a total market capitalization of more than $200 billion. Bitcoin, the very first cryptocurrency, is still the most dominant (54% dominance) and has a market cap of over $109 billion.
These numbers prove that more and more people are opening up to the idea of cryptos. According to the infographic below created by BitFortune, many governments, businesses, and non-profits are emerging across a variety of industries with ideas that threaten to disrupt the status quo of various markets and industries totally.
So, what exactly can you do with Bitcoin or your knowledge of it? Stay tuned.
Fast foods: Subway is accepting cryptocurrencies as a form of payment. In the Czech Republic, there is a company called Bitcoin Coffee: you can guess what form of currency is exclusive. Another company – Pizzaforcoins – accepts about 50 different crypto coins. The Burger King branch in Arnhem, Netherlands, lets you pay for your burgers in Bitcoin. Depending on your location, there are numerous other fast food companies that take cryptos.
Travel: If you ever have to travel by air, cheapair.com lets you book flights, hotels, cruises, and rent cars by using Bitcoin. Expedia is a popular online travel booking agency that has the same option.
Real estate: Propy.com and MyCONrealty.com are a few examples of realtors that sell properties for Bitcoin. A Villa in Bali, Indonesia, once went to an anonymous buyer for $600,000, which was equivalent to about 1,000 Bitcoin.
Education: Education institutions are not left out of the thrill of cryptocurrencies. Universities in Cyprus, USA, Switzerland, and Germany are now accepting fees in the form of Bitcoin. One example is the Swiss vocational science and art school Lucerne University, which started accepting Bitcoin in October 2017 through Bitcoin Suisse AG, a payment processing firm.
Buy cars: Just this year, Post Oak Motor Cars became the first luxury vehicle retailer to make cars (Bugatti, Rolls Royce, and Bentley) available for purchase with cryptos in the US. Going a little further back in time, in December 2013, a Tesla model S sold at 91.4 bitcoins. A Lamborghini Gallardo LP 550-2 Coupe too was later bought for an astounding 216.8 bitcoins in 2014.
Retail: Cryptocurrencies found their way into the retail industry a long time ago. For one, Overstock, an online shopping platform, lets you pay for goods in bitcoins.
Buy a coffin: that’s right – if you are ever around St Paul, Minnesota, feel free to stop by Crescent Tide Funeral and Cremation home where you can pay for your coffin as well as other related services in Bitcoin and even get a discount!
Plastic surgery: In Manhattan, bodySCULPT lets people pay for new looks with their Bitcoin fortune. And, if you don’t come from around New York, you could still pay for the flight in BTC and breeze down there.
This is but a portion of the list of things you can pay for in Bitcoin. There are many other companies accepting BTC, and the options keep expanding as more people continue to learn about digital currencies and accept them.
A lot of companies around the world started paying their staff using cryptocurrencies last year. For instance, Victvs, a firm based in Leeds, UK, allows its staff to choose to get paid in Bitcoin. Although this may not appeal to most employees around the globe, such inclination toward adopting cryptos as salary demonstrates a genuine understanding and interest in growing the sector.
What’s more, blockchain is being explored for the possibility of establishing a recruitment process through ‘Intelligent Profiles.’ These profiles are essentially blockchain-verified CVs that ensure every detail of a candidate’s professional and educational background is available in the blockchain and verified by relevant authorities. By extension, this shows that the payment of salaries in cryptocurrencies is only getting started.
Many companies now either have a standing blockchain team or job openings for personnel who can develop and maintain software. But you’ll be surprised; even bankers do not fully understand cryptocurrencies, and especially not the concepts of blockchain technology. The tech is advancing way faster than individuals can learn.
Cryptocurrencies and their underlying blockchain technology have introduced a unique kind of diversification across industries and with numerous opportunities to make a career or switch jobs. And, as more businesses begin to accept Bitcoin, the demand for experts in the field will only go up.
Many well-wishers today are discouraged due to the pervasive corruption in charity organizations. If well-wisher’s funds keep declining, some people who genuinely need help could end up suffering.
The good news is that blockchain disruptions and cryptos have the potential to reduce, if not prevent, fund leaks in charities. WFP is one example of a global organization that is already using the blockchain technology to distribute funds to the hungry around the world strategically.
Evidently, the real world uses of Bitcoin can only be limited by your imagination. More and more applications are coming to life as more people continue to understand and popularize digital currencies. It is not very hard to be convinced that digital currencies are going to be the standard in the future and that blockchain will completely transform the way we conduct transactions and businesses everywhere.
Perhaps the only thing deterring the revolution is a lack of understanding and the fact that cryptos are still very volatile, making it harder for interested parties to convert much of their fortune into bitcoins.

Adam Magdaleno's Page - 30 Bananas a Day!
I used to way over 230 and I'm surprised I didn't way more. I spend my life mimicking a garbage disposal until my senior year of high school when I discovered meat and diary documentaries on top of discovering freelee and durian rider. It's been a year since I started slowly converting to HCRV and I'm 170 now. I also am very strict with my diet as before I would slip occasionally. I believe sticking to fruit, veg and whole grains is the future for humanity if people want the world to run a little smoother than it is today. It will definitely prevent illness and the hate of ones self that I went through. The internet really saved me because most people including doctors I've had gave inadequate dieting advice to me that did not improve myself to satisfaction that I have today.
I read lots of comics and rock bios. Fav movies are classic star wars. My number 1 hobby is music.
I need to make sure exactly what I should eat on the dalie.

Where will he wake up next? A prison cell? A tropical hammock? Or suspended on a cliff?
It has the makings of a pretty good TV show, in the vein of Quantum Leap. Each day, a man wakes up to find himself in a different bed in a different part of the world.
The experience, while clearly always disorienting, can vary dramatically based on the circumstances. Some days he’s in prison, or squatting in a storage bin. Other mornings he wakes up in a goat pen or a tropical hammock.
The premise of constantly being transported against your will or suffering ongoing bouts of amnesia is a classic trope of literature and cinema. In addition to the aforementioned early-1990s TV show Quantum Leap, about a scientist jumping into different bodies through history to solve various problems, the ad might bring to mind the 2000 film Memento, about a man who has no memory for how he arrived in each new place.
In advertising, 2012’s branded content series “Beauty Inside” created byPereira & O’Dell for Toshiba and Intel told the story of a man who wakes up each day in a new body. The campaign won three Grand Prix at the 2013 Cannes Lions. It went on to inspire a Korean movie and subsequent TV show of the same name.
Most recently, the 2018 movie Every Day told the story of a spirt named “A” who awakens in a new body each day, making things especially problematic when the protagonist falls in love with a high school girl.
In the case of this ad, the story is promoting Thomas Cook, a U.K.-based travel booking site. The idea is that when he awakens in a hotel that partners with Thomas Cook, he’s sure to have a well-deserved day of relaxation.
The ad was created by London-based agency Albion, part of the Forsman & Bodenfors network within MDC Partners. It was directed by Ben Wheatley of Moxie Pictures.

Make no mistake. I am not writing this column upon travelling to Durban, South Africa or to the many pre-event events, held elsewhere on planet earth, to 'discuss' and map climate change mitigation. Equipped with my Internet connectivity, I diligently followed happenings at the Summit and prior to it, sitting in my abode in Kiula in the Deep South of Sri Lanka. Here, I venture to grow my own vegetables or at least as I much as I can of it and attempt to lead a modest lifestyle. I emit as little CO2 and try to be as environment friendly as possible to meet my needs. I also try to shun much of the greed that drove things for me for so long in the past. I declare in all humility that this is no random happening. I do this out of choice for, I have understood through my learning and training that there is no other way for us as citizens on this planet to survive but to adjust each of our ways of life to be more austere and prudent.
This, the gist of my column title reflects the sentiments expressed by several key civil society activists to describe the outcome of the UN's Climate Summit (COP 17) that finally concluded last Sunday. After adding on two extra days to it the South African hosts like all good hosts of such events, declared the summit a success. The final agreement reached was described by some as a 'non-agreement' or the culmination of a 'cop-out' strategy by the powerful who in the first place did not want to make binding agreements. The pushed through 'agreement' reached after those two unscheduled days of negotiation. They agreed in principle that a firm carbon mitigation strategy will be designed and adopted by 2015 to be effective after 2020.
South Africa's Kumi Naidoo, who is also the Executive Director of Greenpeace International, had this to say of the outcome "blockers, led by the US, have succeeded in inserting a vital get-out clause that could easily prevent the next big climate deal being legally binding. If that loophole is exploited it could be a disaster".
"Polluters won, people lost," he added. "Our governments this past two weeks listened to the carbon-intensive polluting corporations instead of listening to the people who want an end to our dependence on fossil fuels and real and immediate action on climate change," he said.
"Decisions resulting from the UN COP17 climate summit in Durban constitute a crime against humanity," said 'Climate Justice Now!', a broad coalition of social movements and civil society in a media release. It added "Here in South Africa, where the world was inspired by the liberation struggle of the country's black majority, the richest nations have cynically created a new regime of climate apartheid."
Nnimmo Bassey, Chair of 'Friends of the Earth International' added "An increase in global temperatures of 4 degrees Celsius, permitted under this plan, is a death sentence for Africa, Small Island States, and the poor and vulnerable worldwide. This summit has amplified climate apartheid, whereby the richest 1 percent of the world has decided that it is acceptable to sacrifice the 99 percent." "Delaying real action until 2020 is a crime of global proportions" he said.
What is also interesting is that the two most progressive nations in the climate mitigation front, who in the past few years actually demonstrated that serious mitigation is possible i.e. Japan and Canada, did not agree to be a party to the farce this time around. The EU wanted solid and binding mitigation targets in place without delay and emerging economies such as India and China saw them as deterrents to their growth.
The pre-summit expectations of extending the Kyoto Protocol beyond the commitment period which ends in 2012 and a significant start to the US $100-billion-a-year Green Climate Fund, which aims to help emerging nations deal with the negative effects of climate change are now hanging with thin thread needing further action to make them work.
To most observers who follow the pattern of such negotiations, there is nothing new here. Remember the 'climategate' scandal of emails that broke out just before the Summit in Copenhagen, where climate scientists and their work were portrayed as unreliable? Remember the allegations levelled against the proponent of 'Inconvenient Truth' former Vice President of the US Al Gore and the questioning of the validity of the work of climate scientists and negotiators the likes of Dr. Rajendra Pachauri and his Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change? Remember the forming of a new alliance of nations to block rational agreement at the conclusion of the Copenhagen event?
We must not make a mistake. The conventional energy cartel is hard at work and paid lobbyists are busy all year around working out strategy to keep out any binding real deals out of the agenda. It is now a game of buying time to make sure that the powerful are in the forefront of the race of creating commercially viable alternative energy options.
The delegates unable to reach agreement during the allocated time of ten days for the Summit, stayed back and worked the weekend to save face for hosts South Africa. Creditable indeed, yet like they say in good process management, one needs to do things on time, so it will not be too late to make the action taken to be meaningful, valid or even useful.
But then, a 100 billion climate fund deal was also on a stick dangling for most delegations to want to come to some agreement on its disbursement and that should explain the reaction of some of the less powerful but much affected nations at this particular summit.
John m. Broder in a New York Times article published in the immediate aftermath of the Summit, summed it well "For 17 years, officials from nearly 200 countries have gathered under the auspices of the United Nations to try to deal with one of the most vexing questions of our era - how to slow the heating of the planet.
Every year they leave a trail of disillusion and discontent, particularly among the poorest nations and those most vulnerable to rising seas and spreading deserts. Every year they fail to significantly advance their own stated goal of keeping the average global temperature from rising more than 2 degrees Celsius, or about 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit, above pre-industrial levels" he said.
He added, "there is no denying the dedication and stamina of the environment ministers and climate diplomats who conduct these talks. But maybe the task is too tall. The issues on the table are far broader than atmospheric carbon levels or forestry practices or how to devise a fund to compensate those most affected by global warming.
Indeed it is. It is an issue that demonstrates the quality of our humanity and the associated moral responsibility, integrity, honesty and transparency all gearing to ensure survival not only of humans, but of all living beings.

This image was posted in the Incompetent Cervix Awareness group on Facebook and I felt compelled to share. During my physical therapy, one of the surprising tidbits I picked up was just how important it was for me to destress, as tension is often held in the pelvic floor (for both pregnant and non-pregnant women) which can lead to premature dilation/ early delivery in women who are pregnant.
I remember at our first prenatal appointment with this baby, the doctor looked specifically at Grant and said, "This is going to be a really really tough pregnancy for your wife. Your job is to make it less stressful." and we kind of laughed it off. Come full circle, it has been a tough pregnancy- perhaps in a different way than she had imagined, but letting go of the stress, trying to keep light-hearted and positive and practice things like meditation has helped me along the way.
Scientifically, stress-related "Corticotropin-releasing hormone plays an important role in the etiology of preterm delivery associated with maternal or fetal stress." (Am J Obstet Gynecol 1999;180:S264-6.) Managing hormonal reactions can lead to longer gestation by not putting activating the body into panic mode. According to the March of Dimes, high levels of stress can cause a dangerous increase in blood pressure and heart disease- as well as increasing the risk for a preterm baby (born before week 37) and low birth weight (under 5.5 lbs). Maternal stress can lead to fetal stress, which is why patients like myself are monitored every few hours usually. Maternal stress while pregnant has also been linked with anxiety and attention problems for the child later in life.
Typically, most of my medical decisions are based on hard data-driven science, weighing odds and risk factors and unfortunately there is not tons of conclusive evidence on leveraging stress-reducing techniques to prolong pregnancy, but I honestly believe my personal choice to be as stress-free as possible and prioritize the health of my baby has helped my body stabilize and keep this baby cooking. Food for thought at least.

Stumped on what to buy him for Christmas? Whether it’s your dad, your boyfriend, or your brother, we have over 40 amazing ideas! See them below.
I told my husband not to read this post — because, spoiler alert, it has a lot of his gifts. He told me he wanted “whisky and hot sauce” for Christmas, so I got him the super cool Game Of Thrones White Walker by Johnnie Walker scotch whiskey. You are meant to serve it chilled, and the bottle “ices” when it’s frozen — so cool! You can pour it into the Rabbit Freezable Whiskey Glasses! Rabbit has the best bar accessories! I’m also gifting him the FabFitFun box — their very first men’s box — because, to be honest, I’m 6 months pregnant and they did all the work for me. It has cute socks, grooming products, headphones and more — a little bit of everything.
I’m also getting him a Starbucks gift card, because men love practical gifts. Kiehl’s and RITUALS have really great skincare and shaving sets, which again, are super easy to gift as is. A great gift for Dad is the Timex Waterbury Traditional Chronograph Watch, which is a timeless design. It’s made of stainless steel and a genuine leather strap, but is still an affordable $149. Bellacosa’s Cabernet Sauvignon is a great bottle that’s not too fancy to drink on a “regular Wednesday” night. It would pair incredibly well with a steak from Gallaghers. The iconic NYC steakhouse has gift boxes of steaks that ship nationwide, and are delicious.

MANNHEIM, Germany — Silicon Software GmbH, manufacturer of frame grabbers and intelligent image processing solutions, moved into its new headquarter in the modern office city Eastsite in Mannheim. The international IT company has fulfilled the wish for larger premises by moving into a newly constructed building due to a steady growth in the number of employees to more than 50 colleagues.
The company with its own hardware and software solutions, which is active in the image processing industry, celebrated its 20th anniversary last year. Based in Mannheim from the beginning, Silicon Software has developed from a start-up into a market leader for image processing solutions in Germany. When the current room situation was again too cramped, various offers were evaluated.
"Moving into an entire building seems to be the best solution to enable further growth of the business and the number of employees," explained Managing Director Dr. Klaus-Henning Noffz and Chief Technology Officer Dr. Ralf Lay, who founded the company. The company has its own branches in the U.S. and Canada and is active in sales through a worldwide network of distributors.
Silicon Software develops products for the growth markets robotics and automation, which take over visual quality assurance tasks in production. For example, bottle contents are examined for foreign objects, wooden surfaces are inspected for the smallest defects or operations are monitored in automated surgery.
The new building offers approximately 2,500 square-meters of office space allocated to five stories and a free arrangement of the inner space. It is therefore adaptable to changing working methods and staff structures in the future. The modular construction type without main wall, using twelve modules in the width, five in the height and four in the depth, makes the whole structure of the building, which has been planned by the architects Fischer Architekten GmbH and be executed by B.A.U. GmbH & Co. KG as building constructor. The investment volume reached approximately €10 million.

I know Devs are probably busy getting the next version as functional as possible, but I see that most of the Group settings and tasks issues seem to be related to all clients not having the exact same settings. I was wondering if adding a way to delete all main settings from group clients(Snappins, Image, Kernel, Bios, EFI, Printers, AD) so that they can be set to the group as a whole would fix many of the issues?
Right now Group Snapping does seem to add snappins to each client, however it will not show it in the group management interface. What do you guys think?
The snapin issue is known about, it’s fixed in RC-9 already.
For now, hosts need images assigned in order to deploy snapins via groups.
And, you can clear host settings via groups already. It’s exactly the same as clearing them on the individual host - but with groups.

London — A strike at the 1.2 GW Cordemais coal-fired power plant in France has been extended until further notice, operator EDF said Wednesday morning in a note on its transparency website.
Workers are protesting against a plan to close the plant by 2022.
Output from France's four remaining coal plants with 3 GW capacity was zero Wednesday, data from grid operator RTE show, with most coal units also not generating in December.
Workers at Cordemais near Nantes in western France have been on strike since early December with the CGT union calling for a moratorium on closure while biomass conversions plans were assessed.
EDF modernized Cordemais under the Coal 2035 plan before the Macron administration decided to fast-track coal closures.
In August, EDF presented plans to convert Cordemais to biomass under the Ecocombust project.
Uniper, which operates France's other two coal plants, said last week that it has entered into exclusive talks with Czech energy company EPH on the sale of its French power plant assets with the consultation process with employee representatives starting this month.

Moving on from the Zoolander reminiscences, the important part of the Netflix Canada deal is, for the next few years, subscribers will need to turn to the streaming giant as the only place to subscribe to see certain first-run films. If you have been thinking of subscribing to Netflix Canada, the Paramount deal should certainly go on the "reasons subscribing is a good idea" side.
If you are a Canadian who has Netflix, please give this article a boost by liking or commenting. My fragile ego wasn’t too certain writing this would be worthwhile. It needs to be fed to warrant an article of this caliber in the future.

If stuffed cabbage and spaghetti with meatballs had a baby, it would be cabbage with meatballs. Stuffed cabbage, also know as cabbage rolls, is a delicious, classic Eastern European dish, but it takes nearly all day to make. Cut some corners and try something a little different by turning the filling into meatballs and stewing the cabbage directly in the savory tomato sauce.
A simple tomato sauce spiked with red wine vinegar and brown sugar slowly simmers along with savoy or Napa cabbage, until tender and flavorful. Meanwhile, meatballs flavored with garlic and paprika bake in the oven (smoked or sweet paprika work well here). The dish has tons of flavor and is lower in carbs than spaghetti and meatballs. Plus, it all comes together in just 45 minutes and is largely hands-off.
Cabbage and Meatballs will serve three as a main dish or four as a side. Try serving it with roasted beet salad with crumbled feta for a lighter meal. Add easy barley and mushroom pilaf or Hungarian stuffed peppers and Hungarian fried bread (Langos) for a real Eastern European feast. Just don't forget the sour cream!
Heat a large sauce pot over medium heat. Add the oil followed by 3/4 of the onion and 3 minced garlic cloves. Saute for 3 minutes or until the onion is translucent. Add the crushed tomatoes, brown sugar, and red wine vinegar. Season with salt and pepper and stir. Add the chopped cabbage and carefully stir. Bring to a low simmer and cover. Let cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until the cabbage is tender.
Meanwhile, make the meatballs. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, remaining 1/4 of the onion, remaining 2 minced garlic cloves, egg, breadcrumbs, Worcestershire sauce, and paprika. Season with salt and pepper and mix well by hand.
Form into 1-inch balls and place on a greased large baking sheet spaced evenly apart. Bake for 10 minutes, or until cooked through.
Add the meatballs to the cabbage and sauce and serve topped with parsley and sour cream on the side.

If you would like to proceed, you will receive your first chiropractic adjustment. Please allow 90 minutes for this first appointment, including 30 minutes to complete the paperwork. You do not need to prepare in any particular way for the appointment. Regular clothing is fine. We ask that you avoid wearing jewelry.
On your initial call to the practice, we will book your first appointment and three subsequent visits. We do this to ensure you have guaranteed access to your chiropractor, as we operate several waiting lists.
After your initial exam, your chiropractor will suggest a course of care and inform you of the estimated time this will take.
These appointments generally take 20-30 minutes each.
The initial phase of care is pain relief; we will see you as frequently as needed until we have achieved this stage. Should there be no improvement, we will re-assess and if needed refer you to the appropriate health care practitioner.
We then generally schedule visits once every few weeks or a month apart. During the second phase, our goal is to structurally balance and strengthen you.
Maintaining that balance is the goal of phase three. Our aim is to get you to a place of maintenance as quickly as possible, and have you maintain structural stability and strength as you move forward.

The New England Revolution announced a new sponsorship partnership making Sovereign | Santander the official bank of the New England Revolution.

According to the press release, also includes day-of-game sponsorships; on-site game day programs; community clinics run by the Revolution Academy and Revs players; naming rights for the team’s official “Man of the Match” award; on-field advertising during Revolution matches; away game trips; as well as television broadcast, radio broadcast, print and digital inventory.” Pele is the official soccer voice of the bank and he was on hand as part of the announcement. It is noteworthy that the quotes distributed as part of the press release from the Revs perspective came from Robert Kraft and not one of the team front office representatives.
One final note. Hamas is enforcing a media boycott of Barcelona after the team game a complimentary ticket to Gilad Schalit, the Israeli soldier that was held captive for a number of years by militants in the Gaza Strip. As a result, no television or radio stations will broadcast Barcelona games and no newspapers will cover the games.

The beautiful prehistoric university city of Salamanca is a great destination to learn Spanish in Spain because the traditional and the modern collide here in their finest form. Upon arrival, from a distance the city greets visitors with a majestic Cathedral and gives a taste of the treasures Salamanca has to offer.
Salamanca is ideal for Spanish language courses because the residents speak traditional Spanish, which is very easy for learners to understand and communicate in. Our partner school is located in the charming old town.
The stunning surroundings, the pleasant team and excellent features of the school are inspiring and make learning easy. In this rather small town, after class, you are quickly in the midst of life and can enjoy either the captivating sights or relax in one of the lovely petite cafés.
You should certainly witness early evening in the city when Salamanca drowns in the golden glow of the sun. This is due to the unique stone from Villa mayor, a nearby town of Salamanca, from which all downtown buildings were built. The houses seem to sparkle in the evening sun and give the impression that you are in a city of pure gold.
The University of Salamanca is the oldest university still in existence in Spain and one of the oldest in Europe. The university, where currently about 38,000 students study, was established in the 13th century and it fills the city with life. The students keep Salamanca young and vibrant and ensure colourful and diverse nightlife. Those who are not tired from sightseeing by day can enjoy the numerous clubs and bars or end the evening at the theatre or cinema. Another benefit of Salamanca is the rather small size of the city. Hence you can simply do most routes on foot and it is not far from your accommodation, even during late hours.
With Spanish language courses in Salamanca you will not only improve your language skills, but also fall in love with the city!
The school is very centrally located, but quiet. It is just a short walk from the main attractions of the old town with its many cafes and tapas bars. The Convento de San Esteban is located directly opposite. During the breaks you can relax and enjoy some fresh air in the small adjoining park.
The language school is well-situated in Salamanca’s city centre, next to a pleasant little park and across from the San Esteban Monastery. Here you will enjoy the beauty of the old town and still be close to the Gran Vía, Salamanca's main street. Cafés, tapas bars and all sorts of shops for your daily needs are within a few minutes' walk.
The language school, founded in 1990, has a warm family atmosphere where everyone can feel at home. The sophisticated furnishing of the school not only invites you to linger over conversation but also facilitates learning, as everything is labeled in Spanish. The school staff are also happy to give you good tips on what to do during your down time and will also help you plan your weekend trips.
Facilities include ten classrooms and a computer room with Internet access. There's also Wi-Fi throughout the campus. Another important part of our Spanish language school is our comprehensive library with Spanish literature; more than one hundred dictionaries, numerous grammar books, travel guides and videos are available. In addition, students have access to TVs, DVDs, interesting Spanish games, and language-learning CD-ROMs. The front foyer of the school has comfortable seating where you can have a coffee, a chat or read the newspaper – all in Spanish of course!
The school also offers its students free daily tutorials where participants can discuss their progress and any issues and uncertainties with a teacher. Our language school in Salamanca is also happy to arrange a so-called "intercambio" for you where you'll meet regularly with a language exchange partner from Spain. This will allow you to practise your Spanish with a native speaker and allow your partner to practise a language they want to learn.
Our language school in Salamanca is the perfect setting for you to learn Spanish while experiencing life in Salamanca.
Learn Spanish in Salamanca Reviews 4.81 of 5 Stars based on 8 reviews.

These apartments are ideal for those who want independence but also want to be in an international community. The residents themselves should make sure that the common language within the building is Spanish so that everybody can practise their Spanish in their spare time.
In some shared apartments there are also Spanish student residents, which is a great opportunity for you to use your Spanish language. The facilities in the apartments are simple, but the rooms are cleaned prior to the guests arrive and the equipment and furniture is guaranteed to be in good condition. Each apartment can accommodate between 4 and 6 people. There is a communal kitchen, one or two bathrooms and usually also a living room with television. Apartments with Wi-Fi are available for a small fee. All the apartments are self-catering, and you can cook your meals alone or together with your other roommates in the kitchen.

It’s the week-end everybody! And I can’t believe I’m saying this already, but we woke this morning to just a light dusting of snow on the deck. Even though I find the first few snowfalls kind of exciting, I do feel that we seemed to have skipped fall entirely.
I’m hopeful that this was just a blip on Mother Natures part, and this week we will be back to crisp, windy, sunny fall days.
Yesterday I was sorting through my old bakery recipe book, looking for some inspiration, when I came across this recipe. For those of you who might be new followers, I used to own a little bake shop and let that go so I could focus on my real love. Which is you. And blogging. And creating.
And I’m so glad I did, because it’s given me so many new opportunities that I wouldn’t have had otherwise. And not waking up at 3 am on Saturday mornings anymore is a major bonus. I can tell you, your local baker is seriously sleep deprived friends.
These Mini Brownie Bottom Cherry Cheesecakes were one of my most popular items in the fall and winter. Still, when I run into some of my loyal customers, they bring up these cheesecakes and tell me how they miss them so.
They are a decadent treat that can easily be customized. The brownie bottom is just the right amount of rich chocolate, paired with the creamy cheesecake topping and of course, the cherries on top.
This is also an amazing treat when you swap out the cherries for whole pecans and a good drizzle of homemade caramel sauce.
As you know, I love a dessert that can be made ahead and these are no exception. Cheesecakes freeze very well, so can be prepared a week or two ahead of time if needed. Just thaw, garnish with toppings and serve.
Reminiscing through my old book sure did make my heart skip a beat. It was such a busy and exciting time in my life. Even though I do miss the bake shop sometimes, I’m so happy that I get to share these recipes with you. I’m exactly where I was meant to be.
For the brownie layer, mix the flour and salt in a small bowl and set aside. Place a small glass or stainless bowl over a pot of simmering water and melt the chocolate and butter.In a medium mixing bowl, combine the sugar, eggs and vanilla and whisk until well incorporated. Whisk in the chocolate mixture and mix well. Fold in the flour mixture with a spatula, just until incorporated.
Spoon the brownie mixture into the bottom of each cupcake liner. Bake for 10 minutes and set aside. Once baked, reduce the oven temperature to 300°.
While the brownie layer is baking, prepare the cheesecake layer. Beat the cream cheese and sugar in a medium bowl for at least 4 minutes, or until smooth and well combined.Add salt and vanilla. Add the eggs, one at a time, only mixing until the eggs are combined. Be careful not to over mix and add too much air.
Top each brownie layer with the cream cheese mixture. Bake for 20 minutes. Turn the oven off, prop the oven door open just slightly with a wooden spoon and leave the cheesecakes inside until the oven cools.(I just found the texture was a little nicer this way and the cheesecakes were less prone to cracking). Put room temperature cheesecakes in the fridge or just in the cake pop makers to chill for 3-4 hours before topping and serving.
Top chilled cheesecakes with cherry pie filling and serve.
You can bake the cheesecakes without leaving them in the oven to cool. Bake at 325° for approx. 25 minutes. Cool to room temperature and chill.
Once the cheesecakes have come to room temperature, they can be easily frozen for later use. Place them in containers, in a single layer and wrap with plastic wrap. Defrost and garnish with cherries just before serving.

How do you get good at Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, quickly?
his is a topic that I think about frequently to help my students at Zenyo Jiu Jitsu Baltimore.
The answer may surprise you. A study published in Nature Neuroscience looked at why some people learn and retain information better than others.
Those who learned the fastest, used less, not more brain functioning.

Die-hard McCartney fans whose record collections aren’t already jammed with his solo and Wings projects may want to consider this two-album set featuring the biggest hits (but not necessarily best songs) of the “cutest” Beatle.
When McCartney is in prime songwriting form he can still churn out tunes that are nearly up to Beatles quality. Such tracks on All the Best are “Maybe I’m Amazed”, “My Love”, “Band on the Run”, and “Another Day”.
Unfortunately, when Paul gets wimpy, there are few wimpier–as you can hear on “Let ‘Em In”, “With a Little Luck”, and “Silly Love Songs”. S0mewhere in between his best and worst are the collaborations with Stevie Wonder (“Ebony and Ivory”) and Michael Jackson (“Say Say Say”).
This record would have come a lot closer to living up to its name if there were more tracks from his best albums–Band on the Run and Venus and Mars. It wouldn’t hurt to have tossed that rockin’ gem of a single, “Junior’s Farm”, on here either.

The ice skating trail is the premier winter attraction (and best-kept secret!), but MacGregor Point also offers skiing, snowshoeing, camping and other winter fun!
Breezy starting later this evening, continuing until tomorrow afternoon, and rain starting tomorrow afternoon.

Peter Drucker, the famous management guru, once said “If you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it”. So do we need to regularly measure our blood pressure to manage it? According to a report by the National Center for Health Statistics, as of 2008 1 in 3 Americans, an estimated 68 million has high blood pressure. In addition, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that 30% of American adults have prehypertension, i.e. blood pressure that is higher than normal but not yet in the high blood pressure range. Prehypertension if not managed, raises the risk for high blood pressure. Medscape, a popular web resource for physicians and healthcare professionals, reports that Hypertension is the most important modifiable risk factor for coronary heart disase ( the leading cause of death in North America), stroke (the third leading cause), congestive heart failure, end-stage renal disases and peripheral vascular disease.
One day, when I was told that my blood pressure was in the border line I did a bit of research and the numbers above alarmed me. The good news was that in most cases, especially if you are in the borderline or prehypertensive, it can be controlled with diet and excercise. Ofcourse one strong recommendation is to quit smoking. I was a smoker for 10 years and I can empathize with anyone who is trying to give it up. But you can see the difference in just a matter of days. While reading a book on the benefits of the DASH diet on hypertension by Marla Heller, I came across some interesting facts. Apparently within 20 minutes of your last cigarette, your blood pressure and pulse rate normalizes. Within 8 hours, the carbon monoxide level in your blood normalizes. After 10 years, your risk of dying from lung cancer is almost the same as for someone who never smoked. After 15 years of not smoking, your risk of a stroke or heart disease is the same as a lifelong non-smoker. So its never too late to quit. Managing your blood pressure starts with you taking the initiative and control of your health.
Combination of quality improvement strategies, e.g. keeping track of your blood pressure on a regular basis can vastly improve patient outcomes as per a report by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality(AHRQ). Blood pressure can be measured at home and regularly taking measurements and recording these measurements can significantly improve managing your blood pressure. You can take advantage of today’s mobile technology, computing power, connectivity and tools that can help you manage your blood pressure measurements to keep track and share your progress with your doctor.

"We encourage the public to be patient"
Idaho Attorney General Office Spokesman Todd Dvorak has confirmed that several investigators with the Criminal Division were in Council, Idaho on Monday, June 13th.
Although details are scarce, Dvorak did confirm that the visit was related to the Jack Yantis case.
The Idaho Attorney General and FBI are the main agencies investigating the circumstances surrounding the fatal shooting of Jack Yantis in 2015.
The Idaho State Police handed over their findings in March but did not disclose what they found.
Idahoans have continually asked the Attorney General why the investigation is taking so long, including a gathering at the Idaho Statehouse to confront employees about the case.
No word on when the findings will be released through the Attorney General’s Office.

Today’s residents of Chula Vista have much in common with citizens of a hundred years ago. Make that a thousand years or more. Southern California has always been an arid land, with cycles of drought, interspersed with wet years every now and again.
In December of 1915, San Diego’s city fathers tackled the issue from a completely different angle. They hired a rainmaker!
This originally appeared at the San Diego Free Press.

So the other day I decided to cook healthy Israeli Couscous with some Char-grilled veggies and since so many of you have been asking me for the recipe, I thought why not put it all into a bite-sized post for you!
So the first thing you want to do is mix up a beautiful marinade for your veggies. To do this, whisk together your balsamic vinegar, garlic and dijon mustard – keep whisking and slowly add in your olive oil until your marinade is perfectly combined.
Take a hot minute to enjoy the buff smell and quickly move over to your chopping board to prep your vegetables.
I roughly cut my onions in half, then in half once again, but as they will be going on my ‘lean grilling machine’ I’m going to cut them in a way that they can be kept together as best they can, not too chunky, certainly not thin! Do the same by cutting up your peppers, cougettes and any other vegetables you might want to add to this dish. Tomatos are always a good look for some extra colour but I tend to avoid as it flares up various skin irritations (particularly psoriasis, stay away from the toms if you suffer from this).
Add your prepped veg into a bowl and pour half of your marinade over them. Mix it all together to ensure an even coat. Preheat your grill (or frying pan, wok, etc) and start placing the vegetables, cooking them through to the char-grillend look starts to show. Yum.
Now for the Israeli CousCous – also known as ‘Giant CousCous’, I like to use the Wholegrain pack from Waitrose.
Heat the olive oil in a pan over a medium-high heat, you need to chuck in the couscous, ensure you coat them in the oil in the pan and keep an eye on it, shuffling the pan occasionally until you see a slight change in colour (usually toasty, slight darkening) but do not let it burn! On the side of this you will now place your vegetable stock in a pan and bring it to the boil. Cover the CousCous with your hot stock and top up with boiling water (straight from the kettle) to top it up. Bring the couscous to the boil, cook until you have the al dente thing going on and drain well.
Then grab yourself a nice big bowl and pour your couscous in, chop pre-grilled vegetables to sizes that suit you and chuck into the mix. Toss in the remaining marinade and stir. Once it looks good, place it to one side until it reaches room temperature. At this point I like to finish it with chunks of avacado, mozeralla, fresh basil, a lashing or two of chilli oil and salt & pepper to taste.
There we have it, all done and all yum. Let me know how you get on if you try this dish yourself!
