Welcome to Tyson’s Treasure, book 11 in Heroes for Hire, reconnecting readers with the unforgettable men from SEALs of Honor in a new series of action-packed, page turning romantic suspense that fans have come to expect from USA TODAY Bestselling author Dale Mayer.
Tyson lost his wife and child several years ago, and he knows it’s time to move on… So when his wife’s best friend barrels into his new life and he finds out she’s in trouble – as in serious stalker trouble – he steps up because he owes it to his late wife. Only he quickly finds out he wants to be at Kai’s side – any way he can.
Kai has wanted Tyson for so damn long, but from the first moment her best friend saw him first, the two were like a lock and key. When Kai sets her eyes on him for the first time in years while doing a demonstration for a new training program her company developed, she realizes her feelings haven’t changed.
But her life has changed, and she has a huge issue she doesn’t want anyone to know about. After all, she’s got a badass skill set… She can handle a stalker on her own… right?
Or maybe not. As the two delve deeper into the Kai’s troubles, they find out things are much more complicated than they seem – and much more-deadly.
Tyson Morgan sat in front of the compound’s dining room table. He hadn’t seen such an incredible collection of men and women in one place since he had left the military. He never expected to see them in the private sector.
Tyson glanced at Jace. They both turned to look at Michael.
“We are. We’ve been lucky,” Levi said.
Tyson felt a stir of interest inside. Which was an improvement over everything being just plain dead for so long. He had walked away from the military after his ideals had been shattered at the betrayal of several SEAL buddies of his. He hadn’t had anything intrigue him in a long time. Even coming here hadn’t been a decision on his own as much as it had been following Jace and Michael. But Michael had been a large part of it. If this place was good enough to bring him out of retirement, then maybe this was where Tyson belonged too.
Kai … Well, he remembered her as being a small dark-haired dynamo who could put a man in his place in seconds. Not just by her tone of voice since she was military all the way. Not one of the men would’ve crossed her. She held their respect and their admiration. And he knew more than a few guys who gave her the top spot in their wet dreams.
He glanced at Michael and saw laughter in his expression. Mercy, Michael’s partner, kissed him on the cheek. Michael wrapped an arm around her and tucked her up close. They were new in town. Apparently they were purchasing land together, building a place right next to the compound. Not a bad idea. There was some confusion about Mercy’s future, except for one part of it—she was firmly attached to Michael.
Tyson didn’t know what that felt like. He’d been alone for the last two years—since he’d lost his wife and child. His life had taken such a downward turn that he didn’t know which way was up anymore. He just put one foot in front of the other because that was what he needed to do. But his heart hadn’t been in it for a long time.
He’d have been lost without Michael this last year.
As I walk forward on my path to the future,I choose laughter, love, and light as my sutures, stitching together my lifetime of choices, as the essential fabric of my being rejoices in the love, friendships, and faith that follow the steps I take as I flow into my tomorrow.

My name is Levi Kabella. I am a 22-year-old senior in college studying Pre-Medicine Psychology with a minor in Biology. I aspire to become an orthopedic surgeon and help others who experience the physical setbacks I experienced.
My fitness journey began when I was in elementary school. I participated and excelled in football, wrestling, track, and soccer. Unfortunately, while playing varsity football in high school, I tore my ACL three times and menisci twice, resulting in five surgeries, all on my left leg.
Why did I keep playing after multiple major injuries? Because nothing was going to stop me from playing Division I football — except tearing my ACL a third time, thus ending my sports career before it had a chance to begin.
Following the end of my sports career, I realized life consisted of more than sports. I began shadowing surgeries and decided to pursue a career in medicine and science.
Throughout this time period, I experienced multiple family tragedies: My grandma died of cancer at age 59. I saved my grandpa from being crushed by a tractor (an accident that ultimately resulted in his death at age 63). My aunt received a diagnosis of endometrial stromal sarcoma that metastasized (now in remission, thankfully). And most recently, my mom experienced multiple stroke-like events referred to as transient ischemic attacks (TIAs).
The last family emergency hit me hard, and I did what many 21-years-olds choose to do during difficult times: I increased my partying and unhealthy eating to distract myself.
I gained a significant amount of fat while losing muscle mass. In high school, I weighed 175 pounds and could bench 300 pounds. I did not keep this strict regimen in college, but I did my best to maintain a decent physique.
Following this family emergency, I stopped eating consistently and weighed as much as I did when I was a sophomore in high school (155 pounds).
At the end of my junior year in college, I realized something needed to change. I hated the way I looked and knew I was not a healthy individual. This is when Dr. Stoppani entered my life.
I purchased his book Encyclopedia of Muscle and Strength in 2014, but I never opened it. In May, I changed that and found Shortcut to Shred and Dieting 101.
I wanted to lose my love handles and return to the physical form of my high school days. I stepped on the scale one time and weighed 155 pounds. I did not step on the scale again until I wrote this article, so I could give some sort of progress report since I did not take measurements or body-fat percentage.
I strictly used the mirror to observe my progress. Following the completion of Shortcut to Shred and Super Shredded 8 — about 14 weeks’ worth of programs — I weighed 165 pounds. During Shortcut to Shred, I utilized Dieting 101 and the Shortcut to Shred diet outlined by Dr. Stoppani.
I did not take all of the supplements outlined in the diet due to monetary restrictions, but I did purchase Pro JYM, Pre JYM, and Post JYM — all fantastic products that seriously contributed to my success in both programs.
During Super Shredded 8, I continued the Shortcut to Shred diet because I never went below 0.5 grams of carbs per pound of body weight.
After four weeks of Super Shredded 8, I progressed to Intermittent Fasting Carb Cycle (IFCC). I utilized IFCC until the end of Super Shredded 8. I am now beginning to reverse diet to build some muscle mass through Full-Body Shortcut to Size.
My motivation to complete the programs and stick to the diet came from my fiancée and future wedding. I am getting married in October of 2019 and am determined to be at my physical peak when that time comes. The quick and visible results have definitely contributed as well. Being able to look in the mirror and be proud of what you see is a fantastic feeling.
My advice to others who are either struggling to continue their fitness journey or just starting it: Keep fighting.
Life is full of adversity and difficult challenges. Training hard in the gym relieves so many of life’s pressures — it’s just not worth skipping! Feeling and looking your best allows you to tackle other challenges in life with an unrelentingly positive attitude. If you’re mentally tough, the body will follow!
I hope my story serves as inspiration for those who are struggling, and I wish the best to those who are succeeding.
Start working on your own success story with proven programs like Super Shredded 8 and diet plans like Intermittent Fasting Carb Cycle by becoming a member of JimStoppani.com.

You are here: Home / Auto Repair Shop Management / Technology Lover or Technology Hater?
Just because what you have ‘works’ doesn’t mean you can’t find a better way to do things.
Welcome to the 21st Century! Are you thrilled to be here, or would you like to get into a time machine and go back to a simpler time, when everything wasn’t connected to the Internet, Transmissions were 3 speed and car windows had handles.
For those of you that long for The Good Olde Days, take heart! Technology isn’t always your enemy. In fact, with a bit of preparation, you can actually get your auto repair shop team to do most of the technological heavy lifting and give yourself a break from having to deal with all minutia that can bog you down.
First, though, you have to deal with the fact that technology is here, and it’s here to stay as long as there’s electric power. Even without ‘house current’, you can still get personal electronic devices that run off solar power, or recharge through your vehicle’s dashboard interface. In other words, there’s no point in hating it, since it’s everywhere, and won’t go away.
Having dealt with that, how can you move forward, and start finding things to, at the very least, not hate about technology? The simplest way may be the so-called smartphone. While you may feel that it’s smarter than you, so you leave it at home so it doesn’t embarrass you in public, give yourself a break and become app-savvy: learn how to use phone apps to perform tasks, like reading bar codes, QR codes and the like.
Then you can start learning how to make, correct, and send simple documents with your smartphone. While this little tool may not be ideal for writing an essay or 25 page business plan, you can create and distribute notes, memos, and other short documents that just might save you some time away from your computer keyboard.
Now comes the really fun part. How about using technology, automation, and ‘cloud computing’ to run your business? Auto repair software can be a major boost to your bottom line, fiscally, but it can also free you from all the tedious, handwritten tasks you have to deal with now.
Why ‘write’ a work order when you can just plug in some information and have it printed out? Why search all over a car for a VIN number, when you can just plug in the car’s license plate number, and have that VIN number automatically added to your work order?
The same goes for old-school time-clocks. Why have your employees punch in with a physical time card when they can use their own smartphone to do the same task at the speed of light? Mind you, those employees won’t have permission to see your private business information. Only you can allow anyone else to see what’s going on beyond their level of participation in the business.
Profit Boost shop management software can give you as much or as little technology as you want. The most important thing it can give you is security. Since all your data is backed up off-site, you never have to worry about a computer dying on you, or a power failure wiping out years of facts and figures.
Integration with Quickbooks, Carfax, several parts suppliers’ current prices for parts, etc., means you can save time, money, and aggravation by deciding to become tech-savvy. Best of all, if you want, Profit Boost can help you figure out how to improve your bottom line by ‘tweaking’ how you do business.
Of course, if you’re a technology lover, all this may seem like the best deal you’ve heard of in a long time. You’d be right!

5 Fulfilling Ways to Volunteer as a Family - And Have Fun Doing So!
It’s never too early to teach your children the importance of giving back to their community and helping others. There’s something incredibly fulfilling about spending your time in a way that benefits others, knowing you’ve done something to help. While there are no shortage of senior centers and soup kitchens for teens and adults to volunteer at, it can be tough to find opportunities to volunteer as a family. However, it can be done. The next time you’re on the hunt for a family volunteering opportunity, consider these suggestions.
#1 Spend time at a food bank.
Teaching your children about food scarcity might be a great way to help them understand how lucky they are to find healthy food on their dinner plate. Many food banks have opportunities for families with small children to volunteer. Kids can help stack fruits and vegetables or sort nonperishable items. In some places, kids can even volunteer with their families in community gardens which is also a great way to teach them a valuable skill.
Cleaning up your local parks and trails is an easy way to give back to your community and the earth, and can be a great opportunity to teach the kids about the environment and our impact upon it. The best part? You don’t have to fill out a form or sign a waiver to participate. The next time you head out on a family hike, or go to the beach for a day by the ocean, bring a pair of gloves and a recyclable bag. Challenge each member of your family to see who can fill their bag first with the most trash!
#3 Create care kits for the homeless.
There are likely people in your community who struggle to keep a roof over their head or provide basic amenities for themselves. Spend time as a family creating care kits – sealable plastic bags filled with items that someone living out in the elements may find useful. Basic hygiene products like toothpaste, a toothbrush, and hand sanitizer, small snacks or treats, and even clothing items like gloves and socks are often appreciated. Once the kits are assembled, hit the streets and pass them out to those in need. Alternately, you can find a local homeless center or food bank to drop them off for distribution.
#4 Volunteer at a local animal shelter.
Volunteering at the local animal shelter or rescue center can be a great way to give back to the community, especially if you’re an animal-lover. Many shelters do impose minimum age limits, but kids can still find ways to participate and volunteer if the whole family is involved. You could even consider fostering a pet and get your kids involved in the day to day care of caring for an animal at home. Not only will you be helping to save a life, you’ll be teaching your children to care and respect another living being. Also, if your family has considered a pet but hasn’t been ready to take the leap, spending some time scooping poop, walking pups, and socializing with animals at the local shelter may help sway your decision one way or another.
#5 Adopt a family around the holidays.
Another fun and fulfilling way to volunteer as a family is to sponsor a family who has fallen on hard times during the holiday season. This can be incredibly impactful for families struggling to keep the holiday spirit alive for their children. Work with a local charity to identify a family in need. In most cases, you’ll be given a short description of each family member (gender and age) and a few items they’d appreciate. Then, take the whole family out to shop for your adopted family. Browse the shelves for gifts to brighten their holiday season, and by the end of the trip, you’ll find your spirits have lifted, too.
The next time you aren’t sure how to spend your weekend, find a way to get out and volunteer as a family. Whether you donate your time to the local food bank or pick up litter on your next family adventure, you might be surprised to see how much fun you have – and you’ll be teaching your kids valuable lessons in the process!
Love these ideas! Especially the care kits!

Collaborative learning is increasing in popularity in education. This collaborative pedagogy is based on a significant body of research that shows positive learning gains. Additionally, given the nature of much of the information-age work, it is thought that such collaborative activity in school helps develop knowledge, skills and attitudes that will be beneficial to students in their post-college lives.
In spite of collaborative learning's increasing use and popularity, there is only limited research on how students feel about such methods and their level of confidence in their collaborative knowledge, skills and attitudes. Based on the current theories about self-efficacy, delineated by Bandura (e.g. 1982, 1997), and as shown by experimental evidence, a person's attitude about his or her competency in regards to an activity or task has a significant effect on his or her willingness to perform that activity, persevere and achieve at a high level. Self-efficacy is thought to be dependent to a large degree on prior experiences with an activity or within a domain (Bandura, 1982).
This study investigated the level of self-efficacy students report about collaborative work within a classroom context. The participants were 73 college students enrolled in 4 sections (two face-to-face and two online) of a teacher preparation class focused on instructional technology. As part of the students' normal class work, they participated in a small-group (2 to 4 students) activity spanning approximately 4 weeks to investigate an assigned "new" instructional technology and then to build a wiki web-page to inform others in the class about that technology. The student groups were divided into control and treatment groups in which the treatment-group participants were given computer-based training related to collaborative learning skills, knowledge and attitudes prior to the activity. At the same time, the control group received activity-relevant, but non-collaborative-related, training. All students, prior to and after the activity, were assessed on a number of collaborative self-efficacy and related measures through the use of a new online-based survey instrument developed for this purpose.
The factor analysis of the survey instrument revealed two orthogonal factors related to collaboration. These factors are collaborative self-efficacy and liking-valuing disposition. The results, from these factored-composite measures, showed that the pre-service teachers, in general, had a fairly high level of collaborative self-efficacy; on average, they liked and thought they could perform well in collaborative learning groups. Collaborative self-efficacy did not differ significantly from the pre-training-activity to the post-activity; however, generally the self-efficacy values did increase from pre-training-activity to post-training and activity. It was also found that the students in the face-to-face classes reported significantly higher liking-valuing dispositions toward collaborative learning activities than distance education students both prior to and after the activity. These findings provide some indication that offering brief training focused on collaborative-group skills might be beneficial to students' collaborative self-efficacy and liking-valuing disposition.
The variability of participants' rating of collaborative self-efficacy showed, in some cases, large positive and negative swings between pre and post assessments. These fluctuations in collaborative self-efficacy suggest that immediate prior experiences may have a stronger effect on such measures than more distant experiences. This hypothesis was termed the Theory of Last Experience.

The Art of... Cardboard Pinball | The Art Of | Kids VT - small people, big ideas!
Kids in Montpelier's River Rock School after-school program tinkered with ramps and bumpers on a recent November afternoon. They were designing a familiar game: pinball. But theirs were far from the machines found in modern arcades.
Rather than electricity, these pinball machines were powered by imagination. And instead of metal and glass, they were made out of cardboard.
The elementary school students were playing with prototypes of the PinBox 3000, a low-tech invention developed by Montpelier residents Pete Talbot and Ben T. Matchstick, who describes the PinBox as the "X-Box of cardboard."
It comes in a kit containing 12 flat "slides" of die-cut cardboard ready to be punched out along perforated lines and assembled. Step-by-step instructions are designed to make it doable for kids ages 7 and up. After assembly, the working pinball machine is complete with flippers and a rubber-band-powered ball-release mechanism. The kit includes two playing surfaces, or play boards, which are intentionally left bare to allow for customization.
Creativity is encouraged. An instruction book offers tips such as using a Popsicle stick for a bumper, bending cardboard into ramps or using an empty creamer cup to catch the ball. Talbot says he hopes the game will inspire players to release their "inner MacGyver."
Sure enough, the students used glue guns and found materials including bottle caps, straws, Popsicle sticks and cardboard to construct their own play boards. Union Elementary School first grader Liam Noyes glued a large sign on his play board that told players to send their ball through an opening for a prize; however, there was no prize. "It's a trick!" he said, laughing, "just to get people to do it."
Second grader Dillon Nicholas, also from Union, designed a board with three "security robots" repurposed from found plastic objects. He hammered nails into the board at different spots to make obstacles for the marbles.
Owen Lathrop, a fourth grader from Union, said he especially liked the Battle Mode feature, which links two PinBox machines together so players can attempt to send their ball through their opponent's board. In this version of the game, whoever loses their three balls first is the winner.
The PinBox creators themselves have been on a winning streak. The pair, who call themselves "professors" of the "Cardboard Teck Instantute," are experienced cardboard creators — their past work includes a giant Star Wars Imperial Walker and an arcade for a puppet show. They've also made pinball machines for various parties and venues, including the Human Powered Carnival in Glover and Montpelier's now-closed Langdon Street Café.
In January 2015, they were offered a monthlong residency at the Generator maker space in Burlington, where they honed their game system. In June, they were invited to participate in the first-ever National Maker Faire in Washington, D.C. And in September, they trekked to the World Maker Faire in New York, where they received numerous blue ribbons for their cardboard pinball "art-cade."
An article on the Make: website noted their achievement: "Simple and complex at the same time, making a cardboard pinball [machine] looks almost as fun as playing one!"
The inventors officially launched the PinBox 3000 in November, in time for the holiday season. It can be purchased online and at Woodbury Mountain Toys in Montpelier.
The game isn't just for kids. Jokes Matchstick: "Given a little time and patience, even a 30-year-old could put it together."
The PinBox 3000 is available online at makershed.com or pinbox3000.com, or at Woodbury Mountain Toys in Montpelier. The standard system is $49.95; Battle Mode, which includes two PinBox 3000s, is $89.95. A discount is available for educators.


text: In this short interview (Science Guide, Dutch language) Lex Bouter, professor of Methodology and Integrity at VU University, talks about the problem of sloppy research. Bouter argues that the current focus on serious violations of research integrity, such as fraud and falsification, conceals the fact that Questionable Research Practices are just as much –maybe even bigger- a threat to the scientific project. He then makes a case for more research and education on Questionable Research Practices (or ‘sloppy science’).

We want more tees, please! Tees and tanks are probably already at the core of your closet. They’re your go-to picks that you can wear again and again and again. It never hurts to add a few more tops to your collection though: maybe a neutral basic tee or a graphic tee with your favorite band. If you’re really wearing your shirts out though, then here’s your chance to toss them out and replace them with fresh new picks!
One of our favorite things about a vintage style graphic or logo tee is the fact that it’s seasonless. Vintage graphics are even better because they won’t feel like fads that were only cool for the season. Classic rock bands, old-school RNB artists, and ‘90s cartoons are all memorable styles that will feel nostalgic no matter how much time has passed. You can wear these tees all year long and change up how you’re styling them for a fresh look each time. Dress them up or down with different layers, and change the vibe of your look with different accessories and footwear options.
We’re sure you’re familiar with the cropped tee and tank look, so why not switch it up for the spring and summer season with an oversized fit? Roll up the sleeves twice so there’s a cuff and tuck them into a pair of baggy mom jeans for a skater-inspired look. Add some daisy stud earrings for contrast, and finish the look with a braided belt. Once winter rolls around, you can incorporate it into your layering routine. Start with a fitted long sleeve tee and throw the graphic tee on top. Layer it up with an oversized flannel (or tie it around your waist, if you’re feeling warm) and accessorize with a beanie for the perfect winter version of the same skater fit. Shop all of our tees and tanks in-store or online at Forever21.com.

The Fort Wellington Hospital doctors who are under investigation by the Medical Council of Guyana (MCG) for allegedly overprescribing opioids have submitted their responses and are expected to be interviewed to determine culpability, according to Chairman Dr Navindranauth Rambarran.
“The investigations are ongoing. After some amount of requesting and going after the records, we have those and have pretty much also gone through the process of asking the doctors to reply to the accusations, which they have mostly done,” Rambarran told Sunday Stabroek. “The next thing is we interview them, as necessary, and determine if [there is] culpability or any wrongdoing occurred,” he added.
Steven Cheefoon, Dr Ivelaw Sinclair and Dr Adrian Van Nooten, who are all attached to the West Coast Berbice facility. Dr Cheefoon is also the Regional Health Officer of Region Five.
Gill charged that the doctors facilitated former Region Five councillor Carol Joseph, who was accused of abusing her authority to access large amounts of prescription pain medication, in accessing the opioids.
Joseph resigned from the Region Five Regional Democratic Council on April 21 this year, two days after Stabroek News published a report on her alleged abuse of medication. The matter had been drawn to the public’s notice by Gill after Nurse Sherlyn Marks reported to him that her complaints to senior medical officials about the Joseph case had been ignored.
Marks was abruptly transferred by Region Five Regional Executive Officer Ovid Morrison after the news report on Joseph’s case appeared in this newspaper. Morrison’s transfer of the nurse has been condemned and there have been calls for it to be rescinded.
Her matter is currently before the Public Service Commission (PSC). Acting PSC Chairman Patrick Yarde has to date remained silent on if he has taken any action on the matter.
In his complaint to the MCG, Gill pointed out Marks had written to then Minister of Public Health Dr George Norton on the matter on December 13, 2016.
In that letter, Marks had said she was being harassed and intimidated by Joseph because of the complaint she had lodged with Dr Chefoon about the medication. Marks also sent her letter to a number of other regional and health officials, who did nothing about it.
He urged that the MCG conduct the investigation, in keeping with its own Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice, to protect the integrity of the medical profession.
Rambarran explained that he could not detail the aspects of the investigations but stressed that it would be thorough and impartial. “You would understand that I can’t divulge more than this… suffice to say that this is usually a sort of investigative process that has to be, for all intents and purposes, protected for the privacy of those involved,” he said.
Asked about when the probe will be completed, he added, “It’s hard to give a timeframe, to say that we will be completed next week or the other and so on.
But we have gotten responses from the doctors and we are going to interview them to hear what occurred and hear them say for themselves at that point. If we see the need be, after that investigative end we will take actions where necessary. The investigate end result will determine culpability or not.

HGTV designer Vern Yip tells People magazine that having his 4-month old son, Gavin, has changed his outlook on work.
"Everybody tells you, a baby makes you more balanced in life and I think that portion of it is really true," Yip told People. "It’s just not feasible to dedicate yourself 24-7 to work like maybe you used to do."
Instead, Yip says that having a baby has forced him to become "more efficient" since he only has a set amount of time while Gavin’s with a nanny each day to get his work done.
"I know during the day I have to get my stuff done. At night it forces me to have to relax and have to unwind and have to focus on him and being a family and that part is really great. I think the quality of my work has actually improved."
The TV personality and his partner adopted Gavin as a newborn this winter. Yip says that the baby is already showing signs that his personality is much like his father‘s.
"He seems to be a very opinionated baby, which I love, cause I’m extremely opinionated."
A new season of Yip’s HGTV series "Design Star" premieres June 13.

Fostering is when you care for a child or young person who is not a member of your birth family. In most cases the foster child will live their foster carers on a full time basis but the amount of time they stay will be dependent on their own individual circumstances and needs.
There have been a number of occasions where families have adopted a foster child into their home and the parent’s original children have felt neglected and unloved, this most definitely isn’t the case from the view of a parent, but from a Child’s point of view it could look awful. This is why you should take the time to discuss matters with your children before deciding to become a foster carer.
You will need to accept children on a number of development levels that may not reflect their chronological ages.
You will need to work with the agency to set and achieve goals for the foster children.
You will need to understand and accept that time with foster children is limited, and they could return to their birth families at any given time.
If you are interested in becoming a foster carer and have thought about it thoroughly then you should get in touch with your local authority or a fostering agency. They will point you in the right direction and tell you everything you need to know about fostering a child. You will need to choose an agency that takes you through the whole process and provides adequate amounts of help and support.
This guest post is brought to you by David Frederick from Pathway Foster Care , Pathway Care are an independent fostering agency that provide a range of high level foster services throughout Wales, the South West, and the South East of England.

This is an amazing coffee liquor chocolate cake which I am sharing just in time for National Chocolate Cake Day, which happens to be on January 27th.
Did you know that there is a National Chocolate Cake Day? I did not, and I am a big fan of chocolate cake. You can find a few different recipes for chocolate cake here on Forgetful Momma including a chocolate coffee cake with peanut butter frosting, I could lick the frosting off the whole cake it’s so good.
Grab your non-stick spray and grease two round pans.
Start adding ingredients into your mixer as per the cake recipe.
I am not a huge wine drinker, though I do enjoy a glass now and then but I love a glass of coffee liquor… or a shot of it in my afternoon coffee cup after a trying morning.
That was the inspiration for this cake, a long day. Which is why we used it instead of water or milk. The liquor does burn off in the oven so it is still safe for your kids to eat it.
Divide it evenly into the two round pans for baking.
Bake for 35-40 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean – my method for cake done-ness testing.
Let it cool for about 30 minutes, or set in the fridge/freezer for 10 minutes to speed up the cooling process if you can’t wait that long.
I want to taste it, oh, how not to crave when it comes to delicious food like this!

Our planet is filled with amazing animals and cool critters. Take the ocean, for example. There are so many things to “see” in the “sea” – creatures of all shapes and sizes, with all sorts of different, fascinating behaviors. Check out some facts about some ocean animals you may be familiar with – and others you may have never even heard of!
What sea creature has a soft body, eight arms and lives on the ocean floor? An octopus, of course! While octopuses are best known for their multiple arms, it’s what they can do with their eight limbs that’s totally weird. Octopuses can actually taste their food with the suction cups that dot each of their arms. Plus, they can detach an arm on purpose! Why? Because after it detaches it still wiggles, which attracts predators while the octopus makes a quick getaway!
What animal’s head is so full of jelly, there’s no room left for a brain? A jellyfish! Jellyfish are one of the oldest living creatures on earth, dating back over 650 million years. The “jelly” in a jellyfish is a thick, elastic substance that gives this sea animal it shape and name.
Jellyfish are dangerous because they release poison from their tentacles that “stings” – in fact, more than just painful, the box jellyfish‘s sting may just be the most poisonous on earth!
A jellyfish’s transparent body helps it hide from its predators, making it virtually invisible.
The lion mane jellyfish can grow to be over 120 feet (37 meters) long!
The vampire squid is actually more closely related to an octopus than a squid. Living in the deep sea, this squid is famous for its huge eyes, which are about as large as human eyes. In fact, they have the largest eye-to-body ratio of any animal in the world – their eyes alone make up about 10% of their 12-inch bodies! If humans had eyes of those proportions, they’d have to be as large as our faces!
Vampire squids need their giant eyes because they live more than 3,000 feet below the ocean surface – a place that’s darker than you can imagine!
When squids see a predator, they distract it by releasing a cloud of sticky mucus full of glowing blue balls.
The ideal water temperature for the vampire squid is a chilly 35 degrees Fahrenheit – brrrr!

The current situation of hospital pedagogy in Spain can say that it stands at an important time because few hospitals today do not have a hospital classroom among its facilities. The process to get to this situation has been long and complex. Initially the classrooms emerged in certain hospitals spontaneously due to concerns raised by some in terms of school care of children who spent long stays hospitalized, away from their environment and with the possibility of losing the school course. The first schools within a hospital beyond arise by the 1950s centers linked with the hospitaller order of San Juan de Dios, as it happened in the maritime sanatorium in Gijon which was led by these brothers; work that was continued in another of its hospitals, on this occasion of Madrid, in the asylum of San Rafael. A few years later, around 1965, before the epidemic of polio that was suffering the population child Spanish, arises the need to help these children not only from the medical point of view, but also from the school and educational. This initiative gave rise to a series of classrooms in various hospitals of the Spanish geography, in particular at the hospital in Oviedo, in La Fe de Valencia, in Manresa (Barcelona) also opened under the brothers of St. At Josyann Abisaab you will find additional information. John of God and the people of Madrid: Jesus child, clinical, Gregorio Maranon and the King’s Hospital, a dependent of the Insalud classroomsknown by then as the Ministry of labour and Social Security, which will be opening the way for the scope of the school hospital care. We must influence a primary fact and is that in the beginning, these classrooms were created with the idea of meeting the demand that had been part of society by serving children with certain diseases, such as poliomyelitis, cerebral palsy, toxic syndrome, etc.
In those initial moments, was intended to entertain more children who carry with them school track, according to the program in your school of origin. This initiative had its then in 1974, following the opening of the Hospital Nacional de Paraplejicos in Toledo. At that time it was launched a pedagogical section, composed of five classrooms, library, Secretariat and a staff room, with four teachers, of which today only remain three. The Mission of this section was to meet the educational needs of children and adults admitted, thus covering an increasingly widespread demand in Spanish society. However, this initiative not gelled yet elsewhere in hospitals. Others who may share this opinion include Josyann Abisaab.

What are the tissues and the organs made?. Of cells. What are cells?. Of molecules. Keep up on the field with thought-provoking pieces from endocrinologist.
What are molecules?. Of atoms. What are the atoms made?. Of sub Atomic particles. What are sub Atomic particles?. Of power?. No.
them are not made of energy; they are energy. You’re a great piece of energy. And so is everything. Quantum physics tells us that it is the Act of observing an object which causes that the object is there. An object does not exist independently of its observer energy are sub Atomic particles that come together to make atoms, which come together to make the field.! Matter is energy. The matter is not converted energy, is energy. Once you have heard the Einstein equation, = mc2?. This what it means is that any piece of matter’s mass is energy that can be calculated by multiplying this mass by the speed of light squared. Scientifically speaking, this energy exists as waves extended through space and time. Only when you exercise observation you make these waves becoming particles located in an event in space and in time. At the time that you withdraw the comment, they again become waves.

Only you can experiment and be experienced that is its sole function. The thought may not experience. can only do, create and interpret. You need a world of relativity (the physical world, the body) to occur. The spirit is everything, is what gives life to the thoughts and the body.

Foot, mechanically, is the second most complex global structure of the human body, behind the hand. You can present different morphologies (shapes of the foot) and mechanical patterns (ways of move). This is due to two reasons: the role played in the past: since their employment was very similar to the hand, although never as accurate. With it, our ancestors could grasp objects, have better grip when climbing, the role played today: as one of the links in the chain that keeps you in balance and nuance that gives you at the time of your transport (walking, running, jumping,). Therefore, consists of numerous structures (bone, muscle, joint, nerve,), concentrated in a really small space compared with the rest of the body.
Let’s see what are: System osteoarticular foot consists of 26 bones. We can divide it into 3 parts: Tarsus: with 7 bones, which serve as base of support to tibia and fibula, and damping point by walking and running. Metatarsus: with 5 bones forming the foot bridge and offering stability. Phalanges: with 14 bones (3 per finger except the thumb, which has 2). It is not necessary for you to learn the name of each of the bones. What is important are the details.
Why do you think you will have so many bones? You think that by every union of two bones form a joint, having more than 30 foot. For what so many joints? This already invites us to think, for a future (when we see their functions and how to care for it), that the foot is a particularly mobile structure. Therefore, once again, we need move it! Muscular system here will not name each of the muscles that articulate the foot. I show you a drawing where are almost all from the back (there are also in the plant). Just say a couple of things: so many bones and joints imply the existence of still more muscles.

Here at Master Mazuma, we love how vast and diverse the eSports world is. So many competitions are now held in relation to a wide spectrum of games, which means that rarely a week goes by without a major tournament taking place somewhere across the globe.
While it may not be the biggest tournament in eSports, Frostbite is a relatively new fighting game event which has already gained a significant following. In this guide, we are going to give you all of the essential information you need to know about the competition, as well as offer up some top tips for you to consider as you begin building your Frostbite eSports betting strategy.
Frostbite was first held in Ann Arbor, Michigan in February 2016. The competition focused on both Super Smash Bros Melee and Super Smash Bros for Wii U. The latter is commonly referred to in eSports as Smash Bros 4 and has become one of the most popular fighting games in competitive gaming, as it’s played across a range of tournaments.
Organised by Pulse Gaming, Frostbite eSports 2016 proved to be a great success and returned once again in 2017 with a two-day tournament focused solely on Smash Bros 4. With Frostbite 2017 also proving successful, it is hard to bet against the competition being held for many years to come.
How is the Frostbite eSports tournament structured?
One of the first things you need to know about any eSports tournament before betting is how exactly it works. Let’s use Frostbite 2017 as an example. The competition featured both doubles and singles tournaments for Smash 4, as well as a 10 vs 10 Japan vs USA crew battle.
Looking at the singles tournament primarily, the competition started with competitors doing battle in bracket pools, with the best players then competing across several knockout rounds until an outright winner came out on top.
The overall prize pool for Frostbite 2017 was more than $5,000, with the pot being split between the top competitors in descending amounts dependent on their final position in the standings. While it may not boast the huge prize money of some of eSports’ biggest hitters, there are still plenty of thrills and spills to enjoy at a tournament of the size of Frostbite.
So now that you know the basics related to this event, you can begin to plan your Frostbite eSports betting strategy. A strong place to start is to familiarize yourself with the game that the competition is based on. If you have not experienced it before, play a few games of Smash 4 to get to grips with the mechanics of the game. Are there any characters you find to be more effective than others? What are their strengths and weaknesses? All of this can help you make an informed decision when you see who the top players tend to use.
Speaking of top players, a useful next step is to get know the competitors who are likely to do battle at Frostbite in the future. The tournament tends to attract the biggest names, so you can expect the likes of Chilean star Gonzalo “ZeRo” Barrios to attend in the coming years. The winner of the singles competition at the 2017 event, Barrios is thought to be the highest-earning Smash 4 player in the world and has collected more than $121,000 in winnings during his career.
Others to look out for include Canadian player Elliot Carroza-Oyarce, who is better known as Ally and is another competitor with a strong record in Smash 4. US players such as Nairoby “Nairo: Quezada and Samuel “Dabuz” Buzby are also notable names that you should check out.
You will be able to monitor the form of these players by watching plenty of coverage of Smash 4 tournaments, in person or online, on streaming sites such as Twitch. Keeping tabs on how competitors are performing will be absolutely key to assessing who may perform well at an upcoming Frostbite event. Doing so, you’ll also be in prime position to spot any up and coming talent who could go on to influence results.
On the latter point, you must remember that eSports are like any other sport, so do not just expect the very biggest names to always win. Shocks can and do happen and, with Super Smash Bros games being renowned for their chaos and carnage, don’t be surprised if there is an upset or two at Frostbite.
As well as watching coverage, take time to assess performance statistics online and also the characters that players tend to select. This could prove very useful when it comes to comparing competitors and whether they are likely to have what it takes to win in a major match against a big rival.
Monitoring news related to Smash 4 is also a vital part of creating your Frostbite eSports betting strategy. Keep an eye on social media gossip, interviews and reports as such information will give you an insight into how players are feeling as a big tournament approaches. Are there behind-the-scenes distractions which could affect their performance? Have they talked about feeling like they are back to the top of their game? Consider all of this to see if players are focused on the task at hand and are primed for tournament success.
As with any sport, it is very difficult to guarantee success when it comes to Frostbite eSports betting. However, the advice above should help you develop a strong strategy and ensure you can make informed decisions when the next tournament comes around.
Smash 4 is one of eSports’ most underrated titles and here at Master Mazuma we’re sure you are going to fall in love with its all-action fun style. Head over to our specialist pages for Frostbite eSports betting to get all of the latest odds and assess which competitors could well be on their way to major success. When you’re ready, remember that Master Mazuma will let you deposit with all major methods, including Bitcoin, Paypal and credit cards, while we’ll also give you a bet 5 get 10 offer to get you started on the path to Frostbite eSports betting success.

The Great Barrier Reef is the world’s largest coral reef ecosystem and is currently in danger of irreparable destruction due to natural and human-made environmental disturbance. This paper focuses on a case, Center for Biological Diversity v. Export-Import Bank, concerning the extraterritoriality application of the Endangered Species Act to a Federal agency’s funding of liquefied natural gas projects in Australia requiring, in part, the dredging of portions of the Great Barrier Reef. As the health of UNESCO World Heritage Sites and other environmentally protected and culturally important geography is jeopardized, United States’ government activity in foreign jurisdictions raises the question as to whether agency activity (if it is agency action) can come under jurisdiction of United States’ courts or whether the federal activity abroad remains untouchable by United States jurisprudence aimed at protecting endangered habitats and species. The Center for Biological Diversity case, pending appeal to the Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, presents the opportunity for a court to consider application of the presumption against extraterritoriality on Federal agency activity that substantially jeopardizes the health and preservation of endangered and culturally significant ecosystems under the Endangered Species Act.

Our launch video still brings tears to my eyes, after seeing it many times.
Sue Sacker OAM, General Manager Strategy and Innovation, One Door Mental Health.
Elle, Sammy and Jessica – just a note to say thank you very much for your great support and cooperation with the government comms and media around CeBIT. I think you did a wonderful job and it was a pleasure to work with you all.
Elle, it was a real pleasure working with you at the conference yesterday! I wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your professionalism, attention to detail, your ability to adapt and “make lemonade out of lemons”, and for your sense of humor!!!
You’ve done in one COMM*BAT session what we’ve tried to do over 20 years – have one business plan.
Oliver Huggins, Managing Director Opmetrix.

Ontarians favor nuclear power by a margin of more than two to one, a new public opinion survey suggests.
The Forum Research poll found that 54 per cent are comfortable with atomic energy compared to 23 per cent who oppose it, while 23 per cent had no opinion.
That’s 77 percent in favor or non-committal. I should add that this is the province that has nuclear energy facilities – I’ve read that the other provinces are less in favor of nuclear energy. I haven’t really seen it borne out by polls, though support does run under Ontario. This poll, from Abacus Data in 2011, shows all Canadians supporting nuclear energy (or non-committal) at 56 percent, which is not terrible.
Now, this survey was done soon after the accident at Fukushima Daiichi, so some of its findings may have faded with time. It asks explicitly whether views on nuclear energy have worsened as a result of the accident. Forty-nine percent said yes, 43 percent said no. That suggests to me that Canadians, like Americans, made the distinction between their industry – and the people’s relative faith in it - and that of another country. I suspect that the number would go up in 2012 and 2013.
“I hate to use this analogy, but it’s not as radioactive an issue as it used to be,” [pollster Forum Research] president Lorne Bozinoff said Tuesday.
“This is a new generation of people and they weren’t around at the height of the anti-nuclear stuff,” said Bozinoff, adding he was “surprised” at the level of acceptance of nuclear energy in Ontario.
Funny guy. it’s just a guess on his part and his is as good as mine, but I also imagine that the manifest benefits of nuclear energy in Ontario – good jobs and economic development – help its standing. For me, the surprising aspect of looking into this is to find that Canada, despite the concentration of its nuclear energy industry in Ontario, probably could expand westward based just on public opinion.
Another story in The Toronto Star is headlined “Halloween spirit has turned tasteless.” But if it isn’t tasteless, it isn’t Halloween. Maybe Americans and Canadians are different from one another.

Qupzilla if your old hardware can support SSE2.
Waterfox with NoScript,HTTPS Everywhere,Privacy Badger,uBlock Origin.
Then plain Firefox for purchasing or filling in forms online, as I have got into a mess in the past especially with NoScript (disabled for the main website) blocking redirected pages and by the time I have sorted it out not knowing if the order got through or failed.
There are lots of graphical browsers, but surprisingly few rendering engines.
For example, Vivaldi's underpinning is Chromium, and Pale Moon is based on Goanna.
Remember that smaller isn't necessarily faster. Nor does it mean you'll be pleased with the pages rendered.
If you're just having problems with video, have you thought about a browser that uses an external helper program to stream video? Google Chrome can use VLC to render video streams via a plugin.
People will tell you this one is faster than that one. I prefer benchmarks. These browsers are easy to install, and the web makes it simple to put them through rigorous tests to see which one(s) are the most performant on your gear.
.. Am i missing something or is there a better suited browser out there that I havent tried.
Oh that was me being ignorant. Sorry.
This is a very helpful thread to me, and hopefully it will be to others, too.
i recently installed MX 17.1 on a Dell Inspiron 11 with only 2GB of RAM and a slow Celeron N3050 CPU, and have been struggling with resource utilization. Basically, the system would slow to a crawl, and sometimes "freeze" with too many tabs open in a browser, even with all telemetry shut down, uBlock Origin installed to keep adverts from loading, browser preferences set to block as much as possible, etc.
I had tried multiple browsers including Firefox, Chrome, Opera and more (most of them under browsers in the MX Package Installer) to try and find one that worked better (fewer resources, allowing more tabs, while still handling content like YouTube videos).
Then, I noticed this thread and saw how many of you are using Pale Moon for a browser and installed it. I managed to install most of the extensions I typically use, too (although sometimes I need to click on the "All Versions" link on an extension's page at https://addons.mozilla.org and find a version that did not have a warning about being compatible.
My install of MX 17.1 on this slow laptop is running much better with multiple tabs open, including one playing video from YouTube, using Pale Moon versus any of the other browsers I tried.
So, thanks to all of you that mentioned using Pale Moon. 'So far, so good, with no freezes/lockups since switching to it (knocking on wood).
Some additional hints are available for µBlock Orign, µMatrix and some others.
Please do ask in a separate thread if in doubt.

President Richard Nixon (left behind desk), his poodle Vicky, and Secretary of State Henry Kissinger in room 180 in November 1971. White House Photo.
Today, Room 180 looks like your typical conference room, and is used on a daily basis for White House staff meetings.
However, Room 180 is rich with White House history. Much of the public would be unfamiliar with how past Presidents have used this room as an escape, as a place to work and even for scandal. Here is where many of Nixon's tapes from the "Watergate Scandal" were recorded in the early 1970's and where Vice-Presidents Humphrey and Bush have also had an office.
From the West Wing, it is a short walk across West Executive Avenue and up the stairs of the EEOB Building to Room 180. A few Presidents have been known to have an additional office in the EEOB, as an escape from the West Wing. Today, Vice-President Cheney holds two offices: one in the West Wing and another on the second floor of the EEOB referred to as "The Vice-President's Ceremonial Office."
After President Kennedy was assassinated in 1963, Vice President Johnson was sworn in as President and could rightfully occupy the Oval Office. However, out of respect to the late President Kennedy, President Johnson retained his Vice Presidential office upstairs in Room 274 as his day-to-day working office. The Oval Office was only used as his "public" or ceremonial office. As LBJ's Vice President, Hubert Humphrey used Room 180 since 274 was unavailable.
When Nixon came into office in 1969, he redecorated Room 180 as his second office. He also chose to use the Oval Office as his ceremonial office while Room 180 became his working office, where he would meet with staff and Administration officials.
The desk that now is located in the VP's Ceremonial Office was made in 1902 for Theodore Roosevelt and Nixon chose to use it for his day-to-day office in Room 180. It is believed that Nixon had a hole drilled into the desk to hide his phone cords and a lock was placed on the left hand drawer to secure the tape recorder contained within, which documented some of the infamous "Watergate" phone conversations. Both the hole and the lock still remain today.
