Because I’m an adult and can do what I want, a sprinkle cake seemed like the perfect way to celebrate turning 28. It was my birthday yesterday and I wanted SPRINKLES!
Originally my thought was that I would have a quiet birthday celebration at home with Paul and Molly, which in a way I did, BUT! On the weekend something wonderful and amazing happened. My best friend came to visit on Friday to celebrate with me and then totally kidnapped me on Saturday morning to an unknown (to me) destination.
TO SLEEP IN A YURT!! As in, something I’ve always wanted to do! It’s on my list of 30 things that I want to do before I turn 30.
…oops, I fell asleep…and then woke up..
I died. My friends are the best.
Yurting was amazing. We had a nice and short 4km hike in, had a lovely wood stove inside our hut, ate lots of food, got away from humans and electricity and had campfire s’mores!
Being 28 is supposed to be the best year in your twenties (says Buzzfeed) and I’m excited to see what this next year has to offer. It will have cake, obviously. As I said before, my plan was to just eat this cake for my birthday!
You’re with me, right? Sprinkle cakes just seem special on their own!
Thanks to Molly, this cake was possible. This girl tested and tested and tested to get the ultimate funfetti cake base which is absolutely perfect and I barely changed anything! I used pastel coloured quins for the sprinkles because of how neat they look and then topped the cake off with my own American buttercream. I love the way a gritty buttercream tastes on a white cake – these two together made the ultimate birthday dessert!!
I hope you enjoy this layered goddess as much as I did! Seriously. It’s my favourite!
Preheat oven to 350° F. Spray a quarter sheet pan (large baking sheet) with baking spray. Line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
With an electric mixer or in the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the butter and sugar until fluffy. Add the egg whites, one at a time, mixing well after each one. Mix in the vanilla and oil.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the cake flour, baking powder, and salt. With your mixer running on low, add this to the butter mixture in three additions, alternating with the milk.
Once you have a smooth batter, fold in the pastel coloured quins with a rubber spatula. Spread the batter in the prepared quarter sheet pan.
Bake for about 25 minutes, until the cake is puffed and the center is no longer jiggly (the cake should bounce back when lightly poked with your finger.) Transfer to a wire cooling rack and let cool completely.
With an electric mixer or in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, prepare the buttercream. Beat the butter on medium speed until smooth. Turn the mixer to low and gradually add in the sugar, 1 cup at a time, mixing until incorporated. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and add in the vanilla, heavy cream and salt. Mix on medium until smooth and creamy. At this point you can check the firmness of the buttercream to get it how you would like - if it’s too firm, add in some more cream (1 teaspoon at a time) and if it’s not firm enough add in more powdered sugar (1 tablespoon at a time). Add the pastel coloured quins (or jimmies) and mix until they are evenly spread.
To assemble the cake, use a 6-inch cake ring to cut out 3 circles from the cake**.
Place 1 cake layer on your cake stand or serving plate. Evenly cover the top with frosting. Top with 2nd layer and evenly cover the top with frosting. Top with 3rd layer and top with frosting. Lightly spread the frosting around the sides of the cake (for a dirty icing) and then pop the entire cake in the freezer for 10 minutes. Continue frosting the cake along the sides and top until it is completely covered and smooth. Decorate top of cake with extra pastel coloured quins, if desired.
Recipe adapted from Molly on Food52.
*Do NOT use sprinkles that will dye your batter (like nonpareils, which are the little balls). Rainbow jimmies or pastel coloured quins are fine.
**Save the rest of the cake to enjoy on its own. I like to cut it into squares and spread with any remaining frosting for lunches during the week.
This buttercream used in this recipe will begin to dry out and develop a crust over time. If not using immediately, briefly re-mix before use.
Happy birthday, Katrina! Your birthday surprise sounded amazing! You’ll have to share photos of the yurt!
And I LOVE Molly’s funfetti recipe. It’s the best!
Happy Birthday!! (from a fellow december baby 😉 ) Camping in a yurt sounds like such a fun way to celebrate! And goodness, this cake takes me back, in all the best ways. Love those quins you used instead of the usual sprinkles.
Yay!! Happy December baby birthday! I hope you get to have your favorite cake too!
Happy birthday!! It sounds like you have some awesome friends 🙂 And this cake looks like the perfect way to celebrate!
Aww thank you for your lovely comment!! Sending hugs!
Happy Birthday, Katrina!! (A little late, sorry … still a little slow here 😉 Hope you had a wonderful day and that cake is just totally awesome!!
I have to say, I had no idea what YURTING was before this lol. But it does sound like you had the perfect birthday complete with the perfect cake!
This cake sounds amazing! I agree, there is nothing quite like classic Funfetti cake. I hope you have a fantastic 28th year!
You’re so sweet! Thank you!
This cake looks delicious. I love all things cake!!

I think one of the judges really really liked MK's ADITL (if not all)!!!... I'm not sure if he is actually a judge or just the referee standing by...but he was sitting in the middle of the panel!!! When MK was waving and doing her cute little courtseys...he had this big smile on his face!!!...It was a really huge smile!!!
Hey KARIN I saw that too! Did you guys see the lady judge on the panel with a blue jacket laught *i think* when Yagundin fell on his spiral? You can see it in the slow motion right after when he came out of his betsi squat move after the fall. Since Delphi chat is so troublesome for many, I am working at getting a new chatroom for MK's fans !!!
I think it was a "oh man...ouch!!!" expression!!! But that guy had a glowing smile about MK didn't he??? :O) Cardiologist Dr. Googoo...lub dub lub dub!!!...sorry we got carried away and forgot... I edited mine as you can see!!!
Googoo...Was telling you guys that a judge was smiling...a spoiler??? Oopsies if it was!!! Lub dub lub dub lub dub...waiting for ladies' final results!!!
Diane...but it wasn't me!!!...It was Gentle...LOL!!!
yes Karin, I know..I wasn't directing my statement at you really. Anyway, as I just put in my edited post above, saying a judge is smiling implies that Michelle skated well, and that is a spoiler.

As a partner or co-owner (private shareholder) of a business, you've spent years building a valuable financial interest in your company. If you thought about setting up a buy-sell agreement to ensure your surviving family a smooth sale of your business interest than consider life insurance.
In an entity purchased buy-sell agreement, the business itself buys separate life insurance policies on the lives of each of the co-owners. The business usually pays the annual premiums and is the owner and beneficiary of the policies.
The amount of insurance coverage on your life should equal the value of your ownership interest. Then, when you die, there will be enough cash from the policy proceeds to pay your family or estate in full for your share of the business. But, if all that is affordable is insurance coverage for a portion of your interest, you might want to go ahead and fund that amount. Later, the company may be able to increase the amount of insurance or use additional funding methods. In the meantime, the agreement should specify how your family or estate will be paid.
Each year, the premiums on the policies must be paid, or the insurance will lapse. So monitor premium payments carefully. Your buy-sell agreement should include a feature requiring ongoing proof of payment. Also, review the amount of insurance regularly. The insurance coverage may have to be increased periodically to reflect increases in the value of the business. If additional insurance is not possible, another funding method should be established.

It's not just in the Premier League where potential foreign buyers are looking to invest in English football. According to the Stoke Sentinel ,League 1 Port Vale has attracted interest from an American consortium.
It is understood they are among three separate potential buyers who have discussed a price with the chairman, Norman Smurthwaite and are studying the club's finances before making a final offer. However, a fourth interested party is considered unlikely to come up with an acceptable offer.
It is understood the American consortium, who have a background in sport but not soccer, are regarded as a serious contender by Smurthwaite and want to buy both the football club and Vale Park.
However, he has sought to reassure those supporters who are concerned that Vale will no longer own their own ground. They fear the Valiants could eventually suffer like Coventry City, who didn't own their own stadium and moved out to play at Northampton for more than a year after a dispute with the landlords.
Smurthwaite says he will remain owner of Vale Park if necessary, but says the new owners of the football club would have the security of a minimum 25-year lease at Vale Park at a fixed rent.
He said: "If the status changes between the ownership of the club and freehold then it automatically triggers a 25-year lease which I am trying to extend to 30 years with the Football League as we speak.
"That is at a fixed rent which is way below market rent. If a person comes and buys the football club, but doesn't have the means to buy the stadium, they will be given an option of five years to buy the stadium at a fixed price now.
"Ideally a purchaser will buy both but, as I am still going to be coming to the games after I have sold the club, I will make sure I have the most comfortable seat!
"Quite a lot of football clubs have this arrangement. We will never see a Coventry City at Port Vale, not whilst I am involved and have any influence and control.
"I have seen a lot of mistakes that clubs have made, including Coventry City, and I will never allow that to happen here."
Smurthwaite, who has been in charge since 2012, expects to sell the club by the end of the season, but will only sell to a buyer he believes will make a success of running the club.
He added: "There are four parties, of which three are serious contenders. One I wouldn't consider as serious. Out of the three there is a price which I have dictated to all of them and it is non-negotiable. All of them are continuing with the dialogue so they are happy with the price, or as happy as you can be in you are buying an asset.
"I want the club to continue to prosper. The club is in a better place now than when I bought it and I will make sure the next custodian has the facilities and ability to make it even better than when I leave."
The chairman publicly put the club up for sale in December. If he doesn't sell before the end of the season, then he will appoint a chief executive to run it. However, he expects to agree a sale and says he will be happy to advise new owners, having himself been grateful to former chairman Bill Bell for advice three years ago.
Smurthwaite added: "There are parties doing their due-diligence as we speak. In the event that any of them eventually find they haven't got the means or choose not to buy the club, then, as I have said before, I will appoint a CEO.
"There will be no instability in the handover. I am still coming here. When I took day to day control I spent a lot of time with Bill Bell trying to understand Port Vale, its people and its challenges. Sadly, Bill didn't live long enough to give me the full picture but he gave me a flavour for what was coming ahead."

Ahhh the tattoo; either you love them or you hate them. As an artist I’ve always found tattoos to be quite beautiful, or in some cases I find them to show our ugliest and darkest sides in the most beautiful way.
They are often the greatest form of self-expression and in some cases may even console one’s own spirit and mind. Why do people so often get tattoos symbolizing a loved one, a belief, or a significant moment in life? When people brand their bodies with something that noteworthy, it is the highest form of honor that you can give to a person, or a belief, or a moment. Every time you look at it, you feel.
The white calla lily has always been my favorite flower. It has a simple, natural beauty. I read somewhere that is the official death flower of Tibet (not sure if that’s true), and if I've ever pictured a heaven I’ve pictured a field of calla lilies. If I ever had a daughter, I imagined I would name her Lily. When I look at them, they make me tranquilly happy and in some ways represent a lost innocence.
I’ve decided to place the tattoo on the nape of my neck. It will represent a kind of eloquent struggle of embracing the natural beauty of life and perhaps letting go of some things that life didn’t give me. It’s almost a sort of powerful closure if you will, hence the title, “The Powerful Eloquent Tattoo". The arts just have this awesome way of satisfying our emotions; enough said.

LUFKIN, TX (KTRE) - A 40-year-old Chester woman pleaded guilty to state-jail felony theft Thursday in connection to stealing thousands of dollars from a Lufkin doctor's office.
Prosecuting attorney Layne Thompson said Conner received a sentence of five years of probation. On Thursday, Conner, who is now considered a convicted felon, paid $5,000 of the approximately $15,000 worth of restitution she has been ordered to pay.
Conner turned herself into her authorities in July 2010 after a warrant was issued for her arrest.
In a previous East Texas News story, Det. J.B. Smith, a spokesman for the Lufkin Police Department, said police began investigating the case in April 2008. At that time, an office manager accused Conner of falsifying her time sheet by using a password to add time to her hours in the office's computer system.
Smith said the investigation continued in Nov. 2009, when it was believed Conner was taking money from customers that they used to pay doctor's bills.
Police obtained a warrant for Conner's arrest in November 2009. Conner was released from the Angelina County Jail after she posted a bail of $2,000.

REVIEW - High Strangeness - Use a Potion!
There seems to be an abundance of video games seeking funding on Kickstarter these days. Every day a new game is listed with some ambitious developer offering some amazing new game innovation, a spiritual successor or sometimes just a pure passion project. Some of very successful and have raised millions in funding for their projects. Others have faltered and fallen well short. High Strangeness was a success on Kickstarter and made history by doing so – it was the first successfully funded video game, raising just over the $1500 requested. This was back in 2009 with the game meant to be arriving in 2010 – now after 5 years it has finally launched on Steam and on the Wii U eShop. The only question is was it worth the wait?
The game story starts off with main character Boyd chasing after his pet cat. This opening is very similar to cult SNES RPG Secret Of Evermore, a game I feel High Strangeness takes a lot of inspiration from. Chasing his cat then leads onto a series of strange events unfolding that wraps Boyd up in the fate of the world. It’s not long into the game however that it tries to takes the plot very seriously, throwing conspiracy theories and a bit more depth into the back story. At this point the things start to come off the rails a bit, the short length of the game not giving it a chance to really flesh out, leading to a premature bizarre conclusion just as the things start to get interesting.
Despite this the story does have its plus points. Characters are all likeable and charming, each having their own distinct personality. The relationship between Boyd and Abydos provides some great moments in the game, the writing of the game really top notch. The story doesn’t always seem to take itself too seriously with humour well utilised in the game, producing some genuine laugh out loud moments. There are a few cheeky references to older Nintendo games and pop culture thrown in for good measure too.
High Strangeness calls itself a ’12-bit’ game – what it means by this is you have the ability to seamlessly switch between 8-bit and 16-bit on the fly. Each mode offers it’s own gameplay style – 8-bit has graphics reminiscent of the NES era with limited movement and slower enemies while 16-bit plays a lot like some of the classic SNES action RPGs of which it was obviously inspired by with full movement and multiple hit combos. It’s an interesting and well utilised mechanic, with switching necessary for progress through dungeons – water which blocks your path in 16-bit mode will have a hidden walkway in 8-bit mode. Impressively every area in the game is available in both modes, a real testament to the work the developers put into making the game. You will find however that you won’t find yourself experiencing the 8-bit view all that often – 16-bit is generally the more enjoyable way to play, you may find yourself only switching to 8-bit when necessary to progress.
Graphically High Strangeness manages to stand out. 16-bit’s Sprites are well designed and animated fluidly, each character having it’s own distinct look. Environments are attractive, albeit a little bland. Meanwhile in 8-bit everything looks as it should – 8-bit. The look is perfect; the throwback to that era is really charming. Interestingly the game uses watercolour paintings for some of the cut scenes. Whilst initially it looked out of place in the game, especially since the game was already working with two different art styles, the more I saw of them the more I appreciated them. They all were well painted and contained graphical details not found in other areas of the game.
Combat in the game plays out like old classic action RPGs, games like The Legend Of Zelda and (again) Secret Of Evermore a clear inspiration to the developer. It’s an enjoyable experience, the game offering a variety of tools at your disposal from projectile CDs to throw and the ability to summon a hooded enemy to fight for you. All of your abilities can be upgraded by using collectibles dropped by slain foes. It’s a very rewarding upgrade system, each upgrade offering a considerable improvement; you’ll find yourself voluntarily fighting against the same re-spawning enemies to reap the rewards. There’s also a diversity in the enemies you face be it scorpions, bats or skeletons that whilst not imaginative in design work well in gameplay with their varying attack styles. Boss battles also appear and are a great showpiece to mark the end of a dungeon.
Unfortunately combat can be easily exploited – some of your weapons stun and damage the enemies, almost making them pretty much defenceless. This easily exploitable gameplay takes away most of the challenge of the game, especially when they can be used against most of the game’s bosses. This takes away a lot of the challenge from the game and enemies are a breeze to defeat.
Fortunately the game isn’t all about combat. There are plenty of puzzles in the game, some as simple as moving blocks and others that require the utilisation of all the tools you have on offer. They really break up the dungeon and offer a lot more substance to the gameplay. They are clearly well thought out and well designed by the developer; they provide and extra challenge that takes a bit of thinking to complete.
The soundtrack of High Strangeness is awesome. The chip tune music is utilised perfectly to set the tone in scenes, Dino Lionetti and Rich Vreeland doing an excellent job with their compositions. The quality of it is up there with any SNES era RPG – a true testament to the work and effort that went into its production.
I’d be remiss not to mention the length of the game. Despite the long development time I found myself completing the game in roughly 3 hours. This is frustrating, not just because most action RPGs usually last a lot longer, but because I found myself enjoying the game and wanting to play more of it. With it’s linear path through the game and nothing extra to do post game it’s a real shame it’s such a short experience. Unfortunately some gamers may find that High Strangeness doesn’t offer enough bang for their buck in this respect.
When I started playing High Strangeness I fell in love with it’s art style, gameplay and charm. Characters are likable and the game manages to be genuinely humorous, dungeons are well designed with engrossing puzzles, the 8-bit and 16-bit switching is well utilised and the soundtrack is ridiculously good – the game has so much going for it. Unfortunately it’s held back by easily exploitable combat, a story that seems to go off the rails and a short play time. Despite this I’d still recommend you give High Strangeness a go – it’s a true throwback to the old SNES action RPGs and a clear indication that sometimes Kickstarter really does work.

Revenue, revenue, revenue. For good reason in this economy, all of the sites we’ve talked to so far have wanted to hear ideas for making more of it.
So we’ve been a bit surprised at how few are experimenting with e-commerce, which is frequently held up as a strong potential revenue stream for online news. Sure, we’ve heard from a few sites making good money from t-shirt sales and affiliate programs.
But American publishers should heed the experience of the Telegraph in the UK, which started launching a series of e-commerce efforts in 2008. The 154-year-old newspaper now says that a hefty percentage of its revenues come from online users buying those goods and services directly through the site. That’s a nice figure going onto the P&L as advertising revenues continue to shrivel.
The Telegraph has been quite successful getting readers to pay for access to games or to services that highlight the organization’s databases. The site’s fantasy football and cricket service and CluedUp, a brand aimed at puzzle nuts, have been perhaps most successful. The Telegraph also gets a commission on transactions made with their personal finance and sports betting partners.
Of course, the Telegraph sells merchandise, too, ranging from tulips or a pond vacuum in the garden store, to Panama hats sold in the travel section. Roussel says developing a system that seamlessly matches product to editorial content is still a challenge, but he envisions a day when the e-commerce gardening application will recognize the rose in an article and serve up offers for that rose or something close to it.
Roussel says not all merchandise lines work as well as others, saying the fashion shop, for one, hasn’t broken through as hoped.
Far better, he thinks, for news sites to embrace this updated approach–providing valuable services for a fee–than to erect paywalls around content that in the age of Google is readily available elsewhere (an opinion echoed here today).
“The fundamental value of journalism is that you pull in a wide audience, then you can direct them to a series of high value services that they’ll pay for,” Roussel says.
The American news industry, unfortunately, has it’s head in the sand. They failed to realize the value of their websites when the web was young. They moan the decrease in subscriber and ad revenue without an effort at innovation. Booyah to the Telegraph.
Great article – it’s true, America still has a lot to learn about eCommerce and the power of the Internet. Every year more and more money is spent – in the US – on eCommerce, and it will only continue to grow as the trends grow.
No doubt, though, that the USA is a bit behind Europe. Thanks for the post!

That said, Fox 2 musters a sense of fun that allows it to succeed. Unlike many Disney DTV sequels, it doesn’t just retell the original flick’s story, and in this case, the plot is superior to that of its predecessor. Granted, that’s not hard to do since Fox lacked much of a narrative, but it comes as a pleasant surprise to find a plot that attempts to step out on its own and not just regurgitate elements from the earlier film.
The Fox and the Hound 2 appears in an aspect ratio of approximately 1.78:1 on this Blu-ray Disc. From start to finish, this presentation looked excellent.
The movie came with a pretty good DTS-HD MA 5.1 soundtrack. Across the front channels, the sound presented a fairly broad array. Music displayed nice stereo imaging, and elements meshed together well. A fair amount of effects popped up from the sides and movement flowed cleanly. The surrounds added a surprising amount of material as well. Material often popped up from the back speakers, and the components were accurately placed. The whole package blended together to create a strong little soundscape.
How did the picture and audio of the Blu-ray compare to that of the original DVD? Sound was a wash, with a little more warmth to the Blu-ray but not a lot. However, the visuals made a good-looking movie even more attractive, as sharpness and vivacity were much stronger.
Though the film’s original DVD included a mix of extras, most of these go absent here. In fact, the Blu-ray only provides one movie-specific component: a featurette called Unlikely Friends. It goes for seven minutes, 25 seconds. Most of the content comes from a narrator, but we also get some notes from Professor of Animal Science Gary Wilson. We learn about how different animals get along ala the fox/hound relationship in the movie. It’s a quick but moderately interesting piece.
The disc opens with ads for The Lion King, SpookyBuddies: The Curse of the Howlloween Hound, and Dumbo. These also appear under Sneak Peeks along with clips for Bambi II, Tinker Bell and the Mysterious Winter Woods, Tinker Bell and the Pixie Hollow Games, Jake and the Neverland Pirates and Mars Needs Moms. No trailer for Fox 2 shows up here.
A second disc provides a DVD Copy of Fox 2. In addition to the film itself, this boasts some extras we don’t find on the Blu-ray. A music video for “You Know I Will” by Lucas Grabeel goes for three minutes, 36 seconds. It combines shots of Grabeel in the studio along with movie clips. Actually, it tries to be cute in that it portrays Grabeel in a number of jobs during the production. That’s a minor attempt to create something clever in an otherwise totally forgettable tune and video.
The Making of the Music: The Fox and the Hound 2 runs 10 minutes, seven seconds. It features notes from Grabeel, director Jim Kammerud, music supervisor Kimberly Oliver, Disney Toon Studios Senior VP of Music Matt Walker, composers Marcus Hummon, Joel McNeely, Will Robinson and Gordon Kennedy, musicians Trisha Yearwood, Karen Fairchild and Josh Gracin, and actors Reba McEntire and Jeff Foxworthy. We hear how the filmmakers went to Nashville and found songwriters for the flick. We also get notes about the composition and recording of some tunes as well as the score. Though the show provides a smattering of interesting notes, it remains too superficial to offer much.
Perhaps my enjoyment of The Fox and the Hound 2 stems from my lack of affection for its predecessor, or maybe it’s just a decent little flick. Whatever the case, I think the sequel provides a peppy and innocuous piece of fun. The Blu-ray offers excellent visuals and good audio but lacks substantial supplements. No one will mistake Fox 2 for the best Disney has to offer, but it boasts decent charm.
Note that The Fox and the Hound 2 appears only as part of a two-pack with its 1981 theatrical predecessor. Both appear on the same Blu-ray Disc; the package also tosses in standard DVD versions of the two movies.

Project Santa Claus, an effort that has matched needy children in Douglas County with sponsors since 1989, is in full swing. Director Marilyn Malkmus is looking for volunteers to help wrap and organize the books, mittens, caps and more in the coming week.
About 700 Douglas County children from 290 families benefit from the program each year and on Christmas morning there’s a special warm feeling that comes from being part of this effort, Malkmus said.
“I know the joy the children will have that morning. They will be having a real Christmas,” she said.
Children usually don’t accompany their parents to pick up the gifts because parents want them to believe the gifts came from Santa, but there would be fewer good Christmases in Douglas County without help from businesses, organizations and residents here, Malkmus said.
The effort includes angel trees at several area businesses, a wheel drive that refurbishes donated bikes, trikes and wagons and a winter clothing drive.
Children who have been served through the local Family Support Council, CASA and the Carson Valley Community Food Closet all benefit from the program.
All families must live in Douglas County and are interviewed and approved by staff from the Douglas County and Washoe Tribal social service departments.

“There are 60,000 homeless people in New York”, explained Hollywood movie star Richard Gere, who was in attendance on the closing day of the Glasgow Film Festival to promote his latest film, Time Out of Mind. Based on a script twelve years in development and influenced by the 2010 bestselling memoir Land of Lost Souls: My Life on the Streets, the film shows Gere take on the role of George, a down-on-his-luck homeless man who faces a daily battle of survival on the streets of New York City. Mentally unsound, and seemingly only recently without a home, George is initially found sleeping in the bathtub of an abandoned and run-down apartment. Cold and hungry, he eventually takes refuge at a local Manhattan homeless shelter, where he reluctantly befriends a fellow indigent, who may or not be a figment of George’s imagination. What follows is a journey of self-discovery as George seeks to regain not only a home, but also his own identity. In a deliberate narrative decision, very little is revealed about George’s past self – there are occasional hints of infidelity and alcoholism, in part due to the death of his ex-wife to breast cancer – which allows for a greater level of empathy, rather than judgment, in regards to his current situation.
Gere originally intended to direct the small indie film himself, before enlisting the help of filmmaker Oren Moverman due to the financial and logistical limitations of the project. Shot on location in the neo-realist tradition, Moverman takes a stylistically bold approach to the film’s main theme of loss of identity: at times George is partially obscured within the frame and is often filmed through reflective glass windows – a transparent drifter who struggles to be both seen and heard. Moreover, the filmmaker makes impressive use of long focal lenses to capture Gere from a distance (often from above) so to make him appear small and insignificant within the swarming metropolis. However, the most distinctive feature of Time Out of Mind is undoubtedly its use of ambient cityscape sounds which both offset George’s lack of dialogue and function as an audible representation of his internal instability.
Gere delivers a strong convincing performance as George, tackling both the role and the film’s subject matter with the seriousness it deserves. Talking to a packed auditorium of fans and filmgoers, the actor admitted that although Time Out of Mind was “a tough sell” to distributors, the film was one he felt compelled to make in order to further highlight the perils of homelessness and the “warehousing of a human-beings” within shelters. In addition to the film festival circuit, the film has also been shown to the United States Congress and has been donated to local NGO’s around the world to serve as motivation in the battle against homelessness. Throughout the film, George visits his estranged daughter (played by Jenna Malone) for help, often being turned away with a few extra dollars in his pocket. The film’s climax, however, offers hope of reconciliation between the two – a moment which Gere describes as “a space of possibility”. With Time Out of the Mind, the actor hopes that this sentiment for change can be used to an even greater good when it comes to helping those who currently find themselves without a home.

CRM emerged in the 1990’s as an information technology solution for managing a customer database and today sits at a senior management strategy or executive level to deliver shareholder value to organisations.
But how did a simple customer tracking tool, become so important and how do companies avoid spending millions on CRM without it leading to failure?
Over the past 20 years the definition of CRM has changed significantly. Academic research confirms that hundreds of definitions exist and even marketing guru Kotler’s definition of CRM is different today to what is was ten years ago. Today Kotler (2014) defines CRM as a process of carefully managing detailed information of individual customers and all customer touch points to maximise customer loyalty.
The lack of a clear definition of CRM will result in CRM being fragmented within the organisation and value being difficult to monitor or track.
Successful CRM projects are implemented against the CRM objectives derived from the corporate objectives and support the overall business strategy.
A CRM readiness assessment provides and overview audit which helps management assess the overall position in terms of environmental readiness to progress with CRM implementation and to identify how well developed their organisation is relative to other companies.The CRM change management process involves strategic decisions to be taken which will impact the company resources, time and costs but if the right investment made can have significant return on investment.
Senior level understanding, support and leadership is critical in a complex CRM implementation project as it affects the company cross functionally and re-organises the work flow operation and activities of the business. This requires key skills, but for smaller organisations the CRM systems can grow as the organisation grows as long as the right tool is invested in that allow for scalability.
Various arguments have been put forward for the failure of CRM systems. It is suggested that the main reason for CRM project failure is the lack of strategic planning prior to the implementation of CRM. And according to Norgabr, the failure rate proves how important it is for a business to take the time to investigate CRM systems and to opt for the best fit for the individual business.
7. Metrics for measuring the success of the CRM program.
Then the Journal of Marketing Management (2005) defines CRM into three perspectives.
Payne and Frow’s CRM model (2005, Vol.69. p.169-176) shows CRM’s detailed complexity and holistic nature of creating shareholder value but this model also illustrates the reality of just how much work, energy and resources CRM can consume when done at an organisational level.
The Payne perspective of CRM highlights the interactive set of strategic processes that commences with a review of an organization’s strategy and concludes with an improvement in business results and increased shareholder value.
This model affirms that competitive advantage stems from the creation of value for the customer and for the business and associated co creation activities.
Kale (2004) further supported this view and argued that a critical aspect of CRM involved identifying all the strategic processes that take place between an enterprise and its customers.
Fundamental to this concept of customer value are two key elements of research which include determining how existing and potential customer profitability varies across different customers and customer segments and then determining the economics of customer acquisition and customer retention and opportunities for cross-selling, up-selling, and the building of customer advocacy.
How these elements contribute to increasing customer lifetime value is integral to value creation and the customer retention process represents a significant part of the research for value creation to emerge.
Van Schalkwyk adds that is important to keep in mind that organisational CRM is continuous as it is being impacted real time by global market forces as data and information flows across the world, given globalisation, new knowledge is being created and creativity for innovators emerges informing new trends and spurring innovation. These factors have a direct impact on a company’s existing products and service lines, as this directly influences customer buying patterns and habits. Therefore taking the time to invest in the right CRM system in order to understand and develop customer relationships more effectively is essential for business sustainability into the future. The lack of an effective and up to date CRM system makes businesses ineffective and inefficient as companies become out of touch and irrelevant to their customers ever changing needs and desires.

It is well known for its cuisine, skilled artisans and traditional handicrafts, with over 16 different ethnic groups each with their own unique language and cultures. Experience its vibrant indigenous cultures and colonial architecture while improving your Spanish proficiency, volunteering at local NGOs, and gaining practical experience in clinical settings. This program is ideal for those with little or no Spanish background, who want to develop this vital skill used everyday in today’s healthcare settings and improve cultural competency to better serve growing Mexican immigrant populations in the US and other countries.
During the Spring Break Global Seminar, you arrive on a Saturday and depart the following Sunday; you take 15 hours of intensive beginner Spanish classes focusing on basic grammar, conversation and medical Spanish used in patient histories and physical exams. After language classes, you learn about the social determinants of health through interactions and service-learning with local nonprofit organizations. You may assist with on-site projects including teaching English and computer skills, arts and crafts classes, helping students with homework, or helping in the kitchen. More in-depth projects such as contributing to presentations about basic hygiene or working with staff to improve the educational curriculum may be available.
You also learn from local experts in clinical settings such as community clinics serving low-income populations, and through on-site lectures and reflection meetings and understand the implications of social, economic and cultural factors of the patient, provider, and healthcare system, and come away with increased confidence communicating in Spanish in social and professional settings, as well as a holistic view of healthcare in Oaxaca City and how Mexicans access these services.
Become immersed in Mexican culture and language through Spanish classes, living with a local family in Oaxaca, and cultural/historical activities arranged by the local CFHI team. In the city of Oaxaca, go shopping, explore museums and art galleries, or hangout with locals in the vibrant Zócalo or main plaza. Enjoy a day trip to the Zapotec ruins of Montealbán, a Unesco Heritage Site, and to the village of Arrazola where you will encounter artisans who craft the "alebrijes" that inspired the movie "Coco."
General Government Hospital- This teaching hospital, located in the northern part of the city, receives funding from the government and civil organizations in Oaxaca. It provides primary, secondary and tertiary care at low cost. Rotate alongside Mexican medical students and learn from residents in ob/gyn, pediatrics, surgery, and emergency wards. Shadow them as they conduct morning rounds, general consults, and follow-up treatment.
CFHI participants have free time during some evenings and may choose to organize weekend trips to nearby destinations and take part in cultural activities offered within Oaxaca itself if they have time after the Seminar ends. Within the city, enjoy colorful street markets, delicious cuisine and a lively nightlife. Approximately 6 miles outside of the city is Monte Albán, a pre-Columbian archaeological site dating back to 500 BC. Monte Albán is one of the earliest cities in Mesoamerica and was recognized as a World Heritage Site in 1987 (day trip included).
Oaxaca is also home to the month-long cultural festival known as the Guelaguetza.The event takes place in July and features music, dance, food, art and costumes from Oaxaca’s numerous indigenous groups. Another important cultural event in Oaxaca is Día de Muertos or Day of the Dead. In the days leading up to and following October 31st, locals organize concerts and parades and decorate altars in honor of their ancestors. In Oaxaca, the celebrations are said to be some of the most vibrant in all of Mexico.
Participants should arrive in Oaxaca City, Mexico on the program start date (a Saturday) and will be picked up from the airport by a CFHI representative and taken to their homestay. A welcome orientation will take place the Sunday or Monday after arrival. Please plan to depart on the Sunday after your 1-week Spring Break Global Health Seminar ends.

Definition - What does Variable (Mathematics) mean?
In mathematics, a variable is a quantity that can change. Letters are used to represent these changing, unknown quantities.
3. C2 to represent the speed of light squared.
Variables, unknown quantities, are the opposite of constants, which are known, unchanging amounts.
Variables can be independent or dependent. Dependent and independent variables are commonly used in statistical studies and to control (to some degree) the outcomes of experiments. In the simple equation y = 2x, the letter x can be any real number. The value of y is completely dependent on the value chosen for x, and is always twice as much. Thus, x is the independent variable, and y is the dependent variable.
Variables are also used in computer programming. Typically, variables are assigned a data type, like numerical, alphabetical, image, array or video clips. Variables are also assigned memory locations. The data in the location can change during the execution of the program but the when the variable is encountered in the program, the computer substitutes the information in the correct memory location for the variable.

I have experienced a number of Crossfit Gym’s and I rate Thermal as the best. The real difference is the coaching. The owner, Vinny, is not only extremely knowledgeable, but he also cares about his clients and is vested in their health. It’s a friendly atmosphere that offers something for the beginner as well as the long time athlete.
Whether an experienced athlete or brand new to crossfit you should check out crossfit Thermal! I joined Thermal about 6 months ago and it has been an amazing experience. The coaches are so knowledgeable and give you the individual attention you need to reach your fitness goals. Every class is challenging and fun. The Thermal community is supportive and encourage you to be the best you can be!
Crossfit Thermal is a top notch facility with coaching to match.
Vinny is an amazing coach and really tunes in to the athletes and his/her needs. His passion and knowledge of Crossfit makes class very enjoyable. I am always challenged by each and every WOD.
The growing community is awesome and supportive – it makes you feel like you are a part of a family.
If you are thinking about testing the Crossfit waters or are in the area, Crossfit Thermal is the place to go!
Vinny provides an excellent combination of motivating a person while making the workout fun. I have been going to the gym for years but never had someone instruct me on proper lifting. In a very fun, encouraging, and supporting way Vinny made some positive corrections in my deadlift technique and I instantly could feel the difference. The Crossfit Thermal facilities are top notch.
I had recovered from a car accident in 2005 and now 9 years later am still hesitant to do some movements with moderate to heavy weight when doing back exercises. However, I felt really comfortable receiving instruction from Vinny on proper lifting technique, not pressured to lift at a weight higher than I was comfortable, and challenged in a fun way. After learning proper technique from Vinny I felt more confident in what my body can do. Next time I’ll place more weight on the bar!
The warm-up, instruction of the WOD, and the instruction on the individual activities was the perfect length of time and made me feel ready to exercise. The music at Crossfit Thermal is much better than the gym! Fun, motivating, and charged music kept me going. Even better, I didn’t have to wear any ear buds and a music player that usually gets in the way when exercising. I enjoyed the team effort in completing the WOD. Vinny has very positive and infectious energy that makes exercising fun and physically productive.
Best Crossfit Class I have ever taken!
My husband and I moved to Conshy and we are so excited we found Thermal! We had a great community back in AZ and didn’t think we would be lucky enough to find that again, but we did! Coach Vinny, Coach P, Coach Sarah and Coach KT are so knowledgable and fun to take classes with. There is a huge focus on the movements and being efficient. Programming is excellent! Love this box!

To end violence, we need to invest in the communities most affected by violence and the solutions that we know are effective. Doing that requires changing the way policymakers and the public think, talk, and write about violence. BMSG developed this toolkit to help practitioners, advocates, residents, and others frame violence from a community perspective and harness the power of the media to achieve change.
Twenty years ago, The Woodhull Study on Nursing and the Media found that nurses were cited as sources in only 4% of health news stories. In 2017, researchers from Berkeley Media Studies Group and the George Washington University School of Nursing's Center for Health Policy and Media Engagement replicated the study and found that nurses remain invisible in health news media, despite their increasing levels of education, unique roles, and expertise.
In this guide, developed by BMSG in partnership with the National Sexual Violence Resource Center and with support from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, we review best practices in framing sexual violence to inform the public about preventing sexual assault. We also highlight ways to communicate with the media, which play an important role in educating the public.
This toolkit, developed in partnership with the National Sexual Violence Resource Center, includes a range of resources to help build relationships with journalists and inform news coverage about sexual harassment, abuse, and assault.
In Del Norte County and Tribal Lands, early literacy is more than a local educational effort. It is a major community-wide cause aimed at improving life outcomes and health. This case study explores how residents, educators, and business leaders are using strategic partnerships, data, and empathy to increase school readiness and to support children's and families' well-being.
All children deserve the opportunity to be healthy and thrive, but an all-too-common marketing practice in which food and beverage companies target kids of color with ads for junk food and soda is compromising the health of young African Americans, Latinos, and Native Americans. In this presentation, we outline the current landscape of junk food and sugary drink targeted marketing, and we share concrete actions that kids, parents, advocates, researchers, and policymakers can take to help hold industry accountable. This PowerPoint slide deck, developed by Berkeley Media Studies Group with support from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, is available for free download, and we encourage advocates and others to adapt and use the presentation to help raise the visibility of targeted marketing as a health equity issue.
Helping people understand that sexual violence can be prevented is a critical step toward a future where abuse and assault are rare. And to make the case for prevention, we need to go beyond the scope of the problem and articulate what to do about it. This messaging guide, developed in collaboration with RALIANCE, a national partnership dedicated to ending sexual violence in one generation, provides concrete guidance for advocates to build effective messages that highlight the need for prevention.
During this webinar for California Wellness Foundation grantees, held August 22, 2018, Berkeley Media Studies Group discussed best practices for getting messages to target audiences. We addressed why understanding your target's values — and aligning them with your work — is the key to inspiring action. Whether you are seeking to influence decision-makers, reach funders and collaborators, or recruit volunteers, crafting values-based messages should be at the foundation of your communications plan.
Early childhood is a critical developmental period because what happens during this time affects health outcomes into and throughout adulthood. How, then, can journalists incorporate complex findings from multiple bodies of science into their reporting to tell a more complete story about early childhood? In this report, we offer recommendations based on a national news analysis and conversations with veteran reporters whose own work on this subject is exemplary.
This tailored webinar for members of the San Joaquin Valley Public Health Consortium focuses on incorporating the elements of newsworthiness into pitches and media events as well as developing relationships with reporters, with a specific focus on health equity and the media markets in San Joaquin Valley.
In 2010, the Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act (HHFKA) brought a stronger focus on equity to federal policies governing school nutrition. The new policy increased low-income students' access to free- and reduced-price school meals and simplified administrative processes in districts with high proportions of eligible children. But were these details making it into news coverage? We conducted two related studies to find out how the policy appeared in news coverage and to what extent equity-based arguments were present.
Residents and advocates in Richmond and Contra Costa County know that to create strong, healthy communities, they have to change misconceptions about formerly incarcerated residents and create a greater public understanding about the need for changes to the criminal justice system. This case study explores how a collaboration of city residents, local and county law enforcement, elected officials, community workers, and, most importantly, formerly incarcerated residents have done just that by creating a nationally recognized reentry network — one that owes much of its success to the power of storytelling.
When it comes to gun violence, news narratives are dominated by stories about mass shootings and federal policy fights, but day-to-day acts of gun violence — which account for the majority of deaths and injuries — and community level solutions to prevent them are much less visible. In this webinar, BMSG researchers discuss findings from an analysis of how three of the most common types of gun violence (community-level violence, domestic violence, and suicide) are portrayed in California news, and possible implications for journalists and community leaders who want to change the narrative to include hope, healing, and community-level action.
This case study tells the story of how advocates in Kern County, California, succeeded in creating a healthier school climate for students after learning that the local school district was suspending and expelling students of color at much higher rates than white students. Read on to learn how they used a combination of tactics, including community organizing, strategic communication, and legal pressure, to create major changes that will benefit young people for generations to come.
Gun violence is preventable, but not enough people know that because news coverage tends to characterize it as inevitable and extreme. Stories about mass shootings dominate coverage, even though these tragedies aren't the major cause of gun deaths in this country. How, then, do the three most common types of gun violence — suicide, domestic violence, and community violence — appear in news coverage? And to what extent are solutions discussed? We explored these questions and more in our latest news analysis.
Trauma is preventable and we, as a society, can and must support our young men of color who are impacted by it, including by changing the public conversation about violence and trauma in our nation. To that end, the Healing Justice Alliance, a partnership between Youth ALIVE!, Cure Violence, the National Network of Hospital-based Violence Intervention Programs (NNHVIP), and Berkeley Media Studies Group, created this toolkit to help organizations of all sizes and strategic aims that are working in this space to identify and achieve their communication goals.
This case study explores how the Monterey County Health Department is collaborating with partners to elevate the role of health in policymaking, better serve disenfranchised communities, and support the ability of all residents to reach their full health potential.
Together with community residents, elected officials, industry leaders, and community-based organizations, the Public Health Division of Napa County's Health and Human Services Agency is working to make housing more affordable for everyone in the county and to reframe housing as a health issue — not just for individuals, but for the entire community. This case study explores how they are using a combination of community engagement, policy change, and strategic communication to push forward innovative solutions to the area's housing crisis.
Through a collaborative led by the San Mateo County Health System's Health, Policy and Planning Program, residents are working alongside leaders from cities, schools, hospitals, and various county departments to make San Mateo County a healthy place for all community members to live. To understand how the collaborative could serve as a model for other health departments, this case study examines how it is being implemented, highlights challenges, and discusses lessons learned.
Along with their community partners, a growing number of health departments are expanding their traditional, service-driven scopes of work and striving to address the root causes of poor health. This series of case studies explores what award-winning departments in Napa, San Mateo, and Monterey counties are doing to eliminate health inequities, examines their successes and challenges, and offers lessons learned.
Despite the greater burden of traumatic experiences carried by communities of color, communicating about childhood trauma and its connections with race and racism can be challenging. In this report, we present the findings from our analysis of how these conversations intersect on social media and consider the implications for communicating about the intersections of trauma, racism, and racial justice.
Advocates and residents in Sacramento are using a combination of policy change, community power-building, and strategic communication to make it easier for people to take part in urban farming. This case study explores their tactics for strengthening access to healthy food, highlights victories and challenges, and shares lessons learned.
It can be hard to communicate about sexual violence clearly and effectively, and one key fact too often gets lost: Sexual violence can be prevented. BMSG and the National Sexual Violence Resource Center have partnered to explore what it takes to communicate with different audiences that preventing sexual violence is possible — and there are tangible steps everyone can take to be a part of the solution. During this Feb. 15, 2018, web conference, we highlighted key lessons from our latest framing brief; shared real-life examples of what’s worked and what hasn’t; and discussed challenges and opportunities communicating strategically in the current moment.
Each year, public health advocates and youth organizers in Salinas, California, close traffic to a mile-and-a-half-stretch of one of the city's busiest streets, transforming it into a community event filled with physical activity and fun. Known as Ciclovía, the event serves a bigger purpose: to reduce violence, forge community bonds, and promote health equity. To understand how organizers are advancing those goals, this case study explores the origins of Ciclovía, its successes and setbacks, next steps and lessons learned.

These were great! I had to swap walnuts for the almonds since I was out and added some extra flax and chia seeds I had kicking around in the kitchen. Will definitely make again.
I made these as a substitute for commercial energy / protein bars. Put some in a zip lock bag and they are perfect on the bike fuel. The size is perfect also. They taste great! The next time I will add some maple syrup.
Great for packing in lunches or taking with you on a hike! High in protein and yummy too!!

From obsolete Russian мамант (mamant), modern мамонт (mamont), probably from a Uralic language, such as Proto-Mansi *mē̮ŋ-ońt (“earth-horn”). Compare Northern Mansi ма̄ (mā, “earth”), а̄ньт (āńt, “horn”). Adjectival use was popularized in the early 1800s by references to the Cheshire Mammoth Cheese presented to American paleontologist and president Thomas Jefferson.
Any species of the extinct genus Mammuthus, of large, usually hairy, elephant-like mammals with long curved tusks and an inclined back, which became extinct with the last retreat of ice age glaciers during the late Pleistocene period, and are known from fossils, frozen carcasses, and Paleolithic cave paintings found in North America and Eurasia.
The Mammotovoy, which is dug out of the Earth in Siberia.
The old Siberian Russians affirm that the Mammuth is very like the Elephant.
Many of our readers will remember the skeleton of the American mammoth, now the Mastodonton, being exhibited in London by Mr. Rembrandt Peale.
(figuratively) Something very large of its kind.
The last load, as we Yankees say, was a "Mammoth": […] producing an aggregate of nearly twelve cords.
Comparable to a mammoth in its size; very large, huge, gigantic.
