More Texas voters unhappy than satisfied over power grid, abortion and property taxes, UT/TT Poll finds
Most voters approve of using state money to add border barriers between Texas and Mexico. But 57% disapprove of a new abortion law's provision allowing lawsuits against people who help someone get the procedure.
Texas 2021 constitutional amendment election results
Unofficial results show that Texas voters approved eight amendments to the state Constitution.
Analysis: A quick turn on property taxes with the long game in mind
High Texas property taxes were an issue in the state's 2018 elections, and you can see from their work on a new homestead exemption earlier this week that state lawmakers didn't forget that lesson from voters.
Texas voters will decide whether to lower their property tax payments after Legislature completes last-minute Hail Mary
If voters approve the measure next year, it will raise the state's homestead exemption from $25,000 to $40,000 for school district property taxes, netting the average homeowner about $176 in savings.
Texas House wants to use federal COVID relief funds to send out $525 checks — but only to homeowners
Republican lawmakers have faced pressure to provide some form of property tax relief this year. Critics of a new proposal say it's politically timed.
Mike Collier wants a rematch against Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick. But first he's got to beat fellow Democrat Matthew Dowd.
Collier says his 2018 close call against Patrick was no fluke. Next year, he's out to prove that his campaign can make a real challenge to the two-term incumbent.
With Texas Gov. Greg Abbott's blessing, lawmakers fast-track property tax cut proposal
Tax relief for property owners joins a packed to-do list for Texas lawmakers — which includes redistricting, COVID-19 vaccine mandates and a spending plan for $16 billion in federal stimulus dollars.
Gov. Greg Abbott adds property tax relief, bail to special session agenda
Abbott has faced pressure from his right to prioritize property tax relief. One of his challengers in the Republican primary has slammed him for not including it earlier in the agenda, and Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick called it his top priority this session.

Notes tell of 100-year-old wartime romance
"Dearest little girl," his letters began.
Owen Thomas Yates, a lovesick World War I soldier from Kentucky, was writing to his sweetheart, Eunice Centers, who had stolen his heart back in Allen County.
"Tom" had grown up on a farm in Barren County; Eunice on a farm just across the line in Allen County. They met while walking home from church not long before he was drafted in 1917.
"I don't know much about other red-headed girls, but I do know that there is one red-headed girl who is the best little girl in the world and the only girl in the world for me," he wrote in one of his many letters to her over the next two years.
Eunice saved all the letters, which eventually were passed on to the Yates children and later copied by a cousin. The originals are now keepsakes of the Yates's grandson, Greg Dunn, an attorney in Cave City, who shared them with me.
"You seem dearer to me every day I am away from you…I wouldn't give one smile from you for every woman in France," Tom wrote from Le Mans on a February day 100 years ago. Although Eunice answered faithfully, her letters often did not reach him for months.
Only one of the letters she wrote—returned to her "undeliverable"—still exists. It reads, in part: "Tom, I dreamed the other night that you had come home, and were here (but woke to find it only a dream), may the time speedily come when my dream shall come true…I am as ever your little girl. By-By-Dearest."
Despite their love for each other, both struggled with doubt from time to time.
"Eunice, I could not blame you if you found someone you could love better than you do me, who is not in the army and can be with you, but life would be very unhappy for me if it wasn't for the thoughts of a little blue-eyed girl down in Allen County that I love, and trust someday will be my wife…"
World War I ended in late 1918, but Tom was not discharged from the Army until September 1919, two years after he was drafted. Then he was met with heartbreaking news. He had tuberculosis, and doctors said that his best hope was to move to a drier climate. He spent two years living alone in New Mexico before he was well, but never stopped writing to Eunice, pledging his love.
"Eunice, I am coming after you," he wrote in November 1921. "I have waited a long time…"
They were married on December 31, 1921, and lived in Albuquerque, New Mexico, for eight more years. They had three children before moving back to Allen County, where they led a happy life together on a 220-acre farm on the Barren River.
Tom died in 1969; Eunice in 1990, but their love still speaks to us in letters saved by the "dearest little girl."

Rookie brings in red lantern to close out 2019 Iditarod
Julie Stricker, jstricker@newsminer.com
FAIRBANKS - Victoria Hardwick, a rookie from Washington state who now lives in Bethel, is the 39th and final musher to cross under the burled arch marking the end of the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race in Nome.
Hardwick, 30, finished the race at 1:51 p.m. Monday with nine dogs. Fifty-two mushers started the race at Willow on March 3. Pete Kaiser of Bethel won the race early Wednesday, March 13. He is the first Yup'ik Iditarod champion.
Twelve mushers scratched and one was withdrawn when a dog in his team died two days after finishing the race. It's an unusually high percentage of scratches for the Iditarod, which traveled along the southern route through the ghost town of Iditarod. Miles of the trail lacked snow over bumpy tussocks or was covered with water, as along a stretch of the Yukon River. Storms cleared out much of the sea ice along the Bering Sea coast, and the trail was routed overland, where high winds drifted this winter's heavy snows.
Nic Petit, the front-runner for much of the race and the 2018 runner-up, scratched after his dogs refused to run over the sea ice outside of Shaktoolik. Last year's champion Joar Leifseth Ulsom and Kaiser took the lead, with Kaiser finishing only 12 minutes ahead of Leifseth Ulsom.
During Sunday night's finish banquet in Nome, the finishers were honored and the following prizes were given out:
Petit won beaver mittens and a mushers hat for being the first musher to McGrath, as well as a five-course gourmet dinner and $3,500 for being the first to reach the Yukon River. Petit also won $3,500 and a hand-carved ivory dog team for being the first to reach the Bering Sea coast at Unalakleet.
Kaiser, who won the race in nine days, 12 hours and 39 minutes, won about $51,000 and a new Dodge Ram truck valued at about $40,000. Kaiser also received $2,000 and 25 pounds of salmon for being the first musher to Kaltag, as well as $2,500 and artwork for being the first to reach White Mountain. His lead dog, Morrow, won the golden harness award.
Two Rivers musher Aliy Zirkle finished fourth overall. She also was the first to reach the halfway point at Iditarod, winning $3,000 in gold nuggets. Zirkle was awarded the Leonhard Seppala Humanitarian Award for outstanding dog care, the fifth time she has won the honor.
Yukon musher Ed Hopkins was named rookie of the year and four-time champ Lance Mackey was voted most inspirational. Aaron Peck won the Herbie Nayokpuk award for his upbeat attitude along the trail and Mats Pettersson the sportsmanship award for helping another musher track down a loose dog team.
Paige Drobny was honored as the "most improved" musher. The Ester musher placed seventh, and was one of three female mushers in the top 10, the first time that has happened in the Iditarod. The other two are Jessie Royer, who finished third, and Zirkle, in fourth.
A dog, Oshi, in the team of Two Rivers rookie Richie Beattie died two days after finishing the race. According to race rules, Beattie was officially withdrawn from the race.

Here's some notes on the topic we scribbled over Gyro's at Zorba's.
generate interest and critical mass before production.
how do we work within Shopify's constraints to build this model?
can we spin off custom-designed Shopify themes? REVENUE!
So, we've already started production on a Shopify theme, and there's no shortage of good product ideas. Add that to our trial by fire (literally) experience creating the Central Texas Wildfire Relief T-Shirt campaign, and we feel this is a great concept and worthy experiment to try. Got any advice? Product ideas? We'd love to hear from you.


In a nonprofit world where almost every group struggles with overhead and limited unrestricted giving (largely made up of new or newer small and mid-level donors that don't tend to direct money at specific projects) donor retention seems like it would be a priority but it's often not.
The growth of online fundraising and building email lists to feed online fundraising has taken attention and resources away from member/donor cultivation and relationship-building. Acquisition campaigns are often built around advocacy and incorporate the latest in online analytics, marketing and testing. Acquisition results are immediate while retention data may take two, three or more years to build.
Don't rely on (or reward) short-term acquisition results. Growing your list by 10,000 new email addresses after spending $20,000 with Change.org is a completed task, not a success. Realize that you know next to nothing about these people and why they joined your group except that they signed a petition. They also know little about your organization. The fact is, no matter how good your welcome series or how personal and timely your thank-yous, people that come into your group for the first time (even with a donation) aren't necessarily invested — most won't stick around. We need to focus on the best prospects and do a better job with them.
Start by rapidly giving people tools to understand what you do, why it's changing the world and what they can expect to be asked to do to help. Give them multiple opportunities to take action in different ways – sending a letter to Congress, sharing a story with friends, following you on social media, coming to a local event or participating in a call. Send that group a short member survey that you can uniquely track. Look for individual actions as well as patterns among the group. Take note of those that did anything in the first six to 12 months and track their giving over time separate from the group as a whole. Chances are, people that engage at least a second time after entering your group's orbit will be better advocates and donors.
Give staff incentives to build strategies that identify and cultivate the best long-term donor prospects. Give them room to experiment with retention, including multi-year performance evaluations. Demand to see data that identifies acquisition history and explains how pools of new donors or list members have fared over time. Reward retention growth, not acquisition (which is easy to do if you throw money at it).
In many organizations, online acquisition is organized around advocacy campaigns and/or online marketing staff. Meanwhile, fundraising (including retention activities) is done by fundraisers. These groups are interested in different outcomes, track their own data and measure success differently. But each depends on the other. Mushing online advocacy, acquisition and fundraising into one big team can help but it can cause more problems than it fixes while creating a team that's not truly great at any part of the process. Give the team room (and responsibility) to collaboratively understand and improve retention.
Is focusing on people most likely to be responsive over time the same as preaching to the choir? Only if you have no plan for growth and continue to recruit from the same pool of people. What we're talking about is coming to a faster, stronger understanding of why people hopped on board and operating better internally to communicate with new people (especially those most likely to stick) in ways that resonate.


Wealthy event attendees applauded and laughed at Trudeau's cruel, mocking, and inhuman response to the protesters, many themselves suffering from mercury poisoning. The interaction was caught on video and Trudeau's remarks, as well as audience laughter, received a firestorm of condemnation. Trudeau was forced to apologize the next morning, he admitted that his response was "smug" and "lacked respect". However, the mainstream media in Canada did not use the opportunity to educate people across Canada on what is really happening in Grassy Narrows, instead, they focused on the personality of Trudeau and whether Indigenous leaders would accept his apology.
The media has failed to properly highlight why members of Grassy Narrows, Wabaseemoong, and Wabauskang First Nations travelled 1,700 kilometres to Toronto to protest Prime Minister Trudeau and why they paid thousands of dollars to make sure a group of activists could disrupt this event.
Mercury is a neurotoxin. The CBC documentary further explains, "The disability board was established in 1986 as part of a court settlement with Ontario and Canada and the two paper companies involved in the contamination. Neither the companies, the governments nor the disability board has ever admitted that anyone at Grassy Narrows has been poisoned — only that some people experience symptoms of Minamata disease." Minamata disease is also known as methyl mercury poisoning.
In interviews with the Toronto Star Newspaper in May 2018, Grassy Narrows residents outline a long list of issues they are facing: uncontrollable shaking, tingling legs and feet, dizziness, seizures, and numbness - the lack of sensitivity means people drop things or cannot feel the touch of others. Some have hearing and vision loss, as well as psychological issues and learning disabilities associated with mercury poisoning. The Minamata disease has also been blamed directly for many untimely deaths in the community.
For the past 5 decades, the people of Grassy Narrows have been dealing with the consequences of mercury poisoning. In December 2018 a new report, "The Legacy of Mercury Exposure in Grassy Narrows First Nation," was jointly published by Dr. Donna Mergler, a Biologist at Université du Québec à Montreal, and Judy Da Silva, a member of the Grassy Narrows First Nation. In an interview with Cable Public Affairs Channel (CPAC) following the release of the report Dr. Mergler, along with Grassy Narrows Chief Rudy Turtle, explain the direct link between fish consumption during pregnancy and prenatal mercury exposure. They found that the more fish the mother ate, the more significant challenges and problems the doctor saw in her children.
On the record in April 2010, then Health Minister Leonna Aglucaq told Parliament that they "reviewed" Grassy Narrows mercury levels and determined the fish to be "Safe".
In February 2016, the Ontario Environment Ministry again said on record that the river was basically cleaning itself over time.
The community has been assured by various levels of government that the fish is safe to eat, while many peoples' lived experiences demonstrate the opposite. It is only in the last two years that journalists from the Toronto Star Newspaper and the report issued by Dr. Mergler have backed up community claims and forced the government to make new promises to the people to Grassy Narrows.
In 2017, for example, the Toronto Star uncovered provincial government reports from the 1990s revealing that they knew there was still mercury in the soil and did not inform the people of Grassy Narrows. The journalists also did on the ground testing and reported on possible sites of ongoing mercury leakage into the river. The provincial government responded to the media coverage promising $85 million towards clean up, and Ontario's provincial Environment Minister, Rod Phillips promised to send dig plans over a year ago to Chief Turtle, but they have yet to materialize.
On November 27, 2017, thenIndigenous Services Minister, Dr. Jane Philpott, promised the federal government would build a specialized mercury poisoning treatment facility in Grassy Narrows. The "Mercury Home" is an important community demand so that those suffering from the effects of mercury poisoning can receive treatment in their community, rather than paying hundreds or thousands of dollars to travel back and forth to the closest hospitals in Kenora, Winnipeg or Thunder Bay.
The protest held at Trudeau's Liberal Party fundraiser on March 27, 2019, happened to fall almost exactly 500 days after Philpott's promise of a Mercury home for Grassy Narrows. The group gathered to protest the fact that after 500 days the money has yet to arrive and they have not yet broken ground towards building the facility.
While we must challenge the governments of Canada and Ontario to do more for Grassy Narrows First Nation, the injustices committed against this community, while sickening, are not an isolated incident in Canada.
In all significant health indicators: infant mortality, maternal mortality, and life expectancy – Indigenous people in Canada are more at risk than nonIndigenous people in Canada. Every statistic shows that Canada's healthcare system is not providing equal care for all. According to Statistics Canada at birth, I was expected to live 10 years longer than a baby girl born to an Inuit mother, simply because I was born a baby girl to a white mother.
If clean drinking water and healthcare are not convincing enough to demonstrate that Canada has a systemic problem, look to the youth suicide epidemic on reserves across Canada; look to the low employment numbers for people living on reserves; look to the high incarceration rates of Indigenous people; look to the over 1,200 murdered and missing Indigenous women and girls across Canada; or look to the consistent Indigenous protests demanding their rights.
When all statistics, reports, and research demonstrate that we have fundamental inequality in our country between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people, we cannot afford to see the mercury poisonings in Grassy Narrows as an anomaly. While it is government inaction, it is also much deeper. It is a whole system that feels it owes nothing to Indigenous people, and indeed that Indigenous people are in the way of its monstrous capitalistic "progress".
On social media the demands of the Grassy Narrows, Wabaseemoong, and Wabauskang First Nations are clear. They want what all people in Canada want and deserve. First, they want their community cleaned up, either by the government or the corporations which allowed them to be polluted. Second, they want adequate, free, and universal healthcare delivered in their own community. Third, they want compensation for those who have been poisoned and continue to be poisoned by government cruelty and inaction. Every single person living in Canada knows that they would want and demand the same things for their families. These are not radical demands; these are just what people in Canada expect on a daily basis and what the government of Canada has already promised.
In "The Legacy of Mercury Exposure in Grassy Narrows First Nation" report there are further recommendations. These include the three demands of the community, but also: increased funding for healthcare (both physical and mental health programs); building the "Mercury Home" as a communitybased long-term care facility for those who have been poisoned; remediation or cleaning up the river; as well as support and resources towards increased food security and special education. Each of these recommendations needs to be funded and built immediately by the governments of Canada and Ontario.
As both Indigenous and non-Indigenous poor and working people, we have a responsibility to listen, to what Indigenous communities are demanding. It is only when Indigenous people have control over their own lands, resources, and communities that they will be able to start recovering and rebuilding after decades and centuries of unjust laws and policies. It is up to Indigenous and nonIndigenous people to stand together to demand the government of Canada respect Indigenous people and their right to determine their own future, their right of self-determination.


Have you noticed that there are some words that we pay attention to and some that we do not really take notice? This is because some words are able to trigger an emotional response from our subconscious mind.
Some words can appeal to our subconscious, it is hypnotic!
Words that are sensory based can bring out our feeling. Sensory words are words that associate with our 5 senses, namely visual, auditory, kinesthetic, taste and smell.
Obviously, these are words that are to do with our eyes.
Paint a picture in your mind of a vast landscape that stretch to the horizon.
Please read my mind when I tell the story.
This is beautiful and I have never seen it anywhere else.
This has to do with our hearing.
The car makes a loud screeching sound that is almost deafening.
Boom…there is a loud explosion outside.
Ring…ring… someone please pick up the phone.
The smooth silky cloth is suitable for the dining table cloth.
This stone is coarse and needs to be smoothen before we can use for the project.
That small sharp edge pricks like a needle.
This has to do with our taste bud.
The soup is still hot.
Yummy! The chocolate tastes really good.
This sweet is as sour as lemon.
This appeals to our nostril.
The aroma of the bread surely freshens us up.
Breathe deeply the fresh air.
The pungent smell turns us off.
In addition, there is one category of words that are linked to feeling.
You are so peaceful that nothing could disrupt you.
His state is almost zen-like, it is awesome.
She cries with joy upon hearing the good news.
If you want to be more specific, you could find out whether a person is more inclined to visual, auditory or the other sensory. For instance, if I am a visual person, I would surely like words that are associated with sight. Therefore, words such as pretty, yellow, clear, far etc would make me understand what you say better. Because I understand better, I am more willing to listen to what you say – it gets my attention.
Imagine yourself walking on a white sandy There is no one around. You feel relaxed. As you are feeling more and more relaxed, you become peaceful.
Sensory based words are not necessarily the only one that appeal to our subconscious. There is another category of words that are frequently used by advertisers. The words used include Free, How To, Instantly, Revolutionary, etc.
In covert hypnosis, hypnotist often uses words that talk directly to our subconscious mind. Words used include Stop, Imagine, Because and so on.

If you like plumbs and want to cook with them, look no further than the humble greengage. Adorably small, attractively green and somewhere between bitter and sweet, greengages lend themselves well to a wide spectrum of sweet dishes, bakes and preserves; not least this simple, yet devastatingly delicious Greengage and Honey Compote.
Cooking with plums inevitably involves the removal of potentially troublesome stones. To make life as easy as possible for yourself, remember to give your greengages a gently squeeze before purchasing, just to make sure they're ripe enough. Besides, choose hard fruit and your compote could end up a little too bitter. Not nice.
At their best and cheapest towards the tail-end of summer, now is the time to get involved with greengages. If you've never tried one, then what are you waiting for? Unfortunately, though they are plentiful in August and September, their season is relatively short; so it's now or never if you fancy a spoonful of delicious greengage compote, sweetened with honey and served alongside a generous spoonful of Greek yoghurt. Really enthusiastic? You could go greengage crazy and serve it atop a slice of frugal Greengage Tart.
Halve and remove the stones from your fruit. Gently heat a tablespoon of honey in a large saucepan, before adding the greengages and lemon juice.
Increase the heat to a brisk simmer and cook for 5-7 minutes until the greengages have broken down. If the compote is looking a little too dry add some water.
Once smooth but with a little body, transfer the compote to a jam jar or similar. If you intend to keep the compote as a preserve make sure the sterilise the vessel with boiling water before hand.
Cost: At a little over £2 per kilo, greengages are a relatively inexpensive fruit to cook with. Ready in about 10 minutes, this recipe for greengage and honey compote is also frugal in terms of time. At around £1.50 per jar, or less than 25p per serving, it's a cheap and flexible dessert ready in a flash if you need something urgently.
Very elegant Nick. A great use of those greengages. They seem to be in great abundance here this year.
Thank you. Just a shame the season is so short!
Chic! I love it, We also, have those in abundance during August, at my side of the world.
That's good to hear; an exceptional fruit!
I love plumbs !!! nice post ..
I haven't seen greengage plums before, but I love the plums of early fall that we have here in Canada: the yellow ones and the purple ones (which I only seem to see sold by the names 'yellow' and 'purple' – they must have other proper names!). If it's possible, I can tell just by looking at the photo of the plums (along with your description of their flavour) that I would enjoy these. If I ever find any, I'll give them a try!
See if you can find some next year, they're totally delicious!
Thank you; they are even better cooked than raw.
I had to find out what a geengages are, as I have never seen them here, nor do I remember seeing them in other states where I have lived. Now I am so curious about the taste!
Google is your friend. Perhaps you have another name for them.
It's a squeeze or a sniff!

Living frugally is a necessity when you are trying to bring your debt under control and must watch each penny you spend.
A successful frugal lifestyle entails making prudent, thoughtful decisions about where and how to spend the least amount of money possible to meet your everyday living needs.
To live well frugally requires keen awareness of the exact amount of money you have coming in each month and choosing the most efficient way to meet each of your expenses.
Making and maintaining a monthly household budget is key to effective, frugal living.
Following are frugal living tips that will help you save more and reduce your financial obligations.
Cancel your cable or satellite TV subscription. Television is a nice-to-have benefit not a necessity. Take up reading or other acitivities to fill the void.
Look for ways to save on your telephone bill. If you have a landline and a cell phone, consider canceling your landline or migrating it to a significantly less expensive internet phone service such as Ooma, Vonage or MagicJack.
If you have an expensive cell phone, sell it for a cheaper model. Contact your carrier to ask about ways to reduce your monthly bill.
If you do not need daily internet service or have an internet phone, use public wifi, if possible, so you can cancel your home internet service.
Take advantage of free medical and dental clinics that are available in your community.
Drink water instead of buying sodas. And, use your own refillable water bottle to save even more money.
Cancel your gym membership. Exercise at home or take advantage of recreational outlets and jogging paths in neighboring parks.
Shop for used merchandise and clothing rather than buy new. Second-hand stores, eBay.com, Bonanza.com and Craigslist.com are options to consider.
If possible, sell your car. Get around by taking public transportation or buying a bicycle or moped. You'll save on gas, car insurance, and vehicle upkeep. If you can't sell your car, try using the above listed transportation methods more often to reduce your expenses.
Turn off lights and electronics when you are not home. In addition, adjust your thermostat to reduce utility costs.
Evaluate where you live and see if downsizing is an option to reduce your monthly expenses.
Cook at home rather than eating out. Take your lunch to work to save money, as well.
Until you are debt-free, curtail your entertainment costs, including movies, nights out with friends, and concerts.
Stop smoking and drinking. It is costly – financially and from a health perspective.
Eat healthy to stay healthy. You'll reduce doctor bills and feel better.
Evaluate all of the insurance policies you own. This includes automobile, healthcare, and renters/homeowners insurance. Make sure you are paying for only the coverage you need. And, if you haven't compared policy pricing in the past two years, get new quotes from up to three insurance companies for each policy you own.

Sometimes odd is enough to get people's attention. Breaking out of the stereotypical molds of a business' category could just raise eyebrows, or it could raise sales. Retail Therapy has supplied a short list of brands making peculiar match-ups. You can read the full article here.
Long gone are the days of fast-food chains simply selling burgers or fries or tacos (or food for that matter). Taco Bell last year rolled out several "Friendsgiving"-inspired sweaters and Hardee's earlier this year unveiled limited-edition ski suits (practical). But even those drops couldn't prepare us for the sheer number of ridiculous things restaurants released recently.
McDonald's (in an overtly obvious move) teamed up with furniture brand La-Z-Boy for a sweepstakes where fans can win a McDelivery Couch, which comes complete with built-in McFlurry coolers, phone chargers, light-up cup holders, adjustable seats, La-Z-Boy iClean stain-resistant fabric and a McDelivery with Uber Eats blanket. Because why would someone want to win the $625 million powerball jackpot when this exists? This is what late-night, infomercial couch dreams are made of.
To enter, fans can tweet about their favorite McDelivery/Uber Eats item and use the hashtag #McDeliverySweepstakes and tag McDonald's until April 8, which is not so coincidentally the date of the NCAA championship game. McDonald's already knows we'll be glued to the TV for the foreseeable future, so we may as well order our food straight to the couch. May the fries be ever in your favor.
But because one is never enough, Dunkin' announced this week it will re-launch its Saucony sneakers in honor of the Boston Marathon, proving that America still literally runs on Dunkin'. The shoes, which flew off the shelves when they were first released last year, will be available in kids sizes this year, too. Now the whole family can proudly rep their donut-grabbing selves through their footwear. To be clear: No one ordered this.
And to top things off, Burger King rolled out a coffee subscription service where consumers can enjoy a hot cup of coffee every day for just $5 a month. This isn't the first time a fast-food company has dipped its toes into the subscription model though: Arby's released a service called "Arby's of the Month" in which subscribers receive a curated box of products each month.
However, the shade Burger King throws directly at Starbucks is a new one. In the promotion, the company says: "Enjoy BK Cafe for a month for the price of a large cappuccino from Starbucks." Yeah, BK just @'d the green mermaid — yikes. But it appears Burger King came to fight in its recent campaigns. The chain is offering its Brazil customers free Whoppers if they virtually set fire to its rival's ads by using Burger King's app.
Fast-fashion retailer Forever 21 has never been shy about releasing nontraditional merchandise and forming odd partnerships. Earlier this year, the company collaborated with Honda and 21 Savage to unveil a collection featuring 34 motocross-inspired pieces.
And these days, anything is fair game when it comes to streetwear — even the United States Postal Service. Forever 21 recently unveiled a collection inspired by the postal company, and it might just be their weirdest drop yet. It includes everything from belts to boxy crop tops to joggers, all with their own unique nod to the USPS: a windbreaker with delivery labels, a cami with the company's logo and a transparent jacket that reads "Official Use." And while the items are relatively cheap — a clutch runs for $14.50 while a hooded jacket is $54.90 — the ridiculousness is oh so rich.
Maybe soon the retailer will drop a new collection featuring little brown shorts? Only time will tell.
We all know that Ikea is as much a home furnishing retailer as it is a restaurant. So we were more than delighted when we saw its annual Easter buffet is back again on April 5. The all-you-can-eat buffet is broken up into three courses, and the menu looks nicer than some wedding menus we've seen.
The first course includes herring, deviled eggs with either shrimp or seaweed pearls, and marinated or poached salmon. That's then followed by an assortment of Swedish cheeses, Swedish cucumber salad, Swedish red potato salad and a plethora of breads: crispbread, crisprolls, softbread and thinbread. We had no idea there were so many different kinds of bread, but we're here for it.
The main course includes chicken meatballs, mashed potatoes or boiled dill potatoes, Jansson's Temptations, Swedish ham and, of course, cult-favorite Swedish meatballs with Lingonberry jam. And while all of this is quite nice, Ikea probably could've just said "all-you-can-eat Swedish meatballs" and the masses would come running.
The buffet costs $16.99 for adults (or $12.99 for Ikea Family members) and $4.99 for children 12 years and younger ($2.99 for Ikea Family members).
However, for those who can't attend what is likely going to be named the event of the year, the retailer has another Easter surprise up its sleeve. Most of us understand that when we go to Ikea, we're going to have to get our hands dirty and assemble our purchases ourselves, and now that even includes chocolate. The retailer this year is selling flat-pack chocolate bunnies to be assembled yourselves, and honestly, it's genius. The chocolate pieces have notches on them to easily slide together and create a bunny — no tools required.
If you've been following along with us for a couple of years, you know we've seen our fair share of odd products. Everything from a purring headless cat to a bong-shaped champagne flute, appropriately named Chambong. But we've never seen something as strange, and frankly terrifying, as these Swiss Army glasses from Victorinox and Glasses USA.
The glasses include many of the same familiar features from a Swiss Army knife: a corkscrew, screwdriver, bottle opener, scissors and a toothpick. You know, everything you want near your eyes. In what situation would we ever need these glasses? They've answered that for us too.
For those brave enough to sport these shades, they're available for preorder on its website starting at $129.

The offered products are not the right forklift accessories? We are also happy to create individual products for your application.
For the supporting blocks, a product-specific pressure test was commissioned in 2018 from an independent materials testing institute. The area load and the point load were tested. The compression test was carried out with the maximum load of 250 kN. In both experimental cases, the supporting blocks have endured the load and withstood the pressure.
Do you need other dimensions? We are happy to be at your disposal for individual solutions. Just contact us.

When I began considering the idea of opening a brewery in the Finger Lakes with my family, we got word of the New York State Farm Brewery Law, which requires farm brewers to use NYS grown hops, malt, and other ingredients in their product (excluding water). Until 2019, at least 20% of the ingredients used to make our beer has to be grown in NYS. In 2019, the percentage jumps to 60%, and then to 90% by 2024. The Farm Brewery Law mimics the state's Farm Winery Law, which helped grow the state's wine industry to where it is today. The opportunity to create a beer using, for the first time, only NYS ingredients was what pushed us to pursue a farm brewery. It felt exciting to be part of an effort that supports local farmers, malting houses, hop growers, and small business owners. There was also historic significance, as we joined the resurgence of the NYS hop industry, which was once the world's largest hop producer.
There's a somewhat controversial term in winemaking called terroir, which means specificity of place, and refers to the climate, soil, and environment that grapes are grown in. For example, an Australian Riesling may taste different than a Finger Lakes Riesling–not just because of possible differences in winemaking technique, but also because of terroir. It is a technical term in the wine industry; if wine has terroir, the word expresses in a subtle way the tastes, colors and aroma of the environment in which the grapes of the region are grown. This can also translate to brewing, which uses malt and hops from different regions. Water, especially, has an impact on beer flavor and aroma (but I will write more about that in another post). Each region may impart its own flavor and aroma. The terroir of the ingredients used will come through in the beer. The terroir and style of New York State hops, malt, and beer is in its infancy.
At SBC, we want our customers to understand that beer is an agricultural product. Growing the grains and hops is just the beginning. After the farmer, the grain goes to a malting house, and the hops are dried and packaged. Each step contains a tremendous amount of work and creativity. Finally, the ingredients reach the brewer. At this point, there is not only a responsibility, but also an artistic opportunity, to do something completely new. Like a chef, brewers are searching for the freshest, most vibrant ingredients, and in our case, we are searching right here in our region.
We think people not only crave craft beer, but craft beer that is truly local. We strive to make the best beer we can from locally-sourced ingredients in NYS.
Great article Chad. Terrific explanation of "terroir". I consider your brewery the best I have ever seen. Your recipes are terrific! Keep up the great work. Regards.
SITE DESIGN BY TIN CAN CREATIVE CO.


below is an extract from an email i received today. the crazy thing is it's not spam, it's a legitimate email to my common ground publishing account. wowzers.
found today: a crafty-critter who creates lego replicas of bands.
meanwhile, i am taking a sharpie to my t-shirts over at SoulPancake land.
my new job has me list writing all day long.
full credit for this one goes to my soul-gazelle-cortney-gusick.
because everyone needs a new procrastination station, i introduce you to wiki-rank which allows you to easily compare how many times things are searched on Wikipedia.
i compared nuts because it's likely that if you stopped me on the street i'd have some kind of nut in my possession. usually almonds. although i'm a fan of cashews too. especially the roasted salted kind. the only nuts i am not partial too are brazil nuts, or macadamias. you can keep those.
anyway, as you can see below, the humble pecan was the loser of the group.
strawberries as big as my head.
because i am over at soulpancake. infusing it with my favorite thing in the world -lists.
www.soulpancake.com is live and running.
this means - devon no longer sleeps.
i'm heading up the 'life's big questions' portion of the site and loving being part of such an amazing project. check it out and spread it. like butter on warm toast. mmm. can you tell i'm fasting?
i really admire how devon's mum, nikki, puts her all into making an occasion as special as possible. if it's your birthday, she will make sure that there is a party happening for you. complete with your favorite cake.
during ayyam-i-ha this year, the ceiling of the gundry's dining room was (still is) littered with colorful balloons. at first glance, you would assume helium was keeping them airborne, but i found out the trick was double-sided tape (super crafty AND thrifty!). as i was admiring the little touch of festivity, dev told me that when they were young, they would come home from school during ayyam-i-ha and get to choose a present from the wall. nikki would take toilet paper rolls and stuff them with treats and wrap them into little prizes. how adorable.
this little tradition reminded me of the ones i loved as a child. one of those was coming home from school and greeting my grandmother who would be sitting by the window knitting up a storm. i would give her a huge hug and she would tell me that the 'tourchin' (armenian for little bird) had left me a gift. under the vase on the windowsill would be a strip of bazooka gum and it would literally make.my.day.
the other thing it reminded me of is my mum pulling over on the side of the road so we could all pick plums off the trees. i remember cars whooshing by, as we all packed our pockets with as many sour plums as we could juggle.
i know i am sounding all hallmark-card-like, but these women manifest the kind of mother i aspire to be. taking the time to enjoy each moment, being creative with what you have and creating sweet and lasting memories.
i am lucky to have some super creative friends who are a constant source of inspiration. two of them, amy and leila, created a site last year called nineteen days, where they documented the baha'i fast through photographs. they would each take a photograph at dawn, and then at dusk, and post them as a composite with a quote from the baha'i writings, along with some brief musings on the fast.
i loved this site and was eagerly anticipating it starting up again this year.
well, you can imagine my excitement and glee (i love the word GLEE) when amy asked if i would participate this year. they asked 19 guest bloggers in total to post their dawn and dusk photographs for one of the days of the fast.
my day was yesterday and you can see my photographs here.
thank you amy and leila for letting me join in your delicious project.
ironing my pants while wearing them.
i was in high school. and i was running late. neither one of these facts excuses my momentary stupidity. but there you go.
one day in assembly i popped the blister that had formed and my best friend jasmine, who had to endure watching this procedure, nearly threw up on the spot.
i don't really know why i would share this pretty revolting story in a public sphere.
blame plinky and its prompts.
one of my favorite words is crepuscular, meaning active during the twilight. and my least favorite word? swab.
the word has an ugly sound. and makes me think of the time the curiosity got the better of me and i searched youtube for flesh wounds and was forever scarred by what i saw.


A cartoonish effigy of Monsieur Christian Dior constructed from 70,000 peonies and roses; a Dries Van Noten catwalk resembling an extravagant never-ending banqueting table; a Moncler snowscape appearing as a colourful alpine scene reflected through the lens of a kaleidoscope. These are only three of over 800 examples of the sensational runway spectacles orchestrated by renowned Belgian show producer Etienne Russo. A conductor-like figure, Russo fine-tunes the many facets of a fashion show, be it set design, music, lighting or model choreography – uniting these disparate elements into a sublime multisensory crescendo. These are the moments that audiences on the front row, or behind the screen of a phone, remember for years to come.
Russo founded his Brussels-based special events and show production company villa eugénie in 1995, and over the last two decades he has nurtured an impressive client list, bringing the creative visions of brands such as Chanel, Kenzo, Moncler, Miu Miu, Hermès and Givenchy to life. But it was in 1991, when the then burgeoning fashion designer and fellow Belgian Dries Van Noten, asked Russo to swap modelling in his shows for helping him design the sets, that his career in creative production was born.
Quick thinking and problem-solving are synonymous with the success of creative production, where set design, music or lighting issues can present themselves up to the minute before a fashion show's start time. His long-time collaboration with Dries Van Noten has produced some impressive feats of ephemeral mise-en-scène. Take the brand's S/S 2005 womenswear show held in celebration of its 50th collection, for which he staged a banquet for 500 people, with twinkling chandeliers lighting up one long table which transformed into a runway. Or the 48-metre long carpet by artist Alexandra Kehayoglou, which resembled a mossy forest floor and took four weeks to create. Russo laid it along the catwalk for the brand's S/S 2015 women's show, which was inspired by John Everett Millais' Pre-Raphaelite masterpiece 'Ophelia'.
For A/W 2018, Moncler's personality was at an all time high, when the brand unveiled its monumental Genius Project at the Palazzo delle Scintille in Milan. Russo has created some incredible fashion shows for the Italian outerwear house, another of his long-time clients, including a 'Doctor Zhivago' inspired winter ball at the New York's Hammerstein Ballroom for Moncler Grenoble A/W 2017, and a flash mob at Manhattan's Grand Central Terminal for Moncler Grenoble A/W 2011.
For Moncler's Genius showcase, Russo was enlisted to realise the diverse creative visions of the roster of designers asked to reimagine its classic down jacket, including Craig Green, Simone Rocha and Valentino's Pierpaolo Piccioli. 'It was like producing eight different shows simultaneously,' he says. The label's enormous venue featured different presentation spaces secreted behind silver fabric; Craig Green's eerie underwater world, Simone Rocha's papery mountain landscape and Pierpaolo Piccioli's ecclesiastical environment were housed beneath.

I am building a binder reference for an Army contract to support FCA and PCA requirements.
Bob Aiello replied on April 4, 2014 - 5:16pm.
can you please be a little more specific about what you want to see in a checklist for a physical configuration audit (PCA) and a functional configuration audit (FCA)? You probably want to consult with references for the MIL standards. Is this for software, hardware or both?
In general, the physical configuration audit ensures that you have the right configuration items (CI) in place. There are many ways to do this including embedding a immutable version or using cryptography.
The functional configuration audit ensures that the CIs are doing the right thing. To implement this, I would need to know a little more about the technologies involved.
Jason Baker replied on May 25, 2017 - 9:16am.
Take a look at http://www.4tellsolutions.com - We just started using it because it includes the full checklist and checks the work for our assessors as they go - field validation etc. It made our FCA checklist process so much easier. Not sure if they have PCA's too.

Modeling for the sake of your family!
Ladies....when I say 'modeling' I am not talking about putting on our most fabulous, and fanciest outfits then strutting down our hallway from the bathroom.
When I say 'modeling' I am stating that the way we teach our children shapes who they will inevitably become. If you have two kids, or watch your child play with their friends, stop and watch both of their behaviour. It is quite fascinating to see how they interact with each other if you haven't already noticed. My two-year-old copies everything my five-year-old does, even if it doesn't apply to her (because she doesn't know any better). The other day, my five-year-old told me that she was excited about her ski race and then ran to get her clothes on. My two-year-old mimicked the exact behaviour and genuinely believed that she had a race. If my girls argue (rarely but it happens) the argument is like watching a redo of a clip— the other one will immediately do the same thing as their sister.
Have you ever heard your child repeat something you say, (let's take the word $HIT as an example because I know we all have our quirky words) and you are like "$HIT I have to stop saying that"? It is like you just got stepmom or mom slapped in the face.
Rude awakening, I like to call it.
Let's go a layer deeper.
If you were a fly on the wall watching your interactions with people or your personal items how would you view it? What would you see and hear from an outside perspective? You might think you have been a pretty darn good role model. A pat on the back is well deserved. Yes—go ahead and pat yourself on the back for all of the great things you do for your children! However, everyone has work to do (some more than others for whatever reason). In the moments that you aren't proud of, where you just cannot stop yourself from going to the places of anger, frustration, overwhelmed, etc., those are the times that you are then faced with regret, guilt, and sadness for how you/we may have handled the situation.
Have you heard of the term "rager" or "raging" before? The dictionary defines it as a person or thing that rages in anger. Count us out of that category, right? Ummm…maybe not. If you have ever yelled at your child or another person, this might be considered raging behaviour. Does that make you a "RAGER" per se? No, definitely not. In the eyes of your children, however, they might feel the fear of that of being faced with a "rager" when they are being yelled at, etc. If this raging behaviour occurs over and over again, this can contribute to small traumas.
Small traumas grouped together can lead to one big trauma. There are plenty of adults that experience nervous breakdowns or depression-like feelings and don't understand where these negative feelings come from. They might think that growing up they lived a relatively normal life without any intense trauma such as the loss of a parent or divorce for example. Little do they know that all of these tiny raging moments they experienced added up, and finally had to come out somehow—cue in blowing horn here! You get the point.
We are so quick to put our children in time-outs to give them a break when we think they need it. I am going to guess our children probably would put us in a time-out if they could. Have you ever thought of taking a time out for yourself? Go a step further by telling your children that you are *insert feeling here* and need a time-out. This is good modeling as you are sharing your feelings with your children and teaching them that adults are not superhuman.
Too many adults have been bred to be tough and suppress their emotions. This can lead to issues that, over time, can build and blow like a volcano. Perpetuating this practice of bottling up your emotions can lead to poor choices that, over time, could force you down a road of depression, an unhappy and unhealthy relationship, loss of job, and worst of all—your children learning this to be normal behaviour. History then begins to repeat itself.
I am not saying this one little change prevent all of this negative behaviour and potential scenarios, but it can be added to your toolbox to help you to better model.
Show your kids the love between the two of you! Children need to see love in order to know how to express love, and in turn to feel loved. There's a reason why they say, 'love is the answer', 'love can health the world', and any other cheesy quote about love that you just love! Show your children the tender moments of vulnerability. Show them sweet displays of affection like holding hands with your partner, kissing for no reason, rubbing each other's shoulders. You need to show them how to love in a way that includes all feelings so they know how to communicate any emotion with love in mind. By showing your children that you and your partner take pride in ensuring you both know that you matter, they will make others feel the same way. Be sure to involve the children in doing nice things for your significant other, this teaches them the complete process of treating the people they love with love!
Healthy breaks are good for everyone. You need to take care of yourself first before you can take care of others. You know when you are on an airplane and they tell you to put on your oxygen mask before helping anyone else? This is a rule you should live by! If you don't take care of yourself first, then no one around you can receive what you have to offer. If you don't make sure that your oxygen mask is on first, you'll fall unconscious as well as the ones you were trying to help first. Think about this one stepmoms!
Suffocating yourself in a scenario long term will not lead to good modeling. Take some time for yourself when necessary to ensure you are the best you that you can be. Go away for an hour, a day, a weekend. If you only can take or need an hour of time for yourself, try to make it a regular occurrence such as a yoga class every week. Make sure your pot is full stepmoms so you have enough to share with those you love!
We hope these tools are helpful for you. They definitely might feel uncomfortable at first but they will benefit your children in so many ways that will carry on to their adult life.

AdGooroo (www.adgooroo.com), a Kantar Media company and global leader in search marketing intelligence, today announced the relaunch of its Trademark Insight brand monitoring service with powerful new features to help search marketers easily identify competitors, affiliates and partners who are bidding on and using their trademarked brand terms in Paid Search ads in more than 50 countries worldwide. As part of the new service, advertisers will receive enhanced insight into the impact each violation is having on their campaign performance—including the number of stolen clicks and impressions generated—to help identify the most egregious brand infringers and determine where to focus their corrective efforts.
Trademark monitoring in Paid Search is of particular importance to industries such as Travel, where, for instance, hotels, airlines and cruise line operators risk losing significant revenue to online travel agency sites and affiliates who are not following the brand's restrictions for bidding on and using its trademarked terms in their search ads.
Among its many new features, Trademark Insight also monitors for brand violations that are particularly serious and difficult to detect, including violations in an ad's 'destination URL', which are not visible in the ad, and hijacked URLs, which mimic the brand's actual site URL and siphon off its website traffic.
AdGooroo is a Kantar Media company and global leader in Search Marketing Intelligence that helps the world's best known brands and their agencies achieve a competitive advantage in the Media. Founded in 2004, more than 4,000 search marketing professionals trust AdGooroo for reliable, actionable insights to uncover their top competitors' paid and organic search strategies and improve their own campaign performance. Offering a complete picture of the search marketing landscape, AdGooroo enables clients to view current and historical data— including spend estimates, performance statistics, keywords and ad creative—for virtually any advertiser's text ad and product listing ad campaigns across desktop, tablet and mobile search in more than 50 countries.

Q: Charts.js -> Display / Load chart only when visible on the screen This is my first question, I was searching for the answer here and on Google but to no avail.
I am preparing a website for accountancy company, they have requested a demo to be created with some data visualisations. I have opted to use 'charts.js'.
My problem is this, I want the chart to load only when visible on the screen. At the moment they all load at the same time therefore you miss the quite nice animation.
Extending on my question, I would like text next to the chart to 'ease-in' too, also only when visible on screen.
Would someone be kind enough to point me to the right material on the 'net, or maybe show me an easy way to achieve this?
Kindest regards and thank you in advance!
As requested, I am adding simple code that displays two charts below the screen. To make this work you will need Chart.js from here: Chart.js Website

Man City in talks with Schalke's Sane, confirms Guardiola
Reuters , Thursday 21 Jul 2016
Schalke's Leroy Sane (Reuters)
No buy-out clause for Sane to leave this year: Schalke
Schalke boss rules out sale of rising star Sane
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has confirmed the club are in talks with Schalke 04 attacking midfielder Leroy Sane but the move is stalling over the player's valuation.
"Sane is a player of Schalke. Of course we talk to him - Schalke knows we are interested, but at this moment we don't have many possibilities to get him," Guardiola told reporters.
The Spaniard was speaking after his side's 1-0 friendly loss to his former club Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena, his first game in charge of the English club.
"There is a difference between Manchester City and Schalke and it is quite big. I do not know what is going to happen but right now he is with Schalke," he said of the 20-year-old Sane, who was in the Germany squad at the Euro 2016.
Schalke 04 sporting director Christian Heidel Winger has confirmed Sane has asked the club for a transfer.
Sane scored eight league goals and grabbed six assists for Schalke last season as the Bundesliga club finished fifth in the standings.

Updated: Twitter Soars On Surprise Q2 Profit, Upbeat Revenue
Teresa Rivas
Updated July 29, 2014 4:19 pm ET / Original July 29, 2014 4:09 pm ET
Twitter (TWTR) was jumping after hours on its second-quarter earnings report.
The social media site said it earned two cents a share on revenue of $312 million.
Analysts were expecting the company to lose one penny per share on revenue of $283 million.
Mobile active users (MAUs) were 271 million in the quarter, up from 255 million in the first quarter and above the 256.6 million consensus, according to Briefing.com.
The company said third quarter EBITDA would be between $40 million and $45 million on revenues between $330 million and $340 million, compared to the $323.7 million consensus. It also raised its full year revenue forecast to a range of $1.31 billion to $1.33 billion, above the $1.27 billion consensus.
Twitter has had a rocky history of earnings reports since going public in November. In late April Twitter dropped after reporting first-quarter earnings, as its better-than-expected results were overshadowed by a downbeat full-year forecast, and took another big hit in early May when the expiration of lock-ups on stock sales by insiders arrived.
Its fourth-quarter report in January also sparked a selloff, as investors fretted over monthly active user metrics, overlooking a surprise profit and better-than-expected revenue. The company appointed a new CFO at the start of the month.
Read a roundup of analyst previews for the quarter here.
Update: At 4:20 the shares are up 27%.

Under 17s defeated by Shamrock Rovers

Bray Wanderers (u17) 0 Shamrock Rovers (U17) 4
Under 17 squad v. Shamrock Rovers
Bray suffered their first U17 EA Sports National Underage League home loss in the 2022 season when going down to a clinical Shamrock Rovers.
The Hoops led 3-0 at the interval on Saturday afternoon at Ballycorus before registering their four win in a row. The match was delayed due to a clash of the Green and White gear before the visitors lined out in an all-Black strip.
Just eight minutes had ticked by when the away side cleared a free to counterattack. John O'Sullivan's shot was blocked by Pharrell Manuel followed up to bury the rebound.
Wanderers – who go into the contest on the back of their own three-match winning streak – went close four minutes later but Max Mason flashed his effort wide. The Hoops doubled their lead in the 17th minute when O'Sullivan dinked a lob over goalkeeper Samuel Safaei despite claims for offside. A third nearly arrived in the 26th minute. Safaei challenged Tofumi Afolabi in the box. Despite cries for a penalty from the away dugout, play continued. The loose ball ran to Cian Dillion. But somehow Callum Goud deflected the ball on the crossbar. Yet, the visitors did make 3-0 in style five minutes before the break. O'Sullivan unleashed a 25-yard shot that swerved and dipped into the far-left corner of the net.
Just three minutes into the second period, Mason had a goal harshly ruled out for offside when he appeared to be on.

The minimum monthly payment will be the highest of: £25 (or the amount owing if less); or any interest or fees plus 2% of the remaining balance. This Credit Card is not intended for long-term borrowing; paying the minimum payment will cost more and takes longer to clear your balance.
Missing a payment incurs charges, and can impact your credit rating, making it difficult or expensive to get credit in future. Failure to keep up repayments could result in: the cost of your debt growing; legal action (and associated costs); or a charging order resulting in repossession of your property.
To maintain any promotional interest rate, keep payments up to date and stay within the credit limit. Interest rates, fees and charges may be increased (if there are changes in your circumstances or our costs). Some types of Card use are more costly (e.g. cash withdrawal).
