Spicy Sweet Potato Juliennes

A lot of health magazines are classing  sweet potatoes as one of the  most nutritious vegetables.  I will leave that debate to the experts.  I grew up eating sweet potatoes in curries, chips and crisps and still enjoy them as they taste slightly better than the potato.   There are two varieties of sweet potatoes sold in most supermarkets – one with a slightly redder skin and white flesh and one with a lighter colour and yellow flesh. This recipe works with both varieties but the cooking time taken for the yellow flesh one is less. For this recipe, I used the white fleshed sweet potatoes.

Ingredients for 2 servings

  • 2 medium to large sweet potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 or 2 green chillies for garnishing

1. Wash and scrape the sweet potatoes
2. Cut them across into thick slices first and then cut  these slices into julienne.
3. Heat the olive oil.4. Add the sweet potatoes and season them with salt and pepper.5. Transfer to a microwave dish and cook for 5minutes.

6. Add lemon juice to the sweet potatoes and microwave for 2 more minutes.

7. Garnish them with green chillies and serve them as a side dish to any meal.

8.  For Hindus around the World the month of Shravan is a holy month.  This is an auspicious month for Hindus and a lot of them will be fasting during this month. Some fast for the whole month eating only fruits, nuts, root vegetables like potatoes and sweet potatoes, milk and milk products and avoiding grains.  Sometimes a little innovation like this recipe can make the fasting foods more interesting.

Eldon nelson is dating

” While President Nelson was serving as a stake president and as the general president of the Sunday School, which future apostle would serve as the first counselor in both presidencies? After four years and meetings with high-level government officials, the church was recognized by the Czech government in February 1990. According to his biography, President Nelson was originally selected to create a surgical research unit at the Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D. However, after moving from Utah with his wife, who was expecting their second child, and his daughter, President Nelson was reassigned to Korea.

When President Nelson received the call that the Church was officially recognized he was overjoyed. Due to a change in commands, his orders were delayed, which allowed time for President Nelson to help his wife and now two daughters move back to Utah.

When Eldon Holliday sold his automotive repair business in 2007, he didn't need to rush to find another job.

"I was able to cash out on top so my wife and I traveled for about six months," he says.

President Nelson started each day with an hour to himself for personal scripture study, prayer and practicing the hymns and Bach on the organ. His daughter had a baby “Saturday of April conference of 1984 has been circled on our calendar for many years, for that date was targeted as the first time in my life that our only son would be old enough to attend general priesthood meeting with me. Later, in June 1971 when President Nelson was asked to serve as the general president of the Sunday School, he again chose Elder Wirthlin to serve with him as the second counselor.

Online webinars and regional meetings arranged by the franchisor help keep him up to date on both technical aspects and new trends in the property inspection business.

When you think about hitting shots with your driver, you probably think about one thing right away – distance.

What is the Best Option for Better Driver Accuracy?

All golfers love to hit long drives off the tee, and it is easy to understand why. For one thing, hitting a long drive can give you an advantage on that particular hole, since you will be closer to the target than if you had hit a shorter drive. In addition to the functional advantage of placing your ball farther down the fairway, hitting long drives is simply fun. You will be able to impress your friends and revel in the sight of the ball soaring high over the middle of the fairway before coming back to earth. While there is certainly more to golf than just long drives, there is no doubt that these types of shots are some of the most enjoyable in the game.

With all of that said, we aren’t going to be talking about distance in this article. Rather, we are going to be talking about accuracy. You see, those long drives are only useful if they actually land in the fairway. It does no good at all to blast a long drive if the ball veers off in an unexpected direction. Wayward drives are one of the fastest ways to add strokes to your score. Good golfers know that while distance is valuable, it is accuracy off the tee which should be the top priority.

One of the ways you may be able to improve your accuracy is to grip down on the driver before making your swing. In this article, we are going to discuss the pros and cons of this method, and we will provide some tips on how you can test it out for yourself. Of course, we aren’t suggesting that you should choke down on every single driver shot you hit, as that would limit your ability to produce long drives. Rather, you should think about choosing your spots carefully, based on the design of the course you are playing. Facing a narrow fairway on a relatively short hole? Choke down a bit and favor accuracy. Find yourself on the tee of a long, wide par five? Keep your hands up at the top of the grip and let it rip. By thinking strategically on each tee, you can optimize your plan for the circumstances.

All of the content below is based on a right-handed golfer. If you happen to play left-handed, please take a moment to reverse the directions as necessary.

The Benefits of Gripping Down on the Driver

The Benefits of Gripping Down on the Driver

It would be silly, of course, to grip down on your driver if you weren’t going to benefit in any meaningful way. Before you make any change in your game, you need to be sure that the change is going to improve something about your performance. Only when the benefits of making a change outweigh the drawbacks should you go ahead with that adjustment.

The list below highlights a few of the ways in which you may benefit by gripping down on your driver. You may not experience all of these benefits in your own game, however, so it will be important to experiment for yourself in practice before trying this on the course.

  • Hit more fairways. As you certainly gathered from the title of this article, the main way you stand to benefit from gripping down on the driver is by hitting more fairways. Placing the ball in the fairway is one of the most important things you can do as a golfer. The modern game has become more and more focused on raw distance, but accuracy is still a vital piece of the puzzle when trying to put together a low score. Why should you expect to be more accurate when you grip down? There are two main reasons. First, you are going to slightly reduce your swing speed when gripping down on the club, and a slower swing is less likely to send the ball way off line. Additionally, by using what is effectively a shorter club, you will have an easier time finding the sweet spot at impact. There is less distance between your hands and the ball, meaning you don’t have to be quite as precise in order to make good contact. Neither of these benefits guarantees a good outcome, of course, as you still have to make a quality swing. However, by choking down on the driver a bit, you do swing the odds of a good shot slightly further in your favor.
  • Stay out of the wind. Another good reason to choke down on the driver is to keep the ball out of the wind. This is obviously beneficial when hitting a tee shot into the wind, but it is also helpful when playing in a difficult cross wind that may blow your ball off target. The ball should fly lower when you grip down on the driver, thanks to the reduced swing speed we mentioned above. With less speed on the ball, and less backspin, the trajectory you produce will almost certainly be lower than your usual flight. Too many amateur golfers are one-dimensional in terms of the ball flights they can produce, and that limitation becomes a big problem when conditions get difficult. If you know how to hit controlled drives by choking down on the driver, you will have a good option available when the wind picks up.
  • Produce a new shape. Speaking of adding dimensions to your game off the tee, you might develop a new shot shape when you choke down on the driver. For instance, if you are a player who almost always hit a fade off the tee, you may find that it’s easier to turn the ball over for a draw when you move your hands down the grip. So, not only would you be able to use this adjustment for accuracy purposes, but you’d also be able to use it when the shape of the course asks for a certain flight. It’s hard to say exactly how choking down on the club is going to impact your ball flight, so be sure to put in plenty of practice time on the range.
  • Deal with pressure. When you think about pressure on the golf course, you probably think first about short shots. It tends to be putts and chips that are most severely impacted by the presence of pressure. With that said, you can also have your driver performance negatively impacted when you are nervous. If you are facing an important tee shot and you know that you’re nervous, think about choking down a bit just to make the shot a little easier. This will limit your distance potential to a degree, but that is a worthwhile trade if it means you are able to hit a good drive. All golfers need to have a few strategies available to deal with pressure, and this is a good one.

Learning how to grip down on your driver is a valuable step to take in your game. While you aren’t going to use this method all the time, it will be nice to know that you can turn to this option in certain situations. Many amateur golfers struggle to even keep the ball in play off the tee from hole to hole, so improving your accuracy with this simple adjustment may put you ahead of the competition at your local club.

The Drawbacks

The Drawbacks

It would be a mistake to highlight all the benefits of choking down on the driver without mentioning the limitations of this method. You need to understand the drawbacks in order to properly gain perspective on when this shot should be used, and when it should be kept in the bag. Picking the right shot for the right situation is one of your most important jobs as a golfer, and the ability to do that successfully comes down to understanding each shot in your arsenal.

Let’s take a moment to look at a few potential drawbacks of moving your hands down the grip before making a driver swing.

  • It’s an adjustment. Consistency is key in golf. If you asked nearly any golfer what he or she would like to improve in their golf game, the answer would come back ‘consistency’ more often than not. The more things can stay the same in your game, the more you will improve on your ability to execute properly. So, with that said, it should be easy to understand why adding too many adjustments to your game can be a bad thing. Even something as simple as moving your hands down the driver grip is going to cause the club to feel different during the swing. This is why it is so important to have a good reason for making the change. If you feel that you will benefit in a very specific way from making this adjustment, it will be worth it to proceed. But, you should only go in this direction when you have a clear reason for doing so. Otherwise, sticking with your standard technique is the right plan.
  • The distance sacrifice. There is no way to get around it – if you choke down on the grip of your driver, you will almost certainly hit the ball shorter off the tee. And, if you hit a shorter drive, you are going to leave yourself with a longer approach. For example, let’s imagine you are playing a 400-yard par four. These days, 400-yard par fours are relatively common, even if you aren’t playing from the back tees. For the purposes of this example, we will say that you can normally hit your driver 240-yards, when using the entire club. However, when you choke down, that distance drops to 220. Instead of leaving yourself with a 160-yard approach, you now have to play into the green from 180 yards away. That’s a big difference, and it likely means you will need to use two additional clubs – perhaps using a four iron instead of a six iron to hit the approach. Sacrificing distance for accuracy can certainly be the right choice in some situations, but you have to think clearly about the hole you are playing before moving forward.
  • Another thing to practice. As a golfer, you have a lot to work on in your game – and limited time to do the work. For starters, you need to work on your standard swing, your putting stroke, your chipping and pitching technique, your bunker play, and more. In addition to all of those ‘basic’ skills, you also need to make time in your practice sessions for any specialty shots that you want to have available on the course. It wouldn’t be a good idea to choke down on your driver out on the course if you haven’t first worked on it in practice, so you’ll have to make time for this shot as part of your routine. Be sure to plan out your practice sessions carefully so you can touch on as many different shots as possible in the time you have available.

There is still a lot to like ab out gripping down on the driver, but we aren’t pretending that this shot is perfect. You do need to consider the drawbacks to using this method, including the three points listed above.

Putting It into Action

Putting It into Action

If you decide to try this shot out for yourself during an upcoming practice session, you will need to have a plan. While this is a relatively simple swing adjustment – compared to some of the other adjustments you can make in golf – it is still going to take some time to make it work properly in your game. As you get started with this shot, keep the following tips in mind.

  • Stand a bit closer. This one might be obvious, but it needs to be included nonetheless. When you choke down on the grip of the driver – or any club, for that matter – you are going to shorten the effective length of the club. In other words, it is going to feel like you are swinging a shorter club, since the end of the shaft is now on the other side of your hands. So, in order to make up for the fact that the club is now effectively shorter, you will want to stand a bit closer to the ball at address. This shouldn’t be a dramatic change – even just an inch or two should be enough to put you in a comfortable spot. As you work out the details of this shot on the range, pay attention to your stance and experiment with different positions until you find one that feels good.
  • Pay attention to your tempo. One of the potential problems with this type of shot is that you may feel a bit rushed during your swing. The club is going to feel lighter than normal, and the overall arc of the swing will be shorter. In the end, you may wind up with a rushed tempo and an awkward move through the ball. Obviously, that is not the ideal outcome. While you should always be paying attention to your tempo while on the course, it is particularly important to focus on tempo when choking down on your driver (or any other club). Give yourself plenty of time to make a full turn away from the ball and make a smooth transition into the downswing. Even if you work on this key on the driving range, remember to give it your full attention to the course as well. It is easier to swing with a good tempo on the range than it is on the course, since you will likely be a little nervous or anxious when hitting your shots during an actual round.
  • Get all the way through to the finish. When you are hitting a shot where you have choked down on the grip, you are probably thinking first and foremost about accuracy rather than distance. That is a smart thing to do, but don’t let that line of thinking impact your technique too severely. In other words, don’t cut your swing short just because you are trying to hit the fairway. Even when gripping down on the driver, you still want to swing all the way through to a full, balanced finished. When the swing is complete, your chest should be facing the target and you should be balanced with most of your weight on your left leg. If you notice that you tend to give up on these swings a little early, make it a point to get all the way to your normal finish position in order to give yourself a better chance at success.
  • It’s never easy to learn a new shot in this game. While the swing you need to make in order to hit your driver while gripping down is not that much different than your normal swing, it will feel awkward at first. Be patient with yourself and watch for signs that you are getting more and more comfortable with the technique required to produce good shots.

    The Mental Game

    The Mental Game

    The value of the mental game in golf is vastly underestimated by most golfers. If you are going to play at a high level in golf, you need to think clearly about what you are doing on the course. That’s just how it works. You can’t play good golf without hitting good shots, and you can’t hit good shots without making good decisions. The golfers you see playing for millions of dollars on television did not make it to that point on raw talent alone. They need to have the talent to hit great shots, but they also need to have the decision-making abilities to go with that talent.

    Let’s finish up this article by touching on a few mental game tips that relate to gripping down on your driver.

    • You need 100% commitment. This one is important. Before you swing the club, you need to be fully committed to the shot at hand. That is true for all of your shots, and it applies here as well. When you decide that you are going to choke down on your driver for a particular tee shot, you need to be fully committed to that choice. If there is any doubt still lingering in the back of your mind, take another moment to think it over and decide how to move forward. Second thoughts are a sure way to cause poor shots, so don’t let self-doubt get in the way of producing good results.
    • Be realistic. You can’t have everything in golf. If you decide that you are going to choke down in order to improve your accuracy on a given shot, that decision means you are going to sacrifice some distance – and you need to be okay with that sacrifice. If you decide that you are going to choke down but then swing extra hard in the hopes of still hitting a long shot, you’ll just be getting in your own way.
    • Lean on comfortable shots in tight situations. When the pressure is really on, you want to be hitting shots that you know you can trust. If you have built up your belief in the gripped-down driver shot, then feel free to put it into action. If not, stick with a standard drive. While it is true that the choked down driver can help you under pressure, that will only be true if you have enough belief in the shot to pull it off properly.

    Learning how to grip down on your driver is an important skill and one which can help you in a variety of situations on the golf course. We hope the discussion offered in this article will help you add this shot to your repertoire in the near future. Good luck!

Dentures are a wonderful way to restore missing teeth.

Unfortunately, most dentures are made with metals, which some people are allergic to. It’s been this way for decades, but with influence from natural dentists, more general and restorative dentists, as well as dental labs, are utilizing non-metal options.

Get Safe, Biocompatible Dentures from a Holistic Dentist in Cleveland

A natural dentist provides their edentulous patients with a biocompatible treatment plan. Their treatment plan benefits them in multiple ways. It’s:

  • Safe
  • Affordable
  • Convenient

Biocompatible, Ceramic Dentures and Non-Metal Partial Dentures

Dr. Rose has been serving his community for over 30 years and is a member of the holistic dentistry board. Over the years, he’s found non-toxic ways to restore his patient’s teeth. One way he does this is with non-metal partial dentures. Full dentures can also be fabricated using ceramic or zirconia.

Some people worry that non-metal dentures aren’t as strong as metal dentures. However, the materials used to make biocompatible dentures are quite durable. When properly maintained, they can last just as long as metal dentures.

Affordable, Same-Day Dentures

Dr. Rose understands that many of his patients are on a fixed income. To help them restore their missing teeth affordably, he offers same-day dentures. This reduces costs, provides patients with beautiful dentures, and reduces their time in the dental chair.

It’s Possible to Get a Complete, Beautiful Smile without Toxic Metals

So many people put their health at risk in the name of aesthetics. Fortunately, people can have a beautiful, natural-looking smile without having to invest in unhealthy metal dentures. Talk to a holistic dentist in Cleveland to learn more about the benefits of zirconia or ceramic dentures.

Avoid the health risks of metal dentures. Enjoy biocompatible dentures and bridges instead! Contact us to learn more.

Cedar plank salmon

It is officially grilling season in our house.  We are letting our oven take a little rest, while we move the cooking outside.

I love to grill.  However it has only been in the past few years that I’ve become comfortable playing around on the grill without JonPaul.  Previously it was only something I did when he was around.  I’m not sure why.  I just always left “grilling” to him.  But not anymore.

I had no idea how much I was missing out.  It is has been so fun to play around and try some new techniques.   One of my favorites new has been using cedar planks to grill salmon (clearly not new – just new to me ;).

Although I love salmon on the stove top, there is something really special about salmon cooked on the grill, especially with cedar planks.  It creates and light smoky flavor.  But what really stands out for me is the texture.  I cook the salmon using indirect heat, so it cooks the fish a little slower and keeps it really tender and delicate.

If you’ve never used cedar planks before, they take a little planning because you need to soak them.  Not a lot of work, just a little foresight.  You want to submerge the entire plank in water (I do it in a baking dish) for at least an hour, but can soak it up to 4 hours.  Then when you go to grill the salmon, heat the plank first (without the fish on it).  Heat it for a few minutes, then flip the plank over, and place your salmon directly on the now hot plank (don’t make the mistake of walking outside carrying your salmon on a plank that hasn’t been pre-heated).

Grilling with indirect heat is fairly easily as well, you just need to play around with it to find what works best depending on your particular grill.  The idea is that your heat source is on the opposite side of the food your cooking.  So if your fish/meat is on the right side of your grill, you only use the burners on the left to actually heat the grill.  You want your grill to be around 400 degrees.  So for me that means keeping two burners on medium/high heat, with the third burner off.  Watch your thermometer (and more importantly how your cedar plank and salmon are doing) and adjust your burners accordingly.  For this dish, when in doubt lower the heat.  There is nothing worse than overcooked salmon and a charred plank.

I also let the salmon marinate for a few hours in a combination of soy, garlic, rosemary, honey and dijon.  The combination of the soy and honey creates a beautiful crust.   Salty, sweet and sticky.  But if you have a favorite marinade, use it.  Or you can always just use salt, pepper and a little olive oil.  The cedar plank imparts a great smoky flavor, so the marinating is just an extra flavor step.  Play around and have some fun.  You can also save a few tablespoons of the marinade to drizzle over the salmon after it’s been cooked (just make sure you separate it out BEFORE you pour it over your salmon.)

To serve this, I like to plate it family style over a bed of rice.  I used an heirloom forbidden rice on this particular day and it was so pretty.  The rice is a really dark purple and was such a beautiful contrast against the pink salmon.  But use whatever rice you like.  I find that the cedar planks aren’t always that “attractive” after coming off the grill, so I like to transfer the fish to another dish.

I love to serve family style whenever I can. Even things like fish.  I usually never make four/five separate pieces (way too much work for this momma).  Instead I make one large piece of fish and break it up at the table.  Let this feel a little more rustic by breaking the fish up into “portions” and let people help themselves.  My family loves to gather around a dig into this one.  I hope your family will too.

Cedar plank salmon
Prep time
Cook time
Total time
Serves: 4-5 servings
  • 1- 1½ pound filet of wild caught salmon
  • 1 cedar plank, soaked for at least one hour, up to four
  • ¼ cup of soy sauce
  • ¼ cup of honey
  • 2 tbsp. of olive oil
  • 1 tbsp. of dijon mustard
  • 3-4 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 2-3 rosemary sprigs, chopped
  1. In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, honey, olive oil, mustard, garlic and rosemary. Whisk to combine.
  2. Place salmon in a baking dish, and pour marinade over fish. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours (let salmon come to room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking).
  3. Heat grill to 400 degrees. When grill is hot, turn off one section of burners. Place the pre-soaked cedar plank on the section of the grill that is "off". Let the plank heat up for 2-3 minutes, then turn the plank over and place salmon on the hot side of the plank.
  4. Cook the salmon over indirect heat for 25-30 minutes.
  5. Remove the plank/salmon from the grill and allow the fish to rest for 5-10 minutes. Carefully transfer the fish to your serving dish, and/or plate over a bed of rice.

5 Tips for Acing an E-Commerce CTA

When you’re running an e-commerce brand, your website really has one central purpose: Yes, you want to bring new clients into your sales funnel and provide them with the education they need to make informed purchasing decisions, but at the end of the day your goal is to close the sale. You want people to click on a button in your online store and purchase one of the items you’re selling—period. You want your website to be an around-the-clock sales machine.

That’s what makes it so essential to have a good, strong call to action in place. All business websites need CTAs, which guide your leads through the sales funnel and increase the likelihood of them taking the desired action. For e-commerce sites, though, the CTA should be especially pointed and impactful: Click this button to buy our product NOW!

5 Tips for Killer CTAs

But of course, there are good CTAs and bad ones—and a feeble or unpersuasive CTA will hobble your sales and render your website impotent. So how do you ensure that your e-commerce site is working with high-impact CTAs? Consider these tips:

Make it stand out! The whole point of the call to action is to grab your reader’s attention and make it clear what step you want the reader to take next—so you can’t afford to have a CTA that blends in with the rest of the page, or that gets buried under the rest of your content. While it is possible to be too over-the-top, you do want to use larger fonts, bolds, italics, bright colors, compelling graphics, and/or attention-grabbing verbiage to draw the reader’s attention. The language of the CTA should spell out, in no uncertain terms, what you want the reader to do next.

Keep it short. Your readers want to see what you want them to do, and don’t necessarily want to wade through ten paragraphs of text to get to the point. Do you want them to click a button and buy your product? Tell them so—in a sentence or two at the very most.

Offer specifics and convey value. Just because you keep it short, that doesn’t mean you cannot offer some specifics. Adding specific offers and numbers is especially effective. Try something like: Save 30% by ordering NOW! Or, Claim your free gift card; buy today!

Place your CTAs strategically. You should have one on every page of the website—but beyond that, your placement may vary. Generally it is best to have a CTA visible on the page without the reader having to scroll—placing it either above the fold or in a sidebar can work well. Also, there’s no law against having multiple CTAs on one page, especially if the page is longer or more content-heavy.

Don’t forget to say thanks. The CTA/order page should ultimately take the reader to a Thank You page, which is an essential way for building brand loyalty. Never forget it!

For help crafting killer CTAs, of course, the Grammar Chic team is always on hand. Give us a call today at 803-831-7444, or visit http://www.grammarchic.net.

NOT-CA-20-091 - Notice of Intent to Publish a Funding Opportunity Announcement for Coordinating Center for New Cohorts to Assess Environmental Exposures and Cancer Risk (U24 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

Issued by

National Cancer Institute (NCI)

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) intends to promote a new initiative by publishing a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) to solicit applications for innovative scientific research to address knowledge gaps between environmental exposures and cancer etiology across diverse populations using new prospective cohort studies, which will be facilitated by a Coordinating Center that is expected to be awarded under a separate RFA (see the parallel notice of intent to publish announcement NOT-CA-20-091). The Cohorts for Environmental Exposures and Cancer Risk (CEECR) will provide scientific evidence related to environmental exposures and cancer risk. The CEECR will be supported through UG3/UH3 phased awards.

Approximately five new prospective cohorts are expected to be awarded. Applicants are encouraged to be innovative in their assessments of exposure as well as in study design. Techniques employed should be accurate, reproducible, and relevant to the proposed scientific aims. This initiative calls for research questions that can be addressed in both the short-term and longer-term with an observational study design.

This Notice is being provided to allow potential applicants time to develop responsive projects and meaningful collaborations.

The FOAs are expected to use the UG3/UH3 mechanism for CEECR (Clinical Trials Not Allowed).

The FOA is expected to be published in November 2020 with an expected application due date in January 2021.

Details of the planned FOAs are provided below.

Research Initiative Details

This Notice encourages investigators with expertise and insights into this area of environmental exposures and cancer risk to begin to consider applying for this new FOA.

In addition, collaborative investigations combining expertise in environmental epidemiology including environmental health science, exposure assessment tools and methods, cancer epidemiology, toxicology, molecular epidemiology, statistics, and community engagement will be encouraged, and these teams of investigators should also begin considering applying for this FOA.

Among the areas of research encouraged in this initiative are epidemiologic research examining the impact of environmental exposures on markers of carcinogenesis and cancer risk, as well as research designed to improve the translation of existing knowledge of strategies for the prevention of cancer.

This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOAs) solicits applications for:

  • Prospective observational research studies to address environmental exposures and cancer risk (UG3/UH3).

The new cohorts for environmental exposures and cancer risk (CEECR) (UG3/UH3 phased awards) will be supported by a Coordinating Center (U24; NOT-CA-20-091).

Idiot at the gym talking on the phone loudly on a headset

Ok, I know that they say that talking on a cell phone with the phone to your ear may be dangerous in terms of the possible, maybe, someday chance of giving us BRAIN CANCER.

That gave us, what, six months of talking on our headsets before the inconvenience of using a headset became greater than the off-chance possibility of our brains slowly melting?   Oh we love convenience.
But I’m not poopoo-ing our love of convenience.   And I AM also ADMIRING  people who still use headsets, risking looking like they’re talking to themselves as they amble down the sidewalk.   Good for you, Josh Healthconscious.

What I AM poopoo-ing is this clown at my gym who had an entire conversation on his phone/headset while (pretending to be) working out.

It was for at least FIFTEEN FUCKING MINUTES!

First of all,  if he must take a call,  stop working out and stand in an away spot.  At least do us that favor, toolbox.  And I know it wasn’t an important call,  because

2.  I was 30 feet BEHIND him and STILL HEARD the ENTIRE CONVERFUCKINGSATION!    I know that there was a bridal shower,  then someone was doing coke somewhere, and another person at some point went to Macy’s department store.

Come on,  now, chief.   Lower your volume,  the mic on your headset is less than a foot from your mouth, not across the room.

So now he’ll live brain-cancer free so he can annoy people through his long life.

Together Against Anti-Semitism: Local Leaders Unite To Condemn Hate

Political and faith leaders from across the area joined together over the past week to rebuke the spread of hatred and anti-Semitism after a man broke into a rabbi’s home and assaulted five people on the seventh night of Chanukah in Monsey, NY.

The Sid Jacobson Jewish Community Center (JCC) in East Hills hosted a community gathering on Friday, Dec. 3 to offer support to the area’s Jewish community and send a message that discrimination in all its forms will not be tolerated anywhere in Nassau County.

“I think it is more important than ever that we are together to say with one voice that we have zero tolerance for hate crimes, bias crimes and anti-Semitism in our county,” Nassau County Executive Laura Curran said at the gathering. “While crimes in many indices are going down, we have to be very careful about the fact that hate crimes are going the wrong way.”

Curran, who spoke in front of a projector screen emblazoned with the words “Hate Has No Home Here” in six languages, commended the work of the Nassau County Police Department (NCPD) in keeping the county’s communities safe. She then announced that county police will be increasing their patrols around churches, synagogues, mosques and other areas of worship, as well as cultural center’s for the counties minority communities, in order to ensure a tragedy like the attack at Monsey would not repeat itself in Nassau.

According to the county, there were 50 hate crimes, 30 of them anti-Semitic, reported in Nassau from January to late-September 2019. Those numbers represent a sharp increase from 2018, when the county had 34 reported incidents of hate crimes for the whole year.
Anti-Semitism most recently made headlines in the area when the Holocaust Memorial and Tolerance Center of Nassau County (HMTC) in Glen Cove was defaced with graffiti twice in two weeks, with spray-painted swastikas included in the second incident. In response, Curran and Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone announced the formation of a bi-county task force to combat hate crimes across Long Island.

The Town of North Hempstead has participated in the nationwide Not In Our Town project since 2017. Supervisor Judi Bosworth, the daughter of Holocaust survivors, reiterated the town’s commitment to standing against discrimination.

“We’re here to denounce those evil acts of violence and anti-Semitism,” Bosworth said. “We cannot be silent. Silence is a form of acquiescence, and history has taught us the consequences of silence when hate rears its ugly head. North Hempstead stands with all of you, united, in saying there’s no room for hateful speech or actions.”

Speakers throughout the event made reference again and again to the words of Martin Luther King while discussing how best to respond to hatred.

“We all share the same theory of ministry and work, the vision of a God who delivers,” First Baptist Church of Glen Cove Pastor Roger Williams said. “The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, in writing ‘A Letter From A Birmingham Jail,’ said such a poignant phrase. Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. It behooves all of us who have come from communities where we have known the threats of hate to come together today and speak to the specificity of this matter.”

Israeli men and women spending time stateside before conscription led the audience in song whose title translates to “The Song of Love,” first in Hebrew, then in English, as the hundreds gathered in attendance clapped to the rhythm and sang together.

Later that day, public figures and spiritual leaders again gathered in Great Neck for a unity shabbat service at Temple Beth El. New York State Senator Anna Kaplan organized the event, which featured village, town, state and county politicians from both Nassau and Suffolk, as well as Jewish spiritual leaders and Jonathan Greenblatt, the director of the Anti-Defamation League.

Kaplan was sent to the United States by her parents when the Iranian Revolution took hold of Persia and the country’s Jewish population endured heavy discrimination and abuse from the state. Coming to America as a refugee fleeing anti-Semitism, Kaplan said that seeing anti-Semitism rise in her new home has been particularly painful.

“As a Jewish refugee who came to this country fleeing anti-Semitic violence in my homeland, my heart aches over the outbreak of anti-Semitic violence taking place here in New York and across the country,” Kaplan said. “I invited my Senate colleagues and colleagues from across government and public service to join me in prayer as a powerful display of unity and support for Jewish New Yorkers, and as a demonstration of solidarity in combating the crisis of anti-Semitism in every community.”

The following morning, Kaplan reflected that “it’s so critical that we all stand together and speak out at every opportunity to combat the crisis of anti-Semitism and hatred, and last night’s event was an important moment of unity, strength and support that is so desperately needed during this difficult time.”

In addition to the events already held, a march against anti-Semitism will be held in Mineola on Sunday, Jan. 12. The march will begin at 3 p.m. in front of the Theodore Roosevelt Executive and Legislative Building at 1550 Franklin Ave.

DECEMBER WEEK 1- Organic farming, repurposing and waste management

As we move further towards the end of the year the real December heat is building up. Lucky for us we had a little rain over the Full Moon period but now it looks once again to be hot and dry. Fingers crossed we will get a little more rain in the next weeks.

As the weather dries we have started to see some of the fruit trees beginning to ripen their fruits. This is a good time of year for anyone with Mango, Banana, Papaya, Oranges, Lime trees. Fruit like the Mangos in the crate below can bring in between Ksh 15 and 25 per piece depending on the size. For anyone looking to start farming it is advisable to plant lots of fruit trees early on during the start of the rains.

Some of the items in the photos above, Bananas, Mango, Passion Fruit, Papaya, Pineapple, Tomatoes, Eggplant, Cherry Tomatoes, Eggs, Basil, Dill, Oregano, Rucola, Lettuce, Mint, Thyme, Parsley and Edible flowers for garnishing the dishes at the Nomad Beach Bar and Restaurant.

Since our first posts about some of these ongoing projects those of you who are following may notice quite a big difference in some of these photos. Above left we have a very basic example of 'REPURPOSING' on the farm. We have a new generation Passion Fruit trying to find a place to climb. Rather than spend time and energy to make a Trellis for this little Passion we just used a broken electric power supply cable.. which the Passion Fruit will now climb as it reaches into the tree nearby.

One of the repurposed Jacuzzis on the Nomad farm showing the success possible in growing notoriously difficult Basil. We are constantly fighting with pests here but with the raised bed, care and the 'Organic Army' of pest controllers we have done ok.

Above on the left one can see how we have used some parts of the 'husk' of Coconut trees to act as mulch to lower the rate moisture is evaporated from the soil and also to keep the soil temperature down in these hot months to come. Soil that gets too hot can damage or kill your crops as well as any of the positive microorganisms in the soil. Protect and nurture your soil! (Above right) this was a recent mornings 'harvest' of Black soldier fly larvae, or 'BSF' for anyone trying to avoid a tongue twister. These guys went to the Tilapia fish on that morning, some days they go to the Chickens.

In a recent post on waste management we described how we had been digging and raking through 'waste' sand and soil to try to remove any larger non-biodegradable items, we then tried to see if this soil which we considered to be mainly compost (from decomposed timber) with small flakes of micro plastics could be useful to grow anything. We went with sunflowers and cucumbers which then germinated (Above Left side) and then began to grow healthy (Above Right Side)

One of the other ongoing projects seen above is the repurposing of tens of thousands of glass bottles from The Sands at Nomad hotel and The Nomad Beach Bar. These bottles are being used as building blocks in structures which, when finished will be quite a sight to see.

As REPURPOSING goes, this Passion Fruit above was lucky enough to have a trellis built for it. If you look closely you will notice the fibre glass poles which were the supports for Windsurfer sails before they were broken or worn.. at least they didn't become trash.

Onto Waste Management and following on from our last post where we had been clearing the workshop areas and raking through dirt to remove waste.
We already have colour coded separation bins throughout the hotel and restaurant but we found it necessary to have one central location where already separated 'waste' items could be stored before it is transported to various locations for recycling or repurposing etc. NB- This system's set up is necessary to implement with training for staff members as it is often not clear what constitutes Paper, Plastics or Other waste.

Above and below we have some photos from this past week's HDPE plastic recycling. Plastic bottle tops are collected from used bottles or even off the beach (below), these are cleaned, separated according to colour, dried and then shredded. To see some of the results of this 'waste' being recycled visit the Marine Centre at The Sands at Nomad any day between 3 and 5pm. Also located at the Marine centre is the Conservation Education Society and Diani Turtle Watch.

Omega centre

These are the words that resounded throughout my stay at Omega, in Rhinebeck, New York: “A building with a soul”.

On Friday, October 12, 2010, I was honoured to be present at the awards ceremony where Omega became the first organization in the world to receive both LEED© Platinum and Living Building Challenge™ certification for the Omega Center for Sustainable Living. It breaks the way to a new era in sustainable design. If the soul was put in the building it would not be difficult for one to guess who would have been part of the team accomplishing this very tedious and completely new way of green design and construction. Although the building itself has left a lasting impression on me, more so I won’t forget the energy and sheer dedication seen in each and every one of the team members involved in this project. Even though this building has been completed and the award received by Skip Backus, CEO at Omega, I believe the team responsible will outlive the project by multiples and will lead the way, following the icebreaker that the OSCL has caused in sustainable design.

We have all seen, and continue to see, an increase in awareness around sustainable design processes. It seems that throughout his many years of experience, Bob Berkebile, Principal at BNIM has figured it out. It is not a designer, an architect, or an engineer that is going to succeed on the long road back to sustainable living. It calls for a shift in every level, a collaborative experience, a complete re-thinking of how we do things today!

Related:   The Arcology: A Human Hive as a Green Building Trend

As much as I was thrilled to see the progress we made, I was disgusted by how we neglected to pay attention to what is our most important resource: our environment. How is it possible that we have been so blind to what is going on around us and need “icebreaker” examples to create change? We need to be hit head-on in order to change, we need to see our resources deplete, we need to see billions of dollars spent on research to be convinced of the fact that the natural system created and existent in our environment actually makes sense.

We need to see that everything that we are given on earth is there to help us but we continue to break it down! They say “he who has the gold, rules” but, it’s comforting to know that our environment will win this battle.

The phrase “Nobody knows as much as everyone…” is true, to compliment that I would add that everyone can do so much more then anyone. Omega is giving us the “yes we can”, now all we need to do is follow suit and say “yes we will”. It does not have to mean re-constructing our homes, or investing tens of thousands of dollars. It means we all need to stop and listen to what we hear going on around us.

As related to the OCSL, Skip Backus mentioned in our tour that it is “as if the building is alive; it educates us.” As much as that is a great feeling, in fact it is our environment that is very alive and educating us every day. Let’s stop getting in the way and start by all making an impact with our capacity! In this case, particular actions speak louder than words. Put your heart into your existing home, it is the only way we can see change! It is not about lessening our impact; it’s about re-thinking our impact all together. Don’t waste less, but don’t waste at all!

Bridgend Against the Bedroom Tax

The inaugural meeting was held last night with Bridgend Greens and Plaid Cymru to the fore. Probably a bit too left wing for local Labour people.

Jamie Insole is an excellent co-ordinator for similar groups across South wales and along with seasoned campaigner, Len Arthur (PAAA) we had a productive meeting agreeing targets areas and strategy. I expect Bridgend Greens to be to the fore as the main target area will be Bettws – an area we know well and have excellent activists in (take a bow Gareth and Delyth!)

I will be meeting up them and booking a date in the Life Centre for a public meeting in early October.

Given the UN housing expert’s perspective ( and Labours failure to commit to reversing atrocious policy if they ever get back in power, it is clearly time for us to take a stand.

We will be inviting the UN Rapporteur at the centre of the controversy to visit South Wales on her next visit.

Watch this for updates and what you can do to help.

In In the News, Project Updates

The Greenville Housing Fund is in the planning stages for almost 400 affordable housing units in the area surrounding Unity Park, which was recently covered in an article in the Greenville Journal.  A recent feasibility study has helped us to more precisely identify the trajectory of affordable housing development in Southernside.  From this feasibility study, we hope to have a better understanding of how the creation of Unity Park will affect the future of its neighboring areas and the people who live there.  We hope that the park benefits all people, and that we can contribute to its full success in meaningful ways.

After seeing a handful of marketers miss the mark during the early phases of the COVID-19 pandemic, I was inspired by a LinkedIn post to write an article around brands that rose to the occasion in times of crises – and those who've failed miserably by either associating themselves in some way or outright failing to pivot at a sensitive time.
There's lots to be learned when it comes to getting it right. It's a delicate dance but when you do it well, it can win priceless amounts of good faith and earned media. Or it can draw a ton of negative attention your way.
Do you remember any brands who've gotten it right or wrong in the past? If so, feel free to reach out using the contact form above.

Grindhouse Releasing Presents Umberto Lenzi’s THE TOUGH ONES

HOLLYWOOD, Calif. – Grindhouse Releasing is proud to announce its long-awaited special edition Blu-ray release of Umberto Lenzi’s THE TOUGH ONES (ROMA A MANO ARMATA). The deluxe 3-disc set arrives in stores on July 9, 2019.

Buy THE TOUGH ONES on Blu-Ray from Grindhouse Releasing

Lenzi, the legendary director of CANNIBAL FEROX, kicked off the Italian police film craze with this hyper-kinetic, ultra-violent, brain-blasting action thriller. Maurizio Meril stars as an Italian DIRTY HARRY, punching and shooting his way through the sleazy drug, sex and crime infested cesspool of mid-’70s Rome, on the trail of a sadistic, machine gun-toting hunchback, played by Tomas Milian (star of THE BIG GUNDOWN).

Hailed as “one of the most gonzo, over-the-top Euro crime films you’ll ever see” (American Cinematheque), THE TOUGH ONES has been one of Grindhouse Releasing’s most requested titles for many years. Company founder Sage Stallone originally acquired the film during a trip to Italy in 1996.

“THE TOUGH ONES was a very favorite of my late partner Sage Stallone,” says Grindhouse Releasing co-founder Bob Murawski, the Academy Award-winning film editor of THE HURT LOCKER, Sam Rami’s SPIDER-MAN 1, 2, & 3, and Orson Welles’ THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WIND. “Sage absolutely loved this movie and wanted everyone to see it. Our friend Umberto Lenzi was extremely proud of this film and was overjoyed when he heard that we had acquired it. As was Tomas Milian. I’m sorry they are not here to see this deluxe edition release.”

Boasting a state-of-the-art 4K transfer of Lenzi‘s uncensored director’s cut, the new Grindhouse Releasing edition of THE TOUGH ONES includes an incredible slate of special features:

– Original UNRATED, UNCENSORED director’s cut
– Mastered in eye-popping 4K resolution for maximum detail and impact
– Optional Italian language soundtrack with optional English subtitles
– Audio commentary by Mike Malloy, director of EUROCRIME!
– Brand new, in-depth interviews with director Umberto Lenzi, actors Tomas Milian, Maria Rosaria Omaggio, Sandra Cardini, Maria Rosaria Riuzzi and Corrado Solari, screenwriter Dardano Sacchetti, and composer Franco Micalizzi
– Special tribute to Marizo Merli with appearances by Enzo Castellari and Ruggero Deodato
– Vintage VHS intro by cult movie superstar Sybil Danning!
– Original international theatrical trailer
– Liner notes by Italian crime film expert Roberto Curti
– Deluxe embossed slip cover
– BONUS CD – original soundtrack album by Franco Micalizzi – newly remastered in stunning 24 bit/192khz sound from the original master tapes

Custom 30-Caliber Metal Bullet Pen – Strictly Limited to 2500 Units!

“One of the most gonzo, over-the-top Euro crime films you’ll ever see.”
– American Cinematheque

“Containing little idealism and much violence for the sake of violence…director Umberto Lenzi keeps his action, cast and cameras moving along at a fast clip.”
– Variety

“The quintessential ‘Polizieschi’ movie. It has all the ingredients necessary – Alfa Romeo cars, stereotypical bad guys, angry ‘beat the system’ cops and lashings of over the top violence.”
– Jonny Redman, LoveLockandLoad

“OUTSTANDING…Maurizio Merli is Inspector Tanzi, a mega-mustached cop who’s forced to square off with Tomas Milian, a psychotic cripple appropriately nicknamed The Hunchback. Along the way, there’s plenty of innocents getting mowed down with machine guns, low-level criminals having their faces beaten in, incredibly energetic car chases, and so much more – all set to a wonderful score by Franco Micalizzi. A giant hit in its native Italy, it’s a wild slice of Eurotrash, showcasing Lenzi at his best, and a perfect starting place for the genre if you’re unfamiliar. You simply can’t go wrong!”
– Bruce Holecheck, Cinema Arcana

– Spectacular new cover painting by renowned Los Angeles cult artist Dave Lebow

“Mind-bending…with Duke Mitchell’s cult following steadily building on what seems to be a daily basis, one can only wonder how far and wide the legacy of this entertainment jack of all trades will go.” – Nathaniel Thompson, TCM Underground

“Duke Mitchell delivers an eccentric, impassioned, unpredictable performance unlike anything else ever committed to film. You’ve never seen another gangster movie like this.”- Nathaniel Thompson, Mondo-Digital

“The rare film that is BETTER than its trailer… a great forgotten gem.” – Josh Hurtado, TWITCHFILM

“A virtual torrent of bloodshed… This makes the GODFATHER movies look like Sunday school picnic outings!” – LAS VEGAS SUN

Watch for Grindhouse Releasing’s Blu-ray release of Lucio Fulci’s THE BEYOND, coming February 10, 2015! And stay tuned for details on the long-awaited Blu-ray and DVD release of Duke Mitchell’s GONE WITH THE POPE!

School Breakfast Program

Our partners going above and beyond to help student nutrition programs

It’s an ironic reality: the school programs that provide nutritious meals for children are going hungry themselves. Many programs lack the funds to provide meals for the growing number of students, to serve healthy menu items or to operate every day during the school year. One of the best ways our industry can help funding-strapped student nutrition programs is by offering healthy food for less than they’d pay to purchase these items themselves.

With the generous cooperation of many of our retailer and manufacturer partners, our School Breakfast Program helps student nutrition programs purchase healthy food for children at reduced costs. A number of Grocery Foundation retailers as well as food, beverage and consumer goods companies all agree to forgo any profit they’d make and as such, offer products to these programs at a significant discount.

The result? The School Breakfast Program has delivered $5M in savings to student nutrition programs. That figure represents an additional 2.5M healthy meals provided to kids across Canada!

Finding novel ways to stretch every penny is a daily reality for those community members and volunteers trying to ensure that no child starts the day without a healthy breakfast. We absolutely rely on The Grocery Foundation and its partners to help! In 2019, with their support, local student nutrition programs were able to serve 100,000 more healthy breakfasts to children in Toronto alone. The impact of The Grocery Foundations work is huge!

Catherine Parsonage Chair, Student Nutrition Ontario and President of the Toronto Foundation for Student Success.

Special Thanks

Thank you to Purolator for delivering vouchers to schools.
