Quote
One of the things I would do if I were President is to move the major cabinet departments out of the DC area. Put the DoD in Dallas, for example. Put Energy (if I couldn't get rid of it) in Houston, Put Agriculture in Omaha, etc. Where the center of those industries are found. Basically, to break up the swamp into littler pieces that would make it harder to operate. Unfortunatley, it all revolves around Congress for legislation. Congress will NEVER vote itself term limits or any real effective anti-bribery laws (look at the fortunes that are made by congressmen and senators on government wages). but you can increase the cost and also the difficulty factor of the K-Street lobbyists by E.O. . Lockheed-Martin probably spends more money in Washington than it does anywhere else.

Simple, beautiful and cool: Terrariums are back in style
At a swarmed, downtown bar one late Saturday night, the lights were diminish, hip-bounce music played and most everybody had a drink close by. The bar itself was secured with succulents, and the tabletops with accessories like paintbrushes, plastic spoons and grower of fertilized soil. The group was here to take in the specialty of terrarium building. "Presently, these succulents are difficult to murder, I guarantee," said Lindsay Webber, the fizzing 28-year-old educator of the class on terrariums. "You'll just need to water them once like clockwork or thereabouts, and they just need a squirt or two of water."
The two-hour lesson, called Plant Nite, was a piece of a program that began in Boston in 2015 and has spread to 32 states and Canada. It's worked by an organization called Paint Nite that profits by the do-it-without anyone else's help development and a customer base willing to pay for an affair —, for example, an introduction on building terrariums.
These smaller than expected scenes are exemplified in holders made of blown glass, luxurious mud pots or an assortment of different materials. "I began getting into cultivating a couple of years prior, and that is the point at which I saw these things — terrariums — getting famous," said Diandra Escamilla, a 28-year-old Boston occupant who went to Plant Nite. "I was seeing them all over, via web-based networking media — my companions began having them, so I began to get intrigued." Terrariums are hot. Numerous significant retailers – î not simply cultivating stores like Home Depot — are offering them. Some IKEA and West Elm stores, for example, have offered manufacture your-own units loaded with electric-hued rocks, modest creature dolls, greenery and well known succulents – î healthy plants adjusted to live with minimal light or watering. In like manner, terrariums have a committed after on numerous online networking sites, for example, Pinterest, Twitter and Facebook, where plant-sweethearts trade pictures, thoughts and conclusions of the little glass gardens.
The most recent terrarium slant took off in the start of the decade, as per Maria Colletti, creator of "Terrariums – î Gardens Under Glass: Designing, Creating, and Planting Modern Indoor Gardens" (Cool Springs Press, 2015). "Everybody figured it would be a stage and even sprinkle away," Colletti said. That wasn't the situation. Colletti, who shows classes on terrarium working through the New York Botanical Garden's grown-up training division, said terrariums' conveyability and low upkeep makes them greenery backbones that are here for the whole deal. "What could be better for an office or home to have a touch of nature where we see our smaller than expected green world each day of our lives?" she said. "As our electronic computerized world's prerequisites increment, terrariums help us to remember the bigger ponder of the planet we live on — Earth." Terrariums go back in any event to the mid nineteenth century. They delighted in a popular culture minute in the 1970s, said Megan George, creator of "Current Terrarium Studio: Design and Build Custom Landscapes with Succulents, Air Plants and the sky is the limit from there" (Fons and Porter, 2015). George and her mom possess a Durham, N.C., plant shop called Zen Succulent, where clients can share in a DIY terrarium bar. The present terrariums are unique, she said. "The terrariums in the 1970s were in substantial globes that sat on the floor – î they may have an expansive base to it," George said. "Individuals are living in littler spaces now and they need something that fits on the tabletop; something that additionally capacities as stylistic layout." For Swetha Ramachandran, 28, of Boston, who went to Plant Nite, a terrarium's allure is straightforward. "They're charming," she stated, unassumingly. "What's more, I like the holders they come in."

Ke and Co. Experience Bugz Playpark
9:30 on Saturday morning saw me and my three nephews heading out to Bugz Playpark in the Cape Garden Centre in Kraaifontein. The largest playpark in the Western Cape, I just didn’t realise how big Bugz actually was – and just how much there is to keep the little ones entertained. Once they were kitted out with their VIP wristbands, which includes the entrance fee and unlimited token rides, we headed in and settled in at one of the many, many picnic tables to come up with a gameplan for the day.
Things We Loved About Bugz: No.1
There is so much seating available around the park. There are picnic tables and log seats, and these cute, colourful little round seats dotted around the grass – plenty of choice for tired parents and kids who need a breather between all the excitement. They’ve also recently replaced all of their real grass with synthetic Easigrass, which makes the ground a comfortable place to sit too. It looks amazing too.
We decided to tackle the playpark in a somewhat orderly fashion – not an easy task when you have three kids with you, all of them under the age of 10. They were so excited they didn’t even know what to do with themselves, and this brings me to another thing I loved about Bugz.
Things We Loved About Bugz: No.2
The staff are very visible, very friendly and very informative. Everywhere you turn, there is a staff member, watching the kids or monitoring the rides. You can tell that they love working with kids, and aren’t just there for show. They interact with the children, keep them safe (for instance, on the horse swing, one of my nephews was told repeatedly to sit still – they do their best to ensure the children are safe on the rides) and basically just make you feel secure in the fact that your kids are in good hands.
——————-
In the spirit of orderly fashion, we took the kids on the first ride we saw – the Worm Train. Suitable for ages 3 – 10, my youngest nephew could barely sit still long enough for the ride operator to strap him in.
Though we tried to keep the kids dry until nearer the end of the day, the next ride they saw was the paddle boats, andhave you ever tried to keep kids away from something they really, really want to do, especially when it involves water? The water is only about shin-deep for adults, but the kids had a great time. They have to row the boats with little hands inside the boat, and it’s great fun. There’s plenty of supervision, and someone to help the kids in and out of the boats.
Later in the day, they also rope off a section of the pool to create a splash pool, which is great when the weather is really warm.
After the paddle boats, we headed off to the zip swing. What’s cool about this ride is that how fast the kids go is totally dependent on how hard their parents push – with enough speed, they get this awesome little bounce near the end, before swinging all the way back. It’s a lot of fun for the kids, and parents don’t have to worry, because it’s not too high off the ground.
After the swing, we headed to the Toddler Tractors and African muscle carts, which was an experience for the adults too. One of my nephews was on the cart behind another little girl who seemed to be having a tough time going fast enough – so we got to push them all around the track. Exercise for the whole family!
Things We Loved About Bugz: No.3
The facilities are well-adapted for little kids. Because the park is aimed at kids between the ages of 2 and 10, all of the rides are very safe and ideal for the littler little ones.
Next up was Megan’s Petting Farm. A mobile petting zoo, Megan’s is at Bugz over weekends, public holidays and school holidays, and they set up with a gazebo, all their animals – including Harry the Sheep, the goats Netta and Hilda, bunnies, geese, ducks, chickens and even some tortoises.
Again, I have to give a big round of applause to the staff, who are so friendly and helpful and interactive. Rather than just standing around, they really interact with the kids, giving them animals to hold and showing them the correct way to hold them, making sure they’re not flipping the tortoises onto their backs, etc. Really awesome.
Though it’s R10 for the children to enter, its free for parents to go in with their kids.
Trying to get them away from the animals was a bit of a trial, but eventually the lure of the other rides was too much, and they dragged us off to the jumping castle. Calling it a jumping castle is wrong, though. This is not just a jumping castle. It’s a jumping obstacle course. I’m not gonna lie and say that I wasn’t sad that I couldn’t get in there too. There are slides and secret chambers and the entire thing is shaped like a giant robot. It’s awesome.
Next to the castle is a new addition to Bugz – a mud play area. Kids love mud.
Things We Loved About Bugz: No.4
There is something for every child to do at Bugz. Whether they’re outdoorsy and adventurous, or quiet, or like to get dirty, or they’re creative, or they just like to play on their own in the sand, there is an activity to keep them entertained.
Besides the token rides for the more adventurous kids, like horse-riding and horse swings, quad-biking or peddle bikes, there are also many, many jungle gyms and climbing nets, sand pits, dino swings, slides and various play equipment to crawl under or climb over. There are also cute play areas with play houses, a tree house and even a castle for the kids to play in when there’s not a party in progress.
Indoors, there’s also sandart, and face-painting and, my absolute favourite, a mini Masterchef type kitchen where they can do Cake Boss, or Masterchef and practice their baking, decorating and food creation skills.
After the jumping castle, we headed off to the horse-swing – the quintessential carnival ride. Parents are allowed to ride with their kids, especially if their child is too small to ride safely. The kids really loved this one.
Right next to the swing horses are the quad bikes. Man-sized quad bikes. Quad bikes that require a licensed driver. Totally amazing, and the kids get so excited when they see this. Though not included in the VIP package, it’s very exciting for both kids and adults. Who doesn’t like a good quad-bike ride? Which reminds me.
There are also real horses. I was very jealous that I couldn’t go for a horse ride.
Things We Loved About Bugz: No.5
Bugz is not just fun for the kids. It’s really fun for the parents and the whole family. There are plenty of seating options dotted around the park, there is shade everywhere – lots of trees, and even shade-cloths over some of the activities, and the parents can get involved in a lot of the activities.
There were four adults with our little group, including their parents, their grandmother and me – and while the kids were doing their thing, we sat around chatting about how awesome the park was. It’s a beautiful place, and the older family members can really get involved in a lot the activities.
——————-
After the swing horses, we really couldn’t keep the kids away from the water anymore, so we headed off to one of the three water slides. Two of the slides are for kids between the ages of about 3 and 10, except for the speed slide which is available for anyone up to the age of 80.
The first slide we went to was almost like a jumping castle, and the kids didn’t seem to want to leave. By this time, we were quite hungry, so we headed off to procure some toasted sandwiches, hot dogs and cool drink.
Things We Loved About Bugz: No.6
There are many different places to get food. Indoors, there’s a cafe-type deal with a range of foods, from burgers and hotdogs to toasted sandwiches, slap chips and bacon and egg baps. There’s also a snack-shack outside, that offers Halaal foods. Besides being delicious, and totally generously sized (I was actually quite shocked when I saw the size of the bacon and egg baps. For only R18, I wouldn’t mind going there for lunch more often). The toasted sandwiches are also triple-decker, meaning excellent value for money.
Aside from regular food, they also have a lot of candy. A lot.
By the time it got to lunch, the kids were so knackered they could barely keep their eyes open, which is another awesome thing about Bugz. You know that you won’t have a trouble getting your kids to take an afternoon nap when they get home.
Most of the activities are powered by the kid’s own steam, like the African muscle bikes, which they have to pedal with their arms, or the paddle boats or toddler tractors. There are even push-bikes at the entrance, so that kids can traverse the park on wheels.
Bugz is not just outdoors though. No, no, no. Besides for all of the activities outdoors, there is also a massive indoor section, where kids can play when it’s too hot (or too cold) to play outside. Inside a massive tent, the indoor play area features even more jungle gyms, slides and swings, face painting and sand-art, eight different party venues, and humidifiers/misters to keep the entire place cool.
Indoors is also where many of the themed party venues are, with themes ranging from Disney Princess to aSparklz Makeover party, Barnyard, Construction and so many more. What’s really awesome about parties at Bugz is their motto of “sit back and relax; we take care of everything”. The staff at Bugz take care of all the decorating, setup and catering, leaving parents nothing more to do than show up and watch their kids have a blast.
When we were there, they’d set up for a Sparklz Makeover party and I was very impressed. The makeover party includes a choice of makeover, either Pretty princess or Rock chick or Dazzling diva, which includes hair, nails and make-up and food (canapes, polka dot popcorn and pink fizz) as well as Before and After photos. It really made me wish I had a niece, or that I was young enough to attend kiddies birthday parties as something other than the photographer.
Bugz offers its own party shop, where parents can by everything from Cupcake Toppers and balloons, to themed plates, party bags and invitations. When I was browsing through the shop, I decided that even I wouldn’t mind having a party there. I may be 25, but I definitely wouldn’t mind a Disney Princess party.
In Conclusion
I can’t praise Bugz highly enough. For an hour after leaving, my sister and I gushed about how amazing everything was – from the amazing staff to the cleanliness of the facilities and just how much there was to do. Parents will love all the shade, and the fact that you can’t turn your head without seeing a staff member. Not only does it provide peace of mind with regards to safety, but you know your kids are having a blast.
We’ll definitely be going back to Bugz when the school holidays come around. Everything was excellent, and I can’t think of a single thing I would change. You can tell that the staff and owners at Bugz really care about the kids, and go out of their way to create a fun, stimulating and colourful environment – and they’re always adding new and exciting activities, like the mud play area.
If I had to give the park a rating out of 10, they’d get a 20. When my nephews got home, they wouldn’t stop going on about it, and asking when we’d go back. The whole family had an awesome time, and the other grandparents have already booked another outing.
Bugz definitely gets a thumbs up from me.

PicoBrew's fantasy of a homebrew apparatus is not as doltish as it sounds Be that as it may, "set it and overlook it" homebrewing is as yet figuring itself out.
Last month, my significant other and I were preparing to move to another city, and, as regularly happens when you make huge moves, the place was in shambles. Rooms were flipped around, pivotal household items were sold far too far ahead of time of our turn (who needs a kitchen table at any rate?), and all that we'd at any point possessed was looked at fundamentally for the carport deal hacking piece. Amidst the turmoil, I got a thump on my entryway from the UPS fellow.
"Hold up ideal here," he said energetically over the lethal fury my puppy was communicating from behind the entryway. I watched, heart sinking, as he pulled five goliath boxes from his truck, one of which was unfavorably set apart "More than 70 POUNDS." He wheeled them over to my front strides on a dolly.
"There must be some misstep," I challenged.
"You're Megan Geuss right?"
Presently was not the ideal opportunity for existential quibbling. I marked the person's receipt gadget.
"Are you beginning a bottling works or something?" he inquired. I gazed upward and I saw the logo "PicoBrew Zymatic" in favor of the container. It occurred to me this was the audit unit I asked for an entire seven months back from an organization guaranteeing they had a machine that could transform preparing lager into an errand as straightforward as blending espresso. Some way or another at the time I had imagined something substantially littler and lighter.I pulled the cases up the stairs one by one into a house officially loaded with boxes and other poop we were attempting to free ourselves of. I considered simply sending the crates back to PicoBrew. Would I even have the space to set this up? Would I have room schedule-wise to do an audit? To clear something up, I opened the principal, heaviest box. Wedged in plastic wrap and a few bits of styrofoam, I could see a silver box about the measure of an old 20-inch CRT TV. Interest showed signs of improvement of me and I raised out it gradually. It resembled a little satellite.
I ought to specify that I have some involvement with brew. Despite the fact that I'm not a specialist, I worked at a mix bar quite a long while prior and took a brew class. I met my better half at said mix bar, and he went ahead to end up noticeably the general supervisor of it, so brew has been a consistent in our lives. I have homed mix various brews, some of which turned out tasting dreadful and some of which turned out tasting truly great. I know how to homebrew the modest, troublesome way, so I figured I ought to have the capacity to do it the simple, costly way.
Be that as it may, before we plunge into the subtle elements of the Zymatic, how about we build up why you'd need to mix your own particular lager. Blending lager is trivial and tedious to a few, so burning through cash on an apparatus like the PicoBrew Zymatic would be similarly (or more) silly and imbecilic to those individuals. My partners and I concur that as a rule, it's ideal to simply purchase a lager that another person made than to squander your time attempting to mix your own particular brew if your main objective is productivity. Regardless of the possibility that the grain and jumps are moderately shoddy, it's a tedious exercise with a major open door cost.But blending lager is a fun, shrewd thing to do. It resembles weaving. Loads of individuals sew scarfs and sweaters despite the fact that they could most likely go out and purchase a less expensive/less-tedious weave scarf or sweater at Kohl's or something. They do it since it gives them pride to make something and they appreciate the dreary and thorough nature of the specialty. Actually, I detest sewing, however I like blending lager and composing and cooking and sewing and other little diversion like things for a similar reason individuals like weaving. Doing these things doesn't generally spare me cash (albeit here and there it does) and it positively never spares personal time. I get a kick out of the chance to do them in any case.
At a MSRP of $2,000, the PicoBrew Zymatic is certainly for the sort of specialist brewers who have sharpened their art to the point where they're ridiculously great at it. Possibly those brewers need to take things to the following level and do some fast formula prototyping before they lease access to big-time bottling works hardware. Obviously, if could likewise work for the easygoing specialist who has a huge amount of extra cash since it's not a confounded machine to work. Actually, for all the containers and parts, setup was shockingly simple and snappy (the length of you read the guidelines).
You get a major box with the Zymatic and another huge box with every one of the segments you use for preparing. Another enormous box contains a 5-gallon barrel that you'll have to connect to the Zymatic. PicoBrew likewise sent us some packaging hardware and pre-bundled fixings to make a formula called "Party Porter," which I looked at with some distrust. (I don't think about you, however I've lived many years on this Earth by not always drinking anything named "Party Porter.")Another huge segment of working with the Zymatic is its online interface. When I got the equipment set up I connected an Ethernet link to the machine and swung to my tablet to look at PicoBrew's site. It was frictionless to set up a PicoBrew profile and match up my Zymatic to it.
The enchantment of the Zymatic is that you can choose from many formulas, go to the home-mix store, get the vital fixings, get back home, toss the fixings into the Zymatic, match up the formula to your PicoBrew from the site... furthermore, in four hours you have a decent wort to pitch your yeast into. Then again, you can manufacture your own formulas and match up those to the Zymatic. (Or, on the other hand, you can even utilize it as a sous vide machine.)The first clump
In the wake of appending the Zymatic to the barrel loaded with water and running a wash cycle, I chose to mix the Party Porter. It was straightforward. Open up the unmistakable plastic drawer. Grain goes in the huge squash compartment, bounces go in a trap in one of the little extra compartments. Tenderly drive the drawer into the Zymatic, being watchful of any distending tubing. Turn the Zymatic on and select the formula you've matched up to your hardware.After that, you can relax for four hours. I viewed a film and sorted books as the Zymatic murmured in the other room. For better or for more awful, there was no interminable mixing, no compelling reason to take temperatures. Then again, there was no pleasant environment as you imparted a lager to the companion who was helping you deal with the clock, either.
At the point when the Zymatic was done doing its thing, it beeped to tell me. The barrel was presently loaded with rich, caramel-noticing pre-lager. You have to sit tight for a bit for the wort to chill off before pitching the yeast so I fixed the barrel and left it overnight.
When I woke up the following morning, I cleaned a goliath carboy we had around the house and poured the lager from the barrel to that. I did this to make sure I could re-utilize the barrel for a moment formula, however hypothetically you can leave your lager in the barrel and let it mature there. I pitched the yeast into the carboy and fixed it with a three-piece air trap.
I put the carboy in a crate and left it in the coolest storage room I could discover. At that point, I needed to sit tight two weeks or so for the aging to occur.
The second cluster
I needed to make a moment lager to perceive that it was so natural to do when PicoBrew did exclude the majority of the fixings. I picked a "Nuclear Amber" formula that had been put together by another client. (Goodness, did I specify you can impart your formulas to other PicoBrew clients? Indeed, you can. What's more, others can rate the formulas. In case you're feeling the loss of the pleasant way of conventional blending, the social side of PicoBrew may have the capacity to trade that for you.)I made my rundown and drove out to HopTech in Dublin, CA, an amazing and cordial outlet center where I discovered every one of the grains I required. I found a sales representative to get the three sorts of bounces I would require from their cooler and began conversing with him about PicoBrew's Zymatic.
He let me know the Zymatic is making a considerable measure of discussion in the blending scene at this moment—is it truly homebrewing in case you're not doing the fermenting yourself? Lager rivalries have reflected whether to fugitive passages made in a PicoBrew, he said. What's more, at $2,000, it's on the top of the line similar to across the board blending gadgets, he included. The man revealed to us HopTech was offering a less expensive preparing gadget called the GrainFather, which keeps running about $900 and robotizes the bubbling procedure in a way that is like the Zymatic.
Still, the HopTech specialist said the Zymatic has demonstrated famous with beginner brewers who need to up their diversion. With the Zymatic, you can test an assortment of formulas rapidly and choose which is best before you attempt to make a greater bunch to offer.
I purchased my fixings and took them home. The procedure was precisely the same as it was for the principal lager, yet this time there were three separate bounce increases, which were measured into three diverse extra compartments. The Zymatic empties bubbling squash into the extra compartments, which makes a falling impact that permits the Zymatic to "time" each bubble.
At the point when the procedure was done, I cleared out the wort in the 5-gallon barrel and set it alongside the main cluster of beer.The heatwave
Poor me, dear peruser, for not long after I contributed the yeast both brews, a monstrous heatwave struck the Bay Area, rendering our old upstairs loft a broiler for four days in a row. While our lounge room was stuck at 90 degrees Fahrenheit at 10pm around evening time, I attempted to keep our brew cool without moving it excessively. (Old homes in the Bay Area once in a while have aerating and cooling since temperatures in the 90s happen just on more than one occasion a year.) We couldn't keep it outside (despite the fact that any individual who will take a 40lb carboy loaded with homebrew presumably merits it), we couldn't keep it in the tiled lavatory (generally an exceptionally cool place, which by one means or another additionally turned into a broiler). My exclusive arrangement was to attempt to protect our "coolest" storage room with dozing sacks to attempt to keep the warmth out amid the day.

Megan Littler-Walk it off One of those special gems of dance I’ve come across on yt. Now I have never heard of her studio but I recognize one of the choreographers. This dance is just so breathtaking and I’ve watched other videos of Megan’s dancing and she dances so effortlessly. I heard she was in Teen Beach Movie and looked it up and sure enough I recognized her! It’s always nice to see what kind of project dancers do once they have surpassed competing. Wish more of her solos were up online but for now I shall just enjoy what is on yt.
