game routines Cheap MLB Jerseys Online
If you watch the professional athletes they all have routines whether it is pre-game routines Cheap MLB Jerseys Online , during the game or post game routines. Some will say that they are superstitions but there is a difference. Developing routines allows the athlete to find consistency and can help the athlete to maintain a controlled state whether they are winning or losing.
Routines are important as they are all individual and are designed by the athlete upon knowing what is comfortable and what works for them. Athletes on a team may have to work together as a team and they may have to warm-up as a team but a good coach will also allow each individual to go through their own routines.
For example: Some coaches may use the "psyche up" method of loud music and yelling to get their athletes pumped up or highly energised for the game. However, this doesn't work for every athlete and can in fact have a negative effect on some athletes. Once again, coaches with teams want to unite their team by having them perform the same tasks together, this is fine to a certain extent, but just remember that your team is comprised of varying personalities and individuals and to allow them to have some time to themselves.
This comes down to having good communication with your athletes and knowing about each individual and how they respond to group tasks. The coach with the "my way or the highway" mentality often forces his players to become robotic and fall into the military way of breaking down the individual to become nothing more than a controlled follower. This is required for the military but in sports you want your athletes to be able to make their own decisions as well as react to certain events that will best fit into the game plan or tactics drawn up for them by the coach. Respect their individuality!
Coaching or playing an individual sport is quite different as you are not faced with multiple athletes. It is a lot easier to allow an individual to do what is best for them.
Superstition or routine? If you ever watch Russian tennis champion Maria Sharapova you will notice her routines. The most common one that I noticed was her routine in between games. Following each game and prior to going to sit down at the change of ends she will go through this routine without fail as it helps her to maintain consistency and a feeling of control no matter what. Winning or losing, she follows this routine.
Follow the last point of the game she will walk to the corner of the service box, take a step inside the box before making a right angled turn towards her seat. If the last shot of the rally takes her out of court she will then walk back into the court and go through her routine.
Every tennis player follows some routine prior to serving the tennis ball. It may be bouncing the ball two or three times, straightening their hat, rolling the balls around in their hands as Ivan Lendl did, or bouncing the ball on the ground with their racquet as Boris Becker did.
These routines allowed the player to gain consistency and control over the pace of the match. It allowed them to be in control and focus on the next point.
Superstitions are more like obsessive compulsive actions that occur when an athlete believes that by performing that action it will bring them good luck. Most superstitions arise by accident. If an athlete eats a certain meal before a game and they win, then they may eat that same meal before every meal just because they thought that it brought them good luck. As soon as they lose then they stop eating that meal and change. Superstitions can start and stop quite quickly however; routines are developed so that they can stay with you through both winning and losing.
As a coach you shouldn't try to force your routines on the athlete, instead let them develop their own routines and then work with them on making any minor adjustments if needed. Once again, it comes back to recognising that each individual is different and responds to differently to certain things than other athletes.
Routines should be developed during practice and be included into every session. Don't try to incorporate a new routine when in competition as it will take you out of your comfort zone. Practice is for working on and perfecting skills; competition is for putting these skills into use instinctively!
Tips for athletes in individual sports:
Develop routines that you are comfortable with
Allow your coach to help you adjust these routines as long as you still feel comfortable with them.
Practice these routines on a consistent basis
Develop pre-game warm-up routines
Develop pre-game stretching routines
Develop pre-game routines for relaxing and getting in the UPS
Find a quiet place where you won't be distracted by others
Know when to switch on and when to switch off
If losing, make sure that you are performing your routines
Maintain control of the game or match
Make sure that your routines are within the rules and guidelines of the sport

As a Real Estate Professional in Cumming, GA this is a question I am hearing more and more often so I wanted to share an article I read recently as well as a link to the Federal Trade Commission's information regarding What Consumers Need to know about a Reverse Mortgage.
Q: Can an Older Homeowner Who Is Cash Poor but House Rich Use Their Home to Tap into the Equity?
A: Yes, but not so much by refinancing. A reverse mortgage is a better, and increasingly popular, option for older Americans to convert home equity into cash. Money can then be used to cover home repairs, everyday living expenses, and medical bills.
Instead of making monthly payments to a lender, the lender makes payments to the homeowner, who continues to own the home and hold title to it.
According to the National Reverse Mortgage Lenders Association, the money given by the lender is tax-free and does not affect Social Security or Medicare benefits, although it may affect the homeowners' eligibility for certain kinds of government assistance, including Medicaid.
Homeowners must be at least 62 and own their own homes to get a reverse mortgage. No income or medical requirements are necessary to qualify, and they may be eligible even if they still owe money on a first or second mortgage. In fact, many seniors get reverse mortgages to pay off the original loan.
Repaying a reverse mortgage is not necessary until the property is sold or the owner moves. Should the owner die before the property is sold, the estate repays the loan, plus any interest that has accrued.

Actor Jason Lee made the most of the special date of 11-11-11 by renewing his wedding vows with his wife Ceren Alkac.
The couple marked the date, which coincided with Veteran's Day in the U.S., by holding an intimate ceremony in front of friends and family at the Club Cicada in Los Angeles, according to People.com.
They renewed their vows alongside their three-year-old daughter Casper.
Lee and Alkac originally married in July 2008, but kept the wedding secret from the press for several months until the My Name Is Earl star slipped up and referred to his partner as his wife on the red carpet.
They weren't the only ones to celebrate their marriage on Friday (11Nov11) - Jerry O'connell and Rebecca Romijn also renewed their vows after originally walking down the aisle in 2007.

One of my daughter's favorite topics is geography. Last year, she earned the title of "Miss Social Studies" from her teacher. K's teacher gave all the kids nicknames and that was hers. She loves everything social studies. Her favorite topic of everything in social studies is geography. Last year, the teacher handed them a blank map of the U.S. and told them to label as many states as they could. Miss K named 48 out of the 50 states. She missed Connecticut and New Hampshire. Because of that, she didn't have to do a couple of the next lessons/quizzes and often had to help other students. That thrilled her to no end!!
Now that we're homeschooling, we plan to have fun with social studies. She's going to learn what she needs to and some very important stuff, but we're also going to enjoy it. Part of our social studies this year (and probably every year) will be to keep a timeline of every event, person and so on that we study. I have the timeline all printed out and put in a 3-ring binder. We used this timeline. (I'll list more timeline options at the end of this post.) However, there are many others available out there that are free and printable. Each event or person (or anything else that can be placed on a timeline) will be marked on the timeline. We're including a picture and the date. It's still early yet, so there's really nothing to show you. Some of the pictures will be drawn by K, others will come from the internet or photocopied from a book. I think this will just be the neatest binder to look back on at the end of each year. Miss K loves this idea too and she's never done much work with a timeline before.
Another fun aspect of social studies this year will be our passports. We're using the passport from HS.T.T. as ours. (I'll list more passports at the end of this post.) For each country or state that we study or learn about, we're going to place a stamp or graphic on our passport to represent it. I'm hoping at the end of the year, that we're world travelers. So far, we have Wisconsin and Kansas because we've learned about those with our read aloud book Little House on the Prairie. They traveled through Minnesota and other states to get there, but I'm undecided if we'll add them to the passport. She has learned about all the states of the Midwest as part of our lessons, which included the Great Flood of 1993.
There is another great passport here. You can find a passport and plane ticket as well at this class site. Here's a cute mini passport and a pattern for another one. There's also a Passport for Learning for lower grades.
I think I've shared some timelines before, but one can never have enough choices or reminders!! Here's a verticle timeline and a timeline generator. This and this can be used to make personal timelines. Cindy Downes has a couple printable timelines as well as links to a couple others. Finally, there is timelines for homeschool that have many great suggestions and links to other printables.
There's others available for both of these items. I search in Google, Yahoo or other search engine will bring up serveral choices. Often, the hunt is part of the fun!! I do hope that some of the items that I've listed will be of help to those that are looking for them.

White Thugs Destroy Gas Station, Fight Attendant, But Will Get Away With It Because Of White PrivilegeMonday, August 22, 2016Brother Mustafaa
(Theroot.com) Ryan Lochte is a dumbass. Let's get that out of the way first. From the dyed-gray hair to the stupid look that he constantly wears on his face, it's no wonder he came up with some fake story about being robbed in Rio de Janeiro, along with his band of merry swimmers...
But let's dissect this for a few minutes.

Hollywood's Stacy Keach stars in Australia's Road Games. Keach is a truck driver who takes the law in his own hands to capture a serial killer. When the police fail to nab the murderer of hitchhikers, Keach takes to the road, conducting his own search. En route, he picks up hitcher Jamie Lee Curtis--and it is her presence that brings the killer out of hiding and into the bloody finale. Director Richard Franklin's fondness for Hitchcock, which would come to full fruition in Psycho II (1982), is very much in evidence throughout Road Games.~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
Director: Richard Franklin
Writer: Everett De Roche
Cast: Stacy Keach, Jamie Lee Curtis, Marion Edward, Grant Page, Thaddeus Smith, Steve Millichamp, Alan Hopgood, John Murphy, Bill Stacey and Robert Thompson
Sorry there are no upcoming showtimes for Road Games

Happy to make an official announcement about Bookcamp Vancouver 2010!
The second annual installment will occur in downtown Vancouver on the classic binary date of 01.10.10.
It will be hosted again this year by the good people at SFU Harbour Centre, more specifically the Canadian Centre for Studies in Publishing which features the Masters of Publishing Program and the Summer Publishing Workshops – both of which feature amazing faculty and produce the leaders of tomorrow.
Our friends at BookNet Canada have once again generously sponsored the event! They rule, we love them, you should too.
The organizing team will be taking a more active curatorial role this year in an effort to bring everyone a more focused and informative day. We have decided to cut back the number of sessions, too, while including more time for conversation between sessions.
We hope that these decisions will provide a better experience for everyone.
Please check out our wiki and become a fan of our Facebook Page, too.
If you have any questions, suggestions or comments please don't hesitate to let me or any of the organizers know.
See you in October!
Filed under: Events | Tags: S.H. Carlyle, SFU, Simon Fraser University, Symposium on the Book
Very excited to be a part of the process for selecting and celebrating these short, funny stories as a part of the SFU Symposium on the Book.
Here they are:
Grand Prize Winner: S. H. Carlyle
To the cult I inadvertently started last night:
Good morning, group of strangers assembled on my front lawn.
I would like to start out by apologizing for the comments I made last night regarding the demise of the universe. I had been drinking quite heavily since lunchtime and was a little emotionally fragile after a serious screw-up at the office which I'm told will cost my firm its best client. I was in no condition to claim that the only way any of us would survive the Earth's imminent explosion would be to come back to my house for inter-dimensional transport. Again, I apologize.
I am pleased, though, that so many of you—I believe you are calling yourselves "The Progeny of Orion"—have embraced this movement so readily. I see you have removed all your body hair and coated yourselves in petroleum jelly according to my instructions, which, again, I did not expect you all to follow. I don't want to say that I was in any way "joking" because by the looks of manic determination on many of your faces I can tell that you did not find it funny. I will say, however, that I did not intend to find such a receptive audience for cult membership during happy hour at the Red Lobster by the on-ramp.
However, I personally think it's inspiring to see so many people (and there really are an alarming number of you here) ready to give up the lives they know and join a thinly explained pseudo-spiritual group. I'm also very impressed that some of you took the time to copy down everything I said last night and carve it word-for-word into this grouping of granite monoliths. Reading these now, it seems I was very excited about the weather in the Hexalian Dimension as it would give us the opportunity to "enhance the frequency harmonics of our multi-variant communal psychokinesis and get us out jogging more." I also seem to go on at great length about a character named Sazerac whom I believed would deliver us from the pains of our mortal form, although I suspect you might have misunderstood me as I'm pretty sure I was trying to order another cocktail. Nevertheless, I think you got the message.
I should also make a special announcement to all the women among you, hairless and difficult to pick out as you may be. Lately, my problems at work have been compounded by troubles with my girlfriend who has recently moved out, destroying my self-esteem. It really makes me feel validated to know that Karen missed out on becoming the Humanly Vessel of the Inter-Dimensional Supernova Jesus whom I claimed I would father and who so many of you were willing to carry. And when I suggested that the mother of this new deity should be determined through a topless make-out competition, you were all equally committed. For that, I thank you, but again, I apologize.
I should wrap this up as I have to get off to work. But just to recap, there will be no inter-dimensional travel happening on my lawn today or any other day, despite what I might have said last night.
Feel free to use the garden hose to wash yourselves off. There's also some V8 juice and a half a bag of mini-bagels for anyone who's interested. Just please, before you go, put out the oil drum fires and take the vats of feces with you. I'll deal with the monoliths. Thanks.

Let's Exploit Writers Now!
The other day I was re-reading Midnight's Children, and I thought to myself, damn, this man Rushdie can write, but wouldn't it be something if I could hear him sing, too? Picture Salman Rushdie sitting down at a piano in a dark and smoky room. That would make a hell of an album cover. I bet you it would sell.
When this idea first came to me, I was a little worried that Salman Rushdie might not be a very good singer. But isn't that what computers are for? I mean, certainly in this day and age the question of whether he can sing or not is no longer relevant. I don't think T-Pain can sing. It's hard to tell.
What I do know is that before Simon Cowell became famous for American Idol, he made a lot of money by giving recording contracts to professional wrestlers. He observed that hundreds of thousands of people went crazy whenever Macho Man Randy Savage grabbed a microphone in order to yell at Hulk Hogan, and then Simon Cowell thought, let's put Macho Man in a recording studio.
These days, everyone knows that singers who can't sing can be singers. Steven Segal has two albums. But nobody seems to have made the connection that writers (just like actors, wrestlers, models, hotel heiresses, and athletes) are artists with musical potential. I have a feeling that Tom Robbins would love to be auto-tuned. He likes attention.
Why stop here?
I would love to see a buddy cop movie starring Stephen King and Samuel L. Jackson. Don't you think that Stephen King and Samuel L. Jackson would have chemistry?
Sam Jackson: Yo, man, don't be playin' with my radio!
Stephen King: Blood is coming out of it…
Cult status; DVD sales forever.
For this, there is already some precedent. Writers have had cameos in several movies, and not just in the ones they've written themselves. Salman Rushdie had a part in Bridget Jones's Diary and Kurt Vonnegut appeared in a Rodney Dangerfield movie. But I think it's time to give a writer a starring role. If Robert Downey, Jr. can be a singer and Madonna can be a writer, then Annie Dillard deserves a chance to be suspended from a helicopter while fiery explosions bloom all around her.
There are several artists who have had great crossovers: William Shatner made a very memorable CD, Will Smith is one of the most popular actors in the world, and John Lithgow writes fun children's books. Shouldn't writers be given a chance at this glory? I mean, if there's one thing that's clear at this point it's that talent doesn't matter. People who are famous at one thing can easily become famous at something else. That's all.
I guess I should admit that my motivations are selfish, since I have what it takes to be a quintuple-threat artist. My mom's a music teacher, so I started singing when I was very young, and around the same time I started lying, which is like acting. I have a third degree black belt in taekwondo, which means I can kick people in the head very quickly. And just the other day I taught myself how to moonwalk from a video on the internet, so I can dance now. Lastly, I can write. Maybe not as well as Salman Rushdie, but I'd like to hereby challenge him to a dancing-acting-writing-singing-karate pentathlon, because I think I'm more well-rounded than he is.
Unfortunately, I started at the wrong end of the progression. I chose 'writer' as my dominant class, and now I'm watching celebrities jump from movies to music to theatre to book deals while I'm stuck in a coffee bar with my laptop. I could sit here and whine, but instead I'm offering a solution that will make at least one person (me) happy: attach computers to my voice box, back me up with green-screens, and give me a chance to become your biggest, brightest, most shining star.
Filed under: Enthusiasms, Imagination, Industry Change, Interview | Tags: Book of MPub, BookCamp Toronto, Dragon Problems, Hur Publishing, Kathleen Fraser, Masters of Publishing, SFU, Tracey Hurren
Listen to Tracy and Kathleen talk about Hur Publishing.
The 2010 Cohort for SFU's Masters of Publishing Program are a stone-cold bunch who have really stepped out and shown the industry that they're ready to accept the challenges that are affecting publishing.
I have discussed this previously on Julie Wilson's BookMadam & Associates site.
Their collaborative print on demand work entitled Book of MPub is essential reading for anyone interested in discovering new ideas for book/magazine publishing. The book totally levels the playing field and brings the publishing conversation back to a deep discussion of essential ideas and offers no time for weak fear-based arguments.
Tracy Hurren and Kathleen Fraser are just two of the bright lights from the SFU MPub program who are now spending their summer getting some experience interning at a couple of Canada's finest independent publishers.
Tracy is ripping it up in Montreal at Drawn and Quarterly while Kathleen keeps it closer to home with a gig at Arsenal Pulp Press in Vancouver.
But that's not what we're talking about here.
What we're talking about here is Dragon Problems, the first book to be published by Hur Publishing.
Hur Publishing is a joint conspiratorial effort of Tracy and Kathleen that involves publishing new engaging stories as well-designed books – including some of Tracy's amazing handmade books.
Dragon Problems is an excellent example of what can happen when you have the convergence of good story + great art + sweet design skills + keen editorial eye.
The story was written by Chris Carrier and the art was created by Stacey Buchanan.
Both Chris and Stacey are lucky to have had their work brought to life by Tracy and Kathleen. It's a great first effort and I cannot wait for their next book to drop.
Please check out the Hur Publishing website for more info and also to order your copy of the book.
Also, I believe that both Tracy and Kathleen will be presenting at BookCamp Toronto 2010 this coming Saturday as part of their Book of MPub throwdown.
If you're attending BookCamp Toronto 2010 then I highly recommend that you attend their session – it's designed to blow minds and to drag the unwilling kicking and screaming into the here and now.
Check out our interview and let me know what you think.

Liza recently looked after our puppy for a week and we will definitely be using her again! We got daily text and pictures and when we came back our puppy was better behaved than when we left her! I would highly recommend Liza for house and pet-sitting.
Katherine S., Los Altos 3/1/14
Liza is fantastic. She is veterinary trained so has the technical cred, but also loves dogs. We recently relocated from the East Coast but needed to go back for 10 days to tie up loose ends. Ten days in a new place without us was going to be very hard on our dog. Liza provided him with a companion, her dog, as well as major activities every day. He was definitely having more fun that we were. She sent us a text and pictures everyday. She also diagnosed his allergy to the new food we had started giving him as we couldn't find his old food locally. She tried a couple of regimens until one worked. When we finally got back we were afraid he wouldn't want to be with us as he had gotten such royal treatment by Liza. We trust her completely. Thank you, Liza!
Melinda, Palo Alto 10/30/13
Liza is the most reliable, trustworthy and communicative pet/house sitter out there. Our cat is on a diet and requires specific meal times and quantity. Liza was up for the challenge and was sure to give Rastle lots of attention while we were away. She took great care of our house too and was on top of a crazy water leak, even willing to arrange a plumber. We couldn't have asked for anyone better. Thanks, Liza! Raslte misses you :)
Jacynth R., 9/22/13
Liza has done pet sitting for us for several years and has always done a fantastic job. As our first dog got older and had medical issues, it was good to know that we could trust Liza to take care of daily meds and any issue that might come up. Now that we have a young and energetic dog, Liza does a great job of providing plenty of play time or hike to burn off that excess puppy energy.
Yvonne M., Menlo Park, 9/14/13
Our family depends on Liza and Peninsula Pets to help us out with our active dog who also requires daily medication. Whether it's mid-day medication/walk service, or overnights while we are out of town, we feel confidant that our dog is in loving, competent care!
Patti P., Portola Valley 9/15/13
"I have used Peninsula Pets over the last few years each time I travel. I have two cats and one of them requires daily medication. He is particularly clever at resisting his dose. Liza has been masterful at getting him to take his medication. I feel a great deal of peace of mind leaving my cats in her care"
Pat M., Palo Alto 9/12/13
My family has been using Liza's services for many years and we have always been very pleased. She is nice and courteous, and charges fair rates. In many cases, it's much better and less stressful than sending your pets to a kennel. Liza will come to your house and take care of all your pets' needs, as well as collect the mail, water your plants, take out the garbage,etc. We fully trust Liza in providing excellent pet sitting services for all our pets!
Daniel G., Menlo Park 4/20/14
I can't thank you enough for your thoughtful and professional care of my cats and dog. It is so nice to have a delightful & fully competent professional pet sitter to set my mind at ease. Thanks for everything Peninsula Pets!
John T., Woodside 9/5/13
Peninsula Pets is truly a lifesaver. My corgi had back surgery and I needed someone with experience handling post-op dogs during the work day while I was not home. Peninsula Pets came to the rescue! Liza has been wonderful, taking him out to potty every day, comforting him and providing him treats and fresh water. At the end of each visit, she contacted me to provide an update, giving me the security that my guy is ok. I am very grateful for her superb service! Peninsula Pets is amazing and well worth it!
Rosanne W., Los Altos Hills 9/2/13
I found Liza and have no worries when she cares for my cats. One of my boys has medical needs and is on pills and fluids. Liza makes sure all his needs are met . My other cat can be very timid from anyone who comes over. Liza got him to come out and had him purring!!!! They both love her! I highly recommend Peninsula Pets!
Lyla R, Menlo Park 8/8/13

The Reformation brought to light some important matters, namely the three "solas," namely Sola Scriptura, Sola Gratia, and Sola Fide. The word "sola" means "alone." From the Reformation we learn the importance of Scripture Alone when it comes to the source of Christian teaching. Grace alone reminds us that it is only by God's grace through the merits of Jesus Christ that we have been saved. And Faith Alone teaches us that we are saved through our faith, or by believing in Jesus Christ, not by our own works.
So what does that have to do with us today? In our own Lutheran Church we celebrate the fact that God has blessed us with His authority, the Holy Scriptures, which teach us about Jesus Christ and the truths about what God has done for us. The Reformation brought to light God's amazing grace by which He is able to justify the sinner and offering forgiveness by the blood of Jesus Christ, which cleanses us from all sin. And the Reformation reminded us that it is through our faith in Christ that we receive these wonderful blessings of God's grace in our lives. This is not something to take lightly, but to celebrate with gratitude!
May God bless our celebration of the Reformation 500!
– Pastor Bob Hass

|Edmonton, Alberta
Melanie Sweetman and Stephanie Borgs of XCG Consulting Limited are members of Edmonton CREW (Commercial Real Estate Women), a business networking organization dedicated to the mentorship, career development, and leadership succession for women in commercial real estate. Stephanie has been actively involved in the Future Leaders committee, which aims to promote commercial real estate as a career path to the next generation of women in business.
As part of this committee, Stephanie was invited to co-facilitate a residential land development case study to a University of Alberta real estate class. The students were to act as analysts and provide a recommendation to the land owner of whether to sell, develop, or hold a parcel of land in southwest Edmonton. Experts in the fields of financing, land development, and residential sales provided insight of the steps involved in residential land development to aid in the decision making process.
The class was a success and the Future Leaders committee has been invited to present again in the Fall.

Progressive New York One of Last States in the Country to Have No Early Voting
New York may one of the most reliably blue states in the U.S., but it's got one of the lowest voter turnout rates. One reason? It's one of about 20 states that has no early voting at all. It doesn't even have no-excuse absentee voting. Despite efforts by advocacy groups and state lawmakers, at least 10 bills related to early voting have stalled in the legislature since last year. WNYC reporter Karen Rouse explores why.

Hiipity Hoppity Hopperoo!
Howdy, Hoppers!
So good of you to stop by! I'm so excited you could join us for the first ever All About Me Blog Hop! Did you enjoy visiting Iris? Yowza, she has got some amazing pages!!!
By now you are all up to date on today's challenge "I Just Can't Live Without..." Here's my layout:
Journaling reads: "Just can't live without the other weirdo in my life - Katie."
So, what can't you live without? Chocolate? High heels? Your honey? Show us what you just have to have! Leave a comment with a link to your layout and I will randomly select one of you to win a fabulous prize! Become a follower of this blog for another entry. Become a follower of the All About Me Blog for yet another entry. Just come back here and leave another comment to let me know about the additional entries you earned. So many chances to win this awesome prize! Wanna know what it is?
Well, if you saw my studio on Bella Blvd.'s Blog, then maybe you noticed this little bit of goodness:
It's my very favoritest thing in my whole studio right now - my vintage wall pin cushion! I love this thing! It houses all those adorable pins and when you need one, no having to dig around to find one, poking yourself in the process - they're right there to say, "Pick me!" I made another one just exactly like it, and it's up for grabs to you!
So remember to leave those comments by 1o pm PST on November 6th for your chances to win!!
Here's some fun little facts for you to ponder about the weirdness that is me:
1. My childhood ambition: To be a country singer. Secretly, still is...
2. My retreat: The studio. I just bunker down in there until the storm passes.
3. The perfect day: Sleep late. Wake up and pillow talk with the DF. Breakfast. Go for a drive in the Cobra. Picnic lunch. Picnic smooching :) Ice Cream and window shopping. Movie. Dinner out. Home. More pillow talk.
4. My first job was: Hmm... this is a hard one. Of course babysitting goes without saying. My first job in college was the best one - I ran errands and cleaned house for a crazy lady. She paid me what she thought I deserved. My biggest paycheck was after I sat with her for seven hours watching Fox News when we went to war in Iraq. $32/hour. Nuff said.
5. My wildest dream: Oh that's a tough one. Singing on a stage Reba style is probably the most "out there" dream of mine.
6. If my life was a musical it would be called: Annie Get Your Glue
7. My proudest moment: Being the first in my family to graduate from College - Yeah, Baby!
8. My favorite item of clothing: All four pairs of yoga pants. I very rarely do yoga, but they're so comfy.
9. I feel ready for the day when I: Put on mascara.
10. I COULD live without: Cellulite. Who needs it? Really...

Kapoo & Sons ( Since 1921 )
Kapoor and Sons is Unadulterated dysfunctional spontaneity at its best... rarely I have seen movies that commercialize socially discomforting subjects so well. Most of the time, the production house would sugar coat and dilute subjects fearing consumer backlash. . However, Shakun Batra picks up speed right from the word go and kept it's grip to the end. The ensemble is stellar - the writing is kick ass, direction is spot on, music compliments .. two thumbs up

Veterans' News
Coming up in July
A number of veterans groups will be holding their yearly fundraising benefits in the coming weeks so be sure and go out and support them and the many charitable acts they perform in our community.
On Saturday, July 3, the Vietnam Veterans of America (Chap. # 890) will be holding their First Annual Pancake Breakfast from 6:30 am to noon at VFW Hall in Sandpoint (corner of Pine and Division). Bring the family out to eat before the big parade!
Also on July 3 from 8 am 'til 6 pm the Disabled American Veterans will be selling "Forget-me-Nots" outside of the Ponderay Wal-Mart to help benefit their new Van Fund. Local 'celebrities' helping DAV members man the tables that day include (so far) The River Journal Publisher Trish Gannon, author Marianne Love, State Representative George Eskridge, and Independent candidate for Sheriff "Bean" Johnson. (Thanks guys!)
Upcoming on Saturday, July 17, again at Sandpoint's VFW Hall from 9 to 3 will be the combined DAV Used Book Sale and the V.V.A. Annual Yard Sale. For pick-up of donations please call Joe (DAV Book Sale) at 208-265-9881 or Cliff (V.V.A. Yard Sale) at 208-263-8954. Items may also be dropped off at VFW Hall the morning of the events.
The American Legion still needs volunteer riflemen and flagbearers for military funerals and civic events. For more information please call Bill Stevens (cell phone) at 208-290-5933.
The River Journal is offering free subscriptions to our local National Guard troops recently called up for duty in Iraq. If you have a loved one you'd like placed on the subscription list, please send their APO address to "Veterans News" c/o TRJ, 307 N. Second #7, Sandpoint, Ida. 83864.
In order to better accommodate their church-going members, the Veterans Against War weekly Peace Vigil has moved its time back to 8:30-9:30 am on Sundays at the corner of 5th and Cedar in Sandpoint. For more information, call Bean at 208-265-3599.
Local author Marianne Love's website guestbook recently included a message from Franklin Smith, who served briefly at Idaho's Farragut Naval Station in WWII. By coincidence, he was reading of the experiences of George Norton, a survivor of the same Okinawa Kamikaze Suicide Attack on the USS Snelling in 1944 as Franklin. He called him immediately on May 28 to say hello and they reminisced and agreed to meet this year. Frank and George's call was made, it was later determined, exactly 54 years to the day after the USS Snelling was hit by the suicide plane. (Marianne's story of the Farragut NTS and others can be found at www.mariannelove.com.)
Like most veterans I'm becoming increasingly cynical and leery over our Administration's hollow support for issues directly concerning veterans and their health care and I am starting to cringe every time they publicly and loudly proclaim their fervent gratitude. After a flag-waving Memorial Day speech praising our veterans, the very next day President Bush quietly announced plans for massive cuts in veterans health care after the fall elections. Last January, while again publicly praising veterans at a visit to Walter Reed Army Hospital, Bush quietly dropped 164,000 veterans from access to the VA health care system and in October, while again publicly thanking National Guard troops called up for duty in Iraq, the White House announced it would oppose a Democratic proposal to give National Guard and Reserve members access to the Pentagon's health insurance program.
It seems any time Bush makes a speech declaring his unwavering support for some aspect of the government's veterans, it's an almost certain kiss of death, as it's sure to be followed by massive budget cuts. Just when I think they can't go any lower they grab a shovel and manage to dig a little deeper. In the words of that great American Patriot Howlin' Wolf, it "makes ya' wanna' holler, makes ya' wanna' scream!"
Various veterans organizations have a lot of fund raising activities going on in July. Mark your calendars to support these worthy endeavors.

I'm off to the Virginia Library Association conference. If you've landed here on my wee blog via a business card, please accept this warning in advance: I talk about medical stuff here! Icky TMI medical stuff! But I also talk books and libraries and stuff, too. It's kind of a catchall, and I should really think about separating the two, but have you SEEN my to-do list?
Anyway. Welcome! I probably think you're cool, if I gave you my card! :)

Stunning new film pulls back veil on depression, suicide
Ray Comfort's 'EXIT' available for download
Nearly 800,000 people worldwide kill themselves every year.
That's more than 2,000 suicides per day and one death every 40 seconds. And it's not even counting those who attempt suicide and fail. According to the World Health Organization, there are indications that for each adult who dies of suicide, more than 20 others attempt it.
Now, a new movie attempts to shine a light into the darkness of depression and bring hope to those who believe they have none. "EXIT: The Appeal of Suicide" is available for pre-release download beginning July 12.
The official trailer bills it as "a movie that will break your heart yet give you hope." It attempts to reach out to those trapped in the throes of deep sadness and despair and point them toward a better way. The movie makers encourage viewers to share the film with those they love, in case someone they love is considering their own "exit" from this world.
WND founder and CEO Joseph Farah praised the movie, declaring, "'EXIT' is an absolute triumph!"
The trailer:
Christian apologist Ray Comfort, founder and CEO of Living Waters, was the executive producer of "EXIT."
He has plenty of filmmaking experience, having produced or directed several other films, including "180," "Audacity," "Evolution vs. God," "Noah and the Last Days" and "Genius."

There's been mixed opinions on the iPhone, but one thing is certain – you don't have to be restricted by the whims of Steve Jobs.
Aside from jail-breaking (something I will cover in another post/article) here are a few tips you can use on a day-to-day basis.
Now, Windows Vista users need to do a little extra legwork. For those of you using Windows XP you can skip to Stage 2 (I have not tested this on the Mac)
For those of you using Windows Vista, you must first allow yourself to be able to view ALL file extensions and be able to change them (this is important later on!). You will therefore need to:
Ok, so everyone is now at the same level! Onto how to convert your MP3 to a ringtone…
Want to scare the crap out of your friends and happen to have an iPhone on the O2 network? Send the following as a text to someone else with an iPhone on the O2 network:
*goYour Phone is Bricked
They won't receive a text, their screen will go black and they will receive this as an error message! (There is a word limit before it becomes a standard message – the only other place you'll find this on the internet is on macrumours.com and a brief mention on the Mac Format website).
However, forgetting the enjoyment you may get out of this, it could lead to a lot of problems. What's to stop a company using this to pop up several sales messages on your iPhone? Or for people who don't know about this trick trying to utilize their warranty. Very concerning…
More tips and tricks will be added to this post as they occur to me – feel free to post your own if you come up with any!

Why? Well, to help them, of course!
No word yet on whether Governor Cup or Waffle Cone will sign or veto this
Gee, I wonder which way he's leaning...
You know, if you really want to "help" the poor you could do any number of things:
Raise the minimum wage, fully fund public education, support labor unions, do away with that "right to work" crap, restore all the cuts to AHCCCS, start prosecuting employers who exploit immigrant labor, quit giving tax cuts to the rich while cutting services to the people who need them most...you know, stuff like that.
Things that might actually help the poor.
But I guess it's just easier to fuck them over when they're desperate for cash, right?
I mean, that's the Christian thing to do, right?

Oliver! The Musical
Pleasance Theatre Edinburgh
28 November 2017
29 November 2017
Claudia A
Share with:
The Edinburgh University Savoy Opera Group returns with Lionel Bart's much-loved and musical OLIVER! to give it a new and exciting twist in the lead up to the 30-year anniversary of EUSOG's first production. One of the most exciting twists here is the bold decision to have Fagin – 'receiver of stolen goods' and leader and exploiter of a gang of juvenile pickpockets – played by a woman. That, by the way, also goes for the Artful Dodger!
Of course, in this day and age artistic licence is being taken to new heights (or lows, depending on ones outlook). In a time were we have the first female Dr. Who and the Artful Dodger is played by a black boy (just watch the BBC drama DICKENSIAN, currently repeated on Drama) anything seems to go, though whether it works or not is of course debatable.
Charles Dicken's iconic tale of Oliver Twist, the unfortunate orphan who, in Victorian London, was born in a workhouse before falling into the wrong hands, only to be rescued by the kindly Mr. Brownlow – is among the author's most successful novels. Despite the book's dark undertones, social criticisms and descriptions of the squalid conditions London's poor had to live in it didn't stop writer and composer to come up with the genius idea of turning this sordid tale of Victorian cruelty and murder into a multi-award winning stage musical, later to be made into an even more successful 1968 musical film starring Mark Lester in the title role, Jack Wild as the Dodger and the incomparable Ron Moody as Fagin. And yes, despite its huge on-going success and big-budget production values the film doesn't bring the true horror of 19th century London's dark underbelly across. For this, you should watch director David Lean's 1948 masterpiece, with Robert Newton as one of the vilest 'Bill Sykes' ever to appear on the silver screen.
EUSOG have attempted to re-create the squalid slum-like conditions of that era and it must be said with convincing results (although the clothes on the washing line are perhaps a shade too white for ghetto in London's Saffron Hill). The costumes – bearing in mind that this is a student production on a shoestring budget – consist of an uneven mish-mash made up of proper Victorian clobber, mixed with items that look too modern and like leftover rags from last year's High Street jumble sale (costume designer, please take note!). If there are two truly outstanding factors which make this production worthwhile it is the excellent singing and the equally excellent orchestra – in particular Chloe Simpson ('Widow Corney'), Grace Dickson ('Nancy') and Kirsten Millar ('Charlotte') whose voices are simply magnificent and worthy of any professional production – one of the highlights is a superb rendition of
Who Will Buy
… These young ladies are just as capable of speaking with convincing Cockney accents as is Ashleigh More, whose portrayal of Fagin's cheeky and jolly sidekick 'Artful Dodger' is spot-on! Kathryn Salmond takes on the courageous role of playing Fagin – a role that seems simple to play as he is such a distinctive character but in fact he's rather difficult to play as there are so many nuances to him – not to mention the Yiddish East End accent. Surprisingly, Kathryn pulls it off in her own way, looking more like NY punk-rock chanteuse Patti Smith than the stereotypical Fagin, and her rendition of the hilarious
'Reviewing the Situation'
– one of the musical's signature songs – is inspiring to say the least.
On the male front, a big round of applause must go to Joe Kirkpatrick ('Noah Claypole') whose Cockney accent is so utterly convincing you'd never believe he hails from Dumfries! Granted, unless you were born under the Bow Bells a Cockney accent is no mean feat for any performer but Joe seems to have the gift of the gab. Saul Garett makes for a worthy (and rather hunky) 'Bill Sykes' with an excellent singing voice though he could upgrade the malice in his voice and still get away with it. The same can be said for Richard Blaquiére ('Mr. Bumble'), mind you, his 'Mr. Bumble' is a better singer than talker.
Last but not least, we now get to the star of the show – Oliver Twist. Unfortunately this turns out to be somewhat of a let-down, for the actor chosen to portray him is 19- year old Yann Davies, a lad who is also quite tall. And therein lies the problem for the whole essence of Oliver Twist is that he is this waif-like, malnourished and timid boy that you just want to protect from the evils of this world. How can a 19-year old portray such a boy? I don't point the finger of blame at Yann, who tries his best to be what he simply cannot be, but on the casting director who should have realized that casting the part of Oliver (the main part as it stands) with someone who simply looks too grown up doesn't work – amateur production or not. This much is especially true for the climactic showdown between Sykes and Oliver, with both wrestling on a rooftop. What an anti-climax to what should have been one of the tensest scenes! Oliver wouldn't stand a chance to wrestle with someone like Sykes for more than three seconds yet here, Oliver came out trumps. Still, this is the personal opinion of yours truly, others may look at it differently. Either way it's worth checking out the production and I promise that you too will be bowled over by the terrific singing!
OLIVER! runs until Dec 2nd at the Pleasance Theatre.

June went to dvd without attracting much attention. Watching it, you can see why. It feels more like an assemblage of cliches from the occult genre than it ever is a film, least of all one that has been construed with a coherent rationale in mind. We have the standard Devil Child theme from The Omen (1976) through to Case 39 (2009). Or perhaps one should say maybe a Devil Child film one of the main problems is that the script never puts a finger on what is going on with June. She has an invisible companion she calls Aer who may have some relation to Celtic mythology, her eyes go black and she blasts the near area and causes people to die with apparent psychic powers whenever she gets upset.
Beyond that, not much else is particularly clear. Is it meant to be a possession film? And if so, what is Aer? The opening narration talks about the cults belief in a child with two souls, one dark, one good, which pushes the film into the arena of something like Bless the Child (2000) with the child caught between saviour and devil child but this never features in the film again. There is a cult but it is not clear what they are trying to do, even at the ending where they conduct a ritual in which Kennedy Brice is levitated in a beam of light. Certainly, in the title role, Kennedy Brice has a great series of calm and impassively cold stares. It is just that the film can never decide what is going on. One of the revelations we get at the end is that Victoria Pratt was the woman we saw at the start who escaped from the cult with the child but this proves to be a twist of monumental indifference.

American | Salisbury Steak
Posted on November 5, 2013
As a kid, my mom had a freezer full of Swanson TV Dinners to be eaten when there was no time to cook. My least favorite was the Salisbury Steak. I mean, what was it? Steak? A burger? But when I saw this recipe in Michael Symon's 5 in 5 cookbook, I had to give it a try. We loved it.
Yield: 4 servings
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 cups beef broth (low sodium)
1 pound ground beef (80% lean)
1/4 cup plain dry bread crumbs
1 large egg
1/2 cup plus 3 tablespoons canned tomato sauce
4 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
kosher salt
freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced (2 cups)
In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and 1/4 cup of the beef broth.
Put a large skillet over medium-high heat.
In a large bowl, combine the beef, bread crumbs, egg, 3 tablespoons of the tomato sauce, 3 tablespoons or the Worchestshire sauce, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Mix thoroughly and then divide the mixture into 4 equal portions. Shape each portion into a flat oval-shaped patty, about 1/4 inch thick. (I make mine thicker.) Season both sides of the patties with salt and pepper.
Add the olive oil to the preheated skillet. Add the beef patties and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip the meat and scoot the patties to one side of the pan. Add the onion and a pinch each of salt and pepper to the empty space and cook until the beef patties are golden brown on the second side, about 2 minutes. Put the patties on a plate and cover with foil while you prepare the sauce.
To the same skillet, add the remaining 1 3/4 cups beef broth, 1/2 cup tomato sauce, and 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce and bring to a boil. Whisk in the cornstarch mixture. Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding salt and pepper as needed. Return the beef patties to the pan and cook until the sauce thickens and the meat is warmed through, about 1 minute.
Remove from heat and serve.

A Greggs bakery branch was raided just an hour before a bank was held-up less than a mile away .
Two men fled on foot after demanding cash from Greggs in Anchor Parade, Aldridge , at 8.30am on Friday.
At 9.25am, the Barclays branch in nearby High Street was raided when three men armed with machetes smashed a dark blue Transit van through the window.
They entered the bank and threatened staff but were forced to leave empty-handed.
The men were seen running away from the bank towards Little Aston Road.
Police do not believe the two incidents are connected.
Officers are in the area and continue to search for the suspects.
Last month, armed robbers struck at another Barclays bank, wielding angle grinders or chainsaws.
A gang struck at the busy branch at Sankeys Corner in Burntwood, near Lichfield , on November 10.
Staffordshire Police said a cash delivery driver was entering the branch when he was approached by two suspects.
A cash box full of money was taken before the pair made off in a grey Audi A4 which was waiting outside before heading towards Cannock.
A Natwest was also robbed in Aldridge in March.
Local councillor Tim Wilson said "It is shocking news to hear and not the first time that this has happened.
"A NatWest was also robbed quite recently and clearly for some reason Aldridge seems to be a bit of a target.
"The police need to do all they can to reassure the public, as well as helping find the perpetrators behind the crime."
Anyone with information about either raid is urged to call 101 the independent Crimestoppers charity on 0800 555 111 or 999 in an emergency.

I enjoyed this book much more than Take a Chance. Harlow seemed to grow up a bit. To tell you the truth, she annoyed beyond belief in the prior book. I suppose that's normal for a girl like her though, naive and inexperienced. She seemed to shed the majority of her self-consciousness and was forced to grow up given the circumstances that became her new life. Grant stepped up and showed he was ready to take on the challenges ahead of him, if only Harlow would come home and let him. That brings me to my Nan thoughts...now just how many times would she be making an appearance to screw things up for them this time around?
Did Grant react poorly to the fact that Harlow was keeping her heart condition a secret from him? Sure he did. Did Harlow perhaps overreact at his reaction? Sure she did. They were both thinking about themselves and not how they could work through this together. When Harlow ran away from Grant, she took another secret with her. If all the things she was ever told were to actually be true, she knew the outcome would destroy Grant for good. Although I was pissed at what she was doing, I could see why she did it. Didn't mean I liked it any one bit, but I suppose when you're young and scared you don't think straight. I am glad, for both of them, that she had her brother at her side, or else she may have never gone back home. And once they finally returned to each other, they were forced to fight for the survival of everything their love grew into.
This story contained quite an emotional ride for all the characters in the book as well as me as a reader. Seems to be that whenever someone starts to prepare for a future they cannot yet see, I always think something really bad will happen. Sure I can always see the HEA, but a small piece of what is supposed to be part of that will be missing, and that is not ok! And that is what gets to me, all of Harlow's letters. Albeit thoughtful and considerate, still made me teary-eyed and saying NO NO NO, you don't need to do this. It'll work out, it has to! But does it all work out as it should? You'll just have to read to find out.
Now, I know a lot of readers hate, Nan, personally I like all the...lets just call it "spice" she adds to the stories. She is a spoiled brat who likes to stir up shit where ever she goes. But you may be interested to know, she did a very selfless thing here. Pretty sure she shocked a lot of the Rosemary Beach crew. Her heart isn't all black after all, thank God!
So before you pick up your copy to read, you may want to have a few tissues handy, because Abbi delivers a few punches to the gut and to the heart in this one. Happy reading!

Haha the log gets cleared automatically every time I close vts. All that was on the same day (I added a new framework, decompiled, and compiled. That's it)
All I did was decompile and recompile. How exactly do I go about fixing an error like that? Or is it likely that some styles just don't show when decompiled?
