I have never caught a steelhead.
I have tried to find them in Lake Superior's North Shore tributaries. There, they are crowded out by stocked Kamloops rainbows and I was crowded out by territorial bait fishermen.
But there is something about steelhead. Something beyond their size and power and beauty that draws fly fishermen to them like few other species. It's a tradition born in the green rivers of the Pacific Northwest and brought to the tributaries of the Great Lakes along with the fish themselves.
So I have begun trying again, now in Michigan, so far still without success. But not catching steelhead is more rewarding here — you can fish Lake Michigan and Lake Huron tributaries in the winter, when Lake Superior's are frozen solid right to the bedrock. In the winter in Michigan you can catch brown trout incidentally and have the snowy river to yourself.
In the past weeks I have become an adept builder of egg flies and flashy streamers. I can tie my leaders with almost no feeling in my fingers. I have learned the value of a hot cup of coffee from a thermos at lunchtime. I have become a roll caster and stack mender, though my attempts at line control are often crude and unpleasant to watch. My partner and instructor — a wizard of this particular river — divines fish out of pocket water with ease and skill, after letting me try each likely spot first.
The steelhead are not forgiving of an imperfect drift. It's strange that they will eat something that is made of sparkly plastic and feathers, of a shape and color nowhere occurring naturally on this earth, but if it does not drift perfectly they will refuse even the most perfect stonefly imitation.
Fortunately, some will eat a fly on a perfect drift even after I've swum one past their face nauseatingly. This means that my partner might hook it and I will get to help land it — get to lift from the water a round, healthy fish, outlandishly large for the size of the river in which it is a transient: a giant annual intruder. It seems to be changing color from silver to dark rainbow before your eyes, as it acclimates from its blue great lake environs to the confined and dark holes the river offers. We keep it from the water just long enough for a picture before it angrily shoulders its way back to the dark cut bank.
So he catches some, and we kill none, though I would not hesitate to eat a hatchery-born fish. I keep trying, missing strikes and feeling for a moment one heavy fish shaking its head somewhere on the end of my line in a black-green hole.
As the season turns, the snow melts, and the waters and temperatures rise. Fresh, aggressive fish enter the river from the lake in large numbers, and the fishing improves drastically. But I suspect it will be at the price of the solitude and beauty the winter woods have enamored me with. Soon I will be elbowing for space among a host of hungry bait fishermen, with their fillet knives ready to kill and bleed the bright, wild fish onto the muddy bank. My chances of success will be much higher in the coming months, but I find myself dreading the spring.
It occurs to me that what I fear is not the company or even the killing of fish but instead the diminishing of the fish and the river itself as objects of my pursuit. Their mystique fades as they become a commodity managed by the state for angler consumption rather than a wild animal to be understood. I fear the woods will change from quiet solitude to trampled trails littered with trash and fish gore.
It feels backwards, but for the first time in my life, I'm wishing winter would remain a bit longer, so I can keep fishing.

Gov. Robert Bentley is leaning toward Alabama's attorney general Luther Strange to replace U.S. Sen. Jeff Sessions, who is expected to be confirmed Wednesday as Donald Trump's Attorney General.
POLITICO reports that three Birmingham Republican insiders have confirmed Bentley's choice of Strange, but warned it's not a formal selection, and the governor could change his mind at any time.
Strange, a former basketball player nicknamed "Big Luther," was first elected as the state's attorney general in 2010. Insiders say he is planning to travel to Washington D.C. this week for a series of interviews to staff a potential Senate office.
Strange already announced his intention to run for Sessions' vacant seat, but Bentley has yet to schedule a special election and can appoint someone Senator until he does.
POLITICO suggests one advantage of Strange going to Washington is that Bentley would get to choose a new attorney general, presumably one less inclined to follow through on the governor's sex scandal last year which led to talks of possible impeachment.
In November, strange had requested the state Legislature to suspend its investigation of Bentley, pending the completion of an investigation by his office.
"Luther is screwed either way," one source told POLITICO. "If he gets the job, it looks like he cut a deal. And if he doesn't, it looks like he's prosecuting Bentley out of revenge."

ISO 9001 certification for small companies is recommended to ensure that management performance is at optimal levels. The concept was developed by the International Organization for Standardization and while it's not mandated by the government, some customers will require it before doing business. Certification requires a two-phase audit that should be performed by an accredited body. Here are some of the steps to receiving ISO 9001 certification for small companies.
1. Train All Employees
All employees should be trained on the intent and the company's QMS requirements. All employees should be aware of the quality policy and all procedures that relates to their work. Some companies hire certified internal auditors or consultants to handle this task. The choice depends on the company, but training is instrumental to the success of the employees.
2. Choose an Accredited Registrar
The certification body should be a partner of your company for the long term. This will help your company meet the requirements for long term surveillance audits. Companies that need a CB can find one through the United States ANSI-ASQ National Accreditation Board, which is an accreditation body.
3. Request a Pre-Assessment
A pre-assessment will be performed in advance and can be seen as a trial run. There is no pass or fail in the pre-assessment, which gives companies a chance to know where they are and what they need to change to meet the requirements for QMS.
4. Schedule a Documentation Review
The pre-assessment is optional, but the documentation is not. The documentation review should be scheduled during phase one of the registration process. This will involve an audit of documentation for ISO 9001 compliance. There should be a quality manual and top-level policies and procedures.
5. A Registration Audit Should Be Scheduled
The phase-two registration audit is recommended. There is an extensive assessment of the company's QMS. The number of auditors and audit days is most often calculated based upon the size of the company. The audit will typically involve interviewing employees at every level of the organization. Audits also involve careful observation of processes being performed. A sampling of all records will be reviewed additionally.
6. Non-Conformance
Action requests on an audit report often indicates some of the major components of non-conformance. The company should always be actively working towards making an action plan to correct problems, and the auditor will provide a time-frame for the response.
7. Confirm the Certificate of Registration
Always receive the certificate of registration to adequately respond to action requests and close out any problems that a company may have. With the certificate of registration, it will be easier to register business and provide proof that the company is registered. This means a lot to vendors.
8. Surveillance Audits
Annual surveillance audits should be scheduled to cover each different aspect of the QMS over a three-year cycle. Every three years, the QMS will be re-examined, which means that the certificate will need to be updated.
Though it seems like a lot of work, the investment is well worth the effort. Every person should try to obtain their certification and build vendor confidence in your brand and your company. If you want to learn more about ISO 9001 certification, contact your local provider.
An increasing number of companies are expressing interest in ISO certification, but between 1994 and 2002, the world-wide trend for...

Maharashtra Revenue Minister Balasaheb Thorat was targeted Saturday in an ink attack here by an alleged Shiv Sena activist, an aide said.
The incident occurred when the senior Congress leader was about to sit in his car in Rajapur village after attending a function in Ahmednagar assembly constituency, he said.
An activist ran towards him and threw ink on Thorat's clothes.
The attacker - identified as Bhausaheb Hasse - was immediately caught by police as he attempted to escape.
Thorat's supporters ransacked a nearby Shiv Sena office and blocked roads to protest against the incident, an official said.
The revenue minister has appealed to his supporters to maintain calm.
This is the second incident of its kind within a fortnight in Maharashtra where a senior politician was targeted.
On Aug 8, Cooperatives Minister Harshwardhan Patil was attacked by some tribal activists who threw some liquid on his face which injured his eye. Both Thorat and Patil have demanded a probe into the incident.

Inc.'s John Brandon recently wrote about The Slow, Sad, and Ultimately Predictable Decline of 3D Printing. Uh, not so fast.
3D Printing is just getting started. For libraries whose adopted mission is to introduce people to emerging technologies, this is a fantastic opportunity to do so. But it has to be done right.
Another dead end?
Brandon cites a few reasons for his pessimism:
- 3D printed objects are low quality and the printers are finicky
- 3D printing growth is falling behind initial estimates
- people in manufacturing are not impressed
- and the costs are too high
I won't get into all that's wrong with this analysis, as I feel like most of it is incorrect, or at the very least, a temporary problem typical of a new technology. Instead, I'd like to discuss this in the library maker context. And in fact, you can apply these ideas to any tech project.
How to make failure a win—no matter what
Libraries are quick to jump on tech. Remember those QR Codes that would revolutionize mobile access? Did your library consider a Second Life branch? How about those Chromebooks!
Inevitably, these experiments are going to fail. But that's okay.
As this blog often suggests, failure is a win when doing so teaches you something. Experimenting is the first step in the process of discovery. And that's really what all these kinds of projects need to be.
In the case of a 3D Printing project at your library, it's important to keep this notion front and center. A 3D Printing pilot with the goal of introducing the public to the technology can be successful if people simply try it out. That seems easy enough. But to be really successful, even this kind of basic 3D Printing project needs to have a fair amount of up-front planning attached to it.
Chicago Public Library created a successful Maker Lab. Their program was pretty simple: Hold regular classes showing people how to use the 3D printers and then allow those that completed the introductory course to use the printers in open studio lab times. When I tried this out at CPL, it was quite difficult to get a spot in the class due to popularity. The grant-funded project was so successful, based on the number of attendees, that it was extended and continues to this day.
As a grant-funded endeavor, CPL likely wrote out the specifics before any money was handed over. But even an internally-funded project should do this. Keep the goals simple and clear so expectations on the front line match those up the chain of command. Figure out what your measurements of success are before you even purchase the first printer. Be realistic. Always document everything. And return to that documentation throughout the project's timeline.
Taking it to the next level
San Diego Public Library is an example of a Maker Project that went to the next level. Uyen Tran saw an opportunity to merge startup seminars with their maker tools at her library. She brought aspiring entrepreneurs into her library for a Startup Weekend event where budding innovators learned how the library could be a resource for them as they launched their companies. 3D printers were part of this successful program.
It's important to note that Uyen already had the maker lab in place before she launched this project. And it would be risky for a library to skip the establishment of a rudimentary 3D printer program before trying for this more ambitious program.
But it could be done if that library was well organized with solid project managers and deep roots in the target community. But that's a tall order to fill.
What's the worst thing that could go wrong?
The worst thing that could go wrong is doubling down on failure: repeating one failed project after another without changing the flawed approach behind it.
I'd also add that libraries are often out ahead of the public on these technologies, so dead ends are inevitable. To address this, I would also add one more tactic to your tech projects: listening.
The public has lots of concerns about a variety of things. If you ask them, they'll tell you all about them. Many of their concerns are directly related to libraries, but we can often help. We have permission to do so. People trust us. It's a great position to be in.
But we have to ask them to tell us what's on their mind. We have to listen. And then we need to think creatively.
Listening and thinking outside the box was how San Diego took their 3D Printers to the next level.
The Long Future of 3D Printing
The Wright Brothers first flight managed only 120 feet in the air. A year later, they flew 24 miles. These initial attempts looked nothing like the jet age and yet the technology of flight was born from these humble experiments.
Already, 3D printing is being adopted in multiple industries. Artists are using it to prototype their designs. Astronauts are using it to print parts aboard the International Space Station. Bio-engineers are now looking at printing stem-cell structures to replace organs and bones. We're decades away from the jet age of 3D printing, but this tech is here to stay.
John Brandon's read is incorrect simply because he's looking at the current state and not seeing the long-term promise. When he asks a Ford engineer for his take on 3D Printing in the assembly process, he gets a smirk. Not a hotbed of innovation. What kind of reaction would he have gotten from an engineer at Tesla? At Apple? Fundamentally, he's approaching 3D Printers from the wrong perspective and this is why it looks doomed.
Libraries should not make this mistake. The world is changing ever more quickly and the public needs us to help them navigate the new frontier. We need to do this methodically, with careful planning and a good dose of optimism.

The capacity for an engine to adjust speeds is an important feature, especially for applications in which variable speed motors are commonly used such as pumps, elevators, conveyors and machining tools.
Three-phase motors are most commonly used in variable speed motors, although the small electric motor itself can be a single-phase unit. They are widely used for fractional horsepower, or FHP motor applications because of their ability to control voltage and output current. A variable speed motor is often used in heating and cooling ventilation applications.
In such applications, the motor gradually increases to meet its maximum speed rather than starting at its maximum (and only) speed, like fixed speed motors. The speed in a variable speed motor is dependent on the number of poles or winding sets that are built into the motor itself, allowing the speed to increase or decrease in stages. The progressive movement towards high speed eliminates noisy start up sound and reduces wear on components. The variation of speed also allows for precise control of airflow.
Variable speed motors are typically simple to design and fabricate and are an affordable option for most manufacturers. Consisting of a small motor, a controller and a types of interface, they offer reliable and low maintenance options as there are less replaceable parts than other types of motors. The metal bearings of the motor may need to be replaced after an extended period of time as these components are inevitably subject to wear and tear.
There are numerous advantages to implementing the use of small electric motors and they are used in a wide variety of applications in almost every industry. A variable speed electric motor will create no waste emissions and improve air quality. They are cleaner and less expensive to run than fuel-powered motors and because of their efficiency, variable speed motors also use less electricity on average than a fixed speed motor, thus further saving operating costs for a manufacturer.
They are the preferred motor of choice for many appliances in both commercial and domestic applications where AC power is readily available such as washers, dryers, fans, vacuum cleaners and air-conditioning units.

I have been going here for years and I must say that this is ( to me) the best place for fried catfish in Shreveport. I am never disappointed. The staff is friendly and professional. If I could, I would eat here daily.
My family and I absolutely LOVE this place. When I found out that Johnny's caters, I knew I had to use them for my son's little league end of season banquet. I absolutely love this place the people are so nice and the food is always fantastic! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Johnny's Catfish & Seafood for catering!
Awesome food! I strongly recommend the pot roast! A great second choice is the chicken fried steak. People are friendly and prices are more than reasonable.
We found Johnny's on Yelp on our way through Louisiana and my husband was craving catfish. Johnny's did not disappoint. The service was quick and our server was sweet and attentive. We had a bowl of hush puppies right after we sat down and I struggled not to eat it all, because it was so good!
The lunch menu was great! $8.99 and we left stuffed! We both had the catfish and it was amazing. I also had the purple hull peas and turnip greens, which were delicious. The dessert which came with the lunch menu was German chocolate cake and I loved that too!
Long story short: eat at Johnny's.
Johnny's Catfish has absolutely the best catfish I have ever had. I don't want to be overly dramatic but, doggone it - it is GOOD! I am a veteran of the United States Navy and have had the opportunity to eat all around the world and I promise you, you will not find better catfish than you'll find at Johnny's. Great food, great staff, great period. Try it. You'll like it.
The Place, And The People Are Very Nice . The Food Is Very Good and Service Is Very Good . For Me Personally The Cost Of The Food Is Somewhat On The High Side . But Then Again I Don't Know What Their Overhead Is . They May Have To Charge Those Prices In Order To Make A Profit And Stay In Business . Overall Very Nice.
Love love love the service in this place. Food is hot and fresh and great. We are from Texas and just stopped by after visiting relatives. Will be a regular stop for sure now.
We ordered Catfish , shrimp, fries,cole slaw, beans and hush puppies catering for 20 guest. Everything was nicely in pans and covered. We live about 20 minutes away, however everything was still warm, crispy. The fish and the shrimps was delicious. Everyone ete to satisfaction. My very next party, I'm calling Johnny's Catfish. One of the best decision Ive ever made, Calling JOHNNYS SEAFOOD AND CATFISH. everything was Mmmmmm Mmmmmm good
Delicious food always. It tastes like they made it just for you. It spoils me for eating Seafood at any other place but Johnny's.

Every Council is required to have a Management Plan for each reserve under its control. (Reserves Act, 1977).
The aim is to ensure that the development, management, use and enjoyment of the reserve is based on sound resource management through the involvement of the public expressing their needs.
Management Plans set out the objectives and policies for the park, identified and resolved after a full public process of discussions, submissions and hearings.
Once adopted, the Plan may be changed, but only after another full, open and consultative public process.
The LSB Management Plan was adopted and became operative in December, 1997. A hard copy of the plan can be viewed at the Birkenhead or Northcote Public Library or you can download a PDF document here: Management Plan: Little Shoal Bay and Le Roys Bush Reserves
Contents of the Plan:
Part 1:
- Statutory requirements
- History of the Bay
- Bush environment
- Marine environment
- Landform, stormwater, geology.
- Flora
- Fauna
- Facilities
- Landscape
- Leases / licenses
Part 2:
- Current use
- Future use
- External considerations
Part 3:
This is the really important section setting out the:
- Goals
- Objectives and
- Policies. (pages 32 – 46) These objectives and policies should be adhered to at all times and not be altered by Council or Local Board in any ad hoc way.
These pages (pages 32 – 46) are the most important.
The maps on pages 57, 59 and 61 are also very important and link to the policies and legal matters including the Resource Management Act and Reserves Act.
Other matters:
See page 49 for the outline of the Management Plan Process and page 48 for the Plan Change Procedure if changes to the established are to be undertaken, whether by Council or the Local Board.
These procedures are required to be undertaken by the Reserves Act 1977.

E-mail address...(email@example.com)
Letter 2
Hello My Dearest,
Thanks once again, I am more than happy in your reply to my mail. How was your day? mine was a little bit cool over here in Dakar Senegal. My name is Jenny Nelson Kuru I'm (23) years old still single and never married, I am from Liberia in west Africa and presently, I am residing in the orphanage/refugee camp here in Dakar Senegal, as a result of the civil war going on in my country. I was a first year student of law at the university, before the incident that lead me into this situation of living in the camp.
My late father Late Dr. Ephraim Nelson Kuru was the personal adviser to the former head of states, also a successful business man import and exporter of Cocoa during his life time, before the rebels attacked my house one early morning killing my mother and my father. Equally my mother was six months pregnant and a senior lecturer at the university before her death, it's only me that is alive now because I am the only child to my parents, and I managed to make my way with the help of UN to near by country Senegal, where I am leaving now. I wish to contact you personally for a long term relationship and assistance that might lead us further,based on your desire. Please keep this issue only for yourself for now. Meanwhile my late father deposited the sum of $2.5M (Two Million five hundred thousand United State Dollars). in a Finance Firm with my name as the next of kin before his death. However, I will forward you with the necessary information's of the deposit on confirmation of your acceptance to assist me for the transfer of the fund in your country.
I would like to know more about you. Your likes and dislikes, as I love cooking, handball, singing,karaoke, reading,etc. I don't like dishonest people. Your hobbies and what you are doing presently. I will tell more about myself in my next mail. Attached here is my picture and I will like to see yours. Thanks I am hoping to hear from you soonest.
Miss. Jenny.
Letter 3
Hello My Dear,
How are you doing today? Hope all is well. I am more than happy in your reply to my mail. It is very cold now over here in DakarSenegal. In this orphanage/refugee camp, we are only allowed to go out only once in every week. Its just like one staying in the prison and I hope by God grace I will come out here soon. I am allowed by cardinal to use church internet office two times a day to check my mail because he knows about my situation here in the camp we are not allow to go out. If you call me i will be the most happiest woman on earth because i want to hear your voice.
I don't have any relatives now whom I can go to all my relatives ran away in the middle of the war the only person I have now is Cardinal Cypril Kwesi, who is the Cardinal-Priest of (S. Lucia a Piazza d'Armi) here in the camp, he has been very nice to me since I came here but I am not living with him rather I am leaving in the woman's hostel because the camp have two hostels one for men the other for women. For your information age are numbered and more so age will never be a bearer to any relationship.
The Cardinal office telephone number is (+221-774476718) please when you call ask of Miss Jenny Nelson Kuru from Liberia and tell him that you want to speak with me he will send for me in the hostel. Here is where I am sending you email at church office. As a refugee here I don't have any right or privilege to any thing be it money or whatever because it is against the law of this country. I want to go back to my studies because I only attended my first year before the tragic incident that lead to my being in this situation now took place. I was present when i saw my mother killed with 6months pregnant.
Please listen to this I have my late father's Deposit certificate and death certificate here with me which I will send to you later, because when he was alive he deposited some amount of money in a leading bank in Europe which he used my name as the next of kin, the amount in question is $2.5M (Two Million five hundred thousand United State Dollars). Already I have informed this bank about my intention to claim my late father's deposit. The bank told me to look for a foreign partner who will assist me in the transfer due to my refugee status here, as a refugee I am not allowed direct claim of the money but through an appointed representative as the united refugee law governing refugee all over the world states. So I will like you to help me transfer this money to your account and from it you can send some money for me to get my traveling documents and air ticket to come over to meet you in your country. I kept this secret to people in the camp here the only person that knows about it is you and me.
However, in the light of above I will like you to keep it to yourself and don't tell it to anyone because I am afraid of loosing my life and the money if people get to know about it. Remember I am giving you all this information due to the trust I deposed on you. I like honest and understanding people, truthful and a man of vision, trustworthy and hardworking. My favorite language is English. Meanwhile I will like you to call me like I said, from 12.30noon to 4.30pm(12.30Gmt-16.30Gmt), I have a lot to tell you. Have a nice day and think about me. Waiting to hear from you soonest. I am attaching my picture again for you to see me. Please send me yours to know you too.
Yours Sincerely,
Miss Jenny.

Letter 6
Hello my dear,

seeing these people FLY down scary fast snow hills where they can fall at the drop of a hat, AND DO!!, is just too much for me to handle.
i am not a fan.
on a positive note...
shows that do not stress me out:
keeping up with the kardashians, the finale
i love the kardashians. i think it's because they kinda, sorta remind me of my family - not because we're rich and gorgeous and successful, but because we have dark hair, my sister and i have a younger brother that could resemble rob aaand we're hilarious. now if i can only figure out how to translate these uncanny similarities into the same life.
oh, one difference i do acknowledge...not having a doucher face boyfriend like scott. seriously, why is he always wearing those lame ass suits and shoulder sweaters?! fuck those sweaters.
sidenote: on more than three hundred occasions, i have been told i look like kourtney - is my hair line really that low!? guess so...
guiliana and bill
i don't know why but i like these two together. and she speaks italian and that makes me envy her. duh.
house hunters
um, yeah. im sure i need not explain this one. its right up there with property virgins, for rent, moving up, etCETera.
the deep end
has everyone started watching this show yet? it's basically the law version of grey's anatomy and i loves it. best feature: the chick from corrina, corrina is all grown up and the cutest little lawyer ever. i keep hoping she turns a stoplight green by blowing at it...
chick apparently = tina majorino, also in napoleon dynamite.
spindustry, the premiere
this show is completely lame. it is dumb and dum and just plain dumm. buuut, it does allow me to perfect my LA valley girl accent. just copy these people and you're well on your way to becoming famous for no reason! voila! HOH MAI GAWD!
isn't this guy kojo?!
why does everyone in hollywood look the same?

If you're too young to remember Barry Bonds's playing career, you probably mostly associate him with various controversies. But putting side the legitimacy of his records, the guy was unbelievable. It wasn't just the homers: In his early career he was a constant 30-30 threat with his speed/power combo. And during his record-setting twilight seasons, his stats were obscene. He had a .609 OBP in 2004, a season in which he hit "only" 45 dingers.
And now that he's the Marlins' hitting coach, he's started reminding everyone that he's the all-time home run king:
Barry Bonds just beat the Marlins players on a back field HR BP contest. Including Stanton.— Craig Mish (@CraigMish) March 16, 2016
He may be skinnier now, but Barry Bonds could probably still bat cleanup for most major league teams.

2017 NAIA Competitive Cheer & Dance National Championships ? Title Recap
Story by NAIA National Office, Photos by Josh Robinson
OKLAHOMA CITY – Midland (Neb.) and Oklahoma City held their No. 1 team position after the preliminary rounds and took home the national championship titles today at the NAIA Competitive Cheer & Dance (CCD) National Championships. Also announced at the event were Coach of the Year winners as Kate Edge of Concordia (Mich.) won it in the Cheer category and Midland (Neb.) Head Coach Trish Ryan was recognized on the dance side.
Today marked the first-ever National Championship in the two sports. The NAIA is the only collegiate athletics association to offer a national championship in these sports.
Midland dance again maintained control in all phases of choreography and formations. The Warriors posted nearly a five-point edge after prelims yesterday and held that momentum through today's finals. The winning score of 91.38 was enough for Midland to take home the championship red banner for the first time in Association history.
"The team was solid from stretch, to warm ups to the final performance today," said Midland coach Trish Ryan, the 2017 NAIA Dance Coach of the Year. "They truly relaxed into their preparation, and came out with a solid performance."
I feel such pride in this win as it claims a moment in history – the NAIA is the first-ever athletic association to recognize cheer and dance as official sports. There have been many coaches that have made this possible, and I am so happy with the support that the CCD executive committee and championship manager Hannah Harmon has provided to make this possible. At the end of the day, whether win or lose, these athletes were successful"
Aquinas (Mich.) (86.63) and Baker (Kan.) (85.78) finished the Dance competition in second and third place, respectively.
In the cheer competition, the top three cheer teams all held their rankings from the prelim round through today's finals. Oklahoma City edged out Saint Francis (Ind.) by an 87.08-82.93 margin to earn the NAIA National Championship. Davenport (Mich.) wrapped up the day with a third-place finish with 80.97 points.
"Obviously I was very pleased with our team's performance," said Oklahoma City head coach Alicia Bailey. "We're very excited to win the first ever NAIA national championship. It makes it even that much sweeter that it's at home in front of our friends and family. The kids put a lot of work in this year and everything paid off today."
We finally have recognition for our hard work and our athletes. We have always known that our sport was athletic and it's exciting to be recognized like all the other sports. The event ran extremely smoothly and I heard great feedback from all the coaches."
On Friday, preliminary scores counted towards 25 percent of a team's overall score. Each team then performed Saturday in the finals where scores counted for 75 percent of the total score.
The event took place on the campus of Oklahoma City University at Abe Lemons Arena.

Meant For Me???December 1st, 2010 in blog, member junk
A while back I had the good fortune of being able to dig around at an old house that was scheduled to be burned. This rack/sorting thing was over a work bench out in the workshop. From first sight I knew it would make a perfect wine rack...unfortunatley I also "knew" it would be too big for my little bar area. So after a good cleaning, a little paint and some distressing...I carted him all over town trying to find it a good home at one of the venue's I was a part of this last year. No takers. So then he took up residence in my garage for a while. As I was cleaning him up for yet another sale...I decided to finally move a few other things off my bar and at least give him a try. And what do ya know...it was a perfect fit. I guess it really was meant for me...

Hi. My name is Sylvia, aka SylFabulous and I have been online as a blogger for a good 20 years now. I'm a pretty seasoned internet resident, and as we all know, the nets are a breeding ground for a plethora of constant evolution. So I'm back, after a pretty long personal hiatus and focusing on making other people money and great SEO ratings, to finally diving back in and expressing myself, as again, things have changed. Here's kind of a quick roundup:
All About SylG. My very first blog was an art site by the name of HookerDust.com – it used to be my blank canvas to display my digital art, and really that's about all. I had a pretty stressful job as a very young, very green Art Director at a few different internet startups ranging from Digital Latino, Digital Imagination, Simian Group and a few others that no longer are around. I learned a bunch about html, photoshop and animated gifs and optimized graphics.
My next online venture was a joint business venture with my amazingly bright and cutting edge business partner and close friend OJ Smith. We launched FunkMedia, and are still going strong. As you can see from our portfolio, we worked with everyone from Beyonce to Oprah, Emerson Knives to Celebrity nutritionist Jennifer Cassetta, to gospel performance artists Mary Mary and local small businesses for over 15 years. It's a great boutique agency now, and we have grown to offering a multitude of solutions from e-commerce platforms, to digital marketing and social media strategy and UX front end design. Check us out here.
Around 2008, the housing market was booming, and wordpress was getting super easy to use, so I switched from my Live Journal platform and launched Spa-View.com – with quickly growing youtube tutorials, spa reviews, destination coverage and one of the first pioneers to monetize a blog and actually show revenue, it lasted (with fantastic SEO Google ratings) for about 2 years.What happened shortly after is a pretty basic story, with a personal challenge that would change me forever.
At 37 years old, some of the products that I was getting sent for product reviews started causing allergic reactions. I started having burning skin, strange breakouts, and I had developed some allergies or reactions that I just was not comfortable with. I had to stop blogging, and focus on getting healthy. I left Spa-View as ignored as a college – purchased Coach bag, and moved on with my healthy life.
Now at 45 years old, I have re-discovered my blogging activity, quite naturally, on Instagram. You can follow me here btw – and have been sharing my newfound life changes that are happening to me as a 45 year old Internet professional in this new social media world.
I'm very well versed on all platforms, and it really feels great to finally have a home of my own again now. So here's my new venture, at a new stage in my life, and hope to connect with like minded content creators as we continue on our digital journey and explore all that is out there.
Lets Connect?
Sure thing! You can contact me directly here: Let's get good together!

There is no guaranteed way to prevent breakouts of pimples on your chin or anywhere else. However, learning to care for this acne-prone area can reduce the frequency of breakouts, as well as their duration and severity. This usually can be accomplished without any expensive products. If you experience more than occasional pimples, see a dermatologist for advice and possibly a prescription to help control your facial acne.
Wash your face twice -- and only twice -- every day, in the morning and at night. Make an exception only after perspiring or getting dirty. Massage a gentle, alcohol-free soap into your chin with your fingers, rather than scrubbing it, using lukewarm water to wet and rinse your skin. Pat the skin dry with a clean towel.
Shampoo your hair nightly and use a product designed for oily hair and scalp, if necessary, because you can unknowingly spread this oil onto your face and chin. If you have long hair, hold it back with a hair clip, tie or other accessory to keep it off your chin during the day. This is particularly important if you use gels, sprays or other hair products. Avoid spraying your chin when applying these.
Purchase moisturizers, makeup and other skin products you apply to your chin that are labeled non-acnegenic or non-comedogenic. Use powdered makeup rather than creams or oil-based products that easily clog pores. Remove the makeup from your chin and face completely before bed.
Apply a facial acne cleansing product made with benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid as recommended on the package or by your dermatologist.
Refrain from touching your chin so you don't spread dirt and oil there. Never pop any pimples that do appear there, because this can worsen an acne condition, cause an infection and even leave a scar.

This sermon was given by Geoff Pound at ABC on 1 May 2016. It is part of the 'Resurrection People' series which is also accompanied by Study Notes for group discussion and personal study. Here is the link to Study 6 which is based on this Scripture passage.
Reading: Acts 16:6-15
Nathaniel Hawthorne worked at the Customs House at Salem, Massachusetts but he loathed the place. He hated his work. He detested everything associated with it. To escape from the horrible memories of the daytime, he wrote stories at night.[1]
Some years later, he lost his job. When he came home and told his wife that he'd been retrenched he was absolutely devastated. But his wife, Sophia, was elated. "Your opportunity has come at last," she cried, "Now you can be an author by profession!"
He seized a manuscript that he'd written in his spare time, took it to a publisher and in a few months his first novel was published. 'The Scarlet Letter' was an instant best seller. So began his fulltime writing career.
It often happens like this. When one door closes another fruitful door may open. Closed and open doors were certainly the experience of the early church.
Acts 16: 6 says:
6 Paul and his companions traveled throughout the region of Phrygia and Galatia, having been kept by the Holy Spirit from preaching the word in the province of Asia.
There's no detail here as to how they were muzzled but they were up against a closed door. But driving them on was this centrifugal force knowing that the Gospel was good news to be shared with others. Luke says:
7 When they came to the border of Mysia, they tried to enter Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus would not allow them to.
How perplexing to be stymied again but instead of complaining they displayed a momentum. They believed that a door of opportunity would open.
8 So they passed by Mysia and went down to Troas.
I wonder how long they spent in this confusing zone. Becalmed. Treading water. Bamboozled.
If you've ever made a wrong decision, take some consolation from these early believers who went down one route after another that turned out to be No Through Road. You've started a course of study or a job and then found you didn't like it or were not good at it. Don't beat yourself up. Don't think all that time was wasted. It's not the end. You're in good company.
The Bible is full of closed-door cameos. From Joseph in the pit of slavery to Daniel and his mates locked up with the lions, to the Prodigal Son eating husks from the pig trough, the sound of closed doors clank through the chapters of the Bible.
Perhaps we applied for a position. We stood for election but the response was in the negative. It's such a hard thing to swallow just when the doors slam in your face. Yet this is the very time when trust in the nailed up Christ is needed. For in the inky darkness there comes the light. Luke says:
16:9 During the night Paul had a vision: there stood a man of Macedonia pleading with him and saying, "Come over to Macedonia and help us."
First they were guided by the circumstances of closed doors.
Now they were being guided by a vision given to Paul. Or were they? Some people get crazy ideas at night. How did they know this was fair dinkum and not the result of Paul snacking on blue vein cheese before he went to sleep?
The safety clause is in verse 10:
When he had seen the vision, we immediately tried to cross over to Macedonia, being convinced that God had called us to proclaim the good news to them.
While Paul might have seen this vision, it was the group that discerned. It was the group that had the sense of rightness. It was the group that was convinced before they set sail.
Maybe if they'd had a committee meeting and knocked together a Mission Statement they might never have made the jump across the water. They might have said: "We need to focus our efforts in this region. It's too soon to venture forth into new countries especially with new cultures and new languages. We need to consolidate." Sound familiar?
Just as well the Spirit of God was guiding this group. The Spirit gave them flexibility. The Spirit makes us pliable. The Spirit opens us up to surprising new directions.
I wonder if God is calling us to take a new direction as a church? We've been moving predictably, incrementally, following the familiar furrow but maybe there's a surprising new vision God wants us to follow.
Like a careful journalist Luke has been writing his Gospel and the Acts. His writing is accurate, objective and in the third person:
When they came to the border of Mysia, they tried to enter Bithynia. (v7)
Now Luke has a slip of the pen when he writes:
When he had seen the vision, we immediately tried to cross over to Macedonia. (v10)
We! So Luke is in the group! Luke is part of this discernment! This is an eye-witness account. Luke was part of this history-making group that was now taking the Gospel to Europe for the very first time!
16:11 We set sail from Troas and took a straight course to Samothrace, the following day to Neapolis,
Instead of striking head winds or being blown off course they 'took a straight course'. This is where a decision gets further divine approval. This is the rightness of the Spirit. The Spirit is blowing their sails with the spinnaker billowing beyond the bow.
When they landed they went to Philippi, a strategic city, they started meeting with Jewish believers and with the women at a place of prayer (12-13).
From big, regional matters Luke now zooms down to focus on a key person:
16:14 A certain woman named Lydia, a worshiper of God, was listening to us; she was from the city of Thyatira and a dealer in purple cloth. The Lord opened her heart to listen eagerly to what was said by Paul.
The marketing expert Seth Godin has written a best selling book called The Purple Cow. His thesis is simple. He says if you're driving through farmland when you see brown Jersey cows or black and white Friesians you think nothing of it. But if you see a purple cow you stop the car. You all get out and take photos! Because purple cows are remarkable.
The key to any thriving organisation is to find a way to stand out positively, to be the purple cow in a paddock of monochrome Herefords. You've got to have distinction to avoid extinction.
So what are the purple features about Lydia that makes her truly remarkable?
Firstly she was culturally adept. She was international. She'd come from the city of Thyatira in Asia (modern day Turkey) where Paul and his crew had just sailed from. She would have to be proficient with the local language to do business.
Secondly, in a man's world she was a successful business woman: 'A dealer in purple cloth'.
If the distinctive things about Melbourne include the trams, the laneways, the sport, the arts and the coffee, the remarkable things about Thyatira were the cloth making and dyeing. Thyatira was the centre for the indigo trade. Lydia sold purple cloth from her own city. Her business card probably read: "I am dyeing to cloth you!"
Thirdly, she was an eager listener. This is mentioned twice in one verse:
A certain woman named Lydia, a worshiper of God, was listening to us… The Lord opened her heart to listen eagerly to what was said by Paul.
An eager listener makes a good leader and a good business person but she also was listening eagerly to what the Spirit of God was saying.
Fourthly, even though she was successful in business and a regular worshiper of God at the synagogue, she sensed there was something missing. There was a Christ-shaped blank in Lydia's life.
When Paul and his team told them about God coming in flesh and blood in the person of Jesus, about his countercultural teaching of love, his rejection and his death on the cross but that God had raised him to life and over 500 had seen him, Lydia was so responsive. This message had her name written all over it. She sensed the Lord opening her heart. She said: "I want to accept and follow this Jesus."
"To show that you're absolutely fair dinkum," they said, "You've got to be baptized in water. Do you understand what that is?"
Lydia probably said, "Of course I do. That's what I do with my cloth. That's exactly the word that I say to my dyers— 'baptizo'—they are to baptize, to totally immerse the white cloth into the purple waters."
So Lydia was courageously baptized before others and as she emerged she displayed her beautiful colours. Her total immersion symbolized her total allegiance to Jesus. She would forever wear the colours of Christ.
Fifthly, not only Lydia but her family.
Luke says: "16:15 When she and her household were baptized."
Just a few days ago, news hurtled around the world saying that 'Prince' had died. Hasn't it been amazing to see the outpouring of grief at his death, not the least in iconic buildings around the world, including our own Arts Centre Spire being lit up in his favourite colour purple and recalling his popular song, 'Purple Rain'?
The tributes noted his many awards and celebrated his prolific song writing, his virtuoso playing of the guitar, the keyboards and percussion.
He said when he was inducted into the 'Rock and Roll Hall of Fame':
"When I started out in the music industry, I was most concerned with freedom. Freedom to produce, freedom to play all the instruments on my records, freedom to say anything that I wanted to."[2]
So his music defied genre. He shaped his career his way. He battled with the usual practices. He created his own mold.
In just about every other account it says: "He and his household were baptized." The family followed the father. Here we see that Lydia was not only a leader in business but a leader in her family. She defied the usual practices. Lydia exploded conventions like the remarkable Christ she was now following.
The sixth and final remarkable feature about Lydia was the way her faith became active and visible:
16:15 When she and her household were baptized, she urged us, saying, "If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come and stay at my home." And she prevailed upon us.
She urged us. Sense her passion? She prevailed upon us. Catch her spirit? Her faith saw the need and she threw open her front door, her fridge and her family table and her friendship.
So today we're being called to be sensitive to closed and open doors, to see surprising visions. To listen out for the urgent cries.
We're being called to be purple people. Adaptable, responsive, good at our work, courageous followers of Jesus who aren't afraid to show his true colours, people who crack conventions and demonstrate their faith with urgency and passion and practical hospitality.

Who watches This Is Us?? I just started a couple days ago.. is it a give-in that I am going to cry every single episode or does that stop at some point… but holy moly what a great show. If you haven't started watching it– start. Unless you don't feel like ugly crying, then definitely do NOT watch it.
Anyways, this week I've had some extra un-planned days off (leaving my old job and starting my new one on Monday) so i've been able to workout a lot more, and a lot harder than normal. Which has been amazing but I am SO sore today, so i'm taking a much needed rest day. Rest days are SO important.. not only for the obvious physical recovery but also mental recovery. Your brain needs a break just as much as your muscles. It's easy to get burnt out, bored, or fall off the wagon completely if you never stop and rest. As much as I'm saying this to you guys- i'm also saying it to myself. It's hard for me to take rest days. I love exercising so much and it's been such a HUGE part of my life for so long that not doing some type of workout is weird for me, but I also know that I can push myself too hard and end up hurting myself.
Here's the workout's I've done this week so far:
MONDAY: Park workout. I took Harper to the park in the morning, set my timer for 20 minutes and just did a bunch of random stuff non-stop (box jumps on a bench, burpees, crunches, lunge jumps, pushups, dips etc) it doesn't need to be complicated, just keep moving!
TUESDAY: Orange Theory Fitness workout. If you haven't tried OTF yet, give it a shot— your first class is free and it's an awesome workout. You'll run, row and lift some weights- all while watching your heart rate and how many calories you're burning compared to everyone else in the class, so if you're competitive like me, it's fun to push yourself. I ended up burning close to 600 calories and left a sweaty mess which I love.
WEDNESDAY: Gym workout. I did 6 sets of barbell squats, starting with low weight and going up to my last set of 6×105. 4 sets of hip thrusts with 25lb plate, 3 sets of bulgarian squats with 25lbs, and 6 sets of glute/hamstring curls.
Later in the afternoon Stephen got home from work early so we went for a 2.5 mile run.
FRIDAY: Planning on doing Orange Theory again!
Hope you guys have gotten in some great workouts so far, but remember to take breaks too 🙂

Metaphysical Thought in SF and Utopia, Society for Utopian Studies, Milwaukee, October 28-31, 2010 (June 21 deadline)
Papers are invited for one or more panels that explore relationships between the broad genre of sf and utopia and the broad category of metaphysical thought and belief. Historical or theoretical approaches from any discipline are welcome. Papers that touch on the theme of this year's conference—civil rights, social justice, and the Midwest—are especially encouraged.
Relationships between religion and utopian intentional communities are well documented, and the importance of religion in pre-20th century literary utopias (beginning with More's original) is clear. In the 20th century, religion and metaphysics came to be associated with the dangers of mass ideologies and frequently played a prominent role in dystopian literature. With the development of more nuanced genres at the end of the century—critical utopias, critical dystopias, post-apocalyptic utopias, and so on—the role of religion, spirituality, and metaphysical thought becomes more complicated.
Questions to address might include (but are not limited to): Does contemporary speculative fiction serve a cultural function similar to earlier writing in theology, mysticism, or other metaphysical modes? Do religion, spirituality, or metaphysical thought and belief of any kind have a "legitimate" place in "the desire called utopia"? What roles have metaphysical thought or belief played in sf and utopian genres (including dystopias) or in particular authors or texts? How are religious or spiritual concepts used to theorize the critical challenges of modern life and/or the principles of hope entailed by utopia, and what are the effects of this theoretical cross-fertilization?
Send proposals of 100 to 250 words by June 21, 2010 to Gib Prettyman at firstname.lastname@example.com.
About the conference: Founded in 1975, The Society for Utopian Studies is an international, interdisciplinary association devoted to the study of utopianism in all its forms, with a particular emphasis on literary and experimental utopias. Scholars representing a wide variety of disciplines are active in the association, and approach utopian studies from such diverse backgrounds as American Studies, Architecture, the Arts, Classics, Cultural Studies, Economics, Engineering, Environmental Studies, Gender Studies, History, Languages and Literatures, Philosophy, Political Science, Psychology, Sociology and Urban Planning. The annual SUS conference is a stimulating and welcoming place for scholars of all levels to share their work. More information about this year's conference in Milwaukee can be found on the Society's website at http://www.utoronto.ca/utopia/meetings.html
