This was a stage design created for FBC Lafayette's Youth DiscipleNow. Using 10′ wide Taipei Silk from Dazian Fabrics, they created an awesome backdrop flown from their 40′ ceiling. Although you cant see it very well in the photos, they used 4'x8' sheets of white coroplast hung in a random pattern used as an additional projection screen/backdrop.
For the light pillars they used 4'X8′ sheets of natural coroplast scored on one side, every foot and folded into a 1′ square column. Then set atop an LED wash light and voila! an awesome LED column.
Originally from March 22, 2010.

New Orleans forward Jackson Vroman is expected to miss the rest of the season with a broken right wrist, Hornets coach Byron Scott said Thursday.BETHANY, Okla. — New Orleans forward Jackson Vroman is expected to miss the rest of the season with a broken right wrist, Hornets coach Byron Scott said Thursday.
Jackson Vroman
NO/Oklahoma City Hornets
41 1.8 2.1 0.3 39.394 47.727
Vroman injured the wrist when he went up for a two-handed dunk Wednesday against Utah, then fell from the rim to the floor and put both arms behind his back to try to cushion his fall.
"It wasn't a good break," Scott said. "He's got to get a plate in there and everything."
Scott said Vroman, who was averaging 1.8 points and 2.1 rebounds, was expected to be out 10 weeks, which would put him out the rest of the season.
Three other Hornets players are expected back Saturday when New Orleans completes a home-and-home series against Utah.
Scott said backup point guard Speedy Claxton, who missed his first game since November after spraining his left ankle Tuesday at Indiana, and starting forward Desmond Mason, who bruised his tailbone Wednesday against Utah, are both "pretty confident" they will return.
He said forward David West, the team's top scorer and rebounder, should be back at practice Friday after taking two games off to be with his wife and newborn child.
"Hopefully Saturday we'll be pretty much full strength," Scott said. "We'll have some bumps and bruises. Those guys won't be at 100 percent probably, but they'll be in uniform and ready to play."
After practice Thursday, point guard Chris Paul wore a wrap around his left shoulder, which he hurt when he slammed into Blazers center Ha Seung-Jin in New Orleans' final game before the All-Star break.
Paul has played in both of New Orleans' games after the break, averaging 22.5 points.
"I still think he's got a little bit of a stinger in that shoulder so he's going to continue to get treatment on that and ice it down more for precautionary reasons than anything," Scott said. "Right now, he's just trying to prevent that thing from flaring back up and going back to where it was at the beginning."

Paris, France, City of Light and Angels
This post may contain affiliate links for products I recommend. If you click a link and buy something I may receive some compensation. This does not change the price you would pay.
The City of Light and Angels
After we left Nice we headed for Paris, France, City of Light! First we stopped off to see a dear friend in Voiron and have dinner with her and her darling family. Voiron is near Grenoble so it's by the Swiss Alps and has spectacular views of them. The train ride from Nice to Voiron was just breathtaking! And the ride to Paris also! We were so glad our friends told us the best way to get to our apartment in the 17th Arrondissement or I'm not sure we would have ever found it! Paris is so large it has 5 major train stations! But we got a taxi and did find it, and settled in for one of our most fun 9 days in Europe! Photo is one of the statues at the end of the Pont d'Alexandre. (Alexander Bridge)
Paris is just mesmerizing! We might have picked a better time though as the day before we got there was the day that terrorists chose to gun down the journalists at the Charlie Hebdo office. So the whole city was on edge and the Eiffel tower closed down for 2 weeks so we didn't get to climb to the top. I was really upset about that! But of course that could be a target so I understand why. There was a marked police presence in the city too.
And in fact there was a horrible incident while we were there too, a bomb in the subway close to Notre Dame! I was so angry that those Muslim terrorists were trying to hurt people and beautiful buildings in the magnificence of Paris! It put everyone on edge, not just the police. We still rode the subways everywhere but were nervous. And it seemed like everyone was watching everyone else with fear. We tried to ignore it, but it was impossible to miss.
Paris, France, City of Light
Still, it's Paris! Nothing can completely detract from its beauty. It's an Art Nouveau dream! The whole city is decorated in Art Nouveau, the buildings, the monuments, the bridges, the signs, even the lamp posts! I have never seen so many beautiful lamp posts. Here is one of them outside of Notre Dame Cathedral.
And no, it's not called the City of Light, (or City of Lights) because of all the beautiful lamp posts, at least not completely. They say it is called the City of Light for 2 reasons, one because of its leading role during the Age of Enlightenment, and more literally because Paris was one of the first European cities to adopt gas street lighting. So those beautiful lamp posts do have something to do with it after all. Here is a photo I took of one of the lamp posts on the Pont d'Alexandre looking toward the Eiffel Tower. I love how it turned out.

There is so much to do a person could get overwhelmed just trying to figure out where to go and what to do, so we splurged and got the 2 day bus tour so we could hop on and off at any point of interest any time we wanted. It's appropriately named the Hop On Hop Off Tour Bus. You can catch it on the Champs-Élysées. The bus tour even stops at the Louvre and the Musee D'Orsay, so it saves on subway fare or taxi fare too. We took a day in each of those fantastic museums; we're both artists so they were high on our list of places to see. Both were awesome in different ways. Unfortunately, you can't take photos of the art in either one, as it might ruin it. But we have our memories!
Of course we had to see the Eiffel tower in daylight and at night. It was towards the end of the Christmas season so they would light up the tower like a Christmas tree for about 30 minutes every night in addition to the regular lights. (This photo was snapped with my iPhone.) We also saw all the famous buildings and churches. We stayed near the Champs-Élysées and the Arc de Triomphe so got to see them every day on our way to the subway station. Here is another one of the Eiffel Tower I took while waiting for the bus. I made it into a poster that you can buy. Just click on the poster to see all the options.

I made this one into a poster too, and I like the effect of the tree branches around the stark steel of the tower.

Below is the Place de la Concorde's huge Ferris Wheel, and the Obelisk decorated with hieroglyphs exalting the reign of King Ramses II. The Luxor Obelisk is over 3,000 years old and was originally situated outside of Luxor Temple, where its twin remains to this day. It first arrived in Paris on December 21, 1833. It was a gift from Egypt's Muhammed Ali, Khedive of Egypt. Look at all the beautiful lamp posts surrounding it. The Ferris Wheel is a famous landmark of Paris too and I remember riding it when I was a little girl living in France.
Chartres Cathedral, in a suburb of Paris
We also spent a day at Notre Dame Cathedral, and took a day to go down to the town of Chartre to see the famous stained glass windows of that beautiful cathedral too. We loved every single minute of our Paris visit. Below are photos of Chartre Cathedral. The stained glass in Chartre was actually taken out and hidden during World War II so it would not be ruined. But despite years of study, the process for making it has been lost to history. It contains bits of gold which is why it is particularly luminous.
Not to mention the food in Paris! Oh my God, the food. I don't think there is any bad food in Paris. Every little coffee shop has unbelievable pastries and coffee!
It's called the City of Light, but I call it the City of Light and Angels. There are Angels everywhere! All over the churches, all over the buildings, the ceilings, the train stations, on the lamp posts, they're everywhere! I could definitely live in Paris! What a spectacular city!!! I think it was my favorite big city in Europe. We didn't want to leave! But we had to, so we decided to take a long train ride to Barcelona next, for some warmth. Stay tuned!
Photo is an Angel in the hand of the statue at the end of the Pont d'Alexandre. (Alexander bridge) I snapped it every time the bus went by but the bus movement made it hard to get one that wasn't blurry, and on about the 8th try I finally got this one that I really love.
A word about getting around Paris. Its actually pretty easy to get around Paris. The metro goes everywhere, even to train stations. And there is an intercity train too. If you stay near the Champs-Élysées you will be near both the metro and the intercity train. Go into a station and get a schedule. They always have an English speaker there to help you. Trains and metro trains leave every few minutes to everywhere you want to go. You can easily get taxis too, and buses. We never ended up taking any buses except the Hop On Hop Off bus though, as the metros are so cheap and easy to navigate.
Photo is one more of the stained glass panels at Chartres Cathedral. All of these photos of Chartres were taken with no flash, because none is allowed, so that might give you an idea of how rich and beautiful the color of the stained glass really is.
Do you see why I call it Paris, France, City of Light and Angels?

Ankeny, Iowa, March 22, 2018—April is National Soyfoods Month, a time for celebrating the versatility, sustainability and all-around high satisfaction factor of tofu comfort food recipes. Soyfoods are affordable, readily available ingredients that make it easy to incorporate plant protein into your favorite recipes. Like other soyfoods that provide approximately 7 to 15 grams of high-quality protein per serving, tofu is a complete protein. It offers all eight of the essential amino acids needed for healthy growth, without the large amount of saturated fat that typically comes with animal sources of protein. Tofu is especially versatile because it comes in several forms. In fact, it just might qualify as an emerging American comfort food.
Silken tofu works well for party dips, creamy soups, smoothies and rich desserts. Water-packed tofu (available in soft, firm and extra-firm textures) can be added to casseroles, stir-fry dishes or pastas and salads. It's also a favorite for grilling season.
National Soyfoods Month in April is the ideal time for discovering tofu's comfort food potential. Think of it as soymilk's cheese equivalent. Tofu is bean curd, made from soymilk. In Asia, tofu has been a staple since ancient times, with its use in ancient China going back more than 2,000 years.
Tofu itself is bland, and comes in a variety of textures that lend themselves to numerous comfort-food recipes. Tofu takes on flavors, and can be marinated, basted, baked, fried, grilled, crumbled, used in cheesecakes and other desserts, in creamy salad dressings, soups and in vegetable dishes. Here are some ideas from The Soyfoods Council.
Get out your air fryer and have some tofu fun: Next time you're entertaining, offer your guests a protein rich, flavor-packed snack of Tofu Bites. They're tiny bursts of flavor made with firm water-packed tofu. Drain the tofu, press out extra liquid and cut tofu into cubes. Marinate the tofu in any prepared sweet and spicy sauce you prefer. Just before guests arrive, roll the marinated tofu in panko breadcrumbs and cook for 6 minutes in the air fryer, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking time.
Meat lovers rejoice: Creamy Lemon Poppy Seed Salad Dressing made with tofu is the perfect complement for luxurious steak dinners. To make the dressing, simply combine soft silken tofu is combined with mayonnaise, soybean oil, Dijon mustard, brown sugar, fresh and bottled lemon juices, lemon zest and poppy seeds. Toss with salad greens of choice. If you prefer pork to beef, try "Creamy" Mango Habañero Dressing, made with soft silken tofu, ripe mangos, minced half (or whole) habañero chile, lime juice, tamari soy sauce, honey and soybean oil, seasoned to taste with salt and pepper. In a blender, puree all ingredients except soybean oil and the salt and pepper. With the blender still running, slowly add the oil to emulsify, and then adjust seasoning to taste. Serve a salad of mixed greens, avocado, hearts of plan and red peppers with a main course of Jamaican jerk pork.
Fire up the grill and prepare for a tofu revelation: Extra-firm water-packed tofu and grills were made for each other. Because tofu takes on other flavors such as marinades or barbecue sauces, it's a quick, cholesterol-free food to add to an outdoor grill or make in a grill pan on the stove. The Soyfoods Council offers recipes such as Grilled Tofu Fries, Grilled Tofu BLTs, and Grilled Tofu with Chimichurri Sauce and Grilled Garlic Bread. For tofu fries, drain and pat dry extra-firm water-packed tofu. Slice the tofu into ½-inch french fry shapes, lay the slices on a platter, and pour ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce over them. Transfer to another platter and brush with soybean oil or your vegetable oil of choice. Place tofu fries on a preheated grill. Grill for 3 to 4 minutes, then turn and grill for another 3 to 4 minutes. Serve with warmed barbecue sauce for dipping.
Don't scrimp on dessert: Silken tofu adds a luxurious note to comfort food classic desserts such as cheesecake and mousse. Decadent Chocolate Tofu Cheesecake, for example, combines a chocolate graham cracker crumb crust with a filling of melted bittersweet chocolate bars, soy cream cheese, extra-firm tofu, sugar, cocoa, eggs and vanilla extract. The cheesecake is baked for 60 to 70 minutes, and then served with drizzles of melted white and dark chocolate.
For details about tofu and other soyfoods, visit the Soyfoods Council website at www.thesoyfoodscouncil.com. You'll also find recipes, ideas for incorporating more soyfoods into your diet, nutrition information, cooking tips and the latest research about the health benefits of soyfoods.
About the Soyfoods Council: The Soyfoods Council is a non-profit organization, created and funded by Iowa soybean farmers, providing a complete resource to increase awareness of soyfoods, educate and inform media, healthcare professionals, consumers and the retail and foodservice market about the many benefits of soyfoods. Iowa is the country's number one grower of soybeans and is the Soyfoods Capital of the world.
About the Role of Soyfoods in a Healthful Diet: Soyfoods have played an important role in Asian cuisines for centuries. In recent years they have become popular in Western countries because of their nutrition and health properties. Soyfoods are excellent sources of high-quality protein and provide a healthy mix of polyunsaturated fat. In addition, independent of their nutrient content, there is very intriguing evidence indicating soyfoods reduce risk of several chronic diseases including coronary heart disease, osteoporosis and certain forms of cancer. All individuals are well advised to eat a couple of servings of soyfoods every day.
- 1 12-ounce package Mori-Nu soft silken tofu, drained well
- 2 ripe mangos, peeled, roughly chopped
- 1/2 to 1 fresh habanero chile, minced (depending on how spicy you want it)
- Juice of 2 limes
- 2 tablespoons tamari soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1/2 cup soybean oil
- Salt and pepper
- Combine first 6 ingredients in a medium mixing bowl. Blend to puree with a hand wand or in a blender. Slowly add oil to emulsify while still blending. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Served over mixed local greens with avocados, hearts of palm, red peppers and Jamaican jerk pork

A Transportation Security Administration employee screens baggage at LaGuardia Airport on September 26, 2017 in New York City. The magazine covers a range of matters together with news, know-how features, product info and interviews with industry specialists. This means people must take away tablets, e-readers and another bigger-format electronics from luggage they plan to carry on to flights and ship them by way of the x-ray machine in their very own bins. As with transformative applied sciences just like the Internet, DARPA is considering a generation forward in order to create new know-how paradigms. The U.K. introduced its personal electronics restrictions for inbound flights on Tuesday, although the restrictions differ from the U.S. order with regard to laptops and tablets.
The strategic importance of electronics was underscored this week when the Trump administration moved to block the acquisition of U.S. chipmaker Lattice Semiconductor by Chinese investors. The four primary parts of electronics are: (1) electrons as carrier vectors, (2) electrical cables and circuits, (three) the generators and (4) transistors. They are all electronics that go on vacation and should now join laptops in the safety checkpoint bins.
Since July, travelers at 10 airports have been removing electronics bigger than cellphones, as a part of the Transportation Security Administration 's security enhancement plan. Most individuals like music and electronics is the key to having fun with it. Hobbyists buy stereo techniques mainly to hearken to music and play around with audio system. Magazines like Hands-On Electronics, Elementary Electronics, and Modern Electronics silently disappeared. Humans found find out how to transform the silica into silicon, and immediately nearly all of our trendy technology relies on this single starting materials.
Garneau stated he will study data that has been offered to him earlier than making a decision about whether Canada might comply with suit with an identical order regarding electronics on flights. For its part, South Korean giant LG Electronics is the newest company that is planning to promote robots to unravel duties at present completed by people.
The University is on the educational and multidisciplinary forefront of the technical and the pure sciences—with new initiatives in quite a few demanding engineering disciplines, including sustainable power expertise and life science. When you can buy it: It's presently obtainable for sale on several consumer electronics and appliances web sites. And no one wished to spend hours and even days or perhaps weeks building a kit once they might run over to the electronics store and buy one to make use of right now.

A couple of weeks ago, we visited the Forest Home Cemetery on Milwaukee's south side. The cemetery is located in the neighborhood called "Lincoln Village" and is a magnificent oasis of quiet and dignity in the middle of a high-energy part of the city. Honestly: even the squirrels on-site were moving with a certain gravitas.
Of course, that made the woman carrying a camera and trying to scale the sides of large grave-markers really stand out.
Awkward moment, when even the squirrels view you with small squirrelly sneers.
Originally, I'd intended to do a piece on all the Beer Barons of Milwaukee who are buried at Forest Home, but the Blatz Family crypt is such an incredible structure that I felt it deserved its own chapter. I'll get to the rest of the crowd–Pabst, Schlitz and Jacob Best– in another post.
I went to the cemetery as a photographer, not as an historian, so if you are anxious for floor plans or an accounting of all those who slumber within the Blatz crypt…can't help you there. I can tell you that this is the final resting place of one Valentin Blatz (1826-1894), Bavarian immigrant and founder of the Blatz Brewery.
My friend, Anne, has a mom who is in her 80's and a lifetime fan of Blatz beer. Anne says that she's pretty sure that her mom's vision of the Gates of Heaven might look a lot like the shot above.
I'll admit it: my English-major self did a few riffs on Shelley's "Ozymandias."
Did I mention the whole beautiful thing? Color, line, angles, textures–as a photographer, it was difficult to move myself past this one monument.
One final detail: the serious chain and lock securing the gate at the entrance to the crypt.

December 6 2015 Energy of the Day
By Gaiablooming, 12/06/2015
Horoscope December 6 2015
Well the interesting astro continues today with 14 degree consciousness invading the planetary energy. The Sun, Mars and Pluto will be interacting today at 14 degrees, stirring the mental energy. You get to decide what consciousness you take action on… fear based or love based. The truth is that you have the choice every day, but this energy will really up today with Mars in Libra Squaring Pluto in Capricorn. Mars represents action and passion and when suppressed or not channeled into the passion, it can take a turn into angry motivation. Pluto is transformation energy and in capricorn is shifting the structure of each of us and the world. I personally think, it would be amazing today if all the light conscious people made a conscious choice through the day to allow love based action to rule their being and done. This requires looking at the other stuff, and noticing when it surfaces. Venus in Scorpio is willing to witness it and love it into transforming into its original light energy. Your ego may have a say in it, but let the love consciousness work the magic! When all else fails… bring in the spirit of I don't know Namaste
take a moment and dedicate it to peace <3

You might recall from Monday about the whole reading app massacre, and how Apple forced Amazon, B&N, Kobo, et al to remove the links to their ebookstores.
One of the stranger parts of this tale was the Nook iPad app. It didn't get updated on Monday; instead it vanished from iTunes. Barnes & Noble told us later that the app would return with an update; it was going to get support for periodicals.
Update: The Nook iPad app is back.
That's great news, but the app is still missing.We're now rapidly approaching the end of business day on Friday and there's no sign of when the app will return.
I've checked with B&N and didn't get a reply. (That's the norm for B&N, actually.) Does anyone know why the app is still missing? I'd love to hear from you.

Full Season Torrent Review
Also read: Action TV show Vikings S05 Torrent, airing in 2017 (November 29), is today's most popular tv show on TorrentHood.
Well reinvigorated the series using a shakeup-slash-overhaul. I am resisting the word"reboot" here, but the show shot us far ahead in time to ensure Morgan, in The Walking Dead, could combine the narrative. Remember also that amuses the Walking Dead's Season 3 finale finished with a massive action conquer and a huge cliffhanger where lots of characters' fates were unknown. It's true that you may consider the press trailers and materials for Season 4 and also place who lived the whale explosion, but it is still a daring move to get a series to jump way beyond the wake of such an occasion. For sure, it is possible that prospective Season 4 episodes will fill us in on what precisely happened after the dam collapse however this premiere episode,"What is Your Story?" Pays no mind in any way.
We certainly needed time away in the Clarks. More importantly, they had to grab around Rick's very"lived in" zombpocalypse entire world. A universe where they do not need to keep discovering things O.G. Walking Dead personalities learned years past.
The fourth season of Fear the Walking Dead, an American horror-drama television series on AMC, premiered on April 15, 2018, and will comprise 16 episodes split into two eight-episode parts. The second half of the season premiered on August 12, 2018. It is a companion series to The Walking Dead, and the season premiere contained the first crossover between the two series.
Fundamentally, we had Madison and her brood to"view some shit" and from the looks of items in the conclusion - guy, they've observed some shit. First Panic showrunner Dave Erickson, toward the conclusion of the tenure on the series, talked about how Madison could easily become a villain in this world. Given the way she came to it as somebody prepared and willing to make radical decisions, without a lot of inner-argument, to protect those she loved, Erickson watched her as somebody who would, say, become a Governor-type down the street.
Additional cool. Are the Clarks currently desperate Highwaymen? In recent years since the Mexican dam episode, have they turned? Honestly, besides Alicia, I will see that this clan turning sour. This was a very amazing ending. And how Morgan was introduced to the series was quite cleverly done. Not only did the series start off like it had been an incident of The Walking Dead but Morgan matched up with two brand new individuals first. Two new characters into the series. It was not only Morgan stumbling across Madison along with her children, it was that completely new clique of crusaders bonding, traveling, and fending off bad men before finally falling to a Clark snare right at the conclusion.
Single thing I will miss about Stress is your very distinct picture. Morgan might have traveled more than a million miles to Texas, but it never felt as though he entered another realm. Was Morgan the perfect method to bridge both of these Dead universes? I can not say for certain, but what is clear is that Morgan is such a damaged personality he readily brings out the chatterbox others. It is a neat trick really. We follow somebody who does not have any intention of earning friends or sticking around anyone he meets is subsequently virtually, by default, a strong and intriguing character. Ironically, Maggie Grace's Althea seems just a tiny overly pre-designed to kickstart Morgan the wrong manner, as a former journalist dedicated to shooting people's stories on camera. She is essentially the previous man Morgan, as shut off and shut as he is, wants to socialize with.
John got to start this event, and this year, and also the second Dillanhunt spoke no longer than three lines, which had been him talking out to the shadow and according to how he had not used his voice in a calendar year, I thought "That is already a much better show". Just because he had been on it. He's in a position to catch your attention and force you to care of him within minutes. Besides the end, Dillahunt's personality was the funniest part of the year premiere.
Sure, John's a bit anachronistic, as a friendly moseying cowboy, sharpshooting villains having a classic pistol, but when we could put up with all the garbage people in the Heap for a couple of decades, certainly we could observe Roy Rogers mow down swaths of zombies. I mean, we are still searching for Stress for another series, right? It is difficult to feel as though it's right now since Rick and Carol have been in the opening moments, attempting to convince Morgan to remain, so all off-kilter components are welcome.
You will find questions, most certainly, right from the gate, but not an overwhelming quantity. "How can the Clarks become rabid creatures?" For you personally. Afterward, an extension of this,"What occurred in the dam years ago?" Then there is the question of this"Numbered Markers" which Althea mentioned. Morgan and his new"friends" made it beyond a group of catchy clients this week, but what is the total villain scenario like? Additionally, are there some camps available everywhere? Althea and John appeared intrigued by Morgan's lifetime back in the Hilltop and the Kingdom - sufficient so you wonder whether they had ever seen a place . Stress the Walking Dead was smart to have Morgan join with a couple new characters until he battled with Madison's team. It enabled us to meet some new faces and get to understand them inside the context of Morgan's terse moodiness prior to the hammer dropped in the end and also the greatest link to the prior cast, and narrative, was disclosed.

Accommodations in NerjaNerja is a small, tranquil coastal town belonging to la Costa del Sol in Málaga.
Its very corners are famous thanks to a television series from the 80s called Verano Azul, which displayed the towns features thoroughly and realistically. In fact, many of the tourist routes that the town offers allude to this series, and organized tours show the places of the filming.
The best known location is the Balcon de Europa, with its añones from which one can contemplate the well known beach of Calahonda practically a cove, it is accessed through an opening at the end of Puerta del Mar street. To the other side of the Balcon de Europa is the beach of the Caletilla.
Also highly regarded is Burriana beach, which, surrounded as it is by comforts and urbanizations, is a concentration of affluent tourism.
There are a few rustic beaches like Chicho, Palyazo, and Cañuelo: more isolated, they are only moderately frequented in summer.
Another site to enjoy is Cala del Pino, where large rocks separate a sandy cove into two different beach sections, situated next to a beautiful pine grove.
Although the town seems small, there are many fascinating sites to visit in Nejra: the famous caves (with some of the largest formations of stalagmites and stalactites yet found), the Museum of Fleas, the paths where donkeys pull buggies, and the cliffs of Maro.
The main road centers on the Plaza TutiFruti, where the best offerings for nocturnal leisure are found, while on the beach of Torrecilla is a multitude of chiringuitos open until daybreak.

Subscribe To Why Haley Reinhart Should Win American Idol Updates
I've already subscribed
If there's one thing I love to see from an Idol contestant, it's steady performance growth over the course of the season. While some contestants peak too soon, others start out in the shadows and slowly emerge as the contestant to watch. For Season 10, that contestant is Haley Reinhart. With her raspy, growly voice and excellent stage presence, she's not just a good singer, she's a great performer and a true musician.
Haley's first performance tonight is a prime example of why she deserves to win. She took on Led Zeppelin's "What Is and What Should Never Be," which was vocally challenging and also a risky choice as it's far from the mainstream pop song or country hit that many might prefer to see covered on the Idol stage. She rocked the song from beginning to end and, even when she stumbled getting back up onto the main stage, she continued on without letting it throw her off.
I don't think the judges have done well to offer the contestants much in the way of constructive criticism or advice on how to improve this season. Without a "Simon" to tell it like it is, the contestants have been left to figure out what they need to do to win over the voters and in that respect, Haley has shined. Both Lauren and Scotty are talented and likely to go on to do great things musically but this is a competition and as I see it, growth counts as much as voice and stage presence do. Haley's demonstrated all three, giving us more than a glimpse of who she is as an artist.
I'm not going to lie and say that I've been a Haley supporter from the beginning. In fact, she was barely on my radar until the contestants made it to the Top 9 or so. Some contestants come into the competition with an amazing story or one great performance that allows them to coast through the earlier weeks of the competition. Haley had neither. She worked for it every week. She endured standing in the Bottom 3 numerous times and put up with the sometimes-unwarranted criticism from the judges, which the other contestants were spared regardless of how well or weakly they performed, and she got herself to the Top 3. Not only do I think she deserves to win, but I believe that of the three remaining contestants, Haley is the one most ready to grab her career by the horns and take off with it.

Will a Torn Rotator Cuff Heal Without Surgery?
A torn rotator cuff can be caused by a sudden trauma to the shoulder during a sports activity or simply by repetitive movement and overuse of the joint. Small tears can develop and can be painful, limiting your daily activities. If the tears are not severe and with your dedication to a therapy program, a torn rotator cuff injury can heal without surgery.
If you are experiencing serious medical symptoms, seek emergency treatment immediately.
Initial Treatment
To avoid surgery for a torn rotator cuff, the sooner you take action, the better your chance for recovery. Activities that are causing pain, such as reaching overhead, heavy lifting or job-related activities that may aggravate the shoulder, will need to stop. It will be important to immobilize the shoulder with a sling, ice the shoulder two to three times each day and take anti-inflammatory medication for the pain and swelling. Icing should be done for 15 to 20 minutes each session. After two days, start alternating the icing sessions with heat. This will draw blood to the injured area and promote healing.
Physical Therapy
Most minor rotator cuff tears can heal without surgery with a good stretching and exercise program. Once the pain has eased, it will be necessary to begin a stretching routine to keep the shoulder flexible and promote healing. A physical therapist can suggest a strengthening exercise routine that should be followed daily. Icing should always be performed after exercising to ease any pain or swelling. Success in healing a rotator cuff tear without surgery will be dependent upon how well you adhere to the rehabilitation routine.
If it is too painful to do stretching or strengthening exercises, consider having a cortisone injection. This will have to be prescribed and administered by a doctor. It will ease the pain long enough to allow you to continue exercising to promote healing and strengthening. A full recovery from a torn rotator cuff without surgery will require patience, commitment and self-discipline and can take weeks and months of physical therapy.

Using a Trolley Car as a Moving Van
The Conestoga Traction Company, of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, made the not-so-obvious leap of faith that a trolley car could be put into service hauling furniture etc. for people moving house. It helps if your trackage covers the locality pretty densely; otherwise, you'll spend all your time loading and offloading to horse-drawn wagons. The comment about the market for this common carrier being "from some point in the city to the country or vice versa" seems to me to imply a fatally limited for an already questionable project.

Electric Locomotive from 1888
Another piece from POPULAR ELECTRICITY, this early design was built in Wisconsin and put into operation between Ansonia and Derby, Connecticut. Read the text; it's quite interesting (you can click the image to make it larger).
Original magazine publication: May, 1909. I think it's remarkable that as early as 1909, there were exhibitions showing early equipment; that's over a hundred years ago.

Bridgton and Harrison Railroad Timetable, 1940
From far-off Maine comes this 1940 turntable covering the sixteen miles of two-foot gauge track, said here to be the last of its kind. I don't know where I got these, but it was probably from some fine eBay seller's listing, back in 2002. As always, click for better viewing.

Edison's Electric Locomotive: 1880
I was unaware that Thomas Edison had built an electric railroad at his Menlo Park, NJ, research lab in 1880. Growing out of his work on electric motors, it ran for 90 rods and presumably contributed to the developments which would make electric traction a competitive technology. This short 1909 article from POPULAR ELECTRICITY, though aimed at children, provides the basic information. I've enlarged the picture of the locomotive itself, so that you can better see its odd configuration. It's interesting to consider that in 1909, the subject of the article was not even thirty years in the past; it's as if we were considering a technology from 1984 as ancient history.

When I was growing up, I loved roller coasters. They were my favorite part of amusement parks and if it was possible, I would ride them non-stop from sunup to sundown. At the time, there was nothing in the world that could compare to the feeling of getting in line to ride one. It was a special mixture of joy, anticipation, nervousness, and outright fear. I'm not sure if the feeling even has a name, but I always equate it with good times and happy thoughts.
This feeling has returned to me as I've started preparing for the C&O Canal 100. I haven't gotten a full dose of the feeling yet like I used to as I was getting strapped in to the coaster. Merely little tastes of it here and there similar to what I would get as we drove to the amusement park. I know from prior races that the feeling will continue to build in duration and intensity right up until I start on Saturday.
The feeling now comes as I begin final preparations for the race. As you can imagine, the longer the race the more preparations are needed as there are a much wider variety of potential issues that I need to plan for. Since I'm more of a Type A personality than not, this means lists, lists, and more lists. Frankly, I feel a little bit like Santa in that I'm checking and rechecking my lists several times a day. The only difference is that Santa has only 2 lists and I have what feels like a hundred lists as I get everything ready for my race. Here is the current status of my lists. I'm sure they'll grow a bit over the next several days as I remember what I've forgotten, but these should be close to what I'll need:
Master List
|charge both watches
|clear memory on both watches
|change battery in HRM
|charge MP3 player
|update MP3 with new playlist
|charge portable charger
|pack camping gear – tent, air mattresses, sleeping bags, blankets, pillows, chair
|pack clothes (see list below)
|Pack Race Gear (see separate list below)
|get directions to Manidokan
|get directions from Manidokan to Brunswick
|get directions home
|Sat breakfast – TastyKlair, Gatorade (2)
|book for car ride
|Prepare drop bags with name, aid station, bib #123
|HR goop
|Pace list for Kate
Race Gear
|compression shorts
|Patagonia shoes
|hydration belt
|2 20oz bottles – filled with water
|MP3 player
|HR Monitor
Clothes for before/after
|sweat pants
|toiletry bag
Drop Bag Lists
|Nolan's Ferry
|long sleeve T-shirt
|long sleeve T-shirt
|long sleeve T-shirt
|Ensure Plus (2)
|sweat shirt
|sweat shirt
|Rain coat – backup
|Rain coat – good
|Headlamp – primary
|Headlamp – backup
|batteries for primary
|batteries for backup
|hand warmers
|hand warmers
|winter hat
|winter hat
|Ensure Plus (1)
|Ensure Plus (4)
|portable charger
|backup watch
|body glide
|body glide
|knee brace
|Ace bandage
I may end up eliminating the Nolan's Ferry drop bag. It's only 10 miles from Brunswick and I'm thinking I can do the 20 miles round trip without needing an extra bag. I'll just need to take an extra minute at Brunswick each time to make sure I'll be good for the next 4-6 hours.
Additional Items
The one additional prep item I had this time was to test out a way to charge my Garmin as I run. I chose the watch because it has the longest battery life of GPS watches, however it still "only" lasts about 15 hours. I'll never run a 100 mile race that fast so my watch will never last the whole way on 1 charge. I used 2 different watches for Oil Creek, which worked OK but results in the data for the run being split into 2 separate files. I'm sure there's a way to combine the runs, however I haven't figured it out yet. The other way would be to charge my watch as I run. I have a portable USB charger and so took this on my last long run to see if it would work for me. I was able to charge my watch from about 25% to 90%+ over the 2 hour run. The only downside is that I don't have access to any information besides the time of day and % charged while it's charging. So I can't use any alarms and won't notice the mile splits. Neither of these are big issues. I only need the heart rate alarm when I start out and by the time I hit 13-14 hours, I probably couldn't get my HR up to 155 if I tried. And while it's nice to see how my pace is progressing, I don't really need to know the mile splits as I'm not racing the clock. If I lose a couple of 5-10 minutes while my watch charges, then I'm sure it's for the best anyway.
As you can see from the above, there's a lot of thought that goes into just preparing to run 100 miles even excluding the training aspect. Sure there are some people that can roll out of bed and run one with the clothes on their back. At some point, that may even be me. But you never know what might happen between miles 1 and 99 and the more stuff you have available, the more likely you are to finish.
What do you call that getting-on-a-roller-coaster feeling?

In the Concerto for Orchestra, Wit surpasses his earlier recording in both precision and energy, with the opening packing a real punch. The filigree murmurings of the second movement are delivered with tight control of rhythm and phrasing, and the long finale is perfectly paced to an inevitable climax. The recording [...] has good depth and separation. It's certainly up there with Barenboim's or Tortelier's versions and ahead of Lutoslawski's own [...]. This showpiece needs real virtuosity, and gets it.Martin Cotton, BBC Music Magazine, 10/1/2005
Both works here enjoy fine, committed playing from the orchestra. The Warsaw Philharmonic has a distinguished history with the Concerto for Orchestra, and its performance here lacks neither precision nor passion. The chatterings which open the Capriccio notturno are very well done indeed ... an excellent and eminently recommendable rendition of what is still hardly an over-exposed work.Carl Rosman, International Record Review, 12/1/2005
The Concerto for Orchestra is the more conservative of the two in style but it remains a fine achievement, in no way put in the shade by the greater radicalism of the Cello Concerto written 20 years later.
The disc is very well recorded and worth investigating.Arnold Whittall, The Gramophone, 6/1/2006

About the Designer
We build the clearest sunglasses on the planet for those who live to be on the water. Born on the water and we're still inspired by it. We want to be on it, we want to protect it, and we want to inspire others to do the same. In 1983, a group of hardcore fishermen who spent their days exploring the globe and battling extreme elements came to realize that the sunglasses they were relying on weren't as hardcore as their adventures. Seeing the world in absolute clarity and protecting their eyes was a must. So when they couldn't find worthy sunglasses, they decide to build their own. And Costa was born. After all these years and all these adventures, our mission has never wavered: to create the clearest sunglasses on the planet for life's great adventures. And the patented technology like those found only in Costa lenses and frames are proof that we're succeeding.

By Tom Deignan
This year, we celebrate the 25th anniversary of "The Simpsons," the lovable yellow family from Springfield led by that pudgy patriarch, Homer Simpson. Homer, of course, is famously quite stupid.
"Operator," he once yelled into the telephone. "Give me the number for 911."
Homer's stupidity is sublime, absurd and hilarious thanks to the dozens of brilliant writers who've toiled for "The Simpsons" over 2½ decades.
The same, unfortunately, cannot be said about the latest crop of fictional dads that sitcom writers have (ahem) labored to create. Now that the networks have unveiled their offerings for the 2013 TV season, you might be tempted to say that — imitation being the sincerest form of flattery — Homer Simpson has clearly influenced an entire generation of sitcom writers.
But while it's true that shows like "Dads" (Fox), "The Goldbergs" (ABC) and "We Are Men" (CBS) offer fathers who are generally as crass and clueless as Homer, there is none of the redeeming lovability or knowing irony that marks every "Simpsons" gag.
Instead, we are left with fathers who are detached, disinterested and generally deplorable.
"Dads," for example, depicts an older generation of cringe-inducing fathers (Peter Riegert and Martin Mull) who gleefully interrupt their sons while they're getting busy with the ladies and designate certain bathrooms "liquids only."
"We Are Men" also features fathers of different ages, though with roughly the same (low) IQ scores. The show takes the premise from one brilliant "Simpsons" episode (Milhouse's divorced dad starting anew at a sleazy singles rental complex) and stretches it into an entire series, featuring older dads poisoning the mind of a youngster contemplating marriage.
Defending his bitter new pals, the youngster declares: "These idiots get me more than you do."
Well said. Because that's all these dudes really are — idiots.
"The Goldbergs," meanwhile, offers a popular variation on the dumb dad — the one who believes his parenting duties pretty much ended nine months before the child's birth.
"I agree with whatever nonsense your mother just said," Dad Goldberg declares in one episode. In another, after a driving lesson with his son, Dad exits the vehicle howling: "He's a moron, he's a moron!"
It's important to note that today's idiot dads have their roots in the equally insufferable fathers of TV's past. For too long on television, father really did know best. Audiences eventually got sick of these unrealistic super-dads.
Today's clueless dads are (theoretically) an attempt to reflect a more complicated and messy world, where, in the wake of feminism, old models of masculinity no longer work.
But the pendulum has swung too far in the other direction. (It also doesn't help that these shows are painfully unfunny.)
It is true that several new sitcoms such as "The Michael J. Fox Show" and "Welcome to the Family" avoid some of the more lame "dumb dad" clichés.
Nevertheless, it is revealing that the most interesting portrait of fatherhood on TV in recent years has probably been Walter White from "Breaking Bad." Forget, for a moment, that Walter was a killer and drug kingpin. When home with his family, Walt is a flawed but caring father, unafraid to show genuine emotions with his older son, and capable of changing a baby's diaper without resorting to infantile hysterics of his own.
Perhaps the most frustrating thing about the dumb-dad phenomenon is that it comes at a time when dads have no choice but to be deeply engaged in every aspect of their family's life.
As Stephen Marche recently put it in a much-discussed Atlantic Monthly article headlined "The Masculine Mystique": "American fatherhood has evolved almost beyond recognition in recent decades."
Just don't expect to see this reflected in a sitcom not named "The Simpsons" anytime soon.

To Die For by Linda Howard
Series: Blair Mallory #1
Also in this series: Drop Dead Gorgeous
Publication Date: December 28th 2004
Pages: 384

Amazon | Barnes & Noble | The Ripped Bodice | Google Play Books
Series Rating:
Blair Mallory lives the good life. She's pretty, confident, and the owner of a thriving up-scale fitness center. But in the shadow of success, a troubled member of the club develops a strange fixation on Blair, imitating her style and dress. Matters take a darker turn when the look-alike is shot dead–and Blair witnesses the horror.
As the media speculates on the tawdry details of the homicide and pushes Blair into the harsh spotlight, she locks horns with police lieutenant Wyatt Bloodsworth. He wants to lead an investigation without interference, while Blair is determined to probe the dead woman's life on her own. But when someone begins to menace Blair with mounting threats, Wyatt takes notice: Was this murder indeed a lethal case of mistaken identity–and was Blair the intended victim?
From the Paperback edition.
Okay, this book seriously rocked out IMO.
Blair cracked me the hell up with her snooty attitude, her inability to say NO to Wyatt and even her karate chop cartwheel at the end of the book was pretty tight (totally unbelievable, but tight nonetheless). She was a funny, sarcastic and just all around normal person. She was far from perfect and I think that's why I loved her character so much, because I could see her as one of my friends.
So the thing with Blair is, she got married young, married a guy who cheated on her with…HER SISTER! And she divorces his ass, she makes out like a bandit in the settlement and with the money she got from her lying, rat bastard ex husband, she opens up a 24 Hour Fitness type gym in her town. Things are looking up for her, when she gets this really annoying customer that everyone absolutely loathes.
The day she kicks her out of the gym is the day that she's murdered in the parking lot, with Blair as a witness, she didn't see who shot poor Nicole, but she was the one that called 911 and all that junk. The cops come over and things start to heat up.
Enter the hot and hunky Detective Hero, J.W. Bloodsworth.
Blair can't stand his ass because she dated him and he never called her back, just up and disappeared with not a word or anything, any girl would be annoyed with someone who didn't give you a reason they stopped seeing you.
It's a freaking riot to see these two bump heads throughout the book, Wyatt trying to keep Blair safe from the killer and from his lascivious attentions and Blair and her annoying lists she makes up for Wyatt's boss, the lists that are never completed and never turned over.
The chemistry between Blair and Wyatt is unmistakable and was enough to have me up until all hours of the night last night, rereading. It really is a great treat for all of us, ya'll should definitely check it out!

I finished this corset a couple of weeks ago just before I went on holiday but ran out of time to blog about it. I am extremely happy with how it turned out. Here's the reminder: Floral printed cotton, £2 from the remnants bin at Fabrics Galore. Lining is a silk/cotton blend. Both layers are interfacing with slightly different weights of fusible interfacing. Boning is rigilene sew-in boning and finished off with turquoise satin bias binding. The pattern is Simplicity 5006.
The back of the corset features hook and eye tape.
This is the only shot of me wearing the corset and the bias binding was still unfinished at this point. I've not had a chance to wear and photograph it properly as when I finished it, I immediately lent it out to Morley college for a student exhibition they have going on at the moment. As I've been on holiday I haven't had a chance to see if it has been exhibited, so fingers crossed!

Cross the Oresund Bridge
Due to its location, it is very easy to reach Malmö when coming from Copenhagen Oresund Bridge which connects Denmark and Sweden ( Have you seen the "The Bridge"?). We rented a car in Copenhagen, paid the fee and after 15 minutes we were already is Sweden.
Green city
Malmö has no shortage of greenery. Visitors will enjoy the relaxing and comforting atmosphere that the city brings. Walking through the town you'll notice plenty of green space and make sure to take full advantage of the outdoor experiences available throughout the city.
Malmö actually is the third biggest city of Sweden. Located in the South of the country, Malmö definitely is worth a visit. Malmö is a great alternative to Copenhagen. Shopping and dining can be cheaper here than in the Danish city across the water.
Drink a coffee and enjoy pastries
Sweden is one of the largest consumers of coffee in the world and they definitely know how to brew the perfect cup of coffee and bake tasty sweets by combining modern flavours with classic Swedish treats such as cinnamon buns, almond cakes or 'semlor' Lenten buns.
Malmö is a great escape to a cultural centre with many different cultures blending with typical Swedish culture. Travellers will love the crisp air in this Swedish city and will find a treasured town that blends new and old perfectly to create a unique experience.
Look around and discover mix of architecture
The best way is walk around and not always to follow the touristic routes. The tall, white building is a symbol of the city and easy point to orientate.
Visit Lilla Torg
Lilla Torg is one of the busiest corners of Malmö. As being a historical market square, locals and tourists alike can buy local specialties.

Unbelievable! Their values were exposed. One issued an apology, but I have I've lost some respect for him. The temporary took over from the eternal on the priority list for these guys. The rush out of the gate to begin the baseball season betrayed their hearts. We know the story: Mets second baseman Daniel Murphy missed the first two games to be with his wife for the birth of their first child.
So the value is money not relationship. If you have money it gives you permission to rearrange your values, to rethink your commitments and to miss the things that happen only once.
Absurd! Money can't buy memories.
Boomer Esiason's suggestion that a c-section should have been scheduled demonstrates a complete lack of understanding about the right values, the best priorities, the total commitment of marriage. When you say "I do" you are saying "I no longer belong to myself - I belong to another."
(On listening to to Esiason's "speech" a second time, the thing that caught my attention was his comment about getting back to work because "you can send your kid to any college of your choice." Stunning! All about money. Messed up values.)
(On listening to to Esiason's "speech" a second time, the thing that caught my attention was his comment about getting back to work because "you can send your kid to any college of your choice." Stunning! All about money. Messed up values.)
We are a sports obsessed culture. I'm a part of it. I enjoy watching sports and playing sports. I spend a lot of time around a pool deck officiating at swim meets. I was a collegiate athlete so I know what it takes to perform at that level. My son is a college athlete. All three of my kids played sports through high school. It can suck you in unless you build some inner braces by having something eternal to be your measure.
The hero is not the one who hits the most home runs. Rather he's the one builds a home for life, for whom the marriage vows are not multiple choice. Money isn't the answer. Some of the most miserable people I know are also the wealthiest.
Baseball will end. Athletic prowess will wain. It's the nature of being human. All the trophies, headlines, awards and records won't make up for the life-long love of another.
As Muriel McQuilkin's alzheimer's progressed, her husband, Robertson, President of Columbia Bible College (now Columbia International University) in South Carolina, resigned to care for her full-time. For 25 years he loved her in the midst of this horrible disease, the vast majority during which she no longer recognized him or reciprocated his love. In an interview back in 2004 he said:
"Since I've tried to bring my choices under the authority of Scripture, I didn't have struggles about what to do. As I told the students when I resigned from school, this was one of the easiest decisions I ever made." (Christianity Today, February 2004, p. 64)
We all need something to help us straighten out our values. Money won't do it because it comes and goes. Relationships won't do it because people will disappoint us, bodies and minds will break down. We can't decide what to do based on what someone else does, or is no longer able to do. Anything that is temporary can't be the measurement by which we determine our actions.
I'm a Cincinnati Reds fan and I'll cheer for them no matter who they're playing, but when we're playing the Mets and Daniel Murphy comes to the plate, I may temporarily switch my loyalties and let out a little cheer.
Thanks Daniel for not caring about what others think. Thanks for making your wife and family your priority. You are richer than any multi-millionaire ballplayer or broadcaster. When careers are over and voices have been silenced, you will have what no amount of money or fame can buy - the love of a woman and memories that will carry you through the most difficult of days.
