So I mentioned I would try doing a sketch a day. And in technicality I have done many sketches for this week however I have had no time to scan them in and show them off. Lots of unexpected stuff has gone on this past week so I haven't had the time to devote here. But here are some of the sketches i did:
I did some sketches focusing on sharks because for those who don't know last week on Discovery Channel it was SHARK WEEK! I love shark week. I find the animal so fascinating. Actually a lot of family members/friends get irritated when I watch it since I live in Miami and of course we have a lot of ocean so some ask me if I don't get freaked out watching those shows but actually its because of the knowledge that I'm more assured knowing that they are not the "man-eating villains" some people portray them to be.
I did this sketch in a smaller sketchbook I had. i occasionally do this when I don't know what to draw I just start drawing shapes and create a creature more than welcome to give it a creative name.
I have then been working as well on learning to draw a more realistic human face from imagination. So I found this cool website known as Pencil Kings. It looks real good and that's what's up with these sketches. I was learning how to draw the eye as well as the proportions of the face:
Then these are the last two drawings I did. I like both of them. I don't know who the girl was supposed to be she just happened and the frog is my favorite cuz he's just so darn CUTE!
I'm hoping to start the a bit modified version of the 30 day drawing challenge just to get more of the creative juices flowing as this next week rolls around. Hopefully not much unexpected happens as the previous week.

KAB Contest winners visit the United States
July 23, 2015
Written by: Angela Wiseman
In May 2014, 28 employees at Koike Aronson Brazil started taking English courses. The program included level 1 and level 2 courses and concluded this past June.
Koike Aronson management proposed an idea for a contest. The employees who received the highest grades in these two courses, which were then submitted by the university professor, would receive a trip to the United States. The trip would include a week in Arcade visiting Koike Aronson and seeing local attractions.
Carlos Eduardo, an Engineering Manager, received a 100% in the courses, and he has decided to continue his studies. He did have a head-start on the other employees, however, because he started teaching himself. Plant Manager Luiz Carlos was next with the highest grades. Both gentlemen visited Koike Aronson last July too. It was decided then to choose the next two high-achievers who had not yet visited.
The winners of the contest were Angelica Saurin, a Customer Service Representative who earned a 99%, and Vinicius Brochieri, a Production Control Planner who also earned a 99%.
They had a full week of activities, including an on-site customer service training, website development, purchasing methods, manufacturing planning, and a SAP Production planning module. The activities after hours included hiking and dinner at the Glen Iris Inn at Letchworth State Park. They took a trip to Darien Lake theme park in which they enjoyed exciting roller coaster rides and a thrilling Bungee jump. They had a relaxing night at Buffalo Canalside with a carriage ride, remote control sailboats, and dinner on the waterfront. Their visit would not be complete without a trip to Niagara Falls and a ride on the Maid of the Mist. They had dinner and went bowling afterward. They returned to Buffalo to experience the night life of dancing at the Sky Room until 3am, and took a trip to the mall for some shopping. Their last comment was that they want to stay in America!
Our winners left, accompanied by Tauana Pavanelli, a Procurement Manager, this past Sunday. We hope our visitors enjoyed their week here, and we congratulate them on a job well done with their English courses.

Wheat-free * Dairy-free * Gluten-free * Vegetarian * Vegan * Parve * Paleo *
I'm serving soup as my first course for Thanksgiving. I didn't want to make butternut squash soup like everybody else serves (not to mention that I already have two recipes for butternut squash soup on this blog: Anti Inflammatory Soup and plain old Butternut Squash Soup) so I decided to use more of my CSA apples and make a slightly curried apple soup. I made the soup and although it tasted really good, there was only one problem. The soup only made 6 cups and that's a little too little for my 8 or maybe even 10 guests. I looked around and saw I had some leftover cooked butternut squash from the other night. I diced it and added it to the soup. Now I have 8 cups and it looks nice having little floating pieces of squash. Of course I can never leave well enough alone so I decided to see what it would taste like if I just pureed it…FABULOUS! So I guess I'm serving Butternut Squash Soup this year – like everyone else.
On the off chance that you are having less than 8 guests, the original apple soup is a really unusual and delicious choice.

Like a caged animal
Mommy and Daddy broke down and got me a cage. Mommy explained to me that it was important because it was going to keep me safe. If Mommy were to put me in the cage all day long that would be one story, but she likes to use it when she's making food, going potty, or putting laundry away. She feels she's entitled to lock me up for these reasons because she loves me. I'm not going to lie to you people... I kind of like the cage. :)
I feel better knowing that I can now watch "Jon and Kate plus 8" while eating my pink plastic bowl... and be safe from electrical outlets ALL AT THE SAME TIME PEOPLE!
Plus... I think it goes well with my outfit.

Pulling up
Time to lower the crib kids! Look what Mommy found the other day when I woke up from my nap:
I've since learned to pull up to my feet. Mommy and Daddy have yet to capture that bad boy on film.
I also enjoy pretending I'm a monster. My monster voice has gotten many a laugh. However, when Mommy pulls out the camera... I IMMEDIATELY switch back to my little sweet baby voice. They will never capture it... NEVER!

4 years
Happy Anniversary to my mommy and my daddy! Daddy asked me today if I got him a gift, but I first of all... can't go shopping by myself, second... have no idea what an anniversary is, and third... aren't THEY supposed to give ME all the gifts? Seriously people!
(Rachel here... Bryan I love you so very much. Can you believe it?! We've been together for 7 years, married for 4, and now have a gorgeous baby. I'm so blessed to have you in my life. I know I can be a handful... trust me I know... but I'm all yours! Lots of kisses!!!!)

Daddy is such a number nerd (at least that's what Mommy says). He likes to collect all of the receipts, put them in date order, catalog their information on his nerdy little excel file, and then save them... for months... years even... ahhhh the life of an accountant. :) But I digress... so Daddy left his precious little receipts in his hat on the floor, and I found them. He had them in some CRAZY order, so I decided to help him out. :)This one goes before this one... I'll put this one next... I could be here ALL day!

There is cable car elevator in Dubuque, IA that Mommy and Daddy have been on many times. We thought this would be the perfect time to take me. I got to sit on Daddy's lap. I was extremely intrigued and wasn't quite sure what was going on. Here are a few more pictures from our Iowa adventures. Sadly we didn't take too many... I guess we were just super busy with other things. :)

If you build it...
Mommy, Daddy, Uncle Aaron, and I just got back from a sweet little visit in Iowa. I was able to visit with my great gparents and my great aunt Kerry. We had a hoot! There was lots of pizza to be had and adventures to lead. Our first day there we ventured off to the set for the movie "The Field of Dreams". Now for those of you that don't know, Mommy was born about 30 minutes from Dyersville in Iowa, so she's been to the set about 545803458034 times. When Daddy came along, he felt he needed to visit it EACH AND EVERY time we were in Iowa. Mommy thinks this is ridiculous but goes along with it anyway. :) While Daddy and Aaron played around, I got a couple of pictures taken.

Father's Day
Mommy came back from Ocean City on Father's Day. I was so excited because that meant it was time to give Daddy all of the great gifts I had been working on.
...put the new crayons in my mouth. They were tastey!We wanted to start a little tradition for Daddy. Every year for Father's Day, we're going to make a print of my little feet to show how much I've grown every year. Mommy and I went shopping and picked up a blank pre-stretched piece of canvas and Mommy went to town. Eventually, she said, I'll be able to paint the whole thing myself, but she was nice enough to help me out this year. Of course she started with HOKIE colors to make an orange and maroon heart for me. She gladly handed it over to me and let me go at it.
I love you very much Daddy. You're the best!

8 months old
Rachel here. Okay so I know she's practically 8 1/2 months now, but we've been UBER busy. There was Florida, and then I went to Ocean City for a girls' weekend, the very next day we traveled to Iowa to visit some of my family... like I said... UBER busy. We're back now though and ready to catch up on life.
Reesie is also COMPLETELY mobile. She's crawling around like a superhero and sitting up on her own from her tummy. (I'll post a video when I get a good one.) It's crazy to see how much she's learning to do everyday!

Mommy and Daddy took me to the zoo! When Mommy was a teacher, her 3rd graders' big field trip of the year was to the North Carolina Zoo. Her friend Amy is still a teacher and was kind enough to invite us to go with them. It was very nice for Mommy to just get to sit back and relax with me and Daddy and not have to worry about all those other children... something she thanks Daddy for just about every day. :) These are a few of my favorite pictures from the day.
OH YEAH... I forgot... there were some animals there too!

Fountains and Baskets
Daddy's training ended around lunchtime Thursday, so we were off once again. I have a tendency to turn into a pumpkin around 7ish, so we stopped our voyage home in Charleston, SC. We woke up early Friday morning and meandered around the town. Mommy fell in love. It was beautiful there... fountains, flowers, and mansions everywhere.Mommy made Daddy take his shoes off and take me into one of the fountains. I'm sure he has some foot eating disease now, but we got a cutie picture. :)Mommy will probably have that exact same foot eating disease herself, so all is well with the world again.
We made sure to go to the city market. Charleston's city market is known for their hand woven baskets. Mommy would have had to sell her kidney for one of those baskets, so she settled for a small wreath and two koozies... orange and maroon of course. :) We were definitely running low on funds, so the rest of the early afternoon was dedicated to taking pictures of the city and we were back in the mountains of Virginia just in time... I was bordering that whole pumpkin time. :)

The Ritz
Yes you read correctly... The Ritz. I mentioned before that we were in Orlando because Daddy was there for business. We realize that we are VERY lucky to be able to go to these with Daddy because it allows us to go on some otherwise unaffordable vacations. Mommy loves going to these with Daddy because she gets to bathe in all of the benefits. One such benefit... staying at the Ritz Carlton. :)
I had another first here at the Ritz. My first big girl bath!!! Look how little I look in the GIANT tub!!! Mommy had to laugh.

Dolphins, Whales, and Beer... OH MY!!
It must be Sea World!!! The second day we were in Orlando was dedicated to Sea World. When Mommy told Daddy this was an Anheiser Busch park... his face lit up like a Christmas tree. :) We began our adventure visiting some dolphins.

I've been tagged!
I've been tagged by Mere at "Life is Short of Sweet for Certain" to do my first meme! How exciting! The Rules: Write a blog entry with 10 weird, random, facts, habits or goals about yourself. However, I don't have 4 other people who even have a blog. :) So I will TAG... Allison from "Just Jack Spillman", Sarah from "The Traveling Duo", and Misty from "Our Life" and whoever wants to reply can. :)
Andddddddd.... GO!
1. I love to pop pimples. I don't know why. They could be my own, they could be Bryan's... I don't discriminate. For some odd reason I get some satisfaction out of doing it... sick I know.
2. I have an obsessive personality. I get it from my mother. When something... a habit/hobby/something tangible catches my eye, I must have it. I must have it everyday and lots of it. For a while it was books, then it was fabric, pint glasses, mugs... strange. Poor Bryan just goes along with it knowing that in a few short months I'll be on to something else, and we'll be having a yard sale to get rid of the crap I just collected. By the way... yard sale in July. :)
3. John and Kate Plus 8 is the one show I can't live without. At first I thought it was just a cute show, but now I find myself taking notes. I think I like her because sadly I see a lot of myself in her. I like to sit on my butt occasionally. I like to boss others around often. I like to "hit" my husband when I feel he deserves it. Those are all awful comparisons, but sadly true.
4. I let everything annoy me. A big one is people who drive wreckless (which in my eyes can simply mean not putting on your turn signal before you decide to cut in front of me... it doesn't matter how far from my car you actually are) offend me and make me want to pull my hair out. I usually scream that I have a baby in the car... which is not the best way to react I know... because afterall I do have a baby in the car. :)
5. I LOVE to put ketchup on EVERYTHING. Especially macaroni cheese and scrambled eggs. I'm not as bad as my brother, who really does put ketchup on EVERYTHING, but it is my favorite condiment.
6. Clowns TERRIFY me. When I was younger... like 4th grade... there was a pick up truck at my bus stop with a clown in the bed. It could have been fake, but we all swore it was real... and it moved. Then I saw the movie "IT" and wanted to die.
7. I know all of the words to the movie "Clueless".
8. In high school my girlfriends and I used to steal art supplies from Ms. Frost, our art teacher. One of our favorite items to steal... paint brushes. We would then use the paint brushes to high light our hair. There were 5 of us, and we all had blonde hair. We would go to the Wal-mart and buy ONE box of extra blonde hair dye and split it between us.
9. I can tie a cherry stem with my tongue.
10. I've been to the "Field of Dreams" more times than I dare to count.

Magic Kingdom
We're in Orlando! Daddy is here in Orlando for business, so of course Mommy and I joined him. Now ordinarily Mommy and Daddy would not take an almost 8 month old to Disney World, but we did happen to stumble upon the opportunity, so today we made the voyage. Mommy and Daddy couldn't get over at how different the entire experience was with a baby. Last time they were here was for their honeymoon... they rode rides... park hopped... not this time kids. I think I heard them say that they were having more fun this time around because of me! It's a totally different experience when you're waiting in line to get your picture taken with Winnie the Pooh as opposed to waiting in line for Splash Mountain. :) Here are some pix from our first day (these were pictures that the "characters" took in the park... Mommy has lots more of the parade and such but doesn't have her camera/pc cord with her, so you'll have to wait to see the rest until we get home)... tomorrow... we hit up Sea World. :)
Our new best friends... Mickey and Minnie Mouse... they're hot.We even got to meet Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, and Belle. Cinderella was by far the BEST princess there. She happened to be in love with me as well. For a second Mommy thought she was going to kidnap me, but alas she was just giving me some sugar. :)

TikTok Teens Are Dipping Their Balls In Soy Sauce And Lighting Their Houses On Fire
Typically, blog posts open with a broad statement establishing a thesis, which the writer then substantiates with evidence in order to make a point. In exceptional cases, there's just information so senseless that it needs no interpretation; in others, the writer isn't positioned to take a stance on an issue when it's better interpreted by a member of the community it affects. Who am I, in my capacity as a staff reporter and as a person without balls, to determine whether it's weird to dip your balls in soy sauce to see if they can taste?

We were heading up to our cabin for Memorial Day as usual. I was at home packing up our things when I heard Sydney and her friend Helene whispering away in the corner. They had a plan. "Mom can Helene come to the cabin with us this weekend?" It has always been the plan to take friends to the cabin so why not. Sounds like a plan.
We got in late Friday night after a dinner at the Macaroni Grill and the girls went straight to bed. The next morning the weather was nice. A little cool but good for the spring in Leadville. We decided to show Helene our beloved Turquoise Lake. Spring time at the lake is so weird. It is filled throughout the spring with snow melt. Its usually not until sometime in mid June until the lake is full. Until then its a weird moon like environment with streams flowing and filling the crater. You literally get to walk along the bottom of the lake. As the streams fill the lake bottom various small "islands" are formed. All of which makes perfect exploration time for the kiddos.
My girls waste no time throwing off their shows and wading through the freezing cold water. They are weird. I warned Helene against this insane behavior but she jumped right in with her friends. Although I will give her credit. Once was more then enough for her.
We posed for a couple more shots before heading deeper into the crater.
The girls found some larger mounds to climb and butt slide down. The mounds were made up of thousands of rocks. Funny to see what lies at the bottom of a lake. Surprisingly enough, this one is just rock after rock.
Some things are just better for having your buds around!
We went back to the cabin and played outside for a bit before heading inside for games. Finally it was bed time. Away to the bunks.
Sunday morning we woke up to a temp of 40 degrees and light snow. Helene was cold and soon vomiting. She spent the day resting in bed or watching Phineas and Ferb. Brandon took our girls on quick ATV rides before it was soon too cold for them as well. Spring time in Leadville is unpredictable at best. But at least our buddy still came around our lot for his nightly rounds.
Monday morning Helene was better and on the go. We packed up, cleaned up and were on the road. But not before getting one more shot with our buddy Wyatt. His health was heading down hill all weekend and we had a feeling this would be his last weekend up at his beloved cabin. Sad to say this was true. But, at least he went out with a bang. He loved this place and we are so happy he got to be here for a couple of years with us. He would roam his property several times and day and enjoy all the smells it had to offer. You were the BEST dog ever. You are so missed.

Empagliflozin Shows Potential as Oral Treatment for Type 2 Diabetes
On October 2, Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals, Inc., based in Ridgefield, Conn., announced data from a pooled analysis of two phase IIb trials of empagliflozin, an investigational sodium glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitor, in adults with type 2 diabetes. The trial data were presented at the 48th European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) Annual Meeting in Berlin, Germany.
The new analysis showed a reduction in systolic blood pressure (SBP) with empagliflozin that was independent of reductions observed in blood glucose or weight.
Empagliflozin belongs to a new class of drugs — SGLT-2 inhibitors — that is being investigated for the reduction of blood glucose levels in adults with type 2 diabetes. These drugs have been shown to reduce blood glucose, measured as hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), by acting independently of insulin action. HbA1C is measured in people with diabetes to provide an index of blood glucose control for the previous 2 or 3 months.
Most classes of currently available oral treatments for type 2 diabetes depend on the actions of insulin to lower elevated blood glucose levels. In contrast, the emerging SGLT-2 inhibitor class removes glucose through the urine by blocking glucose reabsorption in the kidney.
The pooled analysis included data from two randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials that assessed the safety and efficacy of treatment with empagliflozin alone (n = 408) or as add-on to metformin (n = 495) in adult patients with type 2 diabetes. The patients were treated with empagliflozin 10 mg or 25 mg. At week 12, the investigators assessed changes in both SBP and diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and measured whether changes in HbA1C or weight were related to changes in SBP. The researchers also analyzed a subgroup of patients with SBP greater than 140 mm Hg at baseline.
At week 12, reductions in mean SBP of 3.8 mm Hg and 4.5 mm Hg were observed with empagliflozin 10 mg and 25 mg, respectively, versus a mean reduction of 1.2 mm Hg with placebo. Mean SBPs at baseline of 131.3 mm Hg and 132.5 mm Hg were observed with empagliflozin 10 mg and 25 mg, respectively, versus 134.3 mm Hg with placebo. For both dosages, this reduction in SBP was statistically significant compared with placebo. In patients with higher SBPs at baseline (greater than 140 mm Hg), mean reductions of 17.0 mm Hg and 13.4 mm Hg were observed with empagliflozin 10 mg and 25 mg, respectively, compared with a mean reduction of 10.4 mm Hg with placebo.
Reductions in DBP were numerically greater with both empagliflozin doses compared with placebo, but these differences did not reach statistical significance. For the entire cohort, the reductions in DBP were 2.3 mm Hg and 2.7 mm Hg with empagliflozin 10 mg and 25 mg, respectively, versus 1.8 mm Hg with placebo. For patients with high DBP (greater than 85 mm Hg), the reductions were 8.1 mm Hg and 7.6 mm Hg with empagliflozin 10 mg and 25 mg, respectively, versus 6.1 mm Hg with placebo.

"Tricky Vic: The Impossibly True Story of the Man Who Sold the Eiffel Tower" (review)
Who doesn't love a good story about clever but (mostly) harmless con artists? There's nothing like watching someone (someone else) get hoodwinked.
And that's just what happens in Greg Pizzoli's "Tricky Vic," a native of what is now the Czech Republic, who was born Robert Miller. Bright, with a facility for languages and an aptitude for profitable gambling, his first big con was playing "Count Victor Lustig" and chatting up wealthy passengers on steamships traveling between Paris and New York City.
World War I put an end to his transatlantic cons, so he moved Count Lustig to Chicago — where Al "Scarface" Capone ran the underworld. Practicing his art meant that Tricky Vic needed to get Al Capone's blessing, and he found a foolproof way to do that.
Resuming his alias, Tricky Vic elaborated his con with a prop he called his "money-printing box." (It didn't really print money, but was fitted with rollers that pressed out two $100 bills that Tricky Vic hid inside before introducing the money-printer to greedy victims who paid many times $200 for the box.
But Tricky Vic wanted a bigger con. Upon learning that the city of Paris was contemplating the destruction of the dilapidated Eiffel Tower, Tricky Vic set his sights on France's most successful scrap metal dealers and galvanized a bidding war.
Fun Fact: Tricky Vic and his old pal Al Capone both spent time at the notorious Alcatraz prison. Find out how he got there by reading this book.

The Renewi group – formed by the merger of Shanks and Van Gansewinkel Groep (VGG) – has reported a loss in its municipal division in the face of austerity measures, poor performance or "inappropriate" contracts.
But the company's annual report says performance across the group during the financial year was in line with the board's expectation, and there is an upbeat approach to prospects for the merged group.
The statement from chief executive Peter Dilnot said the municipal division, which operates in the UK and Canada, had a difficult year. Revenue grew 8% to £203m following the commissioning of two facilities at Wakefield and Barnsley, Doncaster and Rotherham (BDR), as well as construction activity in Surrey, Canada.
But the division recorded a trading loss for the year of £2.7m, following a profit in the year before of £9.4m, as a result of operational challenges at the two new sites and other cost pressures.
Dilnot said the drop in profit was mainly down to a fall in value of refuse-derived fuel and "exceptional charges", including costs in restructuring the business.
He added that a new management team was making "rapid progress" in implementing a recovery plan.
2000 dilnot renewi
Dilnot (pictured) warned that PFI waste contracts in the UK were under pressure as a result of "austerity measures, poor performance or because the contracts are inappropriate in the current market environment".
"Within this unfavourable market background, our municipal division's portfolio of assets has been vulnerable contractually to the volatile recovered fuel markets, rising incinerator gate fees and the weakness of sterling," his statement said.
Renewi had previously acknowledged severe problems with the Derby private-public partnership, notably caused by the insolvency in 2016 of a core technology supplier to the contractor Interserve.
"Interserve is working hard to implement a recovery plan but there has been an unavoidable consequent delay to the project, and the facility is not expected to be fully operational until late in 2017-18. As the operator, rather than the constructor, the financial consequences for Renewi are limited and appropriate provisions for incremental costs have been taken as an exceptional item this year."
Renewi expects the impact on its municipal division to reduce progressively because it is seeking longer-term contracts for its fuels.
Overall, Dilnot said it had been a "transformational year", with the performance of the legacy Shanks business being in line with the board's expectations.
"We have already built up positive momentum as Renewi and are on track with the execution of our merger plans. Looking forward, our position in the emerging circular economy, coupled with the benefits of the merger, will deliver sustainable growth, margin expansion and attractive returns."
Referring to Brexit, Dilnot's statement notes that the vote has caused uncertainties in the waste market.
"Through the Brexit process, we expect the export of waste from the UK to continue for some time because there is a strong economic incentive for both the Netherlands and the UK to do so.
"Longer term, we believe the impact on the Dutch market is likely to remain limited. This is because an ultimate reduction in UK imports was already expected due to the commissioning of incinerator capacity in the UK and also new waste imports into the Dutch incinerators are being identified to take up any vacated capacity.
"We also believe that the UK Government will continue to drive environmental policies that will encourage recycling after the exit from the EU."

The word blindness is used for complete or nearly complete vision loss, which is not correctable by standard glasses, contact lenses, or medicine. Common causes of blindness are macular degeneration, infections of the cornea or retina, glaucoma, traumatic injuries, diabetes, etc. The treatment and prognosis for blindness is dependent on its cause.
Cataract is a clouding of the eye's natural lens, which lies behind the pupil. Most cataracts are related to aging and can occur in both the eyes. Surgery is the only way to remove a cataract and is usually safe and effective, resulting in improvement of vision. Most common symptoms of a cataract are cloudy, blurry, or misty vision.

Glaucoma is an eye disease that damages the optic nerve of the eye leading to loss of vision and even blindness. The disease usually affects both the eyes and is the second leading cause of blindness. Glaucoma is further categorized into open-angle glaucoma (OAG) and narrow angle glaucoma. Treatment usually involves eye drops, though lasers and surgery can also be done.

Optic neuritis is caused by inflammation or demyelination of the optic nerve, which transmits the image from the retina to the brain.

Medications, such as corticosteroids, can help speed recovery.

Nick "DiscoSheep" Geracie
Everything changed for Nick "DiscoSheep" Geracie in 2014 when he turned on his first LCS broadcast. Coming from a traditional sports background, seeing the level of Riot Games production value stunned DiscoSheep. He had some knowledge of the Super Smash Bros. Melee scene and played semi-pro Call of Duty 4 in the mid-2000s, but this was worlds away from what League of Legends was doing to western eSports.
After becoming a full-on eSports fanatic over the years, DiscoSheep started his eSports writing career in the summer of 2016, covering the NA LCS Summer Playoffs for the San Jose Mercury News. After subscribing to the life of a musician for 16 years, DiscoSheep did not expect to follow in his father's footsteps of sportswriting—well, eSports writing.
Upon partnering with Aaron Leupp, DiscoSheep co-founded HOWLA eSports in hopes of providing a central hub for all fans of eSports and gaming.

Brian "BadLuckBrain" Chatfield
Senior Writer/League of Legends Analyst
Having always had a passion for video games, it seemed almost like destiny for Brian to find his profession to be associated with them as well. Like many people, Brian started on video games from a very young age on the Super Nintendo just playing Mario. Since then the video gaming world has seen immense change, and for most it has been difficult to keep up.
Later on, he finally discovered League of Legends and suddenly gaming became more of a lifestyle than just a hobby. Immediately he was hooked and ground hours upon hours to get better and to learn more about the game with the hopes of eventually playing alongside his idols in the professional scene.
After learning more about the game than anybody around him Brian decided it was time to do more than just learn, and began to help other people learn the game too. After over a year of volunteer coaching and writing posts on Facebook to teach other players about League, he was finally approached with a chance to reach even higher in the LoL community. Nick Geracie and Aaron Leupp gave him the opportunity of a lifetime to work with Howla Esports and spread his knowledge of the game to people all over the world.

I have always strived to be the best at what I do, whether it be in video games or life endeavors. I started playing Gunz the Duel at an extremely young age, and reached number 1 in the world on Ijji Gunz for quite some time. After that game started to die down, I found myself playing my one true love: League of Legends. This game has broadened my horizons in more ways than anyone can imagine. My passion for the game is what keeps me going, and I can't wait to see where the scene takes us.

Being a big Navy town we love to see new novelty fabric that depicts the military. How is this for a great piece! Blue Angels, how about that Kim?
The fabric is from Kaufman, and they also have a free down loadable pattern to make this quilt. A 43″ x 48″ quilt, great for a little boy who is crazy about planes. (Or even a big boy…) The pattern is available at http://www.robertkaufman.com/quilting/quilts_patterns/blue_angels_quilt/
Also new from Kaufman this week is a reorder of the Cat in the Hat. Yes, we've had it before, but it sold so fast and we had so many people looking for it we got it in again.
Did any of you see the cute Yellow Brick Road quilt made from the Dr. Suess fabric in the shop?
Also, new in the shop is a new shipment of batiks! Light and dark backgrounds for a new batik block of the month we have coming soon…
And because when it rains it pours.. We also got in about eight bolts of Summer Breeze from Moda. Also fat quarter bundles and charms that have the entire collection of prints.
If you were considering a blue and yellow quilt you will want to come and check out this collection! Beautiful and a breathe of spring!
Here is a sample of some of the pieces. I think I need to call Sue and add some of that to my next box…Especially since it is April 1st, and snowing here. I could use that spring feeling!
Later, Sandra

Dead Battery, Flooding, Honda Pilot 2012
I fled Hurricane Harvey for two days and left my 2012
Honda Pilot in my garage. After I returned, I discovered
that my battery was so dead that the dashboard light
would not illuminate when I turned the key. At first I
thought it was the water that killed it, but the waterline
only came up about 1/4 of the way up the tire. When I
jumped it, the car horn started blaring immediately. The
battery is still dead, and I can't shift it into gear to get it
out of the garage. What should I do? Why was the horn
blaring? No sensors were submerged, and the engine is
completely dry... Should I replace the battery or is this a
different issue entirely?
1 Answer
your horn blares because the battery is to low and sets off the alarm when you open the doors without using the remote to unlock it if you never got any water near your wiring go ahead andd charge or replace the battery you should be ok then you will be able to see what caused the battery to go low in the first place

Vocabulary Lesson: imply v. infer
Even native-speaks get confused by this difference!
imply (that) = to suggest something is true without saying it
A: "You should get a new hairstyle."
B: "Are you implying that I look messy?"
"Adam implied he would lend me the money, but when I needed it, he said no."
"You did say you would help me move house on Sunday! I didn't imply anything!"
Grammar Lesson – making suggestions
There are many ways to make suggestions. We will look at making suggestions with should and could. One is much stronger than the other!
should – use should + base verb when you REALLY think it is a good idea to do something – you are telling the person what to do
"You should visit your mother more. She's getting very old."
Office expressions – Part 2
Here are some more office expressions you can start practicing!
touch base = make or renew contact with someone by phone, email or face-to face
"Let's touch base after the Christmas holidays so we can start the planning."
"I am going to touch base with an old colleague to see if she is interested in the sales manager's position."
Speaking lesson: interjections
Interjections are short little sounds such as oh!, um…, or huh?
We mainly use them in speaking.
They have no grammatical connection within a sentence.
In writing, we often use an exclamation mark (!) after an interjection.
"Hey John, are you coming? Hurry up!"
A: "Do you want to go to New York for the weekend?"
B: "Um", I'd like to, but I don't have any spare money at the moment."
Office expressions – Part 1
These are expressions you may hear in many English-speaking offices.
going forward = make a positive plan for the future
"During our meeting, we decided that going forward we need a more strategic social media campaign."
"Going forward, our sales team must communicate with customers more regularly."
action + something = make it happen (means the same as 'do it')
Grammar lesson – 'as (adjective) as ever' v. 'as usual'
These show continuous behavior, but there is a difference in how you apply them.
as busy/aggressive/lazy as ever = the person always shows this characteristic, it is his/her normal behavior. It can be a positive or negative adjective.
Tom is as busy as ever. He works 7 days a week.
My secretary is as efficient as ever. I never have to ask her to do anything twice.
Grammar – too v. very
The 'adverbs of degree' very and too can be confusing, so let's study the difference!
Look at the two sentences. How are they different?
A: It is very hot.
B: It is too hot.
A is a simple statement – It's HOT! In this sentence, 'too' is the same as 'really'.
However, B shows difficulty. For example, it may be so hot that people are getting sick (heat exhaustion).
Phrasal verbs with TELL
tell someone off: express unhappiness or disapproval with another person in a strong way
"I told my son off for lying to me about stealing the money."
"I was really upset after my manager told me off for not including her in the meeting."
tell on someone: report bad behavior (usually used by children)
"If you don't do your homework, I'll tell on you."
Vocabulary Lesson = stale v. spoiled
Both of these adjectives describe a negative condition of food, but there is a big difference between them.
stale (adj) = food that has gone hard with time…like bread or cake.
"Can you buy some fresh bread for breakfast on the way home? The loaf we have is stale."
spoiled (adj) = food is unfit to eat….like over ripe fruit or meat, or milk that has gone sour.
Phrasal verbs with THROW
throw out/away = put something in the garbage or get rid of it
'Canadians don't throw out plastic containers; they recycle them.'
'Did you throw away the leftovers from last night's dinner? I wanted to eat them for dinner.'
'I need to clean the fridge and throw out the old food. It smells terrible.'
throw out = remove someone from a place either by force or by law.
