I love seeing wild daffodils and here in Gloucestershire we have an area known as the Golden Triangle, where once they flowered so profusely, that they were picked commercially. Nowadays, they are less common, but fortunately there are still some areas where you can enjoy them.

Snowdrops at Cerney House Gardens
I thought I would take a peek at the snowdrops at Cerney House Gardens, near Cirencester, in Gloucestershire this week – they have been flowering for weeks now and guessed they wouldn't be around too much longer.
Elkstone Village Open Gardens
The Gloucestershire village of Elkstone is one of the highest villages in the Cotswolds and is situated half way between Cirencester and Cheltenham.
Pretty Painswick
The half-timbered lych-gate at St Mary's church, Painswick in Gloucestershire, looking pretty with the crocuses blooming in the sunshine today. The churchyard is world-famous for its 99 clipped yew trees.
Painswick is sometimes referred to at 'The Queen of the Cotswolds' and is a photographer's paradise.
The BBC drama, The Casual Vacancy based on a story by JK Rowling, is partly set in the village of Painswick.

Sezincote House and Garden
This is an extraordinary house – Indian in style, yet built of Cotswold stone and set among the Cotswold hills. It was built c1805 for the Cockerell family (a descendant of diarist Samuel Pepys's nephew).
John Betjeman, who visited as a student, mentions Sezincote in his poem 'Summoned by Bells': "Down the drive, Under the early yellow leaves of oaks… the bridge, the waterfall, the Temple Pool and there they burst on us, the onion domes."

Saints Can't Hang On Against Saltdogs Lose 6-5ST. PAUL, MN July 24, 2015
ST. PAUL, MN (July 24, 2015) – The St. Paul Saints have had trouble hanging on to leads against the Lincoln Saltdogs this season, but that was at Haymarket Park. It proved costly at CHS Field on Friday night as they gave up three in the eighth and lost 6-5 in front of 8,879.
With the Saints leading 5-3 in the eighth reliever Chris Peacock gave up a leadoff double to Curt Smith. He finished the night 3-5 and a home run shy of the cycle. Steve Tinoco drove home Smith with a single to center to make it 5-4 with Tinoco advancing to second on the throw home. A passed ball sent Tinoco to third and he scored on a sacrifice fly from Mike Gilmartin. Ryan Wiggins followed with a double and Peacock departed for left-handed reliever Alex Sogard. He got pinch hitter Mitch Canham to fly out to center, but Aaron Payne singled off the bag at first to knock home Wiggins and give the Saltdogs a one run lead.
In the bottom of the ninth the Saints threatened against hard throwing closer Marshall Schuler when Willie Argo led off with a double. Vinny DiFazio walked, but Schuler struck out Ian Gac, got Angelo Songco to pop out and struck out Joey Paciorek to end the game.
With the Saints trailing 1-0 in the third they jumped on starter Kevin McGovern. Dan Kaczrowski led off with a double down the third base line to extend his hitting streak to 10 games. Alozno Harris knocked him home with an RBI triple to tie the game at one. After a walk to Argo the Saints pulled off a double steal. Argo took off for second, the throw down to second wasn't in time and Harris raced home for the steal and gave the Saints a 2-1 lead. Argo then swiped third and scored on a sac fly from DiFazio to make it 3-1.
The Saints took a 4-1 lead in the fourth when they loaded the bases and Harris' infield single to short scored Songco.
The Saltdogs cut the Saints lead to 4-3 in the sixth when Brian Joynt walked. Curt Smith singled him to second. Steve Tinoco then hit a pop up to right that fell in front of Songco, but he was able to throw Smith out at second. A walk to Gilmartin loaded the bases and Wiggins came through with a two-run double to make it 4-3. Wiggins went 3-4 with three doubles, three RBI and a run scored.
The Saints tacked on what looked to be a big insurance run in the seventh when Harris reached on a bunt single and scored on DiFazio's RBI double to make it 5-3. Harris finished the night 3-5 with a triple, RBI and two runs scored.
The same two teams meet in the third game of the four game series on Saturday night at 7:05 p.m. at CHS Field. The Saints send RHP Jeff Shields (9-0, 3.04) to the mound against Saltdogs RHP Shairon Martis (4-2, 3.71). It is FFA Night presented by CHS. The game can be seen on the Saints Cable Network, cable access channels in the Twin Cities area, heard on Sports Radio 105 The Ticket and in the ballpark on 97.9 FM.

We are called to live life in continuous thanksgiving for Christ. Thus, our entire perspective on the world is transformed. No longer can we look at the things in our life as anything but a Gift from God. We are being prepared by God to enter into Eternal Communion with Him. The joys we experience are recognized as the fruit of this Communion. Even the very suffering we endure becomes a Gift which prepares us for the "weight of Glory" which is to come!
Our very thanksgiving for this Gift of Christ becomes a life of Stewardship—of caring for this Gift that is not our own. We care for this Gift of Communion with Him by living a life in which we dedicate all that we are—our Time, our Talents, and our Treasures—to God in thanksgiving for all that He has done for us. Thus, when we offer ourselves to the Church, our offering is no longer considered to be "in support" of our local parish, but as an offering of Thanksgiving to God. Our offering is then utilized by God in whatever manner He sees fit, unto His Glory.
TIME: God has graciously bestowed upon us the entirety of our lives. He has blessed us with 168 hours per week (or roughly a little more than 10,000 minutes/week). How many of these 168 hours do we offer to Him? Take some time to consider what you are willing to offer to God in thanks for all He has given you. Remember, time also includes your time in personal prayer and reflection.
TALENTS: God bestows upon each of us unique and wonderful abilities. These include the various ministries supported by the Church and can only be successful with your involvement. Please take some time to consider with what abilities God has blessed you.
TREASURES: Everything that we have is a blessing from God—all of our abilities, our time, and our treasures. Please take some time to pray about your relationship with God, and consider what you are able to offer in thanksgiving for all He has given you.
Please download a Commitment Card from our website or pick one up at Church. If you have any questions, please ask the Parish Priest or any of the Parish Council members.
Our email and website now offer the ability to donate via PayPal for Stewardship commitments as well as one-time donations.
PayPal has been around for many years, and it provides an option to create an account, which will make future donations fast and easy. However, you do not have to create an account; just use your credit card as you use it everyday when making internet purchases and rest assured that your information will be protected.
Making donations is even easier with the new phone app "Connect". See the instructions to download the app to your smart phone:

Every character is on a journey. Whether it's a journey to learn something, do something, or change something, they all must have a direction to travel in. If you've made them flawless, what can they learn? If they're doing something, why? What about their personality flaws makes them want to do it? If they want to change something, what is it? How can you give your character the two-punch they need?
Some flaws I love:
- Headstrong - These characters believe they're never wrong.
- Conceit - They love themselves so much, they feel they're perfect when they aren't.
- Mistakes of the Past - Oh man, these characters get themselves in so much trouble become they often become:
- Chronic Liars - Folks who lie to cover up a past they deem shameful.
- Revenge Seekers - Those people who can never ever just let it go.
- Addicts - The list of things people can be addicted to is long. Sometimes they know it, sometimes they don't.
Just remember, when you're writing that character bio, be sure you go into flaws. If you don't use a character bio, I beg you to start. Aren't familiar with character bios? Come back tomorrow and I'll give you a list of things you need to include.
Well, that's all for today, folks! Until next time, WRITE ON!

For New Yorkers concerned about overly aggressive policing, the death of Eric Garner was the moment their fear turned real. For police officers, who for months endured bitter protests after Garner's death, the assassination of Dets. Rafael Ramos and Wenjian Liu is their own nightmare come true.
Both groups fear violence. Both groups demand respect. Now, convinced of their positions by the tragic events of this year, both have closed ranks to square off — with the vast majority of New Yorkers stuck in the middle. To complete this triangle, we now find the mayor at odds with police.
We are, undeniably, in a bad place. And not far from this spot you can see a future that's even worse. In fact, if the distrust continues, we will miss an opportunity to make historic improvements to policing policy. Those improvements are necessary for the public and officers alike, and will help continue the historic declines in crime.
It is all the more vexing that this is where we are when, not only is the crime rate at extraordinary lows, but every single indicator of police behavior is trending positive. Stop-and-frisk is down from a high of 685,000 stops in 2011 to a low of fewer than 50,000 last year. Police complaints are down 11 percent; out of 34,000 police officers, there were just 81 incidents when they used their sidearm in 2013.
So it is in everyone's best interest to get back on track. But where do we go from here?
First, police and protesters must both acknowledge their biases. Police understandably bristle — as most people do — at the idea that they unfairly judge people based on a single characteristic, especially race. But the research is clear: every one of us acquire subconscious biases through our life experience. These, however, can be corrected.
For police, acknowledging these biases and learning to correct them with specific training is extremely important for their work, since they are entrusted with the lives of others. Just as important though, that same training and recognition will increase their own safety on the job.
Police are not alone in their biases. Their critics characterize them as a homogeneous, authoritarian force. This is a dehumanizing view, and it harms the relationship between them and individual officers.
So, for protesters, too, it is imperative that they see and treat cops as fellow New Yorkers.
Next, we must clear up this controversy over "broken windows" enforcement of low-level crimes. The largest determining factor of where such arrests are made is also the most democratic: the NYPD sends the most officers to areas where 911 and 311 complaints are highest. Why would we stop something that works so well?
Even so, the NYPD is continuing to move toward giving most officers the discretion to make fewer arrests by enforcing the law through more summonses and warnings, and by using other non-arrest techniques to resolve problems. It empowers them in the neighborhoods they patrol, and helps them avoid potentially dangerous and unnecessary conflict.
Commissioner Bill Bratton also has said he is moving the NYPD in the direction of quality not quantity of arrests, as he has laudably done with marijuana.
This, ironically, is exactly what protesters want, too. They may be calling for an "end" to broken windows policing, but really what they want — and rightly — is to ensure young men of color are not disproportionately prosecuted for low-level crimes.
Finally, communities must believe in the system. So let's empower them. Community Adjudication Panels should be established to decide punishments for certain local quality of life offenses that would not require jail or permanent records.
With such panels, not only would the community take ownership of the level of punishment for these offenses, the impact on the offender would also be much more meaningful than appearing before a faceless judge.
In the end, we all share common goals which collectively can be reached. The result of these steps will be a safer city.
Richard Aborn is president of the Citizens Crime Commission of New York City, a private watchdog organization.

I am getting more emails about the touch library I am using and let me say one thing, the library that the nuigroup is using through it's SVN is far more advanced so if you want my advice, use that one. I created this library because I liked building it and it suits my needs at the moment. I didn't wanted to release it because there might still be bugs in it and it's not finished yet because I wanted to release it with a full documentation. But due to the emails I receive, I would like to release it anyway. I quickly made a tutorial on how to get started and to show how simple it is to build a multi-touch application.

Editor's Note: It's not hard to see why the military loves the idea of robots. Wars are lost by the public's unwillingness to sacrifice the lives of its sons and daughters to far off conflicts that have little obvious bearing on their own lives. So the Pentagon is always looking for ways to wage wars that don't shed blood in copious amounts. Robots don't bleed, and when they are blown up, no one cries (except maybe their creators, but that's a different story). So we can easily understand the motive. What we wonder, though, is how long before Skynet takes over?
PhysOrg.com - August 13, 2009, by Dan De Luce
A prototype of the X-47B Navy Unmanned Combat Air System (UCAS) sits on display at Naval Air Station Pax River Webster Field Annex in St. Inigoes, Maryland, on August 10. The X-47B, made by Northrop Grumman Corporation, is to demonstrate the first-ever carrier-based autonomous launches and recoveries.
Robots in the sky and on the ground are transforming warfare, and the US military is rushing to recruit the new warriors that never sleep and never bleed.
The latest robotics were on display at an industry show this week at a naval airfield in Maryland, with a pilotless helicopter buzzing overhead and a "Wall-E" look-alike robot on the ground craning its neck to peer into a window.
The chopper, the MQ-8B Fire Scout, is no tentative experiment and later this year will be operating from a naval frigate, the USS McInerney, to help track drug traffickers in the eastern Pacific Ocean, Navy officers said.
The rugged little robot searching an enemy building is called a Pakbot, which can climb over rocks with tank treads, pick up an explosive with its mechanical arm and dismantle it while a soldier directs the machine from a safe distance.
There are already 2,500 of them on the ground in Iraq and Afghanistan, and a lighter version weighing six kilograms (14 pounds) has arrived that can be carried in a backpack, according to iRobot, the same company that sells a robot vaccum to civilians, the Roomba.
Monday's demonstration of robotic wonders was organized by defense contractors and the US Navy, which says it wants to lead the American military into a new age where tedious or high-risk jobs are handed over to robots.
"I think we're at the beginning of an unmanned revolution," Gary Kessler, who oversees unmanned aviation programs for the US Navy and Marines, told AFP.
"We're spending billions of dollars on unmanned systems."

I really like how some heroes have special comments against heroes that they consider rivals. Unfortunately not all of them posses these lines. For example, Rikimaru, Mirana, Void and probably more of them have no rival opponent to which they would have special responses, I don't see why because their rivals can be easy to figure out - anti invis heroes for riki, nightstalker (they are both nocturnal) and chen (perhaps ridiculing his mount?) for mirana, Weaver for Void, as they both manipulate time etc.
Is there any chance we might see these revisited?

BERKELEY, Calif. — "Well, there's a big difference between the agricultural definition and the political definition," says Torrey Olson, the owner of Gabriel Farms for the past 13 years, and "the agricultural one is what I agree with." He believes in using naturally occurring things to care for his crops and his flowers, which is part of his definition of organic.
Olson sells various fruits, dried lavender, flowers and other miscellaneous items in his stall at the Berkeley Farmers' Market. He considers his farm a "traditional family farm" and encourages people to come view the process of producing their fruit. "I mean, you want to look the person who grew your food in the eye, that's the ideal," he said. For him, the perfect definition of organic would allow the consumer to see where and by whom their food is being grown, not simply seeing a sticker that shows certification.
Expanding on what he meant by "political definition," Olson said that, technically, "organic" simply means being certified. There are usually many guidelines and necessary processes in order to obtain this certification. The Berkeley Farmers' Market requires its products to be 80 percent organic, with exceptions such as water and salt. As there are various ways to use the word, sometimes certain stores and products can be misleading in their labels. Certain companies that were known for their organic products have recently become owned by large corporations that don't meet the general idea of "organic."
Lilla Warren, who recently started working for "Blossom Bluff Orchards," said her definition of organic is slightly different than most. "Organic means free of pesticides and growth hormones. It doesn't necessarily have to be free of GMOs," she said, referring to genetically modified foods. "I think there's benefit to that, and how much it can produce. But everyone has a different opinion on it," he added.
Alan Utterback, selling bread at his booth, described organic products as having all the nutrients still intact in the food.
Whether they agreed on what makes a product "organic," the local farmers said they are looking to provide consumers with alternatives.

With Pearl Jam Destination Weekend, September 3-4 at Alpine Valley, now just days away, Pearl Jam will be returning to the stage after a 314-day break – their last live performance being October 24, 2010 at the Bridge School Benefit.
314 days! That's a lot of time, but this begs the question: "Is this the longest they've ever gone without playing a show?" The answer, believe it or not, is no; and, it's not even in the top 5! We've calculated the longest breaks between studio albums; now Andrew Brenner takes a look at the five longest breaks in Pearl Jam history.
- 409 days: October 22, 2001 -> December 5, 2002
- 403 days: July 1, 2008 – August 8, 2009
- 385 days: October 10, 1998 -> October 30, 1999
- 352 days: November 25, 1996 – November 12, 1997
- 347 days: November 6, 2000 – October 20, 2001
- 314 days: October 14, 2010 – September 3, 2011 – current!
A quick note. In order for a performance to be considered a "show," we're using the criteria of at least a 30-minute set where the entire band is present. Therefore, most TV appearances do not qualify, but Bridge School sets do.
409 days: October 22, 2001 -> December 5, 2002
After Pearl Jam's 11th anniversary show, a benefit for hunger October 22, 2001, "Groundwork 2001″, the band embarked on what would be the longest break from live shows in their history. October 22, 2001, would be one of the most unique sets of Pearl Jam's career, a 50 minute smorgasboard notable for the electric debut of "I Am Mine" and the only time "Long Road" has ever closed a set, guested by Rahat Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. With the exception of the band (sans Stone) opening for the Who at the House of Blues in Chicago on September 23, 2002, and a rare back-to-back performance on Letterman November 14-15, Pearl Jam would go 409 days between shows.
So what did they do with their break? Well, there was a small Brad tour at the end of November of '01, some Brad promo shows in August of '02, and a full out Brad tour in October. Ed was busy playing the random solo gigs here and there, and Matt was working on what would become Wellwater Conspiracy's 4th and final album. In all of this, Pearl Jam was able to find the time to get together and record Riot Act, which would feature the most songs on any Pearl Jam album to date. The band returned to the stage with a pair of club shows at the legendary Showbox in Seattle. Arguably the toughest ticket in Pearl Jam history, at the Showbox, Seattle, WA, December 5, 2002 would be a little sloppy, with Ed by the end of the show apologizing to fans for paying $36 to watch the band rehearse. The show is notable, however, for the live debut of seven songs off of Riot Act, as well as eventual fan favorite "Down." It also showed the band had thought about polishing off some of its older material during their break, as "Blood" was played for the first time since March 15, 1998 Brisbane, Australia (a 131 show gap).
403 days: July 1, 2008 -> August 8, 2009
Much like the 2001-2002 break, the last show before this one was a benefit show, a gig for the Robin Hood Foundation at New York's legendary Beacon Theatre, July 1, 2008. The Beacon show is unique in many ways, including being the only show to open with "Low Light," the fourth playing of "Undone", and the last full version of "W.M.A." "Harvest Moon" was played for the first time without "the Sleater-Kinney chorus" and it has not appeared on a setlist since. "Who You Are" and "Masters of War" have also disappeared from Pearl Jam setlists since this show, so clearly the end of the 2008 tour represents a turning of the page.
The break period represents a rather quiet time for the band, in terms of public appearances. Pearl Jam would appear on July 12, 2008, for the taping of "VH1′s Rock Honors: the Who", playing "Love, Reign O'er Me," and their first full cover of "The Real Me." The band spend considerable time in the studio during the break, coming back with Backspacer, released on September 20th. Backspacer would go on to become the band's most critically-acclaimed album of the decade, and earned the band two Grammy nominations, their first since "Grievance" in 2001.
August 8, 2009, Calgary, AB, marks the kickoff of one of Pearl Jam's more interesting years, and it's also got a notable setlist. "The Fixer" and "Got Some", soon to become live staples, make their live debuts, and "Brother" is played for the first confirmed time since February 7, 1991 (as Mookie Blaylock) – FAR AND AWAY the longest gap between renditions of any song in the Pearl Jam catalog. "The Real Me" was played for the first time at a Pearl Jam show, but there were few other notable aspects to this show.
385 days: October 10, 1998 -> October 30, 1999
Like the two predecessors on this list, Pearl Jam capped off their 1998 tour with an unscheduled performance. In this case, repaying a favor with an unannounced opening gig for Cheap Trick at Seattle's Crocodile Café, October 10, 1998. Despite a nearly 3 week layoff, Pearl Jam plays a super-tight 50 minute set to cap off one of their most successful years, and the show would turn out to be their last electric show of the decade. Most notable is that after this show, it will be 150 shows until the return of "All Those Yesterdays" on July 11, 2003, Mansfield, MA.
The break would be used well, as most of the songs for Binaural would be written during this time. Jeff took a chance to do a two month club tour with Three Fish, following the release of their second album, Quiet Table. Stone spent a little time with Brad, working on some of the songs that would appear on Welcome to Discovery Park; he was also working on some of the material that would later appear on his solo album Bayleaf during this period. Mike took a break from the band to deal with some personal issues, while Matt was in the studio working on Wellwater Conspiracy's second album, Brotherhood of Electric: Operational Directives.
Ed was, as always, a busy bee. At some point during the break, Ed began toying around with a ukulele, though it's unclear how many of the songs on the Uke demos he recorded in 2000 were written during this time. He played 5 shows with local band C-Average, the biggest of which was as at the Tibetan Freedom Concert, marking the 3rd straight year that he had appeared at the festival. The highlight of Ed's "summer break," however, was a show with C-Average on July 14th, 1999, where they played a set entirely of Who covers. He would also finally make a dream come true by appearing as a special guest at two intimate Pete Townshend solo shows, as well as offering backing vocals on Pete's July 28, 1999, Letterman appearance.
Pearl Jam returned to the stage for the 1999 Bridge School Benefit, October 30-31, playing both nights. The first night saw the debut of "Thin Air," in an otherwise standard Bridge set; however, the true highlight of the night came when the full band returned to the stage for the final jam, a cover of Dylan's classic "I Shall Be Released." The second night opens with the debut of "Nothing As It Seems," still unique in the Pearl Jam catalog for its slow, bluesy opening. Mike wears a silver mask, and Ed dedicates a special version of "Last Kiss" to his friend Maricor. While not an incredible set of shows by any means, they mark a band in transition as the new millennium nears, and 2000 will be a very important year in the band's history.
If you take out these two acoustic shows, between October 10, 1998 and May 10, 2000, Bellingham, WA, Pearl Jam would not play a non-acoustic show for 578 days.
352 days: November 25, 1996 -> November 12, 1997
The 1996 tour ended with a huge bang November 25, 1996, Cascais, Portugal, with Pearl Jam putting on an epic show. "Who You Are" opened for the only time in its history; after this show it would be played only twice on the Australian leg of the 1998 tour before disappearing for over a decade until June 11, 2008. "Hunger Strike" appears; it would only do so again twice in the next 7 years. "Sometimes" is played in the middle of the set, the last time it has done so at a regular show. "Tremor Christ" makes its last appearance as a setlist regular, never returning to its 1996 frequency after this show. "Yellow Ledbetter" is played 2nd to last, something that has happened only a handful of times since.
Here is where you'll see a pattern develop. During Pearl Jam's break from the road, Stone would play two months of shows with Brad, Ed would make a few solo appearances here and there, and Pearl Jam would record an album; in this case, Yield. 1997 would be a quiet touring year for Pearl Jam, until they were asked to open four shows for the mighty Rolling Stones at Oakland Stadium in November. As a warmup, the band plays a "surprise" show, billed as the Honking Seals at the Catalyst, a club in Santa Cruz, November 12, 1997. The show kicks off the Yield era, with "Given to Fly," "Wishlist," and "Do the Evolution" making their live debuts; all three songs would go on to become arena sing-alongs and standards of the Pearl Jam catalog. "Brain of J" returns reborn after its November 1995 appearances as "Brain of JFK." Originally a standard in '98, the song has appeared less and less with each successive tour. Still, this warmup show gives fans a good gauge of where the band is headed in their monster 1998 tour.
347 days: November 6, 2000 -> October 20, 2001
2000 was arguably the most difficult year in Pearl Jam's history, and in terms of actual touring, it would be followed by the longest break in the group's career; there would be no real tour again til 2003. As such, what a way to end it. November 6, 2000, Key Arena, Seattle, WA, sits in the pantheon of all-time Pearl Jam shows. The clear highlight of this show was the triumphant return of "Alive," which returned after a 47-show gap, the longest in the song's history. As the song that was next on the setlist when the Roskilde tragedy occurred, the song had been put into storage, and its emergence signaled the band turning the page; it was a cathartic moment for both band and fans perhaps unmatched in Pearl Jam's live career. Many of the Binaural songs would fade into obscurity after this show, most notably "Light Years," which was played at 46 of the 74 2000 shows, and has only been played 28 times since. "Evacuation" and "Parting Ways" were never setlist regulars, but both have been played only 8 times since. This show marked the definitive end of an era.
The break was pretty quiet for much of the band, and they didn't spend much time in the studio. Ed, as always, was most active, showing up at a Who show on November 27, 2000 in London, guesting on five songs. In April of 2001, he joined Neil Finn's all-star band for a 4-night stand at the St. James Theatre in Auckland, New Zealand, highlights of which would later be released on DVD and CD as Seven Worlds Collide. He also made a stop at a Ben Harper show to guest on "Indifference" while he made the rounds down under.
Matt took to the road with Wellwater Conspiracy in the summer of 2001, and Ed guested at two of their shows. Stone, per usual, got in a few Brad shows, and Mike even showed up on his own at the San Diego Street Scene Festival in September. There's no need to rehash the horrible tragedy of 9/11, but Ed, Mike, and guest Neil Young offered up one of the more haunting performances of "Long Road" on the Tribute to Heroes special on September 21, 2001.
As we've seen throughout Pearl Jam's career, however, all roads lead to Bridge. October 20-21, 2001 was the band's fifth Bridge School appearance, and the band has since returned three more times, plus an Ed solo appearance in 2004. "Gimme Some Truth," "Driftin'," and the Mike McCready-penned "Last Soldier" all debut on October 20, and Ben Harper guests with Pearl Jam on "Indifference" for the first time since September 11, 1998. Ed's 9/11 inspired song "I Am Mine" would debut at the October 21 show, as would "Low Light", becoming the last Yield song to be played live ("Red Dot" and the hidden track don't count, nitpickers). After playing for a 3rd straight day on October 22 at the aforementioned Groundwork Benefit, Pearl Jam would again take a long breather from the road, taking a 409 day break between shows. In all, between November 6, 2000 and December 5, 2002, Pearl Jam would play only 3 short sets in 756 days (only one of them electric, and an abbreviated set at that). Luckily for us, a break of that length has never been repeated, and our boys will be back on stage September 3rd after only 314 days off.

Soaked cashews blended with basil, chives, and tarragon, briny capers, fresh garlic, and plenty of lemon juice punch up the flavors of this verdant creamy cashew green goddess dressing, sauce, or dip for raw or roasted vegetables, salads, and sandwiches. Naturally vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free.
It's no secret that we're big green goddess fans around here. Basil, chives, and tarragon (sometimes with dill or parsley) make an addictive blend of flavors and tend to beautify anything they touch with a spring green hue. And it's no wonder, since the green goddess salad originated in our fair foggy city of San Francisco nearly 100 years ago at the Palace Hotel. The story goes that chef Philip Roemer invented the dressing in 1923 in honor of actor George Arliss, a guest at the hotel while he starred in a play with the same name. The original dressing is made with mayonnaise and anchovies in addition to the herbs and seasonings. But here's an easy vegan version that may be even tastier than the original, and sure to please vegans and vegetarians alike.
The recipe takes inspiration from Andrea's garlic & herb cashew cream sauce, a mix of soaked cashews blended with fresh herbs, lemon, garlic, and olive oil. The sauce features in her stunner of a cookbook paired with kohlrabi fritters which Erin captured so beautifully here.
For my green goddess version, I use a mix of basil, chives, and tarragon, and I add capers to take the place of the salty/briny anchovies in the traditional version. Plenty of garlic, lemon juice, and a slug of olive oil punch up the flavors. We love this on salad (and tomorrow I'll share our current favorite), but it's thick enough to use as a dip for crackers, bread, or fresh vegetables or to spread on sandwiches or wraps. Thin it with a bit more water and it takes on a drizzleable consistency for greens or roasted vegetables.
Made with nourishing plant-based ingredients and packed with fresh flavor, this creamy cashew green goddess dressing is sure to bring out the inner green goddess in you.

Why a Book Club Can Help Your Career
by Valerie Carrillo
I love to read a good book. Before I relocated to Knoxville a couple of years ago, one of my favorite activities was attending the monthly book club in my neighborhood. Not only was it a great way for me to diversify my reading, but I also found it was an important way for me to make new connections and discover what was happening in my neighborhood. For two hours, we would eat great food, sip wine and discuss our book of the month. It was fun. Not everyone had time to finish the book, but it was enormously helpful to get us to commit to reading.
We often think of reading as something we do alone, especially when it comes to books on leadership and career advancement. However, business book clubs can be an essential component of your leadership development. It can sharpen your intelligence, improve your emotional intelligence, plus make you a better communicator.
If you have not been to a WICT book club meeting, here are a few reasons you should consider joining:
When you join a business book club, you will find yourself reading genres that you might not otherwise choose to read. And business book clubs often have a diverse group of colleagues with different perspectives, which can lead to interesting conversations. And because you know you will be discussing a book with your peers, you are more than likely going to read it more deeply than a typical neighborhood book club.
Most book clubs are about relationships. They provide an opportunity for friends to meet and discuss topics of mutual interest. Sometimes this is done over dinner and drinks, like my neighborhood club. And while corporate book club may not serve drinks, they do offer a way to build and deepen relationships through shared learning. It is a safe environment where you can build trust in your co-workers, share ideas, or even debate ideas.
Discussing content in a book club can help you feel more confident in professional conversations with colleagues, team meetings or boardroom presentations. And the best way to become a good conversationalist is to practice. Attending a regular book club meeting allows you a safe place to learn how to engage in discussion without feeling awkward.
Your brain needs exercise just like the rest of your body. With all the gadgets and electronics, we are always plugged in, so it is hard to concentrate on one thing. When you read, you are forced to concentrate, which then opens your mind to new ideas and fosters creativity.
Book clubs are good for minds. Good for leadership. Good for business. If you are looking to grow both professionally and personally, check WICT Southeast's event calendar to see when the next book club is in your area. Not only will you become a better reader, you will also meet some great new friends.

text: Lynn Burkhead, OutdoorChannel.com Potential Record-breaking 429-plus Bull Elk Arrowed A bowhunter reportedly tagged a monster bull elk on Sept. 10 while solo bowhunting in Montana; the early green scores from this potential Pope & Young archery world's record typical bull is a staggering 444 7/8 inches gross and 429 6/8 inches net A typical elk, taken on Sept. 10 in Montana, has the potential to top the current Pope & Young world's record. The elk has a reported gross green score of 444 7/8 inches and a net green score of 429 6/8 inches. (Photo courtesy of Boone and Crockett) When the month of September rolls around, I always get a little curious to see when the first Internet reports of a potential world's record elk, mule deer, pronghorn antelope or whitetail will surface on the Internet.Why? Because late August and early September is when Western big game hunting seasons begin in earnest, not to mention a few early bowhunting and muzzleloader seasons for whitetails in scattered portions of the country.Given the speed at which news – and rumors – can fly now across both the Internet and social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Snapchat, and it is little surprise big buck or bull news that used to take days, weeks or even months to trickle out now speeds from coast-to-coast in a matter of minutes.Sometimes record-book animal information is solid, sometimes it is not. Hence, the annual rash of early autumn rumors – and my potential skepticism – about big critters with massive antlers, sometimes being touted as potential world record critters. So you'll understand when an e-mail arrived in my Inbox over the past few days, I nearly rolled my eyes when I saw the subject line touting the possibility of a new world's record typical bull elk with a bow. Until I noticed this wasn't some random e-mail, but an official news release from the Boone & Crockett Club. Needless to say, the e-mail suddenly had my attention.And now the breaking big game news contained in the e-mail has the attention of hunters everywhere since B&C says a typical bull elk taken by a Montana resident bowhunter on Sept. 10 could in fact be a potential new world's record bow kill for an American elk.Specifically, if the news is confirmed after the 60-day drying period, then the early-archery season bull reportedly taken on Saturday, Sept. 10 could become the new Pope & Young Club's archery world's record typical elk.The bowhunting world has been rocked in the last few days with news of a massive typical bull elk being taken by an unidentified hunter in Montana. If the reported 429 6/8 inch net green score is upheld after the official 60-day drying period, the bull appears poised to shatter the existing Pope & Young Club world's record mark. (Photo courtesy of Boone and Crockett Club) While details are still somewhat sketchy and slim, the B&C news release reports some eye popping numbers. It indicates the massive bow-harvested bull elk has a reported green gross score of 444 7/8 inches and a green net score of 429 6/8.After the bull was harvested, it reportedly took the bowhunter – who was hunting solo and is choosing to remain anonymous for the moment – a couple of days to pack the animal out.When he finally got his massive bull to the taxidermist, a Boone & Crockett Club measurer was summoned and a rough green score was obtained. It is important to note due to the mandatory 60-day drying period referenced above, the above numbers are not official.Still, they should be very much in the ballpark of the final numbers that will be obtained in a couple of months.And if those 60-day entry score numbers eventually verify through future panel scoring by Boone & Crockett and/or Pope & Young Club measurers (all potential world's record animals are panel scored), then the Montana bull elk could eventually become the new bow-killed benchmark for the species."The antlers need to complete a required 60-day drying period before they can be officially scored," said the Boone and Crockett Club's Director of Big Game Records, Justin Spring, in a news release. "But a senior B&C measurer taped the bull, so we're confident with the green score."To put the early numbers on this bull into proper perspective, the current Pope and Young Club world's record typical American elk was taken back on Sept. 16, 2005, in the big bull-rich state of Arizona.That world's record bull from Coconino County was harvested by former NFL football player Shaun Patterson, a defensive lineman for Arizona State and then the Green Bay Packers from 1988-93.When the Patterson Bull was panel scored by the Pope & Young Club, the giant 2005 elk was given a final score of 412 1/8 inches.For the record, Patterson's 2005 world's record bull topped the 2000 world's record bull, a 409 2/8 inch typical elk killed by renowned archer Chuck Adams while he was hunting in Montana.Incidentally, Adams nearly broke his own world's record mark in 2003 when he tagged another Montana bull that eventually netted out at 399 1/8 inches. That bull was a part of a tremendous five-year run of elk hunting success that saw Adams tag five bull elk – including his world's record – that all gross scored more than 370-inches.It's been more than a decade since former NFL football player Shaun Patterson set the current Pope & Young Club's world's record for a typical American bull elk. That benchmark appears to be in serious jeopardy after an unidentified bowhunter in Montana tagged this massive bull. (Photo courtesy of Boone and Crockett Club)But that was then and this is now with the news of a giant Montana bull elk by an unknown hunter.In addition to potentially becoming the Pope & Young Club's world's record for an archery killed typical American elk, Boone & Crockett Club officials indicate the current green score of this epic bull elk is some 4 3/8 inches higher than the current #4 typical bull in the B&C All-time Record listings."This bull may well be the largest typical American elk taken in the last 48 years," acknowledges Spring.While this Montana bull elk won't threaten the current B&C world record mark – that bull is a 442 5/8-inch monster taken by Alonzo Winters in Arizona's White Mountains back in 1968 – it is still historical news as potentially the fourth largest bull of all-time with any weapon (rifle, muzzleloader or bow)."After meeting the hunter, hearing the story and seeing the photos, I knew this was a special animal and a historic moment in big game hunting and conservation," said Spring. "I immediately contacted P&Y."With a potential world's record elk happening in the first year of his tenure with the P&Y Club, executive director Joe Bell issued the following statement:"Any game animal taken in an ethical, sportsmanship-like manner is a trophy worth honoring," said Bell, a former editor of a bowhunting magazine who took over the top post at Pope & Young in 2015."However, some specimens are remarkable, not only for their size, but how they symbolize successful conservation efforts," he continued."The existence of outstanding specimens like this incredible animal is testament that today's hunters, wildlife professionals and conservation organizations are achieving tremendous success by practicing sound conservation and wildlife-management programs."What will be next for this giant Montana bull elk? First, the animal's rack has to complete the mandatory 60-day drying period following the reported Sept. 10, 2016, harvest.Then, providing the hunter chooses to have the bull officially scored, the giant bull elk will likely be given an initial entry score, one that would not become final until a panel scoring session of measurers takes place at some point between now and the P&Y Club's 2017 National Convention next April 5-8 in St. Louis, Missouri.At that point, the bull could indeed officially become the new typical bull elk king of the bowhunting world.In the meantime, stay tuned to OutdoorChannel.com as details emerge about this giant elk and this story continues to develop.Current Pope & Young Club Top-10 Typical American Elk 412 1/8, Shawn Patterson, Arizona, 2005 409 2/8, Chuck Adams, Montana, 2000 404 0/8, William Wright, Arizona, 1992 402 5/8, Will Huppertz, Alberta, 2004 400 4/8, Larry C.

It's Okay, But Wouldn't Drive It In The Winter Months. — I like that it gets me from point A to point B, it starts up in 20 below weather, RV cam, and the 4 wheel drive. I don't like that the heater don't work, the brake lights don't work, turn signals don't work, tie rods are bad, and brakes are bad.
Pros: 3/4 ton, old Rancher truck, RV cam big block 400 6.6L, starts right up in 20 below weather
Cons: Fuel gauge don't work, brake lights don't work, turn signals don't work

A really great video of Matthew Hoggard's 7 for 61 against South Africa, January 2005. The only blemish to an otherwise enthralling few minutes of video is the diabolical commentary from Bob Willis. He "described" (reacted to) the first five wickets, so you can turn the sound up on the sixth.
This was one of the first bloggage things I blogged about; the victory in South Africa was quite something to watch. Click here if you can't see it below.

This a project from 2010 which I have just gotten around to posting about. It's a 19th century reclaimed pine piece from a chapel somewhere in Nova Scotia. It looks like it's in a gothic revival style, the carving is impressive and must have taken quite a while to do at the time. The plan was to add a base, install drawers and use the piece as a feature sideboard/buffet. As usual posting some images taken during construction to give you an idea of the process.
One of the first things to do was to take apart, repair and reinforce the structure. Added extra support for the drawer on both sides.
I built a new platform shown above to help support the top sections. Screwed the top sections to the platform so that the drawers opened and closed smoothly.
The photo above shows installed drawers and some furniture repair work in progress. I custom made the drawers out of poplar and attached pine fronts.
Here are the new support bases. Laminated mdf and added inset molding details to give them some character. Mdf is sometimes frowned upon but it is nice to work with, except for the dust.
After installation… turned out really well.

Rebels release baseball roster
With practices in the gym and lots of snow left to melt, the 2014 Moose Lake/Willow River Rebels baseball team, under the direction of Matt Niedzielski, has released the varsity roster. Niedzielski, in his second season at helm, has Scott Battaglia and Bryce Rushmeyer returning as assistants. Assisting on a volunteer basis is Rebels alum Spencer Clough.
"We were 6-6 in the short conference season last year," recalled Niedzielski. "We won the first playoff game to get to the double elimination round and were the fourth seed. Our numbers this year are about the same on the varsity, but we have very good numbers among the junior high and that's always good for the future. We have about 30 junior high kids. Our first game was to have been April 8."
Battaglia took over and posted the pre-season roster as follows: Zach Christoperson, sophomore, catcher; Dean Flaherty, freshman, first; Brad Fossum, junior, pitcher, infield and catcher; Kody Gerard, junior, outfield, first; Jesse Granfors, junior, infield, catcher, pitcher; Hunter Halverson, junior, outfield; Justin Hibke, junior, outfield; Wyatt Lampel, pitcher, infield; Dylan Lovegreen, senior, pitcher, infield; Spencer Meyer, sophomore, infield, outfield; Chet Morgan, infield; Teddy Ryan, pitcher, outfield; JJ Sayler, senior, pitcher, infield; Zach Schwartzbauer, sophomore, infield; Joey Whited, senior, infield, pitcher; Brady Witkowski, junior, outfield; Kyle Zimmerman, freshman, outfield.

|Tulip image courtesy of Twiggy Posts
Did you know a mirror is just piece of glass coated on one side with reflective metal? A mirror reflects your outward image, but it can't give you any information about:
who you are.
what you were made to do.
what's important and valuable about you.
your worth.
"For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them." (Ephesians 2:10 ESV)Stare long and hard, but your mirror can't define these things.
Let God define what's beautiful about you.
"Do not let your adorning be external--the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry, or the clothing you wear--but let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God's sight is very precious. For this is how the holy women who hoped in God used to adorn themselves, by submitting to their own husbands," (1 Peter 3:3-5 ESV)What's does God say is beautiful in His sight?
Your spirit. The hidden person of the heart that the mirror can't reflect. This is the place where God chooses to dwell by His Spirit, producing in you gentleness and quietness. I don't think this is necessarily about volume, but about a spirit submitted to His.
I think God loves the work He's about in His creations because it brings Him glory. If you belong to Him, He loves the changes that are happening in your heart. He loves the way you're growing and changing. He loves the work He gets to do through you as you go about your day (see this post about that!).
If we're going to fuss over something friends, let's fuss about our spirits, not our fashion (although I don't think there's anything wrong with enjoying fashion. The issue is what our hearts are attached to).
"For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." (Matthew 6:21 ESV)Let's lead our spirits again and again back into slavery to His. When we see we're wrong, let's repent and mourn and cling to the One who made us right at the cross.
I'm going to do my best to obey God and take care of this body I was given until God gives me a new one free of sin and sickness.
But this body is not who I am.
I'm getting white hair and my shape is totally different than it was when I was 20. Any beauty I once had will continue to fade. If my hope and my identity are there, I will despair.
But if I place my hope in God, along along with the long lineage of beautiful women of the past, my identity rests on His unchanging grace and love for me.
PRAYING the Word
I pray that God will continue to cultivate the beauty of my heart, and that I would value that beauty more than any other.
1. The beauty God loves is hidden in our hearts. What does that mean for how we see the people around us?
2. Think about this beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit. Who are some people in your life who are beautiful in this way?
2. Think about this beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit. Who are some people in your life who are beautiful in this way?
3. How can we help grow this kind of beauty in our hearts?*I'm so happy for you to enjoy my coloring pages and printables for your personal (not commercial) use!

Okay this is driving me absolutely nuts.. I've checked the hotkey input area and it's set up the same as 2.63 so I'm not sure why it acts different.
In 2.64, when I use the bounding box select tool (b), I have to let go of B before I can click and drag the box. In 2.63 I could click+drag while still holding B.
I know this is some small thing but I can't stop myself from doing it, my brain is hardwired to the old way. How do I fix this ?

A while back a Skull Fucked post caught my eye about this record. It was revealed that Obliteration shares the same singer as Knife Fight. Not to mention, it's released on the powerhouse Beach Impediment Records, who appears to do no wrong. This is fast, noisy, sleazy stuff that many relate to Scandinavian hardcore, but I wouldn't know because I haven't listened to much Scandinavian hardcore. I picture it more like Knife Fight but with more sing along choruses and goofy (and awesome!) guitar solos. This is a total banger... Pressed on black out of /600.

Ruleta Rusa
Behold one of the best releases of the year... San Francisco Mexican punk rockers Ruleta Rusa debut LP "Aqui No Es". Ruleta Rusa is from San Francisco and their vocalist used to sing for Peligro Social, another great band. I have seen the name on fliers but sadly I haven't caught these guys live yet. I stumbled on this in the Sorry State webstore and quickly grabbed it once I read the description. This is the mail order edition on red vinyl with an obi strip, limited to /163 and still available. Even though I don't speak Spanish, I think Spanish and punk rock go together perfectly. All the music on this and the vocals are excellent. I just wish I knew what the fuck they were saying... Can't wait to catch these dudes live when they play out here again. Don't sleep on a chance to get this on limited vinyl.
Check out Ruleta Rusa live above.

Gas Rag - Human Rights
Gas Rag from Chicago is one of those "it" bands right now. Lately there has been a big revival of noisy, simplified d-beat inspired Neanderthal punk. Gas Rag also just came out with their debut LP which the limited colors sold out too fast for me to snag one. I am digging this, it reminds me of East Bay style hardcore that has been going on for years out in here the Bay Area. When I hear this release, I can't help but think of Rotten Fux, which puts a big smile on my face. This is the 2nd pressing with red and yellow center labels out of /500. I'd love to track down a first press of this on red out of /100, which appears to be the only "limited" variant of this out there. Beach Impediment strikes again, they are killing it right now! Check out Gas Rag live below...

Strictly 4 My Jeeps
In the rap game today, Action Bronson is surely one of the best MC's to grace the mic in the last decade. 90's revival rap that takes no prisoners and brings a fresh take on raps golden age. His EP "Saab Stories" seems to take a little bit more of a mainstream approach than his other releases, and I must admit that I prefer his other releases more than this one. However, seeing this get sold out really fast on red vinyl inspired me to grab it on white vinyl when I saw it at a local record store in Santa Cruz. Bronsalino is still the man, so anything he puts out on vinyl from here on out... I'm all over it. If you aren't familiar with him, check out the "Strictly 4 My Jeeps" video below. Bam bam in the buildin.

RSD 14 Pt. 6: THE BELTONES
It was great to get some of these RSD releases... The UN album, the One Man Army album, and all the others were just sweet bonuses. But for RSD, I had my eye on the prize for one piece of wax... The Beltones "On Deaf Ears". The Beltones are arguably my favorite band and have been one of the major influences on me ever since I was 13 years old. I even chose The Beltones to celebrate my 100th post nearly 2 years ago. This release is an absolute classic. Unfortunately, when it was released in 1998 it was only on CD. It took 15 years to come out on vinyl but the wait was worth it!
I've been lucky enough to catch the Beltones live twice over the last few years, and both times I hounded them to release this on vinyl. I also hounded Mark from TKO Records at the One Voice Fest this summer to release this on vinyl. I was thrilled when I heard they would finally be pressing it for RSD. I like the little story on the lyrics sheet.
For historical reference (because no doubt someone will read this before they pay a bunch of money for one of these on Ebay in a few years...) The TKO Records version (Splatter) only has one sticker and is not shrink wrapped, with the sticker being on the poly sleeve. The black copies are shrink wrapped with two stickers.
The splatter vinyl is out of /300 and the black is out of /2000. The splatter vinyl is amazingly still available! Considering that old Beltones vinyl goes for big bucks on the bay, I figured these would be long gone. If you don't have a copy, go pick one up and I promise you will not regret it. Without a doubt this will end up being my favorite and most important release of the year, and I'm super thankful it's finally out on vinyl.
Check out this later 90's live footage of the Beltones playing "My Old Man".
"Another empty bottle thrown over your shoulder, another hazy morn grown another day older, another weekend gone and so are you. And all the bottles collecting up on the shelf are there to ease the pain but it just done help, so now you hate yourself and you hate me too.
Well lookin at you puts a lump in my throat and makes it hard to swallow my beer, there's a reason that it's giving me the fear. Cuz you're shaking like a leaf and I've seen that shake before my friend. I ain't giving you no shit just understand... You're looking like my old man!"

RSD 14 Pt. 5: Up Front & Autistic Behavior
I am going to admit that I had never heard this record. I have seen the iconic cover, but never owned any copies of it and never took the time to find a download for it or listen to it. Shame on me. I'm glad I got one of the RSD represses of this. Out of /700 on red vinyl and looking sharp. Just what you would expect out of late 80s East Coast youth crew.
Here is a release of early 80s punk that I have never heard of before Record Store Day, and this was totally an impulse buy. It sounded good enough on youtube after a quick preview to throw in my online shopping cart. I got the version on splatter vinyl which apparently is long gone out, out of /500. They also pressed this again on red and black vinyl on a larger pressing. This is a decent release but it's not exactly blowing me away.

RSD 14 Pt. 4: Die Kreuzen & Toxic Reasons
I was pretty excited when I heard there would be a repress of Die Kreuzen's first EP from Beer City Records for RSD. "Cows and Beer" is surely a 80s Midwest Hardcore classic that can't be denied. When I saw Sorry State Records post it online the day after RSD, I quickly ordered it without hesitation. While doing some research for this post, I realized there was 5000 of these pressed, with 1000 each on five different colors. That irritates the fuck out of me. 5000 pressed, are you fucking kidding me? That is just way too many pressed.
It did come with a really cool comic book. This is the third comic book I have now in a release... The others are from Bumpy Knuckles and Cross Examination.
I also threw in the Toxic Reasons seven inches that were Beer City RSD releases. These were slightly more limited at 1000 per release. "War Hero" was the bands first release, recorded in 1980. I must admit I had heard the name but I had never actually heard Toxic Reasons. I did a quick youtube search to hear the song "War Hero" before purchasing, and threw it in the mix without hesitation. Now I'm glad I picked this one up since it seems it sold out pretty quick.
This was recorded in 1981 and is a great release as well. The track "Ghost Town" mixes in some reggae elements, while "Killer" and "Noise Boys" get right back to business. I'm glad I picked these up, I downloaded all the songs and now I've been listening to them quite a bit. Great stuff!

RSD 14 Pt. 3: Taang! Box Set
I was very pleased to see Taang! was doing a box set this year for RSD with their first ten singles. Some of them are fluff (Moving Targets and Oysters, I'm looking at you), but without a doubt a couple very heavy hitters in there. I have never owned any of these of vinyl, so I was glad to add them all in one shot.
Nice professional sturdy box, it even has some velvet type material on the inside.
Here's the lions share of the box. It also came with a CD with every track from these singles, a great bonus I quickly uploaded onto my itunes. I had mp3s of alot of these, but they weren't as high of quality as the CD is. It sounds like Taang may have remastered some of the tracks because they sound great.
A very nice booklet, with a couple pages dedicated to each release.
But let's be real, I really wanted this for the Choke trifecta. Negative FX, Last Rights and Slapshot. I love all of these bands and anything Choke has ever done (including Stars and Stripes). 9 out of 10 hardcore kids are going to say the NFX single is the Alpha dog in this pack, but to me Last Rights just can't be beat. I love Last Rights and I wish they released more material. I'm glad to finally have all these on vinyl, but I wish Taang would have done them all on different colors of vinyl. All copies on black vinyl. I would have loved a Negative FX on red, Lemonheads on yellow, Gang Green on green, you get the picture. Kind of a missed opportunity in my opinion.
#1405 out of 2000. I was also disappointed with the sheer amount pressed. A "limited" box set I think should not have had more than 1000 made. I would have preferred /500 copies. Then it would really feel special. Something tells me that with 2000 made I'll be seeing these floating around in local record stores for years.

Did you know Guinness is the worldwide drink of choice to celebrate Irish culture? I've been to the Guinness factory in Dublin and it was such an interesting and fun experience! These delicious moist Guinness Chocolate Brownies are the perfect way to celebrate St Patrick's Day (or any day you fancy a tasty chocolate brownie!) The addition of Guinness to the brownies intensifies the flavour and makes them super gooey and rich. I absolutely love Guiness in cakes and baking, my Chocolate Guiness Cake with Baileys Buttercream is my favourite cake ever!
I started making the Guinness Chocolate Brownies by melting dark chocolate, butter and Guinness in a pan on a low heat until glossy and smooth. I let the mixture cool slightly,
In a bowl I whisked together the eggs and light brown sugar.
Then I added the chocolate mixture to the egg mixture and whisked it together.
Finally I added the plain flour and baking powder and mixed it in. I poured the mixture into a baking tin and baked on 160C Fan/180C/350F/Gas Mark 4 for 30 minutes.
When the Guinness Chocolate Brownies were ready I left them to cool before slicing into squares.
The Guinness Chocolate Brownies are so incredibly moist and fudgey! And warning, they're rather addictive too!
I highly recommend eating these warm! They would be amazing with ice cream.

You may remember him from about a decade ago. He was the dude who got famous for scribbling on a whiteboard while racebaiting and yelling out conspiracy theories. I just looked for a clip, but there are so many Glenn Beck videos on youtube that I didn't have the patience to find a funny one.
Because I do find what happened oddly funny. And he lives in sort of a weird space that I find pretty absurd. He's not a lunatic like Sean Hannity–but really, who is?–and he can't fake his way into sounding like a serious thinker like Bill O'Reilly sometimes can. He's just this weird guy who scrolls through the internet and believes literally everything. Or at least that's how I imagine his life is.
Anyrate, right before the election, he sort of re-emerged on the political scene, getting interviews and talking points out with all kinds of outlets (another sign that should've illustrated to everyone how worthless US news media has become). The word for what he did is rebranding.
He was changing his image. He vocally stepped away from his own past. Basically repudiating his entire career, or at least trying to cast it in a new light. As a journey from fringe conspiracy theorist to a gentler, more empathetic political thinker.
Like every major media outlet, Glenn Beck was vocally against Donald Trump. This was only of interest to people who still cared about his opinion and to liberals who wanted to shine a light on him and say, EVEN THIS WACKO THINKS TRUMP'S GOING TOO FAR.
To me, it seemed clear that he was hoping to leverage his new gentle and empathetic persona into a job at MSNBC, which is among the most useless news networks around. But it would give him a big platform and audience to say things, and that's what typically matters to the pundit class. I mean, it's hard to be a pundit when there's no one watching your dumb face for an hour every day.
At the time, it seemed inconceivable that Trump would be president. I mean, even the day of the election, most media outlets were estimating that Clinton had somewhere between a 70% to 95% chance of winning.
We know how that turned out.
And why I find this funny is that Glenn Beck placed a bet on the future of his career. He saw a Clinton victory as inevitable and maybe a way for him to get back on television with his whiteboard where he could yell about conspiracies that Democrats would believe. He gambled on the Clintons and the DNC and he seriously lost.
So what is Glenn Beck to do now? This gentler, more sympathetic and empathetic man? We're in Trump's America now, where Breitbart is now State News, and white supremacists and militarists flood Trump's Whitehouse, along with some of the wealthiest people in the country who support policies like increasing mass surveillance (which has bipartisan support, by the way–something the Obama Administration just signed into law literally today) and a Muslim registry (which also has bipartisan support, which goes to show how worthless Democrats are–also, the Muslim registry has existed since maybe before 9/11, so it's not even a new idea, nor is using it to assassinate Muslims all over the world with drones [thanks, Obama]) and massive tax cuts for the wealthy, which will cripple the middle class and impoverished class (that impoverished class is now about 50% of the country).
I didn't mean to get political there, though. I just think this Glenn Beck situation is a really funny thing.
Glenn Beck sold himself down the river only to find his new brand as worthless as the old one. And maybe the funniest thing is that he could have risen to prominence on his old shtick, because if there's someone who loves a good old unverified conspiracy, it's our next president, Donald Trump.

|Palestine celebrate qualifying for China 2018
The result was clinched following Mahmoud Abu Warda's hat trick in a 3-0 victory over Bangladesh. A corner kick goal in the eighth minute set the stage and Abu Warda's magnificent chip in the 34th minute put the match beyond any reasonable doubt.
The real work happened over the first two games- after throwing away two valuable points in the opener versus Tajikistan, Al-Fida'i knew that only a win would do against group favorites Jordan.
The first thirty minutes of the match were nothing short of disastrous and Palestine were relatively lucky to have only conceded twice. A comeback was sparked by Hazem Abuhammad's free kick that ended up in the net despite the fact that the Taraji Wadi Al-Nes man never intended to put it there.
The second half did not really witness a massive shift in momentum but a brilliant piece of skill from Mahmoud Yousef and some quick thinking from Bahaa Wridat generated the equalizer and the winner.
Overall, Palestine's performance during the qualification phase can be described as scrappy at best. At halftime of the Jordan match, coach Ayman Sandouqa implored his charges to go out and win for Jerusalem and Al-Aqsa. The message worked, Palestine dug deep and found a way to roll with the punches Jordan was throwing at them.
Palestine should take heart in qualifying for this tournament. Larger more established nations missed out- Iran who produce talented players at an alarming rate missed out as did UAE. Saudi Arabia nabbed the last ticket on offer only because China unexpectedly beat Japan to win its qualifying group.
|Seeding for the 2018 AFC U23 Championship
The finals in January will be a completely different endeavor. For starters, Palestine will test their mettle against stronger opponents and the draw will most likely not be kind after the AFC decided to rank teams based on previous participations.
That said, qualifying for this tournament will have huge knock-on effects. For one, WBPL teams will be more inclined to rely on the youngsters that fared so well. That confidence has already manifested itself, with Balata signing defender Ahmad Zreiqi and Mahmoud Yousef signing for Shabab Al-Khaleel.
More minutes on the pitch will be essential for Palestine's youngsters to be competitive come January. Even if the finals tournament produces no victories, it will at least act as a breeding ground for players expected to make the jump to the senior side (Al-Ashhab, Dabbagh, and Abu Warda have been part of national team camps but have yet to actually play).

Since I have combination skin, I find it difficult to look for a face mask that targets my needs properly. I need something that would moisterise without being too greasy for my T-zone, but deep cleanse without drying out my cheeks. To solve this trivia, I've decided to use the 'face zoning' method.
|Left - Soap and Glory, Right - Origins
For my T-zone, I like to use Soap and Glory's The Fab Pore Facial Peel. It deep cleanses, unclogs pores, and leaves my skin feeling refreshed. As for the dry areas, I'm loving Origin's Drink Up 10 Minute Mask. It moisterises beautifully and leaves my skin soft and glowing.

Get the job done efficiently
The Mataway® Overseeder delivers seed straight to the curve-shaped discs, placing it directly into the soil slits for unmatched seed-to-soil contact. You can seed at variable rates for different grass varieties and applications. The seed flow rate is easily controlled right from the operator's station, and the flow stops automatically when the reel is raised for maximum control and precise operation.
