If you're taking a brief trip to the woods, a hammock is a perfect addition. They're lightweight, easy to pack, and comfortable for sleeping. Depending on your needs, hammocks can also be downright inexpensive, but they don't have to be.
These 11 hammocks will elevate your camping, lounging, and sleeping experience—at a variety of price points.
[Related: The Ultimate Camping Checklist]
ENO's DoubleNest and SingleNest hammocks are two widely popular choices that hit the sweet spot for many campers. They're durable and comfortable, and come with a pair of carabiners for easy setup and a compression sack for packing it down to a backpack-friendly size. You can also choose from a nearly endless range of color combinations, and add a pair of suspension straps for an extra $30.
There's a lot you have to contend with when you're outdoors, and mosquitos are one of them. But this Everest double hammock can combat these annoying pests with its built-in mosquito nets. Big enough for two but extra spacious for one, it's a multi-capable hammock that looks just as good in the sticks as it does in your backyard.
Another mosquito net-equipped hammock, the Hennessy Hammock Ultralite takes it a step further with an included rain tarp. Built for the tall among us (7ft) and supporting up to 250lbs, this is a single person hammock and one of the best ones you can buy.
Another popular choice for an all-purpose camping hammock, Kammok's Roo promises a bit more durability and extra 100 pounds capacity than the ENO DoubleNest, while still remaining lightweight and easy to pack. The hammock especially impressed Gear Patrol in their testing, and their reviewer found it to be incredibly easy to setup as well as "rugged and capable" in its construction.
100 percent nylon and built in the U.S., the Ultralight Single backs down into an incredible 4x4x2, can hold up to 300lbs, and weighs only 5.2oz. This makes the hammock perfect for small daily excursions or for serious hikers with no more room to spare in their packs.
If you're really looking to go all out and be prepared for any situation, you may want to consider a complete hammock sleep system like this one from ENO. It's available in a range of configurations with different hammocks, but all will give you both a bug net and a rain tarp, along with other key accessories.
As most campers know, sometimes the elements are not in your favor. If you're affinity for the outdoors can't be contained to just the summer months, then you'll need something like the Vulcan Underquilt. Rated for 35 degrees Fahrenheit when paired with an equal top quilt, the Vulcan will make sure you have a comfortable—and most importantly—warm slumber.
Camping hammocks don't get much more affordable than Grand Trunk Ultralight model, but it may be all you need to spend depending on your needs. While they note that it's not the most durable hammock, OutdoorGearLab recommends the hammock as a budget pick for anyone interested in trying out hammock camping, or even for experienced campers who are just looking for a inexpensive and lightweight option.
Wise Owl's hammocks are a consistent bestseller on Amazon and widely well-reviewed by customers who recommend it as a great, inexpensive option. At just $26, the SingleOwl is an ample 9 feet long and 4 1/2 ft wide, and weighs just 16 ounces, while the DoubleOwl adds a bit more space and not much more weight for an extra $10.
Both also include a pair of carabiners and set of nautical ropes, though a separate set of hammock straps may be a good investment if you want a quicker setup.
Another relatively inexpensive option, the Therm-a-Rest Slacker was singled out by Outside for its durability and small footprint, which they say make it ideal for backpacking or long day trips. As a bonus, the integrated pocket that packs the hammock can also double as a tablet or e-reader holder when the hammock is set up.
It's not cheap, but if you're looking for a hammock that'll hold up in a range of different conditions and keep you comfortable at the same time the Warbonnet Blackbird won't disappoint. It's been a repeat Editor's Choice pick by OutdoorGearLab, praising the hammock's "amazing design," which includes a bug net and a suspension system that promises easy setup and adjustments.

what happened your blog? why haven't you been posting? Amandine
my... blog? blog.... blog... hmmm i don't... oh crap, my ukulele blog!!! i totally forgot about my blog this eleven-and-a-half months. i hope nobody else noticed....
Well, back to answering your uke and other questions! (how come nobody ever asks me relationship or stock trading questions on here?)
Hey man, I played your version of Postcards on a Baritone Uke and it sounded pretty good. However, due to the tuning differences from that of a Soprano, it didn't sound completely right. Would this be played differently on a Baritone? Thanks, -Harry
Interesting. I haven't done much with baritone ukes, but my understanding is that they are generally tuned very differently than the standard GCEA concert and soprano ukes. Instead, they are usually tuned in G, which is DGBE.
This means you have two options:
- find out the proper chords for the baritone and play those instead. You may have some difficulty with the hammerons, and it will likely sound quite a bit different but be in the right key. http://www.ukulele.nl/chordfinder.php (click on baritone on the middle right side)
- (BEST OPTION) Get a capo and put it on the 5th fret of your baritone. It will now have the exact same tuning as a concert or soprano uke in C, and the chords as shown in the video will work exactly the same.
Please let me know how this goes! Getting a capo if you don't have one is a good idea anyway. Allows for some interesting sounds and easy key changes.
okay, so i got my ukulele today and i got it tuned up right and all, but while playing it goes out of tune, and im only playing for like 5-10 minutes tops. what can i do
Editor's note: Artist's rendition
Hi KING DONKEY,
if you look on the tuning pegs, there should be little screws on the top of each one. Tighten those a bit to keep the peg from slipping out of tune. You may need a smaller-than-normal screwdriver.
Also, the more you paly the more the uke will settle in and require less tuning. In the beginning the strings will need to stretch and settle a bit and the screws will need tightening, etc.
Also, even though the uke wood is sweet sweet delicious good, your pegs will stay tighter if you can keep your gums and maw off them.
Good luck!
I have a question...
I'm wondering if you know what chord this is. (if it is a chord)
I put in a picture of it but if for some reason you can't see it, the layout thing for it is this:
1st 3rd A |___|___|_x_| G C E A E |_x_|___|___| |__|__X__| first fret C |___|___|___| |__|__|__ | G |___|___|___| |__|__|__ X third fretEditor's Note: formatting worked over email, got destroyed in cut-and-paste to this blog.
I hope this is clear! Thank you!!
Step one is to click on the tuning you are using over on the right, so either of the C options (soprano C or tenor C). Then click the picture of the ukulele so the yellow dots are where you put your fingers for the chord. Underneath it will say which chords it is, and it isn't necessarily just one. There are so many different kinds of chords out there, a lot of times with only four notes to work with on a uke there will be a lot of overlap.
So your configuration (and you should enter it to test) shows that your chord is both a Csus4 and an Fsus2.
The sus (stands for suspended) chords are beautiful if you are playing them with the right other chords. They work well in place of the standard chord to add a bit of extra emotion and variety without sounding too out of place or changing the key. It may be worth looking into some of the theory if you are interested to learn more about it. Here are a few places with some more info, although some of it is annoyingly technical:
Congratulations for discovering it on your own, it's cool when what you think sounds interesting turns out to be backed up by music theory (or at least I think it's cool, which might not mean that much actually).
hey man i know you probably get this a million times especially since some dude apparently played this song on a ukulele on american idol or something but Beirut does a great cover of the song Hallelujah and i love it. ukehunt gave me the chords but the strumming is throwing me for a loop. im new to the ukulele had mine less than a month it was a birthday gift from my lady. im loving the hell out of it. and cant stop playing. ukehunt is a great sight but this site excited the hell out of me.to be honest. but the version as im sure you know is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cnmact0wxNs
i mean im sure you busy so im not asking for like a video really (unless you had the time ha!) but just some pointers on ow he plays/strums this bad boy. im sure he uses hammer ons oo but i can figure that out im sure once im strumming it even remotely lose to correct.
let me know. thanks a lot keep up the great work. love this all.
carry the fire,
I HAVE been getting a lot of requests for this song. I really should learn it I suppose.... but I haven't yet. When I do, I will definitely do a video for it and let you know.... it really is a beautiful song. Maybe too beautiful, I dont want to butcher it too bad.
btw, your lady sounds like a real find!
First of all..thanks for making such great tutorials. You are the best I've found in my many searches. I've learned a lot from you! I was wondering if you have or will you have a tutorial for Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen (Or Jeff Buckley) either the strumming or picking version.. Great song easy chords just the strumming and picking I have trouble with. Any tips on how to become better at strumming??
Thanks! -Rebecca
I don't know if I will be doing Hallelujah, but I have had it requested a few times (see above!) and if I can figure out how to play it I will put up a video...
My advice for strumming: just play every time you get a chance sitting around the house, and keep your left hand on one or two chords and just try to get as many different kinds of sound as you can with your right hand. Strum with one finger, or all your fingers... try to play it like a drum almost. The idea is to condition your hand to hit the strings without it feeling awkward. To remember what strumming was like when you first started, try switching sides and strumming with your left hand. This should feel extremely awkward, and it will serve to remind you how far you've come....
Also: I forgot to tell Rebecca when I emailed her back, but thank you for the kind words! I'm so glad to hear the tutorials have been useful for people... what it really means is that there are lots of people who share some love for good songs and good uking.
Hello there! I'm a Spanish boy, from Madrid, and I've just got to know Beirut's music thanks to a friend like 2 months ago. I like it so so much. As i was lookin for videos on outube i found yours and then thought bout buyin' an ukelele. My doubt, if you could please answer it, is this: which kind of ukelele does he play? is it a sopran, bariton... Thank you so much for it!
Hi Jonas,
I apologize for the delay in getting back to you, I was hoping to hear directly from the source about what Beirut used for his recordings but I haven't heard back from them (him?) yet.
I did however find this discussion on Ukulele Hunt about the ukes he uses in his videos and on the road:
Apparently they are (relatively) cheap, including one that he plays on stage (the Lanikai Tenor uke) that goes for just $99!
According to the Uke Hunt discussion, he uses all different sizes except the soprano. Tenor, baritone, and concert are all on that list. If I were you, I would stick to Tenor or Concert, because traditionally the tuning for the baritone uke (DGBE) is different than the tuning for standard ukes (GCEA), and Beirut tends to use standard uke tuning (or a close variation of it) in his songs.
I play a Concert uke, and feel like I get a very similar sound. I hope this has helped and is not too late to help with your purchase!
I hope this email finds you well. Thought you might get a kick out of a the brand new "Swine Flu" music video featuring my trusty ukulele :)
Swine Flu can be viewed through the following link:
Amelia www.myspace.com/ameliams
Not technically a question, but I'm going to allow this. Very cute song and video with high quality sound and production.
I checked out the site and she makes a lot of good songs and even has a service where she writes and records special songs for a special occasions. Very neat entrepreneurial idea. I wonder how much it costs... probably something you find out through the consultation.
Hello, I was wondering what kind of Ukulele you play in your videos. It has a beautiful sound.
This is probably the question I get asked the most over email and on my youtube channel. I should probably just post it on the main page, but I probably won't. Anyway, I have a Hamano Concert H-100C ukulele.
I will say I have been extremely happy with the purchase. I think it is a great investment to spend a bit more than usual on a solid instrument with a pretty tone. Buy something you can't wait to play!
I just started playing ukulele on my cheap, $13 instrument from a souvenir shop in Hawaii. Day 3 and your YouTube videos have taught me more than the cruddy book I bought to go with it ever did, including Beirut songs! (I've been playing trumpet for 9 years and have wanted to play Postcards from Italy since I first heard it)
Now, for the question at hand, I was wondering if you might ever do a tutorial video for "Sea of Love" by Cat Power?
Thanks a bunch!
whoa, cool. it took me so long to learn those songs i forget some people can actually do it in three days.....
I would LOVE to play Sea of Love and do a video for it. I haven't learned it yet though, but I think it would be a pretty great one to know. It's one of my favorite songs ever. Although I should say, the song I fell in love with the original by Phil Phillips.
When I wrote back to you, I was mixing this song up with another similar song I tried to learn. Basically when i told you it was very difficult I was way wrong: Sea of Love is not hard to play a basic version of. It is just four looping chords (G, B, C, A) played at a steady rhythm.
In terms of a strumming pattern, if I do a video for this one it will likely try to follow the Phil Phillips version's rhythm. I think Cat Power did a very pretty minimalist cover, but man, I love the original.
thanks for writing, reading, uking, loving good music
Hello there!:) Thank you for your blog. I have learned so much from you, you are a wonderful teacher. Up here in the cold north, it is really delightful to play on my most beautifull ukulele from Hawaii. It is indeed a wonderful uke. Anyways. I was clicking around on your site and saw a song you really, really wanted to learn: New Slang by The Shins. This is what I found out:
Tune: G-C-E-A Chords: Am/C, F/C, C, G, Am, F Am/C F/C C G Gold teeth and a curse for this town were all in my mouth. C Am G
Only, i don't know how they got out, dear. Am/C F/C C G
Turn me back into the pet that i was when we met. C Am G
I was happier then with no mind-set.
And if you'd 'a took to me like F G
A gull takes to the wind. C
Well, i'd 'a jumped from my tree F
And i'd a danced like the king of the eyesores
G And the rest of our lives would 'a fared well.
That's all, thank you for blogging and keep smiling.
Hugs from uke-chic, Norway
wow, this is really great, thank you for putting this together! I have been doing less on the site recently (partly so i can focus on making my own music), but i have always wanted to know how to play this song. it's such a beautiful one. big :)
Also: So I told Eir that I would try this out as soon as possible---- and now that I have had a chance..... WTF? This song is fucking impossible for me to learn for some reason. See, this is why there needs to be more tutorial videos out there. I try to play this right now and everything seems wrong, and I can't get the timing, and I don't know how to strum it right, and... and.... why doesn't someone put a video up for this one so I can learn it!?
Well, clearly there is more work to be done.
Peace! til next time.....

BOGOTA -- Colombian shingle Dynamo is structuring a new production fund that will finance up to a half-dozen feature films a year. Dynamo CEO Andres Calderon said the fund will front producers a 40 percent rebate on production services, providing the project qualifies for Colombia's recently established filming incentives, which aim to draw foreign shoots. Dynamo Capital, the producer's investment arm, will provide the money upfront and recoup the rebate after production wraps, allowing producers more cash flow during the production phase. Bogota-based Dynamo has financed and co-produced such films as Sundance audience award-winner Undertow, and it recently produced Out of the Dark with Participant Media, a thriller starring Julia Stiles and Scott Speedman. Out of the Dark is Dynamo's first English-language pic. Production begins in August on El Elefante Desaparecido, a psychological thriller from Undertow director Javier Fuentes-Leon. Additionally, Dynamo is producing four documentaries this year for the Discovery Channel. FACEBOOK TWITTER EMAIL ME John Hecht email@example.com @john_hecht

- peonytuliplove
- 6 years ago
- Wedding: September 2016 - State Park
My mom died exactly 6 months ago. I was incredibly incredibly close to her. She was going to be the one to walk me down the aisle. Her and I dreamed about my wedding day since I was a little girl. She raised me single handedly, and was my absolute best friend. She really was my everything.
When my Fiance proposed 3 months ago I cried like a baby afterwards. Because I wasn't able to call my mom and celebrate. She wasn't here for the special moment and it broke my heart. A happy moment turned into a very emotional and heart wrenching moment.
I am blessed by an amazing Fiance who understands how important she was to me. Although his family doesn't get it, and I haven't been able to really bond with them.
I'm just not excited for the wedding. Don't get me wrong I absolutely want to get married. But we've been asked about a date, and I just can't bring myself to set one (my Fiance is once again being patient and doesn't want me to rush it). It's like all my wedding dreams died with my mom. It simply won't be the same. I can't imagine dress shopping. I can't imagine planning. I can't imagine walking down the aisle.
My Fiance and I have talked about eloping. Going away for a week just us, but I don't want his family to miss out on the celebration just because of my heartbreak. He would be willing to elope for me, but doesn't want me to have regrets and would prefer to have at least his immediate family there.
Sorry ladies, I just needed to get it off my chest. Any advice?

Performing in collaboration with other musicians is one of the most joyous activities of the accomplished pianist. We encourage our students to collaborate as much as possible with our instrumental and vocal students and teachers or with musicians outside of DSA. Advanced students are required to collaborate with our large ensemble groups or to perform in chamber ensembles.
An accompanying or ensemble performance is required of every student in the piano department each semester at Denver School of the Arts. This performance will serve as 10% of the final grade. Our students are required to contact students and teachers from other majors to offer their services as accompanists.
The accompanying or ensemble requirement can be met in several ways:
1. The student may perform with our choirs as an accompanist. (usually HS only)
2. The student may perform with the band or orchestra as a jazz performer or pianist. (usually HS only)
3. The student may perform with instrumentalists or vocalists from other majors. (HS and MS)
4. The student may perform in duets or ensembles with each other in the piano classroom. (HS and MS)
5. The student may perform with theater or dance majors. (HS and MS)
6. The student may perform in chamber ensembles. (HS and MS)
Students must discuss in advance with Mr. Lassen the suitability of accompaniment pieces to ensure that they will fulfill the accompanying requirement
Accompanying for DSA Juniors and Seniors
Once each year, Juniors and Seniors are required to perform with one of DSA's large groups to meet the accompanying requirement. Please be aware that there will be additional evening performances and rehearsals included to fulfill this requirement. Students who perform on the piano or on other keyboards for the all-school musical will earn a full year's ensemble credit.
Students must contact Mr. Durfee, Mr. Shively, Mr. Styron, Mr. Hammond, Dr. Lasansky, Mr. Becker, or Mr. Serianni to fulfill this requirement.

"I co-opt in my Músed," reads NYC brand's fall '16 fashion film, openly appropriating Calvin Klein's campaign as a way to highlight designer Lindsay Jones' rebellious attitude. Directed by AKLO, the Músed film declares what they stand for in today's noisy fashion industry—a brand that's one-part high fashion and one-part anti-elitist underdog.
"We're not going to wait around for anybody's permission," AKLO said of the film's message. "We're coming for the throne; we're here to usurp the kings and queens; we're quite literally here to slay."
Staged inside the Metropolitan Museum of Art, where Músed's cast filmed guerilla-style, the brand defines beauty for itself surrounded by the MET's walls of work that history has deemed beautiful.
"I try to look to beauty that speaks to me," Jones said. "I was modeling at 14 and literally raised in the fashion industry. I have known and seen so many things I felt were not right—the lack of inclusivity, [for one]. Beauty is inclusive and transcends a lot of the ideals the industry has been selling us forever. I've had people tell me to book only models from agencies to fit my demographic. I've had a major PR company that was interested in me just walk away after they saw my casting direction."
For fall '16, Jones said she designed the collection to find a balance between elegance and edge, much like the film's cast against the conservative MET environment: "I am drawn to elegant long lines and luxe fabrics," she said. "I like to give it an edge, so you can still feel cool [and] rebellious while wearing a silk robe to the MET, for example."
Watch the BULLETT premiere, below, as Richie Shazam, Daniela Czenstochowski and Eloisa Santos become one with the neoclassical sculptures and make love to the Caravaggio's, all with the mission "to sin, to pray, to worship, to slay."

One of the most common places to witness this behavior is in the workplace. Adult perpetrators typically bully in order to display their power, humiliate, and isolate their victims. People experiencing this type of bullying often feel powerless to stop it and have a hard time speaking out against it. Here are some ways to address and cope with bullying in the workplace:
Document everything. Keep an account of instances where you've felt bullied. This helps differentiate between isolated incidents and bullying behavior. Your co-worker having one bad day and being snippy towards you is different from your co-worker disrespecting you on a consistent basis. Documenting, also helps to keep your experiences concise in the event that you have to discuss them with a higher authority in your company.
Ignore. Bullies often feed off of power. If you refuse to lend the bully any power, there is a chance the bullying could stop.
Civilly approach offender. If ignoring doesn't work and you feel safe, attempt to meet with your bully to discuss your perspective on the situation. They may not realize that their behaviors are making you uncomfortable.
Meet higher-ups. If you're conversation with your offender did not yield positive results or you never felt safe engaging with them; now is the time to schedule a meeting with an authority figure.
Open up. It is important to realize that bullying is a stressful ordeal, one which can lead to many psychological issues. It is imperative for you to speak with someone about your experiences with it whether you are presently going through the situation or feeling latent effects. The therapists here at Philadelphia MFT are more than qualified to help you process through these feelings. Do not hesitate to contact us.

ODE/PDE α-synuclein Models for Parkinson's Disease
1st Edition
Secure CheckoutPersonal information is secured with SSL technology.
Free ShippingFree global shipping
No minimum order.
ODE/PDE Alpha-Synuclein Models for Parkinson's Disease discusses a mechanism for the evolution of Parkinson's Disease (PD) based on the dynamics of the protein α-synuclein, a monomer that has been implicated in this disease. Specifically, α-synuclein morphs and aggregates into a polymer that can interfere with functioning neurons and lead to neurodegenerative pathology. This book first demonstrates computer-based implementation of a prototype ODE/PDE model for the dynamics of the α-synuclein monomer and polymer, and then details the methodology for the numerical integration of ODE/PDE systems which can be applied to computer-based analyses of alternative models based on the reader's interest.
This book facilitates immediate computer use for research without the necessity to first learn the basic concepts of numerical analysis for ODE/PDEs and programming algorithms
Key Features
- Includes PDE routines based on the method of lines (MOL) for computer-based implementation of ODE/PDE models
- Offers transportable computer source codes for readers, with line-by-line code descriptions relating to the mathematical model and algorithms
- Authored by a leading researcher and educator in ODE/PDE models
Biomedical engineers, researchers, and clinicians in biology, neuroscience, biophysics, biochemistry, and applied mathematics

This week I held a presentation on Dividend Growth Investment at the Norwegian School of Economics (NHH). Since I know many of my readers are still at the beginning of their investment career, I'd like to share my slides with you guys!
So I've been investing since around 2010. Like many others, I struggled a bit finding my way at first, switching between trading, speculation, long-term investment that turns to speculating, index which turns into speculating and so on. It took about 4-5 years before I understood that dividend investing was my thing, and even further a year before I understood that I wanted to do the "Dividend Growth Strategy"
I've been fortunate to get more and more readers. Something that I highly believe in is that quality matters. This is why you don't see me writing a blog post every day, or maybe not even every week. If I don't feel that I have something to say, I don't.
Mark Twain has a pretty cool quote about this:
"It's better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than open it and remove all doubt"
Compound Interest
As dividend Growth Investors, it's essential that you understand the effect of compound interest. If you don't, there is no way to stay long term and you will fail at holding your companies for a long time.
What I like to do is to try to think like a business owner. What this means is that there isn't necessarily a strong correlation (=1 or close) to how the stock price move and how the company is doing. In the long-term, the stock price should follow the company, but in the short-term, this doesn't have to be the case.
Real Effect of Compound Interest
The slide above is an illustration of Warren Buffet's net worth and you can see that in the beginning, it barely moved. Most of his fortune is made in his 70's and 80's. Of course, some might say that "what's the point of having so much money when you're old?". Yes, I get that. The point of this illustration is to show you the effect of compound interest. It's up to you to choose how you want to spend your money and at what time to do so.
Dividend Growth
What this table shows it the effect of CAGR (compounded annual growth rate). If you start off by about $850 in annual income, and you hold that for income for 10 years while getting a 10% CAGR, you will get $2292 in annual income. Pretty nice right?
The Importance of Using Total Return
I've stressed this before, but I will do this again. As dividend investors, we should focus on total return and not just price return. Why? Well, in reality, you can have a stock that has no change in price in a whole year, giving 0% price return. But, when using total return, you see that you have actually earned 5%, not 0%. I would suggest that you find a way to track your total return ASAP.
Dividend Growth Stock vs High Yield Stock
The slide above shows us the difference between a high yield stock and a DGI stock. HRL is a very nice DGI stock but has a pretty low yield. SO, on the other hand, has a pretty high yield but low growth. We can see that in year 15, the compounded returns are even. We also notice that after year 15, HRL really takes off and the returns are amazing. By comparing SO and HRL we see that 30 years in, HRL has returned 1000 % more than SO.
However, the numbers presented are very unsure because we are talking 30 years ahead and a lot can happen then. Having 15% CAGR for 30 years would be amazing, but who knows? The point is that you can see the effect of DGI.
People often ask me how I find stocks, so I thought I should share some thoughts. First, most of the companies that I'm interested in are presented in my Watchlist World
Also, these are some of the criteria that I use. (I do more, and I also try to calculate a fair value based on different valuation methods, but this is my framework)
About the MOATs
- Brand
- Apple can charge 15% higher prices than their peers because of a strong Brand MOAT
- Switching Costs
- If you run a company, changing the software from Excel or Word to something else would be so bothersome that you just keep the same software.
- Establishing Costs
- Say you want to enter the Norwegian food market. Competing against the big chains is very tough, and most likely, you will fail due to higher marginal cost.
As most of you know, I love REITs. If you don't know what a REIT is, I suggest you read my post about REITs here.
Every presentation about stocks should include some kind of recommendation. You should know about these companies, but don't read this as a buy rec. It's just information about two great companies.
Now that you have an idea about my strategy, it's time to figure out my goals for my investments. It's not just about money! It's about Financial Independence

Getting it partly right on weather vs. climate
By Michael Fumento
Eugene Robinson in today's Washington Post protests that global warming skeptics are using the current (though very long) cold snap in the mid-Atlantic region, which encompasses the nation's capital, to confuse weather - a short-term phenomenon - with climate.
Robinson, who last year won the Pulitzer Prize for commentary, correctly notes that, "the Earth is really, really big. It's so big that it can be cold here and warm elsewhere - and this is the key concept - at the same time. Even if it were unusually cold throughout the continental United States, that still represents less than 2 percent of the Earth's surface."
True enough. And he adds:
Those who want to use our harsh winter to 'disprove' the theory that the planet's atmosphere is warming should realize that anecdotal evidence always cuts both ways. Before the Winter Olympics in Vancouver, crews were using earth-movers and aircraft to deposit snow on the ski runs - the winter had been unusually warm. Preliminary data from climate scientists indicate that January, in terms of global temperatures, was actually hotter than usual. Revelers participating in Rio de Janeiro's annual carnival, which ended Tuesday, sweltered in atypical heat, with temperatures above 100 degrees. Fortunately, the custom during carnival is not to wear much in the way of clothing.
Again, true enough. And regrettably I once again missed going to the Rio Carnival, but hope springs eternal.
But here's what he doesn't say. His people have long played exactly the same game.
There's a wonderful website that keep a more or less comprehensive list of all the things that warmists have attributed to "global climate change" - and mind you, the very term "global climate change' was coined precisely to be able to tie any change, including things associated with cooling - to the effects of greenhouse gases. One glance at the site blows you away. I want you to click on this link right now and not continue with this blog until you have.
No. Stop. You didn't click on the link. Do it now.
Okay, the point is made, isn't it? It includes everything from "acne" to "yellow fever" with "short-nosed dogs endangered" in between. And there are lots of instances of weather change.
In fact, time and again cold weather and its fall-out, including blizzards, have been attributed to "global climate change."
This is from an article of mine that appeared 13 years ago:
But there it was, the cover of the Jan. 22 Newsweek: "Blizzards, floods & hurricanes: Blame global warming." There also was the New York Times front-page article by William K. Stevens headlined "Blame global warming for the blizzard" and a nationally syndicated article by environmentalist Jessica Matthews that ran under titles such as "Brrr, global warming brings our blizzard."
Moreover, I note. Moreover, I say for emphasis, while this was a perfect opportunity for Robinson to show he was playing fair, he could have pointed out they're doing it even now.
Moreover, Robinson could have seen it in his own newspaper from just days ago.
There it was, right in the headline of a column by uber-environmentalist Bill McKibben, "Washington's Snowstorms, Brought to You by Global Warming."
Time magazine also argues "climate change could in fact make such massive snowstorms more common, even as the world continues to warm."
And of course I could go on and on, but point made.
If you live in the mid-Atlantic, don't go out without a coat. But hypocrisy is a mantle never worn well.

NASSAU – Minister of Health Dr Duane Sands suggested yesterday additional bombshell arrests may be on the horizon once police are able to gather evidence on the myriad of allegations brought to officials.
"I think the public will find that there will be a number of individuals who will be brought before the courts if the information that has been brought to us, in the opinion and findings of the commissioner of police, prove to warrant pressing charges," Dr Sands told The Tribune.
Some senior members in the Royal Bahamas Police Force have also said "stay tuned" as more bombshells are expected.
Meanwhile, National Security Minister Marvin Dames dismissed assertions from the PLP of a government-led witch hunt against members of the former Christie administration. Mr Dames said the claims are a distraction and he won't pay attention to them.
"Political witch hunt? I don't wish to get into those types of conversations," he said yesterday.
His comment came not long after Official Opposition leader Philip "Brave" Davis released an audio of himself criticising the context in which the new administration is seeking to hold officials of the previous administration criminally liable, one that follows pronouncements from the FNM on the campaign trail in which Bahamians were encouraged to expect "corrupt" politicians to be held accountable before the courts.
The PLP, which is seeking to recover from its historic general election loss in May and has been conducting assessments concerning this, is now devoting some of its attention toward warding off what could be a number of serious legal challenges. The Tribune understands Davis, the PLP's leader, may call a special emergency council meeting next week to brainstorm and discuss ways of dealing with the matters. Meanwhile, the PLP is assembling a legal team.
Former State Minister for Legal Affairs Damian Gomez, a member of that team, said yesterday: "We regard this essentially as political posturing and a witch hunt. We're all committed. We have a team of lawyers to help and then there are going to be specific people addressing the cases."
For his part, Dames said: "We said it all along on the campaign trail that part of our government's mandate was to deal decisively and aggressively with corruption throughout the country and this should not come as a surprise to anyone. We committed to it; our prime minister committed to it and we determined to use those agencies of government with the responsibility for investigating crimes and in this case, we're referring to crimes where there are anti-corruption related matters and we will allow the police to do their jobs unimpeded. We will continue to press on.
"Nothing has changed," Dames said about concerns of a witch hunt. "When a matter is opened or is being investigated by the police force, the police has a responsibility to look for evidence and wherever they find evidence then they should do what comes next, which is bringing charges against those that may be implicated and you letting the courts take over from there.
"We're all about doing the job of the people," he said. "We committed that while on the campaign trail; we're determined. We will not be deterred and we will continue to press on. "This is what the people expect and this is what good governance ought to be about. Wherever it is found that public officials, while in office, are committing crimes, then they ought to be held responsible no matter where they sit or who they are connected to. That doesn't come before us. It ought not come before us. If we could go on the streets and pick up the young kid on the block for a joint and charge him without any public fanfare, why can't we do it anywhere else? I'm perplexed by the fact that people feel this is something that cannot happen. There are laws on the books and whenever there are laws on the books those responsible for carrying out the laws ought to do their jobs. It's as simple as that."
Mr Dames revealed that the administration considered establishing a Commission of Inquiry to investigate matters of abuse in public office and other possible crimes. However, he said, he believes such action would have ultimately proved fruitless since it would not hold officials accountable.
"There were a lot of people who were suggesting different pathways to investigating stuff like [corruption]," he said. "One was a Commission of Inquiry. I'm not a big fan of commissions of inquiries because I personally think they are a waste of money. They produce good sideshows, but that's the most. At the end of the day what do you have, a lot of interesting stories that will give you guys a bunch of news and headlines, but at the end of the day there's no accountability. We said as a government that we have laws on the books that can address issues where public figures go awry of the law. We suggested and recommended that the police be allowed do their work. Very shortly though we will be coming with legislation that will cause an autonomous anti-corruption agency to be established. While we wait the introduction of such a Bill, we felt strongly that we have laws that could deal with these issues in the interim."

When And How To Overseed A Lawn
September 10, 2014
Fall is the best time to overseed with cool season turf varieties. Overseeding can significantly improve a lawn's appearance and enhance its ability to fight insects and diseases, but it's important to recognize that the term "overseeding" actually describes 2 different cultural practices:
1. Overseeding thin lawns. Also referred to as "interseeding". This is the process of adding more seed to existing turf to fill in bare or thin areas.
2. Winter overseeding of Bermudagrass or other warm-season lawns. This is the process of seeding with a different "winter" grass (usually Perennial Ryegrass), to provide temporary cover over dormant turf. It is more common in inland desert areas.
In this article, we'll look at the proper steps involved in both practices.
How to Overseed an Existing Thin Lawn
When the existing turf is thin or bare, applying new seed within the proper growing windows can make a big difference in the turf's appearance. You'll want to seed when several weeks of good growing conditions will follow. For cool-season lawns such as Tall Fescue, September through October is ideal, and early to mid-spring is also acceptable.
Follow These 7 Steps When Overseeding a Thin Lawn:
1. Aerate the turf before overseeding.
2. Mow the grass lower than usual, but DO NOT SCALP IT. You are only trying to open up the turf canopy.
3. Remove clippings to help the seed reach the soil.
4. Add new topsoil to low-lying bare spots or over visible tree roots.
5. Broadcast the seed or work it into the soil.
6. New seeds need Phosphorus (the middle number in NPK Formulations) to promote root growth and establishment. Apply a fertilizer high in Phosphorus like TurfGro 6-20-10 ProStarter Fertilizer.
7. Lightly cover seed with 1/8–1/4 inch of fine mulch or seed topper to maintain moisture and warmth, and protect the seed from birds.
Winter Overseeding
Overseeding a "winter" grass into a warm-season lawn like bermudagrass can be a challenge. The key is to effectively slow down your warm season turf so that it's not competing with the new winter grass (usually Perennial Ryegrass) that you're trying to establish. This is done by overseeding once nighttime temperatures are around 65 degrees or lower, and by cutting back on fertilization and watering prior to overseeding.
Before Overseeding:
1. Perform your last aggressive dethatching of warm-season turf 6 weeks before the overseed date.
2. Stop all nitrogen fertilization 4 weeks before.
3. Stop mowing 10 days before.
4. Decrease water by 50% 1 week before.
5. Drop mowing height by 1/3 3 to 4 days before.
Day of Overseeding:
6. Drop mowing height by 1/3 again.
7. Remove clippings to open the turf canopy to the soil.
8. Broadcast the seed at the proper application rade. Overseeding of bermuda generally requires 10-14 lbs per 1000 sq ft.
9. New seeds need Phosphorus (the middle number in NPK Formulations) to promote root growth and establishment. Apply a fertilizer high in phosphorus like TurfGro 6-20-10 ProStarter Fertilizer.
10. Lightly cover the seed with 1/8-1/4 inch of fine mulch or seed topper.

It's after midnight at Chez Williams. The house is quiet. Those I love are sound asleep. I sit in my favorite chair up to my neck in wooly blanket. I am stalling because I don't want to write my October blog. You might be surprised to know that I procrastinate not out of laziness or because I lack a topic. I know exactly what I need to write about this month. The reason I am not writing it is because the subject in question creeps me out. Let me explain….
Whenever anything goes bump in the night, I've been known to lock myself in the closet with a flashlight and a frying pan. Once when the hub and I ventured out to the movie theater, I wasn't informed until just before previews that we would be seeing a horror film. Subsequently, I spent an entire movie with my head burrowed underneath his leather jacket and my ears plugged. For the past two years, we've set up a scarecrow in the front yard during the fall season. Every day, at least once a day, I walk by the front windows of the house, see the scarecrow standing in the middle of the yard and jump out of my skin because for a split second (or two) some part of my spastic brain is convinced it's a real person clad in overalls and a straw hat standing in my yard.
Those chicken feathers on the floor? I'll be the first to admit they're mine. Why do I spook so easily? Maybe because I've seen a thing or two on the ghostly side of things.
I live deep in the south. Ghost sightings seem to be as commonplace here as those terrible blockbuster paranormal/horror films that hit the big screen a handful of times a year. Once I heard someone, a northern woman who had come south for retirement with her husband and remained, comment that this is because of the brutality of southern history. I'm inclined to agree. The only book I remember checking out of my intermediate school library was called 13 Alabama Ghosts by Kathryn Tucker Windham and Margaret Gillis Figh. The tales of kid Jeffrey and the Red Lady at Huntington College… *shivers* It's enough to make a preteen girl never want to leave the house again.From the time I was ten to eighteen when I moved away from my parents' house, my sister and I would occasionally hear strange noises there. I vividly remember lying awake in the dark and hearing footsteps in the attic overhead at night. My parents tried to convince me it was some sort of animal. I smartly replied, "Do animals wear HIGH HEELS?" My father began to work from home from time to time during this period. With my sister and me at school during the day and the house quiet around him, he began to hear strange things, too. He's a practical man, one could even say a cynic, so for him to admit that perhaps there was a presence of some sort lurking about added some credibility to our adolescent claims. His theory was given a great, big push when he saw the fur on the back of the family dog's back stand on end while they were both investigating said noises. The presence thankfully turned out to be benevolent. We all started to refer to her fondly as "Myrtle." I'm happy to report that Myrtle never really did anything to truly frighten anyone…unless you count the time my sister's new boyfriend was walking by the refrigerator and several frozen chunks shot out of the ice maker and ricocheted off his pant leg. We couldn't have planned a better family initiation for the guy if we tried….
One October early in my marriage, I was sitting up late into the night hours writing in the makeshift office the hub had fashioned for me in our first love nest. I heard a scratch on the front door. The sound of this scratch was so commonplace for me to hear by this point that I mindlessly rose from my swivel chair, crossed the hall into the entryway and opened the front door…to nothing but still, grass-scented air. It was then I remembered that the scratching in question belonged to my husband's beloved black lab, Rocky. For nine years, it was the dog's signal that he was ready to come inside for the night. Only…at that point, Rocky had been dead for three months. I could see the slight rise in the ground where he had been buried in mid-August from the porch where I stood. I slowly closed the door and locked it before switching on the porch light and hot-footing it to the back of the house where I climbed into bed with the hub and our other doggies.
More recently, we took our son to see Minions at a nearby theater. We had heard several people who had worked at this theater throughout the years remark that it was most definitely haunted. Normally when we go to see movies, it's amongst crowds of people so if we were ever privy to something eerie, we were too distracted to notice. However, this particular time I had to get up in the middle of the movie to take our newborn baby girl down to the aisle. She had woken up during one of the noisy action sequences. After feeding her, I knew she wouldn't settle. She likes to be held high on the shoulder so she can look around and feel tall like everybody else. I walked down to the aisle where I could hold her, sing to her and bounce while keeping an eye on the movie (which I found highly entertaining despite my marked adultness) as well as on my son several rows up to ensure he wasn't snagging too much popcorn from the hub's bucket. Ten minutes later, I got a strange feeling. Have you ever known somebody was in the room with you before you hear them and turn around to face them? Well, I got THAT feeling. Only when I turned to face them, moving back against the wall to let them pass, there was no one there. What I did see were the shadows in the narrow passage leading to the exit door shifting slowly back into place. My insides froze over and my knees locked into place. My flight reflex kicked in at that moment. I snatched myself out of my fearful reverie and bolted. I didn't get to see Stuart's psychedelic guitar solo at the end of the movie. After the credits, the hub, popcorn-laden toddler in tow, found me and Baby-Cakes standing outside the ticket office soaking in a bright, warm beam of sunshine. It'll be a while before I see another movie again.There. I've done it. I've revisited all the creep-tastic moments through the years that will certainly keep me awake through the rest of the night, jumping at small noises. Thank goodness we'll be gaining another sleep hour Saturday night so perhaps I can catch up. Now it's your turn, readers. In the spirit of Samhain, feel free to tell a few of your own ghost stories!
I'll leave you with a favorite sequence from my October Superromance novel from last year, Married One Night, in which the hero, Gerald, took the heroine, Olivia, to her grandparents' abandoned pecan orchard in the country and things got a little spooky. Happy Halloween!
"Don't move!"
Gerald stopped short, his heart banging against his chest. Looking up from his feet, he saw the giant, neon spider inches away from his face and stumbled back, arms milling. "Jesus H. Christ! What the bollocks is that?"
"Banana spider," Olivia noted, laying a hand on his shoulder to balance him. "Big one."
"Mother of God," he muttered, lips numbing as he watched the spider's spindly legs skitter up a length of its web.
"Calm down, she won't hurt you," Olivia told him. "But let's not mess up her web. It's pretty."
He stared, aghast, at his wife and the spider in turn as the former took his hand and led him away.
"You all right?" she asked.
Gerald swiped his hand over the top of his head. "Feel all spidery—like it's on me."
She pressed her lips to hide a smile. It didn't work. "Afraid of spiders much?"
"Only when it comes down to giant, mutant spiders the size of my godforsaken fist. That thing should be in a laboratory somewhere."
"They're pretty common around here. Particularly in wooded areas."
"Forget what I said about living in the country. Christ." Seeing an oak tree ahead, Gerald tugged on her hand. There was a tire swing attached to one of the high, thick, knotted arms. "What's this?" he asked as he spied something carved into the trunk. It was a large heart with the initials O and W twined in the middle. "Who do the initials stand for?" he asked.
"Olivia and Ward," she told him. "My grandparents. They must have carved it sometime in the `50s when they first bought the place."
"I thought your grandmother's name was Birdie."
"That's what everyone called her. She was smallish—she had bird bones so she was always cold come winter. Her mama nicknamed her Birdie. It stuck."
"You were named for her."
She nodded. "Olivia Rose. Olivia for Birdie, Rose for my mother."
"Olivia Rose," Gerald said. Looking her over, he beamed. There could be no other name for her. He wanted to hold her here on her family's land, underneath the limbs of the tree the grandparents she had loved so much had carved their initials into. "Come here, Olivia Rose," he said as he drew her into his arms.
She leaned back in his embrace with a wary sigh. "I don't see Rex. There's a creek just up the way. There might be cottonmouths—"
"You can tell me what a cottonmouth is later," he said, banding his arms doubly around her waist, so their navels pressed together. The scent of vanilla drew him. He lowered his lips to nibble the spot below her ear and indulged himself as he hadn't been able to before, either from her resistance or his own. "If it's anything like a banana spider, though, you might have to spare me," he murmured against the warmth of her skin.
"A cottonmouth's a snake. The bad kind."
"Is there a good kind?"
Olivia snorted, but sounded a bit breathless nonetheless. "You're right about one thing. You'd be hopeless living in the country."
Gerald turned his attention to the space of her shoulder, revealed by the widenecked cowl sweater she had chosen to wear. "Hold still, love," he said in a soft, low voice, "and put your arms around me."
"No, hold me," he insisted. "I'm still shaken from the near-miss with the mutant."
It made her laugh.
No sooner had he kissed her than the wind picked up and swept through the grove. The limbs of the tree above creaked. The leaves that littered the ground around them stirred into a makeshift tornado.
The tire swing swayed back and forth.
"Blimey," Gerald said, lifting his chin to the top of her head as he watched the spectacle. "It's like someone's trying to tell us something."
Olivia frowned at the branches tossing around above them. "Or knock us over."
On the wind came the strong smell of wood smoke. "Do you smell that?"
Olivia lifted her nose to the air and he watched her brows lift in surprise. "Smells like…cigars. And lavender." A shiver went through her.
Gerald tightened his arms around her.
"Yeah." She hunched further into his embrace. "Just…weird feeling, is all."
"Bad?" he asked, raising a questioning brow.
She shook her head but said nothing more.
He held her closer, spreading his arms over her back as he turned his face into her hair. The wind lifted high for a moment before everything began to settle gradually back down to earth.
She breathed a sigh. He felt it move through her more than heard it. "I'm glad that's over."
The skin around her mouth looked a touch white. Framing her face in his hands, Gerald tipped her chin up until her eyes met his. "Are you sure you're all right?"
"I'm fine. It's just…for a moment, I thought I heard…something."
"What was it?" he asked, rubbing his hands down the length of her spine in hopes of soothing the unsettled look in her eyes, the stiff rise of her shoulders.
Olivia opened her mouth to answer. Nothing escaped.

After an extended hiatus, the NBC drama series Revolution is back with more action, heightened emotion and even higher stakes. At its heart, the story is about a family (both blood and otherwise) struggling to stay together in an American landscape where every single piece of technology – computers, planes, cars, phones and even lights – has mysteriously blacked out forever, or so they thought. Having harnessed the power of the pendant, militia leader Monroe (David Lyons) sets out to obliterate the Rebels, and if they don't do something fast, they won't stand a chance. From executive producers Eric Kripke, J.J. Abrams, Bryan Burk and Jon Favreau, the show also stars Billy Burke, Tracy Spiridakos, Giancarlo Esposito, Elizabeth Mitchell, Zak Orth, JD Pardo, Daniella Alonso and Tim Guinee.
While at WonderCon, co-executive producer/writer David Rambo spoke at a roundtable about how things will be getting more intense as the show moves toward the season finale, that there will be another face-to-face with Miles (Burke) and Monroe (Lyons), that the Neville family will be very challenged, the reasoning behind the recent death of a character, the character he most identifies with, that he's under strict orders not to talk about the meaning and purpose of the mysterious capsule, how answers will lead to new questions, and how Georgia and California will play into things. Check out what he had to say after the jump.
Question: What can you say about these last episodes of the season?
DAVID RAMBO: They get better and better. I don't like spoilers. I can tell you that. I can tease you, but I can't give you spoilers. I can tell you that it does become more epic. It gets both bigger and it gets smaller. It gets bigger, in terms of scope, action, battles and things like that. But, it gets more intense and smaller, in terms of what the family interactions are. And by family, I don't mean just the Mathesons. Miles and Monroe are a kind of family. There's a lot of intensity between them, coming up. There is another face-to-face encounter with the two of them, and it doesn't go the way anyone will expect it will. And the Neville family is going to find that they're really challenged. Their relationships are going to start changing.
The momentum of the last several of episodes just keeps raising the bar and each episode has been getting more intense. Does that go all the way through to the finale, or is there a little bit of a rest or a breather?
RAMBO: There is no breather. Each one notches up. I'm so glad you mentioned that, too, because we really tried to make that happen, and it's very hard to do. This is a very hard show to write. I think we've done it. Time will tell. I know I look forward to every episode more than the last, once we start to talk about the story. There are no limit to stories we can tell in this world. We get in the room, every day, and say, "What if?" It's a great, "What if?," show.
You spent 10 episodes trying to rescue Danny, and then you immediately killed him off, before the audience could even become attached to him. What was the purpose of killing him off, before the audience could even get to know him?
RAMBO: The purpose was that we wanted to raise the stakes, in the second half of the season. We wanted the fight against Monroe to become much more personal than it already was for all of what we call our heroes, like Miles and Charlie and the people around them. We talked about a lot of different ways to do that, and the one that seemed to have the biggest bang for the buck, in that moment, was to kill Danny and remind the audience that this is a very, very unsafe world. This is a world where you can die, if you step on a nail. There are militias out there, there are rebels, and there is a guy who has helicopters and machine guns. No one is safe. It was shocking.
Is there a character that you identify with most, as one of the writers?
RAMBO: There is a character that we have coming in Monday's episode, who is a librarian. I love the idea that, in this world, there are books that haven't been burned for fuel yet and someone put them together. Since I am the son and the grandson of librarians, I love seeing librarians in this world. That is a character we are going to spend a little time with.
Is that a nod to The Twilight Zone episode?
RAMBO: It certainly is a nod to The Twilight Zone. The character even has the same name, Henry Bemis. But, his glasses are not broken. He's too bad-ass for that.
What can you say about the capsule that was removed from Danny's body?
RAMBO: Oh, no! I can't tell you anything. That is the one thing that I am under strict orders not to talk about. I wish I could!
Do questions get answered by the finale, and how many more will emerge to take the place of the ones that get answered?
RAMBO: We ask more questions than we answer. We will answer a lot of the big questions, and all of those answers will lead to more questions.
How much of the answers did you have from the beginning, and how much emerged on the journey?
RAMBO: I can tell you that we didn't know any of it. I don't even think (show creator) Eric Kripke knew. He's one of the great poker players of plot. He does not show all of his cards for what he's thinking of until he hears what everybody else is thinking 'cause if there's a better idea, he's going to run with it. But, we came in with some big ideas about, "Hey, we could try this or we try that," but it was not mapped out.
What about the trip to California? Is that going to happen this season?
RAMBO: I think we are saving a real exploration of California for the future, but we reference California in a couple of the upcoming episodes.
What can you say about Georgia having power?
RAMBO: Georgia is not like the Monroe Republic. Georgia has better climate and better clothes, they have a little more commerce and they have more agriculture. They are thriving in a way in this world, and Georgia, as far as power. I can't give spoilers. I hate working on a serialized show because I am dying to tell you things. There are such cool ideas. But, I really can't tell you about power in Georgia, except that we are going to see a lot of Georgia. Georgia has interesting kinds of power. You are going to see that Georgia has harnessed steam power, in a way. The great thing about Revolution is that we don't do a whole story about that. It's there, in something that goes by, and you think, "Did I just see that?," and you did, but that's not what the story is about.
Have you or any of the other writers tried living without technology, for any span of time?
RAMBO: Only when there's a power outage and we know it's coming back on. We've talked about what we would do, in that circumstance. The other writers want to come to my house because I have a nice, big wine cellar and lots of candles. I told them they can all come to my house.
Have any of the actors' performances changed what you might have intended to do with their characters?
RAMBO: Yeah. Their take on material always inspires us and we go, "Oh, let's write more of that," or "Maybe they can do this." This is a pretty inspiring cast. You can tell that they love working with one another. It's really genuine. One of the big surprises – and he is an excellent actor, so we shouldn't have thought it was such a surprise – is David Lyons. Eric Kripke did not have long-term plans for the character of Monroe, and then he saw the performances David was doing and he thought, "Oh, Monroe is going to play a huge role. He is not going to get killed, right away, this season. We are going to take Monroe to the limits."
Revolution airs on Monday nights on NBC.

We've all been there. We're on a good streak of working out and then . . . we lose all momentum.
Strategies to Motivate Yourself When You Don't Feel Like Working Out
1. Work Out Shorter and Smarter
You don't need 60 to 90 minutes to get a good workout. I often find I burn the most calories and sweat the most during HIIT (high-intensity interval training) or Tabata workout sessions.
The other day, I had a small pocket of 30 minutes to exercise and pick up my son from soccer practice. I almost talked myself out of it. Instead, I found a 15-minute HIIT spin ride. I worked hard. Really hard.
For some suggested HIIT workouts, check out my Pinterest boards.
2. Don't Stick to a Workout Schedule
This may sound counterintuitive but it works for me.
When I plan on exercising on scheduled days, I don't. Life gets in the way. A parent-teacher conference conflicts with a yoga class. A spin class conflicts with a hair appointment.
Instead, I tell myself, I will workout daily. And, most days I do. Whether it's a walk with my dog or a workout at home after everyone goes to bed, I get myself moving.
3. Exercise at Home
Exercising at home has changed my life.
During snow days, kids home sick or barely squeezing in a workout, I can still find the time to get it done. I've done Beach Body, Aaptiv, yoga, free weights, the elliptical, and hilly walks in my neighborhood.
Sometimes, I miss the social aspect of a gym, however, I remind myself that many of my friends belong to gyms but rarely go.
4. Change It Up
Try something new. I'm constantly adding apps to my collection or finding new workouts to try: Couch to 5K, Fight Camp and Pound.
Keep your eyes peeled on Facebook, Groupon and Living Social to discover new workouts and deals. I bought a ten pack of yoga classes recently on Groupon for under $100 and got to try out a new studio.
Find something you love. And, then don't be afraid to change it up again.
5. Multi-Task
I make important phone calls during my walks. I listen to work-related podcasts on the elliptical. How about listening to a book for your book club on Audible? Make a deal with yourself: you can only finish the podcast or book if you work out.
6. Reward Yourself
Reward yourself after a successful session. Go on Facebook, watch your favorite show, catch up with a friend, eat that dessert or go for a pedicure. I play mental mind games with myself all the time. Sometimes, my reward is as simple as a shower.
7. Be Accountable
Log It
Each time I work out, I make sure to log it on my Apple Watch using FitIV Pulse. The information gets automatically sent to the Apple Health and LoseIt! apps. I am determined to close the circles on my Apple watch every day, proving that I met my move and exercise goals.
Others log their workouts in a dedicated notebook or place stickers on a calendar. A visual representation of your completed workouts can help keep you on track.
Check-In with Others
Whether it's a texting a friend, posting in a Facebook group, or telling your spouse, making someone aware of your exercise goals can help to motivate you.
My kids have learned to ask me, "Did you work out today?" Do you want to know why? I allow them to watch TV or play electronics as long as they don't interrupt me. It's a win-win situation.
Also, since my blog focusing heavily on health and fitness, I feel an extra obligation to exercise regularly.
8. Surround Yourself with Visual Motivational Quotes
Hang up inspirational messages around the house. Check out some of mine on my Motivational Fitness Quotes Pinterest board.
9. Find a Friend
Meet up with friends at the gym. Instead of going for coffee, hike with a friend. Surround yourself with those who also value healthy living.
10. Be Inspired by Others
Watch a YouTube video of someone overcoming their challenges. This video always gets to me.
Follow your favorite fitness influencer on Facebook or Instagram. Just looking at Peloton instructor Robin Arzon's abs on Instagram make me feel guilty about skipping a workout.

During last Thursday's Big Walnut Local School Board of Education meeting, Board members approved hiring Andy Jados as the new Big Walnut High School Principal. Jados replaces Jeff Jones, who is leaving the District to take the Principal's position at Beavercreek High School near Dayton.
Big Walnut Superintendent Angie Pollock said Jados was selected to fill the high school position following a rigorous process that included interviews with numerous stakeholders including staff, students, parents and administrators.
"Andy is the current principal at Franklin Heights High School in South-Western City Schools," Pollock said. "Prior to his time at South-Western he was an assistant principal at Westerville, a dean at Pickerington and taught high school social studies at Hilliard."
Pollock said while Jados was at Westerville he was named the State of Ohio Assistant Principal of the Year through the secondary principals' association, and was also voted the Most Valued Administrator by the Westerville support staff.
"We believe Mr. Jados is a great fit for our high school, and we're excited to welcome him to Big Walnut," Pollock said.
Following the vote approving Jados's $100,000 per year contract, he thanked the board for the opportunity.
"I've grown up 15 minutes from Sunbury, and I've always understood from the outside how special Big Walnut is," Jados said. "When I went through the interviews, what really sold it for me was the interview with students, understanding the pride they have in their school. I intend to uphold the traditions here, and help make this the greatest high school in Central Ohio."
Board members also approved hiring James Hall as a Big Walnut High School Assistant Principal. Hall replaces Bridgette Firstenberger, who has taken an administrative position at Lakewood High School in Cleveland.
Hall, who will earn $80,000 per year, is currently the Grandview Heights Athletic Director, and has four years experience as a Principal.
Current high school Assistant Principal Sarah Wytzka is moving to a newly- created Assistant Principal's position at Big Walnut Intermediate School.


text: So, naturally, I've wanted to get my lady hooked on fly fishing. She'd had very little exposure to it but I was convinced that she'd get a kick out summertime hopper fishing. I took her to one of my favorite spots and I new we'd be into some fun fishing. We approached the first run. This was the picture perfect spot to catch her first real trout on the fly. A shallow undercut bank underneath some long grass hanging into the water. I get jonesin' just thinking that stretch. We had practiced casting in the yard a few times but she made a few warm up casts into the shallows upstream. Once she felt confident with it she plopped the hopper right up in the money zone. BAM! We had a riser and she set the hook so perfectly I couldn't believe it. "I got one!" she screamed out repeatedly. She was so giddy as I coached her bringing it in. I got it in the net and we celebrated her catch. She was so stoked. A standard fish for this stream – yet a great fish for a stream of this size. This process repeated itself over the next couple hours. More great casts with perfect hooksets on EVERY fish. Simply put: the woman has hookset skills. I didn't have to tell her to set once, and this was only the third time fishing on the fly. I was impressed and stoked to say the least. The funniest part of it all is that each hookset was paired with the exact same, "I've got one! I got one! I got one!" as the first fish. I cracked up cause each time she screamed it as if I wasn't standing right next to her seeing it all happen. She was soo stoked with each fish. The next highlight came as we approached a hole I knew all too well. There is certain 16″ brownie that I'd been snubbed by twice already. The first day I came across him he swung out to inspect my bug at the end of a drift. It had already begun to drag so he denied it. I was stoked cause he was the biggest fish I'd seen in this stream thus far. I recast and he swung out and slowly chomped in a way reminiscent of videos I'd seen of huge NZ brownies. I set and he ran into the pool below and came unbuttoned. The second time the lady was will me as I showed her brother the stream for the first time. My attempt at redemption ended up in a missed hookset. Man, I suck. So this third time I wanted her to stick the local piggy. I told her where he'd be hanging out. She was nervous. We got ready and she made the cast. He appeared and as he was rising she pulled the fly out too early in anticipation. NO! Her first folly of the day. He didn't seem to spook so we waited a moment for the fish to settle and gave it a few more casts. On the last one it drifted in some shallow water around a rock and the beast emerged from the darker water. He hesitated for a moment before chomping the hopper down. True to form she set the hook and landed the beast like a champ. We discovered that part of the trouble hooking up was due to the fact that half of the fishes bottom jaw was missing. In addition, the top half of the tail was also missing. I found it so odd to find two such major injuries on one fish. Other than that it was a gorgeous specimen. She couldn't believe it. For me it doesn't get any better than this day. Spending time on a beautiful stream with my lady catching some gorgeous fish on hoppers. Sounds about right to me. 2 Responses Fly Fishing with Girls July 16, 2012 […] her into some decent fish and get her hooked for good.

The electrical motor was invented in 1828 by the Hungarian, Anlos Jedlik, who used his first motor to propel a model electrical automobile. It displayed many versions of its three electrical models, beside some legacy ICE variations for his or her diehard customers. Placing the transmission near the motor saves useful set up area, which is always an vital issue in the auto trade. Not using gasoline or diesel also means that battery electric automobiles are considerably cheaper to fuel than conventional automobiles. I had my automotive up on jack stands, my leaf blower plugged into the wall and a customized coupler sealing it to my intake. Another great way of decreasing value is by going for used or recycled D.C electrical motors, because the motor will serve longer enough even for a life time of two vehicles. In an electric vehicle, the reverse" place operates an electrical switch to reverse the polarity of the motor to make it spin backwards. A complete of 4-5,000 electric autos had been bought within the U.S. under the ZEV mandate.
However, it is also giving me freedom within the sense that I can go additional away from house if I even have a car. He had bought a junky forklift to build his own automotive carry, and had no use the the motor and another parts. However, in a parallel hybrid, both the electric motor and Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) provide power to show the wheels and drive the automobile. When maximum torque is required, particularly at low speeds, the magnetic area energy (B) should be most – so that inverter and motor currents are maintained at their lowest attainable values.
It comprises a gasoline 1.8 liter Aluminum 4-cylinder sixteen-valve engine coupled with a – everlasting magnet AC synchronous motor. The two electrical vehicles on our calculator, the Chevy Volt and Nissan Leaf, current specific challenges in this regard, as there may be not enough historical data on both automotive to confidently predict future expenses like depreciation and repairs. They are quite similar to gasoline powered 4 wheeler's except electric ones are smaller and white lighter, as well as extra quiet. It's really a characteristic of these collection wound DC electrical automotive motors, though, moderately than electric automobiles normally. To accomplish this, engineers create regenerative braking techniques which used the electrical resistance of a generator to slow the car down lengthy earlier than they mechanical brakes come into play.
Currently, the automobile is insured and registered, though the DMV is still requiring that I drag it in and PROVE that there is no engine in the automotive before they give me the emissions tesing exemption. It's an entire conversion mission, as described in the previous part of this article. Thank you so much for the info sir however can you tell me the way to construct a voice enabled automobile. The other cause why electrical bike conversion kits are type of popular is as a result of they help you maintain the bicycle that you already had by changing it into an electric vehicle. Lighter materials in motor building, new alternative options for rare-earth magnets, and optimized overall performance traits for various car calls for are all very a lot in the crosshairs of automotive engineers.
This type of RC motor is changing into essentially the most sought after resulting from its high velocity efficiency and durability. The features you may even see from a leaf blower or comparable electrical unit are mostly offsetting the inherent losses of the system and rising volumetric efficiency. The motor has the same bolt pattern, shaft diameter, and size as an Advanced DC 9 inch or Netgain WarP 9. The controller has both off pedal and addition braking regen.

Dangers of DUI and DWI
Cars are very powerful vehicles, and any accidents involving these machines can result in injuries that may affect you for the rest of your life. Any collisions with motor vehicles may leave victims with serious injuries including:
- Traumatic brain injury
- Spinal cord injury
- Broken bones
- Internal organ damage
- Disfigurement
Because people under the influence of drugs and alcohol lose their ability to make rational decisions, the accidents caused by these drivers are often severe. In some cases, you may lose a loved one due to the reckless actions of a drunk or drugged driver.
