- The Roses Underneath by C.F. Yetmen
- Publisher: Ypsilon & Co. Press
- Date published: January 28th, 2014
- Pages: 411
- Genre: Historical romance / historical fiction
It is August 1945 in Wiesbaden, Germany. With the country in ruins, Anna Klein, displaced and separated from her beloved husband, struggles to support herself and her six-year old daughter Amalia. Her job typing forms at the Collecting Point for the US Army's Monuments Men is the only thing keeping her afloat. Charged with securing Nazi-looted art and rebuilding Germany's monuments, the Americans are on the hunt for stolen treasures. But after the horrors of the war, Anna wants only to hide from the truth and rebuild a life with her family. When the easy-going American Captain Henry Cooper recruits her as his reluctant translator, the two of them stumble on a mysterious stash of art in a villa outside of town. Cooper's penchant for breaking the rules capsizes Anna's tenuous security and propels her into a search for elusive truth and justice in a world where everyone is hiding something.
In her debut novel C.F. Yetmen tells a story of loss and reconciliation in a shattered world coming to terms with war and its aftermath.

This novel was an expected pleasure to read. The book centers around Anna Klein, a mother with a five year old daughter who has fled the Russian held sector of Austria/Germany where her husband, a country doctor and communist, has decided to remain. Fleeing to American controlled Weisbaden to find find her mother's best friend, Anna struggles with extreme poverty and lack of food .
She finds a job working for the Monuments Men, men of different artistic disciplines who were drafted from the US to recover art treasures stolen by the Nazis. Because of her ability to speak English as well as her background in art, she is hired as a translator for Captain Cooper, an architect drafted into the army to assist in the recovery of the artwork.
Although this is a piece of historical fiction with a gripping storyline, we also become privy to the private sentiments of extreme guilt felt by some the German civilians, even non-Nazi supporters, who saw or didn't quite understand what was happening during the ethnic cleansing. Anna's need to expunge her past and redeem herself became a very meaningful part of this story.
Despite the serious nature of the topic, I found myself flying through the pages. An intelligent and absorbing storyline.

It is obvious that certain similarities between these two portraits can't be denied (viz both cigars are "Churchills", both men have real "salt and pepper" facial hair and possibly the same brand of toupess, and both men affect a certain undefined foreign accent – according to the audio transcript). Yet such superficial resemblance does not justify the speculation that the man in this picture who claims to be the author of the Dracula Chronicles is in fact only a "front" for the real creator of the series. And that the true author, out of a noble disdain for popular acclaim, prefers to remain unacknowledged.

What Kind of Doctor Do I Need?
Stephan Moll, MD writes… Not everybody with DVT or PE needs the same type of doctor. The best combination is probably to have (a) a health care professional in a formal Warfarin Clinic (Coumadin Clinic) and (b) a physician with special expertise in blood clots (thrombosis). Patients who have been diagnosed and are being followed by a primary care provider or non-thrombosis specialist may ask: "Should I be seeing a specialist?" And if the answer is "yes", then: "What kind?" These questions are difficult to answer, as the answer depends on the level of comfort and expertise of the primary care provider to manage the various aspects of DVT and PE. The patient and his/her primary care physician should decide together what specialty care is needed. The decision has to take into consideration whether a physician, clinic, or center with special expertise in thrombosis is geographically available. Thrombosis Clinics may also go by the name of "Heart and Vascular Clinic" or something similar. A general concept as to which patients to consider for a referral to a specialized Thrombosis Clinic is here. Additional aspects are discussed below.
A. For Warfarin (Coumadin) Management
- Coumadin Clinic: The patient on warfarin will need a health care professional who will (a) monitor and adjust the warfarin, and (b) make plans how to best interrupt warfarin therapy for dental work and surgeries. This day-to-day warfarin management is often best done through a specialized Coumadin Clinic. Such clinics are frequently run by pharmacists or nurses specialized in and dedicated to warfarin management. A list of clinics in the U.S. can be found here. A physician is typically in charge of the overall Coumadin Clinic operation. This is most often a general internist, family medicine physician, cardiologist, or hematologist. Patients do not necessarily need to see that physician, as long as they are well taken care of by the non-physician Coumadin Clinic provider.
- Non-Coumadin Clinic: Primary care providers or various specialists may also provide warfarin monitoring in their office, without being a dedicated and large-volume specialized warfarin clinic. The more patients on warfarin a clinic follows, the more experienced the staff likely is.
B. For DVT or PE Management
- Thrombosis Clinic: The most comprehensive and most up-to-date care may be provided through a dedicated "Thrombosis Clinic" or Thrombosis Center. Such a clinic may be part of a Thrombosis and Hemostasis Center, i.e. a "Center for Bleeding and Clotting Disorders". A partial list of such centers in the U.S. can be found here. Thrombosis Clinics are often staffed by hematologists, but may also be run by general internists, vascular medicine specialists, cardiologists or other physicians who have an interest and expertise in blood clots (thrombosis). The role of the specialist in the Thrombosis Clinic is to discuss and help with decisions on:
(a) Diagnosis of DVT and PE
(b) length of therapy with blood thinners
(c) the work-up of the cause of the clot, such as initiation and interpretation of laboratory thrombophilia work-up
(d) enrollment into clinical trials
(e) comprehensive education about clots
(f) switch from warfarin to one of the new blood thinners
(g) choice of safe contraceptive methods and management of possible future pregnancy
(g) appropriate referrals, such as referral to a vascular surgeon, if varicose vein surgery is needed; to vascular interventional radiology, if placement or removal of an IVC filter, or stenting of anatomic abnormalities of the veins, such as May-Thurner syndrome, is needed; to a lung doctor (pulmonologist), if the patient has chronic lung damage from PE, called pulmonary hypertension.
(h) The Thrombosis Clinic can also inform the patient on newly published data that may have an impact on the management of the patient.
Visits in the Thrombosis Clinic may only be a one-time event with subsequent management through the primary care physician, or may lead to every 6-12 months follow-up.
- Primary Care Physician or other: Many primary care physicians also follow patients with DVT or PE. It is difficult to say which patients need to be referred to a specialized Thrombosis Clinic – clearly the complicated or young patient should, but may be any patient with a DVT or PE.
- Hematologist-Oncologist: Even though hematologists (= blood doctors) are often specifically trained in blood clots and clotting disorders, the hematologists-oncologists in private practice are often more oncologists than hematologist, dealing more with cancer than with blood clots. They may be good resources, but are not necessarily so.
- Hematologists, Cardiologists, Vascular Surgeons, Vascular Medicine specialists, General Internists: Any one of these type of physicians may have a special expertise and interest in DVT, PE, anticoagulation, and clotting disorders.
- Finding a local physician specialized in thrombosis and thrombophilia care: The American Society of Hematology offers an index of physicians who have a clinical interest in treating patients with blood clots and clotting disorders. The index can be found here. To use this index, select your location and under the drop-down box for 'Clinical Interests', select "Thrombosis and Hemostasis/Blood Clotting".
C. For Management of Chronic Complications of DVT and PE
- Postthrombotic syndrome (PTS): This term describes the problems that some patients develop after a DVT: chronic leg swelling and pain (more details can be found here and here). Compression stockings are the typical treatment. These can be prescribed by any physician. Occasionally home compression lymphedema pumps are appropriate treatment for PTS, or a procedure through Vascular Surgery or Vascular Radiology to balloon open and possibly stent veins narrowed by clot scar tissue. The referral to these clinics can be made by the primary care provider.
- Wound Clinic: Damage of the leg from a DVT may lead to chronic swelling and pain and, in a few patients, to skin breakdown and open sores (skin ulcers). If skin ulcers develop, the patients should be referred to a specialized Wound Clinic, which is often run by vascular surgeons, sometimes general internists or vascular medicine specialists.
- Pulmonary Clinic: Damage of the lung may result in chronic shortness of breath, referred to as pulmonary hypertension. Such patients should be referred to a pulmonologist, preferably one who runs a Pulmonary Hypertension Clinic.
D. For Testing for and Management of Clotting Disorders (Thrombophilias)
- Thrombosis Clinic: The Thrombosis Clinic physician or hematologist may be the best source of information on testing for thrombophilias. Again, the hematologists-oncologists in private practice may be good resources, but are not necessarily, as they are often more oncologists than hematologists and deal more with cancer than with blood clots and clotting disorders.
Disclosures: I have no financial conflict of interest. I am a hematologist and work in a formal Thrombosis Clinic.

I re-read Robert Bartlett's The Natural and the Supernatural in the Middle Ages today and came across the following:
For there are animals called dragons and these animals fly in the air, swim in the water and walk on land, and sometimes when in the air they become aroused by lust, whence they often emitted semen into springs and rivers and because of this a deadly year ensued. So a remedy was found for this, that a fire should be made of bones and thus the smoke would drive these animals away.
-John Beleth, Summa de ecclesiasticis officiis (12th century), quoted in Bartlett, 71-72.
Yikes, as if dragon-fire wasn't perilous enough!

Cory Gilmer, caddie for PGA Tour player Blayne Barber, collapsed while at dinner during the Sony Open, hitting his head in the process. Gilmer was admitted to the neurological intensive care unit at a Honolulu hospital, and was listed in critical condition. The former Auburn golfer has since stabilized, but remains in an induced coma, according to an update from the family.
Costs of such medical care is inherently expensive, to say nothing of the extra costs associated with Gilmer's parents staying in Hawaii to tend to their son. To battle the rising expenses, Barber started a drive on Monday to funnel funds to the Gilmer family.
The fundraiser page reads: "We've had multiple people ask about how to be able to help Cory and his family during this time and now we have this! We aren't sure of his medical costs at this time, but we do know the cost of staying in Hawaii for his family is very expensive. This fund will help cover both of those things. Let's blow it out of the water! Thank you!"
You can donate to the Gilmer family by reaching the GoFundMe page titled "Cory in Hawaii."

Casetta del Divino Zelo
My friend recommended me this place in Silang Cavite that sells organic soap, The place is actually a bee farm and most of the products that they offer is more into Bee products/organic. What made me interested to visit the place was the Italian Restaurant (Casetta del Divino Zelo) run by nuns(Sisters of Divine Zeal). As per my friend, the nun who cooks for Casetta del Divino Zelo stayed for years in Italy.
After months of planing ito natuloy na din! Its my birthday week at nagkayayaan kaming magkakaibigan to visit Tagytay so I suggested to have brunch/Lunch in Casetta del Divino Zelo. Actually no-one knew how to go there so we tried this very useful app (google map). I tried to look for direction for Casetta del Divino Zelo but it is not searchable so I tried Ilog Maria Honeybee Farm and viola directions was available. I really recommend to use this app or other Navigation app since the signage of Ilog Maria Honeybee Farm is not really visible along the highway.
The place is very cozy and relaxing ambiance. Since this is run by nuns there is a small chapel overlooking from our table so while waiting for our meal umikotikot muna kami sa place. I love the chapel parang napaka peaceful lang ang dating at since open ang sides medyo presko sya. The garden looks nice, kahit kakatapos lng nang typhoon so madami daw nasira sa place but the surrounding is well maintained by the nuns parang di binagyo. The dinning itself has this relaxing feeling maybe because of the garden view at open air sya.Very nice and clean.
Dahil mausisa lang I got to check the kitchen. Surprisingly clean, it didn't look like a restaurant kitchen but a house kitchen which is well maintained ang linis sobra!

Why try to convince him….
I often get asked by women, how is it that a relationship that was going so well, with the man showing interest and even acting as if he was in love, could end abruptly without them ever realizing that something was wrong.
There are a thousand answers to this question. However this is not the purpose of my message today. I will not talk about the reasons why a man walks away.
I will instead discuss the biggest mistake that the woman does in this situation, which is: try to convince the man to stay in the relationship, if she has the opportunity to see him or talk to him, or even worse by sending him a long email.
This approach of trying to convince a man that the relationship has a great potential, that you are meant for each other, that you are the woman for him and that you are willing to make an effort to improve things between you (whereas you are not at all responsible for the situation) only makes matter worse. If he was debating whether to stay or leave, with this attitude, you will have convinced him that the best thing is for him to leave.
Today I would like to make you understand that it is NEVER necessary to convince a man to stay in a relationship. If he is with you it's because he wants to. If he wants to leave, there are not many things that you can do or say to keep him (next time I will discuss what to do in such case).
You probably have read the following words of wisdom to women somewhere. A friend of mine recently post them on her Facebook status, and I thought that it would be a good thing, considering that it is a recurrent question that I get from women, to reiterate these simple undeniable truths:
- If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away.
- If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay.
- Stop making excuses for a man and his behaviour.
- Allow your intuition (you know it when something is wrong) to save you from heartache.
- Stop trying to change yourselves for a relationship that's not meant to be.
- If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you deserve then heck no, you can't "be friends." A friend wouldn't mistreat a friend.
- Don't settle. If you feel like he is stringing you along, then he probably is.
- Don't stay because you think "it will get better." You'll be mad at yourself a year later for staying when things are not better.
- You cannot change a man's behaviour. Change comes from within.
- Don't EVER make him feel he is more important than you are…even if he has more education or is in a better job. Do not make him into a quasi-god. He is a man, nothing more nothing less.
- A man will only treat you the way you ALLOW him to treat you.
And finally, last but not least……
- Make him miss you sometimes…when a man always know where you are, and you are always readily available to him- he takes it for granted.
Ladies, I strongly encourage you to apply these recommendations as best as you can in your love life. It may seem difficult at first, but down the road you will only be happier.
If you find it challenging to apply these concepts in your life, or if you simply wish to discuss, I invite you to contact me for a free consultation. It will my pleasure to answer any questions you may have, to the best of my knowledge.
Until next time….

The militants used 120-mm mortars 12 times in the ATO area.
The militants were shelling the Ukrainian troops from 6 pm to midnight along the boundary line.
"The enemy has concentrated most intensive fire towards the Ukrainian positions in the area of Avdiyivka, Pisky, Opytnte and Shyrokine in Donetsk oblast,' as well as in Pavlopil' and Gnutova in Lugansk oblast," – says the statement.
The enemy used 120-mm mortars, which is another gross violation of the Minsk agreements by the Russian-terrorist forces. In addition, the terrorists shelled our positions from 122-mm in the area of Avdiyivka.
Also, in the evening the criminals fired from tanks in the area of Avdiyivka and Pavlopil.
There was no shelling of settlements recorded from 18.00 until midnight on April 9.
At the same time, the enemy has greatly intensified aerial reconnaissance. In the period from 20.00 to 23.00 the Ukrainian troops were observing flying drones in the vicinity of Shchastia, Bogdanivs'ke, Shyrokine, Mariupol, Slovianoserbsk, Starobilsk, Lysychansk and Teple.
On the eve, the "Information Resistance" group reported about the increased in activity by the terrorists in the area of Bakhmutka.Source: ZN.UA

As a pediatric feeding therapist, I often encounter parents with misconceived notions about choking, especially when their children are between 6 months and 4 years old and just learning to eat a variety of solid foods. Below, I list five common myths SLPs can dispel, along with five truths we can share to raise awareness and keep "learning eaters" safe.
- Coughing while eating signals choking. Typically, occasional coughing while eating means the child experienced difficulty coordinating the swallowing mechanism, and is attempting to expel any residue from the airway and surrounding area. In order to cough, air must be moving through the airway, so a cough is often a good sign of airway protection. However, be on guard for continued coughing or a significant change in breathing pattern during or after the episode.
- Gagging on food means my child is choking. Gagging is a reflex also helpful for protecting the airway. Although we don't want children to experience repeated episodes of gagging or any negative association with food, the occasional gag occurs when the brain detects a loss of control of the food in the mouth. Still, an active gag reflex is not a foolproof safety mechanism. A child's airway is narrow and food can still become lodged or inhaled much easier than in an adult's.
- My baby's "tongue thrust" will protect him from choking. Babies move their tongues in a forward/backward movement when breast or bottle feeding. When solid foods get introduced, this anterior/posterior movement seems to push food out of baby's mouth until baby learns to propel the food to the back of the mouth for swallowing. Purees help babies learn to manage a safe swallowing pattern and other soft, hand-held foods—avocado or slivers of peeled roasted sweet potato—can gently support feeding skills development. But don't rely on a baby's tendency to push food out before learning to chew and swallow. Learning to eat is a developmental process. Offering foods too advanced for a child's developmental stage increases the likelihood of choking, especially given a young child's unique anatomy.
- Raising the hands above the child's head stops the coughing or choking. Raising arms when someone coughs might actually make the situation more dangerous. The motion of the arms influences the motion of the child's neck and trunk. In turn, the food causing the coughing can shift and block the airway.
- Pat a child's back when they're coughing. Remember, coughing isn't choking. Patting a child's back when they cough might cause the offending food to fall into the airway and block airflow.
- A person choking often makes little to no sound. Always stay present and observant while a young child eats. If the airway becomes blocked, little to no air can pass through the vocal folds. Your eyes most likely will see the choking before you hear anything, if at all.
- Call 911 and perform life-saving measures if a child experiences difficulty breathing, presents with a change of color anywhere about his face or suddenly begins to drool—even if you hear other vocal sounds.
- Food can enter the larynx, trachea and/or lungs for a variety of reasons. Known as "aspiration" or "silent aspiration," depending on the circumstances, this inhalation of food causes immediate as well as delayed complications. Even if a child isn't choking, aspiration can cause life-threatening issues over time. Bring the following delayed symptoms to the attention of the child's primary health care provider immediately:
- Difficulty managing saliva.
- Wet "gurgly" voice quality.
- Mucous build-up after eating or chronic congestion.
- Multiple episodes of chronic low-grade fever.
- History of pneumonia or frequent respiratory infections.
- Consistently coughing during or after eating or drinking.
- Fear around eating.
- Decreased interest in eating.
- Weight loss or apparent poor growth.
- Consistent discomfort or irritability just before, during or after eating or drinking.
- Avoid certain foods unless softened and/or cut, smeared or separated into tiny, manageable pieces. These foods generate high choking risks unless properly prepared: apples, nuts, seeds, grapes, raw carrots, popcorn, chunks of peanut butter, clumps of raisins or dried fruits, marshmallows, chewing gum, hard candies and meat sticks/sausages.
- Get trained—along with babysitters and older siblings—in CPR and choking first aid, like the Heimlich maneuver. The Red Cross offers a reference guide, public classes in most hospitals, and online courses and instructional videos.
Melanie Potock, MA, CCC-SLP,treats children birth to teens who experience difficulty eating. She co-authored "Raising a Healthy Happy Eater: A Stage-by-Stage Guide to Setting Your Child on the Path to Adventurous Eating" (2015), "Baby Self-Feeding: Solid Food Solutions to Create Lifelong Healthy Eating Habits" and "Happy Mealtimes with Happy Kids," and produced the kids' CD "Dancing in the Kitchen: Songs that Celebrate the Joy of Food!" Potock's two-day course on pediatric feeding is offered for ASHA CEUs.

I saw this editorial the other day and found it so refreshing. Not only does model Chloe Norgaard pop like popcorn with her rebel rainbow inspired hair, but her smile is so invigorating and she'd decked out in Dries Van Noten Spring/Summer 2013 — drooling! One of my favorite editorials of the season for sure. Photographer Angelo Pennetta and stylist Sara Moonves truly work magic together.
I would for sure try out the tank this summer if my budget would allow…
have never really been into plaids, but wow, Dries is such perfection.
I would so be down to get a slurpee with Chloe this summer if she's in NYC!

Graded Children – Evidence of Longrun Consequences of School Grades from a Nationwide Reform
Anna Sjögren
Swedish elementary school children stopped receiving written end of year report cards following a grading reform in 1982. Gradual implementation of the reform creates an opportunity to investigate the effects of being graded on adult educational attainments and earnings for children in the cohorts born 1954–1974, using a difference-in-differences strategy. Accounting for municipal time trends and tracing out reform dynamics, there is some evidence that being graded increases girls' years of schooling, but has no significant average effect on boys. Analysis of effects by family background suggests that receiving grades increases the probability of high school graduation for boys and girls with compulsory school educated parents. Sons of university graduates, however, earn less and are less likely to get a university degree if they were graded in elementary school.

- If you are in immediate danger on campus, call Public Safety (240-895-4911) and/or 911 as soon as possible.
- If you need immediate medical assistance, call 911 as soon as possible.
Seeking Medical Assistance
The College urges you to seek medical assistance/care directly following an instance of sexual violence.
A medical provider can provide emergency and/or follow-up medical services. The medical exam has two goals: first, to diagnose and treat any injury or physical effect (including identifying and addressing any sexually transmitted infections, HIV, or pregnancy) and second, to properly collect and preserve evidence.
The Sexual Misconduct Advocacy and Resource Team (SMART), the CPS staff therapist/advocate, and advocates from Walden-Sierra may accompany you to the hospital. Any evidence will be held until you decide whether or not to press charges, and any information will be kept confidential until you wish to notify the College and/or the police.
Sexual Assault Forensic Exams (SAFE Exams)
St. Mary's Hospital and Calvert Memorial Hospital provide Sexual Assault Forensic Exams. These exams, which are performed by trained Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners, are free to the Complainant. SAFE exams are used to diagnose the extent of any injury and to properly collect and preserve evidence to contribute to any legal investigations and proceedings. SAFE exams are maintained anonymously at the hospital for a minimum of 90 days. You may refuse any part of the SAFE exam.
There is a 96-hour window following an incident of sexual assault during which evidence may be preserved. The decision to seek timely medical attention and to gather any evidence will preserve the full range of options to pursue criminal prosecution as well as seek resolution under the College policy. Taking steps to gather evidence does not commit you to any particular course of action. The College and/or the police will not be contacted without your permission.
If you would like a SAFE exam, don't shower, comb your hair, use the bathroom, or clean your body in any way. Be sure to preserve any clothing (including undergarments) in a paper bag to bring to the hospital.
Reporting Options
- SMCM Public Safety: (240) 895-4911 or x4911 from any campus phone
- Title IX Coordinator: (240) 895-4105
- Any "Responsible Employee"
College employees with supervisory and leadership responsibilities are considered "responsible employees." This includes all faculty, coaches, administrators, RAs/RHCs, and other student employees/volunteers with a significant responsibility for student welfare. These "responsible employees" are required to share any reports of sexual misconduct with the Title IX Coordinator.
- St. Mary's County Sheriff's Office: 911 or (301) 475-8008
- Maryland State Police Leonardtown Barracks: (301) 475-8955
Confidentiality and Privacy
The College is committed to protecting the privacy of all individuals involved in a report of sexual harassment, sexual violence, stalking, or intimate partner violence. All College employees who are involved in the College's Title IX response, including the Title IX Coordinator, Deputy Title IX Coordinator, investigators, and hearing board members, receive specific training about respecting and safeguarding private information. Throughout the process, every effort will be made to protect the privacy interests of all individuals involved in a manner consistent with the need for a thorough review of the report. Privacy and confidentiality have distinct meanings under this policy.
Privacy generally means that information related to a report of misconduct will only be shared with a limited circle of individuals. The use of this information is limited to those College employees who "need to know" in order to assist in the active review, investigation, or resolution of the report. While not bound by confidentiality, these individuals will be discreet and respect the privacy of all individuals involved in the process.
Confidentiality means that information shared by an individual with designated campus or community professionals cannot be revealed to any other individual without the express permission of the individual. These campus and community professionals include mental health providers, ordained clergy, rape crisis counselors and attorneys, all of whom have legally protected confidentiality. These individuals are prohibited from breaking confidentiality unless there is an imminent threat of harm to self or others or a suspicion of child abuse.
An individual who seeks completely confidential assistance may do so by speaking with professionals who have a legally protected confidentiality. On campus, confidential resources available to students include counselors in the Counseling Center, medical staff in the Health Center, and the CPS staff therapist/advocate. Employees may access confidential assistance through the Employee Assistance Program. Information shared with these resources will remain confidential and will not be shared with the College or anyone else without express permission of the individual seeking services unless maintaining such confidentiality would result in harm to self or others. When a report involves suspected abuse of a minor under the age of 18, these confidential resources are required by Maryland law and by the College's Child Abuse Reporting Policy to notify child protective services and/or local law enforcement. They are also required to notify the Title IX Coordinator that such a report has been made.
Both those who have experienced and/or been affected by sexual misconduct will have equal access to College support and counseling services.

We put in a evohome last year and spoke directly to honeywell who said it would not support our megaflow (or any unvented system).
So we ended up using a simple Siemens RWB2 which we already has to control the evohome.
To be honest I'm glad we did, we have had a number of issues with the evohome from signal problems to CH not coming on as expected. At least the hot water system works without fail.

March 12, 2007 – New York – The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame held their Twenty-second Annual Induction Dinner in the Grand Ballroom of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel. This year The Ronettes, Patti Smith, Van Halen, Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five and R.E.M were inducted.
This spring I was very busy with the opening of my ROCKERS exhibition in Sao Paulo, but that didn't stop me from going out whenever I could. On this page I have a roundup of the shows I've seen and the scenes I've been to from March to July of 2007.

The MED-JELLY smart phone application, which was made available for free download, both for Android and iOS platforms., as of April 2014, was shortlisted by the Malta Communications Authority (MCA) for its annual eBiz awards. The awards ceremony was organised in December 2014 and a short promotional clip about the MED-JELLY app was produced for the event, and can be viewed from the following link:
The application provides the user with information on the facilities and amenities on different Maltese beaches as well as a weather forecast for the same beaches, besides information on different jellyfish species and on how to treat their stings. The application also provides users with a jellyfish occurrence forecast for the different beaches. Users can take photos with their smart phones and submit jellyfish reports through the same application. The application was developed by the Alert group and Prof. Alan Deidun and Mr. Denis Cutajar from the PO Unit at the University of Malta as part of the MED-JELLYRISK project, within which the Department of Biology is also participating.

The rest of Lithuania
This post is about places we visited near spots we camped for free. It is amazing what you find traveling through the countryside.
The inner court yard houses an interesting museum of Lithuanian history.
People started placing crosses on the hill in the mid 1800's.
During the Soviet Union occupation it was a symbol of peaceful resistance.
There are layers and layers of crosses.
The underground Plokstine missile base was the first nuclear missile base of the Soviet Union. We were able to tour the base on our own because the guided tours were only in Lithuanian. We rented an audio recording that explained everything in English. They let us tour the underground facility on our own at our own pace.
This guy is the first thing you see as you enter the facility. He was very creepy.
Cold War propaganda. One side of the room had Soviet and the other U.S.

DALLAS, July 2, 2018 – Smoking is the leading preventable cause of death in the United States, according to the Center for Disease Control (CDC), with more than 480,000 smoking-related deaths each year. In addition, it is one of the toughest habits to stop, as it takes an average of five to seven tries before a person achieves success quitting.

DALLAS, April 17, 2018 – Addiction affects not only the ones abusing the drugs, but every person around them including children of all ages. Most addictions alter the brain functions of the individual who is abusing the substances, which limits the person's ability to take care of everyday things such as being on time to work, making dinner for the family or helping their children with homework. An impaired parent's behavior can have a long-lasting impact on children, including affecting how they self soothe, eat, sleep, trust adults and form relationships.
DALLAS, March 12, 2018 – As you may know, there are a lot of opinions and controversy surrounding Oklahoma State Question 788 and the legalization of cannabis for medicinal use for qualified patients. One nationally known addiction expert recently crossed the Red River to help stop this initiative from becoming law. Dr.
DALLAS, February 20, 2018 – Most kids in high school attend football games, hang out with friends and participate in recreational activities. That wasn't the case for Andrew, who lives in Greater Dallas. Now 20, he became addicted to drugs during his freshman year in high school at the age of 15. From dealing with turmoil at home to self-medicating because of a knee injury, his addiction worsened until he sought treatment at Enterhealth in April of last year. His family intervened after his sister found him lying on the ground unable to speak due to an overdose while at college.
According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, e-cigarettes are now the most commonly used form of tobacco among youth in the United States.

A nice and light flat in a new exclusive house in the centre of Riga in a prestigious area of parks and embassies. The 4th floor, 125.5 м2.
A flat with large panoramic windows and with a beautiful prospect to the city, a large balcony. A real fireplace, which will afford you the cosiness and comfort on long winter evenings.
A very convenient layout – a spacious living room is connected with a kitchen, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms – one with a large bathtub, the other — with a modern showier cabin, a walk-in closet and a storeroom.
The flat has a fully equipped kitchen, plenty built-in cupboards. There is an underground parking, the entrance to the flat directly from the lift.

These days there is so much talk about "bullies." Or bullying.
What is this bullshit about? Oh, I'm sorry youngsters…is someone being mean to you? Unnecessarily?
Fucking, welcome to life.
And let's be honest…bullying isn't a big deal. We've all been bullied. It's sort of your own fault for wanting to take Instagrams with your iPhone of a selfie of you in biology class…right?
Whatever. All I'm saying is…society, overall, is just nicer now except for kids. So when your peer is "mean" to you…you jump to the conclusion that he or she is bullying you. When maybe he's just saying the truth…you do smell. Don't run to Facebook to post your last will and testament. Get Zestfully clean and you'll fair better tomorrow.
But from the beginning of time…to probably the end of time…there have been insults…constant insults. Fat, four-eyes, fag, fake…. Someone somewhere is going to have an opinion of you which is gonna bum you out. And you need to just… get through it. And I'll never say that it's going to get better. It sucks. All around. But eh… I have no idea why people are mean. On purpose to other people. I know it hurts, and I don't want anyone else to feel like that.
Look, bullying isn't a big deal because Hollywood doesn't dedicate a lot of time to bullying. We got what? Mean Girls? Heathers? Ok…no. No one cares. You know what America cares about more than bullying? Hangovers! We got three Hangover movies. Same plot, even. Still, we lapped it up.
I had a bullying movie growing up…it was called "E.T." Yeah. He was bullied and you know what happened? A friggin' alien showed up at his house with a bag of Reese's Pieces and was totally cool and would say shit like "Phone home."
That's life, dude. Those people who bully you…they know nothing about you. Ok, so you're smart and you wear glasses…and they make fun of you for it…
First of all… lame. They are going for the obvious. They are just lucky they don't have an obvious as well, like a hairy mole. No one with a hairy mole has ever been popular.
Second of all…who they fuck are they? While they are making fun of you for acing math class this semester .. you get to go home to a super cool alien with a heartlight? He lets it shine wherever he goes?
C'mon. I'm sure life is hard for kids…but its hard for everyone. All I'm saying is…don't go around giving kids any ideas. Maybe they wouldn't be so mean if society didn't already expect them too. How about they have the same manners that we adults try to have? HAHA. *sigh*
America is all a bunch of assholes now. That's so sad. I'm so glad I didn't have any kids. Whew!

In 2009 scientists discovered dolphins playing football with jelly fish off the coast of Wales (unfortunately for the jelly fish they were not the opponents!). Some believe they have been playing this game for hundreds, if not thousands of years.
At Football Earth we have known this for some time and here in Britain, in 2008, we first brought this to the attention of The Non-League Paper. Except it is not just dolphins that have been playing football for thousands of years, but the whole of the animal kingdom!
Football Earth is a weekly panel cartoon about animals who play the beautiful game that has now featured in over 425 panels. As well as in The Non-League Paper, where the game continues to thrive, it has also featured in BeanoMAX, and currently She Kicks Magazine.
Proving that the natural game is truly an international sport, the panel also features regularly in the USA, where it is called Soccer Earth (I know...), and in Italy as Il calcio nel mondo animale. In 2015 and 2016 every month was brightened by a fresh cartoon courtesy of Carousel Calendars. and kitchens and bedrooms all over the world can be improved by a Football Earth roller blind produced by Creatively Different. And now in 2017, for the first time, a collection of cartoons is available as a hard backed book published by Summersdale, entitled The Wild Side.
So if you are a fan of the natural game, and you want to see more action, visit the gallery on this website, check out any of the above publications, buy The Wild Side from a good bookshop or get a fresh cartoon delivered every week into your inbox by Go Comics.

Few topics raise the discomfort level like this one. I can feel you all starting to tug your collars right now. But you can't avoid the subject forever, as hard as you might try.
My daughter raised the issue at a fairly young age. I'm not sure where she got her information, but as she brushed her hair one day, she casually mentioned, "I know how babies are made." Then she turned to me, cheeks and eyes blazing, and said, "And you did it!"
Like many of the more odious parenting tasks, informing our kids about the miracles of life has fallen to me. There are several ways to approach this:
Method 1: Talk to your kids early and often using anatomically correct verbiage. Which they will then spout at dinner parties and other inappropriate locales as soon as they realize the power of their newly-learned words. I did not use this method, but I sure know which parents did.
Method 2: Wait until they ask, and then provide them with a brutally detailed response. This is the tactic I use. It makes my husband a little weak in the knees. He believes in a little mystery. (This led to much disagreement when we got the inevitable questions about the existence of Santa Claus. My husband wanted to perpetuate the myth, but I cannot lie to a child who has just said, "I want you to tell me the truth," even if it might be in my best interests to do so.)
Method 3: Wait long enough, and your kid will hear it from someone else. Of course, what they hear is anyone's guess. When my youngest child was about four, his older sister was scheduled to watch a movie called "The Miracle of Birth" in her third-grade class. I'm not sure what she thought she was going to see, but I can tell you it wasn't a birth. Her brother came running across the yard to report to me that she "was going to watch a movie at school – a man and a woman with no clothes on, and their privates hooked together!"
Oh, the memories. Now I'm weak in the knees.

Modern-classical according to The Arts Desk
Posted 8 Apr 2010 by The Arts Desk
This month our friends at The Arts Desk have delved deep in the post-classical movement. As Owen Pallett has beautifully demonstrated in his latest Domino release "Lewis Takes Off His Shirt" (featured in this month's HNE Podcast) there is a beautiful and captivating selection of hybrid classical & electronic music at the moment. Here are some insights into the many experimental artists that are successfully blurring the boundaries of "high" and "low" culture and sidestepping this distinction completely.
It used to be that when the world of orchestral music came into contact with pop culture, this would only produce painfully self-conscious fusions. One might snigger at prog rockers getting airs and graces as they showed off their virtuosity with classical themes, or at orchestras trying to act cool by recording "classic rock" albums. Of course there were exceptions - the soundtrack maestros like Ennio Moricone and Bernard Hermann or the haunting harmonics of Nick Drake or- but these were always well outside the world of the concert hall.
In particular the world of electronica has created its own ruleset: the complex harmonics of 1990s techno and electronic, in many cases closer to the modern classical world than they are to rock and pop. This has allowed, for example, legendary producer Jeff Mills to confound his reputation as atonal and pummelling by recording versions of his classic tracks live with the Montpelier Philharmonic Orchestra, and Uwe Schmidt aka Atom™ to explore the history of the Viennese waltz on his stunning 'Liedgut' album. His fellow Detroit techno originator Carl Craig, together with Berlin's Moritz Von Oswald was able to remix classical recordings for the respected Deutsche Gramophon label - a project which had its live debut in London earlier this year - without it seeming incongruous. Meanwhile the London Sinfonietta and 20-piece New York ensemble Alarm Will Sound have both easily incorporated orchestral transcriptions of Aphex Twin tracks into their repertoire alongside pieces by the likes of Ligeti, Cage and Steve Reich.
Post-rock has provided an entirely different arena for musicians to escape the strictures of the guitar/drum format and expand into "post-classical" arrangements. Owen Pallett, formerly known as Final Fantasy but now recording solo under his own name, is renowned for his live show in which he electronically builds up rich layers of his own string playing to back his quirky songs - but he is just as comfortable arranging and playing for The Arcade Fire, Mika, Dirty Projectors and The Last Shadow Puppets. Likewise the playful chamber ensemble Clogs are just as able to form part of US mega-indie band The National or to record their own intimate and characterful albums, the latest of which includes choral and folk vocals along with their subtle orchestration. In the UK, Mark Beazley (formerly of Rothko), The North Sea Radio Orchestra and Message To Bears are just a few of the acts blending alternative rock, classical instrumentation, folk and more.
Then there are artists who don't even fit these definitions. Sister act CocoRosie, shortly to release their fourth album, blend ricketty beatboxes, toy instruments and psychedelic atmosphere and play the kooky, jazzy vocals of Bianca Casady against the rarified operatic tones and elegant harp playing of her sister Sierra, who was schooled in the Conservertoire De Paris. Swedish boy-girl duo The Knife, best known for their chilly and edgy electro-pop, have just baffled and delighted fans by releasing a double album of electronic opera based on the theories of Charles Darwin. Mancunian duo Demdike Stare are increasingly making waves with their sampling of avant-classical, obscure soundtracks, global and vintage psychedelic music into spooky dreamscapes. And the Type label is increasingly becoming a haven for one-off outsider composers - Jóhann Jóhannsson, Peter Broderick, Richard Skelton, Sylvain Chauveau and label boss John Xela - each with their own unique take on orchestral music with hints of ambient, drone, soundtracks and even doom metal!
But perhaps the poster boy for this kind of genre freedom is Nico Muhly. The 29-year-old New York-based composer played a show at the Roundhouse in London in January and, clad in glitter makeup and outré outfits, was greeted like a rockstar by the young and diverse audience. He is as at home working for the minimalist composer Philip Glass as he is with Björk, as au fait with 15th century religious music as he is with 21st century electronica. As part of the Iceland-based Bedroom Community collective along with Australian noise musician Ben Frost, Vermont folk singer Sam Amidon and Icelandic ambient producer Valgeir Sigurðsson, Muhly is able to skip fluently between styles and genres as easily as he can shift musical keys, without needing the permission or approval of any establishment, rock or classical. Which is exactly as it should be, right?

Samus returns to SR-388 and becomes infected with the X-Parasite, causing her to crash her ship into a nearby asteroid field. After gaining an immunity to the X-Parasite from the brink of death due to a Metroid vaccine, she is sent to investigate an outbreak on a nearby research station orbiting above the planet.
Little does she know that what she is hunting is also hunting her…
Release Date
The Metroid Fusion Soundtrack supplements the official soundtrack release by including looped versions of all tracks as well as several tracks not included on the album. All tracks were made using the official soundtrack as reference, except for 1, 33, 37, 40, 41, and the extra tracks, which were made using viogsf. Also of note are the extra tracks, which include the music from the E3 2002 demo video and three unused tracks. "Unused 2"sounds as if it might have been intended for use during the Metroid escape sequence, but all tracks are incomplete.
Metroid Fusion is easily one of the most solid soundtracks in the series, building off the orchestral hybrid found in Super Metroid. The score was composed by Minako Hamano in her directorial debut, with assistance by Akira Fujiwara. Despite the limitations of the GBA, Hamano was able to utilize some amazing samples, as in the jungle drums of "Sector 2 (TRO) Tropical Area", which also uses chiptune square waves that tie the soundtrack back to Metroid II.
Fusion's booming main themes are "Sector 1 (SRX) SR388 Simulation Area", which also plays in the introduction, and "Sector 3 Restore the Cooling Unit Timer Mission", which also plays on the road to Neo Ridley. Metroid Fusion underscores the rule that the crown jewel of the series' music is the area themes. Each BSL sector oozes atmosphere, particularly "Sector 4 (AQA) Water Level Control Area", "Sector 3 (PYR) High Temperature Area", and Sector 4 (AQA) Underwater Area". One downside is "Final Orders" plays through the entire final sequence of the game, which gets old if you're searching for that last missile pack. There are also some good boss tracks such as "VS. Ishtar/Serris, Gedu/Yakuza", but many contain a weird "parasitic" sound, as with the classic "VS. Neo Ridley".
Fusion is unique in that it contains a large number of "Environmental Sounds" for dialogue sequences, which feel like a cinematic drama or text adventure similar to Nintendo's Famicom Tantei Club series - perhaps an influence from director Yoshio Sakamoto. In addition, several tracks, such as "VS. Marukara/Arachnus" and "Sector 6 (NOC) Dark Area" sound similar to the soundtrack to EarthBound/Mother 2.
The Metroid Prime & Fusion Soundtrack contains one arranged track, but not all tracks loop. As of August 2011, the album is out of print. It is supplemented by the Metroid Fusion Original Soundtrack listed below.
After beating the game once on any difficulty, you unlock a Gallery. As you beat the game multiple times and unlock the other endings, they are automatically added to your Gallery. Upon first unlocking, the Gallery comes with your ending and these two bonus images.
Metroid Fusion has 10 (count 'em, ten!) different endings. Sadly, half of them were exclusive to Japan, but if you connect your GBA with Fusion to another GBA with Metroid: Zero Mission by using a trusty link-cable, you can unlock them in the gallery. Reqs for the endings go as such:
Note: The following endings are unlocked in the Japanese version by meeting the requisites in hard mode.
Japan-Exclusive Endings
These endings are Japan-Exclusive, and adhere very closely to the Metroid manga.
Note: Besides the best ending, the following endings are unlocked when meeting these requisites in normal mode.

I look forward to reading an update on how you like it! I bought one once and was very unimpressed - but from everything I've read on other blogs, it seems to be a question of luck whether you get a good one or a bad one!ReplyDelete
:O OH my gosh - kabocha is the BEST squash there is!! I found it a few months ago, and I now make special trips to Waitrose JUST for it! It's soooo good :) Don't peel it either - roasted, the skin is lovely too :)ReplyDelete
I've not been able to find any sadly. I checked on the Ocado website earlier but they don't have them - booooooo!ReplyDelete

Thanks I'll try skin on!ReplyDelete
- stelladoesblogging19 February 2010 at 09:56
Yeah I noticed some talk of 'bad' kabocha's the other day - fingers crossed I get a good pair!ReplyDelete
- stelladoesblogging19 February 2010 at 09:58
Aw boo! We don't have any Waitrose anywhere close to home and Ocado don't deliver in Scotland. You know, becuse we're so remote and far away and you would just never get those delivery vehicles up those dirt tracks we have all through Scotland...ReplyDelete

Hi all,
I'm working using suggested clamp value, and sometimes have to divide it by about 100 or more. My question is, when working with large images, is this value as acurate as working with small ones, using only 10 seconds of warming?

The first beets my daughter gave us from her husbands' veggie garden were lovely..delicious..and cute:)Above..
But the last batch..they were the size of small grapefruits..those are the ones I used for my roasted beet quinoa salad~
So good..
I am definitely growing his beets next summer..his;)
The recipe is a cinch..cook your quinoa perfectly..add some diced roasted beets..garlic that roasted with your beets....spring green onions...chopped fresh chives..chopped red peppers..feta..parsley..the juice of the roasted beets..s and p.. some EVOO..and white balsamic vinegar..Top with larger beautiful chunks of those roasted beets..
This is a complete meal for me.
It's a side for Jacques;)
You know the smallest things are the greatest gifts.
My daughters and I email always..we are not phone people..and one lives across the street kittie corner..
as soon as I stopped working I bid the phone adieu..I HATE the phone.
They work..they can sneak an email in here and there..before bed..anecdotes..all kinds of STUFF.
slews of emails.I adore them..pics..etc..
Wednesday morning this was one of my emails from Caroline;
They are the grace in my life.
And I am so very grateful for them.
The light is so different ..the mornings are cool,dappled heavy shade everywhere,the trees across the street are turning,they seem to turn where the East sun hits them first..taking photos.. the sun is so harsh..everything is still too green and brown ..that old look..
I've started afternoon tea again even though it is so mild and sunny,fall makes me do that..and the music is not being played as much outdoors..
it's mostly indoors..as I type this entry..Rod Stewart is singing...I can only give you love that lasts forever..I still enjoy his songs and music..
...and a hand to hold when leaves begin to fall..
All time favorite fall song..Nat King Cole..Autumn Leaves..my mom's favorite.
Fall is very nostalgic for me,I think it's beauty just brings out every emotion we have.Stunning splendour.Gorgeousness .
I started preparing my Garlic planting..see the gloves? Raffia?Stakes?Shears?
I had bought a gift a few years back for an occasion that was canceled..a pale yellow metal bucket filled with even knee pads..and an apron..the occasion never happened..and I kept it..all shrink wrapped from Chapters/Indigo thinking maybe another occasion would happen and the gift would again be appropriate..it never happened.
I unwrapped it.
My garden is shocked to see new things.
Usually I find clippers and scissors and shears and hand rakes and trowels all old and worn..lost in a bed here or there.
Why was I saving it?
We have also been relentlessly dropping our everyday utensils(for years!!) on the floors clearing the table..they are bottom heavy and just slide off the plates.
I was saving the bees..for what?
No more.
The others are gone..and the bees are out.
See ..fall is the new year..a new leaf;)
André Gagnon is a QC artist..AMAZING..all instrumental..a client.. maybe 30 yrs ago got me hooked..Greg.
André Gagnon has many CDs ..over the years I think we have picked up 5.Love them all..
Henri Salvador, a client who also became a friend ..Robert..got me hooked..all French..OMgosh the songs are just so pretty.Henri also..we have a few of his CD's..
Richard Séguin is also a QC talent..I went to a show of his..and bought the CD which he autographed..
Stacey Kent..adorable..again from Robert..she is from here too..
So nice to find music you love..
Listen..to fall.
Bon weekend~

Nothing screams "The Mayans will be proven wrong this year!" quite like watching a young man swing from the rafters after hanging himself in a very loose adaptation of Macbeth, but for fans of the interactive production Sleep No More, there was no better way to ring in 2012. After getting an invitation from the Thane himself asking for our attendance a special gold and silver party at the McKittrick Hotel–where Sleep No More has been in residence since March with co-production companies PunchDrunk and Emursive–we arrived up not knowing quite what to expect.
Would we be allowed to remove our Eyes Wide Shut Italian Renaissance-style masks and talk after midnight, or, going with the show's traditional rule, would we be forced into an anonymous silent cheer when the countdown reached zero?
We shouldn't have worried: Emursive and Punchdrunk have done nothing except usurp the expected, and when the audience was corralled into the ballroom at 11 p.m., it wasn't just Macbeth's body that dropped: suddenly, the drapery from one wall descended, revealing a fully-stocked open bar. A strange, Zoolander-ish DJ appeared from one of the box seats, piping in DJ-remixes of dancehall music…1920's dancehall, that is. (Anyone looking for a dubstep version of ragtime classics should look into hiring this gentleman for their next event; he was marvelous.) It was a full fantasy played out on three levels of the hotel: besides the ballroom, bars were open in the faux-lobby "scene" room and in the cabaret that serves as the entrance to the show. Neat trick, not having to pay $8 for a drink (as the usual scotch and soda in the cash-only bar in caberet will cost you).
And perhaps this was just something we missed during our first visit to the McKittrick, but did Sleep No More always have a hard candy emporium room, or was that just a special little kickback to the guests who paid $125 a ticket to come to the pre-show? (Those wanting entrance at 12:30 could make it for only $100…only $20 over regular admission price, but without the cost of having to be silent for three hours.) The males in our company had a delightful time stuffing their pockets full of hard licorice sweets, while the ladies–sans clothing holes to hoard things in–had to suffice by shoving a bunch of old mints into their cheeks and saving them for later; like chipmunks expecting a cold front.
Midnight was count down by cast members dressed up as different numbers, and when a working clock that read "Happy New Year" reached its final "r," several peacocked dancers in shimmering skivvies and flesh-colored leotards jumped up on what was previously the banquet table and proceeded to can-can. We finagled our way into the VIP lounge, where we shared a whiskey with the father-in-law of one of the producers, who, much like another tragic Shakespearean king, was affectionately showing off his three daughters to friends and close relations.
Before the bell struck twelve, we overheard the performer who had played our Macbeth engaging friends by dropping his sulking leer for a more fay posture, while the bartenders retained their English brogue throughout the course of the evening. (Now we know why none of the characters in the show talk…it would totally ruin the effect!)
As we were wished a solicitous New Year's Eve by a young woman serving drinks with a Scottish lilt, we tried to decipher whether her accent was real, or, like so many other things in Sleep No More, a pure fabrication. Either way, we agreed, it had the desired effect of keeping us in the realm of the source material for the rest of the evening…Shakespeare by way of Hitchcock; the perfect dreaded doomsday fantasy to ring in the end of days.

Australia on the brink despite India collapse
India overcame a tail-end collapse to remain in control of the second Test against Australia in Hyderabad.
The hosts lost five wickets for just 19 runs as they were all out for 503, 266 runs ahead with Cheteshwar Pujara topscoring with 204.
However, Ravichandran Ashwin claimed the wickets of David Warner and Phil Hughes - both playing poor shots - as Australia finished the day on 74 for two and struggling to avoid a second successive defeat on a crumbling pitch.
Glenn Maxwell was the pick of the Australia bowlers, taking four for 127 on debut.
The hosts were put in a position of strength thanks largely to Pujara's impressive partnership of 370 with Murali Vijay.
Maxwell claimed his first Test wicket to remove the…

"If you're worried about where you might go to the toilet during the Melbourne to Warrnambool, then perhaps this race isn't for you".
One of only 13 women to have completed the second oldest and what may arguably be considered Australia's toughest one day road race, Nadine O'Connor doesn't mince words when it comes to advice about the iconic event. The only woman to compete in the race in 2012, Nadine spent nine months preparing specifically for the big day.
The Marketing Manager for Rapha Aus/NZ sat down with us over a couple of choc/raspberry brownies (we'll be back for more of those, by the way) to share her experience with us.
Why the Melbourne to Warrnambool?
I grew up on the Bellarine Peninsula and every year there was a sense of excitement and anticipation as the race drew near. It was part of my growing up – I'd be on the sidelines year in, year out, watching cyclists prepare for the race. I'd see them train and compete in the pouring rain, hail, and battle the wind. More often than not it would be a cross or block head wind (seemingly never a tail wind) and often strong enough to knock riders from their bikes. I had several friends who had conquered the Melbourne to Warrny and I became intrigued by their stories of the challenge and how the race could be so very different from one year to the next. I guess it seemed to me to have an almost mythical status that just drew me to consider attempting it.

How did you prepare for it?
I was very fortunate to have two friends who mentored me just for this race. Steven Draper of Hendry Cycles and Ridewiser's Rob Crowe have competed and completed several Melbourne to Warrnambools. They both took me under their wing and gave me invaluable advice and direction. I remember sitting down with Rob, and in his own unique and generous way, he recounted and shared his experiences, particularly from the 1993 race where he finished in 2nd place to Dean Woods, the Olympic gold medallist.
Rob's words still resonate with me today; "you have to look at this as a two-year campaign. The first year is about trying to finish and not being daunted by the ride. It's about taking away a bucket load of learning". He was absolutely spot-on. You have to look at the Melbourne to Warrnambool as at least a two-year plan. It's too big a day and there are too many variables for it to be smooth sailing. He also encouraged me to respect the race. In his words "it's not a Gran Fondo, it's the second oldest race in the world following Liege–Bastogne-Liege. It's hard to race and finish within time so if you get your medal it will be well earned."

As for the training itself, I was probably putting in about 400km a week. But they were 400 very diverse kms in the saddle. I trained for endurance and speed with many motopacing and hills sessions. Don't be under any illusion that this course sf flat. While it's clearly an endurance event, in Rob's words again "it's like riding an A grade crit, followed by a men's road race and then another A grade crit". That's really an apt way to describe it, as it's full gas for just under 300km, and you have to train for every kind of road riding because the day can throw anything at you.
You talk about year one being all about learning. So what were the key lessons you feel might be helpful to those taking on the race for the first time this year?
The pace is high. In preparation I raced several handicaps against the men. I wanted to experience the close quarter bump-and-tussle that you don't get in the women's racing. It's more intense and even physical. Gender doesn't come into it on the day. It's raced on merit, not reputation and there's no quarter given. Just before the second feed zone there was a large crash. I wasn't involved but I had to come to a virtual stop at the bottom of a hill and chase back on. As the day progressed I had to deal with the effects of fatigue. The pace is high, especially through the corners where the lead riders use the wind to attack. The feed-stations are chaotic, like rush hour at Flinders Street station, it' shoulder-to-shoulder with everyone vying for the perfect position to grab their musette. That was one of the key lessons, you never have the right amount of food. The bag either has too much or not quite what you feel you need. So you pack them with everything and discard what you don't need. Unless you're on a pro team with a support car, you must only take food in the designated zones or risk disqualification. It may sound trivial in the scheme of things but I'd encourage anyone racing for the first time to practice being handed a musette by your handler, do it at speed and get used to swinging that weight over your shoulder without losing control of your bike. On the day you'll have to do this three or four times whilst riding at 40kph and not getting dropped in the process.

I think in the latter stages of the race you might consider smaller bidons (less weight) and carry plenty of food from the start.
I also discovered that my body craved real food. I had trained on bars and gels but on the day itself I had this desire for proper food only. Incredibly, on the eve of the race someone suggested I pack a toastie and so on a bit of a whim I made a few ham and cheese toasties and ended up absolutely devouring them (cold, obviously) during the ride.
I discovered some things about me as well. I'd already achieved several goals in ocean swimming and endurance Triathlon, both of which were tough enough. But the Warny is different. From the whole experience I learned that I really do have the mental toughness to take on and get through something like this. What I mean is that the race requires much more commitment than simply showing up on the day.
I think if you heed Rob's words, and respect the race by preparing absolutely the best you can, then you'll be on the starting line having ridden through the dark and damp of the Melbourne winter. You'll have endured pouring rain, ice cold and dark early morning starts and you'll have sucked it all up to get yourself ready. If you stand on that start line in the knowledge that you cut corners and didn't do everything possible to prepare yourself then it's an insult to the other riders and to the race itself. You just never know what Mother Nature may throw at you on the day. I remember the first recce run of the course I did. It was blowing a gale, I was soaked through from the rain and cold and by the time I got to Inverleigh (the first feed zone) I'd had enough. It was a tough day but helped me prep far more than any fair weather training session.

Is this one of your greatest achievements in life?
I've feel very fortunate to have competed for Australia in netball. Representing your country without a doubt is the highest honour I feel you can ever experience as a sports person… But there's nothing that I've experienced to come close to emotion I felt; that sense of achievement, knowing I set a goal and earned it, when I crossed the line in Warrnambool.
You've taken a few female cyclists under your wing as they embark on the 100th year of the Melbourne to Warrnambool. What's the one bit of advice you've shared with them all?
In the words of Rob Crowe, it's not a Gran Fondo. If you make it to the line then don't expect to be treated any different from all the others around you. Do the hard yards in training. In that brief moment before the starter fires the gun, know you are prepared the very best you can be by having given it 100%. I tell them there's no point sugar coating it, you're going to start with A-grade men, it's going to be fast and hard. You need to be every bit as serious as they are on the day. Have respect for all the competitors, volunteers and marshals, be smart, find a good position and a strong wheel to follow.
