Baghdad (CNN) -- Violence in Iraq killed 20 people and injured 37 on Monday, authorities said.
In Khan Bani Saad, a city in the eastern Diyala Province, two roadside bombs exploded, killing 10 and wounding two, officials with the Iraqi Interior Ministry said. The first blast occurred outside a house. The second blast hit as residents gathered to help people wounded in the initial attack.
Separately, an Iraqi police officer was killed and his driver critically wounded Monday when a sticky bomb attached to his car exploded in a northeast Baghdad neighborhood, the ministry officials said.
In Falluja, the explosions of a roadside bomb and two car bombs killed six and wounded 23, police said. First a bomb in a trash container exploded. It caused no casualties but attracted security forces and a bomb-disposal team, police said. Then a parked car exploded, killing and wounding several, police said. A third bomb exploded later, killing and injuring more people, police said.
At least three Iraqi security forces were among the dead in central Falluja. Local authorities imposed a full curfew on pedestrians and vehicles in the Falluja's al-Andulus neighborhood, where the explosions occurred.
Meanwhile, in southeastern Baghdad, a roadside bomb explosion in a commercial area killed three civilians and wounded 11 others, officials at the Iraqi Interior Ministry said.
One person was seriously hurt in another explosion in central Baghdad.
Government figures show the death toll in Iraqi violence has been rising. In March, 247 Iraqis were killed, up from 197 people in February. Another 370 people were wounded in March.
Overall, violence in Iraq has dropped dramatically since the peak of the sectarian violence between 2005 and 2007, but mortar attacks, bombs and assassinations are still commonplace.
The latest wave of violence in the country, especially in the past two weeks, has raised questions over the ability of Iraqi security forces to protect the country as U.S. troops plan to leave Iraq.
American troops are scheduled to depart from Iraq by year's end under a bilateral agreement between the Iraqi government and the United States.
But if violence increases and instability persists, it is possible both countries could agree to keep some U.S. troops in Iraq, which now has about 47,000 American soldiers. The figure is down from a high of 171,000 in 2003.
Kurdish lawmaker Mahmoud Othman told CNN there is a possibility that Iraqi government officials could ask the U.S government to keep some troops in Iraq beyond 2011.
"There is a possibility, you can't exclude it, but till now the government says that they will not ask for it and, you know, the U.S. government, they think it's necessary ... but they don't want themselves to ask for it because if they ask for it will affect (President Barack) Obama's position," Othman said.
"So they (U.S. officials) ask the Iraqis to ask for it," he added. "The Iraqis are reluctant because of different reasons, internal and external reasons."
U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates recently made an unannounced visit to Iraq and discussed American troop presence with top officials, including Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki.
"My message to them was if there is to be a presence or they still need help, we are open to that possibility. But they have to ask, and time is running out in Washington because we have a lot going on around the world and we've got to make some decisions," Gates said.
"It obviously would be a presence that's a fraction of the size of the one we have here now. But it's really up to the Iraqis at this point." he added.

Renee Rosnes: Art & Soul
The pianist's appreciation for lyrical ballads is represented through Gordon Jenkins' "Goodbye," Egberto Gismonti's dreamy "Sanfona," Duke Ellington's "Fleurette Africaine" and the lovely "Lazy Afternoon." For the latter, Dianne Reeves sings in her unique manner, sometimes offering lyrics and sometimes adding wordless vocals that bare her soul. From lush ballads to a hurried and exciting scene, Reeves uses a vocalese tactic to sing Wayne Shorter's classic "Footprints." While the lyric's message is washed away by the arrangement's rhythmic motion, more instrumental features reveal that Reeves and Rosnes share a simpatico view of the piece. The leader's dedication to pianist Steve Kuhn plays harmonic tricks on an exciting "Romp," during which each member of the trio takes an extended solo. Derived from the Charlie Parker school of modern jazz and bridging some fifty years of development, Rosnes' recommended album lives up to its title.
Track Listing: Blues Connotation; With a Little Help from my Friends; Goodbye; Ancient Footprints; Fleurette Africaine; Romp; Lazy Afternoon; Little Spirit; Sanfona; Children
Personnel: Renee Rosnes- piano; Scott Colley- double bass; Billy Drummond- drums; Dianne Reeves- vocals on "Ancient Footprints" and "Lazy Afternoon;" Richard Bona- percussion on "Ancient Footprints" and "Fleurette Africaine."

Alexander Chapman CAMPBELL (b. 1988)
Ten Sketches of Light:First Light [2:37]; Light in the Morning
[4:42]; Light through the Day [2:39]; Light on the River [3:45]; Light
on the Sea [7:19]; Light on the Clouds [4:09]; Land and the Breeze [3:17];
Light on the Fields [4:43]; Light in the Storm [2:39]; Light in the
End [4:28]
Alexander Chapman Campbell (piano)
rec. St George's, Bristol, October 2012.
I had been listening to Sorabji a few minutes before
this CD arrived on the doorstep. Playing the Campbell CD an hour or
so later provided the greatest possible contrast. Sorabji's music
is overburdened with sheer technical complexity. He made use of polyrhythms,
he juxtaposed tonal and atonal elements, he appealed to a wide range
of historical formal devices and created his own. His music is highly
structured, involved and technically problematic. No one has followed
in his footsteps: it is hard to find his precursors and his successors.
Alexander Chapman Campbell's music, on the other hand is simple,
approachable and technically straightforward. I do not know, but I imagine,
that he has used the piano styles of Ludovico Einaudi and Phamie
Gow as exemplars. His is a post-minimalist style that crosses over into
the world of 'pop'.
The Ten Sketches of Light were written over a number of years.
In their present form they are not just individual pieces that can be
excerpted: they demand to be played together, they form a whole. It
is one work divided into ten movements. Campbell declares that the names
of the individual tracks are of 'limited importance': he
wanted to give the listener 'something to hold onto'. This
is not impressionistic or programme music: each episode could just as
easily been entitled 'Movement 1' or 'Study 5'.
I believe that the present title is a good choice: it certainly makes
the disc more marketable and liable to be played on Classic FM. The
pianism is largely based on repeated figures, subtle changes of melodic
pattern and wide-ranging arpeggiated passages. There is an improvisatory
feel to much of this music.
The presentation of the CD is problematic. On the positive side, the
sound quality is excellent. Campbell's playing is both confident
and expressive. The CD cover is illustrated with an attractive drawing
by the composer/pianist of himself playing music in a field with the
breeze blowing leaves from the tree. However there is a down side. Firstly,
this is a soft cover gate-fold CD with a plastic insert. Already the
cardboard on my copy has begun to show signs of wear. Secondly, only
four paragraphs of text explain the genesis of this work. Apart from
a single sentence there is no biographical detail about the composer.
I guess he expects the listener to look him up on the Internet. Thirdly
there is no date given for this work. I assume that it is fairly recent.
The notes imply that the ten pieces were assembled from a portfolio
of compositions. This is information that the serious listener/reviewer
needs. Lastly, the price of this CD is £7.99: a mere 40 minutes
of music is a little mean. Naxos often push toward 80 minutes at a cheaper
price. Is there no other work he could have presented here?
That said, this is attractive music that will appeal to enthusiasts
of Einaudi and Gow. Nevertheless I hope that Alexander Chapman Campbell
will continue to write music and will explore far beyond what may be
regarded 'popular'.

What is "The Numis Network?"
JosephDiego DiaMante, What is "The Numis Network?"
The Numis Network Something Different.
So, you're into the network marketing business for quite some time now. What if, instead of offering consumable goods or services, you instead offer gold or silver coins and actually get one for yourself each month? Rather than have a full stock of wellness juice, vitamins, diet pills or what have you products in your home, why not have a stock of "assets" which appreciates in time. This is what Numis Network is all about. With the value of U.S. dollar dramatically dropping, notice how the value of gold and silver is rising. Due to the staggering financial and economic crisis made by the handling of the government of massive corporate bailouts, the sky-high increase in taxes and gloomy job market to name a few, people are swarming in an industry where an average person has a shot in building residual income by growing a profitable but low cost home based business. With Numis Network it allows you to purchase U.S. gold and silver collectible coins with monetary equivalent but valued much higher than the rate of U.S. dollar today. This actually means storing up with a built-in value of wealth for the future.
What Else Does The Numis Network Offer?
Numis Network not only offers an individual to be financially intelligent but the opportunity of a home business that can build a massive downline and at the same time create a secured financial future. The idea of selling numismatic coins as investments has created enthusiasm among entrepreneurs making it a major force in the industry. The idea is not to focus on promoting the product (although it is in demand), but to offer the value of financial security from joining the business.
Numis Network provides new recruits several tools to assist them in earning money from their home based business in a faster phase compared to other businesses. Aside from earning commissions and bonuses, they also have the option of joining the Silver Coin of the Month club where they teach how to build up their assets. There's more, Numis Network has a 5 year buyback guarantee. Say what??? The 5 year buyback guarantee uniquely allows people of having the no risk way of accumulating their assets. Members of Numis Network Silver Premiere Club gets a government issued silver asset each month, a certified and graded asset that IF after 5 years they are not happy with the coin or the need for some cash turns up, they can sell back to the company the coins 5 years after being purchased.
Enrollments in online home business such as Numis Network is growing astoundingly as people globally recognize that there is an opportunity beyond the corporate world to gain multiple income streams and that there is more leverage in networking with others via online tools and marketing strategies to build global businesses. More white collared professionals realize that they can leverage their skill sets and networks to advance financially, one thing they will never achieve inside of a corporate cubicle.
You may ask, is it the right timing for Numis Network? Yes, it is! The timings so right now that the economy is low and precious metals are high. Here's another good thing, it has no competition. No other networking business offers an opportunity like this. No complicated inventory, just collecting coins and storing up assets. It allows an entrepreneur to work freely with his business both online and offline. The compensation plan's so great the way the founders designed it by taking the best from MLM companies they boosted financially.
An enthusiastic entrepreneur should look at what Numis Network has to offer. Learn about the company and decide if want to be a part of Numis. If you're seriously aiming for a bright horizon, think of Numis' as a golden investment towards your future.

As suggested by the title right there *points up* and right there *points down", this is an alternate opening for Cat McDonald's Sirens story, "Notefisher" 🙂
Notefisher Alt Opening
Cat McDonald
Terra wiggled back into the rain-wet couch as the smells of wood smoke and palo santo incense whirled around her. When she felt her fingers penetrate her cup of cocoa like tree roots, winding through it and dragging its sweetness into her, she figured the C-Sharp she'd taken was kicking in, so she settled in to enjoy it.
Their timing was good. A chillstep act had taken the main stage while she and Jordan had been up getting cocoa, so she could just relax into the sound, wait for her guide, and find out where the bass intended to take her.
Jordan turned around to look up at her from his spot on the ground. He seemed to like sitting right against the earth; he settled in the grass every chance he got, like a preschooler or a true festival kid. He wasn't, of course; he didn't seem to know anyone, always looked a little confused when he heard a new music take the stage, and had worn a plain red t-shirt. It was obviously his first festival, so he needed a guide, and Terra's campmate had abandoned her to pursue a DJ anyway, so they'd become friends.
Right now, all she knew about him was that he was new to this, that he liked drum and bass more than house, and that he couldn't keep himself from staring at dancers.
"How are you doing?"
He stared at her for a moment or two, black-brown eyes shining in the reflected firelight, seeming to change shape as she struggled to keep a handle on her perceptions. The stage went red as a more traditional dubstep took the stage from her ambient chillstep.
"I'm fine," she thought she heard him say as he turned back to face the fire, entranced by something only he could see. Terra followed his gaze as a ribbon of wood smoke wriggled between the stage's lasers toward her.
The scent of incense reached out to caress her face, and when she glanced down she saw a transparent gray-blue hand cradling her. Red and orange stage lights flickered inside the hand and arm like lightning strikes, contained in the body of the muse she'd grown to love.
A pleasant humming in her ear skirted just under the music, in awkward, unpracticed harmony with the deep, booming music, and a smoky breeze tickled at her left ear. Terra turned to see a familiar smile rippling through the air, wavering but brilliant like treasure at the bottom of a clear pond. The embers of the fire glittered in the muse's eyes, and when she opened her mouth to speak, Terra felt her ears tingle.
Behind the head and torso of a stately, dignified older woman, the body of a great rainbow-colored serpent glittered in twisted ribbons that bumped and writhed along the waveforms of the music like a fast-moving river. Every time Terra got a fix on one of her colors, the peerless aquamarine just behind her shoulder, it changed and the entire body had moved away on the wind to be discovered anew. Now, the journey could begin.
Rather than staring straight at Terra, her sparkling eyes stared down at the ground in front of the couch, where Jordan stared out into the distance after his own muse.
A high-pitched squeal in her ear pulled Terra's focus back to the muse's face, to the way her brows knit together, to the deep darkness that had settled in behind the sparks in her eyes. She brought her transparent hands together in front of her and cupped them in the air as if cradling something very delicate.
Terra reached out to take those hands, and felt nothing even though she saw them return her grasp.
"I understand. I'll look out for him," Terra said, and although the darkness never left the muse's eyes, she smiled.
Then, as always, the world started to ripple around them as the muse pulled Terra forward into her dark, uncertain, watery world.
"I trust you," Terra heard herself say out loud before falling forward to find out where the trip led next.
Cat McDonald lives in an eighth-floor apartment in Edmonton with a baby tortoise and at least a dozen tarot decks. She's studying Investigations at Macewan and Tarot at Northern Star college, and makes better choices now than she did five years ago. Eli is two years old and loves strawberries.

Zwelethu Machepha was born in 1990 at Baragwanath Hospital, Johannesburg. He completed his matric at Bracken High, Alberton in 2007. Post school he joined art classes held in the Johannesburg central library under Petru Viljoen, Rhett and Blessing Ngobeni.
In 2009 he studied a computer course in MS office at the CIDA city campus. In 2009 Zwelethu worked for Verimark selling products for the company. In the same year Zwelethu participated in numerous art classes held at the Joburg Art Gallery at the education centre under Nolan Stevens and William Stewart. Later that year he had his first group show. In 2010 Zwelethu joined Artist Proof Studio to study printmaking.
Zwelethu has participated in a numerous group shows since joining APS. In 2010 he participated in an exhibition at Arts on Main together with Right on The Rim and Artist Proof Studio entitled Legends of Culture. In 2011 he participated in a group show entitled Active Citizenship- A Journey through Screen-printing which was part of a master's project curated by Cloudia Hartwig. In 2012 Zwelethu was involved in the Coming of Age exhibition under the Emerging Impressions show curated by Tiffany Mentoor at the Johannesburg Art Gallery, and again a month later at a show in Braamfontein at Velo entitled BUY POP.
Zwelethu has featured in various other projects such as the ABSA L'Atelier viral video (hypnosis) and was a featured artist in a JHB live cover story. Zwelethu was also invited to exhibit in a show entitled As seen on TV at the Sibisi Art Gallery in Melrose Arch, and a month later at the Sharon Simpson annual printmaking show.
Zwelethu is currently working as an intern at APS to the screen-print unit where he has been assisting in the printing of artworks for artists such as William Kentridge, Nelson Makamo, Bevan De Wet, Stephan Erasmus and Bambo Sibiya.
I suppose above all, I am interested in discovering the ability as an artist to reflect on the experiences of personal and cultural representation of the self.
Generally I am conscious of this as I work; I seek to achieve several changes in my practice which implies the belief that through the conversion of energy, something valid may result.
My intention is to raise a question of what will emerge. For some of us whose intellectual, social and other desires are farsighted, experimentation is a necessary tool for the knowledge of our ambition and other sources and our goals and possibilities can then be constantly expressed in this way.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. - The Sacramento State men's soccer team hits the road as they continue conference play for the 2017 season. The team will head to sunny southern California where they will take on the UC Riverside Highlanders (10/5) and the Cal State Fullerton Titans (10/7).
Scouting UC Riverside (0-9, 0-2 Big West)
The road trip through southern California starts with a Thursday night match against the winless UC Riverside Highlanders. The Hornets and Highlanders faced each other twice last season, both times at Hornet Field, splitting the series. Sacramento State dropped the first match 2-0 while taking the second 2-1. The last time the Hornets traveled to Riverside, they fell to the Highlanders 3-1.
All-time, the Hornets are just 4-6-3 against UC Riverside. In the last five matches, the Highlanders have dominated the Hornets to the tune of 4-1. In addition, the Hornets have never won in Riverside (0-3-2).
UC Riverside enters play Thursday with a 0-9 record, their worst start to a season in the last 20 years. Among their nine losses is a hard-fought loss on the road to the then-ranked #17 Omaha Mavericks, as well as close losses on the road to other top-100 teams like Loyola Marymount (2-1), Gonzaga (1-0), and GCU (5-4).
Offensively, they are led by sophomore forward Anthony Lopez, whose 21 shots taken are tied for fourth most in the conference. As a team, however, they rank near the bottom in almost every offensive category, including shots, (6th), points (8th), goals (8th, and assists (8th).

Scouting Cal State Fullerton (6-4-1, 1-1-0 Big West)
The Hornets then take on the Cal State Fullerton Titans in a Saturday night match at Fullerton's Titan Stadium. Sacramento State defeated Cal State Fullerton in their only matchup last season, winning 1-0 at Hornet Field.
All-time, the Hornets are 3-4 against the Titans. All three of those wins have come at home, however, and Sacramento State is winless in four trips to Cal State Fullerton.
The Titans enter play Thursday with a 6-4-1 record (they are scheduled to host UC Davis Thursday before facing Sacramento State on Saturday) and are 1-1 in conference. They have a notable win over division rival Cal Poly, 1-0 at Cal Poly. They dropped a home match 2-0 to Utah Valley, a team that Sacramento State beat on the road 2-1.
The Titans are middle-of-the-pack in terms of offensive production, but do lead the conference in shutouts with five. Three of those shutouts belong to sophomore keeper Paul-Andre Guerin while the other two are sophomore keeper Alfredo Cortez's.
On the offensive side of the ball, Ross McPhie leads the squad with five goals this season. That number is tied for second in the Big West while his 11 points are tied for third.

Bicentennial Man
Senior keeper James Del Curto surpassed the 200 save mark this past weekend, making a combined 11 saves against CSUN and UC Irvine. Del Curto now has 210 career saves, making him just the fifth ever Hornet to pass the 200 mark in program history. Overall, he ranks fifth in program history, 12 behind Gary Davis (1992-95).
The program record is held by current assistant coach Matt McDougall, who recorded 306 saves from 2002-2005.
Goalkeeper Saves - Career
1. Matt McDougall (2002-05) - 306
2. Cesar Castillo (2010-13) - 243
3. Bryan Oliver (2008-12) - 238
4. Gary Davis (1992-95) - 222
5. James Del Curto (2013-pres.) - 210
Take A Shot
The Hornets took a season-high 16 shots in their 3-3 draw with UC Irvine this past Sunday. For the season, the team is averaging 10.2 shots per game.
State of the Conference
Sacramento State's 1-0-1 record heading into this weekend is good for second in the Big West North division (tied with UC Davis). UC Santa Barbara leads the North division and is the only 2-0 team in the conference. Sacramento State, UC Davis, and UC Santa Barbara, all north division teams, are the only undefeated teams in the conference.
Twice As Nice
Sophomore forward Christian Webb scored two goals in the Hornets' 3-3 draw against UC Irvine last weekend, his first two-goal game of the season. Webb's four goals this year lead the team while he is tied with Justin Bedig for the team-lead with eight points.
Webb and Bedig are the only two players with two goals in the same game this season. Bedig scored two in a 4-3 win over Northern Illinois in Orem, Utah.
Matt Carnefix scored his first game-winning goal of the season in the team's 1-0 win over CSUN, making him the fifth Hornets player with a game-winner.
Just Score Two
The Hornets have scored two or more goals in five of their 10 games this year. In those five matches, they are 4-0-1. Over the last five seasons, Sacramento State is 20-3-1 when scoring two or more goals.
On the Road Again
Sacramento State is 3-1 away from Hornet Field (2-1 on the road, 1-0 in neutral site). The team is averaging two goals per match away when on the road (four matches, eight goals).
Second Half Surge
The Hornets are outscoring opponents 8-7 in the second half of matches so far this season despite being outshot 59-52. Through 10 games, the Hornets have scored five times in the first half compared to eight in the second.

Using the crop-a-dile, punch a hole in the foam & hard mat in your mat pack, then keep them together with a large hinged ring. I was then thinking of a way to keep them handy, as I usually have a hard time trying to find mine amongst all the other ESSENTIAL craft goodies I own, so ......
... using my trusty crop-a-dile once again, I punched a hole in the side of my ink pad caddy & now will always know exactly where my mat pack is :-)
Above are afew of the fun things camp attendees made using punches. I sourced most of them from the internet at Splitcoast Stampers & here as I'm not clever enough to make them up myself. My friend Trish, however is a clever thing & made the cow up herself!
How cute is the sheep - so much fun to make & everyone loved it!I will be showing you all the other fun projects we made over the next week.

This week-end time pass is just movies and shopping, of course this is my general and routine week -end.
My movies of the week :
- Rock on(Hindi)
I can say one should watch this if believe in FRIENDSHIP.Though all most of the all songs are with Hindi lyrics Rock music dominates the lyrics.So we can ultimately enjoy the music.Those who loves rock music concerts must see this.
- Souryam(Telugu)
Another Gopichand's(Actor- Hero) typical movie. No specials apart from Ali, Krishna Bagavan's Comedy for total 15 to 2o Min's . Anushka helped to entertain people just only before intervel. Planning to watch for Anushka ? I can say no need to go. you can just enjoy trailers.
- Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay(English)
Won "Golden Trailer" for in Best Comedy TV Spot For "Campaign". It's a adventures comedy movie for adults. Story of two friends and room mates ; Harold looks like Chinese and kumar Patel a typical Indian in US for his studies. The very introduction scene between Harold and Kumar in shower was quite witty. The dialogues were good.Scenes like their travel on road, jumping out from plane, landing in living-room of President George W. Bush printed their funny snaps in my mind. Overall move is funny and anybody can enjoy this.
- Saroja(Telugu)
Nothing great in this movie. To be frank there are no thrills. Nikhita item song is good.
Apart form movies - playing cards and shopping in forum are just part of this week end mania.

|Happy Felix!
If you want to get all teary-eyed and goosebumpy, Lookout Landing posted the press conference video for those of us who were either asleep because we work nights or were at work because they're normal.
The year to year breakdown looks something like this:
2013: $19 million
2014: $22 million
2015: $24 million
2016: $25 million
2017: $26 million
2018: $26 million
2019: $27 million
Between the annual salary and a $6 million signing bonus, the total comes to $175 million over 7 years. That's a lot of money and a lot of years, but for a pitcher who is one of the few aces in the major leagues. Not only that, but for a guy who actually wants to stay with Seattle his whole career. What the Seattle Mariners have done to deserve such loyalty from a player of his caliber, I have no idea, but I think now would be a good time to tell him he really did sign with the 2013 Seattle Mariners and not the 2001 Seattle Mariners.
But wait, there's more! Everybody heard about the elbow "issue" that isn't really an issue pop up, which may have delayed the signing for a day or two. If the issue was a major concern, I don't see the Mariners signing Felix for 7 years. During the physical, it's possible the doctors who were looking at the MRI results saw some normal wear and tear and decided a little protection for the club was in order. Actually, I doubt the doctors care whether or not the club decides to get protection written into the contract. I assume they relayed their concerns and because the internet is the internet, an elbow issue became something for all Mariner fans to have a collective heart attack over.
In the time leading up to the official signing, there was language placed in the contract to protect the Mariners in the event of a catastrophic failure of some specific elbow injury. It's important to note that the protection is limited to the elbow in question and not any other injury. Basically, if Felix has to have Tommy John surgery, Seattle is protected. If he tears a rotator cuff, Seattle is pretty much screwed.
According to Mr. Rosenthal:
The only downside is that, if that happens, the year that would be considered a make-up year, Felix would be 34 years old. I'm not saying it's a crappy provision, just that it wouldn't be ideal. Of course, Felix having to go under the knife for anything wouldn't be ideal either. No matter how you look at it though, this was a deal to keep Felix in a Seattle Mariners uniform for the prime of his career and on the other side of that peak. I don't doubt that he'll get another extension in the years to come, keeping him in Seattle for his entire career. Some may argue that you'd think he would have given the Mariners a home team discount. I'd argue that by staying, he already has. If you've watched the last few seasons, having any player want to stay in Seattle, let alone a player of Felix's caliber, is unheard of and could be considered miraculous.
Also in the contract is full no-trade protection for Felix. None of this block of 10 teams to try and get more money if he's traded to them nonsense. Felix wants to stay in Seattle and will for the length of the contract. That doesn't mean he won't waive it at some point in the future, but right now that's a very unlikely scenario. So we should be free of the "Seattle should trade Felix" crowd for at least spring training of this year. Maybe even the first month or two. One thing we know for sure though. Regardless of what anybody else thinks, Felix Hernandez is here to stay because both he and the team wanted it to happen. He has made Seattle his kingdom and the fans rejoice. Long live The King.

Even after graduating from UConn with countless honors and two national championships, Maya Moore continues to win awards. On Monday, the Collegiate Women Sports Awards announced that Moore had won the Honda-Broderick Cup, designating her as the Collegiate Woman Athlete of the Year.
Not only is it the second time Moore has received the honor (she won in 2010, too), but it marks only the second time in 35 years that an athlete has won the Honda-Broderick Cup twice.
Details via the Honda-Broderick Cup press release:
"Moore was selected as the winner of the Honda-Broderick Cup by a voting of nearly 1,000 NCAA member schools and the Board of Directors of the Collegiate Women Sports Awards Program. Previous winners include: basketball superstar Candace Parker (2008), track and field legend Jackie Joyner-Kersee (1985), soccer great Mia Hamm (1994) and volleyball star Misty May (1999). Last year, Maya shared the award in a rare tie with Penn State volleyball player Megan Hodge."
Distinguished names, for sure, but that's the company Moore keeps as one of the best players in the history of women's college basketball.
In related Huskies news, Moore's former college coach, Geno Auriemma, is currently on his way to Poland to scout the final rounds of the European Championships. Auriemma is also the US National Team coach. He'll be back stateside by July 4 and back on the recruiting trail a few days later.
Then, in August, he will take the Huskies on a 10-day tour of Italy and Greece to play at least four exhibition games.
"It's always good to go on a trip like that and it works well in any situation your team is in for the coming season," Auriemma said, according to the Hartford Courant. "It's the perfect time for us to do it. We don't worry about the outcome of the games. It's just great to have the ability to practice for 10 days before the trip."
Not only will it be an opportunity for freshmen Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis, Kia Stokes and Brianna Banks to get used to playing with their new teammates, Caroline Doty can slowly work her way back from injury before the Huskies' season begins in November.
"When Sue Bird came over to Europe with us in 1999, she had missed the majority of her freshman season [with an ACL injury]," Auriemma said. "Her first time playing seriously was that summer and it took her a little bit to get herself to trust the knee. Once she did, she took off. The hope is the same thing happens with Caroline. The atmosphere is non-threatening, no pressure. You just play a little and get your timing and feel back."

Tongue Out & Stone Faced
The cutest: David Beckham scored his first with the Galaxy last night and celebrated by running the pitch with his tongue out and arms apart, a move imitated in the family box by Brooklyn who like most boys, clearly hero worships his pop.
His mother however prefers to keep her elation, if any, bottled inside. The British press are already raggin' on Posh for not making a bigger show of celebration…
But don't they know her at all?
Celebrating requires spontaneous movement which could in turn disrupt the angle at which her bob grazes her chin which then might cause a few stray hairs to get stuck in her lipgloss which would then require her to pull said strand away from lips which of course would result in an imperfect photo and if that's the case…what's the point in living?
Don't they know her at all? I know her. Because I love her.
PS. David's tongue. Yum.

Over time, my cousin, Tracy, has shared her story with me. Let me just say, Tracy's story is phenomenal – just like her. I asked her would she be willing to share it with others on my blog. I am a firm believer, like Good Morning America's host, Robin Roberts says, "Our mess can become our message." Tracy has had to overcome a lot of "mess" over the last few years, but she has never lost hope or faith that her tomorrows will be better than her yesterdays. So, here is my Cousin Tracy's story. May the readers of her journey be as positively touched and helped by her words as I have been.
Tracy English Butler is 41 years old and the married mother of six children. Her children range in age from 18 to 10 (the ten year olds are twins). Tracy says she never envisioned herself as having such a large family. Instead, she thought she would be a full time career woman. But Tracy is the first to say she has no regrets and loves every part of being the mom to her amazing, beautiful family.
As a child, Tracy grew up in an upper middle class neighborhood with two loving parents, Edward and Jean English. She has one sister, Kelly English Quirolo, and a whole host of loving aunts, uncles, and cousins. Tracy and her husband, Mario, have been married for 19 years, and when asked the secret of their long lasting relationship, Tracy says, "Running our household and raising six children has been a task requiring endurance, love, compromise, and understanding."
All of their children are in school full-time and about a year and a half ago, Tracy returned to school herself to get a graduate degree in counseling. Tracy was accepted to a challenging program at her Alma mater, Oakland University in Michigan, and was breezing right along carrying a 3.9 grade point average when all of a sudden she was stopped in her tracks by some devastating news.
Here is the rest of Tracy's story.
Hi, Tracy. Thank you for agreeing to take our private conversations public. I truly believe your story has the ability to change lives. If you don't mind, will you tell my readers what happened to you nearly two years ago that brought you and all of your carefully laid plans for the future to a temporary, screeching halt?
Well, Angela, I found out that I had a brain tumor. The technical name for it is a Meningioma. Ninety plus percent of the time Meningiomas are benign which leads many people to think it is not that serious. Well, it is very serious, as the brain is a very delicate and complicated structure and any type of tumor that is pressing on it is therefore pressing on brain tissue or other delicate structures.
Wow, Tracy. So what were the particulars of the Meningioma you suffered from?
In my case, my Meningioma was on the left side of my skull. It was wrapped around my carotid artery and it pressed against my optic nerve. I went through a 10 hour craniotomy and I now have a titanium plate AND screws in my skull. Thank God my tumor is benign, but I have still endured the most difficult time of my life.
What are some of the effects you've experienced as a result of this brain tumor, and has there been anything positive to come out of this situation?
Everything about me is different. I have a right leg that slightly drags and it gets worse when I am fatigued. My speech is affected at times and I suffer from a fatigue that is indescribable. Cognitively I am not the same. I skip words when I talk and I forget that I have said things so I will often repeat myself. Yet, all of the changes in me have not been negative. I have conquered and faced many fears I never thought I would be able to. I am more vocal now and am in charge of my medical files and treatment. I realized quickly that doctors are blessings but they are not GODS. I am still healing even a year later as the tumor was removed in July of last year but I am here and able to tell my story and best of all, I am still blessed to be able to enjoy life with my husband Mario, my children, my family and my friends.
You've also conquered another great hurdle, Tracy. Every time I hear the story, I am amazed. Would you share with my readers what that great hurdle was?
Well Angela, as you know, over the past year I have lost over 147 pounds.
Cousin, no matter how many times I hear the story, I continue to be astounded that you battled a brain tumor and weight loss…all around the same time! If you don't mind, please tell my readers how you did it?
Over the years I had tried diet plan after diet plan. Weight loss was constantly on my mind. I wanted to fit in and not loathe going shopping because nothing fit. I spent my younger years being told "you have such a pretty face, if you would just lose weight." The whole weight issue has been a very hurtful part of my life. In school, I was the last to get picked in gym, and through the years, people would not be-friend me because of my weight. Throughout my life, I have been bullied and teased.
Finally, I made the decision to have weight loss surgery called the Gastric Sleeve, whereby 85% of my stomach was removed. I had the surgery done about six months before I found out I had a brain tumor. In my surgery, there was no re-routing of my intestines or creation of a pouch or new stomach. I am now only able to eat about 1/4 of what I used to eat at one sitting. I am not promoting this surgery or encouraging anyone else to have it done, but I will say this about it. The surgery saved my life and I couldn't be happier in this department.
I still have about 40lbs to lose to be at what is considered a normal weight, but to tell you the truth I feel comfortable right now at the weight I am. Some people believe having weight loss surgery is taking the easy way out but I can say with all honesty, it is not! I still must choose healthy foods to eat and incorporate exercise into my daily routine.
Tracy, you are truly an inspiration. Although you haven't mentioned it yet, you have other health issues that have slowed you down some. What are they?
I have Rheumatoid Arthritis, Chiari Malformation, and chronic anemia caused by a deficiency in the blood called G6PD. I also suffer from osteoarthritis and two bulging discs in my neck. I know it sounds like a lot of health issues but I am just trying to manage things one condition at a time.
And Tracy, let me just say, you are doing a phenomenal job managing everything, including, a new career. But Tracy, let's be frank. A lot of people would have said, after dealing with just one of the things you have dealt with, "Okay, I give up." But you never did. What kept you motivated to not stop?
I have had many, many days when I have just wanted to crawl into a hole and never come out of it. But, I keep my mind busy by reading each day and speaking with and keeping in contact with friends and classmates from school. I gladly accept help from my family and others who offer. But most of all I hold my head high. On the days I am in a lot of pain I pray, spend quiet time outside in nature by walking slowly around my neighborhood and I pray some more. And, as you mentioned, I have even begun my own business. I am an Avon representative! Running the business is helping me in the cognitive areas that I am struggling with and it also allows me to stay engaged with others. Lastly, Avon is providing a secondary source of income for my family, despite my disabilities.
But why Avon? What drew you to that particular company?
Avon is a company that has successfully been in business for over 100 years, and Avon representatives have the flexibility of running a small side business or build something larger. I love that the prices are reasonable and I personally use many of the products myself. Also, I love working for a company that sells itself. Everyone knows Avon!
My memories of Avon representatives are those ladies who used to come door-to-door. Has Avon changed from that model at all?
There are still representatives who operate their business door-to-door only. But then there are those representatives who prefer to run their business online. Either way, running an Avon business requires getting the word out; whether it is through passing out brochures or establishing a web presence. I try to do both. Each campaign, I try to canvas my neighborhood with books and I try to reach new clients online. Recently, I began a Facebook Business Page called Avon Beauty. For example, even though you and I are in different states, separated by hundreds of miles, I am still able to be your "Avon Lady" through my website. The online component of Avon is what has taken it from being your grandmother's Avon to what it is today, not to mention the fact that the products have also evolved over time. All in all, Avon is the same in some ways, but different in all the ways that count.
Well, I must confess, cousin. I do love getting those boxes with all of my neat Avon products every few weeks. Especially the products for my feet!
(Laughing) Yes, I know.
Well, Tracy, thank you for sharing your story with me again and with my readers. As I said before, your story is remarkable, and I would say that even if you weren't my cousin. I truly believe others will be as touched by your story as I was and continue to be.
Thank you, Angela.
Readers, if you would like a chance to win some incredible Avon products, leave a note for Tracy below and automatically, you will be entered into a drawing for a gift bag valued at $25. The winner of the gift bag will be announced on her Facebook Avon Beauty page on September 22, 2013. I will also announce the winner here on my blog. Click here to subscribe to her Facebook page.

Video: Demdike Stare: "Violetta"
The Wire has posted a new video by Manchester-based hauntology duo Demdike Stare. The unholy clip is for "Violetta", an unreleased track that's every bit as unsettling as the vintage horror clips director Jonny Redman spliced together. Appropriately, he's the current curator of European cult film website lovelockandload. (Via FACT.)*

Asparagus is a genus in the plant family Asparagaceae, subfamily Asparagoideae. It comprises up to 300 species. Most are evergreen long-lived perennial plants growing from the understory as lianas, bushes or climbing plants. The best-known species is the edible Asparagus officinalis, commonly referred to as just asparagus. Other members of the genus are grown as ornamental plants. The genus includes a variety of living forms, occurring from rainforest to semi-desert habitats; many are climbing plants. The differences among them came from the communities and ecosystems in which they occur, and the ecological and evolutionary processes that keep them functioning, yet ever changing and adapting. Ornamental species such as Asparagus plumosus, Asparagus aethiopicus, Asparagus setaceus, and Asparagus virgatus are finely branched and are misleadingly known as "asparagus fern".
Varieties include: asparagus myriocladius, asparagus meyeri, asparagus plumosus, asparagus tree fern, asparagus virgatus

Research Institution
AbstractA shock mitigating suspended seat, which places the Special Forces Operator in an optimal ergonomic position, will be developed for use in the NSW 11M RIB. It will feature a semi-actively controlled shock absorber to optimize the suspension for a broadrange of operator weights and sea states. In the Phase I effort, a conceptual design and architecture for both control hardware and software was developed. This will provide the basis for the detailed design and fabrication of a prototype system capableof withstanding extended proof of concept and feasibility testing in Phase II. Dynamic modeling will be performed using customer supplied craft acceleration data to predict system benefits and provide sensor and actuator requirements. The seat will bedesigned to fit into the same footprint as the current bolster system and will allow ease of rapid ingress and egress for the boat crew and operators. A human factors study of the man machine interface in the NSW 11M RIB will be conducted to ensure thatthe proposed optimal ergonomic position is compatible with the location of craft monitoring and control devices. A design budget approach will be used to track the total system cost, weight and space claim.

People have fallen in love with cheesecakes so trying to create the Tiramisu cheesecake recipe by your own will only bring a mouthwatering experience. The flavors of Tiramisu and cheesecake combined can make your taste buds go wild as this is a delicious sweet.
Cheesecake history
The origins of cheesecake seem to be traced back to ancient times, about 2000 years ago BC to ancient Greece. There have been found several items which lead to the belief that Greeks have discovered this amazingly delicious treat way before the modern cheesecakes. Archeologists have discovered cheese molds which is believed to be have been used to create cheesecakes. Writings have been discovered dating those times in which a certain cheese based cake called "libum" is described, which is quite similar to the cheesecakes created and enjoyed worldwide today.
Tiramisu history
It is absolutely amazing how certain ingredients can work together to create one of the most tasty treats ever. This is exactly what happened the day Tiramisu was created. This Italian cake has managed to expand it's popularity worldwide and it's no surprise why. With very interesting ingredients, as it uses coffee and liquor to prepare the mixture, Tiramisu is a treat which should be tried.
Tiramisu cheesecake recipe
This mouthwatering treat uses ingredients from both cheesecake and Tiramisu to create a unique flavor.
To recreate this delicious recipe you will need:
Take a pan (9 inch springform) and apply half of the vanilla wafers to cover the bottom of the pan. Apply using a cooking brush half of the mixture created by the 2 tablespoons of coffee, melted margarine and liquor.
Put the cream cheese, mascarpone and sugar in a bowl and use a mixer to stir the ingredients well until a homogenous composition is created. Add 1 egg at a time, mix the remaining coffee with the tablespoon of water and add it to the composition.
Remove some of the mixture, leaving some to cover the cake. Place the mixture over the vanilla wafers you already placed in the pan. Layer the remaining wafers over and brush the coffee/liquor/butter mixture over them and apply the remaining ingredient mixture over the wafers.
Bake the cake in a preheated oven around 300ºF until the center is almost done. Take the pan out and using a knife separate the edges of the cake from the pan. Allow the pan to cool and remove it's edge. Spread the cool whipped topping and sprinkle some cocoa powder over it. Put the cake into the refrigerator for at least 5 hours and enjoy your delicious homemade Tiramisu cheesecake.
This might not be a low calorie desert but it is absolutely worth trying it, at least once in a while.

Reviewed By Hilary S (San Antonio, TX) Reviewed for a 2010 Honda Ridgeline —7/19/2017 11:01 AM
I have had my exhaust installed for a few days so far. Outside of the nice exhaust note I have not had enough miles on it to give a performance review. It took me about 1.25-1.50 hours to install it. The hardest part was getting the nuts off the catalytic converter. I sprayed them with a penetrating fluid several times and let them set over night before they broke loose. Everything fit very well. The oblong exhaust tip looks great.

I'm sitting in the kitchen of our cabin at Piatt Lake, blogging and reflecting on the incredible messages I've heard at Hiawatha since I got here Monday.
I'm walking through the plaza in Pucallpa with my host family. We're all touching somehow – an arm looped through another arm, a hand on a shoulder, an elbow balancing on another shoulder. Intertwined, laughing, nearly falling, perfect.
I'm running into my mom's arms in Detroit, bursting into tears because I haven't seen her in 5 weeks and I haven't slept in 36 hours and my suitcase didn't make it to the airport when I did.
I'm walking down the streets of Yarina, unknowingly about to attend a surprise party in my honor. As I round the corner by the church, the youth group runs out to greet me with hugs and kisses. We set off on a walk, arm-in-arm in one giant line, blasting music from a boom-box and laughing.
I'm walking through Wal-Mart slowly, reminding myself to say "thank you," and "excuse me," instead of "gracias," and "permiso por favor." I'm looking around in wonder at this store that is larger than some of the villages I visited in Peru, at this excess of THINGS, shivering in the air conditioning and wondering why in the world we need so much STUFF.
I'm sitting on the floor of Carlos and Carolina's house, at the second leg of my surprise party. We're all in a circle, passing shoes around while the group sings "guerrero a guerrero con la tiki-tiki-ta." At one point everyone points at me and laughs, and I realize that I'm out… though I still have no idea what the point of the game was.
I'm perched at a picnic table on the beach, surrounded by cousins and aunts and uncles. There's a 3-year-old on my lap, a cup of coffee in my left hand, and I'm taking a picture of the Piatt Lake sunset with the camera in my right hand. Doug and Marilyn are here, and the conversation turns to Peru.
I'm standing in the front of the classroom, dry erase marker in hand. I push play on my computer and my English students beginning singing "Give Me Jesus." I write the chorus on the board, swat a few bugs, then sit down on a wooden stool and close my eyes, just listening.
I'm at the evening service at Hiawatha. Surrounded by staff and campers, I'm singing of God's unfailing love; His eternal faithfulness. A tear slips down my cheek as I realize how far (literally and figuratively) I've come in the last week.
I'm at the airport in Pucallpa, sitting on a bench, talking to Monica and Pedro in sheer denial. My flight comes in an hour, but I'm refusing to believe it, refusing to accept the fact that I'm leaving. We're just at the airport for fun, I tell myself. We'll watch the plane take off, get back in the motokar, and go home.
I'm sitting on the floor of the rec hall at camp, telling my best friend all about my trip… in Spanish. He asks me to slow down a few times and I smile, proud even though I know pride is wrong, excited that I speak Spanish now. We're looking at pictures, watching videos, sharing inside jokes, and my heart is pulling to another place.
I'm at my last prayer meeting at CEMY. The church members have called me to the front and formed a circle around me. Pastor Daniel begins to pray for me, and they join in one by one, until everyone is praying for me out loud, at the same time. Spanish rushes over me as I catch bits and pieces of the things they're asking God for on my behalf. Tears rush out of my eyes and sobs begin to shake my shoulders while the realization that I'm expected to LEAVE these people begins to set in.
I'm arriving at camp, I'm walking around. Everyone hugs me, asks how the trip was. "Wonderful," I begin, and take a breath to start the next sentence, or two, or ten. But they've already accepted that as my full answer, they're already nodding, telling me something about their summers. I remember, then. I remember how it is to come back.
I'm still at the airport in Pucallpa. We've moved inside now, and I can no longer deny. I have my passport and boarding pass in my hand, and the flight attendant is standing by the door to security, patiently waiting. I throw my arms around these people I have come to love, one at a time, for a few precious last seconds. I have a goodbye party of about 14, and we are all crying. I embrace them one at a time, leaving them with an "I love you," and a shoulder soaked with tears. My brother Pedro is last, and I cling to him hard, unleashing a small ocean onto his special graduation shirt for school.
I'm learning to be thankful for those who want to know. For my mom, who has listened to every story and still wants more. For Doug and Marilyn, who understand and were there this year and are as desperate for debriefing as I am. For my dad, who patiently looks at "just one more picture" – about 200 times. For Craig, for Emily, for Molly, for Madison, for Alyssa and hours on the phone and over Skype. I'm at camp, but my heart is still aching for Peru.
I'm letting go of Pedro, blowing final kisses, walking through the doors to security. I'm apologizing through sobs; the flight attendant is telling me not to worry, it's no problem. I'm walking across the tarmac to my plane, turning around over and over to look at the upstairs window where they're all standing, waving, crying, blowing kisses. I'm walking up the steps to the plane, turning around one last time. I'm sitting down, thankful for my window seat, wishing the window was on the other side. I'm clutching my nearly empty pack of Kleenex, staring out the window at my Pucallpa.
I'm sitting on the sand next to a blazing fire. My friend-first-cousin-second, 4 years my junior but my confidante and partner in crime nonetheless, has her head on my shoulder and my arm is around her neck. If nothing else, Peru erased my space bubble and turned my love language to physical touch. We're singing, a song that begs God to take total control of everything. The stars overhead are blinding in their brilliance.
I'm buckling my seatbelt, trying desperately to keep from sobbing loudly. A man and his son are sitting down next to me, doing a valiant job of pretending there isn't a crazy gringa bawling her eyes out. The plane is moving, moving, faster and faster. It completes the runway and turns around for another loop, gaining speed. I'm looking out the window toward the airport as we approach. My view is blurry because of my tears, but I make out a group still standing in the upstairs window, still waving, still blowing kisses. The plane is taking off, and I'm picking out buildings from above, recognizing the streets that take me home, to church, to Monica's, to town.
I'm finding out that my planes are delayed, that I'll be sitting in New Jersey for 5 hours after sitting in Lima for 12. I'm ordering airport food, running on auto-pilot, buying a blanket because the air conditioning is already making me sick. I'm reading Reader's Digest in Spanish, forgetting to speak English, trying to sleep. I keep crying at stupid little things. I just want to go home already.
I'm opening the cards that were pressed into my hand at the airport. I'm reading and crying and crying and crying. The man and his son are still doing a wonderful job of pretending there's nothing wrong with me, handing me my airplane beverage and sandwich without meeting my eyes. I'm not knowing when I'll see my Peruvian family again, not knowing if I can bear not knowing. I'm crying, still crying.
I'm eating Mexican food, unpacking, repacking, eating ALL the cheese. I'm talking 6 million words per minute to Mom, pausing to take a breath and gulp down some more Diet Coke with extra ice. I'm sitting on my living room floor, but my mind is thousands of miles away.
I'm laying in my hammock. I'm eating rice. I'm going to prayer meeting. I'm speaking Spanish. I'm listening to music with Pedro. I'm teaching Ruth how to make cookies. I'm watching Yo Soy! and Combate while journaling. I'm riding in a motokar. I'm walking down dusty roads. I'm taking a cold shower. I'm hanging clothes outside. I'm walking down the road to buy bread. I'm eating a stuffed potato from a cart. I'm talking to Monica. I'm hugging Nathaniel. I'm taking pictures with Fabiano. I'm smiling, I'm laughing, I'm crying, I'm dancing, I'm happy. I'm home.
I'm sitting on the footbridge. I'm eating camp food. I'm going to morning and evening services. I'm speaking English, except when they ask me to speak Spanish. I'm looking at pictures with Craig. I'm talking with Emily about the differences and similarities between Peru and Guatemala. I'm watching the staff do skits and singing praise and worship. I'm driving a four-wheeler. I'm walking down dusty roads. I'm taking a hot shower. Mom is hanging clothes outside. I'm pulling bread out of the cupboard. I'm eating microwave popcorn. I'm talking to Marilyn. I'm hugging Madison. I've only taken 4 pictures. I'm smiling, I'm laughing, I'm crying, I'm singing, I'm happy. I'm home.

Folk Machine Chenin Blanc Mendocino County 2015
Tastes Like:
The wines by Kenny Likitprakong capture the magic that Vinley believes in - that wine is like a postcard from a time and place and a hallmark of craftsmen of an ancient trade. This Chenin Blanc comes from California's Central Coast but was inspired by Kenny's trip to Loire Valley in France, where he experienced the wonderful clean minerality of white wines from that region. For him it was an inspiring contrast to the heavy fruit and oak of California Chardonnays, and it has been his mission ever since to evoke refreshing acidity and purity of fruit and soil in his Chenin Blancs.
From the old vine Norgard Vineyard on the Talmage Bench in Mendocino, only 277 cases of this white wine were produced. The grapes were wholecluster pressed into two concrete eggs for fermentation, and then left on the lees in a combination of
concrete egg and neutral barrels for Malolactic fermentation. Citrus acidity and wonderful minerality dominate the palate.

By David Cuff - Jan. 2017
Edward S. Stallknecht first came to Prince William County in 1933, as a 20 year old Private in the Marine Corps. In 1950 he and his wife, Ruth, bought a house in Triangle and started Cedar Knoll Mobile Home Park. He retired from the Marines as a Lt. Col. in 1964. In 1965 he became a Realtor after becoming the first person to graduate from the Realtors Institute. He became a broker in 1968 and started Stallknecht Realty with his wife, Ruth. They operated the business out of their home until May 17, 1973, when they moved the office to a renovated house on Rt. 1 just north of Triangle Plaza.
While in the Marines Ed learned to fly and joined the Quantico Flying Club which allowed members to rent the club owned airplanes for leisure flights. Ed would fly around Prince William and Stafford Counties to observe the developments happening in the counties and to look for land tracts he could possibly sell.
There are over 400 images in the collection taken in the mid to late 1970s. Select a category below to view related images.
Special thanks to Leslie Stallknecht and Karl Rice for providing access to and allowing use of the photos.
The video on this page is a digital version of the presentation Ed Stallknecht gave to the Prince William Board of Realtors, other Realtors, and clients. It was compiled from a cassette recording and a script which dictated what images were to be shown during the talk.

Have you noticed how trendy Birmingham's become over the last five years? I remember how bloody boring it all seemed when I was growing up – although my social life consisted of the Brownies and synchronised swimming lessons, so what did I know?
Perhaps I've been hanging out with the wrong people all these years, but recently there just seems to be so much stuff going on that it's hard to know what to actually do.
I do try and do some stuff, and I went out on some "important business" with a notorious vigilante cycle gang on a recent Wednesday evening, which for a myriad of complicated reasons, had to be conducted in the pub (the reasons were beer and wine). The pub we graced with our mostly lycra free presence was 1000 Trades in the Jewellery Quarter.
This place is so hipster. Seriously. The toilets are clad in chipboard. But you know what? You know what I've realised about myself… I like hipsters. Sorry. I know. It's kind of not allowed but…the bars are cool. And the music. And I kinda like the clothes, soz. I don't even mind the beards. I like to look at funny things, especially when drinking.
I also really bloody like the chipboard clad toilets. I like the weird velvet curtain inside the the door. I like that it has all these cool nights advertised on the board in the chipboard toilet (like 'Now Ham' or 'Disco Sucks', haha guys) that I will always go "ooh looks good" and never go to.
The most thoroughly hipster place I have ever been (there was actually a dude in a poncho and a cowboy hat on his massive afro who popped outside and came back smelling very green) was The Wildcat Tap in Stirchley (yeah suck it Kings Heath AND Moseley). And I LOVED that place. Does this make me a hipster? I don't know. I will never admit it.
As well as 1000 Trades being really cool (did I mention that?) it also has nice booze. They have Lawless on tap, which is my favourite lager. I really honestly know nothing about beer, so I can't tell you anything about hops (does lager have hops? Another mystery that will never be unravelled) or what the thing is about the taste that just makes it nicer than most other lagers I've had. It's just really nice, so if you haven't you should try it. Plus, of course, it's free from any fish gut related activity, what with it being unfiltered, so (of course) it's vegan.
Lawless is popping up all over the place. The Old Contemptibles by Snow Hill has it, and the Lounge chains (Desco, Arco, etc – I had it in the one in Sutton) and even the MAC (Midlands Art Centre) – where it tasted great even though it was in a plastic cup.
This Wednesday, however, given the coming domination of Lawless (seriously – it deserves to be inevitable) I went for some of the Beavertown Neck Oil Session IPA. The first time I visited 1000 Trades they had Beavertown's Gamma Ray (also very nice) – which is good news for veggies and vegans, as all of Beavertown's bottles, cans and keykeg beers have been confirmed by the Hackney-based brewer as suitable for vegans. Of the two I preferred the Neck Oil, and I can see why they suggest you have a session with it. Sounds like a great idea to me.
I will pretty much always try a pale ale, especially if it has an interesting looking pump clip, can or bottle. In my experience you kind of can judge a beer by it's cover. 1000 Trades has a good range of cool looking cans and bottles in the fridge. The Mountain' Livin' Pale Ale, which has a rather handsome portrait of a goat, is vegan, so I was clearly obliged to try it. And I was right. Pretty can = nice beer. It's good to have a solid metric to work off.
The kitchen is taken over by 'resident' street food vendors – for March it is Moody Cow, which you might guess from the hee-larious name specialises in meaty burgers. They do have a vegan option, a pretty unsurprising falafel burger (yah falafel WE KNOW) with guacamole – such obvious vegan pandering tactics, playing the avocado card! Avocado is my spirit animal. To be honest, I kind of have to stay away from guacamole because I'm always disappointed that it isn't just a whole avocado mashed up with a spoon to eat it. I'd buy that in a pub. I didn't try the food on this occasion (other than one of someone else's fries) because a) eating is cheating and there isn't a b.
Vegan rating: 4 avocados out of 5. More vegan food options would be nice, but it obviously depends on who's in the kitchen, and anyway this is a bar with lots of good looking (literally) beer to choose from, which is clearly the most important thing.
