Hello again everybody...
I'm back from vacation, and I can't begin to tell you how amazing it was. I still haven't quite decided how to package it together for you, but for the time being, those of you on Facebook can see a ton of pictures on my page.
But while I go through the process of putting all that together, the sports world rolls on. Which means I need to break down my college picks from last week. I started the year 3-0. Could I keep it rolling in Week 2?
Let's find out!
"In great affairs men show themselves as they wish to be seen; in small things they show themselves as they are."
- Nicholas Chamfort (1741 - 1794), French writer
I love this quote because it applies on so many levels. We all can step up with the moment requires it of us. But perhaps our true natures are revealed when we're not making an effort to disguise them?
«Read More...»
So would my picks in Week 2 show me for who I am? Or would they be just a bump in the road? The only way to find out is to give you my...
2009 College Football Picks: Week 2 Post-Mortem
First up...
Georgia -7 vs. South Carolina: Final Score - Georgia 41, South Carolina 37
Even though I was on vacation, I got to watch a little of this game. When I tuned in, Georgia was up by 14 and things were looking good. But Carolina came storming back and did just enough in the second half to cover the spread and beat me.
What Dan Learned: Not much actually. By the end of this game, I was left with more questions than answers. Where was this Gamecock offense last week? Are they really this good, or is Georgia's defense that suspect? Sure Georgia can score a lot, even without super-RB Knowshon Moreno, but if they can't stop the other team, what chance to they have against the Florida's and LSU's of the world?!
0-1, but determined to come back.
Air Force +4.5 @ Minnesota: Final Score - Minnesota 20, Air Force 13
*This game was this week's Sports Take Flier Pick of the Week
Caught some of this game too. (Really, I was on vacation and all, but if I'm chillin in a hotel room and there's college football on, I'm watching dammit!)
First of all, I was jealous of everybody who got to be part of the opener at TCF Bank Stadium. Had I been in town, I'd have been there for work, but alas, I scheduled my vacation without considering the college football schedule. Bad me.
The new stadium looked spectacular and I can't wait to head out there on October 3rd when Bucky comes to town.
As for the game itself? Well, another one that didn't work out how I'd hoped. This was a game Minnesota should've won, and to give credit where credit is do, they covered.
Air Force isn't an easy team to play when you're not used to facing a triple-option offense. The Gopher defense gave up some big plays on the edges, but any time the Falcons tried to go up the middle, the Gophs shut them down.
Offensively, things still aren't clicking on all cylinders for Minnesota yet, but they did enough to win. And when you're significantly changing your offensive philosophy from the previous year, that's about as much as you can hope for. They'll need to get things going to be competitive in the Big Ten.
What Dan Learned: Eric Decker is scary good. He's going to have a whale of a decision ahead of him next year. He's already been drafted twice by MLB teams. So does he pursue a baseball career or a football career? Not a bad dilemma to face. In the mean time, he's going to give Big Ten defensive coordinators fits trying to shut him down.
Still 0-1 (thank you Flier Pick!) and hoping to turn things around quickly.
USC -7 @ Ohio State: Final Score - USC 18, Ohio St. 15
Saw some of this too. Kudos to Ohio State for coming out fired up and jumping out to an early lead.
Bigger kudos to USC who weathered the Buckeyes' storm and came up with a clutch drive in the closing minutes to win the game.
Unfortunately, it wasn't enough for me to cover.
What Dan Learned: Freshman quarterbacks aren't a reason to bet against anybody this year. Matt Barkley of USC and Tate Forcier of Michigan both came up with big time game-winning drives, showing poise and skill that belies their youth.
As for Ohio State? They played better than most people thought they would, but in the end, couldn't pull off the upset. So is all the "Big Ten sucks" chatter going to die down now? Not after Michigan State's loss to Central Michigan this weekend. And Ohio State still hasn't won "the big one" yet.
0-2 and things aren't looking good.
Purdue +12 @ Oregon: Final Score - Oregon 38, Purdue 36
I finally win one this week!
I'll give credit to Oregon for bouncing back from about as tough a Week 1 as a team could have. But for Vegas to set this line as Oregon -12 was just giving money away.
I was worried that the wise guys knew something I didn't. Fortunately, that worry was unfounded.
What Dan Learned: We can't assume that Oregon's going to suck just because they suspended their number one running back for the year. I don't think they're a threat to win the Pac 10, but they're not just going to roll over and play dead either.
So I finished the week 1-2. Not great. Okay, it sucked. But at least it wasn't an 0-for!
For the year, I'm now 4-2 (.667). Ahead of last year's pace, but only slightly. So far, not too bad. We'll see what happens next week!
That's all for today. I'll be back on Wednesday with more Sports Take goodness for you!
Until then, thanks for reading!

There are rumors that a million dollar lawsuit is in the works against Aaron Lacrate of Milkcrate Athletics for bootlegging Mobb Deep's trademark brand name on their shirts. Apparently the duo agreed to a small promo of one tee, and Aaron pulled "a scum bag move" and began producing numerous shirts with the Mobb Deep logo and image.
Milkcrate Athletics is not authorized to sell Mobb Deep or Infamous T-shirts, but has allegedly been making it seem like Mobb Deep is under a full endorsement deal with them. Insiders told us exclusively that Mobb Deep in no way supports this" tacky crumb and his wack tee-shirts."
The crew is allegedly urging fans and retailers not to support the T-shirts, either.

American comedian Stephen Colbert (The Daily Show, Colbert Report) did the commencement speech at Northwestern University earlier this month. It was funny, had some in-jokes for the graduates and a section about improv and how it applies to life. The speech is mainly just funny (only a little bit of sentiment at the end) and, I think, will be of particular interest to improvisers. Big thanks to Jordan and Amanda Hirsch from "Think Improv" for drawing my attention to it.

Keeping up with the Joneses #55
It wasn't long until little Evelyn was born. She grew up fast, into a mean little girl. Declan and Erica loved her all the same, but they hoped their next child would be a bit more pleasant.
Declan continued to work hard at his music, hoping one day to reach the pinnacle of the entertainer career.
Evelyn, mean as she was, was lonely. She turned to her stuffed toys, not knowing that she would not be an only child for long.
Meanwhile, Clara had finally made a new friend. She decided not to waste any time, as she knew her life was coming to an end.

Gurren Lagann, known in Japan as Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann (天元突破グレンラガン, Tengen Toppa Guren Ragan, lit. "Pierce the Heavens, Gurren Lagann"), is a Japanese mecha anime television series animated by Gainax and co-produced by Aniplex and Konami. It ran for 27 episodes on Japan's TV Tokyo between April 1, 2007, and September 30, 2007. It was directed by Hiroyuki Imaishi, written by veteran playwright Kazuki Nakashima, both of whom would later collaborate on two more projects, Kill la Kill in 2013 and Promare in 2019, and had been in development since the participation of the famed animator in the Abenobashi mecha-themed episodes by the same studio. Gurren Lagann takes place in a fictional future where Earth is ruled by the Spiral King, Lordgenome, who forces mankind to live in isolated subterranean villages. The plot focuses on two teenagers, Simon and Kamina, who live in a subterranean village and wish to go to the surface. Using a mecha known as Lagann, Simon and Kamina reach the surface and start fighting alongside other humans against Lordgenome's forces, before fighting the forces of their true enemy.

On our last day in Paris we decided it was imperative to visit our favourite shopping area just to make sure we didn't miss anything, so back we went to Rue Saint-Honore and our beloved Colette. Where I fell in love with t-shirts that were sadly sold out in my size – it's heartbreaking to be very honest with you *tear falls down one cheek* *writes song about broken heart a la Drake*. On the subject of heart break, I was on the hunt for a specific pair of Filling Pieces sneakers, the coral pair I mentioned in my nudes post, and whilst I made a friend in Colette he gave me the name of a shop I'd probably find them in…and so the hunt began.
We hopped into an Uber and headed off to Le Marais, this super trendy shopping district only to turn up outside the shop and find it was closed. The hunt promptly ended.
We then decided to wander around the area, which is when I stumbled upon Majestic Filatures. Lemme tell you a little something about Majestic Filatures, if you're obsessed with high quality super beautiful basics, this is your shop: fine linen, the softest jersey, incredible cotton. Fine, subtly tailored t-shirts, light jackets and delicate dresses in a selection of delicious summer colours. I basically had to touch everything in there.
OOTD Details:Sunglasses – DiorT-Shirt – Private PartyJacket – Kit & AceJeans: TopshopShoes – Christian LouboutinEarrings – Shaun Leane
We were travelling back to London that evening so my OOTD had to be suitable for travel but still Versailles and as we know from my previous posts (here and here) I'm obsessed with Private Party – I think it's super hilarious and clever – and my recent addition from them is my "Praying for these hoes" t-shirt with Drake praying hands (obviously). Paired with my lethal Louboutins (they gave me bleeding ankles but you know…fashion) and a grey jacket to add some "colour".

Grand Pacific Resorts Partners with Zingle
David Wang
Carlsbad, CA, September 2016: Grand Pacific Resort team members have the opportunity to use text messages to communicate with timeshare owners and guests, thanks to a new partnership with Zingle®, a text messaging service for businesses. The launch of this service is already improving satisfaction and optimizing efficiency as owners and guests use text messaging to quickly request towels, housekeeping services, and maintenance repairs as well as provide instant feedback on their stay experience.
"Owners say the text system is a lot more convenient than calling the front desk," says Holly Ansley, general manager at Grand Pacific Palisades Resort & Hotel. "We route all text messages to a single dashboard, so we can respond quickly and efficiently. Owners also receive confirmation texts, so they know right away that their request has been received."
The service is particularly appealing to the millennial generation. Many millennials are becoming interested in vacation ownership after staying at a timeshare resort with family members who have owned for years. This incoming generation of owners prefers text messaging over phone calls.
According to Nigel Lobo, chief operating officer of this growing timeshare management company, "As mobile becomes more integrated into the lives of our owners and guests, Grand Pacific Resorts is rising to the occasion by providing our resorts with new tools and resources. Our associates can now service families in a way that matches their communication preferences."
"We are ecstatic to announce our partnership with Grand Pacific Resorts, which manages some of San Diego's most distinctive coastal resorts," says Ford Blakely, Zingle's founder and CEO. "In today's marketplace, guests are demanding a heightened service level, which is available through the latest in mobile, on-demand technology. Grand Pacific Resorts is an exciting partner that provides a unique guest experience. We are excited to roll out the Zingle platform and seamlessly connect all messaging communication into one real-time dashboard."

Yarn | Live Set | @ The Broadberry
Yarn played an awesome set here at The Broadberry on March 5th 2016 and they recorded it live for you to listen to it here.
Yarn will be back at The Broadberry on September 9th, you can buy tickets for that here.
"The group of four that stuck has two Grammy nominations for past albums "Empty Pockets" and "Almost Home." And they're releasing a new album in May. Christiana says it is the best record they've done. "We don't get to listen to the record like a fan putting it on in their car would listen to it. It gets picked apart. There are days where you are kinda indifferent and there are days where you are excited because you are so close to it. There is this song 'Love Hate' that was born in the studio — we put it together in the studio, which hasn't been the case before. The song is usually already there by the time we get to the studio. The song is this dance song, in a way. It is just great," says Christiana.
He says they are happy to be back in Richmond and really have found a sense of community here.
"We have been playing [Richmond] more often than we used to. It's just that the fans are amazing, so the demand is there, so we will just come back," he says. "I mean, as long as you'll have us, we will be there." –Richmond Magazine

The theme for this week's Corner View is coffee. Now, when you mention the word 'coffee', the first place people think of is Brazil. The coffee beans in the picture, which I will grind for my morning coffee tomorrow, are indeed from Brazil, but they have, in a way, returned home, because like most of the world's best coffee beans they are Coffea arabica and as the name suggests, they originally came from the Arabian peninsula, just over the border from here, in Yemen, where coffee was first cultivated more than a thousand years ago. Arab traders took these beans to Indonesia and East Africa hundreds of years later and eventually they were exported to Latin America.
Last summer I was in Panama and learned a lot more about coffee when I was given a guided tour of the Kotowa Coffee Estate by Dutch coffee farmer, Hans van der Vooren. The first and possibly most important thing is, don't buy coffee that's already been ground. Coffee not only loses its flavour and aroma very quickly, it also absorbs smells and tastes from its surroundings. So, for example if you fry bacon and eggs near ground coffee, that's what it will taste of. Also, for the same reason, you should keep your coffee beans in a vacuum-sealed container. When buying coffee beans, what should you look for? Well, they should have a uniform shape and size as this shows that they have been properly sorted and graded; bigger beans tend to be more expensive. And they should be 100% Arabica as that is the best variety. Why, you may wonder, do farmers bother growing any other variety? The reason is that Coffea arabica is not easy to grow and requires very specific conditions: warm mountain slopes with a minimum altitude of 1,500m and light shade, which is usually provided by surrounding trees. The other main variety, Robusta (Coffea canephora), which is the basis for most instant coffee, is far easier to grow and can tolerate direct sunlight.
Now, with regard to how the beans have been processed, Hans explained that you don't want them burnt too much. Light roast beans (the pale coloured ones) will retain the greatest bouquet of flavours. These complex natural flavours can range from citrus fruit to vanilla and chocolate. If they are poor quality beans, they will also have unpleasant bitter flavours present. So, the cheaper beans are roasted for longer to get rid of the bitterness. Dark roast beans are invariably poor quality which is why they needed to be roasted for so long. The worst culprits are the French roast beans. They are from the cheap Robusta variety and have been burnt almost to a cinder in order to eradicate their natural bitterness. Medium roast is indeed a happy medium as it will retain much of the original bouquet of flavours, yet at the same time not be too bitter.
Panamanian coffee is currently considered to be the best in the world. Based on price and results in international coffee-tasting competitions, the world's best coffees are Panama's Geisha, Jamaica's Blue Mountain, Hawaii's Kona, Indonesia's Kopi Luwak, Guatemala's El Injerto, Brazil's Fazenda Santa Ines, El Salvador's Los Planes, Island of St. Helena Coffee Co. and Rwanda Blue Bourbon. They are all Coffea arabica. A kilo of Geisha beans from Boquete can cost more than $200.
For those of you who haven't ground your own beans before, you don't need a mortar and pestle. There are lots of cheap, efficient electric coffee grinders available in the shops. I particularly like the Kenwood CG100.

How To Use A Multimeter (DMM) To Measure Voltage, Existing And Resistance
Some men and women just really like to take factors apart to see how they function, even if they're not broken! Aside from the usual drumming up of automotive sales in the course of this tough financial period, MAI's aim for the auto show include creating public awareness about the business as a whole and also especially the aim for Malaysian to be the regional hub for Energy Effective Vehicle assembly in the ASEAN area. You hold doing the identical job over and over again, you get more quickly at the repair and a lot more efficient, which in turn tends to make you far more cash. Detailing clay removes contamination from the paint that is not removed during normal washing. Manufacturing engineers are concerned with the activities on how to assemble entire parts of automobiles. Autoblog Minute is a quick-type news video series reporting on all issues automotive.
To put it basically, if 1 can achieve one hundred percent service absorption, then all of the dealership's fixed expenditures are paid for by the service and parts departments, which implies that the sales division is making net profit on the really initial unit it sells. Some folks think that tires are the most critical component of the vehicle, due to the fact they are the only parts that actually touch the road. Given that 1977 we have supplied a total line of auto repair services from routinely scheduled maintenance to transmission and clutch repair.
For over ten years, INRIX has been a visionary when it comes to leveraging dynamic data to help drivers, from the most precise real-time site visitors, to parking, road hazards, fuel and climate, opening up a planet of effective cloud based solutions for the demanding automotive industry.

Friday Morning Rambling...
Last night was my work party. Everyone stands around talking and eating and that is pretty much it. Is this how most parties for work go?
Why can't I find a bra that fits :D Just saying...actually along that line...when I find one that is comfortable I have to buy a few because the next time I go back to buy more they will have been discontinued! What is up with that? Most women I know are very loyal to products that they like such as a good pair of jeans, the perfect lipstick color and a comfortable bra. I would think the retailers would get that but I guess not.
If you haven't visited the Pioneer Woman's website, www.thepioneerwoman.com , I highly recommend it. What I want to know is when does this woman sleep? She has a big ranch, 4 kids she HOME SCHOOLS, a cookbook, a Harlequin romance book, a very cool website that she updates pretty much every day and she travels around promoting all of this. She is smart and funny and I want to be her when I have a minute but still...exhausts me just thinking about it.
I just finished the 3rd book in Stacia Kane's Downside Ghosts series, "City of Ghosts".
From Amazon "In this dark futuristic urban fantasy series, Kane (Demon Possessed) blurs the boundaries between the living and the dead. Chess Putnam works for the world-ruling Church of Real Truth, debunking false claims of haunting and banishing the occasional real ghost."
"Chess herself isn't someone I should like and root for, but I do. Even as she gobbles her drugs like smarties, uses people for sex and hurts the only person who has looked out for her. It speaks volumes for Stacia Kane's writing ability that I still want to see Chess come out on top. I also love that chess isn't the best of the best at her job, she doesn't do Buffy-style roundhouse kicks and she doesn't have mystical powers developing here, there and everywhere. She has numerous flaws and makes mistakes, shes human."
The author is so very good at describing Chess's pain that I cried for her, three times! I know most of you aren't into this kind of reading but I enjoyed it very much and wanted to share.
I have been working out 3 times a week for a month and haven't lost one freaking inch or pound! If you know me you know I am not a very big eater, I barely snack and pretty much never eat after dinner so WTH? Mallory is not only trainer but a nutritionist too and we have been discussing my food every week. Let me repeat NOT ONE POUND! Open to suggestions here...

Bowling Ball Earrings
I really need a new camera. These earrings are very light weight and fun. I met Matt at a craft show and he had a funny story to go along with the great jewelry. He has no idea who I am but I thought I would share because his jewelry is fun. I know quite a few of you bowl!
Well the holiday craziness is upon me. I don't think this is my favorite time of year.
1. To commerical. Really nuf said!
2. One brother and sister live out of state. I miss them on the holiday and it is a hassle to mail their stuff. I love them and want to make sure they have presents from me but on the other hand I never seem to have enough time to get their stuff in the mail on time. This year sister is coming here so that is great but ...sniff...snifff....this is the first year little brother and his family won't be here. It is making me pretty sad; I just got teary-eyed typing this. bwwwwaaaaaaaaa.a..
3. It's freaking cold. I hate running around to all the store in this weather. When I have time, which is usually after work, it's DARK and COLD.
4. Back to stuff. The Bobster and I are very lucky have everything we need so I find it silly getting more. We have a very small limit for each other which helps make it a bit creative but I are at the point where honestly, I don't want anything. The Bobster really really works hard to make sure I have something fun to open under the tree every year so I can't really him, "sorry honey, I don't want anything".
5. Sigh..family......
I love July 4th.. fireworks, bonfires, marshallows.. I love Halloween, kids, candy, fall. After all these years I am finally standing up and saying "hi, my name is Colleen and bah humbug".

Computer Tech
I work for various sites out there… mostly side jobs… build this , proto that etc… dont make much but its more about learning for me right now.
Trying to start a small business. Currently buying parts from over seas to get the best deals. Will be starting on eBay as a start then moving my way up to my own online store.

Hi bro,
I'm 25 years old computer software professional. since 1 years ago i interested in electronics science. but there was no time to start my researches in this field. it's about two weeks that i start learning electronics fundamentals like Current, Intensity, Resistance and etc. I want to reach to the point of digital design. i have some idea in my mind and i want to do them, but i don't know where to begin. for example what do i need to gain the ability of designing some electronics circuit to act as a number display with AVR(for example). can you help me find the start point? i need some PDF book to start over the electronics.
KID says :
HI, actually i'm not good at English, i don't how to say, but i found that you are trying to start your business, the only thing i can say is, good luck for you, i beleave that you can build your own business!!
Yves McDonald says :
Did you drop the AtomEVE board? I'm about to try it on the Raspberry Pi model B over I2C, in order to keep the wire count down. The Pi uses 3.3V i/o voltages so it's a natural. I did one mod to the AtomEVE (MODE pin pulled high instead of pulled down). Not covered by warranty, I guess (lol). On the software side, I'll write the FT800 driver, using bcm_2835_io userspace GPIO/I2C library. Been there, done that in the past for an AVR32 (now Microchip!) processor. Cheers|

With little personal mail today, some of the classics of odd envelope messages may be lost on a generation that communicates via email. SWAK for example -- although fitting nicely into the texting template of acronyms -- still means Sealed With A Kiss and not So What Are Kids, or some other message indicated by keyboard shorthand.
On this 4th of July weekend let's consider the message an upside-down flag stamp on an envelope conveys. It has different meanings for different people, but you can be sure that Golden Girl Blanche's interpretation -- code meaning you want to get it on with the mailman -- is way off the mark.
Some wives and sweethearts of those serving overseas still use the trick with inverted or oddly positioned non-flag stamps to communicate their depth of feeling to the recipient even before mail is opened. Of course, an upside down flag has always signaled distress and an indicator that something is wrong beyond the "I need you" message that's behind positioning stamps on missives to loved ones. If you see an upside-down flag stamp on an envelope today, it may be an echo of the unpopular Viet Nam war, when protesters used the gimmick as a method of protest.
The message of love through stamps started in the Victorian era when young lovers had to be careful about what they wrote and clever in getting their message across to their sweethearts. Here's the code:
Upside down: I love you.
Sideways, head right: Love and kisses.
Sideways, head left: I'll never leave you.
Diagonal to the right: Marry me?
Diagonal to the left: Yes, I'll marry you.
Just be careful not to send a letter to the IRS with the stamp sideways, head right. Things could get strange.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii Description
Princess Peach has been kidnapped! Again! Everyone was celebrating the Princess' birthday when a giant birthday cake arrived... but then Bowser Jr. and the seven Koopalings popped out and kidnapped her! Mario, Luigi and two Toads make chase to rescue her once more. Will they succeed? New Super Mario Bros. Wii is a continuation of the Super Mario Bros. games. As with the original, players jump, dash and grab power ups such as the Super Mushroom and the the Fire Flower, which lets them throw fireballs at their foes. New powerups have been added too - the Propeller Hat allows players to zoom vertically up in the air, and then glide back down, the Ice Flower lets players freeze enemies into icy blocks, and the Penguin Suit gives them traction on ice as well as allowing them to belly slide. Yoshi, from Super Mario World makes a return, as well - players can ride him and he'll eat enemies and berries in levels. The Wii Remote's tilting feature is used to activate certain parts of levels - for example, jumping onto specific platforms and tilting the Wii Remote will angle the platform too. Another level has players aiming a light on a boat by using the Wii Remote so that they're not lost in the dark. Shaking the Wii Remote while wearing the Propeller Hat causes the player to fly straight up, while shaking it near objects picks them up or throws them. The game has a special feature known as a 'Super Guide' - when a player dies eight times in total in a level, a special block appears at the start of the stage the next time they play. If the player hits this block, Luigi will take over and play through the level, showing them how to complete it. This allows players to progress through the game even if they are having trouble on a particularly difficult level. Up to four players can play simultaneously. When playing together, as long as one person is on-screen in a level, players can keep returning in-game after they die by floating in a bubble which is then popped. If all players lose their lives, they are sent back to the map screen. Another mode, Coin Battle, has all players versus each other, with the aim being to pick up the most coins while heading toward the goal.

Sunderland have joined the race to sign Liverpool striker Christian Benteke, according to the Mirror.
Despite only signing for the Merseyside outfit twelve months ago the twenty-five year old has been strongly linked with a move away from Anfield, with Crystal Palace failing with an approach last month.
Everton are also keeping an eye of the Belgium international's situation though new Black Cats manager David Moyes is keen to steal a march on his old club by securing his services.
Benteke made forty-two appearances in all competitions last season, scoring ten goals but started just fourteen of Liverpool's Premier League games.
Most recently, the former Aston Villa man was competing at this summer's European Championships and was part of the squad that made the quarter finals.
In total, he has been capped twenty-six times for his country, scoring for them six times.

You know Big Papi crushes it on the field, but what's the Red Sox slugger like when he takes his spikes off? You'll find out in 2014 when MTV2 and MLB team up for a weekly series that will take fans inside the MLB Fan Cave and beyond for a look at what goes on when the cameras go off.
World Series MVP Ortiz and Pittsburgh Pirates All-Star centerfielder Andrew McCutchen will executive produce a new weekly, 30-episode series on MTV2 slated to kick off in April 2014. The show will be shot at the MLB Fan Cave in New York, a spot that mixes baseball with music, pop culture, media, interactive technology and art. You'll get to know ball players through interviews and features that will provide a look at their personalities and passions outside the diamond.
"Music is a passion of mine so when I was asked to be involved in a show that brings baseball to MTV, I jumped at it," said McCutchen. "It is going to be a lot of fun to show a different side of baseball and the players." Ortiz added, "Players want to be musicians and the musicians want to be players. So it's going to be pretty easy to get my friends in baseball to have some fun on MTV."
The series is the first effort from a new partnership between MTV and MLB that will produce on-air and online events that will air on multiple channels (MTV, MTV2, mtvU, MTV Hits and MTV Jams) and integrate MLB players into existing shows and events and also produce new specials and weekend programming. Details on future shows and specials will be announced at a later date.

Spring Outlook
We continue to monitor the weather and our rivers for changing conditions. We advise people to be cautious out there as things begin to thaw and water starts to flow into our roadways from fields, and as the rivers rise and ice begins to move.
We are meeting regularly with the scientists that predict our ice movement, as was the case yesterday with the River Flow Advisory Commission. Click here for information from that meeting.

So I'm told it's Thanksgiving tomorrow. I only know this because a few of my classmates are American; otherwise the holiday would have totally passed me by. I haven't been reading blogs too often lately because my laptop recently crashed (hence the lack of updates here; I'm working whenever I can from a uni computer) so haven't been keeping up to date on which recipes are trendy right now. But I do love a good slice of pumpkin pie (or two, or three) and if I can have it for breakfast, I will never say no.
Making your own pecan butter is easy: all you have to do is processor the pecan nuts in a high-speed blender or food processor until they turn into a creamy paste (this can take up to 15 minutes, depending on the power of your processor or blender).
50g (1/2 cup) porridge oats
125g (1/2 cup) pumpkin puree
200ml (just over 3/4 cup) of half water, half almond milk
2 tsp maple syrup
a handful of pecans
1 tsp allspice
1/2 tbsp almond or pecan nut butter
Pre-heat the oven to 180C (356F).
In an oven-proof bowl, combine the milk, water, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, spices and oats. Let the mixture stand so the oats can absorb the liquid whilst you prepare the toppings.
Decorate the porridge with pecans and a dollop of almond or pecan nut butter in the middle.
Bake the porridge in the oven for 15-20 minutes.
Let the bowl cool for 5 minutes before digging in.
Americans, what's your favourite thing to eat for Thanksgiving? I'm very curious as I know little about this holiday, so spill the beans 🙂

The sequential order of the Aura-Soma Equilibrium Bottles, which yields their numbers, is an important aspect in understanding the knowledge system they reveal. The numbers give different information from the colours, as if we were viewing the same inner concept from a different viewpoint.
Let us illustrate this by putting a crystal on the north-east corner of a table:
Somebody sitting north of the table would say, "The crystal is on the left." Somebody sitting east of the table would say, "The crystal is on the right." Both are correct. They are just different viewpoints of the same situation. Together they enable a two-dimensional view, as seen from above.
Thus studying the numbers of the Equilibrium Bottles looks from another direction at the essence of what the bottles portray. This concept enables us to see extra information when reading a four-bottle selection.
(You may be familiar with this already.)
Add the digits of each single bottle until you reach a single digit, revealing what is "hiding behind" the selected bottle.
Some bottles reach a single digit immediately; for instance bottle 18 would reduce to a 9 directly. So bottle 9 shows an otherwise hidden aspect within bottle 18.
Other bottles need more than one transaction; for instance bottle 95 would reduce to a 14, then the 14 would reduce to a 5. So bottle 14 shows an aspect of bottle 95, then bottle 5 shows us the innermost aspect within that.
The principle here shows us that there are number-related "families" of bottles within the great family of the overall sequence. The bottles in the family of the 6 would be: 6, 15, 24, 33, 42, 51, 60, 69, 78, 87, 96, and 105 because all these numbers reduce to 6. So these bottles would show the theme of the 6. Some people may even call it the evolutionary story of the 6. Within this family there is a sub-family of the 15 including 69, 78, 87, and 96 which reduce to a 15 before they reduce to the 6. Higher numbers (without bottles) would be part of the sub-family of the 24 if their reduction route went through that number, as in the case of 879 or 3, 768 for instance.
We need an example selection to illustrate this, so I will use the selection 60, 48, 69, 54, which is a very old workshop selection used with the permission of the person concerned.
The number of the first selected bottle (soul bottle) added to the second selected bottle (mission) shows the soul's view of the mission.
In our example, 60+48 = 108 would show the soul's view of the mission. As we do not have a bottle 108, we reduce it (1+0+8=) to 9. Thus bottle 9 shows the soul's view of the mission in the case of our example. So in this case the Crystal Cave of the Heart within the Heart brings a hermitic quality to the soul's approach to the mission. Other than this hint, I will not be giving interpretations of the example we are using, because this article should not become over-specific. Notice that the 9 is what the fourth selected bottle (54) would reduce to individually.
The numbers of the first three selected bottles (soul, mission, and present) when added show the story so far.
In our example, 60+48+69 = 177 would show the story so far. This reduces to 15 and then to 6. Notice that bottle 15 (clear/violet) is a colour inversion of the selected bottle 48 (violet/clear). Notice also that the 6 is what the first and third selected bottles reduce to individually. The first reduction of the second selected bottle (48 reducing to 12 clear/blue) shows the colour inversion of the first selected bottle (60 blue/clear). Such direct relationships between the selected and hidden bottles are common when using this technique, especially if the selection is one which the subject has stayed with for some time.
Adding the numbers of all four selected bottles shows the overall picture.
In our example 60+48+69+54 = 231 which reduces to 6. This is the third time that bottle 6 has been revealed by the example selection.
An experienced numerologist would identify that 231 is all the numbers from 1 to 21 added together. Because of this, the older traditions of numerology would call 231 the " secret key" to the 21. So now bottle 21 reveals an inner aspect of the overall picture. You can work out the other "secret keys" for yourself by progressively adding all the numbers from 1 upwards. [1+2=3 so 3 is the secret key to the 2. Then 1+2+3=6 so 6 is the secret key to the 3. And so on...] There will be more about this in a future article.
Adding only the numbers of the first and third selected bottles shows the soul's view of the here-and-now.
Example 60+69 = 129 which reduces to 12. This is the second time the 12 has been revealed, and it is the colour inversion of the soul bottle.
Adding only the first and fourth bottles shows the soul's view of the future.
In the example 60+54 = 114 which reduces to 6 - the third time the 6 has been revealed here. Such repetition, whilst not unusual, can show a purposeful integrity of structure in the selection.
How is this technique affected when bottle zero is one of the selected bottles? Clearly zero plus any number is the same number, so at first sight bottle zero may appear to have no effect. In reality, bottle zero brings a meditative quality to the concept being examined, and it incorporates a special awareness of the Source. So whilst it does not change the number to which it is added, it does change the viewpoint from which it should be seen.
You may wish to include the examination of return bottles, if your Aura-Soma training has reached that level. So in the example we used, you would also interpret the fact that the 6 returns as bottle 84. This would especially be worth doing for hidden bottles which occur several times.
In a workshop, or when you are experimenting with and practicing this technique in private or with a fellow therapist, it is helpful to lay out all the additional bottles which are revealed. When one bottle occurs many times you would find yourself resorting to paper substitutes. The technique does need some practice before using it "live".
Please never lay out any extra bottles during a reading for a normal client. It would cause them serious confusion.
The easiest way to use the technique during a normal reading is, when the client has completed their selection but before you start to interpret it, just say "I need to do a couple of calculations" and work out all the additions and reductions on a piece of paper which is not shown to the client. This short delay is accepted by clients as part of the process, so it does not interrupt the flow of your reading. Thus you have all the extra information you want, and the client is not faced with anything they have not selected.
This month's question is:
What do you feel about the ethical aspects of digging for extra information which the client has not chosen to reveal overtly?
Send your answer to email@example.com if you would like to. A future feature will publish some of the answers of the widest general interest- with your name credited to honour your copyright.

Pretoria, South Africa 2010
Hardcover, 17 x 24 cm, 400 pages, 700 colour photographs
Part of the beauty of florist flowers lie in their extreme diversity, an aspect that is exploited by breeders in their efforts to create an ever-increasing number of colourful and often bizarre new forms. This is at the same time a frustrating aspect of florist flowers, as it is practically impossible to account for the full diversity in a single book. There are many thousands of cultivars for roses alone! The best the authors could do within the limitation of 400 pages was to provide an overview at the species level. Some exceptions were made in cases where there are very distinct cultivar groups that most people would recognise as separate entities. For many of the 330 entries, the original parentage of the commercially used flower has been obscured by a long period of hybridisation and back-crossing, often involving several species. In the treatment of species they have followed the internationally accepted binomial Latin names given to plants. For all the species, the best-known common name or names are also provided. By giving critical information in a user-friendly way, Johannes Maree and Ben-Erik van Wyk hope that Cut Flowers of the World will not only inform but also add to the joy and pleasure of giving and receiving flowers.

Ovulation is the release of a female ovum cell by the ovary in females. Ovulation is required for normal fertility and conception. Failure to ovulate is called anovulation and is one cause of female infertility. Ovulation is not always known to the woman, but in some women it causes ovulation bleeding (mild vaginal bleeding) and/or mittelschmerz, a type of temporary abdominal pain.

Thought Forum™
Because building Human Capital is essential to Wealth Regeneration®, we're committed to delivering world-class Wealth Regeneration resources and ideas to our clients at our private Thought Forum™ workshops and presentations. While these events are available only to LNWM clients and their guests, we are pleased to share key ideas from recent events.
Back to What We Think.
LNWM's 2019 Thought Forum™ provided a glimpse into the challenges and tremendous rewards of a well-planned public space. The topic: how Seattle's new Waterfront Park – 20 acres from Pioneer Square through Belltown — can be turned into a space that allows for new economic opportunity, social inclusiveness, and environmental stewardship.
At LNWM's 2015 Thought Forum we explored the importance of well-planned and programmed public spaces for the health of a community with Robert Hammond and James Corner (watch videos below or download recap). Seattle has an incredible opportunity to redesign 26 blocks of prime public space near the waterfront currently occupied by the viaduct. Listen to what local leaders think (in the videos below) about the importance of parks, including the potential our new waterfront park presents for our city and region.
Acclaimed historian and best-selling author Dr. Douglas Brinkley inspired us to think big when it comes to preserving the Northwest's natural bounty.
What is your life calling? This was the unique challenge that Jane Pauley issued to the 300 multi-generational attendees at Laird Norton Tyee's 2012 Thought Forum™. If you are intrigued by the topic of finding new ways to achieve fulfillment, we recommend you read the recap of Jane's presentation.
Laird Norton Tyee hosted a Family Business Thought Forum™ in 2009, which featured the world renowned expert in family enterprises, John Ward. John's discussion centered on family business perpetuity and also explored the family-related challenges that lead many family businesses to fail as well as the advantages family businesses have that make them more successful and enduring than their nonfamily-owned counterparts.
Laird Norton Tyee's 2009 Thought Forum™ featured one of the country's leading voices in philanthropy, Lucy Bernholz. During her lecture, she discussed the latest trends and innovations in the philanthropy world, her thoughts on sustainable giving in an economic downturn, and the place "collusion" has in making the world a better place.
Laird Norton Tyee's 2010 Thought Forum™ featured the best-selling author of "True North" and Harvard Business professor, Bill George. To a rapt audience, Bill imparted practical how-to guidance on following your internal compass to arrive at your next great success.
Laird Norton Tyee's 2011 Thought Forum™ featured the founder and director of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's AgeLab, Dr. Joseph F. Coughlin. Throughout the evening, Dr. Coughlin shared his award-winning insights on how demographic shifts, social trends and technology all need to converge in order to achieve 100 years of quality living.

Everyone wishes for a bit more extra money after all the bills are paid. Although many people blame their lack of money on taxes, that isn't usually where most of the money goes. As it turns out, many Americans allocate a lot more money than the experts recommend for the basics like car payments and rent.
What Percentage of an Average Person's Salary Goes to Taxes?
The average effective tax rate in 2011 was 14.8 percent, according to the Congressional Budget Office, the lowest since 1950. Of these tax dollars, 26.3 percent goes to defense, 24.3 percent to health care, 4.8 percent to education, 2.1 percent to energy and the environment, and 2.0 percent to immigration, law enforcement and justice.
What Percentage of Salary Should Be Housing?
The idea that "affordable housing" means no more than about 30 percent of a family's gross income was initially based on 1981 changes to the 1968 Housing and Urban Development Act. Although this rule of thumb was intended to help low-income families, the idea that you should spend no more than about 30 percent of your income on housing has become common in both the rental and mortgage industries. Despite this, in the early 21st century in the United States, 46 percent of renters and 37 percent of owners spend more than 30 percent of their gross income on housing.
What Percentage of Your Annual Salary Should You Put Toward a Vehicle Purchase?
Including your housing costs and all your other loans -- such as credit cards, student loans, or car payments -- you should be paying no more than 36 percent of your gross income on debt, according to Consumer Reports. For example, if your mortgage payment eats up 30 percent of your monthly gross income, even if you have no other debts, that leaves only 6 percent of your gross income for car payments.
What Percentage of State Tax Do People Pay on a Salary?
State income tax varies by your state and income level. Alaska, Florida, Nevada, South Dakota, Texas, Washington and Wyoming have no state income tax at all, but the average state income tax rate in 2012 for those states that do impose a state tax is about 4.86 percent. Oregon has the highest average state tax -- a whopping 8.56 percent.

The Semillon or Sémillon grape is, in my opinion, a hugely under-rated white grape variety. Admittedly Semillon wine is not going to appeal to people who prefer their white wines to be very light in colour and body but it has a lot going for it, not least the fact that it is so versatile. The Semillon grape produces:
- complex, fuller-bodied, still dry wines and
- rich sweet wines plus
- it blends well, especially with Sauvignon Blanc and particularly in Bordeaux and in Australia.
It's time to give Semillon a chance ... just find the right style of Semillon for you - see my Semillon wines below.
If you are a fan of Chardonnay give a 100% varietal like Wally White a try or the Boekenhoutskloof Semillon which has a splash of Sauvignon Blanc to help the acidity. If you are more of a Sauvignon Blanc fan, try a Sauvignon-Semillon blend e.g. from Bordeaux. And don't forget the classic sweet, dessert wine.
I can't think of many white wine drinkers who wouldn't enjoy one of these styles.

(CNSNews.com) -- In reaction to the arrest and imprisonment today of county clerk Kim Davis because she refused to grant marriage licenses to homosexual couples, Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky.) said it was "absurd to put someone in jail for exercising their religious liberty." He added that the heavy-handed "bully force" step by the state in this case was "a huge mitake" and would set the "movement back" for those trying "to redefine marriage."
Kim Davis is a clerk for the state of Kentucky in Rowan County. She has steadfastly refused to grant marriage licenses to homosexual couples because of her Christian beliefs. Federal District Court Judge David L. Bunning rejected Davis's appeal to her religious faith, saying it was "simply not a viable defense." Davis was arrested and imprisoned today, Sept. 3.
Asked by CNN's Brianna Keilar for his reaction to Davis's incarceration, Sen. Paul said, "I think it's absurd to put someone in jail for exercising their religious liberty. If you want to convince people that same-sex marriage is something that's acceptable, I would say try to persuade people."
"But if we're going to use the federal government and we're going to get involved in every state locality, you know what's going to happen?" he said. "It's going to harden people's resolve on this issue. They'll be no open-mindedness on this."
"I think it's a real mistake to be doing this," said Sen. Paul. "I think what's going to happen as a result of this is states and localities are just going to opt-out of the marriage business completely."
"This is really the problem when from on high, from the federal level, we decide to get involved in a situation that has always, throughout our history, been a local issue," said the senator.
