We had a wonderful day's fishing with Russ, the skipper. His boat is well set up, he was very knowledgable, extremely pleasant and gracious, and very keen that we all had a good day and caught fish. We caught lots of fish and some to keep, which Russ filleted and which have now been enjoyed. Delicious! Russ was great with...
Great day out on the water with Russ!
He was all about making our day memorable and enjoyable. His knowledge of the area and fishing spots was the tops and we could not have had a more relaxed and fun day!
The equipment supplied was of high quality and the memories we made will last a lifetime.
Great day out fishing with Russ, he said it was slow, but it wasn't for us. We caught lots of terakihi. Russ was great, lots of laughs and even a private toilet, what more could you want. He filleted all fish, and we didn't come across a single bone.🐟🐬🐳
Three fishing trips with Fat Boy Charters have all delivered plenty of fish and a tremendous day in the hands of a really nice fishing guide. Russ always makes sure he delivers the fishing experience we are looking for. His boat is fast and functional, and his gear is excellent. He plans the day for the best chance of success....

The main objective of the project including hotel and business center is to revitalize this area has been abandoned as an island within the urban fabric that has little to do with the plot. As mentioned, the track layout and its current near halt station has created a rift between the two parts of the city. The proposal is based on interconnect isolated areas based on the following actions:
- Excavation of the routes and commuter AVE.
- Recovery and rehabilitation of the existing station of a high architectural value.
- Performing a transport interchange station centered in connection with:
§ Cercanías Train.
§ Bus station.
§ Subway.
§ Private parking for 900 cars
- Generating an annex to the Tierno Galván Park to connect with this and save the gap with the street Ramirez de Prado using different platforms.
- Creation an unique building to focus in Center bussines, hotel, the access to cercanías, AVE, and subway use the station like a conection with the old and new building.

Special bike race for special needs school
Simon Mottram, a successful businessman and father of an autistic teenager, has revived a storied cycling relay, writes Jeanette Wang
Related topics
Success can easily go to one's head, particularly for the boss of a company that's gone from zero to £18 million (HK$208 million) in sales in a short time. But there's another side to Simon Mottram's life: when he's not running Rapha, the London-based cycling apparel company he founded in 2004, he's running after his son Oscar.
"Oscar requires 24-hour-a-day care," says Mottram, 47, of his autistic 18-year-old son, the eldest of three children. "He has no sense of danger, he's not verbal, he's in nappies. So while he's a very happy, nice guy to have around, you have to be thinking about him all the time. It is constant attention, constant stress … it's quite a grind."
Mottram speaks openly about his son, but this wasn't always the case. "What we were doing with Rapha was so different from my life with [Oscar], I didn't want to use it as some kind of soap box."
But this year, he's found a reason to comfortably talk about both: the Rapha Bordeaux to Paris, a 600-kilometre team relay ride that aims to raise £250,000 for Ambitious about Autism, the charity behind Oscar's school - TreeHouse in north London.
Mottram says he always wanted Rapha to do some charity work, but turned down all pitches seeking the brand's involvement - until someone from Ambitious about Autism came to him last year for ideas and support for a fundraising ride. "We could only be involved if we could make it relevant for Rapha," says Mottram.
Bordeaux to Paris, a classic cycling race that ran from 1891 to 1988, tied in with Rapha's focus on cycling's rich history and lifestyle. This year marks the 25th anniversary of the last race, which was stopped due to lack of funding, and the 50th anniversary of Briton Tom Simpson's victory.
"We thought it'd be nice to resurrect one of these lost classic races and use it as a vehicle to raise money for the charity," says Mottram. If all goes to plan, he hopes to hold a "lost classic" charity event every year.
Participants pay a £975 entry fee and must raise £2,500 each. In teams of four, they must finish the ride in 24 hours. There is space for 25 teams.
The money goes to providing lifelong learning and support for young people and adults with autism, plus campaigning for greater understanding and provision. Mottram says support and funding for autism in Britain is "very thin", although it's still pretty good relative to funding in other European countries.
"We had to go fight the council to get them to fund [Oscar's] special education. They wanted to put him into a regular special needs school, and he needs specific care. So we took them to court and that cost us money and time," says Mottram.
"[Support] is getting better for small children because there have been lots more cases of autism in kids born in the past 10 years or so. But what happens when they become adults? I think nobody has worked it out."
Oscar, who was diagnosed at 20 months, has a developmental age of under two and is on the "more disabled end of the spectrum", says Mottram.
Life with Oscar is challenging, but Mottram says it can be incredibly rewarding, too. "He's very loving and takes huge pleasure in us and his siblings and music and going outside… Overall, it's not a terrible place to be. The problem is all in our heads; Oscar is actually really happy."
Work and cycling provide an escape for Mottram, who has been obsessed with the sport since he first watched the Tour de France on television at age 18. He rides three times a week, including a four-hour ride on Wednesday mornings.
"[Cycling] gives me perspective and complete distance, and that's really good," he says. "It's harder for my wife [Lucy] because she doesn't work … it's much harder for her to remain positive, I think."
Life with Oscar has changed their approach to raising their other two children, Connie, 16, a sprint athlete, and Felix, 11.
"We want our children to be happy and Oscar has really brought us that. We want them to fulfil their potential," says Lucy. "But it's also made us look closely at our lives and enjoy the good bits. We take very little for granted."
Mottram's personal life has helped keep his professional life on track. "It definitely helps me to be focused on Rapha being successful," he says, "because if I'm going to take all this time and energy and put it into something other than the family, it's got to be really good. And I'm sure that's given me more drive than I would've had otherwise."

Recent US news that China's bombers are on High Alert has excited many that China is about to reign in Kim Jung Un in North Korea to stop his military build up of Nuclear weapons. But this may be to the contrary. Most know little about China's 1961 military alliance with the dictatorial government. China may be in fact preparing for a defensive posture against a US lead attack on North Korea

China Has Military Alliance with North Korea

Not sure this really would be in Russia's best interest in the long term as it only strengthens China. As much as Russia may be willing to make deals and work with other country's, it's not about advancing these country power in the world over their own. It could be Russia is just looking for a little Ukrainian payback and to end the Crimea discussion once and for all. Putin is layers deep in his moves and one should remember to look deeper if they want to see if they can anticipate his next one.
This truly a stupid speculation based on the cold war doctrine, the writer does not understand how Russia has totally changed/transformed from USSR of the past, and I am very sure people would find out what Putin is up to very soon – against all the evil forces in this world which include a nuclear North Korea.
"Larenzo with Already Happened has reported a massive military movement by Russia to the border of North Korea"
Yes actions speak louder than words and Putin acts like a coward in Syria and is feeding us a 1984 play script with the west so who's to say this build up is not to help North Korea and not Russia setting up ready to attack China.
Russia in about 1937 signed a selff defence treaty with Germany and look how that turned out and Russia is very slow when it comes to taking action against the west and keeps turning it's s400s off in Syria because they are play acting and could clean house in Syria in days if they wanted too.
I have at leaast ten reasons that indicate to me that it's a 1984 play script when it comes to Russia and Russia before the election was doing all it could to make Trump look stupid and put him down in the polls and i think you will see the same with Le Pen vote in France where russia keeps getting the polls wrong.
Western globalists have been trying to wrap a chain around Russia since before the fall of the Soviet Union. They have many troops from NATO countries on Russia's Western border. On Russia's weak underbelly Turkey is a member of NATO and its flip-flopping president tends to serve Western interests more than Russia's. Alaska makes a good launch area for Russia's NE border. North Korea borders Russia, and if the US and its South Korean allies took it, NATO could move tanks, rockets and troops there, ready to invade.
That's why Russia will defend North Korea. Putin would rather border with a near-impotent, nonthreatening neighbor than NATO and its globalist allies.
The project for a new American century, military hegemony over the rest of this World, by the Neocons (Trotskyites). A new world order, the prison planet. They think they got the upper hand yet, and must use that gain to usher in the new world order with a first strike, full out nuclear strike. You ever read about the Bell and how the Nazi's willingly traded the nuclear technology for? freedom perhaps. Who will return and claim this Earth after these morons killed themselves and 97% of the Earths population? Who got bases on the Moon?
If "we" can not solve our problems upon this Earth it is probably for the better. I say: I am not giving up, I want to live my life-time, I say Remove the Psychopaths from power. (freemasonry been used to lift these divisive forces up in the hierarchy)
BB reported yesterday that China will not allow NK to fall into US hands and have US at its borders. They are doing this for a massive takeover of NK and SK should they pound each other to death.
However, I have repeatedly said none of this will happen because THEE Gospel must be preached into NK and that won't happen if there is war and NK is devastated.
However, it certainly looks like now it is at the stage of hearing about "wars and rumours of wars" so it IS possible a war could take place. Possibly a limited one, hopefully.
But, only to make way for THEE Gospel to get preached to the last hermit kingdom of time. Then the end shall come….

Hi guys!! So today I have a slightly different Digit-al Dozen post for you. Some of you may already be aware if you read her blog, but one of our amazing members, Leslie of work / play / polish, is leaving the DD group. We are all very sad to see her go, as she is a lovely person and a talented nail artist.
We decided to put together this link up as a bit of a send-off for her. So here is my recreation of one of Leslie's gorgeous DD manis!
Above is Leslie's original mani, which she created for our Digit-al Dozen Does It All AGAIN feature. This was for the tape mani day, and she used some pretty jewel tone polishes from Pure Ice to create the look. Find out the exact color info at her original post.
I didn't have those exact polishes, but I had some similar jewel tone ones. What you see here is two coats of Gina Tricot Alexis as the base, which was then randomly taped off with striping tape, and then painted over in patches. For the patches I used Zoya Suri, China Glaze Tongue & Chic, and China Glaze Scandalous Shenanigans.
Anyone who knows me will know that I despise tape manis, especially those done with striping tape. The always look so awesome when they are done, but the tape is just too fiddly for me. I also have to admit that I have a bit of hyperhidrosis in my hands and feet, so the tape often doesn't stick the way it should due to that. I think that actually has quite a bit to do with why tape is so frustrating for me.
Anyway, this time I got the tape to work, and I am so satisfied with how this turned out!
(with flash)
So there you have it. I hope I've done Leslie proud with this mani. We sure will miss you participating in DD weeks with us! You'll always be a member in our hearts though, and I hope you get to jump in with a mani every once in a while. :)
Some of the other members have also done tribute posts, which you can check out below. There is also going to be a good-bye Leslie post on the official Digit-al Dozen blog.

"Everyone expects a 0.25 per cent hike in interest rates," said Keith Edwards, a strategist at American Express Asset Management. "But if they were to talk about the rate rise as the beginning of a trend, then markets would react more negatively."
The Nikkei 225 average fell 1.7 per cent last week - its first weekly decline in three weeks - to close at 17,436.52. The exporter-led, 1 per cent decline on Friday accounted for most of the fall.
Bonds are likely to fall as investors brace themselves for a possible weak demand for bond sales this week. Signs of economic recovery will raise the chance that the central bank will cut short its low-rate policy. "More slippage is likely as investors remain concerned over auction results," said Xinyi Lu, chief strategist at Paribas Capital Markets. "People are concerned about how long the central bank will keep rates low."
The new benchmark 10-year bond fell, pushing the yield up 3 basis points to 1.77 per cent. The appetite for equities and bonds is not expected to be strong before the 5 July release of the Bank of Japan's quarterly tankan survey of business confidence.
The surprise 1.9 per cent growth in first-quarter gross domestic product is expected to increase business confidence. That could lead to the buying of companies that depend for profit growth on the well-being of the domestic economy.
"The tankan has been distorted by the GDP numbers, and the markets are getting braced for better than expected figures," said Marshall Gittler, currency strategist for Bank of America, Hong Kong. "If you are a small company things do look better for you."
Investors will focus on industrial production figures and household spending for May, which the government releases on Tuesday. Economists forecast an average 0.7 per cent rise in industrial production from the month before, and a 0.6 per cent rise in household spending month on month.
The market is unlikely to rise above 17,900 this week as institutional investors take profit on their cross-shareholdings, or long-held shares of companies with whom they have close ties.

This tutorial has step by step pictures showing how you can weave star shaped traditional plastic wire baskets that were common in India a couple of decades ago. (நட்சத்திர வடிவில் பிளாஸ்டிக் சரடு கூடை பின்னுவது எப்படி).
Since I wanted this to be a very detailed tutorial, I have added about 50 pictures. So it might take a little longer to load this page.
If you grew up in India before the advent of plastic carry bags, you might have seen these. These baskets were used to carry groceries.
This basket is slightly more complicated than
1. Diagonally woven plastic wire shoulder bag
2. Box knot Rectangle basket / koodai
So if you are entirely new to basket weaving, you might want to try one of those two projects first.
Things Needed
I have used 2 colors to make this basket. You can use as many as you want.
We will need a total of 40 pieces of wire (20 yellow and 20 green in my case). Each piece is 3 meters long. The tension of the wire has to be correct while making knots. If you are new, take 3.25 meters of the green wire as it travels longer distance.
Now we will make the base of the basket
(கூடை அடி போடுவது எப்படி)
After cutting the pieces, I have used the remaining yellow wire as the running wire to make the base of the basket. This basket is different from the other two baskets that we saw earlier. Here we will be using running wire only for the base. The sides of the basket will be woven diagonally like this sling bag.
To make the base, we will be knotting the cut wires to the running wire.
Leave 50 cms of running wire and start knotting the cut wires. I will be adding 10 yellow wires followed by 20 green wires followed by 10 more yellow wires.
The tutorial for this knot can be found here in a separate article (to prevent this tutorial from getting too long).
Continue adding the cut wires. Fold the cut wire into half and knot it with the running wire.
Begin adding the green wires.
After making 20 knots with green wire, add 10 more knots with yellow wire.
Allow 50 cms and cut the running wire. At this point, your basket's base should look like this.
IMPORTANT: The first line should be the middle line of the base.
Subsequent lines in the base will be added on both sides of this middle line. Or you won't have enough wire to finish one side of the basket.
Now we will make the second row. Allow 3 inches of running wire and start making the square knots like shown below.
Now we have reached the end of the second line.
Instead of cutting the running line, turn it around and make a knot with the first line. You will see a triangle forming.
Go around the middle line (first line) and make another knot to start the 3rd line. Again you will see a triangle forming.
Close up view. This will be the first knot of the 3rd line.
You will see 2 triangle shaped spaces in between the knots. This means we have successfully turned the corner on this side of the basket.
Continue the 3rd line.
We have now reached the end of the 3rd line.
Just like we did on the other side, turn around and make a knot with the end / side wire of the middle line.
First triangle on this side has been formed.
Now loosen the first knot of the second line to allow the running wire to pass through it on the back side. Include the running wire and add the knot that you unraveled again.
This is slightly tricky but don't worry, the next two pictures are close up images and you will be able to see what I mean.
Second triangle has been formed in this side.
You can see the wire passing through the backside of that knot.
We have now turned the corners of the base and also completed 3 lines. The difficult part is over. The rest of the lines will simply be added in circles.
Continue with the 4th line.
Your base will look like this at this point. There will be two short wires (50 cms) on the sides. They will be used only in the base of the basket.
You can see the corner of the base here.
Since we added 20 green knots in the middle, the standard practice is to have 20 lines in the base of the basket. So add 10 lines on each side of the first line of the base.
Weaving the sides of the basket
Now we have completed the base of the basket. We won't be needing the running wire anymore. Leave 3 inches and cut it off.
Now take the 10th and 11th green wire and make a knot. It will be right in the middle of the basket.
Like we did for the diagonally woven sling bag, we will continue to knot wires that intersect each other like shown below. This will create diamond shaped patterns in the basket.
The diamond is growing. At the same time, can you see the corners of the basket getting pulled up? They are no longer sitting on the floor.
Close up view.
Green diamond is done. Continue to weave all the lines from this side.
You can see the yellow diamond forming above the green diamond.
One side is done. Like I mentioned above, the short wires on the sides of the first line of the base will not be used for the sides of the basket.
Repeat the same for the other side of the basket.
Second side is growing.
Second side has been completed.
Joining the two sides of the basket
Now we will join the two sides and also form the star shape.
Ignore the short wires and make a knot between the two sides. The hanging short wire will be tucked into this knot later.
Continue making knots with all the green wires.
You can see the pointed star shape emerging.
Repeat on the other side.
Once all the points of the stars are completed, tuck the wires in. Cut them at an angle and it will be easier to lace them through the knots.
One side done.
Second side is getting tucked in.
Do the same for the green wires. The green wire travels longer from the middle so you will notice that we used up more of the green wires than the yellow wires.
The basket will look like a square box on the inside.
If you liked this tutorial, please share it with your friends.

PEOPLE & PLACES in North America
- ALBA - IIIaf Bodil Brændstrup
In telling these stories about people and places in North America I would like to pay tribute to all the fascinating, welcoming, caring and loving people, who made my three years in North America an experience for life.At the same time, it was a plunge from post-war Europe into the materially advanced Canada and USA, who had not experienced war or occupation on their own soil. However, I also met men and women, who were marked with experiences of combat or imprisonment in Italy, France, Germany and probably the worst in Asia, and in many cases children, parents or spouses living with the loss of their loved ones, not only in World War II, but also for Americans the Korean War. Alba must take a stand and decides to return to Europe.

OCZ Storage Solutions, a subsidiary of Toshiba, has a new entry into the burgeoning field of low-cost consumer TLC (triple-level cell) NAND SSDs: the Trion 150. Featuring a new (and somewhat mysterious) Toshiba controller backing up also new Toshiba 15nm TLC NAND, the Trion 150 is aimed squarely at the consumer who's been waiting for prices on larger SSDs to drop to this level. Historically, drives based on TLC NAND have suffered from significant performance and durability compromises. Benchmark Reviews will run this drive through our gamut of tests to see if these issues are still a factor you should be aware of.

Most carports feature an overhang or ledge that provides birds with an inviting spot to build their nests. This can lead to droppings on your concrete and your cars, territorial birds harassing you and your pets and an unsightly build-up of nesting material. While it is relatively easy to knock down nests and drive birds away, keeping them from coming back can be a frustrating task.

Things you need

- Mirrors
Show MoreHide
- 1
Knock down any existing bird nests using a broom or other long pole. Sweep away as much nesting material as possible. Wash the area clean of mud and dirt using a garden hose.
- 2
Spray vertical surfaces with non-stick cooking spray. This will prevent mud and other nest materials from sticking and discourage swallows from nesting. Reapply cooking spray at the beginning of every spring and as needed to discourage new arrivals.
- 3
Stretch netting across rafters to deny birds access to the underside of your carport. If your rafters are flush with the ceiling, use netting to create 45-degree slopes over any ledges.
- 4
Place mirrors flat against the wall at the end of any ledge. This will prevent many species from nesting within several feet, as they will perceive the ledge as being occupied.
Tips and warnings
- Some birds may be discouraged from nesting by using scare objects, such as silhouettes of hawks or owl statues. However, many birds quickly learn to ignore scare objects that are not moved regularly.
- Chemical bird repellents discourage nesting for a time but must be reapplied regularly to maintain their effectiveness.

Michele Kang
A visionary in the field of health information technology, Michele Kang founded Cognosante in 2008 to address a critical gap she had identified in the health IT market—the need for a smart, nimble company, unencumbered by legacy systems and unafraid to challenge accepted wisdom. Under her leadership, Cognosante has emerged as one of the most trusted partners to Federal and state health agencies, growing significantly year over year.
One of the inaugural members of 100 Women Leaders in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM), Michele was honored as 2015 EY Entrepreneur Of The Year® for the Washington, DC, region, then went on to win the national award for the Services category. Also in November 2015, Michele was named Executive of the Year among contracting organizations with revenues of $75 million to $300 million during the 13th Annual Greater Washington Government Contractor Awards™. In 2012, she received Mosaic Woman Trailblazer Award by Diversity Woman in recognition of her outstanding accomplishments and leadership in business.
Michele created the Cognosante Foundation in 2012 to spread the benefits of Cognosante's growth and success to a number of deserving causes. The Foundation's focus is to help young people, the underprivileged, and veterans who have fallen on hard times to develop critical skills and competencies to become productive contributors to society while having fulfilling professional careers for themselves.
Prior to founding Cognosante, Michele served as vice president and general manager of Northrop Grumman's Health Solutions, where she built a health business that provided mission-critical, enterprise-wide health applications, interoperable architecture, and large-scale systems integration and engineering to leading health organizations.
Michele received a Bachelor's degree in Economics from the University of Chicago and a Master's degree in Public and Private Management from the Yale School of Management.
As an entrepreneur and CEO in a STEM field, the most frequently asked questions I receive tend to revolve around a few themes: how did you get where you are, what would you tell other women striving to succeed in a STEM field, and how are you contributing to the STEM ecosystem? The questions are different, but the answers share very common threads.
First: Trust your Gut.
Without a doubt, the most important advice I can offer any professional – female or male – is to trust your gut and follow your passion and instinct.
Growing up in South Korea, I knew I had a deep aptitude for math and economics, and I believed I had the ability to lead. Yet even though I was at the top of my class, I was told the best I could hope for was to be hired as the assistant to a CEO. Moving to the US to pursue my goals was not an easy decision, but I made it because I trusted my passion and instincts. It wasn't just my aptitude for math that drove me – it was my belief that being a woman wasn't a sufficient reason not to put that aptitude to work in the business world. Trusting that instinct brought me to the University of Chicago, and later Yale School of Management – two places where those math skills came in very handy.
I left Northrup Grumman to start Cognosante in the summer of 2008. Shortly thereafter, the economic downturn brought with it tremendous unanticipated challenges. Yet despite the rapid shift in economic climate and the associated challenges raising capital, I persevered because I trusted my vision. I knew I was making a sound bet – that Medicaid would be the center of gravity for healthcare transformation – and as a result, Cognosante was well-positioned to take advantage of market trends when the Affordable Care Act passed.
Innovation has become a buzzword over the past decade – we often get so focused on "innovating" as a concept that we miss the opportunity to innovate in action. I started Cognosante because I recognized that doing things "the way they've always been done" wasn't working – and further, that the market would eventually demand a solution that did. I knew that the innovative application of information technology was the key. Cognosante offers both solutions and services, but at our core we are an information technology company – and we are committed to using our subject matter expertise to drive the way technology is used in the healthcare system.
To institutionalize our culture of innovation, we established the Cognosante Solutions Lab in early 2015. The Lab's charter is to develop new, innovative approaches that enable public health programs to economically, efficiently support and manage the rapidly changing healthcare landscape – both today and tomorrow. Through relentless, disciplined experimentation, the Lab rapidly pilots and launches new solutions.
Complementing our own development efforts, Cognosante is also committed to building an "Innovation Ecosystem" consisting of investments in and partnerships with emerging companies that are building innovative, promising solutions in health IT.
As the founder and CEO of a technology-focused company, I see great opportunity in creating an environment for our employees that fosters success and rewards curiosity and innovation. Our employees know that we are committed to transforming our nation's healthcare system, and that they each have a role in moving us closer to that goal.
We have launched initiatives like a tuition reimbursement program for furthering education, the Cognosante Career Model to provide development and advancement opportunities, and the Cognosante Academy, which offers thousands of educational modules for self-directed professional development. We ask that our employees bring passion to what they do and take great pride in how they do it – and in return, we are committed to providing them with resources and opportunities to learn, grow, and innovate in a key STEM field.
In 2012, I created the Cognosante Foundation to spread the benefits of Cognosante's success to a number of deserving causes. While our focus is not limited to just STEM initiatives, a very strong, robust STEM theme runs through our efforts. Our first initiative was, in fact, to support Million Women Mentors (WMW), and we initiated a mentorship program, which encourages Cognosante employee participation in MWM-related activities for mentoring and tutoring.
Another major Foundation effort is with Young Invincibles (YI), a national millennial research and advocacy group. Last summer, YI and the Foundation jointly launched a fellowship program to provide primarily first-generation college students the opportunity to develop leadership skills, explore public policy issues, and expand professional networks ahead of graduation. The young women and men selected for the program joined the Cognosante team for our leadership summit in Baltimore last spring, interacting with our executive team and getting a taste of what it's like to be involved in an organization devoted to technology and healthcare. This year, we've expanded the program to an even greater number of students. Their enthusiasm, intellect, and curiosity are proof to me that the drive for and desire for STEM careers exists within the next generation – but it is up to us as leaders to provide opportunities like these – and like those above – to truly channel that drive.

Friday night was party night in Newport as a delirious 12,000 celebrated the Black and Ambers' long-awaited revival for hours after their triumph against the English giants Bath in the Heineken Cup.
Friday night was party night in Newport as a delirious 12,000 celebrated the Black and Ambers' long-awaited revival for hours after their triumph against the English giants Bath in the Heineken Cup.
Apologies to the players, but the widest and most deserving smile after the 28-17 victory was unmistakably that of Newport's chief executive and major investor, Tony Brown, an Englishman, who has transformed the club from bedraggled, lowly underachievers into a vibrant, family- orientated visitor attraction - with some fierce and exciting rugby to boot.
Friday's game was certainly no side-attraction. Before the match Brown, not for the first time, was questioning his sanity in investing a large chunk of his personal wealth, which is considerable and self-made, into a product that he cannot exert any control over for the important 80 minutes.
Immediately after the match, he confessed that he was beginning to understand the reason for his support. "Nights like tonight make all the worrying worth while, and it was a very emotional and fulfilling evening for the whole town. English clubs have denigrated Welsh rugby for too long, perhaps they should reconsider," he said.
The Newport players are quick to heap praise on Brown. Shane Howarth, the official man of the match, revealed that Brown had phoned him and the skipper, Gary Teichmann, that morning to thank them for their commitment to Newport, and to tell them how pleased he was to have them on board. No wonder both played major roles, helped by some cute man-management.
Teichmann was a colossus for Newport, as indeed was his counterpart, Dan Lyle, for Bath. The South African's cleaning up at line-out, kick-off and general loose play is monumental, let alone his astute workmanship and ball-handling abilities.
Alan Lewis, the coach, raves about the skipper's contribution and is delighted to have such a commanding player in charge. "He is a brilliant individual whose international career may be over, but who still lives for the big stage, and that is why God placed him on this earth," he said.
If Howarth was man of the match, and Teichmann the Newport talisman, where does that leave the second-row Ian Gough? He was unquestionably the game's shining light, soaring in line-outs and producing as many big hits in a match as I can ever remember. The earth shook whenever he struck, which partly explains the proliferation of Bath turnovers.
In fact, Bath had enough of the play to have won. Lyle and Ben Clarke gave it their best shots, while behind, Matt Perry and Gareth Cooper worked unflinchingly. Newport's defence won the day, though, with Gough their secret weapon.
Bath have arguably - and Leicester would argue - been Britain's leading force since the mid-Eighties. Their days are by no means numbered but they are vulnerable at the scrummage, which Newport exploited, and are in desperate need of a fit Mike Catt at No 10.
They played with greater pace than Newport, although the angles of running of the Newport backs, who have not always shone this season, were textbook as Matt Mostyn, Andy Marinos and Matt Pini caused havoc with the usually watertight Bath defence.
Newport scored three first- half tries, the crucial score coming seconds before half- time as Marinos crossed to add to Mostyn's and Matthew J Watkins' efforts. Cooper in the first half and Shaun Berne in the second scored for Bath, while Howarth's 15 points with the boot secured a famous victory.
Pool Four is now wide open, and all of Newport's opponents should beware. Tony Brown, has started enjoying himself and does not intend to stop yet.Reuse content

The Pulfrich Effect is an optical phenomenon where objects (or images) moving in a single plane can appear to be in 3D when the light reaching one eye is dimmed, e.g. with a filter. It also has a curious history – Carl Pulfrich (biography – pdf), who discovered the phenomenon, was blind in one eye and never observed it for himself, but nonetheless made many contributions to stereoscopy (the study of 3D vision) in both theory and the construction of apparatus.
Unlike other forms of stereoscopy, this only works with moving objects or animations; it does not work with still images! But what's really cool is that you don't need any special equipment to view it, beyond a piece of darkened glass or plastic to act as a filter. Videos exhibiting the Pulfrich effect can be viewed on a normal monitor or TV screen.
I've made my own Javascript animations as demos for the Pulfrich effect (posted as GitHub Gists and rendered by bl.ocks.org):
- Classic pendulum demonstration
- "Moving scenery" demonstration

Alabama is sitting on 19 commitments at the moment, but the art of flipping will likely dictate more spots than not going forward. It has actually cost the Crimson Tide of late, with Brandon Hill switching his commitment to Ole Miss last week and fellow offensive lineman Andy Dodd going from Alabama to LSU before football season.
Despite the blow, and potentially costly losses, 'Bama pushes forward with its own plethora of talented players committed elsewhere. See where each currently stands and which may be closer to flipping than originally considered.
Note: Players sorted by Scout.com rankings and ''commitment status'' will be gauged either solid, good, average, looking around or weak.
Reuben Foster, LB committed to Auburn
Commitment Status: Solid
The Latest: Georgia and Alabama continue to keep tabs on Foster, who was in Athens over the weekend. The news of Gene Chizik's firing of course puts a slight hit on his chances to sign with Auburn, but the assistant coaches are the story here. If most are retained, Foster will be tough to sway. As with all the Auburn pledges, stay tuned…
A'Shawn Robinson, DT committed to Texas
Commitment Status: Average
The Latest: Most feel that the massive impact player will stick with Texas, but he had planned an official visit to Alabama that fell through. Plans are to reportedly reschedule, but he has already been dropped down as a "soft" verbal to the Longhorns considering he has already visited Florida State officially since committing to UT.
Dee Liner, DT committed to Auburn
Commitment Status: Average
The Latest: Liner was in Tuscaloosa over the weekend for the Iron Bowl, and it's no secret that he is high on Alabama despite his pledge to its rival. Like several commits to AU, he's not divulging all of his plans, but it certainly bodes well for UA. Like Foster, the assistant coaches also play a big role in his status – so keep an eye out for the latest on which ones stick around.
Carl Lawson, DE committed to Auburn
Commitment Status: Looking
The Latest: Again, not everything is revealed this early in the post-Chizik process, but Lawson may have been looking around before the news broke on Sunday. Alabama is in the mix, but so are several schools including Clemson, where he took in their in-state rivalry over the weekend against South Carolina. Lawson is an edge rusher, purely, so there is some question as to where he would play at 'Bama – but his talent for pestering quarterbacks has resulted in the staff keeping tabs on him all along.
Jalen Ramsey, CB committed to USC
Commitment Status: Solid
The Latest: Ramsey informed Scout.com that he remains "100 percent" committed to USC, but is still scheduled to take several official visits, including one to Alabama in January. He is just looking to make sure he's making the right decision, but an unofficial out to L.A. this weekend only made his pledge stronger. Alabama has plenty of work to do if a flip is to happen here.
Austin Golson, OL committed to Florida State
Commitment Status: Good
The Latest: Golson has been quoted as to be very much looking forward to playing at FSU next season, but he has also maintained that Alabama has been on him throughout the process. He has talked about getting on campus for an official visit and fully expects the staff to continue to push through National Signing Day on February 6.
Johnathan Ford, RB committed to Vanderbilt
Commitment Status: Good
The Latest: Ford went back to Vandy two weeks ago and loved his time out there. The staff made it clear that he was a priority. Ford reaffirmed his pledge on the visit, and he's sold on the program. Still, Alabama remains somewhat in the picture although an offer has not come through yet from the Crimson Tide. A caveat with a UA offer, should it come, is that Nick Saban and company view Ford as a defensive back while most others are courting the four-star as a running back.
Holland Fisher, OLB committed to Virginia Tech
Commitment Status: Good
The Latest: Fisher took an official visit to Alabama earlier this fall, but things have been quiet since. He has established a relationship with some 'Bama pledges, particularly Demarcus Walker, who feels that the Tide has a great chance to land the versatile defender. Fisher may be ideal to the 2013 class should other linebackers like Foster and Matthew Thomas, who has yet to visit Tuscaloosa, elect to play elsewhere.
Hunter Henry, TE committed to Arkansas
Commitment Status: Average
The Latest: Henry knew the coaching change at Arkansas was coming, and has recently slowed things down. He took an official visit to Alabama and had a great time with Saban and company, though the Tide isn't alone in SEC schools with a shot at Henry along with Arkansas. Georgia remains somewhat in the mix, and a visit to Athens isn't out of the question. It may take some time to play out, but Henry wouldn't surprise many if he signed somewhere other than Arkansas in February.
Jeryl Brazil, CB committed to LSU
Commitment Status: Solid
The Latest: Brazil may be one of the longer shots on this list, but he has never ignored the interest from Alabama. He has also maintained that he wants to take an official visit to Alabama after football season, among other schools. Even with the plans, it would take a lot to get Brazil away from LSU considering how much he has been to Tiger Stadium this season and had nothing but great things to say about one of 'Bama's biggest rivals.
Jonathan Cook, CB committed to Nebraska
Commitment Status: Average
The Latest: In the summer, not long after committing to Nebraska, Cook told Scout that his pledge " was just a verbal." Still, he hasn't backed off from Nebraska since. He has talked about taking visits to other schools on an official basis, and has been to Alabama unofficially this season. Cook does not yet have an offer from UA, and most believe the staff will only offer if looking by some of the higher-rated players on this list at defensive back. So don't expect anything from Cook's camp any time soon.
Marquez White, CB committed to Florida State
Commitment Status: Good
The Latest: White is enamored with FSU and grew up a fan of the Noles, but he is from Alabama and his family has long been tied to the University of Alabama. The UA offer came after he committed to FSU, so things have been back-and-forth ever since. It's a two-horse race for White, and it could drag out all the way until February – that's how close it truly is.

About Keys & Needles/Worldslip:
Tania was just another coddled teenager, until the Slip changed everything. When supernatural forces invaded our world, she inherited unbelievable abilities that left her ostracized, hated, and Marked. Years later, living on the fringes of society, Tania and her exiled elf roommate Logan are happy to be left alone. But her foreboding prophetic dreams have other plans…
In her nightmares, she sees a mysterious hooded figure ripping children from their families. When her dreams start coming true, Tania and Logan must set out on a dangerous mission. One that could take them beyond anything they've ever imagined. One that could get them killed.
Keys and Needles is the first installment in the Worldslip series, a dystopian urban fantasy trilogy that asks how things would change if the worlds of folklore and mythology collided with ours. If you like snappy dialogue and fast-paced plots, it's for you.
You'll be able to buy Keys and Needle in summer 2016 – get a free pre-launch copy by signing up below:
About Michelle:
I live in Austin, TX, with my sweet Shiba and an evil-genius cat named after the Hulk. I've been writing since I was old enough to hold a pencil, and do it for a living (though in a very different capacity to what you'll read here). After reading I-don't-even-know-how-many fantasy books in my life, I decided to write one. Except instead of one, I'm writing a trilogy, because I am physically incapable of doing anything in tiny portions.
If you want to keep up with my antics, Twitter is probably the best place to do it. There's also Instagram and Snapchat (michelleshock).

This is a build up of a long out of Production vinyl figure model kit. This is the Screamin 1/4 scale Frankenstein figure kit. The figure is designed from the Robert DeNiro portrayal of Mary Shelly's Frankenstein. It is pretty big and stands about fifteen inches tall.
Now, this was one of the toughest build ups I have done in a while. A large gap on the back took some effort to enclose in order to give the figure a balanced look. Another concern was having to pour the plaster in each leg before gluing the two pieces together to form the lower half of this figure. Long story short, the way the dramatic pose is designed, it only allowed a very tiny gap on the right leg to enable you to actually pour plaster in if you were to glue the pieces together first.
Once the body was painted and both the washes and dry brush were done, I started to add actual stitches to both the upper arm and leg. Now, the kit has holes marked, but I actually took the smallest drill I had and put actual holes in the vinyl. I then took the black thread and carefully put stitching in.
Finally, I bought a simple wood base at the Hobby store and then took my drill out again and did a slight indentation in the wood. This left the pattern you see in the photo of what appears to be a rock base. I then took a "wash" of Grey acrylic to the top of the wood base. This was repeated because the wood tends to soak the color up. After this dried. I took a darker Grey wash through the indentation pattern.
Overall, a really cool looking figure kit.

Schultz: If Your Kid Plays Grand Theft Auto 'You're A Lousy Parent'
You certainly wouldn't be a conservative parent.
Check it out:
MSNBC's Ed Schultz took aim at video games Tuesday night by holding up the latest release of "Grand Theft Auto" as an example of "violent" video games that theoretically contribute to mass shootings like the Navy Yard rampage on Monday.
"It's got stealing cars, shooting people, and beating up hookers. If you're a parent and you allow your son or daughter to watch this – even if they're beyond 18-years-old, you're a lousy parent in my opinion. You play a role in this. We all play a role in this."

DBAL-I2 is rated out of 5 by 11.
Rated 5 out of 5 by LD1925 from Well built, very visible beams, compact. Just got my DBAL i2 yesterday, and already have it mounted and sighted. I purchased the green visible laser version. The visible laser is clear and very bright. The IR beam is also bright but does not produce an excess of bloom in NVDs. Great looking unit that seems very well made. Make sure to follow the directions when you sight it in! Battery compartment cap can be tricky to reinstall once you put the battery in...I find that one finger applying pressure on the cap and the other hand screwing it in works well. All in all very much worth the money.

Rated 2 out of 5 by I Masters from Problems but hoping Steiner will make it right. I bought the model with both the illuminator and the IR laser aimer. Have shot it twice with PVS14. I love how it has the integral push button "fire" button and can be used without pesky pressure pads. However, mine has something wrong with it. After about 20 rounds it totally dies. Won't turn on or work until I remove the battery entirely and reinstall a battery. Not battery issue as it happens with any type of battery. Not shooting a heavy weapon either - just a suppressed 300 Blackout with less recoil than an AR. As of now, with my particular unit I cannot trust it with my life which is a shame because if it worked properly it would be everything I could ask for. HOPING STEIN MAKES IT RIGHT.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Klem from Not bad Purchased an early release model. Excellent craftsmanship and kudos for the return to zero precision on the clamping mechanism. One glaring disadvantage is the mutually exclusive mechanisms for visible and IR. The IR laser cannot be zeroed during the daytime. The easiest method is to zero the visible laser during the day and then cowitness the two dots by using your NVD. Or, use an Aimpoint or EOTech to zero during the daytime and then cowitness the IR laser in the dark to the NV setting of the reflex sight. Another issue is the different adjustment mechanisms. Being able to adjust elevation and windage with the knurled knobs is great, but then having to carry and juggle a screwdriver to use the opposite slotted adjusters does not make sense. There are two IR settings on mine (HI and LOW). Both produce the same power output (<0.1mW). ).1mW is powerful enough with NVD's and in fact the military versions are often too bright and flare in the NVD. Like I said, well made, works, but has a couple of designer flaws.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Kevin1 from Everything you need & nothing you don't The combination of laser & Illuminator is about all you need for NVD shooting & hunting. The lack of visible laser doesn't hinder usefulness at all, & the benefits are that it can keep a lower profile than the likes of the DBAL-D2. Since the Illuminator is onboard, this could be run standalone on a night hunting rifle, provided that you didn't care to have a backup white light. Pros: Cost Simplicity Ruggedness Low profile & light weight Mount is QD Switch location Cons: Illuminator lacks very long throw The plug for remote switch isn't very secure with Surefire switches Mount does have some flex (point of impact changes) if you press too hard on the onboard button. Overall a great unit, good price for the features & reliability.

Rated 5 out of 5 by yosha from WOW! I recently got night vision and needed to get a IR laser for my AR when my buddy told me about the DBAL-I2. He showed me his, and i was instantly hooked. I first used it at my property at 100 yards and wow it was crisp. Only took a couple minutes to sight in, and the illuminator lite up the target perfectly as well. The IR laser could be seen for 400+ yards but didn't shoot that far yet with it. I Love it and would recommend it to everyone.

Item No # 9007 is a black unit has no visible laser, but just illuminator and IR pointer. Looks like Item # 9006 is the same unit, but in tan. Still no daylight laser and only has IR illuminator IR and pointer. Where can I find and buy Item No # 9006?
#9006 is identical to #9003 aside from the color. The #9007 is unique in that it is IR-only, replacing the visible laser with an IR-Illuminator. All of these Item #'s can be ordered by our dealers and distributors, many of while have online outlets -opticsplanet.com is one of the major online retailers.

hello , i have few questions to ask.Is the difference between DBAL-A3 AND DBAL-I2 thats the A3 its eye laser safe ? In simple words what dose IR illuminator mean in relation to the laser ? Dose it light up the laser pointer ?
The biggest difference between the A3 and I2 is the co-aligned IR and visible aiming lasers.

How well can the zero of the dbal i2 handle the recoil of a .308(7.62x51)round? It does phenomenol with 5.56 round.
We have tested our products on a variety of calibers from 5.56 to 50 Caliber We are confident that our products will operate reliably on all military, law enforcement and commercially available firearms.

What are the combo connection options and differences between the DBAL-I2 and DBAL-A3 if I wanted to add a mk4 weapon light?
With a y-cable, you could connect the I2 (on visible) and Mk4 and have them activate at the same time. The A3 is set up with a visible override so that the IR illuminator and aiming laser are active until the pressure padd is pressed, which cuts off the IR and activates the visible laser and Mk4

I have this unit. It arrived with a technical manual for the military version instead of the civilian version. How can I get the correct manual?
There is no different way in which the commercial and military versions work with the exception of the output power. The easiest way will be to download the manual using the following link: http://www.steiner-optics.com/product-manuals/laser-devices

Is this unit able to utilize AA batteries or is it only CR123? If it can take AA do you need a different battery cap and if so where do you get that?
The DBAL-I2 can only accept CR123A batteries.
Date published: 2015-09-01
If you zero it then the battery dies and you take it off your rifle (i have an A2 front post) to replace the battery will you lose your zero?"
The simple answer is yes, you will loose your zero. However, if you reinstall it in the same position, in the same manner, it should be fairly close to your original zero.

Can you tell me the part number for the picatinny rail mount for the dbal i2 and where to find them? All I can find is the red dot fast fire mount.
All DBAL lasers come with the QD picatinny mount attached.
