We've talked about it in here, and they talk about it more in the 'best of'… how Pete really does have a nose for the future. He consistently either has or recognizes a great idea. Only no one knows it but him. And, well, us, because of how we know how it turns out.
In the pilot, he suggests the 'death wish' idea that Don had vehemently dismissed, and everyone is horrified. But really, what do we think the symbolism behind Marlboro Country is?
He pitches the very excellent Bethlehem Steel tagline, the Backbone of America.
During a discussion about how to angle Israel tourism, Pete says, "Maybe we should try and exploit the danger, instead of fighting it. Travel as adventure." This idea, while not being actively shot down by Don, was skimmed over.
He was the only one who liked the Volkswagen ad, which pissed everyone off. He recognizes the hip factor of Kennedy, calling him Elvis. The way I saw that, he wasn't comparing the people, but the potential (and eventual) phenomenon of Kennedy to that of Elvis.
SEASON 2 SPOILER ALERT FROM THE PROMOS below the fold
There is a shot of Peggy saying to Don, "Sex sells", and Don saying, "Says who?" which is of course, unfathomable.
But it's been said before that Peggy and Pete are paralleled in that they are the voice of youth, of the future.
And Don, he just has no interest in that listening to that voice.
13 Responses to "Pete thinks different, Don thinks the same"
I think it's interesting that none of Don's ads we see on the show are really "sexy", maybe with the exception of his Gilette tag line (since Peggy came up with Mark your Man). Really his ideas are all about comforting people, aren't they? Taking them to safe places and telling them it will all be okay (It's Toasted, the Carousel, etc). I guess because that's what he himself wants? Another reflection of his disconnected life?
That is interesting. And though the Gillette line is sexy, it's also a reflection of how disconnected he is… men go their whole lives without that revelation (that what women want is any excuse to get closer) and yet there he is, pushing them away.
Don also thought up that banking ad, about men's "complicated" lives (even though it was Paul who pitched it. Not sexy, but not comforting.
Pete's problem with the death wish pitch had more to do with his poor people skills. He should have seen that he would lose them at the key point.
Smoking is Dangerous!
Is not! 🙂
A pitch can be brilliant, but worthless if the client doesn't have Jesus in his heart. Something like that.
Ha ha!
There is no question, part of Pete's problem is that he's forward-thinking in an old-fashioned minded agency, but even that gets lost because he's so bad with gauging his presentations. I'm picturing Don saying to Peggy (and I'm probably making this up, pulling it from projection rather than memory), Let's give your way a try. I am not able to picture Don saying that to Pete.
Yeah, he's just smug and self-satisfied and he doesn't understand people. Which is sad, because he IS smart and he DOES get the trends and the way to sell. He should NEVER pitch, though.
I love this blog and have been lurking for months!
I also noticed on rewatching that Helen Bishop owns a Volkswagen which the male neighbors mock at Sally's birthday party. And Helen volunteers for Kennedy. In addition to being divorced and working, her choices make her the embodiment of the future that the ad guys aside from Pete don't understand.
Absolutely. She also wears pants, her hair is less coifed, and in general, she seems more like Midge than like a suburban mom of 1960.
And she *walks.* Where does she go? And that John Kennedy….
And wouldn't the comfort thing be especially important to Don, because of his difficult family background and escape from that and all the insecurities he has around his secret identity, but also the general period he grew up in; Depression, WWII, then serving in Korea. He craves comfort, and for everything to be ok, and probably for things to stay within the limits he's familiar with. He might feel like he's had enough change.
Pete is coming from a completely different place. He's wealthy, and he's that bit younger. He hasn't had those experiences – nor have any of the other younger men at Sterling Cooper, and this is another thing that divides them from Don and Roger.
I'm sure it's right that Don is nicer to Peggy partly because he doesn't feel that she's a direct threat to him, but I think there are other issues there. Definitely he's using her to get back at Pete when he promotes her to copywriter, but I think there's something in her that he respects and identifies with, almost regardless of gender. They've both seen the other at vulnerable points, with some of the day to day office pretence stripped away, and both stay aloof from most of the male/female office activities that go on. So in some ways they are similar. And by the end of the season, they both have good reason to be wary of Pete.
The 1950s were a decade of comfort. People wanted something soothing after all the pain of WWII. Americans needed to know that everything was going to be okay. The 1960s were a decade of change. The younger generation was more open to new ideas, new music, new everything.
Don is nicer to Peggy because he doesn't see her as an equal. She's a woman, and poses no threat to him. He can't envision competing with Peggy for a job. However, he is will aware that Pete wants to advance, and as another man, could. Pete poses a direct threat to Don.
Pete is certainly forward thinking and can spot trends, but he doesn't really understand how to sell his ideas. His sense of entitlement interferes with his pitch. He thinks people should listen to him merely because HE said it — it's an idea that came from HIM — not because it has any relevance to them or their issues. Even if what he proposes is the correct approach, no one will ever listen to Pete because it's always about Pete.
Don understands something that no one else on the show seems to know, and that's how to make the issue relevant to other people. He knows what the "unique selling proposition" is — what emotional triggers to use to get people to respond in the way that he wants them. "It's not why should people smoke," as Don said, "it's why should they smoke Lucky Strike." Don knows how to make it personal.
It's not just that Pete is entitled… it's that he's visibly angry about not getting enough attention. There is an underlying You people aren't going to like my ideas anyway tone to most everything he suggests.
I've met a lot of people like that; their insecurity is continually self-fulfilling. They sit there with their arms crossed and a glare or a too-big smile, 'secretly' pre-hurt and angry that nobody ever likes or includes them, even though you haven't had the chance to get to know and not like them, or if you have, you don't like or want to include them because, well, they're visibly angry and needy.
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.

Whether you're thinking about an academic career or going into industry, there are some key employability skills that all employers will be looking for. So, what can you do to enhance the skills gained during your research to make you stand out?
There are lots of courses available at Bristol for postgraduate research students (PGRs) to enhance their skills, from planning your time to learning to collaborate. The Bristol Doctoral College has collated all of these in one handy Personal and Professional Development catalogue (PDF). There is also Lynda, an online learning platform providing tutorial videos that cover a wide range of skills.
Whether you're applying for a job in a large company, a new start-up or an academic department, research the organisation and build up your commercial awareness to find out what's important to them and what they want from employees. Find out about recent successes, who their competitors are, and about changes in the industry. Websites such as Glassdoor will help you find out what to expect at interview.
Embrace opportunities to get involved in activities outside of your research, this will develop your skills but also give you some important downtime. Use Vitae's Research Development Framework to identify the skills, knowledge and attributes, that you should be developing as a researcher. You may devote some of this downtime time to career planning; Vitae's extensive careers pages have case studies, planning tools and advice for researchers to help with this.
An internship/placement or volunteering is a fantastic way to enhance your experience, to sample different working environments, broaden you skills and build your network. You can do an internship part-time alongside your research, or in some situations you can pause your research. Find out more by reading our work experience and internships page. Vitae have useful information on work experience during your research.
Finding a way to standout that incorporates your research is a great way to be remembered in job interviews. Do you write a blog which receives a lot of traffic? Do you enjoy public engagement and translating your research to a lay audience? Do you excel in collaboration? Or perhaps you feel confident working in interdisciplinary teams. Finding your unique selling point will help you tell a story about what type of researcher you are and why you stand out.
You may be familiar with what a PhD involves but some employers won't be. Get experience using a vocabulary that explains what research is and what you do as a PGR. For example 'running experiments' can mean project management, problem solving, or meeting deadlines.
Conferences, research collaborations, departmental committees, writing retreats, funding sandpits and field trips all require academics to meet new people and make connections - this is a big part of a successful academic career. Vitae have advice on how to build your professional network. Networking doesn't have to be face-to-face; sites such as LinkedIn, Adacdemia.edu, and Piirus are good places to connect with like-minded academics and share publications and ideas for new research grants. If you are networking face-to-face, get some business cards printed, including a link to your updated blog or academic profile.
For information about options after your studies, take a look at our guides to careers in academia and alternative careers with a PhD. The University of Manchester also hosts a guide to An Academic Career, which is rich with information to consider before deciding on whether to pursue a career in academic research.

Explosion of roots reggae lands in South Florida!!
– review of the show at La Covacha (Miami).
Landing in a hotbed of Latin flair, Miami seemed destined to land the Miami Reggae Festival, which acts as a bridge between Latin culture and reggae music. However, the festival's main cause is to awareness in an effort to bring an end to extreme poverty. It fuses music, food, arts and culture from around the world.
First up for myself was The Medicine Box. The band is well known for their powerful lyrics of healing, love and consciousness. Cultural backgrounds include a percussion and drum section of Cuban heritage comprising Oba Frank Lords and Eddy De La Cruz, Brazilian bassist Brik Vieira, Colombian guitarist/vocalist Chris Orange along with Venezuelan
Next, was one of my new favorite artists, Ojo de Buey who formed in 2007 as a project of friends. From the beginning, playing live was the reason for the band. The name comes from the seed known in Costa Rica as 'Ojo de Buey' familiar in our childhood, which has a very unique shape and is a symbol of good luck. Using the root reggae, fusion is an important component of the essence of the group. Afro-Caribbean, Latin elements, tinged rock'n'roll and a positive message in his lyrics, give a fresh air to his compositions …
Lastly we saw Jahfe, who derives of Haitian and Jamaican. Playing to a very Hispanic crowd, they were the only English-speaking band of the entire night. An international powerhouse pop-roots-rock-reggae band whose rising popularity and following is due to their take charge attitude and uncompromising conscious message. Representing the power of the youth and the wisdom of roots culture, the music of Jahfe not only reflects diversity but the true ability of conscious music to connect to people of all backgrounds. Now in their musical prime, Jahfe specializes in a hard-driving, dubbed-up hybrid of Rock and Reggae.

Ukrainian writer who began a diary at the age 12 of her first romantic blossoming, at which time she fell in love with a Duke. She was reported as being driven by vanity and the ambition to become known.
She died of consumption on 10/31/1884, Paris.
Source Notes
Modern Astrology, 10/1897, quotes given time of, "at or about 6:30 AM." November 11 OS 1860.
Wikipedia has a different year and date:
"Until recently the accepted date of Bashkirtseff's birth was November 11 [Nov. 23, New Style], 1860. However, after the discovery of the original manuscript of Bashkirtseff's diary in the Bibliothèque nationale de France, it was found that her diary had been abridged and censored by her family. Her date of birth (1858 not 1860) was also falsified by her mother. The unabridged edition of the diary, based on the original manuscript, was published in France in 16 volumes, and excerpts (years 1873-1876) translated into English.
I was born the 11th [elsewhere given as the 12th of November, 1859. Actually born November 12, 1858, by the Russian calendar; November 24, 1858, by the Gregorian calendar, which is twelve days ahead of the Russian. The family celebrated her birthday each year on the day they claimed she would have been born if she had been a full-term baby— January 12 by the Russian calendar, January 24 by the western calendar. She learns later—in Book 83, December 29, 1878—from her father (but does not apparently accept his statement, as she ignores it here in her preface) that she was a full-term baby, suggesting that she was conceived before her parents had married and that all the mystification about her date of birth was intended to cover up that embarrassment.] It's horrifying just to write it, but I console myself by thinking that I certainly will not have any age when you read me.

Alternative exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are minimally correlated to the broader market. The concept is that these ETFs have the potential to appreciate regardless of which way the market moves. While 2014 was kind to alternative ETFs, 2015 was not. Only three alternative ETFs delivered a positive total return for the year. What about 2016?
Market Neutral Momentum
QuantShares U.S. Market Neutral Momentum (MOM) was the best-performing alternative ETF in 2015, delivering a return of 23.5%. This ETF tracks the Down Jones U.S. Thematic Market Neutral Momentum Index, which is a long-short index that tracks momentum and is dollar neutral. (For more, see: Investing in Alternative Mutual Funds and ETFs.)
Before your interest piques and you think this could be a way to play the market regardless of which way it moves, there are few facts you should know. One, MOM depreciated 8.4% in 2014, indicating that there are no guarantees. Two, the expense ratio is 1.49%, which is considerably higher than the average ETF. Three, the average daily trading volume is miniscule at 7,154, making this an illiquid ETF. This means it will be difficult to get in and out when you want. These three factors are reason enough to avoid MOM in 2016, as well as beyond unless volume increases.
Private Equity
ProShares Global Listed Private Equity (PEX) delivered a total return of 3.5% for investors in 2015. This was the second best performance for all alternative ETFs, which isn't inspiring. If you can't find a way to return 3.5% per year regardless of what the market is doing, then you might want to turn your investment portfolio to a financial advisor. If your financial advisor can't return 3.5% in a year regardless of what the market is doing, then it's time to start looking for a new one. (For more, see: Top 3 Private Equity ETFs.)
As far as PEX is concerned, it tracks the LPX Direct Listed Private Equity Index, which tracks up to 30 qualified private equity companies. PEX depreciated in 2015, but the massive yield made up for that weakness. PEX currently offers a dividend yield of 12.54%. The expense ratio of 0.60% is also fair. On the other hand, the private equity market is overinflated, and the average daily trading volume for PEX is just 3,376. This is not an ETF you want to dance with in 2016.
Real Estate
The only other alternative ETF to deliver a positive total return in 2015 was PowerShares Active U.S. Real Estate ETF (PSR), which delivered a total return of 1.0%. This ETF tracks the performance of REITs and ROCS, the latter referring to Real Estate Operating Companies. (For more, see: What Are the Potential Pitfalls of Owning REITs?)
PSR comes with a dividend yield of 2.04%. The expense ratio is relatively high at 0.80% and the average daily trading volume is incredibly low at 1,981. The biggest problem, however, is that real estate is a deception at this time. Many investors will move from equities to real estate, not realizing that many of the bigger cities in the United States are in insane bubble territory due to speculators driving up prices. Once those speculators leave the market, the demand will plunge, leaving an oversupply and depressed prices. While equities isn't where you want to be in 2016, it's a safer alternative because they're liquid, allowing you to move your money in and out when you deem appropriate.
The Bottom Line
Alternative ETFs might present a logical structure, but they lack liquidity, which will be imperative in 2016. The only thing worse than losing money on an investment is losing money on an investment and not being able to get your money out. As far as alternative ETFs not mentioned here, not one of them presents an intriguing investment opportunity at this time. (For more, see: Top Alternative Investments to the Stock Market.)
Dan Moskowitz does not have any positions in MOM, PEX or PSR.

Hengistbury Head Engagement Portraits: Katy & Tim
Hengistbury Head is a pretty spit of sand, dunes and beach huts down in Dorset near Christchurch. I met Katy and Tim in Mudeford Quay where we got the little ferry over to the rather remote headland one breezy, drizzly evening. Its a really beautiful spot and the chilly weather meant we had the sand to ourselves for their engagement photos. They get married tomorrow, looking forward to a great day and praying for some sunshine…
West Wittering Beach Engagement photos: Lucy & Matt
There was actually one day this month when it wasn't raining. This was the evening we went to beautiful West Wittering beach in West Sussex for Lucy & Matt's pre-wedding portraits. I like a good location for photographing and the deserted sandy beach, colourful beach huts, dunes, blue sea and warm evening sunlight were perfect. Looking forward to Lucy and Matt's Hillier Gardens wedding next week (more sun please!)
West Sussex Wedding Photographer Amy Wass
Natasha & Peter's Wedding Photos on Hayling Beach
Natasha and Peter did things a bit differently for their wedding photos. Putting aside the tradition of the bride not seeing the groom before the wedding, we met up in the morning for their wedding portraits. As a photographer this was a bit of a treat as I rarely get to spend so much time on the bride and groom photos. It also meant we were able to hit the beach and the colourful beach huts, before they went off to get married elsewhere. We went back to Hayling Island, where we had shot some pre-wedding portraits on a reconnaissance mission a few weeks ago. The sun was out and we had bright blue skies, it was a gorgeous day on the beach. Natasha and Peter are a really fun couple and you could feel the excitement they shared for their wedding in a few hours, and hopefully that shows in these photos.
Here's a selection from their wedding day. Natasha & Peter, I hope you had an amazing wedding celebration and many congratulations!
Natasha & Peter Hayling Island Engagement Photos
Natasha & Peter are getting married in a few weeks on Hayling Island. We met there today for a pre-wedding portrait session on the beach, for a bit of a trial run before the big day. The beach huts provided a colourful backdrop for some fun photos, and the love shack- what a find! We brought some props along for a bit of a beach theme, and I think these made for some quirky photos. Thanks to Natasha and Peter for being great sports and being relaxed and cheerful in front of the camera. I'm really looking forward to our next session on their wedding day where we can build on some of the things we've tried to today.

Get Answers to Your Questions About Our Florida to Cuba Ferry Service
While we're not able to answer all questions related to our ferry service or Cuban travel in general, we are able to provide you with answers to some commonly asked questions.
To email us a question, please reach us through our Contact Page.
Is the CubaKat Ferry in Service?
As of September 15, 2015 the CubaKat ferry is not operational. Although licenses have been approved by the U.S. government for ferry service operators, the Cuban government has not yet issued licenses.
Because of this, CubaKat, along with all the other ferry operators are not operational. We are all waiting on further approval from the Cuban government.
Can I Really Travel to Cuba Legally?
Yes. Special permission can be granted from the U.S. government so you can legally travel to Cuba under 'general license' for reasons related to trips involving family visits, professional, religious or cultural programs and humanitarian projects. However, trips considered as 'tourist travel' are prohibited under U.S. law.
When do You Expect to Begin Providing Ferry Service to Cuba?
We are working toward Spring / Summer of 2016 as an official launch date for our ferry service to Cuba. That time frame, however, is fully dependent on a variety of factors, only one of which is governmental approval.
Why are We Called CubaKat?
CubaKat is a combination of the words 'Cuba' and 'catamarans' which are sometimes called 'cats' or 'kats.' Essentially it was just a fun way to combine Cuba with Catamaran, but with a twist! Catamaran vessels have long been used for both public and private ferry services. The boats we would use to operate the CubaKat ferry services would be catamarans.
Why a Passengers Ferry Services to Cuba?
Why a Passenger Ferry Service to Cuba?
The people involved with CubaKat have a long and successful history within the maritime industry. They are also avid travelers, adventurers and entrepreneurs who see opportunity in providing a reliable, safe and low cost alternative to other travel options, specifically, private chartered air flights or general airline flights that will also soon be available.
An Alternative to Airfare?
While airlines will be able to make the trip to Cuba faster, they are also more expensive and more restrictive with the amount of luggage that can be taken aboard. Ferry service will offer cheaper fares – PLUS – offer the option of extra luggage and cargo space. The ability to transport Cargo to Cuba is a huge benefit for people wanting to take large, heavy goods to friends and family on the island.
Why Can't You Provide Ferry Service Right Now?
While there are a number of options available right now for operating a ferry service to and from Cuba, none of them offer the convenience and direct access that our proposed ferry services will be able to offer.
When Are We Expected to Begin Service?
We are hopeful for a start date between Spring / Summer 2016 start date, but working with many parties to determine if that time frame will work for everyone involved.
Where Would Ports in Florida be Located?
There are many options for ports along Florida's coastline. We're currently evaluating options including the Florida Keys, Miami and Tampa.
While CubaKat is Waiting for Government Approval, What Else is it Doing?
As we work toward gaining a license to operate our ferry, we are also working to promote the idea of our ferry service to the public. Everyone we speak with has shown an interest in traveling to Cuba. At the moment, we're learning what potential travelers want in a ferry service and how best to create service that responds to those needs and requirements.
If Interested in Traveling by Ferry to Cuba, How Can I Stay Connected with CubaKat?
We'd really like to stay in touch too! For updates, news and information about CubaKat and ferry travel to Cuba, please join our email newsletter.

Warning: This article contains spoilers for Season 6 of Game of Thrones. If you're not up to date then turn back now, for this post is dark and full of spoilers.
Forget Batman v Superman or Captain America: Civil War — the battle of the year is about to commence over on HBO's Game of Thrones in the penultimate episode of the season. Jon Snow is set to take on Ramsay Bolton in a battle of the bastards, arguably the most highly anticipated moment of the current season!
Take a look below:
Intense, right? Well, nothing less should be expected from this heated rivalry that has been brewing for several seasons. Let's take a look back at four important storylines that led to this epic showdown.
Ramsay Torturing Theon Greyjoy
In arguably the most obscene storyline that the hit series has covered thus far, Ramsay tortured former Stark ally Theon Greyjoy. Let's be honest, Theon isn't a particularly nice person and he did turn his back on the Starks in previous seasons. However, the hellacious torture methods that Ramsay inflicted upon him were completely unwarranted and ultimately introduced the world of Game of Thrones to the greatest psychopath since Joffrey Baratheon.
Ramsay not only physically mutilated Theon, but he emotionally broke him — a storyline that continued for many seasons. Even now, Theon remains a different person. This plot set the wheels in motion for all that was to come.
Ramsay Abusing Sansa Stark
Ramsay played Sansa like a fiddle, appearing to be a gentleman up until their wedding. However, it was on their wedding night when he showed his true colors — violating her while forcing Theon to watch.
It was horrifying for us, having to witness a character that we'd grown to love endure this abuse. Afterward, Ramsay kept Sansa locked in the tower. He mentally abused her and only kept her alive so that she could deliver him an heir. Sansa's abuse and imprisonment at the hands of Ramsay was the wakeup call Theon needed; he also realized that this could be his chance for redemption after his actions at Winterfell several seasons earlier.
With the impending battle, Ramsay's defeat at the hands of Jon Snow would be the perfect culmination for this storyline and, more importantly, it would be the perfect revenge for Sansa.
Ramsay Has Rickon Stark
In what was a rather shocking moment, Rickon was forcibly delivered to Ramsay. With the youngest Stark now being held captive, he is at the mercy of the most psychopathic man in all of Westeros.
In fighting Ramsay, Jon and Sansa are hoping to rescue their youngest brother before Ramsay skins him alive.
Reclaiming Winterfell
Any fan of the show knows that Winterfell belongs to the Starks. Unfortunately, it has not been Stark property for several seasons now and is currently ruled by dangerous Ramsay Bolton.
As Sansa said several episodes ago, Winterfell is her and Jon's ancestral home and among all of the other reasons above, they are fighting to reclaim ownership of their homeland. Winterfell belongs to the Starks and Jon intends to take it back.
It's going to be a battle of epic proportions — the fight for Winterfell is on and one bastard will fall. But who is it going to be?

ACC coaches to Josh Pastner: Buckle up
Queried Wednesday at the ACC's Operation Basketball media day event, the league's coaches didn't sugarcoat the job that awaits Georgia Tech coach Josh Pastner, somewhat unusual when "I really like their roster" and similar platitudes typically flow freely.
But, with a team whose leading returning scorer (Quinton Stephens) averaged five points and that lost more than 75 percent of its scoring from last season, Pastner's colleagues recognize what awaits.
"It's a little more challenging because of where he's starting from, getting the job that late (in the hiring cycle) and having six seniors," Florida State coach Leonard Hamilton said. "It'd be nice if he had sophomores and juniors that were mature and were growing. He's losing six (after this season) and he's going to come in next year and be extremely young. It's tough."

Well it shouldn't take more than 7 business days at most right? I've had this done before, sent from the same nords up north. Took only 3 business days. Now it's been 11 business days since then. I'm wondering if it got lost? Somebody took it from my doorstep? What can I do? Is this just going to be a lost cause for me? It didn't come with a tracking # since I did ordered directly from the store. I know when I order online I am provided with one, but not in this case. Uggs are actually hard to come by. That's why I bought them early this year. Last year I missed out by late oct. Any suggestions or experiences would really help. thanks.

Capcom has released details and a new trailer for the first Resident Evil 7 DLC, Banned Footage Vol. 1. It's available today for PS4 players, and later next month for other platforms.
Banned Footage Vol. 1 is available today for PS4 for €9.99 / $9.99. This Vol. 1 pack includes "Nightmare," where Sewer Gators cameraman Clancy must craft weapons and ammo to face off against hordes of enemies to survive until morning. Also included is "Bedroom" where Clancy must figure out how to get out of a locked bedroom in the Baker family's plantation and make his escape but beware – Marguerite Baker won't be happy if she knows he's up and out of bed! Along with both of these scenarios is an infinitely replayable extra game mode called "Ethan Must Die", which is an extra tough mode that is separate from the events of RE7. (Please note that PSVR is not supported in "Ethan Must Die.")
Following this, Banned Footage Vol. 2 will be available for PS4 on February 14th at a price of €14.99 / $14.99. In this Vol. 2 pack, the "banned footage" scenarios include "21" and "Daughters." Players will need to gamble with their own life in a deadly game of "21" with Lucas Baker and then dive deeper into the Baker family's life before the tragic events of Resident Evil 7 biohazard in "Daughters."
An extra gameplay mode titled "Jack's 55thBirthday" provides a race against the clock as players serve up the Daddy of the family, Jack Baker, with tons of treats for his special celebration. (Please note that PSVR is not supported in "Jack's 55th Birthday.")
Banned Footage Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 will be available to purchase for all other platforms on February 21st. Deluxe Edition and Season Pass owners will get the Banned Footage contents as they release per above and an additional story episode with more details to come. In addition, in spring 2017, all players will have access to the free "Not a Hero" content, introducing players to a new separate storyline away from Ethan's saga in the main game.
We gave Resident Evil 7 high praise in our review, which is available now on Xbox One and PS4.

Elsie got ready in probably our favorite hotel room we have ever been in, the gallery suite in the Conrad. It had Stunning views of the city and amazing light everywhere!! We than traveled to the Canal for some photos and on to the Children's museum for a ceremony and reception to remember. How many people get to say they rode a merry-go-round on their wedding day?? Elsie and Adam can!! Once the sun went down and the mood was set, The Louisville Crashers brought the party to life. They are our new favorite band. They not only got every single person in the crowd involved and on the dance floor, but they brought Elsie and Adam on stage for a cowbell contest. I think Elsie may have won ;)
Elsie and Adam were made for each other, and a perfect compliment to each other. We wish you both the happiest of marriages, Congratulations!

TAGBILARAN CITY, May 12, (PIA)–There might be a little hope for Balicasag, Panglao and maybe Cabilao to set up their municipal ports to be supervised by the Philippine Ports Authority (PPA), but they have to redo the proposals to get the plan back on track.
PPA Engineering services Division chief Engr. Richard Elopre told members of the Association of United Development Information Officers in Bohol (AUDIO) meeting at the PPA Multi-Purpose Hall that there used to be a proposal for the PPA to help build Balicasag and Cabilao Ports.
Although technically beyond the jurisdiction of the PPA, as the proposed ports would be serving small motorized boats and are regulated by the Maritime Industry Authority of the Philippines (MARINA) and fishing boats by the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR), the PPA would have all operated ports under their supervision, PPA chief safety officer and public information officer Archt Epelito Arao-arao bared.
Earlier, information officers who listened to the PPA mandates asked how the PPA determines the establishment of ports.
Concerned about the haphazard manner by which boat operators dock in Panglao's tourism island Balicasag, Panglao Information Officer and Executive Assistant Danny Reyes asked if the PPA can help put up a port of sorts to streamline Balicasag dive, snorkel and island hopping operations and spare the tourists from the hassle.
Reyes said around 80 to 100 motorized bancas come to Balicasag every day and dock just everywhere.
On this, Archt Arao-arao explained that since the 1970's creation of the PPA, it has predetermined ports based on revenues, income, size and strategic locations as part of PPA ports system, then which were strategically spaced less than 50 kilometers.
Balicasag happens to be less than 50 kilometers from Tagbilaran.
All [established] ports in the country shall be under the supervision of the PPA, Araoarao, who has almost 20 years of PPA work in his belt, cited the mandate of the office and added that in Bohol, the PPA also exercises supervision over municipal ports like Bien Unido, Loay and Alburquerque.
He said, "we evaluate, as we are mandated by law, to assess the capacity of the operator, private entities, individual private ports."
For those starting to operate one, he advised, they should have approval and permission from PPA as the agency will have it under its supervision.
In Bohol, PPA operates the ports of Tagbilaran, Loon, Tubigon, Getafe, Talibon, Ubay, Tapal and Jagna.
But, for Panglao, Archt Arao-arao, who presented his presentation by soliciting ideas, insights or suggestions on how to further develop the PPA services, also leaked that the PPA in Tagbilaran may help endorse the project proposed to the Central Office.
Engr Elopre said a common port for Balicasag and Cabilao has been tackled way back but the move died, himself not privy to what had happened.
The PPA engineering chief even added that an ocular inspection has been completed then and resurrecting the plan would also restart the paper process.
For now, the establishment of a PPA supervised port in Balicasag could be a move supportive of the town's efforts to regulate and streamline motorized banca operations as well as stop the degradation of Balicasag coral cover, the indiscriminate dropping of anchors ruining patches of marine coral gardens.

Play Basics
By Kitty and Steve Cooper
Counting Out the Hand
Another important technique for declarer play is called counting out the hand; this is when you count how many cards your opponents have in each suit. Knowing that one opponent has two cards in a suit and the other has five means that it is five to two that a specific missing card is with the length. The classic example is KJ10 opposite Axx in a side suit, where you can finesse either way for the queen. When you have no other information you play the opponent with the most length for that card. Other important uses for the count are to overrule "nine never" or to drop a doubleton honor in your opponent's hand.
How do you count the hand? First of all, if there has been any bidding - say that an opponent opens 1S playing five card majors - you know that he has five or more cards in that suit. Next, when an opponent shows out of a suit you know how many cards both he and his partner started with in that suit. After drawing trumps (and noting how many each opponent has), you cash side winners and ruff some losers, thus building a picture of the opponents' distribution. If the opponents do not realize what you are up to, they are likely to give each other accurate count signals because on most hands they have to worry about keeping the right cards in the ending. In other words, frequently the defense cannot afford to lie to each other, so you can use their signals to help you count out the hand.
John Kranyak of Las Vegas, Nevada, playing on the Fireman team, USA2, used counting in the semi-finals of the recent world championships in India. On the first board of the final set he was declaring a spade game. He needed to lose only one trick in a side suit with this combination: D K1086 opposite D Q53. The normal play, taken at the other table, is to play to the ten, hoping the jack is onside. Kranyak opted to count out the hand first, so he played off all his side winners. He was confident that the player in front of the king who had overcalled vulnerable at the two level held the ace. He also knew that the overcaller had six clubs, one spade, and at least three hearts. His judgement from the opponents' carding was that hearts were four-four, which left only two diamonds in the overcaller's hand. He backed that judgement by playing to the king and then ducking to the doubleton ace on the way back. He won ten imps for his fine play. Sadly, it was not enough for his team to win the match and advance to the finals.
You can view all the hands from that set at bridgebase.com/tools/handviewer.html?linurl=http://www.bridgebase.com/tools/vugraph_linfetch.php?id=41269
This month's Improve Your Play has a good example of counting the hand after a preempt.

How (and why) anyone could have made fun of Joe Manganiello when he was growing up is beyond me. But if those bullies didn't feel bad at the time, they certainly must regret it now, because the True Blood actor is the most delicious piece of man walking the planet. Here is he talking about the experience and how it, yes, gets better.
(via After Elton)
1 Comment on "OMG, he was bullied?! Joe Manganiello"
OMG, he is the PERFECT man. Just perfect. Needs to grow a little bit of chest hair cause werewolves are hairy beasts and I am a fan of manicured chest hair. Just sayin'. But I just can't say enough about how perfect he is. Damn, he's fine.

text: 1927-28 Chevy Truck Radiator Price $929.00 Prev Next Product Description 1927-1928 Chevy truck radiators had a painted steel shell with the bottom support bar tacked to the lower part of the shell. If you have an aluminum shell, it is likely a car shell. We have also been told that the 1927 Canadian Truck nickle plated a steel shell but have been unable to confirm this statement. Features of the 1927 Chevy Truck Radiator for Street Rods include: Modern efficient copper core design with 10 fins per inch Core is a 1-13/16" with 10 fins per inch 3/4" seamless weld tubes in a staggered array to disrupt airflow laterally Hand formed top and bottom tanks Hand formed bottom bar riveted to sidewalls and soldered to the bottom tank Galvanized steel sidewalls to resist rust Internal baffle in top tank to prevent cooling loss Radiators are built from original patterns Painted flat black to aid in heat exchange N.B. We have restored 1927 Cars and 1927-28 Chevy Trucks and seen bottom bars soldered to the tanks and riveted as we construct them. We have also seen the bottom bar riveted to the shell. Please comunicate of you require this aklternative construction when ordering. About the ordering process: Please note that the pictures shown illustrate past radiators. The order form below will assist in building your custom radiator. We do not stock radiators. Each radiator is made to order and requires time to construct. Please plan accordingly. Please note any special requirements in the comments section e.g. angled inlets, chopped radiators, maximum depths with core, fan or fan shrouds, patina-not-painted finish, polished brass or german silver etc. Submitting an order for a custom radiator through our website will generate a deposit payment. We will price out your custom modifications and you may be asked further questions while a drawing is prepared for your approval. We will do our best to estimate the time of construction. It is a best estimate based on what is presently in our queue. If you would like to speak with us before ordering you may create an account and save the item shopping cart. We can discuss it before you submit your order and deposit. Keeping the Honeycomb core: Aging engines tend to run hotter. One contributing factor is decreased flow through a clogged and dirty honeycomb core. Honeycomb cores are comprised of narrow passages that can clog with rust, sediment or get coated over time with hard scale or oil from the engine. This type of replacement falls into the restoration side of our business. If you wish to replace your early Chevy Harrison honeycomb core radiator with a new honeycomb core, then please select the link to the left and contact us for a quote. What is a Honeycomb Fascia? The Harrison Radiator Company of Lockport, NY supplied Chevrolet with honeycomb film cores until 1933. This core pattern is still available albeit more expensive than more conventional tube and fin core patterns. An aluminum fascia is available that when placed in front of the modern tube and fin core has ¼" depth and a ¼" hexagon pattern to hide the modern core. Moving the core back in the radiator's header and sidewalls encroaches 1/16" of an inch toward the engine leaving adequate room for the fan clearance. When approached from the sides and front the tighter fin density and black on black paint create the illusion of a more costly honeycomb. Great for restorers on a budget and nostalgic street rodders.

I always keep an ear out for new music. I love discovering new bands/songs, it's a habit from my days as a music journalist. Even though this is mostly a sports blog, I still add quite a bit of music and pop culture content.
I decided to super-size this month's playlist with 15 songs. I received a ton of emails from readers who recommended new tracks to me, which I love. I will keep posting these as long as I keep receiving all the feedback.
I have been called a hipster on more than one occasion. I like indie music more than any other genre of music. Don't get me wrong, I can rock out to Richard Marx or Ace of Base (depending on the amount of alcohol in my system).
Here are 15 new indie songs I'm currently listening to. All of the songs are fresh and most have only been released within the last two months.
Your ears will thank you for listening!If you want to listen to songs that appeared on past playlists, you can listen to our playlist on Spotify or go here to view our past hipster playlists.

Hello! They let us off the boat! We have the first of several episodes run by the "Vice Squad", which includes myself, Brian, and new guests Erik and John. It was our divine task to get a lot of people to drink a Miami Vice. It's serious business.
This is also the first episode where we are reviewing beverages we picked up in Aruba! This was a smart call! I don't have a link or a pic like I usually do. Google does not think the soda exists. Consider this an omen.
Oh, and this episode has special guest, Comedian and all around nice guy, Paul F. Tompkins! Technically!
It's also the first episode where our theme song, Exquisite Dead Guy by They Might Be Giants, is official. We have permission (I asked)!

Engel plans to display its new all-electric e-mac injection molding machine during Chinaplas 2013 (May 20-23; Guangzhou, China).
"The demand for compact, all-electric injection molding machines for components which need to have very precise dimensions is increasing," said Gero Willmeroth, head of sales and service at Engel Machinery in Shanghai. "The Engel e-mac helps us to meet these requirements in the best possible way."
During the four days of the fair, an Engel e-mac 50/50 will produce holders for semiconductor chips made of polyetherimide, an application that poses an extremely tough challenge in terms of the injection molding machine's precision, according to Engel. The holders measure 26 by 23 mm, with a wall thickness of just 0.65 mm and the mesh structure with an inner edge length of 0.42 mm. Despite these exacting requirements and the hard-to-handle raw material, the Engel e-mac achieves a cycle time of just 19 seconds in this application, the company said....

I've posted a question about Night Lighting, as well as my response.
I recently got both of your books, and I thank you for the wonderful information. I'm 27 years old and haven't had a menstrual cycle in 3 ½ years. My cycle stopped as soon as I discontinued birth control pills after taking them for 8 years. I have been charting my temperatures and cervical fluid for about a year now. I do not ovulate or have a change in cervical fluid. I have followed and combination on Weston Price and Body Ecology Diet for 4 years. I am working with a natural medicine doctor to strengthen my thyroid and adrenals. A vaginal ultrasound done about 1 year ago showed nothing abnormal.
My husband and I have begun Lunaception. We have been in complete darkness for 4 nights now. My question is should we sleep with a light on for 3 nights this coming full moon, or should we continue in darkness until I notice a change in my cervical fluid. Your opinion is greatly appreciated, and any other suggestions you might have.
Why don't you sleep in total darkness until the day before the full moon, and then return to total darkness on February 10th or the 11th, right after the full moon?
These days, I'm also encouraging people to consider eliminating WiFi and drastically reducing cell phone use to see if reducing microwave radiation exposure improves your health.
I would also recommend Tai Chi or yoga or some other kind of gentle movement that supports your circulation.
Do keep with your WAP/Body Ecology diet.
Best of luck,
Katie Singer

Vitamin A in Bodybuilding
About Vitamin A:
Vitamin A is a fat soluble vitamin in the body, which means fats are needed for the proper synthesize, transportation and its function to take place. It is a well known fact that Vitamin A is needed for the functioning of Retina. Also, it is needed for maintaining a healthy skin, cell multiplication, development of reproductive system, maintenance of epithelial linings of visceral organs like kidney, liver, intestinal tract etc.
Importance of Vitamin A for Bodybuilders:
In bodybuilding, uses of vitamin A is seriously overlooked or often ignored. Vitamin A is needed by the body to synthesize and utilise protein units effectively. Studies have proved that administration of vitamin A along with iron can increase the production of Testosterone and related growth factors. Also, Cholesterol in the body is used up with the help of vitamin A to get converted into testosterone under necessary conditions. RNA synthesis and cellular division rely greatly on the availability of this vitamin.
Vitamin A helps in the conversion and storage of glycogen which is utilised at the time of intense workouts. Vigorous exercise sessions can deplete vitamin A storage from the body, which in turn can effect adversely on the protein metabolism. To avoid this, consumption of vitamin A along with a fat source (butter, cream, whole milk etc) is advisable for bodybuilders as great amounts of protein are consumed.
Bodybuilding Benefits of Vitamin A:
Enhances natural Testosterone production
Effective protein metabolism
Decreases oestrogen production
Aids in cell repair and growth
Natural Sources of Vitamin A:
Liver (lamb, chicken, beef etc)
Cod liver oil
Sweet potatoes (cooked)
Dosage of Vitamin A for Bodybuilders:
Need of vitamins and other nutrients for a bodybuilder is far greater than a normal person because of intense workouts and most importantly, due to the amount of protein consumed. A high protein meal should meet with adequate amounts of vitamin A for functional metabolism of protein.
10,000 IU of Vitamin A could be advisable and may go up to 25,000 IU per day.
A normal person do not need more than 5000 IU which can be easily acquired through proper diet without any supplementation.
Vitamin A overdose:
Even though vitamin A overdose/toxicity is rare, overconsumption is a bad idea. Also, if the needed amounts of fats are not present accordingly it would be expelled through faeces.
Following are the symptoms of extreme vitamin A overdose
Blurred vision
The symptoms may vanish on discontinuation of its consumption. Always consult with your physician before starting any supplementation.

Sri Lanka openers belt record stand
Sri Lanka's Upul Tharanga and Tillakaratne Dilshan recorded the fourth-highest stand for any wicket in a one-day international on Thursday, scoring 282 before they were parted.
Tharanga was eventually out for 133, caught by Elton Chigumbura off Chris Mpofu in the 45th over and Dilshan, on 144, followed shortly afterwards, caught by Chigumbura off Prosper Utseya.
The duo sailed past the previous World Cup best for the first wicket of 194 made by Pakistan's Saeed Anwar and Wajahatullah Wasti against New Zealand in Manchester in 1999.
Sri Lanka was put into bat by Zimbabwe in a game where victory for the co-host will guarantee a quarter-final place.

At the end of our volunteering stint. So so sad to go,my husband and I have been very fortunate to meet some fantastic volunteers from around the globe, mahouts and staff at MEF.
Our daily chores included, counting elephant poo and hurling it onto a pile, great workout, who needs dumbells when you can have "dungbells".
Followed by bathing and exfoliating the elephant, awesome experience and very refreshing with the hot environment.
Gardening with your fellow volunteers proved to be a nice outdoor bonding time and quite therapeutic for the sole.
Grass cutting proved to be the most eventful. We later hid the grass in a large paddock and watched our elephants at the end of the day mingle together and chew on their found grass cutting. Really lovely to see the mahouts, elephants and volunteers come together after a hard day, very rewarding.
Some days included English teaching which again was very rewarding, I think for both us and the children, even if they did spend most of the time laughing at us.
Anyway as mentioned this is our last day, we will miss every aspect of our role as a volunteer here and can't wait to adopt our first elephant.

Crowds were thin at U.S. stores and shopping malls in the early hours of Black Friday and on Thanksgiving evening as shoppers responded to early holiday discounts with caution and bad weather hurt turnout.
Major retail stocks including Target and Wal-Mart fell in early trading.
Bargain hunters found relatively little competition compared with previous years. Some on Friday morning said they had already shopped online or visited the mall the night before. That reflects the new normal of U.S. holiday shopping, where stores open up with deals on Thanksgiving Thursday itself, rather than waiting until Black Friday.
In an effort to attract the most eager holiday shoppers and fend off competition from Amazon.com Inc (AMZN.O), U.S. retailers have increasingly extended their holiday deals by opening stores on the evening of Thanksgiving.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for New Jersey Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Association Inc. (NJCFSA), Florham Park, NJ, USA
My daughter has had CFS for about 20 yrs. It has seriously affected ger life adversely and has severly limited her ability to do normal activities. NJCFSA is a great organization that works very hard to help people with CFS and to raise money to find a cure for CFS, despite many of the people running it having this terrible illness that makes it very hard to do extra work. They also help organizing support groups for people with this illness. This is an excellent group to support!

text: HIV drug resistance detected during low-level viraemia is associated with subsequent virologic failureSwenson, Luke C.a; Min, Jeong Euna; Woods, Conan K.a; Cai, Erica; Li, Jonathan Z.b; Montaner, Julio S.G.a; Harrigan, P. Richarda; Gonzalez-Serna, AlejandroaAIDS: May 15th, 2014 - Volume 28 - Issue 8 - p 1125–1134 doi: 10.1097/QAD.0000000000000203 Clinical Science Abstract In Brief Author Information Background: The clinical implications of emergent HIV drug resistance on samples with low-level viraemia (LLV <1000 copies/ml) remain unclear. We undertook the present analysis to evaluate the impact of emergent HIV drug resistance at LLV on the risk of subsequent virologic failure. Methods: One thousand, nine hundred and sixty-five patients had genotype results at LLV. Risk of virologic failure (≥1000 copies/ml) after LLV was evaluated by Kaplan–Meier analysis and Cox proportional hazards regression. Resistance was assessed using the Stanford algorithm or virtual phenotypes. Patients were grouped into four susceptibility categories ('GSS' or 'vPSS') during LLV, corresponding to the number of 'active' drugs prescribed: <1; 1–1.5; 2–2.5; and ≥3. Results: A total of 1702 patients with follow-up on constant therapy were eligible for analysis. Participants excluded due to changing therapy or loss to follow-up before their next observation had mostly similar characteristics to included participants. There was a 'dose-dependent' increase in the hazard ratio for virologic failure with susceptibility categories at LLV. Compared with a GSS of at least 3, hazard ratios for virologic failure were 1.4 for GSS 2–2.5; 2.0 for GSS 1–1.5; and 3.0 for GSS less than 1 (P < 0.001). Numerous sensitivity analyses confirmed these findings. Conclusion: Our results demonstrate that emergent HIV drug resistance at LLV is strongly associated with subsequent virologic failure. Furthermore, we uncovered a 'dose-dependent' increase in the hazard ratio for virologic failure with decreasing GSS estimated at the time of LLV. On the basis of these findings, we propose that resistance genotyping be encouraged for HIV-infected individuals on antiretroviral therapy experiencing low-level viraemia.

Bobro Engineering just introduced a great looking set of low profile "Lowrider Sights" on their Facebook page yesterday. This is about as low profile as it gets while still maintaining the normal functions of a set of backup sights such as windage and elevation adjustments, etc. not to mention these sights have secondary locks to ensure once you sight them in nothing moves after you zero the weapon. Check out the pics and details of this very cool set of sights below. Looks like first production run will be done after SHOT Show which is later this month.
Bobro Lowrider Sights (Patent Pending). We designed a set of sights that are truly low profile.
Design requirements—
1-Low as possible
3-Locks on opening
4-Fits under optics/mounts
We designed a side pivot mechanism for strength and the lowest possible profile that will remain durable. The side pivot has internal detents, and we also incorporated a drive pin lock system. You must depress a button to fold them back down.
These next two photos really show just how low profile they are.
Be sure to visit www.BobroEngineering.com and follow Bobro Engineering on Facebook for additional details as they become available.

Uncle Sam is a 1996 horror film directed by William Lustig, the director responsible for the Maniac Cop series…so there is some pedigree with dealing with the 'undead' here. Sadly it fails to deliver and falls into novelty very quickly.
There is always a weird contingent of American film that tries to reclaim some mythical idea of a conservative America for its viewers and reassure them that the progressive policies and practices like gay marriage and black people having the right to vote are just setbacks on the way to maintaining America's place as the greatest country in the world. By taking a closer look at the success of films like Lone Survivor and American Sniper, it is actually not that surprising that there are people who feel exiled by more traditional Hollywood fare.
Uncle Sam works as a critique of these kinds of films in a way, as the movie's main villain, the titular Sam, is a dead army sergeant who comes back to life on the Fourth of July and kills people who seemingly disrespect America, like a group of teenagers who burn an American flag, a teacher who opposed the Vietnam war, and a corrupt congressman, all while dressed as Uncle Sam.
Sam is eventually revealed to have been a terrible human being in real life. This critique of making the people who would revel in the kind of patriotic carnage that Sam engages in, side with a man who physically and sexually abused his family is biting in theory, but in practice is just limp as it is hidden inside a terrible movie.
The makeup department has Sam looking like a Freddy Krueger knockoff, which is clearly where the majority of the budget went, because the rest of the movie looks sickly, shot in a dreary grey pallet against incredibly sparse and uninteresting sets. It also is hard to even classify Sam as a zombie, because he acts more like the antagonist in a goofy slasher movie and less like a flesh-eating monstrosity. But hey, he's technically undead, so here we are.
It is hard to wallow through disjointed performances and staid direction that offers little pleasure, even in the mild carnage that Sam creates. And the weak satire only makes the affair more frustrating by simply angering the viewer that they are watching incredibly wasted potential.
So much could be done with the central conceit of Uncle Sam, but the lack of a strong vision, budget, or even enough care to want see the idea to the end creates something tedious out of something potentially acidic and important.
Probably the most interesting (and best executed) thing about this film was the lenticular poster that was developed that showed a traditional 'J.M. Flagg' stylized Uncle Sam, that morphs into the zombified and undead Uncle Sam of the film as you walked past it. You can see images of the Uncle Sam lenticular poster below.
