Me: (reading)
Hank: (snuggling up to me on the couch)
Me: Did you have a lovely Christmas, buddy?
Hank: Yes. (pause) Mama, I have been thinking and wasn't Maria Jóse supposed to come for Christmas?
Me: She was.
Hank: Why didn't she come?
Me: I have been meaning to talk to you about this. It is a long story and I am not sure the story will answer your question, but lets see, shall we?
Hank: (nodding)
Me: You remember in October when we had tea at Maria Jóse's house and she invited you for a sleepover? Well, when she booked the weekend she would've liked to have you and Irina (Hank's best friend) over it was at a time when Irina's mom could have asked to change weekends with Irina's dad so she could go, but between October and the assigned weekend in December as you know Irina's mom and dad have come to the point where they are no longer able to communicate or arrange things without a third person to help them.
Hank: I know. They have to go through the tribunal (courts). It happens sometimes in divorce.
Me: It does and it is never anyone's fault, feelings are complicated and sometimes people need to ask for help to better communicate, but because of the situation between Irina's parents the weekend needed to be rearranged, so I called Maria Jóse because Ana (Irina's mom) was very stressed and overwhelmed because she didn't want to disappoint Maria Jóse or Irina or you but she knew she wasn't able to ask Irina's dad for this favor. I explained the whole situation to Maria Jóse and asked her if we could reschedule for the following weekend but she had other plans. Because of ferias (school holidays) we agreed that you both would go to her the Monday after she got back from her trip. I could tell she was a bit disappointed, but a big part of friendship is being understanding and being willing to compromise. I tried to call her a few times after our conversation, but we didn't connect and then you Tio passed away
Hank: And that was the weekend we were supposed to go to Maria Jóse's. I remember you told me. I wouldn't have been able to go anyway.
Me: That's right, but remember I told you not to worry because we had rescheduled. When we returned from Alentejo and I went to meet Ana at the café to pick up Molly from her after work and Maria Jóse was there and we began chatting and were happy to see each other, but then Ana arrived and all of a sudden the conversation shifted and not in a kind way. Maria Jóse had questions about the sleepover and some adult matters and it was clear that contrary to what Maria Jóse said to me originally she was very upset we had asked her to reschedule the weekend and she felt used and deceived about some things.
Hank: Oh no.
Me: And that is where I was no longer able to keep my composure. I was very upset and felt lied to. I was upset she wasn't able to see the situation as us asking for her help and I felt as though she was attacking Ana for something that was beyond her control, so I raised my voice and we began to argue. The disagreement wasn't what was important and I should not have raised my voice, but we all do things when we are upset that are out of character. In the end I packed up Amália, apologized the owner of the café and left and I haven't heard from Maria Jóse since, nor do I think I will again.
Me: The bottom line is Maria Jóse had gone out of her way to make a magical weekend for you and Irina and when we asked to move the weekend it spoiled a bit of the magic for her. That makes me very sad because that would be the last thing I would wish, but Ana needed help and I was upset that she hadn't just said her true feelings from the beginning and therefore I reacted in an undignified like manner.
Hank: (sad) Friends need to help each other. You help the people you love if you can, that is what you always tell me. Maybe no one ever taught Maria Jóse that? Maybe she didn't understand that we love her and were just asking for her help?
Me: (wrapping him up in a hug) Maybe. Thank you for saying that. I needed to hear just that. )deep breath) I have been very confused about how something I thought was a simple favor could have done so much damage to a friendship I was honored to have. I don't know what the future will bring, but what I know to be true is none of this nonsense has anything to do with you or Irina. When you see Maria Jóse around town you run up to her and give her the biggest and best hug you can because she is a wonderful and special person.
Hank: I am worried she had her Christmas alone.
Me: I truly hope she had a wonderful holiday. I kept her in my heart as I always will, but what our argument showed me is that her concerns were focused on herself. She didn't hear that Ana and I were asking her for help she only saw how her weekend was spoiled. I would very much like to be wrong and if I misunderstood her I would truly apologize and ask for forgiveness, but until then I cannot have a friend who isn't compassionate, understanding and willing to compromise in a crisis.
Hank: Friendship isn't just about you.
Me: Nope.
Hank: I hope she knows she is special and so are we and that we can be friends again. I understand about the weekend. I also wanted to go, but Irina needs to have her weekends with her dad, too. It is a hard thing to understand, but I understand it. I want Maria Jóse to understand, too.
Me: As do I, Hank, but you have to be open to learn.
Hank: (nodding) I'm sorry about everything.
Me: I'm sorry, too.

Review: LOGAN, Superheroes Aren't Just for Kids Anymore
Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart star in James Mangold's moody action thriller LOGAN.
Tough, tense, thoughtful, and terrific, Logan is truly the first superhero movie for adults, not for kids or arrested adolescents.
Granted, it's best for adults who have a tolerance for bloody, vicious violence. One of the characters claims the violence is only wielded against people who deserve it and that's true for the most part. Nearly every time a fight breaks out, though, it threatens to be a fight to the death, since the assailants want to lock up (or kill) every super-powered mutant in sight.
Set in the near future, the movie immediately establishes a dark tone for the story that follows. Director James Mangold does not waste any time in revealing that James Howlett (Hugh Jackman), the birth name of the mutant known as Wolverine, may have retired from his career as an action hero, yet he still retains fierce fighting skills. When pushed too far, not only do the claws come out, but also the animalistic fury that the character has become known for over the past 17 years on the big screen.
By night, he drives a limousine, identifying himself as Howlett; by day, he is Logan once again, his adopted name, and cares for his old friend Charles (Patrick Stewart) on a rural property in West Texas. Fellow mutant Caliban (Stephen Merchant) also stays there and helps care for Charles. All of them have seen better days, and all of them have seen their mutant powers decline and weaken as they have aged.
Whatever advantages the mutants may have enjoyed in the past have disappeared by the time the story begins. They have been nearly wiped off the face of the earth. Those who remain are hunted down and/or experimented upon, most notably by Zander Rice (Richard E. Grant), an evil surgeon.
In service of Rice, the despicable Donald Pierce (Boyd Holbrook) comes calling at Logan's hideout, in search of a little girl named Laura (Dafne Keen). Logan wants nothing to do with anyone, really; he's trying to save money to buy a boat and head out to sea (and presumed safety) with Charles. Laura's mother has already entreated him for help, a plea that Logan rejected outright.
For all his gruff exterior and pained expressions, Logan still has a heart. When he sees Laura, is he seeing young Rogue (Anna Paquin), a girl he helped in X-Men (2000)? Perhaps, though this movie never makes it explicit. In any event, Laura's mother offers him a big wad of badly-needed cash to help them, and Logan is, reluctantly, in.
From there, the movie becomes a desperate chase thriller. Any time that Logan is standing still is a moment when he knows that attack is imminent, usually from an untold number of well-armed military men. His mission is simple: get Laura from West Texas to a location in the desolate, far north U.S., where safety is possible.
The road trip is aided and abetted by Charles. The trio form an odd sort of family, but what it really allows is for Jackman and Stewart to give performances that go beyond what they've done before in the X-Men series. Really, the success of the story depends on their chemistry as well as their ability to portray their familiar characters in unfamiliar circumstances.
It's not just the R-rated language, though it initially sounds almost shocking to hear their characters throwing around a plethora of f-words. It's not even the R-rated violence; after all, there is no glory in metallic claws poking through and tearing apart bodies; it's survival of the fittest.
More than that, it's the justifiable resignation that each of them feels and expresses in varying degrees. Actions have consequences, after all, and far more than the Man of Steel saying he's sorry for all the massive destruction he's caused, Jackman and Stewart are able to convey that anguish through their subtle facial expressions and body language.
It's not uncommon for people in their later years to feel genuine sorrow over the mistakes they've made and others they've hurt, either through their actions or inactions. It is uncommon to see those type of emotions in a superhero movie, and that is part of what makes Logan so effective.
The cleanly-choreographed action sequences are a definite bonus. Without relying overly much on the typical hack-and-slash editing that pollutes so many modern Hollywood action movies, the framing and staging makes allowance for the necessary intrusions of multiple stunt people while keeping things tight and comprehensible.
The on-point pacing helps tremendously. Film editors Michael McCusker and Dirk Westervelt not only knit together the action scenes effectively, they also maintain a good sense of momentum during the dramatic sequences, and enable the few comic moments room to breathe.
Logan is a captivating journey. It's almost a daytime noir that carries with it an air of inevitability, while simultaneously allowing little time for such thoughts. Yes, there are heroes in the movie, but there is also a strong, buffeting wind of discontent and disillusionment that is something quite distinct from what has come before in the genre.
The film opens wide in theaters throughout North America on Friday, March 3.
Around the Internet
ok. .......ONE - measly; ..PUNY, ...Trivial - ....perhaps annoying "nit" 2 pick here..
...With all due Respect ~ this typist is of opinion that it is Dredd that "marked" that territory (quite distinctly, too) first, -- as first superhero film (thru-and-thru) for the adult demographic..
- - -
*I almost feel a bit sacrilegious speaking that, ..but *WINK*; that's just the facts......
CAN'T wait for this flick though - and STELLAR Review either way..
Dredd was a fine Little Action flic with a Comicbook Background but without any much depth Story-or characterwise. Logan seem to have both, I guess that´s the Point of the reviewer calling this the first superhero movie for adults. And BTW Dredd is not a superhero to begin with.
I've earned 104,000 bucks in 2016 by freelancing from home and I did that by working part time for several hours every day. I used an earning opportunity I was introduced by this website i found online and I am thrilled that i earned so much extra income. It's really newbie friendly and I'm just so thankful that i discovered it. Here's what I did... http://statictab.com/r2tyhgi
Fair and fine - ....with some of that......
..However; I dunno; color me strange but it (might) all depend on what one defines as superhero.. .in the first place. And I was just working with a "strict" ridged working definition of superhero to begin with..
----- ....Why in your opinion - is this character not of the superhero mythology.???
- - -
Again - not wishing to be a "Richard" here at all with you ----- there's just a couple 'ah points I fundamentally disagree with..
..........In my opinion - within ANY action-fused film/script/ or story; one can't get much more multifaceted, talented, and sensitive to the smallest minutia of character details and eccentricities than what is portrayed with Urban's Dredd and Thirlby's Anderson.. ....they're both (quite literally) textural works of art.
My favorite part was when Logan the Shogun clawfukt Hulk Hogan and Seth Rogan.
I've made 104,000 bucks last year by doing an online job and I did it by working in my own time for several hrs each day. I followed a business opportunity I came across from this website i found online and I am amazed that i was able to make so much money. It's so user friendly and I am just so thankful that i discovered this. This is what i did... http://statictab.com/h8vxywm
Wonderful to hear. Great piece. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Nice review....makes me want to see it (am not too keen on most marvel and dc movies)
Yeah, um. That doesn't sound like it's for adults. It sounds like an action movie with extra swear words and some sulking. That's clearly arrested adolescence.
feel free to eject; if you grow tired with all of this.. (this IS - all in Goode Intention, though). - Are you speaking of Vampire Blade (and)/or Deckard here .??
nothing knew with this - but, they are Monumentally polarizing in size, shape, form,.. .....not to mention popularity..
here's a milk-out-nose Hysterical recommendation for ya at some point if you haven't seen it.. .and if Your Interested...
- - -
War On Everyone. ....VERY similar vibes to Stretch and Kill Me Three Times this..
OH yisss. Totally my cuppa. I will be picking that one up as soon as I can.
Funny you mentioned Stretch. I just watched that again for the umpteenth time last week. Such a fun flick.
Be well.
Beyond swear words and sulking, there is a deeper characterization of the leads, and a greater thematic weight to the picture that, in my opinion, lifts it cleanly into the adult realm.
Yeah, the vampire.
(Apologies for my brief fleeting salty language here..) --- I'm not wanting 2 be a 'dick' about this; With this in mind... ..in you're estimation - what are your thoughts on Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter.???
I've never actually seen Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter, any good?
I'd say it's Damnably *apologies* Impressive..
...it's one of the best vampire themed, let alone "monster" themed -- films that I have ever seen..
just for kicks, ~ the handful of other spooky favs. of mine are: Let Me In, Let the Right One In, Under the Skin, Open Grave, Spring, The Lure, Enemy, The Autopsy of Jane Doe, and Deep Rising.. *Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter and Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters also make that particular list - but those two ARE of more of a comedic nature...
Up-Vote. ~ even tho' I have yet to see it...
...that's actually why i'd be inclined to say, Deadpool and Watchmen are perhaps more (albeit VERY slightly) skewed towards a minutely "younger" age demographic; whereas Dredd and even High-Rise are of more of a "mature" disposition.. .due to the particular characters (and scripts) involved.....
I profited 104,000 thousand dollars last year by doing an on-line job and I was able to do it by working part-time for several hours /daily. I'm using work opportunity I came across from this website i found online and I am happy that i made so much extra income. It's user friendly and I'm just so thankful that i learned about it. Here's what I do... http://statictab.com/astkxim
I have earned 104000 bucks last year by working on-line from home and I was able to do it by working in my own time for 3 or sometimes more hours a day. I'm using an earning model I found online and I am excited that i made such great money. It's really user friendly and I am just so grateful that I found out about this. Here's what I do... http://statictab.com/h8vxywm
Stretch was a lot of fun and Kill Me Three Times was unexpectedly good, i didn't think i'd like it.
I'm not a huge horror fan, although i do love some of the classics a lot. Deep Rising was great though, and i enjoyed Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter a lot more than i expected to. The guy who played him reminded me weirdly of Liam Neeson, only about 35 years younger.
another one (or two) that slipped my mind ~ Black Out is bloody brilliant.
*RocknRolla and 2 Guns are also pretty cool imho..
meeeee aginnn.........
*he sings...*
don't shoot me with a Clark Kent look; but, - last night I had a bit of a weird deja vu of sorts about an EXCELLANT comedy (inde thru-and-thru) that I had seen a couple of times and (that I) then had subsequently Completely and Utterly forgot about -- til last night.
*I CAN-NOT remember if I've recommended this one to ya in the past.
It has ALL SORTS of similarities to the likes of Stretch, Kill Me Three Times, and War On Everyone...
.....this one is WAYY under-the-radar....... played at fantastic fest several years ago if I'm not mistaken; and, Indeed ~ it's Fantastic.
..here's an imdb for it.
Nice. I'll check it out. Thanks.

Martian's Wireless Mini-ITX FileserverApril 29, 2003
Martian Technology have taken some familliar Mini-ITX components and added an 802.11b wireless card and rolled their own custom Linux distribution to create the NetDrive, a Wireless fileserver with some neat tricks. As it uses the SMB Protocol it is Windows, Mac OS X and of course Linux compatible (Mac OS 9 support is coming through the AFP protocol). It can even wirelessly share a USB printer plugged directly into it, and knows how to talk to MP3 players and a whole host of other devices. The Netdrive is available in 40GB and 120GB Plug-and-go flavours, and in DIY form without a drive but with the Martian DevKit OS on CD (much more fun)
The "Commodore ITX-64"…April 28, 2003
Neil Jansen's "Commodore ITX-64"
…and the "Commodore 64 @ 933.000 Mhz"April 28, 2003
It's retro conversion time again. This time it's the Commodore 64, which was once the best personal computer in the world. DocLorren souped up his Commodore 64 to run at 933Mhz with an EPIA M9000, and Neil Jansen went one better and converted his super-rare Commodore SX64 luggable into a Mini-ITX box. Now, where did we put that Commodore 65?

The Mini-Box M-100April 27, 2003
Mini-Box.com, a subsidiary of Ituner Networks Corp., launched their Mini-Box M-100 PC at the Embedded Systems Conference last week. The aluminium framed M-100 measures just 200 x 44 x 220mm (WxHxD), weighs 1Kg and comes with an EPIA or EPIA V Mini-ITX motherboard.
The 256MB M-100 can boot either from the provided 64MB Compact Flash card running Embedded Linux or an optional 40GB 2.5" hard disk (as the M-100-A), and has a 14-key customizable keypad and rather natty looking built-in backlit LCD. Needless to say although aimed at the embedded market, it would make a perfect Linux firewall or MP3 server, and being a full PC can also run Windows. The M-100 is available in Black, Blue and Grey cases (as modelled in the picture above) and come in 533Mhz fanless Eden and 800Mhz C3 varieties. The snap-on PW-60 DC-DC converter that powers the M-100 and the Compact Flash adapter used in it are also available seperately.

Those crazy Japanase fools!April 27, 2003
As far as we can work out from our non-existent foreign language skills, a PC store and a cardboard box manufacturer in Japan have joined forces to create the ultimate mail order PC... Constructed entirely from cardboard, the CCPCBOX is of course Mini-ITX compatible, measures 188 x 211 x 375mm and has space for both a floppy drive and slimline optical drive. We'd like them to send us one for review - but how would they wrap it?
New from Casetronic - the C138April 24, 2003
Casetronic have added another Mini-ITX case to their growing range, the C138. This is of a similar design to the C134 and C136 announced last month, but has the benefit of PCI expansion with the supplied riser card and either a 60W or 90W power board included, with a seperate external 110-240V AC adapter. Available in black and silver, the case will measure 8"(203.2mm) x 4"(101.6mm) x 8"(203.2mm) and has 2 front mounted USB 2.0 ports, a firewire port and audio ports.

VIA launch EPIA M10000 (again)April 15, 2003
VIA have launched the Nehemiah version of the EPIA M10000, cunningly called - the new EPIA M10000. "Nehemiah" is the next generation C3 CPU core (existing boards use the Ezra-T core) - with much vaunted speed improvements and a data encryption engine. The Nehemiah architecture can be taken to higher speeds than the Ezra-T, which has reached the limits of its abilities. Other specifications and board layout is exactly as with the existing M10000: VIA Apollo CLE266 chipset with MPEG-2 decoder, ATA/133, 1 x DDR266 SDRAM slot, 5.1 surround sound (now named VIA Vinyl Six-TRAC Audio), Firewire, USB 2.0, S-Video/RCA TV output, 10/100 Ethernet and 1 PCI slot - all in a 17x17cm Mini-ITX package. On the retail board at least, LVDS support is once again theoretical - with a gap on the board marked "LVDS" signifying what could have been. Some Nehemiahs have apparently reached US online stores - although certainly in Europe, VIA still have Ezra-T stock to clear first. We'll bring you some test results soon and see what difference the new core actually makes!

PimpRig build an ORAC! (kind of)April 08, 2003
Fantazmic2 (not his real name, we hope), a regular at PimpRig.com has created a wonderful smoked acrylic case, constructed from green acrylic rods to "enhance the look of the hardware by removing the casings to expose the insides". We like it because it looks a bit like ORAC...

Angus started sailing at a young age at the local club at Plockton in a Mirror dinghy, wind surfing as well as yacht cruising quickly followed for him. He was very fortunate to be given the use of his Grandfather's Junk rigged 22ft. Newbridge Venturer bilge keel yacht to use when he was only thirteen.
Continuing sailing keelboats he bought his first Flying Fifteen when he was sixteen. As well as grabbing every opportunity to go yacht cruising around the West Coast of Scotland and beginning to get more into dinghy racing at his club with a 505. The Racing bug had grown now, and he competed with a Squib at the Royal Tay Yacht Club, in the UK and European Championships.
Angus first came to Cumbrae at seventeen taking his first RYA course (Level 2 Powerboat). Then deciding that a career in teaching sport might be for him, so he began studying in Edinburgh Telford College for an HND in sports coaching. While doing this course he was also teaching swimming and life saving. This gave him the opportunity of competing in the World Life Saving Championships in both South Africa and New Zealand. Finishing in 6th place in the initiative test (responding to incident and emergency) at Durban.
After college Angus started coaching dinghy sailing in Australia at Geelong Grammar School. This prompted him to gain his dinghy instructors ticket, and on his return UK to become a windsurfing instructor and kayak level two coaches, as well as passing his Yachtmaster Offshore certificate. His enthusiasm and enjoyment of working with people outdoors especially on the water had made him decide on a career in watersports.
Before joining Cumbrae, Angus worked at the British Kiel Yacht Club in Germany for four and a half years, providing adventurous training for the joint services. This also allowed him to continue with his own training and becoming a Yachtmaster Instructor. Co-skippering the 57ft. yacht 'Flamingo', one of the WW II 100 square metre windfall boats built in 1935 for '36 Hitler Olympics', which the British forces took as reparation after the war. It was with this yacht, that Angus was lucky enough to campaign in the Baltic Sprint Cup, while he was in Germany.
This will be Angus's fifth season at Cumbrae and it is great to have such a knowledgable instructor as part of the team.
Top Tips.
Angus's has come up with some interesting top tips when using bigger boats either sail or power.
Many people use boats as a couple. Make sure your wife/partner is aware of how to recover you in the event that either of you fall overboard. Both need to know how to use; the lifebuoy/danbouy man over board kit, VHF, how to drop any sails as required and start the engine. Label halyard ropes etc. or any complicated engine starting procedure as a memory aid. Some handy device to bring the casualty back on board the boat must also be thought about.
Practice this MoB drill with just the two of you out there!
Angus recommends if you're approaching shallow water to make sure your speed is less than the depth i.e. if the depth is two metres make your boat speed two knots or less. That way, if you do touch the bottom, you touch gently! Remembering to set the shallow depth alarm on the echo sounder for five metres, can act as a reminder of any potential depth problems that may have been missed.
When coming into harbour to tie up in the rain. Ask your crew to take their hoods down, so that they can hear you, rather than shouting.
Finally, don't run out of tea or coffee if you want a happy skipper!
Angus's favourite piece of clothing kit – His mid layers as they keep him warm and dry.
What Angus adds to Cumbrae – Good all round knowledge on all the equipment and the best advice on how to use it.

It's safe to say that after years of investment and hard work, the Manchester City academy is now producing some excellent talent – even if many of them don't reach the first team.
Phil Foden, Brahim Diaz, Jadon Sancho, Angus Gunn and Pablo Maffeo are just five examples of the high quality talent to have come through the ranks lately, and more are on their way.
On Tuesday night, two starlets won their first caps at senior level for their countries.
City's current second-choice goalkeeper Aro Muric, 20, who has played in both Carabao Cup ties this season, kept a clean sheet on debut for Kosovo against Azerbaijan.
Muric, who could have chosen from a number of countries and represented Montenegro at under-21 level, played the full 90 minutes of Kosovo's 4-0 win in the UEFA Nations League.
This man had a monumental display on his international debut for #Kosovo.
Arijanet Aro Murici 🇽🇰
What a player, great future ahead of him.#KOSAZE #BashkëPërKosovën #BashkëPërDardaninë pic.twitter.com/Vvk2WVkEe7

Meanwhile, after calling him up due to several withdrawals, Ryan Giggs handed 18-year-old Rabbi Matondo a senior debut in Wales' friendly against Albania at the Elbasan Arena.
City under-23 winger Matondo replaced Sam Vokes after 78 minutes but couldn't turn things around as Wales fell to a 1-0 defeat.
Even so, a memorable and unexpectedly early debut for Rabbi, who is the fastest player at City, with recorded speeds even quicker than those of Leroy Sané and Kyle Walker.
SUBS! Sam Vokes makes way for Rabbi Matondo to make his debut and Connor Roberts is off for Kieron Freeman, another debutante for Wales. #TogetherStronger

Just a quick post to say I am so excited to be back in the pulpit preaching on Sunday!
Though we didn't get to go to Bend, Oregon as originally planned (hopefully a little later) we did get to visit family for a few days in Astoria. We spent most of our time at home accomplishing several household cleaning projects, organizing bedrooms, the living room, kitchen and even cleaning out the basement. We are now on a first name basis at Goodwill and the dump!
I was also able to get my study almost totally back in order thanks to Anton's help these past couple of weeks. My floor has been repainted, around 2000 books that have been in boxes since being cataloged in a software program back in June are finally back on the shelves. (Thanks to Dan Savage who was able to lend a hand with data entry before he got his new job.) I am looking forward to a new productivity as it has been hard at times to focus with my study in boxes.
In my spare time Anton and I also launched my new website SoundPulpit.com which will host a blog along with an archive of all of my preaching searchable by date, text, series, service and topic. It is up and running but will require a lot of work getting all of my sermons loaded up. When it's finished I hope it will be a great resource to the saints whom I have the privilege to serve and the two or three people who may read this. 🙂

Trans Talks – The Big Cities/in General /by Zane
The Big Cities of our country was up next for the Trans Talk Roadshow, but first an "intimate session" with the boys from Pietermaritzburg in Greg Minnaar Cycles. It was a small group of people but a good talk with lots of questions and discussion on the Trans Baviaans.
Centurion, a predicted 150 people for the evening, the biggest Trans Talk yet at The Bicycle Company. Johan Labuschagne gave some insight on his experience of racing the Trans Baviaans as a multiple title winner of the race in his own shop. Polar once again delivered with an excellent insight to training for this event.
The Gauteng area saw more Trans Talks as stops where made in Klerksdorp at Tailwind Cycles and in Johannesburg at Melow Velo Cycles.
Bloemfontein was a big surprise with over 80 people for the Free State Capital, the talk was done in Afrikaans in true "Vrystaat" style.
It was Cape Town Cycle Tour week in the Cape and the Trans Talks kicked of with Stellenbosch on the Tuesday evening at Extreme Lights offices. Charl from Extreme lights added value with a quick demo on the lights!
Polar and Extreme lights collaborated to demonstrate a solution for your GPS battery life / run time! This is an ideal setup for the Trans Baviaans, taking into account that the route is not marked, its a 24hr race, you need lights and that Polar is the only unit we know of that will navigate while plugged into a power source!
Cape Town at Revolution Cycles was the last stop of the "Big City" Trans Talk tour.
Only two Trans Talks are left for the tour with home town George and Knysna this week.

First Round – Trans Talk 2017/in General /by Zane
The Trans Talks in the Eastern Cape region 2017.
The first round of Trans Talks has been very well received in Port Elizabeth and East London last week. Port Elizabeth saw double the number of people from the previous year and The Bike & Brew was jam packed with 90% of the mountain bikers being Trans Baviaans rookies. This made for a very attentive crowd as Wikus van der Walt explained the story of how it all started, Harald Zumpt from Polar gave everyone a sigh of relieve with the valuable tips on training for the 230km route and Nick Cape from PowerBar explained the importance of nutrition.
East London Cycles hosted the first Trans Talk in the "Slum" town after a request from the local riders. "The amount of riders that showed up for the talk on a Friday evening amazed us" said Zane Schmahl from Ecobound. Some very interesting questions was asked and the Ice Cold Darling Brew went down well as everything MTB was discussed.

Luus and Stelling Claim Trans Baviaans Victory with a Tactical Masterstroke
Trans Baviaans first timer Lourens Luus teamed up with old hand Billy Stelling to successful effect as the PowerBar 1 pairing rode to Trans Baviaans victory on Saturday 13 August. The race was the first of two weekends of Trans Baviaans action and joining Luus and Stelling on the top step of the podium were; Yolandi de Villiers, Johan Labuschagne and Neill Ungerer, of Ultimate Cycling TBC, in the mixed category and Theresa Ralph and Amy McDougall, of Galileo Risk Valencia in the women's category.
The 230km race started at 10:00 in Willowmore on Saturday morning. A steady early pace was set by in large by the ASG Best-Med teams, with Labuschagne and Ungerer also doing turns on the front. The expected tail wind failed to materialise and instead a slight head wind kept the lead bunch together until around the 80km mark when the jockeying for positions heading into Check Point 2, at 104km, started. At Check Point 2 the experience started to show for teams like Ultimate Cycling TDC as they tended to navigate the potentially confusing check point zones; where riders had to check in, fill bottles, stock up on nutrition, collect essentials for the next leg from their check point boxes and check out again in good time. Stelling and Luus had clearly planned their check point strategy too and managed to minimize their time off the road.
Heading into the Baviaanskloof Nature Reserve the race started to splinter as first the Frangs and then The Mother of All Climbs (The MAC) took their toll. Up front Stelling and Luus were joined by the Altech-Autopage duo of Pieter Seyffert and Hanco Kachelhoffer. Behind them on the road the leading mixed team of de Villiers, Labuschagne and Ungerer were riding with the third placed men's team of Steven Shirley and Juan-Pierre Minnie riding as team On Your Bike. A little further back the race for second in the mixed category was hotting up as the RMB Change A Life duo of Martin Dreyer and Jeannie Bomford had caught the Merrell Mixed trio of Craig Boyes, Timo Cooper and Nicky Gillomee.
Stelling appeared to be struggling up The MAC, so Seyffert and Kachelhoffer attacked in the final phases of the climb to claim the PowerBar King of the Mountain prize. However, once over the climb the four leaders all missed the Bergplaas check point at the crest of the climb and had to track back, nullifying the 20 second gap the Altech-Autopage guys had garnered. The first woman to crest The MAC climb and claim the PowerBar Queen of the Mountain was the high flying de Villiers.
Descending the Big Dipper Seyffert and Kachelhoffer again pulled a lead on Stelling and Luus, but Luus dug deep when they reached the kloof below to re-join the leaders. For the next 50km Luus sat at the front of the lead group setting a steady pace, while Stelling recovered on the back of the group. Heading up the Never Ender climb the race for outright victory appeared to enter a stale mate.
The Trans Baviaans is famed for its need for strong teamwork and in the final reckoning it was teamwork that settled the two closest battles. In the mixed category race for second the advantage of having three riders in a team allowed the Merrell Mixed trio to reel in the RMB Change A Life duo. Gillomee took turns hanging on Cooper and then Boyes' pockets as they powered up the Never Ender passing Dreyer and Bomford. In the men's race the decisive move came at the self-service Check Point 6. Stelling passed the check point tag to Luus in the approach to the check point and while the stronger Luus stopped to tag the PowerBar 1 team in Stelling continued up the road. The Altech-Autopage team stopped together, but when Luus accelerated away from the check point to catch Stelling they were unable to hold his wheel. Despite having nearly 40km to race Stelling and Luus managed to hang on; eventually even extending their lead when Seyffert and Kachelhoffer eased off the pace in the closing kilometres once it became clear the pursuit was futile.
In the mixed category the Ultimate Cycling RDC team of de Villiers, Labuschagne and Ungerer crossed the finish line, at the Fountains Mall, hot on the heels of team On Your Bike, the third men's team made up by Shirley and Minnie who they'd ridden with for most of the day. The trio's victory was their fourth in the Trans Baviaans mixed category. Behind them Boyes, Cooper and Gillomee, of Merrell Mixed, finished strongly to claim second while the RMB Change a Life duo of Martin Dreyer and Jeannie Bomford were third.
The women's category race failed to ignite into a racing spectacle when an early mechanical for Hanlie Booyens dropped her and her Tiletoria Ladies teammates, Fienie Barnard and Esther Lategan off the pace of eventual winners Ralph and McDougall. Riding on tired legs, following her recent Iron Bike stage race exploits in Italy, McDougall was not happy with the time she and Ralph managed. The very competitive pair would have liked to have challenged the mixed teams more closely, but it wasn't too be so their attention shifted to enjoying the route and there surely could not have been a team who finished the first event of the 2016 Trans Baviaans with bigger smiles than the Galileo Risk Valencia duo. Closing out the women's podium was the Ander Fairies duo of Franci Joubert and Lolita van Aardt.
With the first of the two Trans Baviaans events wrapped-up the attention now shifts to the second event, which takes place on the 20th and 21st of August. Along with the other prizes the victors of the second Trans Baviaans event win entries to the first event in 2017 to ensure that the strongest possible field attend the first event each year.

Trans Talk Information Evenings/in Newsletters /by Zane
The first Trans Talk took place way back in 2004 right before the very first Trans Baviaans 24hr MTB marathon. The distance was unheard of, the riders didn't know if it was possible to do, there was a buzz of excitement and nerves mixed together in the month leading up to the inaugural race. A couple of locals from Knysna asked Wikus van der Walt the founder of the race to come and tell them what to expect!
The idea was borne and the race has grown from about 250 riders in the first year to now having 2 events on 2 consecutive weekends and both are sold out. Team Ecobound embarked on a roadshow this year visiting the main centres with a Trans Baviaans Information session dubbed the Trans Talks. The tour started in Johannesburg at the Sportmans Warehouse in Fourways and then moved to The Bike and Brew in Port Elizabeth, Sportmans Warehouse Bloemfontein, Greg Minnaar Cycles in Pietermaritzburg, Knysna Cycle Works in Knysna and then the last evening was at Sportmans Warehouse Rondebosch Cape Town.
All the evenings where well attended and enjoyed by everyone. We had expert advise on nutrition from PowerBar, Extreme Lights got technical with light information, Squirt gave away some goodies for everyone that attended and Darling Brew did tastings in Cape Town. The stores that hosted the Trans Talk's offered some great specials to everyone that joined. Special speakers included veteran Berend Maarching (who did every single race) with some of his tips, podium finishers like Nick Cape and more.
"We will make a downloadable version of the presentation available to all that did not attend the Trans Talks" said Zane Schmahl Event Organiser.
"The Trans Talk Roadshow will be launched again for 2017 with hopefully more towns to be visited in our country after many requests confirming the demand for them" said Wikus van der Walt Race Director.
The team from Ecobound will now turn their full focus to the event itself that will take place on 13 & 20 August 2016 which is just around the corner.
Newsletter #5-16/in Newsletters /by Zane
Ek is besig met hierdie nuusbrief soos die Ecobound span in Bloemfontein sit, besig om reg te kry vir die #TransTalkBloem. Ons is verstom met die geweldige ondersteuning wat ons kry van ryers vêr en wyd in ons land vir hierdie informasie aande oor die Trans Baviaans en sal ons beste probeer om volgende jaar n groter toer te doen!
The Baviaans Kloof.
We have been through the Baviaans Kloof last week. It is dry at the moment with very little river crossings to be concerned about at this stage, but if the past has taught us anything it is that everything can change in the kloof very quickly. The roads are very good except for some of the steep climbs where the cement strips are deteriorating and leaving some big "gaps" in the road
Trans Talk Road Show
So far the Trans Talk's have been a huge success with some valuable tips and information shared. We have been pleased with the turn out of veterans of the Trans Baviaans also attending the evenings and adding value. If you are in the area listed below please book your spot and join us in Knysna or Cape Town.

The All New Trans Tour.
With the launch of the second event in 2015, we had these guys, some would call them crazy, some would call them stupid and some would call them very brave, that took up the challenge of riding the first Trans Baviaans from Willowmore to Jeffreys Bay, then ride back to Willowmore through the Baviaanskloof during the following week and then soldier onto the start of the second Trans Baviaans 24hr MTB Marathon! Now that brings Trans Spirit to a whole new level!
We will now be offering a Trans Tour in the week between the two events from 15th August to 19th August 2016 for those crazy enough to take up the challenge (as the guys from last year), for those who want to take their better half through the kloof on a more relaxed journey, for those wanting to reminisce about the race (see some views in daylight) or for those who want to mentally prepare for what is about to come!

It is a rainy season here in the Toledo, Ohio and surrounding areas. The rain just keeps coming. Some lawns have flooded, others are soft and squishy. These circumstances make mowing impossible until drying has occurred to some extent.
While we can become frustrated and stressed over not being able to care for our clients lawns on their scheduled days, such worry does no good. Until someone invents a hover boat which is capable of mowing flooded lawns, all we can do is wait out the storms. (If you create said invention remember who you got the idea from.)
Waiting out the storm is something we need to do in many areas of life. Worry does not change anything. In fact, allowing stress to build only makes matters worse. Instead, it is wise to find something else to work or focus on.
For us, while waiting for the sun to come out, and waiting for the storm to pass, there are other areas of business to which we can attend. Writing blog posts such as this one, reaching out in search of new clients, fixing the website. In the entrepreneurs life there is always work waiting on the back burner.
If you are going through your own storm at this time of life, whether that is health, financial, family, or any number of storms, remember, the rain will eventually stop. The sun will come out and shine. And on the other side of your storm you will find the blossoms blooming.

Syria's army has issued orders to return home for men conscripted for compulsory service in 2010, the year before war broke out, fighters and local media said Saturday.The decision ends the drawn-out deployment of thousands of Syrians who enlisted for the mandatory 18 months of military service in 2010, but who ended up serving for eight years because of the war. Before Syria's conflict erupted in 2011, men 18 and older had to serve between 18 months and two years in the armed forces, after which they remained part of the reserves.

Sandra Rolle
Dying to Live: Cancer Survivor Hails National Health Insurance Bahamas Programme
On a tranquil Saturday afternoon, Sandra Rolle strikes a quietly confident pose for the photographer. She is days away from another birthday and wants to capture this milestone for her daughter and grandkids who live in the United States.
Her slight 5 feet 1 inch stature betrays nothing of her truly resilient nature. After two brushes with death, hearing six dreaded words nearly shattered her world again.
"You have stage three breast cancer," the doctor had told her.
That was 13 birthdays ago, but Sandra remembers it as if it were yesterday.
"All that came to my mind was 'I'm gonna die'. Instantly that's all I felt. 'I'm gonna die. Cancer is a killer' and then I just started crying."
Suddenly, the mother, daughter, sister and friend who had always been there for everyone was the one in need; in need of support, comfort, reassurance and prayers.
Moments later, she made the tough decision to have her breast removed.
"It was a good thing, they said, that I made that decision because everything was confined right there in one sac and the doctor told me had I waited another week or two the sac would have ruptured," she recalls.
What followed was many agonizing months of recovering from a major surgery as well as chemo-therapy and radiation treatments.
Breast cancer is the most common form of cancer affecting women in The Bahamas. Scientists and medical researchers have been investigating how a specific gene mutation, BRCA, is contributing to its prevalence.
Screenings, like mammograms, have played a critical role in detecting breast cancer at an early stage and can truly save lives. Such procedures for cancer, heart disease, diabetes and sexually transmitted infections are covered under the primary care benefits of the National Health Insurance Bahamas (NHI Bahamas) plan which will start this year. It will be one less expense that patients have to pay for at the point of service. Annual physical exams, specific diagnostic procedures and blood, cholesterol and glucose testing will also be covered under NHI Bahamas.
"NHI Bahamas is about extending to Bahamians who struggle to afford health care costs a measure of comfort in knowing that they can access vital medical procedures, testing and treatments under this plan," says Dr. Delon Brennen, NHI Bahamas Project Manager.
"These Primary Care services have the potential to positively impact not only individuals who access them but also improve the Bahamian health care system on the national level. By removing the need to pay for these specific services from the equation, it means more Bahamians, many of whom do not currently have health insurance, will be able to get the kind of health care they need," he adds.
Back then, as a nurse at the Princess Margaret Hospital, Sandra was more knowledgeable than most about what she would likely endure after her cancer diagnosis. Nevertheless, she survived one of the single biggest challenges she has ever faced.
The expenses associated with cancer screenings and treatments is a familiar complaint for Sandra, now Vice President of the Sister Sister Bahamas organization, a support group for Bahamians who have experienced breast cancer. As a survivor, she has helped to counsel other women who faced similar circumstances.
Sandra and many other Bahamians are eagerly anticipating NHI Bahamas.
"It could help save many more lives. NHI Bahamas means a brighter future for my daughter and granddaughter because they will be able to have their screenings done free of charge," she says.
As she prepares to celebrate another year of life, she is hopeful about the future of the health care system under NHI Bahamas, which will provide modern, affordable and accessible health care services to all Bahamians.

70-YO Indore Man Sets Green Example, Grows His Own
70-YO Indore Man Sets Green Example, Grows His Own Food In His Terrace Garden!
The Better India
Indore-based Arun Anand graduated with an engineering degree from IIT-Roorkee back in 1971.
The engineer worked for over 15 years in Russia, Egypt and Georgia.
In the last five years, the retired engineer, now 70, has managed to set up a beautiful terrace garden where he grows most vegetables, fruits and leafy greens.
But post-retirement, when he decided to settle down in Indore, where he owns a home, things panned out differently.
He speaks to The Better India about what drove him to rooftop gardening.
"Most fruits and vegetables available in the market are genetically modified. In the greed of increasing yield and cloning these vegetables and fruits, we seem to have forgotten how damaging to human health the toxins in these crops can be. I read F William Engdahl's book, Seeds of Destruction: The Hidden Agenda of Genetic Manipulation, which speaks about the destructive power of these genetically modified seeds and also came across research that linked genetically-modified crops to the rising cases of cancer. This pushed me to start growing my own food," says Arun.

My thesis has two main aims. The first aim is the chord recognition of recorded music, and the second is making a music improvisation in real-time based on the recognized chords.
Chords are typical building blocks of Western European music. Basically, a chord is when more musical tones sound simultaneously, creating a harmony. A proficient musician is able to recognize chords based on hearing. For less experienced musicians – who are not able to recognize chords by ear – a chord recognizer software could be very helpful. This kind of software can help to learn music easier also in the case when no sheet music is available. It can also support music transcription or adaptation. In addition, a well-functioning chord recognizer program opens the possibility of making a large chord database, which then can be used for machine learning for musical genre recognition or automatic composition/improvisation, to name a few applications.
Chord recognition is still an evolving research area, by the very nature of the problem, exact solutions do not exist. Instead, many different approaches are used in the literature, some are based on pattern matching algorithms, on Hidden Markov-model approach (learning parameters of the model), or machine learning with neural network, and so on. These concepts model human decision mathematically with probabilistic methods. Because the simple signal processing methods first tried did not lead to adequate results, I have chosen the Hidden Markov-model as base of my algorithm. The starting point of the developed algorithm is thus an approach based on the Hidden Markov model published in the literature, which I have improved with own ideas and extensions. I have implemented the chord recognition algorithm in Matlab environment, and tested the accuracy of my method on a sufficiently large music database.
In second part of my thesis I focused on creating a music improvisation with computer. Ideally, a software, with such a feature could be used in teaching music improvisation, or as a virtual musician for practicing, if the real musicians is not available. During my work I implemented both a real time and an offline version of the algorithm. I have concentrated on the real time software, due to personal interest. I used the offline program for testing and development purposes. My real time software detects the tempo of the music - recorded by microphone - within 10 seconds. After that the program is synchronizing with the music, and creates monophonic music improvisation based on the detected chords. In this program I have implemented a simpler chord recognition algorithm, but the accuracy of this is enough for music improvisation. Besides that I also implemented a chord sequence recognizer feature, which is able to predict the next chord, based on the recognized chord loop, and continue the improvisation with this information. I have implemented this program in C++ language within the JUCE framework. In the appendix I share the source code of the program, the executable file, and an example melody made by the real time software.

There are ants everywhere. Everywhere. Ants. This in it of itself is not an unusual thing as ants are arguably the most ecologically successful group of organisms on the planet. Most places on earth have a respectable ant fauna, particularly containing those found in association with humans (looking at you Tapinoma sessile). Yet since coming here I have been quite taken at the diversity of ant species and the equally diverse ways they make their living. Below are a few of these neat six legged ladies I've met so far.
Leafcutter ants – Atta cephalotes
If you have seen a row of leaves moving through the forest, it was likely due to these ants, who harvest leaves to feed to their fungus garden. I found several colonies on BCI, one which had several nests (they are polydomous, and single colony will inhabit several nests) right next to the cafeteria. Them seem to only harvest young tender leaves which given their lack of physical defenses would be easiest for them to cut.
Atta are perfect examples of morphological variation among the worker castes. Among the sterile female workers there are several different size of workers produced. The largest workers (called majors) have exaggerated heads which can assist in their job of carrying leaves back to the colony. While ~15% of ant species have this variation (often called polymorphism) it is unclear why some species have them and others don't.
Bullet ants – Paraponera clavata
When we were walking down to the canopy crane a giant ant walked across the stairs. I have heard tale of the fearsome bullet ant, and yet in person it was quite adorable with long antenna and a slender figure. This was a lone worker probably foraging for live insect prey but individuals frequent the canopy to also forage for nectar. Its common name comes from their fearsome sting it has one of the highest ratings on the Schmidt pain index. There is a great description of the sensation by Alex Wild here. I am really excited to find a colony and if I happen to be stung, so be it in the name of science.
Army ants – Eciton burchellii
This colony of army ants we found on pipeline road is one of several ant lineages to independently evolve the so called legionnaire syndrome (nomadic lifestyle, raiding swarms etc). They form bivouacs, temporary nests and then make raiding swarms to capture arthropods and even some small vertebrates. I was super excited to see them for many reasons, but especially for their amazing soldier caste. They have large exaggerated mandibles that are thought to be a defense against any foolish vertebrates to cross them. So large are their jaws that they must be feed by their smaller sisters!

South Park Kitchen dishes comfort to beer fans
Homestyle soups, skillets, pies, and sandwiches
Ian Anderson 1:56 p.m., Jan. 27
1702 India Street, Little Italy
One thing I like about Napizza is that they were serious about going green from the get-go. They claim to be the first pizzeria in San Diego certified by the Green Restaurant Association. They try to buy local and organic. And they promise that all their proteins are hormone and antibiotic free.
But the claim I like best is they don't hurry their pizza dough. "Up to" 72 hours. This gives the yeast time to do its thing and deliver more lightness, and, they claim, means they end up using 80 percent less yeast.
And, I swear, the pizza dough you get is more tangy. It has that molasses-sweet-bitter thing you get in a good San Diego IPA.
I've been hanging around Little Italy lately, trying to keep pace with new stuff happening. So tonight I have to stop and see what's new at Napizza. (Still not sure: is that short for "Pizza, Naples style?")
The Reader used to be located right opposite, so I got to know these guys back in the day. Since then they have expanded to Hillcrest and 4S Ranch. Tonight I want to try their Happy Belly Combos, new since last I came.
Basically we're talking pizza, soup or salad, and a drink. This is Little Italy, so nothing is cheap-cheap. But they're reasonable. Start at $10 for a soup, salad, soda combo. Eleven bucks buys you one slice of pizza, soup or salad, and a soda. "Happy Beer Belly" has two slices of pizza and a draft beer for $15. I go top dollar and order the $15 "Happy Wine Belly." It's one slice of pizza, soup or salad — I get the salad — and a glass of house red or white.
Yes, I worry about just one slice. But turns out it's more than enough.
I get the veggie parmigiano with a green pesto sauce squirted over the top, a big square sliced corner to corner, and a multi-leaf salad topped with goat cheese. Tasty. Best of all, the wine is Astica 2014, a strong young Malbec from Cuyo, Argentina, that comes in a nice clunky preserving-jar glass. (I hate those delicate-stemmed beauties that make you nervous every time you pick your wine up to sip.)
I settle in to their streetside patio and watch the world go by on the corner of Date and India, right in the heart of the village. Sunset, Friday night, you can't do better if you're into chewing, chatting, and checking out the passing parade from the catbird seat.
The main news: the pizza is squelchy and tasty on top, but the dough is still crispy light and hasn't lost its tang. Slow is beautiful!
Sorry Ed, that picture reminds me a Soylent Green. It is not an appetizing portrait of food.
I gotta agree with you there! I thought a Martian got blenderized for the topping.
Don't listen to him, Ed, I think it looks simply scrumptious! Will have to give this place a try next time I'm in Little Italy...
