Mick , in answer to your question, there were stonemason and carpenters " cards " in action but word has been passed on.
Vossie, nice pics thanks, and a pleasure to have you. On this trip I have remarked on the amount of Herons and the fact that they are quite tame [ brave ?]. Twice myself and Ben have witnessed a Heron catch a fish and eat it within a few yards of us . Lots of times they have stood on the bank as 4E passed by.
This one from Ben of one that actually flew alongside the moving boat to catch fish.
This one was sitting on a bridge parapet above us and only flew off as we came under and I pointed the camera at him.
And this lovely one from Vossie only flew as I walked towards it .
Vossie has kindly given me his shots of the final leg of our journey for this season and I will share some with you.
First off is the multi-arched "Jackson's Bridge" with 4E in the chamber of Lock 14.
This is the stretch which follows, as we approach Maynooth through "Bond Bridge".
On the way towards Lock 13 at Leixlip.
The jetty on the city side of Lock 13.
Sean ,
you are welcome aboard at any time just sorry the particular day at Hill of Downs we were on the way home. Did hear you were at the Hatch last weekend - keep it up, the dream will happen. Small group with these larger ladies but they are all willing to open out to people.
P.S "Is feidir leat" - [my dream happened ].

The Winter has passed and the project finished ( ish !!), and the day dawned where the photos you dream about are available. A lovely sunny day with good company - Snark and Hawthorn - and all tucked in for the evening at Lock 10 Ashtown. That bridge is to be tested on Saturday morning , anyone who wants to witness it - come on down!
The next step on our journey is to the Blackwood Feeder from where 4E was taken in 1955 to go to the Royal Canal in Longford as a maintenance boat. I will fill in the gaps from Confey when I get a chance, in the meantime - happy and safe boating to everyone.
Seems WI know yis are on the way...!!
Wow Joe that last photo is awesome.
Like the other pics, but the last one should be a poster or the front cover of IWN, or front cover of the national transport guide.
The taking of 'that' picture - Joe T goes free running:
Hi Joe, the M50 shot is fantastic, you should sell it to the papers.
and 'the new funny looking shed' looks great.
for those not in the know, 'the shed' refers to Joes son calling my new wheelhouse by that name (not Ben, the older one), a few years (well maybe more than a few) ago.
Les 41M
Brilliant stuff Joe and a classic photo shot, I suspect we will see it again...!
Having seen the wheelhouse in its "raw state" the finished product looks really well.
10 out of 10 to the apprentice !
Hope to drop in on ye all in Dublin in the not too distant future.
PS: Just might have the camera with me........
Richard Ellis
Virginia Lady
Thanks to you all for your support and 4E is safely in Grand Canal Dock after a great trip into Dublin, there was a lot of last minute stuff before the off and it all held together thankfully. Beth we didn't put mast up but a flag pole was in action.
I will fill in the gaps (soon!)
Agreed Richard, it is quite the collection. I promised to fill in the gaps so this is the start of it. 4E was very quickly scrambled to action with the impending bridge lift date, so set sail with internals very unfinished.
I didn't mention before but the Confey Winter community, who are much depleted and soon to be gone altogether, were very gratefull for the hospitallity of the RCAG and to show this a couple of days were spent giving the boat house a much needed lick of paint.
So 10.30 am on Thursday after our five month winter lay-up, we set off in convoy ( Snark, 4E and Hawthorn ) and with Ashtown as our goal our day was a lovely one to travel the canal. The WI crews were still in evidence from Clonsilla and a huge job has been done on the deep sinking which is a difficult area to get at and full marks to them for a job well done.
Congrats Joe. Btw, that fabulous M50 photo is one of the best photo's I've ever seen. The Irish Times would bite your hand off for a shot like that. I hope it gets the exposure it deserves. It would also make a great poster for IWAI events and publicity.
The Deep Sinking at Clonsilla is a special place on a good day and we certainly had one, the first two pics are from Ben who was bank crawling, the third is from Giles who had slipped into the middle after we had a little diesel scare.
The 12th lock at Castleknock was our first since October 2011 and was handled easily with Des in attendance. The sun brought out the 'gongoozelers' in droves which adds to the atmosphere and good practice when heading townwards.

They'll be creeping 'round the mountain at Nashoba Valley Ski Area in Westford, as the slopes give way to slithering, slimy ghouls at the ski resort's annual Witch's Woods Halloween attraction.
They'll be creeping 'round the mountain at Nashoba Valley Ski Area in Westford, as the slopes give way to slithering, slimy ghouls at the ski resort's annual Witch's Woods Halloween attraction.
Al Fletcher, owner of Nashoba Valley Ski Area, said, new this year is Horrorwood Chamber of Chills, a tribute to Hollywood horror icons – not actual actors or characters, but a panoply of archetypal scenes movie fans will instantly recognize, including mummies, vampires and the leering like.
"Each character is surrounded by a set, with special effect lighting," said Fletcher. Kind of like an art museum, but a lot noisier, with "hidden scares" each creaking step.
In addition, the traditional hayride is completely redone; Fletcher was reluctant to describe the theme of the hayride – which typically stops at improvised sets in which a horror scene is acted out – but said to think of the new American frontier, circa 1809, and the wonderful lore that permeated literature at that time, including the work of Washington Irving of "Sleepy Hollow" fame.
Nightmare Mansion – no, not a tribute to the foreclosure epidemic – and Castle Morbid await visitors with an open house but a pretty twisted idea of hospitality.
Although the surprise element is essential at most Halloween seasonal attractions, part of its appeal undoubtedly is the weirdly comforting feeling that comes from the familiar – goofy laboratories, crypts with less-than-sedentary occupants, rocking chairs on autopilot.
Some are multi-dimensional, literally – including a Three-D crypt, which Fletcher described as "great eye candy," in which visitors don special spectacles that create an unreal, disorienting effect.Deathly distraction
As Witch's Woods enters its ninth season, Fletcher said he and his staff have learned a lot about what it takes to scare folks into having a good time. Essential is the element of surprise. The key? Distraction.
"The easiest way to scare someone is to put their attention on something else," said Fletcher. And, while distracted, you have them.
Another insight: professional sets, costumes and makeup make the difference in creating something that is both attractively campy and capable of suspension of disbelief. "When we started we were just using robes and masks. Now, we have artists doing professional airbrushing," said Fletcher, who said enlisting the talents of Boneyard Productions has helped upgrade the quality.
For the ski area, it has been a way to keep profits flowing when it isn't snowing, as many ski parks find alternative uses for their property when ski revenues sometimes go downhill.
By all accounts, Witch's Woods has worked the hoped-for magic, last year, 35,000 scare-seekers came, slightly down from the previous year because, as Fletcher described it, "one of our four Boston sports teams, who shall remain nameless." He noted the ski area's restaurant and bar, The Outlook, was by contrast at capacity as breathless game watchers swarmed the television.
But, for the popularity of Halloween attractions, some have drawn their share of complaints, mostly about waiting in line in the cold to board the hayride. Fletcher said, as Halloween approaches, the lines and the wait do get longer.
For those who don't like long waits, he suggested going on nights that are less well attended, such as Sunday nights. "The wait might be 10 to 15 minutes, maximum. Toward the end (of the month) you might be waiting an hour."
Overall, Fletcher said there have never been any serious issues, although emotions can run high at such events; police details are always on hand, and staff do not touch the patrons – and patrons likewise are asked to be respectful and not touch or confront the staff.
A cast of about 150 – mostly residents of area communities, and few with professional acting backgrounds – take on alter egos as clawing clowns, overactive corpses and voluptuous vampires.
Brian Brandt, of Derry, N.H., co-director of Witch's Woods, has been involved sine the beginning, and has done pretty much everything, including portraying a deranged chainsaw wielder.
"I love to set up. The people we work with are always outstanding. Trying to put on a live show is kind of a feat and a challenge in and of itself."What scares people the most?
"We have a wealth of scary clowns…we have a lot of people who are absolutely terrified of clowns."
Brandon Kelley, 22, of Fitchburg, who variously helps build and paint sets and has done stints as a zombie, said visitors' reactions can range from hysterical shrieks to delight, including spontaneous dancing and singing Michael Jackson's "Thriller,'' evoking the song's video, with its famous zombie choreography.
Kelley, who has a theater background and who has also worked on cruise boats as a pirate among other entertainment jobs, said of working at Witch's Woods: "I have learned how to deal with crowds and people, more than if I had only experience on stage….it's fun to be right there."
Yes, for these "working stiffs," job satisfaction is in evidence.
Brandt admits; "To this day, I can't get enough of the screams. It's just fulfilling. Either I'm sick and twisted, or it's all part of the job."
If you go
Witch's Woods is located at Nashoba Valley Ski Area, 79 Powers Road, Westford. Open every night from Thursday, Oct. 2 through Saturday, Nov. 1 at 6:30 p.m.
Tickets are $25 for adults and $23 for children under 12. Those who want to secure their scare early, advance ticket sales for opening weekend are $15 by reserving online. Group rates are available for clans of 15 or more. For more information, please visit www.witchswoods.com.

So we throw in a new virtue right? Does that mean a character has TWO weaknesses? Or do we get additional points to spend on the virtue?
from reading Wicked Words issue 2, I think I figured out that when you take on a veiled virtue, you end up losing out on one of the main virtues. It becomes a weakness. Any virtue you don't take is considered a weakness.

Seventy percent of my time as a session guitarist is spent soloing and/or coming up with parts.
These can also be considered mini solos or licks. Or, as we call them from a songwriting POV, hooks. A memorable little snippet that repeats through the song. Or maybe just a part to wake listeners up during the second verse.
Now, how do I come up with something out of nothing? I rarely get to hear the song before I am called to play on it. I like that word "play." That's what I am doing. Playing around with various ideas. No one expects instant magic, but it has happened. Sometimes it's quick and easy, and sometimes it's like pulling teeth. You just never know. So how do I do it? Where do the ideas come from?
One word: Experience.
Let's remember one thing right off the bat. When a person is hired to play, they are usually hired because the person who did the hiring has heard them play already. There is usually a sense of confidence. When these jobs come in the mail, I try to send back several solos and parts. Give more than is asked of me. Now how do I do it.
There are several tried-and true-methods I call upon to get me started. Here's a brief list of my top 10 life savers!
01. I SING THE SOLO FIRST. We guitarists use our hands. We fall into patterns. Now sometimes that's a good thing. But if you want to be original, sing it. It takes away your finger patterns and muscle memory and forces you into uncharted territory and new licks.
02. DECIDE ON A RHYTHM PATTERN. Begin with something slow and think whole notes, then move on to 8th notes. Change the feel and work with triplets. End on 16th notes or faster. Create a build. Tension. Or just stick to a main pattern and keep coming back to it.
03. USE LIMITATIONS. Decide to only use one string for the entire solo. It will force you to phrase and think differently. Or limit the notes by NOT ever playing a root note. Limitations are freeing!
04. USE CHORDS INSTEAD. Who says a solo has to be made of notes? Play a solo using a chord pattern played rhythmically or even insanely and dig the craziness. Or if it's a slow tune, enjoy the beauty of chord on chord playing. Or use these as arpeggios. I often think of chord on chord when soloing.
05. EMULATE THE PHRASING OF ANOTHER INSTRUMENT. What would a sax sound like? How would a sax player solo? Or violin? Or piano? Or drums! Or spoken voice?
06. USE SILENCE. Maybe you shouldn't even play a solo. Or maybe it should be so minimal that you can barely call it playing. But if that's what the song needs, put your ego aside and let it be. I have done this numerous times. And not due to laziness; due to its being what is appropriate for the song.
07. GO BACK TO YOUR ROOTS. Pick a hero. Someone you emulated and dreamed of being when you first started playing. You can never fail. (Unless you are playing on a rockabilly song and your roots are Yngwie Neo-classical. Then, skip this step ... forever!
08. USE COMEDY. Why not try something you've never done before? Do the most ridiculous solo. Play faster and sloppier than ever. Make a statement. It may just work in the right situation. Or play another song melody. Or play something that sounds like a whale. Use only the low strings as high on the neck as you can! Just the act may free your mind.
09. USE DISSONANCE. Try playing using dissonance as opposed to a melodic solo. Use as many outside tones and unrelated notes as possible. There is an ugliness/beauty in this type of playing, and once mastered it can be a friend. By making the solo sound uncomfortable, you can then shift into melodicism and make the notes sing. The dark-to-light shift does magic.
10. MAKE A MOVIE. Imagine you are making a movie instead of a solo. Start on a wide shot. Maybe long flowing notes. Then add a motif as a character. Repeat this motif and think about playing it over the wide shot long notes. Add details to the story by developing the line with more notes and rhythms. It's still just a solo, but in your mind you are making a movie.
I hope these concepts help you the next time you are stuck for an idea on what to play.
I'm a session guitarist from New York, now living in Connecticut. I started playing at age 6, sight reading right off the bat. That's how I was taught, so I just believed everyone started that way! I could pretty much sight read anything within a few years, and that aided me in becoming a session guy later in life. I took lessons from anyone I could and was fortunate enough to have some wonderful instructors, including John Scofield, Joe Pass and Alan DeMausse. I've played many jingle sessions, and even now I not only play them but have written a few. I've "ghosted" for a few people that shall remain nameless, but they get the credit and I got the money! I've played sessions in every style, from pop to jazz.

Had nothing better to do, I used the acoustic Anchortape version. Please correct any mistake I may have made. Enjoy.

Matterhorn by Jason Lytle.
Normal tuning, no capo.
10 o'clock and her life quit going
Wasn't long till it started snowing
In the end saw the wind really blowing around
Lone bird on a perch nearby
Saw something in her common tide
Then shivered just to bid as she aimed towards the sky
Get down that Matterhorn
What's wrong with the safe and warm
Em ----------------------------------A
What's wrong with the book and the at night
A pie and a friendless friend
Tears frozen upon descent
Get down that Matterhorn again
There's a handwritten note he wrote
In the pocket of a cold down coat
On the body of the one who's left our world
And in the note there's a love professed
And some apology about some mess
But she won't be reading these words too soon
Get down that Matterhorn
What's wrong with the safe and warm
What's wrong with the book and the at night
Up high in the frightened sky
What's wrong with the quiet night
Get down that Matterhorn again

How to use and change the Settings of the Product:

It´s done when you see "All configurations loaded. Tipjar ready!" in your Chat.
3. First let´s customize your Tipjar now. Right click the Tipjar and click "edit".
4. Go to the content tab.
5. There you will find the tipjarscript and the tipjarconfig
6. Make a copy of the "tipjarconfig" notecard and take it to your Inventory, just so that you have a Backup

Just duplicate your Tipjar if you need more then one in your Club or Location. As you made already Settings,
the Duplicates will now have the same Settings.
You can also save your tipjarconfig in your Inventory after finishing your Settings. That is the way you can put
it back to a new rezzed Tipjar in case you did deleted every Tipjar from your Land. Good because you dont have
to make these Settings again. But be sure that you only have one tipjarconfig in your Object.
Q: The Tipjar is asking for Permission Debit. What the heck is going on? Can I trust you?
A: Yes, in fact you can trust me. Permission Debit is always needed in Second Life when a Script
want to take money from agent's account. In the Case of Tipjar´s it is usualy so that your
Staff is logging into the Tipjar but you are the Owner of the Tipjar. If now someone (A Donator)
pays your Staff, the Money first goes through your Avatar and then to the Person who is logged
in to your Tipjar. So basicly the Script just ask you to get permission for this Function and to forward it
to your Staff or anyone who logged into your Tipjar. Anyway be careful in Second Life. Only give permission
if you trust the Creator of the Script you got.
FAQ will be extended in case many Customers ask similar or same Questions about one Topic

Cool Minimal Music at United Beats – *CODE 415*
Today I am arrived at the United Beats – Code 415 Club in Second Life. I must say I am anyway a great fan of Minimal, House and Electro Music. So I did arrived at a Location where I feel pretty good. There was a DJ called Cyberstar and he really did groove the crowd. If you also like this kind of underground Music then you defenetly should take a look at this Location. They played a lot of "deep stuff" there. No mainstream. I often visit those Clubs in Second Life if I have enough time and I am pretty sure I was there already before. I think they did do some changes on the Location. I defenetly can remind Code 415 but the Club Enviroment changed I guess. All the Peoples I did meet there was pretty crazy. They had absolut cool costumes. Pretty Sci-Fi and modern. Well thats it.. Its a Tech-Scene so dont wonder. So my suggestion goes to Code 415. Check that Club out.

SYCAMORE, Ill. (AP) — The murder of a 7-year-old Illinois girl that haunted the nation more than 50 years ago went to trial Monday, starting with a prosecutor accusing the defendant of discarding the body like "a piece of garbage."
Jack McCullough, 72 and a former Washington state police officer, has pleaded not guilty to the 1957 kidnapping and slaying of Maria Ridulph, of Sycamore. It's one of the oldest cold-case murders brought to trial in the United States.
Maria's friend, Kathy Sigman, told authorities that a young man calling himself "Johnny" had approached them while they were playing outside on Dec. 3, 1957, and offered to give the girls piggyback rides. Sigman left to get mittens and when she returned, Maria and the man were gone.
Prosecutors say McCullough, whose name was John Tessier in the 1950s, was "Johnny."
"This ordinary night would end in horror," said DeKalb County State's Attorney Clay Campbell. "It would end with this defendant dumping her body in the cold, dark woods like a piece of garbage."
Ridulph's abduction captured national attention, and even then-President Dwight Eisenhower asked to be kept up-to-date. Her badly decomposed body was found months later 120 miles away from Sycamore.
Forensics examinations indicate that Ridulph was stabbed at least three times in the throat and the chest, prosecutors said Monday.
The slain girl's friend, now in her 60s, is expected to be called to the stand to identify McCullough, who was arrested last year in Seattle and brought to Illinois.
"The defendant thought he could get away with it," Campbell said Monday. "What he couldn't count on was that Kathy Sigman could never forget his face."
Public defender Thomas McCulloch says there's no evidence linking his client to the crime.
"Jack McCullough did not commit this murder," he said. "The reality is it has not been solved by charging Jack McCullough."
The girl's older brother, Charles Ridulph, was the first witness for prosecutors Monday, describing his younger sister as a smart and outgoing girl.
The defense opted for a bench trial, meaning that the judge rather than a jury will assess the evidence and decide on a verdict.
McCullough lived a few block from the Ridulph family home and was on an early list of suspects. But he had an alibi, saying that on the day the girl vanished, he traveled to Chicago to get a medical exam before enlisting in the Air Force.
He later moved out of the area, served in the Armed Forces and ultimately worked as a police officer in Washington and a security guard at a retirement home — where he was arrested on July 1, 2011.
Investigators reopened the case several years ago, after McCullough's former girlfriend told them she found his unused train ticket from Rockford to Chicago from Dec. 3, 1957, the day Maria vanished.

There are many people in our area who love birds. They keep feeders full; they deter cats from damaging nestlings; they build birdhouses. There are only a few, though, who do all this plus take the trouble to get involved organizationally at the state and national level to protect birds. There are fewer still with a history of this dedication that goes back almost forty years.
Charles Bliss is such a man. Bliss' special interest is bluebirds.
He's been a resident of Asheboro for a total of 54 years, during which time he raised a family and completed a career with General Electric, later Black & Decker, in quality control. His wife, Maria, is an ordained minister in the Methodist Church. She was director of Randolph County Elections for a number of years. Recently she has served as Regional Consolidated Services board president with a particular interest in the Head Start Program. The Blisses are fully invested in the life of Asheboro and Randolph County.
While he doesn't know why he started, Bliss began building bluebird boxes in 1978. One of his first projects was to build a bluebird trail of seven boxes around the back of the lake at Asheboro Country Club, which was then a nine-hole course. He placed the boxes at a 5-foot level, the recommended 150 yards apart. The 1.5-inch openings on the faces of the boxes were oriented to catch the morning sun but not the day's full heat.
And then he tended them.
Monitoring the boxes is a prime duty of those interested in nurturing bluebirds. Other species of birds like the boxes, too, as well as the occasional snake. When Bliss first checked his trail for nests, he found three bluebirds, one sparrow, two titmouse nests and the seventh, he couldn't identify. Upon opening that box, a mother flying squirrel climbed down the tree and up his pants leg.
"I don't know what dance I did, but it was rather frantic," he recalls.
Sialia sialis is the Eastern Bluebird, the species most common around here. Males and females have similar coloration, but the male is a little brighter. The male finds a nesting site and then displays and sings to attract a female. If a female accepts his offer, they mate, she builds the nest and incubates the eggs. It is estimated in the 1970s and '80s that the population of the Eastern Bluebird had declined by as much as 90 percent due to the use of pesticides such as DDT and loss of habitat. Even something as simple as the popularity of the steel fence post, rather than wood, had a disastrous effect.
These were concerns expressed in Rachel Carson's "Silent Spring." Because of people like Bliss, bluebird population numbers have risen and are not in danger now of extinction, but the species will always need human assistance.
Bliss was interested enough to attend a quarterly board meeting of the N.C. Bluebird Society in Southern Pines. There he was asked to arrange the site for the annual meeting at the N.C. Zoo.
At that meeting in the new Stedman Building, he, out of the blue, was nominated to be their next president. Bliss accepted because there were no other candidates. Over the years he also served as vice president, treasurer and reporter for the annual bluebird survey. This is a tallying of information from about one hundred members citing such information as when the first egg was laid, the number of eggs, the number hatched, the number fledged, the number of boxes and what predators had given trouble. This information was sent to the national tabulation center in Utica, New York.
Other state level meetings took place at Wake Forest, Fayetteville and Gastonia. One meeting took place in Bailey, at Jack Finch's Homes for Bluebirds and Finch Blueberry Nursery operations. Jack was well known nationally as Mr. Bluebird of North America. His son, Dan, is a potter who has visited Asheboro many times while attending the North Carolina Potters Conference or as a director of the North Carolina Pottery Center in Seagrove.
The North American Bluebird Society was founded in 1978 by Dr. Lawrence Zeleny, about the time Bliss' interest began. Bliss started attending national meetings. His first was in Hamilton, Canada. In 1998 he attended a four-day national meeting in Montana. The 2013 meeting was in Aiken, South Carolina. At these gatherings, nesting box designs are discussed and hints for better conservation results are shared. People tell how they deal with predators, both other bird species and neighborhood cats. Some of the bird people, Bliss reports, are rather rough on the cat people.
Bluebird people are always trying new things. Bliss says that it doesn't really matter what color bluebird houses are. One year he experimented by painting 30 boxes in six different colors. The main proviso, according to bluebird authorities, is that the color is not so dark as to create heat in the interior.
There are several good designs for bluebird houses. Bliss favors the 4-by-4-inch square bottom style, with a hinged top. Some houses have a hinged side for monitoring, but the babies sometimes fall out of those. There is also the Peterson style box which comes down to a v-shaped bottom. This shape may be helpful to the female nest builders in that there is not so much bottom to fill.
A basic set of plans can be had online from ncbluebird.org (the North Carolina Bluebird Society) or nabluebirdsociety.org.
Both sites offer information about placing the boxes and on feeding as well as updates on current legislation and the success of the effort to preserve this challenged species.
It is not just "Over the Rainbow" where bluebirds fly; it is in your back yard. Anyone can help bluebirds by installing nesting sites and monitoring them or by planting berry-producing plants for food. Everyone can help by telling others about their plight.
