Nara Traditional Crafts (Part 2)
Nara Traditional Crafts (Part 2)
As I mentioned in the first blog, Nara was the first place in Japan to receive new ideas from overseas countries as it was in the centre of trade between Japan and the Silk Road. Some of the best craftsmen came to Nara from China's Tang Dynasty and Korea's Baekje Kingdom. And with the spread of Buddhism there were many different innovations that spurred from there like the cloth that the priests' used as garments to the brushes used for calligraphy and also the paper and ink that were used for copying the sutras

Narazarashi which are woven hemp cloth were used as robes for monks' and as an under layer for a soldiers' armour during the Nara period. They are smooth and absorbent but are still a breathable cloth which was perfect for people during the hot summer days.
The production of narazarashi boomed during the Edo period and many fabric mills were built in Nara during this time. Yu Nakagawa was one of these fabric mills that was built during this time. At the Naramachi store, you can actually see the old spinning wheels and looms. And if you make a reservation at Yu Nakagawa prior to when you arrive you can even experience making some fabric.

Akahada pottery is a distinctive pottery and it is named after the clay of Mount Akahada. The clay from Mount Akahada is filled with iron which is where it gets its colour from. This pottery is a key fold art in this area and it has been documented since 1573. The pottery itself has a very simple style with just a cream glaze painted on top and a red slip. This Akahada pottery is used in traditional tea ceremonies and is also used in fashionable restaurants. If you go to the Nara Craft Museum you can get some of these pieces at the souvenir shop.
Monks who used to practice Shugendo up in the mountains often used sword. And the family that supplied them with these swords is the Gassan family. The monks often used these swords to protect themselves from wild animals and sometimes bandits as well.
(source: http://www.samurai-nippon.net/SHOP/V-1662.html)
The Gassan family started out making swords in the Yamagata prefecture but they eventually moved to Sakurai in Nara. Sadatoshi Gassan is the current master and he gives the blades of the sword a pattern called ayasugi. This pattern gives the sword a fine texture much like woodgrain.

Chasen, also known as Tea whisks, are made from one piece of bamboo and it is finely cut into a whisk. It is an absolute essential in the tea making process as it is the chasen that makes the tea light and frothy. The Takayama bamboo has been supplying the chasen industry all throughout Japan for over 500 years. This area also has lots of traditional workshops that are open to the public so if you are interested you can definitely look more into this.
Tanimura san is the 20th generation chasen maker and he supplies tea masters from all over the country with some of his finely handmade tea whisks. Tanimura san has his own studio where he teaches about chasen. And if you would like to have an English speaking person at the workshop if you give prior notice a translator will be there.
If you go to the Nara Craft Museum you can learn all about the traditional crafts from the area. A lot of these crafts displayed here date back all the way to the Nara period.

ABOUT space 27
Open in November 2015 in Quarry Bay, Hong Kong, Space 27 aims to become one of the key creative hubs and education platform on design, art and culture in Hong Kong and Asia, through fostering communication and exchange among creative practitioners and enthusiasts.
Situated at the 10th floor inside a 1960s industrial building formerly the home of many local printing houses, Space 27 is a generous space of 7,000 sq ft with two separate exhibition spaces and an outdoor terrace, ideal for exhibitions, workshop and private events for 20 up to 250 people.
Stripping back to express the beam structures of the building, Space 27 is keeping the industrial essence of the building. Raw materials such as black painted steel, poured concrete floors and plywood walls used in its interior design strengthen this concept. The white painted walls also reflect the natural light that filters in from the Yukimishouji-inspired sliding doors. This Asian touch brings an added character and uniqueness which signifies our design aesthetics. The large outdoor terrace, spanning the full length of the back facade, is complemented with exquisite furniture and lush planting that creates a small oasis in the heart of the industrial neighbourhood.

Classic Desk Lamp by Carwardine
The Original 1227 desk lamp from the English tradition company Anglepoise - developed in 1935 by the designer and automotive engineer George Carwardine – still sets the standard for many other table lamps. The lamp equally features a timeless, classic design, as well as a selection of high-quality materials and a large flexibility regarding the light direction.
Stability and Stable Chrome Fittings
The gloss-lacquered shade and the arms, consisting of light weight aluminium, are connected by stable, long-lasting chrome fittings. In turn, the cast iron base with steel cover ensures perfect stability. The table lamp is completed by a quality textile cable and thus becomes a coherent lighting.
Great Flexibility and Adjustable in Height
According to use does the type 1227 desk lamp allow to be precisely adapted in height, thanks to the custom-designed tension spring technology. In addition, the flexible shade allows to be turned in the desired direction. This way, the lamp adapts to any situation - whether for reading on the sofa, as a nightstand lamp next to the bed or as a lamp in the domestic and commercial interiors.
With this classic you put a highlight in the living and working area, which is characterised by a subtle retro aesthetic and at the same time modern and contemporary design. The adaptable Original 1227 desk lamp today is part of a varied collection and is available in various colours.

Two Alabama residents recently received sentences of more than 25 years in prison each, and are ordered to pay $2.8 million in restitution to the IRS, for operating an identity fraud ring over a period of several years.
"Veronica Dale and Alchico Grant were indicted in December 2010," writes Becker's Hospital Review's Molly Gamble. "In fall 2011, Mr. Grant pleaded guilty to a total of five charges from both indictments, including conspiracy, wire fraud and aggravated identity theft. Ms. Dale pleaded guilty to a total of seven charges from both indictments, including conspiracy, filing false claims, wire fraud and aggravated identity theft."
"According to indictments, plea agreements and other court documents, the defendants were part of a scheme that involved fraudulently obtaining tax refunds by filing false tax returns using stolen identities," The Birmingham News reports. "The scheme began in 2009 and continued through 2010, authorities say. Dale admitted that she filed more than 500 fraudulent returns that sought at least $3.7 million in tax refunds. These returns were filed using the names of Medicaid beneficiaries, whose personal information Dale obtained while earlier employed by a company that serviced Medicaid programs."
"The Justice Department remains committed to protecting Americans from thieves who would steal their identities and use them to commit refund fraud," Assistant Attorney General Kathryn Keneally of the Justice Department's Tax Division said in a statement. "Those who commit stolen identity refund fraud will be punished to the full extent of the law."

for the unexpected season
I see you, my dear friend in an unexpected season.
Maybe you're single longer than you ever anticipated.
Maybe your marriage is much harder than you planned for.
Maybe you didn't know you'd be disappointed month after month, finding out once again that pregnancy has eluded you.
Maybe you didn't get what you hoped you'd always get, and now you don't know how you're supposed to live without it.
Maybe someone close to you has gone too quickly, and the pain you bear each day only intensifies how little you expected life to go the way it has.
Oh my friend, my heart aches with you. I listen to your bravery as you share these tender places with me. As you do the near impossible work of putting crushed dreams, disappointed hopes, and unwanted pain into words. You stop, your words screeching to a halt as you choke up and look away. You hope to gather yourself at the realization of how deep you feel this ache.
You've walked through seasons where your schedule was fuller, and these desires drifted to the back of your mind as you busied yourself. You've tried the route of numbing yourself with activity and entertainment. You've engaged both positive thinking and cynicism, each hardening you with a bitterness that seeps into every area of your life. But when you're alone, when you can't sleep, when you get really quiet, the power of these desires threatens to overwhelm you and take you captive.
You're not sure how to go about your normal life carrying around this painful desire. Everywhere you look, you have to remember that your life is not what you hoped it would be. Engagement parties. Pregnancy announcements. Couples' smiling on dates. Weekends. Target. Church. People without intending digging their fingers into wounds too sensitive for light conversation. Why are you still single? Why doesn't your spouse join you? How long are you two waiting to have kids?
There's only so many times you can answer these God-questions before you burst.
But questions from the outside aren't nearly as haunting as the ones that arise from within. Why does God seem to love her more than me? Why can't I have this one thing? Why would God keep this from me? What's wrong with me?
Temptation grows thick, and you start to view yourself through the lens of your lack. Your identity forms around a hollow hope, and you cave into the lies that say you must not deserve this good thing, that your God is holding out on you, that your life will never be full. Not only are you left empty, but your loneliness and shame isolate you with a profound sense of unworthiness.
And perhaps the most agonizing part of all is when you come before God. The exposure of your heart before Him feels volatile, and if you find any courage to form words, you sink deeper into your helpless state. You bend into the growing distance between your God and yourself, preferring the silence over the words you never wished to say.
Oh friend, my heart aches. Though I may not know the degree of your suffering, I pray you'll allow me the privilege of ministering to you. Though I may even have what you want, I pray you don't see me as "other" than you. I pray that you'd receive me as your sister, enduring my own road marked with particular suffering to place me in fellowship with Jesus.
And if you feel that even the tiniest glimpse of you has been seen through the outpouring of these words, know that my gaze is one of compassion. One of longing to be let in to the place you feel outcasted. That I may serve you and love you the best way I know how—as a vessel of the ministry of Jesus.
I pray you'll acknowledge how desperate you really are for healing and hope, and that the walls of skepticism and envy and hardness will crumble. That you'll look up one more time from the darkness and see a dawn of light from the Word of God.
This is a collection of Scriptures that I believe will transform and reshape you in your unexpected season. That will be the avenue through which you receive the ministry of God Himself.
His ministry is one that brings from prison those who sit in darkness. Who deals tenderly with even the weakest of faiths. Who absorbs the cost of our sin against Him that we might know for certain that we are honored in His sight, loved beyond measure (Isaiah 42-43).
Because when we receive the ministry of Christ, He makes room for us to re-root our identity deep in Him, the safest place to endure any unexpected season we could ever face.

Our Show Cars
We have 2 very special cars on hand that we truly consider "Show Cars". The first, belongs to RROC member Sam Bornholdt. The beautiful automobile is a Rolls Royce Silver Cloud III (LSHS235) & was shown for judging at the 2012 RROC National Meet. A few months prior to the National Meet, Sam had come to Coachbuilt to have his Silver Cloud III tweaked for judging. With Sam's patience & Jim's guidance, the Cloud slowly became show-ready. After a careful transport to the meet in Louisville, KY., & with final preparations, the car, against some very serious competition, took 1st place. Shortly after the National Meet, the Silver Cloud was put on display at the 30th annual Arthritis Auto Show in Dublin, OH on July 7, 2012. There, the Silver Cloud won "Best In Show" title. On September 16, 2012, Sam, his wife Beverly, along with Jim & Donna, entered the car in the Dayton Concours d'Elegance show. Despite some very stiff competition, Sam's car won First In Class. Sam, went ahead to show the car at the 2013 RROC National Meet in San Antonio, TX. Again, the Cloud brought home another award. At the 2014 RROC National Meet held in beautiful Seven Springs Resort in Seven Springs, PA., Sam's car brought home yet another award. The car is currently being offered for sale & is at Coachbuilt on display. It is definitely worth a look, if you're in the area. For additional prices & pricing, click on "1964 Rolls Royce Silver Cloud III" above.
The second show car, often in our showroom is a 1936 Rolls Royce. GRM7 was delivered by Rolls Royce to Coachbuilder Gurney Nutting in July of 1936. Once completed, it was delivered to a Lieutenant Colonel in the Royal West Kent Regiment, who later sold it to a physician in the London area, who possessed a petrol permit, presumably to allow him to make medical calls throughout the London area during the war. After the war, and having survived relentless bombing, the car changed hands a few times, and was eventually purchased & transported to the US. At some point, Nelson Rockefeller bought the car & it later reached the hands of C. Fred Brown, a car enthusiast based in Arizona & Ohio. The last, & current owner, is Coachbuilt owner James Metheney. Jim did a little 'fine tuning' to bring the car to near original condition. The only time, in recent history that this car has been shown, was at the Arthritis Foundation show in Dublin, OH., where it won top prize, in the Rolls Royce arena.
The photos below show Sam's car at the National Meet in Louisville. Sam is surrounded by his wife, Beverly, and Jim & Donna Metheney. Below that, is Jim's 1936 Rolls Royce.
Show cars winning 1st place at RROC National Meet events that have been restored by Coachbuilt in prior years have been:
Bob Paisley's 1953 Silver Wraith Hooper Limousine, Sam Bornholdt's 1964 Silver Cloud III, & Jim Metheney's 1937 25-30 four door sedan, GWN51, coachwork by Thrupp & Maberly.

Entries in zoos (20)
Photo 188/365
Zzzzzz zoo
We really enjoy going to the zoo. I know it's a controversial thing, zoos, and I can see both sides of that argument, but since they're here, and while they're here, we like to take advantage of seeing animals we would never otherwise have the good fortune to see. Still, while I love going to zoos, I'm not fond of the crowds, the heat if it's summer, or the crowds, or definitely, definitely the crowds. There's something about zoo going that brings out the worst in people. I swear the idea of calmly and patiently waiting in lines, a thing we all supposedly learned about in kindergarten, goes out the proverbial window faster than the proverbial baby in bath water. And since the jostling, pushing, constant people in the way, and overall monotony of voices drives me batty after a time, I can only imagine what it's like for the animals, who from their small spaces must put up with, day in and day out, the human cacophony that accompanies any crowd.
But the work day is blessedly short for your average zoo animal, and although I never put much thought into zoo after hours before this week, I can now say with utmost certainty that happy hour is a thing at the zoo. Think of it this way: once all that cacophony, all that humanness, walks out the front gate, all panda-monium breaks loose.
They're gone! the animals are thinking, Let's get our party hats on!
The minute the after hours hush falls over the zoo, the animals come alive. Whatever animal you couldn't find because it was hiding behind the rock is now out cavorting with whatever enrichment device was just now placed in their enclosure by the equally relieved keeper. It's better than happy hour beer, it's happy hour frozen fish, or crackers in a box, or grubs in a ball. This is the life.
And you know what else? All the animals that don't officially live at the zoo, all the free-loading rabbits, ground hogs, geese, and ducks also come out for the fun. And everyone's in such a good mood, the rabbits don't even think of taunting the wolves, who are too busy galloping all over the enclosure now that nobody can see them to give a hoot anyway.
Yes, zoo closing time is just like closing time anywhere else, and I know this because now I've seen it thanks to a summer time homeschooling field trip. Just as everyone else was skipping out the front gate, about twenty of us were sneaking in (not really, because we were there by invitation) to take part in the happy hour festivities. We toured the grounds, we made enrichment activities, we saw (as best we could) animals playing after dark, and we slept with the fishes in the zoo aquarium, the sharks, rays, and sea turtles slowly floating by all night long. Then the next morning, functioning on only as much sleep as we'd been able to muster, we were given another tour of the zoo before the front gates opened and we were set loose with all the other zoo goers.
Of course, by then we'd been privilege to the zoo as it is in its off time, and the open hours were less impressive, but we did get to feed the giraffes.
Camping 2014
There are few places I love as much as my home state. It has its ups and downs, and of course there are lots of great places to visit in the country and the wider world, but here we are surrounded by a simple, quiet, understated beauty that cannot be matched. Water, water everywhere; soft, white, sandy beaches; majestic trees. The wildlife is plentiful and mainly friendly (as our new neighbors who came from Alabama like to put it, there really isn't much here that can kill you). Brilliant sun in the summers, sparkling snow, when we're lucky, in the winters. The Pure Michigan campaign, now in its eighth year, really nailed it on the head. I'm sure there are plenty of people itching to get out of dodge, but we truly love our home, and we do our best every year—especially every summer—to take advantage of the beauty around us, and not take it for granted.
Last weekend was our annual camping trip with our good friends who have a daughter exactly two days older than Calvin. We started this tradition when the kiddos were just 3. That first year we packed up all our gear (which thankfully was limited at the time) and drove to a site less than an hour away, figuring that if the trip was a complete bust we could still make it home in time for some decent sleep. But it was a big hit—really big—and in the years since we've upped our game to a five hour drive and four nights away.
We feel like regulars now at our favorite campground. This is drive up camping (not like our backpacking trip last year), and our favorite two sites have a lake view and easy access to the beach, the water pump, and the bathroom without being right in the middle of camp traffic. They also come with a resident Thirteen Lined Ground Squirrel. During the day we watch him scurry around, scoping out our contributions to his layout, at dusk we sit around the campfire waiting for the bats emerge, and in the cool mornings we lean back in our chairs and sip hot coffee while listening to the loons.
In all these years, this was our first trip that was less than ideal weather-wise. We arrived Friday afternoon, a day ahead of our companions, and enjoyed a beautiful evening on the lake after setting up camp. The rain storms held off until about four in the morning, when wind, thunder, and a driving rain woke us in the hours before dawn. Or the wake up call might have been the campers in the tent behind us who were screaming, and giggling, at finding themselves in a not-so-weather-proof tent.
By the time we got up in the morning the rain had passed, leaving cool, damp air and a chilly wind behind. While our neighbors went about stuffing all their possessions into garbage bags in preparation for a trip to the laundromat, we had coffee and cereal and planned a morning hike. Jon discovered a point labeled Mt. Nebo on the trail map, and that's where we headed because...well...because Mt. Nebo. The four mile hike was wonderful. Possibly my favorite part of the whole trip. We found birds, toads, frogs, bugs, and mosquitoes, and the cooler air was perfect for the exercise. Back at camp we fired up the stove for a sausage and pancakes lunch and watched the sun burn off the remaining mist and clouds. By the time our friends arrived the air was warm enough to play a bit on the beach before assembling chicken fajita foil packets to cook around the fire.
Our second night was much quieter, and our second full day more eventful, our friends having arrived. Since it was still too chilly for swimming (a situation that remained in effect the whole trip), we instead went into town for putt putt golf, ice cream, and sweat shirt shopping (the funny thing about kids is that they outgrow their warm clothes every year). Back at camp—sand play on a sunny beach followed by dinner. One of the ways that I can tell we've improved our camping skills over the years is our culinary prowess at the campfire. Dinner number two for us was corn and steak.
On Monday we ate cold breakfasts, packed lunches, and headed over the bridge into the U.P. to see the Soo Locks up close. We were fortunate enough to see an osprey, too, and on the way home we stopped at Castle Rock—our tourist trap for the year. Back at camp it was still too chilly for the beach, so we spent more time with ice cream in town and outfit each of us with new shirts (why should the kids have all the fun!) before heading back. When we got back our tent neighbors were packing up and heading out. The forecast was promising heavy rain and storms in the middle of the night and on into the next morning. Since it was our last night, we decided to the same—the air wasn't getting any warmer, and the idea of having to pack up in a pouring rain was less than desirable. So we started a fire with our remaining wood and packed up while the kids played, then ate one final meal and roasted one final dessert. And would you believe it, the rain started just as we climbed into our cars to head south.
So we spent our final night of the trip in a Holiday Inn Express, and our final morning swimming in their pool instead of the lake, but at least we got some swimming in.
And because we had extra time on our final day—no packing up to do and we were already part way home—Jon and Calvin and I decided to make the most of our trip home and visit a zoo we'd never seen. Scattered storms blanketed most of the state, and we were driving in and out of rain the whole way, but when we got to Potter Park Zoo (in Lansing), the radar said we had about 20 minutes before the next storm hit. It's a small zoo, and we made a dash around all of the outdoor exhibits, then broke out our ponchos to go from building to building, taking in the indoor exhibits. It worked out perfectly, even if we were a little wet, but we'll have to go back sometime because we never did get to see the baby moose, our main reason for stopping.
Now we're home, and with rain still dotting the landscape in unpredictable patterns, all our camping gear is spread out in the garage, waiting for a dry enough day that we can set it up and clean it out well for the year. It's slowly dissipating, but it makes the garage and laundry room smell like camp—wood smoke and pine—making me already eager for next year.
Detroit Zoo Member Night, 2014
Scattered rain didn't stop us. Even driving through a wild thunderstorm with nearly zero visibility on the road didn't keep us away. Member night at our favorite zoo means music and mayhem, free train rides, good food, and lots of extra activities to keep the animals entertained, and entertaining. It's something we'll look forward to every year now that Calvin has a shiftier summer bedtime.

(a Oar Great Grandfather's Time, big bulky pills were in generalu.se. Like the ''blunderbuss" of that decade they were- big and clumsy, but ineflec- tive. In thiscent- ury of enlightenment, we have Dr. Picrce's Pleasant Pel, lets, which cure all liver, stomach and bowel derangements in the most effective way. Assist Nature nTittle now and then, with a gentle, cleansing laxative, thereby removing offending matter from the stomach and bowels, toning up and invigorating the liver and quickening its tardy action, and you thereby remove the cause of a multitude of distressing diseases, such as headaches, indigestion, or dyspepsia, biliousness, pimples, blotches, eruptions, boils, constipation, piles, fistulxs and •maladies too numerous to mention.

Keep the shoulders well back and hoad erect, while if there is any tendency to stooping, wear shoulder braces as much as possible to. strengthen tho back.

The Cur loan Change Uncle J»ek Notei In Jiew Hampshire. "Why, hallo, boys!" said old Jack, genially, as Tornmie and Bobbie poked their heads through the window of his cabin. "Haven't Keen ye in s' long a time Td begun to think rd j list dreamed ye, an' 'at they hadn't never been no .such boys as you be. What's been keepirf ye away? Ben off travel', ch? Well, travelin' 's good business. It's the best way to learn jography I ever see. Ye go to a place and ye see it, an' then o' course ye know it's there, and if anj-oue asks ye where it is ye can tell 'cm, which ye mightn't if ye hadn't never went there an' knowed what yc was talkin'about. So I says travel- in' 's good business. What p'ticular feature o' the state o' nature have ye been lookin' at? The White mountains, eh? Well, well, well. I hain't seen the White mountains for goin' on thirty year. Wonderful they was risin' right up out o' the sea like they does, with the sea lions an' wallyrusscs ronrin' at the foot of'em! What's that? They don't rise up out o' the sea? Say, do you know you're a-talkin' to me? Me, who lias studied jography the way like I told ye, from travelin', tin' who knows what facts he does know well? Yc don't want to git too funny with me. What? White mountains arc in New Hampshire? Well, wliy said they warn't? I only MI id they rose up out o' the sea—• that's all J. said. J never said they warn't in New Hampshire, been/, that 'd be foolish, been?, they be, Havin' been there, 1 know. Ain't no sea nor no oceans lappin' the coast of New Hampshire for mountains to rise up out of? See here, boys—don't you — don't you rasporalu Old .lack. If yon talk that way to me 'bout the joge- raiihical formation o' this country I'll have to decide on nne o' two conclusions. If you say them White mountains don't rise up out o' the sea, either you ain't never been there, nnd sodon't know, or New Hampshire's moved. When I were In Now Hampshire she were bounded on the west by thel'acilic oct'iin, on the north by Uufliu's bay, on the south by l,akc,Ontnriur, an 1 on the east by—IM—by—I think they called it the rUeditranean sea. 0' course if they've gone an' changed it round I may be wrong, bat what's the use o' studyin' jography if they're goin' to make all them changes "thout iettin' people know 1 . 1 It's wicked. We spcuds time an' money gettin' eddicated, an" then they go an' upset it all inakin' changes." And the old man walked away, growling.

Somo of Tin-In roonlliir I!»bit.s nnd Co»- tuim-rt Woru by tho Wonion, . Corcan women, to the western eye, arc both hideous and ungainly, whereas tho men and young boys are often handsome and picturesque. There is neither grace nor elegance in the female dress, which in some respects resembles that of the Chinese, and consists oC a loose pair of trousers reaching to the ankle, tied round the waist with a thick cord, on the top of tliis i.s worn a short, petticoat reaching to the knees, and fitted to the shoul- | dcrs is a. yoke or shoulder-cape to which are attached long; loose sleeves. This costume is the ordinary dress of the working-woman; the coarse material is woven out of the fiber of the tall millet-stem, which sometimes grows to be eight or ton feet high; or more often the entire costume is 1 composed of a strong shirting. Both the women and '• thu men wear their hair in thickplai'.s; the former wrap their pigtails lightly round their heads, tho latter keep their long plaits hanging down nnlil they enjoy the dignified position of being engaged to be married, on which auspicious occasion the Corcan groom partly shaves his head and twists np his pigtail into a queer little top-knot and indulges his fancy in the latest and strangest variety of hats ever designed for man. Up to this time his head has been hatless. Co- reans are engaged to he married as early as their parents can arrange the business part of the transaction satisfactorily. In many ways they resemble the Chinese much morn than the Japanese. Unlike the Japanese, they keep their wearing apparel exquisitely clenn; they are constantly washing their entire wardrobe. With the Japanese the order of things is reversed; they indulge.in three or four baths a day, but even the garments worn next their skin are seldom, if ever, washed. Thoir method of ironing is more injurious to their clothes than even a steam laundry. They thump the clothes with wooden rollers and flat boards until a polish is produced.

CNN showcases Sheboygan basketball history
While in town for the PGA Championship, CNN Sports correspondents were allowed access to the armory to get a historical look at NBA basketball in Sheboygan.
The armory was home to the Sheboygan Red Skins, a basketball team that was in the NBA for one year in the early 1950s.
The story, with video from inside the armory, is out now on the CNN website: http://edition.cnn.com/2015/10/26/sport/sheboygan-red-skins-nba/

There has only been one No. 1 seed to lose in the divisional round the last five seasons (Cowboys in 2016 against Packers). In those nine games (excluding Cowboys loss), the No. 1 seeds have won by an average of 10 points. There were some blowouts that inflated those numbers but here are the winning margins; 4, 5, 7, 7, 7, 8, 14, 18, 21. In that same time span, No. 2 seeds are 6-4.
In this column, I will be breaking down all four games of the divisional round including several prop bets for each whether it's a player prop or game prop. Prop odds I used were on FanDuel Spoortsbook, Sportsbook.ag, and sportsinteraction.com.
These props are not only recommended bets but can also help you gauge a player while making your DFS lineups.Editor's Note: Get any full-season NFL Premium Pass for 50% off. Our exclusive In-Season Lineup Tools, Lineup Optimizer and over 150 days of Premium DFS Research. Sign Up Now!
Colts (+5.5) @ Chiefs | Saturday - 4:30 PM ET
I was all-in on the Colts last week and they didn't disappoint. They jumped out to an early 14-0 lead and never looked back. They let Luck take control early throwing for 191 yards and two touchdowns in the first half before they let Marlon Mack take the game over rushing for a career-high 148 yards. Indy's offense will be set up against the 27th ranked rush defense and 31st pass defense. KC struggles to get off the field on third down (25th in league). Indy thrived on keeping drives alone during the season ranking first and continued that last week in Houston converting nine of 13 third downs.
Indy's defense has been terrific of late, but there's no stopping KC's offense. They can be slowed, but not stopped. For that reason, I expect Indy to open the game running while they keep the ball out of Pat Mahomes's hands. Marlon Mack should have another big game.
While Andy Reid is the Marty Schottenheimer of this generation with early playoff exits, this team may be different with Mahomes at the helm. No defense can stop them. The least amount of points KC has scored this season has been 26. So if neither team can stop one another so that means we can expect a shootout.
There's something magical about Mahomes and he himself can get Andy Reid over the playoff-hump.
*There is a high chance it snows during the game. If so, that favors the Colts because they will control the line of scrimmage.*
Prediction: Chiefs 38 - Colts 34
Recommended Prop Bets: Travis Kelce over 6.5 receptions (-120). *He is too hard to stop. Marlon Mack over 74.5 rushing yards (-125)
Cowboys @ Rams (-7.0) | Saturday - 8:00 PM ET
The under-the-radar Rams "host" the Cowboys and I put host in quotations because this game will be 40-50 percent Cowboy fans. But will that make a difference? I don't believe so. The Rams went 13-3, but it feels like a bad 13-3 because of their back-to-back losses in Weeks 14 and 15. Those losses came to the Bears and Eagles, both playoff teams. Their only other loss was against the Saints. It's not like their 13 wins were flukey as they were third in point differential while the Cowboys were 14th.
If you're a regular reader of my column, you know I love third-down conversion percentage and scoring touchdowns in the red zone. The Rams were fifth in third-down conversions, Dallas was 11th. However, the Cowboys struggle in getting off the field ranking 23rd while the Rams were much better ranking 12th.
In terms of red zone touchdown scoring, Dallas was 27th, LA was 18th. On the defensive side, the Cowboys ranked ninth while the Rams were 14th.
The Cowboys should try and get Ezekiel Elliot going often and early not only to keep the Rams offense off the field, but also because he's their best chance to win. The Rams struggled to stop the run all season ranking 23rd. But as good as Elliot has been this season and as good as the Cowboys defense has played, the Rams have been waiting for this game since last year's home playoff loss to Atlanta. That game got those first playoff jitters out. Wade Phillips will have a stout defensive game-plan against the team he used to coach. I trust Sean McVay a ton more than Jason "The Clapper" Garrett. I also just think the Rams are being disrespected by the public – not Vegas – and will come out firing. Once the Rams get a 7-0 lead, that will be it because Dak Prescott can't play from behind.
Prediction: Rams 34 - Cowboys 21
Recommended Prop Bets: Jared Goff over 281.5 passing yards (-120). *I think he regains his early-season form. Dak Prescott under 21.5 completions (-120)
Chargers (+4.0) @ Patriots | Sunday - 1:00 PM ET
The Pats have played 22 home playoff game in the Brady/Belichick era and only four other times has the line been 4 or less. It makes sense why this line is low. The Chargers have not lost outside of Los Angeles this season (8-0), while the Patriots have looked mortal. New England has not lost at home this season though and are 18 points better in differential at home than on the road.
I the Pats to run, run, and run some more. They ran the ball on average 10 more times at home than on the road for 59 more yards. How many times have you seen the New England in big games slow things down and physically beat the other team. They'll go on those long methodical seven minute drives that result in touchdowns.
The Chargers have been so good this year, but how will they respond to brutal cold weather and another early 10 a.m. game on their body clocks? This team has beaten the Steelers, Chiefs, and Ravens all on the road in cold weather. I can't doubt Phillip Rivers with how he's played this season. Their defense has the pass rushers to get to Tom Brady, but until Brady/Belichick go down at home in a playoff game, I can't pick against them. But I will pick against them here in terms of the spread. The other reason the Pats pull this off is because the Chargers were inept in the red zone against the Ravens and you can't do that against New England.
Prediction: Patriots 24 - Chargers 21
Recommended Prop Bets: Sony Michel over 61.5 rushing yards (-120). *This may very well be James White, but I think Belichick goes with the more physical back. Keenan Allen under 70.5 receiving yards (-120). *Since his injury in Kansas City a month ago, his games have been: 5-58, 4-64, 4-37. His two career games against the Pats he's averaged three receptions (four targets) for 32 yards.
Eagles @ Saints (-8.0) | Sunday - 4:30 PM ET
Like the Rams, it feels like the public – not Vegas – is against the Saints who have been nothing short of dominant this season. They lost one game at home which came in Week 1. They've won games in blowout fashion and even beat teams scoring 12 points. One of those teams embarrassed were the Eagles who lost 48-7 in Week 11. Since then the Eagles are 6-1. They're on a miracle run with Nick Foles, but that's going to end Sunday.
Drew Brees and Sean Payton are 5-0 at home in the playoffs. They are a different team in that dome. They may not have the sexiest defense but they get pressure on the quarterback. They have the fifth-most sacks in the league. I keep remembering the Thanksgiving game against the Falcons when Matt Ryan was under constant pressure. The defense seemed to feed off the crowd. It's going to be much louder in that dome Saturday.
While the Eagles have a good pass rush, Drew Brees has been hit the least amount of times and sacked second least. He will have time to shred the porous secondary that Mitchell Trubisky threw for 303 yards on them and had big windows to throw into. The Saints have one too many weapons plus the random receiver you've never heard of.
Prediction: Saints 37 - Eagles 21
Recommended Prop Bets: Keith Kirkwood over 24.5 receiving yards (-112). *He'll be the random receiver that gets a deep ball or two. Alvin Kamara over 38.5 receiving yards (-120)
Best of luck and be sure to check in next week for my preview of Championship Sunday!

Acting prime minister Julie Bishop says a drop in the polls for the government is "not surprising", but insists there's light at the end of the tunnel in the citizenship saga.
With the coalition slipping further in the Newspoll behind Labor - 45-55 per cent - Malcolm Turnbull's lead as preferred prime minister over Labor's Bill Shorten dropped five points to 36 per cent.
The gap between the two leaders has narrowed to just two percentage points compared to eight points two weeks ago and 17 points at the end of August.
It is the closest Mr Shorten has ever been to regaining the lead he enjoyed over Tony Abbott as preferred prime minister.
The poll, published on Monday, also shows voters prefer Julie Bishop over Mr Turnbull - 40-27 per cent - as Liberal leader.
But coalition supporters still prefer Mr Turnbull.
"The polls are not surprising," Ms Bishop told reporters on the Queensland state election campaign trail.
Ms Bishop said a motion had been negotiated with Labor to force all senators to reveal family history and citizenship details by December 1.
A similar motion will go to the lower house on November 27.
As well, the government is fighting by-elections in the seats of New England and Bennelong, triggered by citizenship doubts over former deputy prime minister Barnaby Joyce and Liberal MP John Alexander.
"What we have now is a plan to resolve this issue, then we can continue to govern for the Australian people," Ms Bishop said.
Turnbull supporter Christopher Pyne noted an election was not due until July 2019.
"Polls come and go and people should remain unfazed by them," he told ABC radio.
Cabinet colleague Mathias Cormann, who agreed the "messiness" of the past few weeks had hurt the government, insisted Mr Turnbull was providing strong and effective leadership for the coalition.
"Once we get to the next general election we'll be putting forward our record of achievement as well as our plan for the future," he said.
Mr Abbott said there were a lot of factors conspiring to make the prime minister's job difficult.
"I certainly think the government can win the next election, I think that is what we have got to be focused on," he told Ray Hadley on 2GB radio.
Mr Shorten noted Ms Bishop had tripled her photo opportunities in recent weeks.
He also told a meeting of opposition senators in Canberra that cabinet ministers were now leaking that they no longer trust Mr Turnbull's judgment.

One of the essences of a data architecture is an overall blueprint of the architecture. The composite architecture combining all data is shown to contain different layers of data. There is interactive data, archival data, integrated data, and other forms of data. The composite data architecture recognizes the life cycle of data within the corporation. Another view of architecture is that of how corporate data interfaces with Big Data.

Michelle has undertaken a variety of commissions for hospitals, hotels, a department store and design consultants among others. Commissioned works include digital prints on paper, large-scale wall-hangings and textile panels. Contact Michelle if you have a project in mind and would like to discuss a commission.
Two wall-hangings for the British Academy
Client: The British Academy, 10-11 Carlton House Terrace, London
73 x 288cm each
Having seen Michelle's work at Contemporary Applied Arts, Sir Nicholas Goodison recommended to the British Academies Art Committee, that they should commission her to make two large wall-hangings to fit two alcoves on their main staircase. Her work now hangs in place as part of their impressive art collection in Carlton House Terrace, St James'.
Inspiration for the artworks was drawn from the architectural detail within the interior and the impressive book collection in the two libraries at the Academy. Pigments were used to paint and print photographic imagery and graphic blocks of colour using hand cut paper stencils. Materials used were a natural flax linen, union linen, cotton satin and Tudor cotton/linen. To find out more about Michelle's commission, view her page on the British Academy website.
A Living Space: No 1,2 and 3, Purple, Yellow and Grey
Client: Kit Kemp, Firmdale Hotels
110 x 224 cm
The designs for the left and middle wall-hangings were based on two of Michelle's earlier pieces, 'Tea's Up: Purple' and 'Tea's Up: Yellow'.
Whilst researching makers work at CAA, for the exhibition 'A living Space: Curated by Kit Kemp', Kit Kemp had the idea to include these works within the show. However much larger artworks were needed, so Kit commissioned Michelle to print the three new pieces seen here.
Having selected two sections of her hangings which she particularly liked, CAA then asked Michelle if she would be willing to create these new larger pieces. She accepted the invitation and then went about scaling-up the imagery and in turn the silk screens, to paint and print these one-off artworks.
The hanging on the right was a completely new piece that Michelle designed to go with the other two. All three hangings were printed in sections, before the next stage of matching up printed areas and carefully piecing them together. Dyes and pigments were painted and printed by hand onto linen union, drill cotton satin and wool flannel. The artworks are now situated in Ham Yard Hotel, Soho, London (Firmdale Hotels).
Kit Kemp is a designer and co owner of Firmdale Hotels. Her concept for the exhibition was to create a Bloomsbury-Group inspired living space within the gallery of CAA.
Images: Firmdale Hotels
Client: Peter Jones Department Store, 2nd Floor Cafe.
170 x 110 cm
An art consultant working for the John Lewis Partnership, contacted CAA gallery with a view to commissioning artwork for their soon-to-be re-furbished store in Sloane Square. Michelle was selected to carry out the commission for the 2nd floor cafe at the Peter Jones. Following discussions and meetings with the consultant and interior design team, Michelle was given colour samples for the interior furnishings and set about designing the textile artwork.
The finished panel was hand-painted and printed with dyes and pigments onto linen union and cotton sateen, then stretched over a wooden frame.
White Wave
Client: Hove Polyclinic, South Downs NHS Trust
312 x 127 cm
When Michelle first visited the site of the Hove Polyclinic, the building was still in the early stages of construction. With architects plans and a brief from the client, Michelle started researching and photographing the local area – collecting images of deckchairs, the local windmill and architectural details from Brighton and Hove.
The wall-hanging was painted with dyes, then hand-printed using pigments and discharge. Metal eyelets were used as fixings to reference the sails and tarpaulin found on sailing boats.

'Wedding Bells'- Bridal Jewellery
Over the last 5 years I've been making my 'Bouquet Bangles' and other little jewellery mementos from beautiful wedding bouquets. It was a unique idea of mine and one I continue with today, having made numerous sparkling eco resin jewels for brides all around the world.
I love to work on these projects as they mark such a special moment in everyone's life. The hours of workmanship, months of procrastination and planning that go into making a bouquet all culminate in one day of admiration and then sadly the bouquets are often thrown away or dried and stored in a box; forgotten about and left to gather dust.
The bouquet bangles offer a renewed lease of life. To have a little reminder of the 'big day' and one you can also wear is all the more precious. If you'd like your own bouquet made into a special memento, you can drop me an email on my contact page.

It's a novelty.As George Mallory said when asked why he wanted to climb Everest: "Because it's there." If you're searching for deeper meaning into why a guy wants to put his penis between your breasts, you're just wasting energy. He likes putting his penis in/on/between/neat things and he likes your breasts. There's no "what is the sound of one hand clapping?" shit going on here. This is just a guy taking two of his favorite things in the world and quite literally mashing them together.
He's a little bit worried about basically rubbing his bare butt against your sternum.There are two standard ways to perform the ol' TF (my not-so-secret, less gross term for "titty-fucking"), and one of them comes with a host of logistical issues. If he's seated and you're between his legs, there's not much for him to worry about. But if you're lying on your back and he's straddling you, he has to make a few decisions. Is he going to park his sweaty ass on your stomach while this all goes down? Is he going to awkwardly hover inches above you while his hamstrings cry out for mercy? He better hope his butt is clean.
He's sorry for inadvertently jabbing you in the neck with his penis.He really doesn't mean to, it's just that he's very enthusiastic about the whole thing.
This is the cilantro of sex acts.It's cool that cilantro is there on the plate, but you probably wouldn't miss it if you got a steak with no garnish. Cilantro is nice, but it isn't filling. Also, some people hate cilantro!
You will not hurt his penis if you squeeze your boobs together.You really can't go too tight here. Your breasts are soft pillows. You're not going to hurt his dick. But we appreciate you caring!
There's virtually no such thing as too small.Again, it's likely all about the novelty to him, not the size-to-penis-engulfment ratio. Don't sweat it.
If you're using this as the finisher, it positions him to ejaculate on your breasts.It's not a requirement and you're not at all obligated. It's like that "do you want to make a $1 donation?" message that comes up when you swipe your debit card at the register. So if that's not a fund you want to contribute to, let him know ASAP so he has ample time to figure out a plan B. It can be a difficult position to maneuver out of physically, so the more notice the better.
He is *terrified* of getting it on your face or in your eye.He will never be more fixated on "aim" in any other sexual act, ever.
He would really love to touch your boobs more.He'd really like to touch them while he slides his penis in and out like a hot dog sliding in and out of a bun over and over. Which isn't something a hot dog typically does, so this metaphor falls apart quickly. Which is a shame, because I had an entire paragraph ready to go about how semen is kinda like mustard.

Father of the Deaf
Charles-Michel de l'Épée was born to a wealthy French family in 1712. He trained to be a Catholic priest but was denied ordination and went on to study law before returning to the Church. A chance encounter with two deaf sisters who communicated using a signed language inspired Épée to dedicate himself to the education and salvation of the deaf. In the 1750s, he founded a shelter that eventually became the world's first free school for the deaf. What are some criticisms of his signing system?
