My special favorites in the animal world are horses, and I would love to be able to put them on the list, but while horses are amazing and heaps of fun, they also require a lot of hard work and are expensive to feed (I can almost hear the fathers of horse owners cheering "Hear hear!")
Now for the list!
1. Hermit Crabs
*Mum's #1 choice*
I think hermit crabs must be THE easiest pets, and the cheapest! All you need to do is bath them in salt water once a week, and make sure they have food and water. No fuss whatsoever! And unlike fish, you can a hold them, which is {usually} fun :)
DISCLAIMER: Hermit crabs can give a nasty nip if they are annoyed, or if you hold them for too long, so BEWARE!!
Cute Eh?
2. Cats
*Mum's #2 choice*
This may be surprising, but cats are almost as easy as fish! They do not require exercise, and they clean themselves, unlike fish, whose tanks or bowls need regular cleaning. In fact, practically all you have to do is give them food and water, and litter if they are kept indoors.
DISCLAIMER: Cats need to be treated for fleas and worms regularly, which is not fun. Also, they tend to eat birds....
Our cat, Angel
3. Fish
Fish are one of the easiest pets and cheapest pets. They are also pretty and relaxing to watch. Care gets a little more pricey if you buy a filter, but not much, and it will make your fish happier and live longer, and the water will stay crystal clean :)
DISCLAIMER: Fish can be just a leetle boring compared to most pets. I don't find mine boring at all, but maybe that is because I have a energetic dog to look after as well...
My fish
4. Guinea pigs
Guinea pigs are super cute, and lots of fun as well. They are also very easy to breed, but unfortunately pet shops don't pay to well for them (trust me, I know all about it, I used to breed them and once had 13 at once!!)
DISCLAIMER: Guinea pigs are very messy, and their cages need to be cleaned out a lot!

5. Dogs
Dogs are one of the most fun animals to get, and they can be very family-friendly indeed. Something very important to consider is what breed you get. Some dogs just don't have a good temperament, and others do.
Dogs can do things that many other pets cannot - you can take them for walks, teach them tricks and heaps more!
DISCLAIMER: Dogs can be rather messy, and do need quite a bit of training (like behaving on the lead, not jumping etc), so I would recommend only getting one if you have someone in your family who is willing (and old enough) to do things like training.
Our dog, Happy, is a Labrador x Golden Retriever
I hope you have enjoyed this post, and if you have any family-friendly pets to recommend, do tell! (in a comment).

McDonald Cup Mixed Tournament 2018
The Mixed Tournament for the McDonald Cup went ahead on a gloriously sunny July afternoon. The event attracted a good mix of ladies and gents with doubles partners drawn on the day.
The competition included the preliminary round robin which led onto the final between Dylan Sweeney and Catherine Frame against Dougal MacPherson and Maggie Lamont. It was a closely fought game and the eventual winners were Dylan and Catherine.
As usual, the much anticipated social afternoon lived up to expectation with some enjoyable tennis mixed in with 'apres tennis' refreshments for all to enjoy!
We would love to see some new faces joining us for upcoming social tennis and look forward to catching up with regular members. Even if you don't fancy playing this time please feel free to pop by to support the event and watch some tennis.

New technology is terrific, but a well-run employee newsletter is still a valuable channel. The ideal state is when a newsletter contains unique content that helps employees understand key issues, builds a sense of community and provides information employees can use.
Unfortunately, some newsletters fall short of this ideal. While many types of missteps are possible, newsletters most often fail because they're geared for senior executives (not for employees). And they rehash official, corporate material.
Ain't nobody got time for that. If your newsletter has more than one or two of these warning signs, it's time for a refresh.
You know your employee newsletter is in trouble when:
- The "news" is two months old.
- As a matter of fact, you think the role of a newsletter is to share news. (These days, real news is known almost instantly. So unless you're distributing your newsletter via text many times a day, it contains nothing truly new.)
- Most of the content is re-packaged press releases and corporate announcements.
- The focus is factual.
- There's no emotion.
- The only employees quoted are executives and VPs.
- It's a "quarterly" that's only published three times a year.
- It's a quarterly at all (that's a very old-fashioned publishing schedule).
- Articles are 500 words long. Or even 250. (Again, ain't nobody got time . . .)
- Articles have a reading level of 12th grade. Or 11. Or 10. (8 is great.)
- By the time the copy is approved, it reads like a legal brief.
- The CEO has his own column in every issue, located at the top of the front page.
- Employees take the newsletter home because reading it is a sure cure for insomnia.
You get the picture. You have the power to create an awesome newsletter. But it may require some work to reach its potential.

Social Media Social Media Marketing - August 31st, 2012
With more companies jumping onto the social media bandwagon, it is becoming increasingly clear that measuring its monetary impact calls for a new set of techniques. This comes as no surprise, since social media in itself is a relatively new development compared to traditional modes of communication.
In order to measure your social media ROI, you need to know your social media investment in the first place. How do you calculate that? Measuring it in terms of Facebook likes and Twitter followers will give you a picture far from what is real. In other words, to conclude that your total number of 'likes' or 'followers' is directly proportional to your actual sales is a serious mistake. A 'like' or a 'follower' is just a potential business opportunity. At the end of the day, it is the sales conversion rate that matters.
Furthermore, the investment on social media is not directly a tangible, monetary one. It has to do more with man-hours since it involves timely updation of relevant, fresh content. It is only through such an ongoing activity that one can create strong engagement.
Thanks to social media, organizations have been able to reduce their customer service expenses drastically. Facebook and Twitter are brilliant customer-facing platforms. It has also enabled them to receive direct customer feedback. In other words, one way to measure your social media ROI is to calculate the total money saved by using social media.
As you must have already understood, calculating the full extent of social media ROI is still not entirely possible. But Google's Analytics tool has been found to be quite effective bringing in new levels of insights in terms of social share. It aims at identifying the full value of traffic coming from social sites and to measure how they lead to direct conversions or assist in future conversions.
Last but not the least, what we need to understand is that, social media is not a destination; instead it is an effective communication tool that needs to be incorporated with the traditional methods.

Eight Corby phone boxes are set to be removed by BT.
Corby Borough Council has publicised the fact that British Telecom is propose to remove eight public phone boxes in the borough.
During October 2016, BT posted a notice on each of the payphones proposed for removal, advising of their plans.
Under Ofcom regulations, the council now has responsibility for carrying out a consultation with the local community on these proposals.
Corby Borough Council is now seeking your comments on the proposed plans to remove the following public payphones:
Occupation Road/Rutherglen Road,Corby
Willowbrook Road/Maidford Road, Corby
Princewood/Causeway Road, Gretton Brook Industrial Estate, Corby
Newark Drive, Corby
High Street, Stanion
Shire Road/Stour Road, Corby
High Street, Weldon
Great Oakley, Corby
According to figures, the overall use of payphones has reduced by more than 90 per cent in the last decade and the need to provide payphones for emergency situations is falling, with at least 98 per cent of the UK having 3G or 4G coverage.
BT says that as long as there is network coverage, it is possible to call emergency services even when there is no credit or coverage from your own mobile provider.
BT requires justification for any objection made to the removal of a payphone. For example, there may be no mobile coverage in a particular area, the payphone may be well used by residents or the passing public, or it may be located close to an accident hotspot.
Any comments received will be taken into consideration in the council's decision on whether to agree to the removal of a payphone or whether to object.
Comments must be received by no later than Friday, December 2, via email to email@example.com or alternatively, you can post your comments to the following address:
BT Payphone Consultation, Local Plans, Corby Borough Council, Deene House. New Post Office Square, Corby, Northamptonshire NN17 1GD.

Across The Generations
Across the Generations
From the beginning, the seniors have connected to Saratogians across the generations. High school singers performed for the Golden Age Club in its early years, and more recently, a 1990s class created a sign for the center. Teaching is a two way street – sometimes seniors collaborate in intergenerational arts projects. At other times, the next generation offers technological advice.

The humble beginnings of an under-appreciated series. Let's Rave about Breath of Fire!
I remember the first time I heard about Breath of Fire. It was in the July 1994 issue of Nintendo Power magazine. They had an 8-paged spread which covered some of the game's features, mechanics, and the first couple of major events in brief note form. I flipped to the final pages of the issue to read the "Now Playing" review section, and I laughed at the pros and cons they listed:
+ Good depth and variety of play due to the many characters in your party. The game isn't as linear as some RPGs such as Final Fantasy II. Lots of exploration without endless battles required for building your levels.
– Limited magic. More fighting than adventure fans might like. Standard story and themes.
… who wrote this? "Isn't as linear"? This game is hella linear! "More fighting than adventure fans might like"? Of course there'd be more fighting than in an adventure game… because it's NOT and adventure game, it's an RPG! You need to fight to GRIND FOR LEVELS SO YOU WON'T GET KILLED! It's weird to praise it for not having endless battles only to complain about lots of battles. ACK!
Anyhow, the issue piqued my interest enough to rent the game one weekend. And again the following weekend. Then again a couple of months later. I've lost track of the number of times I rented the game before I was finally able to finish it in 3 days. Only to rent it again. It became a regular visitor to my SNES until I was finally able to purchase it from the very store I constantly rented it from when they were clearing out their inventory.
Breath of Fire must have a baller story to get me to rent it so much. And it was… okay. But the story was just one cog in a mighty machine of RPG awesomesauce.
Centuries ago, the dragon clans, once living in harmony, began to to fight one other for the power of a wish-granting goddess; their fights turning into a full-out war that brought the world to the brink of destruction. A member of the Light Dragon clan stepped forward to put an end to the madness. He, along with seven companions, defeated the goddess and sealed her away using six keys that were then scattered around the world. Then everything went all peaceful.
Now, the Dark Dragon family, headed by the evil Emperor Zog, is hunting down the keys to release the goddess in a bid for world domination. They've disposed of opposition from the other families; the only ones to stand in their way are the Light Dragons.
As our story begins, the quiet village of the Light Dragons, Drogen, is razed and surrounded by the Dark Dragons. The Light Dragons, however, have long ago sealed off their powers wanting no part of the dragon family in-fighting. Sara, the only Light Dragon with any power left, turns the other villagers to stone to protect them from the scolding heat of the flames swallowing up the Elder's home where they hid. She then goes to confront the invaders and their commander, Jade. Though the brave Light Dragon stood her ground, she is ultimately defeated, her fate unknown.
The spell of Stone lifts shortly thereafter. Sara's brother, Ryu, ventures forth to find the Goddess Keys before Zog's forces do, and to put a stop to the Dark Dragons.
Fun fact about Breath of Fire: Capcom published the game themselves in Japan, but when the decision was made to bring the game overseas, they handed it over to Squaresoft, who already had a great deal of experience in localizing RPGs for the west. I'd say that was a good call: though there were a few name changes here and there, the actual text was pretty good. I am curious to see if I could get a hold of the original script for the heck of it (Japanese Vocab Building FTW!).
Breath of Prettiness
Breath of Fire is nice to look at. Though it follows the "characters are cute on map screen/ big during battle scenes" formula, the sprites on the map are quite large, and the maps themselves have quite a bit of detail in them. Flowers on the ground, fruit trees scattered about that you can actually get fruit from, palm trees in desert areas. These details are small, mind you, but they add a nice touch.
The battle sprites are just awesome. They're presented in a 3/4th perspective, with the enemies taking the top left, and your party the bottom right. And they're HUGE! The enemies are a varied sort: Pig men swinging swords above their head, Knights, floating slime things, flying fish… the list goes on. They all look great, and what's really neat is that most of them are animated (and animated well, I must add!) during both their standing poses and attacks. Your party is static when standing still (except party members like Nina, who have the ability to fly), but they move during their attacks, and it's just as awesome to see.
Oh, and here's something nifty: the menu system is all icon-based. There aren't any descriptions for the menu icons, but they're easy to figure out. Same can't be said for the written descriptions of items, though. They're so VAGUE! Seriously, your guess is as good as mine 😕
And the music is very whimsical and just sounds right. What I really love is how the music changes after key moments in the game. For example, the music for the world map changes three times; the final time returning to the awesome "Breath of Fire" main theme used at the start of the game. The battle music changes to something a bit more dramatic-sounding around the half-way point. It's such a hummable soundtrack, and I love it to bits.
Every Journey Starts With A Single Step
Like many journeys, you start off a lone warrior; running into agents of the Dark Dragons at almost every turn. You will eventually meet seven companions who will fight alongside you, each fulfilling those traditional party roles (Nina the Healer; Karn the Thief, Bleu the Sorceress, etc.). What's nice is that your party members have abilities that extent outside enemy encounters!
Everyone (with the exception of Bleu) has an ability they can use while travelling the world map. For example, Ryu can go fishing at designated fishing spots (and wells!) if you equip him with a fishing rod and some bait. Bo can hunt game that occasionally roam around after a fight, and he can lead your party through forested areas. Nina can transform into a giant bird and you can fly around the world map (she doesn't get this ability until very late in the game, though). Each party member has a use, but some will be used more than others.
Unleash The Kaiser!
In terms of fighting, as with all RPGs that have quite an assortment of allies, many fall out of use (to an extent). For example, you'll most likely always have Nina in your party because she's the healer, but Bo (who totally kicks ass when you first get him early on in the game) becomes less and less useful as you progress.
The game kinda remedies this with Karn's Transformation ability. He'll be able to combine with two or more of your animal-humanoid companions to become a super-strong character. What makes these transformations a huge treat (besides being the powerhouses that they are), is that they're immune to almost every status ailment (only thing that can hit them is the Death spell).
Speaking of Transformations, the big bullet point feature of Breath of Fire, and the one that carries over to every instalment, is the Dragon Transformation System. Ryu can transform into several different dragon types after enduring a trial at one of three different temples. These powers are stupid powerful… and make the game stupid easy.
That's probably the only thing that really irked me about Breath of Fire. While this is addressed in the sequels (some solutions better than others), the original Breath of Fire's Dragon System is so broken. For a small amount of magic, you can transform into a dragon (the transformation gets you back to full HP, too), and you just stand there and unleash of flurry of attacks. The only way you go back to normal is if Ryu dies, or if you voluntarily revert back. It makes later foes, some of the baddest of the bad, complete pushovers. And these attacks count as physical damage with an elemental attribute, rather than being a magic-based attack… and that Agni 999 max damage is (to steal a phrase from the Fighting Game Community) Godlike.
So yea. Dragon Transformations are dominate forces of nature.
Why is Breath of Fire So Endearing?
Breath of Fire's story is the quintessential RPG story in a high-fantasy setting: one lone hero sets off to stop an evil ruler from taking over the world; gathers companions who share his sense of justice. Yea, this is a common plot used in so many games, but still, there was a quaint charm. The characters are an interesting lot (not everyday I get to fight with a mole man!), and though many in the cast don't speak as much as I would like, you can still get a glimpse to the type of personality they have (Karn is confident as a thief, Gobi loves his money, etc.).
As is usually the case in RPGs, you gotta solve the problem in each village you visit in order to advance. While some are pretty straightforward (go stop the Wizard's evil scheme and get an anecdote for the poisoned King), there were some that were much longer and very epic (the battle to save the underwater town of Prima and the metalworker town of Gant is an awesome story arc). And then there were the odd ones, like getting the flute from musical kingdom of Tunlan which ends in a massive cat-fight involving Nina, Bleu, the Princess of Tunlan, and the guards. Hell, you even play the role of a dreamwalker and start to invade people's dream to bring the fight to the bad guys. And those dream sequences are trippy as hell.
Breath of Fire wasn't striving to be a Final Fantasy, it was just doing it's own thing and doing it to the best of its ability. And, for me, that was good enough. The story, the visuals, the music… everything just came together in just the right amounts to create a worthwhile experience for RPG fans and nostalgia fiends alike.
If you happen to stumble upon this lil' gem on either the SNES or its re-release on the Game Boy Advanced, pick it up!

Comparison Shopping Engines
Should CSE's Be Part of YOUR PPC Mix?
by Nick Loeser
Simply put, comparison shopping engines (CSEs) are search engines for products. And in recent years, they have sprung up on the Internet like wildflowers; mostly because they offer a form of pay-per-click (PPC) advertising that traditional sites, like Yahoo! Search Marketing and Google AdWords cannot.
To begin, a merchant uploads their products to the CSE, either individually or through a custom product feed. Then, when a user searches for a product, those that match — from both the merchant and competing companies — appear on a results page. And, like large search engines, the order in which results appear varies depending on the particular CSE. Some sites like Yahoo! Shopping rank based on bid. Others rank based on relevancy and popularity. Each shopping comparison site has its own algorithm and method for ranking, however, the business model is mostly the same. The merchant pays when a user clicks on their product and is taken to the website.
The obvious advantage to CSE advertising over traditional PPC is traffic is usually better qualified. The person clicking on a listing is likely further along in the buying process and that much closer to making a purchase. Furthermore, listings feature a product picture and typically a short description (before the user clicks) which helps to further filter out browsers and funnel in buyers. Another but similar advantage is that merchants don't have to compete for attention in the crowded marketplace of major search engines. Less competition means that your products have a better chance of being seen by qualified consumers.
The benefit of CSEs for consumers includes researching products, user reviews, locating stores with the best customer ratings and, most importantly, finding the best price.
To find out which CSEs are being used and what kind of results are being seen by merchants and consumers, we sent out an extensive survey to Website Magazine readers of which 331 responded — your peers, and likely some of your competitors.
You can see that Yahoo! Shopping was the clear preference of merchants to list their products. Not coincidentally, it is also one of the most trafficked. And though traffic is an important factor for success with CSEs, there is value in using less popular sites. The PPC model often creates an auction style bidding system for ranking. So if I sell rocking chairs on Yahoo! Shopping, my products are going to be competing with dozens of other merchants selling the same thing. I must increase my bid to have my listing appear towards the top to get more clicks. However, if I use a less popular site I may receive fewer clicks, but I'll likely pay less for each click and arguably less per conversion. It's important to consider this factor when picking a CSE. In the end, the less popular site might result in a higher ROI.
Are CSEs Working for You?
Though consumers are certainly interested in using CSEs, the numbers are not quite as high when you look at merchant's use of them. About 25 percent of survey respondents are currently using the sites as part of their online marketing strategy. However, of that, just 10 percent are currently using 2-4 CSEs, and a mere 5 percent are using 5 or more. You wouldn't want your website only listed in one search engine, so it's hard to understand the lack of exposure across multiple CSEs.
Finally, we asked if merchants are finding success when listing with CSEs. What we discovered was shocking. Just under half of all respondents found the sites to be somewhat effective in both driving traffic and converting sales. But in all categories, the winner was "Don't know" — at least half of all respondents have no idea if their CSE investments are paying off.
When using CSEs you must have a method for measuring your ROI. They all come with some reporting features, but the best way to track your investment is to have your own third-party analytics solution in place. And in this day and age, with the abundance of analytics tools available, there's simply no excuse for not tracking your marketing spend.
To Use a CSE Or Not To Use A CSE
The big question for merchants when choosing a CSE instead of, or combined with traditional PPC advertising is if consumers are actually using the sites. Our survey found that 53 percent of consumers used a CSE at least once a month – 24 percent of which used them at least once a week. A separate survey question found that 25 percent of respondents find CSEs "very effective" when shopping online, while another 30 percent responded with "moderately effective." Just five percent replied "not effective."
Using Google Analytics you can easily track your PPC advertising by creating goals. For example, if I am using Yahoo! Shopping, I can segment all traffic referrals from shopping.yahoo.com, and then review the goals (or sales) I received from just that traffic. This is a terrific tool, and free for anyone to use.
Another way of accurately measuring your success with CSEs is to create unique URLs for the product feed. Many popular shopping carts like Miva and Volusion allow you to create affiliates. Each affiliate gets a unique URL as a way of tracking their sales. Set up an affiliate for each of the CSEs you use, and then adjust the product data feed to reflect the unique URL. This will accurately track the origin of your sales.
It's clear that consumers are using CSEs when they shop online. And that means that there is a big opportunity for merchants to garner highly qualified traffic that has a good chance to convert and ultimately increase revenue. Unfortunately, it's just as clear that merchants are not tracking their successes or failures with CSEs. As the busy online shopping season approaches, it's a good idea to explore some of these unique websites and see if your PPC campaign can get a little boost. Of course, you'll never know unless you use your analytics.

Black Watch to tour
After bowling over audiences at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe last year, BLACK Watch is to tour five Scottish towns and cities this spring, according to the Scotsman. The hit play, about a Scottish regiment and its soldiers on the front lines in Iraq, is a National Theatre of Scotland production.
Launched in February 2006, National Theatre of Scotland has energy and elan, but no building. It does not appear interested in one. It tours wherever it can find a stage.
In Edinburgh, people faced each other in two banks of seats, with a wide performance space in between where actors staged everything from mock parades to firefights in Iraq. Powerful music and sound effects included blasts of gunfire.
Playwright Gregory Burke interviewed serving and former soldiers. His play "won plaudits from military insiders for its no-nonsense portrayal of army life." Black Watch reveals "what it means to be part of the legendary Scottish regiment, what it means to be part of the war on terror and what it means to make the journey home again."
Called "glorious. . .truthful. . .moving," the play is is expected to tour internationally. The only hitch is the difficulty in finding venues large enough to host the production.

Bringing Your Computer to GSSM
The most important thing to consider when sending a computer to school with your student is reliability and repairability. A computer in excellent working condition and with active warranty coverage is an important asset for a Govie.
Use of GSSM technology is governed by the school's Appropriate Use Policy.
Are computers required?
No, but nearly all students bring them. While there are computers available in labs for student use, they are only available until 10:30pm and most students report working beyond that time to complete assignments and prepare for tests. Much of GSSM's coursework is assigned and submitted online.
What kind of computer will work best for me?
Computers sold in the past two or three years do everything that GSSM coursework requires. Most students bring Windows computers, but many also use Apple computers. Computer enthusiasts find that Linux computers working also work well at GSSM. Laptops can be extra handy when students work outside of their rooms.
What software do I need?
Every GSSM student is entitled to install a full version of Microsoft Office on up to five devices (Windows, Mac, Android, etc) without charge. This software will work while a student is enrolled at GSSM. There is no need for families to purchase Microsoft Office themselves. During the summer, students will receive their GSSM Outlook credentials which will enable them to download and install Office to their computers.
Anti-Virus software
Every laptop and desktop computer must run up-to-date anti-virus software. Here is a recent review of free and inexpensive antivirus solutions.
Who can I ask for help?
Several GSSM students are trained and receive community engagement credit for assisting other students. It should come as no surprise that we have more than our share of computer wizards here! GSSM also has technical experts on staff who can help students diagnose problems.
What happens if my computer needs repair while I'm at GSSM?
If a computer is under warranty, we can help arrange the repair. We often refer students to computer repair organizations in town. Otherwise, students and their families make arrangements for repairs.
Where is the WiFi?
Wifi is available indoors and outdoors throughout campus, at the Startsville offices downtown, and Crema.
Some students bring a printer, but it is not required. Student Council sponsors and supports printers in the residence halls, and students often use the computer lab printers for assignments. The school does not charge for paper or toner used in its printers.
What else should I bring?
- A network cable (at least 10 feet long) if bringing a desktop computer
- Installation media for all of your software
- Warranty documentation, and a copy of the purchase receipt
- A surge suppressor
- Paper and plenty of ink if bringing a printer
These are the most important issues associated with bringing a computer to GSSM. If you have other questions, please contact us.

Step 2: The Running Count – Keep a Running count by adding or subtracting every card that you see in each shoe
As each card is dealt, we will update our "running count" with the new information we are given.
So the running count for this round is 0
The running count for this round is +1
A card counter does this for each card that comes out of the shoe: card after card and round after round until the dealer shuffles the cards again. Back in the days of single deck blackjack, this information would have been enough to start betting accordingly. If the running count increases, the advantage begins shifting to the player. If the running count goes negative, the casino's advantage increases.
Step 3: For multiple decks use the running count to calculate a "True Count" or count per deck
In an attempt to thwart card counters, casinos began using multiple decks. Nice try, Casinos! To use our running count in a multiple deck game, we simply have to translate our information into a "True Count" or "count per deck. We'll break down each step below. Having a +5 running count with 6 decks remaining is a completely different scenario from having a +5 running count with only 1 deck remaining. In the first instance, there is less than 1 additional high card per deck remaining so the player doesn't have the advantage yet. It's not just the number of extra high cards that matters to a card counter; it's the concentration of high cards compared to the concentration of low cards. So if you had that running count of 5 with only 1 deck remaining, we know that there are 5 extra 10's and Aces in the remaining 52 cards, which puts the edge in the hands of the player! That's why the "True Count" is so valuable. EXAMPLE #1: If our Running Count is 10 and we have 5 decks remaining, our True Count is 10÷5 = 2. EXAMPLE #2: If our Running Count is -7 and we have 2 decks remaining, our True Count is -7÷2 = -3 When using perfect basic strategy and card counting, we are able to use this information to bet according to our advantage. That's how we card counters make our money! The true count will also inform us of when to change our playing strategy. We call these "playing deviations". We provide free charts of playing deviations to our members.

Chris' list o' things to throw money at in 2013
I suppose a 2013 preview list should not be written 14 days into year, but I did a lot of traveling over the holidays, and acquired several video games of worth. If anything, SEGA should be held responsible for pushing "Anarchy Reigns" back to this week.
Anywho, 2012 was a shockingly awesome year for collectibles, so hopefully 2013 will continue the trend. We're a month away from Toy Fair, and 2 months away from c2e2, so some comics and toys new is light. "Some" being the key world here. There's some things announced in 2012 that still haven't seen the light yet, so I'll talk about those!
I've poked a ton of fun at DC this past year (for good reasons), but there is some hope for them to acquire some of my cash-money in 2013. First off, Jeff Lemire (Animal Man, Justice League Dark) is taking over "Green Arrow", which may have cool results. Given the success of "Arrow" on the CW, DC should have a book that's readable for potential new readers. That and Lemire has put out some great stuff for DC. Lemire's Rotworld-buddy Scott Snyder has 2 new books coming out from DC as well: a Vertigo maxi-series called "The Wake" with my boy Sean Murphy (Punk Rock Jesus) and a new Superman title with Jim Lee, which I'm fairly certain will be called "Man of Steel" (SYNERGY). Nice to see DC trying to step up as Marvel NOW is in full effect.
Speaking of the House of Ideas, A NEW UNCANNY X-MEN STARTS IN 2013! YES I KNOW THIS IS THE SECOND TIME WE'VE GOTTEN A NEW UNCANNY X-MEN #1 IN 2 YEARS. BUT CHRIS BACHALO IS DRAWING IT! AND FRAZER IRVING TOO! HOPEFULLY CAPSLOCK AND CONVEY HOW EXCITED I AM! (Bendis is on writing duties, which hey cool, but man, those artists). Marvel actually has like hojillion new books announced so far: a new Uncanny X-force, Young Avengers, Nova, Guardians of the Galaxy, and like 3 other books there's teasing at. And "Age of Ultron" starting this March. And Superior Spider-Man started this past week, so there's that too.
2013 looks great for the non Big 2 companies too! Dark Horse has Hellboy in Hell rolling on, a Brian Woods' penned "Star Wars" series, and something I stupid excited for- Gerald Way (My Chemical Romance) and Becky Cloonan's long awaited "Fabulous Livse of the Killjoys", launching this Free Comic Day. Image has new series/mini-series being launched like Matt Fraction, Kelly Sue Deconnick, Kieron Giellen, and Paul Pope. I'm fairly certain that's only the tip of the iceberg though. Not to mention Robert Kirkman's "Invincible" hits #100 this month.
And not to leave it off the list KaBOOM's "Adventure Time: Fionna & Cake" mini-series has started this month and it is pretty damn great. You go buy now.
Like I said earlier, details for 2013 toys are still kind of scarce, and we'll have more info next month. HOWEVER, we should have another wave of both Marvel Universe and Legends dropping this month, featuring the likes of Nova, Hercules, Red She-Hulk, Iron Fist and several more characters more familiar to the public at large. We'll also see the return of the Marvel Universe 3-packs, consisting of the likes of the West Coast Avengers, the Inhumans, 80s era Uncanny X-men, and the now disbanded Uncanny X-Men Extinction team. Also I imagine we'll see some toylines based on Iron Man 3 and Thor: The Dark World.
Non-Marvel toys of interest coming out in 2013 consist of a whole slew of Superman (and probably Batman) toys from Mattel and DC, a Kid Icarus figma from Max Factory (I AM EXCITE), a butt-ton of various -Arts figures from Bandai (Gundam, Dragon Ball, Pokemon,) and like seven trillion new Square Enix Playarts Kai figures from the millions of licenses they have. I'm not kidding, Square dropped like 2 new PA Kai figures this past month alone. More on those next week.
2013 is shaping up to be a pretty dope year for collectibles and comics. As for me, I got some cool stuff lined up that I can't talk about, but will shamelessly plug when I can. Convention-wise, you can stalk me at PAX East, c2e2, Heroescon and New York Comic Con this year, and on twitter @theanarCHris if you want to troll me and disagree with me over everything. FUN FOR ALL!

GAYLORD — Kathy Biernacki was having coffee at her neighbor's house on July 15 when a friend came over and asked if he could take her dog Lulu for a walk.
The friend soon returned and said that Lulu had found a small black puppy in the forest. Lulu had begun barking profusely at a patch of bushes and the puppy had barked back in reply.
"Scared that we wouldn't be able to find the dog again, I told Lulu take me back to the puppy, and we rushed back into the forest," Biernacki said. "We hoped that she would be able to find her way back to the bushes and miraculously she did."
Biernacki rescued the small black and tan mini-dachshund and brought it back to her house. She immediately called the Otsego County Animal Shelter to see if anyone had lost a dog recently.
It turned out the puppy belonged to a family from Ohio on vacation in the area. During the Fourth of July celebration, the small dog had been frightened by the fireworks and ran off.
The puppy had been last seen on July 10 on the west side of Otsego Lake and had been alone in the woods for five days before Biernacki found it.
Unable to find their puppy, the family had resigned to leave it behind when they returned home to Ohio at the end of the week.
Biernacki and Lulu found the puppy just in time to reunite it with its owners before they left the area.
"They were so happy because they thought they were going to have to leave it behind," Biernacki said. "It was a beautiful reunion."

Invasive weeds are an issue anywhere people travel or transport things. Every month, I will highlight a weed that is either not established or is in low abundance in Lyon County. Verified records of these weeds are very helpful to weed managers and Nevada Department of Agriculture. If you see these plants, you can report them directly to Nevada Department of Agriculture, using the app EDDmaps, or email me photos and a location. Invasive weeds are everyone's problem, so help keep them from invading your neighborhood and report them.
Scotch thistle, Onopordum acanthium, is a large spiny plant with pink to purple flowers. Thistles are difficult to identify, so confirm your identification before destroying thistles. Native thistle plants are declining for many reasons and need to be protected. Like most thistles, Scotch thistle is biennial and is a rosette of leaves the first year and bolts into a tall plant with flowers the second year. The rosette stage is difficult to identify. The bolted plant can be very tall, up to 6 feet. Characteristics of the leaves, flowers or seeds can distinguish it from other thistles.
Current distribution maps (EDDmaps or USDA Plant Database)of scotch thistle is broad across the United States. EDDmaps reports Scotch Thistle in Lyon county. I observed it while hiking in southern Lyon county. It is listed as a category B weed by Nevada Department of Agriculture. Scotch thistle can be controlled by pulling up the plant or removing the flower heads by cutting or mowing before it goes to seed. Nevada Department of Agriculture has recommendations for chemical control of Scotch thistle.

Please be merciful.
An Ancient!John Story
19 March, 2007 / IXX Mai. a.f.c. I – Atlantis, Lantea, Pegasus
The tiles are bitter cold against his knees, even through the heavy fustian of his robes. The sleeves keep getting in the way, sliding down Rodney's forearms every time he leans forward, but he'd been too much of a hurry to deal with the get-up's thousand-and-one buttons when this began and now he can't find the strength to move away long enough to rid himself of it. Even the thought of pulling away proves to be too much and with an unintelligible moan Rodney bows once more to the porcelain throne.
When he finally leans back, it's only far enough to rest his forehead on the rim. It, at least, is pleasantly cool against his brow, which gives him something to think about other than the thing that's finally finished dying in his mouth.
/Do you intend to die in this washroom,/ the city asks wryly, /or should we send for medical assistance?/
Rodney groans and, feeling there's no danger of him throwing up again as there's no way on Earth – or Lantea – that there's anything left in his stomach after the last four times, collapses on the floor. The toilet offers an uninspiring vision in the foreground, but the position at least allows him to glare at the ceiling with only the smallest of efforts. "I totally understand all those times John called you a bitch now."
'Lantis, being 'Lantis, raises the lights in the room to twice their normal brightness before dropping them back to a merciful ten percent in retaliation. /The universe is the one at fault,/ 'Lantis corrects. /We are just the poor, unfortunate urbs-navis who'd rather we didn't have to wash blood out of our grout again, yours in particular./
"Not bleeding," Rodney corrects, stomach rolling.
/We are not all that fond of any bodily fluids being where they were not intended./
"I'll remember that in case my stomach manages to find something else it wants to get rid of." He doesn't think it's likely, but the organ has been surprising him today with the things it's managed to dredge up out of the dark recesses of his digestive track. Last week's lunch, for instance, and what he's fairly certain was the remains of his high school's infamous Meatloaf Surprise, where the only surprise, as far as Rodney had been able to ascertain, was that anyone had thought to call it meatloaf.
/Thank you,/ the city says primly.
"You're welcome."
Her song shifts, becoming light-hearted, playful even. If she were human, he imagines she'd be shaking her head at him and trying not to smile. But she is not human; her winsome affections take shape in dimmed lights and quieted air recycling units, but the meaning is the same. He's only been pastor for a week, but he's suspected as much since the moment he first heard her song in his head so many years ago. /Do you still require medical assistance?/
What Rodney needs is his own bed, a handful of Aspirin, and his body weight in water. He's had more to drink tonight than he can honestly remember, but it had started with ruus wine at the dinner celebrating John's coronation, moved briefly to champagne while supplies held out at the party afterwards, and settled on a nameless cocktail that was one part pineapple juice and two parts arrack. He'd not intended to drink that much, but, god, people are stupid sometimes. While they hadn't gotten any less stupid, Rodney had been less inclined to care with each passing drink, until finally he was drunk enough that he could deal with the overenthusiastic well-wishers, would-be hangers-on, and political opportunists that had flocked to his side when they'd been unable to find John's.
What he needs is never to hear the phrases The God's Consort or The Ancestor's Intended appended to his name ever again. Not because they aren't true enough, but because everyone who'd spoken them tonight had made it out to be all that he was. Like he wasn't rector of Atlantis in his own right, like his greatest accomplishment was not the ATLAS Device or the Intergalactic Gate Bridge or the pair of devices of his own devising shoved into his brain that allowed him to talk to Atlantis, but the fact that he'd been able to get John into his bed. Which had made him drink still more.
What he needs is for people to remember that the Wraith are the enemy, not the worlds that want the Confederation to take a different path than they do. Allina Huskis' association of religiously motivated corporatists, the Moralists, wants little better than to shape the galaxy to their vision of the Ancestral religion. Dozens of worlds have flocked to her banner, her pseudoscientific excuses giving way to scripture as her powerbase grows. Dozens of others have banded together to oppose them under the leadership of one of the Athosians, spouting many of the same thoughts but replacing much of the god rhetoric with socialist economic theory of much the same bent. John calls them the Mutualists, though their politics are even more proto than Allina's. Even the ones not belonging to either party have their own agendas and none of them stop at getting rid of the Wraith. And all of them want him to carry their words to John, who cannot be bothered to stay for longer than twenty minutes at a party in his own honour.
"I think I'll be fine if I can make it to the transporter," he says at last. From there, it's a straight shot to his suite, his bed, and – if necessary – his bathroom.
/The vectura is at the end of the hall./
"I think I can manage it this time without any more detours." His stomach protests but is ultimately quiescent as he eases to his feet.
/Perhaps you should wait. Let us send for Iohannes,/ the city suggests, air recyclers clattering concernedly, /or Argathelianus./
"I'm a big boy, 'Lantis. I don't need someone to tuck me in."
/That is not what… we… mean…/ The city begins only to trail off as he leaves the washroom, faltering as Rodney discovers the cause of her hesitation: one of John's sycophants, standing just outside the washroom door as if she'd been waiting for him. Which she most certainly has.
Awkwardly, "Oh. Hello Allina. I didn't, er, see you there," he greets the Daganian Minster for Enterprise and Innovation, moving out of the doorway just enough so as not to get caught in the doors – which 'Lantis promptly shuts behind him, as if afraid he'll duck back inside if she leaves them open. Damnable city. Barely a week in his head and she already knows him too well.
She smiles at him in a way that is, if not honest, is at least warm. "That would be my own fault, I fear. Much of my early training in The Brotherhood involved learning to move unseen, the better to guard our secrets from the unlearned. I have never quite been able to shake myself of the habit."
"That's… nice. I'm just gonna go ahead and…" He waves a vague hand towards the end of the hall and the transporter that waits – with open doors – for him.
"Oh, no. Please don't go."
"Yeah… Now's not a really good time to talk? Maybe tomorrow? Or maybe you should just talk to John about it. Whatever it is. I really don't have a lot to do with the running of the Confederation. I really can't help you with, well, whatever it is you want."
"You are an intelligent man, Doctor McKay. Perhaps the most astute I have ever known. I am sure that we can find a way to help each other."
"Strangely enough, I don't really need any help right now," he informs the Minister, edging unsteadily towards the transporter, "but maybe some other time."
Allina reaches out, more quickly than his alcohol-addled brain can quite process, and grabs his wrist. Her hold is solid. He cannot break it and trying only worsens the dig of her nails into his flesh. He already knows the bruise will be terrible come a reasonable hour of the morning.
"Do not go, Doctor," she begs fervently. "There is so much we can do for one another and our common cause."
"Our cause?" he asks stupidly, unable to tear his eyes from where they grip his arm. Her skin is dark from the sun, her gown just the right shade of pale green to make her rather comely features seem impressive beyond measure. There are dozens of women still at the party more attractive than she, but she is the one pulling him near and, were he not with John, perhaps that would be enough for him to go along with whatever she wants to happen next.
But he is with John. They'll be married in two months and, even if they weren't, it's hard to want to be with anyone else when Rodney already has everything he's ever wanted.
"If the Wraith could be defeated with mere weapons, they would have been overcome long ago."
"I think you're seriously overestimating your weapons," he wants to say. What comes out is, "Let go of my arm," his voice sounding faint and far away through the rush of blood in his ears.
If Allina hears, she pays it no mind; such is the ardency of her beliefs. "The Ancestors are mighty, but we are not. They only wait for the day we are strong enough to stand beside them to begin the final battle against the darkness. The Lord Iohannes has taken us down the first step towards the War of Wars, but there is a long way yet to go. Only by ensuring our children have enough strength of blood and bone, muscle and sinew, mind and morals to continue the battle will the war be won."
Rodney thinks of the university John has endowed and the classes set to begin there next week, its opening delayed only by the need to screen applicants – a task Rodney had gleefully passed off to Zelenka. He thinks about the Argosy Ronon has been training on Genia since the Second Exodus and the first graduates thereof, who'd marched in the Coronation. Both are but the latest examples of everything John's done for this galaxy.
But what he says is, "Let go of me."
"I have no wish to harm you, but you must understand, the very fate of the galaxy is at stake. I only press the matter because you are the Lord's consort. He will listen to your council."
"Let go."
At length she does, but she's still too close. His head is reeling and his stomach rolling and all he wants is to be in his own bed, but he'll settle for Allina taking a step or two outside of his personal bubble. She's still close enough that he can smell her perfume over the lingering stench of alcohol and sick clinging to his clothes. All his drinking has left Rodney flushed, but the warmth of her body still threatens to seep through the front of his robes. Blood continues to thunder in his ears, deafening his already dimmed thoughts. If he were sober, he might have asked 'Lantis to send for John or Lorne after all. But he's far from it and says instead, "Thank you," drunkenly full of offended dignity and low on common sense.
Maybe she is as well. Maybe she only sees an opportunity to press her advantage. Either way, Allina only moves closer and places the hand that had captured his wrist on his chest, directly over his heart. "You are an exceptional man, Doctor McKay. I have heard it said that you are the smartest man in two galaxies, if not more. You must know the truth of my words. I do not expect your affection. You cannot give me that, I know. But I know that once you felt some tenderness for me, and that may be enough."
"Enough for what?" he somehow manages to ask, though his head is spinning.
Allina is a politician, the Master Handler of the Sudarian Quindosim. She'd used him and his team to find her precious potentia and taken it from them at gunpoint when she'd learned that none of them were her beloved Ancestors – or, at least, admitting to such at the time. Even now that she knows what John really is, she hasn't handed over the ZedPM, although the whole purpose of her order was to present it to her gods upon their return. She uses people, abandons them, and calls it divine will. Her latest cause célèbre has something to do with population bottlenecks and inbreeding depression and the end of days, but Rodney doesn't know what she expects him to do it at 0130 in the morning, half-drunk drunk and unable to even pretend to care.
"For you to give me a child," she says, as if it were the only obvious conclusion. Perhaps, for her, it is, but Rodney's mind quickly replays all of the interaction he's ever had with the woman, little as it is, and comes up significantly wanting. "Even a single child of your bloodline would be a great boon to this galaxy. The chance to bear that child is all I ask."
But those are only words, and for all Allina says them, Rodney can't quite parse their meaning until her hand starts sliding down his chest, towards his belt It's only then that he realizes what's happening, what she wants, and then the bile rises in his throat once more. He'd give anything to stop this, to make her back off, to make her just go away, but he's drunk and starting to panic and forming a thought much more complicated than stop just isn't happening.
Rodney thinks he's going to be sick. This isn't happening. This can't be happening. There is no earthly reason why this might be happening to him. Things like this just don't happen to people like him, no matter how drunk they might be. He's engaged. He's on Atlantis. He's got a pair of devices shoved in his head so he can talk to Atlantis. He-
-thinks he's going to be sick, if his head doesn't explode first.
And then, like magic, Allina flies backwards, away from his belt and all the things he couldn't want less, and crashes into the wall two-and-a-half yards behind. The plaster cracks under her weight. A trickle of blood follows her body to the floor.

As a photographer I believe my photos will tell the story, of what an amazing day this was!
So here goes! Many congratulations and Happy Anniversary for the 16th!

By Gary Van Sickle
The Official World Golf Ranking is the most accurate ranking golf has ever had. It's better than the money list, which for years was our main barometer. It's better than the FedEx Cup points, which nobody cares about until the very end of the PGA Tour season, if then.
It's still flawed. I don't have a fix. What bothers me about the OWGR is that it is used so extensively to determine the fields for the majors and World Golf Championships.
My main criticism is that the ranking reacts reasonably swiftly to good results and players on the way up but is far too slow to players going the other direction.
Joe Beditz of the National Golf Foundation is widely recognized as a leading expert on the business of golf. Beditz joined the NGF in 1984 and has served as its president and chief executive since 1989. Under his leadership, the NGF, founded in 1936, has become one of the world's foremost research and consulting organizations for the golf market.
Part of the legacy that Beditz and the NGF always will have to overcome is their 1990s claim that America could open a new course each day and not fulfill demand. In fairness to the NGF, residential developers across the country leveraged that statement and produced a glut of courses, with little regard for golf's local demographics. Those land developers worried more about selling fairway residences than the viability of the golf courses left behind. They are more to blame than Beditz and the NGF.
A quest for comfort amid so many stuffed shirts
If the PGA of America, the USGA, the country clubs, the golf companies and the golfers took a look around at today's society, they would clearly see that there has been a "relaxed" movement ("PGA of America's relaxed attire seems shortsighted," March 6, bit.ly/2lBVtr6).
Walk into most major corporations and check out the office attire of the professionals at work. At a minimum, one would see a "casual Friday" and/or a "summer dress code." There are certainly fewer suits, ties and dresses being worn in corporate America today. Why shouldn't golf and the golf industry be part of this relaxed movement?
Number of International team players from the 2015 Presidents Cup to finish among the top 25 in last week's WGC-Mexico Championship. Hideki Matsuyama tied for 25th in Mexico City, 11 strokes behind winner Dustin Johnson. By comparison, Johnson and five other Americans from the victorious 2015 Presidents Cup team – Phil Mickelson (T-7), J.B. Holmes (T-12), Jordan Spieth (T-12), Rickie Fowler (T-16) and Matt Kuchar (T-20) – placed among the top 20 in Mexico. International captain Nick Price faces some roster work before the biennial matches Sept. 28-Oct. 1 at Liberty National Golf Club in Jersey City, N.J., if he wants to win the cup for the first time since 1998.
Number of cuts made, in three events this season, for Keith Mitchell on the Web.com Tour. Mitchell, 25, will make his PGA Tour debut in this week's Valspar Championship after he sank a 25-foot birdie on the first hole of a five-man playoff at Southern Hills Plantation in Brooksville, Fla., to win the fourth spot in the Monday qualifier. Fellow Georgia alumnus Brendon Todd, the 2014 Byron Nelson champion, co-medaled with Charlie Danielson in the qualifier.
Number of European Tour titles in his career, all in his native India, for S.S.P. Chawrasia, who will be the defending champion in the Hero Indian Open that begins today at DLF Golf and Country Club's Gary Player Course in New Delhi. No European Tour player has won his first four events in his home nation.
Withdrawn: After 10 holes of the Valspar Championship pro-am Wednesday, Charl Schwartzel, who was hit in the left wrist by a shot from one of his amateur partners. Schwartzel, the Valspar's defending champion, said the ball ricocheted off a tree on the first hole at Innisbrook Resort's Copperhead Course, so he reflexively moved his arms below his waist to protect himself. During the ensuing holes, Schwartzel said that his hand swelled and eventually went numb, so he pulled out. Schwartzel planned to treat the injury with ice and painkillers and be ready when play begins this morning. He will be one of the dew sweepers. Schwartzel, the 2011 Masters champion, is in the 7:56 a.m. time off the 10th tee, with two other major champions, Henrik Stenson and Bubba Watson (bit.ly/1igGskv).
Srixon, Cleveland Golf and XXIO congratulated staff player Inbee Park for her victory Sunday in the HSBC Women's Champions in Singapore. Park closed with a course-record 8-under 64 at Sentosa Golf Club to erase a three-stroke deficit and win in her second LPGA start since a six-month hiatus because of an injured thumb. Srixon also congratulated staff player Dean Burmester for his victory in the European Tour's Tshwane Open in Waterkloof, South Africa. Burmester played the Srixon Z-star XV golf ball.

We advise you to prepare, for example, cutlets «Turtles».
They include the kids' favorite sausages, so this dish certainly will have children to taste.
● 300-400 g of meat minced meat,
● 5 children's sausages,
● Cheese sandwich in plates,
● Salt pepper,
● Several pieces of cloves or black pepper for decoration,
● Lettuce leaves for filing.
Cut the sausage along into two halves, then across.
On the one hand, we make two incisions with a knife. Four «paws» are obtained.
The same is done with two sausages. The remaining sausages are cut into three parts: the ends of sausages are the «heads» of two turtles, and the middle is «tails». On each «head» we make a horizontal incision — this is the future «mouth».
Minced salt and pepper, we form cutlets.
We stick in them «paws», «tail», «head», from a carnation or black pepper we make eyes.
We pass to the shell.
We cut the plates of cheese into strips and put them on the cutlet as a mesh — the «back» of the turtles.
We put our cutlets in the oven 180 ° C for 30-35 minutes.
As soon as the cheese starts to bake, cover the cutlets with foil. Minutes for 5 before the end of baking, remove the foil to give the cheese brown.
Hot cutlets are laid out on the greens and immediately fed to the table.
Bon Appetit!!!

When the great composer Henri Mancini turned sixty-five, his daughter, Felice, composed a little musical birthday card and sang it in tribute to her father. It goes like this:
"Sometimes-not often enough-we reflect upon the good things, and our thoughts always center around those we love. And I think about those people who mean so much to me; who, for so many years have made me so very happy. And I think about the times I have forgotten to say, 'Thank You!,' and just how much I love them."
Before I get to the point of letting "so many years" go by and the times I may forget to say, "Thank You!" Let me say it now. THANK YOU!! THANK YOU to all of you who have made Denise and I feel so welcome in Benton. Thank you for the great things you have done and the small things you have done that have had a great impact on us. I do not dare try to name all of you and for fear of leaving someone out, I will not mention names, but you know who you are.
Those who have prayed during our transition, those who have cooked for us, those who have allowed us into their hearts, and those who worked and sweated to get things ready for us. You have come to mean so much to Denise and I in such a short time that we can hardly wait to see what God has in store for us and we all grow towards Christ and make God known in our church, in our lives, and in our world.

The Debian project recently announced a security issue in their OpenSSL implementation that causes the generation of weak cryptographic keys. This also affects Linux distributions derived from Debian, e.g., Ubuntu.
Although Blue Coat products are not derived from Debian (and do not have the Debian-specific OpenSSL error), the security of Blue Coat products can be affected if weak keys have been imported, for example as an ssh client key or an externally generated certificate. Note that keys generated on Blue Coat products are not at risk, only keys generated on vulnerable Debian-based systems and imported onto Blue Coat products need to be replaced. So, for example, ssh client keys on ProxySG might need to be replaced, but the ssh host key on ProxySG does not. Blue Coat Systems, Inc. suggests that customers include their Blue Coat products in the list of systems that should be considered in following the remediation procedures announced by the Debian project.
