Chris Paul needs to abandon the Los Angeles Clippers and head east
Chris Paul is flirting with the title of greatest failure in NBA history — but he can flip the script with one bold decision this summer.
Paul is a one of the game's very best, in his or any other generation, to be sure. Yet no other superstar has come up quite as short in big moments as the Los Angeles Clippers point guard. Actually, that's an understatement. As you likely know, Paul's deepest foray into the playoffs came in 2014, when the Clippers lost in six games in the Western Conference semifinals to the Oklahoma City Thunder. He's never seen a conference final, let alone the NBA Finals, which is the single harshest and most accurate criticism against Paul as one of the all-time greats.
He's a fantastic point guard, but Paul has to account for the Clippers' disappointments as the leader of his franchise. Too often, he's the one who chokes in the clutch during the postseason. He's the one seemingly incapable of elevating his teammates. And he's the one who can't stop arguing with refs, giving everyone else license to whine. The team's failings are his, through and through.
Yet there is no better answer moving forward. As good as the Clippers have played at full strength this season, they're a step or two behind the Rockets and the Spurs. Even Russell Westbrook's Thunder conceivably could knock off Paul & Co. in a best-of-7 series. And if L.A. should have the misfortune of running into the Warriors prior to the conference finals … well, let's just move on before this becomes a eulogy.
To be fair, Paul's recent injury exacerbated any existing issues for Los Angeles this season, and Blake Griffin's surgery didn't help matters, either. Then again, why single out the trees when the forest is such a disaster?
The Clippers are who they are with or without a Paul injury. Los Angeles has neither the assets to acquire reinforcements nor a GM savvy enough to swing a lopsided move (unless Phil Jackson really wants to help facilitate a CP3-Carmelo Anthony pairing). Without a major change, Paul will go down as the NBA's best ever player to fail to even whiff the Finals. We might as well start carving that epitaph on his Hall of Fame plaque.
Unless, that is, he decides enough is enough.
In one huge, NBA-altering free agency choice, Paul could all but guarantee a spot in next year's conference finals — if he's willing to take his talents to the Eastern Conference.
First, let's quickly pay lip service to the best current non-Cleveland teams in the East to get them out of the way. The Raptors are fine, and the Celtics finer, truly. Isaiah Thomas is an offensive god. Kyle Lowry and DeMar DeRozan count themselves among the best guards in modern basketball, yadda yadda yadda. Hooray! Yet neither team is a real playoff threat as currently constructed. Toronto falls apart beyond Lowry and DeRozan, and we'll only worry about the Celtics if and when they package some of their assets for a second offensive star and a big guy who can rebound.
The Celtics and Raptors are good teams that aspire to greatness — nothing more. Beyond that? The conference is ripe for the picking, should a superstar be so bold as to relocate. Paul wouldn't make an Eastern team a true challenger to LeBron James' Cavaliers, but his presence would turn one of the conference's also-rans into the clear-cut second-best team on the King's side of the bracket.
No longer would Paul's legacy depend on the coin-flip chance that he might squeeze through the incredibly difficult Western Conference to the semifinals. He could make his own destiny in the East.
The question, though, is where.
There is the obvious option: a "Superfriends" reunion in the Big Apple.
The New York Knicks could make room for Paul this summer with just a few simple moves. Renounce Derrick Rose, do the same with Brandon Jennings, and make a small trade here or there, and the max deal is on the table. With Paul, Carmelo Anthony, Kristaps Porzingis, and Joakim Noah (probably, anyway, unless the Knicks can trade him), you have the second-best core in the conference — two veteran superstars, an up-and-coming unicorn, and a rim protector to boot.
And at that point, you're banking on the present, not the future, so you have the option to move future draft picks to improve the roster for the here and now. Who cares about a first-round pick when a date with LeBron is on the line?
If we dare to dream big, maybe Paul and the Knicks could even take down James and make the Finals. No, really! Not in 2017, or in 2018, or … okay, maybe not ever on this planet. Fine. But if LeBron's grand social experiment in Cleveland fails, someone in the East will have to pick up the slack. Why not CP3, Melo and Kristaps Porzingis*? Stranger things have happened.
*And … maybe Dwyane Wade, while we're at it? We might as well shoot for the moon.
To those who would argue a move to the weaker conference would taint Paul's legacy, we have a simple rebuttal. NBA diehards always talk about how whichever player saves New York will be regaled as a basketball legend — the savior of the Mecca.
Paul could rewrite his reputation, the future of the NBA (imagine Griffin, turn, exercising his option and joining Russell Westbrook with the Thunder), and the Knicks' legacy in one swoop of the pen come July, or he can keep trying to drag the Clippers through hell.
The choice is yours, CP3. Think about it.

'Tis the season - Holiday time is upon us for sure! The tree and decorations have gone up. The winter weather has made its way here. From all these things I was inspired to create this little paper banner to make a statement.
For this project I once again used paper pulp and a cookie cutter as a mold to shape the mittens. You can refer for an earlier post where I used the same method to create individual paper shapes, here is the link to that post- Flying Bats
After the process of forming the mitten shapes, I applied a texture paint that resembles snow to the top edge of each mitten. When that was dry, I added some sparkle with a glitter paint. Letters were die-cut from white paper to spell out the greeting. A bit of glitter glue was also added to the front surface of each letter. When dry, the letters are glued onto the mittens. Attach each mitten onto a cord of choice with mini wooden clothespins. This simple banner, made from paper pulp, is a sweet display for somewhere in your house or to give as a little gift. What better place to display it, but by hanging it on the old vintage coat rack in the front hall.
Make some handmade paper for holiday cards or gift tags. Cast some paper pulp with molds or your own deckles, like a cookie cutter for holiday shapes. Try it and have some fun!

Many people are aware of the strong digestive enzymes in the fruit of the papaya. Much less well known are the intense digestive enzymes contained in the leaves.
Papaya leaves have Acetogenins, that have been shown to have dramatic biological activity against worms, parasites, some viruses, fungi and cancer cell lines.
The therapeutic effects include digestion of potentially toxic waste, killing off Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori bacteria), and breaking down protein and carbohydrates to sooth the gastrointestinal (G.I.) tract and bowels. The digestion and elimination of potentially toxic wastes are essential in maintaining good overall health.
Strong digestive enzymes support immune functions and detox. Indigestion, acid reflux and heart burn are relieved as the enzymes in papaya leaves digest potentially toxic waste and kill H. pylori bacteria that cause inflammation to sooth the GI tract and bowels.

A British euphemism, for having sex in semi public places, like up on lookout ridge, being parked in a car in the woods, or also in viewing such activity. A sort of term, that encompasses exhibitionism, and voyeurism.
Supposed term was derived from men who would stalk (dog) couples who would park, or go into secluded spots, to engage in sex.
Others contend it derived from men who around bushes, claiming they were merely 'walking their dog' and not spying on the couple, though they didn't actually a dog.
Can refer to a form of stalking, that is however actually encouraged by many.
The Internet, text messaging, has led to an explosion of this particular type of sexual antics, not just in the UK where it was believed to have been started, but elsewhere, including North America.
In American English, the term may have a negative meaning, or be construed as being derogatory.
No such negative meaning is imparted in the British use of the term.
POODLING is a humorous take off on the word dogging, in that it refers to a couple engaging in sex, in a luxury vehicle, such as say a Rolls Royce versus a Volkswagen Beetle.

Aileen Riggin Soule, a diver and swimmer who at age 14 became the youngest American Olympic gold medalist and later became the oldest living American female gold medalist, died Thursday in a nursing home in Honolulu. She was 96.
At the 1920 Olympics in Antwerp, Belgium, Riggin won the first gold medal awarded in women's springboard diving and became, at 4 feet 7 inches and 65 pounds, the smallest American Olympic champion. In the 1924 Olympic Games in Paris, she became the only woman to win medals in swimming and diving in the same Olympics, taking the silver medal in springboard diving and the bronze medal in the 100-meter backstroke.
In 1974, in one of the many articles she wrote on her career, she said:
''My most unforgettable experience would have to be as the youngest member of the first American women's Olympic swimming and diving team in 1920. I was a very small 14-year-old. Until two months before the tryouts, we had no idea of the dives required, and some were entirely new. Lacking precedent, we learned as we went along, yet practice was uncertain as the boards were not standardized.
''When the book of rules arrived, it was in French and sent us to the dictionary to discover what a 'coup de pied à la lune' was. It turned out to be a gainer [a dive now known as a reverse]. There were also 12 dives instead of the usual 10, two of which to be drawn from a hat just before the contest.''
Last-minute preparation was the story of her career. She was born May 2, 1906, in Newport, R.I., and reared in New York City. Her father was a Navy paymaster, and she traveled extensively with her parents.Continue reading the main story
She learned to swim at age 6, in Manila Bay. In 1918, she came down with influenza during the epidemic that swept the United States during World War I. On her doctor's recommendation that she swim for her health, she joined the celebrated Women's Swimming Association team in New York.
In 1919, when she took up diving, there were no indoor pools with diving boards available to women. Many people thought women should not dive at all because it would injure their health.
The only place to practice in the metropolitan New York area was a tidal pool on Long Island, an hour from the city. When the tide rose, the board was about 10 feet above the surface, about the height of a 3-meter springboard. When the tide was out, the drop was 14 feet, so the divers tried to time their practices for high tide in warm weather on weekends.
Even with those poor training conditions, Riggin finished second in the United States Olympic trials behind Helen Wainwright, who was also 14. But until the day before the boat sailed for Antwerp, they were not sure they would be able to compete in the Olympics because many officials did not want women, much less two 14-year-olds. But because Riggin and Wainwright had also made the Olympic team as swimmers, they went.
For 13 days, they sailed on a battered military transport ship, where training was a nightmare. Riggin recalled: ''I remember the javelin throwers could tie a rope around their javelin, throw them out to sea and pull them back. The shooters used clay pigeons until they ran out. After a while, the sea gulls were looking pretty good.''
In a tiny canvas tank filled with seawater, the swimmers, one at a time, swam 5 to 10 minutes, held in place by a belt around the waist. Divers could not train at all.''
In Antwerp, a city still recovering from World War I, the swimmers and divers competed in a moat-like canal. Ethelda Bleibtrey, the American who won gold medals in all three women's races, told King Albert I of Belgium, ''I swam in mud, not water.''
The diving board was a plank with no spring, and, Riggin said, ''the water was black and icy cold.'' Without a coach there, the American women swept the medals, with Wainwright winning the silver and Thelma Payne the bronze. After that, American women won every gold medal in Olympic springboard diving until 1960.
In 1924, Riggin was an Olympian again, joining American teammates like Johnny Weissmuller, who later gained fame playing Tarzan, and a Yale rower named Benjamin Spock.
''Being 18 and being in Paris was wonderful,'' she said. ''The sun was shining, we read Hemingway and we were just carried away.''
She was in the first underwater swimming film in 1922 and the first slow-motion swimming and diving films in 1923. She turned professional in 1925, giving diving exhibitions and swimming demonstrations in England and Wales.
In 1926, she played three weeks at the Hippodrome in New York, diving into a glass tank, into six feet of water. After her former swimming teammate Gertrude Ederle became the first woman to swim the English Channel, Riggin and Ederle toured for six months. In 1937, at the Cleveland Exposition, Riggin helped organize and star in the first Billy Rose Aquacade.
She toured the world, appeared in movies and wrote a sports column for The New York Evening Post and articles for national magazines. In 1967, she was inducted into the International Swimming Hall of Fame. She never stopped swimming or lecturing or writing about it, and at 85 she broke six world records for her age group in the world masters championships.
She and her husband, Howard Soule, who died several years ago, moved to Hawaii in 1957 and lived in a Diamond Head apartment in Honolulu. Even into her 90's, she swam three miles a week in the ocean.
She is survived by a daughter, Yvonne May of Zurich; a stepdaughter, Patti Anderson of Honolulu; and two stepsons, Bruce Soule of Newport Beach, Calif., and Wallace Soule of Bakersfield, Calif.
In 1996, when asked if she had any goals in addition to attending the Atlanta Olympics, she replied: ''Yes. I'd like to continue -- life in general, that is.''Continue reading the main story

Shelley's Frankenstein also feature
The British Isles' mightiest novelists are women. So reveals BBC Culture's critics' poll of the 100 greatest British novels, which places George Eliot's Middlemarch at number one, followed by Virginia Woolf's To the Lighthouse and Mrs Dalloway. Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre, Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights, and Mary Shelley's Frankenstein also feature in the top 10, leaving room for just two male authors to muscle in: Charles Dickens with Great Expectations, Bleak House and David Copperfield, and William Makepeace Thackeray with Vanity Fair
Look more closely, and you'll find that books by women account for fully half of the poll's top 20 titles. Scroll all the way down to 100, and they make up nearly 40 per cent – a notable achievement given that our critics have favoured works that have already stood the test of time, and were written back when it took infinitely more pluck and grit for a woman to break into print than her brother. (Middlemarch may occupy the top spot, but let's not forget that Mary Ann Evans felt obliged to publish it under a man's name.) Almost a third of the poll's titles date from the 18th and 19th Centuries, and a further 22 were published before 1950
Women account for half of the poll's top 20 titles
Only 13 novels originate in our own century, and of these, the majority are by women. Two of the three newest, all published in 2012, are by women
: Ali Smith's There but for the, and Zadie Smith's NW (the third is Edward St Aubyn's Patrick Melrose novels). Women also account for two of the poll's three best-represented living authors: along with Alan Hollinghurst, Zadie Smith and Jeanette Winterson both have two books apiece. And which author wins overall in terms of the number of titles they've had chosen? Again, women dominate thanks to Woolf and Austen, who join Dickens with four titles each
Peters's personal charm and exquisite charm
According to research into voting at the last election the answer is a resounding yes.
Victoria University political specialist Hilde Coffe studied gender-based voting patterns at the 2011 polls and found no differences between the sexes in party preference - except for New Zealand First.
She discovered "substantially fewer" woman gave their vote to Mr Peters' party, in keeping with global trends showing women are more likely to support left-wing parties.
However, when it came to the other parties, Kiwi women were no more likely to vote for Labour or the Greens, or less likely to vote for National, suggesting something else is at work to turn women off New Zealand First.
Dr Coffe also analysed the so-called "John Key factor" to find out whether support and sympathy for the prime minister specifically as leader could resolve this puzzle.
But it seems women like him just as much as men.
"In fact, women and men were found to be equally supportive of John Key as prime minister and the rationale behind party preferences turned out to be quite similar for both men and women," she said.
Studies of elections in 1981 and 1990 also found no substantial gender differences, but previous research showed women voted Labour in greater numbers in 1996 election, when Helen Clark was leader.
Australian women showed the same sympathy and support for a female leader at the 2010 election, electing Julia Gillard as prime minister, Dr Coffe said.
Having a female co-leader in Metiria Turei did not give New Zealand's Green Party the same advantage, however, the researcher said.
The research is published in the latest issue of Political Science, New Zealand's professional political science journal.
The president of Uruguay Jose Mujica
In a radio presentation, Mujica talked about the close links between the two countries, and emphasised that no event or person "can uproot our common history".
Mujica made no reference to his remarks broadcast live Thursday at the start of a news conference while he was speaking privately with another official.
"This old hag is worse than the one-eyed guy," Mujica was caught saying, without realising that the microphones were on
It was a clear reference to Kirchner and her late husband, former president Nestor Kirchner, who had a lazy eye and was nicknamed "El Tuerto" (the one-eyed guy).
"'El Tuerto' was more of a politician, this one is stubborn," Mujica said.
He also had a catty comment on Kirchner's gift to Pope Francis: "To an Argentine Pope, who has lived for 77 years, are you going to explain to him what... mate and a flask are?"
The reference was to Kirchner's gift a gourd to drink mate, the herbal infusion popular in the Argentina and Uruguay, to the newly elected Pope
Chengdu pambassador
Word of Mujica's slip-up shut down the website of Uruguay's El Observador newspaper, which recorded historic traffic, according to the outlet's digital content manager. The audio had also been broadcast live on the president's official website.
One hour after his remarks Mujica told the online edition of another newspaper, La Republica, that he had been talking about Lula and Brazil, and that he had not spoken "publicly" about Argentina.
"I'm not going to play ball with them or go around the world clarifying anything. They can invent all the nonsense that they want," Mujica snapped

The comments, however, went viral on social media.
Argentine Foreign Minister Hector Timerman on Thursday slammed the remarks as "unacceptable" and "denigrating," adding that they offended the memory of the deceased
Claire Hsu
An official protest was delivered in the form of a note to Uruguay's ambassador to Argentina, Guillermo Pomi.
Nestor Kirchner was Argentina's president from 2003 to 2007. His wife, Cristina, succeeded him and won re-election in 2011. Nestor Kirchner was a key adviser to his wife up to his sudden death of a heart attack in 2010

Students' Awareness and Requirements of Mobile Learning Services in the Higher Education Environment
Naji Shukri Alzaza and Abdul Razak Yaakub
DOI : 10.3844/ajebasp.2011.95.100
American Journal of Economics and Business Administration
Volume 3, Issue 1
Pages 95-100
Problem statement: M-learning is considered as the next generation of e-learning using mobile technologies. Students' awareness of such technology is one of the most focuses for success adoption. This study aims to investigate students' awareness and requirements of mobile learning services among Malaysian students in the higher education environment. Approach: The study found that the higher education environment now has the necessary mobile technology infrastructure to utilize m-learning. Results: Moreover, the results show that students have adequate knowledge and good awareness to use such technology in their education environment. Regarding the university mobile applications that students would like to use individually through mobile technologies, the exam result and course registration were the highest in rank, followed by calendar and schedule services. The highest limitations were the cost of transaction and slow data exchange with networks, followed by concerns over confidentiality of personal information. Conclusion: Future research should be conducted with a big number of respondents to ensure the representative and conclusive finding.

You will encounter a variety of creatures along your way, from roaches to huge scorpions, lizards and even small hamsters! Apart from living beings, you will see a variety of complex mechanisms. To overcome snow, forests, deserts and underground areas, you will require a good weapon. Though you already have that - a well-sharpened blade that will slice (almost) every monster.

If you are adding the ALM products to inventory it's important that you don't use the maps that extract the quantity as decimals.
So you understand the difference I have attached 2 numbered screenshots;
Number 1 screenshot shows you the correct way. You can see on the 1st line the qty on the invoice is showing as 2 and the pack qty is 24 and our map calculates the qty as 48 (2 cartons with 24 bottles in each carton = 48)
Then on the 3rd line the qty on the invoice is showing as .4 and the pack qty is 12 and our map calculates the qty as 4 (4 bottles from a carton that contains 12 bottles in each carton)
Number 2 screenshot shows you how it is extracting directly as a decimal as the invoice shows. You cannot use the maps that do this if you want the correct quantities.
It cannot be extracted as .4 because this actually means it is 4/10 which is not correct because ALM is not providing the .4 as a fraction or decimal, because as a fraction of the carton this would mean 4.8 bottles.
What ALM are saying is they are providing you with 4 bottles only, from a case that would contain 12.
If you are uncertain which maps to choose from please feel free to call us.
FYI: When your bills have doubled up lines for free products like the yellow highlighted lines in the image below, you will need to edit them slightly so you have the correct quantities to send to your inventory system. Click here to see how exactly how to do this.
If the images are too small you can click 'CTRL and +' to zoom your screen or you can click on the paperclip attachments at the bottom of this screen.
If you need to map ALM credit notes click here for instructions.
If you can't see the images clearly, then please download them from the bottom of this page, then zoom in.

Good quality air ensures a comfortable atmosphere and influences the productivity levels of workers.
If you are a facility manager, it is your duty to make sure that employers are able to provide a conducive work environment for their workers. Good quality air ensures a comfortable atmosphere and influences the productivity levels of workers. It is also good for their health. If your commercial HVAC system is not accomplishing this, here are some potential issues and solutions.
The Ducts May Be Cracked
If there is a difference of temperature in different regions of the building it may be due to inconsistent air flow. This often happens when the ducts have cracks.
Cracked ducts can also be harmful to health. They produce tiny pieces of fiberglass insulation. These bits may be propelled into the air stream by the blower. If the debris is inhaled it can cause respiratory issues. Additionally, these particles may settle down on your HVAC's electric components and cause a breakdown.
Call a St. Louis HVAC technician and seal the cracks as soon as the problem arises.
Filters May Be Dirty
If you find that the air in your office is musty or has an unpleasant odor, your air filter may be dirty. Another reason for this could be that there is a gas leak. Or else, there may be overheated parts, condensed water may have accumulated, or debris from the outside air may have melted on the system's heat exchanger.
You should make it a point to replace the filters every month.
The Size Of The System May Not Be Appropriate
When installing a commercial HVAC system, you should consider the size of the building and choose the equipment which has the appropriate capacity needed for the building. If the capacity is more or less, the quality of the air will not be at the optimum level. There will either be insufficient ventilation or too much airflow. This can make the work environment seem windy.
A Broken Part May Be Stuck in the System
If you start hearing rattling noises coming from your HVAC system, check if a broken part is caught in it. The sound can be very loud and disturb or distract workers. If you notice or hear of any such problem, seek professional help.
The Drains May Be Blocked
If your system is not performing optimally, the drains may be blocked. If the drain pipe is blocked due to the accumulation of dirt or debris, the water from the condenser is not drained out. This may cause water damage to the system. Therefore, you should check regularly and keep the pipe clear.
Check the Capacitors and Fuses
The capacitors are very important to start and run the HVAC system. The fuses in the system prevent overheating. So, if the system stops working abruptly you should check the circuit breaker.
Regular Maintenance
Problems are frequent when commercial HVAC systems are not maintained properly. Simple routine checks by a professional St. Louis HVAC Company can help to make the system function optimally. Give Hely Heating & Air Conditioning a call 24/7 at (636) 305-9555.

Health Science
The BSc (Hons) in Sports Coaching & Performance helped Seán improve his lap time and develop the knowledge and skill set to confidently coach others
Seán Hahessy, a BSc (Hons) in Sports Coaching & Performance graduate from Carrick-on-Suir, County Tipperary, got involved in the Paralympic sport in 2015 when he was invited to a training camp in Portugal to try out as a sighted pilot. He wasn't daunted by the prospect as he feels he was chosen for his height and strength.
"Knowing they chose me for a reason was half the battle. I spent three days on the tandem and really loved it," Seán says.
Seán and his partner Damien Vereker from Waterford rode together in the Rio Paralympics 2016. Seán now rides with Peter Ryan who is also from Tipperary. "The proximity makes training a little easier," Seán says.
"Being a para-cycling pilot is very satisfying on many levels. There's a level of trust and companionship which you don't get as much on a bike yourself. There's also the sense that you are doing something good. The para-cyclists I ride with wouldn't be able to cycle if there were no pilots available," Seán says.
Enjoying the ride
The Tipp man is still cycling solo and is going to see how that career progresses. "When I was in school, I was determined to go pro. I'm more relaxed about that now and I'm just concentrating on working hard, pushing as hard as I can and see what comes of that," Seán says.
Complementing ambition
"Even in school, I was always going to do a degree. I knew that I needed a backup plan if a professional career didn't work out for me. The ideal choice was something which complemented my cycling ambitions while giving me future options and the Sports Coaching and Performance programme at WIT fit that bill perfectly," Sean says.
Seán hasn't looked back. He wanted to get as much out of the degree to improve his own performance on the bike as well as develop a skill set to coach others. "I can definitely do both", he says. "Over the four years I've learned so much about managing training, fitness, and nutrition specifically for the bike which can only help my bike times. I also have developed a skill set to coach others although, laughing he says that coaching cycling can be tough as it requires 100,000 cycles with the person you are working with."
Securing a job
While balancing his solo and tandem bike careers, he also has a full time job. Getting the job didn't seem much of an obstacle for him, saying "I just asked! A1 Coaching is one of the biggest coaching companies in the country and I really wanted to work there. Their focus is on cycling and triathlon, they were a natural fit for me."

Ultra Elvis
Alaskan Noble Companion Dog, Elvis, is the first dog of any breed to complete an Ultra Marathon competition (100 mile race) with his owner!
Elvis is from the 2011 Fresca/Starbuck litter. He carries his own water, protects his owner in the desert and tracks to find the correct path in the sand if there is more than one choice. He chooses the freshest path that has been run by another runner, and he has never been wrong! Elvis runs totally off leash and recalls off wildlife.

A Job Well Done
5 comments:
well done on your efforts, good to see the weather was kind to you, as i was working on that day i could not get along, perhaps the next time.ReplyDelete
all the best
A good job, Well done ! I try to keep the area clear on the west side between merryton and bailey bridge.The more people who don't tolerate litter the better.ReplyDelete
Thanks to both of you. It does seem to be up to those of us that care about our surroundings to clear up after those that don't! And maybe the less litter there is, the more people will take care to keep it tidy (well, we can hope can't we!).ReplyDelete
PS - a friend of mine has spotted Swallows - let me know when you see them.
Lots of Sand Martins flying around at the MerrytonReplyDelete
Bridge area today.
Thanks Jingle - I'm rushing down there now!ReplyDelete

Every smallest thing in our daily life has it's own time to come forward with or to showcase itself how hard we try.
I sometimes believe what few people said to me when I was very young that GOD has written your fate and someone up is watching your every step. I personally feel, it's the choices we make and not what was written. Life always gives you choices to make, its matter of only looking a bit further for the other option. There are many such occasions which wherein i felt i should have done that thing in different way but then realize that i have traveled long way further to undo. I'm sure many of you had this experience in your life.
So instead of waiting for right time, it's better we move towards the right time by doing what best we do. TRY!

I've started to use the excellent iPhone app Next to keep track of my expenses. My bank has a utility that automatically tracks every purchase I make, but for me, being a notorious money spender, it's kind of a therapeutic thing to be forced every time I buy something to actually acknowledge the expense and not just buying without thinking. It's also a great way of keeping track of what kind of things I spend my money on.
SpyderGallery color calibration for iPad
Trying to display color corrected images on an iPad
A couple of weeks ago i bought the Spyder4Elite so I could color calibrate my Retina MacBook Pro 15" and my Asus PA246 24" monitor. And the calibration works really well.
There is no way of color calibrate your iPad, because Apple has not given developers the ability to create or change the calibration of the screen. But Datacolor, the makers of the Spyder4 line of calibrators has solved the problem by making an app that connects to your Mac via your network and use the calibrator to calibrate their app called SpyderGallery. This enables you to see calibrated versions of your pictures inside the viewer. But the calibrated data only works in the SpyderGallery app.
Editorial iPad App Writing
Editorial iOS Markdown Text Editor
So I found a new favorite iPad text editor called Editorial. After reading Federico Viticci's great review of Editorial on macstories.net I bought the app, because the creator Ole Zorn wrote one of my other favorite apps Pythonista. And Editorial is amazing!
pogo Connect Stylus for iPad Review
I've must have gone through at least five different pens for iPad during the last couple of years. The Pogo Sketch with it's flaky foam tip, a cheap Targus stylus that have a tendency to wear out rather quickly, rendering it useless. But when the Pogo Connect stylus by Ten One Design showed up with its pressure sensitive stylus, I knew I needed to get one. So this christmas I gave it to myself as a gift. Yes, I had been a good boy.
Blogsy blog app for iPad with potential but has some bugs and problems
I really like the Blogsy blog app, but it have some annoying bugs and problems. Before the latest version, every time you made changes it added a lot of cruft in the HTML, specifically Apple span code that messed up the posts. So to my delight the latest version 3.3 fixed this problem. Unfortunately it seems a new bug has crept in. When editing old posts, it makes a duplicate copy of the post. If this bugs could be fixed, it would really be the best blog tool available. Because I prefer to write on my iPad vs my computer. hopefully this will be fixed soon and I'll be in blogging heaven.
Update: Haven't been able to reproduce the duplication error. There is a bug where where the paragraph button isn't working as it should. Will be fixed in the next version apparently. here's an update, 3.3.1 coming soon.

Last week didn't work out so well. I plumb forgot to post the meal plan. We ate leftovers, freezer meals, and take out. Yes, take out. I can't believe how busy the past few weeks have been. I'm falling so far behind that I wonder if I will ever catch up!!
So before I get too far behind on everything else, here's the meals this week.
Monday: Borscht (recipe here.)
Tuesday: Beet greens (recipe here.)
Wednesday: Dinner @ church.
Thursday: A quickie dinner of something pulled from the freezer.
Friday, Kids' night: Breakfast for dinner: fruit, eggses, and muffins this week.
Saturday: Spaghetti. Jarred sauce with a can of mushrooms, black olives, and a bunch of ground meat thrown in for good measure.
Sunday: Yogurt baked chicken (recipe below) with pasta side dish and random veggie.
Org Junkie's got some other recipes and meal ideas and organizing tips, go see her!
Yogurt Baked Chicken (recipe from stonyfield.com) (Makes 4 servings)
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup Stonyfield Organic Plain Yogurt (or whatever brand of yogurt you happen to have around!)
2 cups panko (Japanese bread crumbs)
salt and pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Season yogurt liberally with salt and pepper. Place chicken breasts in yogurt, coat well then remove. Wipe excess yogurt from chicken and coat with bread crumbs.
Place in an oven-safe baking dish and bake for 30 minutes. Juices from chicken should run clear and crust should be golden brown.

"I'm good at fighting, watch out!" – Salma Hayek on doing her own stunts in The Hitman's Bodyguard
Salma Hayek stars in the new action comedy The Hitman's Bodyguard. She plays Sonya, the estranged wife of Samuel L. Jackson. The majority of her scenes are filmed in prison, and much of the dialogue was improvised by Hayek, and she even did her own fighting and stunt work. "We didn't rehearse the day before, I didn't prepare but guess what, I did it," says Hayek on her fighting prep. "It was so humiliating for them to see the 'old lady', so I said 'No', and my stunts were amazing."
The Hitman's Bodyguard stars Ryan Reynolds as Michael Bryce, a bodyguard who finds himself down in the dumps after he failed to protect an important government official who was shot dead. Two years later, he is protecting shady executives and is living in depression. The villainous Vladislav Dukhovich (Gary Oldman) is on trial for his war crimes and the only man who can bring him to justice is the hitman Darius Kincaid (Samuel L. Jackson). Bryce is hired to protect Kincaid, making him a "hitman's bodyguard". Both Bryce and Kincaid go on a road trip the leads to hilarious fights and sing-a-longs on the way to protect the world from an evil leader. Kincaid's wife Sonya (Salma Hayek) is in prison and he goes off course to see her.
Salma Hayek starred in two other big films this year and has more on the way. The Oscar nominated actress was in the hit comedy 'How to Be a Latin Lover' and 'Beatriz at Dinner'. She also lent her voice to 'Sausage Part'y and will star in the short film 'The 11th Hour', written and directed by Jim Sheridan. She will star opposite Alec Baldwin in next year's anticipated comedy 'Drunk Parents'.
FilmInside's reporter Rachel Kasuch sat down with Salma Hayek to talk about the making of The Hitman's Bodyguard. They discuss stunt work, stalkers, and whether there was a time when she wished she had a bodyguard and didn't. "I forget that I'm famous," admits Hayek. "Sometime people come over and go 'Hi!', and I go 'Oh my god where do I know this person from', and then they start talking about the movies and I go 'Oh I don't know this person at all'." To see more about what Salma Hayek has to say about 'The Hitman's Bodyguard' watch the exclusive video interview below.

Friends aim to make building fit for future use.
As part of the effort to restore Sutton Coldfield Town Hall, Sutton Coldfield Arts and Recreational Trust, the managing charity trust, are launching a new Friends of the Town Hall initiative to raise funds for the historic, locally listed venue.
Sutton Coldfield's landmark Town Hall, built in 1865, was recently taken over from the city council by the Sutton Coldfield Arts and Recreational Trust, a team of local Arts and Heritage enthusiasts. Since the Town Hall was faced with closure, its staff have created a jam-packed calendar of events from musicals to comedy, from classical concerts to tribute nights and now, fundraisers.
This inaugural fundraiser will see the versatile venue's curtain open to an original Al Jolson and Frank Sinatra musical that first premiered in 2010 to great acclaim. Branded a "refreshing, slick piece of theatre," Ain't No Angels, a show by Role-Play Productions and written by Ken Wragg, pits the two warring giants of the entertainment world against one another whilst stuck in purgatory waiting to discover whether they get to go up"or down. With a narrative that looks back over each of the icons' lives, this is a story told to absolute perfection and is most definitely not one to miss!
For this fundraiser, fifty percent of the proceeds of Ain't No Angels ticket sales will go straight to the Town Hall Charity trust to help facilitate much-needed improvements to the building to provide a valuable asset for Sutton Coldfield and the wider area. Money raised from the Friends of the Town Hall schemes will go towards projects such as updating the toilet facilities, refreshing the décor and revamping the dressing rooms to ensure the Town Hall remains a vibrant and inviting venue for many years to come.
Tickets for this production are now on sale, starting at just £14. For more information, contact the Town Hall Box Office on 0121 296 9543.

Hello 2014!
It's been an interesting transition into the new year to say the least. While we got to work on a beautiful wedding in Santa Barbara, the day we were coming back my step-father fractured his leg/ankle and then shortly after that my grandmother fractured her elbow. So it's been loads of fun for people, obviously.
But I digress, all of our wedding prep has definitely put me behind in the Inspiration Monday department. I am here with a new one though. It's about the always fave: WEDDING TRENDS!!
Overall we're looking at grander, sparkli-er (I'm making up my own words here, people. Follow along…), and romantic-ier (see?!) weddings than before. Vintage is sticking around, as is the whole Roaring Twenties/Great Gatsby thing. Add some peonies, candles, a little Instagram and that's kind of where we're headed. It's a lot, I know, but don't make me reference the 90's or we'd be in loads of trouble.
This IM post will be super generalized. The IM's to follow will be more in-depth, each with it's own inspiration board so you can see how I view every trend (if you're into that sort of a thing. ;]).
Let's get started…
1. Colors: Blush, Radiant Orchid (Pantone's Color for 2014, y'all!), Gold, Royal/Navy Blue, Gray, Mint
2. Themes: Roaring Twenties/Great Gatsby, Woodland/Garden, 90's
3. Design/Decor: Patterns, Vintage, Glam, Opulent, Candles, Pops of Color, Sparkle, Romance
4. Flowers: Peonies, Garlands
5. Food/Drink: Spicy, Family-Style, Snacks, Seasonal Drinks
6. Invitations: Small, Illustrations, Lace
7. Cake: Sparkly, Seasonal Flavors, Ombré
8. Music: Themed, Ethnic
9. Dresses: Beaded, Jeweled, Dramatic Backs
10. Etc: Photo Booths, All-Night Ragers (j/k…we're looking at after parties), To #Hashtag or To Not Hashtag (i.e. Instagram), Edible Favors, Marquees
Photo Credits: Radiant Orchid Cake / Great Gatsby Make-up / Candles / Peonies / Family-Style Dinner / Illustrated Invites / Sparkly Cake / Mariachis / Dramatic Back Wedding Dress / Marquees
What's your favorite trend for 2014?!

Old Stephanians gather to celebrate college's 128th anniversary
Hugs and smiles, old jokes and endless stories - the grand building of St. Stephen's college lit up with memories as its alumni gathered to celebrate its 128th anniversary Sunday evening - the first time such a celebration took place.india Updated: Feb 02, 2009 12:44 IST
Hugs and smiles, old jokes and endless stories - the grand building of St. Stephen's college lit up with memories as its alumni gathered to celebrate its 128th anniversary Sunday evening - the first time such a celebration took place.
"There are so many memories attached to my college. I lost my first election - the students' union election - here and that actually taught me a lot," Salman Khurshid, Congress leader and an alumni of the college, told IANS.
Reminiscing the days gone by, Khurshid, who passed out of the Stephen's in 1974, said that if one has to compare the college from his time and now, there have been quite a few good changes.
"In my time, the college was not co-educational. Now it is and it's a very good thing. The atmosphere is more relaxed now and the youngsters are a lot more familiar with dealing with relationships," he said.
"Another good change is that the college has now opened its doors to the other backward classes (OBC) and Dalits by putting in place a reservation system. This helps everyone experience this great institution and probably put aside the 'elitist' tag that we are associated with!" added Khurshid, whose son now is a student of the college.
While the Stephen's does have its alumni meet, this is the first time that it celebrated the college's anniversary as the College Day.
"We now plan to make it an annual event. The College Day brings together the old and the new students of the Stephen's and gives them a platform to exchange ideas. It's all about renewal of the institution," college principal Valson Thampu said.
Among the other wellknown alumni present on the occasion were commentator Suresh Tandon, Justice Manmohan Sareen, professor Kuldip Singh and Raja Randhir Singh.
While putting forth his thoughts in a panel discussion on "St. Stephen's yesterday, today and tomorrow", Sareen said that one of the best things about the college is that it instils a sense of belonging in its students, besides the confidence to become go-getters.
"The uniqueness of being a Stephanian is that students here have fire in their bellies to do something. And even as they go ahead in their lives, the sense of belonging to this place remains," he said amid a loud applause.
