Gnome Coloring Pages
Elf, Dwarf, Smurf, Gnome Pictures to Color
Gnomes coloring pages for everyone! If you've seen the Pixar animated 3D film, Gnomeo and Juliet, or the popular Smurfs film, you're probably a fan of this "little folks" art. '
I've been saving links to my favorite dwarf and gnome coloring pages and clip art for a few years, so now seems the time to share my favorite printables.
All the links to gnome printables and Smurf coloring pages are free for personal use - you can print them to color in or you can use the line art to design crafts for your family and friends. Or for yourself.
I love gnome art of all types. I've collected pictures, books and statues of gnomes for years. I use my art prints and digital clip art pictures as inspiration when I draw my own full color illustrations, line drawings and greeting cards. When I spot a little gnome in a garden setting I make sure I catch a photograph before the fellow escapes.
Mushrooms Coloring Page - Keep Out of the Rain
You almost always find mushrooms where gnomes and fairies hang out in the woodlands. They're handy for keeping the wee folk dry during a spring or summer rain shower.
This line art mushrooms drawing is part of the fairy coloring pages collection at LeeHansen.com.
My Daughter and I Love Gnomes - Nana got me hooked on gnomes as a toddler; I passed on the love of garden protectors to my daughter when she was 3
How did this all begin? Well, my grandmother was German and when I was a toddler she spent many nights reading to me from a German storybook filled with darling pictures of fairytale characters. Years later, when I visited my parents who were living in Germany in the late 1970s I fell in love with garden gnomes. All the shops in Mannheim and Frankfurt were selling them, so I bought one for my mother as a Mother's Day gift.
The following Christmas I bought the beautifully illustrated (now a hip boomer classic) book as a gift, and from that point on I just started collecting pictures and figurines.

We Love Garden Gnomes
I've loved gnome art and garden statues since I visited Germany in 1978. Hubby and I went to see the Gnomeo and Juliet animated film for Valentine's Day 2011 ... it was so much fun, and the music is terrific!
My younger daughter shares my affection for gnomes. When she was only 3 years old, she developed a passion for all things gnomey and elven. She started (and still owns today, 30-plus years later) a huge collection of Smurfs and drwarvish toys, artwork and decorations. She's got bolts of fabric with cute little gnome prints; I scanned swatches of the fabrics to make custom lettering for her baby shower invitations.
In addition to her collectibles, she owns a nice assortment of small figurines who watch over her garden (like the guardian in the photo above) - gnomes who tend herbs in flower pots, larger garden gnomes who keep the outdoor play areas safe and happy plus a big collection of gnome holiday ornaments to decorate the family Christmas tree.
Don't be shy - sound off here - Did you find a favorite gnome coloring page here?
Pastiche, I just saw your fairy art and asked about gnomes. Wish I would have seen this first. Love the gnomes!
Very cute, I love Gnomes, Pixies etc, even the Smurfs! I have always wondered if they really did exist in one form or another eons ago. Nicely done, blessed.
What a cute page! I really like it. Thanks for featuring my Trolls lens here too.
I truly enjoy your anecdotes about gnomes. I still feel they are up to something. Nice lens!
Not a gnome lover - but I wouldn't like the little chaps to be gnomeless! Love the books!

Lovely pictures as always! I hope that the rainy season doesn't always get you totally down as the opposite is really the worse proposition. Areas like California or where I am in Texas and further West are in drought conditions with no real relief in sight. Any way, enjoy the rest of the Summer as best you can.ReplyDelete

Hi Scott, Thank you for the comment. Wish I could send some of this rain up your way. PDelete

I think Lake Chapala has the perfect rain season cause it seems most days are gorgeous and the rain is mostly at night time. I think though having a car would be kind of nice during this season for sure. I would have to own a car or I'd feel stuck specially on days when it is raining buckets outside! pam in oregonReplyDelete
HI Pam, Good to hear from you. When it rains buckets during the day, it only lasts about an hour. You can always duck into a restaurant and wait it out. We have excellent bus service here. I also get a lot more exercise without a car. pReplyDelete

George Orwell, the pen name of Eric Arthur Blair, is not typically known as a sci-fi author, his book 1984 changed the world. to the extent that many people say that the fact that a book like 1984 exists is the best guarantee that it will never happen.
I am truly amazed at the number of people who have not read this book, nearly everyone I talk to knows that it is an important book, but there seems to be a consensus that we don't need people to read this book anymore, and in my opinion, nothing could be farther from the truth.

European equity markets rebounded from recent losses and posted fresh gains in today's trading session. The CAC, DAX and IBEX climbed between 0.9% and 1.7%, while the London benchmark equity index rebounded near a 9-week high.
In London, British banks led the equity market higher after Barclays announced a revival plan to boost its operations, part of which includes the setting-up of a "bad bank" and eliminating 19,000 jobs over the next 3 years. Barclays jumped by 7.95%, while Standard Chartered and RBS gained 2.03% and 1.7%, respectively.
On the macroeconomic front, the European Central Bank and the Bank of England kept interest rates unchanged, but ECB President Mario Draghi reported that the central bank is ready for further action in June, if needed.
In the US, weekly jobless claims rose by 319,000 in the week ending May 3, 2014, less than analysts expected, driving the US dollar higher with the USD index trading around 79.3.
LME Copper rebounded in today's session, gaining more than 1% to retest the 6720 area.
Tomorrow, investors will be keeping an eye on the release of the Chinese CPI inflation data as well as Germany's imports and exports figures. In the UK, the release of industrial and manufacturing output data could provide further momentum.

As a demonstration of our product quality, we are trusted by great customers such as BP, ConocoPhillips, Transocean, Seadrill, Shell and Statoil. Read more about our cases below.
Chevron Erskine is an unmanned platform located approximately 150 miles away from the coast of Aberdeen, Scotland. In 2006 Frictape Landing Net followed by Frictape Perimeter Nets were installed to the platform.
Fugro Synergy is Multi-Purpose Drilling, Well Intervention and Geotechnical Vessel. It represents a new generation, high technology drillship built in response to increasing demand for cost effective drilling solutions.
Frictape designed and manufactured Perimeter Safety Nets for Mermaid Siam with a very fast schedule in September 2014. The whole process from the design to the delivery from Finland to United Arab Emirates was completed in two weeks.
In January 2014, four Frictape Service Technicians installed both Frictape Perimeter Nets and Landing Nets on board sister vessels MSV Fennica and Nordica. Installation of the Frictape netting was completed in total of five working days in icy cold conditions in Helsinki and Inkoo, Finland.
The new Frictape Perimeter Safety Nets where recently installed in a very timely manner to Seajacks Zaratan – led by Frictape technician Jonathan Brundle.
I would definitely recommend Frictape to other helidecks, after been dealing with other kind of net mesh (e.g. wire mesh), we found that the product is way better than any other type.Pablo SilvaChief Officer / Mermaid Siam

- Conference Calls – What's Trending on T...
What's trending on Twitter right now when it comes to conference calling? A quarterly financial conference call from GM, discussing how to take on the inevitable growth of Tesla or perhaps a pre-news briefing call?
No, it's neither of these scenarios and nothing quite close to it either.
What, people are talking about most of all on Twitter when it comes to conference calling is; toilet requirements. No, this isn't an ad for Ideal Standard, we're talking about peoples plights of "uh-oh, I gotta pee" when on a conference call.
Working from home. Hosting a conference call with about 30 people on it. Amelia runs in. DADDY I NEED A POO.
— Jake Johnson (@jakepjohnson) August 7, 2015
Wow just walked into the toilet to find someone having a conference call with a headset. Wonder if the people on the other end knew.
— Gozza (@kgosney) August 6, 2015
just added a surprise toilet flush to a conference call.
— Alfie Frem (@ralfrem) July 31, 2015
that moment when you're about to jump on a client conference call and you realize you really have to pee and should have gone 15 mins ago 🙁
— Heidi Schmidt (@missheidi) July 28, 2015
What's awesome is being on a conference call and hearing a very loud toilet flush in the middle of the call.
— merry-jennifer (@merrygourmet) July 22, 2015
*works from home
*takes conference call from the toilet
— Reality Check (@GoodMistakes56) July 22, 2015
My kid asked me to wipe his butt while I was on a conference call and then he flushed the toilet while I was unmuted. COOL.
— Dead-Mow-Five (@CMaeTay) July 21, 2015
There's nothing like being on a conference call with 30 people including executives and hearing someone on the line flush the toilet. ??
— Claire Van Beek (@ClaireNicoleVB) July 20, 2015
So, there we have it. Just in case you were wondering about what's 'hot right now' when it comes to conference calling; it's pooping.
Nice one, humanity. Nice one.

'Choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve. As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord' (Joshua 24:15)
From the moment your alarm goes off in the morning, life throws at you a non-stop sandstorm of choices.
To snooze or not to snooze. Will it be the understated blue shirt or the vibrant pink one?
Will you wear your hair up or down, straighten it or curl it?
Time magazine estimates that an individual makes thousands of choices a day.
Of course, they can range from the trivial like your choice of breakfast cereal, to the more serious like what we do with our time, our money and our talents.
But ultimately, all of these choices boil down to a choice between two things: following Jesus or not following Jesus. Letting Jesus be Lord of your life, or letting something else be our master.
That is the big issue. Amidst the bewildering array of choices that you will be making day by day, week by week, year by year through your life, there is one major choice that will underline and underpin every single choice that you make.
In a nutshell, Joshua asks the people of his day, "Are you going to serve the Lord, or are you going to serve the other gods that are around you?" Joshua had his mind made up. But what about you?

Thus PRIM8TE JK8 was born. For the design of the build, he pulled features and details from previous creations (mainly trucks and Land Cruisers) and combined them for an insane JK8. The custom bed rack was actually designed back in 2009 for a truck he was building and it's something he says hasn't been done before in the Jeep world. To create precision formed and fitted parts for the Jeep, Mills and his crew used OEM CAD computer software to get everything just right.
Mills is not a fan of "trailer queens," so he spec'd out the Jeep as if he were building it as his personal ride, choosing parts that not only looked good, but with function in mind. "It's a vehicle that you could drive cross-country, beat on it off-road, live out of it for a week and then drive it back home," he details.
More than pleased with the result, he was able to use and abuse it on terrain ranging from the Nevada desert to Moab, Utah and even the Rocky Mountains of Colorado – performing "exceptionally well" at all locations. When it's not being used out on the trails, the JK8 is used for promotional efforts at car shows and events and running everyday errands.

St. Luke's Church is showing the original 1923 silent film The Hunchback of Notre Dame, with a live performance by organist Jeff Howey on a 1920 Austin pipe organ on Saturday, October 21st at 7pm at the church (915 Main Street, South Glastonbury). Tickets for the show can be purchased at the door: $10 adults, $7 students/seniors and a non-perishable donation to the town food bank. A portion of the proceeds will go to support Adama's Dream - a school that St. Luke's helped to build in a remote village in Sierra Leone, providing an education for 200 children.
Set in the famous Notre Dame Cathedral of Paris, this classic movie tells the story of a deformed bell-ringer, played by Lon Chaney, who gives sanctuary to a beautiful gypsy accused of witchcraft. Accentuating the eerie plot will be a live pipe organ performance by Jeff Howey. A graduate of Hartt College of Music, Jeff has been teaching and creating music since 1972.
At intermission, delicious home-made treats will be available for purchase. For more information, contact Patti Cole at (860)633-5057 or firstname.lastname@example.com. St. Luke's is handicapped accessible but we can best accommodate your needs if you call in advance.

Green Chile Spinach Quiche which I absolutely love! I wasn't sure how this would turn out since I love the crust so much in quiche, but this turned out really delicious! This is also a great low carb option. This makes 2 pies, but I couldn't find one of my pie plates, so I used 2 2-quart glass bowls. I also only used 1 Tbsp of butter and I didn't miss the extra butter at all.
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
12 eggs
8oz Colby-Monterey Jack cheese, shredded (I like to use reduced fat if I can)
2 cups 2% low fat cottage cheese
10oz fresh or frozen spinach (if frozen, thaw and drain)
7oz can chopped green chilies
1 Tbsp butter
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt butter in a large skillet and sautee spinach until wilted. Set aside. Beat eggs in a large bowl until smooth. Slowly add salt and baking powder and mix until no lumps remain. Stir in shredded cheese, cottage cheese, spinach, and green chilies until blended. Divide between 2 sprayed pie plates or 2-quart dishes. Bake 35-40 minutes until the quiches are lightly browned and the center comes out clean when you insert a knife.

Fugazi, Glassjaw, Refused, At The Drive In types, Leeds
Hello, been looking for a band since moving to Leeds, no luck as of yet, but if you fancy it, please get in touch. I play the drums and have been known to shout on occasion.
Can't you
move to London!? ;-)
For a handsome sum
I might consider it.
i will jam with you
i play geetar, and like gj and atdi
from leeds
Sounds good
'm looking for something similar and would be up for this. Guitarist in Leeds also.
How good are you at playing to a click man?
Got any recordings/videos or anything?
I can't say I'm all that with a click.
I'm a very undisciplined drummer, unfortunately. I just sort of hit as hard as I can and hope for the best.
^ not entirely true.
I've just had a rocky relationship with click tracks. Sorry for being very unhelpful.
That's alright dude :)
I just play in a punk band influenced by all the above artists, that relies heavily on electronics, and we've always thought about maybe getting a drummer in that could play along to both. It'd need to be super tight though.

The National Basketball Association just returned to full swing this past week and there have already been tons of great storylines. Even though we are only a few games into this young season, some teams are showing some early signs of promise and disappointment.
A team that has really surprised a lot of people with their play so far is the New York Knicks. With not being able to acquire any big name free agents over the offseason and starting the season with three straight games against playoff teams from last year, I was sure that their start would be similar to last season. Right now, though, they are looking good at 2-1 with those two wins coming on the road by an average of 16 points a game.
The next team that is off to a surprisingly good start is the Detroit Pistons. Since they have missed the playoffs each of the last six seasons, nobody really had expected anything but the same out of Detroit this year. But so far, they are undefeated after three games including wins in Atlanta against the Hawks and in overtime against the Chicago Bulls. The key to their success so far is center Andre Drummond, who has been averaging nearly 19 points and over 16 rebounds per game. With this hot start and Brandon Jennings expected to return to the lineup soon, expect the Pistons to keep the momentum going.
The last team to have an unexpected good start is the Minnesota Timberwolves. Karl Anthony Towns is doing well to start his NBA career, but that is not the reason why I believe they are off to a 2-0 start. Long time Minnesota Timberwolves head coach Flip Saunders just passed away over a week ago and since he was such a beloved coach in Minnesota, the players certainly have him on their minds while they are playing. Knowing that this season is dedicated to Saunders, keep an eye out for the Timberwolves.
There are also some teams that are off to unexpectedly bad starts. First off is the team that might be off to the worst start of any other team in the league: the Houston Rockets. The cornerstone of that team is James Harden and the fact that the MVP candidate from last season is only shooting 22 percent in the first three games is alarming. The Rockets also had a 21 point second half lead on the Miami Heat the other night and ended up losing by 20. If this keeps up, the Rockets will look just as embarrassing as they have so far, but I don't expect it to. Harden is way too good to be shooting at 22 percent from the field and nine percent from three-point range.
The other team that is off to a subpar start compared to how they should be playing is the New Orleans Pelicans. Right now they are 0-3, and even though Anthony Davis hasn't seemed to have lost a step from last season, they are just being disposed of by teams so far. They are giving up 119 points per game, which is historically bad and forewarning of many lost games in the future if they keep giving up that many points. But I seriously doubt that this will continue, so look for the Pelicans to rebound from their first three losses.

If you're running OSX 10.7 on your Mac and Papagayo is not working you might try this little java app: http://yolo.sourceforge.net
Yolo seems to run perfectly on my iMac with OSX 10.7.4 and it is very similar to Papagayo. I found that I can import a .wav file, type in my dialogue, and after tweaking as necessary, export it as a "Moho timesheet." In order to be able to import this timesheet into ASP, I simply added a ".dat" suffix to the name of the saved file. I saved the mouth file from Papagayo and open a copy of it when creating a new file requiring lip syncing. This gives me 4 mouth sets to choose from and when I select the one I desire I sync it to the .dat file, which in turn is already synced to the imported .wav file. It may not be quite as good as Papagayo, but I think it makes a nice temporary replacement for the time being.
Incidentally, this same programmer wrote another java app which works with OSX 10.7 called "LipSync" which is not automated: http://jlipsync.lamhauge.dk

MarketResearchReports.Biz Analysts Present Overview And Making Strategy On "Global Pharmaceutical Packaging Market 2016-2020"
Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/06/2016 -- MarketResearchReports.Biz Forecast And Market Research On "Global Pharmaceutical Packaging Market 2016-2020"
Market outlook of the pharmaceutical market
Market research analyst predicts the global pharmaceutical packaging market to grow at a CAGR of around 6% during the forecast period. The rapid demand for pre-fillable syringes is the primary growth driver for this market. These syringes offer several advantages such as minimization of drug waste, increasing useful product life, and convenience in drug administration and are integrated with advanced delivery systems such as pens and auto-injectors. Glass is the most popular packaging material for these syringes with the significant demand arising from the US and Europe.
However, the growing number of counterfeit products in the market is anticipated to deter the market growth during the forecast period. According to studies by the WHO, the counterfeiting rate among prescriptions sold through suspicious websites is nearly 50%. Stringent regulations are being implemented by governments globally, to counter these risks. For instance, in Europe, under the new Anti-Falsification Directive, as of 2017, drugs that have been prescribed by doctors will have to be provided with a particular and unique code number, a feature that will represent that the packaging of the drug is new and authentic.

North America
Western Europe
North America dominated the market during 2015, accounting for a market share of around 35%. The pharmaceutical packaging market in North America is dominated by the US, which is a highly competitive market. The demand for innovative forms of packaging in the country is propelled by stringent regulations by agencies such as the FDA.

When my friend Kirk asked if I wanted to go out in a kayak on the Charles River for the fireworks on the 4th, my initial instinct was to say no. More specifically something along the lines of Hell, no.
It was a reflex. I haven't celebrated holidays for years. And holidays involving big crowds and late nights are generally something I avoid. If it sounds exhausting I'm usually not up for it.
But instead I said yes. Because, well, why not? I didn't have the kids that day and I figured I might as well go for it when I no longer had them as an excuse.
Thanks to inclement weather, the fireworks on the 4th got moved to the 3rd and our leisurely outing became a bit more hectic, with both of us scrambling to get there after work and not having the time we expected to prep. But we had an anchor, we had a couple snacks, and they gave us everything else we'd need when we got there.
So off we went. Kayaking down the Charles.
I admit, one of the things that held me back is that I am not a particularly athletic person. I think I did much better than I normally would have done since I've had to lug around a certain 2-year-old who's decided she must be carried everywhere for the last couple months. I did okay. I took plenty of breaks. And WOW it was a long trip. From all the way out in Brighton to the middle of the city.
A visual aid, if you will.
For those of you who like to be precise about these things, the distance from start to finish is approximately 70 bajillion miles. Very, very windy miles.
But despite my tired arms, it was delightful. A different way to look at the city. And I was glad I was doing it now, just having passed my 4th anniversary as a Bostonian, when I could look on the city with grateful and loving eyes.
We arrived pretty early. Not many kayaks were around, but there were sailboats everywhere, terrifying me since they seemed to have no clear idea which direction they were going. We dropped anchor on the opposite side of the lake from the fireworks set up where the sailboats were less plentiful. We chatted and passed the time waiting for the sun to go down. It was lovely. Not too hot, though it was too windy because this is Boston so of course.
When we were out on our kayak I thought back to all my previous fireworks outings. And there honestly aren't that many as an adult. Watching the fireworks over Town Lake in Austin with my summer boyfriend (and Allison) when I was 18. Watching the fireworks over Lake Tahoe with my on-again-off-again semi-boyfriend when I was in law school. Watching the fireworks over yet another lake with yet another boyfriend in my mid-20's. And I'm pretty sure that was it. Which means it's been nearly a decade. And that my experience of fireworks mostly involved boys and bodies of water and I didn't have anything particularly memorable. I hadn't even spent much time remembering those previous firew0rks-watching escapades. Sometimes you have to do something to remember what it's like, how you've done it, how it fits into your history, how it makes you feel. Skipping the 4th for so many years meant I'd forgotten so much of that.
I was deeply happy to be out there, having the freedom to do something I wouldn't normally do, something that would've been nearly unthinkable just a couple years ago.
I started hatching plans while I was there to stop avoiding these big festivities and just finding a way to do them that works for me. I thought maybe next year I'd get a room at the Liberty or the Sheraton and bring the kids and watch the fireworks from our room together.
It got dark, we watched the big boats come in and get settled, we got kudos from the State Police and the FBI for our impressive anchor (the cop presence was well done on the water) the Boston Pops began to play, a group claiming to be the Beach Boys sang three entire songs, (though I was unable to see who they were and they sounded suspiciously un-Beach-Boys-like, so I sat there wondering which bastardized re-birth of the Beach Boys this was, the one with Mike Love, or the one with the other guy who I don't think was actually an original Beach Boy, and of course I regaled Kirk with my vast knowledge of Beach Boys history) and then the show finally started.
I didn't take pictures.
Because pictures of fireworks do not do them justice. They can't recreate the sparkles, the sounds, or the smell of the smoke, or the bang that you feel in your bones. I realized how long its been since I've seen a fireworks show, or a really good one, and saw kinds of fireworks I've never seen. Stars, smiley faces, one that kind of looks like Saturn that gets this amazing circle of sparkles after a ring of color.
It was amazing. It was incredible. It made me smile. I remembered that when I see fireworks that sometimes I just can't help gasping or saying "Oooooo" out loud without meaning to.
It was something you really should do, especially if you delight in the fact that the water wasn't crowded and you didn't have to deal with the masses of people one normally does at these events.
The other bonus: you don't have to wander through the busy streets and subway tunnels.
Well, you usually don't.
About 15 minutes post-show, when we'd pulled up our anchor, got our lights ready, picked up our paddles and began our long trek back to Brighton, my inner monologue went something like this:
Brighton is SO FAR. I know I've had like 4 hours of rest, but that 70 bajillion miles is really going to take some effort.
Didn't we row into the wind on the way here? How are we rowing into the wind AGAIN on the way back? And wow, they must be getting a great fireworks show over in Newton or wherever that is. Because those are some bright lights flashing off the clouds.
My arms are already getting crampy. This is going to be sooooooo loooooooong.
We haven't even hit the first bridge yet. And my recollection is there are many many many bridges. So many bridges. Seriously, Newton, kudos on the fireworks. I mean, that is definitely fireworks. So much light, so regular, it's definitely fireworks.
Still, at least we have a pretty clear route ahead. I finally see other kayaks and canoes. They're all ahead of us since they didn't go all the way to the opposite end of the river like we did, but they're out here, too. And many of them are probably wusses like me. We're in it together. Even if they're all in front of us. The water is so choppy, thanks to all those big boats with motors getting out of here. I keep getting splashed. It's making it even harder to row. Ow, my arms. Maybe I should rest for a minute.
So many people still on that bridge and on the streets.
Do I hear screaming? I definitely hear screaming. Lots of people screaming. WHY ARE PEOPLE SCREAMING? I didn't hear gunshots, I didn't hear a bomb, what is happening? Why are they screaming?
Oh. Oh crap. Oh oh oh oh crap. That wasn't fireworks. It's lightning. And they are screaming because they just got hit with rain. Rain that sounds like it'll be here any second. Rain that sounds like it will be really really hard.
And here it is.
I yell for Kirk to get out the rain jackets, but it's too late. By the time he passes me one we're already soaked through. It is that rain that comes down so hard it hurts.
And if you're lucky enough to have only experienced that kind of rain while on dry land, let me explain how it works when you're in a little kayak on a big river. First it hurts. Then you realize you cannot see. You literally cannot see. All I could see was our boat occasionally and sometimes a glimpse of just how big the waves were right next to us.
We tried to paddle and for a minute or two we went nowhere. And I thought, While it's a really good thing we read all the safety information before we got on the kayak I'm really feeling underprepared for the current crisis. We finally got a slightly less horrific patch of rain and started to paddle to shore. Only to realize that shore on the Cambridge side nearest us wasn't exactly somewhere we could dock. But then I spied a boathouse and we paddled over as quickly as we could.
Luckily for us, it was the MIT Boathouse and it was full of kids partying. Kids who were playing around in the rain and who were fortunately not drunk enough to respond to my calls for help and to assist us in getting the kayak out of the water.
We were drenched, to put it lightly. We called the kayak place and were told to wait it out.
And then the MIT grown-ups in charge of the place said that they were closing up and that even though the rain was letting up they couldn't let us back out on the water due to the lightning.
So we said goodbye to our kayak, walked our wet, wet selves a couple blocks in to Cambridge where the roads weren't blocked off, and uber'd it over to Brighton where Kirk's car was and to give the kayak rental place our tale of woe. Some people had actually made it back, most of them spry looking guys in their 20's. A few, like us, had abandoned ship.
It was a crazy, beautiful, wet, terrifying adventure. And it's nice to know that you've set yourself a new record. That is, by far, my most memorable 4th of July.

Economy to grow at 6.9% in 2011-12: Govt
India's agriculture and allied activities are expected to grow 2.5%, while manufacturing sector is seen growing an estimated 3.9% in the current fiscal year that ends in March.business Updated: Feb 07, 2012 17:04 IST
The economic growth is likely to fall to a three-year low of 6.9% in 2011-12, mainly due to sharp slowdown in manufacturing, agriculture and mining sectors, against 8.4% expansion in the last fiscal.
Agriculture and allied activities are likely to grow at 2.5% in 2011-12, compared to a robust growth of 7% in 2010-11, according to the advanced estimates released on Tuesday by the central statistical organisation (CSO).
Manufacturing growth is also expected to drop down to 3.9 % in this fiscal from 7.6% last year.
The CSO's GDP growth projection is a tad lower than the 7% forecast made by the Reserve Bank of India in its quarterly monetary policy review last month.
In its mid-year Economic Review, the government had also pegged growth at around 7.5%. The current estimate is a sharply lower than the 9% growth projection for 2011-12 made by the government in its pre-Budget survey in February last year.
The latest GDP growth estimate of 6.9% for the entire fiscal means that the pace of economic expansion slowed in the second half of 2011-12, given that GDP growth in the April-September, 2011, period stood at 7.3%.
According to the advance estimates, mining and quarrying is likely to witness a decline of 2.2%, compared to a growth of 5% a year ago.
Growth in construction is also likely to slip to 4.8% in 2011-12, against an 8 % in 2010-11.
Furthermore, the finance, insurance, real estate and business services sectors are likely to grow by 9.1 % this fiscal, against 10.4% last fiscal.

Building a fully-functional business website, in 20 steps, and no $ budget
If you run your own business you're a busy person, so let's not hang about!
20toDo is about getting a business website up & running, quickly, effectively, and at the lowest cost for a decent result.
Too many businesses don't have a good website – one that explains who they are, what they do, and how to buy their services. And altogether too many small businesses spend time & money paying somebody to develop the wrong website – one that's a digital version of a printed brochure, that's invisible to search engines, that doesn't invite visitors to do something!
You won't find long articles on 20toDo: just punchy things ToDo, in a logical sequence, with a brief explanation of why they're good things to do.
I'm aiming to get things done in 1 hour a day, for the 20 working days in February 2009. Afterwards there'll no doubt be a period of tidying up – but that's how things work best online. Get something out there… see what works… polish the stuff that works, and delete (or change) the things that don't.
OK: enough chat. We've got 20 things ToDo.

My treadmill was delivered in July of 2016. By November 2016, it was not working at all.
In order to get the machine serviced, we had to "trouble shoot" to determine which parts to order- Nordic track won't send a serviceman unless u order the parts ahead of time and they have been delivered. I set up service, which took several days, only to find out we didnt order all of the parts needed to totally fix the problem. Machine was up and running by Dec. By mid January 2017, the machine completely stopped working again.
Nordic track will not do anything to rectify this situation; I need to go thru the entire laborious service process again. I am so dissatisfied and angry!!
Product or Service Mentioned: Nordictrack 2450 Treadmill.
Reason of review: Damaged or defective.
Monetary Loss: $2200.
Preferred solution: Full refund.

Many beginning golfers go on an unnecessary spending spree first thing. You need certain pieces of golf equipment to ensure that your game gets started on the right foot. That doesn't mean that every shiny new object advertised on television, golf shows or infomercials is going to do loads to improve your golf game. Most of these products will only hurt your wallet, not help your game. You really need to focus on a few key pieces of golf equipment in the beginning and then you make the move to more advanced, and expensive purchases.
A good pair of golf shoes is the first thing you'll need. You'll be spending a lot of time on your feet as you play a game of Golf so make sure the shoes you purchase fit your feet and are comfortable to wear. You can speed up the process of breaking in your new golf shoes by wearing them off the course or to the driving range. The spikes on your shoes will need to be appropriate for the courses that you'll be playing most frequently. Most U.S. courses, for instance, require soft spike shoes.
Another important thing to have is ball markers.
This equipment is especially important if you play with a group. These markers help you identify the place where your ball landed and came to a stop on the green without interfering with the play of the other people playing the hole with you. The person farthest from the hole plays first according to golf etiquette. This means that without a ball marker to mark your spot your ball could interfere with the play of the other ball or balls on the green. These inexpensive markers are necessary for a good game when playing with a group.
Finally invest in a solid set of beginner's golf clubs. You don't want to invest in the priciest set of clubs you can find when you're first learning the game. When learning the game, you don't know if you need steel shafts or flexible shafts. The best height for you is something else you won't know at first. As a beginner, you're not ready to decide if a pair of gloves or new clubs will help you gain more control and get better distance. You'll see tons of golf equipment merchandise which allege they are the most wonderful for beginners. On the contrary, when you obtain these pieces of equipment from the get go you'll learn that there really isn't much else that you need in order to become familiar with the basics of the game. As your skills become greater, you can start adding new pieces to your supply for more of a range and potential in your golf game.
Your golf game is going to improve greatly if you get a set of golf footwear. Make sure you read a handful of product reviews for golf shoes some time before you buy. There are plenty of inexpensive golf shoes on the market, all you need to do is shop around to obtain the best deal.

Book Review: How To Japan by Colin Joyce
How To Japan is written by ex-Japan Corrospondent for The Daily Telegraph Colin Joyce. It's actually a series of articles about Japan. I actually like almost all his articles but here are a few of my favourites:
Japanese is Easy (Chapter 2): Here he reminds me about the lack of number, gender or case for nouns, lack of definite and indefinite articles, and the relative simplicity of adjectives and verbs. I'm going to have to keep this in mind the next time I'm silently complaining about how I don't understand a single world of Japanese. He follows up with some Japanese phrases in Chapter 3: The Joys of Japanese.
Every Day is April Fool's (Chapter 9.5): this is an article where you should take the opposite of every statement if you want the truth. It's really hilarious though, because it pokes fun of the misconceptions that many people have.
The two chapters about Tokyo: Loving an Unlovely City (Chapter 10) and Let's Tokyo (Chapter 11). Loving an Unlovely City tells me that Tokyo is ugly, but then points out the small pleasures that make it so lovely. I look forward to experiencing that(: Let's Tokyo is an alternative guide Tokyo, as he tries not to parrot the guidebook. Consider it a small sign pointing the way to explore Tokyo. And can someone please remind me to check out Toden tram (if it still exists) because "it seems to run almost exclusively through the parts of Tokyo that retain a feel of the past."
And finally, Confessions of a Tokyo Correspondent (Chapter 14). It certainly explains why almost all news coming out of Japan seems to be either about robots or some wacky thing about their society, making them seem completely unlike the rest of the world.
The original book was written in Japanese and published in 2006, while the English edition was published in 2009. Some information might be dated but well, I'll find out when I get there. There were some grammar errors, but the book is so good that I can live with them (this is a rare occurance).

The Suffolk was a coal coiler, built in 1911 by New York Ship
Building, Camden, New Jersey. She was owned by Sprag Steamship Co.
located in Boston. She was 366 feet long, had a 50 foot beam and
displaced 4,607 gross tons.
On December 11, 1943,while en route from Norfolk to Boston with a
cargo of coal, she was caught in a northeast gale. The steel hulled
coiler couldn't take the pounding and went down, taking all 36 crew
and six Navy armed guards with her.
According to Captain Steve Bielenda, the Suffolk is now sitting in
180 to 190 feet of water approximately 25 miles south of Montauk
Point. She is broken in two with her stern resting at a right angle
to her main wreckage. The stern is resting on her side while the
rest of the vessel is upside down. This wreck is heavily fished for
cod and pollock and is literally covered with high test
monofilament. Hank Garvin, who is one of only a hand full of divers
to visit this wreck, confirms reports of heavy monofilament on the
wreck and went on to tell me of a diver who was so entangled in the
fishing line that if it weren't for his buddy, he would not have
been able to cut his way out. To say the least, this wreck is only
for the experienced deep diver and is definitely a two
knife dive.
The following is an article by Capt Eric Takakjian and Dave Morton
Twenty two miles southeast of Block Island lies one of New England's
better kept deep wreck diving secrets-the grave of the Suffolk, a
steam collier which went down in a storm in 1943, with all hands.
Built in 1911 at the New York shipbuilding Corp, in Camden, NJ, with
a length of 365', a 50' beam and a displacement of 4,607gross tons,
the Suffolk served her owners, the C.H. Spraque Steamship Co. of
Boston, well over the years. She was a veteran of many trips
carrying coal from Newport News and Baltimore to various northeast
ports. Although over 30 years old, the boat was still well liked by
her crew, and her captain, Charles Tistle, and the chief engineer,
Irving Bennett. Both often referred to her affectionately as a "good
old job." Her hull had begun to show signs of her age, however, and
temporary steel plate patches had to be welded to her hull over
recently discovered holes, just weeks before her final voyage.
On December 9th,1943, the Suffolk departed Newport News, VA, fully
loaded but not past her marks with 6,798 tons of coal, bound for
Boston, on what appeared to be another routine early winter voyage.
All that changed on the morning of the 11th, when the eastern
seaboard was struck without warning with a severe winter storm.
Winds reached 60 knots, causing ships in the relative safety of
Boston and New York Harbors to drag their anchors. The Suffolk was
far from the safety of any harbor, and bore the brunt of the sudden
storm, no doubt battling violent sea sand severe icing. At 11:43
A.M. the Suffolk could take no more, and broad cast her first
distress call, "We are listing heavily, need help," which was
repeated just 3 minutes later, and received at the Amagansett Coast
Guard Station. Only twenty minutes later at 12:03, the Suffolk sent
what was to be her last message, "We are foundering- we need help
immediately." Six Navy destroyers and three naval tugs were
dispatched to the last reported position to search for the Suffolk,
and any signs of her crew, which consisted of 37 merchant seamen,
and 6 naval gunners.
The naval vessels searched throughout the night without success.
Early the next morning, five of the destroyers were recalled to New
York. The search was continued with there maining destroyer, three
tugs, planes and a blimp until the afternoon of the13th, but no
trace of the Suffolk was found.
Eighteen days later, a life raft containing the bodies of two of the
crew members was located by the USS Reeves, over 300 miles south
from where the Suffolk went down. The ships doctor determined that
the two had died of exposure at least two days prior to being found.
On December 22nd, a naval tug made sonar contact with an object 35
miles east of the Suffolk's last reported position, and then
depth-charged the contact believing it was aU-Boat. Upon close
examination of the debris that floated to the surface, it was
determined that this was in fact the final resting place of the
The Suffolk definitely lies on the outer edge of New England diving.
Its location in 190feet of water almost 35 miles off the mainland
invokes respect from even the most seasoned deep wreck diver. Very
little is known about diving the Suffolk, mainly because there have
been relatively few dives made on the wreck in the 50years that she
has been down. Only a handful of charters have actually made the
trek out, and have been met with a variety of conditions, typical
for such an offshore site. Some information written about diving the
Suffolk has described her as a deep, dark, unforgiving wreck with
lots of monofilament, which certainly can be true. the wreck does
have its share of mono, fishnet, and dragger shrapnel, and divers
must use extreme care when navigating about the wreck. When in 190
feet of water, add in bad visibility and dubious surface conditions,
the recipe is about complete for a dangerous dive. But when the sea
cooperates the Suffolk can be an awesome dive
Such conditions were present in early July 1993 when the Grey Eagle
left Rhode Island on the first charter to the Suffolk in seven
years. With oily flat seas and a promising forecast, the boat
steamed towards the rising sun. As we approached the wreck site, we
thought we had been beaten out to the wreck by a boat full of cod
jiggers, but we were relieved to find that the other boat was drift
fishing for blues. As the marker line went over the side we were
thrilled to observe 30feet of vertical visibility.
the tie in team went over the side. in minutes the cups were
floating on the surface. Lines were secured, oxygen was deployed,
and all the divers were in. Artifacts recovered that day would
include the 24 inch brass engine order alarm bell, and brass engine
the mooring line was shackled into a deck plate about 40 feet
forward of the stern, in 42 degrees water with visibility that was
at least 30 feet, but could have been pushing50. Dive lights were
only needed to illuminate the inner reached of the engine room, as
most of the interior was exposed through the broken hull.
The Suffolk lies turned turtle on the bottom, but the stern area has
plenty of openings, most likely caused by the depth charge attack
during the war. One hole in the engine room is so large, an ill
fated 20 foot long scallop dragger rig rests inside. Rumors of lots
of monofilament were definitely true, but the wreck has no more than
any other well fished wreck in New England, and perhaps less than
some of the heavily fished wrecks south of New York, such as the
Arundo. The propeller is still in place, providing a great photo
opportunity, although the rudder is missing, which may have been a
major cause of the sinking.
Brass shone like gold from the dive lights everywhere you looked,
and artifact hunting divers were limited by having to make decisions
as to what to take, and what to leave behind. Others were just
content to use their limited bottom time on the one scheduled dive
to see as much of the wreck as possible. One dive team observed what
looked like the engine order telegraph hanging upside down from a
deck plate only 20 feet from the anchor line, but had neither the
tools nor the time to further investigate their discovery. It's good
to see that the years have been kind to her underwater, and the
Suffolk can still be referred to as "a good old job".
penetration into any shipwreck should only
be done by those with proper training, experience and
wreck diving equipment. Scuba equipment
like powerful dive lights,
navigation reels,
dive knives
as well as redundant air supply like a
pony bottle or
are standard gear for wreck divers.

|Poweslide R2 2007 Review
|I got a Powerslide 2007 R2 in today to review. Being told it was mostly the same as the 2005 R2 I wasn't that excited to try it but just trying it on in the office I could see it wasn't going to be like the 2005 R2. It felt more C4, C6 like then the old R2. It felt like it had more support then the old R2, again more like the C series. It seemed to be hitting me in the right places and open in the correct places where the old R2 hit me all over which isn't a good thing. (review continued below)
|While first skating on it I could instantly feel the increased support over the old R2. I could crazy run on it for some reason. Every step felt sure and I didn't have to worry about setting down wrong. Definitely a good off the line boot. Same at high speed, very stable. Much better then the old R2 for putting a 90mm or 100mm frame on this boot. No complaints here.
It is now almost identical to the C4 and C6 boots other then the fact the shell is plastic and the C4 is carbon and the C6 is fiberglass. I have no problem skating on a plastic shelled boot, in fact if I wasn't told it had a plastic shell I would have had no idea while skating. Oh, the bottom looks cool with it's blue carbon look instead of the standard black carbon look.
I'm happy to see you can get the 2007 R2 with a 5x80 frame. Have you seen 5x84 or a 90mm or 100mm frame on a size 3 boot? It's not pretty. The 5x80 is also a great frame to keep the ankles strong for distance skating. It's also a good frame for beginners to practice getting an outside edge without the high amount of torque a 90mm or 100mm frame puts on an ankle.
Powerslide now has a Matter 80mm 83a wheel to complement their 80mm frame. The Matter 80mm 83a wheel will now be able to replace the Hyper Bankrobber 80mm 82a, 80mm 84a and +G 80mm 83a, 80mm 85a wheels that have been discontinued. Being that I still enjoy skating on 80mm wheels for ultra distance I am very happy to see Powwerslide offer an 80mm 83a wheel to replace Hypers discontinued 80mm wheels. I haven't found a wheel to equal Hypers Bankrobber and +G wheels but the Matter wheel is the first wheel that does. Thank you Powerslide.
Getting back to the 2007 R2 or should I say the 2007 C2. Again the new R2 is much more like the C4 and C6 then the old R2. I currently skate on the C4, C6 and there was quite a gap between these and the old R2 but now I can say that I would easily skate on the C4, C6 or the new 2007 R2.
Addition: When Powerslide released the 2007 R2 they were not going to offer it as a boot only but as of 10-02-06 we were informed they will now be selling it as a boot only (good news).
Addition: Just like the C4 and C6 the R2 also needs to be tabbed. The tabbing article is Here.
Please email firstname.lastname@example.com if you have any questions.
Dollar for dollar, the Powerslide R2 boot is, without a doubt, the absolute best value on the market today. Greg O.
