4C Pedestal Mailbox Shipment
USA Building Supplies would like to provide some advisement concerning your shipment of 4C pedestal mailboxes. The first factor a prospective client should make after selecting their 4C cluster box is whether any special services are needed from the freight company to deliver the product to their jobsite or business. The most sought after special freight services are delivery notification and lift gate service. Most general contractors find a delivery notification call helpful before their pedestal mailbox is delivered. In this case, the freight company will call the person designated by the contractor twenty four hours prior to delivery. Another service that proves to be beneficial for the customer especially for large shipments is lift gate service. A lift gate truck will lower the shipment to ground when delivering. All 4C pedestal mailboxes when delivered consist of two boxes. The box with pedestal will be relatively lightweight. The mailbox module box will typically be heavier than the box containing the pedestal. When the freight driver arrives please inspect all boxes for damage and note any damages on the delivery receipt before you sign for your pedestal mailboxes. We also ask that you count the boxes and make sure what you are signing for is accounted for on the delivery receipt. Once the 4C pedestal mailboxes have been signed for we ask that you make thorough inspection within five business days to make sure there is no concealed damage to your commercial mailbox. Contact USA Building Supplies to have a smooth purchase and shipment of your 4C pedestal mailbox.

This is Ray Ozzie. He's Microsoft's Chief Software Architect. I pictured him kind of younger than that… but Microsoft ages you like nothing else. I mean, just look at Steve Ballmer!
Anyway, see that link on Ray's page… top right in the sidebar… yeah, that links to his blog. Click it.
You've arrived at a page dated November 16th and you're reading a post where Ray is talking about this, his first post in his third attempt at blogging. He hopes he will do ok this time around:
So … if I couldn't sustainably blog the last two times I tried, will it work this time? I guess you'll just have to stay tuned to find out. I certainly have a much more complex life now than I did then, with much less flex time / whitespace within which to blog. Conversely, I'm involved in many interesting and varied issues here that have potentially broad impact, so there's probably a lot more I'll want to converse about.
So how's he going, you might ask? After that somewhat underwhelming reentry to the blogosphere…
Well, how about I told you that the datestamp you see at the top of that post — November 16 — is from over two years ago?! You got that right, folks… Ray's official bio page links to his blog, and directly to a post he wrote waaaaaaaaaaaaay back in November 2005!
Ok, so maybe it's a silly oversight to link directly to such an old post. Never mind… so let's go to his blog's homepage…
Now we're looking at a blog post datestamped April 1st, and I'm sorry to say but indeed the joke is on us. That's a post from April 2006. It's coming up to two years old! And if you count the posts as you go down that page, you'll find a grand total of six posts. Period.
But it gets worse…
Because Ray's blog carries (what I assume is) the default Live Spaces blog template, there is a long list of Month/Year archive links running down the left-hand sidebar. They go on forever. And one after the other — if you can be bothered clicking on them in the vain hope of finding a blog post — they come up blank, except for the sad words:
There are no entries in this archive.
No, indeed there are not. None… Not since April 2006. It's all quiet on the Redmond Front. Verrrrry quiet!
Now here's the deal. If Ray's not blogging, I can handle that. If he's too busy, I'm cool with that. In my consulting I am as much convincing executives not to blog as I am challenging them to consider it.
But hey, if you do have a blog, here are a couple of thoughts:
- Build it on a real blog platform that doesn't create empty month archives by default and deceptively hide the year in post datestamps!
- Don't for goodness' sake link to it from your Executive Bio page on your Corporate web site if the most recent post is almost two years old.
Heck. I say kill it! Get it off the web. It's not doing you any favours.
How Ray Lost His Groove
Here's the other reason why I am disappointed, and it's got nothing to do with blogging, but I'm still sad.
Before Ray was with Microsoft he was with IBM and Notes. But in-between he built what I thought was one of the most funky cool amazing things called Groove. You can think of Groove (at least as it was then) as a P2P "team workspace" with really nice encryption, SDK, pricing model, UI, etc. The technology was gorgeous, and the power of it was really impressive. We're talking shared documents, built-in voice conferencing, whiteboarding, project management, etc. And all that run over a peer-to-peer architecture with high encryption and more cool stuff that I can no longer recall.
Now, maybe I've got it all wrong, but I feel like since Groove was taken over by MS and Ray got the CTO gig, Groove has just vaporized. Here's proof of what I mean… I'd like to show you the promo video on the MS site… but the link is broken 🙁 That's the introductory Groove video, no less!
Ray, are you seeing this?!
Here's a writer for Red Herring, who last week both praised and damned Ozzie and MS in consecutive paragraphs:
One of Microsoft's most significant acquisitions was Ray Ozzie, now the company's chief software architect. We won't hold it against Mr. Ozzie that he created Lotus Notes, a classic example of packaged software bloat that IBM still foists on unsuspecting customers. That wasn't why Gates and Ballmer pulled him in.
If you want to see the future of Microsoft, look at Groove, the startup Ozzie built after Notes. Groove was an on-line collaboration platform that allowed users to quickly create shifting groups of workers with finely-controlled access. They could share documents, edit them together, hold meetings and discussions while they looked at documents.
This writer is confused enough to suggest that Groove is a vision of Microsoft's future, yet speaks of it in the past tense, which might suggest that even technology journalists out there are unaware that Groove still exists and is part of the default install of MS Office 2007 Enterprise Edition.
I'm just wondering… why is Groove hidden away in only the Enterprise and Ultimate editions of Office 2007?! Why is it locked into Office and not also strongly promoted and sold on its own merits?
What's that Big 'G' in the Rear View Mirror??
Microsoft has pretty must lost me. I bought a Mac last month. I dumped Exchange Server about 18 months ago and everyone here's on Google Apps now. On the Mac I never even looked at Entourage, opting for Thunderbird and Gmail via IMAP.
So what did I do today (for no particularly strategic reason)?? I emailed Google and told them I thought it was time they implemented a Groove-style P2P VPN client app (perhaps delivered with Google Pack) so that Google Apps users can collaborate in a more elaborate, encrypted and "offline-tolerant" way than is currently possible.
And the thing is, I'd be surprise if Google was not already working hard on something like that.
So here's the deal, Ray. I do still think (and agree with our journalist friend above) that Groove is a sign of things to come in the future… except that I'm afraid it will be Google's future, not Microsoft's. I have not seen Google make the kinds of mistakes you've made recently… like burying some of your best technology in the bowels of Office Enterprise (where it's guaranteed never to be found by the vast majority of your customer-base)… like screwing up an executive blog on a screwed up blogging platform.
So please… bring Groove back from the wilderness! Reposition it for "groups" (not enterprises) and work out how it's everything Sharepoint will never be (but that's another sad post for another day). Give Google something to really feel challenged about, for a change.
I am convinced in principle — but not in technical detail — that Groove is just at that cozy point of equilibrium… of client app married to rich online services, which Google Apps right now is not. It solves the online/offline question, it does security wonderfully, it's lean, it's extensible and so forth.
If Groove is not the (kind of) platform for online apps that stands a chance of winning folks like me back from Google, what will?! Assuming it's O/S platform agnostic, of course 🙂
I'm sure you get my point.
Oh, and I'm a blog consultant. I can help you sort that blogging thing out too. But just know that I'll start by trying to convince you to get rid of that horrid V3 thing immediately.
Over and out.

Large videos can take up a lot of spaces on your hard disk leaving you with no more space to store other types of files. If you want to keep these video files on your computer, you will have to compress them into a format that is smaller size. If you often upload videos and share them on video sharing sites, you should get a video conversion software so that you can compress the videos. If you don't compress your video, it is going to take much longer to have the video uploaded. It is not recommend to upload the videos without compressing it first because anything could happen when you are uploading and cause you to have to reupload the video file all over again.
For this reason, you need to get a video converter software like Movavi Video Converter which comes with the essential features for you to convert your videos into many different types of formats to reduce their sizes. Converting a video file with Movavi Video Converter is very easy. All you need to do is to add the video file and select the Convert To preset list to choose a suitable file format. There are a few video formats that can help you to reduce video size including FLV, MP4, and WMV.
Movavi Video Converter is one of the leading video converter software that allows you to convert video files with lossless quality. There are 3 simple steps you need to follow when converting the video files. The first step is to add the videos. You must make sure that the video you want to convert is already on your computer hard disk. You can drag the video into the software or use the Add Videos button to add the videos. You can select multiple video files and drag them into the software. Movavi Video Converter will only convert the video files that you have already checked so you must not forget to check the checkboxes of the video files that you want to convert.
Movavi Video Converter comes with extra features such as crop, rotate and trim tool. The crop tool allows you to crop parts that you don't want the audience to see. Cropping the video can also help to reduce the video size. You can use the trimming tool to cut only the clip that you want from the video. In this way, the video length will be shorter which results in a smaller output video file. If the video look dark, you can adjust the brightness to improve the video's lighting.
In Movavi Video Converter, there is a feature that allows you to add subtitles. If you don't want the subtitles, you can also remove it from the video. Movavi Video Converter can be run on computers that run Windows as well as Mac computers that rely on iOS operating system. It is just a small investment and you will be able to compress as many videos as you want into any format you want.

007 Mission Files: 'Licence to Kill'
After the moderate success of The Living Daylights in 1987, the Bond producers quickly moved forward with their next adventure with star Timothy Dalton. However, with the Soviet Union being less and less of a threat (the Berlin Wall fell the same year Licence to Kill was released), they had to find a new villain.
Due to MGM's financial issues and the Bond producers reportedly still paying interest on the ballooned Moonraker budget, Albert "Cubby" Broccoli and MGM agreed to keep the budget at a modest $36 million. The script originally called for Bond to spend a large portion of the movie in China facing off against a drug lord, but they had to find a new location to maintain such a small budget.
Eventually, it was decided to retool the script. Every newspaper at the time had at least one article about a Central American drug cartel. This gave the producers their new premise. They could shoot the film very cheaply in Mexico City, only a few hours from Los Angeles, and use the Central American locations for their new drug lord villain.
Licence to Kill is the first Bond film not based on a Fleming story or even using the name of one. However, both Timothy Dalton and Robert Davi (who plays drug lord Franz Sanchez) were intent on being true to Fleming's tales of Bond. The eventual writers' strike made this even more possible. Long-time Bond writer Richard Maibaum felt obligated to take part in the strike, since he was a part of the Writers' Guild of America. It was up to producer and Maibaum collaborator Michael G. Wilson to finish the script. He pulled from Fleming's Goldfinger, in which Bond recounts a story of breaking up a Central American drug ring, and Leiter's story from Live and Let Die.
Banking on the ultra-violent action films of the 1980s, like Die Hard and Lethal Weapon, Licence to Kill was released in 1989 with the hopes of reinvigorating the Bond franchise. However, like all Bond films, this ended up seeming more like a knee-jerk reaction to changes in cinema and a desire to emulate whatever was hot at the time. Due to a bloated summer of movies in 1989 that included Batman, Lethal Weapon 2, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, and Ghostbusters II (among many others…it was a really stacked year for movies) everyone was disappointed to see Licence to Kill only garner $156.2 million at the box office.
The movie opens on Felix Leiter's wedding day. Bond is his best man, and they are on their way to the church when they are stopped by the Coast Guard. Felix has been working on a case against Franz Sanchez, but he rarely leaves his compound in Isthmus City and he is impossible to extradite since he owns the police. However, the Coast Guard informs them that the DEA has discovered that Sanchez is in the US to retrieve an escaped lover. They need Felix's help to catch him. Bond and Felix jump at the chance to catch Sanchez and are able to take him into custody. Felix and Bond return to the wedding and Felix marries his blushing bride, Della.
Roll credits. That was great. I'm so happy everything worked out. It was pretty short for a Bond film, I have to say that. Wait. These are the opening credits. What's happening now? Sanchez is being transported? That doesn't seem like a good idea right now. You just caught him. Why is that DEA agent attacking one of Sanchez's guards, he was just at Felix's wedding! Oh no. I see where this is going…
Sanchez is able to escape from the police escort with the help of his crew and some paid-off federal agents. His first order of business is revenge on Felix Leiter. He sends people to Felix's house, on his wedding night, kills his bride, and takes him to a warehouse where Sanchez is readying to return to Isthmus City. Sanchez lowers Felix into a shark tank where they eat one of his arms and legs. He then orders his men to return Felix to his home.
The next morning, Bond is at the airport getting ready to return to London when he hears that Sanchez has escaped. His first thought is of Felix and Della's safety. He rushes to their home and finds Della dead and Felix dying with a note that reads "He disagreed with something that ate him." Bond knows this was Sanchez's work, and he also knows it won't be long before Sanchez leaves town. He teams up with one of Leiter's men named Sharkey and searches the area. They eventually find the warehouse where Sanchez had been and Bond disposes of the DEA agent that helped Sanchez escape.
The following day, Sharkey provides Bond with information on the ship named the Wavekrest that was near the warehouse. It's owned by Milton Krest, a known drug dealer. Bond is then confronted by M, pointing out that Britain has no jurisdiction or interest in this case and Bond is too close to Felix to be of any help. He gives him a mission in Istanbul, but Bond refuses the assignment and resigns. M is forced to revoke his license to kill and take his Walther.
Bond is able to board the Wavekrest and find the connection to Sanchez's operation, however he soon sees a group of men with the dead body of Sharkey. Bond's emotions get the best of him. He kills one of the men and flees the area aboard a seaplane. Bond returns to Leiter's house and retrieves the information that he had on Sanchez including a list of contacts, all but one of which are deceased. Bond meets the final contact Pam Bouvier in a bar that night, but Sanchez's right hand man Dario shows up. A huge bar fight ensues (obvious Road House rip off), and Bond and Bouvier escape on a speedboat. They reluctantly decide to work together. Since Pam is a pilot she is able to fly Bond to Isthmus City.
In London, Moneypenny tells M that she is worried about James, and M assures her he has sent a man to Isthmus City to intercept him.
Now in Isthmus City, Bond has deposited a large sum of money into a bank owned by Sanchez, and he is drawing attention to himself at one of his casinos. Finally, Sanchez calls for a meeting with Bond, where Bond offers his services to Sanchez. He tells him that he has left MI-6 and is interested in becoming a hired gun (the best lies have some truth in them). Sanchez says he'll think about it and sends Bond on his way.
When Bond and Pam return to their hotel room they find Q waiting for them. Moneypenny has been worried sick, and she convinced Q to take some gadgets to Isthmus City and assist him. Now that he has the necessary tools and has seen Sanchez's hideout, he returns to the casino to assassinate him. Before he is able to, he is attacked by a group of ninjas that take him to their headquarters. It turns out they are agents from Hong Kong and they're working with one of M's men to capture Bond and return him to London. Just then, Sanchez and his men storm the fortress. Seeing Bond being held captive convinces Sanchez that Bond is an ally, and so he takes him on.
The next morning, Bond tells Sanchez that the Chinese agents were a freelance hit team trying to take him out. Bond now begins to play Sanchez against himself, casting doubt on the people around him. First is Krest. That night Bond is able to board the Wavekrest and hide the money that he stole from Sanchez in an easily found area. Sanchez quickly kills Krest for trying to steal from him.
Bond is able to return to Sanchez's mansion before Sanchez. When Franz comes into Bond's room and tells him that he was right not to trust Krest, Bond suggest that no one would be stupid enough to take on Sanchez alone. He must have been working with someone…
The next day they go to a facility that Sanchez uses as a drug front. He's mixing cocaine into gasoline and shipping it into the US, where it is then removed. Dario finally identifies Bond as the man he saw in the bar with Bouvier. A fight breaks out and Bond is able to start a massive fire in the lab. Sanchez orders an evacuation and everyone heads to a taker truck filled with gas and cocaine. A huge chase ensues during which Bond destroys all of the tankers and Sanchez's operation goes up in flames.
The movie is good for what it is, as long as you watch it with the perspective of an ultra-violent '80s action flick that was made with a small budget during a writers' strike. I like it, and Timothy Dalton and Robert Davi are great in it, but it isn't as well rounded as The Living Daylights.
I do like that one of Wilson's inspirations for the plot was the Akira Kurosawa film Yojimbo, in which a ronin (a masterless samurai) rides into town and is able to defeat the warring clans that control the city by manipulating them into destroying themselves. This movie was later remade with Clint Eastwood for a western audience and titled A Fistful of Dollars.
There was a massive changing of the guards in the Bond universe after the release of this movie. Most notably, it was the final movie for producer Albert R. "Cubby" Broccoli, who had championed the series since Dr. No. Broccoli was battling illness during the shooting of Licence to Kill and was unable to be a part of the crew in Mexico City due to the thin, polluted air. He did do some minor consulting on GoldenEye before he died, but his daughter Barbara Broccoli, who was an associate producer on The Living Daylights, took over his legacy from here. The world of Bond would definitely be much different if it had been in anyone else's hands.
This was also the last Bond film directed by John Glen. He had helmed all of the films since For Your Eyes Only. This was also the last effort from the writing team of Richard Maibaum and Michael G. Wilson. Wilson has continued as a producer to this day, but Maibaum died in 1991 before a follow up film could get off the ground. Glen firmly believes that, while it isn't his favorite of the Bond films he directed, he does feel it is his best and he is most proud of the way Licence to Kill turned out.
Actors Robert Brown (M), Caroline Bliss (Moneypenny), and of course Timothy Dalton (James Bond) also left the series after this movie for various reasons, mostly due to the delay in the next entry in the franchise. Maurice Binder (who had done all of the opening title sequences since Dr. No) was also unable to return for GoldenEye, as he died in 1991.
Any literature fans? The base where M meets with Bond in Key West was the home of Ernest Hemingway. It is now a cat-filled museum of the author's work. M makes a silly pun about it being 'a farewell to arms' when Bond turns in his gun.
Any gun nuts? In the opening scene, Bond borrows a Beretta from the US Coast Guard. Berettas were Bond's gun of choice in the books and film universe until M forces him to use a Walther PPK in Dr. No, which he is most known for carrying.
There were a number of mishaps while trying to film the tanker truck sequence on La Rumorosa Road. It was a dangerous stretch of road that was known for vehicular deaths, including a bus full of nuns on the particular corner they were using to film. It was actually closed by the government, which allowed the producers to shoot on it without human interference. However, the government didn't guarantee there would be no supernatural interference. During the long shoot of the final action sequence the crew reported numerous odd occurrences. Human figures would appear around the trucks at night and vanish when the security guards approached them. Two trucks spontaneously caught on fire one evening with no explanation ever discovered. One night, an empty truck even started up and drove a short distance before coming to a stop.
However, the most eerie story is from the final explosion. Two tanker trucks full of gasoline were going to go up in flames. To get the proper coverage, Glen used multiple cameras from all over the area. Next to one of the cameras stood a photographer that was taking promotional stills. In the explosion, the photographer captured what appeared to be a flaming hand reaching out from the explosion and a shadowy figure on the ledge above looking over the scene. I'm sure it was just a trick of the photography, being in the right place at the right time, but he was standing right next to a rolling video camera. They checked all of the tapes and could not find the hand or the figure anywhere else. Only on the still photo.
Gladys Knight sings the title track titled "Licence to Kill." It's fine. If nothing else, it's a nice big brassy return to the Shirley Bassey days with a little '80s pop thrown in. This is the only Bond movie to have two chart-appearing songs, though. Patti LaBelle's "If You Ask Me To" was written for the movie and plays during the closing credits. It appeared on the charts again in the late '90s when it was covered by Celine Dion.
To further add to the feel of an '80s action movie, the producers brought in Michael Kaman to replace John Barry, who had done the music for Bond since Dr. No. Kaman was already known for his work on Road House, Die Hard, and Lethal Weapon.
Cars: The most memorable vehicles are the fleet of Kenworth W900B trucks for the closing action sequence. I wouldn't have guessed Bond was such a good truck driver. There was also a pair of Cessna planes flown by Bouvier. A Rolls Royce Silver Shadow, a Rolls Royce Silver Cloud II, and a Lincoln Continental Mark VII LSC also appear, but no real Bond car. Q didn't have anything to do with these.
Allies: This is Robert Brown's fourth consecutive appearance as M, fifth appearance overall (he played Admiral Hargreaves in The Spy Who Loved Me), and final appearance in the series. Brown did a great job during his tenure, but unfortunately Bernard Lee left big shoes to fill. He defined the role and played it longer than any other actor. To make matters worse, the role was subsequently played by Oscar winner Dame Judy Dench and Oscar nominee Ralph Fiennes. Needless to say, he is often overlooked.
Also overlooked is Caroline Bliss as Miss Moneypenny. This is her second and also final appearance in a Bond film. Unfortunately, her character felt underdeveloped. She had decent chemistry with Dalton, but Lois Maxwell left a huge hole that no other actress has been able to fill.
Desmond Llewelyn returns for the fourteenth time to play Q. With this entry he ties Lois Maxwell for most Bond appearances. In my article for The Living Daylights I errantly said that Q's days in the field were over. Do I have egg on my face? I forgot about his part in this film, and it's actually the largest role he has in any Bond movie. He goes into the field with a suitcase full of goodies to help James and Pam at the behest of Moneypenny. He stays with them for a large portion of the movie, masquerading as Bond's uncle.
Felix Leiter makes his second straight appearance, this time played by David Hedison, who played him in Live and Let Die. Hedison does a nice job, but he's a bit broad. That being said, he does lose two limbs to a shark and his wife is murdered, all on his wedding day. He can be a little broad.
Sharkey is one of Felix's associates. Bond uses him to get around Key West. He's clearly at least a relative of Quarrel's. They have the same build and job as a covert agent on a fishing boat.
Della Churchill Leiter was briefly Felix's wife before she was murdered. The movies do not do a good job establishing Bond and Felix's relationship. They pop up in each other's lives from time to time, but now Bond is suddenly best man at his wedding? Bond and Della are acting like they've known each other since middle school. She honestly seems to like James better than Felix. Priscilla Barnes, best known as the third blonde roommate in Three's Company, does a nice job, but the part isn't as big as expected.
Bond Girls: This is tough. It could be argued that Pam Bouvier is an ally instead of a Bond Girl. She's an ex-CIA pilot who has been working as an informer for Felix. She is able to help Bond quite a bit, but it seems to be out of affection as much as any sense of duty. Carey Lowell does a nice job with the character. At the time of casting she was more well known as a model, but she was able to carry the part. She later popped up in such films as Sleepless in Seattle and Leaving Las Vegas.
Talisa Soto appears as Lupe Lamora, Sanchez's girlfriend. Girlfriend is a little misleading. He treats her more like property, and she tries many times to escape. She also falls for Bond, who in the end he chooses to be with Pam.
Gadgets: There were more gadgets in this movie than I remembered. Still, Bond doesn't rely too heavily on them. There's the Dentonite toothpaste that Bond plans to use to blow out a window and shoot Sanchez. There's also a multifunctional camera. It shoots a laser from the flash and the Polaroid that prints off is an x-ray. Most importantly, with the right attachments, it becomes a sniper rifle with a signature grip–much like the gun in Skyfall.
Villains: Franz Sanchez is the drug lord everyone is after. Robert Davi, whom you may know from The Goonies and Die Hard, appears as a multilayered villain for Bond. Davi tried to pull inspiration for his character from a number of other Bond villains, such as Scaramanga and Le Chiffe. His dedication for creating a character true to Fleming's style that could be a foe to Bond, and cut from the same mold, comes through in his performance.
Benicio Del Toro plays Sanchez's right-hand man Dario. At 21, Del Toro was the youngest actor to ever play a Bond villain. You can definitely see streaks of Del Toro's later eccentric roles, as he plays a creepy scene stealer in this one.
Milton Krest, played by Anthony Zerbe, is a drug runner for Sanchez. He gets played by James and killed by Sanchez. He's kind of a sympathetic villain. He's just trying to smuggle some drugs. Poor guy.
Wayne Newton appears in a bit role as a televangelist named Professor Joe Butcher, which is not too much of a stretch from Jim Bakker. He's working for Sanchez and they use his show to announce drug prices to buyers around the world. The church turns a decent profit, too. Newton had been begging Broccoli to put him into a Bond movie for years, and they finally found the perfect role for him. He does a really nice job here.
Everett McGill plays Ed Killifer, the DEA agent that Sanchez pays off. I was just excited to see Big Ed Hurley from Twin Peaks show up, but of course he's been in a number of other things as well.
Finally there's Truman-Lodge, Sanchez's financial advisor. He's the only person trying to treat Sanchez's operation like a business. Sanchez keeps dismissing his ideas for a worse plan where he can make an example out of someone or get his point across to them. You can easily recognize Truman-Lodge because he is holding a briefcase in every shot, as accountants are wont to do.
And that's that. Unfortunately, due to the large number of departures and deaths, a legal battle over the rights to Bond ownership, MGM financial troubles, and a weak box office due to a busy summer at the theater, it would be six years before the world saw Bond again. This left many wondering if he would return at all. There are treatments for 'Bond 17' that you can find floating around the internet, sometimes called Property of a Lady. In the film, Bond was to team up with a retiring spy and a jewel smuggler to take down a Hong Kong-based terrorist who is trying to start World War III by targeting nuclear facilities. Release dates were announced for 1991, 1994, and 1995 before it was finally canceled after Dalton announced his retirement from the character in April 1994. Portions of the plot are split between GoldenEye and Tomorrow Never Dies, while other large chunks appeared in True Lies. Fortunately, Pierce Brosnan was announced as the new James Bond in June of 1994, and GoldenEye was released in November of 1995.
I still think Dalton's tenure as Bond is a bit overlooked. I prefer The Living Daylights over Licence to Kill because I feel like the story is better. It's more of an adventure, while Licence to Kill is a generic '80s action flick. Though, I am a Licence to Kill apologist due to the small budget and writers' strike. Ultimately, I don't think the world was ready for a realistic, gritty Bond that could emote feelings like love for Kara Milovy and fear, sorrow, and anger for the Leiters. The world seems ready now, though. If you like Daniel Craig's appearances as Bond, please check out these late '80s gems starring Timothy Dalton.

Remember the time Keegan Allen a.k.a. Toby Frickin Cavanaugh instagrammed/tweeted about our book? We do. We shall never ever forget.
Remember that other time when Andy Reaser, writer on Pretty Little Liars, twitter-surprised us (that's a thing, right?) with enthusiastic and kind words about Rosewood? We do — because Crissy screen-capped that day-making glory. (Nerd, yes.)
It is a surreal/awesome thing for the people who make Pretty Little Liars to be reading our book about the show — and that folks like Andy and Norman Buckley like the book? It makes our hearts explode. Thankfully not literally.

Publicly shared routes is really nice but realistically not very useful if 12,000 miles away.
Can you add a sort facility to be country specific ?
A filter for finding created routes near you is a great suggestion!
A this current time however you can always use the Track Library inside of Route Lab to check out routes near your location. It's possible to zoom into your hometown and view routes that were created near the place you want to visit.

Introducing The Spring Issue
The spring issue of Kinfolk examines the nuances of free time, its rituals and rhythms and its capacity to reinvigorate.

With a dynamic mix of long-form journalism, interviews and shorter essays, plus concept-driven visual stories and contributors across the globe, the forthcoming issue of Kinfolk continues to dedicate its editorial to exploring personal values and quality of life. From the curious cultural mythologies behind sleep and fashion editorial for looking good on laundry day to interviews with Moses Sumney, Dimore Studio and more, this issue will inspire readers with a fresh outlook on going off-duty.
Details 192 pages, offset-printed and perfect bound, full colour on uncoated and coated paper. Printed in Canada.

March 25 - what's on your feet
Feet...slippers, socks, boots, tennis, heels, loafers, clogs, sandels, flip flops, naked, our feet help us to get from point A to point B. They run, walk, dance, skip, hop. They get cold, they get hot, they get sore, they get dry, they get painted and prettied. They get stuffed in shoes and they get to wiggle free.
See some of the shoes that have been on my feet...

A Closer Look at the adidas Originals NMD City Sock "Core Black/Core Black"
Black upper, black plugs, black unit code.
UPDATE: It seems adidas Originals is releasing these same NMD City Socks in a Wool Pack with the same S32184 code, only with the inclusion of taped seams; the ones pictured above may be unreleasing samples. A release date of September 9 has also been revealed.
Having already seen a Core Black with Lush Blue rear EVA plug, adidas Originals provides us with a "triple black" sample of the highly popular NMD CS1 aka the City Sock. The upper retains the Core Black striping color pattern as seen earlier, but both EVA plugs found at the midsole are now painted in a dark shade of ebony to match the overall stealthy tone. Continuing the theme, tonal gloss unit code writing is found on the medial's arch, while the "The Brand with the Three Stripes" multilingual heel loops are set against using a subtle grey lettering. Only time will tell if this model will eventually see a black painted midsole, but for now these are as murdered out as you can get.
Check your local adidas Originals stockist for this colorway to appear soon, as well as more upcoming City Sock renditions.

Biwi par essay...
Biwi ek paltu prani hai, ye ghar ki rasoi mein payi jati hai. Iska priye ahaar pati ka bheja hota hai. Karva chouth wale din ye badi matra mein dhong karti dikhai deti hai. Shuruwat mein ye prani bada achcha lagta hai baad mein ye jungli saand ki tarah ho jati hai. Inke maa baap ki galti inke pati ko bhugatni padti hai. Hamein sab patiyon se humdardi hai. Ummid hai aap bhi dusron se hamdardi jatayenge.

One of my favorite things to eat growing up was Petro (aka tennessee chili). Petro was this incredible fast food joint founded in Knoxville, TN that made vegetarian chili (and meat chili) topped with fritos, green onions, and sour cream. Its seriously delicious, but unfortunately the one near my home closed down well before I learned to cook. My mom & best friends mom did their best to recreate the dish (and they did a pretty amazing job) that it became one of the first dishes I made for the HUBS when we were dating. He loved it so much that he made it for his parents...and well we got married. Coincidence? I think not 😂. Fast forward 20 years, the HUBS and I recently came across a Petro and tried the real thing again. It was as delicious as I remember.
After trying the dish again, I was inspired to try recreating the dish fused with the Fresh & Easy canned vegetarian chili (which is delicious and unfortunately no longer exists). This recipe is the result and was designated with the name "petrini" by the HUBS.
All this being said, if you are looking for a 5 min or less sort of dinner, than my Petro recipe is a better go to. This requires marginally more effort but is delicious (and freezes well too!). Enjoy!
- 1 tbs butter (substitute with olive oil for vegan)
- 2 tsp minced garlic
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1/8 tsp smoked paprika
- 2 tsp red mirchi (or cayenne pepper)
- 1.5 tsp hot chili seasoning
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- 1/8 tsp cream of tartar powder
- 1/2 tsp Williams Sonoma chili lime seasoning (optional)
- 1 (15 oz) can of Bush Chili Beans (pinto beans in a mild chili sauce)
- 1 (15 oz) can of Kidney Beans (drained)
- 1 (15 oz) can of diced tomatoes
- 1.5 tbs tomato paste
- 1.5 c of frozen corn kernels
- salt to taste (about 3/4 tsp)
- 1 tbs lime juice
- hot sauce of choice for garnish (we ♥ this one)
- sour cream, chopped red onions, tortilla chips, fresh cilantro for garnish
- Melt the butter over medium-low heat.
- Add the minced garlic. Saute until golden.
- Add all the spices & seasonings. Stir until aromatic (~1.5 minutes).
- Add the tomato paste. Mix well.
- Add the canned beans & tomatoes. Cook until simmering.
- Add the corn. Stir well, cover and bring to a light simmer (about 5-7 minutes).
- Serve with garnishes of your choosing. We love to add lots of hot sauce, tortilla chips and fresh red onions!
NOTES: This recipe can be adapted pretty easily for the instapot or slow cookers. For the Instapot users: simply use the saute setting and proceed with the instructions as above (do not cover). For slow cooker users: add all the ingredients into the slow cooker and cook covered for 6-8 hours.

EHS Emissions Tracking
EHS Emissions tracking or greenhouse gas emissions tracking have been in the spotlight for the last few years as the concern over global warming grows. Nations have taken a more aggressive stance towards companies that are responsible for these hazardous emissions. Companies utilizing data management suites like DataPipe EHS have been able to stay compliant with city, state and federal regulations.

The good news is that Noah has been feeling much, much better! He has been the happiest little guy today; we've had a great day together. I was so happy and very thankful to see his sweet smile and to hear him laugh today. I have sure missed his happy little self lately.
Our day started off early around 7:30 am, which sadly, is becoming our normal rise and shine time. After we ate breakfast and got ready for the day, we went to Bible study, and it was wonderful! We've missed a couple weeks for various reasons, so it was so good to dive back into the word of God and fellowship with the wonderful women in my Bible study group. I wasn't sure how Noah would react to going back to Wee-Care, but he loved it! And he did not even cry once. I am so proud of him. I went in to check on him during a break, and he was just so content and happy playing and eating gold fish. I am so thankful for the opportunity for him to be a part of the children's ministry at Christ Chapel. What a blessing!
Tonight Noah and I had our very first Mommy & Son "date" night, and we had the best time. We shared some enchiladas together {I've been on an enchilada kick lately}, and they were so good! I've never been brave enough to try them at Rosa's, but I was pleasantly surprised how tasty they were. Noah thought they were pretty yummy too, although he is more of a tortilla and queso guy. At one point during our meal I gave him a piece of lettuce to try, and his face was priceless. He was not impressed. In fact, you could tell he thought it was disgusting. I really wish I would have gotten a picture of his face.
After we stuffed ourselves full of enchiladas and tortillas, we ran to Target. I am taking a meal tomorrow to a precious woman in our church who just had a baby. I can't wait to meet little Emily! I've seen pictures, but I can't wait to hold her! Anyway... Target! Of course we browsed around for a while before we went to the food section. Noah was precious. So patient & happy. Target, among many other stores, already has their Christmas stuff out. Christmas is my favorite holiday, but it's so sad how Thanksgiving is overlooked every year. We have so much to be thankful for. I have been trying to come up with something creative {like a thanksgiving tradition} to encourage thankfulness with our family every year. I think it is so important to teach our children to be thankful, not just during the Thanksgiving season, but everyday. So when my creative wheels start turning and I come up with something, I'll be sure to share it with you!
But... I am guilty, and I did purchase two things for Christmas that I couldn't pass up. I mean, aren't these plates adorable?!
After looking around for a little bit, Noah started getting to the point where he wanted to stand up in the cart. That's always the point where I start to wrap it up and head over to a check out lane because you can bet a crying fit is about to happen. After wrestling with Noah for a couple minutes and trying to get him to sit down, we compromised and I let him sit sideways in the seat so he could look behind him. I looked at my list of what I needed and put a couple of things in the cart, and then Noah started doing the cutest thing! Occasionally I would pick something up and give it to Noah to hold, but instead of holding on to it he would turn around and drop it into the back of the cart. At one point he even grabbed my shopping list and thew it in the cart. He loved it! Here is Mommy's big helper!

HO Freeride Waterski W/FreeMax ART | 2018-63" 4-8
by HO Sports
HO Freeride Waterski W/FreeMax ART (2018) ANY BOAT, ANY WATER CONDITION Sizes: 63in 65in 67in 69in 71in In 2011 Marcus Brown, Dave Wingerter and Bob LaPoint took a different approach to ski design. They stepped back to look at where and how most boaters and waterskiers spent their time. These people weren't tucked away on private man-made lakes with ski specific boats where most in the competitive waterski community exclusively reside. They were out on larger public lakes, rivers and waterways, behind everything from wakeboard boats to jet skis to fishing boats. From there, the design team developed technology that specifically enhanced the ski experience for free-skiers on these variable water conditions. Since its release in 2012, the Freeride has become the standard in open water waterskiing and continues to encourage waterski exploration the world over. FreeMax Boot: -The perfect, no nonsense, slip them on and enjoy the ride, water ski boots are back! The freeMAX is updated with a static lace in the lower lace zone, a footbed anchoring system and new lace management, so you can save your strength for carving up the lake.

The Fruits of Life
After I finished it I mounted a natural handmade paper on wood and then mounted the painting on top and attached some wire to the back for hanging. It always amazes me how I start out with a certain direction in mind and it turns out to have a mind of it's own. I do wonder how I manage to accomplish things sometimes.
Oh well, I got it done and that's what counts in the end.

Banking on Profit by Tim Melvin
Bank stock recommendations from a value investing icon.
There's an untapped treasure trove of value in under-the-radar bank stocks. Tim Melvin calls the banking sector his "Trade of the Decade," and for good reason: the banking sector is home to some of the market's biggest bargains. In Banking on Profit, Tim Melvin will help you find the most promising plays.
See more here.
Banking on Profit by Tim Melvin
As a leading voice on value investing and a writer for "Real Money," Tim Melvin knows his stuff. So when he dubbed local and regional bank stocks as his "trade of the decade," he raised eyebrows on Wall Street and across the world.
With nearly a bank on every corner nowadays—it's easy to see that this industry is "overbanked." And the only way these small banks have to grow their business is to expand their market share by buying other banks.
This is a FANTASTIC "predicament" for investors who like to make money! Because, with a glut of cheap banks poised for acquisitions and mergers, there's plenty of opportunity to multiply your investment.
And investors who utilize Banking on Profit to determine which small banks could double, triple, or quadruple in size—have the potential to make millions in the process.
With Banking on Profit, you'll enjoy access to Tim Melvin's portfolio of undervalued bank stocks and receive his well-researched trade recommendations in real-time.
Many of the recommendations will be for banks with market caps below $50 million.
These nano-cap banks are a virtual gold mine because they're flying under the radar of mainstream investors. You can't call up your broker and request research reports on these small banks.
They're simply not big enough for brokers to cover. That's where Tim Melvin's expertise comes into play…
He digs deep through disclosures to identify the small banks whose shares trade below tangible book value. He only provides recommendations for stocks that meet his strict criteria for a healthy, deep-value bank:
As a Banking on Profit subscriber, you'll enjoy:
- The stock is selling below tangible book value
- Has tangible equity-to-assets ratio of at least 5%
- Has a non-performing loans ratio below 2%
- Has a loan loss reserves to non-performing loans ratio of at least 1
- Real-time Recommendations: Each trade is chosen due to its potential to multiply your profits. The moment Tim finds an opportunity, he'll send a real-time buy alert straight to your email inbox.
- Plain-English Commentary: Tim also emails you with easy-to-understand details on why he thinks the stock has the potential to soar.
- Weekly Insight and Analysis: You'll receive weekly insight from Tim on everything banking- and deep-value related. As well as what small stocks he's eyeing, which ones are surprising him with their earnings reports, and potential opportunities in the sector.
- Full Access to Tim's Independently Verified Portfolio: You'll get full range to view his previous recommendations—including up-to-date growth and portfolio returns.
- Exclusive One-on-One Messaging: Tim is available to answer any questions you have about banking sectors, current opportunities, or value investing in general. You can also message him to ask whether there's still time to get into previous recommendations. Either way, you get unlimited access to Tim Melvin's nearly three decades of industry experience!
- "Insider's access" to the Banking Industry: Tim's ability to analyze disclosures gives him enormous insight on nano-cap stocks flying under Wall Street's radar. You won't find information on these "little guys" anywhere else!

Tim Melvin
As a 27-year veteran of the financial services and investment industry I've served as a broker, advisor, and portfolio manager. I've combined this nearly three decades of experience with my love of value investing in order to help investors worldwide to multiply profits and build their nest eggs.
As an avid value investor, I'm a strict practitioner of "asset based value investing" in the tradition of Graham, Schloss, and Whitman. Never having attended B-School, except as a lecturer—I take pride in the fact that I've not been corrupted by EMH, CAPM, or other silly theories that harm long-term investors.
I've written and lectured extensively on the markets, with work appearing on RealMoney.com, DailySpeculation.com, as well as numerous articles posted in Active Trader and the Wall Street Digest. I've published several investment guides in Wiley's "Little Book of" Investment Series.
I'm also the author of the Junior Chamber Course on Value Investing— an education program geared towards young adults that teaches the principles and techniques of basic value investing, conveying Graham's principles to a new generation of investors.
In my personal life I'm married with three children, recently abandoning the brutal cold of the Northeast for the warmth and distraction that a life in Windermere, Florida, provides. I'm an ardent fan of baseball, books, and burgundy as well as palm trees, pelicans, and alligators.
