Mr. Michael Williams The Start Speaking Training Center, LLC
Getting my app development done was a big challenge for me as my app was a unique concept and I had no clue where to look up. In such obscure situation, Octal emerged as a savior for me. Their expertise in app development not only conceptualized my idea perfectly well, but also gave me precious suggestions to make it even better.
Mr. Dan Abeling NBL Media LLC
The kind of development services Octal delivered was expected. I contacted them at a very crucial time where it was essential for me to live my website at the scheduled date, but there were many obstacles coming across to achieve this. Octal provided me a team of experts who took the project up and started executing things right of the bat helping me have its timely release.
Mr. Rocco Vogel WorldNews
Octal IT Solution ascertains quality no matter how hard they have to hit the hammer. I experienced this when I got a chance to get the development for my app and website done recently. Their expertise in PHP, CMS, e-commerce and many other web development platforms ensure quality as well as the touch of innovation it gets. It is a great degree of pleasure for me to work with Octal.
Mr. Dennis Dicker Cyndescope
Working with Octal was a great pleasure and I must mention that the work that I have got done from this team is beyond my expectations. Thus, opting for Octal proved to be a correct decision for me. If an urgency of completing a piece of project was implied, the efficient t team Octal responded with no delay in delivering. In terms of communication and working environment, this is the best experience I've ever had.
Mr. Ayyaz Ahmed Payment Wallet App Startup
From the documentation phase to the final proposal discussions, it was outstanding to interact with them. They understood our expectations and gave us confidence. Furthermore, they exhibited an excellent understanding of both the e-wallet domain and the legal aspects of the project.
Mr. Saurabh Jha Playing11 Pvt. Ltd.
I was looking for a development partner that has sound knowledge and experience with fantasy apps. Since Octal IT Solution had developed several similar apps, they were my first choice. Second, they completely justify their tag line which is "technology outsourcing simplified". Instead of using technical jargon or complicating situations, they just simplify what they do. This is what I loved about them.

'm so glad you made it here. You obviously know a good thing when you see it.
The wine Mr Nose has sniffed out for you this month is not of the cheap and cheerful kind; it's so good it's sure to knock the socks off your dinner guests (assuming they wear socks).
Mr Nose's liquid treasure for April is Amehlo 2003, a Bordeaux-style blend that bagged 4½ stars in the Platter guide! (Not being the trusting sort, this world-weary old hack also checked out the wine bible's assessment with two trade insiders, Harry van den Berg and Bill Cooper-Williams. "Superb," they both said.)
|So Mr Nose managed to bag the last 348 boxes in existence. (A small confession: there were 350 boxes, but Mr Nose decided to celebrate his purchase with a toast and, well, one thing led to another.)
So, now it's your chance.
|The Amehlo 2003 comes packed six bottles to a box. To buy twelve bottles – the minimum order – or more, select the quantity you want and click the "Buy Now" button below .... (Delivery is included in the price)

Thank Obama policies for prosperous 2017
Re "Middle class got some good news in 2017" (Dec. 24): Other than stock prices, any good economic news in 2017 accrues to the momentum of Obama-era policies, not cuts in regulations or taxes that haven't set in yet.
Old rubric about corporate income taxes was corporations don't pay them, consumers do. So one test for AT&T will be if it now lowers prices. Its rate for my cable/land line just went up, so I'm a skeptic.
American companies were already sitting on a $2.3 trillion cash hoard. Hard to see how giving them more cash will set off a frenzy of new investing. I do hear spending on robotics is up, which won't help the middle class long term. And what ever happened to paying for tax cuts by closing corporate loopholes?
The proof is in next year's pudding.
Bob Schmidt
La Jolla
Burt Smith ("Trump's first year shows he's winning" Dec. 24) cites "facts in a nutshell" in praising Trump's 3.3 percent economic growth and Barack Obama's was never higher than 1.4 percent. Not so. Except for 2009, the first year of the Obama administration, where GDP shrunk by 2.8%, continuing the economic slide from the Bush Administration, the Obama Administration's annual GDP growth averaged 2.1 percent and never was lower than 1.6 percent.
Smith also writes, "…manufacturing jobs surging with sector unemployment at 2.6 percent", but Trump inherited a manufacturing unemployment rate of 3.9 percent when he was elected.
Actually, overall job growth under President Trump from February to August of this year (1,189,000 jobs) lags the number of jobs created under the Obama administration for the same period in 2016 (1,422,000 jobs).
Trump may not get enough credit for the economy's performance, but he continues to argue that he hit a home run when, in reality, he started out at third base.

Testing a new format
After talking to my husband this morning, I have a few options for posting that I'm going to try. I knew talking to him would help, but he was already in bed last night when I was completely frustrated.
It looks like my biggest problem is that I compose my blog posts using Blogger's "compose" option. While it is user friendly and easy to use (which I really like), it does create some formatting problems when I post.
So, I'm going to try using Microsoft Word's Blog Post composer for a bit and see what happens there. I don't know if it will do everything that I'm looking for it to do, though.
A few months ago I read somewhere (on a blog I don't remember where) about a blog composer that you can download to your desktop. The person who was using it said how great is was and how much she liked it for her blog. I don't think I marked the post that I saw that one, and I really wish I would have now.
I'm still open to suggestion if any of you have some. I want to stay with Blogger, but I could use some new blog composing ideas.

Are you thinking of Microsoft Live Writer? It downloads to your desktop and works with most blog services. I heard about it from someone who uses blogger. I haven't tried it myself yet (it would help if I would start blogging again...) but it sounded great.

"I want to thank Sinazo and the young leaders, for bringing me into sport. If it were not for them, I do not know what I would be doing," said sixteen year old Anita Kanuka from Western Cape township, Mbekweni. From a community riddled with drug and alcohol abuse, Anita left the streets and joined the football field under the guidance and mentorship of female coach Sinazo Magele. Sinazo joined SCORE only a year ago, but within this short time, she has used sport to build friendships and respect from girls in her community. "She is a sister to everyone," continues Anita.
Young leaders like Sinazo can be found in communities that SCORE is working in across South Africa. The organisation uses sport to address the issues youth face in their everyday lives. Last year in the rural community of Tshidimbini, in Limpopo, nineteen year old Rinae Nemakonde gathered the youth together to help combat an alcohol-related problem. "Older members of our community started drinking at the sports facility and no one wanted to play there. We approached these people as a group and asked them to join us in football and netball and then we held a tournament and included them. Now, there is no longer a problem and our sports facility is again a safe environment to play. As the youth, we brought people together and gave sport as something for everyone, now people do not even have time to drink."
In Rinae's team of young leaders is Constance Nyawedzeni Chikhudo, "I kept attending SCORE workshops and they encouraged me to go out and do something for my community. I have become a facilitator and can now speak confident as a young leader and role model for girls to become involved in sport and not sit at home or become pregnant."
Using knowledge from SCORE workshops, Sagwati Request from nearby community Tiyani, believes his role is "to take the youth and advise them on how to lead a proper life by engaging in sport to cope with different challenges. The SCORE workshops guide us on how to be good leaders, with that information we go and implement it in our communities." Organising community leagues, tournaments and community events, and including speakers from various organisations like the local clinic, the young leaders are bring together community stakeholders to actively play a role in educating youth.
McTrevor Makhubele a community volunteer from Mapuve in Limpopo, recently got employed at the Department of Sport, Culture and Recreation in the Greater Giyani Municipality in Limpopo. He reflects on the benefits of being a community volunteer, "I grew up being mentored in sport. Being with SCORE has helped me gain job opportunities and become recognised by community stakeholders. Using the leadership skills I got from SCORE, I am one of the faces at the forefront of our community."
SCORE's mission is to use sport to provide children and the youth with valuable skills and opportunities that they need to succeed in life and to contribute to their communities. As these young people gain skills and experience, they change their own lives and the lives of those in the communities around them.
Community volunteer Ebrahim August from Dysselsdorp in the Western Cape, sums it up: "SCORE has brought sport to inspire and motivate our community to leave drugs and seek personal transformation. This leads to group transformation, which leads to continental transformation, which leads to global transformation."
To help SCORE continue training young leaders to make a difference using sport, donate to the SANGONeT "No Pain No Gain" campaign today, by making a donation at http://www.givengain.com/activist/55367/projects/1333.

This week we're looking at GDPR and email marketing. It's one of the biggest worries for entrepreneurs, as a lot of news articles and blog posts paint a pretty grim picture for businesses who want to keep growing their subscriber lists. But first…. Read More
Monthly Archives: March 2018
GDPR (or the General Data Protection Regulation, to use its full title) is everywhere you look at the moment. And understandably so. It's a big change. But is it as scary as everyone keeps saying? I get it. On the surface, marketing & GDPR don't seem obvious BFFs. When I started to do my research on the topic, I was crapping myself just like everyone else.
How would it affect my marketing?
Would my email subscriber numbers fall off a cliff?
What about my ad strategy – would anyone actually opt in to my opt ins anymore?
So. You need to send a cold email pitch. Let me guess. Your toes are curling even at the thought. I know the deal. You spend forever and five days coming up with the email; refining, reviewing, restarting, ripping it all up and resolving to move to an ashram in the Himalayas where you won't ever have to pitch again. But then you remember you have me to help. So here goes, a guide to how to write a cold email pitch without losing hair, sleep or sanity. Read More

BOSTON — The elongated yell could be heard throughout Fenway Park and the pose and glare into the Red Sox dugout was vintage Marcus Stroman.
Of course, the reaction from Red Sox fans and its on-air broadcasters, including former pitcher Dennis Eckersley, was also typical of those who love to hate on the talented Jays pitcher.
But also vintage was Stroman's performance on a brilliant summer Sunday afternoon, a tour de force six innings of shutout pitching against the reigning World Series champs as the Jays cruised to a 6-1 win.
As is his way, Stroman made no apologies for his "yeah" yell after striking out Eduardo Nunez to end the sixth inning, a punctuated emotional release that is a big part of the Stro Show.
And really, why should he feel the need to defend what he did as the Jays capped off a 2-1 series win against the Red Sox here in a park where they've been destroyed for the past three seasons?
"Sunday. It's Boston. It's however many people here screaming," Stroman began. "Defending world champs. To limit that team to no runs over six? It's huge. It's hard to do.
"That's me just showing emotion. The passion I have for the game. I couldn't care less who judges me or who says anything about it. They cannot keep me quiet."
Some will try, but frankly that only seems to motivate Stroman even more. He relishes the big moments just as he is driven to enhance his status as one of the top starting pitchers in baseball. So if Eckersley wants to refer to Stroman's celebration as"tired," bring it on.
Stroman countered the Eckersley shots with the equivalent of a social media eye roll calling the former pitcher "a hypocrite" adding that "he always talks trash."
With his latest brilliant outing, Stroman ensured that the trade talks trailing his name are only going to heat up in the weeks ahead. Always prideful of his ability to deliver in big games, the right-hander's outsized personality clearly is suited to be played out in front of a sold out crowd at the venerable ball park.
"I love it," Jays manager Charlie Montoyo said of his fiery starter, who allowed five hits and struck out six. "That's who he is and that's why he's that good. He competes and he gives you all he's got."
How good has Stroman been this season? Well, with Sunday's effort he lowered his ERA to 3.04, the ninth best in the American League. In his three starts since allowing a season-high six runs to Arizona, Stroman has a minuscule 1.89 ERA.
And in his nine of his 17 starts this season, he's held opponents to one earned run or less, including just one in two outings vs. the Sox.
"It's huge," Stroman said. "It's extremely hard to do with that lineup. The atmosphere here in Boston, it's just hard to win a single game here. To come in and win two, I think it gives us a little bit of momentum going into the next series."
Yes, overall it was a successful Beantown weekend for the Jays, who have had precious little to celebrate on the road this season. But taking two of three from the inconsistent Sox is a nice bit of momentum to tag along to New York where the Jays will face the AL East leading Yankees for the first of three on Monday.
"The last four games (which included a win at home to the Angles) and three games here, it's good baseball," Montoyo said. "It's been good hitting and good defence."
The continued stellar performance of Lourdes Gurriel as a left-fielder has been one of the most unexpected surprises of the season for the Jays.
The Cuban was at it again on Sunday, gunning down Brock Holt at home with a rocket throw from the field to keep what was then a 1-0 lead.
"Pretty soon people are going to stop running down Gurriel," Montoyo said. "He's been very good out there."
Added Stroman: "He looks like he's been playing left field for years. it's shocking and exciting and awesome to see how quickly he's been able to adjust from infield to outfield. It's been almost seamless."
That was just part of the Gurriel story on Sunday as he chipped in at the plate with a 3-for-5 afternoon.
Don't look now, but the Jays are playing .500 baseball (over their past 12 games, anyway) and have won three of their past four. When scoring five runs or more on the road, they now have a 15-4 record.
ROMANO DEMOTED: What did rookie reliever Jordan Romano get for exceptional performances in his past two appearances, a run that included strikeouts of stars Mike Trout, Shohei Ohtani, J.D. Martinez and Andrew Benintendi?
How about a trip back to Buffalo.
Filling a need for some long relief, the Jays recalled inconsistent Sean Reid-Foley from the Bisons on Sunday and sent Romano back to triple A, despite a wildly impressive four-appearance beginning to his big-league career.
So why? It has to to with the reality of the business, the fact that Romano has options and the need for some longer relief, even if it comes in the form of a struggling Reid-Foley.
"The annoying part is that Jordan has pitched great," Jays assistant general manager Joe Sheehan said. "The kid's been really good. It stinks to have to option him. It was really a tough decision.
"From a fan's perspective and a coach's perspective and a front-office perspective I feel like we're all seeing the same pitcher."
Sheehan and the Jays management team is well aware of the perception associated with demoting a player whose lighting it up, but assured the move will be a temporary one.
"Having him go into Yankee Stadium (for a three-game series that begins on Monday would have been great as well," Sheehan said. "But he'll be back. We think very highly of him."

Why Won't New York City Schools Chancellor Cathie Black Talk to the Press?
On her first day on the job, Cathie Black barely talked to reporters. Now her office won't respond to press requests about her schedule. What gives?
Given that she comes from a media background you would think the Chancellor-designee of New York City's public schools, former Hearst Magazines Chairman Cathie Black, would be comfortable talking to the press. But on her first day on the job, Black barely spoke to reporters, and side-stepped more substantive questions from a crowd of parents. Now Black's office reportedly isn't responding to requests from New York City media about her schedule and public appearances.
According to the New York Daily News, the city's education department press secretary Natalie Ravitz said they wouldn't reveal Black's schedule because:

I had a good time with these people taking all the pain to organize my trip and all I had to do is just take the Iternary from them and follow it as in what all is written. The only glitch was the Volvo bus towards himachal. But then the return journey compensated for the same. I would surely recommend shoes on loose to others and would love to take your service gain. Thanks for making our trip memorable and easy.

Oklahoma said, "Yes!" State Question 788 passed on June 26th. The first medical marijuana clinic in the state, the Tulsa Higher Care Clinic, was already prepped and ready and opened just one day later. But not all the rules are in place just yet.
Officials met in this past week to address medical marijuana emergency rules. The Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Authority is to be the new governing agency for cannabis is the state. Dispensary applications accepted Aug. 25.
Advice to those in the Medical Marijuana Industry: Be Patient
Voters came out in droves for the election – casting more votes than during the 2014 general election. Now, that medical marijuana is legal, the state must get busy busy implementing the legal framework. The Oklahoma State Department of Health (OSDH) released a statement concerning SQ788. The statement is encouraging to the industry. Consumers can go to omma.ok.gov for information. They ask that people don't visit their offices though to ask questions. The Department concluded its statement with the following:
"The application process will be available at the required time and will be enhanced in the coming months.. It may take some time to fully implement all of the steps recommended in preparation for this new program, but we will continue to work to meet the letter of the law and to protect the health and safety of all Oklahomans."
Law Passes, But Not Everyone Seems on Board
The Governor of Oklahoma, Mary Fallin has never been a supporter of medical marijuana. She repeatedly voiced her concerns throughout the campaign. Now, her decision to not hold a special session after the law passing is raising eyebrows. The cannabis industry wants a special session to ensure implementation goes smoothly. One group, New Health Solutions Oklahoma sent a 4-page memo outlining why they believe such a session is critical for Oklahoma medical marijuana patients and future dispensary owners.
The group feels that developing a state marijuana program and its related rules and regulations, takes a lot more time than Gov. Fallin is planning on having the legislature spend. Furthermore, the group added that the rules already included in SQ788 are not comprehensive enough and don't cover other critical issues within the cannabis industry (e.g. labs and inventory tracking systems). Without these in place, the group feels that implementation will stall, and the black market will gain a foothold.
Emergency Rules are Enough for Right Now, Says Gov.
The group wants cannabis conditions statute-based and not merely agency-regulated. The Oklahoma State Board of Health released an updated set of rules for medical marijuana on July 8th. These rules are in addition to the emergency ones previously released prior to the Oklahoma vote. The Oklahoma State Medical Association also wanted three more recommendations added:
- Eliminating smokable cannabis as is the case in other states. Instead, dispensaries should only offer medical marijuana products that are more easily measured for doses, such as certain edibles, oils and sublingual delivery methods.
- Requiring pharmacists to be in the dispensaries and part of the approval process.
- Limiting the initial number of dispensaries and locations to 50, as requested by the cannabis industry.
Signed, Sealed and Delivered…and a Bunch Added
The Oklahoma State Board of Health reviewed and accepted the rules on July 10th. One of the major rules approved bans the sale of smokable marijuana at dispensaries. Additionally, the rules require a pharmacist at dispensaries. Already, proponents of medical marijuana in Oklahoma are voicing concerns over the updated rules. These two stipulations were not originally in the emergency rules.
Fallin had previously announced she would hold a special session if SQ788 passed. Now, she says that is not necessary. A few highlights from Fallin's official statement:
"After conferring with House and Senate leaders, we believe a special legislative session is not necessary to implement provisions of State Question 788. The Oklahoma State Department of Health has developed emergency rules that will ensure the health and safety of Oklahomans as well as being fair and balanced for the marijuana industry.
The voters have spoken, and it's important that our state has a responsible system up and running to meet the deadlines outlined in State Question 788. If circumstances develop that adjustments to the Health Department rules are necessary, those can be addressed when lawmakers return in regular session early next year."
Fallin's Medical Marijuana Decision Risky?
Experts in the industry fear too little regulation makes the Oklahoma market risky for investors and dispensaries. They want specifics. And they feel now is the best time to address these. Some interpret Fallin's move in an even more negative light. Some think it is all about politics.
By not holding a special session, some believe it is an attempt to push off real implementation and cause delays. This is also an off-season for elections, so some believe that no one minds delays because they aren't seeking reelection. A few other states have been brought into the conversation too, because they passed similar cannabis bills and their implementation has lingered for years (e.g. Massachusetts, Maine, Louisiana, and Alaska).
Nothing to Worry About
The Governor's office though, still insists that a lack of a special session is actually in the best interests of the people of Oklahoma. The Department of Health must start applications by July 26th. A recent statement by the Governor in response to the no-session announcement, states that,
"Emergency rules are the most promising path to success at this time. The Health Department has been working with 17 other agencies the past three months on emergency rules to develop a medical and proper regulatory framework for implementing State Question 788. This is much quicker and more cost-efficient than attempting to go through a special legislative session during an election cycle, and it is more likely to be successful in putting a framework in place in this very short time period and to get the process actually started as required by the law passed by the people."

Set to spray three shade gardens - East TexasI set up mine to sweep three shade gardens in a pass. Took a while to find the right water flow pattern and pressure. Love the low volume function. Uses less water than expected. Watered the three beds nicely. Semi-random pattern of spraying water is nice coverage.
The best sprinkler ever!High quality, well made metal construction, reached the ENTIRE yard and has multiple patterns and adjustments.
I like brassYes it's quiet and cute and it does have 2 worthwhie spray patterns. Sending a single stream a long distance with very little water inbetween seems odd. Interesting concept but I see that a good brass pulse sprinkler still offers many more spray options. With the added benefit of metronomic sussuration. . . .
Sprinkler works great!It works great and I love it. I think it will hold up to the extreme heat and sun in southern New Mexico.
BUT: I agree: where is the instruction manual? The controls for the degrees of a circle are a little confusing, and what is that cute red slider button for?
Response By: Garrett Wade Tech Department
Thank you for your review on the German Circular Sprinker. We're glad to hear you are pleased with it! Please give our technician a call at 1-800-221-2942. He'll be happy to answer the questions you have about it.
Exquisite FunctionalityI was a bit dubious when I first opened the box and wondered if this would really be the sprinkler that could hold up to our harsh Texas weather that a half dozen other styles of sprinklers had not. The weight and strength of this sprinkler made it clear this is one that would last. The controls are simple to operate and effective--when you put them in a spot they stay, the coverage is well controlled and the water goes exactly where you want. bogie
SprinklerGreat product. Quality with reliability. Tremendous value over time.
Were's the Instruction ManualSeems to work well, but I am not sure I am using it optimally. Could use more info than three vague pictures.
Well Built SprinklerThis sprinkler is well built and the fit and finish seem very good. It also puts out some nice spray patterns. Just don't forget to turn it off....it is almost completely silent when it is operating. It wont keep you awake when your taking an afternoon nap on the deck...
Best Sprinkler EverI love this sprinkler. It is completely adjustable. The rotation mechanism works so well, there is no extra lingering at the outer parameters like on so many other sprinklers. You know the kind, where the outer edges get twice the water as the middle? Not with this one. Smooth. Efficient. The base is heavy enough so that it stays in place without having to put a rock on it, or wrestle with the hose. The nozzle can be adjusted so that the water flows in a high arc, or kept low, or anything in between. I want another one!

A new bar has opened in Newtown and they're letting you choose your own drinking soundtrack for the night, which is basically the dream, right? Deep Groove is the newest kid to set up camp on King Street in Newtown. The vinyl record bar (insert nostalgia here) encourages happy patrons to select a track while ordering a brew.
The process is pretty simple—you go to the bar, order your drink, choose your track from their impressive selection of vinyl (or, you know, off their iPad), and then wait for your song to come on. It's basically like requesting a song at your high school dance, without the awkward teenagers and with a lot more booze—oh, and music that's actually good. At Deep Groove, they don't discriminate, so one minute you'll be listening to Beyoncé and the next, it'll be The Beatles.
They also run a mean $10 daily happy hour, from 5pm to 7pm—you know what to do.

I recently attended a gathering in San Francisco. While admiring the beautiful garden, I saw a pot that took my breath away! I mentioned it to the home owner and she introduced me to a fellow guest who was the artist. Jacqueline shared pictures of some of her art and I immediately knew I had to share it with you.
I was born in London to an artistic family. My father was a cartoonist and painter. I came of age in the 1960's and after finishing art school I became a graphic designer in London, at the same time continuing classes in ceramics in the evenings. I moved to the United States in 1979 and worked in graphics until 1980, when the computer industry took over the graphics world. It was a world that I didn't want to be a part of. I took a huge leap of faith, quit my well paying graphics job, and started making ceramics. I basically became the proverbial starving artist for the first year. Thankfully I made the right choice and now enjoy my career both making and teaching ceramics.
I am a painter that uses clay as the canvas. I generally use uncomplicated forms that allow me the space I need for my design. I'm interested in the human condition. Why people decorate themselves with tattoos, their home with pigment, hand woven fabric garments or decorated plates.
My love of travel never fails to inspire me, from the geometric textiles of Nigeria, Russian and Scandinavian wood painting, Mexican and Spanish folk art, as well as typographical design from around the world.
The blue pot is the inspiration for featuring Jacqueline. She explained that she made a mold from a golf ball and used that to cast the decoration.
The purses are vintage finds at thrift stores that she embellished.
And here she makes me smile with these wonderful whimsical shoes.
If you are in the area you might visit Jacqueline at her sale of fabulous things. Be sure to tell her you saw them on my blog.

EDITOR'S NOTE: Pinnacle Renewable Energy has been coming on strong in the global industrial wood pellet industry and by the end of the year will have eight plants in operation. The company's production facilities are all located on major rail lines allowing for efficient rail transport to one of two shipping terminals on the BC coast: Pinnacle's wholly owned Westview terminal in Prince Rupert, and the Fibreco Terminal at Port of Vancouver. Pinnacle has entered into long-term take-or-pay contracts with utilities in the UK, Europe and Asia that represent 100% of its production capacity through 2021 and nearly 80% of production capacity through 2026. In early February Pinnacle Renewable Holdings Inc. announced the successful closing of its initial public offering and secondary offering of its common shares.
Rob McCurdy was appointed Chief Executive Officer of Pinnacle Renewable Energy in August 2012. His international career has spanned the chemical, construction materials and mining industries in Canada, the U.S., Asia and Europe in successively senior roles. Before joining Pinnacle, McCurdy spent more than 12 years with a world leading producer of building materials. Most recently he was their managing director for India, overseeing 80 manufacturing plants nationwide in a fast growing market. He was responsible for turning this newly acquired business around financially and setting the course to double its size in five years. Prior to this, McCurdy was based in Paris where he served as the corporate vice president of Quality, Manufacturing and Vertical Integration for this global business. McCurdy earned his B.Sc with Honors from Queens University in 1980 and his EMBA from Carnegie Mellon in 1997.
McCurdy will be one of the opening day keynote speakers at the Wood Bioenergy Conference & Expo to be held April 11-12 at the Omni Hotel at CNN Center in Atlanta. He will speak on "Pinnacle's Pursuit to Own Safety and Drive Results in the Wood Pellet Industry."
WB: Can you expand a little bit on the subject of your talk at the Wood Bioenergy Conference & Expo that's coming up?
McCurdy: Pinnacle's Owning Safety Culture is all about engaging our people. During our journey we have learned firsthand how great safety requires not only top down leadership, it also requires bottom up engagement, focus and persistence. As we have engaged our people on safety and improved safety results we have also seen significantly improved operational results. Great safety pays!
WB: What is the status of the Entwistle, Alberta plant construction and startup? Also the status of the Smithers, BC plant? And with the additions of those two plants, what will Pinnacle's new production capacity be?
McCurdy: Pinnacle's 400,000 MT/yr Entwistle plant will begin commissioning in March and April; commissioning will last approximately one year. Pinnacle's Smithers plant will be a joint venture with 30% ownership held by West Fraser Timber Co. Ltd. The plant will begin commissioning production in Q4, 2018. The Smithers plant will have a production capacity of 125,000 MT/yr and is sized to match the readily available fiber in the area. Adding both Entwistle and Smithers production will bring Pinnacle's new production capacity to almost 2 million tonnes.
WB: Looking at the new plants versus the six already in production, what has Pinnacle learned from its existing plant operations that it is trying to implement into its new plants, whether it's technology, safety measures, culture, etc.?
McCurdy: With every new facility we incorporate learnings from past facilities and experiences where possible. Refined designs will support our Owning Safety culture while the early integration of new safety systems as well as production measures are expected to deliver our planned results safely, on time and on budget. We also go back and retrofit our old plants as we make improvements.
WB: After the two plants come into production, roughly what percentage of your pellets will be exported overseas? And of that export, what percentage roughly will go to electric utilities markets?
McCurdy: With Pinnacle's Entwistle and Smithers production fully integrated we expect more than 95% of our production to be exported to electric utilities to help decarbonize the power grid.
WB: In the last three years what would you say would be the biggest change or shift in the overseas markets you're trying to reach?
McCurdy: Similar to most industries, we see the global pellet market continuing to evolve. We have seen exciting new future demand growth in Asia. That said, pellet consumption in Asia is still very much in its infancy.
WB: You've recently completed a public offering. Why was the timing right to do that?
McCurdy: The timing of the IPO was designed to facilitate our growth.

Well, since I have had both online BDSM play and RL BDSM play, I have to say RL is much better! But, I met Daddy online and we played that way for over a year. It can be done. With communication and openness to things, you make it work.
Online you are restricted to only being able to do a few things on your own. Like popping your butt with paddles! When you have a vivid imagination like I do, and a Daddy that can describe things to feed that imagination, and fingers and toys that can do the rest to build you up to that release, it works.
In a LDR it has to work when you can't get together on a regular basis. But, when you can be in the same space it's amazing!! And you take advantage of every moment you have together to experience the things you have found you love as well as trying new things together.

Palki is an Indian restaurant located on Commercial Drive in Vancouver. The inside of the restaurant is modern and clean but still has traditional Indian touches. It was a lot nicer inside than a lot of Indian restaurants I've been to and it was the perfect atmosphere for a nice relaxing dinner.
The menu looked like a little book which I thought was cute. The menu was full of a variety of appetizers, tandoor specials and different meat and vegetarian curry dishes.
I love mangoes and fruity drinks so I started off by ordering a mango lassi. The mango lassi was my favourite part of the whole meal. I don't mean that as any insult to the food because it was also good but I found this drink especially delicious. Burger Knight isn't a huge fan of mangoes and he had one sip of mine and had to order one. The drink was sweet but it was offset by the tartness of the yogurt. I was told that they make their own yogurt in house and I definitely noticed a difference because it was deliciously thick and creamy. The mango flavor stood out which I liked because sometimes mango is gets over shadowed by other flavors. I highly recommend this drink.
For an appetizer we ordered chicken pakora. The boneless pieces of chicken were juicy and very large especially compared to other restaurants. The batter was crispy and light and they were served fresh and hot. We both really liked this dish and it was our favourite of the night.
The chicken was served with two dipping sauces. The green one is a mint cilantro sauce and the brown one is a sweet tamarind sauce. Both of the sauces were tasty and flavorful and it was hard to decide which one was better. I slightly preferred the mint cilantro sauce since its one of my favourite spices but the tamarind was so different it was hard to compare them.
Next up was the chicken tikka dish which was pieces of boneless chicken marinated in yogurt and Indian spiced and grilled in the tandoor. The flavor of the yogurt stood out in the chicken and the meat was moist. The plate comes out sizzling hot and I like the smokey flavor that cooking it in the tandoor adds to the meat.
For a curry dish we ordered the beef vindaloo at a medium level of spice. I don't see tons of beef curry dishes on Indian menus so I was interested to try one. Vindaloo is my favourite type of curry sauce because it comes with potatoes and I like the tartness the vinegar in the sauce adds to the dish. I was surprised at how much meat was in the dish. The pieces of beef were soft and soaked up the yummy sauce nicely. The medium spice was a good balance and not overly spicy.
We also ordered some plain rice on the side to soak up the curry sauce. The rice was light and fluffy and its the perfect carrier for the extra curry sauce.
You can't eat Indian food without ordering naan so we got an order of plain and an order of garlic. Above is a pictures of the plain naan. Call me boring but my favourite kind of naan is plain. Naan is already perfect so why mess with it by adding other things?
Burger Knight on the other hand preferred the garlic naan. Both of the naan were light and fluffy and had some nice crispy pieces on the outside from the tandoor.
Everything we ordered from Palki was fresh and tasted great. The service was very friendly and we both were thoroughly impressed with our meal. All of the dishes were good portion sizes for the price and we would come here again if we are ever in the area.
Yes for authentic tasty Indian food in Vancouver.
Disclosure: I did not pay for my meal.

Liturgical Colour : White
Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, on this day we listened to the words of the Scripture telling us about the the healing which the Lord Jesus performed on a person who suffered from leprosy. The leper came up to Him and begged Him to heal his afflictions. The Lord was moved by the faith and the effort showed by the leper, and He healed him from the leprosy, allowing the leper to return to the larger community from where he had been exiled from.
And this is linked to what we have heard in the first reading today, the Epistle that St. Paul wrote to the people and the faithful among the Jewish community, reminding them of the need for conversion of hearts and minds, to turn away from their past sinful ways and actions. It was mentioned how sin is the fruit of rebelliousness of man, who disobeyed God and refused to listen to His will. And the reason for this link, is because sin is also a form of sickness.
If leprosy is a disease that strikes at the flesh, damaging the muscles and the tissues of our body, which eventually can cause death unless it is treated and managed, then sin is also a disease that is far more serious, as it affects very deeply within our beings, corrupting and attacking at the very souls and cores of our whole beings. This corruption will end up causing us, our whole being, to fall deeper and deeper in the trap of sin, and eventually, may fall into eternal damnation.
In order to be healed, it is often that we cannot heal ourselves just by waiting and doing nothing at all. We will need to actively seek for healing, by coming to those who are able to heal us. That was how many of us managed to be healed, because we got our conditions diagnosed properly and then received the right medicine to help us to recover from the illness or sickness as quickly as possible.
In the same way, we also need healing for our sins, to be touched by God Who is able to forgive us from our sins. It is by God's grace and forgiveness alone that we can be healed from our sins. Unless we humble ourselves before God and seek His love and mercy, it may be very difficult for us to overcome this great obstacle of sin, which prevented us from being fully loved and embraced by God.
And unfortunately, the reason for why it is often difficult for us to seek God's mercy is because of our own ego and pride, which became a major obstacle in the journey towards our forgiveness. In our ego and pride, we often think that we cannot go wrong, that we know what is best for us. And we are often reluctant to acknowledge our sins because we fear God's anger, or because we are not sure how we should proceed to settle those sins.
This is caused by our own ignorance and failure to understand and to appreciate the love which God has for each and every one of us. If only we can try to know more about His love and mercy being constantly present in our midst, and accept that generous offer of forgiveness and reconciliation that He had offered to us. Today, we celebrate the feast of a holy man and devout servant of God, whose life can probably be an inspiration for us on how we should become closer in love for God.
St. Anthony the Abbot, also known as St. Anthony the Great lived during the mid fourth century after the birth of Christ, as one of the famous early Christian monks, who helped to popularise the concept of monasticism among the faithful. He lived in then the Roman province of Egypt, born to a wealthy landowning family but then chose to leave everything behind and sold his properties to feed the poor, and went to the desert to be a monk.
St. Anthony lived a life totally devoted to the Lord in seclusion and prayer, and wandered the desert and the caves for many years, leading a very holy and exemplary life. However, the devil did not remain passive amidst all of those years, and actively tried to attack and tempt St. Anthony by various means. It was told that many evil spirits and demons physically and spiritually struck at the holy man, with many temptations. But St. Anthony overcame all of them with prayer.
The holiness and dedication that St. Anthony the Great had shown all of us should become an inspiration on how we should live our own lives in this world. There are indeed plenty of temptations and pressures for us to follow the ways of the world, that is the way of Satan, and not the way of the Lord. And it is indeed difficult to resist those temptations, which will come at any time and from various sources, just as those evil spirits and tempters that attacked St. Anthony had done.
However, we can follow the example shown by St. Anthony, in his prayerful dedication to the Lord, that is his constant and ever-fervent connection with his God, Who is his anchor, strength and protection. With the Lord by his side, St. Anthony was able to resist the temptations of the devil and all of his wicked forces, and became a light of inspiration for countless others among the faithful throughout the subsequent centuries and millennia, to this very day.
Brothers and sisters in Christ, are we able to walk in the footsteps of this holy man of God? We are called in our own respective capacities, in whatever we do in life, to bring glory to God by aligning ourselves closer to Him, and not to succumb to the many temptations of life. We are called to love the Lord ever more, and open ourselves to receive His love and mercy, and not to harden our hearts and minds against Him. That is why we need to pray more, and have good quality of prayerful life from now on, each and every days of our life.
May God, our loving Father, continue to love us and bless us in all of our deeds, and may He continue to guide us in our journey of life, so that in everything we say and do, we will always glorify His Name, and walk in His ways. St. Anthony the Great, holy Abbot and servant of God, pray for us sinners. Amen.

Denver Cat Photography
When you're the lucky companion of a cat, you know you're not the cat's owner. The cat is your equal, maybe superior, amiright? Cats can be just as loving and cuddly as a pup, but others are far more independent and selective with how they relay their affection. Cat shoots are usually way different than dog photo shoots. And sometimes, I think cat people are hesitant to schedule a session, because they think "Oh my cat's not going to cooperate", "my cat will hide the whole time", or "my cat will give the stink eye the whole time". We've had dozens of cats sessions, and I've worked with dozens upon dozens of rescue cats, one on one. I've seen it all.
Why Should You Hire a Professional Cat Photographer?
Most people might not even know that professional cat photography exists until they get a new furry family member and think, hmm, I'd love some great photos of my new furbaby! So here are just a few reasons why YOU should invest in a professional photo shoot for your kitty. 😻
(1) Yes, you have a gazillion photos of your cat on your cell phone (no judgment here!) But, no one can capture your kitty's spunky and goofy personality like a professional cat photographer can. I spent at least an hour on the ground observing and photographing your cat being his/her self, and its within those moments that I am able to capture those unique facial expressions and body movements. In fact, most times, I have a hard time putting my camera down once the session comes to a close… I just love what I do so much! I'm constantly laughing and aww'ing up a storm during these sessions, and my clients tell me they do the same when they get their images.
(2) It's FUN! You may think that a professional photo session is stuffy, boring and tedious. A cat photo session with us is the total opposite! We have fun during our session, and I love getting to play and interact with the cats I photograph, IF the kitty is okay with that, of course! We use toys, treats and have lots of play-time on shoots. My goal is to capture the joy and personality of your cat, and the experience of the shoot itself is sooo crucial to that end. Also, I always bring my assistant/partner/husband, John, along to help. He's usually standing behind me waiving a toy or treat to get the cat's attention. That way YOU can be part of the shoot as well! What's better than photos of your cat? Beautiful, memorable and fun photos of YOU WITH YOUR CAT!!
(3) No matter how long we have with our furkids, it's never long enough. Our cats are our family, but the hardest part of that joy is also the fact that they are only with us for such a short period of time. Celebrate your cat by documenting the beautiful memories and capturing your cat in all his or her glory with photos that last forever. I can't tell you how many times my clients tell me how grateful they are to have the photographs. This is especially so in the case of senior cats who sadly cross the Rainbow Bridge after the session. It's during those times that these photos become absolutely invaluable.
Cat Photography Session with the cutest cat Yin Yueng!!!
Welcome! Here's our video featuring our recent cat photo session with beautiful Yin Yueng. We met Yin Yueng and her mom at their home outside of Denver and had a blast! In this video you'll see me crawling around the ground and Yin Yueng doing her best meowdeling for me. Hope you enjoy the behind the scenes and the final products!
Cat Photoshoots
From waiting 30 minutes for a kitty to come out from underneath the bed to getting the "cold shoulder" for half the session to getting hissed at numerous times… there's nothing we haven't seen. The beauty of my experience is that I get it. Whatever the intricacies with your particular kitty, I've likely seen and handled it before. In addition, I have lenses that work from far away, so if your baby is shy, I can keep my distance and still get incredibly beautiful photos. Humans are also more than welcome to join the pawty!

Times are changing faster these days than they used to. Many more of us now have access to the medicine we have craved for so long. Access to mj has also brought other changes like how we consume it. Some of us still love using a unique glass pipe or smoking a joint. Others are using vape pens and eating edibles all of the time.
When I received my first weed smoker kit, there was a package of RAW Rolling Cones and Raw Cone Tips. I thought to myself, can I just roll a joint please? But, I had no rolling papers so the cones were a must. I now love RAW rolling cones. They remind me of a spliff and the RAW cones smoke great too. I see those prerolls offered at dispensaries and these cones end up looking just like one of them.
I can always go with my handy one hitter, but sometimes I need a nice long session right before I go to bed so that I can get a good night's sleep. So, I watched some videos on how to use a RAW rolling cone. It's easy! I don't think I will ever bother rolling another joint again. I have even started making cones with the rolling paper I when I run out of cones. But, I missed the filters!
First off, I never used to put filters in my joints. I love filters now! I get a lot of filters, even glass filter tips, in my Me Time Box Product smoking subscription box. When I run out of the pre-rolled filters, I will even make these terrible filters by tearing the cardboard from the rolling paper packages. Those suck, but they are better than nothing. With the RAW Rolling Cones, the filter is already in the cone so they are ready to go.
I had no idea what the RAW cone tips were to be honest. They looked like nothing useful. Until it dawned on me to read the package. I felt like an idiot. They are RAW cone filter tips. You roll them up into filters, they even have creases to make it roll evenly. You then have a filter tip just like what you find at the bottom of RAW cones. I simply roll the RAW cone tips into the end of the empty paper and let the rest of the paper funnel out. Then I seal the whole paper with the glue strip.
Now I have made my very own cone and I never have to go without one again. It's amazing that access to our medicine has made smoking so much more efficient. Some people do not know how to use the carb on a glass smoking pipe and I would think, amateurs. Now I feel like I am an amateur. How could I not know how to use so many of these items in my weed smoker kit? I will never look at smoking the same way ever again.

Flat (2 bedrooms) Two roof terraces for a two-bedroom apartment sounds like a pretty sweet deal as it is… This eighth floor home happens to have three. That's right – with sweeping views over Hammersmith Park and the Crescent courtyard, the internal spaces here are all but surrounded by alfresco dining and chillout pockets. One of just a few prestigious units in Television Centre's Architects' Series, this one was designed by Haptic, whose Scandinavian roots permeate the aesthetic of the apartment. There is an overarching feeling of calm and, dare we say, hygge that abounds from the moment you cross the threshold. Contemporary warmth, comfort and efficiency have all been achieved in a flexible space that draws in beams and beams of natural light which bounce off the chevron oak flooring. The layout is rational, yet clever: all functional elements are concentrated within a concrete utility cube at the centre of the plan, around which the living space and eat-in kitchen are organised. Textured timber, polished concrete and cool steel inform the understated palette; together working wonders to warm up the house, whatever the weather. Both with terrace access, the master and guest bedrooms are sumptuously devised, each with an en-suite bathroom and walk in wardrobe. There is such elegance in the spatial drama here. Combine that with unrivaled rooftop panoramas and the lure of TVC's amenities, and you've got yourself a winning trifecta.

The first week of April we will re-evaluate the situation based on the current information that is available.
