Coyote Trapper Westminster
Anytime Animal Control
Call 800-714-8727 and speak with Kim or Mike
Coyote pups are now mobile and this is when the problems start, so don't wait call now!
We are both Coyote experts, and are here to help!
When searching for a coyote expert in Westminster, be sure you do your research first! Lots of companies will try to sell a job with a cage trap in an attempt to effectively trap coyotes. Actually, coyotes are not responsive to entering a cage trap. And they can be difficult to trap if a seasioned coyote professional isnt on the job.
Why do Coyotes come into the city?
First we must understand a coyotes mentality, and use the natural movements and activities against him. Coyotes are animals of opportunity, and adapt to the surroundings to survive. When fires burn all the native habitat in the wild, they have no choise but to go where the food, water, and shelter is.
What makes a Coyote Professional effective?
We cant trap coyotes in a place where there are none. Just because you set a coyote trap doesnt mean a coyote will seek it out and throw himself into it. We need to find indication that the coyote has your property inside his natural route. We need written consent to trap nuisance coyotes, and only you, the property owner can give us that permission. Without it we are poachers. Second of all, we determine the coyote population, and set a proper number of traps, and select coyote lures and baits. It shouldnt be what he is used to smelling all the time for food lures.(Like bringing a ham sandwich to a picnic)
Are Coyotes Dangerous to my Pets?
Yes! Cats are always on the menu for coyotes! Ive seen them go in cat doors after cats and kill them inside homes. They will kill and eat dogs in the back yard, or even on a leash while you walk them, so carry a stick when walking dogs! Pepper spray will fend off a coyote if you are quick on the trigger, so have it in your hand, not in your pocket! Dogs are a prime target durring breading period. They want to eliminate the competition, and want to own the territory by killing all other K-9s.
Do Coyote Fences Work?
We do instal coyote proof barriers which will protect your home and property from coyotes. The fence must be burried underground, and go 7 feet high to assure that a coyote can not jump and grab to pull himself over the fence.
Coyote Trap in Westminster
The California Department of Fish and Game is the governing agency which determines the method of coyote traps we can use to defend your home and property. We may use the following.
Coyote Snares: Coyote snares are my favorite coyote trap to use in Westminster. The coyotes are used to finding small holes in chain link fences and crawling under. Here is where we place a snare of cable with a locking device so after the animal goes through, it closes on its neck, and cant be loosened. The coyote dies very quickly, and domestic dogs are unharmed because they wont continue pulling when they feel the pressure. Dogs will be waiting patiantly for the owner to return and cut the cable. Ive caught several dogs in snares, and never hurt a single one.

Mr. Speaker, we will have a deficit of over $40 billion if we do that—in fact, more than that.
Yesterday, the Prime Minister told the House that the provinces were not doing what needed to be done in the area of health and that the money was not being used properly.
It is a return to an interfering, centralizing government that makes all the decisions here in Ottawa. The simple way of dealing with this problem and preventing any arguments would be to respect the provinces' jurisdictions. It is as simple as that. Health care falls under provincial jurisdiction.
The Prime Minister said yesterday that the provinces were not using the health transfers properly—

General Information
Fissler Blue Point pressure cookers combine healthy nutrition with gentle cooking, since atmospheric oxygen is expelled and the cooking periods are quite short. Vitamins and minerals, as well as nutrients and flavor, are thus preserved. You can see and taste the difference. With Blue Point, you save up to 70% of the regular cooking time and as much as 50% of the energy traditionally used in cooking. Blue Point pressure cookers have two pressure levels, a gentle pressure level for cooking delicate food like vegetables and fish without destroying nutrients, and a speed pressure level for cooking meats and stews quickly. Blue Point pressure cookers are very unique in that they are completely silent. There is no unnerving rattling or hissing while pressure is inside. Once the oxygen is expelled and the valve locks into place, hardly any steam escapes into the air during the cooking process keeping the kitchen cooler. Because there is no steam, there are no cooking odors. Blue Point pressure cookers exceed the minimum safety requirements of Europe and the United States with patented innovative features such as the Euromatic safety valve, residual pressure block, interlocking lid, and automatic steam release. The CookStar all-stove base, comprised of a pure aluminum core and high-quality 18/10 stainless steel, ensures that the base that will never separate or warp. The energy-saving base also provides quick optimal heat distribution, diffusion, and storage without any hot spots. Safe for use on induction stoves and in the dishwasher. Limited lifetime warranty. Made in Germany.

When visionary engineer J.C.R Licklider published Man-Computer Symbiosis in 1960 — a paper outlining how man's intellectual productivity can, and should be significantly increased when partnered with a computer — the creative problems of contemporary artists were perhaps furthest from his mind. But during the 1960s, a digital fever struck the art world. Large numbers of enthused European and North American artists, curators, and theorists focussed their attention on the creative potential of computing. Software, systems, and concepts were tried and tested, and a decade's worth of activity culminated in two landmark exhibitions: Jasia Reichardt's Cybernetic Serendipity at London's ICA and Jack Burnham's Software: Information Technology at New York's Jewish Museum.
Two artists with retrospectives currently showing in the UK caught that initial wave of innovation: German born and New York-based Manfred Mohr, and British born, and still UK-based Ernest Edmonds.
Originally a painter with Constructivist sympathies, Edmonds turned to computer-aided algorithmic painting in 1968. Light Logic, his career-long retrospective at Site Gallery Sheffield, UK, combined early '70s works and original punch cards with a new motion sensitive installation and later video pieces. Edmonds' essential project is an investigation into the variant formal possibilities of a two-dimensional square. In each work the internal bounds of that shape are divided into sectors made visible by the distribution of colour, or the placement of a line. This is a process facilitated by programs designed to filter through combinatorial permutations, defined by Edmonds, until a suitable variation is found and then rendered by hand. A collection of numbered ink drawings from 1974 and 1975 capture the result of this procedure in the exhibition's only monochrome (black and white) works.
Shaping Forms, Ernest Edmonds, 2007
The late '80s saw Edmonds move from canvas and paper to video ...

Howie Long -- Gov't Shutdown RUINING Football for Our Troops
Howie Long Gov't Shutdown RUINING Football For Our Troops
Football legend Howie Long has a message for our government -- GET YOUR CRAP TOGETHER SO TROOPS CAN WATCH SOME NFL FOOTBALL!!
Long says ... due to the standoff in D.C., the Armed Forces network can't operate at full speed --which means no NFL for our soldiers.
The NFL Hall of Famer issued a pretty heartfelt statement about the situation during Sunday's NFL broadcast on FOX ... explaining how NFL broadcasts help our men and women in uniform:
"These games bring a welcome piece of home and a much deserved respite from the dangerous work [the troops] do protecting our liberty."
Long finishes up saying "regardless of politics" ... the whole "NFL on FOX" team wants the shutdown to end soon.
Don't we all.

If you want to boost sales for your online business, Affiliates Pro for Prestashop supplies the right tools to implement the easiest to use and best Affiliate Marketing solution.
Focussed on providing the easiest to use and best Affiliate Marketing solution for PrestaShop, we can find among its features:
- Social Sharing integration
- Banner Management
- Increase Sales through Affiliate Marketing
- Unlimited Affiliates
- Automatic Sign-Ups
- No fees or third-party services
- Integrated Affiliate Management
- Purchase Referral Tracking
- Customer Referral Tracking
- Unified commission rate for orders
- Optional commission for customer sign-ups
Promoting your Business
Affiliates use their marketing resources in several ways to refer orders and new customers:
- Using affiliate links to any section of the site.
- Using banners designed to promote your products and business.
- Using social sharing buttons for products. The system is integrated with the Social Sharing module for that purpose.
To get an idea of how this works, let's take a look at the referral process. Note that this can be used to track referred orders and pay affiliates their commission on orders, but also to refer customers, assuming that you allow affiliates to get a commission per new customer referred.
The Referral Process for Orders and Customers
Affiliates can promote the site and refer sales and customers using their affiliate links. A specific Affiliate Area is providing the necessary resources, including basic affiliate links and banners as well as performance and earnings statistics.
The referral process is as follows:
- An affiliate signs up to the affiliate program of your site. Alternatively, the affiliate is added by an administrator.
- The affiliate accesses the Affiliate Area to obtain her affiliate URL, link and banners.
- The affiliate uses the affiliate links and banners to promote the site through channels like Email, Facebook, Twitter, Google+ …
- Potential customers view the information posted by the affiliate and click the affiliate's link or banner.
- After clicking an affiliate link or banner, the customer places an order and the system recognizes that the order was referred by an affiliate.
- A referral is automatically recorded based on the order placed by the referred customer. The referral holds the commission amount credited to the affiliate and this is taken into account by the system when you request the accumulated totals for a given period to pay your affiliates.

In a statement, Armstrong says he and his family are fans of the show. He says "The Voice" has won over viewers because it helps guide contestants but avoids, in his words, "giving them a complete makeover."
U.S. & World
Besides, Armstrong says, working with Aguilera is "a lot of fun."
As the talent contest field grows more crowded, shows are competing for big-name music stars. "American Idol" is adding Mariah Carey as a judge, and "The X Factor" signed Britney Spears and Demi Lovato.
"The Voice" returns to TV on Sept. 10.

If u had a choice as the Knicks GM who would u take with the #1 overall pick? And please consider the roster we have now.
Me personally, i'd take Oden. IMO u should always take the rare DOMINATE Center. U have a better chance @ a SF with sum skills maybe not as much as Durant, but a good player. Do u know how hard it is 2 find a Center with Oden's skillz? It's once every 5yrs u find a player like Oden. I still think Durant's gonna be the better player @ the end of the day but it's hard 2 find a Center like Oden.

Coffee Reads: 'Coffee Life in Japan'
All products linked here have been independently selected by our editors. We may earn a commission on purchases, as described in our affiliate policy.
For those for like a little culture in their food-based beach reading, Merry White's Coffee Life in Japan offers an academic treatment to a culinary movement—and cultural phenomenon—so often treated lightly.
Tracing the trajectories of coffee's practical evolution (sourcing, preparation, regional tastes) as well as the social implications that came along with cafes in a nation known for its reverence to tea, White winds back and forth through storytelling that situates the brown drink squarely in a place of critical importance to Japanese culture.
From its origins in Brazilian trade (right down to Japanese migrant farm workers shipped off to fazendas) to contemporary cafes offering hand-poured siphons, "aged" beans, or classical-music listening cafés where "to create a more perfect acoustic environment, there are large stuffed animals—teddy bears, polar bears, rabbits, and dogs—sitting here and there on chairs."
Though White jumps back and forth here and there, her ethnographic treatment of the subject is balanced and inquisitive: why and how is craft valued (as in cafes where the mastery of the proprietor is the main draw), versus the cafe setting itself? How does a culture enthralled with meticulousness reconcile micro-controlled hand pouring with, say, coffee beans that may be fraudulently represented or degraded by roast quality, like the "elite" Jamaica Blue Mountain? And most importantly, how does the cafe itself—and coffee, as an originally outsider beverage—function as both respite and rebellion, as both a social space and an anonymous space?
Indeed, many of these questions are translatable across cultures—here in the US, we have plenty of places that push meticulous preparation of bad coffee, and vice versa; or spaces that seem social yet operate in a totally disenfranchised "alone with other people" fashion. That these contradictions are the human condition is one of the clearest takeaways from the book, but White's extensive experience with Japanese culture adds a dimension of seriousness and respect to the worlds in and around coffee that American audiences in particular may find validating. Why not take coffee seriously, and still be contradictory, and human? We are obviously in this game for more than just our palates.
And while White's style is certainly more academic than storycraft, or even narrative nonfiction, her open, direct approach to the combined forces behind coffee's sway over this part of the world (and, it should be added, her willingness to explore feminist questions many other writers wouldn't have thought to ask) should be of of keen interest to anyone who likes coffee, urban spaces, or just Japan. You'll find your eyes opened beyond the new and storied cafes you've heard of and into regional corners and paradoxical tastes, and into the social understanding of coffee as a break from spaces like work and life that, though challenging to all cultures, bear their own Japanese way of being—and have brought forth their own, distinctly Japanese, places of reverent escape.

Years ago I had a rather inexpensive motion alarm system that was two piece..the alarm unit and a fob.
I had the alarm velcroed beneath my gas tank, the fob activated or deactivated the unit. This was nice when traveling and staying at the motels...it gave me some sense of security as I snoozed for the night.
I'm wanting to get another..
..does any one use them...What are you using??
Thank -
God Bless America,

Emails Reveal Teachers' Union Rep Organizing Colorado 'Sickouts'
Emails obtained from an elected union representative of Colorado's Jefferson County Education Association (JCEA) show that the union representative was urging teachers to participate in "sickouts" to protest the decision of a new conservative-led school board to move to a merit pay system.
As Todd Shepherd of The Complete Colorado reports, an email dated September 10th, sent by Lynee Zajac Beck, a science teacher at JeffCo's 21st Century Virtual Academy, states, "Sick Out planned for Friday Aug 19 [sic]. The board just announced they are going to vote on the pay scales at next week's meeting – the 18th."
"It's up to us to spread the word – we must stop work on Friday the 19th – and let the community know why," the email read. "JCEA supports a sick out but they can't officially organize one. It's up to us!"
Shepherd states that Beck later sent out another message correcting the date of action as September 19th. It was on that Friday that the district closed both Standley Lake and Conifer High Schools due to large numbers of teachers calling in sick.
As Breitbart News has reported, protesting students and media accounts attributed the unrest in the school district to a proposal by a JeffCo Board of Education member for a review of the College Board's new AP U.S. History (APUSH) framework. Students later revealed in a video produced by JeffCoTruth.org that their teachers told them they were upset about not getting the raises they thought they deserved.
Shepherd writes that the staff of JeffCo's 21st Century Virtual Academy, which offers full-time and part-time online learning options, are covered by the collective bargaining agreement and are eligible for JCEA membership, though these teachers typically work at home and communicate with students via the Internet.
At an NEA convention in July, Colorado Education Association (CEA) President Kerrie Dallman referred to the JeffCo school district as one of three in her state in which the teachers' union was "working against hostile school boards."
"I also want to say thank you to the staff and leaders from the 18 states around the country who were sending in 48 staff under the NEA shared staffing agreement to help with the crisis in our largest local, Jefferson County," Dallman continued. "These staff will join our leaders and staff to conduct member to member home visits later this month."
John Ford, president of JCEA, told 9News he thinks it's "awesome that students understand and recognize their First Amendment rights and they're taking action."
"Trying to create a board that in some ways purifies our curriculum is a little bit concerning and somewhat chilling," Ford said.
Ford, however, continues to deny the sickouts were "organized" by JCEA. As Chalkbeat Colorado reports:
The Jefferson County Education Association today once again denied any role in the mass teacher absences.
"This was not organized by JCEA but we certainly understand the frustration our teachers and the entire community are experiencing when their school board majority are making decisions in secret, wasting taxpayer dollars, and disrespecting the community's goals for their students," said John Ford, president of the union, in a statement.
Journalist and teacher union expert Mike Antonucci observed at Intercepts that it may be "literally true" that the sickout was not organized by JCEA. Nonetheless, he said, "that doesn't rule out a host of other possibilities." He suggested the walkout could have been organized by CEA, by the NEA UniServ directors Dallman referred to in her NEA address in July, by teachers at the JeffCo high schools with JCEA approval, or by teachers at the high schools with JCEA knowledge of it with no intention to discourage it.
Shepherd observes that The Complete Colorado received an additional mid-September email message from a "self-proclaimed JCEA activist teacher at Golden High School writing 'on behalf of our entire school.'" The email provided instructions for participation in a teacher walkout.
Additionally, the email indicated a plan for a sickout on Monday, September 22nd, but, in fact, Golden High School, along with Jefferson High School, was not shut down due to large teacher absences until one week later.
Test data collected by the Colorado Department of Education shows that more than 90 percent of Jefferson High School tenth graders are not proficient or above in math, and 62 percent are not proficient in reading.
Similarly, at Golden High School, 60 percent of tenth graders are not proficient or above in math, while 27 percent are not proficient in reading.

Here is an excerpt from an outstanding article by a long-time Internet friend of mine, Fr. Andrew Damick. (His blog, Roads from Emmaus, is linked in my sidebar.)
Many times on this blog I have defended human reason from those religious people who would suppress or devalue it. But I have usually failed to point out that it, too, has its limitations. Human reason is God-given and therefore to be treasured by every lover of God, but it certainly is not infallible. Nor can it reach all the way to heaven to find God. Rather, as Fr. Andrew points out, God has come looking for us. Human reason, just like everything else human, needs divine enlightenment to work properly.
Thus, whether speaking of the initial conversion or the ongoing process of growing in holiness, the whole human person must be engaged, but that engagement only works within the context of communion with the Divine. Practically speaking, that means that, even when once inside the Church, we are not called upon to set aside our reason, but rather to be prepared to have it transformed, to realize that we came to the hospital to be healed, not to take up the job of hospital administrator. So there is the need for trust, but it is a trust based in experience, not blind belief.
This discourse probably seems circular, and it is, but then, so is human existence. The point, finally, is that there is nothing wrong with using one's reason, and even feelings, emotion and intuition, in making decisions, even big spiritual ones. The key element is that there be humility in doing so, because humility is the only way to permit communion of any sort, especially the kind needed for communion with the Divine.
When I was a kid, having been given a solidly Christian identity by my parents, I came to believe that the big divide in the world was between believers and atheists. But there are of course very few actual atheists, and even the big-money ones of our own day are mostly just celebrities who will fade when their time comes. What I have learned, through making many foolish decisions of my own and also through my experiences with others and as a cleric, is that the great divide is really between humility and pride.
Pride insists that there must be some human power or set of powers that can apprehend all things. But this really is not so. We are limited creatures. No matter what self-esteem propaganda may have been tossed at you today on a billboard or on Facebook, you are limited. You cannot grow up to be anything you want. You are not limited only by your imagination. You have real limits that go beyond your will. Acknowledging that, and most especially acknowledging deeply within that you will someday die, will transform your outlook into something else.
Epistemology is quite critical, whether it comes in initial conversion to the community of faith or in the ongoing conversion that is needed to attain to authentic holiness. But let me suggest an epistemology of humility. Even if there is no God, such a posture will at least help you to see the flaws in your own reasoning. But if there is a God, then humility will open you up to divine illumination.
I hope you will click on the link at the top of this post and read the rest of Fr. Andrew's post.

STEVENS SQUARE —Youth Performance Company reprises its original production, "MEAN," this month, with 18-year-old Ramon Arroyo in the role of Danny, a high school student who harasses a gay classmate, Nick, because of his sexual orientation.
Arroyo was thrilled to land a role in the play about bullying, but he felt awkward about playing Danny. The Washburn High School graduate has a brother who is gay, and growing up he often heard him being teased by other kids who called him "homo" and "queer."
"At first, I thought, man, I'm disrespecting my brother," he said.
But Arroyo said he also believes in the importance of the message "MEAN" has for the teens and adolescents who are its target audience and whose real-life stories inspired playwright Rita Cannon's script.
"The truth is, people are afraid to speak up about bullying," Arroyo said, adding that "MEAN" not only illustrates the abuse some young people endure in and out of school — and increasingly, it seems, online — but also offers lessons in how and when to speak up. It's a message aimed not just at bullies and their victims, but bystanders, as well.
This is Youth Performance Company's third production of "MEAN" since its spring 2011 debut and, according to Artistic Director Jacie Knight, probably the last for a while. The performances coincide with National Bullying Prevention Month in October, a campaign launched by PACER, the Bloomington-based national education advocacy nonprofit, in 2006.
"It's such a critical issue that so many schools are facing," Knight said. "We think the show is such a great tool, particularly because it promotes discussion between students and teachers about what's going on in their school."
Moving online
Anthony Sims, 17, and Eva Gemlo, 18, both seniors at Central Senior High School in St. Paul, play characters in the two other main storylines in "MEAN," one involving a girl teased about her appearance and another who's made fun of for wearing a hijab.
Asked whether they'd seen or experienced the kind of bullying portrayed in "MEAN," both at first said no. At a big, urban high school, they agreed, it's easy to find a niche, some place where you fit in. Maybe they were teased in middle school, they said, but not much anymore.
But then Gemlo added that "MEAN" led her to examine some of the everyday interactions between her peers in a new light.
"The thing about this show is it really opens your eyes to bullying," Gemlo said.
It's not just about the tough kid who beats up another student for their lunch money, she continued. It can be subtle, snide comments made in school hallways or, as is often the case, online and out of sight.
"It's so sneaky," Gemlo said.
Added Sims: "It's easier to bully someone when it's not face-to-face."
Just weeks into the new school year, Washburn High School Principal Carol Markham-Cousins in a letter to parents addressed several instances of so-called "cyber bullying" via the website Twitter, in which students were targeted with cruel and often profane messages. The prevalence of online bullying today is surprising even to Cannon, the playwright, who is not that far removed from high school.
"I'm only 24, but I feel like the leap forward in the amount of stuff that goes on on the Internet is insane," she said.
New perspective
After directing the show three times, and spending a lot of time talking with her teen cast about bullying, Knight is no longer surprised when she hears a young person say they haven't experienced bullying. She said "kids sometimes have hard time identifying" mean behavior as bullying.
Arroyo, the actor whose younger brother was bullied for being gay, said being in "MEAN" made him reexamine some of his own behavior in school. Looking back, what he thought was playful teasing might have crossed the line.
"I'll be honest: I think I was a little bit toward the bully side," Arroyo said.
For Nathalie Young, 17, a Southwest High School senior, a scene involving her character, Taylor, comes uncomfortably close to a bullying incident Young experienced herself as a middle school student. Young said Taylor is stronger than she was as an adolescent, better able to stand up to bullies, but she's since learned to be that way, too.
Now, Young's attitude is: "If I can stop it, I will."
"It's hard to tell [bullies] to cut it out, but 'MEAN' shows you how to tell them to cut it out," she said.

MYRIDE- Garry Anderson: 1988 Ford Mustang GT
We trust our cars with "precious cargo"– whether family members or trusty construction materials– and safety features are usually a big selling point. But sometimes a brand name alone can be reassuring. Just ask Garry Anderson what drew him to his 1988 Ford Mustang GT.
"I'm just a Ford man," he says.
And while he feels all Fords are special, there's one model Anderson cherishes above the rest.
"I just love Mustangs!" he exclaims.
He's shown that love with lots of labor.
"I overhauled the motor," he says. "It has a new transmission, new wheels, and a new stereo."
Since it's a sports car, Anderson admits that style– rather than safety or practicality– is what makes the Mustang a classic.
"I like the body," he says. "It's a two-door sedan with a sun roof, tinted glass, and bucket seats."
Anderson's primary interest may be the Mustang's aesthetic, but that doesn't make him a reckless driver.
"I've never wrecked it!" he says.
Judging from the reactions Anderson gets when he drives his car around– to work at UVA, or to church– others are just as drawn to his Mustang as he is.
"I've been approached by random people who have offered me money to buy the car," he says.

Parent: Structural issues at son's school don't just happen overnight
Pat McConville concerned after seeing problems at Park Elementary
Pat McConville went for a teacher's conference at his son's school in Munhall last fall and couldn't believe what he saw.
"Peeling paint, exposed wiring, holes in the wall, cracks in the wall, holes in the ceiling, cracks in the ceiling," he told Channel 4 Action News' Paul Van Osdol.
Two months later, after inspectors found multiple violations at Park Elementary, he is frustrated the problems have still not been fixed.
"The school shouldn't have gotten this bad. All these issues don't just happen overnight," said McConville.
McConville, whose son attends first grade at Park Elementary, said he took his complaints to Munhall's building inspector, who found some of the same problems.
But McConville told Van Osdol he's worried whether the building inspector was as thorough as he could have been because he's married to the school board president.
Munhall building inspector David Cannon said he is extra tough on school inspections because his wife is a school board president, but that he could not remember the last time he inspected Park Elementary.
McConville also called the Allegheny County Health Department, which found even more violations.
Steel Valley officials would not allow Channel 4 cameras inside the elementary school due to security concerns, but Superintendent Edward Wehrer said the problems are being fixed.
He told Van Osdol parents should not be concerned for their children's safety.
"There's no reason at all for parents of our students at Park School to have that concern. It is my job to be sure that building is safe. That building is safe," said Wehrer.
McConville said he'll believe that when he sees all the violations corrected.
"I'm very, very disappointed in the school district," he said.
The deadline for code violations to be fixed is Jan. 19.

Cant quite believe my last post was in January. I knew it had been a while but JEEZ! Many apologies im sure you have all been on the edge of your seats to hear about the latest goings on in my life (yes im being sarcastic) So firstly a quick update. I am still working and I am still a non smoker. YEY! High 5s all round.
The website has completely changed and grew quite a lot since I last wrote. I am now working from www.cherishedgifts.co.uk.
That's the basics. What else can I report.
I missed my best friends wedding. Couldn't make the journey and was totally gutted, but I put the memory into a little box in my brain never to be revisited (until blogging). Why dwell on it and upset myself? I didn't make it, I cant change it I can only look forward.
Winter here has lasted forever. Today has been our first day of sun and its really had an effect. I have been feeling very 'flat'. Usually by this time of year we have had a few weeks of sunshine. Im rocking a nice little tan and all the lovely vitamins from the sun have perked me up and im quite a happy soul. The grey gloom has pulled me down a bit, and the demand of the website has caused a few issues.
I have customers who are relying on me. That's pressure. I have deliveries that need to be made on time. That's pressure. If I was to describe the ins and outs I would bore you but lets just say a lot of time and energy needs to go into the business and it all equals pressure and stress which for someone with anxiety, isn't necessarily a good thing.
On the outside im sure I look like im in control. Im doing well. Nathan is doing great, such a happy boy as always. Inside my head is spinning. Join me for 24 hours in my head. ...
Uch its 6 am
What will we do today
I cant travel many places with Nathan. That's not fair on him
Am I a crap mum
Better give him breakfast.
Poor Nathan deserves better than this
Its raining where can we go
We cant stay in all day its not fair on Nathan and I need out
Everyones at work, no one to visit. Cant go anywhere decent on my own with him... too nervous
We will go a walk.
Post mans been. Deliveries. Lets sort these orders.
whos is this, where does this go, need to get these sorted
'be there in a minute Nathan mummies busy'
This isn't fair on him either.
Parcels ready.
Tidy the house, bath time. look out clothes.
Poor Nathan sitting watching tv alone... bored im sure. Bad mum
OK we will go to the post office and the shop. At least we are getting out
Jobs done... now what.
Weve been out for half an hour, that's not enough.
Where to go? We will go a walk.
Ive walked where I can comfortably walk to. Poor Nathan this isn't enough.
Hes pulling to go further but mummys pulling him back in another direction with some excuse.
(passing my relfection in a mirror) god I look tired
I am tired
Im exhausted.
I need to eat better
I eat a lot of junk!
I am getting no goodness from my food
I should really look into getting some vitamins.
I wonder if im ill
Im always tired. Wonder if theres something more to it?
IM awfully thin looking. Not good
And when will I get to a dentist. My teeth are a mess
But im too scared. I don't like that numbness and the fact I cant control it
Lunch time. What to make
Soup again Nathan. Boring. Easy. Crap Mum
What now?
Draw, play? Pass time
Dinner. Mediocre. As long as you eat im happy, but wheres the goodness in that meal. bad mum
Bed time. Story time. Love love love you baby.
He deserves more
He will get more
Ill do better
when im stronger
He has love and a happy home. That's what matters
He is clever and happy. That's what matters
I will make sure he grows up full of dreams and ambition
He wont end up like me
am I making him like me?
Work on the website
lights out. am I ok
im anxious and that had all gone
Am I depressed? ive never been depressed. I don't want to be depressed.
maybe my meds aren't working anymore
do I need to try new ones
I don't want to try new ones
wake up
what will we do today?
Thank god he has nursery so hes being entertained and not stuck with me
And congratulations you have just spent 24 hours in my head. Not good at the moment. But I know why. And I know how to fix it.
I would come on here and tell you all the good things that have been going on. Inspire you to keep pushing. But is it realistic? Yes it can be. It can be all good. I can be easy when in the right frame of mind. But I wanted to be honest and show that sometimes it can be shitty again. But whats important is to recognise what's going on and WHY.
I have been working too much, taking too much on. Not looking after myself. Not eating well enough. Not exercising at all. Not making time for things to help me relax. and I feel that's what I need to focus on now. Natural positivity. But again most importantly im not living in the now. Im not enjoying the moment. I am miles ahead of myself freaking myself out with 'what ifs' that haven't even happened yet. Time to slow down. Chill out and BREATHE!!!
No wonder im exhausted with my head spinning over those subjects ALL day and I mean ALL day. How on earth im not back on the ciggies I will never know but I guess it shows a strength. A strength that I know I have within. And its the strength im holding onto now and I know this, like every other downer, will pass
Live in the now people. Dont dwell on the past or worry about the future. Baby Steps. Day to Day. Breathe. Relax. Be calm. Breathe. Relax. Be calm xxx

Mockery is good. Behold the #spaceape hypothesis: humans clearly evolved in outer space!
Basic Arguments of the Space Ape Theory:
1. we have evolved big brains relative to our bodies because we don't need our bodies to move around in space.
2. we don't have much body hair because what would be the point of a few more follicles worth in 2.73 Kelvin (-270 Celsius)?
3. sinuses, far from being evolutionary spandrels, are little miniature internal space helmets.
4. our outsize eyes clearly show our relation to other species in space.
It's taking off on Twitter, too. Next time someone brings up the soggy monkey story, I'm just going to reply with "Space Ape!"

A Killing at Sea Implicates the Armed Forces in Lawless Venezuela
Around midnight on February 23, Eulalio Bravo, a marine electrician, was dozing in his rack aboard the San Ramon, an oil tanker anchored off the coast of Venezuela.Suddenly, he heard footsteps pounding along the passageway outside. His captain, Jaime Herrera, cried for help."Be still!" an unfamiliar voice ordered.A gun fired.By the time Bravo and eight other shipmates emerged to see what had happened, the captain lay dead, a gunshot in the back of his head. Herrera's stateroom had been pillaged, drawers flung open, his bunk overturned. The killers were gone, as were thousands of dollars the captain kept under lock and key, according to crew members interviewed by Reuters.
Mitigating Underwater Noise
Noise Control Engineering, LLC (NCE) recently completed an underwater radiated noise study for Washington State Ferries (WSF), a study which entailed measurement of nine vessels representing all seven operating classes of WSF vessels, quantifying noise, potential impacts to orcas and other marine life, and methods of reducing noise."With the increasing awareness of underwater noise impacts on marine life, both globally and locally in the Northwest, WSF is interested in learning more about how their operations may impact marine life," said Jesse Spence, President, NCE.
Cruising Pause Has Major Impact on Florida's Economy
The cruise industry has certainly been among businesses hardest hit by the economic impacts of COVID-19. But the industry-rocking fallout extends well beyond the cruise lines themselves, extending through cities throughout Florida where canceled sailings are resulting in loss of revenue to public ports, government at all levels, and private companies that do business with cruise lines.These conclusions are contained in the latest Fact Finding 30 report that was released today by Fact Finding Officer Commissioner Louis E. Sola, of the Federal Maritime Commission.
Sanmar Delivers Tug Pair to Scotland
Earlier this month Sanmar Shipyards delivered a pair of Robert Allan Ltd. designed terminal support/escort tugs to Orkney Islands Council Marine Services, in Scotland. The unique and historical names Odin of Scapa and Thor of Scapa were chosen by a widely supported, local voting exercise launched by the Council in November of 2019. The two 32-meter newbuilds are replacing two of the three tugs currently operated by the owners.The RAstar 3200-SX tugs are purposely designed with a shallower draft than other comparable high-performance escort tugs and incorporate considerable input and collaboration with Sanmar.
oneTank BWTS Gains US Coast Guard Type Approval
oneTank, LLC has been granted a U.S. Coast Guard Certificate of Approval (162.060/35/0), completing the suite of international approvals required for its ballast water treatment system.The oneTank ballast system is a simple, low-cost treatment option intended for vessels that do not need a complex solution. The system was developed to simplify the installation and treatment of the tanker aftpeak tank, an ideal "one or a few tanks" application. With an arrangement footprint of just two square-feet, it is a great fit for workboats where space and power are severely limited.

Newly created community-based organizations were rewarded for their efforts to protect the Critically Endangered Golden Mantella (Mantella aurantiaca) during a festival attended by government representatives and members of the local population. The event was held in the town of Moramanga in the Moramanga District in Madagascar.
Each of Madagascar's 97 districts has its own emblematic species. The Golden Mantella frog is endemic to the Moramanga district and, not surprisingly, is also its emblematic species. These frogs need both healthy rainforests and clean freshwater ponds to thrive. These habitats are currently threatened by logging, mining and slash and burn agriculture. One such habitat in the district is the Mangabe forest.
With the support of SOS-Save Our Species, Madagasikara Voakajy, a national conservation organization, supports both the community organizations that manage the Mangabe forest and the Malagasy authorities in their efforts to monitor, and conserve, the key breeding ponds of the Golden Mantella.
A total of ten community-based organizations are currently mobilized to act as conservation ambassadors of the species and its habitat, while at the same time improving local livelihoods in the process. Three organizations named a total of twenty monitors who regularly visited twelve Golden Mantella breeding ponds and reported on their state and on any illegal activities witnessed.
"Faniry" and "Hafasahona" were commended for being the best performing community-based organizations with the highest proportion of their village populations taking part in the initiative and the highest number of monitoring visits to the forest ponds. As a reward for their commitment, the communities received a monetary prize that will be used to support the rehabilitation of their village schools following a cyclone in February 2012.
"A Malagasy proverb says 'If you do things right, even frogs can bring water to your rice field'. This is becoming a reality for the communities living in Mangabe", explains Roma Randrianavelona, leader of the Mantella conservation project at Madagasikara Voakajy since 2008. "They never expected to be rewarded for the conservation of this tiny frog", he concludes.

Singletrack, originally uploaded by KC-Bike.
See the rest of today's photos here.
I hung out with Jason over lunch at ChefBurger. He's always a blast. I ran into Karen on my way home, too.
I met my wife for supper about 5 miles from home. We put The Twelve on the back of the Explorer and came home. I spent some time getting The Goat back in singletrack form, then took it out for about an hour on the trails at Shawnee Mission Park for 5 slow miles of the funnest suffering I've had in a long time. I'll pay for this in the morning, I'm sure.
I love my Tunage and don't often get to listen and ride since I don't listen to music when commuting. My journey this evening was powered by this soundtrack of random tunage picked by iTunes' party shuffle (and the songs then transferred to my LG Chocolate for listening)
Consider it a mega version of Random Tunage:

By John McMullen
East Rutherford, NJ
(SportsNetwork.com) - We've all heard the idiom "sly as a fox" - a nod
to just how smart and clever those animals can be.
Celtic lore has even painted the fox as a guide and honored it for its wisdom and intimate knowledge of its habitat.
John Fox did not live up to the characteristics of his surname on
Sunday as his Denver Broncos were routed by the Seattle Seahawks, 43-8,
in Super Bowl XLVIII.
"They schemed the heck out of us," Broncos
right tackle Orlando Franklin admitted. "They did an extremely good job
today, getting after guys."
Seattle scored 12 seconds into each
half and racked up 21 points off four Denver turnovers on the way to the
laugher. Percy Harvin's 87-yard kickoff return touchdown to start the
second half came after Seattle also scored 12 seconds into the game on a
snap that sailed over Peyton Manning's head and into the Broncos' end
zone. The safety counted as the Super Bowl's fastest-ever points.
Manning was able to set new passing and touchdown records during an
historic regular season for the highest-scoring offense of all-time, but
his third big game played out like a Super Bowl XXIV sequel (when the
John Elway-led Broncos were manhandled by San Francisco, 55-10), a Tim
Burton-directed nightmare from start to finish due to the speed and
athleticism of the Seahawks' top-ranked defense.
"Giving them the
lead played into their hands," Manning said. "That's what they do to a
lot of teams. If you give them a lead, it certainly benefits their
Understand Fox could have been Vince Lombardi himself
and Denver still wouldn't have won this football game, but the
responsibility of any coach is to try to accentuate the strengths of his
own team while masking the deficiencies as well as possible.
Fox only exacerbated the poor play of his club, however, with a run-of-the-mill game plan and some serious in-game blunders.
Many will harp on Fox's bumbling challenge of a Harvin drop that
clearly wasn't a lateral or his tacit approval of special teams
coordinator Jeff Rodgers' plan to implement a mortar kick -- despite
having the strong-legged Matt Prater at his disposal -- at the start of
the second half, the one which Harvin returned to the house, sucking the
life out of Denver.
After that TD, even the Rev. Jesse Jackson
himself couldn't have kept hope alive for the Broncos, but when you are
staring at a 29-0 deficit on the game's biggest stage, why not adopt
Herm Edwards' mantra and play to win the game?
Not Fox, who
decided to punt while at Seattle's 39-yard line, a symbolic "no mas" to a
team that dominated his charges athletically, physically and mentally.
"There was a reason they were the No. 1 team in defense during the
season," Fox said when asked about his team's struggles. "Give them
credit. They had a lot to do with it.
Perhaps, but Fox's most
egregious error may have been enabling Manning's reliance on the screen
game which was extremely effective for the Broncos in the regular
season. Five minutes in, though, it was clear Seattle's back seven was
far too fast and physical for that kind of plan and Fox needed to get in
Manning's or Adam Gase's ear.
Left to his own devices and
spooked by a steady, if unspectacular pass rush, Manning was clearly
uncomfortable and began forcing things even when it wasn't necessary.
"I thought Peyton did a good job in the pocket," Fox said before
adding: "Their pressure did have something to do with (the offensive
issues). Their pass defense is outstanding."
Many will argue
Manning deserves more rope than the normal player, but the quarterback
himself pointed out all week that he needed to take his shots against
the Seahawks' "Legion of Boom," shots that never came until the contest
was far out of reach.
If the head coach has to ruffle a few feathers, so be it. That's part of the gig.
"They're pretty fast on film, too," Fox said when asked if he was
surprised by the Seahawks' speed. "They're a good defense. It didn't
surprise me."
Fair enough, but it did surprise Manning and his
players, and that speaks to a lack of preparation, something not usually
associated with Peyton or his teams.
"That game got away from us a little bit," Denver defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio confessed.
In the end, Fox deserves plenty of credit for even being in this game.
The Super Bowl marked the three-month anniversary of the day he
collapsed on the 14th green at a golf club in Charlotte.
In the
90 days since, the Broncos' mentor went from open heart surgery to the
Super Bowl, but the Seahawks had no intention of providing a happy
They were the foxes on Sunday.
"It was really a
good game for our guys on all sides," Seattle coach Pete Carroll
understated, "I'm proud of this entire team for what we were able to do
all season long and especially here today."

DEAR ABBY: Last year, I began to lose my hearing due to a genetic disorder and now I have to wear hearing aids. I will be a freshman in high school next year. My teachers all have to wear microphones so I can hear them.
I'm scared other kids will make fun of me for being different. I have already gotten laughed at. What should I do? -- EMBARRASSED TEEN
DEAR EMBARRASSED TEEN: When people laugh at a person who has a disability, it is usually out of ignorance. Because this happened at school or another place where there is adult supervision, you and your parents should talk to the principal or person in authority so that person can speak privately with the guilty parties and explain why your hearing aids and the microphone are necessary. Your parents should also have a meeting with the principal of your high school before you go so the problem can be avoided.
When I was in grammar school, a classmate of mine had severe hearing loss. Because the students understood what her problem was, she was never ridiculed.
P.S. Making fun of a child who has a disability is a form of bullying, and should be treated as such.
DEAR ABBY: I'm 25 and have been with my husband for nine years, married for four. I cheated on him twice. He caught me both times.
Even though I strayed, he decided to stay. But now he treats me like I'm a child and a prisoner. He took away my phone, my Internet and I can't go anywhere. He says this is my punishment for what I did. Do I really deserve that? I know we're both wrong, but is he more wrong? -- BROKEN WIFE
DEAR BROKEN WIFE: From where I sit, you are equally wrong. How long ago did the cheating incidents occur? If they are recent, you two should be in marriage counseling. If they were long ago, then you must decide if you want to live the rest of your life being treated as a child and a prisoner.
Your husband doesn't trust you because you haven't been trustworthy. But taking away your phone and Internet and keeping you under lock and key will not help you to rebuild it.
You two need more help than anyone can give you in a letter, and I hope you will seek it. If he won't go for counseling, you should go without him because I don't think the status quo can last.
DEAR ABBY: My sister and brother-in-law passed away two years ago. I am the only living relative of their 28-year-old son, "Louis." He is a loner, spoiled and a poor houseguest. I invite Louis over only because I don't want him to be alone at holiday times. My husband, teenage daughter and I have nothing in common with him, and frankly, he spoils our holidays.
How can I stop inviting my nephew without feeling guilty? Or is there another solution? I hate to make waves. -- HOLIDAY HATER IN CANADA
DEAR HOLIDAY HATER: If you invite your nephew for FEWER holidays you will be able to ease your conscience, enjoy more holidays and allow the young man a chance to become more proactive in planning entertainment for himself.
DEAR ABBY: I may be wrong, but isn't it presumptuous for someone to open the message card on a flower delivery before you get home when the flowers are for you? -- KIMBERLY IN MARYLAND
DEAR KIMBERLY: You're not wrong. The person opening the cards isn't being helpful, but nosy. And it wouldn't be out-of-line to tell the person not to do it again.
Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Many companies are facing the need for a major transformation of their software systems. This need can arise from desire for a new user interface or a requirement for supply chain integration. The application may simply be old, patched, and difficult to maintain, and thus in need of major restructuring.
Full transformation or even major rework of a subsystem can be a dauntingly huge task using conventional methods, but CI has tools and techniques that dramatically reduce the costs associated with transformation while simultaneously improving the quality of the resulting system.

Behold the point where rainforest meets ocean in the rugged Cape Hillsborough National Park, swim in crystal-clear rock pools at Finch Hatton Gorge and search for the elusive platypus in the rivers of the Eungella National Park. On the water, spot dugongs in the designated sanctuary at Clairview or snorkel right from the beach on Keswick Island, one of the southernmost of the Whitsunday Islands on the Great Barrier Reef.
A Net Free Fishing Zone runs from Cape Hillsborough to St Helens, meaning commercial fishing is banned, making it ideal for recreational anglers. Fish right on the edge of the Great Barrier Reef, hook up a monster on a deep-sea expedition or troll around one of the islands just offshore. Inland, head for estuaries or dams in search of freshwater fish.

Kisses are the mainstay of romance writing. No matter how sweet or spicy our stories are, they usually involve at least a kiss or two. And the first kiss is especially lovely - that first, soft touch of lips - or perhaps the kiss is fierce and hungry. Maybe the characters murmur words of love or words of teasing while discovering the texture and taste of each other. Maybe the only sounds they can emit are gentle, timorous moans or deep, throaty groans.
Oh, and lips only... ;-)
