Traveling is part of every entrepreneur's life - whether you are looking for suppliers, new clients, or a new location for your business. Unlike before, traveling now is more accessible, thanks to cheaper airfares and online bookings.
Here is the second part of a series of tips that Entrepreneur.com.ph compiled on how you can make the most out of your business trips:
6. Eat. Before the flight, make sure to eat at least a light meal. Delays in the country's airports are the rule rather than the exception. And with most airlines cutting costs, you can't expect a hot meal during the two-hour flights.
7. Prepare loose change. If you can prepare the exact amount for terminal fees, travel taxes, and taxi fares, better. Preparing loose change will save you and others the time and hassle in the long queues in the airport.
8. Provide enough leeway for delays. Do not schedule your flights within the hour of your estimated time of arrival. Delays, traffic jams, and other unexpected events might arise upon your arrival.
9. Do your research and write it down. Conduct a research on the people that you would want to be meeting during your trip. You can also research on the local customs of the area, it might come handy when closing a deal.
10. Be polite. A little courtesy can go a long way. It doesn't matter how stressful your trip or flight may have been don't lose your temper with the people in the airport. You will never know when you will encounter these people again in your future trips.

Since the time our neighbor's vicious dog attacked Pasha and badly mutilated him, Pasha has been showing fear mixed with fear-aggression towards other dogs. Marsha offered help by bringing various dogs with the permission of their owners to socialize with Pasha and to a large extent helped him overcome his problems. The article is about Marsha and features both Pasha and Sammie who came to visit with him. You can read the article in the PDF file I have created from the paper.

Last year, trucks and SUVs found themselves in even more homes with SUVs continuing to climb the list of top sellers than ever regrouping small cars and mid-sized sedans in the process.
Rushing to capitalize on the popularity of these vehicles and the higher prices they command, automakers continue to pepper the market with new products. In addition to a series of major redesign to the segment stalwarts, including the Chevrolet Equinox and Traverse, Audi Q5, BMW X3 and Ford Expedition, was in 2018 got a brand new name badge to the party, including Toyota C-HR, Alfa Romeo Stelvio, Range Rover Velar and Volkswagen Atlas.
Unlike free for all sorts of formats of 10Best cars, where all 10 seats are open to any excellent access, we rank the big market for trucks and SUVs in 10 categories: seven to SUVs, two pickups and one for vans. SUV segments are divided into subcompact, compact and midsize, each with a luxury and nonluxury sector, as well as a combined large category, as the prices of equipment such as the Chevy Suburban and Ford Expedition is fully luxury.
We invite all new or substantially revised models with a base price of less than $ 80,000 plus those considered last year, but was unavailable for the rating – to prove me against last year's winner, in a one-week face-off, That includes careful control, a lot of data collection, and plenty of time for our entire editorial staff to put them to the test.
In order to cater to the circle of winners, vehicles have to impress in three ways. The first one is offering a strong value proposition – not to be confused with a low price because we firmly believe that the vehicle excellence is worth paying for. It also has to inspire how well it fulfills its mission and the segment it competes with.
And finally it has to drive. Not because pickup car or minivanet that shows the least amount of body roll had to win – despite the kind of dynamic behavior it's likely to be unlike its job – but there's no reason for having big families, big hobbies or other reasons To start large vehicle must have an experience that is less than confidence-inspiring.
With thousands of kilometers driven the second and third row seats evaluated for space and comfort, cargo space and interior storage compartments measured and new features assessed, these vehicles are rated to 10 as the best among peers currently on offer in their respective categories.

The Plateau police command has invited for questioning leaders of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) who led a protest to the government house.
Markus Kanda, chairman of the youth group of CAN in the state, was among the invited officials.
Kanda told newsmen on Thursday that he visited the command headquarters alongside other officials involved in the protest.
He said they were accused of destroying some properties at the government house during the protest.
"I am currently at the police command headquarters," he said. "They said we destroyed some properties yesterday and that we should make statements."
He said "there are many of us here" and that "we have been here for some time".
Hundreds of protesters had stormed the government house on Wednesday, accusing Simon Lalong, the governor, of failing in his duties.
The protesters condemned the recent attack in the state in which over 80 persons were killed and alleged that the governor is "not doing enough" to address their security challenges.
"A lot of people have been chased out of their villages. Right now we have at least 50 villages that have been ransacked. We are not happy. This cannot continue," Kanda had told newsmen during the protest.
When contacted, Terna Tyopev, police spokesman in the state, said he is not aware of the invitation.
"I have not learnt about it," he said.

Gibraltar not covered by provisional Brexit transition deal, Spain warns
Gibraltar will not be covered by the provisional Brexit transition agreement that Theresa May hopes to conclude with EU leaders next week, the Spanish government has warned.
Mrs May hopes to reach an agreement-in-principle on the 21-month transition period at next week's European Council but Gibraltar will have to wait months to discover if it is to be covered by the deal.
Last year the European Union granted Spain a veto over Gibraltar which the Madrid government reiterated to the Sunday Telegraph last night.
"If the UK wants any agreement between the EU and UK - including the transitional agreement - to apply to Gibraltar after its withdrawal on March 29 2019, it will need the agreement with...

I know the last poem and this one are a bit weird and off-tracks for me. Do not be alarmed, I'm tinkering with new sound constructions for "ofuscus", the sister structure to "excelse", but since I'm just starting, it's mostly an exploration of how variant I can make them sound without sacrificing much of both. These are mostly free-hand practices that allow me to gage and compare.
Author's notes:
Line 12 is a reference to the book of the same name, "Heights of Despair", by Emil Cioran. Highly advise you to seek it if you enjoy some grim phylosophy.
Line 1 is a reference to a song, all my compositions have at least one of these, sometimes more. In this case, it is "Odd Look" by french musician Kavinsky.
Line 17 might look a bit weird, Child is the symbol, while intrumental pain is the syntax. This is done purposefully, but the Child himself won't appear just here, that's why I symbolized it by means of capitalization. Its sort of a character but also a projection.

Introduction to Computer Networks
A computer architect should know about computer networks because of the two main
1. Connectivity
Connection of components with in a single computer follows the same principles used for
the connection of different computers. It is important for the computer architect to know
about connectivity for better sharing of bandwidth
Sharing of resources
Consider a lab with 50 computers and 2 printers using a network, all these 50 computers
can share these 2 printers.
A set of rules followed by different components in a network. These rules may be defined
for hardware and software.
It is a computer with a modem, LAN card and other network interfaces. Hosts are also
called nodes or end points. Each node is a combination of hardware and software and all
nodes are interconnected by means of some physical media.
Difference between Distributed Computing and Computer Networks
Page 373
Last Modified: 01-Nov-06
Advanced Computer Architecture-CS501
In distributed computing, all elements which are interconnected operate under one
operating system. To a user, it appears as a virtual uni-processor system.
In a computer network, the user has to specify and log in on a specific machine. Each
machine on the network has a specific address. Different machines communicate by
using the network which exists among them.
Classification of Networks
We can classify a network based on the following two parameters:
· The number and type of machines to be interconnected
· The distance between these machines
Based on these two parameters, we have the following type of networks:
SAN (System/Storage Area Network)
It refers to a cluster of machines where large disk arrays are present. Typical distances
could be tens of meters.
LAN (Local Area Network)
It refers to the interconnection of machines in a building or a campus. Distances could be
in Kilometers.
WAN (Wide Area Network)
It refers to the interconnection between LANs.
Interconnectivity in WAN
Two methods are used to interconnect WANs:
1. Circuit switching
It is normally used in a telephone exchange. It is not an efficient way.
2. Packet switching
A block (an appropriate number of bits) of data is called a packet. Transfer of data in
the form packets through different paths in a network is called packet switching.
Additional bits are usually associated with each packet. These bits contain
information about the packet. These additional bits are of two types: header and
trailer. As an example, a packet may have the form shown below:
If we use a 1- bit header, we may have the following protocol:
Header = 0, it means it is a request
Header = 0, Reply
By reading these header bits, a machine becomes able to receive data or supply data.
To transfer data by using packets through hardware is very difficult. So all the transfer is
done by using software. By using more number of bits, in a header, we can send more
messages. For example if n bits are used as header then 2n is the number of messages that
can be transmitted over a network by using a single header.
For a 2 bit header: we may have 4 types of messages:
Page 374
Last Modified: 01-Nov-06
Advanced Computer Architecture-CS501
00= Request
01= Reply
10= Acknowledge request
11= Acknowledge reply
Error detection
The trailer can be used for error detection. In the above example, a 4 bit checksum can be
used to detect any error in the packet. The errors in the message could be due to the long
distance transmission. If the error is found in some message, then this message will be
repeated. For a reliable data transmission, bit error rate should be minimum.
Software steps for sending a message:
Copy data to the operating system buffer.
Calculate the checksum, include in trailer and star timer.
Send data to the hardware for transmission.
Software steps for message reception:
Copy data to the operating system buffer.
Calculate the checksum; if same, send acknowledge and copy data to the user area
otherwise discard the message.
Response of the sender to acknowledgment:
If acknowledgment arrives, release copy of message from the system buffer.
When timer expires, resend data and restart the time.
Performance Issues
1. Bandwidth
It is the maximum rate at which data could be transmitted through networks. It is
measured in bits/sec.
2. Latency
In a LAN, latency (or delay) is very low, but in a WAN, it is significant and this is
due to the switches, routers and other components in the network
3. Time of flight
It is the time for first bit of the message to arrive at the receiver including delays.
Time of the flight increases as the distance between the two machines increases.
4. Transmission time
The time for the message to pass through the network, not including the time of
5. Transport latency
Transport latency= time of flight + transmission time
6. Sender overhead
Page 375
Last Modified: 01-Nov-06
Advanced Computer Architecture-CS501
It is the time for the processor to inject message in to the network.
7. Receiver overhead
It is the time for the processor to pull the message from the network.
8. Total latency
Total latency = Sender overhead + Time of flight + Message size/Bandwidth + Receiver
9. Effective bandwidth
Effective bandwidth = Message size/Actual Bandwidth
Actual bandwidth may be larger than the effective bandwidth.
Assume a network with a bandwidth of 1500Mbits/sec. It has a sending overhead of
100µsec and a receiving overhead of 120µsec. Assume two machines connected together.
It is required to send a 15,000 byte message from one machine to the other (including
header), and the message format allows 15, 00 bytes in a single message. Calculate the
total latency to send the message from one machine to another assuming they are 20m
apart (as in a SAN). Next, perform the same calculation but assume the machines are
700m apart (as in a LAN). Finally, assume they are 1000Km apart (as in a WAN).
Assume that signals propagate at 66% of the speed of light in a conductor, and that the
speed of light is 300,000Km/sec.
By using the assumption, we get:
Distance between two machines in Km
Time of flight = --------------------------------------------------
2/3 x 300,000Km/sec
Total Latency = Sender overhead + Time of flight + Message size/bandwidth
+ Receiver overhead
For SAN:
Total latency = 100µsec
+ (0.020Km/(2/3 x 300,000Km/sec))
+ 15,000bytes/ 1500Mbits/sec
+ 120µsec
= 100µsec + 0.1µsec + 80µsec + 120µsec
= 300.1µsec
For LAN
Total latency = 100µsec
+ (0.7Km/(2/3 x 300,000Km/sec))
+ 15,000bytes/ 1500Mbits/sec + 120µsec
= 100µsec + 3.5µsec + 80µsec + 120µsec
Page 376
Last Modified: 01-Nov-06
Advanced Computer Architecture-CS501
= 303.1µsec
For WAN
Total latency = 100µsec
+ (1000Km/(2/3 x 300,000Km/sec))
+ 15,000bytes/ 1500Mbits/sec
+ 120µsec
= 100µsec + 5000µsec + 80µsec + 120µsec
= 5300µsec
Effective bandwidth versus Message size
Effective bandwidth is always less than the raw bandwidth. If the effective bandwidth is
closer to the raw bandwidth, the size of the message will be larger. If the message size is
larger then network will be more effective.
If large number of the messages are present then a queue will be formed, and the user has
to face delay. To minimize the delay, it is better to use packets of small size.
Physical Media
Twisted pair does not provide good quality of transmission and has less bandwidth. To
get high performance and larger bandwidth, we use co-axial cable. For increased
performance, better performance, we use fiber optic cables, which are usually made of
glass. Data transmits through the fiber in the form of light pulses. Photo diodes and
sensors are used to produce and receive electronic pulses.

Wine has been around for centuries. If you think that wine is not right for you, it could just be that you have yet to find the right bottle. You will feel confident making decisions about wine after reading this article.
Seafood is nicely complemented by a good Pinot Grigio. This wine, in particular, makes the food taste even better. There are other white wines you could have with seafood. This is a great way to make for an amazing meal.
Develop a relationship with your local wine store. As you can imagine, each location differs significantly. The various shops have their own preferences, structures, and themes. If you don't know much about wine, going to a store packed with pricey labels might not be good. Look for a shop that best suits your needs.
Don't panic when wine stains a shirt; grab the Windex. It works way better than water and soap on a wine stain. It is crucial to target the stain immediately since waiting will allow the stain to begin setting in.
An amazing sauce for any beef dish can be made using wine. Just use your favorite red wine and add a little bit of butter to the saucepan. Allow sauce to simmer a bit to thicken up and cook out some of the alcohol. After that, drizzle it lightly over the beef entree.
Don't be scared of labels containing sulfite warnings. American distributors are required to place these warnings on their labels. While it is true that some may experience an allergic reaction to sulfites, remember that you are not likely to have one if you have been exposed to them before.
If you're taking wine to a tailgating party, selecting one with a screw top is a good idea. Screw tops don't need a wine opener and are easy to open. If any wine remains after the party, a lid seals more effectively than a cork.
Experiment when buying wine. Sampling new wines is a wonderful way to explore new regions and varieties. Ask your local wine vendor for a recommendation from a country you've always wanted to visit. You may discover a new wine you never tried before is your new favorite.
When it comes to wine, it is important that you have fun and try all the different flavors that come with it. You often will be able to look at all aspects of wine and its versatility. The point of drinking wine is to enjoy it, so have fun!
Color does not reflect the lightness of a wine. Both white and red wines have the same amount of alcohol. Still, white wines usually are easier to drink. Pinot Grigio and Sauvignon Blanc are lightest; these may be best as table wines.
Use good quality and fresh stemware when you serve your wines. Use clean glasses to make sure the guests can truly appreciate the color and taste of the wine you are serving. If your wineglasses are old or chipped buy new.
You should only consume wines that you prefer. Some restaurants and bars might promote certain brands of wine. The flip side is that these brands typically cost way too much, sometimes even twenty times as much as the wholesale price! A higher price does not guarantee the wine will be of high quality. Know what kinds of wine you enjoy and stick with those.
Try spicing things up and experiencing a few new flavors at your favorite venue. Avoid the temptation to stick with what you like, as you will soon get bored of it. Try going for a wine that comes from a different place, or even one that's totally different altogether such as a Chianti. You might just find that your new favorite wine is much cheaper that the one you currently are buying.
Wine is great for cooking with as well as drinking alone. Putting a bit of red wine in with your steak is a great idea. The flavor of white wine is used to complement seafood dishes. Adding some wine to the food you are cooking, for instance by making a sauce to bring out the flavors of the meat you are preparing.
In case you don't know it, wine has existed for many years. Choosing the ideal wine can be tough, but you can do it with persistence and patience. Simply keep these thoughts in mind next time you're on the search for a bottle of wine.

I had a sip of mulled wine years and years ago, and it obviously left an impression because I spent hours on the internet today trying to find a recipe that would come close to what I tasted. I ended up just mixing my own combination of spices and it turned out yum!!! I hope people enjoy it tomorrow at the New Year's party. There's something very comforting about drinking a warm spiced wine on a cold day…
Ingredients1 cup water 1/4 cup white sugar (depending on how sweet you like things) 1 tbsp brown sugar
5 cardamom pods, split open 5 cloves 2 sticks of cinnamon (~2-3 inches long) 1/4 tsp grated nutmeg 1/2 tsp allspice 1 vanilla bean, cut in half lengthwise 1 orange, cut into thin slices with the skin on 750 mL red wine (I used a Carlos Rossi Burgundy)
1. Mix water, both sugars, cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and allspice in a small saucepan. Bring it to a boil and let it simmer for about 10 minutes.
2. In a heavy bottom saucepan or crock pot, add the water-spice mix, wine, orange slices, and vanilla bean. Heat this mix on low for about an hour (should not boil, just heat).
3. Strain (optional) and serve warm!!!

… the kingdom of heaven has come near. Mark 10:7
Today you are invited to consider how near the kingdom of heaven is to you. How aware are you of the peace of God in your life? How do your circumstances influence your sense of well-being? What is happening that disturbs the peace Jesus promises you? (John 14:27) What is your core feeling at this time? If you are aware of the nearness of heaven in your life, spend time today praising God for His presence; if you are not, then ask Him to reveal heaven to you that you may be content in all circumstances and serve Him as He desires.
May God bless you with an awareness of heaven in your life today.

Weddings are so wonderful to me. There's something about being a witness to the beginning of a brand new family that touches my heart, and even though they can be crazy and stressful, I love being able to be a part of them. At every wedding I shoot, I seem to walk away encouraged by something, like the way the bride and groom whisper to one another during the first dance or the way the couple's parents hold each other close. It could be anything. At Emily and Shane's wedding, it was hearing Shane read his vows to Emily. He promised not only to love and cherish her, but also to lead their family in their pursuit of the Lord. It was a beautiful moment, and I was excited to know that this new family would not only be guided by their love for each other but also by the Lord.
Their wedding took place at the beautiful and historic Rucker Place in Birmingham, Alabama. It was a really fun place to shoot, because there were so many different rooms and views to explore. There are a lot of windows, which provides an abundance of natural light inside (which I love!). Also, the balcony is a great place to shoot from during the ceremony. I stationed Emma up there while I shot from the ground. You'll see more examples of that later. OK, no more talking. On to the images!
I interrupt your regularly scheduled programming for this important messge. Ha! Just kidding. I just wanted to point out that I recently changed my wedding packages so that a second photographer is included at every wedding. Here is a set of images that demonstrate why. These next two images are the ones that I captured from the ground.
These are the two that Emma grabbed from the balcony. Now, when I'm putting together an album for the couple, I have two different and complimentary perspectives to choose from.
I LOVE this picture. It honestly made me laugh out loud when I saw it.
This family was serious about their dancing, especially the groom! These are some of my favorite reception photos, because they really capture the fun that these guys were having as they moved around the dance floor.
Shane and Emily, it was a blessing to celebrate your lives and love with you. It really was a pleasure, and I wish you the best in your new family!
Venue: Rucker Place. Coordinator: Jeannene Griesbach. Band: Rock Candy.

"I see no reason why CMOs shouldn't also take customer experience under their wing"
Should chief marketing officers really aspire to be CXOs? That stands for chief experience officer, although it is perhaps more often called chief customer officer. There are currently very few CXOs at brands – although they do appear at agencies – but the chief customer officer job title is slowly creeping into organisations.
Putting the semantics aside, the idea of a CXO is all about the theme of customer experience. There are many reasons for brands to focus on the customer and their experience. Over the last few decades, we have seen competitive advantage moving from the manufacturing and distribution sectors (think Ford or Tesco) to controlling or using information (Google or MBNA). Yet the future may see customer experience become the differentiating source of success and dominance.
In the world of digital marketing, it is clear that the criteria for success has moved over the years from essentially being first to market to needing to provide an outstanding customer experience to deliver a return on investment.
In the early days of search engine optimisation (SEO), for example, it used to be enough to buy links or stuff keywords onto the page to rank top; now it is about earning links and social media approval through useful content and outstanding customer experiences. Likewise, the brave new world of conversion rate optimisation is all about fine-tuning the customer experience to optimise performance.
Success criteria
Econsultancy recently polled senior digital marketers to discover what they felt were the most critical criteria to be successful in digital marketing. The answer was a relentless focus on optimising the customer experience came out top.
So should the CMO be responsible for this all-important customer experience? Certainly in some areas, not least marketing itself. The experience customers have of a brand's marketing is incredibly important, particularly as we move into an era of 'owned' and 'earned' media where marketing assets are multichannel content, applications, utility and experiences rather than ads, press releases or direct mail.
But what about the total customer experience? If you are marketing a museum, then should the CMO be responsible for the state of the toilets, the parking facilities or the music being played in the café? In the digital world, should the CMO be responsible for on-site conversion rates, site speed and device compatibility, which are clearly part of the customer experience?
Entering a new era
What about comments on Twitter about the brand that appear in search results, impacting the customer's total experience of the brand – should this be handled by the marketing department or customer service?
CMOs are entering a new era that is challenging but exciting. Most CMOs will soon have a bigger IT budget than their chief technology officer colleagues because of all the digital-related growth that typically sits under marketing, according to Gartner. I see no reason why CMOs shouldn't also take customer experience under their wing. They should own the total customer experience, online and offline.
But what do we really mean by 'customer experience'? In terms of the total customer experience, you need to look at all the possible customer touchpoints, digital and physical, and make sure they work together so that the customer journey is as pleasurable, as easy and as useful as possible.
However, the opportunity to surprise and delight customers through experience can be done with surprisingly small details and nice touches. There are some examples of this in the physical world, particularly among luxury brands. But it is harder to find digital moments of customer experience delight. Is this because the medium is less mature? Or it because the CMO hasn't been involved enough with online?
Creating great experiences
What great customer experiences come to mind to you, either online or offline? I always find Google's Doodles very effective in reinforcing the relevance of the brand in small but important ways. Amazon's delivery experience also out-ranks the majority of brands. Others are now catching up – one-hour delivery slots from Oasis and others – but Amazon is still a relentless machine of customer experience optimisation.
You should also look at Old Spice's latest Muscle Music ad, which is a brilliant interactive and amusing example of what advertising can become as an online experience (Mwlinks.co.uk/spice).
But is it possible to create great customer experiences in sectors as apparently uninspiring as, say, financial services? I believe so. Many years ago, I talked to a CXO at the then freshly launched online bank Egg. His idea was to send customers a case of champagne on the day they finally paid off their mortgage. This was a small cost to Egg given the value of the mortgage customer to them, but surely a big talking point and moment of experiential delight for the customer.
That CXO has long left Egg but it was a nice idea and one that surely the CMO should now steward? I am not convinced that the job title CXO needs to exist, but only because it should be the CMO stepping up to take control of the total customer experience across online and offline.

Dating start-up The Dating Ring is raising money to match New York women with men from San Francisco, after discovering there was a surplus of single women on the east coast and men on the west.
The site aiming to raise $10,000 through Crowdtilt to fly the women out to San Francisco in late May to rectify the gender imbalance. The company will arrange a number of dates between the men and women and throw a cocktail party while "redefining the notion of love itself".
According to the US census, there are 40,000 more men of "datable ages" in San Francisco than there are women, according to a video made by the site.
One woman filmed claimed all men in the dating game in New York were "gay or awful".
The site's founders wrote on the Crowdtilt funding page: "There are tons more single women in NYC, and tons more single men in SF. And, see, the two cities are only separated by a bunch of crappy airports, flight delays, and cheap roundtrip flights.
"I know it sounds crazy, but so do the plots of most modern day romcoms and guess what happens at the end of those? Rachel McAdams and Ryan Gosling fall madly in love. Each. And. Every. Time. Because crazy things make people fall in love. There's even real research about this, we swear."
The Dating Ring claims to be an old-fashioned style matchmaking service, sending up to six men and women out on group dates instead of encouraging matching through browsing each others' online profiles.
At the time of writing the site had raised $3,110.

Amber has hit the reset button on her IG.
Amber Rose is popping a brand new web page on Instagram. The feminist activist and writer has cleared her IG profile of posts and followers as of Saturday. It's unclear what impressed the choice.
The Instagram wipe comes just a few days after Amber spoke out towards homophobic responses to her son Bash's Taylor Swift fandom. After Rose posted a video wherein she introduced the 5-year-old with Taylor Swift tickets personally despatched to the household by Swift herself, sure commenters started to state that Bash was homosexual based mostly on his style in music. She known as out the dialog as "bullying" and urged it was this kind of pondering that leads youth to contemplate suicide. "[This is] why our society is so fucked up," she wrote. "Let's do higher for the following era individuals. Develop the fuck up and train ur youngsters to like and never hate."

Once again we welcome in spring with our biggest open studio event of the year. Join us for our 15th annual Fountain Street Open Studios from April 8-10. Hours will be Friday from 5:30 to 9 pm and Saturday & Sunday from 11-5. Over 50 studio artists and guests will be open. Plus there is a new gallery located on the first floor, FOUNTAIN STREET FINE ARTS.
I have been lucky to have a painting, Pippi and Hans, installed at the Floating Hospital for Children this past winter. This was a new venture for me and the most rewarding in my art career. The painting of a goose and gosling came to mind out of my love for childrens' literature and I collaged images from some of my favorite books into the mother goose's wing and also added lines of text into the snow beneath their feet. I hope that it will invite young patients and staff to ponder the clues to see if they can identify the books hidden in the painting. Giclees of Pippi and Hans will be available during open studios with 50% of the proceeds going to Floating Hospital for Children right here in Boston.
This spring, I was asked by Gianna Bird of Silver Moon Desings to collaborate on a jewelry line using my art images. Images of the jewelry can be seen on line at http://silvermoondesigns.biz We will be offering a selection of jewelry at the sale.
Remember that everything in the studio is offered at Special Studio Prices, so come and toast the end of the snow while supporting One World Women's Health in their mission to build a maternity clinic in Sierra Leone. I am donating 20% of my art sales to OWWH during this open studio event.For more informationhttp://www.oneworldwomenshealth.org/

iPhone Killers: HTC Touch vs Sony Ericsson W960
Since the iPhone was first announced, other companies have been working to get products out there that can compete with the new phone. There are plenty of them out there with all kinds of different features, but there are only two phones that are being realistically looked at as possible "iPhone Killers". No, it's not too likely that that the iPhone will get knocked off the market by either the HTC Touch or the Sony Ericsson W960 but these two products can certainly give the iPhone a run for its money. Let's take a closer look at what each of these babies has to offer.
Sony Ericsson W960
Sony Ericsson 960
The basic information that you need to know about the Sony Ericsson 960:
- 1. 8 GB of on board memory
- 2. 2.6" 262k color, QVGA resolution touch screen display
- 3. Holds approximately 700 albums of music, identified using Sony's Track IDfeature
- 4. Wireless capabilities using Bluetooth and A2DP stereo headset
- 6. MMS capability
- 7. Available on multiple networks and without a specific contract
- 8. Uses a standard keyboard
How does this compare to the iPhone? Features 1-4 are all features that are similar to those offered by the iPhone. Features 5-8 are all specific to the Sony Ericsson 960 and are not options for the iPhone at the current time. So, if you're looking for a phone that's got 3G and MMS capability, don't want to be limited to the AT&T network and prefer the use of a standard keyboard, you might think that the Sony Ericsson 960 makes for a great iPhone Killer.
BUT ... you should also know that the Sony Ericsson 960 is currently only available in Europe so if you're living in the United States, all of this information is a little bit irrelevant to you.
HTC Touch
HTC Touch
The basic information that you need to know about the HTC Touch:
- 64 megs of RAM and 128 megs of flash ROM
- Touch screen display with QVGA resolution
- WiFi and Bluetooth Capabilities
- Triband network with some roaming options
This phone has the basic capabilities of the iPhone but lacks some of the better features like the iTunes music options (while it can hold music, it doesn't have the identifying track features of the other phones). Therefore, it doesn't seem to really hold water as an "iPhone Killer".
Additionally, this phone is also better suited to Europe than America, since it works off of the triband networks with differ from the standard networks here in the United States.
In Summary
At this point in time, as far as people in the United States go, the iPhone is probably the best option out there for this kind of product. But that doesn't mean that there aren't iPhone killers on the rise. As Sony Ericsson 960 and HTC Touch are tested out in the markets in Europe, it may be found that one or both can do well over here also. And as other companies look to create a phone that compete with the iPhone, we may find that the iPhone's popularity goes down. After all, it's a phone that's not without its problems. The difficulty of battery replacement, the fact that it can only be used on one network and its lack of a keyboard are all issues that make room for iPhone Killers to improve upon the iPhone.
I will say that HTC is a Good Competitor for Apple iPhone. Because HTC have excellent and creative design.
Quite a few errors in the post. The author needs to check the picture and the specs for both phones. Particularly as this supposed to be a comparison with the iPhone.
Wrong picture for W960. That's the W950.

CUMBERLAND — It's a cause geared toward fighting hunger, while at the same time being a little kinder to the environment.
The Yarmouth Hannaford supermarket, which uses the company's "Hannaford Helps" reusable bag program to support a different local cause each month, has chosen Cumberland's Community Food Pantry as a beneficiary for August.
For every $2.50 bag a customer purchases this month, Hannaford will donate $1 to the food pantry. The bags can be purchased by each cash register.
Tom Gruber, the pantry's president and a town councilor, was so enthusiastic about the initiative that he went out and bought an armload of bags. He encourages others to do the same.
"We're all about the community," Assistant Store Manager Francys Perkins said in an interview Aug. 8. Cumberland, Freeport and Yarmouth are three towns with organizations the store benefits.
"We have different days that we donate to each one of them," Perkins explained. "We just want to make sure that we reach not only Yarmouth, because we're in Yarmouth, but we have customers from Cumberland and Freeport, and we want to make sure that we support (those communities)."
Along with food pantries, animal shelters, schools and historical societies are among entities Hannaford has benefited, Grande said. The company also offers Fight Hunger boxes to support those in need during the holidays.
Since the "Fight Hunger" bag's 2014 rollout, nearly 1,000 hunger relief organizations in New England and New York have been supported, with nearly $290,000 raised and more than 1 million bags purchased to date, according to newhannaford.bags4mycause.com. In turn, millions of plastic and paper bags have not been used.
The Yarmouth Hannaford expects to sell nearly 400 bags this month. When a customer has forgotten a reusable bag at home, or doesn't have enough bags, the Hannaford Helps bag is offered as a cause-supporting solution, Perkins said.
"It benefits (our customers) in two ways," Grande added. "A lot of them are pretty environmentally conscious, so they really lean toward using these reusable bags."
Gruber is particularly pleased with the win-win situation.
"Hannaford has been terrific for us," he said, praising the meats he has received for the approximately 100 families the pantry serves each month.
"If we have … a need, they'll help us, regardless of what it is," Gruber added.
The food pantry – more information about which is posted at cumberlandmaine.com/community-food-pantry – serves Cumberland, North Yarmouth, New Gloucester and Pownal residents. It is open from 3-6 p.m. the first, second and fourth Fridays of each month, on the ground floor at the rear of Cumberland Town Hall, 290 Tuttle Road.

"I've been watching my son get trained. They've been patient and positive, yet strict enough that he has engaged. So I've tried now too and we are both "In." Serious and dedicated are my initial views of everything I've seen.
" – Josh K.
"My daughter has been training at WMA for the last 6 years and we love it! She is strong, confident, and a team player! We love her increased focus and leadership!" – Seraphia P.
"Our family is involved in all the classes, and couldn't love it more! Everyone is so amazing, and they show you HOW to do everything, not just throw you in a class and expect you to know what to do. The instructors are very hands on with every student, regardless of age, rank or ability. I feel like they truly want every student to be successful. I can tell each instructor is passionate about WMA, and not just running a business or collecting a check. They make us feel like we're family!" – Michelle J.
"Absolutely amazing. This place is where you need to bring your children to learn many life skills, not just martial arts. I recommend it to everyone" – Chudeto B.
"When I first brought my son to Warrior Martial Arts (WMA), he was 5 years old and having some behavioral issues at home as well as at school. After enrolling him at WMA, I noticed a drastic change in his behavior. He had a greater respect for his elders and other authority figures at school and at home.. I'm very thankful for the WMA family and the support we get from both members and staff. He is 6 now and I look forward to seeing him progress throughout the summer and next year!" – Kevin C.
"We came to Warrior Martial Arts Academy looking for a safe environment to introduce our 7 year old son to JuiJitsu. After a short period of time, we could tell that this was not going to just another sport for our son but a life long journey. The coaches and staff have a vested interest in seeing all of these kids succeed, not just on the mat, but in life. In addition to their training, the instructors want to know that kids are doing well at in everything they do off the mat. The instructors are all about teaching their students to push themselves to the point that they honestly earn a feeling of accomplishment. Being totally candid, this is not a place for ego, coddling, or participation awards. Any accolades (or belts) are hard earned. If you have ever wanted to see what its all about, I would recommend you come visit one of the gym locations to observe or even try a class out!" – Ryan K.
"We are happy to say that we have been part of the warrior family for over a year now. Warrior is extremely family oriented and encourage parents to get involved. My whole family trains there and we absolutely love it! The coaches are the best and genuinely take an active interest in their students. My two boys live to go to class!!" – Amber B.
"What an awesome facility! The instructors at ALL locations are high level and truly care about the kids. And it's not just for kids…the adult program is just as awesome. My daughter and I have been training here since last February and we love it so much!!" – Honey B.
"This place is great for the whole family. We started my son then a couple of cousins joined in and I've been to one class myself. Staff and atmosphere are great!" – David C.
"My son has been attending Warrior for almost 1 year. His skills and confidence have increased tremendously! The coaches are GREAT with the kids. I highly recommend Warrior Martial Arts!" – Jill E.

Amanda Jones Direct Online Online Income
by, 07-09-2014 at 08:18 AM (18356 Views)
I noticed the Amanda Jones Direct Online Income program popup recently on one of the tools I use to monitor various fake news sites. Obviously, since it was being promoted by a fake news site, that was a huge red flag.
Amanda Jones is of course a fake name made up to promote the highly questionable Direct Online Income program. If you want to understand why I think you should avoid the program, you may want to take a look at this page:
I think once you read through that page, you'll be extremely skeptical about this so-called work at home program from Amanda Jones.0 Thanks, 0 Likes, 0 LMAO, 0 Dislikes, 0 Ignorant, 0 Moron

The fun thing about blow outs is that you have more time to experiment with cool cutaways and different shots when the game has already been decided. Here I was able to get some great finds like the football on the opening shot (that wasn't planted, it was actually just sitting there) and shooting into the sun to get that cool wash out.
I also liked the interviews and I think the shots helped compliment those interviews nicely.

Max Power discusses the emotions of Latics' title-winning victory and his own personal battle this season.
- Reaction: Max Power reflects on Latics' Sky Bet League One title win.
- Midfielder couldn't hold back his emotions during celebrations following Will Grigg's goal.
- Power says 2017/18 has been a 'big lesson' and made him hungry again.
It's been a rollercoaster ride for Max Power in 2017/18, but he insists his journey in Sky Bet League One has been one of his best lessons in football, with his hunger for the game returning and culminating in sensational scenes when Latics captured the title at Doncaster Rovers on Saturday.
The midfielder began:
"I'll be having a good break during the summer. I can finally put what happened at the beginning of the season to bed.
"I think a lot of other people would have gone the other way, but I feel like I've come back from the dead. Against MK Dons on the first day of the season I was on the couch at my mum's wondering where I was at with my career. It was a real crossroads.
"I'm very grateful to Paul Cook and the chairman because they were always honest with me from the start. What happened was a real lesson for me, but I'm actually glad it happened in a way because it made me hungry again.
"I've always dedicated my life to football, but I'd like to think I've taken that to another level. I've been in early every day at 6.30am to work hard in the gym. I've worked hard on every aspect of my game, I'd like to get more goals than I do, but I've been judging myself on clean sheets recently because my role has changed. I've enjoyed every position I've played in this season."
On the scenes at the end of Latics' 1-0 victory at the Keepmoat on Saturday afternoon, Power continued:
"The scenes at the end of the Doncaster game are what you work hard for in football. The whole season led to Saturday, we believe we've been the best team in the league and on Saturday we went out and proved it.
"It's been a fantastic season. It's had a bit of everything with the FA Cup run and then to be crowned champions again.
🤣🤣🤣 cartwheeling into the @SkyBetChamp!#wafc 🔵⚪ pic.twitter.com/NQ8xLBg9E5— Wigan Athletic (@LaticsOfficial) May 5, 2018
"Football is a game that runs on emotion and the supporters showed that at Doncaster.
"Bouncing back from the disappointment of last season is not as easy as people think and that's credit to the manager, his staff, the players and of course the fans. They stuck by us after a really difficult season.
"We've learned lessons from last season, but we know just how tough it's going to be next season back in the Championship."
Reflecting on the season with his team mates, Power was full of praise and ran out of superlatives for the squad.
"Christian Walton has had a fantastic season and deservedly won the Golden Glove award, he's been rock solid.
"Nathan Byrne has been fantastic and I've really enjoyed playing with him on that side of the pitch. Callum Elder and Reece James have battled it out all season.
"Lee Evans made a huge contribution in the first half of the season, but I'd like to thank Sheffield United for buying him because it got me back in the team.
"I could go through the whole team. We've got Nick Powellw who is way above this level and he's shown that this season. Will Grigg... I could go on forever.
"Special mention to my little mate Perks as well. He's not played as much this season but he drives lads on in training and he's arguably still the fittest at the club. He came on during the game on Saturday and got a great ovation, it's those characters who you enjoy being around."

Soley's speech arguments hypocritical
I hope that the video Truth or Consequences: Safer Sex at MIT will not only teach the community about safer sex, but will also teach the community, and especially Jill B. Soley '92, about free speech on campus.
Last year, Soley wrote a letter to The Tech supporting censorship of speech that she felt
was hurtful. Now she has co-produced this video, that could be held by some jurisdictions to be illegal to make or to show. If anyone on this campus feels that the video "creates an intimidating or . . . offensive . . . environment," then under the current absurd MIT Harassment Policy, which she apparently supports, she has acted improperly and is subject to punishment.
Soley is now on the other side of the fence. Although she feels that her film is different, and therefore acceptable speech, she has followed the classic reasoning of all censors: "Stopping my speech is censorship, while stopping others' is proper." This current hot issue is often subjective or vague, as are terms such as "pornography," "blasphemy," "communist sympathy," or "offensiveness." These types of items allow whichever group is in power to censor whatever it feels is appropriate.
Many people have judged this video without seeing it. Of course, that is again typical of censors.
Soley has decided that her film is acceptable, while other films that she does not like, and may never have seen, are not. She would be surprised to learn that some people would call her film pornographic, but in this case
she is in the majority, so she is happy. The dangers of censorship come from drawing these types of lines.
According to The Tech, Associate Dean for Residence and Campus Activities James R. Tewhey is not sure the film is acceptable to be shown ["Explicit safe sex video will be shown at Bexley," Sept. 6]. He is worried about parental reactions, and will use that to help decide whether to show the video. No one should have the power to decide what we may see and hear on campus. The idea of parents' opinions influencing those decisions, and Tewhey interpreting and enforcing them, is extremely offensive.
Some speech is hurtful and offensive, but all speech must
be protected, not only neutral, bland or "politically correct" speech. If our parents, or the administration, or senators such as Jesse Helms, are given the power to decide what is "bad," they will not reach the same conclusions as Soley or myself. In a free society, and especially on a college campus, the only answer is to stop all censorship, and to allow all ideas to be expressed. We are all mature enough to decide for ourselves which ideas we wish to view, to hold, to express or to challenge.
Safe sex is an important issue. I hope that anyone who wishes to will be allowed to see this film, and any other film that they desire, on this campus. I would
be glad to help Soley preserve and express her First Amendment rights in any way possible.

Originally posted on the MA Character animation course blog, published July 9th 2015.
So the first individual project is over and I'm quite happy with with the result, even though I hope my final film is going to be even better.
I thought I would write this post to remember what I've learned while working on this project as I've done a lot of notes and got a lot of feedback and tips for later.
First of all, finding a way to tell a story that is both easy to understand and entertaining is not a simple task and in this project it took too much of my time. I really struggled and lost so much time because of it. For my final film I need to come up with a story quicker and try it out on more people to get feedback as this was what I needed to find my story, or more than anything, my ending. I'm not entirely sure what I could have done different though as I had all the elements of the story ready quite early, it was just the matter of fitting it all together.
2. I use a long time on layout and finding the right colour palette. Until this project I had never made a film completely on my own and never really drawn backgrounds or worked much with colour. I found this so complicated and used well over three weeks on thirteen backgrounds! But in the end, I feel a bit better about it now, and I will try to teach myself more over the summer. Some of the second years recommended me that for my next project I should work out a colour palette earlier, and also try to draw a picture which included both the background and the characters in the style I'm planing so I know what I'm aiming for.
3. I want to make my animatics even better. Mostly because when I started working on the backgrounds I realised how much easier it would have been if my animatic was more detailed. I think I should ad more pictures to my animatics as well, not only to make it more understandable, but also to easier figure out the timing. I really like drawing storyboards anyway.
4. I've gotten a lot of good feedback through the year that when I'm animating, I work really quick. And I realised that I do, I did all the rough animation in one week and even though the animation in this film is not my best I see that the animation part is my biggest strength. So for my next film I'll keep working fast and precise with my animation, probably give myself at least twice as much time, but focus more on the parts that I don't enjoy as much like clean up and colouring.
5. Draw layout first then animate! Don't animate first and then try to draw a background that fits the animation, it's not a good idea…
6. Clean up is fairly easy to do, but it takes a lot of time to make it look good. I found it very easy to do in TvPaint, but I takes more time than what I had for this projects. Also remember, don't use less than a two pixel brush in TvPaint, the program will mess it up when exporting!
7. Oh my god, colouring is a pain in the a**! It takes a LONG time! If there is anything I'm taking with me from this project, it is that for my final film, I'll try to have three or four weeks just to colour the animation, cause it takes a long time to make it look good.
8. I need to get better at time management. Even though I made a schedule there were some parts of the project that took longer or shorter time than I expected. I've done some notes on this for my final film so I can hopefully plan better next time.
9. If I need someone to help me out I will ask earlier! Since I started animating so late the actor students where unable to help me out with dialogue and reference, due to their own projects. I also could have kept more in contact with my composer to see how he was getting along. I managed to sort it all out in the end, but I'll remember this for later.
10. The importance of music. Even though I didn't get an original score I learned how much influence music has on a movie. I'll try to include music in my future animatic both to give myself and a composer something to work from.
11. Expectations vs reality. Probably the most important thing that I learned and the tip I got the most, don't aim too high. I might not be able to make the fantastic looking movie I have in my mind, and at sometime I have to settle on that the best I can do is good enough.
So, lots of experiences from this project, but it was actually really funny and I enjoyed doing research and working for a costumer. I have a lot to improve before starting on my final film, but I think it can be done.
I'm ending this post with the movie itself, enjoy!

I saw that a recent discovery had been made, where some scientist discovered that there were strange emanations coming from a building in southern Sweden. The police arrived, charged in, and found that the occupant was merrily trying to split atoms in his kitchen – as a hobby, or so he informed them. He was certainly trying to split something since he had the radioactive elements of uranium, radium, and americium in his apartment. Unimpressed by his private hobby, the police have charged him with unauthorized possession of nuclear materials. Frankly, I'd have other questions – such as where on earth did he get all of the materials, (three different types?) Why did he want to split the atom again when it was originally done many years ago, and having spit one, what did he plan to do with the pieces? Because we all know what splitting it lead to the first time. It may be a good thing the police gathered him in before it happened again and somewhere down the track Sweden – vanished.

Issues that are of variety might be faced by some constructions out there and adapting some changes will be beneficial. However, replacing completely such structures has never been just what they need. Restorations are worth considering in having this benefited. Products that are defective in old homes even have a chance to get better afterward. Take a look at restoration old houses and considerations in hiring contractors.
Undergoing methods and processes will be done to achieve this properly.Keep in mind that only real contractors should achieve this. Staying benefited becomes what you would expect anyway while hiring such people. Another fact is how you remain advantageous whenever you stay prepared here. Something good was definitely expected throughout the way.
Having knowledge towards insurance on a contractor becomes worth working with. For this situation, insurance is meant to be given with importance because you get to affect the product in here. If ever workers have implemented more defects instead, then protection should have been prioritized earlier. It is your right to be concerned with its condition. Something you paid for could get destroyed so ignoring the coverage stays a wrong idea.
Options need not to only limit on whom the family is known to be close with. While processing this, being very objective is a must since it becomes essential to have professionals around. In this job, close friends are merely whom others considered. Maybe their capability is not that impressive to conduct these. Once this gets handled by wrong individuals, the success hardly is gained.
Employees and their knowledge towards restoring need to get checked as well. Such expertise is what makes these individuals highly reliable anyway. Interviews are worth conducting there to discover their background or experience in processes for restoring. Their aid is required so that knowledge is a big consideration.
How much a contractor was needed has been something you think about. Maybe only a few structures or pieces deserve restoration and it benefits you more if the need is too big and many examples deserve it. Bundles usually let you acquire more savings anyway. So that your budget gets benefited, you think how badly this is necessary first before deciding.
The damage and how big it is shall be needed to review on. More would be spent naturally on something where big fixes are required. The service and its overall rate would finally give you an idea after inspecting this. If you only need minor changes, then it becomes good for you since it cannot be that costly if it has never been difficult.
Negotiating smartly is necessary. While negotiating, you obtain discounts too yet it tests your skills as well. Negotiation is never merely accepted by everyone like when bad terms are involved. How others have done it will be great to observe first to receive an idea at how you shall do that next time.
The option which is possibly the best is something to ensure of. Comparing options should be established before an option gets finalized. You cannot forget about evaluating disadvantages and advantages anyway so making one decent choice remains essential.

To update you on the situation of Emfesz (the Hungarian gas provider and frequently remarked upon company) and the murky world of its operations in Hungary, I would suggest you check out this post on the Jamestown Foundation's website. The deal involves a $1.00 transfer of the company in Switzerland, $1 billion fraud and notably famous Russians like Alexander Medvedev and the Kremlin PR machine. While the story itself is noteworthy of underworld business dealings, and whether correct or not I don't know, but the results appear to be that Gazprom now holds a 20% share in the retail gas market in Hungary.
This later point is particularly important and needs a few remarks. If we go on the assumption that at least some parts of this story are true, then that would mean that at least people in Russia know where Hungary is and that very important people in Russia are interested in Hungary. Ok, a basic premises, but something that is important to establish before going foreword. My second point is that this lends credibility to the idea that there is a concerted effort by the Russian government and Russian companies to involve themselves in the downstream business affairs of the Hungarian retail market.
And why is this important to establish and hasn't it been obvious in the past? You may remark. The point is that while Russia and Russian associates bumble around and leave bread crumb trails to track their moves, if a concerted strategy can be detected from multiple events then we can begin to talk of a concerted Russian strategy to control downstream retail assets of energy companies.
The detection of a concerted Russian state and private strategy is important because then we are not relying solely on rumors of who owns Surgutneft (SNG's attempt to take over MOL) for example. Therefore if Gazprom, or some company closely associated with it, owns Emfesz now with 20% of the Hungarian gas market, then dramatic inroads have been in Hungary's newly opened competitive gas market. And competitive it may be, Gazprom's entrance into the UK market resulted in competition occurring and customers switching. We'll have to wait to see what the prices will be on offer. This should be shown in the near furture. In the more distant future is the ownership stakes Russian oil and gas companies will have in Hungary and whether they are taken over through similar tactics.

Eliott Ness, Hercule Poirot, Jessica Fletcher, and Hotspur have one thing in common… they are crime solvers.
Zihua Sail Fest is the height of Zijuatanejo and one of the best events of the year – bringing in numerous volunteers and participants to help raise money for the education of some very disadvantaged children. Many of our friends participated in the parade and the Regatta this year that goes to help more than 400 kids. Here is a funny recap from one of our friends who participated in the Regatta: s/v Just A Minute
Who could have expected that some of those same generous participants of Sailfest would be the victims of a crime? Who would have thought that the Hotspurvians would snap a photograph that would help prove one man's innocence?
Hotspur arrived in Z-Town, as many call it, one day after the 2012 Sailfest Regatta. Awards ceremonies were scheduled and it was well known that many cruisers would not be aboard their vessels after the hour of 4pm. Hotspur was invited to attend, but our crew was tired and we opted to stay aboard and sit in the lovely breeze our cockpit offered us.
The view was spectacular. After sailing in gray rainy conditions to get to Z-town, the sunlight bouncing off the hillside homes was a welcome vision. Sailboats sat primly on their anchors, Hobie Cats weaved their colorful sails in and out of the fleet, and local families frolicked on the inviting beaches. It was a beautiful site.
I ran to get the camera to try and capture the moment. The photos were disappointing – that beautiful reflection just isn't as magical on a computer screen as it is in real time. I put the images away in a folder on my desktop and told myself I'd cull through the photos and toss away the less than exciting pictures later… or so I thought.
The morning following the awards ceremony, s/v Stay Cat and s/v Beyond informed the fleet that they had been robbed. Someone had boarded the vessels (Beyond's hatch had been smashed to gain entrance) and stolen items, including a laptop. Luckily, the thief was interrupted before he absconded with a stack of other expensive equipment, which sat in a pile beside the companionway. More worrisome, a galley knife had been taken and was discovered in another part of the boat. It is probable that the perpetrator used that to arm himself against anyone that may have caught him in the midst of his caper.
Cruisers intend to be helpful to one another, but sometimes hunches and bad vibes just aren't enough to charge a person with such a egregious crime as armed robbery. There were those who immediately radioed that they suspected a heavy set Mexican man who comes by boats in his white canoe to clean the hulls. It has been reported that he scams cruisers by cleaning hulls without being asked to do so, charging $60US and doing a crummy job to boot. But being a lousy bottom cleaner is far different than being a thief. Hotspur was there to save the day - well, at least to save the conviction of an innocent man.
Hotspur's photo captured proof that a small blue boat, probably a kayak, was behind Stray Cat's starboard hull. Though it isn't a clear enough photograph to prove who did it, it is obviously clear enough to prove who didn't do it. Luckily for the man in the white canoe, he was exonerated by my photo.
