With over 6,000 public votes this is, perhaps, the most authoritative ranking of TT riders ever attempted. Instantly recognisable names like John McGuinness, Mike Hailwood, David Jefferies, Geoff Duke, Guy Martin and Joey Dunlop are on the list, but where do these heroes rank? Watch this fascinating run down and find out.

Once again I am under attack for voting Brexit, and this time things have got personal.
Over the weekend I have been attacked on social media because I voted Brexit. It is no secret which way I voted in the EU referendum, as I was very vocal about Brexit last year and have continued to defend my decision.
'Remainers' have been keen to repeatedly tell me that just 37% of Britain voted to leave the EU and for that reason we should have a second referendum – basically because they are not prepared to accept the outcome of the referendum.
But the sheer hypocrisy of Remainers has reached a new level. Some of them have known me on social media for more than three years and I remember them attacking Scottish nationalists and the SNP for calling for a second independence referendum.
Remainers cannot have it both ways; they cannot attack Scottish nationalists and the SNP for pursuing a second independence referendum whilst they call for a second EU referendum. This is hypocrisy and double standards on the Remainers' part.
I voted Brexit for four reasons:
- To take control of EU migration
- To take control of our borders
- Sovereignty
- To be liberated from EU bureaucracy
At no point did I listen to the false promises coming from Boris Johnson, who said leaving the EU would mean an extra £350m a week for the NHS. Despite touring the country with that pledge on the side of a red bus and making the same pledge during an EU referendum debate live on ITV, Boris Johnson has now claimed that he never made this pledge.
People should stop directing their anger at me for voting Brexit and direct it at the Tories instead. The Tories have badly handled Brexit from the outset which is damaging the economy – and is why David Cameron did a runner. Theresa May irresponsibly delaying Brexit negotiations in favour of a pointless snap general election also damaged the economy. Her gamble on 8 June backfired and she only has herself to blame. Serves her right.
The Tories are in complete disarray over Brexit and the party is deeply divided; they are even unable to decide whether Britain will remain in the Single Market and how long the Brexit transitional period – or free EU movement – will be when Britain leaves the EU in 2019. It is totally shambolic and David Davies, the Tories' Brexit Secretary, is nothing more than a laughingstock.
The EU is demanding Britain pay up to £80bn to leave the EU, and over the weekend the Dutch MP put that figure at £50bn. This 'EU divorce settlement' needs to be negotiated, EU leaders cannot just pluck figures out of thin air. David Davies should tell the EU to go whistle for any sums of money until it has audited its books, something which it has not done since the 1980s. And once audited, it should then publish the results.
One of the most toxic EU figures is Jean-Claude Juncker, who received an £8,700 pay rise while imposing austerity on the Greeks. But that said, the Tories have done exactly the same in Britain.
Jeremy Corbyn and Labour, however, have made it clear that if they were in power Britain would leave the Single Market and free EU movement would end in 2019. That said, there are a number of Labour MPs who are intent on sabotaging the party's Brexit strategy, and one of those MPs is Chuka Umunna.
In September 2016, Chuka Umunna publicly said that Britain should be prepared to leave the Single Market, yet nine months later he is saying that Britain should remain in the Single Market. He has one aim only and that is to split Labour over Brexit. How anyone can take him seriously on Brexit is beyond me.
Jeremy Corbyn is respecting the outcome of the EU referendum and is committed to deliver a Brexit that benefits everyone and not just a few. Labour's heartlands in the North of England voted Brexit by 75% and Corbyn is listening to them. In fact, he has won back swathes of support in the North after decades of neglect, dating back to the days of Neil Kinnock and New Labour. And he crushed UKIP.
Under New Labour the party lost nearly 4 million votes between 1997 and 2010, many of whom were working class voters. Many of these voters turned to the BNP in 2005, and from 2010 onwards they turned to UKIP. This was not because they were racist, it was because both the BNP and UKIP were the only parties listening to working class people, especially in Labour's northern heartlands who felt left behind by New Labour and their concerns about immigration were being ignored.
Here in Thurrock, the borough voted Brexit by 73% and support has not gone away. When I campaigned for Labour in Thurrock in 2014 and 2015, New Labour was toxic on the doorsteps and many residents were angry that Ed Miliband would not offer an EU referendum. Miliband underestimated the mood in Thurrock, in Labour's northern heartlands and in other parts of the country which is why the party lost millions of votes to the Tories and UKIP.
Recently, London-centric Labour MPs have attacked Brexit and called for Britain to remain in the Single Market. This would mean that EU freedom of movement would continue, despite the majority of people voting Brexit because of EU migration. London mayor Sadiq Khan and Labour MPs Diane Abbott, David Lammy, Wes Streeting and Chuka Umunna have demonstrated that they are out of touch with Labour's northern heartlands and with the rest of the country. They simply do not have a clue what life is like outside of their London bubbles.
If Labour takes their advice, as well as that of the Lib Dems and Remainers, then the party's support in the north of England will collapse, and it will be to the advantage of the Tories. If that were to happen you can bet your life they will personally hold Jeremy Corbyn responsible rather than take responsibility of their own actions.
The personal attacks I have encountered over the weekend are abhorrent. I have been labelled a racist, a xenophobe, a Nazi, a Tory and a Kipper. And I have been likened to the BNP. These personal attacks are no different to the abuse that came from Remainer Bob Geldof, a foul-mouthed millionaire tax exile, who last year verbally abused a convoy Brexit supporters on the River Thames with a megaphone.
I am absolutely sick of the rich and the elite using their wealth to influence political decisions. Many working class people voted Brexit, yet we have millionaires like Tony Blair, Neil Kinnock, Bob Geldof, Gina Miller, Richard Branson and Charlie Mullins using their wealth to override the will of millions of working class people who voted Brexit. These millionaires only want Britain to remain in the EU to suit their own financial arrangements.
The hypocrisy of the Remainers has reached new heights, as many of them complain about wealthy Rupert Murdoch influencing politics and oppose him taking 100% control of Sky TV for that very reason – but they have no problem sharing platforms with a millionaire tax exile like Bob Geldof or greedy capitalists like Richard Branson and Gina Miller.
I have heard on the grapevine that Remainers will hold demonstrations outside the Labour, Tory and UKIP conferences in the autumn, no doubt Bob Geldof will be there with his foot soldiers verbally abusing people through his megaphone.

Dan is the man behind the antlers, so to speak. What's really cool about Dan is that he seems to love sharing his passion, his art, and really creating an awesome niche in the jewelry world. I am happy to be sharing his shop and his work with all of you! The selection and creativity of his work are pretty endless! The prices are incredibly reasonable and you will be able to own and wear a work of art and a piece of nature. LOVE!!
Here is a photo, from the Facebook gallery of Dan Arjes
As you might have noticed, Dan has a huge array of jewelry that he hand creates. He has rings, pendants, earrings, earrings with embellishments, bracelets and more. The other really neat thing about this guy is he is an Elementary Art teacher! I know as a kid (or a teenager...or college student) having a teacher that was this creative would have been really inspiring. I cannot imagine some of the fun assignments and lessons that these classes must get to venture into!
Above are the earrings that Dan kindly shared with me, so that I could share with all of you. They are antler hoops embellished with turquoise--one of my favorites! The fishhooks are good quality metal and as a person highly sensitive to metal afflictions, I've had no problems at all. As you can see, they look great with "hunter" blaze orange. I plan to wear them with my everyday outfits as well as with my Haley Vines Outdoor Collection hunting gear! Beautiful for every occasion! I think it would have been really neat to have these earrings (or something similar) for wedding jewelry. I've seen plenty of hunter-inspired wedding themes (Thank You, Duck Dynasty) this season, so why not add some gorgeous ivory colored earrings?
Dan's creations can be found in the South Dakota area, where he resides, so look for his booth at an artisan fair near you! South Dakota is one of my most favorite places to explore the outdoors, so it's only fitting that my new most favorite piece of jewelry hail from that area as well.
I implore you, check out Dan's Facebook page, it is where you can see all the really amazing wearable art and jewelry that he's created. So many wonderful photos showcase his immense talent. To me, it is so much more fun and meaningful to wear jewelry with stories and real people behind them, rather than mass-produced big box store type stuff. I wish I had thought of this as a resource for my wedding rings, since deer and elk (and other animals) knock around their antlers during their breeding "rut" season, they are very hardy. Since my husband is tough on stuff, this would be an awesome option for guys like him!
My ONLY tidbit that I'd like to recommend to readers and customers is that you use a plastic/wax/wood stopper on the back of the earring to keep them in place. The earrings are not overly heavy AT ALL which did surprise me, being that antlers are not light, but they are hoops, so there is not much material to carry about. It does make you feel for the deer though, thinking of so much more mass to tote about the forest! However, they do have a bit of forward pull, so to keep your wearable art on your ears, I'd recommend those "post-back holder thingys" as some added insurance.
Fun Facts (the "wildlifer" in me has to take advantage of this teachable moment...and it's interesting!)
In the spirit of the season, I've included Dan Arjes art in my hunting forays. I have no problem toting my weapon, in search of subsistence for my family while wearing something so beautiful. But, I also wear them when I go out to a movie or to coffee with friends.
Antlers are a renewable resource (different than HORNS) and do not hurt the animal when they are harvested as "sheds." Shed-hunting is a hobby that many folks in the Midwest (and other areas with ungulates that are antler-bearing) enjoy.
The antlers drop usually in the winter time and grow back each year, mostly on males, but some species have antlered females as well.
**Disclosure - I was provided a complimentary pair of earrings to complete this post. Thank you for the generosity, Dan Arjes, I will treasure my earrings and share your art with all of those who ask! My opinions are of course 100% honest and my own. I was not compensated in any other way. **

Church Square went back 50 years recently as the cast of the movie Winnie hit town as Hollywood actress and singer Jennifer Hudson walked down the stairs of the Palace of Justice in Pretoria, bystanders were transported back to South Africa's apartheid past, with white policemen guarding the court.
Director Darrell J Roodt - who also directed Cry, The Beloved Country and Sarafina! -his crew and about 300 extras were on Church Square shooting scenes of Nelson Mandela, being played by Terrence Howard, where he burnt his passbook during the Defiance Campaign and to where prisoners walked during the Rivonia trial.
When it was announced last year that Hudson was to play the lead role of Winnie Madikizela-Mandela, the Creative Workers Union of South Africa argued that using foreign actors to tell South African stories undermined efforts to develop a national film industry.
But yesterday the extras on set were thrilled about rubbing shoulders with Hollywood actors. Tumelo Maile said: "This is a great platform for us. We have been given an opportunity to showcase our talent alongside two Hollywood actors." The crew will move to Joburg for three weeks, then go to Cape Town.

Hi All,
Following our update earlier in the week - we were pretty much spot on with our predicitions - we said go long Dow on Monday morning (take profit at 50 points) and then sell, the Dow rose about 60 odd points and then sold off approx 200 points yesterday.
Key risks remain; Ireland, China currency and now Inflation concerns, and of course the hangover from QE2.
Stay on the sidelines for now.
We'll take a fresh view after the economic data that is expected to be released later in the day.
Have a good day.

Michael Doxey
Michael is constantly expanding the art of ceramics by seeking out and developing new techniques and expanding his vision of the art itself. When examining work from a thousand years ago he looks for small fingerprints. He sees how a person held the pot; how the maker left his body in the clay; and this gives him a connection to that person, their process, and the ancient joy that comes from the act of creating.
For Michael the processes of using the material 'freezes' a moment. Thus his works are like bookmarks – or frozen moments. His use of material supports living in the moment, and pushes the technical limits of the medium. The result is a form, a single piece, but in fact is really a continuum of creation. The work symbolizes life forces. His work combines an artistic experience with a rugged functionality.
Michael produces work for the garden and table, attentive to both form and function – but is equally recognized for his ceramic tile murals and large urns.
Specializing in wood-soda firing, Michael imbues his vision in all aspects of the production: making his own clay; designing and making all work himself; making his own clay slip glazes; preparing the 2 full cords of white cedar slab for fuelling the kiln; and firing by stoking the wood kiln by himself for up to 28 hours!
Michael is still exploring his childhood love of the Natural World, taking his influence from the waterways and rocks of his rural surroundings.

New age workshop
I have a few of my own for while I am not averse to holistic therapies, I have filed crystals in the slightly-too-New-Age-for-me category. 'I attended one of Julie's workshops just over a year ago and I've been using crystals ever since,' says Sarah [Al Shafei], a Bahraini novelist. When she attended the first workshop, Sarah says she was feeling mentally blocked and depressed, but crystals helped her both creatively and emotionally. 'I began wearing citrine when I was feeling down and noticed an improvement in my mood so I started using other crystals such as amethyst to boost my confidence and jade to deflect an oncoming temper. 'Crystals are living beings made from earth and fire that store and emit energy,' Julie tells me, 'and since our bodies are also made up of crystalline substances – water, blood, minerals – they affect and resonate with our own energies. Crystals can therefore be used to amplify and balance our frequencies or clear negative energy. If all it takes is a crystal to keep my emotions on an even keel, I'm in, but can an apparently inanimate object really achieve this? Clasping a crystal certainly has more appeal than popping pills, but I'm still not inclined to place my health entirely in the hands of a pretty rock. 'Crystal healing is a complementary therapy used in addition to mainstream medicine, although many people do attribute their recovery from various illnesses wholly to crystals. ' For all the success stories however, there is no hard scientific evidence to support crystal healing power, and many share the view expressed by Lawrence E Jerome in his book Crystals: The Ultimate Placebo Effect that their success rate is more to do with the power of the mind than that of the stones. ' She suggests I try chakra balancing, 'a particulary effective way of tapping into crystals' natural energy', so I lie down and she aligns a colourful array of gems with my energy centres. Resident in Spain, Julie will be running a two-day workshop on chakra-balancing in Bahrain on March 27-28.

What interests me about diamonds is that although it is so expensive, many females where it as their engagement rings. As a symbol of unity and commitment, the diamond represents love, romance, trust and everlasting togetherness. Diamonds reflect all the colours of the rainbow, which in turn represent the 7 main chakras. Diamonds can open and stimulate all of the chakras, though it specifically works with the heart, third eye, crown and etheric chakras. Diamond is a very sovereign stone, long-believed to carry divine energies. Diamonds bring out the inner king or queen in this way, encouraging calm knowingness, power and majesty – much like the tarot cards of the emperor and empress represent. Diamonds are the jewel of the first ray and the masters of light of the first ray, activating the crown chakra and thus a powerful tool for connection to the Divine. A diamond in essence embodies purity, divine white light and crystal clear consciousness of Christ. Diamonds cleanse the aura and filter out any negative residue, allowing one's inner light to shine and radiate outwards in pure, magnificent ways. Diamond is a powerful energy amplifier and does not need recharging, just like selenite. I am sure after reading this, if not right at this moment, then when the time feels right, you will pull out your diamond and look at it in new empowered ways. May diamond work with you to step into your power and in expressing your truth and sovereignity with clear vision and a higher state of mind.

MIDDLETOWN — Middletown police are continuing to investigate the shooting of a man Wednesday on Forest Avenue.
At about 1:30 p.m., dispatchers received a call from an man screaming in pain and saying he had been "shot or something" in the leg.
FIRST REPORT: Several people questioned after man shot in Middletown
When officers arrived they found a 31-year-old man lying on the floor of an upstairs apartment, according to the police report. The man was taken to a local hospital for treatment of a leg wound.
When dispatchers asked the man who shot him, he said he didn't know.
The victim said he was in the alley behind his house when he was shot
"I crawled inside … I am laying on the floor. I am in severe pain," he told dispatchers during the 911 call.

The man said he was not fighting with anyone and didn't see or hear anything.
Dispatchers then asked to speak with the girlfriend of the victim, who said she also did not hear anything.
"He had literally just walked outside," the woman said.
The woman told dispatchers she was sure it was a gunshot that wounded her boyfriend.
"You can see the bullet," she said.

Odd Ball Friend
Rating: PG-13
Diana & MaceVindaloo
Obi-wan rather preferred the nicknames the Clone soldiers took for themselves. It made them more human.
For Obi-wan, like for most of the galaxy, he could not think of the Clone troopers as full humans. They didn't have parents, they had no choices. They were bred to master a particular set of skills, and really for nothing else. They were curiously limited, despite their human looks and nature.
He did occasionally enjoy their company and relied on them, and he found they could be good friends ... if he could use that word. The term "friend" seemed to have warped lately. He used to know what a friend was, and he used to know who among those around him was a friend.
In these dangerous times, it would be wise to keep one's friends close ... but Master Windu had warned him, "Keep your enemies closer."
The problem was that he couldn't tell who his enemies were, either.
There was Count Dooku, of course. But that thought bothered him, for Dooku had been Obi-wan's master's master. It made Obi-wan feel tainted, as if the dark side which covered the former Jedi had conveyed itself somehow through to the himself.
In this way, the clones were preferable. They had been engineered to have no free will, it was true. But that meant there was no intrinsic evil within their cloned souls. Even the extreme individualism in Jango Fett, the bounty hunter who was their genetic template, was scrubbed out of them.
All the good parts, none of the dross.
Still, they had enough humanity left in them that did evolve as time went on. They aged at twice the rate of normal humans, so some who'd fought under Obi-wan's command were already retired from combat. The effect was as if Obi-wan himself had grown older, faster, too. It telescoped time compressively, so that he found himself thinking of the war in terms of clone-lives, rather than in normal human-lifetimes.
He remembered "Alpha" with whom he had escaped imprisonment and torture by Asaji Ventress on Jabim. That clone simply had taken a part of his official numerical ARC trooper designation as his name; there were 100 of them, and they were all called "Alpha." The command-level clone held some disdain for Jedi Knights, simply because they'd been bred from a more pure genetic stock taken from Jango Fett, which even included some of his memories. They did respect the Jedi, however, "for they killed Jango." It was a strange, begrudged respect, but Obi-wan didn't mind; it made the clones less like mindless puppets.
He also remembered A-98, or "Nate", one of the four ARC troopers who'd come with him and Kit Fisto to Cestus. That clone had become a human, in Obi-wan's eyes. It wasn't that he truly cared for others who were not his own military brethren, and it wasn't that he'd fathered a child before he'd died. "Nate" had touched the Force in a way the other clones had not before, and it opened Obi-wan's ability to trust and train with other clones.
He smiled as he remembered that not all clones were born identical. Some were programmed and trained as ARC (Advanced Reconnaissance Clone) troopers specializing in command or specific tasks; those were the ones who seemed to be able to reach individual sentience, being more like Jango than the grunts. But others were born with physical imperfections which might have resulted in their early terminations. But as the war wore on, the need for more soldiers had been anticipated by the Kaminoan cloners, and they had retained those imperfect specimens which could still be used as specified.
Of course, as they grew, some clones retained scars or became injured. In war, they lost body parts and since they'd been engineered to accept prosthetics readily, many functioned at nearly 100% capacity with artificial limbs.
Sometimes, the body part could be lost and no one would be the wiser.
Obi-wan himself knew the terrible secret of the imperfect clone flying beside him. For he'd done the highly illegal surgery to save his life, and was also thus privy to the nickname the clone bore.
* * * * *
Commander A-1175 had separated himself from his fellow pilots, and he came directly to Obi-wan with the attitude of a man about to make a confession.
"I don't want to tell the medics or the bro's," he'd said, referring to the soldiers he commanded. "They're not tolerant of deviations. So, I'm coming to you, in confidence, sir."
Obi-wan didn't look worried. How deviant could an engineered clone be? "What is it?" He didn't like referring to the clones by their coded designations.
"It's my ... testicle, sir. There's a lump on it." A-1175 looked only slightly stressed as he said this.
"Hernia? The medic would be able to treat "
"No, sir. It's right on the bottom of my left testicle. I think it's a cancer, sir. And ... and they say you're a gifted healer, sir." The clone continued to look calm, though the speed of his speech belied his stress and nervousness.
Waves of worry through the Force had been emanating from the clone trooper were pure, and Obi-wan felt empathy for this perfect man. "Well, let's take a look. Drop 'em, please."
Obi-wan did indeed find a hard lump on the man's testicle. When he squeezed it gently, the clone let out an unsuccessfully restrained grunt through gritted teeth.
Obi-wan sighed, "Well, that must hurt ... it'll have to go, I'm sorry."
Beads of perspiration appeared suddenly, unprompted, on the clone's forehead. "Yes, sir. Can you do it now?"
Obi-wan was not purely a healer like other Jedi; his strong talents lay elsewhere. Still, he had more than average skills and he was able to perform more than just first aid, due to his particularly strong connection to the Force. He was actually an excellent surgeon for a variety of species. Mace Windu often joked that Obi-wan was the one person who would have been hindered by a formal education; it would have just gotten in the way of his innate talent.
As Obi-wan opened his medpaks and powered up the sanitizing units to use as sterilization equipment, he explained to A-1175 that what he was about to do was highly irregular, and he might be court-martialed if he were found to be doing non-essential field surgery on an active soldier!
The clone smiled at the Jedi Knight's concerns. "I doubt they'd question a General's actions when it saves a soldier, sir."
Obi-wan smiled back. "Yes ... well, hopefully the cure doesn't kill you." Then he explained to the clone that with a cancer, one of the concerns is that the tumor remain intact and not "spill" to adjacent tissue.
"So, I'm making the incision up in your abdomen, and pulling the testicle up through the channels in your groin, and cut it off there. This way, it won't infect all the other stuff in your scrotum, and we get to see if any of the abnormal cells made it to your lymph." Obi-wan traced the area on the clone's body, so he'd know where to expect the pain. "I'm sorry, but I don't have much in the way of anesthetic in this triage-kit. Only some topical ..."
"It's okay, sir," the clone smiled again, albeit grimly. "I'm trained to handle pain. You'll find that surgical pain is nothing to me."
Obi-wan smiled too, "Well, you're a better man than me ..."
"No sir," replied A-1175, "I'm a clone trooper, Grand Army of the Republic, sir. I do my brethren proud, sir."
"Okay ... okay, you'll feel a little pinch ..." Obi-wan winced, remembering being told this before receiving injections and inoculations, and knowing it was never "a little pinch." He made the cut swiftly and skillfully, and pulled the underlying muscle fibers apart, found the next bit he needed to cut, then forced clamps down to lift out the diseased gonad ...
As Obi-wan stitched the living flesh together, layer after layer, it occurred to him that he'd heard nothing from the trooper. He was surprised to see the clone had become unconscious!
Human after all, mused Obi-wan, as he cleaned up the wound.
He'd given standard antibiotic packs to A-1175 when he'd recovered consciousness, to avoid the onset of infection. Obi-wan also had run some pathology observations on the extracted testicle and had confirmed to the trooper that it was indeed a semiotic cancer, but the margins were clean, "That is, the cancer was caught in time. It hadn't spread. Barring getting killed in battle, you should live to a ripe old age!"
The clone saluted to Obi-wan. "Thank you, sir. I very much appreciate what you've done, and I promise to save your life, too."
Obi-wan smiled, "I know ... it's your job. I appreciate the sentiment, and don't think I won't remember that. And by the way ... I won't tell, if you won't!"
The solider smiled at Obi-wan, terminated his salute, and left Obi-wan's field office, not even limping in reaction to the quick surgery. Obi-wan marvelled at the Clone's tolerance to pain. The Jedi had only known of women who could endure such pain, never men, and then only in childbirth ...
* * * * *
Over Coruscant, Squad Seven flew piquet duty and thus were the first to inform the Jedi and the Chancellor of the arrival of General Grievous's fleet and flagship! The enemy separatists had brought the battle to the capitol.
The orbital battle raged and with a lack of adequate protection, the Chancellor was kidnapped!
In the Jedi Temple war room, the commander of Squad Seven stood amidst Jedi and statesmen, who were squabbling over what to do? They could not confront Grievous directly for fear of him executing the leader of the Republic. And too, they had sent so many Jedi and troops to the outer rim planets, they were woefully undermanned to do direct battle, in any case.
Jedi Master Windu outlined a plan to have lone Jedi infiltrate the flagship ... but had to admit that the Temple currently lacked Jedi with enough piloting and combat skill who also specialized in infiltration.
"Sir, may I suggest something?" The Squad Seven commander spoke. "Perhaps two of your best warriors could be recalled? If they could get here in a day or so, my pilots and I will harass the fleet and prevent them from leaving. And then perhaps the politicians could attempt negotiations, to stall for time."
Windu looked startled, "Yes ... yes, my thoughts exactly. But we'd need Kenobi he's a superb pilot and possibly the best warrior, with the capacity to negotiate. But he's out in the field, at least a week away, with Skywalker."
"Are they still alive," blustered Orn Free Taa, the senator from Ryloth. "I had heard from good sources that Skywalker had been killed and Kenobi taken prisoner!"
He felt a startled feeling of panic and surprise through the Force coming from the direction of the politicians. The sorrow and fear were concentrated especially around Senator Amidala of Naboo.
Windu refused to acknowledge the rumor or the Senator and instead turned to the pilot-commander. "How long can you stall Grievous? You'll need to prevent the Hand from leaving the system." He was referring to the ship from which Chancellor Palpatine's homing beacon was signaling.
The clone replied crisply, "If you're recalling General Kenobi, we can give you all the time he needs. He'll make it back in time, I'm sure of it."
Windu smiled for the first time, albeit grimly. "I'm glad to hear your opinion of the General's skills; he may well find a way to time travel! Submit your plan to the Council, and I'll have Kenobi's orders delivered. Dismissed."
As he left the war room, the Jedi Master felt confusion and more panic from the assembled senators, but he also felt a pure thread of glee and happiness coming from the clone. It was not usual for Windu to discern any extremes in emotion from clones, so it gave him pause. But he decided it was a good thing that the man enjoyed his job.
* * * * *
General Kenobi and Commander Skywalker had returned to the capitol system quickly; they indeed had arrived faster than anyone could have predicted.
It was not well known that Mace Windu was a time traveler; it was one of the things which made him unusual and outstanding even among the Jedi. He could not do it at will; it was the Force which controlled his ability to move through time. But there were aspects of the experience he was able to teach to others, so that they could use some ideas to travel more quickly through space.
In addition, Skywalker had developed many flight tactics which involved hyperspace manipulation, and though traveling under such conditions were not true time-travel, in practice, it did shave off hours off a long trip. And so the two Jedi arrived on the outer planets of the Coruscant system mere days after receiving their orders.
Obi-wan was irritable; he loved being with Anakin Skywalker more than anyone else, but sometimes Anakin's restlessness and headstrong approach to battle tactics were simply exhausting. It was mostly the exhaustion, plus the cold fact that Obi-wan had recently been forced to sacrifice a small specialist unit of ARC troopers. Though he repeatedly told himself that the clones were not really human, he also knew that they were good men. They were engineered to be good, and they did not deserve to be reviled because they'd been created by cloners to do the dirty work the general population had not wished to do themselves. Despite his battle-hardened exterior, the deaths of sentients always bothered Obi-wan.
So the two Jedi were very quiet as they checked their respective spacecraft. They had learned not to get too close to others on dangerous commando-style missions, because their eventual deaths in battle would otherwise sting at them too hard.
And they knew this assignment would have many, many casualties. They had to hope, that for the good of the Republic, that they themselves did not become two more listed kills in battle. They had heard the rumors that both were dead or captured, and they had no desire to confirm them.
Anakin went to the 'droid bay to check on his personal astromech, R2D2. Obi-wan felt it was bad form to have a "personal 'droid" after all, the Jedi were to own nothing, so that they would have nothing to lose.
Anakin got around the ownership question at the Temple by explaining that it was a loan from Senator Amidala, who had received the 'droid when she retired as Queen of Naboo. It was the only gift she'd specifically requested from the government, but she had found that she could not use the 'droid to his full capacity. "Besides," she'd said, "R2 craves excitement and seems to be happier with you," she'd told the Jedi.
Obi-wan had been mulling over all these irregularities was R2 truly only a loaner 'droid? that he did not realize one of the clones had approached him, and was clearing his throat, waiting to be recognized.
Seeing the yellow markings on the uniform and helmet of the man before him, he recognized him as an elite ARC trooper. "Yes, Commander?"
"General Kenobi, it's a pleasure to see you again."
Obi-wan was perplexed by the "again," but smiled, "You have me at a disadvantage, Commander. All clones are meant to look alike ..."
The clone laughed, "Look alike, yes. But not all of us are perfect." He extended his hand, "You may remember me, I'm the one they call 'Odd Ball'."
Obi-wan looked closely at the clone, "Cato Neimoidia?"
The clone smiled again and their hands parted. "No, sir, I did fight there but not with you. Whether you recall me or not, I have to say that it's a pleasure for me to see you again, and I thought you might like to have known that your potential act of court-martial did save my life. And on this mission, I will fulfill my promise to save yours!"
A tender smile crept across Obi-wan's face, signalling to the clone that at last, he was remembered. "Odd Ball ... quite an apt nickname! Did the bro's discover your imperfection?"
"No, sir," replied Odd Ball, "I must say, you are talented at stitching! It looked like any other grievous battle scar."
Obi-wan laughed, and it felt good. "You're certainly odd enough to have received that nickname some other way, I see!"
The man smiled crookedly, with a touch of pride. "Thank you, sir. Though only you and I know what it really means."
They continued to banter and laugh for so long that Anakin had come back from the 'droid pool, R2D2 in tow. The site of his mentor yucking it up with a clone was a startling site. Anakin often wondered if his old-before-his-time master even knew how to have fun.
Obi-wan didn't see him till his former Padawan was right beside him, "Master?"
"Anakin!" There was pure and honest glee in Obi-wan's face, "Here! Meet my 'odd balled' friend, an old friend from a few battles back Commander Odd Ball, of Squad Seven. They're going to be running interference for us and watching our tails ... though I'd warned him that anyone watching your tail was in danger of being vaped along with you! Odd Ball, this is Anakin!"
The clone pumped the younger man's hand vigorously, "A pleasure to know you! Any friend of the General's ... well, is a friend of the General's!"
Anakin was startled at this display of humor from a clone, "Is this why you're called Odd Ball?"
"Why yes it is, Anakin," gasped Obi-wan, laughing harder. "Why else would you call a perfect man such a thing?" And the clone joined him in chuckling.
It was obviously their own little joke, and even though Anakin knew he was being excluded from the true meaning, he smiled for he liked seeing Obi-wan happy. "Well, any friend of Obi-wan ... is a friend of Obi-wan's!"
The three had to part to attend the briefing, and all put on their serious miens for the benefit of the holograms they stood with. But they were lighthearted getting into their ships, despite the grimness of their upcoming project.
Obi-wan even had some nice things to say to R2D2, "Take good care of Anakin, my little friend. The galaxy needs men like him." He even pat his dome affectionately.
Anakin did wonder what had gone on in his master's past that a clone a man who was manufactured and crafted like a 'droid was built could get past Obi-wan's battle-hardened shell. He wondered what secrets those men had between them?
As he climbed into his fighter, he thought of his own secret and smiled broadly. He'd been overjoyed to be recalled to Coruscant, even for this suicide mission. For his secret wife was on planet! He would get to see her as soon as this mission was over!
He whistled merrily into the comlink so that Obi-wan could hear his happy sounds, which made Obi-wan cranky, which in turn made Anakin cheerful. It was their routine, between friends.
Best not to ask, reflected Anakin, as he put on his headgear and ran through the starfighter's checklist. We all have our secrets. Harmless little things, really ...

Ministry Scheduler/Manual Schedule Select items
When you add a ministry to an event AFTER having run the auto scheduler, the event will NOT show up in the manual schedule.
Here is an example of how you may fix this:
- Alter Server not initially included in event, Auto Scheduler is run, Altar Server Added to event, Alter Server does not show up in Manual Scheduler
- To resolve this for ONLY this ministry, go into Auto Schedule, Select the Specific Date, select the 'Schedule Selected Events/Ministries'
- Uncheck all events except the one for which you want to update the schedule. Uncheck all Ministries except the one that was initially left off when your first ran Auto Schedule. Click Next.
- You will get the report.
- Now when you go into Manual Schedule, the Ministry will be there. As you can see, if you do not remove the extra Alter Server item from the Event, you will have too many.

Forexpros - European stock markets rose on Monday, as markets eyed a meeting of euro zone finance ministers to discuss a Greek bailout and as China cut banks' reserve requirements. During European morning trade, the EURO STOXX 50 climbed 1.02%, France's CAC 40 advanced 0.94%, while Germany's DAX 30 jumped 1%. Sentiment was boosted as investors expected euro zone finance ministers to approve a much needed EUR130 billion bailout for Greece at a meeting in Brussels later in the day. Without a bailout, Athens faces the threat of defaulting when a EUR14.5 billion bond redemption comes due on March 20. Investor confidence also strengthened after China cut the amount of cash banks must hold in their reserves on Saturday, boosting lending capacity in an effort to spur the world's second-biggest economy. Financial stocks led gains as shares in Italy's Unicredit jumped 1.90% and Spanish BBVA climbed 1.45%. French lenders Societe Generale and BNP Paribas were also higher, with shares advancing 1.21% and 0.84%, while Germany's Deutsche Bank and Commerzbank surged 1.19% and 1.88% respectively. Elsewhere, TNT Express NV skyrocketed 54.96% after Europe's second-largest package-delivery company rejected a USD6.43 billion takeover offer from UPS. On the downside, Carlsberg, the owner of Russia's biggest brewer, declined 0.87% after the company posted a 4.2% drop in 2011 profit on weaker sales in Russia and higher input costs. In London, FTSE 100 advanced 0.77%, boosted by gains in energy stocks while industry data showed that house prices in the U.K. rose 4.1% on February. BP soared 2.12% as oil prices surged after Iran said it halted some crude exports and investors expect fuel demand to increase. Mining giants Bhp Billiton and Rio Tinto also added to gains, with shares climbing 2.11% and 1.59%, while copper producers Xstrata and Kazakhmys jumped 1.36% and 2.36%. Meanwhile, U.K. lenders were mixed. The Royal Bank of Scotland saw shares jump 1.59%, and Lloyds Banking rose 1.29%, while HSBC Holdings slipped 0.12%. In the U.S., equity markets pointed to a higher open. The Dow Jones Industrial Average futures pointed to a rise of 0.49%, S&P 500 futures signaled a 0.43% increase, while the Nasdaq 100 futures indicated a 0.52% gain.

If you're looking for travel inspiration, have you thought about visiting Denmark? A beautiful country with everything from bustling cities to rugged coastlines, Denmark has something for everybody. If you've never been before, what are you waiting for?
The most logical place to start on your voyage of discovery in Denmark is its enigmatic capital, Copenhagen. A trendy hub famed for its creative residents and its colourful buildings, you'll be spoiled for choice when it comes to planning your city break itinerary. Highlights include Tivoli Gardens, the Little Mermaid, Rosenborg Castle and the Queen's winter residence, Amalienborg. Once you've ticked off the tourist hotspots, you can easily while away hours meandering through the streets, checking out hip galleries and indulging in local delicacies. If you're a foodie, this is the place to be with an abundance of fine dining restaurants on offer. The harbor, Nyhavn, is a spectacle you won't want to miss and there's always a lively atmosphere. Copenhagen has a relaxed, Bohemian vibe and a visit is the perfect excuse to embrace the Danish concept of hygge. Wrap up, get cosy, chill out and don't worry about a thing.
Known as Denmark's garden island, Fyn is the second largest island. It is famed for being the home of iconic author Hans Christian Andersen, and it's also incredibly beautiful, which makes it a popular choice for anglers, hikers and those looking to enjoy a day at the beach. If you're keen on fishing, try your hand at catching seatrout in Fyn. The rugged coastline offers some of the best fishing opportunities in the country. For those who want to discover more about the culture and lifestyle, there's no better way to spend a day than exploring Egeskov Castle and the charming town of Faaborg. Adorned with quaint cottages and narrow streets, this is a truly beautiful spot, take a trip to the harbor and look out for the vibrant yellow bell tower.
Aarhus is Denmark's second city. Although less busy than Copenhagen, Aarhus is starting to make a splash on the tourist scene, and visitor numbers are increasing steadily. It's no wonder that more and more people are falling for this city's charms and its eclectic vibe. Old blends with new effortlessly here and there's a vibrant cultural scene. You won't struggle to find museums and galleries here, and there's an array of live music venues on offer. Gastronomy is also a subject of great interest in this part of Denmark, and there's an ever-expanding collection of restaurants offering all kinds of innovative dishes in addition to an impressive display of stalls selling delicious, inexpensive street food. Top attractions include the winding streets of the Old Town, Moesgaard Museum and ARoS Aarhus Kuntsmuseum.
If you haven't been to Denmark yet, it's time to have a look at fights and start planning your trip. Whether you're keen to escape to the serene beaches of the islands or you're hoping to live it up in the heart of Copenhagen, there's something for everyone. See the sights, taste the food and embrace laid-back living.
This post is a collaborative effort. While not written by me, Diane, I liked the content enough to publish it here on Wife with Baggage. I hope it encourages, educates and entices you to travel more!

To believe that your family consists only of your biological family is to limit your family ties.
Think of your family as existing outside the scope of your biological family. Expand your definition of family to include those souls that you resonate with…be they human or celestial. When you widen your scope of family, you widen your opportunities for deeper bonding.
If you will open yourself to the idea that family can come in many disguises, you will experience love on a broader scale

text: Bacteria or yeast often cause ear infections in dogs. Excessive hair, moisture or wax in the ear canals can make infections more prevalent. Dogs with floppy ears are more likely to get ear infections. Examine your dog's ears frequently and look for redness and dark wax or other discharge in the ear canal. Your dog may also scratch his ears or rub them on the floor or furniture. Some dogs will shake their heads when they have an infected ear. To help prevent ear infections, trim the hair inside your dog's ears and keep them dry. Clean your dog's ears with a dog-safe ear rinse and cotton swabs about twice a month. You may use cotton swabs but don't insert swabs any deeper than you can see to prevent damage to the eardrum. If you see any symptoms of ear infection, make an appointment with your Castle Hills, TX veterinary clinic for evaluation and treatment as needed.

Today, work was a blast. All three of us came in costume, Shami as a groupie, Jay as a woman, and I as a man. Keith came in and took some pix of us, and after having Shami and Jay hanging on me in one of the pix I decided that I was the poor man's pimp. The suit I was wearing wasn't flashy enough, I didn't have enough bling, but I did have a hat and cane. Jay looked phenomenal as a woman, but I think I looked better in his suit, then again that's just my ego talking. It was so fun.
Isn't it amazing how the words "shut up and get over it" can instantly make you smile? I was having typical stupid girl confidence issues last night, and Jeff made a very valid and truthful point then proceeded to tell me to "shut up and get over it". It was a little strange that those six words made me realise just how stupid and typically female I was being. I feel.....different. I feel like I should have felt with every relationship I've ever been in. Safe. Loved. Cherished. I feel like this is what I have been put on this earth for...to love him. It scares me, though, because I've never felt any kind of love this deeply, never felt this compatible with someone. I am going to take it and run with it though, because to not do so would just be stupid. Meme dealie stolen from Alex:

Location: Osaka, Japan
Contractor: Infinity
Area: 114.56 sqm
Year: 2012
Photographs: Stirling Elmendorf
The styling space is where the owner's particular obsessions and passions came to the fore. He requested that we incorporate various functional elements into the mirrored surfaces (for storing or hanging objects). In response, we wondered if we could create flexible, extensible walls without imposing any limitations on their functionality. In concrete terms, our solution involved building three-dimensional lattice screens resembling parts of a jungle gym that function as architectural pieces of furniture. These screens were created using only a structural framework, with no particular significance attached to the form of the lattice itself. When lighting fixtures, glass panels, hooks and other objects are attached, however, the lattice begins to take on a new dimension. Affixing glass panels turns them into display shelves, or tables for the use of customers. Just imagine the transformations that these lattice screens will undergo, thanks to the multiple efforts and innovations of the staff.
Our heated, passionate discussions with the owner gave us real food for thought. Over the course of many meetings, our plans and designs continued to evolve and change repeatedly. Before long, we found ourselves starting to enjoy the progress of these changes. Thus was born a space that would serve as a base for the owner and his team to communicate their ideas and thoughts to their clients, promising the start of a new phase in its evolution and growth.

2018 Shiraz
Goes well with beef
This doesn't really require any explanation, who doesn't love a nice juicy steak with a beautiful vibrant spicy Shiraz!
Local beef suppliers.
Winemaking notes
This wine was made in small open top fermenters which were hand plunged up to 3 times per day. Following fermentation, the wine was pressed to barrel (20% new) to undergo malolactic fermentation. The wine was matured in these barrels for 12 months prior to bottling.
Tasting notes
This wine is a medium weight, fruit driven style of wine. With only a small oak addition, the true grape flavours are revealed. Blackberry and raspberry flavours dominate this wine, whilst the palate is fleshy and smooth.
