As we all (Or some) may know, the Luxembourgish Royal Family has a very grand tiara collection. As I posted, in March, there are the possible tiaras that Stéphanie could wear to her October Wedding.
Stéphanie, originally born as a Countess to Count Philippe de Lannoy and Alix della Faille de Leverghem (Who, sadly died on August 26, 2012.) She was born on February 18 in 1984, at Ronse, East Flanders, Belgium. She is the youngest of seven sibling and she grew up at the family estate, the Château d'Anvaing. Stéphanie is also going to be one of the only three consorts in waiting of Europe's reigning houses to actually have descended from a noble background, once she gets married. The others? Countess Mathilde d'Udekem d'Acoz (Princess Mathilde, Duchess of Brabant – in Belgium). The other – Duchess Sophie of Bavaria (Sophie, Hereditary Princess of Liechtenstein).
Like, I said a very grand amount of tiaras. There are however, a couple that I think would look great on Stéphanie, I do have to be reminded that she is a Countess. They may have a tiara in their vault, waiting to sit on Stéphanie's head. No matter, I'm still choosing the tiaras!
The Congo Diamond Necklace Tiara is a good pick, it's been a Luxembourgish tradition, for mostly every royal bride to wear the tiara. The Belgian Scroll Tiara, which was the tiara worn by Josephine-Charlotte for her wedding photos. I do really like that piece.
Grand Duchess Marie Adelaide's Tiara, my possibly FAVOURITE tiara of the whole collection, I love the design. Next, the floral tiara, it's a nice piece, and I can see it on Stéphanie's head at her wedding.

Disasters Raising Questions of Insurance Adequacy
February 13, 2017
Bombings! Hurricanes! Earthquakes! Fires!
This podcast and the corresponding Adjusting Today article titled, "Disasters Raising Questions of Insurance Adequacy: Bombings! Hurricanes! Earthquakes! Fires!" are designed to assist policyholders in making educated decisions regarding insurance coverages. Our expert panelists discuss the ever-changing landscape of insurance coverages in the face of disasters, natural and man-made, both common and unusual. This conversation explores risks that property owners may face, that can affect their insurance coverage.
Key Takeaways:
[2:06] Is there a place in the world that is immune to disasters, man-made or natural?
[2:49] Advice for business owners who have just suffered a disaster.
[4:45] Is it true that after a large scale disaster, tenants who did not experience damage to their property may be prevented from re-occupying their property by order of Civil Authority?
View All [10:34] What do business owners need to know about Civil Authority coverage? [13:53] What is the extended period of indemnity and how can business owners use this coverage after a property loss occurs? [19:28] Examples of obtaining materials in a low supply, high demand environment after a disaster. [24:03] Real life examples of common mistakes made by policyholders with regards to disasters. [28:16] How can home and business owners be sure they are evaluating their coverages adequately? [34:10] If a property owner owns more than one property at multiple locations, can all the locations be covered on one policy? [36:33] If a contractor cuts corners and the property is damaged afterward, what are some possible consequences for the insured? [46:26] Does a standard insurance policy cover documents and records lost during a disaster, and what coverages can help mitigate risk? [47:46] Are there unusual examples of man-made disasters that can help others learn from past mistakes? [51:41] The panel's final thoughts on adequate coverages for manmade and natural disasters.

Re: Columbine Training Grounds
I know you're joking but there is, of course, a ring of truth to it. If violence is really the concern, then I'm surprised they would allow any video arcades whatsoever.
This really is a little bizarre. -
Anonymous Coward, 7 Aug 2009 @ 8:16am
Re: Re: Columbine Training Grounds
There is no 'ring of truth' you idiot. Pure sarcasm there. Physical games like football and dodgeball are WAY more violent than video games - people actually get hurt all the time playing games like that but those are perfectly fine. Who gets hurt in the CEC arcade? We do not need the government to regulate what we can and cannot do. -
Net Dad, 6 Aug 2009 @ 9:35pm
Seriously? Have you been to a CEC lately?!
Most of the games are driving games, skiball and air hockey?
I didn't see one "gun" game there... -
Anonymous Coward, 6 Aug 2009 @ 9:40pmJust think what Whack-a-mole teaches kids (hitting with a stick good).. the point and roll an token to knock more off the shelf teaches gambling..

Better the kids should bully the other in the ball pit or the climbing tubes and eat the fattening pizza and pop then do nothing but play those dreadful video games...

Anonymous Coward, 6 Aug 2009 @ 10:08pmIf a little town does not want businesses there then they loose. Silly me, I thought having businesses in your town was a good thing. Jobs, taxes, indirectly bringing in customers to other businesses....Greed is going to make businesses leave and that means the town can only get taxes by raising things like property taxes, school taxes, etc. And for the slow one, yes I mean politicians, that means raising taxes on those who vote for you. Oh yeah, smart move in todays economy.
DS, 7 Aug 2009 @ 4:24am
Look at the comments on the local paper's website. The residents are concerned about the poor people who go to to Chuck-E-Cheese. And by concerned, I mean that the vocal residents don't want 'thoes people' in their neighborhood. -
Anonymous Coward, 7 Aug 2009 @ 2:08amYou need a license to own a gun, right? It stands to reason, you need a license to own a murder death kill simulator.

Re: Murder Death Kill
Excellent "Demolition Man" reference, Mr. Anonymous. -
Sheinen, 7 Aug 2009 @ 2:16amDoes that mean I need to get a liscence for when my friends come over and we play halo? Sometimes they bring people I don't know, so really it's open to the public...
It's similar to my local kebab shop applying for a 5am lisence and being refused, they have to close at 10:30 - who the hell wants a kebab at 10:30?? -
Anonymous Coward, 7 Aug 2009 @ 4:50am

Well, of course, but that's because it's now public performance. Please send your pertinent information to the Entertainment Software Alliance. -

Maybe its the gambling
They also teach the kiddies how to gamble.
Rolling that quarter down the miniature bowling alley to hit the 100 ticket pin is very addicting. -

Chucky's Game selection
If you've every been into a Chuck E Cheese beyond the age of 10, you'll know that disappointingly, they have incredibly high standards against violence in their games. Denying them a "game license" (as if you should need any to display games approved for all ages) seems to only be based on some political agenda.
Be well Anonymous John Spartan. -
Heephaestus, 7 Aug 2009 @ 11:17am
Re: Chucky's Game selection
Actually the guy who wrote the Law up was bitten by a rat as a child.... -
Tek'a R (profile), 7 Aug 2009 @ 6:43amHaving worked in a rather huge arcade (Gameworks. Know it, love it) I can tell you from the inside that many of the things being done regarding the "license" of video games is a pure money grab.
There was no restriction on games, we could have anything we wanted as long as we paid. The city just wanted to come by every month, send a guy to wander around and check the date and placement of the tags on every individual unit.
The GM wasnt supposed to talk about the costs of the license, would only admit under pressure that it was a considerable slice of operating expenses. The whole thing was a continual money grab by the city thanks to some much-amended "Mechanical Gambling (and all other video game) Security and Registration Act.
Short version: They would require a license on Shelves if they could get away with it, to keep bringing in the fines. -
Ryan, 7 Aug 2009 @ 8:12am
Virtually all licenses are a blatant money grab. If something really needs to be certified, there's plenty of private options that can do it fairly and cheaply. Many operating licenses cut sharply into business revenue solely in order to prop up more government; they are also among the most abusive ways to choose winners by granting them to the politically connected. It's a joke... -
Anonymous Coward, 7 Aug 2009 @ 6:48amthe problem is not the video games, or them being violent...and how do you place "parental control" into effect, when the problem are the parents. the reason for the licence rejection, is the constant police presence at the location, because parents are getting into fights, getting drunk, and a slew of other things. this licence rejection has nothing to do with kids, or video games, but the poor behavior of their parents. and this being a mid-high $ community, they dont want to see these type of things going on and ruining their community, so the are basically telling the business to go somewhere else by rejecting their gaming licence.
Anonymous Coward, 7 Aug 2009 @ 9:26am
I guess you're referring to things like this article about the issues at the various Chuck E. Cheeses. I never knew that they actually serve alcohol at these places. Does this location serve alcohol?
Although, if fights is the concern, the city can control this though the permit/license to serve alcohol.
Note that this about rejecting the renewal of the video game license at a location that already has the games. Also the concilwoman with the "action-packed shoot-and-kill games" quote tired to change her no vote after seeing that it didn't pass.
Just Another Moron in a Hurry, 7 Aug 2009 @ 7:16am
Speaking from experience
So, I actually live like 3 miles away from this Chuck E Cheeses.
It is so weird to see a place you drive by everyday getting national media attention.
Here is the local story, for anyone interested:

Just Another Moron in a Hurry, 7 Aug 2009 @ 7:22am
Re: Speaking from experience
It seems to me like the video games is just a symptom of another problem, and it was an easy way for the town council to show some measure of authority, and try to get this CEC to clean up their act. -
Jrosen (profile), 7 Aug 2009 @ 9:36am
I'd love to have an actual freaking arcade somewhere near me. I THINK there's a chuck e cheese somewhere within about 20 miles. There's a Dave & Buster's nearby-ish. But I can recall where I could bike 10 minutes to Fun and Games or any number of other arcades which had an office-building floor worth of games and space. Not a restaurant/bar/dance-floor/gods knows whatever else.
Yes, I'm sure that all the console games have pulled people (mainly kids likely) from the actual arcades. But it's morons like this town that have hurt places as well (we don't want kids/certain/those people hanging out here) and all that bs. -
known coward, 7 Aug 2009 @ 11:14am
have you ever been to a chuck E cheese
I have and believe me it is not for the squeamish. Screaming kids, crying parents, the stupid mouse, the lousy food. Of course they sell beer and wine, handing out Demerol to the masses which while necessary for survival, is still illegal.
Brothel, opium den, sure bring them to the neighborhood. Chuckie cheese I say "NO" -
joe, 7 Aug 2009 @ 11:31amBack in the day when I worked in a movie theatre, we had pinball machines, centipede, ms pac man, etc. Each machine had a city tax stamp on it.
Why? I surmise it was to know who has these games, and to ensure they are games and not gambling or 'gaming' machines. And sure, to make some coin for the city.

After the amazing weekend I thought things would settle back down to our usual routine. She was out working all day so I had to wait until the next weekend to go shopping with Wendy for my new wardrobe. In the meantime she allowed me to wear any of her clothes that I liked but most were a bit too big for me and Wendy had only a few dresses and skirts to choose from. She told me I was no longer allowed in trousers or slacks, at least for the time being. On the Monday when she got home she found me with my legs nicely shaved wearing a flesh coloured pair of tights, a pink bra and pantie set and a dress in pastel shades with a small intertwined flowers or reddish coloured leaves, I wasn't sure which, but I thought the outfit suited me. I was quite self conscious and confessed to Wendy that I had not gone to the door when the postman arrived with a parcel. He knew me as a man, so I thought he would laugh at me. He'd pushed a card through saying pick it up from the Post Office.
"Simon, I wanted that parcel. You silly little sissy. I've had a really stressful day and now this." She sat down on one of the kitchen chairs and beckoned me over. "You've been a naughty girlie haven't you? Lie across my lap for your punishment."
Wendy had promised to spank me and it was something I had fantasised about. Her mother's smacks had hurt me but for some reason I wanted it again, the earlier spanking had aroused me and made me feel better afterwards.
"Yes, darling, spank my botty, I've been a naughty girl. Shall I slip off my tights and panties?"
"You shouldn't need to ask silly. Get them off at once. And another thing, I don't want my wife wearing tights in future. Is that clear?
"Yes ma'am." I said blushing. I hurriedly pulled them down and off my feet and placed myself across her knees.
"I want you to count and thank me after each slap. You're looking forward to this aren't you?" She was looking at my growing erection.
I blushed again and nodded. She gave me twenty hard slaps with the flat of her hand ensuring that all my bottom was smarting by the time she had finished. Not as bad as the paddle but still painful.
"How many more can you take?" Wendy asked grinning. My cock was hardening as she paused after softening a little with the onslaught.
"Please can I have another ten? I promise to be a good sissy from now on."
"OK. Ten it is then. I've got a job for you when I've finished the spanking. My, isn't your bottom red? I didn't realise how sexy this is dear. My panties are absolutely soaking."
As she laid into me, even harder than before, she casually remarked that I would be needing a new name. "How does sissy Susan sound?" she said, laughing. "Come on now, speak up."
"Twenty-nine, thank you ma'am. Yes, I am a silly sissy Susan aren't I? Ouch. Thirty, thank you ma'am."
Wendy pointed to the floor then, stripping off her trousers and panties as she moved over to her usual position on the settee, she switched on the TV to watch a quiz show whilst I licked and sucked at her wonderful vulva. The programme distracted her a little, she wanted a good long session tonight and the distraction helped to make it last. Her first orgasm was not enough to satisfy her and I enjoyed a good thirty minutes pleasuring her on my knees before she requested that I go to the kitchen to finish off dinner.
Wendy was always friendly and courteous but we both knew that she made all the decisions. Somehow I craved it, I was turned on by doing her bidding. I was her slave and the spanking only served to confirm what we both knew. I was there to make her happy. My needs were secondary and not really important. So far she had been a benevolent dictator. Perhaps dicktator was nearer the mark. I had given a lot of thought to my strap on experience at the weekend realising I had not seen the last of that kind of thing. I also thought about the lesbian affairs she had had. If her plan was to have my balls cut off that was one particular step I was not prepared to take. No, making me dress as a woman was Wendy's way of making me obedient and subservient, as women were to men years ago. I was sure it would never go as far as surgery. I wasn't gay but I had discovered that I did enjoy feminine things, wearing women's clothes made my cock hard. There was something wierdly sexy about this world I had entered and I didn't want it all to change back to my previously lonely life without a partner.
That night as we lay close together in bed, me in my new long silky nightie, Wendy confided about her lesbian flings. "I'm not an out and out lesbian you know. I think I really prefer men. I've got a strong lust for life; that means I look for new experiences. Can you live with that darling?"
"You are the one who wears the trousers darling. And I like it that way. My willy is hard with me thinking of you shagging other women, will you let me put it in your pussy just this once, please?"
"Sorry Susan I doubt if I could feel your little willy after the pounding I've had from bigger cocks over the years. Why don't you wank off in front of me? I'll tell you something about my sexy past whilst you pull away on your little prick."
"Well you know how hot it can get in hospitals? And how the doctors wear white coats? One really hot summer's day I was on my way out in a lift travelling down to the ground floor with one of the doctors. I'd been to visit a friend who'd had a baby. I was wearing a thin summer dress without any bra or panties to keep cool. The doctor must have noticed my nipples and that there were no bra straps and his sharp eyes had caught a glimpse of my hairy fanny reflected in the polished floor. I saw him looking lustfully at me and my smile was so inviting that he bent and kissed me on the lips. I returned the kiss as he was fumbling with the buttons of his doctor's coat revealing that he just had on a pair of thin boxer shorts underneath. He somehow managed to stop the lift between floors as I was pulling his shorts down. His cock was huge- sorry darling. Oh, you've spurted into your hand. Lick it all up, there's a good sissy. We fucked standing up and both came at about the same time. We never saw each other again. I'm such a slut aren't I darling?"
She pushed my head down towards her pussy and I was happy to oblige, more than satisfied that I had just jerked off as she watched. That was infinitely better than masturbating alone.
Wendy said I had to go for a walk out of the house dressed as a woman so I went for a stroll around the local park whilst she was at work. It was cold so I muffled myself up in one of Wendy's coats and wore a headscarf. Nobody seemed to notice me as being out of the ordinary so it gave me confidence.
A few nights later Wendy explained that she had had a long chat with her mother who had reminded her that she had fucked me with the strap on.
"How would you like another fucking darling? I'm warning you that once I've fucked you, I may want to do it every night."
"I was hoping that you would suggest it. If I'm to be a good sissy it's something I should be getting used to. But please be gentle and use your smallest strap on."
"OK. But I can't promise to always take it slowly once your pussy becomes stretched. I know; I'll get you a butt plug to wear every day until your bum hole is more accommodating. You want to have a pussy that is available for my use at all times don't you."
"Yes dear. Please fuck me with your strap on."
We drank a bottle of wine between us whilst I gave myself an enema to wash out my back passage and then it was upstairs to bed to do the dirty deed.
I knelt on the bed naked with pillows on my chest. Wendy took her time whispering endearments, kissing my neck and nuzzling my ears as she kneeled behind me and began to insert the strap on. The position I was in felt a bit humiliating this time. I had to remind myself of my status. No longer the fucker. I was now the "fuckee". But again my cock was hard as if I was revelling in my new position, in more than one sense of this word. As the rubber cock began to work its way past my sphincter I suddenly lost my erection but as last weekend once Wendy began to get into a rhythm my willy rose again. Wendy was kind enough to reach around as she fucked. She stroked my little cock in time with her thrusts. She was breathing heavily, grunting and letting out little squeals of enjoyment.
"Fuck, Fuck, Fuck. I hope you're loving this as much as I am darling." She said. "Take this and this and this." She shouted, in time with her thrusts. "You're my little sissy aren't you darling."
I could only nod my head appreciatively. Wendy was the first to come but again she was kind and continued until I spurted. I had been holding a plastic cup as we fucked (Wendy's idea) and managed to collect all the sperm. She smiled approvingly as I drank it down.
"That reminds me darling, I've got a date on Saturday night. It's somebody high up at the firm I work for. I'll let you help me get all dolled up for him. You did say you fantasised about me seeing other men didn't you? So I thought you wouldn't mind."
I hadn't really come out and said so but it was true I had jerked off thinking about Wendy with another man. My feelings were mixed as I was afraid I might lose her.
"And if he fucks me I'll let you eat his semen out of my cunt. You like the taste of come don't you?"
What could I say? This was my new life; plenty of excitement and unexpected events. As I humbly nodded my head I blushed with embarrassment and humiliation. I noticed that my penis had responded despite my recent orgasm. Did she want me to meet her boyfriends and, if so, what would they say to me? Would she have more lesbian affairs? What was going to happen next?

progress on sweater and backing up info
this lightweight self striping yarn that i've made into a vneck sweater is not finished yet. kept putting it off for the orders that came in and items to knit for laura-still no yarn.
notice how front match exactly. that took a bit of trial and error with the 2nd skein of yarn.
and here are the sleeves.well the stitches came off the needle but those will be easy to pick up. i don't write down patterns but i'll be able to figure it out as i go along. these are to be just covering the elbows.
this is my latest project that's taken a lot of time. i firuged if we had a fire i would not have time to grab all the pictures and albums in the house so i want them in this portable hard drive, that i can put into our fire proof safe. i've been putting all our pictures from cd and dvds on it, patterns, databases, cookbooks i made for nana and just all kinds of text files. ieven have dvd's of trips we took out west. then i can get rid of the vcr tapes and cd's, etc that's just lying around cluttereing the house. also i can scan in the kids old photo albums and put them onto this hard drive. it's so small it does fit in the palm of my hand. if i need another 500gid hd i can get em for $100 each now.

2013 NFL Draft Position Rankings – Running Backs
Posted: April 30, 2012 | Author: steelersrule125 | Filed under: 2013 NFL Draft | Tags: 2012 NFL Draft, 2013 NFL Draft, Andre Ellington, Christine Michael, Cierre Wood, Giovani Bernard, Jonathan Franklin, Kenjon Barner, Knile Davis, Marcus Lattimore, Montee Ball, Ray Graham | 1 CommentThe 2012 Draft is over and it is time to move onto the 2013 draft. I already rated the top 32 prospects and ranked the 2013 QB prospects and now I will move onto the running backs. Next year's class of RBs appears to be loaded with talent as well as injury concerns. Two of the top three RBs in the class are coming off major leg injuries.
The top back in the class is clearly Marcus Lattimore. Lattimore had an incredible freshman year in 2010 and was on his way to another great year in 2011 before a ACL surgery ended his season. If he can regain his form, he could be a top five pick in the draft. After that there are three solid mid first to early second round prospects. The first is the ultra productive Montee Ball. He does not have great speed but he is good at everything else. Then there is Knile Davis who has elite speed and great vision. He could end up being a top 15 pick if he regains his form. Finally, there is Michael Dyer who was kicked of Auburn and is now at Arkansas State. He has great talent but will need to prove that he is a more mature man to become a first round pick. After that, there are seven other backs that I see as possible Day 2 or Day 3 picks at this point. See the rankings after the jump.

I've been into photography since 2007. Photography is for me a hobby, but a very serious one, I spent all my spare time into it! I tryed out most things as model portret and nature as wide as you can think off. But my intrest is now 100% nature related and specialty in birds and macro work. Some of my work has been published into several magazins or books over the past 5 years.
Nature photography is an addiction. you need to know what you are photographing, and you must be one step ahead and thnk as the bird or animal. Sometimes you are weeks busy to make that one shot, another time you have it in 5 minits.
All what counts for me is being in nature all the time and enjoy all what nature is giving us.
Since 2011 I am giving workshops too. White-tailed eagle, Macr and bushbirds workshops.
I also place photo's at my own website and you will see different photo's there too at http://www.waltersoestbergen.nl

Set on a Southern army base in the 1930s, Reflections in a Golden Eye tells the story of Captain Penderton, a bisexual whose life is upset by the arrival of Major Langdon, a charming womanizer who has an affair with Penderton's tempestuous and flirtatious wife, Leonora. Upon the novel's publication in 1941, reviewers were unsure of what to make of its relatively scandalous subject matter. But a critic for Time Magazine wrote, "In almost any hands, such material would yield a rank fruitcake of mere arty melodrama. But Carson McCullers tells her tale with simplicity, insight, and a rare gift of phrase." Written during a time when McCullers's own marriage to Reeves was on the brink of collapse, her second novel deals with her trademark themes of alienation and unfulfilled loves.
"The greatest prose writer that the South produced" (Tennessee Williams)
"Again [McCullers] shows a sort of subterranean and ageless instinct for probing the hidden in men's hearts and minds." (The New York Herald-Tribune)
"The novel is a masterpiece . . . as mature and finished as Henry James's The Turn of the Screw." (Time Magazine)

- Douglas "College English professor who loves classic literature, psychology, neurology and hates pop trash like Twilight and Fifty Shades of Grey."
One of my new favorites
Who killed whom?
Not a single character in this book is likable in any way. They are all petty and self centered. If I had to pick one least unlikable character I guess it would be the Major's wife and Anakleto.
The way the captain is both deeply frightened and completely exhilarated by the wild horse ride, and the way he later reacts to that exhilaration.
That never happens to me. I usually listen as I walk or ride bike.
This is an excellent book structurally. I won't reveal what I think to be the beauty of what this writer does in the construction of this plot, but it worked fantastically I thought. Hint: the first paragraph (so I'm not giving anything away) says that a murder happened that involved six characters, one of which is a horse.

Yet according to Andrew Potter, when examined closely, our fetish for "authentic" lifestyles or experiences—organic produce and ecotourism, bikram yoga and performance art, the cult of Oprah and the obsession with Obama—is actually a form of exclusionary status seeking. The result, he argues, is modernity's malaise: a competitive, self-absorbed individualism that creates a shallow consumerist society built on stratification and one-upmanship that ultimately erodes genuine relationships and true community.
Weaving together threads of pop culture, history, and philosophy, The Authenticity Hoax reveals how our misguided pursuit of the authentic exacerbates the artificiality of contemporary life that we decry. Potter traces the origins of the authenticity ideal from its roots in the eighteenth century through its adoption by the 1960s counterculture to its centrality in twenty-first-century moral life. He shows how this ideal is manifested through our culture, from the political fates of Sarah Palin and John Edwards to Damien Hirst and his role in contemporary art, from the phenomenon of retirement as a second adolescence to the indignation over James Frey's memoir. From this defiant, brilliant critique, Potter offers a way forward to a meaningful individualism that makes peace with the modern world.

WWII Patch, USN, VPB-44 VP-44 #2
Product Information WWII US Navy Squadron Patch #2 USN VP-44 USN VPB-44 Navy Patrol Squadron 44 Navy Patrol Bomber Squadron 44 Black Cats Walt Disney Design? 4.75 inches VP-44 ---> VPB-44 VP = Patrol Squadron VPB = Patrol Bomber Squadron Nickname: Black Cats, 1942 – 1945 Operated: June 1941 - June 1945 Theater: West and South Pacific Lineage Established as Navy Patrol Squadron 44 (VP-44) on 3 June 1941. Redesignated Navy Patrol Bombing Squadron 44 (VPB-44) on 1 October 1944. Disestablished on 20 June 1945. Squadron Insignia VP-44 was one of the later Black Cat squadrons in WWII. The nickname came from the black paint scheme applied to the Catalinas for night operations. The Black Cat in the squadron's insignia depicted its stealth in the dark as well as surprise and viciousness in its attack. The outline of the yellow moon emphasized the night operations, suggesting that cats operate best when the moon is full. Colors = yellow moon; black & white cat; black background. The first squadron designated VP-44 was born on 1 July 1939, when Patrol Squadron 20 was redesignated 44 under the operational control of Fleet Air Wing Four. The squadron operated from Sitka, Alaska, with PBY Catalinas, twin-engine patrol seaplanes. Its designation was short term for in November 1940 it was redesignated VP-61. Just before World War II, a second VP-44 was born and assigned the newer PBY-5 aircraft. The operational command was then Fleet Air Wing One. It retained its designation until October 1944 when it became VPB 44. Extensive operations with continuing engagements with the Japanese forces brought the Black Cat Operations world wide recognition and appreciation by our military leaders. Not only did the planes and crews of 44 fly patrols, but also aggressively sought out, identified, and attacked both surface and submersibles. Many crews distinguished themselves in air-to-air combat. Following its two highly successful 15 month deployments in the Pacific, the squadron returned to San Diego where it was "temporarily decommissioned." The war ended, and the squadron was not recommissioned. During WWII, it was a VP-44 plane piloted by Ensign Jewell Harmon that sent a report of the sighting of the "Main Body" of the Japanese fleet as it headed toward Midway. Frequently identified as the "single most important patrol plane contribution," that action helped to shift the tide in U.S operations in the Pacific. And during its proud history, the squadron was recognized for many Meritorious Unit Citations and special recognition from the Fleet Air Wings to which the unit was assigned. PATRON FORTY-FOUR CHRONOLOGY, LINEAGE AND EVOLUTION The first VP-44 evolved from VP-20, which was commissioned prior to 1939. Redesignated Patrol Squadron FORTY FOUR (VP-44) 1 July 1939. Redesignated VP 61 in November 1940; subsequently redesignated VP-82, VB 125, and finally VPB-125. Decommissioned on 8 June 1945. The second VP-44 of record, Patrol Bombing Squadron 44 was commissioned 3 June 1941 (originally designated VP-44, but changed to VPB 44 in October1943) - "temporarily decommissioned" 8 May 1945. Established as Patrol Squadron TWO HUNDRED FOUR (VP-204) on 15 October 1942. Redesignated Patrol Bombing Squadron TWO HUNDRED FOUR (VPB 204) on 1 October 1944. Redesignated Patrol Squadron TWO HUNDRED FOUR (VP 204) on 15 May 1946. Redesignated Medium Patrol Squadron (Seaplane) FOUR (VP-MS-4) on 15 November 1946.

Jul 1943 NAS Kaneohe, Hawaii 18 Jan 1944 NAS San Diego, Calif. 1 May 1945 VP-44 was ordered to Midway for extended operations. It arrived at Eastern Island on the 22nd and 23rd of May. Operations before the 30th May were routine and entirely similar to those of the pre-ceding weeks out of Pearl Harbor. On May 1st and June 1st contacts and aerial engagements were experienced with fast, maneuverable patrol bomber-landplanes which presumably were operating out of Wake. When Ensign Jewell (Jack) Harmon Reid sent a contact report, "Main Body" to Midway Island on the 3rd June, 1942, he had just made the most important patrol plane sighting of World War II. By this action he furnished the first positive information that a Japanese task force of imposing proportions was headed for Midway. Ensign Reid did a workman-like job. He remained in close proximity to the enemy force for two and one-half hours, sending amplifying reports until he was ordered back to base. On the evening of the same day, at 2145 Midway time, four PBY-5A's, under command of Lieut. Richards of this squadron. took off and headed for the enemy fleet to deliver a memorable night torpedo attack. Two of the planes, flying through clouds, lost contact with the leader – one of them, however, subsequently found a target. The other planes, with radar on homing, intercepted a force of fifteen transports and destroyers. They delivered their attack down moon, throttles chopped, in a straight silent glide. That the attack was a complete surprise is evident from the fact that the ships did not open fire until after Lieut. Richards, who was leading, had completed his torpedo run. Men in the waist of this first plane saw a tremendous explosion "as if the whole ship had blown up." The hours flown incident to the Battle of Midway made heavy demands upon the mental and physical resources of the VP-44 flight crews. For the period 27 May to 5 June – a total of ten days – these twelve crews averaged 88.5 hours each of combat flying. Four of the crews flew more that 100 hours each during this period, one, the amazing total of 114 hours. Rescue, for which no other plane is as celebrated as the Catalina, was a necessary adjunct to the patrol work. On 5 June 1942, LTJG Shelby Olaf Cole, USNR, made a noteworthy rescue when he landed at sea and picked us Ensign George H. Gay, USNR, the lone survivor of Torpedo Squadron Eight. Ensign Gay had been adrift in a rubber life raft for a day. He was later able to furnish the Commander-in-Chief, Pacific Fleet, with timely and important information. On 6 June 1942, Ensign Richard Vern Umphrey, USN (T),landed a heavily loaded plane in a rough sea, and rescued the personnel of a disabled PBY who had been afloat for three days. On two occasions during this flight Ensign Umphrey was jumped by enemy aircraft. In both instances he handled his plane so as to avoid personnel injury. The second attacking plane broke off the engagement when it dove away trailing white smoke, the result of direct hits upon it by .50 and .30 caliber machine gun fire. 15 Jun 1944: VP-44 moved to Green Island, halfway between Bougainville and Rabaul, only 150 miles from the enemy stronghold. A PATSU was available for maintenance of squadron aircraft and the berthing and feeding of unit personnel. Patrol missions involved flying daily search sectors extending in a northerly direction to within 200 miles of Truk. ASW operations were discontinued. Patrol missions ceased after 18 August when the primary mission of the squadron was changed to keeping 17 nearby enemy airfields neutralized and to prevent shipping at night from getting to the bypassed Japanese garrisons. Nightly Black Cat raids were conducted and the squadron maintained standby aircraft for ASW and Dumbo missions during the day. Nightly hunts were usually coordinated with one of the PT boat squadrons stationed on Green Island. The Cats would spot the target at night with their radar, then illuminate the scene for the PT boats. Both would then join in on the kill. Attacks were usually made with 4 500-pound ANM-64 bombs and 40 20-pound fragmentation bombs. On one nighttime mission over Rabaul, an enemy floatplane fighter attacked Lieutenant Lloyd Garrison and his crew. In the ensuing combat they managed to shoot down the fighter. Upon return, the jubilant crew was informed that confirmation was needed before credit could be authorized. Undaunted, the crew returned early the next morning and took pictures in broad daylight of the smoking wreckage still floating in the bay at Rabaul. They were duly given credit for the deed. 4 Sep–Dec 1944: VP-44 operational control was changed from FAW-1 to FAW-2. By this stage of the war, Japanese resistance had been broken and Rabaul neutralized. It was the squadron's job to see that 17 enemy airfields were regularly bombed to prevent their use and to intercept resupply ships and barges attempting to reinforce Japanese troops on Bougainville and New Ireland. A detachment of three aircraft was maintained for a few months at Torokina airstrip on Bougainville for Dumbo work with Marine air units. This group was nearly overrun during a Banzai attack by the last remaining Japanese troops on Bougainville in December 1944. 1 Dec 1944: VPB-44 operational control was shifted from FAW-2 to Commander Air Seventh Fleet (ComAir7thFlt). Six squadron aircraft were utilized for passenger and mail runs between Hollandia, New Guinea and Leyte, Philippines. The squadron also conducted resupply for the Australian coastwatchers, flying to such remote islands as Pinipel, Feni, Nuguria, Lehir and Ontong Java.

PermalinkI look forward to the DET-NO match up. Good D vs Good O, and lesser O vs lesser D. Which pattern will not hold?
Guest - ErikKramerForever
PermalinkIf you're surprised how good the Lions' pass D is, consider how surprised Lions fans are. As bad as Darius Slay was last year, and as old as Rashean Mathis is, I expected the pass defense to be bad. When James Ighedibo missed time, then the first two nickel corners, got inured, I exped them to be historically bad.
You're the first author that I've read to rightly point out that it defies logic that this team has the best pass defense in the league by a significant margin. Sure, you can argue they've played a soft schedule of offenses, but you only need to look at what they did to Aaron Rodgers to know that they're for real.
Teryl Austin just might be a wizard. -

PermalinkHow is it that the team scoring the 7th most points, has an offense ranked 18th? And while giving up the 16th most points, has a defense ranked 5th? You would think that the Packers strength would be their offense and their weakness would be their defense, but this metric is arguing otherwise. It seems counter intuitive to me, especially having watched all of their games this season.

PermalinkOne of the reasons I read this blog is for the value of getting something that breaks from the CW pack. But if you are going to rank a team like the Dolphins fourth, when other power rankings have them down around 22 or 23, seems like you ought to have some discussion about why they are so high in this model.
Guest - SlackerInc
PermalinkI'm glad that by contrast, you do explain the 5-1 Eagles being 24th. However, I'm disappointed that a "quant" blog neglects to consider special teams in its formula. I have long been of the opinion that kicking/punting/returning/covering is vastly underrated in its importance to NFL teams' strength, and is overlooked mostly because it's not seen as being as "sexy".
A system that dispenses with such concerns and looks at teams strictly by the numbers could compensate for this tendency...if it actually looked at special teams numbers (which seem to me like they'd be easy enough to quantify). -
Guest - Mitch
PermalinkWow, looky there, San Fran sitting at 5th, how's that possible ? From 19th to 5th in 2 weeks, who'd a thunk it ?
Colts at 15th ? Good one, they'll be moving up but not this week only because they play Cin. Wash at 12th, OK, better than the Colts ? Miami still in the top 5 ? -
Guest - Mitch
PermalinkEagles are not all that good. They're better the the credit they get here, but not a top 10 team in this league. Maybe 13th to 15th.
Every season has a team that wins with smoke & mirrors, and this season it's the Eagles. Identifying these type teams is one advantage to a math method like here.

Caching in the sunshine
Who needs to lie on the beach this summer, when there's geocaching to be done beside the roads and on the bridges of our largest city? Here's Paul Janman giving my oldest lad a lecture about the occult science known as GPS, during a recent geocaching mission down Auckland's Great South Road. Paul and I were replenishing the treasure boxes we stashed along the road as part of last year's A Sense of Place exhibition.
As well as filling ice cream containers with goodies and hiding them under convenient bricks and bridges, Paul showed Aneirin how to locate other people's geocaches. Under his avuncular gaze, Aneirin pulled a small box from a hollow tree on Pukekawa, the green and pleasant volcano in Auckland's Domain. The box contained a tiny replica of Mercury; its distance from Auckland's central business district was supposed to simulate the distance of that planet from the sun.
At Mutukaroa, the vast traffic island just north of Otahuhu, Paul and Echo's kids Cosmo and Linton helped stash a cache; you can find coordinates for the treasure, and the comments of a few treasurehunters, on this page.
Further down the Great South Road, Paul and I stopped to check on the geocache we left at Southdown Park, a rat-ridden maze of overgrown shrubs that sits between half-demolished slaughterhouses and the mud of the upper Manukau harbour. The park's entrances had been sealed, after asbestos was detected amidst its greenery. The ruins of the future have turned toxic. We've had to abandon our Southdown box, but the cache that we left on Mangere Bridge as part of the recent Other Waters festival seems to be doing good business.

The Crested Hawk-eagle or Changeable Hawk-eagle, is a bird of prey of the family Accipitridae. They were formerly placed in the genus Spizaetus but studies pointed to the group being paraphyletic resulting in the Old World members being placed in Nisaetus (Hodgson, 1836) and separated from the New World species.
The Changeable Hawk Eagle is found found in found from the Himalayan foothills down through Southeast Asia into Greater Sundas to Philippines. This subspecies is polymorphic, with a dark and a pale morph.
The Crested hawk-eagle is a medium-large raptor at about 60–77 cm in length. It is a relatively slender forest eagle with some subspecies (especially limnaetus) being dimorphic giving the name of "Changeable".
This, and also a complicated phylogeny further complicates precise identification.
Normally brown above; white below with barring on the undersides of the flight feathers and tail; black longitudinal streaks on throat and chocolate streaks on breast. 'Some subspecies have a crest of four feathers, but this is all but absent in others' Sexes alike; female larger, and young birds are often whiter-headed and less patterned.
The wings are long and parallel-sided, and are held flat in flight, which helps to distinguish this species from the similar Mountain Hawk Eagle. In overhead flight, comparatively rounded wings (upturned at tip), longish tail, white body (spotted with brown) and grey underside of wings (streaked and spotted) are leading pointers.
Call: A loud, high-pitched ki-ki-ki-ki-ki-ki-ki-ki-kee, beginning short, rising in crescendo and ending in a scream.
The sexes are similar but the female is slightly larger. The juvenile (pale morph) is distinct, with its head and underparts largely white (left). Juveniles begin to breed in the third year and become fully adult in fourth year or later. The adult pale morph is brown above, with pale edges, especially on wing coverts. The pale brown tail has a thin whitish tip, broad blackish subterminal band and three to four other narrower, browner and often much more obscure bars. The white to buff area of the throat to breast and upper belly and flanks are more or less boldly streaked with black to dark brown.
The adult dark morph is entirely blackish-brown, including the uppertail, the inner half being greyer.
The wings are shortish, with the wing tips about one-third to half down tail; tail long and thinly-banded. Legs are long, feathered; appearing spindly because of the short tibial feathering.
The bird perches upright, especially in the early morning and afternoon. It stays for long periods waiting patiently for prey. These may include squirrels, birds, snakes and lizards.
Thanks Wazza and I'm really sorry to hear about your mum passing away.
Great detail…..beautiful work!

NEW YORK — Anthony Weiner said he is "one hundred percent not" having any type of online relationship right now and insisted again that his days of sexting are well behind him.
The Democratic mayoral hopeful told NBC New York that he has not sent lewd messages or pictures to women he met online for about a year and said he wants to move on and talk about other subjects.
"I just think at a certain point, OK, I think people know these embarrassing things about me," Weiner said. "I think at a certain point now we have to have a conversation that goes to, alright, what else should people know?"
The interview was Weiner's latest as he struggles to regain momentum in his bid succeed Mayor Michael Bloomberg, ahead of the Sept. 10 primary. The former lawmaker's poll numbers have plummeted in recent days after admitting that he continued to send sexual messages to at least three women he met online after a sexting scandal forced him out of Congress in 2011.
Weiner said Friday he had kept no records of the messages he sent women, telling NBC New York that he "deleted everything." And he said he had felt guilty while engaging in those relationships.
"I didn't like when I was doing it, it was wrong to do, it was wrong to my wife, wrong period," Weiner said, referring to his wife, longtime Hillary Clinton adviser Huma Abedin.
Yet, as he has in recent weeks, Weiner acknowledged that other women could come forward with lurid details of online exchanges — though he said he hoped that wouldn't happen.
"I certainly don't like talking about this stuff," Weiner told NBC.
The ex-lawmaker dismissed reports that Clinton, the former secretary of state and likely 2016 Democratic presidential contender, is angry with him. He said he had not spoken to any of the Clintons recently.
"I have no reason to believe she's annoyed," Weiner said.

Special Interest Group in Computer Games: a pilot project for In-depth- Learning and training Professor LIU Zhi-Qiang Mr. Morgan Aasdam, PhD candidate Media Computing Group (MCG), School of Creative Media TDG Sharing on December 15, 2009
Aims of the Project To establish a Computer Games Project Group for students of BScCM in the School of Creative Media. In this group the students will participate in supervised extracurricular, professional research and development activities. Through this project the students will gain first- hand experience in developing media sharing products.
Enhancement of Teaching and Learning The general Idea: In order for students to effectively learn the subjects and become successful professionals they should be given opportunities to learn and practice in addition to rigorous and disciplined curricula for a degree and the usual internship practice. To achieve this it requires motivation and passion from the learner.
Learning Outcomes Deeper understanding of the game development process Difficulties in developing a computer game The importance of doing proper research for design The importance of good project management The importance of communication and team work How they should prepare themselves for the game industry
What has been achieved Ninja Fighter - a 2D arcade style fighting game Fight with Tele-Viv - an interactive motion tracking game Draw Attention - interactive drawing system that uses game as a way to teach basic drawing. Received excellent response for the public and the university.
Project Title: Ninja Fighter
Project Title: Fight with Tele-Viv Prof. Richard Ho was obviously jolly taking off.
Project Title: Draw Attention The President was playing with a full attention The CEO of Cyberport, now, EVP of PolyU, Mr. Nick Yang was full engaged.

Come drool with me - love this house

Ohhelp the 'normal' parts are actually quite nice but the rest WOW!!! lol
[gets spoon; stirs]
I spent one of the worst days of my life in Dundee.
Still, you get a lot of bricks for your dosh up there [looks round at the four walls of her extremely humble and unbeautiful abode that cost a kings feckin ransom because it is in SW London]
Oh my life, noeyedeer, there truly are no words. I think that may be the most jaw-dropping house we have ever had on here.
I love how you get to picture 16 and it looks like a monk's cell, till you realise that is only in comparison to the dazzling vistas that have gone before.
oh my god. That is jaw droppingly awful.
I know what you mean about pic 16.
Holy moly. It's like if Katie Price and Michael Jackson had decorated a house together.
Devora, come and join our apparently newly-formed Dundee MN commune - we'll replace your terrible day with fond memories
Haha that is gobsmacking! How on earth will they ever fight off the hoards of buyers? Haha
I like picture 7 on this one
Ah, what a kind offer, julesjam. Will we eat, like, Dundee cake and all?
I got to picture 5, NoMore, and thought, "Well, how can it get worse?"
And then it did
That house makes me lose the will to live. I actually don't see how you could live there without compromising your mental health. Where on earth do you buy gold shower curtains, anyway?
From here of course...I thought everyone knew that...
I was thinking I liked this one and then it showed indoors and it all went horribly wrong
have had to namechange just to say that we live just down the road from OhHelp's jaw dropping house.
I think I have linked to it before on MN but it always warrants a look. DP and I have always wondered where the hell you go to buy that sort of stuff. We also like to imagine the poor estate agents face when he turned up to value and photograph it
When I first saw it from the outside it looks as if it might have a resident ghost. But I love the staircase.
EA really is a bit keener on the external shots there, NoMore
Wow! That Belper house!
Its so bad its almost good, Id love to know who lives there.
Gok can go and knock tomorrow and report back I imagine its someone who looks like this though
How could you not go? Make sure you report back.
That one makes me think that the other rooms are horrible cause why else would he take dozens of external views but just living room, kitchen and bedroom?
What I want to know is why there are 5 pictures of a statue doing a handstand? I want to book a viewing...sadly I don't have a spare few million to do the place up
Gok what are the owners like ? I really want to know... do they look.... normal ?!
I'm still a bit freaked out by that silver sparkly figure on the black and white cow sofa !

ORANGEBURG, S.C. (AP) - Orangeburg County authorities say a Eutawville man has been found drowned in Lake Marion.
The man had been at the lake with friends.
Deputy Coroner Sean Fogle says the victim was 60-year-old Leroy Adair Dantzler.
The friends said Dantzler stepped outside late Sunday night and did not return.
His body was found on the shore of Lake Marion about 200 feet from the pier he had been fishing earlier.

A day.
I know I am neglecting this blog....OK, sorry na.
I am so, so busy. You know, I didn't even proof read my last post and published it like there is no tomorrow. How embarrassing ! I have done it now.
Last night, I slept at 3:30 am.
Ok, you do the justice, is this my fault Star world re-telecasts 4 or 5 episodes of breaking bad, in one run around 11:30 pm, and when they run it at its original time, I can't watch it due to no electricity ?
And this is only show I am watching these days.
And you know what, when I was watching t.v, and my sis was sleeping on the couch. She asked me to turned off t.v some 10x, and I ignored it. Then she throw slipper at me, It didn't hit me. I am quite trained, you know. Anyway, I was already so burned out, so I turned off it off.
So I was saying I turned in around 3:30 pm, but finally slept at 5, got up 6:45, again and left home without make up. Can you imagine that ? Just had a cup of tea. Already already nothing was making no sense to me, Miss asked me to do computer lab's board.
Of course I did. They pay me.
I stayed late to finished it once and for all. It was hanging on my head since the start of the august.
Now I gotta go to my friend's cousin's mehindi's ceremony.
God, I definitely don't want to go. No, I ain't tried anymore, I had a nap in afternoon, just that it is exact 8:00pm right now, and ceremony will not be started till 10:30. They all are at home. She is saying I come early to do her makeup. No way. She lives at airport side, and my bro ain't at home to take me there.
I'll go directly to hall, and wing it, if needed.
I have no mood to do any one's makeup.
14 comments:
I haven't watched "Breaking Bad".
I laughed with the "slipper thing".
Oh Izdiher, you're so original! I always enjoy reading your posts!
Stella from a A Shiny PlaceYes, agreeing that you are "so original"...that is because you open your heart, and let stuff flow honestly out to the world. People always saying to me, "YU need more sleep!" They are correct, of course, because when I DO plane to sleep in, it last 15 hours, and feel SOOO GOOOD after. So they are right.
But you, young girl need to use more sleep--we call it "beauty sleep". Helps to remove stress after waking, and throughout the day.
Do you not drive a car? Maybe do not have one? It is SO much of freedom to experience going and coming when the spirit leads you--either way...
Hey, I am "talking" wayyy too much here, so...
PEACE and LIGHT for you, Izdiher

January 2012
Hey! I'm Kristi, I blog/tweet/Instagram as Schnitzel & Boo. I've been sewing for *drum roll please* 32 years. Holy cow that makes me sound old! I started when I was five, that's all. My mom was a single parent and she worked really hard to buy us the nice clothes that we wanted to wear. You can imagine how she felt the day she came home and found me in my bedroom surrounded by cut up pieces of clothing that she had just bought at Meier & Frank (think Nordstrom) a few days before. Thankfully, she was also very understanding and also really encouraging and she didn't get upset. She simply showed me how to put them back together and then started buying my clothes at Value Village. Smart lady, huh? Very shortly after, my aunt bought me a set of fashion plates and my dream of becoming a fashion designer had developed full force.
Today I am a pattern designer, crafter, sewist, toy maker and quilter. The quilting is a new development in my love affair with fabric. Quilting has always been a part of my sewing history; my aunts, great-aunts, grandmother and great-grandmother have always been quilters. I'm not sure what took me so long to pick up the habit, but now that I have learned it, I can't stop doing it. I love it. I love mashing up fabrics together and seeing what happens. I love figuring out how blocks go together instead of following a pattern.
