The UK car industry could be stung with export charges worth £1.2bn a year if Britain leaves the EU, threatening the future of an industry that includes 13,000 jobs in the manufacturing sector in the South East alone. This week, BMW, which employs over 4,000 workers at its plant in Oxford, added its voice to those warning of the risk of Brexit and the damage that it could do to the South East.
The car industry accounts for around 10 per cent of Britain's trade in goods and in 2014 supported almost 799,000 British jobs. It has been a rare bright spot for the British economy in recent years, thanks in large part to the fact that nearly half of the vehicles built in the UK are sold tariff-free inside the world's largest single market.
A poll by the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders in 2014 found that 92 per cent of automotive companies think Britain is stronger and safer in Europe, and car manufacturers have said that being in Europe is critical for them. This is continuing the long line of large, medium and small businesses coming out to make the case for staying in Europe.
The motor industry is incredibly important to the South East; just last week we got the news that BMW Cowley had broken all production records, with Minis produced in Oxford being exported all over Europe and the world. And Southampton is now the leading vehicle handling port in the UK, with growing exports of British cars abroad leading to Associated British Ports investing in new infrastructure and increased apprentice numbers.
If Britain lost access to the Single Market, it is likely that manufacturers would suddenly face the same 10 per cent tariff on their exports to the EU as their counterparts in the US and Japan. The average cost of an exported UK-made car is now £21,800, meaning manufacturers could be charged an extra £2,180 per vehicle. That would have a catastrophic effect on our motor industry.

I spent this weekend out in Tooele with my family. It was so much fun. I probably did not accomplish what I should have(finishing my resume), but I had so much fun. I got to see Jake for an entire day, went to the gym with mom and dad, saw the garden, watched a movie, mowed the lawn, played with the stinky dogs... :) It was fantastic.
While I was there, mom and I were talking and somehow the topic reminded her of an article that she saw in the LDSLiving magazine. It is about an African American man who joined the church in 1980. He joined the church 2 weeks after meeting the missionaries and later became the first African American to be accepted to the J. Reuben Clark Law School. His faith and accomplishments are pretty impressive. What impressed me the most though was his perspective.
The article talks about race and the restriction of the priesthood and temple ordinances to African Americans prior to 1978. I know that this has been a topic that is difficult to understand, but Keith Hamilton did some soul searching of his own which is enlightening. Here are a few of my favorite excerpts from the article.
"It was as a newly called bishop that I first learned of many of the rationales and myths put forth by LDS commentators and others regarding the Church's historical relationship with blacks—namely its pre-1978 ban against black males receiving the priesthood and all blacks receiving the exalting ordinances available in the temple.
One time, two white, middle-aged sisters in the ward came to me with serious concern about the ways they perceived blacks had been treated by the Church. In an attempt to address their concerns, I researched the issues as best I could, which led me to an abundance of information. Some of it defended the Church, while other things I read severely criticized the Church and its leaders.
Over the years I gathered more and more information, and as I digested and pondered what I read, I often felt a spiritual emptiness or outright offensiveness to my spirit. Scripture study, more ponderings, and intense personal prayer led me to conclude that most of the commentary on both sides of the issue centered around a historical perspective or view toward the issues, which focused on how God's children treated each other, or on what one of His children had said regarding the issue. It occurred to me that this approach might not be the more excellent way, particularly regarding the priesthood ban, since the priesthood is God's, not man's. I felt prompted to consider looking at the ban, and the lifting of the ban in 1978, from the perspective of how God has dealt and continues to deal with His children generally, and in particular, how He had apportioned the "right" of the priesthood in dispensations
prior to our current one.
This provided me the foundation of true principles, which have developed into a sure testimony that allows me to distinguish, through the workings of the Holy Ghost, truth from error and fact from folklore. It has also permitted me the ability to recognize the sublime yet tremendous impact the 1978 revelation on priesthood had on the Church and on all God's children, black or non-black, LDS or otherwise.
In order to qualify to return to our Heavenly Father's presence after our mortal probation, every person must pass through the trials and tribulations of this life. So, too, it is and was for many nations or groups of peoples. The scriptures are replete with evidences that, at times, the Lord's people must pass through severe hardship, due to no fault of their own, in order to serve as instruments in demonstration to others of His love, mercy, compassion, power, and divinity. Should it have been, or be, any different for blacks of this dispensation?"
"I do not know when or why the restrictive practices against my people were adopted and carried out by the LDS Church, but I do know that the policy and practices were the Lord's doing and not the autonomous or unilateral act of any man or men. I know this by faith in God and through personal revelation from the Holy Ghost. According to God's wise and just purposes, He allowed the restrictions to be placed upon my people for the trial, growth, and benefit of all His children, especially my people and those of His church and kingdom on earth.
Adversity, through its many forms and faces, has dug a deep well of sorrow—and thereby created the potential for greater joy—in the lives of many peoples, not just blacks of this dispensation. Early LDS Church members suffered great hardship in establishing the Church in the Eastern states, as did the pioneers who crossed the plains into the Rocky Mountains. Twentieth-century Jews experienced horrendous atrocities during the Holocaust. Trials and adversity have been the lot for all of God's peoples in all dispensations, including this dispensation, and my ancestors and I have not been excluded."
"The Gift of Being Black
For many years I had the good fortune to be associated with a play about the life and times of black Mormon pioneer Jane Manning James, entitled I Am Jane, which contains a poignant scene where Jane is speaking with Elijah Abel, a black convert ordained to the Melchizedek Priesthood by the Prophet Joseph Smith. Jane asks Elijah to give her a straight answer about what she has heard preached by some Latter-day Saints concerning the curse of Cain and black skin. Elijah replies that he once took the question to God, and then shares with Jane his perception of God's response. I close this article with my sincere prayer that Elijah's words will bring each reader the same comfort and counsel they do me:
I feel, Sister Jane, that ours is:
Not a curse but a gift t'us,
The best path we could seek
A place where God can lift us
We kneel; our knees is weak
And when one of us is kneelin',
We understand his fears.
We know what all us is feelin'
We cry each other's tears.
That's just what Jesus done
For all us human folk.
He agreed to come get born
To feel ev'ry pain and poke.
So's he could understand us,
What it is to be a slave.
So's he could get beneath us
And push us outa the grave
Would you rather be the massa
Or the Roman with his whip?
Would you rather nail the Savior—
Put vinegar to his lip?
Or learn the lessons of sufferin'—
How we nothin' without grace.
Jesus, He give us a callin'
He gifted us our race."

Research Institution
AbstractCornerstone Research Group, Inc. (CRG), has developed sandwich core composite material (SynLam(TM)) and related fabrication technology to address the drawbacks of conventional materials and fabrication processes for space-based mirrors. The resulting technologies will directly address NASA's requirement for advanced, low-cost, high quality large optics fabrication processes for building imaging systems that support the Space Science Enterprise's Structure and Evolution of the Universe Theme. Extending recent CRG advancements in syntactic composites by tailoring the material system to cryogenic applications, the new material will achieve a balance of mass, structural, thermal, and optical properties that dramatically advances the state-of-the-art for space-based mirrors. The new material will also enable mirror fabrication techniques that are significantly faster and cheaper than current practice. Currently available syntactic materials show the potential of this class of composite for application in lightweight mirrors. Integrated development of the new material and new process technology will yield synergy in advancing the state-of-the-art in both areas.

Search is still in its infancy and so is the practice of SEO. I love getting others' perspectives on optimization techniques. Collaboration and sharing of ideas helps everyone learn more. Today we have Luke Ciciliano1, Co-Owner and COO of SEO for Lawyers2 answering questions about building links to a website.
First I would like to say a special thanks to Chris Dreyer3 of Rankings.io4 for asking me to discuss link building. This is an area that many attorneys, and people concerned about SEO in general, ask me.
Links are one of biggest topics to come up in SEO discussions. Many attorneys believe that getting backlinks is the most important part of getting your site to the top of search. To understand how to go about getting links, it's important to first discuss why backlinks have historically been important and what their importance will be going forward.
Google's founders met in graduate school in the early days of the consumer internet and began trying to make sense of the web. It's important to remember that search engines, prior to Google, were not very good at returning relevant results. In order to give people a better way to search the web, they needed a way to rank the importance of websites in their particular niche; relevant search results cannot be returned unless you know which sites are the most important for a particular query.
Google's founders had accumulated a large amount of data regarding different web pages and looked for patterns that could be used to make better sense of the web. They realized that if site A was linking to site B then that could be seen as the first site endorsing the second site. If a site had more of these endorsements then that was "…probably due to [the linked to site] being a better page. " They then used this idea to form the concept of "Page Rank," which ranked sites on the number of backlinks they had pointing in their direction.
Google used the idea of Page Rank as an early way of rating website quality. This gave them a way of knowing which site to rank first in response to a query, which site to rank second, and so on. It is important to understand, however, that this method, which was far better than anything used by the competition, had to be developed within the confines of computer technology available in the mid-1990's. This means that as newer technologies became available to Google then better methods of ranking websites could be used to return search results.
Google began its shift away from a link-based approach of ranking websites in 2011. At the 2011 D9 conference Google's Executive Chairman, Eric Schmidt, was asked about this shift5:
Q: "Is your…approach…which was so different than everybody else with Page Rank… still the right way to go?
A: We are trying to move from answers that are link based to answers that are algorithmically based where we can actually compute the right answer. We now have enough artificial intelligence technology…to compute the right answer. We don't consider ourselves beholden to a set of links as we can now just give you the right answer. "
This new approach, for determining which websites are the most relevant to searchers, was developed by having human testers rank websites based on overall quality to determine whether the website was one they would visit again . This new "overall quality" approach is how Google now ranks websites in search.
Backlinks are still important in search but the importance of them is continuing to decline. That being said, backlinks are still one factor that is considered in search. Increasingly, however, only certain links will provide your site any type of a boost in search.
Before answering the questions below, I felt it was important to discuss the history and future of link relevance in search.
First, you should only worry about links that are going to provide value to your site. As mentioned above, many links will provide minimal return to your site. When building links to your site you should focus on those where there is editorial oversight. By this I mean that you should only get links from sources where 1) an actual person is making the decision to include the link, and 2) that the site you are requesting the link from actually has some standards rather than simply adding every last site that requests a link . These are the types of quality backlinks that will help your site in search.
Contacting other site owners directly is fine. This is feasible when you have content relevant to the other site owners. For example, I once wrote a comprehensive blog series for my law practice, which consisted of 5 separate posts, on "Fathers' rights in Nevada." I contacted a few different bloggers that followed the issue of fathers' rights and informed them about my series and let them know that it may be of interest to their readers.
These bloggers then placed a link to my site on their page as a resource to their readers. Blogging6 is a great way to have your site viewed as a resource by other relevant sites which will, in turn, link to you. This is one reason why attorneys should write their blog posts in the form of a series7. Blogging in a series makes your site a greater source of information which, in turn, leads to more links.
Submitting to directories8 or business listings is also a good way to get quality links. If the directory just automatically includes everyone that requests submission then the directory adds no value to your site. If the directory automatically accepts everyone requesting submission then it's not worth your time.
If you ask a site owner to include your site there needs to be value to them. I wouldn't "ask" as much as I would suggest including a link to my site as a resource for the users of the other site. This helps the other site owner add value to his or her readers.
I would suggest what anchor text you would like to use but it's ultimately up to the site owner. Sites that don't automatically use your requested anchor text are exercising the type of "editorial oversight" that Google likes to see. If a site won't automatically use your anchor text then that's one more notch in the column of whether a link on that site is worth your time.
This depends on the quality of your content. Obviously you can build links that add no value to your site pretty quick. But in terms of quality links, that make your site valuable in the eyes of search engines, then you need links from those linking to you because they find your content truly valuable. That's why the best way to get links is to focus on your content and I have stressed the fact that attorneys should update their blogs with quality content frequently9. More quality content on an attorney's blog means that there are more potential websites to which the attorney's blog may be a resource.
Selling links is a violation of Google's Webmaster Guidelines and the search engines are very good at detecting patterns. The only links worth paying for are in directories that provide the type of editorial oversight described above; these are paid directories10 that don't automatically include every site that requests submission. When you pay for these submissions you are actually paying that directory to review your site and not for placement in their directory; if your site doesn't meet their standards then you may be rejected and the fee you paid will not be refunded.
Google can spot a link exchange rather easily. The company's entire existence is based on its ability to recognize patterns and relationships. The search engine will know a link to your site was acquired through a link exchange. That being said, exchanged links may very well provide value to a user. Exchanging links (as long as you don't violate Google's Webmaster Guidelines) won't harm your site; it simply won't add any value. Google will not count these links as quality links to your site.
The key in this question is the term "natural pattern." As long as you are using words and links naturally then there will be no problems.
At SEO for Lawyers we help our clients with their link building efforts. This ranges from helping attorneys with the direction of their blogging and content to helping them establish the right types of relationships for appropriate linking. In other words, we go about it correctly. There are plenty of SEO companies, however, that don't have a clue of how to properly build links. The answer to this question is that you can trust an SEO company to help with link structures but just make sure they will go about it correctly.
See my discussion above. The idea of focusing on links is like putting the cart before the horse. Attorneys should focus on the quality and frequency of their website content and the links will flow from that. Focusing on content and overall quality will not only get you links, but it will help you in the other areas Google has been increasingly emphasizing since 2011.
Google recognizes that you can't control who is going to link to your site. If you are going about it correctly then you don't need to be worried about "negative SEO. " The only people, in my opinion, who need to worry about links they don't recognize are the one's engaging in shady SEO tactics to begin with. That being said, I know a lot has been made lately of using Google's "disavow link" tool11. I have never had the need to use it on my sites and our clients at SEO for Lawyers are doing quite well in search and we've never had to disavow any links.

A Marketing Guru Rewrites the Rules for Achieving Fame and Fortune
A dynamic business biography packed with great stories and practical lessons from one of the most successful figures in the entertainment industry today
How does a working-class kid from Queens, New York, transform a lifelong fascination with the Goodyear blimp into an aviation empire by the time he's 21? How does that young aviation entrepreneur then quickly become one of the most powerful forces in the entertainment industrya modern-day Louis B. Mayer, as the press has dubbed him? Find out in Bands, Brands, and Billions.
Now, for the first time, in Bands, Brands, and Billions, Lou Pearlman reveals the secrets behind his uncanny success. Writing in an engaging and dynamic style, he describes his "10 Practical Principles" for business and entrepreneurial success and offers prescriptions for everything from team building to risk taking, and from savvy marketing to raising capital and financing new ventures. While his lessons are both instructive and inspirational, his anecdotes are classic object lessons in thinking out of the box. Among other things, he shares how he:
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
"Suppose I came to you when you were an aspiring singer trying to make ends meet and I told you that I was willing to invest $3 million to help make you a star? How would you feel if I offered you this deal: If it all works out, you'll make $10-$20 million and I'll make $20-$50 million. Does that sound like a good deal to you?"Lou Pearlman in Bands, Brands, and Billions
Lou Pearlman just might be the most misunderstood entrepreneur in the world. To the people who know him best, he is a genial, generous, and gregarious business genius whose primary fault is that "he's too nice." This unpretentious son of a Flushing, N.Y., dry cleaning man is also one of the great bootstrap success stories in American business history. Yet, that is not always the public's perception, in part because Pearlman has played the role of a hard-nosed entertainment mogul to add drama to his widely acclaimed network television series Making the Band, and in part because of lawsuits that have unfairly portrayed him as "the Svengali" of the hugely successful pop groups Backstreet Boys and *NSYNC.
Though he grew up in a one-bedroom apartment in Queens, Lou Pearlman became an aviation millionaire in his twenties after building Trans Continental Airlines and its fleet of helicopters, planes, jets, and blimps. He then turned to his other lovepop musicand single-handedly revived the dormant teen music scene by bankrolling the early careers of the Backstreet Boys, *NSYNC, LFO, O-Town, and, most recently, Natural. Today, his Trans Continental Companies encompasses a multimillion dollar, global empire.
In Bands, Brands, and Billions, this marketing mastermind shares the secrets, techniques, and strategies that have made him revered for his golden touch. More than an engrossing biography, this how-to book for aspiring billionaires features invaluable lessons in entrepreneurship, recipes for risk taking, and practical advice on solving business problems with ingenuity, creativity, and hustle.
You'll discover how he turned a college term paper into a half-billion-dollar industry, how he used mink coats to save a flagging charter airline, and how he won his first airship advertising contract by deploying a blimp on the desk of a McDonald's executive.
Pearlman explains both the inspiration and the calculation behind his transition from blimps to boy bands. He leads you step-by-step through his processes for generating a new business idea, identifying target markets, researching and understanding the competition, and minimizing risk. And, he provides seven practical business principles that will ensure success for entrepreneurs and business leaders in any industry.
Dream it and do it . . . Dig for the dollars . . . Dare to think big . . . Bands, Brands, and Billions provides guidance and encouragement for anyone who dreams of creating and building a successful business career. It's your one-stop resource for entertaining reading; a behind-the-scenes look at some of today's biggest pop idols; and expert advice on overcoming the many challenges faced by every entrepreneur.
Lessons in success from the ultimate entrepreneur
Lou Pearlman hasn't created one successful businesshe's created dozens! The marketing genius behind The Backstreet Boys and *NSYNC heads a multibillion-dollar aviation and entertainment empire. Now he helps you make your own entrepreneurial dreams come true.

very good and simple to make!
Really good. I cut the prep time considerably by crushing a clove of garlic into the oil I'm using to brush the bread. Since I'm a garlic fanatic, I also use the garlic oil to season the tomato mixture.
The topping was excellent. My kids loved it and won't eat tomatoes. I just brushed the sliced baguette with olive oil and baked in the oven until crunchy. Also topped with fresh parmesan. Yummy!

The next time you fly, ask three different people what they paid for their tickets. Chances are you will get three different prices. Finding the lowest price for your airline travel can be a daunting experience.
Before you buy an airline ticket check out this site. Seat Guru helps you plan where you want to sit, as well as helpful information about the type of aircraft you will be flying, boarding procedures (different on some airlines), TSA info, and other helpful tips:
Items to take with you on the plane
- A roll of tape, in case your luggage is damaged in flight and the lock is broken when you pick it up at baggage claim.
- Chapstick and hand lotion, as the aircraft cabin is quite dry.
- An empty water bottle. You can fill it with the drink the attendant gives you and cap it when you finish then it wont spill on your fellow traveler (or you).
With 14 Million Unpublished Airfares, you can't go wrong with Airfare.com! Airfare.com offers up to 70% off published airfares on major airlines world-wide as well as discounted hotel stays. With Airfare.com's low prices and millions of unpublished fares, this is the place to go when you are looking for the best deal on airfare.
Click the Airfare.com banner below and get started!
Once you have purchased your airline ticket, you are ready to face the airport! When you pass by those "exclusive" airline lounges, don't you wish you were a member so you could wait for your flight in comfort? Do what I do, make sure you have a "Priority Pass" which is accepted at all major airports and most airlines. To join just click on the Priority Pass banner below.
Now you're ready to sit back and wait for the "Great Launch Day" of your trip! Right? Not so fast, what if:
- Your passport doesn't arrive by flight day?
- The pilots or attendants go on strike?
- Someone in your travel party gets sick?
- The area where you are going is suddenly ravaged by weather?
- There is suddenly political unrest and it is unsafe to travel?
- The airline changes or cancels a flight? This can happen.
Anything under the sun can cause your dream trip to go up in smoke possibly leaving you with vacation bills but no memories! What then? I always recommend a travel insurance policy because it's reasonably priced, offers "peace of mind", and will reimburse you if any of the above happens to you. Click this banner to find out how reasonable it is to cover your trip, then "sit back and wait for the Great Launch Day of your trip!"

From the award-winning columnist and author of the national best-seller The Undercover Economist comes a provocative big-idea book about the genuine benefits of being messy: at home, at work, in the classroom, and beyond.
Messy: The Power of Disorder to Transform Our Lives celebrates the benefits that messiness has in our lives: why it's important, why we resist it, and why we should embrace it instead. Using research from neuroscience, psychology, and social science as well as captivating examples of real people doing extraordinary things, Tim Harford explains that the human qualities we value - creativity, responsiveness, resilience - are integral to the disorder, confusion, and disarray that produce them.
From the music studio of Brian Eno to the Lincoln Memorial with Martin Luther King Jr., from the boardroom to the classroom, messiness lies at the core of how we innovate, how we achieve, how we reach each other - in short, how we succeed.
In Messy, you'll learn about the unexpected connections between creativity and mess; understand why unexpected changes of plans, unfamiliar people, and unforeseen events can help generate new ideas and opportunities as they make you anxious and angry; and come to appreciate that the human inclination for tidiness - in our personal and professional lives, online, even in children's play - can mask deep and debilitating fragility that keeps us from innovation.
Stimulating and listenable as it points exciting ways forward, Messy is an insightful exploration of the real advantages of mess in our lives.
©2016 Tim Harford (P)2016 Random House Audio
"I'm a neat freak with three kids..."
Yes, listening to the British accent of the narrator is soothing for considering the idea of thinking different to accept that sometimes Messy is just the right challenge to make us excel.
Chapter 7 & 8 discussing the AirFrance flight 447 tragedy. It was an interesting and overwhelming doing a step by step of the final moments wishing you could help them.
To consider that when I've been confronted with a mess, the best choices I've ever made were to take a deep breath and get to work.
As a mom of twin toddlers, I've had to give up my neatness, and it's not been easy to accept the 'mess' this helped me understand the positive side of that, and how I've thrived in the chaos.
"There is hope"
Tim wrote a great book that put me at ease about messiness.
Tim references several pop culture reference making it easy to relate stories I knew to his argument.
Nick 'the nice' Guy Smith narrates perfectly making X1 speed a comfortable pace.
I'd recommend this book to anyone who has ever pooh-poohed another's messy workspace.
"Formulaic Review of Randomness"
I found it a bit amusing that book ascribing the value of mess, or as a scientist would call it "random noise" has such a predictable pattern. That is, this book like the vast number of other pop psychology and behavioral economics books out there all follow the same pattern: key in on a few personal and emotionally appealing anecdotes and make sweeping generalizations on human behavior based on these isolated stories. In fact, more than a few of the stories were borrowed from other pop psych books. That said, the stories are entertaining and the narrator has a pleasant, baritone voice (with a hint of a British accent) that made this book easy to listen to on my daily commute: which by the way I am very certain is the fastest way to/from work since I ride a bike everyday and have systematically reviewed all routes possible! Enjoy the ride.
Sometimes it's good to mix things up a little bit. And scene.
This felt like a story that could have been better told in a shorter form Fast Company article. I found it more entertaining than insightful. In analytics, one of the best methods for avoiding a local optimization trap and to find a better global optimum is to introduce a little randomness into your equation, and so it is with life. This is a book of those illustrative examples from life.

Murder of a Dead Man by Katherine John
Jubilee Street - the haunt of addicts and vagrants is a part of town to avoid, especially when it becomes the stalking ground of a brutal and ruthless murderer. A drunken down and out is the first casualty, mutilated and burned alive but his grisly death raises even more problems for the investigating officers, Sergeants Trevor Joseph and Peter Collins. They discover that their victim died two years earlier. So who is the dead man? And what was the motive for the bizarre crime? While they seek a killer in the dark urban underworld, the tally of corpses grows and the only certainty is that they can trust no man's face as his own. He froze. His mouth opened but uttered no sound. The corpse of the young man was sitting bolt upright, the sheet draped in folds around its waist. The torso was white, finely muscled, the porcelain quality of the skin gleaming in glaring contrast to the purple and blue pulp where the face had been.

Firstly my big thanks to Iris G for awarding me this groovy accolade! Thanks Iris - the feeling is entirely mutual.
In the spirit of this fine award, it is my pleasant duty to pass it on to the following bloggers for their outstanding contribution to the diminution of my knitting time.
Lixie Knits It Not only is Lixie a fine blogger and podcaster she is on her honeymoon as we speak so this comes with my best wishes to you both for the future
Nickerjac Nic is one of the most creative people I know who is currently turning her creative endeavors to something entirely different (see below). This comes with love to the three of you!
Missmalice Alice writes a great blog, is a fellow new spinner and is just about to open an online yarn shop. No Alice, I'm not just sucking up...
Vakerellen Hanne writes her blog in Finnish and English which is impressive enough but she is also the speediest test knitter in the universe!
Liverpool Leftovers Maggie mixes some beautiful gardening photographs with her knitting on her blog. She is also having a tough time at the moment so this is to remind her that I am thinking of her
and finally.... The Yarn Yard Club. This is a group award, with apologies to any gentlemen of the species who might be members, to say what a wonderful, supportive creative bunch you are, with especial thanks to Natalie for making it all possible.
and you thought Gwyneth Paltrow gushed when she got an award....
Display your awards with pride ladies, you've earned them, and don't forget to spread the love.
Secondly, I have been overwhelmed by the positive response to my sock pattern. I was really nervous about it and now I am really glad I shared it with you. I am particularly stunned by the lovely people here who have said such encouraging things about it and even organised a knit along for the Spiral Sock pattern that I designed for the Yarn Yard. A KNIT ALONG!!!! I admit I am feeling more than a little giddy.
And finally, time to get back to the knitting before I become insufferable. Does anyone remember this snippet that I posted back in May?
Well it turned into this, which is a gift for Nic and Andy and their impending arrival, affectionately known as Peanut. Officially, it is a Baby Poncho from an ancient issue of Interweave Knits made in Lang Fortissima 100% cotton but Andy has renamed it as Peanut's Windy Miller Top.I think the name suits it perfectly.
I think I ought to go and do some good, plain, sensible knitting now.

Check with the lab tech department for course registration deadlines, and laboratory technology program requirements. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Grayson County College.
Medical laboratory technologists and lab technicians collect samples and perform tests to analyze body fluids, tissue, and other substances. An entry-level job for lab technologists usually requires a bachelors degree in medical technology or life sciences. Medical lab technicians (lab techs), on the other hand, need only an accredited associate's degree program in clinical laboratory science. Coursework emphasizes laboratory skills, including safety procedures and lab management.
Medical laboratory technologists and technicians can obtain a general certification or a certification in a specialty, such as cytotechnology or medical biology. For credentialing information, visit the American Society for Clinical Laboratory Science. Employment of medical lab techs is projected to grow 16% in the coming years. An increase in the aging population is expected to lead to a greater need to diagnose medical conditions, such as cancer or type II diabetes. Average salary for medical and clinical laboratory technologists and technicians was $50,550 in May 2017, according to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics. Beyond major requirements within the lab tech department, you may consider Northeastern State University medical sonography program as a complementary elective to your primary course of study.

To John Adams from William Rotch, 9 April 1823
New Bedford 4th moth. 9—1823
Respected Friend John Adams
The Old Colony memorial was lately put into my hands with a view I suppose that I might see my doom portray'd by A Coffin, in a letter to J Adams Esqr. in the year 1785, lately hunted up after laying quiet Thirty-seven years, and now carefully publish'd; not by the person to whom it was addres'd, who no doubt saw no cause for it; but by order of my friend John Adams, with his directions to insert it, word for word; as it was a letter of personal reflections, and fraught with falshood and false suggestions throughout, which thou could not know whether true or false, would not candor have dictated an enquiry into the truth of the charges therein contain'd before it was put to press; what could be thy motive in this transaction? was it the effect of old age bordering on second childhood? This I find to be my case in some instances; (though I hope never to the injury of any individual) or was it some other case? I wish it may be the former; but the injunction of word for word I fear puts it beyond the weakness of Old age alone; but if it was with a view to asperse my character, I apprehend it is too late, for whether it is bad or good, will probably remain much as it is to the end, which is very near; I am now Eighty Eight years of age, one foot on the verge of time, and the other like hanging over Eternity; I am yet in the world, and that seems to be all; therefore if thy motive in this publication was unfriendly, I believe it will have no more effect on me, than the diging up the bones of John Wickliff and burning them after being inter'd forty one years, had on him.—The Editor of the Old Colony at the close of these letters has done me justice, which I may coroberate without Egotism and say, that I have done more than any man in America to extend the Whale fishery, and secure it to the Unites States; when I was in France the Assembly were about laying a duty of twelve livers pCt. on all imported oil which would have been an intire prohibition; myself & Son exerted all our abilities the contrary to our immediate interest to have it reduced to four, with no other motive but to leave an opening for American oil, we could not succeed at four, but got it reduc'd to five, which left the opening for American oil; we made a great increasing demand in France for the use of animal Oil, by which according to my wish America was greatly benefited.—my motive for going to England and France was this; I had lost by British captures about Sixty Thousand dollars, and the Alien duty of £17 Stg pTon on oil taking place by our seperation from Great Britain, render'd it impossible to proceed without a certain loss, which though evident, yet we continued it two years at that certain loss, with a hope something favourable might take place, but nothing of that kind appearing, I thought it necessary to seek elsewhere; France I found the most favourable; there we enter'd on the Fishery, intending to pursue it no longer than five years and return to the United States.—That tale of Coffins respecting Bermudas has not even the shadow of truth.—I suppose we have lost one valuable Whale fishery; that is to the River St. Lawrence and Streights of Blisle; which we should be glad to pursue.—Thou wrote me several years ago for information of the whale fishery; I had kept a regular account of what had been taken for about Twenty years with the different kinds of oil & bone and the different seas taken in, of which I would most gladly have furnish'd thee, but as I wrote thee I could find none of my minutes and supposed <
I had> I had destroy'd them with a great number of useless papers when I was going to England; some years after I found about one half of them, but apprehending it was too late to be of any use I let them rest.—
I remain with respect Thy assured Friend

tom gullett 7/29/12
Thank you tom, but I thought that it did make sense. Is it so hard to follow? Barnett had a son named Thomas and he (the son) was born around 1777 in South Carolina. Barnett (the Dad) was also in the Revolution and signed up in Lancaster County South Carolina. I reread my post and thought that it made perfect sense, I am sorry if you got confused.

Two elite climbers battle it out for a first ascent

Chris Sharma and Adam Ondra are arguably two of the best sport climbers in the world. So what happens when they go head-to-head, competing for the first-ascent of an unclimbed route? This video, from La Dura Dura, a preview of a full film which debuts at the Reel Rock Tour in September. The two don't seem too competitive—but then again, Ondra does throw a bit of a fit when he falls.

Mistakes happen. You receive a check that has $1,500 in the numeric line, also known as the courtesy line, but "one thousand fifty dollars and zero/hundredths" on the text line, known as the legal line. You don't have to return the check to the sender. The Uniform Commercial Code has established rules to allow the check to be honored.
The UCC applies to commercial transactions in the United States. Article 3, Section 3-114 establishes rules to determine which total prevails when payment instruments, such as a check, contain contradictory amounts. According to the law, "If an instrument contains contradictory terms, typewritten terms prevail over printed terms, handwritten terms prevail over both, and words prevail over numbers." Therefore, if a check has $1,500 in the numeric line and "one thousand fifty dollars and zero/hundredths" on the text line, it should legally be cashed for $1,050.
Teller Processing
Despite the UCC, cashing a check with mismatched totals is unusual and still can be tricky. If you've written the check yourself, consider voiding and rewriting so that both totals agree. Otherwise, take the check to a teller, point the difference and have a copy of the UCC with you. Check-reading software detects the discrepancy in checks deposited electronically and may kick the check out as being unusable to prevent fraudulent altering. If you must deposit a mismatched check electronically, consider waiting a few days before using the funds to be sure they have been credited to your account.
Despite your best efforts, your bank still may refuse to cash a check. The UCC does not require that they cash the check; it only establishes rules for doing so. Your bank's written policy will govern, if it is consistently applied. If your bank refuses to cash the check, you can return it to the sender and request a new check, cash or a money order.
Be Careful
If you've mistakenly paid a bill by writing a check with mismatched totals, verify that your bank deducted the same amount that your biller credited. The biller actually receives the amount the bank pays. In a discrepancy, send the biller your bank statement and a copy of the check and request a correction. If you write "one thousand fifty dollars and zero/hundredths" in the legal line, but the bill actually was $1,500, your biller legally can charge you late fees for the remaining amount, even if you wrote the correct amount in the number line. If the mistake isn't caught before the next billing cycle, they also may report you as late to credit bureaus.

The exercise:
Write two haiku about: the studio.
It is snowing outside, something fierce. I think Max will be very excited tomorrow morning, as at the current rate there will be more than enough accumulated to make a snowman.
Also: there were two owls in the walnut tree in our front yard this evening. It was amazing how loud their hoots were, though there wasn't enough light to see them until they flew away.
Yes, I stood in our front doorway, letting the cold in, freezing my butt off in a t-shirt and pajama pants, staring up into the tree trying to see them. Though I was about to give up right before they took flight.
A smile on her face,
she practices her routine
with no end in sight

We make the movies
that people want to see. So
make the edits. Now.

Throwup Fight
We went to a new all natural grocery store. It was crazy money, CRAZY!
Thanks for letting me vent. And drink. LOL! Is your yard ready?

I just have a small patio and it still isn't ready lol! Well, it's close - I just need to buy some hanging plants and it's too early yet. I wintered over a geranium and it actually has some flower buds on it so that was rather thrilling. Of course it's freaking cold out today so whether it will survive is anybody's guess but the pot is too huge to keep carrying inside and out so we'll just let Mother Nature do her thing and hope. I found some good alcohol this weekend too - my favourite organic beer now has an amber beer, amber beer being my favourite so woo hoo!

$5 potatoes???? I think I might throw a few potato eyes in my garden and make a mint!!!
I used a rototiller this weekend and did lots of yard work. But there is still a lot left to do, darn it.
And then repeat every two times the neighbor mows his...
The garage is a freaking nightmare, so if we spread it all over the driveway to clean it, people would think it's a garage sale. Or garbage dump.
We could get rid of stuff, but also we could gain more garbage.

Well other than a weekend spot clean and laundry, I played all day Saturday, then lost the rest of the weekend to my back. Does your husband know mine? Our yard is a wreck, still unkept from last fall. So I guess mine was an averaged out C, but I think I'll reserve the - because Saturday with my daughter and her friend was just so nice.

Hmm I must confess I do buy a lot of organic fruit and veg and if I'm having any meat it's always organic and grass fed. It always tastes good but I'm never sure if I'm wasting my money or not. I just hate the idea of consuming antibiotics/ hormones/ pesticides and whatever other shit they pump animals full of. I don't eat masses of meat but it's always organic and stuff like milk butter cheese etc too. We don't eat out much and are careful with other spending so I guess this is my thing. What's that moscato? Looks good

Is Majora's Mask the reason the 3DS has increased hardware sales by 60%?
Since its release in February, Majora's Mask 3D has sold over 730,000 units in the United States.
According to a statement from Nintendo:
The New Nintendo 3DS XL system continues to inject growth into Nintendo's Hand-held business and the momentum created for the Wii U in 2014 has carried over into 2015. Take these two elements, add in fun, exclusive titles starring some of the biggest names in gaming, and overall sales of Nintendo hardware systems so far in 2015 have increased by nearly 60 percent over sales during he same time frame in 2014.
The note continues to mention that The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D & Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS have assisted in hardware sales, as well as increase software sales for the 3DS.
Nintendo is hoping that this momentum will continue into the 2015 year with the upcoming releases of Xenoblade Chronicles 3D (3DS) and Splatoon (Wii U).
As a Zelda fan site, we can't help but think anytime characters from The Legend of Zelda are involved, Nintendo will see an increase in sales.
This is a good report to read from Nintendo as we head into the make it or break it summer season with E3 just weeks away now.
Be sure to follow The Hidden Triforce on Facebook and Twitter to stay informed for all Nintendo and Zelda related news!

I Can't Be Interested In Sex When There's No Money, Love Fades And Dies – Actress Felicia Fred
I Can't Be Interested In Sex When There's No Money, Love Fades And Dies – Actress Felicia Fred
Nollywood actress, Felicia Fred, revealed this in a recent chat with Vanguardngr.
When asked which is important to her: money, love or sex, she said: "To me its money, because when you have love and you don't have money it fades, it dies, you can't sustain it.
The country is hard, the economy is hard, and everything is money. For sex, it is not important to me because it can't be my interest where money is."

worked a special VIP tour, lost my backpack for two hours, ate dinner (free!) at the abbey inn with honors, and then had a studying sleepover with kailin.
really bad day. had 2 tests, spanish and a&p, that i had studied my booty off for and well, they didn't go very well. i might have had a major meltdown in front of the financial aid office (and dr. hamner might have walked by...). then had to put my RA shirt on and deal with all the stuff going on on my floor. after filling out two incident reports, trying to mediate two roommates (unsuccessful), and receiving four post-its on my door - i kinda felt like a sucky RA. well, no i really did.
a much better day! ate lunch with kiara and headed to the library to get my study on.
a&p II lab practical. need i say more?
but we went out to freebirds after and then all was right in the world again.
ireland study group, lunch with kelly at jason's deli, packed and left for the catholic center retreat. isn't it funny/amazing how a great weekend can make you forget how sucky your week was?
upcoming events (i.e. tests):
11/11 - Spanish and A&P Quiz
11/15 – Psychology Test
11/17 – Psychology paper and presentation
11/17 – Ireland Research paper
11/18 – A&P Lab Homeostasis Project

Nicholas P. Trist to James Madison, 30 December 1826
Tufton Decr. 30. '26.
Dear Sir
The first thing to be done after the adjournment of the Board, was to make up the record & copy off all those long enactments of Mr Johnson. This I commenced on the succeeding day, & was occupied by, pretty closely, till the Thursday ensuing. Then I went immediately, to the university, where Mr Lomax & myself commenced our joint labours of digesting the enactments, which we got through by twelve o'clock the next day–sitting up till twelve that night. I then came home, calling on the printer to whom I had some time before spoken, & prevailed on him to commence the work early in the week which is now closing. Once home, I set about the work of making up, by writing & patching, such a copy of the whole body of enactments, arranged according to the order agreed on by Mr Lomax & myself, as the printer might be able to print from. This I was not able to finish as soon as I expected—Indeed, it is not entirely complete now—And thursday morning was the earliest I could go to Charlotttesville for the purpose of making them commence. There I went, & staid until yesterday evening that I might expedite the business as much as possible by my presence: but the cold was so intense (6 & 7 < > nine a.m.), that little or no work could be done. Every thing in the office was frozen. Yesterday evening I came home, intending to go back this morning. But in the evening I had a spitting of blood which I do not know at all how to account for, and as this continued this morning when my horse was brought to the door–I yielded to the sollicitations of the family–staid at home, & wrote to Dr D. Then, I felt but very slightly indisposed–but now, after writing all day, on letters that the interests of the family would not bear delay in, I feel very badly, & should not scrawl this, if I did not know yr anxiety on the subject of the report & the uneasiness you wd experience at my silence. Affectionate remembrance to Mrs M.–Yours very gratefully
N P Trist
The printer will exert himself to the utmost; but he says he cannot possibly finish before the end of next week–probably, before the middle of the following. Both your packets came safe; & I have to return My thanks for the English papers.

text: Shipping doldrums drives vessels to the junk yard Generally lackadaisical economic conditions have beaten down shipping demand, which is consequently sending vessels to the scrap heap in record numbers. According to a report from British shipping industry monitor Vessel Value, ships with the capacity to haul 52 million metric tons of load are being beached and scrapped as carriers struggle to deal with stagnant growth, which is expected to last over two to three years. The trend is second only to the 2012 carnage, when 61 million tons worth of capacity was slaughtered. It also counters the growth path in the five years through 2015, when liners ordered around 1,500 ships annually. In the first six months of this year, shipyards booked 293 vessel orders, or a total of almost 12 million tons. "Given the tremendous overcapacity, it will take much more recycling and at least two to three years of no growth in capacity to see some balance between supply and demand," New York-based Karatzas Marine Advisors Co. chief executive Basil Karatzas told reporters. "What's changing is that younger ships are being scrapped, but recycling won't solve overcapacity on its own," Maersk Line chief executive officer Soren Skou further observed. "Only market growth can do this." Additionally, Skou said that Maersk scrapped only about 1% of its total capacity, but expects to send more vessels to the recycling yard in the next three to five years. SHARE
