London 2012 Opening Ceremony captured the history and humour of jolly olde England
LONDON – Was it better than Beijing? Why bother to compare? From the moment the Chinese staged their spectacular show four years ago, people wondered whether anyone would ever top it. But they do not award medals for Opening Ceremonies. Every nation is unique. Every ceremony is unique. Everyone will have an opinion, colored by perspective, or patriotism, or cynicism.
Whatever you thought of director Danny Boyle's effort to open the 2012 London Games – odd, awesome, undignified, funny, underwhelming, overwhelming, maybe all of the above – it was yet another marvel of Olympic production. The stadium floor went from pastoral to industrial, from a hard rock concert to a soft dance performance, and back again. Boyle crammed in hundreds of years of British history, high culture and pop culture, from sheep to Shakespeare to the Sex Pistols, and he did it in front of Queen Elizabeth II, who was decidedly unstuffy and even joined in the fun herself before later declaring the Games open.
[Slideshow: A look at the Opening Ceremony]
The light, sound, symbolism, it was impossible to process it all, let alone report it all. So here are the top five most memorable moments from the curtain raiser on London 2012:
5. The scene setters: We began in the olde English countryside, with fake townspeople living daily life and playing games, but with 7,346 square meters of real grass and real flowers and 89 real live animals – two goats, three cows, three dogs, 10 chickens, 10 ducks, 12 horses and 40 sheep. At one point, you could hear baa-ing in the stadium's upper deck. Then suddenly, with the dark beat of drums, that gave way to a depiction of the Industrial Revolution – loud, chaotic, even creepy – seven gigantic chimneys rising from the stadium floor and belching smoke into the sky, hundreds of workers forging iron to make Olympic rings. Romantic and real.
4. Boat it like Beckham: Soccer star David Beckham isn't playing for England in the Olympics, but he played a large role in bringing the Games to London, and Friday, the flame to the stadium. Early in the ceremony, cameras showed him piloting a speedboat on the Thames, transporting the flame from Tower Bridge. He later helped transfer the flame to one of the final torches. Wearing a dark suit and a smile, he was nothing but dashing, perhaps drawing a key TV demographic with his Bond-like look.

3. "Chariots of Fire'': Think athletics, think England and you can hear "Chariots of Fire'' in your head. The London Symphony Orchestra played the iconic music as the famous movie scene played on the screens, and that would have been enough – except Danny Boyle added a bit of British humor. Actor Rowan Atkinson, a.k.a. Mr. Bean, joined the orchestra and pretended to play one note, repeatedly pressing one key on a synthesizer. He also appeared inserted into the infamous movie scene, racing on the beach, jumping in a car, cutting to the front and cutting through the tape first. Oh, and he ended with a fart joke.
2. "Hey, Jude'': The Olympic flame had been lit, the fireworks had exploded, and Sir Paul McCartney came on stage for the finale. With the flame burning bright in the center of the stadium, he sang "Hey, Jude'' as the volunteers swayed from side to side. The idea was for the athletes and spectators to sway from side to side, too, for everyone to sing along, for everyone to be united in song and sport.
"Na, na, na, na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na, hey, Jude …''
[More: Cauldron lit by seven British youngsters]
The only problem was, it was 12:45 a.m. by that time. Not everyone sang along, as McCartney urged them to join in. The athletes began filing out. Everyone was tired, and there are Games to play, you know?
1. The Queen: Her Majesty did not just declare the Games open. She made her acting debut in a mini-James Bond film shot at Buckingham Palace. Her Majesty jumped out of a helicopter – or at least allowed herself to be portrayed as jumping out of a helicopter. The screens showed actor Daniel Craig coming to pick up the real Queen and escort her to her flight, and though it was a stuntman who did the rest of the work, the fact that the Queen showed a sense of adventure and a sense of humor was a royal treat.
The Queen is cool? Too cool.

They said this winter would be harsh, and so far, that's shaping up to be true. Our first snow storm (so rare to have ANY snow in November), canceled school for two days and brought western Washington to a standstill. It has been nice to have an extra long holiday week. And of course, Silas was thrilled about the snow.
I'm glad I finished his cabled jacket in time. It seemed to keep him toasty through the storm. Unfortunately, the same could not be said for our house. As is so common here, we lost power. Walking around town yesterday, listening to the hum of generators and smelling wood smoke, it was pretty apparent: No one had power. Most of the county seemed to be out, and it is nearly miraculous that we got ours back after only 24 hours.
Thanks to our friends, we spent the day in their toasty house, basking in the heat from their wood stove. Sobin, who has yet to show any fondness for our new kitty, has been hanging out in the garage a lot.
Yesterday, we let them in the house together, unattended, for the first time, because I didn't want him out in the bitter cold. Since we were gone most of the day, they had no choice but to work it out without our interference (or Silas doing his Sobin imitation, growling like a tiger and further provoking the already provoked big kitty). While Sobin still does little more than growl, hiss, and mope, he doesn't seem to want to physically confront her. Since he is three times her size, this is a good thing, I think.
I meant to post more about Olive, and I will soon. The snow storm, power outage, and preparing to host Thanksgiving are keeping us pretty busy. More later...
And have a Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! Safe travels.

I have 3 days to get everything done before I leave on vacation with my oldest friend Sammie. :) So that means I have a LOT to get done.
I started off like I always do...I made a list:
Then I set to work. As you can see, I crossed a few things off the list already. And add a few more. I made a batch of puppy chow for us to take and I bought Sam's gift today too! I'm staring at the list of DC sites and pictures now so check that off the list.
Tonight I'm going to work on getting our itinerary set up and making a list of everything I need to pack.
For now though...it's off to watch the finale of Pretty Little Liars!!

What's Behind the Accusations that Trump is Anti-Semitic?
As the screenwriter of two feature films about the Holocaust, one of which was nominated for several Academy Awards, and also the author of a series of prize-winning mystery novels about a Jewish detective, I think I can safely say that I have spent a good deal of my life paying close attention to matters of anti-Semitism.
I write this only partly to toot my own horn but also to give some weight to the considerable perplexity with which I view the growing meme that Donald Trump is somehow anti-Semitic. Not only are more members of his immediate family -- daughter, son-in-law and daughter-in-law and therefore various grandchildren -- Jewish than any previous president, his cabinet and advisers are chock-full of my coreligionists. Trump -- he of the "New York values" and the countless hours on the Howard Stern radio show -- has lived a life surrounded by and working with Jews with no problem that I have ever heard about.
The accusations never made sense to me. When I first read his statement on Holocaust Day, I didn't even notice that it didn't mention the Jews. Like a lot of people, I already assumed that was what was meant. Wasn't the Holocaust about the Jews, largely? (Yes, of course, there were others, but virtually every Holocaust book or movie is about the Jews with only a few exceptions. Some barely mention the Jews by name because it's a given. It's almost an example of metonymy.) I didn't even think to ask about it until some gotcha artists in the media who attack Trump for just about everything endlessly called attention to it. Maybe it was a deliberate omission on his administration's part, but I sincerely doubt it. It certainly was nothing like making the prime minister of Israel cool his heels with his staff in the lower part of the White House, which our former president did while he went upstairs to eat dinner alone with his family. That was a truly calculated act.
And then there was the question by the Hasidic reporter at the press conference. Trump -- who we know has a thin skin -- jumped on the young man because Donald evidently thought he was once again about to be accused unfairly of anti-Semitism. I might have done the same myself. The young reporter, to his credit, clearly understood this and forgave Trump in in a post-conference interview, although the same gotcha artists in the press did not, most likely deliberately. (Speaking of which, the deliberate misunderstanding of Trump seems almost to be a disease with much of media. Sometimes it veers to the comical. If the SNL writers were genuinely sophisticated, they would show that. But they daren't.)
And then there was the -- unsolved at this writing -- series of threatening phone calls made to Jewish Community Centers over the weekend coupled with the vandalism of a Jewish cemetery. Hillary Clinton -- she of the "Suha kiss" -- jumped on Trump for being tardy in his condemnation. But when he did make one, just a few hours later, it was direct and forthright.

Research Statement
The understanding of collective phenomena is one of the major intellectual challenges in many research fields. Conventional statistical methods have been successfully applied to describe systems at or near equilibrium, but they often fail to provide accurate predictions for systems and processes away from equilibrium, where time reversal symmetry and ergodicity are readily broken. Yet, patterns of amazing complexity spanning an immense range of hierarchical spatial and temporal scales ubiquitous in the world around us are formed from non-equilibrium conditions, such as turbulent flow, structure of the universe, social activities, and life itself. Research on such systems and processes may help identify the rule of randomness and recognize the role of correlated degrees of freedom in the organization and transport of energy and matter. Such quest for universality is motivated by a hope of identifying emergent principles governing non-equilibrium systems.
The research in our group focuses on the study of extreme/interfacial/non-equilibrium physics and chemistry of liquids and soft materials. We synergistically combine and push the boundaries of statistical and quantum mechanical theories-based simulations and neutron and X-ray experiments. The goal is to understand long timescale phenomena and rare events in matter. On the application side, leveraging our expertise on liquids and soft materials, we build soft robots and wearable human-enhancing devices.
To date, how to characterize and control matter away from equilibrium remains a grand challenge. From the fundamental science perspective, research on non-equilibrium phenomena may shed light on a class of scientific problems involving phenomena emerging from self-organization, symmetry breaking, and rare events, such as viscous flow of supercooled liquids and glasses, nucleation and crystal growth, folding of polypeptide chains into structured proteins, and self-assembly of micro-units into functional objects. From the application perspective, research on non-equilibrium phenomena may yield transformative knowledge that directly influence countless pivotal applications, such as understanding and preventing the aging and degradation of materials, bio-preservation by kinetically blocking the transition pathways, design and manufacture of novel amorphous materials with otherwise unattainable properties, and control of non-equilibrium processing techniques, as part of an overarching mission of fostering secure and reliable energy infrastructures that are environmentally and economically sustainable.

I hope I can add to the discussion by putting a slightly different spin on this.
There is no universal "right" - there is only right for you and right for your partners. For some people one person
all the ever need, both sexually and emotionally, for others it's not. That doesn't make any one point of view right or wrong. So I don't think that the concept is flawed form the start at all - what is flawed is to
ones partner to be exactly the same as you when it comes to desire or pleasure. If you are the same, then that's great.
If you have a need to have multiple sexual partners in your life, and that is part of your bottom-line - it's non-negotiable, then her needing you to only have sex with her and that being
bottom-line means that the two of you are basically incompatible and should stop wasting time beating yourselves up over it.
They say you should never enter into a relationship (or stay in one) where you are expecting your partner to change to make you happy, especially if that change is something that is fundamental to their make-up and desires. It sounds like she is expecting you to be sexually monogamous with her, and that you are expecting her to let you be with other people.
So, I think the first thing to do is for the two of you to sit down and work out whether these standpoints really are non-negotiable "bottom-lines" for you or not. If there is room for change, then work on it together. If there is not, recognize it, and go your separate ways.
(Edit to add: I have a real problem with the concept of "completing oneself" - if you see relationships as adding something to who you are, and people not being "enough" to "complete" you, then I think you are always going to be on a very rocky path.)

Decided: October 5, 1934.
MARY BUTLER, PLAINTIFF-RESPONDENT,v.RUDOLPH EBERSTADT, DEFENDANT-APPELLANT
On appeal from the Supreme Court.
For the respondent, Thomas P. McKenna (Theodore D. Parsons, of counsel).
For the appellant, Wall, Haight, Carey & Hartpence (John A. Hartpence, of counsel).
[113 NJL Page 570]
The opinion of the court was delivered by
BROGAN, CHIEF JUSTICE. The plaintiff below, Mary Butler, was awarded damages at the Monmouth County Supreme Court circuit for personal injuries received in an automobile accident. The defendant appeals from the judgment entered thereon.
From the record in this case, it appears that the plaintiff entered the service of the defendant on May 27th, 1931, as a cook. She testified she merely went to the home of the defendant on that day to prepare lunch because of the illness of the regular cook and that after lunch Mrs. Eberstadt, wife of the defendant, asked her if she would not continue her service for a few days and accompany the family of the defendant to the summer home on Long Island over Decoration Day. The plaintiff agreed and went to Long Island for the time requested and on Sunday, May 31st, on the return trip from Long Island, the defendant's automobile, driven by his chauffeur and carrying as passengers the plaintiff and three young children of the defendant as well as a nursemaid, collided with another machine on the Harrison-Kearny turnpike in Hudson county, New Jersey, as a result of which the plaintiff sustained serious injuries. Thereafter on September 12th, 1932, she brought this suit against the defendant, the employer, in the Supreme Court, for damages for the injuries received on the theory that her employment being, as she claimed, casual in character, afforded her a common law
[113 NJL Page 571]
action since she was outside that class of employes entitled to compensation under section 2 of our Employers' Liability act. Pamph. L. 1911, ch. 95, p. 134. Subsequently, on May 27th, 1933, four days before the time limit, fixed by that statute (supra) for the filing of claims for compensation, would have expired, a petition for compensation was filed by her in the compensation bureau. Obviously this course was pursued by the plaintiff as a measure of caution to keep alive her claim if it should be determined in the Supreme Court that she was a regular employe of the defendant and therefore entitled to compensation, as provided by the statute.
The defendant answered the petition filed in the compensation bureau and admitted that compensation was payable in the case. The defendant thereupon amended his answer already filed in the Supreme Court action, by annexing thereto a copy of the petition for compensation and a copy of his answer admitting that compensation should be paid and reiterated the defenses already pleaded that he was not liable for damages sustained by the plaintiff through any act or default, if any there was, on the part of the chauffeur, since they were fellow servants. The answer further averred that the plaintiff was a regular and not a casual employe, having been hired for a month at a fixed salary; that she was injured by an accident arising out of and in the course of her employment and that the provisions of the Employers' Liability act applied to her and that her claim should be sent to the compensation bureau for determination as to the amount of compensation.
When the case was reached for trial at the Monmouth Circuit the defendant moved that this common law action be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction, which motion was denied. This denial is presented as one of the grounds of appeal. It is also argued by the appellant that the trial court should, as a matter of law, at the end of the entire case, have ruled that the employment of the plaintiff was regular and not casual and that therefore the action should have been dismissed or a verdict directed for the defendant on this ground. Both these questions may be treated together. The trial court correctly
[113 NJL Page 572]
disposed of these motions. It is true that the compensation bureau, under the statute as supplemented (Pamph. L. 1918, ch. 149, p. 430, § 3), has sole jurisdiction to award compensation to an injured employe whose injury arose out of and in the course of the employment, in cases where the employment admittedly is or is determined by the bureau to be, regular, and this jurisdiction is exclusive. It is likewise true that the bureau was completely competent to determine this preliminary question, that is, whether the employment was regular or casual -- if the plaintiff had in the first instance come to that forum for a determination of that question and if her employment was casual, her petition would have been dismissed. Thereafter she would have the privilege of instituting suit in a law court if she wished.
In the bureau the referee, representing the commissioner of labor, is judge of both law and fact. In a common law court a jury determines the fact. The judge is powerless to do so. Therefore, as to a preliminary question of this character, the jurisdiction of the compensation bureau and a common law court is co-equal. Since then the plaintiff's cause of action depended upon the character of her employment, whether casual or regular, and that was a fact question, it follows that the court was without power, in limine, to dismiss the plaintiff's suit at law. Cf. Boyle v. Van Splinter, 101 N.J.L. 89.
As to the second question, that the trial court should, as a matter of law, at the end of the plaintiff's case or at the end of the entire case, have dismissed the action or directed a verdict for the defendant on that ground, viz., that the employment was regular, the appellant relies upon the statute (supplement, Pamph. L. 1918, supra) which provides that "the commissioner of labor" * * * shall have exclusive, original jurisdiction of all claims for compensation arising under the act to which this act is a supplement," &c. This provision does not support the appellant's argument. It means this and only this ...

One of more than 100 bills awaiting Gov. Jay Nixon's signature would increase services for Missouri's deaf and blind community.
The bill requires the Missouri Commission for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing to provide grants to organizations meeting the needs of individuals who are deaf and blind. The Legislature will determine funding through its annual appropriations process, but grants cannot exceed $300,000, according to the legislation.
If Nixon signs the bill, the commission will be able to fund grants for support service providers (SSPs), trained sight guides who communicate audio and visual information to people who are deaf-blind. The assistance is useful for daily life tasks such as shopping, doctor appointments, job interviews and more.
The number of Missourians who are deaf-blind is not definite, Emily Fry, an information program specialist with the commission, said in an email. Many surveys don't consider blindness and deafness together, but she said a conservative estimate brings the total to 2,000-5,000 individuals.
In a February committee hearing, Opeoluwa Sotonwa, executive director of the Missouri Deaf and Hard of Hearing Commission, said SSPs give those who are deaf-blind greater opportunities for independence and the support necessary for them to "reach their full potential."
Larry Hoard, a 60-year-old Fulton man who is deaf and blind, also testified in favor of the bill at the committee hearing. He has been assisted by family and friends, who act as his SSPs, for purposes of transportation, walking and minimal communication assistance, he said in an email.
With the help of an SSP, Hoard was able to volunteer, shop, go to the library, exercise at the YMCA and go to a movie.
"I could be an active participant instead of a passive observer; I could help others instead of just receiving help; and I could be useful instead of a burden," he said.
Senate President Pro Tem Ron Richard and House Speaker Todd Richardson are signing the passed bills today. Those bills are anticipated to be delivered to the governor's office this week, said Scott Holste, Nixon's press secretary.
Earlier this month, Sotonwa told the News Tribune the commission would oversee the organizations it contracts with for SSPs. The commission's goal, he added, is to equally spread the services statewide.
"Most likely we anticipate working with independent living centers since they are located across the state," Sotonwa said. "(Organizations) would be able to hire (SSPs) and then we would be able to work with them."
More than 20 states have similar legislation, he said. Sotonwa expects the commission to collaborate with the state's Vocational Rehabilitation service to potentially hire unemployed individuals who are deaf as SSPs. In addition to state funding, he said the commission will seek federal funding to support the SSP program.

We found Villa Flora exceeded our expectations in every respect, a wonderful relaxed atmosphere and facilities with a superb job with the interior, have no hesitation in recommending Flora to our friends and family and look forward to returning in the near future. John & Pauline.
Thanks for a truly lovely holiday in Villa Agua, We all enjoyed it ! Andy Forth
Just to let you know we've had a wonderful holiday in Villa Aqua. Not a cloud to be seen for 14 days. Your villa is perfect and I will be telling all my friends about it. Allison Gibb
Thank your for a lovely holiday in Villa Flora. What was really nice was that you neighbours children's brought round some fairy cakes to share as it was one of their birthdays! If our friends and families asked we would recommend your villas. Louise Aston
Villa Agua is a fabulous home from home place to stay. The view from the rear patio and pool area is awesome, even better from the master bedroom balcony. There are two en-suite spacious bedrooms upstairs, a family bathroom and another spacious bedroom on the ground floor. The lounge diner and well equipped kitchen are also very spacious. All in all a fabulous place to stay. On arrival, you are welcomed by the friendly Debbie or, if they are in the country, Clare and John, the owners of Villa Agua. The surrounding area has much to offer. The nearest beach is 3 minutes drive or, 15 minutes walk away with two restaurants and beach bar. Argostoli, the capital of Kefalonia, is just 20 minutes drive away. If you decide to visit Kefalonia and stay at Villa Agua, you will NOT be disappointed.
Well, what a fabulous holiday! From the initial booking enquiry with Claire, right through to getting our car back at Gatwick, this truly was the most relaxing holiday we've had since our "pre-kid" days!!
Claire did everything for us. She booked the flights, she booked the hire car, she booked the airport parking. If I could, I would've asked her to do our packing aswell!!
So, down to the nitty gritty...the villa. It was everything we wanted in a holiday villa - it was comfortable, it was quiet, and it had everything we needed to keep everyone happy and make our week perfect.
We did do a bit of exploring during our week in Kefalonia....but not much! We went to Myrtos Beach (good for a look, but maybe not a whole day out), we had lunch in Assos (the most delicious freshly caught fish - actually harder to come by than you would think), but with kids we generally just went to the beach! We could've ventured far afield, but most days we ended up on Makris Gialos in the resort of Lassi - just a 10 minute drive from the villa. It's so family friendly that you really couldn't ask for much more, especially if you're only there for a week.
Claire & John were super helpful, recommending restaurants and days out. The Olive Tree restaurant is a must - if only to see the size of their mega pork chop!!!
If you've got any doubts about booking this villa, then push them quickly aside. It offers everything you could possibly want to make your holiday a success. See you next year Claire & John!
Superb villa with fantastic pool and views of the Ionion sea.
We visited the beautiful beach of Avithos with clear warm waters at 6pm in the evening to avoid the scorching sun! which was a 15 min walk or 5 mins by car.
Two good Tavernas were located at the back of beach- sunsets were stunning.
A really chilled holiday away from the crowds.
Thank you John and Claire.
A fantastic Villa in a great location. As described with an outstanding pool. Claire and John have put a lot of thought and effort in to the property and it easily measured up to expectations. We have stayed in a number of villas across asia and europe and this is up with the best.
Many thanks to Claire for providing local knowledge on beaches, restaurants and places to go. We were spoilt for choice.
We have recently returned from our second wonderful holiday on the beautiful island of Kefalonia. This holiday was made particularly memorable thanks to beautiful Villa Agua, which is located in a quiet, pretty village and has stunning views overlooking a valley down to the sea. The villa is modern, spacious, beautifully furnished, light, airy and very comfortable. An excellent en suite to every bedroom, and a modern well equipped kitchen that caters for every need. We chose to shop in the fabulous fruit, meat and fish markets of Argostoli (look out for the turtles!) and eat our lovely fresh food, washed down with a bottle of Robola on the balcony as we watched the sun go down. The pretty garden contains a good sized infinity pool which was regularly cleaned and a joy to swim in at the end of a hot day! We hired a car for the duration of our stay (2 weeks) to make the most of all the island has to offer. The beaches are wonderful, Myrtos and Antisammos being our favourites, but we also spent a few days at Avithos beach which is 5 minutes down the road from Villa Agua, is sandy, has beautiful clear sea and two delightful tavernas. Claire, who owns the villa and stays on the island during the summer is delightful and could not have been more helpful - we will definitely return!
Fiona and I visited kefalonia on our honeymoon many years ago and wanted to retrace our steps. Agua was a wonderful base for us - the villa is beautiful and the views are simply lovely. Every detail of the villa and the owners discreet attention exceeded our expectations - in fact we were introduced to some off the tourist track experiences - we will be back and will introduce our friends to kefalonia soon. thank you so much Claire and john
Kaligata village is located in the Livathos region of the island. The villa is unique luxury offering superb breath taking views of the valley and the Ionian Sea. Surrounded by olive groves, vineyards and cypress trees, it is just a short 5 minute drive away from the beautiful sandy beaches of Avithos, St Hellis and Ammes, Avithos being the nearest beach, around 15 minutes by walking. The nearby villages of Lakithra and Svoronata also offer a number of local taverns, mini-markets and bakery. In addition to this the villa is just a 10 minute drive away from the capital of the island Argostoli, which offers a cosmopolitan atmosphere with many good restaurants and bars. The area offers much historical interest with the house where Lord Byron stayed in the nearby village of Kourkoumelata with a statue in his honour.
The weather in Kefalonia is very warm from May to October, see our website for chart.
Other Activities: 10 pin bowling

Things have been noisy on the back four acres this week. PennDOT is working on the steel-grate bridge that crosses Mill Creek on Eagle Point Road. What this means for those who drive to Fleur-de-Lys Farm Market by way of New Smithville is a detour. Instead of turning onto Eagle Point Road, follow the detour signs which will take you out Long Lane to Route 222. Turn right at the light, and then take the first right onto Hottenstein Road and keep driving until you see 440 Hottenstein Road. For those of you coming from Kutztown on Eagle Point Road, clear road to Fleur-de-Lys Farm.
The hammering, grinding, scraping, and spraying in the tarp tunnel encasing the bridge are enough to jiggle the teeth out of a woodchuck, so just think what the sound is doing to the hens on the hill. They may lay scrambled eggs. And imagine working inside that plastic tunnel in this heat!
Along with eggs this week, we have elderberries, blackberries, cucumbers, summer squash, peppers, tomatoes, potatoes, garlic, shallots, kale, chard, basil, dill, assorted herbs and flowers, and peace and quiet after 5 p.m., when the road crew goes home. Laurie Lynch

When first thinking about the over the knee boots – trend one major question comes in mind: How to pair them without looking overdressed? Celebrities as Miranda Kerr show us the answer: with a jumper mini dress! The sophisticated look of the over the knee boots is softened by knitted and woolen materials, that we love for fall styles anyway. It is a cozy go-to outfit with a contrast of the elegant attitude of the boots and the cozyness of the jumper dress. These two make the perfect couple.. It's a love affair!

I decided to break in the new sandals by going to Penarth today, I walked to the Leckwith retail area to get a bus, and ended up running the last 100 yards, as a suitable bus was queued behind cars at the Sloper road traffic lights. I got a few bemused looks from passengers, and an oversized passenger my age commented with amazement about how fit I was. I run with apprehension that I will become breathless, or my legs turn to lead, or I trip over on these little sprints, and am relieved to get away with it. Not what I'd call fit. Although there were times past when I was overweight that I couldn't have done that. Losing a couple of stone has been very good for me, losing another stone is proving to be much harder. If I did there'd be no excuse for not returning to jogging.
I had a panini and a cuppa for lunch on the pier, took some photos, and as the tide was in, walked back to Cardiff Bay over Penarth Head and across the barrage, busy with crowds of people taking the air, enjoying the sunshine. I'd taken a top coat as it was cold when I left, but mid afternoon I had to carry it looped over the shoulder strap of my camera bag, it was so warm. A number six Bay Car bus arrived just as I reached the Dr Who Experience centre, so I took it into the city centre, and went shopping for a new camera - another camera, yes another camera.
I want something to take on the cruise with me that is as range capable as my DSLR with telephoto lens, but lighter and handier in use. I've had my eye on a Sony HX400 since it first came out last year, as it has a 50x zoom lens, more reach than my much used HX50 with only 30x zoom. Being on a river boat for eight days, I am anticipating there'll be as many interesting if slightly remote details I'd like to record as well as magnificent big vistas, especially wildlife. Anyway, there were no HX400s in stock, but there was a refurbished HX300 at £189 - quite a bargain! And I think it will be a lot easy to control for those long zoom shots without need for monopod or tripod support, to my mind, these are unnecessary clutter when travelling. So often, interesting things glimpsed need quick responses and sharp shooting, and a lighter camera with a real viewfinder too, should make a little difference on the journey.
Owain came over for supper and an evening of chat over a bottle of Nuit St Georges Village he'd acquired from Lidl's, a really refined Bourgogne Pinot Noir, a favourite favourite of ours since our Geneva years, until the Genevois Pinot Noir began to be produced with much improved quality and lost its rough edges. I wonder what the Genevois equivalent to Gemischter Satz might be?

don't you just LOVE seeing all that blue sky?!
this last week was quite a difficult one for the mister and i. with all of his studying, school work and internships we didn't get to see each other as much as we would have liked. so this weekend i was ready to keep him all to myself. but the sun was shining, and there was no way we could pass that up. saturday morning we slept in until eleven, grabbed some delicious crepes for brunch at the cutest outdoor restaurant, The Awful Waffle, played a little frisbee golf and hopscotch with some friends (yes, we are five), and ended the night with some yummy chinese food, late night tv watching and cuddles.
thank you saturday, we needed you!

Opening theatrically overseas
Nokia and Capcom announced that Resident Evil: Degeneration will be released on N-Gage later this year. N-Gage is a made-for-mobile games service available in compatible Nokia Nseries and other S60 3rd Edition devices from Nokia.
With gameplay optimized for N-Gage, including two separate play modes, plus multiple mission types and 3D quality graphics, Resident Evil: Degeneration is a cutting edge title that illustrates the unique capabilities of the N-Gage platform.
The game, part-based on the upcoming October theatrical release in Japan full-length CG motion picture of the same name, focuses on the release of a deadly virus by a terrorist at a US airport and follows series favourites Leon Kennedy and Claire Redfield, as they attempt to destroy the virus and prevent it from being dispersed across the country. Resident Evil: Degeneration is the first full-length CG motion picture from the Resident Evil series, widely considered to be the benchmark of the survival horror video game genre.
"The release of Resident Evil: Degeneration illustrates our dedication to N-Gage," says Takeshi Tezuka, general manager of Capcom's mobile Division. "We believe that the platform is an excellent home for some of our most famous franchises and our dedication to quality and creative thinking has seen us create a unique game with stunning visuals and in-depth game play, never before seen on the mobile."
A DVD release date in the U.S. for Resident Evil: Degeneration has not been announced. Sony Pictures Home Entertainment previously stated it will arrive this winter.

Shit! Why did I ever give Tessa that key? Why?
I looked around quickly for someplace to hide. Being in my apartment, I was kind of out of options, but that didn't stop me from trying. I quickly darted to the glass door of the balcony and slid it open, hopping onto the other side and slamming it shut in front of me.
I watched as the three of them emerged into the room, and instantly located me standing on the balcony. Ben marched over to the door and I held it shut as he pulled on the handle, trying to pry it open.
I pulled against him but he was stronger. To my horror, he began to pull it open.
Trying to get a better grip on it, my hands slipped off the handle and he won. In one swift movement he had the door open and soon was standing next to me on the balcony with the door shut beside us.
We had barely locked eyes for a moment before I panicked. I reached for the door handle, wrapping my fingers around it, but he grabbed my wrist and held it tightly.
I struggled with total fruitlessness, still hoping against hope that I would not have to face him and deal with… whatever this was. I didn't want to confront him or any of it! I just wanted to hide.
But with him here, staring down at me intently, I knew I couldn't.
Sighing I looked up at him through my lashes.
I couldn't tear my eyes away from the two of them.
Did they not see how perfect they were together? I could tell. Even though all they were doing was staring at each other.
"Coffee?" Tessa asked brightly.
I turned to her and smiled, "Yeah… I've got a feeling we're going to be up for a while"
She smiled and I followed her into the kitchen, in there was another window that allowed us to see out onto the balcony.
Tessa went to it and grabbed the curtain– earning a glare from Felicia as Ben held onto her shoulders staring her down. She smiled and gave her friend the 'thumbs up' before she pulled the curtain across and blocked out the view.
She began making two coffee's in the kitchen that she seemed to know well while I sighed, leaning against the counter, "What do you think's gonna happen?" I asked curiously.
I so wanted this to work out. Not just for Ben, but for Felicia as well.
From everything I had seen, she was a fantastic girl whose happiness it seemed, was well past due.
And Ben was a friend. I wanted him to be happy, and I'd never seen him more euphoric than when he was simply speaking about her.
Tessa rolled her eyes, "If they're not making out in two minutes, then they'll be doing something worse" she promised as she poured two steaming mugs.
I laughed as she handed me mine, I seriously loved how this girl could look at life with such humour. She seemed to have a talent for defusing situations.
"Well, then, we'll just have to wait and see, won't we?" I asked as I took a small sip.
"Yeah! We have front row seats" she smiled before she turned thoughtful, "I wonder if Felicia has any popcorn" she mused aloud before she turned on her heel and began rummaging through the cupboards.
I stared into his eyes and he glared down at me, his hands on my forearms holding me still. As if he still thought I could run.
Oh how I wanted to! I was downright terrified! He seemed to notice this and let out a deep breath, letting his hands fall and taking a step backwards.
"Sorry" he said, "I'm sorry I scared you" he said, his voice rung with sincerity that I didn't, couldn't, doubt, "I'm sorry I keep seeming to pop up at the worst moments possible" he said.
I couldn't disagree with him there.
He sighed, "I'm sorry I took your first kiss"
Bloody Tessa! She was a dead women.
But that thought didn't comfort me as I stood on a balcony nine stories up in the air, yet I felt so very small.
"I'm sorry I freaked out and I'm just… sorry" he seemed to struggle with his words as he turned to look at the Melbourne skyline and crossed his arms over the railing of my balcony, "I'm sorry for everything that I've fucked up" he sighed.
I watched him for a moment, utterly confused, "why are you apologizing?" I asked, he turned around to look at me in confusion, "you didn't do anything wrong" I said simply, I stared at the ground as I took a hesitant step forward, to stand next to him on the balcony, "it was my fault for confusing acting with reality" I said.
Something about this seemed to anger him as he sighed, letting his head lull over the balcony before he looked up at me sideway, "I wasn't acting" he said quietly.
Each one of those words seemed to sink in, branding itself into my skin.
I felt as if the wind had gotten knocked out of me as I took an involuntary step back, "Oh" was all I could say.
He words didn't make sense because they were impossible.
How could he feel that way about me? Plain old me.
Did he not know that disaster followed me? That anyone who got closed to me died?
I felt breathless as I looked anywhere but his face, "yes you should be apologizing for that" I muttered, to him or myself I didn't know.
He stood up, seeming to decide something he approached me, slowly, cautiously so not to scare me, but I was already terrified and quite unable to move even if I had wanted to.
His hands gripped my upper arms as he stepped closer, "Your right" he said quietly, "I'm sorry" he whispered tenderly, "I'm sorry that you're the most amazing girl I've ever met" he said.
I turned away as tears stung at my eyes; he turned his head slightly trying to keep my gaze as I looked away, "I'm sorry that from the moment I heard you sing I couldn't get you out of my head" he said quietly.
I sniffed as the tears came anyway; I looked down at the ground as they rolled down my cheeks, splashing onto the floor.
I felt his forehead press to mine, his hot breath tickling my face, "but most of all I'm sorry" he began pulling me tighter and himself closer to me, "that I fell in love with you" he whispered.
A sob racked through my chest and I sucked in a shaky breath.
I couldn't believe him. Not even for a second.
I had spent too many years impacting ice around my heart, keeping it together after it had been so thoroughly shattered after my parents' death.
I couldn't do it. I couldn't let him in.
It was then that something strange happened to me.
I heard a voice in my ear, one that didn't belong to Ben, or Tessa.
One that was no longer on earth.
It was the voice of my Mother, whispering two small words "Be Happy"
And just like that I realized, I could be happy. Happiness was something I had denied myself ever since my parent's death because I was afraid the moment I was happy, it would get taken away from me again. And that was something I couldn't survive.
But in locking my heart away, I had lost it. I'd lost my voice, my drive, my will for life.
And now, it all came flooding back to be because I was loved.
I had loved but for so long, had never been loved.
Now I had both.
Without thinking, I reached up and placed my hand on the back of Ben's neck before I pulled him down to kiss me.
It wasn't like the first.
This time there were butterflies flapping around in my stomach as my heart seemed to inflate so much that it wanted to burst through my ribs.
Ben seemed shocked, but it didn't take him long to wrap his arms around my back and pull me closer. This time I let my mouth open, no longer afraid as he deepened the kiss, his tongue massaging mine.
It sent shock waves through me and shivers down my spine, but I wasn't afraid.
For the first time in so long- I wasn't afraid.
Loud screaming from inside startled me and I broke away, our lips parting with an audible wet sound as we both stared inside.
Anna and Tessa were both jumping up and down, with smiles the size of Texas, screaming.
Tessa even had popcorn which she was throwing up in the air.
Bitch! She better be clean that up.
I laughed, placing my hand to my wet lips as the two girls starting dancing together.
Ben chuckled, pulling me close he pressed his forehead to mine once again, "does that mean you love me back?" he asked quietly.
I smiled as I turned back to him, "why yes, yes it does" I said.
I only had time to see a breathing-takingly happy smile before his lips crashed down on my own again.
I smiled against his lips as I felt his hand tighten around my back and lift me up into the air.
But I already felt like I was floating.

"We're all big kids and we all love to have fun," said Bryan Hinson, who organized the expo.
Perry Airfield and Racetrack was full of toys on Sunday for an RC expo.
"They're just going to give a little display of RC trucks and airplanes," said Todd Troutt, an RC Enthusiast.
"We've got a bunch of cars, we've got a bunch of truck and crawlers for them to try out," said Hinson.
These aren't matchbox cars or paper airplanes, but high flying, fast-paced remote control vehicles.
A bunch of self-described big kids are behind it all.
"We have a club, Big Kid RC Club on Facebook. And so we have over 350 members, and we built the track through the club," said Hinson.
"It's relaxing, even though they crash it's relaxing," said Troutt.
These enthusiasts have been working with RCs for decades. While showing off, they were also on hand to answer questions and teach onlookers how it's done. So I decided to test my skills.
As an amateur, I had a lot of questions.
After a few close calls, I eventually got the hang of it. And most importantly, the plane landed in one piece.
"It's just a good time, people outta come out and check us out,"said Troutt. "It's fun."

January 2, 1968
Vance Van ALLEN
The opinion of the court was delivered by: GASCH
GASCH, District Judge.
This matter came on for trial by the Court, defendant having waived trial by jury in open Court after consultation with counsel. Upon consideration of the evidence submitted, the Court finds that on or about March 29, 1967, defendant and another forced the complaining witness, Harry Jetter, into his automobile, a new 1967 Dodge Dart, took his keys and each drove the automobile on various streets of the District of Columbia without the owner's permission.
During the course of the drive, which lasted several hours, the complaining witness was forced to lie on the back seat. The defense to the UUV charge that the owner of the car accompanied defendant on the drive is of no validity under these circumstances. The complaining witness was struck several times and his gold wristwatch taken by defendant. Finally, the automobile was driven into Richardson Court, near 4th and Florida Avenue, N.W., where it was followed by a Police scout car. The other man quickly jumped out and disappeared. The defendant got out followed by the complaining witness, who called to the Police: "Get him, he robbed me." Defendant stopped while the complaining witness told what had happened. Thereupon he was searched by the officer and the gold wristwatch found.
The defense contends that the seizure of the watch preceded the arrest and therefore was unlawful. Even if the seizure preceded the full revelation of the facts to the officer, as the defense contends, an arrest at the point of the shout of Jetter to get him, he robbed me, would have been a valid arrest. See Trimble v. United States, 125 U.S.App.D.C. 173, 369 F.2d 950 (1966). The seizure of the watch under these circumstances was proper.
The precise point at which an arrest occurs depends on the surrounding circumstances. Bailey v. United States, 128 U.S. App. D.C. 354, 389 F.2d 305, D.C.Cir., decided December 14, 1967; Fuller v. United States, D.C.Cir., No. 19,532, decided November 27, 1967; Hicks v. United States, 127 U.S. App. D.C. 209, 382 F.2d 158 (D.C.Cir.1967); Kennedy v. United States, 122 U.S.App.D.C. 291, 353 F.2d 462 (1965); Seals v. United States, 117 U.S.App.D.C. 79, 325 F.2d 1006 (1963).
In the circumstances of this case, the testimony of the officer that defendant was not free to leave while the complaining witness was telling his story is of critical importance. Arrest having been consummated, the search and seizure pursuant thereto was lawful. The watch, Government's exhibit 1, is received in evidence and defendant is found guilty of Count 1, unauthorized use of a vehicle, and Count 2, robbery.
