Missed taking photos three out of seven days this week :( To make up for a lack of photos for Project 365, at the end I'll share some unusual things that have happened this weekend.
The rains are late coming again this year so the lake is getting lower and lower as you can see in this photo...
As we slowly move forward with buying the lot, we're thinking ahead to what needs to be done. Especially after the hole-in-the-wall fiasco, putting up a fence will be the number one priority. Happened to think that maybe we could buy used fencing that just needs to be cleaned up and painted, so we stopped at a compraventa (a place that buys and sells used furniture, building materials and so on). While Ivan talked to the owner I was wandering around and came across this uber cute old TURQUOISE agitator...
My original idea didn't work out for the nightstand-turned-side-table -- instead of using the two Walmart baskets in the space left by the missing drawer, I found one big basket that fits in perfectly. The two baskets had leather handles that stuck up too far and got in the way of the drawer on top. I'm much happier with the one big basket :)
STUFF. Papers and books are usually spread out all around his chair.
I found the large basket at a store in town called Wishful. It's a interesting/odd combination of housewares and toys. On one side you're likely to find all kinds of decorative items for the house as well as dishes, kitchen utensils and silk flowers. On the other side it's like a mini Toys R Us.
I'm still getting used to shopping here and how you can only find certain things at certain kinds of stores. In the U.S. you can find pretty much anything you need at big stores like Walmart, Target or Meijers. But here if I want band-aids, I HAVE to go to a pharmacy. If I need a garden hose I HAVE to go to a ferreteria (hardware store). Yes, we do have a Walmart in a town about half an hour away and I can get pretty much anything I need there. BUT we don't go to Cordoba that often so usually it's necessary to visit a variety of local stores to get everything on my shopping list.
Okay, on to the odd happenings...
We woke in the middle of the night to hear water dripping...the tank on top the roof was overflowing. Not much we could do in the dark so we eventually just went back to sleep. But first thing this morning Ivan hauled a ladder up to the roof to check things out. He was more than a little startled when he pulled the top off the tank and saw a head in the water! Someone with a warped sense of humor had used the head from a child-size mannequin as the float on the water tank fill valve. It was a boy buoy! LOL Unfortunately he didn't have the camera with him. Wouldn't that have made a great photo for Project 365?!
This evening we got a text message from a friend asking for help. She had gone away for the weekend and left the dog in her bedroom, which she locked. No problem except she forgot to leave the key with her teenage kids! So she asked if Ivan could pick the lock and let the dog out. This is not something we covered in missionary orientation :)
As they say, the greatest ability for a missionary is FLEXability!

I know they look like enamel bowls, but I'm afraid they're not the real deal, although they are metal likely painted with enamel, so if you're not going to be too pedantic about it I suppose we could call them enamel! But I still really like these bowls, despite the fact that they're cheap and cheerful (you can almost see the square outline where the flower stickers were stuck on!) , and aren't going to last nearly as long as proper enamelled bowls. It's really the colours that appealed to me – they're not colours I've really seen before on enamel bowls, and they're really rich, deep colours – so enticing!
I'm not quite sure what you would do with these bowls (they're pretty large!). I don't know if I'd recommend using them as dog bowls as they might not last that long, although I could be wrong. You could also use them for serving a large salad when you're hosting Christmas lunch for your entire extended family, or when your niece asks you if she can get married at your house! Who knows! Hopefully somebody out there is a bit more imaginative than me and can find a use for these beautiful bowls!
Dimensions: Each bowl measures 12cm deep x 48cm in diameter
NB: We're overseas until the 14th July, so unfortunately there will be a delay in posting/couriering items until we're back
Dimensions: Each bowl measures cm deep x cm in diameter

March 16, 1814
THIS was an appeal from the sentence of the United States Circuit Court for the district of New Hampshire,The material facts of the case were as follow:
The ship St. Lawrence, Silas Webb master, was captured, on the 20th of June 1813, by the private armed vessel America, and, with her cargo, libelled as prize, in the District Court of New Hampshire. On the proceedings which were had there, it appeared that the St. Law rence, owned by Robert Dickey of New York, and Hugh Thompson of Baltimore, arrived at Liverpool from Sweden in April 1813, with a cargo of iron and deals. In the month of May 1813, the agent of Dickey and Thomson entered into a contract for the sale of the St. Lawrence, with the house of Ogden, Richards and Selden of Liverpool, the contract to be ratified or disaffirmed by Dickey and Thompson, and the bill of sale to be executed by them, in case of affirmance, to Andrew Ogden and James Heard of New York, or either of them. On the 5th of May 1813, a license was granted by the privy council of Great Britain to Thomas White of London, and others, permitting them to export, direct to the United States, an enumerated cargo in the St. Lawrence, provided she cleared out before the last day of that month. On the 30th of May 1813, she sailed from Liverpool for the United States, with the cargo specified in the license. Mr. Alexander McGregor and his family were passengers on board.
Upon the return of the monition in the District Court, Andrew Ogden interposed a claim, in behalf of himself and McGregor, to the ship and part of the cargo. He also claimed another part of the cargo as his sole property. He likewise interposed a claim in favor of Selah Strong and Son–of John Whitten–of the firm of Howard, Phelps & Co.–of Abraham and George Smedes–of Peter and Ebenezer Irving & Co.–of Henry Van Wart–of Irving and Smith–of Jabez Harrison–of Hugh R. Toler–and of Thomas C. Butler. This claim was an affidavit of Mr. Ogden, in which he swore that he had not a full knowledge of the concerns of all the persons for whom he claimed, but verily and fully believed that many of the said goods on board the St. Lawrence were sent in payment of debts due, previous to the war, to several of the persons for whom he claimed. This claim was filed on the 17th of August, 1813.
William Penniman of Baltimore, also interposed a claim for five chests of merchandize, which he swore were purchased for him by John Barnet of London, prior to the war, with funds which he had in England eighteen months before the declaration of war, and in pursuance of orders given by him nine months previous to that event. He also swore that he had at Baltimore, the original invoice of the purchase of said goods, and other documentary evidence to prove the aforesaid fact.
There was also a claim of the master for two cases and five trusses of merchandize, and six bolts of russia duck.
In none of these claims was there a designation of the marks or numbers of the casks, bales, or cases which belonged to the different parties for whom the property was claimed.
The master, in answer to the 12th standing, interrogatory, said, that for the names of the respective laders, he referred to the bills of lading. That the goods were mostly, if not all, consigned 'to order.' That the goods were to be delivered to order, at such place as the owners or consignees should appoint; but that he did not know what interest any of the consignees or the shipper might have in the goods.
In answer to the 16th interrogatory, the captain stated that his letter bags, two in number, had been taken possession of, and sent to the custom house: and that, as to any letter he had, directed to the consignees or owners, he had done what he had a right to do; and that all his other papers had been forcibly taken away.
By Mr. McGregor's answer to the 9th interrogatory, it appeared that he was interested one half part in the ship; that his sole object in becoming interested in the ship was that of returning to the United States; that he also owned one half of the copperas and of the earthen ware on board, shipped by Ogden, Richards and Selden, and, as he believed, one half of the coal, but that, as to the last article, he was not positive, no invoices of said goods having been delivered to the deponent.
In relation to the vessel, Mr. McGregor deposed, that the only document relative to the sale of the ship, he believed to be a letter to the former owners from their agent, requesting them to make a bill of sale transferring said ship to Andrew Ogden and James Heard, or either of them, which he gave to Andrew Ogden.
It appeared further, from the examination of Mr. McGregor, that he was born in Scotland, was naturalized in the United States in 1795, had lived, the last seven years, in Liverpool, and was returning in the St. Lawrence, with his family, to the United States.
The goods claimed by Ogden as his sole property were shipped by the house of Ogden, Richards and Selden. The two gentlemen last named resided at Liverpool.
The District Court condemned the St. Lawrence and all the cargo, except the parts claimed by McGregor and the master. Both parties appealed from this decree to the Circuit Court, where the ship and whole cargo were condemned. From this decree the Claimants appealed to the Supreme Court, where the cause was argued by IRVING and WEBSTER for the Claimants, and PITMAN for the captors.
IRVING, for all the Claimants except McGregor ...

Real-time, real opportunity: overhauling real-time payments
Posted: 3 April 2017 | Ross Jones (BNY Mellon) | No comments yet
Ross Jones, Product Line Manager, Global Payments, Treasury Services, BNY Mellon discusses the fast-moving real-time payments environment and how technology is fuelling an overhaul of the way in which we transact.
Real-time payments initiatives are gaining traction, driven by new technological developments, customer expectations and evolving regulatory requirements. A growing number of countries in regions across the globe have implemented, or are planning to implement, their own systems to facilitate instant domestic transactions. 2017 is set to be a particularly eventful year in the realm of real-time payment developments, with Australia's New Payments Platform (NPP) launching in the second half of the year, and the US Real-Time Payment (RTP) initiative due to be introduced in May.
The Clearing House's (TCH) real-time payments initiative will be the first significant change to core US payment platforms since the arrival of the Automated Clearing House (ACH) in the 1970s. With the global payments landscape evolving faster than ever before, RTP will leverage new technology capabilities in order to cater to today's fast-paced digital lifestyles, providing consumers and businesses with instant payments, 24/7/365 service and reduced costs.
Furthermore, both the payment originator and the beneficiary will have the benefit of immediate confirmation of payment and notification of receipt (as opposed to receiving an end-of-day file, for instance). This enhanced transparency and insight into reliable, up-to-the-minute liquidity positions will be of huge benefit in terms of cash management and reconciliation. In fact, the introduction of real-time payments could alter the very culture of US payments, creating a shift in terms of how and when consumers and businesses choose to transact. The restriction of business hours and cut-off times will become a thing of the past, while the speed of payments will be particularly useful for urgent or 'last-minute' payments albeit with an initial limit of $25,000. Real-time payments can also speed up value chains – quicker receipt of payments means goods can be despatched sooner.
The next step
While such systems are transforming domestic payments, the need to apply similar capabilities to cross-border payments is of equal importance; albeit considerably more challenging. Change of such scale requires standardisation and interoperability, and although the domestic infrastructures introduced by individual countries may share common characteristics – for example, round-the-clock operation and instant clearing confirmation – the intricacies of clearing and settlement vary from system to system. This fragmentation is therefore an obstacle to applying instant capabilities to international payments.

BRADY, Neb. (AP) — Authorities have identified two people killed when a sport utility vehicle rolled after running off a highway in western Nebraska's Lincoln County.
The accident was reported at 11:10 p.m. Tuesday about three miles east of Brady on U.S. Highway 30. The Lincoln County Sheriff's Office says the westbound SUV ran off the roadway and rolled after the driver overcorrected, throwing all three occupants.
The Sheriff's Office says 36-year-old Jason Bartels and 33-year-old Rebecca Bartels, both of Brady, died from their injuries. Thirty-one-year-old Kara Johnson, of Brady, was critically injured and flown to a Denver hospital for treatment.
The Sheriff's Office says alcohol consumption appears to be a factor in the accident. None of the three was wearing a seat belt.

Gettin closer to 3 am. I have not slept yet. I don't get it is because of this homework about Machine Intelligence and Robotics that drains my mind, or another thing? Today, or tonight, actually some of my cells within my body are transforming into something i forget from Biology class in high school. They are regenerating, splitting, and the old ones die.Well i will be 19 in three hours, because my mum said i was born at 7 in the morning. Yesterday, i felt like this day would never come because it was so quite, since i am not famous and well known, i was so sure that today is not my birthday. But well the day has been coming and no one can deny that today is the birthday of me and all of other people those were born on the same day like mine. It is completely unbelievable that i have been being through my life for 19 years until people know me as me today. But at the moment, right now, im feeling so regret about my 19 years life.
About 19 years ago, my mum was feeling something kicked her stomach from the inside, trying to survive just because she wanted me to be born and see a much brighter world than the world in her womb. They named me a name that i have told you in the older post. They scenario-ed me to be a leader by giving that name. May they prayers come true.
Within 19 years, i dont think i have done something useful for people, and it is something that makes me so awful. When i saw and heard that so many guys in the same age with me or even younger had done so many big things in their life. Why were i born inti this world? and i always remember that God never makes anything without any specific purpose, so i think i have to do something for my life and make myself useful for others. I dont want to just study and read history, i want to make the story itself, and i am still lookin for the way how. My birthday is right around the corner, and i have not got any direction yet about my life, im clueless, blind, paralyzed, and dusty.
Yesterday, my sister tagged a pic of my birthday cake. It was so great that they remember my birthday and celebrated it there, when i didnt feel anything here. I had a dream to get out of my old neigbourhood and get to somewhere abroad. But right now, im suddenly missing them, missing all of the moment there and all of my laziness, and how my grandma would rub my head, give advice, and pray for me with the old style. Or exactly previous year, when i was thrown into a filthy pond by my classmates right on the day of the final exam, im missing them singing happy birthday, chasing each other so that everybody gets wet.
Dudes it is my birthday but actually it is not really about birthday, it is about living out the dreams…. on this day i have to decide what it is i want to do with my life from tomorrow on., and time's running out. It is an another year for me, and i know it will be harder. Something about my life is i want to be a lantern, light, or even Severus Snape's patronus. Light lets me see something thou its dark. sometimes, Light can either warm you or burn you. Sometimes i can warm people around me when in another time i can be so outburst and explosive. I want to be the light that can guide people to get out of the dark, show they the way the have to be through, but i cant read the future, i dunno what would i be. as long as i can choose, i wanna be the light that can benefit you.
I know i have to do something for my life. I have to plan it, before i blow another candle out, before i enter another year. There is something to be said about the power of a dream, take the risk and it pays off.

Is actress Liza Soberano jealous?
This was the question posed by multi-awarded talk show host Boy Abunda in his late-night talk show "Tonight With Boy Abunda" over ABS-CBN after Soberano was criticized by her fans who called her screen partner Enrique Gil her best friend .
"Hindi kaya may konting selos? Kasi sinabi ni Hailee Steinfeld 'I will marry this guy' (referring to Gil)," said Abunda. The King of Talk narrated how Soberano was criticized by fans.
Abunda said that it all started when Hollywood star Hailee Steinfeld visited the country to promote her debut album Haiz recently.
In one of those interviews, Steinfeld was asked to choose among the three Kapamilya heartthrobs Daniel Padilla, James Reid and Enrique Gil based on photos.
Steinfeld said in jest that she would choose Gil because he is cute. "I would marry this guy."
Later, Soberano identified Gil as her best friend in one of her captions. Fans of LizQuien, who believe that the stars of the prime time series "Dolce Amore" are more than friends, didn't like the "best friend" tag.
Soberano reacted and said in Twitter: "I can't believe people still get mad for me saying he's my best friend? Is that a bad thing?"
"Calling your best friend isn't necessarily you're friend-zoning them. Things can develop, right?" Soberano added.
Abunda said: "So what is this? Hindi ko po alam nahihilo na ako. All i know is I love LizQuien."

Welcome to the 2shopper blog! Where you'll find unique gifts, creative decor and fun goods for awesome living.
As you can probably guess, Baby Day on May 2nd is a day devoted to babies. Although the origins of this holiday are not entirely known, use this day as an excuse to spoil your little one with these five gifts that'll make them feel even more loved than they already are.
Make bath time fun time with the Kids Bath Sponge. These cute little critters will bring smiles to your baby's face when it is time to get nice and clean. Pick from the seal, frog, or duck, and use these soft friends to create lots and lots of suds! Bath time just became your baby's new favorite time of the day.
Your baby can't even walk yet and already he or she can feel like an artist. The Spraycan Baby Rattle was designed to resemble the real spraycan that graffiti artists use, but this one is completely safe for the little toddler. Just give it to them and they'll have so much fun giving this spraycan-shaped rattle a shake.
Keep your baby's bottles nice and warm on Baby Day with the Insulate Baby Bottle Warmer. Designed with an adorable cow print, simply wrap the cover around the bottle, activate its warming gel with the BEND tab, and you'll be all ready to feed the little one with a nice warm bottle.
There's nothing worse for your little baby than when their teeth are coming in. Help soothe some of that discomfort with the Gum Me Teethers. These cute and colorful teethers come shaped like a bear, fish, or worm, so pick which one you like and let your baby get to teething.
Make feeding time even more enjoyable with the addition of these Feed Me Baby Spoons. The friendly frog and happy duck will be your child's new best pals as you use these animal-shaped spoons to feed them all that yummy baby food.

Customer Quote of the Week
" I remain skeptical about cloud based software "
Maybe you should be more skeptical of standard convention?
Ponder this quote by motivational speaker Tama Kieves "The worship of convention will never lead to astonishment". Skepticism in moderation and with the right motive is healthy. However, skepticism driven from a reluctance to leave our comfort zones in my opinion is equivalent to self-imprisonment or intentional delusion.
I am pretty comfortable challenging convention (yes, sometimes to a fault). In the past few weeks it has paid off. In this blog I will share my latest "astonishment" in regard to how "cloud computing" is especially valuable to small business. Some of the "cloud computing" based apps that are exploding around us to integrate completely different "cloud based" software platforms and databases with no programming skill required is simply awesome.
continued from e-mail / blog intro...
Quick refresher for those still fuzzy on what "the cloud" means: Cloud based or web based software services, also described as SaaS software (Software as a Service), allow us to operate software from any computer, anywhere in the world, whereever there is internet access. No expensive back end IT infrastructure of servers, networking, and individual license downloads or long product keys to maintain for individual computers. No more need to do individual computer configuration updates, troubleshooting, compatibility checks, etc. to accommodate the individual license. The software largely updates itself centrally not by an individual user. You update the software in Texas, your colleague updates it in Oregon, you all are instantly on the same sheet of music. All this in itself is pretty cool.
Sure there are some different risks that must be managed, but the economic benefit of this flexibility and the reduced cost overall, far outweigh these risks. At the end of this blog post you will find a top ten cloud based software selection checklist we made to help your skepticism or concerns with going with a particular SaaS, Cloud, or web based software provider.
Three cool stories with the best for last ...
Story 1 (last week): So last week, I was getting frustrated trying to efficiently update some project plans for a few different clients. The project plan strategy changes constantly with my clients with an amazing amount of details to keep up with. I played with Microsoft Project and Excel as tools to assist with managing my "jobs" and bidding out work to apprentices, marketing specialists, etc. I was saving and sending this stuff out, back and forth, to three different types of stakeholders, with different information needs, countless times, and well - uggggh.
I decided to search the web for "best web based project management software". FYI - when I did the search Microsoft Project did not come up once.... I couldn't believe the options and in many cases how much capability you can get for free or for incredible prices. I actually signed up for about 3 different web based software platforms, and seem to have this habit as I try different software out. I always go with the one that is easiest for me to use instantly, resolves my immediate challenge at hand, and of course, the software with the lowest cost - which includes the cost of my time.
What is nice, is that if you ensure that all your data is always exportable, you can "easily" (relative term) migrate your work to more capable software when your needs exceed that software's capacity (fyi - I did this with futuresimple.com Base CRM to Infusionsoft). The project management software I am using right now is Trello. OMG. What a beautifully built piece of software for both business and even personal use. Best of all, like Gmail, the standard version is free.
Check out what Trello does for me in under 24 hours: I now have it on all my families smart phones and each have a desktop link to their login. My daughters can argue or push back and forth their "Chore Card" assignments. I can update the shopping list from my computer and it updates real time on my daughters phone while she shops. For business, instantly my clients can see collateral we produce for them. I simply drag from my windows explorer the files onto the "task card" on our shared project management "Board". Members on the card can make comments directly on that card, edit, and update content. Members to the card can add or check off a checklist within that task card. Add a member by simply putting their e-mail in an "invite member" box.
Set-up / learn time? Maybe 5 minutes and one video. The rest was intuitive and a few quick google searches when I got stuck. FYI - Basecamp, the second project management software runner up is cool, but I think has hype momentum, but Trello, which has less hype, when you dig a little deeper had better reviews for user friendliness and the simple level of collaboration / project management I need.
The coolest part? The "open API" nature of most cloud or web based software.
Story 2 (last week): When a prospect is interested in working with G-Force, they become an opportunity in my Infusionsoft software. Within that opportunity description I start documenting the potential project plan. Wouldn't it be nice for when I mark in Infusionsoft that the opportunity has closed, it could automatically start a project plan in Trello?
So, I did a simple Google search for Infusionsoft and Trello to see what type of integrations might be out there - completely happy if there was none. Sure enough?!@# such an app exists!!@ I had heard of these bridging apps and the benefits of an "open API", but not really used one yet. I pretty much use software one at a time. I looked at three "bridge" providers. www.zapier.com, www.itduzzit.com, and www.cloudwork.com I met the Zapier guys at Infusioncon, they are well established, and once again, they had the cleanest and simplest user interface and went with them. In under 5 minutes folks, I had bridged the two pieces of software together for the goal I wanted to achieve. ^%$!@ : )
Story 3 (this week): This week, we are helping a client who uses a Woocommerce shopping cart to sell unlocked smartphones (these phones are as capable as the most powerful Samsung Android, but for like half the price - e-mail me if you want to know when her site goes live and when the phones will be available) but wants Infusionsoft to do the post sale follow-up, communication, and relationship development with her resellers and the manufacturer. Her awesome SEO & web developer and I, in under 10 minutes, after we had all the right payment IDs, logins, etc. together, wired the two pieces of software together. Again - OMG!!! Keep in mind neither of us are programmers.... This is the beauty of open API software platforms.
I have bragged about how Infusionsoft is truly customer centric and customer driven, but I have also bragged about their commitment to maintaining an Open API (which means they let other software plug-in to their database). Similar to the Apple App store, but even more open, you can check out the Infusionsoft marketplace (app store) here and Zapier integrations here (check out all the software they have tied to in the explore search box). Unlike old-school organizations like Microsoft, note how they are not trying to be all things to all people.
Remaining skeptical about web based software, and hanging on to standard convention, will hold you back from experiencing astonishing improved results. The valid risks driving some skepticism can be mitigated (see checklist below). This is the one time it will be ok to have your head in the clouds.
Top 10 Checklist for Picking a Cloud / Web Based Software Solution
1) Does the user interface look stupid simple to use to get done what you want? It doesn't matter if they have the most powerful functionality if you can't easily figure out how to use it. If its "stupid easy", their customer acceptance will grow faster, the company will then grow faster (all things equal) and company longevity in the long run will outlast the higher functionality / less user friendly alternative.
2) Always be sure you can export all your data out of the system. The software company should not own any of your data.
3) Feel good about their data security and privacy. Despite what I read on the software site, I really wouldn't know what was really secure or not without hiring a pro to check it out. So if they sound smart and seem to have 3rd party name brand security controls, and a big enough following - like in the 1000s, my bet is that a few of their customers took the time or money to pay an attorney to do the due diligence to test their subscription agreement. Educated gamble?
4) Make sure that the web based software has an Open API. If they don't play well (integrate) with others, avoid them. See how many integrations are available for them with folks like Zapier. The more the software offers to do it all, the more reason to be wary. You can't do it all, why do we expect the same from software? What is best, like hiring talent, is to get the best talent you can, for what you specifically need done, and then make sure that the different specialists of talent (or software) have a means to efficiently exchange common information.
5) Watch out for the "hook you and bleed you" strategy. Look at the subscription tier pricing. If they have too many options or it looks too complicated, I would take it as a warning. You are about to get "nickle and dimed".
6) Dig in and verify their customer support system. They should at least have an 8-5 chat support with an average queu time of not more than a few minutes. They should have plenty of "stupid simple" to understand DIY (Do It Yourself) videos and instructions that you can search on their site or on Google with equal results. See if they have a user forum that is active with the software company.
7) How fast does the software "boot up", refresh, or update? Do they brag about their uptime and back-up / recovery capacity? There is pretty software out there with ugly back ends. I have a Lexmark WIFI printer that is beautiful, the ink is dirt cheap, prints great when it prints, but the software crashes every 3 print jobs....I will post video soon of me, my 40 cal Walther pistol, and my Lexmark......... Does the software open and work quickly? Can you navigate through the software quickly with few levels of depth? How fast does the page refresh as you navigate and enter data? With the best software, you don't even notice the refresh or "save".
8) What are their customers saying? Check out the customer reviews. Are customers raving about them? Conversion stories are telling (going from one software to another). Are the testimonials current? See what their employees are saying about them at www.glassdoor.com.
9) What is the market saying about the software? Search the software company name and select "news" in Google and see what the "talking head" community thinks about the different software options. Bigger is not always better.
10) Try the software out for free for a few weeks (most offer that). If it is a higher end piece of software like Infusionsoft, take the time to observe an exhaustive demo, or share in the license of someone you know? At G-Force for simple contact management and follow-up we allow our clients to borrow for a month or so our license of Infusionsoft. A try before you buy service.

Originalmente postado no Loronix em 08 de julho 2007.
Comentários originais incluídos.
Sabadabada last update included this album and perhaps Loronixers are already with Os Intocaveis in their collection. However, it is a masterpiece that cannot be a missing piece at Loronix. Additionally, Caetano made a wonderful job on converting from vinyl to digital, as always. This is a truly awesome Samba/Bossa Jazz instrumental piece with not credited musicians as bass, guitar, drums, piano, trombone, flute, oboe, sax baritone and two percussionist and I invite everybody to identify them.
This is Os Intocaveis - Os Intocaveis (1964), for Audio Fidelity. Nice repertoire mixing well-known Bossa Nova standards, Jorge Ben and also international songs. The back cover liner notes is open and honest with us saying that personnel includes excellent musicians, not credited due contract obligations with others record labels, saying also there is a main artist from the cast of another label. Who knows? I don't have a clue.
Tracks include:
01 - Por Causa de Você Menina (Jorge Ben "Jorge Benjor")
02 - Rio (Roberto Menescal / Ronaldo Bôscoli)
03 - Devagar Com a Louça (Haroldo Barbosa / Luis Reis)
04 - Bossa na Praia (Geraldo Cunha / Pery Ribeiro)
05 - Sukyiaki (R. Ei / H. Nakamura)
06 - Mas Que Nada (Jorge Ben "Jorge Benjor")
07 - Samba do Avião (Tom Jobim)
08 - Garota de Ipanema (Tom Jobim / Vinicius de Moraes)
09 - Blame It On The Bossa Nova (Ensinando a Bossa Nova) (C. Weil / B. Mann)
10 - Tim Dom (Clodoaldo Brito / João Mello)

I love how God works. For the last few months I've felt like a scrooge. I'm just so sick of all the consumerism that goes along with Christmas. Do you ever feel like that!? I started thinking I was the only one and maybe something was wrong with me. Then I got a Proverbs 31 daily devo that spoke to what I was feeling....then my mom forwarded me this video....then a family member sent me info on a book about living radically for Jesus (Crazy Love)...then my cousin posted a similar post to her blog. Ahhaa! I'm not alone! There are others out there rethinking Christmas, but it's not an easy task. People think you're crazy and you start to feel like maybe you are!
Advent Conspiracy is a movement calling us to proclaim Christ in how we celebrate Christmas. It's not about being a scrooge, it's about buying ONE LESS gift to support someone in need. Or buying small gifts, no gifts, or whatever you feel called to do. But it's about doing something. And I'm not talking about boycotting Christmas and not buying any gifts...I love giving AND receiving and I know others do too. This is just about doing something different this year. And it doesn't have to end with Christmas. It's just so easy to get sucked into satan's trickery sometimes...he's taken Jesus' birth and added a fat man in a red suit and presents to distract us from what's important(taken from a recent message from our awsome youth pastor).
This year, I challenge you to enter the story! Give ONE LESS gift and help someone in need. Give your time, money, or resources - give presence instead of presents.
For Dean and I, we helped our 20-something group support 6 kids who otheriwse wouldn't have gotten anything for Christmas. These kids wear the same clothes to school day after day. We raised money to not only buy them clothes, but also shoes, coats, toys, and bikes! Now that's one unbelieveable present in the name of Christ!
For more ideas on how to Enter The Story, go to http://www.adventconspiracy.org/ or http://www.rethinkingchristmas.com/
If you join the conspiracy, share with us on what you did this year to make a difference by posting a comment below!

For a while, I lived a conventional lifestyle. I graduated high school, and married while living in Farmington, Connecticut.
After my three sons started school, I returned to college and earned a B.S. degree in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of Connecticut. For a few years, I worked as a software engineer, consulting on applications ranging from submarine combat systems to biological research databases. Weekends and vacations were spent sailing on the waters of Long Island Sound.
As an avid sailor and licensed charter captain, the itch to sail away into the sunset soon became to strong to resist. When our little boys became college students, my husband and I sold our house and furniture, waved good-bye to shocked friends and relatives, and moved aboard our sailboat. We headed south along the Atlantic coast via the Intracoastal Waterway, exploring Chesapeake Bay, Pamlico Sound, historic cities, out-of-the-way fishing villages, unspoiled marshes, and dozens of quiet, moonlit anchorages teeming with wildlife. After that first adventure, we were hooked on a cruising life.
Since then, we have spend many years roaming the Southern U.S. coastline, exploring the Bahamas, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands, and enjoying the tropical islands of the Caribbean and the offshore islands of South America. We have cruised as far north as Gloucester, Massachusetts and as far south as Puerto La Cruz, Venezuela, east to Trinidad and Tobago, and west to Curacao.
For a year, our boat was docked in Titusville, Florida. From our aft deck, we watched space shuttle launches from the Kennedy Space Center. After surviving Hurricanes Charley, Francis, and Jean, we traveled north. Now, our boat is docked in Virginia, and we're sailing on Chesapeake Bay.
We've adopted a sheltie from Sheltie Haven Sheltie Rescue in Maryland. Our previous sheltie loved to swim and was a great sailor. Eve dislikes the water, except for bubbly baths. She prefers to sleep and sunbath on deck.
I began my writing career with non-fiction articles. But my husband and I were sailing to lush, exotic islands under starry skies, walking on the most beautiful, white-sand beaches in the world, watching fiery sunsets, smelling nutmeg drying in the sunshine, breathing tangy salt air, eating juicy pineapples fresh from the fields, and feeling the wind blowing through our hair. How could my thoughts not turn to romance?
One day, while we were anchored in Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands, the boat rocking gently in the trade winds, I started writing about a charter yacht crewed by a salty captain and a land-lubber chef. That novel, A Trade Wind Season, was released by Avalon Books two years later.
Since then, I've written a romantic suspense novel set on a remote island in the Bahamas, (Secret Stranger), the story of a woman searching for her lost child in the Bermuda Triangle (Deadly Paradise), Beyond Paradise, a multi-cultural romance about a SCUBA instructor struggling to save her father's shop from bankcrupcy, River of Fear, a romantic suspense about a former Navy SEAL who is fighting to maintain custody of his children, and Deadly Memories, a romantic suspense that pits a cyber-security expert and his former lover against a extortionist threatening national security. I've discovered I love writing romance spiced with adventure and suspense!

Manchester City have been fined 60million euros (£49million) and handed a reduction in their Champions League squad for next season from 25 to 21 players for breaching UEFA's financial fair play rules.
UEFA announced the sanctions in a statement - but City will have 40million euros of the fine returned if the Premier League champions comply with spending controls agreed with UEFA.
Manchester City have accepted the sanctions, which also include a salary freeze on their Champions League squad for the next two seasons, and to "significantly limit spending in the transfer market for seasons 2014/2015 and 2015/2016", said UEFA in a statement.
The other clubs to have failed FFP are: Paris St Germain from France, Galatasaray, Trabzonspor and Bursaspor from Turkey, Russian sides Zenit St Petersburg, Anzhi Makhachkala and Rubin Kazan, plus Levski Sofia from Bulgaria.
City said in a statement they had agreed to limit their net spending on new players to 60million euro (£49million).
The statement said: "The club's expenditure on new players for the upcoming summer transfer window, on top of income from players it might sell, will be limited to 60m euros. This will have no material impact on the club's planned transfer activity."
City said there had been "a fundamental disagreement" over the interpretation of the FFP regulations on players purchased before 2010 but that it had "decided to enter into a compromise agreement with UEFA".
The club statement added: "The MCFC Champions League squad for the 2014-15 competition will be limited to 21 players. In 2013-14 the club registered 23 players for the competition and used 21.
"The wage bill of the whole club (playing and non-playing staff) for 2014-15 will need to remain at the same level as that of 2013-14 season.
"It is important to note that additional bonuses for performances can be paid outside this number. Importantly, in reality, the existing MCFC business plan sees a natural decline in that wage bill.
"The nature of conditions that will result in the lifting of sanctions means that the club expects to be operating without sanction or restriction at the commencement of the 2015-16 season."

Last Exit to Brooklyn
(Critical Guide to Censorship and Literature)
The Work
When Grove Press published Last Exit to Brooklyn in 1964, the firm encountered relatively few censorship efforts, despite the book's violence, graphic sexual activities, and vulgar language. An effort was made in Massachusetts to get an injunction against the book, but the state attorney general directed the local district attorney to dismiss the charges. In Connecticut, however, a district court issued a temporary injunction prohibiting the sale and distribution of the book, which it ruled obscene and pornographic. A similar injunction was granted in British Columbia, Canada.
In Great Britain, however, Selby's book encountered more serious problems. Although the British government did not officially rule the book obscene, Sir Cyril Black, a Conservative member of Parliament, took it to court. A London magistrate then ruled that the book, taken as a whole, would tend to "deprave and corrupt" readers. This ruling applied only to the magistrate's own Marlborough Street area; however, Selby's problems were compounded when a later jury trial, in 1967, found that his book violated Britain's Obscene Publications Act of 1959. American publishers who had planned to publish books in Great Britain either postponed their plans or edited their books to avoid similar censorship problems. In August, 1968, Selby's case was taken to a British appeals court, which reversed the lower court's decision on a technicality.
The Last Exit to Brooklyn case was almost as important and controversial as an earlier case involving D. H. Lawrence's Lady Chatterley's Lover. A 1988 film adaptation of Selby's book by Neue Constantin Film Productions was graphic but encountered no censorship problems.

What to do with a squash...Posted by Nancy - Ornament_Gal at 10:15 AM
We were headed out of town for a week and I asked my neighbor to water my plants and enjoy the produce. We were looking at the soccer ball-sized Blue Hubbard squash. I said, "Pick it". She said she wouldn't know what to do with it. Hmmm. Would I know what to do with it? I'd probably peel it chop it into pieces and steam it. I might lose a finger or at least some skin in the process.
I've found an easier way. Chop it half. Scoop out the seeds. Slap the squash halves face down on a cookie sheet. I lined mine with one of those silicon baking liners. Next stick some cloves of garlic under the squash. Set the oven to 350°F and let it bake for 20-50 minutes until the outer shell is soft. Let it cool until you can handle it and then scoop out the flesh. Easy peasy. No need to peel the squash. No cut fingers. No trips to the ER.
So what did I do with this cooked squash? Well, I had one large helping with my dinner. Just salt and pepper it a bit and it's pretty good. You could add butter, cheese, nuts or anything. Right now, I'm baking some bread that used the rest of this squash. The recipe is from Cooking Thin with Chef Kathleen, Sweet Potato Bread with Cranberries, Currants, and Pecans, page 88. Although I haven't tried it yet, I think almost any recipe for banana bread could be used. Just substitute the cooked squash for the bananas.
I can't seem to find fresh cranberries except around Thanksgiving and then they are incredibly expensive. I find that weird because some cranberries are grown here in Oregon. Instead I used dried cranberries. To entice the family to eat the bread, I added chocolate chips. Not so good on the waistline but hey they're eating squash!
So there it is...the first recipe from Cooking Thin with Chef Kathleen. Maybe I won't cook through the whole cookbook but there are a lot of good recipes in here. I may just learn a bit more about cooking other unusual foods.
Update -- Bread is out of the oven. It looks and smells good. Waiting for it to cool down. Since the oven was hot, I decided to roast the other Blue Hubbard squash. About six beets were included in the food from Red Basket Farm yesterday. So I tossed those in...trimmed, scrubbed, and rubbed them with oil and tossed them on the baking sheet. Then I took a look in the cookbook for beets. Should have read the cookbook first. Seems you want to wrap beets in foil or half cover them with water and cover with foil. Sigh. My own fault. So I went and pulled the beets out of the oven. They were still cool enough to handle with bare hands. I compromised and a foil pouch for all of the beets. We'll see how that turns out.
Update to the Update -- The beets turned out beautifully. To peel them, I just held them under a small stream water and rubbed. The tough outer layer just came right off. Easy peasy.

It was wet from the Gold Coast to Toowoomba
We drove up to Toowoomba today, heavy traffic on the way up and wet when we arrived.
We went out to lunch with friends at a nice nursery and it poured while we were there, and all the way home.
These photos were taken from the car on the way home.
Just to prove we were there, but the trip home was tiring with loads of trucks and wet roads.
Actually a good day to be out like that. Maybe a better day tomorrow.
Not that I mind rain, I would just love to have it at home.

Not Available at your Local GameStop
As a gamer with peculiar tastes, if there's one thing I understand it's the logistics of the preorder. Sure, some people will cry bloody murder about it. Preordering hands your money to a retailer early. Some people forget about their preorders and the retailer can just pocket the change. Furthermore it almost guarantees a sale for that store, preventing you from shopping elsewhere. I have heard these arguments before.
However, look at it from the other perspective. You want a game that hasn't seen a lot of publicity. Most stores would assume that this is a title that wouldn't be in high demand. As such, they only get a few copies in stock. It's also not prioritized so it may show up a week late. Not that it would make a difference as it seems not many people are that interested in the game.
But, if you preorder, it guarantees a sale once the title comes in. As such it is flagged in the system and prioritized. Now that store should get at least one copy in on time. But more than that, it shows that there is a greater interest in the title than originally anticipated. If one or two people preorder, that means that there might be one or two more walk-ins than expected as well. As such, more titles overall are shipped to that store.
Honestly, this is a good system and helps ensure that the right quantities of titles are shipped to the right stores. Yes it practically locks your purchase to a single store. But, if that store is the closest one to you anyway? Who cares!
There's just one problem: games that can't be preordered. These are known as C-List or D-List titles. Games deemed so unimportant that you can't even preorder them.
This is a problem. With C-List titles if they aren't preordered, they aren't shipped. But C-List titles can't be preordered. So they can't be shipped. So they can't ever get to the store and they never sell.
At first glance, you'd think they were just passed over. After all, there are a lot of games coming out these days so it's perfectly plausible that someone would miss one or two of them, right? However, this is GameStop we're talking about, the single largest video game retailer in America! Sure Best Buy might miss one or two, but when your company is devoted entirely to video game sales? Someone should be on that. Considering I can find them on GameFAQs and other sites, I should be able to find them in the GameStop listings.
This is further proven by the fact that some of these titles actually are in the system. They just don't appear on the list of preorderables for one reason or another. Let's not even get into the fact that some GameStop Exclusives have been unpreorderable!
This is hardly a new phenomenon. $20 titles are regularly passed over by GameStop's computers. I guess they're just not worth it as it's such a small sale, but it still annoys me. Commando: Steel Disaster, Black Sigil, Little Red Riding Hood's Zombie BBQ, and Animal Boxing are all examples of titles in the past that one could not preorder.
However, as time goes by, bigger and bigger titles are slipping past the preorder list. The first one to really shock me was Way of the Samurai 3. A full priced XBox 360 title and part of a decently recognizable series. The official GameStop website listed it. Heck, there was even a special preorder bonus if you preordered from GameStop.com! But the stores themselves just did not list it.
Now they have officially crossed the line. Why? Because Monster Rancher DS is the latest game that cannot be preordered.
It's a wallbanger of epic proportions. Monster Rancher is a well known and decently successful series. The DS entry is looking to be a well made and impeccably polished game for the system. It even has online play! Yet GameStop has decided not to allow any preorders of it.
I could, of course, go on about how odd this all is. For a company so obsessed with preorders to just randomly not allow them on certain titles is odd. I could also talk about how face punchingly annoying it is when, after asking if the game is in stock, the clerk then says "You should have preordered!". However, every GameStop in the area has learned better by now. Yes, this has happened frequently enough that I have personally bitched out just about every single GameStop employee within a 100 mile radius of my house. I try to be nice though because I know their pain. I used to work there.
However, let's look at this from the game company's perspective. You have just spent years making and/or translating a game. You're out of cash and can't do much advertising, but your confident that good word of mouth will cause the game to sell well enough for you to turn a profit. Unfortunately, GameStop is about the only retailer that would carry such an obscure game and they have opted not to allow preorders on it. Meaning, again, that it either won't ship or will ship late and in incredibly limited quantities. This means most people, even if they want to play your game, won't be able to. No word of mouth, no sales, and a big loss for your company.
This is, of course, when people start talking about how downloads are the future. However, that is a story for another time.
Still, think about how this will affect the poor Monster Rancher series! It's bad enough it has to go toe to toe with Pokemon Heart Gold and Soul Silver; but this blatant mistreatment of the title ensures a complete lack of sales and it won't be able to compete. Monster Rancher has already had a rocky sales history in America and with this as well as the recent Koei merger, it's future does not look bright.
Ladies and gentlemen, there are not enough words in the English language to describe what a damn shame it would be if we lost the Monster Rancher series. Easily the deepest and most technical monster training simulation out there, it stands head and shoulders above it's competition in terms of gameplay. Monster Rancher 4 is one of the very few games ever made that I would honestly give a perfect score to as it was just that good. No other game has even come close to that level of depth in their monster training. Not even Pokemon.
So, what can we do? The heck if I know! However, whatever jackass runs GameStop is in serious need of a punch in the jaw.
