Niche market research is the first step that you should take before creating the website. In case you didn't know, there are two type of niches. Those are macro niche and micro niche.
Tim Bekker has created a unique system called Whitehat Copycat. Basically, Whitehat Copycat is about targeting macro niches. Such niche is searched million times per week. Hence, if you could get small portion of this niche, there's a high chance you will be making the money. Here's are example of macro niches:
Antivirus market. Don't browse the internet without antivirus program installed. That gives you the idea on how big antivirus market is. New virus is released by cyber criminals everyday. Therefore, thousands of computer users are searching for antivirus download. Antivirus download has become the source of revenue for lots of companies, including Kaspersky, Norton and CNET.
Registry cleaner download. Registry is the core of Windows operating system. When one computer is still new, there is less registry problem. However, once it is used to browse the web, installing programs or downloads, the registry could be corrupted, resulting in slow computer. Registry cleaner could solve these problems. People who use the computer and internet faces slows down and blue screen error problem everyday and this could mean huge market for you.
Video player program. Media player and mp3 player program are popular downloads at Download.com. In fact, most computers have programs like Winamp, Quick Time Player and Real Player installed.
Antivirus, registry cleaner and media player download are example of macro niches. These programs is a must in every computer and without doubt will be searched million times per day. Target one keyword in these niches and you can expect to get thousands of traffic in a matter of days.
However, keep in mind that not all traffic that comes from these keywords are buyers. In fact, majority of them are just looking for freeware, and therefore will less likely convert into sales. That's why Whitehat Copycat is not just about making sale from affiliate programs alone. Tim Bekker recommend that you generate revenue from these models:
Publish Google Adsense ads in your website. Unlike affiliate programs, you will earn revenue when someone click on your Adsense ads. Therefore, no selling is required.
Pay-per-lead affiliate marketing. This model is also known as CPA marketing. You don't need to sell anything. However, you most convince visitors to download the program or sign up for free trial offer. Once they sign up, you will be paid.
Affiliate programs. You can find thousands of affiliate networks in computer software niche. For example, One Network Direct and Regnow. By registering as their affiliates, you can sell thousands of computer programs, antivirus, registry cleaner and antispyware program.

Do you want to become a successful in Google Adsense or CPA Marketing? Whitehat Copycat will give you straightforward instructions. Read this Whitehat Copycat review for more details.

- A Nook Color with GlowLight
- The entire set of Mary Connealy's The Kincaid Brides series
Now for my review:
Over the Edge
By Mary Connealy
The conclusion to the Kinkade Brides Trilogy.
One day….one cave….three teen brothers….one devastating event, and the lasting consequences that shape their lives and those around them.
I enjoyed reading this book, the adventure presented was very easy to imagine. I feel I know these characters. The author has a great way of presenting the characters, so that you know how and why they feel and act as they do.
I appreciate the way she drew the story to a conclusion that shows God's work in their lives.
I am very interested in reading more from this author, I hope she gives us more adventures with these characters.
I would like to thank the publisher for my copy of this book. I was not under obligation to present a favorable review. But I did enjoy the story and am pleased to recommend it.

This is a favorite salad of mine - a yummy and satisfying meal, and not much work when you are in 90+degree Fahrenheit weather (which you don't want to do when there's a heat wave!). Sorry, I don't remember where I got this recipe.
1. 2 cups uncooked tortellini
2. 1/4 cup white wine vinegar
3 Tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
3. 1 medium yellow bell pepper
1 medium red bell pepper
1 medium tomato
4. 6 oz. jar marinated artichoke hearts
5. 3 cups watercress or arugula
Quantity for tortellini is for two people. Any filling in the tortellini will do. Cook the tortellini in boiling water for about 10 minutes, like you do spaghetti, or get refrigerated or frozen). Cool off (put the pan outside to cool off the steam!)
Combine ingredients on number 2 in the dish you'll serve the salad in. This is your "dressing." Then add tortellini when cooled off.
Cut up bell peppers and tomato (number 3)
Add the artichoke hearts (sometimes I add some of the marinating fluid in the jar). You may add artichoke hearts from scratch, but then you may need to add some more "dressing"
Strip the watercress leaves from the stems and add when tortellini has totally cooled off. (so it will not wilt the watercress! I speak from experience:). I seldom add 3 cups - just the bunch that I bought.
Bon Appetite! Mange! Eet Smakelijk! Mahlzeit!
Where's the dessert? Of course....ice cream!

Ah, that looks gorgeous - and such a nice counterpoint to the petals and leaves in the header!

Not to mention that the counterpoint is also edible:)

What a useful recipe to have around - I shall try this as all the ingredients are available over here. I shall let you know what I think to it in due course.
- July 12, 2010 at 11:58 AM
- jeannette said...
You're welcome, Rosie! So right: a minimum of energy and tasty are the ingredients for a good summer recipe:)
You're welcome, Friend! Especially if you like pasta (often the salads without any carbs of meat in it are not enough - I get hungry again in a few hours!).
If you like spaghetti, this has a more subtle taste to it! I don't think you'll be disappointed:)

This sounds very tasty. Anything with marinated artichoke hearts is a winner in my book.

I often do this both in winter as in summer! I love it: it's tasty and easy to make. Are bell peppers the same as capsicum in Australia? We call them paprika.
Thanks for your visit. How strange that you couldn't find the sculpture. I didn't realise that they had moved it from it's original place. Tourist Information should have known about this.

Jeannette I found this on a site about the monument:
On 14 May 2007 the mayor of Rotterdam had the monument placed back at its prominent place on Plein 1940 , after an absence of some time for restoration.
Maybe it was during the time of this restoration that you were in Rotterdam.

I just bought some yummy tortellini, think I may have to try making that!

I bet I can make this dish very WW points wise. Sounds great. Using your ingredients, the only points are inthe tortellini which you can control easily

Oooooh! Finally a pasta salad that looks easy enough for me to make! Usually they have a billion ingredients, of which I may have one or two. This is perfect! I must try it! Then ... yeah! Bring on the ice cream!

So colorful, nutritious, and delicious-looking. Looks like a great recipe to bring to a potluck too.

EG Wow,
You like it, if you like subtle tastes...If you have some more recipes with artichoke hearts, I like to know it:)
Reader Wil 2 times,
Yes, I believe it's what we call in Holland "Paprika" - they're here available in a green, red, or yellow color -the last two are a little bit sweeter in taste.
I don't know why our friends living in Rotterdam couldn't find Zadkine's sculpture - we were there in 2004. Thank you much -so sweet of you to look it up!
Oh yes, I hope you'll like it! Ice cream for dessert is required LOL!
A Lady's Life,
Yes, it's very tasty! Thank you - do you realize that the magnolia pic is one of my 24 x 24 paintings (all flowers - I call them My Celebrity Collection)?
Thank you! I started re-writing my recipes this way, because I knew I could save time with this:)
I'm not sure what you mean with "the only points are in the tortellini...?
Yes, easy - especially when it's hot, and you don't want to make another trip to the market to get another ingredient!
Colorful - that's why I think they put 2 different bell peppers in it:)
Yes, great for potlucks - come to think of it - I haven't been to one (potluck) in a while...

Check out these robo pics in particular:
#23: What a terrific idea! No more anorexic, unrealistic "models"... these robots are way better!
#25: Gotta admit, creeps me out. Insect-robot hybrids with the head of an insect and body of a robot?!
#28: Honda and Asimo have done it again, w00t! Thought controlled robots? How incredibly awesome is that!
#33: Stunned to see this one! Looks like Eddie is a descendant of Kismet, one of my favorite robots sitting right here in my backyard at MIT. Kismet was Dr. Cynthia Breazeal's PhD thesis at the Media lab.
Kismet's ancestors are showcased @ the MIT museum. Very exciting to see generations of robots evolve.
It would be a dream come true to commercialize one of these robots, combining my twin passions of robots and entrepreneurship.
2 comments:
Kismet is rubbish. It is essentially a database lookup with some LEDs lighting up for various situations. That is not AI. When Marvin Minsky criticized it a few years ago, Breazeal went on a firefighting mode claiming that Minsky had misunderstood it and it was not really about emotions.
That claim is nonsense. The original webpage claimed it was about machines having emotions. This was when Brezeal was not yet a faculty member and was working for Rodney Brooks.
Essentially, all of MIT's AI research today is rubbish. Pattie Maes leads in this drivel in a field called Human Computer Interaction. What she does is shameful because this field is nothing more than dealing with user interface and should be done in the industry. Notwithstanding products like gesture recognition, it is a matter of great shame that MIT grants PhDs in the field of user interface.
From soldering, running motors and lighting up LEDs, MIT has now made the giant leap into programming user interface!
I don't mean to pour scorn on MIT, but I want to provoke a discussion and hopefully spur the researchers on to getting on the right track. I would request you to circulate this comment among faculty members and students at MIT and would love to check out their reactions.

If your goal is to sincerely "provoke a discussion and spur researches on to getting on the right track", I suggest you identify yourself first without cloaking yourself in anonymity. This smacks of hit-and-run. Leaving anonymous comments trashing other people's research is hardly the way to promote any rational discussion.

BBM Overview: PPM summer ratings
Bray & Partners president David Bray breaks down which radio stations are on top in Toronto, Vancouver, Edmonton and Calgary.
As summertime scenes start to fade in our memories, we get a chance to reflect on radio over the summer with the latest PPM radio ratings. Today's radio release from BBM completes the 13-week period covering May 30 to Aug. 28. This marks the eighth 13-week period in the new era of measurement for Toronto, Vancouver, Edmonton and Calgary. Let's take a look at some of the numbers.
Toronto: Bragging rights at the top of the ratings heap go to CHFI-FM with a 12.6% share of hours tuned for A12+ (down from 13.6% last time out). CHFI-FM remains #1 with the ladies 25-54, posting a 16.5% share (down from 17.1%), followed by CHUM-FM with a 15.7% share (down from 16.0%). Q107 is, once again, on top for M25-54, posting a 12.4% share (down from 13.9% in the last 13-week book). The Edge held their #1 slot with M18-34 turning in a 17.9% share (down from 21.2%). For F18-34, CHFI-FM tops the list posting a 15.4% (down from 15.9%) share followed by 102.1 The Edge with a 14.2% (up from 11.1%) share of hours tuned.
Vancouver: CKNW holds the #1 spot for A12+ with a 11.5% share of hours tuned (down from 11.6% last time out). Taking the top spot for females aged 25-to-54 was perennial office station favourite 103.5 QM-FM, posting a 14.3% share (up from 12.5%). The Beat vaults into the lead with male 25-to-54 listeners, delivering an 11.1% share (up from 9.9%). The Beat tops the list for M18-34 with 19.2% share of hours tuned (up from 18.0%) followed by the FOX with 11.0% (down from 13.4%). When it comes to females 18-34, the Beat also takes top spot with a 17.0% share (up from 14.6%).
Edmonton: 630 CHED rules the roost for A12+ posting a 10.2% share of hours tuned (down from 10.3% last time out). 102.3 NOW! Radio takes top spot for F25-54, delivering an 11.7% share (up from 11.2%). NOW! also tops the list for M25-54 with a 12.4% share (up from 10.1%) followed closely by The Bear at 10.3% (down from 10.4%) and Sonic 102.9 at 10.3% (up from 10.0%). For M18-34, Sonic 102.9 is out in front with a 16.9% (down from 17.6%) share.
Calgary: QR77 leads the way for A12+ with an 8.9% share (down from 10.2%) neck and neck with Country 105 which also posted with an 8.9% share (up from 6.5%). Country 105 is popular with the ladies, taking #1 spot for F25-54, delivering a 12.5% share (up from 9.4%). For M25-54, X92.9 leads the way with a 10.6% share (up from an 8.7%) along with JACK-FM at 10.6% (down from 12.8%). X92.9 takes top spot for M18-34, posting an 18.9% share (up from 18.1%).

Struggling With Lost Blog Posts
Einsam in trüben Tagen (Elsa's Dream) is a famous aria from the first act of Richard Wagner's opera, Lohengrin. Wagner's wife Cosima recorded in her diaries that Wagner told her that he had written an earlier version of the aria, but lost it. The present aria was an inferior rewrite from the composer's memory. Wagner told his wife that he always mourned the loss of the original version. Remember, those were the days before backup!
6:26 PM May 13, 2011. I notice that Blogger has restored the lost blog posts. I think I'll keep the rewrites and the original posts.

Incidentally, the character Lohengrin -- like Superman -- is a mysterious stranger who conceals his name and origins. He is Elsa's knight in shining armor who defends her against defamation.

- Gary Freedman said...
(quietly transfigured
staring ahead of her)
Lonely, in troubled days
I prayed to the Lord,
my most heartfelt grief
I poured out in prayer.
And from my groans
there issued a plaintive sound
that grew into a mighteous roar
as it echoed through the skies:
I listened as it receded into the distance
until my ear could scarce hear it;
my eyes closed
and I fell into a deep sleep.
How extraordinary! Is she dreaming? Is she enraptured?
(as though trying to wake Elsa from the dream)
Elsa, defend yourself before the court!
(Elsa's expression goes from one of dream-like detachment to one of frenzied transfiguration)
In splendid, shining armour
a knight approached,
a man of such pure virtue
as I had never seen before:
a golden horn at his side,
leaning on a sword -
thus he appeared to me
from nowhere, this warrior true;
with kindly gestures
he gave me comfort;
I will wait for the knight,
he shall be my champion!
May the grace of Heaven preserve us,
that we may clearly see who is guilty here!

Alameda County will continue its push for greater community participation and government transparency on Saturday, May 3, at the Alameda County Apps Challenge 2014.1, a unique day-long event designed to challenge the public to create web and mobile applications using Alameda County open data sets. The Apps Challenge will run from 8:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. at Dublin High School, 8151 Village Parkway, Dublin. Cash prizes will be awarded for civic-minded web and mobile applications.
Alameda County Apps Challenge 2014.1 is the third hackathon sponsored by Alameda County in its effort to increase community engagement and broaden public understanding of local government by opening access to data created and kept by County agencies and departments. The Dublin event is expected to bring together more than 100 software developers, community members, activists and entrepreneurs for a full day of creativity, collaboration and innovation.
"These events are a great way to highlight the many services offered by the County, and it allows the opportunity to tap into the vast pool of talent and creativity available right here in our own community,'' said Alameda County Supervisor Scott Haggerty, whose district includes Dublin. "It is my honor to host this year's Apps Challenge in District 1."
A Grand Prize of $3000 will be awarded to the most inventive and user-friendly app or concept that benefits Alameda County residents, businesses and visitors. A second prize of $1500, a third prize of $500 and honorable mentions will also be awarded.
The Apps Challenge is part of a nation-wide movement stemming in part from President Obama's Open Government Initiative, which directed government agencies to increase transparency and implement open data policies.
Alameda County was one of the first counties in California to host its own hackathons to promote its open data offerings. The County also held its first internal hackathon last year to challenge its employees to come up with apps to help improve customer service and other aspects of County operations. A second internal hackathon is being planned for later this year.
At the Apps Challenge, Alameda County invites participation from residents of all skill levels and age groups: professional and novice developers, high school and college students, seniors, and residents with no technical background but a passion for civic engagement. Each team at the hackathon will include a mixture of coders and "idea" people working together to create functional apps or develop app concepts.
In planning the event, Alameda County is looking to forge partnerships with local education, business and government leaders to maximize outreach to programmers, students and members of the community.
Participants in the May 3 event will have access to the nearly 100 data sets available through the Alameda County Data Sharing Initiative at http://data.acgov.org. The data covers a wide range of topics, including public safety data, a listing of Certified Green Businesses, public health data, maps of senior services and more.
Alameda County held its first Apps Challenge event in December 2012 in Castro Valley. Its second Apps Challenge occurred in April 2013 in Berkeley. Both events drew more than 120 participants and resulted in dozens of clever apps, many of which continue to be used in the community. Prize-winning apps included:
- AC BookIt!: a clever mobile app that allows users to check if a book is available in the Alameda County library system, reserve the book and get the library's address. It is available in the Apple App Store.
- Green By Me: an app that allows users to locate green businesses across Alameda County.
- ACPR Finder: an app developed by high school students that sifts through County Parks and Recreation data to provide useful information about local parks, trails and recreation facilities.
Judges at the 2013 AC Apps Challenge try to decide who gets the win. Photo pinned by Alameda County.
The cost to participate in Alameda County Apps Challenge 2014.1 is $15 for general admission and $10 for students and seniors. Government employees may participate for free. For more information about the Apps Challenge and to register for the event, please visit: http://code.acgov.org. A mobile version of the site is also available at http://code.acgov.org/mobile/.

The Melrose Substance Abuse Prevention Coalition and Melrose Police Department invite you to participate in National Medication Take Back Day on Saturday, April 30th, 2016, from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m.
Spring cleaning doesn't just mean spending a whole weekend in your attic, garage, or basement anymore; it also includes cleaning out your medicine cabinet! We are fortunate in Melrose to have the ability to safely dispose of medications and syringes all year round. For over five years, the Melrose Police Department has operated a permanent medication drop box located in the station's lobby available 24/7, while Melrose City Hall on Main Street maintains a syringe drop box available during regular business hours (Monday – Thursday, 8:30 a.m. – 4:00 p.m., Friday, 8:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.).
WHO: Anyone can participate in National Take Back Day to help curb prescription drug diversion and abuse!
WHAT: Get rid of any expired or unused medications. Some examples of the most commonly abused prescription drugs include: opioids (such as pain relievers OxyContin, Vicodin, Percocet), depressants (Xanax, Valium), and stimulants (Concerta, Adderall).
Accepted in Drop Box
- Prescription meds, patches, liquids, ointments
- Over-the-counter medications
- Vitamins
- Medications for pets
Not Accepted in Drop Box
- Needles (Sharps) *accepted at City Hall during regular business hours)*
- Thermometers
- Aerosol Cans or inhalers
- Hydrogen Peroxide
WHERE: Melrose Police Dept. 56 West Foster Street, Melrose, MA 02176 – (781)-665-1212
WHEN: Saturday, April 30th between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.
WHY: Prescription drug abuse is the fastest growing problem in our region, especially for our youth. Among adolescents, prescription and over-the-counter medications account for most of the commonly abused illicit drugs by high school seniors. According to The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) and the 2015 Monitoring the Future Survey, more than 50% of high school seniors report that prescription drugs are "fairly easy or very easy to get." When asked how prescription narcotics were obtained for nonmedical use, 70% of 12th graders said they got them from a friend or relative, most times straight from their medicine cabinet without someone knowing.
There is a common myth that abusing prescription drugs is "safer" than abusing illicit drugs. However, when prescription drugs are taken repeatedly or in large doses, this changes the way the brain reacts and can make it harder for someone to feel good without the drug, leading to cravings, addiction, and potentially overdose.
In addition to getting the drugs out of the home, disposing of them at the community drop box is also an environmentally friendly way to prevent drugs from being flushed down the toilet and getting into the water supply.
Help protect your family, your community, and the environment by properly disposing of the prescription and over-the-counter medications you no longer need. Remember, if you cannot attend this Saturday's event, you may bring ALL unused and/or expired prescription drugs and over-the-counter medications to the Melrose Police Department to the drop box located in the lobby, available 24/7. Syringes can be brought to Melrose City Hall on Main Street during regular business hours. If you have any questions or would like to find out more about the Melrose Substance Abuse Prevention Coalition, please call 781-979-4128.

It is that time of the year again! Each year, I host an open house where I get to meet new people who are interested in getting into the field of wedding photography. Last year, I had about 20 people at my open house. From there, 7 of them helped me through my 2008 weddings.
Who is this for?
For people who are interested in getting to know the field of wedding photography. This is a great opportunity to learn what you have always wanted to do.
Where is this taking place?
At this moment, still TBD based on how many people are interested. We will have pizza, beer and wine for you! ... oh and soft drinks :)
When can I start helping?
It all depends, but all weddings are in 2009. After we meet, I still have to decide who will work with me next year based on experience and interest. I don't necessarily look for the most technical person. I am interested in friendly, fun and willing to learn people. Good smiles help :)
How do I get invited to the open house?
Here is what you need to do:
- Write me a short email (I mean short!) to tell me why you are interested in wedding photography. Be genuine and creative, don't send me an email to tell me because you get free boos and food ... heh :p
- Include a link to your latest people pictures. I am interested in your portrait skills, so please focus the picture selection on people!
- Your contact information (cell preferably)
- Please put "Open House" in the subject line
- email me at email@example.com
Once the submission process ends, and if you are selected, you will receive an email from me with an invitation to this Assistant Open House by 12/1/2008.
I would love to accommodate everyone, but due to the number of interested individuals, I won't be able to invite everyone. Please don't get mad at me if you are not selected. This is not personal. I just don't have the capacity to accommodate everyone.
Looking forward to receiving your emails!!

Hey There Polished People!
I've had quite a busy time lately. My husband's aunt recently passed away, which was, of course, sad but it reminded me of when my grandpa passed away the year before last. I don't know if it's my place to talk about her passing, so I think I'll just mostly talk about my own family after saying that she was a very nice, loving (people and animals) woman, a funny woman who always called me weird cuz of my heels 😉 and she was forgiving and laid back. Everyone will miss her.
It's horrible when someone dies. Everyone is sad, we all wish our family could live happily forever but there comes a time when everyone has to go. My family is awesome and I'm always proud of how we handle stressful situations but particularly what made me proud about the way we all dealt my grandpa's death is that we all focused on the happy memories of my grandpa. He was always so funny and cute and would say the silliest stuff. My grandma and grandpa lived in Eastern Montana (Grandma still lives there) so we always drive back there each summer for vacation to visit. It's a 2-day drive but well worth it. Whenever we were there visiting he loved telling everyone (waitresses, neighbors, strangers in the store) we were there from out of town. I think he was proud that we drove all that way to visit them for our only vacation each year. We'd be out and about and it'd be like "Where's Grandpa?" and sure enough, we'd find him telling some random person "These are my kids from Oregon!" It goes without saying that we all loved him very much. Anyway- what I'm getting to is that we all chose to be reasonably happy and spend our time with the family around the time of his funeral instead of all bawling inconsolably for a week. I felt like my grandpa would be really proud and happy with how we all did that. And whether you believe in God or Heaven or nothing at all, I think my grandpa knew we kind of honored him with a bonus family reunion instead of retreating into ourselves to be sad. That thought makes me really happy.
Okay, well I'm sorry for that depressing note but it's been on my mind lately. Today in polish-related news I have a super-clean grey to show you! It is…
SH Eel Skin
Eel Skin is a super-clean, unadulterated light grey. There's no shimmer to this as "eel skin" might suggest. It's a beautiful grey creme. I went to the Shoshone Ice Caves this past summer and the ice (which I believe at the time was 14 feet thick) is this pure grey color when you can get a good look at it. This color reminds me of that ice. If you want to see some images from Google for the Shoshone Ice Caves check it out here. If you want to see some pictures of my vacation there you can check out my Instagram account.
No complaints here. Goes on smooth, dried quickly. I think I used three coats. I always do.
Yes, Please! or No, Thank You:
Yes, Please!! I love this color. Also- I found mine at the Dollar Tree for guess what? A BUCK! So go check yours cuz maybe you'll be lucky too! 🙂 Need a nice plain grey? Not dirty, not greenish, not anything but grey? Get SH Eel Skin!
If I Named This Polish I Would Call It: Shoshone Ice Grey or Zombie Flesh
They both totally fit. Although this is a bit pretty for zombies. Maybe it's from fresh zombies. 🙂
Let me know how you liked this polish, if you even like greys (I feel like they're the new nude) and how your week has been! Thanks for reading and commenting and till next time- Happy Polishing! 😀

I'm so used to complaining, I haven't really known how to start my blog posts lately! ;p Not only am I free to do mostly whatever I want (as long as it doesn't involve too much money), but we are entering my favorite time of the year. The days heat up, but in the evening, it cools down nicely. Nice to sit in the backyard with the dog and a cool drink (non-adult beverages for me these days) and watch the sky turn lovely shades of pink, orange, and purple. Nature's magical light show that imbues one with a sense of wonder and awe. I am so content. Life is simple; life is about joy and creating.
Today, and for the next few days, I'll be quilting one of my own quilts. I was going to get mine done before the one I delivered yesterday, but the owner called and was nervous, so I put hers ahead of mine. When I dropped it at her office yesterday, she was away until Monday. Oh well, part of the ebb and flow of everyday life, no? Although mine is a show quilt, it's entered in the every day bed custom category, so I will be doing familiar designs, prettying-up a quilt I made just for me. Stencils and freehand, even though I have the IQ, because at the time I entered it, I didn't know the IQ would be here, so I entered it in the hand-guided category. So be it. It's nice to keep one's skills up anyway, not that you don't still need your skills when using the computer.
It's supposed to be 90 degrees here today. Unlike most of the country, we have been blessed with a relatively cool summer. It has been sunny and lovely, but the temps haven't gotten much above 85. For someone like me who is freezing all of the time, the weather has been perfect. I may actually be warm today. So, off to play on one of my own quilts. I've not done this in ages!
Have a great day all, and take time to enjoy the magic of summer.

On Saturday No. 1 Clemson downed No. 16 Florida State, 23-13, which allowed the Tigers to clinch the ACC Atlantic Division title. More importantly, the win also meant that head coach Dabo Swinney and his players could continue to dance in the locker room for one more week.

Tomorrow I'm leaving for London! We're flying out of Toronto so tomorrow is basically a travel day, since we won't actually get to London until Saturday morning. But either way, I feel this bizarre sense of surrealism every time I think about tomorrow. I have waited for this trip for so long that I am long past feeling excited. I have to keep reminding myself that everything is going to be okay and that I really am going to London, England tomorrow night and that it isn't going to be cancelled.
This is going to be an amazing trip and I can't wait to share it with my readers.
I can lie to you and say I will be updating while I'm there, but let's be real: we know that's not going to happen. Expect the next few months to be a lot of posts about how awesome London, Oxford, and Southend-on-Sea were!
Happy Wandering,

Finally visited the Sumikko Gurashi cafe
Character cafes are usually impossible to go to because they always get clogged with people queuing for hours, but by some miracle I got a table right away at this one. Probably because it was a weekday afternoon, and an hour away from central Tokyo by train.
It was worth the long journeyThey really did put a lot of effort into decorating; there wasn't a single corner of the place that didn't have Sumikko Gurashi on it. And that was great, because I adore every one of them.
They were surrounding us while we ate
Big props to the people who decorated the cafe. They even had a big screen on one end playing Sumikko Gurashi cartoons. I didn't even know they did cartoons, and the characters just kind of quietly bob around and bump into each other, but it was entertaining to watch.
And of course the food was cute too, even if it was just printed wafers stuck inside sandwichesThe wafers didn't taste of anything so they were really just decoration. But at least it did look a lot more interesting with the characters sitting in between slices of bread.
To their credit they did try hard with their pancakes. The stack was completely doused with cream, which was all they needed to shape it into the white bear
This might have been one of my best experiences at a character cafe, mostly because it was nice and empty and I didn't have to wait for anything (I will never forget the six hour queue at the Kanahei cafe in Shibuya). But the atmosphere was adorable too, complete with giant Sumikko Gurashi characters accompanying you at the tables.
It just steals your heart (and money)

Kerastase Chroma Sensitive Cleansing Balm
I have just used this and I love it already : ) I had my hair done on Saturday, so I have to use this for the next 3 washes. As you don't need conditioner afterwards, it's going to save me lots of time. Result! I'm almost tempted to buy another one as back-up!
NARS & ZOYA Nail Polishes
On the left is 'Arabesque' by NARS and 'Ali' by ZOYA is on the right. This photo does not really do either of these gorgeous nail polishes justice!
'Arabesque' is a beautiful rose-gold glittery polish and 'Ali' is a hot-pink.
This photo is a little clearer to how the colours look in real life. The glitter particles in 'Arabesque' seem to be perfectly round and create such a gorgeous shimmer. I'm still wearing 'Malaysian Mist' by OPI and I think that a coat or 2 of 'Arabesque' over the top would look fabulous. 'Ali' is a true neon-pink and I can't wait to wear it. It's not a work colour, so if I wear it one weekend it will have to come off by Monday : )
MAC & NARS Goodies
I got 3 eyeshadows - Satin Taupe, Sable & All That Glitters, a Pro Palette to put them in, Pro Longwear Concealer in NW20, Studio Fix Fluid foundation in NW20, NARS eyeshadow in Nepal and one of MAC's new cream blushes - Cremeblend Blush in So Sweet, So Easy. I wasn't intending to buy this blush, but the salesgirl was wearing it and it looked amazing...
The above photo was taken without the flash and the main photo was taken with the flash. The pigmentation is amazing and although it's a hot pink, it looks so lovely on.
I was planning on getting a lipstick in 'Playing Koi' from their new Quite Cute range, but that doesn't hit counters until Thursday. I think the salesgirl said this Thursday, but it could be next Thursday!
Ma Bar Bubble Bar from LUSH
I had a good look round LUSH and this was the only thing I fancied buying. I've already used a chunk of this and it smells lovely. I didn't get anything else as I have a tonne of other LUSH goodies to use up and I don't want to let them go to waste.
I also got some clothes in the GAP sale - a t-shirt, trousers for work & a pair of patent-pink flats, some gloves from Topshop (which I wanted when they were full-price and they were a bargain at just £1 a pair!), a box of 15 cookies from Ben's Cookies, and some toiletries from Boots (razor blades, Sanctuary Bath Soak and some Nivea Body Lotion for my mum).
Hope you all had a great weekend x

[20:28] <+NeomancerTeam> We are Andy, Andy and Kevin from Spira Productions. We are currently kickstarting our first product: Neomancer, a cyberpunk rpg. We are eager to answer your questions tonight! Done.
[20:28] <+NeomancerTeam> that was not prepared at all^^
[20:29] <~Dan> Thanks, guys! The floor is open to questions!
[20:29] <~Dan> What do you think makes Neomancer stand out from other cyberpunk RPGs?
[20:31] <+NeomancerTeam> Neomancer is a refined approach to Cyberpunk. We have updatet the assumptions about our future without losing the retro chic completely.
[20:31] <~Dan> Can you give some examples of that?
[20:34] <+NeomancerTeam> For example we do not emphasize on VR, in Neomancer, Augmented Reality and artificial lifeforms are more important and a vital part of the world. We try not to cross the line to science fiction though.
[20:35] <+NeomancerTeam> The gritty cyberpunk feeling is still there but we we implemented some modern aspects of our world.
[20:36] <+NeomancerTeam> Cyberpunk, in a way, has been overtaken by reality and we try to adapt
[20:36] <+NeomancerTeam> done
[20:36] <~Dan> Interesting… So there's no VR matrix?
[20:38] <+NeomancerTeam> VR is a purely recreational system. This has 2 reasons. In the world, it just does not make sense to "hack" virtually. No serious hacker would use a GUI, not in the 80s, not today and surely not in 100 years. They just love their code
[20:38] <+Lee> Many of the classic influences on the genre feature primarily "lone wolf" hackers or small collectives, but in the years since we've seen the rise of "hacktivist groups" like Anonymous. Is that reflected in the setting?
[20:39] <+NeomancerTeam> Mechanics-wise, a VR matrix always feels like a virtual dungeon crawl. Our approach is more like in modern video games, take watchdogs for example. We have layers of reality which have to be discovered
[20:41] <+NeomancerTeam> @Lee the Operator group could consist of a group hackers and there are plans for activists like f.society for example. But not every hacker is part of a group. It depends on the characters motivation
[20:42] <+NeomancerTeam> @ Dan done
[20:42] <~Dan> How prevalent are cybernetics in the game?
[20:44] <+NeomancerTeam> cyberware is a very vital part of our game and setting. Cyberware is relatively new and not always reliable. Depending on the money you spend. Also, we will implement a mechanic called "alienation" which will cover the difficulties of replacing body parts
[20:45] <~Dan> How does alienation work?
[20:45] <+NeomancerTeam> normal citizens use cyberware mostly for medical or aesthetic reasons. The Operators/players use it mainly to do their…thing^^
[20:47] <+NeomancerTeam> We are working on that right now. But in short, the more cyberware you use, the more alien your body feels to you. This can be triggered in- and outgame. Thats a classic cyberpunk mechanic which just feels right for our setting
[20:48] <+NeomancerTeam> done
[20:48] <~Dan> How advanced is technology in general? Is it mostly comparable to classic cyberpunk?
[20:49] <~Dan> I'm guessing you don't have laser weapons, for example.
[20:50] <+NeomancerTeam> It is a little bit more advanced than classic cyberpunk. There won't be cables for example for basic hacking. You wont necessarily have a hole in your head to plug a cable in.
[20:50] <+Lee> Does the setting reflect other current technologies like 3D printing and the introduction of smartphones, iPads, etc.? For instance, can a 3D printed prosthetic be used instead of cyberware?
[20:51] <+NeomancerTeam> Now, laser weapons are science fiction and honestly they are too clean for cyberpunk (and i personally prefer projectile weapons for style)
[20:52] * ~Dan nods
[20:52] <+Lee> Rail-guns?
[20:52] <+NeomancerTeam> Current technologies are available but the quality heavily depends on your skills and money. So, a self printed cyberarm wont be as effective, if it works at all.
[20:53] <+Lee> Got it – thanks
[20:53] <+NeomancerTeam> and to Rail-guns. While they are cool and maybe fitting. But the Operators are not military guys. We do not emphasize on weapons. In our Quick Start Guide, for example, is only one weapon listed. A pistol.
[20:54] <~Dan> Really? Wow…
[20:54] <+NeomancerTeam> sounds dissapointed^^
[20:55] <+NeomancerTeam> there will be more weapons in the core rules, of course.
[20:55] <~Dan> Well, surprised, certainly. No street samurais?
[20:55] <+Lee> Beyond the Quick Start, how focused on hardware are you?
[20:55] <+NeomancerTeam> But the concept of 100 weapons, which basically do the same and divide into pistols, guns, shotguns, etc… is not appealing to us
[20:56] <+NeomancerTeam> @Lee could you specify hardware?
[20:56] <+Lee> Overall gear available to Operators – beyond the basics, not just weapons.
[20:57] <+NeomancerTeam> @Dan well, there will be characters focusing on combat. They can have a mohawk if they reayll want and katana. But its not neccesary
[20:57] <+NeomancerTeam> @ We wont have huge gear lists. The Operators can individualize per cyberware, skills and talents.
[20:58] <~Dan> So the game isn't very combat-focused in general?
[20:58] <+NeomancerTeam> we promised crunch in our video, and there you will get it. However, it is not Exalted
[21:00] <+NeomancerTeam> We have very elaborate combat rules and groups can focus on combat if they want to. However, choosing the right tactic at the right moment is more important than the size and price of your gun
[21:01] <+NeomancerTeam> Our sample Operation in the Quick Start Guide does not have many combats. But if you want to, you can trigger a combat every step on the way. Remember, the Operators normally want to stay quiet, because the system has backup and combat is not always the smartest choise.
[21:01] <+NeomancerTeam> choice
[21:02] <~Dan> Can you say a bit about the setting's status quo? What year is it, for example?
[21:03] <~Dan> (Howdy, DayTripper!)
[21:03] <+NeomancerTeam> Its 2084, the cities have merged into megacities (as usual) and while there is still a government, the corporations have a lot of power
[21:03] <+NeomancerTeam> Hi
[21:04] <+DayTripper> evenin Dan, hey evvybuddy. Talk to me about Neomancer!
[21:04] <~Dan> 🙂
[21:04] <+NeomancerTeam> its great
[21:04] <+NeomancerTeam> 😉
[21:04] <+DayTripper> 🙂
[21:05] <~Dan> Are the usual assumptions in place about who the PCs are and what they do? Scoundrels for hire, etc., etc.?
[21:05] <+DayTripper> I know I'm late, tell me something really cool about it that you havent said yet
[21:06] <+NeomancerTeam> @DayTripper There are androids to have sex with^^
[21:06] <+NeomancerTeam> @Dan The Operators live "off the grid". Classical
[21:07] <+Lee> What happens after the operation? When the corporations are looking to find the Operators and make them abruptly stop living? The Kickstarter videos show the basic structure of the operation – what about the "downtime?"
[21:08] <+NeomancerTeam> The time between operations is very important. Here the Operators improve their skills/bodies, spend time with contacts (live their normal life), deal with consequences of the meta plot
[21:09] <~Dan> The game has a metaplot?
[21:09] <+NeomancerTeam> not the game, but your campaign
[21:10] <+NeomancerTeam> you should not just grind operation after operation. Some of them are relevant to the plot, you make enemies, friends,decisions etc
[21:10] <~Dan> Ah, I see.
[21:10] <+NeomancerTeam> You could just grind Operations, if you wanted to. With your mohawk and katana^^
[21:11] * ~Dan chuckles
[21:11] <+DayTripper> nice
[21:11] <+NeomancerTeam> But a campaign with a good metaplot resolving about interesting characters is more fun
[21:11] <+NeomancerTeam> and rewarding
[21:11] <+DayTripper> both the campaign downtime and the android sex. 🙂
[21:11] <+NeomancerTeam> you could combine that
[21:11] <+DayTripper> hajha
[21:12] <+NeomancerTeam> sex is good way to get in touch with your body and fight alienation^^
[21:12] <+NeomancerTeam> its 4.15am here, sorry. Dont judge us
[21:12] <+DayTripper> so hey – is this classic "wired" cpunk, or wireless?
[21:12] <+NeomancerTeam> Augmented Reality, hence wireless
[21:13] <+DayTripper> v cool
[21:13] <+NeomancerTeam> but you need to be there to "field hack"
[21:13] <+NeomancerTeam> secret data is not accessible from your home.
[21:14] <+DayTripper> ahh so like, local networks, you have to get near them?
[21:14] <+NeomancerTeam> yep, thats a good analogy
[21:14] <+DayTripper> awesome
[21:15] <~Dan> Speaking of hackers, are there any particular character types/classes that comprise a viable group?
[21:15] <+NeomancerTeam> there are no classes
[21:15] <+NeomancerTeam> ***silence****
[21:15] <~Dan> Well, I use the term "class" loosely in this case.
[21:15] <+NeomancerTeam> ah, okay
[21:16] <~Dan> Archetypes, if you prefer.
[21:16] <+NeomancerTeam> you dont need certain operators. But the choice of your skills defines your campaign
[21:16] <+Lee> Is that mechanically enforced in the rules somehow?
[21:16] <+NeomancerTeam> The GM should be aware of that. A combat group should not do a hacking focused campaign, obviously
[21:17] <+NeomancerTeam> no, but the Operators can choose freely between several options if it is not a meta-operation
[21:17] <+Lee> Okay
[21:17] <+NeomancerTeam> only the meta-operations are really important for the main plot
[21:19] <~Dan> Do you have a character sheet posted that we can see?
[21:19] <+NeomancerTeam> give me a second
[21:21] <+DayTripper> good question Dan. You can tell a lot from a character sheet.
[21:21] <+DayTripper> welll, sometimes 🙂
[21:22] <+NeomancerTeam> (Link: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B7nvr7fNyCV-ai1uaUtreUZnWTQ)https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B7nvr7fNyCV-ai1uaUtreUZnWTQ
[21:22] <+NeomancerTeam> here you go
[21:23] <~Dan> DayTripper: Not my first rodeo. 😉
[21:23] <+DayTripper> intense.
[21:23] <~Dan> Okay, so let's see here…
[21:24] <~Dan> Looks like we've got an attribute+skill system of some description?
[21:24] <+NeomancerTeam> basically yes
[21:24] <+NeomancerTeam> but you only make skill check
[21:24] <+NeomancerTeam> s
[21:25] <~Dan> What's the relationship between attributes and skills?
[21:25] <+NeomancerTeam> you add the first dot of every skill in column, thats your attribute
[21:27] <+NeomancerTeam> this is you base pool for every check in that column. If you have a dot after the line, you may add this in form of dice. If you are totally unskilled, the difficulty goes up (red numbers here)
[21:28] <~Dan> So your attribute in a given column depends upon how many skills you have?
[21:28] <+NeomancerTeam> yep
[21:28] <+Lee> I was curious how is an unskilled attempt resolved? How many dice would you roll? From the videos it was somewhat unclear.
[21:28] <~Dan> Actually, before answering Lee's question, can you describe the core mechanic?
[21:29] <+NeomancerTeam> The core mechanic is based on operator dice (OD) vs System dice (SD)
[21:29] <+NeomancerTeam> D6
[21:30] <+NeomancerTeam> You OD are determined by your skill value and the system SD by the difficulty (most of the time 2). So when Alaya makes a stealth check, she rolls 2OD and 2SD.
[21:31] <+NeomancerTeam> you get a success on 4+ on every dice. When there are more successes on OD than SD, the check was succesful
[21:31] <+NeomancerTeam> we recommend using 2 different colors for the dice
[21:31] <~Dan> Why does Alaya get to roll 2OD when she only has one dot in Stealth?
[21:32] <+DayTripper> stealth plus intimidate = 2 for BODY?
[21:32] <+NeomancerTeam> Her attribute is 2. And therefore she has 2 OD for stealth. The first dot indicates basic training.
[21:32] <+NeomancerTeam> @daytripper yes
[21:33] <~Dan> Okay, so… You add up the number of skills in a column to get the attribute score…
[21:33] <+DayTripper> question/possible errata: shouldnt manipulate and tactics be 4's?
[21:33] <~Dan> The attribute score is the basic score for all the skills…
[21:33] <+NeomancerTeam> no, you only add the first dot
[21:33] <+NeomancerTeam> before the line
[21:34] <~Dan> …and extra dots beyond the first add more dice to the attribute score?
[21:34] <+NeomancerTeam> no, only to the relevant skill
[21:34] <~Dan> That's what I meant, sorry.
[21:34] <+NeomancerTeam> okay, than you re right
[21:35] <~Dan> So Alaya has an effective score of 4OD in Tactics?
[21:35] <~Dan> 3 from Social plus an extra die?
[21:35] <+NeomancerTeam> yes, this is a mistake
[21:35] <+NeomancerTeam> the 3 should be 4
[21:35] <+DayTripper> ok same for manipulate
[21:35] <+NeomancerTeam> yep
[21:36] <+NeomancerTeam> shame!
[21:36] <+NeomancerTeam> thanks for finding that out
[21:36] <+NeomancerTeam> a glitch in the matrix
[21:36] <+DayTripper> hey we caught it. BUGHUNT
[21:36] <+DayTripper> now we can kill it
[21:36] <+NeomancerTeam> ^^
[21:36] <+DayTripper> 🙂
[21:36] <~Dan> I notice that combat abilities are listed under the skills.
[21:37] <+NeomancerTeam> what do you mean? Close and Range?
[21:37] <~Dan> Oh, I didn't realize what those are.
[21:38] <~Dan> So combat is pretty generalized, I take it.
[21:38] <+NeomancerTeam> yes, the diversity comes with the talents
[21:38] <+NeomancerTeam> alaya is not much of fighter
[21:40] <~Dan> What are the talents like?
[21:40] <+NeomancerTeam> i give you another example
[21:41] <+NeomancerTeam> some talents are combat oriented and others are narrative
[21:41] <+NeomancerTeam> it will take a lot of work to balance the talents out
[21:43] <+DayTripper> what do you mean by that, NT?
[21:44] <+NeomancerTeam> we try to not make the talents too powerful or too weak in combat and narrative. And there will also be a progression. Not necessarily talent trees but some kind of unlocking system
[21:44] <+NeomancerTeam> but your katana wielding mohawk warrior could choose hacking skills, no problem.
[21:44] <+Crazy-Cabal> How pink is his mohawk?
[21:45] <+DayTripper> ah
[21:45] <+NeomancerTeam> which would make him a data-stream-samurai (copyright pending)
[21:45] <+NeomancerTeam> @crazy you can pledge with 75$ and decide it for us^^
[21:46] <~Dan> How does combat work in this system?
[21:46] <+NeomancerTeam> you see everything you need on the character sheet.
[21:47] <+NeomancerTeam> Basically, you choose one of the 12 boxes in secret with a die (which also determines your initiative). So, the GM does not know what the players are up to and the vice versa
[21:48] <+NeomancerTeam> your actions determine your stance (top row) and the difficulty to hit you
[21:52] <+NeomancerTeam> it is round based and every character acts when it is its turn
[21:53] <+NeomancerTeam> You cannot spend infinite amounts of initiative, though. Operators have 10 in our sample scenario so you should choose carefully how much you spend and when
[21:53] <+NeomancerTeam> my spelling gets worse, it's late^^
[21:55] <~Dan> 🙂
[21:56] <+NeomancerTeam> done?^^
[21:57] <~Dan> How do you see the game line progressing?
[21:58] <+NeomancerTeam> it depends on the success of the core book. If there is enough interest we would be happy to expand our wolrd
[21:58] <~Dan> What would be the first region to get that work?
[21:59] <+NeomancerTeam> we actually have a campaign book in mind already
[22:01] <+DayTripper> i love cyberpunk but it's good to see it get a technology upgrade 🙂
[22:01] <+Lee> Any chance of a print edition? I noticed all of the KS reward levels are PDF…
[22:02] <+NeomancerTeam> Glad you asked. We are considering a print edition and are in contact with publishers. It is almost certain that there will a a print and we are discussing the details right now
[22:03] <+Lee> Excellent news!
[22:04] <+NeomancerTeam> we were surprised about the demand for a print and didnt include it at first
[22:10] <+Geek2theRight> mIRC just updated!
[22:10] <+MonkofLords> !
[22:10] <+NeomancerTeam> ?
[22:11] <+Lee> :s
[22:11] <+NeomancerTeam> dan is gone?
[22:11] <+MonkofLords> ((He should be around still)
[22:13] <+Geek2theRight> I can't tell any difference whatsoever, just like the last bazillion updates, but it updated! So did Steam!
[22:13] <+Lee> I appreciate you guys staying up into the wee hours of the morning to tell us about Neomancer; I'm now officially highly intrigued!
[22:14] <+NeomancerTeam> I'm happy to here that.
[22:14] <+NeomancerTeam> We are no big company, just 4 dudes who love cyberpunk
[22:15] <+NeomancerTeam> and its really nice that some people like our work so far
[22:15] <+Geek2theRight> ((Sorry!))
[22:17] <~Dan> (Sorry! Got distracted by IRL.)
[22:17] <+NeomancerTeam> np
[22:18] <~Dan> So in the time remaining, is there anything we havent' covered that you'd like to bring up?
[22:19] <+NeomancerTeam> no, just thank you for the invitation and I hope we could shed some light on our project
[22:19] <~Dan> You did indeed!
[22:20] <~Dan> If you can manage to hang on just a few minutes longer, I'll get the log posted and link you. 🙂
[22:20] <+NeomancerTeam> since its 5.20am and my team members are packing right now I just hope I could interest some of you for Neomancer. And maybe the Quick Start Rules will bring some of you a good time
[22:20] <+NeomancerTeam> ah,
[22:20] <+NeomancerTeam> that would be cool
[22:21] <+NeomancerTeam> thanks to Lee, Daytripper and the others


text: I was desperate for a walking partner so I told the girls to go get dressed for a walk. I was going to the reservoir, which is about a 3 mile walk, so I told them to make sure they had on shoes and socks. This is how they looked when they came downstairs. I'm not sure what decade they think we are in, but they were pretty excited about exercising.

Forthcoming from the the Catholic Apostolate Center! Great folks doing great work there. Their webinars include:
"Because talking fast, without pausing for reflection, is only noise..." St. Josemaria Escriva, The Way #85
The Family as Domestic Church: A Prophetic Witness Against Rugged Individualism
Edward J. Trendowski
Professor of Pastoral Theology, St. Joseph's College of Maine
November 25, 7:00pm EST
The recent Extraordinary Synod on the Family has garnered much attention. As a domestic church, a family can thrive when it is rooted in prayer and communal life, and when the family centers itself on the breaking of the bread (cf. Acts 2:42). The family can be a prophetic witness against the rugged individualism which is present all over the world. This webinar will focus on practical ways that a Catholic family can be a domestic church and also offer ideas for individuals to contemplate which deeply affect family life today.
Missionary Apostles for the 21st Century
Susan M. Timoney, S.T.D.

flexing mussels of the Northwest
The town of Coupeville on Whidbey Island is an hour and a half away from our humble market. You can take a 20 minute ferry ride from Mukilteo, just north of Everett. Or you can head even farther and cross the breathtakingly high bridge over Deception Pass onto this quiet, and scenic Puget Sound island filled with mom and pop stores, road side stands, farms and on this particular weekend: mussel festivals.
Mussels are available year round and the folks at Penn Cove Shellfish deliver their bounty every single day. Since 1975, this operation has been sustainably farming and harvesting shellfish and amazingly delivering the goods within 24 hours to dinner plates worldwide. You can eat in Singapore and see "Penn Cove Mussels" on the menu!
With the temperatures in Seattle hitting near 65 and the sun shining, Saturday at Mussel Festival was more like a Grateful Dead show than a gathering in Coupeville. The boat tours were sold out, the mussel eating competition you couldn't get a seat or a view, and all the chowders in town were empty by early afternoon. Pictures from the event graced the front page of the Times and the shopkeepers and restauranteurs in Coupeville definitely had good nights of sleep on saturday night.
Sunday however, the overcast skies of March returned and Coupeville was back in it's element. Dogs sat outside tied to the trees as folks with spoons, cups and punch cards for the chowder tastings and "mussel hustle" took over Coupeville for a second day.
"I'm so glad we came today and not yesterday, I heard it was mobbed," said one sunday attendee. The defending champion chowder at the restaurant Oystercatcher was all smiles with the sunday crowds. "We added a little more ruttabega and carrots this year to up the veggie taste." said the owner. People who paid a couple dollars were given a punch card that allowed them to taste up to six different mussel chowders throughout the town. At the end, punch cards were turned and compiled to crown a new mussel chowder champion for 2010.
Toby's tavern had a line out the door,dalmation seals layed out on the mussel flats, Flyers brewery had the suds a flowin', and yes, Scott came up short for year number two in the mussel eating competition.
"Although it was nice to see a fellow Pike Place friend, he looked a little nervous and that's not how you win an eating competition," said Place Pigalle owner Seth. Pigalle keeps mussels as a big presence on their menu and really seemed to be enjoying seeing the other side of their food.

Ryan Lock, from Chichester, who has been killed in northern Syria. © Family handout
BBC: Briton Ryan Lock 'killed himself' to avoid IS capture
A Briton fighting in Syria "turned the gun on himself" to avoid being taken prisoner by so-called Islamic State, Kurdish sources have told the BBC.
Ryan Lock, 20, from Chichester in West Sussex, died on 21 December during a battle for the IS group's stronghold of Raqqa.
He was fighting as a volunteer with the Kurdish armed fighting forces, the YPG.
The YPG told the BBC that "trace of a gunshot wound was found under the chin", suggesting suicide.
Sources said five fighters came under siege by IS - also known as ISIS - in the village of Ja'bar, and they showed "considerable resistance" before they were killed.
After the bodies were retrieved examinations showed that "it seems that the British fighter committed suicide in order not to fall captive with Isis".
A report said the gunshot wound indicated "that the gun made contact with the bottom of the chin".
"This suggests that the fighter committed suicide," it concluded.

This has to be the joke of the week , if not the year !
His ' Holiness and Righteousness ,G W Bush is planning to go on air and take Russia to task for invading it's neighbour. Seems our George deems such an act to be "completely unacceptable to the free nations of the world".
Sorry George , your invasion of Iraq , based as it was on lies , fabrications and greed, renders you the very last person to condemn this atrocity . Come on Bible Boy , remember those words, " Let him who is without sin cast the first stone "
So G W B roughly translated by a somewhat down to earth Mancunian female ,that means , " shut it ."
ps) Hey George, note you enjoyed your freebie time in China minus one word to those Tibet occupying Chinese ! A selective coward as well eh ?

Before you could realize it changed to a crusade with a demand to nuke them and on War on Terror in barely a few hours. How did this all change and change so dramatically? It was as mind boggling as the tragedy itself. After eight long years did any thing change? No. Did it get better or worse? Worse. Afghanistan is on fire so is Iraq both neo-con misadventures.
So where have we gone wrong? It is time to think and reflect while not giving an inch or an iota to the perpetrators. We have had time to chill out. However big the tragedy God has His ways of giving solace and comfort. Time is the big healer. Has any thing healed. I would hope to think in the positive but I do not have evidence of it.
Hoping that some self healing has taken place I would venture to say a few things and give solutions without delving into other things. To be very brief I think it is about time we did the following:
1. Solved the Palestine Problem
2. Solved the Kashmir Problem
3. Developed Afghanistan before leaving the place
4. Re-built Iraq and tendered an apology for killing 1.2 million Iraqis
5. Ensured that Justice prevailed in general in all places.
Just the other day pogroms took place in a place called Pune in India and the issue was swept under the carpet. Now if the frustration erupts somewhere the media frenzy would be of Muslims militants did this and that. This must not happen and it wont if the world community does not ignore injustices to people.
It is the duty of the world to ensure such injustices are not done to minorities any where in the world. Something happened to Christians in Ojra in Pakistan the whole world stood up. Where are the authors of doom who projected Ojra in the world through Washington Post too, why are they quite on Pune that has seen violence by Hindus on Muslims and so many Muslims suffering.
Saner elements among Muslims observe yet do nothing and while they should make a noise. Those sentimental who cannot raise voice will resort to violence. Now we do not have to give them the chance. If we are pro-active then the violent elements get marginalized and they should.
Lets give the impression of even handedness and fair play and let not those in power get away with murder.
I hope we have learnt some lessons for the peace and security of the world. I for one never condones any act of terrorism in any size form or shape. I am a firm believer and advocate that problems must be resolved on the desk with reasoning sans violence and early. Justice must be done and seen to be done and in time.

yay!!!!...lol. i can't wait for my week in university this time. like our first week had no labs cuz it was our well first week and no one was going to start anything anyway but this week its all labs.lol i get to wear my lab coat. for some reason i am the only one who likes this pharmacists attire and i love messing around with those little test tubes and huge instruments. always like it.
I do enjoy the physical attributes of being a pharmacist. like you say we are making "drugs". lol. you'd have some one thing that these kids are doing some wrong shit in those labs lol but in medicine language "drugs" are basically medicnes or anything that we use chemically. lol. real cool stuff. experimenting on plants, watching how everything seems to change colour. Besides it's the ultimate aim that is achieved from this profession. Making new "drugs" which may help people in the future. Right now we are just learning to make things like Asprin and what goes in them, the whole science of its workings in our body. And even though somtimes its a real pain what with all the chemistry and super scientific stuff ( i only find it a little tough at times because well i skipped grade 12 , as you all already know and sort of am a little behind on my chemistry compared to the rest of the class..lol.but im super smart of course..lol) and all the learning...i can hanlde it all just for the practicles. i mean i study all that and then get to implement it all....now thats what drives me to do more in a certain area of work...what drives you?..what gives you motivation?

Since Ferrari launched its new F1 car the F2007 on January 14th there has been much guffawing and finger-pointing going on amongst the rival technical directors in the sport.
Ferrari have opted this year to produce a car with a longer wheelbase which has been the source of much amusement. Meanwhile the rest of the grid have opted to produce cars with a shorter wheelbase to ensure better tyre management at the rear of the car. Have Ferrari lost their rubber marbles?
According to one source Ferrari have obviously been so engrossed in in-house fighting and bickering since Ross Brawn left (as Italians do according to Niki Lauda), that they have neglected to pay attention to the technical details needed to produce a championship winning car. Of course if Michael Schumacher hadn't been on gardening duty at the time none of this would have happened!
One rival pointed out of Ferrari's car "It's a high risk strategy and with all the changes they've had with staff, if it goes wrong they'll struggle." (C'mon this is Ferrari they like nothing better than cloak and dagger and high risk strategies…they don't feel they have done a good job unless the tifosi are really sweating it).
Sources inside the team have revealed that the reasons for the longer wheelbase are in fact quite sensible. Having a longer car yet the same enginer power and tyres as the opposition, could ensure you get to the first corner of the track first, takes longer for your rivals to overtake you and in a mad dash for the line you could get there a few centimetres earlier….maybe there is method to the madness after all.

Hi Guys,
here is catch up. I didn't do the walk yet. The Great Ocean walk. And Fine wasn't coming with me. She found a job somewhere else. But I definitely will do that. I am flying to the Airlie Beach Area. BECAUSE I go sailing for Christmas at the Whitsunday Island. I can't wait. I got that special offer. 5 nights and 5 days with everything included for 300$. That is awesome. I still have to find something for new year. Bronwynn actually came up with that offer, so I will accompanying her. We probably hike the National Park next to Airlie Beach for two days before we hit the sea=P
I leave on Monday to fly to Airlie Beach at 10 am. LALA
The last week I was at the Aquarium in Melbourne. It was awesome. There is a Jellyfish, the Box Jellyfish, it is the most dangerous sea animal. Marine animal? Whatever. But hopefully I don't touch it, or it me. Because I am flying to the area where it is supposed to live.
But I will be alright.
On Friday we went out. We were invading Brunswick Street. We started with 20 people, but in every club we lost someone.
We were at night club called night cat. It was just Carena, Andrew, Thomas and I. We were just right in time for the live band. I got some video and pictures of that. It was very cool.

The night was going to be very interesting. We meet up Andi, Paul etc. People from our hostel. So I came back about 5 am.
Man I was tired.
Saturday was an easy day. I was sleeping half the day. But I didn't miss anything.
Later on we looked at the photos from Friday night. Saturday night we played a game called goon/beer pong. There are 6 cups with either beer or goon and two pingpong balls. If you hit the glass then the team has to drink it. The loser is the team who has emptied all the cups.
England and Germany played ( I played for Germany) but we lost because of a stupid mistake from my partner. She hit the ball before it the table or the cup. TZ.
But we had lots of fun.
The evening was very relaxing. I went to bed about 3 am.
I even caught the free pancakes on Sunday morning. Sunday was quite amusing. About lunch time Carena ( english) and I went to the Botanic Garden in Melbourne. We finished our walk with a nice Scone and tea. For our walk home the weather decided to change dramatically. It started lashing.
We were completely wet when we arrived the hostel.
For Dinner Carena, Bronwynn and I went to a pub where you get roast meat for 10 $. That was very nice and tasty.
When I got home, I prepare my stuff for tomorrow. Man I already have to much stuff here. Hopefully it is not to much. I am allowed to bring 23 kg.
We see how it works out.
So tomorrow …. I am leaving Melbourne to discover more of the East Coast.
