My guest today is a very special lady. A teacher, speaker, wife, mom, and grandmother, Shirley Kiger Connolly writes both historical fiction romances laced with nuggets of inspiration for the growing believer and searching nonbeliever, and lighthearted devotional books of reflection. Shirley, an English and Journalism Major at college, is a graduate of Institute of Children's Literature and member of ACFW, FHL, and several RWAs. She and her husband presently live on the Southern Coast of Oregon. Thanks so much for dropping by today, Shirley.
Let's talk writing!
Anne - Tell us about your latest release.
Shirley - The title to this book, which is the first in my new DECISIONS series, is SAY GOODBYE TO YESTERDAY. Here is one of my blurbs, which I hope will entice you a little.
An unwed mother with a questionable past heads west to find the father of her daughters only to discover she is about to make the biggest mistake of her life.
Scorned with disgrace, Annabelle Jordan and her daughters are no longer welcome in her reverend uncle's community. In need of a fresh touch of grace, Annabelle's in no mood to seek mercy yet. Not after carrying on a continual affair with a young military officer long enough to produce two daughters before finally sending him away.
Now without a home, Annabelle's convinced her answer is to find her officer again and force that marriage he pledged but never kept. Who else would show interest in a soiled, aging woman over thirty with two growing children?
Of course, that was before Major
Radcliffe entered her life. How was Annabelle to know she would fall for someone beyond her reach, not only loyal to the faith she's been fleeing, but also pledged to a wife and family of his own? Carlton
Anne - It certainly does! What is the hardest part of writing for you?
Shirley - Getting through the first five chapters. I keep fixing and fixing and fixing, so it hinders my creativity to keep going. I have this thing about trying to make something perfect before I even get it down. I am the forever do it over lady, I guess.
Anne - What is the most surprising thing you've learned about yourself from writing?
Shirley - How much I still don't know. Although I've known since I was eight years old that I wanted to be a writer, I wasted lots of years NOT writing the stories of my heart. Now that I'm old, and not quite gray (that's the blessing of being a redhead, I guess), I get tired too easily, and can't seem to accomplish as much as I would like in the time that I have to accomplish it. (Does that make sense?)
Anne - Absolutely. I find I can waste hours online...and elsewhere! Outside of writing, what accomplishment are you most proud?
Shirley - Probably raising my children, and watching how they grew up and kept the values they were taught. That and teaching myself to play guitar, then write songs the Lord gave me. Also when I had the joy of putting together a small music group a few years back, where two other women and I sang harmony and shared our songs of the Lord with others. Being able to lead women in large study groups and seminars over the years is a blessed accomplishment to me. Anything I've done that has been of benefit to others in some way, whether by promoting or helping other authors, or helping women I meet be strengthened their faith by something I've shared or written. All these are blessings to me.
Anne - Quick. Your five favorites – author, actor, movie, song, quote.
Shirley - Author:
Actor: The James Stewart kind from the thirties through fifties and the Clark Gable kind from back then. The Bette Davis kind, and Olivia DeHavilland style. (I'm an old movie buff.) Newer? Tom Hanks kind of guys, or Mel Gibson types. For the ladies? Meg Ryan style.
Movie: All the classics from the forties. The newer ones? BRAVEHEART, GLADIATORS, or lighthearted SLEEPLESS IN SEATTLE kind.
SONG: Classics are my favorite. Love Mozart pieces.
Quote: I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me… Just one of many.
(That's a hard question, Anne!)
Anne - LOL. You answered it perfectly! Would you provide an excerpt from Say Goodbye to Yesterday?
Shirley - Here you go:
At that very moment, she sensed a compelling, potent magnetism unlike anything she'd experienced, as if the major had always been a part of her, as if God had fused the two of them together like an intangible bond. But would God have a hand in doing such a thing between two people like the major and her?
He pulled away then reached gently for her again. His fingers came around to push a stray tendril of hair away from her cheek.
After the warm and sweet, lingering kiss that followed, Annabelle blinked her eyes,
catching sight of the ring on the major's left hand. She instantly withdrew herself, lowering her chin. "I shouldn't be allowing any of this. It's wrong. I'm sorry."
How could she have forgotten that ring and what Cousin Philip had told her? How could she have been so thoughtless? Not only was this man of strong faith, he had a wife of his own.
"I -- I...please forgive me." Annabelle's heart fell into her stomach.
"No, Annabelle,"
"You didn't invade my space. I invaded yours. I caused you to--" She studied the ring he wore with more interest, feeling her cheeks flush hotter. "And you a married man."
"Me, married?"
Anne - Ach! You're leaving us hanging like that?! Say Goodbye to Yesterday is a book I need to read! Where can readers reach you online?
Shirley - At my website, or my blog or my publisher's site or my author page at Facebook.
Say Goodbye to Yesterday is available at all online stores, and at Desert Breeze Publishing and also at Christian Book Distributors.
Watch for my Book Release celebration over at my Facebook Author Page!
Anne - Thank you for dropping by, Shirley. As always, it's been a pleasure!

Earlier in the week I encouraged you all to celebrate the first day of fall by taking some photos and said if you sent them to me, I'd post them on the blog. So, here they are. Tracey Allen sent in a few and I'm sharing a few of mine as well. If you're out and about today, pay attention to the details in nature. Fall shows those details more than any other time of the year. Enjoy!

"There are parts of life that are so difficult and beautiful that we can hardly live through them."
I don't know if that is a Judy Cook original quote, but I'm giving her credit. It's the most accurate statement I can fathom right now.
Today was another difficult day. They're all starting to run together, really. I think its Wednesday, but honestly it takes me a few seconds to figure out what day of the week we are on at the moment. This morning I met Dad and Jason at the funeral home, along with Pam's sister and brother, to make her arrangements. Most of the morning was fairly easy - the gentlemen from the funeral home kept the mood light in all the right places. A lot of what we needed to do was sort of easy- filling out forms, listing names for the obituary, figuring out times, etc. That wasn't bad.
Then we stepped into the casket room and the mood took a dive. It's like all these tiny little steps that we have to take make it more real every second. Dad had a few moments in there as we let him decide what color she would have liked, which one he wanted to use, etc. It's hard to keep the mood light when your surrounded by caskets, really, but we managed and everyone was pleased with his choice.
Flowers, songs, arrangements...each little check mark brings us closer to the end of this leg of the journey. Tomorrow we will take a big step when we get to see her again, and then another big step as we receive family and friends for the visitation.
One step at a time, because there are parts of life that are so difficult and beautiful that we can hardly live through them.

Commandment no. 8: Make Money Work For You
Francisco Colayco teaches us his 8th commandment on personal finance.
Make Money Work For You!
Sometimes borrowing money is not bad if you know where to use it. A debt is good if you are able to invest this and earn more than the interest rate of the debt. Just make sure to pay back on time so as not to increase your debt because like your savings, your debt can also compound in interest.

21/7/11 2 Kings 18-19, 2 Chronicles 32, James 5
S: 2 Kings 18:4 He removed the pagan shrines, smashed the sacred pillars, and cut down the Asherah poles. He broke up the bronze serpent that Moses had made, because the people of Israel had been offering sacrifices to it. The bronze serpent was called Nehushtan.
O: Back when the Israelites were on their exodus from Egypt to the land of Canaan, at one point, they again grumbled against Moses, and God sent fiery serpents among them to punish them. When they repented, God told Moses to make a bronze fiery serpent and put it on a pole, and everyone who was bitten by a fiery serpent could look at it and be healed. (Numbers 21:4-9).
But then centuries later, this real, genuine, and true relic became an object of idolatry. The Jews had started worshipping it instead of God! So Hezekiah, in his reforms to lead the people back to the One True God, destroyed it.
A: What in our churches, in our lives, is in danger of becoming like that? Is there anything that we're so set in our ways that when things should be changed, we resist the change, to the detriment of the Gospel?
For example, for a long time, many churches had a rule, "All women must wear dresses to church." In recent years, most churches have dropped this rule because the original purpose was lost and now it became a hindrance to welcoming modern women to the church.
I was trying to think, are there any such things in my life right now? Didn't come up with anything right this moment, but if there are, will have to ask the Lord to show me.
P: Father, are there any such "Nehushtans" in my life right now? If so, please show me and then give me the courage and wisdom to deal with them. In Jesus' name, amen.
I listen to the Focus on the Family daily podcasts, but am several months behind. So as a result, I just listened to the 7 April and 8 April podcasts last night and this morning during my commute.
These podcasts featured an interview with Rev. Timothy Keller on the topic of Examining Our Faith and it turned out to be really relevant to the above meditation, and really touched me.
In the first podcast, he talked about things that become idols in our lives as people who seek to follow Christ today -- precisely the question about Nehushtan. In the second podcast, he talked about balancing not making an idol out of our political action, and the older brother in the story of the Prodigal Son parable.
Wow, talk about relevant! Both regarding yesterday's LifeJournal as well as regarding what we face today with BERSIH etc. American Christians are also facing a government that they largely disagree with today, with Obama's promotion of homosexuality and abortion. So although Tim Keller is speaking in an American context, it's highly relevant to us as Malaysian Christians.
So I highly recommend these two podcasts:

Who was the first person to have a cup of coffee? Who decided that putting meat between two slices of bread was a good idea? Discover the answers to these questions and more with this list of our favorite food origin stories! We can't exactly guarantee that these stories are all historically accurate, but even if they aren't true they are still fun to think about.
A popular origin story for coffee is that a goat herder named Kaldi discovered the beans after noticing that his goats were acting strange. Kaldi observed that his herd became very energetic (some versions say his goats were dancing) after eating the beans off of a certain shrub. After realizing the unique properties of these (coffee) beans, Kaldi took them to a local monastery to try to make sense of what to do with them (Monks were the most education men of the time). The head of the monastery thought that the beans were evil and he threw them in a fire. However, after smelling the delicious aroma of the beans roasting the head monk reconsidered, and made a beverage out of them. Go figure!
The 4th Earl of Sandwich, John Montagu, of England apparently invented the sandwich as a result of not wanting to allow his gambling to be interrupted. The story goes that the Earl was hungry but did not want to quit playing cards. Montagu wanted something that he could eat while continuing to play, so he asked a waiter to bring him a slice of ham between two pieces of bread. Now the Earl could eat with one hand and play cards with the other, problem solved.
Unlike some of these origins the discovery of the popsicle is more likely to be true than not. An 11 year old boy named Frank Epperson invented the popsicle after attempting to make a sugary beverage. According to Popsicle.com in 1905 Epperson accidentally left a soda mixture outside with a stirring stick still in it. When temperatures fell below freezing overnight, Epperson came back to a rudimentary version of what would become the Popsicle.
Shennong, the Chinese emperor around 2700 BC, is attributed with discovering this extremely popular beverage. Do to health concerns, Shennong had issued a decree that water had to be boiled before being consumed. One day while he was waiting for his freshly boiled water to cool, a few leaves from a nearby tea-plant blew into his pot of water. Shennong noticed that the tea had affected the flavor of his water! The rest is history.
Ranch Dressing
Like the Popsicle, Ranch Dressing also has a historically verifiable origin. It was definitely invented by Steve Henson in the 1950s, and its name is comes from an actual ranch!
Stenson and his wife owned Hidden Valley Ranch, an establishment where guests could enjoy the outdoors and see what life was like on a ranch. The Stensons would serve Steve's original Ranch dressing to their guests, and it became wildly popular. At one point the Stensons decided to start commercially manufacturing the sauce. Eventually the Stensons' product was bought out by Clorox brand, and evolved into the most popular condiment in America!
Next time you're shopping at your local Sparkle Market take a second to think about how your favorite food items came to be!

Yesterday afternoon Madeline told me to "Come, quickly! You've GOT to see Margo". As I walked into the living room, this is what I saw. It just so happens that David was walking in the backdoor from work! Margo was singing in nothing but her Minnie Mouse ears! Somehow, I think her sisters may have encouraged her to perform on the coffee table...naked! This child is such a mess!

I fondly call my son "teen support", mainly because he built and regularly fixes my computer for me. (handy eh?) That, and he regularly finds cool and sometimes very distracting stuff online for me. Ohhh Reddit... why did I even start you?! Anyhow, he found these two sites and I can now have soft relaxing delta wave loops (or anything relaxing), and nice rain drops playing all night should I feel in need of (yet another) sleep aid. Maybe you would have found these on your own, perhaps you already have, here's hoping some poor sleepless sod may find the links useful. Sweet dreams :D
My wonderful son spent some serious time looking for music that would relax me. He done good! Check it out ->

If you are already making a Matcha Cake and Matcha Meringues…you might as well just go for the complete kitchen explosion of Matcha and make Matcha Hot Chocolate right?!
Okay so I don't know if the total matcha overload was completely necessary…But it was all delicious so whatever. (Also more than a "recipe" I think this should be called "Things Maddie Likes All Thrown Into The Same Pan"….. so feel free to change the ratio to your own liking and taste without feeling like you are cheating or going against the recipe).
In the US it is relatively hard to find matcha lattes, and when you do find them (Starbucks does carry them even though they aren't on the menu) they tend to taste more like milk and vanilla than the earthy, grassy, bitter matcha that I know and love. Japan–especially my short time in Kyoto–spoiled me for life. (Though that doesn't stop me from getting matcha/green tea lattes whenever they are on a menu! Also wow am I using a lot of parenthesis today…lol)
So instead of trusting that I will find matcha lattes out and about, I started making them at home. And one day I was contemplating how delicious matcha was with white chocolate and wondered why I had never combined the two flavors into one magnificent drink before. It is actually ridiculously simple, and I'm not sure why I don't make these every day. Probably because matcha sadly doesn't go great with coffee and a morning without coffee is something I don't even want to think about.
These three ingredients are literally all you need–and even then you could increase or decrease to suit your personal taste or what you have on hand. The white chocolate adds an extra creaminess to the milk and offers a sweetness to offset the bitterness of the matcha without being overwhelmingly sweet. You could also easily swap out the whole milk for a non-dairy milk such as coconut milk if you prefer.
One downside to this drink is that as it cools the chocolate, matcha and milk will separate and begin to thicken, so it is best to serve it and drink it as soon as it is made–its not the best drink to make ahead or make in large quantities.
I made a larger than normal batch and added a handful of spices for a chai variation–that was also delicious. When people think of chai they often think of black tea, but I like my chai equally well with green teas, which is how I got the idea to add the spices into my hot cocoa. I love chai about as much as I love matcha, so the combination is basically my idea of heaven, but if you are easily overwhelmed and over stimulated by flavors and recipes with a long list of ingredients, maybe stick with the three ingredient version 😉
Matcha White Hot Chocolate
recipe from my imagination, I'm not stealing this from anyone
1 cup whole milk (or your milk of choice)
1 tablespoon matcha (or however much you like/can handle, I like it strong)
1oz white chocolate, chopped
1. Place the milk in a sauce pan over medium heat and bring to a simmer.
2. Turn the heat to low and whisk in your matcha and chocolate. Continue whisking until everything is completely combined and warmed through.
3. I like to use a milk frother to steam/froth some of my milk to add to the top of my hot chocolate, and I also top my mug with a dusting of matcha so it looks pretty. That is not necessary, even if it is adorable.
Serve immediately. (And with cake if you are feeling decadent 😛 )
Chai Variation:
Add the following into your pan with the milk, and strain the mixture before pouring into a mug:
1 cinnamon stick
1 star anise
3 cardamom pods, crushed
4 cloves
1/8 teaspoon powdered ginger

If you're looking for a GPS watch for trail running or ultramarathons, two watches to consider are the Garmin fenix 3 and Suunto Ambit3 Peak.
I have already written a review of both the Garmin fenix 3 and the Suunto Ambit3 Peak Sapphire. However, I thought a separate post specifically comparing the two watches would be useful.
Since I use the watches for running, this post is primarily oriented toward running. However, both watches are capable of much more. They are truly multi-sport watches; capable of handling a triathlon and other activities. Unfortunately, I haven't had the opportunity to test many of these features (since I don't swim or ride often) so my comments are primarily geared toward trail and ultra-running.
I've been running with the Garmin fenix 3 since this past March 2015. Overall, it has served me fairly well. I used it during The North Face Endurance Challenge GORE-TEX 50 Mile race in April 2015 and it performed flawlessly.
However, it has also frustrated me on a few occasions. For a few weeks in October, it was taking a long time to acquire satellites. It turned out there was a GPS firmware update that wasn't being applied.
Then during the JFK 50 Mile race in November, the fenix 3 lost satellite reception for about five miles on the Appalachian Trail. It finally re-acquired a GPS signal once I left the trail and started on the C&O Canal towpath part of the course.
So while the Garmin fenix 3 has worked well overall, those few nagging issues always made me want to try the Suunto Ambit3 Peak and see how it performed. So when I saw the Ambit3 Peak Sapphire on sale, my curiosity finally got the best of me and I decided to give it a try.
Now that I have used the Ambit3 Peak for about 6 weeks, below are my thoughts on how it and the fenix 3 compare.
GPS Acquisition / Accuracy
GPS acquisition and accuracy are the main reasons why I was curious about the Ambit3 Peak. If you browse the Garmin fenix 3 forums, you will see many threads about the accuracy issues of the fenix 3. Inevitably, someone in these threads will bring up the Ambit3 Peak and talk about how it "just works".
This made me curious. As I mentioned above, I had experienced some issues with the fenix 3, although not as many as some in these forums. In general, I would say that mine has performed well overall. There have been a few issues, but no device is perfect.
However, those comments peaked my curiosity and it was going to be hard to let it go. Does the Ambit3 Peak have better GPS accuracy? How do these two watches compare?
First, let me say that my testing was not scientific. Nor do I have as many runs in the Ambit3 Peak as I do in the fenix 3.
Below are few screen captures of a portion of the Rehoboth Beach Marathon, in which I wore both the fenix 3 and Ambit3 Peak.
The fenix 3 is in orange and the Ambit3 Peak is blue.
As you can see, the Ambit3 Peak tracks (blue) were consistently inside the fenix 3 tracks (orange). The Ambit3 Peak tracks were generally on the road or trail whereas the fenix 3 tracks were often off the road or trail completely. This was consistent for the full marathon.
In this run, it is easy to see that the Ambit3 Peak performed better.
However, here is another run on a trail in my neighborhood. Again, the fenix 3 is in orange and the Ambit3 Peak is blue.
In this case, the fenix 3 tracks were inside the Ambit3 tracks. In this instance, I would say that the fenix 3 performed better.
I could go on with examples. In some cases, the Ambit3 Peak seemed to have the better tracks. In other cases, the fenix 3 seemed better.
However, if I had to make a call between the two, I would say the Ambit3 Peak was probably more consistent overall.
The same is true regarding acquisition time. The Ambit3 Peak always locked onto a GPS signal within a few seconds. Rarely have I had it go longer than 5 seconds. In most cases, the fenix 3 is also similarly fast. However, in my experience, the fenix 3 has been less consistent. I've experienced the fenix 3 taking 1 minute, 3 minutes, and upwards of 20 minutes to lock onto the GPS signal. When I've run with the two watches together, the Ambit 3 Peak was consistently a few seconds faster.
One additional item of note. Garmin supports GLONASS, which is the Russian satellite system. This theoretically might give in better accuracy in some situations. However, I haven't noticed much of a difference in my area.
So overall, I would say that the Ambit3 Peak has the slight edge in this category.
Winner: Slight edge for Ambit3 Peak. However, from my limited testing, it was not as drastic a difference as you might be led to believe by reading the forums.
Battery Life
Another factor that I look for in comparing two watches is the battery life. When I run an ultramarathon, I want to be sure my watch can last the entire run.
First, what do the specifications claim?
Garmin fenix 3 – The fenix 3 has two GPS modes to adjust battery life:
- In normal GPS mode (one GPS update per second) – 20 hours.
- In UltraTrac mode (approximately 15 seconds of GPS on-time per 60 seconds) – 50 hours.
Suunto Ambit 3 Peak – The Ambit3 Peak has three GPS modes to adjust battery life:
- In the best GPS mode (one GPS update per second) – 20 hours.
- In one GPS update per 5 second mode – 30 hours.
- In one GPS update per 60 second mode – 200 hours.
To be clear, there are other settings that will impact battery such as Bluetooth, notifications, connected sensors (i.e., heart rate monitor), etc.
To test the battery, I tried to maximize the battery life by disabling Bluetooth, Wi-Fi (fenix 3 only), sensor support, and anything else I could think of that might reduce battery life.
Then, I simply charged the watches fully and let them lock onto GPS satellites. I then started a running activity and just let the watches run for as long as they could. I set the watches in my car, near the back windshield so they could see the GPS satellites all the time. It wasn't ideal, but it was the best place I had that had a clear view of the sky and would be secure.
The results are as follows. In both cases, I synced the respective activities to Garmin Connect and Suunto Movescount to view the resulting times.
The Ambit3 Peak recorded the activity for just over 21:00:28 (21 hours and 28 seconds) before it automatically stopped the activity and went into power save mode. It had about 3% battery left when I retrieved it.
The fenix 3, on the other hand, lasted for only 16:45:19 (16 hours, 45 minutes, and 19 seconds). The fenix 3 also appeared to shut down completely with 0 percent battery left.
In summary, the Ambit3 Peak battery lasted for about 4 hours and 15 minutes longer than the fenix 3.
There is one caveat, however. I have used the fenix 3 for about 8 months while the Ambit3 Peak was fairly new. So that could account for some of the battery difference. However, I find that over 4 hours is still a lot of difference.
In addition, as mentioned above, the Ambit3 Peak has more battery configuration options and one option that allows the watch to last approximately 200 hours in activity recording mode.
So, overall, I'm giving this win to the Ambit3 Peak.
Winner: Ambit3 Peak
I'll be honest, this once surprised me a bit.
I fully expected the Garmin fenix 3 to be more comfortable due to how the band is designed. In the fenix 3, the GPS antenna is in the bezel, so the band is fully flexible where it attaches to the watch face. See the picture below.
I would expect that this allows the watch to fit a wide variety of wrist sizes. I used to run in the Garmin Forerunner 610, which didn't have the flexible band and I didn't find that as comfortable.
The Ambit3 Peak, on the other hand, has the GPS antenna where the watch face attaches to the band. In addition, where the band attaches to the watch face is not as flexible. See the picture below. The GPS antenna is on the right side.
Due to these differences and my past experience with the similarly designed Forerunner 610, I expected the fenix 3 to be more comfortable.
However, surprisingly, I found the Ambit3 Peak to be the more comfortable of the two watches. Despite the lack of flexibility where the band connects to the watch, I felt that the Ambit 3 Peak fit me perfectly. In addition, the underside of the Ambit 3 has smooth and rounded edges. The fenix 3, on the other hand, has flatter and more rough edges. In addition, the Sapphire band is very soft and smooth. So overall, the Ambit 3 Peak had less movement when running and just disappeared on my wrist.
Don't get me wrong, the fenix 3 is plenty comfortable, but for me, the Ambit3 Peak was just more comfortable overall.
Again, one caveat. Due to the lack of flexibility in where the band meets the watch, the Ambit3 may not fit all wrist sizes well. So if you have a extra large or extra small wrists, the fenix 3 may be a better choice due to the extra flexibility.
Winner: Ambit3, but this is a personal preference.
I won't spend much time on this one since I think it is subjective. Both watches look very good. However, I think the fenix 3 looks better overall. With the GPS antenna in the bezel, the watch has a more sleek look. If I had to choose a watch to wear every day based on looks alone, I would choose the fenix 3.
Winner: fenix 3
Display / Screen
This one isn't subjective. There is really no contest. The fenix 3 has the better display / screen. It has higher resolution which makes it easier to read. In addition, the blacks are blacker and it has color. Overall, the display on the fenix 3 is outstanding. The Ambit3 Peak display is adequate, but looks like an old pixelated calculator. There were often times in the high sun, that I found the Ambit3 display difficult to read.
Winner: fenix 3 by a wide margin.
Both watches have a multitude of features such as track recording, barometric altimeter, compass, navigation, weather, track back, and other various sports metrics such as cadence, power, etc.
In addition, both watches are multi-sport watches and can support running, swimming, biking, hiking, and a number of other activities. Both watches have a multi-sport mode to support triathlons, where you can switch from one sport to another within the same GPS recording activity.
Both watches support pairing with external sensors. The Ambit3 only supports Bluetooth sensors, whereas the fenix 3 supports ANT sensors. At least for the moment, the fenix 3 support of ANT sensors probably provides the most options in external sensor support.
However, there are a few key differences in features between the two watches.
First and foremost, the fenix 3 supports vibration alerts. To me, this is one of the biggest features lacking on the Ambit3. The Ambit3 has tone alerts, but when running with headphones, as I sometimes do on long runs, it is not always easy to hear the tone. I try not to look at my watch when I run as doing so makes the run seem that much longer. However, without vibration alerts on the Ambit3, I find that I have to look at the watch more often to make sure I don't miss my turn around point.
In addition, the fenix 3 allows you to change all settings on the watch, outside setting up the WiFi network connection. The Ambit 3 requires the use of the website or phone to change certain settings and to set up the activity sport screens. See my review of the Ambit3 Peak for more discussion of this. This can be a big deal if you are without internet or data connection to the Movescount website. If the website goes down or if you are without data connection, you are simply unable to change any of these settings.
Also, the fenix 3 supports four data fields per screen and the Ambit3 Peak only supports 3 data fields per screen.
Furthermore, besides connecting via USB to a computer, the fenix 3 supports both WiFi and Bluetooth (via phone) synchronization. The Ambit3 only supports USB and Bluetooth.
Lastly, the fenix 3 supports a GLONASS satellite mode, but I haven't noticed much difference with this enabled. However, I imagine future Suunto Ambit watches will support GLONASS since it is supported on the new Suunto Traverse.
So overall, I think the Garmin fenix 3 has more features that I care about than the Suunto Ambit3 Peak.
Winner: fenix 3
How well it works
The last comparison is a catch-all category for how well the watch works.
While many people complain about the GPS accuracy on the fenix 3, I find that it is adequate. I do get frustrated at the long GPS acquisition times on random occasion. However, it does eventually acquire the GPS signal. I find that if I sync the Garmin via USB more often instead of over WiFi or Bluetooth, then the acquisition time improves. This may have something to do with caching the GPS satellite positions. I believe the satellite cache is supposed to be updated via WiFI as well, but perhaps this is not the case.
However, I have observed that running cadence is one feature on the Ambit3 Peak which simply does not work well at all.
Both watches have an internal accelerometer to measure running cadence based on wrist movements. However, refer to the screen captures below of the running cadence measurements from the Rehoboth Beach Marathon. Notice how the Ambit3 Peak is much more flakey and has frequent drop-outs. I've noticed this in almost all of my runs with the Ambit3. The running cadence measurement just isn't reliable and often drops-outs when you increase the pace.
I contacted Suunto and they said that the accelerometer on the watch is defective and I should send it in for repair. So you might think that my watch is just a rare case of a defective hardware component.
However, when I look at other peoples runs in Strava that use the Ambit3, I notice the same thing. There seem to be cadence issues on a majority of the activities I see. So it appears that my watch is not just an isolated case. Perhaps others don't mind the flakiness of this feature, but it annoys me nonetheless. Due to the apparent prevalence of this issue, I don't have confidence that if I send the watch back to Suunto or if I purchased another Ambit3 Peak, the issue won't still be there.
Others may have a different experience or may have other issues with the fenix 3. But in my experience, the fenix 3 doesn't have a feature that is as flakey as this.
Maybe I am being a little unfair to the Ambit3. If you don't care about running cadence, then the Ambit3 Peak functions perfectly. In addition, running cadence isn't a key feature of the watch. It has great GPS acquisition and accuracy, perhaps slightly better than the fenix 3. However, with the frequency I have seen the running cadence issue in the activities of others, it makes me think that Suunto has an outstanding hardware or software issue they need to address. And with that, I have to give this category to the fenix 3.
Winner: fenix 3
While there are many areas in which I could compare the two watches, I tried to capture the major areas that I would consider when deciding between the two watches. Others may have different opinions or other areas of importance. If so, let me know in the comments below and I'll respond with my thoughts.
Overall, if GPS quality and battery life are your most important factors (and they are arguably the two most important factors for an ultramarathoner), the Ambit3 Peak is the winner.
However, the fenix 3 excels at other features such as vibration alerts, display quality, and quality of other non-GPS related features such as cadence and external sensor support.
So in the end, both are excellent watches. When making a decision between the two, you just need to decide which features are more important to you. For now, I'll be returning the Ambit3 Peak due to the internal accelerometer and cadence issue. However, I may still give it another try if I see a good deal in the future.

This is one of my favourite recipes. Mainly because I made it up and everyone loves it so that makes me feel squishy inside. And secondly because it requires zero measuring or weighing just a lot of 'judging' by eye. My favourite sort of baking!
Get some pears. I used 8. Tonight I used fresh so I peeled, cored and chopped them (roughly).
While I was doing this, Will was making the crumble. Crumble is such an ace thing for kids to make – they can't really go wrong AND they get to get their hands dirty. What's not to love?
I used a whole block of butter (250g), a heap of flour (I would estimate 400g) and a pile of sugar (half a packet so I reckon about 500g). I don't like my crumble healthy.
I sloshed a healthy amount of port over the pears (that I'd put in the crumble dish), covered them with foil and put them in the oven at 150 degrees centigrade for almost 2 hours. I checked on them every now and then and gave them a stir and a splash more port. Ahem.
While this was happening I got involved with the crumble.
It's for tomorrow night so I had time to take the pears out the oven and leave them to cool, still under the foil, before putting the quite frankly unnecessary amount of crumble on top. Tomorrow I will bake it for around 45 minutes until it is golden and bubbly and then eat it with plenty of cream.
Bloody lovely.

Id rather get the shield.
This looks like a sweet box nicely designed, better than the XONE.
In Terms of Looks
Steambox > X1 > Ps4.
I got my PS4 already and have no intention to pickup x1 or Steambox unless something changes on a regular gaming PC :)
Get them on PC they are better and cheaper, and dont really require a powerhouse of a machine!
This is why it is good to have an open mind for all gaming platforms. The PC allows is backwards compatable, and we dont have to worry about REPURCHASE to get un part with higher quality.
Since there is no backwards compatiblity I would be nice to have the 1st party titles remade (not just a simple resolution update)
I just got my PS4 its nice to finally have a nice update in terms of power, but who says cheaper is always is the better experience. I only got two games COD and KZ.
While killzone is nice graphically for some reason I got bored after 2 hours of play. I went back to COD and playing it straight through and enjoying it.
Other than that I don't really see much other games to play on the system since Knack is not inspiring IMO, and the rest of the games can...
I am trying to sell my ps3 before it becomes worthless ;)
AGREED, I mean come on you can get TR for 10 bucks on PC easily nowadays, and it is TRULY the definite edition.
But For a game like TLOU that is not multiplatform they should release it for 40 dolalrs on PS4.
If they sell it for above 20 dollars it is a rip.
You can find it on sale constantly online for PC for 10$
PC gaming is Dead /s
I am thankful that North America has 2 Thanksgiving Days :):)
Yup's happens to EVERY console generation. Everytime I get a new console, I feel like I am waiting for games.
Why because you are truly waiting for the developer to MAKE the games for that system specifically.
I'll give you a good recent example. Imagine you somehow lose your PS3 either by selling it or it breaking down, but you wanted to play games like Gran Turismo.
1) you either tough it out and purchase a new PS3
2) y...
The only thing I felt held back is the way the game mechanics have developed.
I.e. slower movement of games and rechargeable health, slight or FULL autoaim in FPS games. Other than that the graphics since Doom 1 Have always been superior in my eyes on a PC. I would say Consoles are only playing catch up because PC gamers have been playing so many versions of Shooters
I am still stuck in using a mouse and KB as a primary choice of control scheme. Till that ...
who says PC games are NOT optimized.... this is another argument that Console only players like to throw around.
Ill give you a good example. I had an Radeon x1900TX long ago, which is the same GPU as the Xbox 360, yet Gears of War ran better, at higher resolution, and higher quality graphics vs the Xbox.
I am sure many PC gamers own consoles also, but it is the Console only players that tend to make the console seem better than it really is.
You know most PC gamers do not always put gaming in mind. They build a computer for not just gaming, but for other things.
same goes both ways, console gamers love to compare false facts with how powerful a console is and all of sudden when the facts hit them they just simply put a blind eye on it.
The truth is both Consoles and PC games have their exclusives! ( this is what sells consoles), but there is no denying that a MID> HIGH RANGE PC gaming rig is much more powerful and can churn out better graphics. And dont get me going on the gameplay argument. All platforms have GAMEPLAY!
well the saying goes BOTH ways.
PPL who exclude consoles miss on the console exclusives
PPL who exclude PC gaming miss out on PC exclusives, better graphics, and better control flexibility.
umm NO!
The PS4 GPU is basically a Radeon 7800 series chip. Let alone I am sure this is the mobile version.
PC gamers have been experiencing SMOOTH 1080p gaming for a LONG time. All I can say is Console gamers WELCOME TO 1080p gaming, this is the reason why console only gamers are so awed because they never really experienced this type of quality before.
Give it 2 years we will start seeing developers having to cut back due to the static na...
It is sporadic, because I see alot of ppl are giving it benefit of doubt because it is a LAUNCH title. That should be NO excuse or reason to inflate the scores.
I thought it was all about gameplay in the eyes of console players??? ;)
I am waiting to play it in Decemember (console not in yet), and from the previews it seems somewhat decent shooter. I am not getting my hopes up! I am sure its going to be an ok shooter in my eyes.
sometimes it is not always about power, but features. Lets hope xbox can promise those so called features, or they are doomed at year 2.
so are ppl still convinced that a 400>500 $ machine can beat out a PC gaming rig, let alone a gaming laptop?.
The GPU is the most important part of gaming for the past 15 years, and this component in the current consoles only cost ~ 100> 150$

I keep hearing about how Sydney needs sustainable growth and how this means we need to build high density housing in urban infill sites close to existing facilities. Since those people really take their sustainability seriously, I thought we should really look longer term than just the 25 year NSW Metropolitan Plans and gaze 100 years into the future.
According to the UN predictions, world population will max out at about 11 billion in 100 years, up from 7 billion now. I suppose world population growth has to slow down and nearly stop at some point, it's just not sustainable. Other predictions put the percentage of people to be living in urban areas to get to about 80%, up from the current level of 50%. Putting these two predictions together, we can guess that Sydney will need to house 2.5 times its current population 100 years from now.
Now the most sustainable thing would be to even out this growth as much as possible. I'm not sure what happens after the 100 years. I guess the construction industry can sustainably recycle decrepit buildings and focus on upgrading the existing housing stock. Therefore a constant annual growth rate of about 1% will do the trick because (1+0.01)^100=2.7 times larger which is more than enough.
Further, I guess in the long term, it would be sustainable to share the burden of growth equally between density growth and total area growth. In other words, in 100 years Sydney would be 60% larger in area and 60% denser. (1.6^2=2.56 again more than enough.) On a per annum basis, we need 0.5% density growth and 0.5% area growth. For greenfield areas, you need to match the average density of the rest of Sydney, which probably means a bit smaller than your quarter acre block. For already populated areas, the growth is 0.5% annually, achieved through increased density.
But hang on! The City of Sydney LGA population is growing at 3% annually. That's unsustainable! We have to slow down rapidly to 0.5%! Better knock back nearly all of those projects currently on the table.
Therein lies the problem. If we are really and truly committed to sustainability, we have to sustain unsustainability itself. Good old fashioned unsustainability should be heritage listed and preserved for future generations to learn from our folly. There really is no alternative but to sustain the current system - business as usual.
[Postscript: At first, I used 100 year UN predictions and urbanisation levels to predict Sydney population only half seriously, but then discovered the City of Sydney's own population predictions up to 2036 levelling out to 1% growth per annum which is exactly the same as what I came up with.

If you're a first time camper then you don't want to spend much on camping gear, especially when you might not like it. On a sunshiny day, few things are better than an evening outside the tent, but if you're unfortunate and the hail comes in horizontally from the west, I'm willing to bet you won't be going again.
I recommend giving it a try on the cheap before you fork out too much. Here's a few options.
Buying a Tent
If you're an average family (if there is such a thing) and have a couple of kids then you would think a 4 person tent would be good enough. Think again. A four person tent is design to fit four people lying on their backs on regulation sized sleeping mats. That's not your family. You need a bit of room so I would recommend at least a 5 or even a 6 person tent. Look at the next section and you'll understand why.
Sleeping Arrangements
Air beds take up a lot of room but I recommend you get some because a weekend of no sleep could be the end of your camping dreams. Forget about the foam mats, they are just torture, get one double air bed (if you're on speaking terms) and two singles, you won't regret it.
If you're camping in the summer you'll be able to get by with two season sleeping bags which are fairly cheap. Take some thermals and a blanket just in case.
The Kitchen
Those kids need grub. You could take them to the pub but if you want to save a bit then invest in a stove. All you need is a single burner and some butane gas and that'll sort out all the meals. Get some bacon, some sausages and any other meat product you can think of and off you go.
Forget about pots and pans just dig into the back of your cupboards and grab some old stuff. All you need is a pan, a frying pan, knives, forks and a few cups and you're ready to go. Buy a big bottle of water and some washing up liquid on the way.
Other gear you might need from the house
Don't forget some soap for your pits and your toothbrush and towel. Toilet roll is useful I find. If you have torches take them along. Grab some warm clothes just in case and that's it. Hope you enjoy it.

My lab studies how the different cell types in the liver, in particular the hepatocyte, are generated during development, patterned and maintained during adulthood, and regenerate after injury. Our long-term goals are to improve the understanding of liver disease pathophysiology and develop novel methods of treatment for liver diseases, including cell replacement therapy. Currently, we have two major research focuses: 1) understanding the biology of adult hepatocyte stem cells and 2) developing a liver cell atlas. We take innovative and integrated approaches to address these two areas using the tools of stem cell biology, developmental biology, genomics and tissue engineering.
I also study the porphyrias, a group of inherited diseases related to defects in heme synthesis pathway. I am a member of the Porphyrias Consortium, a NIH sponsored Rare Disease Clinical Research Consortium. The purpose of the network is to integrate translational studies of the porphyrias with clinical trials testing new therapeutics.

Why would I post a can of Spam on my blog? Wait, does that mean I am admitting that I OWN a can of Spam? YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT DOES! NOT because I would even consider eating it, but because I will puree and pump this stuff through my boys stomach with pure joy & relief!
Let me explain....Dawson is allergic to Soy, Dairy, Wheat, Oats, Eggs, Nuts...yep, just about everything but dirt! We are constantly on a quest to find some kind of protein that we can blend up and put through his little g-tube (a feeding tube on the outside of his tummy that allows us to put food straight into stomach). It is hard to find anything that doesn't contain soy! EVERYTHING uses soy as a filler! NOT Spam! SO, we will be stocking our shelves!
Nothing like a pureed canned, can shaped hot dog! YUMMY! :)
In fact, the Dietician, when I told her about this find, did some research and found it to be quite healthy! There are not a lot of extra fillers and preservatives! We also discovered Canned Corn Beef Hash! NOW THAT is a heart attack in a can...unless your Dawson, then it is the PERFECT answer to all of our worries! With Dawson, the more fat, protein and calories, in whatever their form, the better!
SO, when the can says........

Original post here.
In most parts of the civilized world, a criminal is supposed to get no special treatment just for being female. Not so in India.
The Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC) in India, a legacy of colonial times, defines the processes during criminal trials. One of the most important concepts in a criminal trial is that of "bail". After a case has been registered with the police, but before one's possible conviction, the accused can be arrested and subsequently released on "bail": free, but commanded to follow the jurisdiction of the court and to participate in the trial.
Women in India have a special, not-very-well-known provision in the CrPC. In section 437 of CrPC, which pertains to the criteria when a person can be granted bail, contains this White Knight exception:
Provided that the Court may direct that a person … be released on bail it such person is under the age of sixteen years or is a woman or is sick or infirm
For another example, let's study section 160 of CrPC about the police interrogation of witnesses. It is common knowledge that the police in India indulges in torture of undertrials. But instead of fixing the police to treat all under-trials in a humane manner, women have been given a special exception:
Provided that no male person under the age of fifteen years or woman shall be required to attend at any place other than the place in which such male person or woman resides.
So women are treated as juveniles or invalids, but we don't see any feminists protesting against this "inequality". The reason is simple: Feminism is not about equality. It is about female entitlement at the cost of society. A feminist never protests against an inequality when it is in favor of women. In fact, they actively campaign for such unequal treatments. In their twisted minds, the prevalence of the mythical "patriarchy" implies that a woman needs to be given special treatment, to the extent that even if she is accused of a crime, she should be dealt with more leniently than men.
In recent times, a woman accused of murder tried to avail of the earlier loophole in the case of Meenu Dewan vs State on 13 January, 2009 but the courts have wised up and have their own tricks to thwart the duplicity of unscrupulous women:
… merely because the petitioner is a woman does not entitle her for bail under proviso to Section 437 but the nature and gravity offense and heinousness of the offense also has to be considered
But one cannot disregard the White-Knight attitudes of the framers of our laws. It is high time people are treated equally, fairly and humanely before the law.
But one must remember: it will be naivete of the highest order to look toward feminists to support this goal of equality.

Like Grains of Sand
My partner and I often walk on the beach in the early evening because the light accentuates every detail in the sand and water. I took this photograph just before sunset a couple of years ago, and I'm posting it now by way of contrast to those that follow in my next entry. *1 Late in the day frothy wave crests have yellow-orange halos because the rays of photon particles splatter through the tiny bubbles and microscopic globes of splashing water. The sand particles are highlighted, each and every one. All the highlighted colors are tilted toward the warm side of the spectrum, and the shadows toward the cool. As I have often heard from others, "God is in the details."
This image hints at the importance of every single detail in the universe. However, the lines and indentations left by the wave's leave-taking also indicate that those details can be changed in an instant by normal physical properties. It is not God's intent to wipe away that perfect moment. It is just that the perfect moment is seized upon by one person, and perhaps appreciated by others. So too in our lives - whether good and perfect - would that such were possible - or bad and defective - God does not wipe any one of us away with intent . It is just that we have our moment, perfect or not, and then the universe changes.
For me that fact of life demonstrates how necessary it is to live and love, to make as perfect as is humanly possible every moment I exist because the waves of change will happen despite the fact of my existence and God's love.*2
*1 The next entry highlights photographs taken in the same location that demonstrate how our carelessness can destroy the perfect moment.
*2 I am not an evangelical Christian. I am just an ordinary Christian who believes in God's love and the fact of Jesus Christ's life as testimony to that love. I do not believe that God would consign any man, woman or child to burn in eternal hellfire just because he or she had not accepted Jesus Christ as his or her personal savior. If such were the case what would have happened to all those unborn single cell (persons?) evangelicals are so worried about (just "sayin").

Thanks for a beautiful expression of spirituality. I find it hard to relate to people who see God as "unchanging" because change is the essence of the universe as God created it.

What a thoughtful and beautiful post. Appreciating every moment is key isn't it, as well as realizing this too shall pass away. Meanwhile there is a part of us - I call Soul that remains aware of it all - the divine aspect that we truly are.

Blog Post 12: Good Design for All
Something that I believe represents "good design for all" is the Brita water pitcher. These pitchers purify tap water instantly through a small filter enclosing small carbon pellets, forcing the water into a reservoir at the top, so when it is poured out of the spout and into your glass, there is no mercury copper, or chlorine in your water. These pitchers are like having a water filtration plant in your refrigerator, and they are very inexpensive (about $30) and never need to be replaced, only new filters need to be bought every 2 months that cost about $5 each. The low cost of these pitchers and filters make them accessible to just about every household, college dorm room, or office, which is a key factor in the pitchers being a good design for
. One of the best reasons these pitchers are a good design is because it solves the problem of using plastic water bottles that end up in landfills, which promotes sustainability.
The pitchers are not only highly functional, economical, and eco-friendly, but they come in a range of sizes and design styles, to compliment any kitchen's style or color scheme. Aesthetics as well and function make the Brita pitchers objects of "good design".

I have 2008 2500HD Diesel, Love the truck, drive a lot of miles daily. What can I do to increase my overall milage. I average @ 16 mile per gallon every day driving. It does graet until the emmision starts burning off; the milage drops a ton. I running around $170.00 per week in fuel. I don't want to sell truck, but with fuel cost increasing I may be force to.
1 Answer
You can get a programmer, or get the comp "tuned" one of the trucks in our fleet (owner/operator) has done this and when he is in "econo" mood, he get 21MPG (this is a 4door 4x4 3500). and he has added a cold aid kit and a few other things. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/index.php? <---- this is a Duramax online forum, hope it helps. Enjoy the truck, I wish I had one in my driveway (even though diesel here is $1.30 a litre that is about $5 a gallon)

Nicaragua! This little country has been through so many natural and man-made disasters, yet there is still so much beauty in the landscape and in the hearts of the people. There is such a large majority of people living in poverty; yet they still want to share what little they have. It is an amazingly beautiful country with so much to offer and yet an absolutely heart-breaking history. After leaving Nicaragua, it took me weeks to emerge from my state of reflection. There is so much we don't know about Nicaragua and other Latin American countries that are so close to home.

The Commando Elite here was made using the regular series 2 Elite body from the Halo 3 line. I basically sculpted the helmet out of clay and painted it in a bunch of indigos and violets and black, plus a metallic wash. I havnt made the shoulders yet but for now, i think he looks pretty good with the combat harness shoulders and actually makes him look a bit more menacing. Hopefully I'll have another one with the Commando shoulders soon!
Almost forgot, the helmet is also removeable!

Just to underscore my continuing obsession with all things cthulhic I have found a wasp called Nanocthulhu lovecrafti on WaspWeb.
I love the way the description of this tiny wasp references Lovecraft and explains the connection - the clypeal fuscina (the three-pronged plate on the front of its head) apparently resembles the "pulpy, tentacled head" of Cthulhu. Up close it does look pretty freaking nightmarish.
WaspWeb also notes, rather drily, that the pronunciation of Cthulu is controversial. Mr Buffington must be something of a Lovecraft scholar given the sources he quotes or he just has really bad dreams.
I know of some links between the Cthulhu mythos and insects and this claims that Al Azif is the derived from the sound made by nocturnal insects. All of them? Hmm.
Thanks to the wonderful Curiosities of Biological Taxonomy there is another one. A spider called Pimoa cthulhu Hormiga. I've now seen pictures of it and, yes, it is likely to induce gibbering insanity.
According to that list Lovecraft is not well represented when it comes to naming critters or their constituent parts. Tolkien, Pratchett and Nabokov have him beat.

... or COZIES. Geez, I have been knitting tea cozies and ONLY tea cozies for two weeks straight! Please, please please, Universe, never send me an opportunity to knit tea cozies again.
Ok, its not that bad. I'm just bored with it. One tea cozy here and there is probably great because they are quick and you feel like you did something, etc etc. But it has just seemed like a neverending project! I am doing it for my Maid of Honor's shower which is on Sunday, and I am her Maid of Honor, and this is what MOHs do, right? But boy, I just can't wait... I have 4 1/2 tea cozies done, and I just have one more half to do. And its a quick one, and I have a movie to watch (and knit with) this afternoon, and its Knit Night tonight at Knit Pickings, and I have until Sunday and its only Friday. My normal Procrastination is DYING to kick in and say "hey... you only have 1/2 to do... and it won't take you that long... go ahead, knit something else. Like that SWEATER you're dying to finish!". But nope, Procrastination, I will not give in!
I am hoping that tomorrow afternoon I will able to post that I am done with the tea cozies and can get on with my normal knitting. I can't wait to take a picture of all five of them, just hanging out together. Then I can work on one of the 4 other time sensitive projects I need to do ASAP.
That sweater, my Rusted Root that I said would be done by the 4th? Scrach that...

A very "me" moment...
Do you ever have one of those days where you're super motivated to get everything done that you can possibly think of, and then some? I woke up Saturday morning in one of those moods. Actually I woke up Friday in one of those moods, got tons done, and worked from 2-10. I slept pretty late Saturday but when I was up, I was washing sheets, cleaning, etc. I couldn't cook or bake anything because we had literally NO FOOD in the house, but I put together my food shopping list for the week, and got ready to go. I was also going to get my oil changed, go buy a scale, go to the wine store for some tasting and buying, and then go to the supermarket. I got into my car and took a peek in my purse and saw that I had NO WALLET in there. I had left it at work the night before! I wasn't concerned with the safety of my wallet, I knew it would be ok, but I then became stranded with no food in my house. It was like a desert island. So I kept at my laundry, my knitting, watched almost all of season 6 of Sex and the City on demand... but I was not able to start dinner early. Not able to bake the carrot cake that I wanted to. Not able to get my oil changed, buy my scale, buy WINE. And, Erm was golfing for the day, so he couldn't even come to my rescue! I truly felt like a desperate housewife! Needless to say, he came home, we went food shopping, everything was fine. But... no homemade carrot cake :(
On another note, I have two squares of my sock yarn blanket done! What I'm doing is knitting a square every time I get done with one of the five similar things I have to have done by Sunday. I'm sure that didn't make sense, but I don't want to ruin the surprise. But, here are my two squares! Someday, these will actually be part of a blanket...

Father's Day, a nasty cold, and Game 6!
Hiya! I hope everyone had a great weekend like I did! Sunday I finally got to give my dad his hat that I've been working on for a couple of weeks, one of those projects that I couldn't talk about in case he reads my blog, which I know he doesn't. I can dream that everyone's reading my blog, right?
But before we went to my parents' house to give my dad his silly hat, we had lunch with DH to be's family to celebrate three birthdays. DFs neice is seriously one of the funniest kids I have ever met. I know everyone says that, but she kills me every time I see her. On Sunday we were coloring and drawing and I drew a mermaid tail and she decided to finish the drawing. After drawing the blob of the body she started drawing in the other... mermaid parts. When someone asked her what they were, she said "oh that's over her tummy... you know, her thingie things!". She constantly has the ability to bring us all to tears laughing and of course, has no idea why. So cute!
Anyway, he requested a hat longer than the last one I made him, and with earflaps to cover his ears. My parents have a long driveway that he snowblows in the winter and he never wears the right hats, mittens, scarves, etc. So I'm working on it.
Here is his hat
My dad is a very handsome man, I kept telling him to smile to take a normal picture and he refused to. I think he felt silly in the hat. Ha! I bet you didn't know you were going to be on the internet, Dad!

The only thing that put a damper on my weekend, and was the worst on Sunday, was this raging cold I've had since Wednesday. Of course, my late night on Saturday didn't make things better, but I digress. It was so bad that I had to record the Celtics Game 5 on Sunday night because I fell asleep after the first quarter! Although, I guess if there was a game to miss, it was that one.
Tonight is Game 6 and I have a plan of attack! First of all, I'm already feeling better, this cold is on its way OUT! I'm going to go home and make dinner for DH to be, head to the gym, which will energize me, come home and eat my dinner (enchiladas... mmm....) maybe bust out a square for the Sock Yarn Blankie, and hunker down to watch my favorite guys! And for anyone who doesn't know about the Sock Yarn Blankie, you either HAVE to check it out, or you shouldn't. Depends on your level of obsessiveness. Its an entire blankie, made out of mitered squares, that are made out of sock yarn. Made famous (and invented?) by Shelly Kang, The Heathen Housewife. I held off until last night and I couldn't take it any more, I started!

Birthday Surprise weekend was a hit!
So this past weekend it was my wonderful fiance's birthday. Last year I took him on a Birthday Surprise Day and I feel like I may have started a tradition. This year I got very excited about taking him to Concord & Lexington as he is VERY into American History, Revolutionary War, etc. I figured it would be a nice day for us, which it was. I also presented him with the half a sock I got done for him. I was really hoping to have the whole pair... but alas, I only had about a legwarmer's worth! They are longer now, but they look like this:
So as I'm getting excited to do the big reveal about where we're going, we're standing in the kitchen and he produces an envelope from his briefcase. This was not your average envelope, this envelope contained TWO TICKETS TO THE CELTICS GAME. This was GAME 2 OF THE FINALS! I almost peed my pants.
So then we got ready, had some breakfast, and were on our way. It was a nice day out, a little warm, but we spent a lot of time in air conditioned places so that was great. One place was The Cheese Shop in downtown Concord. For under $20, we got three delicious cheeses, a bunch of italian deli meat, a big bottle of Pelligrino and a baguette. Picnic lunch! Best cheese was a tossup between the aged cheddar and this 4 year old Gouda...
After that, more history, then onto Lexington where everything was CLOSED. Well, not everything. We actually got to enter each other's worlds for a short time, and I brought DF to his first LYS!! Wild and Wooly in Lexington. I had read mixed reviews online about this store and I have to say, the service was better than what I had expected! As usual, I had to buy SOMETHING... or two somethings. I left with some Araucania sock yarn and a VERY blue Malabrigo. Both for ME which I rarely buy yarn for any more. I want to make a hat with the Malabrigo, but I need the absolute perfect pattern. Any ideas? It looks like Grover.
I also hope you're admiring my pasty white legs. Get out your sunglasses and don't go blind.
After that, a trip to his favorite guitar store which was gorgeous, a nice dinner with friends at a brewery in Waltham. Sunday was family day at our house, quick nap and off to the CELTICS!!!! I could have gone overboard with the team spirit, but I think DF would have left me at the Garden. So I toned it down.
Needless to say, it was the perfect end to a wonderful weekend. Our seats were fantastic, as they always are when this guy gives them to us. The Garden was rocking, the celebs were out, it was totally worth the exhaustion I suffered the next day! Did I mention how good our seats were?

What color are you?
I was quite surprised when I saw what color I was... always thought I'd be a red!
Your dominant hues are green and blue. You're smart and you know it, and want to use your power to help people and relate to others. Even though you tend to battle with yourself, you solve other people's conflicts well.
Your saturation level is very high - you are all about getting things done. The world may think you work too hard but you have a lot to show for it, and it keeps you going. You shouldn't be afraid to lead people, because if you're doing it, it'll be done right.
Your outlook on life is very bright. You are sunny and optimistic about life and others find it very encouraging, but remember to tone it down if you sense irritation.

SUP Mississippi, 2011
I had heard about some crazy guy paddling the Mississippi on a stand-up paddleboard (SUP), but didn't find out until today on Facebook who he is, and that it was part of an organized effort. The reason for the SUP is it would qualify as a Guinness record for the longest SUP trip. The who in the equation is David Cornthwaite, of London, England. The most interesting part is that the Mississippi trip is the fourth trip of what he calls Expedition 1000. He is planning to do 25 trips of a minimum of 1,000 miles each, and doing each trip by a different form of non-motorized transportation. So far he has skateboarded across Australia for 3,638 miles, kayaked Australia's Murray River for 1,479 miles, rode a tandem bike from Vancouver to Las Vegas for 1,396 miles, and now should log about 2,400 miles on the Mississippi River by paddleboard. I'll attach a link to his blog in the Favorite Blogs section on the right margin. Check him out.

West Lancashire MP Rosie Cooper is encouraging local businesses to enter the Manufacturer of the Year Awards 2014, which celebrate excellence in the manufacturing industry.
Over 200 senior business leaders attended the Parliamentary launch for the 2014 awards, including representatives from Rolls Royce, GE Aviation, Mulberry, BAE Systems, and many more. The awards provide an opportunity for both celebration and recognition of innovation in industry, and are open to all businesses regardless of size.
This means that the smallest businesses have an equal chance of winning one of the prestigious prizes as some of the biggest manufacturing brands in the country. And entries for the coveted awards are now open. For details on how to enter please go to
Rosie Cooper MP said:
"In West Lancashire we have manufacturing companies that are at the forefront of their respective sectors. I've had the opportunity to visit companies such as Aqua, Trelleborg, UBH, Hotter Shoes, amongst many others here in West Lancashire and see firsthand the great products they are delivering for their customers across the UK and around the world.
"The Manufacturer of the Year Awards is a great opportunity for outstanding manufacturers across the country to receive recognition for their innovation and enterprise. Despite claims that the manufacturing industry is in decline, it contributes £140 billion a year to the economy and output is increasing. I would strongly encourage local businesses to put themselves forward for the 2014 Awards and showcase the talent we have here in West Lancashire.
"I would encourage West Lancashire businesses involved in the manufacturing sector to apply to these awards and highlight the great work happening in your business and in West Lancashire."

My coaches are sadistic and evil. Seriously. What were they thinking? The last two weeks of IM training has included 17 hours this week and 18.5 hours next week. Yep, I'm talking about the weeks of Christmas and New Years! Never mind that people travel. Forget about the fact that people have family and friends. Disregard the whole "holiday" thing. As I've said before, Ironman training is a train that will leave your ass behind if you don't keep up.
That's why a huge portion of my time in Ohio was spent on my feet, in the pool or on a stationery bike. Gone were the days of leisurely lunches and drinks with friends. We weren't in town long enough to really do much "hanging out." Those are some of the sacrifices that go along with this journey. Fortunately, Shawn was with me every step of the way.
Our friend Karl blessed us not only with a great 15 mile run on Sunday, but also two free passes to the brand new state-of-the-art Ohio State University Rec Center. This facility featured multiple pools, weights, hot tubs, cardio equipment and everything else you would ever need for a greatworkout. So, on Christmas Eve, we headed to campus for a 1.25 hour swim workout in one of the 6-pools followed by :45 minutes on a stationery bike. I wanted to ride longer, but we had to get to Christmas Eve mass!
While children all over the city of Columbus were playing "Guitar Hero" on their Wii's on Christmas morning, Shawn and I headed to our neighborhood park and knocked off 7.5 miles of running at an average pace of about 8:20. Man, it felt good to burn some calories before our annual Sergio Homeade Ravioli and Spaghetti Christmas dinner.
Our visit to Columbus was all too brief, but packed with so many memorable events. In between workouts, I ate more cookies and buckeyes than I care to admit. We visited Shawn's close to 90-year-old Grandma and her advice to us? "Never Grow Old." Don't worry Grandma Hilda. We won't.
Christmas Eve dinner was spent in the company of over 40 people including my brother's and their families, aunts, uncles and cousins. I literally felt the warmth of holiday love and tradition as we ate, exchanged gifts for the kids and watched the little ones play Christmas caroles on the piano and trombone (GO Caroline!) as all the adults sang along. Norman Rockwell would have a new painting if he were sitting in that room.
After our run on Christmas morning, we headed over to yet another Aunt's home and continued our homeade ravioli and spaghetti tradition that was started by Grandma and Grandpa so many years ago. Another packed house of 40-50 Italians gathered and shared stories, kisses, hugs and more food! On Christmas night, we came home and played Dominoes with Shawn, my Mom and my Brother Tommy (who thinks my blog is stupid) followed by the new DVD version of "The Price is Right!"
I wasn't ready to come home. I could get very used to sleeping in with no alarm clock to force me out of bed. I could get very used to Mommy making my breakfast every day. Alas, we left yesterday, but not before I got a 1 hour ride on my parent's old school Aerodyne Stationery Bike. It's not my Guru tri bike, but I worked up a sweat nonetheless. Besides, my heart and legs don't know the difference between Schwinn and Guru. Sweat is sweat...That's all I'm sayin'.
Our last meal before boarding the plane? A couple of Sliders at White Castle Hamburgers...a workout in and of itself. I'd like to formally apologize to those who were sitting in rows around us.
I haven't mentioned my wonderful Christmas gift because it warrants an entry unto itself. Hopefully tomorrow...

those internet people are really smart. I am working on uploading some pics for you peops (i know it's peeps, but I prefer my way, it's more authentic) and I went to photobucket to get them coded. I entered the website into the top and when the site popped up it was completely unrecognizable, but sure enough there were places to upload photos, make photo slideshows, etc. I looked and looked and looked and couldn't figure it out. Finally, I realized I'd entered www.photbucket.com---just one o in photo. But, sure enough there is a website for phot bucket. Who knew?
Actually that happened to me recently while trying to visit Emily www.sweethomeemily.blogspot.com (I could link her, but I'm really a techno idiot). I was in shock and awe when I didn't find her at Sweet Ho Emily. Fortunately, I am not that type of girl and quickly redirected myself.
I wonder if that's why I haven't made it big yet. Everyone has been visiting www.amananothingmore.blogspot.com and learning all about appliances and such.
