Coloradans think they are some ungodly force of nature in the athletic scene (I hear it constantly in the shop). Ever since I have moved here I have been told by everyone who races that I will be dropped, beaten and decimated because Colorado racing is that much harder. Now I hate to be a naysayer but I have raced a few CO races before in my day and while it sucks to race from 9000 to 12000 feet that is literally the only part that is harder in my opinion. The racers aren't faster, the elevation and terrain is just different. Stick a Colorado native on the Lawrence river trail in the middle of July and he won't know what to do having to stay in his big ring so long while his shorts turn into a humidified mess.
But I decided to look at the upside of the matter and registered for the category 4 race. Eff it. No one knows me here so I can't be called a sandbagger if I destroy and I can't be called worthless for my experience range if I suck. The truth of the matter is that I knew it would be a helluva lot easier to ride through the 4s than the 3s and I'm not getting a good starting position anyhow, noone knows me in the ACA and I'm not buying a license until next year. So I might as well have some fun before I get kicked out.
So here's to toeing the start line 1 more season, jumping some barriers, and hopefully being called a sandbagger. Ring an imaginary cowbell for this overexperienced cross junkie who is still hanging out at the back of the pack.

The way Iran treated the 15 British sailors/marines who were in disputed waters with a clear mission, and their happy release has made Blair, Bush and the rest of the Cons in the West pretty mad. So mad, in fact, that they're now trying to divert attentions to Iran's alleged role in Iraq.
But the fact remains, the way the repressive theocracy in Iran treated its captives, compared to how the 'civilized' world treats its Muslim suspects, e.g. Abu Ghuraib, Guantanmo Bay, your local police office or immigration bureau, has made it clear to many people how untruthful their leaders and how misguided their own perceptions about Iran and the Middle East might be:
Iran treated those trespassing naval officers humanely. They were returned happy and healthy — to an extremely embarrassed Tony Blair and his government full of pasty-faced criminal minds. The UK media yesterday were so desperate to twist the embarrassment of the officers' safe return into another headline about how violent Muslims are that the 4 'coalition' soldiers killed in Iraq yesterday were ridiculously linked to the peaceful release of these vacationers.
And then in a remarkably sadistic pirouette of spin, Blair attempted to portray the Iranians as the main culprits responsible for the deathpit that has become Iraq.
This show has only one remaining audience: the idiotic members of the citizenry of the US and UK where voting is no longer a democratic action, but a knee-jerk reaction to manufactured hatred and fear.

The hype said that Samantha Shannon had received a six figure advance for the first three books in a seven book series and had already sold the film rights to book one: "The Bone Season".
What the hype didn't prepare me for was a rich, complex book filled with original ideas, vivid characters, powerful emotions, gritty realism and page-turning action.
Shannon's alternative future Britain is fully thought through and skilfully evoked. She weaves her tale from a deep understanding of the politics of hatred and fear and the fundamental evil of slavery and brightens it with new ideas on the nature of magic.
What makes the book truly exceptional is the character of Paige Mahoney (how nice it was to hear this name pronounced the Irish way for once): brave, dangerous, more than a little broken but fundamentally good. She is easy to care about and root for. Her way of seeing the world is humane without being in the least bit soft. Her bravery comes from a refusal to submit to fear or to be treated as anything less than human. Even when everything has been taken from her, she holds on to the power that comes from knowing what she values and what she is prepared to do to protect it.
The relationship between Paige and Warden, her "keeper" is rich, complex and credible, exploring the boundaries or trust and otherness, suspicion and attraction, power and weakness.
Although it is book one in the Scion series,"The Bone Season" is a full novel and not just an instalment in a story.
This is one of the best speculative fiction books I've read in a long time. That it was début novel from a young author fills me with pleasure. I look forward to reading all of her books as they come out over the next several years.

My Celtic angel stitches out on sheer and ordinary fabric. The angels come in several sizes. Create a flat angel or an angel with a full skirt which will sit on the top of your tree. The separate skirt can be created in sections depending on your size of hoop. Give her a second set of wings or wings of a different shape. Embroider lots of upper sections for little angels to place all over your tree! Decorate your angel with Angelina, sequins, beads, metallic threads, crystals or lace. There is an option of adding your own fabric to the bodice as an applique. The skirt with the lace border requires an 8" wide hoop so I suggest adding your own lace to the edge of the smaller design, if you do not have this width of hoop. There is an accompanying PDF tutorial with full instructions and lots of ideas and details on how to create your own individual angel! This set has been updated so there are now 12 more designs so everybody can create their own unique angel. For dimensions of each design click on the "In detail" tab.
N.B. These are not free standing lace designs and require sheer fabric to support them.

SHERMAN H. SKOLNICK AND PETER S. SARELAS, PLAINTIFFS-APPELLANTS,v.OSCAR M. NUDELMAN, DEFENDANT-APPELLEE.
Appeal from Circuit Court of Cook County; the Hon. SAMUEL B.
EPSTEIN, Judge, presiding. Orders and judgment affirmed.
This appeal is taken from the dismissal, on motion of defendant, of plaintiffs' third amended complaint.
Prior to October 1962, plaintiff Sherman Skolnick was represented by plaintiff attorney Peter Sarelas in three lawsuits, one in the Superior Court of Cook County and two in the United States District Court; it appears that one of the federal cases was dismissed by the court. On October 31, 1962, Skolnick wrote a letter addressed to defendant attorney "Oscar M. Nudelman, Decalogue Society, Chicago, Ill." The letter represented that Skolnick was referred to Nudelman by a third party, and requested Nudelman to read and consider four documents enclosed therewith consisting of Skolnick's complaint in a federal court action, the transcript of proceedings in that action, several pages from the defendant's "Memorandum in Reply to Plaintiff's Brief," and a letter from the Chairman of the United States House of Representatives Judiciary Committee concerning the federal court action. It further appears that Nudelman turned over the letter and the documents to attorney Harry G. Fins for the latter's consideration, and that both Nudelman and Fins had a conversation concerning the matter a few days later.
Plaintiffs filed their original complaint in this cause on December 13, 1963, naming both Nudelman and Fins as parties defendant. A motion filed by Fins for summary judgment as to the action against him was granted on June 16, 1964, and the judgment thereon was affirmed on appeal. See Skolnick v. Nudelman, 71 Ill. App.2d 424, 218 N.E.2d 775.
Plaintiffs subsequently filed an amended complaint against Nudelman, to which was filed a motion to strike and dismiss. The amended complaint was stricken in January 1965, and plaintiffs were given leave to file a second amended complaint which they filed later that month. Nudelman again filed a motion to strike the second amended complaint, among other relief requested, to which plaintiffs filed objections. An affidavit in support of his motion was also filed by Nudelman. A motion to strike the affidavit was filed by both plaintiffs, and Skolnick thereafter alone filed a counteraffidavit. Disposition of the matters filed in connection with the second amended complaint was assigned to Judge Samuel Epstein for hearing on June 15, 1965.
After several continuances were allowed with respect to the hearing, the cause was finally set for March 25, 1966. On March 21, 1966, plaintiffs filed a motion to disqualify Judge Epstein for the reason that he was financially interested in the outcome of the case. They alleged that the judge was a member of the Decalogue Society of Lawyers; that Nudelman "by and through his pleadings in the instant case, has involved and implicated the Decalogue Society" and "seeks to justify his intentional torts against these plaintiffs under the guise and mask of being a functionary of said Decalogue Society . . ."; that due to certain allegations made by Nudelman, the Decalogue Society "may become a necessary party-defendant in this case . . ."; that a jury decision favorable to the plaintiffs "may then become assessable against the said Judge . . . as a member of said Society . . ."; and that Judge Epstein "therefore has a pecuniary interest in this matter which disqualifies him from adjudicating the instant case."
Hearing on the motion to disqualify was had on March 23rd; the motion was denied. Also denied at the same hearing was a petition for change of venue presented by plaintiffs, without notice to the defendant, after the motion to disqualify was denied. The order of March 23rd recited:
"This cause coming on to be heard on plaintiff's motion for this Court to disqualify himself for reasons set out in said motion, and the Court having read said motion and heard arguments of counsel,
"IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that said motion be and the same is hereby denied.
"Upon denial of said motion, plaintiffs, without notice to opposing counsel, presented a petition for change of venue from this Court and from twenty-four other Judges thereof. Upon consideration of said motion, same having been presented without prior notice to opposing counsel, and being untimely, the said motion for change of venue is hereby denied."
Hearing on the defendant's motion to strike the second amended complaint was had on March 25th; the second amended complaint was stricken and dismissed and plaintiffs were given leave to file a third amended complaint.
Plaintiffs' third amended complaint, consisting of three counts, was filed on May 4, 1966. Count I alleged interference by Nudelman, and by Nudelman in combination with Harry G. Fins, with plaintiffs' attorney-client relationship; Count II alleged defamation of Sarelas' professional and personal character, and of Skolnick's character; and Count III alleged interference with plaintiffs' civil rights. Nudelman again filed a motion to strike the third amended complaint and the hearing was assigned to Judge Epstein. It does not appear that plaintiffs in any way objected to the assignment of Judge Epstein for disposition of the motion to strike the third amended complaint. After a hearing was had on November 14, 1966, the court denied plaintiffs' motion to strike defendant's motion to strike the complaint and overruled their objections filed thereto, allowed defendant's motion to strike the third amended complaint and dismissed the complaint on grounds of scurrility.
On December 13, 1966, both plaintiffs filed a motion for rehearing and reconsideration of the November 14th order dismissing the third amended complaint. Hearing thereon was set for January 17, 1967, at which hearing Skolnick failed to appear, and the December 13th motion was denied. A subsequent motion filed by Skolnick to vacate the January 17th order was also denied. This appeal followed.
Count I of the third amended complaint alleged that Nudelman interfered with the attorney-client relationship which existed between the plaintiffs prior thereto and further alleged a conspiracy between Nudelman and Fins to interfere with the relationship. Count I specifically alleged that "as a consequence of the malconduct and malevolent acts and doings of defendant Oscar M. Nudelman," Skolnick severed his contractual relationship with Sarelas in the case in the Superior Court of Cook County in April 1963, and in the two federal cases in July 1963, and that "because of the malconduct and malevolent acts and doings of . . . Nudelman," Skolnick was forced to represent himself after said dates as "a party-litigant pro se." Count I further alleged that the letter of October 31, 1962, from Skolnick to Nudelman, referred to above, was employed by Nudelman to "set in motion, or to trigger off, a natural conspiracy between the defendant Oscar M. Nudelman and Harry G. Fins, both of whom purport to be functionaries of the Decalogue Society of Lawyers"; that Nudelman in combination with Fins, "contrived and conspired to intermeddle and interfere" in the aforesaid litigation and to "use said letter as a part of a scheme to proceed, under the sham and pretense of being a functionary of some kind of the Decalogue Society of Lawyers, to commit champerty and (sic) maintenance and barratry"; and that in furtherance of said scheme "Nudelman, in combination with Harry G. Fins, used the malevolent and diabolical instruments of rumor-spreading and slander-mongering to undermine" Sarelas as Skolnick's attorney in the aforementioned litigation and the "instruments of threats, coercion, and terror-tactics directed in particular against . . . Skolnick, a paraplegic invalid and shut-in."
Count I also alleged that "in furtherance of said conspiracy and scheme, to terrorize and coerce . . . Skolnick to cause him to sever the contractual relationship with . . . Sarelas, and for the purpose of compelling . . . Skolnick to take on the services of . . . Nudelman and of . . . Fins, a self-declared expert on appeal work," Nudelman stated to Skolnick over the telephone, on the dates of December 12 and 13, 1962, and January 8, 1963, that Sarelas was a "regular nut," a "screwball," a "mishuginer," and a "one-man-office." It was alleged that Nudelman also stated to Skolnick that Sarelas could do no good for him, that "he has no backing. He's poorly financed and you're poorly financed"; that "you need somebody to help you"; and that "you've got good cases . . . Fins told me your lawyer Sarelas is simply not equipped to handle cases like yours" and "if you are going to fight bailiffs, you're not going to get anything. Fins could handle everything." It was further alleged that Nudelman stated during those telephone conversations that he helped to organize the Decalogue Society; that the Decalogue Society "is not what it used to be"; that "he knew the Decalogue has become a front for pounding heads together in order to make deals in litigation"; and that the "judges who belong to the Decalogue are not out to stir up trouble, they want to cover it up."
Count I also alleged that on July 10, 1963, Nudelman, "by and through Harry G. Fins, purposely and intentionally approached . . . Sarelas, and announced that he was making it his usual self-declared business to intermeddle and interfere, as a stranger," in Sarelas' lawsuits, including those wherein he was representing Skolnick, and that Nudelman and Fins were "interfering to help the opponents in said cases" against plaintiffs. Count I finally alleged that on April 24, 1964, Nudelman, through Fins, stated to Sarelas that he knew certain other litigant-opponents of Skolnick intended to appeal certain decisions; that this was intended by Nudelman to mean that he was "actively in contact with and assisting" Skolnick's said opponents, inasmuch as such information had not been published; and that all such "malconduct was to perpetuate and continue their intermeddling, interference, champerty and (sic) maintenance, and barratry." The count then restated that Nudelman's purpose in all the activities as alleged was to deprive Skolnick of the attorney of his own choosing by means of "rumor-spreading, slander-mongering, and other malevolent instruments directed against" Sarelas; that defendant owed a duty to plaintiffs "not to intentionally and maliciously interfere" with the contractual relationship of the plaintiffs and not to "engage in threats, ...

Conceived as the home for a young/trendy/elegant couple, this house is the perfect reflection of the client's brief.The main areas of the house are raised and located on the first floor in order to take advantage of the beautiful views towards the ocean, leaving the complementary areas on the ground floor, spinning around a central courtyard that not only provides light and ventilation but also a beautiful view from every room on that level.
A very elegant and modern palette of polished concrete floors, textured concrete, stainless steel, with touches of natural grey stone and dark glass have conform the canvas for a unique lifestyle. The lighting design accents the spirit of the house on every room and determines a specific mood for each occasion by washing the different surfaces and creating a very rich fest of textures and shades.
Carla & Stefan Antoni have created a dreamy sky-high home that captures the feel of the sea below by using levels to spectacular effect.Their growing family is what forced the couple to demolish their bachelor pad and build a larger home. The result incorporates Stefan's dual-level penthouse, including two en-suite bedrooms, a living area and a kitchen on the first level, a studio, third bedroom and garage on the lower level, and an apartment underneath. On the roof, is a swimming pool and terrace, as well as the magnificent SKY BAR containing a cocktail bar and entertainment area.
Stefan's bold control of levels and layering has resulted in a visually sculptural interior. They wanted the feel of the apartment to be a contrast between laid-back comfort and slick sophistication. Crème-de-la-crème marble slabs were used for the floors and the woods were lime-washed to give them a 'beachy' feel. Accent colours were kept to greys and aquamarines.
Adam Court of OKHA Interiors created a range of furniture using the Antoni home as a canvas. "We wanted to create a relaxed but sophisticated look; one that was not only about individual pieces but about creating a totally new experience.
The result is a balance between the functional and the eye-catching, from white-leather sofas to ethnic pieces found on exotic travels. David Reade glass pieces sit alongside stacked cubic frames, together with cashmere throws and deep pile rugs.
"We wanted to break free from the mould, create a piece of poetry that plays on light, space and geometry, and balances the primal quality of raw surfaces with modern elements," Stefan concludes.

In finding our partner in life we don't get the luxury of having guides. There's no map to tell you the coordinates, there's no customized watch that would tell you the date and time, there's no compass or GPS - it's like walking blind in a battlefield - okay, battlefield is way exaggerated.
Despite all these, there are those who still managed to find their other half. And there's no better way to validate such "blessing" than to seal it through the sacrament of marriage.
I have witnessed quite a few weddings myself and a dear friend's wedding is something I would not ditch.
BUT... this friend is out of the ordinary I must say. She and her partner chose a venue that is approximately 4 hours away from the city - Davao to Bukidnon. And note that both of them are not from that place - they just agreed to have the wedding there for their personal reasons. So the catch here is only those who are willing to endure the long travel and spend time & money will be able to witness their union.
I was half-hearted in the beginning. But with a few more push from the rest of the gang we were able to pull out a grand plan - TO THE WEDDING WE SHALL GO!!!
It was a beautiful wedding! Not grand but nevertheless celebrated with the important people in the lives of the couple. The scenic venue is a plus as well. One thing to keep in mind is when the years pass, what you will remember is not the location or how grand is the wedding - but the people you shared it with, the laughs, the experience from the preparation to the big day, and the exchanged vows between the couple.
This is one for the books. It was indeed a fun and touching experience. Cheers to the first wedding in 2015 that I attended! Cheers to Mr. and Mrs. M!!!

Earlier than I proceed with the attractive older girls sequence, let me simply say that there's additionally a horny older men sequence. There may be one custom that may be very attention-grabbing to us. So after a Mongolian groom and his occasion arrive on the bride's house to escort her, they're treated like VIPs pretty much and everyone eats, sings and dances together and rejoice.
Okay now again to the marriage itself..Three days or every week before the precise marriage ceremony the bride can be taken to female beauticians or was visited by them at dwelling for the ritual of removing physique hair. The chaperon could also be her sister, cousin, mother, finest good friend, or different female or a brother, father, or uncle.
Whenever you arrive in Dubai you might be almost certainly alone, and in search of some companionship. Any self-respecting Filipina female worthy of relationship, engaging, and marrying would by no means do such a thing for anyone except it's her Fiancée who has already met her and hung out along with her.
In case you go to posh night time golf equipment you will discover many women from Europe website over there as mainly ladies from Europe and US in Dubai have got good jobs. That is followed by the Swagatam ceremony, wherein your female family members allow you to costume in your marriage ceremony sari.
Have someone make up a Photoshop'd family photo or even higher - a marriage photo, of you in a nice suit with somebody (ideally a feminine) standing beside you in a wedding dress (who has long black hair or is wearing a black hair wig) then darken the arms to a Philippine brown, erase the face, and put a white blank there with a question mark the place the face needs to be. Put that as a everlasting header on the high of the Fb page.
There may be one custom that could be very interesting to us. So after a Mongolian groom and his party arrive on the bride's home to escort her, they're handled like VIPs pretty much and everyone eats, sings and dances collectively and have a good time.
The bride, accompanied by her female kin, then makes the rounds of her visitors, carrying a basket lined in crimson. In case you are from outdoors of Dubai you could not know the place too effectively and subsequently have a drawback you are feeling with getting a girl when you are there.
While you arrive in Dubai you're more than likely alone, and searching for some companionship. here Any self-respecting Filipina female worthy of courting, participating, and marrying would never do such a factor for anyone except it is her Fiancée who has already met her and spent time together with her.

A Bit of a Makeover...
That early war-band had a far more relaxed attitude to mould lines, model poses and highlights than the Chapter they were to become. As I'm also one of those bastards who uses 'Counts-As' a lot, my Marines have gone through a lot of unit configurations...Some more use than others...
So I've decided its time to update the ten Tactical Squads that make up part of my 2nd Company in both appearance and usefulness.
As my Space Wolves generally have a 5 Man Squad that sometimes also have a Meltagun,
Troops: Grey Hunters Pack (6#, 155 pts)
5 Grey Hunters Pack @ 155 pts (Meltagun; Razorback)
1 Razorback (Lascannon and TL Plasmagun)
and my Space Marines are usually either,
Troops: Tactical Squad (6#, 165 pts)
4 Tactical Squad @ 165 pts (Razorback)
1 Sergeant (Bolt Pistol; Bolter)
1 Razorback (Searchlight; Smoke Launchers; Lascannon and TL Plasmagun)
Troops: Tactical Squad (11#, 220 pts)
9 Tactical Squad @ 220 pts (Meltagun; Missile Launcher; Rhino)
1 Sergeant (Bolt Pistol; Combi-Meltagun x1)
1 Rhino (Searchlight; Smoke Launchers; Storm Bolter)
Troops: Tactical Squad (11#, 205 pts)
9 Tactical Squad @ 205 pts (Flamer; Multi-Melta; Rhino)
1 Sergeant (Bolt Pistol; Bolter)
1 Rhino (Searchlight; Smoke Launchers; Storm Bolter)
I needed to find a way to maintain useful squad types without having a lot of superfluous models. In the end I decided to reconfigure four of the units to ten men units with Meltagun and Missile Launcher and three to Flamer and Missile Launcher. This war-gear load-out when combined with my already made Wolf Guard with Combi-Meltaguns would enable me to create any of the above combinations. As I have been gradually making my Rhinos modular this also meant that I only had to paint one Rhino and an alternate Razorback turret per Squad.
They'd all need tidying up though...
Luckily I already had made an alternative Sergeant/Champion with basic armament from when I used a Marine unit configuration that later became known by the Internet as 'Melta bunkers'. A Missile Launcher Marine from an unpainted Devastator squad has also been transferred to '1st' Squad together with a weapon-less Marine that I found in a tub with nineteen other weapon-less Marines.....No I've no idea why either and I actually own them.....With the addition of a shiny metal Meltagun he finished off the squad (from a configuration point of view at least) nicely.
The 3 original squad members that they replaced have been put to one side till I can work out a use for them, lol.
Now it was time to tidy them up a little. Due to the amount of models I need to sort out I decided to keep the tidying up to a minimum 'tabletop' standard. They didn't need to win any awards, just not look like a blind, thumb-less, four year old had painted them.
Firstly I removed Mould lines from the more obvious locations like the top of the heads and outer sides of legs, etc.
Then I re-undercoated them and touched up the 'bare' spots with my usual mix of metallic blue.
Then I touched up a few more bare spots in the models due to general wear and tear and changed the cloak to match the newer greyer look of my Wolf Guard. I also changed the weapons from a light dry-brush of Boltgun metal to a more 'painted' look.
And also gave the new guys appropriate '2nd' Company shoulder-pad rim colouring.
My earlier models had always had a plain look to the guns so I decided to paint the outer casing of the guns black to at least give the appearance of having put some effort into the project ;-)
I also took the 'skull' part of the Chapter logo and made a fairly average attempt at some free-hand.
Previously I simply used the Chaos Runes for numbers as squad markings as they nicely represented a fall to Chaos and were also pretty easy to paint. As my Chapters history was subtly retconned to make them a Chapter that used Chaos artefacts but kept quiet about it to everyone else ;-) I decided to make the runes a bit less obvious. Instead I used a circle in the 2nd Companies colours and put the rune for 'one' in the middle as a squad marking.
I then based them grey with a couple of layers of highlights and painted the purity seals with a simple red seal and writing on black colour scheme that was simple but still looked fairly striking. I touched up the Rhino a little and added the skull to it at the same time. At some point during the process I've added a 'Badab Black' wash to all the Boltgun Metal but can't remember exactly when...
I then did a freehand white arrow with the centre in the Company colours on a removal hatch for when the vehicle is in 'Rhino' mode. I also painted a detachable 'driver/gunner' for the vehicle and added a squad marking to the front.
And then painted a Las/Plas turret for when they're in 'Razorback' mode as well as a mounting for it and a hatch to replace the 'driver/gunner'.
Looking at the pictures now I can see a lot of little imperfections that will probably bother me later but that I can live with for now.
One down, six to go.....
Thoughts and comments are (as usual) most welcome.
2 comments:
They look nice and as a freehand skull that has come out very well. I had been thinking of getting some of the metal Meltaguns as I need more for my marines. Was it much hassle to line them up?ReplyDelete
My tactical squad weapons are the other way around to yours.
1) Melta & Multi-melta with Combi-Flamer
2) Flamer & Missile Launcher
@ Lyracian - The metal Meltaguns come with the hand attached. If you cut off the hand and the small 'stock' part at the back then they're exactly the same size as the plastic ones,but with the stock still attached it's a bit of a tight fit in the crook of the arm.ReplyDelete
The easy option is probably to cut the plastic hand off the model and just pin the metal Meltagun onto the arm 'as-is'.

This is one of the last blog posts in 2016. As I sit and reflect on this year I'm overcome with gratitude for all of you who
have joined our community and all of you who will join very soon!
The fact that a lot of you have trusted us to help you improve your fitness and well-being is just so cool and we don't take it lightly.
In the spirit of reflection and self improvement, I want to share with you my 2016 "How Am I Doing" exercise that I hope you will
use :).
This takes about 20 minutes of concentrated thought and is packed with transformative power. You are going to gain a 20,000
foot view of your life so you have complete clarity about where you are and were you are going. If you want to add on to this then
be my guest!
I adapted it from two of my favorite authors and speakers: John C. Maxwell and Tony Robbins (ever heard of them?;). Here are
the 10 questions…
1. If you had to describe 2016 in 3 words without thinking, what would they be?
2. What area of your life did you improve the most?
3. What area of your life needs the most improvement right now?
4. Who was the number one person you could rely on?
5. How would you rate the quality of your relationships on a scale of 1-10?
6. What or who are you most thankful for?
7. What was the single most important moment in 2016?
8. What one habit would change and why?
9. Are you happy with your career/work life and where it is headed? Elaborate on why or why not.
10. What new skills did you learn in 2016?
Have a little fun with this :). I promise it will be seriously productive and it's likely that you will feel a sense of relief and breathe a
huge deep breath out when you're done! That breath represents things starting to make more sense.

Here's a synopsis of book 1, The Bone Season, just in case you haven't heard of it before!
The year is 2059. Nineteen-year-old Paige Mahoney is working in the criminal underworld of Scion London, based at Seven Dials, employed by a man named Jaxon Hall. Her job: to scout for information by breaking into people's minds. For Paige is a dreamwalker, a clairvoyant and, in the world of Scion, she commits treason simply by breathing.
It is raining the day her life changes for ever. Attacked, drugged and kidnapped, Paige is transported to Oxford – a city kept secret for two hundred years, controlled by a powerful, otherworldly race. Paige is assigned to Warden, a Rephaite with mysterious motives. He is her master. Her trainer. Her natural enemy.

Free Fallin
And in the rest of my life, I have no direction....I feel like I'm in a free fall. Please don't start singing Tom Petty to me. I love the song, but all I can think of is Tom Cruise from Jerry Maguire.
I am also office space homeless. But at least I have a stapler in my displacement and they're still paying me. It may be another week or longer; they said it wouldn't take more than 7 days.
People are dropping like flies with all sorts of ailments at work. Some are definitely sick because of the dust and dirt and the new carpet of the environment. I'm trying to get my rest in advance, but somehow I feel fatalistic: it is just a matter of time.
A beautiful beautiful Saturday night MSG Springsteen ticket has found its way into my possession. I will be at Clarence's side stage. I will watch them play an incredible album from the late 70s. I will get to hear Incident On 57th Street and Sandy and NYC Serenade, long jamming songs that highlight the band in amazing ways, then intertwines with Springsteen's lyrics like winding ivy up along a trestle.
No Fly Zone sent me a text message, "Haven't heard from you. Let me know when you want to get together." I counted...this is the 10th week since that dreadfully comedic 1st date. I haven't ever communicated with him from that day onward. Um dude....desperate much? Oh yes wait, you've never left the state of New Jersey, so I guess the answer is yes.
FutureSex sent me an email, asking me to talk sexy to him. Eh. I'm too tired. If it feels forced, then it isn't right. In comparison, talking to my dear Molto Bello Italia is so delightfully easy and comfortable, like we'd been friends for years. FutureSex makes no effort to get together with me this weekend, even though I'm already booked for Bruce, he doesn't know that. I inquired what he was doing with his weekend and got no response. Welllllll, contact me when you're 1. less busy and 2. looking for more than just some sexy words in an email. Filed under: Chemistry ignition stalled.
Sweden had a dream about me. I was 175 lbs and trying on red and black dresses for a wedding, and she recalls saying "The red one, or I'll come down and smack you." Yes, that sounds about right.
Me, 175 lbs. Hahahaa. I don't know how it is going to happen.
Very warm thanks to Dating 2.0 for introducing this clueless one to the networking possibilities that is MeetUp!
And yes, I do love my new crackleberrypop Bold. I love it so much that I don't want to touch the track ball. I might have issues.

I gave up my crackberry to save money and prove to myself I was serious about buying a house. :( I miss it. And now I might not even be getting the house. Good thing I still have the DVR or I'd just give up and go live in a cave.

Sorry about the Yankees winning...I watched the first game (that Philly won) while I was in Baltimore, so I was disappointed that they didn't go on to win.
Glad you a liking your new crackberry...I can't even remember life before I got mine.
And finally...dump Future Sex...I don't like him. He can't make the effort to see you, yet he wants you to talk sexy to him? Ick.

No Fly Zone needs to fly away. What a nerd. And I'm sorry to say this but Future Sex will probably always remain just that. You are WAY too good to wait around for ANY man. I mean it. He needs to kiss off. If he can't make time for you now, will he ever?
Too harsh? Sorry, you know you can always count on me for an honest opinion (However, that in and off itself may be yet another reason why I'M still single, hehe). I just happen to think that you are amazing and can do better. XOXO

Chapters 1-4 have been sent out for review and chapter 5 is underway.
I have more to do on chapter 5 than I realised. I left it in a draft format with a rough idea of what the chapter's about and some introductory text. I've pulled it to the halfway point and have had an uptight historian collapse to the floor because of a muscle relaxant after being told she has a daughter.
I'd forgotten how much fun writing can be if I let it.
Too often I read blogs about the hard work that goes into writing. Yet what they're really talking about is the hard work that goes into getting published. Writing itself, like any other job, is only a chore if you don't like doing it.
Let's face it, who would seriously choose to be a writer unless they enjoy it. The pay's lousy even if you get paid at all. As for the hours....
I'm writing because I enjoy it. I write in a style I like and the stories I like. I will hone and craft them until they are publishable and will accept all critiques that help, but this isn't hard work. It's enjoyable work that I want to succeed at...even if it kills me.
I've also started writing down the comedy routines that have been flashing around in my head for the last few years. No doubt, some will turn out to be awful, but there are some gems in there. Enough to build a 20 minute routine? Probably not, but I have at least taken a step towards another goal.

Hard Work?

so true! and, can you imagine how much we'd get paid if we were paid by the hour? I think I get paid about 27 cents an hour (rough guess but close to the truth) for my writing.
still, it is a joy for me.
and...regarding your comment on my post -- when my kids ask about dinner when I'm trying to write I tell them we're having "fix-your-owni" (sounds like macaroni). It's my favorite meal!

Writing always comes straight from the heart. You can't say that about too many other jobs, right?

We have the following, in birth order from OLDest to youngest..
Miss Prudence slowly in her older years turning a bit vixen
Miss Numb, set me on fire, take everything from me and I won't complain (this one is really a gem)

I am getting pretty stoked about April 23rd 2013, because this year I get to participate in World Book Night! This is the second time that we here in the US get to join our brethren across the pond to giveaway books and pass along our love of reading one paperback at a time. According to their website, last year over a half a million books were distributed in over 5,800 hundred places to light or non-readers. That's a lot of pulp, huh? There are 21 titles and I will be passing out my first choice, "Girl with a Pearl Earring" by Tracy Chevalier.
Since I'm new to this I'm still not a 100% sure where I'm distributing my 20 copies. I don't want to give them all to one organization, and I don't know how confident I would be standing in a shopping mall, or street corner accosting people with a book, but I have a few ideas swirling around in my noggin and maybe some of my readers could give me a suggestion or two?
I have been thinking about a woman's shelter near my town, maybe a hospital or a retirement home. But I would like to get this book into a few younger hands as well, so maybe I do go to a shopping area or a coffee shop? I believe I still have some pondering to do!
I'm excited for the experience and I can't wait to tell you all about it!

I have been on 100mcg of levothyroxine but have now had three episodes of feeling faint, rapid heart, nausea, incredibly dry mouth, black spots before eyes while just strolling and hardly doing anything. I had to have a medic as I nearly passed out but my blood pressure was sky high at 190/95 it then changed down to 167/87 and my heart beat came down from 140 to 87. I had an ECG which he said was fine and blood tests fine. My doctor got in touch with cardiology after telling them i have episodes of fast heart rate ( I woke up one morning as my heart was 144 and I wasn't having a bad dream yet it stayed like that for about two hours!) who suggested I take a betablocker bisoprolol 2.5mg but I am really worried about taking the betablockers as it's more medication so wondered if anyone else had had symptoms like this? It was so so scary at the time and I felt I was going to die, horrible feeling when you're in a public place feeling this ill, I have a blood pressure monitor at home now and it swings from 177/88 70 146/79 and I still feel woozy at times.
The last Blue Horizon blood test I had was in July 2015 which was
Free T4 15.55 (12-22)
Free T3 4.47 (3.1-6.8)
T4 Total 88.9 (64.5-142)
The doctor tested my TSH only (april 2016) and said it was normal (about 1.7 something but I forget cos he told me in the surgery quickly)
The doctor doesn't seem concerned about my blood pressure as it was 135/80 when he tested it.
I was wondering if maybe I should be trying T3 aswell as T4 but I darent go back to the doctor to ask as he told me to take the betablockers for a month to see how i feel and I haven't taken any yet!

While schools at all levels have emphasized science, technology, engineer and mathematics (STEM) in recent years, a new $2.6 million grant being shared by UC San Diego and the San Diego Community College District is intended to spark interesting in the dwindling humanities field.
Constance Carroll, chancellor of the San Diego Community College District, said the grant is expected to reverse a trend that emphasized STEM over humanities, which had some unintended consequences.
"Community college enrollments have remained steady, but people have become too workforce-oriented at the exclusion of everything else," she said.
Carroll noted that China is re-thinking its past emphasis on STEM courses after finding that students who didn't study the humanities were less imaginative and had poor communication and critical thinking skills. Those skills are needed in many different fields and can be developed through the humanities, she said.
(Discover 3 ways technology could help create a critical bridge between stem and the humanities: click here.)
"This is an old lesson that America needs to re-learn, and we're happy to participate in that," she said.

On our way into Akron, we passed several little towns. I was finally able to find some gas that was more reasonably priced, still wishing I had gassed up in Lodi! But waiting longer saved me a lot! This little township was on a really nice looking little lake. I got the dogs out to explore a bit while we waited on Jeff. They didn't handle it well. After trying to find things to eat in the grass, they ended up, one in my lap, and the other sitting right next to me, on one of those benches overlooking the lake. They never went close to the water. I think the sound of the water lapping on the shore scared them. They need to get out more! This has done them a lot of good in that regard, but they still have room for improvement! So, I'm really not sure of the township name, but the lake was called Springfield Lake, and it might be in a town called Springfield, or Lakemore.
There was an awesome little memorial park there, with tons of flowers, also. And the little church was across the street from the park and firestation.
Another town was Deerfield. Of course, they had a war memorial. I think it might be required of all little towns! (Not to make fun, I think it is awesome that they make this a priority. We need to honor our war and service veterans more than we do!)
Another great little town was Atwater. It seemed a bit off the beaten path, but we went through anyway. That is where I got gas for much less, although not as low as Lodi. The thing I really loved about this town was this church. Such a beautiful old building!
Since we are in an area that is much more population dense, we are seeing a lot of old houses that are really cool. I just cannot imagine the time, effort and money that it takes to update and restore one of these homes!
As the homes get more densely packed together, I expect we will see a lot more really cute, eccentric things along the road. Here are a few from today.
|Excellent use of an old pallet, don't you think?
|It's an alien frog!
|I guess this is like a visible time capsule history
of this farmstead.
|I would never have thought to make a planter like this!
Jeff continues to find interesting things on the shoulders of the roads. Some can be so comical, others just odd....
|NO!!! Not Spidey!
|Jeff didn't even open the fortune cookie. I would have been terribly curious!
|Some poor baby lost their blankie!
As we came into Akron, I really expected more. I guess since we stayed on highway 224 right through the south of it, we probably missed a lot of stuff. I found these bicycle friendly signs interesting. They had no bike lanes or even very good shoulders. So why go to the trouble to measure and sign?
The east/northeast really likes their old cars! I imagine it is the same way at home, but I never really noticed. I did work with a guy who restored old cars. Come to think of it, I have worked with a couple over the years.
|This poor thing is schizophrenic! I'm a car, no I'm a motorcycle! Cute and ingenious, though.
The landscape here is much more tailored, so there are not nearly as many wild flowers along the highway. Lots of mowing going on! But it is so moist here, stuff grows really well.
|This one was planted in a park. But so pretty!
I had my sights on a campground just the other side of Berlin Lake, in Berlin Center. When I arrived to check it out, while Jeff was still running, the lady there said not only could we not dump, but we could not stay there! I found these folks on the internet, advertising they were a campground, AND they listed over night rates as well as their seasonal rates! Thankfully, there was an Army Corp campground just south of the highway. Mill Creek Campground at Berlin Lake. It was great! We got their last electric hook up spot, and only paid $20! Considering it is a holiday weekend, and they were packed, I was surprised to actually find something! The campsites were not as close together as we have seen in many campgrounds. It was spacious and well run!
We met these folks, who were on their way home from vacation, on the bridge over Berlin Lake. They were truly excited over what we are doing! I am just excited we are almost there!
After finding a Mailbox of the Day like this right off the bat, why keep looking?

I used to be one of many ambitious youngsters who wanted to change the world from early age. Having a natural sensibility to problems humanity faces — poverty, war and social injustice, I decided to pursue a career that allowed me to make a real difference. After years studying international development and human rights, I was convinced that a position within the government or at the United Nations would be the right and only fit for me to promote positive impact in society.
I was not alone: every year, thousands of students go through a similar journey and feed the same dream, investing all their resources and energy to enter highly competitive organizations. Once in, they get deluded with bureaucratic systems and the low margin of maneuver for real change. Having experienced the same, I am convinced that there are other alternatives, often more impactful and creative, to change the world: one of them is to become a social entrepreneur! I was never told at the university that this was an option.
More and more, an increasing number of projects, NGOs and startups have been launched with the main purpose of doing social good through solid and sustainable models. For or not-for profit organizations operating in diverse fields, such as health, social justice and education, are acknowledged as key actors of social change. They naturally do not replace the work of government institutions, but indeed serve as an effective complement through their high capacity to innovate and great flexibility to operate and adapt.
From my experience working at WISE and exchanging with social entrepreneurs worldwide, I can tell that there is a lot happening and one of the most attractive areas today is certainly education and technology. Two reasons account for that: On one hand, education remains one of the biggest global challenges. According to UNESCO's Global Monitoring Report, 171 million people could be lifted out of poverty if all students in low-income countries left school with basic reading skills. Big challenges are proportional to great opportunities.
On the other hand, technology has revolutionized the work of education providers by increasing the quality and access at lower costs. In addition, technology is an evolving engine that allows continuing creation and improvement at all fronts. These two elements combined have generated a boom of new initiatives in the field, with enough places for new players.
However, becoming a social entrepreneur requires expertise that formal education rarely provides. Few project founders have the multidimensional preparation necessary to avoid making serious mistakes and promote a positive impact on the ground. If we still take the example of the edtech field, we rarely find a profile with a full and equal understanding of both fields: education and technology. Instead, two caricatured types of profile are often the usual suspects found in this ecosystem: either they are mostly techies who design solutions to address educational challenges only because this is an attractive market; or they are individuals coming from the traditional educational background, but who were led to add the technological component to their projects due to the latest trends.
As a consequence of this lack of deep and multidimensional preparation, we often witness the struggle of social entrepreneurs on the field. Nine out of ten start ups fail today. To avoid ending up by being equally frustrated, here are a few takeaways:
- Let your ideas flow but keep your feet on the ground: a good idea alone is essential to help focus your energy and attract the interest of customers and investors. However, a good idea will never be successfully and sustainably implemented if not conceived within a solid and realistic model.
- Flatter your early customers: these are the customers who decided to pay for a solution they don't really know, betting that it is going to make a difference in their lives. With the great competition of today's world, these people are probably those who believe in you the most, after your mother. Work hard for their retention and they will become your key referrals for growth.
- Operate locally, observe globally: certain fields, notably when there is technology involved, have no longer boundaries for the expansion of markets. Keep your eyes open to international trends and innovative organizations, but bear in mind that social missions require local solutions. Run away from one-size-fits-all tools and design solutions that can be adaptable to your customers/beneficiaries needs, notably when these evolve.
- Understand your competitors as much as you understand your own project: by digging deeper into their mission, model and strategies, you may be surprised to find out that you actually have very few competitors. It is not easy to determine whether a library is a competitor of your online textbook platform or is it?
- Pitch, pitch, and pitch: assume that people never have time and that they are not interested in your project. You have then 30 seconds to convince them otherwise. Remember the 4Cs magical formula: be catchy, creative, clear and concise. How to do that? Practice, practice, and practice. If you want to be a social entrepreneur, you will pitch your project at least a billion times in your lifetime. The most comforting part of it is to know that one pitch will never be the same as the next one.
- Social change is not only about numbers: When you will seek for support, you will be asked to demonstrate numbers: number of beneficiaries, number of team members, number of revenue, numbers. Instead, adopt from the beginning a notion of multidimensional growth in which the number of customers and revenue streams are equally important than social impact and qualitative transformation. If you produce software, your goal is not only to achieve a sales record, but also to guarantee that your customers use the software properly and that this same software is changing their lives.
- Scale, but only at the right moment: Projects that are eager to scale rapidly may loose track of their impact, lower the quality of their services and not keep high standards at a larger scale. When it comes to growth and scaling, keeps the mantra: slowly but surely.
- Make noise: build your networks and communicate about your project. All the time. Use different types of communication channels: social media, word of mouth, pitches, conferences, etc. People need to hear about you and your initiative. All the time.
- Be positive, despite the endless challenges you will face: The life of an entrepreneur is very challenging, but the attitude and commitment of the founders is key to the success of the project and the team. Positive attitude often balances skills gap, lack of seniority or deficit of expertise. If you are motivated enough, you can do anything.
Even though it sounds quite challenging, today your capacity to make real change through your own enterprises and initiatives remains much greater than compared to what the majority of people can do at large organizations. The challenges faced are of different nature, but they mostly depend on your capacity to innovate and adapt, as of your initiative's.
Do you want to change the world? Launch your own project!

This paper combines the finite impulse response filtering with the Kalman structure (predictor/corrector) and proposes a fast iterative bias-constrained optimal finite impulse response filtering algorithm for linear discrete time-invariant models. In order to provide filtering without any requirement of the initial state, the property of unbiasedness is employed. We first derive the optimal finite impulse response filter constrained by unbiasedness in the batch form and then find its fast iterative form for finite-horizon and full-horizon computations. The corresponding mean square error is also given in the batch and iterative forms. Extensive simulations are provided to investigate the trade-off with the Kalman filter. We show that the proposed algorithm has much higher immunity against errors in the noise covariances and better robustness against temporary model uncertainties. The full-horizon filter operates almost as fast as the Kalman filter, and its estimate converges with time to the Kalman estimate.

Jared Gelband, DMD
Meet Dr. Gelband
Dr. Jared Gelband received his bachelor of science degree from the University of Pennsylvania where he majored in biology. He earned his doctor of dental medicine degree from the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (now Rutgers Dental School) and then went on to complete a four year oral and maxillofacial surgery residency at Long Island Jewish Medical Center in New Hyde Park, New York. It was there that he received the "resident of the year" award two years in a row. Dr. Gelband had the opportunity to treat patients at both Northport V.A. Medical Center and Stony Brook University Hospital (which is a level one trauma center). His extensive training encompasses a full scope of oral and maxillofacial surgical procedures. Dr. Gelband is Board Certified in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. He is also an attending at Jersey Shore University Medical Center where he participates in both patient care and resident education.
