Group mentality
If you are riding behind or in front of another rider, whether you know them or not, you can both help share the load, finds Stephen Huntley.
Understanding and using the skills of group riding will help you when you're heading out and about with a buddy, riding with a number of friends, or even simply having a rider sit in behind you on your commute.
Hand signals
Try and get into the habit of regularly using hand signals. They will instill confidence in those riding with you, help them avoid potential hazards and give other road users a clear indication of what you're about to do. If there are more than two of you, the signals should be repeated and passed down the line of riders.
Hand signals invariably mean taking one hand off the brake. The front brake, operated by your right hand, is the strongest and most efficient, but the rear brake brings you to a more gradual stop; choose whichever makes you feel the most in control. Sometimes, however, you will need both hands on your handlebars or brakes to maintain control of the bike, and timely signalling is not possible. If you don't feel very stable or safe with one hand off the handlebars, or the bike seems to drift when you lift a hand, try to regularly get on a quiet trail and practise; it's a skill you'll quickly pick up.
As well as the signals shown here, you may come across others while out riding. Some bunch riders throw their right elbow outwards when they want you to pass and hold up their right hand when they are stopping due to a puncture. You might also see a rider wave their hand flat over the road; that normally indicates a hazard that is spread over the road, like broken glass or loose gravel.
Using a constant hand signal when in a roundabout is also a good idea. Try to continually point directly towards the exit you will be heading out on.
And finally, one of the most effective signals is a friendly wave to a motorist or rider who has shown courtesy.
1. Debris/potholes
When a rider is sitting fairly close behind you in an attempt to reduce their wind resistance (drafting), they won't have a very clear view of what's happening up ahead, and they might not have time to see a hazard such as a pothole or a pile of broken glass. Give them as much advance warning as you can by pointing to the hazard as you approach it, and continue pointing as you go by it (but always keep your head up and your eyes on the road/trail ahead; don't stare at the hazard).
2. Turning
The only legally required hand signal for a bike rider is to indicate when they are turning or changing lanes to the right, but for the benefit of following riders and other road users, you should also indicate a left turn. Put your arm out in a straight line and point your hand towards the direction you are going. Be confident and unambiguous with the action and the signal. If you are moving right, do a very deliberate head check first, then signal. The head check and the arm movement combined are a clear indication to those behind, including drivers, that you are about to move right.
3. Obstacle ahead
If you're approaching a parked car, or some other obstacle which you and the following riders will need to get round, swing your left hand behind the small of your back and point to the right. If you're going to have to pull out to get around, have a look backwards over your right shoulder (a head check) to see if there's anything coming up behind you before making the manoeuver.
4. Slowing/stopping
Riders may be following at a very close range, and bikes can pull up very quickly, so this is a signal you should use regularly as you slow down or prepare to stop. Throw your right arm back towards the following rider with your fingers spread and your open palm sweeping towards them. Make this signal very definite and pronounced, and hold your hand back for a few seconds to emphasise it even more.
5. Please overtake
There are times when you'll want the following rider or riders to move ahead of you; maybe because you need to ride at a slower pace, or perhaps you are sick of being the one doing all the hard work into the wind. Use a pronounced sweeping motion with your right forearm and hand, palm facing forward, and repeat a couple of times. If it's appropriate, move slightly to the left as you do this signal to make passing easier.
Verbal calls are another valuable tool to use when riding.
Call out "Passing" when overtaking a rider (always overtake on their right, and pass with consideration and care). If a car is coming up behind, call out "Car back." Also call out "Door" in a very loud voice if one is about to open on you; it alerts following riders, and may freeze the car occupant into holding the door unopened.
You can also call out the name of any hazard as you're approaching and pointing to it, and when signaling an obstacle ahead you can shout out the name of the obstacle; for example "Car up." In a group of riders it can also help to call out "Stopping" or "Slowing" as well as doing the appropriate hand signal.
A huge advantage of riding behind someone is that they take the force of the headwind, while you cruise along in their slipstream. You'll only get the full benefit if you're close enough; about 1-1.5m when you're learning the skill, and as you get confident, about a bike wheel distant. Allow greater distances in poor conditions, and when going downhill.
You have to be constantly vigilant and alert when riding this close to someone. Don't get caught staring down at their back wheel; keep your head up. There are three things you should be constantly scanning: the bum/middle-back of the rider ahead to judge how close they are; over their right shoulder to see what's happening up the road; and through their front wheel so you're seeing the condition of the road you're about to ride over.
When drafting, don't overlap any part of your front wheel with the back wheel of the rider ahead; always stay behind unless overtaking. You can line up directly behind the back wheel of the rider in front, but many riders like to line up very slightly to one side; this gives a clearer view ahead and a bit more room to manoeuver.
Be wary of sitting in too close behind someone seated and riding up a hill. If they get out of the saddle they may dramatically decelerate, or even pull the bike slightly backwards, and you'll be on top of them before you know it.
- Try to ride predictably, with no sudden movements.
- If you have a mechanical fault, or any other reason to stop in
an odd place, pull over and get completely off the road/trail.
- If you happen to come across a group of riders who clearly
know each other and are riding together, don't automatically
assume you can join their group; be polite, and ask.
- Try not to brake too hard, or too often. Look ahead and
anticipate, and if you need to slow down, try sitting up and
increasing your wind resistance; your drag can often achieve
the desired effect.
- Don't always be the draftee; if you're able, take your turn
riding into the headwind.
- You are legally allowed to ride two-abreast, as long as you're
not more than 1.5m apart. But common sense should indicate
that sometimes it just isn't appropriate. It might be unsafe
(for example, over the crest of a hill following a blind corner)
or you might be inconsiderately holding up traffic. Use your
judgement, and err on the side of caution and good manners.
- And a final courtesy note; if you wear well-worn lycra knicks,
when you bend over on the saddle they can become very
taut and transparently thin – like sheer tights – and will give
those following a very clear, and perhaps unwelcome, view of
your rear end. If you're not sure how threadbare your knicks
have become, get a (close) friend to check you out from
behind while riding.
Where to look when following another rider
1. The lower back
Judge your following distance by looking at the lower back of the rider in front. Do not focus on the rider's rear wheel.
2. Over the shoulder
Glance over the shoulder of the rider in front to see what is coming up ahead of you.
3. The front wheel
Glance down at the front wheel of the rider ahead to check on the state of the road you are about to ride over.

How about "don't draft total strangers". Up with that is "don't pass on the left", and "don't pass someone then immediately either slow down or turn left". Also "might is not right" – bunch riders do not have automatic right of way over solo riders, nor is it ok for them to ride solo commuters into parked cars.

Great info. I will have to practice taking one hand off the handle bars. Practice practice ………
Michael McGrath permalink12 June, 2013 8:09 pm
I'm familiar with the wave/point behind to warn following cyclists of obstacles ahead, but often find myself torn by the need to also signal to the right to let passing vehicles know I'm moving further into the lane.
This sometimes confuses following riders but, as the fatal accident in Sydney over the weekend demonstrates, it is essential to give motor vehicles plenty of visual warning of your intentions as well as those behind.
Matt permalink13 June, 2013 10:03 am
You can never signal too much! Was using hand signals and verbal calls whilst doing a slow tour of Buenos Aires recently. One of the group made a point of thanking me as it made her more confident (as someone who rarely rides) on the road.
+1 to the thank you wave to courteous drivers too, good way to promote the cause!
Peter permalink14 June, 2013 6:33 pm
When I was at school (many years ago), police would visit and explain the road rules applicable to cyclists. Hand signals for turning and stopping are an integral part and are to be used by law. Of course additional hand signals have evolved over the years, as discussed in the article.
The most difficult situations for cyclists is that most motorists do not know our rights – e.g. many are likely to take your right arm off rather than back off, when you indicate to turn right or wish to move to the centre of the road to negotiate a single lane round-a-bout. The other favourite manouvre by motorists is overtaking a cyclist just before turning left (either at an intersection or round-a-bout) then slowing right down and forcing us off the road or brake hard. Bottom line, we have to be extremely vigilant and assume all motorists are out to get us – defensive driving.
Mike Pearson permalink15 June, 2013 1:07 pm
The more you act responsibly and confidently on the carriageway the more you are earning respect for all cyclists. We all have a responsibility to market the sport and hopefully, just hopefully, we may prevent a fellow cyclist from getting the abuse we may have deserved as a result of some inconsiderate or foolish act previously. United we stand!
Tony D permalink19 June, 2013 2:53 am
I've never understood why some people object to being drafted by strangers. Ever since I read some research somewhere that when 2 cyclists ride in line it reduces the lead cyclist effort by 5%, I'm more than happy to have someone ride behind. Also it's often the way cycling friendships start. Finally, although it is annoying when people overtake and then slow down, if they have been riding behind for a while maybe they didn't realise just how much effort the draft was saving them. It takes time to learn whether you can sustain a higher, or even the same speed as the lead cyclist.

Fame and (mis)fortune
Our final Fame and (mis)Fortune tour led by volunteer Bob Dinsmore will look at Victorian literary figure, Henry Morley. Henry once visited Bethlem in the 1850's, and talks of an institution transformed. Morley's conclusion, after a review of Bethlem's chequered history? That "thousands of middle class homes contain nothing so pretty as a ward in Bedlam" and that "as to all the small comforts of life, patients in Bethlehem are as much at liberty to make provision for themselves as they would be at home".
This will then be followed by an introduction to the Museum's permanent displays, highlighting objects, artwork, photographs and the interactive exploration of mental health care.

All I can do is keep doing something today. I cant worry about yesterday or fret about tomorrow SIGH just get something done today.
I am lucky really to have so many options, things to do. If it is raining I can (could) ride the trainer in the basement. P90X DVDs with lots of options, other programs. Sunny? Run outside. Hockey, ball hockey, baseball, snowshoeing, hiking. There is always something to do.
Yesterday the weather was awesome and once my work was complete (yes complete, marking is finished) I went home and prepared for a run. I took the two little girls on their bikes and we went the 8km loop. Some of the roads were a little busy but the kids did awesome right until we hit the hill up to the house, then the whines came out a bit (Im going to DIE) but they really did great.
Im still running funny, stiff and careful. Its hard on the knees and ankles.
This morning I got up and after the kids left for School I did P90X. I gave in and restarted Day 1. I just feel lost in it at the moment and how can it be hardful to go back to the beginning? :):)
Now I do have to do something else that is active today for the 500 calories burned, but in the rain Im not sure what it will be; I cannot imagine sitting on the bike trainer for a n hour with my tail bone agony. But if I learned anything this morning it is that I can do squats and pull ups and push ups but I cannot do downward facing dog and I believe that will put pretty muich all of yoga off the table. I might this time around replace some of those days in P90X with a run. Rather than doing both. Will see how awful it is; maybe by Friday I can manage to do the yoga. Or just skip anything that hurts. All I had to skip in the Chest and Back DVD was the Dive Bomber Pushups because the DFD at the top was just too awful and pulling back up into it seemed rediculously hard. LOL Maybe in a couple of weeks.
I need to try an Ab workout that does not involve sitting on my butt. Im thinking Hipo Hop Abs might be the thing but I have to find it somewhere. Will have to wait for a bit
Onward and upward...

Finest Luxury
The luxury interior and controls you'll find with a premium automaker like Audi is unprecedented. It just "feels" right. There isn't the clunky features some of the other, dare I say American cars have. It's got nice seats (especially the Recaro's), and nice finishes.
The exterior looks classy, and not at all cheap. Even the older Audi's look nice, and were well ahead of their time.
With that said; you pay for luxury. Audi's aren't cheap at all, but you shouldn't be trying to find luxury on a budget.

Analysis of mitochondrial DNA in forensic applications has enabled the identification of a missing person through comparison with additional maternal relatives. Most forensic applications are based on sequencing of both hypervariable regions of the mtDNA. Sequencing of these regions has been commonly done using Sanger-type sequencing (STS) methodology, which is expensive, time-consuming and laborious. Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, such as the Ion Torrent PGM™ System platform, overcomes most of these issues. In this study, samples from the Guatemalan population (n=40) were sequenced with both Ion Torrent PGM™ technology and STS methods. A high level of consistency (98%) was observed among data derived from both methods. Most of the discrepancies were point heteroplasmy, which were more easily detected by PGM™ technology. In terms of performance, the NGS method was shown to be quick, with high-throughput and more efficient compared to the traditional STS method. More accurate and reliable sequencing data were obtained from the Ion Torrent PGM™ method due to its high level of coverage. Sequencing data for all individuals, representing 19 different family groups, were obtained using the NGS technology. Sequence polymorphisms were detected in 55 positions, from which 26 were observed only in relatives belonging to the same family and were not observed for any other family group. In a forensic context, haplotype specific polymorphisms are the basis for identification and comparison between evidence and reference samples purposes. Haplotypes between maternally related individuals were consistent in 18 family groups.

Okay so this is obviously not the twins, but as a side note, what kind of cure is there for a 2 year old who bites his nails to the nub? Is life really that stressful or is it just a habit he has because of some unknown reason? I wish I knew and could find a good safe cure.
Also these are out of order as usual, but here is Riley who at 6 months was crawling and at almost 7 months is standing up in his crib and on the furniture and anywhere else he can pull himself up to. What am I going to do? I thought I would have a bit more time before I had to be pulling him off of things.
The babies can both sit up and make all kinds of babbling sounds. They are still so happy and so fun. We can't wait for summer when we can all go swimming and be beach babies. Disneyland has gotten easier and life in general is becoming more routine. I guess until they start walking around!

As I step out of my car I hear a splat. I look down. I'm covered head to toe in pigeon poop. I have no towels or napkins in the car. The only thing I can reasonably clean myself with are some scraps of paper. I use them to wipe the poop off my arms and my head.
I find a public bathroom. There are no paper towels, only a hand dryer. I'm wearing a white blouse which turns see-through when I try to wash the poop off. The toilet paper proves useless for wiping, and crumbles into pieces when I wet it. I also realize pigeon poop isn't white. It's gray and brown. And boy does it make a mess.
I walk out of the store and into a sudden downpour. I don't have an umbrella, and I'm wearing a pair of good shoes. My white top becomes completely transparent. At least the rain has washed the poop off my car, so I can touch the door handle again.
I come home and discover I've gotten my period early, and the cat threw up on the carpet while I was out. I start the laundry, clean the puke, go to bed, and hide under the covers indefinitely.

The Straight Talk iPhone 4s is the popular Apple iPhone 4s combined with a Straight Talk plan with a fixed monthly rate and no minimum number of months.
The iPhone 4S went on sale on October 14, 2011 and sold four million units in the first three days of sales.
The CNET company evaluates a lot of electronics and one of the ways it reviews mobile phones is to abuse them.
The first test is to freeze it for two hours. The iPhone 4S had a slight icy coating on the screen but it powered up. Much to the tester's surprise, the phone shut down due to a low battery. This, despite the fact that the battery was two-thirds charged before it went into the freezer.
She charged the battery for 30 minutes and turned on the iPhone 4S with no problems. It stayed on and got a passing grade but the tester considered the battery discharge a hiccup.
The second test is a heat test, where the iPhone 4S was placed in a fish tank along with two heat lamps and cooked for one hour at 150 degrees F. The phone came out too hot to hold so it was left to cool down. Once she could hold it, she turned it on and it looked to her like the iPhone 4S was had spent a day at the beach, meaning that it was not working very hard. She concluded that the iPhone was nowhere near the top operating temperature.
The third test was a series of four drops of varying heights. From hip height, it suffered a thick purple line running down the left side of the display. A drop from shoulder height resulted in a blue screen of death – just a blank bluis screen. A third drop from the same height resulted in another blue screen of death. The final drop was down a flight of stairs, resulting in a chip on the front and back. It skipped down the steps and bounced around the bottom. But it still worked and despite the thick purple bar, it was given a passing grade.
The fourth test was a swimming test in the bottom of a fish bowl. It sat for about 15 seconds and then got dried off. It turned on just fine and earned a passing grade.
The fifth and final test was a trip through the wash cycle of a washing machine. Not surprisingly, it did not turn on after it came out. The iPhone 4S went into a bag full of packets that absorb moisture for three days. It did not turn on, so it received a failing grade for the washing machine.
This test was prompted by several viewers who said that their smartphones went through the washing machine, a victim of forgetfulness. To be fair, it is doubtful most smartphones would survive such an episode.
The Straight Talk iPhone 4S is a fantastic combination of a superior smartphone and a simple plan. Get 1,000 minutes for $30 per month and unlimited minutes for $45/month. You can change plans without paying any fees so you do not have to lock yourself into a long-term commitment.

31/01/2017 Solo exploring/getting perfectly lost in the Blue Mountains.
Today has been beautiful. Sheer bliss from beginning to end. I woke super early to catch the 7am train, from Sydney to Katoomba, for a day exploring in the Blue Mountains. Dora Explorer mode x 100!
When I finally reached Katoomba after two hours on the train, with the twinkly morning sun shining in on my notebook, I found the explorer bus instantly. The girl at the desk was enrichingly alert for 9am, as she sold me a day pass for the mountains and told me where to catch my double deckered chariot. Within a matter of minutes I was onboard the bus heading towards my first stop of choice, Katoomba Falls. With no idea what to expect, I followed the first trail that I found, down winding steps towards my first waterfall of the day. But little did I know what was in store for me later on!
I got chatting to an elderly guy who knows the trails like the back of his hand. He was so healthy for his age and I cannot help but aspire to be like him in my 70's. Such a glowing trooper! He told me that I absolutely must follow my current path all the way to Echo Point for the best view of The Three Sisters, as this has always been his favourite. I was honoured to follow his favourite path, and so I stuck to his instructions precisely.
After walking this trail for around an hour, just like he said, there was only one thing between myself and a pretty spectacular view of The Three Sisters. They call this the GIANT stairway for a very good reason!
A sheer set of vertical steps took me about half an hour to climb, with a few breaks in between to catch my breath. But holy hell the views on the way to the top were insane! Rainforest and mountains as far as the eye could see, all dazzled in a stunning haze. Like a spell had been cast across this enchanting valley.
When I finally reached the top, I was relieved to find a slither of civilization, and treated myself to a coffee to go with my packed lunch. Perfectly on time, my bus arrived just after I finished the last bite of my apple, so I hopped onboard and decided in that moment where I wanted to go next. I rode the bus to Leura Cascades next, and the driver kindly handed me an ice cold bottle of water as I left.
The most popular of the Leura Cascades was incredible. An infinite number of steps, which the river danced its way down. However, this was not the main highlight for me. I was determined to find somewhere a little less 'on the map'.
As I walked along past the cascades I found a sign pointing towards a lesser beaten track which read "Unstable path. Experienced walkers only." That sounds like me! And so, off I went down the rickety old steps, over muddy puddles, jumping from stepping stone to log to stepping stone, until I began to hear the sound of rushing water grow louder once again. Meters below me was my very own waterfall. Away from the path of the average tourist this secluded beauty was magnificently peaceful. I took a seat right beside the beast and watched as the mist from the top created mini rainbows across the rocks. I sat here for a while and used the energy of my new sacred space to do some creative writing.
From here I was going to take the rickety steps back up to find the bus, but I discovered a pathway which led to Gordon Falls about an hour's walk away, so decided to follow that instead. I barely came across another soul on this path.
Silent like a blonde ninja in Nike, I was able to see a tonne of wildlife that you'd never be quiet enough to see in a group or even a pair. Butterflies in a plethora of colours, tiny lizards, rare Lyrebirds, and these bizarre little creatures which looked like crickets but when they jumped they burst into vibrant yellow butterflies. With just a click of their heels they sprouted wings and vanished into the undergrowth.
Along this path, I must admit, I got a little lost. But I wasn't worried in the slightest. I came across a viewpoint that allowed me to look out across the entire jungle beneath me. You know that 'on top of the world' feeling, well yeah! I felt so omniscient, yet so tiny at the same time.
Around 6pm I decided to call it day. As much as I know there is more to explore, a curious adventurer like me could spend an entire lifetime in the Blue Mountains and genuinely still discover something new everyday!
Lots of love,
Sophie x

I have had lots of fun this week with making christening type dresses for 13 inch Lee Middleton baby dolls. I did one in blue and one in peach. Each one is a little different as I only make one of a kind outfits. They are both listed on my website. After I finished up these, I was in a lace overload so it was on to something more simple.
Then it was onto the last of the Lee Middleton dolls that I got. This one is a 15 inch toddler doll from 2000. I just did her is a little white with red rose buds, cotton print dress and bloomers. She is a little cutie with pretty brown eyes that seem to talk to you.
As this is the last of these dolls, I have 3 Alexander dolls from 1965 that I have to see what I can do with. All have some ills and not sure I will be able to fix them or not. These are 13 inch dolls and I am going to have to really work on them to be able to do anything with them. Next week should be good for working on them.......but first I really, really need to clean the sewing room.

Although some may scoff at the idea, I believe advertising, when done well, is a form of art. Sure, we get paid to create it, but the creatives I've known (at least, those who deserve the title) put everything they've got into their work.
Doesn't matter what the product is. Doesn't matter if the client expects it. We put forth our best efforts, because, well, the part of us that's artistic demands it. That might sound pompous, but it's true.
During the concepting phase of a new campaign, there's always one idea that everyone falls in love with. One that's just a little bit unexpected, maybe even crazy. We call those our wild cards.
Most of the time, those ideas never see the light of day. But when they do? They can be truly inspiring. Kinda like this TV spot for the Washington Lottery.
I heart this commercial. Whenever I'm having a bad day at work, I make myself watch it. As a reminder, you know? Of what can be when you dream hard enough.

Our Little Big Man brings us a lot of surprises, that made us super proud of him. Growing up we were never pressured to be on the top ten, what our parents taught us, is to value our education more than getting those honors. But a big surprise came with our little brother, he did not just value his education but even made Papa go up the St. Catherine's stage.
|Notre Dame Siena will always have PASSION for TRUTH and COMPASSION for HUMANITY

It's a new week, a new day, a time to "get your head in the game" I'm thinkin! While others may run to catch up, may watch in wonder, may just sit on the sidelines, it is YOUR day… your week, your time of new beginnings!
YOU are the one to put your foot solid on the ground and get your head in the game… as Olivia so aptly showed us here today in a fierce move on the soccer field!
When we show up and show out, in it to win it, all things become possible, all things become exciting, whether from our chair, our car, our steps in the day… In it to win it, as I was told yesterday by Kamryn after he and his team won the NRV ELITE Championship of March Madness… where he scored 50 points in three games shooting the hoops! He let me know he has found his game again and is on point now, shooting the hoop! Way to go NRV ELITE, congratulations as you strived for excellence with your "head in the game" and your striving for excellence. We can all learn a lesson here, to be in it to win it!
This is our moment, in our work, our life our life's work, in the breaths we take and the breaths that take our breath away in kindness compassion and care. With our head in the game, our game face on, and follow through with hope, belief and authenticity.
How's that for form, follow through and authenticity? Live like no one is watching, and follow through as though you are in it to win it!
Life is not a dress rehearsal, go for it as spring is just around that corner, although it is a hard sell to those out in the areas of snow, sleet, rain, and frost today I know! That groundhog is even blushing and trying to not feel too awkward in that prediction made not so long ago I do believe as folks are still bundled up and asking please no more cold weather now!
Yet, we are all winners and all await the warmth, the jonquils in bloom and warm waters to soothe our bodies and our souls as we watch the colors replace the browning of leaves in the world we live in… The tulips are astounding, and the colors are now about to peak from the cold ground, look around as you leap into your week, it is a new day, a new time, a time of new beginnings! It is time for us to kick those bugs that are lingering and zapping energy and making that feeling of hibernation and niffles just go away like the frosts of cold…
IT IS TIME to just feel good, to turn off the news that depresses, that instills fears and makes ya wonder if the world has gone mad, and to turn on some music, find your dance and enjoy YOU and those that matter to ya.
Remember our friend Joey Graff who lives for Mondays, and the wonderment of dancing on desks and waving at folks in cars in rush hour! I can only imagine the gestures he receives in INDIANA as he jumps about his day on Mondays there!
It's your day friends, get your head in the game, your heart into that attitude of gratitude place
and STOMP…
Pull out the wading pool and fill it with some water if you have to, put one toe in, and think SPRING… take a grand leap of faith and know that the warm months are just around the corner!
Let's do this : one or two step style with our feet in the water and our hearts just a pounding while we are just thankful for EVERYTHING, and I give great thanks for all of you!
Prayers goin UP…
Walk in Beauty,


text: Well, I don't know what day I am on. As far as I am concerned, this is Day 1 again, but I think that might get a little confusing. I am going to have like 10 million Day 1's, but 10 million Day 1's are better than giving up for good. I mean, one Day… Continue reading 10 Million Day One's

Date Creek Ranch beef is Good for Us All!
Knowing exactly where your beef comes from gives your family the reassurance that your food is coming from people who care about the quality of your meat. We strive to keep our customers happy by producing a clean, healthy, and delicious product.
Our beef is 100% grass fed and lives entirely on native forages, irrigated pasture, and occasionally some hay. We do not use any antibiotics, steroids or hormones. We have an excellent meat cutter who dry ages your meat (for tenderness and to enhance the flavor) for 14 days before processing it.
Our ranch is always open to our customers. Please visit (contact us to make an appointment) and get to know us and our operation personally.
Grass Fed Beef is Good For …
Good for the land
Our family ranch is managed holistically. This means that all decisions are carefully (see Our Goals) evaluated to determine if they are environmentally, socially, and economically sound.
Diversity of all life on this land contributes to our quality of life and healthy soils give us a foundation on which to build a successful business. Date Creek Ranch has a very low carbon footprint. All irrigation of our pastures, orchard, and water needs for livestock is done with solar power. Our unique and carefully planned grazing management sequesters carbon.
Date Creek Ranch has not used any herbicides, pesticides, or chemical fertilizers on the land or the animals since 1983.
Good for the cows
Our cows live their entire lives on the open range. They harvest their own food, are on fresh pasture, select their own diet, and enjoy clean and spacious environments. They are never put into a feedlot.
Our cows are happy cows. We treat them quietly, with respect, and gratitude. We believe we have an unwritten contract with our cows. We give them the very best life we can and in turn they provide us with a means to feed our family. Each day we ask ourselves, "How can we make life better for our animals?"
Good for the wildlife
We are predator friendly. We believe that all wildlife, including predators, play a vital role in maintaining a healthy ecosystem.
We co-exist with coyotes, mountain lions, foxes, deer, bobcats, javelina, ringtailed cats, eagles, the occasional bear, and many other species. We are proud of the wide diversity of wildlife here on the ranch.
Good for us
Providing grassfed beef for our customers gives us the opportunity to work together as a family, make a good living, follow our passions, provide good food for families and thus preserve open spaces and protect this beautiful land from development. We have been direct marketing beef to local families since 1985.
Grass Fed Beef has many health benefits!
Reduced Risk from E. Coli: Consumers of grass fed meat nearly eliminate their risk of becoming infected with pathogenic E. coli bacteria. Cows have evolved to digest grass (roughages) much more efficiently than grains. Feeding grain to cattle can make their digestive tracts abnormally acidic and the resident E. coli bacteria becomes resistant to the acid. When the acid-resistant E. coli is consumed by humans a high percentage of harmful E. coli will survive the acid in our stomachs and thus can cause serious illness.
Rich in CLA: Grass-fed beef contains "conjugated linoleic acid" or CLA which has been shown to help fight cancer. When ruminants are raised on fresh pasture alone, their products contain from three to five times more CLA than products from animals fed conventional grain diets.
Rich in heart friendly "Omega 3" fatty acids: Meat from grass-fed animals has two to four times more omega-3 fatty acids than meat from grain- fed animals. Omega-3s are called "good fats" because they play a vital role in every cell and system in your body.
Vitamin E: The meat from pastured cattle is four times higher in vitamin E than meat from the feedlot cattle and, interestingly, almost twice as high as meat from the feedlot cattle given vitamin E supplements.

CFO Forum
IMA Peer Group Forums «
Research & Advisory «
Conferences & Roundtables «
Publications «
eSubscription Forms «
As part of its mandate to help CFOs understand
developments in the operating environment and constantly
be aware of 'bigger picture', The India CFO Forum
provides research-based opinions and analysis on the
economic, political and market environment. This takes
the form of written reports emailed directly to member
CFOs. A complete archive of CFO Forum content is
available in the Knowledge Centre. Access requires a
login and password, which is provided to members only.
However, select samples are available for general
Economic intelligence and research: IMA India's research on the Indian and Regional economy aims to provide clear-cut opinions on the emerging outlook together with an ongoing assessment of underlying economic trends, developments and their impact on business. From exhaustive analytical reports to quick one-pagers, the portfolio provides comprehensive coverage of the economy in which your business operates.
IMA perspectives: As part of its ongoing research across industries and management issues, IMA India seeks to provide a new or insightful perspective on sectoral developments, emerging risks and opportunities. These are not 'factual updates' or industry newsletters, but thought provoking opinions based on in-house research. Our clients find these useful both from the perspective of receiving an independent view and for furthering internal debate on factors impacting strategy and performance.
Business and management surveys: On the premise that the most authoritative understanding of business trends and management practices lies in the minds of practitioners themselves, IMA carries out a number of surveys aimed at soliciting CXO opinions. The Annual Business Confidence Survey is amongst the exhaustive analysis of its kind in India, drawing responses from over 400 companies on an extensive list of metrics and business priorities. The Annual CXO Compensation Survey is perhaps the most focussed salary survey on C-level executives in India, and draws responses from almost 200 companies across sectors. Beyond these, IMA undertakes several other topical surveys on issues relating to talent management, CEO priorities, and the like.
Conclusions papers of briefing sessions: IMA India prepares summary documents called Conclusions Papers, after each briefing session of The India CEO Forum. These papers capture key issues discussed at the briefings and constitute an excellent source of reference material, both for participants as well as those that were unable to attend. As with other updates, Conclusions Papers are useful documents for wider circulation within the management teams of client companies.

Can you believe that we are 25 weeks in? I can't.
Full spread.
First half of the week.
Second half of the week.
I have probably blogged the story for every single one of these pictures this week so no need to elaborate on that. I am loving that as of now all the pictures are printed and all the journaling is done to date. :)
I love that I am staying more on top of it this year. This weekly post is definitely a HUGE help.
Ali Edwards is doing a little project called A Week in the Life. I have been dying to give it a try for the past two years. I just feel like the amount of work it will be is daunting on top of everything else that I have going on. I was all set to do it this year and then realized that it will be our vacation week that she is doing it. So, I am currently contemplating waiting until next year or going ahead with this year and just picking a different week. The jury is still out. Feel free to drop your suggestion. I don't hate comments. In fact, I rather like them. :)

Last night Travalon and I went to see Urban Bush Women, a dance troupe from New York City that advertises its emphasis on African roots. Travalon was not super excited, but he was willing to give it a chance, at least until intermission. The dance troupe itself consisted of mostly black ladies, but there were two white ones, and one black man. The first half was jazzy, and the costumes were sparkly, and we both enjoyed it. When intermission arrived, I asked Travalon if he would like to stay or go, and he said he would be willing to stay. Then, of course, it got avant garde in the second half, and among the strange things the dancers did were put their hands down the front of their pants and give the audience the finger. I would just consider it tasteless, but there were a number of school-age kids in the audience, so then it really bothered me. Shouldn't they have noted somewhere that it was an adult-themed show? There was a meet-and-greet afterwards, but we didn't stay for that. I have to say, I was expecting a bit more African influence and a little less weirdness, but the dancers were really good, and a couple of them were phenomenal singers too. Why waste all that talent on silly provocative nonsense?

Sunday is probably my favorite day of the week and it is primarily because it's the day when I usually go to worship at Grace Community Church. I first visited a worship service over ten years ago, and felt like I'd come home from the first song we sang. I brought my family back with me the following Sunday and we joined a few months later. I know that no church is perfect and that Grace is not the place that everyone wants to join, but for me, it is my favorite place to worship and serve the Lord.
Some of the reasons I am thankful for Grace Community Church are:
- The gospel is unashamedly, clearly and boldly preached there every week.
- The leadership is genuine and have servant hearts.
- The worship times are meaningful and point me to God.
- I have grown (and continue to grow) spiritually there.
- It is a place of intimate community and the people there have surrounded me with love, care, encouragement, accountability, and grace.
- My son has been given a strong foundation in his faith and has people who invest their lives into helping him continue to grow spiritually.
- There is a deep commitment to being a part of furthering the Kingdom of God globably, as well as in our back yard.

Holy crap. Do you see this over on the sidebar? —————————->
For posterity's sake, I should copy this down. It says:
Countdown to the Minneapolis Marathon
June 3rd, 2012
8 days to go
I'm actually doing this.
I've gone through all sorts of emotions the last week. Mostly
sheer terror nerves.
The mere thought of the marathon has been enough to get me running to the bathroom.
All through the first few months of this training cycle, I was positive. Upbeat. While running 15, 17, 18 miles, although (of course) it hurt some, I was just so excited that I was doing it. I was following the plan. I was going to run a marathon.
Then May hit. We got busy. Super busy. You might say "life got in the way." Soccer started. Friday night practices, Saturday morning games, Sunday afternoon games. A trip to Washington, DC. Three trips to Chicago. Then, baseball and t-ball started. More practices. More games. Hardly an evening at home. Then I traveled to Switzerland.
Through it all, I tried to follow the plan. But the weekday runs suffered. Although the plan called for three weekly runs, I was struggling to get out once during the week. I finished all my long runs, but instead of meeting up with the Live Uncommon crew and enjoying running with friends and good conversation, I was out at 5:30 am, in the dark, running alone on the canal bike path. I ran with time constraints: "I have to finish this 19 mile run by 9, so I can get home, shower, and be at the soccer game by 10."
Apology to the soccer moms: I actually finished the 20 mile run, got home at 9:30, and turned right around to take my oldest to his soccer game. I think I might have splashed water on my face, otherwise I went straight from running to his game. Oddly enough, nobody sat by me…
Intermission: I just had to go clean up a spill of a full cup of coffee off the kitchen floor. Apparently the toddler can now reach things on the table. Fun times.
Intermission 2: I returned to the computer just to be immediately called back to help open a game box. This blog post will happen, just maybe not today.
Hooray, my husband just got home. Maybe now I can type for more than 10 seconds at a time.
Those long solo runs were tough, both mentally and physically. I got through them, and I didn't cut out any miles (okay, the 19 mile run was 18.83, but I was not going one.more.step). And I know that running them alone was good for my mental toughness. But, then again, maybe it wasn't.
Once I started deviating from "The Plan," my head started playing mind tricks on me. As long as I was sticking to the plan, I knew I would be fine. But the last few weeks really started to get to me mentally. People kept saying, "you've done the training, you are fine!" But I didn't feel fine, I felt like someone who was cheating on the plan and not doing the work. And as any runner knows, "not doing the work" = "tough race." Combine that with the fact that I wasn't running with the group (and therefore missing the support that comes with it…misery loves company!), and my mind was just not in it.
Let me state that I have never, never doubted my ability to finish this race. I still don't. Through this whole training period, I have always known I will finish. That's just the way I am. Walk, run, crawl, I will cross that finish line. But my confidence was rocked when I started to feel that my training was not quite up to par. So I needed a good group run today just to get my head back in the game.
And a good group run is exactly what I got. Of course the speedies took off and left us slowpokes in the dust, (Jen and myself). And poor Josiah got caught in the middle doing his version of a solo group run. 😉 But it was still much faster than my long runs, and so it was a good challenge for me. And I felt good through most of it, even with my jello-y legs, so it was just what I needed. I drove home listening to the XM Pink Floyd channel (yeah, it's awesome), and the combination of endorphins, music, and coffee made me feel so much more optimistic for this race.
I'm excited again. I'm going to run a marathon!

AIMS AMP CAP REIT, will it start to go up soon?
Recently, after dropping a lot, REITS as a sector has a sign of turning up. From the FTSE ST real estate Investment Trust index, it can be seen that this sector is turning up already and was quite strong for the past two month. One investment style is to find stocks with good yield so that even the share price goes down, the investor still get the dividend or yield and is not likely to take high risk. If the investor manages to entry at good timing and the price goes up thereafter, he may get both the yield and the capital appreciation. As REITS sector is turning up now, if one can find a REIT with a good yield and just turning up from the bottom, it may become a good investment for him. AIMS AMP REIT at this moment is a potential stock to provide this kind of opportunity
AIMS AMP REIT has been dropping for around 1 whole year already. From weekly chart we can see that after breaking down the support at 1.35, it managed to hold well and did not drop any more. MACD histogram already formed a bullish divergence, indicating that the sellers are turning weak and buyers may step in soon. From the daily chart, it can be seen that both MACD histogram and Moving averages are indicating bullish signal. AIMSAMP REITS issue right in late Feb, this is another reason to push down the price during that time. However, it managed to turn up only 1 month after the issue of the rights. This is another sign of strength. From the fundamental perspective, the recently financial statement released on 29 Jan report an increase of gross revenue and net property income for 15.4% and 18.6%, respectively on yearly basis, indicating that the company is have a healthy growth. The annual yield was 7.5%, which is quite attractive. One may consider buy AIMS AMP REIT if the price goes above the resistance at 1.35. By doing this, one is buying a high yield and stable company at a good timing where it may just turn up. For shot term investors or traders, the recently low may be considered as a support to set stop loss.

"Corresponding on paper lets you elevate a simple pleasure into an art form. And art has always survived technology. A handwritten note is like dining by candlelight instead of flicking on the lights, like making a gift instead of ordering a product, like taking a walk instead of driving. Handwritten notes will add a lot to your life. You can still use the telephone or the Web for the daily chores of staying in touch, but for the words that matter, it's courteous, classy, caring, and civilized to pick up a pen." From The Art of the Handwritten Note by Margaret Shepherd.
As I strolled through the "Bargain" shelves at Barnes and Noble, this book title, The Art of the Handwritten Note, caught my eye. While I glanced through the pages, I realized that I have very few friends who correspond through handwritten letters or notes. Correspondence from friends and family is dear to me. Yet rarely do I print out an e-mail and tack it to my bulletin board, nor do I record phone calls for sentimentality. Tucked under the ribbons of the rose patterned memory board hanging on the wall are verse cards and letters penned by my closest friends. The treasures that fill our keepsake boxes are things done by hand.
Picture a woman seated at a desk, her skirt flowing around her, the inkwell open before her and a quill pen in her hand as she begins to write a letter. The pen against the paper makes a scratching sound with each stroke indicating the thought that passes from author to paper and soon to recipient. Perhaps her face is in her hand and she gazes into space searching for the appropriate words to express her feelings. That sounds lovely, but how often do we find ourselves in such a position? It is true that quill pens and flowing skirts are not as common as they once were, but the handwritten note is equally as elegant and lovely today as it was when Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy quarreled about true reputations.
A handwritten note does not need a specific occasion, although there are occasions that call for them. Thank-you notes will be left to another F.S. post altogether, for they occupy a special category of the notes we are discussing. You do not have to have perfect penmanship or a talent for artistic embellishments to make a note worth sending. Notes sent by mail require forethought and a willingness to bless. In an age that makes communication instant, messages spontaneous, and cards virtual, the handwritten note stands out. It communicates to the recipient extra thoughtfulness and polish.

While your English, History and Science colleagues will likely have little trouble finding sources for "good" content-area projects, it is difficult to find "good" math projects. Sure, Project-Based Learning is great when you can integrate multiple content areas, but even then there are times that you are more focused on one content area than another. Math has proven to be difficult to work with in a Project-Based Learning environment. Never mind the fact that you somehow have to sneak in lots of procedural practice if you want to make sure your students are ready for the big high-stakes exams that come around every Spring time, there just isn't a good way to teach mathematics solely with Project-Based Learning. That being said, it just makes the Project-Based Learning that you can do through mathematics all the more valuable.
Think about it, sure it may be difficult to find a time when students are going to need to know how to factor a polynomial function or a rational function, but it is also difficult to find a time when adults use either of those in their lives on a consistent basis. However, creating equations and setting up constraints and trying to stay within those? Figuring out how much money you'll save my switching from one company to another for your cable/telephone/internet is certainly a real-world scenario. And yes, not every adult would write an equation to solve it, they may just add up the price and the months, but students will certainly find more utility in tackling a problem of this sort than a made-up "real-world" scenario that will almost certainly not happen. Really, who sets up similar right triangles to figure out the distance to a boat in the river when it is traveling 4m/s down stream?

Pinch Pots
Students were given the choice to place their pinch pots in any direction they wanted. Sitting like a bowl, upside down or sideways. They could design any animal or creature they wanted and they could add any colour choices. This was my first time doing clay with the grade 7's, overall it was a good success. However some of the glazes didn't turn out as planned, either not enough coats were put on or they did not have a chance to cool down slow enough.

Even where regular maintenance is undertaken, there are accidents. Doors seem to take the most punishment. This house in the Clevedon area of Glasgow was subject to damage.
Even though it is set back from the road and with a gate, the glass got broken in a few places.
This is a large entry way with a grand hall behind it.
The door of course had a new break and a few others needed attention at the same time.
In addition, the fanlight above the door was rattling, although there were no breaks. This was re-0cemented in situ.
A view of the completed repair from the inside.
This house was built in the period 1870-1890. When compared to the entrance at a house in Bearsden built in the period 1910-1915
[Bearsden ] you can see that exactly the same design was used. This shows the large studios did recycle designs, even though in this case 20-40 years later.

I really like to give wedding gifts, that the couple(at least the bride) will remember who gave them the gift, not just the usual china or crystal. Also not knowing the child, I know nothing of her tastes.This is a picture of a cross-stitch wedding piece that I did for my husband and myself many, many years ago.
I certainly do not have the time to cross-stitch the piece, so I decided to make a word art of it to frame. I started out in Photoshop, and quickly moved over to the Silhouette Studio Designer software, taking advantage of a lot of the Silhouette Online sentiments. I was also able to take advantage of the images, to fill in the holes. I stayed with a black and white motif, then added a double black line bounding the word art, and finally filling a layer underneath with a beautiful and subtle ornate paper that I found on line several years ago. The artist went by the name Pewter 7, but I can't find a link to the web site now. Once I had it all laid out, I simply printed it. There's nothing that says that you just because you cut it in the Silhouette Software, that you have to cut it with the Cameo. It's an 11" x 14" piece, and I love the way it turned out.
I also decided to do a fun piece, so I created a personalized Magnet/White Board with their initial, name and wedding date. It's done in vinyl. This is the first project I've done in vinyl, and there's definitely a trick to it. For starters it helps to have a big piece of transfer paper, instead of 3" strips. Again, I'm really pleased with the way this one turned out too. I just hope the bride and groom like them.

NASA's sun seeking Solar Dynamic Observatory is safely on its way to a geosynchronous orbit of about 22 thousand miles in altitude to do what Sheryl Crow would do – soak up the sun – while it's still free – before it goes out on me…well, I'm not going to quit my day job.
The goal for SDO is to take high resolution images of the sun and measure its magnetic field activity. The hope: it will make it one day possible to predict solar storms that can affect spacecraft, astronauts and can wreak havoc with our blackberries and cellphones here on Earth.

Scott Westerfeld
Known for his science fiction/fantasy novels, Westerfeld won many of both sci-fi and fantasy readers over with the exceptional story of a new kind of vampire in Peeps.
Excerpt from BarnesandNoble.com:
Cal was infected by a parasite that has a truly horrifying effect on its host. Cal himself is a carrier, unchanged by the parasite, but he's infected the girlfriends he's had since Morgan. All three have turned into the ravening ghouls Cal calls Peeps. The rest of us know them as vampires. It's Cal's job to hunt them down before they can create more of their kind. . . .
He has also written other notable books worth reading like the Midnighters Series. This series takes us on a ride into an unknown time called the midnight hour, or the blue time. In the first installment of the Midnighters series we learn about the secret hour which is the hour that normal human beings can not experience. It is at exactly midnight, when time stops, and only those who were born at the stroke of midnight can experience it. A group of only a few teenagers in a town called Bixby try to figure out the extra hour of the day, while also figuring out the dangerous and scary creatures that lurk the night during that special hour.
Excerpt from BarnesandNoble.com:
For one secret hour each night, the town belongs to the dark creatures that haunt the shadows. Only a small group of people know about the secret hour — only they are free to move about the midnight time.
These people call themselves Midnighters. Each one has a different power that is strongest at midnight: Seer, Mindcaster, Acrobat, Polymath. For years the Midnighters and the dark creatures have shared the secret hour, uneasily avoiding one another. All that changes when the new girl with an unmistakable midnight aura appears at Bixby High School.

A Visit with the Pyrs
A volunteer from the North East Pyrenees Rescue came to visit today with her two Pyrs', Emma, a one year old female, and Vasa, a three year old male. Both were beautiful and well behaved. It was quickly apparent that a three year old male was a much better fit for our family than a one year old female. The girls loved them. They were what I expected. If we were to get one, it would be an older male from a rescue. My husband says "No F#@*in way" and "Get an apartment first". I was already contemplating a two bedroom apartment. Decisions, decisions.

So exciting!
Is that GB reading to the dog in the last pic? How sweet.
Maybe it's the angle, but they don't seem to take up too much of the room in that last pic.
And I hear you about the 3-year-old male. I don't know about what Pyrs are like at different ages (I've heard that some giant dog breeds grow for longer and thus are puppies/adolescents for longer periods, but that they also have shorter lives, but I hadn't heard anything about Pyrs in particular), but I know with some other breeds, around 2 or 3 is the age when they finally seem to "settle in" and have more manageable energy/activity needs.
Did your husband get a chance to meet the dogs, or is he just going off the idea of them?

Pyrs are a wonderful choice as companion animals for children. My first pyr was a 4 year old male rescue and he adored all children and other animals. He considered any child part of his flock to protect.
Puppies tend to settle in around 18 months or so.
You do need to brush them every day and you will need a strong vacuum. But the affection and loyalty you'll receive from them is soooooo worth it!

Welcome, Students and Families!
You've found Ms. Gonsalves's High School Literacy Groups webpage!
This term, my literacy groups will be focused on two things:
In my 9th grade ASB language arts class (A12), we will be reading short stories about bullying in schools, discussing what we read as a class, and writing responses to each story.
In my Structured Language Arts course (3rd period), we will be focused on learning about poetry and rhymes! We will work on acrostic and concrete poetry forms, learning about the different spellings of rhyming words, and each student will create a poetry portfolio. We will also be reading poems and sonnets by William Shakespeare, Langston Hughes, and Oregon poets!
If you have any questions, contact me by calling my office phone number below during school hours, or by emailing me:

Welcome to transubstantiation. This is a site dedicated to people who have an unhealthy love of translation or people who are doomed to wander the earth forever shifting from one badly-translated text to another. I suppose this should've been the first post, but who cares. Anyway, the plan is for this site to be a place where translators can exchange views on a number of wierd issue.
Omni urbi and all that rubbish. The fascination for all things foreign is indeed fascinating. I mean not the foreign languages, but the fascination itself. Why are so many people so interested in something which is so completely natural to us, but at the same time something very, very abstract?
I'm not very good at this blog things and I get lost all the time, but if anyone can be bothered to spend the time reading this I'm sure they'll be bored to death.

Well, almost. Leaving tomorrow morning for London for a full week. The last trips to London have been great, but now I'm very tired of playing tour guide and show people the "must" sights. By myself I can do whatever I feel like and find those little gems tourists usually don't find. It's also an excellent way to learn more about the city, a city that never stops to fascinate me
I also plan to go on day trips to Brighton (where I haven't been in 23 years), Cambridge and Winchester. Kew Gardens and Hampton Court Palace are also on my agenda. Of course I'm going to catch up with friends both old and new and hopefully get to eat and drink some really nice things.
It's the 4th year I'm going away by myself for a week. Very empowering and probably in some people's eyes a bit egocentric, but the loner in me find it wonderful.

Red and yellow surf life-saving flags, the lifeguard's rescue surfboard, and a flock of seagulls on the sand.
These are all familiar sights on many Australian beaches and indicate that summer is approaching.
This photo looks across North Cronulla Beach to Cronulla Beach, NSW, Australia.
Cronulla is a popular tourist attraction and attracts many beachgoers from all over Sydney. Cronulla Beach features a long stretch of sand that runs from Boat Harbour to North Cronulla, followed by rock pools and another sandy beach at South Cronulla.
The Cronulla Pavilion and the Cronulla Lifesaving Club are two prominent buildings located close to the sand. Cronulla Park sits behind the beach. The Cronulla Rock Pools are between Cronulla Beach and North Cronulla beach.

One of the key goals of iCREDITS is to increase the diversity of trained scientists and engineers in intelligent smart grid technologies. We plan to do so by creating recruitment, engagement, and training solutions, sensitive to diversity in ethnicity, culture and academic background, and targeting traditionally underrepresented groups—especially Hispanics and women.
Applications for our CS Adventures 2018 summer camp will open soon! See our summer camp page for more details.
NMSU iCREDITS Summer Camps are tailored to achieve four major goals:
1) Build community among students through computing;
2) Increase student's interest in computing;
3) Gain knowledge and exposure to introductory programming; &
4) Drastically increase all students' confidence in Computer Science.
Each goal is achieved through specific sets of activities implemented in the summer camp. Participants are exposed to smart grid technologies and computational thinking through a variety of interactive software tools. Last summer, the tools include Parallax Boe-Bots, Arduino Solar Tracker, Solar Panel Car with Arduino, and App Inventor.
Also, if you would like to have us visit your school, we would love to hear from you at email@example.com.

Because of Survivor Global show it earlier than Fox*

Because of Survivor Global show it earlier than Fox*
The episode could have use better writting, but the concept is nice and its nice to see Stan in a position where he's actually more moral than the other characters for once
3,5-4 on 5
Pretty forgettable episode, a bit disappointing after such a generally strong season. Absolutely no Steve in this episode either, which was odd.
Stan's overly moral attitude caught me off guard and seemed out of character. He's had no problem taking advantage of his CIA status in the past, and taking his neighbors hostage, but tonight that wasn't the case somehow. Weird...
I can't really enjoy this show very much because I always find the humor to be so forced. What American Dad does well is make some pretty compelling and interesting storylines, but I've never seen an episode that is particularly hilarious or has great characterizations. Tonight's was no exception.
I thought the episode had a lots of potential plot A wise and was some what interesting, but plot B got boring after Roger met Tyler. The did however like ending and some of the gags were good. 3/5
Thanks for the awesome times King of the Hill!
I agree with you guys...
Interesting story, and nice and somewhat suprising for Stan to be the character with morals, however, there weren't many laughs to be had, though what was there was decent. But what happened with the ending? How did he escape? What happened with the three hostages? I feel cheated! I hate when shows don't bother to write a decent ending. The side story was also a bit boring.
What I like most about American Dad is that it often has decent stories, and I like that they often put the story first and humor second... but unfortunately I feel that the show rarely lives up to it's full potential... however its still almost consistantly better than new Simpsons and Family Guy.
I honestly thought it was the best episode out of the whole Sunday night block. I laughed like I did when I first saw Family Guy. Definitely solid in laughs, storyline had many funny twists, and I just loved the humor so much.
4/5 for me..
I am your big brother
Not so laugh filled but I couldn't stop watching,.. and that earned it high points with me. 4/5
so yeah this is one of the wackiest eps of the show. criminally underrated and one of my personal favorites. 5/5.
Classic episode, 5/5. Stan at his most likable and some really fantastic Roger material.
This is a great episode! I thought Stan and his CIA buddies were pure gold, like the Dick jokes, taking the dog back, and the "all you do is piss and moan and bitch at us" line. Hayley's and Roger's side plot was great too..."no babies for Roger." Haha.
5/5 One of my favorites!
Remember kids, Kariba is cool!
