Quick update, have to say were stating to see how this will be going down.
Ok, the beta changes today. Note there are more changes for holy and ret, I've croped them due to this being a prot post.
Current paladin Tree (Press Ctrl + F5 if it shows the old tree)
- Divine Plea is now trained at level 44, down from 58. Now reduces the amount healed by all your healing spells.
- Holy Wrath is now trained at level 28, down from 50.
- Seal of the Pure is now named Seal of Insight.
- Hand of Protection is now trained at level 18. Down from 42.
- Divine Protection now reduces all damage taken by 20% for 10 sec. (Down from 50% for 12 sec) Cooldown lowered from 5 min to 1 min. Spells restrictions (Divine Shield/Divine Protection/Hand of Protection/Avenging Wrath) removed.
- Devotion Aura is now trained at level 18, down from level 22.
- Blessing of Kings is now trained at level 22, up from 18.
- Hammer of the Righteous now causes 160% weapon damage as holy damage. (Old – 3 times your main hand damage per second as Holy damage.)
- Shield of the Templar has been revamped – Reduces the cooldown of Avenger's Shield by 2/4 sec, Guardian of Ancient Kings by 10/20 min, and increases the amount absorbed by your Sacred Shield by 10/20%.
- Holy Shield now Holy Shield – Consumes Holy Power to grant 5% block per stack of Holy Power and deals 97.8 Holy damage for every attack blocked. Lasts 15 sec. / 10% of base mana, Instant cast
- Sacred Duty has been revamped – Increases the critical strike chance of your Hammer of the Righteous by 5/10%. In addition, your Hammer of the Righteous critical strikes have a 50/100% chance of making your next Judgement a critical strike. /
- Grand Crusader – When your Crusader Strike deals damage, it has a 10/20% chance of refreshing the cooldown on your next Holy Wrath.
- Ardent Defender is now a Tier 7 talent (Up from Tier 4). Cooldown increased from 2 to 3 min.
- Judgements of the Wise is now a primary skill.
- Inquisition is now Exclusive with Holy Shield.
- Seal of Vengeance is now named Seal of Truth and its Holy Vengeance renamed to Censure.
- Improved Judgement no longer decreases the cooldown of Judgement.
Heres a few facts not covored here.
- Sheild of Righteousness has been removed.
- Judgement has a baseline 8 second cooldown.
- Hammer of the Rightouse has an 8 second cooldown.
- The holy power heal is obtainable by prot.
- Consecration has no cooldown.
- Crusader Strike has no cooldown, this IS a bug. Been fixed.
- Holy Wrath now hits all classes of enemy and has a baseline 15 second cooldown. The stun remains for undead and demons only.
- Guardian of Ancient Kings will have a 5 minute cooldown.
- Blinding shield seems to have died a dead.
- Divine protection no longer causes Forberance. Now causes Avenging wrath to gain a 1 minute cooldown if it's either off cooldown or below 1 minute cooldown.
- Cooldown..
Ok, I'll start with a few notes from what i feel is happening now.
Firstly Imp judgement is now unneeded, the cooldown being lowered as it is, and the fact it seems are are other, better ways of threat/damage building, or at least i think there will, it seems finaly we have points to play with, about 10 or so, I've filled a build with the "must have" talents, and even 3 of these are "free" to spend in other places.
SoR being gone, this will be a bug, either that or they are planning it to be replaced with crusader strike, which wont be too much of a problem, I can't see how shield slam would scale at all with block value being removed.
I can see what they are doing with Holy shield and Inquisition we're going to have to really pay attention to what's needed at this point in time, the changes to DP and AW proving this also, Id much MUCH prefer to see a 30 second SW and a new threat based move to use our HP on, but I guess this is one thing as well. DPs new form is fantastic, we now have 3 active cooldowns, 4 if you count Divine guardian. This will help us really manage our cools and use them more often, saving Argent Defender for the now shield walling ohshit moments.
My main concern at the moment is my Key space, we are gaining quite a few new ability's and not losing as many as I'd like. I'm slightly worried this might cause me to need to buy one of the gaudy and bad Naga mouse things, but I will have to see how it goes, but considering we currently have 4 shield wall cooldowns as a posed to the 2 we currently have, I can see this being an issue.
Rotation, Maintankadin is going into over time on the Replacement to the 69 rotation at the moment. To quote PsiVen
Grand Crusader procs may disrupt the ordering but should only replace the weakest ability in the cycle, probably HotR. However, we have lost the simplicity of 969 and finally have an interesting rotation with priority queues that aren't set in stone.
TL;DR: It's gotten a lot more complex now, but we're still slaves to CS on cooldown and HS refresh.
But the current ideas and theory is hard to judge what with SoR being for the time, dead. my current, 100% bs and in my head throey is that we have to adopt 2 single target rotations, one prioritising judgement for mana defishent fights, and the other, for pure threat, making Hotr and the like more important, We'll have to play it by ear, or just let the wonderful PsiVen and theckhd Bringer of Numbers and Pounding Headaches, do the maths for us. The Wonderful bastards they are.
Im planning a large page explaning the changes, but with them changing day to day ill hold off till they settle down a bit.
Oh and the judgement on SEAL OF TRUTH is Censure not Censor which is a massive, massive shame as the irony would have been wonderful.

When news of the NFL's fine of $50,000 for "refusal to cooperate" in the case of lewd text messages allegedly sent by future NFL Hall of Fame Quarterback Brett Favre, media coverage was predictably swift and salacious.
But when the Atlanta Journal-Constitution posted the story to its website at first the headline read, "Favre fined for sexting."
Wait. What? Really? "Favre fined for sexting?"
Because this was all together misleading and inaccurate I tagged the AJC in my Twitter feed suggesting they correct it. Minutes later the headline read, "Favre fined 'over' sexting."
Ummm, no. That's still not right, and borderline libelous.
One more direct message exchange with the staffer on duty for @AJC and minutes later the headline read, "NFL fines Favre in sexting probe."
Oh good: corrected by putting "sexting" and "probe" together. Well done.
Perhaps even more egregious is the anti-City of Atlanta slant to which the AJC has turned its "news coverage" in an effort to attract more suburban readers. Creative Loafing (@cl_atlanta) rightly exposed that in some detail. http://bit.ly/gEQuMM
Hell, the AJC even vacated their city center offices on Marietta Street for suburban digs on the filthy congested north end of the Interstate 285 perimeter.
Is this really what you think your high-growth OTP target audience is after AJC? Can you not aspire to something, ummm, well… better?
In the toxic TMZ era in which we live, keeping headlines salacious is beneficial to content providers. I get that. The more click-throughs, page hits, shares, etc., the more a media outlet can charge its online advertisers; a necessary evil as newspapers in particular struggle to monetize their content in a time in which hard copy circulation remains weak at best.
But you're taking the easy way out, dear AJC. Side eye in your direction. Correction: this is a downright nasty glare.
In an effort to give credit where it's due there are several hard-working, and almost certainly underpaid, reporters at the AJC that provide valuable content I happily consume: SOME breaking news, Falcons, Braves and more. The team of staffers charged with maintenance of the AJC's Twitter feed (@ajc) is quite responsive, a characteristic that matches perfectly with the high value of audience engagement and online community building.
I suppose then what I'm asking the AJC for is this. As our region's flagship print and online news provider with a long and noble history, could you please bump it up a notch or two in the class department? Because if you're going to insist on shoehorning "sexting" into headlines no matter what, and if you're going to extricate your headquarters from the city that bears your banner's name, I've never been prouder to be a part of the audience that is trying to find other sources for local news.

This morning Luvy and I spent a short but sweet time with our toes in the sand. I am missing the beach already.
In case you all were wondering which beach we were at, we were in Hilton Head. 🙂
For some level of privacy (and safety), I like to keep some things as secretive as I can.
However, I am happy to say that Luvy and I are in Savannah, GA now with his brother, Travis and his wife Stacy. It is so nice seeing them again!!! It has been way too long.
Travis and Stacy recently moved here from- get this- Fargo, North Dakota!! Just a wee bit of a difference. Stacy is a born and bred northern plains gal, so she is having some trouble adjusting to the humidity and heat.
They both have their PhD's in mathematics, and are college professors. They both accepted positions at Armstrong State Atlantic University here in Savannah.
They gave us a campus tour. It was a very pretty campus filled with lots of exotic plants.
Plus, Travis took us and showed us their office. It is technically Travis's office, but he shares with Stacy. 🙂
After our tour, they took us to a Thai place called the King and I. It was delicious!!! They made my meal without any oil. I got Green Curry with Tofu. It was hot and spicy, but very soothing with the coconut milk. I ate the entire bowl!
I didn't get any pictures with the meal, because we were enjoying each other so much. However, none of us were displeased with our food. It was delicious!!!
We went and picked up Rocky, Travis and Stacy's dog, to take him on a walk.
He is the sweetest and most well behaved dog I have ever seen. I am a cat person, but I like Rocky.
We weren't planning on going into downtown since it was a Saturday night, but we decided to take a walk at Forsyth Park. It took Luvy and I back to our honeymoon days. 🙂
We actually stayed in Downtown Savannah for 2 nights of our honeymoon. We stayed a the Hamilton Turner Inn while we were there. It is the cutest bed and breakfast.
It was so nice to see this again.
I'm off to enjoy the family. Long drive back to the hills tomorrow!
I'm not ready for vacation to be over!!! 😦

I'm working on another pair of the sunny side up socks from Alt Fiber. I'm using a purple hand-dyed yarn from my bautiful friend Martha, and I have to say, I'm quite enjoying the knitting process. When I designed them, time was definitely a factor and even though I enjoyed the process, I was too busy on a deadline to notice just how much fun they are to knit. Other than a very wonky start this time, I'm having a blast! A toe-up sock is a wonderful thing, however, starting out on dpn's is a bit of a tactical nightmare. Do you know where I put my US1 16″ circs? I wish I did! So I gamely used dpn's and I think if I had about three more hands, it would have been fine, but it sure felt a little clumsy until I got going
Now though, I'm loving the way the cables flow into the lace, the way the increase at the back is so seamless. And I'm thoroughly thrilled with Martha's yarn – I've seen her dye techniques, and am a big fan! Here's an original piccy of the socks, I'll post a pic of the new pair later today!

Binary option auto-trading has been all the rage for a good few years now. The simple nature of the binary option proposition has made it the perfect target for auto trading and robot traders. After all, the decision boils down to a simple Yes/No – or rather Up/Down – one. If that's not an open invitation to automation, nothing is. The question is how to consistently profit from a binary option robot.
The problem with that sort of thinking is though that while the actual mechanism behind binary option trading is indeed very simple, the analytic process which is absolutely necessary for profitable long-term trading, is everything but. It can in fact be almost infinitely complicated.
Just trading on a coin-toss is by no means a profitable – or even break-even – approach. The payout rates offered by most brokers cover the 70-90% range (some may even fall below that), so if you coin-toss with those odds, you're essentially guaranteeing your failure. With that in mind, your binary option robot needs to be able to win a rather large majority of its trades, just to break even. A flesh and blood trader accomplishes this through thorough technical analysis, coupled with a good understanding of the fundamentals.
Binary option robots and technical analysis
Technical analysis is wonderfully suited for automation. It's all based on various mathematical concepts and artifices, meant to identify impending price-action reversals, which can then be exploited through the proper binary trades. Every binary option robot and auto trader is based on technical analysis alone. Such robots are comprised of three modules or components. One of these handles the generating of trading signals. The other actually applies trades to the resulting signals, while the third one handles capital management. Needless to say, all three modules need to be top-notch for the robot to be able to do what it's supposed to, and even so, it may just not be enough.
There's the slight issue of fundamental analysis, you see…trading robots simply cannot handle that in any shape or form. While for a human trader, trading the fundamentals (or "trading the news" as it's more widely known), is one of the simplest approaches to binary option trading, a robot cannot handle it. Fundamental analysis is not an exact science, therefore it cannot be automated. Conceivably, there might be a way to do it, through the use of cutting-edge AI, but that's much more than any trading robot creator has been able to work with thus far. There are auto trading scams out there which try to convince traders that they're using an intricate system based on AI and some other far-fetched concept, like bare metal servers and optical data transmission, but these are just scams. What they really have under the hood is a combination of technical analysis indicators and that's about it. That's the reason why they will inevitably always lose whatever money you allow them to trade with. One can't just flip an auto-trading switch and let the robot have at it. The world doesn't work that way.
How do actual trading robots work?
Trading robots need a lot of tinkering, fine-tuning and back-testing. They need almost constant attention and care.
As said above, they're made up of three modules. The first of these generates trading signals, through a combination of technical analysis indicators. These indicators find trading opportunities and then re-verify them a few times, to make sure they are indeed strong signals. The module handling the actual trading then applies a number of filters on top of these signals, filters which contain variables adjusted directly by the trader. How these variables are set and how the signal-generating module works, depends a lot on the type of traded asset, the trade types used etc. Every time these variables are tinkered with, it is recommended that the user run a thorough testing on historical data, to make sure that the changes don't upset the abilities of the robot.
The third module is the capital management one. This is the module that tells the robot how much to invest and how to generally handle the funds. One can set his/her robot to apply the martingale system to trading, to reinvest the profits or to use a number of other such money-management methods. These methods need to be experimented with as well.
How do you operate a profitable binary option robot?
Even if you get all the above described variables right, you're still not guaranteed success. The dreaded fundamentals can always induce unexpected market volatility and thus they can completely turn your robot upside down.
What experienced traders do, is they set up their robots and then keep an eye on the fundamentals. As soon as they sense increased volatility ahead, they turn off their robots and maybe trade the variance by hand. During periods of high volatility, they always keep their binary robots turned off and only turn them on when the markets sort of do as they're expected.
A word of caution: there are scores of scams out there based on various binary option robots. Know what such robots are really capable of and do not fall for anything that looks too good to be true.

International attention has shifted from the Wikileaks disclosures to the behaviour of it's self-anointed leader - Julian ASSANGE - who has been charged with rape in Sweden (but is being held in Britain). The attention is becoming less salacious and more perplexing as it casts ASSANGE in a rather odd light as it highlights his questionable judgement (having sex with 2 feminists? - who are good friends? - and who discover their unexpected menage-a-trois in a cluckfest the next day? - come-on! It's too poetic for mere justice!)
Although it may seem unlikely and the CIA involvement has been rejected , I believe it is entirely possible that the whole thing is an elaborate counter-espionage operation by some bored Arabic intelligence team in order to cause dissent among America's allies.
But the whole incident is working to undermine ASSANGE's credibility.
[Update: Here is a slightly different viewpoint]

Today, I met a person who said he didn't own a TV. He relied on the web for his news and public establishments when watching a game. And does he watch episodes through players like Hulu, I asked. Not really, was his reply.
I happened to watch a :30 Rock episode recently on Hulu, and while I like the quality of the video, I missed the intimacy of watching on a bigger screen TV. if I could have watched the same video on VOD, I would prefer that format. But I wonder if I am unique in my preferences. And until the big screen TV is simply a monitor for streams from the computer, how I differentiate the two.
I see Hulu and You Tube as a secondary way to stay close to my favorite shows. There value to promote the brand, not replace. It keeps you close to the show until the next episode is ready to air and lets funny, or interesting, water cooler moments be shared across the web.
Let's get this writers strike settled, let's get everyone back to work, and let's put on great content.

Changing trends in the Indian e-Retail Fashion Industry
When fashion gets combined with technology, the customer is the one who gets benefit-ted the most. With an option to choose from offline to online retailers, the customer is getting spoiled by choices day by day!! The fashion e-retail market in India is expected to touch US$35 billion by year 2020. Indian Fashion Industry is getting a boost due to the entrance of new players in the markets every now and then.
Myntra and Jabong have been the pioneers of the fashion space online. They faced hurdles initially as people were reluctant to make apparel purchases online but with time, people realized the importance of online fashion market. Off course, factors like deep discounts, easy exchange, cash on delivery etc have played a major role for changing the trend but now people also want to take advantage of options; they can make online purchases from the comfort of their home or office or even while travelling, to place an order for a dress, or an accessory, or shoes or even lingerie.
In fact, Fashion e-retail market is not only limited to purchases now; the latest trend involves renting a dress from the website for a particular occasion, if you don't want to spend money making the actual purchase. Well, this concept is comparatively new in the online fashion space but it's gaining momentum.
Let's go through some fashion e-retail startups that are specializing in a particular aspect and creating a niche for themselves:
- Flyrobe – Mumbai based online rental startup offering ethnic and western outfits for rent. Currently, operating in Mumbai, New Delhi and Ahmedabad only, they deliver your desired outfit at your doorstep within 3 hours of the order and pick it up after 3 days.
- PostFold – PostFold, a Gurgaon based startup, offers apparel which you can wear both to work and after-work parties at really affordable prices by eliminating the middlemen from each step of the product development and integrating latest designs in the garment. PostFold claims that they came with a business model where they would manufacture and style apparel using high quality fabrics and keep the fixed costs low and curate clothes with experienced stylists to get "Desk to Dinner" apparels.
- Wooplr – Started off as a place for sharing fashion photographs, this Bangalore- based startup, tells you what's trending around you and gives you a platform to share your style statements. So, when its users share their looks in pictures in various outfits, it is showcased to others with details of where to buy – offline or online. Wooplr also sells affordable apparel from the same platform.
- Melorra – As per this Bangalore-based online, fine jewelry brand, its designs are inspired by those trending on the global runway. Its Stylefeed section introduces you to the latest trends in fashion, and the jewelry that goes with them.
- Styletag – It is an online shopping destination that gives you instant access to leading Indian designers and designer brands. So, if you are looking for a designer curated bag or dress whether ethnic or western, then this is the place to be.
- Limeroad – Limeroad's scrapbook feature, lets its users design and display their style and fashion in a scrapbook, which is then featured on the website. With the sale of the scrapbook look, the users earn a certain percentage of the sale amount.

We are standing on the platform waiting for the train. When it comes, the doors open and it's a crapshoot with all of us tumbling into the car like dice. It's late and we are all angling for a seat. I don't want the small disgrace of hustling and jockeying, I'll risk not getting to sit for this ride.
One long bench has one end open and there are three of us left so we slot in. I lose out, I get the least desirable seat, next to the listing hunched man. My other two companions have taken full advantage of sitting first, taking up extravagant amounts of real estate, forcing me right next him.
I take him in with a sideways eye. He is rocking a little, caressing the neck of the bottle between his thighs, sliding the black plastic bodega bag over the screw threads, crinkling. I am trying to be subtle, but he is watching me too. He catches my eye and turns towards me, turns his full face to me.
It doesn't feel confrontational, his face is wide and guileless as a baby's. His mouth is working, he is trying to say something. Through the crash of my headphones I hear "I hate you."
That doesn't match the expression on his face. And maybe because I've just come from teaching a room full of social workers, or maybe because I am looking for a scrap of grace, or maybe because I am simply curious, I make my eyes wide, turn my full face to him in innocence and ask "You hate me?"
His mouth starts to work again, he is making noises in response. He says it over and over, it getting a bit clearer each time, until I understand. He is saying "Behave. Behave. Behave. Behave." And there I see the monsters he keeps on a leash, the wind howling under his skin, the slice of needles in his head.
I could move away, jump up and go to the other side of the train. The people across the way are watching us, uncomfortable, edgy. But I don't want to leave him. I don't want to shame him, reject him, dishonor him and his attempt to simply be. I smile my brightest, most encouraging smile and say "That's good." And we both turn back into ourselves.
It's a long trip, and later he will fall asleep, the grip on the bottle loosening, it falling to the floor and spilling its pungent contents. The rocking of the train, his muscles relaxing will make him occasionally fall against my shoulder before he jerks upright. I don't flinch when this happens, I let it, let him rest his head on me, that is what I can give him, if only for a moment.

Representative Cyndi Stevenson reported to Historic City News that she has filed legislation that will benefit Florida craft distilleries, like St. Augustine Distillery LLC, by reducing what she calls "outdated regulations".
House Bill 141, Stevenson's companion bill to Senate Bill 166, seeks to make these distilleries more profitable for operators like Phil McDaniel.
"This bill frees craft distilleries from unnecessary regulations and allows them to continue to grow," Representative Stevenson said. "Already we see the potential of craft distilleries in Florida's economy. They not only create good jobs, but also support Florida's farmers and invigorate historic districts."
Stevenson identified the major provisions of House Bill 141:
- A reduction in the annual license fee for craft distilleries
- Removal of individual container limits on sales in on-site gift shops
- An increase from 75,000 to 250,000 gallons in annual production limits
Stevenson said she looks forward to working with Senator Steube on this bill because it will provide "a more level playing field" for craft distilleries to compete with craft breweries.

At least nine people were killed Saturday after flash flooding swept through Tonto National Forest in Arizona, authorities said.
Two people are still missing but that number may increase, deputies said on Sunday as the extent of the damage became more clear. The station also posted raw video of a helicopter rescue operation in the area showing muddy water cascading over rock. "They heard a roar, and it was on top of them", Water Wheel Fire and Medical District Fire Chief Ron Sattelmaier said.
"The clouds over on the other side of the mountain can be dumping buckets, and all of a sudden there's a wall of water coming through that just wipes out everything in its path", said Stevens, who has lived in the area for 20 years.
At 3:19 p.m., the Gila County Sheriff's Department received a 911 call that multiple people were reported missing after water swept through the area, the department said in a statement.
However, it had not been raining in the area where people were swimming.

The flash-flooding hit Saturday afternoon at Cold Springs canyon, about 100 northeast of Phoenix, and some people were washed several miles downstream.

"In addition to the state of Arizona providing full air support, we will continue to assist in all ways possible", Ducey said. He and Alexander were hiking with friends when they were caught up in the flash flood near Payson.
Ellison Creek flooded the narrow canyon where the family members were swimming.
"This is monsoon season, and we get a lot of local rain", Hornung told The News. A flash food warning was issued but without a radio, the group would not have known.
"Normally it's just a trickle of a creek, but during the monsoon season it can go from a foot deep to 10 feet deep in a matter of minutes", he said.

just like a meadow of scentless sea mayweeds facing the sky!
So many colours...Pristine magic!
Even painters could take our world for a palette in Panavision!
And when one walks on this sandbridge at St Ninian's, we lose our feet deep inside blue...
Life continues its festival!
Monsieur Giono called it "le chant du monde" (worldsong) - here, on the island this song becomes a symphony.
This world anchors, moors around us; the island turns a honeypot.
Then, back to blue.
This shade of blue darkens slightly for a short while...
As our world rotates closest to the sun, shades and hues stick to dreamers' dreams and through the lens!
Back to petals...
Like ballerinas in the breeze or summer rain. Shameless yellow of the iris; scented lilac of sea rocket...
Van Gogh would be dazzled by the game of light on the island!
Uplifting, ascending, overwhelming sense of joy as Arcania unveils itself in sheer splendour.

Here it is! And I can hardly contain my excitement! What started off as an idle thought, grew into a side-project, then developed into a fully fledged obsession, will soon become a reality. Launch day is fast approaching. Aaargh!
I've spent my career in the publishing industry as a writer, copyeditor and editorial project manager, submissions reader and reviewer. I've worked for major trade and academic publishers such as Berlitz, Routledge and Wiley-Blackwell, plus major international organizations in the not-for-profit sector. I've helped literally thousands of authors on many thousands of books – books of all kinds, from travel guides to children's picture books to cutting-edge academic scholarship.
The ten top tips in Copyediting for Indie Authors are among those I've used in my professional career to make thousands of books the best they can be. The difference is that instead of spending a lot of money on copyeditors who may not be right for your book, you can do these things yourself, right now, for free.
Over the past six months or so, I have had to refuse a great many requests for book reviews for one reason or another. Sometimes the book is not the sort of book I like to review; sometimes I don't feel qualified to review a particular book.
However, the main reason I've found myself saying no to reviews is because the published book is not in good shape and contains lots of avoidable errors. I've written this short guide to provide some basic tips for improving the editorial presentation of books. It addresses some of the simple problems that put off potential readers and reviewers. In my experience, I know that if I see one or two of these errors on the opening page of a book, I simply won't review it. I've copyedited hundreds of books in my time, so I suppose I have come to recognize many of the danger signs.
Copyediting for Indie Authors includes a link to two more free tips, plus a handy copyediting checklist. It will be available as an ebook only on Amazon.
Now we're good to go!

Decorating my Christmas Tree every year is one of my favorite things to do. Every year our family goes to a U-Cut and finds a Noble Fir. I like the space in-between the branches so the ornaments can hang and be seen!
I remember the days when the kids helped--and hung their own ornaments on the tree. It was a great family experience to be treasured forever. But, now, I decorate my tree with lots of glitz and fun--and a different color theme each year. Here are my themes:
Gold, Burgundy and Glass
Greens, Champagne, Wood, Pears and Partridges (Pears and Partridges from my mom)
Silver, Pink, Purples and Blues (my grandma's ornaments--she loved pink!)
AND--this year--Reds, Silver and Glass
What about you? How do you like to decorate your tree?? Enjoy!
Aloha, and Mahalo for visiting!

I was cooking dinner last night and got really bored. I decided to play puppy paparazzi.
Kane, my golden retriever, is the goofiest, sweetest, fetchinest, twitchiest dog I have ever seen in my life. He especially loves twitching on the couch…but last night, he took advantage of our naked bed. You don't need sound, but if you don't have it, at the end I ask him what he is doing. He seems to be just as confused as I am.
Turns out, he was letting off some steam. He and Duke had a HUGE argument over the placement of the cat food bowl. After his twitching session, Kane called Duke in for a heart-to-heart. It didn't end well...
Duke did not like what Kane had to say, and made fun of Kane with a traditional tongue sticking out face.
Kane was so upset with Duke's reaction to his opinion, he immediately gathered his closest friends. They went to the couch and held a pre-intervention for Duke for his assholeness.
The moment of truth...THE INTERVENTION...WILL Duke get help? It seems he did not like the idea very much.
Kane is left to wallow in his own misery, wondering what he could have done.
Ultimately, Kane and Duke make up, but only on the grounds that Duke goes to anger management. He lets Duke stay in the house and they live happily ever after.
The End.

James Ward-Prowse believes tonight's clash with Italy Under-21s will be an ideal start to England Under-21s' build-up to next summer's European Championship finals.
The Young Lions sailed through their qualifying campaign for the 2017 tournament, which will be held in Poland, and now begin their preparations with a mouthwatering friendly at St Mary's tonight (kick-off 7.45pm).
Ward-Prowse, who captained England to victory in the Toulon Tournament last summer, believes Italy will pose a fantastic test.
"We've had a real good qualifying campaign, and the preparation starts now for what's going to be a tough summer," said the midfielder, who is joined in the squad by Saints teammates Nathan Redmond and Jack Stephens.
"We're all looking forward to facing a tough Italy side and making sure that we're ready, and hopefully we can get a few goals as well.
"I think the mentality has got to be that we've got to improve, that we're not satisfied with the way that we performed in the qualifiers, and we want to kick on from there.
"We want to make sure we're even better and even more prepared for the tough games to come."
Tickets for tonight's match are still available and can be purchased online by clicking here.

I have a new decorating project obsession. It started with a Google image search for Darcy Miller's wedding scrapbook. I have been working on my own wedding scrapbook (2 plus years later) in a similar format to hers. Darcy's scrapbook is not your typical scrapbook, it was more like a memory book with inspiration photos, mementos from planning and photos from the wedding.
Darcy's Scrapbook via - The Wedding Library.
This is my scrapbook in progress. I only have a few pages done since I just got rights to our photos this past fall.
So that search brought me to Darcy's website with her adorable illustrations, background information on her scrapbook and her exhibit "Family" at Partners and Spade. The exhibit was so amazing. Just like the weddings in MS Weddings, every detail was thought of, but the different methods she showcased photos from and mementos from over the years is brilliant. Not only did the exhibit inspire me for my wedding scrapbook, but I also plan to recreate this wall in our house.
It will be fun to gather all the images and mementos to showcase, but also for friends and family visiting to see all the great memories showcased. I plan to put this wall in the seating area of our kitchen. We currently have a large mirror there, however with baby proofing not thinking a heavy mirror resting on the floor is a good idea. This will be a long project since I need to locate frames, images and keepsakes and build overtime, but I think will be a great project for 2010.
You can see and read a lot more by Darcy's exhbit via the following links:

Last week I did put in an order for my linen thread (for those who wanted to piggy-back, I didn't have enough room on my credit card for anything more once we put together our own order - maybe next time). It should hopefully arrive sometime this week so I can get started on assembly.
This weekend I spent a bit of time down in the basement cutting out some of the pieces for the stick-purse though. I have to say, I'm concerned the leather isn't going to work. I bought the thinnest stuff I could find, 2 oz goat, but handling it as I was cutting it, I have a feeling it will still be too stiff for the pouch body and the pouchlet.
The original purse at the Fries Museum was actually made of chamois leather, which is an oil tanning method different from veg tan. Here's some information on the different tanning methods: http://www.personal.utulsa.edu/~marc-carlson/leather/pl.html
I think I'm going to put a hold on cutting all of the parts out and just cut out one piece of each pouch piece. Once the thread comes in, I'll assemble a single pouch to see how it looks. If it doesn't work I'll need to figure out an alternative.
So what are my alternatives:
- According to the link above, buckskin and brain/deer tanned leather are also period and are essentially an oil tannage (similar to chamois), so that could be an alternative. I know Zeli's carries it, but whether it is true brain tanned leather or just chrome tanned made to look like it is another question.
- I could use my chrome tan pig skin that I have been using for pouches. It's light and flexible and would work really well (its actually what I used for my mock-up). If I can demonstrate that the actual period materials are not reasonably available and I knowingly made the substitution for the closest modern equivalent I could find, it should be OK.
The one concern I have is that I don't think my period dyes will work on either of these leathers. It certainly won't work on the chrome tan. In theory though, the leather on the handle would have needed to be a bit stiffer to weave it properly, so I could use my veg tan for that component and dye it as I originally planned.
More to come I'm sure in the next few weeks.

Ok, I pretty much suck at blogging. I got intimidated. I kept feeling like nothing was good enough to post about. Or it was too personal. But I give up on that. I think I am just gunna journal about whatever I am thinking about.
Today? Well .. I.. oh man where do I start?
I have been trying to get pregnant with #2 since Aug 2009. 18 months. In that time I have lost 2 and have had countless BFN's (Big Fat Negative as in pregnancy tests) Maybe I need a glossary? Anyway, I have been seeing an RE starting after my first loss - maybe around June/July 2010. I have been doing non-stop treatments and surgeries and meds.. and well today.... Today I am pregnant!
I actually found out on 2/18/11 and have been having bloodwork to confirm everything was going well. Today I had my first ultrasound. I was so nervous she was gunna give me bad news I could barely breathe. My hubby teased about me having no patience...
Well, I am gunna need to find some because we saw a flashing, beating heart!! In fact not only did we see that - but we also saw 2 more yolk sacs! Yes, that's right. Triplets!!! OMG Triplets!!!
so. currently. right now. today. i am pregnant with triplets!!!!!!!!!!
Baby C had a heartbeat already and we heard it!! It was so cute! Baby A was measuring a day behind (she said that's ok) and had a sac and fetus but no HB yet (normal this early) baby B had a sac and something in there but it wasnt a fetus yet, no HB...... so she is the most worried about that one.

However, I was visiting the new Surrey library and they had a copy just sitting there on the shelf waiting for me, how could I resist? I devoured this book up in just over an afternoon, these books are such a guilty pleasure for me. If only all books were this quick to read I would have a way higher number on my count by now.

Our backyard was in some real need of special attention. Without realizing it, we hadn't picked up our yard in a long.long time. This is what I raked up Saturday. You are seeing that right, the piles are mostly made up of huge ginormous tumbleweeds. How did we get tumble weeds in our backyard when we have a fence? I thought tumbleweeds only "grew" in the country! Wikipedia says tumbleweeds form in the desert. Yep our backyard is basically a desert so that makes sense. I am not kidding, we probably have 10 large trash bags full of backyard shiznaz.
|Pile 1
|Pile 2
Any ideas on what we should do with our backyard? We have 2 dogs that love to run and play
Preston is voting for fake grass. I cringe inside.
|This is what I imagine.
I just read that fake grass contains varying amounts of lead, which gives off a smell and is obviously extremely hazardous for you. It also gets hotter than regular grass and can be irritating to the skin. Okay, who in their right mind would put fake grass in their backyard?!? And how does fake grass work with dogs?? Thoughts?

A fantastic panel of health experts who focus on a variety of issues facing dancers: Emily Cook Harrison, RD, discussing nutrition and body image, Dr. Frank Sinkoe, podiatrist and Amanda Blackmon, PT, DPT, OCS, discussing injury prevention and recovery. We haven't gotten the kind of funding that makes something like DanceUK's Healthier Dancer Programme possible, but we can at least discuss the resources that are available and if there are ways to promote dancer health as a community.
Hope you can make it and please tell your friends!

Thursday we went to the train museum. Max was in heaven. Dad surprised us with his vast knowledge of railroad songs, though I couldn't help myself from pointing out that "I'm Leaving on a Jet Train" probably doesn't count.
The train museum was actually surprisingly good -- for Max. He basically had free reign to run around a bunch of old trains: a kid's dream. One of the museum employees even took Max back to meet Thomas the Train and Max loved sitting in Thomas so much that he even let the guy take a picture with him, but Max was clearly out of his comfort zone (see picture).
Another highlight to the museum was the train ride around the grounds. I believe dad was in the middle of "Chattanaga Choo-Choo" is this photo.
Max was a dream all day long. At dinner, Abram whispered to him, "Go give Grandma hugs." So he crept over and when he hugged her she started shouting, yelling, and generally making a big deal of it. He got a kick out of it and kept coming back for more. After a few hug attacks, Abram told Max to go hug Grandma again. But instead, Max pointed to dad and shouted, "No! I go hug that guy!"
And to top it all off, Dad, who was sure to win scrabble, lost his lead with about 3 rounds to go to Abram with "Jeez" on a triple word score. Ouch.
Mom – 1, Dad – 0, Abram -1, Kristin – 1

'Mean Girls 2' starring Meaghan Jette Martin, Jennifer Stone, Maiara Walsh & Nicole Anderson is being made for television. According to MTV, it will likely premiere on ABC Family in 2011. 'This is a good chance for the actresses in..
..this film to break out from their secondary Disney Channel roles and be known on a more teenage girl-oriented network. It is also good news for the 'Mean Moms' film, which is a sequel of sorts to 'Mean Girls' as well, because that means it won't be seeing any box office competition from the made-for-TV sequel.

Cellvis: high resolution imaging toolsets for biomedical research.
|Cover slip
|Thickness (mm)
|Cover glass
|Cover glass
|Cover glass
|High peformance cover glass
|Cover glass with a 20x26 Grid
For confocal microscopy, it is recommended to use #1.5H or #1.5 cover glass
Spectral Transmittance of the #1 cover glass used for our glass bottom dish/plate:
ne (λ=546.1 nm):1.5255
nD (λ=589.3 nm):1.5230
Abbe value ve: 55
We use a USP class VI adhesive to adhere the dish and the cover glass. This adhesive is nontoxic, and it is resistant to water and common fixing reagents such as methanol and ethanol. This makes our glass bottom dishes and glass bottom plates ideal for long term cell culture.
The bad news is that the adherence between the dish and the cover glass is so strong, that it is very difficult to detach the cover glass from the dish.
Most plastic vessels used to culture attached cells are made from polystyrene. Since polystyrene is hydrophobic and most cultured cells can not attach to hydrophobic surface, plastic cell culture vessels are usually surface treated to introduce hydrophilic groups onto the surface to help the attachement of cultured cells.Glass surface on the other hand, does not need any pre-treatment to allow the attachment of the cultured cells. However the attachment usually is not as strong as that of surface treated polystyrene, our experience indicates that poly-lysine, collagen coating works much better on plastic than on glass. Consequently, poly-lysine or collagen coating on glass are less stable than poly-lysine or collagen coating on surface treated plastics.
We have a detailed diagram of each of our glass bottom dishes and glass bottom plates, you can find them in the detailed description of each product. The dimension of the glass bottom plates conforms to ANSI/SBS standard.
The harmonized tarrif code of our glass bottom dishes and plates is 3923.90.00

My arrival in Beijing (please ignore the profanities...)
I'm back in Boston. But here is a video clip of my arrival at the Beijing Airport. Quan decided to be a creep & lurked behind a corner. She scared me mostly b/c I thought she was a local Chinese bum. And apparently she missed her cue b/c she thought the same thing about me. (Dad- I'm sorry, again, for the profanities...)

Contact Us
Feel free to contact us. We would love to hear any feed back you may have! Let's talk some football!
How do you call your offensive plays ? Do you have your QB come to the sidelines? Do you meet him a quarter of the way? Or do you use a wrist coach? The most effective way to call plays is with a wrist coach. The wrist coach will allow for plays to be delivered to your youth football quarterback quickly and easily.
Throughout my coaching years, I have executed the no huddle offense. Each player on the field has a wrist coach on their arm. Each position will have a custom wrist coaches. Meaning, the offensive linemen wrist coaches will say run or pass block. If it is a run play they will know to run block (follow blocking scheme). If the right guard is to pull and kick out the end man on the line of scrimmage the wrist coach will say pull left-kick out EMLOS. This stands for end man on line of scrimmage.
Each series, or grouping of plays, is highlighted with a color and named with a number. For example, coach yells "BLUE 2"- the players will look at their wrist and read the play name that is highlighted BLUE and is numbered 2. We will use two colors- green and blue. We like to label our plays those colors because after yelling the color and the # the opposing coaches will start recording what the plays are. So we will do verbal communication as well as hand signals. Say our sweep play is under green 1, I will point to the ground and then I will show one finger. Green stands for pointing to the grass, blue means pointing up to the sky. You can also have an assistant coach stand there and give dummy calls to throw off the opposing team and players.
Having all players utilizing wrist coaches can take your offense to a new level. Running a no huddle offense with every player having a wrist coach is a certain nightmare for youth football defenses. You will see opposing coaches burning timeouts and having trouble subbing players in and out. You will notice players and coaches getting tired because of the up-beat no-huddle offense. The no huddle will also help conserve the energy of your quarterback. If the quarterback comes to the sideline for every play it will eventually take a toll on him and he'll tire. Figure this: it is at least 20-30 yards this kid will have to run back and forth from the coach to the huddle every play.
Benefits of using wrist coaches for no huddle:

Norfolk Pine
Brian and I thought our journey would take much longer, but we broke the trip up with frequent stops as we soaked in all the beauty of the country-side setting. Breakfast at Charley's is a tradition. They were open and serving up the most wonderful Macadamia Nut Pancakes on this planet (fire destroyed the bar area last year). The sun was already beating down in Paia....no breeze, so our journey up to 2500 feet was welcomed.
Driving south on Baldwin Avenue we first came upon the little town of Makawao....a Paniolo or Hawaiian Cowboy town. Once a rough and tumble "wild west" outpost - it's now a lively "artsy" community with a main drag lined with fine art and a collection of boutiques.
Continuing along the Kula Highway, we were a bit disappointed with the low cloud cover, masking incredible views, but the sweet smell of the air and the cooling breeze more than made up for our lack of view. Vog (volcanic fog) began sweeping across Maui due to the on-going eruption of the Big Islands - Kilauea.
We made it to Ulupalakua, offering many treats for the eyes, palate and spirit. Our drive gave us a chance to get up close with wild horses and roaming cattle.
It's also the home of Maui's winery, Tedeschi vineyards. We sampled some unique wines in their tasting room located in the King's Cottage. This guest cottage was built specifically for the celebrated visit of King Kalakaua in April of 1874.
I begged Brian to drive 10 minutes further along the road, but the eerie remoteness and the on-coming rain proved too much for this trip. We've already travelled this back road to Hana before and neither one of us was up for the trip again.
We headed back north along the back road (Crater Road) nestled up against Haleakala Crater. Clouds enveloped the second largest volcanic mountain in the world (10,023 foot high summit), so we continued up to the Kula Lodge - and had a look around.
Kula has become a mecca for visitors looking for a glimpse of rural Hawaiian life - a longtime farming community. The lodge itself offers charming chalets and an extraordinary garden setting. The birthday girl had a chardonnay and relaxed in the mountain setting.
Our journey back to Paia took us through Haiku and Keokea, two rich - green pasture-land villages dotted with purple jacaranda flowers, which bloom every year around my birthday. The incredible beauty of this place has drawn artists from all over the world. Little studios and galleries are hidden around every turn.
Paia, is a bohemian north shore beach town where the start of the road to Hana begins. Boutiques, antique shops, fine art and native handicrafts fill the streets. Brian and I wandered around before heading just east of the heart of town to Mama's Fish House.
The island's iconic seafood house, Mama's Fish House has a unique location in a pocket-sized coconut grove, where the waves and the sun meet in perfect harmony. It's a classy, yet relaxed setting - and Brian and I had one of the best seats in the house.
Our meal was good, not phenomenal, but some of the best prepared "clean" food I have ever had. It's a pricey treat (something I had a hard time with upon review) You have to enjoy the entire "package" and realize that you are not just paying for the food on your plate, but rather - the opportunity to enjoy the ambiance and scenery of the north shore while eating fresh local fare.
Our pupus were delicious, Brian had Mama's Macadamia Nut Crab Cakes with Fire and Ice Relish - 2 cakes each dabbed with a spot of caviar that were mellow and well seasoned.I had the Ahi Tartare, served with tomato and goat cheese bruchetta. Rich, buttery tuna offset by the earthy, mild cheese.
Picking our entree was tough. Brian went with a wonderfully prepared King Salmon caught off the waters of New Zealand and grilled in a Ti Leaf with macadamia nuts, cilantro, lemongrass and coconut milk - along side grilled plantanes.
I debated between the Kahlua Crispy Duck and a regional fish - in the end, choosing the Uku caught over the deep reefs near Kahoolawe – Sautéed with Maui tomatoes, mushrooms, white wine, garlic and capers. Brian picked a wonderful Carneros Chardonnay, buttery, velvety and smooth - the perfect accompianment to our meal.
Complimentary coconut ice cream (candle included) was the perfect way to end the meal.
It was a long 50 minute journey back to West Maui. I so much appreciated Brian driving the entire day so that I could enjoy the journey.
A perfect day.....my birthday

text: Communication skills and the ability to connect with people in conversation is at the core of why or why not people are successful in life. The ability to talk to people, relate to people and listen effectively is skills that are not formally taught to us. They are typically not taught to us correctly by our parents, they are not taught to us by the public school system, and they are not taught to us in college. Not even in a MBA programs are the type of skills I am talking about really discussed. Yes they have classes on negotiating contracts and how to do it properly, but true communication skills and more importantly "sales" skills are not taught. What I mean by sales skills is the ability to listen to information people are telling you, make them feel like you are listening and accomplishing your goals through that conversation. There are not more important skills that we can teach our children than the ability to communicate effectively and to some degree sell people on things in life. The ability to make these connections will go farther for a young person making their way through college and early career than any college course they will ever take. The ability to connect with their peers and their bosses will make them an invaluable asset to whatever organization they associate themselves with, and they will be simply liked, which is more important than most people want to admit. Over my next couple posts I will be talking about some of the components of the skills I think are important. I have attended the Los Angeles police department and the FBI's hostage negotiation schools and the skills that are taught to handle crisis and hostage negotiations are skills that everyone can put in place into their lives, work, relationships and marriage to communicate more effectively and in the end be more successful.

I love it when the horses really dig into their food. Makes me feel as if I truly have a purpose in life and they are quite happy for me to fulfill it by filling them. *lol*
Besides there is something truly delightful about hearing horses munching --hay, grain, carrots, apples, horse treats...it's actually kind of soothing.

Like a figment of my imagination.
Reality as lifestyle is too confining.
Reality is a collective feeling.
Doors to the other worlds.
Doors to the other perception.
Doors of fantasy.
An infinite metamorphosis of a butterfly
And life.
Unrestless energy changes its form,
In one moment body to spirit,
In another thought to word.
Word turns to act,
Act turns to character.
Materials' metamorphose changes the colour
And composition.
It takes a new shape and charisma.
It represents a thought of an immortal energy.
Micro-life creating structure.
Organized creativity particles.

Christmas 2005
Griffin and Kane had a great time opening all of their presents. Even though the minute all of the toys were out of the packages, he ran around and tried to fit them all in his mouth and play with them all at once. Cheeto was even real excited about what he received from Santa for Christmas. All in all it was a wonderful unforgettable Christmas.

Seeing Christ
Scripture: Matthew 25:31-46
February 23, 2015
When I was in seminary I had the opportunity to work with a number of youth groups. The programs I helped to lead were centered upon providing opportunities for a well rounded faith experience. We took time to study scripture together, to play, to pray, to worship and to serve our neighbors.
One Valentine's Day we went to visit the members of our congregation who resided in nursing homes. We took a rose to each member and read them love poetry. One of the ladies we visited was blind. The kids poured into her room as we introduced ourselves. She held the rose up to her nose and breathed in its sweet fragrance as our youth took turns reading poetry. We concluded with a prayer and tears streamed down her face. She thanked us, telling that she truly felt loved that day.
Where do you find the presence of Christ? God's Kingdom exists where we reach out to those in need.
Prayer: God may I respond to the places where there is deep need. Amen.

Where is the Tough on Criminals Group When we Need Them?
For several yeas now Bernard Madoff has sat in a Federal prison in
. This is not a country club facility; this is a medium security facility where Mr. Madoff is confined, largely on the basis of his 150 year sentence. There are serious criminals in this place. North Carolina
The New York Times has an in depth story on the current status of Mr. Madoff and the attempts to recover some of the funds of investors who lost some or all of their money investing with Mr. Madoff. Interestingly enough, the story does not focus on many non-profits who lost large amounts, which in turn has damaged their ability to do the good deeds they were organized to do.
The main thing of interest is this part of the story.
In dozens of e-mails this year, Mr. Madoff has fiercely disputed Mr. Picard's assertions that he was a fraud from the start. He calls that allegation "an absurd theory."
His message to Mr. Picard and prosecutors: "Stop beating a dead horse," he wrote, in capital letters, in an e-mail dated Nov. 24.
"It drives me crazy," Mr. Madoff wrote in mid-October, that the trustee and the government "developed their theory that no trading took place ever."
Okay, there are a couple of issues here. The first is the why and how of Mr. Madoff's access to e-mail. It appears he has unlimited ability to send e-mails at a time when broad band access is simply not available to many Americans because of either cost or lack of technical access. By what right does Mr. Madoff get to do anything other than send, say, one letter a week and to have that letter censored before it goes out. He is a confessed, convicted felon; he did monstrous crimes and ruined the lives of many organizations and people, including his family. Destroying your own family may be the worst crime of all.
As for Mr. Madoff's complaint about the bankruptcy trustee, well, everyone has to remember that Mr. Madoff refused to cooperate in any way with the unraveling of the fraud or the recovery of funds. He has maintained, despite all logic to the contrary, that he acted alone, which was and is an impossibility. If Mr. Madoff wants the truth to come out, he is the one person who can do that most effectively.
Mr. Madoff also complains about the treatment of his family.
Mr. Madoff maintains that he went off the tracks in 1992 and would have been found guilty had he stood trial. He says he confessed to spare his family, but he wrote in November, "If I had known that things would turn out the way they did, with all the harassment of my family anyway, I would have spent the money and gone to trial."
The devastation of his family, including the suicide of his son rests squarely on the shoulders of Mr. Madoff. It was his actions that brought them unlimited wealth, and his actions which caused the rest of the world to maintain that his family, particularly his brother and his sons knew exactly what was going on. The logical explanation of his willingness to go to prison and his unwillingness to cooperate with the probe is that he is protecting people, in particular his family. That others are outraged at this should not be a surprise to Mr. Madoff; they do not buy what he is selling, not any more.
So Bureau of Prisons, let's take away Mr. Madoff's e-mail privileges, in fact, let's take away all his privileges, that will not be cruel and unusual punishment. It will be what we call justice.
