Thankfully, more and more people are feeling robust and healthy in their elder years. Declining disability rates show that many senior citizens are enjoying a high quality of life. Your boyfriend is doing well. Perhaps you need to catch up and take on a greater range of activities! Of course, you could be correct in saying that he is overloading himself and doesn't know how to relax, but generally speaking, it's good for older people — both for their minds and their bodies — to stay as active and involved as possible. Your boyfriend's zest for life may be contributing to the fact that he'll soon be celebrating his 77th birthday.

Crises do not come much bigger for catering companies than a freezer breakdown. Month's worth of stock are at risk of ruin, and profit margins can be severely hit. Over the years, Icecool Trailers have saved thousands of companies from heavy financial loss, by turning up in double quick time to provide emergency freezer trailers. Over the twenty years we have been established, we have dealt with all types of emergency freezer situation, from small family run restaurants to big hotels and events in full swing. Because we can act fast and be on the road in minutes, we are used to saving the day. You can rely on us to turn up, set up and stabilise your freezer trailer, leaving you plenty of time to transfer your food stocks before they spoil.
How to cope with freezer breakdown
- Don't panic. You have time to take measures while you wait for your emergency freezer trailer to arrive. Whilst it is true that bacteria begin to multiply as soon as the temperature of food rises, if the majority of the food stuff remains frozen it is unlikely you will have to discard it, as bacterial growth will be slow if the outer layers are at temperatures below 8°C.
- You can keep your remaining stock cold by piling it up to form 'igloos', and covering it in insulating material, such as newspaper or towels. This traps the cold in and gives you longer before food spoils.
- We aim to be with you within 2-4 hours if you are in London, Birmingham or Cardiff and as we have units at many other locations around the country, it won't be long before we arrive to set up your trailer. Be ready to transfer your stock as soon as we have set up. In a majority of emergency situations, stock can be saved.
What size freezer trailer?
We offer two sizes of freezer trailer. The 2.4m trailer is popular with smaller restaurants and catering facilities. It has a 6 cubic metre internal capacity. For larger establishments, the 3m trailer has an 8.5 cubic metre capacity and is suitable for most hotels and larger event catering. Both units are 'walk in', come with shelving, lighting and built-in stabilisers, all of which we set up for you. Our freezer trailers are lockable, and we hand you two keys before we leave. If you do not have a suitable power source, the units can be run from power generators. We can discuss all these details, and help you decide which size freezer trailer you need when you call.
Freezer Rooms
If your premises is not suitable for a trailer, we can install a freezer room on site. It comes in separate interlocking panels, which fit together to form a walk in freezer space. This is a great option for those with limited space outside.
Whatever your needs, Icecool Trailers will meet them. We do not see freezer emergencies, just freezer solutions!

She: "I do, Sweetheart, I do.... We promised each other to be stuck to this bench ever forever, didn't we? Am I correct?"
He: "Hmmm, kinda... We promised each other to be together ever forever, till each of us reaches 108 years, and we made that promise true. Happy Birthday, Darling! Happy 108!

A Little About Me
Thank you for taking the time to visit my website.
I am a qualified and experienced freelance photographer who has been taking photographs since I was first handed a camera when I was six years old.
Now, a few decades later I am still at it, albeit a lot more skilled and a little bit taller. I get the same sense of excitement when I pick up my cameras now that I did when my father first placed a camera in my small hands all those years ago. I also still hear is voice in my head saying "for heavens sake, don't drop it".
I was lucky enough to be raised in Africa by a farmer father and an artist mother. I was surrounded by diverse cultures, beliefs, landscapes and not to mention abundant wildlife. This has given me an eye for detail and a desire to share what I find beautiful and inspirational with the world.
I started my first business when I was 7 years old. Taking photos of family and friends and then demanding that they pay me for my services …. surprisingly this didn't go down too well!
After working in the marketing and advertising industry for over 10 years and dividing my time between my job and my passion, I decided to follow my heart and concentrate on photography full time. I have never looked back!
I have the honour of shooting around 35-40 weddings a year, with bookings being made anything up to 2 or 3 years in advance. I also do engagement, family and baby photography.
My aim is simply to provide my clients with beautiful and affordable photographs of themselves and loved ones that they will treasure.
I love what I do and I believe that I have the best job in the world.
I am based in the town of Redditch, just outside of Birmingham, which allows me easy access to the Midlands area. However, my commissions regularly take me to places across the UK.
Whether it is a formal event, a family portrait or commission – if you'd like to discuss your requirements in more detail and see further examples of my work then do get in touch.
If you have any questions – give me a call 07732 693 303 or use the contact page

Asus Becomes World's Top Gaming Laptop Maker
After a shouting contest, Asus has officially bested MSI as 2016's top dog in the gaming laptop department. This is especially good news for Asus, who risked embarrassment by declaring that they would sell over a million devices way back in August. In related notebook bragging news, HP is poised to overtake Lenovo for general notebook shipments in 2017.
While global gaming notebook sales in 2016 are estimated at 4.5 million units, Asustek Computer and Micro-Star International (MSI) shipped 1.2 million units and 800,000-850,000 units respectively, becoming the globally largest and second largest vendors. Global demand for gaming PCs is fast growing, with gaming PCs' popularity extending from North America, China, West Europe, North Europe, Japan and South Korea to Southeast Asia, East Europe and Latin America. Currently, high-end gaming notebooks are priced at over US$1,799, mid-range models at US$1,499-1,799 and entry-level ones at US$1,000-1,399. However, Asustek, MSI, Lenovo and HP have launched entry-level gaming notebooks for sale at US$799-999 in the China and Southeast Asia markets.


text: Hi Everyone, I've just had my Model S (Deep Blue Metalic) delivered and am absolutely loving it. Unfortunately, it got covered in tree sap at the weekend. While I've had it washed since, I've started thinking about paint protection/detailing. My local carwash has recommended AutoGlym/Supagard and they'd do the detailing for me. Has anyone had any experience with these? I'd love to know if there's another brand/company you'd recommend in the London area and how much it might cost. THanks

A JUDGE in Worcester has said the justice system is an "awful mess" after frustrated city solicitors say they waited six months to get their hands on vital paperwork.
District judge Nigel Cadbury launched a scathing attack on the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) after three defence solicitors revealed they had been waiting six months for the disclosure of basic information about a single case.
A CPS spokesman has since denied that they had contributed to any delay.
Speaking before a hearing at Worcester Magistrates Court in which four people were charged with assault occasioning actual bodily harm – which took place more than a year ago on 7 December 2012 – Mr Cadbury said that he did not blame the prosecutor.
He said: "It's an awful mess. I don't think it's your fault or the fault of lawyers who have to make one excuse after another for the CPS.
"But the system isn't geared up to deal with anything but the simplest of trials in the magistrates court. It is very frustrating and worrying. All of this means wasted costs."
Solicitors were seeking disclosure of two pieces of information – the custody record for the victim and his record of interview – but had not been handed the material the day before the trial was due to start.
Solicitor Peter Gotch was told he would have to wait to listen to audio tapes after the first day of the trial rather than before it began, because disclosure was so late.
Solicitor Judith Kenney said it was as if the injured party "did not exist'".
During a break in the hearing the prosecutor made a phone call to find that the injured party had not even been interviewed by police.
Mrs Kenney said after the hearing: "The task of defending has become more frustrating with the lack of information supplied by the CPS in time for us to prepare our cases.
"We appreciate there have been severe cuts in the CPS, but they are so pared to the bone they are incapable of supporting the work that arises as a result of the police arresting offenders.
"When there is material that should be disclosed which isn't, it can lead to innocent people being convicted of crimes they have never committed."
A CPS spokesman blamed IT problems and congestion in the court diary.
He added: "It is not accepted that these issues have hampered the commencement of the trial."

Independence of Papua New Guinea, 1975 – Fact sheet 261The nation of Papua New Guinea achieved its independence from Australia on 16 September 1975. Officiating at the main ceremony held in Port Moresby were His Royal Highness Prince Charles, Prince of Wales (representing Queen Elizabeth II, the British monarch); Sir John Kerr, Governor-General of Australia; Australian Prime Minister, Gough Whitlam; and Chief Minister of Papua New Guinea, Michael Somare, who became the country's first Prime Minister. The new country became a constitutional monarchy with membership of the British Commonwealth.
Australian administration, 1906–75
Papua New Guinea was administered by Australia as a single territory from 1945. It comprised the former British protectorate of Papua – which had been an Australian territory since 1906 – and the former German colony of New Guinea, which became Australia's responsibility as a Mandated Territory of the League of Nations (1921–42) and a United Nations Trust Territory following World War II.
Territory administration was the responsibility of an Australian Government Administrator who reported to the Australian Department of External Territories (Department of Territories, 1951–68) and, from 1973, to the Papua New Guinea Office. From 1951, the Administrator was assisted by an appointed Legislative Council, which in 1964 was replaced by an elected House of Assembly. As a prelude to independence, Papua New Guinea became a self-governing territory on 1 December 1973.
Records about the independence of Papua New Guinea
The National Archives holds a wide range of records documenting the processes that led to Papua New Guinea independence. These include records of key agencies such as the Department of External Territories (and Territories), Department of Foreign Affairs, Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet, and the Attorney-General's Department. Photographs of independence day ceremonies and celebrations are also held.

What are the basic skills of the basics?
20 comments:
"For improvement, two elements play a role, skill and condensed knowledge."ReplyDelete
Performance is the result of KSA ( = Knowledge, Skill and Ability http://www.cdc.gov/hrmo/ksahowto.htm )
Abilitys in chess would be, to be able to checkmate in less than 50 moves with Bishop and Knight and things like this. Not a skill and not just knowledge.
" M1-h is the first exercise with a high "restrain-dose", but since it is a compound exercise, you are never able to train your restrain-skill at high speed,"
I dont think that high speed is necessary during the training. A good thinking process with lots of attention to this detail could do too. Just estimatingly slower
"That suggests he masters a subskill that is used in all these exercises."
Not "a" subskill.. several ( dozends )
If you improve "natural" you have to improve several subskills at the same time and its virtually impossible to improve just one of them.
This analysis of board vision and it subskills was at my blog.. maybe it helps:
@Aox, btw, I compared the avg checks per minute at FAC with the values of my own measurements, and they seem about 50% off. How can that be?Delete
To get more stable values i did experiment with different "averages". Dont remember which i did take was it was it the reciprocal of the average reciproke..? The idea is that a single "long break" has no big effect, you may leave and drink a coffee the value will not change a lot, if you do it only once in a while. In other words long delays have less weight than short delays, or, the script puts more attention to the peak speed, its an average of spee and not of time.Delete
Say you have 10 mates in 10 sec and the next comes for simplicity after 11 days
The average time for finding a mate would be 11 / 11 days = something like 0
If you calculate the average speed: (10 * 1 +0)/11 thats still almost 11.
The other averages did jump around to much in my opinion
Aha, that explains the anomalies I saw. Guess I want to become twice as fast by changing the figures.Delete
"Tomasz' initial speed at exercises like M1-e, M1-h and FAC is far greater than mine. That suggests he masters a subskill that is used in all these exercises. Maybe is willing to share what that is and how he trained it? ;)"
I am going to proove that improving at M1-h at 100% ratio is possible in my case. It will be extremally hard, but there is no other way to convince Aox about the scenario "mate in 1 IS a task that can be improved with specific training".
Mastering the subtasks is much harder in my case as I do not use any specific training - it is just Saltmines style ;). If my tests will show the evidence that M1 is improvable - I would have to reveal the secret: solve 120.000 puzzles M1-e, a few thousand of attackers and defenders at Chessgym, few thousand of FAC and few thousand of M1-h. It anyone is "MDLM-crazy guy - you can replicate it" LOL.Replies
What's your score at chessgym with the attackers and the defenders?Delete
An important difference between your and mine preparation seems to be the attackers and defenders at chess gym. I will try to fix that and see what the effect is on the other exercises.Delete
Tomasz was twice as fast at easy tactics than me anyway, he is expert level at easy tactics so he is twice as fast in m1 anyway ( now even more ;)
My Gym values
Attackers 44.45/min #5,766 16h 46m 09s
Defenders 52.32/min# #1,444 5h 45m 36s
So I guess I must not expect too much from that either. Maybe we should find out if Tomasz eats a lot of fish, or something.Delete
I suspect that sucess in chess is the amount of work you do in your younger ages. But it could be talent ( = genes ) too? Or maybe Tomasz did pay his whole live more attention to such details ~= thinking method?Delete
To be better = to be faster
Some are better -> some are faster.
The interesting thing is that Tomasz was able to improve some in M1-e.
That tells me that M1 is ( almost ) easy enough for him.
We both have to make m1 easy.. or except that m1 ( and so the whole tactics ) is not improvable for us.
No fish.
To do a training with attackers and defenders is no bad idea but i dont think this is specific enough to help a lot at m1.
The FAES = Find all escape squares should help much more
@Tempo "Maybe we should find out if Tomasz eats a lot of fish, or something."Delete
Maybe we should estimate if he is really crazy, because he has played 120K chess games (blitzes and bullets), solved 120-140K chess puzzles (mate in 1) and spend 12K hours at practicing tactics and playing (fast) chess games. If we add these number it looks like Tomasz devoted 12K hours and has seen (repeated and been exposed) to 250K chess puzzles/positions. That may explain why he obtained a very high level of skill at #1 puzzles.
It depends what you mean "younger ages". If we assume Tomasz has started playing chess at about 20 years old (!) - it is not young age at all! Howeber the amount of work (done by Tomasz) related to mate, checkmate and very simple tactics... is HUGE (look above).
Tomasz talent is NON-existence - he is a very average intelectual man (chess amateur). And we can agree that Tomasz paid (devoted) his whole live (at least last 18 year of his life) to solving (simple) puzzles all over again and again. He has been able to solve Ivashenko's workbook (Manual of chess combinations 1A+1B - now as two volumes; formerly one volume of 1320 puzzles) so many times as he memorized all of the book! There are 1320 puzzles and they are different level of difficulty (complexity). Tomasz has been able to solve 1200 puzzles (the rest are the endgame and some of the puzzles require to show even up to 12-14 moves) in a bit more than 22 minutes time! 1320 (sec) : 1200 (puzzles) = 1,1 sec per puzzle!
Tomasz tried hard and repeated the puzzles to such a degree that one day he started solving (and repeating) the puzzles from 8 a.m. and finished midnight! (yes, 16 hours straight after that he fell down to bed as he was simply exhausted; he even did not remember when/how fast he fell asleep). Tomasz solved about 20.000 chess puzzles BEFORE digital era - like nowadays access to the puzzles via Internet or chess programs (training ones or special designed databases puzzles).
Tomasz was able to improve at M1-e, because he has practised these puzzles (hats off to Aox for providing EXCELLENT tool) until he solved 120K puzzles of the same type (the same database has been repeated all over again). He simply memorized the types of puzzles and the solutions. At present he is able to solve 90% of these below 1,5sec each!
That's right - the M1-e puzzles are too easy for Tomasz. He cannot break 45MPM no matter what he does and that's why he finally decided to give a try to such tools as: FAC, M1-h and if they will not make any difference (at M1-e) he will try to use ChessGYM (attackers and defenders).
I agree that FAES will help quite much - not just at M1-e, but in M1-h too! If there is such tool present and it is possible to practice - just let me know!
If you have any questions or comments just ask Tomasz ;) :)
Here is my present (achieved 2 months ago) score at chessgym with the attackers and the defenders:ReplyDelete
Attackers -> 54.29 4,362 13h 29m 56s
Defenders -> 84.38 2,317 6h 22m 19s
(M1-h) Done: 277; Mates / min: 15.03.
I have to solve about 2-3K of these puzzles to learn the algorithm. They are extremally difficult ones, but they learn you a lot of subskills. I have hard time when solving, but the score is getting better and bettter (even at a very slow motion/pace).
These hard #1 puzzles are really nice as they are really shocking at first. However they are extremally logical and you have to be precise! You cannot "shot everywhere" and see what happens. Sometimes I am sure there is a mistake in the puzzle, but after some moments I see the "hidden option".
What is my goal: There are multiple goals with the step by step way to achieve them.
GOAL 1: score 15 MPM
GOAL 2: score 20 MPM
GOAL 3: score 25 MPM
GOAL 4: score 30 MPM (ultimate goal)
IF I am correct the last goal will be achieved in about 3-4 months from now. However it is very important as we could say "at least one crazy guy proved IT IS possible to improve at M1-puzzles type excercises!" LOL
Back to the saltmines! Welcome to the bonus stage! ;) :).ReplyDelete
Done: 805 --> Mates / min: 15.73. It is the average score of mine. There was a moment when my screen showed 18-19 MPM, but it was just a "noise", not a standard performance.
The hard puzzles are VERY hard ones (except those when the King is the only piece left against at least 3-8 opposite pieces). Why? They require you know very well such elements as:
1) ALL the possible checks - if you cannot do it very well, back to the saltmines! (FAC is your first aid!)
2) After you know how to find FAC you can click the wrong ones. Why? Simply because you played an illegal move!
3) A Tool called "FALCM" (Find all legal moves check-moves) is needed. If you make a check and think it is mate, you have to check if your move is legal!
4) You have to know what are the squares of the opponent's King. Find all escape square is a must (FAES). Practice it until you will be a master at this one! Otherwise you will be making checks, not mates!
5) You have to recognize if your (checking) move will not end up with being taken by one of your opponent pieces! Therefore you have to practice "Find all the attackers" to see every of your (check) move as "clean" one (that one your opponent cannot capture).
And you are at the chess board chaos - all the pieces are close to random configuration (setup) and your task is to get through this hell jungle! After that you are awarded with finding the best move. Is it easy? Let's see:
a) pins, discovered check, double check, line clearance, opening and closing lines (done by pawns), counterpins along all the lines (vertical, horizontal and diagonal)
b) original promotion (non-standard like promoting to N is possible too!), long moves and and pieces at the opposite squares far away from mating square (your pieces as well as your opponents!)
If you are able to comprehend it very well you are eligble to break 20 MPM at mate in 1 hard. Remember the name: HARD! You have been warned - now it is your turn to see how good you are! :)
BTW. Reaching GOAL 2 (score 20 MPM) seems like hard work! If anyone of you breaks 30 MPM at mate in 1 hard - it will be really impressive performance (like scoring 45 MPM at Mate in 1 easy).
This list is incomplete! There are in fact THREE unique "block" functions in chess with important differences.ReplyDeleteReplies
I adopted the list of Radovic. His blocking implies putting a piece between the attacker and the target, which means the interposed piece becomes pinned.Delete
We use the term "blockade" for several other things.
A king can be blocked by its own piece, which falls in the category "restrain".
So what do you mean?
I am doing a detailed blog on this now, but I also started with Radovic's list but quickly found it was insufficient. I believe he has taken this list off of his website (at least I haven't been able to find it for a while).Delete
For one, I believe he uses the term "restrain" to mean attacking SQUARES to prevent your opponent from accessing them, instead of meaning PIECES that are physically preventing the opponent from moving past them. I use the term "restrict" to describe attacked squares that are off limits to the opponent.
On blocking, I've expanded the list of terms to cover the three unique functions:
"limiting" is the corollary of "defend". This only requires two allied pieces -- the piece being defended piece is in turn physically preventing the defender from reaching certain squares. Does not apply to pawns since they can defend without in turn being limited. A king and knight are short range so the impact of being limited is only the square the defended piece is on.
"blockade" is the corollary of "attack". This only requires one enemy and one allied piece -- the piece being attacked is in turn physically preventing the attacker from reaching certain squares. Same caveats as above for pawns, kings, and knights.
"shielding" replaces the common term for blocking by interposing. This requires three pieces - two allied and one enemy -- that are ON THE SAME LINE.
At the end of the first comment of this post i did give a link to a list of basic visions sorted by the number of pieces at the board.ReplyDelete
i think it is not that important to get a precise definition, in my eyes its most important to generate high volume improvable exercises ( taken from real games ?)Replies
That's interesting -- thanks for sharing. what was your source for Averbakh's definitions of contact?Delete
I'm not sure I agree with your second point though. Perhaps I don't understand what you mean. Definitions are useful for understanding a position, and having unique terms for the relationships provides quick recall to the implications of those relationships. I agree that not all relationships/functions can be trained in isolation, but that does not make them unimportant.
If i remember correct i have these definitions from one of his middlegameDelete
books, but i did try to extract the elements independent "bottom up".
If we want to improve in tactics ( here now we try to improve in m1 ) then a top down method might be quicker.
As soon as we find a subtask which is improvable it might not be necessary to search any deeper and search for subsubtasks and so on. Such lowest level tasks will be hard to improve, they are already extreme quick.
I think/hope that it is more effective to do a training of FAC for example which is a higher-level task ( ~ = "take" the king in 2! moves ) than to do any of its subtasks ( if not necessary! ).
IF we keep failing at making m1 improvable , the idea of the whole theory collapse anyway :/
I do not believe m1 is not-improvable. THE ONLY question is how to do it in an efficient way (what elements are necessary, how to train them, what duration and what period of time is needed, etc.).Delete
I strongly believe that unless we find these critical/key elements - we will be going around the circle (run at the same place, but do not move forward).

Cambridgeshire County Council to adopt committee led system of governance in May 2014
PUBLISHED: 16:19 20 June 2013 | UPDATED: 16:19 20 June 2013
THE timeline for the transition from a cabinet to a committee led system of governance at Shire Hall has been revealed.
Cambridgeshire County Council will officially adopt the committee structure on May 13 2014.
A team of officers will work to ensure a smooth transition to the new system.
They will report to group leaders in July and to the Constitution and Ethics Committee in October.
Proposed constitutional arrangements will be brought in front of full council for approval on December 11 2013.
Training for councillors and officers will take place between January and April next year to help them adjust to the new system.
Liberal Democrat Councillor Killan Bourke tabled a motion which called for the abolition of the cabinet structure and a transition to committee led governance on May 21.
Addressing the chamber, he said: "It is wrong that so much power is concentrated in the hands of so few people
"It is harmful to the quality of decision making.
"The committee system is the most democratic and representative form of governance."
Bourke had the support of the Labour, UKIP and Independent members
Labour leader Councillor Paul Sales said the committee system was "a better system of governance", while Independent leader Councillor John Hipkin said "my instinct is that people can be trusted to make responsible decisions and it's better for the responsibility for them to be with as wide a group as it is sensible to accommodate."
Councillor Martin Curtis' amendment to the motion, which called for the Constitution and Ethics Committee to carry out a review of all possible options for governance, was rejected.

A Morpeth-based charity is setting up new regular support groups for people caring for relatives or friends with multiple sclerosis (MS) thanks to a grant from Newcastle Building Society.
MS Research and Relief Fund (MSRRF) provides a range of services free of charge for about 1,000 people with the disease across the region.
It has been looking to establish a service to specifically address the many needs of people who look after loved ones with MS.
And after being put forward for a grant by Morpeth branch customer Catherine Gilroy, a £1,500 donation has been made by the Newcastle Building Society Community Fund.
This grant, alongside funds from other organisations including The Ridley Family Charity, will enable MSRRF to set-up and run the new groups from its headquarters – Benmar House in Stobhillgate.
Mabel Duncombe, corporate fund-raiser at MSRRF, said: "Finding ways to provide more support for these carers is an area that we've been keen to address for some time, and the funding we've been given by Newcastle Building Society means we can get on with delivering this support."
The groups will allow carers to meet people in similar situations to themselves, share their experiences, get access to useful new information and find support where they need it – all free of charge.
Katie Wallace, manager at the society's Morpeth branch, said: "Backing MSRRF's excellent carers' initiative will make a direct positive impact on the lives of people locally and across the region."

Castlebridge is a large village on the R741 regional road in County Wexford, Ireland, north of Wexford Town. It is located near the River Slaney and just north of Wexford Harbour. Castlebridge is a rapidly expanding suburb of Wexford town, its population increased from 783 in 1996 to 1,013 in 2002, and to 1624 in the 2006 census, and 1726 in 2011.
The Castle that originally stood in the village was dismantled to build buildings such as the Church of Ireland Church, which is one of the oldest buildings in Castlebridge.
The river that flows through Castlebridge is actually a canal that replaced the original river. It was dug out by hand to allow sailing cots that loaded up in the various docks of Castlebridge to get to Wexford Town more quickly.

It is seldom that I meet a man at London escorts that I just got to have, but when Tarik stepped in through my door, I just knew that I had to have him. He was one of the most attractive men that I had ever met during my time at the best London escort agency, and it was clear that he was looking for a bit more of a liason than a London escorts date. We ended up hooking up in private a couple of times, and it did not take me very long to become his mistress.
I would don't feel bad about being Tarik's mistress, but I do feel a bit guilty about my boyfriend. He has always been okay about me working for London escorts, but I am not sure how he would feel if he knew that I have a lover outside of London escorts. Actually I think that he suspects that I have got something going on, but he has not said anything about it yet. We don't live together, so it has been rather easy for me to tell him that I have really busy at London escorts.
Does he believe me? I am not sure that my boyfriend believes me, but he also seems to be very busy at the moment, and that is okay. Most of the time, we meet up after I have finished my London escorts shift a couple of times per week. I do like the guy, but I take my relationship with Tarik much more seriously. My friends at London escorts think I like Tarik only because he spoils me rotten, but there is a lot more to our relationship than that.
Would my London escorts colleagues believe me if I said that I thought I have this sort of meeting of minds going on with Tarik? I am not sure that they would believe me at all. We date a lot of Arab gents at London escorts, and they do like to through their money around. So does Tarik, but there is something different about him. He does crazy stuff like takes me to South End for the day. I love that you never know what is going to happen around him.
Not only is he fun to be with, but he does nice things for other as well. Yes, I know that he is really rich, but that is not it. I have learned a lot from Tarik about life, and I wish that he was not married and had to go back to Dubai after the summer. I know that most of the other girls at London escorts think that I am just using him for what I can get out of him, and in a way I do, but there is something deeper about our relationship, and Tarik says that we are meant to be friends for life. Funny enough, I do believe and I can feel that special connection as well. Maybe we are soul mates just like he says.

Suavito stormed home in the final stages to steal the 2014 Matriarch Stakes on the line at Flemington this afternoon.
Gai Waterhouse-trained Amanpour fought off Solicit to take a clear lead at the 300 metre mark and she looked as though she was going to hold on to record a tough win before Girl In Flight loomed as the winner on her outside.
Damien Oliver on Suavito had tracked Girl In Flight into the race and waited until as late as possible to expose the Thorn Park mare before she stormed down the outside of the field to hit the front in the shadows of the post.
The Matriarch Stakes win was Oliver's sixth victory of the 2014 Melbourne Cup Carnival and he was delighted to get Suavito home after she blocked for a run at a key stage of the race.
"I thought that she was going to be something beat because I got a little bit held up in the straight," Oliver said.
"She got clear and I really asked her for a big effort late and full credit to this mare, she is a little beauty, she tries her heart out and she managed to get there on the line for us.
"Nigel was tempted to run her in the Myer last Saturday, but fortunately he resisted the temptation and saved her for this race and it paid dividends."
Nigel Blackiston played a key role in preparing a number of winnings at the Melbourne Cup Carnival during his time with legendary trainer Bart Cummings, including Melbourne Cup victories with Kingston Rule (1990), Let's Elope (1991), Saintly (1996) and Rogan Josh (1999), but the Matriarch Stakes win was his first during the Melbourne Cup Carnival as a trainer in his own right.
Blackiston said that he was always confident that Suavito would run out a strong 2000 metres and he was delighted with the way that she savaged the line in the final stages of the Matriarch Stakes.
"She never has [run a bad race] and she is tough as raw boots and I am very happy," Blackiston said.
"She always finds the line strong and it is a great result.
"The track was a little bit firm and I was a little bit concerned, but the way she finished it off – she just attacked the line beautifully.
"It is something that I have always aimed for at this time of year, it is our grand final, and to win for some great people and great friends is fantastic."

Can you feel the cool air
of the Autumn evening?
The air is heavy like a cloak of cold
surrounding you
As the sun descends in a transparent glow
beyond the horizon
Taking with it its warmth
the last flickering light of day.
The fragrance of late blooming Summer flowers
lingers on
and pervades the stillness of the air
And the scent of amber foliage
as it dresses the forest floor.
See the crescent moon rising
in its golden glowing
As it silently crosses the sky
sometimes partly obscured by the trees
It appears and disappears
as it glimpses from the shadows
Lighting the darkness momentarily
with its warm light
A promise,
that the sun still shines
Beyond the shadow of the Earth
and her face will greet us once again
In the beauty of the next radiant morning.

Disturbing, beautifully drawn portraits of frantic losers - a stockbroker bribing a pharmacist, a failed family man committing suicide in a hurricane. Balancing the lunacy is an exhilarating Celtic reel and a heavenly tune about a nun changing a tire. A quiet grabber.

Russell Crowe's Cinderella Story - By DAVID HALBFINGER
LIKE its protagonist, the boxer James J. Braddock Jr., Ron Howard's new movie, "Cinderella Man," enters the ring at something of a competitive disadvantage.
Some are calling it "Seabiscuit" on two legs and wondering if another true-to-life Depression-era underdog tale can possibly do as well. Others ask if another boxing movie with Oscar hopes can succeed after "Million Dollar Baby."
Then there's the utter lack of suspense. If "Million Dollar Baby" cold-cocked filmgoers with a plot twist so jarring it knocked the film into another genre, Mr. Howard's "Cinderella Man" asks audiences to walk into its punches eyes wide open.
Even if you didn't already know that Braddock was once heavyweight champion of the world, or consider that Mr. Howard's movies have happy endings, or grasp the implication of the title, you probably still will have figured out how "Cinderella Man" ends before you pick up your popcorn.
Small wonder, then, that Mr. Howard and the movie's distributor, Universal, are likening "Cinderella Man" to "Apollo 13," Mr. Howard's Oscar-winning 1995 picture about the ill-starred 1970 moon mission: everyone knew the astronauts had made it home alive, but the movie was still a smash.
"What I discovered in both movies was that people would suspend not their disbelief, but that anticipatory part of their brain, and genuinely worry about what the outcome was going to be," Mr. Howard said. "If the emotional connection was vivid enough, then the audience really could feel what it was like to walk in those characters' shoes."
Or as Akiva Goldsman, one of the screenplay's writers, put it: "Fairy tales don't feel like fairy tales to the people that live them. Cinderella herself was having a pretty terrible time."
In "Cinderella Man," which opens June 3, Russell Crowe plays Braddock, the contender from North Bergen, N.J., who breaks his hand and slides into boxing oblivion - and onto the welfare rolls - only to make the unlikeliest of comebacks at the height of the Great Depression, culminating in a June 13, 1935, title bout with Max Baer.
Like "Apollo 13," the film has the added benefit of sticking close to the facts, which even at the time seemed almost too good not to have been scripted.
Mr. Howard said he had learned in "Apollo 13" that "you don't have to reach so far" to create the kind of scenes in which viewers connect with characters. "They don't need things to be dressed up," he said. "In my earlier films, pre-'Apollo 13,' I was inclined to strain a little more to create those moments."
In "Cinderella Man," such moments include one in which Braddock, banned from boxing and defeated in his efforts to support his family, returns to their dark, cold basement apartment and finds that his wife has sent their children away for their safety. And another, moments later, in which the boxer, swallowing his pride, goes hat in hand to the bosses of boxing for the money to reunite his family.
Reaching audiences through such moments is "a little like lightning striking," Mr. Howard said. "You think it goes down and hits the ground. But in fact, the two charges meet, and some of the charge actually comes up from the ground. The audience is ready to do a lot more of the work, and they're capable of doing a lot more than I realized." Unlike "Apollo 13," though, "Cinderella Man," which also stars Renée Zellweger as Braddock's wife and Paul Giamatti as his trainer, turns out to be somewhat political, depicting the salutary effects of welfare at a time when another New Deal cornerstone, Social Security, is a hot topic again.
"I've always been fascinated by the Depression," said Mr. Howard, who grew up hearing his father, Rance Howard, tell stories of the family's subsistence farm in Oklahoma. (The elder Mr. Howard, who plays a ring announcer, became a boxing fan at 7 when his own father drove him to the local pool hall to listen to the Braddock-Baer fight on radio.)
While in high school, Mr. Howard made a 30-minute documentary about the Depression, interviewing his father and others and using old photos.
"What was really shocking to me were the images of poverty in big cities," he said. "Whenever you'd see poor straggling kids with the New York City skyline in the background, or you'd see these men, still dressed in their business suits but standing in a breadline, it was as least as devastating as the Okies with all their stuff packed on a Model T."
In "Cinderella Man," he added, "I wanted to remind people that the working poor existed then, and we have it today. While the economy is mostly up and then sometimes down - the Internet bubble bursting felt a little bit like '29, where people had overextended and fallen into that trap again - we're anxious. Our population is anxious. We're not in a depression, thank God, but I think it's crossing our minds that something could happen, things could change, and not for the better, for the worse."
Braddock's own politics allowed for a movie that, like much of Mr. Howard's work, hews close to an idealized American middle ground: after accepting relief, the boxer paid back the government. "As much as it ate at him, it saved his family," Mr. Howard said. "It's this kind of harmony, in a way, between a governmental system that would offer support, and a population that wouldn't exploit it."

Things To Do
Franklin G. Burroughs Simeon B. Chapin Art Museum opens two new exhibits
The Franklin G. Burroughs-Simeon B. Chapin Art Museum will open two all new exhibits for the new year with "Voices of the Island: The Cuban Art Collection of Reynier Llanes", and "Swim: An Artist's Journey", opening Thursday, Jan. 15.
Voices of the Island features 55 works by 18 artists (including Llanes), all of whom are from Cuba and most of whom are still living there. The works are all part of Llanes' personal collection. Though the artists' styles and subject matter vary greatly, most share several common themes – a strong link to the Cuban culture and landscape, an emphasis on family or unity, and reflection on contemporary Cuban society. There are landscapes, abstract pieces, portraits, still lifes and more.
Swim: An Artist's Journey features a series of paintings aimed at confronting artist Charles Williams' own deeply held fears as well as the cultural and psychological barriers to swimming experienced by black youth.
Swim is a highly personal artistic exploration documenting the artist's past and more recent interactions and fears associated with the ocean: from wave formations in the ocean to the physical inability to swim and the paralysis caused by his fear. His images merge the conflicting emotions aroused by the ocean: alluring and sensual, yet mysterious and at times overwhelming.
An opening reception, open and free to the public, will be held from 5:30 – 7:30 p.m. Jan. 15. A concurrent exhibition, Voices of the Island: The Cuban Art Collection of Reynier Llanes, opens on the same date. Gallery talks by both artists will begin at 6:00. The opening reception is Free for Art Museum members and $10 for non members.
Regular gallery hours for Swim will be from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday, 1 – 4 p.m.Sundays. Both exhibits run through April 23.

My little dragon trick or treated like a champ. Well, let me rephrase that. He didn't like it, until he realized people were putting candy in his bucket. Then....
He was a Trick or Treating Machine.
Let's back up. Grandma and Grandpa were in town, and because of Hurricane Sandy they pushed back our town's Trick or Treat until Saturday. So we saved the Pumpkin carving and candy grabbing activities for them to share in. Its nice to be able to do things like that when they live so far away- feel free to move closer!!
Yeah, Pap- Im not so sure of that stuff.
Taking a peek...will he do it?
Touching the guts!
Checking out Daddy's handiwork.
Shoving him in a pumpkin, just like last year. This year both the Bean and the Pumpkin are bigger...but he didnt fit so well this year.
After Pumpkins were carved and bellies were full- it was time to go get some candy!
Practicing our Dragon Growl.
Nice, Daddy.
Pappy and Grammy dressed as hippies to take him trick or treating- and he was terrified.
Our first real haul- complete with a super nice treat bag from our favorite neighbors!

Tesco Bridgewater Community Champion David McKay is all set to shave his head to raise money for Action Cancer on Saturday 3 October.
David will be supporting Banbridge Action Cancer's Paint the Town Pink campaign which runs throughout October, with various fundraising events taking place in the town.
David said: "I volunteer with a lot of charities through my job as Community Champion but the ladies at Action Cancer usually do three or four events a year with us and I've worked with them for about for or five years.
"I wanted to help out with their Paint the Town Pink campaign and we were trying to come up with ideas for fundraising."
David explains how they settled on a head shave.
He said: "I've done sponsored swims before and other things like that but I thought a ehad shave was appropriate for cancer as it shows what people have to go through.
"I'm a bit nervous about it as I'm getting on a bit now and I don't know how much of it is going to grow back."
Cancer has personally affected David and is another motivating factor behind his fundraising.
He said: "On a personal level like must families in Northern Ireland, I have been touched by cancer. My dad, Uncle Billy and Aunt Jean lost their battle with cancer.
"On the positive side my mum is in remission after overcoming Breast Cancer 3 times and she is a true inspiration."
David hopes to raise £500 for Action Cancer. Donations can be made in store on the day of the head shave or via his JustGiving page - https://www.justgiving.com/DavidMcKay/.
The head shave will be taking place at 4.30pm on Saturday 3 October at Tesco Bridgewater in Banbridge.
Banbridge will go pink for Action Cancer on October 3 with all kinds of interesting decorations around the town and in the shop windows.
The Action Cancer Big Bus mobile screening service will be at the Leisure Centre that day.
To book an appointment for The Big Bus please phone 028 90 80 3344.

West End Gold!
It's a little less than two weeks until Petts Wood Operatic Society tread the boards alongside some of theatre's biggest and upcoming stars. West End Gold, taking place on 15th March at The Stag Theatre, Sevenoaks, is sure to be a hit and is the perfect Mother's Day gift!
Performances: Sunday 15 March, 4pm and 7.30pm.
Ticket Price: £20, £19c

The show features a cast of stars of the West End including Shona Lindsay. When Shona first played Christine in The Phantom of the Opera at Her Majesty's Theatre, London (for 18 months) she was the youngest actress in the world to do so. Prior to returning to the role for another 10 month season, Shona starred as Sandy in the hugely successful West End production of Grease at the Dominion and Cambridge Theatres. Jenna Boyd has performed in The Sound of Music, I Can't Sing, Les Miserables and most recently as Adele in Harry Hill's Stars in Their Eyes for ITV. Lauren Varnham has performed in such West End hits as Hairspray, Carousel and High School Musical. However, she is probably best known for her roles in the Queen musical We Will Rock You. Jamie Capewell's wide ranging CV includes international tours of Starlight Express and Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.*

Sport-locker.net bring you a little update on how the UK Finalists of Nike's campaign The Chance are faring – as they head to Rio Ferdinand's boot camp!
Over the last six months Nike have been scouring the UK for The Chance, a global talent hunt that aims to uncover talented teenage footballers who have been overlooked by traditional scouting networks.
Nike's scouts watched more than 5,000 players in the UK and an extensive series of trials has produced three UK winners: Liam Baker (a forward), Jose Figura and Ashleigh Artwell (both midfielders) were selected by a panel composed of experienced coaches, ex-professional footballers and Manchester United and England's Rio Ferdinand.
The three representatives will be heading to Barcelona for the Global Finals where they will attempt to claim places in the winners' squad.
Ahead of this Nike made sure they were as well prepared as possible by putting them through their paces at Rio's Boot Camp in Manchester.
Rio Ferdinand has been involved in The Chance since its UK launch in March right up to the UK Finals, and he arranged for the three hopefuls to stay in a mansion, get kitted out in the latest Nike Football and Nike Sportswear gear, and benefit from a genuine insight into the life of a professional footballer player by working with a range of Manchester United's coaches and experts.
This was, according to Manchester United 1st team conditioning coach Tony Strudwick, a "fantastic opportunity for these players to become part of the Manchester United experience" and he didn't hold back when putting them through a rigorous fitness assessment on the first morning of Rio's Boot Camp. They recovered from this with an introduction to yoga from the club's resident expert before heading to the Nike Football Store where they embroidered their new Clash Collection boots with their initials.
The second day of the boot camp saw Liam, Jose and Ashleigh exposed to an England international and two of the best coaching footballing minds, as well as an England international. First team coach Rene Meulensteen taught the youngsters about the mental side of the game whilst assistant manager Mike Phelan gave them an in-depth insight into the tactical thinking behind preparations for every match. The three players also hit the training ground with Manchester United and England's Chris Smalling who worked on attacking and defending with them.
For what they thought was their final day at the club, the finalists joined the reserve squad for a training session in what was a considerable step up in standard for them. All three, however, acquitted themselves extremely well, with reserve team coach Warren Joyce commenting: "looking at them this morning you would have expected that they would be at professional clubs already."
To give them one last boost mentor Rio Ferdinand dropped in on their final training session to wish them luck, give them a couple of pointers on handling the pressure of the Global Finals and let them know that he'd reserved them a prime table in his restaurant, Rosso, for an evening out!
With the Global Finals being held in Barcelona from 19th-25th August, Liam, Jose and Ashleigh will be boarding the plane full of confidence after Rio's Boot Camp. As Jose put it: "We'll go into Barcelona on our top levels, so it's going to be challenge for the guys out there."
