Hankook Tyres
Car Hankook Tyres Dublin is one of the world's largest and fastest growing tyre manufacturer for radial tires for passenger cars, light trucks (SUVs, RVs, and etc.), trucks, and buses. Hankook Tyres uses a tyre labeling system to provide useful purchase information for consumers who buy new tyres. Through such a labeling system, consumers will be able to personally check the excellent performance of Hankook Tyres
Regulations require car tyres fitting Dublin manufacturers to declare fuel efficiency, wet grip rating and external rolling noise performance for C1, C2 and C3 tires (i.e. tires mainly fitted on passenger cars, and on light and heavy-duty vehicles). Click here to read more about EU Tyre Regulations.
When it comes to vehicle wear and tear, your car tyres are in a league of their own. A properly-fitted tyre with ample tread depth is essential to your safety whenever you or your family make a journey. So making sure your tyres are inflated to the correct pressure, and are not over-worn is a potentially life-saving check for any driver.
How do I know if my tyres need replacing?
The law in Ireland states that your tyres must have a minimum of 1.6mm tread across 75% of the wheel surface. Driving your car with tread is worn beyond this limit is an offense, and could land you with a nasty fine (2,500 per tyre!). But more importantly, your safety is potentially at risk if your tyres don't meet this requirement.
You can buy a simple tread gauge from most forecourts, so we strongly advise that you keep one handy, and make checks on a regular basis.
The law also states that your car tyres should be of a certain size and type for the car you are driving. This isn't a major cause for concern for most drivers who have their tyres supplied and fitted by a reputable garage or Baldoyle Auto Centre Ltd
You should also know that the law forbids having two separate types of tyre on either side of your axle. If in doubt, ask your us to check that your car conforms to legal standards.
How do i replace my car hankook tyres In Dublin ?
Despite the legal limit being 1.6mm, once the tread on your tyres dips below 3mm, you may begin to experience longer braking distances. So we always advise replacing tires sooner rather than later, if your budget allows.
Generally speaking, it's not possible to change the tire on your own, so we would always recommend finding an honest and knowledgeable garage to do the work for you.
Baldoyle Auto Centre is independent, offering a wealth of local knowledge, with a common customer service ethic you can depend on. We'll recommend the perfect tires to match your car – and your budget – and fit them for you
Tips for Tyre Replacement
It is the best to replace two tires on one axle at the same time.
Only replacement of one tire or two on the same axle usually causes to unbalance the vehicle.

Little India is one of the well known places of Singapore specially people from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri-Lanka and nearby Asian countries. It importance is due to the 24 X 7 Hours open mall Mustafa Centre which offers a variety of products at very competitive price in its multi storey outlet very close to MRT Station. I have seen people travelling from all across the Singapore specially to shop from Mustafa where customers can get almost anything from over 300,000 items displayed on four levels covering an area of 400,000 Sq.ft within the six story building along Syed Alwi Road. Little India Hotels are comparatively cheaper to other places Like Orchard road but that doesn't mean the area is not good. Little India is very well maintained and well connected to other parts of Singapore through 2 MRT Stations ie Little India MRT Station and Farrer Park metro station.
There are many hotels close to the famous Little India and Mustafa Centre in a distance less than 2 miles some of these hotels offer complementary breakfast while some has an option to cook in your own Kitchenette. Facilities like Gym, Swimming Pool, Conference rooms and other things are there in most of the 4 and 5 star accommodations but you need to double check for 2 and 3 star.
- Most Budgeted place to stay near Little India is Backpackers' Inn Chinatown Singapore which is at a distance of 0.5 miles from Little India and vailable at 26 Singapore Dollars Per night stay.
- Basis the feedback from most of the travel review websites - we suggest you to book a room in Fernloft City Hostel Chinatown Singapore - the hotel is a 4 star property near Mustafa Centre at a price of SG$30 Per night stand. I am surprised to see that as this price how can a 4 star property run in a costly city like Singapore. Bus yes, thats True !
- Another one in our recommendation list right on the Robinson road - a recently constructed 5 star hotel Sofitel So Singapore just 5-10 minutes walk from Little India tube station although the cost is on a higher side ie $185 per night stand. But the luxury the hotel is offering is of international quality and unmatchable.

White House: President would sign compromise government funding bill
White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest says President Obama would sign a compromise government funding bill if it passes congress. Rough Cut (no reporter narration)
ROUGH CUT (NO REPORTER NARRATION) U.S. President Barack Obama is prepared to sign a $1.1 trillion government funding bill, the White House said on Thursday, even though the White House objects to rollbacks in Wall Street reforms and other "riders" included in the bill. The White House also said in a statement that it is disappointed that the bill will fund the Department of Homeland Security only through February 27, 2015

Twitter gets the blame for a lot of bad things, but for Dave Cormier and Bonnie Stewart of Prince Edward Island, it is a real lifesaver.
The couple was hiking with their toddler when she ate some unidentifiable berries. The couple took a photo with their cell phone and did some research into what the berries were, but were unable to find them on their own.
"Even with the picture, sometimes, it's hard to scroll through and find a positive identification," Stewart said.
Poison control was also unable to help them, so they posted a photo to Twitter (Cormier has 3,000 followers) and a few minutes later, they had their answer: the berries were poisonous.
They called 9-1-1 and their daughter recovered without treatment. Still, it makes social media seem pretty powerful, no?
Parents who use social media often get blamed for everything that happens to their child.
Last year, mommy blogger Shellie Ross of Florida was taken to task after her tweets moments before her son drowned in the family's pool showed that she was not immediately with the 2-year-old.
Critics said if she had not been twittering, her son may not have died. There are also less egregious cases where parents are blamed for neglecting their children so they can chat on Facebook or blog or e-mail with their friends. But this kind of story shows the power of social networking.
For many parents, it has become a lifeline, a place where they can chat about the trials and tribulations of parenthood and share triumphs and commiserations. Neglecting your child so you can flirt on Facebook is wrong, but using social media to expand your "village" and help you be a better parent seems like a pretty amazing thing.
Does social media help you in parenting?

Symbiodinium diversity in the sea anemone Entacmaea quadricolor on the east Australian coast
Document Type
Publication details
Pontasch, S, Scott, A, Hill, R, Bridge, T, Fisher, PL & Davy, SK 2014, 'Symbiodinium diversity in the sea anemone Entacmaea quadricolor on the east Australian coast', Coral Reefs, vol. 33, no. 2, pp. 537-542.
Published version available from:
Peer Reviewed
The diversity of Symbiodinium spp. in Entacmaea quadricolor was analysed from five locations along ~2,100 km on the east coast of Australia using denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) of the internal transcribed spacer 2 region (ITS2) combined with bacterial cloning. DGGE revealed thatE. quadricolor predominantly associated with six types of clade C (four of which are novel) and that most anemones harboured multiple types simultaneously. Anemones from southern locations associated with a mixed assemblage of C25 and a variant of C3. This assemblage also dominated the central location, but was absent at the northern location. At central and northern sites, two novel variants of C42(type2) and C1 were found. Anemones hosting C42(type2) also showed a low abundance of variants of C3 and C1, and E1 was found in one sample, as revealed by bacterial cloning. The occurrence of geographically distinct ITS2 types or a consortium of types might reflect a need to optimise physiological performance of the symbiosis at different latitudes.

What is Diabetes?
Diabetes, often referred to by doctors as diabetes mellitus, is a group of metabolic diseases in which a person has high blood glucose or blood sugar, either because insulin production is inadequate, or because the body's cells do not respond properly to insulin, or both. People with high blood sugar will typically experience frequent urination, will become both increasingly thirsty and hungry.
What are some of the complications of Diabetes?
People with diabetes have an increased risk of developing a number of serious health problems. Consistently high blood glucose levels can lead to serious diseases affecting the heart and blood vessels, eyes, kidneys, nerves and teeth. In addition, people with diabetes also have a higher risk of developing infections. In almost all high-income countries, diabetes is a leading cause of cardiovascular disease, blindness, kidney failure, andlower limb amputation.
Maintaining blood glucose levels, blood pressure, and cholesterol at or close to normal can help delay or prevent diabetes complications. Therefore people with diabetes need regular monitoring.
Cardiovascular disease: affects the heart and blood vessels and may cause fatal complications such as coronary artery disease (leading to heart attack) and stroke. Cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of death in people with diabetes. High blood pressure, high cholesterol, high blood glucose and other risk factors contribute to increasing the risk of cardiovascular complications.
Kidney disease (diabetic nephropathy): caused by damage to small blood vessels in the kidneys leading to the kidneys becoming less efficient or to fail altogether. Kidney disease is much more common in people with diabetes than in those without diabetes. Maintaining near normal levels of blood glucose and blood pressure can greatly reduce the risk of kidney disease.
Nerve disease (diabetic neuropathy): diabetes can cause damage to the nerves throughout the body when blood glucose and blood pressure are too high. This can lead to problems with digestion, erectile dysfunction, and many other functions. Among the most commonly affected areas are the extremities, in particular the feet. Nerve damage in these areas is called peripheral neuropathy, and can lead to pain, tingling, and loss of feeling. Loss of feeling is particularly important because it can allow injuries to go unnoticed, leading to serious infections and possible amputations. People with diabetes carry a risk of amputation that may be more than 25 times greater than that of people without diabetes. However, with comprehensive management, a large proportion of amputations related to diabetes can be prevented. Even when amputation takes place, the remaining leg and the person's life can be saved by good follow-up care from a multidisciplinary foot team. People with diabetes should regularly examine their feet.
Eye disease (diabetic retinopathy): most people with diabetes will develop some form of eye disease (retinopathy) causing reduced vision or blindness. Consistently high levels of blood glucose, together with high blood pressure and high cholesterol, are the main causes of retinopathy. It can be managed through regular eye checks and keeping glucose and lipid levels at or close to normal.
Pregnancy complications: Women with any type of diabetes during pregnancy risk a number of complications if they do not carefully monitor and manage their condition. To prevent possible organ damage to the fetus, women with type 1 diabetes or type 2 diabetes should achieve target glucose levels before conception. All women with diabetes during pregnancy, type 1, type 2 or gestational should strive for target blood glucose levels throughout to minimize complications. High blood glucose during pregnancy can lead to the foetus putting on excess weight. This can lead to problems in delivery, trauma to the child and mother, and a sudden drop in blood glucose for the child after birth. Children who are exposed for a long time to high blood glucose in the womb are at higher risk of developing diabetes in the future.

What types of Diabetes are there?
There are three types of diabetes:
1) Type 1 Diabetes
The body does not produce insulin. Some people may refer to this type as insulin-dependent diabetes, juvenile diabetes, or early-onset diabetes. People usually develop type 1 diabetes before their 40th year, often in early adulthood or teenage years.
Type 1 diabetes is nowhere near as common as type 2 diabetes. Approximately 10% of all diabetes cases are type 1.
Patients with type 1 diabetes will need to take insulin injections for the rest of their life. They must also ensure proper blood-glucose levels by carrying out regular blood tests and following a special diet.
Between 2001 and 2009, the prevalence of type 1 diabetes among the under 20s in the USA rose 23%, according toSEARCH for Diabetes in Youth data issued by the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention).
2) Type 2 Diabetes
The body does not produce enough insulin for proper function, or the cells in the body do not react to insulin (insulin resistance).
Approximately 90% of all cases of diabetes worldwide are of this type.
Measuring the glucose level in blood
Some people may be able to control their type 2 diabetes symptoms by losing weight, following a healthy diet, doing plenty of exercise, and monitoring their blood glucose levels. However, type 2 diabetes is typically a progressive disease - it gradually gets worse - and the patient will probably end up have to take insulin, usually in tablet form.
Overweight and obese people have a much higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes compared to those with a healthy body weight. People with a lot of visceral fat, also known as central obesity, belly fat, or abdominal obesity, are especially at risk. Being overweight/obese causes the body to release chemicals that can destabilize the body's cardiovascular and metabolic systems.
Being overweight, physically inactive and eating the wrong foods all contribute to our risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Drinking just one can of (non-diet) soda per day can raise our risk of developing type 2 diabetes by 22%, researchers from Imperial College London reported in the journal Diabetologia. The scientists believe that the impact of sugary soft drinks on diabetes risk may be a direct one, rather than simply an influence on body weight.
The risk of developing type 2 diabetes is also greater as we get older. Experts are not completely sure why, but say that as we age we tend to put on weight and become less physically active. Those with a close relative who had/had type 2 diabetes, people of Middle Eastern, African, or South Asian descent also have a higher risk of developing the disease.
Men whose testosterone levels are low have been found to have a higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Researchers from the University of Edinburgh, Scotland, say that low testosterone levels are linked to insulin resistance.
3) Gestational Diabetes
This type affects females during pregnancy. Some women have very high levels of glucose in their blood, and their bodies are unable to produce enough insulin to transport all of the glucose into their cells, resulting in progressively rising levels of glucose.
Diagnosis of gestational diabetes is made during pregnancy.
The majority of gestational diabetes patients can control their diabetes with exercise and diet. Between 10% to 20% of them will need to take some kind of blood-glucose-controlling medications. Undiagnosed or uncontrolled gestational diabetes can raise the risk of complications during childbirth. The baby may be bigger than he/she should be.
Scientists from the National Institutes of Health and Harvard University found that women whose diets before becoming pregnant were high in animal fat and cholesterol had a higher risk for gestational diabetes, compared to their counterparts whose diets were low in cholesterol and animal fats.
What are the symptoms of Diabetes?
The following symptoms of diabetes are typical. However, some people with type 2 diabetes have symptoms so mild that they go unnoticed.

The other day I was reading a copy of the Mineralogical Record, a mineral magazine (actually more like a professional journal) that is issued bimonthly and is the most authoritative and widely respected mineral collector's journal in the world; no serious advanced collector would be without it (www.minrec.org). I did notice that Wendell Wilson, the Editor-in-Chief and Publisher since ~1977, continues to publish an outstanding magazine with beautiful color photos.
My mind often goes in interesting directions and I decided to see if a mineral was named after the Editor. Sure enough, wendwilsonite was named in 1987 for a hydrated calcium magnesium arsenate (contains the AsO4 radical)—Ca2Mg(AsO4)2-2H2O. In reading descriptions of the mineral I noted it was often referred to as the "magnesium analogue of roselite." That perked my mind up since I purchased a small specimen of roselite at an estate sale about three years ago and it was filed under "Africa" in a home drawer.
|Photomicrograph of a crimson red aggregate of roselite crystals. Width FOV ~ 1 cm.
I originally purchased the specimen since the crystals were nicely formed and were gorgeous rose-red to rose-pink in color. At that time I guessed the color might be due to cobalt but was not certain. It turns out that roselite is the cobalt analogue of wendwilsonite; cobalt replaces some of the magnesium [Ca2(Co,Mg)(AsO4)2-2H2O] and thus forms a solid solution series. Any specimen rich in magnesium is wendwilsonite while the cobalt-rich specimen is roselite. But, wendwilsonite usually contains enough cobalt to give a pink color to the crystals while roselite always has some magnesium and many of the crystals are zoned, and are of a lighter shade of color with a decreasing cobalt content.
|Photomicrograph roselite crystals showing color gradation from pink to dark crimson red. Width FOV 6 mm.
Early on I also assumed that roselite was given its name due to the rose red color. Wrong! The mineral was named for Gustav Rose, a German mineralogist. But could there be some relationship between the color and the name? Only the authors know that answer.
Roselite crystals are actually quite beautiful with their color and vitreous luster. They are usually transparent grading to translucent and are fairly soft at ~3.5 (Mohs) with a red streak. The individual crystals range from tabular to prismatic, often twinned, and seem to occur in aggregates rather than individual and well defined crystals.
I find it interesting that roselite (Monoclinic Crystal System) has the same chemical formula (are therefore dimorphs) as another mineral termed beta-roselite (or β-roselite) that belongs to the Triclinic Mineral System. They have the same color and everything and I seriously doubt if I could tell the difference; however, β-roselite is a very rare mineral. The same goes for identifying a red to pink specimen of wendwilsonite!
My specimen of roselite (I have none of wendwilsonite or β-roselite) came from its most famous collecting locality, the mines of the Bou Azzer District, Morocco. The District contains over 60 ore bodies enriched with cobalt and nickel. Mining of cobalt, nickel, arsenates, gold and silver started in 1928 and in 2006 the mines produced about 8 percent of the annual world cobalt production (Hawkins, 2006). The ore bodies are associated serpentinites of a Precambrian ophiolite sequence in contact with igneous intrusions and volcanic rocks (Ahmed and others, 2009). In other words magmatic fluids from the intrusions interacted with upper mantle peridotites (olivine- and pyroxene- rich) and rocks called ophiolites that are pieces of the earth's upper mantle and ocean floor. This sequence of rocks seems to date back to the late Precambrian (700 to 600 Ma) when the plates building what is now Africa were banging into each other. Geologists know this event as the Pan-African Orogeny. In addition, these rocks were later uplifted by compressional mountain building during the late Paleozoic (Hercynian Orogeny) (Ahmed and others, 2009). So, the enrichment of primary sulfides came from hydrothermal interaction of magmatic solutions with the serpentinites.
|Photomicrograph of two nicely flattened erythrite crystal, common for the mineral. Crystal<——–> is perpendicular to camera and specimen surface while second noted crystal <——–* is parallel to specimen surface. Length of longest crystal ~5 mm.
|Photomicrograph clusters of erythrite sheaths and radial aggregates from Bou Azzer.. Note different crystal form than roselite above.
Bou Azzer also produces another beautiful cobalt-colored mineral: erythrite, a hydrated cobalt arsenate [Co3(AsO4)2-8H2O]. It also has that crimson to red to pink-violet color, is translucent to transparent, and is very soft at ~2 (Mohs). Crystals, usually striated and prismatic, are flattened and these factors, plus the softness, distinguish erythrite from roselite. However, they are found together at Bou Azzer along with a variety of other cobalt-rich minerals (cobaltite) and varieties (cobaltoan calcite; cobaltoan dolomite). Since erythrite and roselite are secondary minerals in the oxide zone they most likely oxidized from one of the primary sulfides such as cobaltite [(Co,Fe)AsS].
There is also a second variety of erythrite in the mineral world commonly known as cobalt bloom where the specimens contain cobalt as a druzy-like coating of earthy, non-crystalline material. It still has the pink to red color but is much "duller" that the nice crystals since it is sort of a weathering crust.
|Pink cobalt bloom (erythrite) on specimen from Cobalt, Ontario, Canada. Width FOV ~7 mm.
Since Bou Azzer also has abundant nickel it would be worthwhile to note that erythrite is in a complete solid solution series with annabergite—the nickel ion substitutes for cobalt ions: Ni3(AsO4)2-8(H20). Evidently there are less attractive "middle members" of the series that I have not observed. Annabergite also occurs in two forms: 1) the common druzy, dull and earthy weathering crust callednickel bloom; and 2) very nice apple green, translucent to transparent, vitreous crystals. The crystals are either the flattened blades like erythrite, or acicular masses, often in radial aggregates. My specimen of annabergite does not come from Bou Azzer but from the Lavrion District in Greece and contains both cobalt bloom and a mass of tiny acicular crystals.
|Green nickel bloom (NB; annabergite) and massive tiny, apple-green crystals of annabergite (A). Width FOV ~ 5 mm.
Erythrite is also the cobalt analogue (isostructural; same structure but different chemistry), and annabergite is the nickel analogue, of the rare hydrated arsenates kottigite (zinc), parasymplesite (Fe), and hornsite (Mg).
I have a third specimen of erythrite collected from near "Cobalt, Canada," one of those old prolific mining areas in Ontario. Regardless of its name, silver was the major metallic commodity with production starting in the early 1900s and ceasing in the 1930s. At one time the Cobalt District mines were the world's largest producer of silver and total production over the years totaled nearly a thousand tons. The silver was associated with nickel and arsenic minerals like skutterudite and very little of these toxic elements were removed from the landscape; there are a host of environmental problems today.
I was unable to locate exact production figures of cobalt and nickel for the Cobalt District; however, Young and Perrone (2013) noted that "small high-grade deposits of nickel-cobalt arsenides furnish significant quantities of cobalt. Arsenide ores from Cobalt, Ontario, gave Canada world leadership in production for the period 1905-25. Cobalt output from this area stopped in 1971 but was reactivated in 1995 as a primary production…Canada produced 2013 t of cobalt as recoverable metal…in 2000."
|Specimen collected from Cobalt, Ontario, Canada, with pink cobalt bloom (C), skutterudite (S), arsenic-deficient skutterudite (Sm "smaltite"), and ?annabergite (A). Width FOV ~2.2 cm.
My specimen has small areas of cobalt bloom along with several "globs" of skutterudite (cobalt iron nickel arsenide; see Post April 21, 2013) and an old label noting the presence of "smaltite an arsenic-deficient skutterudite." At once time smaltite was recognized as a distinct mineral that was lighter in color, more tin white in color, than skutterudite. However, smaltite is now considered as a variety of skutterudite.
|Photomicrograph green to clear lathes of ?annabergite from specimen noted above. Width FOV ~ 9 mm.
The Canadian specimen also exhibits several slender lathes and sprays that have a green to light green to almost clear color. My wild guess is that they are lathes of annabergite!

HEALING POWER: Princeton University track star Mark Amirault powers to the finish line in a race during his Tiger running career. After dealing with injury woes that sidelined him as a freshman and slowed his progress as a sophomore, Amirault emerged as a standout. The Walpole, Mass. native won two titles at the Indoor Ivy League Heptagonal Championships and three at the Outdoor Heps. He also anchored the 4xMile relay team which won the Championship of America at this years Penn Relays. Last weekend, he finished his Princeton career by taking 12th in the 5,000 at the NCAA championship meet to earn second-team All American status.
Based on his high school resume, it looked like Mark Amirault would be a star distance runner from the day he arrived at Princeton University in 2007.
Matt Grabowski didnt have a defined role on the pitching staff for the Princeton University baseball team this spring and that suited him fine.
While the Princeton High softball team was fired up to make its second straight state tournament appearance, the lead-up to its first round game at Holmdel was less than ideal.
Cheryl Wolf made quite a change in 1997 when she took over as the Athletics Director at the Stuart Country Day School after coaching lacrosse and field hockey the previous 21 years at Cornell University.
Its name has been shortened but the team will again cast a long shadow over the Princeton Recreation Department Summer Mens Basketball League.

Good news for formula-feeding moms. On Tuesday, the Food and Drug Administration finalized new health regulations for baby formula. The regulations, which began in February with a temporary plan, now require manufacturers of infant formula to test for dangerous bacteria, such as salmonella and cronobacter, and prove that their formula contains the proper amount of nutrients babies require for normal growth -- both before their formula hits the shelves and before they expire. (The new rules only apply to formulas that are intended for healthy babies who aren't in need of specific food due to health or dietary issues.)
Sounds good to me! It's a little surprising that these regulations weren't in effect up until this point, but it's certainly a step in the right direction to helping formula-feeding mamas feel comfortable with what they're giving their babies.
We all know that breast is best, but the reality is exclusive breastfeeding just isn't an option for every mother. Whether it's because they work incredibly long hours or tried to nurse to no avail, some moms have to give their children formula. And typically, this isn't done without some level of guilt from mothers -- particularly if they tried to nurse. Knowing that the FDA is ensuring the safety of formula, which is a perfectly healthy alternative to breast milk, can at least help moms feel a little more comfortable with their decision.
More from The Stir: 10 Things Never to Say to a Formula-Feeding Mom
Few things are easy and without guilt when it comes to parenting, so it's always comforting when we hear that something has been made safer for our little ones. Glad to hear these changes have been made, and hopefully a few formula-feeding mamas will rest a little easier tonight.
Does this make you feel better about feeding your baby formula?

Something Was Missing – by Dene Nidiffer
We had no idea that we'd be one of the statistics of couples who could not conceive, carry and raise a biological child. As a non-Christian I had been feeling specific nudges and that something was missing from my life, having no idea that it was God showing me that he was there for me…for us, with a lesson. We began to go to church. This was the first time that I had attended church regularly. It felt good, right, appropriate and seemed to help me "feel better" about the experiences I was having specific to conceiving a baby. Sort of the way you might expect it would feel in our legalist view of God.
As this story goes…ten years into our marriage, thousands of dollars spent and many tumultuous experiences proved to be a success for us finally when we became pregnant with our first child. At first, we didn't know we were pregnant. A fertility specialist visit revealed we in fact were; however, it didn't appear that this pregnancy would be sustainable. I was told to go home, rest and take it easy to see just what would happen with the pregnancy. I vividly remember lying on my bed; feeling exhausted mentally, devastatingly worried. The result was a miscarriage two days later. I was angry! I was sad! I felt betrayed…after all I was finally turning to God. Why had He let this happen to me? Why did I not feel loved by Him? Why was I finding it hard to love?
Many months later, after other failed attempts, we decided together that we would no longer pursue fertility treatment of any kind and that we'd pursue adoption. Growing in our spiritual life, still due to God's nudging and need for what was missing, we became at peace with our decision and began the adoption process. This story is no different than many who are put through a round of a billion questions, or so it feels, are "checked out" in every imaginable way, and are asked to consider some very difficult questions about what "kind" of baby you are willing to accept. In June 2000, it happened, a birth mother chose us! Our second child, a daughter, was born! We drove to Lafayette to meet the birth mother and our baby to hold her, name her and bring her home! God's plan was different, it didn't happen like that at all – the birth mother decided that she'd keep her baby.
After unbelievable depression, disbelief and generally giving up, we had made the decision that we'd not become parents and that God didn't want that to happen for us – still having no idea why, but choosing to remain faithful to Him. Just as we'd considered removing ourselves from the pool of potential parents, we received a call on August 30, 2000 telling us that a birth mother wanted to allow us to parent her unborn child and that she was to be born that afternoon by c-section. We'd go to love the baby and when this birth mother decided to keep her baby, too, then at least we'd been there for her child during the first 48 hours of her life. After all, God would want us to do so and had prepared us for just such an event. God's plan was different, it didn't happen like that at all – the birth mother decided that we'd keep her baby!
God revealed for me and David that the "something that was missing" was the true recognition of what His love truly feels like as well as what it feels like to mirror His love to this child! We experienced, first hand, loving others in the way God intends. We continue to praise God for showing us this through our third child and daughter, Delaney!

It's been a year with plenty of fun, with some classic games released that we won't soon forget about, and plenty of fun stuff happening around the world beyond games.
Christmas is a time for family, friends, and a chance to give the brain a rest, so in keeping with that tradition, DDNet and the whole team will be taking a short break. We'll be back on January 4, don't you worry about that! In the meantime, feel free to jump in and share your Christmas stories! Did you pick up any great new games? Did you drink too much eggnog and accidentally fall through your TV playing Just Dance? There's always someone that has a crazy Christmas like that.
Or, even better, did Santa Miku deliver you some awesome Miku goods? Because if you did you got lucky. Share your Mikus with us all!
But seriously, thank you again for being readers through this year. We do, after all, exist because of you, and we look forward to seeing you all in the New Year.

A MAN OF INDETERMINATE VALUE, the first novel in the Jack Madson trilogy, exposes American corporate greed and shortsightedness.
A MAN OF INDETERMINATE VALUE, the first novel in the Jack Madson trilogy, exposes American corporate greed and shortsightedness. In a world plagued by corrupt corporations and sinister forces that prowl the global landscape, Jack Madson needs to escape his own demons. Trapped in a hate-filled marriage, a job he despises, and a mountain of debt, he's crafted a plan. He'll fake his own death – simultaneously winning a large insurance payout for his family and paving the way for his getaway to Mexico. There, he'll create a new life with the money he has been amassing from illegally selling intellectual property to criminal interests in China.
But Madson's plan goes dangerously wrong in this new thriller. The $2.5 million that he socks away in a secret Mexican bank account becomes Madson's escape route from all that has come to symbolize his miserable life. But when he finally arrives south-of-the-border, he learns that he's been double-crossed by his partner in crime – and his bank account is empty. Madson has no choice but to return to the States and make a last ditch effort to double his ill-begotten payoff. The hitch? He must break into the computer system at NuGen to retrieve highly valuable bio-tech secrets. As bodies pile up, Madson struggles to stay one step ahead of the laser-focused insurance claims investigator who is determined to prove that his "accidental death" is anything but. This modern day anti-hero's choices increasingly begin to resemble those of yesteryear's outlaws.

Conflict between generations is about as predictable as aging itself. In my family, my 88-year-old grandfather still disagrees with my aunt's enthusiasm for the Beatles, an argument that's brewed with the same intensity since the 1960s.
The workplace is no exception to the friction. But today, as some industries face a drastic shortfall in qualified workers, the Old Guard is showing signs of being less resistant to the rising generation--at least to a point.
Last month in New York, Ami Kaplan, the Northeast deputy managing partner for Deloitte & Touche USA LLP, made a presentation in which she shared some reactions of company executives to today's young hires.
One said: "What do we do with these kids? They think they're going to be CEO next week!"
Another remarked: "We're actively harnessing the power of generational change."
Two different perspectives, one workplace. Learning to appreciate both may be the best way to transcend the generational divide and win your boss' favor.
-- The new work environment
It used to be that you got a job and gave your all to a company, working long hours and deferring to the corporate hierarchy in order to get ahead.
Today's entry-level workers--members of Generation Y, or those born between 1977 and 1994--are less concerned with the company's benefit and more interested in personal development, many employers say.
"The difference is the older generation says, `You're the CEO; I respect you,' " Kaplan said. "The younger generation says, `You're the CEO; what have you done for me lately?' "
Gen Y wants meaningful work assignments, a greater sense of purpose in their job and a healthy balance between work and their personal life, Kaplan said.
And though it might sound a little cocky on the part of a 20-something employee, many companies, worried about filling the seats of retiring Baby Boomers, are trying to adjust.
At Deloitte, for example, young hires are encouraged to speak up and contribute in meetings that routinely include senior-level executives. And the firm's internal Web page looks more like a social networking site: You can create a blog, sign up to make a movie about your experience at Deloitte and network with co-workers interested in similar hobbies.
-- Some things don't change
This new workplace offers more opportunities than ever for a young worker. But keep in mind that the transition isn't always seamless and that some rules have not changed.
A survey this year by the Collegiate Employment Research Institute at Michigan State University found that employers say they frequently discipline new hires for a lack of work ethic or commitment, unethical behavior, failure to follow instructions and a failure to take initiative.
"Young people are coming into work asking, `What's in it for me?' " said Phil Gardner, director of CERI. "Companies are trying to help them recognize that it's a win-win situation for both."
Push the boundaries too far and you could find that you get passed over for promotions or, eventually, shown the door. -- Taking the initiative
A good compromise actually blends the best of what both you and your employer want.
According to the CERI study, new hires who show a willingness to take initiative--work hard, express enthusiasm and take on any opportunity that comes available--are more likely to get promoted.
"That quality just stands out so far above all the things the employers look for," Gardner said.
Not that employers doubt your work ethic or abilities: Why else would they go out of their way to set up blogs and social networks on the company Web site?
But said Gardner: "If you're not committed, at least during your 40 hours, then it's not worth a company's time to go to all the trouble of training you."

What do you do?
Kelly McCarty
Where do you work and what is your title?
I am the co-owner of Aspenwood Veterinary Hospital, where we provide medical and surgical care for dogs and cats.
What do you do there and/or what are you responsible for?
As the primary veterinarian, I am responsible for diagnosing and treating disease conditions as well as immunizing and providing wellness/ preventative care. I also do numerous dental and surgical procedures which include spays and neuters.
How long have you been doing this kind of work (total)? How long on the Westside?
I graduated from the University of Georgia (veterinary school) in 2009 and first worked in Texas at a small-animal clinic. My husband Cody and I moved to Colorado Springs in June 2011 and purchased this business that July. (He is a boarded veterinary radiologist who consults in Colorado Springs.)
What do you like best about it (other than quitting time)?
There are so many things I love about my job! I love that this profession allows me to interact with both people and animals. There is a special bond between people (owners) and their pets and it's a privilege to be a part of that bond on a daily basis. Also, I have an amazing staff who make it a pleasure to come to work everyday.
If you could change one thing (other than pay), what would it be?
The amount of abuse and neglect that we see on a daily basis. We work extensively with non-profit rescue agencies in Colorado Springs and unfortunately see many types of abuse, including physical abuse, starvation, and medical neglect. There are so many amazing volunteers and veterinarians trying to assist these animals, but there are so many more that need help and it is heartbreaking.
What part of your work did your training/education never prepare you for?
In veterinary school we are taught how to diagnose and treat diseases but there was not a lot of emphasis on communicating those thoughts to owners. It is vital to have strong communication skills so owners understand and feel comfortable with what you are doing and why you feel it is necessary for their pet.
What makes working on the Westside special?
The Westside has such a special sense of community that I have not been a part of before. I love seeing my clients and their pets outside of work and having that sense of connection.
"What do you do?" is a regular feature in the Westside Pioneer. If you know someone who has an interesting job on the Westside (but doesn't live here), he/she might be a candidate for this column! If you know someone who might qualify, give us a call at 471-6776.

Why Do Women Want a Breast Enhancement?
So many women these days are so conscious about their appearances, and would love to enhance themselves in many possible ways. One can simply point the finger on the media; merely because it has influenced everyone to actually do all they can just to appear attractive. Physical beauty has certainly become a priority among people in the world, and while this may seem like a sad thing, it also allows a person to improve themselves. For women, one of the most common concerns is having a bigger pair of breasts.
A woman would want to feel desirable, and she simply cannot have that if she's got an A-cup just like her little brother. They'd like to fill out their bras more appropriately, and sometimes breast enhancement may be the only solution to this. A number of ladies would seek out such services on the internet and try to get a hold of the best available surgeon. However, in order to understand the increasing popularity of cosmetic procedures on a woman's breasts, it would be important to know what their reasons are for going under the knife. Below are just a few of those reasons.
1. There are a lot of women who are mothers. After they've given child birth, their physiques may not look the same. Of course, a bit of exercise can help in getting them back into proper shape. However, some women's breasts continue to sag. Pregnancy can truly take a toll on a woman's breasts, especially with breast feeding. They would like to reacquire the same firmness and tone they once had before they had kids.
2. Some women are looking to increase the size of their breasts. There's nothing more frustrating to see the rest of her friends possessing ample bosoms while she has an A-cup. She would want to fill her bra out and fit in all those nice clothes properly. If they have the opportunity to have bigger breasts, they will surely grab it just to feel good about themselves.
3. There are also some women who feel that their breasts are too big. Huge breast size can often take a toll on a woman's physical function, especially when they seem to be quite heavy, and may even lead to body pains. Breast reduction surgery is the answer to this concern.
4. Another major reason is due to body symmetry. There are some women out there who don't think their bodies are well proportioned for some reason. They may think that one breast is bigger than the other, and would want to make them equal in size. Cosmetic procedures can rectify this problem.
5. There is also the matter of women wanting to please their men. In fact, there are some people who think that having nice bodies can truly lead to a great time during intimate acts in the bedroom. They would want to not only look good in bed, but also provide their partners a great deal of satisfaction.
These are reasons why women would want to undergo breast enhancement procedures. However, they don't always have to go under the knife; there are some natural & herbal treatments for this, as well as the traditional exercise and dieting to consider.

Sanford case highlights record keeping issues
Records of S.C. officials and agencies are available to the public, right?
State and local governments have applied patchwork standards to preserving records, e-mails and other documents. In some cases, those governments have ignored guidelines set out by state archivists.
In other cases, public officials have defied the law.
The issue came to light during this summer's scrutiny of Gov. Mark Sanford's travel and campaign records. Questions about Sanford's activities led to scrutiny of past administrations and lawmakers.
Reporters and attorneys digging through state archives found that many records no longer existed. The S.C. Department of Archives and History recommends which records should be preserved. But director Eric Emerson said his agency does not have the staff to make sure state agencies are complying with the rules.
Among the public records that public officials said were no longer available:
- E-mails - Gov. Sanford's office provided thousands of pages of e-mails to reporters after his June trip to Argentina. But Sanford's office refused to comply with a Freedom of Information request, saying staff members no longer worked for his office and their e-mails were not preserved. In one case, the staffer still was working for Sanford when the request was submitted.
- Aircraft data - The S.C. Division of Aeronautics said it destroys records detailing use of state-owned aircraft after three years. As a result, it was difficult to compare past administrations' use of the aircraft after Sanford's use was questioned.
- Financial data - Records detailing how past administrations used a special Commerce Department account - funded by contributions from private companies - were unavailable. Such funds have drawn criticism from state auditors in the past.
Archives Department head Emerson said state agencies largely are responsible for what is and is not preserved.

2016 Update! NorQuin Quick Quinoa Powder is back …
The gluten-free market is like a breeding ground for foodie inventions. Specialty flours, gluten replacements … really, even famous chefs have taken to experimenting with gluten-free products to add new textures and flavors to their recipes. Yet, some never cease to amaze me; one being the Quick Quinoa Powder from NorQuin. Quinoa flour I have heard of, but an instant powder? Now that is interesting.
Of course, such a unique new product needs some introduction as to how to use it. So the folks at NorQuin set out to invent some recipes: Quinoa Granola, Instant Quinoa Chocolate Milk, Quinoa Fruit Shake, Quinoa Flax Flatbread, and Creamy Quinoa Tomato Soup rounded out the gluten-free group. This is definitely a fun product to experiment with, and it has a very fine texture that dissolves nicely, though not always completely. The flavor is fairly neutral, making for a product that can be used in both sweet and savory applications.

Just to recap very briefly:
1-Went to a talk on Updates from DC. Lots of interesting information about changes going on in Congress and policies. Most of this dealt with K-12 but also a bit on adult ed and LOTS of talk about the budget — budget cuts. Republican agenda to fix the deficit but make gov smaller. And rather than cutting from the war or domestic expenses like Social Security, they are cutting the small stuff (mostly in education) that in the end doesn't help with fixing the deficit. A bit depressing but some stuff were left untouched and interesting advice about inviting our Rep's to our program to do a walk through. Apparently our Rep's like the first hand experience. You can go here to find your local District office by putting in your zip code and they will schedule the congressional member to pay a visit to your school. The PowerPoint can be found here if you just type in 2011 TESOL.
2-Stopped in on a talk about summarizing and paraphrasing. Left a little early to go to ……..
3-Panel discussion on Second Language Accent and Ethics. This panel was made up of a Canadian, Australian, "nerdy" American, and Korean. Very interesting discussion on judgments and stereotypes, and learner perception bias. This is similar to my interest in teacher perception. Also very interesting point about speech equaling accent+comprehensibility+intelligibility, with accent being independent from the other two. Thus, even a person with an "accent" (who doesn't have one?) can be comprehensible and intelligible. So lay off the accent discrimination!
4-Visited a fellow PhD friend from Davis and her talk on NNEST and their identity development. After that, went to my professor, Julia Menard-Warwick's talk on her continuing research with Chilean English teacher identity and ideology. She used some of the transcriptions/coding I had done for her yay~ But again, a focus on the "importance" of English and a discussion on the applicability of English on the lives of these Chilean high school students. Will English REALLY help them get better jobs and become more "worldly"?
5-Went to the President's Reception with my Davis peeps– Li-fen Lin and Paul McPherron. Good food, good music, good parade, and good people 🙂
Took Li-fen to the French Quarter (again!) and I actually bought something. I feel guilty, sigh.
Muy cansada. 想睡覺可是得要洗澡。 one more day and we leave nice weather 😦
Looking forward to Nero tomorrow . Woohoo~

Congrats to Mary Anne, our winner of yesterday's giveaway! We asked about your favorite ways to customize your sewing projects. Here's what Mary Anne had to say: "Embellishment is the way I go. I'm a crazy quilter at heart so embellishing things comes naturally. Buttons, embroidery, old jewelry – just whatever works with the particular project." Thanks to everyone for participating!
Do you enjoy sewing toys and/or softies? I find that they're a fun way to use small scraps of fabric and trim from my stash. I also appreciate that they're quick to make, so it's not another project that gets added to my growing pile of UFOs (unfinished objects)! So today we're giving away the awesome book Fanciful Felties from MummySam: Sew People to Meet, Places to Go & Things to Do by Samantha Cotterill (Stash Books). To enter, simply answer this question in the comments section below: "How many UFOs do you have?" We'll announce the winner and the Day 8 giveaway tomorrow!

The February 21, 2011 Edition of RAW is a Professional wrestling television show of the WWE's RAW brand, which took place on February 21, 2011 at Save Mart Center in Fresno, California. This is the episode that for many weeks it was advertised that The Undertaker would make his return, the night after Elimination Chamber.
John Cena was riding high. The Cenation Commander-in-Chief had prevailed in the Elimination Chamber the night before to become the No. 1 contender for the WWE Championship at WrestleMania. He shared the news, and his excitement, with the WWE Universe before addressing disparaging comments made about him by The Rock one week earlier. Cena went old school, dusting off his doctorate in Thuganomics to diss The Great One in no uncertain terms.
With both Superstars battered by their experience inside Satan's Structure the night before, CM Punk faced off against John Morrison. Although The Shaman of Sexy appeared determined to carry on, an injury to his knee suffered the night before prevented him. The shrewd Second City Savior capitalized and pinned his opponent after hitting him with a GTS.
Punk then took the mic and warned rival Randy Orton to keep his distance. Rather than follow Punk's advice, The Viper instead attacked the holier-than-thou Superstar.
Twenty four hours after Alberto Del Rio defeated him in a non-title match at WWE Elimination Chamber, Intercontinental Champion Kofi Kingston couldn't wait for retaliation. Before the bell even rang, The Dreadlocked Dynamo pummeled the Mexican elitist. As Kofi rained down blows, Del Rio's personal ring announcer, Ricardo Rodriguez, punched him from behind. The distraction allowed Del Rio the upper hand until referees could step in and halt the ruthless assault.
After initiating a hair-pulling, nail-gouging, locker room brawl last week, Brie & Nikki Bella drew their targets into more familiar territory. The twins met Divas Champion Eve & Gail Kim inside the squared circle. Unfortunately for Eve and Gail, the Bellas employed underhanded tactics once again when they utilized Twin Magic to notch a victory.
After several long weeks, the WWE Universe finally discovered the meaning behind the cryptic "2.21.11" signs. Both The Undertaker and Triple H emerged from months of recuperation to stun everyone. The two goliath Superstars said not a word when they stood toe-to-toe in the center of the ring. Instead, they each acknowledged the WrestleMania sign hanging in the arena and appeared to offer a tacit agreement to face off on The Grandest Stage of Them All on April 3 in Atlanta. Let the battle begin!
After his match with Mark Henry, King Sheamus' pale complexion quickly burned to a shade of dark red. The Celtic Warrior's losing streak continued when The World's Strongest Man punished him with a series of heavy blows before pinning him to the canvas. Has the Irishman's luck finally run out?
After his loss the night before to WWE Champion The Miz, Jerry "The King" Lawler was in no mood for Michael Cole's condescending remarks. During an interview, the Miz sycophant insulted Lawler, prompting the WWE Hall of Famer to challenge Cole to a match at WrestleMania. Rather than accept, the weasely wisecracker darted into the crowd to get away.
Monday Night Raw has witnessed its share of odd couples. Not least of which, the Superstars who will battle at WrestleMania for the WWE Title: The Miz & John Cena.
The duo was paired by the anonymous Raw GM to face WWE Tag Team Champions The Corre, specifically Justin Gabriel & Heath Slater. Despite their animosity for each other, The WWE Champion & The Cenation Commander-in-Chief actually proved victorious and captured the championships - however briefly.
In the quickest WWE Tag Team Championship reign in history, the odd pairing of The Miz & John Cena dropped their short-lived titles when the WWE Champion stabbed his partner squarely in the back.
The end of Miz & Cena's brief reign began when, immediately following their title win, Justin Gabriel & Heath Slater invoked their rematch clause. With their colleagues in The Corre looking on, Gabriel & Slater put forth a respectable effort in order to win back the titles. Just when it appeared the result would be the same, however, The Cleveland Screamer betrayed The Cenation Commander-in-Chief. He leveled his partner and WrestleMania opponent with a Skull Crushing Finale as the referee was distracted, costing the pair the WWE Tag Team Titles.

The Olympics season wraps up this weekend with another record haul of gold medals for Great Britain the stupendous Paralympics Games in Rio. Already the TV shows a packed with interviewed quizzing the athletes on the secrets to their success. And a recurring (albeit underlying) theme will be …Leadership and Management.
A fine illustration of the role Leadership and Management plays comes from Mike Pegg, himself a professional coach. Mike often starts his coaching engagements with exploring the "Picture of Perfection", but I particularly appreciate his story of Peter Vidmar ("5 Tips for Enabling Peak Performance in the Workplace Using Proven Olympic Coaching Technique"), 1984 Olympic Gold Medalist, who articulated the path to perfection in his world…
- "Looking back at how his event was scored in those days, he describes the steps people took to score the Perfect 10, which was first achieved by Nadia Comaneci in Montreal. Firstly, they must achieve the Olympic standard of technical competence. This often took years of dedication and would give them the 9.4. They could then add 0.2 by taking a risk; 0.2 by demonstrating originality – something that had never been done before; and 0.2 by showing virtuosity – flair. Such a brilliant performance would produce the Perfect 10 and, hopefully, the Olympic Gold."
I like this numerical model because of how much weight it puts on "Management". I have often decried people who dismiss "Management" in favour of "Leadership" obsession. I think this model appropriate frames Malcolm Gladwell's famous "10,000 Hours". Yes (barring some prodigy-like outlier bestowal of assets), 10,000 hours might be required for world-class excellence, but it is not a guarantee of ultimate success to dreams of medals, championships, fame and fortune. Instead it is the table-stakes entry-fee for having a shot at the big prize.
But this model doesn't trivialise "Leadership". The difference between an Olympic athlete with and without "Leadership" (ie. the 0.6 points) is the difference between medalling and obscurity. The other element I appreciate about this piece is that the "0.2" for "Risk" could also be re-dubbed "Luck".
Leaders find the 0.6 of original, risk-taking virtuosity, Managers secure the 9.4 standard of excellence.

If you haven't tried growing vegetables, you should. If you have, then you've expeienced the joy and satifaction of eating something from you garden.
Recently "eating local" has become the thing to do. Puchasing locally grown produce supports the local farmers and economy. Once they are picked, nutrients in vegetables diminsh over time, so the sooner you eat it, the better it is for you. It doesn't get more local than your own backyard.
Growing vegetables can be easy and it can be hard. Weather, pests, and diseases often get in the way of perfect veggies. But with a little knowledge and some consistent tending to your garden you can be succesful.
Visit our Veggie Page for a list of vegetable and varieties that work well in Collin County.

I was HEARTBROKEN when I discovered that they cancelled, Sense8. Thus, when I found out that they would be returning to create a finale, I was ecstatic.
This is by FAR one of the most original and intricate shows in terms of sexuality and sexual relationships. I applaud the show, the actors and actresses, the writers, really anyone and everyone who helped make this show a reality because we needed to see more LGBTQA+ representation in the media. Personally, I think movies and tv shows are the way that minorities can be represented authentically and uniquely.
The notion of radical empathy is one that often comes up when discussing shows and movies such as Matrix, Cloud Altas, 13 Reasons Why, The End of the Fucking World, or Sense8. Radical empathy can be defined in many ways, but in it's purest form radical empathy is an attempt to empathize with someone who is completely different from you. The way that artists go about portraying radical empathy is completely up to them. For instance, in 13 Reasons Why, the graphic sodomization scene is brutal and hard to watch, BUT it's hard to not empathize with Tyler and feel his pain.
It's almost impossible to stop empathizing with him, even when he makes the choice to commit a school shooting. In either case, radical empathy is effective and is the new wave to show the audience life in someone else's point of view.
What's a better expression of radical empathy than an exploration of how everybody deserves pleasure, in whatever form they can find it? In a very real sense, all eight of these people are each other, in a way that ignores gender or race or other societal constructs that divide people into neat categories.
By ending Sense8 in their EPIC orgy, they yet again show the importance of accepting each other in all form no matter their gender, beliefs, religion, sexuality, or relationships. They illustrate all forms of love and suggest with their finale orgy scene that the best way to heal the world is through love.
It isn't about beating any one bad guy, or any one awful ideology, but, rather, to find better ways to care for each other, to love each other, and, yes, to make each other feel really good. Naive or Hopeful? You decide.

When it comes to trivia, we are pretty easy to please. Still, there are a few things that we feel really make for a stellar Chicago trivia night experience: cheap food, PBR (the bigger, the better), beer machines (see previous), and DJ Mike. You'd think, then, that Full Shilling would rank above and beyond any other trivia night in the city. As much as we hate to say it, Full Shilling trivia did not exactly meet expectations this time around.
The highlight of Full Shilling trivia is DJ Mike, the host of at least 3 Quizzo trivia nights a week in Chicagoland. He is a trivia nerd, in the best possible way. He brings his own DJ equipment and hooks it up to the bar's audio setup himself. He brings a clip-on lamp and reading glasses to facilitate grading in a bar environment. He's on Facebook — friend him and you might get a holiday greeting on your wall! (Word of advice: don't friend him without writing a note; he will reject you.) He's got a great memory: he remembered us from our Kim Jong allegedly Ill days, back in September. But the Best part about DJ Mike is, he is an actual DJ. He and his brother ("CD DJ's") perform at weddings and school dances.
Also, according to his MySpace, he likes women with long beautiful hair.
The Tuesday night before Thanksgiving, traffic to Wrigleyville was terrible, but parking was plentiful. We arrived at 7:25pm to an almost empty bar. Eventually nine teams and DJ Mike made it in by around 8:15pm. Trivia is supposed to start at 8, but the first question wasn't read until almost 8:45pm. As a result, we played until close to midnight. At least he apologized.
Full Shilling trivia ranges from medium to difficult, with a pretty consistently difficult picture round. There are 7 rounds: general knowledge, picture round (this week, celebrity mug shots), sports, music, geography/history, entertainment, and a double-point general knowledge bonus round. In Quizzo, you also get to "Joker" a round with which you feel particularly confident and make it worth double points. (Another DJ Mike tip: you have to put an X in the Joker box. Not a check, not a smiley face, DJ Mike is very serious about this.) DJ Mike also picks another round in which the team with the most correct answers gets beer logo mugs or other bar paraphernalia. Team "Whatever You Want", made up of a few of the Full Shilling waitresses, tied with another team for the mugs, but generously gave the prize to the other team. The overall winners get a $50 gift certificate to Full Shilling.
There is a significant amount of downtime between rounds, but we can mostly forgive that because we know DJ Mike is busily grading (and probably double-checking). The final question is always a list of 10 (e.g., AFI's 10 Best courtroom dramas, the top 10 grossing animated movies) — a great opportunity to make up lost points and also the best time to work together as a team.
Food and drink are pretty cheap. Tuesday night specials are half-price appetizers (with beverage purchase), $12 domestic beer machines (they call them "table tappers"), $3.50 Bacardi or Jameson cocktails, and $3 Dos Equis drafts. Also, 24 oz. cans of PBR for $6. Every day! You can't go wrong with a beer machine filled with 100 ounces of PBR (aka Gigantic PBR) followed by a Giant PBR chaser. Food's decent, too. Plus: free popcorn!
Due to extenuating circumstances (Thanksgiving week), we won't render a final verdict this time. We will say: Good trivia, great PBR options, we heart DJ Mike. We'll be back.
