Just one after pitchers and catchers reported to Spring Training, the Seattle Mariners got bad news on the injury front.
Projected starting first baseman Ryon Healy underwent surgery to remove a bone spur in his right hand. The club expects Healy to be ready for game action within four to six weeks.
While losing Healy on day-one of Spring Training is not optimal, it is not a catastrophic either — at least not yet. Assuming the 26-year-old has no post-surgery complications or rehab setbacks, he could be ready for the season opener on March 29 or shortly thereafter.
Still, losing one of their team's biggest offseason acquisitions is certain to cause a crisis of confidence within the Mariners' playoff-starved fan base. Especially after starting pitcher Drew Smyly was lost for the season during Cactus League play just one year ago.
It is highly unlikely Healy suffers a similar fate to Smyly's. But let us assume something does go awry and his return is delayed. What are the Mariners' options?
The Insiders
Seattle has two first baseman with Triple-A success and little left to prove in the minors, plus an assortment of position players with limited experience at the position.
Mike Ford
Seattle acquired the left-handed hitter from the New York Yankees via the Rule 5 draft. As a result, he must remain on the major league roster for the entire 2018 season. Otherwise, the Mariners must offer him back to New York for $25 thousand.
Ford proved to be a productive hitter during stops at Class-AA Trenton and Class-AAA Scranton/Wilkes-Barre last year. Overall, the 25-year hit 20 home runs and slashed .270/.404/.471.
It is worth noting Ford had more walks (94) than strikeouts (72) last season. The only major leaguers to accomplish that feat were Joey Votto, Mike Trout, Justin Turner, Anthony Rendon, and Anthony Rizzo.
While Ford could be the Opening Day option, how he would fit with Seattle after Healy's return is uncertain. The Princeton University alum has only played first base and designated hitter during five minor league seasons with the exception of 57 innings at third base.
With Seattle likely to carry eight relievers, Ford's lack of positional versatility could make him the odd man out during a roster squeeze.
Dan Vogelbach
A year ago, the 25-year-old arrived at the Peoria Sports Complex with a decent chance of being the left-handed side of a platoon with veteran Danny Valencia. Unfortunately, Vogelbach's defensive deficiencies prompted the Mariners to assign him to Class-AAA Tacoma prior to the beginning of the season.
With the Rainiers, Vogelbach had a strong offensive showing with 17 home runs, 25 doubles, and a .290/.388/.455 slash line. Having said that, general manager Jerry Dipoto chose to bypass the former second round pick and trade for a rental player — Yonder Alonso — to upgrade the first base position last August.
Recently, Seattle Times beat writer Ryan Divish noted during the Extra Innings podcast Vogelbach appears much looser away from the big league stage. If true, that must change quickly for the native Floridian to stick with the Mariners.
Perhaps, Vogelbach seizes the moment and proves he belongs in the majors with Seattle or another ball club.
The Field
The fact both Ford and Vogelbach play just one defensive position means only one could simultaneously make Seattle's 25-man roster. That said; the club could utilize more versatile roster options to spot either rookie, when needed.
Ben Gamel spent time taking grounders at first base during batting practice last year and has expressed interest in expanding his positional portfolio.
Gamel played just one inning at first base last year and has no minor league experience. Nevertheless, the 25-year-old could backup at the position and potentially take on larger short-term role, assuming Ford and Vogelbach falter.
Offseason acquisition Andrew Romine has nearly 200 innings of experience and 13 starts at first base. His completion for the utility spot — Taylor Motter — started nine games there last year. It is worth noting both players are considered light hitting.
Minor league catcher David Freitas has 410 innings of first base time, but he would have to win the backup job behind Mike Zunino. Even if that were to occur, playing a reserve catcher at first base sounds like an emergency move; not a strategy the Mariners will employ.
Waiver claim Cam Perkins has a small amount of first base experience too. But a more likely scenario leading to Perkins making the team would be the right-handed hitter replacing Guillermo Heredia, who is recovering from offseason shoulder surgery.
And no, I do not envision a scenario where Nelson Cruz becomes a major league first baseman for the first time at 37-years-old.
The Outsiders
Even if Healy's went completely sideways, it is doubtful Dipoto pursues notable free agents Logan Morrison, Lucas Duda, and Eric Hosmer. The 49-year-old GM opted to trade for Healy rather than commit multiple years and significant dollars to a proven free agent. An abrupt change of course now is unfathomable.
Having said that, it is plausible the Mariners add a veteran on a minor league deal as insurance. Valencia, Adam Lind, Mike Napoli, and Mike Reynolds remain on the market.
As always, Dipoto could trade for a more established first baseman later in Spring Training. Perhaps, a team will have a surplus at the position or need to move a player with no minor league options remaining.
Reality Check
The most likely scenario is the Mariners continue with their current cadre of first baseman — at least for now. Adding a player on a minor league deal or making a small trade seems logical, but expending significant resources to address a short-term problem is not Dipoto-like.
For those anxious about today's bad Healy news, I have a suggestion — relax.
Yes, losing an important player on February 15 is frustrating, especially for a fan base spring-loaded for the worst-case scenario. But look on the bright side; at least a key starting pitcher did not come up lame.
That would be worth fretting about.

Europe aims to build its own supercomputers
Sixteen European companies and research agencies have launched a programme
to expand the use and production of supercomputers in Europe. The plan,
announced last week, is a response to a warning earlier this year that European
industry must stop depending on foreign supercomputers.
The programme is called European Industry Initiative, or Ei3. 'The third
'i' stands for imagination,' says Gertrud Ohling of the programme's office
in Constance. Next week the companies will ask the European Commission to
help fund Ei3 through ESPRIT, its research programme for information technology.
European scientists lead research into parallel processing, the computer
architecture which will form the next generation of supercomputers. Ei3
aims to turn this 'technological edge' into 'an industrial advantage', by
bringing developers of parallel processing technology together with industrial
users, so that machines can be designed to meet specific needs.
This echoes a report to the Commission earlier this year by a panel
of scientists and computer users (This Week, 23 February). The panel warned
that European industry would suffer if it continued to rely on foreign supercomputers.
Members of the panel complained at the time that European computer companies
expressed little interest in developing supercomputers. The German company
Siemens, for example, considered supercomputers unprofitable. No big computer
companies were present at the launch of Ei3 last week. The only prospective
suppliers of machines were Inmos, a British firm developing the transputers
required for parallel processing, and Parsytec, a small German firm which
plans to use Inmos transputers.
But according to Jop Kingmans of the Dutch research agency TNO, Siemens
now intends to join. Kingmans says Ei3 will try to sign up more big computer
manufacturers before ESPRIT's annual conference next week, 'but our main
focus is on industrial users of supercomputing'.
Besides research agencies such as TNO and the German Fraunhofer Society,
the remaining members of Ei3 are industrial users of supercomputers. They
include the large German companies Daimler-Benz, Telefunken, AEG and Dornier,
which are interested in applications ranging from medical equipment to traffic
control; CAP Gemini, a leading French software producer; Casa, a Spanish
maker of flight simulators; and Piraiki-Patraiki, a large Greek textile
maker interested in using supercomputers for quality control.

Why is BMW a man's car? Apparently because men enjoy hanging out at the beach alone. Advertising was different then. One sentence in bold followed by a picture and paragraphs of text are rarely used today, but in 1967 they were the norm.
Car and Driver's April 1967 issue has full page ads from nearly every import manufacture using variations on the same theme. Hit the jump to see the pitch from BMW, Porsche, Mercedes-Benz, Opel, VW, Saab, Volvo, Renault, Peugeot, Citroen, MG, Triumph, Rootes/Chrysler, Rover, and Ford.
Personally, the Saab and Porsche ads are the best visually and I like the copy of the Mercedes-Benz ad more than the others. Taking up the rear are the MG, Rover and Volvo ads.
While I don't like to criticize anything about the Volvo P1800 the Ferrari comparison seems ridiculously weak and the ad seems to agree. The P1800 is great car in its own right and shouldn't be sold as half a Ferrari.
Choosing a favorite car amongst the models advertised is difficult. The BMW, Citroen, and Renault are all very attractive. If I could buy any of these cars today for the 1967 MSRP, I'd take the Rover even though I don't know what a Sam Browne belt is. Despite the awful ad, I think the Rover is the least likely to be found for sale today in running condition.
Have a favorite? Sound off in the comments.

Nice blog! I love old car ads. Sometimes seems worth buying up all the old Time, Life, NatGeo mags in the used bookstores just to check out the ads.ReplyDelete
BMW views them that is like the Porsche as in they have kept a similar look directly from the very first moment and this is on the grounds that it worked and it worked great. cars and trucks for saleReplyDelete

10 Fastest Growing BYOD Solution Providers 2016
The Silicon Review
'Increasing awareness and education about additional and advanced transportation options for people.'
Mobility Lab is a research-and-development initiative for "transportation demand management – moving people instead of cars." It is based in Arlington, Virginia, which has one of the largest transportation-demand-management programs in the U.S., and removes 45,000 car trips from the county's roads each work day.
Mobility Lab nurtures innovations to a fundamental requirement of human life: better transportation options for everyone. It is a place of collaboration, education, and continuous improvement for moving people in more healthy, efficient, and sustainable ways.
What is TDM?
One of Mobility Lab's primary roles is to measure the impacts of "transportation demand management" services in Arlington County, Virginia – frequently cited as a national leader for public transportation. Third-party research shows that Arlington's TDM work has been very successful, even though TDM investment pales in comparison to the dollars required to build roadways. TDM outreach work throughout the county helps shift 41,000 car trips each work day from solo-driven cars to some other forms of transportation. That's roughly the equivalent of the number of vehicles on six lanes of I-66 and I-95 during the three-hour morning rush hour. Thus TDM cost-effectively supports the investment the county has made in its land-use plan and transportation infrastructure, resulting in better use of Arlington's transportation system.
TDM is the flip side of infrastructure. It focuses on helping people use the infrastructure in place for transit, ridesharing, walking, biking, telework, and driving. It is cost-effective in guiding the design of our transportation and physical infrastructure so that alternatives to driving alone are naturally encouraged and our systems are better balanced.
TDM thus underlies most of the important new initiatives of today: transit-oriented development, complete streets, walkable activity centers, livability and sustainability initiatives, and integrated corridor management.
How is TDM changing transportation choices in Arlington County and beyond?
Mobility Lab's original research supports the case for how and why transportation demand management improves communities. It is fortunate to be embedded within the county government, studying from within a world-class "living laboratory" of transportation development.
The Mobility Lab team works in-house with innovative TDM partners like BikeArlington, WalkArlington, Capital Bikeshare, Arlington Transportation Partners, goDCgo, The Commuter Stores®, And many others in the region. It also serves to communicate the best practices from around the world back to Arlington's leaders and citizenry.
The Three pillars of Mobility Lab
Research – about how Arlington's transit-oriented development works. The company is embedded within the living laboratory that is Arlington County Commuter Services. It produces and disseminates cutting-edge original transportation research that details why so many of Arlington's roads are free of the traffic that clogs so many urban areas.
Collaboration – to bring about innovation. Mobility Lab is a convener and engager of top minds on transportation in the D.C. region, nationally, and internationally, regularly holding online collaborations and events like Hack Days, Transportation Camp, and educational symposiums on topics ranging from sustainability to real-estate development and beyond.
Communication – about best practices. It is a leading online source for how we can improve our lives by making better transportation choices than the ones our society has been trained to embrace. The company wants to share your research, as well as build a database of readable, entertaining, and usable best practices to work with an array of partners advocating for better policy and increased funding for those working in the TDM industry.
Mobility Lab Technology – Transit TechTo benefit from the use of multiple transportation modes, especially transit, people need reliable information that will help them plan their trips. With the widespread adoption of smartphones, which nearly two-thirds of all Americans now use, it's easier than ever for people to consider trying new transportation options.
Because of these options in places like Washington, D.C., New York City, Chicago, and Los Angeles, it is becoming easier to combine walking, biking, driving, ridesharing, and transit for getting to social activities and work. Data transparency is leading cities and agencies to prioritize real-time information that will connect citizens to a more vibrant lifestyle.
Mobility Lab and Arlington County are constantly seeking to improve transportation through technology with events like our Transportation Camp, its Transportation Techies group, and tech partnerships like CarFreeAtoZ, TransitScreen, and Transit Near Me. These efforts are making smarter transportation choices a way of life.

Delirium by Lauren Oliver
"Hearts are fragile things. That's why you have to be so careful."
For seventeen years Lena has only known one world. A black and white world where it's one thing or another. People are either cured or uncured, there are praised regulators or hunted sympathizers, you either penned inside the electrified fence or an invalid in the Wilds outside of the fence. But the one aspect of her life that is neither black or white is love a deadly, infectious disease – Amora Deliria Nervosa – that has spread fear and panic.
For seventeen years Lena has been living a safe life, going to school and endlessly preparing for evaluation day, the day that determines the rest of her life: what she'll study at college and even who she will spend the rest of her life with. Until the day of her evaluation where a herd of unruly cows and a golden-haired boy botch up her evaluation. So much for getting that high score she was hoping for.But that wasn't even the strangest part. The strangest part was the golden-haired boy who stood overlooking the incident head tilted back laughing. Life suddenly changes for Lena, her safe life is about to become a whole lot more dangerous than she had planned.
Lena has found herself breaking curfew, sneaking out, and going to unauthorized parties – parties that have the potential of being raided, and worst of all wrapped in the arms dancing with the same golden-haired boy she saw at the labs – Alex. Lena should be worrying instead of dancing – worrying how that dancing alone, yet in a boys arms is a punishable federal offense, especially since she hasn't been cured yet. But at that moment Lena can't seem to think, care about that – all she could think is that the deadly deliria is slowly, surely sinking into her.
As their relationship spirals into something wild and wonderful all the fear the has built up inside of Lena suddenly dissipates. That is until this forbidden romance is found out. Will Alex and Lena's love for each other to keep them together, will Lena be sent to crypts to rot and die, or worse will she be sent to the doctors to be cured risking the possibility of losing, not only Alex, but also herself?
Lauren Oliver has written an original novel centered around a common concept: love. Delirium is a thought-provoking look into a society that is so fearful of love, that it is actually devoid of it. With the ability to stir up raw emotions, Oliver captures her audience, not just with an enticing storyline, but with her lyrical writing. Readers are bound to get swept into Lena's mind and world, it won't be long before readers themselves begin to feel the touch of deliria.
Told through Lena's perspective, her voice is real and inviting which will ultimately lead readers deeper and deeper into her life, personal thoughts, and the corrupted world she lives in. This is a story that readers will immediately gravitate towards because as similar as it is to the world we live in, it is vastly different. Evenly paced, Oliver builds a vivid world that readers can easily picture in their mind's eye.
Delirium is a heart-wrenching romantic suspense novel that will leave readers gripping their seats waiting to see what will happen to Lena with both fear and anticipation. Oliver really knows how to, not only instill emotion within her audience, but also feed off it at the same time.

I can take your training to the NEXT LEVEL! Check out my PROGRAMS and 1 on 1 Coaching!
Today we're going to dig a little deeper into a subject that we've talked about before and it's the "Skinny Fat" body type. In the first article called 'Why Are You Skinny Fat?', we talked more about the basic reasons why you could be skinny fat like using a diet that is too extreme, training with workouts that were not programmed correctly, or you may just be naturally skinny but eat like crap and don't really train at all. So today we're going to get into a bit more of the specifics of the 'mentality of training' to help you understand how THREE very specific reasons might be holding you back!
Reason #1: You're Constantly Increasing Your Training Intensity, But Not Your Calorie Intake
What I see a lot in my gym is people who are trying to lose that last layer of body fat, especially around their mid-section and they go into what I call "psycho training mode". They perform a 2 hour workout, plus cardio for 45 minutes and then end it with the sauna or steam room. In theory this might sound like it'll work and I wouldn't even doubt that some stupid magazine somewhere said a celebrity did this to get ripped for a movie. But my Daddy always told me to work SMART, not hard and this my friends is a recipe for disaster. Not just physically, but mentally as well.
You can only push yourself this hard for so long before your body starts to shut down and I'm not saying that pushing body is bad. What I'm getting at here is that people who go into psycho training mode do all this intense work, but NEVER increase their calories! Then because of all this extra work, their calorie deficit becomes so huge that instead of burning fat, their bodies start burning muscle in order to obtain the nutrients and energy their body needs to keep up with the training.
So if this sounds like you, the solution is simple. Yes you can boost the intensity of your workouts, but if the goal is to get shredded maybe instead of doing LONGER muscle building workouts (where you hit your chest for 3 hours?!), you need to be smart and switch up your workouts to something like full body circuits where you're doing exercises like burpees, jumping lunges, plyo push-ups, dumbbell curls to shoulder presses, bent-over rows to rear delt raises, etc.Basically, switch your workout to something that is GEARED TOWARD burning more calories in a shorter amount of time and make sure you adjust your meal plan so that you actually have the energy to perform these workouts.
Reason #2: You Do The Same Workout Every Day, Every Week, Every Month, Every Year
This actually came up because there is a woman in my gym that I have seen do the same butt and leg workout every single day for about the past month. Actually what's funny about this is when I first met my wife in the gym, she used to do the same thing, leg day every day! Now I know most of my viewers are men, but this still applies to you.
How many times and for how long have you been going to the gym and been just going through the motions of the same routine? You know what exercises to do, what order to do them in and you don't need a journal because you've already memorized all your weights you lift for every set. This my friends means that your intensity is in the toilet. Yes you're still "weight training", but the muscle stimulation isn't what it used to be when you first started out and you've most likely plateaued months ago! But the worst part about this is the psychological affect it'll have on you. In your brain you know that you've going to the gym to train every week, so why are you not seeing results?! Well, the only thing it could be is your meal plan, right?! So if you're training for muscle growth you'll probably try to eat more food to see gains and if you're training for fat loss you'll most likely start reducing your calories even more to lose more fat. But no matter what you do, each choice is going to lead toward increasing that skinny fat look.
So what is the REAL problem here? Well, its' that you don't have a game plan, a strategy or a vision and that's OK, that's why I'm here! You need a proper workout program geared towards your goal and increasing the intensity of your training month after month so you don't plateau with your progress whether it's for muscle gain or fat loss. Then once your workout plan is in order, if you're still not seeing the results you want, THEN we can take a closer look at your meal plan.
Reason #3: Not Drinking Enough Water
So, for those of you trying to lose weight, I've noticed that a lot of people seem to think that sweat is fat. I know, this sounds crazy, but let me explain. When you rely on the scale for weight loss all you focus on is that number going down, so you do everything you can to sweat and not take on too much "water weight". For those of you trying to build muscle, you might be reaching for a sandwich every couple hours, but not your water bottle because let's face it, drinking water is boring and easy to forget about. For example, I can tell myself I'm not thirsty, then go and grab a drink that I like, like a soda or an energy drink and I can down that in two seconds. But if I were to grab some water, I wouldn't really be that interested in drinking it at that very minute. My point is it happens to all of us.
But we have to remember that water is SO important no matter what your goal is! Water aids with proper digestion to make minerals and nutrients more accessible to the body. Then once digested, water also helps your body excrete waste through perspiration, urination and pooping. But what most people fail to realize is that our bodies are about 60% water and we're losing water all day long through breathing, sweating and as we just mentioned, digestion. Your body also uses water in all its cells, organs, and tissues to help regulate its temperature and maintain other bodily functions. So if reasons number 1 and 2 don't apply to you and you're still skinny fat, well then the missing key must be not drinking enough water, which is about 1.5 to 2 liters a day (minimum). I'd also like to mention that on those days where you feel super FLAT or maybe you just can't get a good pump in the gym, think about much water you have consumed lately. I bet the answer is going to be not enough.
Think about this as well. If you're drinking ANYTHING ELSE which includes energy drinks, soda, coffee or pre-workouts mixed with water…even though those are liquids, your body still needs MORE water to help break those down for digestion. So, not all fluids are made equal is what I am trying to say. Just because something might "contain water" it doesn't necessarily count toward your daily goal. So drink up!

NEWTON, Kansas (Mennonite Mission Network) – The Youth Venture group bound for Barcelona, Spain, needed something more than rounds of Dutch Blitz played in airport terminals to break the ice between the newly acquainted participants. Their breakthrough came while trying to catch a pigeon.
The six participants and two sponsors that made up the Youth Venture Barcelona group came from the United States and Northern Ireland. While they had spent time together at airport boarding gates and exploring the streets of Dublin during an extended layover, they had yet to let down their guards and open up to each other after arriving in Barcelona.
"The first couple of days were very quiet," said Susan Nisly, who served as a sponsor of the group. Nisly is the director of the Service Adventure program at Mennonite Mission Network. She recalled that during a planning session in a park, one of the participants announced that they were going to try to catch a pigeon. Soon, other participants joined in and roamed the park together, searching for birds. "That was the moment that got everyone to believe that we could have fun together," said Nisly.
While no pigeons were caught, friendships were forged that would last the entire trip.
The goal for the team's two weeks in Barcelona was to help with an English camp hosted by the Comunidad Evangélica Menonita congregation, and led by Alisha and Joshua Garber, who have served with Mission Network since 2013, and in Barcelona since 2017. Throughout Europe, English camps are a common way for churches to connect with community youth who are interested in spirituality but might find a traditional church service intimidating.
"Alisha and I have been working in such camps since our first missional project in the Czech Republic in 2010," said Joshua Garber. "Our community's young people are really keen to learn English, so it made a lot of sense."
Comunidad Evangélica Menonita invited church youth to the inaugural week of English camp, with hopes of expanding the camp as an outreach into the community in the coming years.
Throughout the week, the Youth Venture group and the church youth played games, engaged in daily worship sessions, and spent time sharpening conversation skills together, eventually making a short film as a final project.
The two youth groups quickly grew close, despite initial interactions tinged with shyness. They continued eating meals, sightseeing, and working on service projects together even after the week-long camp had officially concluded.
"The relationships that sprang up between the two respective youth groups were the most significant part of [the trip]" said Jason Boone, who served alongside Nisly as a sponsor for the Youth Venture team.

Islamic butcher shop event goes on despite challenges
The Council on American-Islamic Relations, the nation's largest Muslim advocacy and civil rights organization, today thanked the Town of Warrenton for ending a police blockade of a Muslim-owned business so that local Muslims may carry out obligations associated with the end-of-Hajj Eid ul-Adha ('festival of the sacrifice') holiday that begins on Tuesday.
— CAIR statement Monday night
Dozens of customers waited in Tuesday morning's downpour for the meat of freshly slaughtered goats and lambs at the Lebanese Butcher in Warrenton.
"It's like our Christmas; it is important," Ashraf Nubani, a Northern Virginia lawyer, said of the Islamic feast of Eid al-Adha.
Tradition calls for Muslims to humanely slaughter animals and share their meat with the needy, friends, neighbors and family.
"It honors the willingness of Ibrahim (Abraham) to sacrifice his son as an act of obedience to God's command," Wikipedia explains. "Before Abraham could sacrifice his son, God provided a ram to sacrifice instead."
The meat gets no fresher than at the small butcher shop behind Tom Frost Firestone on West Shirley Avenue.
But, the shop's Aug. 19-21 holiday sale, which has taken place annually for more than two decades, almost got shut down this week.
Town Manager Brannon Godfrey on Aug. 10 informed the owners that because they failed to apply for a special events permit at least 90 days in advance, as Warrenton's policy requires, the shop's annual sale could not take place. The event — from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily — attracts hundreds of customers to the region's only Islamic butcher shop.
Samir Rababeh, whose family owns the business, filed the permit application Monday, Aug. 6, according to town records. Mr. Godfrey informed him of the permit denial by phone four days later.
After prayers at an Annandale mosque on Friday, Aug. 17, Mr. Rababeh complained about the town's decision to Nihad Awad, executive director of the Washington-based
Council on American-Islamic Relations
The next day, town police blocked the butcher shop's narrow, gravel driveway, which a farmer tried to enter with a truckload of live goats and lambs. He called Kheder Rababeh, 52, who started the business more than two decades ago. Mr. Rababeh called his lawyer.
CAIR on Monday sent Mr. Godfrey a letter, asking the town to "lift the current police blockade of the USDA-certified Lebanese Butchers facility so that those celebrating the end of the annual pilgrimage (Hajj) may carry out their constitutionally-protected religious obligations for the Eid ul-Adha ("festival of the sacrifice") holiday beginning Tuesday, August 21."
CAIR also issued a press release that drew coverage from D.C. TV stations, The Washington Post and CNN.
Working with CAIR and the business owners, Town Attorney Whit Robinson later Monday reached an agreement to allow the sale to proceed, with police-directed vehicle access to the tight parking lot outside the squat cinderblock butcher shop and a construction trailer that serves as its office.
Customers from the Washington, D.C., region lined up early to buy goats for $270 each and lambs for $280 apiece. Most knew nothing of the sale's threatened cancellation.
"From my perspective, they had been given plenty of notice," Mr. Robinson said Tuesday. "It happens year after year."
The town attorney described the shop as "a legal, non-conforming use." Warrenton has issued two notices of ordinance violations and has drafted others that municipal officials shared with the owners, who've repeatedly pledged to address the issues without follow-through, Mr. Robinson said.
The office trailer has not undergone inspection; the parking lot has no marked spaces or organization; building code and fire code violations exist, the town attorney said.
He produced documents and emails going back to Jan. 3 that detail the town staff's efforts to resolve some of the issues.
All of town government's concerns relate to "public safety," Mr. Robinson said.
For years, town officials have received complaints about loose animals, odor and, during events such as this week's festival, traffic and parking around the very tight, half-acre site.
The town frequently has threatened litigation to force compliance with its ordinances but never has gone that far, Mr. Robinson said.
"This year, we finally said, 'We can't do it any more'," he said of the Aug. 10 notice of the special event permit denial.
CAIR Executive Director Awad said, "We're going to be involved to make sure this has the right resolution" to prevent future conflict.
"I hope so," Mr. Robinson said when told of CAIR's pledge to help get the business into compliance with town ordinances.
Mr. Awad praised Mr. Robinson's willingness to negotiate a compromise this time and to work toward a permanent solution.
Just after 6 p.m. Monday, Mr. Award's organization issued a statement saying in part: "The Council on American-Islamic Relations, the nation's largest Muslim advocacy and civil rights organization, today thanked the Town of Warrenton, Va., for ending a police blockade of a Muslim-owned business so that local Muslims may carry out obligations associated with the end-of-Hajj Eid ul-Adha ('festival of the sacrifice') holiday that begins on Tuesday."
As in years past, three town police officers Tuesday morning directed traffic, helping customers into and out of the butcher shop parking lot. They will stay on that task 12 hours a day during the event. The business will reimburse the town for traffic control.
"Mr. Robinson worked with me," said Kheder Rababeh, the family patriarch whose mother emigrated from Lebanon to the U.S. in 1950.

For those who doubt Islam's real purpose in our country, here's just one example:
· August 29, 2018 at 2:32 pm
Muslims and terrorist front groups like CAIR, do not belong in non-Islamic countries.
•Islam's goal, stated many times by 'American' Muslim leaders, is to make all countries, including the USA, Islamic.
How many times do they have to prove it?
· August 26, 2018 at 1:56 pm
Apparently this was an important service provided by this shop as a part of a religous celebration observed by a minority group of American citizens,. If this shop had been closed, a lot of innocent people would be deprived of an important part of their ritual. If a majority group of American citizens could only buy a Christmas Turkey at one local shop, and that shop missed a filing deadline, wouldn't it be right to grant a one-time exception? Especially if this shop had been selling Turkeys for 20 years and missed a meaningless deadline through inadvertence. Mr. Robinson did the right thing in reaching a compromise on the filing issue this year. Now that this is done, Mr. Robinson needs to insist on compliance with the rule of law. Good job Mr. Robinson, now lets clean this up!

Madame, that is your opinion. However, this is not the time for American citizens to be frightened, but to be engaged in our community and our country; to seek out truth and beauty; and to be prepared for any eventuality; and to seek to fully understand, support and defend our U.S. Constitution (it is under siege by Bolshevik factions in our country who seek to live in world without the United States; without Virginia; without any sovereign borders, common English language, common culture and history, without our Bill of Rights, or without our Virginia Declaration of Rights).
Read extensively; learn as much as you can about the world around you; study the firsthand accounts of the past; protect our American history and monuments- all of it- and developed reasoned imaginations and perspectives of the future. With these attributes, you can accomplish anything devoid of fear and historic ignorance of the very worst kind. U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower often spoke of an informed citizenry, alert and knowledgeable, being the best defense against tyranny. President Eisenhower also noted, "The history of free men is never really written by chance but by choice- their choice." And, "History does not long entrust the care of freedom to the weak or the timid."
On a much larger scale, if one is sober enough to consider the unforgiving laws of economics in relation to decades of deficit spending and fiat currency issued at a truly incomprehensible scale since President Eisenhower's 1961 Farewell Address; over $220 Trillion in national debt; endless foreign wars; the breakdown of Judeo-Christian society, laws and order; the rise of anti-American, anti-Constitution Bolshevism across our land; the entrenched swamp of sewage that comprises so much of Washington, D.C. these days to include both major political parties; etc., that if you show me a person with a healthy mind and traditional American frame of reference, I will show you someone who is- and should be- genuinely concerned about our immediate future, and someone who is engaged and paying attention. Only the Fool goes around enjoying bread and circuses during a time like this- when in fact the same discussions that took place in the roadhouses and taverns in such places as Boston, Massachusetts and Charleston, South Carolina in 1775 and 1860 are taking place once again today. We are still struggling with the same issues- mostly economic and political; pro-Jeffersonian or pro-Hamiltonian in nature. So it is best to stay engaged and pay attention to what is unfolding before our eyes across our American continent.
Lastly, taking a longer view of world history, there is much we can learn from the sacrifices made by each prior generation of Americans and Virginians. Even those who died in great causes of liberty and independence never fail. If you have reason to believe our nation has already crossed the Rubicon and what has been lost of our former original American republic of sovereign, independent states bequeathed to us by our founders- since lost at Appomattox Courthouse and Durham Station- can never be regained under the present, massive Empire, we can still take heart in knowing that the ultimate revenge against tyranny is to lead as good and noble lives with our family, friends, neighbors and loved ones- for even the Christians led good and noble lives during the fall of ancient Rome.
Take care, all good wishes, and may America Bless God.

@ Jeffersonian American
You need to get a life outside of politics. And perhaps need to be monitored by law enforcement. Your post is more frightening than anything I've seen/read about American/Islam relations ever.
Seriously - you need to seek therapy asap.

It appears one respondent is committing taqiyya with their "news flash" when they state, "CAIR is a non-profit based in Washington, D.C., hence it is an American organization which represents the interest of Americans." Clearly, the writer needs to clarify exactly what kind of Hyphenated Americans does CAIR represent? And precisely what kind of "American" ideals does CAIR, which has ties to terror-linked Hamas, represent?
Perhaps the recent article in American Thinker sums it up best:
It cannot be denied that a Muslim plan to usurp American democracy has existed for decades. Careful scrutiny of this new wave of Muslim candidates yields a number with questionable backgrounds, motivations, and support groups, whose motives may be to implement the plan.
The plan to infiltrate and take over American democracy is explained in a 1987 strategic document, "An Explanatory Memorandum," written and approved by the Muslim Brotherhood, a political organization with ties to the fundamentalist terrorist organization Hamas. The Muslim Brotherhood has itself been designated a terrorist organization by seven nations, including Egypt, where the Brotherhood began in 1928. The memorandum calls for the elimination of the U.S. Constitution and its replacement with an Islamic government under sharia law. It spells out its "process of settlement" as a "Civilization-Jihadist Process" to eliminate and destroy Western civilization from within. It calls for the establishment of political organizations designed to train and promote the Muslim Brotherhood goal of establishing the Quran as the sole authority for the Muslim family, individual, community, and state.
Several organizations- primed specifically to assist, support, and increase the number of U.S. Muslim candidates for office- are affiliated with the Muslim Brotherhood. They include the United States Council of Muslim Organizations (USCMO), Project Mobilize, Jetpac Inc., and Emgage.
The USCMO, a political party for Muslims and the first religion-based political party in U.S. history, formalized its commitment to Muslim candidates at its founding in 2014. Conspicuously absent from the USCMO <http://www.uscmo.org/about-us> website are references to U.S. laws or a pledge to uphold the Constitution.
Emgage's mission is to promote the political careers of "engaged Muslims." It was formerly known as Emerge USA, founded and led today by alumni from the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), which has ties to Hamas. Emgage got its start raising campaign funds for former Democratic representative Keith Ellison, who supported racist and anti-Semite Louis Farrakhan, worked on behalf of Nation of Islam, and received political contributions by CAIR officials. Emgage has held events at terror-linked mosques and seeks to "create an infrastructure of Muslim, Arab, and South Asian Americans who are empowered and can directly impact public policy."
These organizations are plainly dedicated not to American principles of democracy, but to Muslim ideals. Meanwhile, some of the recent Muslim candidates also hold questionable allegiances and motivations, specifically a Florida attorney general candidate and congressional candidates for Michigan and Minnesota.
By the way, in his independent comparative study of the world's religions over 200 years ago, Third U.S. President Thomas Jefferson had nothing good to say about Islam when he read the Koran and he made extensive critical handwritten notes in the margins in his personal copy (the same one now owned by the Library of Congress) and which was abused symbolically with the recent Capitol "swearing in" of U.S. Congressman Keith Ellison, second in command of the Democrat National Committee. Independent scholars who have examined President Jefferson's personal library copy have verified this. President Jefferson's decisive actions against the Barbary pirates further speak volumes to his very sage understanding of the so-called "religion of peace."
I would encourage the CAIR respondent to refrain from further abusing the Christian U.S. Presidents Jefferson and Madison; and the generations of Patriots who have paved the American Road before them- and all the rest of those Christian American founders who bequeathed to us our religious freedoms and our other constitutional rights to be embraced, strengthened and safeguarded- or respected- by future generations, originally intended as a new, largely European polity on the American continent. Please, stop the taqiyya- millions of Thinkiing Americans want no further expansion of dhimmitude here on Virginia and U.S. soil. Your example of CAIR taqiyya hurts your cause and your arguments.

I would have felt a lot more charitable to the business - regardless of its religious affiliations - if they hadn't been given the chance to resolve this permit situation for several years now.
In this case I feel that they should have been shut down, as that apparently would have been the only thing that might have gotten them to wake up & start complying with the same rules & regulations that everyone else has to.

Kets get to the point , foreigners cry to a muslin group to get special treatment becuase they cannot follow the rules. If this was a Christian group it would have stayed a no .
The only reason it was allowed is becuase of fear of special interest groups playing the typical liberal card of race or discrimination.
Follow the rules made for everyone or go back where you came from.
No more special treatment, all these groups want to be equals and considered Americans , then follow the rules or get out .
We will not allow our country to be turned into a third world cesspool by cair and such groups pushing their garbage on us anymore.
We must stand up and fight for the America and forfathers and ancestors battled , fraught, and died for.
This new pc world is not it and must stop now !
· August 23, 2018 at 6:09 pm
Oh, good grief! Surely you don't have that little understanding of the situation. Yes, Americans who "cried" (in your vernacular) to an American group. Here's another newsflash for you: CAIR is a non-profit based in Washington, DC; hence, it is an American organization which represents the interests of Americans.
Do you truly not understand the difference between one's religion and their nationality? People can be both Muslim and American - just like they can be both Christian and American, Jewish and American, atheist and American, etc.
Have you ever heard of some fellow Virginians by the name of Jefferson and Madison? They had some really interesting thoughts on religious freedom. Somehow, I don't think they'd share your view of this stuff being "pc garbage."

Americans yet they cry to a muslin special interest group... if they are so American why cry to them about rules and laws ..
This is America and if they dont like our rules then dont let the door hit em on the way out.
So sick of this pc garbage and our country bending over for foreign interest groups.

"If this was an event for Americans..." Newsflash, No remorse, it IS an event for Americans. Faith and nationality are two separate (and very different) things. It's just one of the reasons why the First Amendment so precious.
· August 23, 2018 at 1:05 pm
How can the Town of Warrenton & the county justify to the citizens changing the rules for 1 business and not for all the others that do not obtain their permits on time or correct their violations. Seems like they had to give in because of it being the Islamic Butcher and afraid of the publicity they would get if they denied the sales by the butcher to take place. Do they make so much money in revenue from this sale that they cannot afford to deny the permit.I wouldn't think so !!
No remorse
· August 23, 2018 at 5:49 am
You nailed it.
We are need to fight this plague now and stop it feom taking over our county before we end up like the rest of northern Virginia.
Just another day of Americans being forced out and undercut by these cry babies who dont follow our rules.
Here is an idea, if they dont like our laws and rules oyr founding fathers put in place for us then they can get put amd go back to where they belong.
Its time we start worryinv about our own

It is fair, after repeated issues of non-compliance with local ordinances; continued documentation of violations of safety and zoning restrictions; and at best, a mostly permanent, foul stench for all local residents of Warrenton and passing drivers with their windows rolled down (or kept rolled up- magnitudes worse during the warmer 6 months of each year- enough of a bad stench to keep many customers away from the local GMC dealership, the local Firestone Tire dealer, the local firearms dealer and hurting foot traffic for other nearby business establishments for many years now)- why not demand our County and Town Officials revisit how and why this local business was approved over 20 years ago; why not revisit the reasons for this specific business being allowed to continue (unlike other repeat violators and repeat offenders in our local business community) to operate without forced compliance, fines and shut-down of all operations on all days of the calendar year they remain out of compliance? What makes this particular business so special that it is allowed such special exemptions far, far, far beyond what would otherwise be normal and reasonable and accountable for all other citizens and businesses of Warrenton and Fauquier County? Why would the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) feel the need to intervene in a local town issue with a massive, regional news press release for intimidation?
Thinking Citizens know the reasons why- and it is very ugly and frightening indeed when one realizes CAIR apparently runs our local Government; and decides what laws, ordinances and zoning restrictions shall be enforced or not enforced with a little intimidation and regional and national negative attention lobbied against them. With help from a compliant media, Sharia Law proponents have reached critical mass to win statewide and congressional seats. Nearly all- if not all- major party candidates in Virginia state and national offices accept Islamic funding in recent decades. It's a creeping threat to our Virginia and U.S. Constitution, the documents essential to holding our increasingly diverse population together as a nation. Sharia Law is not remotely compatible with our Virginia and U.S. Constitutions. Yet, it is apparently compatible for our local Warrenton and Fauquier Government to obey and capitulate to threats and intimidation by a thoroughly discredited national organization, rather than the rule of law and local zoning ordinances the rest of we Virginia citizens are subject to (and were once taught, the American Way, to have respect for beginning at home and later, in elementary school civics lessons). Complying with local ordinances and laws or amending them through the local process is a Virginia and American constitutional, self-government tradition spanning over 240 years. Either we have an effective, impartial, fact-based, objective local Government and local zoning ordinance requirements strictly enforced or adjudicated- or we have Creeping Sharia. This is a textbook case of Creeping Sharia. And you all have been forewarned. Wake Up America, Wake Up Fauquier.

Sad that Warrenton had to bow down and give special treatement to this event because some pc group complains.
If this was an event for Americans i am sure it would have stayed a No like it should have been for them.
If you dont follow the rules you get no reward .

Click the blue link above to check out what deals and promotions they are currently offering in electronics and accessories. At the moment, they do have a Save 25% Off of Select Items promotion.
Feedback History
DA TECH PRO has earned about 2,000 positive feedback ratings, with a current 97% positive overall score. DA TECH PRO is also rated as a #1 Best Seller in many of the categories that they sell on Amazon.co.uk. This basically means that they offer both a competitive price, as well as a history of customer satisfaction in those categories.
DA TECH PRO mainly sells video games, video game accessories, housewares, smart watches, office electronics, movies, DVD's, tablets, and more. They sell name brands like Microsoft, Sony, ACTIVISION, Electronic Arts, HyperX, Fitbit, Samsung, Vax, Rockstar, Nintendo, Crucial, Linx, Kärcher, Raspberry Pi , Lenovo, and more.
This is one of those Amazon.co.uk stores to visit when you want the retail experience. If you've been to any electronics store in general, you should be familiar with the brands and styles that they carry.
Items like HyperX Cloud Stinger Gaming Headset for PC/Xbox/One/PS4/Wii U/Mobile – Black, Fitbit Blaze Smart Fitness Watch, Xbox One S FIFA 17 Console Bundle (500GB) by Microsoft, Sony PlayStation VR, Vax TBTTV1B1 Cordless SlimVac 22.2 V Bagless Vacuum Cleaner, etc.

When you sell name brand electronics, etc., especially at a discount, a popular question is always going to be if the items are authentic, fake, or knock-offs. To answer that question…
Let's take a close look at their recent feedback history. Amazon.co.uk buyers have a really good way of weeding out the good sellers from the bad. If an item even SLIGHTLY looks like it might be a counterfeit or knock-off, they will leave you bad feedback. And any and all flaws will usually be reflected in a seller's feedback. With that being said, over the past 12 months, DA TECH PRO has received about 1,200 positive feedback ratings, compared to just 2% negative feedback comments. With that sort of lop-sided ratio, it definitely appears as though DA TECH PRO is an honestly run business, selling authentic merchandise.

What I like or don't like
Their storefront is very organized. You have a product menu on the left side with all of the product categories available. So you just find your desired category, and go from there. Once you get into a listing page, you get a left hand menu with all of the brands available. So this store is very easy to navigate.
Another thing I appreciate is their attention to detail in their listings. Each listing has multiple clear and large pictures, so you can clearly see what is included in the listing. Their descriptions go into a lot of detail, and provide all the specifications that you might be looking for like the model they work for, size, color, etc. The quality of their listings is about as good as it gets on Amazon.co.uk. You get all sorts of pictures, sizes, weights, package contents, etc.
Their attention to detail, and their excellent feedback really makes you feel secure in shopping from this Amazon.co.uk store. As does their 14-day hassle free returns policy. No need to email back for a return authorization, or deal with with annoying emails back and forth. You just click on return, and send it back. And having two weeks to do so is quite convenient.
Have you shopped at this store before? If you have, leave a comment below and share your experience.

Irma Zoulane is a writer.
She is a she.
She is from the French part of Canada, and sometimes her native language pops up in random posts. Maybe Italian and Spanish, too.
She is autistic.
She is a translator, an industrial designer, a photographer, a good friend, a loner, not a mother, a good child carer, very sensitive to smells and tastes and sounds, and an enthusiastic list-maker.
She is a feminist.
She loves chocolate and dogs, forests and the ocean side, and the busy silence of nature.
Randomness is the universe, serendipity is what our feeble and extraordinary minds get to grasp. An attempt to put it into words is as fleeting and humble as the bee's busy work, pollinating ideas.

Contrary to the real estate business, where the system favors the concentration of wealth in only by just a few economic agents, intellectual property has the virtue of being more democratic. With an insatiable, curious, irreverent and inspired intelligence, anyone may can create wealth. The power of the mind is huge enormous.
Of course, one can argue that this is a romantic idea of intellectual property rights which is still true. Huge sums of money invested in research and development and a length, time-consuming process is behind every new drug or brand. Nonetheless, our principle contention remains: It is possible for an individual with little financial resources to create something that might change the world or can become trendy. All one needs to do is to think up with some new and creative concept or product and, if possible, to protect that idea by using intellectual property rights registration.
Intellectual property cannot be held and touched like a physical object such as a table or a cell-phone. Intellectual property cannot be discerned using the remaining senses since we are not able to smell or to hear intellectual property. We can only understand or apprehend through the intellect. So Intellectual property does not exist by itself. It exists only because we believe it exists. This represents the second link between intellectual property and democracy: the only way to protect intellectual property is to entrust this protection to a democratic state. Otherwise there will be no means to react against misappropriation. In addition, we should see the second part of this link between intellectual property and democracy: it is only possible for creative thinkers to operate in a country where there is freedom and a good education system supported by the government. Actually, we already know the impact of dictators on the great thinkers. They have always been considered as persona non grata by them. In the end, it is easier to control an ignorant society than a well-educated one. The examples of the scientists Giordano Bruno and Galileo Galilei, who were condemned by the Church for thinking differently from the meeting-house, is a case in point. Actually, "only God knows" the terrible negative impact on development that the Inquisition had in Europe.
Intellectual property is based on private monopolies. Arising from the former royal privileges, intellectual property rights allow their owners to prohibit third parties from using their...

#CES/Polaroid Goes Gaga, Sony in 3D, MS Unveils Slate
Started the day roaming the halls with social media gurus Jeff Pulver and Dave Taylor, stopped into P2P long enough for muffin and to hear about Playfirst, Activision's involving with using P2P for on demand gaming, then dropped in on Jeff and Dave at Social Media Jungle for inspirational tweets: Pulver – If I can tweet to 300,000 that's a Nielsen rating point..I look at this audience and recognize I am talking to millions…Twitter amplifies everything. Next I dropped by to see my old client Playspan talk about building out microtransaction platforms of not only virtual worlds but OTT video as well. I got other great tweets from Gaia on Skittles, Nike branding and Lego on immersive 3D gaming and the impact of Avatar on generations to come. Then it was a panel with TwitVid, the next YouTube if only it could get Apple to approve integration with Echofon for 3G, 2G and A&E who is making VG$ with games for Ice Road Truckers and Roy's World. Interesting that both TwitVid and AP said they are trying to reach teen market, TwitVid with Miley Cyrus and Demi Lovato, and AP because teens are the ones spending $.99 on VG. Bumped into analyst Mike Vorhaus who was talking about his cameo in Eddie Murphy's recent Imagine That and had a great lunch with Fujitsu. Didn't realize they had a comprehensive line of connected devices like full color rollup ereaders as well as automotive tablets. Last panel I tweeted showed Alcatel-Lucent's vision of a connected world – a sizzle reel everyone should see. I'll post links later. 1Cast, the digital newspaper talked about it's cross-platform strategyu and My Damn Channel tried to before being reminded by the moderator that it was a mobile panel. In this age of ubiquitous connectivity it seemed odd to me that there still are device specific panels featuring content producers. A lot has changed since last April when we were still talking just 3 screens. Auto and outdoor touch screens are likely to become as big as mobile. Think of all those captive eyeballs. Then it was off to Sony's press event with Taylor Swift singing Love Story in 3D. She'll be working with Sony this year to document her tour in 3D similar to the Hendrix Experience. As a matter of fact, Sony's entire press event circled around 3D with Stringer sporting the glasses introducing their pencil-thin 3D Bravias, ESPN 3D, the Sony Discovery IMAX 3D network, and the Sony CBS 3D Experience at the MGM Grand. Cool product intros not in 3D are the new Dash tablet and Cybershot's SD slot. he talked about a firmware update coming out to add 3D bluray to the 30mm PS3s worldwide. Then Ballmer was up with a classically Microsoft buggy keynote. It got a late start due to the power blowing out and ended abruptly without Ballmer. But he is so charismatic in his Detroit manner that I really enjoyed the presentation despite the lack of major oohs and aahs. Of course there was the tablet, HP's Slate. And the launch date for Project Natal, the body controller – Holiday 2010. Halo 3 players will get to beta Halo Reach this Spring. Episodic Alan Wake will also make a debut. But the biggest applause went to the 1000 retro games (think Frogger) becoming avaiable in VW Game Room Arcade for Xbox and PC. Bing. Bing. Bing. Ballmer told us to watch for a partnership announcement from Ford this morning as Ford reinvents itself as a tech company – how cool is that! Later at the Polaroid/VIP penthouse receptions the buzz was all about the Intel keynote later today focusing on wireless power. I had a chance to talk with Randy Fry regarding the merchandising of connected tvs at Fry's. He said the hot item has been the wifi dongle. Lady Gaga was announced as the Creative Director for Polaroid and will be at the booth this morning at 10:45. Blink and you'll miss her so get there early. Other celeb sightings today include 1-3 Stan Lee at Marvel and 4 Obama Girl at Kodak in the South Hall. NBCU will be showing off Vancouver at 10:30. And panels galore featuring Autonet, DISH, Build-A-Bear, Vtech, Leapfrog, Cartoon Network, WB, Lionsgate,, LG, Samsung, Sharp, Panasonic, Y!, YouTube, Freemantle… There's a tour of CBS Television City at the MGM Grand tonight 7-9 following the CESUp mixer at 6. I'm torn between that and ShowStoppers. Beet.tv is streaming from the floor with TechCrunch and we'll be tweeting from @contentnow, #CES. Enjoy!

Good morning,
Today I want to talk about Ryan (of course, in this blog everything is about him). Specifically, I want to talk about what we can buy on our beloved Gos.
As you know i'm Italian and here we can buy few things... No, this is not true.. We can buy everything but only from online foreigner sites. Infact Ryan is not a 'famous' actor yet (and maybe he will never be) and in shops we can buy only (some of his) movies.
That's why I buy only on Amazon.co.uk (yes i buy from the United Kingdom guys).
Besides Christmas is just round the corner (2 months!!!) and maybe it's time to start thinking why you could ask to be gifted...
Let me tell you that all you find in this post is sold on Amazon UK and Amazon USA and all you have to do is click on the name of the article to be linked to the site. I can guarantee they are safe. At the beginning I didn't trust 'em but now I buy often books or movies, I've got my own pre-paid credit card and my orders are always delivered in few days and I have never had a trouble. I do suggest you to give it a try.
So, can we start? Let's go GosAdd.
|Books.. on our Ryan Gosling... NOT OFFICIAL of course
I've picked up this 5 and I've got 2 of them.
The first one is the famous Feminist Ryan Gosling created by Danielle Henderson. She was a student at the time and one evening she was supposed to study but she couldn't. So, Ryan was there in front of her (maybe on a Magazine) and she started to create funny "hey girl" meme... The book was gifted to me by a friend last year and it's quite funny. Beatiful pics.
The second is the Colour Me Good: Ryan Gosling. Maybe it's not the perfect book for an adult woman but hey, it's Ryan Gosling! 15 images of Ryan (and George) to colour as you want.
The third one, Ryan Gosling, Hollywood's Finest, is an unofficial biography. I've bought it soon as it was released and it's not so bad. It's Ryan's career from the very beginning. Nick Johnstone, the author, is a journalist and in the book he refers manly to interview Ryan released through the years.
Then, we've got another new book that is 100 Reasons to love Ryan Gosling, just in case you haven't yet them while the last one is Ryan Gosling Paper Boy: as you can see from the cover all you need is a pair of scissors.
|Let Ryan enter in your owh house
Oh I know, I know.... You need the Jacket with the Scorpio Ryan wore in Drive! Well, you know you can't have the original one... Every jacket you can find online is not the original because only a bunch of them were available (and only few person could buy them). But you can buy a "copy" of it. There are tons of sites where you can buy it but, honestly, I don't know if they're safe or not.
I don't suggest you to buy tees on Amazon.co.uk: they are looking a little sad. But you can take a look on the US Store on Amazon.com, where you can find nice Tees and also a nice pijama, like the ones I've posted in pic above.
Another nice gift could be a case for the phone. Well, maybe you can go to a local shop next to you (as I did few months ago) and make them realize your own cover. If not, you can order them on Us Store - Amazon.com: 4 pages with nice covers (mostly for Iphone but not only). The first image you see in the pic is the same I've got for my own Iphone . I love it!!!
In the end, but this doens't mean it's less interestin, you can gift (or gift yourself) a Ryan for all the year with a Calendar : a pic (sorry, surely not a new one but it's always a Ryan's one!) for every month of 2014. You can also buy the Calendar with a Magnet. And you can wrap all your Ryan's gift with an incredible Ryan's Xmas Gift Paper .
Well, my GosAdd, let me tell you that I will receive no money from Amazon.co.uk or Amazon.com. I thought this could be just useful for you.
Let me know your opinion about the post (and also the blog) please.
Stay Gos

A more direct way to view my own reviews
I wish there was a more direct way to call up my own review when I've clicked onto a movie's page. As it is now, and correct me if I'm wrong, I can only immediately see my star review and then 'edit' my current review if I want to see it–but it makes me a little nervous because I don't want to actually /edit/ it, I just want to read it and perhaps see the comments on it.
I know if I click through 'friends reviews' then I can sort by showing mine with that, but it's a little annoying to have to search for something that should be more readily readable. A big part of why I have Letterboxd is to keep track of my own thoughts, so I just wish it was easier to pull those up without fearing I'll erase or edit them by mistake.

Many girls with Rett Syndrome need to be tube fed either exclusively or as a supplement for various reasons including aspiration and failure to thrive. The decision to have a feeding tube placed is a very difficult one for parents to make. There are so many emotions involved.
After coming home post-op, all a parent wants to do is make their girl comfortable and get her back to a normal routine. But it's the little things that seem to be the biggest obstacles. Things like shirts fitting too snugly around the new button and PJ's covering up the button making it hard to connect to the pump at night.
Our fantastic Rett families have done a lot of searching and have found some great resources for you and your tube-fed Rett girl. I personally like the comfy pads that fit around the stoma at Making Lemonade. There are also cute, soft covers for buttons at Belly Buttons and Belts. And easy ways to adapt clothing and PJ's at Tummy Tunnels.
Check out all these great ideas and more at Rett Girl.
If you are a parent facing a decision to tube feed and wanting support from parents who have been there, contact us! We are always here to support you!
