March is full of contradictions: Your numerology cycles for March 1–15
March in Vancouver is a strange month, full of contradictions. The crocuses are blooming and magnolia trees are threatening to burst forth, but down coats or vests are still useful. This is a spooky month, a time of equal dark and equal light, Wiccan festivals, Easter eggs and deep insight. Fortunately, it's a long month compared to February's cropped tail.
To find out what March has in store, calculate your key number by adding the day and month of your birth. Continue adding until you arrive at a single digit. For example, if your birthday is October 14, your personal number is determined as follows: 10 + 14 = 24. Then 2 + 4 = 6, and you have the key number (6) that you will keep for life.
Key number 1
Power is your middle name under the energy of this cycle month. You will be at the top of your game. Take advantage of new opportunities that come your way, and remember to emphasize your imaginative and creative ideas. Make the most of your verbal abilities. Explore exciting financial options that are bound to show up at this time. Remember to be as disciplined as possible — you will have a tendency to overspend, but if you have planted seeds of positivity and hard work in the past months, you may be entitled to a little spending spree.
Key number 2
Under the energy of this cycle month, it is a good idea to complete some of your long-term ventures and look around for new interests and experiences. Analyze the goals you've achieved over the last few months, and get a clear idea of the kind of projects you want to develop and take forward, but also look at which people, ideas, and projects have wisely been abandoned. Be prepared for high emotions and dramatic situations. Your charisma will burn bright this month — use it responsibly!
Key number 3
This is a time when it's possible for you to experience exciting change, dramatic progress and new beginnings. The energy of this month can be confusing, and at times you may feel a bit lost, but optimism should prevail and new conditions should encourage you to move forward with energy and assertiveness. Plant new ideas as seeds for projects and relationships that you want to develop as your cycle year moves forward. Use your leadership ability, but be aware that your forward-looking dreams may not be shared by everyone around you. Small pinches of consideration and tact sprinkled on new projects will be appreciated by all concerned.
Key number 4
Diplomacy and co-operation are the keys to success under this energy. Your long-term ventures may seem to be slowing down, but if you are patient, considerate and thorough, spectacular results are waiting in the future. Allow as much time as it takes to reach the goals you are aiming for. Concentrate on being extremely generous and sensitive, especially in your romantic and family life.
Key number 5
It's party time! Last month was a wallflower, this month is a bird of paradise. Follow the energy of this month, and be as flamboyant and out there as your courage will allow. Creativity will be available to you on the artistic front: writing, painting, photography and acting will come naturally under this energy. If you are not invited to parties, give one. Flap your social butterfly wings; prepare to meet long-time friends and make some new ones. This is a perfect time for getting away from the cold and into the sun. Walk in the sunshine—whenever Vancouver grants a few rays—but smile even when March rages.
Key number 6
Work! Work! Work! No matter how you cut it, this is a time of putting your nose to the grindstone, being serious, and taking care of responsibilities and details. This cycle month brings an extremely serious energy to your life, and the only way to manage it is to be dutiful, responsible and meticulous. Under this energy, carelessness or sloppiness is not forgiven. Cell phone use (including texting) while driving will attract policeman like flies to a large jar of honey. In all this dark brown energy, it is important to avoid falling into a rut. The lighter side of this energy is that it is one of the sexiest months of all.
Key number 7
This month you will feel an ants-in-your-pants energy. Staying inactive for long periods will frustrate and upset you. It is a time when you can easily flow with changing conditions. You have the strength now to clean up all situations that are holding you back. If you're thinking of moving, this is the time. Changes may occur unexpectedly in friendships and professional situations. You may be tempted to experiment in romantic situations. Your personal magnetism and sex appeal are very high now, and they are very likely to get you into trouble if you step outside your own boundaries of integrity. Flirting can be great fun — and possibly lethal.
Key number 8
This is a time of fireplaces and home-cooked meals, calling your mother and being sympathetic to the problems of a co-worker. You must concentrate on giving to your family and friends. especially in regard to serious and practical matters. Put some of your love into sorting out finances, taxes or insurance matters for someone who is not as adapt as you are under this energy. Home and house, family and relatives, spouses and lovers—and, oh yes, your children as well—all need special attention during this time. Although business matters will probably require some attention during this period, you will have more time available than usual to spend with your loved ones. This month has a positive vibration for dealing with emotional situations and matters of the heart.
Key number 9
Concentrate on spending time alone during the energy of this cycle month, preferably as free as possible from outside responsibilities. Materialistic ventures will not prosper now if they are the focus of your attention. This is the time when the spiritual hen must sit upon her nest. It is not time to strain after money or possessions. You must take care of family obligations, but try to allow enough free time to contemplate and meditate — and perhaps do yoga. This is not a time for expansion or radical changes. If you focus on the outer world, you are bound to miss important messages transmitted to your intuition. This is a good time for study and thinking about new projects, but not for putting them into action.

Scoble is right about RSS and blogging - this is why I agree
Scoble states it as it is:
"Here's my thesis: companies that have lots of bloggers will end up making better products, will end up having better marketing and PR, will end up making more profit at the end of the day, and will be more likely to have more than one "hit product" and will be more likely to last 100s of years."
Scoble is right, this is why I agree:
- Feedback. Without feedback, any product design decision is at best a guess. Guessing what the customer needs will only get you so far. Actually listening and understanding what the wants and giving it to them will get you a lot further.
- CMR, not CRM. The problem with the philosophy of Customer Relationship Marketing (CRM) is that the customers that want to manage the relationship with the company, not the other way around. Modern marketing turns the CRM concept on its head - Customer Managed Relationships (CMR). Customers want real relationships with companies. The most direct and productive relationship a consumer can have with a company is one where dialogue occurs with the actual people who design, create, support and market the product. The conversational nature of blogging enables CMR in a way that is scalable, personable and real.
- RSS, not email. Customers will increasingly want subscribe to your RSS feed and not your email newsletter. RSS gives the customer control of the relationship and their data (CMR, not CRM).
- Discoverability - The truth wins. No amount of marketing dollars will hide the fact that your customers think your product is crap if it is crap. Potential and existing customers will search before they buy. They will find the product bashing. Without the product maker's acknowledgment of the product's flaws, weaknesses and areas where the product can improve, the bashing will go on, unabated. Competitors that have better relationships with their customers than you and have better products than your because of the relationships, will outsell your products every time. Joining and learning from the conversation is the only way out.

It's that Monday morning of the year again.
The one when everyone realises too late that the Superloop Adelaide 500 traffic restrictions have started and it's going to take them much longer to get to work than normal.
Payneham and Lower North East Rd are expected to be the hardest hit this morning, with some commuters likely to have an extra 30 minutes added to their journey.
The road closures through the eastern side of the city started on Saturday but traffic conditions are always at their worst on the first Monday as it catches everyone returning to work and school unaware.
Don't let it be you! Close down this article now and get your morning going so you can leave earlier!
The full list of roads closed can be found here at the Superloop Adelaide 500 website.
The closures will also impact commuters using bus services.
Closures will continue until Wednesday 6 March.

Xiaomi has made quite an impact on the market bringing flagship powered smartphones at a fraction of the price and while it is still behind the big three, Samsung, Apple and Huawei, it still holds a healthy six percent market share in Europe, shipping around 3.4 million units in Q4 2018. It also had the highest annual growth of 62 percent in Europe, according to Canalys smartphone analysis.
The company already has moved to Poland, Spain, Italy, the UK, and plenty of other European countries but it is still hard to buy a device in an actual physical store.
Speaking to CNBC, Xiaomi's senior vice president, Wang Xiang, said that the company wants to go from fewer than 50 stores at the end of 2018 to more than 150 by the end of this year.
This is a big move and Xiang added that this is "a big target" for the company.

A lot of websites have already realized the importance of having a stable website hosting service provider. If you are looking for the best website hosting service provider that just lets you pay them a cheap price, here are some things that you have to do.
Quality and affordability are the first wo things that you must consider looking in a web hosting service provider
You may want to reconsider your options in website hosting service providers if you think that they are all expensive.

Below are some things that will enable you to find the right one without having to worry a lot if you are getting what you truly deserve.
Never buy into the services of free web host
Before finding a web hosting service provider, you have to know that cheap web hosting services are not the same as free web hosting services. If you want other people to be enjoying your website, you must steer clear from free web hosting services. Using free web hosting services to market your site is clearly a bad move in terms of ensuring that your website or brand gets its much needed sales. Even if you are not selling something in your website, it will still be a bad idea to use free web hosting. Once you sign up with the services of a free web host, you will not be having a lot of freedom posting whatever you like as you have to satisfy with the terms that they have established for your brand. In conclusion, just really stay away from the limited services that a free web host will be providing you.
Choosing reputable web hosting services providers that offer plans on a budget
Now, it seems that even the most expensive website hosting service providers ensure to give people on a budget the kind of hosting plans that will not go beyond the amount of money that they have set aside for website hosting services. When you get this kind of hosting plan at a cheap price, some features may be limited for you but you can always get them upgraded whenever you please.

Joy Behar went after Donald Trump's children on Tuesday when she bashed and mocked them on her ABC talk show "The View" on Tuesday. Behar even went so far as to claim that Trump has a family of "mediocrities."
Fox News reported that Behar said this during a segment in which "The View's" panel was discussing reports that Donald Trump Jr. and his sister Ivanka are in the middle of a brutal "Cold War" with one another that has them fighting for control of the family "dynasty.
"There's stories about them being a dynasty — that after Trump is gone, then the next idiot and then the next idiot and then the next idiot," Behar said. "This family is filled with mediocrities. Trump, to his credit, is a hideous, charismatic con man — that has a little potential for something. These other ones have nothing."

Objective reporting for the educated American.
Cohost Meghan McCain responded by defending Trump Jr., saying that he is very popular in the United States. However, McCain did not have kind words for Ivanka, who she claimed has not lived up to the "hype" that once surrounded her.
"It was fascinating that he, on the campaign trail, is one of the biggest fundraisers for the [Republican National Committee]," McCain said of Trump Jr., "that apparently in red America, he's like a folk hero and that he actually has turned into the person that's been basically the most beneficial for the administration when Ivanka, I still don't know what she does all day, hasn't necessarily lived up to the hype."
Cohost Abby Huntsman tried to defend the Trump kids by saying that she feels sorry for them, but Behar was not having any of it, mockingly responding by saying "Oh, boo hoo hoo." Huntsman then explained that she once spent "the whole day" with Ivanka and got the impression that the president's daughter disagreed with her father on "almost everything."
"When I interviewed Ivanka, I could see it in her face … that she wanted to tell me something that she couldn't," Huntsman said, adding that the first daughter has been faced with a difficult choice in her relationship with her father. Behar, however, refused to admit that Ivanka could be in a difficult position. Instead, she called on Ivanka to make the decision to oppose her father and "save the United States."
Cohost Sunny Hostin then chimed in by saying Ivanka should not even be in the White House, adding that the idea of a political dynasty was "dated."
"Why is Donald Trump Jr. thinking that he can run for office?" Hostin asked. "Just because their father is the president, doesn't make them heir apparent to anything. They need to work for everything that they have."

— The View (@TheView) September 10, 2019
Behar has frequently bashed Trump's children since he took office back in 2017. Early in 2017, when his wife Melania and 10 year-old son Barron were still living in New York City, Behar disrespected the boy by referring to him as "that child.
"Somebody find this out for me, the price that we're paying for losing the NEA, the National Endowment for the Arts, because we are paying for this woman to live in New York with that child," Behar said coldly.

Some people are convinced that dogs fear things by nature the same as they always bark on a postman. Nothing could be more mistaken. All these behaviours come from the smell of the certain place or person which dogs can sense and interpret. I was assisting the dog owners in their vet visit and observed their mistakes. Dogs were quite often paralysed by fear or fear was triggering aggression in them. I have seen dogs peeing or pooping from fear on the floor while waiting for a vet in waiting area.
All these places such as vet office or groomer room have specific smell that mainly consists of disinfectants. This type of scent is for every dog very stressful. It can be compared to our visit to a dentist and our fear associated with a tooth ache.
What I would advise all dog owners in this situation is:
"Everything we do with our dog become a habit, this habit after years turns to happiness".
We can start from a good touch, massaging our dog, in particular abdomen, legs, the area between abdomen and thigh or even mouth area. Our touch should be similar to prolonged massage rather than just petting and it should be associated with a command such as "doctor". We can use different commands in different situations. The best way of doing it is when our dog is tired, for example after a long walk which helps to reduce excessive energy. This should be done when our dog is sitting, lying on a chair, an armchair or a table. The important thing is to place our dog on an elevation, just like in vet's or groomer's office table. We can repeat this exercise few times and then we can ask one of our colleagues who are not emotionally bond with our dog to do the same exercise with our dog. Systematically repetitions of this exercise can guarantee that after a month our dog will be well prepared for visiting a vet or a groomer without feeling any stress.
We usually visit a vet in emergency situation. We should however stay calm and remember that dogs are the most empathetic animals living amongst us and therefore can feel our emotions. If we cannot stay calm, we should look for advice of specialist.

I was watching The View on ABC this week, and there was a heated discussion on the recent attack surrounding Jussie Smollett, which was primarily rooted in a discussion on race, and the LGBTQ community. However, one of the hosts, Megan McCain, had a different angle on the allegations. She stated the following:
"Jussie Smollett's a 'Sociopath' if he staged his own attack."
It caught my attention when she said this cause I had watched another recent interview with Robin Roberts and Smollett, and an expert in body language pointed out that he lacked eye contact when discussing the attack, which could connote he was a pathological liar.
Then a friend pointed out to me that he suffered TDS. I had to look it up cause I've never heard that term before.
Urban dictionary defines TDS, Trump Derangement Syndrome, as the following:
Unhappiness caused by the election of Donald Trump to the Presidency of the United States. Sufferers display an inordinate loathing for and preoccupation with Donald Trump.
One example of TDS could be the fact that Smollett desperately lied about being attacked by two white men screaming,"This is MAGA country!" On the flip side, people are reporting that this is about money, and he was looking to get sympathy to get a raise on the hit show Empire. My friend called this Celebrity Syndrome which I also have never heard of before, and I couldn't find a definition of it online but, I'd imagine it has something to do with entitlement, and becoming toxic by fame.
Now, I don't know what the guy has, BUT, it'd be nice to shift the dialogue on a national level to include information on this, for it is an opportunity for us to use this platform to educate others on Axis II disorders. Narcissistic Personality Disorders and Antisocial Personality Disorders are somewhat common language for people as they have been around for decades, but TDS is fairly new to me.
So the question now remains. If he does suffer from TDS, or gets clinically diagnosed with some other personality disorder, is he going to admit it? And should he admit it, if that is the case, will people show empathy and forgiveness? That is yet to be determined.
However, in conclusion, do I think Smollett has TDS? No. I think he pulled the Trump card to try and trump us so to speak. As far as the salary increase argument is concerned. Yes, I think that was the most obvious motivator to propel him to do such a thing so, one has to have some major underlying issue.
Having said that, if I had to point out one word to describe his issue. It's simple: Greed.

Ever since the Mothman was first sighted, people have tried to come up with explanations for what the witnesses have seen. They suggest that instead of Mothman being legendary creature, it is just a simple real world animal being misidentified. The eyewitnesses disagree and it has yet to be proven or dis-proven what they've actually seen.
Sandhill CraneWildlife biologist Dr. Robert L. Smith at West Virginia University told reporters that Mothman sightings fit the description of Sandhill Crane. A large American crane stands on average of five feet and has a seven-foot wingspan featuring circles of reddish coloring around the eyes. He said that the bird may have wandered out of its migration route. Some think the Sandhill Crane's call could be an explanation for the eerie and monstrous sound heard by some witnesses. There are no officially confirmed sightings of Sandhill Cranes in West Virginia, although there have been unconfirmed reports in the past.
On November 19th 1966, A reporter named Ralph Turner printed an article in The Herald Dispatch newspaper about his interview with Dr. Robert L. Smith. The article was called "That Mothman: Would You Believe a Sandhill Crane?".
Witnesses Disagree
Witnesses rejected the idea of the creature being a Sandhill Crane. The Sandhill Crane is known for its long neck and the Mothman may not even have a neck at all according to the urban legend.
The crane's portions are also off. The Mothman is usually reported as seven feet tall with a ten to fifteen foot wingspan meaning that he would be taller with larger wings than the Crane. Neither the Sandhill Crane or the Barred Owl can fly at speeds of over 100 mile per hour like the Mothman is said to have done in the Scarberry and Mallette Sighting. "I just wish Dr. Smith could see the thing" said Eyewitness, Marry Mallette.
Witnesses were shown photos of Sandhill cranes and other birds, including even pterodactyl, during investigations in West Virginia. "That's not the thing we saw" said Roger Scarberry when he saw the crane pictures. "This thing could never chase us like it did".
"Wrong color, too skinny. I've seen pictures of Sandhill cranes on TV and uh no, in my opinion, professor Smith of West Virginia University was a hundred percent wrong" said Eyewitness Tom Ury.
Mason County Sheriff George Johnson, who the Scarberry and Mallettes told their sighting to, commented that he believed the sightings were due to an unusually large heron. The descriptions of MothMan do not resemble a heron and his off handed comment was never really taken that seriously.
OwlsSkeptic Joe Nickell says that a number of pranks and hoaxes followed the publicity generated by the original reports. Nickell attributes the Mothman sightings to pranks, misidentified planes, and sightings of various types of owls, suggesting that the Mothman's 'glowing eyes' were actually red-eye effect caused from the reflection of light from flashlights or other bright light sources. Not to mention that Mothman's often headless description is similar to an owl's shape. In 2002, He published an article about this on page 20 and 21 of the March issue of the Skeptical Inquirer.
The reflector-like nature of the creature's eyes is revealing. As ornithologists well know, some birds' eyes shine bright red at night when caught in a beam from auto headlights or a flashlight. "This 'eyeshine' is not the iris color," explains an authority, "but that of the vascular membrane—the tapetum—showing through the translucent pigment layer on the surface of the retina" (Gill 1994).
The TNT area, which Joe visited both days and nights, is surrounded by the McClintic Wildlife Management Area which was then and is now a bird sanctuary. Owls, which exhibit crimson eyeshine, populate the area. Indeed, Steve Warner (2002), who works for West Virginia Munitions to produce .50-caliber ammunition in the TNT compound, told Joe Nickell there were "owls all over this place." Conversely, neither he nor a coworker, Duane Chatworthy (2002), had ever seen Mothman, although Warner pointed out he had lived in the region all of his life.
Because of Mothman's squeaky cry, "funny little face," and other features, including its presence near barns and abandoned buildings, Nickell identifies it as the common barn ow. One Skeptical Inquirer reader (Long 2002) insisted it was instead a great horned owl which, although not matching certain features so well, does have the advantage of larger size. It seems likely that various owls and even other large birds could have played Mothman on occasion.
Joe did some further research regarding eyeshine, learning that the barn owl's was "weak" and the great horned owl's only "medium." However the barred owl exhibits "strong" eyeshine (Walker 1974) and— according to David McClung (2002), wildlife manager at McClintic—is common to the area; indeed, it is even more prevalent there than the barn owl. It is also larger than the barn owl, which it somewhat resembles, and is "only a little smaller than the Great Horned Owl" (Kaufman 1996, 317). (Mounted specimens of these and other species of owls are profusely displayed in the West Virginia State Farm Museum near the McClintic preserve. Museum Director Lloyd Akers generously allowed me special access to examine and photograph them.)
Skeptic Joe Nickell thinks that in light of the evidence it seems very likely that the Mothman sightings were mostly caused by owls—probably more than one type.
Asa Henry's Owl
A man named Asa Henry shot and killed an owl, tentatively identified as a snowy owl, during the Mothman flap. Although only about two feet tall, a newspaper dubbed it a "giant owl" due to its wingspan of nearly five feet (Sergent and Wamsley 2002; 94, 99). In Point Pleasant Joe Nickell was able to view the mounted specimen and to speak with Mr. Henry's grandson, David Pyles. Himself a taxidermist, Pyles (2002), who is "very skeptical of Mothman," told Nickell that his grandfather always maintained that the Mothman flap ended after he had shot the bird. Jeff Wamsley appeared with the taxidermy Owl on an episode of Mysteries at The Museum. It now sits in public view at Point Pleasant's River Museum.
Flatwoods / Owlman
Owls are very likely responsible for other birdman sightings. One of the these is the 1952 case of the Flatwoods Monster that supposedly arrived in Flatwoods, West Virginia, aboard a flying saucer. Loren Coleman in his Mothman and Other Curious Encounters (2002) sees in that case "elements foreshadowing" the subsequent Mothman reports. However, as a Michigan Audubon Society publication concluded, Joe's investigative report on the case "convincingly demonstrates that the alleged flying saucer was really a meteor and the hissing creature from outer space was none other than a Barn Owl." (Those Monster Owls 2001).
Somewhat similarly, several sightings in 1976 in Cornwall, England, featured a "big feathered bird man" that was first seen "hovering over a church tower"—a common nesting place for barn owls (Kaufman 1996, 306). Appropriately, the entity became known as "Owlman" (Coleman 2002, 34–36).
As to Mothman, cryptozoologist Mark A. Hall (1998) has opined that it may be a hitherto undiscovered species of giant owl that has long existed in the Point Pleasant area. We can take this as an implicit concession that Mothman—of all the creatures known to science—most resembles an owl, except for size.
"Here then is the question separating the mystifiers from the skeptics: Is it more likely that there has long been a previously undiscovered giant species among the order strigiformes (owls), or that some people suddenly encountering a "monster" at night have misjudged its size?" says Joes Nickell. He asserts that latter possibility is supported by the principle of Occam's razor, that the simplest tenable explanation is to be preferred as most likely correct.

Shift knob DIY fun
Entry posted by theNomad ·
591 views
The "BMW" knob had released itself from its threaded insert so unless you had a gentle touch the knob would come off in your hand while rowing through the gears. While this can be amusing, especially for passengers, it can be a bit distracting.
I've had a dense plastic ball sitting around, much like a cueball, but slightly smaller. Around 1.75"
I drilled into it and used a dremel to hog out the hole to the same size as the insert. A little JB Weld later, a nice shift knob.
It's not too large, its s bit weighty which tends to help with shift feel, and the plastic will stay relatively cool regardless of the summer temps.
(Its not radioactive)
I had an aluminum shift knob in my Miata and had to keep a cloth in the car for summer driving.
Those seats have got to go!

Henry Cavill News
After recent photos, which Henry Cavill took with fans at The Botanist, one of the pubs of London, many of you have wondered what has happened to Henry's right eye? Indeed, if you look closely, you can see he's got quite a shiner. Now we can put the light on the story behind Henry's black eye.
Henry Cavill has published a new message to his fans on his charity website CavillConservation.com. Henry talks about achievements of Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust in saving the endangered species of animals, and introduces 'the Durrell Index' which, Henry hopes, will become an 'industry standard' for all the conservation organisations.
Henry Cavill's new movie, Stratton: First Into Action now officially has a director in the form of Simon West, Screendaily.com exclusively reports. We have been waiting for the name of the director since Duncan Falconer, the author of the novels about John Stratton, leaked some news on his Facebook page a week ago.
On the threshold of filming the new movie, Stratton: First Into Action, which tells the story of SBS operator John Stratton, Henry Cavill has recently started his training on the SBS program at the Royal Marines training camp on Dartmoor in Devon. What exactly does Henry's SBS training include and just how exhausting it will be? Let's look together.
ShortList Magazine teases us with this backstage photo of Henry Cavill doing a photoshoot sitting behind the wheel of a luxury car with a plane in the background. UPD: More pictures below!
After the huge wave of new promo for the forthcoming The Man From U.N.C.L.E., we got a little news about Henry Cavill's next project, action thriller Stratton: First Into Action based on the novels by Duncan Falconer. Duncan revealed, they have finally met with Henry, and the movie has got a director.
Following the treasures that were released yesterday along with the first trailer for the new Henry Cavill's movie The Man From U.N.C.L.E., today we got some more new movie stills. You can find them all in our gallery.
At long last, the first teaser trailer for Henry Cavill's next movie, The Man from U.N.C.L.E. has been released and we have it for you below.
After a few new movie stills and before the first official trailer, the first movie poster for The Man From U.N.C.L.E. has been released as well! Visit our The Man From U.N.C.L.E. section, where you can find all the posters and official movie stills we have so far, as well as tons of the other stuff.
When there's less than 9 hours to the first trailer for Henry Cavill's upcoming movie The Man From U.N.C.L.E. directed by Guy Ritchie, we got something really exciting. Four brand new The Man From U.N.C.L.E. movie stills featured Henry Cavill, Armie Hammer, Alicia Vikander, and Elizabeth Debicki have been released online. Enjoy them all!

It's been a good few weeks since Superbowl now but this American style of food is one of my favourites and always worth sharing. If you fancy trying out a dish with some real bit try these Kentucky Ribs with Sweet Potato Fries.
Using sweet potato for chips or wedges is fast becoming one of my favourite side dishes so if you've never tried replacing your usual potato sides with sweet potato, you should. It's delicious!
You need to make sure you plan ahead with this recipe and leave enough time as it's not a quick-fix dinner, but the length of cooking time means those ribs will be finger-licking good and super tender. Definitely worth the effort.
Kentucky Ribs With Sweet Potato Fries
2 kg pork ribs
85 g Newman's Own Kentucky Style Rub
100 ml cold water
6 medium sweet potatoes, washed
Sunflower oil, for frying
Sea salt
2 tsp freshly chopped rosemary
Preheat the oven to 170°C, (fan 150°C), Gas Mark 3.
Place the ribs in a roasting tin and coat with the rub. Pour 100 ml cold water into the base of the tin.
Cook the ribs in the oven and cook for about 3 hours until tender, turning occasionally and spooning with the sauce. If the ribs start to dry out, add a little more water and cover with foil.
Meanwhile, cut the sweet potatoes, lengthways into long thin strips about 1.5 cm thick. Place the chips in ice-cold water and leave for about 15 minutes. Drain from the water and pat dry with kitchen paper.
Heat the sunflower oil in a large saucepan or use a deep fat fryer, to 190°C. Cook the potatoes in 2 batches, for about 5 minutes until crispy. Drain on kitchen paper and sprinkle with the salt and rosemary. Serve the ribs, with the chips and a spoonful of coleslaw.
Serve with some fresh and crispy coleslaw and enjoy!
Newman's Own who is featured in this recipe is an all-profits-to-charity family favourite and has a range of salad dressings, BBQ sauces, pasta sauces and marinades which are available throughout the UK. Newman's Own has already donated over £1million to a wide range of charities in the UK alone and over £250 million donated around the world.

At the 2012 IPCPR trade show, Tatuaje introduced the newest version of its box-pressed Perfecto version of Fausto, Avion 12. It was the second year of the limited production cigar, which debuted the year prior alongside the Fausto. Both blends are based off of the non-commercial Tatuaje Thermonuclear, a cigar Pete Johnson created privately in 2005 and never formally released, and the Tatuaje T110, a modified Thermonuclear Johnson released in two batches for R. Field Wine Co. of Honolulu, HI in 2009.
There will be different version of the Avion in 2013 and then all three vitolas will remain in semi-regular production after that.
Here is what I said in my original review back in May of 2012:
I was a fan of the Avion 11, but the one thing I did not like was the larger size, as it seemed to just accentuate the strength that is present in the blend, sometimes to almost overwhelming levels new vitola fixes that problem nicely. Having smoked two of these new Avion 12, I honestly prefer it to not only the Avion '11, but also to any of the Fausto releases, as I think that even though the ring gauge is the same as the Avion 11, the smaller size, the box-press and the different vitola seems to enhance the sweetness and brings out the complexity that is present in the blend. Construction, burn and draw are wonderful, as is smoke production, and like the Avion 11, the Avion 12 is an easy box purchase for me when they are released.
Cigar Reviewed: Tatuaje Avion 12
- Country of Origin: Nicaragua
- Factory: My Father Cigars S.A.
- Wrapper: Ecuadorian Habano
- Binder: Nicaragua
- Filler: Nicaragua
- Size: 5 5/8 Inches
- Ring Gauge: 48/52
- Vitola: Box-Pressed Perfecto
- MSRP: $8.50 (Boxes of 20, $170.00)
- Release Date: August 2012
- Number of Cigars to be Released: Regular Production
Number of Cigars Smoked for Redux: 1
Appearance-wise, the Tatuaje Avion 12 is gorgeous, a very interesting vitola, a dark mocha brown wrapper almost totally seamless, but with a bit of tooth to it. It has a wonderful give when squeezed and is slightly box-pressed. The aroma coming from the wrapper is a strong barnyard, cedar, pepper and chocolate.
Flavor-wise, the Tatuaje Avion 12 starts out right off the bat with leather, dark chocolate, earth, coffee and slight cinnamon. There is both a maple sweetness and a great creaminess that comes and goes underneath the other notes, and they are both sometimes quite strong. The profile seems to get more creamy and less sweet as the cigar burns down and the black pepper on the retrohale stays at a fairly constant level until I put down the nub. The earth note gets stronger as the cigar progresses as well and is strongest right at the end of the cigar. Overall strength starts out in the medium range and ends just slightly below the full mark.
Construction-wise, both the burn and draw are excellent for the entirety of the cigar, even before the bulb of the Perfecto and I never had to relight during the whole smoke. The ash is solid and stays on for about an inch at a time. Smoke production is well above average, and the smoke is quite dense.
I loved the Avion 12 when I smoked a prerelease and I love it now. I still think it is the most flavorful and best balanced cigar out of all of the Fausto line and the vitola really suits the blend well. The construction is excellent for the whole smoke and the ever present black pepper on the retrohale really helps to enhance the other flavors in the profile. Having said all of that, the blend does not have quite as much sweetness or strength as it did when I first reviewed it, but other then that, it is essentially the same. With all of the cigars that Tatuaje released in 2012, the Avion 12 seems to get lost in the shuffle, and honestly, that is a shame.

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) said Monday that he plans to introduce a constitutional amendment barring the federal government or the courts from overturning state marriage laws. Citing the Supreme Court's "tragic and indefensible" refusal to take up same-sex marriage cases—essentially legalizing same-sex marriage in another 11 states—Cruz announced the proposal in a statement. He said he has already introduced legislation in the Senate to "protect the authority of state legislatures to define marriage," because "marriage is a question for the states." "And that is why, when Congress returns to session, I will be introducing a constitutional amendment to prevent the federal government or the courts from attacking or striking down state marriage laws," the potential 2016 GOP presidential contender announced. Cruz also accused the Supreme Court of enabling "judicial activism at its worst" by letting rulings by lower court judges that "redefine marriage" stand. He said the "Supreme Court is abdicating its duty to uphold the Constitution" and declared that "the fact that the Supreme Court Justices, without providing any explanation whatsoever, have permitted lower courts to strike down so many state marriage laws is astonishing." Cruz said that the Constitution "entrusts state legislatures, elected by the People, to define marriage consistent
It is absolutely incredible that judges of a human court, with neither religious expertise nor authority to define and control religious belief or practice can so superficially decide to ignore the lawis which have been the basis of civil marriage (one man and one woman) since the US Constitution was written and the American republic was founded.

Driving down from my friends' is even more harrowing. One recent week, I was terrorized when a pack of cyclists, who were racing downhill, passed my car and cut in front, causing me to swerve into a ditch. With near-misses unnerving motorists, residents and their visitors on a daily basis, common sense now makes it necessary to restrict bicycling. A compromise could require bicyclists to get a permit and sign an acknowledgment of enforced rules, as well as a waiver of liability to motorists. If not entirely restricted, there should be a limit of two early morning hours.
Further, when bikers reach the intersection at Skyline Boulevard, they brazenly congregate on both sides and on the road itself, all while talking on their phones, drinking, texting, and checking the stats of their rides. For a motorist making a left turn from the southbound lane of Skyline onto Old La Honda, where cyclists have congregated, it is more frightening than being chased on a bike by a pack of wild, rabid dogs. The motorist's choice is: Do I take out these bikers or get broadsided by a northbound car coming around the curve on Skyline?
Also discouraging is the rudeness I have encountered when I ask bikers for compliance to road-use regulations. To further neglect this problem is asking for continued tragedies, lower property values, and loss of the rights of life, liberty, and happiness of Woodside residents and their guests — including delivery and emergency vehicles!

Though slave to him I plan to kill,
From here on in
I mean to do the things I will.
I mean to do my master still.
I'll bow and scrape with grace.
I'll "Master" him
As if I knew my place.
But I will feign and learn what's human;
Know this thing that is a woman;
Study how to hide my curse,
But call it down with words far worse
Than any I was ever taught,
Till I have all I sought.
I will begin, this day, to be
More powerful than he.
Maybe I'll know the word that he calls fear,
And pour it like a poison in his ear.
My schooling will begin today,
Before he ends this sickly play
Of love — whatever that may be —
And what he calls forgiveness.
Perhaps, some day beyond tomorrow,
I'll take up conning sorrow.

As Catholics, we are called upon to imitate Mary's "virginally integral" faith, hope and charity
Faith is God's gift to created persons who are entirely dependent on Him. The proper response to this gift is reverent obedience. Christian faith is characterized by a humble and reverent submission to what God has revealed. Vatican II's Dogmatic Constitution on Divine Revelation (Dei Verbum) has this to say: "'The obedience of faith' (Rm 16:26; cf. Rm 1:5; 2 Cor 10: 5-6) 'is to be given to God who reveals, an obedience by which man commits his whole self freely to God, offering the full submission of intellect and will to God who reveals,' and freely assenting to the truth revealed by him. To make this act of faith, the grace of God and the interior help of the Holy Spirit must precede and assist, moving the heart and turning it to God, opening the eyes of the mind and giving 'joy and ease to everyone in assenting to the truth and believing it.'" (Dei Verbum, No. 5).
For many if not most Catholics today, obedience to revealed truth seems difficult if not impossible. The idea of submitting one's mind and will to another authority is viewed as repugnant. And this largely because, as Dr. Dietrich von Hildebrand reminds us, "The egocentric sovereignty that modern man arrogates to himself bans everything that has the character of coming from above, of imposing bonds upon us, and of calling for an adequate response. Modern man also shuns all the factors in life which are gifts, which he cannot grant to himself: they remind him of his dependence upon something greater than himself and above himself. Thus truth in its implacable sovereignty – absolute truth that judges our reason instead of being judged by it – is denied." (The New Tower of Babel: Modern Man's Flight from God, p. 19).
This is most unfortunate for St. Thomas Aquinas reminds us that, after the virtue of religion, obedience is the most perfect of all the moral virtues. And this because the virtue of obedience unites us more closely to God than any of the other virtues, insofar as it detaches us from our own will. For the main obstacle to union with God is self-will.
Obedience unites us to God and enables us to share habitually in His life. Obedience subordinates our will directly to the will of God and, as a consequence, all of our other faculties since these are subordinated to our will.
When we offer our wills as a sacrifice to God through obedience, we enter into communion with God, since we no longer have any other will but God's will. Only then can we make the words of Jesus in His agony our own words: "Not my will, but thine be done." This conformity of our will to the Divine will becomes one with charity. As St. Thomas reminds us, love effects primarily a union of wills.
This is the teaching of St. John, the beloved Apostle. After teaching us that he who claims to love God and keeps not His commandments is a liar, the Apostle declares: "But he that keepeth his word, in him in very deed the charity of God is perfected; and by this we know that we are in him" (1 John 2:5). This is the teaching of Jesus Himself, Who tells us that to keep His commandments is to love Him: "If you love me, keep my commandments" (John 14:15).
True obedience is, in reality, a genuine act of love. And this genuine love, this genuine conformity to the Divine will, purifies us from sin. Moreover, this conformity to the Divine will is what works out our reformation. It is, after all, the disordered love of pleasure - to which we yield through either weakness or malice - which has deformed us.
Happily, as we strive to be perfect as our heavenly Father is perfect (Matthew 5: 48), we have a most perfect model of faith, hope and charity in the Blessed Virgin Mary. Mary is all holy. Her earthly life was characterized by perfect harmony with the person and redeeming work of her Son. Pope John Paul II reminded us that, "The Council urged the faithful to look to Mary so that they may imitate her 'virginally integral' faith, hope and charity. To preserve the integrity of faith is a demanding task for the Church, which is called to constant vigilance even at the cost of sacrifice and struggle. The Church's faith is not only threatened by those who reject the Gospel message, but especially by those who, in accepting only part of the revealed truth, refuse to share fully in the entire patrimony of the faith of Christ's bride. Unfortunately, this temptation, which we find from the Church's beginning, continues to be present in her life, urging her to accept revelation only in part, or to give the Word of God a limited, personal interpretation in conformity with the prevailing mentality and individual desires. Having fully adhered to the Word of the Lord, Mary represents for the Church an unsurpassable model of 'virginally integral' faith, for with docility and perseverance she accepts the revealed truth whole and entire…" (General Audience of August 20, 1997).
Mary accepted revealed truth whole and entire. She fully adhered in obedience to the Word of God. Shall we do any less?

Paul, I know that because you preach this total fidelity to the Church's teaching you are (at least for now) ostracized by your local Church.
But hang in there. You are a voice crying in the wilderness. And for that you are hated. But you are in excellent company.
God bless you!
We're too proud today. We think we don't need God and can do everything ourselves. How has this attitude worked out for us? Today everything is in a shambles.
We are too proud.
- Paul Anthony Melanson said...
Shall we give Jesus only partial obedience? If we hold back our love, which is shown by our obedience (John 14: 15), can we honestly say that we really love Jesus?
- Paul Anthony Melanson said...
I am constantly being told that I am "intolerant" because I refuse to condone extramarital sex, contraception, abortion, homosexuality and a host of other sinful actions. But as Archbishop Fulton Sheen reminded us: "Christian love bears evil, but it does not tolerate it. It does penance for the sins of others, but it is not broadminded about sin. The cry for tolerance never induces it to quench i...ts hatred of the evil philosophies that have entered into contest with the Truth.
It forgives the sinner, and it hates the sin; it is unmerciful to the error in his mind. The sinner it will always take back into the bosom of the Mystical Body; but his lie will never be taken into the treasury of His Wisdom.
Real love involves real hatred: whoever has lost the power of moral indignation and the urge to drive the buyers and sellers from the temples has also lost a living, fervent love of Truth.
Charity, then, is not a mild philosophy of "live and let live"; it is not a species of sloppy sentiment. Charity is the infusion of the Spirit of God, which makes us love the beautiful and hate the morally ugly."
I will continue to hold this Catholic truth and live and defend it until I am silenced in the name of "tolerance."
I believe in love. And there is no authentic love without truth. Only a sad counterfeit.
Excellent post and comments!

I don't have New Years resolutions because I rather choose March, my birthday month, as my month of betterment. So this year I've decided on a few things that I will do this month and continue doing as part of a self improvement lifestyle.
The first of the many challenges / resolutions:
To tell the people I love that I love and appreciate them.
Long list of people, but I realised that I love them all for different reasons and they are a beautiful part of my life. It also helps weed out dead weight, by questioning my association with unnecessary or casuals who add nothing to my being and whom I can live without.
It's refreshing and frightening.

Samsung DeX Confirmed: Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 Plus Docking Station Available For Pre-order Now
What is the DeX Docking Station?
Samsung has confirmed the cost and release of its new Samsung DeX docking station, with this latest innovative gadget available for pre-order now.
The Samsung DeX enables users to turn their Samsung Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 Plus phones into a desktop computer and attach peripherals such as a keyboard for a full PC experience, supporting the credibility of rumors circulating over previous weeks.
The brand new Galaxy S8 series is definitely powerful enough to fire up a PC-like experience and the Samsung DeX makes this a reality. Cost and specification information for the Samsung DeX leaked last week ahead of the Official unveiling, however not much information was available regarding the DeX docking station at that point.
Samsung offered additional information about this device when it unveiled the new Samsung Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 Plus, stating that the Samsung DeX station will maximize the devices potential and enable an excellent PC experience.
"Leveraging the processing power of the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 Plus for enhanced productivity, Samsung DeX is a unique solution that transforms these Android-based smartphones into secure desktops," Samsung touts. "With DeX, users can easily display and edit data from their phone, making working from a smartphone on the go faster and smarter."
Samsung DeX Price And Release
Samsung has officially listed the DeX docking station on its website with the gadget now available for pre-order at $149.99, ready to ship in "late April."
The Corporation doesn't tell us the release date, but the Samsung DeX docking station will likely become available at the same time as the Samsung Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 Plus smartphones, which will hit store shelves globally on April 28th. US consumers will get their hands on the smartphones a week earlier, on April 21st. Leading us to believe the DeX Docking station could be available for U.S. customers earlier than other markets.
The Samsung DeX docking station is particularly interesting because it brings a brand new custom interface based on Android. This appears to have a similar appearance to the instantly recognizable Microsoft Windows Operating System. The U.I. is specially designed to work well with a keyboard and mouse. Samsung has also teamed up with Adobe and Microsoft to ensure DeX Docking Station compatibility with Microsoft Office and Adobe mobile apps, including Lightroom Mobile and Acrobat Reader.
[the_ad id="4909″]
Samsung Galaxy S8 Desktop Like Experience
"The Samsung DeX Station enables you to turn your Galaxy S8 or Galaxy S8 Plus into a true desktop PC experience," reads the description on the official Samsung DeX product page. "By docking the Galaxy S8 or Galaxy S8+ into the DeX Station, your phone will launch a special DeX mode on the connected external monitor and applications can be opened in multiple separate windows. Connect a mouse, keyboard, and Ethernet cable for added productivity."
The Samsung DeX docking station is only compatible with the latest Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 smartphones, but it would be a surprise if future flagships weren't also compatible.
The docking station is available for $149.99 at this moment in time. However Samsung might offer it as a packaged bundle in some markets in late April, when release date approaches for the Samsung Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 Plus.
Share your thoughts on the new Samsung DeX docking Station below. Are you as excited as we are about this new innovation within mobile computing?

A professional, modern and dynamic identity that targets both building contractors and architect markets.
I was approached by SMART Balustrades, a market leader in handrails and balustrading systems, to develop their new identity, pushing their brand forward within its industry. The client wanted a professional, modern and dynamic identity that would target the building contractors and architect markets.
The logo created utilises recognised shapes and structures within the industry to create an identifiable logo marque which can be used across various mediums in both print and digital. The simple icons represent handrails and stairs, whilst the bold colour palette puts them at the forefront against competitors, creating a memorable, confident brand.
As well as the brand identity, I also developed the website, providing a user-friendly experience for both existing and potential new customers/clients. This has helped to promote SMART Balustrades as a strong brand, providing a professional service within the industry.

Zalmoxes is an extinct genus of rhabdodontid ornithopod dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous of Romania which was once Hațeg Island. The genus is known from specimens first named as the species Mochlodon robustum in 1899 by Franz Nopcsa before being reclassified as Rhabdodon robustum by him in 1915. In 1990 this name was corrected to Rhabdodon robustus by George Olshevsky, and in 2003 the species was once more reclassified, this time as the type species Zalmoxes robustus. Zalmoxes refers to the Dacian deity Zalmoxis, and robustus to the robustness of the remains. In 2003 another species was named, Zalmoxes shqiperorum, named for the Albanian name for Albania.

From the O'Dea family at Windowrie, David has been farming for over 50 years and the driving force of his family's organic practices.
PF Organic Shiraz by David O'Dea, Central Ranges 2016
Electric purple colour. Light plummy fruit driven nose with licorice, violets, dried currants, reductive purple cabbage and easy oak. Much lighter in body than the alcohol may imply, it dances between those bitter sweet plums and tart herbaceous licorice. Balanced, solid but missing any x factor for me. Will appeal to the no added preservatives brigade.
Alc: 14%
