If politics is bare-knuckle boxing, South Africa has a heavyweight champion.
In the game of politics, those fighting for an advantage see anonymity as an enemy – it suggests inactivity or indifference to the needs of the populace. This is especially the case for any leader – they need to be seen to be considered in command.
In South Africa, few politicians know this better than Julius Malema, disruptive leader of the far-left Economic Freedom Fighters.
It's fair to say that outside the president, no other politician is a more prominent player in the news. There are reasons for that.
Firstly, he is interesting. While South African politics is never short of drama, few politicians purposefully step into the light and spark the interest of the media. He is well-aware of the value of the photo op, and willingly draws the media like moths to a flame.
Secondly, he knows the noisy wheel gets the attention – he's been a political activist since the age of 9. While most boys were playing games, he was scrapping it with the big guys shaping South Africa's democratic political identity.
It helped forge his own identity as a fighter, and an unsparing one at that.
His words as fists, he's not afraid to strike below the belt. He's been accused of inciting violence and stoking racial hatred, charges he simply dismisses even when they've resulted in severe discipline. He's also not afraid to shift allegiance – one minute offering to kill for former president Jacob Zuma, the next waging war against him.
If there's an opponent in his sights, it's anyone he considers an enemy of 'the people' – a broad term, meaning anyone who thinks themselves downtrodden by 'the elite'. Opponents are rejected as 'counter-revolutionary'. It's classic populist messaging, and earned him various labels including 'fascist', 'racial nationalist', 'freedom-fighter', 'liberator', even 'South Africa's Che Guevara'.
That has served him well in his political bouts in his fight for a place in parliament. But his responsibility now as a lawmaker means his activism should respect the law. His recent calls for anyone to occupy unoccupied land are, in terms of the country's constitution, illegal.
History suggests he probably doesn't care.
Love Julius Malema or hate him, but what you cannot do is ignore him.

I'm entering a new phase in my working life.
For almost six years, I have been on the desk working nights and weekends, putting out a daily newspaper. Now, I have a new job title:
Softball writer.
I don't know much about softball. I could compare it to baseball, but there are distinct differences between the sports. For one, baseball pitchers throw on a mound. Softball pitchers throw from the circle, which is on a flat surface. I just realized that this week.
I'm going to my first softball game Tuesday, a nonconference matchup between two of the area's best teams. I'm not writing much about it, maybe eight inches or so, but it's still nerve-wracking. Will my writing suck? Will I say something stupid to the coaches? Will I even understand what's happening? I shadowed one of our writers at a basketball game during the winter. I tried to keep score and follow the action, but afterward, I felt as if I had never seen a basketball game before. You have to develop new eyes for the game when you're a reporter.
Luckily, I haven't been intimidated when talking to coaches over the phone. I think taking prep calls on busy Friday and Saturday nights rids you of your fear. And when I have had questions about terms or rules of the game, coaches have been pretty good about not making me feel like a dumbass, even if I'm beating myself up internally.
I'm writing a season preview to run at the end of March, so I'm reading up on the area's recent softball history and taking copious notes from interviewing coaches, all while trying to learn what this sport is about. I think my main problem is time management. I could spend my weekend calling coaches and still not feel as if I've done enough. I need to force myself to spend time away from work. After all, I'm going to be plenty immersed in it this spring.

Exciting! This this a full time transition, or are you still working the night copy desk on occasion too? Say hello to the folks at Tri for me please.ReplyDelete
I'm on the desk 3 1/2 to four nights a week. On Tuesday, I covered a doubleheader, went back to the office, wrote the story and designed a page. Wednesdays are my writing/get-my-poo-together days. I'm on the desk Thursday through Saturday, save for when I cover a game. Most of the big games are falling on Tuesdays this season.ReplyDelete
I don't know what the summer will hold, and I'm guessing we're keeping the same beats for fall and winter, which means I would be on the desk full time unless my boss decides to make a change. I wouldn't mind doing volleyball.

Unexpected opportunities create "fruitful" experiences in the classroom

Unexpected circumstances stepped in this week and provided a learning opportunity to demonstrate that if you are flexible and creative, you can truly be grateful for all the food we have and minimize waste of these precious resources.
The children in our classroom have a "snack day" on a monthly calendar so that they may bring in food to share with their classmates. This week (and last) we received a bounty of fresh fruit. With the addition of a donation from one of our teachers, we ended up with ripe bananas, grapes, pears, and several pints of raspberries. Because I always try to stress that we never want to waste food unless absolutely necessary, I had to alter plans for cooking and snack preparation. And I'm OK with that. Keeps me on my toes!
The children requested pancakes, so the raspberries became a delicious sauce. The grapes and pears became a yummy fruit salad, and the bananas were perfect for a loaf of banana bread.
(Additional teacher challenge: We have numerous dietary restrictions this year, so I am getting to know all about cooking with gluten free ingredients. I am currently running into consistency issues, but I will keep at it and post my results.)
Enjoy the following photos from out "waste not, want not" week.
New Recruits and Old Pros: Cooking again!

We're back for another school year in our Montessori community, and these kids are ready to cook! Our returning friends went straight for the kitchen to see if anything had changed, while our new students followed to explore the tools and gadgets.
Given the success of our cooking endeavors last year, I changed very little in the environment. I found a bigger shelf in the garage, and after a quick coat of fresh paint, we had a much more flexible storage area…
I also added a few more child-sized stools to keep under the counter so the children could just pull them out for a visit with friends while waiting for items to bake. This was a really "social" time last year!
Since my veterans were ready to jump right in, I asked them to choose what recipe would be good to show our new students. The answer, of course, was muffins. We settled on blueberry.

Welcome May!
The Oak room loves spring. We have been spending a lot of time outdoors, witnessing and experiencing nature and its changes this season brings. Young children have such a natural love of nature and it brings us great joy to watch their observations and explorations of their outdoor environment.
We wanted to send out a special thank you to our families and students who helped make our international fair and silent auction a success. It was a beautiful day of visiting with friends and enjoying what each classroom had put together for the continents of the world. Our silent auction raised over $1,000.00, which will be allocated to a CGM scholarship opportunity.
May is a busy month at CGM. The following are upcoming events and activities:
Elementary Cook Out and Open House – May 13, 5-8 pm.
This is a restaurant style cookout organized by our elementary classroom. The children serve customers, make the food and expedite the orders. Just like a real restaurant! We are also using this as an opportunity to open our building for family and friends to tour our beautiful school; so if you know of anyone looking for preschool/elementary school options for their children, please invite them!
Thursday, May 26th is our last day of school. This will be a half day for all students.
Dismissal times are:
- Oak Room: 11:30 am
- Tulip Room: 11:45 am
- Maple Room 12:00 pm
On Wednesday, May 25th, we will be celebrating summer birthdays with an ice cream sundae party! Children whose birthdays fall during our summer break may bring in their favorite ice cream topping for the celebration.
Please Note:
We will be spending more time outside this month. If you would like your child to wear sunblock, we will be happy to apply it for our afternoon time outdoors. We ask that all sunblock brought in is in spray form and labeled with your child's name.
We understand that this is a very busy time for our families with work and numerous after school activities. Please help us keep our children safe in the school parking lot by approaching our building slowly and showing courtesy to those that are also trying to get children in and out of the building. If we all take our time and remain aware, we can work together to make sure everyone arrives and leaves in a safe and peaceful manner. Thanks for your understanding and cooperation!

Savya hard at work on place value.
What a wonderful January! We learned all about Antarctica and the animals that live there. The children all returned from break ready to learn, so our classroom has been a very busy place. No doubt you also heard all about our fun in the snow!
February will be filled with great learning opportunities and a lot of fun with friends. We will be exploring Asia; tasting interesting food, celebrating Chinese New Year, and discovering interesting facts about life on this continent.
We will be celebrating Valentine's Day on Wednesday, February 10th. On this day, we gather as a group to pass out Valentine cards to friends. If you child would like to participate we currently have 17 students in our classroom. Please have your child sign only their name on the cards as this makes distribution go more smoothly.
We would like to welcome Lincoln Davis back to our classroom. We have had fun getting re-acquainted with him!
Please join us for our parent education night, "What is my child doing all day?," on Tuesday, February 2nd at 6:30 pm. This hour-long session will answer questions about meeting state standards, the three year classroom cycle and take you through how your child spends their day. Child care will be available for $2.00 per child.
Please Note:
Please take a few minutes to make sure you child has a change of warm clothing in their cubby. (Including socks; they are often forgotten.) Unless the weather is inclement, we will be spending time outdoors. Our school policy is 32 degrees or higher for outside activities.

What's Happening in the Oak Room
Welcome back! Hopefully all of our families had a restful and fun-filled holiday break. We are ready to start our second half of the school year with more learning and laughter with our CGM community!
We are excited to get started with our planning of the Spring International Fair and Art Auction. Our room will be displaying information about and artifacts from Australia and Africa. If there is anyone interested in assisting with this fun and educational event, please let us know!
Since we are in the colder months of the year, we will take this time to feature Antarctica and the Polar Regions in our geography area. The children are particularly fond of this continent, being that it's only full-time inhabitants are of the polar bear and penguin variety!
We have two new students starting in our classroom this month. Welcome to our new friend Elliott and our returning friend Lincoln! We look forward to getting to know you!

The holiday season is officially upon us. We all had a wonderful time learning about Diwali, the Indian Festival of Lights, and Thanksgiving, complete with a feast shared with friends! As we say goodbye to November, we look forward to a very busy December celebrating Christmas, Hanukkah, and St. Nicholas.
The next stop on our geography studies…Europe! We will examine and explore European customs, food, landmarks and animals.

Decorating cookies for our Halloween celebration!
Wow! October went by so fast! We are having such a great time in the Oak room and it goes quickly. We've spent the last weeks studying biomes, North America, South America, Classes of Vertebrates, and so much more! The children have all settled in to their individual routines and have evolved into a very cohesive classroom community!
Welcome Max! He is 3, and is our new student that joined us last week. We look forward to getting to know our new friend!
Thank you to our parents that came in for conferences! We really enjoy this time with our families and it's always so fun for us to hear stories from their home life!
Upcoming Events
Get out your calendars! It's a busy month!
November 11th is our Chick-Fil-A Spirit fundraiser. When you dine ANYTIME that day, a percentage of your bill will be given to our school. This is a wonderful family-oriented establishment that often donates to local schools and organizations, so let's show our support and help our school in the process. Be sure to get the flyer from Brenda for your meal to count for our school.
That same night, November 11th, after your Chick-Fil-A dinner, join us for Dad's Night from 6:30 pm -7:30 pm. This is a great opportunity for some one-on-one time with your child and they are so proud to show you their classroom!
Don't worry Moms! Your turn is the following week, on November 18th. Same time, from 6:30 pm -7:30 pm. We hope to see you there!
Thanksgiving will be here soon. We will be out of school from the 25th-27th of November. We will resume school on the following Monday.

We hope everyone had a fun and safe Halloween. We are looking forward to the start of a very exciting holiday season!

Enjoying "homemade" popsicles on a hot September day!
September provided all of us with many memories and a lot of new experiences and learning opportunities. We had apple tasting, learned the difference between vertebrates and invertebrates and also began learning all about the parts of a biome! The children have also been exploring our world as well as the landmarks, artifacts and animals of North America.
Welcome Faby! Our Spanish teacher has begun making her visits to our classroom on Wednesdays. She is teaching the children vocabulary, conversational phrases and delighting them with storybooks they are familiar with, only written in Spanish! I look forward to all that she will teach us!
Upcoming Events
Please tell all of your family and friends about our Open House this Sunday, October 4th, from 2:00-4:00 pm. All families; current, past and potential, are welcome for a tour of our beautiful school.
It is conference time! Hopefully everyone has had the opportunity to sign up for a time to meet with us to discuss your child's growth in the classroom and address any questions or concerns you may have regarding their progress. Sign up sheets are available at Brenda's desk.
Fall break will be here soon. We will not have school from October 12-23. Hopefully you will be able to spend some time outdoors with your child to observe all of the changes in our environment that this time of year yields. The children are more than welcome to bring in an item they have found to put in our "nature basket."
And finally; upon our return from fall break we will be spending some time celebrating one of the kids' favorite holidays, Halloween. We will allow costumes for a quick "parade" on Wednesday morning. (Parents are welcome!) We ask that the children please leave any weapons or masks at home.

What's Happening in the Oak Room
Owen's face says it all! We are learning so much about our environment in the Oak Room. The children have been exploring the outdoors and having many discoveries comparing what is "living" and "nonliving" and the differences between the air, land and water that make up our earth.
The children all seem to be settling in nicely and we are enjoying our time together. We currently have (2) 2-year-olds, (3) 3-year-olds, (3) 5-year-olds, (4) 5-year-olds, and one 6 year-old. This is a near perfect age mix for a Montessori classroom! And it shows! Our older children are very helpful with their younger peers and our small group lessons have been very effective.
Fall will be here soon and that means APPLES! This is truly a wonderful time of year as we get to compare different varieties of this delicious fruit, study its life cycle and bake some yummy treats! We look forward to the trees changing so that we can observe the striking fall colors in our outdoor environment.
With the coming fall, we would like to remind you to please check your child's change of clothes at school and update them according to the season. Often it is cool during the morning and warmer in the afternoon during this time, so we recommend a light jacket or sweatshirt. Your child may keep one here at school if that is more convenient. Thanks for your assistance in this matter.
This month we will begin our study of the continents. While we start with a more "general" exploration, we do delve into each continent and discover interesting facts about its climate, culture, animals and landmarks. If you or your child have any artifacts to share from different countries we would love to see them!
Thanks to our families for contributing the healthy snacks for the children to bring in. Please consult our website for the September snack calendar at www.centergrovemontessori.com.

We are ready for a new school year to begin! We are looking forward to seeing all of our old friends and getting to know some new ones! There is so much to see and do in the Oak room and we are excited to get started!
Following area few highlights from our parent orientation:
We understand that saying goodbye to loved ones is one of the most challenging parts of your child's day. We recommend a quick and upbeat "see you soon," and a wave as you go. Prolonging the process is stressful (often times, more for the parent) and not a great way to start the day. If you are still nervous after you leave, give Brenda a call in awhile. She'll be happy to assure you that your child is fine!
As many of you know, snack is available to the children throughout our morning work cycle. The children take turns bringing in a snack for the class on their assigned day. If you did not get a snack calendar at the parent orientation, there is one available on our website. The snack bag will be hanging in your child's cubbie when it is their turn. Bringing a snack is always optional, so please just return the bag if you choose not to participate.
Lunch is not provided by the school. Children need to bring their own lunches and store them in their cubbies. If they have an item that needs to be kept cold, please include an ice pack in their lunch, as we do not have refrigerator space available for that purpose.
All children under 5 years of age are required to participate in rest time. They are provided with their own cot, sheet, blanket and pillow in their nap bag at school. There is no need to bring any of these things from home. If your child has a special item that they sleep with, they may bring it, but it needs to be small enough to fit into their bag.
Please make sure that your child has 2 changes of clothing to keep at school, including socks. We are known to get a bit wet or dirty when working outside!
The best way for you to truly understand what happens in our classroom is for you to come and observe or sign up to volunteer! Please just let Brenda know and she can help you schedule a convenient time.
We have a wonderful Facebook group that includes families and teachers. Please just search for Center Grove Montessori and request to be a part of this private group. I post pictures weekly and it's a great way to get to know our other families. Please let me know if you do not want your child's picture posted.
I am here as your partner in your child's education. Please feel free to approach me with any concerns or questions you have about our class or your child in particular. I am available most days when our class dismisses at 3:00 pm. You may also email me at [email protected]
Again, I am really looking forward to sharing in your child's experience at Center Grove Montessori.
It's going to be a fun year!
Miss Holly

United through to the next round of the county cup
PUBLISHED: 12:01 15 November 2017 | UPDATED: 12:01 15 November 2017
Nailsea United narrowly defeated Hengrove Athletic Reserves to move into the next round of the Somerset Senior Cup.
Hengrove Athletic Res 1
Nailsea United 2
For the third week running Nailsea were away from home, this time the short journey to South Bristol to play Hengrove Athletic Reserves in the third round of the Somerset Senior Cup.
Hengrove had the early pressure but the United defence were not unduly troubled before they took the lead on 10 minutes. A quality cross from by Ben Pratt was controlled by Nathan Shipway before he found the back of the net.
United doubled their lead on 25 minutes when a long kick by debutant keeper Owen Adamson fell to Adam Marsden, who created space before calmly placing the ball to the side of the keeper for a well-taken goal.
Nailsea switched off with two minutes to go before half time allowing the home side a way back into the game which they duly took to bring the deficit to one goal.
After the break, Hengrove hit the bar from a free kick on 62 minutes. The final 20 minutes were mainly fought in the midfield with no side having an advantage. Nailsea were grateful to Owen Adamson in the 86th minute when he bravely dived at the feet of an attacker as Nailsea held out to reach the quarter-finals of the cup.
This was a fighting display by a young Nailsea side and Owen Adamson can be pleased with his first game in the senior side.
On Saturday, United are at home at last to reigning champions Watchet Town, kick-off 2.30pm.

Performer: Sheila E.
Sunday, June 26 @ 8P/7C
Hailing from Oakland, CA, Sheila E. is one of the best percussionists of our time. By the time she was 20 years old, she'd played with the likes of George Duke, Diana Ross, Marvin Gaye, Herbie Hancock and Lionel Richie.
In 1978, Sheila E. met Prince while she was performing with her father. The two went on to collaborate on the Purple Rain recordings. She eventually branched out to have a solo career, releasing several albums, including The Glamorous Life and Sex Cymbal.
During Black Girls Rock! 2015, Miss E. brought her artistry to a whole new generation of music lovers. She'll do that yet again on Sunday, June 26 at 8P/7C.

Every journey starts with one small step...Get Started
Leadership is inherently about taking risk, risks with people and risks with situations. It is the ability to judge when risk has to be taken and mitigating that risk whilst understanding how much risk needs to be taken that truly marks out a good leader. Humans are naturally risk averse, their instincts are designed to protect them and therefore they like to live within their comfort zone. And yet if we were all to live within our comfort zone mankind would not be progressing and pushing at the natural and technological boundaries in the way that we are. Let us look at the recent oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. The ability to drill in that depth of the ocean was a risk but a risk worth taking, however to do it with a paucity of planning for contingencies should an accident happen and the lack of the necessary safety measures to prevent an ecological disaster was not. Leaders will always serve several masters in their decision making and leaders need to remember the moral component of risk taking in all their deliberations.
Continuous improvement and development are all about risk management. As to progress an organisation has to learn and to learn there has to be experimentation and with experimentation comes failure. Climbing a ladder involves a risk and we naturally mitigate it. For it is 'laddership' that is so important in leadership and the true understanding of risk. One step at a time the more competent the more confident and yet that confidence should never be allowed to become over confidence. 'Laddership' is about rungs and levels and risk can be viewed this way.
Humans naturally remain in their Comfort Zone Bubbles if they believe they are going to be criticised for experimentation and yet it is experimentation that leads evolution in whatever sphere. A blame free culture where experimentation is encouraged is where true development will happen. This normally happens when an organisation is in the doldrums or has hit rock bottom as it is often only then that leaders are happy to take the necessary risks for experimentation as they have nothing to lose. Hence the cycle of moving from prominence to the also rans always repeats itself unless leaders are prepared to take risks and empower their people. Look at the rise and fall of an empire it starts with a drive a hunger that empowers risk and ends as its exponents clutch the comforts they have made their masters and are so frightened of losing.
To empower people the overarching philosophy in any organisation has to be a positive one. How do humans best learn through positive encouragement or negative criticism? Positivity and praise are key elements that underpin a risk culture as they prevent the blame being passed and hence people avoiding risk. Key is to ensure that responsibility is delegated downwards whilst accountability remains at the highest level.
Risk must be taken consciously and hence an organisation and its leaders need to be aware of the risk they are taking. This requires good communication practices and a clear understanding on expectation and boundaries for it is only with these in place that true informed empowerment can happen. If the box where freedom of action is understood the liberation is total inside the box and communication expected when venturing outside the box. If expectations and boundaries are not understood then inevitably restrictions are self generated and limit the empowerment particularly when a blame culture is dominant.
Unfortunately even with the best will in the world mistakes will happen and they will happen with no malice of forethought or wicked intent. They will happen because we as members of the human race are fallible. The Human factor must always be considered in contingency planning and the human factor must always be taken into account when reviewing a failed action or procedure. Mistakes will happen it is the speed of recovery that ensures they are not fatal. No one sets out to do a bad job, most humans thrive in a positive culture. As long as mistakes are learned from then they must be seen in a positive light as part of the learning. As failure is essential to success then the risk of failure or mistakes must be planned for if a non-blame culture is to hold prominence within an organisation.
A blame culture exists if an organisation or individual focuses on the problem and not on the solution. Yet the solution is the home of the required development. Hence risk has to be part of development and blame has to be banished to the background if the drive for success is to dominate the fear of failure

Has the price of Windows 8.1 been gone down recently? Blogs have mentioned a drop of about 70%. Please weblink , but mention relevant lines from weblink in your response.
I just read a very interesting article relevent to this question. Interesting!!! The link is : http://techcrunch.com/2014/02/28/free-windows-8-1-update/
Thanks. I have read the article with care. It points out to free version bundled with Bing. Please tell current retail price of Win 8.1
Dr. Sunil,
This is the link to Microsoft India Store for Windows, click to find the price of the relevent edition you want : http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msin/en_GB/cat/categoryID.66287400?WT.mc_id=MSCOM_EN_IN_HP_Nav_Shop_Windows
Windows 8.1 Retail @ INR 10,999.00 / copy and Windows 8.1 Pro Retail @ INR 18,999.00 / copy as on now in the Store
Thanks very much! Please tell when is Microsoft Build Conference for 2014?
M$ has not reduced the price on retail copies of their obsolete O/Ss (Win 9x, w2k, XP) so why should they lower the retail price on their latest and greatest O/S. M$ figures that if you are dumb enough to want one of their old O/Ss, you should pay the full price.
Microsoft have lowered the OEM price (that is, the price that equipment manufacturers pay it, rather than the retail price), for laptops selling for less than $250. See http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-02-22/microsoft-said-to-cut-windows-price-70-to-counter-rivals.html for more details.
Thanks. Pl tell current price of win 8.1
The original article I saw on the subject (in Hebrew I'm afraid) said that the "normal" OEM price is $50, and Microsoft was lowering it to $15 for cheap devices. Retail prices are a different matter, of course, and Microsoft are not lowering them at all.
The price of Windows 8.1 has been reduced for OEMs pre-installing the OS on devices priced at less than $250. The price for consumers hasn't changed.
This is clearly a strategy designed to combat the rise of cheap tablets and Chromebooks.

We teach our home inspection coaching clients to look at real estate agents differently. We classify real estate agents as Top Producers or Non-Top Producers. The way we market and the resources we spend on each of these groups is very different.
When we market non-top producing real estate agents we aggressively try to knock out the home inspector that they are currently using. Our marketing message is written in the problem, agitate, solve format. In other words, our marketing message conveys that the non-top producing real estate agent would be better off working with us than their current inspector. Many of these non-top producing real estate agents don't have as many sales each year and therefore many of them do not have a strong loyalty to a home inspector. These are the easiest to get on your team, we call them low hanging fruit.
However, top-producing real estate agents are a completely different beast. They have generally done research on the home inspector before they selected them. If you were to send a message to a top producing real estate agent that their home inspector might not be the best choice for them, you could be insulting that top producing real estate agent. Therefore, our message to top producing real estate agents is we want to be number two. So we share our marketing message and we let them know that we understand that they have a relationship with the home inspector but for whatever reason, if that inspector was not available or they were upset with his or her actions we would be waiting in the wings to serve them.
NOTE: The staff at The Savvy Inspector has lots of experience in turning one man shops into multi-inspector firms. When you get signed up for The Savvy Inspector coaching group you will have access all materials you need to successfully recruit, hire and train home inspectors. So join us today!

There are multiple trade papers that have it, although I don't really know which ones are in print at the moment. The whole Adams/Oneil run on GA/GL has been collected probably more than any other series. If you find one, do make sure what you're looking for is in there before you buy it, as the run has also been packaged a number of different ways, but honestly I don't think you can go wrong with this stuff if you're into the history of comics.
The only thing I'd warn you about is despite the fact the dialouge was groundbreaking at the time, it's pretty badly dated.

Kranked - Live to Ride was released.
This film started the freeride revolution and forever changed mountain biking as we know it.
It also launched Kranked onto a trajectory of travelling the world and filming the best riders. The riding was rowdy, the spirit free and the stoke massive. It was a golden age of shred and film making.
The mission was to inspire people to get out into nature with a healthy dose of adrenaline and to push the sport into new cool realms.
This was the start of Kranked. Now many years later the same excitement and paradigm shifting performance has once again captured Kranked full attention.
The years below give you a snapshot into the journey Kranked has been on pioneering the all new sport of high performance mountain biking.
Live to Ride!

Lone-Lizard sees Ancient-History
"Lane County has an abundance of prehistoric artifacts. This example of pictographs have defied the elements for centuries. Writings can be see along Highway 395 near Lake Abert. County contains almost a fourth of the state's Indian writings."
— Caption of a featured photograph of a petroglyph boulder in the Sunday Oregonian, 1959 [1]
"Indian Pictographs in Lake County. Such Indian picture writings are usually not very old, because the desert wind and sand tend to obliterate them in about two hundred years as a rule."
— Caption of a photograph of a petroglyph boulder published as the full-page frontispiece of The Oregon Desert, 1964 [2] (Adapted image above)
"The boulder was blasted by a maintenance crew about 1967, and the fragments graded into the ditch on the west side of the highway."
- Noted by Malcolm and Louise Loring from a 1967 visit, 1982 [3]
The same petroglyph boulder is imaged and imagined in all three. The Oregonian and Oregon Desert photographs are almost identical.
Lone-Lizard sees it coming: Ancient-History in not ancient. Lone-Lizard sees it going: Ancient-History is not history as a rule. Ancient-History sees Lone-Lizard is not a lizard in dreamtime highway fragments. [4]
Above, an adapted image of Lorings's line drawing of the boulder's face prior to 1967. They noted: "On one large lizard petroglyph the rock surface in the body was polished and painted with red pigment."
[1] "Pictographs, Petroglyphs Premium Lake County Attractions," Sunday Oregonian, August 23, 1959, by Paul Laartz, The highlight of this feature story was a photograph of the boulder with petroglyphs on the southeast shore of Lake Abert. The story was part of series in partnership with the Oregon State Motor Assn to promote tourism during Oregon's centennial year.
Eerily, the 1959 article also includes another photograph captioned: "Lakeview, well known as a center of lumbering, cattle raising, has recently added this uranium reduction mill to its list of contributors to a thriving Lake County economy." The Lakeview Uranium Mill operated 1958-1961. A 2017 fact sheet "provides information about the Uranium Mill Tailings Radiation Control Act of 1978. Title I processing site and disposal site near Lakeview, Oregon. This site is managed by the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Legacy Management." https://www.lm.doe.gov/Lakeview/Disposal/Sites.aspx
[2] The Oregon Desert, 1964, by E R Jackman and Reub A. Long, Caxton Press (Idaho). Chapter 11, titled "Indians in the Desert," offers folksy observation, opinion and hearsay, vague (mis)information, and condescending pronouncements typical of late 19th- and early 20th-century attitudes. This enduringly popular volume has been continuously in-print since 1964; distributed by University of Nebraska Press. The full-page frontispiece photograph is the petroglyph boulder destroyed in 1967.
[3] Malcolm and Louise Loring in 1967 visited the Lake Abert shore location of petroglyph boulder highlighted in the two photographs. In the description for Site 140 the Lorings reference the 1959 Oregonian story. Loring, J. Malcolm, and Louise Loring. Pictographs & Petroglyphs of the Oregon Country, Parts I & II. 1996. This one-volume corrected edition of the original 1982 two-volume publication is available online.
[4] Dreamtime Highway is not a completely original phrase. I've admired Dreamtime Superhighway (2008), a superb book by Jo McDonald about the rock art of New South Wales, Australia, which "proposes that the rock art in the Sydney region functioned as a prehistoric information superhighway." Something to ponder as we look to see.

Looking for your next job? Then you may want to read this . . .
We get calls all the time from candidates & connections on what they can do to improve their odds to land their next role. Below I will list out what I have been preaching and practicing my entire career within the High Tech market.
We will cover your LI profile, your CV and your game plan:
With your LinkedIn Profile, "Perception becomes Reality"
Your LinkedIn page is your "Brand." You must own it, put effort into what it says about you, and most importantly, polish what you project to the business world.
What you say about yourself here becomes reality; it's actually a way of visualizing yourself in your next role. I have seen this successfully done many times, but you have to be in the right frame of mind.
Your photo should fit the role you're performing and projecting–snapshots of you and your better half are for Facebook. Head and shoulders, be smiling, and look good.
Your summary statement should cover "what" you do and your core value. As an example, if you're a Salesperson it should state what you sell and what you have sold (Software, Services, etc.)
Use keywords that describe the technology that you specialize in, such as: Cloud, Virtualization, IOT, Security, etc. these keywords are important for recruiters to find you, as they will run keyword searches daily. What's listed in your profile will determine how you show up in their search "Think SEO." You're the webmaster of this page, so take control.
Underneath every role you have performed, list out your successes in bullet form (short and sweet). Your past 5 years are of most importance as employers are hiring for what you're doing now, not 10 years ago, so emphasis goes to the recent past.
If you had any brief encounter jobs (less than 15 months), it helps to state why you left, as this could show as a red flag if you have a number of these in a row (company was acquired, family leave, division dissolved, etc.)
If you're an engineer, list any certifications you have, even if they are not up to date.
If you're on the development side, list out your core development strengths and if you're "code fresh" with those specific languages.
Finally, you must identify your next job "role or title" that describes you so that it comes across in your LinkedIn profile. As an example if your next role is focused towards a Development Manager then that's your core title under your name or as close to it as you describe yourself to the world. Make sure your settings allow you to be contacted by anyone while you're in your job search, and mention you are open for "new opportunities," as recruiters use this for finding people on the hunt.
Simple: it should match your LinkedIn profile from the broad perspective.
Customize your CV for each position you apply to, as each role may be slightly different.
It's important that you look at the "Job Requirements" listed and make sure your skills match up at least 80%. If not, don't apply, as your wasting your time and theirs as well.
The Game Plan
Ok so you're looking for your next job. The main thing is keep cool, get your mind right, and be positive. Heck, get excited! You're about to make a life changing event, you should be fired up!
Before you tell the world (or your 10 best friends on LI) that you're looking, you must do the following:
Ask yourself, "What is the next role you want?"
Title(s) – What are they going to call you?
Job Description – What do you want to be doing? Be as specific as possible, for your sake
Location – What side of town? How long of a commute are you willing to have? Thinking of relocating? Where might be nice to move to?
Company – What industries might you like to work in? Do you prefer a startup? A small company? A large enterprise? Make a list of specific companies that you think you would like to work for.
Now, before you move on, ask yourself: Is this REALLY where you want to work? Would this job make you wake up in the morning and say: "I can't wait to start my day at work!" If you can't say that, then think harder here. Go back and do it again. Life is short, and it helps if you're doing something that makes you happy.
Reach out to your inner circle of friends and associates in business. These are people that care about your well-being and want to see you get your next job.
When you ping them, be specific about the job, role, and type of company you want. Don't say "I'm looking, and if you hear anything, let me know." That would be the worst thing to do. Most humans (even your friends) can't focus on that to help you. But if you are specific, then when they do hear something, they will recognize it, they will think of you, and they will let you know about it.
Be specific — once you know what you want:
This alone accounts for over 80% of people finding their next job. Do this correctly. Take the time to mentally get it straight. Only then, tell your friends. Chances are good, one of them will come through.
Post your CV
Go post your CV on Indeed (www.indeed.com). Just as LI is for your profile, Indeed is now the best site to post your CV.
Interviews: "You look marvelous!"
Look marvelous, both in person and via the phone.
Our executive search firm represents some of the top tech companies looking for hard to find senior level talent (CxO, Dir., SME, etc.), and one of the biggest complaints I get from clients is of candidates not dressing for the role, just being sloppy in their attire, or not being excited on the phone. I cannot emphasize enough here that regardless of your last role being in "sneakers and shorts work attire," going into an interview looking & sounding good not only "projects the right you," but makes you feel more confident and that will show.
Prepare for the interview; do your homework on the company even, down to any public docs on profitably, forward looking plans, big things they're doing next quarter. Clients are impressed when a candidate can know their business vs. "just showing up".
Phone interviews: Be happy and have your tail wagging. Smile! People can pick up on fear, happiness, etc. so get in a positive state of mind and be interested in the job it will come across in the call.
If you make it to interview number 3 (interview 1 & 2 are phone typically), never ever bring up money first. Let them bring up money first, this will put power on your side to negotiate.
With that, if you follow these simple steps, it will improve your job search results.
I truly wish you success and happiness in your next position.

Author and publisher, John Gaver, is proud to endorse J.D. Winteregg for Congress, in Ohio's District 8, over current House Speaker, John Boehner.
Since becoming Speaker of the House, John Boehner has been an almost constant disappointment to Republican voters, repeatedly surrendering to Obama and the Democrats; even when holding a winning hand. In fact, many have even gone so far as to suggest that having Boehner leading House Republicans, does to the GOP, what having Osama bin Laden chairing the Knesset, would do to Israel.
Unfortunately, the way our political parties work, it's highly unlikely that Boehner, short of being caught in a major scandal, will be voted out of the Speaker's chair before he has done irreparable damage to the GOP. That leaves only one option for saving the GOP – voting Boehner out of Congress.
Fortunately, Ohio voters have a solid conservative choice in the upcoming primary. J.D. Winteregg is a solid conservative, who has made his conservative positions crystal clear – none of the equivocation that we've come to expect from John Boehner. Let's take a look at J.D.'s positions, as they compare to Boehner's.
Amnesty –
• Boehner: Working with Obama to provide amnesty to illegal aliens
• Winteregg: Absolutely opposes any form of amnesty
Obamacare –
• Boehner: Voted to fund Obamacare
• Winteregg: Absolutely will not vote to fund Obamacare
Debt Ceiling –
• Boehner: Suspended the Debt Ceiling, giving Obama a blank check
• Winteregg: Absolutely opposes any increase in the Debt Ceiling
Spending –
• Boehner: Has worked with Democrats to increase both taxes and spending
• Winteregg: Will work hard to cut spending and lower taxes
Education –
• Boehner: Co-sponsored "No Child Left Behind" ('nuff said)
• Winteregg: As a high school teacher, he supports local control of education.
Abortion –
• Boehner: Voted to fund Planned Parenthood and use tax money to fund abortions
• Winteregg: Vows to never vote to allow taxpayer-funding of abortions
The IRS Scandal –
• Boehner: Has yet to even address IRS targeting of conservative groups
• Winteregg: Will work to insure that the IRS is held to account for their actions
Term Limits –
• Boehner: 24 years in Congress and beholding to lobbyists more than constituents
• Winteregg: Supports term limits for all elected officials
In short, J.D. Winteregg is a rock solid conservative, who will be a strong and dependable presence in Congress for conservative values.
The Ohio District 8 race for Congress is the single most important race in 2014. That's because, if conservatives can defeat Boehner, it will send an unmistakable message to the rest of the RINOs in both houses of Congress, that if it can happen to the single most powerful RINO in Congress, it can happen to any of them.
John Boehner is running scared. Although the polls indicate that he is likely to win the primary, he must surely be thinking about the polls leading up to the Texas US Senate election two years ago. The polls I'm talking about are the ones showed that the "upstart" challenger to the party's chosen candidate, Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst, didn't stand a chance. But come primary day, that "upstart, Ted Cruz, won the primary, walking away. Boehner's concern is showing, since he is spending unprecedented amounts of money on advertising, for a sitting Speaker.
As the saying goes, "The opera ain't over till the fat lady sings." Two years ago, Texas was considered to be the state most solidly under the control of the RINO leadership. But despite that, we sent a true conservative to the Senate and sent a strong message to the RINO leadership, both in Texas and in Washington, DC. We started nailing the RINO's political coffin shut.
Ohio has a chance to drive the final nail into the political coffin of the RINOs, who are currently destroying the GOP. Ousting Boehner will leave no doubt that the election of Ted Cruz was not a fluke and that they are all in danger of being ousted, if they don't start paying more attention to their constituents and less to lobbyists.
John Quincy Adams expressed a truism in politics when he said, "Always vote for principle, though you may vote alone, and you may cherish the sweetest reflection that your vote is never lost."
A vote for J.D. Winteregg for Congress, will be a vote for principle, a vote for unabashed conservatism, and a vote for which you will always be proud.Share this page

It is becoming a familiar story. The financial exploitation of Seniors is becoming a nationwide epidemic. Tough economic times seem to be driving the explosion in this type of financial abuse.
A Toledo Blade News article on Saturday July4, 2011 highlighted three different local stories of elder financial abuse. In Lucas County last year, 119 cases of elder financial abuse were reported. Nationwide, victims lost more than $2.9 billion dollars in 2010.
In conferences with my clients, I always emphasize the benefits of having a financial power of attorney (POA), but caution about the potential hazards. An unknown attorney in fact designate in a financial power of attorney can do a lot of damage to one's financial security. However, POA's can be drafted to limit the authority of an attorney in fact, such as capping the amount of a check that can be written or the amount that can be withdrawn from a bank without, a lawyer or other third party concurring in the action.
The Blade article also listed several other ways to avoid becoming a victim of elder financial abuse:
*Bank independently as long as possible by using automatic bill payer;
*Do not write your Social Security number on your checks;
*Review all credit card statements and bank statements;
*Do not give out credit card information over the phone, unless you made the call; and
*Check out contractor's licenses, obtain quotes and do not pay until a job is finished for all home repairs.
As a community, we need to be vigilant to protect the senior community from those looking to take advantage of them. If you suspect any kind of elder abuse, report it to your county's Adult Protective Services.

For the past few days I have been prayerfully considering how eerily quite things are right now in the Spirit. The silence is almost deafening and that in a time when we need a clear channel and open line of communication. I realize that this statement may sound strange in light of how noisy things are in the world around us, and it appears that our worlds may be flying apart at the seams as the fabric of our society is begin torn apart.
That being said, Yahweh is impressing upon many of His sons the importance of to coming together in unity. We need to position ourselves to continue to hear and obey His voice as we begin to fully embrace the Father's heart concerning our oneness. We Are One. There is One Sovereign, Faith and Baptism. The House that Yahshua has and is building is the Father's House and it is made up of sons, brothers and friends. We are sons of the same Father and brothers of the same
In times like these we are tempted to hold to what we know to be true, while leaning on authority of experience. When we are not able to ascertain what the Father is saying and doing we have a tendency to pretend that we have a handle on everything by saying and doing something that comes natural. Our soul does not like silence and our flesh gets impatient when things are quite.
The following passage of Scripture speaks to what happens when we resort to doing something that comes natural before we know what the Father is saying and doing.
Peter was more than confused and troubled in His Spirit after the death and burial of Yahshua and he did not fully understand what was going on. His soul did not want to accept the reality that Yahshua was gone and He may not be coming back any time soon. This story reveals that Peter was some upset over what had happened so he decided to do something that came natural. He knew how to catch fish, or so he thought. However, his decision to go fishing influenced some other brothers and they all fished all night for nothing. The good news is, you-know-who showed up the next morning and He was already cooking breakfast.
We have all been right there, more than once. Some of us are there right now. Nothing is happening and we are licking our index finger and pointing upward in order to determine which direction the wind in blowing. What is the Father saying and doing is the question? Need I remind us that whatever He is saying will not return unto Him void, and whatever He is doing will accomplished His intended purpose?
Note: If we are in a holding pattern or a spiritual time-out, it is because He is waiting for us to properly discern the time and season before engaging. The beautiful part about this time and season is we will grow to trust Him with our life and future, and we will become more sensitive and attentive to what He is presently saying and doing. We are not obligated to say of do anything that He is not saying and doing. In times like these we can preach, teach and quote Scripture until we are blue in the face, and that to no avail. In times like these we can do what comes natural; but nothing lasting will come of our efforts in the end.
May I suggest what the Father is presently saying and doing may or may not have anything to do with what He has already said and done?
May I suggest that making more noise and jumping higher is not going to change the fact that when we are all out of breath and to weak to stand, nothing productive will have been accomplished?
Note: Patiently waiting is not something that comes natural. We live in a push button, automatic society, and we want it NOW. Instantaneous satisfaction and results.
Simon Peter said to them, I go a fishing. They say to him, We also go with you. They
went forth, and entered into a ship immediately; and that night they caught nothing.
The Rest of the Story:
After this Jesus revealed himself again to the disciples by the Sea of Tiberias, and he revealed himself in this way. Simon Peter, Thomas (called the Twin), Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples were together. Simon Peter said to them, "I am going fishing." They said to him, "We will go with you." They went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing. Just as day was breaking, Jesus stood on the shore; yet the disciples did not know that it was Jesus. Jesus said to them, "Children, do you have any fish?"They answered him, "No." He said to them, "Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some." So they cast it, and now they were not able to haul it in, because of the quantity of fish. That disciple whom Jesus loved therefore said to Peter, "It is the Lord!" When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his outer garment, for he was stripped for work, and threw himself into the sea. The other disciples came in the boat, dragging the net full of fish, for they were not far from the land, but about a hundred yards off. When they got out on land, they saw a charcoal fire in place, with fish laid out on it, and bread. Jesus said to them, "Bring some of the fish that you have just caught." So Simon Peter went aboard and hauled the net ashore, full of large fish, 153 of them. And although there were so many, the net was not torn. Jesus said to them, "Come and have breakfast." Now none of the disciples dared ask him, "Who are you?" They knew it was the Lord. Jesus came and took the bread and gave it to them, and so with the fish. This was now the third time that Jesus was revealed to the d disciples after he was raised from the dead. When they had finished breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon, son
of John, do you love me more than these?" He said to him, "Yes, Lord; you know that I love you." He said to him, "Feed my lambs." He said to him a second time, "Simon, son of John, do you love me?" He said to him, "Yes, Lord; you know that I love you." He said to him, "Tend my sheep." He said to him the third time, "Simon, son of John, do you love me?" Peter was grieved because he said to him the third time, "Do you love me?" and he said to him, "Lord, you know everything; you know that I love you." Jesus said to him, "Feed my sheep. Truly, truly, I say to you, when you were young, you used to dress yourself and walk wherever you wanted, but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will dress you and carry you where you do not want to go."(This he said to show by what kind of death he was to glorify God.) And after saying this he said to him, "Follow me Peter turned and saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following them, the one who also had leaned back against him during the supper and had said, "Lord, who is it that is going to betray you?"When Peter saw him, he said to Jesus, "Lord, what about this man?"Jesus said to him, "If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you? You follow me! "So the saying spread abroad among the brothers that this disciple was not to die; yet Jesus did not say to him that he was not to die, but, "If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you?"This is the disciple who is bearing witness about these things, and who has written these things, and we know that his testimony is true. Now there are also many other things that Jesus did. Were every one of them to be written, I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books that would be written.John 21:1-25 ESV

Taiwan expresses regret as Sao Tome ends ties
Taiwan Foreign minister David Lee expressed regret on Wednesday after Sao Tome ended ties with the self-ruled island, and said Taiwan would not engage in "dollar diplomacy".
Taiwan was unable to satisfy the small West Africa nation's financial shortages, Lee told a news conference in Taipei.
China earlier welcomed the move, without explicitly saying it had established formal relations with Sao Tome.

Beginning in kindergarten, students are taught how to be good citizens. We teach them the importance of being honest, trustworthy, kind, respectful, responsible, and safe. Students read books, analyze characters, watch videos, and act out scenarios to discuss and practice each of the skills needed to help make the world a better place.
We now live and work in a world where many classrooms have quick access to computers, the Internet, and an endless supply of knowledge. Along with the benefits that can come from this access also come potential problems. When it comes to students and their digital use, most adults agree that we need to protect our students from some of the dangers being an Internet user can bring about. What seems to happen in most cases is the same amount of time and effort is not dedicated to teaching students the skills they need to be a responsible citizen in a 21st-century world. Instead, schools tend to block any and every site that might be used inappropriately.
According to George Couros¹, educators should focus on what students can do with technology, instead of what they shouldn't. To do this, we need to constantly model responsible digital use ourselves. Additionally, schools should create opportunities for students to learn how to be a responsible, thoughtful digital citizens. Lessons should be dedicated to encouraging and empowering learners to use the Internet to share their voice, collaborate with and learn from others, and advocate for positive change. In the same ways we teach young students how to be responsible members of a community year after year, educators should consistently teach, model, and emphasize the positive ways to participate as a respectful member of the online community.
Because we know how busy life as an educator is, our team at Five-Star Technology Solutions has put together some of the best and most useful digital citizenship resources, including grade-specific lesson plans, to help provide you with ideas on how to build these essential learning opportunities into your day.

A woman dressed as Uncle Sam was promoting her musical. Someone in a cow suit tried to draw attention to the perils of global warming. A man in battle fatigues with a military-style rifle over his shoulder and a handgun strapped to his leg held a sign with a picture of yet another gun and the words, "We will not comply."
And those weren't even the people allied with any of the campaigns of the 12 Democrats who will take the stage in Tuesday's Democratic primary debate in Westerville. Outside the elaborate CNN set on the Otterbein campus it was a sparking fall day and people traveled to the Columbus suburb to take part in a process that, presumably, will yield a challenger to Republican President Donald Trump in 2020.
Many who showed up were trying to take advantage of the international spotlight that had been cast on the otherwise sleepy town to attract attention to their issues.
In the "free speech" zone south of campus, Columbus City Councilwoman Elizabeth Brown and Democratic Congresswoman Joyce Beatty joined a group advocating for free menstrual products to be as widely available as toilet paper is in public restrooms.
"Going to the bathroom is a bodily function just like having a period is a bodily function, so why the double-standard?" Brown asked.
Only feet away, the man with the guns and the battle fatigues refused to give his name, and he declined to say what he meant by "We will not comply." Asked if that meant he intended violence in the event of a mandatory gun buyback — a proposal of one of the Democratic candidates — all he would say is that he intended to "defend" himself.
Nearby, Jim Flaningen of Westerville stood with his Ruger police carbine slung over his shoulder with a sign saying "My God-given rights might offend your 'feelings'" nearby. Asked how gun rights are God-given, Flaningen said his right to defend himself was.
He agreed that Westerville, a town that's about as middle-America as it gets, is not dangerous, but said, "I don't feel like I'm going to get into a wreck, either, but I still wear a seat belt."
The woman in the Uncle Sam suit, Carol Dunitz of Ann Arbor, Michigan, said she's been traveling to political events to promote her work "2020 the Musical" which, fittingly, comprises 20 songs.
"If you're conservative, you'll like 15 of them. If you're liberal, you'll like 20 of them," she said, explaining that they're intended to raise awareness of issues such as climate change.
Which was the whole point of the person in the cow suit. Tricia Ledkuecher, a senior campaigner for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, said the idea was to get people to "stop ignoring the carcass in the room." She said her group wants people to adopt vegan diets because meat production consumes far more energy than plant production, driving climate change.

Up the street from the free speech zone, supporters of former vice president Joe Biden cheered and chanted on one corner, while those for businessman Andrew Yang did their thing on another. On the Biden corner Kathy Ryan, a recent retiree from Westerville, said "Four more years of Trump is suicide. He is just a rogue president."
She said she didn't have a strong preference between Biden and Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren; she just wanted to oust Trump from office. "I have never done anything like this," she said. "I just didn't feel like I could stay home."
Across the street, former Westerville resident Charlie Tuttle of Minot, North Dakota, was selling Trump caps for $30 and $20 and Trump hardhats for $100. He had a trailer full of the stuff, but he said, "I wasn't coming here intending to sell, I just came to support Trump."
On the sidewalk nearby was Joni Fuller of Westerville, wearing a Trump cap and Trump sneakers. "I'm just waiting for the swamp to get drained," she said, predicting that a massive corruption scandal will sweep many congressional Democrats and Republicans from office.
If she's concerned about corruption, is she concerned that Trump refuses to release his tax returns? "So?" Fuller responded. "We don't care."

This DVD covers the period 1948 to 1959 and brings us back to a golden age in hurling's history. A time of flat caps, before shin guards and helmets, before cruciate ligaments had been invented, and when you actually had a chance of seeing Dublin in a hurling final! The DVD contains rare footage of some of the greatest players ever to lift the camán, legends such as John Keane, Tony Reddin, Jimmy Doyle, the Rackard brothers, Eddie Keher and of course Christy Ring, to name but a few. Cork and Tipperary's three-in-a-row wins are featured, as is the legendary Kilkenny win of 1957, and Waterford's only All-Ireland hurling victories, which are the opening and closing matches on the DVD.
But the DVD is more than just a record of great hurling achievements; it also provides us with a snap shot of an Ireland long gone. The camera team skilfully recorded the excitement in the capital on match day as they follow the crowds from Heuston Station, down O'Connell Street, and up to Jones's road. For me these crowd scenes are almost as compelling as the match footage. Other highlights are the small details: Mattie Fouhy and Willie John Daley playing bootless, a canine spectator invading the pitch and being escorted to the sideline, crowds hanging from the railings and lining the wall behind the score board in the days before health and safety spoiled the fun, linesman smoking as they wave their flags, and footage of the opening of the new Hogan Stand in 1959.
However, I don't think there will be much debate about the fact that it is Micheal O'Hehir's rousing commentary that steals the show. In the early days much of the action was missed by a single cameraman struggling to keep up with the fast play, but O'Hehir's enthusiastic commentary more than fills the gaps, creates a sense of occasion, and succeeds in building an air of tension for the audience who already would, of course, have known the score.
The 11 matches contained on this DVD are the beginning of what we hope will be a series of All-Ireland DVDs from the Archive collection. We aim to follow up with the football finals of the same period. The fact that this footage survives is due to the on going work of the IFI Irish Film Archive. The DVD serves as reminder that our moving image heritage is invaluable and needs to be given the same protection as the cultural collections held in our museums, libraries and paper archives. The proceeds of the sale of this DVD will go towards the cost of preserving our national moving image collection for the benefit of current and future generations.

The onset of 40 winters demands high retrospection that you are in control of your dying hormones. In vague cases, the declining stage of health for most adults happens as early as their late 30s for people who resort to hectic physical works.
So it is so important that you get in tune with the available resources that Nature offers you for the smartest Health and Awesome living.
Are you in control of that?
Aging is a NATURAL PROCESS you cannot avoid but can be controlled. People above '40s should give extra alert!
See how this guy talks about Aging and how you can formulate the steps emphasized to maintain your health in the video.
In this article, I want to show you some food recipes you have not seen or heard before. What most people don't seem to understand is that youth and vitality are the outcomes of good health, and truly speaking, no plastic surgeries that can help you maintain the kind of good health you receive from following what Nature offers.
A Bird's Eye View on Potatoes
You don't really know whether the potato you consumed at home is free from pesticides. You just bought it bluntly from the nearest available grocery and continue consuming it. Some people would just wash and consume along with its skin not knowing how toxic the skin of the potato is.
Research in the USDA's Pesticide Data Program had shown that there are 35 different pesticides found in conventional potatoes. And out of these 35, the figures given below came to light:
- 12 are suspected hormone disruptors that need attention
- 7 are destructive to our nerves or say they are neurotoxins
- 6 are found to be developmental or reproductive toxins
- 6 are capable of causing cancer in living tissues or probable carcinogens
This is a hair-raising data, right? Chlorpropham, a herbicide that is used to destroy the growth of weeds and to inhibit potato sprouting makes up 76% chemical content in conventional potatoes.
More tests have shown that frequent exposure of laboratory animals including honey bees has triggered increased liver, retarded growth, congestion of the spleen, kidney and spleen weights, and death.
Cutting the long story short, go here for further reading adventure on how pesticides linger over our foodstuffs.
A Glimpse of Tomatoes You Consume Daily
Tomatoes are our daily food recipes and that goes straight into our menus. But have you ever pondered that the intake of it without giving any guesswork can hamper our aging process and lead you to untimely death and weaknesses?
Meru district of Arusha region in Tanzania, one of the key tomato producers, took tomato samples and consumption information collected from 50 farmers using Food and Drug Administration standards. They found out that pesticide levels were detected for permethrin with a mean, 5.2899 mg/kg, chlorpyrifos with a mean, 7.5281 mg/kg and ridomil with a mean, 2,854.279 mg/kg in 18% of samples.
Our daily intake of tomatoes stands at high risk for chlorpyrifos, permethrin, and ridomil. This indicates that lifetime consumption of fresh tomatoes can pose a health risk for chlorpyrifos, permethrin, and ridomil.
Exposure to small amounts of chlorpyrifos can cause a runny nose, teary eyes, and increased saliva or call it drooling. People may start sweating, and also develop dizziness, headache, and nausea. Additional exposures can cause vomiting.
Now then, abdominal muscle cramps, tremors and weakness, muscle twitching and loss of coordination may come into questioning.
Wait, let me not horrify you but sometimes people develop diarrhea or blurred or darkened vision. In severe poisoning cases, exposure can lead to unconsciousness, loss of bladder and bowel control, convulsions, difficulty in breathing, and paralysis. Further reading here in details.
OMG, the worst can be becoming a paralysis victim.
Awareness raising on good practices for pesticide application and food safety strengthening are recommended to protect public health against pesticides.
PERMETHRIN is used to treat head lice, tiny insects that infest and irritate your scalp. It is also used to help avoid an infestation in people. Note here that it performs innumerable functions and is used against a number of pests on fruit, vegetable, cotton, ornamental, mushroom, nut, potato and cereal crops. It is also used in greenhouses and termites control.
The above terms are the daily consumables that you cannot go without. Your daily intake of foodstuff justifies your aging.
So what's up?
Well, organic potatoes are the remedial answers to your queries!
Now, if you want to learn how to blog and set up your own business online, fill up the form below for your free membership:
Eat Only Organic Potatoes
When I eat potatoes, I only eat organic potatoes because organic productions are most health-friendly and do not allow the use of all of these toxic chemicals.
I purchase organic potatoes from my locally available sellers who come from interior villages and never import them from the cities.
See the picture:
Have a closer look as to how Organic Potatoes appear to your vision. Make arrangements that you get access to these foodstuffs.
When that fails! No worries, keep reading a few more lines for your answers.
Go away far from the cities to have your own organic potatoes. Your city is artificial and pregnant with POLLUTIONS in all aspects. Supra artificiality had made the lifespan of many people shorter.
You can travel to a beautiful place where you are surrounded by Natural Greens and Fertile Lands and of course, where you have good access to internet CONNECTION.
For without the internet, you cannot keep yourself updated with the latest trends.
Make sense?
Have a Kitchen Garden at Your Courtyard
Developing your own vegetable garden is both fun and rewarding. All you need to get started is some good soil and a few plants. Become a successful vegetable gardener by doing it organically.
What you need is to understand what it takes to keep your plants healthy and vibrant. Here are the basics.
You should feed the soil you use for your kitchen garden. In conventional chemical agriculture, crop plants get fed directly using synthetic fertilizers which I don't recommend.
When done repeatedly, these chemicals can gradually impoverish the soil. And turn it from a rich entity teeming with microorganisms insects and other life forms, into a sterile medium that exists only to anchor the plants' roots and that provides no nutrition at all.
The most useful substance for building and maintaining a healthy, well-balanced rich soil is organic matter. You can add organic matter to your soil in many ways, such as compost, animal manures, shredded leaves to rot or cover crops.
The result will be just AMAZING as this puts you in the right track not only of 'health consciousness' but make you look younger.
When there are no toxins in your food, your chances of staying young can definitely be enhanced by piggybacking lots of positive vibes in your thoughts.
Not only that, but you will also look for foods like fresh Tuna, Egg-yolks, Oysters, Low-fat Milk, and Beans to make your level of testosterone DRASTICALLY increased if your gender is Male! Switch to further reading if you want here.
For women, eating fruits like Apricots, Oranges, Strawberries, Peaches, many dried fruits can increase estradiol levels and make you stay fit and young.
Yams, carrots, alfalfa sprouts, kale, celery and a lot of Olives and Olive Oils should be in your Vegetable Menus.
Retrieve your lost hormones by taking these anti-aging food recipes:
Walnuts: Superb for the brain as it is packed with Omega-3 fatty acids and performs tremendously for
cardiovascular systems.
Avocados: An amazing fruit that reduces the risk of heart disease and strokes and belly fats. Woohoo!
Garlic: A potency of Anti-Aging food and helps keep the Vampires away from joining their coffins. It is high in sulfur so good for liver and skin besides avoiding cardiovascular health, blood pressure, and cholesterol.
Blueberries: They are antioxidants that fight the free radicals and will not spike your sugar level.
Wrapping it up, never forget that you are a person over 40 who is frequently visited by those foes like Cardiac Arrest, High Blood Pressure, and Cholesterol.
Hey, don't you tell me later that I didn't warn you about taking precaution at this time of your AGING! And do not forget to add Extra Virgin Olive Oil(EVOO) to any of your sumptuous dishes or food recipes.
Go here for further reading and stay young, healthy and wealthy. Woohoo! What a joy!

It is being alone in a spacecraft, it is being the blissful upswing of a synthy mind-fuck … actually it is 'Silent Earthling' by Three Trapped Tigers.
Ok, so in case you aren't clued up on the indie-synth-math-noise genre that exists somewhere just outside of the mainstream, Three Trapped Tigers are a Three piece instrumental "noise" band from London. They sound like a trip into outer space if it was organised by an actually cool maths teacher. Except what's this?! The trip to space has been hijacked by aliens and now there's trippy colours and lasers, then suddenly everything is ok, and it's home time.
Whilst the album definitely holds up against the bands previous releases, It's nothing to go crazy over either. But that's ok. This music is never supposed to be that. It's an audio experience that you listen to and then your life carries on. There's an emotive dynamic of highs and lows that you're plunging through as you listen.
This in mind, headphones are advisably turned up (sensibly of course) and allowing for the stereoscopic array of sounds to take over. One minute there is calm, a floating like experience over very real percussion, echoing and persuasive. It's very shoe-gaze and calm, never ambient because of those percussive strikes still ricocheting amidst the oscillating sounds of synth. Then suddenly the ground gives way, it's as though you're in Terminator… the game… in the arcade… when you're ten. Everything is flashing quickly. You're gripped … hands a little sweaty on that controller, fingers hovering expertly over the chunky buttons. You're literally seconds away from the high-score. It is exhilarating in a way that nothing will be again until you discover tequila.
The drums break into full intensity, it's incredibly rave inspired, but math and techy too. The low end roars through, sirens of synth and alien sounds are flashing like that arcade game you remember so well in your ears. It's intense but coherent. Then we start the dynamic change again.
Perhaps what makes 'Silent Earthling' best is the nostalgia of video games and now uncool dance sub-genres, but it is also for the mastery of the synth/math crossover the band have managed with this album. That nostalgia is not accidental, track titles such as 'Rainbow Road' remind the listener of the 8-bit background this kind of music will always be compared to.
The only criticism here then is that as a whole, it is perhaps a bit forgettable. It is 2016 and the indie listener knows by now that instrumental noise rock can be memorable and something more than an exercise in sound. A wealth of bands have given the crowd some of the best indie releases of the last few years. The glitchy ups and downs of Silent Earthling are certainly a blissful, but adrenaline fuelled journey. But at the end of this intergalactic trip, you will perhaps be left without a souvenir to hum along to.
Listen to 'Rainbow Road' or 'Kraken' for the full experience.
'Silent Earthling' is out now via Century Media Records
