On a scorching Reds Day at Kings Island, centerfielders Billy Hamilton and Tyler Holt and pitcher Keyvius Sampson fielded questions from fans.
Most of the questions were softball lobs, like "What's your favorite number?" and "Who is your role model?" or "How can I get better at T-Ball?" The three Reds answered the questions earnestly and with some humor, taking any excuse to joke about skinny Billy is.
But the crowd went silent when 11-year-old Nick asked "How do you feel about the Jay Bruce and Yasiel Puig trade?"
Trading Bruce for the Dodgers outfielder is one of the many Bruce trade rumors -- this one was asserted by FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal. But nonetheless, Reds fans have known Bruce is on the chopping block for most of the season.
After Nick repeated the question for the player panelists, Holt said "This one's for you, Billy."
"I hope not, to be honest with you," Hamilton responded. "We don't want to see him leave. I don't care who it is, man, we love him. That guy is a great guy and a great player. Jay Bruce is the best."
Sampson and Holt shook their heads in agreement and both said "he's the best."
"He's a good dude, man," Sampson said. "My first day in locker room, he came up to me and said 'If you need a place to stay, I'll help you out.' Coming up, when you see a veteran guy come up to you like that, it's kind of a big deal. I don't want to see him leave."
Then Holt cut in to defend the Reds' ugly 2016 season and the teams' veterans.
"The guys we have in the locker room, the core guys, I know we aren't winning this year, but these guys come in day in and day out, it might not show it but everyone puts in their part," he said. "We don't think it's a losing season, we're trying to get better and we know things will turn around for us."
Their answers got a big round of applause.
The questions toned down after that; a girl named Andrea got the mic, and she asked if any of the players would ride Banshee with her.

THE pub at Tilpa in far west NSW has more than a century of stories under its belt; although none can top the one about the man who built the single storey tin and timber wayside stop, late in the 19th century.
Known to have regularly taken a strap to his wife and young women servants, Edward Montgomery Perrott was a wealthy grazier, who owned and operated the sheep property, Rosedale Station, near Tilpa.
Perrott built the Royal Hotel at Tilpa, on the Darling River about 900km north-west of Sydney, in 1894.
Tilpa already had a pub when the 30-year-old grazier slapped together his jerry-built watering hole to cater for the region's big drinking shearers in 1894.
Perrott's Royal Hotel joined the quaintly named Wee Water Hotel, which was established almost 30 years previous, by 46-year-old James Buckley.
This is the story of Tilpa's two pubs – the Royal and the Wee Water.
Let's start with the Wee Water.
Born in London, Buckley came to Australia as a young man seeking his fortune on the Bendigo gold diggings. Before arriving in Tilpa to open the Wee Water Hotel in January 1877, he had kept a bakery at Wilcannia.
After a couple of years at the Wee Water, Buckley, with his wife and children, left in 1881 to establish another pub near Bourke – the East Tooralo Hotel, which he ran for 15 years. Tilpa's first publican died in Bourke in 1913 at the age of 72.
The Wee Water's most notorious host was former mounted trooper, Henry Skipper, who took over the running of the pub when he married the widow of publican John Huffman.
Skipper was born in Deniliquin, and came to Bourke in the middle of the 1880s as a mounted trooper. Later he was in charge of a police station at Bellcolligy, between Compadore and Curranyalpa, about 130km from Cobar. He resigned from the police force in 1885 to take over the Wee Water Hotel, after marrying the proprietress, Mary Luffman, a widow, who had a young family.
The Skipper family did it tough trying to make a living, according to a newspaper correspondent who visited the Wee Water Hotel in October 1892. The Bacchus Marsh reported:
I fell over two or three wet embankments, and stuck my head through a wire fence trying to find my way out and around to H. Skipper's Weewater hotel. It is the only hotel here, and Admans's large store the only store. I soon learned that bad navigation, and heavy freights were worse than the vilest protection for putting prices up. A nine pence bottle of 'English Pale Ale' is only worth two shillings at Skipper's and he's out of supplies at those figures. He's been looking for cargo for weeks. Admans, too, has to stand on a chair in order to mark his prices up high enough to cover the ruinous cost of getting goods here from anywhere. I don't blame these men. I am sorry for them. I am also sorry for the customer who has to live in these wilds and wastes, and has to reach clear through his pockets, around under a bank counter, or over a mortgage for enough money to buy something on the Darling, or, which is worse, trying to get it cheaper by shipping it himself.
The Wee Water closed for business in 1897 after Skipper was sent to prison for pointing a loaded gun to the head of a police constable.
When Constable Parkes heard that Skipper was carrying a revolver, he confronted him at the pub, and asked him to surrender his weapon. Instead, hot-headed Skipper pointed the loaded revolver at the constable, and threatened to shoot him.
As a result, the publican spent six months in gaol after appearing before the courts in June 1897. The pub closed for business, and although Skipper, after his release, made an attempt to re-open it, the Wee Water never sold beer again.
Skipper worked on various stations in the Tilpa district after his prison time. He went to Bourke in 1935 and remained there until his death at the age of 86 in 1945. His wife died in 1941.
Lucky for Tipla's hard drinking shearers, there was another pub to keep them lubricated, after the Wee Water closed in 1897.
The Royal Hotel at Tilpa was built by Edward Perrott and leased to George Drew, who gained a license on April 13 1894. It would have been unwise for Perrott to host the pub, as it was the place where the shearers often cashed their cheques, where they drank most of their wages, before returning to the sheds. It wouldn't have been a good look for Perrott to pay his shearers, and then cash and take their cheques.
Also, another reason Perrott never immediately hosted his pub is that prior to building the Royal, the shearers went on strike, owing to the grazier refusing to build a killing-pen for ration sheep nearer to his men's hut in 1892.
Perrott eventually summonsed the shearers to return to the clippers through the law courts. He wouldn't have been a popular publican. He leased his newly built pub to George Drew, and returned to managing his vast sheep station.
The grazier was one of the best known figures in the pastoral industry in Australia during the turn of the 19th century. Born at Haroldston, near Armidale, he sought adventure in the vast spaces of northern Queensland and was a noted horseman.
On four different occasions he overlanded large mobs of cattle, up to 1,000 in each line from Queensland's Gulf country through to the New England district in NSW.
At the time of his death in 1935 he was the managing director of EM Perrott and Co., Ltd., which held vast cattle stations in NSW and Queensland. But there was also a dark side to the cattleman.
His wife, Isabella was granted a divorce from her husband in 1921 on the grounds of cruelty. Mrs Perrott complained that her husband persisted in flogging her and her two girl wards, as well as a domestic servant, on the bare skin, with a leather strap. The grazier was never far from controversy.
While in Sydney for business in 1932, Perrott, aged 65, went missing for several days before he was found bound and gagged in a Bondi flat.
Perrott said that he had been lured to the flat and held captive until he agreed to sign two cheques for amounts aggregating £15,000. He was lured firstly to a Darlinghurst flat, after he was told that a man wished to buy one of his Sydney suburban properties, and held captive until he signed the cheques.
Perrott refused and was tied to a chair with rope. He was kept for two days in the Darlinghurst room, and was periodically threatened by the men.
On the fourth day he was taken in a closed car to the Bondi flat, where he said he was ill-fed, and was almost exhausted before he realised that any cheque he signed would have to pass through a Sydney wool agency for counter-signing. He realised his absence by then surely must have been reported to the police, and he told his captors that he would sign the two cheques for £15,000.
The cheques were presented almost at once, but payment was refused, and, police tracked Perrott to the Bondi flat where they found him still being held captive.
Engineer, Henry Edward Messervy, aged 43, and plantation manager, Allan George Kelly, aged 32, were charged with having with menaces demanded money from Perrott. Messervy was sentenced to five years behind bars, while Kelly received three.
Perrott's wife ended-up returning to him, and they saw out their finals years together on their Scone property "St Aubyns". He died in 1935 at the age of 72, and his widow Isabella followed her husband to the grave in 1937.
The freehold of the pub was later bought by William Michael, who also held its license during the late 1920s and 30s.
Terry Everson tells the story of how his father, Roy had to swim the river in the 1950s to get the punt driver out of the pub.
"There was a round bit of steel on a support and a hammer to bang on it to alert the punt driver on the other side the river; but he couldn't hear it in the pub."
Amusingly, Roy was prevented entering the pub because he wasn't wearing a shirt! Terry says this was strange for an outback pub "in those days".
In the end though, Roy did manage to summon the punt driver.
Three years before the pub's sign was officially changed from the Royal to the Tilpa, author, John Larkins captured a glimpse of one of the characters who frequented its bar in his 1973 book, The Australian Pub. He wrote:
THE priest came down from Bourke in the afternoon, and the faithful hastened to polish off their stubbies and follow him into the parlour of the Tilpa Hotel. Their faces were angelic, and few lips bore traces of beery foam. In the bar a few yards away, those who confined their worship to the breweries made a conscious effort not to blaspheme, for the next hour at least.
It was a regular Sunday evening in the Tilpa pub, Back o' Bourke and south-west a bit – an island in a sea of dust and emus and flies. A stranger came in and nodded when the publican, Stan Garland, asked if he wanted to drink out of a glass. And the locals nudged each other and grinned, and tilted their twenty-six-ounce bottles to their lips.
A sign, BAA, painted on the window announced that this was, indeed, the bar; beyond it lay the flat where all fights were conducted and. Thereafter, absolutely nothing for one hundred miles west to the old opal settlement of White Cliffs. And on the wall of the bar, a poem:
This wonderful love of a beautiful maid,
The love of a staunch, true man,
The love of a baby unafraid,
Have existed since life began.
But the greatest loves,
The love of loves,
Even greater than that of a mother,
Is the passionate, tender, and infinite love,
Of one drunken bum for another.
Stan Garland said: "We always have church in the parlour, and the priests and brothers come from Bourke or Wilcannia. When it's over, the priests join the lads in the bar – for a glass of orange juice." And he winked.
We're waiting for Tilpa's living legend to make his appearance and finally we are rewarded. A tall, old man, the great Jack Robinson, who swam his horse three miles through the 1970 floods just to get his brawny hands of the last two stubbies in Tilpa. It appears he is shy.
"Nah, I'm not so tough. Why there was one bloke here, I remember. He was diggin' a well on the other side of the Darlin' when it collapsed and broke his leg. So he climbed out, hitched his horse to his dray and drove into the pub.
"It was the mornin', and someone said: 'What are you doin' in here so early?'
"'I broke me leg.'
"'I'll 'ave a whisky.'
"So he finished his whisky and goes over to see the Bush Nurse, but she wouldn't set it. It was a real bad break. When you'd hit his knee, the leg'd swing loose. The Bush Nurse reckoned it was too hard for her to fix, an' anyhow, he shouldn't have gone to the pub before goin' to see her. So he went out the back and got an old kerosene case. Remember them? Anyway, he broke it up and set the leg himself, and we all had a few beers, although we didn't make him shout that day.
"He was the toughest man I've ever seen."
Old Jack himself is regarded with some awe in an area where even the women lift bags of wheat. When the Darling burst its banks in 1970 and licked around the kitchen door of the pub, he was a few miles out of toen at his shack and it occurred to him he'd like a beer. In fact, he'd love one. So he saddled his horse Kelly and sallied forth, licking his parched lips. They came to the flood water and for seven miles they walked through it until finally the game steed had to swim with Jack still astride him.
"Then suddenly he was fightin' for the bottom. He was sinkin' and blowin' bubbles out of his nostrils so then I reckoned it was time to hop off. I swam the last mile meself, and Kelly made it on his own. I got to the pub, and they'd all shot through so I drank the last two stubbies I could find. And me and Kelly swam home."
I last visited the Tilpa pub in 1987. The publican at the time explained how the shearers, along with a steadily growing tourist trade, were his bread and butter in the remote region.
Originally from Wollongong, he had had the license of the pub less than 12 months when he experienced his first encounter with the big-drinking shearers.
The pub had been closed for hours, and mine host was already snuggly under his bed sheets when he heard a truck pull-up outside. A mob of rowdy shearers, after a long stint working out at a nearby station, had arrived, cashed-up and thirsty.
Over a beer at the bar, he told me how nothing would have prepared him for such a greeting to running a bush-pub. It was like the army had arrived, with dozens of shearers demanding the pub to re-open by banging their hands and fists on the outside walls of the mostly corrugated iron clad pub.
"What else was a bloke do? I opened up and they quickly filled the bar, eventually drinking the place dry."
The Tilpa pub continues to trade on the banks of the Darling River today, and is considered one of the last remaining true bush pubs in Australia. Grown from a river boat trade along the Darling River, the pub is the heart of Tilpa and a favourite attraction to both travellers and locals.

Medicare Advantage plans are sold by private insurance companies as an alternative to Medicare Part A and Part B (Original Medicare).
Medicare Advantage plans must provide at least the same benefits as Original Medicare (aside from hospice care, which is still covered by Medicare Part A), but some Medicare Advantage plans offer additional benefits, such as prescription drug coverage and dental, vision and hearing coverage.
The following chart illustrates how Medicare Advantage coverage and benefits compare to those of Original Medicare.
Original Medicare
Medicare Advantage
Helps cover some hospital and medical costs
May cover routine dental care
May cover routine vision care
Usually covers prescription drugs
May offer wellness program benefits
Has an out of pocket maximum
You must be enrolled in Medicare Part A and Part B to enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan.
If you're a United States citizen or permanent legal resident for at least five consecutive years, you may be eligible for Medicare if you meet one or more of the following qualifications:
There may be other circumstances that make you eligible for Medicare not listed here.
Most people who are enrolled in Original Medicare are eligible for Medicare Advantage, including people who have end-stage renal disease (ESRD).
To enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan, you must first enroll in Medicare Part A and Part B and live in the MA plan's service area.
A licensed insurance agent can help you compare plans in your area and get you enrolled. You can speak with a licensed insurance agent now at TTY Users: 711, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
All Medicare Advantage plans must provide at least the same benefits as Original Medicare, which includes coverage for:
One exception is hospice care, which is still covered by Medicare Part A even if you have a Medicare Advantage plan.
Original Medicare does not typically cover prescription drugs. Most Medicare Advantage plans do.
Additionally, Original Medicare does not typically cover routine dental, vision or hearing care. Some Medicare Advantage plans do.
If you are interested in a Medicare Part D Prescription Drug Plan, you can compare Part D plans available where you live and enroll in a Medicare prescription drug plan online when you visit MyRxPlans.com.
The first time you can enroll in Medicare is during your seven-month Medicare Initial Enrollment Period (IEP). Most people's IEP begins three months before their 65th birthday.
If you are younger than 65 and qualify for Medicare because of a disability, your Medicare coverage typically begins 24 months after your disability benefits are approved.
If you have ALS, your Medicare benefits begin the first month you have Social Security Disability Benefits.
If you have ESRD and are on dialysis, your Medicare benefits typically start on the first day of the fourth month of your dialysis treatment. People with ESRD usually must manually enroll.
Some people choose to delay their Medicare enrollment if they or their spouse is still working and has group health insurance coverage. If you are still covered by a group health plan, you may be eligible for a Special Enrollment Period.
You can sign up for Medicare Part A or Part B at any point while you are still working and have group coverage. Once your coverage or employment ends, you will have eight months to sign up for Medicare without a penalty in most cases.
If you miss your IEP and don't qualify for a Special Enrollment Period, you'll have another chance to enroll during the Medicare General Enrollment Period, which runs from January 1 to March 31 each year.
Keep in mind, however, that your coverage will not begin until July 1 and you may have to pay late enrollment penalties for as long as you have Medicare.
There are specific times when you can sign up for Medicare Advantage.
Remember, you must enroll in Original Medicare before you can enroll in Medicare Advantage.
You also have the opportunity to switch from Original Medicare to Medicare Advantage during the Annual Election Period (AEP), which runs from October 15 to December 7 each year.
During the Medicare Advantage Open Enrollment Period, which runs from January 1 to March 31, Medicare Advantage enrollees may enroll in another Medicare Advantage plan or disenroll from their Medicare Advantage plan and return to Original Medicare.
Note: The Medicare Advantage Open Enrollment Period does not provide an opportunity for people enrolled in Original Medicare to join a Medicare Advantage plan.
You may enroll in Medicare Advantage outside of the times listed above if you have certain special circumstances.
You could qualify for a Special Enrollment Period if you've recently moved, lost your health care coverage, or faced other qualifying life events. Talk to a licensed insurance agent to learn more.
No. Neither Original Medicare or Medicare Advantage provide family coverage, so you and your spouse must enroll in Medicare Advantage plans separately once you're eligible.
Unlike Original Medicare, Medicare Advantage premiums and out-of-pocket costs are not standardized by the government, so they can vary greatly from plan to plan.
A licensed insurance agent can help you find Medicare Advantage plans in your area and get you a no free, obligation quote.
Get your quote by calling TTY Users: 711.
Keep in mind that even if you're enrolled in Medicare Advantage you'll typically still pay your Medicare Part B premium, which is $170.10 in 2022, unless you must pay a higher premium according to your income.
Medicare Advantage plans are not accepted by all doctors and may require you to stay within a network of physicians, providers and hospitals. If you go outside of your MA plan's network, you could be responsible for 100 percent of the costs for care.
Be sure you fully understand the terms of the plan you are considering before making a purchasing decision.
You can making changes to your Medicare Advantage coverage during the Medicare Annual Election Period (AEP), which runs from October 15 to December 7. If you make changes during AEP, your coverage will begin January 1 of the following year.
During the Medicare Annual Election Period, you can typically:
There's also a Medicare Advantage Disenrollment Period that lasts from January 1 to February 14 each year. If you're dissatisfied with your Medicare Advantage plan, you can drop it and return to Original Medicare at this time.
You can also enroll in a stand-alone Medicare Part D Prescription Drug Plan.
You may not, however, switch to another Medicare Advantage plan, switch from Original Medicare to a Medicare Advantage plan, or switch Prescription Drug Plans during this period.
If you have health insurance through your or your spouse's employer, you may qualify for a Special Enrollment Period. If you qualify for a Special Enrollment Period, you can enroll in Medicare outside of your IEP without having to pay late enrollment penalties in most cases.
Since most people do not pay a premium for Medicare Part A, you can remain enrolled in Part A and your group health insurance plan at the same time, and your group plan will help cover your health care expenses.
As long as you're covered by your employer's group plan, you can enroll in Part B later. Once you're enrolled in Part B, you can then enroll in Medicare Advantage.
Before you can enroll in Medicare Advantage, you must enroll in Medicare Part A and Part B. If you're not automatically enrolled in Original Medicare three months before your 65th birthday, you can manually enroll by:
Typically you are automatically enrolled in Medicare if one or more of the following applies to you:
Once you're enrolled in Original Medicare, speak with a licensed insurance agent to compare Medicare Advantage plans in your area and get enrolled in one that works for you.

Most cases of customer dissatisfaction can be traced back to an employee's inability to find the required information or tool they need to resolve the issue.
Delivering good services is tough. Record employee turnover rates, market dynamics, increased customer expectations and COVID-19 are constant challenges for companies wanting to deliver a top service to their customers.
The more complex the service, the more difficult to ensure a quality delivery. The picture below is a compilation of some typical reviews of a British bank:
The company's values include respect, service and excellence. However, the company clearly has challenges with implementing these values across its large, distributed workforce.
Your Poorly Designed Digital Workplace Is Dragging Employees (and Customers) Down
There are many drivers of customer dissatisfaction, especially in times when we're experiencing a lot more stress than usual. And yet I believe one cause has the greatest systemic impact to the way a company delivers its services to the public: a poorly designed digital workplace.
Employees must navigate a ridiculous amount of information and tools on a daily basis to get their jobs done. Any time they perform a new task which requires additional information, they must find it in a maze of enterprise repositories.
Employees must know how to manage many products, procedures, instructions, training materials and changes of all kinds or apps (at times exceeding 100 apps!). They also have to be able to switch quickly from task to task. In less than 60 minutes, a clerk will do a deposit, replace a lost card, activate an online service, apply for an internal opportunity or request time off and sometimes more.
The 3 Stages of Information Retrieval
Most cases of customer dissatisfaction can be traced back to the employees not being able to quickly navigate through the maze and identify the required information or tool to use.
When performing a task, an employee can search for information in several "places":
1. They'll try to remember
In theory this is the fastest and cheapest way to find the information they need.
The trouble here is that due to the relatively high amounts of information an employee must deal with, their memory will likely fail to deliver a correct result.
Studies show that most people going through training forget half of the delivered information within days of the training's completion. The same happens with the various updates received on all the services that the employee consumes.
Relying solely on employees' memories will seldom deliver quality results across the line.
2. They'll ask a colleague
Having support from your teammates helps improve team spirit and deliver great customer experiences. Yet, chances are they might give you an incorrect or incomplete answer.
If you ask a specialist from the dedicated department you incur an additional cost for the company because this prevents them from doing higher, added-value activities.
In both cases you are interrupting somebody from what they are doing, which can lead to additional errors. Also, you might end up calling a few other people before finding the right guy.
Calling somebody also extends the customer wait time before the problem is resolved.
3. They'll search the digital workplace
Provided one can find the information in a timely manner, this is the most effective delivery method. However, there are countless cases where this doesn't work.
- If the employee must search emails, this is a sign of digital workplace immaturity.
- If information on one topic is scattered across several disconnected repositories, consider using a task/topic-oriented architecture for your digital workplace.
- When an employee has a customer in front of them, they must find the right answer quickly. If information cannot be found fast enough then there's the possibility the information does not exist.
- If information is out of date, you likely have not involved the right people in the organization, or they don't understand how to use the digital workplace to improve their efficiency and the satisfaction of their internal and external customers.
For each relevant task within the company, there is at least one employee who is the internal expert in doing that task. In order for regular employees to properly perform the task, the expert's motivation and knowledge has to be transferred to the employee. The degree to which this is achieved dictates the quality of the employee output for that particular task. It also dictates the general performance of the company.
What Does a Well-Designed Digital Workplace Look Like?
The main characteristics of a well-designed digital workplace are:
- It is designed around topics/internal services of the company.
- Whatever the topic, the employee will be able to quickly locate the Why (the reason why the topic is important), the How (procedures, recent related news, e-learning materials, FAQs, support and feedback contacts), and the What (tasks, notifications, KPIs) around that topic.
- The expert in charge of the topic is responsible for the maintenance of the topic content.
- It is the job of the expert to make sure that whatever information or tool the employee needs can be delivered by the digital workplace in an ergonomic manner.
- It can deliver a much better experience for the employees with a fraction of the effort of a traditional environment.
In my professional life I've met too many people who are otherwise capable, nice, friendly colleagues, who, due to poorly designed digital workplaces, end up being stressed, delivering poor services, and dissatisfying their customers. This must change!

2008 Land Rover LR2 Review
SPECIFICATIONS: Land Rover LR2
Model: Land Rover LR2
Engine: 3.2-liter DOHC inline 6
Horsepower/Torque: 230 hp/234 lb.-ft.
Transmission: 6-speed automatic
Wheelbase: 104.7 in.
Length x Width x Height: 177.1 x 85.7 x 68.5 in.
Tires: 235/55 VR19
Cargo volume: 58.9 cu. ft.
Economy: 16 mpg city/23 mpg highway/17.9 mpg test
Fuel capacity: 18.5 gal.
Base Price: $34,700 (includes $715 destination charge)
The Bottom Line – This new, smaller entry from Land Rover is deceptive. You expect the standard high-riding, hard-riding Land rover of the past, but this is another beast. It's still high-riding, but the harshness is gone. It offers very good over-the-road comfort with Land Rover's traditional off-road capability.
Land Rover's new LR2 is classified as a premium compact sport utility vehicle, and competes with the Acura RDX, BMW X3 and Infinity EX35. It doesn't have the same styling panache as the other three, but it does look like a Land Rover and performs almost as well.
Like the competition, the LR2 is equipped for off-road travel with permanent all-wheel drive. Also, like the competition, it isn't that capable for serious off-roading, with the absence of a low-range gear, although you might want to try it.
There is an iDrive-like knob in the front portion of the center console that allows the driver to set up the car for driving conditions. This switch alters suspension and powertrain calibrations to suit on- and off-road conditions.
Land Rovers have a reputation for being high-riding and hard-riding. In this capacity the LR2 differs from the norm. It is smaller, and therefore doesn't ride as high. It's also softer sprung, so the ride quality is very good. Some of the harshness we have encountered with previous Land Rovers is gone. The LR2 retains classic Land Rover/Range Rover styling, which is good for its identity.
Unlike previous Land Rovers I have driven, I felt the LR2 was comfortable. There is excellent side support to the front seats. There's also good second row legroom with contoured seats.
There is excellent cargo capacity behind the rear seats with the seat backs up, and even more, of course, with the backs down.
Up above, there are two sunroofs; a movable one for the driver and front passenger and a fixed one for the rear passengers.
I found the radio to be a very poor design. It was almost impossible to tune it to find the stations I preferred, even after reading the owner's manual. I was finally able to adjust it by essentially pushing buttons randomly until I came up with a combination that worked. Once tuned, the tone was great and the radio actually pulled in stations from 60 miles away.
The HVAC system, on the other hand, was excellent (at least in the cooling mode). On some very hot days it cooled the vehicle rapidly.
The cruise control was a good design as well and maintained the set speed well. I liked the "British" instruments, with white-on-black lettering on round dials. In addition, the steering wheel had sensible horn buttons, located next to the air bag. In this era of steering wheel-mounted air bags, it's almost impossible to locate where on the center section the horn is located.
There is the requisite number of cupholders, with two in the center console and a water bottle holder in each door. The door pockets are deep and useful. There's also a neat small tray located in front of the navigation screen that's good for cell phones or sunglasses.
I have to admit I was pleased with the LR2, which is something I haven't always been able to say about Land Rovers. It's a good size and has very good road manners.

Copenhagen's Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek set the scene for the By Malene Birger AW16 show; a centuries-old art museum full of granite columns, red brick and intricate marble flooring that provided the perfect backdrop – and contrast – to the modern, feminine collection.
As with SS16, this season's collection took inspiration from the 1970s, but with a touch of a '20s silhouette. The show opened with a full fur coat belted at the waist, a turtleneck jumper poking out from underneath and Perspex ankle boots finishing off the look. This was a style that continued throughout the show, with mid-length tailored coats paired with fur stoles and cinched in at the waist a staple of the collection.
Stand-out looks included loose-fit suits with double-breasted jackets in grey melange, black and navy, worn with low-heeled pony hair boots cut down to the toe, and loosely-cut cropped jumpsuits worn over lace turtlenecks.
For the evening, creative director Christina Exsteen created unabashedly feminine, elegant pieces in the form of body-skimming lace dresses, pyjama inspired two pieces with embellished pockets that hung gracefully and effortlessly off the models, and one-shouldered dresses covered in jewels.
Along with the blacks, the greys and the navys, the colour palette was one of rich teal and burgundy, giving Autumn/Winter a fresh new look. Overall the collection was distinctly By Malene Birger but incredibly contemporary; expect the most stylish – and elegant – of women to be wearing these pieces next season.

There's something about Russell Tyler's new paintings that just shouldn't work. Elements reappear, with minor adjustments, from canvas to canvas, suggesting that the artist assembled his compositions according to a set of rules instead of entering each new process free of preconceptions. And yet, despite their apparently imposed uniformity, or perhaps because of it, the paintings do work, and for the most part they work splendidly.
Tyler, who was born in 1981, is an up-and-coming painter whose work has been catching my eye in group exhibitions over the past couple of years, but until now I haven't had the opportunity to see it in any kind of depth. His current show, Analogue Future at DCKT Contemporary on the Lower East Side, is his second solo in New York; the first was at Freight + Volume in 2010, but the images available on the gallery's website — loosely rendered paintings of cartoonish monsters, including Christmas trees sprouting human legs — could be, if not for the thickness of the impasto, the work of a different painter.
His subsequent exploration of abstraction, however, continues to maintain an appreciable foothold in the pictorial. The gray-scale bands and black squares that frequently turn up in his recent work relate to blank TV and computer screens, which explains why their fluid but rigorous geometry always seems to harbor allusions of functionality.
The thickly painted, brightly buzzing circles, rectangles and trapezoids in Analogue Future — which includes conventionally rectilinear canvases as well as several tondos — derive from the 8-bit graphics of primitive computer programs and video games. From a conversation with Ken Tyburski, one of the gallery's two directors (the KT of DCKT), I learned that Tyler, whose generation was among the first to grow up in front of computer screens, wanted to evoke the games he played as a child, which struck me as key to understanding his use of repeating elements.
The most pronounced of these are two different framing devices: lines of paint squeezed out of a tube along the perimeters of the rectangular works, and a swath of carefully removed paint around the circumference of the tondos. Also, the side edges of the canvases and wood panels are all carefully painted, most often with a color that is featured on the surface.
These devices lend a family resemblance to an otherwise diverse body of work. Tyler has hung eight of the fifteen paintings on display in related pairs; the other seven are two single tondos, one on the gallery's east wall and another in the back office, and five corresponding canvases grouped together on the south wall.
Of the pairs, one set features a large rectangle atop four stratified bands; in another, a dense, imposing form (yellow in one painting, pink in the other) rises like a staircase made up of stacked, gradated rectangles; and between those pairings, two tondos are mounted like portholes, with the smaller of the two hanging lower than the larger.
The most unusual set in terms of iconography is on the gallery's north wall, where a canvas containing a narrow yellow rectangle and a blue/green-banded circle is hung alongside a tondo painted to be the circle's near-twin (down to a splotch of turquoise paint in the lower right quadrant of each). The realness of the tondo in contrast to the artifice of the circle underscores the objecthood of all of the paintings in the show, an effect enhanced by the framing devices and the colored edges of the supports.
The five paintings hung together are vertically oriented (as are all the rectilinear canvases in the exhibition), and each feature an intensely colored central form squeezed between achromatic (black or gray) borders. The imagery of these works, titled "TGL," "R-DOCK," "YGP," "PGP" and "B-DOCK" (all 2013), come from the artist's imperfect recollections of various video games.
A quote from Tyler in the gallery press release emphasizes the indeterminate and liminal aspects of his paintings:
I see my interaction with the picture plane as not unlike my relationship with the screen. There is a sense of the hypothetical; the paintings could be settings for actions that will never take place. They are blurred memories of the technologies I grew up with.
While the works in this show, at first glance, come off as paint-as-paint, the longer you look at them, the more their evocation of memory and lost time deepens their impression, even if you are unaware of their origins. I would even go so far as to say that their origins serve to validate their repetitive elements, since one of the primary pleasures of play is in its repetition: starting anew, following the rules, reaching a foreseeable conclusion.
Tyler, it seems, is reenacting this journey with each painting, but that in itself wouldn't be enough to bring us along with him. Rather, we are convinced by his muscular, heavily worked surfaces, his experiments with tonal/chromatic, sweet-and-sour color, and his drive to make each painting a potent three-dimensional object.
On a broader stage, Tyler is casting his imagery along the lines of artists such as Nicholas Krushenick, Richard Artschwager and others who approach Pop and abstraction not as a dichotomy but a synthesis. And yet unlike comics and the movies — the demotic visual languages, still very much with us, that have fed art since Picasso — the crude, semi-abstract motion graphics that Tyler excavates possessed a markedly abbreviated shelf life. More sophisticated programs quickly superseded the quaint simplicity of games like Pong with ever higher degrees of verisimilitude, not to mention a hard turn toward meticulously rendered violence.
In this light, Tyler's paintings are as much about lost innocence as they are about lost technologies, which is one reason why this work is more effective, and affecting, than Cory Arcangel's electronic repurposing of similar materials in his forgettable 2011 Whitney show. Tyler's transfer of childhood sensations from a digital past to an "analogue future" in paint (which is where, according to Tyburski, the exhibition's title comes from) is an acceptance that experience cannot be relived, and an assertion of painting as a repository of the irretrievable.
Russell Tyler: Analogue Future continues at DCKT Contemporary (21 Orchard Street, Lower East Side, Manhattan) through January 26.

The "GOED Best-Practice Guidelines on Oxidation Control" were developed to help GOED members prevent and minimize the risk of oxidation that threatens omega-3 oils at multiple points along the value chain, from processing to the encounter with the consumer.
Following discussions with its members, the Global Organization for EPA and DHA Omega-3s (GOED; Salt Lake City) has developed "GOED Best-Practice Guidelines on Oxidation Control" to help its members prevent and minimize the risk of oxidation that threatens omega-3 oils at multiple points along the value chain, from processing to the encounter with the consumer.
Omega-3 oxidation has been the subject of media attention, and lingering confusion within the industry about the process itself, how it proceeds and what it does to product safety motivated GOED to create and issue the guidelines, the goal being to keep the industry's products at the highest level of quality possible.
"Because oxidation can happen at any stage of handling an EPA/DHA-containing oil or finished product, these best-practice guidelines provide specific approaches on how to handle, store, and sample omega-3 products," comments Gerard Bannenberg, GOED's director of compliance & scientific outreach and coordinator of the organization's Technical Committee, which assisted in developing the guidelines, in a press statement. "Implementing these tactics can significantly improve product quality and reduce the risk that products reaching consumers are out of specifications for oxidation."
GOED emphasizes that the guidelines do not replace the Voluntary Monograph the organization developed in 2002 to serve as the industry's quality standard, and that specifies the maximum oxidation limits for ingredients and products falling within its purview.
In fact, the new oxidation guidelines are the third in a set of technical and analytical documents that GOED has released to support the industry-the other two being the Voluntary Monograph and GOED's 2015 Technical Guidance Document, which directs members to appropriate test methods and protocols for working with various omega-3 oils.
As part of their membership in the organization, GOED's members agree to adhere to product quality and ethical standards that are as strict as, if not stricter than, any set of regulations in the world, the organization states.

Cast: Dee Williams
Genres: BDSM, Torture
We have had Dee Williams around for a while now so she knows our handlers pretty well. Still, we would like our audience to get to know her a little better, so, as we do with all our models on their live feeds, we take the time in the beginning to ask her a few questions about herself. Dee, her neck held down to the ground by a metal collar, answers questions from our handlers and our audience about her desires, her fantasies, her fears, and whatever else they want to hear about her. As she does we point a heat lamp at her pussy to keep it nice and warm while everybody gets ready. Our handlers start out light on Dee, since, with hours ahead of them with her company, they have all the time in the world to ramp things up. First they wrap her tits up in rope, making a lovely harness that makes her breasts look even more round and perky than they are on their own, and Dee's got some pretty nice breasts. Then they tie her arms with her elbows over her head and her hands behind her back. With her arms out of the way, Matt Williams takes the moment to smack her ass around with a flogger, leaving it red, but not yet bruised.

Dogs in Action
We believe in gunning over retrievers that look as good as they work.
Above, John Eyles and Matt Owen stand to gun incoming Bufflehead and Whistlers. John's dog "Guiness" marks the incoming birds. The Seaway retrievers are well versed in working from boats for late season retrieving. Below, "Kenya" and "Thor" deal some damage on a mixed bag of dabblers and divers. — The Seaway dogs are all well mannered and it's commonplace to see 2 or 3 retrievers working in conjunction with one another.
Big Dave hits the Whistle and handles Kenya during one of our off-shore "Old Squaw" hunts.
