We got up early this morning and went for our usual walk. It's nice and cool in the morning. Some of the barges come very close to the shore. We could almost reach out and touch one this morning. This tug was probably pushing a dozen barges.
We were going to go into the city, but Nancy decided to do laundry (free) at the brand new laundromat with the big fancy, new front load washers and dryers. It's only a few hundred feet away. She thought she was going to go without me, but no deal. I was going or everyone in the park was going to hear about it. I've made a lot of friends, here. The men, mostly, seem to like having me around. It's strange, but there are no other dogs so I get all the attention. The man next door offered to babysit for me while Nancy did the laundry, but I wanted to go. He's in a chair with wheels and I don't suppose he would have enjoyed the ride as I pulled him chasing after Nancy. While the laundry was doing its thing, Nancy cleaned the camper. I know my hair is a pain in the neck for her, but I can't help it, and she doesn't complain. So, once all the chores were done, she said I could go for a swim. Not in the Mississippi (it's too swift right, now), but there are a couple of small lakes--ponds, really, that I've been eyeing each time we walk. They're right across the road from our camper. Nancy went to the truck, and out it came--the green thing, but she also had a ball for me. Oh, how I love my balls!!! She got it on--I tried not to give her a hard time so it was pretty easy. When she threw the ball I went jumping off the bank and into the pond. What fun!
All my new friends were watching me. Word traveled fast. I kept bringing the ball back and they'd throw it, again.
Finally, when I was tired, I decided to dry myself off by going between everyone's legs, leaving their pants wet. Well, if I was going to smell like a swamp, they might as well, too. Then, they won't notice me. I had lots of fun, and I hope Nancy lets me do it, again.
While we were at the laundry, we looked out and there was a big ship going by. We didn't get any pictures--where is the camera when you need it--in the camper, of course.
Well, that was our day, today. Tomorrow some of our friends are going home to Canada. Their names are Don and Pat. We were sitting out with them, earlier. They live in their 5th Wheeler. They spend a couple of months in Myrtle Beach, the summer in Texas, and then they go home to Ontario for the summer to get away from the heat. They are very nice people--we will see them, again, later. The other couple (the man in the chair with wheels) just got their new motorhome two weeks ago, and they only live about 50 miles from here. They are going to go to Oklahoma in a month to see her sister who she hasn't seen since her Dad passed away in 1988. Imagine that. The man used to be a farmer and he drove trucks when farming was slow. They just sold their farm and bought the motorhome. We know all this about them and Nancy can't remember their names! What else is new?
For those of you interested Only in TRAVEL, I (Jack) wrote the blog between March 2010 and October 2010 during our travels west. We saw the most beautiful places and had the best time in our big truck and little trailer. See Blog Archive below.

Jack, sometimes Nancy can't remember her OWN name, what do you want from her? She has to use sign language half the time, and if Gail isn't there to translate......well, you know. We're glad there weren't any other fur people to see you in the green thing. We're sure it made Nancy feel better, but it sure looks ugly. You're a good pup to put up with it for her sake.ReplyDelete
Nic and Mac
WooHoo swimming. We only get to walk through puddles. Too many gators here. You're so lucky Jack. Shake and rub on all the humans you want. We'll always think of you as the handsome devil you are and the swamp smell is Great! Molly and JazzReplyDelete

It's the morning of Friday May 4th. Brrr. I skulk in to a shower then knock back stewed pear with muesli. I slot my laptop in to my bag and am out the door, heading to catch the 7:22 am bus from Separation Street. Outside TripleR radio I meet Anna Rose and we catch a cab to the airport, where we and 5 others will spend the next three days training for and organising an upcoming three-month road tour to promote her newest book, and the most recent tactical maneouvre in her climate campaigning, Madlands: A Journey to Change the Mind of a Climate Sceptic.
Things don't begin well. For one, our flight is cancelled (update: I have since spoken to customer support and they apologised and gave me a $50 voucher. We're back on good terms.) For two, a last-minute change of flight plans means that Anna is flying under the nom de plume of "India Prior". This subterfuge depends on as little scrutiny as possible from ground staff. Luckily, Anna, despite her fame, isn't recognised when we go to confirm the change in flights. We manage to scuttle in to the Qantas lounge, and make use of the free time. In Anna's case, this means doing crucial work toward her next undertaking. In my case, this means grabbing some yoghurt.
Before too much longer we arrive in Sydney, make our way to the AYCC's office and settle in to a workshop for which we are, regrettably, half an hour late. David Barrow, an organiser from the Sydney Alliance, is talking the seven of us through the principles and practice of 'relational organising'. It is simply brilliant. While I consider myself an organiser of some ability, this guy shows me how far I could potentially go. I take notes furiously, marvelling all the while at the concentration of so much skill in one slightly-weedy guy. My tour mates are similarly impressed. The key lesson from this workshop? To understand the subtle balance between selfishness and selflessness, what Davad calls self-interest. He impresses upon us the value of making sure ourselves to look after our needs as much as others', and also the value of identifying others' needs and how one can help to meet them.
Time flies by. Anna briefs us a little on the tour and then delegates tasks with a reckless abandon that would make a mid-level AYCC organiser shudder in to their PCQQRT. People settle down to work, though I'm still chewing on Live Below the Line, which is days away from lift-off. A nagging donations error means I'm dealing with a steady flow of somewhat irate emails, and organising a forum in Wollongong is going to have to wait for another day.
4 pm sweeps around and our next trainer bustles in: Kim McKay, who is going to train us a little in media. She generously brings two bottles of white wine, and Anna goes to put one in the fridge. Not wanting Kim to feel isolated in the presence of six people young enough to be her children, I engage her in conversation. She doesn't need any encouragement. By the time Anna returns we are well on our way in to a rollicking story about Google's food, America's corporate culture, and the ubiquity of the search engine in modern life. Before the session is out we'll also be treated to anecdotes about Oprah, and some vocal appreciation of my Herculean sideburns. We'll also learn a lot about media engagement. The key lesson from this workshop? Working with the media requires one to be a facilitator for journalists – to make their job as easy as possible by supplying neutral media releases, by being available, and by suppling as much content as possible.
Evening time comes and we're soon packing out and heading to the house of one of our own for dinner. Then plans, as they are want to do, change, and we wind up in a Vietnamese restaurant. It's a fun experience. In a fit of effectiveness and directive leadership, Anna planned the menu on the train and has an order ready when we arrive. I'm in the middle of the table, with the two other men to my right, and the four women to my left. As the courses begin to pile up, I'm party to two competing narratives. On my left: "How will we eat this?", "Maybe we can take some home?", "Should we ask them to cancel the salad?". On my right: "Om nom nom", "Man I'm hungry", "This is delicious". Myself, I'm just struggling to deal with the consequences of my masochistic preoccupation with chilli.
I'd begun yawning in the middle of the media workshop, much to the consternation of Kim. The food is now having its effect on me, and I'm swaying gently side-to-side, avoiding speaking lest I say something stupid or highly controversial. Shortly we finish and go our separate ways and I find myself a bed on Anna's couch. I read a few chapters of Madlands. My eyes glaze over. I sleep.

Happy Father's Day to three of the most important men in my life!
First…and MOST important…my Father in Heaven! I am thankful everyday that He loves me more than anyone else I know, He takes care of my every need, and He truly has my best interest at heart! He has a plan and purpose for me! He NEVER lets me down, fails me, or goes back on His word! I love Him more and more everyday! Happy Fathers Day – Father!
Second man…my Daddy. He is the best Daddy! Not many people can say this but…I have never seen my Daddy drunk, be mean to my Mother, speak ill of other people, or not do everything in his power to make sure I had the best of everything in my life! Yes…I am a Daddy's girl…and a Momma's girl…I have everything I need – I am truly blessed! Last but certainly NOT least…the newest Father in my family…the Father to my son…great applause and standing ovation for my Randy! I have to tell you…I always thought Randy would be a good Daddy…but I never could have imagined he would be the sort of Daddy that he is…he is not a Father…he is a Daddy! John is VERY blessed to have a Daddy that loves him like his Daddy does. It doesn't matter if he has a muddy diaper or icky-sticky on his hands…Daddy is right there in the middle of it! Speaking of middle…if it is the middle of the night…Daddy is there too! I am so thankful that my Father brought us together…let us fall apart…come back together….and be better than ever! This is my happily ever after! I could not have chosen a better man to be the father…Daddy to my son!

As in a hall of mirrors, it is sometimes hard to tell if I am moving forward in my recovery. Likewise, as promises are fulfilled, their obtuse arrival is a quandary. The juxtaposition of acute homecoming of former faculties is also startling. How the light finds and reflects itself from sober face to sober face, from open heart to open mind, is the spectral of hope to me. My soul seeks me day after day though I left it so far behind. It brings to me the person of God's intent and my new acquaintance. Patience, never my virtue, finds me stacked with packages delivered in piles so high I can't keep up with opening them. Never in my life have I known less about my future or felt more assured.
Earn your own respect.
Suit up, Show up
I stand naked, paralyzed,
unable to reach my intended destination
or any destination at all.
Goose flesh is no real motivation
and I am reluctant to use the prod
having only produced resistance
and reversals with past applications of this weapon.
Entreatment might work
if only I could find the right one;
then again anything might work if it were a fit.
Covering my all-together is an action;
taken judiciously it sometimes is all the arrival I can manage,
taken disingenuously it precludes the chance
for any further forward motion
and may create setback or retreat.
I should not attempt to hide fear with wardrobe
though I can try to warm it.
Façade building is best done with a bottle in tow
reality is best faced with a sponsor by my side.

I decided to make use of a hidden corner by adding above the doors a set of bookshelves. In the end I actually took down the one running along the right – in the room it just felt like too much and we actually didn't have as many books as I initially thought. I love how now that corner has a cozy feeling, where before it was just the last stop on the way out!
For this project – 1 1×6 cut to size (to give you an idea, you can get 8 feet of this pine at Home Depot for $5), a dash of whatever paint, and 2 5×6 brackets (78 c each). Total cost, assuming you have some paint, around $8. I am going to make use of the leftover wood by putting another one of these above the door at the end of the hallway. So many places to cozy books!

Here is a much better picture of the corner, using a proper camera!

Monday 20th March 2006.
The bulkhead between the engine room and our galley was tacked into place ready for the final welding. The strip of steel drilled for wood and screws, that will hold the canvas in place was welded along the gunwale, where our under the canvas saloon will be. Roger had begun to cut out the beginnings of the handrails that will run along the roof top, port and starboard.
Tuesday 21st March.
Steve 1 was busy cutting out the hatchways on the engine room. Roger was scoring a line 2 inches below the gunwale, to make it look like wood was planted on the gunwale. We know it is only fake, but it does finish it off properly. Roger like's to make sure all the detail is correct as do we. Roger then took off the temporary bracing that was throughout the hold. It looks massive now that it is completely cleared.Steve1 then make the sides for all the hatchway's ready for the lids.
Wednesday 22nd March.
More scoring of the imitation wood along the gunwale was done on the port side. To do this scoring a line is drawn with chalk, 2 inches down from the top of the gunwale. Then a straight, flat piece of steel is tacked to the gunwale, and an angle grinder is then used to score in the final line. The doors were made for the engine room on the port side.Back doors for the boatman's cabin, engine room starboard side doors, and hatch lids were chalked out on a sheet of steel ready for cutting out.
Thursday 23rd March.
Steve 2 cut out the galley window door's for the port side, tacking on the hinges and grinding them all back. Port side engine room doors were welded into place. Roger finished cutting out the handrails, he then set about welding on the posts.
Friday 24th March.
Port side window doors are welded into place. The Starboard door's for the engine room were welded on. The handrails were tacked into place on the roof of the boatman's cabin, shower room and galley on the port side. The doorway of the rear boatman's cabin was reinforced ready to take the doors. Also the sliders were welded on for the hatch when it is made.Roger cut out, bent and welded into place the beam holders in the open hold. The holders will hold the wooden beams that go across the hold and cover up the shackles. Roger also started welding on the half rings which the shackles will be attached to. I stood watching as the beam holders were cut out, and it totally amazed me how quick and easy it is to cut steel with a torch. It's like a hot knife through butter. It also makes you realise when they always wear safety gear such as goggles etc, because it is also very dangerous. As you have read it has been a very productive week, it was hard to know where to take the photographs next, but we had a great time watching all the work going on and will continue to enjoy this journey as it unfolds.

Bolaoyebade at travelnoire recently nominated me for the ABCs of Travel Tag, so I'd like to give her a massive thank you for giving me the opportunity to think back on some of the amazing trips I've been on over the years. I haven't been following her blog for very long, but every post I've read I've really enjoyed!
So without further ado, let's get on with the tag…
Age you went on your first international trip
Although my family and I are Scottish, I wasn't actually born in Scotland – I was born in Hong Kong when my parents were living and working there….so I guess you could say birth?! I think (Mum, please correct me if I'm wrong on this) I went on my first international trip back to the UK to see family when I was 6 weeks old.
Best (foreign) beer you've had and where
I didn't actually start drinking alcohol until my year abroad in Spain that I'm just back from, so I'm gonna have to say Cruzcampo.
Cuisine (favourite)
As a Brit, I think I'm contractually obliged to say that I love a good roast dinner.
Destinations – favourite, least favourite, and why
My favourite destination has to be Costa Rica. I went for a month between my fifth and final year of secondary school with four other pupils and it was amazing!! We spent a week on a turtle preservation sanctuary helping build accommodation and research the baby turtles, another week living with indigenous people in the mountains improving sanitation in a local school, and another week trekking through the rainforest, with some days off in between to relax. It was honestly an incredible experience that I would love to repeat (especially now I can actually speak Spanish).
Experience abroad that made you say "wow"
During a holiday to Split last year with my friend Louise we went on a five island boat trip one day and one of the stops was this amazing cave just off the island of Komiža. Just look at how blue the water is! Definitely a "wow" moment. There are only certain times of the day when you can witness the water lighting up this colour due to the sunlight from outside the cave reflecting off the white cave floor.
Favourite mode of transportation
Those of you who've been reading since I started this blog back in September will have read my tangents about how much I adore Spanish high speed rail, so it should come as no surprise that trains are my favourite mode of transportation.
Greatest feeling while travelling
Communicating and making friends with locals, whether in English or another language.
Hottest place you've travelled to
Definitely Sevilla and Alcalá. It was getting up to 38/39 degrees the week I left and my pale Scottish skin couldn't handle it.
Incredible photo you've taken and where
That obligatory Nyhavn photo in Copenhagen.
Journey that took the longest
Picture the scene: a bus load of around 40 13-17 year olds en route to Fürth in Germany for the annual school German exchange. We're all sleep deprived thanks to the boys at the back of the bus singing 'Do You Really Want to Hurt Me' at about 3am. More than a day into the journey, we get stranded on the autobahn miles from Bavaria. The sun is blazing down, and we're starting to overheat because we should have arrived hours ago and have now ran out of water. A family in the Audi next to us start taking out disposable barbecues and firing up the burgers right there on the road. We're all slowly losing our minds, even the teachers. Eventually traffic starts moving again, and 32 hours after setting off, we finally arrive in Fürth. By far, the longest journey I've ever taken.
Keepsake from your travels
I always keep my tickets: trains, planes, and automobiles. I have half a wardrobe and various scrapbooks filled with them.
Let-down sight, why and where
Not so much a sight, but rather a city. Said it before and I'll say it again, I can't put my finger on why exactly but I don't really like Málaga that much.
Moment that you fell in love with travel
There isn't really a single moment, more the fact that I've been lucky enough to travel quite a lot in my fairly young life has made me love it and want to do more of it.
Nicest hotel you've stayed in
I'm not counting the hotels my parents have paid for in this, so the nicest place I've ever stayed was Sara Apartments in Split last year with my friend Louise. It was just the right size and in a perfect location! #notspon
Obsession – what are you obsessed with taking pictures of while travelling?
I mean, this doesn't just apply to when I'm travelling, but cats. Always.
Passport stamps – how many and where from?
I don't have any on my current passport because I've only travelled in the EU since renewing it, but on my previous one I had quite a few: Hong Kong, Australia, Singapore, the USA (New York City), Costa Rica, and Croatia (Dubrovnik).
Quirkiest attraction you've visited and where
Croatia making yet another appearance on this list with this absolute gem of an attraction: Froggyland. A museum dedicated to over 500 taxidermy frogs set up in various situations and poses. Trust me, it's definitely weird as it sounds. If you're ever in Split, please do yourself a favour and go visit this place.
Recommended sight, event, or experience
If you've never done it before, I'd recommend solo travel. Even if it's just for a few days, it helps you learn a lot about yourself. Maybe surprisingly, I only solo travelled for the first time just last year when I went to Copenhagen in June. I'd travelled with friends and family before then, but going completely alone somewhere helps you become a lot more independent.
Splurge – something you have no problem forking out for while travelling
Food. I'm a sucker for a good meal. This is the delicious dinner I had on my last night in Faro last year.
Touristy thing you've done
Did you mean the entirety of my trip to New York City with my family back in 2008?!
Unforgettable travel memory
The time the sole of my hiking boots broke on day three of four of trekking through Corcovado National Park in Costa Rica. During the last day the soles were literally held together with string so that I didn't have to hike barefoot. I will absolutely never forget the feeling of elation when we finally finished the trek and I could ditch the boots.
Visas – how many and where for?
I was lucky enough to go to Australia with my family back in 2004 and we stopped off in Hong Kong on the way there and Singapore on the way back. I honestly can't remember whether or not we needed visas because it was so long ago, but I guess we probably did. I also needed an ESTA to enter the USA when I went to New York in 2008 and again when travelling through en route to Costa Rica in 2010.
Wine – best glass of wine while travelling and where
Not a wine drinker, I'm afraid. Although I did try some sherry when I visited Jerez which was very nice, even if I was loaded with the cold and couldn't fully appreciate it.
Xcellent view and where from?
Þingvellir national park in Iceland.
Years spent travelling
I guess 24 because I've basically been travelling since birth. Having said that, I only really started travelling properly last year (2016) when I went to the Isle of Man, Iceland, Denmark, Croatia, Spain, and Portugal.
Zealous sports fans and where?
The Commonwealth Games in Glasgow 2014. My family and I were lucky enough to get tickets for both the swimming and the athletics, and the roar of the crowd any time a Scottish competitor took to the track or the pool was unreal. We also made it on the TV during the first night of the swimming when Ross Murdoch and Hannah Miley won gold for Scotland!!!
I'm going to duck out of nominating anyone in particular and instead open this up to anyone reading this who wants to do it. Looking forward to reading your answers! 🙂

Student Thought: So, what do STUDENTS think about "Cash for Kids"?
It's been months since the Bloomberg-Klein Complex introduced Opportunity NYC, a program that would pay students for academic achievement, specifically: standardized test scores. This story has been covered by all the major media outlets, the vast sea of NYC edublogs and even the Colbert Report. Still, no one has asked: "What do real life students think about 'Cash for Kids'?" At Monday's NYC Student Union meeting, students voted unanimously in disapproval of the program. Here are some student opinions from the press release:
"It insults hard-working, low- income students by conveying the message that they could not possibly value education in itself and must need some sort of incentive in order to perform better in school." -- Laura Johnson, 17I tend to trust the opinion of my peers and was one of the students who eventually voted for the resolution disapproving of the program. Still, I personally believe there might be some benefits to the program:
"A student that tries to earn the money but barely misses the cut off score to earn the money will only become frustrated and give up." -- Hasanur Rahman, 16
"[Opportunity NYC] propagates the test prep culture and detracts from other important aspects of education." -- Shauna Fitzgerald, 15
"The cash being used in this program could better be used to solve citywide problems affecting all students like class size and school resources." -- Ben Shanahan, 15
- As my friend and fellow Student Union member Ashu Kapoor said: "It's nice to know that the city is coming up with new and creative ways to help New York City public school students."
- A lot of students just don't care about school and this might encourage them to get involved in school. (However, as other students at the meeting noted, that involvement would be temporary and wouldn't bring the longterm results that we need.)
- It just might work.
Check out two great posts on the issue by NYC Student Union members Ben Shanahan and Hasanur Rahman over at the NYC Students Blog.

ADDISON COUNTY — A man who broke into vehicles parked at a local trailhead apparently dropped his cell phone in one of the cars, and he surprised the owner of the car when he returned to retrieve it.
It's gratifying when a Vermont kid does especially well at the local college.
One student from Vermont in this year's senior class at Middlebury College has had a significant impact on student life — as well as the larger community.
First and foremost, this Vermonter is an ambitious and accomplished student, an Economics major with minor in Education Studies — with a GPA approaching 3.5.
The Addison Independent is proud to publish the Students of the Week from area High Schools each week. The students are chosen by teachers and administration from each school who would like to recognize their exceptional engagement in the high schools they attend.

NEW HAVEN — A man who broke into vehicles parked at a local trailhead apparently dropped his cell phone in one of the cars, and he surprised the owner of the car when he returned to retrieve it.
MONKTON — The Monkton Planning Commission (MPC) is looking for a high school senior or junior from Monkton who to join the commission. This is a great opportunity for a young person to participate in town government and to help plan the town's future direction.
This is also a way for the planning commission to listen to the younger generation's voice and opinion on town matters and a way for youth to engage meaningfully in their community and in the workings of town government.
VERGENNES — Vergennes officials have begun taking steps they believe will lead to safer downtown crosswalks for pedestrians and schoolchildren.
At the Nov. 29 city council meeting, aldermen agreed the city's Water Tower Fund could be used to pay for some improvements, possibly sooner than later, and added Aldermen Matt Chabot and Mark Koenig to a task force that is looking at ways to improve pedestrian safety.
MIDDLEBURY — The Middlebury selectboard last week looked at the first draft of a proposed 2017-2018 town budget that would require $7,323,684 to be raised in local property taxes, which would in turn require a 4.2-cent hike in the current municipal tax rate of 97.8 cents per $100 in assessed value.
Middlebury Town Manager Kathleen Ramsay has estimated the budget — as currently constituted — would represent a $268,000 increase in total spending, but would require raising an additional $373,526 from property taxes.
BRISTOL — At least for now, the historic fire station at 32 North St. in Bristol will continue to stand empty.
The Bristol selectboard on Nov. 21 voted against Bristol resident Robert Bernstein's proposal to purchase the site and make it into a museum of 19th century woodworking equipment. In the same motion, the board tabled its discussion of what to do with the property until after the March 2017 town meeting.
The Bristol Fire Department left the 1897 firehouse last July when it moved into a new fire station on West Street.

How do we know how others would like to be treated if we only look at things from our perspective? Understanding personality and generational preferences is so important because we learn about opposing or differing perspectives. To improve some of the key challenges in the workplace requires this understanding. These challenges include poor soft skills, low emotional intelligence, lack of engagement, and a negative culture. Many articles address how these problem stem from Boomer and Millennial conflict. Continue reading "Improving Workplace Conflict Requires Understanding Preferences" →
Whenever Gallup's research comes out, it highlights the low levels of employee engagement that continue to burden organizations and cause leaders to scramble to do something about it. If only 33% of the workers are engaged, there are real problems with productivity, turnover, and a host of other factors that cost organizations more than $605 billion a year. As everyone seeks new ways to improve engagement, it may be helpful to look at what we already have learned through some of the best TED Talks. The following five talks give some great insight into what do to improve employee engagement. Continue reading "5 Top TED Talks for Insight on Employee Engagement" →
There is an emotional component behind most of the things that will make or break employees' and leaders' success. When someone first hears the word emotion, it may suggest emotional intelligence. Developing emotional intelligence is one important factor that has been demonstrated to lead to success. However, that is just part of the picture.

Pickup artist online dating profile
07-Aug-2017 17:26
Now we can fear the possibility that the guy we're meeting isn't the one we've been getting to know for however many days or weeks.
The guy we're meeting outsourced the task of getting to know us to someone else.
I also wanted to give some pointers when it comes to profile photos, especially for guys who are having a bumpy ride traversing the online-dating world.Während eine einzige Dating-Profil zu Videos und Podcasts zum Thema Pick Up auf hohem. Ergebnisse zu singleboerse-und-ratgeber-fuer-online-dating. I don't think I need to tell you that photos are massively important to people who will view your profile.
It's the first thing we see (your pictures), hence the first impression.
However, once you understand pre-selection and how attraction works on a micro and macro level, you'll begin to see the light in the matrix.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you join us for the challenge!

It has been a while since ÉCU wrote an article about actors and actresses, so we're fixing this mistake by dedicating this week's spotlight to Nathalie Kay Hedren (better known as Tippi Hedren), who is not only an American actress, but also a former fashion model and an animal rights activist.
Tippi Hedren was born in New Ulm in Minnesota (USA) in 1930's. Started her career as a fashion model, THE BIRDS (1963) was the first Hedren's screen debut directed by Alfred Hitchcock. World-known filmmaker became her drama coach and gave her a first education in filmmaking as she attended many of the production meetings such as script, music or photography conferences. T.Hedren said, "I probably learned in three years what it would have taken me 15 years to learn otherwise." A.Hitchcock was full of praise for his new protégé and compared her to Grace Kelly.
After a great success in the first movie, A.Hitchcock decided to offer her the leading title role of his next film, MARNIE (1964). MARNIE is a romantic drama and psychological thriller based on the novel written by Winston Graham. T.Hedren called MARNIE as her favorite of the two films she did with A.Hitchcock, even though the film was greeted by mixed reviews and received no Oscar nominations.
As years went by, it was more and more difficult for T.Hedren to stay in the same room with A.Hitchcock. In 1966, he finally sold her contract to Universal Studios after she refused to appear on a television western show. When journalist asked her about working with A.Hitchcock, T.Hedren shortly answered: "He ruined my career, but he didn't ruin my life.".
So life went on and in 1968, she returned to film industry. After taking parts in different TV showsin early 1990s, Tutti Hedren appeared in many television films like RETURN TO GREEN ACRES (1990), THROUGH THE EYES OF A KILLER (1992), and TREACHEROUS BEAUTIES (1994) where she was positively evaluated by critics. In 2013, exactly fifty years after THE BIRDS, T.Hedren returned to Bodega to shoot a film called THE GHOST AND THE WHALE (2015).
Once Tippi Hedren said: "I didn't think any amount of money was worth something that would take away what you believed in or what you stood for.". So follow your dreams and believe in yourself!

Too handsome for Saudi Arabia??
I got an anonymous tip-off from a friend today about this crazy article, and while the skeptic in me really wants to called shenanigans on this story, it's just too good to pass up.
Omar Borkan al Gala was apparently deported from Saudi Arabia for being too good looking.
I'll let that sink in.
Mr. Bedroom Eyes, pictured above, is apparently too hot for Saudi Arabia, or at least for the festival he was at when he was thrown out with two of his also-very-good-looking buddies. The story is a little sketchy on the details, but Huffington post reports:
"A festival official said the three Emiratis were taken out on the ground they were too handsome and that the Commission members feared female visitors would fall for them."
I mean, I know that I have personally been incapacitated by the beauty of random strangers on at least 4 separate occasions, for I am but a weak woman, but come on. Isn't deportation a little much?
Although, honestly, if there is a better pickup line than "Hey baby, I was deported for being too handsome", I have yet to hear it. Maybe "Hey baby, I was attacked by a bear but I punched it and it let me go", but only by a photo finish.
Honestly, I'm not seeing it. Maybe if there was one picture that wasn't ridiculously photosho-
Okay. Nevermind. Shutting up.

Spent: $42
Saved: $151.34
Total Value: $193.34
78% savings
It has been a long week. I did a lot of shopping tonight. I shopped for 2 friends although I am not going to post a picture of the 36 jars of baby food I bought for the one friend. I got lots of the same stuff I have been buying all week, and anything that I wanted that was out of stock I got RC for. I have more Martha White Coupons coming in and I have RC to cover about half of them; and the rest I will just buy corn muffin mix.
*Martha White Corn Muffin Mix $.59 (regular price) – after my $.55/2 Q doubles I pay $.04 each!
I used to buy corn muffin mix all the time from Aldi- I never got it this cheap!
*Baker's Joy- $2.89(regular price) – $1 off Q Doubled= $.89 each
Yeah, I found 2 that someone had set down somewhere in the store! I love this stuff!
*Bush's grillin beans FREE
I am so thrilled to be getting so stocked up on beans. We eat lots of beans around here, and normally we eat "dried" beans once a week or so. Lately, my schedule has been too busy to remember to soak the beans 😦 So this will be a great compromise!
*Washing Soda- $1.69
I make my own detergent and this is one of the main ingredients. I also have VERY HARD water and this is a water softener. I have noticed since I started adding 2-3T to every load my clothes seem to be coming cleaner. I try to only buy it during Super Doubles b/c it is $2.69 normally so after my $1/off 2 Q it makes it $1.69. Harris Teeter is also the only place locally that sells it, so I am stuck with their price.
*Crisco sticks $1.39
I LOVE THIS STUFF. I have more Crisco Q coming in and I plan on using a bunch of them to buy more sticks. I make a lot of frosting & fondant during the year and I love knowing that my shortening is pre-measured and no one has doubled dipped from something else and contaminated my shortening. I still keep the large cans around for greasing the griddle or making stuff just for us, b/c these are too expensive to justify using for everything.
*Lindsay olives. $2.89 (regular price) – $1 Q doubled=$.89
I found printable Q from facebook yesterday. As soon as they printed I thought they looked fake, but they scanned with no problems. I got them from a reputable place, but I think b/c my printer was on the economical setting it just looked off!
*Low Sodium Kikkoman Soy Sauce $.50
– the smaller bottles that would have been free were out of stock! That is okay, I would rather have the Low Sodium stuff.
*Green Giant Canned Veggies B2 G3 Free, after Q $.30 each
great price for stocking up or donating
*Nutella $1.99- SWEET great for baking!
*Burleson Honey $5.99
*Sun Maid Raisins BOGO @ $4.25
I hadn't even noticed these being on sale. But there were $1 off /2 Q in the paper so that meant $1.12 for EACH CAN.
I ordered more Q b/c the sale is still going on the raisins although my Q won't double but that is okay I can live with $1.62 a can.
I think this & the other dried fruits are some more items that really only hit rock bottom price once a year.
*Krusteaz pancake mix $1.25- I guess there will be no more, the CAT machine didn't give me another Q 😦
*Thomas Bagels – $1.99 evic substitute. My store didn't sell the Nature's Own bagels so they were willing to substitute these. It never hurts to ask!
*College Inn Broth- FREE
I am so glad I bought these Q! I am getting a very full stock of broth.
*Tilapia $.65 a pack- used $1 off Winetags that Doubled so I saved $2 per pack.
* also found some miller light mail in rebates good on $3 back off purchase of $10 of Steak, Chicken, or Seafood. & Another one good for $3 back off purchase of $10 of ham or turkey. Hello, those should be easy to use! And again no alcohol purchase required. I also found 2 wine tags save $1 off purchase off butterball turkey. I don't know the price of butterball so I don't know if it will be worth the extra $$.

This is book four in the Stargazer series and each story is lovely. They all have such individual stories but are linked because the men are from Aerie and before coming to earth they did not have bodies, They were simply an intelligence. Their bodies have been manufactured for them to inhabit and as Aerie's only knowledge of earth was from 1980 films and TV programs sent up in a time capsule all the men are tall, handsome and adorable. They are total inocients and need the help of their chosen mates to turn fully human and to totally understand life on earth.
Kitt, who I think was named after the car in that well known TV series has arrived on earth with two more gorgeous hunks making six in all. But they can not stay at Stargazer with the others so they go to a holiday camp where a good friend of Posey (mate to Bond) has a job as a dance instructor. The camp reminded me of the one in Dirty Dancing. Honey is a dancer with a bad record in men and at first she doesn't trust herself enough to allow her to fall in love with Kitt but as time passes he manages to win her over.
Kitt is lovely all these guys have a special power which is unique to them and Kitt's helps him win his love Honey.
The story is sweet and I really enjoyed it. The narration by Mason Lloyd was excellent as it always is and greatly added to my enjoyment of the book.
I received this book as a gift and am voluntarily writing my review.
This is one of these stories where everything works really well together to give you a great time. The characters, the pace, the plot even the side characters were great.
The narrator did a good job of bringing the characters to life.

Work is a whole different story with stress, I'm glad I won't have to deal with them for a week. Life at Walmart is not fun; to my readers, boycott the store, don't shop there! It is a mutual feeling when customers hate employee's. They come in to shop with bad attitudes all the time and I wish I could say, stay the F-ck out of my store. But I don't because I need money. Listen, just because you shop in Walmart with your 40K+ a year money does not give you the right how to tell me how to do my -20K a year job. So for one week I will forget all this and hopefully I can day dream all week about the day I get a new job... hopefully something with nutrition!

Hey Tom,ReplyDelete
Sounds like your vacation will be somewhat relaxing even though you still have school to deal with. Where on the east cost is Wildwood? I hate to burst your bubble but I don't think that all the horrible customers just go to Walmart. I think there are just a lot of rude people out in the world that take it out on strangers just because they can. Sorry you have to deal with those sort of people. What in nutrition to you want to explore when you are done with school?
Hey Tom,ReplyDelete
First and foremeost, Congrats on your one year anniversary! It is great that you will get to go on vacation. I live on the east coast and it is just starting to warm up nicely around here.
As far as Walmart goes, I hear you. They moved into our town and most of our local stores shut down. Every time I go in there it amazes me at the amount of rude people there are. Not really the employees but the customers. They are awful and I have often said they could not pay me enough to work there and be that stressed. I realize there are rude people in every store but for some reason I just see more of it in Walmart.
One the good side of things, at least your going back to school and when your finished you can get a job somewhere else. I think you will get a great job and finally be paid what your worth.
Have a good weekend!:)
Congrats on the one year anniversary. I am also coming up on my one year anniversary but did not realize how close it was until reading your blog. My anniversary is June 19th and we are planning a trip to NYC, or at least thats what I believe we decided on. Enjoy the week of being able to relax and not having to deal with the rude customers at Wal Mart. I worked there when I was living in Maine and it is so hard sometimes to stay polite when you have to deal with someone who is being rude but I have found the more polite and positive you are the more is pissses them off because they are not affecting you, or at least they do not think they are.ReplyDelete
Sorry I am taking too long to respond. My PS3 has been calling my name a lot lol. Wildwood is on the cost of New Jersey. Atlantic City is also in New Jersey. I would love to work in a children's hospital when I get my degree. Thanks for the congrats ladies. :) So much as happened in one year. This time a year ago I was just starting school. The more I think about it, humans can be rude at times; it doesn't matter if you work there or if you shop there. I hope I can get a good job when I graduate. Congrats to you too Valerie. True story, that's my girlfriends name also. lol. Our anniversary is on the 13th though. I have worked at Wal-mart for almost 5 years... I can't take anymore! How long did you work there? Do you still work in retail?ReplyDelete

happy anniversary….I made this card for my special friend(hi Paula) when she and her hubby celebrated their wedding anniversary recently. My wonderful hubby gave me a cuttlebug for Christmas so am totally in love with what it can do! It's fantastic!!
I decided to do this card in white card stock, using a soft pink ribbon, dimensional dots, silver and clear rhinestone brads, and glitter, to keep it romantically peaceful…like a marriage is!! The embossing folder is Cuttlebug's Floral Fantasy, the rest of this pretty card is made from my stash that I have collected over the years, and have long forgotten their brands…sorry. (that's me though, I forget lots of things, just ask my patient husband!! LOL) I ran the white card stock through the cuttlebug, then I ran the glittered white card stock through the same. I cut around some of the flowers on the glittered card stock and attached the silver and the bling brads to their centres and put them in place over the corresponding image on the plain white embossed card with dimensional dots. I finished off with a really soft pink ribbon tied in a bow down the side of the finished card. I am pretty happy with my first card off my new toy!
…this card is similar to one made by Robin from Bear Lake, Pennsylvania, US, posted on 07/01/09. You can find more of Robin's beautiful work at 'Robin's Artful Musings' (rockinrobin1973.blogspot.com/) -Sally

Well, my week was good! How was yours? Anything new and exciting? Anything crazy?
I know I had a pretty full week! We spent time this week, not only in the Dover town, but a day in Manchester New Hampshire for a meeting, and a few days up in Greenville, which is north of Dover. We had a pretty good time up there. Crazy thing was, there was snow up in Greenville, only for a day or so after we got there. It melted when we were there, so maybe
the New Mexican blood in me is heating up this place! Haha! Who knows, we have had a quite odd winter for up here in Maine, by now there foot or two of snow! Nothing much else honestly, have. Merry Christmas everyone! Remember for the reason for the season! Have a great week!

Jets vs Bills Preview
Buffalo scored three points in each of their last two games at home (and one in Toronto), while you all know the Jets' plight by this point.
J.P. Losman is going to start at quarterback for the Bills in this one, so the Jets will look to create some turnovers from Losman, who is prone to them. That was a theme in each of their last two losses, and the Jets have made more big plays defensively at home, so this will be an area the Jets will try to exploit by trying to pressure Losman. Or so you would think.
With an unimpressive passing game, except for Lee Evans, who is a phenomenal downfield threat, Marshawn Lynch will carry the brunt of the responsibility for moving the offense. Kris Jenkins and the Jets' run defense should be up for the task, as Lynch and his replacement Fred Jackson had trouble getting going in the first game on the ground.
On paper, the Jets match up superbly with the Bills offense. They don't throw to the tight end all that often, and they only really have one prominent downfield weapon in Evans. This means that the Bills will have trouble taking advantage of the Jets' defensive weaknesses.
Offensively, the Jets will likely try to run the ball down Buffalo's throat. Of course, you said that each of the last two weeks, and they just didn't get enough carries, but they will probably control the time of possession better.
Thomas Jones and Leon Washington have run the ball well all season long, and the Bills allow 4.0 yards-per-carry. The entire offense has lost its stride recently, but an effective running game will cure a lot of what ails the Jets' offense.
Brett Favre is on pace to throw for the fewest yards since 2003 even though his completion percentage is the highest its been in years. The short passing game has frustrated Jets fans for a while now, especially now with a quarterback who can in theory throw the ball down the field, and Laveranues Coles and Jerricho Cotchery's numbers have not taken off as many expected. Jabari Greer and Terrence McGee are a pretty solid pair of quarterbacks, so this probably won't be resurgent games for them, but the Jets might not need that.
What to watch for
The Jets defense has been torn apart through the air for a lot of the year, especially in the past two games. Buffalo should be a team the defense can take out their frustrations on, as they are in worse shape right now than the 49ers, and the game is in the somewhat-friendly confines of Giants Stadium. If the Bills move the ball the way the 49ers and Broncos could, then the problem has officially reached crisis mode.
Also, watch for receiver David Clowney, who very well might make his debut. The former Virginia Tech Hokie impressed in preseason and training camp, but an injury closed his chances at getting early playing time. He's been healthy for weeks, but the numbers game has prevented him from playing. Brad Smith may not be able to play, so the door may finally be open for the speedy Clowney to maybe make an impact.
With the stakes as high as they are, the Jets will simply have all the motivation in the world. Any possible hangover after the Patriots and Titans games are gone, as there is no excuse anymore for them to lose to an inferior team, especially at home. The Bills should be perfect medicine, as their offense has struggled and is downright inept without Trent Edwards. As long as Brett Favre takes care of the football and makes enough plays through the air, the defense and running game should win this game.
Jets 27, Bills 10 (final prediction)

USCIS Eliminates "Lawful Status" Requirements in Special Immigrant Religious Worker Program (Permanent Residence Program)
On July 5, 2015, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) issued a policy memo declaring that the "lawful status" requirements of the immigrant regulations for religious workers would no longer be considered when adjudicating the I-360 immigrant petition. In addition, USCIS will amend Title 8 CFR Sec. 204.5(m)(4) and (11) and remove the lawful status requirements from the immigrant regulations for religious workers. Prior to this change, to be eligible for permanent residence a religious worker needed to demonstrate that he/she had at least two years of experience (as a religious worker) and if that experience was gained in the U.S., the religious worker must have shown that he/she maintained lawful status (and work authorization) during that time. With this announcement, the lawful status requirement is eliminated and USCIS will not deny religious worker I-360 petitions on this basis.

About a month ago I joined a queer women of color writing group at the Audre Lourde Project in Fort Greene, Brooklyn. The group is called Tongues Afire and there are women of every race and color from a few Middle Eastern girls, to Pacific Islanders, and black girls alike. I should refrain from using the term "girls" here because they aren't girls in that cutesy dumb way that the term "girl" can often be mis-interpreted. Just to clarify, when I use the word "girl" I mean it in a young, fresh, pretty way-not to say that the women of Tongues aren't young and fresh and pretty. They are. I'm getting side tracked from the point. The point is that after our free write and before we work shopped our instructor had us write down as many queer writers of color that we could. For some reason I heard her say queer women of color writers and then after we started listing names I heard male names in the mix.
Thing is, without adding the men I could only come up with 3-Audre Lourde (which was pretty lame, I will admit) Alice Walker and Stacy Ann Chin. That's all I could come up with. I like to use the excuse that I don't know that many queer writers of color or otherwise because I'm only 1 year out of the closet. (whoo-hoo!)
I decided earlier in the year that I was going to read "The Classics" There are several books and stories that I've read through my academic years but still, so many that were not assigned reading and therefore I never took the time to read. The Cather in the Rye and the Bell Jar are just two that I picked up and decided to read. I'll never finish Pride and Prejudice because I loathe it but I'm currently reading Wuthering Heights and am surprised to say that I quite like it. When one thinks of the classics, though, very rarely to authors of color come up-straight or gay. When I thought about it last night after we were told to think of as many queer writers of color that we could-and as name after name after name of author was read aloud and my right hand started cramping to jot them all down it occurred to me that as an adult female of color I've been jibed.
It wasn't until I enrolled in an African American Literature class at the University of Toledo in my third year of college that I even heard of DeBois or Hurston or Mc Bride. Sure you read a few Frederick Douglas essays or speeches by MLK during Black History Month but there are so many authors out there, reputable authors of various ethnic back grounds that you never hear of. And now, as a 30-year-old trying to "catch up" on those classics that everyone is supposed to have read there isn't an author of color among them. What does that say about me as not only a writer but a writer of color that the classic works of literature that I'm seeking out to consider myself more well-read are the writings of white people.
I will say that my emphasis since Catcher in the Rye (which I hated) has been on female writers. When I'm done with Emily I will pick up the other Bronte sister. I've never read Jane Eyre. Still, it's disconcerting what we teach our children and what we've been taught to be "worth while" pieces of literature. When I've finally published my book and grow to be an old woman and eventually die I'd like to think that a few decades after my death some brave literature professor will assign my books as required reading. It will be nice when that happens that my grand children will continue to get a little bit more dough from their granny's little book she wrote from her computer back in 2009.
Is it the time that's passed that makes works from Hemingway or Fitzgerald such poignant works of fiction-or is it that men, white men at that have told us so?

A moment of silence please for Orpah's golden retriever Gracie, who choked to death on a plastic ball that belonged to Sophie, Winfrey's 12-year-old cocker spaniel. Despite that this happened in May, Oprah still mourns the loss of her pup, but admits that she has taken one positive life lesson away from the incident, "enjoy life but remember to slow down, too."
Despite the new "Doggie Dining Law" that went into effect in St. Louis, they've got nothing on Boston and Vancouver when it comes to the pursuit of liberty and happiness for small dogs. According to Dogfriendly.com Boston and Vancouver were rated the top two most dog friendly cities.
Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick was indicted by a federal grand jury, in an investigation of illegal dog fighting. Hopefully they'll send him off to Camp Cupcake, or worse.

On Tuesday, October 19th, I turn 59 years old.
Rather than receive gifts this year, I would like to send gifts to three people whom I've never met but who have been incredibly supportive by continuing to visit this blog and to comment on my posts. They even wished me well during my recent trip to the hospital where I received my marvelous new hip. Leslie, Linda and Rick have become cyber connections and I am grateful. There are times that I didn't feel like getting up early and posting a new image yet I did, knowing that they would be expecting it.
I would like to send each of you a small study from my sketchbooks. I believe Leslie would like a fountain pen squiggle drawing. I'm not sure what Linda or Rick would like. Please, each of you, let me know. I would like to be able to put a little matted drawing or painting in the mail to you on Tuesday.
Please let me know your pleasure and contact me with your address. You can contact me through my website at http://www.chriscarterart.com.
Thank you, Linda, Leslie and Rick, for all of your comments. I truly appreciate them.

"As parents of five children, their well-being is our priority.
This is why we would like to help improve the lives of as many children as possible that may be affected by situations that can impair their mental-health. We would like to do this through the use of preventative measures, in hopes of reducing the negative repercussions on mental health."
- Maria and Vincenzo Guzzo -
This is why we would like to help improve the lives of as many children as possible that may be affected by situations that can impair their mental-health. We would like to do this through the use of preventative measures, in hopes of reducing the negative repercussions on mental health."
- Maria and Vincenzo Guzzo -
As Vice-president of Philanthropic/Community Affairs at Cinemas Guzzo, Maria plays a pivotal role in raising public awareness of issues related to child mental health by securing support for school based initiatives and research.
Maria, along with her husband Vincenzo Guzzo President and CEO of Cinemas Guzzo, a regional chain of movie theaters, are the driving force behind the Notte in Bianco fundraising event, which has raised over $2 million initially for environmental cancer research and now for child mental health initiatives. The Right Honorable Jean Chrétien and his wife as well as the Right Honorable Paul Martin and his wife are past honourees of this successful event.
With the support of her husband, Maria is completing her Masters Sc.in Psychiatry at McGill University with a focus on expressive writing and intends to pursue a PhD in the department of Psychiatry in Mental Health Research. Maria is the author of two books: How to Train your Dreams, published in 2015.
A cookbook titled #smartbites shares recipes that cater to youth while offering delicious; easy-to-make snacks will be published and available in May 2017.
Maria is recognized for her warmth and genuine interest in children's challenges. She uses her book as a vehicle for speaking out on a wide range of child/youth mental health issues in Montreal-based schools and for engaging with children who face daily challenges that affect both their work and social lives. She spends hours listening to their stories and is capitalizing on this experience in writing her second book.
The Guzzo family's passion for child mental health initiatives offers support to all cultures within the Montreal community such as the BELZ school for girls, the Limmud Center as well the Shriner's hospital for children the Bleu Met literacy festival – organizing fundraisers that promote destigmitization of the silent sufferers of mental illness. In addition, Maria and Vince have supported and continue to bring awareness to the Bell " Let's Talk" campaign using their cinemas to bring awareness to this destigmitzation campaign.
Maria's involvement in child and adolescent mental health gives her the opportunity to speak at high schools as she was invited to do so at Vincent Massey Collegiate convocation speech for the 2016 graduating class.
In the past several years, Maria and Vince have supported the " Mindstrong" fundraiser as this mission is very close to their hearts because it aligns with their new philanthropic vision.
In 2014, Maria received the Woman of Action award from the Israel Cancer Research Fund of the Montreal Jewish General Hospital. In 2015, Maria was honoured as the Pugliese Woman of the Year Award by the Quebec-Canadian Pugliese Federation by the Montreal Italian community.

A second high priced lot was sold to Dubai in
the Friday afternoon session of the Gold Coast Magic Millions Sale this afternoon when a
Highgrove Stud sold their Octagonal - Simoon colt for $525,000.
Tim Boland, acting on behalf of Sheikh Mohammed bin Khalifa
al Maktoum, purchased the colt, after a spirited bidding duel.
Boland placed his winning bid in the presence of the Shiekh's
racing manager Mohammed Khaleel Ahmed.
The Octagonal purchase came only a couple of hours after the
same combination had gone to $625,000 to acquire a colt by Grand Lodge from the former
glamour mare and promising producer Pontal Lass.
The presence of Boland and Mohammed Khaleel Ahmed at the sale
was a direct result of an approach to Boland by Magic Millions Marketing Manager Annie
"I submitted a proposal to the group and had to convince
them that the quality of the yearlings was up to their high standards. The Racing Manager
has come to Australia inspected the horses available and as a result they've now purchased
four of them, including two of the highest priced lots of the sale," McDonald said.
Asked if she thought they would purchase any more McDonald
said that she "wouldn't be surprised if they did."
Bidding for the Octagonal colt began at $200,000 and rose in
$25,000 amounts before the final bid.
The colt is from the winning Palace Music
mare Simoon, a half sister to Snippets, Quick Score, Asawir, True Blonde and Singles Bar.
According to Highgrove Stud manager, David Thomas, the colt
was always popular with potential buyers. "We would have had him out 200 times"
he said. "Some buyers inspected the horse up to 6 times".
Asked about the horse's brand of 1 over 0, Thomas explained
that it was not because the colt was always the top colt on the stud, but because he was
the first one born in the 2000 stud season. "He was literally born at 1 minute past
midnight on August 1st" said Thomas, which would have made him the oldest yearling at
the Magic Millions sale.
From the female family of inaugural Magic Millions race
winner Snippets, the Octagonal colt's pedigree is chock full of black type. His dam,
Simoon is a winner by Palace Music, who has a late maturing three year old racing in Perth
and an as yet unraced two year old in Sydney. The dam has a yearling by Woodman and is in
foal this season to boom sire Strategic.
Highgrove is a relatively new stud based on Queensland's
Darling Downs. Thomas took up duties as stud manager 4 years ago when the stud commenced
operations, having previously been a senior staff member at Woodlands Stud for several
years. Owned by principal Ron Gilbert, Highgrove has 15 high class mares who are regularly
sent to the Hunter Valley to go to stud.

Quite the Michigan day!
April 4, 2011 1 Comment
One of the benefits of living in Michigan as a weather freak is you get to see so many weather phenomenon, sometimes in the same day.
Yesterday started off with a heavy wet snowfall. Not going to lie, more than I had anticipated, probably near an inch in some areas. Through the day, temperatures were on the upswing and by midnight, storms were beginning to develop south of Mount Pleasant.
At one point a Mesoscale Discussion was underway whether or not to issue a severe thunderstorm watch, but hopes of that were dashed when no watch was issued. The storms that did roll through had plenty of lightning (of course its the first viewing in a few months) and some decent rains. Hail was later reported close to 3AM.
Brett, a friend in the meteorology program here at CMU, caught lightning in the act! Spectacular shot.
I attempted some shots myself, but didn't feel like getting wet. Resorted to taking some video from inside. Also showing the contrasting weather elements from snow in the morning, to convective thunderstorms in the evening. Stick around to the end, slowed down the footage for a dramatic effect.
Decent warm up is on the menu for the rest of the week. There is a chance for some precip Wednesday, and temps will kick up into the 50s, possibly 60 on Saturday. Winter just has a hard time letting go, that's all. With the quick snow melt, recent rain, and semi-frozen ground, flooding is possible. Watch your step and driving line for high waters specifically along rivers. Flood Advisory is out for the Chippewa River through Mount Pleasant with is expected to approach flood stage Wednesday. Places like the nearby golf course and Island Park could have some rather large puddles around them.
