I talked in my last post about what I mean by making a living as a writer, because that phrase means different things to different people. Whatever your definition is of making a living as a writer is, that's great! You're the only one who has to be clear on what you mean.
Now, before I start getting into the really practical aspects of making a living as a writer, I'm going to ask you to do a little visualizing. I want you to close your eyes and try to see your perfect writing life. What would it look like?
In this case, I'm not talking about an over-the-top fantasy writing life. I'm not saying, "The dishes will do themselves, and I'll write one bestselling, award-winning poetry book and picture book after another (in a little writing cottage in the woods on a mountain)." Don't get me wrong–if that life is offered to me, I'll take it:>) But what I'm trying to define for myself is an ideal writing life that I think is beyond my reach at the moment, but that I think is at least within the realm of reachability, with the right combination of heart, hard work, and luck.
Here's mine.
My Perfect Writing Life
Most days, I get up, take care of my morning routine (a little combo of meditating, affirming, visualizing, reading, and writing morning pages) before breakfast. After breakfast, I go work out. Then I spend 3-4 hours (what a luxury!) working on various trade book projects. I work on a variety of things: poetry, nonfiction, picture books, beginning readers, chapter books, and novels in verse. After lunch, I spend the afternoon on the business side of things: emails, blogging, connecting with educators, talking with my agent and editors, mentoring through Mentors for Rent, doing a bit of freelance copyediting on the side. I'd keep up these side income producing activities because I like them (on a small scale), and they feed a certain part of me. However…I want to be a writer!
In this ideal life, I spend about 2 months a year doing school visits, but I group them into mostly October and April, since I find it more satisfying and less draining (in the long-term) to focus on them and nothing else for chunks of time.
My agent, in my perfect life, regularly submits my work, keeps me informed, and makes sales. I have two books come out each year, one in spring and one in fall (it is much easier to market your book when you only have one new book at a time to focus on!).
Throughout the year, I occasionally speak at large conferences for educators, like ILA, NCTE, and ALA (and publishers pay my travel costs to go speak and represent the publisher and my latest book). I also speak at college children's literature festivals—I love speaking to teachers and pre-service teachers—their energy is just fantastic. I make the time to speak at writing conferences, too. I'm a teacher at heart, and I really love sharing books, writing, my process, classroom tips, etc. with people who can enjoy and use that info!
I earn most of my income through trade book sales and speaking engagements that are offered to me, so I don't need to solicit them or freelance work assignments. The ones that come about organically are enough to let me connect with my community of writers, teachers, and kids; supplement my income; and yet not get in the way of my writing (perhaps I'm treading onto fairy-tale territory here).
Although I don't care about bestseller lists, my books sell well. Yay! That means they're reaching people, and who doesn't want that! Recognition from review journals and awards committees is the icing on the cake. But the real pleasure is when, while doing a session at a book festival or something, the room is full of kids who have read one of my books and can't wait for my storytime or workshop to start!
I keep meeting with my critique group, the Wordsmiths, and writing poetry with the Poetry 7, who push me always. I go on a few short writing retreats every year for 3-4 days to someplace beautiful, like the mountains or the ocean or the North Shore of Lake Superior.
I feel caught up at the end of each day and the end of each work week. I write the books I am longing to write and don't feel overwhelmed by emails, social media, freelance work, etc. I have a deep sense of joy and gratitude about being able to do what I most want to do–be a writer.
I don't need to be a millionaire. I do a kazillion different things to meet my income goal right now of $40,000 per year. If I could earn $40,000-$50,000 living the ideal life outlined above, I'd be more than a happy camper–I'd be an ecstatic camper!
This is what MY ideal writing life looks like. Now, what does yours look like? Take some time and actually write it down in your notebook. How much money would you need to earn? What kind of books would you sell? Would you do speaking and other kinds of income-earning work? Or would you just work on your writing and only your writing? Maybe share a couple of sentences in the Comments if you like about your own ideal writing life. I'd love to hear your dreams.
In my next entry, I think I'll talk about creating a business plan, which is a good first step toward creating your idea writing life.

The Israeli Defense Forces kicked off a 10-day exercise on Tuesday, during which they will "vanquish Hezbollah" in a number of simulations, Haaretz reports.
Israeli soldiers will respond to a mock invasion by enemy forces in northern Israel requiring immediate deployment of air, land, sea and intelligence assets. One scenario features terror groups staging an invasion from the Mediterranean Sea as Hezbollah forces launch an offensive in the Golan Heights, while another part of the exercises simulates an Israeli invasion against Lebanon, the Israeli news outlet added.
Lebanese army soldiers sit a top an armoured personnel carrier (APC) as they drive in the eastern town of Ras Baalbek, on August 21, 2017, upon returning from the mountainous frontline where an offensive against the Islamic State group on the country's eastern border with Syria after capturing a third of the territory IS held in the region.
Tens of thousands of IDF personnel are slated to participate in the exercise, Israel's largest war simulation since 1998, including an "unprecedented" number of IDF reservists, a defense official told the Times of Israel. "The purpose of the large call-up of reservists is to prepare the reserve force for war in the northern arena and to adapt it to the changes and developing threats of recent years," an Israeli Army official said.
Part of the mission includes evacuating Israeli citizens from the front lines of the battlefield, also known as the "Safe Distances" plan.
The war games are mean to patch up operational failures in the intelligence and communications domains experienced by Israel's military during the 2006 Second Lebanon War. Forty officers will oversee the drill, dubbed "the Light of Grain," to determine areas of strength and weakness.
It may be seven years late and $160 billion over budget, but the F-35 fighter – the most expensive piece of fighting equipment in history – may finally make its official debut this summer.
In early May, Hezbollah was targeted by Israeli airstrikes on two occasions, spurring analysts to believe Israel might open up a larger offensive against the Lebanese Shiite group in the near future, Sputnik News reported.
"It would be a mistake" to believe that since a substantial cohort of Hezbollah's forces are deployed in Syria, "[Hezbollah] will not retaliate against Israeli provocation," a Lebanese military source told Sputnik at the time. "Especially if Israel attacked Hezbollah in Lebanon. Don't forget that fighting Israel was, and is, the raison d'etat of Hezbollah," the official said at the time.

Been to a few shops already...anyone got any suggestions I who I should call?
Did you call excel
i got mine from peak cycles in golden (bikeparts.com).
if you place the order online and choose "will call", i could be persuaded to pick it up for you tomorrow before heading to boulder. (if that helps). though i think the cutoff time for next day might be in about 5 minutes...
or you could drive to golden.
.And following our will and wind . . .
. . .We'll ride the spiral to the end
and may just go where no one's been.
thks for quick response guys. Rich, Excel was spot on and easy access...forgot about them...
What's a middle ring?
Golden Bike Park
Golden Connector Trails need your support!
I might have one, used on my ss for a few months. I can send up for some cash.

Last week I spent only one day in Lublin and in fact most of it in the museum of the Nazi death camp Majdanek (during the WW II called KL Lublin). I understand that not everybody wants to visit these kind of places but I always recommend to go.
For sure the guide is needed, the one which we had was perfect - could answer all the questions and really liked his job. For 3 hours we couldn't talk about everything and also because the area is quite big you should reserve more time for a walk. All the information there you will find in English.
This is the impressive monument - a gate to the camp:
What is unique in Majdanek are original gas chambers. In the other camps they were destroyed and rebuilt. As you can see the camp is in the city, houses are nearby:
In the Lublin district about 1,5 milion Jews were murdered. I've read a lot about the Shoah but I don't want to write here more now. Inside this enormous monument you can see a knoll made from ground with crumbled bones:
After visiting Majdanek I went to the beautiful Lublin Old Town. The castle has a very interesting architecture. You will find there many buildings in the renaissance style.
Because the act of creating the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was signed in Lublin in 1569 (called the Union of Lublin - Unia Lubelska) you can find there many references to the old Rzeczpospolita. For sure Lublin is worth seeing for more than one day.

I've been going round for round on this decision as my research so far has not convinced me to lean in either direction. Are there any experienced builders or racers out there that can offer some first hand knowledge about this topic? Most comparisons I see ask about car weight and HP/Torque. This is a pro-street car that is driven short distances on occassion for car cruises, etc (approx. 300mi/yr). Here is the relavant information about my car.
68 Firebird
3300 lbs w/driver
474 stroker Pontiac
742 crank HP & 672 ftlb torque
Th350 trans w/4500 stall - NO Trans-Brake
3.73 rear gear
28" x 10" slick
Currently runs 9.90s at 136mph....1.42 @ 60'
I want to change the Th350 because I intend to start using Nitrous, which will put me at about 1000HP total (more than I want to trust my TH350 to handle), and I would like to install a trans-brake.

Results are presented of a computer-based study on the rate of excitation in the active cores of two types of optically pumped lasers as a function of a number of parameters of the active core. The absorption bands of the active materials are generated by Lorentzian and Gaussian functions. The excitation rate of the active core is proportional to the width of the absorption band at all depths of penetration. The plots of excitation rate as a function of frequency show curves similar to line reversal spectra and emphasize the importance of excitation some distance from the center of the absorption band in the slab model. In the cylindrical model, this wing pumping is even more important due to focusing. The effect of refractive index on the excitation rate is also described.

An article in the New York Times by Katherine Seelye, republished in the local Albuquerque Tribune, talks about the radioactive contamination of Johnson Atoll, and the possibility of shipping the contaminants to WIPP. Johnson Atoll was previously used for nuclear testing.
Johnson Atoll is made up of four islands in the South Pacific, 825 miles southwest of Honolulu. The 690 acre atoll was used by the Air Force in the 1950's and 1960's for 12 test launchings of nuclear missiles. In 1962 two of the launchings were aborted and exploded over the runway they built, covering the area with radioactive contaminants. The military also used the atoll to incinerate nerve gas and chemical weapons until the year 2000.
Johnson Atoll was also designated a wildlife refuge in 1926. It is a nesting ground for green sea turtles, a habitat for 300 species of fish, and an essential resting ground for 20 species of migratory birds. The Department of Defense transferred authority of the atoll to the Fish and Wildlife Service in 2004.
Before they left the Air Force buried thousands of cubic meters of plutonium-contaminated waste in a 25 acre landfill on the atoll itself. The Fish and Wildlife Service was concerned about this, as was the Earth Foundation. They saw the waste storage as unstable, due to the nature of the atoll, which was expanded to 10 times its original size to accommodate a launch pad, and during hurricanes the atoll can be completely submerged. The contaminants can be absorbed by fish and carried by currents. The FWS wants the contaminants shipped to another depository such as WIPP, which was designed "to contain plutonium-contaminated wastes produced and stored in steel drums at the nation's nuclear weapons research and production facilities, including Los Alamos and Sandia National Laboratories." Previously contaminated structures were sent to the Nevada Test Site for burial in the 1980's. No matter what its original purpose sites like WIPP will always have their mission expanded, such as a place to build new nuclear pits.
The Defense Threat Reduction Agency rejected the idea of shipping the waste to the U.S. mainland, saying it would be too costly. It was estimated that it would cost $55 million to move the waste from where it was, where the military only spent $1.5 million on the island landfill. First time I know a government agency put cost concerns first.
The article also mentions DTRA geologist Harry Stumpf, also program manager for the Johnson project, giving reassurances. Stumpf stated "The levels of plutonium and radioactivity are so low as to present no significant risk to humans, wildlife or plant life." He further states that there is no concern about leaks, for plutonium is denser than lead and would just sink in the water. Thus the cost to remove it is too high because the risk is so low. Somehow it is not reassuring. Nonetheless the military did cap the landfill and compacted it with extra soil so birds would not be harmed by the contaminants if they burrowed in the sand.
The nuclear legacy is a large one, Johnson Atoll one of many. And most of the time, such as this one, they come back to New Mexico, whether they were developed here or ultimately stored here.

It has been too long, but trust me when I say that I have been absolutely craving the eventuality of blogging. Alright, back on topic. I'm currently reading through a drab textbook about communication and the following phrase just sparked my curiosity: "Excuses place your messages – even your failures – in a more favourable light" (p. 183). See, this is a bit problematic for me. I mean sure, having a reason behind a blunder does instill some empathy towards your plight, but it is not just as cut and dry as this text claims with this phrase.
The nature of our society is one of a constant go-go-go, work-more-and-play-less type, which leaves little wiggle room for excuses to work as effectively, even if it may be genuine. In such downtrodden times, there's no room for error and frequent excuses because there's always another solution… always. It's terrible, it's horrible, and unfortunately it's life.
So what now? Should we be content with our current culture? I am not going to lie, I do love being busy with so much on my plate. However, what happens when all empathy and sympathy is stripped and only product is valued?

Eagle Scout project is a family affair
When Tim Van Oss, a 17-year-old junior at Canisius High School, went looking for a project to fulfill requirements for becoming an Eagle Scout, he stuck pretty close to an area where his family is brimming with expertise: engineering.
With the help of his grandfather, mother and father, Tim designed and built a shelter for the addax/antelope exhibit at the Buffalo Zoo.
Tim is aspiring to become the third generation of Frandinas in civil engineering locally. His grandfather, Philip Frandina, owns and operates Frandina Engineering.
"He's a structural engineer, and it's one of the reasons I wanted to go into engineering because he's my role model," Tim said.
Tim's mother, Roseanne Frandina, is a civil engineer and his father, Jim Van Oss, worked as a mechanical engineer for 15 years before moving into information technology. Tim also has several cousins and uncles on his mother's side of the family who are civil engineers.
Engineering has been a part of his life practically from the beginning.
"When I was little, my mom would drop me off at my grandfather's office, and we would go do surveys," Tim recalled.
However, the shelter he built for the zoo "was really my first exposure to civil engineering work," he said.
Still, his mother prepared him well. During the summers, Roseanne Frandina would sometimes bring Tim to work with her, where he would help her organize her paperwork, file her big drawings in flat files and accompany her on field work.
While his grandfather helped Tim design the shelter, figure the load calculations and the best wood to use -- hemlock -- his mom helped him secure donations for the materials. Tim's father assisted by helping to arrange for deliveries and the manpower to build the shelter.
The project was completed with 35 volunteers, including members from Tim's Boy Scout Troop 5, which operates out of Parkside Lutheran Church in North Buffalo. Tim's father is the troop's scoutmaster.
"He's a math and science kid so he loves engineering," said Jim Van Oss.
Tim describe the shelter as being 16 feet by 8 feet on the ground, and 10 1/2 at it highest point and 8 feet at its lowest. It was designed to be comfortable for the antelope and addax that will be using it.
"The shelter is in the middle of the exhibit, so the animals could share it as neutral territory," Tim explained.
"It had to be right next to the wall and far enough from the end of the exhibit so that if a dominant animal caught it, the weaker could escape and not get trapped," he added.
Tim said he got the idea for the shelter from Buffalo Zoo Director Donna Fernandes, who attended the same church, Blessed Sacrament, as his family.

Hello James!
First, thanks for dropping by Argo Tea to pick up one of our tea-based beverages in an attempt to sooth your throat. However, we couldn't help but feel the need to craft a response after reading your article "Argo Tea and other caloric criminals."
We're a little disheartened to hear that one serving of our large Green Tea Ginger Twist could catapult Argo Tea to the front ranks of nationally infamous calorie crooks such as Dunkin Donuts, Starbucks and (horrors!) McDonald's. Green Tea Ginger Twist, in particular, is a bit high in calories due to the addition of sweetened ginger puree. A large takes 2 shots of ginger puree (compared to 1 shot for both small and medium), significantly impacting the overall calorie, carb and sugar contents of the drink. Out of over 25 Signature Drinks at Argo Tea, only 5 clock in at above 300 calories at size medium or larger. We also offer over 30 varieties of loose leaf teas, which are all 0 calories and 0g of carbs but full of healthy antioxidants, vitamins and minerals! While a 300 calorie beverage is certainly nothing to sneeze at, we also believe our customers should have the option, from time to time, to treat themselves to a sweet, delicious and perhaps slightly indulgent cup of tea. We certainly don't feel comfortable with our all natural, tea-based and cane sugar-sweetened Signature Drinks being lumped in with Dunkin, et al's 400-800 calorie, (possibly) artificially flavored, sugar and fat behemoths.
"But," you may say, "I had to go online to find the nutritional information." Yes, it's true – but we're changing that soon! We have redesigned our menuboards to include caloric information for all of our drinks; these new menuboards will launch in stores by the end of the month. Additionally, we've made caloric information for our food and pastry items plainly visible on the tags displayed in our pastry case. We believe taking these measures only enhances the "Argo experience" for our customers by allowing them to more easily choose items that fit their dietary needs.
We hope your throat has gotten better, though we're disappointed our Green Tea Ginger Twist could not help out in relieving the situation. For sore throats, we also recommend Carolina Honey (240 calories for a large), or a custom brewed cup of loose leaf Green Tea Ginger Twist that can be enjoyed unsweetened (0 calories at any size!) or with a dollop of honey. We hope you give us the chance to serve you again, convert you back to tea and get Argo released from the calorie clink!
Much Regards,

The Marbury Lens by Andrew Smith
Andrew Smith has a peculiar way of writing: he defines Young Adult as a genre in itself, not as just an audience type. He is adamant in his expression of YA as genre so that teens are treated as adults. This is apparent in his recent work, The Marbury Lens. The main characters, their friends, lovers, and rivals are all teenagers. However, the content and situations they find themselves in are most definitely not typical for modern YA. The book is edgy, gritty, raw, graphic, violent, sexual, explicit, and unapolagetically honest. The protagonist, Jack, must lie, cheat, steal, murder, and worse in order to survive. He often finds himself face to face with his enemies over and over again, and sometimes those enemies are his best friends. At this point you're probably wondering why you should even pick this book up, right?
It will change you. It will get inside your head and make you feel like Jack feels. Paranoia will unexpectedly creep into the back of your mind; you'll hear Seth's "Tap, tap, tap" in the middle of the night. You'll keep asking questions, the same ones Jack is asking, and when you don't get the answers you'll want to read the sequel. Trust me. You won't be able to escape Marbury. Pick it up, read the first page. Get sucked into Jack's world, into his head, and then with him into the hell that is Marbury.
If you don't believe me, check out what some critics, experts, and such have to say about it: "The Marbury Lens"

I really like the chocolate suits but love the choclate dresses but i dont know if its to much chocolate any suggestions??
I really like the chocolate suits but love the choclate dresses but i dont know if its to much chocolate any suggestions??
Well, I'm just going to throw out there that if the dresses don't match the color of the suits pretty closely, it might look a little weird–especially if chocolate is only one of your colors! I'd go for gray or black or possibly linen suits if it's a daytime wedding, and put a colored shirt or vest and tie underneath it! Good luck!
I second the linen suits…I think they would look good with the chocolate. what are your wedding colors?
I did cinnamon dresses and chocolate tuxes. It was a good combo. I agree that too much brown might be a lot, but I have seen it done before!
I have espresso Bridesmaid or Best Man dresses & we decided on khakis suits for the GM's
yes, I do believe that all of the chocolate would be too much. Give us more details on the wedding, like time of day formality, etc so that we can better give suggestions.
We're doing chocolate tux and mocha Bridesmaid or Best Man dresses… I had originally wanted the chocolate dresses for the girls too but it was too much. Here's what it looks like:
Although the guys will be in a deep burnt orange vest/tie and dads will be in chocolate on chocolate. But you get the idea!
We're doing chocolate dresses and black suits because having both brown seemed a bit much and the guys wanted to be able to re-wear their suits after the wedding.
Ugh, I have this same problem. I agree with doing a tan on the suits or something instead.
The topic 'chocolate dresses and chocolate suits is it to much' is closed to new replies.

RITTMAN -- If you build it, they will dump.
Councilman Lynn Beaumont made the prediction during a 40-minute discussion focused on whether the city should move forward with constructing a septage receiving station at the wastewater treatment plant, after bids came in higher than expected.
Despite the bid coming in at $463,200 from Workman Industrial Services, Kent, Utility Director Ken Mann is confident enough septage haulers will bring their waste to Rittman, and it will pay for itself.
City Manager Larry Boggs said it was difficult trying to quantify the total gallons haulers would bring to the receiving station, but he, too, believes it will pay for itself within three to five years.
Mann spoke to area haulers who told him it would be helpful to have another option, and they would be interested in taking their sludge to the city, if the price is right. However, Mann is concerned if the price is too low, then it could be time consuming and some haulers might drive off and deliver their waste to stations in Lodi, Barberton or Valley City.
As to what the best price is, Boggs is not sure. It is probably 3-4 cents per gallon.
Beaumont asked if a low price would start a bidding war among the various septage receiving stations. "We don't need all of the business to make it worthwhile," he said.
Mann said he did not think so.
Councilman Rick Hanlon asked if another employee would be needed.
The way it will be set up, another worker will not be needed, Mann said.
After discussing whether the 40,000-gallon, reinforced fiberglass tank was sufficient (it is) and what the hours of operation would be (8 a.m.-3 p.m. initially), council decided to accept the bid and move forward with the project.
"If you build it, they will dump," Beaumont said.
With summer coming, council will only be meeting once a month, and Councilman Darrell Carey asked Boggs if he wanted the rules suspended in order to expedite passage of the ordinance.
"The faster we get it done, the faster we start getting profits," Boggs said.
If council passed the legislation now, then it would be built before bad weather comes, Carey said.
Council suspended the rules and passed the ordinance.
Council also voted to cancel the May 26 meeting, which falls on Memorial Day.

Starsky and Hutch try to catch two rapist-murderers before the victim's bereaved husband, Texan car dealer Zack Tyler, can seek his own revenge.
Zack Tyler: Med Flory, John Brown Harris: Charles Napier, Little Huey: George Loros, Fat Rolly: Michael Lerner, Ray: Nora Denney, Angel: Ann Weldon, Marty: Bobby Hall. Written by Michael Mann, Directed By Claude Ennis Starrett, Jr.
This low-key early episode is wonderful for many reasons. The plot is straightforward, but with a fun kink midway through (the homicidal husband). There are colorful and interesting locations, and a fair amount of realistic street grunge. Starsky and Hutch are invested in the case and deeply moved by the victims. Dobey has an entertaining scene in which he gets to bluster and lose his cool. Dialogue is intelligent, often funny, the characters credible and well-drawn, and as well we get to see the one element the series does especially well: the cameo appearance of a character whose downward spiral in life doesn't negate her shining morality (beautifully played here by Ann Weldon). Little extras too: a couple of well-choreographed fight scenes, some superb gun action, and a general sense both Glaser and Soul are free from any shred of exhaustion and cynicism, and are simply enjoying themselves, their roles, and each other.
This is the first of two appearances by George Loros as a thoroughly despicable character. His second turn as Earl in "The Psychic" is a showstopper.
Starsky and Hutch is not a show that relies on the big iconic image, no "sweeteners" such as palm tree-lined streets or glamour shots of California surf. Very often there no recognizable landmarks whatsoever. This opening scene – and its follow-up the morning after – of the sinister oil production pumps in the outlying desert is a nice exception. They provide a great backdrop to the scene of murder (of Texans, no less) with their rhythmic plunging. Also, as metaphors of rape, they are particularly graphic. Also, too, they illustrate the relentless and invariable nature of time – as the scene fades to morning they are continuously, steadily working.
Zack Taylor and his wife Emmalou are Country and Westernized to an extraordinary degree. The heavy-handed accessorizing includes the steer horn on the convertible, fancy saddle, fringed jackets, cowboy boots, cowboy blanket in back seat, squash-blossom necklace, shiny belt buckle, ten-gallon hat, leather-tooling on the seats, drawling accents. It seems extreme until we visit his office a scene or two later and realize that was nothing – Zack's office is crammed to the hilt with every single piece of western junk imaginable, and then some.
Zack is knocked out pretty easily. He's a big man, a former football player and probably tough to subdue, but Huey appears to do it with one bare-handed punch. Or does he? It looks as if he's concealing something behind his back as they walk to the truck, but it's difficult to know for sure.
Hutch picks up a silver toe piece and examines it, then puts it in his pocket. He makes no move to mark the place where it came from, or tell any of the scene-of-crime examiners that he found it, even though this is valuable evidence.
Nice scene of the Partnership Slap when Starsky urges Hutch out of his existential slump by saying, "Well, we ain't gonna find them standing here," with the accompanying pat to the upper arm. There are a lot of slaps and pats throughout when one wants to alert the other, but in the tag, when Huggy does the same to Starsky, Starsky looks astonished by the gesture.
When Zack says he'd like "a little touch" of what is probably whiskey, Starsky glances significantly at Hutch. Throughout the series, this continual glancing at one another is a crucial part of the evaluation of a witness, victim, or possible perpetrator. It almost appears to be a kind of code, a purely cerebral language system.
In the Torino, Starsky's graceful move with toe piece is a sleight-of-hand he will perform throughout the series. Little Davey Starsky must have had a magic set as a kid and diligently practiced.
There's a fairy tale/Chaucerian quality to this episode (the Vengeful Salesman, the Seafaring Man, The Proprietor Huggy Bear) emphasized by Starsky when he says, as they drive, "You know, this is like Cinderella. We're the Prince, the silver toe-piece is the glass slipper (slippa), and you and me are running all over our little kingdom to find the dainty foot that it fits." It's a lovely touch that he includes both of them as a single entity, much as Hutch will say later in "The Psychic" that "We're Lazarus". Later, at the junk shop, Hutch calls out to Marty, seemingly the protectorate of Rolly's Lair, "do you want to announce us to the Merchant Prince?" Marty, in true Ogre Mode, growls, "you better get outta here or I'll tear your head off."
Throwing Doorman Marty through the door and pulling a gun on either a hapless visitor or employee (whom Starsky knows by name) is a great example of the truly fearsome menace that will disappear in Seasons Three and Four, when Starsky and Hutch are less feral and more civilized. This is one of the first and best of the scenes in which the guys are in full intimidation mode. The combination of genial and scary is always exciting to watch.
Marty stays where he has been thrown throughout, lying on the busted-down door, too scared to move and hoping to avoid the third-degree by blending into the scenery. It's a nice touch. I wonder, though, why Starsky and Hutch don't turn on him too. He may know something, and might be more breakable than Rolly seems to be.
Note the folk-art painting on the wall of Rolly's office that looks astonishingly like Starsky. Starsky himself exaggerates Rolly's hoard by saying, "where did you get all this bizarro junk?" and then grabs a perfectly innocent mixer – hardly bizarro. He then says, "hey, a snow tire!" Seeing how the Torino has probably never seen snow, how does Starsky recognize a snow tire so quickly?
It's nice that they bring a gift for Ray, a photograph of a Japanese tattooed man, before they ask for information. Ray foreshadows a whole generation of great female tattoo artists but were then extremely rare.
Was Ray actually finished that tattoo before she dismisses the girl? It didn't seem so, but one would guess the girl wouldn't really notice one way or another, but she might notice the infections she's probably going to get without a proper cleaning and bandaging of her punctured skin. By the way, when she saunters off Hutch murmurs, "distracting" before looking directly into the camera. He must be, because Starsky is standing an entirely different angle. It's a funny little "can you believe I just said that?" moment and not something that would ever get past an editor today.
Hutch seems mightily amused by Starsky's poetic turn of phrase, calling him "Hemingway". As they pull up to a phone booth there is a delightful scrap about who has a dime and who needs one, with Hutch again smiling at his partner. Hutch, in this episode, is much nicer to Starsky than usual; even though he pesters and tricks his partner throughout there isn't the real edge he develops later.
Telephone Tag: Hutch bests Starsky in the dime wars. This is a minor theme played throughout the series, not only with errant phone booths but with candy machines. (Also, notice they are using the phone in the vicinity of the oil pumps. Is there a logical narrative reason for this, or did the film crew just go across the street for expediency's sake? I'm guessing the latter.) There's a nice echo of this scene later in the episode when Starsky can't get through to lockup and Hutch easily dials the call.
Hutch mentions "trace of heroin in the blood analysis," regarding either Huey Chaco or John Brown Harris. Where did they get the blood? Off of Emmalou's body? Neither Chaco or Harris seems to have been injured. Were the writers too squeamish, or did the censors change the real word, which is "semen"? Would heroin show up in seminal fluids anyway?
Rolly phones Huggy when he wants to give a message to Starsky and Hutch. If Rolly knows Huggy's relationship to the detectives, wouldn't everyone? Wouldn't this compromise Huggy's ability to work the streets as a snitch, or even stay alive? Surely he'd have every two-bit criminal after him.
Starsky and Hutch order iced coffees at Huggy's, but it sure looks like cola or tea when it's finally delivered to them. They don't seem to notice.
It's a great fight scene when The Giant has breached the Cave of the Troll. It's wonderful when Hutch picks up a little coffee pot but then, when he sizes up his opponent, finds a huge vase instead. And also his plaintive "these cuffs don't fit him!" is a comedy gem, and beautifully delivered.
Hutch glances at Rolly and says he doesn't think he'll live through the night. How does he know?
If Starsky and Hutch are so sure Emmalou's necklace is at Rolly's, why don't they tear the place apart looking for it? Chances are, if it's worth $1500, it'll be close by (and it is).
Cut to Dobey's paneled office, which is soon to change. Starsky has written his own tale of knights and derring-do: "The fiery red Torino fishtails to a halt. We spill on to the street ready for action".
Huggy, who had a scene not an hour before in which a bad day has rendered him irritable and energetic, has obviously taken a little something to calm him right down. Waa-ay down.
There's a nice tableau when the guys enter the apartment of the Angel and Hutch observes the bureau: a hypodermic needle, a candle, and a back-and-white photograph of a glamorous past. Angel is a character the series specialized in: the lonely, intelligent, once-successful and now destitute or depraved victim Starsky and Hutch treat with reverence or respect. You can put Sharman from "Running" in that category, along with Carla in "Survival", Annie Oates in "The Collector", Roxy in "Heroes", Belinda in "Losing Streak", Sweet Alice (various), Marianne in "Ballad for a Blue Lady".
Notice how, when Angel breaks into song, both Starsky and Hutch watch her with no expression at all. There is very little pity but no judgement either, they are completely accepting of who and what she is, and how she expresses herself. They don't rush her, listen respectfully, and both touch her hands as they leave.
The scene at the carnival is filmed in a real environment, with real people. This was most likely shot before the series aired and both actors became instant celebrities with screaming fans. After, it must have been a lot more difficult to shoot off-set.
Starsky makes matters worse by playing a game with Cinderella Chaco, sliding the silver toe-piece across the bar instead of walking up and sticking a gun in the back of his neck. Is this a sacrifice of efficiency for the sake of drama? It does look excellent, especially when Huey backs into the barrel of Hutch's gun. You believe Hutch when he says he will blow his head off. This is not posturing. This is not an idle threat. Huey knows – and we do too – Hutch would most certainly pull that trigger. But I can't help but wonder if Starsky goes home that night thinking "man, that was a really stupid thing to do, I almost got that poor girl killed."
The interrogation scene is a very good one, and Glaser is particularly masterful with his quiet voice and simmering frustration. Thank you, Michael Mann, for the dialogue here, which is realistic and bitterly amusing.
Huey Chaco is released because he can't be held for Murder One. Starsky says they should have held him, Dobey asks, "Hold him on what?" How about holding a woman at knifepoint and threatening to kill her? Nobody seems to remember this crucial fact.
Starsky and Hutch tell Rolly he has to give up Harris because Huey Chaco is dead. Without his testimony, Harris could also be dead at the hands of renegade Zack. Rolly gives them the information, but really, he has no reason to. With Harris dead there's nothing tying him to either man, and his life gets a whole lot easier. Starsky and Hutch don't have the necklace, and there's precious little else out there. So why does Rolly spill the beans? It can't be conscience. It must be because he's more scared of the two guys standing in front of him than Harris.
What, oh what does this series have against nurses, anyway? Ninety per cent of them are either rude or incompetent ("Partners", "Fatal Attraction", "The Turkey", "Murder Ward", "Black and Blue"). Only in "Starsky and Hutch Are Guilty", the one time where a nurse has every right to snap at an obnoxious Starsky and Hutch, is she polite and helpful. In this episode, this "lady vampire", is both rude and incompetent. For no reason at all (unless she hates her job, and she might, looking around at the various drunks and losers snoozing in her waiting room) she's defiant and bad-tempered and gives the police as little help as possible. They should haul her in for obstruction of justice.
Assistant Director Eldon Burke has a hilarious cameo as the blood donor who stares dumbly at Hutch throughout the clinic scene.
When Hutch asks for Zack's gun during shootout at the scrap yard, Flory's character gives him the iconic Colt, and a legend was born. David Soul liked this firearm much better and will use it from now on. A note, generally about their guns: Hutch's gun, from Texas Longhorn on, is the Colt Python .357 Magnum, eleven-and-a-half inches long in total (the longest of the three sizes it comes in). This is an expensive, hand-built gun, long-lasting and extremely accurate with good stopping power. It has been modified with a black-rubber grip, a typical modification for policemen, which gives it a better grip and cushions the recoil. It weighs 45 oz. empty, and 57 full with six rounds. Starsky's gun from the pilot on, is a Smith & Wesson 59 9mm Automatic. It's not often used by policemen because of its tendency to jam, as well as its more limited stopping power. It weighs 36 1/2 oz. fully loaded with a clip of 14 rounds. For the show, Starsky's gun is modified to only be able to fire blanks, but Hutch's was capable of shooting live ammo, too. The choice of guns gives an interesting glimpse into their characters: Hutch wanting the best, both in terms of looks and accuracy, and Starsky creative and confident enough to take a risk.
Did Starsky hot wire the vehicle at the junk yard, or were the keys in it?
Starsky's picking up and then dropping the dumpster – a good ten feet – is risky. Harris certainly would be seriously hurt (that giant magnet comes down hard right on his head and back) and maybe even killed.
Filming notes: in the shootout scene at end, one of the few special effects malfunctions on the series occurred when a window exploded in on Glaser but didn't hurt him.
Dying Zack tells the classic fable about the scorpion and the frog. He says he shot Chaco and attempted to murder Harris because it was his true nature. This doesn't entirely make sense, as Zack comes off as genial, hard-working and down-to-earth, the type to help two strangers on a dark road, and not some vigilante killer. If Zack means he is a loyal husband above all, would loyalty alone be enough to excuse him? Is it even considered "loyal" to murder another human being, no matter what the reason? Starsky and Hutch would definitely not agree with this, as they make firm, unvarying statements in several episodes about the preservation of human life above all else, including (and especially) the lust for revenge.
Tag: Huggy is so high he's in danger of floating up and away, but that doesn't seem to bother Starsky and Hutch, who shrug and accept their friend's private habits. Unfortunately we never do learn what the "Starsky Special" is, or why Huggy feels inspired to create one. Beer with a maraschino cherry in it as an ode to the Torino? There's some fake laughter at bad jokes but all is well when Hutch confides to his friend, "I'm beginning to think that everybody in this town is crazy except you and me" and Starsky replies, sensibly, "I was beginning to have my doubts about you."
Clothing notes: Hutch wears the orange zip-up shirt under the blue plaid jacket, both wear great faded jeans. Starsky wears the Adidas he'll adopt for the next four years, and there isn't a leather jacket in sight. Huggy is splendid in the tag wearing a pale lemon ensemble. Dobey looks like a little boy in private school with his navy suit and loafers.

Deadly Deception . . .
Perhaps it was wishful thinking on the part of Hillary Rodham Clinton that some tragedy would befall Barack Obama——paving the way for her to claim the nomination.
They are some who have argued that it was a slip of the tongue or simply that Hillary misspoke . . . while others blame the media for taking the point that she attempted to make entirely out of context.
Rather than expound on what I have already written, I provided the links:
What I will endeavor to do however is to extrapolate from what is known thus far and leave it up to you to draw your own conclusion.
Where the seed may have been planted:
On January 8th a retired New Hampshire teacher while introducing Hillary Clinton made this statement:
"If you look back, some people have been comparing one of the other candidates to JFK, and he was a wonderful leader," said the teacher. "But he was assassinated, and Lyndon Baines Johnson actually did all of his work and got both the Republicans and Democrats to pass those measures."
The idea begins to germinate:
After the Indiana and North Carolina primaries Mrs. Clinton made the following statement:
"Sometimes you have to calm people down a little bit. But if you look at successful presidential campaigns, my husband did not get the nomination until June of 1992. I remember tragically when Senator Kennedy won California near the end of that process."
Nurturing the seed . . .
"Primary contests used to last a lot longer," Mrs. Clinton told Time magazine on March 6. "We all remember the great tragedy of Bobby Kennedy being assassinated in June in L.A. My husband didn't wrap up the nomination in 1992 until June. Having a primary contest go through June is nothing particularly unusual."
The conflicting issue here is that the campaign she's so fond of alluding to started later than this one and Bill Clinton unofficially had locked up the nomination in March, when the last serious opponent dropped out.
Awaiting the harvest . . .
Friday afternoon (May 23), she told the editorial board of the Sioux Falls, South Dakota, Argus Leader that "My husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of June, right? We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California. I don't understand it," she said.
The Deception . . .
"The Kennedys have been much on my mind in the last days because of Sen. [Edward] Kennedy, and I regret that if my referencing that moment of trauma for our entire nation and particularly for the Kennedy family was in any way offensive. I certainly had no intention of that whatsoever," Clinton added.
As you have no doubt seen . . . the statement had been made many times before. Is Hillary trying to make us believe that she uttered this statement because Senator Kennedy was on her mind?
In her letter to the Daily News to allay the outrage that yet another one of her incendiary remarks has caused——Mrs. Clinton claims that she leads in popular votes. What she failed to point out is that her lead includes the tally from the disputed Florida and Michigan primaries.
Based on what has transpired . . . more questions are being raised as to why Mrs. Clinton is still in the race.
By all means . . . Senator Clinton should continue. How else would the up and coming future women leaders learn what not to do to get elected?
Years from now when historians looked back on the Clinton campaign . . . despite all of her achievements——she will probably be likened to a cantankerous dinner guest, who you wished would have had the common sense to leave . . . five minutes before you wanted her to.

There are 4 entrances into Fort Canning Park. Through National Museum, SMU, old Police Station, or old River Valley Swimming Pool. I can remember having swimming lessons every Sunday with my brother there. I'm so pleased that they have decided to keep the old structure – the bathing toilets.
Converted into 2 art galleries for exhibition. There's a ceramic exhibition as well.
I'm wondering where my favourite ring trees have been moved? I hope NParks have moved them to GBay? In their place is massive LTA construction – possibly the new MRT site?
The landscaping is excellently done. Minimalist. I like how russelia is used, cascading bells of white and red, like weeping willows against the black and white buildings.

Disenfranchising Indianan Nuns Gives Oklahoma GOP Ideas

Possible Bullish Inside Day Candle Pattern Detected for Avalonbay Commun (NYSE:AVB)
SmarTrend's candlestick scanner has spotted a possible bullish inside day candle pattern in Avalonbay Commun (NYSE:AVB) based on the price action in the company's shares. Yesterday's price range of $156.45 and $158.14 is within the prior day's high and low of the day. This trading action often signifies indecision by bulls and bears to drive prices higher or lower and often implies a possible change in trend. Traders and investors interested in shares of Avalonbay Commun may want to consider an appropriate entry level in the event a reversal to the upside transpires. It is important to look for confirmation.
AvalonBay Communities, Inc. is a real estate investment trust. The Company develops, redevelops, acquires, owns, and operates multifamily communities in the United States.
Avalonbay Commun share prices have moved between a 52-week high of $199.52 and a 52-week low of $154.82 and closed yesterday at 1% above that low price at $157.12 per share. The 200-day and 50-day moving averages have moved 0.16% higher and 0.58% higher over the past week, respectively.
There is potential upside of 26.1% for shares of Avalonbay Commun based on a current price of $157.12 and an average consensus analyst price target of $198.11. The stock should find initial resistance at its 200-day moving average (MA) of $176.55 and further resistance at its 50-day MA of $182.94.
SmarTrend recommended that its subscribers protect gains by selling shares of Avalonbay Commun on November 29th, 2017 by issuing a Downtrend alert when the shares were trading at $180.78. Since that call, shares of Avalonbay Commun have fallen 13.7%. We are now looking for when a new Uptrend will commence and will alert SmarTrend subscribers in real time.

My daughter Elizabeth was about 8 years old and we were having a lovely summer day at the pool. I had a cold drink and a magazine and Elizabeth was working on her diving. She said, "Mom, grade my dive." So, I watched her dive and said, "that's fabulous." She said, "No, I mean give me a grade from 1-10." I could see that she wasn't going to let up so I put my magazine down and said, "Okay, I give you a 6." I should have seen this coming, but she said, "Why a 6?" So, I had to actually take the time to give her feedback — "You could work on pointing your toes and make sure you keep your legs together." This went on for about an hour and by the end of it, she had become a better diver. It occurred to me that while I thought I was being a "supportive parent" by telling her that her dive was fabulous, I was missing the point. She was looking for ways to improve her diving and all I wanted to do was give her hollow praise. She wanted to know exactly what she needed to do to get better. She taught me a valuable lesson. The best way to offer constructive feedback is to let the person know which skills they need to develop (not what they're doing wrong). For example, it's the difference between telling someone that they need be more "sensitive to others" and telling them that they need to work on their "empathy skills." When you focus your feedback on helping someone develop a skill that they're lacking, it's a much more positive and productive experience.

Thats the idea behind the Seasteading Institute, a company thats working to build floating ocean dwellings where people can create their own laws and ways of life.
Co-creator Patri Friedman says, Its a way to experiment with different types of societies. Anybody with a vision of a society theyd like to live in could actually create one.
According to Friedman, those interested in buying a seastead are eager to build more environmentally-friendly or lawless nations, which is something he can get on board with.
He says, Id like to live in a place where drugs are legal since some of my hobbies include taking chemicals in my home.
However, theres one drawback to making your own water world.
Friedman explains, Its possible someone will do awful things on their seastead, but wed regulate it to some degree. You dont hear too much Lord of the Flies stuff happening on cruise ships, so we should be fine.

Sunday, 08/25/13
I woke up at 8:30am. The apartment was cool and the bed was nice and toasty. Besides, what is there to wake to — it is raining.
Well, it had to happen sometime I suppose. We have been very fortunate with the weather on this trip. The majority of our stay here has been blessed with wonderfully warm and sunny days. Should I complain about a day of rain? Yes, if it happens to be our last day in Paris I feel I can complain about it at least a little.
For breakfast, I make french toast with the remaining Challah bread — it was delicious! My DH takes a nap and I work on the blog before we leave for our last visit of the Louvre.
Yes, this is our third trip to the Louvre. We have one more wing to see — the Sully. With any luck, we will have time to see the top floors of the Denon and Richelieu wings too.
We need our umbrellas as we walk to the Metro. But once in the Metro, our Metro stop is right under the Louvre so rain is no longer a problem. We arrive at the Louvre around 2pm. Let's face it — the best place to be on a rainy day is in a museum. By the size of the crowd, I would say that every tourist in Paris would agree with that statement.
So, what can be so bad about being where everyone wants to be? The short list would include the long lines for just about everything. There was a long line to purchase tickets, to check your coats and bags, to see the Egyptian exhibits, the Roman exhibits, the eat in the cafeteria, and to use the ladies restroom. It seems a shame to me that of the four hours we were at the Louvre, we spend twenty percent of it waiting in line for something — this bugs me to no end! Still, we saw some fantastic art — so much of it that we didn't make it to the top floor of any wing. Oh well, maybe on our next trip to Paris…?
The Louvre closed at 6pm. By this time, the rain had stopped and turned to a light mist. The air was crisp and cool so we did not mind the 1+ mile walk to a our restaurant for our last French dinner at La Poule au Pot. This place was classic French, just perfect for our last night here!
By 8pm, we are pleasantly stuffed as we leave the restaurant. We are also tired! You wouldn't think that standing around all day would take a toll on you, but it does! Still, we took our time in locating a Metro stop as we took our final evening walk through this magical city! I know that sounds really, really cliché, but it is.
Quote of the day: "Honey, sneak me into the men's room?" — Anna

Before you go any further, know these stories will likely contain spoilers for Pulse: Genesis and Pulse: Retaliation. This is a supplemental series of journal entries between Pulse 2 and Pulse 3.
Fishing is amazing. Why haven't I done it before?
Jim and Magnus, both fishing since they were kids, marveled at how bountiful the lake was. All of us caught at least one fish. Jim got 3. Little lake trout. We ate them for dinner that night and they were amazing. Nights like this everything feels like it's going to be okay.
It was cold last night. Not unbearable, I think it is technically still summer, but I can feel really feel fall now. This week we're going to start cutting down trees to build cabins. The plan is two build two big enough to accommodate everyone, then from there make smaller ones for families if weather and resources allow.
I've read the book on cabin building three times now. The trick is good, straight logs and notching them correctly. I'll admit, I'm excited to start building. I need something to occupy my time. All my free time means I wallow in my memories. I think about the parasite a lot, the time I almost lost Chelsea. The time I did lose her. The time I lost Brian. Everything I've seen. Some days that makes me want to work harder to make this work. Others it makes me want to give up more than ever.
That's depressing. Really fucking depressing, I'm sorry. Let's turn this around.
The Lake will feel more like home once we have houses to live in, that's for certain. We've been scoping out and marking the trees we'll cut down. Magnus and Anthony are certain they can build them quickly, but I'm skeptical. If we're missing something or a tool breaks, we're screwed. It's not like we can drive down to Home Depot and grab replacements.
I wish Chelsea could've been here. I can't talk to anyone about it because no one really knew her. They say they're sorry and ask if I want to talk, but what would I say? Just thinking about her makes me tear up. She was my light. She made this whole thing worth trying. She grounded me.
Anyway, Beth uses the fish bones to make fish broth and that makes the soup a lot better. Never considered myself a seafood (or lakefood?) fan until now. Honestly, if there's one thing I've learned it's that in a survival situation, you don't look a gift horse in the mouth. Any food is food. Be grateful. Clean water? Perfect, stop complaining.
I feel bad for the people who stayed in cities hoping the government would save them. Obviously I don't personally know each person that makes up The Government, but I do know they were people. They probably thought they could save us all. They wanted to. The thing is, the parasite was too big for anyone to stop. I'm not sure anything could've been done differently.
I'll stop now. Need to get some rest. I imagine cutting down trees is going be hard.

It's Fukumura Mizuki's birthday soon! October 30, to be precise, is when Fukuchan turns 16. To help advertise, PonPon made us a little video to help show off Fuku-hime's birthday shirt. Many congratulations on reaching your quince, which only makes sense if you have Spanish speakers around you (and that's ironic since I'm not a Spanish speaker). And yes, my asides now have asides. Perhaps it's time for some Fuku-Fotos?
Our first look at Fuku-hime as a Morning Musume member
Renai Hunter … too suggestive?
She has a knack for these poses
I know someone out there will appreciate this look
As will someone appreciate the Fuku-tummy
She has a mole on her shoulder
I dunno … the "Apartment Wife" shoot seemed to turn people on
And these outfits always bring out the best in people
How about a zombie Fuku?
With the Kubrick Lolita glasses
More "Apartment Wife" … not surprising that UFA exploited this. What's surprising is that they haven't capitalized even more!
This outfit really played to her strengths
see what I mean?
