Reviewer: Tracey Lowe [rating:5] The British public have seen Simon Amstell's career progress nicely over the last few years. From his sarcastic interviewing style on Popworld, to offending D-list "celebrities" on Never Mind the Buzzcocks, to writing and performing in the superb Grandma's House. But stand-up is where he really shines, and this follow-up to his wonderful 'Do Nothing' show ...Read More »

Barry and Stuart: Show and Tell – Lowry Theatre, Salford
Reviewer: Tracey Lowe [rating:5] With magicians, a lot of their appeal lies in the mystique. Fantastic feats happen before your very eyes, and you go home thinking "how in the world did they do that?" Performers like Derren Brown create no illusions, beginning his act telling the audience that he possesses no psychic or magical powers whatsoever. Barry and Stuart ...Read More »
Stewart Francis : Outstanding in his Field – The Lowry, Salford
Reviewer: Dave Cunningham [Rating:4] Stewart Francis is a throwback to past generations of comedians who revealed little of their private lives but developed routines full of dynamite one-liners and jokes with actual punchlines.Francis certainly isn't an observational comic; he expresses puzzled admiration for those like Michael McIntyre ( ' I don't know how he does it. Oh yes : he ...Read More »
Miles Jupp: Fibber in the Heat – Harrogate Theatre
Reviewer: Guy Walker [Rating: 3] Miles Jupp will be known to many of the nation's children as 'Archie the Inventor' from the BBC children's television show Balamory, but he is also one of the country's up and coming stand-up comedians. As well appearing on Balamory he has also been seen in a host of other comedy shows such as Rev, ...Read More »
The Boy With Tape on his Face – Contact, Manchester
Reviewer: Clare Boswell [rating:4] Nominated for the Best Newcomer award at Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 2010 and heralded as Chortle's breakthrough act in 2011, it was no surprise that Contact Theatre's Space 1 was packed to the rafters on Tuesday evening, awaiting the arrival of 'The Boy With Tape on His Face'. Likeable local Lancashire lass Kate Mulgrew got the ...Read More »
Rory Bremner and Friends – The Lowry, Salford
Reviewer: Jo Beggs [rating:1.5] If you think having bland politicians is bad for the country, then spare a thought for poor old Rory Bremner. Bremner made his career in the late eighties and early nineties when we have some real characters in Westminster and the White House. Bremner himself admits that there's little to play with. He has a decent ...Read More »
Isy Suttie – The Lowry Theatre, Salford
Reviewer: Geoff Lovelock [Rating:3] While Salford swelters in the heat-wave, inside The Lowry's Studio Theatre it's even hotter – clammy, close and a bit stinky (someone near me took off their trainers – nice). And the air-con isn't working. Support act Chris Neill tells us it's because the system is linked to the Manchester Ship Canal and apparently the water ...Read More »

Danish Version of Mozilla Nears Completion
Monday August 30th, 1999
Henrik Lynggaard Hansen writes, "I don't know if this is news or even important, but I have an (almost) complete translation of Mozilla to Danish lying on my hard-drive. It will be mailed to Tao from the I18N group sometime tommorow so hopefully it will appear in the nightly builds real soon..."
Great news! Henrik also writes that he's heard news of a Bosnian translation also in the works. Does anyone know how many official translations Mozilla has at this point?

Yes, we Canucks do speak either english or french (some of us even speak both) but we do have certain idioms, and even spelling differences from the more common US or UK versions of the english language and definately have a very distinct French usage (vu tu un notre Hambourjoie) from France's (or Bengium's, or switzerland's) french.

You've made an interesting video, and now you need the views. It sure would be nice if your video went viral, right? Rewind! Wait just a minute because the best video advertising tips are found in how the video is produced. Everyone knows to share their videos on social media and various other outlets. There are some technical tips regarding the aftermath as well, but if you're not getting the views you want, there is a good chance you need to rewind and focus on the production of the video first.
Personalizing your videos is a very important step, and there are many ways to make your videos more personal. Many people skip over this piece of advice when making videos for Internet marketing purposes, and you don't want to make that mistake.
It's best if you script your videos so that there is more planning involved. You can better define your call to action, and you can ensure that everything you wanted to include in the video is in play. You can also read YouTube's video advertising help section here: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/2375498?hl=en
Consider the setting for your video, and you need to come up with an overall plan. Are you going to do the speaking on camera, off camera, or are you going to use someone else for this role? As you can see there are some decisions and plans to be made prior to shooting the video.

Only recently I discovered that my distant g..uncle Francis Cavers in Hawick had died from injuries sustained in an assault in 1874. His death certificate, which I'd checked previously, gave the cause of death as "inflammation of Brain, 8 days", which didn't strike me as anything unusual. But it was only through a search in the online Scotsman newspaper archive that I discovered the fuller story:
The Scotsman; 1874 July 7. JEDBURGH-JURY COURT-At a Jury Court at Jedburgh yesterday, Walter Murray, labourer, Wilton-dean, was charged with assaulting Francis Cavers, gardener, Wilton Lodge, by knocking him down with his fist, and attempting to strangle him. From the evidence it appeared that each party had given the other the lie before the assault took place. Cavers had been so seriously maltreated that congestion of the brain set in, and he died three weeks after the assault. The jury, by a majority, found the charge proven, but considering that there might have been provocation, recommended the prisoner to the leniency of the Court. The Sheriff sentenced Murray to two months' imprisonment.
Sometime I plan to check local newspapers in Hawick, to see if they say any more about the incident and subsequent death and trial. I'd also like to check the trial papers, if they survive, but I'm not sure if they'd be in Edinburgh, or in Jedburgh. The death must have had a big impact on the family at the time. Francis Cavers was married, with six children, and also had many surviving brothers and sisters, nephews and nieces. He was the oldest son of Thomas Cavers and Helen Scott, and a great-grandson of James Cavers and Isabella Coltherd.

Alright, so I am at a mall today waiting for my wife and sister in law to be done shopping at H&M. There I am minding my own business munching on an Auntie Anne's Pretzel and sipping on some lemonade – when all of a suddenly this blond lady walks up to me, smiles and says…"is your name Topher?"
What the heck…how do people know who I am out here?! I said yes with a look on my face of what I am sure was – are you going to kill me…and she said I have heard so much about you. Innocently I said…ummm from who? I work with your mother in law, she said.
OHHHHHHHHHH! Apparently my mom in law talks about me a lot has lots of pictures of us up at the hospital she works at. Kind of freaked me out though…I'm not going to lie.

Blocking out a map (or blocking in, as they say elsewhere) is one of the best parts of level design, because you get to create new space, new rooms, new places, entirely new areas and plan the basic layout of the map, all the while pondering how the player will move through this new world later on.
Here I'm doing the next indoor part of e1m1rq, the Slipgate Labs. I'm chiefly trying to connect the two entrances that I left open at the end of the last stage – a main entrance (marked in the plan) and a secondary entrance at the helipad, from which the player can explore an additional new area containing a couple maintenance type rooms – warehouse, generator, pumps, server farm – before arriving at the main entrance area just the same.
From there on, I go around in a sort of circle via the bridge to the nailgun room and the slime pool that were transplanted from the original map (a sort of signature area, to me) and into an eventual very different interpretation of the original's spiral ramp room. I guess I'll add another outdoor area off to the side because I've been daydreaming about a certain kind of setpiece for… years now, actually. 🙂 I'm not telling what it is yet.
"Excavation". Yeah, you read right. That's the part where it goes off on a tangent again, reinterpreting the original more than recreating it. But that's half the fun. I have that part largely planned in my mind ever since pineapple and me did that chainmap. I'll probably build that room in an external map and slot it in later.
Needless to say, there will be tons of useless detail piled on once the layout is finished. But for now, a few brushes arranged in the room, just like staking your claim, is actually the most flexible approach. The entire new area could actually be tested ingame very quickly – it fits easily into the big box I use to seal the map, which is peeled back and thus not visible in the screenshot, but I could compile and run around in this in a matter of minutes. Sort of a sandbox approach to mapping.

Here's a tip to identify misleading statements in the media or by politicians or any protagonists, especially by those suggesting there is a big impact of something they don't agree with.
If someone tells you of a sizable increase and give a single figure for the amount of that increase and no more – they are misleading you.
Why would this be ?
To have an increase or decrease in anything you you must start with something then measure the change. If you know this figure then you have a chance to understand the rate of increase but without this starting figure you have no real idea.
If I said to you that unemployment increase by 100,000 people this would be rather frighting unless you realised I was Talking about the US then with the population of 300Million you would actually be talking about 0.3% of the population.
Unless someone gives you the total amount on which a change has occurred it is almost useless.
News Paper headlines love this for example. "NSW Health minister Jillian Skinner said the carbon tax would add up to $50 million per year to costs, as high electricity prices impacted on hospital bottom lines."– but how much do they normally spend ? How many Hospitals are there ? None of this was provided in that news report.

Women Of Hillside I want to encourage you today…
You are on purpose. You are completely intentional, thought out, and strategically planned. Psalm 139:13 reads "For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb." How incredible a thought…that God designed us, each our own unique pattern. The metaphor of knitting is beautiful as (knitters would know) this task takes time, precision and every stitch matters and is required in the final product.
Many things in life can distract us and confuse us about who we are, where we want to be. In those moments be encouraged that regardless of place in life, age or stage we are God's purposed creation. We always have an identity in Christ, even in the moments we are at conflict with our identity in the world.
We may not always feel like we are where we are supposed to be. We may even feel that we are failing, falling and that we are unable to grasp who we really are.
I want to encourage you that when you came to Christ 2 Corinthians 5:17 says you became a new creation in Christ, the new has come, and the old passed away
I want you to know today ladies that it does not matter who we want to be, but only who we are. We are the mighty, blessed, chosen and purposed daughters of Christ, and that should be enough for us…at any hour, at any moment.
Blessings To You This Day!

- Trump promises U.S. friends 'flexibility' as trade war warnings rise
- Information Minister Melhem Riachy: Zahle is currently fighting a battle for all Lebanon and we decided to face it by either winning or losing in the elections
State Minister for Anti-Corruption Affairs, Nicolas Tueni, visited President Michel Aoun and informed him of the recent meetings and contacts he held with the Iraqi officials, in order to resolve the case of Lebanese businessmen and investors' owing money to Iraq, a statement by Tueni's office said on Thursday.
Talks also touched on the Lebanese funds seized at Erbils' central bank.
The coordinator of Frere Schools, brother Emile Akiki, also visited Baabda Palace on Thursday with an accompanying delegation.
President Aoun delivered a word in which he expressed satisfaction at the fact that many Frere school graduates were currently serving Lebanon in various positions.
Aoun also highlighted the importance of having teachers maintain balance between their profession and their mission.
He stressed as well the paramount importance of nurturing a national culture among Lebanese youth, and to avoid the scene the had been witnessed in previous elections.
Separately, Aoun welcomed Greek Ambassador to Lebanon Theodore Basas who paid him a farewell visit marking the end of his diplomatic career in Beirut and his appointment as Director of the Greek Foreign Minister's Office.

Barcelona Books
Your flight is booked, your AirBNB is reserved, your suitcase is packed and your departure is imminent. You're on your way to Barcelona, but no vacation would be complete without some reading material. What better way to discover a city, than via a good book.
This book caused an outcry when it was published as Catalan author Ruiz Zafon made the decision to write in Spanish rather than his native Catalan. A book about a book - this story starts in a labyrinthine library of obscure and forgotten titles long out of print. To this library, a man brings his 10-year-old son Daniel one cold morning in 1945. Daniel is allowed to choose one book from the shelves and pulls out 'La Sombra Del Viento' by Julian Carax. But as he grows up, several people seem inordinately interested in his find.
A masterful eipc of love, war, treason, plague, famine, witchcraft, anti-Semitism and the Inquisition. 14th-century Spain, the medieval city of Barcelona is enjoying a golden age of prosperity. Its humblest inhabitants are building, stone by stone, a magnificent church to overlook their harbour. This is the Cathedral of the Sea: a church to be built for the people by the people. In its shadow, Arnau, a young serf on the run from his feudal lord, struggles to earn his freedom. After famine, plague and thwarted love, Arnau's fortunes begin to turn when King Pedro makes him a baron as a reward for his courage in battle. But he is also forced to marry Eleonor, a ward of the King whom he does not love. His newfound status excites jealousy from his friends who plot his downfall with devastating consequences. Arnau's journey from slave to nobleman is the story of a struggle between good and evil that will turn Church against State and brother against brother ...
It is the summer of 1936, the early months of the agonising civil war that engulfs Spain and shakes the rest of the world. In a prison in the pilgrim city of Santiago de Compostela, an artist sketches the famous porch of the cathedral, the Portico da Gloria. He uses a carpenter's pencil. But instead of reproducing the sculptured faces of the prophets and elders, he draws the faces of his fellow Republican prisoners. Many years later in post-Franco Spain, a survivor of that period, Doctor Daniel da Barca, returns from exile to his native Galicia, and the threads of past memories begin to be woven together. This poetic and moving novel conveys the horror and savagery of the tragedy that divided Spain, and the experiences of the men and women who lived through it. Yet in the process, it also relates one of the most beautiful love stories imaginable.

2nd day on night shift
My routines are now irregular. I don't get to meet, talk, and share jokes or bullying with my office mates (special mention si matampuhing Glaiza kasi nagtext sya na puro na lang shynne, shynne, shynne). I don't get to catch most of my friends online. I don't get to ride with my friends in the boat and jeepney as we journey to Davao City. I don't enjoy a cup of coffee without the short conversations with my fellow coffee addicts. I don't get to have that long long long lunch conversation. I don't get to chat with Papa, Mama and Clinton during the night on what happened with my day.
I miss my everyday peeps

Moved, finally!
Well, we're moved. Officially residents of Kansas now. God gave us amazing weather for the move - only about 70 degrees. and no rain. He answers prayers! We love the new house. It has lots of windows and they've been open every day since we've been there. I think my mother and I will hang pictures tonight. It hardly feels like home till your stuff is on the walls. Soon it shall be clean! Right now I'm just tired. That's how moving goes.

The Mexican
By Jack London
NOBODY knew his history-- they of the Junta least of all. He was their "little mystery," their "big patriot," and in his way he worked as hard for the coming Mexican Revolution as did they. They were tardy in recognizing this, for not one of the Junta liked him. The day he first drifted into their crowded, busy rooms, they all suspected him of being a spy--one of the bought tools of the Diaz secret service. Too many of the comrades were in civil an military prisons scattered over the United States, and others of them, in irons, were even then being taken across the border to be lined up against adobe walls and shot.
At the first sight the boy did not impress them favorably. Boy he was, not more than eighteen and not over large for his years. He announced that he was Felipe Rivera, and that it was his wish to work for the Revolution. That was all--not a wasted word, no further explanation. He stood waiting. There was no smile on his lips, no geniality in his eyes. Big dashing Paulino Vera felt an inward shudder. Here was something forbidding, terrible, inscrutable. There was something venomous and snakelike in the boy's black eyes. They burned like cold fire, as with a vast, concentrated bitterness. He flashed them from the faces of the conspirators to the typewriter which little Mrs. Sethby was industriously operating. His eyes rested on hers but an instant--she had chanced to look up--and she, too, sensed the nameless something that made her pause. She was compelled to read back in order to regain the swing of the letter she was writing.Paulino Vera looked questioningly at Arrellano and Ramos, and questioningly they looked back and to each other. The indecision of doubt brooded in their eyes. This slender boy was the Unknown, vested with all the menace of the Unknown. He was unrecognizable, something quite beyond the ken of honest, ordinary revolutionists whose fiercest hatred for Diaz and his tyranny after all was only that of honest and ordinary patriots. Here was something else, they knew not what. But Vera, always the most impulsive, the quickest to act, stepped into the breach."Very well," he said coldly. "You say you want to work for the Revolution. Take off your coat. Hang it over there. I will show you, come--where are the buckets and cloths. The floor is dirty. You will begin by scrubbing it, and by scrubbing the floors of the other rooms. The spittoons need to be cleaned. Then there are the windows."
"Is it for the Revolution?" the boy asked.
"It is for the Revolution," Vera answered.
Rivera looked cold suspicion at all of them, then proceeded to take off his coat."It is well," he said.
And nothing more. Day after day he came to his work--sweeping, scrubbing, cleaning. He emptied the ashes from the stoves, brought up the coal and kindling, and lighted the fires before the most energetic one of them was at his desk."Can I sleep here?" he asked once.
Text, Unit Three, S2A, New Century English
Sunny's Workshop
Ah, ha! So that was it--the hand of Diaz showing through! To sleep in the rooms of the Junta meant access to their secrets, to the lists of names, to the addresses of comrades down on Mexican soil. The request was denied, and Rivera never spoke of it again. He slept they knew not where, and ate they knew not where nor how. Once, Arrellano offered him a couple of dollars. Rivera declined the money with a shake of the head. When Vera joined in and tried to press it upon him, he said:"I am working for the Revolution."
It takes money to raise a modern revolution. and always the Junta was pressed. The members starved and toiled, and the longest day was none too long, and yet there were times when it appeared as if the Revolution stood or fell on no more than the matter of a few dollars. Once, the first time, when the rent of the house was two months behind and the landlord was threatening dispossession, it was Felipe Rivera, the scrub-boy in the poor, cheap clothes, worn and threadbare, who laid sixty dollars in gold on May Sethby's desk. There were other times. Three hundred letters, clicked out on the busy typewriters (appeals for assistance, for sanctions from the organized labor groups, requests for square news deals to the editors of newspapers, protests against the high-handed treatment of revolutionists by the United States courts), lay unmailed, awaiting postage. Vera's watch had disappeared--the old-fashioned gold repeater that had been his father's. Likewise had gone the plain gold band from May Setbby's third finger. Things were desperate. Ramos and Arrellano pulled their long mustaches in despair. The letters must go off, and the Post Office allowed no credit to purchasers of stamps. Then it was that Rivera put on his hat and went out. When he came back he laid a thousand two-cent stamps on May Sethby's desk.
"I wonder if it is the cursed gold of Diaz?" said Vera to the comrades.They elevated their brows and could not decide. And Felipe Rivera, the scrubber for the Revolution, continued, as occasion arose, to lay down gold and silver for the Junta's use.
And still they could not bring themselves to like him. They did not know him. His ways were not theirs. He gave no confidences. He repelled all probing. Youth that he was, they could never nerve themselves to dare to question him."A great and lonely spirit, perhaps, I do not know, I do not know," Arrellano said helplessly.
"He is not human," said Ramos.
"His soul has been seared," said May Sethby. "Light and laughter have been burned out of him. He is like one dead, and yet he is fearfully alive.""He has been through hell," said Vera. "No man could look like that who has not been through hell--and he is only a boy."
Yet they could not like him. He never talked, never inquired, never suggested. He would stand listening, expressionless, a thing dead, save for his eyes, coldly burning, while their talk of the Revolution ran high and warm. From face to face and speaker to speaker his eyes would turn, boring like gimlets of incandescent ice, disconcerting and perturbing.

"He is no spy," Vera confided to May Sethby. "He is a patriot--mark me, the greatest patriot of us all. I know it, I feel it, here in my heart and head I feel it. But him I know not at all."
"He has a bad temper," said May Sethby.
"I know," said Vera, with a shudder. "He has looked at me with those eyes of his. They do not love; they threaten; they are savage as a wild tiger's. I know, if I should prove unfaithful to the Cause, that he would kill me. He has no heart. He is pitiless as steel, keen and cold as frost. He is like moonshine in a winter night when a man freezes to death on some lonely mountain top. I am not afraid of Diaz and all his killers; but this boy, of him am I afraid. I tell you true. I am afraid. He is the breath of death."
Yet Vera it was who persuaded the others to give the first trust to Rivera. The line of communication between Los Angeles and Lower California had broken down. Three of the comrades had dug their own graves and been shot into them. Two more were United States prisoners in Los Angeles. Juan Alvarado, the Federal commander, was a monster. All their plans did he checkmate. They could no longer gain access to the active revolutionists, and the incipient ones, in Lower California.
Young Rivera was given his instructions and dispatched south. When he returned, the line of communication was reestablished, and Juan Alvarado was dead. He had been found in bed, a knife hilt-deep in his breast. This had exceeded Rivera's instructions, but they of the Junta knew the times of his movements. They did not ask him. He said nothing. But they looked at one another and conjectured."I have told you," said Vera. "Diaz has more to fear from this youth than from any man. He is implacable. He is the hand of God."
The bad temper, mentioned by May Sethby, and sensed by them all, was evidenced by physical proofs. Now he appeared with a cut lip, a blackened cheek, or a swollen ear. It was patent that he brawled, somewhere in that outside world where he ate and slept, gained money, and moved in ways unknown to them. As the time passed, he had come to set type for the little revolutionary sheet they published weekly. There were occasions when he was unable to set type, when his knuckles were bruised and battered, when his thumbs were injured and helpless, when one arm or the other hung wearily at his side while his face was drawn with unspoken pain.
"A wastrel," said Arrellano.
"A frequenter of low places," said Ramos.
"But where does he get the money?" Vera demanded. "Only to-day, just now, have I learned that he paid the bill for white paper--one hundred and forty dollars.""There are his absences," said May Sethby. "He never explains them.""We should set a spy upon him," Ramos propounded.
"I should not care to be that spy," said Vera. "I fear you would never see me again, save to bury me. He has a terrible passion. Not even God would he permit to stand between him and the way of his passion."

"I feel like a child before him," Ramos confessed.
"To me he is power--he is the primitive, the wild wolf, the striking rattlesnake, the stinging centipede," said Arrellano.
"He is the Revolution incarnate," said Vera. "He is the flame and the spirit of it, the insatiable cry for vengeance that makes no cry but that slays noiselessly. He is a destroying angel in moving through the still watches of the night.""I could weep over him," said May Sethby. "He knows nobody. He hates all people. Us he tolerates, for we are the way of his desire. He is alone. . . . lonely." Her voice broke in a half sob and there was dimness in her eyes.
Rivera's ways and times were truly mysterious. There were periods when they did not see him for a week at a time. Once, he was away a month. These occasions were always capped by his return, when, without advertisement or speech, he laid gold coins on May Sethby's desk. Again, for days and weeks, he spent all his time with the Junta. And yet again, for irregular periods, he would disappear through the heart of each day, from early morning until late afternoon. At such times he came early and remained late. Arrellano had found him at midnight, setting type with fresh swollen knuckles, or mayhap it was his lip, new-split, that still bled.II
The time of the crisis approached. Whether or not the Revolution would be depended upon the Junta, and the Junta was hard-pressed. The need for money was greater than ever before, while money was harder to get. Patriots had given their last cent and now could give no more. Section gang laborers-fugitive peons from Mexico--were contributing half their scanty wages. But more than that was needed. The heart-breaking, conspiring, undermining toil of years approached fruition. The time was ripe. The Revolution hung on the balance. One shove more, one last heroic effort, and it would tremble across the scales to victory. They knew their Mexico. Once started, the Revolution would take care of itself. The whole Diaz machine would go down like a house of cards. The border was ready to rise. One Yankee, with a hundred I.W.W. men, waited the word to cross over the border and begin the conquest of Lower California. But he needed guns. And clear across to the Atlantic, the Junta in touch with them all and all of them needing guns, mere adventurers, soldiers of fortune, bandits, disgruntled American union men, socialists, anarchists, rough-necks, Mexican exiles, peons escaped from bondage, whipped miners from the bull-pens of Coeur d'Alene and Colorado who desired only the more vindictively to fight--all the flotsam and jetsam of wild spirits from the madly complicated modern world. And it was guns and ammunition, ammunition and guns--the unceasing and eternal cry.
Fling this heterogeneous, bankrupt, vindictive mass across the border, and the Revolution was on. The custom house, the northern ports of entry, would be captured. Diaz could not resist. He dared not throw the weight of his armies against them, for he must hold the south. And through the south the flame would spread despite. The people would rise. The defenses of city after city would crumple up. State after state would totter down. And at last, from every side, the
Text, Unit Three, S2A, New Century English
Sunny's Workshop
victorious armies of the Revolution would close in on the City of Mexico itself, Diaz's last stronghold.
But the money. They had the men, impatient and urgent, who would use the guns. They knew the traders who would sell and deliver the guns. But to culture the Revolution thus far had exhausted the Junta. The last dollar had been spent, the last resource and the last starving patriot milked dry, and the great adventure still trembled on the scales. Guns and ammunition! The ragged battalions must be armed. But how? Ramos lamented his confiscated estates. Arrellano wailed the spendthriftness of his youth. May Sethby wondered if it would have been different had they of the Junta been more economical in the past.
"To think that the freedom of Mexico should stand or fall on a few paltry thousands of dollars," said Paulino Vera.
Despair was in all their faces. Jose Amarillo, their last hope, a recent convert, who had promised money, had been apprehended at his hacienda in Chihuahua and shot against his own stable wall. The news had just come through.
Rivera, on his knees, scrubbing, looked up, with suspended brush, his bare arms flecked with soapy, dirty water.
"Will five thousand do it?" he asked.
They looked their amazement. Vera nodded and swallowed. He could not speak, but he was on the instant invested with a vast faith.
"Order the guns," Rivera said, and thereupon was guilty of the longest flow of words they had ever heard him utter. "The time is short. In three weeks I shall bring you the five thousand. It is well. The weather will be warmer for those who fight. Also, it is the best I can do."
Vera fought his faith. It was incredible. Too many fond hopes had been shattered since he had begun to play the revolution game. He believed this threadbare scrubber of the Revolution, and yet he dared not believe.
"You are crazy," he said.
"In three weeks," said Rivera. "Order the guns."
He got up, rolled down his sleeves, and put on his coat.
"Order the guns," he said.
"I am going now."
After hurrying and scurrying, much telephoning and bad language, a night session was held in Kelly's office. Kelly was rushed with business; also, he was unlucky. He had brought Danny Ward out from New York, arranged the fight for him with Billy Carthey, the date was three weeks away, and for two days now, carefully concealed from the sporting writers, Carthey had been lying up, badly injured. There was no one to take his place. Kelly had been burning the wires East to every eligible lightweight, but they were tied up with dates and contracts. And now hope had revived, though faintly.
"You've got a hell of a nerve," Kelly addressed Rivera, after one look, as soon as they got together.

Hate that was malignant was in Rivera's eyes, but his face remained impassive."I can lick Ward," was all he said.
"How do you know? Ever see him fight?"
Rivera shook his head.
"He can beat you up with one hand and both eyes closed."
Rivera shrugged his shoulders.
"Haven't you got anything to say?" the fight promoter snarled.
"I can lick him."
"Who'd you ever fight, anyway!" Michael Kelly demanded. Michael was the promotor's brother, and ran the Yellowstone pool rooms where he made goodly sums on the fight game.
Rivera favored him with a bitter, unanswering stare.
The promoter's secretary, a distinctively sporty young man, sneered audibly."Well, you know Roberts," Kelly broke the hostile silence. "He ought to be here. I've sent for him. Sit down and wait, though f rom the looks of you, you haven't got a chance. I can't throw the public down with a bum fight. Ringside seats are selling at fifteen dollars, you know that."
When Roberts arrived, it was patent that he was mildly drunk. He was a tall, lean, slack-jointed individual, and his walk, like his talk, was a smooth and languid drawl.
Kelly went straight to the point.
"Look here, Roberts, you've been bragging you discovered this little Mexican. You know Carthey's broke his arm. Well, this little yellow streak has the gall to blow in to-day and say he'll take Carthey's place. What about it?"
"It's all right, Kelly," came the slow response. "He can put up a fight.""I suppose you'll be sayin' next that he can lick Ward," Kelly snapped.Roberts considered judicially.
"No, I won't say that. Ward's a top-notcher and a ring general. But he can't hashhouse Rivera in short order. I know Rivera. Nobody can get his goat. He ain't got a goat that I could ever discover. And he's a two-handed fighter. He can throw in the sleep-makers from any position."
"Never mind that. What kind of a show can he put up? You've been conditioning and training fighters all your life. I take off my hat to your judgment. Can he give the public a run for its money?"
"He sure can, and he'll worry Ward a mighty heap on top of it. You don't know that boy. I do. I discovered him. He ain't got a goat. He's a devil. He's a wizzy-wooz if anybody should ask you. He'll make Ward sit up with a show of local talent that'll make the rest of you sit up. I won't say he'll lick Ward, but he'll put up such a show that you'll all know he's a comer."
"All right." Kelly turned to his secretary. "Ring up Ward. I warned him to show up if I thought it worth while. He's right across at the Yellowstone, throwin' chests and doing the popular."
Text, Unit Three, S2A, New Century English

Kelly turned back to the conditioner. "Have a drink?"
Roberts sipped his highball and unburdened himself.
"Never told you how I discovered the little cuss. It was a couple of years ago he showed up out at the quarters. I was getting Prayne ready for his fight with Delaney. Prayne's wicked. He ain't got a tickle of mercy in his make-up. I chopped up his pardner's something cruel, and I couldn't find a willing boy that'd work with him. I'd noticed this little starved Mexican kid hanging around, and I was desperate. So I grabbed him, shoved on the gloves and put him in. He was tougher'n rawhide, but weak. And he didn't know the first letter in the alphabet of boxing. Prayne chopped him to ribbons. But he hung on for two sickening rounds, when he fainted. Starvation, that was all. Battered! You couldn't have recognized him. I gave him half a dollar and a square meal. You oughta seen him wolf it down. He hadn't had the end of a bite for a couple of days. That's the end of him, thinks I. But next day he showed up, stiff an' sore, ready for another half and a square meal. And he done better as time went by. Just a born fighter, and tough beyond belief. He hasn't a heart. He's a piece of ice. And he never talked eleven words in a string since I know him. He saws wood and does his work.""I've seen 'm," the secretary said. "He's worked a lot for you."
"All the big little fellows has tried out on him," Roberts answered. "And he's learned from 'em. I've seen some of them he could lick. But his heart wasn't in it. I reckoned he never liked the game. He seemed to act that way."
"He's been fighting some before the little clubs the last few months," Kelly said."Sure. But I don't know what struck 'm. All of a sudden his heart got into it. He just went out like a streak and cleaned up all the little local fellows. Seemed to want the money, and he's won a bit, though his clothes don't look it. He's peculiar. Nobody knows his business. Nobody knows how he spends his time. Even when he's on the job, he plumb up and disappears most of each day soon as his work is done. Sometimes he just blows away for weeks at a time. But he don't take advice. There's a fortune in it for the fellow that gets the job of managin' him, only he won't consider it. And you watch him hold out for the cash money when you get down to terms."
It was at this stage that Danny Ward arrived. Quite a party it was. His manager and trainer were with him, and he breezed in like a gusty draught of geniality, good-nature, and all-conqueringness. Greetings flew about, a joke here, a retort there, a smile or a laugh for everybody. Yet it was his way, and only partly sincere. He was a good actor, and he had found geniality a most valuable asset in the game of getting on in the world. But down underneath he was the deliberate, cold-blooded fighter and business man. The rest was a mask. Those who knew him or trafficked with him said that when it came to brass tacks he was Danny-on-the-Spot. He was invariably present at all business discussions, and it was urged by some that his manager was a blind whose only function was to serve as Danny's mouth-piece.Rivera's way was different. Indian blood, as well as Spanish, was in his veins, and he sat back in a corner, silent, immobile, only his black eyes passing from face to face and noting everything.

"So that's the guy," Danny said, running an appraising eye over his proposed antagonist. "How de do, old chap."
Rivera's eyes burned venomously, but he made no sign of acknowledgment. He disliked all Gringos, but this Gringo he hated with an immediacy that was unusual even in him.
"Gawd!" Danny protested facetiously to the promoter. "You ain't expectin' me to fight a deef mute." When the laughter subsided, he made another hit. "Los Angeles must be on the dink when this is the best you can scare up. What kindergarten did you get 'm from?"
"He's a good little boy, Danny, take it from me," Roberts defended. "Not as easy as he looks."
"And half the house is sold already," Kelly pleaded. "You'll have to take 'm on, Danny. It is the best we can do."
Danny ran another careless and unflattering glance over Rivera and sighed. "I gotta be easy with 'm, I guess. If only he don't blow up."
Roberts snorted.
"You gotta be careful," Danny's manager warned. "No taking chances with a dub that's likely to sneak a lucky one across."
"Oh, I'll be careful all right, all right," Danny smiled. "I'll get in at the start an' nurse 'im along for the dear public's sake. What d' ye say to fifteen rounds, Kelly--an' then the hay for him?"
"That'll do," was the answer. "As long as you make it realistic."
"Then let's get down to biz." Danny paused and calculated. "Of course, sixty-five per cent of the gate receipts, same as with Carthey. But the split'll be different. Eighty will just about suit me." And to his manager, "That right?"The manager nodded.
"Here, you, did you get that?" Kelly asked Rivera.
Rivera shook his head.
"Well, it is this way," Kelly exposited. "The purse'll be sixty-five per cent of the gate receipts. You're a dub, and an unknown. You and Danny split, twenty per cent goin' to you, an' eighty to Danny. That's fair, isn't it, Roberts?""Very fair, Rivera," Roberts agreed.
"You see, you ain't got a reputation yet."
"What will sixty-five per cent of the gate receipts be?" Rivera demanded."Oh, maybe five thousand, maybe as high as eight thousand," Danny broke in to explain. "Something like that. Your share'll come to something like a thousand or sixteen hundred. Pretty good for takin' a licking from a guy with my reputation. What d' ye say?"
Then Rivera took their breaths away. "Winner takes all," he said with finality.A dead silence prevailed.
"It's like candy from a baby," Danny's manager proclaimed.
Danny shook his head.
Text, Unit Three, S2A, New Century English

"I've been in the game too long," he explained.
"I'm not casting reflections on the referee, or the present company. I'm not sayin' nothing about book-makers an' frame-ups that sometimes happen. But what I do say is that it's poor business for a fighter like me. I play safe. There's no tellin'. Mebbe I break my arm, eh? Or some guy slips me a bunch of dope?" He shook his head solemnly. "Win or lose, eighty is my split. What d' ye say, Mexican?"Rivera shook his head.
Danny exploded. He was getting down to brass tacks now.
"Why, you dirty little greaser! I've a mind to knock your block off right now."Roberts drawled his body to interposition between hostilities.
"Winner takes all," Rivera repeated sullenly.
"Why do you stand out that way?" Danny asked.
"I can lick you," was the straight answer.
Danny half started to take off his coat. But, as his manager knew, it was a grand stand play. The coat did not come off, and Danny allowed himself to be placated by the group. Everybody sympathized with him. Rivera stood alone."Look here, you little fool," Kelly took up the argument. "You're nobody. We know what you ve been doing the last few months--putting away little local fighters. But Danny is class. His next fight after this will be for the championship. And you're unknown. Nobody ever heard of you out of Los Angeles.""They will," Rivera answered with a shrug, "after this fight."
"You think for a second you can lick me?" Danny blurted in.
Rivera nodded.
"Oh, come; listen to reason," Kelly pleaded. "Think of the advertising.""I want the money," was Rivera's answer.
"You couldn't win from me in a thousand years," Danny assured him."Then what are you holdin' out for?" Rivera countered. "If the money's that easy, why don't you go after it?"
"I will, so help me!" Danny cried with abrupt conviction. "I'Il beat you to death in the ring, my boy--you monkeyin' with me this way. Make out the articles, Kelly. Winner take all. Play it up in the sportin' columns. Tell 'em it's a grudge fight. I'll show this fresh kid a few."
Kelly's secretary had begun to write, when Danny interrupted.
"Hold on!" He turned to Rivera.
"Ringside," came the answer.
"Not on your life, Fresh Kid. If winner takes all, we weigh in at ten A.M.""And winner takes all?" Rivera queried.
Danny nodded. That settled it. He would enter the ring in his full ripeness of strength.
"Weigh in at ten," Rivera said.
The secretary's pen went on scratching.

"It means five pounds," Roberts complained to Rivera.
"You've given too much away. You've thrown the fight right there. Danny'll lick you sure. He'll be as strong as a bull. You're a fool. You ain't got the chance of a dewdrop in hell."
Rivera's answer was a calculated look of hatred. Even this Gringo he despised, and him had he found the whitest Gringo of them all.
Barely noticed was Rivera as he entered the ring. Only a very slight and very scattering ripple of half-hearted hand-clapping greeted him. The house did not believe in him. He was the lamb led to slaughter at the hands of the great Danny. Besides, the house was disappointed. It had expected a rushing battle between Danny Ward and Billy Carthey, and here it must put up with this poor little tyro. Still further, it had manifested its disapproval of the change by betting two, and even three, to one on Danny. And where a betting audience's money is, there is its heart.
The Mexican boy sat down in his corner and waited. The slow minutes lagged by. Danny was making him wait. It was an old trick, but ever it worked on the young, new fighters. They grew frightened, sitting thus and facing their own apprehensions and a callous, tobacco-smoking audience. But for once the trick failed. Roberts was right. Rivera had no goat. He, who was more delicately coordinated, more finely nerved and strung than any of them, had no nerves of this sort. The atmosphere of foredoomed defeat in his own corner had no effect on him. His handlers were Gringos and strangers. Also they were scrubs--the dirty driftage of the fight game, without honor, without efficiency. And they were chilled, as well, with certitude that theirs was the losing corner."Now you gotta be careful," Spider Hagerty warned him. Spider was his chief second. "Make it last as long as you can--them's my instructions from Kelly. If you don't, the papers'll call it another bum fight and give the game a bigger black eye in Los Angeles."
All of which was not encouraging. But Rivera took no notice. He despised prize fighting. It was the hated game of the hated Gringo. He had taken up with it, as a chopping block for others in the training quarters, solely because he was starving. The fact that he was marvelously made for it had meant nothing. He hated it. Not until he had come in to the Junta, had he fought for money, and he had found the money easy. Not first among the sons of men had he been to find himself successful at a despised vocation.
He did not analyze. He merely knew that he must win this fight. There could be no other outcome. For behind him, nerving him to this belief, were profounder forces than any the crowded house dreamed. Danny Ward fought for money, and for the easy ways of life that money would bring. But the things Rivera fought for burned in his brain--blazing and terrible visions, that, with eyes wide open, sitting lonely in the corner of the ring and waiting for his tricky antagonist, he saw as clearly as he had lived them.

Sausage, Pepper and Onion Sandwich
July 25, 2017 12:49 PM
First, bake fresh, sweet Italian sausage at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, which will make it firm on the outside, but still retain the natural juices and flavors inside.
Next, slice fresh green peppers and onions, add a little seasoning and fry them on the grill until they are halfway cooked. Add the sausage on the grill and cook until it gets brown and done on the inside, blending all the natural flavors.
When all is cooked, fill an Italian roll from Nino's Bakery with all the ingredients and serve it with pleasure.

Low levels of LDL and triglycerides can work wonders with your wellness, however low levels do not work in the same way with HDL cholesterol. HDL cholesterol levels constantly should be raised in order to acquire an optimum benefit for your health. HDL cholesterol is always called as "good cholesterol" for this reason enhancing its level exercises to your advantage.
Types of cholesterol and their functionalities
These terms LDL, HDL, triglycerides, 'good' cholesterol, etc., seem like some code words from a secret handbook. In fact, these words hold value for everyone who wishes to lead a healthy and delighted way of living. Cholesterol is small bits of lipids and proteins circulating in your blood. When you fear your cholesterol levels have enhanced your physician runs some blood tests to determine your cholesterol variety. These test grade into 4 categories - 1. Your overall cholesterol levels 2. HDL (high density lipoprotein) cholesterol levels 3. LDL (low density lipoprotein) cholesterol levels and 4. Triglycerides levels. Lipoproteins drifting in the blood are categorized in three kinds HDL (the 'great' cholesterol), LDL and triglycerides (the 'bad' cholesterol).
Cholesterol is manufactured from the liver and is also gotten through nutritional consumption. Most of the cholesterol is used for numerous essential functions such as vitamin and hormone manufacturing, body cells enhancement, etc. The excess which gathers through unhealthy diet types plaques on the walls of the arteries obstructing the natural blood stream and triggering coronary conditions. This is where the remarkable HDL cholesterol or the 'good' cholesterol comes to the rescue. HDL cleanses the excess build-up of cholesterol from the walls of the arteries and brings it back to the liver for reprocessing.
Different factors contributing towards low levels of HDL cholesterol
Now the concern might arise, "How do you keep your HDL cholesterol levels well maintained?" Before that you should understand, what are the ideal HDL cholesterol requirement levels set by the Health Organizations? The most preferable level should be more than 60 mg/dL, if it is in between 40 mg/dL and 60 mg/dL it's acceptable however if the level goes below 40 mg/dL it could raise the risk of coronary artery disease. Above 60 mg/dL in fact can safeguard and offer you defense against cardio vascular diseases. Due to high levels of oestrogen the HDL levels for a female are higher than that for a man.
There are numerous factors which contribute towards reduction of HDL cholesterol levels. A few of them are extensive smoking cigarettes, weight problems or being overweight, high blood sugar levels or diabetic issues, sedentary way of living, absence of exercising, genetic, high levels of triglycerides, unhealthy diet, age, specific kinds of medicines, and so on.

Confuse - Indignation [LP] (1997)
Download via Megaupload
This is THE D-beat chaos noise raw punk album. Confuse's "Indignation", originally released in 1984 on cassette, set the standard for the D-beat, noise punk, and crust bands of today. Hailing from Japan, which seems to be the center of everything awesome in the world, Confuse decimates everything in its path. There are not enough words for me to describe the power of this record. Just listen and distort 'til deafness.
More pics after the break.

Rode to Fort Lauderdale, changed oil (mileage 21970 km) and it was freaking hot. Wanted to meet a friend that lives here, but we didn't hear back from him, so we didn't. Nice hotel at the Marriot Courtyard, by the Fort Lauderdale Airport. Nice fellow at the CycleGear shop named Dennis who got me some nice waterproof Icon shoes. I used Lucas Oil on the GSA and it appeared help with valve noise. Good call on my part and that is not just because I am loaded while writing this!!!

Part One:
I am parked outside the studio waiting for my turn to audition, nervous as shit, (Don't know if shit gets nervous, but I imagine it does.) trying without avail to memorize this fucking monologue that I have chosen for today. I was supposed to have memorized a two to three minute monologue but my memory is shit. (Not the nervous kind!) I have spent the better part of the week trying to memorize this two minute piece, but I'm still fucking up the lines half way through. I'll be grateful if I don't totally embarrass myself. Maybe they will let me just read the damn thing.
I get out of my car five minutes before Showtime, and started to look for 10 Wiltshire. Merde! I was looking at 53 Wiltshire and now had just 4 minutes to reach the rehearsal hall. Shit.Shit.Shit. Walking briskly now I reach my destination with one minute to spare. I knock on the door as per their request and was escorted by the stage manager into a small room where I signed the requisite forms and waited for my turn.
The stage manager pointed to a closed door. "You're up darlin'" she most definitely did not say, but it's what I heard in my head. In reality she just said "Push that door open, they are waiting inside."
I walked into a darkened room lit with a spotlight in the center, and a trio of babes sitting on a long bench in the back of the room. They looked like Charlies Angel's waiting for a call from Charlie.
"You're up" said the blond one.
"Can I read my piece?" I asked hopefully
"Sure" said the one with the long brown braids.
"Phew" I said to myself and the ghost of Joe Greenbaum, my Dad and fellow thespian hopeful who never took his chance to be in the spotlight.
I read my monologue and Braids laughed and Blond Girl chuckled and the Kate Jackson of the trio said nothing.
The blond one introduced herself as Jen, and the girl with the braids was Evangelia and Kate Jackson's name has escaped me.
"Okay" said Jen "Can you please read your piece again? I want to see how you take direction."
"Black, one sugar" I said (Oy! Why did I say that? I'm trying too hard!!)
Luckily all three ignored my faux pas, as Jen instructed me to be more "In the scene and in the moment and…"
Jen suddenly stopped and said:
"Umm, I'm sorry to interrupt but a mouse just dropped from the ceiling!"
I turned to my right and sure enough there was a cute little mousie running stage left.
Evangelia calmly tried to capture the mouse with her plastic Tupperware bowl, but mousie had escaped to live another day.
I have ten thousand issues but cute mousies aren't one of them.
"Interesting development" I said to break the tension.
"Anything can happen in the theatre." said Jen
"Have you ever read the Angelina Ballerina books?" I asked.
"They feature a dancing mouse named Angelina, and since Angelina is my middle name, this mouse must be my power animal!"
The trio surprisingly had no comment, other than to say " Proceed and try your best."
I tried my best to do just that, because this was my chance to have a life re-do.
I was eight years old in the summer of '64 when my parents sent me to Camp Wahanowin, where all the cool kids were supposedly going. My parents were determined to have a child popular with the 'In' crowd. Sadly I was not even a member of the 'Out' crowd, but at eight years old I had no agency, so off I went.
That summer we were doing the play 'Li'l Abner' and I was trying out for the part of Daisy Mae. I knew my parents would be happy if I snagged the lead. I was so excited when the Drama Counselor offered me the prime role of Nurse. I was going to be on stage the entire time! Unfortunately Nurse said not a word throughout the duration of the play. Was I given this role because I spoke differently? I was born with a rare syndrome named Moebius that affected my tongue and speech. I tried not to think about how different I looked and felt, but the shame of being different and then given the silent role of Nurse, stopped me from pursuing my dream of acting until now.
Because now, I can. Because I am the only one who need approve of me. Because shame is toxic and exhausting. Because I am determined to hold my little eight year old's hand and say to her "I got you!"
After my second go round the trio talked about the theatre troupe's auditions, telling me that 99% of who they had auditioned so far were seasoned actors.
"Well there goes that" I said silently to myself.
I told the trio thanks for the memories and left the building, only to get a message from Jen late last night asking me to come in tomorrow with a 3 minute memoir piece of my own.
I stood up way past my bedtime of 9 p.m. with my IPhone stop watch trying to make sure my piece fit the requisite 3 minutes.
Part Two:
This morning I walked in faux confidently and read my poem. Jen said that she will call me by Wednesday and not to wait frantically by the phone.
"It's okay" I said.
"I can wait."

Geographers have discovered what they say is a lost or 'misplaced' county between Louth and Monaghan. Soiamhey, the so-called 33rd county, was discovered by drone last Friday.
The findings were published in Monday's edition of the Northeast Leinster South Ulster Geographers Bi-Monthly Meander in an article entitled How Did We Miss This Atall Atall? The study contends that the county has lain hidden under a haze of outdated Republicanism, diesel fumes and country music.
"It was hiding in plain sight," said Dr. Top O'Graphy of DIFE's renowned Department of Jography & Fitness. "They used the twin headed repellents of Country and Western music to ward off intruders. That was supplemented by a strong smell of slurry."
The county was given its name, Soiamhey, due to the frequency with which the inhabitants used this sound. This follows the traditional tradition of naming counties after the traits of their inhabitants – Down (depression), Armagh (unhealthy levels of mother worship), MEath (general selfishness).
Little is known about the inhabitants of County Soiamhey – 97% of its 110 km2 being under culchie. However, much can be gleaned from the 40 minutes of drone footage released by DIFE. Dr. O'Graphy explained.
"They keep to their own. Like most people who love Country & Western music, they are on the cusp of moving on from an agrarian society to an industrial or services based economy. It is a delicate phase of human development and even the slightest imbalance or shock could send them back to the Hunter-Gatherer phase."
Drone footage of crop circles seems to make out a primitive form of hieroglyphics which appear to highlight such an event. It appears a violent and seismic societal shock occurred after Garth Brooks was refused a five night residence at Croke Park in 2014. What few books they had were burned and those unable to line dance were banished or enslaved, sometimes both.
Within 24 hours, an emergency Government decree ordering satellites to be pointed at the county was passed. No sooner had the feed gone live vans registered to Fianna Fáil were spotted installing Parish Pumps at strategic points throughout the county. Political parties have since sent envoys to meet local chieftains and the High King, Garth.
However it may be too late as soundings from these meetings suggest that the whole county will vote Fianna Fáil, a natural gravitation for any primitive society.

A Quick Timeout
I just realized after beginning to write this post that I had written a post a week ago that I labeled as unfinished and never posted. The post was titled "I'm a Hot Mess" and it deals with the seemingly never-ending anxieties about my life. At the time of writing it, I was getting ready to head out to Cherry Grove and I wasn't totally happy with it, so I never posted it. I wanted to link to it here (see next section!), but I just realized I never posted the piece online, so take a look if you like.

I'm definitely a 5
I recently told you about a book I've been reading, "The Life You Were Born to Live," by Dan Millman (see link above or right here.). It's loosely based on numerology and I find it to be fascinating and on target with a lot of what it says. Anyway, my number, which is based on my exact date of birth is 25/7. To put it succinctly, I have the characteristics of a 2, a 5 and a 7, and oh boy have I been keenly aware of the negative sides to having these numbers lately…but it's a good thing!
Freedom and discipline are the main aspects of a "5," and one of the biggest things I've noted so far about being a "5" is that I need to find the discipline to "focus on one activity at a time rather than scratching the surface of many areas." When I read that I yelled out "Bingo." I already know that this is very true for me in that I am all over the place and I make very little time for just one thing. Even with writing, I write for no less than four websites and this blog and so how effective can I really be?
I understand that in order to find true success one (a "5" like me) must focus on one thing and delve deeply into it. In other words, I should be here for "depth of experience rather than breadth of experience." It's definitely something I need to work on and it's a good sign that I've got it on my mind. I think that maybe I might have to give up one or two of my writing gigs to focus more pointedly, I dunno. It's just one of the many things I've been kicking around…

I'm also a 7
A "7's" main mantra in life is trust and openness. I've always known I've had issues with this and I always thought it was learned from my mom or my dad, but now I'm not so sure. I've always had trouble expressing my feelings, not trusting that others will still like me with whatever faults I may perceive myself to have. It surfaces in virtually every relationship I have, and it always results in mixed communication, confusion and trouble. I remember "he" used to tell me sometimes that he really had no idea what I was thinking at any point in time and at the time I thought nothing of it, but he was right.
I've been trying to address this issue the past couple of weeks in my dealings with guys. In the post above, I mentioned that I finally turned Nick away, telling him point blank that I wanted no contact with him whatsoever. I'd been stringing him along unknowingly by not being direct and even though I have heard from him once since, he knows how I feel and I think we're both the better for it.
Trying some directness on for size
I had to travel down the same path once again this week with Ozzie, who apparently had stronger feelings for me than I had thought. Though I had said to him several times that I wasn't interested in a relationship, he took it the wrong way, and it's my fault for not being direct enough. I'd told him that my relationship from earlier in the year had caused me not to want to get into another one anytime soon, and that is true to some extent, but the truth was I wasn't interested in him in that particular way and I should have said so in the first place.
He and I had a "date" the other night during which I had planned to tell him straight up. The trouble with Ozzie is, I really do like him as a person and I have a feeling that he and I would make very good friends. I was/am afraid of losing him altogether, but I am prepared if that's the case.
Of course, the date never went as planned. Poor Ozzie got stuck on the highway on the way to my house and I ended up sitting with him on the side of the road for a couple of hours. Finally after he got towed, we went to Fridays for a late-night bite to eat. The conversation turned to us inevitably and though I did have trouble getting it out, I finally did. He seemed okay with it, grateful for the fact that we'd still be friends at least, but the next day it became clear that he was still harboring hope. (Sound familiar? Hmmm…)
Anyway, through a text message the next day, Ozzie told me that he understood that I was "hesitant," which was not the case at all. I realized right away that I had to be utterly direct and tell him the truth flat out (which I really thought I had done the night before!). As it turns out, he'd seized the engine on his car and he was really down at the time, so I can't imagine how well he really took the news when I texted him back. He said he was okay, but I haven't spoken to him or texted with him since Thursday. I do hope this works out, but if it doesn't I will understand.

I've Heard This One Before
Writing this past portion of my post reminded me of my situation with "him" way back in January. At this point I can't remember if I recounted this part of our ending, but on the last night he spent with me he told me that if I had any hope of getting back with him, he wanted me to know that that was never going to happen. It was during our second tourney together and things were much more muddled than that, but it's funny how I just found myself in a similar position as he was, only he never really gave me the chance to stay friends.
School's Back!
I would have thought that this would have been the first part of my post today, but here I am at the end, just getting to it. The first week back at school felt like I'd never left. My class size shrunk to just 7 students, and even though it's a small number my job is still very difficult.
The principal has taken a sudden and welcome interest in what I do and he's asked me to meet with him on Monday, make yet another presentation to the faculty on Wednesday (not again!) and meet with all of the teachers individually on Friday. Needless to say that on top of planning lessons and dealing with the kids, these extra duties have led to extra stress for me going into the new year. It's gonna be a long week!

Well I think I've given you enough to read for one post, especially when coupled with my earlier pieces on 9/11. I'd like to share another track off of David Guetta's awesome new album, which I plan on reviewing very soon. This one's called "Crank It Up," and it features the vocals of Akon, who also sang on the hot song from Guetta's last album "One Love" called "Sexy Bitch." Love it!

Fear and Loathing In Las VegasHD Closed Captioning
Terry Gilliam
Open iTunes to preview, buy, and download this movie.
About the Movie
When a writing assignment lands journalist Raoul Duke (Johnny Depp) and sidekick Dr. Gonzo (Benicio Del Toro) in Las Vegas, they decide to make it the ultimate business trip. But before long, business is forgotten and trip has become the key word. Fueled by a suitcase full of mind-bending pharmaceuticals, Duke and Gonzo set off on a fast and furious ride through nonstop neon, surreal surroundings and a crew of the craziest characters ever (including cameo appearances by Cameron Diaz, Christina Ricci, Gary Busey and many others). But no matter where misadventure leads them, Duke and Gonzo discover that sometimes going too far is the only way to go.

Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: (Gilliam's) vision is too reflexively comic to evoke the shadows of dread in Thompson's writing.
Rotten: Pic serves up a sensory overload without any compensatory reflection on the outlandish and irresponsible behavior on view.
Fresh: It's certainly distinctive, looking at times like Richard Lester put through a postmodernist blender.
Fresh: Bizarre, unpredictable yet strangely alluring.
Customer Reviews
The book. The movie. Both absolutely AWESOME!!! Depp is so FUNNY in this film!!! It has to be one of my favorite J. Depp films. Gotta love this movie!!! Buy it. Love it. Experience the overdose.
A fantastic trip
This is such a great movie, it never gets old for me! I may own it on DVD and VHS, but I bought it here just to carry around on my iphone. If it weren't one of my favorites, there's no way I'd own 3 copies of it now :)
"If anythings worth doing, it's worth doing right"
This is my all time favorite movie, Depp perfectly captures the gonzo journalist's image. It covers the end of and era in both a meaningful and absolutely insane way. Its one of those movies that you just have to see, whether you buy or just rent. P.S. - Benecio DelToro's physical transformation for this film is jaw-dropping, you probably won't recognize him

My living room looks like a craft workshop at the moment. This is the reason for my absence lately. I'm working on projects for various upcoming events – my sister turns 40 in August this year and my baby is due to be born in September so I've made myself busy with creative projects for these two very important events. I am writing, though not in the conventional sense. Without giving too much away in case my sister reads this, I'm writing for her at the moment, and loving every minute of it.
Anyway, I really just wanted to send out good wishes to every one of my online buddies and to let you know I'm still reading (and loving) your blogs. I haven't given up my blog either.

Since the early days when the sport was anything but a mainstream endeavor, the MMA industry has thrived and survived through various websites, forums and, perhaps most importantly, social-media platforms.
Fighters interact with fans, each other and many more through the likes of Twitter, Facebook and Instagram, which helps outsiders get a deeper look into the minds of the athletes.
Following Saturday's UFC 212 event in Rio de Janeiro, several of the winning and losing fighters, along with their coaches, training partners or family members, took to social media to react to the event or share a message with supporters.

Takes courage not to give up. Takes resilience to believe in yourself regardless what people think or say. If at the beginning was all about explosion, now I learned how to take my time. Mixing my power with my maturity is a new trick I have in my sleeve. I am reinventing myself again and that's the beauty of life. Thanks @natemarquardt , was a honor to share the Octagon with a gentleman like you. Thanks to my coaches and friends @firas_zahabi @sandro.ferr @gustavomclacerda for all your support during this journey. @salesjuniorr @sergiojuniorrft @marcelo_fadul was great having you with us this week. @thelouiegram @alexgarciamma @districtjomeunier and all my Tristar teammates I am thankful for everything you have done to me and specially the way you all welcome me at the gym.
