We can see the land covered in gray since a while and as we come closer the fog lifts for a short moment so that we can make the pinnacle out that stands like a needle in the south.
It's starting to rain and bearisland is becoming more shape.
My shift is with Riley but Fredrik is still up there steering, so I'm reading my book. Magnetic North. A tip I got on the Orkneys from a lady I met in the shower, she comes from newzeeland. The book is a brief introduction of the parts, countries and their beliefs or interests in the Arctic. My main focus lies on Spitzbergen but I will surely read the rest of the book as well.
I have learned so fare that animals in the Arctic have more fat than the same species elsewhere in the world and that some animal travel from pol to pol and some take 1600years for that journey.
Also interesting is the fact that greenhouse gasses are captured in the permafrost and that due to the global warming they are set free. It's a catch 22.
The animals also store more environmental poison in their fat and spread it through commercial fishing globally.
Yes, it is a national reservoir but it sounds anything else but healthy.
Baerisland. In the Barents sea, halfway between North Cap and Spitzbergen lays an island only few have ever heard of. It's 20x13km long and only 9 meteorologists live on it with three dogs amongst bird colonies. There is no huddle, no noise that would proof human living around. All you can here is a noise of the birds, flying out for food or to play in the wind, calling for their partner or require food. And occasionally a wave breaking on shore. This island truly is in nowhere and we aren't jet there where we are aiming for.
We anchor in a bay at bearisland in the south but we are not allowed on land. It would probably not easy to overcome the cliffs but I saw a little sandy beach. That would have been interesting. But I still hope that we find a spot to anchor in the north, close to the weather station tomorrow.
The plan is to leave over night, it's light anyways and we could then reach the weather station in civil times. It is assumed that the swell in the north is bigger and no one could sleep their or is free willing to cook. So we tent to stay as little on the ship as we can and do all the cool things one can do on bearisland.
Like: visiting the weather station, join a nude dipping club, see a merchandise store, have a walk and have a shower.
For now this means, reading my book, sleep a while and hoping that a talented chef is on duty today.

Initiatives to address ethics and Board of Supervisor salaries to be circulated
Amid ongoing corruption probes into San Bernardino County government, initiatives introduced to curb costs to taxpayers and promote ethics reform
[SAN BERNARDINO]: The Committee to Reform San Bernardino County Government is a grassroots group whose mission it is to bring about much-needed oversight of elected officials on behalf of the citizens of corruption-ridden San Bernardino County. The county has been plagued with scandals since the 1990s, and numerous county officials have faced state and federal charges. Two initiatives have been written that will allow voters to change the county's charter so that elected officials cannot gain financial benefits without voter approval and will provide additional "transparency" county officials claim they desire.
The proposed reforms include making members of the Board of Supervisors part time and reducing their pay to reflect the hours of service they provide to the public; and capping campaign contributions. The reforms mirror many of those already in place or being made elsewhere in California's 58 counties.
The "Elected Officials Pay Reduction Act" will reduce the members of the Board of Supervisors to part time, reduce their salaries that, in some cases, exceed $300,000 a year, and reduce the amount they are allowed to spend on staff and offices. Currently, board secretaries, which are among the lowest paid employees, have salary and benefit packages that are close to or exceed $100,000 per year. Board staffing and salaries have increased far more than the cost of living or the increase in county population during the same period. The new cap will bring the Board of Supervisors more in line with the staffing and office budgets provided to members of the California Legislature.
The "San Bernardino County Elected Officials Ethics Reform Act" will place caps on the amounts that the county's elected officials can receive from individual donors. It will also eliminate contributions from corporations and unions. Recent corruption cases suggest that some county officials have participated in a "pay-to-play" scheme where those making large campaign contributions have a higher degree of access to those elected officials. This initiative will level the playing field.
This act will also require online reporting of all contributions over $200 within 24 hours so that voters in outlying areas can make informed decisions at the voting booth. Contributions will no longer be allowed to be hidden from public view until after the election.
Additional information can be found at www.ReformSBCounty.com. Once the petitions are approved as to form by the San Bernardino County Registrar of Voters, they will be available for download. In the meantime, the petition language is available on the website.
The petition-gathering firm of Arno Political Consultants, one of California's most respected signature-gathering firms, has been contracted with to collect the signatures. Arno has a proven track record of qualifying initiatives. The firm is currently gathering signatures for several statewide ballot initiatives.
Brian T. Hildreth of the law firm of Bell, McAndrews & Hiltachk, LLP, one of California's most prestigious political law firms, drafted the initiatives.
What do you think? Will this help the system?————Paul Schrader

The Best Revenge
My day today opened with a surprise, an unexpected circumstance...
The point is, whatever that surprise was, it led me to today's lesson:
Lesson of the Day: Being happy is the sweetest revenge.
Sometimes, people hurt us so much that we wish that they too would know how it hurt.
We want revenge.
But isn't it that the more we act on taking our revenge, we are hurt even more?
One strike at the enemy, three strikes back to us...
I'm not really intending any revenge... nor I considered that person an enemy. When that person hurt me a long time ago, revenge never whispered on my ears. I just went on with my life, just being happy.
What will I get if I exact revenge anyway?
It's that person's loss anyway, not mine. And even though I didn't make an effort to make that person's life miserable, s/he caused his/her own downfall... because that person never gave me a chance to be a part of his/her life.
In a way, I'm exaggerating, ok? But that's the thought.
And now, as that person saw me the way I am this morning, untainted and unbruised...
...guess who's having the last laugh?
Speaking of revenge, we went to the Hall of Justice today for an affidavit of loss for a new ID.
The Modus Operandi: We will have new IDs but we have to surrender our old ones. So my classmate will 'file' an affidavit of loss to keep the old ID.

Me going crazy, lol!

2) Bread: mini-cheese, pre-war pandesal, other pandesal (Pa-a, Tinapayan), French bread
3) Lunch tomorrow at Perry Todd's
4) A dream to taste Pizza Hut's Viva Lasagna
Topic 2: Miscellaneous
1) Imaginary Friends
2) The trick of "galupok nga Mentos"

2) Kahon: (

Landscape II
Carlos A. Angeles
Sun in the knifed horizon bleeds the sky
Spilling a peacock stain upon the sands,
Across some murdered rocks refused to die.
It is your absence touches my sad hands
Blinded like flags in the wreck of air.
And catacombs of cloud enshroud the cool
And calm involvement of the darkened plains,
The stunted mourners here: and here, a full
And universal tenderness which drains
The sucked and golden breath of sky comes bare.
Now, while the dark basins the void of space,
Some sudden crickets, ambushing me near,
Discover vowels of your whispered face
And subtly cry. I touch your absence here
Remembering the speeches of your hair.

Several friends have mentioned cattle rustlers... does that still HAPPEN these days?!?!?!? Being the ranch expert that I am, I am quite unsure...
One friend suggested UFO bovine abduction.
I like it.

My cousin wanted me to post something "happy" today. So here is some happy news...in case you're needing some.
1. According to the weather channel, it's going to be 66F on Friday. I can't wait. I love fall. It's my very favorite season. Bring on the warm apple cider.
2. Kids Cancer Crusade is making some hoodies! AMAZING!!! (I know). This is directly linked to my love of fall. My family will attest that if I could live in hoodies, i would. Apparently, they're not "professional", though.
3. I am (finally) buying Celia Rivenbark's new book (You Don't Sweat Much for a Fat Girl) today. If she doesn't make you laugh, you don't have a sense of humor. I highly recommend ALL of her work.
4. The farmer's market is overflowing with absolutely delicious apples (and apple cider). Now that I can actually walk outside without feeling gross, it's a great morning stop.
5. And, last, but most certainly not least, my family is (allegedly) planning a trip to Niagara Falls. I can't say I'm excited though because we can't seem to find a date we're all free that doesn't land us at the end of November so we'll see. I'll keep you posted.
What's your news on this lovely Monday?

US Government prevaricates on:
US Government prevaricates on: "It has now become quite common to hear U.S. officials confidently assert that 90 percent of the weapons used by the Mexican drug cartels come from the United States. However, a close examination of the dynamics of the cartel wars in Mexico — and of how the oft-echoed 90 percent number was reached — clearly demonstrates that the number is more political rhetoric than empirical fact." http://bit.ly/fyy4Yt
almost 90 percent of the guns seized in Mexico in 2008 were not traced back to the United States. http://bit.ly/fyy4Yt

Your first major shoot is always a joy. Not only did you meet a lot of new people, but you completed your first shoot! Whether it was good or bad, you will definitely learn a lot.
With that being said, I had to take in a lot of information and apply it the very next day! My main focus was the cinematography. When it comes to cinematography, it is the most beautiful part of the process (along with audio). I wanted to improve my shots for the second shoot. During the first shoot, I had issues with stability and didn't know the general wedding layout ahead of time, making the shots shaky.
Wedding Cinematography with Ray Roman offers phenomenal tutorials about cinematography, production, post production and more!
There are going to be times where you will need to move around a lot, making it a good idea to keep these helpful tips in mind. Video University mentions these ideas:
1) Scout the area ahead of time to find things to lean against. A sturdy object in the vicinity will do. By doing this, you can now hold the camera steady enough.
2) Try to not zoom in and use a long lens while moving. It is very hard to gain focus. What you should try to do is walk closer to the subject and then film. This way you do not have to worry about shaky shots as much.
Overall, you want great picture and a general layout ahead of time, making the job fun and less stressful. The cinematography will look beautiful in the end and the couple will love you for it! My second wedding shoot went ten times smoother because of these ideas. So please, take note of your mistakes!
Next time I will talk about some of the imperative pieces of equipment that you should add to your gear set!

Pittsburgh has been having quite the chilly streak for the past few days, and we need something to warm us up – so why not try kuzuyu, a warm Japanese beverage made from kuzu vine? While this thick, syrupy beverage may not entice the eye, it will delight the palate and is often used as both as dessert and a remedy for sore throats and runny noses. Even better, this beverage takes just minutes to make ,and you should be able to find kuzu powder at your local specialty grocery store.
– 1 tsbp. Sugar
– 1 tsbp. kuzu powder
– 1 cup hot water
1. Boil the water in a tea kettle, and let cook while preparing the powder.
2. Use a spoon to disintegrate any blocks in the kuzu powder. Kuzu powder is a starch, so whenever it comes in contact with moisture, it tends to thicken and stick together. It is easiest to mix it in if the powder is very fine.
3. Pour the water in the kettle in a tall mug, and mix in kuzu powder and sugar.
4. Stir until the beverage takes on a syrupy consistency.
5. Enjoy!

Calais, E., O. Lesne, J. Deverchère, V. Sankov, A. Lukhnev, A. Miroshnitchenko, V. Buddo, K. Levi, V. Zalutzky, and Y. Bashkuev, GPS measurements of crustal deformation in the Baikal rift zone, Siberia, Geophys. Res. Letters, 25, 4003-4006, 1998.
The Baikal rift zone, located at the northern edge of the central Asia intracontinental deformation zone, is the largest active continental rift system in Eurasia. It extends over a distance of about 2000 km along the S-shaped paleozoic suture that separates the Siberian Platform from the Sayan-Baikal mobile belt. GPS measurements in the Baikal rift zone were initiated in July 1994 with the installation and first observation of a network of 11 sites covering its southern and western parts. Three years and four campaigns of Global Positioning System (GPS) measurements (1994-1997) in the Baikal rift zone, largest active continental rift system in Eurasia, show crustal extension at a rate of 4.5±1.2 mm/yr in a WNW-ESE direction. A comparison with moment release of large historical earthquakes suggests that elastic strain is currently accumulating in the Baikal rift zone along active faults that currently have the potential for a M=7.5 earthquake. The GPS-derived extension rate in the Baikal rift zone is at least two times greater than the prediction of most deformation models of Asia. This result could reflect the dynamic contribution of the Pacific-Eurasia subduction to intracontinental deformation in Asia, in addition to the effect of the India-Eurasia collision.

Have 5 Ways To Deal With Difficult People At Work
I came up with this particular post because at work recently, for some strange reason, I've had to deal with some very tricky customers. My ideas do mainly focus around customers at an eating establishment, however I'm sure my methods could be tweaked so that they apply to people you work with in an office environment, for example.
1. Try to stick to the classic saying "The customer is always right", even if they so, totally are not right. In other words, even before you figure out how you're going to deal with Mr and Mrs Stroppy Knickers, chant this mantra to yourself (in your mind ovbs.) while breathing innnnnnn through your nose! And ouutttttt through your mouth.
2. Now to act upon the mantra: Apologise profusely (and if serving somebody, offer a refund/exchange/freebie next time). Recently I served a gentleman who ate all of his beef and horseradish sandwich – bar a scrap of crust about 1cm x 1cm in size – and then called me over to complain about how he barely managed to eat the sandwich because the meat was so tough and gristly. At first I thought he was joking and burst out laughing. Embarrassing much? I did so, because his plate was virtually licked clean, but when I registered that his expression was not one of joy I quickly began to offer my sincere apologies for his sub-standard dining experience. You want to placate the person you're dealing with, even if you truly believe they don't deserve an apology.
3. If someone is undeniably rude to you, then have the courage to stand up for yourself. I don't mean, however tempting it may be, get in a slanging match with that person. That just lowers you to their level, so there's no better time to remember your mother's vital words of wisdom "Rise above it!". What I mean, is if someone is unnecessarily and unacceptably rude to you then try (and I know it's difficult to be brave when caught up in the moment) and muster the strength to say something like "I can see that you're upset Madam but please don't speak to me in that tone/manner because I find it very disrespectful". A lot of the time, people will try their luck and be unspeakably vulgar (often towards younger people at my work, I have found) and coming back with a calm retort such as that will often stun and embarrass them somewhat. It may even reduce them to an apology if you're lucky, because they're not expecting it.
4. This leads me to…Keep smiling. It follows on nicely from Number 3, because remaining calm and smiling is your best form of defence. There's nothing like smiling at a nutter (excuse the brash term, but I do often feel like I'm serving crazy people!) in the face when they're slowly going bright red, steam is coming out of their ears and they're panting like a mad Bloodhound. Anger met with anger is predictable – but a gleaming white smile, particularly if you have a nice set of gnashers, is rather disconcerting and will make you feeltotally in control. Trust me.
5. You've bottled up your tears at being shouted at/your anger towards someone insolent and now you can go home and wail/bitch to a friend/loved one all about it. That person will be a shoulder to cry on and will support you to the death, so it's great to let all of your frustration out with them listening. It's brilliant therapy and they'll give you even more advice for the next time you're faced with a difficult person, because let's face it, there's lots of 'em in the world.

Automotive Information And Evaluations
Rising developments in mobility know-how, such because the rise of ridehailing and carsharing companies, have led many business analysts to supply their views on how these traits will affect the automotive business within the United States. The experiences stemming from these efforts have resulted in extremely conflicting visions of the longer term, starting from a dramatic decline in automobile sales to a windfall in revenue and earnings.

Game 82: Blue Jays at Yankees
Monday, July 6, 2009
Jeter SS
Swisher 1B
Teixeira DH
Rodriguez 3B
Posada C
Cano 2B
Cabrera LF
Hinske RF
Gardner CF
Pitching: LHP Andy Pettitte (8-3, 4.25).
Scutaro SS
Hill DH
Wells CF
Rolen 3B
Rios RF
Millar 1B
Bautista LF
Barajas C
McDonald 2B
Pitching: LHP Ricky Romero (6-3, 2.85).
TIME/TV: 1:05 p.m., YES.
Keep on Rollin': The Yankees have won 10 of their last 12 and are 15 games over .500. They are 1 game behind the AL East leading Boston Red Sox.
Captain Consistency: Derek Jeter hit his 10th home run of the season yesterday, marking his 14th consecutive season with 10-or-more home runs. He is now one of six Yankees to do this and one of five active Major League players through 2008 or 2009. The other Yankees to have done that: Mantle (1951-68), Berra (1947-62), Ruth (1920-34), Gehrig (1925-38) and Bernie (1993-06). Pretty good company if you ask me.
Blue Jay Beatdown: The Yankees are 5-1 against Toronto this season, their only loss coming against All-Star Roy Halladay.
UPDATE 1:21: Well, the blown call costs the Yankees a run. A really short day for Girardi, but he has to protect his Captain. As the play happened I thought he was out, but when Jeter got up and started arguing the way he did I started to believe he was safe, and he was. And when Girardi stopped at third base, I really thought he might pull a Lou Pinalla and toss it.
UPDATE 2:04: Since there were 2 outs when Rios hit that home run, the blown call allowed the Blue Jays to score 3 more runs than they would have. That is, of course, if you believe in the fallacy of the predetermined outcome. (Don't worry, it will be a Michael Kayism). And how many close plays is Jeter going to be involved in?
UPDATE 2:15: I'm pretty sure the inning ended before Kay could follow up on David Cone saying, "the mound at Yankee Stadium has always been center stage" with a plug about the show.
UPDATE 2:18: Why would 2 fans in Florida have Michael Kay's cell phone number? And why don't we have it?
UPDATE 2:28: Welcome to the Yankees, Eric Hinske. Second at-bat on the team and he hits a solo home run off the screen of the foul pole. Not bad. And now Gardner singles, maybe the Yankees can get something going.
UPDATE 3:20: We were taking a short break from the game to watch a car chase, and luckily we did, because that was much more exciting than this debacle before us right now.
UPDATE 3:23: These Geico commercials are getting extremely stupid. You know they've taken the Caveman thing too far when the best they can come up with is a caveman running through the streets to some 3 Doors Down song.
UPDATE 3:28: That call was absolutely HORRIBLE. It wasn't even close!
UPDATE 3:57: So maybe Jeter can shake the bad luck he's had so far today and hit his 2nd career grand slam.
UPDATE 4:05: Anyone else smell that? It smells to me like a comeback.
UPDATE 4:32: They are only doing this because I started writing the recap. Hinske the chance to be a hero in his first game.

I have just finished my second essay for my new course. In typical me-fashion, I had not started to write this until today. By the time I came home, I had written 300 words (work was unnaturally busy today which stopped my from writing much at all during the day) and so I managed to bash out another 1300 words this evening. Now the essay just needs to be delivered by my lovely hubs when he finishes his overtime (which means technically it will be late in but lets hope my tutor goes to bed before midnight meaning he will not know for sure that the essay was late in)!
I have just poured myself a can of the amber nectar, and was about to enjoy some That 70s Show but I cannot find our Sky remote control. I don't know if the cleaner has 'tidied' it or if Ricardo purposely hid it so that I would not get distracted by the TV whilst trying to write my essay. If its the former, I have looked in all the obvious places. If its the latter, I commend the idea but I HAVE FINISHED NOW AND I WANNA WATCH ME SOME TEEVEE!!!!!

Design trends which will put a 'spring' into your home in 2012.
There is a definite trend towards a Scandinavian-style this year, reflected in a clean, pared-down look for furniture, wallpapers and muted colours. This combines brilliantly with the retro 60s-feel to furniture design over the last year or so, which means you can update your look very easily without having to throw everything out and start again!
Wood furniture, rather than painted, especially natural wood finishes which show off the beauty of the grain, help to bring the outdoors indoors and team wonderfully with the floral and bird designs we are seeing on wallpapers at present.
Nature has been a big theme for the past couple of years, with butterflies appearing on many home decorating elements, but to freshen your look and keep your home on trend, swap your butterfly wallpapers for those featuring large florals or intricate bird designs.
For those amongst you who have embraced the geometric elements of retro design, you'll be delighted to know that geometric patterns are absolutely on trend this spring. Update and highlight the geometric elements you have already got in your interior designs with well-chosen accessories, such as angular crystal chandeliers and retro-style mirrors.
Soften any harsh lines with jewel-bright colour-accents, such as vases, cushions or throws. And for your windows combine functional blinds with fabulous curtains to frame and make a feature in your room."
During last winter, there was a strong leaning towards muted autumn colours in heavier fabrics, such as wools and tweeds, but these are now being replaced by softer colour palettes in velvets and devore fabrics. These textured fabrics keep the visual warmth in a room but, when they introduce accents of colour, they also help to bring spring into your home and remind you that warmer days are once again around the corner."
Why not give me a call to arrange a personal home appointment, and together we can give your home an exciting and vibrant start to 2013

Digital Fundamentals (11th Edition)
Author: Thomas L. Floyd
Publisher: Pearson
Genres: Electrical Engineering
Publish Date: July 24, 2014
Pages: 912
File Type: PDF
Language: English
Follow @booksfree4you
This eleventh edition of Digital Fundamentals continues a long tradition of presenting a strong foundation in the core fundamentals of digital technology. This text provides basic concepts reinforced by plentiful illustrations, examples, exercises, and applications. Applied Logic features, Implementation features, troubleshooting sections, programmable logic and PLD programming, integrated circuit technologies, and the special topics of signal conversion and processing, data transmission, and data processing and control are included in addition to the core fundamentals. New topics and features have been added to this edition, and many other topics have been enhanced.
The approach used in Digital Fundamentals allows students to master the all-important fundamental concepts before getting into more advanced or optional topics. The range of topics provides the flexibility to accommodate a variety of program requirements. For example, some of the design-oriented or application-oriented topics may not be appropriate in some courses. Some programs may not cover programmable logic and PLD programming, while others may not have time to include data transmission or data processing. Also, some programs may not cover the details of "inside-the-chip" circuitry. These and other areas can be omitted or lightly covered without affecting the coverage of the fundamental topics. A background in transistor circuits is not a prerequisite for this textbook, and the coverage of integrated circuit technology (inside-the-chip circuits) is optionally presented.
New in This Edition
• New page layout and design for better visual appearance and ease of use
• Revised and improved topics
• Obsolete devices have been deleted.
• The Applied Logic features (formerly System Applications) have been revised and new topics added. Also, the VHDL code for PLD implementation is introduced and illustrated.
• A new boxed feature, entitled Implementation, shows how various logic functions can be implemented using fixed-function devices or by writing a VHDL program for PLD implementation.
• Boolean simpliication coverage now includes the Quine-McCluskey method and the Espresso method is introduced.
• A discussion of Moore and Mealy state machines has been added.
• The chapter on programmable logic has been modiied and improved.

If it has not become obvious yet… it will now. My favourite colour is purple.
1. Pennybridge A5 in Purple with iPad holder. Simply because I dream of being able to seamlessly merge my paper life with my iPad.
2. Holborn A5 in wine. Simply because it looks professional.
3. Personal Aston in Orchid. Simply because it looks (and feels) beautiful. I was torn between getting this one and my Malden last month.
4. Personal Holborn Zip. Again, it has a tidy professional feel, but I have never used a zipped Filofax before I do not know whether I would like it as much.

Is… Is this really a Site Related thing when I'm talking about the sister site? Oh well, who cares.
I just did an overhaul of Welltun Cares Reviews. Something about the previous theme (ChaoticSoul) never quite jelled for me. I liked the black, I liked how the colors looked, but there. Was. Something. Wrong.
So when WordPress.com announced a new theme (iNove), I checked it out and something just clicked. I had to have it.
One problem. Some of the colors used while posting in ChaoticSoul didn't quite work. ChaotucSoul had a black background; Inove a white one. Words that were bright in the former were all but invisible in the latter.
Changes had to be made. Ones that made sure that things would look fine in black or in white.
Peachy, right?
Ah, but there was another problem. I didn't care for the catagories. So that, too, had to be changed. Sounds simple, but a lot of dancing about went into it. Enough to make my head spin.
So that's it. No more work on that site. Finito. I can rest and…
What's that?
I haven't put a review up for this week yet?
I still do those?

It has been an incredible month for our little family. We have moved home, changed churches, made new friends, started a new job, begun learning a new culture, tried to buy a house, been to Melbourne, had wonderful visitors and ….
We have so much to thank God for. We are being stretched. We are learning so much. We are learning so much as a married couple. Two things I have learnt.
(1) It is hard being a newcomer.
More than ever before I have understood how hard it is to join a church. The swathe of people is at times overwhelming. Learning the culture is intense. Feeling settled takes much longer than 2 weeks. As newcomers join our churches we need to empathise with how they are feeling. It's new and daunting for most. The more time we give to befriending and loving them, the quicker they will conenct.
The welcome for us at the Point has been wonderful. I thank God for the people who have helped settle us new people into our new church
(2) When everything is thrown in the air, Jesus is steadfast.
We have not been displaced or undergone great suffering. But we have experienced major change for the first time in our marriage. When our wonderful home church and friends and family are 400km away, we are forced to rely on each other and our Lord Jesus. This has been refreshing. I am so thankful for my wonderful wife and the constant support she is to me and our little man. I am so thankful to Jesus for being constant and faithful. Change has grown me even though I deeply miss the people in my life from the south.
1 month down … many to go. Looking forward to it.

Improving Word Choice in Academic Writing – Tools You Need
believe that effective writing is all about effective word choice and proper
ordering. Making appropriate word choice and using these words appropriately,
however, can be a challenge to many academic writers, in particular those who
write in a second language. This workshop introduces aspects of vocabulary
knowledge that academic writers should pay attention to and tools
that these writers can use in order to select words correctly and
effectively when writing academic texts.

Finally, the potatoes are all harvested. Now, crates of them are in the garage curing before their trip down to the root cellar. So, harvest is not really finished completely but enough that it is getting crossed off the 'to-do' list. (Cleaning the garage is still, needless to say, on the list). Farmer Boy decided the old potato digger we possess was beyond it's useful life, so he took up rows with the plow. Then, we have to pick up anything the plow turns up. Fortunately, Serhiy was here to help or it would have been a very long day of bending and stooping! We had to be careful to watch for signs of frost damage on the tubers, and immediately discard damaged potatoes in the field. We'll go through them again before putting them in the root cellar.

Potato Harvest Finished - Whew!

So glad things are under control and you're getting these things done. Soon you will be able to spend a bit more time on leisure activities (it's good to have a goal)!ReplyDelete
There still seems to be soooo much to do! The 'to-do' list gets longer every time we think about it! Still have to winterize the fruit trees, clean out the greenhouse, finish the coop, go through stuff to go into the root cellar, go through stuff in the root cellar to make sure there's no mold or rot, clean the tools, find the snowblower and get it ready.....it just goes on and on. And always the cycle of feeding the animals and collecting eggs.ReplyDelete

Greece in the age of heroes. Patroclus, an awkward young prince, has been exiled to the court of King Peleus and his perfect son Achilles. Despite their differences, Achilles befriends the shamed prince, and as they grow into young men skilled in the arts of war and medicine, their bond blossoms into something deeper – despite the displeasure of Achilles's mother Thetis, a cruel sea goddess. But when word comes that Helen of Sparta has been kidnapped, Achilles must go to war in distant Troy and fulfill his destiny. Torn between love and fear for his friend, Patroclus goes with him, little knowing that the years that follow will test everything they hold dear.
Anyone who knows me knows I love a good retelling. And that I love anything to do with myths and legends. So of course, in that respect, I love this book already.
The thing about retellings is…you already know the story. Yet each retelling is different. And what I love about this book is that, despite the fact I knew what was happening, and what was going to happen, it still managed to surprise me, still managed to have me up in the early hours in the morning wondering what had happened to my life to make me cry over the story and wondering if I would ever get over it (the answer is no. I first read it over a year ago when I was given it for my birthday. Since then I have wanted to reread it on countless occasions, but didn't, and also since then, I have found myself thinking about the characters a lot. I finally reread it this week, so I'm sure the same will be happening in the future year)
I love every aspect of this book.
Patroclus' narration is wonderful- it's simple but powerful, and he is a character we can relate to. He is, in essence, the 'least interesting' character in the story- he is not favoured by gods, he is not half-god, like Achilles, is is not a good fighter, in fact, he's pretty much useless on the battlefield. He's an outcast, exiled and seemingly unwanted by everyone apart from Achilles. In a cast of kings and princes, Patroclus stands out, because he is so human and by being human, he brings out the ordinary in everyone else. I don't think the story would have worked from any other PoV, or from third person, because… this is not a story about war and Troy. It's a love story, a boy and a half-god in love while they try to survive war and gods and the anger both brings.
But it's not just Patroclus- all the characters are wonderful. And through Patroclus, you cannot help but fall a bit for Achilles. From the musical prince to the warrior, he changes so much, but you still cant help but love him. He is different to how we have read and seen him before- through Patroclus he is not full of wrath. Through Patroclus we see Achilles care for more than his fame and glory- most of the time. Of course, Achilles is still arrogant, still prideful (and oh god, dont you want to shake him when he is) but Patroclus makes him seem….more mortal.
And then…there is the end. I adore the last 50 pages, despite how much they destroy me. Its so beautifully written, every emotion so strong, as if you are not reading off a page but stood next to them all, watching and seeing it all play out.
Miller is an extraordinary writer, the words so lyrical and beautiful they draw you in completely.

The Candidate: Brown Giusti leather and suede knee-high boots that I found at the Goodwill for $20. Of course, they were a size 5 1/2 (I'm a 7 1/2) but that didn't stop me!
The Goal: A pair of versatile brown boots
The Results:
I went out to dinner last night with family and this is what I wore!
Boots: Giusti via Goodwill
Tights: Hue via Plato's Closet
Sweater dress: Ross
These boots are so high, I feel like they need to be toned down for work--this was my attempt.
Boots: Giusti via Goodwill
Tights: Hue via Plato's Closet
Skirt: Brass Plum via Goodwill
Shirt: Toomi via Goodwill Outlet
Scarf: Self-made
Boots: Giusti via Goodwill
Pants: Martin & Osa via Goodwill
Jacket: AE via Plato's Closet
These pants are almost too wide for the boots! I need some ultra skinnies to wear with these boots properly...dare I say it? JEGGINGS?
Boots: Giusti via Goodwill
Pants: Martin & Osa via Goodwill
Scarf: From a market in the Ukraine
Long-sleeved shirt: Gap via Plato's Closet
Sweater: One Clothing via Ross
The Verdict: I was sold from the moment I tried these suckers on and they ACTUALLY FIT MY CALVES. The ONLY pair that has ever done that! Plus, I Googled Giusti and found that apparently they make high quality shoes and their boots retail for between 300-600$. Done and done. The only thing that I don't like about them is that the suede attracts dirt like a magnet! I have tried brushing them and waterproofing them, and we'll see how long they look nice for...However, for how they are right now, I am pleased. Cute with skirts and pants (albeit only super skinny ones), good for work and relaxing, and they are in my color palette! Score!

Daily Kos – Out of Practice
July 13, 2005
This article, on the other hand, is quite good. For example, I
appreciate this statement:
> That's the story now. The law will take care of itself. The Plame
> prosecutor will tell us about that if and when he hands down
> indictments.
> But the White House has been lying to the American People about the
> fact that Rove leaked Plame's identity and about the fact that the
> President would fire whoever leaked this information.
I like how you state your opinion (that the evidence points to Rove
being guilty) and then assert your confidence in the justice system to
come to the correct conclusion. Furthermore, I like how you direct the
reader to the *real* story (in my opinion) that the White House covered
all this up for so long.
I'd like to see more articles written in this more respectful, less
frantic tone.

Weeks progress
Came home and bought a new mp3 player. I had planned to send some of those good shots of mine to orkut media page, but it turned out that I saw some profiles of great photographers and decided to wait for some while.
Did some ATRP reactions for my research and as usual everything turned out to be bull. AFM results proved my inept ability to master the instrument. Went for the weekly soccer game and met Brandon as my apponent. But still I had Reynolds as my striker. Assisted Rey in two easy goals, tackled Brandon with all my strength (my body weight) and had a good battle with the chineese who were sweaty-slippery (they removed their t shirts coz it was damn hot).
Went to Ohio for the weekend cricket game. Great city should I say. The downtown is large and made a puny out of my current city (Lexington). First time had coffee in US after 11 months. Had a French Vanilla Frapachino (dont even know the spelling, its from Starbucks). Got addicted to it in the first sip itself.
Picked up a new guy from Hyderabad on SUnday. Found out that this guy is innocent. But he had a great first day experience. We took some cool speakers and shelves from trash for our apartment (Hey what do u think!! Its not easy living in US as a starter).
This week did some normal stuff. My computer got infected with adaware and spyware (I was a bit lonely and went through these odd american sites and all of a sudden some adult popup came up). My virus detector gave a blare all of a sudden and thats it spyware infestation.
Planned my experiments and this time found out I got good patterns in my samples. Verified them with the lab microscope. Was happy with that. My Smokys experience enticed me to buy a camera and so I decided to check some deals. Found some great deals on the net. Just before pressing the verify to place order button Ramu (my new roommate) came into my mind and since he came 3 days ago from India I got into the act of converting stuff into rupees. My heart went bizarre and finally pressed my mind to wait for some more time. Still I'm aiming for the Panasonic SLR type.
Played basketball for two days during my routine workout. It was a good change and my arm feels strong. Checked my weight and found out that I am reaching a saturated level of around start 70's. Other than these my life was routine. Expecting some new comers and fresh faces to throw the light around me. Still am in the dilemma to whether go for election next year or not. And finally I feel lonely coz none read my blog and even if someone does I dont see a reply. Seems like this finally turned out to be my personal diary instead of a public bulletin board about my life. I wish I can go back to the time when I was happy.
Still got lotz of time to play with. Let me finish it coz am becoming Nostalgic. What will the future birng me this week??
The Otherside of Town
The children as I learnt later from my bro and his friend were not their kids but actually children from foster homes and runaway toddlers. When I asked them why they wanted to have these children, one nigger replied 'its for the Fucking greenie'. I dint understand what he said and I looked at my bro. My face was painted with a big question (I guess with the green color the nigger indicated). My bro instantly understood my question and replied 'Greenie means Dollars'. He cleared my mind with a concept which I never knew existed in the States. He said that these communities were considered by the US govt as deprieved class. These people were given some wild priviledges that every month they need to pay only 15 bucks for their rent and half their utility bills. Further for every family the government gives 800 bucks for food each month. The best part is that for every child a family has the govt pays an extra 700 bucks. Then my bro startled me saying that the women whom you met a minute ago has 23 children and thats for the money. How cruel can a person be???
During the time I was trying to resuscitate from the horror I had just encountered, many other people came in and did their wacky shopping. One guy around 20s came in for Jordan shoes. He saw the shoes and after finding out they costed $140, he started scowling in his usual language of F's with my bros friend. I expected him to beat the life out of him. But my bros friend returned the favor with an equivocal language and skill.
Later I decided to stand out for a while coz the shop had too much of a smoke caused by the cigar fanatics huffing and puffing like a smoked steam engine. (learnt that there were 62 varieties of cigars and that the pineapple flavor is considered the most profitable cigar type). So when I stood out I was world watching. My eyes met a group of men and women sitting on a park bench and its nearby ground.
I don't think of myself as the type of person to find enjoyment in the mere existence of a group of people, just because they look different. But there was something strange about low community black people that just gets my goat. It's not just me either, almost everyone I know gets frightened at the sight of a black person. They looked really frightening, and who doesn't like someone who perpetually looks jolly. But their bantering seemed that they dint care about the outside world or about the way the world looks at them. The group was having fun in their own way. They were jeering with joy. Each one had a bottle of beer in his or her hand, mouth filled with 32 teeth which were the only other white regions in their body other than their eyes. They were singing with the usual F words with ease. They fought against each other occasionally, ran against each other, teased every women in the group, gave a cheerfull compliment to onroad passers, greeted children with sarcasm, booed old people with greetings and finally made a fool of themselves to their friends. It was a strange and admirable sight. Finally I got sick of it that I went back into the shop. To my suprise my bro was about to leave.
Finally I was relieved from this Black wonderland and taken to the car lot where I met the complete opposite of what I saw like 5 minutes ago. I wont call it the opposite world, it was the normal community one would encounter in US. Looked at the cars and finally drove 4 of them, sorted 2 and finally decided upon one.
This experience has changed the way I think of this land of opportunities. Every country has its own drawbacks. The people I had seen are made lazy by the government. They dont beg, but they smuggle drugs. They are not educated not coz they dint have the chance but coz they are supposed to be kept like that by the higher class. The world is a strange place. It might be made small by technology but it never can be clasped by the human mind. There are just certain things in the world which cant be taken that easily by the heart either.
Lets see how much more would I see in this world before I lay my soul.

Hat trick
I wasn't born normal like other kids (nice start). I was 4.80 kgs. I was healthy more than enough and I was fat and chubby. It took me 22 years for me to lose my childhood cholestrol!! :-)
During these 22 years sports has been my passion. I had played soccer not because of fun and friends but because of its spirit. I was lucky enough to get chances of being the goalie my entire life. I had dived, rolled, jumped, why even ran to save certain good goals in my life. But after coming to the States, I made some friends from all continents. I have friends from Ghana, China, Japan, Bangladesh, Korea, Brasil, Sudan, Saudi and much more.
I had the honor of playing with these intercontinental players like a month ago. The best thing was I started as a defender and guess what, I defended like hell. There was this big Brasil guy whom I pushed and dieshevelled and did all kinds of strange stuff to protect my goal. I was appreciated by everyone in the team. Everything goes to my ability to understand concepts, strategies and ideas while playing Fifa 2006 in playstation. Thats how I learnt what true soccer is. Then like a week ago, I started again as the defender, but more likely as a Central Defensive player. I kept oscillating between midfield and defense all the time. I gave a cross so good in that game that we scored a goal at the crucial moment.
But today since there were less players, I had the opportunity to start as a right forward along with Reynolds (Ghanian and my lab senior) who was the left forward. As expected I was horrible in making a fake move and every time the defender read my mind. I would say I was like Peter Crouch in the England team. Then Reynolds engraved my mind with some eye opening tips that immediately I followed it and scored a solo goal. Then 2 minutes later he lofted the ball from his left to the left corner. I ran about 15 yards dived and nudged the ball into the goal with two defenders sliding past me. The opponents equalised soon. Then I was hell tired that I played midfield for some time and thats when I gave two pinpoint crosses to Reynolds who converted them to easy goals. After first half I was fine and again went to attacking position. My hat trick was an easy one as Kausthav did the solo work in central midfield assissted by Reynolds. He passed me the ball and I just tapped it in the sloppily guarder goal. The score read 9-9. (Hehehehe, sorry to break u this late. Come on guys think about it. Graduates played the game) We decided to go for golden goal rule. The opponents gave pressure on our defence. I ran from forward to right back, intercepted the cross, tapped the ball over the opponent forward, ran 40 yards and gave Reynolds a high volley which he took control and kicked mid air. Suprisingly the opponent goalie got a hand to it, gathered the ball and kicked it so long that the opponent forward socred a goal. We lost by figures but all won by hearts. Final score 9-10. Reynolds socred 6. I scored the remaining 3 in our team. Opponent striker scored 3, midfielder 2, owngoal 2, Right mid 1, left mid 1 and centre back 1. Who cares about the final score. It was just fun, real hope of survival, a game of exhaltation, a revival of my self. I did the unbelievable (Even I dint believe it). That what counts.
Got 4 more years to play this game and everyday is gonna be a new game. Lets see what happens.
Jai Hindh!!
