If the idea of starting a blog scares you, don't worry. This post will give you a little inspiration and explanation about the process, as well as some reassurance that every blog starts small and has the potential to bloom.
Why should I start a blog? Who'd read it anyway?
I asked myself those same questions. The fact you're reading this proves people actually read blogs.
Why should I bother? Shouldn't I stick to my real writing?
I also wondered about this. I worried that blogging would be just another distraction from the real work I'm trying to do (writing my first novel). But, just as an athlete cross-trains, blogging keeps your writing muscles warm and ready. Sure, you can distract yourself with thousands of non-writing tasks, like Facebook, laundry, TV, eating, organizing photos…or you can add blogging as another way to strengthen your writing.
Blogs are like roses. With time, attention, and care, blogs, like roses, have the potential to grow stronger and touch many people in different ways. When you first start blogging, you might struggle with the thorny "newness" of it all; as you cultivate it, you'll develop your unique variety, watching it grow before your eyes.
Which varieties are best?. Some simply look beautiful. Others bloom and die quickly from neglect. The truly great bloggers are in it for the long haul, knowing the benefits come with time, determination and a passion for what they're working on.
Pick something you like to write about…something you know…and you're set. Nothing's too obscure. In February 2010, Google reported 88 billion searches per month, so there's bound to be someone somewhere looking for what you've got to say.
Don't worry. You don't have to be afflicted with hypergraphia (the uncontrollable urge to write) to find time to blog. Set your own pace. Twice a month is a good starting goal.
And sharing is what blogging is all about. Whether you're imparting advice, showcasing your writing talent, cataloging family history, recording the events that your children or grandchildren or students go through…it's all worthwhile stuff that other curious humans want to know about. Keep your ideal reader in mind when you're blogging. Think about him or her stumbling onto your blog and saying, "Now that's what I'm talking about. I was looking for something like this."
Each blog entry is a chance to connect with another human being, to share a common circumstance or impart wisdom or perspective. Write confidently, knowing you're able to do that. Everyone is. All you have to do is start.
Blogging's good for you!
According to Scientific American, there are health benefits to blogging. I also
really enjoyed this blog post by Ricardo Sanchez of On Techies, called
"Blog More. It is Good For You".
I love working with WordPress because it's so intuitive. It takes minutes to set up a blog. Then, once you commit a few hours to playing with the buttons and learning your way around the dashboard, you'll be up and running.
I know you might be scared to start a blog. I was, too. When I finally jumped in, it felt just like getting a new cell phone: exciting and new at first, then maddeningly frustrating learning all the new features. You just want to scrap the whole effort and go back to life as it was. But hang in there. I found these links easy and essential to setting up my blog:
Once you've written a post (or entry), don't forget: people need to find it! That's what TAGS are for. Just think about TAGS as the words people will use to search for your blog. For instance, for this post, I used the following tags:
Benefits of blogging
Why should I blog?
Why should I bother blogging?
Is blogging real writing?
How to start a blog?
I'm scared to start a blog
How do I start a blog?

Here's one of the most helpful posts I've read about increasing traffic to your blog. My new favorite thing is linking your posts to blog carnivals, which collect and link blogs of similar topics, styles, etc. for readers to enjoy.
You've got questions about blogging? I did, too. Maybe this virtual Q&A will help answer some:
Q: How long should a post be?
A: Brevity is key (I'm still working on that one), but pack your post with helpful info if possible. Add links, pictures, opinions, ideas, questions, surveys. Make your readers want to come back for more.
Q: How long does it take to get followers to a blog?
A: Patience, patience. It takes time and consistency. One extremely helpful activity is to check out other blogs, and leave comments on the ones you like. It's polite blog ettiquette to reciprocate a visit with one of your own. Leaving a comment is always appreciated. Here's my analogy: Every visit to my blog feels like a visit from Santa Claus; every comment left on my blog feels like Santa stayed, had some cookies, and left a note.
Q: Isn't a blog just like an online diary that you're sharing with the world? Isn't that weird?
A: I thought the same thing at first. "What could I possibly share that other people will want to read?" Ask yourself, "What's my goal?" Do you want to show you're an excellent writer? Knowledgeable about a topic? Capable of organizing issues into a comprehensive format? Willing to update regularly? If you answered yes to at least two of those questions, you're ripe for blogging.
Q: What if I make a mistake and the whole world reads it?
A: The good news is, the whole world won't see your blog unless you know how to target the whole world (or your name is Facebook). If you make a mistake, you can always go back in and change your post. Nothing's set in stone. You can edit or delete a post (minutes or months) after you've written it. The bad news is, once someone reads it, they've read it, and that's that. But be brave. Everyone has something worth sharing.
Q: What separates good bloggers from bad bloggers.
A: No real answer here. Every blogger is different. Some bloggers are prolific and make me extremely envious…but that doesn't mean they're better bloggers than others. They just post more often.
In my opinion, good bloggers share things you'll want to share with others. That, quite simply, is the distinguishing characteristic between blogs and traditional diaries.
Q: What if I don't want my mom to read my blog?
A: Then don't give her the link.
Q: What if she finds it anyway?
A: Lie and tell her it's not you.
Q: There are so many other bloggers out there with thousands of followers, professional photographs, eloquent words, and all the time in the world to write. I work full time, want to blog occasionally, and don't have the slightest clue where to begin.
A: First, they all started from zero, too. If you want to build a huge blog or a massive following, you're already doing the right research for it. However, I think a great blogger does more with his/her life than just blog. You've got to live life, breathe the air, be with people, and not just sit at your computer day and night accumulating posts.
And as far as where to begin, just follow the tutorials mentioned above. It's a process, but little by little, you'll get the hang of it, and soon you'll have a blog with archives and followers and — most of all — a stronger sense of your own voice as a writer.
Good luck, and keep me posted on how it goes. I'd love to hear how your cultivation progresses.

Hi Andi,
Yes mate, i get a check up done once or twice a year at my GP's, which includes a panel of blood work (due to the health issues i had/have), i just asked for the extra test which my doc was fine with. I would see no harm in asking your GP for to get your test levels checked:)

There's no two ways about it: I've never seen a pump like BBB's Oval Integrate Mini Pump before. With its slender concave shape, the design is simply unique, and undeniably intriguing.
So let's have a closer look.
The concave shape of the barrel allows the pump to be attached direct to the frame without the need for separate pump clips or a bottle-cage-mounted holder. A good idea in principle, but this assumes your frame tubes are cylindrical or ovoid - at least in the area where you want to fix the pump. In most cases, assuming you've got two bottle cages, this means putting the pump on the underside of the top- tube, but that's only possible if your back brake cable runs along the upper side.
Once you've got over that hurdle, the pump is secured by two nylon straps with Velcro tabs. Fitting the pump before a test-ride, I couldn't get the Velcro straps tight enough, and the pump rattled very slightly. There are small rubber studs on the pump to prevent damage to the frame, but these seemed not totally effective at stopping movement. Actually, they're not rubber, but something called Kraton, which is also used on things like knife handles and golf clubs. All good stuff; perhaps if these studs were bigger, the rattling wouldn't occur.
Having said that, the BBB website indicates that the pump comes with a rubber strap, rather than the nylon straps that came with our test model. This should help keep the pump tight against the frame. I got round the problem by fixing the pump onto my frame with insulation tape. Employing the same technique, you could also possibly attach the pump to a seat-tube or down-tube, thereby avoiding the need for a top-tube with cable on the upper side.
The Oval Integrate pump comes in three sizes. A true mini version (230mm), a large version (430mm) and a medium (330mm) which we're testing here. The medium version seems to be a good compromise and avoids the issues common to all minipumps (low weight but takes all day to get a tyre up to pressure) and full-sized pumps (get the tyre up quickly, but weigh a lot and don't fit many modern frames). The slim-line design of the Oval Integrate also compares well against some other medium-sized pumps which are bulky and spoil the lines of a nice bike.
Medium or not, the concave shape of the barrel inevitably means it has a smaller capacity than a cylinder the same diameter, so it still takes a while to get a road tyre up to pressure. In the road.cc lab, it took 220 thrusts on the medium sized pump to get a 700x23 tyre up to 100psi. And the last 10psi were a bit of an effort to get in - maybe not surprising, as the pump's maximum psi is given as 115psi. If you're using it for get-you-home emergency situations, then 70psi will be fine and much easier to attain. And if you're touring or commuting and normally run your tyres at around 70psi anyway, then all this high pressure talk is academic.
Whatever pressure you go for, pumping is made more comfortable by the shape of the handle, which swivels out to form a broad pad in the palm of your hand (and also has a covering of Kraton), although if you don't hold it firmly it rocks on its pivot, which is annoying and actually makes pumping harder. The piston also rocks a little in the barrel when you pump hard, but the seals seem good, and there's no sign of air escaping. The pump has a direct push-on fit with a small lock/unlock lever, so no hose to screw separately onto the valve.
The Oval Integrate's unusual design and attachment technique takes a while to get your head around, and you need to make sure you've got the pump tightly and safely fixed to your frame, but if you don't like genuine mini pumps (because they're too slow) or some other medium-sized pumps (because they're too bulky and look ugly on your bike), or full-size pumps (because they're too heavy or don't fit your frame), then the medium-sized Oval Integrate might be a good option to consider.
All the Oval Integrate pumps are available in black or silver, with the medium retailing at around £25 in bike shops, and around £20 at the usual on-line stores. I was going to say 'this is a fair price compared to other similar products'. But as there's nothing else like it, I'll just have to say it's a fair price, period.
Unusual design solves some dilemmas if you're looking for a balance between weight, style and efficiency.
road.cc test report
Make and model: BBB Oval Intregrate Mini Pump
Size tested: Silver
Tell us what the product is for, and who it's aimed at. What do the manufacturers say about it? How does that compare to your own feelings about it?
The BBB website summarises the pump's attributes in some handy bullet points, including:
Provides for easy attachment in various positions.
Included clip-on bracket with rubber strap, ideal for direct attachment on your bicycle.
Lightweight 6061 T6 aluminum barrel.
Fits both Presta and Schrader valves.
The construction feels OK, but not bomproof compared to some other pumps we've tested.
The shape of the barrel is neat, but it inevitably impares capacity, so it takes a while to get a tyre up to high pressure (around 100psi). If you're aiming for medium pressure (around 70psi) then the pump is totally fine.
Because the construction doesn't appear totally top-notch, I'd guess this pump would not survive daily use in your workshop. But as a tool for emergency use when you're out on the road, it'll be fine.
At a meagre 112g, this is a very good weight for a pump of this size.
Did you enjoy using the product? Yes
Would you consider buying the product? Personally, no. I use co2 cannisters with a minipump for backup on my sportive bike, and a full-length pump on my training bike.
Would you recommend the product to a friend? Yes, if they were looking for a pump that reached a happy compromise between weight, style and efficiency

After some time and several canvases, many people move onto experimenting with different stitches and embellishments to create texture and dimension. Creative liberties can be taken, and some needlepointers find as much joy in painting canvases as stitching. It's fascinating to talk with long-time needlepointers about their own evolution in the craft, what they stitch, and the many paths up the needlepointing mountain.
Clementine Hunter designs at the Quarter Stitch.
Step into a shop to get swept up in the matter. Each store has its own stitching style, theories, opinions, and advice; available canvas designs reflect varying demographics, but there are always staples, especially Louisiana's iconic images: food, music, Mardi Gras, architecture, and symbols (think fleur de lis) by local artists like Jude Designs (who has the exclusive on Tabasco designs), Annie and Co., and Shelia Dial. Typically, walls are plastered top to bottom with stunning, hand-painted canvases, and there are racks filled with skeins of colorful fibers, scissors and other bits and bobs. It's a bit like being in an art museum with exhibits of past and present to wander through—gawking, laughing, and gasping at all the interesting needlepoint canvases to be stitched and finished. There is old and new. There are people with whom to engage. It's fun.
And because it is the climate of the time, there is the internet, another rich source for images, social media groups, stitch guides, tutorials, fibers, and of course, a zillion canvases. There's a lot of information out there, along with a growing group of young designers and stitchers taking a stab at needlepoint, entrepreneurship, and finding tangible entertainment in a digital world. These modern makers are diving into canvases with contemporary style, quips, colors, and creativity, grabbing moments of zen sewing a Warhol-esque image of Tupac or a Bowie-inspired belt, reviving a threatened art through a new lens and adding some humor, leaving everyone in stitches.

In July, Heilman and the DCI researchers disclosed an alleged vulnerability in Curl that, they said, would effectively let anyone forge IOTA transactions. The IOTA developers wrote back that the researchers had
misunderstood Curl
, saying, for example, that the possibility of finding cryptographic collisions—the point at which a cryptographic function is
generally considered broken
—was intentional. According to IOTA cofounder Sergey Ivancheglo, the "practical attack" demonstrated by the DCI researchers
only works in a limited number of improbable situations
that would affect a negligible number of IOTA users, mostly thanks to a closed-source and centralized solution called the "
blue womens nike free 60zf3n
" that helps secure the network. Because the Coordinator is closed-source, Heilman and the MIT researchers couldn't account for its effect on their attacks. The IOTA team also complained that the flaws identified in Curl by the DCI team were actually "anti-scam copycat mechanisms" in case someone tried to steal IOTA's code, somehow.
The emails reveal that the teams failed to arrive at a consensus regarding the nature or reality of the vulnerabilities in Curl. Eventually, the conversation degenerated to insults. IOTA co-founder David Sønstebø accused Heilman of "pushing this for his own gain," asked Narula if she was sober, and wondered "what kind of academic rushes to the press before peer review?" Narula wrote on August 5, "If anyone personally insults a member of my team, we will have to cease communication."
On August 7, IOTA changed its hash function from Curl to Keccak citing the upcoming DCI publication, and a month later Heilman and the DCI researchers published their work.
"We made it very clear at the beginning of the email chain that if they stopped being professional and civil we would cease communication," the DCI team wrote Motherboard in an email. "They stopped being professional and civil."
Now that the conversations that led to the algorithm change have been made public, high-profile cryptographers have urged people to avoid IOTA based on how the team responded to Heilman and the DCI researchers' attempt at disclosure. One popular cryptocurrency investing Twitter account, "360Trader" tweeted that it would never buy IOTA, adding, "When the cryptographers are telling everybody to leave... well…" On the other hand, cryptocurrency fans have come to IOTA's defense because the current Keccak algorithm is thought to be safe.

The Baby Doll is a real wild-child,but is happy to reseed only sparsely here and there in clusters of one,two or three plants.In addition to these volunteers,my mom had her main bed that she "refreshed" every other year. And whenever she pulled a weed she usually stuck one in that spot; they were quite polite and never took over. Like snowflakes,no two flower's markings are alike,not even on the same plant. They top out from 5 to 10 inches,so they make a nice understory for tall plants as well as a border in sunny gardens.

text: Fated Farm Bill in Memory, GOP Newbies Eye Federal Shutdown September 17, 2013 09:56 AM Tweet TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By Bloomberg Email If Republican Tom Massie's push to dismantle President Barack Obama's health-care law shuts down the government and costs him his U.S. House seat, he'd happily return to his solar-powered home back in Kentucky with his kids. That's making life difficult for Republican House Speaker John Boehner. Their opposition doomed a farm bill and forced Republican leaders to rewrite it. The red-haired Massie, who has two engineering degrees and 24 patents, represents a new breed of Republican in Washington: recently elected to the House, not bound by fealty to leaders and unmoved by the usual tools of enforcing party discipline. This group, not large enough to be a majority though big enough to prevent one, is shaping the course of Congress in ways not seen since Republicans won the House in 1994. Now they're using their influence to raise the specter of the first federal government shutdown since that era. Massie is prepared for whatever happens, saying life was much better before he got elected to Congress in 2012. "The last thing I fear is going back and leading that same life," Massie said in an interview. House lawmakers return to Washington tomorrow and have just five scheduled working days to pass legislation to keep the government funded past Sept. 30, the end of the federal fiscal year. That job became more difficult last week when Massie and other first- and second-term lawmakers banded together to reject a spending proposal from Boehner's leadership team, heightening the risk that the government may shut down though it may cause a political backlash from other Republicans. House leaders rescheduled a budget vote for this week, although they haven't specified which day. 'Complete Obstructionists' "Those who are newly elected to Congress might not realize the long-term implication this could have for the Republican Party," said Joe Gaylord, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich's political adviser during the shutdowns in 1995 and 1996. "The overwhelming sentiment of the electorate is opposed to complete obstructionists. That's the way they'll be seen." None of these new Republicans were there for those shutdowns, and they tend to play down the political risks. Massie and others say they can shift the blame to the Democratic-controlled Senate if Republicans craft a reasonable plan with enough money to keep the lights on after Sept. 30. "We were elected to repeal and replace Obamacare," said Representative Dennis Ross, a Florida Republican elected in 2010. "We've got to offer an alternative for the sake of our credibility." Sheer Numbers The clout of these congressional newcomers comes in part from their sheer numbers -- close to half, or 103, of the 233 Republicans in the House have served three years or less, according to data compiled by Bloomberg News. A total of 41 House Republicans, about 18 percent of the caucus, have repeatedly voted against their leadership this year, according to the data compiled by Bloomberg. Many are aligned with the anti-tax Tea Party. They're newcomers not just to Congress, but to public life. Of the 31 House Republican freshmen, 17 had never before served in any public office, according to the House Republican Conference office. About half of the roughly 80 Republican freshmen in 2010 were in their first elected office, Representative Greg Walden, chairman of the House Republican transition team that year, told Fox News at the time. There's no clear leader in the group, which instead forms small coalitions from issue to issue. In addition to Massie, who was counting votes against the Republican leadership plan last week, influential voices include Tom Graves of Georgia, who introduced an alternative spending plan last week, and North Carolina freshman Mark Meadows. Scalise, Jordan They work closely with longer-tenured House members Steve Scalise of Louisiana, chairman of the Republican Study Committee, a group of more than 160 lawmakers that promotes small government, and Jim Jordan of Ohio, who carries a 100 percent lifetime rating from the American Conservative Union. Among 233 House Republicans, Boehner can't lose more than 16 votes to pass a spending measure, or he'll need help from Democrats who oppose defunding the health-care law. If he can't command enough Republican votes, he could face a tough speakership re-election in early 2015. Without support from this band of rogue Republicans, a House vote on a transportation funding bill was called off. Their opposition doomed a farm bill and forced Republican leaders to rewrite it. Syria Skepticism They also made their voices heard in opposition to Obama's call for congressional authorization for the use of military force against Syria. All but 12 of the 103 recent arrivals serving three years or fewer said publicly that they would vote no on Syria, compared with 24 of the 130 members serving longer, according to the data compiled by Bloomberg. "What's great about our leadership is they welcome other ideas," Graves, who was elected in 2010, said in an interview. Often the leadership doesn't have a choice. These members exist largely outside the reach of Boehner of Ohio and House Majority Leader Eric Cantor of Virginia. Previous House speakers wielded influence by stripping rogue members of committee assignments or rewarding good behavior with hometown spending projects known as earmarks. Those actions aren't as meaningful for Boehner. The anti-tax Tea Party members want less spending and show little interest in leadership. Targeted spending projects, or earmarks, are banned. With support from groups like Club for Growth and Heritage Action for America, these Republicans don't need to rely on the fundraising power that House leaders can offer. The two groups last week endorsed Graves's spending plan. 'Key Role' "Conservatives grind the House to a halt over Obamacare," was the subject line of a Sept. 12 press release crediting ForAmerica, a Reston, Virginia-based group that advocates for smaller government, with "playing a key role" in the fight. The group, led by Republican activist Brent Bozell, specializes in using social media to engage voters. It helped coordinate an "Exempt America from Obamacare" rally outside the U.S. Capitol last week and claimed responsibility for more than 40,000 phone calls in three weeks to the offices of Boehner, Cantor and other Republicans who it said "refused to get behind the effort to defund Obamacare." "All the Republicans have to do is pass a bill funding everything but Obamacare and then go home," Bozell said in an interview. "The politics are very clear. Republicans promised this, they should deliver." Primary Challenge For many Republicans, their biggest concern isn't a challenge from a Democrat, because most House seats are drawn to favor the party in power. Their worry is a primary rival from the right, so standing up to party leaders is a way to win favor with deep-pocketed, conservative-leaning groups. Republicans head into this week with no specific plan to avert a shutdown. Cantor shifted the Republican strategy on Sept. 12 from a plan to defund the health-care law to a move to delay its implementation being pushed by Graves and others. Graves said one of the biggest differences between his legislation and the first spending proposal from leadership was procedural. The Republican leaders' plan would have let Senate Democrats strip out a provision defunding the health-care law and pass the spending measure for Obama's signature. The Graves bill would require any Senate changes to be sent back to the House for passage, increasing the chances there would be no government funding by Sept. 30. Graves said today that his proposal has support from 59 co-sponsors, including 38 elected since 2010. 'Semantic Trick' Massie -- who grew up in the Bluegrass State before heading to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he collected two engineering degrees -- called Boehner's proposal "hocus pocus" and a "semantic trick." "If our members genuinely believed that our leadership does want to defund Obamacare and is willing to stake some political capital on that effort, then we would entertain other ways of achieving that," said Massie, wearing a "Liberty" pin on his lapel, just under another of the U.S. flag. "There's a lack of trust between the leadership and the conference on this issue." --Editors: Jodi Schneider, Robin Meszoly To contact the reporter on this story: Michael C.

An exotic Hindu Temple standing on a giant rock overlooking the vast ocean on the horizon and soft pearly white sands embracing the waves coming in onto the shore; no this is not Tanah Lot, icon of Bali, nor any other beach on the fabled island, this is a spectacular sight at Balekambang Beach, situated at the southern coast of Malang Regency, East Java.
Balekambang Beach is located at the Srigonco Village, Bantur sub-district, about 70 Kilometers south from the city of Malang, or approximately 170 Kilometers from the capital of East Java, Surabaya. The beach retreat is a hidden gem among East Java's tourist attractions dominated by Mount Bromo as main icon and the town of Batu its ideal mountain resort.
Here, a vast white sandy beach stretches almost endlessly for 2 kilometers. The sight and sound of raging waves hitting the shore present its own unique beauty. In the shallow shores, visitors can swim or just play around in the waters, however, swimming beyond the marked red flags is not allowed for this beach is notorious for its swirling undertow. The beach is also decorated with lines of trees on the shore that perfectly shelter visitors from the scorching sun. Thus, making it a perfect place to lay back and release the tensions of daily city life.
The beach is highlighted with three rocky islands named after the characters in the shadow puppets stories: Anoman Island, Wisanggeni Island, and Ismoyo Island. Wisanggeni Island is connected to the shore and to Ismoyo Island by a 100 meters concrete bridge. Sitting dramatically on the Ismoyo Island is the Amerta Jati Temple or also simply known as Ismoyo Temple. Bearing distinct Hindu characteristic similar to those in Bali, the temple on the rock and its connecting bridge creates a picturesque scenery overlooking the vast blue ocean. When the sun sets over the horizon, the silhouetted temple over the brilliantly colorful sky generates an even more spectacular sight.
The Amerta Jati or Ismoyo Temple was built in 1985 by the regent of Malang at the time, Edi Slamet. Modelled after the famous Tanah Lot temple in Bali, the temple is a sacred place for Hindu followers where various religious rituals take place. One of the most highlighted rituals that take place here is the Jalani Dhipuja ritual. The ritual ceremony is conducted three days before the ritual of Nyepi as a part of the series of celebrating the Saka or Hindu New Year. The main highlight of the jalani Dhipuja rituals is the Larung Jolen, where offerings are given to the sea as a symbol of gratitude to God for all His blessings, and to ward off future misfortunes.
Despite its secluded location, Balekambang Beach has all the necessary facilities, from toilets and showers, snacks and food stalls, restaurants, lifeguards, souvenirs shops, to modest inns. So, whether it's to bathe under the sun, observing the picturesque temple, or simply to immerse in the beauty of nature, Balekambang Beach is truly a place worth visiting.
Many of those with adventurous soul prefer to set up tents on the beach for its sheer sensations, but if you prefer a nicer please to stay, there are several modest inns located within the location of Balekambang Beach itself, with prices ranging from IDR 150.000 to IDR 200.000. If you prefer starred hotels or other fully facilitated accommodations, then you must stay within the city of Malang.
Due to its secluded location on the southern coast in the Malang regency, it is best to rent a car by the day from Malang or Surabaya. The trip from Surabaya to Malang will take approximately 2 to 3 hours depending on traffic conditions. From downtown Malang, it is about another 2 to 3 hours drive before you can get to Balekambang beach. There are two alternative routes to reach Balekambang Beach. The first is by taking the Malang-Kepanjen route which continues to Gondanglegi, Pagelaran, Bantur, Sri Gonco Village, until you reach Balekambang Beach.
The second is the Malang-Bululawang route passing Gadang and Kendalpayak until you reach Gondanglegi where the route follows the first one. Directional signs are already available from the city of Malang and all the major intersections along the way, so you don't need to worry. Please note that nearing the location (from the Srigonco Village to Balekambang Beach) the trip may get a bit bumpy and the roads narrow, completed with both sharp and winding turns. The scenery is decorated with nothing but teak trees on each side, until you reach the entrance to the beach.

Thread: New to the new board
New to the new board
Hi everyone.
I thought I'd introduce myself.
I started watching football back in the late 1990s as a 10 year old. Being in New Zealand we only get the ESPN games, and that meant at the time, Packers and Broncos. Favre was the first NFL player I got to follow and root for.
Seeing as it wasn't regular I really didn't get into it.
Then I watched Super bowl 35 and instantly fell in love with the Ravens. I guess some might call that 'bandwagoning'. I can say though that I've supported the team through the good and bad.
In fact the Ravens are my 2nd favourite team, second only to the national Rugby team, the All Blacks.
Thanks to GamePass I get to watch the games when I get off work instead of being at the mercy of ESPN.
Anyways, I hope for a good season and to discussing and celebrating with fellow Ravens fans. :)

Manager Dean Saunders is hopeful of adding experienced Premier League duo Pascal Chimbonda and El-Hadji Diouf to his Doncaster squad in the coming days.
The former Wales striker saw his new charges pick up their fourth point from his second game in charge in the 1-1 draw with Hull, and is now looking to recruit some fresh faces. Rovers now have five points and were watched from the stands by former Wigan and Tottenham full-back Chimbonda, who is a free agent after being released by QPR.
"I spoke to him (Chimbonda) before the game and will speak to him afterwards," Saunders said, after watching Simon Gillett cancel out Martyn Waghorn's opener.
"I haven't discussed the ins and outs but he's obviously interested or he wouldn't be here. To sign a player like him at this club would be brilliant. He's gone for millions and millions in his career and it would be brilliant.
"I will discuss with him what he wants to do. He looks fit and is a class player and if I could get him in he would make such a difference to the whole club."
On Diouf, Saunders added: "I'm hopeful it might happen. When it appeared on television yesterday I thought other clubs would have come out of the woodwork and it looks like that might have happened. I did speak to him. Players like that don't come around very often and if we do get them, they'll be short-term, probably benefiting us and them."
Waghorn's first goal for Hull after Neil Sullivan failed to claim Matt Fryatt's cross was the main highlight, but the Tigers impressed, keeping the ball in a fashion more accustomed to Doncaster under their recently-sacked manager Sean O'Driscoll.
Rovers' robust approach paid off after the break, though, with Gillett getting on the end of Jon Parkin's knockdown - the latter putting his renowned burly presence to use against his former employers. Doncaster's direct style was not lost on City manager Nigel Pearson.
"Route one Doncaster; not something you thought you'd hear anyone say before the start of the season," Pearson said. "They're fighting for points and showed a lot of spirit. They bombarded us for a spell and we didn't track a run which cost us. But you have to give them some credit.
"They were second best in the first half and had to come up with an answer. They've had a difficult start to the season, need points, a new manager has come in and they've had a response."

text: Mentana to Noto trains might be a good value for money solution: travelling in Italy by train is often rather cheap and faster than taking a bus indeed Trains leave from Monterotondo-Mentana and arrive at Noto every about 6 hours on average. If travelling with Trenitalia, you need to know the Mentana to Noto train schedule: the first train leaves at 06:32, while the last ride is at 20:32. A Mentana to Noto train cost about 169.25 €. But how long is the train ride from Mentana to Noto? Your journey takes about 14 hours on average.

BRISTOL, Tenn. – The King University men's soccer team has undergone some changes this spring as John Miglarese was named head coach in January. Miglarese has been hard at work during the spring practices and fall camp to change the culture of the men's soccer program.
Miglarese is striving to bring back some stability to a once nationally prominent King men's soccer program. Over the past four years, the Tornado have had three different coaches, and haven't found the success on the pitch, ending last season with a 3-14 overall record and 2-8 mark in Conference Carolinas play.
However, the Tornado won their final two games of the 2012 campaign, giving the Tornado a little momentum going into Miglarese's first year at the helm. The program isn't far removed from their last conference title and NAIA National Tournament appearance of 2008.
The challenges are different this time around, though, as the Tornado are in their fourth year of NCAA Division II membership, and third year as Conference Carolinas members.
King returns two of their top-three scorers from a season ago, senior Peter Griffith and junior Luis Alonso. Alonso led the Tornado with five goals to go along with one assist for a total of 11 points while Griffith netted four goals from his defender position to rank second on the team. King will also rely on junior midfielder Thomas Dube, who made 16 appearances, 12 starts a season ago, accounting for one goal and one assist.
The defensive end is the most experience side of the field for the Tornado, and should be led by senior Joshua Feener and junior Zachary Clark. Feener started all 17 games for the Tornado a season ago while scoring one goal and dishing out one assist. Feener also made nine starts and 10 appearances in goal for the Tornado while Clark started all 12 games in which he appeared.
"We've got Feener, who's a senior, David Eagan, who's a senior, and Zachary Clark, who's technically a senior, but he's got another year of eligibility, and then at times you'll see Peter [Griffith] in there, so at times you may see four seniors in the back line in some games, and that's going to be really important." Miglarese said.
At goalkeeper, Cameron Sauro returns after starting seven games as a freshman. Sauro will be pushed, however, as freshman Kari Sveinsson comes to King with considerable international experience from Iceland.
The roster will be rounded out with nine newcomers for the 2013 season, including two junior college transfers.
King was selected to finish eighth in the Conference Carolinas Preseason Coaches' Poll. Limestone College was selected to repeat as conference champions and Erskine College was picked to finish second.
The Tornado open the campaign on September 6 and 7 at the Lee University Tournament in Cleveland, Tenn. King will face host Lee on Friday night before taking on Shorter University on Saturday afternoon. The home opener is slated for Wednesday, September 11 against Tusculum College at 4:00 p.m., and the Tornado open Conference Carolinas play on Saturday, September 21 against Pfeiffer University at 4:00 p.m.

Reviewed By Eric M (LOS ANGELES, CA) Reviewed for a 2012 Nissan Pathfinder —5/6/2014 8:41 AM
First, no doubt light is brighter and is energy efficient. Just removing stock bulbs shows how hot they got. The set I installed came with spring assembly which is very clumsy and difficult to seat into the light prongs. I had a hard time figuring out how to remove the lens covers on the front overhead light so a little help with that would have been nice. Lastly, there are two pieces of two sided tape on the back of the lights but nowhere to stick them to so the light are angled.

Suffolk, ss Division of Administrative Law Appeals
Dept. of Public Health -Division of Health Care Quality,
v. Docket No. PHNA-08-712
Wilmaris Santana,
Appearance for Petitioner:
Joel Buenaventura, Esq.
Dept. of Public Health
Office of General Counsel
250 Washington Street, 2nd Floor
Boston, MA 02108
Appearance for Respondent:
Wilmaris Santana
182 Sargeant Street
Holyoke, MA 01040
Administrative Magistrate:
Sarah H. Luick, Esq.
By letter of October 8, 2008, Petitioner, Department of Public Health-Division Health Care Quality (DPH) issued to Respondent, Wilmaris Santana, a Notice of Right of Hearing in connection with an allegation of abuse made against her as a Certified Nurse Aide at Wingate & South Hadley Rehab in South Hadley, MA. She requested a hearing on this contemplated action. The case was referred to the Division of Administrative Law Appeals (DALA) for hearing. A pre-hearing conference was held December 11, 2008, and then a hearing was scheduled for May 7, 2009, at the offices of DALA, 98 North Washington Street, 4th Floor, Boston, MA. Petitioner appeared with its witnesses and ready to go forward, but neither Respondent nor any authorized representative for Respondent appeared. An Order To Show Cause was issued on May 7, 2009 to Respondent to explain by May 26, 2009 her absence from the hearing. (Exhibit "A") This was issued pursuant to the Standard Adjudicatory Rules of Practice and Procedure, 801 CMR 1.02 (10) (d). To date, no response has been made to the Order. No return of the Order to Show Cause as undeliverable mail to Respondent was received by DALA.
A hearing had previously been scheduled, and the day prior to the hearing, Respondent sought a continuance. She sent a written request noting how she had been in a motor vehicle accident. The continuance was granted and the new hearing date of May 7, 2009 was established. In the new Notice of Hearing, Respondent was warned that she would not be entitled to another continuance without proof from her doctor that she was physically unable to attend the hearing. (Exhibit "B")
Late in the afternoon on May 6, 2009, DPH forwarded another request for a continuance it had received from Respondent. As the reason for this request, she listed the motor vehicle accident and included a form filled out by a chiropractor on May 4, 2009. This form contained only the statement that the respondent is under the chiropractor's care, and to avoid aggravation of a health condition, he recommends that she be excused from "all work activity through May 10, 2009." (Exhibit "C")
This note was given consideration, but determined to be insufficient proof that a doctor found Respondent physically unable to attend the May 7, 2009 hearing. Thereafter, on May 6, 2009, messages were left by DALA using two telephone numbers in the file for Respondent, explaining that the respondent's request for a continuance was denied and that the hearing would go forward the next day. DPH was also given notice of this ruling on May 6, 2009. Both parties were sent a written denial of this continuance request as well. (Exhibit "D")
In light of this course of events, I conclude that Respondent has failed to appear and to prosecute her request for hearing. Therefore, Respondent's claim for an adjudicatory hearing is dismissed with prejudice, and the contemplated action of Petitioner is allowed. Petitioner shall take appropriate action in accordance with 42 USC 1396r (g)(1)(c).
Sarah H. Luick, Esq.
Administrative Magistrate
DATED: July 28, 2009

Time to change your thinking about time
In her second guest post, Dr. Robyn Odegaard discusses how shifting your mindset will improve your life and schedule for the better.
How many times a day do you hear or say (or even think), "I don't have time" or "I'm too busy."?
Our schedules have become such a huge part of our culture that "busy" has come to be an acceptable response to the question, "How are you?" When did we all become so lousy at time management that the default excuse "I haven't had time" began to be met with understanding nods and even with forgiveness for failure to deliver on promises?
Do not think that I am pointing fingers at anyone. I'm just as guilty of using the "no-time" excuse as anyone else is. To provide a remedy for this situation, I might suggest the practice of time management skills such as time blocking, keeping lists, and moving swiftly from one task to the next, but most likely you've heard it all before and it probably hasn't helped.
So instead, I'd like to share my views on how the way I've come to think and talk about time has changed my life (and has helped me prioritize my schedule) for the better.
Here is my discovery:
- We make time for things we consider important to ourselves, our boss, our co-workers, our teammates, our significant others, and our children
- Time is our most valuable and limited asset; once it is spent, we cannot get it back. Therefore, it is logical to assume that the things we spend time on are those most important to us. And the things we allow to fall by the wayside, because of time constraints, are less important, right? Hmm…well, maybe not.
Here is a subtle change I've made in my thinking, and the challenge I pose to you:
These days, instead of flippantly saying, "I haven't had time" and accepting the easy out it gives me, I've learned to say, "I haven't made that a priority."
This simple shift in emphasis never fails to give me a moment's pause. Gone is the easy, familiar excuse. Now, in its place, is the accountability I must confront: to commit myself to the things most important to me and to disregard or postpone the things less important.
If I can legitimately say without guilt or regret that a particular item or event on my list is not a genuine priority, then I know I can place it in the "no" category. On the other hand, if I do feel that nagging twinge one feels when putting off a task that needs to be completed, then I know that I must reconsider my priorities.
Each of us in life is allotted the same 24 hours in a day. The difference between owning the clock and having the clock own us comes down, I believe, to our mental approach.
Changing how we talk about time can change how we think about time and, ultimately, how we manage the time we've been given.
How might taking away the accepted excuse of not having enough time and admitting, "I haven't made that a priority," affect how you manage your schedule? What if someone were to say it to you?
Dr. Robyn Odegaard (aka Doc Robyn) is a nationally known speaker/consultant/writer who is passionate about meeting people where they are and helping them advance to where they want to be. She holds a doctorate in psychology and is the CEO of the Champion Performance Development (www.ChampPerformance.com) where she combines executive coaching, organizational development, sport psychology and her love for public speaking to show her clients how they can achieve greater success in every aspect of their lives.

Suing over an online review: is it ever a good idea?
Thanks to the internet and the rise of business reviews sites, dealing with customers has arguably never been more complicated.
Never before has it been more important to cultivate strong customer relationships and to find ways to parlay them into online reviews that, in some cases, can be powerful drivers of business.
PeopleBrowsr fights for its Twitter firehose
After Facebook, Twitter is arguably the highest-profile social network out there, and could conceivably follow in the footsteps of the world's largest social network with a public offering of its own in 2013.
Facebook and Twitter both face challenges. Facebook's most pressing challenge: how to monetize its billion-plus users. Twitter's most pressing challenge: how to transition from a communications platform provider to a media company.
Four things marketers can learn from the Papa John's $250m SMS spam lawsuit
How much does it cost to send a text message?
It's often less than a cent if you're a marketer sending in bulk, but U.S. pizza chain Papa John's could be forced to pay $1,500 a pop for 500,000 text messages its franchisees sent in 2010.
US likely to pursue antitrust case against Google: report
In 1998, the United States Department of Justice and 20 states filed a lawsuit against Microsoft alleging that the software giant abused a monopoly position in the market to dominate the market for web browsers.
The stakes were high. If it lost, Microsoft could have been forced to break itself into two parts. And even though it eventually settled under more favorable terms, the case against Microsoft is arguably the defining moment in the company's history.
UK judge: Samsung's Galaxy Tab is "not as cool" as the iPad
In the complicated world of intellectual property litigation, sometimes a loss is a win.
Just ask Apple, which failed to convince a UK high court judge to ban sales of Samsung's Galaxy Tab.
The disadvantage of funding: patent trolls
Many of the headlines relating to today's patent system absurdity involve big companies like Google, Oracle, Apple and Samsung. And for good reason: they have big money, and the most to gain (or lose) when it comes to patent disputes.
But patents are increasingly affecting smaller companies and upstarts, and not in a good way. In fact, it's getting so bad that startups raising capital might not want to celebrate their funding too loudly these days.
US judge keeps Samsung Galaxy Tab ban in place
In the patent war between two of the largest consumer electronics companies in the world, Samsung and Apple, Apple won another victory yesterday as US judge Lucy Koh kept in place a ban on sales of Samsung's Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablet.
What's more: last Friday, Judge Koh placed a ban on sales of one of Samsung's phones, the Galaxy Nexus.
Judge in Oracle-Google case: you cannot copyright an API
There's arguably never been a better time for technology companies and developers. The proliferation of billions of connected devices, coupled with the explosion of new platforms and services, has created countless business opportunities, many still yet to be exploited.
But thanks to increasingly complex litigation around intellectual property, namely patents, the technology industry has also arguably never had to deal with so many headaches.
Jury sides with Google in Oracle patent infringment suit
Google executives are probably breathing a sigh of relief today after a jury ruled that the search giant did not infringe upon Oracle's patents in the high-profile intellectual property battle being waged between two of the world's largest and richest technology companies.
The jury was tasked with determining whether Google was guilty of patent infringment on eight separate claims involving Android.
Yahoo CEO resigns amid resume scandal
When Scott Thompson decided to leave his post as President of PayPal to join Yahoo as CEO, it reportedly came as a shock to eBay CEO John Donahoe.
And it was a surprising move according to some industry observers.
After all, Thompson was ditching Ebay's fastest growing division to join a company that has been in decline.
It's a decision Thompson may regret for a long time.
Will the Oracle-Google lawsuit kill the API?
As Google and Oracle duke it out in court over claims that the search giant violated copyrights and patents now owned by Oracle in developing Android, it appears that the battle may have wide-ranging ramifications.
Yesterday, a jury decided that Google violated Oracle copyrights related to the organization and structure of Oracle's Java APIs, but was unable to decide whether Google had a valid fair use claim.
Perfect 10 sues Tumblr for copyright infringment
Publishing platform Tumblr's twenty-something CEO is fast learning that running a fast-growing company can be a tough job.
Last month, after telling AdAge that an advertising business model would be a "a complete last resort", David Karp, perhaps pressured by investors, announced that his company would begin selling ads.

Stella's girls
They've been close for years, now three modern mothers – Kate Hudson, Liv Tyler, Stella McCartney. And all similarly pedigreed. Kate is a regular with Stella at this event. This year, Stella brought two dates and dressed them both, naturally, in her designs.
Nothing super spectacular. She in fact went riskier than her muses. Don't really have feelings either way about the lace pantsuit but I like it more than I dislike it and do admire that after three kids, she has the body to work it.
More importantly though, this is about how much funner (funner should be a real word) it is to hang out with the girls on occasions like these than it is to be with the boy. Unless you married a gay in which case, yeah, totally the same. Straight dates can't be catty, they have no interest in cutting down that bitch over there who thinks she's better than everyone else and when did her ass get so low to ground? Also straight dates won't tell you if someone's been eyef-cking you for 10 minutes and straight dates don' help you open before discreetly drifting away to the bar.
Manslinger slings men but she keeps her women close. How can you not love this about Kate Hudson?
