wielding mini. But, the figure was replaced with a more "Bandit-y"
feel to it (the Pirate-y looking bandit was converted to the one with
hood and short sword).
I just replaced the photo online with the correct shot. And I looked
in our mold department - all 02677 D molds only have the "correct"
model (short sword).
** Please help in identifying this Reaper miniature - note that the dagger in the left hand was added by me **
Hmmmm... what to say about this miniature - first off it was a test bed for putting a name on the miniature - see below post - I added a scroll style on the front as the "official" name badge.
Then it was a test for some new Vallejo Game Color paints in the brown family which I picked up from Leesburg Hobbies. The matching colors were to GW's scorched brown, bestial brown, and bubonic brown to replace my dried up GW paint pots.
It started off alright as I primered in black. Then used a watered down scorched brown - the opacity was nice with the Vallejo and the results can be seen in the below post regarding the nameplates.
Next I used the bestial brown and I was rather disappointed with the coverage - it wasn't doing what I needed and required multiple layers - more effort than what I was wanting to give or expecting to have to do. I was hoping for more of a coverage experience that I was having with the scorched brown.
Building up to the next layer was bubonic brown and here's where I became really unhappy. If I watered down the paint, the opacity of the paint moved to the edges of the brush and I wasn't getting any coverage with the actual brush stroke - it looked like I was painting railroad tracks. I know it wasn't the brush as I'm painting with Windsor & Newton Series 7 - probably the finest line of brushes for miniature painting. Not watering down the paint is of course too thick and not a real option.
After battling with that for awhile I moved up and added a bit of Vallejo skull white to the mix and walla - beautiful brushstrokes - don't get it - but by that point in time I was overally frusturated - dabbed on some highlights and called it a day.

Sweater: Forever 21
Skirt: Forever 21
Shoes: Clark's
Folks universally love these knee socks and I have no idea where they came from. Which is a real shame because they are getting all kinds of stretched out in the heel area.
People do a lot of commenting on how Forever 21 clothes are "disposable" because they fall apart so quickly. I have plenty of years-old things from there, though, and none of my clothes ever fall apart. After just a few wears, however, this skirt is already super nubby. So maybe I should shut my fucking trap, huh?

At my job, I needed to know how to do a little upholstery but I didn't know how - so to rectify that problem I ordered some tools and a DVD to teach me how to do the more complicated upholstery stuff. I was determined to teach myself to upholster. I am a pretty good sewer to start so I had a good grasp on making pillows and piping but I had never applied it to furniture before. I had a couch that badly needed to be redone and so I began on my first upholstery journey.
I watched the DVD and even though the teacher had poor taste in fabric and was drier than a desert, I managed to glean enough to think I could attempt to reupholster my own couch. I can tell you right now, that my first mistake was starting with such a big project. Having never reupholstered before I had no idea what I was getting myself into.
I then began the grunt work: taking the couch apart. I really believe that the hardest part with reupholstering is taking the old fabric off. Well made pieces of upholstery often have about a million staples in them. Those commercial upholsterers do not joke around. They don't take any chances and so they staple and staple some more until there are piles of wasted staples on top of wasted staples. It's a bit ridiculous. Taking this couch apart took me a week merely because getting staples out of hardwood is difficult and by the end of each day my hands were red and swollen. Putting the couch back together took a lot less time - about 3 days. I had taken photographs of each step of the couch and copious notes on how it was put together so that I could properly put the new fabric on in the correct order. I had been told more than once not to use the fabric I took off of the old couch as a pattern pieces for the new couch. This is because fabric stretches and a lot of fabric gets trimmed off of the couch once it has been stapled. As well, you often need extra fabric to hold onto while you are stapling on the new pieces. I added an extra 2 - 3 inches on to my pattern pieces to allow for this.

In case you missed it last week, this is a new post series I'm doing to put my plans for the week out there for a little more structure and accountability.
Workout Schedule
Last week's workouts went as planned. I didn't get as many walks in as I would have liked because it rained most the week, but it was still a really solid week.
This week I'm working on week 9 of LiveFit Trainer, which puts me in phase 3, and week 2 of my core boot camp.
- Sunday: always my rest day, totally needed today!
- Monday: quads/calves/cardio, core boot camp, planks
- Tuesday: back/arms/cardio
- Wednesday: chest/shoulders, core boot camp
- Thursday: hammy's/glutes/calves, planks
- Friday: shoulders/tris/cardio, core boot camp
- Saturday: core bootcamp
I'm really excited for this week's workouts because they're changing up a lot in phase 3.
Meal Plan
Here's a little peak into my hand written meal plans for the week. I use this pad to meal plan. It's a total life saver and sure beats the days I was I printing one out each week.
- Toast w/PB, banana, honey, chia seeds
- Overnight oats
- Chocolate PB Smoothie
- Chocolate Cherry Waffle (whole wheat waffle with thawed frozen cherries and chocolate chips)
- chicken sandwich + veggies
- egg salad sandwich
- Amy's bean burrito that I never ate last week
- leftover chicken, green beans, sweet potato
- more leftovers from dinner below
My husband is going to get home really late all of this week, so we decided to go with really simple dinners to make my life a little easier.
- Sunday: balsamic glazed steak, garlic roasted carrots, & Parmesan risotto
- Monday: Ham + Cheese Quiche
- Tuesday: Quick + Easy Noodle Bowls
I should really try to update the picture for this recipe. It tastes way better than it looks 🙂
- Wednesday: beef stuffed shells with broccoli
- Thursday: leftovers
- Friday: grocery shopping day (although I would love to push this to Saturdays)
- plain Greek yogurt + berries
- ants on a log
- apple + PB
- Balance bar
Things To Do
- take a bunch of books to get rid of to a resale store or Goodwill
- pack for our camping trip next weekend
- Finish The Husband's Secret – I'm so close! And start a new book
- reach out to a friend who is moving away next week to get coffee or go on a walk before she leaves
Not too much going on this week, but I'll take it before a few busy weeks coming up. Have a great week!
Questions for You:
- Do you have "easy dinners" or "make do" weeks?
- Are you trying any new recipes this week?

FORT LAUDERDALE — Facing his skeptical bosses, City Manager Floyd Johnson detailed his plan Tuesday to address employee conflicts that have marred the city's reputation and sapped its resources.
But Johnson's plan for more training and an expanded complaint office -- a response to former judge Henry Latimer's recent report on employee claims of workplace discrimination and retaliation -- didn't go far enough for some city commissioners.
"I think the Latimer report was extremely critical and showed tremendous problems," said Mayor Jim Naugle. "I don't think this is enough to address it."
A majority of commissioners agreed to give him the latitude -- and time -- to deal with the problem the way he wants to. But their patience appeared to be wearing thin. For Johnson, it's been the sole issue for which he's taken heat from the commissioners since he was hired three years ago. Each year at his annual evaluation, he is told to make the problem go away.
Tuesday, he was told that again.
"I certainly don't want to be talking about this when it comes to next year's evaluation," said Commissioner Cindi Hutchinson, who reported being "not thrilled" about Johnson's plan.
Johnson said he'll make training for low-level supervisors mandatory. But that meant admitting that laborers are promoted to supervisory jobs without any training in how to discipline employees and handle them with fairness.
Training, Hutchinson said, is a waste of time if employees aren't going to apply it. Besides, she said, "I would hope in the year 2001 ... [training] would not be something new."
Johnson also said he will expand the scope of the city's Equal Opportunity Office so that it is open to any employee complaining of unfairness, even if they're not in a protected class. And he said he'll add two employees in that office and conduct a survey of all employees.

Hunting for giant wheat sharks in Kansas
Avid paleontology fans — and I know there are thousands of you reading this column right now — may have taken note of the discovery recently of what scientists are calling a fossilized jawbone fragment from a giant, prehistoric, clam-eating shark known as Ptychodus mortoni. The handful of you out there who aren't avid paleontology fans might have missed this little news tidbit, but it's something that I believe merits further discussion. Read the rest of this entry →

Available UK ShetlandsPersonal Ponies are leased out to Therapy Centers in bonded pairs. We have found over the years that having a familiar buddy is comforting and provides company and stability for our ponies. Since we ask that they NOT be turned out with larger horses (their short little legs will just not get them out of the way fast enough on joyful herd romps) having a buddy gives them the company they need as a herd animal.
After reading about our Therapy Center Program, please fill out the Pony Application and contact the listed caretaker if you would like more information.

Over the years, the North Devon Animal Ambulance has successfully rehomed many animals. To give you an
idea of the results we achieve, the following are updates on some of the animals that have found loving
new homes through your support.
For rehoming of animals such as cats, dogs, rabbits and guinea pigs, we need a continual supply of caring people who are ready to take responsibility for animals that have often been through a traumatic experience.
If you think you could offer a permanent new home to one of our cats, dogs or small animals, please visit our page about animal rehoming in North Devon.
Did you see our headline story about Lucy on the front page of the most recent NDAA newsletter? If so, you'll already know something about her lucky rescue from a violent and untimely death. Now settled into her loving new home, Lucy is proving to be a Foxy young lady, but more of that later. First, here's an update from Ian and Sue Jarvis, her new owners…
'Lucy's arrival with us was a surprisingly easy event,' explains Ian, 'with no ructions, histrionics or problems between new and current family members. Eleven weeks on and we're able to report that things have only got better. That said, we're not being complacent, and we fully expect some sort of to-do at some point – but there again, we may continue to be lucky!'
Runs in the fields are speedy and fun
The latest pictures of Lucy show that she's become close friends with springer spaniel Bethan (2) and 'Heinz-57' Sam (14), the couple's other dogs. She's also filled out nicely to become a lovely-looking athletic dog who loves to run. However, while Lucy has speed, she remains a little short on the stamina, for which Bethan, being of sturdy working-dog stock, is renowned. Consequently Ian and Sue report that runs in the fields are speedy and great fun, but soon have Lucy taking a short breather whilst Bethan continues to quarter the ground in her relentless search for pheasants. A successful partnership is clearly forming along the lines of 'you [Bethan] put 'em up, and I'll [Lucy] catch 'em'.
For Ian and Sue, the greatest surprise of all has been how loving and trusting Lucy's been despite the traumas of her early life. 'With builders around the house and walkers passing regularly, Lucy just has to go out and make friends. She shows no fear, and the only risk to the humans is a long-legged clasp and a wet lick. If anyone has an easy way of dissuading a dog from jumping up with two muddy paws we'd be grateful for suggestions!'
Trusting and trustworthy too
As well as showing trust, Lucy quickly showed that she could be trusted too. 'The lead was very quickly dispensed with as she demonstrated her quick reactions to a recall, and the good habit of always checking where we were when out walking and not disappearing without trace. That said, she's now clear about the boundaries of her territory, and does her best to check them whenever we go to the fields. This certainly makes taking her out for exercise very easy!'
As mentioned in the newsletter article, there is, however, one little foible which Ian and Sue would love Lucy to lose. 'I've said that Lucy is one foxy lady, and I mean this in a literal sense. She just loves to adorn herself with Eau de Renard, and she seeks out places in which to roll to gain this delightful scent on every possible occasion. Needless to say, Lucy's becoming well acquainted with the hose and shampoo!'
A second chance in life
What a great dog Lucy is – and how wonderful that she's now found a stable, loving home where she's properly appreciated. Summing up the story so far, Ian says: 'We're so pleased that we've had the opportunity to give her a second chance in life.' And so, undoubtedly, is 'Lucky Lucy'.
I adopted Harvey and Finn from a litter of four when they were 8 weeks old, they are now 8 months and I couldn't picture my life without them.
During university the boys live with me in Shropshire, being very well travelled and perfectly behaved in the car on long journeys. They live in and have free roam over my bedroom, I often find myself tripping over toys Harvey has hidden or the pair of them curled up asleep on my bed. They are perfect, always using their litter trays and always putting themselves to bed after an hour or two not to wake up again until the evening.
Despite being brothers and the best of friends, their interests differ considerably, Harvey having little interest in food but a big love for toys, and Finn being very much the opposite. It has got to the stage I cannot go out without bringing something new back for them to play with (the squeakier the better) , having had to upgrade the size of their toy box three times already. When it comes to food, Finn especially isn't fussy. They are fed their complete diet of Vitalin ferret food ad-lib that they pick at throughout the day; however it is the treats they look forward to most. Their favourites include tomato, grape, chicken, raisens and commercial ferret treats. I often find Finn on the hunt for the treat box, and if they ever need a little encouragement to get out of bed in the morning (which is often the case), a shake of the treat box and they are at your feet bright eyed and bushy tailed in no time.
Harvey and Finn are a big hit with my housemates; I encourage people to handle them as much as possible to get them used to people other than myself. In the future Diana and I hope for Harvey and Finn to attend NDAA events to provide hands on experience and education to the public. Due to their regular handling they never bite, Finn will even give you a kiss if you ask. They are harness and lead trained being walked twice a day around our Devon farm during University holidays, and they have already attended a 'show and tell' talk at Leagrave Scout group in Luton to gain experience of elevated noise levels and large numbers of people.
Having had the boys seven months now I couldn't imagine not seeing their 'war dance' when they get excited, or Harvey trying to carry a toy twice his size from one end of the room to the other, or even the pair of them falling asleep on me when I'm in bed watching TV. They are my little boys, and mean the world to me.
Archie is my gorgeous ginger furball and he came to me from the NDAA when he was about 5 months old. When I went to see the cats he was definitely the one who chose me and not the other way around!
He is everything I'd hoped for in a cat and has a wonderful personality. I'm on my own and he's really great company, he follows me wherever I go and likes to be involved in everything I do. He's a typical older kitten, playful, nosey and boisterous a constant source of entertainment and fun, his antics make me laugh even when he's naughty because he's just so adorable.
He does have a rather strange obsession with running water, he doesn't like getting wet like most cats but he'll stare at a recently used plughole for ages and when I'm doing the washing up it's always supervised! Favourite games are to ambush me from behind the shower curtain or to play fetch with his ball up the stairs, and yes he does carry it down and leave it at my feet like a dog, it's his party piece!
As well as playful Archie is also a very cuddly cat he loves a lap to curl up or sprawl out on in the evening for a good old fuss and I have my very own furry hot water bottle at night (after he's spent a while practicing his pounce skills all over the duvet!). I hoped I would get a fun, friendly and affectionate cat and with Archie I couldn't have been luckier, for me he is quite simply the perfect little ginger mog.
My last much loved moggie Jasper was also a rescued cat, I really believe rescued cats appreciate a good home when they are given the opportunity to have one. Jasper was a lovely companion once he knew he was secure and safe and now I have little Archie, he's proof that the job done by the N.D.A.A is invaluable. These animals are so deserving of a good home and quite simply without the whole N.D.A.A team Archie and I would not have found each other which now is unthinkable. I would recommend a rescue animal to anyone.
Molly is a Jack Russell Terrier that we rehomed in 2007 to Amanda and Dean, a wonderful couple living in Lostwithiel, Cornwall. Unusually for a terrier, Molly was a little unsure of herself; she was also petrified by cats and hated car travel. There's nothing like a challenge when you're rehoming a dog…
Amanda and Dean recently told us about Molly's new life and the amazing transformation as she enjoys her new life west of the Tamar. What a transformation they reported: Molly is now a seasoned traveller who goes to work with her owners and regularly holidays with them around the countryside. And as well as conquering her fear of car travel, Molly even lives with a cat now – and adores it!
As well as becoming very affectionate, Molly has also developed an endearing mischievous streak and rediscovered her characteristic 'terrier temperament' to be a much better breed ambassador! Above all, Molly's family love her very much and we're sure they'll be sharing many years of happiness together.
If you like happy endings and could provide one of our rescue dogs with a happy new home we'd love to hear from you.
It's always good to hear how things have worked out for rescued animals. Below are just a few updates on some of animals re-homed by the North Devon Animal Ambulance. Here, in her own words, is a story about one local dog that, thanks to the kindness of North Devon's animal lovers, is now enjoying a wonderful new life.
Hi, my name is Lottie (formerly Jess) and I'm a 2-year-old collie cross, rescued a few weeks ago by the NDAA's amazing Diana Lewis, North Devon's animal angel.
When Diana rescued me, I was in a dreadful neglected state and had to be sedated for repeated washings to get rid of the diesel that had been poured on my coat. My 'third eyelids' tried to protect my eyes from this terrible stuff which resulted in them being damaged. They'll take months to heal so, quite honestly, I don't look my best yet! Hopefully my eyes will heal in time, but I'll have to visit the special vet again soon to check my progress. Understandably I am still very nervous and frightened of people, sudden movements, and of being cornered and hurt again. Who wouldn't be?
After I was rescued a kind couple saw my sad picture on this website. They'd been looking for a special little dog and the next day they came to meet me. I was so excited! At the rescue centre, the NDAA team took good care of me, but what I really wanted was love, care, patience (and pieces of cheese because that's a lovely treat) and a lovely warm house to live in. As soon as the couple saw me they knew I was the special dog for them and, after going to the vet to make sure I didn't have puppies, I was delivered to my new home. Since then I've been learning about walking on the lead (and have now graduated to being allowed off the lead), taking wonderful walks in exciting fields and woodland and, best of all, learning to trust humans. I go crazy running in long grass in the fields around my home (but not near sheep) as I enjoy this new thing called freedom.
Speaking from my experience at the NDAA rescue centre, I found them to be a nice crowd of dogs – in all shapes and sizes, characters and personalities – and they all need loving homes. Above all, they're waiting for YOU to come and give them a lovely new home like mine.
Gotta go now! It's time for walkies and my new owners don't know I can write (let alone work the word processor…).
Lots of love from Lottie (formerly Jess) XXX
Not all our rescued dogs are able to draft their own testimonial! Usually, it's the delighted new owners who tell us how their pet is settling into family life. Here's what Millie's new owners had to say:
Dear NDAA,
Millie arrived in our lives about two months ago – very shy, nervous and sad. Over the ensuing months we've had the greatest pleasure watching beautiful Millie become alive with personality. She's the sweetest, most well-natured and good- tempered of animals and exceedingly loving. She loves to be cuddled and held, sometimes whimpering with delight at the sheer pleasure of being in our company or when we are playing with her – she particularly loves toy ducks!
Millie is continuing to grow in personality, playing more and more with toys and giving everything and everyone the utmost attention. She is absolutely gorgeous. Since we took her to the hairdresser we can barely walk down the street without people stopping to tell us how beautiful she is and she is lapping up the attention!
Thank you for introducing us to Millie, she has made a huge impact on our lives.
Helen, Rita and Maria
When two cats were recently rehomed by NDAA members Jane and Karen Dennis-Smither, it was the beginning of a challenging adventure for everyone – not least the dogs and wild birds already in residence…
Mischief, a young black and white feral cat was taken into the NDAA's Misty Unit in 2007 after being caught, along with her three kittens. Mischief wasn't even nine months old – far too young to have a litter. Pauline, our chairperson, spent days trying to make friends with her – efforts resulting in nothing but 'greetings' from a hissing, spitting cat with its claws out.
Lottie was the complete opposite
Eventually, the aptly named Mischief was given a companion – a female Bengal called Lottie who quickly came to rely on Mischief, and to treat her as her guardian. Lottie was the complete opposite to the feral Mischief, a docile cat that never put her claws out or tried to bite; a cat so terrified that she spent most of her day on her bed – only coming out to feed when no one was around. Lottie had been bred from time and time again until, after an unfortunate encounter with the 'wrong boy', she'd been passed between different people, gradually becoming more unsure and withdrawn.
Lottie eventually ended up in a very noisy house where, when Diana collected her, she was crouching timidly atop a dresser in a six-inch space. Her reaction to being approached? She went rigid and withdrew into herself, obviously terrified as she wondered where she was going next…
The two bonded well during several months in the Misty Centre. By the end of 2007 they were ready for rehoming – but it had to be a very special home, with people who'd make allowance for their different temperaments. Around this time, NDAA treasurer Jane and her daughter Karen had just lost their last cat, Georgie, at 17 years of age. Jane and Karen were on the lookout for two new cats – and were offering the perfect home for Lottie and Mischief.

Why cPanel is the Best Tool To Manage Blog Hosting
cPanel is the world's most used web management interface that allows users to manage content on their blog with the help of a GUI in most cases.
With cPanel tools, a website administrator can manage databases, website files, website content, security protocols and FTP transfers.
It is being used in blog hosting these days as it is just so easy to use. It is very fast at executing instructions as well.
It is very easy to use, and most of the web hosts are using the same VPS & Cloud Hosting. The user like to use same user interface; That's the reason cPanel is most famous. But there is one exception Host1Plus one of the major shared hosting providers is not give standard Cloud Hosting.
Host1Plus provides their custom cPanel which has the colorful user interface. To know more about Host1Plus hosting. Why is Host1Plus VPS & Cloud Hosting one of the best recommended shared hostings? This review clears all your doubts and queries
cPanel is Popular Because
It is very easy to use.
It is basically a control panel; a web administrator can use it to manage everything on the website through buttons and panels which are visually. Instead of going into the code, cPanels offer GUIs. Someone who has little knowledge about web administration can also use it and perform:
- Quick database modifications and updates
- Email account maintenance
- Blog post modifications and upload
- Easy image uploads for all blog posts
- Easy blog post organization
- Website content modification. Make major or minor modifications within minutes
Installing cPanel is Easy
cPanel is designed for easy handling of blogs. After installation, it will be able to perform all functions without extra plug-ins. Web hosts often provide tutorials for learning. Even for someone new to website administration, the cPanel will be easy to use.
cPanel Contains one click Apps
One click applications are designed for new web developers. The most popular one is WordPress. Installation takes place through the dashboard and no PHP coding is required. There are various other applications that allow control through cPanel. All applications can be installed with the click of a install button.
Database Management is simplified
Database management has always been a difficult task before cPanels. For blogs, easy database management is required. Going through code and queries manually requires a long time. It is also difficult to spot errors, debug or modify manually. With cPanel, web developers can use MySQL and integrate PostgreSQL with the click of a few buttons.
The GUI of a cPanel allows users to create database tables visually. Editing is done the same way. This minimizes the need to write multiple queries. Databases are easy to access this way.
System Backup
cPanel tools automatically create backups of all files. Backing up all website files is very important for any web developer. The auto backup ensure that you don't lose any data in case of system failure or cyber attack. Instead of backing up files manually, a web developer can use the backup wizard which is a built in tool. There is absolutely no need to go into coding.
To summarize, a cPanel should be used by non-experienced web developers to manage a blog faster. cPanels are constantly being updated, so many new features can be expected in the near future.

Welcome on board from 5 pm. Settling into your cabin and presentation of the crew followed by a welcome cocktail served in the lounge and dinner on board. Free evening.
Breakfast on board. In the morning, guided tour of the city of Dubrovnik. Nicknamed "the pearl of the Adriatic", the city is spread out before the sea at the foot of a range of rugged limestone mountains. The ancient city of Ragusa is famous for its ramparts, which date from medieval times, and its numerous pre-Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque buildings. You will be able to explore: the Franciscan monastery (14th century) where the cloister in the Romanesque style is composed of twin columns on which the capitals, which are all different, take the form of human and animal heads or are adorned with floral motifs, followed by the Rector's palace, once the seat of government, now converted into a museum and, finally, the cathedral on Marin Drzic Square, rebuilt between 1672 and 1713 on the ruins of a Romanesque church. Your tour will also take you past the two Onofrio Fountains (1438 and 1441) in front of the church of St Blaise (18th century) and the Sponza palace, a superb edifice which mixes the Gothic and Renaissance styles.
Back to the boat for lunch around 1 pm. Free afternoon to enjoy Dubrovnik. We suggest a stroll around the ramparts*. These fortified walls which completely encircle the old town are 2 km long and up to 25 m in height. From the ramparts you will get a very beautiful view over the old town. Back on board for the evening. Dinner followed by an evening of dancing. Departure of the cruise around midnight.
Breakfast during the cruise. Arrival in Mljet around 9 am. Situated between the island of Korcula and Dubrovnik, this is one of the most beautiful islands in the Adriatic. Excursion: departure on foot to board local boats to get to the monastery. The particularity of the island lies in its two lakes: Malo Jezero and Veliko Jezero. A Benedictine monastery rises on an islet in the middle of Veliko Jezero. Built in the 12th century in the Romanesque style and reworked many times over time, it is now dressed up in Renaissance and Baroque architecture.
Back on board at the end of the morning. During lunch, cruise to Korcula. Arrival around 2 pm. Guided tour of the town. You can only explore this town on foot. You will visit St Mark's cathedral (1420), testimony to the skill of the stone cutters and the talent of the sculptors of the period. You will see its sumptuous doorway flanked by two lions, a work by the Milanese artist, Bonino, and in the lunette Saint Mark the evangelist, the town's museum which houses ancient Greek and Roman artefacts, the icon museum. Back on board for the evening. Dinner on board, followed by a traditional "sabre dancing" evening.
Departure early in the morning. Breakfast during the cruise. Morning's sailing through an exceptional landscape. We will pass the islands of Hvar, Brac and Split. Lunch on board. We will reach Sibenik around 2 pm. Guided tour of the town and the Krka falls. During this visit you will discover the cultural heritage as well as the present day life of the oldest Slav settlement in the Adriatic. You will visit its historic centre with its maze of narrow streets from the 15th and 16th centuries and St James' cathedral build entirely of stone. You will then board your coach which will take you to the Krka falls. The Krka flows for 75 km from its spectacular source near Knin to the Adriatic which it reaches at Sibenik. The Krka widens and forms a lake before narrowing again at Skradinski Buk. It is here that the site is at its most beautiful: the water cascades over 17 travertine shelves which succeed each other over a short distance. Back on board for dinner and an evening with the crew.
Departure of the cruise early in the morning, breakfast on board. Arrival in Trogir around 8 am. Tour of the town. Built on the island it covers, Trogir is a little jewel with narrow labyrinthine street scattered with stairways and vaulted passageways. The town has been classed as a world heritage site by UNESCO. You will discover the superb St Laurence cathedral (13th century). Back on board at the end of the morning. Sail to Split. We will be sailing along the Dalmatian coast, arrival in Split around 3 pm. The second largest city in Croatia, it is the heart of central Dalmatia. Split, first of all, is the palace that Diocletian had built outside the city of Salona. It is then a medieval city which surrounded the palace and developed all around. Tour of the city which will take you to the Titova Obala, a vast walkway overlooked by the southern façade of the palace. From the Roman period of Diocletian's palace, all that remain are the relatively well conserved ramparts, and Diocletian's mausoleum, which was converted into a cathedral towards the end of the 7th century, to which a bell tower was added between the 13th and 17th centuries. The visit will allow you to see the peristyle, Jupiter's temple and Saint Domnius' cathedral. The ancient mausoleum of Diocletian has kept its original structure surrounded by 24 columns. Back on board at the end of the day. Dinner on board. Free evening.
Departure of the cruise early in the morning. Breakfast on board. We will reach Vis around 10 am. The most westerly of the Dalmatian islands and the least known, as it was for a long time closed to tourists, is a pearl which really has to be seen: unspoilt landscapes, a rugged coastline sheltering numerous creeks and coves, in a word the most authentic island in the entire Adriatic. Freedom to explore the town, founded by the Greeks in 390 BC under the name of Issa at the end of an immense bay. Back on board for lunch and departure of the cruise for Hvar, which we will reach in the afternoon. Guided tour of the town which will begin on the main square, Trg Svetog Stjepana. This is one of the biggest and oldest squares in Dalmatia. A must see is St Stephen's cathedral with its bell tower. This edifice was built in the 16th and 17th centuries on the foundations of an earlier cathedral destroyed by the Turks. Passing along the port, we will continue to the Franciscan monastery dating from the 15th century. The visit will allow you to explore its cloister and its refectory, where there is an exhibit of lace, coins, maritime charts and rare books. Back on board for the gala dinner, followed by an evening of dancing. Departure of the boat during the night for Kotor.
Breakfast during the cruise. Arrival in Kotor during the morning. The Kotor estuary is quite unique: the sea sweeps in for several kilometres, forming a number of calm bays which were once furrowed by a powerful naval force which made some ports extremely wealthy. The abundant rainfall and the temperate climate in this fjord-like bay explain the luxuriance of the vegetation. Lunch. Guided tour of Kotor. Exploration of the old town on foot. You will visit Saint Tryphon cathedral, built in the 9th century after sailors from Kotor brought back the relics of Saint Tryphon from Asia Minor, and the maritime museum. Back on board around 4 pm and departure of the cruise for Dubrovnik, which we will reach in the evening. Dinner on board. Free evening.
Breakfast on board. Disembarkation at 9 am. End of our journey.

LUIS (Language Understanding Intelligent Service) is the Machine Learning API for language understanding, a part of Microsoft Cognitive Services (you are not mistaken; it was used to be Project Oxford). Microsoft provides a number of SDKs, APIs and services for devs to make their applications smarter, more intelligent and inspiring.
How it works
LUIS helps to deploy an HTTP endpoint, which quickly takes the sentences sent to it, interpreting them in connection with the intention conveyed and the main entities presented. With the help of LUIS one can design any bundle of entities and intentions which are applicable for his business. After that the system of language understanding is to be built. LUIS will guide you.
The сore problem of computer-human interractions is to make the computer understand the intention of the user and divide his request into some blocks of information which can be analyzed, structurized and processed. F.i., in an online store app one might say "buy a white jacket in Kyiv". And the intention here is "BuyJacket" while "WhiteJacket" is the subject entity. In most cases the intention, containing a verb, is supposed to be the desired action. While "WhiteJacket" is the subject entity and "Kyiv" is the location entity.
And the last but not the least. It does learn, improving itself. LUIS analyzes the intentions and entities, asking the admin to label the interactions it is unsure of. So with the help of LUIS one can extend the set of connections. The more it asks, the quicker it learns.

SANTA CLARA — Jim Harbaugh on Thursday reiterated his time-honored stance about not discussing his contract in public, though he said he "absolutely" wants to be the 49ers coach for many years.
Harbaugh is in the third year of a five-year, $25 million contract he signed in 2011, when he was the most sought after coach by NFL teams — the Dolphins, Broncos and Raiders also wooed Harbaugh.
Owner Jed York said earlier this month that he intends to sit down with Harbaugh at the end of this season and talk about an extension for Harbaugh, who has guided the 49ers to the playoffs each of his first two seasons and is on the verge of doing so again this season.
York said he hopes that the Harbaugh has the ultimate leverage during the planned meeting because that would mean that the 49ers won the Super Bowl.
In the interim, Harbaugh said he isn't interested in talking about specifics when it comes to his contract.
"When it comes to talk about contracts, I've always felt that it's in nobody's best interest to publicly discuss that," Harbaugh said.
When pressed on whether he is interested in coaching the 49ers for many years, Harbaugh said: "Absolutely."
He also poked fun of recent reports that linked him to the coaching vacancy at the University of Texas.
"We can all agree that an unnamed source is hearsay," Harbaugh said. "Beware of unnamed sources. They speak with forked tongue."
Harbaugh also dismissed any suggestion that there's friction between he and general manager Trent Baalke, and he characterized their relationship as "good."
"It's the 49ers way; the team, the team, the team," Harbaugh said of the way he and Baalke approach their jobs. "Everybody does a little, and it adds up to be a lot.
"Nobody is above the team. Nobody more important. Nobody less important. There are hundreds of people in this organization, and we all have a role, we all contribute to the best of our ability. That's the team, the team, the team. We win as a team."

Gerry Adams has threatened legal action against Dublin's Evening Herald after it ran a story criticising him over standing for election in the region where a woman murdered by the IRA almost 40 years ago was buried.
The story, published on Monday last week, featured interviews with the family of murder victim Jean McConville attacking Adams for his choice of constituency.
The Sinn Féin leader is campaigning for election to the Dail this week in the Louth constituency where McConville was buried.
The paper carried comments from Adams rejecting "absolutely" the claims carried in the piece.
While Adams has admitted to being a supporter of the Provisional IRA during the years before its ceasefire, he has always denied ever being a member of the paramilitary group.
Following publication of the initial story lawyers acting for Adams contacted the paper threatening legal action.
The Herald then lead on its front page with claims that Adam's was "hiding behind his lawyers" and published the letter sent to them by his Dublin law firm, McCartan & Burke, on page two.
The threat of legal action also brought a stern response from Evening Herald editor Stephen Rae who was quoted in his own paper saying that Adams was attempting to silence journalists ahead of the Irish general election, which takes place later this week.
The letter from Adams' lawyers warned that the original Sunday Herald article was a "serious defamation", and said that Adams was "considering all legal remedies open to him".
It said: "In the meantime he requires that your newspaper desist from publishing any further untruthful articles about him."

A healthy, quick and tasty weeknight soup that is ready in under 30 minutes. The coconut milk and sweet potato add a satisfying richness . Mussels and shrimp would be a great addition.
Ingredients (Serves 3)
- 1/2 fennel bulb, sliced
- 1/2 white onion, chopped
- 2 bay leaves
- 4 cloves garlic, sliced
- 1 sliced chili or chili flakes
- 1 can light organic coconut milk
- 2 cups chicken or vegetable stock
- 1 sweet potato, cut into cubes
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms (I used brown button)
- 9 Scallops
- 2 medium skinless and boneless firm white fish fillets such as cod, cut into thick pieces
- Fresh chives
- Grated lemon rind from 1/2 lemon
- Sea salt and pepper
Sweat the onions and fennel in a large pot until beginning to soften. Add the garlic, chili to taste and sweet potato and cook for a another minute or so, stirring constantly to avoid burning the garlic. Add the can of coconut milk and 2 cups of stock, grated lemon rind and bay leaves then cover and bring to a boil. Once boiling add in sliced mushrooms then reduce to a simmer for about 15 minutes until potato softens. Turn heat up then add in scallops and fish and cook for about another 5 minutes, until seafood turns opaque.
Remove from heat, discard bay leaves and add salt and pepper to taste. Ladle into bowls making sure to give each person three scallops and serve with fresh chopped chives, extra cracked pepper and wedges of lemon.

Northumberland County
Life moves at a slower pace in Northumberland County, which lies on the Chesapeake Bay and is just across the Potomac River from Maryland. The abundance of waterways, laid-back lifestyle, and temperate climate have made it one of Virginia's leading retirement and vacation communities. Northumberland comprises 286 square miles, with 94 square miles of water, and a population of approximately 12,400. At the time of English settlement around 1635, the area was inhabited by the Native American Wicomico and Chickacoan tribes. In 1648, this "Mother County of the Northern Neck" was organized and named after County Northumberland, England.

Question about Eureka Vacuums
When using the nozzle and tube it does pick up , but the main rolling vaccuum does not pick up anything, can not find my directions on how to change the belt( this might be the problem right? although the bottom rooler is spinning fast) what do I do to solve this problem.
Posted by laurenanddav on
That problem can be caused by the belt being stretched out and even though it is spinning when you look at it, with the resistance of the carpet it will stop.
With a model number I could tell you exactly how to change the belt, but most of the whirlwinds I've seen are similar.
You need to gain access the belt and roller. On most models there are two screws on the top of the nozzle inside one of the four indentions that run along each side. Once you take those out it allows you to take the hood off.
Remove the brush roller and old belt. Wrap the new belt around the motor shaft and place the roller through the belt loop and use the roller as leverage to stretch the roller back into the roller housing. It will take a little muscle. Give the roller a spin by hand before putting the hood back on. It should spin easily. If it doesn't then you might have pinched the belt and need to free it or the belt will just burn up when you turn the unit on.
A clog in the hose going down to the nozzle would also cause this problem, so check that hose when you take the hood off.

Children & Families
The Division of Children and Family is responsible for the following duties:
Other Services Provided
Foster Parents
Columbia County Department of Health & Human Services needs people to provide foster care for children from birth to 18 years. A person licensed to operate a foster home must be a responsible, mature individual who is fit and qualified, who doesn't abuse alcohol or drugs or have a history of statutory conviction or administrative rule violation that substantially relates to the care of foster children or operating a foster home.
Individuals licensed to be foster parents must exercise sound judgement and display the capacity to successfully nurture foster children.
Foster parents will usually have some contact with their foster child's birth parents.
A foster child's length of stay in a foster home ranges from one day to two years. Children placed in a foster home may have learning disabilities or emotional/behavioral challenges. Bed wetting and head lice are not unusual.
Foster parents are responsible for enrolling their foster child in school, scheduling and transporting their foster child to medical or therapy appointments, and attending meetings related to the child's status and progress.
All foster children are covered by Medical Assistance. Foster parents receive standardized monthly payments to cover the cost of caring for the child. A foster parent who has particularly difficulty care for a child may receive a supplement in addition to the basic rate.
Kinship Care
This program offers assistance for households where the child or children are being cared for by a relative. It is limited in funding and usually is awarded based on need with priority going to those cases where the court has ordered this custodial arrangement.

Indeed, there is a lot that we don't understand about fertility -- and infertility for that matter. However, fertility experts do know some essential things, things you should know, too.
Here are five things you might not know about the process of fertility:
- Fertility is largely determined by genetics.
When women are born, they are born with a certain amount of eggs in their body, which is typically around 2 million for most women. But for every egg that is ovulated during a woman's reproductive life, around 1,000 eggs undergo a programmed cell death. That being said, a woman's egg supply naturally decreases over time. This explains why women are the most fertile between the ages of 20 and 24, with fertility beginning to decline around the age of 30.
- Regular menstruation is an indicator of regular ovulation
A typical menstruation cycle lasts between 24 and 35 days. This is an indicator of regular and predictable ovulation. Women who have irregular ovulation have irregular menstrual cycles.
- Basal temperature charting is not a solid predictor of ovulation
Many people track heir oral body temperature each morning in order to track their ovulation cycle. However, this method is inherently flawed, as body temperature rises after ovulation has occurred. Instead, fertility experts recommend using an over-the-counter urine ovulation predictor tester kit.
- Women with obstructions in their fallopian tubes may have had a prior pelvic infection
Did you know that about 10% of all cases of infertility can be attributed to a tubal disease, involving either complete blockage or pelvic scarring? A major cause of this disease is typically a prior pelvic infection, often caused by STDs like chlamydia.
- For the most part, stress does not make you infertile
While severe trauma can indeed affect a period, day-to-day stress will usually not stop a woman from ovulating regularly.
Stay tuned for our next post to find out five more important facts fertility experts want you to know!

A big thank you to my fiancée Emma for buying me a cookery lesson with one of my food heroes at Season cookery school
Lainston House is part of the Exclusive hotel chain, who take their dining very seriously – The Latymer at Pennyhill Park in Bagshot, Surrey holds 2 Michelin stars, The Bybrook at Manor House in Castle Combe, Wiltshire holds 1 Michelin star, The Pass at South Lodge hotel in Horsham, Surrey holds 1 Michelin star and head chef at The Pass, Matt Gillan got his main course dish to the banquet in Great British Menu this year. I've been a very happy diner at The Latymer and The Pass.
Season is a new if natural venture for Exclusive hotels and the cookery school has been running for a couple of months. They offer a variety of courses from basic knife skills to cooking with kids through to cooking with Michelin starred chefs. My advice is to pick a course pitched at your experience in that area and the booking staff are available for help. I leapt at the chance to cook with 2 Michelin-starred head chef Michael Wignall from The Latymer, who was going to demonstrate a dish, taking us from the concept through to the plating
Lainston House is a short drive out of the pretty, quintessentially English city of Winchester. Driving down the sweeping drive leading to the hotel tells you this is classy country house hotel. The cookery school is located in a separate building from the main hotel, near to the main car park
I walked into the large welcome/dining/lounge area to be greeted with a warm welcome and offered a pastry and a drink (tea, coffee, juice and water). I was given a little paperwork to be filled in and a course pack of a Season apron to wear and to keep, a Masterchef contestant style name badge and the recipes for the course. Yes, recipes – we had a bonus that chef Wignall wanted to push us with 2 dishes and show as many processes as possible that we could take back and use in our own kitchens. This was perfect for our group of experienced cooks. By the way, a quick word of reassurance, I was a little daunted when I first saw the recipes with 11 components and many new processes but the masterclass shows how to do it and help is readily available when it's time for you to tackle the dish yourself
They have really gone all out with the cookery school. Gaggenau have outfitted the kitchen (discounts available for Season customers) and Season have also commissioned bespoke branded cookery equipment for the school, which is available for purchase
The morning kicked off with a quick introduction by cookery school director Sylvain Gachot and we were then taken into the kitchen to meet chef Wignall (he told us to call him Michael, so I'll do that for the rest of the review) and his assistant Kieran
The cookery stations had generous work space but Michael reminded us that good chefs work tidily and clean up as they go along. It was interesting to hear that he shares my distaste for induction stoves. Do ask for help if you're not familiar with induction stoves – you need specific sized pans for specific sized rings and it's easy to boil things over if you don't have a feel for them
The lesson started with a masterclass. Superb. I love watching experts in any field at work and in his hands, Michael made the processes on the recipe sheets seem achievable. Lots of opportunity to ask questions and lots of professional kitchen tips. He was very happy to share his knowledge and expertise. One major thing I will take away is that the key to greatness lies in attention to detail – for example, sieving the baking powder into the caramel makes the resulting honeycomb lighter and smoother
Michael then plated up the 2 dishes – Oxfordshire hay-smoked trout, linseed cracker, horseradish emulsion, trout belly rilette, sea vegetables, dashi and Poached pear, ginger beurre noisette, caramelised chestnut, dolce chocolate namelaka, pear bubbles, honeycomb – to show us what we were trying to achieve and to taste. Heavenly with a balance and contrast of flavours and textures. I was very excited that we were going to attempt to cook dishes of that level of calibre and finesse
Then, it was our turn to have a go. The day was set up nicely for us with the chefs telling us what order in which to tackle the tasks. A constant stream of ready measured ingredients arrived on our work benches in readiness for our next dish to be tackled. If only I could always have that service in my own kitchen!
There were several new experiences for me – the most exciting was preparing a fresh trout from scratch by scaling, cleaning, gutting, filleting and pin boning the fish in readiness for curing and smoking
We had a go at classic recipes like making honeycomb through to the molecular gastronomy world of spherification using alginate and lactate to make thin-skinned bubbles of pear purée to go in the dessert. I loved every minute and Michael, chef Kieran and and chef Sylvain were always circulating, checking in on us, advising, helping and even helping with the washing up!
It was also nice to chat to my fellow students and share our favourite restaurants and recipes. Always good to meet fellow foodies
As with all cooking tasks, the time flew past and soon, it was time to plate up our food. By the way, we were able take home all our uneaten food to share at home, which was nice as many of us had received the course as a present
This was truly one of the best cookery experiences of my life and I learned a lot but those skills were easily transferable to my day to day cooking. Thanks to Michael and Season cookery school for a great time. Now, to save up for the lesson with chef Matt Gillan, who is hosting a lesson in cooking his winning dish from the Great British menu

Know something about this song or lyrics? Add it to our wiki.
The doorbell rang when she was all alone. A friendly salesman smiled at the girl. She told him she didn't need anything. He said she was wrong and stepped inside. The look in his eyes changes drasticly. A primal being in her screamed. She told him to get the heln out of her way and took off running tried to escape. But she didn't made it far, just through the hall and out the door and when she fell she chilled to the bone. 'That ain't nice of you to say, I'm gonna fuck you up today'. Guess the streets are loaded with troubled souls. She tosses and turns but can't find rest; the chaos dominates her mind. Sleep won't come yet but instead It happens over and over again.

There are certain prerequisites that may also be termed as minimum requirements of TURP which may include:
Selection of professional and experienced TURP surgeon to perform the procedure.
Purchase of a mild natural bulk-forming laxative.
Donning loose fitting clothing on the morning of surgery.
Arranging any friend or family to be available for assistance after surgery.
Scheduling a week off from work.
Getting enough sleep on the night before surgery.
To evaluate the prostate gland for BPH, the doctor generally performs a complete physical examination along with the following procedures:
Digital rectal examination (DRE) is recommended every year for men over the age of 50, the DRE is an examination conducted by the doctor who feels the prostate through the wall of the rectum. Stiff or lumpy parts may indicate the presence of cancer.
Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test is also prerequisite for men over the age of 50 once in a year. The PSA test measures the levels of prostate-specific antigen released by the prostate. It is common to notice small quantities of PSA in the blood.
If the outcomes of DRE and PSA examinations signal of a prominent prostate disorder, the examining physician generally refers the patient to an urologist, a doctor specializing in diseases of the urinary tract and male reproductive system. The urologist conducts some additional tests, encompassing blood and urine studies, to establish a diagnosis.
TURP is a kind of transurethral surgery in which external incision is not made. The surgeon reaches the prostate by inserting an instrument through the urethra.
The actual TURP procedure is not complicated. It is performed by administering general or local anesthesia. After an IV is inserted, the surgeon first tests the patient with a cystoscope, a device that allows him/her to view the bladder. The surgeon then inserts an instrument through the urethra using the penis cavity, and dissects the excess capsule substance that has been hindering the flow of urine. The volume of the normal prostate varies from that of the restricting capsule, enabling it easy for the surgeon to analyze exactly how much to remove. After removing the capsule substance, the surgeon inserts a catheter inside the bladder through the passage of the urethra for the withdrawal of urine.

Linklater's "Last Flag Flying" Soundtrack
Following up on his previous collaborations with iconic filmmaker Richard Linklater, Graham Reynolds provides the soundtrack for the new release Last Flag Flying.
In 2003, 30 years after they served together in the Vietnam War, former Navy Corps medic Richard "Doc" Shepherd (Steve Carell) re-unites with ex-Marines Sal (Bryan Cranston) and Mueller (Laurence Fishburne) on a different type of mission: to bury Doc's son, a young Marine killed in the Iraq War. Doc decides to forgo burial at Arlington Cemetery and, with the help of his old buddies, takes the casket on a bittersweet trip up the East Coast to his home in suburban New Hampshire. Along the way, Doc, Sal and Mueller reminisce and come to terms with shared experiences of the war that continue to shape their lives. Director Richard Linklater and author Darryl Ponicsan collaborated on the screenplay which follows the trio as they wrestle with the pangs of war both past and present.
In theaters November 3rd. Read more about the film, featured in the LA Times and Rolling Stone.

First of all, don't worry this article is safe for work. :)
We love porn. I mean, we as human beings of course. We also do love gaming. It is clear why these two are the very first ones being changed by VR. But while gaming can be go full monty with VR, the porn industry will face unexpected problems.
How do we consume porn nowadays? We are merely passive consumers, and there's not much changed since the first introduction of peep shows – did you know btw that it can be traced back to the 15th century? I mean the browser window showing pornographic images is not much different from the offline 'lady in the room watched by men through a window'. It is as old as human history. The varieties changed a lot, but the format didn't. It's still passive, even if we talk about porn chatrooms or services like LiveJasmin.
And this is the problem, it supposed to be passive. The consumer wants to watch and look. He (or she!) doesn't want to be in the shoot, nor part of the clip. It makes him awkward. There's a great difference between going to a swinger club, using escort service, or just even good old fashioned home humping, and between watching a porn at home with all the anonymity you can have.
In VR porn, in its current stage, you much likely watch a highly detailed 180° video – there's no point for 360° where you can catch up with the camera crew as well, right? – where they can follow the "hero's" viewpoint. It's super-real. Early testers even complained it's so real, that they feel like they're cheating their partners. It's creepy for some, and also it's so real that it's simply too much for some users.
Also don't forget about the actual real-life situation: normally you sit in your chair watching a screen, your eyes perfectly know what's happening, and so do your hands. In VR your eyes, your main sensors are teleported to a virtual world and the rest of your body, well, it still sits in your room as it normally does. Would you work with that?
It's a very sensitive topic to discuss and we think VR porn, from the user's point of view, currently crosses the line of virtual porn and virtual prostitution. Not saying that it's a good or bad thing, but the super-reality of VR porn its clearly more than a passive one-off consumption of porn that we used to. Not sure the current users are ready for this, or can handle the outcomes.
What do you think?

Issue 4 Page 13
Errol's character as I have written him has been leading to this moment. In his autobiography, My Wicked, Wicked Ways, Errol paints himself as being a reckless, braggadocious, personification of the spirit of Hakuna Matata, alpha male. But while I was reading it, I was struck by the narrative that existed between the lines. And I responded to that, admittedly imagined, unprofessional psychoanalysis.
Something about tearing down the machismo of Flynn appealed to me. Plus, hopefully if I did my job correctly, it subverts all of the little clues I laid out of Errol perhaps having sinister motives and instead being all too human.
This is where he is vulnerable for the first time. All of his macho devil may care what people think bravado evaporates and we see that he does indeed care and is very insecure.
The button for this scene was a bit of a struggle. I tend to lean into sentiment and sincerity when I write, and originally, the scene ended with our trio having a group hug. But after talking it through with Jon, and reminding myself that this is an action adventure comedy, undercutting the sincerity with a note of bathos seemed appropriate, and in line with Errol's character.
