The five-piece indie pop band formed in 2013. The group began when guitarist Matt Richards started sharing acoustic demos of his strummy pop songs with his fellow bandmates in his Valley Stream, NY basement. They released their debut 7" Jumprope EP with Portland, OR's Shelflife Records, and the group subsequently started to play several shows in and around NYC before settling into writing new material.
Recorded with Connor Hanwick (The Drums, The Pains of Being Pure at Heart) in Brooklyn, NY, Richards, vocalist/keyboardist Jackie Mendoza, guitarist Colin O'Neill, bassist Kevin Doxsey, and drummer Brian Alvarez, have compiled ten new tracks filled with fuzzy guitars, dream-pop melodies, and guitar hooks galore. The songs will be released as the band's self-titled debut album on cassette, CD, vinyl and digitally via Washington, DC'sBabe City Records and San Diego, CA's Topshelf Records on November 17, 2017.

Starting your own business is not for the faint of heart. Our Director Jessica knows all too well that while the process is generally stressful and demands a LOT of hard work, it is also full of many rewards.
I recently had the opportunity to attend an event hosted by General Assembly which featured an impressive line-up of guest speakers from some of the brands Social Concepts love including Vinomofo, Electric Confetti, Frank Body and The Royals. Coincidently, they discussed how they built a business people love and provided some insights for those thinking of starting their own business too. I've summed up their 5 top tips to building a business people love below.
Do what you love
Finding your passion and turning that into a business is the key to building not only a business people love, but a business you love. If you're able to harness your passion into the work you do, not only will you be excited about what you're doing but other people will too and will value what you've put in to produce it.
We hear the phrase "find something you love and you'll never work a day in your life" way too often, but the truth is even when you're doing something you love you will still have tough days. Don't let this confuse you into thinking that you're doing the wrong thing.
Create your brand
Good branding is the key to any good business. Get back to basics and start by defining your values. Once you've defined your values, try aligning them with your mission. Don't get too head stuck in the mission part – your mission doesn't have to be to change the world, Vinomofo's Michael Ellis states it can be to "simply unite people over wine".
Try thinking of your business as a person – what would it stand for? What personality traits would it display? How would it talk or even dress? A mood board can be a great place to get your thoughts on paper.
Listen to your customers and be prepared to grow with them
Your customers are the core of your business, so you need to listen to what they want and be prepared to grow when they do. Building a business people love means not just talking about yourself, but talking to your customers and encouraging them to talk back, says Frank Body co-founder Bree Johnson.
Natalie Stuart from Electric Confetti discussed the growing pressure smaller businesses face due to stronger competitors and says it's best to have strategies in place for future challenges. While you don't need to keep daily tabs on your competition, make sure you stay on top of industry news and any changes in consumer behaviour. You don't need to alter your business entirely to keep up with every single update, but be prepared to grow or alter when necessary.
Create an infectious culture
Your culture is the essence and thread that binds your business together. When you're going through difficult times; whether it be the challenges of starting your business from scratch or road bumps that appear as you're in business, your culture will help ground you when things seem too overwhelming.
Make sure you celebrate your milestones, enjoy the little things, inspire teamwork and friendly competition and get out of the office when you can. While work is your top priority *sigh* that doesn't mean you can't let loose sometimes.
Invest in people
Your employees are your most valuable assets. Vinomofo's Head of Culture Michael Ellis tells it's all about "building your tribe". Attract people that resonate with your business and that put out positive and similar vibes to you. While hiring someone with the right qualifications is important, he says if you can you should hire based on culture and train for skill. Anyone can pick up a new skill and it might even play to your advantage training him or her based on how your business works.
A serious company budget is dedicated to keeping the snacks/drinks cupboard full at The Royals, I'm talking five figures each year. While your business may not be at that stage financially, little efforts don't go unnoticed. Reward employee achievements and continue to see them grow.
Remember you can't be afraid to make mistakes. Building a business people love takes time and money, but it will be one of the most exciting and fulfilling experiences of your life.

Steven Grant Returns to CBR
When I stopped writing PERMANENT DAMAGE a couple years ago, I stopped reading comics. For the first time in my life. I started reading comics at age 7, with "All-Star Western" #116. That was a long time ago. (I suddenly feel like Justice Shallow, opening Orson Welles' Shakespeare mash-up Chimes At Midnight with a moaned "Jesus, the days that we have seen.") I still know the first five I bought: "Justice League of America" #6, "The Flash" #123, "World's Finest" #120, "Detective Comics" #295, "Green Lantern" #7. That last one nailed my coffin shut — from there, it was a blur of pretty much everything. Aside from war, romance and funny animal comics, I was a pretty indiscriminate reader. Indiscrimination is good, when you're starting out. It helps define taste rather than feed bias.
But I would say that, wouldn't I? My own bias kept Russ Heath and, except for Hawkman, Joe Kubert out of my grasp for many years.
The others are completely forgettable unless you were still new enough to comics that they'd leave an imprint (that JLA issue introduced me to superhero bondage, the "World's Finest" to the joys of humiliating Superman, the "Detective Comics" — no, that one was just forgettable…) but "The Flash" #123 and "Green Lantern" #7 spawned modern superhero comics. The former introduced Earth-2, the latter the Green Lanterns Corps, and from these two seeds whole mythologies across entire comics lines grew directly or by inspiration, flourished (sometimes), and, let's face it, have largely grown tired and rancid. (It has been over 50 years, after all.) Even modern Marvel owes far more, content-wise, to Gardner Fox, John Broome, Carmine Infantino and Gil Kane than it does to Stan Lee, Jack Kirby or Steve Ditko. (Conversely, the Marvel movies still owe almost everything to them.)
But I was there, at the dawn of that age, and I was here for the dawn of this one, and that's a hell of a lot of comics read. And I stopped, just like that. After 10 years of discussing comics almost every week, 12 if you add in MASTER OF THE OBVIOUS, the column that preceded PERMANENT DAMAGE, after five decades of immersion in the medium and the field, no juice left.
Not the first time I'd been through something like that. After I stopped reviewing films in 1981, after almost a year of reviewing between five and eight mostly truly bad movies ("Charlie Chan & The Curse Of The Dragon Lady," anyone? "Flash Gordon?") for the better part of a year, I didn't a movie for six months, and film was my college major. Then I saw Brian dePalma's awful "Blow Out," then another six months before I could watch another film.
Sometimes you just have to cool out.
Funny thing brought me back to reading comics last July: I bought a 10″ Asus Transformer T-300-T tablet. For travel, originally; it seemed a lighter, more convenient alternative to my old netbook so I could keep up with email and internet on the road. Not that I was spending any time on the road, but you have to spend movie money on something. (Did I mention that during The Great Absence, "2 Guns" had finally made the jump to production? More on that down there somewhere.) Turns out, the dirty little secret of tablets is they're great for receiving data, not great for sending it, though I suppose if I texted I'd find it easier, but texting is annoying as hell. For serious writing, tablets are next to useless. (Eventually got the keyboard/battery back accessory for the Transformer. Now writing on it's not bad.)
Turns out what 10″ tablets are really great for is reading comics. (At least Android tablets; I assume 10″ iPads are just as good.) Screw paper. You can carry hundreds of comics on a tablet with no weight at all, manipulate page size when necessary, and on those screens the art & colors just pop. Old comics or new, doesn't matter.
The tablet made reading comics a kick again. It's like a whole new thing, now.
Decided it was time to catch up a little. The Newish 52 had launched in my absence so asked what titles were worth having a look at. Didn't want to replicate my Blow-Out experience, though now that I think about it, people recommended that then too. Most surprising recommendation was Jimmy Palmiotti & Justin Gray's "All-Star Western" — surprising because the person recommending it hates westerns — and, clinging to DC continuity by a hangnail, the run has been the most consistently entertaining of the Newish 52. If there were any sanity in fandom, readers would flock to the book in droves.
What was most recommended, though, was Scott Snyder's "Batman" arc, "The Court Of Owls."
Batman is easily the most confusing property in all DC's Newish 52 — given Green Lantern, that's saying something — and a prime example of why I call it the Newish 52. Characters like Superman and The Flash they took a machete to; while not reimagining them a la the 1956 reintroduction of The Flash (hence Newish), they hacked away at much of the baggage, rendering sleeker if not necessarily more coherent versions. Logic suggests this is the way the Newish DC should have gone across the board, and even more thoroughly, though the hardcore faithful would likely have hate it even more than they seem to hate what did happen. They should have cleaned house, started from scratch a la 1956, proceeded as though everything that came before happened in, well, some other universe. (Not that anyone with sense expected it. DC already botched at least two opportunities to completely reboot with "Crisis On Infinite Earths" and "Zero Hour.") The Batman books, near as I can tell, kept all their former continuity and, with "Batman Incorporated," ran with it as if there had never been any universe-wide shift, shoehorning in longrunning storylines with current revamps and ramping up an unholy mess for anyone trying to make sense of it all. Better as a reader not to try, better as a creator to simply never refer to old storylines ever again and get on with it.
Which, admirably, Scott Snyder seemed to want to do with "The Court Of Owls."
Unfortunately, he lost me almost instantly, with Batman going to an underground convergence of abandoned train tracks under Gotham City, representing the old five routes into the burg and now, in smothering symbolism, controlled by the five organized crime families that run the Gotham underworld. Were the character just starting out, if this had been a complete relaunch, this wouldn't have bothered me. But the Newish mythology says Batman has been active in Gotham City for five years.
Think about that. This is a guy whose whole raison d'etre is to exact vengeance on all crimedom for the brutal murders of his parents. Of course, what really drives Batman isn't thirst for vengeance but stunted adolescence backed by a personal fortune & virtually unlimited resources that keep the usual necessities of life from standing in the way of his ambitions and forcing him to grow up (an unmentioned underlying theme that perhaps strikes more of a chord with modern audiences than, say, Superman's emphasis on civil service and responsibility). So this guy has had five years to wipe out organized crime, and he not only knows what crime families exist he knows exactly where to find them. And they're still there, operating.
In the DCU, there are three levels of crime. There's organized crime, crazy supervillains and the lowest level street crime involving spouses who suddenly kill each other, the random person desperate for cash who suddenly decides to mug a passerby, etc. Street crime, that's too unpredictable to expect Batman to stop it unless he's in the right place at the right time. Crazy supervillains? They're crazy. There's only so much short of execution anyone can do about that. Organized crime? Not only should organized crime no longer exist in Gotham City, he should routinely and definitively drive out anyone who tries to set up shop. He should be making Metropolis look like a preferable alternative. He should be the damn Hat Squad.
That five years after he has started his crusade against crime, there are still five fully functional organized crime families operating in Gotham indicates only one thing:
Batman is a pussy.
I'm pretty sure that's not the message they're trying to get across, but if you think about it at all, that's the message you get. He's an entitled rich kid with lots of attitude and no follow-through, who can't even get around to dealing his single avowed reason for existence.
I don't blame this on Scott. It's part of the general corporatethink surrounding characters like Batman, and it's been in place for a long time, through many regimes. I'd be very surprised if anyone at DC even thinks to question it. Corporatethink does not like to think things through. The function of corporatethink is to carve out a comfort zone (however one defines comfort in whatever situation) and resist any departure from that zone, usually at all costs. If there are departures and they turn out successful rather than the horrific failures corporatethink is certain they'll be, corporatethink just moves the zone over to the new sweet spot, calls it the new comfort zone then commonly tries to redecorate to make it look as much like the old comfort zone as possible.
And everything gets touted as new. Ish.
That's a problem of dealing with icons. People get tangled up in the iconic, and in this business, in any entertainment business, "iconic" is shorthand for "we have something we want to turn into a moneymaking franchise, so we need you to think it's a lot more important than it is." But "icons" generate repetitions. Using Batman and "The Court Of Owls" as an example again, the Batman offices really ought to keep a chart of gimmicks that shouldn't be repeated again. Faceless (which is to say impersonal) all-powerful centuries-old conspiracies, especially those that pop up out of nowhere into an already littered continuity, are inherently boring. Not every new master villain has to have some deeply intimate direct connection to Bruce Wayne. (Weren't Dr. Hurt and Hush enough?) And is there some website somewhere in the DCU that has Batman's secret identity posted or something? Everybody knows!
None of this is anything that's difficult to correct, but it's never corrected. It's frequently blamed, sideways, on the writers, disguised as a courtesy to them: we don't want to limit the possibilities. We can't eliminate crime families because some writer might come in with a great story about Batman vs. crime families. But if you listen to rationales for resurrecting unperforming "icons" from the grave over and over and over again, there are no limits to possibilities. Both can't be right. At least there seems to be no end to the possibilities for organized crime in Gotham City: now Leviathan has take over the place, right under Batman's nose. The only possibility for Batman now seems to be swaggering but ultimately ineffectual bully. Even in "Dark Knight Rises," he only barely manages to save the day after numerous people are killed and most of Gotham City's population is displaced on his watch, even after he stops thinking about his bad knees. I guess you have to keep those stakes raised somehow.
And I guess there are still a few things left to say after all, now that the landscape has changed. So: TEMPORARY MADNESS. A cheap seven week publicity stunt leading up to the release of "2 Guns" on August 2 (my graphic novel that they drew the film from has just been rereleased by BOOM! Studios, so if you haven't read it yet, don't be a stranger) but also almost two months of big fun from behind the curtain of pop culture. Sure, I'm indulging myself, but to quote Falstaff in Chimes At Midnight, "If to be merry and old is a sin, then many an old host I know is damned."
But "Damned" is another story.
Sorry, no politics except cultural politics this time around, but if anyone wants to pay me to write political commentary, you know where to find me. Replies, mash notes, hate mail, etc. can be sent to firstname.lastname@example.com. Anyone who wants face time can find me at the San Diego Comic-Con, July 18-21 (try the Boom! Studios booth) & WizardWorld Chicago August 8-11 (I'll have my own table).

A Florida judge recently permitted a class action lawsuit against Waffle House for non-compliant criminal background checks to move forward.
Plaintiff William Jones filed a class action lawsuit against Waffle House in October 2015. Despite having worked for Waffle House "without issue" for more than 20 years, he claims the company denied him a job that he reapplied for based on the results of a background check that showed he had a criminal history.
Jones says Waffle House never notified him that it intended to deny his job application and never provided him with a copy of the background check.
The plaintiff alleges that Waffle House denied applicants for employment based on background checks the company acquired from The Source for Public Data LP, also named as a defendant in the class action lawsuit.
According to the class action lawsuit, Public Data claims it is not a consumer reporting agency but instead just an aggregator of public records. As such, Jones says, the company places the burden on those subject to its reports to correct any errant data at the source. "Public Data does not recognize any duty under the FCRA to correct the data itself," Jones says.
Waffle House filed an appeal to dismiss the proposed FCRA class action against the company, which was subsequently denied by the judge. On August, 2016, Waffle House announced that it will appeal the judge's decision. The judge rejected Waffle House's claims that they had "no recollection or record" of using Public Data to perform a background check.
In its notice of appeal, Waffle House argues that the Plaintiff signed an arbitration agreement when applying for the job and requested that the judge compel arbitration. Following the judge's refusal to dismiss the lawsuit, Waffle House announced that it would seek an appeal to the Eleventh Circuit, citing failures of the Florida court to follow the Federal Arbitration Act.
The above issue is a prime example of why employers should engage the services of an accredited, qualified and experienced consumer reporting agency that provides background screening services. It is especially important to use a CRA that uses only official sources of data and confirms all information from online databases with the courts.
William G. Jones v. Waffle House Inc. et al., case number 6:15-cv-01637, in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida, Orlando Division

Throughout the 19th century, Australian currency was an assortment of foreign coins, promissory notes and rum trades. The gold rush of this era became a pivotal period for Australian society, helping to develop both a form of currency and a unique identity.
The first factory to utilise this gold was the Adelaide Assay Office (established in 1852), which in its short life produced gold ingots and Australia's first gold coin, the Adelaide Pound. As England did not authorise the use of the pound, it soon faded into obscurity and official branches of the Royal Mint opened in Sydney (1855), Melbourne (1872) and Perth (1899).
These mints produced sovereigns and other pre-decimal coins until the Royal Australian Mint opened in 1965 and became the country's sole producer of circulating coins.
One of the most visible legacies of these mints was the single-letter mintmarks, which showed astute collectors the birthplace of their coins.
The Royal Australian Mint will release no more than 5,000 of the 2016 $1 Australia's First Mints C Mintmark Silver Proof Coin.

Loadout is a fast paced game which allows for quick movements. Movement in this game is extremely important.
The BasicsEdit1. Controls:
- WASD - Standard forward/back/strafe movements
- [Shift] - Sprint
- [Ctrl] - Roll
- [Spacebar] - Jump
2. Improved movement abilities:
- Jump Boots - The jump boots can be bought in the tech tree. This equipable item grants for a second mid air jump (double jumping). This is a great item for movement, but it has a short recharge and replaces other offensive gear.
- Juice - The juice allows for increased speed and jump height, which can also be used with the jump boots for increased height.
Advanced movement tipsEdit
Loadout is all about utilizing movement with fast paced combat.
- Jumping right after a dive roll increases the height of the jump (so you can get to more spots in the map using this technique)
- You can jump over many more gaps in the maps than you might think - the trick is to jump just a tiny bit LATER than you would instinctively do. So if you can't make a jump, try the following: run towards the gap and delay the jump-off point for just a bit (when you visually think you must already fall down). Loadout seems to offer the ability to jump in the air if you are close to solid ground...
- Should I use sprinting? Speed is important, so yes, most of the time, you should indeed sprint. However, there are some downsides to sprinting: if you don't sprint and don't shoot/jump/dive roll, you will not be visible on the enemy's radar screens, allowing you to sneak into the enemy base in Jackhammer. (another way to disappear from the enemy's radar is to use the silencer barrel).
- Are you annoyed by having to hold down the sprint key most of the time while playing the game? One solution is to use the config screen to bind the W key to *both* forward movement AND sprinting. This will however still require you to hold down shift if you want to run sideways or backwards... Also, you lose the ability to walk forward (because you will always be running). Another solution is to install an external keyboard software that will constantly press down the sprint key for you - and you can toggle it with another key. For instance, you can use the free Autohotkey program and use this script to create a sprint toggle key.
- Should I dive roll? On the one hand, it makes your hitbox smaller (so you are harder to hit) and it offers increased jumping height/distance, but the downside is that if you use a charged weapon, or a spooling weapon, you should generally avoid dive rolling because it cancels your weapon charge/spool time. Also, If an enemy uses fire weapons and you start to burn, you should dive roll: Rolling reduces 1.3 seconds of burning time per roll.
- Each weapon has a hip fire accuracy stat and an aim accuracy stat (meaning if you use your weapon's scope, you get an increased accuracy, but you can't run while using the scope. So when you are creating a weapon, you should carefully consider whether you will be using it mostly with scope or not in order to focus on the right gun statistics.

The Eclectic Workshop
My Blog
10' Longboard Build
I built this board back in 2011. I ended up selling it as the rocker was a bit too flat for my liking. It's a blue tint over EPS (styrofoam) foam. Glassed with double 6 oz on the top and 6oz on the bottom, using epoxy Resin Research. I made the blank from scratch from blockfoam, I used a power planer and handtools to remove all the bulk foam, this was before I had a hotwire cutter. Single fin with fins unlimited fin box.
Dimensions were 10' long, 21" wide and 2.75" thick
This board had no problems getting into waves early, here is a video of me actually surfing it on it's maiden, even tho I'm not a great surfer lol

"The sides exchanged views on a number of vital international issues, in particular the Syrian settlement in the context of holding the Syrian National Dialogue Congress in Sochi and also the situation around the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action on the Iranian nuclear program," the ministry said.
The US announced Sunday that it will work, along with a coalition of its allies purportedly fighting Daesh, with US-backed armed forces of the so-called Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) to set up a new 30,000-strong "border security" force.
Washington's border force plan drew angry reactions from both Syria and Russia, with Damascus describing it as a "blatant assault" on its sovereignty.
The foreign ministers also discussed the drafting of the Convention on the legal status of the Caspian Sea. The document is expected to be signed at the upcoming 5th Caspian summit in Kazakhstan.
The Caspian Sea Convention will determine the territorial rights of littoral states as well as other matters related to the world's largest landlocked body of water.
The question of defining the legal status of Caspian Sea reopened after the collapse of the Soviet Union, when the emergence of new subjects of international law, namely Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan as states, raised the question of demarcation of the Caspian Sea among the five countries.

Owen Paul to perform with British Electric Foundation at Rewind North 2017!
Photographs used with permission by Noble PR.
Ahead of Rewind North Festival 2017, Sarah caught up with singer-songwriter Owen Paul as he gets ready to perform onstage with the British Electric Foundation this Summer…
As soon as you speak to Owen, you cannot help but smile. His enthusiasm for music, for audiences around the world and for Rewind Festival radiates in every word of our conversation:
"The Rewind Festivals are brilliant. The audiences have grown up with the stuff from the eighties; whether its from their school years or the years after. They get to have a weekend away where they can relive their youth and it's brilliant to be part of. I'm very much looking forward to it".
Performing at Rewind North Festival as part of The British Electric Foundation (founded by Martyn Ware back in the early eighties), Owen explains how this incredible opportunity first arose:
"I had mutual friends of the guys from Heaven 17, so I'd never actually met Martyn Ware or Glenn Gregory. I was approached by Martyn to see if I would be interested in doing it and of course I was - They're brilliant guys and brilliant musicians; creators of brilliant music. I'm one of about four or five guests, so for example there'll be me, Glen Matlock, Peter Hook and Claudia Brucken. If you've seen it before, then you'll know how it works. Everyone sings their most famous song, but the song has been treated in a kind of electronic style. Then we get to sing one other song, which is a surprise so I'm not going to tell you that one. Then we all get together for the finale and sing a song together, which is great, but I'm not going to tell you that song either! (Laughs)"
Intrigued by the surprise song Owen would be performing along with BEF, fans (including myself!) will have to wait until the day to find out what it will be:
"You've just got to wait until the moment. Everyone knows I'm going to sing 'My Favourite Waste of Time' of course, but there will be one other surprise song I perform as well!"
Discussing the iconic track 'My Favourite Waste of Time', it's incredible to think that this beloved song celebrated its thirtieth anniversary last year, as Owen explains:
"For a long time I hadn't even realised it was the song's thirtieth anniversary [last year]. There were a few people I was working with who said we should do a new version for the thirtieth anniversary, but treat it using new recording techniques. We started off by doing a slightly slower, electronic version and then we were approached by an American company who had heard one of the new versions and said they'd love to do a few dance remixes. Then before I knew it, it was going up the American charts and then we got a Number One in January, which was awesome!"
Asking Owen how it feels to know that 'My Favourite Waste of Time' is still loved by fans across the world, he adds:
"You realise what the song means to everyone and that it was a big part of people's lives. Then you get to do it at places like Rewind Festival and everybody dresses up for the occasion - it's just such a brilliant thing to be part of and I'm very proud of the record".
So what can audiences expect at Rewind Festival? Owen summed up the atmosphere perfectly:
"Fun, sing-along and an exciting day"
Owen Paul will perform as part of the British Electric Foundation at Rewind North Festival 2017, on Sunday 6th August 2017.

This is a very sexy little thong, and is well made. The only thing to flag up is that it is extremely small.
Thanks very much for an informative review.

The Contribution of Education to Economic Growth in the State of Michigan. Final Report.
Chase, John S.; Miller, James L., Jr.
To determine the nature and extent of education's contribution to State and national economic growth and the migration patterns of Michigan college and university graduates, 4,700 questionnaires were mailed to the 1951-61 graduates of public universities in Michigan. The questionnaire was designed to provide background demographic data, preferences for residing in Michigan, perceptions of Michigan as a place in which to work and live, and actual migration patterns subsequent to earning the degree specified in their questionnaires. Analysis of responses from 46 percent of the population showed that education contributed 5 percent to the economic growth of the State, whereas the comparable figure for the nation as a whole was 23 percent. A large part of the difference was due to the adjustments applied to the basic data at a national level, which was not undertaken at the State level because comparable data were not available. A more accurate analysis should be made when additional data are available, but this analysis shows the effect of the methodology on the results. (BC)

Robinson Preserve Paddle is a 4.7 mile lightly trafficked loop trail located near Cortez, Florida that features a lake and is good for all skill levels. The trail offers a number of activity options and is accessible year-round. Dogs are also able to use this trail but must be kept on leash.
dogs on leash
kid friendly
nature trips
paddle sports
This is definetly my go to trip!! It is truly the best paddle in Florida because you can kayak and stand up paddle board the route. This " No Motor Zone" nature preserve is a safe protected way to see what the great outdoors is all about and a skinny water fisherman's paradise found! Great for first time paddlers and enthusiasts alike. You can pack a lunch and take a detour or two and make a good half day of it.
nice place
Love it
One of my favorite places to kayak. I highly recommend it!
This is an awesome trail. We went out into the Gulf by the Sunshine Skyway and it was totally worth it because three dolphins swam right next to us!! The facilities are very well maintained- the bathrooms are clean and you can wash your kayaks after you're done. Lots of birds and wildlife and the best part is you can get off your kayak and go up the watch tower. Excellent and amazing views!

I ended up sitting in the car for an extra ten minutes this morning listening to an interview with Dr. Matthew Sleeth, who has written several books discussing how the Bible focuses on caring for the earth. It's wonderful to hear people talking about how intimately connected being a Christian and caring for the environment are--I'd like to read his book! Find his website here, or read the write-up from his website about his new book The Gospel According to Earth below:
"As an emergency room doctor, Matthew Sleeth saw a disturbing increase in asthma, autoimmune diseases, cancers, and other environmentally related health issues. Although he considered himself an environmentalist, he lacked the commitment to do anything about it. One slow night in the ER, Sleeth picked up a Gideon's Bible in the waiting room. Although raised in a Christian home, he had long ago abandoned his childhood beliefs. Reading the gospels that night, Sleeth became a Christian, and to his shock, he began to uncover in the Scriptures an enormous wealth of environmental answers that he had been seeking. As a result, his family took an account of their lifestyle, drastically reduced their reliance on electricity and fossil fuels, and began sharing their inspirational journey with others. Here, Sleeth invites you on his family's journey as they realize that one cannot be a Christian without recognizing the Bible's call to care for God's creation.
"From Genesis to Revelation, the Bible is filled with instructions on how we can demonstrate our love for the Creator by caring for the earth. Sleeth leads us on a highly creative journey through Scripture, visiting some of the most important characters in the Bible and discovering what they can teach us about issues such as stewardship, caring for our neighbors, and pollution. Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden teach us the importance of physical work in relation to discovering fulfillment and a sense of human purpose, the prophet Daniel calls us to question our dietary habits, and the story of Noah addresses key issues for life on earth: how do we relate to the Creator, to others in the human community, and to the rest of the natural world? With passion and faith, Sleeth provides a new green lens through which we can read the Bible to discover answers to our biggest questions about the environment and how to care for it."

Step Up 4: Miami Heat (2012)
August 11, 2012 1 Comment
Generating hits through a series of elaborate flash-mobs, waiter Sean (Ryan Guzman) and dance crew The Mob are well on their way to winning a YouTube competition (and the prize money that comes with it) when he meets Emily (Kathryn McCormick), an aspiring dancer looking to make it into a prestigious school. New to Miami, Emily's real-estate tycoon father is looking to redevelop the group's neighbourhood, leading them – at Emily's suggestion – to turn their performances into a form of protest. With The Mob's help, Sean and Emily set out to convince the city council to overturn the proposed plans and, in the process, win Emily a place on her course.
Ever since the Step Up franchise began back in 2006, somersaulting Channing Tatum into the A-list, multiplexes have played host to innumerable rip-offs and imitators looking to cash in on the series' popularity. Despite the StreetDances and Honeys, however, Step Up has managed to stay ahead of the game through three sequels, delivering in terms of both box office receipts and genuine, no-holds-barred spectacle. While the story has stayed the same – Romeo shows Juliet how to really move – the showcase of stand-out performers and amazing choreography has been enough to keep audiences coming back for more. Even if this fourth instalment does rely on set pieces even more than usual.
It goes without saying that Step Up 4: Miami Heat is almost as predictable as they come, a short-lived rebellious streak doing little to camouflage the paper-thin story and blink-and-you'll-miss it characterisation. You know from the very beginning that both dancers will have to set aside their differences in order to save their neighbourhood because that's exactly what happened in just about every other dance movie ever made. It doesn't help that the story's anti-establishment message is mindlessly jettisoned in favour of a slightly more conservative finale, one that serves as an unfortunate reminder of just how shallow our protagonists actually are.
To make things worse, Ryan Guzman and Kathryn McCormick are two of the weakest leads the franchise has yet had to offer, with the continued absence of Tatum (or even first sequel's Briana Evigan) once again sorely felt. While both are animated enough during each dance number, such intermittent verve only serves to frame their lack of personality during the film's few quieter scenes, as they fail to bring any depth to the roles of professional dance-mobber and angsty billionairess respectively. Nobody in the ensemble really stands out, with even The O.C.'s Peter Gallagher (who also appeared in the similarly themed Burlesque) struggling to breathe any life into the film's makeshift villain. Indeed, if it hadn't been for the handful of returning players, lead by Adam G. Sevani's Robert "Moose" Alexander III, I doubt the cast would have made any impression whatsoever.
So far so negative, but I really don't mean to be. Character, plot and originality are of course all really important, and Step Up 4: Miami Heat is unlikely to receive any critical recognition at all, but this is summer, and sometimes there is more to cinema than smarts and subtext. This is a film for pleasure seekers, a peerless platform for performers whose talents admittedly lie beyond traditional acting. In a summer dominated by darkness and green screen, it's refreshing to see a movie so comparatively care-free and which relies to admirably on practical effects. Whether climbing out of paintings, marching down escalators or jumping off of cargo crates, this is a movie which makes the most of the medium, duly popping eyes in 3D.
It all comes down to what you want from your movies. Step Up 4: Miami Heat has little depth, substance or personality to offer, its sole attempt at making a statement fizzling out by the end, but it's so beautifully shot, so intricately choreographed and so undeniably impressive that that hardly even matters.

Henri SELMER Paris launches a new brand SeleS to complete its range of musical instruments, respecting the values held by the SELMER family since the creation of the company in 1885.
To respond to the ever-changing needs of musicians, Henri SELMER Paris now offers, with its SeleS brand, a range of instruments adapted to various budgets.
The Seles Axos is made in the Selmer factory located in Mantes-la-Ville, France, in the same factory as all other Selmer models since 1922. This model continues the tradition of craftsmanship manufacturing integrating new industrial techniques. Aiming to make quality instruments available to a greater number of musicians, the Axos provides playing comfort with its specially adapted keywork as well as great mechanical reliability.
The Axos brings with it the heritage of over a century of history and technical knowledge from Henri SELMER Paris, the world leader in saxophone design and production.
Staff Reviews:
"Having had a blow on the Seles Axos this afternoon, I have to say that I'm very impressed with it. For me, it has a medium resistance, typical of Selmer saxes in general – this sax will be heavily compared with YAS62 and AW01 as it's in the same price bracket, and having played a few phrases on all three back to back you really notice that the two Japanese models have a lot more 'pop' and 'ripeness' to the sound, generally their sound is very immediate. The Axos has a little more resistance, and as a result that iconic 'Selmer sound' comes out – having compared it to both Series II and III you can hear the difference, although to me it's much closer to a Series II, but perhaps without the same drive and absolute fullness, however, it's very close. My immediate reaction was that I felt like I was playing on a Selmer Paris saxophone, but for only two thirds the price, which is really impressive! They have managed to retain that depth of tone and lushness that you associate with French Selmer." - email@example.com
"It is interesting to see a brand as established as Selmer broadening out to the intermediate level. I do feel the Selmer Seles alto really does bring something new to the table which it principal competitors, the Yamaha YAS 62 and Yanagisawa AW01, do not have.
The Seles has all the good qualities of a Selmer sax for just £2,070; the key work, layout and the 'Selmer sound' ; these really have been crafted into this horn. Personally I found it darker than the Yani and also slightly smoother. The classical fraternity will be able to relate to it immediately and I can see it being a hit with the jazz community too (there's a lot of the Super Action 80 here). A very enjoyable instrument to play and had a fantastic response to everything I threw at it, especially in the altissimo register.
Overall I feel Selmer have done more than enough to compete and create a sax at the same price bracket as the Yamaha 62 and the Yanagisawa AW01. It should really make people re-consider their options when upgrading their student instrument'.
Anyone looking for to move on from their student sax really owes it to themselves to trying out one of the Seles Axos- not only a great sax but one offering something distinctly different from the pack. A very classy addition to our range." - email@example.com

The Next Topic and Previous Topic buttons don't work as expected. For example, if I navigate to several topics and click Previous Topic, I expect to see the most recent topic that I viewed (similar to using the Back button in a browser to see the previous page). However, the Previous button is either not available or takes the user to a random topic, and the Next Topic never brings up the next topic.
I inherited this project, my first experience with RH9, and so am not sure whether the previous author included something in the project to make the buttons show up or whether these buttons are part of the default WebHelp interface. I've looked in the Single Source Layout properties for each output, but don't see any place to specify info about these buttons.
As you'll see in the screen capture, this is not about Browse sequences (I saw that there were other questions about Next and Previous as related to Browse sequences).
All help appreciated because this bug was found by QA and they'd like to fix the problem in the next patch ...
Those buttons above the TOC are buttons for the browse sequence. And that would explain their behaviour.
Do you mean any other buttons? Am I missing something?
Thanks, William.
I thought that the Browse sequence buttons were related to the breadcrumbs in each topic pane. I guess I have to create a browse sequence then for each of the five TOCs. I'll look in the Help for more info.

If there's a market for the NHL in the Baltimore area, the Washington Capitals are going to find it.
No longer feeling hand-tied thanks to the departure of the Skipjacks, the Capitals for the first time are beginning to market the team in Baltimore, hoping to entice area residents to Landover in the same fashion -- but likely on a lesser scale -- as the Orioles have lured Washington-area fans to Camden Yards.
"It is an intriguing proposition," said Capitals general manager David Poile. "We'd certainly like to be more of a regional team than we are."

While he's been home from college on Christmas break my son, Aaron, helped me select a netbook for blogging and writing on the go. It arrived a couple of days ago, Aaron installed the software I needed, and today I took it to work with me. About ten o'clock I texted Aaron to tell him how much I loved my new friend.
me: I love my little netbook. I'm going to name him Irving, sew him cute clothes, and take him with me everywhere.
Aaron: Lol i feel like i should send that to everyone i know and see what kind of reaction i get
me: Feel free. I've been introducing him to my coworkers all day long!
Aaron: Lol you're such a dork 😛
me: Love you, too! >^.,.^<
Aaron: Lol
It's nice to know my children find me entertaining 🙂
More on Irving soon . . .

Friday Bird Blogging: Backyard Edition
Check out what I found foraging in my backyard this week:
I know, it's the worst possible picture, but I could only get as close as the kitchen window. I feel like a Bigfoot hunter. "Really, it was right there in my backyard. See, I have this blurry photo!" In case this makes it any more apparent:
Is it a Cooper's Hawk or Sharp-Shinned? Not like anyone can tell from the photo; everyone will just have to take my word for it. It's likely not exciting to many, but I've never seen a bird of prey up close, so I was ecstatic. If the RSPB Geltsdale nature reserve has any influence, we might see more like them in the future. Hooray for the Baby Boom for Birds of Prey!
Of course, wild fauna are captivating, but what Friday Bird Blogging would be complete without a glimpse of the rare and majestic Martingale enjoying a stroll in the backyard?
