The days just sort of run together. Each evening I check what my training plan is for the next day. Then I check the weather. I also consider my energy level and sync it with my training plan. I'm going to get it all done, but I need to figure where I will need the most energy and what will be the easiest or toughest part of my day. I consider my cycling sessions the most important. Swimming is the most fun, and my runs are on a beautiful Rails to Trails path that is mostly shaded.
The volume is picking up but is not an issue yet. Cycling the hills is the biggest challenge. That is where I need the most energy. If I'm a little bit fresh I can climb some of the easier hills a little better now. But the steep and long hills are still giving me problems.
One of the things I am learning as I ride my bike each day is where and when to shift. The trouble comes when I am in my easiest gear and not anywhere near the top.
I've been employing some simple mantras on some of these challenging hills. I say to myself, "I'm okay, I'm okay, I'm okay". My breathing is so heavy at these times I start to feel anxious. I'm trying to accept the slower cadence and harder effort.
I think I have made a discovery about myself. I don't like the slower cadence and the slower pace so I spin up the hill in an easy gear. If it's a tough hill it won't really be spinning. I'm still pushing hard on the pedals and I'm moving very slow. But there is a 'sweet spot' as my coach says where my effort is just about right for the challenge. If I'm in too easy a gear, it actually takes more energy than if I have some resistance. I'm learning to feel for that sweet spot.
We are only here for two more weeks, so I feel the need to focus hard on every single ride to get the most out of my opportunity here. When I get home there are no hills and I will be focusing on distance and time.
Swimming I love the most. We swim in Meadowbrook pool, possibly the best pool on the East coast. That's not to say the swimming is not hard work, but I love the challenge. There is an indoor and an outdoor 50 m pool. It is bulkheaded into several 25 yd lanes plus still several 50 m lanes.
Meadowbrook is a huge facility. They sponsor a great swim team (North Baltimore Swim team) with all levels of hopefuls, a summer swim camp for young kids and open areas for people who just want to have fun in the water and always open lanes for members. I can always find a lane to get in my swim workouts. One of the things I love about Meadowbrook is the number of Seniors that are good swimmers and swim regularly. Everyone I have met has been extremely friendly. I'm considering moving to Maryland just so I can swim at Meadowbrook. :)
I have done a couple 4 hr bike rides, 2000 m swims are the norm and I have to talk to myself and focus lot on the 1.5 hr runs.
I know how important all this is right now. It will increase considerably so like going to school, it's important to learn this years material because next year you will build on what you already know... assuming you know it.
Today has been a rest day. I have learned to rest on rest day. I can't do the work next week if I don't take a break one day a week.
So until next time...

Hamilton's Monza pole for Mercedes, clinched in dramatic fashion amid torrential rain, was the 69th of the three-time world champion's Formula One career.
"It's very hard to find the words to explain how I feel, I'm trying to figure it all out," said Hamilton afterwards. "It probably won't sink in for a long time. It was an epic day, I feel truly blessed.
"The Red Bulls really made me work hard for the pole today, which I'm grateful for. The weather has obviously been incredibly tricky for us all. What a day to come here in this beautiful country with the English weather and to be massively challenged.
"It was very difficult to see out there, and very easy to make mistakes - as always in the rain. The second to last lap was okay at the beginning, but then I backed out of it, hoping that I'd get one more lap.
"There was a lot of pressure for that last lap - there could have been a red flag, there could have been a yellow flag. There was a lot of risk, but I gave it everything."
Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff hailed his driver's historic performance, saying: "It was a brilliant lap, after a session where he was the quickest man throughout, and it was undoubtedly a performance worthy of claiming the all-time pole position record."
Hamilton's team mate Valtteri Bottas failed to conquer the tricky conditions in quite the same fashion, finishing sixth after struggling to make his wet tyres work. However, grid penalties for both Red Bulls mean the Finn will start Sunday's race from fourth on the grid.

Being a voice for the people
This may sound almost too simple, because for years we have accustomed to the double talk, lies, jokes, and the stereotypical politician. I am not, nor intend to be that stereotype.
I have the personal integrity to bring the level of honesty and respect back to the office. I intend on being that voice regardless of party, or push against what is best for both the people of Tennessee and this great nation.
My core values of honor, courage, and commitment will speak for me as I speak for those without a voice.
- Honor, in knowing I am serving the people, bringing their voice back in their representation on the floors of congress, where and when it is needed.
- Courage, in the face of adversity, and saying what needs to be said regardless if it is unpopular. Sometimes the hardest thing, is to be upfront and honest, but is something we need to happen again.
- Commitment, to the people of my district, but also to all the people of Tennessee, and this nation as a whole. This nation was built on the individual having the power, and voice, not a nation of the corrupt.
All voices will hold value regardless of party, wealth, race, or any factor one may feel is holding them back. We will establish a line of communication by:
- I will retain an open line of communication through my offices for all general questions, comments, and criticism.
- I will maintain scheduled dates and times through my offices for one on one response to individuals to assure I am personally available to the people.
- I will work with local mayors and city officials to established town hall style discussion forums to open the floor to the general public.
- I will maintain scheduled meetings with local figure heads and community leaders, to assure there is reliable feedback from within the community.
- I will to the best of my ability (within law, and security requirements) post links to bills and other actions presented for the peoples feedback in a timely manner to research topics, and to allow proper discussion.
- I will send regular mail outs and social media post to provide as much open access as possible (within law, and security requirements).

LA-versary :: Guest Post + Giveaway Recap
At the risk of sounding cliche, I'm pretty sure I bit off more than I could chew in September. Between my spending diet, my food diet, my Austin trip (to see the bestie Chris + cousin Joe), a surprise visitor in LA (my lovely little cousin Nikki), a painful day at urgent care (eternal thankyous to my mother who provided the co-pay + deductible and roommate Sergio who paid for my prescriptions) plus the usual workload, workouts, + blogging and let's not forget other hobbies I'd love to continuously incorporate such as, you know, reading books -- it was a little nutty. Somehow, I've managed to also have a slight social life, despite the fact that people are generally flaky and I haven't had disposable income or the freedom to drink alcohol.
Overall, though, the month was a healthy mix of good and bad, and I'm starting to learn -- finally, as I approach 27 years of age -- that that's just the way life is. It can never truly be perfect, and that's okay. As a perfectionist who can be even harder on herself than others, that's a difficult concept to grasp.
Somehow, I assumed that after a rough summer, things would turn around in autumn; but I don't think God's tests for me are over, and as long as they are causing me to become a stronger, better person -- how can I complain? I suppose I had been waiting for things to get better, instead of making the most of what I had. Normally I'm an upbeat person who sees the good in every situation, but I became emotionally lazy for awhile, and chose the easier route of allowing negative situations to overwhelm me. I'm ready to look at life in a different, brighter light. Again.
I guess what I'm getting at is: I'm grateful. I'm grateful that I have a stable roof over my head, healthy food in my fridge, an abundance of clothes in my closet, lungs that breathe and legs that walk. I'm grateful that I still have a job, and an awesome boss and wonderful, hilarious co-workers. I'm grateful to live in a city that averages 292 days of sunshine per year. I'm grateful for my family that are spread all over the world -- Michigan, Alabama, Texas, Virginia, Poland. I'm grateful for my acquaintances, my friends, my best friends and blog friends; people that I've known for years or just met or maybe haven't even met yet.
LA can swallow you whole if you let it, and it's been trying to hold me down for the last four years. Even though I've thought about moving -- Austin is now #1 on my list -- I'm not yet ready to give up. I think I'll give it another year of battle, and then we'll see. Five is a nice, round number. But only God knows what the future really holds.
Now then, it's time to focus back on the present. And presently, I am happy. And I'm ready to give you a nice recap of the amazing guest posts and giveaways that fellow bloggers provided here as part of my LA-versary celebration! Be sure to enter the giveaways ASAP -- they're ending soon! Thanks again to all of you who partied with me this month, here on the blog -- sans booze, of course. Wink!

Bobby and I are rooted to this inviting and enchanting, yet sometimes harsh corner of the world. The Mad River Valley is where we married, standing barefoot near to the stream of my grandparent's house, surrounded by ferns and birch bark. Lush moss was coming up between our toes as we said our vows, connecting us to the solemn earth of Vermont.
We're not the only people who've married in Vermont. Lisabeth Magoun, a family friend, and owner of American Flatbread and Lareau Farm Inn tells us that she caters weddings every weekend from May to October. The Valley boasts a robust cottage wedding industry. In fact, every couple I know who married in Vermont, are still happily together. Hmmm.
People should celebrate this magical place and by extension celebrate each other. You don't vacation here to re-create your routine away from home. You come to immerse in the limitless experiences unique to the area, to enjoy the pace of life, and to meet the local Vermonters who live that life to the fullest. For those who do visit, I hope you feel the underlying current of energy that makes this place glow. It springs from inside the mix of sophisticated, industrious, and entrepreneurial people who work like dogs to keep new business ventures going and evolving, while embodying the values of Vermont, such as "keeping Vermont weird."
Take our friend, Lisabeth, for example. We shared a cup of tea by her fireplace and talked about my hospital clown work, and about how her restaurant, American Flatbread, brings cheese pizza to the McDonald's unit of the children's hospital in Middlebury, VT. She talked about how the kids love it because every kid loves pizza and hospital food is, well, hospital food. She raved about the organic and local ingredients they use. It's impressive how good quality food is a staple here!
People here talk about businesses struggling, lots of turnover in the Valley, and poor ski seasons. But, new places are opening too. Ashley Woods, another family friend, and our wedding caterer inspires us with her perspective about how the Valley will go on, and everything has a natural ebb and flow. We were happy to see they received 30" of snow just days after we left. A welcomed gift for the winter season, but people are also looking forward to spring! They are ready for the music festivals, biking, hiking, and sharing of memories over the best local cuisine and beer made from mountain spring water. Ashley is as cool as a cucumber. A true Vermonter and an amazing chef. Her new restaurant Home Plate is doing well and starting new trends in the food world but is still full of local charm.
Interestingly, speaking with people who live in Vermont is one of the draws for tourists. The folks of this state have excellent taste in music. They are well read and educated. The stellar cuisine of the Valley prompts you to seek it out and chat those who craft it. There are no fast food restaurants, but plenty of local joints with homemade food ready to go. Everywhere is chill and full of real human interaction. The peace and tranquility are palpable here. You see and feel it in the jutting mountains and pristine lakes, but you also hear it in the bright, booming voices of locals like Babe Hall, caretaker of my grandparent's house. This big lumberjack of a man talked about seeing the smoke pouring out of our chimney and smiling, thinking about what a great time Bobby and I must be having. He said, "that's what it's for, this place." Babe talks about the weather like it's an old friend and is up almost every day at 7 am, to plow out his neighbors.
Having a good time is easy to do in Vermont. During the cold season, come ski your heart out and then rest by a warm, quintessential fireplace. Behold the power of the weather. Witness a snow squall at 6 am and the howling wind blowing down the mountain into the valley, bringing in three inches of snow in an hour. Relish the silence afterward, when the snow has blanketed the ground.
Spring fast approaches, and soon you'll be enjoying the soundtrack of Vermont, complete with the chirps of animals and the sound of the Mad River running through the entire valley. And the soundtrack is not complete without the locals, with beaming smiles, big hugs, and lots to say. Do you want to talk local? We've got three tips. Take the time to stop and gab, have a sense of humor and be willing to try or have already skied Mad River Glen...if you can.
And while you're there, why not go ahead and tie the knot. We'd love to be with you photographing the whole thing!

Mental Health Association of Associations Meeting
On August 29th, MHA of AZ held its Association of Associations meeting. This session's topic was Behavioral Health Integration in Arizona. Starting on October 1, 2018, AHCCCS intends to offer fully integrated contracts to manage the whole individual. AHCCCS envisions these Integrated Contractors offering behavioral health and physical health services to children and adult AHCCCS members not determined to have SMI.

November Grocery Totals
Total Spent On Food: $238. 04
Manufactures Coupons Used: $191.50
Store Savings: $239.90
A great month for me, but November gets a boost from eating with family a lot.....and stocking up on all the great Thanksgiving sales that the stores had. It helped, too, that I was given a bunch of Albertsons doublers from kindhearted people, freezer cooked and used cash for all my spending.
Now, if I could just own a dairy cow to help with all those related items......would I save by the time I cared for it, etc? I'm serious-if you could answer this for me-and I know at least one person who knows the answer to this!

Um, the answer to the dairy cow question is a decisive 'no'. Enjoy the romantic savings in your head...ReplyDelete
But then again, perhaps you could use the poo in your garden....do you have enough grass clippings from your lawn to feed it? Maybe you could put B&M's grass into silage, which is salted, packed and fermente so you could make it through the winter because let me tell you, hay and grain can get expensive. Are you going to install a vaccuum-driven milking unit or do you plan to 'farm' the kids out for a more 'hand-crafted' form of labor on this twice daily event? Three times if you want to increase production...then there's the cost of of the separator, storage tank and cooling...better get out of debt quick so you can start saving up!
Haha!! Go to the store. Pay the price. Smile, because Moo never looked so good on you!
Heehee! I'm such an optimist...and we'd house her out at the in-laws (only they don't know that). I pretty much figured the answer was NO, but a gal can hope...kind of like my beekeeper dreams. After some sound advice from two beekeepers, that was axed as well. I was so ready to save up my blow money and forge ahead, but alas reality (and cost)set in. Thanks for the eloquent, funny answer:)ReplyDelete

It remains to be seen whether guests staying at Amtrak's 72-room hotel proposed for Baltimore's Pennsylvania Station will have their nocturnal reveries disturbed by the parade of rumbling trains or by gurgling MARC diesel locomotives idling overnight.
However, there was once a time when railroads built, owned and operated hostelries for the convenience of passengers. For Amtrak, the Penn Station project would mark its entrance into the hotel business.
In the late 19th century, the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad began building hotels along its route. The railroad completed three in Maryland, none of which is extant today, during the administration of B&O presidents John Work Garrett and Robert W. Garrett from 1858 to 1887.

The TippingCircle integration with wedjinni was a piece of cake. We couldn't imagine a faster and error-free integration with a third-party application. Now [our] users can exchange data like working on a single app!
(PRWEB) August 21, 2013
Since the launch of TippingCircle's API back in May 2013, developers have implemented effective ways to use social payments within their apps. The API, TippingCircle writes, is a "hybrid API containing both OAuth and simple authentication based on the endpoint to support both easy and deep integrations."
Companies and developers are integrating because TippingCircle offers a social payment profile with the ability to exchange money with basically anyone in over 190 countries worldwide. This platform creates an attractive personal payment experience that adds value to any application using it. The tip (or exchange of money) draws attention to the fun time friends spend together, rather than the money exchange itself. Users can also view one another's profiles to find tipping buckets that their friends are passionate about and support the cause.
Wedjinni, a magical wedding tool for couples and wedding professionals, early on saw the benefits of using group payments within their wedding software to facilitate money-based gifts using tipping buckets. Wedding buckets are passed around the social networks collecting contributions from friends and family as the Wedjinni software automatically updates those gifts into their system.
As one of the first to integrate with TippingCircle's API, Theodore Batzakas, the CEO of Wedjinni said the following about the experience, "The TippingCircle integration with wedjinni was a piece of cake. We couldn't imagine a faster and error-free integration with a third-party application. Now TippingCircle and Wedjinni users can exchange data like working on a single app!"
As discovered in the wedding industry, social payments unlock new possibilities for apps in many different spaces. From social networking apps to event management to online gaming, TippingCircle's API has proven to be a great resource for developers to easily implement social payments within their applications.
One thing to keep in mind is that, in order to obtain access to the API, one first needs to provide details about their application and go through a quick approval process. There are different levels of permissions to the API where it's very easy to gain access to the top level API verses the low level that provides more protected functions of the system that require a user's authorization.

This recipe for frozen fruit pops is pretty diverse and super easy too. You can just chop and change the ingredients in this to make different variations.
Summer is my favourite season, mainly because lots of my favourite fruits are in season, such as blackberries (from May until September). Around the area where we take the dogs for walks there are hoards of blackberries.
As it has been pretty warm lately, frozen yoghurt is the perfect treat to enjoy. My favourite frozen yoghurt that I have made is a Forest Fruits Frozen Yogurt.
Now that summer time is slowly rolling around, it's time to break out the fresher more summery recipes.
Hey, as we all well know the 2016 Wimbledon Tennis Championships are being held from June 27th to July 10th. This is the sporting event that everyone talks about, even if you don't like tennis.
I found this great recipe for an easy strawberry cheesecake was from Nigella Lawson's website and I have put my own little twist on it.

I have always loved reading near-death experiences. The interaction between humans and beings beyond the veil is fascinating to me. I have devoured these stories, beginning with one of the best, Return from Tomorrow, by George Ritchie, then continuing on with Raymond Moody's books and others that have been written in the last 2 decades or so. Recently, Visions of Glory gave me so much to think about, that I haven't felt to seek out more NDE books. It's the first time I've been able to get a glimpse of what it might be like to get from here to the city of Zion. And even more to the point, what it takes to become a person who can live there, with Christ. Ruminating on these ideas led to the following hymn text, which earned Special Recognition in the 2015 LDS Music Contest.
Behold, How the Splendor of Zion Arises
by Laurel R. Frost
Behold, how the splendor of Zion arises;
The gospel sweeps over the earth, as foretold.
The Savior commissions His minist'ring servants
To gather the righteous, the sheep of His fold.
Obedience ever to follow the Spirit
Will bring us back into God's presence again,
And nothing on earth can compare with such rapture;
How small will seem all of our sacrifice then!
For Jesus will dwell in the midst of His people;
Temptation and sorrow forever will cease.
Then we will be Zion, with no poor among us,
The City of Holiness, glory, and peace.
And, lo, in her grandeur, the city of Enoch
Descends as we join them to worship Him Crowned,
And surely among Father's endless creations
A happier people will never be found.
Give me a heart that delighteth in Zion.
Give me a soul that finds joy in Thy word.
Give me glad feet that make haste to Thy bidding,
And eyes single but to Thy glory, O Lord.

On Thursday, November 24th, the 'city' of The Mall Athens was illuminated during the most impressive Inauguration Event ever held in Athens. The Mall Athens, the largest international-calibre shopping and leisure centre in Greece and amongst the largest in Southeastern Europe, welcomed the first 2,000 visitors during a radiant celebration of lights and entertainment, inaugurating a new era in the daily life of Athens.
Offering approximately 200 retail and entertainment choices in an area of nearly 58.500 m2 and 90,000 m2 of underground space, The Mall Athens constitutes a unique "product" for the Greek business and consumer markets. For the first time, all age groups will have the opportunity to enjoy numerous combinations of innovative shopping and entertainment options all strategically located in Maroussi, the 'heart' of Attica, and one of the most easily accessible suburbs from every direction.
The Mall Athens, the one and only authentic mall of Attica, is expected to become the main attraction point for the Athenian public. For the first time, one single destination offers: the largest and most renowned retail chains, restaurants, a food court, innovative multiplex cinemas, entertainment areas, special children's facilities, numerous assistance services, ample storage space and a 2,065 parking capacity.
The Mall Athens was developed by LAMDA Olympia Village (subsidiary company of LAMDA Development), whilst the Centre will be managed by ECE-LAMDA Hellas S.A. More than 2,500 jobs are expected to be created from the operation of the Centre.
During the official Inauguration Event, guests were given the opportunity to tour the multiple levels of the The Mall Athens, and admire the brand-new stores and entertainment areas, including internationally renowned brands, a few of which are entering the Greek market for the first time.
The Inauguration Event commenced with welcome addresses from Mr. Apostolos Tamvakakis, President of LAMDA Development, Mr. Panagiotis Tzanikos, Mayor of Maroussi and Mr. Dimitris Sioufas, Minister of Development.
Following the speeches, The Mall Athens transformed into a brilliant "city of lights". Accentuating the impressive multi-level architecture of The Mall Athens, the internationally renowned artist Gert Hof created a unique light-show and firework performance accompanied by musical compositions of Rammstein, the internationally acclaimed German band.
The event concluded with the star of the evening, Sakis Rouvas, who mesmerized guests with a first-time rendition of the all-time favourite song "Fly me to the Moon," * in a jazz composition exclusively composed for the The Mall Athens by composer, Mr. George Niarchos, who directed a 20-member band during the performance.
The Inauguration Event was preceded by an Opening Blessing Ceremony for the Commercial and Leisure Centre with the presence of all the tenants and LAMDA Development executives.
The Mall Athens officially opened to the public on November 25, 2005.

I think of my current relationship. We've been together for over 20 years, lots of good, magical, wonderful, difficult, terrible, sad, happy, amazing memories. But it's done. And all I have are all of these memories. I hope in time, the good memories outweigh the bad. ;) And I love singing harmony at loud volumes while driving and showering ;D xoxo

I HAVE just gone through months of personal hell. No one close to me has known a thing about it -- not my husband, not my three grown children, not my friends or the people I work with.
I held all of the turmoil and fear within me -- panicky thoughts about where to run, bouts of explosive rage, visions of my own slow, painful death. I must have hidden all of this well because no one who knew me said a thing. When I woke up in the middle of the night, I was alone with my nightmares. Completely alone.
Two and a half years ago I did something very stupid. It was an affair that lasted a couple of days with a guy I hardly knew. The sexual tension was powerful, the circumstances were right, and I let go too easily of my usual clear thinking.


text: 341 Meeting of Creditors The meeting of creditors otherwise know as the 341 meeting is for the most part your day in court. If your Bankruptcy hearing is in Oakland County or Wayne you will go to your 341 in Detroit. If you file for bankruptcy in Genesee or Livingston County you will go to court in Flint. IF your bankruptcy is in Washtenaw County you will have your 341 hearing Ann Arbor. For more information on location http://www.mieb.uscourts.gov/ vistin the US Bankruptcy court website. Most bankruptcy attorneys in Michigan will go to court with you and act as a guide at your hearing. What actually happens at this hearing is an identification process. For isntance if your bankruptcy is in Flint usually your hearing will be on a Monday or Thursday. If you file for Bankruptcy in Oakland County and you go to Detroit for your 341 hearing it can be any day of the week. Thre is a big differnce in a 341 in Chapter7 and 341 in Chapter 13. Chapter 13 is a little more detailed and a Chapter 7 has a few basic questions. This is what usually happens, your case is called, you go up and show your social security card and photo ID, they ask you if everything on your bankruptcy paperwork is true, is there any changes, are you employed, can you sue any one. There are a few other questions but every Trustee is different. Bankruptcy attorneys in Flint can take comfort in the fact that there is only one hearing room room, while bankruptcy attorneys in Michigan may have to deal with 2 or 3 hearing going on at once in differernt room. 341 Hearings in Detroit have 4 341 going on at the same time. A lot of people get nervous about the 341 meeting of creditors. It is Federal Court procedure. But the trust is the hearing do not go before a judge but a Bankruptcy trustee who is just an administrator. The Trustee has certain powers but they are not a judge. The term 341 comes form the section in the US bankruptcy Code that governs the hearing. http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/11/341. The biggest thing is having your ID and social security card. Attorneys in Michigan have to email or file to the Trustee copies of your tax returns and paystubs to the trustee 7 days prior to the your 341 meeting. Usually bankruptcy attorneys in Flint email your documents to the trustee or Waye County or Oakland County Bankruptcy attorneys use Collarate a system for documents. Other documents at the meeting of creditors could be a recorded mortgage, car titles, bank statements, divorce decree, land contracts, or 401 k statements. My check list usually requests ♦ Tax returns & Paystubs ♦ Recorded Mortgage & Car titles ♦ Deeds, Bank statements, ♦ 401 (K) OR IRA statements Usually the 341 meeting of Creditors is the only time you will have to appear in Court. But if your case has issues then you will have to appear before a judge in Bankruptcy court.

Dear Fellow Members and Guests,
It is a great pleasure and honour to be elected the 46th President of Greystones RFC, and I hope to fulfil the role to the best if my abilities. I could not carry out the role without the significant support I receive from our Executive Committee and volunteers in the club. My presidency started off very sadly. Our legendary co-founder Eric Archer passed away in June in his 98th year. Eric was a living legend and a true gentleman. He will be sadly missed by all the members of Greystones and the greater rugby family throughout Ireland and further afield. He has left a wonderful legacy which is Greystones RFC. (See Appreciation/Feature in this match programme)
On behalf of Greystones RFC I would like to extend a very warm welcome to all members, supporters, visitors, and match officials that visit Dr Hickey Park.
Congratulations to all concerned for achieving promotion to Division 2A last season. This was a wonderful achievement and the type of rugby played by our team was at times breath-taking, the way rugby should be played. I would like to congratulate Dan Mannion on his appointment as captain for the coming season, and I wish head coach Kevin Lewis, team manager Paul Lennon assistant coaches Warren O'Kelly, Barry Lynn Olan Savage, along with Dan and the squad every success in coming season.
For the coming season I would like to encourage more players to continue to play rugby, to enjoy all the benefits of taking part in a team sport and to help strengthen our Junior Rugby Squad. I also wish our Managers, Coaches, Players of our 2nds, 3rds, Under 20s, Seagulls and Women's team every success in the coming season.
Our youth section continues to thrive and great credit must go to Keith O'Brien and his army of coaches and volunteers. Keith is stepping down as Youth Director and on behalf of all members I want to thank him for a magnificent job well done. I wish Paddy McCann new Youth Director every success in the coming season.
All our sponsors, corporate and individual are a vital part of our club. Heatons who sponsored us for the last 3 years are stepping down and I would like to thank John O'Neill for their sponsorship. We are very fortunate to be able to welcome Peter and Ross Doyle Bloodstock Ltd as our new main sponsors. Peter is a former player and Past President and Ross is a former player. On behalf of everyone in Greystones RFC I would like to thank them for their generous sponsorship. I would also like to thank all our other sponsors and I would encourage all member support them in their business whenever possible.
I mentioned at our AGM that the main theme of my presidency would be to encourage more members to be volunteers. In a recent Survey the IRFU identified over 60 roles that need to be filled from membership secretary to referees coordinator, youth coaches etc . Most roles can be managed with a commitment of just 2-4 hours per week. For far too long too few have been doing too much and we need more volunteers to spread the load. As the saying goes 'Many hands make light work'.
May I extend a very warm welcome to Greystones RFC and I look forward to seeing you support all our teams at every level. .
Fran Nolan, President,
Greystones RFC 2017-18

Zeus vs. Corn on the cobb
Ok...Now that it's over,(not yet laughable), I'd like to take a moment and send out a warning to all dog owners about corn on the cobb. Which, by the way, is now forbidden in my household. About 3 weeks ago I was scraping off the dinner plates into the garbage, Zeus' favorite time of the day, when a piece of corn on the cobb managed to slip off the plate and just barely graze the floor. My thoughts to even form the word NO did not even register before the cobb was gone. It was that quick. I must not have thought much about it because 4 days later at the vets office my jaw dropped when the she revealed to us what was the cause of Zeus looking absolutely misarable, not eating and trying to make himself vomit. Yes, the corn on the cobb. After seeing the vet bill for surgery I knew that I needed to work on my ninja reflex skills. It is now 3 weeks later and many Benjamin Franklins lighter, but Zeus is back to his old self. :)
So a word to all dog owners...beware of corn on the cobb.
If you have any doggie injested foreign object stories I would love to hear!

awwh poor puppy!! my little wookie was always into eating everything, especially wood. She ate a pencil (crunched up the whole thing) I found her playing with the eraser!!! scary stuff tho, thank god she did a good job chewing and it all made it out of the other end after a couple of cans of pumpkin... beware of onions, grapes and raisins too!!! i never knew about onions!!!

Spider Vein Treatment in Lima, OH
The Vein Care Center is the only office in the region to provide different types of corrective treatment for spider veins, none of which interfere with your normal, day-to-day activities. Patients in the Lima, Celina and the surrounding communities of Auglaize County area have entrusted Dr. Manu B. Aggarwal, a board-certified and aesthetic-laser-certified family physician with expertise in treating venous conditions with their care for more than five years.
What Are Spider Veins?
Spider veins are smaller than varicose veins and usually appear in a starburst or web-like pattern on the body. They are usually red, purple or blue in color and often appear on the legs and/or face. Although spider veins are usually a cosmetic issue, in some cases, they can indicate a more serious medical condition. Spider veins are more common in women than in men, affecting approximately 75 percent of the female population.
What Are the Symptoms of Spider Veins?
Aside from being readily visible, spider veins can also cause:
- Pain
- Aching
- Burning
- Swelling
What Causes Spider Veins?
Although genetics play a significant role in the development of spider veins, there are other factors that can contribute to the condition:
- Hormones – (puberty, pregnancy, or while taking birth control pills or while on hormone replacement therapy)
- Sun exposure
- Injury – (often resulting from wearing tight, constricting garments or hosiery)
- Standing or sitting for prolonged periods of time
- Obesity
- Smoking
Laser Treatment of Spider Veins
Spider veins can be treated effectively with surface laser techniques, thereby sparing the patient from having to undergo procedures where needles are used. Laser spider vein treatment uses a method that emits waves of light directly onto the vein, which causes the vascular anomaly to disappear. Laser therapy is not recommended for small veins that measure over 1/10 inch or 3 mm.
What Methods of Spider Vein Treatment Are Available at the Vein Care Center?
The Vein Care Center offers state-of-the-art care for spider vein treatment:
How Long Do Treatment Sessions Last?
Each treatment session lasts about 20 minutes.
How Many Treatments Are Required?
An average of four treatments are needed to remove the veins from larger areas, such as the legs, while smaller areas, such as the face, may require up to three sessions.
Is There Any Downtime?
Patients can resume their daily routines after each laser treatment.
*The Cutera Family of CoolGlide Aesthetic Lasers is FDA approved for the coagulation and hemostasis of benign vascular lesions, such as, but not limited to, venus lake, leg veins, spider veins.
Stop hiding your legs because of unsightly spider veins! Contact us today at the Vein Care Center to schedule an appointment with Dr. Manu B. Aggarwal, a board-certified and aesthetic-laser-certified family physician with expertise in treating venous conditions. Smooth, beautiful legs are right around the corner!

Abertura da Exposição Vagalumes acontece no Casarão de Santa Teresa.
No último domingo, dia 17 de julho, os Vagalumes invadiram o antigo Casarão do Largo dos Guimarães em Santa Teresa para a inauguração da exposição de fotos e vídeos que fizeram no curso de fotos e videos coordenadas por Frances Ridley e Tamara Torres. O evento de abertura foi muito alegre. A Fundação Xuxa Meneghel contribui com deliciosos quitutes feitos a partir de ingredientes naturais, mostrando que é possível ter alimentos nutritivos gastando pouco.
A exposição foi divulgada no blog de fotografia do O Globo, http://oglobo.globo.com/blogs/fotoglobo/posts/2011/07/14/exposicao-391942.asp.
As fotos da exposição podem ser vistas no link, k http://www.flickr.com//photos/bandedarts/show/with/5950205087/ e os videos no www.juliotonitv.blogspot.com
Aqui no blog postamos também as fotos da exposição para quem não pode estar presente.
A exposição vai até dia 31 de julho de 2011.
We can hardly believe that it's been 3 months since Frances from Banded started the Digital Depiction and Peeps from Within Project at Julio Otoni but it has. The project got off to a rocky start as although the kids and Frances were very much present, their was a noticeable lack of cameras and working computers for the first couple of weeks…kind of essential tools you would think for a photography and video project that would see the output distributed via social media. Well, not to worry, this is Brazil after all. If we, as foreigners living in Brazil, haven't learnt to "dar um jeito" (that famous Brazilian expression to siginify they'll find an often unexplainable way of making something happen) then quite frankly we haven't learnt one of the most valuable lessons Brazil has to teach you…there is ALWAYS a way to make it work.
So armed with a few old cameras we managed to round up, Digital Depiction got underway. The good news is that a few weeks later we successfully managed to get international donations of 25 cameras which has made a huge different to the output of the project (and the quantity of photos that have been taken!) Each week a different photographic theme was chosen ranging from technical themes such as "The Rule of Thirds or Tilt and Shift" to more creative themes such as "Women, Men and Water". Given that the age range in the class was from 5-13, that's a pretty big accomplishment for the kids to have grasped all this and to have been able to produce the quality of photos that they have in less than 3 months. The best photo has been voted by the public each week on Facebook and as you can imagine this has been the talk of the community as to who has been selected as "Photographer of the Week" by the "Gringoes" (said with a big smile and lots of affection). You can see a quick slideshow of highlights from the great photos the Children have produced at: http://www.flickr.com//photos/julio-otoni/sets/72157626939603678/show . The Project also got a great write up in the local english speaking newspaper The Rio Times Online!
Peeps from Within has also produced some great short videos with the kids talking about themes such as Rubbish in their community and being responsible for the Questions, Interviewing and Filming. As usual you can never predict what kids will say and that's what makes these videos extra special! Watch the videos in the sidebar on the right or on our Vodpod Channel
In the last few weeks the children have also had some English classes added to the mix from David, our new Swiss Volunteer, in order to help prepare them for the photo exhibition that will be happening in July (more on that shortly) and any international visitors that might pop by.
Watching all this from the sidelines, it has been amazing to see the dedication both from the kids and from Frances to making this project happen and the inspiration it has given the kids. Last week we had a TV crew come down to film at the community/project and one of the questions they asked the children was if the project had influenced what they would like to do when they are older…."Yes", said Heverton (age 9), "I want to be a photographer". Heverton, aside from taking some really good pictures as part of Digital Depiction, is bright, articulate and seems to almost have a photographic memory – hearing him say that, it was one of those moments when you know that the Julio Otoni project is on the right track and that Heverton, with a little bit of help, really could be a photographer.
The last part of Digital Depiction / Peeps from Within is to produce a photo exhibition both in the community and outside of the community which brings to a close two important conclusions to 'Digital Depiction':
- One: The children would have learnt beneficial skills that will help in their future as well as to have pride in their community and how to effectively show this to the world through different mediums. The would have leant invaluable skills in organising and putting on the exhibition, communication, business and will own a portfolio of photos, of had an exhibition, learnt new skills, have basic English skills, all creating a professional and positive conclusion to the project.
- Two: the audience (both from within Rio and internationally from the internet) will have gained a deeper understanding of life in the poorer communities in Rio de Janeiro. The will be able to see the similarities and differences to their own lives, the negative and the positive elements of the slum, the community, social injustices they face there and the culture and creativity of the people. So that instead of judging and writing off different communities, or only having one media gained perspective, they will understand this part of society from the communities point of view.
In terms of making this a reality, the first step of this was to produce a video, as told by the kids, as to why we should help raise money for the exhibition:
We are still a long way of the goal – we need to reach approx R$2,5000 (approx £1,000 or US$1,600) by the end of this month (the date on the Wefund website is wrong for some reason) to make this happen and so far we have just £160. If you can donate even a few pennies that would be great and if you can't that's also great but please spread the link around to people who might like to…and don't forget, in the creative spirit of Digital Depiction you will get mentions, dedications or even prints in return for your donations!
The second step is to find a location for the exhibition which we would like to take place in the first part of July (just around the corner we know). The first location inside the Julio Otoni Community is not a problem, but we are still searching for a location outside the community in Santa Teresa, Centro etc. so if anyone has any ideas, please let us know.
Some people might say there is not enough time nor money to do this. We say "Come on, let's try…we will dar um jeito!"
