State Department spokesperson Jen Psaki declared Sunday that the United States was "appalled" by Israel's apparent shelling of a UN-run school in Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip. You'll remember Psaki–she's the former Obama campaign spokesperson who lied in 2012 about the man whose wife Romney allegedly killed, then lied again in 2013 about whether Secretary of State John Kerry was yachting during the Egyptian coup.
Now this hack purports to care about the lives of innocent Palestinian civilians, pouring scorn on Israel and encouraging others to do the same. The photo above, released Sunday by the Israel Defense Forces, shows clearly just how cynically Hamas uses UN schools as staging points for attacks on Israeli troops and Israeli civilians–a double war crime, since it places civilians on both sides in danger, as well as the UN facilities.
International law permits Israeli troops to fire back if fired upon–period!–even if that means firing back towards a UN school that is being used as a shelter. The reason is simple: international law intends to stop combatants from using UN facilities and civilian shelters as cover, which is exactly what Hamas is doing. Therefore Psaki and her bosses are actually undermining the goal of international law with their outrage.
Effectively the Obama administration and the UN–and the British government, which has behaved only slightly less appallingly than the British opposition–have given cover to Hamas with its strong condemnation of Israel. A more appropriate response would have been to express sorrow at the loss of life and to demand that Hamas cease turning UN facilities into military targets, full stop. Instead, they do Israel maximum harm. It's appalling.

When I left Canon and switched to all Sony cameras, I had to deal with the reality that my shutter release cables weren't going to work and that I'd have to buy new ones. Little did I know that Sony was going to ditch the old Minolta style release and go with an all new multi-terminal on all of their newest cameras. All of the current Alpha cameras now use this port instead. The good news is that many more cameras (like the lower end mirrorless) now support cable shutter release
where previously they didn't but it meant I had to buy all new cables again!
Not wanting to go with the flow, and due to a lack of availability locally, I went a different way and ordered an adapter which converts the Canon 2.5mm cable release as found on older
Rebel cameras to the new sony Multi terminal interface. It cost me dearly but not as much as a new shutter release cable as I still had the cable I bought to use with my Powershot G12. It worked well in most situations but not all. For me, the adapter didn't work with my Gigapan Epic Pro.
This was a huge blow as I'd been looking forward to putting a smaller camera with bigger megapixels on my Gigapan...the combination seemed more than ideal! Unfortunately the shutter release just didn't want to work. Contacting Gigapan, they had already encountered the issue themselves but didn't have a solution yet. Their engineers don't miss much but I couldn't wait for them to find a fix...I had to get mine going as I had clients depending on me to product G
igapixel panoramas for them.
I tried different combinations of cables, adapters but even today there are only a couple of third party cables out for this new port. Nothing worked...until I started to think outside the box...
One of the first things I did with the adapter when I received it was use it with my Pocket Wizards to create a wireless shutter release for the camera combined with Pocket Wizard's E3 Canon shutter cable and the adapter. I thought that if I could get the Gigapan Epic Pro to trigger a Pocket Wizard, then it should take care of the rest and my problem will be solved.
To make this happen, all I needed was a simple adapter from my local electronics store as the input on the Pocket Wizard is a 3.5mm stereo phone jack and the Canon shutter release is a 2.5mm. With the adapter in place, everything worked perfectly.
The receiving unit was placed in the cameras hot show where it would be secure and out of the way. I wanted to make sure the transmitter was also secure so I looped the lanyard around one of the uprights on the Epic Pro and added a piece of velcro to the side of the unit (my pocket wizards are always equipped with velcro for attaching them to my small flashes). My first test was at a football game where I shot over 1000 exposures without a single complaint from either Pocket Wizard and no misfires. I've tested with both the Pocket Wizard Plus III and X. The former works fine though I've had trouble with channels under 20 and the X units don't seem to work at all. It could be that their auto switching ability is confused by this set up and they don't know if they're supposed to send or receive.
I believe this solution could also work in reverse as a way to enable the shutter confirmation on the Epic Pro without the requisite hardware by using the Pocket Wizards in the opposite direction from the camera to the Epic Pro.
I have no doubt that Gigapan will resolve the issue eventually either with a firmware update, their own shutter release cable, or both. For now this solution has proven to be reliable and with the Pocket Wizard X units available at a much lower price than we've ever seen before, it's not an impossibly expensive solution if you need a work around right now.
I've just received shipment of a new Sony cable from TriggerTrap, one of the first 3rd party cables to be produced and I'm trying to put it in place of the adapter I originally bought as it was obviously hand made by cutting apart a Sony factory shutter cable...no double why the cost was so high.
This set up hasn't let me down yet through several very large Gigapan projects; most recently a 360 degree shot at a football game:

>Dear Seller,
>Starting in March, eligible Books sellers are now able to compete for the Buy Box for Books in New condition. With this change, we would like to share an important reminder about the requirements for listing Books in New condition (https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html/ref=olp_cg_pop?ie=UTF8&nodeId=200143590&pop-up=1) on the Amazon Marketplace.
>In addition to the General Condition Guidelines (https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html/ref=olp_cg_pop?ie=UTF8&nodeId=200143590&pop-up=1), the following guidelines apply for Books listed as New condition:
>New: A brand-new, unused, unread copy in perfect condition. The dust cover and original protective wrapping, if any, is intact. All supplementary materials are included and all access codes for electronic material, if applicable, are valid and/or in working condition.
>Books with markings of any kind on the cover or pages, books marked as "Bargain" or "Remainder," or with any other labels attached, may not be listed as New condition. Additionally, Books listings must exactly match the item described, including edition/version, binding type, and country of origin.
>Sellers who list Books in New condition that do not meet these guidelines may have their offer removed, and could face additional action for repeated violations, including account suspension or termination.
>Amazon Services
As always, nothing about provenance, nothing about purchasing through distribution.
bunga bunga!
Nothing new. No new policies… No new words. Just a warning to those who used condition notes to explain why their offers were not NEW.
By two weeks from now, we will see some suspensions after buyers complain about Used Not New in media
And friend, even if you are correct about the lack of a requirement for provenance, Amazon is never going to make that clear. It guarantees issues with or even lawsuits from publishers who believe, like Random House, if there has been a retail sale, or a book has been remaindered, it is not NEW.
I got it too.
>who believe, like Random House, if there has been a retail sale, or a book has been remaindered, it is not NEW.
There is no evidence that Random House believes that "if there has been a retail sale" the item is not new. The letter that was posted on these forums doesn't say that, and I have no idea where you are getting it.

Lebanon, N.H. – One person is in custody following an active shooter incident on Sept. 12 at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, and police are actively searching the entire hospital, Lebanon police reported.
Police said the suspect was apprehended at 2:57 p.m. Witnesses said police pulled a man out of a silver Ford Escape at the corner of Lahaye Drive and Mount Support Road, just south of the DHMC campus. The man was taken away in a police cruiser and caution tape was put up around the car.
Shortly after 3 p.m., Lebanon police and New Hampshire State Police were still actively sweeping the hospital campus. Outside the administration building, where officials had established an incident command post, hospital employees asked when they would be able to return to work. "They're literally going from room to room to make sure that this is an isolated incident like we believe it is," Lebanon police Capt. Timothy Cohen said.
Cohen participated in a 2014 active shooter drill at the medical center. "A thing like this is invaluable," Cohen said at the time. "Unfortunately, it's a necessity in today's society. Not just in Lebanon, but anywhere. … Nobody is necessarily exempt from this."
The medical center went into lockdown shortly after 2 p.m. following reports of an active shooter in the level four south intensive care unit. An alert sent to DHMC employees warned that they should shelter in place, while others evacuated to the administration buildings on the east side of campus close to Route 120.
At about the same time, police were told to be on the lookout for a gray 2014 Ford Focus with Rhode Island plates. The DHMC alert said police were looking for a 6-foot-1-inch male with salt-and-pepper blond hair and wearing a red camouflage shirt. He was believed to be carrying a camouflage backpack as well.
Hanover High School was locked down as a precaution, according to Principal Justin Campbell, who said all students and staff "are secure in the school building." Lebanon High School, the Carter Community Building Association and portions of the Centerra Resource Park were also locked down, parents and employees reported.
Jean Fay, a cardio tech at the hospital, said she was in the middle of an exam and didn't hear an alarm. "Someone knocked on the door and said, 'there's an active shooter and you need to get out now.' "
Fay said she got her patient dressed and walked the patient to Mount Support Road, where they were picked up by her husband.
"I saw nothing," she said. "All is know is I've worked here for 33 years and this is the first time anything like this has happened."
The New Hampshire Attorney General's Office said the Hampshire Department of Justice and the New Hampshire State Police are investigating an incident. Vermont State Police are assisting with the investigation, according to a news release.

The Great Gatsby - 7.5/10
That's why I couldn't give it a full ten. I think the fact that the last half of the movie is set in the same room makes it rather uncinematic, but the staginess doesn't bother me that much because we get all that great dialogue delivered by all those great actors. It's just a pleasure to watch but I couldn't help thinking at some point that "this is a bit stagy". So it's no biggie but the movie isn't perfect enough to gain 10/10.
Which one? 1926? 1949? 1958? 1974? 2000? Without the year discriminator, your assessment is meaningless.
How would GGR benefit from ditching its clautrophobic tone? To me, that pent up tension is what makes the movie so special. Stage adaptations have their place in cinema; Secret Honor is a flat out masterpiece that features one character in one setting for 90 mins.
Melvyn Douglas is a bit of a lump though, what?
How would GGR benefit from ditching its clautrophobic tone? To me, that pent up tension is what makes the movie so special.
The Caine Mutiny - 8/10 - 2nd viewing.
The whole point of the book, revealed in the end, was that [Queeg] was competent and qualified, but that years of combat, and the stress of combat command had unhinged him mentally. The actions of the Fred MacMurry character used this (for his own agrandizement) to set the rest of the officers against him, when they should have been sympathetic and helped him. The Captain reached out to them for support, realizing his mental state was tenuous, but they turned their backs on him. This is what pushed the Captain over the edge. It was the disloyalty of the officers that endangered the ship by exaserbating the Captains mental problems.

Dozens of vehicles stranded near Scott Lake Hill west of Calgary after semi-truck rollover
Around 40 vehicles were stuck in traffic west of the city after a rollover on the Trans-Canada Highway.
Shortly after 7 p.m. on Monday, emergency crews were called to an area near Scott Lake Hill on the Trans-Canada Highway west of the city for reports of a semi-truck that had rolled over.
Fire Chief Randy Smith with the Rocky View Fire Service said both eastbound lanes of the Trans-Canada near Hermitage Road have been blocked off due to the incident and traffic has come to a standstill.
"Everybody is jammed in behind coming back in to Calgary here," Smith said. "So it will be pretty busy and it won't be long that it will be more than (40 cars)."
Smith said emergency services from Springbank and Cochrane responded to the scene. No one was injured in the incident.
A similar incident happened near Scott Lake Hill just two days before Christmas last year when approximately 40 cars and one semi-truck were forced into the ditch.
"It's a bad stretch," Smith said of the Scott Lake Hill area. "Traffic was jammed up … from the road being blocked. That's quite a busy highway."
Over 300 collisions were reported in Calgary between midnight and 7 p.m. Monday, including 16 incidents involving injuries.

Comme des Garçons PLAY Polo
|It took me about 5 minutes to locate the fancy letter 'c' in Microsoft's character map but I finally got it. This post, my friend, can now be completed. Comme des Garçons (CdG) is a Japanese brand that's fronting like it's French. PLAY is an offshoot of the CdG label that's targeted towards streetwear enthusiasts and urban hipsters alike (although they're synonymous, so I'm not sure why I make the delineation to distinguish between the two. Oh well… Onwards!). Armed with PLAY's trademark bug-eyed heart logo, the PLAY polo is an update from the status quo. Made slimmer, with a wider angled collar, and some variation of the golden ratio in the sleeve length, what you have is a polo that's well to fit a strapping lad like yourself. What you also get in return for this attention to detail is something that doesn't appear to be hijacked from your fat, balding uncle Don's closet, which is just as important as anything else. You can get your PLAY polo at the Dover Street Market, Commonwealth, or at the CdG boutique in New York. If you can't get your hands on one, I'll be willing to sell you the heart logo off my shirt for $75 and some POMx.
Jack Purcell
|For those of you that aren't aware, the sneaker is back. Gone are the days of uncomfortable shoes like loafers, racers, oxfords, or even boat shoes (although they've made quite a comeback themselves). Take a look down on a night out on the town and you'll likely find NikeSBs, BapeStas, Supras, and other colorful varieties of sneakers. When the sneaker craze made its way back on to the main stage, Converse pushed the Chuck Taylor All-Star; a canvas shoe that almost everyone is familiar with. For those who are not versed in the sneaker game, Coverse also launched the Jack Purcell line a few years back which plays off of the All-Star. The Jack Purcell's simple styles and clean designs makes it an ultra-versatile shoe. I have these ones; you can find yours on the Converse website or local boutiques for certain styles that you wont find online. If you're in Chicago, pay a visit to my friends at St. Alfred on Milwaukee Ave. If you're in DC, check out For the Greater Good or Commonwealth, which are adjacent to one another on Florida Ave.

The AG's parking space in the State House garage has been empty for weeks- ever since Marc Dann resigned.
As of yesterday, infamous black Chevrolet Suburban was back in it's parking space.
No word yet on whether newly-appointed Attorney General Nancy Rogers will be trading in the SUV (and the gun-carrying driver) for something a little smaller and more-efficient or if she plans to keep the big truck and decorate it with flames.
I'm pushing for the first option.
Tagged with: Attorney General
I'm telling you, the state should auction it off. They could make some money off it.
How about something smaller, in scarlet and gray, with an ugly yellow block M going down in flames! Go Bucks!!!

Google cares a lot about content, prefering to index and show pages with distinct information. In fact it cares so much it can penalise websites with a significant amount of duplicate content so they don't rank as highly on search results pages.
Many of the accountants we talk with mention they can get 'cheap website content', referring to generic content they can select, or that is uploaded by default to their website. It can be interesting to do a search on some of these content blocks to see how many other websites have this duplicate content, and consider the SEO penalties you may incur as a result.
Unique website content is highly effective to showcase your brand and expertise, and tell your business story. Our process includes getting you to fill out a questionnaire, a comprehensive one-on-one interview with our copywriter, then we provide individualised content written specially for you.
Syndicate carefully
It's fine to use syndicated content as long as you're careful. For more information take a look at the Google Webmasters forum here.
"If you syndicate your content on other sites, Google will always show the version we think is most appropriate for users in each given search, which may or may not be the version you'd prefer. However, it is helpful to ensure that each site on which your content is syndicated includes a link back to your original article. You can also ask those who use your syndicated material to use the noindex meta tag to prevent search engines from indexing their version of the content."
We have seen examples of plagiarism - outright copying of other people's content without attribution. This is bad practice, and in effect is stealing others IP. We also see the same blog posts across multiple sites without the addition of a noindex meta tag, which means these posts may also incur SEO penalties.
Our monthly content subscription provides curated content we have permission to use. We attribute this content, and apply the noindex meta tag for guest posts to avoid any duplicate content penalties. This content can be used across social media channels as part of your content marketing strategy to drive traffic to your website and increase your conversion rates.
Search Engine Optimization is something of an art and a science. Make sure your website is set up to the Xero SEO best practice guidelines, which you can download here. Much of the effectiveness of your SEO initiatives are determined by the amount of website traffic you receive, so a content marketing strategy can be highly effective in helping you rank more highly on search results pages. Benefits of an SEO strategy come over the longer term, and execution is the key to success.

The end of last week marked "Sine Die" at the Capitol, our way of saying that the legislative session has come to an end. I want to take a moment to reflect with all of you on a few highlights of this session.
I had the privilege this session to continue work on a project that I first learned about as a Woodburn city councilor: building a community center. I advocated to include $1 million of bond funding to get this project started so that our community can have a place to come together for events, classes and programming for youth and seniors. I am proud to announce that this funding passed and will be available for our city to take the next steps to make this vision a reality.
I was also proud to fight for good policies that will benefit my constituents here in House District 22. One small piece of legislation that I believe will have a large impact on seniors is House Bill 2661. This bill creates regulation and consumer protections around companies that offer seniors and their families referrals to long term care providers. Our seniors and their loved ones deserve to know how these referral companies make their money so that there is transparency in the process of choosing a care facility. This was part of a bipartisan package of bills we passed this session to protect seniors in assisted-living facilities and to ensure transparency and accountability in how our health care dollars are spent.
We also had major victories for our hard-working families. Senate Bill 828 creates fair work week requirements for employees of major employers in the retail, food service and hospitality industries — including requiring advance notice of schedules. This is vital for parents who need to plan out day care and doctors' visits, and for young people who are working their way through school. With the passage of House Bill 2005, Oregon now has the strongest equal pay protections in the country. This will give women and people of color the tools they need to ensure that they are being fairly compensated for their work.
As a member of both the Health Care and Human Services Budget committees this session, one of my top priorities was ensuring that low-income Oregonians did not lose their health insurance due to our state's budget deficit. We were able to preserve the health insurance of over 1 million Oregonians who rely on Medicaid, and even managed to expand access to health care for 14,000 children who were previously excluded due to their immigration status. We also greatly expanded access to reproductive health care for all Oregonians, ensuring that no one is denied this basic health coverage. In Oregon, we recognize that health care is a right, especially for our children.
Finally, I'm proud to say that House Bill 3464, which I co-sponsored with Rep. Diego Hernandez, Governor Kate Brown, Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum and others, passed through both the House and Senate and is on its way to being signed by the governor. This bill will give school districts and state agencies the clarification they need in dealing with federal authorities, particularly on immigration enforcement. This bill will help protect Oregonians' privacy in the face of overreach by the federal government.
It was an honor serving this district through my first legislative session. Your calls, emails and letters throughout the session were invaluable to my decision-making process, and I look forward to continuing to hear from all of you about your priorities.

For many Gaustatoppen is Norway's most beautiful mountain as it towers majestically above Rjukan and is a 1883 metres above sea level.
Gaustabanen is a unique cable car that goes inside the Gaustatoppen mountain.
At the Norwegian Industrial Workers Museum you will discover Norwegian industrial and war history.
Take the cable car Krossobanen to Gvepseborg and walk the stone-paved, family-friendly Solstien (The Sun Trail).
The shortest route from Rjukan to Hardangervidda.
Heddal Stave Church is Norway's largest stave church and a true masterpiece in wood.
The idea for Myllargutvegen (The "Myllar Boy" Road) comes from the fact that much of the life of the "Myllar Boy" is associated with the villages that are connected by this road.

About Robyn
I completed my midwifery training in 1990 at a Sydney hospital. Since then I have birthed all three of my babies at home with the care of a loving midwife.
The care and respect these women showed me after the birth of my 1st son gave me the confidence to start my own midwifery practice. Hence the New Beginnings Midwifery Practice was born, in December 1996.
I believe that childbirth is a very special moment in a woman and her family's life that needs to be nurtured carefully by someone that knows her and will respect her wishes.
Pregnancy brings about many changes that can prepare the women for her labour and birth, just as the birth prepares her for parenting. With the love, education and support from a midwife, I have seen many women view this time of their lives with anticipation and excitement, rather than fear and dread. I also believe that the place of birth needs to be where ever it is the woman feels safe that may be hospital, a birth centre or home. Therefore I offer all these options to women.
Pregnancy, labour, birth and parenting are all normal life events, and can be enriched with the special care a midwife can give.

Eustis Elks held their first annual charity ball recently to benefit the Florida Elks Hospital in Umatilla. With Les Wheeler of Tavares directing the project, $600 was raised. The money was used to buy two Elks Hospital trust fund certificates in the lodge's name.
Trust fund certificates are invested perpetually with only the interest being spent. They account for 50 percent of the operating expenses, according to Frank Willis, state Elk's secretary.

Application Settings and custom types
In the past I've sometimes created settings in the Visual Studio Settings designer that used Enum types defined in an assembly in my application. This works well enough except that I'd noticed that the Browse… function in the drop down list for the Type field was never able to display the type and instead I had to type in the full type name in the Selected type text box at the bottom of the type browser.
I've recently created a struct to represent the time of day. I assumed that this could be specified as type in the Settings designer but the browser not only failed to show the type but either refused to recognise the type when I entered its full name or accepted the type name but then insisted that the value must be specified using a chunk of XML.
Clearly there is some magic required to make the Settings designer and the Application Settings configuration code handle my TimeOfDay struct the way that it handles the standard .NET types.
I tried implementing some of the interfaces implemented by System.DateTime on the basis that this is also a struct and that the Settings designer handles it correctly but nothing provided what I was looking for.
Finally, a hint in another blog posting made me try implementing a TypeConverter for my TimeOfDay struct. I didn't hold out much hope as the conversions required are string to TimeOfDay and TimeOfDay to string and the struct already implements a constructor that takes a string and a ToString method. Surely the Settings designer would use these for conversions and so what was the point of implementing a TypeConverter that does exactly the same thing ? My thinking was wrong and the TypeConverter is the solution. The implementation is simple enough:
public class TimeOfDayConverter : TypeConverter { public override bool CanConvertFrom(ITypeDescriptorContext context, Type sourceType) { return sourceType == typeof(string); } public override object ConvertFrom(ITypeDescriptorContext context, CultureInfo culture, object value) { if (value is string) { return new TimeOfDay(value as string); } return base.ConvertFrom(context, culture, value); } public override object ConvertTo(ITypeDescriptorContext context, CultureInfo culture, object value, Type destinationType) { if (destinationType == typeof(string)) { TimeOfDay timeOfDay = (TimeOfDay)value; return timeOfDay.ToString(); } return base.ConvertTo(context, culture, value, destinationType); } }
The magic is accomplished by adding a System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter attribute to the custom type that associates the TypeConverter with the type:
[TypeConverter(typeof(TimeOfDayConverter))] public struct TimeOfDay : IFormattable { ... }
The Settings designer can now handle the TimeOfDay struct:

Now, she's given fans yet another advanced listen with her Nicki Minaj collaboration "Side to Side".
"Side to Side" features an island beat that sounds like it could be banging out of an Amsterdam coffee shop. For her part, Minaj delivers some of her typical confidence in bars like, "I give zero fucks and I got zero chill in me/ Kissin' me/ Pop the blue box that say Tiffany."

Step out of your Daddy's golf clothing
UV Protection - All women's items with UV Protection have been tested at an independent lab and confirmed to have UPF ratings of 25+ (very good) through 50+ (excellent). UV protection is based on combined factors; tightness of fabric construction, color, fiber content, and whether wet or dry. UV protection is durable for the life of the garment (tested through 40 launderings and 100 hours of light exposure). Moisture Control - To enhance comfort, moisture management textiles transfer heat and perspiration by the controlled movement of water from the surface of the skin through the fabric for quick evaporation. Moisture transport is accomplished by applying a durable, permanent coating that becomes embedded into the fiber, then engineering the knitting of the specialty fibers to be in contact with the body. The fabric steadily and continuously absorbs moisture and transports it rapidly to the surface for wide dispersion of moisture and rapid drying. Wearers will benefit from the continued absorption and comfort that does not wash out, and is enhanced over time through continuous home launderings.

Jesse Marcel III Recounts his Grandfather's Life
Testimony Of Jesse Marcel III
I am here today not to speak as an expert witness to what I have heard and researched, about Roswell but simply to help you to get to know two great men, my grandfather, Maj. Jesse Marcel Sr., and my father, Dr. Jesse Marcel Jr.
My grandfather was a simple man who just wanted to lead a simple life. Starting at a very early age when he wasn't helping the family with the farm, He would sneak away to find parts to build radios.
Later in life before entering the war he would use these skills to build a Ham radio that would become a lifelong passion. He would spend endless ours chatting with people from around the world. Things would change rapidly as we were pulled into the second world war. On his own accord He went from his job as a civilian draftsman to joining the war effort where he exceled in his duties from the very beginning.
His superiors recognized his aptitude towards problem solving and sent him to intelligence school. Again he excelled in his courses and was asked to teach the next incoming classes. He would eventually end up on the Roswell Airbase working in our nuclear bombing program with the 509th Bomb Group.
With the war over and life returning to a sense of normalcy Grandpa would receive a simple order, an order that would change his and most of our lives forever. The heavens would send us a visitor that would establish the words Alien and flying saucer in the English vernacular; and it was him they sent to investigate our visitors…
Decades later, my father followed in grandpas footsteps as a military man serving in the navy to train to be a medical doctor,
soon after he would settle down in Clancy Montana to raise a family and to continue in the reserves to become a helicopter pilot.
As the only ENT in town, I remember as a child going with my father on his rounds, not the ones in the hospital, but the ones where he would visit his patients in their homes. He would carry in his little black bag and take care of his patients, in the same caring way that he would take care of the rest of us. Back in his office, if a child showed up in ratty shoes to his appointment, a new pair would be waiting for that child on his next visit.
My father introduced me to many things, the telescope that he built in the back yard where we often gazed at stars, the Science Fiction of Kubrick, and technology before its time. I remember very fondly watching him not only build the telescope, but his design and construction of a computer guidance system for his telescope, long before there was such a thing at least on an
amateur level. He spent endless hours wrapping small green glass switches that would eventually become the "brain".
In the summer we would all pile into a van, rv, or whatever form of transportation that we would have available to us and head to Houma, Louisiana where my grandparents had returned to live out the rest their lives.
I remember so clearly driving down their shell covered road leading up the their house
with the most notable feature being a huge green house that easily equaled the size of their residence, that my grandfather lovingly built for his wife Viaud. My grandmother had a green thumb like no other. My father would send her a tomato plant that could barely survive the short Montana summers into immense vegetation that would reach from floor to ceiling.
Each morning my grandfather would lead me to his shop occupying a space between the house and garage. He would reach up into the rafters and pull down fishing poles that had been there for decades. These poles were not made of fiberglass but of bamboo, very simple but effective in their trade
I Recall leaning against a table saw in his work shop watching him attach the reel with a hand that was missing a digit from some long ago battle.. with that very same table saw.
He would add the weights and the bobber from two rusty old tackle boxes and finish the
Session off with showing me how to delicately hook the work without injuring myself, although this was not always the case.
We would make our way out the back door and onto his lawn that ran up against a bayou. After a couple of casts, we could sit back and talk and enjoy each other's company.
My grandfather's other great passions were sports, LSU provided the teams that he most favored and occupied his weekend TV viewing hours. I will always remember Grandpa as a gentle giant who somehow lived the life of a southern gentleman who would be at least partially responsible for changing the way people of our world would look into the nights sky and think to themselves maybe, just maybe, someone was looking back…
Once we were back home and settled into our normal routines, well almost normal, we always had little reminders that our family was not alone in all of this, usually receiving a friendly call from the 301 area code to see if we were back home.
Today I share these same stories that I learned as a child with my own kids, Roswell is now a topic of conversation between the kids and their teachers in there elementary school.
This legacy will go on….

Our rating: 4/5
Short review: A predictably superb performance by Judi Dench, Victoria and Abdul is a delightful film tinged with the bitterness of unsavoury racism and classicism.

Our rating: 3/5
Short review: Pop, Lock 'n Roll checks all the boxes in terms of what has come to be expected from a dance movie.
Movie: The Lego Ninjago Movie

I am running a magic realism bloghop again this year. Some twenty blogs are signed up to take part and if last year's bloghop is anything to go by, there will be some fascinating posts.
Over on the Magic Realism Books blog I have scheduled posts about magic realist fiction available free from the web, about useful magic realism resources and a review of Bulgakov's Master and Margarita, which features on all the magic realism lists as one of the most important magic realist books ever written and is one of my all-time favourite books. Despite having written three posts for my other blog I want to write a more personal post here on my personal blog about what magic realism means to me.
Of course there is good and bad magic realism, magic realist books that last for ever in your mind and others that are easily forgotten. But as a general rule I find that the magic realist approach to portraying the world is one that I respond to and I recognize that it reflects my own experience. That is not to say that I have seen people ascend to heaven, been followed by crowds of butterflies when I fell in love or watched a relative turn into an item of furniture. But rather that I believe in allegory and metaphor, in imagery, in archetypes and in a heightened awareness that extends beyond "physical" reality.
For me, realism is overestimated. It excludes the profound. It does not allow my soul to soar. Nor does it take me to the depths beyond pain. I am and have always been a poet and a bit of a mystic. For a while, as a student, I neglected that side of my personality in favour of the rational and the academic. I stopped writing. It didn't last. The subconscious has a way of hitting back and my health suffered. Unable to think straight because of the pain, my reason dropped away and I was left with only instinct and intuition to fall back on – magic one might say. The poetry came flooding back. Here is part of the concluding section of a long poem I wrote at that time:

Dress code: Business/work attire
Bob Dwyer - the man who in 2002 lifted the NSW Waratahs to their first-ever Super 12 championship play-off- has been an enormously influential personality in world rugby for more than two decades.
As a coach, he has scaled the very heights in the game, highlighted by Australia's victory in only the second World Cup ever played - against England at Twickenham in 1991.
Awarded a Centenary Medal by the Australian Government in 2003 for his services to rugby union, Dwyer coached Australia in 74 Tests and in 144 matches overall, winning 99 of them. His strike rate (70 per cent) makes him the most successful coach in Australian rugby history. He was in charge of the Wallabies for 10 years - in 1982-83 and 1988-95.
Building his coaching platform on the running game, Dwyer became a highly successful coach of Randwick's Galloping Greens. After playing 347 matches as a backrower in Randwick's Myrtle Green, Dwyer went on to coach Randwick to six premierships and on another three occasions the Coogee-based club was runner up.
Dwyer is the only coach who has been in charge for two World Cup campaigns - in 1991 in UK/Europe and in 1995 in South Africa. In the second half of the 1990s, Dwyer coached with a high degree of success in France (with the Racing Club of Paris in 1995-96) and in the United Kingdom (with Leicester from 1996 to 1998 and Bristol from 1998 to 2000).
In 2011, he was inducted into the IRB Hall of Fame, alongside all other Rugby World Cup-winning head coaches and captains through the 2007 edition.
He has written two autobiographies - The Winning Way (1992) and Full Time: A coach's Memoirs (2004). He was inducted into the Sport Australia Hall of Fame in 1991 and was made a Member of the Order of Australia in 2004 for services to rugby union.
Andrew is motivated by a passion and commitment to Australian Rugby and the broader sport and entertainment industry with over 20 years of experience including; physical education (1992 - 1999), sport development (1999 - 2005), Senior Management and Strategic Advisory (2006 - 2013) and General Management and Strategy (2013 – present). Key areas of success include game-changing insights, strategic planning, stakeholder engagement, and problem-solving.
Andrew is currently on the Executive team at the Australian Rugby Union as General Manager Community Rugby and Strategy having commenced in September 2013. Leading the critical pillar to 'make Rugby a game for all' with a focus on growing and diversifying the participation base with more girls and boys playing than ever before through the introduction of VIVA7s, expansion of 7s Rugby and development of the XV's game. Introducing new systems, revenue streams and products to the business of Rugby.
Andrew leads the strategy and planning process for Australian Rugby, Chaired World Rugby's research into global participation and is a member of the Oceania Rugby Executive Committee - Andrew is an influencer on a global scale for the growth of Rugby.
Andrew operates on a simple model of collaboration and seeing, thinking and acting differently. A proven leader in the sport and entertainment sector, who knows the power of diverse thinking and wants to leave a legacy of a great Australia through the business of sport and entertainment.
Dean has recently retired after a career that included 128 NSW caps, 57 tests (1 as captain). He is the current president of RUPA and has recently started a career in the insurance industry with broking firm JLT. In April next year Dean will trek to the North Pole in aid of Borne, a charity which raises funds into research to prevent preterm birth. A cause close to his family.
Having lived in Australia for over 10 years, the former Christchurch local last year took Norths to their first Shute Shield premiership in 41 years. Simon coached the Sydney Rays in the NRC to the 2016 semi-finals and coached Australian under 20s in the recent world championships. Either this month they placed sixth in Georgia but only lost by a point against eventual finalists England in their pool.
The Rugby Business Network is a not-for-profit organisation that connects business people with a passion for rugby.
We look forward to seeing you there!

My Shop In Ludlow
Martin Pryce, bespoke leather tailor and bag maker can be found at his shop in Pepper Lane, Ludlow, where he manufactures and sells his products. A unique little shop where you can see Martin working away at the work bench and sewing machines in the one half and the retail section for bags and clothing in the other.
A visit from top London leather designer Bill Amberg resulted an appraisal in the FT "How To Spend It" and also Vouge magazine.
Bespoke commissions are gladly undertaken, whether it be to your own requirements, a popular design or Martin can help design something especially for you. Sourcing the very best leather, suede, sheepskin and reptile skins from around the world you can be assured of purchasing an extremely high quality product.
Along with the beautiful designer bags and made to measure leather clothing, other popular products are available, such as leather satchels like the one you used to go to school with.
In complete contrast, sheepskin flying jackets can be made just for you, a line which Martin makes for the classic car enthusiasts. Made in supple Marino lamb instead of the very heavy weight that was used by the Spitfire and Lancaster pilots during the war, this ensures a comfortable drive in your open top car.
So a drive over to the historic town of Ludlow and a visit to Martin's shop is a must for a good day out.
Shop Address : Martin Pryce, Leather Artisan, Pepper Lane, Ludlow, SY8 1PX
