GUATEMALA CITY (AP) — Guatemalan authorities have broken up a group that sold the government millions of dollars' worth of contraband corn and beans, some of it not fit for human consumption, an official said Tuesday.
Attorney General Thelma Aldana said the purchases were made in 2014 after the government made a disaster declaration because of heavy rains in some areas and drought in others threatened the food supply. The government spent $66 million on the grains, and those involved in the scheme allegedly cleared $5 million in profit.
Among those arrested was former agriculture minister Elmer Lopez. Lopez said there was a lot of pressure and blamed former Vice President Roxana Baldetti.
Baldetti, along with President Otto Perez Molina, resigned under a variety of corruption charges in 2015 and she remains in custody.
This story has been corrected to show that both the disaster declaration and grain purchases were in 2014.

WARSAW, Poland, Sep 25- Kenyan Recho Kosgei collapsed while leading the Warsaw Marathon, with a near-three-minute lead and about a half-mile to go on Sunday.
Kosgei wobbled from side to side on the Polish capital's roads in the final mile, occasionally turning her head around. She saw nobody in the distance behind her.
She eventually, slowly, collapsed to the pavement about 2 hours, 30 minutes into the 26.2-mile race.
Organizers of the Marathon in the Polish capital are on the spot as for close to three, minutes Kosgei struggled to get off the ground with seemingly no help coming her way until two runners approached her two and a half minutes later.
The first was Slovakian Marek Hladik, in 10th place in the men's race, who stopped and put his hand out in an attempt to lift Kosgei off the road. He appeared to try and communicate with her for a few seconds, but she remained on the ground.
As this was going on, Ethiopian Bekelu Beji strode past both of them and went on to win the women's race in 2:35:08.
Kosgei did not finish and was eventually treated by medical personnel, according to Polish media.

FAYETTEVILLE (KFSM)- College baseball has returned to Fayetteville. Fans who packed Baum Stadium were excited about the Diamond Hogs and the perfect weather for baseball.
Though the turnout wasn't as record-breaking as last season, Baum was packed full of Arkansas fans who have been anxiously awaiting the new year. According to Arkansas' athletic department, there were 9,443 in attendance at Friday's game.
"We were coming up for the basketball game," said Arkansas fan Tracy. "We realized we had opening season at baseball and thought we would throw it in too, especially with the weather the way it is."
Friday's game marked a fresh start for Arkansas baseball. The clean slate is something that not only the players are excited for, but also the fans. The 2015-2016 season ended on a sour note for the Diamond Hogs when Arkansas compiled a 13-game losing streak and finished last in the SEC. But, last year's season doesn't affect how the fans view this year's squad.
"Dave Van Horn puts out a great product," said Arkansas fan Steve. "I have no doubt the team is going to bounce back from our 13-game losing streak last year."
Arkansas will continue its series against Miami (OH) this weekend. They will play the Redhawks at 12:00 p.m. on Saturday, and 1:00 p.m. on Sunday.

pCloud payments have a 10-day money-back guarantee.
There are structural entities that make pCloud to be a competitive player in the online storage providers industry.
Here are the key features.
File Management
pCloud offers you ways to manipulate data through its desktop client and web interface.
The management is similar to as that of an operating system in its minimal form.
File Sharing
pCloud sharing capabilities are incomparable.
Sharing is done through three ways;
- Invite to Folder – this option allows your friends, coworkers, and family to view and also modify the contents of the folder. They can also edit the files. This is also a native collaboration feature. There's no way one can control which file to be modified and which is to be not.
- Share Upload Link – this involves sharing a link so that people can upload contents to the shared folder.
- Share Download Link – it's the vice versa of the upload link, individual can download content from the shared folder. Changes made to the downloaded files don't affect the original files.
File Tracking
More like versioning, pCloud allows you to keep an eye on files that are modified in the shared folder.
It also gives you the ability to maintain the original version of a file. You can also inspect activities and retrieve changes made to the initial file.
pCloud allows syncing of files from the cloud server to your various clients such as desktop and mobile apps.
Backup is done regularly, and you can keep your social media accounts backed up. With this feature, you can never miss a file.
Not only syncing, but also integration. pCloud lets you increase the security of your photos on the social platforms such as Facebook, Instagram and Picasa.
You will be able to back up your special memories simply by clicking a button and keep your photos safe.
pCloud also lets you integrate other different plugins to your account. A plugin like WordPress ensures that your WordPress database is backed up.
pCloud player
pCloud sports an audio player that lets you listen to and manage your music.
This player has a playlist and sorts out music according to artist or album. It further arranges the songs alphabetically.
Through the audio interface, you can download the music, play it, add to playlist or player, share it and also open its location.
Online storage deals with all kinds of information. This information is private and confidential and should not be seen by other people.
Also, this information should maintain its integrity when its stored in the cloud. Modifications done or facilitated by the user are allowed.
This information should also be available at all times.
pCloud ensures that the CIA triad (Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability) is observed.
To ensure this, pCloud offers top-notch security controls throughout their ecosystem.
pCloud uses TLS/SSL encryption to encrypt information during transmission from the user's client to the cloud. Stored information is also encrypted.
Their data centers are also monitored to avoid potential attacks and infrastructure failure. For maximum security, pCloud offers Crypto at an additional fee.
pCloud Crypto
Crypto is a security feature from pCloud that facilitates client-side encryption.
With this feature, encryption is done from the user's devices instead of the pCloud side.
This means the users have control over the encryption keys.
The plain text stays at the users' device while the cipher text – encrypted information is uploaded and stored in the pCloud servers.
Even pCloud itself will never know what kind of information you encrypted.
With these, Zero-Knowledge Privacy is accomplished.
Encryption and decryption is done using a crypto Pass. This feature is integrated in both the mobile and desktop app.
Why Client-side Encryption?
Client side encryption means your information stored in the cloud is more secure even from the government.
Reason being, you are in possession of the decryption keys, unless you decide to give them to someone.
On the other side, server-side encryption means that encryption is done from the server and the vendors have access to your information. This means that the CIA triad can be breached at any time.
Speed is essential for cloud storage. The faster the speeds, the better the service.
pCloud has unlimited speeds with no throttling. Uploading and downloading should be as fluid as possible, other factors such as your internet connection may affect this speed. Other some instances, uploading maybe faster that downloading and vice versa, this also depends on the congestion of your ISP and internet connectivity.
pCloud has super high speeds of 80mbps. This means a whopping 1GB files can be uploaded in approximately 59sec and downloaded in about 36sec.
This speeds may vary according to your internet connection. With this speeds, file access is nearly a desktop experience.
pCloud is accessible across all platform using its web interface. Platform wise, pCloud has client applications for;
- Linux
- Mac
- Windows
To also cater for the mobile world, it has apps for both Android and iOS.
They also have a pCloud app for Windows 10 phone only, and maybe they will also cater for Blackberry users.

A form will pop up where you will input the required details.

Opening this drive via explorer reveals five folders;
- My Music
- My Pictures

- pCloud Sync.
Both pCloud desktop client and Web have a pretty same interface except for the location of operation tabs. The desktop client has them on the upper part while in the web they are located on the left side.
Both interfaces are intuitive with an elegant, simple design for easier navigation.
Customer Support
pCloud provides support via various ways.
There's pCloud Help in the virtual drive where there's a get started PDF. This is a starter kit help of all you need to know and go about using pCloud.

You can also request help if the FAQ is of no help. You only need to fill the contact form or send them an email displayed on the web page.
pCloud Pros and Cons
- Unlimited file size
- Easy file sorting
- Plays media files
- Share files with non-users
- Faster speeds
- Backup media from social media
- Enhanced encryption
- You have to pay for extra security after 14-day trial
- Password protect on files not yet available.
pCloud For Business
pCloud provides an optimized pCloud for business.
It's basically about safety of your business data. Only people who are acquainted with permissions will be able to access the files. Communication and collaboration for teams and users is done through its integrated file system.
This one offers you;
- Crypto
- Workflow user-friendly tools
- Cutting edge elements in line with business prerequisites.
With its simple interface, pCloud is suitable for both novice and experienced users.
Users do not need to worry about failure due to data redundancy in their servers. Speeds are at its optimum, and so far no one has rivaled this; even the big giants in the industry.
Zero-knowledge privacy is an added advantage although the Crypto feature should be incorporated as a feature and users should not pay for it.
pCloud should also introduce file protection policies for individual files i.e. in the shared folder.
They have a responsive support system that we liked but it wouldn't hurt if they included a live chat.

Half Moon Books. Kingston, New York. Okay. This one, this one was inspired. It's impossible to go wrong when you're partnering with Will Lytle of Thorneater Comics. I went to Jessica about 2.5 years ago and offered to do a website for her for free. She wouldn't take me up on it, because she didn't feel comfortable accepting it at no charge, but didn't have a budget for a site either. Then something unexpected happened. I was approached by a very kind anonymous donor who hired me to do a site for her. But there was one condition. I couldn't divulge the benefactor's identity. So I went to Jessica and filled her in. At first she thought I was making it up. But eventually she believed me. And spent a good deal of time trying to figure out who the donor was. I wasn't telling. I just needed her to sit down with me and plan the site. Trouble was, she was busy all the time. With the bookstore and 4 children and a lovely husband. So we kept putting it off. And every time she'd run into me, she'd feel guilty. I kept telling her not to worry about it. Then on New Year's Day 2015 I went to a party and Jessica was there. And we talked. And I said:
"Let's just do one page. One terrific page. All I need for you to do is send me a list of thoughts + adjectives describing Half Moon Books."
And she did. Jessica told me she hated having her picture taken. And so did Carl, her assistant. So I went home and chewed on it. I went to bed and the next day I woke up and knew exactly what I wanted to do. I got in touch with Will Lytle. I hired him to go to the store and sketch them. Jessica's sister created her logo, which I love. I used the colors from the logo for the website. Once I got Will's drawings and Jessica's list the site fell into place in about a day.
This one's a favorite. She was thrilled when I unveiled it. Jessica still has no idea who her benefactor is. Love that.

The Grouper Grapple was founded by Brian Peachey in 2013 as a means to give back to the community and show support to Combat Wounded Veterans that have served our country. The tournament itself started with just 16 boats in 2013, and has grown to 32 teams in 2016 & 32 teams in 2017.
By teaming with Freedom Alliance we have been able to turn the event into an actual vehicle that provides much needed therapy for combat wounded veterans returning from service.
Grouper Grapple and Freedom Alliance provide the veterans with transportation to and from the event, hotel accommodations, breakfast, lunch and dinner Thursday - Sunday, Back Bay fishing trips, commemorative plaques, entry into the tournament and tournament events tournament, specialized apparel and a chance to join their brothers in arms in an atmosphere designed just for them!
Jeff Sommer Memorial Scholarship Fund
In addition to the Freedom Alliance we have added a beneficiary to our event for 2018. The Jeff Sommer Memorial Scholarship Fund.
We would like honor the memory of Coach Jeff Sommer of Estero High School and the positive impact that he had on hundreds of young people and adults. Brian Peachey, the founder of the Grouper Grapple Offshore Fishing Tournament was an all-star athlete who ran cross country and track for Coach Sommer from 1989-1993. Along with his fellow athletes, Coach Sommer pushed them to be their best taking them to the State meet where they were Runner up in 1991 and State Champions in 1992. Peachey was recognized as All Southwest Florida Cross Country Runner of the year during his time with Coach at Estero HS and has stayed close with Coach Sommer and his family throughout the years.
"Coach Jeff Sommer always told his cross country runners that pain is temporary and pride is forever he instilled in us that nothing hurts compared to what it feels like to quit. He was a builder of leaders and people who would and could, quite literally, go the extra mile. He also taught me how to give. That's why we want to give back. " -Brian Peachey

lest you think we're skipping valentine's day
or groundhog's day
We made these in December and January - back when my energy was much lower than it is now. I published articles but never got around to sharing with you. In answer to the questions. I am mostly following Heather's advice and listening to my body (which means much more rest than I am used to).
I feel close to one-hundred percent now as long as I get enough rest. During 'certain' times of the month I do feel the achiness so it does respond to hormones but otherwise I am doing well.
We are considering changing our doctor but I don't handle change as well as I would like so I am procrastinating. Thanks to everyone who has prayed. Your prayers, have made a difference.
For those who wonder why we do our crafts so early - remember, I write. I have to publish at least a month and a half in advance of the holiday.
5 comments:
I would have a lot of trouble changing doctors too. Sometimes, it's easier to go with what you know, than the unknown. I'm sure you have good reasons for wanting to change.ReplyDelete
It is good news that you are feeling more towards 100%.
I really like the Bunny card. I have always like that "Some Bunny Loves You" saying.
- Anonymous3:02 PM
Gorgeous crafts. All of them in both posts.ReplyDelete
And I am SOOOO glad to read you are feeling much better! It is hard to make ourselves rest for sure...I am one who feels she has to be busy and if I'm not I feel guilty...which I know is silly. So glad you are getting the rest you need.

Hi-5 Sports participants experience sports at their own pace and interest level. Coaches are required to emphasize the positive and offer constructive, helpful criticism that encourages instead of discourages. Every success is celebrated, no matter how small.
Competitions are deliberately kept to a low intensity, including no score or stats keeping at the younger age levels. All participants are guaranteed equal playing time, regardless of skill level, and everyone will receive equal coaching in both an individual and team setting.

"Book Club" Minutes 5.6.08
Minutes from the Book Club meeting held on May 6, 2008. In attendance: Lee, Colleen, Rhonda, and Mandy. Absent: Jill.
For the benefit of Rhonda's daughter we will now be officially reading a book entitled 'No Elephant Left Behind'.
Our evil plot works – Lee feels unwanted as we exclude him from all conversation.
Is Jill secretly practicing her favorite pole dance moves? (If you're not at book club to defend yourself, we can say whatever we want.
Can you hear me now? The parking lot phone parade.
Things you might hear A.S. say:
"I accidentally eavesdropped"
"Would you like to hear a story about my co-worker? Some of it might be true"
"Only heaven knows
A teddy, a hot chick, and a new dryer. No wonder Lee had to leave after his phone call.
Colleen sure looks sexy when she's angry!
Last night I worked myself up to taking the bike out last night…and I couldn't get it started. I was disappointed, but got over it, and left it out so Peter could look at it when he got home. Which of course meant that it started on the first try when he arrived. By that point I was already un-worked up and very dirty from yard work, so I decided not to go last night.
Instead I worked on one of my quirky projects. It may not seem quirky to many people, but to some it is. I am planning on building a dry stacked stone wall at the end of our property. I have been picking rocks out of the neighbor's field for two years to do this. Is it crazy to want to hand pick rocks to make a 90 foot wall, 2 feet wide and 3 feet high? Maybe, especially because it will probably take me 20 years to complete. But there is a certain satisfaction in doing all the work myself.
Last night I focused on getting the bigger rocks from the lilac pile down to the ditch, in case they plant that field today and I lose my chances. Usually I take a bucket and pick the medium-sized rocks and dump them into a pile. Last night I was taking the rocks that I can only carry one at a time. I mostly felt like I was a contestant in the The World's Strongest Man competition carrying those rocks down the hill. Then I would laugh at myself and almost drop the giant rock on my toes, so I had stop that. I have enough rocks now to do about a 3-foot section of the wall, not so impressive. Hopefully they don't plant that field for another week or so, and I can get a better start. And hopefully my wrists hold out. My fingers are numb today.

Cottage 52, Harbor Springs Michigan
Category Residential
Keywords Residential / Single-Family / Vacation Home
Cottage 52 is a modern getaway vacation home located in the magnificent private neighborhood of L'Arbre Croche (French for Crooked Tree) in Harbor Springs, Michigan.
The 5,200 square foot cottage is extremely private thanks to the natural dunes and forestry engulfing it. The views of the lake are maximized because the residence occupies the central bay area – the most sought after property of the bay.
The architecture disappears into the landscape, yet at the same time possesses modernity due to the natural elements the property lies on. Cottage 52's footprint is close to that of the original structure; however, the new design contains more living space. The family, comprised of two parents, four adult children and an extended family are able to entertain and enjoy the beauty of the landscape and home.

Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed."

Freed Speech, Series 3 No.12
Edited by Helen Constantine, David Constantine2009 sees the sixtieth anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. One of those rights is freedom of speech. This issue of Modern Poetry in Translation celebrates speech that has been freed. Poetry and translation, working together, have often been the means and the best expression of that liberation. 'Freed Speech' features examples from past and present, from all over the world, from all manner of circumstances, of people being enabled to speak and of their voices being heard. It also explores the repression and harming of those voices, but chiefly shows the triumph of the will to speak, the freeing, the recovery and the enjoyment of tongues.

Is It Possible to Slow Down, Do Less & Earn More Money Online?
Too many people who venture online to make money, waste their time rushing from site to site trying to find the next big scheme about how to make truck loads of money online. They jump in feet first thinking that any day now millions of dollars are going to land in their online account with millions more to follow. But if it was really that easy, we'd all be doing it.
Not only that, but all this crazy hurrying and frantic searching for get-rich-quick schemes (that don't work except for the people who are selling the schemes to the terminally gullible) is a stressful waste of time.
It never works. It's not that easy to make money online. Most of these so called money-making "gurus" will try and tell you that all you need to do is buy their software (or ebook) install something on your computer with just "one mouse click" and hey presto, instant millions.
Really? People believe that? It seems so because those same "gurus," and some new ones, are still online trying to convince people that it's possible to earn internet riches overnight. So people must still be buying this stuff. But where are all those instant millionaires who bought into it all?…
Well now that I've finished telling you what doesn't work online, let me tell you what does.
The Sustainable Online Business
When it comes to working online, it's far better, and easier to make money if you slow down, and instead of searching for the non-existent pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, concentrate of building a sustainable online business.
A successful website is one that people want to visit because it has the answers to the questions they have.
People come to the internet looking for information. Some information they expect to find for free and other information they are willing to pay for. But with a great website you can make money with your free information too. In some cases you can earn more with free information that's readily available at your website, then by selling reports and ebooks.
A good online business is one that's sustainable and will continue to attract visitors for years. So when you set up a website, or if you already have one, build it up into an authority site where anyone searching for information in your niche will find the answers they're looking for at your site.
Think It Through Very Carefullly
You begin by building such a website by slowing down and taking time out to think about and plan how you can improve your site to turn it into a financial powerhouse. And you achieve this by turning it into an information powerhouse.
A website like this will automatically attract links from other site owners who want to share your information with their own visitors.
Make Yours the "go to" Website With More Thought & Planning
So if you have a website, or you're thinking of creating one, give plenty thought to how you're going to use it to become THE "go to" site that attracts thousands of visitors a day and gets 'Tweeted' and 'liked' all over the internet.
The more time you put into planning and thinking it through, the more successful your website will be.
So if you want to make more money online, stop rushing around and trying to get rich online. Instead, slow down, stop trying to hard and just do it right.
And everything else will follow.

Yamazaki is Suntory's flagship single malt, multi-layered with fruit and Mizunara aromas. From Yamazaki was born the surprising, delicate yet profound experience of a Japanese single malt. Spiritual and deep, its signature multi-layered taste is highly praised by whisky connoisseurs all over the world.
Today, Yamazaki is not only the No.1 single malt whisky in Japan, but is enjoyed in more than 35 countries.
The Distillery
Inspired by traditional Scottish whisky, Torii envisioned a Japanese approach by choosing a terrain and climate completely different to those of Scotland to create a unique kind of whisky. Yamazaki is thus the birthplace of Japanese whisky. Nestled proudly on the periphery of Kyoto, this region was formerly referred to as "Minaseno", where one of the purest waters of Japan originates.
Yamazaki is also home to Sen no Rikyu, Master of "The Way of Tea." Yamazaki is where the Katsura, Uji and Kizu rivers converge, providing a unique misty climate and one of Japan's softest waters. The diversity of this region's temperature and humidity creates ideal conditions for cask aging, known as the signature "Suntory Maturation."

A friend sent me this link which is an article about how owning a pet dog may help prevent allergies in children.
We don't own dogs. One of the reasons is because we live in a condo unit where pets are forbidden. Secondly, I am not a dog person. My husband is and would dearly love one should we ever live in a house with our own garden. I said yes, provided HE does all the cleaning up after the dog. I'll be damned if I had to be a career woman + mum + house cleaner + cook AND dog keeper too.
Anyway, this article reminds me of our trip to UK when Connor was 10 months old. We'd made a stopover in Dubai, staying with our friends and their two toddlers and dog. Connor had been displaying signs of not being well as he was refusing all food. He wasn't running a temperature or anything though, just refusing food which was very unusual for him.
When we got to the UK, Connor had two bouts of projectile vomiting. After that, he was fine. What we didn't know was either he was or we were still carrying some sort of bug that was transmitted through close contact.
Every single person we came into close contact with during our first week in the UK fell ill. My parents-in-laws stayed in bed for 2 days. My sis-in-law had bouts of vomiting. Scores of British relatives and friends had tummy upsets and fevers and most were ill for at least a week. The worst hit were the children of Dear Hubby's senior management exec - they were sick for 2 weeks. Oops. No bonus that year for Dear Hubby.
The only people who were unaffected were people who had spent some time living in Asia recently and/or people with dogs. Cats didn't seem to help as my in-laws have a pet cat and they were sick as a... er... dog.
I thought it was very interesting that the dog owners had some sort of immunity against whatever we were carrying. Clearly whatever bug we were carrying was familiar to immune systems that had been to Asia as a friends who had just returned from years of living in Asia (but had no dogs) did not fall ill. Every other Brit just about dropped dead, felled by the bug except the dog owners.
So there you go. Proof that dogs are more than just man's best friend.

Why China hasn't crashed and won't crash.
Many have predicted a crash in China that will occur at any moment. This has been going on regularly since the early 1990s when the Economist started the tradition. China hasn't crashed though. Why? It's because they have found a way to end the business cycle.
In a western economy, the business cycle starts off with lowering interest rates spurring lending increases and further lending increases via the money multiplier effect. The money supply grows, capital is built and eventually a shortage of good investments happens. More and more marginal investments are invested in. When you think of marginal investments, think McMansions in remote parts of California's central valley. The price of the investments is driven up by the increasingly available capital. Eventually capital stops growing and capital built in anticipation of further credit growth cannot sustain itself or find a buyer and this causes loans to default. This causes the money multiplier to work in reverse and crash the system. The banks foreclose on home owners. Eventually there is a banking crisis and the government must borrow money to bail out the banks. In the U.S, taxpayers get stuck with the bill for this.
In China, the same thing happens, but when the loans start defaulting, the government prints up the money and buys the bad debts. Thus, in China, nobody gets stuck with the bill except for Yuan holders and there is upward pressure on the Yuan because they are net exporters. The Japanese are net exporters, but they weaken the Yuan by buying treasuries. China does this to some extent, but lately they haven't been increasing their treasury position as much as they used to.
There are problems with the Chinese approach. The main one is moral hazard. If banks are not allowed to fail they will make insanely risky bests. This is why China makes sure that the banks follow strict lending guidelines. For instance, China will issue a decree that since the housing market is overbuilt that no loans will go to new cement production plants. In this way, in China, banks are partially privatized central planning. What about politicians using their influence to benefit themselves? The Chinese have found a way to prevent corruption such that it undermines the financial system. The death penalty is regularly given out for financial crimes, while nobody went to prison for the 2008 fraud except for one or two small lenders. That's not to say that there's no corruption in China, it's just managed well enough that it doesn't undermine the system.
What does this say about our banking system though? Why do we do this boom/bust cycle to ourselves? I think generally it's a clever little game that the bankers use to get other people to create assets that they then take from them and resell to their friends with newly created money after the bank bailout and business cycle reset. It's a power consolidation mechanism for the economy that regularly transfers property from those who get access to credit later to those who get access to credit earlier in the business cycle. A lot of people have discovered how the whole thing works throughout the last 100 years and it hasn't really changed much. In the west, it's the bankers world and we only live in it, so it's good to understand it and master business cycles to be a better investor. Nevertheless, China has a different model and until western analysts recognize this reality, they'll never be able to predict anything about China's economy. Doing so would acknowledge that there is some fundamental oddness about how things work in the west and this is too big of a red pill for most of them to swallow.

A Tribute to Charlie Chaplin
While many silent film stars have been forgotten by the general public, most of their work lost forever, "Charlie Chaplin" is still a household name in most of the world.
This is partly due to the fact that Mr. Chaplin was an astute businessperson, retaining ownership of his films, carefully preserving them, and rereleasing them on a regular basis to new audiences. But it is also because Charlie Chaplin, The Little Tramp — who was distinctly different from Charles Chaplin himself, despite Freud's opinion that Chaplin basically played himself as he was in his "dismal" youth — was a universal character who appealed to every person who has ever been poor, downtrodden, or put-upon.
And I do mean every person. Even Adolf Hitler loved Chaplin so much that he trimmed his handlebar mustache to match The Little Tramp's — which later made it easier for the strongly anti-fascist Chaplin to parody Hitler in The Great Dictator.
So popular was Chaplin that at the very first Oscar ceremonies, the Academy decided to remove his name from the competition and instead give him a Special Award for versatility and genius in acting, writing, directing and producing for The Circus. They knew he would walk away with everything. His next nomination wasn't until 1941, and in 1972 he was given an honorary Oscar "For the incalculable effect he has had in making motion pictures the art form of this century." That was truly an understatement. Before Chaplin, "the pictures" were just that: Pictures.
Here's something to ponder, in these days of rich, talentless teenage stars: When Chaplin became the first millionaire to emerge from the movie industry, he was only 29 years old.
And so we celebrate what would have been Sir Charles Chaplin's birthday by gathering together all the many Internet resources that can help us understand this remarkable life and career. There are many of them, of course, and many opinions about his personal life, his public career, his politics, and his films. Rather than belabor the subject further, I'll let his various fans speak for themselves.

KILLEEN, Texas (KWTX) The Central Texas Veterans Health Care System is looking for volunteers to drive veterans to and from their appointments at the Veterans Medical Center in Temple and particularly to transport veterans from Killeen.
(Photo by Kathleen Serie)
Volunteer driver Bill Workman said this program especially helps veterans who are disabled, live alone, or have no other way to get to Temple.
"We've got a lot of older folks, Second World War, Korea, especially that are homebound or can't drive," volunteer driver Bill Workman said.
"This is a way of saying, 'I can help you out'," volunteer driver Harlan Hively said.
He drives veterans to and from an outpatient VA clinic in Austin each Thursday.
Hively said he wasn't able to join the military due to medical complications, and wanted to serve those who could.
"I feel that the veterans need to have someone to say thank you for your service, and so this is the way that I can say thank you for your service," Hively said.
Navy Veteran Homer Percivill rides in the van from Bryan College Station every four months.
"This is great, because you go to a regular hospital, it's like you're treated like everybody else," Percivill said. "Here, they know you're a veteran, and most of them are veterans, so they understand."
Volunteers must have a valid driver's license, proof of current insurance, and a safe driving record.
Applicants must also pass a physical examination and background check.
Volunteers are eligible for meals, flu shots and an extensive volunteer recognition program.
For information about becoming a volunteer driver in Killeen, contact the Voluntary Service Office at (254) 743-0515, or (254) 743-0740.

Q: What are you working on right now?
A: A book about journaling and multimedia.
Q: Why do you make art?
A: Hell, yeah.
Q: What's your current favorite, can't-live-without-it tool/supply/material/junkyard find?
A: I can't live without any of it. I have whittled my existence as an artist and a human into city-sized portions. We live in 550 square feet of space, my Man, my Cat and I. I use all of it and buy more when I need it.
Q: What's your favorite tool or material?
A: A brush
Q: If you could surround yourself with only one color, what would it be?
A: Blasphemy. I used to think this would be the color plum but I have drifted.
Q: What do you listen to when you create?
A: Podcasts when I need to focus, music when I need to dance.
Podcasts: Snap Judgement, This American Life, Good Food
Music: Olle Nyman, Frazey Ford, Mimicing Birds
Q: What is on your workspace right now?
A: My Man and I just rearranged the apartment. So when you walk into the apartment you walk into out mutual workspace (my sewing room/painting area/computer desk, his music making and listening space). This would be a living room and dining room to other folk. Pass through our bedroom into what would be a walk in closet. This is our Love Nest. It fits our retro blue sofa, TV and Wii, a lamp and table and a bookcase.
Q: What's the best book you've read lately?
A: Current Read: Deafening; Moon Over Manifest; Botanical Drawing in Color; Making Color Sing; Major Pettigrew's Last Stand
Q: What's the most inspiring trip you've ever taken or adventure you've ever had?
A: Barcelona.I fell in love with street art.
Q: What's the last thing you cooked?
A: Cooking? Pardon? Wheatgrass and apple juice

A: Hip Boro Bag made while on vacation in Barcelona.
Q: What's your favorite place in all the world?
A: Being hugged by my Man
Q: What one thing do you want to do that you haven't done yet?
A: Go up in an air balloon.
Q: What's the best day you've ever had?
A: Getting accepted on the spot during my portfolio review at F.I.T. They told me as I was sitting in front of them that it was unprecedented that they accept me right there but that they were impressed.
Q: What's today's Word to Live By?
A: Live your dream and wear your passion.
Q: What is your guilty pleasure?
A: Whoopie Pies made by Baked in Red Hook Brooklyn.
Q: What's your one favorite material thing?
A: My workbench with easy to clean metal top.
Q: If you could have one superpower, what would it be?
A: Winged Flight
Q: With whom would you love to spend one day making art?
A: Picasso
Q: When is your favorite time of day?
A: Morning. New York City, Brooklyn, is not a morning sort of place. Culturally people get to work between 8 and 10. So waking and walking early is sleepy and quiet.
Q: What is your earliest memory?
A: Standing naked on my bureau so excited to be up there. I think a photo was taken.
Q: What's your best piece of advice for artists?
A: You will make crap, you will make mistakes, and your job is to compassionately accept this and to passionately seek your singular voice and do everything in your power to strut your stuff.

"Ch-ch-ch-chia!" I'm sure you're no stranger to that catchy little chant promoting the gift of a Chia Pet during the winter holidays. Well, that famous terra cotta head smeared with chia seeds may have been onto something all along.
Beyond the cute in-home science experiment, chia seeds are acclaimed as a nutritional powerhouse containing omega-3 fatty acids, carbohydrates, protein, fiber, antioxidants, and calcium. But did you know that chia seeds are good for you on the inside and out? With inspiration from the Chia Pets' 1980's debut, I want to share a 3-ingredient Chia Seed Face Scrub that will make you sacrifice seeds from your morning smoothie.
1/4 cup of Coconut oil
2 tbsp Chia Seed
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
- Warm the coconut oil in a bowl until it becomes fluid. Allow to cool if needed before applying to face.
- Add the chia seed to the bowl while stirring.
- Add the lemon juice continuing to stir.
- Apply the scrub to a freshly washed face in a circular motion with your finger tips.
- Use a wet wash cloth to remove the scrub and splash water on your face.
This oil-based scrub is excellent for dry skin and will leave your skin feeling soft. Thanks to this scrub, chia's got it goin' on and now you do too!

Sidetracked - Andy Farrow
In the wake of the AGM and dinner - 5 " intrepid " cavers from the TSG attempted a Sunday trip - after much deliberation - Sidetrack Cave , Eldon Quarry was selected as a non-SRT route was preferred. Thus with a plan made, gear was packed, a call-out put on the board and we drove up to the snowy wastes. Once all lights and other stuff was sorted we visited the postbox on the quarry gate to fill in the visitors book and double check navigation-and after walking up the lane we quickly established that we were "close". But the actual cave was over a fence and down a quarry terrace - so we had to find a way down to it - "close " didn't cut the mustard.
After careful wandering about in circles - we found 2 resin anchors in the floor - whoo hoo .
In keeping with my maxim that" electron ladders" are the work of the devil " I rigged the rope for SRT and descended first - to check that the ladder reached the bottom - it was quite a big drop and quite a small ladder. It quickly became apparent that the ladder was woefully short - and wasn't going to be of any use. But we had loads of rope - so the rebelay was rigged and Alastair Gott joined me on the terrace - with the intent of using our SRT kits to get the other 3 down. The flaws in this plan quickly became apparent as I nervously watched my kit disappear up the face - only to snag several times. Having second thoughts - the 3 remaining at the top decided to abandon the trip and walk back to Castleton.
Undeterred - Al and I pressed on - quickly eliminating the false lead that I assume to be the destroyed remains of Alsops cave. As neither of us had bothered to read the description or guidebook - we had a flawed notion that the entrance was "500m of hands / knees crawl" - a long slog - but we both had good kneepads so - lets go. Getting in the cave - with me first - I quickly found that it was flat out, wet and awkward. We endured this till the first chamber was reached - which had some nice formations to be admired. But with nothing but further awkward flat out crawling to be seen - I realised that 500m of this [each way] was more than I could manage. So we decided to call the trip and claim victory as we were the only ones to actually get underground.
We exited and de-rigged without issue and after a team photo - headed back to the chapel for coffee and cake. Once warm and dry we actually read the guide book - to discover that the crawl is only 150m and DOES open up….If I had known that - I would have pushed harder - but as al said - we can go back and try again. So - that was the Sunday trip – sidetracked.

Stream Dead Flowers' Gritty New Album In Full.
In September 2009, Under the Radar magazine ran a piece in which of Montreal frontman Kevin Barnes interviewed Daryl Hall of Hall and Oates fame. It was an interesting read to be sure: The two unequivocal pop geniuses debated the merits of using advancements in recording technology to create byzantine masterworks so complex that executing them in a live setting is all but impossible.
Barnes argues in that piece that one's recorded output typically survives longer than the artists themselves — but at what cost? Creating an album that can never really be translated into a live setting ultimately ends up shafting the most loyal of an artist's fanbase — the ones who pay money to come to the shows.
This concept is something Dead Flowers frontman Corey Howe has thought about a lot over the last few years as he began putting together a backing band and writing songs that would eventually become his band's first full-length LP. How do you balance the live and the recorded?
Actually, Howe is pretty sure about how to handle that, he says. If you don't see an instrument onstage during one of the Dead Flowers' live performances, you're not going to hear it on their record either.
"I hate going to a show and seeing a band after listening to the record — or vice versa," Howe says. "When you see them, they don't sound like the record. What we really wanted to do was capture — as close as we can — a live performance. We don't have any keys onstage at this point, so there's no keys on the record. There wasn't a lot of dubs. Some people go into the studio and actually use the studio and use different instruments and things like that, but we just wanted to capture what we already have onstage. We're playing all the parts we play live — nothing extra."
Meaning? When Dead Flowers release their debut record, For You, the tracks captured in-studio by Jeffrey Charles Saenz at his Modern Electric Sound Recorders should be extremely familiar to anyone who has ever witnessed the live onslaught of the band's overdriven brand of Texas rock. Along with fellow local bands like Quaker City Night Hawks, Jonathan Tyler and the Northern Lights, The Roomsounds, The Hanna Barbarians, Somebody's Darling and Saenz's own outfit, J. Charles and the Trainrobbers, Dead Flowers finds itself a part of a growing movement in North Texas to produce harder-edged, guitar-based rock tracks with heavy country undertones and a healthy nod to Texas blues.
For a band like Dead Flowers, Howe explains, this multidimensional sound is one that just kind of comes naturally due to its members' diverse musical backgrounds and tastes.
"Vinny [Tulley] is a blues guitar player, Ed [Chaney] is kind of a metal drummer, Evan [Johnson] is a hip-hop bass player, and I'm a singer-songwriter," Howe says. "It makes for our own sound having all those different elements. We don't all own the same records or like the same bands."
Add to that mix the soulful-yet-menacing whine of Howe's lead vocals on the dirty Southern-fried blues of "I Won't Go," the disc's opener and lead single. Or the folky "California Song" that bisects the album, starting as a pleasantly wistful, finger-picked jaunt before devolving into a twangy, drinking song complete with profanity-laced group vocals. Or album standout, "I'm a Man," with its classic rock dustings, country twang, almost Jack White-like approach to the blues and Howe's own vigorous vocal attack that, maybe, best sums up the band's aesthetic.
If nothing else, Howe is certain of the fact that his sound is one that has started to find an audience.
On the album's title track, Howe lyrically touches on this: "We all want to be good for the ones we love," he sings. "And we all want to be strong for the ones we love. Yeah, I'm gonna do it for you."
It's a sort of tip-o'-the-hat to the Kickstarter backers who helped fund For You. The ultimate goal for this record, Howe says, is to have it be something that both the band and its fans can be proud of — for a long time to come, too.
"We did Kickstarter, which is awesome because this record was paid for by people who care about us and believe that we can do something better," Howe explains. "I really want to honor that by not sticking around Dallas and just being a local band. Our next step is to get a van and get on the road. Essentially, these people invested in us and we want to make sure that we do good by them. We have ties in Chicago already. We're ready. We just need a van."
First, though, Dead Flowers will host a release show for For You on April 20 at the soon-to-open Deep Ellum spot, Three Links.
Before that release show, though, the band has been kind enough to pass along an exclusive stream of the entire record for us to share with Central Track readers.
Give it a listen below.

Well in yet another attempt to delay the court hearing evil momma filed a motion that Dean, Max, me and she should undergo MMPI testing. Strangely enough the only one Gail felt did not need to take the test is her husband who admitted to physically abusing Max and also that he did not love max under oath!
The motion stated that since Dean is out of town on business 21 days a week (which if it were true would mean he was only home 3 days a week) and i would be Max's care giver I should be tested. I am happy to report that the new judge (Judge Ayers) did not fall for the lies and the attempt to delay the case again. We are going foreword on March 5th with no testing.......
She she the litany of nasty emails all week long calling Dean and unfit parent and me a drunk....

Labrada Green Coffee Bean Extract
Green Coffee Bean Extract is a natural powder extracted from unroasted coffee beans to ensure maximum potency and effectiveness. In contrast to caffeine, which is a stimulant, Green Coffee Bean Extract induces fat loss via non-stimulant mechanisms:*
- Slows down the absorption of glucose from the small intestine and lowers after meal blood glucose levels.
- Inhibits carbohydrate digesting enzymes and the actual absorption process itself.
- Has chlorogenic acid, which significantly inhibits fat synthesizing enzymes, while increasing the activity of fat burning enzymes.
- Increases blood levels of adiponectin. Adiponectin enhances fat burning and also lowers blood glucose (blood sugar) and reduces triglyceride levels.
Green Coffee Bean Extract is able to significantly lower fasting blood sugar levels and stop after-meal blood sugar surges in their tracks. This blood sugar regulation may contribute as a deterrent to long-term health problems. It also helps guard against extra body fat storage. Green Coffee Bean Extract has been reported to have antioxidant properties, similar to those of green tea and grape seed extract. Antioxidants, by nature, provide support against oxidative stress by helping to reduce free radicals in the body. In this way, Green Coffee Bean Extract is far more than a fat loss aid ... it's a natural tool to help you feel your best and maintain overall health.*
