Autohaus Returns to Rolex Series with O'Connell, Taylor
Sept. 8, 2010
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – Autohaus Motorsports returns to the GRAND-AM Rolex Sports Car Series presented by Crown Royal Cask No. 16 for the season finale at Miller Motorsports Park with the No. 46 Chevrolet Camaro GT.R built by Pratt & Miller.
The Autohaus Camaro was last on track for Round 9 at New Jersey Motorsports Park in July. This will be the team's third race with the new Chevy Camaro. They have been using the 2010 season to learn about the new racecar, and have had different driver combinations at each event.
This weekend sees the return of championship winning Chevrolet factory driver Johnny O'Connell. He first drove for the team in New Jersey with co-driver Lawson Aschenbach. Record temperatures and an early weekend incident dashed the team's hopes for a podium finish, but gave the team valuable track time with the new car.
"New Jersey was a challenging weekend for the team," explained technical director Marcus Haselgrove. "A crash in morning practice set us back quite a bit, although our crew worked incredibly hard to get the car ready for qualifying with some spare parts provided by Stevenson Motorsports. We would not have been back out there without their assistance. It's really great that the Chevrolet teams can count on each other."
The team has high hopes for the Utah race setting the standard for a competitive season in 2011. Joining O'Connell in the car this weekend will be a young star of GRAND-AM racing, Jordan Taylor.
Taylor, the 19-year-old son of sports car champion and owner of SunTrust Racing, Wayne Taylor, has competed this season in the No. 30 Mazda RX-8. He has earned three pole positions, two podiums and seven top ten finishes in 10 races this season. Some difficulty with the No. 30 car at the last race in Montreal meant there was a possibility that the team would not be able to enter the race at Miller. With Taylor's plans for the season finale up in the air, he was excited to find out that he would have an opportunity to join Autohaus Motorsports at Miller Motorsports Park on September 11th.
"I am really looking forward to heading to Miller this weekend with Autohaus Motorsports and Johnny O'Connell," said Taylor. "After leaving Montreal, not knowing if I would be in a car for the finale, I have to thank the Autohaus team for this opportunity. I'm really excited to be working with Johnny. After watching him for years in the Corvette program it will be nice to have him as a teammate to learn from. I feel that we will be competitive throughout the weekend."
After a disappointing season ending injury for one of the team's drivers at Round 3 in Barber, Autohaus Motorsports had to work hard to pull together any program for 2010. With a newly converted Camaro the team opted to enter a few races to learn about the car, and build a database for 2011.
"The past few events for the team have been good. The support of GM has been instrumental in our return to the track for a few of the races this year," explains team owner Robert Kirland. "It's never easy to rebuild a program mid-season, but with their help it made sense for us to come to a few of the races to help build for 2011. I was especially pleased when they suggested that Johnny join us for NJ, and return again for Utah. His experience with GM and Pratt & Miller cars is invaluable to us. It was General Motors who suggested that Jordan might be available for the race at Miller and put us in touch. It was really great to see Chevrolet sweep the podium in Montreal, and Autohaus Motorsports is ready to help put up some more manufacturers' points for Chevy."
To help shorten the learning curve with the new Camaro the team has additional support this weekend from Katech Engines, as well as engineering support from Pratt & Miller.
"Pratt & Miller is thrilled to have Autohaus back on the Grand American circuit in their newly converted Camaro," said Lynn Bishop from Pratt & Miller Engineering. "Autohaus has demonstrated throughout the years that they are a very professional team capable of winning races. We are proud they decided to convert their GXP.R to the new Camaro GT.R and we are confident they will contribute Chevrolet manufacturer points and compete for race wins."

1. CarmaLink hardware is designed and assembled in the USA. Just like your favorite set of tools out in the garage. Our GPS transponders are built to keep working and never let you down.
2. All our software is written in New York. Our competition likes to buy from 3rd party vendors in China. Chinese hardware manufacturer source code is hastily written, buggy and has been known to have backdoors built in from the factory.
3. We know the entire system from A – Z, inside and out. That's because we have built and designed every single piece of what makes the CarmaLink AVL solution work. From transponder hardware to the Cloud. We aren't afraid to get our hands dirty.
4. If you do ever have a problem with CarmaLink – you won't get the runaround. All bugs are directly assigned to our NY based engineers to be dealt with immediately.
5. Never sign another contract for AVL again. We know our product is great, because our customers go out of their way to tell us. That's why we feel confident enough to not lock you into an agreement, unlike our competition. Add extra GPS transponders when you need them, and pause them in the off-season to lower your bill.
6. Room for growth. CarmaLink was built with your future in mind. We are one of the only AVL / GPS telematics vendors in North America to offer a modern (easy to use) REST API that can make any complex fleet integration project a reality.

Lucknow: Uttar Pradesh government on Sunday blamed
the Centre for not releasing Rs 300 crore to check the spread
of Encephalitis, while rejecting Union Health Minister Ghulam
Nabi Azad`s claim that lack of sanitation and proper drinking
water was hampering the battle against the disease.
"The state has done whatever it can from its limited
resources to check spread of Acute Encephalitis Syndrome
(AES). The state has sent Rs 300 crore proposal for providing
sanitation and proper drinking water in eastern UP but it has
not been accepted," a health department spokesman said here.
Reacting to media reports regarding Health Minister`s
letter to state government, he said till date no such letter
was received by the government.
The spokesman said after 2007, the year when BSP government
came to power in the state, vaccination programme for children
up to 15 years was started due to which AES deaths declined
from 1042 in 2005 to 164 in 2011.
"As far as AES is concerned the Centre has neither
developed an vaccine nor gave any support to the state to
check the disease," he said.
In his letter, Azad has reportedly said the findings of
scientists from National Institute of Virology, Pune suggested
that AES, a water-borne disease, continued to prevail in
eastern UP as proper sanitation and drinking water were not
available to residents.
The letter said hand pumps for drinking water needed to be
replaced by pumps that get water from more than 70-ft below
ground surface where AES virus cannot reach.
The toll in the viral disease in eastern Uttar Pradesh has
climbed to 488 this year.

I love going to IHOP & Denney's just for their pancakes. They taste so much better than the store-bought mixes that I've always bought but I just figured that was how it was & there was nothing I could do about it. I don't know why I hadn't thought of making my batter from scratch before but I'm so glad that eventually I thought of it. This recipe is SO much better than any of the store bought mixes & I was even surprise to find out that I liked it a lot more than the restaurant pancakes. Best part is that I always have the ingredients on hand & they are a lot cheaper than the store bought mixes. I often double this recipe but then I always have a bunch left over. I throw the extras into the freezer & then just throw them into the toaster for a quick hot breakfast for the kids.
Old Fashioned Pancakes
- 1 1/2c all-purpose flour
- 3 1/2t baking powder
- 1t salt
- 2T white sugar
- 1 1/4c milk
- 1 egg
- 3T butter, melted
In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt & sugar. Make a well in the center and pour in the milk, egg and melted butter; mix until smooth.
Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium low heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4c for each pancake.
Brown on both sides and serve hot.

- Really pigmented! I like to use the puff to place the colour on the apple of my cheeks and then blend it out with a blush brush! The puff places just the right amount of blush on your cheeks just by pressing it once to twice on your cheeks!
- Adorable packaging! As you all know by now, packaging is a huge thing for me! And I love the packaging of this blush! I think it's super unique and the puff is so cute!!
- I really like the colour of the Apricot macaroon. I'm really into orange toned blushes lately but I find Candy Doll in Carrot Orange is a bit too orange for certain looks so I like to mix it with the strawberry pink to create a more peachy look. Now that I have this blush I don't need to mix it with anything to create that peachy/apricot tone that I love!

[Review] Majorlica Majorca Puff de Cheek in OR302
I'm going to review Majorlica Majorca's Puff de Cheek today! It's the first Majorlica item I've reviewed so far but I actually have quite a lot of majorlica products and I love them all! So I will slowly get around to reviewing them eventually
Majorlica's Puff de Cheek from the Sugary trap collection was released at the beginning of this year
These blushes are inspired by the french macaroons and the cute tins are shaped like macaroons!
It's available in 4 shades but I think the Vanilla Macaroon was not released in Malaysia/Singapore because I didn't see that one in stores
The Peach and Strawberry colours are really cute too but I already have a lot of blushes similar to those colours like my Candy Dolls so I ended up getting the Apricot Macaroon (OR302).
I'm really into peachy/orange blushes lately so I had to get my hands on the Apricot Macaroon! I love the packaging! I think it's so cute! And it's the first blush I've came across that comes with a puff!
This blush retails for RM44 at Watson (around 15aud)
There's seriously nothing bad I can say about this blush so I'm just going to list out all the things I love about this blush!
I find it's really difficult to review blushes because they don't really show up much in photos and you have to pack on a lot for it to show but luckily this blush is so pigmented it was really easy to pack on the colours for it to show up in pictures so this time I don't need to photoshop any colours onto my cheeks like I did when I reviewed the cosmagic blush! The colours you see on my cheeks are exactly what the blush looks like in real life!
The colours are not that obvious in the first two pictures but you can still see a tinge of the pretty apricot colours! The last three photos I've packed on more blush so that the colour will show up in the photos!
I completely forgot to swatch this blush But I think the photos with me wearing the blush should be able to compensate for that
Overall I will give 4.5/5
I haven't really tested its staying power because I haven't worn this blush out all day yet and that why I can't give it full ratings!
What do you all think of the apricot macaroon colour? Hope you found this review useful

I was fiddling on Pinterest tonight {insert contented, happy, sigh here} and I found two, fantastically, awesome, magnificent things. First thing, the coolest blog idea I think I've ever seen. Check it out, when you get a second. I am starting this challenge tonight. I think that this would be an amazing gift to give my parents and my grandma, for a Christmas gift. In addition to the This is Me Challenge, there is a challenge to journal about your kids. What a great blessing to give to their kids someday……………oh I get teary just thinking about it.
The second thing that I found, is this really cool idea for headbands!
I am typing and cutting t-shirts and watching the 6th season of Bones on Netflix…..Multitasking at its finest. I know, I know, my boys don't look good with headbands, but three of my very best-friends have baby girls, little girls, and bigger-little girls. Therefore all of these doll-babies will have fancy headbands because, well, I can make them!
All in all, a fairly productive night…..and now for the fun stuff! The This is Me Challenge Part 1 (this link has the challenge I am participating in tonight)
If I were forced to go back in time, but could take 10-modern conveniences with me, what would I take?
- My heating pad; insulation was not a high priority and I don't like to be cold. So heating pad=happy (warm) Jessica.
- A notebook and paper, because how else would I be able to tell my kids about all the cool things going back in time taught me!
- My camera, I couldn't live without documenting life through my lens. 🙂
- Mascara, everything is better with a coat of Clinique Lash Doubling Mascara.
- My Nasa foam bed. No explanation necessary!
- Toothbrush, because oral hygiene is very important!
- MP3 player, loaded with LOTS of great music.
- Dry Shampoo, from what I know about the olden days, baths were few and far between….Nothing worse than greasy hairs! ;D
- A microwave, who would ever want to live without one?
- A shaver, the European look isn't for me! Unless the location of the olden days where I am living is close to either the north or south pole……then I would consider not shaving…..insulation you know!
Here is my contribution to the This is Me Challenge! 🙂

Issue 22 of Whotopia is out now.
Yes, the one with the massive Cyber-article. On Cybermen. That was a useful coincidence really.
Pride and Cyber-prejudice (now what is the point in an elongated article if you can't come up with a really godawful pun for the title) started as an SOS from Jez Strickley. Whotopia were several pages short for Issue 22 and they needed a miracle inside two days.
Instead, they turned to me.
No, I have no idea why either.
Jez and Bob Furnell wanted seven thousand words on Cybermen within forty-eight hours. I say wanted, it was more kind of an "asked kindly for some words, which could be on anything, and it'd be nice if they came in ASAP."
So, faced with the juggernaut, I did what any other writer would do in the position. Begged for help.
The miraculous bit was when it came along.
First off, I had Andrew Pixley to thank. Writer of more indepth TV history articles than you can fit in a massive anthology, and lovely guy to boot. Whilst I was writing this meagre article, he uncovered phone hacking world wide, wrote a novel on Sidney Newman, and had a 700 page critique on I Claudius finished. I exaggerate only a little (or a lot) but the man is an inspiration to all far lazier writers I could name. Like ones who write blogs people might be reading at this very moment. Anyhow, I expressed doubt at my ability, he told me to go do it, I did it. Without a nice Pixley comment at exactly the right part of the day, the thing wouldn't have happened. So he gets thanks right off the bat.
Phil Williams AKA Colonel Renegade AKA Him from Wales. He supplied the colourful description of his love of Cybermen in the early part of the article. Being Victorian in nature, I had to edit some of his swearing out, but otherwise utterly as it was. He DID also create the shortest Doctor Who audio in history, and I have a copy somewhere.
Arnold T Blumberg is a writer and expert on Doctor Who, zombies, horror, The Thing, comics, spinetingling horrors, old school horror, horror movies and LEGO. He can be found in a Starbucks near you, furiously writing away for a deadline, which could be on any number of things. Here, he continues his long tradition of being extraordinarily nice to me, by providing some quotes about his love of Cybermen and their return this year.
During the Wheel in Space section, I mention my first ever article for Whotopia. It may be online, but please don't go looking for it. It is really really bad. Bob wont ever say that, because he's a lovely chap, but it is. Sounds like it was written by a grumpy teenager. (Written eight years ago, it WAS written by a grumpy teenager!)
Seumas Skinner is Shim. Yes, if in doubt, bring in yer best pal. I could say many things about me and Mandy's best man at our wedding, and it would embarrass him greatly. (Isn't that what pals are for? Heh!) I will say he has the patience of a saint (he's laughing about now, but he DID survive sharing a flat with me for eight months, the poor sod) and I do genuinely believe he'll be a big shot politico one day... if his girlfriend doesn't beat him to it.
The Lucky Lady lot. McRani, Susan, Menny, Pete, Sosia and Steve W. Well, someone had to say something good about Revenge of the Cybermen. Lovely folk, even if they have some strange opinions on Doctor Who. Like not liking The Moonbase. Or liking Terminus. McRani also produced the joke very early on (about Moonbases), and is a man of the 90s. The 1790s.
One day I shall look in a pint glass forlornly, looking back at my missed chances, and tell the bar staff of the time I knew of that Tom Jordan, multiple time BAFTA and Oscar winner. No one will believe me. Tom took the very little info I can pass on about writing, and ran with it to the point where if he hasn't already, he will soon swiftly pass me by as a far superior talent. As one of the finest young playwrights I've read (is he even twenty yet?), the only thing that will prevent greatness is if he gains an ego or drinks all his shots away. If he does either, I will hunt him down and kill him.
Toby Hadoke. You may have heard of him. Earlier this year, I wrote him a "nice article" reply about one of his many pieces, and he sent me a very nice thanks. So naturally my next reaction was to say "Can you supply lots of quotes for my article, ta. PS I can't pay you." Instead of doing the normal thing in a situation like that, ignoring the pest or putting a hit out on them, Toby Hadoke gave me a long reply about his thoughts on Cybermen and some of his work, most of which I was able to use in the article. He's an exceptionally busy man and took time out to give me some help. I am very thankful of that.
Ben Adams (who will one day write that story about zombie toast) and John Davies (who once wrote his dissertation on Doctor Who continuity errors) both supplied support, and are wonderfully talented as writers too.
And finally, a special mention for Joe Lidster. A week after the article went to its Editors, he asked me if I wanted some quotes. I'd timed asking him for just after he went off on a holiday, very bad timing on my part. Joe is a writer I just knew would be pegged for big things about a paragraph into his first story of his I read. Eight years on, he has some acclaimed SJA scripts to his name, one of which was called "too scary" by some of its target audience. (Now THAT is a review I'd love!) His offer to help, even coming too late, meant an awful lot to me, as has his many small bits of advice and help over the years, so he too gets an acknowledgement here.
So thank you all!
And next time I am asked to write 7k on a Doctor Who thing, like, say, The Zarbi, I'll ask much further in advance for the help!

A crashing cow kills man
July 16 , 2013
The victim's brother rightly said that being crushed by a cow is the last way you'd think of leaving this world. This 45-year-old who was asleep next to his wife when this cow that is said to have escaped from the nearby farm stepped onto the roof. The wife and the cow are unharmed.
The brother also said that he believes that it wasn't the cow that killed Joao (the victim), but it was the unreasonable amount of time that he had to wait for to get examined was what took his life. Joao is known to have suffered from internal bleeding and he allegedly died because he was made to wait too long to seek medical help. According to the Independent, the hospital denied this claim.
The local media says that this is not the first time such an incident has happened but this is the first time that a victim has lost his life because of it.

|Homecoming Campaign
IPAY Homecoming Campaign
Because we know it is essential for young people to experience the very best in live performing arts on a consistent and ongoing basis. With a little extra support this year, we can continue to meet your needs as you ensure that these opportunities are created, nurtured, shared, marketed, and toured.
Why Are We Homecoming
Click here to MAKE A DONATION to IPAY's Homecoming Campaign
About the Campaign / How You Can Help!Nearly forty years ago, our colleagues recognized a need to elevate the field of performing arts for young audiences and the first International Showcase was presented in Chicago in 1979. Twenty years later, our fellow presenters, producers, and artists gathered to create International Performing Arts for Youth—IPAY as we know it—to ensure that performing arts for young audiences would thrive in North America.
This year is a special year for IPAY as we celebrate 40 years of presenting our International Showcase. At Showcase 2018, we celebrate the theme of "Home" as we return to Philadelphia to anchor our operations here.
Calling Philadelphia home is among the changes you will see in the next year at IPAY. After a year of structured feedback from our members, the staff and board of IPAY have implemented many recommendations, including allowing for a wider variety of performances to be seen at Showcase, to elevate the presences of Spotlight Showcases, to increase membership benefits with more partnerships and programs, including IPAY's new Affinity Groups kicking off at Showcase 2018.
Today, we are at a crossroads at IPAY. In an ever-evolving world of priorities, we are looking for your help to support the operations of the organization so that we may continue to advance the mission of IPAY and sustain the level of service for the global sector of professional performing arts for young people. It is up to those of us in the field to secure the future of IPAY.
We now ask that you, as investors in performing arts for young audiences, help us in raising the financial goal of $22,000 for our FY2018. We know that all of us are already generous in our everyday contribution, and we are asking you to do what you can for IPAY. One the best ways to support IPAY is by becoming a member. Annual membership fees go a long way in supporting the annual organizational operations of IPAY. If you are already a dedicated member, we ask that you invite other colleagues in the field to join us as members of IPAY. By introducing new members, not only do we deepen the vision of our community, but their membership contribution goes directly towards supporting the operations of IPAY.
Additionally, we ask that you consider one of our other opportunities for support:

Security researchers recently showed that the company behind the MacKeeper application exposed the data of millions of its users. We're used to hearing about such security breaches, but in this case it didn't happen because of a software vulnerability or a clever social engineering attack. It happened because the MongoDB database used by the company was exposed to the open internet. Anyone who knew it was there could have queried the server and received a complete listing of the data it held.
MacKeeper is essentially a scareware application that uses dodgy marketing tactics to peddle software that purportedly makes your Mac run faster, but the nature of the software isn't the most important point here. What's interesting is the way that the security hole was discovered. The researchers used Shodan, a search engine that searches through millions of Internet connected devices. It's a useful — and terrifying — service that indexes thousands of unprotected webcams, database servers, traffic lights, power stations, and a host of other infrastructure that should absolutely not be on the open internet.
The researchers were able to find tens of thousands of MongoDB database servers with hundreds of terabytes of data exposed to anyone with the IP address, which can be discovered on Shodan. In the MacKeeper case, the researchers notified Kromtech, the app's developers, who fixed the problem in short order. But that leaves many thousands of database servers, many likely to be storing sensitive information, open to the wilds of the internet.
This issue seems to have been created by a combination of less than competent database admins and a rather unintelligent default setting on the part of MongoDB's developers, but it's worth keeping in mind that this isn't a problem impacting only MongoDB. Any database server can be misconfigured in the same way.
The lessons to be learned? Firstly, there is almost never a good reason to have a database server accessible to the open internet. Access to databases should be offered via an API with a rigorous authentication mechanism. Database servers should be accessible directly only on internal networks.
Secondly, this incident shows the value of thorough risk assessments. Companies holding private data should proactively audit their risk portfolio and the risk of databases exposed to the open internet should be be high up on any security checklist.
Thirdly, if you don't know a lot about database management or the specific database application you're using, it might be better to seek advice before you fill it with the private data of your users. Otherwise there's a good chance that you'll put those users at risk.

I haven't weighed in with any of my not very considerable heft on anything Oscar related yet. Odds are I won't. I do, however, like this sentence or two from Dennis Cozzalio, and the sentiment it stands for:
So maybe it's the fact that, in the dark shadow of the Directors Guild snubs of Clint Eastwood, Guillermo del Toro and Alfonso Cuaron, dear old, dotty Uncle Oscar looks poised to honor yet another contrived, good-for-you ensemble drama about man's inability to communicate/connect with/tolerate his fellow man—after all, we're all so much more tightly knit and understanding of each others' foibles and prejudices as a nation of moviegoers after having been force-fed Crash; why not use the power of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to bring us all closer together as a bruised and battered humanity subject to the chronologically scrambled chaos theory of Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu's Babel? (The models for these post-9/11 behavioral studies—the ensemble narratives of Robert Altman's films—were never quite so morally tidy or relentlessly showy in their pessimism, and therefore routinely escaped Academy coronation.)

It's been a while since I wrote a favourites post. In fact, the last time I raved about some of my most-loved beauty products was last Spring. And the award for worst blogger goes to…so it's time for some January beauty favourites.
Over the last month, I've been loving quite a few new products, some of which I was given for Christmas, some of which I've treated myself to because ya know, January is a miserable month so what's a girl going to do other than stock up on new beauty bits and bobs? Here's a few of my ultimate faves:
Coco Chanel Perfume
As much as I love my YSL Black Opium perfume, it's very much an evening scent. So I was delighted when my parents gave me this classic Coco Chanel perfume for Christmas. I think every woman should own a Chanel spritz at some point in their life. Classy, sophisticated and subtle; I've been spraying a little on my wrists every day and loving its nostalgic scent.
Scooper Dooper by Zella
My love for Zoella isn't something I've hidden from my blog and social channels. I think she's the perfect modern-day #Girlboss, influencer, icon….she's why I got into blogging and why I'm obsessed with watching daily vlogs. So anything from her bath and beauty range is often high on my favourites lists. Toby gave me Scooper Dooper for Christmas and it's by far my favourite product by Zoe yet. Not only is the packaging simply beautiful (hello rose gold detailing) but it makes the most amazing bubbles, smells gorgeous and leads your skin feeling truly pampered. What could be better?
L'oreal Pure Clay Glow Mask
My skin has been wreaking havoc this month thanks to the miserable weather and Christmas hangover so I decided to try one of L'Oreals new face masks as I've seen so many other beauty bloggers raving about them. So far, I've only tried the Glow Mask but have fallen head over heels. Almost immediately, I could see a real difference in my skin and I've started to use this once or twice a week to give my skin a bit more radiance. Yes, it's messy and very, very orange (Oompa Loompa style) but for the low price point and wonderful results, I think it's totally worth it.
This Works Deep Sleep Spray and Roller
I'm going to write a whole blog post about these wonder-products as one little mention in a favourites post just isn't enough. For someone who suffers with the dreaded 'busy brain' more often than not, particularly at nighttime, these have been a god send. I've had a lot on my mind recently (to be continued in said blog post) and so sleep has not been my friend. So I decided to treat myself. I'm sure you're not new to the idea of pillow sprays, but if you are, don't knock them 'till you try them. A few sprays of this over my pillow at night and I'm whisked away to a spa, to a cosy place, to somewhere where busy thoughts don't exist. As for the roller ball, I've actually been taking this to work and rolling it on my wrists every now and then to rid any stress and it works a treat.
Dior Maximizer 3D Lash Primer
I don't own that many high-end products, partly because I don't always see the point and partly (mainly) because my purse won't allow it. But this Dior Lash Primer is a game changer. I was very kindly given it as a gift for Christmas and it has completely revolutionised my everyday make up. Pop a layer or two of this on before your mascara and not only do my lashes look fuller and longer, it lasts all day long. No more flaky bits of mascara halfway down my face by lunchtime, no more dark circles under my eyes. Hallelujah!
What products have you been loving this month? xo

I snagged this snazzy door at an estate sale this past weekend because I loved the chippy paint.
The home this came from was filled with old stuff, and no doubt this door has seen many moons as well. It's not very sturdy standing up, but I had better plans for it anyways. I wanted to hang it on my living room wall.
I envisioned being able to hang prints from it by fastening chicken wire to the back. So, we headed to Lowes last night and picked up a roll of 1″ mesh chicken wire.
Last weekend I also found something I have been wanting for a while… an electric staplegun! For $5 at a garage sale, this thing was all mine.
So I started by turning the door over and rolling the wire over, then began stapling one long side!
I did a short end and then started on the other long side, making sure to pull the wire tight. After I stapled all 4 sides, I trimmed the excess with wire cutters.
I cut myself a few times. :( But I didn't care, it was done and looks awesome. And I got to use the staplegun, which worked awesome. I felt pretty powerful, and yelled "BAM!" everytime I fired it. My husband thought it was hilarious.
I got these prints made at Sam's and clipped them to the wire with lil' mini clothes pins. They are both photos I have taken, the bridge is in Waco and the beach is at home in Carlsbad, CA (near San Diego). I had other plans for these photos but they didn't pan out. More on that soon in another post. However, I am much happier with this!
The door looks awesome and I love imagining how old it is and how much history it has been alive for. Plus, many people passed up this door thinking it was pitiful. But it is so beautiful now!
Do you have anything you have turned from pitiful to beautiful? I would love to hear about it!
In other news…. the console table sold! The hubs listed both tables on Craigs List and got an email about it right away! Yeehaw! My first sale! Looking forward to this weekend and starting on something new. :)

This was such a great idea!! I love the color of the old door and the idea to use it for your beautiful pictures!!

Climate change represents one of the greatest environmental, social and economic threats facing the planet today. In Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) countries, climate change is a major threat to sustainable development and the attainment of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). The combined effects of climate change, increased global population and income growth, among others, threaten to affect food and water resources that are critical for livelihoods in SSA. This is especially true for those communities who live in the drylands of Africa and who rely wholly on rain-fed agriculture for their livelihoods.
According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), average temperature in SSA is projected to increase between 1.5 and 3.1°C by 2050. These upward temperature trends are projected to continue beyond 2050. Projections for precipitation trends vary spatially and from one model to another. The exact nature and extent of the impact of climate change on temperature and precipitation distribution pattern remain uncertain and it is the poor and vulnerable who will be the most susceptible to changes in climate (variability or climate change).
The Food, Agriculture and Natural Resource Policy Analysis Network (FANRPAN) in collaboration with the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) on a regional climate change adaptation project titled "Strategies for Adapting to Climate Change in Rural Sub-Saharan Africa: Targeting the Most Vulnerable" which covers southern and eastern Africa. The purpose of the study is to help policymakers and researchers better understand and anticipate the likely impacts of climate change on agriculture and on vulnerable households in southern Africa. This will help provide policymakers and farmers in SSA with tools to identify and implement appropriate adaptation strategies. This report is a summary of results from 10 southern African countries; Angola, Botswana, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, South Africa, Swaziland, Zambia, and Zimbabwe.
The study uses statistical information from various sectors and aspects of the southern African society, economy and natural environment to assess the vulnerability of agriculture to climate change impacts. IFPRI provided an initial set of data, maps and tables on various aspects of vulnerability and descriptive material. The data used includes; four general circulation (GCM) models (CNRM-CM3, CSIRO-MK3, ECHAM5 and MIROC3.3) based on the AB1 scenario; a crop model to assess the impact of climate changes on agricultural production; global modelling supply and demand for food in order to predict food price trends; and stakeholder workshop recommendations. Data from the four GCMs and a decision support system (DSSAT) is used to assess changes in yields of maize, cotton, sorghum and millets due to climate change. The results from the study will be presented according to each given country.
Agriculture venerability to climate change in South Africa
About 81% of the total land area of South Africa is farmed. The most important limiting factor in agricultural production is water availability. Almost 50% of South Africa's surface water is used for agricultural purposes. Among other stressors, climate change is superimposed upon this stressor and is anticipated to exacerbate the issues affecting vulnerable communities. In combination with low adaptive capacity, the South African agriculture sector through the value chain is highly vulnerable to effects of climate change and the associated increase in climate extremes.
Temperatures across South Africa have increased in the historical past, and are projected to increase into the future throughout the 21st century. The warming will be greatest in the interior of the country and less along the coast. Assuming a moderate to high growth in greenhouse gas concentrations, by mid-century the coast is likely to warm by around 1°C and the interior around 3°C. Evaporation is likely to increase due to higher temperatures. This is likely to increase the incidence of drought potential (as defined by the response of available soil moisture and available free water), possibly even if the total rainfall of a region increases.

George Osborne's voice
Is it just me or has it suddenly got deeper? They played a clip of him on the Radio 4 news earlier and it didn't sound like him at all.
He punched Ed Balls
and Ed Balls hit the deck. Balls dropped.
He's had voice coaching lessons to deepen it.
But that was a couple of years ago.
Bit of a mystery then.
Perhaps the state of the world economy has driven him to start smoking 60 a day.
There were serious suggestions that he ought to take up smoking,
in order to lend his voice more gravitas.

NHLA receives Pearl Manor grant funding to continue work for seniors in ManchesterPosted Dec 29, 2017
New Hampshire Legal Assistance has received a Pearl Manor Fund grant, via the Mary & John Elliot Charitable Foundation, for $15,000 to support civil legal aid for socially and economically needy seniors in the Greater Manchester area.
Civil legal aid from NHLA's Senior Law Project (SLP) helps seniors when they face illegal and abusive debt collection, financial exploitation, barriers to health care, housing, public assistance benefits and long-term care facilities. Often, civil legal aid is the only remedy when someone's home, safety or income is threatened.
"SLP Director Cheryl Steinberg and our other advocates routinely represent or advise elderly clients who face eviction from their apartments or foreclosure on their homes because of medical or other debt, or nursing home residents who are being illegally discharged from the facilities they consider home," said Lynne Parker, NHLA Executive Director.
In addition to direct representation, the SLP advocates for policies and laws that benefit large groups of older adults. For example, in 2016, the SLP served as lead agency for the New Hampshire Alliance for Healthy Aging and helped obtain a rate increase for home and community based service providers for older and disabled adults. In the upcoming legislative session, SLP representatives will be advocating to strengthen and enhance our elder financial exploitation statute.
"Support from the Pearl Manor Fund will enable us to maintain our vibrant presence as the one of the strongest voices in New Hampshire for vulnerable seniors," Parker said.
"Through direct representation of individuals, and advocacy to improve the systems that affect people in need, NHLA benefits our entire community. The tangible results of legal aid will help seniors in and around Manchester remain independent and self-sufficient, obtain or preserve affordable housing, and access the health care services they need," said Nicholas Zaharias, Vice President, Development, Mary & John Elliot Charitable Foundation and Elliot Health System.
Founded in 1971, New Hampshire Legal Assistance has been advocating for low-income and elderly people for more than four decades. NHLA created the Senior Law Project (SLP) in 1975, and has been the primary voice for the elderly in New Hampshire's legal and legislative arenas. Each year, NHLA serves approximately 6,500 people who need legal help to protect their basic human needs, including shelter and safety from abuse. NHLA maintains offices in Berlin, Claremont, Concord, Manchester and Portsmouth.
The Pearl Manor Fund was established in 2005 by the Mary & John Elliot Charitable Foundation to provide assistance, comfort, care and treatment for the elderly population of Manchester and surrounding communities including, but not limited to, medical needs, safe housing needs, nutritional needs, independent living assistance and transportation assistance.

SJA sights Insurity's high quality standards as key to the project
Hartford, CT (August 13, 2013) – Insurity, Inc., a provider of core insurance processing software and services, today announced that Sompo Japan Insurance Company of America (SJA) has deployed two complex lines of business with Policy Decisions. Following the announcement in the Fall of 2012 to upgrade and expand the use of Insurity's Insurance Decisions Suite of products, SJA embarked on an eight month Phase One implementation to define, develop and deploy its AAIS Inland Marine and AAIS Commercial Output Policy lines of business.
Commenting on the Insurity implementation, Chuck Fillizola, an executive with SJA, noted, "Meeting our aggressive timeline for these two new lines of business was a critical test of Insurity's product as well as its services.

Next 'Art in the Windows' display will pay tribute to Norwalk Quilt Trail
An artistic prelude to the Norwalk Quilt Trail will take place from 1 to 7 p.m. on April 30 at 136 Washington St. In addition to dining and shopping, visitors to Historic SoNo are invited to create panels for a paper quilt that will be displayed in the windows of the vacant storefront, along with quilted pillows and fabric art. The display in the former Sweet Rexie's space is part of Art in the Windows, a cooperative project by the Norwalk Arts Commission and FD Rich Realtors/TR SoNo Partners.
Lizzy Rockwell, the artistic director of Peace by Piece: The Norwalk Community Quilt Project, will coordinate the paper quilt workshop, which is free and open to people of all ages (children younger than 10 must be accompanied by an adult). Peace by Piece is an intergenerational after-school arts program that is supported by the Norwalk Children's Foundation. For information, call 203-846-0525.
The Norwalk Quilt Trail, which opens May 14 and 15, will spotlight displays of beautifully crafted quilts made and collected in Norwalk. Norwalk's six museums and other public sites throughout the city will host an in-depth look at the quilting tradition in this area. Quilt Trail participants include the Norwalk and Rowayton Historical Societies (the lead partners), Norwalk Museum, Lockwood-Mathews Mansion Museum, Norwalk Seaport Association's Sheffield Island Lighthouse, Stepping Stones Museum for Children and Switch Tower Museum. Additionally, panels from the National AIDS Memorial Quilt will be shown at City Hall and local libraries will offer quilt-related displays and workshops.
The Paper Quilt Workshop is one of the first public events planned at sites throughout the city to augment the NQT exhibits. These include lectures by quilt scholars, workshops and opportunities for residents to display their personal quilts. One of the project highlights will be a Norwalk Has Heart quilt designed by Rockwell and created by residents from throughout the community during Peace by Piece quilting bees. It will be dedicated at the conclusion of the NQT in mid-November.
"Peace by Piece welcomes people of all ages to express their creativity during this fun activity," Rockwell said. "No experience is necessary and we will provide all the materials. This is a wonderful opportunity for families and friends to help make something together."

The megachip has a wire which needs connecting to either the 68000 CPU socket or pin 36 on the Gary Chip. If you experience spurious lockups when the Megachip is installed, then you may need to attach the wire to the 68000 instead of the Gary chip, although to which pin it should be attached is unknown. Furthermore the Megachip may still function correctly in a damaged Agnus socket, even if the original Agnus doesn't because it has longer legs which make good contact with the socket.

Bertie Acheson murder: man arrested in Belfast area
Detectives investigating the murder of Coleraine pensioner Bertie Acheson have arrested a 39-year-old man in the greater Belfast area.
Mr Acheson, 72, was assaulted after he confronted an intruder in his Glenmore Gardens home on 30 April.
He suffered a heart attack during the burglary which detectives said was brought on by stress.
Police have taken the arrested man to Antrim police station for questioning.
They are also searching a property in Antrim.
Mr Acheson and his wife Sheila were in bed asleep when they were awoken by the sound of breaking glass at about 01:30 BST on 30 April.
Mr Acheson got out of bed and went into the kitchen where he was confronted by a male intruder who demanded money.
There was an altercation and a struggle which resulted in Mr Acheson falling to the floor.
The burglar then went into the bedroom where he threatened Mrs Acheson, who is 70 and suffers from arthritis, before taking her purse and escaping with £375.
Mrs Acheson raised the alarm, but by the time ambulance personnel and police arrived, her husband was dead.

Forgive the face...I had just come from the dentist, who pratically had her foot in my chest. Just kidding...somewhat. This is 5 or 6 day hair that had just endured 2 hours of smooshing and squirming from the dental chair.
I wore a flower in my hair to work that day (yesterday) and got stopped by 4 different people, who were happy to see my flowers re-emerge for the spring. I guess that I get "some kind of way" during the winter and lose interest in dresses, heels, flowers, and almost all things girly. I have been wearing jeans and my "comfortably ugly" shoes (despite my close coworker's opposition) consistently for the past few weeks.
While working on a project in the training room with my team, a young man walked in. I have seen him before at 2 other meetings, but all I knew of him was that he was a new hire and quite an expensive one since he's leading a project that is providing my company's bread and butter for the next 2 years. He sat down behind me for a few and briefly chatted with a team member of mine. I overheard him offering too much information when asked about food or cooking or something close to that. His response included rambling on about losing his appetite after his ex called him the night before. I'm positive that he and my team member are not THAT close. I left to get a cup of water and to chuckle to myself away from him. When I came back and sat down, he leaned in and said, "I really like your flower." I thanked him for the compliment. Then he said, "You know, you have such beautiful hair" and proceeded to gaze at me for an uncomfortable amount of time. I thanked him again and wondered to myself...is he flirting with me? Can't be possible since I was wearing my "comfortably ugly" shoes, right?
But maybe my hair was still thriving off of my deep conditioning macgyver mission from the weekend before. It had been 2 weeks since my last wash and my hair was in NEED. Unfortunately, I did not have my fave conditioner on deck nor did I have my Shea Moisture Deep Condtioner. I winged it with some Herbal Essence Hello Hydration. My hair didn't seem to care for it, which is weird. But I didn't shed a lot of hair during my detangling session, which was weird as well.
At any rate, I needed to come up with a deep treatment, so I got a bowl and started searching my kitchen for some ingredients. I grabbed some leftover yogurt, a container of banana baby food that I previously used for a homemade deep conditoner, and some coconut mik. I then went upstairs while stirring and figured that I should throw in everything including the bathroom sink. In went the coconut oil...and then the castor oil...and finally, some Trader Joe's Nourish Spa conditioner.
I washed my hair and then slathered on this mixture while in the shower. I covered with a plastic cap and went to sleep. Yep, you guessed it. I was sexy and sure that any man would approve of this being the way that EVERY woman should come to bed.
The next morning, I rinsed with cool water and prepared to style into a twist out. My hair was shiny and soft and it appeared that the frizz that I usually suffer from at the canopy of my hair had been tamed. Problem is, I don't know which ingredient did it. My hair was almost TOO defined on Monday. Which is ok, but I like my hair to be slightly poofy. By Wednesday, I had finally hit the sweet spot.
So right now, I'm letting the same mixture marinate under my plastic cap, replacing the Trader Joe's with some amla powder that I had in my stash. At the beginning of my hair challenge I used amla and brahmi every week, but it seemed to be very drying after a while. I figured that this may be the safe way to use amla and see if it makes a difference. I trimmed my hair today and am pampering my strands with this treatment, as a way of apologizing for those nights that I slept without my bonnet, for every day that I have refused to wear a protective style, and for those lunch hours that I spent out in the sun while power-walking and sweating to the oldies. We'll see if my hair will accept this mission or if the message will self-destruct.
I was browsing through my hair pics on my comp and found this one from this time last year. What a difference a year makes. I remember thinking that my hair is taking it's sweet time to grow back.

After a good night's sleep, a few cups of coffee and an adequate amount of sugar, you're ready to tackle a new project. Unfortunately, after staring at the computer for an hour, you have no new ideas. You don't even have any old ideas, for that matter.
There are days when a blank screen is equivalent to a torture device for creative professionals. Fortunately, there are many tactics you can employ to maximize your creativity.
Try something new. If you have a creative block, take a break. Put the project aside and do something else you enjoy such as jogging or reading a book. A change of pace often provides a fresh perspective. One art director, for example, heads to a nearby driving range to hit some golf balls. Upon return to work, she finds herself re-energized.
Early to bed, early to rise. In a survey of top advertising executives by The Creative Group, two-thirds of respondents reported that they were most creative in the early hours. It may be especially difficult to greet the dawn when you're in a slump, but an early start ultimately can help you conquer it. If, however, you're not a morning person and never will be, schedule your most demanding work for times of peak creativity.
Get some clarity. If your creative block centers on a particular project, you could be unclear on what's required. Review your notes on the piece, or contact the client directly to discuss his or her objectives and expectations. A more detailed explanation of what's desired may provide just the nugget of information you need to trigger ideas.
Choose another angle. Sometimes a creative block can stem from an unworkable concept. In this event, consider approaching the project from a completely different perspective. For example, if you're designing a company Web site and the overall look and feel of it just isn't working, consider the project in a whole new light. Is there a possibility for a humorous approach? Can you build on the existing site and infuse some more excitement there? Explore others ideas, then pick one and run with it.
Seek inspiration. Nearly everyone has a certain setting in which they're most inspired. These places are fairly unique to the individual and can range from a museum to a secluded beach to a local art gallery. Try to seek out an environment that is meaningful to you and spend time relaxing there. Often, the right atmosphere is all you need.
Once you've broken through your barrier to creativity, take time to consider its cause. If you think stress is the cause of your block, it may be time for a vacation or a change of pace. Perhaps you need a new project to challenge you. Whatever the cause, by taking a break, you'll give yourself a chance to regroup and be back in business in no time.

More research that shows the continuing adoption of SVOD services in the United States: 69% of all U.S. households now are subscribing to at least one over-the-top video service, up from just 52% in 2015. And, the survey counts just Netflix, Amazon Prime or Hulu, just more than 1% of the roughly 220 SVOD services available to U.S. consumers.
Could second quarter pay-TV subscriber losses in the United States top 1 million, the highest figure ever? In a word, yes.
The second quarter routinely is a weak one for operators and in the current environment – remember the first quarter saw more than 800,000 subscribers cut the cord, according to Kagan – reaching one million may be an easy task.
Has cord cutting finally run its course among U.S. operators who have, over the past five years, watched millions of subscribers walk away from traditional pay-TV delivery? Are Millennials – and their following generation, Gen Edge – ready to join Gen X and Baby Boomers in tying themselves to arcane and expensive contracts that deliver bloated tiers of content that they have little interest in watching, let alone paying for?
OTT video viewers may be just about as fickle as traditional TV viewers, with roughly 19% churning some of their SVOD services during the past 12 months, which is down from 20% a year ago, according to a new report.
Could this be the start of the Great Cable Channel Recession? Maybe. Esquire Network, the joint venture between NBCUniversal and Hearst that began in 2013, today announced that it's going to the promised land – OTT – later this year.
The channel was the victim of the continued erosion of the pay-TV audience, especially male Millennials, the Esquire Network's primary audience.
Viewing time of live TV continued to decline in Q3, albeit by only a minute in from a year ago, as viewers increasingly tune in to time-shifted TV and online video.
Nielsen said live TV viewing per day slipped to four hours and six minutes in the third quarter, a minute less than in Q3 2015, and a much smaller decrease than the six-minute drop between Q3 2014 and Q3 2015.
The extra minute went to DVR viewing, which increased to 29 minutes from 28 minutes.
Growing consumer spending power and affordable multiplay service bundle are fueling the adoption of prepaid satellite pay-TV services (DTH) in Latin America, especially among consumers who previously were not able to afford service offerings.
That new class of subscribers, in turn, is influencing operators to invest in expanded networks, especially fiber-to the-home (FTTH).
New research says worldwide set-top box shipments will increase slightly this year to 273 million from 269 million in 2015.
In addition to the growth of satellite units, cable shipments are also expected to increase modestly. DTT and IP STB demand remains relatively flat, according to researcher SNL Kagan in its annual look at the STB market.
Pay-TV service penetration in Latin America and the Caribbean has reached 57%, according to a new report, with Argentina having more than 87% or its TV homes subscribed to a service, the most in the region.
The report, from the Organización de Telecomunicaciones de Iberoamérica (OTI), found that Puerto Rico has the next highest pay-TV penetration in the region (68%), followed by Uruguay (61%), Mexico (57%) and Costa Rica (54%).
Revenues for the Mexican pay-TV industry were up nearly 23% year-over-year in Q3, increasing to $953 million. Much of that growth is attributable to continued subscriber growth in the country as operators bundle services to decrease churn and increase customer loyalty.
But pay-TV operators are also rolling out inexpensive content packages and, perhaps more importantly, making it easy to access video-on-demand services and OTT.
Pay-TV subscription declines continued at a record pace, with the industry losing an estimated 430,000 subscribers in the third quarter, bring the loss for the first 9 months of the year to 1.3 million, the most ever for the first nine months of the year.
Research firm SNL Kagan said the Q3 loss was higher than a year ago, with the telco segment hit the hardest, fueled by AT&T's continued move to satellite delivery via DirecTV from its legacy U-verse IPTV product.
A new report says that more than four-in-10 pay-TV subscribers say they'll either cut the cord or shave their pay-TV bill by reducing services in the next year, a number that would be downright apocalyptic for the industry.

If you are hosting an event this Labor Day, it's time to pull out the stars and stripes and get to planning a fantastic event. The décor itself needs to sing the tune of the celebration. Labor Day is a day meant to thank those who work hard the rest of the year. This year, make it special by actually decorating the space in a patriotic, fun-loving theme.
Outdoor Options
Sometimes, the outdoors is where the party is happening because of the common BBQ theme. However, you can make this special with a few decorative pieces.
- Select a fabric in the red, white, and blue tone for your tablecloths.
- Invest in a flag-themed drape hanging from the doorway that people will enter and exit. This will keep the insects out while offering a stylish piece of décor.
- Layer the colors instead of just focusing on items that are striped. For example, your plates may be white while your tablecloth is blue and the napkins red.
What About Indoors?
For the indoor celebration, take down those curtains and put up something that is more patriotic themed, perhaps some soft pastel colors of blue and red. Let a white sheer drape hang in the center. Be sure to have plenty of small things that make a big difference:
- Sand pails in red filled with some sand and a blue candle can make a nice centerpiece.
- Add a few flowers in the right colors to each table setting.
- Set up the space with a white theme then add pops of blue and red in the décor.
It is easy to get patriotic and fun with this theme. To make it count, though, you will need to think about the total layout and design. Do not just focus on the area where you will be eating. Rather, add a new shower curtain in an appropriate themed design or throw a blanket or a piece of cloth with the color scheme onto the couch for flare and even more style.
Have fun with this theme. Labor Day is a time to celebrate a day off work. Put a bit of time into this design and it will pay off.
