If you one of these people who have been on Twitter spouting off
"Transformers 2 waz teh awesomeest" then this isn't for you as you don't care about quality in your cinema anyway.

There was no excuse for the movie to be this bad. The story was absolutely terrible, the was little to no character development, and the whole thing was overly long. The writing was aimed at the lowest common denominator and the effects, while very good in some instances, were so poorly framed that you couldn't identify what you were looking at. For 300 million dollars you think that a studio or Steven Spielberg would have looked this thing over before it released, and if they did the shame on them for such a horribly constructed piece of crap. I know it's making tons of bank right now and really that just shows truly how low the standards of the viewing audience are these days.Bryanhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-749739348709382395.post-80983730287268129752009-05-24T14:54:00.000-07:002009-05-24T15:01:31.185-07:00Lovely grilling weather.

You know, Sunday would be a great day to grill out for the holiday right? Sunshine, warm breeze, mouth-watering aromas wafting up from the grill it'll be wondiferous! Of course that's crazy talk! We have to have rain, not just a little rain, I'm talking flooding the road lose all satellite reception rain. It's a conspiracy against the gods of grilling, I swear it is.Bryanhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-749739348709382395.post-10363577913939893512009-05-24T14:45:00.000-07:002009-05-24T14:53:55.763-07:00Bryanhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-749739348709382395.post-36056422234500379462009-05-23T00:46:00.000-07:002009-05-23T00:57:14.198-07:00Dom at the park

Maybe get out after that and take some photos around town, just really unwind. The boy got to go to his grandparents so that meant I could probably even do a little painting on my miniatures or play a non-kid friendly videogame or hell, read a book in peace. I drag my butt out of bed, make my way to the living room window throw open the curtains and...SNOW! F@CKING SNOW! Again. You could have sworn that someone was belting out the black speech of Mordor in my apartment such was the resulting deluge of profanity. I have slipped into a drinkin funk since then. My whole day dashed on the rocks. Yes it's silly, I know I could have just got on with the day but it's the principal of the thing. It seems that every time I try to plan something of late has complete fallen through. I'd plan a vacation but it would probably just fall apart too. Yeah I'm being pathetic. Bugger off if you don't like it.

Got a nice new digital SLR a week ago. I finally have access to the features I miss so much from my Yashicas, namely actual control of the image your taking. Point and shoot digi's are fun for taking web pics for your social network sites but I have craved a little more functionality from my soul-stealer. Now I got it, and boy is it fun. It's a Nikon D60, seems on the low end of digital SLRs but it suits me just fine.

Now I gotta go, Peter Gabriel dvd's to watch and all...

Quite the ice storm this year, there was close to 100,000 without power the first 24 hours but the power companies involved busted a hump to get things set right. There are still many areas without power for now, this being the third day in, but the ice has melted for the most part. There were countless trees and limbs down all over town and the surrounding areas. The current estimate from Craighead electric was around 2000 electric poles down this time, the last time was close to 1500 and it took over a week to get power back to some areas so that should give you some idea what we're dealing with here. Sadly there have been 2 fatalities resulting from this, one in Trumann where the town sheriff was hit by a falling tree while he was removing a fallen limb obstructing the street. The other was an elderly man who suffered the same while removing debris from his yard. I'm surprised that the death toll hasn't been higher but am thankful it's not. Not really a lot of traffic accidents either for a change, usually a little snow and ice falls around here and people go spastic and completely forget how to drive. We got lucky this go around, this could have been much worse.Bryanhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-749739348709382395.post-34993073978866384992009-01-23T04:32:00.000-08:002009-01-23T04:46:35.301-08:00My "Coolest kid in the world"
Every parent feels that their child is the most amazing, wonderful creature on the face of this planet. At least the parents who don't need to be shot do anyway. I have to say that I'm jealous of his manly facial hair. I am however concerned with his growing disdain for the British Parliament. His going on about gun powder and plots and what-not is unsettling sometimes.Bryanhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-749739348709382395.post-63355913427324872362009-01-23T04:21:00.000-08:002009-01-23T04:32:12.417-08:00This says a lot about my family.
I don't know what the hell this is. It stands outside my grandmother's house in the front yard for all the world to see. I have no idea what it means, if it has any kind of religious meaning, or if it is in fact an earmark of some genetic insanity that has indeed been passed on to me. Those of you who know me best may gain some insight into the weirdness that is my family.Bryanhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-749739348709382395.post-68222281198046684132009-01-22T01:09:00.000-08:002009-01-22T03:07:52.860-08:00My one election blog.Since it seems to be so popular, I too will write about this momentous occasion. Am I all gushy about America's first black president? No. Should I be? Possibly. I admit that it is,"shudder", historical in scope. Then again isn't every election, for ill or good? I have heard so many media heads yammering on with stars in their eyes about how much this is going to change America for the better I could just about puke blood. I seriously doubt this is going to change any racist's outlook on life, and that goes for racists on both sides of the equation. I could say that the situation in the country is beyond comprehension but it's not. It's simple human nature. We've taken a good step to equalizing things but I don't see any significant change coming over night like all the talking heads keep acting like is going to happen. America's race problems won't be going away, the poor will be poor, the scumbags of the world will still hate us, business as usual.

My God, am I really this cynical these days?Bryanhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-749739348709382395.post-81602014239735650732009-01-15T03:59:00.000-08:002009-01-15T04:09:03.073-08:00Why are all my good thoughts gone by the time I'm here?I never fails, I come up with some outstanding thing that will illuminate your souls and I shove it to the back with all the other stuff until I get on here and when the time comes I got nothing. One day I know I'm gonna be on here and that cure for cancer and the five step process to bring about peace in the middle east will just spill out in one long painful literary birth. Behold mystery of mysteries! A shining son is born to ease the troubles of man!

Probably not, I get about as far as "you know, Joel's jumpsuit in season 3 of MST3K just look so much more believable than the KTMA days one did." and all hope for humanity is lost. Write it down you say? Never! It all comes out so much more amusing this way, besides a good dose of laughter really would be a better first step than any other plan I could come up with.Bryanhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-749739348709382395.post-53840614169219686832008-12-27T18:04:00.000-08:002008-12-27T18:49:51.233-08:00"You don't know what your missing...If you aren't in the kitchen!"

That's the closing tagline at the end puppet segments of Cartoon Network's show "Chowder" created by the talented C. H. Greenblatt. He's worked on both SpongeBob Squarepants and The Grim Adv. of Billy and Mandy as a storyboard artist as well as the voice of Fred Fredburger on Grim Adv. Chowder is one of those rare shows that works on a level that can be enjoyed by adults and kids. The story centers on an expert chef named Mung Daal and his young apprentice Chowder. All the characters have food themed names and the episodes usually involve a decidedly bizarre recipe being created to advance the plot. Don't like food? Well don't let that stop you, the show's style is refreshingly original, hip, and visually rich. It can get a little gross at times but don't fear (it's no Ren & Stimpy of Bevis and Butthead) it's all in the quirky spirit of fun. The writing is equally well done and there is a wonderful blend of innocence and weirdness in every episode that elevates the comedy to a higher level. It's one of my favorite animations to come out in a long time and my son loves it as well. You should check it out if your able, the show's first DVD just came out recently and I was able to pick it up for $9.99. Plus you can find it on Cartoon Network on Sundays.

 Yes, quail. Chicken junior. Mini fowl. Tiny bird. A welcome suprise at the early Christmas lunch at my grandmother's house today. Deep fried awesomeness. You can't pick this up at the grocery store.

My poor little boy woke up crying for me and a mad sprint for the bathroom ensued. The launch wasn't all that spectacular but my son has the most unfortunate habit of what I like to call "Full barrel vomiting". Meaning it comes out his mouth AND nose, with gusto I might add. The majority of the time spent was just trying to get his nose cleared. It seems that when you mix pink lemonaide kool-aid with fish sticks (not my decision mind you) you end up with a volatile result. He's was so pitiful sitting there shaking and trying not freak out about his stopped up nose. He hates getting nasty stuff on him and I know it was killing him to have the vomit inside his nose, especially with it smelling as bad as it did.

As I was typing this there was a second act to his performance and we got into his room in time to catch the end of it. He handled this bout better than the first, I think he was more awake, he was a bit more chipper about the whole thing. Hopefully he's done, being on vomit watch makes for a rather arduous sleep schedule...

Yes I have a facebook and a myspace but somehow I really don't count those since I haven't all that much to say on them and quite frankly find them kind of tedious these days. Also, I really can't see anyone being interested in what I have to say anyway. If you are then I thank you and I hope I continue to keep you coming back.

Now, who wants fudge?

Two Friends with Down Syndrome Kickstarter: This is beyond awesome! Try not to fall in love with these kids, I dare you! The best part is what you're gifted when you pledge.
Our Mommy Problem. This article was posted by another blog I follow and felt the urge to comment. Part of me wanted to be bitter and say, "at least people recognize you as a mom!" but I knew that wasn't fair or productive. I was compelled to comment, though and so I wrote something else. I'd be curious what some of you moms think- those with living children and those without. Here's my comment: "think this article was well written- I appreciated how it seemed to tackle an issue that many women face (how to integrate the mom identity into her other identities and not let it take over) without being whiny (I have no patience for whiny). To throw another perspective in the boat- I adore being addressed as mom. It is a part of my identity that people don't see because i don't have a living child to prove it. But being called "mom" or better yet "Mabel's mom" is like Christmas to me. And I know of many people who would do anything for that title but life circumstance hasn't given them the chance. I comment not in any way to say that women shouldn't complain about being called mom by certain people- the comment in the bar about mommies night out irked me too!- but I wouldn't want people to stop using the term either- I'm sure the woman with a child after years of infertility might still glow at even an insensitive use of the term. I think this article has made me more mindful of how I use the moniker mom."
Who Has it Worse? This hit home hard for me. No one has said it out loud so much, but I often feel like people think it's easier to know ahead of time. This article does a good job of saying it's not. It's not easier to know and it's not easier to not know. Both are hard. Both suck.
Have you read anything that has really hit home this week? Any thoughts on these articles?

I've made these three times the past week. They were much tastier to the kiddos when I used a Texas 10-15 Sweet Onion. I doubled the recipie and froze little patties on cookie sheets covered waxed paper. After they were frozen, I put them in a freezer bag. I have tried so many different versions, but this one was different because the chickpeas were only soaked and not cooked and no flour or bulgar wheat. We generally can't keep yogurt in the fridge for more than a day or two before it disappears. The kids really like them with sour cream. I mixed sour cream, a splash of apple cider vinegar, tahini and a little garlic powder and they really liked it.
2 cups chickpeas (soaked overnight) {about 1/2 pound}
1 medium onion chopped
5-6 cloves garlic
1tablespoon cumin
1teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
Grind the chickpeas in a food processor until they resemble crumbs. Transfer to a bowl, grind the onions, garlic, cumin, baking soda and salt until well chopped but not pureed. Add to the chickpeas, stir well. Form into small patties and carefully slide them into a cast iron skillet with about 1/2 inch of very hot oil. These are fragile, but once they hit the oil, they stick together really well, fry until medium brown on one side, carefully turn them over until they are evenly brown. Cool on paper towels. This makes about 10-12 patties.
We eat these wrapped in romain lettuce leaves instead of pita bread. Yum!

Hello again !
Within the last post I told you about my work at TH06 sensor and that the patch was sent for review at the IIO maintainers. Well, the review came and I found out that there already was a driver in Linux Kernel that was pretty similar to mine and that could be adjusted to support TH06 too. I am talking about drivers/iio/humidity/si7020.c, the driver for Si7020 humidity and temperature sensor from Silicon Labs. Although the sensors have different manufacturers, they have the same register set and they implement the same command interface (check out the datasheets: TH06 and SI7020).
So the next challenge was to create the connection between this driver and TH06 sensor. As I said previously, the logical link between the physical device and the driver is done by a name identification so I extended the id table of the driver with the id of TH06 [patch].
Similarly, Hoperf TH02 sensor has an identical communication interface with Silicon Labs SI7005 so I extended already existing drivers/iio/humidity/si7005.c driver with the TH02 id [patch]
You know how they say: That's one small step for me and one giant leap for mankind ! 😉

He found household name status as a hard-partying twenty-something on MTV's Jersey Shore, but the very lifestyle that made Mike 'The Situation' Sorrentino famous eventually "practically destroyed" his life. The reality star, who will next be seen on Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars' Family Edition, exclusively reveals to PEOPLE in this week's issue that he's been "100 percent" sober for the last 18 months after checking into rehab for the second time to address a years-long battle with prescription medication abuse. Mike Sorrentino's most recent "descent into drug addiction" began in 2014. After a 60-day stint in rehab in 2012, he'd been sober for nearly two years when he was hit with charges that he tried to cheat the government out of taxes owed on more than $8 million in income. Famous for coining the phrase "GTL (Gym, Tan, Laundry)," Sorrentino had been using workouts as one means of coping with the stress in his life, but in June 2015, he sustained cracked ribs at the gym. His doctor prescribed painkillers (his "drug of choice" over alcohol), triggering his addiction to resurface. "From there it was just a spiral," he says. Sorrentino soon grew distant from family and his college sweetheart, Lauren Pesce. "Your emotions are blocked. So you really ruin relationships with everyone in your life." After appearing on Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars with Pesce in 2015, Sorrentino sought to fix his issues with older brothers Frank Jr., 40, and Marc, 36 on WE tv's upcoming 'Family Edition.' The season will see the Sorrentino's contending with the fallout of Mike's drug abuse and, to a degree, the consequences of Mike and Marc's ongoing tax evasion court case. (Both brothers face criminal charges including allegedly filing false tax returns, conspiracy to defraud the U.S. government and tax evasion (they have pled not guilty on all accounts and expect to go to trial next year.) Balancing strained family relationships and the possibility of jail time has certainly weighed on Sorrentino, the 34-year-old admits, but he is leaning on the support of Pesce, communicating more with his brothers after Boot Camp and attending addiction support group meetings three times a week. "It's my life, and I have to take care of it," he says of staying clean in coming years. "If I'm not healthy mentally and physically, I'm not going to make it.

Splash and Bubbles
The Sea Sparkles/Tyke and Seek
While camping, Splash and Bubbles admire all of the beautiful sparkles in the sky. The kids soon think that those sparkles may have fallen from the sky into the sea when they see a brand new light show in Reeftown. / Splash, Bubbles, Dunk and Ripple play a big game of hide and seek with Tyke, the Pacific harbor seal in the Kelp Forest. When they temporarily can't find Tyke, they are relieved to learn that even though she's quite independent and curious, she won't wander far from her home.

A first I never wanted to watch this, then curiousity got the better of me....
Initial impression was one of disgust. Why would somebody film this? Then as it went on, the actions of the young lady dissolves all emotions of sympathy that her daggering affair in the street (all be at carnival) has now been witnessed by the drones in their thousands via the internet.
I have to wonder what exactly the young lady was wearing? Or thought she was wearing and why does she have a wet top? But the way she keeps going back for more.... No offense to the obese, but is this the first time this chick has had a male body close to her? Is this the highlight of her weekend and one to go and brag about to the friends and enemies alike?
The male in question has a few things to answer for himself, but men always get thrown the easy way out in the utter that "Men are men, that's what they do...." but the end of this video (2.25min onwards) shows that as a female, it is very easy to put yourself on a plate and get rejected. In her case leaving all self-respect behind while scrambling around like a beatle on his back, with her lower regions on show to the public. Only thing left after all that showing off and prancing around is the walk of shame..... Unless a video of it all ends up on the net of course!!
NB: I wonder what it was about the chick's underneath that made him back away so quickly???

Not that I needed to be told this--my dating record bears it out--but my god. As if the last week hasn't been depressing enough:
The Truth About Men in D.C. Is a Tough Pill to Swallow •
Guys, rejoice: Washington is the No. 1 place to find "babes." So claims Men's Health magazine, which ranks America's sexiest cities in its November issue. This city boasts "the highest percentage of young, single, college-educated women," according to the editors' analysis of U.S. Census info.
But while the mag christens us the "Dating Capital," there's very bad news for those ladies: Washington ranked No. 2 among 101 cities in erectile-function diagnoses and "the number of Cialis, Levitra and Viagra prescriptions dispensed per capita," Men's Health reports. Washington also ranked second in doctor visits for male-pattern baldness and sales of Rogaine.
But hold on! Whatever their other deficiencies, the men here stay in good physical shape. They score high for "best abs" and low for body mass index. "It may be the home of pork-barrel politics," the mag says, "but D.C.'s male population is far from porcine."
Hmm. Have those editors frequented any lobbyist-heavy steakhouses lately?

Hope you have a wonderful and safe journey. We will think of you often.
You have so much to experience and every day you will learn something new.
Don't you have a little raft or dingy to take the dogs to shore so you can anchor out further? The currents and tides will get worse as you go.

"I play gospel at my church, and I would choose a Steinway over another model if I had the choice," said Orianus. He has been performing since he was a child and sings tenor and bass.
James Story is the chair of the Visual and Performing Arts Department at Vol State, and was very excited as he played a few jazz pieces. "Steinways feel as if you are playing on water. They have a better orchestral quality and smoothness. They also have a very good sound for studio playing," said Story.
The Steinways replace pianos that have been at the college for years, some since the school opened in 1971.
"I am very excited about getting Steinways. Usually community colleges end up with a crappy Casio," said Brandon Millichamp. Brandon and tenor V.J. Cieselski were among the students singing along with the piano. "I have always been a big fan of Steinways. They are fun to play because of the reaction of the keys. I have never had a bad experience with a Steinway," said Cieselski.
"Mr. Story told us last week that we would be getting Steinways and everyone in class started screaming," said Orianus.
Bill Metcalfe is the president of the Steinway Piano Gallery of Nashville. "Steinway builds their pianos to a musical standard of excellence, to perform better, and last longer. 1400 artists who travel the world have said that, and over one hundred schools have chosen to buy Steinways," said Metcalfe.

"There are estimated to be a hundred thousand people living with lymphoedema in the UK. And the number is growing as more and more people survive cancer for longer but without a lymphatic system - which leaves them vulnerable to painful swelling and serious infection."
There is very little treatment for lymphoedema available on the NHS. - I myself am paying for lymphatic drainage massage once a week at the moment. Recommended therapies are exercise, manual lymph drainage and compression therapy. I found a private lymphoedema therapist in my area by searching on the internet.

Ok the ouside chores have to get done but with a nice warm weekend behind me why did I wait until it is 42 out with a 25mph stiff North wind? The second part of my chore list is going to be quite painful!
The sun is up and it is beautiful. MY NEW BED IS BEING DELIVERED TODAY. I will post pics as soon as it gets here. I don't have a mattress yet but that will be after the 30th.
I am drinking coffee and my warm kitty is draped across my shoulder. I can hear rush hour traffic in the distance and am very grateful that I am not in it.
Well I guess I better get out some gloves and go plant garlic!

Government cannot escape responsibility for riots
Pak Agung, the people DO understand the case and the government's mishandling of the case from the beginning right up to the execution has led to the response we have seen in East Nusa Tenggara. If the case had been tried properly and ALL EVIDENCE, no matter how embarrassing to local police, local Poso prosecutors and local Central Sulawesi politicians, was admitted, no one was intimidated and threatened with death by violent mobs of radical Muslims during trial as police smiled and looked on, and the verdict was still guilty, then maybe they could accept it without a violent reaction. Until Indonesia learns to conduct trials based on all evidence presented, does not allow intimidation by outside forces, bribery and corruption of officials and judges, and allows due process to take place in a fair system for all, regardless of religion or ethnicity, then the people of this country will never know what true justice is. We look at the case of three Christian Sunday school teachers being jailed 3 years for religious conversion when the children had the parent's permission to be in the program and had not converted. What kind of justice is that? Violent pressure from radical Islamists on the lawyers, judges, the defendants and the police at the courthouse forced an illogical and unjust verdict. The Indonesian government cannot permit outside influence of this nature and it is these people terrorizing trials that need to be jailed and made examples of. This is why Christians are angry. It appears that Muslims are able to influence the outcome of trials of Christians and that there is no justice for Christians. The longer it is left undealt with by the government, the closer we will come to renewed conflicts. The question is, is THIS what the government wants?

text: Every day that I wake up, I have a battle with myself. Wouldn't it be okay if I just missed this one day of working out? What difference would it make? Those are not good thoughts – especially since I've gone so many days in a row, now. Why would I want to jeopardize the good that I've been seeing? Of course, I know why. My brain doesn't want to change, my body got really comfortable being overweight and out of shape. It's easier to stay on the same path, and change is hard. Seeing as how staying on the chosen path can be difficult for many people, myself included, I thought that I could share some quotes on determination, motivation, and positivity today. Enjoy!


text:
The year is 1782 in Paris, under the reign of Louis the 16th. The commissaire Le Floch is in charge of ensuring a Russian prince's security during his incognito stay in the French capital. It's no mean feast because he's no other than the son of Empress Catherine II, and everybody in town kind of knows who he is. Le Floch's mission is freight with difficulties as spies of different allegiances abound and the mission itself can't be official.
The court's shenanigans are only one of Le Floch's concerns among many. He looks as if he's close to burn out, missing his son and his mistress(es?), exhausted by his job and his master's schemes. On top of everything, another Russian nobleman gets murdered and suspicious circumstances abound. There are so many possible leads and uncertainties that i couldn't help but commiserate with poor Le Floch.
As a reader i was almost as overwhelmed as he was, and i think there are materials enough in that book for two or more stories, so why cram everything so fast? More than once does Le Floch mention a desire to retire to the countryside, so much so that i wondered if it was the character's wish or the writer's.
Another troubling factor is the chosen period: 1782 feels ever so close to 1789, and many people in the book are disillusioned with the monarchy, fed up with the state of disarray and corruption the society is in. Things are going downhill from the golden years of the previous king that were presented to us with the few first Le Floch books, starting in 1761 as Le Floch was 21 (The Russian investigation is the 10th book in the series!). What a difference two decades do for a man and a country!
The plot is convoluted indeed, but it never ceased to interest me, as did all the historical details cleverly inserted here and there (geopolitical context! food of the time! craftsmen technique! etiquette at the Royal palace!). Even if this one book seemed to run out of steam in the middle (under the weight of its own complexity), the characters are so endearing that I certainly want to know what happens next, especially with the French Revolution looming ahead.

Julie & Julia L.A. "Special Screening"
I have been trying to get a screening ticket to this movie (Julia Child and Le Cordon Bleu late 40's) for the past weeks. This weekend I sent a request with photos of my 1975 Le Cordon Bleu Grand Diplome and me to the New York Le Cordon Bleu headquarters. This morning a lady named Margaret Warren, from LCB marketing/sales sent me an email of no tickets available.
So I called and thanked her for responding. We got to talking, I dropped a couple names, "Food Network", New York Times" and my dear friend, Robyn Cahill (who helped write the LCB cookbook in early 90's) and we said good-bye.
Surprise, Surprise! At 3:00pm Margaret called, she got me a ticket!!! I went and enjoyed the experience. Don't want to say too much until it's released August 7th. However, I was pleasantly delighted & suggest a rendez-vous to see Julie & Julia when it opens.

Referencing checkboxes in datagrid
Feb 22, 2008 3:32 AM
I'm looking to change the value of a checkbox within a DataGrid based on whether the item is selected or not. I don't however want to add a selected field to the data as this is metadata rather than data itself.
Can anyone advise me on how to reference the checkbox to control and read its value based on row or item, without attaching a data provider.
This content has been marked as final.

"...read its value based on row or item..." No, you cannot do that because item renderers are recycled. Only the visible rows in the list/dg even exist.
All item renderers MUST be data driven. If you do not want a "selected" property in your underlying data, you could use the raw data to build a special run-time arrayCollection of custom objects, with the custom object class containing the "selected" property. When you save the modified data, you strip out that property.
Another possibility would be to have some structure (like associative array or dictionary) external to the GG, but accesible to the renderers, that stores the value of the checkbox selected property using a key. In the renderer, in the set data() override, use the key in the current item to retrieve and store the checkbox state value. then in commitProperties, set the checkbox selected property to the stored value.

Ultimate Sweetness
OK, so today's "headline" is taken from another very fun 'blog' (I started visiting the site regularly before I ever heard the word 'blog'). You should check it out here.
Not much to say today other than my sleep patterns are all over the shop (like 2-3 hour naps all the time, very odd), and that no, I have not bought a new sofa. Merely a new throw, which is actually a thin double duvet (30 notes from a shop nearby).
Me and Lil had a nice morning playing around at mine, then after a bit of grumbling while I got her into the new cardigan we were off in the uber-high-tech-baby-harness-frontpack-backpack that I've never used but turned out to be as comfy as claimed, and nowhere near as painful as the sling which goes over only one shoulder. Only problem was getting her out....I needed R to help as it is so safe. Lil had a kip after a visit to the farm, so I nipped to Tesco & Mothercare (my god this is boring isn't it?) bought a few things for "us" (OK a paint roller and a hat for me, a couple of books for Lil...one about cats, one about dogs).
Hmmm. Seems I had more to say than I thought. But not much.
Check out thys linke, this link and this link!

The International Forum on Cyber Security will be held on 28 & 29 January in Lille. AGS AGS will be a partner for the event. This is an opportunity to meet with General Watin-Augouard , which organizes the event.
1 / Sir, FIC 2013 is the fifth name. However, it is not exactly like the previous editions: Can you briefly recount the experience of these and explain the new axes of recovery?
The first was in 2007 FIC. At the time, Estonia was not "cyberattaquée." In 2004, I had flown under the authority of Thierry Breton , a working group on cybercrime. The European Union, our partner, wanted to develop cross-border cooperation in the fight against cybercrime. Hence the orientation given to the first four editions. Since the origins of the FIC, the predators have undergone profound changes. Now the "warrior" and "terrorist" mingle with cybercriminals. Cyber covers the fight against cybercrime and cyber are nested. This is why the FIC now covers the widest field.
2 / What are the main partners of the FIC, the institutional side? industrial and commercial enterprises? the international?
Partners are increasingly numerous. During the revival of FIC, he had to go to meet them. Today, they come to us. For the organization of FIC, the police relies on the expertise of CEIS has proved its effectiveness with the "Summer University of Defense." Our main partner is the public Nord-Pas-de-Calais has the ambition to develop a digital hub. We are supported by the ministries of defense, justice, foreign affairs, transport, etc.. Obviously ANSSI occupies a central place because we want to help in this task, including contributing to the promotion of "health informatics".
Business partners are numerous. I can not mention them all. But include Sogeti, Cassidian, Thales, Alacatel, La Poste, the Imprimerie Nationale, etc., to mention only the first to joining us. Regarding international support include those of the European Union (Europol, Eurojust), NATO, the Council of Europe, OSCE.
3 / You feel that you are not interested as "big", but also actors often omitted: SMEs, local authorities: how are they related?
"Large", as you say, are often better informed, better "armed". But they are also fragile, particularly through SCADAS which are generally poorly protected. The interest for small businesses is marked from the beginning of FIC. These, most often located in rural gendarmerie, must receive government support, especially in the context of territorial economic intelligence in which the police is very committed. Local authorities, actresses this form of intelligence should also be more involved in the creation of a safer cyberspace. One of the three components of the ICF is dedicated to them.
4 / It remains that there will be major issues, including the issue of governance and public policy: is the theme of the year, six months after the report Bockel and just before the publication of the White Paper?
Governance and strategy are the words most often spoken by the companies and institutions at the "round table" prior to the development of the program. To borrow a military terminology, we are at the strategic or operational level and not at the tactical level, very well covered in other forums more geared towards the ISS in its technical aspects.
5 / Similarly, everyone feels good an industrial dimension, whether public-private partnerships or constitution of a BITD French or European: FIC will he clarify these concepts and how direction?
The concept of sovereignty is undoubtedly at the heart of debates, especially during the plenary session on industrial policy. French solutions are desirable, but must also seek greater European solidarity if we do not want to be "American" or "Chinese". FIC must contribute to this awareness.
6 / Finally, another aspect evokes the issue of cyber security within the meaning of public order and protection against cybercrime, but also measures of SSI and health informatics: how to reconcile the requirements, seemingly contradictory, protection and freedom to use?
For nearly two centuries, public policy is built on the balance between security and freedom. Freedom without security, it is the law of the strongest, anarchy. Security without freedom is oppression. We must therefore seek balance. Preserve civil liberties in cyberspace who find a new field of expression but also protect - especially the weakest - against predators.
Public policy should be based on trust, which is based on knowledge, competence, conscience. FIC also has a philosophical dimension.
7 / Finally, two quick questions: how to involve young people and students? how to prolong the debate "oral" beyond the moment of the FIC?
Institutions and companies are looking for the "rare". The estimated need for engineers specializing in cyber to 1000 per year, a volume that is not reached today. The deficit also affects other branches. As you can see many universities and grandes écoles support us. FIC is not fair "cyberétudiant" but we wish to facilitate relationships between students and future employers.
FIC is not only an event, it is a dynamic that extends between two forums. The Observatory will meet regularly (first session was held with the Skills Forum aspects banking). A newsletter is published regularly. The Gendarmerie operates a network of reservists netizens, itself connected with that of cyber defense. The FIC is not just a meeting, an exchange but it is mostly a citizen, a movement of thought and action whose aim is to contribute to the influence of France and thus its influence.
Sir, thank you .

Add in an inhaler I get through the drug company's help program and I'll hit it in Apr. By using your pharmacies, I will get the product at the same price I pay out-of-pocket, but it won't be applied to the total cost. I figure 3 months' supply at the beginning and end of the year and I'll save a lot. – Bob
|I was put on Xarelto. After one and half months of my insurance paying for this drug, I could not afford the medication. So I looked online and found PharmacyChecker. I then with a prescription ordered my Xarelto from one of their recommended pharmacies, and paid $348.00 for a three month supply of Xarelto... I'm very pleased and happy with PharmacyChecker and my Canadian pharmacy recommended by them. Without them, I would not be able to take my Xarelto. Thank you for your great service. – Sheila S.
|My eye drops cost $175.00 because it is a Tier 3 drug. It lasts less than one month being used once a day. I buy this now from Canada for $14.95 plus shipping. It just seems ludicrous that there is so much difference. Thank you Canada. – Bill K.
|I have used PharmacyChecker for me and my wife. Drugs we need are very expensive and with no insurance and limited income we could not otherwise afford them. It is the research tool I have found. Thank you so much. – Larry
|I have found your information incredibly advantageous, money saving in comparison to other pharmacy prices. I thank you for these announcements and please keep me on your mailing list. Thank you. – Julie
|I looked and looked for a Canadian pharmacy that had the exact brand drug at a better price than I could find in the US and couldn't find one. Thanks to your site I found a great price on the exact brand name drug! Just wanted you to know. – Robert
|I've shown several doctors PhamacyChecker.com and I know for a fact that they have shared it with many of their patients. They have all thanked me for leading down that path and, in essence, they have thanked you. – Stephen
|You have done a great job with this site. It's thorough, quick and runs beautifully. Plus I'm using Canadian vendors and have saved a bunch of money. Thank you. – Nancy
|I just wanted to pass along my thanks for your website. It helped me make an educated decision on the Canadian pharmacy to choose. I especially found the comments helpful, as ratings and such are helpful -- it's the end users that tell it like it is. So in closing, thank you for your website. Keep up the good work. – Susan
|Awesome and totally saved me when I had insurance that didn't cover my prescription like it should have. It was really hard for me to find a way to afford the prescription I needed and no one seemed to be able to tell where to even start. I really appreciate the service you provide. – Lacey
|Thank you for your newsletter. I applaud your efforts on behalf of patients whose lives depend on reliable pharmacies. – Steffi
|Thank God for your company... And all of you!!! – Bill

Purchasing The Right Cheap Cars
Are you in need of a car for your daily traveling while your pocket is not that heavy? Well, what is the best option you can think of? Simply Cheap Cars would do. It will fulfill your requirements while saving your money as well.
Various ways are available to obtain cheap cars. One way is to purchase a car that lacks the good options and is in lower quality compared to a regular car in the market. Other option is to buy finance for a car. This will help you own the car with a lower an initial cost. But the most popular and the most strategic method to obtain cheap cars are to buy used cars.
In addition, many of the used cars in the U.S market are not generally that old and are in fact new models of vehicles having a lower mileage. Hence, this can be considered as buying a brand new car for a much cheaper price. Of course the satisfaction of buying a brand new car will no longer be there, but what if your financial situation won't allow you to do so?
Some other methods to buy cheap cars are to go for an online research for less popular brands and to go for cars with little defects. These online search providers for cheap cars will be able to find you low budget cars in your state.
If you are starting your home based business and in need of a vehicle for traveling and transportation purposes, low budget cheap cars will be the smartest option. It is best if you do not make your company vulnerable by having a higher capital cost for assets. In addition to risking your company, such a move would also risk the careers of employees. By using used cars in an organization, you can bring the cost factor rapidly.
Even though cheap cars are subjected to depreciation that will be carried forward, this depreciation factor can be neglected since the initial cost is almost around 25-50% of the initial cost. You should carry out an initial study of the necessary requirements in order to secure a better bargain. A cheap car is practically useless if it does not satisfy your requirements and thus, you should always do research first before buying cheap cars.
With as many as thousands of websites are waiting to help you find the best possible cheap cars available nearest to you, your life is made easier. Go for cheap cars, nobody will know for how much you bought it for.
Besides this information, you should also find other information on laser radar detector where you can find helpful information about Vector radar detector which will help you to uplift your knowledge.

The Slovácký krúžek from Brno
The Slovácký krúžek - folklore group is one of the oldest groups of such kind on the territory of the Czech Republic. It was founded in 1908 as a free association of students from the Eastern Moravia region. The same applies to the present situation. The core of the group consist of young people who come to Brno to make their studies there. In its performance the "Slovácký krúžek" group shows the folk culture of the "Moravské Slovácko" region, i. e. the South-Eastern Moravia, which is famous especialy of rich and still living folklore traditions, and the variety of bright colour costumes the common people wear till present times there. When performing on the stage the members of the dancing group, the men's and women's choir as well as the musicians are dressed in three different kind of costumes. Solo performers can show you another 27 various types of costumes of the region they represent.
Activities of the Slovácký krúžek - folklore group consist not only in stage performances on domestic festivals and abroad. There are miscellaneous programmes prepared by the club management, targeted to the public, such as the balls and meetings "at the dulcimer's", where everyone who wants it can come together with another people, and take part in dancing, singing and playing. Meetings as such are accompanied mostly with a supplementary program, the mood of which is unique for any specific appoint ment, which also can be seen on the titles, e.g. "Wine and Dine", "St. Clause's", "Christmas Feast", "Cucumber's Taste", "Wine Taste", "Plum Brandy Taste"...
Performances of Slovácký krúžek, carried on in the city of Brno, combine both the men's and women's songs, presented by solo singers and the choir, presentation of dances featured in pairs or by men or women only, scenes of habitual life and self-contained presentations of the music band. All this can be combined to a whole-evening program, or only a part of which that sometimes is desired by organisers of undertakings, who are using Slovácký krúžek's performances as an cultural introduction to their projects. Slovácký krúžek performs both in halls and outdoors, having a very experienced staff of performers who are able to make people laugh and who even can involve the visitors in common entertainments.

Any house can be turned into a home, whether it has humble square footage or luxuriously appointed grounds. A tiny Cape Cod house on the coast or a grand Italianate mansion in a secluded and exclusive housing estate offer equal chances of becoming your favorite place to be. Surrounding yourself with people and things you love goes a long way to turning your structure into a welcoming abode. Here are some ways you can create your own million dollar home on any budget and in any house.
Humans react very strongly to color. Certain colors evoke certain emotions in people based on memories and experiences as well as the psychology of color (how color tends to affect us in general). Paint is also one of the most quick and easy ways to add color to your home, so you can get the effect you want fairly painlessly. Determine your favorite colors and then plan out an overall color scheme for you walls that will complement the colors you select in your soft and hard furnishings. When you walk into a room and feel happiest when cocooned by earth tones, energized by vibrant reds and oranges, or soothed by blues, you will truly feel at home.
Whatever your budget, choose the best quality you can afford in furniture and textiles. High-quality materials and construction in furniture, upholstery, draperies, bedding, and storage items mean that these articles are far more likely to last longer and look good. You'll get more for your money, in other words. But be sure to choose items that please your eye and appeal to your sense of style and personality. Your home could be a showcase of important pieces that cause art and antique dealers to drool openly, but unless you love living amongst your possessions, your house won't really be a home. Some professional decorators encourage home owners to live in an empty house for a while until they know exactly how they want it to look, and then make careful and studied quality purchases as resources and time allow.
Private Spaces
We tend to focus on public spaces first, but it might be better to allocate resources to turning your private spaces into havens of safety and seclusion. As you spend approximately one-third of your life sleeping, your bedroom should be an oasis of rest. Again, color and quality come into play here, but so does finding the absolute best mattress for your body. When you can lie down comfortably at night and wake up in the morning feeling refreshed, your life will seem less stressful and far more enjoyable. It's never a waste to spend the resources on your private spaces, as this focus can quickly turn your house into your own million dollar home.

Thanksgiving has whizzed past and Christmas looms ahead. If you're anything like me, you make this super stupid promise to yourself roughly December 24th that you will buy gifts throughout the year, so you aren't pressed and stressed and ready to stand on a roof with a shotgun holding the entire dish of rum balls hostage…and ALL the rum. No, this year will be different. I will be PREPARED.

How to U-Turn a Motorcycle
It may look easy, but a smoothly executed u-turn on a motorcycle is more challenging than you might guess.
How do you perform a u-turn that looks effortless? Consider these tips and practice them in the safety of an empty parking lot, and you'll find yourself more easily turning your bike around on the street:
It's All in the Eyes
The old adage "You'll go where you're looking" holds especially true when it comes to u-turns. That said, don't look down, and keep your line of vision going through the turn, constantly focusing your eyes ahead, where you want to go, rather than towards the pavement below.
Ride Within the Friction Zone
The friction zone is the area where your clutch is slipping enough to transmit some, but not all power from the engine to the rear wheel. Don't try to u-turn in neutral, and don't do with a gear fully engaged, either; riding within the friction zone will give you more control over the bike through the throttle, which helps modulate the motorcycles's lean angle through subtle adjustments.
Drag the Rear Brake
Avoid using the front brakes during u-turns, as the forks are more sensitive to diving at low speeds. Gentle dragging of the rear brake creates stability, enabling better control while you're maneuvering your bike through the turn.
Keep Your Weight Mass Centralized
There's a natural tendency to stick your leg out when you turn (making it ready to break a fall), but your motorcycle will be more manageable when peripheral mass (ie, you!) is closer to the bike. Keep your feet on the pegs; if necessary, you might be helped by putting some weight on the outside peg, in a similar but more subtle way than you would while riding offroad.
Practice Turning Both Ways
For whatever reason, most people find it much easier to make tight left turns than right turns. To develop a more balanced u-turn skill set, practice doing figure 8s in an empty parking lot. The drill will build your muscle memory for both sides of your body. Similarly, try riding in a wide circle and narrowing your path so you're forming an ever-narrowing spiral; once you can't turn any more tightly, exit and try it again the other way. Remember to keep looking where you want to go, especially when you're changing directions.

A bridge arrives
An article in Saturday's Rensselaer Republican said that the parts of the bridge that will link Weston Cemetery and Bicentennial Park would be delivered today, and they were right. This afternoon a long flatbed truck with several pieces of the bridge were unloaded south of the river.
1 comment:
That truss seems to be massive overkill for pedestrians. Obesity in America isn't THAT bad of a problem.
Or is vehicular traffic going to be allowed? Why would you need lots of steel I-beams to carry a few hundred pounds? Or did they design it for the largest number of people who could physically fit on the bridge simultaneously?

Read the whole story here.Gary Evans joins Kate Marshall in hoping to reduce the number of natural gas frack water trucks tearing up local roads.The common ground seems to stop there, however, as officials with GreenHunter Water continue to clash with the group of concerned residents known as the "Wheeling Water Warriors" over the plan to construct the frack water recycling plant at the former Seidler's Oil Service site on North 28th Street in Warwood.Friday, GreenHunter officials offered a tour of the Warwood site to the warriors and members of Wheeling City Council. Councilwoman Gloria Delbrugge, who lives in and represents Warwood, and Councilman Robert "Herk" Henry attended the tour, along with the warriors."Our goal is to remove much of this truck traffic from the roads," said Evans, chief executive officer of both Magnum Hunter Resources and GreenHunter Resources, which owns the site of the proposed Warwood GreenHunter Water plant.

Sadly my Grandad passed away yesterday and the type of person I am makes me want to bury my head and keep my brain occupied.
I headed to our spare room where I do my crafting and did just that.
I bought the Doodle Bags Download from Pink Petticoat sometime ago but have never got round to using it.
The download includes loads of designs and colours for the boxes, bags,
sentiment cards and tags.
Here are some pics of what I made.

Some upcoming Russia book releases found on Amazon.
The Last of the Tsars: Nicholas II and the Russian Revolution by Robert Service (Sep 5 2017)
A riveting account of the last eighteen months of Tsar Nicholas II's life and reign from one of the finest Russian historians writing today.
In March 1917, Nicholas II, the last Tsar of All the Russias, abdicated and the dynasty that had ruled an empire for three hundred years was forced from power by revolution. Now, on the hundredth anniversary of that revolution, Robert Service, the eminent historian of Russia, examines Nicholas's life and thought from the months before his momentous abdication to his death, with his family, in Ekaterinburg in July 1918.
The story has been told many times, but Service's deep understanding of the period and his forensic examination of previously untapped sources, including the Tsar's diaries and recorded conversations, as well as the testimonies of the official inquiry, shed remarkable new light on his troubled reign, also revealing the kind of Russia that Nicholas wanted to emerge from the Great War.
The Last of the Tsars is a masterful study of a man who was almost entirely out of his depth, perhaps even willfully so. It is also a compelling account of the social, economic and political ferment in Russia that followed the February Revolution, the Bolshevik seizure of power in October 1917 and the beginnings of Lenin's Soviet socialist republic.
Russia's Border Wars and Frozen Conflicts by James J. Coyle (Jul 23 2017)
This book examines the origins and execution of Russian military and political activities in Moldova, Georgia, Ukraine, and Nagorno-Karabakh. Using a realist perspective, the author concludes that there are substantial similarities in the four case studies: Russian support for minority separatist movements, conflict, Russian intervention as peacekeepers, Russian control over the diplomatic process to prevent resolution of the conflict, and a perpetuation of Russian presence in the area. The author places the conflicts in the context of international law and nationalism theory.
Russia in the Wake of the Cold War: Perceptions and Prejudices by Dorothy Horsfield (May 30 2017)
Amid widespread and increasing alarm in Western strategic and foreign policy circles following Russia's capture of Crimea, support for rebels in Ukraine, and military intervention in Syria, this study provides a timely and sophisticated analysis of the nature and intentions of post-Soviet government under President Vladimir Putin. Based on both Russian and non-Russian sources, this book examines the enduring Cold War legacies underpinning Western perceptions of contemporary Russia. It analyzes the ways in which the West has interpreted and reacted to Russia's domestic authoritarianism and foreign policy behavior and argues for diplomatic engagement based on liberal pluralism.
Patriotic Education in Contemporary Russia: Sociological Studies in the Making of the Post-Soviet Citizen by Anna Sanina (Jul 25 2017)
This book outlines the complexities, contestation, and contradictions in the formal organization and contents of patriotic education in post-Soviet Russia. While the topics of patriotism and patriotic education are highly political and politicized, this study approaches them from a more sociological perspective. It is based on a variety of sources and empirical data, including the indicators and budgets of federal and regional patriotic-education programs and on field research. The book explores in depth all major agents of patriotic education in Russia, such as the government, schools, youth associations, churches, and the film/cartoon industry. It traces the development of governmental patriotic programs in recent decades, discusses how the Soviet past and political traditions influence today's system of patriotic education, and presents numerous case studies illustrating real-life processes in current patriotic education.
The State Counsellor: A Fandorin Mystery by Boris Akunin (Jul 4 2017)
Since the publication of The Winter Queen, a New York Times Notable Book and the first mystery featuring Erast Fandorin, Boris Akunin's historical mystery series has become a worldwide sensation, selling millions of copies and propelling Akunin into the ranks of Russia's most widely read contemporary novelists. The first new Fandorin novel available to an American audience in a decade, The State Counsellor tests the handsome diplomat-detective's guile and integrity like no mystery before.
Russia, 1891. The new governor-general of Siberia has been secreted away on a train from St. Petersburg to Moscow. A blizzard rages outside as a mustachioed official climbs aboard near the city; with his trademark stutter, he introduces himself as State Counsellor Erast Fandorin. He then thrusts a dagger inscribed with the initials CG into the governor-general's heart and, tearing off his mustache, escapes out the carriage window. The head of the Department of Security soon shows up at the real Fandorin's door and arrests him for murder. The only way to save his reputation is to find CG—and the government mole who is feeding the group information. Can Fandorin survive corruption among his fellow officials, the fearlessness of an unknown enemy, and the advances of a sultry young nihilist with his morals intact? The State Counsellor is a colorful entertainer from a master of the sly historical romp.
Cultural Forms of Protest in Russia by Birgit Beumers et al. (Aug 24 2017)
Alongside the Arab Spring, the 'Occupy' anti-capitalist movements in the West, and the events on the Maidan in Kiev, Russia has had its own protest movements, notably the political protests of 2011–12. As elsewhere in the world, these protests had unlikely origins, in Russia's case spearheaded by the 'creative class'. This book examines the protest movements in Russia. It discusses the artistic traditions from which the movements arose; explores the media, including the internet, film, novels and fashion, through which the protesters have expressed themselves; and considers the outcome of the movements, including the new forms of nationalism, intellectualism, and feminism put forward. Overall, the book shows how the Russian protest movements have suggested new directions for Russian – and global – politics.
Revolution! Writings from Russia by Pete Ayrton (Sep 5 2017)
Revolution! will contain writing by Russians and by foreigners who went to Russia and for whom the Russian Revolution was a political litmus test. The themes―hunger and heating, the limits of personal freedom, the infallibility of the party, free love, the role of art in the revolution―dominated twentieth century intellectual life and continue to resonate today. Many books on the Russian Revolution will be published in the centenary year, but Revolution! will be unique in portraying this momentous event through the writings of those who witnessed it (or its immediate after-effects).
Following No Man's Land and No Pasaran, it is an anthology that vividly portrays the many sides of an event that changed the course of world history―and is still contested today.
Panorama: Intermediate Russian Language and Culture by Benjamin Rifkin et al. (Jun 10 2017)
Panorama moves intermediate-level students of Russian toward advanced proficiency by engaging them in a systematic and comprehensive approach to Russian grammar and engaging them with texts from a variety of genres, including proverbs and sayings, to immerse students in Russian culture.
By reading and listening to Russian literary classics and contemporary nonfiction texts, students develop a contextual understanding of Russian culture and forms of expression that grow their command of vocabulary, grammar, and complex syntax. The textbook includes comprehensive in-class vocabulary and grammar exercises and discussion topics as well as reading texts (for work in class and at home), summative oral and written exercises, and compelling color photos.
Russia and Its Islamic World: From the Mongol Conquest to the Syrian Military Intervention by Robert Service (Aug 1 2017)
Russia has long played an influential part in its world of Islam, and not all the dimensions are as widely understood as they ought to be. In Russia and Its Islamic World, Robert Service examines Russia's interactions with Islam at home and around the globe and pinpoints the tsarist and Soviet legacy, current complications, and future possibilities. The author details how the Russian encounter with Islam was close and problematic long before the twenty-first century and how Russia has recently chosen to interfere in Muslim states of the Middle East, building alliances and making enemies. Service reveals how some features of the present-day relationship continue past policies; others are starkly and perilously different, making the current moment in global affairs dangerous for both Russians and the rest of us. He describes how the Kremlin dominates Muslims in the Russian Federation, exerts a deep influence on the Muslim-inhabited states on Russia's southern frontiers, and has lunged militarily and politically into the Middle East. Foreign Muslims, he shows, do not value the leadership in Moscow except as a means to an end; Putin's pose as a friend of the Islamic world is no more than a pose—and a hypocritical one at that.
The Unwomanly Face of War: An Oral History of Women in World War II by Svetlana Alexievich (Jul 25 2017)
A long-awaited English translation of the groundbreaking oral history of women in World War II across Europe and Russia—from the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature
For more than three decades, Svetlana Alexievich has been the memory and conscience of the twentieth century. When the Swedish Academy awarded her the Nobel Prize, it cited her invention of "a new kind of literary genre," describing her work as "a history of emotions . . . a history of the soul."
In The Unwomanly Face of War, Alexievich chronicles the experiences of the Soviet women who fought on the front lines, on the home front, and in the occupied territories. These women—more than a million in total—were nurses and doctors, pilots, tank drivers, machine-gunners, and snipers. They battled alongside men, and yet, after the victory, their efforts and sacrifices were forgotten.
Alexievich traveled thousands of miles and visited more than a hundred towns to record these women's stories. Together, this symphony of voices reveals a different aspect of the war—the everyday details of life in combat left out of the official histories.
Translated by the renowned Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky, The Unwomanly Face of War is a powerful and poignant account of the central conflict of the twentieth century, a kaleidoscopic portrait of the human side of war.
The Putin Interviews by Oliver Stone (Jun 16 2017)
Academy Award winner Oliver Stone was able to secure what journalists, news organizations, and even other world leaders have long coveted: extended, unprecedented access to Russian President Vladimir Putin.
The Putin Interviews are culled from more than a dozen interviews with Putin over a two-year span―never before has the Russian leader spoken in such depth or at such length with a Western interviewer. No topics are off limits in the interviews, which first occurred during Stone's trips to meet with NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden in Moscow and most recently after the election of President Donald Trump.
Prodded by Stone, Putin discusses relations between the United States and Russia, allegations of interference in the US election, and Russia's involvement with conflicts in Syria, Ukraine, and elsewhere across the globe. Putin speaks about his rise to power and details his relationships with Presidents Clinton, George W. Bush, Obama, and Trump. The exchanges are personal, provocative, and at times surreal. At one point, Stone asks, "Why did Russia hack the election?"; at another, Stone introduces him to Stanley Kubrick's 1964 Cold War satire "Dr. Strangelove," which the two watch together.
Stone has interviewed controversial world leaders before, including Hugo Chavez, Fidel Castro, and Benjamin Netanyahu. But The Putin Interviews, in its unmediated access to one of the most enigmatic and powerful men in the world, can only be compared to the series of conversations between David Frost and Richard Nixon we now refer to as "The Nixon Interviews" of 1977.
The book will also contain references and sources that give readers a deeper understanding of the topics covered in the interviews and make for a more robust reading experience.

Have a look in the new S-class coupe. That's right, slow down and quit pressing your mouse or swiping your screen for a little seconds. The vehicle is gorgeous, no? But photos don't even get it is gigantic dimension, its reputation, its curves. It's definitely not a supermodel, a waif of the sports car created to appeal equally to gawking adolescents and the ones more chronologically advanced but evenly not secure. This is a modern Mercedes, completely noticed.
An extra second to keep in mind the CL-class, please, that old lady of any coupe that's been haunting Benz dealers for years now. Okay, done with this, no eulogy needed. Mercedes sold fewer than 500 of these a year ago. We won't be amazed when it finds additional buyers for the new B-pillarless S550 during the first month of sales, which likely will be October. Pricing has yet to be announced, but assume it to start around $120,000.
So, the S-class coupe is expensive, yes. As it ought to be, for a car that stands atop the Mercedes range of products. Fire up the 4.7-liter twin-turbocharged V-8, and the tire out rumbles louder compared to S-class sedan's, despite the fact that it's the same engine making the same 449 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque. The coupe feels quicker to accelerate, shift, and shed speed. Cutting 8.7 inches of wheelbase makes it a sportier proposition compared to a sedan, if we finally get one on our scales, the coupe could be lighter by a several hundred pounds, if Mercedes is to be believed. Sprinting through traffic in the land of Gucci, the S550 coupe feels more nimble than any CL ever has, despite measurements that track within a few inches of their predecessor's in most dimension.

Beachfront view

That is an interesting little sandbox down there. I agree about the trees. They served a purpose and should be left in place.

I cannot imagine anyone deliberately destroying a tree. Some people have a strange idea of beauty, I guess.

I am glad that the trees are being protected. The vegetation on a beach is part of the beauty of it.

The fact that the beach trees are protected is good to hear. Costa Rica is to be admired for their efforts to protect the environment. Especially the law preventing further construction on the beaches. Grand Cayman is a prime example of what can happen without such laws.

Those sandboxes are pretty silly, it seems to me. I wonder why people wouldn't want to take twenty more steps and be directly on the beach. Much more authentic. (And kudos to Costa Rica and to the property management company for trying to preserve the natural environment around there.)
Re your holocaust comment yesterday: Many of the losses did occur near the end of the war. When we were in Amsterdam in December, we visited the Anne Frank house and learned that she died from the terrible conditions of her imprisonment just weeks before the camp was liberated. Amsterdam's Holocaust Museum is well worth a visit.
