The 2014-15 CIS silver medalist Gee-Gees continue to build toward sustainable success with the addition of two freshmen who head coach James Derouin describe as "major pieces for the future of this program." With Calvin Epistola and Malick Turenne joining the likes of Brody Maracle, Ethan Degazio and last year's recruiting class of Brandon Robinson and Mackenzie Morrison, the future of the uOttawa men's basketball program looks to be in great hands.
Calvin Epistola, a 5-foot-9 Toronto native, is known as a floor general and has been a proven commodity on every team he's played for. "I like to use my IQ of the game to get around the court. I know I'm not the tallest, strongest or fastest, but if I use what I have to the best of my ability I can make some plays," explained Calvin, who will major in linguistics.
The Toronto Triple Threat product shows a high level of composure, possesses exceptional court vision, outstanding passing skills, a reliable jump shot and the ability to make the players around him better. Epistola is a Canada Games gold medalist with Team Ontario and an OFSAA Champion with Oakwood High School in Toronto.
Epistola was also recruited by Carleton University, but a strong coaching staff and the chance to learn from veteran leadership at the point guard position influenced his decision to take his talents downtown. "I felt like I had a good relationship with both Coach Jimmy and Coach Justin. The style of play, and the amount of learning I anticipated playing behind Mike [L'Africain] for a year was an opportunity I couldn't pass up."
Malick Turenne is a 6-foot-5 guard from Gatineau, Québec, and is described as the top shooter of the 2016 recruiting class by North Pole Hoops. The former Ottawa Guardsmen and CIA Bounce player enters the CIS with more experience than most of his peers, yet remains humble, observing that, "None of us rookies have ever played university basketball, so we're all in the same boat. It's going to be a good learning experience for all of us."
Malick, who will major in biology at uOttawa, played on the 2014 Cadet Men's National Team that competed at the FIBA Americas U16 Championship for men, taking home the bronze. Turenne also participated in the Americas Team Camp presented by Nike in Toronto during the summer of 2014. The camp brought together 60 athletes from six countries (Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Dominican Republic, Mexico and Puerto Rico) to participate in drills and competition directed by NBA athletes and coaches.
"This year for me will be about adapting to the new level of basketball, learning from my older teammates and getting ready for when my turn comes. I'm looking up to guys like Mike and Caleb because they play a big role on this team; a role that I'll eventually be placed in."

Baby Got Back…Of Envelopes, that is…
Hi, my name is Meg, and I am an Etsy-holic.
No, seriously.
As if the treasures to be found on Ebay weren't
So I'm back to share my latest Etsy purchase, again
paper related–more specifically, invitation envelope-related.
Now that I have our save-the-dates off my plate (I mailed them over the weekend) I can focus on the invitations, which will go out in mid May. That seems like a lot of time, but considering I'll be assembling 150 pocketfold invites between now and
then…it is not.
Although I spent hours hand addressing our save-the-dates, we've already decided to buck etiquette and use cute clear labels for the actual invitations. But what about the back of the envelope? How will we place our return address? That is where the Etsy purchase comes in. And my envelope-back inspiration, from the ever-talented Knottie ItsmeSenam, also owner of custom design
studio, My Design Diva.
- Here was her stamp, my inspiration:
- And here is mine, from Etsy seller AbsoluteCreations.

ooh, I like that. I was just going to use labels. But that's a much better idea. Thanks!
Glad it's helpful! I guess for the formal mailings you're not supposed to put return address on front of envelope because it makes it look too much like mass mail? I heard that somewhere. But i get it….

In today's economy, finding the right job can be difficult. There are fewer employment opportunities, and more competition for those jobs. You need something to gain the edge that will win you the job you want (or need). Read on to find some helpful information that will get you going in the right direction!
Avoid getting into conflicts with people you work with. Try to get along with everyone and maintain a positive attitude. If you build that reputation, you will certainly find that you are chosen for raises and promotions before others.
Be prepared to answer quite a few questions when you're about to be interviewed. At the close, the interviewer will ask to see if you still have questions. You should consider the different aspects of the work environment that you aren't capable of learning without first-hand experience.
Do not waste any time applying for jobs that are not really on the list of your preferred positions. While you may end up getting one of these jobs, you will not be happy with it since that is not really where you want to be. contractor tax benefits love your job, the more likely you are to be better at it.
Try doing a practice interview before you go to interview for a new job. Have a friend or family member play the role of the interviewer. This will help you be prepared when you go to your interview. It will also help you remain calm and collected when you are at your interview because you are better prepared.
Try organizing your resume by priorities. You should list your most important and most relevant information first on your resume. You should also list any key accomplishments near the top of every position that you have held. This will help your prospective employer see the most important details first when they begin reading your resume.
If you are required to complete an application for employment by a potential employer, you need to fill it out fully for them. Even though the same information is available on your resume, it is still important to show you can pay attention to detail and fill out the application in full.
Prior to going for an interview for a job, it is helpful to know as much as you can about the company. When doing an interview, if you are able to talk with the interviewer about their company, it will make it look as you are very interested in working for them. Do your research by asking around about them or looking them up online.
Remember that an interview is your chance to sell yourself as a future employee. Don't talk about what you want the company to do for you. Employers aren't interested in that at this stage. Instead, make sure you focus on everything you can bring to the table. Make the employer understand why you should be hired instead of other candidates.
Do your best to maintain eye contact during your job interview with the interviewer. Do not try to stare them down, but keep eye contact as much as possible. This shows the interviewer that you are paying attention and that you show interest in what they have to say. Practice with a friend before your interview and keep eye contact in mind.
Make sure that the voicemail on your phone sounds professional if you are giving your number to potential employers. Avoid loud background music and distracting noises. You should be clear about who you are and politely ask the caller to leave a message. Make sure that you return every call you receive promptly.
Networking within your preferred industry sector is critical. This ensures you have people to rely on when you need help. Know as i-paye umbrella reviews as you can about the field you want to work in, attend conferences, webinars and their like. Network as much as possible to learn even more.
Staying organized will help you when it comes to online job searches. Keep a list of every job you apply for and the date you applied. Also keep a list of the companies which have called you back, those which you've interviewed for and those which you've turned down a job with and why.
Many people are experiencing the frightening facts of unemployment lately: bills piling up, benefits running out and no obvious light at the end of the tunnel. You've got to keep at it until you succeed and hopefully the tips from this article will help you. Use them to persevere and finally land that job!

DeLand solidified its preseason reputation as the top girls team in Volusia County after defeating Spruce Creek, 15-2, 15-12, in last week's season-opener for both teams. The Bulldogs were led by veterans Kaley Rawlins (6 kills), Michelle Clonan (5 kills, 5 aces), and Storm Walker, who had four kills and three aces.
The Bulldogs, who have been redistricted with the Seminole County teams, will host Lake Mary on Thursday. Lake Mary will come into the match ranked No. 4 in the Class 6A state poll.

"People say you don't know what you've got until it's gone. Truth is you knew what you had, you just never thought you'd lose it." We often take things for granted, and that often leads to losing things we love. With this in mind, everyone loves how cheap McDonalds is, and the convenience of having it right next door to El Diamante. However, starting this month, it will be closed for approximately three months.
This will affect school kids that walk there during lunch and after school. They will be closing this store to remodel. In this remodel, they will make a two lane drive thru instead of just one. It should only take six weeks for the drive-thru part, but to be on the safe side they are expecting the unexpected. As a result, they are giving it a time frame of three months.
Even after they reopen, young children under the age of 12 will still be affected because Playland is going to be knocked down and rebuilt with a more modern look. I happen to work at this location, and all the employees will be dispersed into six different locations, stretching from Visalia all the way to Tulare. The last day we will be open is March 22nd.

My mother is there. Her hands are made of pure gold. They are warm on my face as she gently cradles my cheeks, softly stroking my face with her thumbs. She places her hand on my heart and holds it in her warm ray of golden light. My heart throbs and swells as tears roll down my face. I fall into her body and sit inside it like a cocoon, wrapped up in her warmth and comfort and let her walk me through these beautiful fields as she hums a precious tune that's only for my ears. Our secret melody. Our hands are bound together, our feet walk as one, our minds are ecstatic, pulsing with electricity. There is only us, and we only need each other. My eyelids droop and slowly shut, locking the warmth inside. I feel her stroke my hair and kiss my eyelids and when I reopen them again, she is gone.
Bhole Prabhu wrote in his article The Meaning and Purpose of Yoga:
The most important teaching of yoga has to do with our nature as human beings. It states that our "true nature" goes far beyond the limits of the human mind and personality-that instead, our human potential is infinite and transcends our individual minds and our sense of self. The very word "yoga" makes reference to this. The root, "yuj" (meaning "unity" or "yoke"), indicates that the purpose of yoga is to unite ourselves with our highest nature. This re-integration is accomplished through the practices of the various yoga disciplines. Until this re-integration takes place, we identify ourselves with our limitations-the limitations of the body, mind, and senses. Thus we feel incomplete and limited, and are subject to feelings of sorrow, insecurity, fear, and separation, because we have separated ourselves from the experience of the whole.

Mom gets a break
I'm leaving in two day for Houston! I'm meeting my sister Renee there to help her look for a house. They will be moving there this summer. I'm looking forward to seeing my sister and getting a much needed break. I will also get to see some friends who moved there a few years ago.

More Mozart
>> Friday, February 24, 2006
It's February and we're only two months into the Mozart year and not quite one month past Mozart's 250th birthday. There's still 10 more months of celebrations and concerts to go!
This weekend I am performing with the Stillwater Chamber Singers in the Mozart Coronation Mass, and in two weeks Steph and I will be lecturing on the life and work of Mozart in a master class for an OSU voice studio. In April we're looking forward to the DVD release of the film in which we are both featured subjects, Mozartballs, and still more airings and film festivals.
I love it! As far as I'm concerned, one can never have too much Mozart! The only thing that would make it better is if I could spend the entire Mozart year in Austria!

Today is the day that I say goodbye to friends and head to London to meet my group. I found myself with little sleep as the excitement and anxiety started to build. I was having fears of summer camp part 2, having such a amazing time the first time, the second round could not hold up to expectation. In Australia, I left with some lifelong friends, would I have those after this trip? Will there be other travelers who speak English? These people will essentially be my family and friends over the next 30 days… will I like them? will they like me?
I was dropped to the train station, with instructions on how to get the St. Pancras International, which I managed to do, with some help along the way. I had a bit of trouble with the London Tube system, as it wasn't as intuitive as I had expected it to be. With all the different lines and similar colors, I found myself staring at it perplexed, wondering which shade of purple was the line that I wanted. I decided to just find someone to ask for help. Alas I made it to my destination.
With nearly four hours to kill, I dropped my luggage, and decided to try to go outside the station to find lunch. This turned out to be a mistake! I would have been better off in the station as I found myself in a world of chains. The one pub I did find, seemed to already have been occupied by the town locals, that I wasn't quite sure I wanted to mingle with at 2pm on a Monday. I ended up settling for a sandwich shop, and had to pay more for my food for dining in! After, I set my self up at a coffee shop in the station and worked on this blog!
I must say, waiting in anticipation, made the time crawl. I found myself watching people around me, and wondering if they were part of my group. Finally, it was time and all my anxiety melted. We seem to have a really good group, and all but 4 of us are from Australia. Apparently, if you want to find an Australian, you don't go looking in Australia! Everyone is very nice and I am more excited for this trip.
We hopped on an 8pm train to Paris, where we arrived at our hostel close to midnight with the time change. The hostel we are at is very nice, aside from my bed which seems to have a hill in the middle of it. It is like the Princess and the Pea, although I am not brave enough to lift the mattress to see if there is something underneath it.
A funny tidbit from yesterday that I forgot, I have yet to adjust to being in a different time zone, although my phone is on Boston time so I have no excuse. Yesterday morning, 10am my time, 5am Boston time, I saw some exciting news on Facebook. I was so excited that I sent a text messages out to two different people, only to realize in horror that I sent 5am text messages on a Sunday morning.
Fun fact of the day, that I learned from my roommates, Thomas Crapper was the inventor of the flush toilet. The lore is that this is where the phrase, "going to the Crapper" or "taking a crap" came from. Upon doing some googling, there is another explanation for the origin of the phrase, however, I like the first explanation best!
Off to explore Paris tomorrow.

One word: wow. If this production of John Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men is this good recorded and shown on a cinema screen, I can only imagine how incredible the atmosphere and tension in the room must have been live on Broadway.
The play of course follows George (James Franco) and Lennie (Chris O'Dowd) as they arrive at a new ranch for a new job. Lennie is mentally disabled but hugely strong and often gets into trouble due to his love of stroking soft things – including mice, puppies and ladies' dresses. They enter acute dramas already in play at the ranch, including Curly's new wife acting 'like a tart' and inciting arguments, but stick together with their big dream of one day owning and tending their own land.
The play starts small as George and Lennie settle down for the night before arriving at the ranch the next morning. Their conversation reveals a lot about them and their dynamic and sets up everything necessary for the rest of the story, while in a minimalistic set using only a small river for help.
In this production, directed by Anna D. Shapiro, Franco and O'Dowd pull emotional strings immediately, as George gets mad and raises his voice towards his friend which is quite uncomfortable to watch, and Lennie cowers and threatens to run away and live in a cave.
O'Dowd is not known for being a huge physical presence from his previous roles, which include the tall but weedy Roy in The IT Crowd, but he truly becomes Lennie here, with such an impressive emotional range and a hunch that shows the character's reluctance to fill such a vast space and attract attention.
It is unsurprising that the Irish actor made audience members sob. What sort of monster wouldn't at least well up in response to this performance?
Franco also has a lot of emotional drive but his acting seems a lot more technical. No matter, for the two leads play off each other, and indeed the rest of the cast, to create relentless emotional troughs and peaks together.
It was interesting in this National Theatre Live screening to notice that the American audience, filmed on the show's final night, laughed outrageously at some of Lennie's little jokes, but the English audience in the cinema didn't react to anything nearly so vociferously. Perhaps there are different degrees of comfort in response to this mentally disabled man, or maybe it's just the different thrill and interaction of a live performance.
A nice touch for the cinema screening was the interval documentary, with Shapiro, Franco and O'Dowd speaking about the characters and the journey they go on during this play which only takes place over just a few days. It's just a bit jarring to see clips from scenes only just screened when there's half the play to go, but it filled the time nicely.
Overall this is an acting tour de force, from the smaller parts as well as the two leads, but of course this does mean you will leave the auditorium with a very heavy heart. Take tissues.

Queen Munchkin here;
Bob and Monika got the special A?D stinky goodness for Princess Boots and at first she was eating lots of it, but now she has decided that she likes her crunchies better and is not touching the A?D, so Bob emptied the open can into her bowl and gave it to me.

562 days, 11 hours, 51 minutes, 45 seconds
July 7, 2007. 7-7-7. This was supposed to be his lucky day. He was supposed to have flown from Los Angeles to Las Vegas. He looked forward to slot machines. He thought maybe he'd play some craps. If he had the time, he'd study more about poker and hit the tables there. Maybe he'd just walk around the strip, find a place outside where he could eat lunch and dinner. It's going up to 116 in Las Vegas today. He would have been so happy just to be there.

The Universality of Music
I don't believe in coincidence. I have always believed that everything happens for a reason, fate, destiny, whatever you wish to call it. I also believe that life travels in a full circle.
As I opened the laptop today I saw an article on Yahoo's homepage: NPR's weekend edition and The Gospel According to Bruce Springsteen. I have been a long, long-time Bruce Springsteen fan. In the mid to late 1980's one of my sister's and I slept in line - yes, a line of people waiting for Bruce Springsteen tickets to go on sale. I can't remember what number I was in line, but I remember I was in the first five in line. And of course being the person I am, I kept the line organized by taking names and assigning numbers for people so everyone would be treated fairly. This was long before the internet. As it turned out the wait was worth it and my sister and I were on the floor of his concert within the 1st couple of rows....it was one of the best experiences of my life.
The world has changed a lot since 1988 and I have changed a lot as well. I am no longer that irresponsible 20-something year-old who thought I was immortal and nothing bad could ever happen to me.
Somehow Bruce Springsteen's music has this ability to show the listener that no one is perfect, everyone makes mistakes, and there is always a chance to become a better person.
I have my complete collection of Bruce Springsteen CD's at home in Cairo, just waiting for me to pop in my car stereo and drive through Cairo singing my heart out, remembering the days when I thought I was immortal, and knowing now how mortal I am and how important it is to enjoy everyday. Bruce Springsteen's lyrics don't change but the meaning can change - metaphors can change, and hearts can change too.

Ah, Bruce Springsteen was one of my favorite American Artists too. I just don't listen to very much music any more.
I know what you mean about feeling your own mortality. I've been feeling mine a lot lately too.

The NASA space mission DISCOVERY is all set for its launch at the Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral. This is NASA's first mission since the Colombia disaster which ended in a crash over the state of Texas killing all the seven crew members on board. Among them was our own Kalpana Chawla from Haryana.
And according to NASA, they are taking no chances with regards to safety of astronauts and there are goin to be 112 cameras, YES, 112 cameras filming the lift off to check for possible debris and other related safety issues.
As I am typing this, there is still just over an hour and 35 mins left for the launch.
*end of update*
On a personal note, I would love to see Discovery being a successful mission and people's faith on NASA being reinforced.
*Update 2*
Due to some techincal problem in blogger, I was not able to post this some half hour back. Now, I find that the Launch has been delayed due to a problem in the fuel tank.
From the NASA page,
Today's Return to Flight launch of Space Shuttle Discovery has been postponed due to an issue with a low-level fuel cutoff sensor onboard the vehicle. The sensor protects an orbiter's main engines by triggering them to shut down in the event fuel runs unexpectedly low.
*end of update 2*
On a personal note, I would love to see this mission become a huge success and people 's faith in NASA reinforced

Holy mackerel! It's a cache machine right in my backyard!!
How could I not go and pick cherries on such a lovely rainy night? It really was a big issue deciding if I should run out or not, but soon enough the insanity overtook my body and I became a man on a mission. I got here exactly 30 minutes after it posted and I found a blank sheet! This is a real good sign... literally!
Not only did I break my FTF record tonight, but I also scored a hide for the next day (24 and counting).
I had my eye on this blank area for quite a while, but ever the procrastinator, I hid nothing. Now there are plenty!
Thanks lipster!

Love the basic Celine tee, IT makes an outfit and it is the symbol of simplicity and elegance. Of course that all the buzz is because Celine is a high fashion brand too.
Céline tee is top, but what kind of fashionista don´t love the odes to Céline?
Last summer i made an unfinnished Chanel vest top with a black textile marker and a white vest top.

The Relationship Center
Each and every one of The Relationship Center's clients is treated as a respected individual deserving of the utmost care and compassion. Dr. Rogers and Team TRC strive to make a difference in all clients' relationships. By working together with you, we will help you find your own solutions to deal with the concerns in your life.
We are clinical counselors and marriage and family therapists. Couple and family therapy is a distinct mental health discipline that works with families, couples, and individuals by looking at all aspects of their lives. Couple and family therapists address a wide variety of relationship issues and diagnose and treat mental and emotional disorders. The unit of treatment isn't just the person - even if only a single person is present - it is the set of relationships in which the person is embedded.
*The therapists at The Relationship Center pride themselves on cultural competency and embracing the diverse & unique qualities of each individual entering the counseling setting. It is our goal to provide a safe space for all who seek therapy.*
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do I have to be in a relationship to go to a couples and family therapist?
A: No. Individuals often seek help from a couple and family therapist to address behavioral problems, relationship issues, or mental and emotional disorders. Individuals may also focus on issues which may be preventing them from being in a relationship or work on issues from a marriage or a relationship that has ended. Couples need not be married to seek or benefit from marriage and family therapy. Individuals who want to improve themselves and their relationships can benefit as well.
Q: I've never been to counseling before. What should I expect the first session? What should I bring?
A: For the first session, please bring your insurance card and payment if you have a co-payment, that's it! The first session involves reviewing and filling out paperwork (about 10-15 minutes). The remainder of the session is dedicated to exploring what brings you to counseling. What symptoms are you experiencing? What goals do you have for counseling? What do we (therapist) need to know about you, your life and your future? Each therapist has a different style, we are collaborative and will work with you to grow and achieve your goals. One session is 55-60 minutes in length
Q: How confidential is counseling?
A: By law the therapist and client engage in a privileged relationship. The therapist may not disclose any details of a counseling session. However, confidentially may be breached in rare instances. Theses instances are (a.) client is at imminent risk of harming him/herself or another person; (b.) if child/elder abuse or neglect suspected; (c.) if the release of clinical records is court-ordered; (d.) client requests information to be released and signs a release of information document.

Luke Haines – New York in the '70s
A prequel to the latest Taylor Swift album/a tribute in the form of a piss take that manages what we call "the Mudhoney trick" round here, i.e. it somehow sounds even more like a work of severe spiritual devotion for the fact that the devotees in question have their tongues firmly wedged in their cheeks.
Cooly G – Wait 'til Night
The club in the bedroom in the club. Some reviews said it lacked the narrative depth of her previous album, but while you're in the moment you never mind.
Ex-Hex – Rips
No one sounds like they're having more fun playing basic-arsed guitar lines than Mary Timoney (aside from maybe John Darnielle, and even then only mid-concert) and here she's found a couple of girls who're willing to try and match her riff for riff and kick for kick. Less ambitious than Wild Flag, sure, but it's less fussy for it – sometimes a girl(/boy's) just gotta preen, and sometimes that means rock'n'roll.
Owen Pallett – In Conflict
Twelve of the year's most careful, clever compositions, and one perfect Mountain Goats pastiche for bass, drums and violin. I'll treasure the former more in the long run but it's the latter that's got me through.
Vince Staples – Hell Can Wait
Unlike YG, Vince Staples has skills and stories good enough to stand up with the best of them, and on this brutally short record he's got the beats to match. Cold like prime Clipse, discordant and disoriented like the first (and, so far, best) Shabazz Palaces album, this is the best observed and least optimistic rap record I've heard all year, and even then it's not quite totally bereft of hope – "Is you feeling amazing?/Yeah I'm feeling the love/Hope I get to take it with me when my living is done."

Before the Make Up Club party I told you about in my previous post, I had a very nice day in Ghent.
Since a couple of weeks, I'm completely addicted to this website called Travbuddy. It's a website which allows travel-loving people to exchange travel tips, write travel blogs, meet people to travel with or to meet up with during their travels. I'd been exchanging messages with a British guy called Daniel. He was about to visit Belgium for one week, so we decided to meet up.
I showed him around Ghent, although it didn't take that long before we ended up in a cosy local pub and had some Tongerlo's (I'm wondering why I never had Tongerlo beer before, it's amazing!) and a nice chat about music, travelling and the western view on Russia (yes, I actually àm capable of having serious conversation!). Later on, we met up with Olga, Daniel's girlfriend who usually lives in Latvia but who is currently doing an internship in Bruges for a couple of months. We did another little tourist tour and then headed back to the pub where we had some more great talks about travelling, languages and the reasons why Daniel should buy Olga flowers. I had a great time, Daniel and Olga both turned out to be absolutely amazing people.

Assassin's Creed has always been about the everlasting conflict between the assassins and the templars. In Assassin's Creed Unity this conflict gets an interesting twist when love between an assassin and a templar takes the center stage. This is what creative director Alexandre Amancio revealed at Gamescom in an interview with Zoomin.TV Games.
"forbidden love" what like incest? "A game all the family can play" I joke I joke, I watched the video, kinda put me off a little, hence the jokes

Even though I took this photo when I was first testing the Medalist, I think it's apropos for today (to be explained after the shot):
Today was really my last trip up to school. Even though I thought Columbia had been fully paid off, they still managed to scare up some minor charges that needed to be taken of, "or else." Or else what, they won't let me register next semester? Did they forget that I've withdrawn from school, am on a leave of absence, or maybe we should just call a spade a spade, I dropped out? I think I like "dropout." Even though this isn't my first time dropping out of college, even in mid-semester, I have a better idea of what I'm doing with my life.
After I paid them off, I decided to walk home. It's something I've done a few times before, and usually takes a little less than two hours. Today I took Broadway all the way down, and was able to put that thick black magic marker line cutting across the map segments of Manhattan in my Hagstrom. Even though I haven't mentioned it around here lately, just about every day I've been out walking, taking pictures of street signs at intersections, and dutifully tracing my route on my map upon my return home. I've found it's become somewhat of an obsession. I look at the map at all the streets in my neighborhood that need to be filled in. I look and figure out my route the next time I leave the house, no matter how mundane an errand it might be, to see if I can somehow work in some untrodden streets as those in my immediate neighborhood get increasingly blacked out, radiating ever farther from their point of origin, my apartment.
Though I forget sometimes how massive this thing really is, until I look at all of the empty streets, unblemished by my Sharpie. I look and figure out how exactly to approach it. I do have somewhat of an idea, starting mainly with the avenues and then space-invadering my way down to get the streets. Today was huge because now, by my self-imposed rules, I can take the Broadway subway uptown and do some walking, because I'll be able to connect it to an area I've already walked. I'm not just going to go into Inwood, do some quick walking around, and then hop back downtown again if it's not connected. It's like an electricity thing. The grid has to be in contact at all times. I've been thinking a lot about the grid lately.
It was 100 years ago that the grid plan was being laid out on this island. Even as the 18th Century came to a close, ideas were already being bandied about as how to manage the ever-expanding population of New York City.
NYC is somewhat of a hobby of mine. It's history, especially. I'm also very much into ephemera. My mother was an antique dealer when I was growing up, and whenever she did shows, I was always fascinated by the ephemera dealers. There always seemed to be a more immediate, tangible connection with the past when I held some kind of document, letter, newspaper, as opposed to the English transferware that was my mother's specialty. I was also always fascinated with maps, so it makes sense that I grew up to become a collector of maps of NYC.
The oldest map I have is from the 1860s, yet it is a reproduction of an even older map, dating to the 1720s. I like the idea that even my repro map is an antique in its own right. You can learn a lot just by looking at maps from different eras depicting the same place. I'm always surprised to see that where in the 1850s, a certain location may have had a church and a cemetery only to be replaced less than ten years later by a scrapyard. Some people go out for fun, I look at maps.
I spent a lot of time looking at maps when I was a limo driver, especially in the outer boroughs, like when I'd end up going to someplace I wouldn't even want to be in the daytime, let alone in the middle of the night, and would quickly consult my trusty Hagstrom before running every red light until I reached civilization (you be a white guy driving a stretch limousine in East New York in the middle of the night and tell me you wouldn't do the same thing. Oh, and if you're wondering why a fancy limo would have business in a shitty neighborhood, it's really not that surprising. Just because someone gets famous and leaves the hood, that doesn't mean his friends get to leave. And once you drop off the megastar, if his friends are still in the car that he's paying for, you're going to end up in some very "interesting" places before you find your way home).
200 years ago the surveyors had to deal with forests, hills, swamps, creeks...all of which were ignored as the city expanded into the grid which begins at 14th and at the time, stopped at 155th. And I'll be walking each and every one of them, in their footsteps.
By the way, there are still a few physical remnants of the survey. I saw one on TV, and was able to find it on my own. In central park, in one of the corners of one of the open fields (I don't know if it's the Sheep Meadow or the Great Lawn, I don't know which one is which and don't really care), there, embedded in the exposed bedrock, is an iron spike surrounded by lead. There's another one in the park up near Harlem that a friend of mine found by accident and took a picture of it not knowing what it was, but it struck her as odd.
Okay, I don't know how to end this increasingly boring ramble of a post with its lame, pandering attempts at being profound. I have to find my way out of this, like clawing out of a paper bag.
Wait...who the hell came up with that term about clawing your way out of a paper bag? How many people have you met that have ended up trapped in paper bags and whose only recourse was to claw their way out? Is this really such a big problem plaguing society today?

Drink Up Philippines is an event that combines wine, beer, cocktails, food and games. If you are going to discover new favorites, they have a great selection but you have to remain focused! I went to this event to find a great beer. Sad to say, I was only able to try two since I succumbed to the lure of food!
I had the Indio Pale Ale from Katipunan Craft Ales, made some new friends and played two rounds of beer pong, then grabbed some food. I'm pumped to see that there are micro breweries popping up around the Philippines, and they aren't doing a bad job.
The festival worked on virtual currency called tokens, which were monitored using wristbands and Pouch, a mobile marketing and loyalty app. Tokens were available on-site for 650PHP per 9 tokens. I believe there was a more affordable option for less tokens, but I had high hopes for my dwindling alcohol tolerance.

What makes a book special?
July 7, 2009 at 10:20 pm 7 comments
I like posts that get discussions going, so inspired by my last post, here's a thought: what makes a book interesting for you? I know some people go for the writing style. Lyrical, lush, detailed, plain, simple, straightforward, unique, whatever it is that makes the book speak to them in a certain way. Some are all about the characters. If they feel like they can relate to them, like their lives are reflections of their own, or if they're complete opposites even, the characters are what make the book real. The plot, obviously, keeps the story moving forward and is essentially the story. I think most people go for a combination of all these things, and more, when choosing a story that they love.
There are always exceptions to this rule too. Some of my favorite books don't make sense to me. Like the Goose Girl, by Shannon Hale. The main character is quite daft for the first half of the novel, and the writing though beautiful can be a bit overdone and dramatic at times; yet I consider GG to be among my top five books/series/authors. I think that's mostly because of the connection I feel with the book, and how it was the first novel that actually introduced me to YA literature! And how cool is that? It's kind of like Ella Enchanted: it will always have a special place in my heart.
My book tastes have personally changed a lot too, as the years have gone on. This past year has been particularly interesting as I've grown to love authors like Sarah Dessen and branched out from the fantasy world dramatically. I barely even read fantasy novels anymore it seems.
Writing novels has also seriously given me a new appreciation for books. I read slower, for one thing, and try to relish the book instead of read as many books as I can. I've found this to be really lovely. I'm receiving way more from what I read, which I wholly appreciate. I've also found that when I read slower and actually enjoy the details, say a fight scene or a romance, I get so much more from the book. I'm able to respond to it more as a reader and understand what I've read differently than when I just rush through it. Books like Harry Potter are excellent examples. They're so rich and lush in details, and reading them time and time again is an enjoyable experience because of that.
So what say you? Books, what makes them special, and your reading styles? 🙂

Characters are most important to me. Then a good story, and good writing, too. I dont' think you can have good characters w/o good writing, though…
I read very quickly, and I read an average of one book a day. I read a wide variety of fiction – contemporary, classic, comedic, dramatic, fantasy – and non-fiction that sounds interesting, educational, and/or unique.
Books that teach me something about life or the way I live it — or books that tell a satisfying story. Books that are real and believable. That's the kind of "special" I look for.
Dunno. I just like to read. Pretty much anything and everything. And it seems that the thicker the book is the more I like it and want to read it.
And I seem to like to write in incomplete sentences. Or ones that run on incessantly.

The Kashmiri struggle has turned into a new intifada recently when youth, children and even Kashmiri women took to the streets, armed with stones—the weapons of the oppressed civilians against tyrants—braving death.
The Indian military has used every tactic and means, ranging from bullets to curfews to sealing off the territory, in order to restrain and silence the voice of Kashmiris from reaching the world. There is a whole new dimension to this civilian uprising as it is an exact replica of what the Palestinians are doing against the aggression of Israel. Thousands of women, children, students and common men are part of this rebellion that has unnerved New Delhi completely. This is the Kashmiri intifada. Some news agencies and locals through the internet and other alternate media are highlighting the happenings on the streets in IHK. These news reports have created serious PR and diplomatic problems for India. The traditional Indian claim, that Pakistan is responsible for harboring and launching the "terrorists" in Kashmir to cause unrest and rebellion has blown to tatters. With the entire population of unarmed native Kashmiris on the streets against the Indian occupation, New Delhi is running out of ideas to ebb the current uprising. This movement has destroyed the morale of the Indian forces, as with every passing moment a new story of brutality is popping up in the media.
Historically, Pakistan remained the primary source of strength, support, aspiration and encouragement for the Kashmiris' struggle for freedom and desired to join Pakistan as Kashmiris of Azad Jammu & Kashmir did after getting independence. The Kashmiri freedom fighters used to get their strength and courage from the events of 1948 war between Pakistan and India when a new born, fragile and militarily weak Pakistan decided to fight against the Indian illicit occupation of Kashmir and liberated 37% of the valley. Joining Pakistan has remained the ultimate dream of the Kashmiri generations since 1947. But like everything else, 9/11 and Pakistan's policies
Pakistani leadership engrossed with trivial domestic political considerations, and vested interests, is almost totally oblivious of the happenings across the borders. In fact security of the State is not their concern. This column relates to a Machiavellian conspiracy being hatched by India to deflect the ongoing indigenous freedom movement in IHK, cause commotion in AJK and to give a new sinister dimension to its orchestrated propaganda against Pakistan as being a State which harbours terrorism. Having spent a couple of weeks in gathering information from various quarters and knowledgeable sources, I am certain that this time Indian RAW with the backing of its foreign partners is going to put Pakistan really in a difficult situation, where it would be somewhat impossible for it to get out. The objective of the RAW's sinister plan is to force Islamabad and the APHC leadership in IHK to bow down before New Delhi.
The conspiracy, for which preparatory work has been completed in all respects, is the formation of a fake group of militants in the name of "Kashmiri Taliban" that will be launched under the guidance of Indian National Security Advisor's Office. This would be heavily funded from secret fund while arms and ammunition would be arranged from Afghanistan, mainly of the Russian origin instead of Indian manufactured items to prove that the Kashmiri Taliban have surfaced on the pattern of Tehrik-i-Taiban Pakistan, with the backing of TTP and Afghan Taliban.
Those having information about the conspiracy divulged limited information but from several other sources I have gathered that this so-called Kashmiri Taliban group is openly to support an Independent Kashmir which, they would claim, should include Gilgit-Baltistan and Aksai Chin. The objective of this demand would not only be to create an impression in Pakistan that Kashmiris are no longer interested to join Pakistan but also to create some misunderstanding with our time tested friend China. Attacks by this group would also create anti-Kashmiri feelings inside Pakistan.
Sources revealed that the group would be tasked first to launch a few mock attacks inside India to establish its credibility and then carry out a series of devastating attacks inside Azad Kashmir and even in Pakistan in the name of Islamic Army of Kashmiri Taliban (IAKT) on the pattern of banned TTP. The whole purpose is to create the situation like FATA where the Taliban enjoy control before the launching of a final military operation in IHK.
Another benefit to India would be to seek the support of the United States and other Western countries under the pretext that Kashmiris, Pakistanis and Afghan Taliban are chips of the same block and they need to be crushed simultaneously. It is an open secret that ever since 9/11 developments, India has been trying its level best both through diplomatic offensive and media onslaught to equate Kashmiri freedom movement with terrorism. This is because the world today is focused on the issue of terrorism considering it as the biggest threat to the security of the globe. Pakistan following an ostrich like approach has failed to establish that in fact India itself is indulging in State terrorism in IHK. Luckily, there is now growing realization among the international community that the renewed Kashmiri Intifada is totally indigenous. So by creating Kashmiri Taliban, Indians would be trying to give a new dimension to the entire issue so as to win the sympathy of the world.
According to some sources, RAW's plans to deal with the Taliban were also discussed with some US officials who accompanied President Barack Obama during his visit to India from November 6 to 8. Manmohan Singh had impressed upon President Obama that unless Pakistan was forced to act against Kashmiri militant groups "inside Pakistan" and the US plays a direct and bold role to crush all Kashmiri militants, it would not be possible for India to work in a broader strategic cooperation with the Western world.
It was in this perspective that officials of the two countries debated the issue in detail and agreed upon the intelligence sharing on the basis of "counter terrorism" initiative signed in July 2010. Cooperation will be broadened between the American Homeland Security and Indian Home Department. To seek sympathies of the Americans, Indian officials also handed over a fake list of two dozen alleged training centres in Pakistan and Azad Kashmir for Kashmiri freedom fighters. The Indian side repeated the old propaganda that ISI was actively supporting and training Kashmiri and other Taliban and urged the US officials to take hard line and use all possible means to force Pakistan to close the training network.
The US officials reportedly expressed their limitations over exerting too much pressures on Pakistan. However Obama reportedly urged Manmohan Singh to work in close coordination with the Western strategic interests in order to gain the long-term benefits. Sources were of the view that there was no consensus between Obama and Manmohan Singh on how to tackle the issue of Kashmir but American President did link the resolution of the decades old problem through peaceful means. However, on the sidelines, American security officials and Indian officials did reach an accord to jointly work on a long-term plan to crush militants' network in the region as part of their counter-terrorism cooperation.
Under this tacit approval by the Americans to crush the militants, Indian occupation forces in IHK would get free hand to crush the indigenous freedom struggle with an iron hand, under the pretext that Kashmiri Taliban were active with the backing of Afghan Taliban and TTP in IHK and if New Delhi succeeded in this conspiracy, the US and its allies would lose faith in Pakistan. This would marginalize Pakistan and remove pressure on India to sit on the negotiating table and resolve the decade old dispute with Pakistan in line with the aspirations of the Kashmiri people for peace and stability in the region. Indian Intelligence officials believe that with the launching of this new outfit, Pakistan will be forced to act against suspected Kashmiris and particularly Lashkar-e-Tayyaba group and lead to arrest of the Kashmiris wanted in India. On the other hand, Indian agents in Pakistan also plan to wipe out some of the known targets and would plant stories in Pakistani and international media that ISI is behind the attacks. Few such disguised attacks or assassinations might convince the Kashmiri militants that Pakistan had finally turned against them.
I would like to emphasize that according to my information it is a well-conceived and dangerous move, with input from Israel and would be handled masterly with the help of Indian and Western media that miss no opportunity of Pakistan-bashing.
Pakistan would this be in a difficult position to defend the onslaught by Indian Government with the backing of powerful and aggressive media. Therefore I would warn the relevant authorities to consider it as a wake-up call and take appropriate measures to deflate the conspiracy by taking on board the United States and Western countries before it is translated into a reality. The young and vibrant Prime Minister of AJK Sardar Attique Ahmad Khan too would have to do some loud thinking because he would be one of the prime targets of the "Kashmiri Taliban.
India has a contaminated history of interfering into the internal affairs of all its neighbors. Driven by its hegemonic mindset to emerge as the unchallenged power of South Asia, India has all along striven to force South Asian states to accept Indian hegemony and never hesitated from resorting to economic strangulation or political blackmail or even naked force to achieve its nefarious designs.
Other than adopting coercive and Chanakyan tactics, its infamous RAW has been indulging in series of battles of intrigues and secret wars to subvert and destabilize South Asian states in consonance with foreign policy objectives of India.. Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh, Maldives, Sikkim, Bhutan, Tibet and Myanmar are its victims of machinations. After identifying vulnerabilities of target country it subtly accentuates political polarization, ethnic and sectarian strife and sense of deprivation among backward provinces. With the help of cultivated criminal and anti-state elements it foments subversion, terrorism and sabotage.
After creating Bangladesh in 1971, RAW continued with its covert operations in the newborn country by injecting dissension among political parties, religious sects and armed forces. It instigated Chakmas in Chittagong Hills against the regime, trained and equipped the rebels and supported their insurgency. It also created and trained Shanti Bahini to carryout subversive activities. RAW had a hand in assassination of Gen Ziaur Rehman in 1981, who was pro-Pakistan and unfavorably disposed towards secularism. Sikkim, Nepal and Bhutan being landlocked were coerced and made totally dependent on India through machinations of RAW.
RAW was instrumental in creating LTTE. India had not forgiven Colombo for allowing Pakistani aircraft and ships to use its ports for transporting war needs to the beleaguered Pak troops in East Pakistan. LTTE was a lifelong cancer given by India to Sri Lanka to keep the government compliant. Huge amounts were pumped in for stoking Tamil insurgency which simmered for almost three decades. Sri Lankan forces were fortunate to ultimately crush Tamil Tigers in August 2009 and restore normalcy in restive Jaffna Peninsula. In 1998, RAW orchestrated an attack on Maldives and then dispatched an expeditionary force to help the beleaguered President Gayoom. Idea was to project India as the policeman of the region. RAW has been abetting armed insurrections in Nepal to create internal strife and conflicts and compel Nepalese government to buy Indian weaponry to control trouble. Maoists were instigated to rebel so as to give India an excuse to intervene militarily under the garb of controlling insurrection. Nepal economy is wholly in the hands of Indian moneylenders and business magnates.
India has gone to war with Pakistan three times since Pakistan is its chief adversary and a stumbling block in the way of its expansionist designs. For the fulfilment of its evil plan of cutting Pakistan to size, RAW was created in 1968 and mandated to subvert the eastern province and to create conditions favourable for launching military instrument. It played a key role in poisoning the minds of Bengalis and in straining east-west relations and making East Pakistan chaotic. After cutting Pakistan into two, RAW continued with its subversive activities in other parts of Pakistan and has struck its foundations repeatedly. In league with KGB and KHAD, it lent support to Baloch insurgents in Balochistan in 1970s. Failing to achieve any success, RAW shifted its attention towards Sindh and by end of 1980s succeeded in creating deep-seated antagonism between rural and urban Sindhis and making the whole province volatile. It succeeded in enrolling an extensive network of agents and in inculcating ideas of separatism. Throughout Afghan war, RAW in conjunction with KGB, KHAD and Al-Zulfiqar, indulged in sabotage and subversion to destabilize Pakistan. Victory of Mujahideen in Afghanistan and demise of Soviet Union caused a major setback to Indian plans. Military operation in Sindh in 1992 followed by police action in Karachi in 1995-1996 checkmated ulterior Indian designs. To add to their woes, acquisition of nuclear capability by Pakistan minimized option of open war.
9/11 paved the way for RAW to conduct covert operations against Pakistan in league with CIA, MI-6, RAAM and Mossad. It is using Afghan soil for carrying out massive terrorist activities against Balochistan, FATA and Swat. Zahidan too is being used for destabilisation of Balochistan. From India, only Shahgarh-Kishangarh route is under use to supply arms to dissidents in rural Balochistan. Short but focused operation in Balochistan took the heat out of Baloch insurgency. Full-fledged military operation in Bajaur and in Swat in July-August 2008 and again in Malakand Division in April 2009 defeated RAW sponsored militants posing as Taliban. Operation Rah-e-Rast has taken the wind out of sails of Indian plans and it is still licking its wounds.
After collecting concrete evidence of RAW's involvement in all restive areas of Pakistan, PM Gilani handed over the dozier to Manmohan Singh at Sharm el Sheikh. Latter rather than feeling ashamed had the audacity to stick to Indian standpoint of bringing culprits of Mumbai attacks to book and dismantling terrorist network in Pakistan. It is over 10 months and Indians are still shedding copious tears over the incidence in which lone witness Kasab captured under dubious circumstances authenticates Indian woven story. As against the dozier provided by Pakistan, information fed by India is full of loopholes. It has nastily made resumption of composite dialogue conditional to acceptance of its illegal demands.
RAW is also responsible for indulging in disinformation campaign and launching bogus websites. It is also confusing ground situation in Kashmir so as to keep world's attention away from gross human rights violations in Indian-occupied Kashmir. RAW is unable to digest that 20 years junior ISI has overtaken it in terms of efficiency and output. Feeling outclassed and outwitted, ISI has become prime target of RAW's intrigues. The ISI is considered to be an impediment in RAW's operations and has been made a target of intense villification campaign. The tirade against ISI continues unabated since it thwarts RAW's thrusts. Purpose is to keep ISI on the defensive by alleging that it has had a hand in supporting Kashmiri mujahideen, Lashkar-e-Taiba and Taliban. RAW's fixation on ISI has taken the shape of ISI-phobia, as in India everyone traces the origin of all happenings and shortcomings to the ISI. Whenever and wherever there is a kidnapping, a bank robbery, a financial scandal, a bomb blast, or what have you, the ISI is deemed to have had a hand in it.
While hypocritically accusing Pakistan of terrorism, RAW has been indulging in terrorism in Pakistan since 1968 at a massive scale. Dozens of RAW agents killed and arrested in Swat, FATA and Punjab in recent months and seizure of Indian origin explosives, ammunition and Indian currency testify foolproof involvement of India in covert operations. Even USA has now hesitatingly advised India to trim Indian consulates in Jalalabad, Mazar-e-Sharif and Kandahar notorious for RAW's clandestine activities against Pakistan.
Taking into account rules framed for terrorism, RAW stands qualified to be declared a rogue and a terrorist outfit playing havoc in entire South Asia against all its neighbors. It is a treacherous organisation which excels in falsehood and in art of manufacturing concocted dramas to blackmail neighbors, prepare excuses to wage a war or to apply economic sanctions against landlocked countries. Its hands are soaked in blood of thousands of innocent victims. It is solely responsible for keeping South Asia backward which in turn has given rise to extremism in the region. Aggrieved South Asian states should collectively take up a case with UN and asked to deliver justice. If it can pass resolutions against Islamic fundamentalist groups, it should do so in case of non-Muslim rogue outfit as well without discrimination.. RAW must be fully exposed as a rogue and terrorist outfit.
India harbors a delusion that one day Kashmir dispute would stand eroded beyond recognition. There are no indicators that it would happen that way. History tells us that the disputes cannot be shied away; ultimately they have to be resolved. Over the recent months, Kashmir conflict has indeed become an eye catcher for a number of individuals, states and international institutions. Current unease in IHK, which has claimed more than 100 lives, is very different from the previous uprisings. It is largely a home grown non-violent political movement being propelled exclusively by local Kashmiri youth. Youngsters have put Kashmir's resistance on the internet. A decade ago Indian troops could cordon off Kashmir, yet stay unnoticed; now their atrocities are being observed online 24/7. As international pressure is incrementally mounting on India, her frustration is snowballing. There are no signs of the situation in Kashmir returning to normal. There are ominous indicators that IHK State government is resorting to strong-arm strategy to suppress a genuine political movement of the estranged masses to smother the voice of political dissent. Policy pursued by the Indian state for over two decades from early 1990s onward may soon be back in full swing. This would invariably add an element of militancy to the movement. During the 2009 session of UN General Assembly, President Qaddafi highlighted the disputed nature of Kashmir, though from his own perspective; Libya has since then been sponsoring follow-up actions in support of its Kashmir theme.
