Something I haven't done in a while
So just to get back into it, I'm going to make some predictions and offer some insights, which may not be very insightful at all. I'll write one thought for a player (or three) at each position.
Kenji Johjima is looking to surpass everyone's expectations this year. The man they call JoeMama hit home runs in his first two games, and has looked decent at the plate since. He hasn't walked or struck out excessively, but he's come up with timely hits, and the Mariners seem to like how he calls the game.
First Base
I think Justin Morneau can contend for the AL home run title. I know Papi, Manny, Mark Texeira and A Rod are formidable competition, but when Morneau hits, he hits very very hard. Another homer tonight gives him four on the year, and it still looks like he's in Spring Training mode to me. At least that's what the 8 K's and 0 BB's tells me (as I write this, he finally draws a walk). Morneau will K 100 to 120 times a season, but I do expect him to walk more. Once his contact rates increase, I expect the balls to really start flying out of the park.
Second Base
Marcus Giles is really taking to leading off. His average has dropped in the last couple of games due to a quad injury, but Giles has walked 11 times already. It took him until May 9th last year to draw as many walks. He did great in Spring Training, walking in something like 7 straight plate appearances, and he's apparently brought the same mindset into the regular season.
It looks like Edgar Renteria really needed to get back to the NL. He has hit in all of Atlanta's games, with more walks (3) than strikeouts (1). It is a small sample, but Renteria didn't draw a walk until the 11th game last season. I still don't really like how he looks in the field, but I am convinced that he was overwhelmed by Boston and the AL.
Third Base
Mike Lowell has hit a few wallballs already, and the Red Sox are just playing their second home game tonight. My only prediction for Lowell is that he's going to have an extreme home/road split this year. I don't know if his average will stay up, but I think he'll play much better at home than on the road this year. I can't say I'm positive, but it's a hunch.
Oh, Jeff Francoeur. Pitchers have just been abusing him this year. He's striking out once a game, making poor contact, and has in general just been frustrated by his pitch selection. I think he'll come around, but at this point, it might be worth sitting him for two or three days, letting him see some pitches in batting practice, and then letting him get a fresh start. Right now he looks tired and angry, and that's not a very good mindset to take to the plate. Someone made the preseason prediction that Langerhans and Kelly Johnson would have higher batting averages this year than Francoeur, and it's looking like a very prescient statement at this point.
I don't really care that Nomar is hurt. I like Olmaedo Saenz anyway. But if JD Drew stays healthy, I can see the Dodgers winning the NL East. Their offense has been clicking, and I think the pitching will come around. Derek Lowe and Jae Seo won't be dismal the entire year.
The Red Sox could potentially start the worst fielding outfield in the history of baseball. They could theoretically start Manny, Wily Mo, and Trot Nixon all at the same time. I know Mohr will play center, and Wily Mo and Trot should be platooning, but it could happen.
Starting Pitching
It frightens me a little that we haven't heard any more about Zack Greinke. Either the Royals are just done with him, or he has seriously psychological issues. I suppose both could be true.
Greg Maddux will win more than 15 games this year.
Relief Pitching
Matt Wise will be the best middle relief pitcher in the AL this year. He made hitters look idiotic last year, and it looks like the trend won't stop anytime soon.
That's all I got for now.
Oh, and how has Adrian Beltre stolen 3 bases this season? He stole 3 all of last year and 7 the year before. Is no one watching him, or are the opposing catchers just that horrible?

Despite Tuesday's failure to capture radical Palestinian leaders mistakenly thought to be aboard an intercepted Libyan jet, Israel will not hesitate to take similar initiatives against terrorists in the future, Prime Minister Shimon Peres said today.
"If someone tries to impose terrorism on us, we will not hesitate to react on land, sea or in the air," he said in a speech to the World Zionist Federation.
Israel had hoped that several Palestinian terrorists would be aboard the plane, which was flying from Tripoli, Libya, to Damascus when it was intercepted over the Mediterranean by two Israeli warplanes and forced to land in northern Israel.
But the specific target of the operation, Peres told a closed-door parliamentary committee meeting yesterday, was Ahmed Jibril, leader of the Syrian-based Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command.
According to defense correspondents in today's Hebrew-language press, three jets had taken off at about the same time Tuesday from Tripoli, where radical Palestinian and Arab groups had held a two-day meeting. While some Palestinian leaders had boarded one of the planes, the reports said, quoting military sources, Israeli intelligence failure had led to the interception of the wrong one. The downed jet was carrying Syrian and Lebanese officials and politicians, who were released with the plane after being held for several hours.
But apparently none of the planes was carrying Jibril, who gave a news conference last night in Tripoli. Jibril threatened retaliation against U.S. and Israeli civilian airliners for the interception.
A spokesman for El Al said the Israeli airline was taking no extra precautions beyond normally strict security measures. He noted that El Al's flight paths are a long way from Libya, and said that the immediate area around Israel was well protected by its Air Force.
Israel's Foreign Ministry has launched an information campaign, through guidelines issued to its diplomatic missions abroad, explaining the rationale behind the failed operation. Noting that intelligence information had indicated that the plane was carrying terrorists who were planning attacks or had been involved in past attacks against Israel, the guidelines indicated that Israel had intended to put the Palestinian captives on trial here.
The decision to intercept the Libyan executive jet apparently was made by Peres and Defense Minister Yitzhak Rabin, without consulting the rest of the Cabinet. Police Minister Haim Bar-Lev said today that the Cabinet often has discussed methods of fighting terrorism, but that the question of handling captured terrorist leaders was not part of those discussions.

Whenever any one, in any situation, regardless of the time, current temperature or your mood, offers you ice cream, heed this message – "never say no." It has to be a way of life, consuming ice cream. I don't get how people brush it off saying, 'oh it's not my thing' or 'it's too cold for that' – seriously!? What lame excuses of depriving oneself of such heavenly nutrition.
And so this evening, I gladly said 'yes' when offered ice cream and had a quick glance at the tub – Dreyer's Vanilla Chocolate Chip. Not one of my usual flavours, but remember, you never say no. So tucked right into it.
It was incredibly creamy, and cooling as Dreyer's tends to melt pretty quickly. I liked the smooth chocolate chips that were shaped like teardrops. Perfect way to the day- ice cream, friends and a movie.

Happy April!! And April Fool's!
To be honest we forgot about April Fool's day... but o-well. The beginning of this week was actually pretty frustrating. Literally no one wanted to meet with us. We had been making goals to be able to be more obedient and work hard, but then nothing seemed to be working out. On the way home from FHE on Monday Brat Komo drove us home in his Marshrutka. When we dropped Brat Dmitir off another girl tried to get on. He really wasn't working but decided to let her on.... Perfect opportunity for us to get her!! haha Us and Brat Komo and one other girl. She had no idea that she was trapped by all Mormon's! Well, we talked to her and gave her an invitation, but she didn't pass along her number... o-well!
Nothing seemed to be working out... but then suddenly this week SO many people came out of the woodwork and we were able to meet with so many new people! One day for companionship study I decided to practice teaching about the priesthood, as that is not one of my strong points. The priesthood is such a deep principle and hard to explain to people. We always try to explain it very simply and emphasize that we need that same power that Jesus gave his apostles in order to be able to be baptized as Jesus Christ was baptized. That night we had a lesson with a family that we had found in the area book. As we were talking we started talking about the priesthood. I turned to Sister Whitaker and said... "it's a good thing that I practiced teaching this this morning." As I talked I could feel the Holy Ghost guiding my thoughts and what I needed to say. Explaining the priesthood suddenly just felt so clear with the scriptures that came to mind, and they seemed to understand. I knew that I had been helped so much to be able to explain the priesthood. After Sister Whitaker said that she had been praying for me as I explained that principle... and I needed it!
The family we met from the area book is an Armenian family. But the mom doesn't understand everything that we say in Russian. Her Russian is good, but we use words that she doesn't know and she uses words that we don't know... so many times we have our dictionary out and it's always fun to share a scripture... find it in Russian and then try to find it in Armenian. She is meeting with another church right now and working with them to get baptized. Her husband doesn't really believe in God, but she wants her family to be united. When we met with them he was involved and had some good questions. We hope to see them move along this week. Nona, the mom, understands about priesthood, but doesn't understand that it can only be found in one church. They have the cutest kids too!! Oh my goodness!! the little girl Sonya is SO cute and a sassy little model!! :) She demonstrated her model walks for us! SO CUTE!! The son Gor showed us his yoyo and tried to show me how to do it! They are such a neat family and we already love them.
On the way to district meeting this week we were riding in a Marshrutka with people all around. I knew I needed to talk with someone and so I started talking with the lady next to me. She talked SO loud!!! She asked where we were from and I responded America, and then she yelled, "from America?!!!" So, by this time pretty much the whole Marshrutka was listening. I knew I shouldn't be embarrassed, and then she proceeded to ask us what we are doing her. The lady across from us kept looking up and smiling and pretty much everyone on the Marshrutka could hear. It was so funny! Then at this one stop this younger girl gets on. As there were no seats she ended up standing up right in front of where this lady and I are sitting. (a marshrutka is like a big van with seats that kind of face each other in the middle and then another section in the back with facing seats) She turned to me and asked, "Are you missionaries?" I said yes. She then said that her uncle was a priest. The lady next to me went on to say that she didn't think it was right that we traveled around telling people about what we believe, but then this girl said, "Well, my uncle preaches to his congregation that they shouldn't just sit around. The savior himself said that we should go out and preach the gospel." haha!! The lady next to me kept saying she was just sharing her opinion and didn't want me to be offended! The younger girl Sasha said that she was SUPER interested to meet with us and gave us her number. I really hope that we can meet with her!
We have a lot going on here and are hoping to keep seeing the miracles! We went to the piano concert this week and Peotr plays SO amazingly!! We got to meet with him on Sunday and he brought his friend. They had apparently both met with the missionaries 5 years ago. We had a good time just getting acquainted and it was SO nice to talk with them because they have actually themselves studied and thought about many things. They talked about how the Bible had been translated so many times and how the churches often just take people's money.
Cectpa Cunningham
P.S. OH my goodness!! Tell Britt how much I love her and miss her!! and i better get to see here SUPER SOON after I get home!! Let Anne know too! I'd really like to see her!!

It's been nearly two months and I'm still showing you London. I wonder what I would do with a longer trip.
SkyWatch posts from around the world will be found linked at the SkyWatch site. It is amazing to see the variety, and yet the unity, among skies around the world and how we react to them.
The blue bits of sky among the clouds here look promising, but the second image gives a truer picture of what we could expect that day, and indeed, before the day was over we would duck into a Thai restaurant along Fleet Street for a long dinner to avoid the cloudburst.

I love the cream and white theme. Very sophisticated color palette and a nice change from all of the pastels at Easter. LOVE the chicks in the cage from Pier 1. They really add something to the table. I am looking forward to the finished product.
As for the placemat or tablecloth, I think the tablecloth sounds a bit more formal; I might enjoy the placemats more. I think something with some texture would be nice for the placemats since you are keeping the color scheme simple.

August, 2014
August seemed to fly by (and so has September now that this month is over!) with the Fair and Janet in town for her shower; but it was a month of nice family time around home in Indy.
Although, if I'm super honest, it might go down in the books as one of the hardest months of being a mom to a 2.5 year old with a 14 mo. old wild sister, just saying ;).
Gotta take the good with the bad though, right? And luckily they're too cute to boot!
A few pics from the month -
I caught this cowgirl shaking it -
We got ice cream in August of course, -
|She's in heaven!
|More treats - AJ was the sugar cookie taster for the shower!
|Bill wanted this job, let me tell you!
June loved keeping an eye out or dogs per usual-
And walking to her cousins' house with Addie in the stroller -
|These two trying to pose was hysterical!
Nana and aunt Lisa came to visit for a night and brought a big surprise -
|A rocking horse!
|They both LOVE it! Thanks, Nana, and aunt Theresa for painting it!
Junie really dug her shades -
And trips to Lowes - (which kind of became our thing to do if I needed to get them out of the house) -
We had a few trips to the museum (have I mentioned I love that we have a yearly pass??!!) -
|June was pretty pleased with herself on the carousel.
|They love the horses and the train to play on!
They also got to go to a Bishop Chatard Volleyball game with grandpa.
Addie was soooo scared of the "knight" mascot (it's a Trojan), that we had to shield her whenever he walked by. It was kind of funny.
|The shades were a good shield from the Trojan/knight.
|This is June at the park, every.single.time.
And last but not least, we finally got some ripe tomatoes at the end of August -
And they were a hit with June!
And that's a summer wrap!

Yesterday we took Ella to Hill Ridge Farms in Youngsville for pumpkin picking and a bunch of other fall farm activities. We went with our friends Amber and John and their daughter Ryanne, and the weather certainly played the part - it was really cool out and absolutely felt like fall!
Me and Captain Spooky before our adventure(check out the pigtails!)
Attempt at getting Ella to stand by the 'how tall are you' sign (no easy task)
Navigating the hay bale maze - aaah which way to go?!
This was a gazebo filled entirely with corn - kind of like a giant sand box but all corn. Steve took her in there and she loved it.
Checking out the goats with Ryanne and Amber
Looking at farm animals with Daddy
We rode on a train ride around the farm and Ella couldn't believe her good fortune in how much fun she had on that train ride! She was very excited and here she is waving to people at the station as we pulled out
So much fun!
We took a hayride to get out to the pumpkin patch
As you can probably imagine, a hayride is really just almost too much fun for a little girl - she had to stand up, face the outside, and yell in delight almost the whole time...
Interestingly, it was not really a pumpkin farm in that the pumpkins do not grow there, they are shipped in from somewhere. So they had laid them out in long rows so that it looked like a real patch. Ella was clearly impressed and here she is trying to pick the perfect pumpkin!
Running around the pumpkins with Ryanne
So many pumpkins, so little time
Got mine!!
Won't let go of that pumpkin!
Getting sleepy, relaxing on a swing with Daddy
It was such a fun trip, a perfect 'fall-is-here' kind of day!

A Little Linux Praise
Have you ever had a hard drive go bad, covered in bad sectors, losing all your data? If so I truly sympathize with you. I have been through more hard drives than I care to remember, lost to bad sectors. Thankfully Linus and friends thought about this problem and have dealt with it very effectively.
The way that Windows deals with bad sectors is to scan the surface of the drive, mark sectors as 'bad' and then 'avoid' them while writing and reading data. Regardless of the effort exerted by the more popular operating system, it fails to find a good solution to this problem. This cycle consists of marking the bad sectors then failing to totally avoid using those sectors, resulting in increased bad sectors and data loss. There is nothing more frustrating than to sit there and watch as the contents of your hard drive are wiped away.
In my Linux system I currently have a Western Digital 4.3 GB hard drive that contains 20 or so bad sectors. These were discovered when I ran Scandisk on that drive via Windows 95. At first there was one, but soon more and more developed. I was eventually forced to partition part of the drive off, because of the damage. Finally, a friend told me that Linux dealt with bad sectors practically flawlessly, which I was soon to discover myself.
I have been running Linux on that particular hard drive for around 5 months now. I have not lost any data, the operating system runs perfectly, and I have not had to worry about more bad sectors surfacing. I truly thank the developers for designing Linux in such a way, for it has been a true savior to my dying hard drive.
If you have any stories, or problems to tell of your hardware and Linux, as a new user, please feel free to e-mail me, Craig Bamford, and tell me about them. I am constantly learning and I would like to learn from your experiences as well as my own. Once again, I thank you for your continued attention, and I hope to continue bringing you tales of the New User.

Yep, all words were spelled correctly. Soooo, why did I put that in my title? Editing.
We all know spell-check can only aid us in our craft so much; the rest is on us lowly humans. This morning there was quite a fun conversation on Facebook started by Al Boudreau. Can you guess the topic? Yep...editing. The question of the morning (sorry, I'm not going to link to his personal FB page) was how to improve the image of Indie/Self-published work through editing.
There were quite a few great suggestions, which is what really got me thinking about this morning's blog. The first one I'll list is self-editing. Now, if you're anything like me you edit as you write, go back through each chapter as you complete it, then go through the book three to four times before releasing it into the world. And, again if you're like me, you miss several glaring mistakes. (I once used 'waste' instead of 'waist'. Kind of changes the whole theme.)
So, how does one go about hiring an editor? There is always the expensive way - search the websites. I don't know about you, but as a starving author I don't have several hundred dollars sitting around in a bank.
Another option is an English student, or even retired teacher. They'll usually work for for way less.
Or what about those editors just starting out? They're always willing to lower their prices in return for testimonial and credits.
If you're not really wanting to pay (or like me don't have an outside job), the next best option is Beta readers. What is a beta reader, you ask? A beta reader is someone, usually another writer or avid reader, who can read through your manuscript and look at it with an unbiased eye. Face it, when you read your own work your eyes will trick you into seeing words that may or may not be there.
A beta reader can not only catch mistakes you may have missed, but they can help with content editing, as well. I made the mistake of not having a content editor with my very first completed novel. Even though I'd belonged to a crit group, and had a couple of friends read through it, no one wanted to tell me a couple of parts were....well, extremely cliched!
How about using a critique group? I do have to say, though, make sure this crit group is willing to rip your work apart in order to make you a better writer. You want to be a part of a group who is willing to say, "Uh, Christy...that's so dumb. You need to change it."
Okay, maybe you don't want someone to be that rough on your work, but you get the point. You need a group who will go through your book with a fine toothed comb to get rid of all the tangles.
Absolute Write there is a Share Your Work section for registered members. Don't worry, this site doesn't charge. But, you have to be registered to get the password for a couple of the forum groups. On the SYW thread you can post the first part of your work, chapter by chapter, and they will offer some great critiques.
Hopefully this post was helpful. Do you have some other ideas for perfecting your manuscript? Do you hire an editor with each book?

Prague Addick and one time Valley Party stalwart Richard Hunt has been campaigning hard on the question of West Ham's move to the Olympic Stadium which is seen as a threat to our support base in Kent.
West Ham are getting a very favourable deal at the expense of the taxpayer, so the issues go beyond Charlton. Richard Hunt brings us up to date with the latest position here: Olympic Stadium

Whether you soldiered through the technical stuff in part 1 or not, welcome to the fun part.[1]
In our first graph, we use the data to look at just the payroll and income taxes, that is, the taxes that can be directly attributable to households. That the data is presented below[2]
You'll quickly see in comparing the two graphs that something quite interesting has happened since 1970 in terms of how taxes are distributed. The line for 2004 is actually above the line for 1970 at most points across the line. The only places it is below is at the very top of the distribution and for most of the bottom half. This is not surprising as effective income and payroll tax rates in total are actually higher in 2004 than they were in 1970. The second thing you will notice is that the absolute magnitude of change is largest at the bottom of the income distribution. For the P20-40 group, the effective income and payroll tax rate today is only half as high as it was in 1970. Yes, the rates are lower for the top 0.1 percent but the magnitude of the change is by far the largest at the bottom of the distribution.
So to the degree that one would want to argue that income and payroll taxes have become less progressive since 1970, one could only be focusing on the fact that tax rates for the top 0.1% have gone down. Visually, it is quite difficult to argue that the red line is less progressive than the blue line despite this fact. One way to look at this is the ratio of the P20-40 group's tax rates to the P99.99-100 group. In 1970, this ratio was 2.1. By 2004, it had increased to 3.8, hardly a signed of declining progressivity.
It is important to remember that most discussions of the Federal tax code focus on income and payroll tax rates and therefore an understanding of this graph is quite important as one considers proposals in those areas.
It is important to remember that most discussions of the Federal tax code focus on income and payroll tax rates and therefore an understanding of this graph is quite important as one considers proposals in those areas.
Adding imputed corporate taxes changes the picture a bit. Now the answer to whether the tax code has become more or less progressive depends a bit on where you want to look. Were we to focus on the bottom 99 percent of the population, we'd conclude that the tax code has become more progressive. Rates have declined for the bottom part of the distribution and increased from the 80th to the 99th percentile. Rates have also decreased from the 99th to the 100th percentile, and dramatically so at the top. And yet, the ratio we constructed in the first chart between the second quintile (P20-40) and the very top of the distribution is 2.8 in 1970 and 3.7 in 2004, indicating that progressivity, at least by that measure, is increasing even with the sharp reduction in rates on the top income earners.
All of which brings us back to the final chart, the most suspect chart because of the issues with the allocation of the estate tax. I would note however, that even in that case, the progressivity index goes from 4.03 in 1970 to 3.96 in 2004, not exactly a massive change in progressivity. And we still see that the only people who are paying higher taxes today than they were in 1970 are the people between the 80th and the 99th percentiles.
It is also worth looking back at the original chart from the first post again. On that chart, you'll see lines drawn by year as opposed to using the end point but you won't see the horizontal data series so that chart masks the fact that tax rates have declined dramatically for the 20-40 percentile group and that rates have increased from the 80-99 percentile group. Another reason why it is good to go back to the base data. You get to see all of the data and not just some of it.
What are we to make of all this. Personally, I take away three conclusions:
- The Federal tax code has become more progressive over the last 40 years. I draw this from an assessment of the any of the graphs above but particularly the ones excluding the estate tax that, in my view, cannot be fairly allocated given the issues with incidence. Any decrease in progressivity can only be argued at the absolute top (e.g., 99.99+ percentile) of the income distribution.
- There is a case to be made for increasing taxes at the top of the income distribution (somewhere between the top 1 percent and the top .5 percent) given the decline in tax rates on this group. This probably should come through higher levels of taxation on capital income, particularly capital gains. A movement in the capital gains tax rate from 15 to 20 percent would likely address much of the change in tax rates up to the top 0.1% of the income distribution. While this case is real, it relies on the notion that the 1970 effective rates are an appropriate baseline.
- There is an equally strong (perhaps stronger) case to be made that taxes at the bottom of the income distribution should be increased as the decline in tax rates in the bottom half of the distribution has been larger than any group outside of the top 0.1%.
1Tax incidence is a complex subject and is yet another area where you need to see the data behind the chart in order to understand it. Without going back to the source, you'd never know.
[1] The source data for all of this is Piketty and Saez, "How Progressive is the U.S. Federal Tax System? A Historical and International Perspective", Journal of Economic Perspectives—Volume 21, Number 1—Winter 2007—Pages 3–24. Throughout this post, I use the 1970 and 2004 end points. There are three reasons for this. The conceptual reason is that both 1970 and 2004 are after the Medicare and Medicaid programs were instituted whereas 1960 is before and therefore less directly comparable. The practical reason is that Piketty and Saez do not present in tabular form the data for any of the other years. In addition, the total Federal tax rate in the 1970 and 2004 series are nearly identical, increasing the focus on changes in the rates driven by distribution as opposed to average rate increases or decreases.
[2] Two analytical methods are applied to the original Piketty and Saez tabular data. Starting from the data set in table 2 which reports total tax rates by quintile and subsets of the top quintile, estate tax rates and corporate tax rates from tables 3a and 3b were subtracted to get data excluding the estate tax and both the estate tax and corporate tax. Since the estate and corporate tax data are reported only for the 0-90 percentile band, each group within this band was assumed to pay at the same rate. While this introduces error into the analysis, the error is small because estate and corporate tax rates for these groups are small. Any error would tend to overstate the tax rates of those at the lower end of the spectrum relative to those at the upper end of the 0-90 spectrum.

The differences that exist between the Spanish spoken in Spain and the one spoken in Mexico are no greater than we could find if we compare American and British English. There are without doubt nuisances and colloquialisms that are particular to each country, but deviations similarly exist in regional areas within Mexico, or in Spain, or for that matter in any Latin American country.
As far as Mexico is concerned there are a variety of "lenguas indígenas" or indigenous languages that are spoken, but Spanish remains the official language. The rise of Spanish is of course tied to the Spanish conquest of the New World.
As a result of Mexico City's central role in the colonial administration of New Spain, the population of the city included relatively large numbers of speakers from Spain. Mexico City (Tenochtitlán) had also been the capital of the Aztec Empire, and many speakers of the Aztec language Nahuatl continued to be spoken there and in the surrounding region, outnumbering the Spanish-speakers for several generations.
Consequently, Mexico City tended historically to exercise a standardizing effect over the entire country, more or less, becoming a distinctive dialect of Spanish which incorporated a significant number of hispanicized Nahuatl words.
The Spanish of the Yucatán Peninsula is different from all the other forms of the language, both as far as the intonation and the incorporation of Mayan words is concerned, whilst the Spanish spoken in the areas that border Guatemala resembles the variation of Central America Spanish spoken in that country.
Interestingly those areas were originally part of the Audiencia of Guatemalan and only became part of Mexico after the wars of colonial independence; most of the southern state of Chiapas and Soconusco region did not become part of Mexico until the 1870s.
The migrations that took place in the 19th and the 20th century from Mexico to the United States have caused Mexican Spanish to become the most widely spoken variety of Spanish in the United States of America, except in the East Coast.
The Spanish spoken in the Gulf Coastal areas of Veracruz and Tabasco is also quite distinctive, at least at the level of vernacular speech, as the Spanish spoken there exhibits more Caribbean phonetic traits than that spoken in the remainder of Mexico. With more than a 100 million Spanish speakers, Mexico is numerically, the foremost Spanish speaking country in the world.

Ontario's Woodlot IndustryDecember 20, 2015
The woodlot industry is unique in many ways, it is limited to a certain area of Southern Ontario, it uses special trees and ownership is mainly private.
Ontario has 169,000 woodlot owners, with operations ranging from 4 to 3,000 ha.
Why an Expo in 2016?December 19, 2015
Because the Canadian forestry products industry is undergoing a long overdue - and expensive - transformation. Competition and technology are the two major factors driving this transformation but there are others.
PRESS RELEASEDecember 18, 2015 Spreading the news of these tremendously important developments is a role that can be strengthened through the Saw Tech Log Expo, which is planned for 2016 in Bancroft by Canadian Trade-Ex.This company has more than 20 years of successfully offering forestry and mining trade shows.Its publishing division offers two influential magazines, Forestry Life and Mining Life and Exploration News. There are over 2,000 manufacturers in Ontario producing value-added wood products. Furthermore, there are more than 1000 businesses associated with the value-added wood products.

Star Rise is finished!!
(Notes )
I used that leftover children's castle print that was so popular a few years ago
(I asked myself at the time:"Now, why did you buy this??--you'll NEVER use it!"
and it ended up Waaay in the back of my blue stash)--
and here, (amazing myself) I end up just LOVING how the people are all standing around the edges --watching the stars rise....;))) SWEET!!
I guess you just never know, and have to go with your gut....
the backing is just a couple of old, old fabrics...softened by time...
And, I ended up by tying this one..............................
with a light blue
DMC cotton
No. 8 , a lovely
**and I am happy I put in these "Love" strips for contrast...
just a couple...
And so my Star Rise journey is over--even labelled it....;)))
Would I make this one again?
(Actually I do have a few leftover blocks that will become something)
Well, I certainly would make another string quilt--whether or not this pattern,
maybe not, although it was a challenge and fun!!
I truly enjoy this kind of work...I didn't use any batting as the blocks were all
sewn on light muslin....so it is not too heavy...
I am having a celebratory drinkie and patting myself on the back--
("and another one bites the dust..." yeah, yeah, yeah!!)
hugs, Julierose, La Blageuse, (done-euse)

Bella is a vulture; a thief. She will eat almost anything and sometimes she'll steal your food right out if your hand or off your plate. No food is left unattended when Bella is around. As i just said, she'll eat ANYTHING and this is what has been causing stress in our house.
In the old house in the Arctic we had a cat door to basement and we kept the cat box down there. We didn't choose this location because of the dogs it was just out of the way and gave Brady some privacy (because you know cats need privacy too.) Here in the rental there is no cat door to the basement so the door has to either be open or be closed. Are you getting the idea yet??
While trying to relax yesterday afternoon Bella approached me and this overwhelming horrible smell came with her. I noticed she looked dirty... Oh how I wish it was just dirt. Bella took it upon herself to no only have a kitty litter buffet but to also remove it from the box and roll all in it! See why I wish it was just dirt?? She rolled in cat S#^t!!! Even though she had just been bathed by the vet students, back in the tub she went for a thorough lather, rinse and repeat (x2!!)
How can this sweet pup be so mischievous and gross??? No kisses for Bella yesterday.

Saturday, November 11, 1995
One man, one woman, the two became one flesh.
Surrendering to one another and legally binding themselves to one another until the day death separates them.
Before God and witnesses, to hold us accountable and legitimize the transaction.
The happy couple began their journey of life together as one; blissfully ignorant of life's hardships and blessings, and barely knowing anything at all. By the grace of God, still living happily ever after, and growing more in their love for one another each day!

''Five million barrels of porter'' (p. 140)
The Great Famine and Beyond: Irish Migrants in Britain in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries / Donald MacRaild
This is a timely and necessary book after nearly a quarter of a century during which a steady stream of specialist monographs and articles on Irish communities in individual British towns and cities has appeared.
This book is one of a series entitled The Making of Europe, which aims 'to address crucial aspects of European history in every field - political, economic, social, religious, and cultural' (p. xii).
Governance has replaced government as the object of fascination for political scientists. As the structures of the state are steadily dismantled so it has become necessary to look elsewhere for the seats of power and the means by which it is exercised.
Never mind the cover (lovely though it is). Readers who are fast to judge and slow to think will be tempted to judge this book by its title alone. What, they will want to ask, could Patrice Higonnet possibly mean by calling Paris 'capital of the world?' Does the world have a capital? Since when has it been located in Paris?
For a very long time, writers have sneered at the suburbs. They have looked down on suburbanites for being materialistic, unimaginative, and boring. They have complained about the social and physical monotony of the suburban scene while deploring its individualism and lack of community.
The Bristol Historical Resource CD includes over 30 individual contributions investigating different aspects of the history of the city. It also provides an updated version of the New Bristol Historical Bibliography, previously published in book format.
Cities in Modernity: Representations and Productions of Metropolitan Space, 1840-1930 / Richard Dennis
Richard Dennis' engaging book is about building bridges, both literal and metaphorical. It begins with a study of the construction of the Brooklyn Bridge in New York, Tower Bridge in London and the Bloor Street Viaduct in Toronto, using them as a means of highlighting the eclectic methodologies and theoretical approaches to be applied throughout the work.
This text book aims to cover 150 years of European history from a perspective which desperately needs coverage: the perspective of the city.
In the words of its author, this engaging book 'tells of the shadows of objects and of images in the brain and, as such, of the only realities that cannot entirely escape from appropriation' (p. ix). The object in question is Florence, understood both as a material place and as a mythical construction.

Queensland Universities event
On Monday 23 March 2015, Professor Martin Betts, Deputy Vice Chancellor (Engagement) represented Griffith University at a public lecture hosted by QUT on behalf of the nine Queensland University's who support the Racism. It Stops With Me campaign. The Race Discrimination Commissioner, Dr Tim Soutphommasane, addressed the audience on the national anti-racism campaign.
Community in a Time of Tension
On 21 October 2014, Griffith University Chaplaincy hosted the next in its Greater Understanding Series, with the topic Community in a Time of Tension. A panel consisting of an Imam, a Priest, and a member of the Jewish Board of Deputies fielded questions from students and staff about community tensions in the light of current world events. One of the main topics discussed was the need for all people to be able to exercise self-reflection within their faith and cultural communities, ie how can bad things be allowed to happen amongst and even at the hands of people of good will? And the need for greater understanding remains a constant.
Image above shows the panel members: (L to R) Reverend Geoff Hoyte, Rector of the Anglican Parish of Logan, Mr Ari Heber, Chair of the Qld Jewish Interfaith committee, Jewish Board of Deputies, Imam Yusuf Peer, Head of the Brisbane Islamic Council and Reverend Dr Russell Briese, Coordinator, Chaplaincy, Griffith University.
Queensland Cultural Diversity week
On 1 September 2014, Shane Pitman, Corporate Services Equity Champion and Alarna Lane-Mullins, Secretary to Equity Committee, hosted a morning tea for Corporate Services staff, to celebrate both the University's commitment to the Racism. It Stops with Me campaign, and Queensland Cultural Diversity week. The morning tea was a huge success, with over 50 staff learning about the campaign against Racism, and Griffith's support.
Launching our support
The University's support for the campaign was officially launched by Professor Martin Betts, Deputy Vice Chancellor (Engagement) at the August 2014 meeting of the University Equity Committee.

Salt Flat Speed leads wire to wire
Salt Flat Speed broke on top and never was seriously threatened en route to a 2 1/2-length victory over Shem in the $50,000 Spangled Jimmy at Northlands Park on Saturday.
Setting honest fractions of 24 seconds, 47.40, and 1:11.40 in the one-mile race, Salt Flat Speed took a 4 1/2-length lead into the stretch and under strong urging from Anthony Selgado, he was able to comfortably hold off Shem. Footprint made a late move to finish third. The final time was 1:37.40.
Trained by Jim Meyaar, Salt Flat Speed was sent off as the favorite in the five-horse field and paid $4.10.

Carpenters re-create entrance to Forbes Field - By Kevin Kirkland, Pittsburgh Post-GazetteIt's not a house, but it was home to Pirates, Grays, Steelers and Panthers.So when the Forbes Field working group was looking for someone to build a replica of the legendary field's entrance, the carpenters union was the first stop.At the union's apprentice training center on Neville Island, Rick Okraszewski and the other instructors usually work with apprentices on framing, trim and cabinet installation. The apprentices were much more excited about building Forbes Field.===========Plum man wants to share history - By Kevin Kirkland, Pittsburgh Post-GazetteMartin is the co-author of a book about the ballpark and designer of a replica of the arches that stands near the old outfield wall on Bouquet Street in Oakland. He gave the replica's builders, the carpenters union, drawings he had made of the plaques based on old photographs. But he had never seen one intact. Now he has seen two, or at least photographs of them.

What a confident 'strut' means( for you lame azz it means your walk). Also you realize how much of said 'strut' your self confidence is directly tied and projected!.. I vividly remember the effort on my end. I just didn't want to look goofy..sub-consciously, I never wanted to be taken as a joke unless I was joining in/telling one. The development of my walk came in phases of maturity . It started with my 1st. Puppy 🐶 "drunken love" and teenage WTF is this feeling?(I felt like Toby Maguire walking down the street in Spiderman 3.) Then as I got older, I watched and emulated my father with the patience of a sniper in a 'thousand yard stare.' He explain, I listened. Oh yeah I listened with a paint brush of a brain working the whole time. He made me understand why it was important to lift my head when I walked/spoke. "Dre"! I need you to walk with the pride of a four hundred year struggle. Perception in the world may be a reality if you allow it. I'm counting on you to become clarity in the fog. You need to swallow that bitter taste of America's view and get upset now, get it out of the way." He always insisted on awareness. Be aware and responsible of your PRESENCE when walking and your strength when standing..Perception...Own yours.. Don't allow society's "Don't shoot the messenger" and "future broadcasters" to dictate the "newest" version. Millennium Man and my 2cents worth. I'm OUT! #millennials#menslifestyle#dating#women#perceptionisreality#love#strength#men#pride#confidence

Uganda drops Anglican Mission in America
September 2, 2012
By George Conger
The Church of the Province of Uganda has withdrawn its ecclesial sponsorship for the Anglican Mission in America (AMiA).
Formed in 2000 as an American arm of the Church of the Province of Rwanda (PEAR) the AMiA under its leader Bishop Chuck Murphy split from PEAR last year. While many of the AMiA's congregations and two of its bishops have transferred to the jurisdiction of the Anglican Church in North America (ACNA), some have remained loyal to Bishop Murphy – joining him in temporary oversight from the Anglican Church of the Congo.
Earlier this month the remaining AMiA clergy received a letter from its headquarters in Pawleys Island, South Carolina asking that they choose one of two new canonical jurisdictions. In July Bishop Murphy, accompanied by his assistant the Rev. Canon Kevin Donlon, travelled to Africa to arrange alternative provincial oversight following the end of the Congo haven.
Last week the AMiA leader wrote that clergy may choose to affiliate with the Diocese of Bunyoro-Kitara of the Church of the Province of Uganda under Bishop Nathan Kyamanywa, or the Diocese of Dunkwa-on-Offin of the Church of the Province of West Africa in Ghana under Bishop Edmund Dawson Ahmoah. Clergy were allowed to choose which jurisdiction they wanted to enter, or the office in Pawleys Island would assign a jurisdiction. Clergy were asked to respond by 31 August. the rest
Okoh Inaugurates Missionary Diocese Of The Trinity In US
SUNDAY, August 19, 2012, was a memorable day in the history of the Anglican Communion Worldwide.
It was when the Primate of Church of Nigeria (Anglican Communion), Most Rev. Nicholas Okoh; the Primate of the Anglican Church in North America, Most Rev. Robert Duncan, accompanied by three Nigerian Archbishops (Most Rev. Olu Akinyemi, Most Rev. Ikechi Nwosu and Most Rev. Ignatius Kattey), and nine other Bishops, inaugurated a new diocese in North America.
The duly elected and consecrated Bishop of the Diocese, Rt. Rev Amos Akinseye Fagbamiye, was also enthroned at the Anglican Cathedral Church of the Resurrection, Indianapolis...

The Salomon and Perkins article, Do Technologies Make Us Smarter, poses the question of whether the tools we use actually make us smarter or just allow us to do more difficult tasks without really increasing our intellect. This is a difficult question. The article first addresses what it means to be smarter, "truly being smart is something not to be identified even in part with something like having a good flexible repertoire of cognitive strategies but rather with something deep in the fundamental mechanisms of cognition-say highly efficient neural processing." It is also helpful to think of becoming smarter using a performance view. Can the individual solve problems faster, can they work out highly complex situations, if so, they are probably becoming smarter.
With understanding what it means to be smarter, Salomon and Perkins investigate whether technology aides in becoming smarter. According to Salomon and Perkins using certain technologies can make us smarter through smarter performance. The article states, "cognitive technologies, technologies that enhance cognitive functioning through directly affording cognitive support rather than as a side effect" do make us smarter. It is also important to note that humans function alongside other tools and this distributed cognition does in fact make us smarter.
After reflecting on these sentiments, I agree with Salomon and Perkins point of view. For example, using an excel spreadsheet to solve a complex math equation means that I do not necessarily know how to compute the math equation in my head, however the use of the excel tool, and the distributed cognition, allows me to understand a complex math equation and further my learning and development from seeing a complex problem that I otherwise would not have been able to solve without the use of technology. Another example might be using computer games in the classroom, the use of a game allows the student to problem solve and look at situations differently and then apply those lessons after the game. In conclusion, technologies do make us smarter as they allow for distributed cognition and the use of these tools can add to solving complex situations.

NOT since the invention of the iPhone has Apple developed a product more jam-packed full of new features than the Apple Watch.
Having been on the market for over two years, the Watch has made itself a must-have for followers of the tech giant, and is slowly becoming one of their most popular items.
But with so many people getting behind the smart watch, are they all really making the most of its full capacity?
From interacting with your car to ordering your dinner, the Watch's capabilities seem almost endless.
Here are 10 things you probably didn't know your Apple Watch could do.
Unlock your car doors
If you have a connected vehicle, the Watch offers apps that allow you to interact with your car.
BMW, Tesla, Volvo and Hyundai are among a host of car manufacturers that support applications allowing users to perform tasks like unlocking their car doors, starting the engine and checking the battery levels, all from the tiny wrist-mounted computer.
Stay close to your lover's heart
Using the heart rate monitor built into the Watch's activity sensors, it can measure your heartbeat and send it on to another user's watch.
The recipient will be sent an image, sound and a gentle throb to represent your beating heart.
Romantic, right?
Act as a TV remote
If you are linked up with Apple TV, you'll never have to worry about losing the remote again.
Your Watch can perform the same tasks using its Remote app, and can even turn home theatre devices on and off.
Get one over your mates
In newer series, the Watch's built-in fitness feature allows you to track your progress against a friend's.
By turning on Activity Sharing, you'll be able to see how you match up to your friend's fitness goals, and see when they complete a workout.
Dive down to 50 metres
Start getting used to the idea that it is OK to get your electronic devices wet, as Apple is moving more towards entirely waterproof technology.
In fact Series 2 of the Apple Watch is the first piece of Apple kit that can be submerged underwater up to a depth of 50 metres – so there's no need to leave it by the side of the pool when you go for your morning swim.
WATCH THIS Apple Watch OS4 update includes tons of new faces, HIIT workouts and can sync with your gym machine
Write your name
The watchOS 3 update included the Scribble feature, which allows users to write messages with their finger and send them to their contacts.
This proves very handy when you need to send a message but don't fancy speaking into your watch special-agent-style.
Talk to Siri
Siri can be activated by simply saying "Hey Siri" into your Watch.
Just like on the phone, Siri can handle a number of tasks, from searching for pictures to finding you store locations.
Unlock your computer
If you have a Mac with recent software updates, you can unlock your screen without needing to type your password.
You simply need to go into your computer's System Preferences, select Security and Privacy, and then tick the box that says "Allow your Apple Watch to unlock your Mac".
As long as you are wearing your watch, whenever you wake your Mac up from sleep mode, you won't need the password anymore.
Order your dinner
Just like your phone, the Apple Watch supports a number of apps that allow you to order food on the go.
Some even allow you to save recent orders or favourite dishes, making it quick and painless to fill your belly faster.
Tickle your sense of direction
While using the Maps app on your Watch, the device can tell if you are going the wrong way, giving you a little buzz each time you are supposed to turn.
Two short buzzes means left, a long stream means right.
You'll never have to wander down the street staring down at your map like a lost tourist again.

My computers all get the full download speed but only show around 1k upload (with speedtest.btwholesale.com)
This is consistent with wired and wireless connections, macs and PCs (or just one computer on its own, wired or wireless). And it's exactly the same if I swap out my nice new TP-link W9980 router for the cheap and cheerful EE router.
Bandwidth management is not enabled on either router, and enabling it with all the bandwidth allocated to one machine still doesn't provide an upload speed increase on that machine.
It's not a big issue for me, but I'd like to understand. Can anyone offer an explanation, please?
Many thanks, Neil

I have always felt that part of the basic airline philosophy was that there was "stuff" the airline knew that it would not tell the passengers. Mostly for no reason other than transparency would mean the revelation that an airline is actually a commodity product.
I have to tread carefully here because airlines are customers of my team.
Fundamentally I have felt that the Internet creates near perfect information and this would challenge the airlines' principle of obfuscation. Little did I know that someone would actually make money out of it.
Earlier this week I noted that EUClaims was a star of a UK Channel 4 expose - particularly of BA. Well check out this podcast. The implications of which are somewhat mind boggling. I am not going to editorialize on the rights and wrongs of what this chap does. However it does seem to me that my vision of the near perfect data world and the ability to act on that data may actually come to pass sooner rather than later.
You be the judge

April 7, 2007
This is a piece I wrote sometime ago and had on a prev blog but felt was worth reposting/saving.
Leonard's favorite hobby occupied most of his afternoons and even a few mornings when the coffee wasn't enough to wake him up. Standing there, hidden by his very lack of presence, he watched. This hobby was to him not an act of violence but curiosity; he carried no distaste or malice towards these women.
Once in his life, he would sit in parks watching all of the people wander by, men, women and children. But as he began to add stories on to the tableaus, he discovered that all of men ended up wearing his clothes and sharing only in Leonard's minor victories and conflicts. He felt he knew them too well. The children always seem to sting him in a way he was never able to identify or push away. So he began to just watch the women.
Finding a nice open area that allowed his schedule to continue even when the weather was bad, was the last adjustment in a pattern that had been going on for more years now than Leonard cared to admit.
Once again, he stood and watched. Imagining the sordid and wanton lives they must lead, and moments later, reflecting on the devotion and respect they should demand, filled all of the spaces between the structured plans of his day.
Theres was a world that had no room for him in it. Even if his fantasies were wildly far from the truth, and their lives had no dark basements or sacred temples, there would still be no corner in their simple living rooms for him to sit in. There would be no space to watch television with them and share in the mundane struggles of their day. They air they breathed in this large bare room was the only thing he and these women would ever have in common.
When he was younger and had the chance to be bold, he seemed to know that nothing would stay that bright and blinding for long. A decision he didn't even know he had made, favored curiosity for what he would never know and regret for missed opportunities over the nostalgic pain of something lost.
Later, at the usual time, he walked the ten blocks back to his building and nodding to his neighbors standing in the tobacco shop, he opened the door to the only home he had known for the last ten years since college. After making his usual grilled cheese sandwich and tomato soup dinner he had every Thursday, he grabbed his tattered copy of Don Quixote and turned on the television. During the commercials, he read and otherwise he watched the same network programs that millions of other people, men and women watched alone.

Hibiscus Ale
A highly drinkable Golden Ale steeped with hibiscus, resulting in a natural tartness and slight pink hue.View Beer
India Pale Ale
This American IPA is brewed with 2-row and Pale malts to establish a smooth malt profile and golden color. We used Apollo, Warrior, Crystal, Cascade and Amarillo hops in the brewhouse to achieve an intense but clean bitterness and aromas and flavors of fresh flowers and citrus juice.
Near the end of fermentation we dry-hopped this beer with Mosaic, Citra, Crystal, and Sabro to infuse this IPA with notes of coconut, pineapple and freshly grated citrus rind!
The resulting beer is both clean and crisp, bursting with tropical fruit character and very easy drinking even at 70 IBUs and 7% ABV.View Beer
