Execs: Sears strong financially

The "softer" side of Sears? Hahaha! Softer indeed!
Ordinarily, I'd jump in and poke fun at the "Genius" Eddie Lampert and the great job he's done at Sears. But at this point, it's not even sporting. As some would say, it's "not my style"!
Anyway, if I didn't know better, I'd be thinking that geniuses like Lampert aren't any better at flipping coins than the rest of us. Good thing I know better.

If we could just reign in the all the Gov't spending. It's crushing the eCONomy! That's what Mitt Romney said on the Sean Hannity show a few weeks ago. No joke.
I should also mention that Romney went on to claim that, as an asset stripper (aka business man), he understood the eCONomy better than Obama.
Oh yeah, I'd like to see how Sears would do if the Gov't suddenly ended the deficit spending.

If we lay off half of the 22 million government workers, then just think how low the unemployment rate will go!

Drastic times require drastic measures. Maybe we should lay off all 22 million just to be "safe".
Heck, I'm pretty much open to anything that will bring back the financial idiocy. I'm even willing to tax the poor more so we can pay off our national debt.
Let's stop spending money on food stamps too. If the working and non-working poor need money for food, they can go fog a mirror and take out a mortgage. It worked before, it can work again! It's all about free-for-all markets.

One thing that gets me is that gov't is spending $3B/yr now:
this isn't counting SSA, since SSA is just spending from their impounds and not the general fund.
is this graph normalized per CNP16OV -- $12,000 per adult-ish capita, double from 1990.
% of private wages:
(that government workers pay government taxes is kinda dumb when you think about it, LOL)
The taxes on government workers probably all needs to be redirected to save their pension funds anyway so this indicates we need a 50% tax rate, pretty much the burden the Nordic countries pay.
I really don't understand this country. A nation of children I guess.

I hear that.
Let's lay off 44 million government workers.!
How? We'll simply borrow the layoffs from the future, just like we do money!

Here it is adjusted for inflation.
Your overall point is still valid though.

The Conservative group on the council took a long brewing decision to change leader on Monday - Jean Turbnbull has worked hard as leader but she must be in her seventies and was fairly frequently on the wrong side of the majority opinion in the group - something all political leaders learn can eventually cost them their position.
Unexpectedly she has decamped with three others into a splinter 'conservative' group and the Association has some tough decisions to make, since the rules dictate that behaviour that 'brings the Conservative party into disrepute' can mean removal of membership - and most of the members I have spoken to believe that her actions should result in firm disciplinary action.
Our reaction to this challenge will be an interesting test of the local Party's resolve.
8 comments:
Well I posted a comment previously after the election in celebration of the result and then visit today to find I have been branded a Liberal Democrat. I can assure you I did not vote Lib Dem and have no links to the Lib Dems in Torquay. However I still took great delight in seeing the Torbay result. For politicians with nothing to say and no credibility it is far too easy to brand all critics as members / supporters of opposition parties.

Since you have posted anonymously how can I or anyone else know which previous comment was yours? -
You are clearly interested in politics and hostile to me; why I wonder?
Who do you think is a politician who has credibility and 'something to say', Tony Blair perhaps?

... you aren't my ex-wife by any chance are you?

You say that any behaviour that brings the Conservative party into disrepute warrants removal of party membership - well in that case you too should be stripped of your membership. I have been a Conservative voter all my life but was appalled by the election campaign you ran. How is the Conservative party ever going to return to power when there are candidates such as yourself who become mired in local issues and petty squabbles with your main opponents?
- 2:07 pm
I guess theres no pleasing some people - I am the complete opposite to the above. I used to vote for Adrian Sanders because he was more in tune with local issues than either of the previous Tory MP's we had here but this time I voted for you because you have stood up to the council on some important local issues (like Upton School). I am sure that there are more like me - I hope you keep going, Torbay needs a fighter!
- 2:32 pm
I think you people on this site need to be informed that local decisions are made by the local council. Do you know that? Decisions about local school are not made in parliament because they are not national issues. I am not a supporter of either the Lib Dems or Conservatives but it would make no difference who the MP was because the council takes these decisions. No matter how passionately an MP may campaign or believe in any particular local issue ultimately there is nothing they can do.
The role of an MP is to represent the his/her consituency in parliament on national issues.
For example;
National issue - ID cards
Consituency view - whatever this may be
MP role - air constituency view in parliament prior to decision being made.
Local issues are not the same because they are NOT decided in parliament, they are decided in the local council chamber
- 3:36 pm
- Marcus Wood said...
What you say is of course true - I have campaigned hard to demonstrate to local voters the issues that a Lib Dem MP and a Lib Dem government would and do support, in Westminster. These are important issues, like giving control of our borders to the EU and backing the EU constitution, avoiding prison sentences for many serious offences including abolishing the use of prison for all drug crimes (even the hardest drugs). Our biggest concern locally is getting the Kingskerswell bypass built -something supported by well over 80% of the local population, but a scheme that would be firmly opposed by a Lib Dem Government. Take another important and relevant issue, Grammar Schools - they would be abolished by a Lib Dem government.
As a result the local MP has complained bitterly about our campaign (how he can say that our publicising his party's policies is 'negative campaigning' I shall never know).
The fact is the Lib dems won here by ignoring the national issues (that they know costs them votes in Torbay) and creating local protest campaigns (remember the poll tax and the horrible and vitriolic personal campaigns against Mssrs Allason, Bennet and Nicholson).
If it works, and it did, why shouldn't we do the same?
- 3:59 pm
Your comments are sad, but true. The Lib dems did win here by a simply awful ongoing campaign to discredit especially Rupert Allason, who was in fact a decent and hard working local MP who just didn't sink to such depths as his opponent and frankly, didn't fight back.
I truly hope that you don't go down the same road and launch the same kind of campaign; although I can understand the temptation - especially after some of the comments that you have had to tolerate on this site and in the Herald Express letters page.
I truly hope that local electors wake up to the reality of having a Liberal Democrat MP and vote next time on what they want nationally - as the previous commentator has said.
Perhaps if people did the reverse of what the Lib dems have been campigning on (vote for the man, not his politics - what an insult!) we might get better representation here in Torbay and a decent Government in London.

Janie Jones – Witch's Brew
Posted by demonik on May 10, 2009
Not wishing to step on Sexy Witch's dainty toes but, ooh look, it's Janie Jones publicising her big hit single Witches Brew in 1966. Despite several further attempts at cracking the charts, sadly, it wasn't to be although Janie was soon to taste fame like she'd never dreamt when the crusading 'News Of The World House Of the JuJu Queen (with the Clash as her backing band) it's probably fair to say that the Witchy one wasn't eaten up by repentance! began taking an interest in the swinging parties she threw for celebs at her Kensington home where regular attendees are rumoured to have included Tom Jones, Engelbert Humperdink and Tony Blackburn and personal services, spanking sessions and voyeurism were allegedly the order of the day. Convicted of running an escort service, she was sentenced to prison for seven years in 1973 and served four years. Judging by the glam transvestite nun-swishing back cover of her 1983 comeback single
Well, that's certainly upped the tits 'n bums quota if nothing else. Sort of.

Peter Haining & A. V. Sellwood – Devil Worship In Britain
Posted by glampunk on August 25, 2007
Peter Haining & A. V. Sellwood – Devil Worship In Britain (Corgi, 1964)
A collaboration with A. V. Sellwood, Devil Worship In Britain (Corgi, 1964) is the first of, literally, hundreds of books the phenomenon that is Peter Haining has put his name to down the decades. It is also, quite probably, the least likely to see republication.
The tract began life as a series of articles Haining contributed to an Essex newspaper which he expands here into a full-scale investigation. Written entirely in some 'sixties strain of sexy journalism, virtually every other sentence ends on a "and what are the relevant authorities doing about this? absolutely nothing!" note of moral indignation. You can tell they just loved researching it!
Things get off to a good start with a spirited account of a woodland ceremony, or, as the authors would have it, a "perverted orgy":
"A peep into history – to the Moloch worshippers of ancient Carthage? Unfortunately no"
No indeed, for, courtesy of a man known only as 'Vigilant' who'd contacted them after reading Haining's articles and promised an evening that would give them something to think about, lucky Peter and A. V. have just witnessed a Sabbat but a few miles from where they live! Watching from a place of concealment, they began to fear a human sacrifice was about to take place, but thankfully the High Priest was only showing off with his sabre and just about the worst that occured was a naked, altar bound girl spouting indecipherable messages from the dead. Then everybody went home.
This lucky break proves to be a false dawn, however, as, hardly is the investigation proper underway than their covers are blown, interviewees mysteriously cancel and dire telephone threats are received from a North London-based coven (!). However, our intrepid pair are in no mood to let these setbacks thwart them in their unswerving mission and, as promised on the cover, they're still able to dig the dirt on "The Nude Dancers of the North", "Sexual Orgies!" "An obscene rite in the North Country" and all the usual Dennis Wheatley/ News of the World staples we've come to expect from the brethren of Beelzebub.
Is it a "good" book? I'm no judge of such matters, but I suspect probably not. Could it in any ways be described as "essential"? I very much doubt that too, but …
What is interesting about Devil Worship In Britain is the contemporary accounts of various outrages perpetuated by 'Black Magicians' from the late 'fifties through to 1963. Some, like those at Clophill and, to a lesser extent, Westham, are relatively familiar, but who remembers the Bluebell Wood horror or indeed, the aforementioned nude dancers save, in the latter case, the participants – and those who purchased the secretly filmed video of their exploits via various specialist Soho outlets? It's likewise useful to learn that a 'Black Magic' aggregate were operating in North London immediately prior to the formation of the shadowy Gravediggers Union.
Haining pursued the theme through his introduction to the short story collection The Satanists (Neville Spearman, 1969), but his short and altogether more restrained account of events in the passing years are nowhere near as memorable.

Yours truly during my run in the snow this afternoon
Yesterday I did a 7 miler in 36 degrees and fog. It was a great run with almost no wind; a very comfortable day. I went a little longer than normal for a weekday run because I wasn't sure what today would bring.
Currently we are under a Winter Storm Warning. It hasn't been too bad in the Cities, but snow is picking up again as I type this. The brunt of the storm is west and north of here, so those parts of Minnesota are getting clobbered.
When I arrived home from work, there was only about an inch of snow on the ground. The temperature was around 30, light flurries were falling, and the afternoon was pretty decent, all things considered. So it was definitely nice enough to go running!
I put in my typical 5 miler, breaking trail in places, enjoying the sight of snow clinging to everything, and watching the cardinals and chickadees flying around and chirping. Even though the wind started to crank during my last half mile (the front was beginning to work its way through), I had a great time running during our Winter Storm Warning!
Here are a couple of photos from this afternoon:
Breaking trail; the only tracks you see on the trail belonged to me!
A winter wonderland in March
The predicted high temperature for tomorrow is 12 degrees with upwards of 30 MPH winds. I am relieved to know that spring is really only a few days away! :)

Job, Granny, and Talking to Frankie
Well, I survived my first few days of school. I learned that the other two members of my department are going to be retiring sooner than I would like. I like them. And they do some things well that I frankly suck at, and I am not certain exactly how to write "must have the ability to deal with departmental political stuff so Yondalla still doesn't have to" into the job descriptions. Oh, I've been department chair for ages, and will continue to do so. I make sure things run properly and tell them what to do. When someone needs to deal with the dean or the president, one of them goes and has the pissing contest for us.
Yeah, I know, I even teach feminism.
But I survived the first few days.
Yesterday I spoke to Ann on the phone for the first time in a while. I called while Frankie was in an appointment. I had to cut off early because hubby kept calling every five minutes (and I don't know how to take a call without losing the first one, assuming it is possible). I finally said goodbye to Ann to talk to Hubby who just wanted to know if I made it in on time and why wasn't I answering my phone??
Ann sounded much better than she had before. She misses the girls, but she is no longer overwhelmed with sadness. She did not say this, but I think she is beginning to let herself feel the appropriate level of anger regarding it all. But she seems to be doing well. Being able to just take care of herself and Ray is right for her now.
Ann would never say anything negative about her girls on her blog, and I do hope she doesn't mind me saying this...but there is a big part of me that wants to sit one of those girls down and say, "You see how your little stunt worked out? You did not get what you wanted, did you? You are not with your grandmother, you are not where you thought you could make people put you, and if you don't stop being such a pill, you are going to get separated from your sisters. So shape up! The places they put kids who behave this way are not fun."
But I imagine her case worker and other people are telling her that and she is not listening to them. Why would she listen to a foster mother in another state? Perhaps she could have a nice long conversation with Frankie about treatment centers and other programs for behaviorally-challenged kids.
Ah well...Ann if you want me to remove that, I will.
But speaking of Frankie, in his appointment yesterday he again asked when he could start hormonal treatment. I was honest with him and told him he probably wouldn't start until he was 18. I told him that his mother still had parental rights and that the state would not want to even ask her about this, and that if her legal position did change there was still every reason to believe that the state would not give him permission.
I think it sort of went in one ear and out the other. Or all he heard was "Yondalla doesn't know."
I don't know that he got the part about his mom.
There's a post that I want to write about my complicated feelings about his apparent absence of complicated feelings about his parents and being in care -- but I don't think I can compose it yet.
And as a final note, Frankie today is sporting a lovely spaghetti strap summer top. It means his bra straps show, but they are pretty straps, so I think that is okay. Thus dressed, he is sitting at the computer yelling "Woo Hoo... I killed 50 people today! Oh Yeah!"

5 Costly Quoting Mistakes and How to Avoid Them
Here are 5 costly quoting mistakes and how to avoid them.
1. Quoting your prospect's specs
When you quote your prospect's exact specs you are forcing the prospect to compare apples to apples, because the only distinguishing feature between you and the competition will be the price. But, the moment that you change the specs, your prospect can no longer compare identical quotes and price becomes a secondary issue. So whenever possible get permission to change the spec; but keep in mind that any changes you make must be in the prospect's best interest.
2. Pausing after mentioning the price
Here's how most of us tell our prospect the price. At the end of the presentation we'll say Your total investment in these coffee mugs is only $1,200 and then we'll pause and wait for his prospect to say I'll take it. But, when you pausing after stating the price, your pause is in fact a question. You are asking the prospect for his opinion; What do you think about my price? And chances are that the prospect will respond with a price objection. So never pause after stating the price, instead ask a closing question or immediately continue with your presentation. Make this small, but all important change and you will eliminate common price objections.
3. Failing to make the job seem affordable
When up selling or justifying a higher price always focus on the unit price difference. For example, the prospect is willing to invest $2,500 but the promotional product that you recommend costs $3,000. Instead of trying to justify the $3,000 investment, divide the price difference ($500) by the quantity (500 units) and now show the prospect the benefits of investing an additional $1. Although the total dollars spent is the same, investing extra $1 is much easier to accept and therefore much easier to sell.
4. Being the first to submit a quote
Even if the prospect is ready to buy, don't try to impress him with the speed and efficiency with which you can deliver a quote because in most cases your efficiency will cost you the sales. Here's why. The first quote often becomes the yardstick that all other quotes are measured against; in other words every distributor that sees your quote will try to beat your price. Furthermore, the first salesperson to present a quote can't close the sale because the prospect will say I'm still waiting for a few more quotes, and submitting a quote too early could eliminate your competitive edge. If time permits the prospect will re-tender the job using your new ideas, in which case the only difference between you and the competition will once again be the price. So whenever possible try to be the last to submit a quote.
5. Trying to land a job by submitting the lowest price
If you're trying to grow your sales by beating the competition on price, you will lose more often than win. Here's why competing on price is the wrong strategy.
- No matter how low your price, there is always someone willing to supply the same product for less.
- Prospects are reluctant to endure the risk and inconvenience of changing supplier just to save a few dollars, so to get their attention you need to offer a large discount and that results in sales with minimal margins.
- Even if you manage to submit the lowest quote, in most cases you still won't land the job. The prospect will show your low price to his present supplier so that he can match it.
Sales success has little to do with price
You can consistently land the account even when yours is the highest quote if you implement the quoting techniques and strategies that eliminate price competition.

Emily Climbs
10 comments:
I started reading this book awhile ago, but I never finished it. I have the one after it, so perhaps one day I will finish this one and read the next.ReplyDelete
You should, Grace! I can't believe how fast I devoured this book. I think that's the fastest I've ever read any of Montgomery's books.Delete
- AnonymousJune 26, 2013 at 8:29 AM
This is my favorite book ever! Oh, I do love Emily just a ounce or ten more than Anne. I can't help it - she puts all my feelings into words. But odd that just last night while I was thinking of writing, I thought of Lucy and how her books never really have one main plot, but are so well loved. And now today you say nearly the same thing!ReplyDelete
This review was perfect - and isn't the book just wonderful? Emily is so alive!
Aw, thanks, Rebecca!Delete
I think I might like Emily better than Anne too. She just seems more "alive" to me now, as you said it. But then, I haven't read any Anne books in full since last year, so. . . . :)
The Emily books are some of my favorite books ever. Emily Climbs seems to be more about Emily's writing than the others do. I love how she is always so dedicated to her writing.ReplyDeleteReplies
Yeah, she is so dedicated--and she loves it so much! I wish I loved it like that.Delete
Sometimes Emily can be so aggravating! But the thing is...I'm more like her than I am like Anne...heehee. I did like the Emily books, although sometimes they frustrated me because things that I wanted to happen weren't happening quickly enough for me (especially in the last book)ReplyDelete
But hey...it's LM Montgomery- so of course I still love them :)Replies
Haha, I'm probably more like Emily than I am like Anne, too. Or maybe I'm a mixture of both. I know I have Anne's hot temper and ability to hold a grudge, but then, Emily is pretty similar to Anne in that regard.Delete
I just started the last book last night. I'm thinking Lucy Maud wrote it quite a few years after Emily Climbs because of the general composition of the chapters and stuff. Which might not make any sense, but the word I want isn't coming to mind right now. !!!!
okay. now i'm gonna have to go read this series. maybe i'll get it at the library on saturday. :)ReplyDeleteReplies
You definitely need to read it! It's really good. I only remembered bits and pieces of "Emily of New Moon" because I was tearing through books so fast (well, fast for me -- haha) last spring and summer. But I really liked "Emily Climbs" and surprised myself by how fast I read it.Delete
I'm not really working on my speed reading ability anymore--I'm not as concerned about it. Which I think is good. It would be helpful for schoolwork, definitely, but for just leisure reading it's not as important.

I hope the stakeholders will behave prudently and distribute the funds equitably among the thousands of pastrolists who've been adversely affected by the famine.
If this aid is doled out fairly, there is a good chance our society will be a lot more functional. Let's remember, many of these herders were proud people who lived fully independent lives before they were wrecked by a combination natural calamities and a lack of social safety net.
Injecting politics or tribalism into this is bad and immoral.
The Kenya Drylands Livestock Development Programme yesterday compensated livestock traders in Garissa in bid to cushion them from the devastating drought.With funds from the United States Agency for international Development, KDLDP paid out the money to community groups trading in livestock for losing their animals.KDLDP's Chief of Party Francis Chabari said it is part of their work to stabilise households income and food security by empowering communities through giving them financial help. He further said they were looking at improving the access to the livestock markets. "After loosing all my 200 cows three months ago as a result of drought, the going has really been tough for my family of 8 since my husband is also jobless. But I thank KDLDP that it has awarded us cheques," said Habiba Sheikh of Bayan women group. The group receivedSh136,000.
Habiba's group engages in the selling of milk, leather, bones and horns.Chabaria on his part said the KDLDP proposes to pay Sh72 million to support community projects in the 3 counties of Garissa, Wajir andMandera. He urged the locals to fully use the opportunity presented to them by applying for the funds in their respective groups and use the funds to fully exploit the livestock industry.He added that discussions were at an advanced stage with the District livestock marketing councils in mandera wajir Garissa ijara and Tana river on ways for establishing a sheria compliant community managed fund where DLMC members would be able to save into and borrow from. The region has been had hit by the ongoing drought rendering majority of them destitute.

There hasn't been much said on this site about the San Diego SABR branch that I am a part of. That's because in trying to complete my Masters (which will FINALLY finish 1 Apr), I've really pared down on the things I do outside of work, so I have enough time to complete the coursework. This has put a crimp in my SABR style, to the point where I went to last January's meeting and haven't been to a single function since.
Which has made my life poorer as a result.
However, the clouds parted long enough this weekend for me to attend most of our Winter Meeting, which was Saturday. On the agenda, in addition to the normal research presentations, was a question and answer period with Merv Rettenmund, Major League baseball player and coach, and Warren Miller, Director of Media Relations for the Padres. I was able to stay for all of Mr. Rettenmund's comments, but not for Mr. Miller, which was unfortunate, because I had some questions I wanted to ask him. Maybe some other time.
Because Mr. Rettenmund was the Padres hitting coach until 31 Aug 2007, and therefore had some insight into Khalil Greene, I was really looking forward to hearing him speak. Some interesting things that he offered during his 45 minutes with us (NOTE: These aren't exact quotes unless so indicated, rather, my interpretation and paraphrasing what was said):
– A long, slow swing means you're probably a good fastball hitter, not a good breaking ball hitter (I always thought it was the opposite).
– Older generations of hitters might have gotten 8000 minor league at bats; now you're lucky to get 800. The number of broken bats we see may be due to players not having taken enough swings to really learn how to hit.
– On inside pitches, don't shift your body to get your shoulder out of the way, get your hands through sooner (I've been shifting my body. Good tip)
– There is no such thing as 2 strike hitting. What can you do? Get ready earlier, swing slower, get to the ball? Hitting's all about timing.
– Choking up makes no sense with today's lighter bats. Players 50 years ago using 35-40 oz bats, you could choke up and have some bat left. Now, you choke up and have what, 20 oz? You got no bat left.
– Hardest parks to hit in: Comerica, old Arlington Stadium in Texas, Oakland Alameda, and Petco. He loved to hit in Tiger Stadium. He REALLY likes the new ballpark in St Louis.
– Petco: DEAD in Apr/May. When the weather heats up, the ball jumps better. You can hit it out to CF if it's to straightaway CF. Wind will knock it down in the gaps. RF – that's ridiculous.
– He likes Khalil Greene – called him one of the smartest ballplayers he's ever worked with.
– Didn't have much good to say about the current state of the Padres. They are a bad team (99 losses last year, that's no secret) with a bare farm system. He wouldn't be surprised to see the Padres trade Peavy (that's the worst kept secret in the league) and Adrain Gonzalez for prospects (that's interesting, and makes sense).
– Being a good hitter is all about timing, not so much mechanics. Getting ready at a good pace.
– Tony Gwynn thought the extra weight he put on gave him better balance at the plate.
– He had a lot of interesting things to say about hitting. Don't hack, have a plan. Look for a certain pitch at a certain speed in an area. When you get it, hit it. Count doesn't matter so much. He stated that lefties were high-ball hitters and righties low-ball hitters, but that's shifted 180 degrees the last 20 years.
– Greene can't hit a breaking ball. He had positive things to say about Hal McRae, and that Greene needed a change of scenery, but he still can't hit a breaking ball.
– You hit a breaking ball with your eyes. If you see a guy swinging at a breaking ball while looking at the centerfield camera he's got no shot.
– He things the big clubs draft too many players, because there aren't enough teams for them all to play on (this was interesting also. Too many guys splitting time at positions to get into games, so no one gets enough at bats or reps to really improve. He believes you get better by playing the game regularly, and I agree).
– Not a fan of players taking a lot of BP from coaches, because it doesn't simulate a game.
– MLB players suck at running the bases. Quote: ".220 hitters aren't on base enough to work on it."
All in all, a great 45 minutes. Did nothing to assuage my misgivings about Greene, though.

Ah bills. The reality of moving out. Where rent and utilities- gas, water and electricity aren't free 😉
There's a few ways to set up paying ze bills so you worry less about the fines when you forget and enjoying your fine apartment/place.
Rent & Utilities:
Direct debit of course works for rent and utilities. But personally for me, I like to go down reception and pay in person- so I know there were no delays in processing or issues in getting the funds. While for gas and water, that's included in my rent- so no worries there 😉
Electricity wise, I prefer looking at the actual amount so I can monitor my usage (if I need to use less electricity or not). Then I BPay it. And to make sure I don't forget- it sits in my iPod calendar as a reminder.
Funny story though… I actually had visions of my electricity bill being high like $100 with all my cooking (clearly I don't know how electricity bills work) but thank goodness it was a normal $80 for 2 months =) Yay for off-peak electricity usage 😉 woot!
Mobile phone:
Sure set up a direct debit but for goodness sake make sure you have money sitting there! I learnt this the hard way cause seeing how I use a Auspost visa card, I totally forgot that I didn't have enough funds on it. Cue fine of $10 making my bill almost $50, yikes! Now? You've guessed it! Auto reminder in calendar to top up 😉
Again, auto reminders will make your life so much easier. The Myki app is awesome cause it tells me how many days I have left in my monthly pass so I top up. No fines for me for fare evasion 😉
Automate everything and you'll never miss a bill again =)

Michele did a wonderful job watching Desi while we were on an unexpected emergency trip. One less stressful thing to think about knowing our pet was being well cared for. Thank you Michele. I know we will be using her services again and highly recommend her.
Michelle was very professional and did a great job checking in on our cats while we were away. She even knew how to handle their automatic litter box. Would recommend.
We felt so comfortable with Michele taking care of our two cats while we were away for the week! She sent us pictures everyday of our kitties when she visited which was so nice! I'm so glad we found Michele!! I highly recommend her to anyone needing pet sitting!
About Michele
I love cats! ❤
I love cats, and I truly enjoy cat sitting. Please note that I am unable to take care of special needs cats at this time. I am most interested in taking cat sitting jobs where the schedule is somewhat flexible or casual. I hope that I can still accommodate most of my past cat sitting positions, and take on new clients with the understanding that the visiting hours must be flexible. I do still provide ...

Sip Oban. Listen to baby rockstar's band's cd. Take break from all-day writing marathon. (repeat as needed)
Today a nincompoop mis-dialed, reaching my super-secret cell phone. A caller from Wisconsin.
Call 262-203-0318 and say Hi, Perfect Nancy in the Middling City says you're a nincompoop - true or false?
Speaking of strange communiques, RR in KY sent an email moments ago that read, in part, I am a Raelian.
Now I won't indulge those cultos with a hit on their site lest that is their name but are the Raelians the cult that believes we've all morphed from the grays? Or that we all stem from newborn-looking aliens?
RR says that now that he's Raelian smoking is non-lethal.
RR: do not contact me to donate fund to your Raelian cause.
And don't come crying to me when you realize you've been duped, all spent in your flowing cult robe.
Do Raelians wear robes?
Why not join that cult (article about them in my personal archives/fridge door) that believed the apocalypse was imminent so they ditched their clothing and a dozen or so of them jumped into a mid-sized American car and drove like hell to...
well they drove until they crashed into a tree.
A badass cult with a purpose.
Rock on, newbie Raelian.

Robin Van Persie will not travel with Arsenal on Asia Tour
Arsenal have confirmed that Robin Van Persie will not travel with the squad on their Asia pre-season tour, which will include a pre-season game against champions Manchester City who are trying to sign the dutchman. No doubt Arsène Wenger will say that Van Persie is not included in the squad due to an injury concern rather than admit he is departing the emirates.
The top 3 teams in the race for the flying dutchman, Manchester United, Manchester City and Juventus have each made bids for him, which Arsenal have rejected. The Manchester offers were pitched at around £12m while Juventus was lower at £8m for a player, who will turn 29 next month and has 12 months to run on a contract that he does not intend to renew.
Arsène Wenger has stated that he will only sell his prize possession for around £20m. They have already signed the strikers Lukas Podolski from Köln and Olivier Giroud from Montpellier for a combined £24m but Wenger could be expected to spend further if and Van Persie does depart for Wengers asking price their could be another big name coming to the Emirates next season.

Timothy "Timmy Roo" McDonald did not fire his gun that day. Even the sheriff's deputies who arrested him agree to that.
The case against McDonald, an employee of rap mogul Marion "Suge" Knight, hinges on whether he was getting ready to pull the trigger when the deputies appeared on the scene.
McDonald, 34, is to go on trial this week in Los Angeles Superior Court on charges of attempting to murder a gang rival on a street in South Los Angeles last October. By the authorities' own account, no one was injured in the incident and the intended victim has never been located or identified.
McDonald's family says authorities trumped up the charge to pressure McDonald for information about Knight, owner of Death Row Records.
"The police wanted Timmy to snitch on Suge Knight, to tell lies," said McDonald's mother, Mahalia. "The detectives told Timmy if he didn't play ball, they'd get him."

The gigantic cabbage I bought last weekend (and I mean, alien species huge) kept giving me the evil eye from the fridge, and if you know anything about gigantic cabbages, you know they ain't nothin' nice to anger.
"Fine", I thought, "let's make vareniki."
Somehow in moving I lost track of the dry vermouth (the horrors!) so I bundled Danny into the car, drove the three minutes to the store, and bought a bottle. God, I love living next to a grocer. Life changing.
Danny loudly asks if I'm an alcoholic.
"Why on earth would you ask that?" I demanded.
"Because you're buying alcohol at ten in the morning. I thought if you buy booze before noon, you're an alcoholic."
"But...(I stammered) I'm not going to drink it, I'm going to make cabbage dumplings with it!"
I heard the laughing, but didn't dare look to see where it was coming from.

A lot of what I've been doing lately has been centered around this concept of "a wild new work." I think that term is appealing to folks because it sounds alive. And hopeful. Many people are hungry for work to be different – for it to be nourishing and adventurous instead of a source of depletion or fear.
For others, it's easy to throw off this concept as frivolous, or optional – as if only privileged freelancers or white collar workers have the right to dream of something better.
From where I sit, this concept is not optional.
To work in a way that is life-giving is part of the next phase of our human evolution, if we choose to be brave and allow it to unfold. If you believe that the way we treat people in most organizations has no impact on how we treat the earth or the beings we share it with, then I'm sorry, but you are mistaken.
What does it do to a person to go to a stale office building every day to do meaningless work under the hum of fluorescent lights? How does monotony and micro-management change us over time?
According to psychologist Barry Schwartz, we are deeply shaped by the work that we do and the environments in which we do that work. (Check out his 10-minute TED Talk for more on this).
What does that mean for you? When you look around you at your work, does it strike you as an environment that you want to become?
For some of you, I think the immediate reaction would be "No!"
Some of the most troubling aspects of the way many of us work now are:
- The systemic squashing of our own internal truth and integrity (e.g., our obsession with "experts," "objectivity," and productivity above all else)
- The rampant disconnection: from the earth, from animals, from those we love, and, therefore, from our own humanity
When we work in places where those things are true, we experience sickness, whether it's physical, mental, or spiritual.
In these environments, we forget who we are, which makes it easy for us to become desensitized to things like the systematic harm done to people of color or the literal pillaging of the earth (#nodapl). We fill our bank accounts or get to tell others about our fancy job, but meanwhile, something is closing off inside of us. As Viktor Frankl wrote, "Ever more people today have the means to live, but no meaning to live for."
Because of what it does to us and our communities over time, the tightness and misalignment that's felt in so many workplaces by so many people is a serious issue. The tightness and misalignment you feel is a serious issue.
Things have to change.
The work we dedicate so much of our lives to should make us – and the world around us – healthier. And there are people who are making that a reality today. Tami Simon, founder of a company called Sounds True, shares her vision of how business can be different:
We have this idea about business–everything we do has to help us make more money, be more productive or whatever. But that's not my view of business. My view of business is that we are coming together as a community to fill a human need and actualize our lives.
I believe her vision is possible and have seen it happen for myself and others – including people working within organizations. There are always things you can do to nurture your spirit and your humanity, even in the midst of a mechanical workplace. If you feel interested in learning new ways to work and support yourself, I've got three ideas:
You can join our Facebook group, A Wild New Work, where we share resources and discuss issues coming up for working people.
You could register for the free webinar I'm offering tomorrow, September 14th at 10:00am. (If it's after September 14th and you're itching to view the recording, let me know).
If you're a working woman in Portland, you could check out the four-week group I'm offering starting October 29th, where we will get very real about all of this and shake things up in our worklives.
If any of those ideas resonate with you, I hope you'll take a step forward.
Your relationship to work, how you're treated in your worklife, and how you treat yourself in your worklife are so important, and I hope that, no matter what, you at least give yourself permission to want what's best for you and your gifts.

By now, you've heard the big news of the week of the Chinese government banning ICOs, calling them an illegal fundraising scheme. Thanks to Google Translate, you can see exactly what the PBOC (People's Bank of China) said in English. We recommend you look at what they said, not how others interpret it.
Like the SEC in the US, China said ICOs are a violation of the country's securities laws. Bitcoin and cryptos are transnational, bigger than any one nation. However, the significance is the size of these markets. When it comes to Bitcoin specifically, and cryptocurrencies in general, the 4 biggest markets are:
- China
- The US
- Japan
- South Korea
In the 2 largest markets we have an outright ban in one nation and a ban on some types of ICOs in the other, meaning we need to take notice and pay attention.
But is this bad for Bitcoin?
Falling in Sympathy
Have you ever seen in the stock market where GM reports lackluster earnings and Ford's stock price goes down too? Ford moves down 'in sympathy' with the GM news. This happens for a couple reasons including:
- Possible sign of slowdown for the entire industry
- Inability to differentiate products
- Inability to differentiate management or operational differences between companies
- Effect of macroeconomic issues (like recession) or other external issues outside their control (weather, war, tariffs, etc)
The point is Ford and GM both sell cars, but they are not the same company. GM's bad earnings do NOT mean that Ford will have poor earnings too. Ford has fallen in sympathy with GM.
Sympathy in the Crypto World
The concept of falling in sympathy is happening in the crypto world, too. At the moment, the ICO is Ethereum's killer app so, like GM earnings, if one crypto was going to decline as a result of the China news it would be Ethereum.
And yet, Bitcoin and Litecoin dropped on this news too. Nearly all cryptos across the board declined on this news. Bitcoin and Litecoin have nothing to do with ICOs and their block chains are only used for their product/token. Bitcoin's blockchain is only for Bitcoin's use.
Why Would Bitcoin Drop?
Bitcoin is not Ethereum, yet it dropped too. Here are a couple reasons why this happened:
- For those that only glance at headlines and aren't serious about cryptocurrencies, it's easy to think an announcement like this is a slam on Bitcoin or even a ban. It isn't. Bitcoin has mostly good news including Japan's openness to using it as legal tender across the country.
- Harsh treatment of one application, the ICO, on one platform is seen as a slam on all crypto platforms. It isn't.
- Any government involvement, especially the Chinese and US governments, is something to watch (and maybe fear)
At the time of this writing, much of the related price drop has recovered but it pays to keep this in mind. Ethereum, its ERC-20 tokens, and ICOs are in multiple government's crosshairs at the moment and this could happen again. A drop in Bitcoin's price in sympathy could mean both a trading opportunity and a buying opportunity for HODLers.

Should marriage be redefined? If so, how should it be redefined? Proponents of Referendum 74 and the Tri-City Herald suggest we should redefine marriage to mean any two people who love each other. The challenge with the referendum is that it not only redefines marriage as any two people who love each other and want to use the term marriage to define that love, but also for every man and woman currently married. For children, it redefines what is means to live in a household of a married mother and father. Common household terms like mother, father, husband, wife would be eliminated or become terms of bigotry and intolerance.
No matter how much human beings write laws in an attempt to redefine nature, nature has determined that same-sex couples even if "married" under the law, will never be equal to a marriage between one man and one woman. This is because two people in a same-sex union cannot between themselves procreate life as can the union of one man and one woman. I believe society should recognize the union of man and woman in marriage as unique, rejecting the redefinition of marriage as stated in Referendum 74.

Many of you have probably heard about the devastating floods in the Brazilian states of Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo that have left hundreds dead. We haven't had anything like that here in Porto Alegre this year, but we did have some torrential rain and flooding the other day.
Cam and I were trying to get to the grocery store the other day, and ran across this flash flood in action. We took these pictures from our car windows....and we never did get to that grocery store!

Appropriately enough the issue of pay was high up the agenda for today's UNISON NEC meeting, although much of the progress that could be reported related to what is on the website.
It was reported that the NHS employers have yet to make an offer (in the context of discussions about the possibility of a multi-year pay deal which would encompass matters beyond the remit of the Pay Review Body) and that local government employers won't make an offer until 19 March. Opinion is divided as to whether they will make a single year offer and if so at what level they will pitch it. The Scottish local government employers have just made a very low three year offer.
UNISON's Service Group Liaison Committee will meet in March to consider the position and we were advised that this is the first time in history that UNISON's Service Groups have agreed to talk to each other before accepting pay offers. Truly today the UNISON NEC was walking with destiny…
We shall just have to be patient, as I was advised that "anyone with half an ounce of sense" would know that we can't start talking about strike action when we don't even have a trade dispute yet. We were also told to concentrate on unity with unions in our own sectors (although bizarrely this doesn't seem to include likely strike action by a key local government union in April…)
Local Government NEC member Paul Holmes expressed the view that national strike action will be unavoidable and will be supported by members, since the employers won't make an acceptable offer and our members can't afford more years of declining living standards. I tend to agree and certainly think it's prudent to be preparing now for the eventuality of national strike action.

So now it is time for some heads down study. I have rebuilt a lot of the notes and stuff I lost when my computer crashed, so now I'm ready to get back on track. I still have a bit of a time problem at the moment, but that looks like improving very soon.
I thought I would start the next flashcard file with a lesson on the Chinese New Year.

Colorado Springs, Colo Lenoir-Rhyne
University rising sophomore Jacob Queen (Hickory, N.C.) has qualified to
compete in the USA Swimming Short Course National
Championships. The event will take place this December on the
campus of Ohio State University.
Queen holds four school records – 100-yard freestyle (47.48), 200-yard breaststroke (2:05.39), 200-yard individual medley (1:51.88) and 400-yard individual medley (4:00.68) – and earned a national "B" cut time in the 400-yard IM.
"Jacob (Queen) is such a dedicated hard trainer," said Lenoir-Rhyne Head Men's and Women's Swimming Coach Paul Schiffel. "He has high goals and this qualifying time is the first of many. This is the first Senior National time standard one of my swimmers has achieved in many years. He will be competing against the best in the nation. It is a very exciting time for Lenoir-Rhyne University Swimming as well as the Catawba Valley Aquatic Club."
In addition, Queen was named Bluegrass Mountain Conference Swimmer Of The Week on October 18 and is a 2016-17 CSCAA Honorable Mention Scholar All-America honoree.
Recently, Queen finished third in the 100-meter breaststroke (1:05.30) at the 2017 North Carolina Swimming Senior State Championships in Greensboro, N.C..
Queen will also compete in the 2017 USA Swimming Futures Competition in Nashville, Tenn., during the first weekend in August with hopes of qualifying for the U.S. Open, one step below the Olympic Trials.

As previously mentioned, getting my old Transformers out and tarting them up for the masses on eBay has made me feel nostalgic about giant japanese robots all over again. So much so that last weekend I dragged out and watched the 1986 Transformers Movie for the first time in many many years.
There are two scenes in the movie that traumatised an entire generation of young boys [who are all now aged in their late 20s]. To make way for more toys, a slew of classic generation 1 characters are killed off in the first thirty minutes of the movie with little or no fanfare. You can see the first traumatic scene here [recommended viewing] where Prowl, Ironhide, Ratchet and Brawn all get massacred by Megatron and co in their own ship. The worst of it is the closeup of Prowl's face as he dies. His blue eyes glow orange and then burn out as orange smoke comes out of his mouth. He then falls backward with a heavy thud, his chest aflame. In the TV show [at least in the American version] no one died, at worst they'd lose a limb and end up in the sick bay where Ratchet and Wheeljack would put them back together.
The second traumatic scene is the death of everyone's favourite semi trailer, Optimus Prime. After a savage duel with Megatron, he dies on the operating table and goes deathly grey. Anyone who tells you they didn't cry when they saw Prime die as a kid is a godamn liar.
Cool TF clips from YouTube etc:
- An awesome glam metal version of the TF themesong set to clips from the movie
- Die Autobots! – The aforementioned trauma inducing scene where a whole bunch of Autobots get ganked
- Optimus Prime vs Megatron Duel
- Soundwave vs Blaster – Not from the movie, but still cool.
- TV ad for the Blaster toy

Good Morning!
This week we are going to focus on the effects of fast food in our physiology (how our body works). While fast food is known to make those fat rolls grow, it can actually make your brain shrink. Studies have shown that diets high in trans fat are linked to the same brain shrinkage associated with Alzheimer's disease. So if you find yourself wandering the streets pantless and completely unaware of your surroundings, it was probably your value meal dinner that got you there, and at the ripe old age of 26 no less.
Stay tuned this week…every blog is going to be impactful for you and your family!
It's your future…be there healthy with WellnessOne! Have a blessed day!

One of the biggest fears I've had so far is making the switch from pool swimming to open water swimming – fittingly shortened to OWS which is similar to the sound I'm told most people make when they first jump off the pontoon. I'm an avid reader of triathlon and marathon "story books" so have heard first hand about the various nightmares people commonly experience on their first open water swim. Needless to say, it's a mixed blessing knowing what sort of pain is ahead!
I'm booked in for a half day's intro to OWS in a couple of weeks' time, but have been getting more and more itchy that it's only a month from then until race day, and if I am going to be one of those people that need to lie on their back trying to get air into their lungs for five minutes and the timidly breaststroke along the edge of the water frightened silly by the monster of the blue lagoon, I'm going to be in trouble.
I'm confident in the water and can cover the 1.2 miles needed in a pool doing front crawl, but am yet to manage to book the swimming lessons I could do with to speed things up, and so don't have the comfort of knowing I've got swathes of time to spare between my finish time and cut off: I don't.
I was in Manchester this weekend and pottering around Salford Quays with my friend Emma on Saturday when we saw some OWS happening (in the rain, yay the north!). On the tram back into town to find a craft beer spot to settle in for the afternoon, I asked Uncle Google whether OWS was something you could do any day in Salford Quays, or whether I'd – what a shame! – missed my chance this weekend. I was due to find a public pool to do a 2k swim on Sunday morning but figured my first OWS would be a much better gain as I can still do a long swim during the week.
Unpleasant surprise from the Google: there is a watersports centre and it has lots of chances through the week to dip more than your toe in the cooling waters of the Quay, including Sunday mornings. A quick call to the lovely people at the Helly Hansen Centre and an online registration later and I've no excuse not to be on the tram at 0800 the following morning ready to pay my wetsuit hire fee and get zipped into the weirdo cling foam skin of doom.
This is the third time in my life that I've put on a wetsuit. The first and second were on receiving packages from Wiggle, having sent back the first one in a state of shock that my Hertfordshire bedroom could go from balmy to totally tropical within 10 seconds of putting the thing on. That and the idea that medium is not big enough – but if you're willing to throw yourself in massive muddy lakes, it's not like you're going to be somewhere that gets judgy about the size of your wetsuit! Anyway, having been approached in the changing rooms by a nice lady who wondered if I could zip her up, I felt okay asking the same thing of one of the members of staff standing by the dock.
Up to this point, I had the following in my evidence profit and loss accounts:
Positives: I know that you need to put your face in and try to breathe. Get over this and you'll be able to breathe okay and do front crawl. Also to let a bit of water in your suit (not sure why but I remembered this was A Thing). I know some other coping strategies too: this lake has a 300m route as well as the main 500m route. I have given myself the sole goal of just getting in the water and swimming a bit, although nobody I have interacted with so far at the water knows this.
Negatives: I've been getting foot cramps lately (a new thing). My goggles have only even used a) indoors and b) in Greece when the water temperature was the same as an indoor pool, and I wear contact lenses with them. What if outdoor water has weird sh*t in that makes my contact lenses shrivel up? And they'll be no use if my goggles are misty. Another big thing that's had me worried is sighting, or, for mere mortals, looking where the bloody hell you're going. This pairs with the dreaded zigzagging that happens when you can't swim in a straight line without the comforting black line on the bottom of the swimming pool. Another pool-dweller's comfort is the nice glidy push off you get every 25m. None of your cushty glide breaks Down The Quay. Pool wooses. Above all, the biggest fear is not knowing if I'm going to panic. Is the cold water going to be too much to bear? Will I even be able to pluck up the gumption to jump in in the first place, or will I have to ask a lifeguard to push me in? (Actually, could I do that? Are they insured for that sort of thing? Maybe I could do that.) Perhaps I am going to hate every single second before hyperventilating and end up being rescued by the lifeguard in his/her boat?
In the event: I channel all the other people who make this look a normal thing to do, and jump in. My hands and feet immediately shout at me but I shove my face in, do the neck flasher thing to let some water in, and try a bit of breaststroke. Breathing is tricky at first, but as long as I concentrate on actually doing it I'm okay. Not indoors great as breathing goes, but doable. My goggles immediately fog up, so I tread water for the first time since getting my silver lifesaver badge (incidentally when I also made a float out of a pair of pyjama bottoms, which I've since realised is in NO WAY useful for real world lifesaving). Goggles sorted, I go for a bit of head-in-water front crawl, pool style. WHOA that's weird. Dark blue with my hands floating by like ghost hands. This is where some people freak out, but I actually quite like it. Less successful is my ability to swim in a straight line. Really not good at this at all, and my foggy goggs don't help. When there's a swimmer in front of me it's better because I can spot their caps and triangulate the right direction even if one of them is a bit wonky. However, most of them are swimming away from me at some pace, so they don't remain helpful for long.
I find that so long as I'm actually aware of where the buoys are, I'm quite good at changing direction. Lap one is eventually complete, and I hoist myself out to catch my breath, and also because I'm surprised to have finished my lap so assume it must be time to go home. A quick chat with the staffer on the quayside and I conclude to him that I'm chuffed but maybe I've earned my coffee and will not go back for another 500m. However, another minute sitting there and I'm feeling left out. There are twice as many swimmers now doing their laps of the quay than when I started, and some of them are doing breaststroke and chatting. I'm not feeling cold any more (air temperature finally having gotten the message that by the second half of May it's good form to be warmer than the water), and so before I know it some version of me I don't recognise has dived in for a second go. I'm equally as wonky donkey on lap two, pinballing my way around. I lose patience with my goggle situation by the halfway point, but eventually make it back to the platform and can still hoist myself up (another fear – not being strong enough to lift myself out of the water).
The other people in the changing rooms are chatty and we natter away, quite different from virtually all of my pool experiences through the winter and spring.
I had one other fear about open water swimming: for the stress it'd put on the now tiny number of free minutes in my week that I'd enjoy it and want to do it some more; and for my bank balance that it'd make my mind up about needing a GPS watch I could use in the water, betraying my trusty Garmin FR225 which I've been using for the bikes and runs so far. I think my fears might have been realised on both counts!
Endnote: big shout out to Oxygen Addict podcast for Rob and Helen's Open Water Swimming tips. Just knowing that all but the most fruitcake-like of humans "will have mentally put their bike on eBay" by the time the water temp has become bearable enough to crack on and swim was a massive confidence boost. Cheers both!

Who is Steve Bing? Some of you may ask this question. Well, FYI (for your information) he's the owner of a private jet who transported the the two former North Korean captives, journalists Laura Ling and Euna Lee. In addition, Steve Bing also happens to be a close personal friend of former US President Bill Clinton.
At last, after five months of being captives, the two journalists are now happy being reunited with their families and friends.

Inverurie Locos manager Neil Cooper was pleased his side got a result to match recent good performances by beating Brora Rangers 2-1 at Dudgeon Park.
Locos led when Andy Hunter put Colin Charlesworth through with a perfectly weighted pass and the winger made no mistake with the finish.
Martin McLean equalised for the Cattachs on 50 minutes with a thunderbolt from 25 yards but the Garioch team took all three points when Neil Gauld rounded goalkeeper Daniel Hobaan and scored with 12 minutes left, before Gavin Morrison was sent off late on for the hosts.
Cooper, pictured, said: "We knew it would be a hard game because Brora are a good side and it was end-to-end stuff. The equaliser was a setback but we put it behind us and came back.
"It was a very hard game and we got a bit of luck for a change and the players deserved it because I have been pleased with the way the players have applied themselves in the last few weeks. "I'm really pleased for everyone involved with the club because we have had a hard start to the season and we have put in a lot of effort."
Huntly made it four wins on the spin and moved up to second in the table by beating Fort William 4-0 at Christie Park.
Martin Charlesworth, Mike Ewen, Calvin Roddie and Michael Clark got the goals for the Black and Golds.
Turriff United lost 2-1 against Nairn County at the Haughs. Ross Naismith's double was enough for the visitors with Louis Myers' strike a consolation for Turra.
Deveronvale beat Keith 4-1 at Princess Royal Park. Dane Ballard grabbed a hat-trick and Grant Noble got the other for the Banffers with Cammy Keith replying.

Winter is on it's way. There was more than a flake or two of snow around the area this morning. Winter of course puts us in mind of Christmas, and Christmas stock - which is currently coming in at an alarming rate. It's only the end of October and we're already running into "where the heck am I going to put this?" issues...
Books make great gifts! Shop early for best selection! Insert marketing lines here (grin). Come buy a book or 4!
On a more serious note, I had mentioned a while ago that I was going to read Gargoyle by Andrew Davidson. Well I did. I have now finished Gargoyle and I really really enjoyed it. It was a great love story with little bits of historical fiction woven into a contemporary setting.
As a recap:
The Gargoyle
An extraordinary debut novel of love that survives the fires of hell and transcends the boundaries of time.
On a burn ward, a man lies between living and dying, so disfigured that no one from his past life would even recognize him. His only comfort comes from imagining various inventive ways to end his misery. Then a woman named Marianne Engel walks into his hospital room, a wild-haired, schizophrenic sculptress on the lam from the psych ward upstairs, who insists that she knows him – that she has known him, in fact, for seven hundred years. She remembers vividly when they met, in another hospital ward at a convent in medieval Germany, when she was a nun and he was a wounded mercenary left to die. If he has forgotten this, he is not to worry: she will prove it to him.
And so Marianne Engel begins to tell him their story, carving away his disbelief and slowly drawing him into the orbit and power of a word he'd never uttered: love.
Man In The Dark
Seventy-two-year-old August Brill is recovering from a car accident in his daughter's house in Vermont. When sleep refuses to come, he lies in bed and tells himself stories, struggling to push back thoughts about things he would prefer to forget.
What would have happened if the people of America had not let the controversy of the Bush / Gore election blow away in the wind. What if they fought for the president the popular vote elected? What if?
I liked this novel. It's actually the first Paul Auster book I've read although he's been recommended to me forever. He is definitely not a fluff read but if you're looking for something a little more literary but still highly accessible I would recommend him for sure.

The weather here in Mississippi is below freezing but no snow yet. There is a possibility though. Because of the cold snap, there was one casualty in our area already. Cold Weather is dangerous specially to those people who live in old homes with no heater. An old man was found dead in his home suffering from hypothermia. This Cold Weather brings danger to humans, vegetation, fruit crops and animals. The picture below was taken in Plant City, Florida shows an orange with hanging icicles.
Pretty ironic that the weather in the Sunshine State will turn like this. Anyway, the farmers spray a fine mist of water to cover and protect oranges.

Last evening we went to "Bar Estilo" for our last meal in Birmingham. We enjoyed ourselves and the food was very good indeed. Following that it was a few bars and clubs and we were sound asleep by mid night.
This morning we left at 8 o'clock on, what was to be, a long days' cruising.
We slipped quietly from our mooring and left via Gas Street Basin – the massive "Cube" dominating the skyline.
Turning left at King's Norton Junction onto the Stratford Canal we immediately came upon this former Guillotine stop lock. Good job the guillotine is chained and locked!
Next was the Brandwood Tunnel – just 275 yards long but with an intriguing stone relief of Shakespeare above the portal. After a further 9 miles we were soon onto the top of the Lapworth Flight of locks. The Stratford Canal is tiresomely shallow most of the time and we hit quite a few underwater objects.
On one of the 24 (!) locks we worked today we found this 'cotton real' device for helping with the rope during a "cross over" on the old horse drawn narrow boats.
Most of the by-washes on the Lapworth Locks are like Niagara Falls and one of them is so intense it caught James out with an mighty collision onto the stone edging of the pound.
Half way down the flight is Kingswood Junction where the Grand Union Canal almost touches the Stratford Canal. There are two connecting channels between the two canals, making Kingswood an interesting layout. It was our third and final junction on our trip today – to come across one junction in a day is quite something!
'Chance' at Kingswood Junction – the white building is a barrel roofed canal cottage (modified and extended!) one of quite a few on the Stratford Canal.
There was quite a lot of yellow "aware" tape on the Stratford Canal.
Our mooring this evening – just the sheep for company making a distinct change from Birmingham!
Today being one of our longest days ever, we've completed 24 locks in 17.5 miles which took us over 8.5 hours, not a normal cruising day for us.
