The plan was similar to last weekend, with back-to-back 40 mile Ultra Sat / Marathon Sun again, hopefully without getting lost. Well, the short version: mission accomplished and in a faster time than last weekend's effort too. I had a fantastic couple of days!
So, on Friday evening I got a lift from Hammersmith to Streatley from Riel, a lovely Fetchie, (half French, half Spanish, 35 year old known as Contro on Fetch) who'd hired a car for the weekend. We had both booked a place at the YHA and once we'd sorted out our stuff in our rooms, we wandered to the pub next door for drinks and dinner. We were joined there by two more Fetchies – Jen (who was my best friend at primary school, but I hadn't seen her since we were 11 years old, until this year when we were reunited through Fetch) and her partner, Steve, who wasn't racing but would be our finish line photographer. It was a lovely evening but I ate and drank too much. Then again, maybe I didn't, as the run went very comfortably the following day.
We got a coach from the YHA early on Saturday morning to the start at Overton Hill in Wiltshire. We had quarter of an hour before the start and it seemed to be bright but very cold. However, within a few minutes of starting I had stripped off to my vest as it was rather warm after all. The Ridgeway 40 does what it says on the tin – 40 miles along the Ridgeway, which is a sign-posted byway stretching across the countryside over undulating but not-too-hilly terrain. The track underfoot was a bit tough at times, but I've run on far worse surfaces (see Thames Trot!). It was a lovely course and I felt very strong throughout. I had planned to walk the ups and jog the flats and downs. As it turned out, I also jogged a lot of the gentle uphill inclines too, which I was pleased with. There were 9 checkpoints, spaced from 2 to 7 miles apart, where we had to get checked in and could restock on water and nibbles. At mile 28 they had homemade vegan malt loaf – it tasted fabulous! I spent most of the time chatting to various other runners on the route, with Riel never far out of sight (he's usually way faster than me, but was laden with a 10kg back pack this weekend). There was a final climb after the last checkpoint, then the last 3 miles or so came back downhill in a very welcome fashion (you can see the last downhill in the photo). There was however the steep driveway up to the YHA to negotiate, to get to the finish check in – that seemed a little unfair after 40 miles!
I was more than happy with my time of 7 hours 10 minutes, just a minute behind Riel. The certificate and badge say it's a 'walk', which is a little annoying, but then it also has a picture of a local 'white horse' on it that I didn't manage to see from the route either. As it wasn't officially a race, positions don't count here, but I think I finished second or third female.
I got a lift back to London and was very impressed at the top recovery/refuelling meal Jim had prepared, with a good mix of carbs and protein as well as being delicious. I only managed to eat half of it, but the portion was a humongous bowlful. That meant I could have the leftovers after the marathon though…
So on Sunday morning I wandered down the road to the A1, where Riel again acted as chauffeur. We went to Whitechapel to pick up Naomi and Kitty (more Fetchies) then drove up to Halstead, Essex. When we got there we found a gathering of Fetchies already growing. There were loads of people that I knew, including lots of the 100 Club members and others that I'd met at previous races, including Superman (aka John – this was his 251st marathon).
There was a loud, bright and supportive Fetchpoint set up that we ran past 4 times - very good for motivation. RichK took loads of pictures and the atmosphere was amazing. Contro got huge cheers as, not only was he carrying his heavy pack again, but he'd opted for the ultra distance of 30 miles. Yes, he's insane, but there's method in the madness: it's all part of his training for the 'Gobi March' which he's doing in June. That's 160 miles through the Gobi Desert in 35 degree heat, over a week, carrying supplies of food and sleeping mat etc.
I was expecting my legs to start complaining at some point, but I felt great again, though a bit tired. I chatted away with other runners most of the way again and was very pleased to finish with a time of 4:20:36. Job done.
There was a presentation for Michael whose 100th marathon it was, as well as lots of cheer in general as loads of PBs were achieved despite it being a rather warm day. (No sunburn for me though – just more freckles.)
This morning my 4 mile gentle recovery fun felt very good. I thought of Contro, still in Gobi training mode, who's planning 20K runs to and from work, with the pack, for the next 3 days… No rest for the wicked and all that.
Just one marathon to come this weekend for me, then a bit of a break before Edinburgh at the end of the month. Did I mention that I like running?

Spoiled me a bit though. Eating out every day/meal. TONS of restaurant choices. Coffee at least once a day. Not keeping track of food & exercise. A real vacation, a real break from the day to day.
Left me wishing for a little more of all that when I got back home. I know that that much indulgence everyday long term would NOT result in happiness, I have no doubts. And it's better to leave wanting more and ready to go back with good memories than to get sick of it and not want to go back...
It might take me a little longer to snap out of it though. heh.
I THINK I came out of it even money-wise, more or less. Will see for real when we do finances, but so far so good. Just got a check in today that should cover the hostel expense I put on the credit card. Still - $117 for 5 nights? Good stuff.
Left once again with the conundrum - it would be SO very nice to live closer to those gals. But how will we ever find a city/living situation that we are all happy in? I do love FF. Aware of its shortcomings and all.
We see each other so well, the power and the beauty and the potential. We cheer each other on when we aren't reaching our fullest expressions. And yet it's still hard to really believe it for ourselves. That "well, they have to say that, they're my friends." But seriously - why would we have become friends in the first place if we didn't think the other was awesome? I'd like to think that initial assessment at least was honest if nothing else, but I'm sure it's more than that.
Funny, funny, the way the tricksy mind works... heh.

Chelsea beat Huddersfield Town 3-1 during the midweek Premier League fixture and got back to winning ways but not everyone was pleased after the match.
Chelsea were without their prolific striker Alvaro Morata who missed the game through injury but for some reason, Antonio Conte chose not to start with Michy Batshuayi – his other striker. The Italian instead deployed Eden Hazard and Willian in the forward roles with Batshuayi only coming on as a substitute late in the second half.
This lack of faith in the Belgium is a very clear indication that Batshuayi will be moving out of the club – either in January or during the summer. And Chelsea might have already made up their mind as to where he would be heading.
Earlier this week reports suggested that Chelsea were in the hunt for Monaco's Thomas Lemar and now it seems as if the Blues are planning to use him in a swap deal to bring the Frenchman to Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea were planning to make a bid for the Monaco star during the January transfer window and now they just throw in Batshuayi in the mix just for good measure. Monaco has been forced to sell a lot of their star players during the summer and they too are in dire need of reinforcements.
But if this supposed deal goes through then the biggest losers will most certainly be Arsenal as the Gunners have an interest in both these players. While Arsene Wenger has held an interest in Batshuayi, Thomas Lemar, on the other hand, remains one of the club's biggest transfer targets.

With both teams finding it hard to get traction on offense, undefeated Heritage tacked on a pair of defensive touchdowns in the fourth quarter at Leesville Road on Friday night to escape with a 21-0 win in a game that was the Cap-8 opener for both squads.
This was the second shutout for Heritage, now 5-0 overall and 1-0 in the league. But Huskies defensive coordinator Wallace Clark said it's about the team, not the offense or defense.
"It's all about the team and what we can accomplish," Clark said. "Coach (DeWayne) Washington talks about overcoming adversity, and that's what we did tonight, as a team."
The Huskies started the game missing two key players, running back Ricky Person and defensive end Randy Davis. Then the offense ran into a stout, formidable Pride defense that gave up just one score in the first quarter. In the fourth quarter, the Huskies picked up their second unsportsmanlike penalty on the bench, resulting in Washington being disqualified from the game.
Leesville's offense was showing life in the second half but got backed up to its own 1-yard line after an interception by Pride defensive back Davonte Terry. On second down, Leesville quarterback Evan Provost threw the ball over the middle, but Huskies noseguard Maui Garchitorena was able to grab the ball for a touchdown that put his team ahead 14-0 with 6:38 left in the game.
"I wasn't expecting that, my first touchdown," Garchitorena said. "I saw the ball and just jumped, and it was in my hands.
"But the whole defense played well this game, set the tempo."
"Our defense played great," said Leesville coach Brad Wilson, whose team is 2-3 and 0-1 and has been led on defense this season by linebacker Danny Blakeman and back Colton Murray. "Offensively, we missed some opportunities early and couldn't get in any rhythm. But they played better than we did."
Jalen Pittman, Heritage: The speedy senior burned the Pride defense for a first quarter, 44-yard touchdown on a pass from Gunnar Homberg. Then in the fourth quarter he iced the win with an 87-yard interception return with just over 5 minutes left that gave his team the three-touchdown lead.
Austin Dowler, Heritage: He led the Huskies defense that made things difficult for Leesville the whole game. He had several tackles for loss and a fumble recovery on a sack.
Evan Provost, Leesville: Threw for 153 of the Pride's 262 passing yards, with Vince Amendola throwing for the other 109 in the fourth quarter.
73: Total offensive yards Heritage mustered in the second half against Leesville, but the defense picked up the slack with two touchdowns.
Minus-18: Rushing yards for the game for Leesville against a strong group of Huskies, led by Dowler, linebacker Drake Thomas, lineman Joe Kane and safety Branden Kunz, according to Clark.
3 for 30 yards: Consecutive penalties for Heritage that resulted in a second down and 42 to go situation late in the first half.

A new state panel studying the environmental effects of diverting polluted water from Lake Okeechobee was told on Monday that damages to the Everglades may be irreversible, and also may be unavoidable in attempts to restore former Everglades tracts to a natural condition.
The Lake Okeechobee Technical Advisory Committee agreed it wants to hear more about Everglades problems from state and federal officials charged with managing more than 2 million acres of wetland wilderness in Palm Beach, Broward and Dade counties.
Walter Dineen, senior environmental scientist for the South Florida Water Management District, told the panel that studies have documented significant habitat losses in Everglades Conservation Area 2. The problem, he said, is that excessive phosphorus in drainage that pours into the wilderness area encourage pollution-tolerant species, from algae to cattails, to overtake native Everglades species.
``It`s replacing a desirable eco-system with an undesirable eco-system. I don`t know of any scientific evidence, but I suspect it may be irreversible,`` said Dineen, an Everglades researcher.
The same invasion of cattails could well dominate the state`s attempt to restore the Holey Land Wildlife Management Area, a former Everglades tract that has been altered by overdrainage. Construction of levees and pump stations to reflood the area is under way and scheduled for completion in 1989.
The committee will hear next month from officials of the National Park Service and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service on research documenting problems in the Everglades habitats of Everglades National Park and the Arthur R. Marshall Loxahatchee National Wildlife Refuge.
The nutrient-laden runoff from sugar cane and vegetable fields in the Everglades Agricultural Area is the primary threat to the Everglades, according to district studies. Part of that storm water used to be backpumped north into Lake Okeechobee, but the practice was largely discontinued to protect the lake.

We are back in Maryland!! Hallelujah!!! Our location is Deep Creek Lake State Park for the whole summer. So, anyone coming this way.... give a holler! It's a very popular vacation spot. Daytime temps rarely over 80*, rural roads for biking and running, a big lake for swimming, boating, kayaking, water-skiing, fishing.
So we are "settled," but... sigh, the Time Crunch has hit again. I've got so many projects and to-do's I can't see where to start. Today.... I need to go to Goodwill (about 18 miles each way) and get shorts and long pants to wear as a Park staff member... they give us shirts but we're supposed to find our own pants. They're supposed to be sort of olive green (the color my college roommate in 1969 called "diarrhea green") and I am not going to a clothing store and pay $$$ for them when I hate the color and can get them for a couple bucks at Goodwill.
Today also, I want to put my new cadence computer on my bike. I also need to wash/clean/lube said bike. It needs a tune-up and I don't want to take a dirty bike for a tune-up. I'm supposed to run 40 minutes. I need to clean up our trailer. I need to vacuum.
I need to start sorting through my photo files and printing some frameable ones, matting them and framing a couple, for display and hopefully sale at the local artists' gallery; art exchange day is May 12. I need to make the photo t-shirts I've planned for my mother's birthday present (her BD was April 17....)
I'll be "making rounds" of 200+ campsites every day for PR, anyone-need-anything?, reminders to store food inside on account of bears and raccoons, reminders to put bike helmets on kids and leashes on dogs, handing out leave-no-trace and clean-up-your-dog's-poop trash bags, and whatever else comes up. Thank goodness hardly anyone's here yet.
I need to get off of here to start getting some of at least today's stuff done. I was going to make a list, but I just read online about a woman who printed out her "to do" list and it turned out to be 15 pages long. Forget it.... that would be guaranteed to bring on hot flashes in clusters. And no, they are not Power Surges.... they do not spur you to any action or ambition other than to open the freezer and slap a bag of frozen peas on your face and stuff another one down your shirt.
I do, however, think it would be funny to wear, in races/marathons, instead of my first name across my shirt, a name tag that says "Hot Flash." I think people yelling, "Go, Hot Flash!!" would be very empowering! Especially if I dress in something hot and flashy. Guess that excludes my cutoffs.

On-loan Arsenal striker Lukas Podolski is happy with his first month at Inter Milan.
The German moved to the Italian giants during the January transfer window after failing to nail down a regular spot in Arsene Wengers side.
And he has admitted that he is more than happy with the move.
He told the Sky Sports website: "I've been welcomed very well. Things are different compared to London, but I haven't experienced any difficulty.
"We need to pick up the necessary points over the next few matches. There are enough games to reach our objectives.
"Personally I feel that I am fast approaching my best form.
"Football here has a heavy tactical slant and is based on results.
"The matches are always very tough, and the adversaries all very hard to play against."

In an attempt to appeal to Tory voters, Mr Clegg said that his party's economic policies are more representative of Thatcherite free-market principles than those of David Cameron.
Many of Britain's current economic problems, Mr Clegg said, could be explained by a failure to enact the pro-competition policies put forward by Lady Thatcher.
This reminds me of Gordon Brown getting a picture with Thatcher, attempting to out Tory the Tories.
Clegg also said his party's tax policies were similar to those of Lord Lawson, the Conservative chancellor during the 1980s. The Lib Dem plan to raise the starting threshold for income tax to £10,000 is a "Lawson policy".
Mr Clegg's praise for Conservative figures may fuel speculation that he would be prepared to co-operate with the Tories in the event of a hung parliament after the election. In an interview with the Spectator magazine, Mr Clegg said that he had campaigned against many of Lady Thatcher's policies during the 1980s. But, he said, he now realised that she had been right about many things.
'I'm 43 now. I was at university at the height of the Thatcher revolution and I recognise now something I did not at the time: that her victory over a vested interest, the trade unions, was immensely significant. I don't want to be churlish: that was an immensely important visceral battle for how Britain is governed. "And what has now happened to the British economy? It has gone belly-up because, once again, we have allowed a vested interest to run riot.' That "vested interest" is the banking sector, Mr Clegg said.
Mr Clegg said that Mr Cameron, the Tory leader, and George Osborne, the shadow chancellor, were unwilling to tackle the "vested interest" of the bankers. "A real liberal believes in genuine competition, a genuine level playing field and he is unremittingly hostile to vested interests."
The Lib Dems are facing a strong challenge from the Conservatives at the general election. Tory strategists believe they can capture more than ten parliamentary seats currently held by Lib Dem MPs, most of them in the south and south-west of England.
Nick Clegg is trying to walk a middle line that attracts support from floating voters on both left and right, but this is a dangerous way to do it.
Not to be outdone UKIP want to privatise everything

HR leaders worldwide consider increasing globalization and regulation of labor and employment issues to be among the most important HR issues of the coming decade, according to a global survey by the International Bar Association's Global Employment Institute (GEI).
The report, Looking to the Key Human Resources Legal Issues of the Next Decade: The 10/20 Survey, was published Feb. 10, 2011.
GEI's report closely mirrors one released Feb.14, 2011, by the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM). SHRM's report cited continuing increases in U.S. health care costs as well as global and domestic economic and labor market conditions. It cited growing regulatory complexity and the aging workforce segment poised for retirement within the next five to 10 years.
GEI surveyed HR leaders in more than 200 multinational corporations in 22 countries and asked them to rank what they felt would be significant HR issues between 2010 and 2020. GEI received 119 responses.
Among the top international HR challenges were company operations, such as restructuring, mergers and acquisitions, and outsourcing. Employee mobility, management of diversity, work/life balance and social network communications were high on the list, too.
"The prominence of work/life balance in the survey [it ranked second worldwide] may reflect the extent to which employers are increasingly taking responsibility for the psychological and physical well-being of their employees, whether through providing physical exercise in the workplace or access to life coaches," said Mariann Norrbom, vice chair for knowledge management at GEI.
Managing employees from afar ranked high. So, too, did workforce diversity. Survey researchers attribute that to fewer people retiring and more women and immigrants entering the labor market.
"As the workforces of multinationals become more and more diverse, their HR policies have to increasingly reflect this plurality of employees. This is a difficult task, particularly when multinationals move to cultures with quite different values from their original countries," GEI stated in a news release.
The Rankings
HR leaders were asked to rank 10 issues in order of importance:
Human resources issues in transnational company operations.
Work/life balance as a key factor in acquiring and retaining talent globally.
Managing mobile employees and those working remotely in other countries.
Nondiscrimination and management of diversity in a global company culture.
The use of the Internet and social networking communications in the workplace.
Transnational sources of regulation on human resources, including codes of conduct and International Framework Agreements.
Corporate social responsibility issues in a global market.
New financial regulations and their influence on managers' compensation strategies.
Increasing regulation of labor and employment issues at the international level.
Unions and collective bargaining.
When ranked separately, the responses from HR decision-makers of multinational corporations headquartered in the United States placed the trend for globalization first but differed markedly on a few other issues. For example, they ranked collective bargaining fifth, rather than 10th, and they ranked work/life balance eighth, rather than second.

In honor of Valentine's Day, this week's topic for Sprite's Keeper's Spin Cycle is Love. At first, I thought, hot damn. I've been struggling for something to write; this will be an easy topic to bang out (pun sort of intended). But writing about love is much harder than I thought it would be.
I'm generally not a fan of Valentine's Day. It's a contrived Hallmark Holiday designed to make you feel bad if you don't have someone in your life or aren't subscribing to the stereotypical notion of romantic love. I don't hate Valentine's Day, but I don't measure the strength my marriage by whether or not I was showered with over-priced, half-dead flowers and a box of chocolate. It's not a barometer of my love for my husband or vice versa. It's much deeper than a sentiment on a card. More importantly, I hate the idea that you single out one day of the year to tell your significant other that you love them.
This will be the 13th Valentine's Day with my husband (ooh, lucky number 13), but we weren't exactly dating that first one. We had sort of started to, but not really. I think we were both seeing other people, because for various reasons we had decided it couldn't work between us. But we liked each other, we "got" each other and liked spending time together. I clearly remember him sending me a little white teddy bear with a mug full of carnations or something. The romantic kiss of death, right?
Not long after that, though, we got by whatever was holding us up, and started dating. I think I knew pretty early on that he was the one I wanted to spend the rest of my life with—which is why I kept pushing him away. He was actually interested in me, in what I had to say, in what I wanted out of life. He cared about my feelings and actually wanted to know what made me tick. How scary is that?
When we first got married I didn't expect it to be wine and roses every day, but I do think I underestimated how hard marriage can be. You can love someone will all of your heart, but it's not always enough. It's much more than that. You have to do some work. Every day you have to get up and choose this person all over again. Every day you have to choose to get along, to fight battles together, to agree to disagree and be supportive of each other.
Contrary to popular belief, love does not conquer all.
I know that sounds cynical (I've been called that once or twice!). But I don't mean to be. In fact, I'm a total romantic. But I'm realistic. I believe it's the other 364 days of the year that really matter. It's those days, that no matter what's going on, no matter how tired you are, cranky about work or whatever else is bugging you, that you have to step up and treat each other with respect, compassion and kindness. It's the quiet acceptance of someone for who they are (even if who they are is a rampant snorer!). It's the daily little things you do for someone to make their lives just a little easier (even if they don't notice). It's putting someone else and their needs before your own. And it's the belief, it's the trust that someone is going to do the same in return. More than anything, it's trust. Trust in each other that you'll treat your feelings with respect and care. That's love. And it's the stuff of passion.
It's not always easy, and I'm the first to admit that I'm not always successful. But I try. And so does he. And some days that's all that matters.
So what does love have to do with it? Everything.

It's the anniversary of the publication of The Great Gatsby. What a wonderful book. Reading the New York Times article about high school students reading the book is painful. I guess that everybody identifies with Gatsby at that age. But from the Times' article it doesn't seem that the kids are aware that Gatsby's green light is really empty and false. On the other hand they are kids, although I would have thought that the teachers would have attempted to point something like that out to them.
In thinking about it though Fitzgerald was about as close to seeing life as Gatsby did as an author could get to a character. It is kind of surprising that being so much like Gatsby he could step back and look at him through Nick's objective eyes. So maybe I should not be too hard on 16 year old kids who don't see the futility and (dare I say it) existential emptiness of Gatsby's light. Particularly since the author both did and didn't, himself.
The 1974 movie was really pretty bad. Robert Redford was good as Gatsby, but Mia Farrow was no Daisy. She was awful. The script wasn't particularly good either. When a relatively short book like Gatsby or Call of the Wild or A Christmas Carol is made into a movie it really is better, I think, to keep very close to the original (which can be done with these short books) rather than to try to "open it up" or "improve" on it. The movie is rarely better for the changes.

"Whoa. You're saying man too much. Something happen?"
"I…shit. Just shit…I did it. I really fucking did it."
"Slow down. Did what?"
"She…she was talking too much man. Said those things and shit. So I…god, I–"
"I'm gonna say it again. Slow down. What are you talking about."
"Its…I killed her man. I just turned around and killed her. Right in the head with a shovel. I just lost it."
"You're serious."
"Jesus Christ…"
"No. No, I'm not done. I realized what I did, right? I mean, holy shit, there's blood everywhere, you can't help but notice. It's hard not to notice, what with the blood and the shovel and the…well, I mean, I noticed and I freaked out and…"
"…So anyway. I moved the body."
"Where'd you move it?"
"Thats not important, dude."
"Yes it is. You put it somewhere stupid, you get caught."
"I tell you and you call the cops. Sorry, I trust you and all, but I killed the bitch. Not exactly smart to go broadcasting where you put the evidence."
"You sound like you're sobering up."
"Far fucking from it. And like I said, it doesn't matter. Not at all."
"Hey, uh…I've been meaning to ask and all, but why are you whispering."
"I'm whispering because…fuck, because she might hear me. Fuck, I mean…"

"What the hell does that mean?"
"I…I got rid of the body, right? But I came back. And she was there. Perfect, like, 100%."
"No blood. No scars. Nothing. Like she just came back whole. And…man, I thought I was insane. I was sure. But then I went to check and…"

Hey GWT! What's your favorite book store?
Why, its every bookstore, friend!
Bookstores are dangerous. For me, at least.
Its guaranteed: if its payday, I'm in a bookstore and I'm buying something.
My bookshelf has too many goddamn books right now because of this.
It's not an addiction though, I can stop any time I want.
Everyone has a great summer memory, don't they?
I mean, think about it. We've all got summer memories and they're all great, You do, your mom does — the only people who don't are infants who haven't had a summer yet.
Well, I'm no different. I've had tons of summers and tons of summer memories, but nothing I can really call a favorite.
I DO have a "Jesus christ I was an awful child" memory though.
How awful, well…

There are still a few Sharp ER-A320 cash registers left
|Sharp ER-A320 Cash Register
The POS and Cash Register online store still has a handful of Sharp ER-A320 cash registers left that are new in box. The ER-A320 was discontinued mid 2012 even though it was one of the best selling Sharp cash register ever.
The ER-A320 is a work horse of a machine. This machine was very simple, durable and cost effective it's a shame it is gone. This was not a result of Sharp buy rather Epson who made the printer stopped production of the printer used in the A320.
As far as I know there is not yet a direct replacement for the A320 however rumors have been flotaing around that a new model is on the way? The closest thing to a replacment right now is the Sharp ER-A247 or the ER-A347 both of which are great cash registers however pretty different from the A320.

A View Up River
A look up the river from the deck of 'my' house (see previous posts). This is a tidal river, and is brackish at times... it sometimes flows UP rather than down!
Not too much to say today. I'm back in my little campground, having spent the better part of the day with an old friend. The lunch we have every visit seems just too short... we need to talk about EVERYTHING and then do a little computer work and there just isn't enough time. She is my mother's age, and a little lame (sorry Lois
What I need to do sometime is come up here after she moves out of our house and into Florence, where she will be in a more accommodating place to live. Just stay somewhere in a
She and her husband moved up here into the 'big house' around 1976, which is when Joe and I traveled around the United States, looking for somewhere we could get along... and that's DEFINITELY another story for another time. The story sort of goes like this (and forgive me, Lois, if I get it wrong): Her husband, Don was a mover and a shaker, and a very busy and important man. He was also about 6'6" and adorable, but that's getting away from the subject. They used to come up here to vacation in the little cottage beside the big house and planned to move here when he retired. He came to her one day (in his late 50's) and said, "I won't live to 65 at this rate" and they moved up here post haste. At his retirement party all the other movers and shakers came to Lois and said, 'You can't make Don do this, he'll be bored to death!"... she said it wasn't HER idea (she was a mover and a shaker in her own right). All the men at the retirement party, including my father, died a long time ago, except for one man who came to them and said , "Now WHAT is it you're doing exactly?" and moved to Grant's Pass.
So they moved and lived happily in my house for a long time.
I love that story... except for the dead people, of course...
and that's my tale today...

He came to San Francisco for his business trip yesterday. He is working for a major US network router vendor at their Japan office. Sometimes come to bay area where their headquarters are located to bring their customer. We met last October and went to Crustacean to have the popular garlic taste crab. This time I took him to 21st Amendment which is located in SOMA and is also the place I visited a month ago.
The place is really busy and looked full at first sight. However, we got a table luckily. We enjoyed beer brewed there, wine and American cook such as hamburger, onion fries. Tasty food and alive atmosphere. I like the place.
His itinerary looks busy and he has to travel back to Japan in a few days. I hope he is doing good job and come here in SF again soon.

There are some great books being made into movies this year! Now, whether the movie will be any good is, of course, a question. But, if you want to do a bit of reading before the movie hits, here are a few suggestions.
The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins (and honestly, you probably already knew about this one)
Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs
Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk by Ben Fountain
A Hologram for the King by Dave Eggers
A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness
The Light Between Oceans by M.L. Stedman
Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carroll
I do understand it's sometimes better to skip a book, see the movie, and then try the book. Personally, I prefer the movie Chocolat to the book. Conversely, I've never been able to watch The Godfather because I read the book a few times and the actors never quite matched the characters I had in my head. However, if you are curious about the books (or would like to revisit them), you'll find them in our catalog.

The Spirit of Glory: The Medium of the Glory (continued)
But you notice through this chapter, and what Paul is writing, there are these fundamental contrasts. These fundamental contrasts which are of such tremendous importance, and dear friends, I do not feel that I can put sufficient emphasis and stress upon this matter, it goes far deeper and more into the present situation than most of us realize. My difficulty is to make it clear, make it plain. Here we are in the presence of something of tremendous importance to Christians, because, after all, and this I am sure you will agree with, the real need where the Christians are concerned is that our Christianity shall be glorious. And that we should be glorious Christians, in the right sense. Well, you agree with that, but how? And it is by not only recognizing, but coming into the good of these fundamental contrasts which are presented to us in this chapter. There is this contrast at the heart of the others. The contrast between the Law given by Moses, and the Revelation given in Jesus Christ. There is the contrast between tables of stone, and hearts of flesh, and so on. But, right at the center of these contrasts, this is this one: "The letter killeth, the Spirit giveth life."
Now let us be very clear as to what that means, that is not a contrast between the Word of God and the Holy Spirit. It cannot be that. The letter, the letter there is the Word of God, but it is not set in contrast to the Holy Spirit as necessarily bringing death, while the Spirit brings life. I want you to be very clear in your mind about that. You see, when you use that phrase: "the letter killeth," do not thing for a moment that that means that the Word of God brings death. You have got to get it in its setting and understand what it is that the apostle is saying here. It is between legalism in relation to the letter or the Word of God, and life which comes by the Holy Spirit's action upon the Word of God. This is what the apostle is saying here, as he has said much more fully in other parts of his writings.
He is saying, 'Look here, because of a state in persons, their heart was hardened,' because of a state in persons the Word only comes to them as a legal statement of 'thou shalt shalt and thou shalt not.' It is something imposed upon them. It becomes a heavy and dead weight upon them. It just is a matter of oppression. 'Now you must do this and you must do that, and must do the other thing, and you may not do these things.' And so it may be the Word of God, but because of a state in those concerned it becomes simply legalistic, and therefore it becomes bondage. It is the same Word, it is all the Word of God, but it is the effect that it has upon us. And that depends entirely upon our state.

What A Special Spiritual Counseling and Healing Team Gets Paid
The conflict Paul and I have been having most recently has been about whether to change how we get paid and how much. We thought we had resolved that one. The subject of money has been a concern since Day 1. But after quite a bit of experimentation we came to a compromise that really wasn't completely satisfactory to either of us alone.
That's not exactly the same as both of us winning. Coming up with a reluctantly acceptable compromise is more like the best most couples ever expect to do. We had worked really hard at being respectful of each other's thinking and the experiences we had had together thus far, so it was the best we were able to think of at the time. But I know both of us were actually somewhat disappointed by the choice that we made.
I always wanted us to charge more for our work. I had already gotten my rate up to the $100/hour rate we finally settled on when I worked alone before Paul and I met. And that had taken a fair bit of trial and error and lots of change and personal growth at the time. I believed I KNEW what we should charge working as a team: $150! After all, we had done extensive research on the web. Individuals working alone doing anything comparable to what we do frequently charge that much, until recently we lived in one of the most expensive places in the country and, despite the old saying, two people definitely do NOT live as cheaply as one! At the very least, we eat twice as much.
Paul was horrified by that suggestion! He originally wanted our prices to be as affordable as possible. He's a true humanitarian at heart and neither one of us has ever been wealthy. If we couldn't imagine paying more for our own services -- $100/hour is the most I've ever paid anyone -- how could we possibly charge our friends and neighbors that much?
He had a point. You have to believe in yourself enough to think that your much wealthier friends and neighbors might think you're worth paying as much as they're used to paying anyone else. But if you've been living low on the pay scale yourself it's heart-breaking to leave people in your own tax bracket out. Maybe we've had a working class poverty-conscious block or two of our own that we needed to work out but we really don't want to cater to the richest segments of our society alone!
So we hemmed and hawed and together went through some of the learning and growth experiences I had partially gone through alone. We tried some things I never was willing to do -- work on a donation basis and then on a sliding scale -- and then wound up exactly where I had been before. No sliding scale and charging the going rate in Santa Cruz ($100) for a practitioner working alone.
Well, guess what? In some parts of Arizona that rate is more than acceptable but in the tiny rural area where we live $100/hour is thought to be an outrageously high fee!
We love working in-person and really want to do that more...but we do a lot of our business over the internet now and we aren't convinced we will stay here anymore... so you can see the dilemma. For the last few weeks it's been back to the drawing board once again.
This time we went for win-win. What did we both want to do? I wanted a higher flat fee that reflects the quality of what we do. We both wanted to be able to help people in our local community here and wherever we wind up choosing to be. So we decided to do both:
Our current flat fee is $150.
We schedule in the afternoon and evenings (including weekends) and are currently able to book sessions 24-60 hours ahead or more.
We also offer half length sessions and lower rates for people with financial difficulties.
We have a sliding scale that goes from $50-150 / hour, $25-75 / 1/2 hour. People may choose whatever they can afford within these ranges.
And what if people are so happy with us that the fee they chose in advance doesn't seem high enough?
That has happened frequently enough! So we have a very clearly labeled Paypal button on our site for tips for exceptional service and donations to help us make our services accessible to others.

The MIC=Military Industrial Complex. In his latest piece for TruthDig, Robert Scheer examines the whys and where-for's of the reasons we are still in Iraq. His title is: "Ike was right". What we need to fear is the MIC. I blogged about this angle earlier in the year. I think Ike was spot on, and Scheer, like myself, quotes Ike's final speech on the subject:
"In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist."
The phrase "unwarranted influence whether sought or unsought" really jacks my jaw. Its true you know, there is far too much influence brought to bear on what we do in our foreign policy based on what private companies, such as Halliburton, can reap.
One paragraph I smirked at in Scheer's piece was this:
"Yes, some, like Paul Wolfowitz, the genius who was the No. 2 in the U.S. Defense Department and has been rewarded for his leadership with appointment as head of the World Bank, did argue that Iraq's oil revenue would pay for our imperial adventure. A recent study by Nobel Prize-wining economist Joseph E. Stiglitz and Harvard University's Linda Bilmes marked that absurdity by estimating the true cost of the Iraq adventure to U.S taxpayers at a whopping $2.267 trillion, in excess of any cost borne by the Iraqis themselves."
Wolfowitz is a fucking tool, and he has done everything in his power to distance himself from the fray that is the war in Iraq. This nimrod was part and parcel of the group that planned and executed the beginnings of the war. He needs to be singled out on the same level as Rummy and Bush when it comes down to the idiots that got us into this nightmare.
Its a good read if you wish to avail yourself of Scheer's words. They echo many of my sentiments from the August post. I want a strong military, I just don't want private corporations little greedy fingers involved in it without tremendous oversight by our legislative branch.... I am looking at you the Democratic-led 110th Congress.

The weekend is almost here! Actually, it has started early for me. I took the day off because I have a wedding to go to today! Our friends, Edwin and Chad (Edwin is on the very left and Chad is beside him) are getting married today and I am so happy for them.
Saturday will be a quiet day of bumming around with Joe and on Sunday I am going for lunch with Jen and Teira. So it should be a very nice next few days.
What are your plans?

Looking at box stock props, the Trophy is a good but the Pro Max should offer better overall performance and durability. The 8″ jack plate might offer a little better performance when you marry with the right prop. I think the Pro Max, with its tremendous cup wrapped around the blade tips, will give you what you're looking for with the set back. The Trophy is ″ in diameter. The Pro Max is ″. The props share the same hub size. The Pro Max doesn't have vent holes nor does it need them. There's enough exhaust venting over the small hub. The plastic blow out ring fitted over the front of the Trophy would hurt the Pro Max's planing performance. I think the Pro Max would be a fun prop for your set up.
Since Ruby and the introduction of RubyVM::InstructionSequence::load_iseq , we've been able to programmatically load ruby bytecode. By divorcing the process of running YARV byte code from the process of compiling ruby code, we can take advantage of the strengths of the ruby virtual machine while simultaneously reaping the benefits of a compiler such as macros, type checking, and instruction sequence optimizations. This can make our ruby faster and more readable! This talk demonstrates how to integrate this into your own workflows and the exciting possibilities this enables.

We get our hands on Toshiba's Qosmio and benchmark it in Crysis Warhead.
There is not much that the Qosmio does not have and cannot do, and in terms of gaming you will struggle to beat its performance at this price point in the mobile sector.
Granted, for the price one could build a monster Intel i7 rig with an Nvidia GTX 295 and 6GBs of super fast DDR3 memory, but if this appeals to you then the Qosmio is not trying to compete for your money.

Google and Virgin Group today announced the launch of Virgle Inc., a jointly owned and operated venture dedicated to the establishment of a human settlement on Mars.
"Some people are calling Virgle an 'interplanetary Noah's Ark,'" said Virgin Group President and Founder Sir Richard Branson, who conceived the new venture. "I'm one of them. It's a potentially remarkable business, but more than that, it's a glorious adventure. For me, Virgle evokes the spirit of explorers such as Christopher Columbus and Marco Polo, who set sail looking for the New World. I do hope we'll be a bit more efficient about actually finding it, though."
The Virgle 100 Year Plan's milestones will include Virgle Pioneer selection (2008-2010), the first manned journey to Mars (2016), a Virgle Inc. initial public offering to capitalize on the first manned journey to Mars (2016), the founding of the first permanent Martian municipality, Virgle City (2050), and the achievement of a truly self-sustaining Martian civilization with a population exceeding 100,000 (2108).
"Virgle is the ultimate application of a principle we've always believed at Google: that you can do well by doing good," said Google co-founder Larry Page, who plans to share leadership of the new Martian civilization with Branson and Google co-founder Sergey Brin.
"We feel that ensuring the survival of the human race by helping it colonize a new planet is both a moral good in and of itself and also the most likely method of ensuring the survival of our best – okay, fine, only -- base of web search volume and advertising inventory," Page added. "So, you know, it's, like, win-win."
"In the years to come, we'll be sending up a series of spaceships carrying (along with the supplies and tools needed to build the new colony) what eventually will be hundreds of Mars colonists, or Virgle Pioneers -- myself among them." said Sir Richard Branson.
If you want join (or invest in or otherwise assist this vast venture), you can read more here.
The original contingent of Virgle Pioneers will be selected by numerous criteria, including an online questionnaire, video submission, personal accomplishments, expertise in scientific, artistic, sociological and/or political fields of endeavor, and inadequate Google and Virgin personal performance reviews.

President Moon Jae-in again stressed the need for bipartisan efforts to deal with security issues Tuesday, saying the country can overcome any difficulty if all work together.
The remarks came in a meeting with the country's five highest leaders, including Prime Minister Lee Nak-yon and National Assembly Speaker Chung Sye-kyun.
"As you know, the reason our security condition is bad is because security issues are created by external factors, but under the current circumstances, there is little we can do about (it)," the president told the meeting held at the presidential office Cheong Wa Dae.
"But even though there are external factors, I believe we can surely overcome the difficulty as long as we remain united," he added, according to Cheong Wa Dae pool reports.
Tuesday's meeting marked the first of its kind since Moon appointed the new chief justice of the Supreme Court, Kim Meong-su. The top five leaders also included Kim Yong-deok, head of the National Election Commission and a Supreme Court justice, and Kim Yi-su, a justice and acting chief of the Constitutional Court.
The president also reiterated his call to create a permanent consultative body between the ruling and opposition parties and the government.
"I believe it will help bring people's minds together if a permanent government affairs consultation body can be formed to allow the ruling and opposition parties and the government to share their views and enable bipartisan efforts at least on security issues," he said.
The parliamentary speaker agreed on the need to address security concerns, largely created by North Korea's repeated provocations, and called for efforts to prevent security concerns adversely affecting the economy.
"I believe we must all join our efforts to make sure security concerns will not lead to economic difficulties," Chung was quoted as saying.(Yonhap News)

Humor is something that thrives between man's aspirations and his limitations. There is more logic in humor than in anything else. Because, you see, humor is truth. - Victor Borge
A long time ago I added the "how to of the day" to my igoogle. It was one of those many moments where I thought, "I'd like to be able to do something cool." I figured these how to's would help me to get something done, something blog-worthy. Unfortunately I have yet to find something interesting or do-able. Today had two. How to be Funny, which, we don't even need to talk about - I'm flipping hilarious. But I posted it for the not so funny people. Like the people who read my blog and think that I actually believe I'm dying, or the people who don't understand that I am sarcastic. Take a look, it might help to get in touch with your inner humor. It's a great stress reliever too.
The other thing was "How to build a simple wood truss" ...what do I need a truss for? Nothing, that's what. I want to create or do something interesting to show off on my blog...I didn't have in mind that I would be building my own house anytime soon (granted that would be blog worthy - but I am too lazy to take on such a project). This is why I have the dad I have, he can show me something practical and blog-worthy.
But who am I kidding? I don't even have the motivation to clean my bathroom...maybe I should focus on those things first and then move on to the extras, like building a table or bookshelf, or something cool like that. Ew, I just had an idea. Start simple, like adding an extra shelf to the laundry
room closet. That's been on the list for a while and all I need is to have dad come to the wood place with me to pick out a good piece.
P.S. I wasn't going to say what my good idea was, but I have learned that telling people what you intend to do holds you accountable...so here's to testing out accountability...and an extra shelf in that closest.

Dear home,
Not too much to report this week, but it was pretty good. Transfers are just around the corner, but I'm pretty sure I'll stay here. Good news, a few other Elders in our district traveled out here for P-day. We played poker with some fake money... And I cleaned em out! You should've seen them shakin in their boots. I never knew I had it in me, but I guess I've got a pretty good poker face. That, and I hustled them out of their money.
Well, I'm afraid that's about it for now. Not much else to say. Thanks for all the love and support!
Elder Brady
Feeling the Christmas Spirit thanks to Mom!
Elder Atkinson and I... and a few snowmen!
These peppers were much hotter than I thought they would be. Some of the most miserable five minutes of my life...

Grandma and Grandpa Rees... they were so great to take the kids for a couple of days. They moved to Arizona just in time!
