text: I feel like I should know this, but all of my impressions of the + thus far have been that it's a superior handler. I've got a + loaner right now, and it indeed handles the way I expected the car would handle from the beginning. Very happy with it. Today, I was waiting far too long to find a clear entrance into traffic. I finally decided to go in front of a truck and floor it (plenty of space, but I did need to move my rump once in traffic). I did, and floored it. The car sort of felt like an ICE with a supercharger or turbo. It accelerated, and then, maybe .8 seconds into it, the car felt like it hit a lower gear (or in an ICE, the turbo spooled up) and I felt like I was in a rocket. I've NEVER felt like that in my P85. Once I was off the main road and on a back road, I went to replicate the feeling to see if it had just been a fluke, and sure enough, that thing FLIES! So is there some acceleration improvement in the P+'s? Is it the wheels? Inverter? Inquiring (and jealous) minds want to know!

We have always wanted a good snack and drink cups attachment for the stroller.
It is useful because baby and parents need to carry drinks and snacks but don't have places to put them.
With this snack pod, parents can put two cups of drinks and/or snacks on the handle of the strollers.
People don't have to hold a cup on one hand and push stroller on the other hand.
I would recommend it to new parents.

They say life's hard for the marginalized. That the ordeals of being an outcast can get so unbearable it could make one's life a misery. Well, they're right.
As gay guys from a hostile environment, we do know a thing or two about social exclusion – and it sucks. But does this mean we have to constantly wallow in self-pity? Is that all there's to being marginalized?
When you know a lot of people are taking you as abnormal or sick, you've no choice but to prove to yourself – and to the people disrespecting you – that you're healthy and no less than anybody else.
When your friends question your capability on whether or not you can function as other people in the society, you try hard to prove them otherwise.
Strangely enough, our cause of despair might very well end up being our source of determination. If we really think about it, this rejection is also challenging us to be on our mettle.
Don't get it wrong, marginalization is not something to be welcomed or tolerated. But when life presents it nonetheless, we shouldn't just self-pity or seek the sympathy of others – that's what losers do.
However, if we accept it as a challenge and reorient our mindset likewise, we will be better positioned to deal with the situation – that's what would-be winners do.

Baby Jogger Madness - 7 hours
Badwater Solo Self-Sustained Prep
When you carry this much extra water, you can go places you would normally not be able to go because of lack of water. In my case, I decided to explore a few trails in the local mountains in an area that is far from any source of water, areas I would normally have to avoid for fear of running out of water.
After about 8 miles running barefoot up Little Tujunga Canyon, I turned off at Oak Springs and took a single-track trail (Oak Springs) and headed home through the mountains.
In order to go uphill on single-track, I had to pull the cart behind me, one hand on the extender pool, one hand on the buggy. It worked.
I really like this cart.
Are there carts made especially for off road towing?
PS. I have been drinking Accelerade this month. They sent me a month supply to test. To tell the truth, I really don't like the flavors much; however, I can tolerate the Fruit Punch flavor. They seem to use too much coloring. These drinks are too sweet and the after taste is strange. However, I did seem to have more endurance. I suggest they go with a less sugary flavor, or a no flavor version.

Tullamore hotel cleared after bomb hoax
A Tullamore hotel was one of four premises across three counties cleared on Saturday night after a bomb warning was received by the PSNI and passed on to the Gardai.
The call was received at around 10.30pm on Saturday night and lead to the evacuation of the Tullamore Court Hotel, The Bentley in Galway City, The Western Hotel in Claremorris and the The Planet Nightclub in Ballinasloe.
Each premises was searched following the evacuations but no devices were found.
Gardai are investigating the hoaxes and are asking for anyone with any information to contact them.

A Brave New World
Home Page
Welcome to Earth, one very much unlike your own. One in which the Western Roman Empire never fell to the barbarian incursions, or to the military in-fighting. As a matter of fact, the Roman Empire still exists in the lands you know as Italy and Spain. To the North is the Carolingian Empire, founded by Charlemagne, which spans the length of Europe from the English Channel to the Carpathian Mountains, the width from the Alps to the Scandinavian tribal lands. Brittany is just coming out of civil war, stronger and under the rule of the Tudors, though harried by Vikings, who still inhabit the cold North and now employ gun powder and steam ships to pillage the unprotected.
The European peninsula is filled with iron tracks criss-crossing the countryside, factories in cities spitting out black smog, and mines riddling the mountains. Magic has been smothered in iron and pollution, and the gods have been all but forgotten. Shipping conglomerates and the disillusioned alike, seek a new land to revive coffers and spirits. Some send more ships and people to the exotic locales in India and the Orient. However, eventually, eyes turn to the unknown West.
It is 2354 AUC (ab urbe condita), figured as AD 1601 by the Christian Byzantine Empire. Steam power has made trains, dirigibles, clockwork machines, and steamships possible. The New World is barely touched, each Empire holding a small portion of the eastern seaboard. Enterprising settlers have pushed inland to build fortified cities and outposts, laying the track as they go to stay connected to the civilized world.
The shipping interests have found many new foods, spices, and materials to ship back to the masses in Europe. Those that still worship the old gods mutter about the presence of magic and monsters, disturbed and excited by the prospect. Many are uneasy around the dark-skinned natives, especially given their lack of surprise at the European influx on their shores. The Eastern tribes were helpful and accepting, but retreated into the woodlands of the Appalachian foothills when the Europeans began to gobble up land, making war noises. The superstitious muttered about dark forests, and the British muttered about the old stories of Sidhe, not many willing to risk following the natives. Those who did take the risk either never came back or came back stark-raving mad about monsters and beautiful demons.
Fortified towns and outposts that reside outside the coastal cities have come to an understanding: if the Europeans do not get too inquisitive, the Natives are downright friendly, though there are stories from those who have crossed the river called Mississippi. They say that the plains on the other side are filled with blood thirsty savages that can run like the wind and command the earth to their bidding.
So if you are looking for a new adventure, a place that may still hold magic and monsters, maybe even the gods, then there is a lot of land to cover in the New World…

Eariler today, Bryan Mullen from the Tennessean quoted Barry Trotz calling out some of the higher paid stars on the team:
"When asked about a couple of forwards who have not been producing, Trotz had some pointed comments for those players.
"The guys who have been the most consistent are Sergei Kostitsyn and Shea Weber," Trotz said. "Where's (David) Legwand? Where's (Martin) Erat? Where's (Patric) Hornqvist? Where are guys who are supposed to score?"
"Some guys are just having a good 'ol time playing," Trotz said. "They're not producing. That's not what I want. I want steady production."
"I just don't need dry spells of one goal in 17 games if you're an offensive player," Trotz said. "That's a problem. With the talent level that some of the guys possess, that's way too long. That can't happen.""
Wow…PRETTY STRONG comments from Trotz about 3 of our top paid players. Are the comments deserved? Absolutely so.
For the most part, I don't think this has anything to do with the statistics of each of these players. The exception being Hornqvist, who has 3 goals in his past 14 games, which is just plain awful for the man who is supposed to be our leading goal scorer
Past that, you have to look at the work ethics of each player. Legwand works his tail off on the Penalty Kills…however that seems to be the only place he does much of any work at all, that and in the post-season. Erat seems to do all of his work in a circular 10-inch piece of ice that he may carve out in the offensive zone. And Hornqvist? Well, let's just put it this way. When you are 1 inch and 11 pounds smaller than Tomas Holmstrom and you MADE YOUR LIVING last season standing in front of the goalie and batting the trash into the net, how come you've stopped now that you're one year into your new contract?
I don't think the answers are very difficult for any of these players, however they go back to the most simplistic roots of the sport they play. So, that being said, if I was Trotz, I would pull each of the players off to the side and tell them the following:
Legwand: "Play FOR the post-season, not just IN the post-season. We need you here to be the leader you were always destined to be for this team, but have never really come to be. You are this team's VERY first draft pick and have been here as long as I have. C'mon Leggy, you know this team inside and out and you know how this system works. You are ONE hell of a penalty-killer and you know how to play two-way hockey, however that offensive presence of yours never TRULY kicks in until about the second week of April. We need it to kick in NOW and soon, otherwise we may not be on the ice on the second week of April.
You have so much potential Leggy, you always have, however you need to step-up and start earning your paycheck"
Erat: "STOP turning in circles in the offensive zone. Yes it's a great move, and yes it gets you open from time to time, but more often than not it doesn't produce anything. You have one of THE MOST deadly shots in the league, hands down, and every other team in the NHL knows it. Give the puck to someone else, get yourself in the zone, get open, and snipe the puck to the top corner. Every time the puck touches your stick, you need to be in a position to shoot at the net. That's what you are paid for. You're not paid to find the pretty pass or to try and skate through 3 players for a magical goal, you're paid to fire the puck as quick and as hard as you can past that goalie."
Hornqvist: "Patric, what I want you to do, is whenever we get the puck in the offensive zone and you are on the ice, get in front of the goalie and stay there. DO NOT MOVE unless the goalie moves. You mirror the goalies EVERY move. Now, sometimes Shea is going to fire it your way, that's why your going to have to be on your toes and make sure you don't get hit with it. Other than that, if you would simply block the goalie from seeing anything, then you would make us one of the MOST offensively dangerous teams in the league. Yes, I know you do a good job for the most part of staying in front of the goalie, but I want this to be your ONLY job. This is the ONLY thing you should ever be concerned with. If the puck is in the offensive zone and you are on the ice, do whatever it takes to screen that goalie and make sure he can't see a thing."
Of course, Trotz won't say any of that…well…maybe he won't, I can always dream! I think the major problem right now with the Predators is they aren't getting that presence in the crease. That is such a HUGE part of hockey and a responsibility that a lot of fans (and maybe players) think lie with Patric Hornqvist. However, what if Hornqvist isn't on the ice? There always has to be someone willing to get in front of that goalie and help block his vision, that way even the junk shots have a chance at getting in the net.
Ultimately, my point here is, if the Preds don't start focusing on the SMALLER aspects of their game (individually and as a team), then we're going to find ourself in the usual spot we find ourself. Either right on the edge of the playoffs or booted out of the first round
Thanks for reading!

How the 10 Commandment Can Save Your Life
I'm certain that if you've ever attended a Sunday school class you've heard of them. Probably you just grew up in a God-fearing home that kept close instructions to the commandments. Perhaps for your own reasoning you learned and became accustomed to keeping true to The 10 Commandments.
Many people ask me how I do it. How do I manage to be who I am even having gone through what I have and will go through in life? Some people think I'm some type of person that I get by off their assumption that I'm doing "something" other than living by faith and The Ten Commandments.
Well, I decided to explain my reasons that I glorify the name of God and exalt his Holy name. I wanted to share with others what brings me comfort through it all…
So historically and biblically speaking the commandments were given to the Children of Israel when brought to the wilderness after being removed from Egypt, from bondage. It was a collection of and still is to be kept through out all the generations of God's chosen.
Now let me clarify that nowadays there are many mixed generations, ethnically speaking as well as spiritually. So those who choose to live by God's commandments and continue to teach his way to the generations are considered his children. Those who believe in Jesus Christ and that God shall come again are his children. Anyone who is preparing to enter the kingdom of heaven by utilizing faith and being just in this lifetime are his children. I could go on but I'd rather get to how The Ten Commandments can save your life.
Now I'm not just talking your physical life right here right now, I'm also referring to your eternal life. The life your soul has after being on earth. We all who have read the Holy Bible know that there are only two places to go; either heaven or hell. The only way to enter heaven is by faith and an undying love for Jesus Christ and The Almighty God.
I can make this quite frank. If you chose to not live by the commandments you are highly likely going to end up with Satan in hellfire and brimstone for an eternity where no one can save you. If you chose to follow the commandments and be upright in all your ways you are most likely to be in heaven, at peace with Jesus, God and all of the Saints (Prophets) forever.
So back then and even now God's children were rebellious and preferred the ways of the world as opposed to God's way. God didn't approve and was utterly furious over seeing such madness and many times destroyed those who were against his ways. They are known as Anti-Christ. The reason God put rules in order was to help those who were good be able to survive in the midst of all the madness.
The madness consists of many of the things listed in The Ten Commandments that God says not to do. So let's get into the first commandment according to King James Version.
Thou shalt have no other gods before me. - Notice that gods isn't capitalized because they are obviously inferior gods that do exist. Many people here on earth refer to themselves as gods of who you should not choose their ways over God's ways as it is the first mistake you could make against God.
Can you think of someone that you've heard refer to themselves a god and what activities they advocate in this world that you might be inclined to try?
If you were the Almighty God and was aware that there were other gods (but nowhere near as mighty as you) who other people preferred instead of God how would you feel and would you be okay with that?
Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments. – So after other gods comes another unworthy act you could do that would reserve you a place in hell such as making graven images or the makings of things that are of the earth or heavens. Well, we certainly can look around and see many of these things in the world. Statues, medallions, carvings and such things that replicate actual things that GOD created first. But most of all God doesn't want you to serve them due to how jealous God gets seeing the people created by God go off to do things against God. However, if you can manage to keep God's commandments; God will shew mercy unto you.
Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain. – Even though God will show mercy for keeping the commandments, God is certain that anyone who takes the name of the LORD in vain will be guilty. Guilty isn't good so taking God's name in vain is against God's ways.
Some people use God's name to get what they want, when in their hearts they don't truly love God. Some like to use God's name in vain by going to churches and reciting a few scriptures but in their hearts and deeds lead sinful lives. People with bad intentions that say they are doing things for God use God's name in vain.
Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it. – This is one of the most forgotten and holiest commandments to keep the Sabbath, which is a day of rest and keeping for the LORD thy God. It is a commandment to still be hallowed in this day and for all the generations of those who plan to make it to heaven. God's Holy Convocations are also a Sabbath which in Hebrew is a day of rest.
The Ten Commandments are part of the Old Testament of the Holy Bible. The OT contains the law or in the Hebrew, torah. Even in the Book of Revelations of the New Testament, which contains the new promise, it refers those who want to survive Armageddon to resort to The Ten Commandments.
Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee. – Honour is much like saying I want to be good in the eyes of my Mother and Father. So God commands that you do your best to be a good child so that God will bless you with many days on the earth.
Some people have evil parents or one(s) who would inflict harm on their lives by misguiding them or leading them to believe wrong things are right. God still wants you to do as a good child would do in life. Allow God to handle everything else so that you can have a long life to do God's will.

How To Have Good Relationship
So many people have negative perspectives about relationships on
behalf of unfortunate experiences, however for anyone who wants to
have a great or at least good relationship; it is attainable.
First and foremost remember that if it's your first time in
relationship or getting into a new one to start with a clean slate.
Meaning, not holding anything against your new mate because of things
you've heard, seen or experienced in dating. Do not walk blinded
either, do keep in mind that there are unruly people who do not care
for a good relationship. Also keep in mind that someone else's
experience doesn't have to be yours, especially if it was a bad one.
Second, you should be open and honest. It doesn't mean to tell every
gory detail right away; however it is healthy to be clear and
realistic about your expectations and what can be expected of you.
For the third portion, remember that in a relationship there will be
great, good and not-so-good moments. Losing a family member, friend,
pet, job, or anything that can cause emotional turmoil is no reason to
turn against one another. It is a great time to express your concern
and care.
Experiencing challenges or hardships are all tests of faith, so it
isn't wise to look and expect leaving a situation to be the best
decision. Except when abuse or neglect is involved of course, then
those do not count.
How to have a good relationship really amounts to what both partners
bring to the relationship. Family and friends who inwardly despise
your otherwise great relationship may be an issue if one allows
themselves to be controlled by the thoughts and feelings of others.
So the serious parts are covered, though there's always more worth to
mention. Oh I mustn't forget another few key factors, loyalty,
communication and understanding, which I'll save for the end because
it's really the best.
Have fun together; make sure that you and your mate are compatible.
You don't have to like every single thing the same but there has to be
a mutual ground of willingness to do things together and enjoy every
moment of it. Create memories together, because if not you'll run out
of things to talk about and end up talking too much about other people
and their business!
Don't compare or share! Yes let your relationship be yours, everything
is not everyone else's business, so don't feel obliged to tell all the
details of your romantic getaway. Keep it blunt and basic by saying,
"We had a great time, really looking forward to going again." Or keep
it briefer than that. "It was nice, thanks for asking. How's
everything with you?" Change it up on a nose bucket. I mean if you
wanted all of that personal stuff available you could record and share
it, right?
Also keep in mind that some people fabricate of how "wonderful' their
relationship is by way of comparison, so again don't be compelled to
rate yours vs. theirs.
When it comes to intimacy be fair, don't harbor your sexual desires
with your mate. Enjoy one another and appreciate your oneness. Talk
about what you do and do not want to do. Accept having someone to
explore your sexuality with.
There are many ways to have a good relationship, but loyalty,
communication and understanding go hand-in-hand. Being loyal is more
than telling people that you are in a relationship; it is showing that
you are only interested in your mate. It is being there for your mate
as best as possible and being reliable to one another.
Communication helps in many ways and helps to build and clarify the
loyalty of the relationship. Talk about things that concern you, make
you happy or just topics that can lead to more conversation together.
Use the technology that is available to you and allow yourself to
accept that words and actions are the equivalent to complete
Interpreting how one feels or what one means and relaying it to how
you feel is what understanding is all about. Expression and perception
of another's expression is what understanding is. So remember to
express yourself and be clear, so that lines are not crossed.
So in closing be for one another and make the best of what you have.
That is how to have a good relationship.

" Well first, I appreciate being featured in the showcase. I watched the event in its entirety and found that they really went in on my showcase portion. I think if the videos weren't cued to start automatically that they would of spent more than five minutes a piece hiking on the video.
I think I took the criticism well. Everyone is entitled to their own take on things. My take is that they are too caught up in current trends and fads of what sounds and looks right, that they automatically were ready to dump on it. My video was referred to as "cheap looking" but I saw a video that may have been clear but looked like it was recorded off an Apple laptop, like for real there were no motions. They may have been afraid to talk all like that to the fellaz though.
As far as the "everything needing improvement" statements, which they all agreed upon. I feel there's room for improvement with everyone, even seasoned performers and entertainers are in need of some fine tuning.
Then there was a "throwback" comment which didn't quite offend me. I produced my track and wrote my lyrics specifically to sound that way. A lot of music today doesn't even have a hip hop vibe it just sounds like a bunch of robots and crazy hyped up beats and mixes. However everyone is entitled to their own opinions...
To me their criticism wasn't constructive, it was straight blows,bashing even. If you can sight a great Artist even through all the rest of the presentation then you reach out and be someone in their corner not adding to the negativity they already endure. One judge was likesomething along the lines of, "... family probably wasn't being honest." Well a lot of people have been negative, but for every negative I got lots of positives. For every negative, not anyone of them said hey I know someone who could do better videos or who could mix your songs for you and blahzay blah. It's like people get a kick out of being negative and then that's all they can offer. If I ever tell someone my feedback, it's going to be like... Well your video could use major improvements, as far as visuals, quality of the video itself. When you do your next video hit me up. That's constructive criticism.
Still I know how to take the good out of everything. I gained more exposure, spent 3 minutes and 22 seconds in the minds of others in the entertainment business and had fun, as usual.
Someone took my tweets on Twitter (seen below) as having been upset. I wasn't I was shocked though at how they instanly had like direct feedback. It wasn't suttle or nothing , but I saw one judge jammin, so in general I took it like the Champion that I am.
IAmWisdom #Izm #NBA @ShantaeSexy lolz People be talking about poor quality but forget to talk about their own poor quality #Coast2Coast #CantHEarYou #POWPOWPOW
IAmWisdom #Izm #NBA @ShantaeSexy I'm saying, just don't be a hypocrite...
IAmWisdom #Izm #NBA @ShantaeSexy 20h I ain't gonna do em like dat lolz
Overall it was good to be part of a showcase , an interactive one, I had fun listening to their views and watching other talents present themselves as well.
My daughters who also co-starred in the video with me enjoyed it beyond measure , not so much the critism we received, lol. So we had a great time and I will certainly take some of their advice. Well actually I already made up my mind regarding my future projects who I'd collab with prior to this. So in time you'll see more commercialized results in my presentations.
Lastly, I was noted as having "potential" by 2 of the 3 judges, which is greatly appreciated. I know my skills and what I have to offer,but sometimes other people acknowledge it and try to ruin things, just like there are people who try to deter you.
The craziest thing for me, is knowing the people I know who are skilled and have access to the better quality that is required and for wahtever reason they don't reach out. It just goes to show that I'll just have to work harder.
S/O to everyone who's been supportive since day 1 and who've joined the movement and support me now. S/O to my supporters of tomorrow too. Even if the fat lady sings, it still ain't over.

Volunteerism is a prominent form of community service, a duty, a task and even more so an initiative to engage in wage-free labor for the betterment of your environment and social life.
Some look at volunteerism as robbery, being that labor and time is put into projects and activities that do not seem to offer documented payout.
The truth is that in order to gain skills, sharpen work ethic and accumulate references volunteering can present many benefits for both the company and those who take action in building communities with their talents and skills.
Many volunteer projects lead to permanent job placement and could even lead to one's lifetime career.
Community Service is an alternate label for Volunteering; it is often given as an opportunity to give back to a local community in lieu of a Court Order, Job Search criteria, Government requirement or School project.
Non-profit organizations often seek the assistance of volunteers by way of current Clients or referred clientele. Not always are Volunteers offering their time due to a mandatory clause. There are people who generally enjoy helping others and being active in their communities. They are known as Community Activists or Community Leaders.
So now that the basics have been presented let's delve into what types are available. Just as any working role or position, you can fill a place and handle the more basic tasks. Due to the risk of insurance claim and to help maintain the privacy of the other Clients many volunteers are limited as to what they can do.
The more experience as a volunteer you gain the more you can add to your resume and can apply those skills in a permanent work environment. It's great to experience volunteerism so that you can get a feel of a particular work environment or show a potential Employer that you are adequate to fill an open Job Position.
Office Clerical, Industrial, Food Industry, Clothing, Non Profit and many more companies allow everyday people the chance to gain insight of projects and/or events that can open doors for an optimistic volunteer.
So what happens if there are limited volunteer opportunities in your area? You can always visit another community or even create your own project which can build momentum and become a career for you.
Keep in mind that when you offer or are selected to volunteer that it is a privilege. So be mindful to dress accordingly and have a winning attitude, one that displays your character and much charisma. Don't be afraid to offer your perspective and to learn a new skill or technique.
The best thing of all about volunteering is simply that anyone from any age group can enjoy being part of community opportunities. Most are short term projects so if being committed for a long time is of concern seek the type the best suits your lifestyle and schedule.
Keep in mind that new volunteers show up at doorsteps each and everyday, so treat your role respectively and welcome new volunteers by being a great role model of what a volunteer should be.
Here's an example of volunteering turned to a money-earning task. You see a neighbor who could use reading tutoring, gas cut, garbage taken out or a babysitter for a few hours out of the week. It may be fun to have some money coming in but think of how nice and helpful you're being by helping out. Again it can be short-term and you can help out say up to a month at max (for example) then as you veer into other activities in life you may find that you are still needed and that your services are valid and most importantly appreciated. Just that fast you've built a foundation for skills and talents.
So what are you waiting for there's a bunch of things you could be doing by now!
Volunteer Ideas: You can try these alone or with a group of friends.
addition to these activities you can always participate with particular
companies in your area that offer assistance to the community. Written by Shantae S. Esannason

Unexplainable Patterns/Behaviors
So the topics of coverage lately has been focused on relationships, love life and in general communication. This particular column is designed to expose the initial warning, red flag signs of a cheater.
Many relationships end because someone cheats. Whether they assume their mate is the one and tries to repay them or if they just want to be first, so not to feel like the sucker in the end.
Cheating leads to many problems such as broken homes, murder, suicide, rape, lying, abuse, sexually transmitted disease/infection, unwanted childbirth/pregnancy,changes in health and decisions for life, as well as many other unspoken of downfalls.
Did You Even Know? For the record, cheating is a form of domestic abuse.
What brings a cheater to cheat? Well many cheaters believe they have valid excuses for their decisions, while others do it for fun or because they can easily get away with it. Cheaters tend to cheat with many things in life, even how to survive on a daily basis. Which may be the reason people cheat in the first place. They've experienced something negative in life and feel that in order to not go through it in the future, they'd rather try to outsmart the situation at hand.
People who cheat are unhappy with their life and the choices from some point in life that they've made. In most cases, the person being cheated on hasn't caused the cheater to do so. It's mainly from a cheater's own thoughts of what could hopefully make them happy and also stems from greed; wanting to have everything that seems to be available to that person.
Cheaters however always get cheated on and the more they cheat in retrospect, the more they'll get cheated on in life. Unfortunately, you don't have to BE a cheater to get cheated on, sometimes cheaters use others who are likely NOT to cheat as practice. It builds their esteem to further cheat and they usually get the benefits of a real relationship in the meanwhile. The only bad part is, it excites the cheater to cheat even more, with their mind focusing in on how to outsmart the situation to avoid certain consequences and outcomes the next time around.
Though cheaters have plenteous reasons to do the things they do and though most find their reasons to be valid, there are 5 distinctive signs that can alert you that someone is a "cheater".
In no way is this article accusing or predicting anyone's personal life experience. The sole purpose is to raise awareness so you can make good decisions about what relationship is best for you.
If you or someone you know is in a situation where a mate/partner Is cheating, just remember that you don't deserve to be mistreated by anyone for any reason.
So, someone's being secretive... Is it they're ashamed to be with you? You're not allowed to be in places they happen to be? Or are you ready to consider some harsh reality? Your mate is cheating! Yes, there are some common situations of places a mate may not want their their mate to go to with them (ie. Work,school, etc.) , but what about if they choose to not tell you where they're going and what they really plan to be doing? A secretive partner is the top hint of a cheater, someone who's not fully committed to you. Remember a secret is something being held back because it could alter or ruin a situation.
If you come into such a situation you deserve to clarify any unsurities. Ask what is on your mind. If no answer, no matter who the situation involves, you deserve to know the truth. Even if it isn't that your mate is cheating you shouldn't ever be left in the dark about anything you and your partner have going on in life.
It's unhealthy to keep secrets, one can be led to create answers to their own thoughts, which may not be beneficial . Sometimes people go to who they think is a reliable source, who always will steer that persons mind in their own best interest. If you've had no problems talking about things in times past but suddenly there are secrets, there is someone else or others who your mate would hate to see in the same vicinity at once. Don't think for a second it's a pleasant surprise. Surprises always have a pleasant and happy vibe to it.
Now some may say "What if they know their ex may be at a usual hangout and don't want no problems to start up?" Get real! An "ex" is that for a reason and if your mate isn't ready to go public with a new relationship, then best believe there's more to it than what you'd like to believe.
Here is one that I actually took from one of my favorite movies, Two Can Play That Game. It's the wanderer. I admit, before seeing this movie I didn't ever consider looking as a sign of a cheater. However, in the movie a particular scene plays out, how it looks when a cheating man is overdoing the whole "looking" thing. Which made me see that it's certainly a cheating thing to do. I haven't had that experience but nowadays the Internet is flooded with new ways for men and women to overlook,if you know what I mean. Now it actually is a lot easier to tell who is a wanderer and more likely to be found a cheater in a relationship. Nowadays even females do this.
It's easy if you see your mate online "liking" many photos especially of people of their sexual preference, you can tell. Even the singles you can tell that they are racking up on who they'd like to add to their players list by being outrageous with Likes and Commentations".
Now a wanderer is one who is leisurely admiring other possible opportunities for intimacy. Think about it, unless you're swingers, in an open relationship or just not having a good relationship at all and are openly searching a new mate, a normal person would be totally offended seeing their mate wander into a trance over another or others. A person considering or actually pursuing others while in a relationship is a wanderer and will not stop. This person is sizing up their next chance to cheat on you and it would only be a matter of time.
So if you're in public together and your mate can't help but to be totally distracted by the same or opposite sex , do accept that if you weren't around, that the possibilities are endless.
Deception, the art of deceiving and one of the biggest characteristics of a cheater. Remember not all cheaters are proud to cheat in life. So they prefer to deceive you, by filling you up with thoughts of the type of person they are and what they have in life. They may lie about their material possessions, how they live and what they are accomplishing in life. Anything to get you to think they are incapable of cheating ,to loop you into what they do to you and others. If your mate has deceptive behavioral patterns they most likely are covering up and hiding who and how they really are. Even if you're in public and your mate tries to deceive a person in general, stop and accept that if they see it fit to deceive another for any reason, they may also see is as nothing to do the same towards you as well.
Excuses, excuses, excuses... People make excuses but for what? A full grown adult should be able to take full accountability for their actions and decisions. Well not cheaters, a typical cheater makes excuses when they're trying to cover their true intent to cheat. What person in their right mind would stay with someone they are completely certain is cheating on them? Think about it, the typical beginning of a cheating relationship...When your mate pursued you they wanted all of your time and give as much of their time as possible . Now suddenly they're too busy for anything that involves you.
So what more proof do you need? Yes, we live in a busy world but seriously, no one is too busy to respond and a person who is still interested in you will always find a way to make time. It's called sacrificing and all real committed relationships require that both sacrifice for one another. People take breaks to eat, chat with friends and even to use the restroom. So if all you get are excuses, you may be better off excusing yourself from that relationship.
An excuse is just an easy way out. Don't sit around for someone that wants out of a relationship and who's obviously not waiting or thinking about you! Be the stronger one, avoid a big mess and get out of that pretend relationship.
Now sometimes the excuse may actually make some sense, but don't be a fool. Sometimes a cheater is smart enough to cheat with someone who knows enough about you or cheating who gladly helps hand out excuses . This person would even go so far as to find out ways to get money, material and other things from you through your mate or partner. Yes indeedy, it's a crazy world out there.
Unexplainable Patterns/Behaviors
Lastly, the unexplainable behavioral patterns, such as going away, unable to be reached, unwilling to respond, excuses all for no apparent reason. Well apparently, your mate is hiding out somewhere else with someone else. Arguments about nothing, not the ones that start because of things that are actually taking place and sparks debate... Mainly the things like, "Why are you calling me, I'm busy..." things along that line and not fully communicating to avoid a dispute. The bottom and top line is if it doesn't make sense, if it doesn't add up, you need to find out what's going on, because more than likely your mate is with someone else or highly considering it.
Think about it, if there are problems , you're "in" a relationship, talking things out together is part of a healthy relationship. So do not make excuses for the unexplainables, you have to accept the proof.
So there you have it! Sometimes seeing it laid out in plain sight helps brings yourself to terms with what's going on. Too many people want love and accept this as a relationship. If your mate doesn't include you in their happiness it's because you're not really part of their happiness.
Remember to love yourself first by making sure you do not allow a person to treat you how you wouldn't want to be treated. If your partner doesn't see it as something they need to do then take it as a clear sign.
Here's a Biblical perspective about how Men and Women need to be towards one another. How a woman needs to accept as treatment from a Man and how a Man has to treat a Woman. If you get anything other than that it is a fair warning.
Matthew 5:28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.

Never have I been as proud, worked so hard, or been as worried as I have over this first issue of the season. The pressure, panic, and pleasure has brought back such vivid memories of our first issue back in August 2012. There were plenty of highs and lows in the months and years that followed but the one thing that never changed was the belief and support from our dedicated subscribers and team of contributors.
For this, I will always be grateful. I hope those who are reading Blowing Bubbles for the first time enjoy their first tastes of our writers' carefully crafted words.
We will have more of a presence outside our new home in the future and I hope you feel able to continue to support what we do by picking up a copy every month. If you can't get to every game, make sure you don't miss out by securing a subscription on our website.
Then, while you're online, follow us on Twitter and like our Facebook page. There has been so much love from the West Ham family over the past few months with our Farewell Boleyn commemorative issue and Summer Annual - long may this continue.
To our current subscribers, this one is on us. Thanks for all your kind words that have kept myself and the team going over the years. Here's to a great season.

The individuals who have had to deal with control orders, the more byzantine aspects of the Criminal Justice Act 2003, or have applied to have their DNA removed from the database after being wrongly arrested, know personally the unfairness of those measures. But the wider public also recoiled at what it saw. Such measures are anathema to British culture.

If you haven't heard of Demand Media, it is a new company by Richard Rosenblatt (former CEO of Intermix/MySpace) that more or less aims to create hundreds or thousands of niche content websites based mostly around a user community.
Sound familiar? It should, it is what myself, and many of the readers of this blog, already do (albeit without hundreds of millions in VC funding).
You can check out this article for more or read a profile in the most recent issue of Business 2.0.
The reason I'm blogging about this is, well, I think that with this company planning to acquire many existing niche content sites to build their network, there is a good chance that one or more readers of this blog could end up being bought up, especially those with large forums. What's more, where there is one company aiming to buy niche content sites, there are bound to be more as people play copy cat and catch-up.
It could be a good next couple of years for those of us with niche properties.
Wow, I read the article in Business 2.0 but I thought they were just going after generic domains rather than established sites.
You can count on me watching their moves very closely. In fact, I think Demand Media needs to go in my Google alerts.

drumBEAT Marketing UK is focused on delivering results through data driven methods. The whole approach is transparent because we like our clients to know exactly what we are doing, when we are doing it, and what results the work delivers. It is a simple and yet somewhat underused strategy that we work by.
Since we started working with them business has grown and we have done some major changes within our websites. Their online marketing experience and knowledge is excellent; this combined with their knowledge of websites and what it takes to make a business work is why we continue to work with them.
Robert Hogan, Owner Hogan Enterprises, USA
Nearly a year ago I had a business name, a logo and a big new idea, but found the technical aspects of marketing stressful. So based on a recommendation I engaged Chris and Matt to create a website that would do more than look good.
I now have a brilliant website, but more importantly I have a series of automated sales funnels that are driving leads into my business from a variety of sources. As a result of the work the Drumbeat team have done for me, I've gone on to convert these leads into new clients from around the world. Next month one of my new clients is flying me to Italy to deliver training to their global sales team!
If results are important to you, then you need to speak to Drumbeat UK!
Susan Marot, Succeed at Selling, UK
Since engaging the services of this incredible team to look after my websites and all of my social media I have been left literally breathless. Clever, creative, reliable, cost effective and....most importantly of all.....genuinely great people. If you need to raise your online profile and generate new customers look no further. Best move I ever made!
Belinda Darley, ABC Accounting
Great to have worked with the guys at Drumbeat Marketing, they built our website way beyond our expectations and we've had loads of positive feedback from it.
We chose to support a local company and were very pleased. They are very helpful with every aspect of our social media presence.
Sally Williamson, Williamsons Farm
Matt, Chris and the team have created a Masterpiece of a website for me! I receive compliments every day on the format, the content and the ease of navigation.
As a company they are professional, committed, driven to achieve, transparent, creative, talented and fun to work with. I went to them without any ideas. They listened to me, talked to me, valued and respected my views then created an awesome site. At times they were gently persuasive in guiding me in the right direction, based on their knowledge and experience.
It was exactly what I needed. The 'after sales service' has been excellent in supporting and advising me on social media. I have already recommended them to other sole traders and larger businesses too. Their web design has really 'kick started' my business in a very professional way.

"YALP has provided yet another volunteer opportunity for me to connect with Gettysburg College and with fellow alumni. My mentee, Bill,and I talk every week and share our experiences, challenges and successes in our careers and our daily lives. While the primary focus of the program is to help young alumni like Bill develop leadership skills through counsel and support as they progress through the early stages of their careers, I have found that he has helped shape my own leadership and management approach. Our regular conversations remind me of the challenges my own team faces, and contribute to my own personal and professional growth." ~ Jim Renner '91, YALP Mentor

Today I got home from college and I discovered could barely load a webpage, this was because my brother had left his computer on all day (even when he was out biking) to download a very long TV Show of about 20 seasons. When I told him he was being selfish he replied "do I give a f*ck?" He also left his laptop and Xbox on when he went shopping with our mum for a good half hour but had a go at me for turning them off. He regularly plays his music so loud I can hear it word for word on the hall way and sometimes my dad has to shout up the stairs 5 times before he hears. When he leaves and goes back into his room he slams the door no matter what the time. I have seen him on multiple occasions make a bowl of popcorn (leaving all his mess out) and get a pint glass of apple juice despite there only being one small carton. Is it just me or is he selfish. He does have a touch of autism but you wouldn't have guessed he had it unless you were an expert on the subject.

How to Find A Reputable Electrician
There are many horror stories around about unregistered people carrying out work which they are not qualified or registered to do. When planning electrical work in the home, it is important that the right person carries out the work. This isn't just looking at the bottom line price, it is about what you get for what you pay for and most importantly that the electrician carrying out the work is qualified and registered to do so.
The good electricians out there take pride in their work and have built up a solid reputation based on many years of hard work, there are also many keen electricians who are new to the industry who are anxious to make a good impression. Trade Skills 4U have put together some top tips to help find a reputable 17th edition electrician or domestic installer.
The first consideration is to know where to start looking. Many reputable electricians are found by word of mouth, so if a friend or neighbour has had work carried out on their own homes and they were happy this is a good start. If you do not have a reputable electrician in mind, a good starting point is to consult the Electrical Safety Register or ElectricSafe Register, which have been developed by the leading organisations in the electrical industry. All electricians on the registers have been assessed against rigorous standards for your reassurance.
Most people do not check that their electrician is qualified. This is fundamental to ensure your electrician is who they say they are. All reputable electricians are happy to show you the qualifications they hold. Typically qualifications are either C&G or NVQ detailing the extent of the qualifications and when they were issued. Don't be put off if your electrician is newly qualified, remember their skills and regulation knowledge will be well up to date.
Secondly, a reputable electrician will be happy to tell you about their Part P registration and which electrical governing body they are registered with. The 3 most common are the NICEIC, NAPIT and ELECSA. Trade Skills 4U recommend that you check directly with the governing body that your electrician is registered. Normally this is possible to do on line on the respective websites. Always look up the information independently to ensure the information you are looking at is genuine.
Before agreeing to have work carried out in your home, Trade Skills 4U recommend obtaining at least 3 quotations from reputable electricians. This will give you a good idea of the approximate costs of the electrical work. Ensure the quotation details the work the electrician will be undertaking and the cost of materials. Many people unwittingly accept a cheap quotation to find that materials are not included or there are 'extras' to pay for afterwards in order to deem the job complete i.e. certification.
Do not be afraid to ask the electrician questions. Many electricians will have a portfolio of work to show you or work done for past customers they are happy to show you. Also check on first impressions, does their work wear display their company logo? This shows pride. Do they turn up on time when they say to carry out the quotation? Do they have a sign written van, if not this could mean they are carrying out work for several different 'trades' for which they are not qualified. Remember a reputable electrician will want to tell as many people as possible they are an electrician, not trying to hide it! If something doesn't feel right or you feel pushed into having the work done, it will be best to walk away.
Know exactly what you are paying for before accepting a quotation, such as what kind of guarantee the work will have. Most work is covered by a guarantee issued by the electrical governing body the electrician is registered with. This means that if a problem develops in the future and you cannot contact the electrician who carried out the work, you can go to the governing body directly and they will find an electrician to carry out the work on your behalf. Other questions to ask is whether the price includes VAT. If it doesn't, it can make the price appear cheaper when actually it may work out more expensive when adding the VAT onto the cost. Finally, always check the electrician has insurance, this is your peace of mind that should a mistake or error occur (and it can happen) that the insurance is valid and a claim can be made.
Spending some time choosing the right electrician for your electrical job can save you a lot of stress and expense. Householders who have been on the receiving end of an unscrupulous trades person always wish they'd done more research before hand.

Basingstoke Aquadrome played host to the Hampshire Lady Richmond Brown Trophy Tournament for Senior men on the 18 May 13. Competing this year were teams from Southampton (University and City), Portsmouth and Basingstoke Bluefins. The matches for the tournament were played over 2 quarters. Within which each team would play each other.
Basingstoke Bluefins 9 man team (the smallest of all teams present) consisting of Mike Sheath, Mike Steer, Trace Morgan, Gavin Bridger, Tristan White, James Stone, Ade Davey, David Trewhella and Iain Masson (player/coach) opened the tournament with a game against Southampton Uni very spritely. They exploited Uni's poor handling and positioning skills by marking tight and holding good defensive positions. This provided Bluefins an opportunity to counter attack to great effect. Running up a score of 8 – 0 by the end of the first quarter with the goals from Davey x 3, Steer x 3, Stone x 1 and Trewhella x 1.
The second quarter saw Uni coming slightly back into the match with a couple of early goals. This put some pressure on Bluefins. However, with a reply of another 6 goals (Trewhella x 3, Masson, Steer and Stone all with 1 each) from open play. This saw Bluefins the surprise worthy winners by 14 – 4.
Basingstoke Bluefins second match was against a stronger Southampton City side. This was a much closer match. Playing very similar traditional play both teams took up high defensive positions behind the ball tactics resulting in a much closer match. Goals from Davey, Steer and Trewhella ensured that Bluefins remained in the game. The score at the end of the first period it was 4 – 3 to Southampton.
The second quarter saw Bluefins come back into he came more by improving their general play. Although it was still a tight match, goals Morgan, Davey and Trewhella and some great stops by Sheath in goal saw Bluefins tie level. A goal from Davey and another from a man up position by Bridger close to the end of the match saw Bluefins into the final with a win of 8 - 6.
The final was against a surprising Portsmouth side. Who like Bluefins had won both their matches by very similar score lines.
Opening play was fairly tight with Portsmouth having the better of the play in the first quarter of the final. This was largely due to Bluefins being unable to create flowing attacking play when taking the ball from defence into attack. Goals Davey, Steer x 2 and White gave Bluefins a slight lead at half way point by 4 – 3.
The second quarter was played very similar to the first with nothing between both teams. An early goal from Stone saw Bluefins stretch their lead to 5 – 3.
However, the pressing of the Portsmouth team did not give up. They drew level and then scored again on the counter attack with less than two minutes to go. This put Portsmouth into the lead by one goal.
Despite a very spirited effort with some fast and furious play from Bluefins resulted in Steer and Davey both going very close. But, Bluefins could not get the much needed equaliser. With the game (and the trophy) finishing 7 – 6 in Portsmouth's favour.
The team concluded later that although losing the final was a disappointment, beating both Southampton sides and getting into the final on the same day was an unexpected positive.
Additionally, it's the coach's view that the lessons learned should help support the growing momentum of constructive and more disciplined play from the Senior Men's Team.
Well done to all those who played.

Turkish prosecutors on December 1 ordered the seizure of assets of Reza Zarrab, the Turkish-Iranian gold trader who has implicated Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan in the New York trial of a banker accused of violating US sanctions against Iran.
Zarrab, who has pleaded guilty to running the money laundering scheme that dodged the sanctions and is giving evidence for the prosecution in return for leniency, is a wealthy 34-year-old businessman who lived in Istanbul with his pop star wife. The Istanbul prosecutor's office said the assets of both Zarrab and his family would be confiscated as part of an investigation against the trader, Turkey's state media reported.
The media outlets also quoted Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildirim as saying that his hope is that Zarrab will "turn back from his mistake" in co-operating with US prosecutors.
Zarrab is testifying against a former deputy CEO of Turkey's state-owned Halkbank, Mehmet Hakan Atilla, whom he allegedly conspired with to assist Iran in laundering money earned on gas and oil sales to the Turks from 2010 to 2015. On November 29, he told the federal court he paid Zafer Caglayan, then Turkey's economy minister, bribes amounting to more than $59m to facilitate deals with Iran. Though charged, Caglayan has not surrendered himself to US law enforcement although he has publicly refuted Zarrab's claims. Atilla has entered a not guilty plea.
Zarrab has further alleged that in 2012 he was told by Caglayan that Erdogan, who was prime minister at the time, had instructed certain Turkish banks to participate in the sanctions busting scheme.
Speaking on November 3 in a televised address to a congress held by his ruling AK Party, Erdogan said Turkey had not violated sanctions on Iran. "What did we do? We purchased natural gas from a country within our agreement so that our citizens would not get cold in the winter and the economy would keep running," he said, adding that Turkey "strictly" adhered to US and UN sanctions.
Without mentioning the Atilla trial specifically, Erdogan also said that Turkey cannot be tried by "virtual courts" in the US that have no jurisdiction over his country. He then accused the US courts of being made up of "lousy FETO [Fethullah Terrorist Organisation] representatives". That jibe was a reference to Muslim cleric Fethullah Gulen, who lives in self-imposed exile in rural Pennsylvania, and his supporters, whom the Turkish government blames for the attempted coup of July 2016. Gulen strenuously denies any involvement.
Erdogan and the government, who have kept Turkey under a state of emergency since the foiled coup, have lately claimed that the sanctions busting trial is the result of fabrications that stem from a Gulenist conspiracy to destabilise Turkey's economy.
US prosecutors have overall charged nine people in connection with the alleged money laundering and sanctions busting but only Zarrab and Atilla have been arrested.

Live From Mars was active July 1996-December 1997.
Mission Planner, Pathfinder
Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, California
My Job
I am one of several flight engineers on the Mars Pathfinder project. Flight engineers are responsible for the day-to-day operations of the Mars Pathfinder lander and the rover, which will land on Mars July 4, 1997. Each flight engineer specializes in some specific areas of the spacecraft's operations such as long-range planning of activities, commanding the spacecraft, and monitoring the health of the spacecraft in flight. My areas of specialization are in planning the spacecraft's activities, and in sending commands to the spacecraft. These two areas are known as mission planning and flight control. Many of the flight engineers also double as flight directors and have the primary responsibility for ensuring the health and safety of the entire spacecraft.
As a mission planner, I try to balance the requests of the various scientists and engineers who want the lander and rover to perform specific tasks. I'm sort of like a parent who tells you that you can't install Blood-n-Guts 3.4 on your computer at home because your dad wouldn't have enough space left over for BizSnooze Pro 2.0. I have to tell the scientists that they'll have to take fewer pictures because you can't fit 64 megabytes worth of photos of the Martian surface into 48 megabytes of memory. I also get to tell the engineers that built the lander that, unlike the Energizer bunny, the batteries on Mars Pathfinder won't keep going, and going, and going...
As a flight controller, I get to talk with the people in California, Spain and Australia who operate the Jet Propulsion Laboratory's Deep Space Net (DSN). The DSN is the critical communications link between Earth and Mars Pathfinder during its mission. The DSN transmits the commands that tell the spacecraft what to do, and receives the images and other information that the spacecraft sends from Mars.
My Career Journey
For as long as I can remember, I have been interested in science and technology. My curiosity has always been the driving force behind my education and career choices. The majority of my work experience has been in software design and development for a variety of computers. Interestingly enough, I've never really studied computer science in a formal environment; all my experience with computers has been self-taught or acquired on the job. I have a B.A. degree in Psychology from Occidental College in Los Angeles where I studied psychology and philosophy as an approach to cognitive science, which is the multidisciplinary study of how humans think and learn.
Why I Enjoy my Job
I enjoy making computers do the things that I want them to do, either because I've learned how to use them properly, or because I've written the software that makes them work. I have worked on several different projects during the 10 years I've been at JPL, all of them involving computers. I don't think that I'd like a job that didn't involve computers in one aspect or another. I enjoy working at JPL because it is easy to find interesting projects which use computers. I've written software for microcomputers using HyperCard, and software for larger computers to control robots at the Kennedy Space Center. I've written software user's guides, and now I'm helping to guide the Mars Pathfinder spacecraft to Mars!
As a Kid
As a kid, I remember getting a subscription to "Scientific American" magazine for my 13th birthday. At that time I couldn't understand most of what was written, but I was interested in the kinds of articles that were in the magazine, articles from all areas of science. I was never a "Popular Mechanics" kind of kid, never interested in just one area of science, I was interested in all areas. I'm sure that because my interest wasn't very focussed, I didn't become an engineer, doctor, or scientist. Instead I learned about the computers which everyone needs to use in their scientific work.
My first experience with computers came in high school when my physics teacher acquired two new Apple II computers. I was able to tinker with them during after-school hours. I would take out "how-to-program" books from the local library and type the computer program examples into the computer to see how they worked. During summer school, I learned how to program in FORTRAN using punch cards on the school district administration mainframe computer; that was my first, and last, formal class on computer programming.
I've worked in a computer store assembling computer systems for sale, I've taught college extension courses on using computers in business, and I've owned my own business offering computer training to businesses and their employees.
I still don't understand absolutely everything in "Scientific American," but I still enjoy reading and learning about new areas of science and technology.
Some Personal Information
I live in Arcadia (population 65,000), a few miles east of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. My wife, Felice, teaches fifth grade in Duarte, a few miles east of Arcadia. We have two beautiful children, Jenna (age five-and-a-half) and Brandon (age three-and-a-half). Jenna attends kindergarten and daycare where she was recently named Student of the Month. Brandon goes to preschool where he was recently given a promotion to the position of "gate-holder" (he gets to hold the wrought-iron gate open as the other children pass through on the way to recess). We have three cats named Alex, Nikki and Marble, and two goldfish named Azalea and Big Max. Although born in Chicago, I consider myself a Californian, having lived in Arcadia for 30 years. I am 32 years old.

UPDATE: Sony has confirmed that the maintenance has been delayed and will not be going ahead. Game on!
Sony have announced that the PSN will be undergoing more maintenance tomorrow on Thursday 1st March from 16:00 until 07:00 on Friday morning.
As per usual, the PlayStation Store (PC and Console), Customer Account Management, and Account Registration will all be out for the count during that time.
It's also worth noting that although in the past users signed in already have sometimes been able to stay logged in, this will not be the case tomorrow. Sony say that "users who are already signed into their account on PlayStation Network before the start of the maintenance will not be able to stay signed in to their online session and will be signed out at the start of the downtime period."
Let's hope the leap year doesn't break everything.

I might as well try and jump into my first blog entry for you LJs. I've been lurking and commenting from time to time. So here we go!
I bought this plane off eBay a year Go probably, and right from the beginning, it had a loose tote. Just enough that it had a wiggle to it. I surfed the world over, and found some failed attempts mostly, with a few good ideas as well, and I decided to try a grinder.
I removed the screw from the tote, and screwed it back into the socket on the base of the plane. I marked where the socket struck the threads, so I'd have an idea of how many threads to remove. I had 6 threads beyond the mark when I removed the screw. I fired up my HF 8" grinder, and removed a thread at a time, testing the fit each time. Three threads later, the tote snugged right up nicely.
Now to get her sharpened up! And to figure out how to embed photos, without using another service!!
Thanks for looking.
