A short circular walk that offers some wonderful views of the Warwickshire countryside. The route passes through the village of Napton on the Hill with its fine windmill.
Calculated time is computed with the distance, the height difference, and an average speed of 2.2 mph. For an intermediate walker, this time includes small breaks.
Please note that since publishing, the Bridge Inn, which is the stating point for this walk, is currently closed. There is parking in Napton near the church if the Bridge Inn car park is closed.
(D)From the car park of the Bridge Inn, turn left onto the main road to proceed over the canal bridge then take the first lane on the right after approximately 150 metres. Immediately ahead, but slightly to your left, take the metal kissing gate and go up the field, and on through a second kissing gate, keeping the hedge right to take another gate in the field corner continuing on a rising path. Take the next gate walking half left diagonally across the field and through a second gate to cross a small field to a lane. To your right you will have a good view of Napton Windmill, which can be traced back to 1543 but is now a private residence not open to the public.
(1)Go left down the surfaced lane bearing left at the fork, passing "High View" and "Hill Rose" cottages turning downhill into Chapel Lane and bearing right at the concrete bollard past an attractive thatched cottage - The Old Bakery - on your right, to reach the road. Continue gently downhill through the village turning left at the bottom into Dog Lane.
(2)Go past St Lawrence School coming after a few yards to a waymarked bridleway just before the last houses on your right. Proceed along the bridleway ignoring the first stile on your left and continuing on to take the metal gate ahead of you into a field. Keep ahead with hedge right through two fields and two metal gates, then following the waymarkers left through a third gate for 80 metres then right through the next gate. Keep ahead with hedge right, through two fields eventually turning right onto the Millennium Way at the metal gate.
(3)Keeping hedge right you will notice a farm appearing a few hundred metres to the left. When you draw level with the farm you will be at a gate, which leads to a minor road. Here you will notice the distinctive black Millennium Way waymarker. Take the gate and go right up the road which is in effect continuing in the same direction as the path you have just left. After some 500m come to a T-junction, go ahead signposted Napton / Stockton. Eventually, pass three cottages left (The Fens) and immediately take driveway on left (taking the small gate to the right of the wrought iron gate).
(4)Proceed up driveway going right behind garage with hedge right to come to stile. Take stile going half right up centre of field to come to a rather makeshift bridge in the dip. Cross the bridge and go half left up field to exit by far left corner gate to road. Go right on road over canal bridge then immediately left down onto the Oxford canal.
(5)Go left under the bridge and ahead with canal right. Looking ahead you will have a fine view of Napton- on-the-Hill with its high set windmill. This canal was designed by James Brindley and eventually links up with the Grand Union canal further north. Follow down a flight of locks and pass The Folly Inn on your left. Continue on the towpath skirting around Napton Hill until you come to bridge 111. Pass under the A425 South to Daventry road taking the gap immediately left to reach the end of the walk at the Bridge Inn.
Please note that on 5 Nov 2018, work was being carried out on the above portion of the canal making it impassable. Please check for canal work before venturing on this route.

A five mile circular walk from Napton offering wonderful views and the opportunity to see at close quarters the famous Napton Windmill. Over half the walk follows a delightful section of the Millennium Way, which is clearly waymarked with the distinctive black circular markers. The walk starts from The Bridge Inn, situated just by the Oxford Canal close to Napton-on-the-Hill on the A425 (grid ref. SP456619).
In the Middle Ages, Napton was one of the largest towns in Warwickshire with a population of approximately 1000 people, which is more or less the same as today. The name Napton is derived from the Anglo Saxon meaning hilltop settlement. A brief history of Napton on the Hill can be found at http://www.napton-on-the-hill.co.uk . During the second half of the walk you enjoy a delightful section of the Millennium Way.

Start of the walk - Bridge Inn car park does not exist the Bridge Inn is now a residential house, parked across the road in a lay by which was not ideal as its run down ,would be better to start from the church in Napton. Number 1 was confusing from D the path was opposite more then left. Point 2 the bridleway was fine once you reach the fields and gates they were almost impassable due to mud tractors had cut up and recent wet weather and farmer had chained one of the gates but managed to get over a wooden fence everything else fine defiantly recommend Folly Inn lovely welcoming pub
Thank you for your feedback, we'll incoporate these points into the walk description to make sure it is as clear as possible for future walkers

In Birmingham the weather was dull on this Guy Fawkes day. As usual I travelled to the walk venue via B and minor A roads - Wythall - Hockley Heath - Old Warwick Road - outskirts of Warwick and Leamington Spa , circling Southam to the walk start point. Napton is neat village with a Post Office/general store (for refreshments to take with you) and I parked across the road from here.. The instructions are good for this map. A couple of things. At POINT 4 - turning left immediately after The Fens houses I was faced with an impressive "heavy guage" wrought iron gate. I missed the small gate to it immediate right so carried on only to trepass on a private drive which led to a dead end field (but it looked genuine to me !!) A local resident came to her and soon politely put me right and I returned to POINT 4 of the walk and proceeded in an orderly fashion. The weather, now, (12:00) was brilliant sunshine with lovely views towards Napton OT Hill and the church and windmill. There was a second problem at POINT 5 - not my navigation or confusing map/route. As I ventured along the beautiful and quiet Oxford Canal as per the notes from bridge 115, I found that I could not proceed much further than the locks before bridge 114. The Waterways people were carrying out major civil engineering etc works so there was NO way past this point. I decided to return to 115 and make my way back via 4,3,2,1 points on the map. As it looks like MAJOR works they may be there fro sometime - so I suggest we all check Canal "road works" before venturing on any tow path routes. Other than that I really enjoyed Hikideas
plan and map and will be using them regularly in future with confidence.

Hi We did this walk. Enjoyed it, especially the canal part. Have some comments however: For future walkers the Bridge Inn is no more. It used to be positioned where the A425 crosses the Oxford canal close to Napton. We parked at St Lawrence church on the hill, but found it difficult to orient ourselves for the walk - might just be our map-reading skills (or lack of!), and probably missed some good bits like a clear view of the windmill. Also this meant the walk ended with a steep climb. Next time we plan to park at the Folly Inn on the canalside. Only other comment is that some of the field gates were chained or tied shut with string by the farmer and were very tricky to climb over as no stiles.

The starting point is the Brisge Inn that doesn't exist anymore. There is a note in bold further down the page that explains this but I hadn't read this at first. It would have been better to have updated the directions than leave as a bold sentence that could (and was) be missed.
The long walk along the canal is a bit difficult due to the hedges being overgrown and the path getting narrow due to banking errosion. Not easy for someone who isn't that steady on their feet.

Walk up to Windmill is VERY steep - longer but easier following road. Views on walk are very good as is Folly Inn pub on canal
Thank you for your feedback on this walk. If you would like to share any of the other walks you mentioned around Napton on Hikideas, using the walking route planner, your contribution would be most welcome!

Apart from cattle damage at field gates and climbing road to Windmill (for spectacular views) its an easy walk.
We parked near Church. There are also at least 3 other walks near Napton with half their routed alongside canal
The surrounding hills provide a great view.
Thank you for the useful feedback on the Bridge Inn, we've updated the walk sheet to let other hikers know
Just to let you know, The Bridge Inn, stating point for this walk, is now closed. There is parking in Napton near the church if the Bridge Inn car park is closed as well.
Hi Andy,
Thank you for your feedback, that's really helpful. I've made the changes you outlined to the walk route, so hopefully it will be clearer to follow now
Best wishes,
Hi ,
Did the walk again and sussed out where I went wrong.
So in (D) the first paragraph / second sentence the first field has had a fence built across it with a kissing gate so you go through 3 gates not 2 before you do the half left bit.
Also in (2) they've built some more houses so where you say in the first sentence on this section 'just past the last house' you need to amend it to 'just before the last houses'
Hope this helps.

text: Buy Buying Guides 6 Important Mice Features Pay attention to these details before you buy a new mouse Share Pin Email Print Jonathan Kitchen | Getty Images Buying Guides Computers & Tablets Accessories & Peripherals Desktops Tablets Laptops Printers Smartphones Games & Consoles Gadgets TVs & Home Theater Cameras Audio by Lisa Johnston A writer and editor who has been covering computer peripherals and other consumer electronics since 2004. Updated March 10, 2019 Most desktop computers ship with a mouse — often a basic one that might get the job done, but without special features that might drive additional value. When you upgrade mice, think of six different characteristics to fine-tune your shopping list. Ergonomics If you're a cube-dweller and you're going to be using this mouse for daily tasks, go with an ergonomic mouse. Although the definition of ergonomics varies from brand to brand, the mouse should at least contour to the shape of your hand. The only downsides are that there is usually a learning curve while you adjust, and ergonomic mice aren't ambidextrous. Size As with ergonomics, size definitions differ from one brand to the next. What qualifies as "full sized" or "travel sized" may not be what you're used to or what you need. Although most mice in retailers are trapped behind that darn clamshell packaging, some retailers have sample units on display that you can touch. Also check out the computer display in the store to get an idea of what's comfortable for you. Battery Life If you go wireless, you're going to be replacing batteries from time to time. To extend the battery life of your mouse, look for one that comes with an on/off switch and use it. Receivers As with battery life, this is a concern for wireless mice. Does it use a full-sized receiver that juts out of the laptop, or does it use a nano receiver that lets you pack away the laptop without needing to be removed? Does it come with a receiver placeholder? Like USB flash drives, ballpoint pens and spare keys, mice receivers often end up in the "big pile of stuff in heaven," to paraphrase George Carlin, so having a magnetic placeholder or a designated slot is immensely helpful. Likewise, check to make sure the mouse comes with the appropriate receiver. This usually isn't a problem for mice that use 2.4GHz wireless technology, but many mice use Bluetooth and often don't come with a Bluetooth receiver. Check to see if your computer has integrated Bluetooth before you purchase a Bluetooth mouse. Programmable Buttons Some people can't live without their programmable buttons, while others never figure out how to set them. As with ergonomics, programmable buttons can be indispensable time-savers if this is going to be your everyday mouse. If you're not sure you'll use them, look for buttons that are discretely placed so you can ignore them. Gaming Response Fans of online PC games require mice that can respond quickly and precisely. Attributes to consider include the mechanism of input (a laser, which sometimes doesn't work on some reflective surfaces, or a rubber ball), the resolution of the tracker and the speed by which motion input feeds to the computer.

Once you get the hang of it, the mattress inflates quickly. Deflation and packing goes very quickly too. Seems to be a durable material and should hold up to use.More > < Less
I LOVE how fast this pad deflates and the seat option! I am able to inflate the AirPad 2+ 10x faster than a conventional valve, about 20 breaths instead of 5 minutes :) . I did watch the instructional video a few times.More > < Less
I am having a bit of trouble inflating the mattress "rapidly", but I am getting the hang of it! I di like it.
Very comfortable and feels strong. Can be hard to stay on it though. A lot harder to blow it up then they made it look.
I couldn't get the wind to help me inflate it, so had to do it manually. Good mattress once it's inflated.
About Windcatcher Gear
Catch Some Air
The valve has an invertible release, which means it keeps the air in as it inflates. It also makes deflating super fast, letting you flatten it out and roll it up for storage.
Ryan Frayne created the AirPad 2+ after wasting precious beach time trying to inflate a swim float. This sparked his idea to harness the wind to do the hard work. You don't need a pump or electricity. And there's no need to put your mouth directly on a plastic valve.
There are built-in straps to transform this mattress into a cushy seat—great for camping trips, picnics, or just lounging in the yard. Wherever you use the AirPad 2+, the amazing inflating—and deflating—act is part of the fun.

What I Loved: It's hard to think of a better place to work than the Art Institute of Chicago (rated yet again one of the top museums in the world), and Daniel has that privilege every day. He also has the accompanying sense of style. I liked how he paired the light(er) denim jacket with black jeans, but what really makes this ensemble pop is that untucked, patterned shirt. The red and cyan (opposites on the color wheel) pair perfectly with the jacket, and that pattern gives me all sorts of southwestern vibes along with a vague memory of what the sun looks like. Thanks, fall-in-Chicago. Finally, the clear frames of his sunglasses don't steal attention away from the clothing, and his canvas bag picks up the cyan in his shirt for a perfect match.
Style Tip Challenge: Go Bold. Try layering a patterned shirt under a solid neutral, lightweight jacket and neutral pants.

Being engaged can be just about the most exciting period of a person's lifetime. Dreams start becoming reality, love flourishes, and anticipation is relentless. I helps engaged couples, communicate their love to the world. I work with them to design images that reflect their personalities, their interests, and most importantly, their love. I know about all the demands put on engagement photos and they must look great in the newspaper, on "Save the Date" magnets, in an album, on a t-shirt, in a slideshow – and I create and choose photos to meet every need. If love is in the air, I can capture it.

PAS has veered from its policy of contesting in only Malay-majority seats in elections in Sarawak by declaring last night that they would contest in one Dayak-majority seat, one Chinese-majority seat and the new mixed seat of Samalaju in Bintulu in the coming state polls.
They would also field one non-Muslim candidate from its supporters' wing (DHPP), one woman and re-contest in four of the five seats they contested in the 2011 state elections.
PAS however withheld disclosing who the candidates were and party president Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang said they "have been picked" but their names would only be announced after their candidature has been approved by the Shura Council, which will meet on March 20.
PAS had earlier confirmed that it would contest in 11 seats in the state elections which are likely to be held next month.
The Dayak-majority seat is Kakus in Bintulu and the Chinese-majority seat is Pujut in Miri.
The other eight seats announced by Deputy President Datuk Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man in Kuching were Samariang, Pantai Damai, Muara Tuang, Sadong Jaya, Sebuyau, Beting Maro, Jepak and Lambir – all Malay-majority seats held by Parti Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu (PBB), the lead party in the four-party state Barisan Nasional coalition.
PAS had contested in Tanjung Datu, Muara Tuang, Sadong Jaya, Sebuyau and Beting Maro in the 2011 poll.
It has given up trying to re-contest Tanjung Datu, and topple Chief Minister Tan Sri Adenan Satem there, as the task could be herculean.
In the 2011 elections, PAS fielded housewife Nani Sahari for a three-way fight which Adenan won by garnering 76.5% of the votes to Nani's 18.2%.
An independent candidate Gilbert Asson Kulong picked the remaining 3.9%.
When asked why PAS had decided to field candidates in the non-Malay seats, Hadi said it was based on the current political trend and in the believe they could win.
Hadi said in the last general election, PAS had made breakthroughs in "Umno stronghold state" Johor where they won four seats and even in Chinese-majority Penang where they won one.
"This showed we can win anywhere. Not impossible to win these seats."
There could be last minute changes to the 11 seats, PAS election director Datuk Mustafa Ali said, as at least three seats – Kakus, Jepak and Lambir – were also claimed by the only political ally they have, PKR.
He said they still in discussion with PKR on the overlapping claims and to avoid fighting among themselves in these seats.

Today's the Day/
With my husband who has been my rock and has always been there for me through the highs and the lows, we went to the factory to see the products being filled. I had thought about how I might feel and would I cry when the realisation finally hit that I had achieved something really awesome, I can only say I was beaming with so much happiness. I am so proud of myself that never during this whole project did I ever think of giving up, my passion and knowing that throughout all of this Joy has been with me.

I've known Becky Murdy for over six years. When we first met, we were working on the same Community Partnership team for Google+ Sports. She was working out of their Boston office, while I was working out of a remote office in Houston, Texas. We worked at the same company for a year, before finally meeting in person. Fast forward another year, and she left Google to work for Octagon, where she recruited me to come work for her full-time about six months later. We have had the opportunity to plan activations for AllState's NCAA Sponsorship, ESPN and the Special Olympics, Mastercard & Gwen Stefani, and create social media campaigns for a group of 20+ exhilarating Action Sport Athletes for Sony. While we no longer work at the same company and our careers have taken us to opposite coasts, we still keep in touch and reunite when work or life brings us together -- i.e., Super Bowl 50 in San Francisco.
For readers who don't know you, tell us a little about yourself…
To start, I'm an East Coast girl living in a West Coast dream. I am currently the Vice President of an incredible sports start-up in San Francisco and living my best life. I recently moved out to SF from Connecticut where I also worked in sports at Octagon, before that I was with Google in Boston and even before that I was with the Olympics (USA Volleyball) out of Colorado. I'm originally from Bangor, Maine (Julie the Cat Gaffney) and went to Penn State. I have a kick ass sister who is still in Boston, a boy friend who is an NFL agent, lovely parents and the greatest french bulldog of all time, Phoenix.
What inspired you to work in sports?
When I was about 10 years old my father brought me to a Patriots game for my birthday. There was one woman on the sidelines and I was curious as to what she was doing down there. I asked my dad what she did he ran down to ask her for me. She worked PR for the Patriots and I thought..hey if I can't take an actual down on the field, I can at least be around it. I've been training myself to work in sports ever since. One other note about sports is that I have seen a game do incredible things for people in times of need. Whether its a natural disaster or just a bad day, sports has connected people to happiness and hop for a long time. I will never ever get over that feeling.
After graduation you moved to Denver, however since then you have moved to Boston, Connecticut, and now you reside in San Francisco. What are your thoughts on location having to do with opportunity?
Since the beginning I told myself I would move anywhere for a job opportunity. I highly recommend just allowing jobs in the beginning to take you across the country and even for some, across the world. It's very important that when you can be mobile that you are, because later in life that isn't as easy.
What is the craziest thing you have ever done to get a lunch/calendar with someone?
True story... I once emailed a guy from the NFL for information about a volunteer opportunity at an upcoming Super Bowl. I knew it was difficult to get and of course it was volunteer so there was no money but I felt I had to do anything I could to get a meeting with this guy face to face. I asked if he would grab coffee with me for 15 minutes. He countered with a meeting in the NFL offices and I accepted saying I wasn't far from their location. A few days later I took a 9 hour train ride to NYC. I also got accepted into the volunteer opportunity.
How important is networking and relationships when it comes to your career?
At the end of the day it is the only thing that matters. I always say that your vibe attracts your tribe. So if you have a positive giving vibe, and open yourself up to meet a bunch of people, you will always be surrounded by top-notch people. I've never ever gotten a job without someone personally referring me. I give my network 100% credit for where I am and where I have been lucky enough to be.
What's one piece of advice you have for women out there that are looking to start a career in sports?
To educate themselves on all opportunities within sports. There are so many amazing jobs, internships, volunteer opportunities, etc. in sports that will help pave your career path. I thought a side line reporter was the only job available for a female in sports and I was VERY bad at it so I didn't know if I'd make it in sports. Then a few bad ass mentors of mine introduced me to so many other departments, properties, job titles so that I could expand my search and really see where I fit within the arena.
What challenges do you face as a woman in your field?
Luckily there have not been too many that have held me back but I think being a woman in sports allows for less access to certain jobs and also makes you have to be on your game at all times. As a woman, I have never played a sport that I have worked for, so my knowledge around a table of men who have all played the sport is obviously less than them. I had to make sure that in every day conversation my sports trivia knowledge was high and my current events knowledge was also exceptional.
How do you deal with being in a male dominated industry?
I have had an incredible career path that has been surrounded by very powerful women and men. I've worked for women that celebrate women and men that acknowledge and embrace smart and fearless women. I think as women in a male-dominated industry, one of the greatest things you can do is that when you get to the top you send that elevator back down to get the next woman to rise.
Your boyfriend also works in sports, in fact you both met while working for the same company. How do you balance love and career?
We balance it quite well actually because we love what we do and we are both finding ourselves in our career at the same time. He is an NFL agent so that allows me to learn about the athlete side of the business as I'm not as in touch with that and he can learn from me how the marketing side of the business works. We both respect each other's side of the business and use each other in a lot of the deals that we do. Luckily neither of us have ever needed a break from sports... yet.
What's your "B" Word? And how do you redefine it?
BOLD - being a boss is being bold. Be bold about your decisions and if those bold decisions are made through passion then you will find yourself becoming a boss very quickly. For any woman who is aspiring to build her brand and/or her career, my piece of advice for you is to find a good group of women that support you and that love to see you succeed. If you don't have any of those people... call one of us. We happily will root you on!

KĀDU (pronounced Kaa-du) is the first premium wine offering from the Karnataka vineyards of Sula Vineyards, India's leading wine producer.
Kādu, meaning "wild" in Kannada, is India's first "Wine for a Cause". The beautiful label, handiwork of renowned label designer Simon Frouws, depicts a tiger in all its glory in the wild jungle.
Karnataka is home to the most wild tigers on the planet in its many reserves. But the majestic beast - India's national animal - is endangered, with its habitat under threat.
Sula has decided to take up the cause of the magnificent tiger with Kādu, India's first "wine for a cause". With each bottle of Kādu sold, Sula will contribute to tiger conservation within Karnataka. To ensure the optimum end-use of the funds contributed, Sula is collaborating with Mud on Boots, the pioneering initiative by the Sanctuary foundation.
Bittu Sahgal, legendary conservationist, founder of Sanctuary and Sula founder, CEO Rajeev Samant launched Kādu in Bengaluru on 6th November 2017.
Kādu is Sula's homage to Karnataka as one of India's most important wine regions.Kādu is the fruit of Sula's efforts to bring the best from Karnataka's terroir to your glass.
Four delicious Kādu wines will be available initially:
Ø Kādu Chenin Blanc – is delicious, slightly sweet, floral and fruity
Ø Kādu Sauvignon Blanc – has delicate aromas and flavours of passion fruit, cut grass and green peppers
Ø Kādu Shiraz Rose – is light, fruity and full of luscious berry flavours
Ø Kādu Cabernet Shiraz – is lush, medium bodied and peppery with subtle oak
Winemaker Gorakh Gaikwad has crafted Kādu from the choicest premium Karnataka wine grapes to produce this wonderful "Wine for a cause"!

Welcome back, and thanks again for joining me as I take a look at The Mist Episode 5: The Waiting Room!
For a little refresher on my thoughts on last week's episode, you can find that here; and Spike was kind enough to offer up this recap for us:
I'm a big fan of both Stephen King's work and the 2007 Thomas Jane movie, but since this is a "based on…", I'll be reviewing the television series based on its own merits instead of through comparisons. A lot of details are going to get spoiled, so please keep that in mind as you read this. I'll try to put up some kind of "subtle reminder" when the spoilage is about to start.
As always, my rating system is based on a highly scientific 1-9 (with half-increments) John Cusack scale, with a 10 "Golden Cusack" score reserved only for incredibly rare and special circumstances. Why John Cusack? Because he's my pop-culture spirit animal. And he made High Fidelity. And Grosse Pointe Blank. And Better Off Dead. And One Crazy Summer. There's more if you're interested, but maybe we should move on.
And just because you're the best around and nothing's ever gonna keep you down, this friendly neighborhood reminder:
So here's what we knew about "The Waiting Room" before diving in:
"Kevin and the others reach a hospital where Kevin has an unexpected and painful encounter with his brother Mike."
That's two in a row for The Mist, as the show found a way to not only continue the quality from last week but also build upon it for this week. The Waiting Room is by far the best episode of the season so far. If you've read my previous reviews, then you know that I've had two major issues with this show: Kevin (Morgan Spector) was a little too "perfect" of a father/husband and that made it hard for me to buy into him as "The Hero;" and Eve (Alyssa Sutherland) was too bland of a character for me to care about. This episode took care of the former for me, and made me feel a while lot better about the latter.
I appreciated the fact that the show took a different tactic with this episode, where they kept the majority of the focus on Kevin and "flashback Eve" and limited the side storylines dramatically. I would appreciate it as a viewer who's actually now enjoying the series if they'd continue with this format and highlight specific key characters in each of the remaining episodes. In the span of less that 45 minutes, I learned more about Kevin, Eve, Alex (Gus Birney) and the entire town Bridgton than I did in the first four episodes combined.
We've now reached the point in the series where I feel/hope the creators are now comfortable starting to peel away the surface layers of their characters and show their faults and failings. I believe it started last week with Father Romanov (Dan Butler); and extended to also include Adrian (Russell Posner) and Bryan (Okezie Morro) this week.
Not to say that there still weren't some brain-scratches in between the good stuff: some questionable decision-making, convenient coincidences and setup for possibly uncomfortable scenarios. As you're about to see in my "PRO/CON" rundown, those issues are pretty minor as you'll see when The Waiting Room gets the highest Cusack rating of the season.
PRO: Kevin, Adrian and Mia (Danica Curcic) were able to get Bryan to the hospital while keeping the death-by-mist count unchanged. I appreciated that this Point A/Point B scenario wasn't dragged out and that Bryan was on a gurney within the first five minutes. I also appreciated how they were all yelling conflicting instructions to Kevin as he was driving there: "careful" + "faster" + the mist + guy bleeding out = an impossible combination.
PRO: "Strange. I've never been happier. But I've also never been…less myself. It's the weirdest thing." The flashback scenes between Kevin and Eve are disturbingly bright and sunny in their look, which in an interesting way makes those scenes more foreboding. The writers make it a point of showing us one more example of "perfect Kevin," almost daring the viewer to find him "corny" and "boring" before they start showing us the layers. Eve is torn between the woman she used to be and the woman she is now, trying to reconcile the two into a life that works for her. Kevin is a "savior" in constant need for someone to save, but can he handle being with someone who needs him but doesn't need him to save them?
CON: I completely understand and respect Kevin feeling the need to rest and have a mini-breakdown…but he just so happens to pick the very same room that his brother Mike (Peter Murnik) is in? That's about 9/10 on the "force-a-storyline-along" scale. Until a doctor confirmed that he actually was there later in the episode, I was certain that all of Kevin's conversations with Mike were completely in his head.
PRO: "They said they knew me. They said it was for Ricky Gastavo." Mike adds credence to the theory that the mist is tied directly into the thoughts/fears/nightmares of the individual; but it's still not clear how exactly it attacks.
PRO: "You can't save everyone. God knows you tried." Mike and Kevin are one of the more realistic pairs of brothers on television, even if it does travel down the familiar "tougher-older-brother-sees-younger-brother-as-too-soft" road. We know that there is some "bad blood" in the past between Kevin and Mike over Eve, the kind that has Mike believing that it would be easy for Kevin to put him out of his misery: "You don't like me anyway! It won't be hard! Please! Please!" But Kevin won't let things stand like that between them, reminding Mike of how he used to protect Kevin when they were boys. Their exchanges are genuine — we have an understanding about Mike that allows us to see a line like, "Oh my god, you sloppy piece of pussy!" as the best way he can express any kind of loving emotion towards his brother…and Kevin understand that and accepts it for what it truly is.
PRO: The sex scene between Kevin and Eve was possibly the best way to demonstrate the issues at play for them both as individuals and as a couple. Eve might have been there, but she wasn't there there…and it's probably best that Kevin not ask her what she was thinking about during it. Other observation? That might be the most non-nudity nudity I've ever seen on a basic cable channel show…some inventive camera work and angles there.
PRO: I liked that Mia placed money on the gift shop counter for the stuffed bear she was getting for Bryan, done out of respect for the gift shop worker who took her own life in the shop's backroom. A nice way of showing us a shift in her character without feeling the need to beat us over the head with it.
PRO: Wait…we have two "Bryan Hunts"?!? And our "Bryan Hunt" might actually be a guy named "Jonah Dixon"? Now this just made the mystery a little more interesting…especially when it appears that "Bryan Hunt" didn't know he wasn't "Bryan Hunt", either.
PRO/CON???: Not sure how I feel about the violent start to what I'm assuming might be a growing relationship of some type between Adrian and Tyler (Christopher Gray). I'm reserving full judgment until I see where the writer's are going with Adrian, but I'd be lying if I said I felt comfortable watching him go immediately back to Tyler after that brutal beating he took at Tyler's hands (and feet). There was a brutally realistic rawness to those scenes that both Gray and Posner handled as professionals in every sense of the word…I just hope the writers tread these waters carefully.
CON: "Don't get attached to anyone. They'll just use you for their own good." Mia discovers the whole Bryan Hunt/Jonah Dixon situation and feels like she's being played. Her response? Steal the car keys from Adrian and go driving off into the mist. Yeah…doesn't make any sense and seemed in stark contrast of where her character was at that point. Maybe you could say it was out of anger and hurt…but I just didn't buy it.
PRO: Eve: "It's nothing. Don't worry about it." Kevin: "Funny how that always makes people worry."
PRO: "And then you came along and rescued her. How could I not hate you for that?" Mike and Kevin finally come to terms over Eve: Eve was "loved" by many of the men in the town, men who grew bitter and made her life hell when they couldn't have her. When Kevin married Eve, he inherited the hate that bled out from their jealousy.
CON: I don't know medicine any more than what I read on WebMD, but it does seem like that surgery went a little too quickly considering how much the doctor hyped up Mike's condition.
PRO: Whoah! So Alex isn't Kevin's kid; and he doesn't want to know who the father is and doesn't want Alex to be told. Hmmm…wonder if that's going to come into play at some point…about 108% sure it will.
PRO: Kevin needs one more lesson in understanding that he can't save everyone: even though he performed the surgery successfully, the mist is still too much for Kevin and Mike pays the price in the form of leeches (wondering if they appeared based on what Mike was thinking or on how Kevin viewed him). But Mike can take solace in one thing: by pulling the trigger and putting Mike out of his growing mystery, Kevin proved that he would be willing to do what was necessary for him and his loved ones to survive.
Conclusion: A quality episode that has me excited for the second half of the season and closer to my renewal vote.
The Mist Episode 5 ("The Waiting Room") gets 7-1/2 Cusacks!

Choosing the Perfect
Entertainment for Your Event:
Conferences can go on for hours. Endless meetings, presentations, and discussions can cause attendees to grow weary and disinterested. To liven them up and give each other something to talk about (which is essential for networking), you will want engaging activities to rouse people's spirits during its breaks and intermissions or the after party. Here are 5 entertainment options that you might want to try:
Interactive Robot
Make the attendees feel like they're in the future with a walking and talking robot they can interact with! With a machine like Titan the Robot roaming around the venue during breaks, you'll surely pique the curiosity of guests. They're perfect for tech and science-related conferences.
Digital Caricaturist
Amuse guests with an artist who can draw a digital portrait of them on the fly. With this entertainment option, attendees can get a souvenir to remind them of the conference. They can have their drawings printed or sent to them digitally.
Dance Troupe
Wow crowds and impress audiences with a dazzling dance troupe performance! With a number from a group like El Gamma Penumbra, you'll not only entertain but inspire attendees as well. Shows like this are a good choice for larger events.
Mind Reader
Comedy Act
A comedy act can lift spirits and establish a friendly environment in a conference, but make sure that the jokes are appropriate. Better if you can have the comedian relate his humor to the theme or subjects of the event to keep participants on track.
With the right entertainment you can energize attendees, make networking easier, and create a more memorable experience!

I am HUGE
YEAH you heard right
Get your mind out the gutter
I have everything
Fighting fires is what I do
But there is one I desire
She should be off limits
But a fire
And whatever barriers
Might stand in our way
Will burn down
I want you Michaela
God I want you
You will be mine.
I was not looking for romance
But there he was
My Dad's firefighter best friend
Will he put out the fire on time?
Or will we have an everlasting fire between us?
Or am I playing with fire?

Anyone that lives in a home knows that it's upsetting to deal with pests. Pests like rats and insects can cause great distress, as well as being a carrier of diseases. Be sure you're doing whatever you can to rid yourself of pests by giving the below article a read.
Don't wait for a pest control problem to become an infestation; call a professional or take action on your own immediately. You might think that just because you've only seen one or two or that you don't see them often there isn't a big problem. Do something fast or you can expect big problems later.
Ask any professional you hire for references. Just because they have an ad in your yellow pages does not mean that they do good business. They only way to be sure that you are going to get your money's worth is to verify that their other customers are satisfied with their work.
Make sure that every single night, you do the dishes in a dishwater or at least wash the food off of the dishes in the sink. The last thing that you will want to do is leave food in the sink, which can be a breeding ground for insects to come in your home.
Do not tackle pest control alone if you live in a multiunit structure. Your individual efforts might be successful temporarily, but ineffective in the long run. Insects could just travel to another condo, apartment or townhome and then return. Consult with the property managers or other owners for a building-wide treatment solution.
If you live on a farm and have a problem with mice, or even rats, consider getting a couple outdoor cats to provide natural pest control. Make sure the cats have not been declawed, and have access to every part of the outdoor buildings. Make sure to provide food and water to the cats because they will still catch mice even if they are not hungry.
Vacuuming your home on a weekly basis is the best way to get rid of pest. Use your vacuum on your mattress too if you have bed bugs. Replace the vacuum bag regularly and invest in a quality carpet cleaning mousse if you want to disinfect your entire home efficiently.
If you spot bugs or pest in an apartment complex, you need to complain to your landlord immediately. You will not successfully eradicate the pest if you take action by yourself. The only way to get rid of pest is to treat the entire apartment complex at once, which means residents might have to stay somewhere else for a few days.
If you believe you have bed bugs, you can help control the population by washing your clothes. However, you have to be careful when doing so. Put all of your clothing into a plastic bag. Seal it up to take it to the laundry room. Wash it all in the hottest water possible and then dry it on high heat. Remember that it is very hard to eradicate bed bugs on your own, so call around and see if a company will do a free inspection for you.
Use the tips you've just learned for controlling pests. They can be a real issue in your life. Use this information to rid yourself once and for all.

It's all about ... turtles?
Forty youths from the YMCA Kids Clubs and the John F. Kennedy Center visited the Tom Ridge Environmental Center on Thursday, February 27.
The trip was sponsored by Sister Pat Lupo, OSB.
Tour guides were Sister Annette Marshall, OSB, from the Neighborhood Art House, and two environmental specialists from Presque Isle State Park.
Everyone toured the TREC Center and saw examples of wild life and plant life that populate Presque State Park, including the turtles. The group toured the indoor agua-pond study area where they saw several different types of fish and turtles, including a Lake Sturgeon.
The tour ended with a private screening of the movie "The Flying Monsters" -- a film depicting flying dinosaurs called Pterosaurs.

Dogs Are Working to Save Cultural Heritage in Unprecedented Training Program
A new group of working dogs are sniffing out smuggled artifacts and saving cultural heritage. The Red Arch Cultural Heritage Law & Policy Research, the University of Pennsylvania's Penn Vet Working Dog Center and the Penn Museum are working together on a program called the K-9 Artifact Finders research program.
In the first phase of the project, researchers are conducting initial scent imprinting of three types of artifacts -- lawfully excavated, properly documented and illegally imported. Once that is completed, the dogs will be taught odor discrimination. A Penn Vet Working Dog Center press release says during Phase I dogs will focus on objects from the Fertile Crescent region of modern-day Iraq and Syria.
If Phase I is successful and additional funding is obtained, researchers hope to move onto Phase II, on-the-ground testing, and then Phase III, creating a demonstration program for customs officials in the U.S. and abroad so they can use dogs to protect cultural artifacts.

Can I upgrade and downgrade my Cloud Web Hosting package?
Updated Oct 31st, 2017 at 12:08 GMT
Yes, you can upgrade or downgrade your package at any point. If you would like to upgrade or downgrade your hosting package please contact our support team.
Before downgrading please be aware and prepare for the different resource allocations of each package. For example, if you downgrade from a Profesional package to a Standard package, your mailbox allocation will decrease from 100 to 25 mailboxes. You would need to cater for this change by deleting mailboxes.
There is no penalty for upgrading later, we will just charge you the difference in price over the time remaining.

MessyShapes sends a stream of random cute shapes falling from the
sky……all with their own personality! Your mission (should you choose
to accept it) is to destroy them by clicking on at least 3 touching
shapes of the same color.
Careful though……if you click on a shape that isn't touching at least 2
others of the same color, that shape will 'freeze' into an ice block
that can only be destroyed by the bombs.
However you go about destroying these little critters, don't let them
fill your screen!! If too many pile up, you get a 10 second count down
to clear those dastardly shapes sharpish!! Don't want to lose to a
bunch of cute shapes now do you?? Good Luck!

We're international team of crypto traders who initially build this tool for internal usage and after a while decided to put it in public for a symbolic price to cover our AWS bills and other experiments in this area.
Currently we are analyzing more than 600 pairs from Bittrex and Binance exchanges in real-time. Each pair has its own set of technical indicators, from simple gain analyzers to complicated rally detectors, individually tuned by an industry expert.
We had this feature initially before we went to public, but had to disable it due enormous amounts of computational power it requires. We might enable it eventually, when we get such kind of resources or came up with a sort of throttling.
No. But feel free to explore our Help page to setup up push notifications on your mobile device or smart speaker using IFTTT.
No. However, we provide an ability to setup a webhook which will be triggered on each alert.

build me a pop up with instagram link and discount code for whoocommerce
Бюджет $10-30 USD
I want a pop up feature coded for whoocommerce and mailchimp.
i want it to be exactly like the attached picture. Meaning that the pop-up has two step to get the discount code. The first step "follow us on instagram" is just a click-to-open a new window feature (that leds to the IG page), then in the step 2 the customer enters the e mail adress and receives the discount code.
i.e the system does NOT need to undertand/feel if the customer follows the UG page or not. But just open the IG page in a new tab, and then have that field in the pop up as "checked".
Visit [login to view URL] to see the pop up.
design, font and colors etc kan be changed later.

Let's go sweeeeettt..home, recipe, sirap 0
Unlike me, Rizal does not like to drink the good ol plain water... his drinks has to be flavored and chilled..! For that reason, we always to stock up on cordials at home. I have noticed lately that those cordials we purchased especially the F&N brand, is not like what it used to be. It is no longer concentrated enough but very very diluted - AND it is not that cheap!
Since we've had enough of those not-so-good commercial cordials, we thought we'd make our own. With coaching from mama, I managed to make my very own syrup cordial, which surprisingly, was quite easy to do.
All you need is basically:
1. Sugar = 1kg
2. Water = 6cups (1.5ltr)
3. Coloring = 2 table spoon (depends on ur liking more means darker colour)
4. Rose flavoring = 2 teaspoon
5. Pandan leave = 1 piece and fold
1. Put in pandan, water & sugar. Bring to boil in medium heat. Stir to avoid sugar burning
2. Once the sugar dissolved, and the mix thickens, add coloring and flavor
3. Bring it to boil for a minute or so
Thats it. Easy peasy!

Fish Currycurry, fish, home, recipe 0
Okay, this is not really a completed recipe since I am yet to find the perfect combination / measurements for it. Right now, I still need Rizal to help me with the tasting to tell me what to adjust. So.. Kalau x sedap.. consider yourself warned okie.
As usual lets start with ingredients. Pretty basic stuff:
1. Oil
2. Salt
3. Red Onions (pound coarse)
4. Garlic (pound coarse)
5. Curry leaves
6. Tomatoes (cut into four)
7. Asam Jawa (mix with water)
8. Curry powder (I use Baba's or Aligappa. Mix with water)
9. Fish (suitable fish: tenggiri, small kembong, bawal hitam (cut))
And here are the Optional things you can add on:
1. Lady's fingers
2. Coconut milk
3. Green Chillies
As you know there are different variation and type of curry, and the recipe I am sharing here was given to me by Rizal's mum.
This time I used ikan temenung. One of Rizal's favorite. According to him the fish meat is sweet thats why he likes it. Since I dont eat fish curry I just take his word for it
We have a Karipalley plant, so I just took the curry leaves from our plant ;). A hint on choosing the leaves, pick the old ones, it gives better flavor
Okie dokie, lets get rolling.
1. Heat the oil. Sautee onions, garlic and curry leaves
2. Once browned, then add curry powder mix
3. Let it dried up, until the oil surfaced. Org panggil naik minyak.
4. Add Lady's Fingers if you like. Also if want to put in santan, this is when you add it. I didnt put any santan. Just lady's fingers
5. Add the asam jawa mix, then tomatoes. Bring to boil
6. Finally, add the fish. Allow the fish to gently simmer, not actually boil, or the outside will break into pieces before the inside is done.
7. Once mixed well, that's it. Turn off the heat and serve!

Walking down memory laneKuala Pilah, travel 0
Last weekend, we went back to Seremban to have Ramadhan and buka puasa with my parents. Since its the long weekend, we stayed longer and had the chance to ronda2 a bit.
Anticipating the crawl on the highway, we decided to take the alternate route, which is through KLP (I refuse to call it MEX cos it doesnt make sense) , Sepang, Nilai and through to Seremban 2. Using this road, you would have to pass through kampung-kampung halfway through the journey - which suits me perfectly cos I wanted to snap photos, especially near to airport area.
We started out on KL Seremban Highway to avoid the Salak Toll on KLP. Joined the KLP at Sungai Besi and took the highway till the end and headed towards Putrajaya/Dengkil. There is one beautiful area along that road connecting Putrajaya and Nilai, just off the exit to Dengkil town. I think its an old mining site, and during sunset and sunrise the reflections on the lombong water was just mesmerising. Since when we passed it through around noon, there was no reflections of the sun on the lake, so I didnt snap any photos. But it remains as one of the spots that I would like to snap one day.
It was raining the night before, so when we set out I was hoping for nice beautiful skies, but was dampened when I saw KLCC was still hazy and skies was not so blue :(
Luckily for me, farther along the way as we reached Dengkil area, the haze decided to stay in KL and as a result, we had nice beautiful skies there. It was in my favorite shade of blue, with cluttered of charming white clouds.
(this photo doesnt do it justice, I didnt have polarised filter so cant really see the beautiful blue)
|From BalikSban0908
Along the way Rizal kept raving about the views along the KLIA express (train route). So when we were in the vicinity of airport we decided to detour and try find the small road seen along KLIA express. We took this small kampung road, didnt find much there. but skies was so beautiful i told rizal to stop so that I could take photos.

From this kampung you could see planes taking off every few minutes. What a beautiful sight... Green lush, planes taking off..
|From BalikSban0908
There was once when I took this same route to come back to KL from seremban I saw photographers taking photos of Planes taking off along the big roads. Cant remember exactly the location, cant find it. It was nearly 4 then so we decided to just continue our journey.. Mental note: another spot to go ..
We passed through LBJ area... Photo of lonely road.
|From BalikSban0908
Btw, I should remind myself nextime to go all the way to Mambau and take highway from Rasah. The Seremban toll is just soo congested, They really need to upgrade.
On sunday we decided to go back to Kuala Pilah. The night before grandma had actually asked if I could take her to kampung, cos she wanted to see the progress of the renovation works at our kampung house and collect the bills. She was napping when we were leaving and was kinda tired, so she didnt tag along in the end.
Off we went then towards Bukit putus... I see the new road is already making way. Still dont know when it will be completed though.
|From BalikSban0908
We drove on all the way to Kuala Pilah town from Seremban. We then proceeded towards Bemban cos Rizal wants to see the area. Bemban is just off Senaling, where ayah's kampung is. Grabbed some biskut Azan for ayah from the kedai-cino. From there we took the Senaling -Seri menanti route.
This road is popular for its landmines aka tahi lembu. Needless to say we saw lots of cows and goats dominating the road along the way. Enjoy...

At Seri Menanti where mama is from, I asked Rizal to detour to my kampung.

|From BalikSban0908
Along the way back to Seremban, we stopped by the roadside stalls to buy Daging & sembilang salai, fruits and other delicacies. In terms of prices it's not really that cheap, only that they sell things that we dont usually see or get in KL. Just for reference:
Daging salai - RM15 half kilo
Ikan sembilang Salai - RM10 sekilo (about 3 pieces)
Dragonfruit - RM6 per kilo for small ones, RM8 for big ones
Tampoi fruit - RM5 per kilo

Changes at Charlies
Andrew and Tania Cole have literally gone from the boardroom to the barn, and from suits to strawberries. The couple both worked at menswear manufacturers, Working Style, but decided to purchase Charlie's Gelato Garden earlier this year. Andrew kicks off his gumboots and takes a break from toiling on the 10-acres of fruit, berries and grapes to explain why.
"I hit fifty and I thought, if I don't do something different now, then I never will."
It's a bold move, but Tania and Andrew grew up on farms and also wanted to give their three children a taste of country life. So, four months on, how's it all going?
"I'm a keen gardener, but this is another level completely. Charlie's is renowned for great strawberries and I feel the weight of community expectation on my shoulders. If I mess up the strawberries they will all think I'm a complete Muppet!"
Luckily founders, Charlie Wrigglesworth and Heather King are still on-hand to help out. The couple started growing fruit 24-years-ago, but a trip to Italy inspired them to transform it into a multitude of delicious gelato and sorbetto flavours. Since 2007 summers in Matakana haven't been complete without a visit to Charlie's.
"Charlie and Heather are really genuine, lovely people, we hit it off straight away and they have been amazing in their support for us. Charlie is very practical and can fix almost anything, but I'm still learning where the broken solenoid is, let alone how to fix it!"
Fans of Charlie's can keep calm and gelato on; the Cole's have no plans for sweeping changes. The interior has had a bit of a makeover, with newly polished floors and a lick of paint. The process of nipping in to grab some of the world's finest strawberries and table grapes, will be streamlined with a new purpose-built produce counter. Andrew and Tania will also expand the range with preserves, honey and seasonal produce. They hope the one thousand blueberry bushes will also provide a bumper crop.
The hardworking lads and lasses from Mahurangi College will be back during the summer to help serve wood-fired pizza and gelato. In fact all of the staff have stayed on under the change of ownership. Even the lovely ladies at the Wool Shop will keep passing on the art of knitting and selling their woolly wares. Phew…we can all relax safe in the knowledge that our summers and Charlie's will be sweet as.

I spent a long time looking for a job I could combine perfectly with my sport of bobsleigh. With the assistance of the Swiss Olympic Athlete Career Programme, I began an internship at a well-known Swiss confectionery in the spring of 2013.
Last year, from April to October, I again worked with the chocolate maker's quality assurance and development teams. With flexible working hours, the job actually allowed me to prepare in the best possible way for the upcoming season.
When autumn came and the season's start was near, I exchanged my white lab coveralls for a streamlined racing suit. In the early part of the season, I herniated my disc. Forced rest made me take several weeks off.
However, I recovered in good time. I had a career day during the two-man bobsleigh event at the European Championships in St Moritz, which also counts as a World Cup event. My teammate Beat Hefti and I started the race with a great deal of uncertainty, but we knew we could be fast on this course. Still, to finish in the number one spot on the board surprised even us! Being European champions and World Cup winners was an amazing feeling.
One week later, we entered the two-man bobsleigh competition at the World Championships in Igls, Austria. After two runs we were in fourth place, right in the middle of the contest for a medal!
On the third run, we had an almost perfect performance, moving us up to third place. We defended this position on the final run and delightedly received our bronze medals at the ceremony in Innsbruck's old town. I had the most ecstatic feeling come over me then. To win an Olympic or World Championship medal: that's the highest goal you can achieve in sport.
After the season is finished in the spring, I look forward to taking off my racing suit and changing back into my white lab coveralls. I don't yet know which company I will be working for, but I hope that I will be able to achieve the same kind of comeback in my working career as I did in my sporting career.
