Another cracking spring morning, and the Ewing's birthday to boot. So what nicer way to celebrate than heading out in to the rolling Oxfordshire countryside for a pint and a pub lunch.
Recommended to us by the Ewing's boss The Charles Napier is only about 20 minutes from our door, but had somehow fallen off my radar. After tapping the address into the sat nav, and merrily setting off, I soon realised why. This isn't the sort of place you are likely to randomly stumble upon. After turning up yet another precipitous and winding track the Ewing nervously remarked that, apart from the lack of snow on the Chiltern Hills in the distance, we could be navigating an alpine pass. We even encountered a few stray sheep to really set the scene.
After the traumas of getting there in one piece we both needed a stiff drink. Unfortunately we still had to get back again so instead settled for a pint of, very nicely kept, Wadworth 6x. The dark and cosy front bar, with its big leather sofas and open fireplace, looked the perfect place to hole up on a cold winter's evening. As the glorious weather was still holding we decided to sit outside in the vine covered patio area, overlooking the sculpture garden and grounds beyond.
On the way through the dining area I spotted a cloth covered platter, with an great, oozing wedge of cheese peeking out, another promising sign that we were in for a treat. Looking at the menu further confirmed it; not only did it I want to eat everything, but they were also offering great value two course set menu for just £15.50.
Pick of the bread selection was the warm raisin and walnut roll. Soft and floury, it went down well with a smear of salted butter and another pint of bitter for me. (The birthday girl, and designated driver for the day, was promised plenty of prosecco on our return)
Double baked smoked haddock and cheddar souffle came looking simple and unprepossessing. A cracked yellow dome in a puddle of pale sauce, studded with flakes of fish, parsley and chives. I've had a few twice cooked souffles before, but none nearly as ethereal as this. It melted in the mouth, like eating a smokey, cheesy cloud of loveliness.
The Ewing's new season asparagus came with a perfectly poached, crispy hen's egg, with a yolk of the most amazing yellow hue. The accompanying hollandaise was perfectly light and lemony, and in less polite company, I may well have resorted to drinking it straight from the jug.
We both went with the Bouillabaisse for a main. This was a cracking piece of cooking that managed to look as pretty as a picture, but still packed a Provencal flavour punch. Nicely cooked fillets of red mullet and bream sat a top a bed of new potatoes and samphire, cockles and clams nestling in between. The best bit was throwing rouille covered croutons into a pool of delicious orange and anise scented broth at the bottom of the dish.
Despite the lightness of touch shown in the previous two courses I was almost defeated by the time they bought us the pudding menu. Struggling gamely on I ordered scoops of brown bread and peanut butter and banana, rum and raisin ice creams. A welcoming cold and tasty ending; I particularly enjoyed the contrast from the nuggets of boozy fruit and crunch of the peanuts, although the unannounced (blackcurrant?) element was slightly odd.
The Ewing indulged her first love by choosing the chocolate tart, served with bitter orange ice cream. 'Delicious!' And 'mmm...' were about the only comments I could elicit from her as she chased the remaining pastry crumbs and blobs of almond puree around the plate.
After lunch we decided to take advantage of the beautiful weather by taking a romantic stroll around the gardens. Unfortunately the table next to us had the same idea at the same time, so we spent a few comical laps trying to avoid each other by climbing over styles and cutting through the long grass. The grounds are quite lovely, complete with a herb garden we saw being plundered by the chef and several benches that looked perfect for a postprandial slump.
As you may already have gathered from the unqualified praise above I found our meal at the Charles Napier to be some of the best judged and skillful cooking I have eaten for a long while. With food that is fantastic, faultless and a veritable bargain to boot it's well worth braving the wilds of Oxon for.

MHTC board to discuss management contract tonight
The Memorial Hospital of Texas County Board of Control is set to meet tonight in a special meeting that will progress in executive session to discuss and take possible action to approve a management agreement with Chicago-based People's Choice Hospitals.
This meeting comes after the Monday morning decision by county commissioners to move forward with a public trust authority designation for the hospital. It was indicated during that meeting that it was likely the current board members would become the first trustees as part of the new legal entity.
Other rural hospitals in Oklahoma that have closed recently include facilities Sayre Memorial Hospital in Sayre and Epic Medical Center in Eufaula.
People's Choice Hospitals entered in an agreement with Sayre to reopen the facility at the end of April.
A decision will be made during the meeting.

text: Based partly on our discussions at the Summit about "live constants", and also based on the likely requirements of Project Lambda, the JSR 292 EG is likely to allow any single invokedynamic instruction to pass one or more extra constant values into the bootstrap method invocation. Here is the current thinking. Language implementors, please tell us if we are missing anything. We call these "static arguments", in contrast to the normal "dynamic arguments" that are received on every method call. For invokedynamic, the dynamic arguments are received as if by 'invokeExact' on the method handle bound to the invokedynamic instruction instance, by the BSM. The BSM decides, once at link time, which method handle to choose based on the static arguments. There are three standard static arguments always passed to the BSM: 1. an indication of the caller class (note: this is likely to change to a MethodHandles.Lookup capability) 2. a String naming the method apparently being called 3. a MethodType indicating the dynamic arguments and return value types The String and MethodType are extracted from the NameAndType constant at the invokedynamic site. The invokedynamic instruction points to a constant pool entry that looks like this: struct InvokeDynamic_info { u1 tag; // always CONSTANT_InvokeDynamic = 18 u2 bsm_index; // ref to CONSTANT_MethodHandle u2 descr_index; // ref to CONSTANT_NameAndType u2 argc; // count of optional static arguments u2 argv[argc]; // refs to anything 'ldc' can refer to (int, long, float, double, class, method handle, method type) } If we take this path, we will switch to the tag '18', to reduce confusion when old and new class files are mixed. The existing tag '17' for the no-extra-args format will drop out of use and be illegal in JDK7 FCS. Depending on the value of argc, the BSM will be invoked in one of three ways: if (argc = 0) binding = bsm.invokeGeneric(lookup, name, type); if (argc = 1) binding = bsm.invokeGeneric(lookup, name, type, (Object) argv[0]); if (argc > 1) binding = bsm.invokeGeneric(lookup, name, type, (Object[]) argv); Note that the BSM, since it is derived from a CONSTANT_MethodHandle, can only be a "direct method handle", a pointer to a Java method. It cannot be adapted (e.g., as a spreader or collector). But in user-visible code, it would be reasonable to express a typical BSM as an overloaded method, whose third overloading takes a varargs array: MethodHandle myBSM(MethodHandles.Lookup look, String name, MethodType type); MethodHandle myBSM(MethodHandles.Lookup look, String name, MethodType type, Object arg); MethodHandle myBSM(MethodHandles.Lookup look, String name, MethodType type, Object... args); It is natural to ask why we are using varargs, when we could just specify that the extra static arguments could be passed positionally. The simple answer is positional arguments are of limited use, but a varargs array can be used to encode very rich and useful BSM arguments. Since very few Java methods take more than 10 parameters, allowing up to 255 extra arguments is not very interesting. (Actually the limit would be 251 non-long non-double arguments, since there are three to start with, plus the BSM itself.) Writing a BSM which takes (say) 100 arguments would be silly. (Note that BSMs cannot be collectArguments adapters; they have to be simple JVM methods or constructors.) And a related one that takes 99 arguments would have to be a completely distinct method. It is clear that any large number of arguments has to be passed in an array. So let's pass them all in a trailing varargs parameter. Will users want more than a couple of extra static arguments? I think so. It will provide a way to bind interesting specifications directly into the classfile, without cumbersome bytecode-based construction. Examples: - a serialized AST structure, built from a mix of strings and method handles, to be interpreted - complex application-defined constants, such as lists or sets - similarly, templates for partly-constant data structures (the invokedynamic builds a factory method for the template) - vtables (i.e., maps of names to method handles) All of these things can be created by executable bytecodes in <clinit>, but implementors will (in many cases) be able to create them more compactly from series of constants. For example, a list of integer values will occupy 2+1+4 bytes per element if encoded as a sequence of static arguments. (The '2' is the argv element; the 1+4 is the CONSTANT_Integer.) Using <clinit> style bytecodes, the same element will require (1+2+3+1)+1+4 bytes, where the parenthesized numbers stand for a sequence of "aload buf; bipush J; ldc N; aastore". (This sequence stores the element into an object array, which is going to be passed to something like Arrays.asList.) The ratio is 7 to 11. For integer values which repeat, the ratio is closer to 2 to 6. There is a limit to this technique, of course, since the constant pool has only 65535 constants. But this limit is shared with the <clinit> style technique. A key use case for one or two BSM arguments is closure construction for Project Lambda. Here, an extra static argument can specify a private synthetic method which gives the body (code, not data) of the closure. The data parts are normal dynamic arguments. The BSM produces a factory function which (efficiently) binds the data values to the statically specified closure body. A second BSM argument might be the SAM type intended for the closure. (That could also be inferred from the MethodType.) Another key use case is an invokedynamic instruction that implements an arbitrary live constant, by linking the call site (of zero arguments) to a method handle which always returns the desired constant. (MethodHandles.constant will do this.) The only missing bit is the serialized data behind the live constant. Again, allowing an essentially unbounded array gives implementors the right degree (I think) of flexibility. If, instead of constants, we want templated values (think Groovy strings like "hello, $name"), the statically determined structure of the value can be expressed in static arguments to an invokedynamic, with the inserted values ("$name") passed on the stack. The BSM produces a factory function which builds the desired result. The BSM might use a templating engine to partially evaluate the static structure, so that the dynamically changing parts can be combined in at full speed. (A useful thing missing here is substructure sharing: What if two invokedynamic instructions need almost the same static arguments? This can be dealt in user code, with via a static table created in <clinit> or a similar method. Shared values can be referred to by small integers assigned by the language backend. In essence, the components we are proposing help language implementors to build better versions of constant pools and vtables, with compactness and efficiency similar to the corresponding native structures.) In conclusion: It is true that most use cases for BSM arguments will only need one or two extra arguments. But if we allow an array of strings, integer, method handles, etc., with a reasonable length, suddenly our language implementor friends have a flexible and natural way to use for encoding the "serialized" version of their live constants. So, let's not just one or two static arguments, and not a useless 251, either, but rather a useful 65535. (I'd go for a larger number, 2**31-1, but it would not mesh with the other 16-bit numbers in the class file format. That's got to be fixed in a big format revision, another day.) -- John

Most people have heard of hip and knee replacements, but you may not be aware that an ankle may be replaced with a prosthetic device, too. Total ankle replacement is also known as ankle arthroplasty. Doctors began performing ankle arthroplasty many years ago, but prosthetic devices were not living up to expectations and most physicians stopped doing the procedure two decades ago.
Today, there is a new generation of replacement devices approved by the Food and Drug Administration devices that have a better anatomical design than previous implants and improved longevity. These advanced prosthetics also allow better movement. There is finally an excellent treatment option for patients who need surgery.
Patients considering ankle joint replacement have usually lived with chronic ankle arthritis that is extremely painful. Commonly, they have tried treatments such as physical therapy, rest, bracing, injections and/or medications. Sometimes, they have undergone other unsuccessful surgeries. (Click on "Are you a candidate?" for more information.)
To request an appointment or get more information, please visit BaptistHealth.net/Ortho.
About Our Ankle Specialists
Miami Orthopedics & Sports Medicine Institute is comprised of Board-certified, fellowship-trained orthopedic physicians who are recognized locally, nationally and internationally as leaders in orthopedics and the care of athletes and treatment of sports injuries. The Institute combines its resources of experienced physicians and leading-edge treatments and technology to provide advanced orthopedic, pediatric orthopedic and sports medicine care. The Institute's foot and ankle specialists are experts in the field and some of only a few orthopedic surgeons who are fellowship-trained in foot and ankle surgery in South Florida. He has lectured and trained other physicians in a variety of orthopedic techniques and procedures and has published numerous journal articles on advances in orthopedic surgical treatment.
Ankle Basics
The ankle joint is quite sophisticated. It absorbs more than four times your body weight. Think about how you move. You walk, jump, go up on tip-toe, move side-to-side. The joint allows the foot to extend and flex. Along with cartilage, ligaments and tendons, the ankle joint is the connection between the tibia (shinbone), the fibula (the smaller bone in the lower leg) and the talus (the bone that sits on the top of the heel and fits into the socket formed by the tibia and the fibula). Ankle cartilage is a quarter-inch shock-absorber between the bones that allows the joint to move smoothly. Aging and injuries can damage and wear away the cartilage, resulting in severe pain and lifestyle limitations. Rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and arthritis caused by fractures or repeated sprains are the most common reasons people seek help.
Are You a Candidate for Total Ankle Replacement?
Not everyone with an ankle problem needs or would benefit by having a total ankle replacement. If you suffer from debilitating pain and your activities are extremely limited because of severe rheumatoid arthritis or degenerative arthritis, you may be a candidate for total ankle replacement. Others who undergo the procedure do so because they have had previous ankle surgeries that have failed or they experienced a traumatic injury to the ankle (such as a displaced fracture) that later resulted in arthritis. Patients who are significantly overweight are discouraged from having the surgery because the ankle joint is smaller than most other joints and receives considerable force. Although the replacement is best for someone who is active, in most cases younger people who want to continue participating in extreme sports or regular high-impact exercise should explore other options with their physician.
What to Expect If You Undergo Total Ankle Replacement
Like any other surgical procedure, a total ankle replacement has risks that you should discuss with your doctor. If, together, you decide that it is the best choice for you, it's necessary to undergo some pre-surgery testing to determine that you are healthy enough to proceed with surgery. Once you are cleared for surgery, you will be given a date for your procedure and instructions on any preparations necessary before you come to the hospital.
On the day of surgery, you will be taken to pre-op, where you will change into a surgical gown. The staff, including doctors and nurses, will review your information with you. In addition to general anesthesia, you will receive an ankle block, which numbs you from the ankle down and helps reduce the pain in the 16 to 18 hours that follow surgery. The procedure involves making a vertical incision at the front of the ankle and making precise cuts within the bones so the prosthesis will fit properly. Generally, the surgery is complete in two to two-and-a-half hours.
After surgery, you will most likely stay in the hospital for two to three days. Your leg will be in a splint similar to a half-cast and your stitched incision will be covered in a dressing. You will be encouraged to get up and move around as soon as you feel able, although you will not be allowed to put any weight on your healing foot for approximately six weeks. Depending on how you feel, you will use crutches or a walker device, although some patients may require a wheelchair, particularly if they have other health problems or are overweight. When you leave the hospital, you will be given a prescription for pain medication. Some people make the move to milder over-the-counter painkillers quickly, others need more time.
Two weeks after your surgery, you will return to the doctor. Your stitches will be removed and X-rays will be taken to ensure that healing is taking place and that the prosthesis is still properly aligned. If everything is proceeding normally, the splint is removed and replaced by a cast that will stay on from four to six weeks. During those four to six weeks, you are still unable to put any weight on your foot. You will return to the doctor again after this time, and the cast will be replaced by a removable boot, sometimes referred to as an aircast or pneumatic boot. Your doctor will discuss physical therapy with you. In order to regain strength and range of motion, most people come to physical therapy three times a week for about an hour per session. Some patients require a month of therapy while others continue for several months. Age, the extent of your surgery, your general health and the amount of inflammation you have after surgery all play a role in the length of time it requires you to recover.
Throughout the process, we are with you every step of the way. We are always available to answer your questions and address any concerns. It's our desire to see you back on your feet and leading a normal, pain-free life as soon as possible.

As some of you are aware a number of flaws in the security of Internet related services have been purposely buried in the name of national security and are slowly being exposed. We welcomed another such release recently. It even has a cool name: The ShadowBrokers Arsenal.
Leaked NSA Malware Threatens Windows Users Around the World
The ShadowBrokers, an entity previously confirmed by The Intercept to have leaked authentic malware used by the NSA to attack computers around the world, today released another cache of what appears to be extremely potent (and previously unknown) software capable of breaking into systems running Windows.
Microsoft has commented on these issues and as always, if you maintain your patches you minimize your risk. Updates to the security cores of the Open Source community continue and I am continuing to upgrade and rebuild our server core libraries.
I also ran across firmware updates to my routers, in particular two such firmware updates were made available for the ASUS product line.
If you are unsure if your current network setup is up to date please give me a call to schedule a comprehensive review. If anything is more than clear in today's Internet, it is that you need to stay on top of security related issues.

Parliamentary Secretary David Lametti announced the opening of applications for the government's $950 million Innovation Superclusters Initiative at Innovation Place.
Applications open for $950 million Innovation Superclusters Initiative
Parliamentary Secretary David Lametti announced the opening of applications for one of the federal government's biggest funding initiatives.
The Innovation Superclusters Initiative will provide $950 million to "jumpstart innovation" for up to five applicants across the country. Lametti, the Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development, noted that the hope is to create new hubs for research, development, and "transformative change."
"This isn't just the natural evolution of a market. This is game-changing development in an area that creates a new Silicon Valley, a new Tel Aviv, in some area," Lametti said, pointing to agriculture and agri-food business as a potential area for Saskatchewan.
"We're hoping to put these superclusters on the map — or quite the opposite, hoping these superclusters put these areas or collaborations on the map," he said.
According to Lametti, a successful application will have a strong "consortium" of large and small businesses as well as support from post-secondary institutions. Among other official criteria, the level of "creative economic ambition" would be a key factor in choosing successful applicants, he said.
The official announcement of the initiative came in Ottawa earlier this week, but many groups already had an idea it was coming due to the federal budget. Wes Jickling, the president and CEO of Innovation Saskatchewan, said he's already been in talks with organizations in the province to put together an application in the agriculture sector.
"We've got world-class experts and world-class companies and world-class producers," Jickling said. "(Saskatchewan) is the place where a supercluster should be."
Lametti's speech came on the heels of an announcement of a $4.47 million grant from the federal government to the U of S to support the construction of a new Livestock and Forage Centre of Excellence near Saskatoon.

Get Your Skinhead-Look with the Best Head Shaver with Wheels
One of the most revolutionary movements in fashion is a skinhead. A skinhead is that person or a group of persons who usually join the punk music movements with a close-cropped or fully shaven head. To exclude its ideology, skinhead's fashion style has always been a trend since the 1970s, and until now, there are a lot of people who follow the method. Skinhead fashion style includes a pair of tight pants, a flannel shirt or hoodie, suspender, and mostly Dr Marten boots. But how to be in the manner with the skinhead without choosing the best electric head shaver to shave your head correctly? Today, there is an innovation in haircutting field called head shaver with wheels, and this innovation might work great for an aspiring skinhead.
Shaving by yourself is widely known today as personal grooming, and this kind of thing has been going on quite a while. Well, if you think that it is a piece of cake to shave your head, you might be wrong, because cutting your head tidily requires a bit of skill and a proper tool. And for you who wants to have a skinhead-like hairstyle with the best result, a head shaver with wheels is the best thing for you. Healthcare experts have brought a comfortable technology in a piece of head shaver with wheels. Since there was always a problem for men when it comes to personal grooming, a head shaver with wheels was created innovatively to reach the best result. By using it, shaving your head will be both faster and more comfortable.
The technology presented in a head shaver with wheels makes it easier for you to shave your head as you like with a grip which is usually made of rubber and a set of several blades. With the head shaver with wheels, you have to hold the shaver following the unshaved part of your head and keep the wheels on the short hair all over your scalp. If you want to get a skinhead pattern as you like, you can slowly lead the blade according to what kind of model you want to have on your head. Some line or zigzag patterns can be created easily with this head shaver with wheels. At last, with a head shaver with wheels, you can have the best skinhead hairstyle which is suitable for the skinhead fashion style to make you look very appropriate to rebel the unfair system.

The financial services industry generates huge volumes of data and storing it safely and correctly has always been an essential element of business. Data, however, is typically stored in old mainframe systems, which while robust and capable, become problematic when new age analysis is required, as it can be difficult and time consuming to run a data query on older systems.
Time is money though and technology is changing the potential outcome for many – and probably every- industry, and taking a smart approach to analysing data, particularly in financial services, will provide a competitive edge in sustaining business and retaining customers.
Tech beckons
As Artificial Intelligence (AI) progresses, facilitating a simpler process of analysing data,
the results could be wonderfully productive. As an example, perhaps a section in an insurance or investment product policy sees many complaints or queries arise. It could be that the wording is confusing or the selling process quite complex. Using this feedback as discovered in your data on complaints logged, allows you the opportunity to reassess how a product is presented to clients. By ignoring crucial information that your data could be telling you, you're simply shooting yourself in the foot.
You could fix any issues in communication as well, by looking in to the preferred language of your customers. It may seem thoughtless to some if they opted for English when onboarding as a client, but you continue to send communication in another language. Analysing data in cases like these can show you go the extra mile and listen to what your clients need. Imagine if you drilled even deeper into insights on clients and how much better your service could be? AI also has a significant role to play in getting new clients from scratch.
Achieve the artificial sweet spot
Embracing technology is, without question, a necessary step forward in managing clients, and will allow you to do more than ever before. Keep in mind that technology and Big Data will make it harder for businesses to hide from the Regulator, who is also looking to use similar technologies to assist in its market oversight role. As the industry shifts and regulation like the RDR could massively change the way financial services are offered, being prepared – and making the most of what you have available to you, taking cognisance of the best technology for your business - is the sensible way forward.
The customer has always been important, but technology is changing the game. Crunching data goes a long way to protecting the consumer, if you listen and properly interpret the results. Targeting the right products to the right customers assists in achieving fair customer outcomes, the demonstration of which will be required for survival in the industry of the future.
Data is valuable and will only become more useful in the task of balancing the customer experience with the right amount of tech-savvy and human interaction. I urge you to do your due diligence on any third-party providers and new tech systems you might take on, keeping sustainable solutions and compliance with safe cyber measures as priorities.

finnCap Research Company Note - 27 November 2018

Sector: Technology & Telecoms
Altitude Group (ALT): Trading update; NED appointment
Key data
- Share price (p) 85.8
- Target price (p) 105.0
- Market cap (£m) 46.9
- Enterprise value (£m) 45.5
9 weeks post reporting of interims, Altitude has revealed a fleet of positive KPIs. Continuing progress has delivered 47% growth in numbers of members processing orders with 75% (73%) placing repeat orders; engagement with 65% (39%) of the AIM membership; 41% growth in numbers of sales orders and 35% growth by value. Gross Transaction Revenue (GTR) earned by Altitude is 2.4%, ahead of the 2.3% expected by management at this stage. Supplier numbers continue to grow, and the board has been strengthened with the appointment of Keith Edelman as an independent NED with extensive experience. The Group is demonstrating execution of the bolder growth strategy revealed in September which we defined as 'Capture then Convert', and can now advance from 'on-boarding' to 'orders', and 'orders' to 're-orders'. Target price 105p reiterated, with trading for FY18 confirmed as broadly in line with expectations.
KCOM (KCOM): Interims
Key data
- Share price (p) 57.7
- Target price (p) 80.0
- Market cap (£m) 298.1
- Enterprise value (£m) 406.6
Interims highlight a familiar KCOM results recipe but sharper ingredients: strength in Hull & East Yorkshire, where the group is delivering fibre initiatives with high near term capex – but which maintains consistent and strong margins, and humble growth; challenges in Enterprise (also evident across the peer group); and expected decline in National Network Services (NNS) but at a greater scale than predicted. Management change, a switch to IFRS15, and disappointing performance, have led to changes to forecasts which left the uncovered dividend unsustainable, thus guidance has been halved – having historically been the valuation case. The £32m NNS goodwill write-off expresses an acknowledgement that the division has challenges, and highlights the stoic support H&EY has given to the national divisions since we began coverage in FY02. While the pension is something of an albatross round the neck of a sum of the parts, it is currently a net asset in balance sheet terms, albeit the next (likely negative) actuarial valuation is only due by FY20. However, our new 80p (120p) target price equates to both 9x group FY19 EBITDA (11x FY20) or a reasonable sum of the parts, and still generates a 3.8% dividend yield: upside remains from current levels.

D4T4 Solutions (D4T4): Strong H1 weighting built on recent contract wins
Key data
- Share price (p) 204.5
- Target price (p) 240.0
- Market cap (£m) 78.0
- Enterprise value (£m) 65.8
These impressive interims are on track with expectations – a return to a more usual H1 weighting compared with LY. The half is boosted by delivery of the large contracts signed just before the YE, as well as the previously noted £1.7m b/f from LY by IFRS 15. That sees LY sales restated from £20.1m to £18.4m and Adj. FD EPS from 11.0p to 8.8p. That revenue/profit shift into H1 and the contract wins saw a trebling of H1 revenue and a swing from H1 loss LY to £3.4m Adj. PBT this year. Moreover, it converted into FCF of £9.0m, boosting net cash to over £12m after the dividend payment. Cash is now 16% of the market capitalisation.

HML Holdings (HMLH): Good interim results
Key data
- Share price (p) 30.5
- Target price (p) 53.0
- Market cap (£m) 13.9
- Enterprise value (£m) 14.8
The group has reported a good set of interim results reflecting record half-year earnings despite an uncertain UK property market. We retain our 2019 full-year forecast and our 53p target price.
Mark Paddon | firstname.lastname@example.com
Sector: Industrials
Gooch & Housego (GHH): FY results in line; strong order book
Key data
- Share price (p) 1 400.0
- Target price (p) 1 675.0
- Market cap (£m) 345.2
- Enterprise value (£m) 355.9
Full-year results were in line with the company's pre-close update, but slightly ahead of our forecasts, reflecting the recovery in subsea fibre couplers in H2. The order book has risen by an underlying 17%, supporting a strong start to the year. No changes to forecasts. The results should provide some reassurance to the share price that has been particularly weak recently and should be regarded as a buying opportunity. We maintain our 1,675p price target, which offers good upside to current levels.

There was a meeting down by the river this morning...
...not highly publicized but when I heard about it I had to be there. Got there as soon as I could after a 10:00 a.m. medical appointment in Midland. Despite the fact that one person confronted me and asked me what sort of nasty thing I was going to write about her today, I met several very pleasant people. No time for more on this right now; I'd rather find out what the news media says about the meeting first anyway. Be sure to read The Saginaw News and Midland Daily News to find out all about it. Terry Camp from Channel 12 TV was there, so you should hear about it from him as well. Will be back to ramble later.

Welcome to Chuck's Place, where Chuck Ketchel expresses his thoughts, insights, and experiences! Many of the shamanic and psychological terms used in Chuck's essays are defined in Tools & Definitions on our Psychotherapy website.
I was named Charles at birth after my maternal grandfather, a powerful man of boundless energy and spirit. Charles was a successful banker, a self-made and self-educated man, a staunch Republican and capitalist. His energy and spirit live on in me but, from my earliest memories, I firmly rejected the heaviness and adultness of his name, Charles. I softened it to Chuck and have insisted upon that name to this day. What hasn't escaped me, however, is the synchronicity of my adult life being driven by the discoveries and practices of two other "Charleses," Carl Jung and Carlos Castaneda.
I was introduced to their works in my teenage years and they have never ceased to guide and inform my adult life. The intent of my life is truth. These two men shared that intent and paved the way for others to discover their own deepest truths. Recently, a reader told me that my writing was starting to lose her, as it favored too much the description of shamanic practices. This coincided with my opening Jung's The Red Book, realizing that it was time to delve deeper into his journey. What I have come to realize is that my role in this life seems to be the integration of Carl and Carlos.
I remember a dear friend and prominent Jungian analyst once telling me that he had read Castaneda's The Art of Dreaming and found it to be "worthless, total nonsense." At that time I was already deeply immersed in the shamanic practices being offered by Carlos in Tensegrity workshops and was experiencing powerful new truths. This was not an intellectual affair nor was it the trickery of a charismatic shadow leader. This was personal experience, deep inner experience.
Today, as I pick up The Red Book, where Jung's inner process is finally revealed, upon which the foundation of modern psychology rests, what we discover is a man talking to his soul, and, his soul talking back! This is not an intellectual affair nor a psychotic process, but a true journey of knowledge rooted in deep personal experience. This journey required "guts of steel," as don Juan stated to Carlos, as the requirement for taking the shamanic journey to become "a man of knowledge." Truly, Jung took the shamanic journey.
For me, the shamanic world and depth psychology are parallel paths to self-knowledge and evolution, each offering valuable tools for the journey. Yesterday, in Message # 617, Jeanne and Jan spoke of channeling and noted the similarity of guidance offered by many channeled entities. For those who channel, their lives are transformed by the guidance they are challenged to integrate, a true journey into another world. What we discover in Jung's The Red Book is his own transformation, effected by his own channeled encounters with entities who proposed knowledge that he was compelled to explore and ultimately integrate into his understanding of the nature of reality. As we sat and watched the film Tuning In, I couldn't help but note the entities use of "Jungian words," such as shadow, synchronicity, and archetype. These were all concepts that emerged from Jung's conversations with his soul.
Equally, the channelers speak of our ability to experience infinity, now. This is the shamanic journey, the tools of which require finding one's energy body, fully achievable through the techniques that Carlos passed along in Magical Passes and that Carl introduced in the process of active imagination. Both Carl and Carlos insisted that real knowledge can only be achieved through a personal experiential process.
True to my namesakes, I engage in an experiential process and attempt to make accessible the valuable tools of both Carl and Carlos, in taking the inner journey. This inner journey is the most meaningful process anyone can undertake, as stressed by the channelers in Tuning In, in Jeanne's messages, and by the expression of Jung's inner work in The Red Book and by the works of Carlos Castaneda. If I were to characterize my synthesis of this week's synchronicities, I would put it like this: Tuning In to The Red Book is The Art of Dreaming.
I close this blog with one final synchronicity. I open The Red Book to this quote on page 233:
"I am weary, my soul, my wandering has lasted too long, my search for myself outside of myself. Now I have gone through events and find you behind all of them. For I made discoveries on my erring through events, humanity, and the world. I found men. And you, my soul, I found again, first in images within men and then you yourself. I found you where I least expected you. You climbed out of a dark shaft."
As always, should anyone wish to write, I can be reached at: firstname.lastname@example.com or feel free to post a comment.
Until we meet again,

Before you go to a chiropractor, you need to ask your doctor if it is okay to have them do the treatment especially when the issue is on the back, neck and spinal portion. Any condition that you experience on your body, you do not go to a chiropractor unless you get the go signal from your doctor. When the doctor says go for it, you have to make sure that you check each chiropractor's previous clients and ask for feedbacks. If they do give you a recommendation, that is already given that the recommended chiropractor that your friends gave is already known to be licensed and trained.

While today letters such as ba, ta, tha, ya, are easily distinguished by points, this was not so in the early days and all these letters used to be written simply as a straight line.
From this very basic system of writing there developed over the ages, various types of script, such as Kufi, Maghribi, Naskh, etc., which spread all over the world.
The later invention of printing with standardised types has contributed to formalising the writing.
However, as far as the actual script of the Qur"an is concerned, there were two important steps which brought about the forms in which we have the Qur"anic text as it is today. These were the introduction of:
· Vowelling marks (tashkil).
· Diacritical marks (i"jam).
That God and His apostle dissolve obligations with the pagans" (9: 3).
"That God dissolves obligations with the pagans and the apostle."
The mistake occurred through wrongly reading rasulihi in place of rasuluhu, which could not be distinguished from the written text, because there were no signs or accents indicating the correct pronunciation. Unless someone had memorised the correct version he could out of ignorance easily commit such a mistake. [See also fihrist, 1, pp. 87-8.] The signs or accents to prevent such problems were introduced not long before the i"jam and then got the shape they have to this day: [Hughes,T.P.: A Dictionary of Islam London,1895 p.687.]
It has been suggested that the origin of fatha is alif, the origin of kasra is ya (without dots as in early books), and the origin of damma is waw. Hamza was previously written as 2 dots. [Abbott, N.: The Rise of the North-Arabic Script and its Koranic Development, Chicago, 1939, p. 39]
The Arabic letters, as we know them today, are made up of lines and points. The latter are called i"jam. The ancient Arabic script did not have them, but consisted of strokes only.
The addition of diacritical points to the plain writing of strokes helped to distinguish the various letters which could be easily mixed up.
Without dots a word cannot be easily recognised. With i"jam, the letters of the word can easily be distinguished.
Although the i"jam (diacritical points) was already known in pre-Islamic times, they were rarely used. The very early copies of the Qur"anic manuscripts (and Arabic writing in general) did not have these signs. They were apparently introduced into the Qur"anic script during the time of the fifth Umayyad Caliph, "Abd al-Malik bin Marwan (66-86H/685-705) and the governorship of Al-Hajjaj in Iraq, when more and more Muslims began to read and study the Qur"an, some of whom did not know much of the Qur"an, and others were of non-Arab origin. It is said of the well-known tabi"l Al-Du"all that he was the first to introduce these points into the Qur"anic text.

Saturday on Fox News Channel's "Fox & Friends," while discussing federal courts in Hawaii and Maryland halting President Donald Trump's new restrictions on travelers from majority-Muslim countries, Harvard Law professor Alan Dershowitz said if Trump's predecessor former President Barack Obama had issued the same order, the courts would not have intervened on the constitutionality of the executive order. "The idea of focusing so heavily on campaign rhetoric and essentially saying, look, if Obama had issued the very same order with the same words it would be constitutional, but if Trump issues it, it's unconstitutional because he said some things about Muslims in the run-up to the campaign," he said. Dershowitz continued, "That's not the way the law is supposed to operate. And finally, the Trump Justice Department is getting smart. They are appealing this not to the Ninth Circuit where they are likely to get an adverse ruling. They are appealing it to the Fourth Circuit. The Fourth Circuit is a much more conservative court. And much more likely to uphold the travel ban, and then if the case goes to the Supreme Court and ties four to four, Trump wins." The main thing that's extremely wrong with the decision of six Federal Judges blocking Trump's travel ban, is that Obama's travel bans on Muslim nations through his Presidency never got even one ounce of the same treatment as Trump's travel ban. Hate to say it but just like Obama's travel ban on Muslim nations throughout his Presidency...They were just as Constitutional as President Trump's travel ban on six Muslim nations that have major problems with radical Islam. The only difference really between Obama's and Trump's lawful travel bans because both used their Presidential power to ban dangerous nations in the middle east from entry into America, is that Trump's lawful travel ban orders are basically being blocked by the Federal court system...Due to the lawful travel ban EO's written up by Trump were written up by Trump. Both of these President's bans were both lawful and Constitutional, the only difference on the executive order travel ban is simply the signature. If they are declaring President Trump's travel ban on six Muslim nations as xenophobic, then Obama's was also xenophobic. Like I said the only difference in both President's lawful and Constitutional travel bans is the signature.

As some of you know, earlier in the summer, I sold baked goods and greens from my garden at the local farmers market in order to make a little bit of cash while I was unemployed. I had known for a while that it was against market rules to sell homemade pickles and salsa, but a few weeks ago* I finally decided to look into why. I thought it was some sort of stupid local or state rule, but it turns out it's actually a national thing put in place by the FDA. I talked to someone from my county's health department, and he told me that if I want to sell pickles or salsa, I have to take a special class and then submit my canning recipe to a "processing authority" to whom I would also have to submit a sample of my product for testing. I looked into these special classes, and they're only taught at about two dozen universities spread around the country. Moreover, the class is only 2 or 3 days and costs $400 - 500 per student (and that cost is in addition to whatever you might spend traveling to the site if you aren't lucky enough to live by one of these select universities). The FDA's stated purpose for requiring these classes is to prevent botulism, which I don't deny is a risk factor involved with home canning. However, botulism is a threat with ALL home canned goods — not just pickles and salsa. I tried to find a rationale for why the FDA targeted these specific items, but I couldn't find anything online. (Here are the FDA's regulations pertaining to the ban, if you can find anything in the legalese that mentions what's so special about pickles and salsa, let me know.) At any rate, the thing about making pickles and salsa is that the ingredients are pretty cheap, especially at this time of year, and if I could sell pickles or whatever at the farmers market, I could probably make a tidy profit off of it. I don't have $400+ to drop on a special class, though, and I doubt many other people at my local farmers market do either. The thing I like about going to market, which admittedly might not be true for all farmers markets, is that practically anyone can sell there as long as their items are relevant to the market. I don't know if this was part of the FDA's intention for banning pickles and salsa, but I feel like the rules severely restrict creativity and innovation. Home canning was a lost art for a while, but it's a made a huge resurgence, and I think people deserve to experiment and offer their products to other people if that's what they want to do. Luckily, I can still make pickles and salsa at home for myself and my family, but it just infuriates me that this rule is in place when it seems so impartial considering any canned good could be a source of botulism.
* I was really ragey about this, but then I got my new job and became distracted by that. I canned some jam today, though, and that reminded me of this BS with the FDA.

!! History Commons Alert, Exciting News
David Addington, the chief counsel for Vice President Dick Cheney, gives a statement to FBI Section Chief Timothy Fuhrman as part of the Plame Wilson leak investigation. Fuhrman is accompanied by lawyers from the Justice Department's Office of Special Counsel. Addington discusses the meeting he had with Cheney's chief of staff, Lewis Libby, shortly after Libby's conversation with New York Times reporter Judith Miller concerning Valerie Plame Wilson (see July 8, 2003). Addington says he is not sure of the date of the conversation, but fixes it somewhere between July 6 and July 12, 2003. He recalls it as taking place in an anteroom near Cheney's office in the White House that Libby used as an office. According to Addington, Libby made "a general inquiry about the CIA's relationship with people who are not employees but perform assignments for them." Fuhrman's report on his conversation with Addington "does not reflect that Mr. Libby made any reference to a spouse or wife [Plame Wilson], either when Mr. Libby asked this question or at any other point during the conversation in the anteroom with Mr. Addington." [US District Court for the District of Columbia, 2/14/2006 ]

Marbelis was born in Repelón in 1982 and was fortunate enough to grow up with a twin sister, Cibelis. Her mother, who was one of 14 children, was a very caring and hard working role model for Marbelis and her sister. Growing up in such a huge family really taught her valuable lessons about what it takes to be part of a successful family. It's apparent that these traits have been passed down to Marbelis.
School was a marvelous experience for Marbelis. She was consistently at the top of her class. She received a scholarship to continue her education after high school and also was able to participate in numerous trips due to her high academic marks. Many of the same teachers that she had are still teaching today and greet her with enthusiasm when they see her. After school, Marbelis studied in Barranquilla, with hopes of becoming a bilingual secretary. She ended up receiving her degree and license to teach Castellana and English. She currently is teaching English at one of the other schools in town, I.E. Maria Immaculada.
Marbelis's first daughter, Urimarcela, was born in Repelón as well in 2004. Uri (the common nickname that everyone uses, including myself) has a younger sister. Her father currently works as a technician. For fun, Uri loves playing with her friends, watching televisión, and spending time with her sister. At school, Uri loves recess (what 12-year old wouldn't) and her English classes. On the other hand, math and PE are her least favorite activities during the school day.
According to Marbelis, Repelón is a very "cozy", safe town that is filled with good people who have a desire to better their lives. However, in order to fulfill this desire to better their lives, many people have to leave and move to surrounding cities, thus depriving Repelón of some of its best citizens. In Uri's opinion, the best part about Repelón is the library where she is able to do her homework with her friends.
Pueblo life is something that suits Marbelis well. She loves her life, her house, her family, and the fact that she gets to give back to a place where she has spent her entire life. At the same time, she does realize that sometimes it is difficult to achieve all that she wants to in life due to certain limitations that the pueblo presents. Uri views life in the pueblo as very tranquil and safe and likes that there aren't high rates of delinquency in town.
Both mother and daughter would love to visit the United States in the near future. Marbelis has had this dream since she was a child and started studying English in school. She sees the United States as a developed country that presents many opportunities for its citizens. She also wants to strengthen her English abilities and knows that living in an English speaking country is one of the best ways to accomplish this. For Uri, the United States presents her with the chance to also improve her English and to visit lots of famous touristic sites.
Personally, it has been an immense pleasure having these two in class together. Overall, parental involvement in their children's lives here in Repelón is lacking. To see that there are parents who care and want the best for their children is refreshing and encouraging. Marbelis is an amazing role model for both her daughters and the other citizens of Repelón. Uri has a very bright future ahead of her that is filled with endless possibilities. I have no doubt whatsoever that both will continue to do great things going forward!

Few people at risk for heart disease understand food labels
An Irish survey of 200 men and women examines awareness, understanding, and use of food labels in preventing lifestyle-related disease in a primary care setting. Participants responded to a questionnaire devised by the lead author. The study identifies gaps in consumers' use and interpretation of food labels, especially among men and people at risk of cardiovascular disease. The authors conclude that greater awareness of food labels and label improvements are needed.
Munich, Germany – Aug. 28, 2018: Many consumers have difficulty using and understanding food labels, especially men and people at risk for heart disease, according to research presented at ESC Congress 2018 today.1
Diet is considered a modifiable risk factor for heart disease prevention. 2 In Ireland, as in many other nations, food labels provide nutritional information to help consumers make informed food choices. But this observational study identifies gaps in adults' use of food labels.
"People find food labels confusing and don't know what to look for," said Ms Claire Duffy, a clinical nurse specialist in general practice, MSc preventive cardiology, in Ballina, Ireland, and the study's lead author. "They still have difficulty understanding and interpreting food labels."
The study involved 200 men and women, ages 18 to 85, attending a primary care practice. Ms Duffy devised a brief questionnaire administered during a one-month period in 2017. Participants supplied demographic data and answered questions about risk factors for cardiovascular disease as well as use and understanding of food labels.
Seventy-five percent were female; 40% self-reported being overweight or obese.
Significantly more women than men (65% versus 37%) always or often read food labels, the study found. Just 5% of females said they never look at food labels, compared with more than a third (35%) of males.
Having a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD) did not necessarily translate into greater use of food labels. Notably, 40% of participants with CVD said they do not read food labels. Among CVD patients that do read labels, two-thirds (67%) read about fats, but only a third (33%) read about saturated fats, fibre, and salt.
Among participants who had a family member with diabetes, 56% read the sugar and 60% read the salt content of foods.
The study also reveals an important gap in label usage among people with elevated blood cholesterol.
"You would think people with high cholesterol would check the saturated fat content on food labels, but that did not always happen," Ms Duffy said.
When asked to gauge whether a sample food product had low, medium, or high levels of fat, sugar, fibre, and sodium based on its nutrition label, participants had difficulty making sense of the information. Only 20% knew the product had a medium level of fat, and just 14% correctly identified its low-sugar content.
By contrast, most participants successfully deciphered a "traffic light" food label, where green, amber, and red colours are used to signify levels of fat, saturated fat, sugar, and salt.
One survey participant remarked that she knew more about the contents of her facial cream than the nutritional elements of the foods she purchases.
Said Ms Duffy: "Food labels need to be improved, especially for illiterate groups and those with colour and vision deficiency."
She added that the study findings highlight the need for enhanced public education. This ought to begin with efforts across all educational settings to teach children and their parents about food labels, healthy eating, and nutrition. This should continue in adulthood with education provided through primary care, community settings, and media outlets. Perhaps supermarkets and Internet sites could establish dedicated "healthy food" sections with foods where people could easily find items low in sugar, salt, and fat, and high in fibre, Ms Duffy suggested.

Geothermal energy holds key benefits to clean electricity
Renewable energy projects are beginning to show the world just how efficient and safe, producing electricity can be. Rising costs of fossil fuels have given cities and nations a reason to look to nature to provide the power by which we live. While alternative energy is a fairly recent trend, countless hours have already been spent researching and experimenting to create sources of energy that can be reliable and efficient.
Geothermal energy, currently, only supplies about 1% of the world's power, but the possibilities are virtually limitless. A 2007 study by MIT has published that geothermal energy could supply the world with enough energy to power our homes, businesses, and industries well into the future. Geothermal wells can be drilled all over the world and leave a relatively small footprint. Initial costs of constructing a new geothermal plant can run high, but with oil over $125 a barrel and rising, it would not take long to recoup those costs.
Geothermal energy generally works by drilling wells deep into the Earth and pumping water that travels down one well, is heated by hot rock, and is retrieved by the other well. The water traveling underground transforms into steam, which in turn, powers turbines connected to the power grid. Water that does not reach steam temperature, can be piped to low level heating systems such as those found in homes and greenhouses. Though efficiency may decrease as heat sources are depleted, the Earth's mantle does replenish the heat stored in these deep rock layers.
The advantages of geothermal energy are many. This energy source is extremely reliable as it is available around the clock. Unlike solar energy and wind power, once a geothermal plant is installed, the exact amount of energy can be calculated which in turn will help to reduce future rate hikes. In combination with emission control systems, environmental pollutants can be cut to 0.1% of current fossil fuel plants. Also, this technology is scalable to allow energy production for large cities down to small towns.
Geothermal does have a few disadvantages which have kept it from becoming a front runner in energy production. The initial costs of drilling and constructing plants, can be very intimidating. As with all new technology, it takes a serious investment and well thought out plan to make this energy source function. In addition, concerns over contaminated ground water need to be further addressed. Additives used to increase the efficiency of steam rising to the surface, need to be properly controlled and kept separate from sources of drinking water.
Many different nations are beginning their journey to provide effective and reliable, geothermal energy. Germany has been developing this technology and has recently launched a massive plant that harnesses the heat of the earth. This plant can currently power about 10,000 homes or 3.4 megawatts of electricity.
The United States has been experimenting with geothermal power since the first generator was created in the early 1900's. Today the U.S. generates about 2850 MW of electricity using geothermal technology and boasts the largest use of geothermal sources for power.
New sources of energy are being developed all over the world, and geothermal energy is just one more energy source in an arsenal that can help to eliminate our need for fossil fuels. By developing this technology further, we can begin to build a reliable source of energy that can help to backup the energy produced from wind, hydro, and other alternative energies.

Who would have thought that I am going to wear this sandal during winter time! Yes, I wore this for the first yesterday because the weather was too nice! Texas weather is very confusing, really! I tell you, even my bulbs are confused! They are already up even thought spring is not here yet. Then, all of a sudden..snow came...they all died, wahhhh :-(.
Anyway, I am so ready for spring, even summer. The cold season made us all sick! Don't get me wrong, I like winter...but it is too cold for me. I feel wasted every time because all I want to do is stay home....and be lazy! I need to go out more often and be productive...it isn't good for me and my health to stay home all the time....not to mention "cabin fever". What about you? Are you ready for the spring and summer?

Westinghouse Petite Ceiling Fan And Light Antique Brass - I presume you're a DIY and have determined that placing ceiling fans in your house makes good sense.
The industry has determined that the cooling effect of a ceiling fan can make a room feel at least 7 degrees cooler than it actually is and the consequent adjustment to your thermostat can cut your air conditioning -related energy prices by as much as 35% to 45%. In the cold months, your heating expenses can be reduced by reversing the fan blades so they push warm air down from the ceiling too.
So, you are sold on the thought of installing ceiling fans. The following thing to do will be to make a decision as to what brand, fashion, etc. you are going to invest your cash in. Figure out who the major players have been in the fabrication of ceiling fans and how long they have been at it. It's not always who sells the most ceiling fans but rather, what consumers say concerning the assorted brands. The Net might help but you've got to be wary about sales pitches that are disguised as testimonials.
However, before I get off the issue of what to purchase, a word or two to the wise. This is not a purchase you want to make together with the notion of saving as much cash as possible on these units. Producers of inexpensive units are becoming more adroit at making their products look fantastic and more.

Along the road to Hebron there are many grapevines, as this part of Palestine is known for the best-tasting grapes. In one of these vineyards there is a strange sight where one grapevine is fenced and there is a sign in Hebrew of the name of this tree's owner. Behind this sight is a story that is bizarre and amusing in a painful way.
Land-grab policies
Along the streets around Jerusalem and Hebron, shacks can be seen and next to them is a police post. They are situated on Palestinian properties that are about to become Israeli settlements. The process is for individual settlers to build haphazard homes on Palestinian lands. Of course their presence and their infuriating actions disturb the Palestinians who would get into frictions with them, so then came Israeli police posts to "protect" the innocent settlers from the "violent" Palestinians. A few more months and years down the road, the temporary shacks have become permanent homes and a completely developed modern settlement community.
Legal responsibilities shunned
The apartheid wall that snakes around the city is in strategically planned line to continue redrawing the municipal borders of Jerusalem.Maha Akeel
Israel remains in belligerent occupation of the territories it dominated since the June 1967 war. Consequently, the Fourth Geneva Convention and other provisions of International Humanitarian Law apply to these territories. This includes East Jerusalem which, despite Israeli attempts to annex the city as part of Israel, retains its status as occupied territory. The EU recently took a strong stance on Israeli settlements by formally having its member states differentiate between Israel and the territories occupied by Israel in 1967 and to refrain from any official dealings with Israeli institutions in these occupied areas.SHOW MORE

I Am A Secret Weapon...barn name "Ruger."
|We have a tradition...whenever we have a new baby born here, we have to get a picture of me holding it!!
I am so in love with him!!!!!!!!!! And so glad we finally have a cool name :)
|We have a tradition...whenever we have a new baby born here, we have to get a picture of me holding it!!
Now were talkin. That's a name for a horse.
Don't even think of naming one Glock ;D
:) I am (happily) surprised that you chose Ruger. I would have expected something like Springfield or Beretta. Awfully cute!ReplyDelete
Too cute! We used to have a yellow lab named Ruger as well, and to top it off, we had a black lab named Benelli!
Gotta love gun names!
We have been dying trying to come up with a name. A few litters ago, a guy bought a Lab from us and named it Kimber. Ever since then, I've wanted to name an animal Kimber or Ruger.
The neat thing is that we can name all his babies after weapons now :) Fun!
Those are some awesome pictures!! Btw, I love your blog. :)ReplyDelete
Wow. :D Could somebody explain to an ignorant gal why horses end up with long names? I'm rather new to horses (a story in and of itself) so I just don't understand...Snip is long enough for me :) (Instead of shortening the name I lengthen it. Except for when I call the stinker "Bub".)
However, I think Ruger is a great name (even though I'm not very fond of any of the Rugers I have ever shot.) Particularly for a horse that color :)
I don't really know why! At least in minis, the registered names always start with your farm prefix. For example..we're "I Am Ranch" so all our foals are "I Am ----". That way your babies are always easy to track. People will a lot of times include the horses pedigree in their names. Like with Ruger - his granddaddy is a famous stallion named Candylands Best Kept Secreat. So thus the "secret" in his name. And so on..... :DDelete
Oh. Now if finally makes sense! I was just curious because whenever I hear racehorse names they are always so long and cumbersome. Barn names are great idea :) Thanks for the enlightenment, Lisa!Delete
