Volunteering With Spraoi
You don't necessarily have to be an artist to be involved in the arts. Hundreds of people volunteer their skills and experience to Spraoi productions, in particular at festival time. People of all ages and backgrounds bring energy and enthusiasm to Waterford Spraoi Festival and Parade. We need organisers as well as performers and prop-makers. We'd love you to have a great new experience and we will find you a role to suit your skills and schedule.
Are you interested in volunteering with Spraoi? If so, we'd love to hear from you.
Tel: 051-841808 or email Vicky Wall with your details for an application form.
Why do they do it? We asked…
Mairead Flynn: Head Act Liasion "the best things about volunteering with Spraoi is the amazing atmosphere over the 3 days and I've gotten to work with and alongside some of the best international & national acts during my 10 years volunteering"
Chris Dowling: Act Liaison "being involved in Spraoi is an unforgettable experience andeach year it gets better! Growing up seeing the acts and loving the festival it just made sense to volunteer. It's definitely one of the most rewarding experiences seeing the joy on people's faces around Waterford and knowing that you are a part of it"
Edel O Keefe: Site coordinator: "I volunteer with Spraoi every year because it feels like coming home to a really big family. Everyone is so friendly and cheerful and it makes the weekend even better when you get involved"
Mark Laherty: Festival Volunteer: "Spraoi is an excellent festival and an important part of community life in Waterford. It's great that there's an entirely free festival on every summer. I've enjoyed it since I was a small child. I wanted to volunteer to help bring this festival to the area."
William Ryan: Area Manager: "I love being involved in the festival, it's 3 days where you get to be part of a great festival, make some wonderful friends and see the public enjoy the shows, that wuld not be possible without the large number of volunteers. I enjoy volunteering because it's something unique, & you get front row access to all of the street theatre over the weekend. I get a sense of being involved, working with acts. The end of the festival is the best but also the hardest because you make a huge family over the 3 days, however knowing you get to work along side them the next year makes it all worthwhile"

I chuckled the other day when I read this brilliant interview with Curtis Jobling, author of the Wereworld series.
It was this question that made me smile:
If you could have an author superpower what would it be and why?
Oh I would have to have the Underpants of Bestsellingness I think! It means that every time I pulled on these under-crackers, my books would go crazy gangbusters in the bookstores – that's definitely the superpower that I would go with.
Keeping with yesterday's superpowered theme, it got me thinking; what would be my own superpower be?
Well, I think I would be Create-More-Hours-In-The-Day-Man. How cool would that be? Especially at the moment, when I seem to be on constant deadline. I would snap my fingers (or maybe even my toes) and at least ten brand new hours would appear, meaning I could get everything done that I needed to do, plus have time to read a mountain of comics, eat biscuits, fire up the Playstation and watch this week's Bake Off!
Of course, I would also like to be Never-Include-A-Typo-In-His-Manuscript-Man, but having more than one power is a bit greedy, wouldn't you say Supes?
So, what would your superpower be?

In one word, the market is: loud. Bartering happens in mere seconds, every second. The vendors chant and whistle tantalizing offers for dresses, magazines, chickens. We weave our way through the shanties and some how ended up surrounded by the fish sector on all sides. There was no making it out of here without passing at least three tables I thought to myself, each piled high with usipa, small fish. I fought the desire to breath for as long as my lungs could bear the detachment from air, until I caved. Instantly, I regretted it.
We sit at a local BBQ joint. A group of men plays a game of marbles. It is called "ball game". I can hear their howls and smack talk. They crunch on long poles of mujuwa, sugar cane, chewing and spitting out the thick fibers. One of them pauses to shout; the rest laugh at his taunt. The two players do not break concentration. They continue to play. The rest eat.

Ignored by it's owners and abused by the public, Grand Falls and the beautiful rock formations that surround its pool, endured irresponsible behavior for many years that relegated it to trash dump status. In 1972 the City of Joplin entered into an agreement with the water company to renew its city park status, but the agreement was only intended to relieve the water company of liability for the property and no effort was made to restore the site. Ignored and abused for another decade, no one needed to give directions to Grand Falls because no one ever asked. It could not be found in Joplin area tourism brochures. Drug pushers, drug users, and participants in underage drinking parties were its only visitors, adding to the litter daily. By the mid-80's it had become the #1 drug hangout in the four state area. And the litter piled up. The founders of Stream Team #48 moved to the Grand Falls area in 1983. As avid canoe enthusiasts, this family had been picking up after inconsiderate floaters on Ozark streams for many years and had witnessed the habitat destruction at areas of easy access and the volume of litter that would accumulate. The worst they had ever seen were child's play when compared to the challenges of Grand Falls.
The first winter was dedicated to getting acquainted with the history, ownership, law enforcement jurisdictions, and agreements of the place. Weekends were spent picking up seemingly endless amounts of broken glass and contemplating how the large items could be disposed of properly. For the next couple of years they suffered a lot of setbacks because they were concentrating on the problem, but were not addressing the cause of the problem. Their attempts at getting some help from law enforcement, city fathers, or the water company fell on deaf ears during this period. However, thanks to the Newton County Sheriff and some imaginative citizen detective work, they were finally able to take a big bite out of the cause and were well on their way to making progress by 1986-87. Shorty thereafter, the City of Joplin came through with trash barrels and regular pickups by the Parks and Recreation Department, and most larger items were moved to the road and hauled off in short order. Missouri Department of Conservation began the Stream Team Program in 1989 and it seemed a perfect fit.
Their son was 10 years old and would spend the next 8 years learning some valuable lessons as a Stream Team Member. Stream Team #48 has dedicated the past 20 years to preserving and improving the integrity of Grand Falls as a tourist attraction, a retreat for local families, and an endless source of possibilities for photographers of all stripes.
Today you will find Grand Falls prominently displayed in Joplin area tourism brochures(often on the cover).

I Am Flying My Kite
I am flying my kite,
arouse my heart to higher heights.
My isosceles triangular thought,
and circular rotating life,
tail balancing of past memories,
and lost ideas in flight.
With the strong wind of Consciousness;
I am flying my kite.
I've seen kites fly and others they twirl and spin like mine.
Kites are unpredictable,
yet I know can't fly beyond that single string of concerns,
that single line.
Hear my kite's tender fragile paper flutter,
almost tear;
see my kites color,
mostly green and some of blue,
a touch of red with a purple hue.
It took so long to get it up,
running and running breathless sweat,
hoping in trying and yet, and yet.
Can my kite fly me?
Is that something that it can do?
Has it in the short verse flown you?
I am flying my kite,
arouse us to higher heights.
Gentle wind pushes it around to the sun behind
for a moment or so I am flying blind.
I am flying my kite.

(Adds details)
ATHENS, July 2 (Reuters) - Greece's largest lender Piraeus Bank said on Monday it agreed to sell a pool of unsecured non-performing loans (NPLs) to APS Investments for around 50 million euros ($58.16 million), confirming what banking sources told Reuters last month.
The pool, dubbed Arctos, includes sour credit card and consumer loans equivalent to total legal claims of 2.24 billion euros ($2.61 billion). The sale is part of efforts to shrink the bank's bad debt load.
Piraeus, with 30.8 billion euros ($35.82 billion) of bad loans, is working on shrinking its stock of soured debt by 34 percent to 20.3 billion euros by the end of next year.
The value of the deal was 5 percent of the 1 billion euros outstanding principal amount," Piraeus Bank said.
Ernst & Young advised Piraeus on the transaction, which is expected to boost the bank's core equity tier 1 capital ratio by about 4 basis points.
The closing of the sale is subject to regulatory approvals by the authorities in Greece, including the Hellenic Financial Stability Fund, which owns 26.2 percent of the bank.
The sale of the loan pool, which has a gross value of 385 million euros on the bank's books, is expected to reduce its non-performing exposures (NPE) ratio by 30 basis points, Piraeus Bank said.
Active in distressed debt markets, APS has been buying, servicing and advising on non-performing loan (NPL) portfolios since 2004. ($1 = 0.8598 euros) (Reporting by George Georgiopoulos, editing by Louise Heavens)

A special guest recipe from Robin Robertson
Bibimbap, literally "stirred or mixed rice," features a variety of vegetables and is flavored with the spicy Korean chili paste known as kochujang. This dish is typically made with white sticky rice, but I prefer to use brown rice because it is more nutritious. Bibimbap is frequently served topped with a fried egg, which is obviously omitted from this vegan version. Swapping coconut aminos for the soy sauce will make this recipe soy free.
Serves 4
3 tablespoons kochujang paste (Korean chili paste)
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon dark sesame oil
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon agave nectar
1 tablespoon grapeseed oil or other neutral oil
1 large yellow onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, seeded and cut into matchsticks
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 cups shredded green cabbage
1 carrot, coarsely shredded
1 cup thinly sliced white or shiitake mushrooms
3 cups cooked brown rice
½ English cucumber, peeled and cut into matchsticks
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
In a bowl, combine the kochujang paste, soy sauce, sesame oil, vinegar, and agave. Stir to mix well. Set aside.
Heat the grapeseed oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the onion, bell pepper, and garlic and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Add the cabbage and carrots and stir-fry for 2 minutes longer. Stir in the mushrooms and stir-fry for 1 minute, then add the reserved sauce and cook, stirring to coat. Add the cooked rice and cook, stirring, until well mixed and heated through. To serve, spoon the rice and vegetable mixture into bowls and top with cucumber and sesame seeds. Serve extra kuchujang sauce and soy sauce on the side.

When it comes to the world of Hollywood, one thing is factual at the end of the day. We see the amazing action stars of today who are proven tough guys, but others are tough just for the camera. There are likely many examples of this. However, the world of action has become even bigger the last number of years due to the rise of superhero franchises and dystopian future movies as well. Regardless of what you like to watch in the action genre, there is a good chance you wondered if they were really that tough.
In the case of Bruce Lee, for example, it was very well-known that Lee was a legitimate badass. He knew a lot of the martial arts he showed off in movie form. While Bruce was not one who jumped into tournaments, the man invented his own martial art that is still in play today. He helped to invent what we now know to be Mixed Martial Arts! At the end of the day, playing a tough guy for him was not even close to a stretch. He really was one.
While many from the past could fit this like Lee, there are many others from the same time period who were mostly acting the entire time. Sometimes looking tough is good enough in Hollywood, so they do not often ask if someone is a legit fighter or tough guy. Interestingly, the same is usually never asked of women as "the look" is usually always more important. Kimberly from Power Rangers anyone? At the end of the day, fans want to likely know the score.
Who is legit and who is not? Which actors are actually as tough or close to as tough as the people they portray in movies or television? In this list, we'll break down ten such people. However, we'll also point to the ones who are not as tough as they appear to be as well. We hope you enjoy. Let us know if we miss your favorite that fits in either.
20 acts tough - Vin Diesel
We should be upfront and say that all can be tough in their own way. Vin Diesel is in very good shape and it is likely he could hurt some people if he chose to. However, when it comes down to putting him in front of an actual legit tough guy, he falls back every time. Vin has been an action star the bulk of his career, however. He was first known for this genre in Saving Private Ryan, then with the Fast and Furious and XXX movies. Not to mention the Chronicles of Riddick movies and The Pacifier.
Clearly, Vin is a very impressive actor in these major action movies and franchises. This is well-known from Vin however. What you may not know is that Vin is not as tough as he seems. This man is a HUGE Dungeons and Dragons fan. While there is nothing truly wrong with this, it does not exactly spew "tough guy." MMA star turned Pro-Wrestler Ronda Rousey outed Vin as a big fan of World of Warcraft fan on Conan years ago too, but Vin has never kept this side of him a secret. He actually wrote a forward for 30 Years of Adventure: A Celebration of Dungeons & Dragons. He's played for over 20 years and even attempted to get a tattoo with his character name in a movie he was in. Seriously.
19 don't mess with - Jean-Claude Van Damme
In the search for a new Bruce Lee years ago, the world of action found one in Jean-Claude Van Damme. The Belgian actor has been part of the action movie franchise ever since, and it is quite likely you have seen at least one of his films. He was seemingly in an endless amount from the 80's to 90's. He would make a big return with his role in the Expendables franchise a few years back. JVD was known as a legit tough guy most likely due to the fact that, well, he is. He earned his black belt in karate by age 18 and eventually got into bodybuilding to look bigger. Both of these actions caught the eye of studios.
He would eventually get into Taekwondo and Muay-Thai, which he has used in many movies over the years. He also studied kickboxing for many years, which is likely the style he is most recognized for. Interestingly, he also took up ballet for a number of years. The theory for him was that it could teach balance. As funny as that might seem, this only added to his abilities and JVD went on to actually do better in movies as a result of this training. Combined with his real-life fighting prowess, it's hard to ever claim Van Damme isn't a tough guy for real.
18 acts tough - harrison ford
We should amend this a bit and mention Harrison Ford over his entire career was never as tough as he appeared to be on screen. Obviously, older guys we mention on this list would not be as tough as they once were if they ever were at all. In the case of Ford, it was next to never. Ford is most known for his work as the title character in the Indiana Jones movies as well as his role as Han Solo in the original Star Wars franchise. Ford has appeared in several action movies beyond these, but most believe from his work in them that he is somehow this amazing tough guy that could win any fight he came across.
In reality, it is unlikely he ever would. What makes Ford seem imposing is his voice and the way he speaks to people. It's a bit rough, and his size combined with it makes people assume a lot about him. Often a look or voice can do this, especially for someone with the notoriety as Ford. However, his speaking voice and the way he acts is due to something else. He has pretty bad anxiety, so doing talk shows is often not the easiest thing for him as a result. While he does fine with them, he is often not how is on screen because of this area. Though it has helped to keep his image as a tough guy. He just isn't one. Funny enough, he'd be the first to admit it.
17 don't mess with - Michael Jai White
He currently holds a black belt in 7 different martial arts disciplines. This includes the arts of Shotokan, Taekwondo, Kobudō, Tang Soo Do, Gōjū-ryū, and Kyokushin. They all have similarities but are quite different in certain areas. What makes Michael so impressive is that, unlike many other tough guys on this list, he put his abilities to the test. He has multiple championships in martial arts, with both North American and U.S. Open Titles. This is as legit as one could get it appears.
16 acts tough - Liam Neeson
When one hears Liam speak or when you see him, this can be hard to determine. Liam has a booming and slightly scary voice he can put on. He's also quite a large man in height. As funny as it might be though, Liam is actually afraid of heights. Yes, this tall individual is afraid of heights. He's not just a little afraid, but deathly afraid. So much so, he likely could freak out by climbing onto a porch or freak out on the second floor of a building. While it is pretty clear Liam is an impressive actor, this very well could be why no one has noticed the issue of his lack of toughness overall compared to other action stars. He IS an actor after all.
15 don't mess with - James Doohan
James Doohan played Scotty on the original Star Trek series and, of course, movies. He has a legendary voice and role from this world, which we all know and love. He was actually Canadian and not really Scottish, like the character. Doohan was actually a military man before he got into the world of acting. In fact, he fought for the Canadian Armed Forces during World War II. While not a member of the Air Force, he actually did fly planes as an artillery spotter most of the time. He was once dubbed "The Craziest Pilot In The Canadian Air Force" despite not being in it.
This was due to the amazing and somewhat nutty aerial stunts he would pull off. One of these happened with the Taylorcraft Auster Mark IV and it involved somehow getting through a line of telephone poles. Oh yeah, he just did this on a dare too. When it came to real, official action, he did not hold back either. He would serve in the 14th Field Artillery Regiment of the 3rd Canadian Infantry Division. He was even on the ground during the D-Day landing in Normandy. He would take out two Nazi snipers then as his team set up mines to hit the Germans.
Sadly, he got caught up in friendly fire and shot 6 times. He lost his middle finger on his right hand due to all of this. He would have to hide this often on the Star Trek series and managed well with that. No one knew until they met him that he lacked this finger on the right hand. Tough guy? Clearly.
14 acts tough - Roger Moore
Roger Moore is most known in the action genre from his stint as James Bond or 007. The British actor was part of The Man With The Golden Gun and movies in the 007 banner. Both were well-liked as part of the series, and Moore was liked for his portrayal of the British spy. The main reason people liked him was that he looked so comfortable in the part, and he even looked somewhat okay handling a gun too. There is a reason for this, as Moore was actually part of the British Military for a while. So what makes him a fake tough guy?
Moore may have had a stint in the military, but an accident occurred when he was part of it. Sadly, a gun exploded in his hands due to a malfunction which caused him to go deaf for a few days. He never handled a gun afterward and even had a phobia of handling them. It can be noticed in the movies he took part in that Bond would flinch or clench his eyes in every shot that came out. This is why, as Moore's Bond had an issue due to his own personal ones. With that said, Moore never really became a tough guy on screen with movies like this again. It is odd that he would take on a role that required guns, despite his issues with them.
13 don't mess with - gal gadot
Gal Gadot is most known today for his role as Wonder Woman in the DC Movie Universe, and likely even her role as Gisele in the Fast and the Furious franchise. However, before all of this, Gadot grew up in Israel, which has seen a lot of problems. The issues between the sides are various, and it often depends on who one speaks with to know about some. Regardless, everyone is forced to join the Israeli Defense Forces for a short period. According to the nation's laws, all men and women are required to take part in the forces in some capacity as long as they are Jewish, Druze, or Circassian. Only a few exceptions are made.
Gadot is Jewish. Women are forced to be part of the military for two years while men must be enlisted for three. Both can stay past that if they so choose. Usually, people do this between the ages of 18-20. Not all enjoy it or find themselves useful there. Gal Gadot was a major exception. Not only did her military experience teach her how to handle several weapons, but she was also a combat instructor due to her impressive martial arts ability. Israel teaches a martial art called Krav Maga. It is mostly used for defense, but elite users of it know it can be very offensive as well. Gadot likely knows about 4 to 9 ways to break your arm and 12 to break your leg. Don't get us started on what she could do with a knife.
12 acts tough - Steven Seagal
One thing very well known by now is that people lie, and often a lot. Steven Seagal seems to be the type of person who has lied a good bit about his martial arts experience. For those unaware, Seagal has done well with his movies and the martial arts he has shown does appear as if he did study some. However, he claims to have trained with Morihei Ueshiba, the founder of the martial art known as Aikido. He passed in 1969, but his fifth-degree black belt study Terry Dobson claimed that he never heard of Steven Seagal by the time period he claims to have studied with the Martial Arts Master. Steven claimed he studied with him from 1971-1973. But Ueshiba passed in 1969.
Likely the biggest thing to point to his fakeness as a real tough guy would be his run-in with "Judo" Gene LeBell, who is one of the most well-known martial artists in history. The two were working on a movie together. Steven claimed continuously then that it was impossible for him to get choked out. Gene being Gene decided to answer the clear challenge and put Seagal in a rear-naked choke. Steven tried to karate chop out of it according to LeBell but went limp. To be fair to Seagal, he claims this never happened. One has to wonder why Gene would lie, considering his legend is already well known by now. So fake tough guy? Yeah, it seems Steven has always been one.
11 don't mess with - Chuck Norris
Here, he studied Tang Soo Do, a martial art that he would see black belts in. He would also develop his own martial art called Chun Kuk Do here. He would remain an Air Force Policeman when he returned to the U.S. and eventually leave when discharged in 1962. Norris then joined multiple martial arts competitions. He would go on to win the Professional Middleweight Karate Championship and hold it for 6 consecutive years. He would win the Karate triple crown in 1969 and become Fighter of the Year for Black Belt Magazine. He'd eventually meet Bruce Lee and spar with him off and on, which Lee did to learn Norris' style and Norris wanted to do because, well, it was Bruce Lee. Norris remains, in his 70's, one of the toughest men on the planet and remains active in martial arts to this day.
10 acts tough - john wayne
John Wayne is one of the most legendary actors in all of Hollywood. When they were in their Western phase of films, he would be called upon to join in on a bulk of them. It was a common occurrence that people would see Wayne as a legitimate tough guy based on the characters he played in the various movies he worked on. To be honest, it was hard not to in such a time period. Yet he wasn't in the slightest. While we won't speak ill on the passed, John Wayne was always seen as the symbol of masculinity, and often had to hide any sensitive side he possessed. It ate away at him for many years.
The writer of his biography called John Wayne: The Life And Legend, Scott Eyman, Wayne struggled with his image. The tough guy image was such a hard thing to live up to for him for many years. He starred in World War II movie Sands of Iwo Jima, but Wayne never served in the armed forces at any point in his life. Though he won an Academy Award for portraying a United States Marine in this movie, he was consistently feeling guilty over it as he actively attempted to avoid military service himself. While there is nothing wrong with playing a Marine or not wanting to serve, it is the appearance that he did which caused some issues. Wayne held on to his tough guy status and was only a secretly sensitive man as a result.
9 don't mess with - Ed O'Neill
Ed O'Neill is most known for his work in television on shows like Married...with Children and most recently Modern Family. He is a comedic actor who has been around for a long time as one of the favorites among TV viewers. However, Ed is likely someone who could destroy you in a fight. O'Neill has studied Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for over 20 years under Master Rorian Gracie of the infamous Gracie BJJ Family. Ed would finally achieve the level of black belt in 2007, which he claimed was the greatest achievement of his life, after his children of course.
Ed was also a notable football player in high school and earned a scholarship as a result, and almost made it to the pros before failing to do so and joining the acting world. Unlike some with his level of martial arts experience, Ed has not really used it in movies or television all that often. In his 70's, however, it has become a wonderful way to stay active for O'Neill. Still, if anyone ever tried to test him...it's likely he could put them down pretty fast and keep them there. Good luck to all who try.
8 acts tough - Tom Hardy
Tom Hardy has been a pretty popular actor the last few years, mostly due to his impressive roles in the action/suspense world. He can be seen in movies like Inception, Dark Knight Rises, Mad Max: Fury Road, The Revenant, and Warrior in major roles as a top action star. However, despite all of these movie roles where he comes off like a badass...Tom Hardy as a person is by no means as tough as he appears. In fact, Hardy himself admitted to this very thing in Esquire Magazine when he said that he merely tries to "mimic" a tough guy on screen. Unlike other action stars, Hardy has been pretty open about this as well.
He spoke about how he has some pretty major insecurities due to the roles he plays in the various movies he's taken part in. One of the biggest is his fear of going to the gym and working out with bigger and stronger men than himself. He expressed how he can be a bit intimidated by real tough guys, and compensated in his movies by acting like one that he'd come across in life. He made sure to really drive home that he is a tough guy mimic and not a real one, which is actually a refreshing take from someone about themselves. Perhaps it does take some toughness to be open and honest about not actually being as tough as the characters he portrays on screen.
7 don't mess with - Jimmy Stewart
Jimmy Stewart sadly passed away a number of years ago, but he left behind an acting legacy that rivals some of the best in history. Jimmy is currently ranked high in the American Film Institute due to his work in movies. However, Stewart was an amazing veteran of the United States Armed Forces. He was already a major film star before deciding to join the military in 1941. He would fight in World War II and even served in the Vietnam War later on. He was so great at the job that he rose to the rank of USAF Reserve Brigadier General, likely one of biggest honors one could have. In case one might be wondering if Stewart was protected when he entered the military, he wasn't at all.
Though they did attempt to do so. When in the Air Force, he risked his life on multiple occasions as a military pilot and insisted to go on combat missions, despite reluctance from his commanding officers due to his celebrity status. He would even serve as a squad leader and led his unit in the infamous raids over Germany. Jimmy could have easily avoided joining the armed forces and especially the active combat scene of such a brutal period of combat like what we saw in World War II. He insisted, however, and was a hero to the United States as well as one of its most cherished actors.
6 acts tough - hugh jackman
While Jackman is an incredible actor who remains in great shape all the time, this does not equate toughness. He is likely most known for his role as Wolverine in the X-Men series. However, Jackman has been part of various other roles that were not completely action driven. Take Les Miserables and the recent Greatest Showman movies for proof of this. He also starred in other roles that required very little action like The Prestige. However, the role he will never shake is that of Wolverine and the tough guy image that comes along with that.
The issue is that the Australian actor has admitted time and time again that he is nothing like the character. Beyond the mutant abilities at least, Jackman has stated that Logan is someone that he does not come close to. He often refers to what his son says about him in interviews. He claimed that when his son's friends come over and state Hugh's status as Wolverine, he quickly stops them and claims he's nothing like the character. Jackman is a notable softie and has been pretty open about this for years. While there is always some toughness to every man, the appearance of the tough guy image we see from X-Men is a complete act.
5 don't mess with - dwayne "the rock" johnson
Dwayne Johnson is better known to people as The Rock due to his time in WWE years ago. Overall, Johnson spent nearly a decade with WWE as one of their top stars. Anyone who wrestles on the schedule WWE has would ideally need to be seen as tough. Male WWE Superstars are asked to wrestle over 250 days a year. This breaks down to at least 3-5 times per week. Those mats are not soft either, as they hurt a great deal. While it is story-driven, pro-wrestling is no joke. Especially for the top guys who have to be seen more than most. The Rock was among them. Before all of this, however, Rock was known for getting into fights as a teenager and had run-ins with the law. Things settled later for him though.
He would get into sports, notably playing football so well, he earned a scholarship to the University of Miami where he even won a National Championship as part of the team. He could have started, if not for being a DT behind future NFL All-Pro, Warran Sapp. Rock is a notable hard worker and is world-renowned for his work in the gym. While some action stars upon reaching massive popularity are fake tough guys, Johnson is not among those people. He's one of the legit toughest. Though he does have a soft side, he does not mind really throwing down when the time comes. In fact, he's done it before. He's also quite an imposing man, standing a legit 6'5 and weighing in at a little over 250lbs.
4 acts tough - Sylvester Stallone
One of the biggest actors in the history of action movies is Sylvester Stallone. He is most known for his work in the Rambo and Rocky movies where he played the title character in each. It is well-known today that Stallone has been able to get a ton of action stars together for The Expendables franchise as well. It is clear the man is a good business person, and he has remained in great shape for decades to keep delivering in Hollywood. The issue with Stallone is that he is not nearly as tough as the people he portrays on screen. Likely the biggest example of this happened during the auditioning period for Rocky III.
Earnie Shavers was a real boxer who was known for his power punch. Some even called it the strongest in boxing at that time. He was auditioning for a role in the Rocky movie and stepped into the ring with Stallone in the try-out. He took it easy on Stallone so that he would not hurt the guy he's auditioning for, clearly. He took A LOT of his punches. Stallone would tell him to bring it time and time again. To a point where Shavers thought, well, why not? So he hit him one, just one time, in the liver. Stallone went down like a ton of bricks and had to go to the bathroom where he would be for quite some time. There he would give back his lunch, breakfast, and likely what he ate 3 weeks prior. While Shavers was clearly a tough guy who boxed professionally...it's clear a tougher guy could have taken such a punch. At least, more than one.
3 don't mess with - Charlie Hunnam
Charlie Hunnam is most known for his tough guy role on the television series Sons of Anarchy. However, he has also taken part in other action-driven movies like Pacific Rim, Lost City Of Z, and King Arthur: Legend of the Sword. With his action background, one would conclude that he's a real tough guy at the end of the day. Hunnam has been open about some of his martial arts training in the past, but he's still a clear novice to the profession. Guy Richie, a black belt in Jui-Jitsu, taught him a lot when working on King Arthur. He claimed he took it up before working with Guy and even boxing, just in prep for the movie. Likely the biggest thing that might make Charlie a tough guy at his home.
Charlie has been part of a few instances where a robbery was attempted at his home. So yes, this happened more than once. Charlie was stunned when a guy came to his place attempting to break in and a second time when someone was attempting to do so. One would be at 11:00 a.m. and another at 3:00 a.m. according to Hunnam. Each time, he confronted the would-be robbers, carrying a bat or machete. Both times the robbers fled. Since telling this story, it seems that Charlie has yet to be tried by robbers at his home again.
2 acts tough - Arnold Schwarzenegger
Arnold Schwarzenegger made his name in the bodybuilding circuit as a major fixture due to his ability to continue to win. At one point, he won Mr. Olympia 10 times in a row and had the infamous Pumping Iron Documentary done of him due to this. The Austrian thought that making his way into entertainment would be a good plan, and he was right. He would start off small and build to his most notable roles. Before 1990, he had starred in Conan the Barbarian, Conan the Destroyer, The Terminator, Commando, and Predator. By the 90's, he would take part in major movies like Total Recall, Kindergarten Cop, Jingle All The Way, Batman & Robin, and a number of Terminator movies.
He took time out to be the Governor of California but has been in multiple Expendables movies as well as Terminator ones. Though his softie ways have been notable for years. Likely the biggest case of shade thrown at his toughness happened to be by his native Austria. While Arnold actually dubbed his own lines in Spanish for Terminator 2, Austria refused to allow him to dub his lines for them. They told him the reason for this was that he did not sound tough enough to speak in his own language. The reason? They said his voice did not match the character he was playing, so they'd have a German actor dub his lines instead. Seriously.
1 don't mess with - Jackie Chan
Jackie Chan and his toughness have been known for decades in Hollywood. Chan actually worked alongside Bruce Lee and even fought him on screen as a stuntman years ago in a few movies. Jackie is most known for his action movie work in movie franchises like Rush Hour and Shanghai. However, he has also been in movies like The Spy Next Door and the beloved new movie The Foreigner. The one thing that makes Jackie stand out over many of his action star brethren is that he does not normally use a stuntman. All the action you see from him comes from him, which is he quite proud of.
This creates some hilarious moments in the blooper reel for many of his movies. However, Jackie was taught how to fall and his work as a stuntman years ago allowed him to stay safe. He once fell from a tree and broke his ribs during a movie and even had a hole in his head. Jackie is known for his insane stunts in movies, but he's also a skilled fighter. While he invented the comedic kung-fu genre, he actually has a black belt under Grandmaster Jin Pal Kim. And he has trained or studied Shaolin Kung-Fu, Tae Kwon Do, Hapkido, and Boxing.

Lloyds Banking Group sales director of mortgages Mike Jones has dismissed his predecessor's claim that the bank's share of lending through intermediaries will fall to 50 per cent.
In September, former sales director of mortgages Nigel Stockton told Money Marketing that the intermediary share of Lloyds' lending was likely to fall from a level estimated to be 70 per cent to 50 per cent.
But Jones says the share of lending the bank writes through intermediaries is 60 per cent and he expects that will fall by no more than a few percentage points. He says: "I do not see the bank's share of lending going to 50-50. I expect it to be a little less than 60 per cent but we have no ambition to get to any particular number."
He says there are people who are comfortable buying a mortgage without advice but there are a lot of people who still feel more confident going through a broker.
Jones says: "Some people want to look someone in the eye. I think there is a future for both brokers and branches."
Chadney Bulgin mortgage partner Jonathan Clark says: "It is encouraging that he recognises the importance of brokers."

Skunks Fell Down Window Well/basement
Bats can be a big menace to any household, both physically and emotionally. These creatures normally inhabit dark and warm places in the house. You are likely to find them in the basement, walls, soffits and the attic of your house. These low flying creatures can inhabit your home if there are any entry points to let them in. If you have been having problems getting rid of these creatures here are some tips to help you remove them from your house completely.

Although the companies that offer these services are countless, not all of them offer the quality of services that you would want. The best bat removal services come normally with a guarantee. Unless the company promises 100% removal of these creatures from your house, there is absolutely no need for you to pay for the services. The services should include an inspection of your house. The inspection will enable the service provider to identify areas of use by the bats and potential areas they could re-enter. Thus in turn the wildlife control professional will provide a course of action to resolve the problem for you and your home.

Encouraging wildlife into your garden
It's lovely when you see a hedgehog crawl out from beneath a pile of logs, or a bat emerge from your self built bat house just after dark.
By encouraging wildlife into your garden it not creates a feeling of happiness but also continues to provide important habitats for animals. Below are some tips and ideas to keep up the wild side of your garden.
Planting trees is the most apparent means of creating habitats for mammals and birds; by planting native tree species this will provide food all year round for insects and birds. The tree will offer shelter depending on its size all types of creatures will benefit, and quite often create their home beneath or within the tree.
Bird tables become very popular to birds during winter when they find it harder to find local foods, place sunflower seeds, unsalted peanuts, or chopped fruit onto a feeding station in your garden, it may take a few days for the birds to take to the food, but when they know its there the feed will be eagerly taken.
If you have the space then try and leave a section of your garden over grown and undisturbed, place a few logs in there, and leave them to rot, hedgehogs are likely to see this kind of environment as a perfect home for hibernation.

Common Myths About Nuisance Bats
How to Clean Your Attic After You've Had Bats?
Bats are fascinating mammals with incredible appetites and impressive flying skills. Bats are admirable, to say the least, but real estate and homeowners do not want these critters dwelling inside their properties. Bats will find access points into residential and commercial buildings where they feed, breed, and nest their young. They typically settle in dark and isolated areas, such as attics, sheds, and crawl spaces. When this situation is discovered, the only solution is bat removal and bat control. Continue reading to learn why bat removal and exclusion are so crucial, and how to contact your local bat control specialist for help.
Removing Bats
There are many signs that point towards a bat infestation. If you hear squeaking and scratching noises in the night, coming from within your home, then this could mean you have bats somewhere on your property. The most common way bat colonies are discovered in residential homes is simply by spotting them. Bats are nocturnal and come out at night to feed on insects. They are hard to miss when flying from their roosts.
Once bats are removed from a property, bat prevention and control should be implemented. This involves cleaning up the area that was contaminated and soiled, then repairing any structural damages caused by the bats. Once the mess is cleaned and sanitized, and the repairs are complete, preventative maintenance is the final step.
Once you get rid of bats in your property, have your professional bat exclusion experts conduct a home inspection to determine what areas are vulnerable and weak. They should offer interior and exterior property inspections that allow them to determine where animals are entering the premises and what spots may be potential access points in the future. This inspection will let the specialist know where to patch up access points and how to prevent bats and other animals from coming back. Bat-proofing is the most important part of the process because it eliminates the problem altogether.

With its mix of cultures and creators, L.A. has inspired an endless stream of movies, music, and fine art devoted to its appeal, so it makes sense that its designers look close to home when crafting their collections. For Pre-Fall Trina Turk tapped into the energy of "Pacific Standard Time: LA/LA," an expansive collaborative exhibition led by the Getty that focuses on the Latino contribution to Los Angeles's distinctive architecture and contemporary art scene.

Last Sunday, our student ministries pastor asked us to do something very different. At least different for me. In our communal prayer time we asked God to help our church live out the love chapter, I Corinthians 13.
You know the one: love is patient, kind. That one you often hear at wedding ceremonies.
Quite frankly, I've always viewed the LOVE Chapter with a more personal than corporate perspective. I could be more patient, more kind, more this, more that! But practice these admonitions as a church? Sounds a little over the top. But why was I surprised?
After all . . .
Paul, called to be an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and our brother Sosthenes, 2 To the church of God in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus and called to be his holy people, together with all those everywhere who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ—their Lord and ours: 3 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Rather than pray "Lord help me to be patient, help me to be kind," we were guided to pray for our church of God in Ashland.
Pastor Cory poked at us pretty hard. "What does 1 Corinthians 13 mean to Park Street Brethren Church?" He challenged us to think beyond ourselves as individuals. Cory explained that we would be praying through the love chapter as a church body. We bowed our heads and let Cory lead. "Love is patient," he said. I prayed for our church members to be patient with each other. Cory continued, "Ask the Lord to show you specifically how Park Street needs patience." I immediately thought about the diversity of gifts amongst the congregation and how we need to nurture each other in their unique areas. Often that requires patience!
"Love is kind," quoted Cory. And so the process continued. Prayer time was a unifying experience. I sensed a seriousness about us, a desire to consider the very character of our church community.
And I felt most rattled when Cory punctuated our experience with this declaration: "The way we behave as a community makes a difference in the world."
Hearts were humbled.
Because behavior is a reflection of how we embrace the character of Christ.
And the greatest of these is love.
(Italicized scripture is from 1 Corinthians 13:1-3)

Abounded by lush, carbon-offsetting forests, scenic riverside, majestic mountains, thrilling wildlife, charming tribal life, and wonderful organic food, Orange County Kabini is tailor-made for nature lovers, adventurers, romantic couples, and indubitably not worth a miss for food lovers.
It's less about the destination and more about the journey in itself that fascinates the ardent traveler in me. Hence, a property must have something really unique to offer so as to warrant any adoration from me. No wonder not every nature resort is so placating and cheering as Orange County Kabini – a luxurious 5 star nature resort located at Bheeramballi Village, Mysore District.
The ultimate nature retreat
Orange County Kabini is an unspoiled nature haven with the entire place encapsulated with a cover of green, studded with white sandy shores, serene water and one of the finest hotel services you will ever find.
The green setting, the imperious backdrop, trips into the mountain valleys and canoeing make it an awesome weekend trip. From the pleasing early morning boat safaris and cycling trips around the river shore and countryside to driving into the tiger heartland of Nagarhole National Park, delightful night trails that introduce you to the wonderful little butterflies, moths, reptiles, frogs and other little creatures abounding the resort, the heartwarming bird watching and the exciting coracle and bullock cart ride, this place has countless ways of making you one with nature. And if luck be by your side, you might catch a glimpse of a tiger, wild elephants, leopards and a variety of other interesting animals and charming birds. With ecology at heart afore economy this trip does teach you how to co-exist with nature.
Living @Orange County, Kabini
The resort is beautifully snuggled in the labyrinth of peace, tranquility and warmth all around. Inspired in design by the Hadis or tribal nearby villages, it's enticing to see how every speck and corner of this nature retreat is submerged in the hues and tones of nature. Pleasantly enough, you won't find plastic anywhere in this nature refuge! Right from the welcome area, stretching to the dining hall, ayurvedic village, the organic shop, and the vivid infinity pool, the resort is as organic and as picturesque as you'd ever have craved for. It's a must to watch the glorious sunsets viewed from the Reading Lounge while sipping the refreshingly frothy cappuccino served there. And enliven your spirits with the deluxe spa treatments at the Ayurvedic centre.
At Kabini, they do manage to bring nature into your room. The thematically carved Jacuzzi huts render a rustic feel with a regal touch. Their organic interiors, ethnic yet snug beds, sofas and chests, spacious and suitably furnished bathrooms, plush living rooms and soothing bedrooms enable these huts to bestow a royal experience to its guests. The open-to-air jacuzzi pool is a major highlight of the huts. There are also Pool Huts for those who covet a personal swimming arena.
The most cheering aspect of this resort is the overwhelming hospitality of the staff here. The ever-smiling staff members (all of whom would know your name and room number) would greet you as you walk around, and would be keen to strike a conversation with you and listen to your great safari sagas. Wonderful staff must say. Ankita, Arjun, Girish, Shruthi, Anand, and everyone else – a warm hug to all of you!
Culinary ecstasy
This cozy stay in the lap of nature is perfected by its great wines and wonderful gourmet offerings – full of local flavors as well as exotic delicacies. The best part of the food here is that it's loaded with moist juices and authentic savors. Surprisingly, even a glass of sweet lime or pineapple hasn't tasted so succulent as it would at the resort.
Wonderfully managed by Chef Sanjay, Kabini meals are a grand fanfare of culinary delights. You name it, they serve it! Apple broccoli soup, corn jalapeno soup, pasta carbonara, sage roast chicken and grilled cottage cheese with bbq sauce, and gratifying sizzlers do offer quite a contrast to the organic offerings of the land – koli saru, handi mamsa hurididuin (non-veg) and kalu kurma, majjige saru (veg), to name a few. Haagalakai, the Indian bitter gourd is simmered with coconut, tamarind and spices, and spiked with jaggery and hing, curry leaves and mustard is a must-try.
Also, there's much to offer to the connoisseurs of North Indian or South Indian food too. In short, the place has something to suit every taste.
The bewitching restaurant settings make the culinary experience even more delightful here. It's a treat to watch the sunset over the Kabini river while you enjoy a glass of wine at Honey Comb. Overlooking the river is the Kuruba Grill specialty restaurant that displays a whole array of luscious barbeques and grills. With candle lights, intimate settings, personalized service, lavish five-course menus with live cooking, you couldn't possibly ask for a more amorous evening to celebrate love with your partner. From intimate riverside dining to an enchanting boat dining experience, Kabini Orange County only turns your romantic merriment more flavorsome.
Here's your chance to get in touch with a side of nature that is both different and awe-inspiring. Experience nature at its pristine best and enjoy a holiday laced with green goodness at Orange County Kabini.

We got up at the crack of yesterday (aka 5:00 a.m.!) and were out the door within an hour. Temp when we left was 37 degrees, and as we drove, it kept getting WARMER. This wasn't boding well... We continued on our way over Grafton and Dixville Notches. Finally, as we crested Dixville Notch and headed down towards The Balsams, it started to snow. Yippee!
The weather changed again heading into Colebrook, where there was no snow. In fact, there was no snow all the way through downtown Pittsburgh. As we went further north, and started climbing though, we started to see the white gold everywhere. Of course, we WERE almost in Canada ;-). We pulled into the parking lot and were unloaded and ready to ride just after 8:00.
The trails were a little thin in places (ok, in some places you could hear your skis hitting rocks), but some of the trails were in excellent shape, with about 6 inches or more of snow cover. We could tell by seeing how far down the moose tracks went ;-). We saw lots of tracks today, but no moose. Only one wildlife encounter.
The jays up there have no fear, and will land right on you looking for food. This one wasn't happy when it landed on Mike to find there was no food, and we felt a little bit guilty. Next time, I will pack a ziploc of bird seed in the bag.
We saw a number of riders, including five game wardens - they were out ensuring we all adhered to the 45 mph speed limit, and that we had registrations. We saw them writing tickets to at least one group of sledders.
After about 87 miles, we headed back to the parking lot to call it a day. Apparently a lot of people were looking to ride, 'cause not only were the lots full, but people were parked up and down the road as well! It was amazing to see trucks and trailers everywhere.
And, while we were out, the temps dropped from 32 to 23, and there had been rain, making the roads a literal skating rink. The drive back down into Pittsburg for lunch was treacherous and a little nerve wracking.
Ok, so we DROVE 200 miles to ride 87, but for the first ride on my brand new sled (which, I'll have you know, is one of the cleanest and most fuel-efficient available), I would do it again in a heartbeat. Let's hope that Mother Nature starts dumping some more snow SOON!

According to the Japanese site Macotakara, Apple is all set for the iPhone 4 obsolete with few other devices. Read on to know more!
Apple iPhone 4 Obsolete
With the Technology moving with a speed of light, the companies also need to Let go few of their products and jump into the next step. It seems Apple is following the statement. According to the Japanese site Macotakara, the company is all set for the iPhone 4 obsolete. Apple iPhone 4 was launched in June 2010. Though the team had stopped the production of iPhone 4, three years later. Yet, iPhone 4 was a very popular phone of that time.
The iPhone 4 is about to fall into obsolescence, along with some other Apple productshttps://t.co/t3oLxunCkZ pic.twitter.com/mdSSOqm45s
— MacLife (@MacLife) October 15, 2016
There are few products as well from the vintage list that'll be obsolete. The 2010 13 inch MacBook Air along with AirMac and the second-generation Time Capsule are also under the antiquated list.
So why does this matter to the customers? The customers having the iPhone 4 or the other vintage devices will now not be able to get their device repaired. The company is stopping all hardware productions as well as the repair services for these devices. The customers need not shed tears for the Apple iPhone 4 obsolete. It has already lived its life with popularity and it obviously cannot stand with the companies new era iPhone models iPhone 7 and 7 Plus. The iPhone 4 and the 13-inch 2010 MackBook Air customers need to think upon upgrading their devices. They can obviously use their product until it gets totally worn out! Because there's clearly no scope of repairment and replacement by the company.
There is always a loop-hole, but this time, it is only for the vintage model's customers staying in California and Turkey. The states have to server their customers for a minimum period of 7 years. This news might give a sigh of relief to the customers staying in California and Turkey. They have a couple of years left with them, to completely utilize the device!
The news has not been officially announced by Apple, yet Japanese site Macotakara being a trusted source, the customers can start thinking about the upgradation! We'll keep updating you with the Apple iPhone 4 obsolete news, till then keep sharing your comments!

1. Re: Is there a way to automate the packager function?Patrick.Cashman Feb 7, 2017 2:51 PM (in response to email@example.com)
I have not encountered such a function, and a search of the help files revealed nothing new.
Also, if there were such a function, it would have much the same interface as the existing packager tool does now, with the different options available.
You seem to be trying to get something out of the PartPkg.log file. What are you trying to get? There may be another way.
2. Re: Is there a way to automate the packager firstname.lastname@example.com Feb 15, 2017 12:44 PM (in response to Patrick.Cashman)
Thank you for the response. The packager tool was what I was trying to automate instead of the user having to click on tools-->Packager have a script to automate that. I was able to do this using the Package command.
I was trying to create a script to automatically update the PartPkg.log so that it remains updated and not to go off of any prior logs that may have been collected when the tool was run previously.

Omega 3 for Dogs is Important, Too!
Until recently, no one talked about omega 3 for dogs. We barely knew people needed the stuff, much less animals. But it turns out that domesticated animals, especially dogs, are just as omega 3 deficient as their human counterparts. It makes sense if you think about it. People are not getting the omega 3 we should because our diets have changed. The same is true of dogs. Prepackaged dog food is not going to have the same omega 3 content as birds and other small animals a dog eats in the wild. And like people food, modern dog food is heavily processed and contains a very heavy balance of omega 6 oils. Find out why you should give your dog fish oil: Omega 3 for Dogs is Important, Too!

We're more than halfway through 2017 and the reign of anal-interest hasn't let up. The popularity of butts doesn't seem to be going away, nor should it. Not only does that mean sexual navigators shouldn't hesitate to explore the anus; straight men specifically shouldn't hesitate to pleasure their prostate.
Amidst a sexual age in which the idea of pure procreation has largely desisted, the focus on pleasure has accelerated astronomically.
So are straight men still afraid of pegging?
For the most part, they aren't shying away from anal sex. A study conducted by the United States Center for Disease Control from 2006-2008 showed that 44 percent of men between the ages of 15 to 44 have engaged in anal sex with an opposite-sex partner at least once.
So if men aren't afraid of putting their penis in a woman's anus, what's stopping them from having the pleasure reciprocated?
While anal penetration might sound off-putting to men, anal pleasure shouldn't be just for women and gay men.
In recent years, pegging, the act of a female penetrating their male partner with a strap-on dildo, has been thrown into the mainstream.
Coined in 2001 by sex columnist Dan Savage, pegging's popularity has been on the rise.
In the Comedy Central show "Broad City," one of the main characters Abbi is handed a strap-on when she suggests to her partner that they switch things up. Hesitant at first, Abbi calls her best friend Ilana for advice. After a brief pep talk, Abbi decides to go for it, much to the delight of her partner.
Scenes like this are key for normalizing the act and lowering judgement. No sex should be taboo.
Although women may not receive physical pleasure from the act, their pleasure comes from giving it to their partner. Some women are attracted to it because it's a role reversal. Men get to experience the sensation of being penetrated while women finally feel the power of being the penetrator.
But when it comes down to it, some men simply don't have the desire and no one should ever be pressured or coerced into sex.
To those who are interested, don't feel judged. Straight men engaging in prostate pleasure is nothing new.
As long as it's consensual and legal, nothing about sex should make someone feel ashamed.
So the next time she asks you to bend over, don't be afraid to open up.

Freshly folded! Here are two kusudamas that I was planing to do ever since I saw the diagram. Once again go check Mio's site, The Kusudama, and thank her for sharing with us! These are kusudamas to be made with rectangular paper.
The red one was made with red origami paper (3 tonalities) and chiyogami paper with sakura (cherry blossom). Paper size: 5.5×7.5; kusudama's diameter: 10 cm.
The blue one was made with marbled blue paper of 5×10 (if not mistaken, I can't remember that well the paper size for this one). The diameter of this one is 18 cm.
Aren't they pretty? The red is my new favourite kusudama :)
