Summerhill Stud, South Africa
11 October 2013
Most of our readers know Annet as one of the game's most astute professionals. After graduating from Onderstepoort, she did her time in charge of the high care unit at one of the world's great farms, Juddmonte, then joined Team Summerhill seven years ago where, among other things, the Broodmare and Foalcare divisions fall under her. She is among the School of Management Excellence's most respected lecturers as well, and she knows what a good racehorse looks like, so we should all be listening. These are her selections for this year's Ready To Run Sale:
Lot 213: Flying Cross (Brave Tin Soldier x Mumtazah) Bay Filly
Lot 213: Flying Cross (Brave Tin Soldier x Mumtazah)
Another from Brave Tin Soldier's first crop that's raising eyebrows on the gallops; in her case, it's hardly surprising. Her mother is a daughter of the world's greatest stallion, Galileo, out of a Stakes-winning daughter of Elusive Quality. Coupled with the regal origins of history's most expensive foal, Brave Tin Soldier, who took his Stakes-winning juvenile class to a record-breaking performance at a mile as an older horse, you'd expect she'd be good, and there'll be more than a few in our team who'll tell you she is.
Lot 161: Petrichor (AP Arrow x Guest Gallery) Chestnut Colt
Lot 161: Petrichor (AP Arrow x Guest Gallery)
The A.P. Arrows have an elegant, classic look to them, and here's one who combines both those elements with a great attitude to his work, and a long flowing action. It's hard to differentiate between the A.P. Arrows this year: there are any number that make getting out of bed in the mornings worthwhile, and he's one of the picks.

It's been more than a month since Google announced that it was going to stop selling its wearable headset Google Glass.
We spoke to source close to the situation about what it was like watching the product go from beta to off the table — Here's their timeline of Glass's rise and fall:
- In spring 2013, the first Google Glass "Explorers" started receiving their $1,500 devices. They could pick-up a pair at one of Google's designated Glass "Basecamps," located in San Francisco, New York City, Los Angeles, and London. Visiting Basecamp was a swanky affair — Explorers were served drinks and treated like royalty while Google employees gave them a primer on how to use the expensive new products.
- Because of the secretive nature of Glass, many of the first employees responsible for working at those Basecamps were hired without knowing what they would be doing. During interviews, they had to practice pitching a random Google product. It wasn't until the second day of training after being hired that they knew what they would actually be working with Glass.
- There was so much early buzz around Glass that the job was incredibly exciting. Basecamp employees gave dozens of demos per week and would get to give special demos in cities like Detroit, Austin, and Washington DC.
- It was clear that there were a lot of kinks in the product, but people were generally still very enthusiastic. At first.
- The "This is gonna be huge!" mentality started fading pretty quickly. As Nick Bilton recently reported for The New York Times, Glass was still an early prototype and the engineers working on it knew it " wasn't even close to ready for prime time." Tech reviewers described it as " the worst product of all time" and Explorers gave Basecamp employees tons of feedback on things that needed fixing.
- Customer complaints were generally taken into consideration as rapidly as possible, our source says. "The product changed so much from when I first started working on the project until I left." But interest in the device started to wane all the same — the bugs, impracticality, and privacy concerns made Glass underwhelming (and easy to mock).
- "I think it was the wrong way to put out a product," our source says. "We were having people pay $1,500 to tell us how to fix this thing."
- It was clear that Glass wasn't yet going to meet all the pre-launch hype. "We kept missing the benchmarks that we had set," our source says. "All the grand plans that we had at the beginning just didn't materialize."
- At the fancy showroom, the number of appointments started to wind down, from peaks of 60 per day to far less. Basecamp employees started getting cut. Our source started with about 80 other employees, but people kept getting let go in waves as demand decreased and people could choose to get it shipped to their homes instead of having to come to one of the basecamps. Morale of employees started dropping as the buzz around Glass wore off.
- In January 2015, Google announced that it was ending its Explorer program and would no longer sell its initial version of Glass. The product was broken out of Google X and Nest CEO and former Apple-guru Tony Fadell was put in charge.
- "I think a lot of people saw it coming," our source says. "People just weren't ready to wear this thing on their face. It didn't normalize the way they anticipated."

We had a wonderful day at the the Werribee Treatment Plant…a bird paradise.
Early highlights were a flock of appealing Zebra Finches, and then a panorama of shining Canola highlighting the distant You Yangs.
Field of canola
Next were rows of mud-bottle nests under the eaves of one of the very few buildings. Their owners, Fairy Martins, were sweeping around the building, and nearby on a channel edge were two Black Fronted Dotterels.
Fairy Martin nests
In the paddocks nearby were a number of Cattle Egrets following a herd of steer.

Watching the Cattle Egrets
Flocks of elegant Avocets, with their rusty heads and unmistakable long upturned bills were our favourite sighting at morning tea.
Three Avocets
On reaching the furthest point in the road system we had hoped to see Orange-bellied Parrots(OBPs), as cage-bred young have been released there, and a departing bird watcher had seen one. Our hopes were dashed, as usual, but it was a great location for numerous other species including soaring flocks of migratory waders.
Lunch, but where are the OBPs?
We also were impressed to see, highlighted in the sunlight, the red knees of several Red-kneed Dotterels.
Red-kneed Dotterel
There was also a flock of Banded Stilts with some more Avocets.
Banded Stilts
On the way we saw hundreds of Starlings perched on some posts, and on the return trip they had been replaced by one Pelican.
Our most unusual sight for the day was a lone Black-tailed Godwit with its amazing long beak. My only other sighting of this species was this year in May, in Amsterdam!
The only bird hide
We saw a number of Raptors but only a Black Shouldered Kite posed for a photograph.

On our way back we stopped to admire a Black swan on a nest, and were delighted to see a pair of Brolgas near the shore behind the nest.
Swan and Brolgas
A couple of our party took a different, and longer route back and added six species to our total of 69…a record for us.

Freesia refracta and Freesia alba X F. leichtlinii are declared weeds in the Surf Coast Shire because they spread easily and threaten to invade bushland. Freesias are perennial herbs that die back in summer and produce new foliage in winter. The highly fragrant trumpet-shaped flowers appearing in spring are white to cream and pink with yellow markings, shaded purple on outer surface. Each plant has at least two corms, one below the other, thus requiring deep digging to remove them.
More details about how to control this weed can be found in the archive of Weeds of the Month.

Former coach, pastor sentenced
OLYMPIA - A former youth football coach and youth pastor will spend 12 1/2 years in prison for molesting three boys - two of them former players on the football team he coached in 2009 and a 13-year-old he ministered to at church in 2002.
"It was an abuse of trust, where these young boys trusted their coach and youth pastor," Thurston County Special Trials Division Chief Christy Peters said in court Thursday before Derwin Pasley's sentencing.
Pasley pleaded guilty last month to two counts of second-degree child molestation and one count of third-degree child molestation.
Pasley, 33, did not address the court or apologize to the victims' families as Thurston County Superior Court Judge Paula Casey handed down a 150-month sentence, which is beyond the standard range.
Casey noted that throughout Pasley's life, he has been active volunteering to help young people. Those noble pursuits are tainted, Casey told Pasley, because "there must have been an ulterior motive for all of your work."
Pasley was arrested and charged with child molestation in October 2009, after a 14-year-old boy he coached in the Black Hills Junior Football League told Olympia police that Pasley had molested him. The league has no affiliation with Black Hills High School. The boy told police that Pasley molested him in Pasley's car after he drove him home from a game.
After the boy's allegations came to light, a 13-year-old boy on the team Pasley coached came forward with details of being molested by Pasley.
The third boy was 13 when Pasley molested him in 2002. At that time, Pasley was the boy's youth pastor at Risen Faith Fellowship in Olympia, Peters has said. The molestation was reported to police at the time, but there was not sufficient evidence to go forward with criminal charges, Peters has said.
Pasley's 2002 case was reopened after the 2009 allegations against Pasley came to light, according to Peters.
During Thursday's court hearing, the mother of the victim who met Pasley at Risen Faith Fellowship spoke about how no one at the church believed her son.
"The church should protect children," the mother said, crying. "It should be a safe place." The trauma negatively affected the boy's grades and emotional well-being, she said.
Peters said the boy molested in 2002 is now 21, attending college in Oregon.
In 2002, the church hindered the Olympia Police Department's investigation, Peters said.
"The church did an initial investigation on their own that very much impeded the Olympia Police Department's investigation," she said.
The mothers of the boys Pasley coached in the Black Hills Junior Football League also spoke in court Thursday. One spoke about how her son's coming forward caused him problems with his teammates.
She said that when her son became depressed and sullen during the season, she turned to Pasley, having no idea that his abuse of her son was the cause of his withdrawal from life.
"My son had no will left to live, and everything was overwhelming," she said.
Initially after Pasley's arrest, Charles Farrar, then the president of the football league, reserved judgment about whether the allegations were true. He said at the time that Pasley had passed a Washington State Patrol background check when he was hired, then passed criminal background checks every couple of years.
In 1994, Pasley was arrested in Florida on suspicion of a felony sex offense against a child in Dade County, court papers state. Pasley was acquitted of two counts of sexual battery of a minor there, according to Olympia police.
Washington bars unfounded child-abuse allegations from third-party disclosure, so Pasley's acquittal wouldn't have shown up on a criminal background check, according to an official with the Washington State Patrol.
The mother of the first victim to come forward also addressed the court. She told Pasley: "I pray that you receive the help that is needed in your life. I pray to God that you will not re-offend when you get out." She called Pasley "a liar and a predator that preys upon young children."
After the mothers addressed the court, Judge Casey noted "the havoc that is wreaked upon lives permanently because of this behavior."

In this post on bettersystemtrader.com, Andrew Swanscott interviews Kevin Davey from KJ Trading Systems who discusses why looking at your back-test historical equity curve alone might not give you a true sense of a strategy's risk profile. Kevin Davey also writes on the topic here for futuresmag.com. So i wrote a Monte Carlo-type simulation function (in R) to see graphically how my back-test results would have looked had the order of returns been randomized. I use 'n' to denote the number of simulations i would like to do, and exclude the highest and lowest 5% of return streams to form the blue ribbon. For the middle red ribbon i use the middle 50% of return streams (ie. excluding the 1st and last quartile). The second and last parameter (default TRUE) is a boolean which if TRUE will run the sampling procedure in R with replacement, and without replacement if set to FALSE. See this link if you need an intuitive explanation of what sampling with and without replacement means. Below is an example of the output for 10k simulations, with and without replacement for a random set of returns on a hypothetical strategy spanning 7 months. The black line is the actual historical equity curve. Whether or not the return distributions satisfy your risk appetite will come down to a more refined drawdown analysis together with the host of other risk metrics available for consideration. At least with the function below you have the stats in a dataframe and a graph to start…the starting point for any statistical analysis.
I read the data into R using the read.csv function. You can use the same data here (simSample.xlsx), just be sure to change the file type to CSV first, as WordPress only allows for storing .xls and .xlsx Excel files. Below is the source code to add the function to your environment. I add the required packages then create the mcsimr() function to do the import, manipulate the data and build the graph using ggplot. Remember to set your working directory as the directory in which you have stored the simSample.csv file.
If you would like to run the simulation 1,000 times without replacement, then the function should read:
mcsimr(1000, FALSE)
If you would like to run with replacement, include TRUE for the second argument or leave it blank, as the default is TRUE.
Ok, below is the full source code
I am aiming to have the function code on github soon [EDIT: The above is hosted (with love) by GitHub, however enhancements are still a work in progress], hopefully with some enhancements allowing the user to specify an xts object for the raw data (ie. backtest results) as well as letting the user decide which percentages to use for the bands. Some drawdown stats would be useful too. I have built something which incorporates a drawdown analysis of every 'n' return stream, however, it needs some more work to speed it up as you can imagine 10k xts objects with 500+ of daily return data could take some time to analyse individually.
Lastly, i wonder if something like this could fit into the QuantStrat or TradeAnalytics packages…or if there already is something similar do let me know. [EDIT: Since publishing this post Brian Peterson (maintainer of multiple Finance R packages like ReturnAnalytics, quantmod and Quanstrat) got in touch and asked if i would work with him in getting this function into the blotter package, a dependency of Quantstrat. Brian has also suggested a few improvements to the function including using Block Bootstrap to account for autocorrelation and plot.xts as opposed to ggplot for faster graphical rendering. So look out for an updated post on that.]
Happy hacking!

3 More Sleeps!
December 22, 2017
With just 3 more sleeps before Christmas, I wanted to update you on the current Snow and Ice response.
Roads Snow and Ice Control (SNIC) operations update for December 22:
Roads crews have restarted P1 routes with snow event #9 starting on Dec 21 at 14:00h. The new snowfall overnight was between 1-2 cm.
Our priority system consists of Priority 1 - 4. The current status is:
- P1 - 60% complete
- P2 - 5% complete
- Cycle Track - 10% complete
- Bike Lanes - 0% complete
- P3 and P4 - 0% complete
We recognize the amount of snow is significant and a parking ban may be of some benefit. The decision to not invoke a parking ban was made for the following reasons:
1/ Type of snow:
This type of snow has a dryer less cohesive, i.e. powdery type composition and is more easily managed and less intrusive for parking areas than heavy wet snow.
2/ Time of year:
This time of year, many vehicles are left on-street by people who have left Calgary and although they are responsible for the vehicle there is a lower ability for them to manage their vehicle during this time of year coupled with an influx of visitors creating a greater demand for on-street parking. If a ban were called it would be in effect starting December 21 for up to 72 hours, ending on Dec 24th.
3/ Favourable forecast:
Favourable snowfall forecast, so minimal new accumulation that would further affect parking along snow route parking ban corridors.
4/ Field assessment:
We assessed the access and egress in several neighbourhoods along snow route parking ban routes and saw vehicles navigating relatively easily. Only trouble was at 26 bus locations and those are already being addressed and bus zones are already parking restricted.
For these reasons, we decided not to invoke a parking ban. Our focus will be on intersection clean-up and other priority routes. We understand there may be some minor impacts associated without calling a parking ban as windrows adjacent to parked vehicles reduce convenient access but felt on balance this was the best decision for the community at this time of year.
Click to see completed routes and current progress on: https://maps.calgary.ca/RoadConditions/?redirect=/roadconditions
The cost so far to respond to snow event #8 is $665k including $69K of contractor costs.
Material usage during snow event #8: 2289 tonnes of salt, 1544 tonnes of pickle mix and 19,756 litres of liquid products (salt brine, calcium chloride brine and a carbohydrate based brine).
Total 3-1-1 SR's (Service Requests) is 396 SR's.

This garden was a complete blank canvass. When former garden designer Rosemary Rogers moved into the property, she quickly developed the design and set us to work. We replaced the existing concrete patio with timeless Raj Indian sandstone and extended it to a very useable 40m².
The garden was relatively flat with a slight side to side slope which we used to our advantage to create the raised 8x8m "bowling green" lawn. A raised bed vegetable plot was also created at the bottom of the garden.

1/2 cup sliced green onion
Curry Chutney Dressing (listed below)
1/3 cup roasted, salted, chopped pistachios
1/4 cup chopped mint (optional, I rarely use it)

With insurance exchanges coming online over the next few months, providers have new contracting opportunities to serve newly insured patients. Some providers may see this change as an opportunity to foray into managed care, while others already have contracts in place and are considering how exchanges will impact their existing deals.
Before venturing into exchange patient care, providers need to do their homework. First, they need to find out which payers will be serving exchange patients. Specific obligations of providers imposed by the payers and/or exchanges need to be known. Compensation formulas and payment terms need to be negotiated. Also, existing managed care contracts may have hidden terms that apply to exchange patient care.
In this informative medical compliance session, our expert Wayne J. Miller, Esq. will outline considerations for accepting care of newly insured patients. Basically, he'll outline the steps to be completed prior to accepting contracts for exchange patient care. Wayne will also specify compensation and other terms in existing contracts and in new proposals that will be critical for successful contracting in this new era of exchanges.
Discussion areas with examples:
Who Should Attend? Hospitals, physicians, practice managers, medical groups, health care consultants and medical practice and facility executives.

Today Minding Animals Norway held its annual General Meeting. Six people were present, five of whom current board members. No financial report or budget was prepared for the meeting. An annual report and an action plan was decided on, however. Election of board members was discussed for an hour or two before it was decided that an extraordinary General Meeting will be held on February 1st to elect a new board. This was because two people wants to quit the board and two more were ambivalent with regard to continuing.

Did you ever imagine that somebody else would be dumb enough to come up with the idea of "fractionation"? Yeah, me neither, but apparently somebody did. Derek Rake!
This is the Shogun Method:
Derek Rake was an average loser until he went into "THE DARKNET" and found a secret community of mind control wizards that taught him the dark arts and now he's a superstud. he's not like those other pick up artists you see; his shit WORKS.
Derek Rake says that seduction is about how you make the woman feel, nothing about your finances or looks…and in turn you are supposed to "anchor" her to you. It made sense for a while but then it got really stupid. Then again, I could say that for any of these PUAs, couldn't I?
"Women want to be swept off their feet, and they want sex as much as men do." Very True. Derek goes on to say SOCIETY SAYS THEY SHOULDN'T SO THEY DON'T ACT LIKE THEY DO. Yes, because 2008 was such a reactionary, patriarchal time.
"So now that you know these inhibitions women have from society, you must overcome them with three steps." It's covert selling in other words. And if "convincing her you're what she wants" sounds a lot like lying…well obviously you're just an average frustrated chump!

Even if it rains on Thursday, drought won't end in Merced area
Rain is in the forecast this week for Merced County and much of the San Joaquin Valley, but whatever falls won't come close to ending drought conditions, experts said.
The National Weather Service in Hanford is predicting a 30 percent chance of rain Wednesday night , increasing to 50 percent on Thursday, meteorologist Cindy Bean said. Overall, the storm system could bring between one- and two-tenths of an inch of rain, she said.
"They'll get some snow above 7,000 feet, but here in the Valley we're expecting lighter amounts of rain," Bean said. "But it's the first rain we've had in quite a while, so we'll take it."
The Merced area has seen no rain this month, and only 1.02 inches for the season. The normal amount for this time of year is 6.17 inches.
On Jan. 17, Gov. Jerry Brown declared a drought in California and directed state officials to take all necessary action to prepare and assist farmers and communities that are economically affected by dry conditions.
Bean said it would take "a lot of systems and lot more rain" to make any noticeable dent in the drought.
The National Weather Service considers a drought to be two to three consecutive years of below-average rainfall. The weather service's Climate Prediction Center is looking at a 40 percent chance of precipitation for most of the state between February and April.
"Any opportunity for rain would make us happy," said David Robinson, agriculture commissioner for Merced County.
The lack of rain has begun to have an effect on the roughly 562,000 acres of range land in Merced County.
A sizable portion of the grass-growing season has passed, and Robinson said that means ranchers are having to buy more expensive feed for their animals. If rain comes next month, he said, the ranchers may be able to salvage some of the growing season. "That's a crisis that's ongoing at this point," he said.
On the other side of the agriculture industry are growers who are dependent on the San Luis Reservoir. The reservoir near Los Banos is at the very low 340,000 acre-feet level. An acre-foot, which amounts to roughly 325,000 gallons of water, is the amount it would take to cover one acre 1 foot deep.
Lake McClure, which is east of Snelling, is filled to about one-quarter of its capacity at about 226,000 acre-feet of water.
Growers of almonds, walnuts, grapes and other permanent crops are turning to well water earlier than usual, Robinson said. Paying for the diesel fuel or electricity to pump water also costs growers.
So growers are hoping for a wet February and March. "You can always hope," Robinson said.
Some rain in the Valley means snow in the mountains, where the lack thereof has hurt hydrology research.
The northern Sierra snowpack is 5 percent of normal, according to measurements by the California Department of Water Resources. The monthly snow survey is intended to measure snow depth and water content in a region crucial to statewide water supplies.
UC Merced's Sierra Nevada Research Institute, which is funded by the National Science Foundation, is researching ways to better estimate and measure the snowpack and water supply. The institute studies how forest vegetation, soil and other factors change the water runoff.
"Is there more runoff? Is there more snow on the ground?" said Roger Bales, who heads the institute. "When it's a really dry year, you have trouble separating the signal from the noise."
The institute has been able to gather data on years with limited snowfall, Bales said, but it needs to be able to study heavy years as well. It's research such as Bales' that cities use to plan for their water supply.
The expected snowfall this week is a welcome sight, but Bales said forecasts can be unreliable. He said the average for the mountains is 3 feet of snow between October and April.
"Two-tenths is, as they say, a drop in the bucket," Bales said, "or a drop in the water supply," referring to the expected amount of rain.
The National Weather Service reminds drivers to be careful when the rain falls, because dirt and oils have built up and roads will become slick.

OAKLAND, Calif. – Warriors Gaming Squad (WGS), the NBA 2K League affiliate team of the Golden State Warriors organization, selected six players in the inaugural NBA 2K League Draft today, which took place at The Hulu Theater in Madison Square Garden. The draft consisted of six rounds with each team selecting one player per round in a snake order, and Warriors Gaming Squad made the following selections:
Trong "Shawn_Win" Nguyen, Small Forward
17th overall (17th pick of the first round)
Alex "Bsmoove" Reese, Shooting Guard
18th overall (first pick of the second round)
Jordan "LeVert" Gates, Power Forward
51st overall (17th pick of the third round)
Xavier "Type" Vescovi, Center
52nd overall (first pick of the fourth round)
Cody "LYKaPRO" Hart, Point Guard
85th overall (17th pick of the fifth round)
Wallace "Sleep" Williams III, Point Guard
86th overall (first pick of the sixth round)
Nguyen, 23, is a shot creating slasher at the small forward position from Chicago who began playing competitively in NBA 2K14. Reese, 20, is a pure sharpshooter at the shooting guard position from Oregon who has played competitive NBA 2K since 2015. Gates, 19, is a rebounding athletic finisher at the power forward position from Massachusetts who began playing competitive NBA 2K in 2012. Vescovi, 20, is a slashing rebounder at the center position from Indianapolis who first played competitively in NBA 2K10. Hart, 29, is a playmaking shot creator at the point guard position from New Jersey who has been playing competitive NBA 2K since 2010. Williams, 19, is a playmaking shot creator at the point guard position from Minnesota who first played competitively in NBA 2K16.
The six players will relocate to the Bay Area this month, where they will practice ahead of the NBA 2K League's inaugural season tipping off in May. The players on Warriors Gaming Squad will compete as unique basketball player characters in 5-on-5 play against the other 16 teams in a mix of regular-season games, tournaments and playoffs.
The process of selecting gamers for the final player pool began with a qualifier in January that yielded 72,000 players and a combine in February. Following the combine, the NBA 2K League identified the top 250 players and held live, one-on-one interviews with each player. After the interviews, all player information was evaluated by a selection committee and used to determine the 102 players eligible to be drafted.

I've seen a lot of professions of love, beautiful Valentine's Day cards and many warm and loving sentiments floating across my Facebook newsfeed this morning. Then I saw an article by my friend Michele Gwynn about what folks really want for Valentine's Day. You can read that HERE. And then it occurred to me that most of what I was looking at was for younguns. Some of us are no longer young. So that got me to thinking. . . what would older folks want for Valentine's Day.
Well, if you're married, I think you want to be remembered. Cards, flowers and candy sometimes get lost in the progression of years and it becomes just another day. Even a peck on the cheek with a heartfelt greeting of "Happy Valentine's Day" can do it for you. If you get more than that. . . WOOT!
No card, peck on the cheek or otherwise? Make your love's favorite dinner. You've been together a long time. You know what it is. If dinner can't be changed, make cupcakes or some other quick and easy dessert that's your love's favorite. Even a drink can be special. Sprinkle some cinnamon in a cup of hot chocolate. It's easy to say, "Hey, I appreciate you hangin' around this long and I'm glad you're still here." Sounds like a lot less than a gushy, passionate "I LOVE YOU," but after you've been together for a long, long time, you'll see what I mean.
I think what I'm trying to say here is that instead of hearts and flowers and pronouncements of romantic love, what you're trying to say is what an old song by the group Orleans says. . . You're still the one! Remember that? Click here if you'd like to listen. 🙂 "You're Still the One" by Orleans
If you're alone, this may be one of the worst holidays for you. Everyone's preaching love and togetherness. You probably feel like you just don't belong. So love yourself. Buy yourself some flowers or candy or a little something you want. Reach out. You're not the only lonely person out there. Go to a nursing home and visit. Don't laugh. My grandmom used to volunteer in a nursing home when she was older than most of the residents! You will put smiles on people's faces but the best part is you'll put a warm glow in your own heart.
If you're an older couple on a fixed or tight income, there are a lot of things you can do to show your love that you care without breaking that already meager bank.
Make a Valentine card. Go to the dollar store and get some construction paper. Surely you remember construction paper? Play like you're a kid again and make a Valentine. It doesn't have to be perfect or look like it came from Hallmark. That's the beauty of it. Write your heart on that red paper. Cut up a paper lace doily (yes, they still make them) and trim. Voila! Instant love.
Dinner at a fancy restaurant is nice, but getting a coffee from Starbucks or other coffee shop is nice, too. A burger at McDonald's will do the trick (if your heart can take it). The point is to eat the meal with the one you love. What you eat is really unimportant. Grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup at home will work just as well.
Need an inexpensive Valentine gift? Fancy chocolates are great, but you can just as easily go buy some candy hearts (that dollar store again!) and put them in a fancy Valentine box or tie them up in a square of red felt or even paper; adorn with a ribbon. If you know your person has a favorite candy bar, one of those will do just fine, too. It's the love that counts, not the price tag.
If you can afford a movie, that's a nice night out. If not, rent one from one of the red or blue boxes. Our Redbox rents for $1.28. Get some hot chocolate or other beverage of choice and cuddle up on the sofa.
There are lots of things you can do, even if you are an old fart, and, yeah, it's sill early on Valentine's Day, so if you're old and thinking this day is past you or you're still young and in love but broke, there are many things you can do. Now go show someone you love them!

Bay Tree Broadstairs Refurbishment Week 55
The Bay Tree Broadstairs is currently closed for a major refurbishment and will re-open in December 2017.
We've delayed re-opening owing to slower than anticipated progress with our refurbishment.
We're now managing the remainder of our build (primarily decoration, second-fixes and snagging plus landscaping) ourselves along with a new site manager instead of through our original building contractors.
We would like to thank all of our guests for their patience – we will be open as soon as we can and we're sure it'll be worth the wait!
We are still reachable by phone 01843 862502 & email firstname.lastname@example.com for enquiries and future bookings.
Ben has been monitoring the progress of our refurbsihment.
At the rear of The Bay Tree we have been busy building walls in our garden.
The walls on our driveway leading on to the Eastern Esplanade are almost complete.
These steps, which will be completed with bricks, will lead from our car park and patio underneath our bay tree to our rear entrance.
At the top of the hotel we are almost ready to put complete the top of our staircase.
Our decorators have been working hard on our decor and many rooms are now getting their final touches, with woodwork being finished and snagging issues being addressed.
This is the view from our triple-aspect sea-view 'turret' in Room 9, Yew.
Our library has had it's first coat of paint and is now being snagged – the white patches are where there are little details that need going over before the next coat. The wall behind the light will have our walk-up bar.
We're still collecting small furniture items such as this bedside table and old televsion cabinet which will also get used as a bedside table.
Ben and Alistair are still finding time to relax, here on a walk in the beautiful Stour Valley.

Thank you for the latest blog. It is lovely to see the nearly-built walls and steps at the rear and the side of the Bay Tree. I am glad that such care is being taken over the outside areas as first impressions are so important.

As you know, on Tuesdays I recommend a movie that has death in it. You may ask yourself, now why on earth would I want to subject myself to watching a movie that's going to make me sad? In my humble opinion, I think it's good to practice those sad or scary feelings with the help of Hollywood. Like I tell my son when he gets scared by something he sees in a film, I say it's just a movie. And it is.
This past week, I went to see The Amazing Spiderman with my husband and kids. I was really looking forward to seeing it because I love Spiderman. Out of all the superheroes, he is my all time favorite and I hate spiders, but I like his story. He's an orphan, he feels guilt for the death of his uncle, he's a geeky outsider, he feels he doesn't deserve love, he's moral, he doesn't have lots of money and he wants to help people. Plus, he looks pretty good in his costume.
So, I sat through the newest installment of a very familiar origin story. I laughed, I got a bit weepy when Uncle Ben died, and I thrilled at the special effects. But, and there's always a but, I was SERIOUSLY bummed out when I left the theater. My husband and kids loved this movie more than the other ones made less than ten years ago. For some reason, I felt bad for Tobey Maguire who is now too old to play the superhero. So, instead of feeling awesome, I felt like I was perpetuating ageism. Like Tobey, I'm also getting old. And call me crazy, but I guess it scares me a little bit that no one feels just a wee bit sad that he was replaced by Andrew Garfield.
Not that there's anything wrong with Mr. Garfield. I think he is a terrific actor. He stars in today's movie of the week, Never Let Me Go which came out in 2010. It's based on a novel by Kazuo Ishiguro. And I'm not going to spoil it for you by revealing the plot, but I will say that it's science fiction. I really enjoyed it.
So, have you seen the Amazing Spiderman yet? What are your thoughts? On Friday after I'd written this post, I saw this article about a study on why people like tearjerkers.

One Hand Clapping has some thoughts on Steve Spurrier, the recently departed head coach of the Washington Redskins.
Anyway, what Spurrier has to consider now is that there are no off weeks in the NFL. He is playing the equivalent of Tennessee or FSU every week. There are no rankings, there is only the cold, cruel ledger of the win-loss ratio. Not only is every NFL team going to play him at a consistently high level he is not used to facing week after week, at some point he will realize that the other head coaches are just as good as he is, or better. The other coaching staffs are just as good as his.
College ball has as many layers of skill and talent as a Black Forest cake, but not the NFL. The NFL has only two layers: playoff teams or stay-home teams. And all the teams are hungry, and all the teams are good.
Good stuff. I honestly believe that Spurrier's offense could work in the NFL, and I think that the 'Skins had most of the personnel they needed to make it happen. Another offseason of adjustments and another role-player or two might have been enough. I think coaches need three seasons in the NFL before they can be fairly judged.
That being said, Spurrier was clearly flailing and failing. I'm not fan of the guy or his system, but I'm not looking forward to a new guy coming in and needing two years to clean house and a third to bring his plan to fruition.
'Skins coaches don't seem to last that long.

CD15 is present in greater than 90% of granulocytes including neutrophils and eosinophils and to a lesser degree on monocytes. CD15 is expressed in Reed-Sternberg cells of Hodgkin's disease (nodular sclerosis, mixed cellularity and lymphocyte-depleted subtypes), and on certain types of epithelial cells. It is generally agreed that the Reed-Sternberg cell variants in lymphocytepredominant Hodgkin's disease are not reactive with CD15.

This week in nerd rage, Watch Dogs - What happened here?
So you've probably heard the wave of disappointment over Watch Dogs' release especially in Reddit, especially with expectations being unbelievably high. I'll try to keep neutral and try to show both sides here (I hope) with my chosen videos . This is a game that has been so hyped over the last 2 years, it's almost impossible to imagine it or any other game living up to that hype. When you expect a game to be an 11/10 but ends up being 8/10 or a 9/10, many regard it as a failure. Is this fair? Probably not. I haven't played it yet, but based on the videos and discussions I've read online, there's been a healthy amount of debate.
Watch Dogs - E3 2012 vs PC Release (Ultra)
[youtube_sc url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_A6Z3gkXlk"] I'd say this is probably where a lot of the anger stems from. Watch and see for yourself the difference in fidelity from what was initially shown in E3 versus the actual product today on a high end PC running the game in Ultra. To be honest, the game doesn't look that bad (obviously) but it begs the question, what happened to all of the high quality textures, shaders and effects from 2012, and how come they didn't make it to the final product?
Watch Dogs vs. GTA 5: A video comparison
[youtube_sc url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_KqouNYfMY"] So lets change gears a little and look at Watch Dogs for what it truly is. I absolutely love this open minded critique by Polygon, and I'll just go ahead and quote the entire opening paragraph because I think it was eloquently written:
"Watch Dogs is Ubisoft's play for the Grand Theft Auto crowd. This sounds like cynical speculation, but really it's business. Grand Theft Auto V is approaching $2 billion in sales, and it's inevitable releases on PC and next-generation consoles hasn't even been announced. Every AAA publisher wants those sales. As far as Grand Theft Auto inspired games go, Watch Dogs differentiates itself in some fascinating, sometimes ambitious ways. The ability to hack objects changes how the player engages with the virtual world, allowing interaction with citizens without unholstering a gun. What's surprising, though, is how much GTA's cynical spirit found its way into Watch Dogs. The two games are similar — just not in the way you might have guessed."
So what do you think of Watch Dogs? I'd really like to know, please leave a comment and give us your opinion.

I know, he's in his 90's. He's lived a long life. He was ready to move on, but I don't think I was ready yet. Though I doubt I'd ever be ready. I always thought there would be one more summer. One more summer visit. One more chance for a story. One more chance to see his great grand children. One more chance to look at old photo's. One more chance to see my grandpa.
I still see his younger face on the floor playing with me. Teasing me. Laughing with me. I still remember him walking through the door after getting off of work from the steel mill. I still remember his laugh. His hair, always trimmed just perfectly.
I've been sitting on those 2 paragraphs for the last 4 days. I'm not quite sure where to go from there. When my other grandpa passed away a few years ago that post was so easy to write. This time I'm just stuck.
Yes I loved this man. He'll always hold a special place in my heart. The pride I feel when I tell people about his service in World War II is overwhelming. The day we went to the World War II memorial with him in DC is forever ingrained in my memory.
I love that he got to meet and got to know Mike. I'll never forget that first time I took Mike back to Johnstown to meet my grandparents. We took Grandpa K to Eat and Park where we sat for hours listening to him tell us stories about World War II. Mike and I still giggle about that restaurant to this day. I'm beyond happy that he got to meet and love Ellie and I'll always regret that he didn't have the chance to meet Zach. I think will always feel guilty about that.
When Grandpa H passed away there wasn't a second thought about dropping everything and to fly across country to be there with my family. This time, the decision wasn't so easy. I sat down and started searching for plane tickets a number of times. I could never bring myself to click purchase.
I always felt like an outsider when it came to this family. Maybe it was that I didn't actually spend most of my life in PA. Maybe I tried to hard to be noticed or liked and that made me even more annoying. Oh dear, do I know I was and can still be annoying! Regardless, having relatives that won't speak to you and knowing in your gut there are things being said about you is an awful feeling.
I loved him enough to not bring more tension to family that is already spilling over with tension, guilt, and awkwardness. I know, every family has drama and tension, but for some reason, this family takes it beyond dysfunctional. I think avoiding it would probably best everyone, but it might make for a great novel one day.
Maybe in time it will be easier to write my grandpa's story and to say goodbye to him my way. For the moment I'll take comfort in knowing that if there is something after this life, he now knows the truth about each of us.

Actor Charlie Heaton has apologized to fans for missing the Stranger Things season two premiere party after he was denied entry to the U.S. over drug allegations.
The British star was detained at Los Angeles International Airport on October 21 and then deported back to the U.K. after authorities reportedly found traces of cocaine on his wallet during a random bag check.
As a result, Heaton was prevented from joining his TV castmates at the Stranger Things season two celebration last week, but he has now assured fans he is doing his best to clear up the immigration problem.
"My planned travel to the U.S. last week was affected by an issue at U.S. immigration, and I am working to rectify it as soon as possible," he shared in a statement released on Monday, insisting he was "not arrested or charged with a crime, and cooperated fully with the U.S. officials at LAX."
"I'm sorry to all the fans and my Stranger Things family for missing the premiere," Heaton continued. "We are all so proud of this season and I would never want this story to negatively impact the show."
While Heaton didn't address the drug possession allegations specifically, his relatives have spoken out to protest the claims.
In an interview with the Daily Mail, his sister Kaayleigh Heaton revealed the actor had provided officials with various samples to be tested for drugs in a bid to prove his innocence – and they have all reportedly come back negative for illegal substances.
"He is racking his brain about how this could happen," she said. "He hasn't done anything, he wasn't carrying anything…
"He has had hair sample, a blood test and urine sample which are absolutely clean. A hair sample can last up to five months so that proves he hasn't taken anything."
Heaton's mother, Michelle Lowe, also insisted her son has "never done drugs", telling the publication, "All that rubbish (reports of his drug use), it's completely fabricated."
"He has proven his innocence (undergoing tests)," she continued, claiming Heaton likely picked up the cocaine residue without his knowledge by putting his wallet down during a night out. "It could happen to any of us, you go to a bar or a party. It's just unfortunate really. I know that's what has happened. I hope it blows over."
Kaayleigh went on to accuse U.S. airport authorities of purposefully targetting Heaton, 23, because of his fame as Stranger Things character Jonathan Byers, and alleges they failed to follow the proper legal procedures and allow the actor access to a lawyer.
She added, "They didn't follow procedure. I think they saw him, they noticed him and they used him as a target.
"He wasn't carrying anything, he wasn't under the influence of any drugs. I think it's just a misunderstanding."
