The Autumn Term began in usual fashion: blazing sunshine; lots of happy smiling children; lots of even happier, smiling (relieved?) parents; a body of staff raring to go; home clothes; fun and games in the grounds and the mother of all barbecues….
This is the longest stretch of the academic year without a break and we have finally arrived at the first Weekend Out; two weeks and two days may not seem a long slog but, after a 9 week Summer holiday, it does take a while to get back into the swing of things, particularly from an academic point of view.
In order to help encourage this, we have introduced this term the BOFA learning platform which the children can do online; this gives them both practice and assistance with Maths, English, VR and NVR tests and acts as first-class preparation for the battery of ISEB tests that they are now subjected to by the senior schools. I am delighted to see how happily and successfully they have taken to this and that the children are all now back in the groove academically.
That is not to say that it has been all work and no play!
On the first Weekend In, there were no matches but some excellent training sessions followed by free time and then Saturday Sweets. Mrs. K. has surpassed herself this year; she ordered 250kg of sweets which needed to be brought into the school on a palette truck; the choice is simply mesmerising.
On Sunday we had a morning service, at which I got my tutees to preach; this was followed by 'Inflatable Fun' – the boarders had three hours playing on a range of inflatables in the grounds – a full report, with aerial photos, appeared on our Facebook page.
The first Hockey matches of term took place against Kilgraston, although they were 'home' fixtures we had to travel to Meadowmill to play as the new Astro at Hallhill was not fully carpeted in time (I am delighted to report that it is now open – the ribbon being cut by our own Scotland hockey international, Mr. Riddell.) We were victorious in both.
Form 5 went on their annual pilgrimage up Traprain Law with Mrs. Parks and Mr. Bailey – at the summit there was an excellent historical and geographical talk given by Mr. Bailey and, more importantly, some restorative Freddos.
The second Weekend In of term, saw the first rugby fixtures of term for the U11s and U9s – they are both strong teams and are coming to terms with the new Age Grade Variations (AGVs) laid down by the SRU. We were victorious in both – although I am likely to be chastised for saying so, as part of the reason behind the new AGVs is to encourage inclusion rather than competition; no comment.
On the second Sunday of term (after a first foray for a while to Belhaven Parish Church), as is fast becoming tradition we held a charity event to which all parents were invited. This year it was a school fête, organised predominantly by the school's Charity Club under the watchful eye of Mme. Brodie and ably supported by the PTFA, to raise money for UNICEF and a local charity, the Teapot Trust.
Although the weather turned against us and we had to move most of the stalls into the Sports Hall, it was a huge success – throwing the wet sponge at the Headmaster was a particularly popular attraction, as was the 'Guess which teacher is which toddler?' photo board (bottom left in picture on the right), although nowhere close to the lure of the Tombola for which there was a queue throughout. Again, there are plenty of photos to enjoy on the school's Facebook page. We raised just over £1250.00 for the charities and, equally importantly, many of the boarders spent a very happy afternoon with their families – a great time was had by all.
This week there has been a rush of children off to pre-test at Harrow and Uppingham. Unfortunately, due to Storm Ali, all Wednesday fixtures were cancelled but we did send a team to the Loretto Golf tournament on Thursday.
Today the parents of the Form 6 children (the littlest and newest ones at the bottom of the school) are coming in to see what they have been up to in their first few weeks at Belhaven; the PTFA are kindly providing cakes and coffee as a journey breaker for all and, after an academic meeting over soup and sandwiches, the staff will disappear for a well-earned rest, ready to launch headlong into the next section of term on Monday morning.
That is all.

If I'm awake at 2 a.m. and still awake at 4:15, and I'm rolling this current controversy over in my mind the whole time, I'm going to guess the Spirit is tugging at me . . . and I'll happily respond. Even at the risk of disappointing my friends, even at the risk of handing my adversaries more grist for the mill.
My concern here is twofold: One, I want to take responsibility for what I did write (say, do, think), and, two, I want to not have this young woman — the Nuart questioner — to be humiliated by too much discussion of who she is and where she attends school. I don't know who she is; others do, and I hope they keep it quiet. Her identity isn't at all germane to this discussion, and now that we all know she's not, in fact, an NSA student, it's enough to leave her out of the picture. I don't want to hold her up by name to any ridicule for a question that, while dumb, and which shouldn't have been allowed, was apparently asked in sincerity. (One thing: I listened to a recording of her question; I would not have commented as I did based on hearsay or even a printed transcript).
When I posited that the question was asked by an NSA student, my thinking was NOT, "My, what a stupid question. She must be NSA . . . " That would have been wrong — not just factually wrong, but morally wrong. And yes, it turns out I was factually wrong, and I acknowledge that. (I'm leaving out references to the reasons I made the assumption; you can find that on my blog, and my interest here is not in defending why I concluded what I did). My thinking WAS, "Wow, that question (asked at an NSA forum, etc.) reflects the same kind of anti-Muslim sentiment and bigotry against Obama that I've seen from Kirk and NSA leaders . . . She must be
NSA . . . " I do not believe that to be a sinful assumption. Factually wrong, yes, and the journalist in me is chastened; but neither the thinking that led to my conclusion or my analysis of what an NSA education would bring about in terms of a political, religious worldview was morally wrong. Nor was it carelessly wrought, and I still believe that the education and worldview offered at NSA and through Christ Church is seriously lacking.
Did it embarrass me? Yes. I don't like pointing out when Dale Courtney screws up. This will sound meaner than I intend it to, but I'd like to never engage with Dale again, period. I will, though, when something offensive comes up. But obviously his very public, very pointed delight in my error wasn't a lot of fun. (Well, not for me. He and Gary had a ball, and they get to). I don't do this — study, write, and speak about theology and often, by necessity, through the lens of Christ Church error — because it's easy, or because I'm preternaturally incisive, or because I love publicity. I do it because it needs to be done, I believe, by someone in the Church. I'm much more concerned with any errors of my heart than with looking foolish for having made a wrong assumption — but I will always try to do better, and, frankly, I handed a freebie to those predisposed to disliking me or making fun of me. Didn't intend to, but I did. And so what I regret is that I caused other people to stumble. I made it easy for them to — perhaps — engage in less-than-moral mocking and contempt for me. The regret I hold over that — I caused others to stumble, people who I knew would rejoice at my error — is far greater than the embarrassment of having been found to be wrong in my assumption.
Again, my analysis of NSA and its worldview as a failed, flawed system still stands — no matter who asked the question. And obviously Dale has an intense dislike for me, and I gave him a "gotcha!" moment that didn't bring out the best in him. I take responsibility for that, and for that, I've asked the Lord's forgiveness. I regret, much more than you can likely understand, that it looks to outsiders that Dale and I are fighting like two alley cats, and every day I struggle with what to comment on, what to leave alone, and what to just pray about, just as I do with Doug Wilson's writings (yesterday's "homo, queer, poofter, buggary, faggotry" column, for example). I don't believe that much of what Dale posts is honoring to the Gospel. I do believe that in most cases, silence is, if not assent, then an apathy that borders on the sinful. So I wrestle — not with Dale, not with my public reputation, not with anything other than how to best use the gifts I have to differentiate truth from error, beauty from filth, Christ from the unfortunate proclivities of His followers. I am a much harder critic of myself than Dale, Gary, or anyone else ever will be, and I'm going to ask those of you who are my friends to not try to find ways to slam either of them about this. I always covet your prayers, and I'll always try to get it right — for the sake of righteousness.
Now, a public acknowledgement of sin: Last week, I posted a sarcastic, throwaway comment on Wilson's Blog and Mablog regarding an upcoming conference on Father Hunger (it's been removed, and should have been). I've occasionally interacted with Wilson on his blog, but only when I had a point to make. This was just snarkiness on my part, and I emailed an apology to him that I assume he's accepted. I don't mind a sharp, pointed observation, but on someone else's blog, I am a guest, and I didn't behave like one then. That was a failing, and one I regret.

As bloggers & digital marketers, we know that images are everything. It helps us make our content visually appealing, get more clicks from social media sites, helps in branding & can also earn you precious backlinks (especially if you know how to create infographics).
We all know these facts, but the challenge is creating all of these things on our own. The first thing which I often say to myself is, "I don't like spending time on Photoshop". The truth is I don't know how to use Photoshop & now I don't have enough time to learn Photoshop or any other time-intensive graphic making tool.
Luckily, we live in an era where we are blessed with many amazing tools that makes graphic creation a piece of cake.
There is Fotor which is convenient and good, but it ends up costing a lot if you need to create premium graphics daily. Moreover, they don't have a desktop tool which (to me) is a little counter-intuitive.
Today, I will be sharing one desktop based tool that I use to create graphics & it's pretty darn good.
It's called YouZign.
YouZign is available on iCloud (web-app) or you can also download their Windows or Mac desktop app (plus they also have an Android app).
I'm not a big fan of their mobile app, but the desktop app & webapp are completely worth the money. It's a recurring monthly charge at $10/month, but you can try it for 7 days for $1.
Bonus: Use coupon code SHOUTMELOUD to get an additional 10% off.
This detailed review of YouZign 2.0 will outline the pros and cons as well as everything else you need to know.
So, without further ado, let's being:
YouZign 2.0 Review:
YouZign vs. Canva (and others)
Whenever I have to create graphics for blog posts, Facebook Ads, FB Covers, Kindle covers, webinar slides, and so on, apart from making the graphics visually appealing, I do have to keep the time factor in mind.
I don't want to spend a great deal of time creating graphics & missing out on other important work. At times, I hire graphic artists from Fiverr & Truelancer to get things done, but it's not feasible to outsource like this all the time.
I got to know about YouZign when I was searching for easy ways to create graphics for my online marketing needs. That's when I tried Stencil & Canva.
I really enjoyed using Shareasimage, but it was limited to putting text over these really beautiful images.
Canva is another great tool, but most of the good stuff on here is paid. It's not bad for a one time thing, but to use it daily, this is not an economically viable option.
This is when I started looking at YouZign, as it seemed to be a popular template-based graphics creation tool. I ignored buying it for a long time until I saw their YouZign 2.0, which is full of features that any blogger or digital marketer would love.
Create beautiful graphics without Photoshop skills
YouZign simplifies the graphics creation for everything. You can create images for any type of content or platform.
Let me walk you through the interface and kinds of features you'll find on YouZign.
Once you are inside the dashboard of YouZign, you will see this:
The very first thing you might want to do is create multiple folders as it will help you to stay organized.
From here, you have two options:
- Create a graphic from scratch
- Use their pre-made template to quickly make & edit graphics.
New design:
I clicked on "New Design" and as you can see, there are tons of options.
In this case, we are given a blank canvas with an appropriate size & we can create anything we want.
I selected "Twitter Cover" & within less than 5 minutes, I created this:
(It's actually way more interesting when you do it yourself.)
Once you are done creating the graphic, you can click on "Preview" at the top right to see how the graphic will look on your selected network. Here is an example:
This is pretty useful when you are creating graphics for a client or selling it as a service on Fiverr. This saves a lot of time as you can see how your creation will look before downloading.
One rule of branding is consistency & you can make sure you are consistent by using this tool's social media features. You can quickly copy the same design for different social media image sizes.
Isn't that easy?
YouZign Template:
YouZign offers around 200 pre-made templates that you can use to create graphics within seconds. You can sort templates based on your requirement type.
For example: Kindle cover templates
You can always upload your own image & edit it too.
Here is one image which I created using the Post Image template.
I could go on & keep talking about the plethora of great features that YouZign 2.0 has.
But I believe it's better if you try it yourself & come back later to thank me (…and you will).
You can download their Mac, Windows & Android app from here.
You can try it out for 7 days for $1.
Coupon code: SHOUTMELOUD (Gives additional 10% off)
In my opinion, this is one of the best one-time investments that you could possibly be making. You can use YouZign for creating images for everything you do online and even many things you do offline as well.
Here is a video which outlines what YouZign can do for you:
If you have already purchased YouZign 2.0, do share your review & your feedback with us in the comment section. And if you have any questions, feel free to ask away.
Also, if you know some people who could benefit from this powerful tool, please share it with them on Facebook and Twitter.

In Dec. 2015 I saw Dave Travis sitting-in with one of Dave Williams' groups at Cafe NELA and realized that I knew three unconventional cello improvisers. I invited them to form a group, Dave Travis named us Cello Pudding, we played several shows at NELA, and spent a day in the studio. The album is now ready and we will be making our first appearance before an audience who have not come to drink beer and listen to punk rock.
Here are the details:
recorded at Catasonic Studios by Mark Wheaton.
Cover by Dean Westerfield.
Vetza (LAFMS): cello & voice
Dave Travis (Carnage Asada): cello
Michael Intriere (Fat & F*&^ed Up, Anna Homler): cello
me: bass
Coming soon to Amazon, iTunes, CDBaby, etc.
CD release show Aug. 6 7PM at the Open Gate series at the Center for the Arts Eagle Rock. Admission $10 ($5 for series performers).
We're opening for the Michael Vlatkovich/Steuart Liebig/Garth Powell triumvirate.
I'm pretty stoked about bringing together these folks and about playing free improvised music that's based on the four of us making sounds together with no preconceptions.

Ricey and his ladies a perfect marriage
If Fermanagh manager Rory Gallagher should need an example of what his new selector Ryan McMenamin brings to a team environment, he would have found it in Kilkeel last Saturday.
After a coaching clinic hosted by Carlow's Steve Poacher at his St Columban's School, over 150 coaches were invited into the assembly hall for a questions and answers session.
Kilcoo manager Paul McIver was there and in answering a question about how the remit of managing a Gaelic football team has expanded to taking on the personal problems of his players, he recounted how lucky he was to manage at Dromore, where Ryan McMenamin looked after all issues in-house.
Break-ups with girlfriends, difficult times at work, all that 'time-vampire' stuff was taken care of by 'Ricey', who never missed any Dromore training session that wasn't the same night as a Tyrone one. He's still playing away.
It's the first thing that Gallagher asked him after Dromore were knocked out of the Tyrone Championship by Clonoe, and he offered encouragement for him to continue in 2018.
Combining it with his Fermanagh commitments will be a test, but McMenamin is proving himself a miracle worker with time management as he manages Tyrone side St Macartan's in tomorrow's Ulster Ladies Football final against Donaghmoyne of Monaghan, who are in an incredible 15th consecutive Ulster decider.
It's a repeat of last year's final, which they lost 2-12 to 1-6. This is McMenamin's third year in charge, most likely the last.
"They couldn't get anyone to manage them," he says of his unlikely posting over the club from the Clogher Valley. "I told them I would go in and start them off, get them going until they got a manager. Three years later, I am still here!"
GAA Newsletter
The link comes through his wife Maura, an Ulster Council employee, who has played in an All-Ireland final for Tyrone back in 2010 and who's still going strong with the 'Macs'.
Asked if it is a good way of spending time together, he quips in that style of his; "In some ways, but hey… If the result doesn't go well…
"You are sharing a common interest. It does help but at the same time, it is hard to draw the line sometimes. You have to be careful!"
Does she share his need to win though? "Maura is no different, same as any other footballer," he begins. "When you came into the Macartan's club, there is a great culture of the girls wanting to do better and they are always pushing themselves. We have brought in new things to what they have been doing over the last number of years. But the girls never complain.
"They have a great will to win, but I think that is down to the culture in the club."
Sometimes it feels like there is no escaping football. In his day job; he is the point of contact for farmers appealing failed inspections of their flock of lambs. The area he covers is Fermanagh and Tyrone. There's a lot of football kicked around those fields and byres.
He wouldn't have it any other way though. The 39-year-old has been coaching teams in his club since he was 21 and the ladies' game is a learning experience for him. Sometimes, it feels as if there are no differences. But there are some subtle and yet crucial ones all the same.
"You have different things like you could tell a fella to run ten times up and down the field. With girls, they wouldn't be afraid to question you, so you always need to be on your toes. Which is not a bad thing."
There is a sophistication that has bled into the ladies' code. The 46,286 attendance at the All-Ireland finals was the clearest signal yet that the appeal and the product is reaching critical mass.
That filters down into aspects of tactics and preparations.
Against Errigal Ciarán in the Tyrone Championship, the 'Macs' had to figure their way around their opponents' defensive shell.
In Ulster, Donegal's Glenfin played two sweepers against them. Armagh champions Clann éireann dropped numbers back and sprung from deep, just like the Tyrone seniors' counter-attacking game. Tactically, there is a lot to get your teeth into.
"About 10/15 years ago, if you took a ladies' team, it was because nobody else wanted the job. Or nobody could do it, or you couldn't get a job with a men's team," McMenamin points out.
"I think that is changing. You only have to watch the All-Ireland final between Mayo and Dublin there, with Mick Bohan taking Dublin. He has been in with Dublin men, in with St Vincent's and he is a top, top-quality coach.
"That only helps, the more top-quality players and coaches."
For now, he has a final to win, against the greatest club that the game in Ulster has ever seen in Donaghmoyne.
"We played last year and we might have felt we did alright against them but we were beat by nine points and that's the story," he recalls.
"They are a fantastic side. They might have lost a few players but they got a couple of new players in and Louise Kerley scored 1-11 in the last game.
"They are not like any other club where you lose a couple of players and it would affect you. They have a big panel and they are able to bring players off the bench just as good."

The retired handymen of Orange Park known as the James Boys - famous for building wheelchair ramps and refurbishing bicycles for children without them - recently helped a 6-year-old foster child get a permanent home and family, complete with the princess bedroom of her dreams.
In 2005, Tyler Lahey was removed from her home in Green Cove Springs for abuse and neglect. A year later, she was placed with her Aunt Sharon and Uncle Robert Lahey, also of Green Cove Springs, who were ready to adopt her.
But the Laheys' 920-square-foot mobile home didn't have an extra bedroom and didn't meet state space requirements for adoptive homes. The Laheys, who already have two sons, were building on an addition themselves. It was framed and roofed, but then they ran out of resources.
"The home had to be adequate, and it wasn't. The magistrate bent over backwards allowing delay after delay," said Nora Milne, chief program officer for Kids First of Florida, formerly known as Clay & Baker Kids Net.
"We didn't know what we were going to do. We had to start thinking about moving her to another foster home."
To prevent that, Kids First officials called around seeking a service agency to finish the construction. Eventually, they called Wayne Scott, leader of the James Boys of Orange Park United Methodist Church.
"It was dead end after dead end. And then along comes this angel named Wayne Scott," said LaFreda Portee, Kids First adoption specialist and Tyler's case worker.
The James Boys raised money and found suppliers and contractors who doubled the size of the mobile home, adding a bedroom for Tyler and expanding the master bedroom and living room area.
"They stepped in and finished it within a month," Sharon Lahey said. "We were in awe."
At the home recently, Tyler, a first-grader at Charles E. Bennett Elementary School, pretended to bake a cake in her play kitchen set. Later, she pointed to the Disney princess stickers on her walls, stopping at Snow White.
"I'm like her," Tyler said. "She likes animals and I like animals. I love my room."

Luxfer Gas Cylinders Acquires Luxfer GTM Technologies
Luxfer Gas Cylinders has acquired a 100 percent ownership position in Luxfer GTM Technologies.
In 2013 Luxfer Gas Cylinders entered into a joint venture (JV) relationship, creating Luxfer GTM Technologies to develop, manufacture and sell or lease high pressure, lightweight, gas transport modules. Effective December 28, 2018, that JV is separated into two areas: manufacturing/sales and leasing.
Luxfer Gas Cylinders will take full responsibility for the manufacturing and sales portion of the business from the base in Catoosa, Oklahoma, operating as Luxfer GTM Technologies. The leasing operations will also continue, but now as an independent entity, owned and operated by our previous partner, Michael Koonce, as "Gas Transport Leasing" out of Berkeley, California.
"We are excited about the opportunities ahead in bulk gas transport," said Andy Butcher, Luxfer Gas Cylinders President, "Over the coming days, we will be working on a transition plan to leverage the synergies that Luxfer brings across sales, marketing, manufacturing, operations and other functional areas. With this acquisition we look forward to providing our customers an expanded set of products and services that they expect from Luxfer, the world's largest manufacturer of gas cylinder solutions."

a walk to remember movie quotes (2002)
about: The story of two North Carolina teens, Landon Carter (Shane West) and Jamie Sullivan (Mandy Moore), who are thrown together after Landon gets into trouble and is made to do community service.
Landon: Our love is like the wind... I can't see it, but I sure can feel it.
Landon: I'm sorry she never got her miracle.
Reverend Sullivan: She did. It was you.
Landon: [voiceover] Jamie saved my life. She taught me everything. About life, hope and the long journey ahead. I'll always miss her. But our love is like the wind. I can't see it, but I can feel it.
Ms. Garber: Mr. Carter, are you trying to be bad at this?
Landon: Nah, it just comes naturally.
Jamie: The problem isn't finding out where you are gonna go-its figuring out what you are gonna do once you get there that is!
Jamie: You know what I figured out today?
Landon: What?
Jamie: Maybe God has a bigger plan for me than I had for myself. Like this journey never ends. Like you were sent to me because I'm sick. To help me through all this. You're my angel.
Landon: [Reading from Jamie's mother book] "Love is always patient and kind. It is never jealous. Love is never boastful or conceited. It is never rude or selfish. It does not take offense and is not resentful".
Landon: Jamie has faith in me. She makes me want to be different, better.
Jamie: You know what I figured out today?
Landon: What?
Jamie: Maybe God has a bigger plan for me than I had for myself. Like this journey never ends. Like you were sent to me because I'm sick. To help me through all this. You're my angel.
Landon: I might kiss you.
Jamie: I might be bad at it.
Landon: That's not possible.
Jamie: You're acting like a crazy person, what's going on?
Landon: Right now, you're straddling the state line.
Jamie: OK...
Landon: You're in two places at once.
Jamie: You have to promise you won't fall in love with me.
Landon: That's not a problem.
Jamie: Without suffering there would be no compassion.
Landon: Yeah, well tell that to those who suffer
Landon: "can you do something for me??"
Jaime: "anything..."
Landon: " will you marry me??"
The problem isnt finding out where you are gonna go-its figuring out what you are gonna do once you get there that is! - Jamie (Mandy Moore)
"[voiceover] Jamie and I had a perfect summer together with more love than most people know in a lifetime. And then she went with her unfailing faith."

Leap Year Movie quotes (2010)
SUMMARY: Anna Brady plans to travel to Dublin, Ireland to propose to her boyfriend Jeremy on February 29, leap day, because, according to Irish tradition, a man who receives a marriage proposal on a leap day must accept it.
Bride: May you never steal, lie, or cheat, but if you must steal, then steal away my sorrows, and if you must lie, lie with me all the nights of my life, and if you must cheat, then please cheat death because I couldn't live a day without you. Cheers!
Declan: Mrs. O'Brady Callhan. Where the hell are you going?
Anna: You said no.
Declan: I didn't say no. I didn't say anything.
Anna: You walked away.
Declan: I was getting something.
Anna: Really? That was a good time to go get something?
Declan: Yeah, it was actually.
[Presents Anna with a ring]
Anna: When my 60 seconds came around i realized i had everything i ever wanted... but nothing i really needed. and i think what i need is here. and i came all this way to see if you maybe think so too. If you do, well... i don't really have plans past that, which is new for me. So, Declan O'Callhan and i should probably learn your middle name, here is my proposal; i propose we not make plans, i propose we give this thing a chance and let it work out how it works out. so what do you say, do you wanna not make plans with me?
Declan: I don't want not to make plans with you. I want to make plans with you.
Anna: You do?
Declan: Yeah I do.
(being asked what she does for a living) "I'm a stager. I stage apartments for realtors. I transform ordinary places into something special. Most people don't know what they want until I show it to them. So many places need my help."
(Declan asks her why she is going to Dublin to meet her boyfriend) "You guys have this great tradition that a woman can propose to a man on the 29th of February in a leap year. So, I thought, why not?"
- Anna, Leap Year
(a herd of cows is blocking the roadway and she takes it upon herself to move them) "I've spent the past 24 hours in every level of hell and I am not going to let your fuzzy white asses drag me any further. So, if you know what's good for you, you'll move. "
- Anna, Leap Year
(after Anna asks him to drive her to Dublin) "Dublin, huh? Let me tell you something about Dublin. Dublin is a city of chances and cheats and back stabbing snakes. It is a city where the worst of humanity collects the poison of their country. I wouldn't advise you to go there."
- Declan, Leap Year
(Anna tells him that it's a romantic tradition after he laughs at her reason for going to Dublin) "It's a day for desperate woman to trap themselves a man who clearly doesn't want to get married. If your man wanted to propose he would have done it already."
- Declan, Leap Year
Always kiss like it's the first time and the last time.

the prestige movie quotes (2006)
hugh jackman
christian bale
scarlett johansson
"Cutter: Obsession is a young man's game"
"Robert Angier: Would I be the man in the box or the prestige?
"Cutter: Every great magic trick consists of three parts or acts. The first part is called The Pledge. The magician shows you something ordinary: a deck of cards, a bird or a man. He shows you this object. Perhaps he asks you to inspect it to see if it is indeed real, unaltered, normal. But of course... it probably isn't. The second act is called The Turn. The magician takes the ordinary something and makes it do something extraordinary. Now you're looking for the secret... but you won't find it, because of course you're not really looking. You don't really want to know. You want to be fooled. But you wouldn't clap yet. Because making something disappear isn't enough; you have to bring it back. That's why every magic trick has a third act, the hardest part, the part we call The Prestige.
[last lines]
Cutter: Now you're looking for the secret. But you wont find it because of course, you're not really looking. You don't really want to work it out. You want to be, fooled.
Robert Angier: I never thought I'd find an answer at the bottom of a pint glass.
Cutter: Hasn't stopped you looking, has it?
Alfred Borden: You went half way around the world... you spent a fortune... you did terrible things... really terrible things Robert, and all for nothing.
Robert Angier: For nothing?
Alfred Borden: Yeah
Robert Angier: You never understood, why we did this. The audience knows the truth: the world is simple. It's miserable, solid all the way through. But if you could fool them, even for a second, then you can make them wonder, and then you... then you got to see something really special... you really don't know?... it was... it was the look on their faces...
Alfred Borden: So... we go alone now. Both of us. Only I don't have as far to go as you. Go. You were right, I should have left him to his damn trick. I'm sorry. I'm sorry for a lot of things. I'm sorry about Sarah. I didn't mean to hurt her... I didn't. You go and live your life in full now, all right? You live for both of us.
Fallon: Goodbye.
Alfred Borden: The secret impresses no one. The trick you use it for is everything.
Nikola Tesla: Nothing is impossible, Mr. Angier. What you want is simply expensive
Nikola Tesla: You're familiar with the phrase "Man's reach exceeds his grasp"? It's a lie. Man's grasp exceeds his nerve. The only limits on scientific progress are those imposed by society. The first time I changed the world, I was hailed as a visionary. The second time I was asked politely to retire. The world only tolerates one change at a time. And so here I am. Enjoying my "retirement". Nothing is impossible, Mr. Angier, what you want is simply expensive.
Alfred Borden: He came in to demand an answer and I told him the truth. That I have fought with myself over that night, one half of me swearing blind that I tied a simple slipknot, the other half convinced that I tied the Langford double. I can never know for sure.
Nikola Tesla: I apologize for leaving without saying goodbye, but I seem to have outstayed my welcome in Colorado. The truly extraordinary is not permitted in science and industry. Perhaps you'll find more luck in your field, where people are happy to be mystified. You will find what you are looking for in this box. Alley has written you a thorough set of instructions. I add only one suggestion on using the machine: destroy it. Drop it to the bottom of the deepest ocean. Such a thing will bring you only misery.
Robert Angier
Man's reach exceeds his imagination!
If anybody really believed the things I did on stage, they wouldn't clap, they'd scream.
You never understood... why we did this. The audience knows the truth. The world is simple, miserable, solid all the way through. But if you can fool them, even for a second... then you can make them wonder. And you get to see something very special. ... You really don't know. ... It was the look on their faces.
Alfred Borden
Are you watching closely?
The secret impresses no one. The trick you use it for is everything.
The sacrifice... that's the price of a good trick.
Alfred Borden: Everything's going to be alright, because I love you very much.
Sarah: Say it again.
Alfred Borden: I love you.
Sarah: Not today.
Alfred Borden: What do you mean?
Sarah: Well some days it's not true. Maybe today you're more in love with magic. I like being able to tell the difference, it makes the days it is true mean something.
[after showing a little boy how to do a coin trick]
Alfred Borden: Never show anyone. They'll beg you and they'll flatter you for the secret, but as soon as you give it up... you'll be nothing to them.
Robert Angier: [to Borden] You always were the better magician. We both know that. Whatever your secret was, you have to agree, mine is better.
Olivia Wenscombe: You married her. You had a child with her.
Alfred Borden: Yes. Part of me did. But the other part... the other part didn't. The part that found you, the part that's sitting here right now.
Olivia Wenscombe: You could be in some other cafe saying the same thing about me right now. It's inhuman to be so cold.
Alfred Borden: I love you.
Sarah: You mean it today.
Alfred Borden: Of course.
Sarah: It just makes it so much harder when you don't.
Alfred Borden: A real magician tries to invent something new, that other magicians are gonna scratch their heads over.

Marshawn Lynch sits during national anthem at first pre-season game
Oakland Raiders running back Marshawn Lynch A.K.A Beastmode is back in his first pre-season game against the cardinals since his "retirement". Lynch has made headlines over the years for his little yet very large actions like back in 2015 during his super bowl media day interview when all the answers to any question was "I'm just here so I won't get fined."
This time Lynch is back in the spotlight again and has made yet another large statement by sitting down eating a banana during the national anthem. Raiders coach Jack Del Rio stated he didn't know that lynch was planning on not standing during the anthem. When Marshawn was asked about why he decided to sit during the anthem his response was "It's not a form of anything other than me being myself." Even though Marshawn was suited up on the sidelines of the game he never played, leaving us to wonder if he planned this the entire time due to what's going on in Charleston? Or if he just wanted to express how he felt about America in general? Coach Del Rio stated that he felt strongly about standing during the national anthem but he still respects lynch as a man, and his decisions, therefore to his coach Marshawn's actions wasn't much of a problem.
Is Marshawn considered a hero for this?

Sounders Insider
Reports say Philly to host 2012 MLS All-Star game
Seattle seems such a logical spot for the MLS All-Star game. The best support in the league, and a game played at the one time of the year where you can pretty much count on glorious weather.
And yet, the game went elsewhere in 2009. And 2010. And 2011. And now apparently in 2012, as the Philadelphia Union has scheduled a press conference for tomorrow when the club is expected to announce that it will host this season's game.
Last season, I had spoken to GM Adrian Hanauer about the Sounders' eagerness to host one of these and it sounded like something that will happen eventually, but not a burning issue with the club.

War And Peace star and author Adrian Edmondson: My six books
ADRIAN EDMONDSON, 60, is famous for his performances in The Young Ones and Bottom. He appeared in the recent BBC adaptation of War And Peace. His first children's book Tilly And The Time Machine is out now.
Adrian's first children's book Tilly And The Time Machine is out now
THE DIARY OF A NOBODY by George and Weedon Grossmith Penguin, £7.99 An incredibly funny book about Charles Pooter, a pompous idiot concerned with middle-class status in a way that I suppose we all are. I was put on to it in my late teens and I've dipped in and out ever since. Pooter was a role model for Rik Mayall's character in Bottom.
THE HISTORY MAN by Malcolm Bradbury Picador, £8.99 The book I've read most. It rings very true of tutors I had at university in the 70s. I recognise that conscious decision to be left-wing and revolutionary in a petty way. It's done here with a remarkable sense of humour.
BITS OF ME ARE FALLING APART by William Leith Out of print I adapted this into a one-man play last year. It's autobiographical and is really a hymn to the misunderstood middle-class white male. We probably don't deserve a voice but this seems to be one – and he's very witty.
SUMMONED BY BELLS by John Betjeman Out of print I've always found his poetry telling and this is an autobiography of his early life in verse. I went to a public school in Yorkshire and it reminded me of that. I don't know why we like reading things that resonate because I didn't really enjoy school.
WAR AND PEACE by Leo Tolstoy Vintage, £7.99 I've made jokes about War And Peace but it's really good.
When I got a part in it I read it in two different translations. I've never read anyone else, apart from Hardy, who can describe love as well as Tolstoy. You also get the history of Napoleon's foray into Russia.
THE LONDON ENCYCLOPAEDIA by Ben Weinreb et al Out of print
I photocopy pages of this and go for walks to match it up. I'm doing Soho at the moment. It's fascinating. It tells you who lived where and what it was before. For instance, Karl Marx lived in the "slums" that are now the Quo Vadis restaurant in Dean Street.

Abortion is one of the most emotionally fraught issues in American society, and public discussion often turns into an attack on the women who choose to exercise their constitutionally protected rights.
That is essentially what happened for years outside reproductive-health clinics in Massachusetts, where dozens of anti-abortion protesters have gathered since the late 1980s in an organized effort to stop women from getting abortions. Some held up signs or handed out leaflets, while others surrounded the arriving cars of doctors and patients or chained themselves together and physically blocked clinic entrances.
Eventually, protesters in support of abortion rights started showing up, and the two groups pushed and jockeyed for better position. As a result, women approaching the clinic had to endure a frenetic gauntlet of activists. Many were intimidated, and some chose to leave rather than confront the crowds. Police arrested some protesters for harassment and other violations but had trouble keeping the peace.
In response to this public-safety problem, Massachusetts passed a law in 2007 that created a 35-foot buffer zone around clinic entrances. Within the zone, which is the width of about two parking spaces and marked by a yellow line, only patients and clinic employees are permitted. Protesters — whether anti-abortion or pro-abortion rights — must stay behind the yellow line.
On Wednesday, in McCullen v. Coakley, the Supreme Court is scheduled to consider whether this law violates the protesters' free speech rights under the First Amendment. While that is the legal question before the court, the broader issue at stake is protecting women's access to abortion, which is under assault around the country by lawmakers and protesters alike.
The anti-abortion protesters who challenged the law argue that it improperly restricts speech based on content because it applies only at clinics where abortions are performed. They also say that it favors the voices of those who support abortion rights because it allows clinic workers inside the buffer zone.
Far from limiting speech, the law is a prime example of a state's power to protect public safety, even if it has incidental effects on some speech. The history of abortion protests in Massachusetts surely merits such a response. In addition to regular incidents of harassment and intimidation, in 1994 a man named John Salvi III went on a shooting spree in two clinics outside Boston, killing two employees and injuring five others.
Before the current law was enacted, Massachusetts legislators tried numerous other solutions, including a smaller, "floating" buffer zone — which set an 18-foot perimeter around clinic entrances and made it unlawful to approach within 6 feet of anyone in that zone, if done without the person's consent to engage "in oral protest, education or counseling."
The zone, modeled on a Colorado law that the Supreme Court upheld in 2000, quickly proved unworkable, as police struggled to play referee against protesters who violated the 6-foot limit. The fixed buffer zone came about after years of consultation with police officers and is the first law that has succeeded in keeping a clear path for women trying to get into the clinics (more than two-thirds of whom go to the clinics for health care appointments, not abortions).
The government may reasonably impose "time, place, and manner" restrictions on speech, provided that they are neutral as to content and allow other channels of communication. The Massachusetts law does both. It is aimed at certain clinics because that is where the public-safety risk exists. And anti-abortion protesters may still picket, hand out leaflets and speak freely to women outside the buffer zone. Eleanor McCullen, the lead plaintiff in the case, testified that while standing outside the zone she had personally persuaded more than 80 women not to go through with a planned abortion.
That is, of course, their choice. But the vast majority of women who do choose to end a pregnancy do not do so lightly, contrary to the condescending assumptions of anti-abortion activists and lawmakers. The Supreme Court should uphold this sensible law and allow women to make choices free from intimidation, harassment or worse.
