Moody Blues, by Stevie Moody Haston.
You wake up from the small death of sleep to a paleness, a greyer shade of light. Then it goes pink, quickly the sun, peach coloured, turns into a fierce, bright orange burning ball. So you seek the shade, the north facing cliffs.
Here in the caves, there is a limpid light. A mellow feel to the air, and you don't have to squint, but you are still tempted by the water. Sometimes calm, sometimes storm, there is always some energy.
The team the other day were not fierce warriors but soft folk looking for pleasant climbs, we found them of course. The tougher ones we avoided like the fierce sun.
Oceana (girls name) seconds Airo Rambler, a simply scrumptious 6b+ on rough pockets. Today I equipped two more routes, one will have to wait for the seasonal fluctuations in strength to aline, for verily it is steep. Need to earn some money, pay some bills, train, and have more fun and success.

I ordered a A3 rod reel combo on Saturday. Received a email on Sunday the reel was out of stock but I could upgrade to the A4. So after exchanging multiple emails with James that day, I chose to upgrade. He even threw in a extra dozen flies for free. Order shipped on Monday with expected delivery date of Friday. It showed up on Wednesday. Excellent customer service. I will be purchasing from them again soon.Christopher Austin, United States
What a rod!!!! This rod has some back bone to it wow!!! My A4 2piece 6wt 9ft is one of the best rods I have had in my hands for over forty five years. The line just flows out--I have been making longer casts than I would normally do, like casting an average of 55-60ft and this was all afternoon-- no fatigue. And accurate--I am so pleased with this rod--I will be getting another one. Not bad for a trout rod!!!! I don't trout fish anymore and the small mouths are in deep trouble with this stick. Oh the line shoots out like a 22 rifle fast and accurate very accurate. Christopher M Austin Pike County PA.Bill Smith (Colorado)
WOW Fantastic flies!! What super quality and attention to detail. I can't wait to go out fishing next. Appreciate the free flies included in the pack, I have passed on to a friend of mine who will probably be your next customer!Ian Jones
Just to say my fly rod delivery was the fastest delivery I have ever received - Less than 23 hours! I just hope to catch trout as fast as that, many thanks Ian.

ALGIERS (Reuters) - Thirty hostages, including at least seven foreigners, were killed on Thursday when Algerian forces stormed a desert gas plant seized by Islamist militants, an Algerian security source said.
He told Reuters that among the dead hostages were eight Algerians, two Japanese, two Britons and one French national. The nationalities of the other dead were not clear.

We went to see my nan today and i gave her the biscornu i stitched for her and she absolutely loves it. She's put on display in the front room so people will see it. As i said in the post below, i wanted to stitch another one but for myself, well i started one today and i've almost finished the first side. I should have it done within the next day or 2,(Fingers crossed). I will put up pictures here once i've finished my biscornu and knowing me i'll most likely start another one, LOL. So watch this space!
As some of you may know i have got a operation on my head on the 21st May. I'm so glad to get it out of the way. I'm hoping to get loads of stitching done between now and the 20th when i go into hospital. I'm also hoping to be able to stitch once i get home.(Fingers crossed).

Discussion > Latest Hockey Stick
golfCharlie. O-nigiri from street stalls and shops in San Francisco's Japantown in 1980s were triangular (sometimes cylindrical) and hand-made - sometimes on demand, and never from a machine. You chose the filling and whether or not it was going to be wrapped in seaweed. The same goes with suchi - always handmade, except in supermarkets.
Anyway climateball probably not played in Japan, much too polite.
Mass manufacturing of Onigiri from Wikipedia
"It was believed that onigiri could not be mass-produced as the hand-rolling technique was considered too difficult for a machine to replicate. In the 1980s, however, a machine that made triangular onigiri was devised. This was initially met with skepticism because, rather than having the filling traditionally rolled inside, the flavoring was simply put into a hole in the onigiri and the hole was hidden by nori. Since the onigiri made by this machine came with nori already applied to the rice ball, over time the nori became unpleasantly moist and sticky, clinging to the rice."
AK, I have no idea whether they were designed in the USA for traditional Californian Japanese cuisine, a bit like the traditional British Brum Balti Curry
golfCharlie. I doubt very much if most of the Japanese food available in Japantown was popular. Much of it was incredibly salty and would only appeal to Americans of Japanese descent or Japanese visitors.
In contrast, and like your Brum Balti, my kids loved to eat at the "Japanese" Ichiban steakhouse, which was as Japanese as downtown Moose Jaw. Essentially stirfry vegetables and a meat cooked in front of you on a sizzling hotplate by a Korean(?) dressed up and flourishing (even juggling) his cooking utensils and huge pepper and salt grinders. During a visit to Winnipeg my kids wanted to eat there every night, but anywhere else they would turn their noses up at so much vegetables. The power of presentation - just like climate science, you can sell any old crap.
AK 6:47, it takes a lot of Balls to keep selling Green Crap in the current phase of unchanging climate.
golfCharlie. Who argues the climate is unchanging? Maybe (!!!!) the rise in global temperature (whatever that is) has paused, but regional climates across the world still change, some becoming drier, some wetter, some cooler, some warmer, some affected by human activities, most not. If CO2 increases have an effect, it is swamped by others much more powerful to which humans can only adapt, never control.
AK, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, but...........
does this changing climate thingy alter the supply and demand for Rice Balls, whether Hand Made, Machine Made, or Computer Generated, and their ability to stick in the throat and choke people?
golfCharlie. "Computer generated rice balls". Are they now using 3D printers? Golly, you could order clockwise or anticlockwise mobius strip o-nigiri. Or even klein bottle o-nigrini, but don't expect those to hold saki.
Perhaps climate science papers could be printed on mobius strips made of rice paper. Rubbish with no beginning or end and forever one sided! Mobius science.
AK I think it is to do with the graphics and animated handwaving.
As Steve McIntyre pointed out, Gergis 2012 was included in IPCC AR5, even though it was known to be incorrect. So Gergis 2016 had to 'stick', even though it hasn't.
As Gergis 2016 was to be the latest paper to confirm Mann's Hockey Stick, it may now be concluded that Mann's Hockey Stick is confirmed to be Climate Balls. It is clear why proponents of Climateball wanted to focus on McIntyre's motives for questioning Gergis.
Climateball is best played single handed by dedicated professionals,
As Steve McIntyre pointed out, Gergis 2012 was included in IPCC AR5, even though it was known to be incorrect.
Phil Clarke. Yes Indeed. Seems to be the conclusion of all about Gergis.
"Actually, it is the Gergis Australia study, Joelle and her team have corrected the various issue and resubmitted the study and it has been reviewed and accepted, in the face of the usual denier unpleasantness.
Add it to the list.
Jul 11, 2016 at 10:46 PM | Phil Clarke"
I think we are entering the Snarknado season.
Gergis 2012 was included in IPCC AR5
Still bollocks.
golfCharlie, more likely the season of Frankenstein's creation - bits cobbled together from all over, poorly stitched together, and needing a jolt from the IPPC to give it life.
Phil Clarke. Would you care to expand your somewhat scatological reposts to a claim that elements of Gergis 2012 were not incorporated into IPCC AR5?
My recollection is that the paper was cited in the report but it wasn't used.
I was wrong, the First Order Draft cited Gergis et al and it was used by the IPCC, in the Second Order Draft it was used by the IPCC but cited as PAGES 2K Consortium, of which Gergis is a member.
So the Balls (= bollocks) have it, by a technicality. Is PAGES 2K Consortium a peer-reviewed paper, and how does it differ from Gergis 2012 (which clearly is not)?
GC, who is fond of accusing climate scientists of making false claims, asserts that the withdrawn Gergis et al 2012 paper was included in IPCC AR5.
This is an untrue statement.
Ok, ok. I should have done my homework, but where did the Australasian data come from in PAGES 2K? I also notice a significant discrepancy in the North American data.
Phil Clarke. Technically you win on points, but it would appear that the conclusions in Gergis 2012, with all their faults, were simply reproduced in PAGES 2K, and that was used in AR5. Your "bollocks" are awfully small, was it worth winning?
I note that the PAGES 2013 reference list contains no obvious reference to Australasian data, and that although there are several later online corrections, none refer to the Australasian reconstruction. Interesting.
Phil Clarke, from the moment you started this thread with false claims, about a paper with false claims, with false claims made by expert climate science peer reviewers, everything has become so much more clear. Thank you.
Why are you getting upset now? How did you think it would all wash out?
Phil Clarke, any chance of a correction from you?
it would appear that the conclusions in Gergis 2012, with all their faults, were simply reproduced in PAGES 2K, and that was used in AR5. I note that the PAGES 2013 reference list contains no obvious reference to Australasian data, and that although there are several later online corrections, none refer to the Australasian reconstruction. Interesting.
More bollocks. The Aussie data is referenced in the SI - Fig S13.
And is sourced from Neukom, R. & Gergis, J. Southern Hemisphere high-resolution palaeoclimate records of the last 2000 years. The Holocene 22, 501-524 (2012). which is not Evidence of unusual late 20th century warming from an Australasian temperature reconstruction spanning the last millennium aka Gergis 2012 which had the detrending issues that got everyone so excited.
Anyone around here interested in being correct?
Phil Clarke, Bollocks yourself, your rudeness. I wrote "reference list contained no obvious reference to AUSTRALASIAN data" you come up with Neukom and Gergis 2011, which concerns southern continent reconstructions, not specifically Australasia.
Most interesting was when I was looking up (google) the PAGES 2k reference I encountered the manucript of the paper (which in a matter of 40 minutes has since disappeared). The published paper gives as reference 39 the Neukom and Gergis 2012 paper, however in the manuscript originally submitted reference 39 was given as Gergis et al (in revision). In the same time interval a non paywalled version of the paper has taken its place. Nefarious goings on? I wonder if Nature Geoscence has retained a copy of the original manuscript.
I am indeed very interested in the truth, and the truth gets stranger every day.
AK, Climate Science's recorded history is changeable, and it's projections are retractable, but mistakes are never admissible.
If only climate science could be as reliable as British weather.

I Will Not Be Controlled
by James Farganne
From somewhere in the Power Grid,
I shout a statement bold
As it is terse and lucid:
I will not be controlled.
I will not say I've seen the light.
The light was always there.
I will not say I've won a fight
With forces thin as air,
For I was always free. Only
Illusions had me sold.
Awake intention is the key:
I will not be controlled.
Not by the clock, nor by the cent,
Nor by the data stream,
That oceanic current
Drowning us in one vast dream
Of time-bound, earthly "value"
Locked in data bits, in gold.
The only raft that's tried and true?
"I will not be controlled."
Not by the crafted tastes and lusts,
The fashions of today;
Not by foundations, think tanks, trusts,
Not by the CIA,
Not by phantasmagoric sleights
Of hidden, occult hand,
Not by tricks to "reclaim my rights"–
I do not "understand"
Such busy schemes. I won't conform
To any legal mind.
Even the "freeman" is a norm.
I will not be defined.
I will fill no conceptual mold.
I will not be controlled.
Not by a market pixel blip.
Not by induced brainwaves.
Not by a meter or a chip.
Only intention saves.
They think "mind has no firewall"?
In this they are deceived.
The one who stands in spirit tall
Through prayer is soon relieved.
I'll keep my spirit wild,
Only tamed by What Made Me.
I won't be charmed or styled
By the lisping Enemy,
Whose dark, inverted "freedom"
Chains the mind, shackles the soul.
Here in my Father's kingdom,
It has no such control.
I will not be controlled by it
Or any other thing.
So though a slave by crooked writ,
In Truth, I am a king,
Bound only by eternal Law.
The codes be burnt in hell
Where their oath-bound purveyors
Shall one day surely dwell.
The Grid grows ever stronger.
But despite its strangling hold,
I am a slave no longer,
For I will not be controlled.

The Post's full-run special report comes five days before the Sept. 24 deadline set by the Unabomber for the Post and/or The New York Times to publish his full manifesto, or he would kill again. The Post alone will publish the manifesto, although The Times reportedly is paying half the cost of publication.
The Post and the Times decided over the weekend to publish the manifesto after conversations last week with U.S. Attorney General Janet Reno and FBI Director Louis Freeh. The newspapers made this decision ``under the threat of violence,'' according to Post owner Katherine Graham and Times Publisher Arthur O. Sulzberger Jr. The Post was chosen to publish the manifesto due to its technological capability to get the full manuscript into all editions. Internal estimates put the cost of running the treatise as high as $40,000.
In this week's edition of Ad Age, a high-ranking source at the Times said: ``We are going to work together on this.''
On Aug. 2 the Times published what it deemed ``newsworthy'' excerpts from the 35,000-word manuscript. At that time published reports reiterated that the Unabomber had given the Times and/or the Post until Sept. 24 to agree to publish the full manifesto. The Unabomber, who has killed three persons and maimed several others, said he would resume his bomb attacks if that demand was not met.
Meanwhile, there were indications that the unprecedented FBI manhunt for the Unabomber was focusing on several prime suspects.
``The FBI has had several prime suspects under around-the-clock survaillance for several weeks now,'' a source close to the investigation told Ad Age.

Showcase Sunday is a weekly meme hosted by Vicky @ Books, Biscuits & Tea
It's a way to share what we got in our mailboxes :)
This was such a great book week! I usually don't get many paperback books, if any at all, but the past two weeks I not only got an awesome package from a friend, but I also went to the mall, had just gotten payed, and basically went crazy! I had wanted to make a video, but the problem is, I am in Kuwait right now and have only 2 of the books I got with me, so I'm afraid I'll have to settle with photos and stuff. I can try to make a video when I come back.
Ok, so what I got in the mail this week:
I had won a copy of Cold Kiss a while back, but never noticed it was a US only giveaway and so a friend had received it for me. She then prepared a package for me, where I was sent another book as well 'Darkening Dream' from another giveaway and some poptarts (I've always wanted to know what they tasted like) and a bunch of friendship bracelets. This is a photo of my kitten next to the book (Harper Teen was asking for photos with their books and pets so I took this whilst Ari was sleeping).
*Yes, I know I have a weird taste in books*
Now to my usual ebook part of things:
NetGalley Books:
Valentina Goldman's Immaculate Confusion - Marisol Murano
Etiquette for the End of the World - Jeanne Martinet
Magic in His Kiss - Shari Anton
Between The Sheets - Robin Wells
Ripe For Seduction - Isobel Carr
Two Sinful Secrets - Laurel Mckee
Lady's Choice - Amanda Scott
Sleeping with Dogs and Other Lovers - Julia Dumont
One Pink Line - Dina Silver
As for books I got for review or book tours:
Taste - Kate Evangelista
Twenty-Eight and a Half Wishes - Denise Grove Swank
Telesa (The Covenant Keeper) - Lani Wendt Young
Racing With The Wind - Regan Walker
A Healing Heart - Melissa A. Hanson
Lara & the City of Angels - Elle Chardou
Clutch - J.A. Huss
Resurrection - A.M. Hargrove
I wanted to post some of the Amazon Freebies I'd gotten this week, but I think this is enough for now.
Tell me what you got this week?

How to bet on Rugby
The sport of rugby has continued to grow and develop rapidly since it was declared a professional sport in 1995. The sport has grown thanks to worldwide media coverage which appeals to all sports lovers alike. This in turn has led to bigger budgets available for the clubs due to money generated from T.V rights. Recently clubs and national sides have become more competitive due to new innovations in the sport. Backroom staff and analysts have become a major part of the game, therefore games are becoming more exciting and this creates a better betting environment for all involved.
Rugby is a sport that is constantly on the go. Players rarely get a chance to breathe. Between club games in the national leagues, club games in Europe and international tournaments, there is always an opportunity to bet.
Aviva Premiership : The English premier League is made up for 12 teams. The league starts in September and ends in May. After all 22 rounds of matches have been completed, the top 4 sides qualify for the semi-finals. After each winner has been determined they go onto face each other in the Grand Final, always staged at the home of English rugby, Twickenham. This is the biggest event in the English rugby calendar and there is never an empty seat in the house.
Top14 : In recent times the the Top 14 league has become very competitive and attractive to the neutrals. France have always had a strong national league which has paved the way for young native players to burst onto the scene with their club. That's why for years they were a power house in world rugby. Things have changed drastically in the past few years. Massive investment from abroad has seen an influx of some of the worlds best players, from the Southern Hemisphere in particular. Stars such as Dan Carter, Ma'a Nonu, Bryan Habana and Quade Cooper have joined clubs in the Top 14.
European Rugby Champions Cup : Previously called the Heineken Cup, it is the most prestigious in European rugby. Here you will find the best clubs from Ireland, England, Scotland, Wales, Italy and France. The competition runs from October to May, divided into 5 groups of 4 teams. Irish, English and French clubs have all historically done well in this competition. Toulouse have the most victories (4), while Leinster and Toulon have won 3. Toulon having won the last 3 in a row.
European Rugby Challenge Cup : This is the second tier of the European competition. Clubs that finish from 4th to 6th in their respective leagues qualify for the group stages. This Cup follows the same structure as the Champions Cup in regards to the quarter final layout. These games are played on the same weekends as the champions cup.
6 Nations : With the first competition taking place in 1882, it was originally called the "5 Nations". Italy joined in 2000 following in the footsteps of England, Ireland, France, Scotland and Wales. It is known as 'Rugby's greatest championship' because of the sheer quality and drama it brings every year. The team who wins all 5 games wins the "Grand Slam". If two teams end up on the same points, it goes down to points differential. The last two 6 Nations championships have gone down to points differentials (Ireland winning both). Wales have won the competition 37 times, the most of any nation.
The Rugby World Cup : There is no competition more prestigious than The Rugby World Cup. This famous competition runs every four years and it is between the top 16 teams in the world. New Zealand have won it the most times (3) and have won the previous two tournaments. The next tournament will be held in Japan in 2019.
PRO 12: The PRO 12 is made up for 12 teams from Ireland, Scotland, Wales and Italy. Irish teams have dominated in recent years but the improvements made by the Opsreys, Glasgow Warriors and the Llanelli Scarlets in the past few means it has become far more competitive. Very similar to the Premiership and Top 14, the top 4 face off in the semi-finals with the winners playing each other in the final.
Super Rugby : Founded in 1986, formerly known as Super 15, this international event brings together 18 teams from across Argentina, Australia, South Africa, Japan and New Zealand. The tournament takes place from February to August and includes a first group stage followed by a final knockout phase. This competition is probably the most eye catching and entertaining out of all the club rugby tournaments. With flair, speed and incredible individual tries Super Rugby is host to the crier of the crop of attacking talent. The Crusaders from New Zealand are the most successful team in the tournament's history with 7 trophies.
The Rugby Championship : Formerly called Tri-Nations, the international tournament was renamed in 2011 with the arrival of Argentina. It is now made up of four teams, including South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. Considered by experts as one of the toughest international competitions around, New Zealand have won the title no fewer than 13 times, including 6 by winning every match.
Rugby Sevens : Rugby sevens is played with the same rules as Rugby Union except there are only 7 players-a-side. The competition, a native of Scotland, the discipline has largely developed in Anglo-Saxon countries (South Africa, New Zealand, Australia and the United Kingdom). In 2009 sevens became an Olympic sport and will be included in the Olympic Games Rio 2016 program. New Zealand are reigning World Champions and plan to bring a star studded squad including Sonny Bill Williams and Ardie Savea.
Like in any sport, there are plenty of factors to take into account when looking up a match. So here are some to consider before placing a bet:
Venue : Home advantage is extremely important in rugby, a lot more so than in football. Players are often galvanised by their home support and respond in kind. Players often feel a sense of injustice if they are beaten at home. It's as if they have let their club and fans down. French teams in particular are extremely good at home. Toulon and Toulouse both boasting incredible home records. This can clearly be seen when looking at the odds on any given rugby match. The home team will often be given quite short odds. If that is the case maybe betting on the margin of victory is a better idea. Applying a handicap will always lengthen the odds.
The weather : The weather can have a massive effect on a rugby match. If it starts to rain, handling errors become a lot more common. Teams will be reluctant to go wide and move the ball quickly through the hands. A team with a good fly-half will be able to adapt to changing conditions. A number 10 should be able to manage a game and make important calls like a kick to the corner or a rubber kick to mix things up and keep the opposition guessing.
Tiredness/Injuries: Rugby is an incredibly physical sport, with many current doctors saying the injuries they are seeing are those similar to ones from car accidents. The strain put on the body is considerable. With players playing every week injuries are a regular occurence. This is where a large squad is essential. If Leigh Halfpenny gets injuried, for instance, Toulon know that Drew Mitchell or Delon Armitage can slot in. A bettor will need to know if there are any injuries before placing a bet.
International meetings: Unlike football international matches are frequently held on the same weekend as a league game. This forces coaches to used some of the squad players, if players of the first team are away on international duty.
A derby : When it comes to an intense derby, form goes out of the window. Players will often rise to the occasion and pull a performance out of the bag. Winning a derby can be as simple as putting in a massive hit in the opening minutes to motivate the crowd and team. Momentum is huge in derbies. If your team is on top and can capitalise on the dominance, that is crucial. Betting on a derby can be tough, but in-play betting is probably the way to go. As you watch the game one can get a sense of how it is going to end up.

So the biggest news in publishing today, despite the doldrums encountered between miniscule paychecks, and, well, that huge explosion/water main break near the new Grand Central Publishing Offices (good luck getting to work tomorrow) is the online pirated release of the final Harry Potter on Bit Torrent and other such sites as reported by Buzzfeed not the least of which is the impending lawsuit from Scholastic against the web hosts. Dear lord, they might lose thousands of dollars because of this. Come on, really, are you going to read all 900 plus pages on your computer or print them out at work? Besides, if you're not toting the new book, letting everyone see you read it on the subway, who's really going to try and pick you up. Evidently, the woman who is almost richer than god, or at least the queen of England, has posted a rebuttle on her journal. But really, trying to protect readers from spoilers is like telling someone who always reads the last chapter first to take a chill pill. Those who want to be suprised will be. Those who want to know, will find a way.
If you want to know, click here. My favorite spoiler of everyone who dies is preficed by a LOL. Now, that's something to laugh about.
And in an improbable segue bringing everything back to the title of this post, Gabe Kaplan, king to what was once the 4th Largest City in America, has a new book out about the crazy correspondences he's had over the years. Take that hipsters!

Guardian headphones help protect hearing
by Edwin
This pair of Guardian headphones from Hamilton Electronics help outsiders identify whether listeners are adhering to save volume levels or not, courtesy of the green and red LED lights located outside. Whenever the LED lights up in red, that means volume levels are cranked way higher than they should be. It is best to instill this habit in kids to protect their hearing, but surely a little outside help won't hurt. Each pair of Guardian headphones retail for $39.95.

At the beginning of 2014, three recordings were released - my new four track EP, Lord Of Misrule, a remastered edition of my very first EP, Blue Feathers, and the Resonance Project EP, Tale Goes On. Lord Of Misrule was basically released because I had four unreleased tracks lying around and wasn't too sure what my musical future entailed. I was settling in to my new role as full-time carer for Donna and her mother, and there was no way of knowing how much of my time was going to be needed to properly discharge my duties. A digital release was a simple and fun way to put some music out without having to spend time and money on pressing CDs and going through the rigmarole of promoting the product, and I was aware of the fact that without promotion, the EP would go largely unnoticed. I was cool with that - it was just nice to write and record again.
I spent 2014 playing occasional gigs with an AC/DC tribute band called Hells Bells, which was a lot of fun and brought in some much-needed funds to the household. It was fascinating to get inside the guitar work of the Young Brothers, and I found some interesting things in their approach that got me playing some new stuff. I also wrote some music in the stripped down, straight ahead style of AC/DC, and Donna came on board with a rocking lyric. We ducked into the studio, and a song was born. This song would raise its head later, at just the right time.
While I had no projects I had to prepare or rehearse for, I turned my hand to experimenting with different styles and ideas in the studio. I found it therapeutic to sit and play whatever came to mind or fingers, and I wound up with enough ideas to piece together arrangements and record them when I felt so inclined. Some ideas sat for a while before being completed, and I found some old demos that sparked new ideas as well. I finally wrote and recorded a Blues instrumental - a long-time goal - and got into messing around with horn and string arrangements. That led me back to revisiting classical music (my first ever vinyl owned was Beethoven) and the effects it had on my development. Borrowing some extra Ormsby guitars added fuel to the fire, as I always get an idea when I meet a new guitar, and before too long I was looking at a mixed bag of tracks that happened to have some fine compositions and performances on them. I had jumped into writing and playing with no preconceptions whatsoever of what direction I would head in, instead choosing to follow ideas and feelings wherever they went. This lead to me actually putting a lot of myself into the music - all the frustration, hope, fear, joy, resignation, anger and love that had swirled around me during the past months found a place to flow, and it flowed into the tunes.
I had pressed a short run of an extended version of Lord Of Misrule with six tracks, to sell at Hells Bells gigs. With my exit from the band due to an ear injury, I no longer had a place to sell the EP with the extra two tracks. I had written new music in the interim, and was sitting on ten tracks. Ten tracks... hmmm... oh, wait... there's that song we did. Listening back to it, it's a pretty good song...
That makes eleven.
Might as well, then, eh?
Since 2015 marks ten years of my association with Perry Ormsby and Ormsby Guitars, I have written a few words about the guitars I used in the writing and recording of the new album. Stay tuned, because I'll be posting it here, one guitar at a time.
Oh, one last thing... we are coming up to two years since Donna's diagnosis with MS, and while we have faced some bad days, her condition has remained more or less stable, with no progression on the lesions detected in the MRI scans. Our heartfelt thanks to those who have given their support, and while we may not be traipsing around the world any time soon, there is still plenty of music left in both of us.

There's been a lot of buzz lately around a book by Benjamin R. Barber called "If Mayors Ruled the World: Dysfunctional Nations, Rising Cities". The discussion focuses on whether the skills that make big city mayors good at their jobs might be applied to running larger organizations, like state and federal governments. After all, many large urban centers are now models of good management and bipartisanship.
But, in a recent discussion on the Freakonomics Radio podcast, an important point was made that might have a real impact for teachers. Several experts, some of them current mayors, pointed out that much of the success that these city leaders have had is unique to their position. As the most tangible arm of the government for most citizens, mayors are forced to find practical ways to solve problems. They can't afford to be political or partisan because, as Fiorello La Guardia once said, "there is no Republican or Democrat way of cleaning the streets." They cross party lines and make compromises as a regular part of their work.
This pragmatic problem-solving ability might be appealing to those of us exhausted by years of partisan gridlock in Washington, but it's not the answer. Research has shown that the freedom to be nonpartisan and focused on the day-to-day problems of their constituents comes from a lack of responsibility for the really big (often bureaucratic) picture, including policy making and economic woes. In other words, the success of mayors comes directly from the limited scope of their powers and responsibilities. Might the same be true of teachers?
We spend years developing skills that mirror that of a mayor in many ways. We learn practical ways to help students reach mastery, sometimes ignoring the "initiative of the week". We cobble together strategies for engaging kids and for assessing them, sometimes skirting policies and bending rules to get the best outcomes for our students.
This idea got me thinking about teachers who leave the classroom to pursue jobs that are very different from classroom teaching, like principalships, and district leadership positions. I've written here before about the rarity of school principals who are truly skilled teachers. Now, it seems there might be a good reason for this pattern. Perhaps, the very abilities that make someone an excellent teacher would also make him a poor administrator, and vice versa.
In the words of Benjamin R. Barber, "mayors are experts at implementation" and policy makers are not. I think that the same can be said about classroom teachers. While many school systems hold up principals as "instructional leaders", maybe we need to create a separation between the managerial responsibilities of principals and the instructional ones. Perhaps a hybrid teaching position could provide instructional leadership while a more traditional administrator handles the less academic decision-making.
What do you think? Do good teachers make good administrators? Why or why not?

Official Statistics
Income-related benefits: estimates of take-up: financial year 2009/10
Estimates of take-up of income-related benefits for Great Britain for the financial year 2009/10.
The National Statistics First Release contains a digest of important results taken from the publication Income-related benefits: estimates of take-up 2009 to 2010 published 23 February 2012.
Latest estimates of take-up of income-related benefits cover Great Britain for the financial year 2009 to 2010. The report provides caseload and expenditure estimates of take-up and includes estimates of the total and average amounts of benefit claimed and unclaimed for:
- Income Support and Employment and Support Allowance (income-related)
- Pension Credit
- Housing Benefit (including Local Housing Allowance)
- Council Tax Benefit
- Jobseeker's Allowance (Income-Based)
The publication explores some of the reasons for non-take-up and includes the position of those entitled to but not receiving benefits in the household income distribution – as defined by the Households Below Average Income series. The final section of each benefit chapter focuses on caseload take-up over time.
The main data sources used to produce estimates of take-up are the Family Resources Survey, used to model the population in private households entitled to income-related benefits; and the DWP and local authority benefit records data – the basis of the Work and Pensions Longitudinal Study and the DWP Statistical Summaries – providing the counts of benefit recipients and typical amounts received.
Full details of the methods, data sources and a worked example of how take-up statistics are derived are available in Chapter 8: Methods and Data Sources and the Appendix: Construction of take-up ranges
Changes to the modelling that underpins income-related benefits: estimates of take-up
The approach to modelling income-related benefit entitlement for Family Resources Survey respondents has been improved for the 2009 to 2010 publication. Figures have been revised for 2007 to 2008 and 2008 to 2009 using this new approach. It's these revised statistics that are used in the 2009 to 2010 publication and should take precedence over previously published results. Details of the improvement can be found in the technical note below and Chapter 7: Revisions in the latest report.
This technical note was first published in October 2011. The documents below contain updated figures following improvements made to the methodology.
Technical note on changes to the modelling that underpins 'Income-related benefits estimates on take-up'
Technical note on changes to the modelling that underpins 'Income-related benefits estimates on take-up': annex
UK Statistics Authority assessment
In the latter half of 2011, as part of its statutory power to assess sets of statistics against the Code of Practice for Official Statistics, the UK Statistics Authority conducted a review of several associated statistical products produced by DWP, which included 'Income-related benefits: estimates of take-up'.
The report concluded that the statistical products assessed, including 'Income-related benefits: estimates of take-up', were readily accessible, produced according to sound methods and managed impartially and objectively in the public interest. As such they could continue to be designated as National Statistics, subject to the implementation of four requirements raised in the report. Work to meet these requirements is being taken forward to meet UK Statistics Authority deadlines.
The assessment report was published in December 2011.
Full UK Statistics Authority report
Income-related benefits: estimates of take-up technical annex
A suggestion arising from the UK Statistics Authority assessment of the 'Income-related benefits: estimates of take-up' report focussed on the improvement of information available about the methods used in the compilation of the statistics. Full details of the methods, data sources and a worked example of how take-up statistics are derived are available in Chapter 8: methods and data Sources and the Appendix: construction of take-up ranges
To support the information in the publication is a technical annex providing detail of the variables and formulas used in the derivation of the take-up estimates. This document is recommended for specialist users wanting in-depth details of the methodology and should be used in conjunction with the methodology chapter in the publication.

The Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging (CCNi) represents an interdisciplinary effort to advance the understanding of the complex relationship between the brain, cognition and behaviour at multiple levels of analysis. It brings together researchers with an interest in cognitive neuroscience, functional neuroimaging, neuropsychology and computational modelling. The CCNi aims at developing new methods to further understand brain mechanisms and train interdisciplinary scientists in the use of those methods and techniques. The main research strength of CCNi lies in the application of non-invasive multimodal brain imaging using fMRI, MEG, TMS and EEG. These techniques are used together with sophisticated analysis methods (some of which are developed in our Centre) to study the functioning of the human brain with a particular focus on the dynamics of visual perception (particularly faces) and attention, the functional role of brain oscillations, interactions in brain networks, auditory processing (particularly voices) and predictive coding.
Main research strengths
- Multi-dimensional measurements of brain functions (fMRI, MEG, TMS, EEG)
- Development of sophisticated analysis techniques
- Investigation of brain oscillations
- Interactions in complex brain networks
- Dynamic analysis (EEG, MEG) and on-line testing (TMS) of cortical models of information processing
- Dynamics of visual perception (particularly faces), attention, memory and language processing
- Auditory processing (particularly voices)
- Predictive coding; neural code

Last week, the House of Representatives passed The Digital Accountability and Transparency Act – aka the DATA Act. This act is the most important federal financial transparency bill since 1967's Freedom of Information Act.
Basically, it's XBRL for DC… government-wide standardization and publishing of federal spending data.
How this may help us here in the corporate XBRL world:
It further socializes the entire concept of XBRL – standardized financial data reporting. The more people who understand this value will only help "end-user" consumption of the big data already produced by public companies.
Adoption is the missing link for XBRL.
We can also speculate that may of the tags that corporations use now to report could be used for the DATA Act cross-over, particularly if you are a government contractor. Could this be a selling point FOR your company? All your financials will move to XBRL – not just the current "earnings" silo.
Until then, our task remains the same. Accurate XBRL reporting. Reasonable XBRL fees that match your workflow. What is your workflow?
Happy Thanksgiving!

Museum's New Building to Honor Ada Blanche Wrigley Schreiner
Catalina Island Museum
The Catalina Island Museum announced recently that its Board of Trustees had voted unanimously to name its future building after the late Ada Blanche Wrigley Schreiner.
Known simply as "Blanny" to her family and many friends in the Avalon community, Schreiner was a member of the Catalina Island Board of Trustees before her death in December of 2010. She was the granddaughter of William Wrigley, Jr. and the daughter of Philip K. Wrigley, a leading member of the museum and greatly responsible for its founding in 1953.
Steve Schreiner, who is the son of Ms. Schreiner and the current Chair of the museum's Capital Campaign stated: "Mom, who rarely if ever sought attention for herself, would be truly honored to have the new Catalina Island Museum building named after her. Catalina Island was her favorite place on the planet, and she remained involved in the museum as a board member until her passing."
"Blanny was a steadfast supporter of the Catalina Island Museum," Dr. Michael De Marsche, Executive Director of the museum recently stated. "She possessed an indomitable spirit. Her generosity extended over a period of many years, often providing critical support that sustained museum operations. Her dream was the construction of a building that could provide a permanent home to the museum and be sustainable. We're reaching those goals quickly, and it would have been impossible without Blanny. Naming the building after her not only honors her memory but will always remind us of the enormous debt we owe this remarkable woman."
The museum has rented its present facility in the Avalon Casino since it's founding, and, according to De Marsche, plans for the museum's first permanent home are progressing steadily.
"Architectural plans for the new building have been approved by the city," stated De Marsche. "We are about to solicit construction bids during the coming weeks. It's quite possible that construction on the building will begin before this summer."
Designed by the architectural firm of Marengo Morton Architects of La Jolla, CA, the construction of the Ada Blanche Wrigley Schreiner Building will expand the present museum's space by over 8,000 square feet. It is the most significant building project on Santa Catalina since William Wrigley, Jr. built the Avalon Casino in 1929. Exhibition space will more than double with spaces dedicated to plein air painting, Catalina Island history and special exhibitions traveling to the museum from around the world. Amenities in the new building will include a spacious entrance lobby and visitor center, a digital theater, an atrium and sculpture garden, an expansive museum store, rooftop gardens, and a vault area dedicated to staff offices, storage and research. The museum is currently engaged in the quiet phase of a capital campaign that has raised over $6 million of the $9 million needed to construct the museum's new building.
The Catalina Island Museum is Avalon's sole institution devoted to art, culture and the rich history of Santa Catalina Island. It is located on the ground floor of Avalon's historic Casino, and is open 7 days a week, from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. For more information, the museum may be reached by phone at 310-510-2414 or at its website.

Date: 03/01/1999
Writer: D'Lyn Ford
LAS CRUCES -- After a death, dividing up personal possessions is never easy. But making a will now can ensure that family members are financially secure and help reduce stress, said a New Mexico State University consumer education specialist.
"A will allows you to specify your exact wishes for the assets you will leave behind, regardless of the size of your estate," said Susan Wright with NMSU's Cooperative Extension Service. "Think about the impact your desires will have on your family and those you love."
Creating a will takes the burden off surviving family and helps prevent conflicts over a prized heirloom like grandmother's wedding ring, she said.
Wills can provide financially for the surviving spouse and dependent children in case of unexpected events, Wright said. Without a will, all property goes to the surviving spouse unless there are children. If so, one-fourth of any separately held property goes to the surviving spouse and the rest is divided equally among the children. Writing a will, however, allows people to make their preferences known.
Wills also can designate guardianship and other provisions to guarantee children's rights. If a person has never married or had children, the estate usually passes to parents and then to siblings in the event that there's no will.
"When starting a will, carefully inventory your estate to determine your resources," Wright said. " Make a detailed listing of all you wish to leave and to whom. The recipients of non-titled items with little monetary value but a lot of sentimental value can be designated with a letter of directions."
A will may be drawn up by an attorney, written using a self-help guide, or a simple form purchased from a local office supply or stationery store that is notarized after completion, she said.
"Once the will is completed, review it on a regular basis to make necessary revisions and additions," Wright said. "Keep it in a safe place, such as with an attorney, trusted friend or family member. Also, If you move to another state, make sure the will complies with the laws of that state."
A trust is another method for disbursing assets and can accomplish the same goals if well planned and managed, she said. Consultation with a competent attorney will help ensure the right decisions are made.

The Too-Thin Look Is Out In Paris
The document, backed by the Health Ministry, asks signatories to work toward "a diversity of body representations" and "not to show images of people that could help promote a model of extreme thinness."
The international fashion industry has drawn criticism for stressing the super-thin look. Concerns about anorexia have grown in France - and around the world - since the reportedly anorexia-related deaths of several South American models in 2006, including Brazilian Ana Carolina Reston.
Guidelines have been in place in France since the 1980s to regulate French modeling agencies, including mandatory medical visits for models under 16.
The nonbinding charter was signed by groups including the French Couture Federation, the French Federation for Women's Pret-a-Porter and the Union of Modeling Agencies, as well as some representatives of advertising and media.
Officials in other countries have taken much more dramatic measures to promote healthy body images. The Madrid fashion show bans women whose body mass-to-height ratio is below 18, while Milan bans models below 18.5.
However, another much tougher, and more contested, measure against eating disorders is to go before France's parliament this month.
Valerie Boyer, a lawmaker from President Nicolas Sarkozy's party, has proposed a bill to make it possible to convict people responsible for Web sites or fashion ads that promote anorexia, with penalties of up to two years in prison and over $47,000 in fines.
The bill is set to go before the National Assembly next week.
The French Health Ministry says about 30,000 to 40,000 people suffer from anorexia in France, the vast majority women.

Champix significantly increases your chances of quitting smoking.
Champix contains Varenicline, which mimics the effect of nicotine on the body, thus reducing both the desire to smoke and the symptoms of withdrawal.

Champix is a medicine that can help you quit smoking by tricking your body into thinking its nicotine craving is being fulfilled.
Champix contains the active ingredient varenicline. This chemical acts in the brain and is a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor partial agonist. What this means is that it acts on the same receptors in the brain as nicotine from cigarettes does. The varenicline stimulates the nicotinic receptors just as nicotine would. This means, that your cravings for and withdrawal symptoms from nicotine are relieved. In addition, varenicline prevents nicotine from acting on the nicotinic receptors. This results in any pleasant, enjoyable effects from nicotine when you smoke are removed, considerably reducing your cravings.
Very often it is difficult to quit smoking without any assistance. Champix has been proven to work very well. You can also purchase many forms of nicotine substitutes from pharmacies such as nicotine patches, nicotine sprays and nicotine gum, all of which fulfil your nicotine cravings without you needing to smoke. Sometimes, people smoke to relieve their stress. Dealing with the underlying problems which cause you to smoke may help you quit. If you feel this applies to you, you can speak to a counsellor.
There is no need to change your diet. In addition, there are no particular foods you need to avoid.
Smoking whilst on treatment will not harm the body. However, since you are trying to quit smoking, you must avoid the urge to smoke if you want to effectively quit in the long term.
It is almost impossible to put an exact figure on this as it will depend on the individual and how much they have previously smoked and how addicted they are. However, Champix is one of the most effective treatments out there according to a wide range of various scientific studies.
No, as the two treatments may interact and prevent effective treatment.
Yes, you can get this online at DrEd.
The 0.5mg tablets are white and biconvex. The 1mg tablets are light blue and biconvex. The tablets are marked on one side with "Pfizer" and on the other with "CHX" and the dosage.
Before starting your treatment, you need to decide a quit date in the second week of your treatment when you will stop smoking. The treatment will only be effective if you are motivated to quit.
Between days 1 and 3, you need to take one 0.5mg Champix tablet once a day. During days 4 to 7, you need to take one 0.5mg Champix tablet twice per day, once in the evening and once in the morning. During week 2 (days 8 to 14) you should take a 1mg Champix tablet twice per day, once in the evening and once in the morning. You should continue this up until week 12 (or for as long as your doctor recommends). If you experience any adverse effects, you should inform your doctor who may reduce your dosage slightly.
You should swallow the tablet whole with water and you can take it with or without food.
People with kidney problems may need a lower dose.
If you overdose, seek medical assistance immediately
If you forget to take Champix, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is near the time of your next treatment, skip the missed treatment. It is important to get into a routine so that you don't forget any of your tablets. It may help if you take your treatment at the same time each day.
The active ingredient is varenicline (as tartrate). 0.5mg tablets contain 0.5mg of varenicline and 1mg tablets contain 1mg of varenicline. The tablets also contain Microcrystalline Cellulose, Calcium Hydrogen Phosphate Anhydrous, Croscarmellose Sodium, Colloidal Anhydrous Silica, Magnesium Stearate, Hypromellose, Titanium Dioxide (E171), Macrogols and Triacetin.
If you develop any swelling of the face, mouth and throat, if your skin starts to peel and blister or if you experience any suicidal thoughts/develop aggression, anxiety or agitation, inform your doctor immediately.
You should not take Champix if you are allergic to any of the ingredients in the tablet. If you experience an allergic reaction (swollen face and eyelids, itchy red skin and difficulty breathing), seek medical assistance immediately.
Champix has not been found to interact with any drugs in particular. However, before taking Champix it is a good idea to inform your doctor about which medicines you take, whether prescribed or not prescribed.
Stopping smoking will cause changes to your body: this may alter the way other drugs work. You should inform your doctor if you take theophylline (a medicine to treat breathing difficulties), warfarin (prevents blood clotting) or insulin (for diabetics) as your dosages may need to be altered once you quit smoking.
You must not take Champix if you are under 18.
You must not take Champix if you are pregnant, you intend to become pregnant whilst on treatment or you are breast-feeding.
You should not undergo nicotine replacement therapy at the same time as taking Champix.
Champix may make you feel dizzy and tired. If you experience such side effects, you should avoid driving and operating machinery whilst taking Champix.

This is the first time I have used this service. Website was easy to navigate and online questions very clear. prompt response and delivery of malaria tablets.
I cannot believe how easy it was to order, pay and then receive the goods. They kept me informed throughout. I wish all companies were this easy to deal with
I have been prescribed the same medication for over 4 years, yet I still have the hassle of taking valued time off work to visit my GP/local pharmacy for repeat prescriptions. This tedious exercise costs me a half day's annual leave for little more than a blood pressure reading and ironically, I own my own electronic blood pressure meter! DrEd.com - inexpensive, well packaged and prompt delivery.
Placed order one day delivered the next in discrete packaging, treatment worked as directed. Would use again and reccomed
A very good service very helpful with all my needs i would tell all my friends if they needed help
Our family finds this service extremely helpful when trying to get your prescription filled by your GP is a long and time consuming affair. DrEd is definitely easy and simple. Thank You

Creditable Coverage Notice
Important Notice of Creditable Coverage from Hawaii Employer-Union Health Benefits Trust Fund (EUTF) About Your Prescription Drug Coverage and Medicare
Please read this notice carefully and keep it where you can find it. This notice has information about your current prescription drug coverage with the EUTF and about your options under Medicare's prescription drug coverage. This information can help you decide whether or not you want to join a Medicare drug plan. If you are considering joining, you should compare your current coverage, including which drugs are covered at what cost, with the coverage and costs of the plans offering Medicare prescription drug coverage in your area. Information about where you can get help to make decisions about your prescription drug coverage is at the end of this notice.
There are two important things you need to know about your current coverage and Medicare's prescription drug coverage:
- Medicare prescription drug coverage became available in 2006 to everyone with Medicare. You can get this coverage if you join a Medicare Prescription Drug Plan or join a Medicare Advantage Plan (like an HMO or PPO) that offers prescription drug coverage. All Medicare drug plans provide at least a standard level of coverage set by Medicare. Some plans may also offer more coverage for a higher monthly premium.
- The EUTF has determined that the prescription drug coverage offered by CVS CaremarkSilverScript is, on average for all plan participants, expected to pay out as much as standard Medicare prescription drug coverage pays and is therefore considered Creditable Coverage. Because your existing coverage is Creditable Coverage, you can keep this coverage and not pay a higher premium (a penalty) if you later decide to join a Medicare drug plan.
When Can You Join A Medicare Drug Plan?
You can join a Medicare drug plan when you first become eligible for Medicare and each year from October 15th through December 7th.
However, if you lose your current creditable prescription drug coverage, through no fault of your own, you will also be eligible for a two (2) month Special Enrollment Period (SEP) to join a Medicare drug plan.
What Happens To Your Current Coverage If You Decide to Join A Medicare Drug Plan?
If you decide to join a Medicare drug plan, your current EUTF Prescription Drug Plan coverage will be affected. Your current medical coverage with the EUTF pays for other health expenses, in addition to prescription drugs, and you will still be eligible to receive all of your current health and prescription drug benefits if you choose to enroll in a Medicare prescription drug plan.
If you do decide to join a Medicare drug plan and drop your current EUTF Prescription Drug Plan coverage, be aware that you and your dependents will be able to get this coverage back.
When Will You Pay A Higher Premium (Penalty) To Join A Medicare Drug Plan?
You should also know that if you drop or lose your current coverage with the EUTF and don't join a Medicare drug plan within 63 continuous days after your current coverage ends, you may pay a higher premium (a penalty) to join a Medicare drug plan later.
If you go 63 continuous days or longer without creditable prescription drug coverage, your monthly premium may go up by at least 1% of the Medicare base beneficiary premium per month for every month that you did not have that coverage. For example, if you go nineteen months without creditable coverage, your premium may consistently be at least 19% higher than the Medicare base beneficiary premium. You may have to pay this higher premium (a penalty) as long as you have Medicare prescription drug coverage. In addition, you may have to wait until the following October to join.
For More Information About This Notice Or Your Current Prescription Drug Coverage…
Contact the EUTF's Customer Service Call Center listed below for further information.
For More Information About Your Options Under Medicare Prescription Drug Coverage…
More detailed information about Medicare plans that offer prescription drug coverage is in the "Medicare & You" handbook. You'll get a copy of the handbook in the mail every year from Medicare. You may also be contacted directly by Medicare drug plans. For more information about Medicare prescription drug coverage: Visit www.medicare.gov.
Call your State Health Insurance Assistance Program (see the inside back cover of your copy of the "Medicare & You" handbook for their telephone number) for personalized help Call 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227). TTY users should call 1-877-486-2048. If you have limited income and resources, extra help paying for Medicare prescription drug coverage is available. For information about this extra help, visit Social Security on the web at www.socialsecurity.gov, or call them at 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778).
Remember: Keep this Creditable Coverage notice. If you decide to join one of the Medicare drug plans, you may be required to provide a copy of this notice when you join to show whether or not you have maintained creditable coverage and, therefore, whether or not you are required to pay a higher premium (a penalty).
