About Tiptup
Balance inspiration with innovation
Tiptup posted a topic in General DiscussionHello, I'd like to first like to introduce myself and provide a little context for my intentions/biases. My alias is Tiptup, however many cod-vets may remember me as kodiak (GameWyze, Nefarious, The Final Stand, DeM, etc). I played Cod1 and 4 at the invite/pro level. My hope is that Battalion becomes a very popular niche esport. I am one of the supporters that recognize the purpose of this project is not to create a realistic WW2 shooter. The developers' goal to my understanding is to take inspiration from cod2 and cod4 promod with elements of CS match-making and create a classic competitive shooter. I am hyped and the gameplay footage has only intensified that. To the point: BAT44 is not the first project to attempt to revive the gameplay of a classic competitive game (see. Toxikk, Reflex, Battlerite, Days of War, etc). In my opinion, many of these games have fallen flat because they focused entirely too much on mimicking these games. BAT44 will not succeed if it's simply cod with matchmaking. BAT44 can certainly take inspiration from cod but at the end of the day it must absolutely forge its own identity and be a great game on its own merits. One example of BAT44 attempting to add their own flavor to the game is this potential Reinforcement feature in Search & Destroy. I love the idea! It would add incredible depth to the game and make each round unique. After hearing the idea I quickly came up with various possibilities (+1 bomb for the allies, portable mg42 for axis, +1 grenade per player, an allocation of shotguns and/or sniper rifles, extra smoke grenades). Please, developers, first and foremost this game must be your own. We're all here because we missed that old school cod gameplay but skins and matchmaking aren't enough to establish long term appeal. The Reinforcement feature is a great start; please continue this approach. On an unrelated note competitive games thrive because players have something to play for. COD1 essentially died the moment CPL cancelled the second COD CPL tournament. I believe it may be in your best interest to announce a tournament/league structure as soon as possible to keep your player base motivated. The reality of modern esports is that people flock to the games that people are playing in droves. This creates a long-term stability; the thought that if you put hours into this game, in a year or five people will still be playing it and your 'development' has a payoff. These tournaments do not need to be the grand 100k+ CS level grand prizes but a simple 10k EU and NA tournament would be substantial for early player base growth and stability. Crowd funding is an option as well. Best regards, Tiptup
Fear is knocking to the door
Tiptup replied to Soldat Ryan's topic in General DiscussionI lurk these forums and this post irked me so much I had to create a new account. I've backed the game and so have my small community of friends (6ish?). I played COD1, 2 and 4 competitively. MOHAA got me into pc gaming. This is the game I've been waiting for.. hopefully. Now I will respectfully address each of your points. First break was when Devs decided to add microtranscation. After discussion, they convinced me saying it won't be compulsory to buy these lootcrate and everyone will be able to unlock same stuff in the time and because it is a question of survival for the long term. Ok, but it is a step back. I support micro-transactions. I look how CSGO, DOTA and Overwatch have dealt with it and I'm delighted. If the game was P2W at all, it would ruin the game entirely but their post has outlined that this is not their goal. If it is purely aesthetic, does not affect your game whatsoever.. what do you care? It is not a step back, it is an alternative source of revenue that will allow them to continually support the game. If a guy runs by my screen with an outfit and gun that look different, I won't be hassled. Plus, as a nerd, I enjoy getting new skins and such. Then Devs stepped back on the fact it won't be possible to stream or record Alpha Closed. Ok. It is a detail. Not essential. Not a big problem and it is understandable. But again it is a step back. I understand why you'd be upset but is this is a step back? Certainly not. The devs are not confident that they want the general public to make a judgement or assessment on the game at such an early stage. All it takes is for someone to see a stream, say.. he this doesn't look finished/graphics suck/whatever.. I won't buy it and I'll tell my friends this as well. Then Devs looked for to implement an original quake engine bug : strafejump. I guess they are not looking for to add too much glitchies or intentionnal bugs. Strafe jumping is a nice movement feature that adds to the competitive depth/skillgap. Personally, I think its odd to try and recreate movement depth when you can add your own/original spins on movement tricks. Today Devs announce they are thinking to add "crazy skins". It is not what backers wanted when they decided to support the game massivly. Ok it is not WW2 reconstitution but neither CODMW5 or RB6-Siege. Again i have the feeling it is much more an economic reason than a real core game reason. Devs are starting to think profit insteed to make the game they promised first. Even if it is not fully decided, it is a new step back. I share your concern here. I hope they keep the skins within the environment. I support clan skins/logos ala CSGO but that is about it. If I see Santa costumes and pink leopards I'll be pretty bummed about that art decision. They can easily make profits off cool gritty realistic WW2 skins/huds/etc. In the same time, Devs are saying they are pending the development of "War Torn" System wich was a great feature announced after kickstarter but always in the spirit of customization of our characters. We didn't expect it and it had the approval of the majority. It is a step back. I honestly never really cared for the war torn system. Its a lot of work for something you won't really care for after the original "oh thats kind of a nifty feature." This if it anything is a positive thing if it means efforts are being redirected to more significant developments. The most dangerous, today i have the feeling Devs become elitist and are talking much more with pro-gamers. I take @Farq-S words because it is better said than i could : "the development is struggling to strike the right balance between casual and competitive. If it goes too far down either path this game will lose alot of its audience on the opposite side." The game needs both worlds but one world haven't to dominate the other. What next ?? Killstreak ? Perks ? Locking weapons ? ..... I included these as one point. I don't think you understand this quote. It is difficult for any developer to strike this balance but as seen with CSGO, the more you support the depth of a shooter and allow for a skill gap, the more people appreciate putting time and effort into the title. COD 1/2/4 were competitive heavy shooters that went casual and completely lost their original fan base in favor of a larger casual scene. Lastly, killstreaks, perks and locking weapons.. you realize these are not competitive features right? In COD4 the competitive community had to create modes to eliminate this garbage? If adding these is your concern you should support the input from competitive players.

Worldwide photo walk in Old Delhi
worldwide photo walk in Old Delhi from Sephi Bergerson on Vimeo.
As part of Scott Kelby's worldwide photo walk event, a group of fifty photo enthusiasts headed out to the by-lanes of old Delhi on a hot and humid saturday afternoon. Old Delhi can never be a disappointment and indeed we had some fun experiences. After the walk we reassembled at a local bar & restaurant in New Delhi and only broke the party later at night. Next time we should plan for winter 🙂
we waited for 20 minutes before we took the group picture but regretfully we left about ten people out.

The Mini nappy is a very simple and effective nappy, designed to fit premature to newborn babies. The waterproof outer cover is shaped like a disposable for ease of use. Simply place the folded absorbent Prefold inside the cover, lay baby on top, then fasten with the snaps.
The Mini's design has been tested on boys and girls from 2kg-4kg with great success.
To fit the Mini nappy on:
- Fold the prefold into halves and place into the nappy cover.
- Place a flushable liner over the top of the prefold if desired.
- Place baby on top, then fasten the nappy as normal.
To use when out and about: Use one of our Waterproof nappy bags to transport your Cushie Tushies nappies when out and about.
Mess-free flushable liners: Most people love our flushable liners as they make nappy changes really easy! They are very simple to use – lay them on top of the nappy (between the cloth nappy and baby's bottom) and then put the nappy on as usual. (Note: our flushable liners are sized for our full-size nappies, so you will need to cut them in half to suit the Mini size nappy.) Basically, flushable liners catch the mess, which you then flush down the toilet leaving a relatively unsoiled nappy that is easy to wash.

To make a call to Belize from Nigeria, a person will have to dial the following way:
Whenever dialling to Belize, you are required to drop the 1st number of the phone number. This is because, phone numbering plans in Belize utilize a so called Telephone Trunk Code (Trung Prefix). This is typically the digit '0' (zero) that is positioned in front of telephone numbers for telephone calls coming from within the country. Nevertheless, this specific digit have to be left out whenever you are dialling an international destination.
Certainly, there are occasions when an international phone call will not proceed through. Quite a few of the causes are explained listed below:
Telephone area codes in Belize are commonly known as Numbering Plan Areas (NPAs). It was previously known as STD codes in Belize.
These types of telephone area codes are necessary only if phoning from outside the telephone code area. But it's fundamental when making a phone calls from the cell phones.
Telephone area codes or city codes in Belize normally show geographical areas within Belize which are covered by 100s of telephone exchanges.
The phone area code number in Belize is generally preceded in the dial string by the Belize country code or the international access code for Belize.
Telephone Area codes in Belize in many cases are quoted together with the country access code for Belize.
When making an overseas telephone call from Belize, first of all dial the IDD code which is "00″, then the country access code.
If you'd like to find more info about travelling to Belize from Abuja, Nigeria, please select the applicable web links listed below:
Please share your own encounters with the Belizean Embassy in Abuja, Nigeria. Whether you're applying for a visa for visiting Belize or notarizing documents or simply just planning to talk to a person at the Belizean embassy in Abuja. Let us know simply by submitting it on this page.
Please Remember: Your comments are going to be seen by the general public, because of this do not include confidential information.

If you've read much of what I've written, or if you've ever worked with me directly, you know how much I hate the phrase "It's just a new spin on old technology." Sometimes we use that phrase when we meet something new – so that we can explain it in terms of other things we know – it can help us build metaphors and more quickly embrace the technology. Sometimes we use the phrase when we want to downplay the significance of something that appears like a fad to us. [read more…]
Whew! Sometimes we get lucky and unexpected situations don't take us out of the game. After we dodge the proverbial bullet, conventional wisdom suggests we ought to figure out what happened and find a way to prevent it in the future if we can. Even more powerful wisdom suggests that we find ways to learn from the situation as part of a continuous improvement discipline. Either way, it pays dividends to have the courage to act beyond the self-preservation of dodging the bullet. In this post, I want to highlight two [read more…]
I swear I'm gonna turn off Google Analytics…
This post takes a lighthearted and self-deprecating look at analytics and metrics. I will use myself as the first example (not the woman in the picture), because I recently caught myself in a surprising analytics story. I will also get more serious toward the end. As many of you know, I took on a recent project to move my blog to self-hosted WordPress. One thing I learned in this move was how I had slowly become addicted to analytics: How do Page Views (on wordpress.com) change when I posted various kinds [read more…]

Declaration by United Nations
The Declaration by United Nations was a World War II document agreed to on January 1, 1942 during the Arcadia Conference by 26 governments: the Allied "Big Four" (the USA, the UK, the USSR, and China), nine American allies in Central America and the Caribbean, the four British Dominions, British India, and eight Allied governments-in-exile, for a total of twenty-six nations.
During December 1941, Roosevelt devised the name "United Nations" for the Allies of World War II, and the Declaration by United Nations, on 1 January 1942, was the basis of the modern UN.[1] The term United Nations became synonymous during the war with the Allies and was considered to be the formal name that they were fighting under.[citation needed]
By the end of the war, a number of other states had acceded to the declaration, including the Philippines, France, every Latin American state besides Argentina, and the various independent states of the Middle East and Africa. Although most of the minor Axis powers had switched sides and joined the United Nations as co-belligerents against Germany by the end of the war, they were not allowed to accede to the declaration.
The Moscow Declaration was signed during the Moscow Conference on October 30, 1943. The formal name of the declaration was "Declaration of the Four Nations on General Security". It was signed by the foreign secretaries of the Governments of the United States, the United Kingdom and the Soviet Union. The Declaration has four separate parts.
Joint Four-Nation Declaration
In the section Joint Four-Nation Declaration, the governments of the United States of America, United Kingdom, the Soviet Union, and China, in accordance with the declaration by the United Nations of January, 1942, and subsequent declarations, to continue hostilities against those Axis powers with which they respectively are at war until such powers have laid down their arms on the basis of unconditional surrender. They also recognize the necessity of establishing at the earliest practicable date a general international organization (the United Nations), based on the principle of the sovereign equality of all peace-loving states, and open to membership by all such states, large and small, for the maintenance of international peace and security.
Declaration regarding Italy
In the section Declaration regarding Italy the foreign secretaries of the US, UK and USSR declared that fascism and its influence should be completely destroyed and that the Italian people should be given every opportunity to establish governmental and other institutions based on democratic principles.
Declaration regarding Austria
In the section Declaration regarding Austria the Foreign Secretaries of US, UK and USSR declared that the annexation (Anschluss) of Austria by Germany was null and void. It called for the establishment of a free Austria after the victory over Nazi Germany.
"The Governments of the United Kingdom, the Soviet Union and the United States of America are agreed that Austria, the first free country to fall a victim to Hitlerite aggression, shall be liberated from German domination.
They regard the annexation imposed upon Austria by German on March 15, 1938, as null and void. They consider themselves as in no way bound by any changes effected in Austria since that date. They declare that they wish to see re-established a free and independent Austria, and thereby to open the way for the Austrian people themselves, as well as those neighbouring states which will be faced with similar problems, to find that political and economic security which is the only basis for lasting peace.
Austria is reminded, however, that she has responsibility which she cannot evade for participation in the war on the side of Hitlerite Germany, and that in the final settlement account will inevitably be taken of her own contribution to her liberation."
Statement on Atrocities
The final section of the Moscow Declaration is entitled Statement on Atrocities and it was signed by the U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill and Soviet Premier Joseph Stalin. They noted that "evidence of atrocities, massacres and cold-blooded mass executions which are being perpetrated by Hitlerite forces in many of the countries they have overrun and from which they are now being steadily expelled". They went on to state that Germans would be sent back to the countries where they had committed their crimes and "judged on the spot by the peoples whom they have outraged". As for those Germans whose criminal offenses had no particular geographical localization, they would be punished by joint decision of the governments of the Allies.
The Statement on Atrocities was largely drafted by Winston Churchill[1] and led to the setting up of the European Advisory Commission which drafted the London Charter.

"And when we give each other Christmas gifts in His name, let us remember that He has given us the sun and the moon and the stars, and the earth with its forests and mountains and oceans–and all that live and move upon them. He has given us all green things and everything that blossoms and bears fruit and all that we quarrel about and all that we have misused. And to save us from our foolishness, from all our sins, He came down to earth and gave us Himself."
~Sigrid Undset
Sometimes I forget to receive the beauty sitting right in front of me, and this Christmas, I choose to see it. I choose to embrace the hours spent wrapping gifts because I have loved ones to receive them. I choose the long, cold, outdoor runs because I have the strength to endure them. I receive the chatter and bickering and playful sibling rivalry because my home and my arms have children to hold. I attend the parties and eat the hot taco dip and resist the urge to hide in the bathroom with a book because I have friends and family who care enough to show up. (I may have stashed a book in my purse for emergency situations. Old habits die hard.) I choose the empty branches, the cool winter sun, and the pine cones flung from the evergreen tree, even when they strike me square in the face. This is the season I stand in, the one of waiting and then of receiving.
I hope to remember the fullness of all that is given and all I have yet to gain. This year, I chose to receive it all–the loss, the gain, the bitter, and the sweet–with open arms. Some experiences carved away at the flesh and others molded the spirit. I feel the fingerprints, the indentations and pressing in of the places that needed re-shaping, and I feel the freedom that comes with becoming a more usable vessel.
My wish for you this Christmas is for you to open your arms to the merry, the cold, the bright, the bruised, the hard, the light, and the true. Open your arms to receive the greatest truth–Christ came in the flesh into a cruel world under impossible circumstances and He redeemed it. He continues to redeem it daily, in you and me, and in the way we give and love and receive. He molds us for His purpose, and we can choose to remain empty or allow Him to fill us with all He has already given. This world, these people, this one flame-bearing life.
Wishing you a Christmas filled to overflowing.

How to Make Tomato Cream Soup by Rose
- 1In a large saucepan, melt butter over medium heat, add onion and carrot and saute until onion is translucent. Add tomatoes, stock, basil sprig, thyme and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, cover and simmer on low for about 30 minutes. Discard the bay leaf and stir in the bread crumbs. In small batches, puree the soup with a food mill, blender or food processor. Be careful with liquid it has a tendancy to splatter. After pureeing return back to same pan and stir in the cream on low heat until thoroughly heated.

Organic gardening is often very, very difficult to accomplish, however, with the right knowledge and skills anything is possible. With the accomplishment of growing an organic garden, the reward is well worth the time learning how. This article will provide you with the information you need to know about organic gardening.
Gardening can be a very rewarding practice. Not only can you improve the look of the outside of your home, but you can be proud of it as well. There are plenty of tools and things to use in gardening and this can be a very rewarding activity. You can improve not only your home but your neighborhood and quite possibly start saving on groceries by growing your own food!
If you are intending on getting into gardening, be sure to purchase the right tools and equipment necessary to do all the tasks. This will help insure that you do not end up ruining your garden by using improper tools and wasting a lot of time and energy for naught.
For planting spring bulbs in the winter, decide where you want them to go and dig individual planting holes at the correct spacing. Place some small four inch plastic pots inside the holes with the rims slightly exposed and fill with soil. When spring comes, planting the bulbs is a breeze. Just remove the pots and place the bulbs in the empty hole. Fill the hole with the soil that was in the pot.
Use a solution made of a combination of alcohol, water, and vinegar to remove the salt deposits that may accrue in clay pots. Spray it on the the pots and scrub away with a brush, preferably plastic. This allows you to continue to reuse those clay pots! Make sure the pots are dry before using them though.
The best gardens from an environmental standpoint originate from seeds, instead of plants. Once the plant is healthy enough, replant it in your garden with the appropriate type of soil. Most nurseries use plastic containers to grow seedling. This plastic is seldom recycled, so most is dumped in landfills. Be kind to the environment and start your garden with seeds or purchase young plants from nurseries that use organic packaging materials.
Growing your own vegetable garden, whether large or small, offers many benefits. You will eat better! Fresh vegetables offer more vitamins than those which have been processed. Planting and doing upkeep on your garden will also help provide exercise which leads to better fitness. It will also save you a significant amount of money at the grocery store!
When planting your bulbs, have you ever wondered what end of the bulb should be pointing upward? Even though the growing end will naturally grow towards the warmth of the sun, being planted in the right direction will make it easier on the growing shoot. If a bulb has a pointed end, the end with the point should be planted upward since it contains the stem. Long tubers and rounded corms are more difficult to figure out which end to plant upward. If they still have dried roots attached, plant that end downward.
Avoid using broad-spectrum pesticides in your garden. These pesticides can also kill useful insects that eat your pests. Beneficial insects are more susceptible to toxic pesticides than their annoying counterparts, so a broad-spectrum pesticide could kill all of the good bugs first, allowing the population of bad pests to multiply. When this happens, you will spray another round of pesticides to get rid of the pests, thus creating a never-ending cycle for yourself.
Choosing colorful perennials for your garden will make a bold statement and will give you much satisfaction throughout the season. Some perennials with interesting foliage are the lungwort, Japanese painted fern, and the hosta. These plants are very attractive and thrive for many months. There are many varieties of perennials to choose from, just go online and search for perennial plants that remain beautiful for many months out of the year.
It is important to wear a mask when gardening, if you are an asthmatic. Breathing can already be difficult for you and the pollen that is in the air could make it worse. Wearing a mask is a great and inexpensive way to lessen your chances of having an asthma attack.
Hang shiny silver objects throughout your garden. These can act as natural pest deterrents; no need for chemicals. The reflections can disorient flying pests such as aphids that require the sun to direct their flight, and may frighten off larger pests such as birds, and even rabbits or deer.
Stated previously in this article, the results of growing an organic garden are well worth the time spent learning how to properly grow and care for one. Although, without the proper information it is a daunting task. Now that you have read this information you have the right knowledge to begin your organic gardening journey.

Stephen Ellis and Gerrie ter Haar argue in their book of Worlds of Power: Religious Thought and Political Practice in Africa ( Oxford University Press, 2004), "Religion is the emerging political language of today." The phenomenon is encountered everywhere, most evidently in both the domestic politics of the United States and in the complexities of the Middle East, but also in Europe where in recent years the post-ancient regime separation of state and church has b een increasingly breached in recent years with the changing demographics of the continent.
In many respects, it is ironic that the separation of religious from political thought was invented in the West and exported to the rest of the world in colonial times when one considers that intrinsic to Europe's financial revolution more than three centuries ago was the use of mathematics as a way of calculating risk, prompted in part by a new theology emerging from the Reformation. As Max Weber noted, the spirit of capitalist enterprise was originally associated with a religious view of the world.

it's an internet thing!
it's an internet thing!
12:02 11 July 2012
The famous sidekick in Wallace and Gromit was planned to be a cat, but was turned into a dog at the last minute. It was a close shave for the intelligent canine, who, together with his inventor of a master, has been entertaining an audience of 15 million in Britain.
Nick Park, creator of the animated show, recently revealed how he came up with the show: "I had this idea about this guy who builds a rocket in the basement of his house, and would blast off through a sequence of trap doors, for a joke."
"Then I thought he had to have an assistant. So I drew a cat called Gromit."
In the end, Park opted to use a dog instead because it was simpler to design when it was time to model the character out of clay. He also had access to materials that could make a dog easier to make, "I had a packet of dog's noses from a craft shop on me…so Gromit became a dog."
The character was changed right on the first day of filming.
The evolution of the character was also influenced by the limitations of the production. The character of Gromit was originally planned to be a bouncy, extrovert character, but Park revealed that the character was "too hard to move." Thus, they settled on just moving his brow, which also became a trademark for the character.
"Suddenly he came a contrast – a child more intelligent than his father," Park said.
Park also revealed details regarding the forthcoming classical music event for the duo, to be called Wallace and Gromit Prom.

An excellent, humorously written report on the Monk Parakeets of Texas appeared on November 18th in the Texas Monthly. The report, by John Nova Lomax, is the most comprehensive report I've yet read on these parrots' efforts to colonize Greater Houston and Austin. (According to an e-mail correspondent of mine, the parrots apparently have also established a strong presence in Dallas.)
As Mr. Lomax notes, "it's getting easier these days to say where in Texas they are not—the Panhandle, far West Texas (aside from El Paso)—instead of where they are." The ubiquitous, vociferous birds appear to be popular with local residents: in fact, they've even earned five stars on Yelp. That's an accolade that even the wild monks in Brooklyn have yet to earn!
The article also includes some on-point observations about the outsized personality of these birds, their penchant for controlled aggression, and their wily intelligence.
Great job, Mr. Lomax!

This unit begins by investigating the history of physical education, health and sport within an education context and noting the shift towards a more integrated model of HPE. The areas of congruence, tensions and challenges for PE identities are explored. A focus on physical activity and the relationship to children's health status and present day health and physical education programs are examined. This is achieved through teacher modelling, student observation and teaching physical education lessons in a school setting. Students will also analyse the benefits, role and history of health in education and explore the risks to students and identity within a health context, school and broader community.
Students will also explore the work of the teacher in relation to the key principles described in the code of ethics and conduct for the teaching profession and the relevant legislative, administrative and organisational policies and processes required for teachers according to school stage. Students participate in practical classes to enhance their knowledge and skills in traditional and student-centred approaches to learning through a variety of sports (including SEPEP and game-centred approaches) and reflect on the shift from participant to teacher.

Denver is the hockey town that Nashville wants to be when it grows up.
Colorado has Nathan MacKinnon, and the Predators do not.
During the 20 years the Avs have made their home in the Rocky Mountains, they have twice won the Stanley Cup. The NHL opened shop in the Music City for the 1998-99 season, and what has Nashville got to show for it? More heartbreak than the lyrics of a George Jones song. Cry, baby, cry.
With a 5-3 victory Friday, the Avalanche caught the Predators for the final playoff spot, at least for the moment.
Hey, Nashville: Cry, baby, cry.
"I'd be lying if I said a month into the season, we weren't looking at the standings with the thought we're in trouble," said Colorado defenseman Tyson Barrie, whose power-play goal on a wickedly beautiful shot provided the winning score exactly 11 minutes deep in the third period. "But we didn't settle. We did a good job of not giving up. We kept believing."
The Avs and Preds figure to wrestle for a spot in the Western Conference playoffs from now until the snow melts in Colorado and the azaleas bloom in Tennessee. This is a rivalry waiting to happen.
Think back to 2013. With the first pick in the NHL draft, the Avalanche ignored conventional wisdom, passed on local-grown defenseman Seth Jones and took MacKinnon at No. 1. It was the choice I advocated long and hard, because a superlative scorer can transform a franchise in a way a defenseman almost never can.
Was it an easy decision for the Avalanche?
"Yeah, it was," Avs coach Patrick Roy said. "But it was a team decision. It was not my decision."
Jones, who fell in love with hockey watching the Avs as a child while his dad (Popeye) played basketball with the Nuggets, fell to No. 4 in the first round, where the Predators snagged him.
"It's funny, because there were a lot of good centermen in that draft, and they decided to go with Jones," Roy said. "And (now) they're making a trade."
Earlier this week, Nashville general manager David Poile sent Jones packing to Columbus in exchange for Ryan Johansen, a 6-foot-3, 205-pound center with the explosive scoring skills the Predators have been lacking since Colorado landed MacKinnon in '13.
When the Avs and Preds took the ice, the Pepsi Center rocked like it did back in the glory days. The joint really got jumping when MacKinnon willed the home team to a goal in the opening period, taking a hard shot that left a juicy rebound off Nashville goalie Pekka Rinne. Kid Mac relentlessly scrambled for the loose puck until it was pushed across to teammate Jarome Iginla for an easy score.
There was the perfect example of why the Avs took Mac Kinnon, leaving the Predators insanely jealous for more than two years. "He's electric out there," Roy said.
While Denver has been gripped in the throes of Broncomania, the Avalanche was busy, burying itself alive then grabbing a shovel. On the strength of a 13-5-2 stretch since Thanksgiving, the Avs have gone from comatose to a playoff contender with a pulse.
After Colorado took the lead at 2-1 and again at 3-2, the Predators refused to go quietly in the showdown that generated as much playoff heat as a regular-season game can generate on a frigid night in January. But you can bet your Bauer skates that Poile, one of the more aggressive general managers in the league, will keep grinding to get Nashville in the postseason tournament.
Way back in 2007, Poile took a chance on a broken-down center named Peter Forsberg. In making a trade for Johansen, it appears the Predators might finally have the super-sized points machine to match the pop of Jonathan Toews or Ryan Getzlaf.
It's the missing piece that Nashville has long sought.
After lackluster starts by goalie Semyon Varlamov, center Matt Duchene and Roy earlier in the season, the biggest names on this hockey club have picked up their games. Colorado, however, needs more talent. The Avs still seem lacking at the blue line.
As the Predators demonstrated by bagging Johansen with a big deal, hunting season opened early in the NHL this year. The man who oversees the hockey operations of the Avalanche front office is Joe Sakic.
This is a Colorado team that has fought hard, winning the right to be taken seriously as a playoff contender.
Your move, Super Joe. It's time to make a big play.

I took careful photos of most of the steps for my first-ever double welt pocket sample; then somehow accidentally deleted all the pix in the camera folder. That was a very fast way to open up a boatload of space, but I don't have the in-progress pix I took tonight. I didn't lose any other pix since I am pretty diligent about uploading pix to Flickr as I take them.
Now....Flickr is stuck at the "add to album" step on Firefox and Chrome on Windows8 and Firefox on Windows 7. Soooooo.......here are the pix, directly uploaded to my blog. The pattern is the Sewaholic Thurlow pattern. I followed the pattern directions and Lladybird's photo tute for double welt pockets.
I can see room for improvement, but for the first time, I don't think these are bad.
Facing my fears step 1: sew first double welt pocket sample....
Facing my fears, step 2: Make second double welt pocket sample...maybe tmw night???
Be well!
And wishing you better luck with Flickr than I am having at the moment....

I've only done it once. I really need to conquer these pockets as well.ReplyDelete
I can see a great double welt pocket on your blog :)ReplyDelete
Practising a second time will help cement these into your skill set.
Why are welt pockets so terrifying? A few years ago, I tackled the welt pocket beast and I'm competent enough not to be afraid anymore. My pockets are not always perfect, but at least I'm not afraid :-)ReplyDelete

That looks so good!ReplyDelete
Congratulations on tackling the bear.

I think they look great! I tried a single welt pocket. Once. I can relate to the trepidation, but you are such a strong technical sewist that I imagine you can master this technique quickly!ReplyDelete

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Rugby League Forum' started by The Wheel, Oct 7, 2009.
Choc only rep
Good news. Apart from Choc, Matai and Foran, plus Snake who i read was unavailable due to injury, we should have a terrific off season and focused on one thing - getting that trophy back. If 2010 is the start of the next decade, i want us to dominate from the beginning, not leave it til 7 years in
From fox sports http://www.foxsports.com.au/story/0,8659,26177444-5019264,00.html Melbourne Storm dominate Kangaroos squad for Four Nations tournament   By staff writers   October 07, 2009 NRL premiers Melbourne Storm have dominated the Kangaroos squad announced on Wednesday, with six players named for the inaugural Four Nations tournament. Incumbents Cameron Smith, Greg Inglis and Billy Slater have been joined by Cooper Cronk, Brett White and Ryan Hoffman. Parramatta, who lost the grand final to the Storm on Sunday, had two players named, superstar Jarryd Hayne and Nathan Hindmarsh. Wests Tigers' Robbie Farah has been included as the back up hooker behind Smith, gaining the spot ahead of Bulldogs rival Michael Ennis. Debutants in the team include Bulldogs centre Josh Morris, Canberra Raiders' David Shillington, White and Penrith's Michael Jennings. 2008 premiers Manly had only one team member named in the squad, Anthony Watmough.
Shillington is interesting
Glenn Stewart shafted imo Was MOTM in the May test match, had 2 good Origin games, and his form for Manly over the 2nd half of the year was pretty good as well
Gift turned in a fat **** during the off season & World Cup campaign - too much piss & celebration (& he wasnt the only one). A good thing he will amongst others be involved in all pre season training so Des can keep his eye on him.
I think that is garbage personally He has never been a stick figure, even in 2008 he carried a bit around, and he still got through a ****load of work for us, not the flashy stuff of 2008, but a lot more covering what we lost with Williamson and Menzies
I really hope Choc doesn't suffer burn out.Â
I thought once they picked Gift for Prime Ministers team -he was in trouble. Should have been picked but the Telegraph wanted Hindmarsh and I guess the selectors can read
Hopefully its a wake up call for our players. Another possilbe solution to end the complancency we got this week.
Glen Stewart was garbage for us most of the year. Forgot that he was a forward 99% of the time.
Sorry mate - Wheel is right. I know for a fact that G. Stewart was in "party mode" this year. Like he said, too much alcohol and "partying", and not enough focus on the career.
Choc and Gift were the only two players who deserved it, Gift has an incredibly high workload and is usually undervalued for his contribution as basically another halve, hmm would be interesting putting him at 5/8 ala Gallen or was it Bird for the sharks last year at 5/8? Problem is im sure he cant kick. Anyway the main good news to come of this is with another 6 storm players playing in the test team thats roughly another $120,000 off Storms salary cap for next year, thats one more decent player they can no longer get.
Too slow to play five-eight.
Glad we only have one player at risk of getting injured in the test comp. Choc constantly plays injured anyway. Choc for MOM in the decider.
Not having players in this team is one of the best things for us, hopefully we wont have many in origin next year, we need the players back on deck thinking about their jobs

Tool Provides Real-Time Parcel Rates Across Carriers
ShipRush is now offering shippers a midmarket, web version of a tool it developed that gives merchants a real-time view of parcel rates across multiple carriers, including UPS, FedEx and the U.S. Postal Service, among others. Rafael Zimberoff, product manager for ShipRush, said the tool was created years ago when he handled shipping for FaxRush, software for integrating CRM with fax systems. "There's always been a lot of technology intended for larger DCs," Zimberoff said. "This is the only SMB shipping system that has the heritage of DC technology, letting smaller shippers do things that DCs have always done but they've never been able to do." ShipRush was used by Stamps.com as a technology partner for rate shopping until it was replaced when Stamps.com acquired a similar technology. Zimberoff said ShipRush can handle one shipment at time, or hundreds. Shippers can input a number of parameters affecting rates like package dimensions and weight, zone, fuel and residential surcharges and carrier rules. Many smaller merchant companies use Excel sheets to create their own rate shopping system, and use multiple screens to create a custom rate matrix. The problem, Zimberoff said, is that calculations made in January can change in subsequent months. "It's real hard to build matrices with rules that take into account extended areas and things like residential fuel surcharges," he said. "And if you calculate in January for zone 4 shipments by method A, that can change back and forth month to month."

Chili Peppers Can Help You Detox Your Skin
When you passed those ornamental chili plants in rainbow hues at the flower stand you probably hadn't considered the benefits these spicy peppers carry for the health of your skin. As you browsed the dangling dried chili wreaths in the southwest market places it was impossible to imagine how those wrinkled red things could be more than a sprinkle atop your favorite chipotle dish. However, these potent spices can rid your body of toxins and clear your pores. And although your local spa can do this without the intense heat and under more relaxing circumstances, you might be one of those people that enjoy a flushed complexion.
These marvelous chilies, in a healthy dose, can rid your body of toxins and flush your pores clean with an instant sweat. While on your off the beaten path traveling journey, like Mexico, chilies are known to be an excellent way to ward off dysentery causing bacteria in food, along with tequila but that's another article for another time. Spices in this way are medicinal for digestion and have the ability to ward off ills when included in preparation of the tastiest meals whether it's Thai or Mexican or Guyanese dishes you prefer.
Cayenne Pepper
The home remedies overflow for cayenne from treating sore throats to stimulating blood circulation. Increased circulation brings more nutrients to the surface of the skin, carries more oxygen to it and moves waste out of your system. Giving you skin that you can be proud of.
Additionally, many have used this to naturally treat mild high blood pressure, reduce fever, and clear sinuses. Cayenne can be found in tincture form for medicinal purposes such as these.
You may have heard horrific tales of contests to see who can consume the most habaneros. A crazy diabolical idea, that for some spells death. But in healthful doses this chili has enormous benefits.
Think of what you hope to achieve for healthy skin in a sauna or hot spring. Chilis essentially give you that treatment over a meal. The varying degrees of heat pass through your body stimulating the release of toxins from the core of your body by way of opening pores. Sweating signifies an internal cleanse of the body for improved health. All of the residual gunk flows out and our skin can breathe easily with now unclogged pores.
Everyone loves salsa, but chili rellenos will always be my favorite southwest comfort food: huge succulent chilis stuffed with oozing melted cheese with a light crispy outer crust. While it may not sound like the healthy choice you will soon understand the full benefits of the one chili meal (con cerveza) once you've sucked one down while a Mexicana croons drippy ballads with a three-piece mariachi band in the background. On this small dirt roadside attraction you will learn how healthfully penetrating the chili experience really is.
Finally start reaping the benefits of superior skin care today and stop wondering if you can have beautiful skin. Call for your appointments NOW at 212.949.2350 and if you are a first time client GET $50 off your first treatment.

Text below taken from comment on Reidar Visser's page (excepting wikipedia page). Make sure to click the pictures for details. It is very possible Reidar is pys-oping…sooo, no conclusions yet!
"Ah, another beautifully written article regarding the subject of the suppression of dissent at the hands of government apparatchiks. It is so refreshing to see this topic explored by someone that isn't…well…American. When I speak to my fellow Americans about the transformation of law enforcement from "peace officers" to "secret police" they usually have no idea what I am talking about. Regardless, the foundation of the entire global system as [sic] based on the tactics and operations of the East German STASI. I highly suggest everyone review the documentary "STASI: East Germany's Secret Police" produced by Film Europa in 2007. Watch that movie, and your eyes will be opened to not only what they are doing to dissidents, how they are doing it, and perhaps most importantly of all, why the police are motivated to target individuals that have committed no crime."
"I will try to address the issues in your post as they are presented. The Chinese Water Torture aspect is related to the STASI concept of "Soft Kill", specifically enumerated in STASI Directive 1/76, or the infamous "Disintegration Directive". Not to go into too much detail, but please bear in mind that we live in a world where police kicking, beating, and shoving people can be viewed, in real time, by the entire world. Can anyone say "Public Relations Nightmare"? Sure you can! Put simply, the new goal of the police is destroying someone without the person themselves knowing who the enemy is, or why they are being targeted, and of course leaving the casual observer completely clueless. Again, please review "STASI: East Germany's Secret Police" for a proper explanation of the soft kill concept.
Audio and visual stimulus (bright headlights and loud motorcycles) is simply "anchoring". Not complicated at all. It helps acclimate the target to the concept that "when you hear or see this stimuli, you will react with fear". Again , not rocket science at all.
On the issue of being followed by uniformed police, simple intimidation tactics. If you own a mobile phone, it is likely you are being tracked via that device. In a recent court decision here in America, police were granted the right to use mobile phone data without permission from the court. This decision makes the suppression of political dissidents exponentially easy for law enforcement. Not that the police had a hard time before, or even followed the rules, but there you have it. To confirm this, please remove the battery from your phone, then walk or ride your bike to a remote location and wait for an hour or so. Then, plug the battery back in to your phone and see how long it takes for a police officer or informant to find their way to your location. Not very long, I bet.
The use of modified vehicles would denote persons with a criminal history. Punk kids dealing drugs or assaulting people for no good reason. The STASI model is employing armies of informants. Hundreds of informants, thousands of informants, hundreds of thousands of informants! What pool do the police recruit their informants from? Why, CRIMINALS of course. Would anyone expect Catholic nuns or basket-weavers to be the class enemy? Of course not. Using the STASI model, anyone and everyone that commits a crime WILL be pressured to become an informant. In America, informants are given "consideration" for their cooperation with the police. Or, in other words, the more work you do as an informant, the less time in prison you will be subjected to. Again, as always, please review "STASI: East Germany's Secret Police" for a more detailed explanation into the concept of the creation and deployment of confidential informants from the criminal class.
In summation, my research has helped me discover at least some of the motivations of law enforcement as it pertains to the suppression of dissent, and it all comes down to one word. Fear. Yes, fear. The police, and by default any government that engages in STASI-style suppression, are terrified of their own citizens. How is this so? Please research the East German Uprising of 1953. During that event, the East German people very nearly overthrew their communist oppressors. Only the intervention of Soviet troops stopped the Germans from reuniting, but it also gave birth to the STASI in it's true form, and codified it's true mission. Suppress dissent BEFORE it happens. Or, in simple terms…though crime."
"In closing, let me share a story. A few weeks ago, after months of research, I conducted a very simple experiment. In order to confirm police involvement in my suppression of my political freedoms, or "gangstalking", I decided to reach out to a small number of individuals I strongly suspect of being police informants. I put together a simple yet colorful one-page flyer that says POLICE ARE 236% MORE LIKELY TO RAPE! and MOST VICTIMS OF POLICE RAPE ARE CHILDREN! and some other truly horrible statistics are are, oddly enough, completely true and correct, being taken from actual FBI crime statistics. I then included about 30 news reports of police raping infants, engaging in sex-slavery, raping multiple children, torturing and murdering their wives, and all manner of sordid acts. Can you guess what happened next? The vehicle traffic of informants at my home ceased…instantly. For years there has been near constant traffic here on this secluded little road that pretty much leads to nowhere. Now it is virtually empty, weeks later. I chose to stop passing out these flyers for now, as they hinder my ongoing investigation. It is hard to document something that is no longer happening, so be careful when you engage in counter-propaganda operations.
The concept of suppression of political dissent is based on keeping the target on the run, afraid, confused, depressed, and ultimately destroyed. It is all spelled out in black and white in STASI Directive 1/76. But there is a flaw in this program. A fatal flaw, in fact. What if the target refuses to be afraid? What if the target stops, and turns on his attackers. All bullies are cowards, and this includes the police. Once you turn around and give them some of their own medicine, they flee like the chicken-shits they are. Therefore, never leave the house without your hidden camera. Always walk up and engage suspected informants in friendly conversation, learn their faces. Let them know that you are watching them in the same manner as they are watching you. Eventually, one of them will make a critical mistake, and you will be there to record it all…then upload it to YouTube! When thousands of people do this, and collate their evidence, this archaic concept of "gangstalking", a dinosaur from the last century, will be exposed and obliterated in the same manner as Hitler, Mousilini, and Ceaușescu."

What are bullying behaviors, anyway? Bullying is described as repetitive, consistent behavior that harms, intimidates, offends, degrades or humiliates an employee, possibly in front of other employees, clients or customers. Since the behaviors are repetitive and varied they can exact a tremendous toll on the victim before they even realize the harm being done. By learning to recognize and then document behaviors that at first may seem mildly "disrespectful" and random, individuals can overtime recognize when bullying has occurred.
That definition is packed with meaning and if you have been a "victim" of bullying I invite you to take a deeper look at the implications personally. For me, it has taken deep introspection to realize that I had become a victim and have endured severe harm. Healing the wounds caused by bullying, such as lower self-esteem, and lack of confidence, takes time. If you're an employee who has been bullied I'd love to hear from you. You can email me confidentially at email@example.com
In the next blog, I'll talk about the specific behaviors, which individually might not be considered "bullying" but taken together in a repetitive manner designed to harm others does indeed constitute bullying. I now understand that my work for over 30 years helping people find and create their meaningful work, has been and is… healing work. My next steps are to own it and share it with others.

honestly, the only thing that's bothering me about my mom right now (and has always) is that she sends me a text on my paydays asking for money. She knows my pay schedule better than I do. I check the calendar and, sure enough, it's my pay day. This time, I ignored her for days. Finally, when I couldn't anymore without it being obvious that I ignored her, I responded that I spent the weekend not feeling well. She still said I had not given her an answer. My mom and I have a baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad money relationship. Most of my debt is because of her using my social. She's been a heavy gambler for 30+ years. We lost a house to foreclosure when I was 17 b/c she gambled with the mortgage. My dad's retirement was wiped out b/c she convinced him to take money out of it. So when I say bad, I mean bad. So it really bothers me when she asks for money even though now, unlike before she pays it back. But it really bothers me now that I'm expecting two different babies and paying for EVERYTHING on my own from rent to car payment to my kids' uniforms and schools supplies to EVERYTHING. She knows these babies can come any minute and I'll be up the sh*t creek without a paddle b/c no one can/will help me and my maternity leave is unpaid. So I'm clearly not the person to borrow money from. And it's like, why doesn't she get that?
But I hesitate saying anything because she's been so great to me this summer, getting my house in order and decorating (though I always ended up paying for decorations I never asked for). Sigh.
Sorry for the hijack. I definitely feel you on your mom. They'd be great except for one pretty big thing.

Radical Affections (Modern Contemporary Poetics)
- Essays on the Poetics of Outside
(E-bog, ePub)
Beskrivelse: In 1950 the poet Charles Olson published his influential essay 'Projective Verse' in which he proposed a poetry of 'open field' composition-to replace traditional cl... Læs mere osed poetic forms with improvised forms that would reflect exactly the content of the poem. The poets and poetry that have followed in the wake of the 'projectivist' movement-the Black Mountain group, the New York School, the San Francisco Renaissance, and the Language poets-have since been studied at length. But more often than not they have been studied through the lens of continental theory with the effect that these highly propositional, pragmatic, and adaptable forms of verse were interpreted in very cramped, polemical ways. Radical Affections is a study of six poets central to the New American poetry-Charles Olson, Robert Creeley, Robert Duncan, Jack Spicer, Robin Blaser, and Susan Howe-with an eye both toward challenging the theoretical lenses through which they have been viewed and to opening up this counter tradition to contemporary practice. Miriam Nichols highlights many of the impulses original to the thinking and methods of each poet: appeals to perceptual experience, spontaneity, renewed relationships with nature, engaging the felt world-what Nichols terms a 'poetics of outside'-focusing squarely on experiences beyond the self-regarding self. As Nichols states, these poets may well 'represent the last moment in recent cultural history when a serious poet could write from perception or pursue a visionary poetics without irony or quotation marks and expect serious intellectual attention.'

The Horseshoe Tavern
370 Queen Street West, Toronto, Canada
416 598 4753
The Horseshoe Tavern Toronto Reviews
17 reviews
It's not called "Legendary" for nothing! May 22, 2011
The Horseshoe Tavern dates back to as far as 1947. In those days the bar was pretty well known as being a kind of rough spot since a famous bank robber used to drink there.
Basically the Shoe (as we locals like to call it) is one of the only bars I know of to carry some heavy duty credentials in the music industry. During the 60s the bar was the go to spot to hear live shows. It catered to country, bluegrass and rockabilly music talent. Ive heard older folk reminisce about the times when they saw country legends like Willie Nelson and Conway Twitty perform there.
The bar still has its older patrons but a much younger and hipper crowd goes to the Shoe now. The bar works along side with Toronto radio stations, djs and promotors to give local bands a chance to perform. What was once a country rock bar now plays host to some of the best Canadian alterna/indie rock talent. Bands like The Trews, The Sadies, Arcade Fire and Franz Ferdinand all did their early Toronto shows at the Shoe.
The Shoe has maintained its rustic feel with a long wooden bar in the front followed by a pool table and a stage in the back room. My friends and I love going here to check out the newest bands or even support people we know who happen to be performing.
The best part about the Shoe is its notorious for being the location for "secret shows". Often times a big band will perform at a larger venue and then have a secret show somewhere else. Rolling Stones, Blue Rodeo and Melissa Ethridge are just a few to have performed a show here on the sly;)
The Shoe is most definitely the place to be during music festivals like North by NorthEast (NXNE) and Canadian Music Week. The back room is packed with people and the bar stays open til 4am . Woo Hoo!

Darren Wada
Class of 1987
What makes HBA special is the size. It's big enough where the kids can be competitive in sports, but it's small enough where if the kids work hard enough they can all participate in a sport. And for me, sports is huge. It really taught me a lot of life lessons and kept me out of trouble.
Over the years, I've seen HBA grow in its enrollment and facilities, but what I really like is that the mission has never changed. The emphasis has always been on Christ, and for me, that's the probably the most important thing. It doesn't matter about the amount of buildings, the amount of titles, or the amount of students they have. The main thing is that they emphasize Christ first.
HBA has taught me three things: to dream, to work hard and to persevere. It is our hope is that our daughters will have a similar experience.
