Two things I believe (amongst loads of others but for now…)
- we are created in God's image
- therefore each of us are designed to create
Excellent! Although I also know we are so very different from one another and some people may think they don't have an ounce of 'creativity' just because they don't draw, or write, or perform. Well, to me the 'fine arts' are not what defines creativity. A Wife putting together an amazing meal from what she has left in the cupboards at the end of a pay period – that is creativity! A Dad fixing a broken tractor with whatever they have on hand to finish the plowing – that is creativity. Every celebration, every note or letter to a loved one, every innovative initiative one takes to make someone's or his or her life better – it's creativity. Scientists, mathematicians, engineers all have a form of God-given creativity. I love it … creativity.
I also know we often don't live up to, use up, develop or even begin to touch what amazing gifts we've been given. I'm thinking we should pay attention to what God has endowed us with. In addition, I think we really should take to heart Christ's admonition towards this in the wonderful story of talents or gifts in Matthew 25:14-30 –
I love this part –
23 "His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!'
and I am not liking this part –
24 "Then the man who had received one bag of gold came. 'Master,' he said, 'I knew that you are a hard man, harvesting where you have not sown and gathering where you have not scattered seed. 25 So I was afraid and went out and hid your gold in the ground. See, here is what belongs to you.'
26 "His master replied, 'You wicked, lazy servant! So you knew that I harvest where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered seed? 27 Well then, you should have put my money on deposit with the bankers, so that when I returned I would have received it back with interest.
28 "'So take the bag of gold from him and give it to the one who has ten bags. 29 For whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them. 30 And throw that worthless servant outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.'
Why don't I like it? because so often I can see myself right where he was … being afraid to use my God-talents. I don't take advantage of opportunities, I don't develop, I don't trust what I have … and so I hide it. To protect me – from being hurt, from failing, from stretching … because some things just are hard. And sometimes, truth be told, I am probably too lazy to invest the time and energy it would take to develop whatever talent or gift it may be. Sometimes I know I am just shirking my responsibility … of being accountable for myself.
But right now I am going to share something and in sharing this it will also be a challenge to myself.
2 things really – because these are calling to my heart and I don't want to ignore them any more …
- I am going to get back into my art. Yep, I'm going to do it. I actually have started some little projects and I am even going to post pictures of what I'm up to (at my other blog). I think it's going to be fun!
- I am going to develop and write these books that have been 'written' in my head for years now. I think that is a little scary but exciting too.
Yep, since I've actually put it into writing maybe I'll get it done. One step at a time of course. But, that's all it really takes … and the journey begins … for me anyway.
Well, in writing this note, it may seem that I have deviated from the notes on the reading I've been in the middle of, but actually, the readings in the Old Testament are what prompted these feelings of unrest in my heart. For some reason I hadn't ever noticed how God delights in our really using these talents … because, whether it was in building the tabernacle or the temple, or managing super duper projects like the wall or tending for and managing all the stock and vineyards and offerings, over and over I am so impressed by God's respect and love for beauty, detail, precision, craftsmanship, and organization. People, people everywhere all excellent in their unique fields, using up what they are good at … to the glory of the Father.
On the other hand, if they weren't using what they had in His honor, but unto themselves or their false gods, then watch out! The vengeance of the Lord is mighty and fierce.
What about you? What God-given talent is laying hidden? what needs to be developed in your own life? what dreams were yours that have never been fulfilled? Or on the other hand … maybe you have grabbed hold of that special something and are using it to the fullest! How sweet… how wonderful to come to the end of one's life and know: I did it! I used it up and all to the Glory of the Father who gave us these special gifts.

Hail to Thee Guardian of the Watchtower of the East, the powers of water...we turn to you where the sun comes up, from where the power of light and refreshment come.
Everything that is born comes up in this direction -
the birth of babies, the birth of puppies,
the birth of ideas and the birth of friendship
Oh, Undines of the East, let there be light
On this Solstice Night. So Mote It Be !
Hail to Thee, Guardian of the Watchtower of the South, the powers of air...spirits of all that is warm and gentle and refreshing, we ask you to give us this spirit of growth, of fertility, of gentleness.
Caress us with a cool breeze when the days are hot.
Give us seeds on the wind, that the flowers, trees, and fruits of the earth may grow.
Give us the warmth of good friendships.
Oh, Sylphs of the South, let there be light
On this Solstice Night. So Mote It Be!
Hail to Thee, Guardian of the Watchtowers of the West, the powers of fire...where the sun goes down each day to come up the next, we turn to you in praise of sunsets, and in thanksgiving for changes.
You are the great colored sunset of the red west which illuminates us.
You are the powerful cycle which pulls us to transformation.
We ask for the blessings of the sunset.
Keep us open to life's changes.
Oh, Salamanders of the West, let there be light On this Solstice Night. So Mote It Be!
Hail to Thee, Guardian of the Watchtowers of the North, the powers of earth...we come to you and ask for the strength and power to bear what is cold and harsh in life. We come like the buffalo ready to receive the north winds that truly can be overwhelming at times.
Whatever is cold and uncertain in our life,
we ask you to give us the strength to bear it.
Do not let the winter sun fade away.
Oh, Gnomes of the North, let there be light On this Solstice Night. So Mote It Be!
(Invite the Lord and Lady)
HPS: Queen of the Moon, Queen of the Sun,
Queen of the Heavens, Queen of the Stars,
Queen of the Waters, Queen of the Earth,
Bring to us the Child of Promise!
It is the Great Mother who gives birth to Him;
It is the Lord of Life who is born again;
Darkness and tears are set aside when the Sun shall come up early!
Blessed Be!
(light the Goddess candle on the altar)
Everyone chants:
Queen of the Sun, Queen of the Fire,
Queen of the Stars and Queen of Night
Bring to us what we desire
Bring to us the Lord of Light!
(During this chant, 9 times, dance deosil, the HPS should stand out in the middle of the circle at the end with arms upraised and light the God candle)
Behold - the Lord of Light is reborn this night!
Blessed Be!
(HP then stands center to invoke the God)
We invoke Thee
Antlered Ancient One,
both Lord and Victim
of the Winter's Hunt;
giver of Thy flesh
for the love of our lives,
in this,
Thy season of Sacrifice.
We invoke Thee,
shape-shifting Solstice Stag,
Thy hoof prints brushed away by driven snow
as Thou guardest the pathways to the Invisible.
Winter-reigning forest-phantom,
be here among us
as we celebrate
this turning of the Solar Wheel!
Blessed Be!
(part 1- priestess)
Open thy ears to the voice of the Ancient God, the Father of Time, who is older than the beginning. Many are His names: Zeus, Dagda, Gog, Lugh, Osiris, Cernunnos, Ra: always He is the Great Father.
(part 2 - priest)
I am the Shining One; and my dominion is the golden orb of the Sun. After the darkness has soothed the Earth and rested it's people, it is I who bring forth a new beginning and a fresh awakening. My heat is the warmth of Life and my fire is the burning of desire in the hearts of my worshippers.
(part 3 - priest)
I am the wonder of the blue sky which lifts up the birds in flight. Hear my voice in the breezes and cool winds which whisper through the trees.
(part 4 - priest)
My dominion also is the green forest and fertile field, for I am the Lord of the hunt and the beasts of the wild are my children. When ye walk in the forest, feel my presence, for I am the life of every blade of grass and every walking creature. My head is crowned with twin horns, for I am the White Stag and in me is the spirit of the wild beast.
(part 5 - priestess)
Heed well the voice of the Horned God, for together we are the Twin Pillars which support the Universe.
(part 6 - priest)
When ye speak my name, do so with joy, for I am the divine King, reborn to lead my people into victory and prosperity.
(part 7 - priest)
I also am the Wise old Man, the counsel of years, ever surrendering the wisdom of experience. Within every man, I am manifest and my works are strong throughout the world.
(part 8 - priest)
I am the double edged sword, and my nature is two fold. for as I am the brightness of Summer, so am I the cold darkness of Winter. And as the Lady gives you birth, so am I the Dark God who in death returns ye to her. But fear me not, for in death of the body there is rest and peace of the soul. Comfort and consolation are my gifts, to heal the weary spirit after life's passing. Cast away sorrow and rejoice; for I am the keeper of the Gate of the Summerland, wherein the wondrous Garden of the Gods, ye are reunited with those who have gone before.
(part 9 - priest)
And herein is my greatest mystery, for as I am life that leads to death, so do I lead again to life, for it is I who brings ye to the Mother, to be born again of the Earth, for behold, life's eternal, and I am He that changes and yet remains unchanged.
(Great Rite done by HP and HPS using these words
As the Athame is to the Male,
So the Chalice is to the Female.
Here where sword and cup unite,
Witnessed by the sacred night
Within the charmed Circle's bound
Behold the Holy meaning's found
I am in thee, and thee in me
That is the deepest Mystery.
Blessed Be!

Violet {2.5 Yrs}Leave a comment
October 13, 2014 by texashekmans
Violet is just so grown up! Her vibrant personality continues to shine bright in this house as she is an adoring and sweet older sister, as well as a feisty strong-willed toddler who is trying to figure out where her boundaries are. Lots of ups and downs each day of course, but it is such a blessing to be her Mom.
Here are some updates on her size/growth lately…
Size: She is in all 3T clothing, and some 4T as well. She wears size 9 shoes! Crazy.
Teeth: Her 2year molars haven't even started coming in yet, so we've had a really nice 6+ month break from all symptoms of teething. Whew.
What she's doing:
-Loving Disney princesses!
-Still enjoys painting, especially at the Thinkery (Austin Children's Museum)
-Swimming at the YMCA with her Dad on Saturdays
-Playing outside in the backyard
-Playing tag
-Singing songs, and sometimes she even makes them up on her own
-Reading books to us (ones that are repetitive and that she's memorized) or to her animals/dolls
-Wearing dresses! This is probably because of how much she loves princesses right now, but she is really into wearing dresses. Always prefers that over shorts or pants.
-Loving her "kitty". My Mom "Gigi" bought this pink stuffed kitten for Violet at the hospital gift shop a few days after Ezra was born. Violet has slept with it every night/nap since and she is most attached to it than any other stuffed animal right now.
-Saying "no" , yellling, and/or bossing us and/or her friends around. Ehh hmm. Not surprising but certainly not the most fun part of parenting her right now. As most 2.5yr olds are, she is super strong-willed and very often trying to demand her own way regardless of what we tell her. Lots of spankings/time-outs/time-ins are happening…and its hard. But overall she seems to be slowly learning that Mom and Dad are in control and that she can trust us enough to obey us, as we trust Jesus enough to obey Him.
-When not throwing a tantrum, she is often saying super sweet things, and just generally talking up a storm. A few nights ago after our family neighborhood walk, Scott was holding her and I went up to give her a hug too. She squeezed my neck and said to us "I love the both of you". Adorable or what?!? We love you too, sweet Violet. 🙂

Carrie on a photo shoot?
Oh yeah, she's hit the big time, and the emerging author is getting branded on the side of a bus. And she gets to keep the dress.
A naked dress, Charlotte says.
And Carrie is wearing it on her first official date with Big. As Charlotte prattles on about the rules, Miranda more liberally warns against first date shenanigans, and Samantha advocates doing what you like, when you like it because it could all end at any time.
So we see Carrie try on a bit of Samantha, and she sleeps with Big. She immediately begins to ponder the ramifications when Big suggests Sichuan at a greasy Chinese restaurant. She sees a long time friend there on a date, but he strangely refuses to introduce his mystery girl. What's going on?
Something is something going on with Miranda. She snags a date after assaulting him in kickboxing class. Go girl.
Carrie later gets the deets on her friend and his new girl. They met after a breakup, but he's keeping her on the down low because he doesn't think she's all that hot. Despite his comfort with her, and the amazing sex, he's ashamed of her mediocrity. What a douche.
So is secret sex a thing? Is it okay to be ashamed?
No, says Samantha. Not about sex, and certainly not about Carrie's sexy photo on the side of a bus. She decides they should have a party. She also decides that they should confront Charlotte and her rigid rules with her own secret encounter.
The proud Protestant princess had a fling with a seductive Jewish artist. Ooh, so scandalous.
Later on Big calls, and to Carrie's relief he suggests another date. Her relief is shattered when Big awkwardly fails to introduce her to a friend of his on the street. Was Big ashamed of her? They returned to the Chinese restaurant, the seedy dive full of ashamed discretion.
Relief = gone.
Miranda, having spent the night with her date, becomes a creeper and rummages through his things. Really, Miranda? You're a lawyer. This guy enjoying a bit of spanking pornography isn't a big deal compared to violating someone's privacy.
The street party is a bust. Big doesn't come. Carrie's friend gets what he deserves when he reveals his secret gal dumped him. And Carrie's bus arrives with a graffiti penis drawn next to her face.
This is when the girls go crazy.
Miranda scares off her date by joking about his fetish. Good one. Really. Sigh…
Then Carrie gets tipsy and confronts Big about his attempts to keep her a secret. Big explains away all of Carrie's doubts. So maybe things are good between them after all. Maybe they aren't just people who have sex, but people who have something more serious between them.
Whether or not Mr. Big is being genuine, this episode is genuinely an example of the show getting on track. Sure there are some misfires, but overall the plot of the series advances, and the girls confront things in their sex lives that draw us into their struggles.

It stands for "world of photography." It's free; anyone can join, then upload their pictures to Woophy's database. Although it is difficult to click on a particular place on the map, it does have a search feature which greatly facilitates the process of locating a place.
Wall Street Journal Article about it…
The Ground-Level Internet Map

Woophy, an acronym for World of Photography, allows users to zoom in to eye level and gves a human element to Internet maps.
Instead of orbiting satellites, the site employs a volunteer army of amateur shutterbugs and travel enthusiasts to document the far corners of the world.

The Netherlands-based site combines a geographic database from the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency with a simple world map that anchors each photo to its global place of origin.
The database contains the name and location of virtually every recognizable population center, identified on the map by latitude and longitude.
Every city and village chronicled by a submission to Woophy's photo archive is marked on the map with a small square.
Click on a square and thumbnail-sized images of that location appear in a menu at the right margin of the map.
Select an image with another click and a larger version of the snapshot materializes over the map, with more detailed information about the precise location and subject of the photograph.
Both the photographer and any registered viewer can leave comments about the image, and users can even asses its quality with a simple rating system.
"We realized right away that, in terms of technical resources, we couldn't compete with Google Earth. We couldn't have satellites," says Joris van Hoytema, half of the Dutch brother duo that started Woophy.
"So we figured our unique idea would be photography — showing people on the other side of the world what your place looks like."
Mr. van Hoytema traces Woophy's origins to an overheated venture-capital pitch made at the tail end of the dot-com boom.
In 1998, Mr. van Hoytema and his brother, Hoyte, had an idea he now describes as "great but maybe a bit unrealistic" — a sprawling Web-based map depicting every building on every street in the world.
Unlike Woophy, which stops at visual representation, this service would have functioned as a sort of geographic address book for the Internet age, with a new system of email and domain names based on the street address of real world buildings.
"You should have an email address that is more like a real address," Mr. van Hoytema says of the original idea.
"You can find the address of your neighbor, you can find his name and phone number, but you cannot find his email address. Why is that?"
By 2003, this dot-com dream percolated into a business plan that found an audience with Dutch IT visionary Eckart Wintzen.
His response, according to Mr. van Hoytema, was one of regret that the brothers hadn't come to him for funding several years earlier.
With hopes of venture capital dashed, the brothers spent the next two years scaling back their vision to a more a realistic scope.
But the general concept remained: "We wanted to make a connection between real geography — the geography you know because you walk in it — and virtual geography on the Internet."
For geography obsessives like the van Hoytemas, tracking the Web site's spread across the real world must have been especially satisfying.
Working in the spare time with the help of a professional designer, Marcel Geenevasen, the first beta version of Woophy went live on March 1, 2005.
Six weeks later, a Hungarian Web site took note and photos of Hungary suddenly populated the Woophy map.
"For a time," Mr. van Hoytema notes, "it was our most densely photographed country."
Next came a slew of submissions from Israeli photographers, followed by unexplained popularity in the Baltic region, South Korea and then New Zealand.
"Currently," he explains, "Woophy is very popular in France."
By December, a rush of 13,000 unique visitors in the span of a few hours brought down Woophy's overmatched server and forced an upgrade.
Now, after almost a year online, Woophy counts over 5,700 members who have uploaded more than 60,000 photos of some 8,300 village and cities world-wide.
Taken together, photos in the Woophy archive are viewed 2.2 million times each month.
The site's map has a heavy European tilt, with much of U.S. still open.
The site's spread and international user base have a lot to do with the no-frills map interface.
"We wanted to make it visual and associative," Mr. van Hoytema says.
"We thought about adding a help file, but the idea was that it wouldn't be necessary."
Woophy's reach across the globe may be restrained by one practical problem: "To fully enjoy our site, you need broadband. So there is that limit," said Mr. van Hoytema.

How to End Up with Quality Medical Courier
When it comes to the transportation of medical specimens, sensitive records and blood products, the present of the best medical courier will be asked for. This is critical. This is when finding a quality courier is evident for they would provide clinics and hospitals with the care required. This is the best if the right people are found. The offices of doctors, hospitals and clinics are always defaulted with medical centers. These are equipped with lab specimens. There are other items and records of patients here that are seen on a daily basis. The couriers would be the one to handle sensitive and urgent packages. They can do this with special qualifications too. To locate the best service in the area is challenging in itself already. This should be done with the observance of the overall function of the medical centers. This should transpire in the area.
How to Find the Best Local Courier Service
When it comes to locating the best local courier service which would transport medical items, this may be obtained by searching over the internet. You may anchor your finding in your whole area. Medical facilities have a yield of their short list. They do this as much as possible. This is how the job may be done. There are also couriers out there that would market directly to that of the medical facilities. This is why calling or visiting a courier may be understood. This can be a way to connect to a service on an area.
If you are planning to contact a medical courier, there are various questions that you should not shy away in raising. These are all to be inquired if you are wanting to hire a quality service of course. One question should be about the route of their company. Please know if they are capable of accommodating multiple deliveries on a daily basis. If a route is dedicated, this would include the locations which are vital to be mapped out all the time.
You also have to know the proper clearances they own. If there are certifications presented, that would be much better. These are required in the transportation of the kind of goods there is. To have an HIPAA would say a lot. This is for sure. They should also be blood borne pathogen trained. This has to be tested and they have to be in possession of any trainings that are required for the items including medical instrument transport. This would speak of the courier service quality.
Checking the kinds of vehicles available here is also going to be an option for the right choice to be stumbled upon. The safety of the company must also be one of the most concerns. If there are upgrades, that should only be fine. These are for the violations and the like just in case. Safety concerns must also be thought upon. These would have to be reflected on the records of the driver. Do not forget.

Hey y'all,
Given the long time between posts, I figured I'd- in rare form- post something brief!
We're in Florida! And we've got a fourth, our dear friend Lake, along with us for awhile! We're currently staying at a fancy abode with our friend Jen in Port Orange, near Daytona. We've had a couple of uncharacteristically chilly nights, but the 80-degree sun is on the way and we're ready for it! We even swam in the ocean and the water was… WARM.
As camping and general bummin' about will be made easier by the weather, we ought to have much more time to not only bask in the rays, but also reflect and read and write about all that reflecting.
I will tell you(s) this. So far, we have been inundated with possibility, are repeatedly drenched in kindness, and remain generally bubbling over with enjoyment about a life with no jobby-jobs, no money (save for a few buskin' bucks), and nowhere else to be except that ever-elusive, yet now seemingly more tangible, present tense.
Of course challenges are ahead of us, and the world isn't all goodies and gumdrops. But certainly, there's a great deal of goodness. And I, more than ever, believe that if we take the time to realize it in each other, if we live in a way as to bring it forth from each other, if we give time and space for understanding, that the world will be full of more goodness than we might dare to bet is possible. Certainly, it is at the least possible for us to, in our own realities, forge our own worlds where, whether it be in line with or in spite of societal norms, our dreams may flourish and we may live them out.
PS Food, in the United States, is not in short supply. We (as a society) throw out almost as much as we (in our society) actually eat. We (the four of us) have yet to experience hunger or hardship even close to resembling that of Somalians.

Question about Rode NT-2000 Professional Microphone
Posted by bkronline on
I appreciate the comment, here's what I did to fix it.
- Opened up the body and head of the microphone.
- Very carefully used compressed air to remove dust on both large diaphragms (you could easily tear the diaphragms, be very very careful).
- Reseated the grounding screws along the pc board.
- I also repaired the top foam piece which connects to the top of the diaphragm assembly and presses against the grille assembly when fitted together. This was torn (still soft and usable), this alone could have been the cause of the issues by transferring unwanted vibrations directly to the diaphragm frame. Using crazy glue worked like a charm. While inside I felt comfortable enough doing some basic cleaning which could only help.
Before opening the microphone, I of course checked all of the obvious troubleshooting techniques and everything pointed directly to the microphone itself. I have three of these microphones, all of the same age, and only one exhibited these sorts of issues.
If the above did not work I would highly suspect the polar pattern potentiometer as there has been known issues. This would normally cause a different noise than I was hearing though. Since while moving the potentiometers while listening I did not hear any variants in the fluttering noises I was experiencing, this solidified concerns of grounding, dust, or even a loose part inside.
In conclusion, maybe I got lucky, but I was comfortable in my ability to troubleshoot and come to a reasonable solution that ended up working. Anything beyond the above I would have sent it in for dealer repair. I'm an audio engineer, not a microphone repair guru, it all worked out in the end. :)
Here's some pictures during the repair: http://gallery.mac.com/briankross#100570
This mic likely has a built in preamp. BEFORE you open the mic, verify that your pahntom power from your preamp is clean.
If you are unfamiliar with phantom power for mics, google it to find a treatise.
Noisy or failing phantom power could be your problem. Also the preamp in the mic could have a problem rather than the diaphram. Dust would NOT normally cause what you are describing.
Posted on Sep 30, 2009
Testimonial: "See comments above."
It was likely the foam thing toching the diaphram rather than the dust unless the dust was in clumps, given your description of the sound. I would be very careful using crazy glue as the glue is brittle and slightly water soluble. A fairly safe pliable glue that can be removed when needed I have found is the 3m weatherstrip adhesive used for automotive purposes..
SOURCE: I have freestanding Series 8 dishwasher. Lately during the filling cycle water hammer is occurring. How can this be resolved

Over the years, universities have adopted a formula for hiring presidents. A university typically assembles a "search committee"for which, sometimes, there could even be an advisory committee. Usually people who think they are kingmakers or those who have nothing better to do sign up for these activities. (As you can imagine, I have never bothered with these!) And then there is that other piece in the formula: a search firm. Headhunters.
This is the formula that both the campuses put into place. So, will the presidents be the transformative messiahs that the campuses were waiting for?
there is no evidence that the use of a search firm improves the quality or longevity of administrative leaders compared with those chosen the old-fashioned way, by an internal committee, the board of trustees, or the appointing officer based on crony politics. The same lack of evidence applies to the promotion of inside candidates.There is no evidence. Yet, search firms are very much integral to this formula. To ask "why?" means that we have not understood higher education. Pretty much nothing we do anymore in higher education is driven by evidence. Do we have evidence that student learning improves with gazillion dollar gyms? Are student graduation rates better because of the fancy foods in the cafeterias? Who cares for evidence!
Underlying the perceived necessity for a search firm is the notion that each college is unique, a highly dubious proposition.Go on, am listening.
Several years ago I perused ads in The Chronicle to develop a brief list of commonly cited characteristics desired of candidates for almost any job. Here they are: the ability to articulate a vision, a collaborative working style, capacity to lead and inspire diverse groups, a commitment to excellence, superb communication skills, distinguished scholarly and professional achievement, well-developed interpersonal skills, an ability to work effectively with a wide range of constituents, and a commitment to diversity.I tell ya, it is the Lake Wobegon thing all over again, where all our college presidents have "the ability to articulate a vision, a collaborative working style, capacity to lead and inspire diverse groups, a commitment to excellence, superb communication skills, distinguished scholarly and professional achievement, well-developed interpersonal skills, an ability to work effectively with a wide range of constituents, and a commitment to diversity."
Given the huge number of applications that many ads attract, it is comforting to know the easy availability of people with a commitment to excellence and an abundance of natural charm.
So, you see, it should be sufficient for an ad to read simply, "Wanted: President," with the name of the institution. Applicants could be evaluated according to the knowledge revealed about the institution and the noting of relevant personal qualifications. Colleges have sufficient talent, academic and otherwise, to carry out the functions of a reasonable search with adherence to public-policy requirements, without the time and expense of search-firm mythologies.But, of course, that is not how we will ever do it.
And then, almost always, even before the proverbial honeymoon phase is over, even those who participated in the search committee and advisory committee start muttering about the new president. Then, as Robert Browning put it, "And the muttering grew to a grumbling; And the grumbling grew to a mighty rumbling." It is a rare university president who is loved and respected more than otherwise.
While many of my personal experiences were painful, over all my sardonic mode prevailed, buttressed by my love for a line from Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice: "you shall seek all day ere you find them, and when you have them, they are not worth the search."I suppose it is a good thing that most people in the academic world and in the search firms don't read Shakespeare anymore ;)

Good news is hard to come by in the world of parrot conservation. I believe we need to keep our spirits high and our thoughts positive so we may help more birds around the world. While some people can be urged to take action when notified of the dire situations many parrots are in, others do better with positive results that show change is possible.
So celebrate that the government of Bolivia has set aside 1.4 million acres of Blue-throated macaw habitat, home to 35% of known wild population, including 50% of breeding pairs. Working with the World Parrot Trust and the government, the local inhabitants chose to create this sanctuary and help the macaws turn around their slide toward extinction. People do make a difference. http://www.cageandaviarybirds.co.uk/news/latest-news/1499-bolivia-s-boost-for-blue-throats.html
On page 14 of PsitaScene Magazine, put out by the World Parrot Trust, a census of Yellow-Crested Cockatoos took place in April of 2016. While there were signs of natural fires that had destroyed the preferred gebang palm trees, the party counted 71 of these extremely rare cockatoos and many active nesting sites in half a day. This is on Komodo Island, part of the Lesser Sunda chain of islands in Indonesia. Komodo National Park was established in 1980 to protect the Komodo dragons, also endangered. While it's known that small dragons and many snakes on the islands eat cockatoo eggs and chicks, and there are healthy raptors in the area, the cockatoos are benefiting from the protection from humans and habitat destruction. The summary of the survey showed that the populations are increasing, but could benefit from nest boxes that would be safe from reptiles and reforesting burned areas. https://issuu.com/worldparrottrust/docs/ps_autumn_2016?mode=window
At last, a total ban is in place on trade in wild African gray parrots. Congo and Timneh grays are highly coveted birds because they are smart and may talk as well as make interesting sound effect noises. Their intelligence means that taking them from the wild is close to kidnapping. They suffer pain, trauma, and lasting emotional damage from being removed from their family and flock, stuffed into a small container, and carted for miles with little to no care. Trying to appease officials but keep some trade open, a limit was placed on the number of birds that could be exported. The species has already gone extinct or survives in very low numbers in Angola, Benin, Burundi, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Liberia, Nigeria, Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania, and Togo. Only a total ban empowers law enforcement to act and remove any birds found in the possession of poachers. The next step will be to improve habitats and stop the destruction of forests in the Congo basin. http://wwf.panda.org/?279870/African-Grey-Parrots
Some issues with South American forests and parrot populations revolve around the people in charge in the area. The Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) took an amazing step and helped two conservation groups, the Loro Parque Fundación (LPF) of Spain and Fundación ProAves of Colombia. They allowed the groups to access the land where yellow-eared parrots nested in and feed on Ceroxylon quindiuense palms. Previously, the Vatican stepped in to convince the Catholic population to use a different leaf for Palm Sunday and Easter services. Now, it certainly seems Divine Grace has touched these parrots. The population count increased by 50% due to the expanded areas where they could make observations. http://www.parrotsdailynews.com/number-of-the-wild-yellow-eared-parrots-has-been-increased-50-times-in-the-last-17-years/
I like to look into conservation issues at least once per month. As an aviculturist, I enjoy having avian companions, breeders, watching wild birds, and helping with conservation whenever I can. If you know of some improvement in conservation, please share it in the comments. Also if you are a fan of many types of birds, you can join us on Facebook! The page does revolve around North County Aviculturists in Vista, CA. But everyone is welcome to join. https://www.facebook.com/groups/428122157356577/
Thanks for reading, I'll be back next Sunday.

Child Abuse
Looks like that little story I linked to yesterday, about the prisoner abuse in Iraq including children, is starting to expand.
This person posted video (I don't think that's the kind of thing I could watch, myself.) and had other links to offer.
Still no mention of it in the So-Called Liberal Media here in the USofA, though.

My choice for Omega-3
Getting Omega-3 source from Wild Antarctic Krill seems safer than most pure fish oil based solutions. Superior absorbtion of Krill oils with sublemented Fish Oil Omega-3 complex seems to cover all bases. Softgel capsule is quite large, so may not work with children. NOTE: Krill oil is very stable and will last up to two years. However, do not store in the freezer or refrigerator. Extended exposure to temperatures higher than 100 degrees or lower than 50 degrees diminish the effectiveness of the phospholipid ingredients.

Intensity Rocks!
Concentration + Dedication = Intensity!
I took a day off yesterday, in case you noticed there was no journal entry. No, I didn't feel lazy or somehow lack the drive at this stage in the game to make the commitment. But having worked out ten days in a row (I added the workout at the resort on Sunday morning, remember?), my body was telling me to take a day to heal. When your body tells you it's time to take a break, you need to listen.
This morning, my body told me it was ready to continue, so after breakfast and Bible study and the arrival of my contractor who is installing a new rear walk in the backyard, I got down on the floor and began with 30 V-ups, 50 Bicycles, and then moved to the exercise ball for 180 situps.
I opted for a "Top Down" approach to the weights, and rather than trying to explain it, I'll give you a list of what I did, in order.
Bench Press – 1 set close grip, 1 set wide grip, 1 set close grip, ½ set wide grip = 35 reps. Target Muscles – Chest (Pecs), shoulders (Delts) and arms.
Seated Rows – 4 sets = 40 reps. Target Muscles – Trapezius, Shoulders, Latissimus Dorsi (back), abdominal, and arms.
Shoulder Flyes – 3 sets = 30 reps. Target Muscles – Deltoids, Trapezius, arms
Shrugs – 4 sets = 40 reps. Target Muscles – Deltoids, Trapezius, arms.
Dumbbell Curls – 3 sets = 30 reps. Target Muscles – Biceps, Triceps, Forearms
Dumbbell Squats – 4 sets = 40 reps. Target Muscles – Gluteus Maximus, Hamstrings
Standing Calf Raises – 4 sets = 40 reps. Target Muscles – Calves.
Seated Leg Extensions – 4 sets = 40 reps. Target Muscles – Forward upper thighs.
I've added the term "Target Muscles" so you will see what muscles you are trying to work with a particular exercise. But I want you to also realize that those aren't the only muscles being worked. The human body is a excellent machine, designed to coordinate any movement with a symphony of musculature. When you do a bench press, for example, you are mainly working the chest, shoulders and arms, but the back and abs are called upon to keep you stable in the movement. Even your legs and feet can help you stabilize, although I usually recommend you keep them off the floor so you're not tempted to use them. In order to use your legs to stabilize during a bench press, you have to arch the small of your back. Not a good move.
The top five exercises in the above list emphasize the upper body, working from front to back, larger to smaller muscles. The reasons I kept the shoulder flyes and curls to 3 sets are both personal and professional. I have mentioned before that, due to an accident when I was a younger man, my left shoulder now contains zero cartilage. I tend to be a little cautious when exercising, since the point is to end up fit, not in an emergency room or the operating room. But the professional reason is just as sound. The arms and shoulders have already been worked through the bench press and the seated rows, so now you are simply polishing off what you started. Fewer exercises for them does not mean you have worked them any less.
The bottom three exercises emphasize the lower body, and since they are always followed by at least ten minutes of aerobic exercise on the Gazelle, three exercises are all I need to achieve both the fitness and weight loss goals I have in mind.
Speaking of the Gazelle, my session lasted eleven minutes today, the time it takes to listen to the first three songs from the Evanescence album I have on my MP3 player. The cool down was a pleasant walk in the backyard with about 16 ounces of juice. Bright and sunny and a bit brisk, but felt so good to cool down after a very intense workout.
What made it intense was concentration. When I do my bench press, I close my eyes as I am preparing to lift the bar off the brackets and picture the muscles I want to work in my mind. As I am doing the reps, I have a mental image of the muscle stretching across my chest, then contracting as I push it back up again. The muscle moves along with that image, and by the end of the exercise, I can feel the muscle swelling up with blood. It is a very pleasant feeling, indeed.
I do all my movements like this. It assures you are working the entire muscle through its range of motion and giving it the maximum intensity. And Maximum Intensity with Dedication yields results.
Give it a try. I promise you will not be disappointed.
I hope you are having a blessed day.

Microsoft adds Python to deep learning toolkit
Microsoft is adding Python language support to its open source deep learning toolkit for developers. The kit, formerly known as Computational Network Toolkit (CNTK) and now called Microsoft Cognitive Toolkit, goes into a beta release today and features reinforcement learning for neural networking. The Python backing extends the toolkit beyond C++ development for better accessibility. C++ "was good for really serious programmers," said XD Huang, Microsoft chief speech scientist, but "our mission is simple: to democratize AI," not only for web developers, but for different disciplines, even sociologists. Python support will offer extensiveness, expressiveness, and flexibility. With reinforcement learning, an agent discovers the correct way to do something, such as navigate a room or form a sentence, via trial and error. A neural network is trained to interact with an environment…

Participate In T.G.I. Fridays Guest Satisfaction Survey
TGI Fridays is an American long chain full of the restaurants based all over the world, providing some excellent food, both in the dine-in and then take out ways. It was established back on March 15, 1965, about 52 years ago, in the New York City, New York, U.S. It is headquartered in the Dallas, Texas, U.S.
How You Can Participate In T.G.I. Fridays Guest Satisfaction Survey
Surveys are important, why? Because they can help the companies known their strength and the weaknesses time by time. With surveys, the companies give their customers the chance to give their all-important opinions and ideas of where the company stands at the moment and what else is there to be done to grow it even more.
It also helps in determining if there is any need whatsoever to develop any new program or update the previous ones. Here is how to take one:
- Find the official website of the company on the internet, search it using a search engine or try it your way. Once found, get on it and take the survey on the survey page.
- It is the link to get to the official website and then forwarded itself to the survey page: www.talktofridays.com
- When the page is fully loaded, you will see a form with two fields; you need to fill them both.
- To fill them, you need a receipt from the company that you have from one of the stores you visited.
- Find the survey code written at the top of the receipt, type that in the first blank field once you find it.
- Now, there is time located at the top of the receipt as well; you need to type it in the field that lies below it.
Click on the red "Start" button below the form now that will lead you to the full of questions page. You need to suggest answers to these questions one by one before submitting them back to the company at the end.

Our student senate put in way more work than anyone expected of them, getting some fantastic speakers and even convincing medical students to voluntarily attend anything. Normal classes were cancelled for first- and second-year students and third- and fourth-years were excused from their clerkships, should they want to attend. That's roughly 800 people alone. At most, I think we had maybe 125 people in the auditorium at once (for the "Watson" talk, if you were wondering), but to be honest that was way more than most people, including myself, expected.
The presenters were, on average, great speakers with interesting areas of research. Here's a rundown of the day and highlights I took away from the talks:
8:30 – 9:00 Introduction by Deans and Chancellor Halperin
- As he himself so eloquently put, there is a difference between saying a few words and having a few words to say. Chancellor Halperin once again gave a surprising mini-speech on the merits of keeping an open mind, of disregarding one's societal station, of gracefully handling criticism, of branching out into many fields, and of doing all this at any age - all as tied together through the life and actions of Benjamin Franklin. Bold, interesting and well-spoken as always.
9:00 – 9:30 "Unnatural Killer Cells: TRAIL-coated Leukocytes that Kill Cancer Cells in the Circulation" by Dr. Michael King (Cornell University)
- This was a great research presentation on a new way to defend against metastasis of cancers by, in a way, arming the body's natural immune defense cells with a cancer-targeting system. Specifically, they trick cancer cells into sticking to the white blood cells by adding a blood vessel protein to the cell membrane and then they give the white blood cells apoptosis-inducing weaponry to kill the cells that stick to the trap.
9:35 – 10:05 "Early Life Microbiome and Obesity" by Dr. Martin Blaser (New York University)
- This guy is a rockstar in biomedical research. He is the head of the Human Microbiome Project, the follow up to the human genome project that seeks to quantify and categorize the various combinations of bacteria that inhabit our bodies with us. He is a phenomenal speaker and made a solid case for misuse of antibiotics having a leading role in the current obesity epidemic, among others. Here he is in a Daily Show interview* promoting his recent book.
*I'm not actually a big fan of Jon Stewart as a science-interviewer, and think this could have been better a better interview, but still it's cool that I just saw that guy in my classroom yesterday, after watching him on TV a few months ago.
10:15 – 11:00 Public Health Panel on (paraphrasing) issues in primary/geriatric care and incarcerated populations by Drs. Pedro Laureano and Kenneth Knapp (NYMC) moderated by our dean of public health, Dr. Robert Amler.
- This was a rather blah panel, but the speakers did bring up some interesting points. Specifically, I had never really thought about the burden that unhealthy ex-prisoners put on their communities when they are released and how poorly we take care of them once they are.
11:05 – 11:35 "SpeechOmeter: a Google Glass Application" by Mansoor Pervaiz (Northeastern University)
- This was a cool presentation by a PhD student on an app they made for the Google Glass platform where they could monitor and modify the speech patterns of people with disabilities that cause speech pathologies. An example he gave is of how parkinson's patients often lose a sense of how loud they are talking and with this technology, you can give them a big colorful display in the corner of their eye with volume and speed feedback. The patient can then get instant impartial feedback and the clinician can get a recording to see if the speech therapy techniques are working, are being used correctly, or need to be further adjusted.
11:40 – 12:10 "Updates in Obesity Medicine; Epidemiology, Metabolic Disease, and Clinical Applications" by Dr. Rekha Kumar (Weill Cornell Medical College)(and NYMC alumna)
- This was a fairly simple description of the new, mostly pharmacologic options for treating severe obesity, as given by a fairly recent alum of our school who now practices on the upper east side in an obesity focused office.
12:10 – 1:10 Residency/Specialty Fair and Lunch
- Lunch had an impressive turnout by many of the dozens of residencies that our school offers. Students could roam around and ask about the pros/cons of different specialties and learn what they need to do to better their chances of matching, come fourth-year.
1:15 – 2:15 "Watson: The Jeopardy! Challenge and Applications to Healthcare" by Dr. Eric Brown (IBM)
- This was easily the coolest talk. The project leader of IBM's Watson supercomputer came to talk about the progress toward healthcare applications for Watson's powerful information systems. This is of course the computer that beat Ken Jennings and... that other guy in Jeopardy a few years ago. The remarkable thing about that feat was the ability of this computer system to navigate the complex and purposefully tricky wording of Jeopardy clues and then search a vast store of knowledge in just a few seconds to come up with an accurate answer.
- In healthcare we have the problem that there is far more research done and patient information recorded than is reasonable for even a whole team of doctors to parse through in any reasonable amount of time. Enter Watson, who can almost instantly sort through the entirety of medical literature and years of patient charts to offer up a answer to a question and explain its reasoning, This could be not just powerful, but indispensable in coming years.
- Our school has actually been part of the team training Watson's new healthcare algorithm. Every time the still-training Watson is given a query, a panel of experts with rate how well it did and provide feedback on how it could have been better. Then the computer scientists try to figure out how to incorporate that feedback into Watson's processes. So that's cool!
2:20 – 2:50 "Schizophrenia and Depression as Diseases of the Mind?" by Dr. Liah Greenfeld (Boston University)
- This was simply a weird and poorly articulated talk. Either of those is excusable, but having both made it hard to even sit through. Eh, it happens.
2:55 - 3:25 "Biomaterials and Clinical Applications: New Approaches to the Prevention of Lung Tumor Recurrence Following Surgical Resection" by Dr. Mark Grinstaff (Boston University)
- This poor fellow lost most of his audience do to the preceding train-wreck of a talk, which is unfortunate because it was an interesting subject. The goal of this research was to come up with a way to help prevent the recurrence of tumors that are surgically removed. The age old problem in this area is that the more you cut out, the less the chance of missing one or more still-cancerous cell. But the more you cut, the less healthy organ there is left for the patient to use during and after recovery. Dr. Grinstaff came up with an idea to coat the surgical wound with a nanoparticle infused mesh. The tiny particles are then slowly absorbed by the surrounding tissue where they release powerful chemotherapy directly to the worrisome tissue. And rather than lose all of that tissue, the chemo selectively targets the cancer cells, allowing more of the tissue to remain healthy.
3:35 – 3:55 "Toward Optimal Neuroprosthetics" by Dr. Ramana Vinjamuri (Stevens Institute of Technology)
- This was a cool talk about the current state of prosthetics regarding brain machine interfaces (BMIs) that allow the wearer to move the mechanised limb just with their thoughts. We went through the various current options and talked about the balance between invasiveness and utility. For example, though you may be able to wear a funny looking hat to open and close a hand, you can fully move and grasp in three dimensions if you get a rather cumbersome implant that needs to be plugged in to large wires through your skull. Hopefully, time will blend the best of both worlds.
4:00 – 4:30 "Virtual Reality and Video Games for Stroke Rehabilitation" by Dr. Judith Deutsch (Rutgers)
- Finally, we heard about how video games and virtual reality are being used to aid in physical therapy and rehabilitation. One of the more amusing takeaways was that it is often easier for engineers in this field to wait for the next generation of commercial video game consoles to come out rather than design and build their own custom equipment/software. Then when platforms like the XBOX Kinect release the specifications for designing custom games and programs, you can quickly make a cheap, fun, useful program for patients to use in nearly any space. Nintendo has kept the Wii locked from this application, so even though the Wii would be great for these applications, physical therapists have to adapt their programs to the already made games, like Wii Sports or Wii Fit, which are not designed well for rehab.
Happy Thanksgiving and I shall resume the blog next week!

I have began developing further with my moving image I am now near enough ready to be able to start creating this. The narrative about my moving image is going to be selling a product the product will be ray bans because of this my moving image is incorporating fashion. As Ray-Bans are seen as fashionable glasses.
My moving image is going to be able to split into more than three sections. From the storyboard I have created the animation will last up to a minute and may go over depending on the end titles but if so only by a small gap of around five seconds. When creating my animation I want to use rotoscoping in order to create parts of my animation. I also want parts to be normal especially the beginning and near the end however somehow would like to keep animation included this may however be by using typography so it keeps the idea of moving image.
The storyline of my animation is going to show a person walking normally down a road and then leading onto finding the glasses where the person walking will put them on and suddenly the video will turn into rotoscoping similar to this:
The glasses will begging to change colour slightly into the same part of the animation which will then lead onto the next part of my animation where the person walking will begin to look around and see random things I want to include art direction into my animation up to now I think this part of the animation would be good to include patterns as its going to be unrealistic and weird. Following further on the animation will suddenly drop almost down a hole. This is the only part of the animation which I'm not fully certain of how I'm going to show it up to now I think it should either turn black and you can only see the glasses changing colour or everything gets even more pattered and even more weird which will then lead on to someone coming out of the hole back into reality and ending my animation by having a slogan such as 'Experience life with Ray-bans.' and finishing with the ray bans logo and my name so when people see the animation they know who's done it.
Also when creating this animation I want to keep in mind target audience this will be aimed at anyone who wears glasses but in particular the age range of 16-30 as I think this advert will appeal to them most.
The music I am going to use in the animation has to be synced with the animation I have no idea of what song I'm going to use but can only imagine a beat being the soundtrack and at the end may turn off to just sound effects such as car noises and people walking and talking.To help with me choosing the song for my moving image I have created a playlist on spotify as I use this a lot to listen to music so whenever I come across a song which I think has a good beat which would be good to walk to I will add it in here so that I can come back to it and also use youtube to listen to them without vocals.

In a country like South Africa that is known for its ability to embrace transformation, is gender diversity in the workplace still an issue?
The MasterCard Index results seem to show that gender equality in South Africa still needs major improvement. It highlights that there are still more men in leadership positions that women. The index suggests that for every 100 men, there are 57.5 women in business leadership roles in organisations; and that for every 100 males, there are 25.5 women that own their own businesses.
As alarming as this is, are there benefits that businesses can enjoy by embracing more women participation in senior management? According to an ACCA report titled Increasing gender diversity to boost performance there are many benefits for organisations that choose to embrace this. The report says that organisations that lack a gender balance are unrepresentative of the society in which they operate, because women make up roughly half the population.
Research studies have found a link between more gender-diverse company boards and better financial performance. South Africa's mining sector has the best level of female representation on boards, according to a recent report released by PwC. "Research shows that there is a strong correlation between financial performance and the participation of women on boards," says Gerald Seegers, PwC Director for Human Resources Services, Southern Africa.
In light of the information from the research it becomes clear that companies that take gender diversity seriously benefit, not because the regulators require this, but because gender diversity affects their bottom-line. Helen Brand, the ACCA chief executive, says, "[Gender] Inequality is a genuine business risk and should be treated as such".
The finance sector has an important role to play in promoting and supporting diversity initiatives. CFOs can act as role models and use their 'top table' status to influence the corporate diversity strategies and action by other functions.
Gender equality in the South African business place still needs major improvements. Though they help, it is not regulations that will bring transformation, but it is organisations that understand the benefits of gender diversity that will reap the most rewards.

Shinji Kagawa scored his first Manchester United hat-trick as the Red Devils warmed up for their Champions League duel with Real Madrid by brushing aside Norwich to open up a 15-point lead at the top of the Premier League.
Although Sir Alex Ferguson had promised his team would be fully focused on the "mundane" domestic fare immediately prior to the most glamorous of European nights, for most of this afternoon's contest they were well below par.
It seemed even the home fans spent much of the afternoon wondering what lay ahead rather than bother about what was in front of them.
First blood: Shinji Kagawa scored Manchester United's first of the afternoon
Brutal: Wayne Rooney rifled home his side's fourth of the match
Eventually though, United cut loose, netting three times in the final 14 minutes, with Kagawa grabbing two to complete a memorable three-timer before Wayne Rooney belted in a sensational effort as United's grip on the title tightened.
Given Ferguson's liking for fooling around with the media, it was no surprise that, after all the eulogies ahead of what would have been the 1,000th senior appearance of Ryan Giggs' career, the veteran Welshman duties were no more arduous than climbing the steps of the directors' box to watch.
Rafael and Rio Ferdinand were other notable absentees ahead of Tuesday's meeting with Real Madrid, deemed so important by Jose Mourinho that he could do without Cristiano Ronaldo for the latest 'El Clasico' with Barcelona.
At a rough guess, either six or seven of United's starting line-up will keep their places next week, and they are bound to do better than the low-key offering served up during a dreadful first-half that only livened up in stoppage time.
Eyes on the prize: Kagawa slotted home his third Premier League goal for Manchester United
Just like that: Kagawa rushed to celebrate with Rooney after netting his second of the day
Icing on the cake: Kagawa took his third goal competently to make it 3-0 to the hosts
Up to that point, a brave Mark Bunn dive at Robin van Persie's feet and a low Michael Carrick effort that barely troubled the Norwich keeper were United's only threat.
Van Persie's form has dipped in recent weeks and a shot the Dutchman ballooned into the Stretford End midway through the half summed up the entire affair.
With Norwich's defence marshalled superbly by Bradley Johnson and Robert Snodgrass flying into challengers to expose any trepidation in United ranks, the visitors could feel well pleased with their efforts.
Their good work was undone in those additional couple of minutes though.
Antonio Valencia stepped neatly inside Anthony Pilkington on the edge of the area before floating over a rare left-footed cross.
It was not exactly perfect for Van Persie. But when he stretched to control, the ball bounced down for Kagawa, whose shot caught Bunn by surprise as it crept in at the near post.
Big guns: Rooney (right) was deployed up top by Sir Alex Ferguson
Tussle: Grant Holt tries to beat Chris Smalling (back) in the air
For Kagawa, it was a welcome moment.
A debut season halted by a knee injury in October has not really caught fire again.
And despite today's heroics, he looks set to be one of the players to lose their place from the team that performed so well in the Bernabeu.
Patrice Evra is one of the certainties to be retained. Little wonder therefore that Ferguson was so annoyed when Snodgrass launched into the French full-back in the dregs of the half.
Beaten to the punch: Rooney is sent flying by Mark Bunn (left) after the Norwich keeper slid in
Not this time: Norwich defender Michael Turner (left) snatches the ball away from Kagawa
Evra was none too pleased either, although he did return for the second-half and Snodgrass collected a yellow card.
A sliced clearance over his own bar from Nemanja Vidic straight after the re-start was an indicator not much had changed from the unconvincing first-half display.
Jonny Howson had an effort deflected wide before Grant Holt got above Evra and steered a cushioned header into Russell Martin's path, only for the full-back to lift his effort over from barely four yards.
You're surrounded: Rooney tries to weave his way through a group of Norwich defenders
That Holt was fouling Evra was not really the point, just the finishing which was so obviously lacking finesse.
And though United continued to coast in second gear, and though Van Persie was replaced by Danny Welbeck, they were still too good.
Indeed, barely any pressure had been applied to the visitors' box when Rooney sped into the box 14 minutes from time and supplied the pass from which Kagawa doubled his tally for the season.
Almost: Robin van Persie sits on the turf at Old Trafford
