Immediately, I changed to the local air-time and boarded the train to Brooklyn, My air-bnb hostess Stephanie was kind enough to let me know the easiest way to my location at Church Avenue.
After an hour, she greeted me at the very cold windy junction and led me into a very warm apartment. Her cat looked at me and stared. I was happy with my room and the whole place was warm and inviting.
I jumped onto the bed and dozed off!
The next day, rise and shine and was chilly indeed! Took the subway and went to the 42nd St-Times Square. Was hungry. Walked along many other tourists at NY's popular shopping spot. Managed to see and enter one of the tallest building once the Empire State Building. I was mesmerised with the beauty of the tall structure.
Visited the City Hall Park and across it the walk on the iconic Brooklyn Bridge. From this old bridge, I can view the Manhattan Bridge afar.
It was rather chilly and I still managed to visit the St Paul's Cathedral. It has a sombre feeling as I saw old tombstones on the lawn. After which I walked to see the Opulus and One Trade Centre (built after the 9/11 tragedy which replaced the World Trade Centre) which stood at 1776ft is the sixth tallest building in the world now.
Also visited Prospect Park which was very dry, but the ice-rink at the park where adults and children alike enjoyed their skating with loud music on made the park somehow lively on that weekend.
after a few days in NY, took a bus ride to the west to a town called Tulsa in Oklahoma State.Start of another adventure.

Azerbaijan Says 29 Missing after Oil Platform Fire Feared Dead
BAKU, Dec 6 (Reuters) - Azeri state energy company SOCAR said on Sunday 29 workers missing after an oil platform in the Caspian Sea caught fire on Friday were feared dead, and President Ilham Aliyev declared a day of national mourning.
SOCAR said one worker had been killed and 33 rescued, out of the 62 who were on the oil rig when the fire started.
"We continue the search-and-rescue operation ... We regard those whom we have not found so far as missing ... We believe that God will help them, although it's probably impossible," Khoshbakh Usifzade, SOCAR first vice-president, told a news conference.
Usifzade added rescuers were also searching for three more workers who had been swept into the sea in an accident on another oil platform on Friday.
He said the fire was not completely extinguished yet but hoped it would be by the end of the day.
Daily production on the platform was 920 tonnes of oil and 1.08 million cubic metres of gas.
"These figures are our production losses so far," he said.
Usifzade said the company would review its safety measures on its platforms, many of which were built in Soviet times.

PureView Club
This group actually started since the 808 was announced. Talk about love at first sight. Lots of news and discussion. Which led me to the next item.
From ZDNet, the title is self explanatory: Another week with the Nokia 808 PureView convinces me it's worth the $700. I think the main problem is the Symbian OS or rather the perception. I had used Symbian S60 previously and by the E52 it was clearly buggy. Belle is definitely different in performance, far more responsive and stable.
One thing I find missing is the ability to upload to Picasa webalbum directly. If I am ever desperately in need of connecting to Picasa, I can actually transfer to my N9 which in turn can upload to my account.
So much trouble you say? Three simple letters: NFC. I snap on the 808, open the gallery, put them together at the NFC antenna and voila! The image is sent via bluetooth automatically provided the phones have been paired previously. Very fast and automatic.
Volker Weber is the owner of the blog vowe dot net, I particularly like this post about going back to the 808 , something I can attest to.
Lastly this Finnish blogger, Jarmo Timonen, has patiently gathered all the music videos he made with the PureView. Quite amazing recordings for a mobile phone.
Enjoy this video of a misunderstood, underrated and under sold phone

It has been said time and time again that high blood pressure causes Stroke, Kidney disease, Heart disease and Eye damage. We will now examine how this happens.
What is a stroke?
Stroke is a disease that affects the blood vessels that supply blood to the brain.
A stroke occurs when a blood vessel to the brain is either blocked by a clot (ischemic stroke) or bursts (hemorrhagic stroke). When that happens, a part of the brain is no longer getting the blood and oxygen it needs, so it starts to die. Your brain controls your movement and thoughts, so a stroke doesn't only hurt your brain, it also hurts the brain's ability to think and control body functions. Strokes can affect language, memory and vision as well as cause paralysis and other health issues.
How does high blood pressure cause a stroke?
- High blood pressure damages arteries so they burst or clog more easily.
High blood pressure can damage arteries throughout the body. Weakened arteries in the brain put you at a much higher risk for stroke.
- High blood pressure and ischemic stroke
About 87% of strokes are ischemic strokes. Again, they are caused by narrowed or clogged blood vessels in the brain that cut off the blood flow to brain cells.
Because High blood pressure damages arteries throughout the body, it is critical to keep your blood pressure within a normal range to protect your brain from this often disabling or fatal event.
High blood pressure and hemorrhagic stroke
About 13% of strokes are hemorrhagic strokes, which occur when a blood vessel ruptures in or near the brain. When a blood vessel ruptures, it can bleed into the deep tissue in the brain or in the space between the brain and the skull.
High blood pressure damages the arteries and can create weak places that rupture easily or thin spots that fill up with blood and balloon out from the artery wall. Chronic HBP or aging blood vessels are the main causes of this type of stroke.
Stroke warning signs
If you have high blood pressure, it is important that you learn and teach those around you of the stroke warning signs. Most damage to stroke victims happens because they (or those who take care of them) were unable to recognize these signs and act on them in good time.
They are:
- Sudden numbness or weakness of the face, arm or leg especially on one side of the body
- Sudden confusion, trouble speaking or understanding
- Sudden trouble seeing in one or both eyes
- Sudden trouble walking, dizziness, loss of balance or coordination
- Sudden severe headache with no known cause
If you notice these signs, call your doctor or any qualified Medical personnel immediately for urgent, emergency medical attention. It's very important to take immediate action. If given within 3 hours of the start of symptoms, a clot-removing drug called tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) may reduce long-term disability for the most common type of stroke. Also, check the time so you'll know when the first symptoms appeared.

Muse A was walking down the road one day minding her own business, when suddenly she was pulled into an alleyway by muse B. Muse B pinned muse A to the wall and bit into muse A's neck, drinking some of her blood. Muse B liked the taste of Muse A's blood. Muse B decides to keep Muse A alive. "Little bird... You have an option... Come be a blood slave for me and my brother(or sister)... Or i kill you here and now..." Muse B says in a threatening tone. Muse A looks pained by the choice "I-i'll go with you..." Muse A says in a small voice. Muse B smirks as they knock Muse A out and carry Muse A back to their mansion in the woods.
Muse A : human (sub)(me)
Muse B : Vampire (dom)(my rp partner)
In the plot it says muse B has a sibling but that is up to whoever plays it of they want them to have a sibling or not

The Pupil Premium
The Government believes that the Pupil Premium, which is additional to main school funding, is the best way to address the current underlying inequalities between children eligible for free school meals (FSM) and their wealthier peers by ensuring that funding to tackle disadvantage reaches the pupils who need it most. It is for schools to decide how the Pupil Premium, allocated to schools per FSM pupil, is spent, since they are best placed to assess what additional provision should be made for the individual pupils within their responsibility.
You can download our Pupil Premium Analyses and 2016-17 commentary below. You can also find further information at the Department for Education link.

MX-5s GO FANTASTIQUE BELGIQUE!
This weekend the BRSCC Mazda MX-5 Championship makes history for itself as for the first time since its inception, the drivers will be heading outside of the UK for a European round. The location – the mighty Zolder circuit in Belgium, where over 20 drivers will make the trip across the channel to compete in front of a foreign audience, some of which experiencing it for the first time.
Thankfully, our championship contenders have all opted to head out to continue the duels from the first couple of rounds. Points leader Oliver Allwood consistently remains a thorn in Tom Roche's side as the AB Motorsport driver capitalized on a misfortune Race 3 for Roche at Anglesey to snatch the points lead and the chance to go to Barcelona for the European MX-5 Cup Final. Roche's mind will now be focused on taking a maximum points haul from Belgium. His pace in the first two weekends has been nothing less than ominous, however Allwood has been surprising a lot of people with his ability to keep up, no less at Anglesey. The pair are surely set to continue what could become a season long battle this weekend.
Simon Baldwin will also be another driver that is likely to run at the front and give his two rivals an extra incentive to go faster. Currently on two podiums for the year and never finishing outside of the top 10, last season's one-time points leader has certainly proven that he's still very much in contention for this year too. Just ahead of him is the incredibly consistent James Harris, who is revelling in his first full season after a part time campaign last year, yet will be absent from this weekend's festivities. 4th placed Clive Powles won't be, however, so he'll be hoping to capitalize on his recent form with a couple of podiums from Anglesey.
Other front running drivers who are making the crossing to Belgium include Paul Tucker, Paul Bateman and Simon Woods, all of which have secured more than one top 10 this year already and will hope that Zolder is kind to them on this occasion. Simon Goddard also returns this weekend, once again running double duty in the Mk1s and the Mk3 SuperCup. In terms of potential improvers and surprises, some good shouts will be Ivan Leary, Bryn Griffiths, Richard Collins, Lewis Field and Paul Maguire. The latter four have all seen both their fortunes and their pace make a steady rise, while Leary is back after his weekend-ending incident at the start of race 1B at Snetterton. The #25 is back up to full health and raring to go once more.
The full entry for this weekend's European action reads as follows:
5 Richard Collins
16 Matt Pickford
17 Russ Lindsay
18 Clive Powles
20 Paul Maguire
25 Ivan Leary
29 Adam Craig
30 Paul Austin
42 Paul Bateman
46 Simon Goddard
48 Simon Baldwin
61 Lewis Field
63 Oliver Allwood
67 Simon Orange
68 Paul Tucker
80 Anthony Hutchins
88 Stuart Symonds
101 Simon Woods
111 Danny Green
125 Tom Roche
Looking at the weather, while it did originally look fairly decent it looks like it's taken a turn for the worse as rain and wet conditions are forecast for the weekend. Even so, temperatures are still going to be rather high. Amongst the thunderstorms, it's still set to go as high as 26 degrees! You can see a full forecast via Accuweather HERE.
Also, the full details of the weekend can be found on the BRSCC website HERE.

Queen of the cabin & crazy PJ's!
Scout loves her "baby girl time" which means she gets to cuddle her 70 pound butt in my lap as I pet her. By the way, how do you like my scotty & kitty pj's? These are good for "waving from the deck to my non-acknowledging neighbors," don't ya think?
Look at the intoxicated look on Scout's face as I rub her head. I promise, I didn't give her any beer!
Isn't she a ham?

Scout is adorable and the kitchen/dining area of the cabin is looking great. Scout is a bit more dog than I would want (I have a cocker spaniel and don't want anything larger personally) but she is cute and has every right to be featured on your blog. I have a whole blog devoted to the cuteness of my little ones although I am behind due to lack of internet but now I am back up and going. Look forward to seeing Scout and your other adventures again soon.

~First of all, your cabin photo is so beautifully decorated. It is cozy and inviting just as I pictured. Lucky Scout getting to spend time there.
~Second of all, with those cute pjs, no wonder the fishermen were using their binoculars.
~Thirdly, I can relate to sharing too many pictures of your babies. It is a problem for me too. I am really trying to curb my sharing, although I do like seeing pictures of Scout and Marvin.

You are so funny. I've missed so much being AWOL for a little while. But had to come visit you and catch up. Love the PJ's! GIRL! We'd have a time standing there together waving at everyone!!
Scout is just to die for! I am amazed at how she has grown. Bernese is now my favorite type of dog, I see them everywhere now and am amazed I haven't noticed them before! But don't know if I can transition from little dog to big dog at this point. I don't think there is room on the bed! HA!
Loved this! Have a great day! Karen

Has anyone heard if they may add more dates to the US Tour? I'm so sad I didn't get tickets to Seattle or Chicago. I guess I should have just dealt with the obstructed view seats that were available. :(
drakeheuer14 Posts: 2,199Obstructed view would never be worth it to me. If you just want to hear the show, buy the bootleg after.
A little patience and I am sure there will be more shows ahead. Just maybe not this year.Pittsburgh 2013
Cincinnati 2014
Greenville 2016
(Raleigh 2016)
Columbia 2016
Yeah, I agree. I want to be able to see them.
AJ96071 Posts: 13You can see them even with obstructed view.. I've had obstructed seats a few times and you can always see the band
Dalirock Posts: 60They will probably release more tickets to the baseball stadium shows as it gets closer. Thats how I got to g to Fenway 1 two years ago!
Fenway seems to do this for most shows
Gingerlou77 Posts: 425Tickets are popping up, there's time yet...!
tschav Posts: 1,488Tickets should become available a little before the US shows. 10c members will have singles as extras as well.
You also have the option for rooftops in Wrigley, just need to find the right rooftop on Sheffield that gives you a chance to see a sliver of the stage.

Welcome to the Parbold Community Website
Parbold is a small township in West Lancashire, situated 4 miles from Junction 27 of the M6. It can also be accessed via the regular rail service which runs between Wigan and Southport. The name Parbold is drawn from Old English and means the "Pear Orchard". Its' name still reflects its' quiet and rural atmosphere. Nestled in the countryside of West Lancashire, the area around Parbold is full of beautiful views, quaint villages, and plenty of great places to visit and eat out. The village of Parbold is in the valley of the River Douglas and with the Leeds Liverpool canal passing close to the town centre.
Dominating the area is Parbold Hill where a little below its summit is a monument that was originally erected to commemorate the Reform Bill of 1832 and it is unusual as it is somewhat bottle shaped, known locally as Parbold Bottle. From here though the views are splendid and the more energetic can take advantage of the myriad of pathways and walks that are well signed to appreciate the incredible scenery. Parbold has plenty to offer both the resident and visitor, the canal is popular with anglers and ramblers whilst the village boasts a number of good pubs and local shops. With two churches, primary schools and other facilities it is easy to appreciate why Parbold is such a popular location.
This website will show you all that's happening in Parbold and the latest news on our village community and events. This website has been created specifically for residents and visitors of Parbold and surrounding villages to create an electronic hub for all that happens in our beautiful village.

HEALTH chiefs in West Lancashire are reminding residents over the festive period, that they can now visit a GP or practice nurse in the evenings and weekends at a time that suits them.
Your local GP should always be your first point of contact for any non-emergency illnesses that can't be treated yourself through self-care. In West Lancashire a GP will be available from 8am to 6.30pm on weekdays (although local practice times may vary). However, to address the concerns of residents who may find it difficult to see a GP at a time that suits them, the extended access pilot has been rolled out across West Lancashire.
The extended access pilot is a result of NHS England's General Practice Forward View, which is a national guide for primary care services over the next five years. Within the guide, it states that GP access in England is to be improved to provide greater GP access to the population at evenings and weekends within the next five years.
In West Lancashire, patients can now visit a GP in the evenings and weekends at certain times. The practices and times are as follows:
- Tuesdays from 6.30pm to 8pm at the Skelmersdale Family Practice
- Wednesdays from 6.30pm to 8pm at the Matthew Ryder Clinic in Upholland
- Wednesdays from 6.30pm to 8pm at the Tarleton Group Practice
- Thursdays from 6.30pm to 8pm at the West Lancashire Health Centre in Ormskirk
- Saturdays from 10am to 4pm at the Sandy Lane Health Centre in Skelmersdale (GP, nurse and blood clinic)
- Sundays from 10am to 2pm at the Sandy Lane Health Centre in Skelmersdale (GP and nurse only)
Making an appointment to see a GP in the evening and at weekends is as simple as calling your local GP practice and making an appointment through the reception as you would do normally, patients can choose which practice they visit from those that are offering this service when making their appointment.
If residents are not currently registered with a GP, you can find out where your local GP surgery is at
https://www.nhs.uk/pages/home.aspx or by calling 0300 311 22 33.

Lathom and Parbold Dry Docks Restoration Project. The villages of Lathom and Parbold owe much of their growth and development to the Leeds and Liverpool canal. Both villages had dry docks built at the time of the canal construction and both have a unique place in the history of the canal. The Lathom dock is a listed structure within a local conservation area at the junction of the Leeds and Liverpool canal and the Rufford Branch. The Parbold dock, although not a listed structure, is a major part of the canal history as it is the remainder of the original planned route of the canal, although this was later changed.
Both dry docks are in a sorry state these days and it is difficult for any visitors to understand or visualise their original purpose.
The main aims of this joint project are to clean up both docks, removing overgrown vegetation, later non-original additions and providing historical and heritage information about the docks.
The Lathom dock is approximately half a mile east of Burscough and Parbold another 3 miles along the towpath. Once the project is completed this will link both villages with a walk worth making, bringing more visitors into both villages and improving the environment for the local community.
Burscough Heritage Group and Parbold Heritage Group are working together with the Canal & River Trust for this project.
If you would like to be involved, become a member, volunteer or just keep up to date with events please give your contact to a Group member or email us at one of the addresses below.

Fly-tipping. If you think that waste has been disposed of illegally, then you can report it to WLBC either by phone on 01695 577177 (8.30 - 5.30, Mon to Fri) or on their website www.westlancs.gov.uk/flytipping
Water leaks should be reported to 0800 330033 or online form at www.unitedutilities.com
Parbold Station. Parbold station platforms are in need of some care from local garden societies and keen gardeners. Pots, planters can be used on the platforms but must be secured and in line with Health and Safety regulations. The platforms can be restored to their former proud state with a little organisation and hard work from willing volunteers. Local Primary schools are designing posters which will be proudly displayed soon.
Unfortunately there is no funding currently for this work but I understand no budget is available at Hindley station and that looks fabulous, Parbold can compete.
If you are interested please call in and see Anthony at the station, from 06:30 to 13:00 - Monday to Friday.
Odour reporting system for Parbold residents. As some of you may know United Utilities at Hoscar have been working to improve the odour reporting system for Parbold residents. They now have a direct email link which allows them to see every complaint in real time but it is still in the testing stage and has some limitations. However they are happy to share it with us and hope, that in future, residents will use it each and every time they experience offensive odours.
This development is a direct result of the meetings we have held with United Utilities and is a positive step forward
Please try out the new system if you experience any odours and could you feedback any comments on the reporting link directly to me so we can help improve the reporting procedure.
When it (the link) is used it will provide more targeted and consistent information which will help us understand more precisely what is happing, why and to help us tackle the underlying causes." http://unitedutilities.odour.sgizmo.com/s3/

Reminiscence - Poem by Patricia Erickson
A sapling is planted and grows to maturity:
becomes very beautiful and functional..
It is a permanent fixture in our lives.
One day out of the blue our beautiful tree
Develops a disease and dies.
When the tree is removed it leaves a huge empty space.
Gradually one becomes accoustom to not seeing the tree.
Mother Nature does her job by covering the chasm with
grass and soil: leaving a small indentation.
Is this not the way of life of a human being?
One is born. Goes through the different stages of life.
Becomes intertwined with the lives of others.
Death of a person leaves a large void.
The void becomes smaller and smaller as time passes.
Oh! Remember me! Remember Me!
Cried out the beautiful tree and the human being.
Remember me by pictures, conversation and mementos.
Remember me not with a heavy heart and tears,
But joy in your heart and smile on your lips.
Then, my existence was not in vain, but lives on in memories.

Iceland is intersected by the North American and Eurasian Plates, creating a gap that the Vikings called "No Man's Land," where they convened the world's first parliament in 930. "No Man's Land," a metaphor for the unconscious, that "no place" the power of which, we as psychoanalysts, all recognize as active and powerful, like the volcanoes that surround the glacier-filled country. Iceland, the island in the middle, between Europe and the Americas, between glaciers and volcanoes, is the perfect venue to discuss convergence and division: subjective, institutional, theoretical, ideological and real.
Histories of psychoanalysis emphasize divisions, separations, excommunications and seemingly unbridgeable rifts, often as productive and generative as they have been devastating and stultifying. National, social and economic factors have sustained and hardened ideological and theoretical tensions. That historical divisions are continually transmitted has often made for a markedly chilly present.
The first "Psychoanalysis on Ice" (2014) began a conversation across these divisions, to consider the situation of psychoanalysis in the 21st century, in the hope that dialogue and exchange would bring our field to life in new and yet unimagined ways. The enormous success of the conference and the new relationships, modes of engagement, and cross-fertilization have inspired Psychoanalysis on Ice II, where we will return to Reykjavik, Iceland, whose geographical location inspired our first meeting, and where the climate in July 2018 will be even more hospitable.
While "on ice" speaks to the icy rigidity and of the subsequent stagnancy of the conversation between the groups, schools and theoretical orientations, at the same time, the metaphor also speaks to the very special nature of psychoanalysis. Psychoanalysis is a treatment of and by speech, and consequently, one that strives to keep the drives in suspension, "on ice," or to allow speech to give them new form, "breaking the ice."
We invite psychoanalysts of all theoretical orientations to meet in Reykjavík and discuss foundational psychoanalytic concepts as well as the challenges of psychoanalysis today. We hope to potentiate deeper engagement among psychoanalysts revisiting and revivifying these concepts and to consider together the challenges that face us all.
As the days grow longer in Iceland's capital and we can enjoy the Icelandic sublime midnight sun, extending conversations and lingering over Brennivín, we are invited to meet in the middle once again as hundreds of psychoanalysts will convene over several days in the world famous Harpa Concert Hall and Convention Center, a glimmering iceberg-shaped building in the city's harbor. The innovative conference format promotes dialogue and discussion, a "melting of the ice." Each day, participants will hear significant representatives of major psychoanalytic schools of thought discuss foundational psychoanalytic concepts from their perspectives, and an another day consider how psychoanalytic understandings of contemporary issues can promote positive change. The overarching goal of this conference is to bring psychoanalysts of all stripes into closer contact, across theories, orientations, and national differences, or, to borrow a phrase of the local tourist bureau, to attempt to "meet in the middle."
In addition, attendees will be able to enjoy lectures from local experts on Icelandic folklore, history, and geology. Excursions will be offered to explore the countryside, hike glaciers, and see geysers, and interact with Icelanders.

The British city of Salisbury will host more than 25 Catalan cultural offerings between 24th May and 8th June, which will be included in the Salisbury International Arts Festival with the slogan "the festival celebrates the vibrant arts of Catalonia".
Each year the Salisbury International Arts Festival focuses its programme on a particular country, which opens the event. In 2009, 2010 and 2011 the focus was on India, Russia and China respectively. This year the festival will spotlight Catalan culture, from the traditional to the contemporary. Over 80,000 festival-goers will be able enjoy performances by the dance company Nats Nus, the work of Roger Bernat and Pep Bou, various film screenings and musical events that includes such diverse talents as Jordi Savall, the Cobla Sant Jordi, La Troba Kung-Fú, Astrio or a joint show by Carles Santos and CaboSanRoque. Also scheduled are a talk by Barça's Vice-President, Carles Vilarrubí and several performances by the human tower group Castellers de Vilafranca.
"I have experienced the vibrant art and culture of this part of the world since I was a child, as my father is Catalan, and I have discovered a wealth of work that is powerful, energetic and witty", said the festival's director, Maria Bota, in a statement. For his part, the Director of the Institut Ramon Llull, Vicente Villatoro, remarked that "the special importance of being the guest culture at the Salisbury Festival is due to its wide-ranging nature. Fortunately, Catalan culture is often the guest culture at events that show the vitality of a particular sector: literature, dance, architecture, and so on. In this case we can show the vitality and energy of new Catalan cultural output as a whole, in all fields. And we can do so at a prestigious festival that has a substantial impact on British society."
Pep Bou will present his show Rebufaplanetes at Salisbury with the architecture students of Enric Ruiz Geli, the architect working on the headquarters of the future El Bulli Foundation. Ponten Pie will surprise visitors with its theatrical and gastronomic proposal Copacabana, and Roger Bernat will present Rite of Spring.
The programme also includes a film series, with the screening of Agustí Villaronga's award-winning Black Bread, the UK premiere of Joel Joan's Fènix 11*23, Toni Bestard's The Perfect Stranger, and a tribute to the recently deceased Bigas Luna with the screening of The Tit and the Moon. Toni Bestard, Sergio Lara, Joel Joan and Èric Bertran will attend the screening of their respective films and take part in discussions about them.
To complement the artistic events, there will be several talks about Catalan culture. The Vice-President of Futbol Club Barcelona, Carles Vilarrubí, will talk about the links between sport, culture and education, while the former British General Consul in Barcelona, Geoff Cowling, will give a lecture entitled "Catalonia: Past, Present and Future".
In addition to the Catalan programme, visitors will also be able to enjoy the spectacular floral installations of Girona Flower Time.

Pandey and Pawan drive steady Karnataka
Karnataka 255 for 4 (Pandey 66, Pawan 52) v Uttar Pradesh
The Chinnaswamy Stadium hasn't been a venue where bowlers have thrived in the recent past, as the lack of outright results testify - only one in the previous nine first-class matches. In keeping with the trend, Sunday's pitch also provided little encouragement for the Uttar Pradesh bowlers, as they managed only four wickets and conceded 255.
Karnataka's batting unit had a comfortable day, and if not for a couple of ill-advised shots, the home team would have been in a position of dominance. Each of their specialist batsmen got a start, but no one really capitalised on a slow, benign track; their highest run-getters of the season, Manish Pandey and KB Pawan, crafted contrasting half-centuries but didn't convert them to centuries.
UP have three bowlers with India caps in their line-up, but they rarely tested Karnataka after Mohammad Kaif lost the toss. RP Singh provided the visitors their best passage of play an hour after lunch, scalping two wickets in the space of five deliveries. Pawan and Ganesh Satish were making desultory progress, slowly constructing a second-wicket stand that was sapping UP's morale, but RP had both batsmen nicking to the wicketkeeper in the 57th over. Pawan chased one going away with the angle from over the wicket, while Satish fended at a delivery jagging in from round the stumps.
That double-strike left Karnataka at 138 for 3, but only brought together captain Rahul Dravid and Pandey, who combined for the day's largest partnership, worth 109 runs. Dravid was his usual steady self, not taking too many risks, content with punishing the loose deliveries served up. Pandey, though, was more expansive after a cautious beginning, driving Praveen Kumar on-the-up through extra cover and then carving the next one, a shorter, wider offering through cover for four more.
With the score smoothly mounting, UP decided to set 3-6 fields to contain the batsmen: a leg slip, a short midwicket and a very straight short mid-on were the close-in fielders, backed by a wide mid-on, deep midwicket and fine leg. UP's bowlers persistently bowled down the leg side to tie down Karnataka, with medium-pacer Bhuvaneshwar Kumar even sending down three leg-side wides. Before tea, the tactic was used only against Pandey, but Dravid was also subjected to it in the final session. Sometimes, it was the off side that was packed with six close fielders, with bowlers angling it across the batsmen from round the wicket.
The strategy worked for a while, but it was abandoned after the 84th over when Pandey twice found a way through a gridlock of fielders to the boundary on the off side: first, Parvinder Singh was deftly gilded to the vacant third-man region for four, and then a full, wide ball was crashed through cover for another boundary.
Another move from UP to minimise the runs was also thwarted by a flurry of fours from Pandey. Thinking that the new ball would be easier to score off they delayed taking it, preferring the unthreatening dibbly-dobblies of Parvinder and the leg spin of Piyush Chawla. In the 90th over, bowled by Parvinder, Pandey reached his half-century with a cross-batted swipe to midwicket, clubbed the next delivery over mid-on for a one-bounce four and completed a hat-trick of boundaries by top-edging a wide one over point. UP took the new ball in the next over.
RP Singh and Bhuvaneshwar bowled four amiable overs with it, during which Pandey and Dravid stretched their partnership beyond hundred. Kaif then decided to replace Bhuvaneshwar with Praveen Kumar, who struck with his first delivery. Pandey exited after looking to muscle a very wide delivery through the off side, only managing to edge it to second slip, where Kaif took a sharp catch.
There had been another attempted shot to regret for Karnataka earlier in the morning, when opener Robin Uthappa looked to sweep an overpitched delivery from left-arm spinner Praveen Gupta, only to miss and be plumb lbw. Uthappa and Pawan had no trouble with the bowling till then. Uthappa had moved fluently to 32, and had safely negotiated the potentially troublesome first hour, before his misjudgment ended his stay.
Pawan and Satish then took their time in building Karnataka's score. Pawan dropped anchor while Satish was a bit more adventurous, always keen to use his feet to the spinners. Both of them had their hopes of a big score dashed by RP, but Karnataka still have the rock-solid Dravid at the crease to orchestrate the push towards 400 on the second day.

Dwyane Wade is reportedly heading back to Miami.
The former Heat superstar was traded back to Miami by the Cleveland Cavaliers as part of a wild rebuilding effort on Thursday. In what was once thought to be a slow trade deadline, the Cavs blew it all up and shipped nearly half the team out in deals with the Lakers, Kings, Jazz and now the Miami Heat.
The latest is a deal that sends Wade back to the team that drafted him with the fifth overall pick in 2003. According to ESPN's Adrian Wonjarowski, Wade leaves Cleveland right as the team also executed a massive multi-team deal that netted the Cavs Rodney Hood and George Hill.

At the largest gathering of Royal Ark Mariners in the province since the annual assembly, potential candidates were given an explanation about the Fraternity. A first for East Anglia; attended by over 55 masons.
A comprehensive talk was given, questions were asked and answered, and five Brethren expressed a desire to sign articles and become members of the 'ships company'. The discussion was lively, the questions searching and a number of senior members gave answers.
I must thank the WCN and Members of Mortimer Lodge No 687 for hosting the event and for the fine installation ceremony delivered by PCN Watts, well done Dougie.
It was a wonderful evening, I believe that everyone who attended enjoyed the event and we all learnt something of value. We had an excellent example from two budding thespians about how NOT to invite a mark mason to join us, it was brilliant and very funny. The whole evening was topped off by a simple supper of fish and chips with some short and humorous speeches, away by 9pm.

Dear World, an interactive, award-winning portrait project that unites people through pictures with their distinctive message-on-skin style, makes it way to Western Carolina University's campus on Monday and Tuesday, Sept. 25-26.
Dear World, which is sponsored by the Arts and Cultural Events series, explores the subtle and powerful connections between students, faculty and staff. The project, which began in New Orleans in 2009, asks each portrait subject to share a message to someone or something they care about regardless of religion, race or language.
The messages are typically written on their arms or hands with a black marker, and then they are photographed. Dear World has photographed more than 50,000 people from around the world.
There will be a VIP photo shoot, which is by invitation only, on Sept. 25, from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. in the A.K. Hinds University Center's Grandroom. On Sept. 26, there will be an open shoot from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the UC's second floor. A storytelling event will be held at 7 p.m. in the Grandroom.

In 2006, 54% of cocaine seized in Mexico was intercepted on land.
In the same year, 44% of the drug was intercepted at sea.

Yesterday was my husband and my anniversary but we really went out on Saturday instead. So on our anniversary we went on a hike with my husbands parents and some family friends. The hike was about 2 hours from our house and was 8 miles long. On the hike there were 10 different waterfalls you could see, walk under some and behind others. It was breathtaking! We did take our 4 year old and 2 year old so while hiking for the first time in a long time, I either had to carry him in a backpack on my back, carry all our stuff in another backpack or carry my 4 year old. I was exhausted when it was over with and I can barely move but it was worth it! While on the hike I was reminded how beautiful this Earth is and how wonderful God made it. It was amazing how beautiful nature can be and I realized how much I take for granted. Anyways I am going to share a couple pictures of our journey with me and my family. (Pictures were taken by my mother in law Marie since I forgot our camera in the car)

Welcome to Slightly Technical Corner. Here are some freshly developed night time images I shot in London and some in Southend on colour transparency film. These are the HUGE images my 6×9 camera produces and here they are on my Lightbox. For comparison look at the black and white negs I took. The black and white shots are actually of a seemingly dazed and groggy mouse I found in my garden on my 35mm camera. That light coloured dot. Thats the mouse. The 35mm negs are about 6 times smaller than the 6×9. I love using both these cameras equally though.
The nightshift continues for me. Freezing forever in time the otherwise transient nature of our existence. Night to day to night to day…….
If you enjoy looking at my images and you havent already done so, follow me on Instagram for daily image uploads. These Lightbox shots are soon to feature once Ive scanned them.
