Latest Financials at Oil Majors Indicate Rising Shareholder Risk
Energy stocks have sold off over the past week, pulled down by both the broader financial turmoil and some poor earnings figures from top oil companies.
As of Thursday, benchmark oil prices are off more than 7 percent from their cyclical peaks reached a little more than a week earlier. The spike in volatility and the global financial selloff magnified the damage to the energy sector.
But some highly disappointing numbers from a few oil majors made things worse. ExxonMobil (XOM) and Chevron (CVX), in particular, spooked investors when they revealed fourth-quarter earnings that badly missed expectations. Chevron earned $0.72 per share in the fourth quarter and Exxon reported earnings of $0.88 per share, figures that were 40 percent and 15 percent lower than analysts' expectations, respectively.
The disappointing numbers were, in part, the result of a slump in refining margins. During the depths of the oil market downturn, the downstream units for the integrated oil companies cushioned the blow of plunging oil prices. But with the market on the upswing, rising profits from crude oil sales are now being offset by a narrowing of refining margins.
Average refining margins from around the world dipped from $16.30 per barrel to $14.40 per barrel between the third and fourth quarters last year, according to data from BP. In the first quarter of 2018 to date, margins fell even further to $12.10 per barrel.
But for Exxon, at least, the trouble wasn't all related to its downstream operations. Its upstream unit actually would have lost money if not for the U.S. tax overhaul. Free cash flow was negative in the fourth quarter, although Exxon's leadership says that is because of one-off expenditures, such as a sizable acquisition in Mozambique. "All of these are key elements of our future growth potential," Jeff Woodbury, a VP at Exxon, told shareholders on a conference call.
ExxonMobil's production has been slowly eroding for years, and it dipped by 130,000 bpd in the fourth quarter from a year earlier.
Some analysts see the numbers as a red flag. "One way to put these earnings in perspective: Exxon is depending on rising global prices to earn a profit while having increasing difficulty in translating higher oil prices into higher profits," Tom Sanzillo and Kathy Hipple of the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis, wrote in a commentary. "For long-term investors, this was Exxon's 12th consecutive quarterly loss in its U.S. drilling business."


text: Happy anniversary to Adrian Lyne's Fatal Attraction, which premiered on this day back in 1987 in all its over-the-top glory. The expression "bunny boiler" was created thanks to Lyne's erotic thriller, which at times is more absurd than sexy — but no one can deny the insanity of Glenn Close's unhinged performance as the one-night-stand who stalks her part-time lover (the always sweaty Michael Douglas) and threatens his family. Fatal Attraction joins famed erotic thrillers like Basic Instinct in the guilty-pleasure category — and we've selected ten other like-minded movies to join them.

Speaking of Christmas craziness:
On Christmas Eve Day Sophie and Stella began sneezing.
Uh Oh.
I told myself that it was just dust.
Then their noses started running.. a lot. A lot of snot was beginning to ooze out from their little nostrils.
I told myself it was just from the dust. Yes, my house was dusty (I dislike dusting, hence all the dust).
But as the day progressed, I knew in my heart of hearts that they were both getting colds. I was crossing my fingers and hoping they would be mild colds.
Sadly I was wrong.
So Christmas Eve night there was VERY little sleep for Mickey and I. Stella was affected the worst. Her little nose was soooo plugged no amount of saline, and suction seemed to help clear her little nose so she could breath.
We were up with her hourly.
Then little miss 7 year old Olivia, was up at least 3 times due to the excitement of Christmas morning.
And last, but most certainly not least Sophie was up a few times due to a stuffy nose.
Christmas morning began with two exhausted parents, two very excited older kids and one sleeping (finally) 2 year old.
Olivia and Sophie got spoiled. They were so excited and Sophie kept hugging me and telling me "I love you mommy." So cute.
Once Stella woke up, and got adjusted to all the chaos, she enjoyed ripping open a few of her presents. However, the big hit with her was this blue plastic tube that I had put in her stocking. She pretty much chewed on that thing all day. If Sophie or Olivia tried to play with it, she would cry in protest.
Christmas Dinner was at the in laws house. It was delicious!! Sophie watched TV, refused to eat and wiped her nose with her tongue or her hand throughout the evening. Poor lil girl. Olivia brought her Word Girl Doll, snacked on chips and ate almost all of her dinner. Stella chewed on her new blue tube, walked around more then she crawled and ate/threw a little bit of food. Not a bad dinner considering just how sick those two girls seemed to be.
Sadly last night was no better for sleep for lil miss Stella. Her nose is just so plugged! She just couldn't catch a break and we couldn't seem to help her.
So today, Boxing Day was spent watching LOTS of TV for the kid-lets and drinking LOTS of coffee for me.
We did partake in some of those Boxing Day deals though. Well Mickey did. Got us a new TV.
So, here we are, Boxing Day. I am sad Christmas is over, but like most, I am looking forward to getting back to a bit of normalcy again.
|Olivia got a Word Girl Doll from Santa, the one main thing she REALLY wanted!
|Sophie and her Horse from Santa.
|Chewing on her blue tube at Grandma's house.
|Not a happy camper, even after her nap.

If you analyze what you actually take home from your income after every last little expense it can be kind of depressing. Now what if you could earn an income from a work from home business, how much money would it actually save you? There are ways to cut costs by not working from home like living closer to work, working longer days but less often (if this is allowed) and wearing out work clothes instead of just buying more.
Here is an in depth look at why making money at home is the future:
The first advantage is money. Even if you still work full-time for someone else, imagine how much more quickly you could pay off all your debts if you bring in an extra $200-$600 a month. A part-time home-based business could easily make this much. And you could do something you're already good at and enjoy. Auto repair, home repair, babysitting, yard work, making crafts and selling them, garage sales and almost any hobby you have can be turned into a money-making endeavor.
How big your business grows is up to you. If you provide a product or service with mass appeal and market it well, you could be on your way to full-time home employment. But even if that's not your ambition, just making extra money from something you enjoy doing anyway can be very satisfying both emotionally and financially.
MLM – Multi-Level Marketing or MLM is one of the most popular home-based business plans going. Its strength lies in the duplication of the sales plan and the creation of monthly income from past sales. If you like the idea of MLM make sure you pick a product and company you really believe in.
MAIL-ORDER – This is a relatively easy and inexpensive business you can start from home. You can pick any field you know and like. Stick to your strengths. Writing a small book or manual on fly fishing and then maybe making some flies and selling them all through the mail is one idea. You can put together an entire product line based on your hobby or interest. A newsletter on bird watching with facts about different birds that you put out once a month. Give away free copies to entice them to subscribe. Follow that up with a book you write about bird watching. Only your imagination and your willingness to put some effort into it limit the fields.
There is a big difference between making a living and creating a life. So many of us get caught up in our day to day living and we don't see the big picture. There is so much more to life and each one of us has a burning desire to do "something". It's there, it may be pushed way down inside but trust me it's there.
Creating a life and earning an income are two very different things. This is something that everyone should understand, if that happened, it might even change the world.
Do you agree that this is the future of making money? Why or why not?

From a Wildflower and Twenties Unscripted, two amazing lifestyle blogs for women, has invited us all to participate in a writing challenge that will inevitably force us to dig a little deeper and explore our creativity. It intrigues me, mainly I'm usually the one to skip details and sort of avoid the topic itself by writing around it. I encourage you all to participate as well; you may just learn a bit about yourself. Just the same, it will be a fun experience to learn about other people, who are also writers, artists, bloggers, etc.
With this daily project, the month of February will be stuffed with content on this blog, since there are a few post that I already have scheduled and the regular Soundtrack Saturdays will be posted along with all of that. I'm really excited and hope that some of you are inclined to join me!

Marianna Maletrov has known nothing but Croquet from the day she was born. She was the product of two of the Soviet Union's best players, planned by the state. Before she could crawl, she was inducted into the secret Soviet Program known as the "Mallet and Sickle". Since adopting the Communist doctrine, the Union of Soviet Socialists Republic had strived to prove their superiority to the world in every arena: science, industry, and croquet.
The Mallet and Sickle Program was designed to breed a perfect athlete, unbeatable both on and off the field. Their ideal was a Croquet playing Super Spy, who would not only win, but would be able to "deal with" any threat to complete Soviet domination.
The program was beyond the capacities of the human body, and every subject put through it perished. The director of the project was obsessed at ensuring the Soviet grip on the Croquet world was as strong as Russian steel.
Marianna presented a challenge for the program as she regularly exceeded expectations and machine tolerances. Scientists and other test subjects were routinely injured when handling her. On her 11th birthday, the day of her final test, an explosion obliterated the facility and every member of the scientific team. Maletrov made her way across the frozen wastes of Siberia where she was indoctrinated into the CroKGB.
The Russians were a force in the world of Croquet before, but with the addition of Maletrov, they were unbeatable. For five years, a Soviet Athlete took home every ICA championship, every Olympic Croquet medal, and every Croquet World Cup.
Things looked bleak as corporations began to back Soviet players, and import Russian coaches. Economists began to call it, "The End of Capitalism". Even with the US military tied up with Communist "containment" in South Asia, they couldn't rectify the severe economic shifts occurring in the world.
Maletrov was dispatched to key locations to participate in ParaMilitary Croquet matches, to reinforce the absolute dominance of Russian Croquet.
America's last chance came with the Winter Olympic Games, with a rag tag team of extraordinary individuals. Marianna and her team dismissed the American team, relaxing and reading poetry before the match. Unfortunately for Marianna, it was the greatest underdog story in the history of croquet, and the Americans pulled off the impossible. The "Miracle on Grass", as it was later dubbed, spelt the end of Marianna Maletrov's croquet career. Marianna didn't have to guess at the consequences of her failure, as her hotel room burst into flames later that night.
By then, Marianna was long gone. The Soviet Union would see to her destruction at every turn, and without their protection, foreign governments sought to bring her to justice for a long history of assassinations. She cut all ties and went underground, working for independent contractors, shadow governments, and mercenary organizations. The world was in turmoil, and the effects of her loss rippled outwards, and though Marianna had made many enemies, there was no doubt that few could rival her specific skill set. To stay off the grid, she never worked for the same groups twice, and she didn't bat at an eye of killing her employer should the need arise.
Just like in her youth, she was a dangerous and unbeatable, a live wire on a short fuse. At every moment, though, she was free. Never tethered, never caged, nothing could ever entrap the deadly Marianna Maletrov. . .
until today.

What is inside photographer's bag is usually a well kept secret. Some photographers are happy to share it, some keep it to themselves, but on average we almost all use the same tools and the final result depends more on the creativity of the photographer, technical knowledge, eye for composition & small details, luck and of course post-processing.
'In My Photography Bag' series of articles we aim to collect and look at the work of established & upcoming skateboard photographers of past and present, as well as riders turned photographers and show what can be achieved with both simple & sophisticated tools available on the market.
We continue the series with photographer Maksim Kalanep - London based freelance photographer.
Maksim Kalanep: What I currently own and use are mostly Nikon cameras, lenses and accessories. My very first camera that I owned was a digital SLR Nikon D200. Up to that moment I've already tried Zenit E film camera from my grandad, as well as Nikon D70 digital, Nikon FM2 & FM3 film cameras at the university. Since then I've been through Nikon D700, lots of Nikon 50mm lenses variations, Nikon D750 & Nikon D800 which I lost in the accident, and several film cameras. I've stopped for now on Nikon D810 digital body and Nikon F100 film camera. As for my lighting setup I'm using 4x Nikon Speedlights with Pocket Wizard Plus II radio triggers. The full range of my past and present equipment with photo examples is listed below.
Nikon D810
This is my main camera body. It's a great all around camera with more than enough resolution and dynamic range for almost any situation. Not ideal for low light, but acceptable.
Nikon 16mm f/2.8 D
Great for any skateboard photography situation when space is limited or traditional skateboard angle of view is required. I'm not so good with fisheye, I do get acceptable results from time to time, but it's more luck than consistency. Shooting Eric Koston below was a lot of pressure, but I think we got a fine result in the end.
Nikon 24mm f/1.8 G ED
I haven't yet had a chance to properly shoot with this lens, since I just bought it to replace both Nikon 20mm f/1.8 ED G & Nikon 28mm f/1.8 G lenses that I owned before.
Nikon 35mm f/1.8 G ED
My second favourite lens after Nikon 85mm f/1.8 G lens. I can shoot almost anything with these two lenses. Both are plasticky, but light and compact. Optically both are supreme on Nikon D810 body when stopped down a bit.
Nikon 60mm f/2.8 G ED
I only use 60mm lens to digitise my B&W film. Sometimes for extreme close ups. But it is still great to own one in case you need it.
Nikon 85mm f/1.8 G
My favourite lens since I got my very first 85mm - original Nikon 85mm f/1.8 D version. The modern G version has more resolving power on D800/D810 bodies, so once I upgraded from D700 that was a natural move as well. If you happen to shoot on D700 then D is a solid metal lens and performs as well. I'm mostly shooting at f/2.8 during day and open it up all the way to f/1.8 during low light situations. It's small, light and always delivers for a quarter of the price of its f/1.4 version - Nikon 85mm f/1.4 G ED.
Nikon F100
Probably the best film camera available second hand for a very reasonable price. Packs everything you need in a robust body including support for all the modern Nikon G lenses. Want to shoot fully manual - you can, fully automatic - you can, auto focus - you can. Have old Nikon lenses - no worries, have modern Nikon lenses with no aperture ring - not a problem at all.
Olympus MJU II
Great little pocket film camera with a fast 35mm 2.8 lens. Fully automatic, weather sealed and very reliable. Misses focus from time to time, though, which is to be expected.
Nikon SB-800, Nikon SB-600 & Nikon SB-80DX Speedlights
These speedlights are very compact, powerful enough and very reliable. Of course there are cheaper and more expensive alternatives, but these work for me.
Pocket Wizard Plus II Transceivers
I own 4 of these radio transmitters & triggers to accommodate my 3 flashes - one on camera body and 3 go with the flashes. They work flawlessly. There are cheaper alternatives these days, but I bought these a long time ago and see no reason to swap these for anything else at the moment.
Manfrotto Nano Stands
Very light, compact & affordable stands. Maybe not as sturdy as a classic stand, but more than enough for standard speedlights. I own 3 of these.
I use both LowePro Mini Trekker AW & Billingham Hadley Pro. Both are tried and tested and more than enough for a daily setup - camera body, couple of prime lenses and a laptop.
Peak Design Leash neck strap - very compact, strong and easy to put and take the camera off it.
Computer & Backup
I use 2013 MacBook Pro Retina 13' in basic configuration for quick edits on the spot, I carry it with me most of the time, fits nicely in both LowePro & Billingham bags. As for the backup I use Lacie Rugged 1TB.
Used To Own
Digital cameras: Nikon D750, Nikon D800, Nikon D700, Nikon D200, Fuji X100.
Lenses: Nikon 10.5mm f/2.8 G ED, Nikon 20mm f/1.8 G ED, Nikon 24-85mm f/2.8-4 D, Nikon 28mm f/2.8 D, Nikon 28mm f/1.8 G, Nikon 35mm f/2 D, Nikon 50mm f/1.4 G, Nikon 50mm f/1.4 D, Nikon 50mm f/1.8 D, Nikon 50mm f/1.8 E, Nikon 50mm f/1.8 G, Nikon 85mm f/1.8 D, Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8 G ED VR II.

Adapting to differing environmental conditions is called acclimatization.
People who are newly introduced to a hot, humid climate and
are moderately active in it can acclimatize in 8 to 14 days. People
who are sedentary take much longer. Until they are acclimatized,
people are much more likely to develop heat injuries.
A person's ability to perform
effectively in hot, humid conditions depends on both his acclimatization
and level of fitness. The degree of heat stress directly depends
on the relative workload. When two people do the same task,
the heat stress is less for the person who is in better physical
condition, and his performance is likely to be better. Therefore,
it is important to maintain high levels of fitness.
Increased temperatures and
humidity cause increased heart rates. Consequently, it takes much
less effort to elevate the heart rate into the training zone,
but the training effect is the same.
Some important changes occur
as a result of acclimatization to a hot climate. The following
physical adaptations help the body cope with a hot environment:

Game 1 box score - Hillsdale 5, Alderson-broaddus 0
Game 2 box score - Alderson-Broaddus 6, Hillsdale 4
March 10, 2013 - Sophomore pitcher Shane Armstrong pitched his way out of trouble several times, and pitched his way into his first win of the season Sunday afternoon.
Armstrong tossed five shutout innings, and Jon Hanrahan contributed two strong innings of relief work as the Hillsdale College baseball team defeated Alderson-Boraddus 5-0 in the first game of their doubleheader at Toledo's Mercy Field. The Battlers came back to win game 2, 6-4.
Hillsdale, off to its best start in 10 years, is 5-3 on the season and next plays in Florida next week.
Armstrong's clutch pitching, plus clean work in the field by the Charger defense, were the keys to the win. They forced A-B to strand 11 batters in the game. This was Hillsdale's first shutout win in nearly a full year (March 17, 2012). Armstrong struck out five batters in five innings of work.
While on offense, Hillsdale got a little something from everyone, as six different players recorded base hits and five different player scored runs. The Chargers plated two in the second and third innings to give Armstrong a nice cushion to work with.
Senior Mike Vanchieri, freshman Geordy Smith and freshman Tad Sobieszczanski each had a hit, RBI and a run scored.
The Battlers took an early lead in game 2, and led 6-2 in the sixth before the Chargers mounted a comeback. Freshman Lincoln Reed went 2-for-3 with 2 RBI, while Sobieszczanki and Smith each had a hit and a run scored.
Playing four games in his hometown of Toledo, Sobieszczanski had a sizzling weekend at the plate, going 7-for-11 against the Battlers. He is one of several freshmen who have contributed to the Chargers' good start to the season. Six of the nine starters in the batting order were freshmen on Sunday.

New Delhi: Isolated in its opposition to quota in promotion for SC/ST in government jobs, Samajwadi Party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav, who threatened to review support to UPA on the issue, on Monday said the government should work towards providing reservation to Muslims.
"We will think about continuing support," Yadav told reporters outside Parliament when asked if his party was contemplating such a move.
His remarks came as his party in Rajya Sabha today demanded proportionate reservation for Muslims through a Constitutional amendment in an apparent move to counter the push for quota in promotion for SC/ST in government jobs.
Referring to the Sachar committee report, Yadav said the condition of the Muslim community is worse than SC and ST. "Muslims` condition is very band. Therefore, reservations should be provided to them and there is not alternative to this".
To another question, he asserted that he has not "succumbed to any pressure" in the wake of the ongoing CBI investigation against him.
Party leader Ram Gopal Yadav (SP) said in Rajya Sabha that Sachar Committee in its report pointed out that "when quota in promotion (for SC/ST) can be given by amending Constitution, then why Muslims should not be given reservation in proportion to their population through a Constitution Amendment Bill".

Teen Mom Jenelle Evans has built a reputation as one of the uber-villains of the MTV series. Between cat fights on the streets in her North Carolina town and failing court-mandated drug testing, it's a fair description. But a fight with mom Barbara that brought out the cops last month may say more about what isn't Jenelle's fault than what is.
Police were allegedly called by Barbara because her teenage daughter was "destroying" the family's residence, cursing, and more. When the cops actually showed up, they got conflicting reports from the two women in little Jace's life, and Jenelle's mom decided not to press charges.
Jenelle admitted on her Twitter account that there's some truth to the whole incident, although naturally she blamed the whole thing on her mom. Which begs the question: if Barbara can't even handle her now teenaged daughter without calling in the cops, is she really the best "parent" for little Jace?
The reality show has chronicled Jenelle's decision to relinquish custody of her son to her mom, a decision that seems best considering the girl's marked instability. But I can't be the only (admittedly avid) watcher of the show who has sat back and wondered: if Barbara is the (single) parent who raised one of reality TV's most disrespectful, irresponsible, often downright cruel teenagers ... is she really going to fare better a second time?
From the police reports, Barbara called police because her kid knocked stuff off of her dresser. Whether it was done on purpose (as Barbara alleges) or on accident (Jenelle's side), the fact is this mother and grandmother lacks some serious coping skills and the ability to reason with a flesh and blood "threat."
And yet, she's allowed the daughter who was shown on TV stealing her credit cards to continue to live in her house. Photos on Jenelle's Twitter over time show she was allowed to spend time with the baby even while she was still on drugs. And then there's the call to the cops over something that Barbara herself said wasn't a "charge-worthy" offense.
Jenelle has her issues. There's no excusing her. But grandma needs to get her head on straight or little Jace has no hope.
Does this latest fight leave you wondering if this kid will make it out of that house with any sense of right from wrong?

Just received from Rich today:
Hey Val,
As you all know, part 2 of The Attention Age Doctrine will be released very soon. I thought it would be a good idea to keep your brain juices flowing on The Attention Age itself - what it brings to the table - and also show you how you can really optimize your productivity and attention for profit.
I've created a quick exercise on how to create your own attention bubble - a bubble where you can really get things accomplished.
In order for you to actually create your "happy" bubble, you have to first be able to know what THE ATTENTION AGE demands of you... and how mastering it will really propel your business.

A Reminiscent Ramble
"Aging is mandatory, maturing is optional."
- Unknown
This time 365 days ago I was probably curled up on my bed writing this poem. I just read it again, and I've realized how much further my poetry skills have come. *makes face* It is one thing at least, that I have noticed a change in for the better.
Sometimes when I look back on time - back on the most recent twelve months of my life - it seems that only little insignificant things have changed in the space of the year. Maybe my writing has improved, or I have learnt how to shuffle paperwork more aptly. Maybe I do all the washing without help now, or I can drive places by myself. Maybe I can do the entire family's grocery shopping on my own, or I can make a business phone-call without my voice shaking and stuttering - as much. Or maybe I've become a part of a team project, or that I've noticed the latest song my littlest siblings play on the piano over and over - and over - again is actually a little more difficult than the last one.
Okay, so maybe they aren't really that insignificant. In fact, they are all good things that I am supremely grateful for! But is it only "things" or abilities that one notices in themselves over the passing of time? Can't one notice areas that are much more important? I frown as my thoughts run deeper into more serious things. Have I become more mature? Do I think more before I speak? Are my thoughts ones full of genuine love for others? Have I learnt to be even kinder to my siblings? Do I daily exhibit a Godly example to those around me? Have I become more responsible and diligent? Am I becoming more capable of fulfilling the things God has in store for me? Have I become wiser in how I deal with situations and people?
Is there even a way to measure the depth of one's wisdom and experience? Though no one can ever fully "arrive" in this life, is there some way we might could tell just how far along we have got?
"Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith..."
- Hebrews 12:2
Looking... ever looking... searching, reaching for the goal - Jesus. He Alone is our standard. The way He lived is the way we also should strive to live. In looking back on the last year of my life I see so many lessons learnt - most of them by the hard way. Yet ever pushing towards the goal of doing what's right. Surely there is no greater joy in choosing a course of action and knowing in your heart it's right. Not by what anyone says, what any law tells you, but by what God has shown you.
At times I feel like sitting down in the middle of the road and looking back down the way I have come; bemoaning the times I strayed, or deliberately detoured. Will I ever learn? Will the work God has begun in me ever be perfected, more like His Son Jesus to become, or will I yet remain the wandering, short-sighted, impatient, difficult-to-teach person that I am?
"Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may obtain it."
- 1 Corinthians 9:24
Then other times I turn and look upwards; towards the horizon to which I must run, and I am filled with fire. Oh yes, it is so far to go - but I will run with all my might! For what lessons are there to be learned on the morrow? And what new things will my Saviour open my eyes to? And what awesome things will He perform in my life? There is so much life on this road if you walk the way with Him. It is the only Way - and He the only One who can make your worst mistakes become objects of glory... His glory.
Though this night - the last night of my nineteenth year - is far spent, the day of my twentieth is at hand. May I throw off the works of darkness: the past and its mistakes that desires to hold me back. That I may put on the armour of light, in which I shall run the race that has been set before me with endurance.
Throwing open the windows of the morning - reveling in the sunshine of God's goodness as it floods in. Praising Him, and asking with a ready heart:
"Lord, what will you show me today?"

Le Modern Baroque!24 Feb
You know what I love? Baroque style! It's something that I really admire since I was little and I saw those voluptuous dresses on some movie, for the first time! Those extravagant hair styles, the glamorous patterns and textures, those dresses' curved shapes and, of course, the exuberant make-up! All the details made my eyes shine of amazement! Well… I guess it still does.
I collected some products that were inspired by 'Le Baroque' style! Oh! Oui mademoiselle! J'adore!

NYC | The City11 Feb
I won't say anything about these pics… just see for yourself!
Ok… maybe 1 thing that defines Manhattan and can't be on photos: the smell! There are so many fragrances in the air. I don't think I will be able to put it on words, but I'll try: it's a mix of hot dogs, popcorn, perfume, people, cars,fruit… It's really bizarre, since I've never felt anything like that before.
When I went to visit Brooklyn and New Jersey it was completely different, it was like you could 'smell' the difference. I felt that something was missing, I felt I was no longer in New York, because Manhattan has this characteristic smell and frenzy of people, which makes you feel like you are really in the desert, when you visit other places in New York.

We go to the theatre on and off, mostly picking the eyes of a season for the big names, or plays of particular interest. I've only intermittently subscribed, and then to Belvoir and Sydney Theatre Company. We struggle with so much on (town and country, two orchestra subs, big Hayes Theatre fans, this and that, travel and work, at home and not). And I am on mailing lists of many theatres and companies (Seymour, State, and Carriageworks all doing really interesting stuff).
So, here's how to get it right, and in this instance I'm talking about Sydney Theatre Company.
First, send an email with the season details announcing renewals, dates etc noting New (non-renewing) Season ticket sales commence Oct 14
Next, have a good season ~~

Two sought in teen's attempted abduction
Two men are being sought by police for trying to kidnap a 14-year-old girl Monday afternoon as she walked alone on an East Oakland street.
The attempted abduction happened about 4:30 p.m. in the 1400 block of 103rd Avenue.
Police said the girl was approached from behind by one of the suspects who grabbed her and tried to pull her to a red pickup truck parked nearby driven by another man.
The man who grabbed her is described as white, mid to late 20s, tall, about 140 to 150 pounds with a thin build. He had shoulder length blond hair and was clean shaven.
He wore a white T-shirt, black pants and brown work shoes.
The driver was described as white, with the same general characteristics as the other suspect. He had a goatee and short, brown, spiked hair.
The truck was a two-door red pickup with an extended cab, about a 2000 year model.

Outlet mall opens Thursday; expect delays
Livermore police are warning shoppers to be wary of heavy traffic expected for the opening of the Paragon Outlets this week.

Police are reminding drivers to drive carefully and be aware of pedestrian traffic and to expect heavy traffic on Interstate 580 in the area.
Livermore police will have additional staff working throughout the weekend at the mall to keep traffic flowing and to provide security to the stores and parking lot.
The mall is located off I-580 at El Charro Road.

Robbers seen casing bank before heist
Minutes before they robbed a downtown bank Monday afternoon, two suspects were seen casing a nearby Chinatown bank but did not commit a heist there, police said Tuesday.
After leaving the East West Bank, 900 Webster St., about 12:36 p.m., the two men went to the Bank of the Orient, 360 12th St., at 12:42 p.m. Monday, according to police.
Officer Frank Bonifacio said while one of the men stood as a lookout, the second simulated a weapon underneath his sweatshirt, said he had a gun and demanded money before leaping over a counter and taking cash on the counter.
Both men fled on foot northbound on Webster Street.
Authorities would only say they escaped with more than $1,000.

Man fatally struck by SUV identified
An elderly man who was struck and killed by an SUV during the weekend has been identified by the Contra Costa Coroner's Office. Robert Vidakovich, 78, of Concord, was crossing Clayton Road at Denkinger Court at 8:39 a.m. Saturday when he was struck by a 2010 Mercury Mariner. He was taken to John Muir Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.
The driver, a 42-year-old Concord man, was arrested on suspicion of vehicular manslaughter after the accident but was later released, according to Concord police Sgt. John Nunes. He told police at the time that sunlight and condensation on his windshield had temporarily blinded him.
Detectives are awaiting the results of toxicology reports before deciding whether to seek formal charges, Nunes said.

I often get requests to provide statistics for such and such page or file. Here is some text to copy and paste when necessary as a disclaimer.
- Look at and compare trends in visitor numbers, across time periods, regions.
- Check the impact of particular marketing activities, for example, sending out a newsletter.
- Look at your top pages overall, and top 'landing' pages (the first page someone visits on your site) as they can give you an indication of which pages you should put most effort into.
- Check which keywords people are using to get to your site, and whether there are obvious keywords missing. If there are, then you might need to invest some time in search engine optimisation activity (a post on search engine optimisation to come soon).
- Read too much into a specific number or percentage, as these can easily be wrong. There are many reasons for this, outlined below.
- Think that the USA is more important in terms of visitors than it is – this is especially the case if you are using server log software (see below) that might over-report search engines, the majority of which are based in the USA.
Why numbers can't necessarily be trusted
Different tools work in different ways. Server logs sit on the web server and note down each time a file is accessed. You can then use some log analysis software to produce reports that look nice. However, statistics can be skewed by:
- Internet providers keeping a local copy of a page and serving this up to the user rather than requesting a new copy from the server. The server therefore doesn't know the page was ever there.
- Search engine visits included in the logs. Search engines visit pages hundreds of times a month, and if your log analysis software doesn't know about a certain search engine, it can look like your figures are much higher than you thought.
Google Analytics and some other stats websites work by receiving messages from a internet user when a page is accessed – this message is generated by a piece of code included on every page of the website. This can lead to the following anomalies:
- Search engine visits are less likely to be an issue, as most of the stats websites have an up-to-date list of search engines and excluded them from reported statistics.
- As PDF files and the like are not webpages, and cannot therefore include calls to the analytics website, they are not counted. There are ways around this, by altering the code on links on a site to include a call when they are clicked, but this still doesn't cover every download (for example, if someone clicks a link to a PDF from another site which doesn't therefore include a call to analytics).

Okay, so it's the final post from Disney! Brought to you by Walt Disney Studios, home of the Aerosmith Rock n' Roller Coaster!
Ahh, Captain Eo. The greatest, cheeseiest, most ridiculous thing in Disney! Watch and marvel at Michael Jackson being the galaxy's most unconvincing space captain!
Lillian in her natural habitat, the sweet shop.
I love this cute little pumpkin patch!
The teacups are one of my favourite rides, but I always have to go on alone because they make Lillian feel sick. I love having a twirl myself!
The Cinderella Carousel, aw yisss!
These amazing mushrooms live at Downtown Disney. It's great to step up to one and feel like a tiny pixie.
We met Dale in his cute little ghost costume! I always liked Dale better than Chip.
We also met Gideon! He was throwing out gang signs the whole time. Bad Disney representative!
Lillian and her kindred spirit, Rex.
Umbrellas over Cherbourg! Lillian wants this in our house. It was so hard getting this photo because of a scumbag kid who kept deliberately getting into my shot. You can see him in the glass at the far left. >:(
We got pretty addicted to Coca Cola on this trip.
One more ride before we leave Disney!
We had one day before we went back to have a whirlwind trip of Paris! I have never been before, and I absolutely loved it! I'm definitely coming back, once I've brushed up my GCSE French.
That's all for now! x

In the following essay, Murphy explores "some of the strategies James employs to prevent a consistent reading of the text."
For ours is a most fictile world; and man is the most fingent plastic of creatures. A world not fixable; not fathomable!
—Carlyle, The French Revolution
Since its publication eighty years ago, The Turn of the Screw has enjoyed a double life. After Daisy Miller, perhaps James's most widely read piece of fiction, it has captivated readers, both naive and acute, as a tale of the grotesque in which a young and apparently good-hearted governess discovers the existence of ghosts at the country estate where she has been employed. Approached in a different fashion, however, it has equally captivated other readers as a revealing exemplum...

The Rio Grande Valley is very blessed to have Comfort House (Casa del Consuelo) and its staff and volunteers providing a home-like setting with round-the-clock care to terminally ill persons. When my son, Justin, volunteered there a few years ago, he was so impressed with the loving, caring environment provided to both the residents and their friends and family, it was a very rewarding experience.
Comfort House is proudly marking its 20th year of service this month. This licensed, non-profit Special Care Facility located in McAllen has served over 1,500 persons and their families from the entire Rio Grande Valley and beyond, relying solely on donations from the families, the business community, and small grants from the City of McAllen and the United Way ESG Program.
Comfort House�s mission is to provide an environment where a person can die in tranquility and with dignity. Fundraising is crucial to continue serving, as Comfort House does not receive any government funding nor does it bill for services.
For those who enjoy music and delicious food, I invite you to come to a fundraiser on Saturday, Oct. 17 from 6:30 p.m. to midnight at the RGV Harley � Davidson at 1201 S. Bentsen Road in McAllen. It is the 6th Annual RGV Blues Festival. Attendees will enjoy the best of the blues bands, LiL� Ed and the Blues Imperials � voted the Best Blues Band of 2009. Also playing are the Poco Loco Blues Band and Texas Heat.
A catered meal will be provided by Outback Steakhouse, and there will be more fun with a silent auction and raffles. Tickets are $25 and are available Comfort House or can be purchased at RGV Harley-Davidson before the event or at the door.
Sponsors for this event include Valero Energy Corp., Capital One Bank, Ric Brown Family Funeral Home, and IPH Hospice.
In observance of their 20th anniversary, also planned is an open house at Comfort House on Friday, Oct. 16 from 12 noon to 4 p.m. This Sharing the Caring event will include staff and volunteer sharing their experiences and story telling. Anyone interested in attending any of these events should call 687-7367.
As to the history, it was founded in October 1989 by Sr. Marian Strohmeyer, RSM, under the auspices of the Diocese of Brownsville. It is now a 10-bedroom, open-diagnosis facility for ANY person with a prognosis of 4 or less months of life.
End-of-life (hospice) care is often provided in the patient�s home with the support of a local hospice provider, but sometimes the patient�s family is unable to cope with the responsibility. Additionally, some hospice patients do not have family or friends to care for them. This is where Comfort House fills the need in the community.
Family members and loved ones are encouraged to participate in their loved one�s care as they are willing and able. Many times, it is the family members who find Comfort House to be the best place to be during this sorrowful time in their lives. They are about to lose someone they love.
Hospice is not curative, but palliative in concept in that it places emphasis on providing a comforting and dignified setting for the patient. The hospice team of professionals and volunteers coordinate pain management, medical, emotional, and spiritual support while respecting the rights of the patient for his or her own participation.
Volunteers remain an integral part at Comfort House. They are trained to provide both the patient and family with companionship, homemaker services, caregiving training and compassionate support.
Administrator, Mary Botello, states that every person who comes through their doors immediately becomes family. Death is probably the least-prepared-for event in a person�s life, but Comfort House is a special place that believes that death is an integral part of the life cycle, and that their work is to do their best for the living and not the dying. Indeed, the time that any terminally-ill person is there at Comfort House is considered to be a very special gift for the family and those around them. Please feel free to call 956-687-7367, or come by at 617 Dallas Avenue, McAllen, to learn about this very special work or for volunteering opportunities.
Let�s support Comfort House�s vital role in the Rio Grande Valley. I encourage everyone to attend the open house and fundraiser. You can mail a donation or plan to attend the open house and fundraiser. Your contribution is invaluable!
