Description of John Key posted on Ancestry by descendant Gene Key
The description given of John Key Born 1696 who married Martha Tandy. This was found in his Revolutionary War Records — "John Key was 6'6″ tall, thin, red complexion and had a Queer Looking Face." Of course, the word queer had a different meaning back in his day — he just looked different. And, John Key perhaps has more descendents than just about any other Colonial Virginia Key. – Gene Key [10]
Present day "Key West." This home was built on the site of "Key West" of 1732 which was the home of John and Martha Tandy Key. It is on the banks of the Rivanna River in Charlottesville, Virginia at 405 Key West Drive.

Mumbai, April 13
Divya Dutta, who won the Best Supporting Actress for her performance in the film 'Irada' at the 65th National Film Awards on Friday, says it is such achievements that make her feel alive as an actor.
"The actor in me feels alive again and am grateful that there is appreciation pouring in. I am overjoyed with the news," Divya said.
She has been getting one good news after another.
"First, my film 'Manto' going to the Cannes Film Festival and now the National Award…I am overwhelmed. After a 100-odd films, this is my first National Award and I am going to treasure this moment. It means the world," Divya added.
In 'Irada', Divya played the role of a minister. The movie, which also features Naseeruddin Shah and Arshad Warsi, also bagged the Best Environment Film Award.
As the compassionate helper Shabbo in 'Veer-Zaara' or as the lower-caste Jalebi in 'Delhi-6', Divya has proved her versatility time and again with strong roles.
Her Bollywood journey had started in 1994 with 'Ishq Mein Jeena Ishq Mein Marna'.

Meet NELSON, age 17 - CHILD SUPPORTED BY NDEKE ECZ
Nelson lives with his mother and brother, Grant, 20 years
Nelson's father passed away in 2002. His name was Banueil.
Out of all the kids I've met in Zambia, there is something unique about the way Nelson loves. I was deeply touched by our time together. Nelson is 17 years old, but thinks he is 13. In the words of his pastor, Pastor Vincent, "he has mental challenges". He struggles to speak and shakes. The condition developed after his father's death in 2002. He was diagnosed at Ndola's UTH Hospital as "having part of the brain having a misfunction."
Due to these challenges, he is unable to go to a school with the kids nearby because the public school system lacks any support for Nelson. In partnership with Forgotten Voices, the Ndeke ECZ church he attends is helping pay some of the costs for Nelson to attend a training program for agriculture, geared for people with some of these challenges. The Zambian government pays the tuition.
He really wants to be in agriculture so he can earn money to support his family. When I asked him what animal he would be for the rest of his life, he said: "I would be a cow because they are involved in farming and I like farming."
When I told him that there would be hundreds of people praying for him after reading his story on Facebook, the blog, twitter, and in churches, he burst into tears --- overwhelmed by the needs before him and thankful for you.
There are so many kids that I've met here already, but my time with Nelson really jumped out at me. I couldn't start the new day without sharing his story. I ask you to pray.
Specifically, Nelson asked us to pray that he stops shaking and that people can understand him when he talks, because he feels rejected and misunderstood.
I have a powerful video interview with Nelson that I'll post when I get back, as the internet is too slow to post it here.
Please do take a moment and pray for him. And join me in praising God for his provision for Nelson, his mother, and Nelson's brother, Grant (age 20).
I just typed up notes for 8 children that I met yesterday. I HOPE to post at least one more before the end of the day here. On a lesser note, please pray for me, as the skin infection I've developed over the past few days is incredibly sore. I'm in a lot of pain all day. I've had it before and the doctors in the states assure me it is not contagious. But I'm in a ton of pain -- about as much pain as I've ever experienced. Please pray.
Thanks for allowing us to do this --- equipping churches to care for children -- precious children like my new friend, Nelson.

In response to The Daily Post's writing prompt: "Secret Admirers."
She was just writing a new piece of poem, one that she could proudly send to her publisher. She needs this one last poem to complete her new work. She hopes that the swaying of the trees outside would inspire her. But the old heater in her apartment room seems to be distracting her more than anything, it does not work properly because she was still feeling the cold windy air.
She was scribbling random lines on her notebook when the rumbling machine of the truck brought her back to her cold apartment room. She peeked outside only to see the backlight of the moving truck. She cursed under her breath because for the umpteenth time she forgot to put out her trash bag for the truck to pick up. Now, she had to walk several metres to the dumping ground; she would not have mind doing that if it is not February. The news have said that this year's winter is one of the coldest one, and so the prospect of having to walk out in the cold just to throw her trash bag does not seem that appealing to her. Against her craving to stay in her room, even though it might have been as cold as being outside, she put on her boots and her coat. She had to throw the trash bag.
On moment like these that she is grateful that her mother taught her to always look down when you're coming inside or going outside of your room. When she is about to step out of her apartment room, she saw the bouquet of roses and the box of chocolate just laying there in front of her door. Maybe someone had knock her door while she was in the bathroom, she thought to herself. She brought the gifts inside and set the gifts on her table. She noticed the small envelope tuck amongst the roses and was tempted to see who the sender was, but she knows better not to stray from her plan. She left the gifts and went out to throw the trash bag first, then she would see who the sender was.
She was suppressing a smile when she brought the small envelope to her small couch across the television. Who could have sent her a bouquet of roses and a box of chocolate on a Valentine's day? She had broken up with her previous boyfriend a mere three months ago. Could it be him? She highly doubt so. They didn't broke up on good terms.
She was disappointed to see that there was no name of the sender, safe for the message "thou shalt love thyself" addressed to her. Well, at least these gifts were definitely for her; this was not some stray gifts that some delivery person had mistakenly left on her door. But who could have sent this to her? Does she look that pathetic to have someone sent something like this to her on a Valentine's Day?
She text her sister and brother simultaneously; both swore up and down that they did not send anything for her. She knew there is no way her siblings would have sent something like this for her, not even for a prank. Her sister was too much of a cheapskate and her brother is too busy and lazy to actually order something like this. Could it be her parents? Highly impossible; her mum hates Valentine's Day and her dad does not even have an inch of an idea to even order a pizza through a phone call. But she had to at least ask them, right? But what is she going to say? No, she would not risk the embarrassment from her parents; she was embarrass enough from asking about this to her siblings, she does not need another embarrassment.
The first day after the she received the gifts was filled with questions. Who would have the nerve to play with her feelings like that? She tried to be positive, maybe the sender meant well. But, surely the sender know her enough that she broke up with her boyfriend because her boyfriend cheats on her and then left her for the new girl just to got married to her a mere two months after they broke up. Obviously sending her these gifts on a Valentine's Day is just a cruel joke.
The following days were just a blur. She is still filled with questions, but it does not bother her anymore. She was suddenly overflowed with inspiration. She was just constantly writing new poems, more than her publisher had asked for. Suddenly she was filled with an energy she thought she never had. It does not matter who sent her the gifts, what matter is the roses were beautiful and it had made her bland apartment looked more colourful. She went to the florist more often now, asking questions about how to take care of roses and start buying small house plant also. Her bland apartment now looks more lively than before and she liked it.
The chocolates were also delicious, she had to asked her sister to come and finished the whole box, and surely her sister brought their brother also. The three of them eventually spent the weekend together with the box of chocolates, two boxes of pizza and a deck of Cards against Humanity, courtesy of both her siblings. They decided to crash her apartment and it feels like years since the three of them spent time together. She had missed them, and only when they were laughing over the game of Cards against Humanity that she realised that her breakup had brought the siblings together again, of course the box of chocolate was a contributing factor also.
By next week, she had forgotten about the gifts altogether. The roses had wilt away and she had replaced it with another bouquet of roses and this time she would seriously try to keep the roses a bit longer than the last. The box of chocolate had joined the rest of her trash in her trash bag that she had not forgot to put out for the truck to take on the scheduled day. More than anything, she had enjoyed staying in her apartment now. Of course there were still remnants of her previous life when she was together with her boyfriend, but the new wallpaper that her brother had picked for her and the new bed sheet that her sister had picked for her had given her apartment a new breath, it almost feels like it is a new apartment altogether. She also payed more attention to herself as she looked in the mirror, she had decided that the message was, in every sense, the kind of message that she needed the most. She should love herself, and she had failed to do so the past few years. She was too busy loving someone else, she forgotten about herself.
Just like she forgot about the gifts again only to be reminded by her credit card bill. What was this purchase on a shop with a French name? She never been to a shop like this before. She was sure of it. She only uses her credit card only for online purchases and an occasional shopping in a clothing department store. She decided she was going to the shop tomorrow and ask the shop about this phantom purchase with her credit card.
Surprisingly it was easy to find and locate the shop; it was just two blocks away from the publishing company. She was glad that everything had come to her before she had asked the shop about the phantom purchase, that happened to not even be phantom.
Some one month ago when she had first heard from her sister that her ex-boyfriend was going to get married with the woman that he had cheated on her with, she felt like she was in a limbo. That was the beginning of her downfall. She stop cleaning her apartment apart from washing dishes, laundry and throwing out the trash, albeit always after the truck had left her building. She had stop trying to find inspiration for her next poetry book. She had stop joining her siblings for random lunch or random weekend getaway. She stopped coming to her parents weekly dinner. She cuts herself from everything that was her life before.
One day her editor sent her an article, a stupid self-help article according to her. The whole article kept on repeating about how important it is for one to love oneself before one can love someone else. It had seemed simple to her at that time, and out of a whim and just to take crack at the article she had walked to the chic flower shop with a French name two blocks away from the publishing company.
She put an order for a bouquet of roses and a box of chocolate, she specifically said red roses because that was her brother's favourite flower; she also ordered a specific brand of chocolate that she knows her sister would liked. She asked the florist to write, "thou shalt love thyself" on the card. She kept on making sure that the florist remember to send the gifts on Valentine's Day, no later and no sooner than that. As the florist was swiping her credit card, the florist asked her for the address to where the gifts would be sent to. She gave her apartment's address to the florist, sign the receipt, and leave the chic flower shop with a French name.
She walked back to the publishing company, smiling to herself. She thinks to herself at how stupid her impulse act was. Who would be sad enough to send themselves a bouquet of flowers and a box of chocolate for Valentine's Day? It was not days later that she would have figured out that it was not pathetic at all. She needed the push, the big push to come back to the life that was hers; who else is better at pushing oneself if not oneself?

2.67 billion people* are expected to be on social media in 2018! So no matter what your buyer personas are there will always be someone on a platform. With so many different platforms, such as- Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube and Instagram you will always be able to generate a large amount of online exposure for your company.
Being on social media keeps you in competition with fellow companies and allows you to keep up to date with rivalry businesses. You don't have to be doing a social media campaign but just having a presence will help you out massively. Promoting a post on social media platforms allows reaching targeted and different people than normal; it is usually cheaper than other paid media as well.
70%** of B2C companies generate leads through Facebook! Facebook is the largest and most used social media platform. A massive amount of people are influenced by things that they see on social media.
Reviews that are left by people usually changes a person's opinion, so make sure that if you have a negative review you have replied to them publicly, this means that people will know that there is compassion behind the company name.
Social media allows you to get feedback on what your customers think about you as a company or the products and services you offer. Not all the time will these be positive things but being on these platforms allows you to get in contact with them to turn their negative experience into a positive, in turn this will also come out as a positive for you as a business. These are all free to sign up to and only take a couple of minutes to sign up to, meaning that you don't have anything to lose.
This is something that you need to be on board with. Marketing is changing a lot and you need to make sure that you are on board with the new types of media. This does not meant that you need to stop doing every other type of marketing, everything needs to be in moderation but doing the same things becomes boring for you and your customers. Social media has been proven to work, so what are you waiting for?

Jesse Jackson: "Jesus did not speak English!"In Jackasses, left wing lunacy on September 17, 2010 at 8:31 pm
On Sept. 11, 2010, Jesse Jackson was giving a speech in which he made the argument that America should not be a nation of English only, because "Jesus did not speak English". He evidently thought it was such a poignant argument that, when it was met with silence from his audience, he felt compelled to say, "Can I get an 'Amen'!".
But, Jackson is technically correct, Jesus did not speak English. Jesus did however, speak Aramaic, Hebrew, and Greek, as most people did in the region where he lived and ministered. The Greek language was spoken throughout the known world at the time, and was the defacto language of commerce.
Today, English is the defacto language of commerce.
"In today's business world, English is no longer viewed as a foreign language – it is the global means of communication: the language of communication wherever a deal is being done internationally. Officially, English now has a special status in more than 75 countries, with a total population of over 2 billion speakers."
So, while it is true that Jesus did not speak English, he did speak the language of commerce of the period, 'Greek'. Since, English is now the language of commerce, if Jesus had come into the world in our time, we think it would be reasonable to assume that he would speak English.
Inadvertently, Mr. Jackson has actually made a very good argument in the favor of the 'English-Only Movement'.
Ohioans Wish Bush Was Still PresidentIn Bush, Obama on September 9, 2010 at 6:50 pm
We have all seen this graphic. It is one which produces a strong reaction. "Oh, God Yes", or "Hell, No", depending on your political persuasion. Well, a recent poll shows that Ohio voters do miss ol' George and would prefer him in the White House right now rather than the Jackass-in-Chief Obama, by a 50 to 42 margin.
After all the time and effort spent by Democrats to demonize Bush as a war criminal and blame him for everything from natural disasters to the collapse of the economy, all I can say about this new poll is;
"Ouch, that's gotta hurt"!

All Liberal Arguments Lead to George W. BushIn Jackasses, left wing lunacy, Media, Obama on July 15, 2010 at 7:20 pm
When was the last time you saw a liberal being interviewed where the name of George W. Bush did not come up within the first five minutes? Chances are that it has been quite sometime. Liberal Democrats have been running against Bush since 2000, and even though there is evidence that the 'blame Bush' tactic is wearing very thin, they seem to not be able to stop. Here is a great example;
Even though the discussion is about what the Obama DOJ is doing right now, Kirsten Powers just can't help injecting the Bush administration into the argument debate not once, not twice, but five times. It is like a 'slap stick' comedy routine. No, really! It's like that old Abbott and Costello bit, "Who's on first", in which every effort Lou makes to find out the names of the players on the team, it keeps leading to third base.

In short: You may have never heard of Nicole Atkinn, but her music is so charming and "authentic", this song, the first single "The Way It Is" is the only reason anyone would need to convince anyone to love her, it's just.. perfect! of course if you're not into folksy stuff, it might be hard for you to like her, but please.. do give her a chance, her voice is magnificent! here's a live performance of the song, it's simply fantastic, but it starts a bit slow, guessing she was nervous, but she aces it towards the end.

Operation Nimrod: The Iranian Embassy Siege (Unabridged)
by Russell Phillips
Open iTunes to Buy
On April 29, 1980, British police assured Iran that their embassy was secure. The very next day, terrorists stormed the embassy and took 26 hostages. With the Iranian government willing to let the hostages become martyrs, and the British government only willing to talk if the terrorists surrendered, 26 lives hung in the balance. What followed was six days of tension and terror. It was finally ended when the SAS launched a daring rescue mission, broadcast live on television. Millions held their breath, waiting to see the outcome of Operation Nimrod.

A Follow Up To The B4B Initiative
Life sucks when you don't have any ideas to contribute.
Life also sucks when you think you have an awesome idea to contribute but others do not seem to think the same.
But life sucks the most when you think you have a great idea, others seem to agree with you but someone else had already beaten you to it.
|And this is your face when you're in the third situation
So I posted about this crazy idea I had yesterday, something about forming a bloggers for bloggers group or network that sort of thing and a few things have taken place since then. One, which was quite a delightful surprise to me, is that people actually paid attention to the post and there were a few positive response too. The second news however, was quite the opposite to the first one because I soon found out that there were others before me who had already implemented the idea.
First, as Kirsten pointed out, there's this newly established group called the SEASONed Bloggers (acronym for South East Asia Social Network) on Facebook which is roughly similar to what I first had in mind. They're looking to create a directory of blogs in Southeast Asia, building an official website and even creating a forum for discussion, which is like I said, everything that I had in mind.
So as for now, I might join this group first, put my idea on hold and see how things go from there. My only concern is that the group might not be as specific to a location like Singapore as it focuses on the Southeast Asia region and it gives me a too adult feel for my liking. But still, it's worth giving it a chance and I've already asked the group founders if its possible to have something like a dub-division or a branch of sorts here in Singapore.
The second group that I was introduced to by Rynaque was the Association of Bloggers Singapore which addresses on of my concerns in regards to the first group and chaired by one or two bloggers that I have met in real life.
But still, the group still proved too serious for my liking, due to the fact that is registered under the Home Ministry and stuff (or maybe it's because I'm too childish to begin with). And then there's another more major problem, inactivity. The last post in the group's blog was more than two years ago and a quick check in the main committee's blog revealed no new posts regarding the association. I suppose I could contact the main committee and ask them about it but then again, who would bother with a small fry blogger like me.
I guess the best bet would be to wait on the response from the SEASONed bloggers group and see how things go from there.
But in the meantime, we could also come up with something and perhaps affiliate ourselves with the SEASONed bloggers group later on. After all, the ability to reach out to readers overseas is not an opportunity to be missed.
To clarify, my initial idea about this whole bloggers initiative thing is very much similar to what the SEASONed bloggers had in mind. Firstly, it is platform for bloggers to connect with each other, meaning that there will be a directory listing the blogs belonging to members and the profile of the members who own them. It's a way of finding like minded bloggers around you and also to get to know people who share the same interests about you.
Secondly, the network can be mobilized as a mean to protect the rights of the members of the group, be it from businesses and politics. It could also serve as an advisory body to organizations looking to engage the help of bloggers and also to voice out any issues that may concern bloggers. For example, companies who mistreat bloggers or laws that aim to limit our rights.
And of course, fun should not be left out of the question here. The group could also be used to coordinate blogger outings or events that aim to foster better relationships between the members. Also, it can be used to find people for media invite events like food tasting or movie previews. Advertisements though may be a gray area.
Most importantly, the group can be used to generate discussion on everything ranging from current issues to blogging etiquette. Ideas could be exchanged and perhaps innovations and new initiatives could come from there. Of course, sensitive issues are discouraged but then again, I'm not someone who agrees with censorship and would think that self-censorship is sufficient.
So there you have it. A short update on what's been happening since the last post. You might want to check out the SEASONed bloggers here and also the Association Of Bloggers Singapore here to get a rough idea on how the blogosphere looks like now. And see where it goes from there. Or we could have an unofficial Singapore Youth Bloggers Club. I don't know. If this continues to generate discussion, perhaps a Facebook group can be created to continue on the discussion. As much as I would like the extra traffic, I must be neutral right? :p

Filed under: Uncategorized | Tags: Frenchkiss, Les Savy Fav, Let's Get Out of Here, Root For Ruin
After a way-too-long hiatus of 3+ years, Les Savy Fav is returning to our ears and hearts in September with Root For Ruin – yet another shit-hot addition to their hot streak of albums. The lovely bastards were even nice enough to share "Let's Get Out of Here" (my current favorite song on the album) for free. There aren't any grand sonic changes afoot on Root For Ruin. These guys have more or less cemented their Fav sound, but throw in tweaks here and there. Their lack of risk-taking can hardly be held against them because they have consistently delivered albums chock full of amazing songs. When their inevitable Greatest Hits collection is released years from now, you can be assured "Let's Get Out of Here" will be included.
Root For Ruin is out 9/14 on Frenchkiss.

Music, Art, and the Appeal of Gig Posters // femchord
When's the last time you thought about a poster?
When researching artists for gig posters, the best of lists that circulate on the internet or Pinterest had one thing in common: they were made up mostly, if not completely, by men.
To combat that, femchord is presenting three artists who you might not find in lists of gig poster artists. The women we've highlighted below are at different stages in their careers and take different approaches—one illustrates for major bands, one collages for a zine, and one reflects her space in the club culture. They are the artists that transform sound to visuals, and entice us to the events around us.
The Chef that made me // chickpea magazine
So when these new people ask the inevitable vegetarian questions, it ultimately leads to what it's like to be a chef's daughter? And I respond with this:
I notice it when I'm peeling carrots, the strings running wet into the trash like a Halloween massacre. Notice it when I'm dicing an onion, cutting into it's think bulb vertically before slicing the rings, watching the pieces fall into miniscule purple translucent rectangles just like he showed me. It's when I'm sifting through a myriad of recipes online or in the heft of a good cookbook. It's the first taste of something so good that the voices in your head silence and all you can do is feel, tasting. It's in these moments that I am a chef's daughter, that I'm home.
Winter Sounds: An Interview with Camwill // Thread magazine
It's starting to snow, gently, but the wind still rips down the Old North End street I'm standing on. Winter is finally settling into Vermont, but the subfreezing temperatures allow for the perfect setting to talk with the members of Cam Will about their first full length release.
Cameron Boyd, the head of Cam Will, opens the door to a typical ONE house and ushers me in off the porch. He's sporting the Burlington male go-to: a beard and a beanie.

How To Clean a Plastic Headlight Lensby Melissa Rae
Plastic headlight lenses can accumulate dirt, road grime and insect debris over time. If they're not cleaned often, debris will eventually oxidize the clear plastic, leaving an opaque haze on the surface. Dirty or hazy headlight lenses pose a danger to drivers and pedestrians due to lack of nighttime visibility. Clean your plastic headlight lens regularly to extend its life and restore its original clarity.
Fill a bucket with warm water and add car wash soap according to the package instructions.
Dip a sponge in the bucket, and wipe the plastic headlight lens with the sponge. Let the soap sit on the lens for five to 10 minutes if there's a large amount of debris. Wipe the lens with the scrubbing side of the sponge.
Rinse the headlight lens with clean water from a bucket or hose.
Dry the plastic headlight lens with a towel.
Apply a small amount of plastic polish to a soft buffing cloth as directed on the package. Rub the headlight lens in small, circular motions, applying firm pressure to remove any scratches.
Rinse the plastic lens with clean water from a hose or bucket if necessary.
Rub the headlight lens with a clean buffing cloth to dry it and bring out the shine.

Most of the issues in previous reviews seem to have been sorted out. The flat was clean and tidy and freshly painted, as was the rest of the building ( the painters were still there )
The cooker had no markings to show how to use the elements, trial and error the only way, and instructions re turning power on could be more obvious.
Very good base in Tenby with some great views when it wasn't raining :-) our dog loved the view from the windows. Reasonable accommodation but relatively basic, the windows were very old and plastic used to block the drafts. Facilities old and tired especially the cooker. Needs a make over.
It was very quite though and despite all other rooms were booked we could not hear any noise from other guests.
Free wifi was available but being on the 3rd floor we were too far away from the router and couldn't connect unless we stood on the stairs!
As a non smoker the real disappointment was the smell of smoke in the corriders coming from other rooms. In the evening the smell would come under the door into our living area. Not pleasant and a such would not go there again.

Every 12 seconds, Ziggs' next basic attack deals bonus magic damage. This cooldown is reduced whenever Ziggs uses an ability.
Ziggs throws a bouncing bomb that deals magic damage.
Ziggs flings an explosive charge that detonates after 4 seconds, or when this ability is activated again. The explosion deals magic damage to enemies, knocking them away. Ziggs is also knocked away, but takes no damage. Ziggs can use the Satchel to hexplode vulnerable enemy turrets.
Ziggs scatters proximity mines that detonate on enemy contact, dealing magic damage and slowing.
Ziggs deploys his ultimate creation, the Mega Inferno Bomb, hurling it an enormous distance. Enemies in the primary blast zone take more damage than those farther away.
With a love of big bombs and short fuses, the yordle Ziggs is an explosive force of nature. As an inventor's assistant in Piltover, he was bored by his predictable life and befriended a mad, blue-haired bomber named Jinx. After a wild night on the town, Ziggs took her advice and moved to Zaun, where he now explores his fascinations more freely, terrorizing the chem-barons and regular citizens alike in his never ending quest to blow stuff up.

Janice in Wheeling, WV #178 (Self Evaluation)
I'm not getting any younger. Looked in the mirror and saw an unfulfilled old lady longing for something but being so divorced from herself she doesn't even know what she needs. My boyfriend and I eating at some sit down chain restaurant on Friday night, coming home to watch TV and drink some white wine. Going to the beach for vacation every summer. Keeping my house clean and my yard trimmed. Watching my weight, exercising and eating healthy. If there isn't more to this life, then it's not worth living. (Morgan Garrett)

Hi everyone!
My name is Cheyenne Wood! I'm a sophomore at Syracuse University. I am pursuing a dual major in public relations and political science, and I am also on the pre-law track. I hope to attend law school and work in communications law in the future.
Outside of school I enjoy music, sports and the outdoors. I love traveling and attending concerts with my friends. I am a huge fan of Major League Baseball, specifically the Cleveland Indians. I am from Williamsport, Pennsylvania, a small town in the middle of the state. I like to make the most of it by kayaking and hiking during the summer. I am also a huge beach lover, and dream of living on the coast someday.
My website will feature a variety of my professional work and personal interests. Coursework and projects from Newhouse classes can be found. I also have a personal lifestyle blog. I do not have a specific theme or topic I want to focus entirely on. Rather, I plan to write about what is currently happening in my life and what I am thinking about. I hope to make this blog interesting and relatable.
Thanks for reading!

Their courage nerves a thousand living men." ~Minot J. Savage, Decorating the Soldiers' Graves
"Your silent tents of green
We deck with fragrant flowers;
Yours has the suffering been,
The memory shall be ours."~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Decoration Day
Today is the day we Americans have set aside to honor our warriors who have fallen in battle. Since the Vietnam War of the 70's, when America shamed herself by treating her veterans of that conflict poorly, we've swung to the opposite end of the spectrum in trying to out-do one another with expressing love for our military folks, both the living and the dead.
Many will thank a veteran or military service member today- and I can tell you on behalf of all of us, we don't want you to do that. This is NOT our day. This a day to honor those who have fallen in battle, not those of us who lived through the battle, nor those of us who've never seen battle. We appreciate your sentiment, but we do not wish to take from those who gave the sacrifice of their lives here on earth in war.
A lot of folks will post a Facebook meme or say a silent prayer or put out a flag and then race off to their barbecues, picnics, and "unofficial start of summer" celebrations.
So, what do I suggest that you do to honor them?
I can guarantee you that those who fell in battle (and those of us who live) want you to go to those picnics, barbecues, pool parties and the like because those are freedoms you enjoy in America. You can cook and eat what you want here. You can dance and swim and play. Your children can squeal in delight as they run through a sprinkler or jump into a pool. You can choose where you want to celebrate- at the beach, a friend's home, in an American state park.. all of these are things that many in the world cannot do.
Because they live under tyranny and oppression. They are not able to eat as well as you, nor would their children be safe in a park or in the back yard playing, and a sprinkler or swimming pool would be unheard of where they live. You can pursue your happiness here as a right, not a privilege.
That's what these brave folks died trying to preserve. Oh, don't get me wrong. Our government has sent people out to wars that were unjust and not truly fighting for "Freedom"; but those who didn't make those decisions and who gave their lives did so for the ideal of freedom and love of this country. They made a conscious choice to serve "We the People" at all costs, including their lives.
I don't ask that you spend the day mourning them, or that you have to be solemn and reverent all day long. The fact that you are exercising your freedoms is what they would want to know you were doing.
Perhaps though, during the picnic, barbecue or some time during the day, you could toast them with a beverage of choice and just say a simple "Thank you". It's more than they would expect and the very least that they deserve.
"It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived." ~ George S. Patton

What a fun weekend!
This weekend was the student championships, at UK Bike Park in sunny Dorset. I trundled down in my van on Saturday morning in brilliant sunshine, it seemed more like summer.
This weekend was the student championships, at UK Bike Park in sunny Dorset. I trundled down in my van on Saturday morning in brilliant sunshine, it seemed more like summer.
Saturday I put in a few practice laps. The course was based on the side of a super steep hill. There was a flattish single track section at the beginning of the lap before climbing up the 4x track. Then there was the most amazing descent, a few fast berms and table tops before traversing a short rock garden and a bed of roots. It then switched right and down the hill through a series of super steep switch backs. Then we rode around the base of the hill and back up a hellishly steep climb to the arena. The lap was fairly short, only 20minutes for me, but it meant more fun descents and more heckling from the crowd on race day!
Saturday afternoon I watched the DH championships and soaked up the atmosphere, before watching a bit of the floodlit 4x racing in the evening. Then it was off to bed in order to be fresh for the race, although that is easier said than done with a field full of partying students!
On race day the sun was still shining. The XC sport race took place in the morning and I started at 1 o'clock in the championship race, time to put on the colour car crash that is my uni kit! It was extra bad this year, red bike, yellow kit, green and white helmet and pink glasses!!
The start was ok. I managed to be around the top 15 going into the single track. The descent was a little crowded the first lap but after the climb back to the finish it thinned out a bit. The first lap reminded me why I don't race XC anymore! After that I settled into a good rhythm and hoped that every one else would blow, knowing that I would stay consistent. The next laps I made every effort to style it up over the jumps to please the crowd. At some points on the descents the noise was deafening, such a great atmosphere.
I finished 10th. Fairly pleased as it was what I was aiming for, but defiantly worth doing for the atmosphere alone.
A few easy days are called for now. I forgot how brutal XC is on the body. Next weekend it's some more road racing.
Keep an eye out for my race report on the Mtb websites soon as well.

Ellis, Mejia among top prospect performers Wednesday
Chris Ellis spun six no-hit innings, but an elevated pitch count prompted Triple-A Gwinnett to turn to the bullpen.
Despite the effort from the 23-year-old, Gwinnett lost 2-1 to Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Wednesday night as the International League Finals evened up at a game each.
Chris Ellis spun six no-hit innings, but an elevated pitch count prompted Triple-A Gwinnett to turn to the bullpen.
Despite the effort from the 23-year-old, Gwinnett lost 2-1 to Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Wednesday night as the International League Finals evened up at a game each.
Ellis, the Braves' No. 16 prospect, lost each of his final three starts of the regular season, but he has been nearly unhittable in the postseason.
Ellis threw just 54 of his 104 pitches for strikes, but he struck out five in six scoreless frames. In his first start of the playoffs, the right-hander gave up just three hits in seven scoreless innings.
"My fastball command was kind of hit or miss, so I had to rely on some breaking stuff," Ellis told MiLB.com. "I had a couple nice plays behind me, so I was kind of just relying on my defense, relying on pitching inside and getting some weak contact."
Six no-hit innings are always impressive, but even moreso when Ellis' history is considered. The Braves prospect had struggled against Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in the past, giving up 13 runs on 11 hits in four innings over his prior two starts against the team.
The rest of the best performances from top prospects Wednesday:
• Padres prospects Manuel Margot (Padres' No. 2, No. 27 overall) and Carlos Asuaje (Padres' No. 20) led the way offensively as Triple-A El Paso topped Oklahoma City and took a 2-0 lead in the Pacific Coast League Finals. Margot, who finished 3-for-5 with an RBI, tripled and scored in the first to jump-start the scoring. Meanwhile, Asuaje joined the party a little later with a solo homer in the fifth and a sacrifice fly in the sixth. Asuaje finished 2-for-3 with two RBIs.
• Francisco Mejia (Indians' No. 4, No. 88 overall) provided all of Class A Advanced Lynchburg's offense, but it was not enough as his club fell to Myrtle Beach in the Carolina League championship. Mejia doubled in the first and homered in the third, finishing a strong season with a 2-for-4, three-RBI night.
• Richie Martin (Athletics' No. 6) isn't known for his power, (three homers in 91 games during the regular season) but the 21-year-old shortstop flashed some pop in Game 2 of the Texas League Finals. Martin hit a solo blast and also added a sac fly as part of a 1-for-3, two-RBI night.
• Yairo Munoz (Athletics' No. 7) went 2-for-5 as Double-A Midland took a 2-0 lead in the Texas League Finals. Munoz drove in a run with an RBI single in the fifth and has three RBIs through the first two games of the series.
• Donnie Dewees (Cubs' No. 11) scored the go-ahead run in Class A Advanced Myrtle Beach's title-clinching win. Dewees went 3-for-5 in the game, capping a playoff run in which he hit .423 with hits in five of six games.
• Kyle Farmer (Dodgers' No. 24) put together another multi-hit game for Triple-A Oklahoma City. In Game 2 of the series (El Paso leads 2-0), Farmer went 3-for-5 with an RBI. Farmer has hits in all six playoff games he's played in and has at least two hits in four of the games.
• Rob Kaminsky (Indians' No. 17) led Double-A Akron to a commanding 2-0 series lead with 6 2/3 solid innings in Game 2 of the Eastern League Finals. Kaminsky was knocked around a bit in his semifinals start, but he commanded the zone well in the finals. The lefty fired 68 of his 99 pitches for strikes, fanning eight and giving up two earned runs on seven hits.
• Nellie Rodriguez (Indians' No. 24) gave Kaminsky some run support, going 1-for-3 with two RBIs in Akron's 4-2 win over Trenton. Rodriguez, a first baseman, played in 132 games for the RubberDucks this season, hitting .250 and collecting 85 RBIs.
• Luis Liberato (Mariners' No. 19) put together a three-hit night a Class A Clinton jumped out to a 1-0 series lead in the Midwest League Finals. After hitting .258 in 100 games during the regular season, the 20-year-old hit a pair of doubles and went 3-for-5 with an RBI in Game 1.
• Ryan O'Hearn (Royals' No. 8) put together eight three-hit games during the regular season and added another in Game 2 of the Texas League Finals. The left fielder went 3-for-4 with an RBI in Double-A Arkansas' loss.
• Billy McKinney (Yankees' No. 15) continues to hit well, but it has not been enough as Double-A Trenton finds itself on the brink of elimination in the Eastern League Finals after another loss. McKinney went 2-for-4 with a double and a triple and is now hitting .500 (10-for-20) in the postseason.

A bookworm's way of learning Korean
I'm starting to develop this love hate relationship with this person i'm language exchanging with (an actual person from Korea, not that bear above in a hanbok). No. Not the 애인 love hate. It's more like the dreaded hate that you get when you have to meet up with your teacher for a one on one lesson every week. Focus. Upright seriousness. Straight to the book. Then there was tonight's skype session. My liking for the guy has shot up for what he has done with me.
See, he comes across as a bookworm to me. From his voice, down to what he says when he gives his sample sentences and just everything thus this far points to it. I'm going to say it, even if i sound rude, immature and/or ungrateful. He comes across as quite a boring guy. However, despite his lack of a huge personality i think he passed down a method of his for language learning tonight. It made me open my eyes towards him for what he has done to have attained the level of English he is at (he's pretty advanced). It's beyond my imagination on what i thought i could do. So in sync with his bookworm persona of course, this method consists of....
Memorising the whole entire reading for one of the chapters from Yonsei Reading 2.
How. on. Earth. is. that. possible?
This mean remembering words to words, sentences after sentences... PARAGRAPHS of Korean writing. How is that even possible right? i'm barely at an intermediate level. I'm lucky if i remember one of the crucial sentences structures that i haven't came across before~
Lucky for me, this weeks reading was rather easy compared to the previous weeks reading. Nonetheless. Remembering it all? i know he's good at it, but for me? 좀 어러워요...
Then i remembered, back in my Chinese school days, ages ago, and not for that long of a period. I use to memorise and learn like this in the classroom. I guess, with that in mind, i went along with it. Maybe, it really is the way to learning another language.
Surprisingly though, i can remember more than i thought i ever could with the Yonsei reading. I struggled hard of course, but the guy doesn't give up. It really does help, having this language exchange partner leaving me little choice but to try harder each time i fail. I mean, if he hasn't given up on your ability, how can you give up on your own ability, right in front of him? (metaphorically speaking - he wasn't exactly in front of me) Thinking about it now, in his presence i don't even think of giving up. It's doesn't cross my mind. I just give it my best shot and at least give things a try because his there ready to push me, if i start to slack of. That's how effective this guy is to me.
Up until now, i had little regards for him, in the same way that you kind of just don't think that highly of your teacher. I mean that in the sense that you don't necessarily think of the teacher as your role model/hero because when you're at the learning end, and all you can think about is what they're putting you through. Like a sulky student ignorant of what's good for you.
But, tonight i can see that - like a teacher - he is quite an inspiring guy who's helping me to learn beyond what i'm able to comprehend and appreciate every aspect of. Respect for a bookworms. lol 미안해요 exchange partner for calling you a bookworm!
Anyways, this post might come across at an unbalanced exchange of language but it really is a lengthy piece of writing already. I just wanted to capture my learning end of our experienced as to the whole entire picture of our exchange. Don't misunderstand. I'm an awesome teacher too ^^ hahaha
I hope this post serves as a don't give up and hang in there with your language learning. You're able to remember more than you realise if you just push yourself. In my case, i have an exchange partner that helps me push myself because i'm lazy/lucky.
Side notes: Memorising words to words like a bookworm might seem tedious but i think you start to grasp the overall text a little better, as you have to remember the order of what happens, in order to, bring yourself to verbalise each sentence out loud, from memory. Everything starts to fall in place. This is exactly what i'm in need of at my level of learning. I owe it to him for showing me me a method i probably would never consider on my own.
Anyways after all that has been said and done, i'm curious what level of dread i'm going to feel towards our Wednesday night language exchange session with him from now on prior to the actual exchange on the night. He expect me to recite the whole text on my own to him next Wednesday...
PS anyone thinks my photography skills are getting better? lol
My friend got me that hanbok bear keyring when she went to Korea. Hopefully i can take it back to it's country one day for a visit.

Save money, Go green, Be healthier
My two passions in life are Real Estate Investing and Saving Money.
The following makes your indoor living more breathable, less toxic, less cluttered, more cost effective, more welcoming and 'user friendly'.
My first suggestion for an environmental sound residential house can be applied to any building whether home, workplace, recreational, shopping, entertainment, etc. Cleaning: in our haste to be clean we buy products that contain chemicals, although there is a new trend to use 'green products' how green are these products – have you considered where the ingredients came from (transportation)? What is the packaging made of(& transportation)? How was the product made, how did they dispose of the garbage or excess materials? What happens to the garbage/excess materials when it has been removed from the manufacturers plant? What other products are produced by this company that is selling the 'green product', are they cashing in on the trend or are they sincere in their concerns for the environment?
What is the alternative and still be clean? My favorite cleaning technique STEAM, it cleans everything, I also used baking soda, vinegar, lemons & lemon juice, salt, olive oil and elbow grease. Yes, there is transportation involved, but it is minimized, and that's the goal, to affect the environment as little as possible.
So how does this effect our individual health? In many, many ways; We breathe the chemicals, we build up these chemicals in our body and we reach the limit were these chemicals effect our health, we go to the Dr for relief of the health problems, the Dr will prescribe medications the counter-act our symptoms, sometimes the medications cause side-affects which means we need more medications, just because we wanted convenience in our life. How convenient are the cleaning products now? Don't forget the damage caused by dry cleaning.
My second suggestion, disposal of no longer required household items and clothing.
– Swap shops
– Charities
– Church Spring/Fall Fairs
– Advertise on university or college notice boards
– Re-purpose into modern art, or other useful household items, you've all seen the old boots made into plant pots, plastic pop bottles into bird feeders.
Manufacturers have caught onto this idea they now produce items that look like old boots or pop bottles.
– Garage sales
– Schools could use your old books, crafts, sports equipment.
– Neighbors could maybe use it.
– Furniture re-use centers
– Re-use-it stores (i.e. Habitat for Humanity, Salvation Army, Red Door).
– Use on camping tips
Thirdly, this one is my personal favorite, and is actually connected to my second suggestion, make your own gifts for birthdays, showers, anniversaries, Christmas, Hanukah, graduation. How does this effect the environment? And save money?
You already have the products at home or are easily obtained, you do not have to travel to the store, spend money on products that are not environmentally friendly (see suggestion #1).
Make your own candy, decorations, modern art, wind chimes, votive candle holders, frame your childs' art for grandma, old wool clothing can be unwound and knitted into something else, if you don't know how to knit – learn, or donate to somebody that can. Old wool clothing or blankets can be made into felt material by putting into the dryer and dry under 'high'.
It is a lot easier these days to save money, 'go green' and live life healthier and to the fullest, with the internet available for ideas.
