Carla and Dave came to visit us for the second part of Christmas break.
Carla is ABD in music ed at IU, and Dave is ABD in composition.
I have lots to tell you about their trip to London. It was mundane, but also exciting. We went touristing, but we also sat at home and did nothing. We made awesome food, and we also ended up at Swiss Chalet. It was kind of a strange, but great week. I'll probably separate these posts because I want to include as many pictures as possible.
We started by going to Covent Garden Market, the indoor, year round farmer's market that has ice skating in front of it.
Then we went to lunch at Barakat, this amazing Mediterranean place on Richmond.
It didn't snow much at all in London before Christmas - no more than an inch or so. But as Dave and Carla pulled into town the skies really opened up. It snowed at least somewhat every day they were here, and it continues to snow.
As I said, a few things didn't go as planned. We wanted to cook at home on New Year's Eve, but we needed groceries and every grocery store - even Wal-Mart - was closed by 5pm. So instead we went to the Alibi, a bar/restaurant that other music research grad students frequent.
They were playing a junior hockey league tournament game, between the U.S. and Canada. All in all, a very Canadian New Years. I'll write more installments about their trip, hockey, and mounds of cupcakes soon.

In Copenhagen, a supermarket offers unsold provisions from major stores
In order to fight against food waste, Danish supermarket WeFood buys unsold stock from major supermarkets and offers them to responsible customers.
According to the United Nations Organisation for food and agriculture, a third of food produced worldwide is thrown in the bin.
In Denmark, initiatives have emerged to counter this waste, including the example of WeFood, which sells unsold stocks from major supermarkets at reduced prices. The customers targeted are not the poor, but rather consumers who are committed to the environment.
Unlike other social food brands such as Daily Table, WeFood operates on a charitable basis, with the profits donated to the fight against poverty around the world.
The opening of WeFood echoes the current priorities of Eva Kjer Hansen, the Danish minister for food and the environment, and Princess Marie was present on the day of the inauguration. The products sold are, for the for the most part, past their sell-by date, but the supermarket guarantees that it conforms to food safety standards.

Lose Belly Fat with Tummy Tuck
Plastic Surgery Procedures are performing every day in World. Women and men choose to have some part of their anatomy that they are unhappy with altering. If you are not pleased with some area of your body, and diet or exercise will not change or improve that area, then Plastic Surgery may be a viable solution. One of the most popular procedure is Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty). If you want to gain or lose belly fat, or go through pregnancy and childbirth, the skin on our abdomen may become stretch, and our abdominal muscles may become weak. Unfortunately, the skin doesn't always revert to the shape it was in prior to these occurrences. When that happens no amount of sit-ups will bring back a tight, flat tummy.
One of the most popular procedure is the Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty). A Tummy Tuck is an excellent method to eliminate excess sagging skin and to obtain a flatter, tighter tummy or to lose belly fat. It is also a procedure with results that can give a boost your self-esteem and self-confidence. Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) procedure is not designed to remove significant amounts of fat. Your Plastic Surgeon will want a complete medical history and will give you an examination to determine your current health and examine that whether a Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) is will benefit you or not.
A Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) is an excellent way to eliminate excess sagging skin, and to obtain a flatter, tighter tummy. Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) is a safe and effective procedure that will let you feel comfortable in stylish clothing and swimwear. You will no longer have to hide your tummy under baggy clothes and avoid the pool or the beach. A Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) is that and more; it is also a procedure with results that can boost your self-esteem and self-confidence. Most people feel good when they take positive action to improve something about them. When we feel as if we look good, then we often feel good emotionally.

The Center for the Arts, University at Buffalo, welcomes The Temptations and The Four Tops on Sunday, Nov. 20, at 7:30 p.m. in the Mainstage Theatre, located on the North Campus.
For half a century, The Temptations and The Four Tops have been essential to the Motown hit-making machine that has helped define contemporary American pop music. Having sold tens of millions of records throughout their careers, the Grammy-winning and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees frequently tour the country in a continuation of their legacy.
The Temptations scored its first No. 1 hit with "My Girl" and never looked back. Songs such as "I'm Gonna Make You Love Me," "I Can't Get Next To You," "Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me)" and "Papa Was a Rollin' Stone" still resonate today. The band's career has outlasted many of its contemporaries and protégés - as bandleader Otis Williams says, "Great singing will always prevail."
The Four Tops began its career with the smash No. 1 hit "I Can't Help Myself (Sugar Pie Honey Bunch)" and continued with an amazing string of successes, including "It's The Same Old Song," "Reach Out I'll Be There," "Ain't No Woman (Like The One I've Got)" and "Baby I Need Your Loving."
Proceeds from the concert will benefit the Ronald McDonald House of Buffalo
This concert is presented by The Derico of East Amherst Corporation and its employees, a locally owned 15 outlet McDonald's organization. Concert proceeds benefit the families of the Ronald McDonald House of Buffalo. Since opening its doors to families of seriously ill or injured children more than 25 years ago, the Ronald McDonald House of Buffalo has provided comfortable, affordable lodging for 17,000 families from Western New York and around the world. The Ronald McDonald House is a family's "home-away-from-home" when their child requires specialized medical care at a Buffalo hospital.
Tickets for The Temptations and The Four Tops are $69.50, $59.50 and $49.50, and are available at the Center Box Office and all Ticketmaster locations, including www.Ticketmaster.com. To charge tickets, call 1-800-745-3000 (in Canada 416-870-8000). For more information, call 716-645-2787.

Beautiful. Soul. Paul Walker
One of the most beautiful men ever
God made a rare beauty and treasure when He made you Eyes that made you feel like you were swimming in the most beautiful ocean
A smile so beautiful it literally lit you up A voice that could melt your being A face, with all its imperfections that was just……perfectly perfect
A heart that truly was rarely beautiful
A soul that 'reached out' and deeply touched our souls. A man …as man… ought to be
God…. God was happy when He made you
and we…. were so blessed to have seen or known you in whatever way we did
I'll miss you sorely
Rest in peace Roger Rodas
you must have been a beautiful soul too
My prayers to both families who have lost precious ones
I pray Father comforts you as only He can
It will never really make sense to me I don't think
my mind will never truly comprehend this-that you're not here anymore
the only thing that makes me know it's real are the tears that pour out when I see a photo of you
strange as it may sound, you were such a huge and integral part of my life
such a huge part of me..couldn't ever explain it not even to myself
but you were
and I think your fans, like me, feel the same and understand it even if we don't really
I mourn and I mourn for your family
oh 😥
Love you forever Paul Walker
You're free to soar now
You are free
See you in heaven
You can walk with Father in all of heaven's beauty now
Rest with Father

Wedding Hair
October 31, 2010
At the wedding, I was given the task of doing hair for a 6 year old and a 9 year old. Their mom went back to her hotel room to get things done while I brushed and braided and talked with the girls.
I have always had a daydream of being a hairdresser. Or a manicurist. A taxi driver or a bar tender. Some job that has historically functioned as a proxy therapist in our culture. It turns out, the 9 year old wants to be a hair dresser too. As I was waxing urgent that maybe I really needed to give up my social work gig and become a hairdresser, my friend, who hates puppies and babies said, "Maybe you just need to have kids."
And I thought about when I was little girl and people would brush my hair and comment on how thick it was, or how brown, or how it was just like my dad's. The girls' hair was so thin and wispy, light brown. I asked the 6 year old what side she wanted her hair parted on and she said, "I don't know," and I said, "Of course you don't know; you're only 6!"
Their hair was wet and tangled, like they hadn't used conditioner. I wondered what kind of mother doesn't tell their kids to use conditioner. We didn't have a comb, so I had to use a brush. I grabbed chunks of their hair at the base, like I remember people did to me, and raked their heads with the brush. I said, "If I hurt you . . . don't tell me," And got some laughs from the adults in the room. The girls were very easy-going kids, neither even said ouch once and I told them how tough they were. When I complimented their mom on their toughness, I hoped she couldn't tell I had wondered why their hair was so tangled in the first place.
Mothers tell me they feel judged a lot. And women in general, women who don't know one another, have a habit of saying something with the best intentions, then worrying if what they said was taken the wrong way, while the other woman receives the thing with the best of perceptions and then wonders how she shouldve taken it. Or maybe that's just me.
Eventually, the girls' hair laid flat against their shoulders and straight down their small backs, in a brief sheet of dry softness. The soft, brief hair of small girls.
And why wasn't their mom doing their hair herself? Brushing their hair felt so intimate. I especially felt self-conscious once their mother came back into the room. I couldn't believe another woman was letting me touch her daughter's hair. Then I reminded myself that, after awhile, it seems like parents get used to their kids and time spent away from them can be more of a treasure than time spent with them. She thanked me for doing their hair. I don't know if she was grateful for having time away or grateful that she avoided a small family feud by at least getting their hair "done" at all. The girls' grandmother was ready to pony up big bucks and my services were offered as a consolation.
Point being, I really want a child. A girl one. And the other point is that there are so many things I haven't even thought of when it comes to how wonderful it will be to have a girl, like being in a room with three generations of women from two sides of different families, eating fruit, tying bows and doing hair before a wedding.

'The soft, brief hair of little girls.' Lovely. The only thing I can't help thinking, having a boy and a girl myself, who have both surprised me in different ways, is that one never knows. I do not mean in any way to chide you for your sentiment. Only to protect you.

if i hurt you, don't tell me.
that is too cute.
November 4, 2010 at 6:54 PM
Eliza screams when I do her hair. Like I'm pulling it out by the roots. She rolls on the floor and wails and cries and holds her breath….and then lets out a huge scream. Same for her nanny and for Howie. Recently she's letting me do it while she watches Elmo. But mostly she still fusses and tries to pull the pony tails out. Then the other day she came home with this pony tail in her hair. Very high on her head and so cute. Apparently, there is one other nanny in the park that Eliza allows to do her hair. Not her nanny, her mother, or her father, but some other nanny she knows from the park.

Mis-Communicator of the Week: Persil
24th September 2013
Rebuttal and correction of mis-information about your company, organisation or brand is an essential part of modern communication. With the rise of social media as a primary source of information, the saying attributed to Mark Twain, that a lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes has never been more true. The mantra of "speed kills" should drive your efforts but always be sure of your facts first.
That is where this week's Mis-Communicator of the Week went wrong; they attempted to correct something which wasn't wrong and ended up with egg on their face.
Ever since I was a boy I remember the Fairy washing liquid adverts illustrating how their product would last up to "50 per cent longer" than rival brands. Some of their adverts in the 1980s, including the one with actress Nanette Newman showing off the number of extra plates families could wash up with their bottles, were iconic and influential. Do you remember the jingle, "Now hands that do dishes can feel as soft as your face, with mild green Fairy Liquid"?
Fairy's nearest rival, Persil, decided to challenge the claims made on TV and digital billboard ads and complained to the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA). The ASA rightly decided that they weren't qualified to rule on something like this so they called in the consumer champions Which? for help. The result being that one 433ml bottle of Fairy Liquid — in a 2012 review by Which? magazine - was found to wash the equivalent of 4,292 plates but the reviewers needed two 500ml bottles of Persil to wash the same number.
So, Persil's complaint backfired and this ruling by the ASA has subsequently been covered in every major newspaper as a form of free advertising or PR worth millions. Lucky old Fairy. This only came about because Persil were too quick to rebut a claim which was true and, one assumes, without checking all their facts with their product development and R&D teams. A lesson for all of us that it is right to keep competition clean but only if you are sure of your own facts. That is why Persil are my Mis-Communicators of the Week.
Communicator of the Week is written by Edward Staite

Michigan Bay Paranormal Team
Click here to edit subtitle
With every reputable paranormal team comes a variety of equipment. Paranormal equipment is used to officially document evidence of a paranormal occurrence. Without evidence, using the aid of this equipment, we cannot help back up claims that others have had of paranormal occurrences in a specified location. Along with backing up claims of the paranormal, this equipment can also be used to debunk paranormal claims as being naturally occurring phenomena, other than something paranormal, in a location. As a scientific-based paranormal investigation team, this equipment is no different to us than laboratory equipment is to a chemist. Below is a list of the equipment MBPT utilizes on investigations, along with an explanation as to how each of them help us gather evidence.
Camcorders are essential to have on a paranormal investigation, in order to officially document any and all visual evidence and/ or experiences you may have throughout the investigation. Camcorders must also be compatible with infrared (IR) lights, because many entities travel in the infrared spectrum, which is the reason they cannot be seen with the human eye. Some investigators also use full spectrum lights which can see into not only the infrared spectrum, but into the ultraviolet spectrum as well. Not only are these lights useful for picking up on entities that may be hiding in these spectrums of light, but they are also useful for allowing the camcorder to see more clearly.

Is It Time You Had a Social Media Blackout?
Stop for a second and consider just how much technology, including the far reaching tentacles of social media, helps us on a day to day basis. We can stay in touch, navigate to our destinations and schedule our TV programmes to record, all at the press of a button. There is no doubt that the benefits can be huge.
Now stop and ask yourself this: how would it feel 'switching off' and taking a break from it all? Your answer may vary somewhere from hugely scary to one of complete relief.
I recently delivered a training session focusing on moving outside of our comfort zones and which I knew was going to require quite a bit of focus from the participants. We're all used to the usual mobile telephone shout-out at the beginning of such sessions – normally followed with varying degrees of compliance with more and more people wishing to use their devices as an alternative to pen and paper. For this session, I decided to ask participants not only to turn their phones off, but to put them out of arms reach, and the results were interesting. When we dissected the different feelings in the room, some were mildly to extremely relaxed from the break I had offered them however the majority of people in the room felt anxious. One person went as far as to say it felt like their "third hand had been cut off!" Just this one simple exercise of removing ourselves from the ever-present mini tablet in our pockets or handbags got us thinking, and we began to consider the impact technology was having in our day to day lives.
I wonder if your responses would be similar to my own personal light bulb moments:
- Using your phone for the majority of interactions other than simply talking to people face to face…phonecalls (of course they're still good for those from time to time!), texts and emails, messaging Apps, social media (Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Hootsuite, YouTube…the list goes on).
- Sacrificing precious holiday time simply keeping up-to-date with what you're missing from the beach or putting in hours of catch-up time to bring yourself back up to speed when you get back home.
- Your phone being the last and first thing you look at before going to sleep – just by using mine as my alarm clock qualifies this however once I picked it up to set the alarm or switch it off meant that first or last check of what was going on in the big wide world!
- When you have finally put the phone down to rest for the night, it's on the bedside table where it can buzz and light up at will, demanding our attention even as we drift off to the land of nod.
- Checking in with social media and news sites multiple times an hour, let alone a day…and having a direct impact on your mood and outlook thereafter; not always for the worst but not always for the better.
…and that's just scratching the surface. Games on your phone anyone? My favourite is Yahtzee With Buddies.
So I decided to impose a one week embargo…not on all things technology – baby steps! I decided to start out with social media (that is where I felt I wasted much of my time unnecessarily and which impacted my state of mind the most).
And do you know what – it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be! In fact, the break was great and freed me up to focus my energy and attention elsewhere. I was surprised by how many phone calls and texts I received that week, asking if I was alright or if I had been kicked out of the Facebook club for misbehaving! I realised that the world would continue turning if I didn't check in to see the latest news disaster, the cutest dog photos or what my friends were going to see at the cinema.
Yes, I have returned to the fold, but with one significant change: I limit the amount of time I spend being 'social' with my gadgets and I'm certainly no longer concerned about what I miss or don't see. I think if it's important enough for me to know someone will tell me anyway.
So I challenge you to at least consider: is it about time you took a break too?

Jury hears that Butcher appeared 'calm' after alleged killing, hand amputation
Aly Thomson, The Canadian Press
Published Wednesday, April 11, 2018 10:43AM ADT
Last Updated Thursday, April 12, 2018 7:58AM ADT
HALIFAX -- Accused killer Nicholas Butcher appeared "calm" as paramedics treated him the morning Kristin Johnston was found dead, despite having an amputated hand and 13 penetrating wounds on his neck, a Halifax jury heard Wednesday.
Paramedic Sean Collins testified at Butcher's second-degree murder trial that he rode with Butcher, 35, in the back of an ambulance en route to hospital from the Montreal-born yoga instructor's Halifax-area home on March 26, 2016.
Collins said Butcher appeared "upset, but calm," noting there were lacerations on his neck and on the wrist of his remaining hand.
"He kept asking to call his mom," said Collins.
At the hospital, Butcher was taken to an operating room, the 14-member Nova Scotia Supreme Court jury heard.
Dr. Jonathan Trites, a head and neck surgeon, said Butcher had 13 sharp wounds on his neck: Seven in the centre, and three each on the left and right sides of his upper neck. He said none were longer than three centimetres.
Trites agreed with defence lawyer Peter Planetta that if left untreated, the neck injuries would have been potentially life-threatening.
He noted an injury to Butcher's trachea went in at a steep angle, not straight in.
The jury heard earlier this week that Butcher told a 911 dispatcher he had killed his girlfriend and tried to kill himself.
Another paramedic, Sarah Grace Brown, described Butcher as appearing "relatively calm" after she arrived on the scene in Purcells Cove.
Brown said she was tasked with retrieving his hand, so she went to the house and asked police for it.
She said an officer argued it was part of the crime scene, but she reiterated she needed it, so the officer went and retrieved it for her.
Brown said she brought it to the ambulance, shielding it from members of the public who had started to gather outside the home.
She wrapped it in sterile gauze and then put it into a sterile bag.
Police officers have testified they found Johnston's body in the master bedroom of the home on a blood-soaked bed, next to a steak knife.
They testified that a mitre saw and an amputated hand were found nearby.
Butcher has pleaded not guilty.
Witnesses have testified that Butcher was living with Johnston, 32, at the time of her death, and that she had broken up with him hours earlier.
Harry Lehmann, who lived in a basement unit of Johnston's house, testified he woke up around 4:30 a.m., and heard "shoes coming off" upstairs just after 5 a.m. He made an assumption that Johnston and Butcher had just arrived home.
"And then it was quiet after that," said the 57-year-old Winnipeg man, who was staying in Halifax for a few months at the time of Johnston's death.
Lehmann says around 7 a.m. he decided to do laundry in their shared laundry and storage room.
About a half hour later, he heard someone coming down the stairwell and then rummaging in the storage room before hearing something dragging along the floor. He likened the sound to the prongs of a cord.
About five minutes later, he heard a "humming, mechanical" noise. He thought it sounded like a microwave.
Soon after that, he heard sirens, and then someone coming down the stairwell to his apartment. It was a police officer, who detained him.
He was released after being questioned by police, and said he learned of Johnston's death on the news.
The trial continues Thursday with more testimony from Crown witnesses.

Normally, when you upload multiple documents to a SharePoint document library, form library, or picture library, the files will remain checked-out unless you manually check in each file individually. This can be a time consuming task, especially if you are checking in several hundred documents at once. SharePoint Batch Check In solves this problem by allowing you to bulk check in a group of checked-out files all at one time, as well as upload & simultaneously check in multiple new documents. Three different check-in settings give you full control over how SharePoint handles your documents:
1. Bulk check in a group of checked-out files all at one time
2. Upload and simultaneously check in multiple new documents
3. Automatically update column values for all the documents as they are checked in

Abstract : Si-SiO x nanoparticles NPs produced by laser ablation in deionized water or aqueous biocompatible solutions present a novel extremely promising object for biomedical applications, but the interaction of these NPs with biological systems has not yet been systematically examined. Here, we present the first comprehensive study of biodistribution, biodegradability and toxicity of laser-synthesized Si-SiO x nanoparticles using a small animal model. Despite a relatively high dose of Si-NPs 20 mg-kg administered intravenously in mice, all controlled parameters serum, enzymatic, histological etc. were found to be within safe limits 3 h, 24 h, 48 h and 7 days after the administration. We also determined that the nanoparticles are rapidly sequestered by the liver and spleen, then further biodegraded and directly eliminated in urine without any toxicity effects. Finally, we found that intracellular accumulation of Si-NPs does not induce any oxidative stress damage. Our results evidence a huge potential in using these safe and biodegradable NPs in biomedical applications, in particular as vectors, contrast agents and sensitizers in cancer therapy and diagnostics theranostics.

Popping my Star Wars cherry: Attack of Clones is better than Empire
Anakin Skywalker is far less boring than Luke but could really do without the 'rapey-eyes'.hollywood Updated: Dec 24, 2015 17:11 IST
Star Wars: The Force Awakens released on December 18 everywhere in the world but China and India (you can thank Dilwale and Bajirao for that). While the rest of humanity is frothing at the mouth with excitement, we are here waiting for Christmas (it releases here on December 25). But hold on, we have something you can chew on meanwhile.
I have watched more movies than there are stars in the sky and I feel not a sliver of humility in making such a proclamation. However, I still have not watched some really big ones (incredibly ashamed as I make this confession) like the $4.6bn Star Wars space saga- a colossus of entertainment that so many works after it have stood upon to reach for their own heights.
Star Wars made me feel alienated. It hurts when you see online rants and understand none of them. Obsessives would fight over which lightsaber is the best as I would stand there waiting for the conversation to move to Harry Potter instead.
But no more! I will not endure another decade of cluelessness as others around me bask in the glory of the new Star Wars movie. I will try to be one of them. I will join the Force.
In a span of six days I will watch the six movies in the order of their original release and share my thoughts on them. There are a lot of different opinions on how one should watch the series but I feel it is best to follow the original sequence as time intended. Here is what I thought about Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones.
Read: What I thought about A New Hope
Read: What I thought about Empire Strikes Back
Read: What I thought about Return of the Jedi
Read: What I thought about The Phantom Menace
A few days ago, one 'hurt' Star Wars fan, miffed with my utter lack of devotion to the space saga, posted a tweet to vent his scorn and disgust for me: 'Try the prequels, you'll like them'. Make no mistake, this was no innocent suggestion. Because only two tweets ago he suggested I should limit myself to Dilwale and the likes for that is what I am 'capable of enjoying'. Clearly, he doesn't think very highly of me or my choice in movies.
Well, dear friend, if you are reading this, you're right. I liked Attack of the Clones. What on earth is wrong with me?
Characters/plot: Iconic or moronic
Why don't people like the prequels? My few complaints would be the creepy romantic angle between Padme and Anakin, and well, of course, Jar Jar Binks (who thankfully got way less screen time than he had in The Phantom Menace and perhaps also the USP of this movie). But for these two, I enjoyed everything.
I watched this movie after a crushing day at work, at 2am and was expecting to fall asleep halfway through it. I didn't, surprisingly. The two parallel plots were interesting and full of action.
Anakin Skywalker is far less boring than Luke but could really do without the 'rapey-eyes'. His mind is convoluted and very clearly edging towards the Dark side and the struggle to choose between the two is apparent. With Luke all could I think was: 'There goes the mighty noob, another day to be a hero. Fight some Stormtroopers and then chill at the crib with his homies Leia and Han.'
Anakin, however, is fighting the thoughts on whether to follow Obi-Wan who he thinks is jealous of him, and the urge to break the rules of the Jedi for his love for Padme (whom he thought about everyday for 10 years ... creepy, no?).
Padme too redeems herself as she engages in some action here. Yes, she did need Obi-Wan and Anakin to protect her in the beginning, but after that, she didn't really need any saving. Instead, she helped Anakin go to his mother's aid by not being a 'burden' on him. She even made him realise that they should save Obi-Wan (how convenient of shady-boy Anakin to finally think about following orders when his master's life is in danger).
If only they didn't have those cringe-worthy 'romantic' scenes and tortured me with stupid dialogues like these:
From the moment I met you... all those years ago... not a day has gone by when I haven't thought of you. And now that I'm with you again I'm in agony. The closer I get to you, the worse it gets. The thought of not being with you, I can't breathe. I'm haunted by the kiss that you should never have given me. My heart is beating... hoping that that kiss will not become a scar. You are in my very soul, tormenting me.
Spoken like a true creep.
One of the good things about the movie was the plot with Obi-Wan Kenobi where he goes on an adventure on his own to find the bounty hunter who wanted to kill Padme. He finds Jango Fett in a clone factory, living with his non-biological son (Boba Fett, yay!) and that factory was scary. The big sea of cheap looking Stormtroopers made for a good scene to establish the scale at which things are happening.
Some scenes deserve special mention because they were pretty good like the one in the beginning where Anakin and Obi-Wan chase after the assassin and Anakin jumps off the pod for lulz. Another good one was the fight in rain between Boba Fett and Obi-Wan and of course the entire climax where Padme, Anakin and Obi-Wan are tied to pillars and served hot for three massive monsters, followed by the fight between the Jedis and Count Dooku's droids.
However, what takes the cake was the duel between Yoda and Dooku. Turns out Yoda is badass as hell. That little green dude is a saber-slinger par excellence and only pretends to use the stick to 'help him walk'. Even Dooku seemed invincible. He disarmed Obi-Wan and Anakin (literally dis-armed, huehuehue) in a matter of seconds and what's more amazing is that even Yoda could not defeat him.
Were any 'Forces' awakened?
Yes, slowly and steadily, I am feeling the Force in me. As we are getting closer to the seventh chapter and as I am watching more and more movies, I feel myself getting excited for all things Star Wars. I am all up for discussions, debates and fights at the workplace and online and played with a colleague's Darth Maul figure way longer than I would like to reveal. The thing about being a part of the fandom is that it is collective thing. You cannot be in isolation.
One more movie to go and then The Force Awakens!
Next up: What I thought about Revenge of the Sith

He conferred with a sergeant before coming to the old man kneeling in the soft earth.
Prang spoke in badly-accented Italian. "Signore MonzIello, it has been said 'in vino veritas'. I hope for the sake of your family this is so. Tell me of the partisans hiding in these hills."
The old man nodded to Prang to come closer. As Prang did, he spat in the officer's face, glaring defiantly.
Prang's voice was cold as he walked away. "Burn these damned vines to ashes Sergeant."

Staff Spotlight: Laura DuranReleased by Panhandle State Campus Communications on 11/28/2017
A self-described "Jane of all Trades", Laura Duran is the Physical Plant Director at Panhandle State and she certainly gets the job done. Laura supervises the Maintenance, Custodial, and Grounds Crews as well as the Motor Pool. In addition, she monitors the school water wells and lagoon and works hand-in-hand with Johnson Controls, the University's heating and air contractor.
While that certainly sounds like a huge load and it is, Laura says, "My job is made easy because of my assistants and their staff."
She oversees over 25 staff members divided among the departments she supervises.
Laura took the Director position this July after working over 11 years on campus. She started in the maintenance department before moving to custodial services and prior to her current post she served as the Administrative Assistant to the Physical Plant Director.
No one day is like another for Laura aside from the fact they all generally start between 5 or 5:30 a.m. with office work to allow freedom to go "wherever I need to go" throughout the rest of the day depending on what arises.
Born in Dimmitt, Texas, Laura was raised in Stratford, Texas and graduated from high school there before attending college at Panhandle State.
Her favorite part of her job is the people she gets to work with and the new changes around campus. She is directly involved with all renovation projects and new construction on campus.
"I like the fast pace the changes bring with them and I multi-task."
"Ultimately, it's for the kids and making the steps to provide for them. I strive to do my best for the students."
Vice President of Fiscal Affairs Benny Dain is Laura's supervisor. He commented, "Laura is one of those people you look forward to seeing. She is serious about the campus and her role in moving the campus forward and still maintains that infectious smile of hers (most of the time) working side by side helping those around her to push through whatever the day brings. She understands that it is about the students and her commitment and energy are a real asset to us all at OPSU. I consider myself lucky for being on the same team with Laura."
Laura enjoys time with her family and has five grandkids.

FC – 22 Pages – $2.99
The tiny air force takes flight! Deep beneath the quarry, on the lowest sub-level of Basement Θ, Promethius X reveals his mad scheme, and the mystery of the stolen cows is finally solved.
After coming out of their trance in Sublevel 4, the party discovered that they had been wondering around for nearly four hours. Proceeding to Sublevel 5, the heroes discovered Promethius X and two strange Gold and Blue-clad soldiers standing in front of a huge sphere inside which a city and the surrounding countryside contained with in it, miniaturized. Candide explained that the city was called Mildendo, and it was the capital of Lilliput, a fragment of a destroyed Micro-Universe.
A fight broke out between the party and the two Lilliputian soldiers, whose-quantum containment suits made them formidable fighters; Promethius X meditated on top of the Sphere, calling forth reinforcements from Mildendo in the form of the Lilliputian airforce, enhanced with technology that allowed them to achieve a 1:64 scale integration with the outside universe. The party was able to dispatch the planes before they did any serious damage, though one of them used some sort of intoxicant missile on Brob.
Brob hurled a three-ton metal crate at the last three Bombers that emerged, but in the process also hit the Sphere, causing a fracture in the warp bubble. Fearing the destruction of Lilliput and the Basement, Candide convinced one of the soldiers to break off from the fight and help him put a temporary seal on the fracture until an actual quantum physicist could look at it.
The other Soldier grew erratic and furiously stabbed Redline, rendering him unconscious, but then Velocity waylaid Promethius X with a flurry of punches. With the psychic influence of the "Ape Lord" no longer clouding his doubts, the Soldier began to question his orders and the party was able to talk him down. The party and the soldier compared notes, realizing that Promethius X had been manipulating the Lilliputians with his psychic powers; he suppressed their doubts while spinning a yarn that the United Nations were planning to invade Lilliput and conquer it, and began preparing a Lilliputian invasion army of his own, though what X hoped to conquer with them is unclear.
After the rupture had been sealed and Velocity had run into town to get everyone some food, the party was debriefed by Celadon Cyclone, even as representatives of the New Guardsmen and DOJI appeared at Basement Θ in response to the security breach. The question remains to be decided: what to do with Promethius X?

Don't Take The Bait
Phishing is the name of a method which entices you to give up your personal or financial information to people or organizations masquerading as a legitimate source. The bait is the request from a source you are familiar with, but is in fact, a replication or a phony. Phishing attacks may occur to your personal account, or they may involve your medical organization. In any event, knowing how to recognize them and not take the bait is the key to preventing a successful phishing attack.
Phishing attacks try to obtain valuable information from you such as your:
- Credit card number
- Bank account number
- Social security number
- Online account logins and passwords
The pilfered information is used to steal your money or in the case of your organization, carry out identity theft or introduce malware into your information systems.
Phishing attacks are carried out primarily in two main ways. First, attackers use phishing emails which look very similar to what you normally see in your daily e-mails. Second, attackers use links to websites that look similar to other organizations, companies, and/or banks that you visit frequently. Phishing e-mails and websites have the following characteristics:
- They all ask for you to provide personal information. Most legitimate organizations, and including all banks, will not ask you to provide personal information whether it be your credit card number or your login password.
- There is usually a sense of urgency. The phishing emails request immediate action and they use this technique to get you to bite quickly. This is the same technique you see on TV ads for a product whereby your quick response for "acting right now", will get you a discount or a second item at half price. Or the e-mail will be emotional and pull at your "heart strings" in order to entice you to act.
- Most phishing emails have a generic "hello" for the greeting. The e-mail does not use your name since it is the same phishing e-mail sent to millions.
- The e-mails may contain attachments which are most likely malware and the moment you click on it, you invite malware (malicious code) into your system which will begin to destroy or copy your hard drive and its contents.
- The e-mails may also contain a phony link to a phony website. The link is masked so what you see looks correct, but the actual hyperlink is set up to go to the phony site. Hover your mouse over the link to see what is truly behind it.
- Many times, the e-mails contain poor grammar. Remember, hackers come at all levels with some that are very good at what they do, and others with poor writing skills.
- Legitimate websites use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) for protecting the information you enter into the site; look for https:// instead of http:// in the URL. The added "s" means the site is secured.
Phishing attacks have increased over the years as hackers have gotten smarter and more clever. However, there are preventive steps you or your staff can take to survive the attacks with little to no damage. Consider the following:
- Your IT department should consider installing robust spam filters which can identify these e-mails and send them to the spam folder instead.
- If the e-mail looks suspicious, don't trust it. Instead, pick up the phone and call the organization to determine if they sent the e-mail in question.
- If the link looks suspicious, don't click on it. Instead, manually type the organizations real URL into your browser and provide the information after you have confirmed it was the organization that contacted you.
- Your IT department should consider adopting a URL scanner which will check the authenticity of any website you visit.
- If your organization uses Internet Explorer, ask your IT department to turn on the SmartScreen filter which will help you discover if a website is a phishing site.
- Unlike your browser at home, your organization determines what browser you will use at work, and it is most likely a newer browser which is supported with patches by the manufacturer. Nonetheless, your IT department could consider installing a security toolbar to alert you when visiting known phishing sites.
While the above technical steps will help minimize the effects of a phishing attack or help avoid them altogether, the ultimate defense lies with the user or employees themselves. It is the human factor that contributes to the large cases of successful phishing attacks since employees are ultimately tricked to open the link and/or respond to the e-mail. However, the more your workforce is educated regarding phishing, the more likely they will recognize an attack when it occurs. Some organizations have conducted "phishing simulations" to determine how many individuals will fall prey to the fake phishing attack. Afterwards, those individuals are provided additional training. This can be a great way to provide training and practice recognizing phishing attacks, but organizations need to make sure no punitive action is taken. Instead, consider an organization wide contest such that the department with the lowest number of tricked employees wins some prize or recognition.
Phishing attacks will continue and become more elaborate. The best defense is to employ technical safeguards to help detect them as well as to train your staff how to recognize them and not take the bait.
Happy HIPAA trekking!

Something I noticed, however, is that there seems to be a gap in the coverage of games. A lot of the friends I talk to either like the really old stuff (pre 1995) or the quite modern stuff (post 2005), but don't care as much for the games in that decade between, and there's a lot of games in this time period in my collection that I feel deserve to be mentioned. I don't plan to stick to this era strictly, and I'll probably focus on stuff that is now rather obscure, because everybody has heard enough about those mega popular beasts like Diablo 2 and Half-Life, but hopefully some of these games may be of interest to somebody else out there!
I'll also try to make sure I keep the genres fairly well shuffled, so you don't get bored reading about the 20th city building sim in a row. Rather than doing contemporary reviews with scores, I merely wish to give a simple impression of the games I play. A lot of these I've never played before, and am only just playing for the first time as I write about them, so I've probably not played them all the way through. Hopefully it still provides a decent bit of insight!
Thanks for checking out Semi-Nostalgic, and I hope you'll enjoy the ride as I play my way through forgotten games that I always wanted to play as a teenager but never could afford to. I've got quite a few games I'd like to cover, and my collection is always growing, so stick around to see what I come up with next.

I enjoy games from every time frame, locking yourself down into one era seems a bit silly to me. Doing that only means you miss out on the new great games or the old great games, you still have to deal with the bad games either way.ReplyDelete
Lovely, lovely!ReplyDelete
Darth Helmet: Absolutely, and I love playing both newer games and older games than this time frame. I find, however, that people don't often discuss the games from those time periods, so I want to talk about those games here. As I said, though, I will not be sticking to this era strictly.ReplyDelete
Gnome: I hope you find some enjoyment among these pages!
I think a lot of bad games came out during this time, bad FMV games and the like. It was a turning point for graphics and the like too leading to bad implementation. Can leave a bad taste in peoples mouths. Other people are just so stuck in the era they love they leave a gap in fear of what might be found in it. (Of course this is just opinion is most likely bullcrud.)ReplyDelete
Nobody would deny that there were plenty of awkward games around this time. But there were also some *gems*!ReplyDelete

<P>News Briefs
CI Subject Survey to Launch Monday
A survey for the Class of 2006 will launch Monday as part of Phase I of the program evaluation for the Communication Requirement. Phase I began in Fall 2005 and is the first step in the 18 month-long process of assessing the Communication Requirement, which became mandatory for students starting with the Class of 2005.
The Communication Requirement was approved by the faculty in March of 2000 and requires students to complete four subjects designated Communication Intensive: two in a student's major program (CI-M) and two in the humanities, arts, and social sciences (CI-H).
Anna Frazer, assistant dean for the Communication Requirement, said that the planned evaluation is a "formative assessment," and the feedback will be used to implement changes in the requirement and assess the program's effectiveness. A second survey, also part of Phase I, will be given to faculty members at the beginning of May.
There was no formal evaluation of the Communication Requirement last year, the first year that the requirement was fully implemented. The Subcommittee on the Communication Requirement "hadn't really decided how to structure the assessment" at that time, Frazer said.
The program evaluation, which consists of three phases, will continue into Spring 2007, concluding with a look at the overall impact of the Communication Requirement. Additionally, the SOCR is on a three-year repeating schedule of visiting four to five departments each year and evaluating their CI-M's. Department visits will look at a variety of factors, including how the CI portions of classes are taught by different professors and whether the goals of the communication requirement are being met, Frazer said.
Frazer said that members of the Subcommittee on the Communication Requirement also plan to examine recent Institute-conducted senior surveys over the summer for any data it could use.

Stellar Keeps Statistics Private
Stellar, MIT's online course management system, does not make most of its useage statistics available to course staff.
In particular, when individual students download materials, readings, or assignments, "log information is not available to instructors, TA's, or administrators, either on an individual or aggregate basis," according to Richard L. Garcia of Academic Computing.
According to Garcia, Stellar's homework submission tool and discussion tool do let course staff see when homework assignments are submitted or posts are made to discussion boards.
Mark W. Brown, the project manager for Stellar, said that the architects of Stellar have been very conscious of student privacy issues, and have made a concerted effort to not compromise student privacy.
When asked about publishing Stellar's policy for disclosure of logs, Garcia said that Stellar "certainly should make the policies we follow more visible, and we'll incorporate that information into our upcoming site work."

F is for "freelancing," and it also stands for a few other words that strongly represent what being a freelancing solopreneur is all about. As today is a Friday, I thought it appropriate to keep the tone light and the content fun with a list of some f–words that freelancers and all solo-pros can relate to:
Faithful – When you make freelancing your career choice, you need to faithfully show up for work – physically and mentally – every day and stay the course.
Focus – Distractions are a freelancer's worst enemy. Your level of productivity and progress toward your goals depends on your ability to block out the noise and remain on task.
Fastidious – As a freelancer, you always need to be on top of the details and aim for accuracy in all you do.
Frustration – It goes with the territory. There are times when not all will be going your way and you won't like it one bit.
Failure – You'll succeed at some things as a solopreneur, but you'll also fail at times as you grow your business. Realize that you can learn from those moments and become better and more successful as a result.
Fair – To earn a reputation as someone other professionals like to do business with, you need to be fair in how you treat all people. Don't jump to conclusions or judge based on first impressions. Don't make mountains out of mole hills.
Firm – As a freelancer, you offer value. Project confidence in what you bring to the table and stand firm when the occasional prospect questions your worth and puts you up against the wall for a lower rate. It's not always easy to hold your ground, but never undervalue your expertise and services.
Fears – Like every small business owner, you'll encounter uncertainty and risk that could threaten your ability to succeed and sustain your business. It's scary. Don't feel inferior for having fears. The important thing is that you face them head on and do what needs to be done to overcome adversity and move past what stands in your way.
What other F-words can you add to the list? I drew the line at 8, but I know there are probably 800 more!

Now for my first Videogame review, I will be reviewing The Beginners Guide. Get it?! Other than the title however, this is probably not the best game to start off with. The Beginners Guide is unique, not only as a concept but through the commentary it offers on many elements within the videogame industry. If you're looking for a powerful narrative experience with a lot to say, The Beginners Guide is a must, but to many others this will be a pretentious, difficult experience.
The Beginners Guide is the latest creation of Davey Wreden, the man behind The Stanley Parable. The Beginners Guide draws a lot from The Stanley Parable, including the meta interpretation of games, a first person experience through an enclosed environment, and an omniscient narrator. Unlike Stanley however, Guide is a very linear experience which directly funnels the player through a series of random and abstract environments. All the while, Wreden's assured voice permeates through the experience, explaining what you are 'playing' and where it derives from. Ultimately the story told is about a man simply called Coda, and how making short games was an outlet for him to escape from his anxiety and depression.
Its a fascinating way to tell a story, and touches on many powerful emotional beats and twists. Not only that, but the story comments on recurring ideas about videogames themselves – the relationship between player and designer, the interpretation of games and the experience of the player itself. Its very thoughtful and well-told, although I would criticise the end by being a bit too clear-cut. Personally I think having a more ambiguous ending would have been better for the experience of the player, simply as it would force them to piece it all together. Simply put, Guide does sometimes rely too heavily on showing rather than telling, which is not a particularly stellar storytelling technique.
The entire game also drips with gorgeous design and music. The little creations you go through are varied and vast, but still tightly constructed and the music along with Wreden's voice leads to a palpable atmosphere of discovery and emotion. However, your enjoyment of the game doesn't rely on the story or the atmosphere. Its dependant on your expectations – what you expect the game to be, and what you hope to take away from that experience. Experience is probably a better word for The Beginners Guide than game. At only 90 minutes long, this is more of a lightly interactive movie, and if you're hoping for anything less you're going to be disappointed – but if you are looking for a purely well-told story, powerful emotional resonance and commentary on interesting issues I cannot recommend this game highly enough.

I don't know enough about agriculture to explain why this is the case, but for some reason corn has peaked very late this year. All summer long I was craving buttery corn on the cob, but each attempt was met with sub par corn- a little tough and flavorless. Usually the best corn is harvested in August, but as a last ditch attempt I picked some up the other day and am I ever glad that I did!
So far this week I've made buttered creole corn on the cob and this lovely vegan corn chowder. I prefer to use coconut milk rather than dairy milk in corn chowder. I thicken it by pureeing half of the original soup separately, adding a couple of spoonfulls of flour, and then combining the pureed portion back into the whole soup pot. I also throw in a couple of red peppers, celery, and two jalapenos for a little kick!
I'm always preaching about buying and cooking seasonally- so I felt it was my duty to share the good news.

The number of offshore Australia visa grants to Indian students has dropped dramatically.
02 July 2010
Australia Visas for Indian students drop by 78 per cent
The number of offshore Australia visa grants for Indian students has dropped dramatically, figures released by the Australian Immigration department show.
In the year 2008-09, 54,574 offshore Australia visa grants were issued to Indian students, but from July 2009 to March 2010 only 11,862 Australia visas were issued: a drop of 78 per cent.
The Australian Immigration Department has put in place stricter Australian Student Visa rules and removed incentives for overseas students to apply for a study course to win permanent residency. The Australian Immigration minister Senator Chris Evans said the changes do not affect international students who want to come to Australia to study and then return home.
Under transitional arrangements, international students who were in Australia prior to February 8, 2010 and hold a vocational, higher education or postgraduate Australian Student Visa are able to apply either for permanent residence if their occupation is on the Australian SOL. Alternatively they can apply for a temporary skilled graduate visa on completion of their studies.
A skilled graduate visa allows former students to spend 18 months in Australia to acquire work experience and seek sponsorship from an employer willing to sponsor them into a job using those skills.
The Australian Visa Bureau is an independent consulting company specialising in helping people lodge their Australia visa applications with the Australian Embassy in Australia House London.

This award is for that match where a U.S. National Team played at the top of its game, rising to the occasion to deliver a memorable performance in 2007 – or even all-time.
MNT vs. Mexico – Feb. 7 @ Glendale, Ariz.
To the chagrin of a wildly pro-Mexican crowd, the U.S. put in an excellent team effort to keep their bitter rivals winless on home turf in the new millennium. A Jimmy Conrad header opened the scoring, and the U.S. defended with confidence against a star-studded Mexican side, before a Landon Donovan breakaway sealed the win.
MNT vs. Ecuador – March 28 @ Tampa, Fla.
Against an excellent Ecuador side that advanced to the knockout stages of the 2006 FIFA World Cup, the U.S. came out with an emphatic 3-1 victory. Though Landon Donovan stole the headlines with his tremendous hat trick, none of the goals would have been possible without excellent team play.
WNT vs. Canada -- May 12 @ Frisco, Texas
On the beautiful pitch of Pizza Hut Park in Frisco, Texas, the USA team steamrolled Canada by a 6-2 score, getting several spectacular goals in a game where the margin of victory could have been even greater. It was the USA's biggest win over a full strength Canadian team in seven years.
MNT vs. Mexico – June 24 @ Chicago
Despite holding a 1-0 lead at halftime, it was no se puede once again for El Tri against the U.S. Landon Donovan converted a spot kick after Brian Ching was fouled, and then it was Benny Feilhaber's outstanding volley into the top corner that continued the U.S. dominance and kept the Gold Cup in U.S. hands.
U-20 MNT vs. Poland – July 3 @ Montreal
With a nervous draw in the opener against South Korea and a match against Brazil looming, the U.S. needed a result against Poland. What followed was the consummate team performance. After 90 minutes of tough defending, fantastic build up play and some of the best goals of the U-20 World Cup, the U.S. announced their presence at the tournament with a 6-1 win.
U-20 MNT vs. Brazil – July 6 @ Ottawa
Despite the fantastic win against Poland, the U.S. entered the final game of the group stage needing a result against Brazil to ensure qualification for the next round. Two Josmer Altidore goals, and a virtuoso performance by Freddy Adu propelled the Americans to a 2-1 victory.
U-20 WNT vs. Canada full team – July 23 @ Rio de Janeiro
In one of the biggest wins for a youth WNT in recent history, the U.S. Under-20s upset Canada's full Women's National Team in the semifinal of Pan Am Games in Rio de Janeiro. Forward Lauren Cheney scored both goals.
MNT vs. Brazil – Sept. 9 @ Chicago
Although it was a loss for the U.S., their match against Brazil at Soldier Field was one of the most spirited games of the year. Carlos Bocanegra struck first and then Clint Dempsey pulled the U.S. even as the see-saw scoreline mirrored the action on the field. In the end, the U.S. was unlucky not to at least draw with Brazil, but held their own against the best team in the world.
WNT vs. England - Sept. 22 @ Tianjin, China
In a knockout game at the 2007 FIFA Women's World Cup, the USA scored three times in the second half to record a historic 3-0 win over England in quarterfinal. The Americans scored three minutes into the second half and then sealed the game with two goals in a four-minute span with about a half-hour left.
WNT vs. Norway -- Sept. 30 @ Shanghai, China In what was probably the USA's best match of the tournament, the team responded from a crushing loss in the semifinal to record a resounding 4-1 win over Norway to take third place as Abby Wambach scored twice and Lori Chalupny and Heather O'Reilly added goals.

MCDONALD'S are trying to use the full (uncooked) weight of the law to stop a small gang of anarchists whose activities they find unpalatable. McD's decided to nail the burgers after the group of five refused to cease production of their pamphlet, innocently entitled 'What's Wrong With McDonald's'. Now, after chewing the matter over, you'd think the McMulti McMillion-pound enterprise would have little interest in swallowing such a piecemeal group, but apparently not. Yet, however cheesed off the Big Macs at Ronald McDonald HO may be, they have merely succeeded in drawing attention to the paper and the recent World Anti-McDonald's Day that the now-famous five organised. So far, the police have refused to grill the suspects or carry out any major investigation. Anyone interested in assisting with their legal fees should write to Greenpeace (London nor International) 5 Caledonian Road, London, N1.
SWITZERLAND provided a few shocks when they gallantiy lost 2-1 in Glasgow last week. Although none can have been more surprised than The Guardian. Strangely, they had chosen to print a preview of Scotland's forthcoming football match with Sweden - right sport, wrong country. Our Scandinavian friends have not been here since 1981 , nor did the bemused SF A know of any plans to entertain them in the future. Still, Sweden, Switzerland, Swaziland - what's in a name eh? Well, quite a lot. Sweden is where the Euro
Championships will be held in 1992, Switzerland is the team we have to beat en route and Swaziland? Well , they'll probably be the ones who put us out of the next World Cup.
SALVO (the Scottish Arts Lobby) have fired off a broadside at Ian Lang MP, Minister for Industry at the Scottish Office, over his proposals to set up Scotland By Design Ltd. The gunners had strong indications that what hard-crafters wanted was a Craft Council to promote their work - just as their English counterparts have. Alas, the honourable Mr Lang saw fit to overlook this and introduce a limited
company which SA LVO claim will have no other remit than business promotion. As they point out, if the cultural value of the crafts in Scotland is ignored, then even the purely economic role that Lang seems to envisage for them will ultimately fail too. Meanwhile, a new craft of voodoo doll making may soon be sweeping the land.
WOW, it's like happening all over again. In a bid to outdo Manchester as the mecca of patterned clothing, those hip.cats at Clackmannan District Council Leisure Group are staging the hippy musical, Hair- for the second time this year. This time the age of Aquarius will be dawning at the Mitchell Theatre, Glasgow.
Rumours that Clackmannan District Council are now hoping to stage a 'Woodstock' in the local memorial park have, sadly, been denied. Nor will the council vehicles be resprayed in various surreal dayglo designs. Pity.
THOUGH the future of Glasgow's Tramway is currently a matter for Mystic Meg and the metropolis' guv'nors, the administrators are determined to remain firmly on the map. So determined are they that . visiting celebs or audience members will be able to find the old tram store that they have printed maps of the northern hemisphere with TRAMWAY clearly marked slap in the middle of Britain. A further, more detailed portion does show its position vis-a-vis Glasgow and Edinburgh airports and another even shows people its whereabouts in the former city, just incase they should get lost in the small collection of buildings around it~ known locally as Glasgow.

Another solid day on the ASX200 with a gain of 43 points to 5550(late surge adding 13 points in the chocolate wheel) leaving us up 24 points for the week. Not too shabby given what has been happening overseas. Of course some would say that we are stuck in a backwater compared to Japan and the US markets but that would just be sour grapes. Banks in focus today as Ex Divs in Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited (A$32.88, -2.1%) and National Australia Bank Limited (A$33.22, -2.8%) took a small toll with nearly 20 points of falls due to divs so it was especially heartening.

Expect the sellers to be back on Monday.
In industrials Australian Agricultural Company Limited (A$1.55, +8.4%) was a stand out as were Transfield Services Limited (A$1.885, +1.1%) and even poor old Metcash Limited (A$2.85, +1.8%) whilst Woolworths Limited (A$34.48, +0.4%) came in for some profit taking after a turbulent week.Some of the consumer stocks like Harvey Norman Holdings Limited (A$3.91, +2.4%),Premier Investments Limited (A$11.06, +2.1%) and Pacific Brands Limited (A$0.485, +5.4%) also put on a few shekels with Ten Network Holdings Limited (A$0.27, +17.4%) soaring on takeover talk.Seriously.

Ten Network Holdings Limited (A$0.27, +17.4%) Big mover today and plenty of volume as TEN becomes every traders play thing ,not just confined to the rich and famous.Whether anyone will want to actually take the leap and bid for the station remains to be seen.Lots of issues involved with ACCC etc and the egos of a billionaire or two.

Australian Agricultural Company Limited (A$1.55, +8.4%) big news in Little China as Minister Pyne was on Telly this morning talking free trade and live exports to our biggest friend. 1m head of cattle look to be heading to Shanghai and beyond in coming years or so he said. Apparently a disease called Bluetongue has held a deal up on the cattle but Forktongue seems to have solved that.

This weekend was so much fun and SO busy!!! We went to Rogers to spend some time with my family and go to the Heritage v. Rogers football game. Andrew had a big test today, so we drove separate so he could go home when we left the game. The girls had a blast at the game. They did spend a little time in the stands but they clocked most of it running up and down the hill. Saturday morning we at breakfast at Chick-fil-A with Uncle Ryan, Aunt Jo, Audrey, Mimi, and Pap-pa, then it was off to the mall. (I got Hadley's Halloween costume!) After the mall it was nap time and then the most AMAZING Pumpkin Patch.
Before we left on friday I heard Hadley in her playroom grunting only to go in and find her on top of her shelves. She had pushed her little table next to it to help her climb up.
Waiting for the hayride.
Hadley thought this goat was so funny, because it kept jumping on and off the bucket.
Hadley picked out her pumpkin.
We really enjoyed getting to spend some time with my family and Hadley really did have a blast at the pumpkin patch. I can't believe its already October, HOORAY!!
Thanks for checkin' in!!

Heelo Peeps!!!! Have not worked on anything in particular as of now..... Have been loitering around a lot..... But had few things that I wanted to share.... So here I am.....
First is a ribbon swap at TLL.... I received my swap just yesterday.. So here they are.... All so yum & appealing..... :)
Are they not tempting.....???? Just looking forward to use them a.s.a.p........
And this is a glimpse of the album I made for one of our fellow crafters...... Had started on it, 4 months back...... There was a lengthy break in between & then sat back to complete it..... Had been almost a month since it was completed, but took a long time to capture it....
Album is themed "Scraps & Swirls".... All the elements I have used on it are scraps from my stash, which had piled up to a great fall..... Waiting for them to be used appropriately..... Hence managed to consume just a small portion of it..... ;)
Started with no idea of scrap books, but now have fallen in love with it..... But yes I'm quite apprehensive of sending it across to her...... Keeping fingers crossed!!!!! Sincerely hope she likes it...... :D
That is it for now.... Will be back soon with some projects..... Lots of love to ALL!!!!

We found Little Flint Cottage to be a great base for exploring East Anglia in mid-March, 2014. The cottage is private and secluded. The nearby Lyons Green Cottage was vacant until the last day of our stay, but is a few hundred feet away and screened by trees, so we were never aware of our neighbors.
The cottage is kept warm and cozy by the classic Rayburn cooker in the kitchen, electric heaters in the bedrooms and an open fireplace in the living room. The bedrooms are comfortable with an adjacent bathroom. A shower/laundry room is off the kitchen. In addition to the Rayburn cooker, there is an electric hob and the kitchen provides all the necessary appliances and cookware. All rooms have nice views to the fenced yard and beyond to a pasture. Our hosts welcomed us with breakfast supplies.
We enjoyed our stay and would certainly return here if we ever find ourselves in East Anglia again.
