text: whodares 230 Report post Posted April 25, 2018 11 hours ago, DonCheadle said: I'd argue YasNas stacks in the sense of enemy VP on the Kodoku trigger (plus he doesn't really get any worse as the game goes on). He definitely has similarities (Stubborn, Statline, damage reduction) but isn't one of the riders. And let's be honest, be glad that he isn't, imagine him in a Levi crew! The semi-stacking on the Kodoku Trigger is probably something I don't like at all. It encourages letting your opponent score VP and the entire point of the game is to score as much as possible while denying as much as possible. The fact that Kodoku stacks on up to 3 enemy VP is counter-intuitive to the entire concept of Malifaux. What I also don't like about it is that it's more something you don't really have control over. While the Riders can guarantee their stacking mechanic from Turn 2, you need to win a duel to even be allowed to use yours AND win the duel with the right suit. This is a lot more card-intensive and I've almost never been able to meaningfully use Kodoku due to this. Then you also have to account for the "minion-only" clause. Yes, it's not enemy only and you can use it on your own minions. Yes, it then uses your own VP which is not counter-intuitive. It still takes away at least 1 card which could have been used for something else. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What Lies Within Us
Friday, May 27, 2016
I take it all back.
While on the phone this evening, it seemed to get a bit too quiet upstairs. When I went up to investigate I was informed that one child had pooped inside of a cardboard box, and then the second child had sat down in said box. Never mind...maybe it isn't getting easier...weirder? definitely....but maybe not easier.

One of those who cried the loudest when it was discovered that Dole accepted the LCR check was Pat Buchanan, who was fighting Dole for the Republican Nomination. Buchanan wanted to know how Dole could 'compromise' his position by accepting campaign funds from a homosexual group.
Watching the whole affair from the sidelines was liberal prankster Michael Moore. Moore asked the obvious question: Aren't candidates supposed to take all the money they can, wherever they can find it? How many of Dole's opponents would really back down from free money? Moore decided to try an experiment. Enlisting the cooperation of an Ithaca bank, he set up a few accounts under the following names:

Last night's show we talked a little bit about Blackwater USA.
Download the show here . Played a bunch of music too, including a brand new recording from the Greg Ward Project
Throw Away Your TV has some more good stuff on Blackwater too.
Blackwater has been in the news recently:
We played this video over the air, from the author of a recent book about Blackwater.
The question that comes up for me on this issue is, if there is unrest in this country in the future, if we all get fed up with the state of things and show our outrage in the streets, is it BlackWater Thugs that come out with their AK's? These people have no allegiance to human rights, freedom of speech, or fair trial.
Furthermore, they have no interest in ending this war. They make billions of dollars from tax payers to stay over there. We can write our representatives, cast our ballots, protest in the streets, while this and many other companies grease the pockets of our representatives, fund campaigns, and have no reason to listen to public sentiment.
As always, if you have ideas for what we should cover next week, email me or annie, firstname.lastname@example.com or email@example.com

My grandmother loved to travel. On one of her adventures to India she bought some block dyed fabric for my mother. It was brown. So my mother being a fan of bright colors never got around to using it but she kept it around out of obligation. A few years ago my grandmother died and so my mom decided she didn't need to keep the fabric any more and gave it to me where it sat in my spare room for a few years waiting for me to start sewing again. I picked up another retro pattern from Butterick, 5603
I was planning on doing the view with the tie shoulders but as I was reading the suggested fabrics I noticed the wrap bodice view suggested boarder print fabric and suddenly I had a home for this indian fabric. Now the piece I had was only 100″ long and this pattern said it would take 5 1/2 yards. So I laid out all the pieces like a puzzle before cutting a thing and I was able to get them all in.
My only complaint with this pattern is the number of layers of fabric in the bodice. By the time you attach it to the skirt you sewing through 5 layers minimum 13 layers at the darts (and there are a LOT of darts). But this fabric was thin so it worked out.

As I'm packing up to ship out I found this rare photo of my beloved sister Kerrie holding my niece Mia with our grandmother Hannah looking on. Kerrie and I were very close and although it's been two years since she passed (01/04/12) I still grieve for her.
When I saw her in the hospital her consultant said she was very ill but in no immediate danger; he suggested she would still have another year. That was on the Wednesday (I think) and as I was booked to fly out to India on the Saturday I boarded my flight. Readers will know I lived in India for a long time and still have very strong connections there; it had been two years since we'd been back and I was so looking forward to going and seeing everyone again.
When we arrived our place (Bananaville) was exactly as we had left it; bags of rice in the cupboard, an open pack of cigarettes on the sideboard. It was almost as though time had stood still and so good to be 'home'; over the weekend we caught up with a few of our closest friends.
On the Monday I had just about got over my jet lag when the phone went and I could see it was a UK call. I went out onto the balcony to take the call and sat in a basket seat. Kerrie's partner Stuart was in tears and I knew before he spoke that I had lost my beloved sister. I can't describe how I felt and still cant; even if I could I don't want to.
At Kerrie's service I sang the Fields of Athenrye for her at her request. Stuart was inconsolable and told me he didn't think he could go on. He phoned me often from Kerrie's mobile, sometimes in the middle of the night, which I found so distressing because Kerrie's photo came up as the caller on my phone. Within six months he too passed away. His heart had broken.
Photos such as this one are so treasured for me; sometimes that's all you have.

Marli's Chi's - AKC Longcoat Chihuahuas
of San Jose, California
There's no question about it, chocolate and other products made from cacao beans 宧., cocoa mulch ?tain substances toxic to certain animals, including both dogs and cats. And the main culprit is indeed theobromine, a caffeine-like chemical which acts as a mild diuretic and stimulant in human beings but is poisonous to animals less well equipped to metabolize it.
Cocoa mulch, which consists mainly of cacao bean shells, contains a much higher concentration of theobromine than chocolate processed for human consumption, like that in candy bars. Dogs are attracted to the scent and in documented cases have eaten the stuff, leading to vomiting, diarrhea, trembling, seizures and, in some instances, death (see symptom list). While it's equally toxic to cats, veterinarians say they are less likely to ingest cocoa products and are therefore less at risk.
If you suspect your dog may have eaten cocoa mulch, the ASPCA recommends contacting your veterinarian immediately or calling the Animal Poison Control Center at 1-888-426-4435 for advice.
Veterinary Q & A: Chocolate Toxicity
much of a good thing...
Please see the archive for more Q & A topics.
importance of chocolate...
Chocolate is popular year round, especially near holidays. I love chocolate. I have it readily available at all times. I could even say that I need chocolate now and then. This is not the case for animals, however! Chocolate is toxic, and sometimes even fatal, for animals. Dogs are most commonly affected, due to their ability to find it and the common 'sweet tooth' they seem to have. It is important to remember that cats and other species are susceptible to the toxic effects of chocolate, too.
What makes
chocolate toxic, anyway?
Chocolate is made from the fruit (beans) of the cacao tree. Theobromine, a component of chocolate, is the toxic compound in chocolate. (Caffeine is also present in chocolate, but in much smaller amounts than Theobromine.)
Theobromine's effect on the body:
Are some
chocolates more toxic than others?
Yes. Unsweetened (baker's) chocolate contains 8-10 times the amount of Theobromine as milk chocolate. Semi-sweet chocolate falls roughly in between the two for Theobromine content. White chocolate contains Theobromine, but in such small amounts that Theobromine poisoning is unlikely.
What are the
signs of toxicity?
Signs are most commonly seen within 12 hours (or less) of chocolate ingestion.
How is
chocolate toxicity treated?
If you suspect that your pet has eaten chocolate (more than the stray chocolate chip that fell on the floor), call your veterinarian for advice. The toxicity of Theobromine is dose dependent. This means that the size of your pet, the type of chocolate, and quantity of chocolate determine if or how toxic it is for your pet.
There is no specific antidote for Theobromine toxicity. Medical treatment is supportive, and may include all or some of the following:
Why isn't
chocolate toxic to humans?
Humans can break down and excrete Theobromine much more efficiently than dogs. The half life of Theobromine in the dog is long; approximately 17.5 hours.

It's one of my all-time favorite songs and over the years has become my personal theme song. Every year...several times a year I do it to myself. I completely overload my brain, my schedule, and my to-do list. Excuse me, while I get some things off my chest. Ahem...yesterday after a very successful yard sale Mike and I sat in the garage EXHAUSTED!! Our week had consisted of 5 12 hour work days for Mike (which means over-time for me), 3 different appointments, 1 case of strep throat, 1 baby who has mastered the art of climbing on the table, 1 baby who has decided she wants to be back in utero...all on top of the normal meals, laundry, school, homework and housework. Ya see where I'm going with this...I'm overwhelmed just typing it!!! Not only is there always a lot to do, but I'm ALWAYS in a hurry to do it (usually because I'm running behind schedule...the schedule that I made)! Most of our controlled chaos cannot be avoided, like the above mentioned, but somehow I always manage to make things a tad more stressful. Sometimes it's simply by deciding to make an extra complicated meal to impress Mike...other times I decide to wash every single item of cloth that is going to be in a garage sale. Go figure. They say insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different outcome. Well there you have it folks...I'm insane.

I must be insane too; But, hey, through it all...you handle it gracefully and you make "insane" absolutely beautiful. Deployments are tough but so are the doldrums and thankless routines of everyday life. If I haven't said it lately, I sure want to thank you for everything that you do for our family. Thanks for being an amazing person.ReplyDelete
Oh Ashley, I am right there with you!! My life is insane enough and I add more to it... which I have NO idea why!! I just volunteered myself to throw a baby shower for a friend...on Mother's Day weekend!! =)ReplyDelete

If you've never heard of pixiwoo, then you need to check them out on youtube. They are my all time favourite and I love their videos.
Anyway so the point of this ramble was that, I find it fairly hard to justify spending quite a bit of money on something which i already have but a little different. So these brushes are sold in Boots & Superdrug mainly and the core collection and the starters kit retail for just under £21 each.. bit steep you think?
Well stop right there and try out iHerb I have just purchased the core collection set, the enhanced starter set and the stippling brush for just under £30 including postage and packaging, how cheap is that?
I will do a full review on my blog when they arrive in under 5 days! But the whole point of this post was to tell you that you can receive $10 off your first order if its more than $40! You could have the whole collection in your hands for a fraction of the normal price. I personally saved myself just under £30!!
Anyway enter promo code HTH012 at the checkout and enjoy your brushes!!
If any of you have any of the brushes, then please feel free to leave any recommendations in the comment section, and i shall check out your blogs!!

- You've heard of this Ashley Madison thing, right? Online site where you make a profile and can basically advertise that you'd like to cheat on your spouse. Got hacked, all the email addresses and some CC info was released this week. 36 million people. OF COURSE I checked Jay's email address (and my own in and lots of others just for fun, to be fair) to … be sure. Rest assured, I have zero concern that the man is cheating on me. But of course I did this because the site is up there and you gotta gawk, right, and then I told him and was all "high five for at least using a different email address if you've been on that site!" and he just stared at me like I'm a martian. Which I probably AM. BUT THEN he's been getting a real kick out of it, like "hold on honey, gotta check my AM account real quick," or "Wow, thanks for telling me about that cheating site, it's so fun!" So, I guess I deserve that. He also just walked by and I said "I'm writing about you," and Jay said "Oh! The Huge Penis blog continues!"
- Related: The revelation that Josh Duggar used the site to actually cheat on his wife. While of course holding down a job designed to keep lots of people from having functional monogamous relationships. AFTER the revelation that he'd molested at least 5 people while he himself was a child. But…people were surprised? The stuff kind of all goes under "very standard things that happen in a sexually oppressed moderately abusive hyper religious household." Seriously.
- FunnyLoveChild is getting pretty active, but Jay still can't feel her from the outside, and I think it's making him bummed. It's a little early for him to be able to feel anything, but I can't WAIT for him to. Homegirl's getting stronger! She's the inspiration for the picture above: she really likes Starbucks croissants. She actually probably likes the sugary drinks that usually accompany them (don't judge), but I say it's the croissants. Maybe it's both. She's definitely my child.
- I'm making something in the slow cooker for dinner tonight, and it's just always so baffling to me that those things work. I turn them on and I'm all….it's still cold! Are you working? I know that's the point, but I'm still much more into instant gratification than that, thank you very much.
- Fun weekend plans? We're going to see Bruce Hornsby at The Biltmore in Asheville with lots of friends and family. We go to see him somewhere almost every year and are big fans. This year we get extra special seats with a shuttle and chairs due to being crippled. I'll let you know how the accommodations are in the mountains on a massive property for people who can't walk more than 100 feet at a time.
Have a great one!

His humor is largely reliant on LOL I EAT CATS AND BABIES that was sort of funny in 2002, and random unneeded violence.
Anyone who isn't a goth Satan worshiper seems to be shown as an idiotic caricature.
Oh, and he also likes to copy jokes from south park and family guy.
So what do you think of it?

Fishing is a timeless sport that appeals to many different people for many different reasons. To some folks, fishing is a competitive sport with trophies to be had. Other may think of fishing as a hobby that helps them relax. A steadily shrinking minority of humans even consider fish as a food source. No matter what your purpose for fishing, it is something you can do and the following advice will teach you how.
One sharp fishing hook will catch more fish than ten dull ones. The hook ensures your catch stays on the reel when you pull it in. Frequently test how sharp your hooks are, and quickly sharpen or replace them if they start to get dull.
A good fishing tip to remember is to wear clothes that blend in with the surroundings. While they don't have good eyesight, fish can see color and may be frightened away by overly colorful, noticeable items. Neutral tones and earth colors are best to blend into your surroundings.
Sunscreen is a vital part of your fishing equipment, even if the temperature is not going to be very high. The sun's beams reflect off the water so you want to be protected.
Give fly fishing a shot! There are many great benefits to fly fishing, but you must remember that it is very different from other styles of fishing. Before you try your hand at fly fishing, you must purchase an entirely new set of rods, lures and other equipment.
Try doing fly fishing. Fly fishing is a productive and popular way to fish, but you need to keep in mind that it is distinctly different from other types of fishing. You will need completely different equipment, from the rod to your clothing.
Bass are very attracted to grubs used as bait. These types of bait will help you catch big, tasty fish as well. Grubs are often used as bait for smallmouth bass; however, they can also be used as bait for largemouth bass. They are an excellent choice for bait when fishing in areas that do not have large amounts of coverage like reservoirs.
Look for areas of deep water. Check into areas that have the deepest water when you are river fishing. Fish usually congregate in these types of areas. Large rocks or overhanging ledges are also favored spots. Take note of a particularly productive place in the river so that you can return.
Wet your hands thoroughly before pulling in your catch. This will keep your hands from stripping the fish of its natural oils. This is especially true in cases where you will be required to release the catch right back into the water.
Act responsible when you fish. Fishing responsibly includes protecting the environment when fishing. Always remember to take your litter home with you. Make sure you are aware of fishing regulations and follow all of them. Always release a fish that isn't large enough to eat.
Larger Bait
Prior to going fishing, check the weather. You might be surprised by a bad thunderstorm, winds, or hail, if you don't check first. If the weather gets fierce, you might not be prepared properly if you do not check first. Be cautious, and go over the weather forecast prior to going fishing.
For larger fish, try using a larger bait on your line. Although larger bait is more costly from most tackle stores, it can result in a larger catch. This is logical since larger fish will choose larger pieces of food and therefore, will be out looking for larger bait.
Try avoiding windy areas when fly fishing. If it's too windy, your casting will lose accuracy. There is less wind in the early morning or the evening which is the best period to fly fish. You can try fishing with the wind against your back if it gets a bit too windy.
Make yourself aware of any fishing laws that are in effect where you want to fish. There are many different types of fishing regulations such as the type of bait, the number of fish that may be kept or the number of poles that can be used. One way to ensure that you are following the fishing laws is to speak to local government agencies.
Catch and release is great practice for those who don't plan on eating their catch. This involves unhooking your fish carefully as you release them back to the water. When you practice catch & release, you will not deplete the number of fish available for future fishing opportunities.
Many bass fishermen prefer to use grubs which are light colored. The most popular grubs are white, gray, smokey, or yellow. Another popular choice is a more translucent grub with reflective metal chips inside of it. These grubs reflect light and can draw more fish in. When you can't catch anything, switch over to a grub which matches the color of the water.
A key component to fishing is patience. If you have trouble being patient, you may be better suited to a different sport. Otherwise, you may have to train your levels of patience by starting out with smaller fishing trips.
Make sure your line is wet before tying a knot. It will minimize the friction incurred as you tie, and it will toughen up the knot itself. The best types of knots to use are clinch and double fisherman's knots.
Don't leave trash in water that you fish in. Waste damages our environment's natural beauty, and it harms fish and the plant life in the water as well. Leave nothing behind so your kids' kids can enjoy it too.
When it comes to selecting a rod, don't be afraid to shop around for a durable, higher quality model. Rods that aren't quality made will inevitably crack and outright break when you hook a big fish or get hung up. A low-quality rod offers you only a deceptive savings. You will have to replace it many times over the same period that a single well-crafted rod will last.
Even if you don't see much success keep at fishing for as long as you can. Fishing requires patience. Spend at least 30 minutes in any fishing area before you decide whether it is a good place to fish or not. Many factors can affect the quality of fishing in a particular area–water movement, time of day, sunlight, etc.
When you go fishing, try not to be wasteful of the fish you catch. It may look impressive to have a huge bucket overflowing with fish, but it is important to only keep what you can realistically eat. If you feel you have caught too many, release some of the fish, or share them with friends.
The same bait does not always work. To get the greatest results, understand how to correctly use a jig, worm or grub. Jigs, with their distinctive motion, are ideal for fishing in cloudy or murky water. Yet, plastic worms are much better used in clearer water, this is because they are easy to see so the fish will just come and get them.
Make sure you know what the forecast is before going on a fishing trip. Sometimes, the weather might not be good for fishing. An overcast sky offers the best fishing conditions of all. While a sunny day will be enjoyable for you, you're probably not going to catch as many fish.
To help you have the most optimal fishing experience possible, ensure that the rod and reel you are using is well suited to the type of fish you want to catch. For instance, if you want to catch a walleye, bait it with a jig or minnow. Each different fish has a different optimal bait that changes based on time, location, and other factors.
If you hook a fish that is large and it turns back towards you while bringing it in, you need to release it. Your line isn't long enough at this point to reel it in. In the future, wait just a bit longer before you begin to reel your fish in.
Carefully observe everything around you. Being in sync with your surroundings is a great part of being successful when fishing. Take a moment to listen, and check whether or not noises might be startling the fish. Do a visual survey for splashes or ripples that may reveal where the fish might be. Another way to locate fish is to follow the birds that will catch fish by diving into the water.
Fish during the best weather and at the best time to help you catch the most fish. In the case of bass, the bigger fish are more likely to come out at dawn and dusk when their preferred bait fish are also more active. The water needs to be above 50 degrees at these times.
You may not want to do it, but you're going to have to get up early if you want to catch a fish. Most fish feed at sunup and you need to get started before they start feeding. This is particularly important if you have a distance to go in order to get to the fishing hole.
If the fish you caught is a pike or walleye, watch out for its teeth! This kind of fish will bite at you with zeal, and their teeth are very sharp. Once you verify the fish is no longer alive, grab it by its belly and carefully remove the hook. When you go are set for removal, make sure you are wearing gloves and remove your hook.
If you are getting a lot of bites in a certain area, consider increasing the size of your lure; this will attract larger fish. The big fish will chase the large lure, making it more likely that you'll reel in a big one.
Bug Spray
Think about safety when you go fishing. Select areas to fish where there's no chance of slipping or falling, no current to drag you away and no obstacles in the water or above you which could snag your line. If you decide to fish in deep water, or water that has a strong current, make sure you are always wearing a life jacket. Safety is especially important when fishing from a boat.
Bug spray should be kept in your fishing arsenal. Bugs like mosquitoes are commonly found in areas where people are fishing. Therefore, you need to make sure that you pack some bug spray so that you do not get eaten up by them. Those without bug spray often find themselves bitten numerous times by mosquitoes. This should always be avoided when fishing.
Research! Know the details about the area where you will be fishing. Find out some specific information about your fishing location before you start fishing. Become familiar with the types of fish you are likely to encounter. Check out the water currents and conditions to find the best fishing areas. Check out the weather to see what it'll be like on the day of your trip.
Anyone who is fishing should make sure their line gets as much time as possible in the water. The amount of time you could be wasting by untangling knots or changing lures can be shocking. Remember that the only way you're going to really catch fish is when your line is actually out on the water.
A larger fish will be attracted to a bigger lure or more bait on a hook. Although this may seem obvious, people often forget. Larger fish are going to be more intrigued by a larger food opportunity. Smaller fish won't have much interest in large bait, so you won't be excited over nothing.
With all that you learned about fishing, you should start to see fishing with a different perspective now. Do you prefer fishing over other sports? Or do you do it for fun or sustenance? In any case, you'll find this article's tips on fishing useful.
You don't want to dispose of your dead minnows right away. Sometimes, even though you have dead bait, you still can catch something. You can use dead minnows to jig across the water to make the bait appear alive. You can also cut the dead minnows up and use them as cut bait.

The Old House
2. This house is something of a curiosity and the fact that it was one of the few houses to escape the fire of 1731 gives it an additional interest. It was built about the middle of the C17 by Dr Sagittary - a native of the Palatinate, who held English medical degrees and practised in Blandford. This origin may explain its Germanic character. Dr Sagittary died in 1696. L-shaped 2-storey red brick house with projecting porch wing at front. The roof, the lower part of which has stone slates, is hipped and steeply pitched. Lead flat to porch wing. The wide eaves soffit is supported on heavy shaped brackets of oak. Hipped dormers. The 2 chinmeys are octagonal on square bases and each has 8 circular attached shafts with moulded brick bases and cappings. The Eastern part of the house is of rusticated brickwork and there is a moulded brick eaves cornice. Over the round-headed doorway, which has rusticated brick voussoirs, there are designs in cut brickwork and a moulded niche. All this work is said to have been done in situ. Windows are leaded casements with moulded oak frames and mullions, Those to East part of house having transoms also. There was formerly a contemporary staircase and other carved woodwork internally, but these were removed to Scot;and, where they were destroyed by fire.

Many film creators around the world love the city Tokyo, with its face as an ancient historical place filled with temples and its face as the center of pop culture with the sky rocketing buildings. Because of this dual character, many movies have been filmed here in Tokyo, Japan.
When you think about it, there are too many films to be named. So I'm going to introduce a few films that were filmed recently and are my favorite.
Wasabi (2001)
A French film filmed by Gerard Krawczyk was starred in one of the famous actor in France, Jean Reno and famous actress in Japan, Ryoko Hirosue. The story centers on the yakuza (Japanese mafia) culture in Japan and the film is mainly taken place in Tokyo. Where Yumi (Ryoko) argues with Hubert (Jean) is taken place in Akihabara, the arcade where they play is located in Shibuya.
Kill Bill Vol.1 (2003)
The fourth film made by the Japan loving film creator Quentin Tarantino was filmed in Tokyo as well. The famous fighting scene in the restaurant between Uma Therman and Chiaki Kuriyama was not shot in Tokyo but the place was based as a restaurant in Nishi-Azabu, Tokyo called 'Gonpachi'.
Lost in Translation (2003)
Most of this film, filmed by Sofia Coppola starred by Bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson took place in Tokyo. After its distribution in 2003, many travel agencies in Japan made a tour package where you can visit most of the place where the film was shot and to stay at the Park Hyatt Tokyo (shinjuku) where Bill Murray stayed. Other places taken place in this film was karaoke bar in Shibuya, bars of Nakameguro, and Park Tower Shinjuku.
Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift (2006)
In this film by Justin Lin, part of the exciting car action scene was filmed in Shinjuku and Meguro. Although the main setting was Shibuya in this film, it was never actually filmed in Shibuya. It was mostly filmed in Los Angeles with the visuals of Shibuya added to the film later.
There are many more movies set in Tokyo yet to be introduced, and many that are still unknown to people. Next time when you stop by at any of these places, why don`t you take your time to snap a picture ? or maybe you can find more locations by watching these films over and over again.
Now enjoy Tokyo more!

Nine months after Leicester release and no pro games, Cedric Kipre gets shock Ivory Coast call-up
Kipre is set to become a full international, just 12 months on from being without a club
A year ago, Cedric Kipre must have assumed he had no chance of an international future: he'd been released by Leicester after three years during which he failed to make a single senior appearance in any competition.
Twelve months on, though, times have changed: Kipre joined Motherwell after impressing on trial last summer and, after a successful season, he was called up by the Ivory Coast on Wednesday.
Kipre was actually born in Paris and spent his youth career with PSG, but he's eligible to represent the Elephants through his parents - both of whom were born in the Ivory Coast.
The call-up didn't come completely out of the blue, though: a chance encounter with Kolo Toure at the airport recently tipped his hand. Here's the man himself to explain...
"Last year I wasn't playing professional football. Now I have been called up by Ivory Coast. I'm very proud."
Cédric Kipré speaks about receiving international recognition pic.twitter.com/gUiqT3Q41m
— Motherwell FC (@MotherwellFC) March 21, 2018
Unfortunately for Kipre, his team won't be going to the World Cup, having failed to emerge from African qualifying. They're also still without a manager, after former Belgian coach Marc Wilmots was dismissed for his part in that poor showing.

Leftovers - One of my Secrets to Success!How do you feel about leftovers?
Depending on who you talk to, people typically either hate them or love them. I'm of the kind that absolutely loves having yummy leftovers in the fridge.
Especially when you're trying to eat healthier, I find it's especially important to always have something quick and easy to eat on those busy days. Before I cut out processed foods, I would always turn to a granola bar or a microwaveable meal to get me through those times - but not anymore! So no matter how small the leftovers are, I always throw them in a glass container and refrigerate. Let me tell you, even the smallest bite of chicken or couple spoonfuls of vegetables could be the difference between you staying on track or running to the secret stash of pretzels you have at the back of the cabinet. It can be a game-changer.
I also enjoy having leftovers around because I can easily turn those leftovers into a new dish in half of the normal prepping time. That's another game-changer when you're contemplating take out because you just "don't have any time."
Plus - has anyone else realized that food tastes better the next day, anyway? Take advantage of those developed flavors!
Today, I used some sort of leftovers for all three of my meals - which actually inspired this post!
For breakfast, I made a beautiful and delicious frittata with the leftover Roasted Vegetable Medley with Chorizo Pork Sausage from last night.
To make the frittata, first I took out my leftovers and chopped up the chorizo into smaller, bite sized pieces:
Then I scrambled six eggs with salt, pepper, and fresh italian parsley:
ghee, poured my eggs and sprinkled my chorizo and veggie leftovers:
For lunch, I found half of a butternut squash in the fridge that I had wrapped in plastic wrap to use for another time. Well another time was today! I chopped that baby up, added a sweet potato and some onions and roasted according to this recipe. (I just omitted the carrots this time).
To go along with my orange vegetables, I make some garlicky boneless chicken thighs on the stove top:
Now, sometimes you have to be a little creative and allow yourself to step out of the culinary box when it comes to recreating meals with leftovers. The leftover veggies from earlier were seasoned with rosemary which is a strong flavor. But that didn't stop me from combining the veggies with my carne molida - Puerto Rican style ground beef. This ground beef has cilantro, onions, peppers, tomato sauce, oregano, olives, etc and at first thought - doesn't appear to go well with butternut squash and dried rosemary. But let me tell you - the combo was AMAZING.
Oh and did I mention that I also roasted the seeds from the butternut squash for a nice salty and crunchy snack tomorrow?
To recap, here are my tips for using leftovers:
1.) Make sure to have leftovers - make a little extra of whatever you're making or even double the recipe.
2.) Save every morsel of leftovers - even if it doesn't seem like a lot, it will be worth it.
3.) Always have eggs handy - you can make a frittata or omelet with ANY type of leftovers
4.) Be creative - take a chance and add your leftovers to new dishes even if you're not sure the flavors will go well together. Most of the time, you'll just create a very delicious dish with complex flavors!
5.) Use glass containers to store leftovers - not only does the glass not absorb flavors like plastic does, but it also makes it easier for you to see what leftovers you have in your fridge. You're more likely to use it before it goes bad if you can quickly recognize what's in the container!
Hope this was helpful!

Ratings/Historical Ratings
You can read more about our profile research here: www.csrhub.com/blog/2012/01/moving-beyond-green-the-rainbow-within-csr.html.
We face several methodological issues, when we approach our rating task:
A. Each source has its own perspective and reporting schema. We currently have more than 8,000 different ratings elements in our system. Within the area of "Board performance,"we may have sources who report that a company's board is "good,""C+,"or "2.3;"that a board is "diverse;"that "X% of the board members are women;"that a board meets "Y times per year;"that "the board is (or is not) involved in the sustainability process;"etc. To make sense of this mess, we have to map each element we ingest into one of the 12 parts of our schema. To make the system "fair,"we try to pull in roughly equal numbers of elements and data items for each of the 12 parts.
B. No source covers all companies. We already cover 17,580 companies in 133 countries. Our goal is to cover hundreds of thousands of companies in every country in the world. We will never have a single standard set of data against which we could scale and adjust everything else.
C. Sources tend to be biased or to have discontinuous ratings distributions. Once we have mapped a source, we can compare the ratings it gives for a company against all of the other ratings we have for that company. We can quickly determine if a source is biased positively or negatively. Some sources have only one value (e.g., "Yes, the company does have a policy"). We adjust each source's results to fit the overall distribution for each subcategory and then adjust the overall distribution to reflect the input of the sources.
D. Some sources are more accurate than others. We see this again through a comparison with our other sources. When a source has poor accuracy, we reduce its weight in our system.
The above processes involve massive amounts of computation—we are following a "Big Data"approach. It would be impossible to explain to an outside user exactly why ten sources gave a score of 46 for one company and two of those source plus six others gave a score of 53 for another one. Not only would the conversions appear arbitrary without the support of our analysis (we currently have 133 million data points in our system), but the conversions carry relatively little information. The most valuable information is the data we input from the sources (which we share) and our inventory of which sources track each company (which we also share).
We feel our industry and country averages also contain value. Due to the nature of our approach, all of our ratings are accurate to within less than 1.8 points. (In other words, if one company has a score of 51 and another has one of 49, we are 95% confident that the two scores are different.)
There are many reasons we took this approach:
A. The available facts are not truly comparable between companies. For instance, one company may include supplier contributions in its carbon use. Another may include employee travel. A third could include the effect of its mix of power sources. A fourth might not include its subsidiaries. A normal user who sees these four sets of numbers cannot draw a conclusion from them about which company has better carbon efficiency. In contrast, our expert sources can draw conclusions based on this type of data. By combining the input of several expert sources (after removing any biases we detect in their methodologies) we get a clear signal about which company appears to have better carbon management policies.
B. Each stakeholder group has a different focus and interest. A governance source may approve of a CEO who carefully supervises all of her or his operations. An employee source may dislike the same CEO, because she/he is a micromanager who interferes in day to day operations. A labor source will care less about management style and more about whether or not the CEO allows unions to recruit members and participate in workforce management. Those who try to collect and report facts miss these nuances and obscure the fact that sustainability performance must be measured using a context of personal and moral values.
C. Some of our sources charge large amounts for the use of their data. They are willing to allow us to ingest it into our system, but would be out of business if we passed through all the detailed data they have labored to collect.
If a company improves its policies and puts more emphasis on sustainability, its score in our system should eventually rise. However, the speed with which this happens may depend upon how well the company communicates the changes it has made. It may also depend on how each of the various stakeholder groups views these changes.
Our tool does not tell you how a company is doing. It tells you how everyone else who shares your view of the world (as described in your profile) would think it was doing, if they had access to all 549 of our sources. Our tool is designed to help sustainability practitioners get feedback from the "opinion marketplace"on their company's perceived performance.
You can use our system to discover competitors who rank well and then do your own analysis of how they have attracted attention and praise for their work. As an alternative, CSRHub could introduce you to one of the sustainability consulting firms with whom we have partnered. Our partners could review your internal systems and programs, benchmark your performance against that of your competitors, and then advise you of the best ways to disclose and promote your sustainability achievements.
Search for Information
User Interface
company name, overall, category AND 12 subcategory scores, ticker, industry, special issues, country, state/province, city, zip, website, CSR site, region, industry group, secondary industry and tertiary industry (CSRHub tracks as many as 3 industries per company).
You may export using the grey " Export "button that is just under the " Companies found :"text on the search results page. Many users seem able to "slice and dice"the company list down to show the set of companies you need, using the "Add logic"pulldown and multiple layers of search (See Search for information section), and then copy data from the search area.
However, if you have a specific list of companies you want to review, you can instead build a "saved list"of companies. You can then export the saved list data using the second Export button that is down near the bottom of the search results page, near the grey bar that says "Saved list."Basically, you find the companies you want and put them into your list, save the list and then it will be ready to export.
All exports contain the columns you see in your search results. You can change from the default to one of the alternate default layouts, using the pull down that is just under the first export button (the one in the green section) and that is to the right of this text: "Select your list layout from these choices.".
If you don't like any of the layouts we offer as defaults, you can make your own list layout by going to the list layout section of the My CSRHub area ( http://www.csrhub.com/list_layout). Watch a brief video on Changing List Layout.
B. Go to the "Data"menu in Excel and pick "Text to columns"conversion.
C. In the menu for conversion, tell the wizard to use "semicolons"as a "delimiter."
The reason we use semicolons as a delimiter is because many company names contain commas and other special characters. Fortunately, to date, none contain semicolons! This should result in a nicely formatted table with headings and each item in a sortable format.

Cheese maker Nick Haddow of Bruny Island Cheese Co. always thought there was a need for "a really great cheese festival in Australia" that focuses solely on domestic product.
He's teamed up with Bottle Shop Concepts (the guys behind Pinotpalooza) to put on Mould, a cheese festival that celebrates and showcases the cream of Australia's cheese crop, with more than 80 varieties to sample and purchase from 20 local producers.
"The default position is that European or overseas cheeses are better," says Haddow. "And that's not true. I think the industry is at a point where we can definitely stand up and celebrate how good what we're doing in Australia is."
A ticket gets you access to the daylong event at the Meat Market in September, where cheese producers such as Shaw River Buffalo, Holy Goat and Milawa will make themselves available for a chat and, of course, "give you a taste of everything that they make", says Haddow.
There'll also be grilled-cheese sandwiches and flaming Reubens from Maker & Monger as well as molten raclette from Harper & Blohm. Haddow has also hinted at potential cheese-flavoured ice-creams and gelatos.
Bottle Shop Concepts is also keeping things domestic on the drinks front. There will be loads of local beers and ciders, including Haddow's Tasmanian Bruny Island Beer Co, and local wines from Patrick Sullivan and Pennyweight. You'll also find sheep's whey vodka from Grandvewe and whisky from Melbourne-based distillery Starward.
The day culminates with a take-home platter; each cheesemaker will display their two best varieties – "the cheese they're most proud of" – from which you can pick three.
Basically, "it's an awesome room full of fantastic cheese", says Haddow. "Just let yourself go."
Mould: A Cheese Festival's day session is sold out. The night session runs from 6pm to 9pm on Saturday September 2 at Meat Market, 5 Blackwood Street, Melbourne. Tickets are $40 to $45.

Getting Creative With Services Advice
Benefits of Personalized HVAC Repair Services Wear and tear is common in machines after using them for some time. Based on that fact, it is wise to think about getting the appropriate repair or replacement services when in need. Apart from considering cost and professionalism, it is wise to hire a company that aims to deliver personalized services. Here are the some of the benefits that come with such a decision. One of the main things that distinguish other repair companies from the rest is their notable high standard services. Right from the get go, established companies do ensure that their prospective clients do not pay for consultation services. Inspection is a service that you would commonly pay to get when working with most of the other repair firms. To ensure clients get value for their money, the best repair companies ensure their technicians have the appropriate qualification needs. In addition to the professionalism and expertise that reputable firms employ, they also find it easy to engage different clients through their great interpersonal skills. That is, they easily relate with any type of client to understand their needs and expectations after the repair project. It goes without saying that having the chance to interact with the technicians adds some level of satisfaction to the experience.
What Do You Know About Businesses
Regardless of the scope of work involved in your repair or replacement project, the best firms will have you covered. Through their effective approach; the firms under discussion ensure clients worry not. Based on the professionalism that HVAC repair companies follow, you will only pay for the work its technicians have completed. During that time, the lead technician will update you about the progress while addressing your ideas and suggestions. Involving clients in a project usually leads to satisfactory results.
What I Can Teach You About Services
Another benefit that comes with professional repair firms is their clear understanding of individual clients' needs. Armed with the detailed information about individual clients, impressive HVAC repair firms do make reasonable follow up visits to clients to ensure their systems are operating optimally. Better yet, the mentioned firms do not request for additional payment for the follow-ups. In case your HVAC system fails during the night you can rest assured that companies offering personalized services would have it fixed as soon as possible. Technicians working in the mentioned companies work closely with their call representatives to respond to client requests within the shortest time. Without the emergency services, clients have to wait until daytime to get any form of assistance. The above ideas clearly show the importance of contracting a repair firm that strives to deliver personalized services. The professional services will cost you money, which you will enjoy its value afterward. Clearly, this shows the benefit of spending money on professional services. Your return on investment will show through impressive and durable repair services.

6-Month* financing available.
16-stage analog phase shifter module for Eurorack systems.
The Pittsburgh Modular Phase Shifter is a complex, 16 stage, analog effect module designed to expand on the classic swirls, rich swooshes, and doppler effects associated with the phaser. The Phase Shifter has a single 16 stage audio signal path to create a very rich, full sound. Phased audio outputs are tapped from stages 7, 8, 15, and 16. Stages 8 and 16 each have a mix output that allow the phased signal to be mixed with a dry signal.
Four CV inputs, an onboard LFO, and multiple CV routing options allow for maximum flexibility and extremely deep modulation options. The CV inputs are split into 2 groups. The first group of CV inputs controls either all 16 stages or just stages 1-8. The second group of CV input controls stages 9-16 and is switchable on or off. All CV signals routed to stages 9-16 can be inverted. Resonance can be positive or negative and the module will self oscillate in either direction.
To modulate the phase shifter circuit, the module includes a wide range low frequency oscillator. The LFO range varies from 1 minute per cycle to well into audio range. The triangle wave of the LFO is hardwired to modulate the frequency of all 16 channels of the Phase Shifter. External modulation sources are handled using 2 sets of CV inputs. Each set includes an invertible, uni-polar CV input that accepts 0v to 5v modulation signals and a bi-polar CV input which accepts -5v to +5v signals. All of the modulation CV inputs can be used simultaneously and can be mixed with the internal LFO to create very complex frequency modulations. Stages 1-8 and 9-16 can be modulated together or independently using the available switches and CV inputs.

Youth vs Experience
Obviously there are things that the young can do that us older guys can't and things we older guys can do that the young can't, but wich is truly better? Not just physicaly but also intellectually
Tis high time to show the world my reality
experience by far...
just because you have the capability to so something doesn't mean you have the brains to do it when it's necessary.
i'm a 25 year old freshman in college - most of the people i'm in class with are 18-20. i've seen and done so much more than them it's absurd. and it's reflected in the difference between the decisions we make.
the only thing really frustrating is that they learn a lot quicker than i can, but i'm willing to out work them so it's an odd sort of balance.
Generally have to agree with experience. It's hard to define "better" of course, since it depends on the situation, but experience is often tied to maturity which makes someone a little easier to deal with if nothing else.
"Experience is the name everyone gives to their mistakes."
- Oscar Wilde
i think youth is better
yeah sure experience is all good and stuff... but don't you find it that sometimes experience is holding you back from something you want to do?
i don't know, i see youth as.. adventure waiting to happen
as opposed to experience... i've gone through the adventure, what now?
Youth is better in a lot of ways - you learn quicker, you often have nothing to lose, you have unlimited possibilities and potential. Experience can also play a part, but only if you have learnt from your experience and know how to apply it. I found as I got older I learnt better how to coordinate the information I already had, as opposed to learning new things quicker when I was younger, but often couldn't see how they connected with other things. If that sounds strange, it probably won't when you are 49 like me.
I\'m back
Depends... An elderly man's mind can be a brand knew bear trap, creating a judicious sage, or an old and rusted bear trap... So it depends, how old are we talking? I'd say that 60 or 70 years beats 20 or 30 years. But 90 or 120 years looses out to anything. No dotard is going to beat out a youth...
"Yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could...
Experience is before everything in my mind. The youth are stubborn, hard headed know it alls who think they can best society. I'd trust an adult in any situation rather than a dumbass kid. Of course there are exceptions, but generally a kid believes that he can do everything possible without studying background information or by making ridiculous assumptions.
I'm going to play the sex card. Men look to women to make them feel young, women look to men to be old so they don't have to be.
Let's throw this into the theater of art. Take "Stick Genocide 17", one in a series of twenty flash animations by Billy, age 8. Compare it to someone older and goofier like Neil Cicierega or Seth Greene. Then hold all of them up against Miyazaki. There is probably some magic formula between practice and freshness, but I'm going to go further.
People have been posting on the experiences of youth. Obviously, to be experienced, one must pass through youth, and draw upon that. And you can find youths with a certain amount of experience. But I am not convinced of the superiority of youth based on a romantic concept of "could be" and opportunity, because even a youth, to a certain extent, already contains elements of experience that are already shaping his/her path; no such blank slate truly exists outside of the womb. And if you try to put a fetus up against any other member of the human race, I'll tell you which one I'd bet on.
This message will self-destruct
I get crapped on for being young in my field of work all the time. Then again if we were in the woods being chased by a bear I can certainly outrun a bunch over overweight 40-60 year old men and women. So as far as how my peers view me, experience and age is nice. While being chased by dangerous wildlife in the woods youthful energy is the winner.
Where is my pumpkin?!
About the only thing I would want now from my younger self is the body - it gets harder to keep the 6-pack and good muscle tone when you get older. The strength may stay, but the looks start to fade - in contrast to that, the mind, while not being able to learn new things as easily, is sharper. You see things differently as you grow older, gain experience and learn more about yourself. When you go through more it tends to change your perspective on many things. You learn that there is always an exception; you learn to be more tolerant, and (hopefully) more patient.
There are stages to this that most people under the age of 30 may have a difficult time understanding. When you're 20, you know every thing. When you're 25 you think you know all you really need. When you are 30, you realize you don't know shit. The ages may vary of course, but the basic out line is pretty much the same. I'll let you know what I think I may know (or not) when I hit 35 :P

Talk about job satisfaction. And you'd think that it'd be the older ones who aren't as nimble that would get crapped on instead. Boston IS crazy!

Physically, youth has it --- but there are obese youth and physically fitted adults? So, maybe it depends.
Experience --- most probably, youth has to face more ups and downs to grow. However, there are young ones who went through the crueltyof life at their early age and there are adults who still acts like a brat.
Oh well, mine is experience.
yah, age is usually attached to experience, but in some cases, maybe rare cases, that's not really the case.

Developing The Skills Necessary to Enter Kindergarten
It's not always easy to consider leaving your child in the care of a non-family member. We understand this struggle and are here to help. As a faith-based bilingual preschool, La Escuelita San Alban prepares children for kindergarten by teaching them English, along with the academic and social skills that benefit them immediately and enhance their chances for future achievement. The teachers and staff members are compassionate, loving and dedicated to preschool education.
Bridging the Language Barrier to Develop Self Confidence
When they enter public schools, many young Hispanic children who speak only their native tongue are cast into an unfamiliar, English-speaking environment where they can find themselves left behind. Studies show that without adequate preschool preparation, many Hispanic children enter school well behind their non-Hispanic counterparts, a disadvantage that leads to lower achievement levels throughout their education. At La Escuelita, we help bridge that gap by fostering your child's desire to learn and by building up his or her confidence, one small step at a time.
Helping Children Learn to Interact and Establish Relationships with Adults and Peers.
At La Escuelita, our goal is to teach your child the skills necessary for kindergarten and to help them develop the self-assurance they'll need later to thrive in elementary school. We focus on social and emotional growth, motor development, independent thinking and problem-solving, as well as literacy and language development.

Max, the big dog, provides security, stress relief
Photo: Guiseppe Barranco
In return for some chili cheese fries, Michael Laws got a friend for life.
Laws, who owns and operates EcoWerks, an oil recycling business in Port Arthur, used them to lure a jumpy, underweight dog who'd been begging food scraps from industrial businesses along the Procter Street extension near the Sabine-Neches Ship Channel.
That was about six years ago.
"He was very skittish. Skinny. He probably weighed 30 pounds. He looked beaten," Laws said of the dog who came to be called Max.
"He started showing some favoritism to us," Laws said.
Max had a steep learning curve, however, about how to weave himself in and out of trouble around Southeast Texas industry.

I wish I had more to share, but not much has went on in my game. I'm thinking about switching back to my SN sims since they seem to have the most randomness moments. I do like my farming couple. With it being just 2 of them, it's easier to manage.

Hey CC users! Come test this out with me! :P
I'm sure they are other programs like this, but this one caught my eye today. I did disable some stuff. Hopefully I can finally be rid of the few crappy items I have still lurking in my game. :)
P.S. I was for sure someone like eagle eyes Mares would of mention this or saw something similar, so I'm glad I posted it. And yes it works! Didn't break my brain using it either. :P

Fuzzy Wuzzie Roxie Piccies!
She feeling better. She rarely holds her leg up now or limps, which is a good sign. ^_^
I would of had pics sooner, but she wasn't looking her best at first. Well from having surgery, she couldn't get groomed at all and she was walking hair ball at first. Then when we finally could get her groomed, they had to shave her down to the skin and she was pretty much bald. They even had to cut the curly hair off her ears, because it matted from having so much fur. They are still in the process of growing back. Anyway...

The Sims 4 confirmed for 2014!
Yep it's true! I can't believe it, but it's been confirmed...
Ugh. Already?
Well simmers are you ready to start all over again with brand new glitches and long waits for eps you want? Not to add spending hundreds of dollars on this brand new series. Then waiting for CC to be made for it. I even hear Nraas might not be around for TS4! Fantastic right?

Thanks Tommy Lee for always summing up feelings.

He needs more gear if he's going to ride like that!
Most people can't drive a sport bike this well, and he's on a Harley doing it! He's going down a long curvy mountain road and is taking turns like a pro. Even after a near crash and slide, he didn't stop he was in it to win it! The part that makes us nervous is his lack of safety gear and how close the guy behind him is if he fell he would get really beat up and the guy behind him would most likely also fall. He needs to get a real street bike and show everyone what he can do.
