Planning and Preparation
Start at the end
Ask questions: Why are we doing this? Where do we want to be in X, Y, Z months/years?
Look ahead and visualise: What caused it to fail? How did it go wrong?
What questions need answering?
To hit the long-term goal, what is essential?
Turn assumptions and obstacles into questions.
Map out the problem
Sketch out customers first (different types) and then the end goal/what you want the customer to accomplish.
Fill in the steps to detail the flow and actions along the customer journey.
Interview experts & contacts
Ask professionals, experts, people in the industry and your network to see what their opinion is.
Consider the strategy of the project, what the voice of the customer could be and what could the product mechanics be.
Target a Minimum Viable Segment
Focus on one target customer and what one main event the product satisfies.
Does this line up with the long term goal(s)?

Renovation project - Going back to France
I wake up feeling quite deflated about our house buying experience in Spain and as John settles to watch the Manchester United football
match on his own, I decide to have a quick look at houses in France
again, I'm not sure why maybe I just want to make sure we are doing
the right thing, we love Spain and we want to stay here, but if we
can't find a house it will be impossible.
I have a quick look at Brittany and see some fantastic farmhouses,
but we have already done Brittany and the rain is still firmly at the
front of my mind, especially as we have been enjoying the constant
I switch the search and go for the entire of France and on the first
page of Greenacres see an amazing house with a wonderful history.
It is a village house with so much character and the price is
peanuts, it certainly has the wow factor (even though it is in a
terrible state) I show John and he thinks it has the same wow factor.
I google the area and it is in the far north east of France, it is
only 2 hour from Basel in Switzerland.
I e-mail the agent and wait for a reply.
We sit and talk about the options, our hearts are in Spain but
being realistic our head are back in France.
I can wait no more and ring the agent, we have a chat and I e-mail
some questions, he replies straight away. We talk some more and
decide we have to go and have a look.
Plans are put in place and we work out that at the price of the
house we can keep the rental in Spain and buy the house in France (if
it is as good as we hope) we will be able to live in France and
travel to Spain for 4 weeks at a time.
Could life be any better? Renovate in France again but knowing we
will be back to Spain for 4 weeks at a time.
We book a viewing and work out the time frame it is the 8th
August and we have friends coming to visit on the 20th.
So we book a viewing for the 12th and spend the rest of the
evening booking in hotels on the way.
The journey will take 3 days
there, stay for 2 nights and 3 days back, perfect.
Our only problem is that we had arranged to help friends tomorrow
with some furniture assembly so send them a quick message to say
sorry but we are heading to near Switzerland so can't make it, their
immediate response was, surely you knew you would be driving to
Well actually, until an hour ago, no we didn't!

What is next for USA softball?
10 comments:
- Bodeen said...
Just as I thought. The term "Disconnect" as stated by Larry Houthhoofd tells me there is a personal issue here, either by the AD(my guess) and the School Administrator. If there are NO legal issues then what could it be that would go against a coach who has done what likely will never be equaled. How dumb is that? Coach Houthhoofd should be retained, as it looks like at this point he wants to remain, the sooner the better. Second, if the parents of the players have NO issues with the coach, and they help fund the school and program, their input should be taken at face value. Third, if there is any proof that a personal issue is at the heart of this whole matter, that school administrator should be terminated immediately. There is NO room for that kind of decision making process in a public institution. All people who work for the USA school system are in a teaching position for the students. Work hard, be accountable, follow the rules and shoot for the moon. How hard is that? I am a former Huron County resident who has followed HC sports for many years. This is a travesty in all facets. Hire the man back.

Who is the AD, principal, superintendent, and administrator to the school? And, in the six years of coaching by Houthoofd, has any of their kids played? If this is the case, did any of them not get enough playing time? I wouldn't be surprised if politics ran into this, just like any other school in any other sport in this county.

Paul's concluding statement was right on. As I stated in an earlier post, the coach has clearly not done anything that crossed any boundaries, or put anyone in any emotional or physical danger, otherwise the school would have assumed liability by allowing him to continue to coach after they decided to not retain him. So the starting point to any discussion about this should be the clear fact that there is no compulsion to remove him. Therefore, given his record, the clear dedication he has shown, and the support of the players and their parents, the choice to do so appears to be rooted in personal animus. A personality conflict is not a sound rationale upon which to base a personnel decision, and does not indicate the level of professionalism one would expect from a Superintendent, who at the very least, signed off on using that criteria to make this decison. As for a disconnect, there is bound to be some when any coach is not a full-time school employee, but that has not appeared to hinder the program. I don't want to be conspiratorial, but several fans of other teams in Battle Creek were questioning whether he upset a family with influence, possibly by who he has allotted playing time to. I also am wondering if this is a union issue, and whether a full-time teacher wants the job. Hopefully, more information will be shared with the public at the next school board meeting.

There have always been rumblings of Coach Houthoofd recruiting players outside the school district. Could this have finally caught up with him? How many of the players drive in from the Bay City area and are there specifically to play softball with education being second? Bottom line is that if the administration wants him out, he's out. If it is true that he is recruiting players, all of the wins and championships could be taken away from USA. Could the MHSAA be putting heat on USA to clean up their act? Everything else is possible why not this?

"The kids and parents like me" sounds like insecurity to me. I am not sure but ussually when someone gets treated poorly, they ussually have treated others poorly. I wonder if this is the case
- June 22, 2011 at 8:17 PM
- Anonymous said...
The conjecture about recruiting is not unreasonable, but I am almost certain that it is is not the reason here. There really have only been two out of district players during Houthoofd's 6 years, Laleman in 2006 and Lemere in 2007 and 2008. Both transferred in from Garber, a neighboring district, so their transfer was not unusual. Frankly, I agree that softball was likely their primary, if not sole, purpose for attending USA. As for the MHSAA becoming involved, that is nonsense. They did an inquiry in the fall of 2006, in response to a complaint (likely from Garber), and found no rules violations. The athletic director was totally supportive of the transfers at that time, and I can't imagine that the MHSAA is worried about anything that happened several years ago, particularly when they accepted the USA findings. Also, USA has always been very aggressive in pursuing students through school of choice. They have erected billboards touting their programs, and boast that aroughly 10% of their population is attending under the auspices of school of choice . As the administration has been so blatantly aggressive in their pursuit of students, how and why would they hold that against Coach Houthoofd? If anything, they are probably upset with him for not bringing more out of district students in. Your reasoning is not illogical, I just don't think it is consistent with the facts here.

It is just me, or do the above six comments actually sound like they are coming from an adult brain? Finally, some intelligence is spewing on here and people are actually making clear and concise thought processes...not to mention I don't have to de-code the texting lingo that typically gives off the scent that a teenager is behind the typing.
So, for those of you contributing, thanks for making it easy on my eyes...and not giving me a headache.

Coach says his players love him...however gets written up for not going to a banquet because five girls wrote "unflattering" items on facebook. I wonder if the coach is telling the full truth

The coach got written up for not attending a banquet? As a part-time employee? That is one of the rationale's being used for not renewing his contract? Seriously? Were all full-time teachers, administrators, and staff required to attend? The more informaton that is being revealed, the less justified this decision appears.

Coach does not show up for a team awards banquet. Seems like this guys ego is huge. Its not about the coach its about the kids. poor example for kids. He should go

We have all enjoyed little bits of advice from our friends that have helped us get that little bit more out of our makeup. Getting the best performance from makeup is something that we all hope to achieve, we pay a lot of money for our products so hopefully our tips can help you.
By speaking to everyone in the office and searching high and low we believe we have some of the best makeup tips for you right here.
Pencil to Gel
Did you know that you can change your pencil eyeliner into a gel eyeliner? It is possible with the help of a lighter.
Simply hold the tip of the pencil over the lighter flame for a second before leaving it for between 10-15 seconds. You will then see the consistency change but always check the temperature before applying.
Easy, Smoky Eyes
To achieve a perfect, smoky eyelid draw a hashtag # in the outer corner of your eye then use the smudger on the other side of your eye liner to blend it. This will result in an almost professional result.
Revive Your Mascara
Did you know that mascara shouldn't be kept for over 3 months? This is because bacteria can grow and cause eye infections.
If, in that 3 months, your mascara does dry up you can use a couple of drops of saline solution to bring it back to life.
Get the best from your curler
To get the best performance from your eyelash curler all you need to do is heat it with your hairdryer then use while still warm (not too warm, you don't want to get burnt) to achieve a longer curl.
Glue without the mess
Gluing on fake eyelashes can give you a great look, unfortunately it can be pretty messy. Using a bobby pin or Kirby grip, you can gently and accurately apply the glue with minimal hassle.
Make the most of leftovers
If you have found the perfect eyeshadow but have some loose pigments, why not make the most of them and turn them into a great lip gloss. Simply mix them in a little petroleum jelly and you will have wonderful moist lips and a great shade.
Get the perfect Cupid's Bow
In order to get the perfect Cupid's Bow when applying your lipstick simply find a lip liner that is the same shade as your lipstick and draw an X. After you apply your lipstick you will notice the difference it makes.
We will be bringing you loads more great tips and hints so make sure you keep checking back to see what great tips we have that can save you money and leave you looking perfect.

The recent news of Berkshire Hathaway
For small gifts, cash is king. When you're making a gift of $50 or $100, it's easiest to just pay it right out -- it doesn't usually make any sense to jump through any special hoops. If, however, you're thinking about a larger gift -- perhaps $1,000 and up, although the threshold is up to you -- it makes sense to consider some alternatives that may give you some additional benefit.
If you make a gift to charity, you can generally deduct it if you itemize deductions on Schedule A of your annual tax form. Indeed, for many, tax benefits are a major factor in choosing how much to give. Yet there are also some other benefits available for certain types of charitable gifts. Let's discuss a few of these in more detail.
Giving stock
Say you were smart or lucky enough to buy shares of Dell
If you're charitably inclined, however, you may be able to avoid those capital gains. For instance, if you wanted to make a $2,500 gift, you could sell some of your stock to raise cash and then write a check to your chosen charity. But the stock sale would still generate a capital-gains tax for you.
The better way is to give shares directly to your charity. For most charities, federal tax law allows you to deduct the full current value of your shares just as if you had given cash. As an added benefit, because you don't sell the shares yourself, you don't owe any capital-gains tax. Charities are tax-exempt organizations, so if the charity decides to sell the shares, it also won't owe any tax. The net result is more money to you. The greater the capital gains are on the stock you give, the more money you save.
How do you actually make a gift of stock? If you hold your stock in electronic form at a brokerage firm, the best thing to do is call your brokerage company and find out what information it needs to transfer the shares. Because stock gifts have become popular, it's likely that your charity has a relationship with a broker who can receive the shares and then keep or sell them in accordance with the charity's investment-policy guidelines. Once you know what information your broker needs to make the transfer, a phone call to your charity should get you that information.
Charitable gift annuities
Most people don't think about charitable giving in terms of what they get back. But sometimes, your charity may offer merchandise to donors who give a specified amount, and that may be an enticement for you to give a little more to reach that level. Yet there are a number of slightly more complicated ways to make gifts to charity that involve getting more than just a small item in return. By structuring your gift in a way that takes advantage of these methods, you can not only fulfill your charitable wishes but also provide an income stream for yourself and your family.
In its simplest form, a charitable gift annuity is an agreement between you and your charity. You agree to give the charity a certain amount of money (or stock). In return, the charity agrees to make regular payments back to you or anyone you choose.
Getting into the details of the gift annuity reveals a significant amount of flexibility. You can choose whether you will receive payments monthly, quarterly, or annually. In determining the amount of the payments you receive, most charities use a payout rate that is based on your age; the older you are when you start receiving annuity payments, the higher the payout rate. You can choose either to take payments immediately or to defer them. You can have payments made just to you for the rest of your life, or to another person for the rest of that person's life, or to both of you until the last one of you passes. As long as your gift meets the rules for a gift annuity, you have a lot of leeway in defining how your particular annuity will work.
Even though you get something back from your charity, you are still generally entitled to a charitable deduction. Although the calculations are complex, the main idea is that you get a deduction for the amount of your gift to charity minus the value of the annuity payments that you will receive from the charity. The difference is your net gift.
Because charitable gift annuities involve a long-term commitment by your charity to you and your family, not all charities have the infrastructure in place to offer them. For charities that do offer gift annuities, most have minimum donation amounts to justify the additional work necessary to administer and manage them. However, more and more charities are seeing the benefit of getting a donation now while assisting their donors with their financial planning in the future.
If your charity has a fundraising coordinator or planned-gift advisor, you should talk to that person to find out whether the charity offers gift annuities. Even if it doesn't, you may still be able to work with a local community foundation to structure a gift that will benefit your chosen charity.

Everyone knows that regular maintenance and repairs, and even renovation, help keep a house looking and functioning better for a longer time. But that's not the only benefit you get from keeping your home in good condition. Here are some benefits you probably don't know.
Raises the Value of the Neighborhood
A community with houses falling apart may not be a good candidate for value appreciation. But when you maintain your home, it may help your neighborhood's house and land value go up, which is good news for you and your neighbors.
Makes People Feel Better
You may not be doing it to impress others, but deep inside you know that your exterior remodeling and renovation project in Minneapolis is successful when you hear others appreciating the work. As a matter of fact, when people pass by a house that looks great – lovely landscaping, newly renovated porch, newly remodeled driveway, new water feature – they tend to smile and admire the property. It's like looking at a rare and properly maintained car; it elicits some admiration and inspires happiness.
Helps the Environment
Maintaining your house or renovating it with modern materials and equipment can make it kinder to the environment. A better insulation, a more energy efficient heating or cooling equipment, the addition of solar panels, and repainting with an organic type of paint can reduce your home's carbon footprint.
Saves Money
Believe it or not, home maintenance and renovation helps you save money in the long run. This is especially true if your house is particularly old. Without proper maintenance or renovation, your property may start falling apart section by section. But when you take care of problems even before they happen, you can avoid having to pay more for emergency repairs on bigger issues.
It's always better to wake up in a house that's fully functional, beautiful, and energy efficient. Keep these ideas in mind the next time you start questioning the merits of maintenance or renovation.

The Award Winning Leader in Escorted Worldwide Rail Holidays
Meersburg, the "Burg on the lake", is located directly across from the town of Constance (Konstanz) on the shores of Lake Constance. The town comprises two distinct areas: the lower town ("Unterstadt") and uptown ("Oberstadt"), which are connected by stairs or a steep street.
The New Palace (Neues Schloss), is an elegant palace that once served as the residence palace of the prince-bishops of Constance. The palace faces the Schlossplatz, forming the southern boundary of the square. Construction began in 1712 and finished in 1740. A tour of the palace takes you into the living quarters and showcases the painting gallery and the Dornier Museum, which is dedicated to the history of aviation (the Lake Constance area was a hotbed of Zeppelin development).
The Old Palace (Altes Schloss) is a privately owned medieval castle that was a successful defender of Meersburg. The narrative of the self-guided tour is all about knights and weapons of war. The Bible Gallery includes exhibits of Bibles and of the Gutenburg Press, the first printing press that made copies of the Bible.
Other museums in Meersburg include Meersburg Tapestry Art Museum, the Droste Museum, the Town Museum, and a Viticulture Museum (wine is a very important part of the culture of Meersburg; the local "Weissherbst" wine grows on the northern slopes of Lake Constance). Like many of the local towns and villages, Meersburg is full of well-kept half-timbered houses and has interesting town gates.
Our base is in the pretty town of Konstanz at Lake Constance, a spectacular lake which is bordered by three countries. We discover mighty waterfalls, a medieval lakeside town and a beautiful garden island.… see more

A hotelier has been fined £1,320 for breaching food hygiene rules after council inspectors found dog hairs and grease scattered around his property's kitchen.
Michael Hoyle, 58, of the Residence Hotel on Hornby Road, Blackpool, admitted three offences when he appeared before Blackpool magistrates.
The court was told council officers found dog hairs, dirt and grease scattered around the hotel's kitchen, along with badly-maintained flooring and a wash basin without any hand soap, when they visited the premises last November.
The conviction came after Mr Hoyle had already been served with hygiene improvement notices in 2012.
Mr Hoyle said he was now in the process of refurbishing the kitchen and hoped to secure a good hygiene rating.
Coun Gillian Campbell, deputy leader of Blackpool Council, said: "This is another successful prosecution that shows food businesses how important it is to make sure they keep their kitchen hygienic and clean.
"In this case, Mr Hoyle had already been handed an improvement notice by our food control officers but when we revisited the premises it still wasn't up to scratch.
"That's not good enough and in those circumstances we will prosecute.
"If you run a business that serves food then you have both a legal and a moral duty to keep your kitchen clean and hygienic. There are no ifs, buts or shortcuts and anybody who tries to get away with breaking the law will be taken to court by us.
"In these cases it is worth reminding people that the vast majority of hotels and eateries in Blackpool are clean and up to a high standard – but if people fall foul of the hygiene laws then we not hesitate to take them to task."
Following the hearing, Mr Hoyle said he had been in the middle of renovations when the hygiene inspectors called.
He said: "On the day of the visit, I was part way through taking the floor up to replace it.
"The cooker had been glued down and it was glue, not grease, in the kitchen.
"We are trying to improve the business and are in the process of replacing the whole of the kitchen including all new units.
"We are going to ask the food hygiene officers to reinspect us and are hoping to get a five star rating."

Well, I think we might be able to put to rest the two concerns I brought up yesterday morning. Let's talk about them in the same order.
According to the Fox Sports Midwest broadcast of last night's game, Larry Walker feels as if he will be ready to play on Friday. What's more, the team said that if Tuesday's game had been in the playoffs, Larry would have been in the lineup. Having a 16 and a half game lead (which grew to 17 and a half yesterday) has its advantages.
Second – and more interesting to me – was Rick Ankiel's appearance last night. For the second night in a row, I stayed up way past my bedtime in the hopes of seeing Mr. Ankiel's first outing in more than three years. Personally, I was not disappointed. As you have probably read by now, he pitched a shutout inning, giving up 1 hit, and throwing 12 strikes among his 15 pitches. Considering that the ump had a very tight strike zone last night (for both teams), that feat might be even better than it sounds. The hit that Ankiel gave up barely made it out of the infield – and it was the only ball that did. According to the FSN radar gun, Ankiel hit 94 with one of his fastballs, and 92 with several others. His curve appeared to be "flatter" to me than it was the last time I saw him pitch on TV (2000), but I could be mistaken.
When Ankiel left the game after his inning, it was great to see the team waiting for him in the dugout, ready to give him high fives and welcome him back to the team (again.) I personally found it a little interesting that the first two guys waiting for him at the steps were Reggie Sanders and Larry Walker. While I am not convinced that team chemistry is vital to winning, it is great to see a group of guys that get along so well.
So, while I'm not ready to say that Ankiel is 100% cured – well, how can you not be excited? He's now had at least one successful outing in A, AA, AAA, and the majors. His fastball is back, and he's throwing strikes. If he can keep it up over the next 3+ weeks, he will give the Cardinals the luxury of a backup plan in case Kline doesn't get healthy, as well as a low cost option for the rotation next year in the event that Williams and/or Morris aren't back.

Jacaranda is a beautiful garden tree and its beauty enhances manifold when the tree is in full bloom. Though Jacaranda species are not native to Indian soil, they were introduced in gardens for their ornamental and aesthetic value. Now Jacaranda is part of the Indian medicinal system, with homoeopathy embracing it in its myriad preparations.
Jacaranda species are originally used in tribal medicine, but thanks to their medicinal values, particularly their ability to fight fungal and bacterial infections; the species are now increasingly adopted in Ayurveda and Unani formulations. The herbal market is flooded with formulations prepared from Jacaranda species, particularly Jacaranda mimosifolia.
Readymade water extracts of Jacaranda as well as its essence are available in herbal stores. Jacaranda essence is believed to work "extra-medicinally" too i.e. the lovely fragrance of Jacaranda flowers are said to turn the negative qualities in a person to positive ones. It is believed to work particularly on negative traits like
procrastination or postponing things without a valid reason.
Jacaranda species have been found to be effective for treatment of venereal diseases including syphilis and gonorrhoea. Application of Jacaranda extract on syphilitic sores helps them heal fast. It control the painful urination accompanied by pus in gonorrhoea patients. It also fights against epileptic seizures.
Home remedies
A teaspoon of juice obtained from the leaves of Jacaranda mimosifolia cures health problems associated with venereal diseases. The juice has to be taken at least three times a day. Take a few Jacaranda leaves, clean them in water, and obtain their juice using a mixer. Dilute the juice with water and drink it, a teaspoon thrice a day.
The leaf extract or juice can also be applied externally for relief from sores or ulcers caused by venereal diseases. The bark infusion is also used for the purpose. Take a little of the Jacaranda bark, clean it in water. Then put it in a glass of water, allow it for 10 hours. Throw away the bark, and the infusion can be used internally for relief from syphilitic sores.
The volatile oil obtained from Jacaranda leaves and bark has been found to be effective in the treatment of buboes (swelling in the lymph nodes in groin or underarm characterized by blisters). Buboes are caused by venereal diseases, besides tuberculosis.
Jacaranda water extract is capable of fighting E. coli, which causes gastroenteritis.

Snooping row: probe sets stage for a nasty Congress-BJP verbal war ahead of LS poll campaign
The BJP has made it clear that it will take the fight to the people and its leaders have already termed the probe as a witch-hunt and a desperate attempt by the Congress to divert attention from Modi's growing popularity.india Updated: Dec 27, 2013 13:45 IST
The Centre's move to probe the alleged snooping on a young woman by the Gujarat government barely four months before the Lok Sabha elections appears to have set the ball rolling for a no-holds-barred verbal war between the Congress and the BJP.
The Congress-led UPA government had been hinting about this probe ever since details of alleged stalking and phone-tapping were put in public domain by two investigative websites last month, which could bring the BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi in the line of fire and raise the political temperature during the winter.
The BJP has made it clear that it will take the fight to the people and its leaders have already termed the probe as a witch-hunt and a desperate attempt by the Congress to divert attention from Modi's growing popularity.
The BJP strategy, so far, has been to keep Modi away from reacting on the issue and it remains to be seen whether the party's prime ministerial candidate will himself break the silence or leave it to his party colleagues to take the fight to the Congress.
The BJP, buoyed by an impressive performance in the recently concluded assembly elections in four states, is preparing to further sharpen attack on the Congress on the corruption issue.
Read: Cabinet clears probe in Gujarat snooping, BJP fumes
The party has made clear its intention of not only targeting top Congress leaders over the issue but also their family members.
Congress sources said the party and government were not worried over a possible counter-attack from the BJP since the opposition party appeared to have exhausted its ammunition of allegations.
The Congress also seeks to put the BJP on the defensive on matters of personal liberty and human rights, given the alleged high degree of involvement of the Gujarat government in snooping on a young woman. The BJP's opposition to decriminalising gay sex — an issue that finds resonance among young voters — will also be taken up.
With both the key players re-working strategies on the election chessboard, the voters can expect an action-packed, often vitriolic, political drama in the coming days.

South of the Canyon, along the Southern Loop, the landscape turned into a postcard: a lazy river winding along a completely green plain full of wildlife.
The dim light of the early evening and the reflection of the sky in the mirror like water of the river created a beautiful image.
A bit further South, volcanic activity! Yellowstone is a place of contrasts!! Actually, all the area is a huge volcano which has erupted several times in history. Now, it is dormant, but geothermal activity is still very clear: boiling water in ponds, fumaroles, geysers...
The area is called Mud Volcano and it starts with something called the Sulphur Caldron: a pool of sizzling water rich in sulfur. As you can imagine, the smell is quite "intense".
Further down the road is the Mud Volcano area. The place is composed of many pools with sizzling water and smoke coming out of fumaroles.
Some animals, like this bison, come here to take in some warmth.
Water literally tries to jump off the pools! This sudden eruptions were an introduction for the geysers I would see the next day.
The land between these two pools was yellow colored. I guess partly because of sulfur, partly because of bacteria.
This is the so called Mud Volcano. The shape of it reminds of a small volcanic crater.
And this is the Dragon's Mouth Spring. From that opening, fumes come out and quite some noise is produced. It sounds like a dragon roaring and putting out some smoke.
Last general view of this place:
I continued driving South and found the beautiful lazy river again.
At some point, the river was not a river, but a lake. That was its source! One of the largest lakes in North America: Yellowstone Lake.
In the morning, in the Southern part of the park, I saw another beautiful lake: Lewis Lake.
The day ended with a picnic dinner by the lake. Quite a day of contrasts and surprises!

Washington DC
I have just spent a few days in Washington DC. I was very impressed and so glad to have had the opportunity to visit. I actually didn't go to the White House but only saw it from a distance. I was more interested in the Smithsonian Museums and the monuments to Jefferson, Lincoln and Washington. I found the monuments especially compelling after recently watching the TV series John Adams. Coming from New Zealand and only having a fairly basic understanding of American history I found the series wonderful. It was very well acted and really bought the personalities to life for me.
The Smithsonian Museums are fantastic. I am envious of the people who live in the area and can go and visit them whenever they wish. I was able to see some wonderful art in the many museum galleries and in the Newseum, a building that is a work of art itself.
I also checked out an art festival that was on over the weekend called "Arts on Foot". It was very disappointing. Most of the booths looked very amateurish in presentation and the art was much the same. There was a lot of crafty stuff and an abundance of jewelers, a couple of whom had very nice work. I thought that an art festival in downtown DC would be of a high standard so I was suprised to find otherwise. The tents provided by the city were good looking and the entry fees were very reasonable so all in all a great pity. The vendors in the show did look to be selling though so perhaps other people liked it more than me.
When will I learn?

Areas and Disciplines:
Lessons from Internationalization Initiatives in the Humanities and Social Sciences in Germany
During two conference days five panels made an inquiry into the current relationship between the social sciences and humanities on the one hand and global and area studies on the other.Three panels addressed the opening up of specific fields of knowledge (art, law, philology) to transregional perspectives. These discussions were framed by two panels that considered conceptual and institutional aspects with respect to transregional studies.
18 October 2013
Welcoming Addresses
Heinz Duchhardt, Max Weber Stiftung -Deutsche Geisteswissenschaftliche Institute im Ausland
Andreas Eckert, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin / Forum Transregionale Studien
Panel 1: Thinking Transregional Studies
Chair: Sebastian Conrad, Freie Universität Berlin / Forum Transregionale Studien
This panel stresses the need for reconfigurations in the systematic disciplines with a view to contemporary knowledge production. It problematizes the relationship between systematic disciplines and area studies. Furthermore, it suggests that we reconsider different conceptualizations of transregional or global studies by asking such questions as: How can the intellectual potential of global comparison and area-based knowledge be fruitfully integrated into disciplinary frameworks? Has the incorporation of such perspectives into humanities and social-science departments been sustainable? Which research topics and formats have proven particularly suited for international collaboration?
It is in this way that we will also try to trace how different conceptions of transregional or global studies have been institutionalized in the form of, for example, professorships, degree programs and research funding.
Panel Members:
- Engseng Ho, Duke University, Durham
- Dhruv Raina, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi
- Dominic Sachsenmaier, Jacobs University Bremen
- Birgit Schäbler, Universität Erfurt
Panel 2: Law as an Area and a Discipline
Chair: Alexandra Kemmerer, Wissenschaftskolleg zu Berlin / Rechtskulturen
Processes of internationalization in the practice of law have prompted demands for corresponding developments in the academic field. Due to the nature of the discipline's history and purpose, law departments are often attached to national perspectives in studying and teaching their subject.
This panel aims to address strategies for internationalizing the discipline at the level of research(ers) and teaching. It asks how legal scholars can participate in debates beyond national borders in a more visible manner. Furthermore, we would like to discuss in which way and to which extent an opening of the discipline to insights from neighboring fields such as history, anthropology, sociology, and area studies could beneficially contextualize disciplinary notions of law.
Panel Members:
- Thomas Duve, Max Planck Institut für europäische Rechtsgeschichte, Frankfurt a.M.
- Morag Goodwin, Tilburg University
- Christoph Möllers, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin / Rechtskulturen
- Sundhya Pahuja, University of Melbourne
Panel 3: Philology and Textual Practices
Chair: Friederike Pannewick, Philipps-Universität Marburg / Forum Transregionale Studien
This panel addresses the challenges for and the potential of philological traditions in the 21st century: How can we redefine the role of philology and other text-centered forms of scholarship whilst maintaining their specific character and long accumulated knowledge? How do potential rearrangements relate to the framework in which texts are studied, understood and taught?
This panel reflects on whether and how concepts such as "comparative literature," "world" or "global philology" can mediate between established academic traditions and present-day exigencies of knowledge production. Moreover, we would like to discuss how to reconcile the necessity of in-depth foreign-language training with the acquisition of comparative methodological skills.
Panel Members:
- Shamil Jeppie, University of Cape Town
- Stefan Leder, Orient-Institut Beirut
- Lydia Liu, Columbia University, New York
- Sheldon Pollock, Columbia University, New York
Preliminary Conclusions
Birgit Meyer, Universiteit Utrecht / Forum Transregionale Studien
19 October 2013
Panel 4: Art between History and Practice
Chair: Andreas Beyer, Deutsches Forum für Kunstgeschichte Paris
Art history as a discipline has developed within a particular European context, yet with a claim for universality.
This panel will be treating the conceptual and methodological re-framings that art history must undertake so as to free itself from the confines of traditional perspectives. It asks how art practices and concepts of the aesthetic from different areas of the world are interrelated; and, how such a pluralized vision of art history can be re-connected to the university and the museum.
Panel Memebers:
- Hannah Baader, Kunsthistorisches Institut Florenz / Art Histories and Aesthetic Practices
- Mohamed Kamal Elshahed, New York University / EUME Fellow 2013-14
- Monica Juneja, Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg
- Viola König, Ethnologisches Museum Berlin
Panel 5: Doing Transregional Studies
Chair: Andreas Eckert, Humboldt Universität zu Berlin / Forum Transregionale Studien
In this panel we would like to approach the lessons learned with a view to internationalizing curricula and faculties. It asks to which extent we have been successful in intertwining area studies and disciplines. This question also applies to the composition of research projects. Which future avenues for cross-border research and academic exchange appear promising? What lessons can be learned from incentives such as the Exzellenz Initiative or the area-study funding in Germany and other countries?
Panel Members:
- Ulrike Freitag, Zentrum Moderner Orient, Berlin
- Andreas Gestrich, Deutsches Historisches Institut London
- Bert Hoffmann, GIGA German Institute of Global and Area Studies, Hamburg
- Matthias Middell, Universität Leipzig

So, I have finished working several days in a row. Up until now, it's been busy. It is nice to have 48 hours away from the job. Having just worked a few nights in a row, there has not been enough time for K and I to be together. We have slipped in a little time, but working nights usually does not work well with other people's schedules to allow sharing togetherness. It is one of the curses of shift-work.
Friday morning, we had some nice time together before K had to go to a meeting. It was a GOOD time. It was time to renew our love farther from the distance we had felt before. We loved and cuddled. We talked and cooed. I nursed at her breasts. We enjoyed our coffee (Ahh, coffee, one of our special things together). Then we ran out of time!
It was time for K to get ready for her meeting; no more time left. I was HORNY! She was Horny. Later, while she was driving to said meeting, she commented to me that she was very wet. (big smile) Anyway, I was HORNY! I was lounging on the bed while she got ready to leave. I casually mentioned that she could leave me unlocked today, that it would be at least another day or so before we would see each other again, or even have the possibility to make love. I could have a little free time to myself (wink, wink) and then lock up later for her. Then, by the time we were able to get together again, plenty of time would have passed with me being locked up, that I would still be plenty desirous for her. She promptly said, "NO! You need to lock it up NOW!" (Uuuuunh!) "Okay….I will do it for you, my sweet GOYO," (GOYO stands for Goddess Of Your Orgasms) I replied. She said, "NOW!"
"Okay, okay," I said with a smile and promptly put on Hairclip. I handed her the keyring, her keyring, and she locked it in place. Then, as has become our custom, she kissed her dick and gave it a little quick teasing suck. Ya just gotta love that! She left. Wow, was I ever horny! I remained that way, without relief until the next day, Saturday. Then we had a good time.
And that will be the subject of the next post.

Saudi Arabia Hotels: Jeddah: Dammam: Riyadh: Al-Khobar
Saudi Hotels
Traveling as an Expat in KSA
Being in KSA is not like traveling around the States or Europe. You have to be careful to keep within their rules and not to offend anyone. This guide to being an expat in Saudi Arabia will help you.
Finding a Hotel in Saudi Arabia
Working in Saudi Arabia as a consultant I have had the opportunity to travel around a fair amount within the country, and have stayed at a number of Saudi Arabia Hotels in the cities of Riyadh, Jeddah and Dammam / Al-Khobar.
During these trips around Saudi Arabia I have had the opportunity (in fact the need) to stay at a number of different Saudi Arabian hotels and rented apartments as well as running training courses and meetings using hotel facilities.
There are many international hotels around the kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). Hilton, Sheratton, Soffitel, Movenpick, and the like to name just a few. The bigger hotels all being international chains not "local" hotels. There are a few local hotels in Saudi Arabia but these are generally of the smaller variety.
Standard of Hotel Accommodation in Saudi Arabia
Accommodation in Saudi Arabia Hotels is generally of high standard, very similar to what you would expect in the west in any of their other branches. Beds are comfortable, sheets are clean, Televisions work, and everything is well maintained. I have stayed at only three of the smaller locally run hotels, one was very ornate and extremely "posh". Despite this it was cheaper than the nearby large "chains". Another was very old and looked it, although it was once probably very ornate it was beginning to look tired and was in need of renovation, both of these however were clean and the service excellent.
The third hotel however in Riyadh really surprised me, it was very much of the budget variety and showed it! The exterior and lobby were fine but the rooms and corridors were in urgent need of attention. The really surprising thing in this hotel was that you could actually get from the underground car park direct to where the rooms were without going through the lobby, therefore if you had wanted to smuggle a woman direct to your room without being observed this was possible! (So if you are dating girls in Saudi Arabia and you need to know the name of this hotel just drop me an email!)
Riyadh Hotel tour
Hotel food in Saudi Arabia
Saudi Arabian Hotel food is excellent although pricey when compared to what you can get outside. I have never had the need to complain about food in any hotels I have stayed at in Saudi Arabia, and I am a fussy eater.
Most Saudi hotels have a buffet, a vast buffet of different foods. Typically a large salad bar as the Saudis will start a meal with a salad. A choice of soups and different breads. Then the main courses which will be everything from Arabic stews to Italian Pastas with vegetables, potatoes, rice and everything you could possibly want. The Saudis love to eat, and meals are generally huge! I am a big eater, over six feet tall and weigh 100kg, but many of the Saudis will out eat me several times over, and many although shorter must weigh twice what I do!
The sweets are amazing, there is always a vast array of sickly sweet foods for desert, something that I never ever eat, but my wife loves! The selection is always mouthwatering, this is an area that the Saudis love, they have a very sweet tooth. This is probably why diabetes is such a major problem here in the kingdom.
In my first couple of months in the kingdom I
spent a lot of time with the buffets and managed to put on over 5kg, beware! Saudi Arabian Hotel food is just too good in most hotels, I need a diet!
Hotel Service in Saudi Arabia
Arabic hotel Service, if fantastic, the staff being in many cases over-helpful, looking for a tip! They are not overly well paid and a small tip makes a big difference to them so they go out of their way to smile and be as friendly as they possible can be.
I tend to find the "front desk" slow, especially if staffed by Saudis, make sure you leave an extra 5 minutes for check out as there can be a lot of individual pieces of paper to be printed out and signed!
Please do tip the staff, their wages are very low and their work hard and the hours long and most have no "off days"!
Jeddah Cornice
Seafront Hotels Jeddah and Al-Khobar
Location wise, the main hotels in Jeddah and Al-Khobar are on the Cornice (seafront) and the views are terrific. I would recommend going for a walk along the sea front in the evening as long as the sun has gone down and the temperature has dropped. But it can still be in the 40's (over 105 degrees Fahrenheit plus) so take water and expect to sweat!
I have stupidly tried to walk the seafront in daytime with a colleague, having walked a couple of kilometers to the point that neither of us could walk much further, had no water and the taxi's that had been annoying us by honking their horns at us thinking we needed a ride were nowhere to be seen!
Jeddah Hotels
Many Hotels Located in this Area with good Sea Views
Hotel Security in Saudi Arabia
If you are a westerner staying in one of the main hotels in Saudi Arabia then you should be quite safe. Much like the western compounds around the Kingdom, they are often approached through concrete block slalom courses and have the usual Saudi National Guardsman on patrol with automatic weapons to protect the guests.
The larger hotels having military vehicles gaurding the entrances as in the Photograph oposite of the Hilton Hotel in Jeddah.
During a recent conference here in Jeddah regarding oil attended by many world leaders and other important guests the roads around the hotels were filled with armored vehicles and there were also gun boats patrolling the nearby shoreline. Very unnerving!

Tour of Jeddah
Hotel Villas in Saudi Arabia
In Jeddah there are a couple of Hotels such as the Movenpick that instead of the traditional hotel rooms have small private villas with individual swimming pools and access to the sea. These are excellent although a little more pricey than the standard hotel rooms. Peak season a single bedroom villa costing around 2,300SAR, 2 bedroom 4,500SAR ($600 - $1200) per night! This is against rates of around 500 – 1000SAR at the other hotels ($130 - $270).
Al-Khobar Hotels
Saudi Beach Resorts instead of Hotels
On the edges of Jeddah however are a number of beach resorts which you can use as an alternative to the Saudi hotels, these have villas for rent within them that are typically priced in the same range as a single hotel room, plus you have access to all of the pools and the beach.
These range from downright seedy to very posh, the price changing accordingly. The rules within these Saudi resorts changing depending on the nationalities they are aiming it at. The more expensive ones typically having western type attitudes towards dress to the extent that there are ladies bathing in skimpy bikinis on the beach, a great place to visit if you have spent a few months only seeing women dressed as ninjas!
However these resorts are family only! As a single man it is very difficult (but not impossible I might add) to get access to these.
Private Walled Vilas with Pools
Private Vilas with Pools instead of Hotels
You can also find for hire small walled villas with swimming pools which can be used as alternatives to staying in a Saudi Arabian hotel.. These are totally private once inside and the rules as to who can hire are very much down to the owner. These are often used for "singles" parties, but the police here in Saudi Arabia know this! This usually means that the police set up road blocks later in the evening to deter people who are unmarried from going to these places (I have never heard of an un-announced raid on any premises as these are generally used by families!)
These vary in quality a huge amount, some are very badly maintained and a health and safety nightmare, check the place carefully before you rent, be especially wary of the power outlets etc!
The police aspect on approaching these areas normally means that most women will be reluctant to go with you, and if you are in the company of women who are "illegal" with no iqama (residency visa) looking to supplement their income they will be very reluctant to go with you. However a word to the wise, the roadblocks do not normally get set up until after 9pm!
Staying in Saudi Arabia
Where ever you decide to stay it is vital that you stay within the many rules that there are within Saudi Arabia. Just because you are in a hotel does not mean you can dress and behave like a westerner. This Saudi Expat Guide will help to ensure that you don't get caught out doing anything you shouldn't when you are there.

Nice Information u say, this information help me to find
Hotels in Riyadh with instant confirmation
dear sir, i would like to ask that these saudi hotels uses the xray baggage scanner machines for inspection ?
and does they follow securty norms in hotels?
In the current climate of credit crunch and economic turmoil in the West, Saudi is a great place to live. It is a great haven to make and save tax free Riyals.I moved from the UK almost a year ago and I must say, I am enjoying my life here.I save enough and I feel I can afford most things that i couldn't before. Life is more posh-- luxurious hotels,excellent but cheap dining, lot of shopping (most international brands are available), buisness class flights etc. Sunshine everyday !!!. So what are you waiting for.. catch your next flight.
my mobile number 03468486384
Great Hub. Thanks for discussing us.
I totally found this interesting. Thanks for sharing it.
Saudi is like a different world and I've heard that women there cant get out without the abaya... so is it true .. as in every woman has to wear a veil if she wants to go out??
More interesting facts about Saudi Arabia for us to consume! Great coverage of the hotels we could use if we ever make the trip.
Very interesting on hotels in Saudi Arabia. The cost sounds very high but I guess that is compensated by the expat salaries. Each of your Saudi hubs does a great job of adding a little tidbit about the people - great stuff.
Fascinating article about Saudi Arabia, thank you.
The country has been in the news a lot here with many foreigners and holiday makers getting into trouble with the strict laws there.
I look forward to reading more about your life in this country
I am sure the experience in Saudi Arabia must be very different for men than for women. Being a woman, I am very curious about how comfortable I would be, and how safe. Can you comment on that?
I find the injection of trivia about the Saudi's very interesting. Like I would have never thought that they suffered a high rate of diabetes; we always asume in the west that we are the only 'big' eaters of sweets, giving us (apparently equal to or lesser than)our girthy waist-lines. Informative and engaging hub Leanman.

Didier - Note that 'Manager' does not automatically give you "full authorization". It is only a convention that Manager often has all permissions. This is important, because in Zope 2.2, you can't give a proxy role unless you have *that role* yourself. For example, you can't give the proxy role "Editor" to a DTMLMethod unless you have it yourself (this is true even if you have the "Manager" role). The quick fix here is that you need to give yourself the roles you want to set as proxy roles, and then you will be allowed to set them.

Versatile pipe fittings
One SharkBite fitting, four pipe options – connect to multiple pipe fittings including: Copper to PEX pipe, Copper to Carbon Steel pipe, PEX to Polybutylene. Basically any combination of these four pipe materials can be connected together using SharkBite fittings. Now there is no need to purchase, store or carry a different array of fittings.
The plumbing solution for any installation.
Contractors, specifiers, architects and installers alike can all experience the benefits SharkBite offers when specifying and using the SharkBite range of highly innovative and technologically advanced fittings, designed to meet the demands of both modern day residential and commercial hot and cold water systems.
How SharkBite works
The sharp stainless steel teeth of the internal grab ring bite into the pipe once pushed into the fitting, gripping it tightly and never letting go. The specially formulated material of the o-ring compresses to create a perfect watertight seal. A SharkBite demount tool can be used to remove a fitting and it is immediately reusable, making SharkBite the true modern plumbing solution.
With no solder, flux or heat required, SharkBite is ideal for use in listed buildings or sites where flamed jointing is not permitted. Wet joints are as easy to make as dry – meaning repairs can be made in seconds!

Whose wedding is it anyway? Sometimes a member of the bridal party can get a little confused on this point. Here, real brides reveal how they dealt with a bad bridesmaid or maid of honor.
The Bridesmaid Who Desperately Wanted to Be a Bride
When Amy invited Tina to be a bridesmaid, she was aware her long time friend was unhappily single. However, Amy didn't expect this unhappiness would cause Tina to act out in ways that threatened to take the focus off the bride.
Amy says ruefully, "Tina rarely did anything connected to wedding planning because she was obsessed with finding a date. When the bridal party went dress shopping, Tina insisted on trying on wedding dresses."
See more: Topics You Should (and Shouldn't) Discuss with Your Friends Once You Get Married
The capper came during Tina's toast to the happy couple as she drunkenly shared how she'd always had a secret crush on the groom! Amy says, "In a panic I gestured to the band to start playing so we could get on the dance floor... I still loved my wedding, but my friendship with Tina ended with that toast!"
The High-Maintenance Maid-of-Honor
In the tradition of many engaged women, Stephanie asked her sister to be her maid of honor... despite the two having a dysfunctional relationship. Stephanie shares, "I did it mainly to make my mother happy. But Ann was always insecure and jealous so it was a nightmare choice."
Stephanie dealt with her pushy sister as best as she could, leaning on her wedding planner to do much of the heavy lifting. Stephanie says, "Ann was so high maintenance that on my wedding day one of the wedding planner's assistants had to babysit her — fixing Ann's makeup every 20 minutes, fetching her hors d'oeuvres...! Before I left for my honeymoon I warned my mother never to ask me to do anything for Ann again! Luckily mom agreed."
The Maid of Honor Who Didn't Know When to Zip Her Lip
Despite knowing her childhood buddy Susan was a bit of a drama queen, Barb still popped the question: "Will you be my maid of honor?"
It was a question she lived to regret. Barb recalls, "We wanted a laid back, small wedding so told Susan and Tom, the best man, they could wear whatever they wanted."
What felt comfortable to Tom was a suit. Susan flipped out, insisting Barb force her fiancé to make the best man to wear a tux. Barb refused but said Susan could still wear a dress if that was her choice. Susan's response was to insist the marriage wouldn't last since Barb couldn't even stand up to her fiancé!
Barb says, "I had a talk with her about this. After nine years of friendship I knew what I was getting into with Susan as maid of honor."
The take-home from these tales of nuttiness is to think very carefully before you ask someone to take on the tasks associated with being in the bridal party. And if it's not working out, it's your right to ask the crazy-making friend to step down and just be a guest. It's your wedding, and you and your groom are the ones whose needs count!
