Re: What makes Aikido aikido (to you)?
Mark Murray
The art of blending and taking balance can be applied to at least Judo, if not others. How does that make aikido, Aikido?
Well, I do know of those who consider the only meaningful difference to be maai.
Mark Murray
What if aiki, as appropriate fitting, is fitting the partner's attack to you, rather than the other way around? Of being able to manage your body appropriately and in a way that the partner's energy of attack is automatically matched.
Is there a difference? I think how one achieves "appropriate fitting" might be or might not be a distinguishing feature of aikido. How's that for noncommital? I think the topic of how to appropriately fit is an interesting one, and in a certain sense, whatever works is the right answer.
Mark Murray
There comes two important aspects to the above. How is that accomplished? In this, I think is where Aikido diverges from Daito ryu. Ueshiba Morihei adapted to a more spiritual-based training regimen and how he accomplished his aiki was different than other student's of Takeda. The second part is what do you do after the above is accomplished. Again, this distinguishes Aikido from other arts in that it works to appropriately match an attack and then, for lack of a better word(s), let go. As opposed to break/kill of jujutsu and other arts.
The ramifications are interesting, but I just don't know enough to have a strong opinion on these historical issues. While I'm very curious, enough to have followed most of the published writings and online speculation for almost 10 years, I still don't feel like I have enough information to express a very meaningful opinion beyond "I don't know", and I don't think anyone else does either (for sure), although they might have a stronger opinion than I do.
Mark Murray
Ueshiba Morihei wasn't a pacifist. Aikido was a martial art to him. In regards to my teacher's teachings, yes, I do agree with you.
But, even when looking to the giants and following our teachers, we still must find our own way. And here, I think, one must have the skill necessary to be able to choose what level harm is involved in Aikido. I'm not there yet. One day, I will be close and I can revisit these ideals. Until then, I follow those who are closer.
I'm not really there yet either, except that.. on occasion, I have had encounters where I realized that even with my miniscule level of skill and understanding, I could completely dominate others in certain situations, and so the choice was there, ready or not.
Mark Murray
In looking at how Ueshiba Morihei viewed his students when he lived, how can we say that it isn't Aikido? Tomiki, Shioda, etc all started their own schools and for the most part, were allowed to continue. I think the argument isn't are they Aikido, but are they the founder's Aikido. In which case, one can do aikido in any number of variations. But, to do the founder's Aikido ... no, that is much harder and certainly a much narrower vision.
I think here, you are hitting a core issue. I don't think that anyone can do the founder's aikido. It's gone, not even accurately recorded for a real reference, mere momentary glimpses offered for us to explore it ourselves.
Appeals to precisely what he did and what he said are diffcult to make relevant since another person can offer counter statements and actions to support their own viewpoint. Only a comprehensive study can really reveal his intent to us, and few are able to entirely agree with the somewhat detailed results offered already.
This is no different really than what has happened in religion, with Jesus Christ, with Mohammed, with Buddha, and numerous other prominent figures. Even with orthodox groups offering the accepted interpretations, there are many who do not agree.
Mark Murray
I agree. It then becomes the question, just what are the principles?
Oh, you move quick.
I think that's what we're exploring in this thread, neh? Some of it. It's rather difficult to explore the physical principles of kuzushi, tskuri, kake, kokyu, etc. online, as we've seen evident in other threads. You have to feel things to begin to understand them.
Mark Murray
LOL, you should see the recent workouts I've been trying to do. While not exactly "physically" intense, they are physically intense. And intellectually, emotionally, psychologically. I try to keep the solo exercises slow. And then when I do partner training, I keep it slow because I can't do anything dynamically without losing some part of structure. It's intense and rarely does anyone fall down. It's frustrating at times, irritating at others. I fail and fail again. I put the "me" in mediocre for sure.
But, I am trying to put the "aiki" into my training so that one day, I will be able to understand the "do" aspect of aikido.
This sounds exquisitely familiar, the training and the partner practices. The greater my (perceived) comprehension grows, the more mediocre I perceive my skill set, physically and mentally.
Mark Murray
And then, the most important question arises: Do I want to do Ueshiba Morihei's Aikido? Or do as his students did, and find my own way?
Is M Ueshiba's aikido even relevant to todays practictioner? Maybe and maybe not. We each determine that for ourselves, and I believe that ultimately, it must adapt to remain relevant to those who practice, even as we try to maintain the principles we perceive to be the core of the teaching.
I think, as perhaps described Mr. Goldsbury's recent series of articles, that M. Ueshiba's aikido died with him, and the best we can do is find our own way, using his and our own teachers examples as signposts along the way.

Parking charges will finally come into force at Seaton Carew tomorow - more than a month later than planned.
Hartlepool Council had intended to introduce the charges from the start of April but a delay in the delivery of 15 new pay and display ticket machines meant the scheme had to be put on hold.
The supplier was unable to meet its original timescale due to the introduction of a new £1 coin which left it facing a huge backlog of work in respect of adapting existing pay and display ticket machines up and down the country.
The charges at Seaton Carew, which will apply in the Coronation Drive, Rocket House and Coach Park car parks, will be £1 for up to 2 hours, £1.50 for up to 4 hours and £2 for all day.
They are being introduced on an experimental basis and are part of a Parking Plan which aims to address a range of traffic issues - including parking on pavements and on the chevrons in the centre of the road on The Front - that affect businesses and people's safe enjoyment of Seaton Carew.
The Parking Plan also includes resident-only and business parking permit schemes and a clock disc system that limits parking in the car park within Seaton Park to 1 hour.
A series of public consultation meetings will be held over the summer ahead of a review of the Parking Plan at the end of October.
All are welcome and views expressed at these meetings will be fed into the review which will determine the permanent arrangements.
The first meeting will take place on Wednesday May 10 from 2-6pm at Seaton Carew Social Club and Institute in Station Lane.
Plans to start charging were approved at a meeting of Hartlepool Borough Council's Neighbourhood Services Committee in February, despite objections from business and residents.
Organisers of a petition against the charges accused the council of ignoring the wishes of more than 3,500 people who signed it.
Speaking after the meeting, petition organiser Steve Gooderham said: "I feel really angry.
"I think that the council have totally disregarded and treated with contempt the wishes of three and a half thousand people."
But committee chairman Coun Marjorie James said the charges were 'minimal' and would help address problem parking: "We do want people to come as tourists to Seaton Carew and encourage businesses. They won't come if it is not safe to cross the road."

Mindee and Jerry gladly welcome Tayden Jeremy Chidester!
We already love him SO much and can't believe he hasn't been in our lives forever! It feels like we have known him forever!
Things are going really well! I feel great, Jerry is in heaven, and even Bentley has welcomed the baby! He is actually very gentle with him. Tayden makes any noise and Bentley is very concerned and tries to make sure everything is ok!
Tayden was born 7/11/2009 ant 12:48 midnight! After a VERY long day of contractions. We went to the hospital early friday morning! He weighed 7Ibs 6oz and was 21.5 inches long.
Jerry got to be a BIG part of the delivery. He got to "glove and suit up". It was a great experience for him! He was the first to hold Tayden! It was really special! Tayden was under a lot of stress so after the cord was cut they had to rush him over to NICU. They had a little area set up in the room, and after they got everything worked out, then I got to hold him!
I already LOVE being a mom! Especially because Tayden slept really well last night...so tomorrow I might feel differently! Haha!
Thank you everyone for your love and support! It has meant SO much to Jerry and I!

This article has been submitted by Ashika Daga for the CLATGyan Blog Post Writing Competition. If you think this article is a good read, 'Like' this article on Facebook (the button is at the bottom of this piece) or post a comment using the 'comments' section below.
Before you start reading this, all I want to say is that, this piece is in due respect to all the NLUites. It is nothing against you, your capabilities or anything in that respect. It is just a thought that I wanted to depict on paper.
"Aree beta, how are you? I met you after so many days. So what are you doing these days?
"Aunty, I am in College. I am a law student."
"Law. That sounds great. This field is very popular now. Even science students are giving the exam these days. You have this Clat and all na? So which NLU?"
"Aunty I am in ***********. (I say the name of a private institution)",
"Okay, that sidey one? I mean beta Law means Nlu. What else? There are thousands like those…"
..And I stand there like an idiot with a blank face and no explanation, feeling like a loser. Rather how many of us actually have an answer to that?
I don't blame her. Today if we practically face the world, and people who even know a bit about the entire law thing in India, their face turn sultry as soon as you tell them that you are not from any "NLU". This just one tag makes it so prestigious for you. This one thing changes everything drastically. The new trend bluntly says that if you are from any private institution and even if you are better off than a NLU guy the fact is you will still be considered behind them, or should I say far behind them.
Competitive exams, results, admissions and then boom…we feel like settled. One result and our career is like nicely knitted. Is that the end of all our worries? The truth is that things do not settle that easily. This is the point wherefrom the main things actually start. NLU/ non NLU? This tagline follows you until and unless you end up with a good job. Your internships, your jobs, all depends upon this tag. (Personal experience, I can say)
Now let us analyze the NLU tag or should I say the picture perfect law student tag. (Again I say, please don't take it personally) So all that judges your capabilities in this field is the competitive exam paper which is like out of syllabus or do I say that it is that exam, the papers of which are distributed among students illegally before the exam actually commences, to give them a superior stand over the others? Do these facts decide what your capabilities are? Or do I say that it is actually the 5 year course when you actually learn what LAW prima facie is, that decides your brilliancy, splendor and your stand??
I m not saying that private law school students are way better off from the Nlu's or that NLUites are far better than the others. Exceptions are always there. All I want to say is that, it completely depends upon you, how you make it large. You remain a loser or you grab every opportunity that comes your way. I cannot change the mental capacities of people. Neither can you. Clat results will be out soon and many of you might find yourselves out of place. Many of you will face what I do. But then all that I can say is that trust yourself. Let people talk. At the end of the day what matters is that, what you are after 5 years. No college is going to feed you. If you are good, the college is good. So it completely reckons upon you whether you want to be a phoenix or brood over what is already done.
And to my juniors, who keep posting their comments in Facebook groups regarding colleges even before joining them (with due respect) :
Don't go by the environment, it changes..All that is constant is you.
May the force be with you J

Construction starts on Whole Foods, Sports Authority, more in Altamonte Springs
from the Orlando Business Journal
Kimco Realty Corp. has broken ground on Central Florida's newest Whole Foods Market, as part of the reconfiguration of an existing shopping center near the Altamonte Mall.
Work has started on the Renaissance Centre retail complex off State Road 436, which is set to include a new 40,000-square-foot Whole Foods store and a new 38,292-square-foot Sports Authority, according to a site plan. Other new tenants coming to the complex will include a 10,000-square-foot Ulta beauty store, a 3,800-square-foot Carter's childrens clothing store and a 1,604-square-foot Anthony's Pizza, the site plan showed.
The Renaissance Centre has been going through a renaissance of its own in recent years, relocating several existing tenants into other new spaces to accommodate the latest tenants. It appears a former parking garage in the back of the complex also will be taken down to add the newer stores.
Representatives from Kimco (NYSE: KIM) were not immediately available for comment. But Altamonte Springs City Manager Frank Martz said the Whole Foods is a great addition to the city.
"That's going to be a great tenant for us," Martz said. "Having a Whole Foods in Altamonte Springs further solidifies that, regionally, we are a retail lifestyle destination."
The Whole Foods Market was announced in 2012, as previously reported by OBJ. It was one of several new niche grocers then in the works in the region, many of which have since opened, including The Fresh Market and Trader Joe's.
Here's a look at Kimco's site plan for Renaissance Centre.

An altercation broke out at a bar Jacksonville Jaguars' running back Maurice Jones-Drew was at, however the star rusher was not involved in the incident and has not been charged with battery. Earlier today it was reported by TMZ, take that for what it's worth, that he had been charged for his involvement in the fight.
According to NFL.com's Ian Rapaport a second police report emerged exonerating him from any charges. Local police issued the following statement when asked about the events that transpired:
"The St. Augustine Police Department has taken a notarized statement of Misdemeanor Battery against Jacksonville Jaguar player Maurice Jones-Drew that stemmed from an altercation at the Conch House on Sunday, May 26, 2013. Jones-Drew has not been charged with any crime and maintains his innocence. He is cooperating fully with our investigation."
This is a stark change from the original police report. The original report was where the story broke that Maurice Jones-Drew had been charged with battery. The description of the events from the first police report, and the were as follows;
"According to the police report, witnesses say … MJD's buddy was told by security to stop touching a young female. The buddy allegedly "slapped" a security guard on his chest … and a melee ensued. One of the security guards reportedly put MJD's friend in a headlock to stop the fight … and that's when MJD stepped in and clocked the guard."
Agent Adisa Bakari has repeatedly said that his client was innocent and in no way involved in the altercation. He insisted throughout the day that Maurice Jones-Drew would not be charged with battery, and appears to be correct. He has stated multiple times today that his client conducted himself properly and left the establishment as soon as he noticed what was going on.
The security guard that the former UCLA running back allegedly punched did suffer contusions and bone bruise that night, so evidently something happened. An investigation by the NFL is likely to follow, and if it is discovered that the Jaguars' All-pro was in any way involved in the events leading up to or during the fight, a suspension is not out of question.
Assuming that Maurice Jones-Drew wasn't involved with the incident because of his not being charged with battery, he is looking to rebound from an injury riddled season last year and reemerge as one of the NFL's marquee backs. At only 28 years old, he likely has several quality years left in the tank and should be an impact player once again. The injury that derailed his season last year was a lisfranc injury, one that heals but carries with it a lingering pain.
Jacksonville needs for Jones-Drew to be back to his former self this season if it has any hopes of winning games. Blaine Gabbert has struggled mightily to this point in his career, and as a result the offense depends heavily on its rushing attack. When healthy Jones-Drew has handled some of the highest carry totals in the league as a result of the rest of his offense being inept.

Saudi Arabia to host the 2nd CSR Summit supported by the Jeddah Chamber of Commerce and Industry
CSR Saudi Arabia 2014 will focus on sustainability of social responsibility activities that drive community development and empower the Kingdom's youth
Jeddah, October 2014: Following the outstanding success of last year's event, Saudi Arabia will again host the CSR Forum to be held 24- 26 November 2014 at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, Jeddah. The event this year is supported by the Jeddah Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
CSR Saudi Arabia 2014 will gather leading representatives of corporate organizations, ministries and other government bodies, NGOs, foundations, universities and SMEs from across the Kingdom and around the world, who will discuss topics including how to embed corporate and social sustainability into CSR programmes to drive community development, strengthen education delivery and empower the Kingdom's youth. Employment generation and the development of women are other key topics on the agenda.
"We are very pleased to bring the CSR Summit to Saudi Arabia for the second year in a row, recognizing the Kingdom's importance as the biggest market in the GCC and its status as a world class host of major international events," said, Hoda Abdelhay, Conference Director at Informa, the organizer of CSR Saudi 2014.
"This year, Saudi youth takes centre stage at the summit since they represent the future of the nation where more than 60% of the population is under the age of 30. The brightest young talents have a key role to play in the sustainable development of social responsibility in the Kingdom and the summit represents a platform for their engagement and a unique opportunity for their voices to be heard."
Packed with three days of interactive learning and stakeholder networking, the agenda of the summit includes Speed Networking, CSR Focus Roundtables, CSR Workshops and Panel Debates. A highlight of the agenda is The Rising Star, a roundtable discussion dedicated to empowering the leaders of tomorrow to take part in shaping the kingdom's future generation
New this year will be the CSR Saudi Arabia Awards which recognize the best among the Kingdom's CSR community. Led by an expert panel of multi-stakeholders ranging from NGOs and corporates to universities and internationals, the final winner of the awards will be chosen by the attendees.
The panel of speakers will include some of the Kingdom's most distinguished CSR practitioners along with other experts from regional and global organizations. Saudi government officials will also play a leading role including Dr. Mohammad Abdulaziz Al-Ohali, Deputy Minister for Educational Affairs at the Ministry of Higher Education, who will deliver the Government Dignitary Keynote Address.
For the second year running the headline sponsor of CSR Saudi Arabia 2014 is the Zahid Group, whose VP for Group Affairs Amr Khashoggi commented on the importance of educating and empowering Saudi youth to become the leaders of tomorrow by elevating their awareness of social responsibility and building their expertise to develop and implement sustainable CSR programmes that contribute to the Kingdom's social and economic advancement.
"Corporate Social Responsibility is an integral part of our business activities. Zahid Group focuses on safety, care for the environment, and job creation," said Mr. Khashoggi. "With our investments, we look at areas where we can have a positive impact on the community. We always strive to attract a pool of exceptionally talented Saudis of both genders and persons with disability, and to provide them with extensive training that gives them tools for career development, including safety and care for the environment. Furthermore, we work with specific communities to support and promote the next generation, whether it be through the establishment of parks or by sponsoring local sports teams.
"We believe our Corporate Social Responsibility will create a long-term social and environmental impact. For any Corporate Social Responsibility program to succeed, it must have a continuous positive impact on the community, and for that to happen, CSR has to be engrained in the corporate culture, as it is at Zahid Group. We further believe that the effectiveness of our CSR programs is directly correlated to our bottom line, hence it is sustainable."
Other companies supporting CSR Arabia 2014 are BUPA Arabia (Platinum Sponsor), CPC (Platinum Sponsor), Al Majdouie Motors (Gold Sponsor), Boeing (Bronze Sponsor), Microsoft (Technology Sponsor) and Saudi Investment Bank (Delegate Chair & Lunch Sponsor). TRACCS public relations agency is again appointed as Official PR Partner.
CSR Saudi Arabia 2014 will conclude on November 26th with two post-summit workshops covering how to effectively measure the impact and performance of CSR initiatives and programmes; and understanding CSR strategy and integrating sustainability reporting as part of an organizational framework

Setup Fee in Shared Web Hosting
Our company does not charge anything over the cost of the Linux shared web hosting plan that you pick, therefore you will not be required to pay any sort of set-up fees or any other fees different from what you've already seen on the main page. We believe that being honest with our customers is of crucial importance for making a long-lasting business relationship, that being said we will never ask you to pay concealed charges of any type, especially for something that's nearly completely automatic and usually requires a few minutes to be done by our system. You won't pay installation costs even when you buy numerous accounts and they will all be entirely active without delay, so that you can start creating your websites. The overall amount that you'll have to pay for any of our plans is the same that you will find on our home page.
Setup Fee in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you get a semi-dedicated server package from our company, you will pay only the monthly fee that is already displayed on our web site. Your account will be made on our servers and we'll activate it in a couple of minutes without additional charge. This shall be valid for each and every monthly payment and irrespective of the total number of accounts that you acquire. It's our belief that it is not reasonable to charge extra money for an action that we have almost fully computerized, therefore you will never see any sort of setup costs or another concealed fees. Due to this fact, the rates which are listed on our main page, on the payment page as well as on your bank statement will be identical.
Setup Fee in VPS Servers

The renewal charges for the following months are exactly the same as the initial registration cost. We are aware that getting one more client that puts his / her trust in us is more important than receiving a small one-time charge, that's why if you obtain a virtual server from us, you will never have any hidden fees.
Setup Fee in Dedicated Servers
When you obtain a dedicated server from our company, we shall set up your machine free of charge. The fee that you will find and pay is identical on our website, on the payment page as well as on your bank statement, plus the amount you will pay through the registration is the same as the one you'll pay to renew the plan later on.

We will even relocate all your content at no extra charge if you obtain the dedicated server with the Hepsia Control Panel and you have a standard shared hosting package from our company.

In doing some reading on the subject, I found a couple articles on the discussion of web apps, hybrid apps, and plain old native apps.
This post is of the opinion that web apps written for hybrid release are great up to a certain point of complexity, but are more trouble than they're worth in the end. The main argument here is that there are a lot of hidden costs associated with developing a web app for porting to native – dealing with multiple browsers, the shell framework release schedule, and so on. The author also feels that the performance just isn't the same as a native implementation.
On the other hand, this post by a different developer argues that HTML5 represents the future of mobile development. The author's strongest argument (in my opinion) is that the traditional argument against web apps, that web apps are inherently slower than native apps, is dead. With the huge improvement in JS engines, mobile web speeds, and processing power on these devices, the "slower" speeds involved in executing web code are not an issue.
Not really sure where I stand on the issue, but I think these are all good things to consider. I'd be interested to know how both approaches scale with increased complexity of UI. The biggest thing I have wrestled with in my experience is interface customization, and I imagine that is a big portion of the processing strain in both a native app and a hybrid app.

Sablan is a hilly but a fertile municipality of 8,640 hectares. It is located at the northwestern part of Benguet. The municipality is bounded on the north by the Municipality of Kapangan; on the east by the Municipality of La Trinidad; on the south by the Municipality of Tuba and on the west by Aringay, La Union. About half of the area is used mainly on farming and the rest is covered with forest and for other commercial purposes.
The town's boundary between Tuba is the beautiful Asin Hot Springs, a tourist resort wherein people coming from different places flock in during holidays especially during summer months. We also have the lovely scenery of the Triple "B", Bagong, Balluay and Banengbeng which looks like a tripod design, surrounded by mountains, for which to set a big pot. Also the beautiful but undeveloped waterfalls in Kidpol which is below the Poblacion on the eastern side, which is often visited by people who loves adventure such as swimming and fishing.
Likewise, Sablan is composed of eight (8) barangays namely: Poblacion, Kamog, Bagong, Banengbeng, Banangan, Bayabas and Pappa.
Majority of the inhabitants of this municipality are the Ibalois. There are also Ilocanos and some Kankana-eys and Ifugaos.

Our new addition is getting so much love and attention, his big brother and sister love him so much. Boog has asked for 5 more brothers and 4 more sisters and Baby girl is always asking if another baby is in my tummy :) I am glad they want more siblings since we do want to have more children. The baby is getting so big and already so strong, just look at him holding his head up high at 7 weeks old. I told Gus he will be walking before we know it.
I also wanted to post this link to an interview done here by a local homeschool mom of 4 who also runs the Homeschool Cottage in the neighboring town.

Oh look, it's been five years.
I started this blog five years ago, after much urging from my older sister. At the time, I was barely seventeen, off to Boston University, varsity athlete, adored my cat, had a terrible on-again, off-again boyfriend, had never left north america, was still scared to free think outside of the neo-con(ness) of my parent's household, I thought Green Day's "American Idiot" album was the best thing ever...and I thought I was going to be a doctor.
I started this post a few times, thinking about retiring the blog, thinking about how the mighty have fallen from 5 years ago.
But then again...
(also go watch this trailer. immediately. then come back.)
At 22, The New York Times tells me I have an excuse to feel a bit lost, to slip up and end up back at my parent's house (except, they moved to Texas, possibly so I wouldn't end up at their house!).
But I think I've arrived at a point where I'm okay with where I am. I didn't stay at BU, I transferred (somewhat convolutely) to Harvard. No longer pre-med, I'm definitely headed to law school in a year. Volunteered for two political campaigns, one perhaps the greatest, and one perhaps the greatest loser. Anthro, not so much, hello English major. Gaelic over french (agus is fearr gaeilge bhriste na bearla cliste!), eastern philosophy over western, Varitek over Damon, Crimson > Terriers.
I live in an apartment, and the roommates (two guys) and I get along quite well.
I have a professor that got me a graduate spot at Trinity if I want it, because he recommended me.
I have another professor who referred me to an old friend who works for the UN so I could make sense of the Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia when I was in the Hague.
Debate's gone well; as I looked over my record last year, I realized I placed in the top 12 teams six times, which is nothing to scoff at. I've also competed internationally, and who's lucky enough to get to do that?
I have friends around the world, and a couple locally that are really quite amazing.
Really, even though things can be a bit tough here and there, I'm going to be okay. And it's really the first time I've ever felt that way.
So here we go, retiring the blog, because its necessity has expired, its exploration ceased, its story-telling marginalized out of existence.
What does the future hold? Ideally, Harvard Law with 9 months abroad to Australia for an international concentration, an internship at The Hague, a job in London.
More likely is someplace like American Law (look, a program at Monash in Melbourne!), clerkships in Boston (my dear home), criminal defense for a time in Boston, then human rights for the ICC. Entirely plausible.
So, great emptiness that never really held readers, off I go, scurrying towards my Ivy-League sheepskin, researching topics in the bowels of the library that no one will ever read (but at least it's quiet!), travelling here and there (why, hello, Oxford) for education and debate, continuously writing the next great American novel in secret files, and of course, spending my Saturday nights cozied up with Boston Legal reruns. Here I am, signing off.

When I was assembling the SG filters last summer, I asked Birdman whether I should retain the metal grid insert in the bottom shower drain fitting. "Yes" was the answer, so I left it in, wondering slightly why, but knowing better than to question his advice.
So the SG filters have been running about seven months now and are cleaned once a week. After each cleaning, the flow is always better, but over the months, total flow seems to be gradually dropping off and isn't restored to full flow even after cleaning. Yesterday I remembered that I'd plumbed in drain valves and never once used them, figuring the skimmer catches all the sizable stuff. Still, I got curious and opened the valves and let the filters drain 4-6". I guess I shouldn't have been surprised, but flow suddenly returned to like-new. Apparently enough stuff gets through the skimmer bucket that it ended up blocking the bottom inlet/drain. I suspect the reason Birdman wants the shower drain grid left in place is because it's far easier to remove a blockage there than if it had all made its way into the filter assembly and plugged up the bottom layer of rocks.
Summed up, if your SG filters are slowing down, try draining them a few inches and see what comes out!

after months of prayer by family, friends and strangers from around the world, one year ago today,
alexandra daisy sue dunkin
was born. she immediately captured our hearts and made our family complete.
from day one, she has been a relaxed, easy going baby. she was my largest at birth (all 6 pounds 11 ounces of her!) but she is my smallest baby at one year (weighing in at just over 15 pounds). she is an observer and a serious child. laughter and smiles do not come easily but when you get one… you sure know it! and her favorite people? davey and samantha, of course!
i feel like i'm not in the right "place" to do a "year in review" post of sweet alex right now. i'm in my mom's living room and i'm feeling the "pressure" to share thoughts and photos of the Pennsylvania portion of our trip since it's almost over (and i want to write it down before i forget it!). so is it okay if we do a belated "year in review" post of alex? perhaps in mid-august… i'll be home and i will (hopefully) have recovered from this wonderfully crazy road trip adventure of ours!
i still can't believe she's been with us for a whole year (and yet ONLY a year)!
while you wait for me to do a recap, here's a LINK to dave's thoughts on Alex/Daisy's story….

Better Writing, & From Earth and Rain
Better Writing - informed by decades of novel writing, play writing, poetry, essays, blogs and more, and teaching creative writing too, sometimes at tertiary level.
One student loved Earth and Rain - Writing Poetry so much, they carried it everywhere.
Two books, they compliment each other, like salt and pepper, like swimming and sun, like laughing and good friends.
Price includes postage - both books together - anywhere in the world.
Excerpt from Earth and Rain
To Start
Read many kinds of poetry – I recommend NZ poets Dinah Hawken, Michele Leggott, Alistair te Ariki Campbell, Vincent O'Sullivan, Hone Tuwhare, Elizabeth Smither, American poets Adrienne Rich, Anne Sexton, Frank O'Hara, and Ted Kooser. Chilean poet Pablo Neruda and Spanish poet Federico Garcia Lorca wrote excellent pieces, Jorge Luis Borge is also excellent. Basho is a famous Japanese poet, and Li Bai a well known Chinese poet. Also, Persian poetry offers a great deal, and so many others. Research, immerse yourself in your favourite writers' language. Enjoy perennial classics like Shakespeare, and Sappho.
Try a sonnet, a haiku, sestina or other formal poem. Google or look up their form, simply follow the guidelines. Remember to use contemporary language, the way we express ourselves today, but make it fit the traditional pattern.
Excerpt from Better Writing
What are you Doing Here?
"Life is like playing a violin in public and learning the instrument as you go along," a quote from Samuel Butler. Writing then is building a story with words – learning along the way, entertaining, a trial, a joy, just passing time, a vocation, a way to control and order our thinking and much more. Writing may discover new ground, produce fine work, appear truthful, and demonstrate how figures of speech, language, attitude, point of view, plot, poetics, facts, setting, theme and characters can make narrative sing, (there are also other factors but those strike me as the main ones).
As if exploring on a sailing ship, writing takes us on a journey. Early sailors also found new territory, and felt at times awed by the beauty or majesty of a place. For long periods they endured hard work, and loneliness, to bring back what they found. Every time we put pen to paper writers adventure, we embark on a voyage with our fingers to a keyboard, or when we speak into a machine and dictate our work.
The genre I'm mostly known for are covered in these pages, prose, poetry and non-fiction. I've also had a play produced but only mention scripts briefly. This book covers story, poetry and non-fiction basics, and then goes into more detail too.
This is a manual to explain stories, novels, essays and family histories, (the latter also approached as a story). Narrative's a fine art and a real crowd-pleaser. Non-fiction too needs to make sense and appear attractive, original, and engaging. I mention journalism as well, since it may be necessary to at least understand the structure of news, and how to write a press release for publicity. (Writing reviews can also help us learn more about writing, they sometimes earn payment, and rarely, fame).

This article examines the use of risk allocation clauses in construction and infrastructure contracts in the two largest economies on the African continent, namely Nigeria and South Africa.
Standard Forms
In general, the approach to risk allocation in both these jurisdictions mirrors that commonly adopted internationally in substantial construction and infrastructure projects. In both jurisdictions there are local forms of contract, such as in South Africa, the General Conditions of Contract for Construction Works and the Joint Building Contracts Committee series, and in Nigeria the Federal Ministry of Works Contract (which is a variant of the UK originated JCT standard form). However, for larger scale projects, in particular where there is international investment, the standard form contracts typically used will be one of the FIDIC suites of contracts, or latterly in South Africa the UK-originated NEC3 suite of contracts.
In both jurisdictions the impact of inflation and foreign exchange fluctuations are key factors in determining the pricing of contracts. The fact that these factors are often unpredictable means that wholly fixed-price contracts are relatively rare in South Africa, with the pricing values often linked to agreed indices either for some or for the whole of the price of the contract.
It is not unusual for a contractor to accept as fixed a certain percentage of the contract price, but in general the majority of the risk exposure for these factors typically lies with the employer through indices or forward cover taken out by the employer. The fact that the employer usually takes the lion's share of the risk associated with currency fluctuations and inflation means that premium pricing by the contractor to hedge against such risks is avoided.
In contrast, in Nigeria it is more common for the contractor on larger construction and infrastructure projects to be responsible in some degree for the risk associated with increases in price caused by inflation and/or for exchange fluctuations. It is respectfully suggested that this may be a counter-productive approach in that in such circumstances it is highly likely that contractors will charge premium pricing in order to protect themselves against such a risk.
Fitness for Purpose
Indeed, as a general proposition, a greater preponderance of risk tends to be placed on the contractor in Nigeria than it does in South Africa. This, typically, might include accepting a fitness for purpose obligation and also the risk of a change in law. In general, neither of these risks would be acceptable to a contractor in South Africa. With regard to accepting a fitness for purpose obligation, as for example in the UK, insurance would not generally be available to cover this.
Limitation of Liability
In South Africa, it is common practice to limit or indeed exclude liability for consequential and losses and this might even extend to a cap on the contractor's liability for direct damages. As in the UK and many other common law jurisdictions, it is not typical for delay damages and the proceeds from insurances to be taken into account in the calculation of whether a cap has been reached.
Similar considerations apply in Nigeria where caps on liability would rarely exceed the contract price and in some sectors, the cap may be considerably lower than this. In both jurisdictions, as is typical in most common law jurisdictions, it is generally not possible to limit liability where death or personal injury, fraud or wilful misconduct has occurred. Post-completion in both jurisdictions, the contractor will seek to limit its liability for defects and warranty periods, whilst in many cases the employer will seek to impose performance guarantees upon the contractor.
Force Majeure
Force majeure clauses are prevalent in both jurisdictions with the courts placing emphasis on precisely defined events and the need for these circumstances to arise in every particular before relief will be granted. In both jurisdictions, particularly close attention is paid to the precise wording of clauses dealing with political circumstances that might give rise to a force majeure event. In both jurisdictions the courts are keen to emphasize that circumstances which simply make it more difficult for the parties to perform their obligations under the contract will not give rise to a force majeure event.
Professional Appointments
With regard to professional appointments, as with contracts for larger construction and infrastructure projects, these are typically based on the FIDIC Model Services Agreement or latterly in South Africa the NEC3 Professional Services Contract. In the public sector, it is common for bespoke appointments to be prepared which contain many of the features of the international standard form appointments but also address specific public procurement requirements.
Many of the issues outlined above in respect of construction and infrastructure contracts are also encountered in the drafting and negotiation of professional appointments. Especially in Nigeria, employers may seek to impose a fitness for purpose obligation on the consultant, with the consultant in turn seeking some variation of a reasonable skill and care obligation. Typically, in both jurisdictions the latter standard will generally prevail due to the unwillingness of professional indemnity insurers to offer cover at the higher standard.
The good advice that risk in a construction or infrastructure contract should sit with the party best able to manage that risk applies just as much in Nigeria, South Africa and the African continent as a whole as it does anywhere else in the world. So, risks that can be controlled by management or planning, or which are quantifiable and/or insurable, might typically sit with the contractor. Risks that are unpredictable or are by their nature less easy to quantify, such as unforeseen ground conditions or political risk, should more usually sit with the employer. In broad terms the experience of contracting in South Africa might seem to follow this approach, as it does to a considerable degree in Nigeria, although perhaps to a lesser degree in certain key areas such as exposure to inflation and currency fluctuation, and fitness for purpose obligations.

Stickles Storage
So I hope this can help someone else save money and space.
Ahh Velcro. Such wonderful stuff! Especially when it's self adhesive. :)
I simply used the male side, cut it into strips and stuck it straight to the wall. You could adhere it so any surface really. I just wanted mine above the desk in a an easy to reach spot.
The best way to store Stickles is upside down.
I just cut strips from the female side, and stuck them on the bottles.
So there you have it! Super easy, I'm talking minutes, and cheap! Not to mention is makes me super happy to see all the colors lined up like that. What can I say, I'm a very visual person :)
My original idea was to actually do it magnetically. By hanging them under the edge of a shelf, and attaching little magnets to the bottom of the bottles, with a magnetic strip on the shelf. But I didn't have magnets, and I'm an instant gratification kinda person when I get an idea, so I searched for something I had on hand. Voila.
Hope this can help you too :)

It's going to be a serious battle of sorts between two young actors – Naga Chaitanya and Aadi at box-office this weekend. Naga Chaitanya starrer Tadakha and Aadi's Sukumarudu are both releasing today and the pre-release buzz about both these films is pretty good. Directed by Kishore Pardasany, Tadakha has Naga Chaitanya, Tamannaah, Sunil and Andrea in lead roles and it has been produced by Bellamkonda Suresh. After watching the film, Naga Chaitanya and Nagarjuna are pretty confident about the film and the success of this film will give a new lease of life for Naga Chaitanya who hasn't tasted success in a long time. On the other hand, Sukumarudu's success is vital for the growth of Aadi as an actor. His previous two films, Premakavali and Lovely, did decent business at box-office and a hit now will ensure that he cements his position as a saleable star. After Gunde Jaari Gallanthayindhe, there hasn't been a youth centric film this summer, but that might just change this weekend. It remains to be seen which of the two films has the last laugh at box-office.

For today, Thursday, January 20, 2011
I am thinking... I am thinking about some new friends (the Joshuas) who spent Thanksgiving and Christmas with our family. Eden just loved their daughter Meesha. They are similar in age and really hit it off. Meesha has stage 4 neuroblastoma and is in the hospital recovering from surgery. Pray for them if you think about it.
I am thankful for... Payday is tomorrow. We killed the budget this month and this past week has been one of scraping the bottom of the barrel (or to be more literal, the jelly jar).
From my kitchen... I am having to be extremely creative this week as we had no grocery budget. I am doing some serious pantry purging. I made a terrible loaf of wheat bread yesterday. I am certain I followed the recipe, but it tasted a bit like salty cardboard. Anyone have some good whole wheat recipes I can stick in the bread machine?
I'm going to... Start the day. I need to get on the ball this morning! I am still in PJs and so are the kids (it's 11am)! In my defense, I *have* done a load of laundry and put away 3 folded loads...
I'm reading... You are Your Child's First Teacher by Rahima Baldwin.
I'm hoping... Hoping we can all get some sleep tonight. It has been a rough few nights in a row and I am beginning to feel sleep deprived.
I am creating... Appliques for Theo's quilt!
I am hearing... Theo's signature "growl" and him shaking a can of peanuts.
Around the house... The kitchen looks pretty good, but I really need to tackle the bedrooms. Fortunately, they are on the list for today!
A few plans for the weekend... After Theo's OT tomorrow, we are heading up to Elkton, VA with some friends to do a little cabin camping. We haven't been camping in quite some time and it should be a fun weekend!
A picture thought... Here is sweet Meesha tea-partying with my kids. Seriously, pray for her today.

Read Next-Gen's candid interview with SCEA's Jack Tretton, as he talks frankly about PS3 supplies, Blu-ray diodes, retailers, the media, publishers and rivals. To coin a phrase, the next generation begins right here…
I actually didn't realize that Sony's the #1 seller of HDTVs (I just remembered them being 3rd or 4th a while back). Tretton's right about American media in that journalists only like to concentrate on the negative aspects, and tend to ignore the positive ones.
His statement "If all three platforms failed but we failed less than the other two I would not cheer 'well at least we beat those guys!" makes a lot of sense. It's good to see that Sony sees themself as their greatest competition and want to do even better than last generation.
You can tell he still loves to mention this little figure: "PlayStation 2 is outselling Xbox 360 for the year; we're out-selling Xbox 360 month after month. The same machine that beat the Xbox in 2001 is beating the Xbox 360 in 2006. That's amazing and that's big news, but you don't read a lot about that."

Work has now been completed to fix a major water leak which has left many homes in the BB8 area without water.
Water supply to homes along Burnley Road stopped or was reduced to a trickle around 6-30pm last night following a leak in Regent Street. Engineers worked through the night to resolve the problem.
At 1pm, the United Utilities website reported: Our team of engineers has finished repairing the leaking pipe on Regent Street and the water should be starting to flow normally again.
"However it may take up to two hours for the water pressure to return to normal levels. We're sorry if this has affected you and thank you for your patience.
"Because there's been some disturbance to the pipes in your area you may notice the water is a little cloudy or discoloured."

ASOP Music Festival Year 5 Grand Finalists Explain the Real Story Behind their Song Entries
MANILA, Philippines – The A Song of Praise (ASOP) Year 5 grand finalists wish to give inspirations and hope to people, especially those who are in grief — through their song compositions.
Ronald Calpis, one of the composers of the song "God Will Always Make A Way", said their song entry also serves as an expression of their gratitude to God the Almighty for His loving-kindness.
Composers: Genn Bawa (L) and Ronald Calpis (C), and Bugoy Drilon (R), the interpreter.
"Kasi sa panahon ngayon, maraming nade-depress. Maraming tao ngayon balisa, kaya po naisip namin 'tong kantang ito para makapag-inspire sa mga tao na nagugulimihanan at nahihirapan," explained Calpis, adding , "[through our song] nakakapag-puri kami sa Panginoong Dios."
Calpis said that the idea to compose a song came after his friend and former bandmate, Glen Bawa, asked him if they could compose a song entry for the ASOP Music Festival.
Then, after a week of brainstorming, they were able to get the song's idea from the Bible verses, 1 Peter 5:7 and Philippians 4:6, which delve on trust and faith in God who always provide solutions to problems. Hence, there is no need to worry.
Wanting the melody of the song to be joyful and lively, he chooses the reggae genre for their composition. It is the first reggae-themed praise song that earned commendations from the judges during the monthly elimination round, which then made it to ASOP Year 5 grand finals.
According to Ronald, this is not the first time that they joined ASOP. They may have failed four times, but the two didn't stop as they are inspired to do a praise song. "Hindi po kami sumusuko, kahit matalo. Sali lang ng sali, alang-alang sa karangalan ng Panginoon," Calpis shared.
"Kung medyo may rejections man, try lang ng try, kasi darating din naman 'yung araw na ibibigay sa atin ng Dios 'yung awit na nararapat para sa atin mismo. Kasi ang Dios po, Siya po ang nagbibigay ng awit sa puso at labi natin, nakasulat po yon sa Awit 40:3," Calpis added.
He also thanked Bro. Eli Soriano of Ang Dating Daan and Kuya Daniel Razon, the CEO of UNTV-BMPI, for spearheading the ASOP Music Festival on television. He said ASOP, as a songwriting competition, is a big help not only for the aspiring composers but as well to the OPM (Original Pilipino Music) industry itself.
"Dahil po sa ASOP, nabuhayan po 'yung mga Pilipino, pati po yung mga composer, na bumuo po ng kanta. Ang laki ng naitulong ng ASOP para po sa akin. Kaya nagpapasalamat po ako kay Bro. Eli at kay Bro.Daniel at sa Dios dahil naibangon po ulit at sana tuloy tuloy pa rin pong maibangon ang industriya ng musikang Pilipino." he gratefully said.
12 New Praise Songs on Music Fest Night
Twelve inspiring praise songs are vying for the ASOP "Song of the Year" title on its grand finals night at Smart-Araneta Coliseum on November 07, 2016. There will be over one million cash prizes to be given away to the winners.
The composer of the "Song of the Year" winner will receive Php500,000 cash prize plus trophy. Meanwhile, the composers for the first to third runners-up will bag Php250,000, Php150,000 and Php100,000 plus trophies, respectively.
The ASOP Year 5 "Best Song Interpreter" and the "People's Choice Award" will also receive Php50,000 each plus trophies.

ASOP provides an online voting for "People's Choice Award", which is now available via asoptv.com.
Respected names from music and entertainment industry are expected to grace the event and will serve as judges for the grand competition night. The complete list of names of the judges will be revealed on the night of the event.
Now on its sixth year, ASOP Music Festival is a staunch supporter and promoter of Original Pilipino Music (OPM).
The program is dubbed not only as "the only songwriting competition" on television, but also as "the only songwriting school" on Philippine television.
To date, ASOP has already marked its milestones in the Philippine music industry, being awarded as the "Best Talent Search Program" at the 29th PMPC Star Awards for Television (organized by Philippine Movie Press Club).
