When I was at Neseblud, I got talking to some of the guys there and mentioned how I felt it would be cool to just "stumble across" a certain musician. I won't name names, but I was told by the person I was talking to that he used to play in a band with said musician, who was on drum duty.
Though they split up years ago, he still kept in touch with the fellow as they connected through a love of music in their working environment.
Again, I am not going to name names here. Oh, no.
That's where you – the reader – come in. I want you to listen to this track, and try to guess from the music alone whom the musician is that I was talking about.
You must use your own ears and pre-existing instrumental knowledge to figure this one out! The only hint that I will give is that they're not on vocals.
If I find out that you've cheated… I will make you listen to St. Anger. On repeat, at a speed times five.
Good luck!

Can you handle going 1 week without posting on Facebook?
With phones getting more and more high-performance and strong wifi being ever more omnipresent internet life has replaced real life. On average about 80% of the time we should be working or living is lost to aimless scrolling through our feed because it's just so attention grabbing with inifinite content made for us. Many cases of internet dependencies are arising and people are spending less time doing simple enjoyable activities like reading books, going out into nature or learning a new activity like surfing.
At ridewithlocal we have a cure! A rehab program in partnership with our friends at the Good Story surf school and beach hotel in Weligama, Sri Lanka. Check out the surf therapy internet rehab center below:
To celebrate the summer season we are running a giveaway to initiate two lucky ducks into surfing. The winner will be randomly selected but people can increase their chances of winning by not posting stuff on their social medias for a few days. After all that's what summer is for, to surf less internet, surf more waves and start living a good story! So don't miss the wave and enter now!

We flew with Air Canada. The flight was uneventful. Bags came fairly quickly at the airport. Immigration was pretty quick also. The Air Canada Vacations representative was visible immediately upon clearing immigration and we were quickly taken to a waiting bus. The ride to the hotel is only about 30 minutes away.
We booked the Grand Romance Package as it was the only package available at the time of booking that guaranteed an oceanfront view. We loved our room. It was in building #24 with a beautiful view of the water. It was spacious. We were told that the Deluxe Rooms in our building were larger than the ones in the stacked building closer to the main building. The only complaint is the bathroom. I expected more from a 4+ star hotel. The bathtub had flaking enamel & the soap and shampoo dispensers were broken and falling apart. Included in our package were some nice touches: a bottle of champagne on the first night, a plate of chocolate covered strawberries the second night, nightly turn-down service, bathrobes (though they were a little small!), a beautiful bouquet of tropical flowers mid-way through the trip, and two 30-minute massages outside. That was heavenly! I'd highly recommend this package. We were also to get continental breakfast in bed, but we were always too hungry in the morning to settle for a small breakfast & instead got the buffet. A romantic dinner is also included which we also ditched.
Restaurants and Bars:
The buffet was fine. It's much smaller than ones I've been to in other all-inclusives, but the food was fairly tasty. After a few days, it gets a little repetitive: each night, there is the same beef, chicken and fish in a different sauce. The snack bar is ok by the pool. As others attest to, the bars are far from the rooms, and with the 'hilly-ness' of the resort, makes it inconvenient to go out and get drinks. As well, only the lobby bar is open after 6, so went we wanted drinks in the evening, we'd go to the lobby bar and order 2 each and take them back to our rooms we knew we were not going to make the long trek back to the main building to get any more drinks.
We had been told that there were 2 a la cart restaurants: the Oriental and the Italian. We could only get reservations at 9 p.m. for each of them on the days that we booked. They were both OK. The Oriental restaurant had sushi and sashimi which were not high quality, but not too bad. The teriyaki dishes were on the sweet side, but OK -worth a night away from the buffet. The Italian restaurant had nice main dishes: we had beef tenderloin and mahi mahi. Very nice. Tiramisu dessert was terrible.
We found out on our last night that there was another a la cart: The Grill Restaurant. We were ticked off that the business centre staff had never mentioned it, not was this restaurant mentioned in any of the hotel literature. We tried to book on our last night, but it was totally booked up.
The beach is not fantastic, but we knew we were on the Pacific side, so not the whiter sands of the Caribbean side. The sand is brown, so if you're looking for pristine white sands, this isn't the place for you. However, we enjoyed ourselves on the beach. The water isn't as clear as in other countries I've stayed, but still, the salt water was nice and it sure beats Toronto in February! The pool was nice, but too small for the size of resort. It was often difficult to get beach chairs after about 10:00 a.m. It was difficult to actually swim in the pool because of the activities happening in and around the pool. It was extremely annoying when the 'college-boys' engaged in games of football across the whole length of the pool making it impossible for people to relax in the pool or on the chairs surrounding the pool. It would have been nice to have a lap pool or another pool where people could relax without activities going on.
The grounds were beautiful - well maintained. Beautiful tropical flowers. However, when researching this hotel, some sites had spoken of bird-watching and wildlife. While the birds were plentiful, there was not much variety - maybe 3 or 4 different kinds. We saw one monkey from a didstance. There were occasionally quatimundi's (like racoons) walking about the resort - they're harmless.
Activities on and off the Resort/Hotel:
Activities on the Resort: almost non-existent. The 2 or 3 Fun Club staff, while energetic, didn't do a lot - at least not in comparison to other places I've stayed. They did a very quick AquaGym class in the mornings and a quick dance lesson in the afternoon - 1 song only! They sometimes started a volleyball or water polo game in the pool, but that's about it! There is not much entertainment in the evenings. There were only 2 shows while we were there and you don't find out about them unless you're hanging out in the lobby and the Fun Club staff happen to tell you about them. The lack of entertainment was disappointing given that the hotel is isolated and there's nowhere to go in the evenings.
We went on 3 tours. Two were with the Air Canada Vacations tour operator: CRT. The third was with Avispas Adventures. We had researched Avispas on the internet prior to going to Costa Rica, with the intention of calling when we got there. However, they found us - one of their reps was selling tours on the beach. We went on the Avispas Miravelles Volcano Adventure. I can't say enough about Avispas as it was a fantastic trip & they are a far superior tour operator to CRT. I talked with Amy on the phone before booking as I wasn't sure if I should try the Arenal Volcano Tour or the Miravalles Volcano. She highly recommended Miravelles as there is a lot packed into the day and the travel is not very long. She advised that the Arenal Volcano is not always active or visible and is a 3 hour drive. She said that customers are often disappointed to travel a total of 6 hours to not see the volcano. The Miravelles trip was awesome! First we went zip-lining. Very scary, but after the first line, the rest is easy. The zip-lining crew was amazing. They kept our spirits up with their jokes all morning. Then we went to a Costa Rican restaurant. This was the best food that we had the entire week in Costa Rica! Amazing! Then we went to the volcano. We first went horseback riding for about half an hour part-way up the mountain, then we hiked for another half an hour and saw some beautiful waterfalls and the lush forest. Then we rode the horses back and toured the crater of the Miravalles volcano. At the end of the tour, we had a mud bath right there in the crater! Then we bathed in the hot springs. The Avispa tour guide, Mario, brought us a bottle of wine to drink while we were in the springs. Heaven! This trip was $145 and there were only 4 of us. The personal attention was worth every penny. We were able to go to souvenir stores and stay as long as we liked. I would absolutely recommend Avispas Adventures to anyone wanting to tour in the Guanacaste Region.

Overall, I would say that the Grand Papagayo is a beautiful hotel with some really nice staff. Ana Mary in the buffet & snack bar is particularily lovely and remembers everyone's names. Even though I've been a little critical, I do think that the hotel is a good value and if I was to come back to this region of Costa Rica, I would stay here again. As many travel sites state that this hotel isn't appropriate for those with physical disabilities - take this advice seriously! It is quite hilly. My travelling partner had a sprained ankle and it was unbearable for her often on the hills and steps. However, the shuttle bus is available to take you around, so don't let the hills stop you.

We're still waiting for our insurance claim to be honored. We had an expensive camera and cash stolen within an hour of our luggage being put in the room and when we filed an official report the management accused us of telling lies, suggested we had lost the camera on a tour, but after three days of wrangling finally agreed they'd have their insurance company pay for the loss. Two months later, we're still waiting despite several e-mails. We heard from other guests that thefts had occured prior to ours but the management denied it, said their security system is failproof. Aside from the uncooperative attiutde of management, there was no attempt to move us to another room and we never felt safe in that room again. The rooms themselves are very basic, mold in the bathrooms, definitely not a five star, but more like a three star. We've stayed with the Marriott and Hyatt chain many times and know the difference. The spa cold and uninviting and th eworst pedicure I've ever had. The staff aren't trained properly. The grounds also are so so and the beach almost a waste of time as it's so small with no real way to swim safely in the ocean. Food was very good as was waiter service, but the rest of the hotel left much to be desired, a very quiet, boring place without any dancing or evening activites. We were very disappointed in our stay there.

My boyfriend and I are in our late 20's and are frequent travelers. We stayed at the Occidental Grand Papagayo Nov 3-10 2007 and had an AMASING time. This was classified as their rainy season but we had beautiful hot weather with only a few showers. I would highly recommend this resort.
All the employees were excellent. They spoke good English and always went out of their way to help you. They make approx. $1/hr so if you decide to tip, it is extremely appreciated!
This resort has 1 buffet, 1 pool-side snack bar, and 2 a la carte (Oriental and Italian) restaurants. The food was good but is more of what I would call traditional "Costa Rican" style. Lots of beans, rice chicken and fish - you will never go hungry though!! I would highly recommend the Italian restaurant A++
Avispa's Tours - www.avispasadventures.com we read about Amy before we left Canada and booked the Miravalles Volcano Adventure and Arenal Volcano Adventure and had a FANSATIC TIME! I would highly recommend booking with them– you won't be disappointed!!! Her tours are smaller groups (2-4ppl) so this way you get a more laid-back adventure as it's up to you how long you want to stay at each site. Miravalles is a must do tour which includes zip-lining, horseback riding (or tracker ride), nature hike with water falls, sulfur springs, hot springs, and mud baths. Arenal includes a nature hike, the volcano, hot springs and we added ATV'ing. We did not see the volcano the day we went it because it was cloudy – still worth the trip! This tour is a long day 13+ hours so if you want something closer to the resort go with Miravalles, its only 1 hour away. All food, snacks, beverages are included in the price (which is comparative to what the hotel is going to try and sell you). The van is safe and secure so don't worry you wont lose your personal belongings. I recommend you bring rain gear and a change of clothing just in case. I won't go into much more detail but if you want more info check out her website or email me! TOUR WITH AMY – AVISPA'S IS THE BEST!
Mario Tours:
There are a few people on the beach operating tours. They are usually much cheaper then the ones offered through the resort. We did a 2 hour boating trip with Mario which included snorkeling (2 different sites) caves, and whale/dolphin watching for $25. It was safe, and we had a great time.
Sunset Walk:
This is arranged by the entertainment staff and is worth doing!
My big concern before I booked this trip was scorpions. I heard stories of people finding them in their suitcases, in their rooms etc. I didn't see one my entire trip. If you get up early (animals feed in the am) you can see all kinds of wildlife on the property. If you are not into the wildlife, don't worry, unless you are out looking for it you probably wont come across much on the resort
If you have any questions or want more info, please feel free to email me firstname.lastname@example.com

Book 8: Devil in Silver
There are elements of this that are entirely brilliant. The writing is crisp, characters easily distinguished, realistic dialogue. The mental asylum is effectively presented as a horrible, beauracratic nightmare. The main character, an incredible bulk named Pepper, provides a great filter for the story to unfold, though the supporting characters are dazzling in their own rights and often steal the proverbial show. The only complaints I had was that there were a lot of unanswered questions (which is okay sometimes, but Lavalle seemed to go out of his way to clean up some items while leaving others completely dangling) and the ending seemed inevitable and a bit predictable, though I feel like that's quibbling. But I loved the ride in getting there and have LaValle on a short list of my favorite contemporary authors.

What Scares Me Most About My Son
I happen to be mother to the smartest kid in the whole, wide world. Yep, my 13-year-old son, Cole, knows every freaking thing and is not afraid to tell me so. He also won't hesitate to tell me what's wrong with Big Government, design flaws in high-dollar European automobiles and my numerous parenting foibles, the last of which makes me so happy.
It is, actually, that headstrong attitude that simultaneously makes me proud and scares the hell out of me. Why? Because I know someday, probably sooner than I want or am ready for, he'll come home from college, the military or a year spent driving on the Autobahn and be his own man. I've watched it happen to children of co-workers, friends and family—most recently my sister.
RELATED: Lessons passed down from one mother to her daughter
My sister raised two great boys, struggling most of those years as a single mother. Now in their late teens and early 20s, the oldest has decided he doesn't believe in God, something that has caused a great deal of consternation for his devoutly Christian mother.
I mentioned this to my friend Dr. Janet Taylor, a psychiatrist who put it all into perspective for me.
"Parenting a child with an independent point of view can be a blessing," she said. "Kids need to be able to form their own opinions and express them. Parents should listen to their kids, encourage them to expand or even defend their point of view, and support their ability to think outside of the box. Use the opportunity to model tolerance and listening to understand."
RELATED: Putting kids' thoughts into words
Use the opportunity to model tolerance and listening to understand: that sounds perfect and makes great sense. Besides, that's what we would want and expect them to do for us, right? So then why do we freak out when they come home with a different belief system, and how can we stop losing it when that happens? It will help if you keep these three things in mind:
1. Remember our primary job: Yes I know, you labored for 37 hours, delivered with no anesthesia and all before the real work of the next 18 years got under way. The least that kid could do is agree with you! But we need to remember that one of our primary jobs as parents is to prepare our kids for life outside of our front door. That means empowering them to use the critical thinking skills we've been trying to instill in them since they were small children. It's not fair to ask them to use those skills only on things like not putting empty milk cartons back in the fridge.
2. Be a safety net, not a safety harness: This is one of the big pillars of my parenting. I see myself as a safety net that will be there when my kids fall, as opposed to a safety harness that holds them in place, preventing missteps. It's important that they try and, in some cases, fail. We have to remember that failure can be a powerful teaching tool. How else will they hit on what works if they don't know what doesn't? I'm not saying lack of religion is a failure, but in my nephew's case, it's a journey that only he can take.
RELATED: Q&A: What's the best way to talk to girls?
3. Let them live their own lives: Isn't that what this is about, ultimately? As parents, we have to understand that our kids are making decisions for their own lives, not because they are a reflection of us. This is precisely where many parents get into trouble. We, in our narcissism (and yes, I think there's a bit of this at play), want our children to be miniature versions of us. After all, what's more flattering than that? But it's not fair or realistic to ask them to be independent and then yank the leash when they try to run.
I try to remind myself that this isn't really so much about our kids rejecting us. It's more about them figuring out what works for them so they can care for themselves when they're out of the house. And isn't that what we want? Yes. Yes it is.
In my case, not right away, but someday soon I will be doing the happy dance as Cole puts what I have taught him to good use as he pulls out of the driveway in his high-dollar European automobile. The one he helped design.
Now I get what my mom went through!
Celeb moms and their number one fans

I hope that this doesn't end up being sort of anti-climatic for you guys since it's taken me so long to post anything about the meeting from last week. I'm still recovering from the critter that has been trying to "off" me since the middle of last week. We're still hoping for a Christmas miracle that I'll be better in time to celebrate on Friday.
So anyway - back to the post at hand...
Our meeting was what is officially called a Pre-Adoption Counseling meeting - which basically means that we spent about 2 hours or so with the lady that we'll likely have the most contact with through the process. We talked about our feelings on adoption, children, and their process.
Their process is a bit different than what we originally thought, at least in terms of the contact. Not that it's bad, but it is a little change in what we were expecting. The foundation is based on the idea that the agency is there to foster a relationship between the birthmother and the adoptive parents... as well as with the child. In my heart of hearts, I feel like when we meet the birthmother for our baby - the one that God intends us to have... we will know that she was also meant to be a part of our lives forever as well. If for some reason she is not, God will take care of that as well.
In terms of the contact though - it goes more like this:
We'll meet the birthmother initially before the birth (in most cases) and again at the hospital. She can sign away her rights to the child 48 hours after the birth - or anytime after that point.
From that time - we'll send letters with pictures:
1st week the baby is home
2nd week
3rd week
1st month the baby is home
2nd month
3rd month
4th month
5th month
6th month
1 year
every 6 months after that point
We will have the opportunity to spend some time with her at an annual picnic every year as well... and if everyone feels comfortable - we can take it off line as well and see her at any other point we'd like.
It's sort of scary to conceptualize, but at the same time - one of the videos we saw at the agency shared a story of a family that adopted a little boy from a particular birthmother... and their relationship blossomed. The adoptive parents talk about almost feeling like a second set of parents to this young lady as well - in terms of them wanting to counsel her on school and who she's dating... things like that. So I guess if it's an opportunity for us to take a young lady's baby in to raise as our own... and for us to minister to her at the same time - we're 100% on board and open to that. God will tell us what is right for us.
The only scary thing that we weren't quite prepared for - but we will just deal with it when the time comes... if it is to be part of our story... but basically in the State of Texas there is a 30 day period where if the birthmother changes her mind - she CAN come back and get the baby. Basically no judge in the state would recognize us as having rights to the child within that timeframe - but again, they explained it to us and it sort of makes sense. It would absolutely be the hardest thing I can imagine... but I certainly wouldn't want to be in the position of someday looking at my child and having to tell them that their birthmother wanted them back - and I said no... or prevented that. Again, it's scary - BUT God is bigger than that... and all we can do is remain faithful that he's got us covered for whatever our needs will be.
We basically left the meeting with the knowledge needed to complete our profile - which is the document that will be shared with potential birthmothers so that they can choose the adoptive family for their child. The agency gives the mothers three at a time to look at - and 98% of the time they choose from those three profiles.
So we'll be working on getting ours completed over the Christmas holidays... our goal is to have it finished by Monday.
From there - when the ladies get back in the office from their time off - they will be setting up our appointments for our individual interviews as well as our home study. We also have a list of other things to accomplish:
Health Physicals for both of us
Shots for the dogs
Finish reading our books & write our summaries
Attend infant care class
Attend CPR training
Home Inspections
Get a reference from our Pastor...
And those are just the things I know of right now!
It's a busy time in our house... but we're certainly chipping away at the "to do" list as best we can. We can't wait to see what happens next!

DOWNEY — Gadfly Stanley Wantuch has filed a lawsuit in Norwalk Superior Court against Downey Councilman Robert G. Cormack and other city officials, accusing them of false arrest, assault and battery and of depriving him of his First Amendment rights.
Police dragged Wantuch out of the Downey City Council chamber and arrested him last November after Cormack and other officials claimed he was disrupting a council meeting. Wantuch had been ejected from a council meeting the month before for videotaping from an aisle in violation of a city ordinance.
Last May, a Municipal Court jury found Wantuch innocent of disrupting the council meetings and obstructing a police officer. The judge in the case criticized Cormack for depriving Wantuch of his freedom to speak and called the arrest unlawful and unconstitutional.
Wantuch said he suffered neck, shoulder and back injuries when he was removed.
The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages. It also seeks an injunction to prohibit armed, uniformed police officers from serving as sergeants-at-arms at the council meetings--the city's current practice. The lawsuit alleges that the presence of an armed police officer inhibits free speech during council meetings.
Downey City Atty. Peter Thorson could not be reached for comment.

ARIA Natural Episodes
ARIA The Natural
Episode 23: 「その 海と恋と想いと…」
ARIA company received an appointment from an elderly couple. During the tour, Akari observed the husband's stern behavious and were worried. Later they passed by a bridge and took a photo for them. Akari noticed the husband ears turned red when he's embarassed. The husband asked the wife to meet up with him at 5pm as she went shopping. Later Akari, Aika and Alice went for grocery shopping and heard an argument. It was the elderly husband. Akari was concerned but he asked her not to mind his business. They asked the shopkeeper and was told that the husband had requested for a specific gondola for weddings on the ocean. Later, they met the husband again, this time, with a quartet of musicians apologizing to him. Akari asked the husband and the husband told them that he had been busy the whole life and he wanted to fulfil his wife's wedding dream on that tour. Akari offered to help, telling him that she wanted other people to love Neo-Venezia as much as her.
Back a ARIA, the girls decorated the gondola. Mean while the wife noticed something in a glass shop. The husband got onto the gondola and realized it was time to meet his wife. Aika and Alice went to prepare the music for the event. The wife was happy to see the gondola. Alicia, Akira and Atena arrived and requested that their customer joined them for the special event. Alice and Aika arrived with the quartet musicians earlier. With everything ready, they all set off. Out on the sea, the husband reached his pocket for the ring but couldnt find it. The wife took out a ring and said that she had bought it earlier. Aika commented that their hearts had been thinking of each other even when they were separated. The husband and wife stood up, made a vow and tossed the ring up in the sky. Everyone clapped and congratulated the couple.
Episode 24: 「その 明日のウンディーネに… 」
It was raining and the usual practice session was cancelled but the three young undines agreed to study together. Akari received a call from Aika, reprimanding her for being slow. Akari and Alice went to Himeya dormitory to meet Aika. On the staircase, they met Akira and also saw a few undines whispering nearby. Aika told them that they were observing her with her gradual progress to become a Prima undine. They went to Aika's room and study. Aika mentioned that ARIA company held two records, Alicia for the youngest Prima and Grandma for the longest-serving Prima. After a while, Aika interrupted and started discussing their future Prima name(Pseudonym). They had fun teasing each other. Akira came in and asked them to help her with some paperworks. After finishing them, Aika brought them to Akira. On the way, she eavesdropped the conversation of previous undines. She went back her room and cried. She told Akari and Alice that they were not talking about her but speaking ill of Akira. Akira brought the dropped documents and cups of tea to Aika's room. She shared about her experience on how competitive it was to be a Prima undines and how people would criticise behind people. She later thanked Aika for her concern and smiled to encourage them. The rain had stopped. The 3 undines went to the street and raised their hands towards the sky. They all agreed to work hard to be Prima undines and laughed with joy.
Episode 25:> 「その 出逢いの結晶は… 」
The undines started wearing their winter uniforms in autumn. Akari was worried about Ai's sick grandmother and she had not received any emails from Ai. Aika asked if Ai would make it to the Rendentore festival. Alice asked Akari and Aika how they were going to spent the Rendentore. Akari spent it with Alicia last year and hope Ai would join them this time. Aika would participate in Himeya annual party. They asked Alice and she replied that she slept through it last year because of schooling.
Upon reaching ARIA company, they saw Alicia, Akira and Atena. The 3 Prima undines told Akari, Aika and Alice that they would have to host a party to celebrate the festival. Later Akari and Aika were thinking of the preparation. Alice returned from her school and showed her invitation card designs. With that, they all get into the mood and started to decide the guests. The 3 prima undines were definite. Akari wanted to invite Uncle Postman, Akatsuki and Woody while Aika and Alice wanted to invite Al and Grandma respectively. There one more spot left and Akari told them that she wanted to invite Ai, even if she might not make it. Over the next few days, the 3 of them went for grocery shopping, practised cooking and decorated the boat.
On the night of the Rendentore Festival, all the guest arrived except Ai. It was time to set off but Ai had not arrived. Akari sadly started rowing the boat. From a distance, Ai ran towards the wharf and shouted for Akari. Ai then boarded the boat and said that she wanted to give Akari a surprise (but nearly miss it!). The boat set off and the guests started to tastet the cuisine prepared by the young undines. Aika presented a speech thanking the guests while Aria sachou, Ai and Atena presented a dance. After the dinner, everyone rested. Aika gave a signal, they switched off the light and opened the curtains on the boat. At 12am, firework displays started. Grandma requested the 3 undines to watch the firework with them. As the admired the display, the guests gathered together and offered a toast to the 3 undines, thanking them for the wonderful experience.

Bright Brewery is excited to announce the arrival of brewer Richard Chamberlin to head our beer production. He steps into the role following Ryan Tyack's move to Pirate Life in Adelaide. Richard's brewing experience and qualifications will provide Bright Brewery with valuable expertise as we plan and build a new production facility in Bright to increase our brewing capacity.
Richard was born in Melton Mowbray, England, a small town in the English Midlands famous for being the home of the Melton Mowbray Pork Pie and Stilton Cheese.
He began his brewing career at Brewsters Brewing Co in Lincolnshire, UK, where he worked for over 8 years and was Head Brewer between 2010-2012. During this time he also completed the Diploma in Brewing at the Institute of Brewing and Distilling.
A long held desire to visit Australia lead him to embark on a "brew around Australia" working holiday in 2012 to gain more experience. He soon found himself working as the Quality Assurance Brewer at Mildura Brewery in north-west Victoria.
"After working in Mildura for only a month I had fallen in love with the town and the country and decided that I wanted to stay longer than the year I had initially envisaged," Richard explained.
A passion for the science of beer production and quality assurance has made Richard an ideal fit for Bright Brewery.
"I would say my biggest passion is the brewing process itself. There is something very satisfying about achieving a perfect lauter run-off with beautiful clear worts. This early stage of a brew is so fundamental to the final product in the glass, so I love to make each stage of the wort production process the best it can be."
When asked about his move to Bright, Richard expressed his pleasure to be moving to such a beautiful region of Australia.
"There is no denying the beauty of Bright and its surroundings and it is a privilege to be given the chance to live and work in Bright," said Richard.
"It has the small, friendly, close community that I am familiar with. Living in Bright will also give me the opportunity to rediscover cycling, something I've not done since leaving the UK, and to maybe discover a new outdoor pursuit."
Richard has been joined by our Assistant Brewer Tom Wood, who has moved to Bright from Adelaide for his first brewing job following brewing study with Institute of Brewing and Distilling and TAFE SA, as well as obtaining a Bachelor of Science at University of Adelaide last year.
The arrival of the two brewers occurs exactly 10 years after Bright Brewery opened its doors on the Queen's Birthday long weekend in 2006. Together, Richard and Tom will help lead Bright Brewery's beers into its second decade, as the local brewery seeks to take its MountainCrafted beers to the national market.

By RACHEL ZOLL, AP Religion Writer
New figures released Thursday by the nation's Roman Catholic bishops show the unrelenting toll of the clergy sex abuse crisis: 783 new credible claims last year, most of which date back decades, and costs of nearly $467 million.
While researchers who analyzed 50 years of data on molestation claims concluded the number of new cases is declining, the church is still paying a heavy price for predatory clergy.
The abuse problem was already known to have cost dioceses more than $1 billion since 1950, including some expenses paid last year. Still, Teresa Kettelkamp, director of the bishops' Office of Child and Youth Protection, said the total abuse-related expenses shelled out in 2005 were likely the largest ever for a single year.
The total number of accusations against Catholic clergy now stands at more than 12,000 since 1950. (emphasis added)
The latest statistics were released as part of the third audit U.S. bishops commissioned to restore trust in their leadership after abuse allegations soared in 2002. Auditors found that 88.5 percent of dioceses had put in place full safeguards for children required by the bishops' reforms.
However, advocates for victims called the audit inadequate, since 104 of the 195 American dioceses conducted a "self-audit." In previous years, teams from the Gavin Group, a private firm led by former FBI agent William Gavin, had conducted onsite audits in all participating dioceses.
Speaking at a news conference, Gavin and a key church official agreed with the critics that the new report didn't capture the full picture.
They pointed to the recent failure of the Archdiocese of Chicago to remove an accused priest from church work for four months until he was criminally charged. The archdiocese was found to be in full compliance in the 2005 audit, but an outside investigator hired by Chicago Cardinal Francis George to look into the priest's case found a string of stunning lapses by archdiocesan staff that left children at risk.
The failures had an impact beyond Chicago because George played a key role in shaping the bishops' new discipline plan that permanently bars guilty priests from church work. George also is the vice president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops.
"To find that this happened in Chicago was a great sorrow and disappointment to all of us," said Patricia Ewers, chairwoman of the National Review Board, the bishops' lay watchdog panel. "If people do not live up to their responsibilities, do not communicate effectively, then you can have the kind of terrible consequences you have in Chicago."
Ewers said the Chicago case provided strong evidence that the bishops need to expand the scope of their audits and measure whether child protection programs are working. Gavin supported the idea, which will be brought before the nation's bishops.
In a companion report, researchers from the John Jay College of Criminal Justice, who the bishops had hired to tally abuse claims nationwide from 1950-2002, released a new analysis of that data which found the number of new abuse cases peaked in the 1970s and 1980s and then began to decline.
In 2004, dioceses received more than 1,092 new abuse claims, in addition to the 10,667 claims the American church received from 1950-2002. However, just like the claims in 2005, most of the allegations involved incidents from decades ago.
"The decrease in sex abuse cases is real," said Karen Terry, principal investigator on the study.
The bishops' abuse prevention policy requires dioceses to hire victim assistance coordinators, form review boards to help evaluate abuse claims, conduct background checks on staff and volunteers and teach children to protect themselves from predators.
The biggest failure auditors found was that several dioceses don't have full safe environment training for children, and four dioceses have not fully complied with the call for background checks. The four dioceses are Burlington, Vt.; Portland, Maine; Salina, Kan.; and the Apostolic Exarchate for Armenian Catholics in New York.
Barbara Blaine, a found of the Survivors Network of Those Abused by Priests, said none of the programs will work as long as no one is monitoring the bishops — who retain enormous discretion in overseeing priests. Only the pope can discipline bishops.
Separately Thursday, the New Hampshire attorney general released an independent audit her office conducted of sex abuse prevention in the Manchester Diocese, finding that the church failed to make sure that criminal background checks have been done on all employees and volunteers who work with children.
The state audit was part of a 2002 agreement the diocese struck with prosecutors to avoid criminal prosecution over failure to rein in abusers.

Finally … an opportunity to write down (AGAIN) some thoughts about the Bb usersconference 2006. I had written a posting monday but thanx to shutting off the network in the cybercafe at 7:00 pm I couldn't save my entry and my writings disappeared in thin air. Yesterday I started writing this one and today I am hoping to finish it. I feel really handicapped not having my own laptop at my disposal.
Blackboard 2.0
Blackboard 2.0 is coming soon. That was the general message of Michaels and Matthews keynote. For the first year the keynote wasn't about the networked learning environment but Blackboard has jumped on the 2.0 bandwagon.
First Blackboard compared e-learning 1.0 to e-learning 2.0. According to Blackboard the differences can be characterized as follows:
- Platform adoption (i.e. getting people to use a VLE) versus extending the platform (through Buildingblocks for instance)
- Focus on Courses versus focus on Social Networks
- Educational segments (contents is specific to an organization: if you move from one segment to another you lose the work you have produced so far ) versus life long learning
- Inputs (how much stuff can you put into a VLE) versus outcome (are we getting enough out of the system)
Then Blackboard 2.0 … I had hoped to hear Blackboard's philosophy on moving from a teacher centered learning environment towards a student centered learning environment using social software and web 2.0 tools and technolology (f.i. RSS-feeds for every Course our Coursearea).
But for Blackboard 2.0 is something different. First of all it is the merger of Blackboard with WebCT. That's not 2.0. The 2.0 component is to be found in the Blackboard beyound initiative. Blackboard is creating a number of webservices that are centrally hosted and can be integrated into Blackboard.
Currently Blackboard is working on 4 webservices:
- Learning objects catalogue
- Scolar.com (a kind of linked-in or openbc aimed at connecting people based on their discipline identity)
- E-portfolio's for life
- Collaborative Benchmarking and analysis (Institutions can upload statistics anonomously into a Blackboard database)
Merger of Blackboard and Webct
The merger of the Blackboard and webct companies is official. The two products will merge in time into one new learning environment. It starts with adding common API's for both systems, then the portal and content systems are added to webct, The new evaluation system (Caliper) is added and it ends with as Blackboard names it a next genetation learning system with a single code base. All changes are carried out using the application pack strategy.
Upcoming new features beyond release 7.1
- Blackboard announced it is working on a blogging tool that will be integrated in Blackboard. I haven't found more information about this initiative. But it is not the Learning Objects Buildingblock.
- An early warning system is being developed for monitoring student achievements
- Microsoft sharepint integration
- Caliper: evaluation and assessment system that can evaluate both Courses, programms and the institutions mission.
Blackboard for dummies
In april you can find Blackboard for dummies in your local bookstores.
Interesting third party Buildingblocks
I found two Buildingblocks that I think are worth exploring:
- Classtop
This is a buildingblock that allows teachers to create their courses offline using a client program on their computer or laptop. They can create a folder structure, drag and drop attachments to it, fill out the required and optional Blackboard fields and with a click synchronize with Blackboard. An additional feature is the what's new functionality: when a teacher is online he will receive notices if students have made contributions to his Blackboard courses.
- Tegrity Campus
This is a tool consisting of a mediaserver in combination with a buildingblock that allows teachers to easilly record a lecture (audio + video + powerpoint slides) and post it as a podcast in Blackboard. In the Blackboard Course a link is automatically created to an audio-only and audio+video file. Also RSS-feeds are created at which students can subscribe using both I-Tunes or a any other feedreader.
Comments on this entry that are posted using a Typekey account will immediately be visible. All other comments will be made visible on march 14.

Re: more playland oddities07/27/08
posted by Alexy
The old pier? Yes. If memory serves, it had a pipeline that was used to intake water for a swimming pool downtown. Don't know the name or location of the pool. When Playland was being torn down, you could see a circular hole, in the area where the restaurants and rides had been, almost the diameter of the merry-go-round, and maybe 15 to 20 feet deep. A pumping plant had been installed there to bring the water in from the ocean. Said plant was directly across the street from the pipeline pier.
Again, if memory serves. I'm open to being corrected, if, like "Rick", I was misinformed.

8. Paying the Piper? Some Questionable Public Sector Resignationsand `Career Moves.
Under the Passenger Transport Act 1990, regulations enacted thereunder, and the so-called "Code of Conduct" (?), certain illegal practices have been adopted, tolerated and even encouraged within the industry in order to harass and intimidate both non-owning taxi drivers and single operator taxi owners. A disturbing aspect here is that some key personnel, responsible for drafting, designing and ultimately approving amendments/regulations to the PassengerTransport Act 1990 ( PTA/90), resigned from either the Ministry of Transport or its Department.
Many of these individuals subsequently became either taxi plate holders and/or accepted employment with the NSW "Taxi Council" orwith one of its affiliated "Taxi Co-operatives". In short, key public servants have apparently left the public sector to work for the private sector in a way that appears to contravene the ethical standards governing public sector resignations prior to industry consultancies or appointments. The extent of ministerial knowledge orconcern with this questionable, and perhaps devious, practice is for you, the ICAC, to determine. I have evidence to present on these machinations and "career" shifts.

A new walk has been added to North Kesteven's ever-popular Stepping Out programme in time for the summer.
North Kesteven District Council, which organises the trails, has devised the new six-mile route in Heckington.
Included in the route are the historic, man-made Car Dyke which dates from around 125AD and runs from Lincoln to Peterborough, the Henry and Edward Godson Alms Houses, used to house the sick and needy until 1912, and St Andrew's Church.
It has been put together by the council's Leisure and Cultural Services team working in response to local demand with the support of the Parish Council.
It adds to an already extensive set of 18 walks ranging from three to nine miles, covering all parts of the district, ideal for the summer holidays.
Coun Lindsey Cawrey, Executive Board Member for Leisure and Cultural Services, said: "Information about the Heckington Heritage Trail is contained on the Stepping Out leaflet, giving people two great opportunities to take in the picturesque village, including the only eight-sailed working windmill in Europe and other places of national interest.
"We're committed to making sure people have places to go on their doorstep to improve their health and fitness through our Sports and Physical Activity Strategy and Obesity Pilot."
"The introduction of a new walk will fill a gap that we have in our Stepping Out route to the south of the district."
The Stepping Out walks network covers more than 130 miles of North Kesteven's unique heritage with each walk accompanied by a detailed map that can be downloaded from www.vis itlincolnshire.com/content/go-stepping-out
Alternatively, hard copies are available from NKDC's Tourism Team on 01529 414155 or by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com

super soft
- Fit: True To Size
- Quality: 4.0
- Value: 4.0
This is a very comfy shirt. The only reason I gave it a 4 is that the sleeves shrunk a bit after I washed it a few times (washed in cold water and hung it up to dry).
Enjoy the home changing room experience. Order today, only pay for what you keep.
Our new style Breton top in soft pure cotton rib with slash neckline and breast pocket. All new navy/white, coral white, and lapis white for SS16.
Style note:
'A wear-it-forever tee in timeless Breton stripes. Was there ever a finer partner for your favourite weekend jeans? Debate continues here in the office which is the colour of choice... this could go on some time.' Sarah, Buyer
Sleeve Length:
100% Cotton.
Washing Instruction:
Machine washable
This is a very comfy shirt. The only reason I gave it a 4 is that the sleeves shrunk a bit after I washed it a few times (washed in cold water and hung it up to dry).
Bought the white/coral after getting the ecru/black over the winter. Same lovely shape, same slightly large sizing (is it me or is everything at LTS getting bigger??), really lovely fresh colour for spring. Only draw back - fabric is thinner than the original, so it looses its shape quickly, which means it has to be washed after each wear to regain shape. However a really great cut, and if LTS did them in a heavier, dressier plain fabric they would be great for work!
I love this top in the classic white with navy stripes and wanted to buy another as I wear it so much. I was gutted that it is sold out in all the smaller sizes. I love that it is 100% cotton. Please bring it back in white/navy ASAP! I tried buying some of the other colours but thought they weren't quite so on point. Please keep making natural fibre clothes as well! Thanks!
PS: Just a heads up, my tops shrunk slightly in the was. But I think that is to be expected since they are 100% cotton.
Nice fit, goes slightly in and out, very flattering on most figures. I bought all three colours, and the white/coral and whit/navy is unfortunately slightly seethrough, so one has to wear nude or soft coloured tops or bra underneath. Love that they are 100% cotton and in fresh colours.
Bought the white/coral one and i love it. Lovely soft comfortable 100% cotton fabric, and i like to wear light-coloured clothes, especially in winter. Good fit.
My first Breton top in black and stone is lovely, thick and an excellent fit both in body and sleeve. I bought several more in other colours but found the fabrics to be thinner but the fit was still good. This one in navy and white is cut very wide in the neck, shoulder and the sleeves are way too long so the overall fit was too big. The fabric, is soft but thinner than the others. I was disappointed so sent it back.
I like the top - but mine is more cream and black. I wonder if it's me that got the order wrong. Anyway, I am wearing it with black jeans so it must be dark enough.
Love these tops so much that I bought the white and navy and the turquoise and white! Practical, comfortable, and tops that traverse the seasons. Bought them to take on my holiday cruise in March.

Moving started at 9:30 this morning (Fri., 4/1), right after the walkthrough! I brought a few things in, then headed to work. Afterwards, I grabbed my bed and a few items from the old place, and I'm staying in my new home tonight. It is SMALL, especially after getting some furniture inside! But it will be cozy, I think.
No Internet access as of yet, that won't be available until mid-April, so I'll be phone-blogging for a little bit. Oi. But at least it can be done!
I think about where I am at now, and I realize that just over two-and-a-half years ago, I was trying to die. I never once thought that I could recover to the point I am at now, it was an impossibility as far as I was concerned.
I'm grateful today for this opportunity to continue to grow; to realize that there is more to Life than simply Birth and Death; that the purpose we have is only discovered and fulfilled on a daily basis, revealed to us only in a way that our Higher Power (whatever/whoever/however it may be) can itself learn to demonstrate its love, compassion, care, and concerns -- through us, with us, for us, and in us.
I would have never known this without the first spark of hope which was given to me by a recovery center, and then an activities group, then the friends I've gained through the activities group, and then AA (and other 12-step programs) and those I met there, and all the recovery stones I have gathered on this wide path of Spirituality.
I am grateful today -- to be alive.
I guess I should stop blogging and go get some chairs and cookwear. I keep forgetting basic necessities. Yikes.
It's gonna be a long night.

What an honor to be a part of such a memorable event for Operation Smile!
Malibu locals came to the event hosted by Veronica at Veronica Malibu Skin & Body Care Center to view the premier of Operation Smile's "A Cure to War: Six Degress of Humanity", directed by Patrick Heaphy and narrated by Craig T. Nelson. The movie documents how Operation Smile began during the Vietnam War when a large group of American surgeons were sent to help return soldiers lost during the Vietnam War. These amazing doctors built relationships by performing operations to restore the smiles of the Vietnamese children.
We loved working with our favorite "dream team"- Kathleen Sacchi of The Fine Art of Events, Sue Moore of Let's Be Frank, and Steven Petrarca of Steven Petrarca Events. And as always, we are happy to support Smile Ambassador Roma Downey's efforts!
We were asked to create a menu of appetizers and sweet bites for the guests:
– Cones filled with Hot Truffle Popcorn
– Bite-sized "Reuben" on mini Soft Pretzels
– Crispy Potato Galette with Smoked Salmon and Dill Cream
-"Croque Monsieur" with Prosciutto, Gruyere, and Caramelized Onions
We also served seasonal granitas of green apple, grapefruit-vanilla, and watermelon alongside trays of assorted cookies and blondies.

To be on top of your personal financial situation, you don't need to be an expert in financial planning. With a little planning and discipline, you can live on what you make while putting some aside to grow your net worth.
The key to total happiness and success is money management. Investing capital wisely and guarding profits sensibly will increase your wealth. Allocating profits into capital to build a larger foundation for growth is acceptable, however, managing those profits wisely allows you to see return from your investments. Set aside a specific percentage of profits earned, and invest the rest in capital that can make you even more profit.
If you want to save money while traveling, eat at local places rather than tourist restaurants. Restaurants in busy tourist areas tend to be the highest priced, so find out where the locals eat. The food will taste better and it will likely be cheaper, as well.
Taking note of each and every expenditure is a great way to discover where your money tends to go. Though writing in a book that can easily be put away so you don't see it often will allow you to forget about it and not use it. It is more effective to keep it accessible on a wall chart or whiteboard. By seeing it frequently, you will be reminded to stay faithful to it.
Buying items on sale can add up to big budget savings. Reconsider your brand loyalties, instead favoring products for which you have coupons. If you usually buy one brand of dish soap and can save money with a coupon on another brand, go with the one that is cheaper.
Avoid paying large fees when you invest. Long-term investment comes with a variety of fees. These fees will reduce your total profit. Brokers with unreasonably high commissions and funds that charge a lot for management are both things you should stay away from.
Swap out your old incandescent light bulbs with the highly-efficient new compact florescent lamps. Your new CFL bulbs will significantly reduce both your carbon footprint and your energy bill. CFLs also last considerably longer than most older-styled light bulbs. Also, you will be saving money by not having to constantly buy new bulbs.
Eating out less often can save money. Making your own meals is cheaper, as well healthier for you.
Everytime you receive a check, always save some money. Do not expect to save money if you simply plan to save what is left. Additionally, setting it aside right away prevents you from spending the money on things you do not need. You will know what you need money for before your next check comes.
As proven above, everyone can make changes to live their lives within their financial means and increase their personal worth, leading to the happy financial life that they desire. Just take these tips to heart and put them to use to build your skills to budget, pay off debt and save for a rainy day.

Comments about Fern Conger Palleson
Life is a dream to some.
Drifting without a goal.
Life is a tragedy to others,
Without knowledge of the soul.
Life can be what you make it.
With courage undaunted and strong.
If you try to do the best you can.
Instead of just drifting along.
Life is earnest, Life is demanding,
When we live by Universal Law.
For the laws are unfailing and true,
For the flawless action we feel awe.
Universal Law was in the beginning,
And will last for ever more.
When we live by these Laws
Life will cease to be a chore.
So live a life of one who ...

Coaches are paid on a percentage basis based on the number of years they've coached. The district, through the athletic department, had budgeted to pay $65,487 in FICA and retirement benefits for coaches. That expense could be eliminated through contracts.
The district's athletic department had budgeted to spend $515,994 this year, $120,000 of which comes through ticket sales and donations. The remaining $395,000 comes from the district's general fund and was subject to the first round of cuts instituted by the board of education. Requested to reduce his budget by $74,000, Wilson actually deleted $85,000 in expenses.
Salaries and wages, without benefits, account for $267,397 in expenses. Individual salaries range from a low of $2,700 to a high of $7,500 paid to girls basketball coach Kurt Kakaviska, who is on the top step of the salary scale. Basketball and football coaches receive 15 percent of step salaries. The remaining coaches' salaries are computed using a 12-percent figure.

This body wash is one for those who love natural products. As with all Eco Store products, it's not tested on animals, comes in recyclable packaging, has a FULL ingredient listing on the back (so you know exactly what you are using) and is plant/mineral based with no hidden chemicals.
This body wash has a slight coconut scent, but sometimes I don't even notice it. It's very subtle and isn't overpowering which makes it nice to use on a daily basis. I enjoy using this product in the bath at night, because at night I use my bath time to unwind after a day at work and the last thing I want is overpowering "wake up" scents lathered all over my body.
It's a very gentle formula and I doesn't irritate my sensitive skin - even on my shaving rash-prone legs which is a big bonus. The formula is a clear liquid and I found that it lathers up nicely on my shower puff. A little goes a long way so you don't have to use large amounts of product to have enough to work your way around the body.
The packaging is so cute and I love that each fragrance (there are three others: Orange and Patchouli and Rose and Cardamon) has a different design on the bottle.
You can find these products at Ritchies Supermarkets, Woolworths, Safeways and Natural Health stores (or you can click here to find your closest stockist).
To find out more, you can visit the EcoStore website here - they have so many amazing, natural products!

Music of The Day (MoTD): Sondre Lerche - Lucky GuyTuesday, October 21, 2014
I've listened to Sondre Lerche's songs since I was in high school, but I've started to follow his musics for 4 years ago. It was Java Jazz Festival 2011 where I finally watched his live performance, awesome memories! I also met some new friends who also enjoy listening Sondre Lerche, and we always keep updated each others.
Some people might don't know very well about him. His phenomenon songs are "Two Way Monologue" and "Heartbeat Radio". But, speaking of him, I got big news to share! He'll come to Jakarta, and I've already purchased the tickets! YEAY!
Also, several months ago, he has released his new album, Please, and it's great album. I really miss to hear his new songs so badly! So, right after I got the album, I listened to the whole of it, and I favorited one song. Guess what, I really like Lucky Guy. I don't know exactly why I like very much this song. But, one thing I could describe is it is a VERY Sondre's song!
Sorry, I couldn't find it at Soundcloud, but you could hear it from this site:
Here's the official video of Lucky Guy
and, like usual, below is the lyrics... hope you enjoy guys! xoxo Angger
Lucky Guy
I am such a lucky guy
to have meant the world to you
Held on, to you, almost, held my own
I am such a lucky guy
to have seen the world through you
So hell bent out of shape tonight
I won't lie
Baby, you broke me
I am truly a lucky guy
You are such a lucky girl
to have loved and believed it
By design, from within your bones
You are such a lucky girl,
my voice breaks so I'll sing it
Carve out one final tune tonight
I won't lie
Baby, you broke me
I am truly a lucky guy
We are such a lucky two,
in the shape of an island
Less so, as we approach mainland
We were such a lucky two,
so immune to the motion
So untouchable till tonight
I won't lie
Baby, you broke me
I am truly a lucky guy

Japan's 20-Year Government Bond Yields Go Negative
Yields on Japanese bonds have plunged further into negative territory, leaving income-hungry income investors struggling to catch up.
On Wednesday, the 20-year Japanese bond yield fell to negative 0.005%, down from a one percent yield as recently as last December. The yield on Japan's 30-year government bonds dropped to a record-low 0.015%. The payout on the 40-year Japanese government bond dropped below the 0.05% level.
The drop in yields is being blamed on Britain's referendum to exit the European Union. The flight for safety has sent investors rushing for safe-haven assets. Japan has become the most popular destination, which has seen a massive inflow of capital since the Brexit vote last month.
The stampede has pushed down yields in bond markets elsewhere. On Wednesday, the yields on 10-year and 30-year U.S. government bonds hit record lows, closing the session at 1.39% and 2.1% respectively. The yield on 50-year Swiss government bonds plunged to a low of negative 0.0119%.
As a result of negative interest rates, bondholders must now pay for the privilege of lending money. The 15-year bond yield closed the trading sessions at negative 0.1283%. Investors will now pay the Japanese government $0.13 a year for every $1,000 lent to hold their money.
Yield-starved investors are unlikely to find relief anytime soon. Last week, the Bank of England hinted it might cut interest rates to contain the fallout from the country's Brexit referendum. Such uncertainty could also kick any U.S. Fed rate hikes further down the road.

Manuel Pellegrini has stated that Manchester City will be going for the three points against Chelsea on Saturday at Stamford Bridge.
The Citizens are fourth in the Premier League table and are not yet certain of a top four finish.
And speaking ahead of this weekend clash with the Blues, Pellegrini said in his press conference that he is giving every competition City are taking part in all the necessary attention.
"I am not prioritising any competition. The best way to do it is to play well, win our games. Our target is to win the next nine points," Pellegrini said.
Commenting on City's Champions League semi-final draw that pairs them with Real Madrid, Pellegrini described it as a tough one.
"It's a difficult draw, doesn't matter who we were going to draw, it was always going to be difficult. The motivation is the semi-final," he said.
On the availability of players for the game against Chelsea, the Chilean ruled out skipper Vincent Kompany, Raheem Sterling and David Silva.
"Out are Silva (ankle), Sterling has started working but hopefully he'll be ready Tuesday, all the other players are fit," Pellegrini explained.
"Kompany is working but he is not in the squad list for tomorrow. I hope he will play on Tuesday.
"Yaya, 100 per cent fit is an important player and can make a difference starting or playing 30 minutes.
"It's very important to have all our players so I can choose the best to play. They played well (against PSG) as they have done before."
He also commented on the impact Kevin De Brune has had on the team since returning from injury.
"He's (De Bryune) very important for me. He's young, it depends how he improves, he keeps the ball and he scores. I think he's improving."
