|All the engagements
Industry 9, the high engagement, colorful, US made hub company from North Carolina introduced a new, high engagement hub this week. You maybe saw that somewhere on social media. If not, it is a new, closer tolerance hub that engages slightly quicker than the old ones.
Kind of a big deal, but in the grand scheme of things, it is a minor curiosity. That said, you'd think that the Pope had declared he was an atheist, by the reactions I saw, and I think that is just weird. Some folks declared you should just buy another, "instant engagement hub" from another US company. Some said the math was wrong that I-9 used. Some folks said the new hubs would have more drag......yada,yada,yada......
Here's my take: High engagement hubs are okay as long as they are (1) strong, (2) free rolling, and (3) don't weigh a lot. Otherwise, I could care less what the engagement is, what the degrees of free play is, or what have you. Why? Because I never have failed to make a move, climb a hill, or accelerate due to "lack of engagement". Now, I have had free hubs slip, pawls crap out, and bearings go bad. Those are far, far higher on my list of concerns than "free play" or whatever. But don't get into it with someone who is a free hub zealot. Sheesh!
Oh yeah. Noises. Free hub "clackety-clack". Some folks get bent about the noises, or lack thereof. Honestly, I usually tune that out if it exists and don't mind if it doesn't. I've got far more important things to pay attention to when I ride, like wild flowers, the clouds, how the Sun hits that field "just so", and getting up the next hill. Your mileage may vary.
But yeah, I like anodized hubs, US made stuff, and wheels. So, I may be getting a set of these this year.
|Salsa Cycles twitter account posted this yesterday.
In the cycling industry there is a concept called "product cycle", in which a certain concept or way of making something serves the market and then is "retired", redesigned from the "ground up", or what have you. The full suspension line up from Salsa Cycles seems to have run its course, judging by the lack of available product, so it seemed reasonable to think yesterday that a teaser seen on twitter was the harbinger of something new.
Words can be hints as well as images, so the text on the Tweet I saw referred to "rustling" and of course, you probably remember the Ponyrustler FS bike Salsa did for a few years. Yes.....that could as easily be a way to put us off the trail too. I realize that. But none the less, here we have a hint at something new coming soon.
You know, Frostbike is coming up next weekend, right? Well, there is a good chance that whatever is being hinted at here will be revealed then. If it isn't ready, then I'd say Sea Otter would be your next best release date. But I am betting Frostbike will be the venue that will be the reveal for whatever the heck it is we're looking at here.
Frostbike! Ah......the memories! I recall the good times well. I haven't been to a Frostbike for several years now. The reason being is that my workplace is in charge of the "getting registered" bit and well.......it never happens. So, once again, I will not be at Frostbike. Just know that it is beyond my control to do anything about that these days.
|Waterloo is to be commended for at least attempting to look out for cyclists and peds.
Multi-use paths, (bike paths), are great. Recreation is important, but many communities are just now figuring out that plain ol recreating doesn't promote long term healthy lifestyles. (generally speaking here) However; practical, purposeful routes- routes that actually are useful and take you somewhere and back again- really do help communities get more healthy. People are apt to use routes to schools, stores, and work places more often than recreational trails and therefore they become healthier, they reduce "traffic", and cut down on gas and oil use. That is great to see happening where it is happening and all, but if you don't maintain routes in Winter, then everything comes to a screeching halt.
This goes for pedestrians as well. If you think people stop using routes for foot and cycle traffic in Winter, well, you haven't seen all the tracks I'm seeing out there. Tracks of people, bicycles, people with walkers, carts, and people with small children in strollers. There are a LOT of people that cannot, won't, or don't often drive a motor vehicle. I know it seems crazy, but it is true.
That's why I find a bit of pride welling up inside me when I see how well Waterloo, Iowa takes care of its paths in Winter. The image here is from my commute on Thursday morning, just two short days after a major snowstorm. Nicely done! I was able to make it to work by bicycle easily since the City of Waterloo has chosen to take care of its people. Thank you!
And that is a wrap for this week. I hope y'all have a fantastic weekend!

Pasadena Police Chief John Perez is planning to announce changes to the city's body worn camera policy that are intended to provide more transparency, according to a department spokesperson.
If the department approves the new policy, video footage of critical incidents could be released no more than 45 days after the event, according to Lt. Jason Clawson. Perez is expected to make the announcement of the changes sometime in September.
The Pasadena Weekly has also learned that Perez has formed a special committee of citizens, including some of the department's biggest critics, to advise the Chief on community and policy issues.
"We're looking at what other agencies are doing," Clawson said.
When it comes to body cameras, "We're looking at how we can roll out footage of critical incidents 45 days after the event. If we can do things better we will," Clawson said.
Pasadena and Alhambra are the only departments in the San Gabriel Valley that employ body-worn cameras, according to Clawson.
There is no law mandating the release of footage of body-cam footage shot by cameras officers wear while on duty or dashboard footage shot from police cruisers.
Local advocacy groups have called for mandatory release of the footage since the city adopted the policy in late 2016.
The current policy gives the department the ability to release the footage, but it also allows information to be withheld if it is deemed to be part of an investigation or if there are privacy concerns.
"CICOPP [Coalition for Increased Civilian Oversight of Pasadena Police] and POP [Pasadenans Organizing for Progress] have long advocated that footage of critical incidents be released as soon as possible and not be left to the discretion of the police chief," said attorney Elbie "Skip" HIckambottom Jr.
Hickambottom will review the proposed changes to the policy next month along with other members of the newly formed Community Advisory Committee.
The proposed changes to the policy could be rolled out as early as September, according to Clawson.
Besides Hickambottom, the committee includes local activists Juliana Serrano, who serves as the senior associate for the Office for Creative Connections and Peace and Justice at All Saints Church, Immigration Activist Pablo Alvarado, local retiree Bertha Williams, Old Pasadena Management District President and CEO Steve Mulheim, Tarek Shawky, a local defense attorney, and Armenian National Committee member Shoghig Yepremian.
"Pasadena in many areas is a step ahead of other police agencies," said Vice Mayor John Kennedy. "The implementation of body- worn cameras in the Pasadena Police Department is a positive to the community and the police. It holds us all accountable as a city. The policy [change] is another step in the right direction."
If it is approved by City Manager Steve Mermell, the new policy would match changes made by the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) earlier this year. The LAPD changed its policy following a recommendation from the department's civilian oversight board that requires the release of video from critical incidents — including fatal shootings, in-custody deaths and the use of police force that results in a death — within 45 days, in most cases.
In June, the LAPD voluntarily released body-camera footage showing a two-hour standoff with a man who died in custody after being shot with a bean bag. The release marked the first time the LAPD voluntarily released body-camera footage to the media.
News of proposed changes to the Pasadena police policy came on the same day city officials released dashboard camera footage that appears to dispute the claims of two women who said they were sexually assaulted by police officers during a traffic stop.
Clawson said the new policy had nothing to do with a $25 million lawsuit filed by the two women.
On July 17, the city released footage of the 2016 police stop.
Sharell Thompson, 43, and her daughter Sharaya Brown, 22, claimed that Thompson was forced to show her breasts and Brown was fondled and molested during a "nightmare of a traffic stop."
City officials decided to release the dashboard camera footage last week, which does not appear to substantiate the claims of misconduct. The incident took place before body-worn cameras were issued to the department's 275 employees, and there was no additional footage of the incident.
"The only modification of video of the incident was the intentional blurring of the license plate number of the vehicle, done only to protect the involved individuals," said Pasadena Public Information Officer Lisa Derderian. "Because the incident occurred in 2016, it was prior to the implementation of body-worn cameras on Pasadena police officers. The city of Pasadena stands by the truth."
Besides that incident, city officials have previously released footage from two other incidents. In one case, much like the Thompson and Brown incident, the footage seemed to absolve the officers, and in another instance release of the footage fanned community outrage.
In December, Mermell announced he was publicly releasing dashboard footage and body-worn camera footage of a violent police stop involving Altadena resident Christopher Ballew, which revealed Ballew was repeatedly punched, struck with a baton and at one point had his face slammed into the asphalt.
The city released six videos of that incident, including footage from the dashboard camera, one of the officers and officers that responded to the event. Officers Zachary Lujan and Lerry Esparza are on desk duty pending the results of an internal affairs investigation.
In January, city officials conducted a media briefing at Pasadena police headquarters to play a 911 recording and show police footage of the 2017 police stop and arrest of Kelvin Jankins, an Altadena man who filed a lawsuit claiming police falsely arrested him after an unreasonable search and seizure. The lawsuit further claims officers and city jailers "threatened, assaulted, battered" and subjected Jankins to excessive force, which left him physically and mentally injured after he was taken into custody following a traffic stop on Navarro Avenue near Howard Street.
Police appeared to follow procedure in the video, which did not show Jankins being assaulted by officers.
Under the current policy, officers can review video of critical incidents, including shootings and use-of-force cases, before making a statement. That policy is already in place regarding video footage taken by cameras in police cruisers and cannot be changed since it is part of an agreement between the department and the Pasadena Police Officers Association (PPOA).
Allowing the officer to view the footage also forces the officer to make a mandatory statement. Officers are prohibited from tampering with or dismantling any hardware or software component of the body-worn camera. Also, officers are not required to activate the cameras if it compromises their safety to do so.
"We want to get ahead of the media and speculation when a critical event occurs," said Clawson. "We have to put the video out there. It's about transparency."

Throughout his deplorable tenure, Obama raped and destroyed one country after another – deploring peace, systematically rejecting it. Millions of casualties attest to his barbarity. He remains unaccountable for appalling high crimes.
Trump is untested. He's yet to take office. It's unknown what geopolitical course he'll follow. Will he continue America's longstanding imperial policy or go another way?
Will he be a warrior or peace president? Will his tenure be historic or disastrous? Will he do the right thing or continue the horrors of Obama, Bush/Cheney and the Clintons?
Humanity holds its breath to find out. Interviewed by Italy's Canale 5, Assad expressed "cautious optimism" because it's unknown what geopolitical way Trump will choose.
He's hopeful for better Russia/US ties, saying "(g)ood relations between these two superpowers will benefit almost the entire world, including small states like Syria. In this regard, we can say that a solution for Syria is possible."
Defeating terrorism remains the task at hand, supported by Obama and his rogue allies. "If you want to solve the problem of (modern) terrorism, you need to destroy its core, the (Saudi-based) ideology of Wahhabism," he stressed.
In a separate Italian Il Giornale broadsheet statement, he blamed Western and rogue regional states for supporting terrorism. Halting its threat requires ceasing what they currently back, he stressed.
On December 29, Assad met with European Parliament and Russian upper house Federation Council MPs – in Damascus to show support for the Syrian people, congratulate them for liberating Aleppo, and stress their rejection of foreign interference in Syrian affairs.
Assad said their visit showed Syria, Russia and European countries have common interests. If EU ones want conflict resolution, it's crucial they stop backing terrorists and rescind illegal sanctions, mostly harming ordinary Syrians.
It's vital they support the right of the Syrian people to resolve their own internal issues, free from foreign interference, Assad stressed.
Russia and Iran are valued allies. It's time for America and the West to get on board for peace, renouncing war, allying to eliminate the region's terrorist threat by no longer supporting it.
That'll be Trump's challenge once in office. Will he prove up to it or be just another dirty politician?

Middle Quest
After a digital single on Optimo Music Digital Danceforce, Optimo Music welcomes Bergsonist to the main label with a full album. Ridiculously talented and prolific, Bergsonist is one of the most interesting, thoughtful, and important artists of modern times. Selwa Abd, aka Bergsonist, is a New York-based artist and musician originally from Morocco. She is the founder of Bizaarbazaar, a music platform and publication that publishes podcasts and interviews by DJs and producers from around the world. Under the guise Bergsonist, derived from Gilles Deleuze's Bergsonism (1988), she uses a variety of media to investigate social resonance through divergent conceptual aesthetics (minimalism, techno, and music concrete, to name a few). Through her work, she explores notions of identity, memory, and social politics. In 2017, she started Pick Up The Flow, a resource to promote congregation and exchange between peers. Currently, co-run with Stephen Decker. In 2019, she co-founded 3afak with DJ Sanna, a collective that aims to empower Arab women's creative vision in New York.
Words about the album: "Middle Ouest is an ode to my history, present and future self. Like a sonic autobiography, It's the first body of work that realistically depicts my identity. It's a statement towards all the people who tried to put me into a box. I'm not a box but a genre-less ocean. I don't make genres, I just make music I feel making in the moment. It's all about capturing the moment in a given time. If the aesthetic happens to be house or techno then it is. But I'm not a techno artist... I'm just a free sonic 'voyageur'. I make music as I feel the world; it can be dark, jovial, weird... I mirror the feelings into sonic compositions. However, the only variables that never change in this equation are the message and intention."

Jacksonville State beats Eastern Illinois 27-20
JACKSONVILLE, Ala. (AP) — Darius Jackson returned a fourth-quarter interception for a touchdown, and Jacksonville State remained undefeated in the Ohio Valley Conference with a 27-20 win over Eastern Illinois on Saturday.
Jackson's touchdown made it 27-17 for the Gamecocks (9-1, 7-0) with 11:33 to play and the defense held EIU (5-6, 5-2) to a 20-yard field goal and two four-down possessions from there.
Eli Jenkins threw for 288 yards with a touchdown and 153 yards going to Josh Barge. Ruben Gonzalez added 113 yards receiving and DaMarcus James ran 26 times for 112 yards and a touchdown.
After Jacksonville State built a 20-7 halftime lead, the Panthers cut the deficit to 20-17 on Nick Bruno's 41-yard field goal and Taylor Duncan's 2-yard touchdown run.
Jalen Whitlow threw for 137 yards and ran for 78 and a touchdown, but threw two interceptions — both in the second half.

Local Artist + Craft Beer = Narrows Brewing Seasonal Siren Series
Local Gig Harbor charcoal artist Lita Dawn never imagined she would be designing beer labels, but this summer that changed. She was approached by Narrows Brewing Co., in Tacoma, to help them create a series of mermaid inspired labels for a seasonal beer rotation in stores. "They provided me with some elements that were important for the first siren of the series; a moonbeam, pearls, red hair - then I had to work around the space limitations of the label itself based on the brewery name and logo. It turned out to be a lot more challenging to achieve the effect we were after than I thought it would be", said Lita Dawn. Each label also includes the legend of the mermaid on its side panel. The legends are intended to be a splash of entertainment. "Drinking a great craft beer already means you're having a good time, so we just wanted to tell the mermaid's tale and have some fun with it", said Sue Wagner, one of the brewery owners who helped Lita Dawn with the label design. "Now that we're done with the first one, we are already busy working on the next".
Currently Narrows Brewing has two beer styles in stores; Giant Pacific Octopus IPA and Galloping Gertie Golden Ale. The beer style of the third bottle going into stores will change with the seasons. The plan for the first year rotation is Imperial Red Ale, Imperial Stout, Hibiscus Saison, and then Belgian Blond. Each year they may replace one or two of the seasonals with a new style.
"Channary", the name of the Imperial Red Ale, means "moon faced girl". It is a deep amber colored beer and contains 9.4% abv. Crafted by head brewer, Joe Walts, this strong, full bodied beer was created with dark caramel which provides a rich flavor without making the beer too sweet. A generous addition of hops lend a citrus note to the beer. "One of the things that people often point out about our strong beers is that they don't taste as strong as they are. Making a lot of alcohol is stressful on the yeast, and can result in a lot of harsh flavors that people associate with strong beer. We try really hard to keep our yeast happy and healthy, and the smoothness of our strong beers is one of the places where it really shows. It's also one of the things I really enjoy about drinking the Imperial Red" Joe states. Joe has just taken the widely known Imperial Red and given it to the Pacific Northwest for our own local presence of this flavorful beer.
Channary is being bottled now and can be found in the Narrows Brewing Taproom, and will be on store shelves in November. Look for the Imperial Stout to start showing up in February.
Narrows Brewing Co. just celebrated its one year anniversary in July. They are located on the waterfront in the Narrows Marina at the bottom of S. 19th Street, Tacoma. They also serve wine and hard cider, and have rooms available for booking private parties. Joe gives tours of the brewery the first Tuesday of every month at 7pm.

Question about 2005 Ford Mustang
HOW CAN I TAKE OUT MY STEREO FROM MY 2005 MUSTANG, A CD GOT STUCK IN IT... My Shaker 500 ate all my CD's and I get a message saying CD error when I try to eject. I took it in to Ford and they said it needed a new head unit $400. I purchased a unit that had been pulled from a new car for upgrade and now the dealership says that the brackets don't line up and the plugs in my car ('05) are male where the new unit is female. Is there a way to adapt the new unit to my car? Melinda
Posted by melinda60 on
Ditto. My Shaker 500 in my 2005 ate a few of my CD's as well. The strange thing is that I seem to be able to load another CD in the same slot and it will play. I'm not sure what's weirder, it playing another CD or me being stupid enough to put another in :). I hate the unit anyway so any help in either removing the Shaker 500 and/or a good replacement that will integrate seamlessly (or close to it) into the dash would be appreciated. Thanks.
I have the problem with the radio too. The battery was replaced and now the radio will not work. (stuck on phono) Ford wants 60.00 an hr. to reset or tell me I need a new stero system. Frustrated!!!!!
lol i have the same thing my will not read just said eorr i need to know how to take the dash apart so i can take my radio out my self and fix it my self
I have a 07 GT and just recently, the cd player went NUTS!!! I cannot eject or load any cd's and the display shows initializing. Also, the stereo stays on constantly and chatters whenever I open the doors? It ruined one car battery and the dealer has no idea what the problem is? I think Ford needs to look into this and have a recall on the shaker 500 systems!
Posted on Jul 30, 2011
my 2007 with the shaker 500 does and says the same thing. I agree with others they should have done a recall on them.
I have the same problem with my '07 GT. Very annoying. Of course, it's my favorite cd's that are stuck in there.
I have the exact same problem with my 05 shaker 500--okay that's 3 of us. We need a recall and a free new stereo system with labor included
Posted on Sep 16, 2008
I have the same problem too! I hardly ever use the CD player in my 2008 Mustang, and the first time it happened it was practically new and I thought it was just a fluke. Today it ate my brand new Etta James CD.... I am mad!
i have similar problem 2005 mustang my shaker 500 stopped working when I need to load the cd it does not read it sure I bought a used shaker and ebay it came out from a 2007 mustang the only thing diferent is the plug for antenna you'll need an adapter radio shock told me you can't get it at best buy I made 1 myself after all done I cannot load cd it says cd error I hope that helps someone
Same here. My 2008 Mustang shaker stereo system will not function and reads CD Error each time I press any button. Now I cannot eject any of my CD's or play any Cd's at all. So frustrating.
Same issue here. However, mine happened suddenly after a recent auto accident. All I see is CD Error (no CD's in it) and when I try to load any it flashes "initializing" and does nothing else. Weird.
Posted on Jul 09, 2010
All problems but no solutions. I found only one type of solution. To get the CDs out, hit load and try to put a CD in even if it already has one, it should stop and eject the stuck disc, after the CDs are removed, disconnect the negative side of the battery for a couple minutes to try and let the shaker reboot itself. Like I said i found this solution and haven't tried it yet but I am going to try because i am having the same problem with my 2005 500 shaker
Posted on Nov 05, 2012
I have problems with my 06 shaker 500. A couple times a year the system will freeze, no music or anything. I have to shut my car off and let it sit a minute then restart the car and it will finally work. It also recently started initializing when I put a c.d. in. I had it replaced a few years ago when it started all this, they clearly replaced it with a new unit but the new unit was still doing the same thing, but after the warranty was up.
Posted on Jan 26, 2013
I have the same problem. mine pulls the cd's in and then push them out so i just keep my finger there preventing it from pushing it out. It then loads but sometimes it doesn't see the cd in that slot so what i do is to push the load button and then select that slot WITHOUT putting a cd in.It then re reads that slot and then find that cd.You might have to do that with all the slots.
Posted on Sep 27, 2008
Start the car, turn on radio to FM, press and hold #3 and #6 buttons. (This will perform a test) then press and hold #2, then press the CD Eject button (this clears any codes), then shut off radio and car.
Posted on Oct 03, 2016
My husband replaced the battery 2 days ago and my Shaker 500 has been going nuts, turn the car off and the CD player cycles even after turning off the unit and opening the door. He's trying to find the problem (and since I'm married to a technician I'm confident he will) but this is frustrating.
Posted on Nov 24, 2013
Here's the solution! (1.)
Remove unit (if you're not sure how to there are good visual instructions on
Youtube). (2.) Only unscrew the metal cover that has the
rubber screw on the back. (3.) Reinstall unit minus the metal cover.(4.) Remove
the cd's either by hand or by the eject button when it starts cycling (you may
have to take a pen or pencil and probe downward to make the "cd catching
mechanism" grab the cd. If it doesn't catch
the cd's hole the error codes pop up. (5) Inspect for any broken plastic slots;
slot #2 was broken on mine, the cd kept getting out of alignment causing the
error msg's. (6) Watch the mechanics as the cd exchanger cycles to see if you
notice any thing else funny.

Undoubtly there's a bunch of us. My wife has had the radio replaced under warranty and it's gone belly-up again. Anyone know a good after market replacement that will fit in our last Ford product.
Posted on Oct 30, 2008
Ford won't replace or help with anything! My 2005 transmission went out at 62,000 miles. I'll never buy another Ford!!

The abstract is available online and can be accessed via the below link or on the AAN meeting website at www.aan.com.
Presentation Details:
- Title:Open Label Extension (OLE) of Phase 2 Multicenter Study of Ublituximab (UTX), a Novel Glycoengineered Anti-CD20 Monoclonal Antibody (mAb) in Patients with Relapsing Forms of Multiple Sclerosis (RMS)
— Presentation Date & Time:
Tuesday May 7, 2019, 5:30 PM– 6:30 PM ET
— Session Title: Poster Session P3:
MS Clinical Trials and Therapeutic Research
— Presenter:
Edward Fox, MD, PhD, Central Texas Neurology Consultants, Round Rock, TX
— Location:
Pennsylvania Convention Center
— Abstract Number: 2055
These data support the ongoing, fully enrolled, international Phase 3 program evaluating ublituximab for the treatment of RMS. The Phase 3 trials, entitled ULTIMATE I and ULTIMATE II, are being conducted under Special Protocol Assessment (SPA) agreement with the
Following the presentation, the data presented will be available on the Publications page of the Company's website at www.tgtherapeutics.com.
TG Therapeutics is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the acquisition, development and commercialization of novel treatments for B-cell malignancies and autoimmune diseases. Currently, the company is developing two therapies targeting hematological malignancies and autoimmune diseases. Ublituximab (TG-1101) is a novel, glycoengineered monoclonal antibody that targets a specific and unique epitope on the CD20 antigen found on mature B-lymphocytes. TG Therapeutics is also developing umbralisib (TGR-1202), an oral, once-daily inhibitor of PI3K-delta. Umbralisib uniquely inhibits CK1-epsilon, which may allow it to overcome certain tolerability issues associated with first generation PI3K-delta inhibitors. Both ublituximab and umbralisib, or the combination of which is referred to as "U2", are in Phase 3 clinical development for patients with hematologic malignancies, with ublituximab also in Phase 3 clinical development for Multiple Sclerosis. Additionally, the Company has recently brought its anti-PD-L1 monoclonal antibody, TG-1501, its covalently-bound Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase (BTK) inhibitor, TG-1701, as well as its anti-CD47/CD19 bispecific antibody, TG-1801, into Phase 1 development. TG Therapeutics is headquartered in New York City.

Editor's Note:
The one with the cliches
December 4, 2015
It has been a very trying quarter for The Easterner. With the switch to a new design, a staff that grew from less than 10 to 35 and some behind-the-scenes changes, we finally made it to issue 10. Honestly, I don't know how we made it, but we did. That may sound pretty negative, but I do not think people understand what it takes to create a newspaper every week. It's tough work.
Thank you to the readers, first and foremost. The compliments we get on the paper really do help to boost morale. My staff and I appreciate our readers' constant support and we hope more people become interested in what The Easterner has to offer.
To my staff, thank you for all of the hard work you have put into this quarter and thank you for putting up with me and all the changes you've been through. I promise next quarter is going to be a lot better.
Lastly, I hope the readers of The Easterner have an amazing break and that your holidays are filled with joy and cheer and all that jazz.
See you next year, EWU.

Total Car Park Solutions
Help, I Received a Total Parking Solutions Parking Ticket
Isn't ironic that Parking Charges are called fines? Because it isn't fine, usually it's grossly unfair and the amount you're asked to pay is always excessive compared to the number of minutes that you overstayed.
We've all been there. First you dash back to the car after you suddenly realise the time. You drive off in the hope that you got there in the nick of time and then a few days later there's an ominous letter on your doormat. Or you get back to your car and you find the tell-tale yellow sticker on the window.
Sent from a professional sounding firm, you see the words Parking Charge Notice in black and white staring you in the face along with a clear image of your vehicle number plate accompanied by the time stamp. Irrefutable evidence that they are right and that you are wrong.
So, you feel you have no option but to cough up, right? It's always the same format too. Pay £60/£100 now or pay hundreds if you've not paid by X date. Maybe you've ignored one of these letters before, but before you know it, you're getting threatening letters which threaten court action and CCJs. Some people say ignore it, it will go away, but one or two friends will have been stung.
What Do I Do to Stop My Total Parking Solutions Parking Ticket?
You speak to Parking Fines Limited. We are a professional representative acting on your behalf to deal with the parking company for you. Companies like this know that most people don't have the financial backing or legal know-how to be able to challenge these cases in court. But the truth is, if you did, you'd almost certainly win because these companies exploit loopholes which courts of law do not appreciate.
We're guessing though really the main reason you're on this page is because you haven't the time to sort this out yourself, or you'd be doing it, right?!
- So, we appeal to the parking firm, or complain to the landowner, we represent you and they drop the claim. Why? Because they know we're not afraid of them. We don't lose to Parking Companies and their bully-boy tactics and quite simply we don't let them push us around.
- If you have already appealed to the parking company and that has been turned down we can do the second stage appeal for you, even if the case has been sent to a debt collector , or worse still a court claim we can deal with it!
Don't waste £60 or £100 on paying a fine or risk an appeal which will get rejected. If you use our services, all you pay is £18 for the peace of mind of carrying on with business as usual.
How Does Parking Fines Ltd Work?
It's easy. You have two options:
Fill in the appeals form by clicking here or scroll to the bottom of the page and give us all the relevant details.
Send a photo of your ticket via WhatsApp to 0203 411 3340
In either case, we'll come back to you and our service is guaranteed, Simple!
Who are TPS?
Total Car Park Solutions (TPS) are a nationwide Private Parking Company who offer a large amount or permit parking and have a contract with Manchester Tram Link
Their Office address is Total Parking Solutions Ltd 3 Kings Court Kettering Venture Park Kettering NN15 6WJ
The Parking Company are members of the British Parking Association. Parking Companies must be members of a trade association in order to get keeper details from the DVLA. Obtaining keeper details costs the Parking Company £2.50 each time.
Can I use POPLA?
Yes they do and we know how to construct winning POPLA appeals against this company.
How Do Total Car Park Solutions (TPS) Operate?
They run a mixture of ANPR and Warden control areas.
- If the Parking Charge Notice is neither paid or appealed it is very common for the parking to company to pass the details over to the likes of Debt Recovery Plus or Trace Debt Recovery. This will also happen if the appeal is denied at POPLA.
Do they do court?
Yes they do on a fairly regular basis

A father and son are facing almost $20,000 in fees and fines after New York authorities said they removed about 42 tons of trash from their property. Brookhaven Town officials said they took away tires, car parts, hoses and other trash - about 85,000 pounds in all - piled up on a residential lot in Mastic Beach on eastern Long Island.
The site on Daisy Drive also has a single-family home, where John W. Mallgren and his son, John R. Mallgren, live.
Authorities said the Mallgrens will have to pay $8,742 for removal of the trash, which filled 10 garbage trucks. They also face fines. The house was condemned last month.
Neither Mallgren could immediately be reached for comment.

Published in the July 8, 2004 issue of the journal Neuron, the findings identify mitochondria as the focus of ALS toxicity and provide the first explanation of how a mutant protein called SOD1 that occurs in all cells in the body is damaging only to specific neuron cells. The result is ALS, a progressive degeneration of motor nerve cells in the spinal cord that leads to wasted muscles and premature death in middle-aged adults.
Found in all cells, mitochondria provide cellular energy in their role as the body's power generators. In addition, mitochondria are intricately involved in a process called apoptosis, or programmed cell death, which is the body's normal method of disposing of damaged, unwanted or unneeded cells.
"We believe that when the mutant SOD1 binds to mitochondria, it affects the ability of these components to generate cell energy," said the study's senior author, Don Cleveland, Ph.D., a UCSD professor of medicine, neurosciences, and cellular and molecular medicine, and a faculty member of the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research.
He added that "the SOD1 may also tip the balance and induce mitochondria to send a cell death signal to the motor neurons."
In laboratory studies with tissue from animals and humans, the UCSD team determined that the mutant SOD1 ignores all other mitochondria in cells and tissue outside of the spinal cord, and binds only to the mitochondria in the large motor neurons that begin in the spinal cord and extend down the arms and legs. They found SOD1 both inside the mitochondria and coated on the mitochondria's outer components.

Many thanks as ever for your brilliant explanations.

How To Make A Sticky Header Or Other Element In WordPress
Video Transcript
How To Make A Sticky Header Or Other Element In WordPress
Welcome back for another video I'm Adam from WPCrafter.com
were I make videos for nontechies like me
and like you and in this video i'm going to show you how
to do some really cool stuff using Beaver
Builder and I built this the other day and
I thought wow I'm to make a video to show
this to be because I think it is just so cool
so sometimes you have a webpage that has just
a lot of content right there's just this is
a long page of content and you might be tempted
to break it up into different pages but what
I notice is longer content seems to rank a little
better in Google and why not have it on one
page so I made this very large page right
here you can see there's different rose and
different sections and what I built was this
navigation here I call it a sub nav in it
sticks to the browser window when you scroll
down to see when I start scrolling it just
sticks there and what I really like about
it is I put in this call to action here on
the right there's two different options to
get started her to contact and it's just very
nice way told to to remind people of what
they're going to do next and making it real
convenient for them to go around your page
so for instance if I want to skip through
to the philosophy section I can just click
on it in a just the scrolls you right there
or the vision right there mission etc. so
I'm going to go ahead and show you how I did
this in this video now to get anything to
stick there's this really cool plug-in I added
that allows you do real easy so what you want
do is go in and install this plug-in and it's
right here under plug-ins now I've already
installed the plug-in and it's right here
it's got the craziest name sticky menu or
On scroll crazy name and you probably got
into the search exactly for that so few go
to add new and you go like that and hit enter
you just hit sticky menu you would see it
there it is right there if I just tend to
okay there it is so just do a search for sticky
menu and then you could go ahead and install
it in when you install it let's go into the
settings for it to go to settings and you'll
have a new option there that's a sticky menu
now this is the only setting I put in we need
to put a was called the class now you have
to be super technical all you need to know
is that when we put the class here were going
to put it also on what we want to stick okay
so it could be very complicated explaining
all this technical mumbo-jumbo but all you
need to know is where to put a class year
insults can be what I did is I put.
Sub navigate needs a start with the.
And what you just use the same thing put a
period in types of nab or sticky or whatever
you wanted and then go ahead and click on
save his settings so now I want to show you
how I built this case on a go ahead and enter
the page builder for Beaver Builder now before
I do that you'll notice that there are some
real flashing is going on where I hover over
the menu and we get this nice animation we
get the color changing and then this area
here is just beautiful how it's the dual button
and I have say or write in the middle show
you first how I'm getting these elements in
your now I chose to use a tool to do that
you can you don't need to use this tool but
I used it because I like a little bit of flair
on my website like this and I like just the
designs and I want it as easy as possible
others a new plug-in there was just released
and is called ultimate add-ons for Beaver
Builder all have a link on it down below and
I thought this it just came out it allows
you to have a whole bunch of new modules into
Beaver Builder any work on the free version
or the paid version and also has these pre-designed
to sections so you can just I want to contact
section just drag-and-drop it in and they're
also going to be releasing full-page templates
at some point in the future here and so right
here is all while actually to show you a list
of the modules here's a list of all the new
modules it adds right here and though you
can see here some of the different page Road
templates right here in page templates that
are coming out soon but I just use the module
so what I used is this thing called a creative
menu and there's 18 different styles and ice
just happen use style 18 right here someone
to show you how I did that and then for the
button I also used it from the ultimate add-ons
and it's called a dual button which I kinda
like little things like that so let me show
you how I did that so on the page and click
on page builder and this is gonna put me into
the Beaver Builder page builder now you see
some new options there because I'm using this
plug-in like as it you don't have to use this
plug-in and this sticky element thing will
work on the free version of the paid version
of Beaver Builder this video is for every
body also ultimate add-ons as the sections
button right here in and also adds this ultimate
add-ons right here when you click on it you
get all these add-ons you click on sections
they're all broken up and organize security
just drag-and-drop your section in so anyways
this isn't about that plug-in though so all
it is I created a new row and let me show
you what I did to that row, and click on row
settings an advanced enema scroll down and
that's where I put that class that I added
to this sticky plug-in sub now so right here
you're not to put the.
But if you did I'm sure gets stripped out
and that's what is going to tell that plug-in
that this row is what needs the stick nice
really as simple as that now I'll show you
something else a lot of people don't know
how to make on page navigation links that's
where you click on the linkages scrolls you
down on the page what people don't know how
to do that phenomena show you in this you
are right now so here is a section that his
ties to words is who we are so many click
on its so what I'm doing is when someone clicks
on who we are I wanted to go straight to this
our staff section of the page summary click
on it, go to advanced and ominous scroll down
what you do is you just assign it an ID so
I signed it who we are all with-some case
on the click on cancel so I signed a 90 and
then on your menu item which is right here
you put your link in which is the page you're
on the hash sign and then that IDU created
so here is the menu item and click on edit
and you can see for the link I put hashtag
or pound in that ID that I put in and that
tells this link to scroll down the page to
where that ID is and I did that for each of
these items so if you look on mission right
here if I click on it you'll see I created
the ID for it our mission right here our mission
and that corresponds with this link right
here for our mission so you can manually drop
a row and make it full with put a collar and
then just manually create these hyperlinks
to create your menu if you don't want these
fancy styles that you get with ultimate add-ons
and the same thing with here you can just
drag a text box there and puts a button in
and that's it if you don't want this fancy
style of a button right here and that's pretty
much all there was to creating this elegant
way of navigating of long page with different
sections on it and to also have this call
to action in the top right corner so that's
pretty much it now I'm sure we can make anything
stick and I had this idea what if we didn't
want a menu we just wanted was on scrolls
that call to action to be on the top right
so I'm doing this off-the-cuff woman to go
ahead and delete my menu like that now my
menu is gone and I just have that and let
me remove this color on the background some
of the going to the row settings and the background
is said to color me to make it non-like that's
in minimum to save its and let's see so now
what happens when I scroll that should just
be the only thing that sticks so let's go
ahead and click on Don and published changes
I'm doing this off-the-cuff I just thought
it might be fun and are there is now I don't
have my navigation I just wanted to create
a sticky kind of this right here and there
is in there it sticks that that would actually
be really cool for any business you can have
maybe a call us and then a phone number or
request an appointment or something and then
you could just make that hover and float right
there like that isn't that cool actually like
that a lot of people use it on some projects
of anyways I don't want to make this video
longer than it needs to be if you want to
look at ultimate add-ons I have a link down
below to that and you can check out all the
modules for yourself eyes actually really
cool you can just click on any of these modules
to see what they do prisons right here I just
hovered on it is the dual button and you can
see there's little button I used but they
have lots of other different ways of formatting
these and it's a super flexible package but
like you said you don't need the paid version
of Beaver Builder you don't need ultimate
add-ons it's just something to make it look
a little nicer than it would otherwise like
what can you do something for me if you're
watching this on you too can you give me a
thumbs up and I want to invite you to subscribe
to this YouTube channel there's a button right
beneath me and I really appreciate if you
did that and I've got something for you I
don't want you to leave empty-handed if you
just click off here to the site is a free
video course that I put together just for
you Colby three steps to WordPress success
you will love this course registration is
free right now all you have to do is click
on the link right next to me thanks for spending
this time with me and I can't wait to make
another video for you

Look Great, Sleep better!
Dormi's nighttime glasses block 100% of blue light and are the perfect solution for sleeping, healing, and performing better!
There is a biological computer inside your brain that determines your ability to sleep, heal and perform and exposure to blue light prevents this computer from being able to function properly.
Health starts with protecting the brain from blue light and Dormi's help you do that better than anything else!
Why You Should Block Blue Light
Exposure to blue light causes the pineal gland to suppress Melatonin release. This happens because the brain responds to blue light as if it were daytime, the only time blue light exists biologically.
Blue light however does more than suppress melatonin release. Blue light damages the retinal molecules that are responsible for manufacturing melatonin during the day, when sunlight interacts with tryptophan in the eye. Unnatural blue light inhibits the ability of retinal molecules to manufacture melatonin locally, in the eye.
So, blue light is not only making it hard for you to sleep by tricking the pineal gland into thinking it's daytime, but it also makes you less capable of manufacturing melatonin when it damages the retinal molecules needed to perform this function. And once these molecules are damaged, they can't be regenerated.
Blue light though is not inherently bad. It becomes bad when it's recreated unnaturally with technology. When this happens, blue light appears without the other colors of the rainbow that balance out its intensity. In addition to this, the need to see after dark introduces blue light at a time that contradicts healthy circadian rhythm.
Sunlight vs. LED Blue Light
Blue light from sunlight is always accompanied by red light (IR) and at certain times of the day purple light (UV), which are responsible for all of the healing and regeneration that takes place in your tissues and cells. These red and purple healing frequencies are missing in unnatural blue light and create a toxic peak in the blue part of the spectrum.
The intensity in this peak is what needs to be protected against, especially once the sun goes down.
Natural Blue Light Has An Important Role
Natural blue light aligns our circadian rhythm, the 24-hour cycle that tells our body when to sleep, rise, and eat.
We need natural healthy light for our clocks run on time, specifically our sleep clock, which regulates the most important process for healing and preventing disease.
Unnatural blue light, as well as other forms of unnatural EMF's, makes the circadian rhythm that is necessary for peak health impossible.
The Dormi's Story
Hi! My name is Derek Lacey, I'm a sleep coach and the founder of Dormi's Glasses.
I struggled mightily with insomnia for about 3 decades and never thought that would end. I just didn't see a means to an end.
There were 2 major choices I made that I have found out can fix anybody's sleep.
One is understanding that my problem was not unique and that I had a built-in design for sleep.
The other was blocking blue light.
The more I made blocking blue light a part of my routine, the more I started to experience the ease of sleep, and the confidence that it could be a regular part of my life.
Not all blue blockers do what they really should. My best option for blocking blue light 100% effectively was making my own, and so Dormi's was born.
As a sleep coach, creating Dormi's Glasses has allowed me to dedicate my life to serving people with sleep fully, even if I can't work with them individually, so they don't have to experience the struggles that I did.
Enjoy your Dormi's, enjoy your sleep, and enjoy the optimum health you deserve!"
- founder, Derek Lacey
Happy Dormi's Customers!
"When I bought my blue blockers, Derek reminded me I was putting commitment toward sleep, and was declaring myself a better sleeper before even seeing results. It's amazing how much that has improved my sleep and my mindset. " - Reg H.
"I love studying with my Dormi's! They help me focus and retain the information like never before! And of course, sleep better:)" - Lola R.
"It's like I'm slipping into a whole nother dimension when I put them on. My favorite part of the day!" - Tanya M.
"I'm sleeping deeper and longer and I didn't have to make any other major changes to my lifestyle, I'm pretty amazed!" - Rick M.
"I'm loving my daytime and nighttime Dormi's! My sleep has never been better, and I've never felt younger!" Tyrone S.
"My sleep improved immediately and I don't get headaches anymore from my staring at my screen all day! Plus, I've really benefited from some of the sleeping tips I've found on this site. Thank you so much!" Catherine G.
"These glasses have really helped me in more ways than I could possibly explain! My eyes don't hurt anymore and I'm sleeping like a champ!" Mathew K.
Soon after wearing these, my I strain stopped being a problem, my eyes felt so much better. Had to get a pair for my wife too!" Michael P.
"What's exciting for me is that I'm an insomniac and these glasses improved my sleep enough that they made me excited to make additional changes. I'm getting really confident about my longterm sleep!." Leslie J
"Wearing my Dormi's has increased my awareness of how I'm feeling, what kind of environment I'm in, and how much I use technology." Carina D
"If I feel any light sensitivity coming on, I put on my Dormi's and it goes away." Leisha V
"Wearing Dormi's glasses have changed my life! I'm often on my phone or computer late at night and since I've started wearing Dormi's, falling asleep is a breeze!"
"My Dormi's feel amazing. Wearing them induces that relaxing feeling that I've been craving for years!" Emma S.

Hello sirs,
I designed a wide range (90Vac to 240Vac) sigle output 29Vdc 200W flyback.
It works fine in all conditions like:
a) 110Vac full load
b) 110Vac zero-load
c) 240Vac full load
But in the condition 240Vac zero-load the output start to goes up to 35Vdc and remains there.
To ensure that 29Vdc is guaranteed at 240Vac i have to put a 2W load on output.
Do you have an idea how to solve it without losing 2 Watts?
Many thanks and have a nice day.

Carrie: movie review
Time Out says
A new Carrie means, by and large, more of everything: more twitchiness from a now excruciatingly shy shut-in (Chloë Grace Moretz), more amplified shame via viral videos posted by catty mean girls, more pig's blood (from five different camera angles). Only Julianne Moore, as the Bible-thumping mom, has an instinct to go softer—how couldn't she, after Piper Laurie?—and paradoxically, it's a move that feels wrong, the role requiring its cantatory bigness.
Director Kimberly Peirce (Boys Don't Cry) understands the crude power of Stephen King's first published novel, soaked in menstrual panic and the hauteur of do-gooders. But her serviceable remake feels depressingly yoked to the look and feel of Brian De Palma's 1976 classic, down to the set design. (There's even a hint of locker-room slo-mo.) It should have been an opportunity for a transfusion of timeliness: How about an Adderall-spiked college applicant and one of those overbearing tiger moms?

Community association searches for resident help in adding amenities
The Kincora Community Association is trying to find volunteers to assist in adding some new amenities into their community.
Community features such as an ice rink and a community garden are in the association's plans, said past president and current board member Bruce Simpson.
However the board of directors, consisting of eight official members, needs the community's assistance.
"The board (alone) simply cannot do it," Simpson said, "These are ... capital projects that take some money and a lot of effort."
Kincora, a northwest community, is just under a decade old with a population of under 5,000 people, according to the results of the 2011 Civic Census. Both young families and retired couples populate the community.
Simpson said the projects the board has in mind depend on "the level of commitment of the volunteers" that help out.
"We're trying to nurture those who have the interest to spearhead something and get them to get volunteers," said Simpson.
In an email, Neil Chapman, president of the Kincora Community Association, said with the current tasks and jobs the board members have, adding building and planning to their list just isn't possible.
Chapman said that to date, 10 members of the community have stepped up to help out with projects and are hoping to meet in November to establish project teams. However, more members are required to help.
"We need the 'soldiers' on the front lines to get the work done," Chapman said.
Sarah Coates, secretary of the board, said the community association is looking to implement sub-committees that could focus on certain issues such as the ice rink, the community garden, schooling issues or enhancing parks.
Actually finding volunteers for those proposed sub-committees, however, is proving to be a challenging one.
"People have a lot on their plate, and it's hard to convince [them] that this is the right place to put their time," said Coates.
Coates, who's been on the board since the past summer, said what convinced her to join was the idea that she wanted to see her community have new amenities.
"I just feel like [these things] won't happen without people getting involved," said Coates.
Simpson said he thinks one-on-one communication with the community will help solve the problem, with board members talking to their neighbours and spreading the word about the community association and what they would like to do.
"It's like a snowball going downhill, it builds momentum," Simpson said.
"You'd have to almost go house-to-house," suggested Jimmy Sartori, a past board member. "But of course, that takes a lot of man hours."
Chapman, also in an email, said that the board is taking measures to promote the community association to residents; including emails to members, information on their website, social media sites such as Facebook, and soon, a Bold-sign advertisement.
"I think it's exciting," said Coates. "If there's more people involved we can make great things happen for our community."

What is bluestacks?
Bluestacks is an American company responsible for the android emulator app that goes with the same name. This app enables you to run Android applications on your PC. The app can also be used to run Android apps on Apple's macOS. Bluestacks is currently being used by more than 200 million people around the world. It is available in more than 47 different languages. The underlying software features are free to download, and it can run more than 95% of the apps on google play store. The latest version of the app (bluestacks 4) is around 442 MB in size. Bluestacks app can run in any PC provided it has enough space, Windows XP SP3 or higher, and a GPU with Direct X 9.0 or higher capabilities.
How do you run bluestacks on your PC?
Well running bluestacks for PC is very simple, here are the steps you need to follow to successfully run bluestacks on your PC;
- Visit the Bluestacks website and download the bluestacks four apps.
- Once you have downloaded the app right-click on it and run the app as an administrator.
- Once you have downloaded run it as an administrator select language input your email and the app will be ready to use.
- Copy apps from your Android device and open them always using bluestacks. The applications will automatically install in bluestacks, and they will be ready to use every time you open bluestacks.
But is it always that simple?
I know of many people who have been trying to run bluestacks on their PC, but they have been unsuccessful every time they try. In this article, I am going to guide you step by step on how to successfully run bluestacks on your PC.
- If you are using BitDefender antivirus, you need to disable it because of bluestacks clashes with the antivirus software.
- Enable virtualization technology. This is what makes many PCs not run bluestacks because most of the virtualization technology is disabled.
To enable virtualization technology, you need to follow the following steps
- First, you need to go bios set up, to go to bios set up depends on your PC since different PCs have different keys used to get to bios set up. As for me, I am using an HP laptop to get to bios set up using HP switch off your computer, when powering on press the escape key (Esc). After pressing the key just read which key you are supposed to press to get to bios set up as for me, it is f10.
- The next step is getting to virtualization technology: Press f10 or the key you are supposed to press. Using the arrow keys get to system configuration. Use the arrow keys again and get to virtualization technology.
- After you get to virtualization technology it's straightforward to enable it, as you can see from the photo above virtualization technology is disabled. To allow it you need to press enter again using the arrow keys select enabled, and press enter.
- The virtualization technology is now enabled all that is left is to save the setting and exit as for my PC all I need is to press f10, and everything will be set. From the bottom read which key you are supposed to press to save and exit.
- The PC will automatically power back on after you save and exit. Since you had already downloaded the app (bluestacks), run it as administrator and follow the steps I had given earlier.
The app takes up to forty seconds to run depending on your PC performance.
All you need is to copy apps from your Android device into your PC once bluestacks has run. Always make sure to open the apps with bluestacks. When you open an android app using bluestacks, it will automatically install in your PC, and you can now enjoy your android emulator. This is how apps look like when installed.
You can now enjoy using android apps on your PC and play hundreds of android games on your PC.
Are there any other apps like bluestacks?
The answer is yes, bluestacks is the most popular android emulator but there also alternatives if one for one reason or another doesn't want to use bluestacks. These alternatives include;
- Remix OS player: just like bluestacks it is free to download and easy to use. It is based on android 6.0 marshmallow.
- Nox player: it's free to download and is based on android lollipop 5.1.1.
- Andy: it's as old as bluestacks and also have a lot of users.
- KoPlayer: not as popular as the rest but it is an efficient android emulator.
- MEmu player: this app has had its market increase since it supports both Intel and AMD CPUs a feature that not even bluestacks supports.
- Dolphin
- AMIDuOS
- GenyMotion
That's my list for best bluestacks alternatives in no particular order.

This past Saturday I managed to do the meal planning for this week and next week, weeks 2 and 3 of the pantry challenge. Meal planning is probably one of the most important things I do to keep costs down.
It usually goes something like this:
- Look at the calendar to see what we have going on and decide what days need crockpot meals, what days need "on the go" meals, and if there are any days that we won't be home so there is no use in planning for that day.
- Look through my recipe book and make a list of main dishes and sides while making a list of ingredients needed.
- Walk through the kitchen with the ingredient list and cross off what we already have in the freezers, pantry, and cabinets.
- Write out the shopping list(s) with what items we need to buy and where to get them the cheapest.
Seems pretty simple…. until you add in 2 young boys and a newborn. As soon as I sit down to start, this is what happened.
*baby cries to be fed*
"Mom, I'm hungry" (he just ate 30 minutes ago)
*younger boy cries because older boy hit him*
*older boy talks to me constantly*
"Mom when are we leaving" (teen daughter interrupting because she is excited to be dropped off with friends)
*baby cries to be changed*
*baby needs put to sleep*
*baby cries to be picked back up*
*boys get into the pantry and get snacks* (I chase them down to put snacks away)
*boys complain about wanting to eat* (they seriously JUST ATE!)
*get boys snack while rocking baby*
*plead with the kids to please let me get this done*
*kids agree and go off to play, baby is quiet*
*sit down and open my recipe book…..baby starts crying again*
OMG. I was ready to give up and just say "screw it". But, I didn't want to make a separate trip into town (25 min drive each way) a different day. Since I had to take my daughter up to drop off with friends, it only made sense to do the shopping while I was there. Gas is expensive y'all.
So at this point, my husband sees I'm actually really close to loosing my shit and takes the baby to the living room, thus freeing up my arms so I can get this meal plan done!
Here's this week's plan:
- Sunday: BBQ chicken, corn on the cob, au gratin potatoes
- Monday: Brown sugar meatloaf, mashed potatoes, glazed carrots
- Tuesday: Shake and bake pork, applesauce, noodle side, veggie
- Wednesday: Baked sweet and sour chicken, rice, broccoli
- Thursday: Leftovers
- Friday: Beef porcupines, egg noodles, peas
- Saturday: Homemade pizza
Breakfasts include: cereal, eggs, oatmeal, pancakes, toast
Lunches include: PB&J, grilled cheese, chicken nuggets, cold cut sandwiches, leftovers
I've got my meal plan done. Great. Fantastic even. Until I realize that I have to go to both Walmart AND Aldi…. on a Saturday afternoon… by myself WITH the 2 young boys and the baby.
Ok. I've got this.
I have my husband and daughter get the boys dressed and loaded in the van while I get the baby and grab my Lillebaby carrier, the backpack I use as a diaper bag, fruit snacks (aka little bags of "shut up"), and my shopping list.
Here we go.
After dropping off my daughter, and bribing my boys with a treat if they are good and listen (I will bribe them whenever needed!) we successfully managed to make it through BOTH stores without major issues!
I spent a total of $107.33 at both stores for the next 2 weeks. This INCLUDES produce to make 3 batches of jam and 3 batches of salsa that need to be canned, and some food for week 3 for me because I am going to start a meal plan to try to drop 15-20 pounds.
Here's what we got:
Walmart: 3 large containers of blueberries, 2 bags of raw carrot chips, romaine lettuce, 8 green bell peppers, bananas, 8 ears of corn, celery, 9 large cans of petite diced tomatoes, 2 large cans of tomato puree, 2 boxes of brown minute rice, 2 boxes of fish fillets, 2 packages of American cheese, lime juice, ground cumin, applesauce, 2 packets of fajita seasoning, 2 gallons of milk.
Aldi: 2 boxes of macaroni and cheese, 2 jugs of purified water, 2 cases of purified bottled water, hot dog buns, 2 loaves of bread, 2 packages of raspberries, 2 bags of apples, a bag of peaches, 9 mangoes, 2 bunches of cilantro, 3 bags of jalapeños, 3 bags of onions, blue cheese crumbles, 3 packages of string cheese, 7 cans of tuna, 9 yogurts, pretzels, 2 bags of chips, turkey bacon, soy sauce, 2 bottles of ketchup.
I'd say I had a successful afternoon! Grocery shopping done. I didn't lose any kids. No meltdowns (including myself).
I still think a supersized McVodka should be a thing though.

In posts to this blog, and in e-mails that I receive, many Lovefraud readers wonder, after the devastation of a sociopath, if they can love again.
Yes, you can.
I am living proof. In February 2000, I was divorced from James Montgomery, who took a quarter of a million dollars from me, cheated throughout our brief two-and-a-half year relationship, had a child with another woman while married to me, and then married that woman 10 days after I left him, committing bigamy. I was devastated.
After I left Montgomery, I had one nice relationship with a man, although it didn't turn out to be permanent. He was normal, not disordered, and supportive of me. I was sad when the relationship ended, but it was a step along my path towards healing.
Then, in April 2001, I met Terry Kelly. We married in 2005. We are totally happy and in love. Here is something that I've learned from my new marriage: Real love is easy.
Signs of real love
In real love, there are no mind games. There is no manipulation. There are no guilt-producing accusations like, "Don't you trust me?" or "Who are you sleeping with?" There is no pleading to be forgiven, no promises to never do it again, because there are no violations of trust that require forgiveness.
I do not wonder if my husband really loves me, because I know he does. I can feel it.
Here's what you get in a true, loving relationship: Enjoyment of each other's company. Honest caring for each other. Consideration of each other's feelings. Real partnership—not a one-sided deal, with you as the giver and the other as the taker.
Sure, there problems that need to be solved. Guess what? Issues are resolved and life goes on. There is no drama.
I will say this—after the disaster of a marriage to a sociopath, I am highly appreciative of my new husband. He, too, was previously married, and although his ex wasn't malicious, the relationship had become empty. So we both appreciate each other. In fact, we find joy in each other.
Making the transition
So how does this happen? How do you make the transition from wounded victim to a whole person ready for love?
As I've written before, I believe your emotional pain needs to be processed. When my heart was broken, it allowed all the trauma from my bad marriage, and all the pent-up pain from other disappointments in my life, to be released. Slowly, over time, it came flowing out, through tears, yelling, screaming and punching pillows.
You don't want to inflict this display on other people—my releases were witnessed only by my therapist and my dog. And they really upset the dog.
The emotional release takes time, because we all have many layers of pain. But as the negative energy dissipates, there is room in your being for something else. That something else is love.
So if you're in recovery after a run-in with a sociopath, give yourself time and permission to heal. Trust that you've learned the red flags of personality disorders, and by listening to your instincts, you won't be deceived again. Believe that love is possible, and someday, it will find you.

REGINA — For a truly unique perspective on this week's "Drought Bowl" between the Blue Bombers and Hamilton Tiger-Cats we present you Winnipeg assistant general manager Danny McManus.
McManus was the starting quarterback for the Ticats in 1999 when they last won the Grey Cup and was a backup who threw a touchdown pass with the Bombers when they last grabbed Earl Grey's mug in 1990.
He's now one of the Bombers' most important recruiters and is responsible for the signings of many talented American players, but McManus was once a CFL gunslinger who earned three Grey Cup titles and knows first hand how hard they are to win.
"Any time you get a chance to compete in one, you want to take advantage of it," McManus said from his home in Florida on Monday.
"This is our shot here.
"It's been a while because its two quality organizations and you would think they would have won more Grey Cups by now."
McManus was a CFL rookie when he played in the 1990 Grey Cup game, throwing a 56-yard touchdown pass to slotback Rick House in the Bombers 50-11 win over the Edmonton Eskimos.
"I got in late and coach (Mike) Riley benched me for throwing the pass," McManus said. "I don't think coach Riley wanted to put the ball in the air and score the touchdown, he just wanted to get the game over. He said 'I gotta take you out if you're gonna throw passes. I'm gonna put Sammy (Garza) in.'
"So I got benched for throwing a touchdown pass."
McManus also won the Grey Cup in 1994 with the B.C. Lions and lost the big game in 1996 with Edmonton and 1998 with Hamilton.
In 1999, he was the CFL's most outstanding player and was named Grey Cup MVP as the Tiger-Cats beat the Calgary Stampeders 32-21.
"We went to the Grey Cup in 1998 and got beaten by Calgary on a last-second field goal," McManus said. "(Coach) Ronnie Lancaster said 'We'll be back,' He knew the type of ball club that we had and we were just able to roll through the season and put some timely wins together near the end and come out with a victory over Calgary in the Grey Cup."
Having won in both cities, McManus knows just how much a Grey Cup will mean to the people in both Winnipeg and Hamilton. He said he uses the exuberance of Winnipeg fans in his recruiting pitches down south.
"I tell the guys that this is a great place to win a championship," McManus said. "These fans are outstanding and it's a great city to be a part of and to play football in."
McManus works pretty much year-round at trying to build the Bombers and it's obviously rewarding for him and other members of the player personnel department to be headed to the championship game.
He said the defining factor of this year's Bombers team is how the players have embraced the challenge.
"It's what happens in the locker room," McManus said. "The guys now are under the full understanding that it's their team. It's not (head coach) Mike (O'Shea's) team, it's not management's team, it's theirs, all the guys in that locker room.
"Those are the types of guys that we look for in our scouting. Guys that want to do great things to help their teammates. That's what Mike has them really concentrate on. They need to be good football players but he wants guys who are willing to do the little things to help their teammates out."
One player who has done a lot for the Bombers in a very short time is quarterback Zach Collaros, who was acquired at the CFL trade deadline on Oct. 9 and didn't make his first start until the final game of the regular season. He's now 3-0 with two playoff wins.
"He's come in and been a calming force," McManus said.
"Zach is a pro. He's seen a lot of stuff and he's been through a lot of things and he's a calming force that comes in and knows where to go with the football.
"He throws a nice deep ball. He puts it right on there. He has a nice delivery and a nice touch on the football. For a receiver, it's great to have a quarterback like that. He'll put it to a spot, you've just got to get there."
McManus will make his way to Calgary on Wednesday and will be in attendance when one of the Grey Cup droughts ends on Sunday.
As much as he likes and respects the Tiger-Cats organization, there's no doubt he hopes it's the longer one.
Crossbar play confusing for American viewers
Danny McManus had some friends over to his home in Florida to watch Sunday's West final thriller between the Blue Bombers and Saskatchewan Roughriders.
"They were impressed by the Canadian Football League," McManus said. "They said it was, by far, the best game they watched on Sunday.
"That's a testament to our league. I love to show people what type of football we play up there and how exciting it can be. You're never out of a game. Fortunately, the ball bounced our way this time."
The Bombers won 20-13 after making two goal-line stands in the final three minutes. On the last play of the game, Riders' quarterback Cody Fajardo was looking for an open Kyran Moore in the end zone but his pass went off the crossbar at the goal-line.
In American football, the crossbar is behind the end zone so a play like that could never happen.
"(My guests) were shocked and then there were a thousand questions," McManus said. "Can you make a play off it? Do they get to do the play over? I just had to help them with the rules through the game and that was one where all the heads turned to me and they said 'Now what happens?' I said 'It's a dead ball, game's over.'"
