Great progress made in Blackpool
The Truman team has been active on site since the end of May building the 120-bedroom Boulevard Hotel, situated on Blackpool's promenade.
After completing a programme of enabling works, we began the construction phase of the hotel with a total of 163 CHD Piles driven into the sandy bedrock ground. The ground floor steel frame and transfer deck has been completed with a total of 120 tonnes of steel
The erection of the four-storey timber frame is underway and is programmed to take twelve weeks to finish. Once complete, the roof works and external façade will commence as the building begins to take shape. The facade features a render and stone slip cladding finish.
The Boulevard Hotel will sit alongside the existing Big Blue Hotel, next to the world famous Blackpool Pleasure Beach theme park. The hotel will feature a mix of family rooms, executive suites, conference facilities and a 150-cover restaurant.
The interior works will begin towards the end of the year for an expected handover in readiness for the Summer holidaymakers and day trippers

Gosick – 01
Episode 1 – The Black Reaper Finds a Golden Fairy
(some spoilers ahead)
The first thing I want to say is that the OP is so pretty, (though I know I wont be able to watch the anime if it was in that style throughout the whole way) the OP art is just beautiful.
So the first thing we find out in this episode is why Kazuya is in this elite school meant for aristocrats. And because of his black hair and eyes, he is known as the kuro shinigami. But we soon find out that the nickname he had acquired is related to a ghost story. At the suggestion of a teacher, Kazuya goes to the library where he begins to read up on ghost stories and this is where he meets a doll like girl called Victorique.
Next day arrives and we get to see Victorique in action solving a crime which was presented by Gervil (a new character). As all heroes must have, Victorique also has her key phrase that she says right before she sloves the crime. Personally, I don't feel like that added any value to the show at all except to imply that she is special. So with ease, she solves the crime that Grevil had presented to her. This whole thing takes place in roughly 5 minutes. This segment was decent for getting the point across that Victorique is special, and for character development.
The following day, after reading the newspaper, Kazuya decides to confront Grevil for stealing the spotlight of having solved the crime when Victorique was the one who solved it. Here Grevil lets slip about how Victorique requires special permission to go outside, and this adds to the mystery that is Victorique. We know from her behaviour (when she wonders what a newspaper stand is and when she thinks that a carriage driver(?) was Kazuya's servant) that she rarely goes out and can be quite ignorant. This starts to make me wonder how much she actually knows and how she is able to solve crimes without being able to understand such minor everyday things since an understanding of things in daily lives and the roles people play (and their behaviours) may end up leading to her being able to solved a crime. When it starts to seem like the first mystery has been solved, we are given a few new hints behind the maid's motive which leads to a bigger and more sinister plot brewing in the background. Right towards the end of the episode, the plot thickens and the mood turns heavy before the Ending Credits appear on screen with Victorique and Kazuya taking the matters of the case into their own hands.
That atmosphere of the anime is nice and light in this first episode (except for the very last bit), but it is also nicely balance with moments of suspense and seriousness. The constant reminder that the main character is more than meets the eye is done in a nice (though ordinary) way.
The interaction between the main characters is enjoyable and fun without being too over the top. Victorique always making fun of Kazuya and Kazuya is always at the losing end of their banter. Victorique's childish moments are endearing and helps break away from her serious and too-grown-up persona which she takes on more often than not. Kazuya ends up being somewhat of a babysitter/friend (or so I felt) as the episode progressed. I can't help but feel sorry for him though, being unable to make any friends and ending up being friends/slave to a doll-like girl who bosses you around and pokes fun at you all the time. I have to say that I am pleased that at least he does not seem to be a super submissive person and has a backbone of sorts a the very least.
I can't wait to watch the next episode now. The case is nice and intriguing, the characters are lovable with just the right amount of craziness just to keep them more lighthearted. Personally, I want to watch a nice serious spooky crime anime and though this does not scratch my itch, it does a good enough job of satisfying my craving.
The animation is nice and crisp, and the art is pleasant.
Some have mentioned that Victorique is like Shinku from Rozen Maiden due to the appearance and the personality. I have not seen the show so I cant really comment too much on it. This anime does remind me slightly of Umeineko no Naku Koro Ni in the second episode.
Recommended to:
Those who like some nice typical animation (nothing too special), a decent mystery with some suspense and comical moments.
Rating: 7.5
My issue with it is that even though this leaves me wanting more, it does not leave me going, "wow, this is something special", nor does it make me want to re-watch the episode multiple times.
-ra out! (I wanna hear what you think of it, I seem to have ranted quite a bit)

Senator Patty Murray, The National Taskforce to End Sexual and Domestic Violence; Andrew Lee; and FEMA Administrator Craig Fugate.
Washington, D.C. – The National Congress of American Indians (NCAI) has announced the recipients of the organization's prestigious Indian Country Leadership Awards. Senator Patty Murray (D – WA), The National Taskforce to End Sexual and Domestic Violence, Andrew Lee of the Seneca Nation, and FEMA Administrator Craig Fugate will be honored at the organization's Indian Country Leadership Award Banquet held this Tuesday March 5, 2013 in conjunction with NCAI's 2013 Executive Council Winter Session.
The organization's Indian Country Leadership Awards celebrate the outstanding contributions of individuals and organizations to Indian Country in four categories: Congressional Leadership Award, Native American Leadership Award, Governmental Leadership Award, and Public Sector Leadership Award.
Congressional Leadership Award – Senator Patty Murray
As a champion for tribal sovereignty and Native women, Senator Patty Murray was instrumental in the recent passage of the Violence Against Women Act reauthorization. Senator Murray has advocated passionately for families and upheld her commitment to Indian Country by ensuring that life-saving assistance for victims of domestic violence extends to Native communities. Senator Murray is a key Indian Country partner in the Senate having served as the first female Chair of the Senate Veterans' Affairs Committee during the 112th Congress and currently serving as the first female Chair of the Senate Budget Committee.
Public Sector Leadership Award – The National Taskforce to End Sexual and Domestic Violence
The National Task Force to End Sexual and Domestic Violence Against Women ("NTF") is focused on the development, passage and implementation of effective public policy to address domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault and stalking. NTF is a national coalition made up of thousands of civil rights organizations, labor unions, advocates for children and youth, anti-poverty groups, immigrant organizations, women's rights leaders, faith organizations, education groups, and others. The Task Force stood shoulder-to-shoulder with Indian Country to secure the passage of a comprehensive Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) reauthorization that provided safety and justice for Native women.
Native American Leadership Award – Andrew Lee
Andrew Lee (Seneca) has dedicated himself to advancing innovations that build a stronger future for Indian Country. He is currently Vice-President at Aetna and has also served as Chief-of-Staff to the President and Head of Aetna's Office of Public Policy. Before joining Aetna in 2005, Lee was Executive Director of the Harvard Project on American Indian Economic Development, where he founded the Honoring Nations awards program. In 2011, Lee was the first American Indian named a Young Global Leader by the World Economic Forum. He is a Trustee of the Nathan Cummings Foundation and the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian.
Governmental Leadership Award – Administrator Craig Fugate
Craig Fugate has served as Administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) since May 2009. As a former state emergency management director, he has credibly emphasized the importance of intergovernmental collaboration with tribal nations. He has overseen a significant strengthening in FEMA-tribal relations, consistently advocating for our nation-to-nation relationship and instituting a FEMA Headquarters Office of Tribal Relations Liaison and appointing a tribal legal advisor in the FEMA Office of the Chief Counsel. He was the lead Administration champion for the amendments to the Stafford Act that were signed into law by President Obama in January 2013.Subscribe to our News RSS

Notable Maori educator Sir Toby Curtis is demanding an urgent hearing before the Waitangi Tribunal on Wai 2770. The claim centres on the closure of Partnership Schools in NZ.
Curtis says the Minister of Education is being unilaterally.
"They need to hurry in order for their report to be released before the minister fully cuts off these schools," says Curtis.
All existing partnership (Charter) schools were made to apply this year to become part of the wider state school system.
But Curtis says the government needs to put the brakes on.
"It is wrong to close these schools down," says Curtis, "For those who did not attend this system before, they had the idea that they were worthless."
Eleven Partnership Schools have been established in New Zealand. In February this year amendments were made to the Education Act to remove the Partnership School model.
"Our members in parliament have become silent, we have a lot of Māori members as ministers in this government but not one has said a word in support for this."
According to the Waitangi Tribunal there is no set date for the claim to be heard.

A young child crossing the road with her mother in the UK has narrowly escaped serious injury, and possibly death, after a car ran a red light.
Dash cam footage from a second car, stopped at the red light, has captured the moment the young girl and her mother had to jump out of the way of the speeding vehicle.
The pair were halfway across the street in Hall Green, Birmingham just after noon on June 6, within a 30mph (48km/h) area, when a Nissan Micra sped through the traffic lights, Express UK reports.
The woman who captured the footage, 34-year-old Stephanie Higgins, said she tried to sound her horn to warn the mother when she saw the car approaching behind her.
"I had slowed down and stopped because I saw the lights were turning red," she said.
"I saw the Micra in my mirror approaching at speed showing no intention to slow down. I tried to sound my horn to warn the people on the crossing but I think it would have been too late.
"Luckily the mother managed to spot the car at the last minute and pulled her daughter back so it just missed her.
"The car looked to be going faster than 30mph and clipped a kerb as it came around the corner.
"It definitely would have been a fatal if the little girl had been hit."
Ms Higgins said she hoped the footage going viral would raise awareness for people in the area.
"There's a nursery by the crossing so you can only imagine the near misses that must happen," she said.
"Hopefully this will help raise awareness so incidents like this don't happen again."

dicksond wrote:Mark, have you tried the seafood at FN? Just curious.
Yeah, HoE does feature seafood and has a very good rep. It is my local Chinese place, about a mile from the house, and somewhere along the way I grew to dislike it - I suppose because so much of their food is so Ameri-chinese, so I have this bias against it. But it is a good choice for Cantonese style seafood, you are right.

Esteban and Marco Grimalt, winners of the Sydney three-star event on Sunday (March 10), maintained their form as the International Volleyball Federation Beach Volleyball World Tour moved on to Doha.
The Chilean cousins took a 14-hour flight in order to compete in four-star Katara Cup that began today in Qatar.
After receiving a bye into the second qualification round they duly reached the main draw with a 21-16, 21-13 win over Germany's Nils Ehlers and Lars Fluggen.
"It was a little bit windy out there and our serve was very good in the middle of the first set and that made a difference that allowed us to get the win," Esteban Grimalt said.
"It was a very long flight, but we tried to sleep well and stretch in the middle of the flight so that we arrived in the best shape possible.
"Yesterday we rested all day and then in the evening we went to the gym for a short while, but focused on resting because we knew today would be a difficult day."
This running of the Katara Beach Cup marks the fifth time that Qatar has hosted a World Tour tournament and it will run until March 16 at the Katara Cultural Village.
The Grimalts' victory in Sydney was their second World Tour success in the past year following gold at the Tokyo three-star in July.
They were one of eight teams to reach pool play today.
Joining them there are Mart Tiisaar and Kusti Novlak, who won two from two in qualifying to progress, having also travelled from Sydney.
The Estonian duo began with a 15-21, 21-19, 20-18 win over Austria's Tobias Winter and Julian Horl, and followed up by defeating Canada's Ben Saxton and Grant O'Gorman 21-17, 21-18.
Only a men's tournament is being played in Doha.

If the owner of the boat is not known, publication of the boat's description, make, model, size, and color, plus details of impoundment, redemption procedure and the opportunity for hearing to contest the propriety of impoundment within a newspaper of general and local readership shall constitute sufficient notice.

His work has graced the covers of Time, GQ,Vogue, Esquire, Wired, and The New York Times magazine. Portrait photographer Marco Grob, who's worked with a number of Presidents, has been given rare access to the planet's most untouchable people—a "front row seat to history," as he puts it.
For the first time ever, Grob has accumulated his portraiture of the world's most influential people from the last 10–15 years in a book, appropriately titled Money, People, Politics. And it's out now by teNeues. Grob has shot everyone from Steve Jobs and Vice President Joe Biden to this year's presidential hopefuls, Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton.
Poignant and dedicated quotes from some of Marco Grob's liminary subjects as Astronaut Scott Kelly and Vice President Joe Biden are special features of this grand photography tome.
Spanning over a decade of his portrait work, showing some of the most dynamic, influential, and controversial figures in modern politics, popular culture, sports, entertainment, technology, science, space travel, and global culture, Money People Politics is an electrifying retrospective from renowned contemporary photographer, Marco Grob. Whether a candid moment of vulnerability, raw emotion, or the direct unadulterated gaze, Grob's portraits are uniquely ennobling, but ultimately human. Through his autonomous and intimate photographic process with each special personality that has impacted and shaped recent culture, the photographer has been granted a rare and privileged "front row seat to history." Wholly passionate and committed to his craft that began as a beloved hobby over 30 years ago, Marco Grob believes that when you "carry a camera, you carry a responsibility."
Born in Olten, Switzerland, Marco Grob worked for 20 years as a still life photographer before deciding to focus entirely on people and portrait photography in 2003. In addition to successful commercial work in the film and advertising industries, Marco's work appears regularly in magazines like TIME, GQ, VOGUE, ESQUIRE, THE NEW YORK TIMES MAGAZINE, WIRED, and NEW YORK MAGAZINE. His work has earned him numerous awards throughout his career, including an Emmy Award and a prestigious Hasselblad Masters Award in 2007. Mr. Grob lives in New York, but follows his work around the world.

Maths Counts is back for 2019 and we're changing up the format in response to the needs of maths teachers – as identified by you – the maths teachers of Ireland.
Some things won't change though. As in previous years, we'll have a world-recognised expert in mathematics education provide the keynote address. This year it's Prof. Jeremy Hodgen, Chair of Mathematics Education at University College London. Professor Hodgen will speak about a recent study he led, which focused on "What is the evidence regarding the effectiveness of different strategies for teaching mathematics?". Professor Hodgen's has also recently led research investigating low attainment in mathematics. It will be interesting to hear his views on maths teaching and learning. We'll also have our Lesson-Study showcase. This year you'll hear from teachers involved in Lesson Study through our poster exhibition and interactive workshops. The PDST Post-Primary Maths team will provide input in the form of teaching and learning workshops covering the five strands of the Leaving Certificate syllabus and we'll be joined by some of our PDST primary colleagues who'll present workshops on teaching and learning of mathematics in fifth and sixth class.
Due to phenomenal interest we've had to close registration for Maths Counts. If spaces become available in the coming weekes we will re-open registration.
More information to follow soon …

For New Jersey residents who have suffered a traumatic brain injury (TBI), the damage can go beyond the brain and impact many different areas of the body, hindering their ability to work. With the variety of problems that accompany a brain injury along with the medical expenses, the inability to work should be accounted for by applying for Social Security disability benefits for injury. With TBI, knowing how the Social Security Administration evaluates it and what criteria must be met to be granted benefits is integral to a case.
What is a spinal cord injury?
Whether it is because of a fall at work, an automobile collision or any other form of accident, suffering an injury to the back can be serious. It can be so serious that it can cause a person to suffer a disability. An injury to the back could impact the spinal cord, even making it impossible to move some of one's body temporarily or permanently. Because of this, those living with a spinal cord injury may find it impossible to care for him or herself, do the things they once could or even work. This is where Social Security disability benefits could be resourceful and necessary.
Back injuries and risks for long-term disability
We all get aches and pains from time to time. This is typically because we have overdone it at work, the gym or at home. These pains will often go away with rest and home remedies. However, these pains, especially those of the back, can be debilitating when a serious injury to the back occurs. This can make for a painful and challenging life, as this can disrupt one's ability to maintain a normal life and even hold down a job.
Seeking SSD benefits for injuries suffered in an accident
Because we are not invincible, injuries happen. While many of the injuries individuals in New Jersey and elsewhere suffer are minor, other injuries can be severe. So severe that it causes difficulties in the person's everyday life. It can be so difficult that an individual is unable to return to work. Such a situation can be problematic, as it can cause financial hardships. Thus, it is important to explore options, such as collecting Social Security disability benefits.
Early therapy doesn't improve pain-related back disability
We all suffer from aches and pains from time to time. Maybe you ran a half marathon, spent a day doing yard work or had to shovel the driveway. Whether it is because of doing housework, work or a leisure activity, when an individual suffers from back pain, it can cause major impacts to one's health. In some cases, the pain can be so severe that it can be disabling, making it difficult to leave the house or hold down a job.
Can you recover SSD benefits following a brain injury?
Much like one does not expect to suffer great harms in an accident, one also does not expect to be unable to work because of this serious injury. Unfortunately, however, tragic accidents can happen. People are suddenly and shockingly disabled by a severe injury, such as trauma to the head. Such an injury not only impacts a person cognitively, but a brain injury could also impact a person's ability to move his or her body or control their reflexes.
Work credits and Social Security disability
Let's face it. Suffering an injury is painful. Even something minor can cause very noticeable and distracting pain for weeks at a time. Thus, when an individual in New Jersey or elsewhere suffers a serious injury, he or she is likely to endure much pain that impacts many facets of his or her life. In some cases, an injury could be so severe that it is difficult to lead a normal life and impossible to hold down a job. This can present many financial challenges.
SSD benefits following a workplace injury
For some individuals in New Jersey, he or she has been disabled since birth due to a birth injury, birth defect or a genetic condition or disorder. Others acquire a disability later in life. Specifically, a person is disabled because of an event, such as an accident. Due to the dangers faced in some work environments, a workplace injury is a growing cause for individuals suffering from disabilities.
Spinal cord injuries and added complications
Risks and dangers exist everywhere you walk. Whether it is at home, at work, in the park, at the store or any other public place, accidents could occur at anytime. While these could be simple trips or crashes, others could be serious with severe injuries. Whether it is a serious accident at the workplace or an automobile collision, a serious injury such as one to the spine could be life altering. A spine injury is one that could leave a victim permanently disabled, requiring extensive and ongoing medical care.
SSDI benefits and the need for vocational rehabilitation
Suffering a serious injury is anything but easy. Not only is the individual dealing with the event that caused the injury, he or she is now attempting to recover from the injury. For some severe injuries, taking time off to heal or seeking medical treatment is not enough. When an injury is debilitating, whether temporarily or permanently, this not only means extensive medical care but also being unable to work for this timeframe.

I grabbed a well-seasoned cherry limb for this, not realizing that it was a little rotten until after the epoxy had dried. :(
I tried carving anyway, but it had a lot of soft spots, and didn't sand up well. (The pics give it more justice than it deserves.)
Too bad, since it is pretty wood—just not strong enough to make anything out of.

The shape came out fine. If you have soft spots, that is a good chance to use an inlay like turquoise and CA glue to make it stand out!! Even black inlay would look good. I use epoxy and hit it with a spritz of black spray paint to make black epoxy and it comes out looking good!!

Working in the Netherlands
Expats wanting to work in the Netherlands usually find employment before they arrive. Getting a Dutch work permit can be a tricky affair, since local companies have to prove there are no better local or EU candidates if they want to hire a foreign employee.
Dutch is the official language, while English, German and French are also widely spoken. Although many expats get by without Dutch, having a basic understanding of the language is a definite advantage for job seekers.
Job market in the Netherlands
Food processing, chemicals, retail, financial services, transport, gas and oil are among the largest industries in the Netherlands. Highly qualified expats with skills in these sectors are more likely to find employment, especially in Amsterdam, The Hague and Rotterdam.
Dutch labour law protects employees and provides them with many benefits. For example, employees are entitled to 20 days of paid leave per year in addition to public holidays, and some companies offer more than this.
Finding a job in the Netherlands
Networking is an important part of the job search. The Dutch take personal recommendations seriously, and it's often the best way to find a job. The internet is also a good resource for those who don't have a local network, and there are numerous job portals advertising vacant positions.

277 Fifth Avenue Luxury Condos
In the very heart of NoMad, at the crossroads of Manhattan's East and West Sides, Uptown and Downtown, internationally acclaimed architect Rafael Viñoly has envisioned a heroic modern tower soaring 55 stories above Fifth Avenue.
Located just steps from Madison Square Park, 277 Fifth Avenue's 129 condominium residences offer timeless modern design by one of the world's leading architects, offering incomparable views and an enviable location in Manhattan's most sought-after and centrally located neighborhood.
Manhattan's most sought-after and centrally located neighborhood, NoMad is an energetic and dynamic location with a global point of view. NoMad is the epicenter of innovation in New York, home to fashionable restaurants and shops, art and cultural venues, health and fitness destinations, and abundant green spaces.
Celebrated interior architect Jeffrey Beers crafted 277 Fifth Avenue's residences with a warm palette of natural materials, including richly grained white oak, walnut, and lustrous Italian marble, complementing the tower's robust modern architecture.
"I wanted to be respectful of the building and design the interiors in a way that conveys warmth, like I would my own home."


text: It's amazing what a blog post can do. About a year or so ago I wrote some thoughts about picture books created in other countries, and how they are received when they are brought to American shores. I've a great deal of experience with librarians considering some types of illustrations too "weird" to promote to children and parents and it rankles. Likewise, there are many publishers that eschew a certain kind of look that comes with picture books from other countries. My blog post sparked something, it seems. The great illustrator Etienne Delessert caught on to it and the result is the following program, coming this April 18th. If you are in town and around, I highly suggest you check it out. The line-up is AMAZING! Plus it's free and you can register here for it.

Jane Austen (n) an English novelist whose realism, biting social commentary and masterful use of free indirect speech, caricature, and irony have earned her a place as one of the most widely read and most beloved writers in English literature.
Pride and Prejudice
In early nineteenth-century England, a spirited young woman copes with the courtship of a snobbish gentleman as well as the romantic entanglements of her four sisters.
From the Publisher: (Book Jacket Status: Jacketed) "Jane Austen remains the most misunderstood of great English writers . . . Austen's is an extended, exploratory, dangerously subversive art, and is neither harmlessly decorative nor picturesquely provincial . . . [Irony] is the secret of the perfect self-sufficiency of Pride and Prejudice."from the Introduction by Peter Conrad No novel in English has given more pleasure than Pride and Prejudice. Because it is one of the great works in our literature, critics in every generation reexamine and reinterpret it. But the rest of us simply fall in love with it and with its wonderfully charming and intelligent heroine, Elizabeth Bennet. And everyone is held fast not only by the novel's romantic suspense but also by the fascinations of the world we visit. The life of the English country gentry at the turn of the nineteenth century is made as real to us as our own, not only by the author's wit and feeling but by her subtle observation of the way people behave in society and how we are true or treacherous to each other and to ourselves.
Sense and Sensibility
Notes: First published in 1811. Two sisters of opposing temperaments share the pangs of tragic love, and their mutual suffering brings a closer understanding between the two sisters, and true love finally triumphs.
From the Publisher: For decades, people have enjoyed losing themselves in the stories of classic literary characters, including wondering about the fate of Marianne in the clutches of Mr. Willoughby. The novels of Jane Austen remain as popular, relevant, and enjoyable for the modern reader as they were for their contemporary readership, continuing to sell in the thousands. Elegantly packaged, with a textured, cloth-effect jackets, this novel will remain a must-read for generations to come.

Alexander McQueen – Winter Clothes and Accessories
October 11, 2017
Now I'm not usually one for high-fashion and designer labels (though I do dabble occasionally), but on a recent browse through the internet, I found myself off on a tangent when looking for a winter brolly (as clearly, we are not getting a summer here in the UK!) and I stumbled across this amazing collection of one of the best designer brand is Alexander McQueen that had everything from clothes and handbags, to brollies and accessories.
I've always known and loved the British fashion designer Alexander McQueen for his unique, edgy and effortlessly chic designs. So stumbling across some of the Autumn/Winter pieces, I had to delve in and have a look…Continue reading

Preaching the reality of Hell, without using the Law to bring the knowledge of sin (the Ten Commandments), can do a great deal of damage to the cause of the gospel.
A sinner cannot conceive of the thought that God would send anyone to Hell, as long as he is deceived into thinking that God's standard of righteousness is the same as his. Paul "reasoned" with Felix regarding righteousness, temperance, and judgment to come (Acts 24:25).
This is the righteousness that is of the Law and judgment by the Law. Felix "trembled" because he suddenly understood that his intemperance made him a guilty sinner in the sight of a holy God. The reality of Hell suddenly became reasonable to him when the Law was used to bring the knowledge of sin.
Imagine if the police burst into your home, arrested you, and shouted, "You are going away for a long time!" Such conduct would probably leave you bewildered and angry. What they have done seems unreasonable.

Copeland Park's Forza Win offers contemporary dining in pared-down yet stylish surrounds, serving Italian food that can be shared or wolfed down whole.
Forza Win began life in 2012 as a summer pop-up but made its home at this old grain store warehouse in 2014, holding supper clubs for 80+ diners a night for 3 years. It's now a bona fide restaurant and locals come in droves to sample from seasonal menus, delicious wine and house cocktails that send them home feeling La Dolce Vita.
The reclaimed space was renovated in 2017, and the exposed brickwork and rafters are offset by sleek shared and separate tableware, hanging foliage and an open wood-fired kitchen. The simple, well executed Italian menu offers dishes such as 'grilled leg of lamb, purple sprouting broccoli, almonds and Amalfi lemon' and 'tagliatelle with asparagus, butter and parmesan. Add a side of 'spinach with chili, garlic and fennel' and, to finish, the inspired 'blood orange chocolate pot' is a must.
Forza takes great care in sourcing ingredients; an attention to detail that is also reflected in the warm atmosphere the team manage so effortlessly. As Wednesdays is 'hump' day, the restaurant offers delicious meat or vegetarian pasta, a wine or beer and awesome sounds, all for just a tenner. Whatever the season, this popular Peckham restaurant, will always make you feel you're winning.

Many years ago in the early days of British kendo, a friend told me that his success in shiai was the result of his secret weapon, kote-men-dou. The idea was that this pre-planned renzoku waza sequence would invariably fool his opponents into lifting their arms to protect men and they would leave their dou open. At that time many of us were of a level where the technique actually worked, but with time and experience, far fewer people would fall for it today.
To be frank, I am not a believer in planning, at least not in a kendo context. "Fail to plan; plan to fail" may be a valuable adage in business administration, but in kendo the aim is to strike instinctively. So although we should of course build up our ability to make continuous attacks through kote-men, and kote-men-dou drills, these are not set-pieces. To my mind there are only four techniques in kendo – men, dou, kote and tsuki. There are of course infinite possibilities as to how these waza are applied, depending on distance, timing and opportunity. Whether you strike men as an oji-waza or shikake technique, the objective is still to hit your opponent on the head.
Renzoku waza are not pre-ordained sequences, they are more a matter of you attacking a target without success, but because you are moving forward in full spirit, you have the ability to continue immediately to attack another target because your first strike broke your opponent's composure, causing one or more of the four kendo sicknesses, kyo-ku-gi-waku, (surprise, fear, doubt and hesitation). Of course, if your adversary continues to keep a level mind, then there is no point in launching a second attack.
Renzoku waza depend on good footwork and posture. You should be in the habit of bringing your left foot up in hikitsuke as soon as you make fumikomi with the right and be ready to push off again from the left as soon as you have an opportunity. Breathing needs to be correct: you must keep breath in your tanden throughout the sequence. This is one area where regular correct kirikaeshi practice helps prepare you.
It might be argued that you do not see renzoku waza often in high level, 8th dan tachiai. This is not because high grades can't do renzoku waza, in fact some senior teachers such as Yamanaka sensei are experts. It is more a matter of their opponent keeping a strong kamae so that there is no opportunity to launch a second or third attack.

Does Life Coaching Really Work?
Great question – I was sceptical in the beginning too…
So I want to share with you some research about coaching and its effectiveness.
Life coaching is still a relatively new field, and there is plenty to be sceptical about. To someone who has never heard of life coaching, or barely knows what a life coach is and does, the benefits and possibilities can sound a little far-fetched at first.
The truth is there are millions of people who feel stuck, unhappy, lost, confused and lacking confidence. Lets face it; we have all felt this way at various times in our lives.
Thanks to a study from the International Coaching Federation (ICF), there are plenty of statistics that prove the effectiveness of coaching. For example, here are 4 benefits identified by clients from an ICF survey:
- 80% of clients improved their self-confidence
- 73% of clients improved their relationships
- 72% of clients improved their communication skills
- 67% of clients improved their work-life balance
The following infographic shows that coaching not only works, but can totally transform your life!

What kind of mindlessness allows one to put sunscreen all over one's face, ears, neck, shoulders, the curve of the scapula, back of the arms, back, chest, abdomen, obliques, and then forget one's legs! Mine, apparently.
Day One Afternoon: Legs look a little red. "Probably a little burnt," I say to myself, as I slap a bandage over the scrapes I got while snorkeling. It'll no doubt itch with great zeal eventually but nothing to worry about now.
Day Two Morning: Burning. Fire. I awake to find that my legs have become two flaming pillars of pain stretched taut over my musculature. Every hair, follicle, and pore has merged into one large overly sensitive pain network eager to let my brain know just how much they all appreciated the burning they got yesterday. If I'm going to burn them, they think, then they'll burn me. Cold water stings with a feel of sheets of metal on first contact then soothes only as long as the water runs. Make pacts with more than 20 deities (some of which should be mutually exclusive but at this point, hey, what do I care. Pascal is totally my man.) that if I get through this, I will sacrifice a bottle of sunscreen to them every eclipse of the moon.
Day Two Afternoon: My legs could be endorsed by Michael Jordan. They plump when you cook them (and they're oh so red). Never have they been a better imitation of large sticks of kielbasa well-cooked.
Day Two Hours Past Midnight: Get up to get a drink of water. Foot hits the floor. Awakening pain. Visually imperceptible ripples through my skin translate to a thousand trite needles stabbing at my legs. How long can this last, I wonder. Gulp. How long can my legs remain cooked sausages. Gingerly walk back to bed. When will the pain stop?! Oh sweet forgetful slumber.
Day Three Morning: Oh. It feels a lot better. That's a relief.

You'd think they'd learn, even in far-leftist Portland OR: KATU:
ALBANY, Ore. – At the Oaks Apartments in Albany, the management can fly their own flag advertising one and two bedroom apartments – but residents have been told they can't fly any flags at all.
Jim Clausen flies the American flag from the back of his motorcycle. He has a son in the military heading back to Iraq, and the flag – he said – is his way of showing support.
"This flag stands for all those people," said Clausen, an Oaks Apartment resident. "It stands for the people that can no longer stand – who died in wars. That's why I fly this flag."
But to Oaks Apartment management, Clausen said, the American flag symbolizes problems.
He was told to remove the red, white and blue from both of his rides, or face eviction.
"It floored me," he said. "I can't believe she was saying what she was saying."
Even long-time residents like Sharron White, who has flown a flag on her car for eight years, has been told to take it down.
White said management told her that "someone might get offended."
Now, KATU points out in an update that the ban was removed a couple days after the story aired on their station. Gee, I wonder why that might be. Intense public pressure? Perhaps they mis-guessed as to who the offended parties would be?
If there's anything amazing about this story, it's that they keep popping up… people still have yet to learn.

It's me at work, I get presents. It is a pity that receiving gifts is a small part of my job.
But now I'm on vacation.
Richard, I saw a video with apricots. Today in the store I looked at the counters and realized that I would not find such apricots! Only cognac!
Here, Armenians sell apricots from Greece and Turkey. This leads me to a mercantile idea to get acquainted with one of them personally in order to get apricots from Armenia.
@Sam BigDeer
I've always loved reading your parables. If you tell a parable and drink cognac, you get a toast.
I just know a good Armenian toast.
In one house lies the old man. Suddenly he hears a knock at the door.
- Who's there?
- This is Love!
- I already had love, I do not need another.
Again knock.
- "Who is it again?"
- "This is health!"
- I was young, I was healthy and beautiful. Now I do not need it.
Again knock.
- And who is this?
- This is happiness! Okroy me, let in the house!
- "Why should I be happy now? I was happy".
And again someone knocked at the door to the old man.
- What do you need? Asked his grandfather.
"Rejoice, old man! Your wealth has come to you!"
- Why do I need it? I understood the price of money - they are worthless.
And then suddenly he heard cheerful voices, laughter and a knock at his window.
- Open up quickly! We are here, your faithful friends!
- The old man could not refuse friends, opened the doors before them. And together with friends the house came happiness, health, wealth and love.
So let always there will be friends! Then there will always be happiness, and love, and health, and wealth!
And thanks to all-all-all for the kind words!
Steve, you did not see me 4 days ago!
My neighbor next to the country house is digging a deep well this year. I climbed into this pile of land with my ears! More than 300 million years ago there was a sea here. I collected several packages of fossil blue clay. This clay is valued as a cosmetic. Therefore, I will pack it beautifully and give it to the ladies I know !
Dear ladies! It is a pity that you are far away. I would have brought it for you, too.

Ooohhh how I love being obedient!I LOVE ❤ when people tell me what to do.
I am super great at implementing!
But I hate hate making decisions.
Being obedient, is a free pass from making a decision. I love it.
Very often I will call my mom or text my friend Michelle, or my sister and say "tell me what to do with myself…"
Sometimes they say
"Go make a cup of coffee, pray…"
Sometimes they say "get up, do dishes first"
Sometimes they say " take the kids for a ride, order a pizza. "
Whatever they say. I . Do . It. Period.
You know how much pressure is off of me when someone tells me how and when to do something!?!?
I face 10 million teeny tiny decisions everyday, it's such a relief to follow orders.
A lot of people are scared of these 3 words Obedience, Authority, and Submissiveness.
Don't be. It's a beautiful, beautiful thing.
If you have ever said to a child, time to clean up, and they immediately say "yes mam" and start right away, then you can appreciate the beauty of obedience!!!
It shows trust, respect, love, self discipline and cooperation. It is proof that the parent – child relationship is healthy and functional.
When you tell a child "time to clean" and they ignore you, or whine and drag through the chore. The opposite feels true.
Don't be scared to be vulnerable to someone else in obedience. Especially someone that loves you and wants what is best for you. Be vulnerable to your spouse by letting them lead in big decisions. Be vulnerable to God when you have no idea where He is taking you. Submit to God's Will even at the expense of your own will. ( trust that he knows better than you) .
So what are some ways to increase your obedience level in your everyday life.
#1 When you husband tells you not to put knives in the dishwasher, or park in a certain spot don't dismiss the correction mentally. Say "ok" and then make a conscious effort to do that small tasks he asked of you.
#2 If you parents or grandparents can be abrasive and maybe critical try try to put your offended side away, and dig deep to see what good thing they meant for you.
#3 if your priest asks for you to forgive your brother or sister. Take it to heart , and try to submit to a challenge that u don't want to do. If your priest encourages you to go to confession. Go. If He asks you to read the bulletin … read that thing.( I need to submit to this one!)
There is Cajun joke, my mom says, if you really want to keep a secret, put it in the bulletin. 😂
Terrible. But seriously, I will try to start reading it.
# 4 If you feel that God has put a book on prayer, or discipline or finances in your life. Do the steps in the book as if God himself told you to do these things.
#5 If your alarm goes off. Submit to your alarm. Get up and Work for God.
#6 If your boss gives you an assignment you dread, do it with an obedient heart without grumbling.
These are God Given authorities in our life.
I've always heard instill obedience in children to parents they can see , so that one day they follow a God they can not see.
I believe God delights in our humble obedience, just like we rejoice in a child's obedience.
Things to not be obedient to, or to reject.
– lust
– Gluttony
– Self indulgence
– Pride
– Cultural Norms
– Love of money
– "Experts"
– Whims of Children
– Busyness
– Responsibilities that take away from primary vocation
God doesn't mind that we mess up 10,000 times , He sees our longing to please Him.
Hopefully He is smiling and saying "Well done, My good and Faithful servant" "you were so obedient and trustworthy in these tiny affairs that much will be entrusted to you!"
A religious must not consider the person of his superior, but God alone, for Whose sake he obeys. The fewer good qualities a superior has, the greater merit there is in obeying him. – Saint Francis of Assisi
Thank you for visiting!!

Made in the Midlands, the Midland's fastest-growing single industry network, will be returning to the Ricoh Arena, Coventry on the 1st July 2020 for the 11th edition of its Made in the Midlands Expo.
Scores of members and decision makers from across the Midlands have already signed up to participate in this year's event, including Schneider Electric, Hadley Group, East End Foods PLC, Coba Plastics, adi Group and WMG.
Many more are expected to sign up over the coming weeks but if you want to join them then you need to act quickly as stands are filling fast.
Close to 250 exhibitors helped to fill the Ricoh Arena last year, with stands representative of the diverse range of industries which characterise the sector in the region.
The powerful demonstration of manufacturing in the Midlands impressed the thousands of visitors who filed through the exhibition hall during the course of the show, looking to find out more about firms in the region.
Several visitors were so impressed by what they saw that they agreed to join the MIM ranks on the spot - testament to the growing strength and influence of this unique network.
We look forward to welcoming manufacturers from the Midlands and beyond on Wednesday 1st July to celebrate and champion that the best things truly are, made in the Midlands!
"We work in isolation a lot of the time and I think these events certainly give you the opportunity to interact with tens if not hundreds of individuals throughout the industry - it's an essential part of growing in the Midlands area. I think there's few forums at the moment this is probably the best."
Lee Price - Sales Director, adi Group Ltd
"There have been so many opportunities, lots of interest and people have come to us that we wouldn't have found otherwise."
Emma Holly - Managing Director, Lucy Castings
"It's a great environment for people to collaborate, meet like-minded people and get together to bounce ideas off each other."
Alan Norbury - Central Technology Officer, Siemens
"Made in the Midlands as a whole is very important to our business because we feel as a large employer in the area it's really important to engage with our with our local community and supply chain so to have all these suppliers all in one place has been fantastic."
Lee Rowland - Sales & Marketing Manager, Dennis Eagle
"Exhibitors and visitors are very friendly and I like that aspect of Made in the Midlands. You don't build relationships over emails, you build relationships by being here talking people and that's what it's all about."
Charles Boneham - Managing Director, Boneham and Turner
"The exhibitions provide an ideal platform for this to take place given the exposure they bring and we have been luckily enough to attract two new substantial customers to our business from the exhibitions alone."
Daniel Burton, Operations Director RSD Pressings

Each month, the Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA) brings Commissary products and prices to select locations away from their regular bricks and mortar stores. I'm not sure if it is my imagination, but it seems like the sales aren't being planned as far in advance as they were a few months ago.
I've just discovered several sales for the rest of April:
April 19 – 21 Coast Guard Base Astoria Sector Heli Hangar, 2185 SE 12th Place Warrenton, OR 97138 April 25 – 26 Camp Shelby Bldg. 2610 Camp Shelby, MS 39407 April 25 – 27 Camp Joseph T. Robinson Bldg 3000, Chappell Armory North Little Rock, AR 72199-9600 April 27 – 28 Guard and Reserve 4675 State Route 181 North Greenville, KY 42345 The links in these listings are to the sponsoring stores. Contact them to confirm details about dates, locations and times. Sometimes you can get lists of products and prices before you go to the sale. I really don't know if sequestration will affect future remote location sales. Overseas case lot sales have already been cancelled as the logistical costs are high.

The Bible tells us that Jesus can help us because He experienced the things that we experience: "In all things He had to be made like His brethren, that He might be a merciful and faithful High Priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people. For in that He Himself has suffered, being tempted, He is able to aid those who are tempted" (Hebrews 2:17-18). (more…)

Politics can be a hard and sometimes dirty business. During U.S. President Richard Nixon's administration, one of his top advisors, Charles "Chuck" Colson, called himself "Nixon's hatchet man". The president could always rely on Colson, no matter the political objective was. Colson's misplaced loyalty got him a jail sentence for the obstruction of justice during the Watergate affair.

United States District Court, D. Idaho
November 6, 2017
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff,v.CHRISTOPHER BOHNENKAMP, Defendant. NAME ADDRESS AMOUNT $2, 491, 253.76
Lynn Winmill Chief Judge.
April 26, 2017, Defendant Christopher Bohnenkamp pled guilty
to Counts 21 and 22 of the Indictment. On August 8, 2017, the
Court sentenced Bohnenkamp to a term of 63 months
imprisonment, followed by a term of 5 years supervised
release. The Court delayed its order on restitution, and held
a hearing on the matter on October 25, 2017. The Court now
issues the following restitution order.
primary goal of the Mandatory Victim Restitution Act
("MVRA") is to make victims whole. United
States v. Gordon, 393 F.3d 1044, 1048 (9th Cir. 2004).
District courts are to engage in an expedient and reasonable
restitution process, with uncertainties resolved with a view
toward achieving fairness to the victim." Id.
In 1990, Congress expanded the Victims and Witness Protection
Act's ("VWPA") definition of
"victim." See Pub. L. No. 101-647, § 2509, 104
Stat. 4789, 4863, 4931 (Nov. 29, 1990) (Crime Control Act of
1990) (codified at 18 U.S.C. § 3663(a)(2)). Now,
"when the crime of conviction includes a scheme,
conspiracy, or pattern of criminal activity as an element of
the offense, ... the restitution order [may] include acts of
related conduct for which the defendant was not
convicted." United States v. Brock-Davis, 504
F.3d 991, 999 (9th Cir.2007) (Internal citations omitted).
MVRA and VWPA use the same definition of victim, and the
Ninth Circuit interprets them the same. Id.
"[T]he term 'victim' means a person directly and
proximately harmed as a result of the commission of an
offense for which restitution may be ordered including, in
the case of an offense that involves as an element a scheme,
conspiracy, or pattern of criminal activity, any person
directly harmed by the defendant's criminal conduct in
the course of the scheme, conspiracy, or pattern."
In its
submissions and at the hearing, the government provided the
Court with evidence of the victims' losses in this case
by way of bills of sale, bank records, business records,
photos and appraisals. Bohnenkamp also provided some
documents and photos, as well as the testimony of Brian
Goehring, the former rigging manager at Bohnenkamp's
business. Before addressing this evidence and determining a
final amount of restitution, the Court will address whether
two categories of individuals are considered
"victims" for purposes of the MVRA and VWPA. Those
two categories of individuals are (1) material vendors, and
(2) 2012-13 boat and trailer purchasers.
explained above, a "victim" must have been directly
and proximately harmed as a result of the commission of the
offense. Brock-Davis, 504 F.3d at 999. And in the
case of an offense that involves as an element a scheme,
conspiracy, or pattern of criminal activity - as is the case
here - victims include anyone directly harmed by the
defendant's criminal conduct in the course of the scheme,
conspiracy, or pattern. Id. Bohnenkamp admitted the
following in his signed plea agreement:
In or about 2014, in the District of Idaho, the defendant
devised and intended to devise a scheme to obtain money and
property from customers and material vendors of TVM/BWC by
means of materially false and fraudulent pretenses,
representations and promises, and to misappropriate without
authority money and property belonging to customers and
material vendors of his companies. Knowing that TVM/B WC was
financially insolvent, from May of 2014 through December of
2014, the defendant continued to accept orders and upfront
payments from 13 new customers and parts on credit from
material vendors. At the time, he knew that the upfront
payments from new customers would be used to pay old debts
and complete the boats of existing customers, not to
construct the boats of the new customers or pay for new
parts. In doing so, the defendant acted with the intent to
deceive the new customers and material vendors. The false
representations and omissions that he made to new customers
and material vendors were material. The 13 new customers did
not receive the completed boats and trailers for which they
Bohnenkamp Plea Agreement, p.3, Dkt. 33. Thus,
Bohnenkamp admitted that the materia vendors were directly
harmed by his criminal conduct in the course of the scheme.
Under these circumstances, the material vendors are
"victims" in this case, and their losses will be
included in the restitution order.
the 2012-23 boat and trailer purchasers, the government
argues they are victims because Bohnenkamp told them
"lulling lies" and drew them into his ongoing
scheme. A lulling scheme typically involves communications by
the defrauder after he receives money "designed to lull
the victims into a false sense of security, postpone their
ultimate complaint to the authorities, and therefore make the
apprehension of the defendants less likely." U.S. v.
Manarite, 44 F.3d 1407, 1412 (9th Cir. 1995) (Internal
citation omitted). "In such a scheme, the mailing
reassures the victim that all is well, discouraging him from
investigating and uncovering the fraud." Id.
there is no allegation in the Indictment, and no basis in the
plea agreement, to conclude that Bohnenkamp fraudulently
obtained money from the 2012-13 boat and trailer purchasers.
Thus, there can be no assertion that these individuals were
discouraged from investigating or uncovering a fraud during
that time. At best, they were lulled into forgoing civil
claims against Bohnenkamp. Accordingly, the Court will not
include the 2012-13 boat and trailer purchasers in the loss
addressed the material vendors and the 2012-13 boat and
trailer purchasers, the Court turns to the evidence in
support of restitution. The Court finds that the evidence
presented by the Government, mainly government Exhibit A,
which includes bills of sale, bank records, photos of the
boats, and appraisals, supports the loss amount for each
victim listed in the Government's summary of the loss
amount. And the Court finds that the testimony of Brian
Goehring does nothing to dispute this evidence. Mr. Goehring
testified about the "percentage of completion" of
many of the boats, but he failed to provide any sort of
methodology for how he determined that percentage. More
importantly, he failed to provide the Court with any
information that would allow the Court to place a value on
the boats, and thus determine a loss amount. The Court notes
that it is not questioning Mr. Goehring's honesty in this
regard. The Court believes Mr. Goehring gave ...
