Godlings are what remains of a slain god. Cast down from the Astral Seas, the domains they once presided over have been snatched up by those who remain in power; generally, their former followers were taken, slain or forgotten, and all evidence for the former god's existence was wiped clean by their former enemies and rivals.
A godling is created when the spark of divine energy that once burned in the heart of a god is reborn in the weak body of a mortal. Godlings come in all shapes and sizes, in all forms and in all shapes; they don't necessarily resemble their biological parents, for the deity incarnated within them supersedes all notion of species or race. While godlings generally know a little of their former life, they almost never recall all aspects of it. Many of their memories are lost to the waves of the Astral Sea, or buried far too deeply in their consciousness to be reclaimed. Most godlings are fiercely devoted to a single task, or goal; whether it be destroying one of their oldest rivals, or returning to their former glory, they will not allow any being, divine or mortal, to stay in their way.
Play a godling if you want...
- To have a far deeper connection to divinity and the Astral Sea than others.
- To be deeply devoted to a single cause or goal.
- To be the reincarnation of a being far greater than yourself.
- To be the closest thing to a deity.
- To be a member of a race that favors the Invoker, Avenger, Cleric and Warlock classes.
Physical Qualities[edit]
Godlings are incredibly diverse and different, and as such, have a possibly limitless amount of forms. While many of them take the form of bipedal humanoids, it is not unheard of for a god to incarnate himself in the form of a majestic animal or vicious beast. No matter what form a Godling takes, however, it is usually unnaturally perfect and invokes a sense of majesty upon the mortals who witness it. Not all godlings are universally 'pretty', however they do all appear to be much greater than what can be seen and often seem to be incredibly fantastic.
A reoccurring element on the godling's physical forms is a lattice of brightly colored tattoos that cover the godling's body. These tattoos are an ancient form of runes, and are created naturally to help contain the divine essence of a god into their natural body. The runes can be of any color and shape, and generally give insight into the alignment and personality of the involved godling. They cannot be removed, and when they skin on which they are drawn is removed, they will form over the layer beneath. If a godling wears an article of clothing for too long, the designs will appear over that material as well, and remain printed on them even if they are removed. Stronger godlings have a more complex network of runes.
Godlings can usually sire children, however they are not other godlings, even if the child's other parent was a second godling. The children of godlings generally have a greater connection to the Astral Sea than other mortals, but are otherwise normal mortals of whichever species its parents were genetically. Godlings have an infinite life span, and will not die unless killed. A slain godling will return their soul to the Astral Sea, which will reincarnate into a new godling within a few centuries. The newborn godling does not retain the memories of its previous life as a godling, aside from details related to their ultimate goal.
Playing a Godling[edit]
The personality of a godling is generally identical to their personality as a god. In most cases, they see themselves as naturally superior to other mortals, but attempt not to flaunt it or act egotistical unless it serves a direct point. They are generally curt, quick to anger and impatient, but they get along well with allies. A godling never compromises their beliefs, and often fails to care about the feelings of beliefs of others; they are correct, and others are wrong, it is simple as that. They often find it difficult to reason with mortals, but generally get their way due to the persuasive properties of Supernal and the aura of supremacy they radiate. They think in black and white terms, and very rarely face a problem of morals- they are incredibly decisive, and never feel that they have to justify themselves, which can often lead to conflicts with members of the group that don't agree with some of their decisions.
Godlings usually have a respect for the gods they worked with and were allied along with in life, but rarely worship anyone aside from themselves. While some godlings may choose to become a vassal for a previously allied god in order to work back up the chain to true divinity again, many of them feel betrayed by their own kind and would balk at the prospect of running back to them for aid. They are not reverent of other beings, even those stronger than themselves, and each has a unique sense of honor that almost always prevents them from sincerely devoting themselves to a different deity.
Godlings are an incredibly rare race, and thus never make societies of their own. Two godlings existing simultaneously is a momentously rare occasion, and few mortals even recognize a godling when they see it, nor know the differences between them and demigods. Godlings almost never stay in a single place too often, as their individual quests usually leads them to travel the land in search of something specific. They call nowhere but the Astral Sea home, and make few friends. They do not usually stay in touch with their mortal family, but they do on occasion uphold their traditions, and sometimes even their beliefs.
Godlings favor pure colors and flowing garments. They are most comfortable around magic, and they prefer not to use things that are of the earth itself. They prefer extreme colors, such as black or white, or primary colors. Silver and iron are generally their favored metals, and they dislike impurities of any sort in anything.
Godling Characteristics: Single-minded, persistent, arrogant, righteous, ambitious, powerful, royal, mystical, destructive, parental, vengeful, unique, god-like
Male Names: Adorel, Akar, Bek, Cine, Doru, Forunlek, Jogun, Sobek, Ra, Set, Ker, Quetzelcoatl, Zora
Female Names: Ariel, Artemis, Bas, Erinne, Io, Olira, Kyra, Yata, Zio
Godling Adventurers[edit]
Three sample Godling adventurers are described below.
Salem is a godling Avenger who wishes to destroy Kord. He believes that the god of storms betrayed him in the heat of battle, and stabbed him in the back, taking over his dominion as the lord of combat and battle. Sickened at how mortals still revere the sly traitor, Salem nourished the divine spark in his soul to a blade-sharp pitch before he left on his mission, and he's willing to slaughter any enemy of his that gets in way of his path to murdering a deity.
Pele is a godling Invoker who can't remember most of her life as a deity. Though she knew that she was once a denizen of the Astral Sea, attempting to recall what she was like and what her previous motivations were just results in a blistering headache and a feeling of futility. She'd like to return to her status in order to understand what she can't recall, and why she can recall it, but she isn't sure if she wants to know what she forgot. After all, sometimes secrets aren't meant to be known.
Iyantis is a godling Barbarian who formerly wanted to destroy all organic life. A god of destructive war and genocide, he felt the only true victory would come when the mortal plane itself was annihilated, and was destroyed when the gods felt he was becoming too dangerous. Angered at this perceived betrayal, he has decided that not even the Astral Sea will escape his anger, and bends the elements of the mortal world to his will in order to destroy his enemies. However, as he mingles with his group and people who care for him, he finds himself doubting himself a little. Is destruction really the only way? Why do things feel so different for him now that he lives in the mortal realm? And the biggest question- what does he want, now?

There's only one KaZAM! Footrest, Footrest, Footrest! We can't say it enough! KaZAM is the only balance bike with a patented footrest design. It is the key to success-for several reasons:
1. KaZAM's foot platform is in the natural position where a child would be placing their feet if coasting on a pedaled bike.
2. This position helps them find their center of gravity, thereby enhancing their balance and easing the transition onto a pedaled bike.
3. It's way more comfortable than holding your legs out to the side!
4. We've seen many images of children on other balance bikes (ahem!) with their legs scrunched up onto the frame just trying to figure out what the heck to do with their legs once they've gained enough momentum to actually coast. Solution- KaZAM!
The ONLY balance bike with an easy step-in patented FOOTREST design.
KaZAM's Footrest is in the natural place, where feet would be if coasting on a pedaled bike, helping to find their center of gravity.

Do you rent? Do you have limited if any space to grow vegetables this summer? Are you thinking about moving apartments in June or September? Do you hesitate to garden because you might have to buy a lot of new supplies?
Good news: if you're willing to be creative and resourceful, YOU can have an easy container garden this season! There are a few key items that you will need, and a few key facts that will help your plants thrive.
Key Materials:
-SOIL: The most important and sometimes most expensive item for city gardeners. I recommend mixing a bagged organic potting mix with compost to prevent compaction and promote more even water release. Your mix can last up to two years, but after that should be dumped on a tarp or in a bigger container, mixed up with new additions of compost, and used to refill containers. The best way to get compost is to have a compost bin or worm bin the year before you start to compost. If you're a Cambridge resident (or drag a friend who is along), you can get small amounts of FREE compost from the recycling center! I called to confirm that this program still exists – it does. Just make sure to go during their open hours and bring your own container. If neither of these options works for you, check out the organic bagged soil options at your local garden or hardware store – then at least your dollars support local businesses.
-CONTAINERS: We get free four and five gallon buckets from Tufts Dining Services for sap collection during the Somerville Maple Syrup Project. Usually large food-grade containers (you wouldn't want to garden in old chemical containers!) can be found in the recycling dumpsters by large food service operations. Keeping an eye on the streets on trash day during the spring can be rewarding – neighbors buy large potted plants and plant them, leaving the plastic containers for the garbage truck. Make sure to get a large enough pot for your desired plant with drainage holes (can be poked or stabbed).
-SEEDS or SEEDLINGS: Both Cambridge Whole Foods (River and Prospect St.) sell High Mowing Seeds, one of the only organic options in stores. If you're on top of your game, you can order from seed catalogues. This year, we're almost past that point. If these options don't work for you, get what you can find in the grocery or hardware store and plan ahead next year. Local Farmer's markets and seedling sales support local farms and community groups. Locally owned garden stores are also good bets for finding vegetable seedlings. If you get seedlings, find out what local community sales or sites are planned for the spring. Buying from chain stores is as problematic as buying food from chain stores – seedlings come from far away and are all raised together, enabling the easy spread of disease across the nation.
Key Tips:
-Plants need sun. Plants are extremely resourceful when living in questionable situations, but you should place containers in the sunniest place possible. I've grown heat-loving plants like tomatoes under a porch roof with great success, but they are on the south-west edge of that porch and get great afternoon light.
-Keep containers evenly moist. In the middle of the summer, on hot days, this might mean watering in the morning and at night. It also means that you should make sure that excess water can drain out holes in the bottom of your containers, especially if containers are not under a roof. I used an awl to poke holes in the bottom of my containers before filling them, and have them sitting in large, edged plastic plates. This keeps water from leaking out everywhere – I water until I see it start to drip out the bottom.
-If planting seeds, make sure to follow guidelines on the back of the packet. Depth in the soil, and planting at the right time of year is key for successful seedlings.
-Make sure your pots are big enough! I've seen too many small containers on porches and front stoops holding struggling tomatoes and other veggies. The root system of a healthy plant is as big as the above-ground growth. Use 2-5 gallon containers for most veggies. Some herbs can grow in smaller containers.
-Keep an eye out for diseases and pests. Most can be treated easily if caught early. IF you notice something unusual, google it and include "organic" in your search terms. The internet can be a wonderful and free resource! You'll learn as you go, don't feel like you need to read a lot of books and become an expert before you even start.
Check out other blogs! There are a lot of innovative people experimenting with container gardening. A few I've enjoyed recently include:

Lahore- World Oral Health Day (WOHD) is celebrated globally every year on March 20th to promote worldwide awareness about the issues regarding oral health and to highlight the importance of good oral hygiene maintenance. It is an international day to celebrate and raise awareness about the diseases of the oral cavity. Many diseases of the body are caused by improper brushing and poor oral hygiene maintenance, therefore oral health in any respect cannot be given less weightage than systemic health.
Chaudhry Muhammad Akram Dental Hospital (CMADH) facilitated a whopping number of 364 patients as a gesture of solidarity with World Oral Health Day. The dental team celebrated this day with great fervor and ensured the event be carried out in the best possible manner. As it is evident that dental/oral diseases result in impairment and physical disabilities that have impact on social, emotional and psychological aspects of life; therefore all the patients visiting the hospital were educated about the importance of consuming healthy diet, developing a habit of twice daily brushing, flossing and good oral hygiene maintenance to avoid dental diseases. Free dental screening was carried out and free tooth brush and tooth paste samples were distributed among patients.
Team CMADH is deeply indebted to Rector Superior University Dr Sumaira Rehman, Director General Superior University, Mr. Pirzada Sami Ullah Sabri, and Registrar Superior University Mr. Khawaja Hisham Ul Hassan for gracing the occasion with their presence. We would like to thank the departments of Management Sciences, English Language, Architecture, Security and Mass communication at Superior University who actively participated in the event and supported us in bringing home the importance of good oral hygiene. The event was organized by Dental News & Powered by Shield Muskurahat.

Spring Into Southern Cuisine At Memphis Cafe
Brunch 8 a.m. – 3 p.m., Dinner 5 p.m. – 9:30 p.m., Happy Hour 3 p.m. – 6 p.m.
Chef Diego Velasco of Memphis Cafe in Costa Mesa lives the chef's dream. He's a classically trained chef who cooks refined cuisine in an unrefined setting, proving that you don't need the stuffiness of white-tablecloths to have a memorable meal.
Find his restaurant in a cool, mid-century modern building near the ever-so-hip LAB Anti-Mall in Costa Mesa. The shape of the restaurant reminds me of a Palm Springs' diner; the inside is neat and functional in a Brady Bunch sort of way, but at night the low light and velvet curtain accents make it feel moody and cozy — like the perfect type of place for a first date.
This small corner on Bristol Street in Costa Mesa wouldn't be the same without Memphis Cafe. It's a neighborhood mainstay that's awarded and critically acclaimed since it first opened in 1995. Patrons celebrate Chef Velasco's unique riff on classic, southern, home-style-cooking; Southern-food is not by nature refined, but Chef Velasco approaches it with a refined hand. Proper technique and artfully plated dishes grace the menu for brunch, happy hour and dinner.
And like any good chef, Chef Velasco cooks to the season. However, his loyal following at Memphis makes it hard to make too many dramatic changes. Take off his Buttermilk Fried Chicken or Gumbo, and a riot might ensue. So instead, Chef is tasked with keeping the classics and re-imagining everything else. The inspiration for his new spring menu rewinds to the beginning of Memphis Cafe — when it was an idea, not a concept; a dream, not reality. When he was 19, he lived with a Southern rock band from Louisiana while they were touring California. In that time he learned about gumbo and how to cook black-eyed peas. He's not Cajun, but he's a self-defined Francophile, and this characteristic influenced his studies at The California Culinary Academy in San Francisco in 1994— straight to the grand opening of Memphis Cafe in 1995. He was only 23.
"My inspiration for the new dinner menu came from Memphis Cafe's humble beginnings, over 20 years ago, as a food, drink and community destination. You will see seasonal interpretations of our classics alongside new dishes focused on presentation and fresh flavors that highlight the various regions of American cuisine." – Chef Velasco
Lucky me, I sampled his spring menu and rolled out wondering why it had taken me so long to find my way to Memphis. The so-called California cuisine that defines our region can be tiresome after awhile. How many avocado/ahi-tuna combinations can we stomach? Hence, why taking a trip south to Memphis Cafe is so eye-opening. That and $10 Buttermilk Fried Chicken on Tuesdays. Get 'um while they're hot!
Here are some highlights from the new Spring Menu at Memphis Cafe
Boudin Balls
Ground, smoked pork, seasoning, rice, and vegetables, rolled into meatballs and roasted, then coated with corn flakes. Served with collard greens, pancetta, hot pepper-honey sauce and grilled bread
Fried Green Tomato and Lobster Salad Tarragon
smoked paprika vinaigrette, dandelion greens
Roasted Beet Poke Sesame
scallions, fried beet chips, hazelnuts, gorgonzola
Buttermilk Fried Chicken
collard greens, mashed potatoes, famous country gravy
Sticky Toffee Monkey Bread
bourbon caramel, whipped cream, toffee crumble

Do you want to be a part of the climate change solution but just don't know what to do?
Asheville High School is competing again this year in the Drawdown EcoChallenge, and we want you to join us! [See "Drawn to Action: Sarah Duffer Shifts Student Consciousness on Climate Change," April 3, Xpress.]
The book Drawdown: The Most Comprehensive Plan Ever Proposed to Reverse Global Warming, which was published in 2017, identifies and quantifies the 100 top solutions to reversing climate change, and the Drawdown Organization has created a competition that runs through April 24.
Individuals in our school community are selecting any number of the 80 challenges that span seven sectors, and they are taking steps that reverse climate change every day. Our initial goal was "to have every environmental science student on campus identify, communicate and practice concrete actions that reverse climate change." However, we want to broaden our scope.
Asheville High School's Drawdown EcoChallenge team is asking you, Western North Carolina, to either join our team or to create your own teams. You can access the Asheville High team's page through the "Students" tab on the Asheville High School webpage [avl.mx/2p5] or create your own through the organization's website [avl.mx/5vk]. Then select what actions you want to take this month to address climate change. It's that simple.
Let's work together to show the world that Asheville truly is the Climate City!
Thank you for your time and support.
— Sarah Duffer and the Asheville High School

Brexit is happening and businesses need to get used to it fast and take the necessary steps to ensure that they are prepared for a new political and commercial reality, says Nelson Ogunshakin.
As the clocks continue to count down on the time the UK has left in the EU, business leaders in all industries must look to the future and be prepared. There can no longer be a debate about whether Brexit should or should not happen. It is happening and the concern of all businesses must be making themselves 'Brexit ready'.
Historically, as an industry we have depended on Europe. With the uncertainty of what it means to leave, those of us representing the industry have been vying for government consideration and action. Action to ensure that initiatives are put in place now for future commercial viability of those UK firms working in infrastructure.
We have not, as a country, proactively played to our strength in leveraging up to offer our collective capability in planning, development, financing, execution and operation of major infrastructure services to other countries.
Successfully we have delivered major iconic projects such as London 2012, Crossrail, Heathrow T5, The Shard, major hospitals, education facilities and more, to the envy of the world. However, we have historically failed to leverage on such success.
The UK infrastructure sector has always been at the vanguard of progressive change on planning, financing, procurement, operations and maintenance of major infrastructure investment assets. The combination of Crossrail with London Underground operational capabilities is a classic model that could be exported to a number of emerging countries. Such a holistic infrastructure investment delivery solution approach could enhance economic transformation and be a game changer for the recipient country.
This July the government launched an initiative called Infrastructure Exports: UK (IE:UK), a collaboration with 17 leading UK firms to help UK companies to secure major international contracts. Through initiatives like this, we as an industry must shape a vehicle through which we are able to promote our services around the world.
Such efforts must be supported by the industry and all firms must engage now to change the dynamics of our industry to best achieve success in 2019 and beyond.
Having worked historically with UKTI to improve industry input into government initiatives and continued with the Trade Challenge partnership with the Department for International Trade, ACE will continue to work to ensure the voice of the industry is heard.
It will take more support and action such as this from government, as well as true engagement of businesses now, to ensure that by 2019 our industry has a commercially viable future post-Brexit.
Dr Nelson Ogunshakin OBE is the chief executive of the Association for Consultancy and Engineering.

Measuring a person's metabolic rate allows you to construct an effective weight loss plan based on individual caloric needs. In the past, these measurements have only been available by using cumbersome, expensive equipment, and were generally only available at hospitals. The MetaCheck is simple to use and maintain, using disposable testing supplies and requiring no additional computer to operate.
All the Features of CardioCoach VO2 fitness testing PLUS resting metabolic rate measurement (RMR). An RMR measurement uses oxygen consumed at rst to determine a person's calroic requrements for weight loss or maintenance. Facilities that offer nutritional counseling can add this very valuable assessment tool for only a slight increase in cost.
Utilizing VO2 Max data to achieve meaningful results has never been easier! Upload your clients results to KORR's app and you can take advantage of everything this exciting app has to offer:
Much of the simplicity and affordability of the CardioCoach is due to the design that only analyzes oxygen consumption, the V-slpe method. The CardioCoachCO2 has the added hardware and complexity to support CO2 analysis. A computer is required for viewing and printing the data. This product is an excellent option for the more technical user who wants to "play" with the dta, compare AT detect methods, and who has the expertise to analyze raw data.
The CardioCoach delivers simple and accurate fitness testing based on oxygen consumption. This data can be used the foundation for customized exercise programs that truly meet the needs of the individual. It is so simple to use that any of your current employees can perform a VO2 Max test. It is affordable, allowing even small gyms, personal trainers and educators to own state of the art VO2 Max test equipment.

February 14 is just around the corner. Are you ready? Do you need a reminder about what day this is? In need of some shopping tips?
For most of us, February 14 means Valentine's Day. It's time to make plans regarding cards, candy, flowers, gifts, dinner reservations and the like for the one(s) we love. Once New Year's Day passes, the stores are filled with red and pink merchandise and reminders of this much celebrated day in our culture. Red hearts and talk of "love" abound.
For 2018, both Valentine's Day and Ash Wednesday are on the same day. Yes, Ash Wednesday is February 14 and the Lenten season begins this year on this day of "love". Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the Lenten season of preparation for Holy Week and Easter. It is a 40-day period where we as Christians are encouraged to examine ourselves, reflect upon our sinfulness and the forgiveness that we have in Christ Jesus. It is a time to reflect upon the greatest single act of love ever undertaken, the ultimate Valentine. It is the self-less, sacrificial agape love that God showed for us in sending His only Son, Jesus Christ to be our Savior.
On Valentine's Day, we celebrate the love we share in those special relationships with spouses, family, and friends. These are indeed blessings from God. Ash Wednesday and Lent direct us to the greatest act of love, when Jesus willingly gave up His life on the cross and rose again so that we who have that saving faith relationship with Him will live with Him forever in heaven.
So, for this February 14, why not celebrate both the blessings and joys of earthly relationships and love on Valentine's Day and join us here for our February 14, Ash Wednesday worship service at 7pm? I can't imagine a better way to start our Lenten journey together, powered by the Spirit and the love of Christ. May we remember to give thanks to God this February 14, this Ash Wednesday, this Lenten season and every day of our life for the greatest gift of love the world has ever known, the gift of His love in His Son, Jesus Christ. Moved by the power of the Holy Spirit, may we love others as God has first loved us.
"Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. This is how God showed His love among us; He sent His one and only Son into the world that we might live through Him. This is love; not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His only Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear Friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another." 1 John 4: 7 – 11
In Jesus,
Pastor Tim

Agent Orange studies were mandated by Congress in the 1980s. These studies were headed by Dr. Frank DeStefano, and Dr. Coleen Boyle of the CDC, who are now in charge of vaccine safety studies at the agency. Frank and Coleen ended the Agent Orange studies two years early, emphasizing that "no link" would be found between illnesses being reported by injured veterans and Agent Orange. The early termination of the study is what allowed the US Department of Veterans Affairs to deny any connection between Agent Orange and medical problems, preventing veterans and their families from qualifying for fair compensation. The Boyle/DeStefano team's deception was outed by Admiral Zumwalt, who went to the President and laid out the science in a classified report (which has now been declassified):

The leading cause of death and personal injury in the United States is motor vehicle accidents. The devastating effects of car accidents on North Carolina victims and their families cannot be negated, but when the accident is due to drunk driving, the futility of it all seems even more evident. It seems as if too many drivers have become complacent and overconfident in their driving abilities, especially when under the influence.
Some accidents can purely be ascribed to genuine mistakes, but more often than not poor driving and unsafe practices of the driver are the causes of car accidents. North Carolina legislation stipulates that a victim injured in an accident resulting from the negligence or recklessness of another driver, or the family of a deceased victim, is entitled to compensation for damages resulting from the accident. Drunk driving, disobeying traffic laws and excessive speed are driving practices which is indicative of driver negligence.

Green Supply Chain Management Practices and Performance of ISO 14001 Certified Manufacturing Firms in East Africa
Odock, Stephen O
MetadataShow full item record
Increasing levels of environmental degradation by manufacturing firms has resulted in heterogeneous pressures from various organizational groups on the need for them to conduct environmentally friendly operations. A viable option for these firms has been the implementation of green supply chain practices. The key concern however is whether the implementing these practices actually lead to improved performance. The main objective of this study therefore was to examine the relationship between the implementation of GSCM practices and performance of ISO 14001 certified firms in East Africa. Specifically, the study investigated the key institutional pressures that cause firms to implement these practices and how environmental performance, operational performance, relational efficiency and firm characteristics influence the relationship between implementing the practices and organizational performance. To achieve the objectives, five broad hypotheses were formulated. Through the use of positivist research paradigm and descriptive crosssectional research design, primary data was collected from persons in charge of environmental issues in ISO 14001 manufacturing firms in East Africa. The study achieved a response rate of 62%. Based on the objectives, the study findings are that, first, coercive and normative pressures are significant in causing the firms to implement GSCM practices, mimetic pressures are not significant; second, there is a statistically significant positive direct relationship between implementation of GSCM practices and organizational performance; third, environmental and operational performance fully mediate the relationship between GSCM practices and organizational performance. It was also noted that the inclusion of environmental and operational performance constructs increased the variance explained in organizational performance from 14.2% to 59%; fourth, relational efficiency does not mediate the relationships between GSCM practices and environmental performance, GSCM practices and operational performance and GSCM practices and organizational performance. Fifth, firm size, firm age and spatial scope of the market served by the firm do not positively moderate the relationship GSCM practices and organizational performance. The study therefore confirms existence of a positive link between GSCM practices and organizational performance thus helping to reduce the uncertainty which has arisen out of contradictory findings from past studies on whether it is beneficial to pursue these practices. In essence, it can be concluded that a firm will experience improved marketing and financial performance as a result of GSCM activities having a positive impact on its operations or are giving positive environmental impression to its customers who would eventually provide more business opportunities to the firm. The results support the natural resource based view that GSCM practices affords the firm an opportunity for competitive advantage and performance improvement through unique causally ambiguous and socially complex resources. The study recommends that manufacturing firms should implement environmentally sound practices in all phases of the supply chain, beginning with procurement of raw materials through to design, manufacture, packaging, distribution and end of life disposal of their products. Regulators can use the findings to scale up the level of implementation of GSCM practices by enforcing stricter environmental legislation and giving incentives to firms that have already implemented these practices. The findings also provide future researchers' with a useful conceptual and methodological reference to pursue further studies in this under-studied GSCM area especially in the African context.

It's exciting day for my blog, because we have a guest blogger! I was curious to see what IJM and Kampala look like through a different pair of eyes, so I asked Rachel to give some reflections on her time in Uganda. She's a gifted writer, and it's always amusing to read first-hand accounts of a first-time boda ride and such other distinctly Ugandan adventures.
————————————A Guest Post by Rachel———————————————
Wedged between the driver and Krista as we weaved our way among Kampala traffic, I prayed fervently that this, only perhaps my 3rd time on a boda boda, would not be the end. I was still getting accustomed to the sensations of whizzing down the roads clogged with traffic, bracing myself for the (more than) occasional bumps, and trying not to slide so close to the driver that my face was pressed into his back. Besides all that, I was holding something very precious.
It had been a long day full of the joys and frustrations of life in Uganda. You know – drivers being 40 minutes late to pick you up, ants attacking you and your picnic lunch, technology not working, slow internet, sudden rain storms that delay plans, and ATMs that seem to steal your money.
Of course, among all that were the joys that also fill one's life here: early morning walks on quiet streets, views of the beautiful Lake Victoria, riding a motorcycle along the bumpy red roads of a village and feeling like "this is Africa", meandering among the tropical plants and birds of a huge garden, and quality conversations.
So back to the boda ride… After all our adventures that day, we were headed off to meet some friends for a nice meal to celebrate Krista's birthday. And somehow I ended up being the one to have to carry the precious homemade cheesecake that we had made (quite a feat, considering you can't buy cream cheese here). I gripped that pan as tightly as I could and prayed that the last disaster of the day would not be the cheesecake flying out of my hands on a bump. Although there was one close call with a man-sized pothole, everyone (and the cheesecake) arrived safely and we had a lovely meal with Krista's friends at the restaurant.
Sometimes daily life is here just made up of dealing with inconveniences and rising above them. And that's something Krista is learning, as am I. How do you deal with inefficient systems and ways of life that are downright irritating as Westerners? Sometimes with cries of frustration, understandably so. I suppose it all comes down to a matter of perspective. After the initial outburst, will you move on and remember your purpose, or let it bog you down and make you bitter towards circumstances and even people?
From my observations, Krista is practicing the former. She's not perfect, but she remembers the ways that God has blessed her in a day and the joys He's given her. It was a good reminder for me that we can easily be distracted by the little things that weigh us down – little things that can easily turn into a heavy burden. But we have each been given incredible opportunities wherever we are, to serve and glorify our gracious Father. And He has given us a yoke that is "easy and light."
I was so privileged to be able to spend a few days living life alongside Krista, getting to experience IJM and Kampala. Much of what Krista does is behind-the-scenes work for IJM's work there. Sometimes that can be frustrating when things don't work well or take much longer than they should.
For example, she had to deliver a certain document to the USAID office at the U.S. Embassy. Simple, right? But first she had to find a folder that looked professional and fit the size of the papers, print out the papers and individually hole punch each piece of paper because 3-hole punches don't exist in Uganda, and then she had to sit on the back of a boda for an hour, winding her way all around town in order to avoid traffic, all to hand over the document. However, what she does enables others to do their job better.
I really enjoyed getting to meet many of the IJM staff and see how passionate they are about their jobs and serving God and their people in this way. The best part was their devotion time in the morning, which always starts with singing. Wow, can they sing. It was like sitting among a beautiful choir as they harmonized with each other and focused their day in on the purpose for being there.
And that's what I loved about my visit!

Let your inner world shine.
private life art experiences
The Private Life Art Experience is an antidote to the fleeting and consumable digital landscape, whose currency is constant public expression, increasingly diminishing the value of privacy.
Acting as an agent for sharing and preservation, I empower you in a collaborative process that gives space to your inner world.
Together, we will create a meaningful and personal artwork that captures that which is hidden, and poetically holds it, like no other memento you will find.
What should you expect?
Private Life Art Experience sessions are held at my waterfront studio in a historic neighborhood of Miami Beach and last approximately one hour.
*Custom location available as well.
In this relaxed and sensory atmosphere, I invite you to select from a range of original, colorful watercolors on archival paper, which serve as your canvas to share your thoughts, ideas, and to go free, expressing yourself using colored ink over the existing pigment.
After each session, I apply additional media to the surface to finish the piece, prior to it being delivered to you within three to four weeks.
The session can be done individually, or shared with one person, a family, or group – depending on the intention, and is an experience that is both directed by me, as part this specific body of my work, yet is completely open to the stories that each person wishes to share.
Pricing is based on the size of the work.
Frequently asked questions:
What is an art experience exactly?
It's so much more than just purchasing an art piece for your collection! You become an important part of my creative process by interacting with your painting. I invite you to share your innermost thoughts in the paper, that I will later cover with paint so they remain private.
I am not particularly creative, or an artist myself. Does that matter?
Not at all! Do not worry about having to perform artistically on paper. That is my job. I will guide you in a way that will make you feel extremely comfortable and safe to express yourself in whichever format you want (writing, drawing, etc..).
Can my kids participate in my experience?
Yes! Family is so important, and this is one very special way to have a bonding experience with your most loved ones. This will become a painting that your family enjoys for years to come, and your kids and their kids will inherit.
How do I get to work on the painting? Do I go to you, or do you come to me?I will accommodate this part of the process to your lifestyle. You are invited to come and work on your piece in my Miami Design District space, or we can schedule a visit to your home. We can also work in several of my favorite special locations around the city of Miami, such as the Pinecrest Gardens, The Kampong Botanical Garden among others.
I live out of the Miami-Dade area, do you still offer this experience out of town?
Absolutely! I've worked remotely with collectors from all over the world. Physical presence is not required; I've created very special pieces for collectors who live abroad and they still became part of the creation process. Travel arrangements can also be made for me to globetrot my way to you.
Contact me to discuss details.
How can I have an idea of my finished painting will look like?We'll talk about what your personal style is and I will suggest a color palette inspired by your own life. We can also look at images of my work and you can let me know what tickles your fancy. Bright and colorful, moody and dark or elegantly neutral, rest assured that I will create the most beautiful piece of art for you.
I'm interested, how do I start?
Request an art experience by filling out the form on this page and I will get back to you through email promptly.
How long does it take from start to finish?
It usually takes me between 2-4 weeks to finish a large painting. It depends a lot on how booked my studio schedule is, and the size of your painting.
How much is an art experience?Prices vary depending on the size. Contact me for pricing schedule.
Can I just buy one of your pieces without the experience?
Yes. Visit this page to see available work , or contact me through email to book a studio visit.

I was asked to do the treat for my son's "spring" party. The room mom requested something different than cookies or cupcakes. And I was told the kids would be at my station for 15 minutes. Well, eating a snack does not take 15 minutes, and I didn't want to have a lot of idle time on my hands so I came up with this cute treat idea. A "craft" and treat all in one!
1. Make your basic "dirt cup." We used chocolate ice cream for the base. Pudding also works, but ice cream was easier in this situation. Then, add a couple of scoops of crushed oreos. The room mom used her food processor to crush them, and got it really fine without the frosting getting all over. I have also used chocolate teddy grahams for less mess. Dirt cups must have a gummy worm! We also added some gummy bunnies.
2. Provide a whole array of marshmallows. We got small and large, and also provided white and colored. Using toothpicks and marshmallows, construct a bunny. This is so open-ended, and the kids did a great job! They used scissors to cut the marshmallows, if they wanted. We also provided food markers so they could make a face on their bunny. And all bunnies need a carrot, so we bought those candy orange slices and cut them into triangles to resemble carrots. (You can see mine at the bottom right. Some of the kids had their bunny holding it. So cute!)
So much fun! Wouldn't your little bunnies love this as an Easter treat?!

This indoor way to show your kids how vegetables grow is almost trippy! All you need is a head of romaine and a small glass jar. Then watch the magic happen.
Cut the leaves from the base of the romaine. Use the leaves for a big salad of course. I also gave my budding chef some of the leaves to play with in his set of pots and pans.
Meanwhile, trim the very bottom of the romaine head off thinly – this will help it absorb more water.
Here is a slightly skeptical Travis checking out the early stage of our experiment.
Place in a glass of water, making sure the base is completely covered, and place somewhere sunny. Change the water every day and watch your romaine sprout!
Within a day we had a few little leaves.
The picture at the top of this post shows growth after about 4 days. We can't wait until we have enough for a fresh salad!
If you want to continue the fun, try the same experiment with a fennel bulb. You can also save the tops of carrots or radishes, place in a shallow dish with water, and watch for fresh greens to emerge. Thanks to Parents magazine for the idea!
Update: Here's the lettuce about a week in, as tall as we let it grow. Honestly it was beginning to brown slightly around the edges, so I'm not sure I'd recommend growing it longer.
But needless to say, Travis was thrilled!

text: The hairs that make geckos' feet sticky have inspired the invention of adhesives for flat surfaces, but creating strong adhesives that can grab complex, 3D objects has proved a challenge. Metin Sitti at the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems in Stuttgart, Germany, and his colleagues spread elastic microfibres, or 'hairs', across a soft, stretchy membrane, allowing it to mould and stick to a surface. The team attached this to a 'gripper' layer. Reducing the pressure inside the gripper spreads the load evenly across the sticky membrane, strengthening the bond between it and the target object. Changing the pressure in the system increased the membrane's 'stickiness' 14-fold, allowing the device to suspend a variety of hard and soft objects, from fluid-filled flasks to tomatoes.

Reviews summary
4 Traveller reviews from Holiday Watchdog
Great huts, friendly staff, a relaxing place to stay.
"We stayed at Cuba Patnem for Christmas 2008. We had booked the hut in advance over the internet as we'd heard that accommodation was going to be hard to find over Christmas and New Year. We had to leave a 50% deposit to secure our booking which was a bit of a surprise, but I'm happy to say there were no problems at all with this. We were dropped off by the overnight bus at around 5am and as we had nowhere else to go, went directly to Cuba, not really expecting much of a reception but hoping there would be somebody awake and somewhere we could crash. The guy on reception was really helpful, he gave us the keys to a couple of spare huts and allowed us to rest there for a few hours until our hut was ready. This was a reflection of the friendly service we received throughout our stay. Positives: The staff were excellent The huts were clean, big, had electricity and mosquito nets, overhead fan, shower room with wash basin and toilet. Hot & cold water! Towels were provided The beds were comfy (if a bit damp) and had clean shhets & warm fleecy blankets Negatives: Expensive Overall I would recommend this place if you feel the need to book in advance. If I go to Patnem again over Christmas & NY, I probably won't stay at Cuba as it's very expensive at this time of year. There are loads of places to stay along the beach and many seemed to have huts available. (A lot of the places you could book in advance were fully booked but there are quite a few smaller places along the beach as well.)"

OK - but there are better places on the same beach
"This place is ok, has A/C huts and for Rs1,500 ($30) who can complain! However, whilst I didn't stay at them, there were nicer looking places on the same beach - places called Papayas and Home spring to mind. In terms of Patnem, apart from the usual dog poo you find across all Indian beaches, this place was great. I live in Mumbai and so go to Goa a fair amount. It I want a luxury weekend I head to the Hyatt, if I want realxed beach shack I head to the smaller Patnem beach. It's the kind of place where you watch sunset, eat fresh seafood, have a few drinks then head for bed ..... or get an auto to Paloem if you fancy a few more drinks. I would suggest this is a far nicer location that Paloem, which reminds me of Bagga beach. There's an expat guy who does sailing trips from Patnew beach, which are fun and the water is clean and can be like a hot bath."

wonderful food, great location, okay beach huts
"My husband and I spent 3 nights at Cuba and loved every minute of it. The location is near the end of Patnem Beach so you are removed from the main area where people congregate. A few sellers came by but they weren't pushy. There were dogs on the beach but they were pretty docile. We always got a beach chair and were able to leave for lunch and keep our stuff on the chair. The food here was FANTASTIC! The seafood was the least expensive we found on Patnem and it was delicious. The staff was very friendly and went out of their way to make us happy. I highly recommend Home (2 places down) for food too. The huts were okay. Patnem is filled with beach huts. You won't find any permanent hotels on the beach, you'll have to go off the beach if you want an actual hotel room. Our hut was on stilts with the bedroom on top of the bathroom. The room was very basic but clean. We had a bed with mosquito netting and a small table - that's it. We did have a balcony but sat on the beach instead of using it. Our bathroom had hot water and was clean. If you want luxury rooms or a resort, Patnem is not for you. Even though our room was basic, we only used it for sleeping. We really spent all of our time lounging on the beach or sitting in the open air restaurant. We chose an A/C hut (and paid extra for it) and it was well worth it during the March heat. The food and beach made up for the rooms. Don't shy away from Patnem because of the huts. (I usually prefer luxury and I thought it was fine.) We did walk over to Palolem Beach one day. It was crowded and the beach wasn't as wide. There were door to door restaurants and huts. Loud music was playing during the day. We preferred the quiet beach of Patnem over Palolem."

absolutely brilliant
"To be honest i was a little wary at first, this was the first time i had booked accomodation online direct with the owner and was the first time i had stayed in a beach hut, so wasnt really to sure what to expect or if my booking and deposit had even been taken proprely. However all my fears were in vain the huts were stunning, yes they are simple huts however they looked better than any others on the beach & they were cleaner, with whiter linen and a better shower than the ones in the hotel I had booked in North Goa. The beach hut's offered cheap but fantastic food & drinks which we enjoyed more than anywhere else we ate while in Goa, the staff are fantastic and really look after you and make you feel special, even better the bar is chilled out and didnt have the all night parties that some in the area do. The area was fantastic with an unspoilt beach, no sellers, few people and total seclusion and relaxation. we stayed 3 nights at Cuba beach and hardly left, we went to the slightly busier palolem just along the coast but apart from that spent the rest of the time lounging on the beach or lounging in the bar and restaurant. I really cannot praise the huts or the area enough and would highly reccommend to anyone looking for total destress and relaxation and after spending a few days around Calangute and Baga, the contrast was staggering and most welcome. Will definately go back to Goa and definately go back to Cuba beach in Patnem, but will plan to spend much longer next time."

Tecmo announced today that the release of the highly anticipated Ninja Gaiden Sigma playable demo is available now on the Playstation Network.
"The Ninja Gaiden Sigma demo is a great way for Playstation 3 owners to get a sneak peek at the Team NINJA masterpiece," said Yoh Watanabe, Tecmo's Marketing Manager. "For the first time ever, Ninja Gaiden will be playable exclusively on a PlayStation platform and we're amazed at how incredible Sigma looks and feels. This is the must-have demo for the must-have game."
You've got to be sh*tting me. I hate you all!
I was thinking the same thing man, damn you lucky bastards. I gotta get me one soon.
Man we have to find a way to get Deep a PS3!
The guy really deserves a machine!
and I didn't see a thing about NGS...
The region you live in might affect whether or not the download is available. If you don't see it now, it should be on later. But the matter of the fact is that it is here. Rejoice.
the psn store is always updated around 5pm (est)..so lets wait it out
I don't have to pretend to be sick and leave work early :)
Er.... this is an odd story indeed.
"For the first time ever, Ninja Gaiden will be playable exclusively on a PlayStation platform"
^I know he probably means that Sigma is exclusive, but that's kind of a silly statement considering this is a years-old Xbox game.
But the game is a remake, much like what people want from FFVII. The game isn't the same when it is redone and made to look the way it should have been. Just cause the story is the same doesn't meen the game is the same.
I'll...be right back.
OK, I'm back...which obviously means no N.G. demo yet, at least not here in Toronto. :(
(Back to Folding for now...)
someone give me a heads up when it appears please, im in the UK but of course have a US account.
LOL! from 5 bubbles to 4 after THIS comment!!!! funniest thing EVER!!! and a disagreement!!! gee u guyz!
Something to get my interest on the Playstation Store. Being used to the XBL Marketplace, the PS Store has been a disappointment so far. They'll pick it up soon though.
I'd like to hear a verdict about the demo from someone who played the original on Xbox.
*edit* I'm not fortunate enough to afford a Ps3, that's why I'm asking.
Playing it yourself and forming your own conclusion.
People tend to be too easily led like sheep by reviews and other peoples opinions.
Well i never played on the original but ill give an honest opinion like i always do once i download it, but as Violater said, use you own judgement rather than a few who may sway to a certain side ;)
looking forward to this game. I actually have NG Black for my Xbox 360 (BC game) but put it on the shelf just so that I could play Sigma!
Here I just set up a Japan account and got Hot Shots 5. Now I can get NGS!!!! lol Just love those demos ^^
Is it out yet???
983MB. Downloading now.
Not listed at the top page yet. Need to select "MURYOU(free) GAME" folder.
i think sony is doing a great job keeping the store updated. theyre proving to have a pretty good online service in my opinion. good job sony
Post videos? Post an opinion on this who has played it? I'd like to hear some impressions from the PS3 camp. This is the first time I've been jealous of PS3 owners...
the real time shadowing is really awesome!
but ive got some problems with the control. i dont know how to cast magic!
i really enjoy the demo and it is quite long! :)
I just checked it... in Denver, CO and its still not here :( . But the store hasnt been updated yet...
Ahhhh I thought it was going to be awhile. If it dont show up tonight for the US Iam sooooooo setting up a Japaniza account.
im siked. i just bought fear and raiden 3. now ill get a ngs demo after work and i look forward to the eyetoy. with the homebeta sign ups and these great games, im falling in love with my ps3 again. thank you sony
Can't Wait. I'll tell my cousin he has a reason to buy the ps3 now.
980 mb, HOLY CRAP This game is absolutely beautiful in 1080p. Good work, Team Ninja, you just got my pre-ordered.
Whats the point in this news as it says its out and its not as yet..
its out in japan, i made a japanese account just to check. dunno when its comin out here in america but i know as i type im over 50% done downloading the demo now ;p. just make a new User then a new PSN account from japan. it will be a lil confusin but its ok lol.
Hmmmm gamestop is selling collector edition..hmmmmmmmmmmm.. $69.99. I think it's worth it.
The demo is out in Japan. In fact, it was never mentioned if it was coming out in USA, I just hope it will. Does anyone with a Non-Japanese account see it on the site?.
Maybe they're going to update it later today...I'm tired of checking in every hour...
Just create a japanese account and download it. It's easy.
as i wait for my download to finish i have a grin on my face. i beat Ninja gaiden black and loved it. sigma seems to have alot of new things for people who have beaten it already, no more cinematics, just real time cut scenes cuz the graphics look just as good as the cinematics. now when doing Ninpo you can shake the ps3 controller to make the ninpo stronger and cooler. theres way more but im not typin it all lol go play it for ur self
i beat the original ng then ng black must play ng sigma now.
please tell me how to set up a japanese account?
Here is good tutorial http://www.freewebs.com/bug...
man I can't wait just made my japaneza account since we haven't recieved ours yet to impatient,downloading now. this game will dominate(face).
Blown away by the graphics. Oh yeah I created a Jap Account. Follow the link given above. Its much more easier than the one I found. Stilll didnt play it because I had to come back to work. Now I am waiting for Calling All Cars.
DOwnload it if you haven't already!!
Now Sony needs try to get all games comin out for the PS3 on this thing before they are released like they are doin with Sigma. I can't wait till the US Store gets it.
if you want to create a japanese account ... here's a step by step tutorial ...
dont know why you guys are getting excited... i mean its just a demo... its not even full game.........anyway back to C&C demo..er
gotta go
they should be clear about when its coming out and what region its for....because I've been checking an still there is no NGS demo available for ME -WTF?....I'm American and I'm used to being first -I'm waiting.....lol!
This is the ONLY game exclusive (aside from LAIR) that is making me want to waste my money on another console. (I am a PC/MS fanboy)
I am a huge NG fan, having finished both NG and NGB on xbox.
So, after playing this demo:
- same gameplay, same mechanics. Why change a winning formula?
- better graphics! All in HD 1080!
- Very smooth animation.
- Cutscenes are ingame. I did liked the CGI cutscenes in xbox, but this is ingame, and very well realized.
- Finished first level, of course received Master Ninja rank ;)
- it unlocks Hard mode and Mission mode where you can play as Rachel!!!
- Rachel is a complete different play than Ryu. How she wields that hammer, smashes and throws her opponent is absolutely jubilating !!
me heads back to playing NGS :D
It's still not here!!!
They need to update it NOW! I've been wanting this really badly. Not as bad as a DMC4 demo, but still REALLY BAD!
Im downloading now in eau claire wisconsin usa should be out for everyone now.
Out now in USA! right after i finish my japanese account, lol
i downloaded the Japanese one around 12 or so this afternoon, the US one came online about 3pm here in Los Angeles.
i've only played a little bit of it (i have lots of work to do), but it's just as awesome as i remember it, and on a controller that's more comfortable for my hands!
i can't wait for the full retail release, but i know what i'll be playing til the wee hours tonight!
unfortunately for me my Ship is underway and out to see. and though it has internet, it blocks my PSN account. So i cant download NGS or Calling all cars till tomorrow when we pull back into port. I'm So excited because i've never played Ninja Gaiden before. i almost bout an xbox for it but then i heard that Team Ninja was going to do a Ninja gaiden game on PS3.... i was expecting NG2 but the first one. thats Great. I cant wait to download this one and this game will certainly be selling alot of ps3s which is why i can look forward to a Ninja Gaiden 2. Awesome awesome awesome... this and calling all cars. cant wait.
I saw it on PSN US... oh man.. 900mbs... my internet is damn slow now...
but I finally bit the bullet and upgraded to 56K, baby!!! V.92 and all!!!
Say, if I start now, do you think it will finish downloading before the retail release???...well, as long as no one calls on the other line, and breaks my connection that is...
(j/k, j/k!)
...I'm on that sucker ASAP!!!
LOL , you're hilarious at times. A bubble for you...
ok im getting it now. I'll give my impressions once I play it (again)
I'm in Seattle and I have a US account. Downloaded with no problems...I'm about to play it before my Lakers game starts.

TOP dogs Billingham are set to name an unchanged line-up for the trip to Cleckheaton.
The only switch for the North One East pacesetters is on the bench, where prop replacement Callum Cranston returns in place of Rob Hamer.
Billingham lead the table by six points, having beaten Sheffield last week, picking up a try-scoring bonus point in the process, while Cleckheaton are in mid-table.
Third-placed Middlesbrough are in the mix, being just two points behind Wheatley Hills.
Boro seek a win when they host Old Crossleyans, who are third from bottom, at Acklam Park.
However, the visitors have improved lately, and have recorded a couple of impressive wins, so Boro might not have it all their own way.
Boro are unchanged. Scrum-half Peter Wright was hoping to return after a hamstring injury, but is not quite ready.
Stockton return to league action after a cup defeat to Ilkley last week, and resume the task of trying to catch top of the table Darlington.
And Stockton, second in Durham and North One, will be confident of winning at home to an Ashington side in 12th place.
Stockton have already beaten the Northumberland side twice this season, 32-21 in the league, and 31-13 in the National Intermediate Cup.
Coach Craig Lee steps down so Jeremy Good moves forward from full back to the number 10 shirt.
A late decision will be made about the rest of the starting three quarter line as Ritchie Brown has regained match fitness.
The pack could be the same as last week, but there are doubts about prop Simon Brown who has a neck injury, so Stu Barrass stands by.
Guisborough visit Sunderland, who are one place, yet 16 points better off.
Guisborough have no new injuries despite a feisty encounter with Ashington last week, which the referee abandoned because of over aggressive behaviour from the players.
The game will be replayed on March 17. The clubs face an enquiry from the rugby authorities.
However, there is a feeling that the referee's decision was hasty and if he had handed out a couple of cards, the players might have calmed down and the game could have finished.
Guisborough were leading 19-10 and a win would have been handy as they have slipped a little lately and are in lower mid-table.
Acklam, who are enjoying a good season, could climb to fourth place if they win at home to fourth from bottom Ryton.
Redcar, at home to Winlaton Vulcans, make several changes to the young side which was well beaten in their last game, at Barnard Castle.
Brad Stovell a utility back, comes in at centre, Jon Davey plays at prop and veteran Rob Bryce at full back, as Redcar turn to experience against a side one place above them in Durham and North Two.
Bottom club Yarm, still chasing an elusive first win, are at Wallsend, three places better off.
MIDDLESBROUGH (at home to Old Crossleyans, 12.45, 2.15): McNeill, Evans, Bellerby, Featherstone, Bircham, Lee, Richardson, Harland, Horton, Chapman, Barker, Bradford, Dixon, John, Aldus. Reps: Helm, Theakston, Moore.
STOCKTON (home to Ashington, 12.45, 2.15): Phinn, Crozier, Oates, R Brown, Thornton, Slaughter, Good, Green, Powell, Wootten, W Brown, Douglas, Skirving, S Brown, Muirhead, Conway. Reps: Barrass, Doherty.
REDCAR (home to Winlaton Vulcans): Leat, Wills, Davey, Bryce, Johnson, Reed, Dyball, Little, Condell, Dixon, Templeman, McMahon, Stovell, Addison, Bryce. Reps: O'Driscoll, Challinor, Barker.

I was in love and decided that I needed to try out something like this. I went to the store and bought gray shimmery tissue paper and went to find a cute punchout and was sadly dissapointed that Wal-Mart did not carry them. If I were really dedicated I would have gone to a craft store, but it was late and I am an instant happiness kind of girl. I racked my brain for an alternative and came up with this...
White Garage Sale Pricing Stickers! Wasn't sure how it would turn out, but since it was cheap I figured it was worth a try.
Directions for creating a DIY Polka Dotted Luminary
1. Buy Avery 1/4" Round All-Purpose Labels in white (or the color of your choosing)
2. Buy a clear, round, glass vase. I got mine from Wal-Mart for $2.99, but I think they sell them at Dollar Tree for a buck.
3. Start placing the stickers in rings around the vase. I would start from the top and work your way to the bottom, that way if you need to you can fold any extra sticker under the vase. I kind of just eyeballed the sticker placement and was happy with how it turned out.
4. Keep placing more stickers... seems like it will take forever, but really took about a 30 minute tv show's worth of time. (Your dog will get really bored with you by this point.)
5. Stand back and admire the finished product!
Pretty cute if I do say so myself. I think it looks very modern and I would not think those were cheap little stickers at all! Thinking about using them for possible wedding centerpieces with yellow roses inside.
