If you are building a new home or remodeling chances are you are going to need a set of stairs. In this article we will discuss the benefits of metal stairs verse wood. Read this!
If you're constructing a new house or remodeling then odds are you will require a pair of stairs. In that case, then have you ever thought about using metal stairs rather than wood? Many contemporary and modern homes nowadays are beginning to utilize metal stairs rather than wood. Metal stairs have three chief advantages to the homeowner potency, quietness and flexibility.
Metal stairs are a lot more superior than timber staircases! Many staircases made from wood utilize a douglas fir 2×10 sidewall or stringer that's notched and the genuine strength is similar to a 2×6 sitting . This more than sufficient for most houses but in contrast to alloy it's inferior. This makes them feel strong and secure since they're.
Benefits of Metal Stairs Vs Wood
If it comes to timber staircases sound is a problem particularly in the event that you reside in a dry climate. In the summer they shrink in the very low humidity and they create a good deal of noise when you walk.
Only getting a glass of milk can wake up other men and women. This is inevitable with timber stairs because the usage shims and wedges to secure the stair treads that extend and contract. In the summertime they are sometimes quite but are extremely creaky through winter.
Metal stairs are extremely flexible and may come in many different finishes and accent materials such as wood steps and handrail caps. The growing trend nowadays is to use a metallic center for your staircase and cap off them with wood, glass or stone. This produces a gorgeous modern contemporary look which can be custom tailored for any house design. Not only can they look fantastic their potency is superior to timber staircases.
For instance a glass stair tread that's 1.5 inches believe will encourage 1800 pounds! When a stairs utilizes metal since the supporting structure it also makes it possible for the contractor or designer to decide on any accent or blend of colors they might desire. For instance a house can utilize timber stair treads then including a marble handrail cap to get an incredibly customised look and texture that isn't just stunning but exceptionally functional.
The biggest drawback to incorporating metal stairs for you house is price! They're more suited to high end houses which have a generous funding. Pricing can quickly be 4 times the sum of a very low end wood stairs.

ROH Road to G1 Supercard: Night 1
ROH Road to G1 Supercard: Night 1
By Big Red Machine
From January 24, 2019
MARTY SCURLL vs. RHETT TITUS - 6.5/10
A fine opener. I like serious Rhett. Can we maybe extent that to his out of the ring character as well? Or at least let him go back to being arrogant womanizing heel Rhett Titus who has comedic elements to him but doesn't come off as a complete and total joke, as opposed to this dork lugging around a trophy from a fake bodybuilding tournament? It's a completely unnecessary addition that turns Rhett into a total joke, and turning Rhett into a joke is counterproductive if you're going to stick in spots where he is getting a clean advantage on a guy like Marty Scurll.
Alex Coughlin & Karl Fredericks vs. LifeBlood (Juice Robinson & David Finlay Jr.) - 5.75/10
Tenille Dashwood came out with LifeBlood and did guest commentary for this match. Speaking of commentary I REALLY hate it when commentators bring up (or even allude to) the fact that NJPW young-boys aren't allowed to do non-basic moves. It makes the match feel inherent unfair. You'd never see an MMA fight where one side isn't allowed to use armbars, so why are seeing a professional wrestling match where basically that same thing is happening. I'd really rather a commentator just not bring it up at all (it's not like it's something a viewer needs to know to understand the match)... or at least find a kayfabe way to spin it, like claiming that these guys haven't learned such complicated moves yet.
Other things I'd prefer that commentators not do include telling me that C.J. Parker, NXT undercard heel before NXT got super-hot, had "a major presence in a major organization," which might actually be the farthest stretch of the truth anyone (or at least anyone who we are not supposed to think is lying) has made in ROH since Kevin Kelly told us that Mike Mondo had "main evented" in WWE for "a number of years." Actually, now that I think about it, this statement is even more of a stretch than that because Kevin's claim about Mondo was actually technically true, as one fifteenth technically is a number, even though it's not a whole one.
I understand what Ian was trying to say here, but I think a much better way to phrase it would be to say something like Juice "left a steady paycheck from a major organization because he felt that he wasn't being given an opportunity to make it to the top" and thus Juice bravely risked everything for his dream etc. by joining New Japan. It gets the same message across, but it's more true and doesn't hurt your credibility in the eyes of those of us who saw C.J. Parker in NXT.
The reason Tenille was on commentary was to talk about LifeBlood. She and the commentators used a lot of very general statements and very few concrete examples of the wrongs LifeBlood feels they are here to correct. As was noted here the segment where they debut has not aired on TV yet so I haven't seen it, but I did read the article on the website, and from that I assumed that they were doing the sort of general "Honor" (the capital H is not a typo) thing; they're for fair play and not cheating and great competition, etc. I was thus a little thrown off when a specific was finally given in the form of Tenille condemning the NJPW young-boys for one of them running in to break up a pin. Is that against the rules? Yes. But it's something we see all the time and no one ever really has a problem with it. I was then doubly thrown off when Juice decked one of the young-boys when he was standing on the apron, which I'd think is just as much of a violation of the rules as running in to make the save (you're not supposed to attack the illegal wrestler). Are LifeBlood perhaps extremists and/or slightly hypocritical and are actually heels? We'll have to wait and see. That would certainly be a way to subvert expectations, though (and I can't help but notice that other than Tenille, all of them are outsiders/newcomers to ROH, and Tenille's "it's all about me" gimmick just screams "HEEL!" anyway, so I don't think it's at all out of the realm of possibility).
As for the actual wrestling match, it was decent for the time it got. Just like their Tokyo counterparts, NJPW's Los Angeles dojo students are certainly fundamentally sound, and Finlay & Juice were certainly generous with the offense they gave them.
ROH TV Champion Jeff Cobb vs. Clark Connors - squash
Katsuyori Shibata (who is now the head trainer at NJPW's LA dojo) made an appearance in front of the crowd before the match. He left, then Jeff Cobb proceeded to obliterate his student.
DALTON CASTLE & THE BOYS vs. SHANE TAYLOR & THE BRISCOES - 4.75/10
Beer City Bruiser provided guest commentary for this match. His character is painfully one-note, and I'm pretty much done with having any interest in him. Meanwhile, in the ring, stuff happened. The Boys were babyfaces in peril, Dalton got eh hot tag and ran wild on the heels. He eventually hit Jay with the Bang-a-rang and the referee counted "ONE! TWO!" and then Shane Taylor pulled the referee out of the ring.
Then something amazing happened. Referee Paul Turner scolded Taylor, and then rather than getting back in the ring, Turner ran over to where the timekeeper could see him and indicated that Taylor and the Briscoes had been disqualified. I popped SOOOOO huge for this! Finally someone is actually enforcing the rules! LOGIC is being prioritized over "that's be a cool false finish, wouldn't it?" Much to my delight, things proceeded to get even better in the...
- Loved it! Shane Taylor was upset about getting disqualified, so he shoved referee Paul Turner down. Ian Riccaboni exclaimed that would need to be fined or suspended for this. EXCELLENT!
The heels all attacked the babyfaces, but then Juice & Finlay (or "Fin-Juice" as they are apparently being called) ran in and made the save. Juice then grabbed a mic and scolded Taylor for his lack of honor, then cut a promo promising a lot of honorable action in tonight's main event in which his LifeBlood buddies Mark Haskins & Tracy Williams would take on Jonathan Gresham and ROH World Champion Jay Lethal. I CAN'T WAIT FOR THAT MATCH! They then offered Dalton Castle and handshake and he accepted.
MADISON RAYNE vs. HOLIDEAD (w/Thunder Rosa)- 4.75/10
The story was Madison overcoming Thunder Rosa's interference and getting the win. Twisted Sisters attacked Madison after the match and Sumie Sakai came out to chase the heels off with a steel chair.
- Good. He cut a short little promo in which he first put Rocky over as the only man other than himself to have held titles in ROH, NJPW, and CMLL, and then got his "Real ROH World Title" angle, claiming that sets Rocky apart from him is that unlike Rocky, he has held a world title. He offers to put his title on the line against Rocky and Rocky accepts, to their previously-scheduled match is now a...
Matt Taven(c) vs. Rocky Romero - 6.75/10
If Marseglia is under the f*cking ring and can't see Taven, how did he know that releasing the balloons would help Taven in any way? Also, the referee now knows that Marseglia is underneath the ring and that he has already tried to influence the outcome, why does he not order him ejected from ringside (using the microphone to make sure Marseglia knows)?
Anyway, aside from that stupid spot these guys had a very good match, which Taven won. Then, after the match, the rest of The Kingdom came out from backstage... so who lets f*cking balloons go? This seems like something that should be investigated immediately, no? There is an unauthorized person hiding under the ring and trying to help The Kingdom win.
They approach the ring and Marseglia PULLS OUT AN AXE! Taven and O'Ryan hold the fallen Rocky Romero in place while Marseglia brandishes said axe in a threatening manner and points towards Rocky. THEY'RE GOING TO MURDER ROCKY ROMERO! SOMEBODY SAVE HIM!
That's when Brody King's music hits and Brody comes out... and just stands there on the ramp as Ian Riccaboni, with nothing more than a shrug in his voice, says "the Kingdom was supposed to compete next anyway, so let's send it to Bobby Cruise for the introductions." WHAT? DOESN'T ANYONE CARE ABOUT ROCKY ROMERO'S LIFE?! At the very least you'd think ROH would want to prevent the inevitable diplomatic incident with New Japan that would result from ONE OF THEIR WRESTLERS MURDERING ONE OF NEW JAPAN'S WRESTLERS IN THE MIDDLE OF AN ROH RING.
I'm sorry. I just... don't understand what the point of this was. Why THREATEN A MURDER if no one is going to react to it like someone is threatening a murder?! And no, "He's Vinny Marseglia: The Horror King,'" is not a valid explanation because 1) it still doesn't excuse the obvious kayfabe issue that ignoring a THREAT OF MURDER creates, and 2) we know he's not actually going to hit anyone with a F*CKING AXE, so there is no element of horror here. Yes, pro wrestling is a fiction, but the fact that is performed as theater rather than as a motion picture- and specifically one where the performers do their best to ensure that the action itself looks as realistic as possible (by which I mean they're not doing what you'd see in a theater like stage slaps or stabbing people under the armpit- they're doing the sort of stuff you'd see from the Jackie Chan Stunt Team when they put together a fight scene). Marseglia's axe isn't gimmicked, and I know this because he's never actually hit anyone with it. If it was gimmick then he'd be swinging it around and he'd actually use it as a weapon instead of just carry it around and maybe occasionally hit people with the handle (which looks silly when he does it because you don't bring a sword to a fight just to try to hit people in the forehead with the hilt). So we know it's gimmicked, which means we know he's never going to use it, so there is no real threat and thus we feel no horror.
Stuff like this with Marseglia's axe gains nothing and only creates logic issues, so why does ROH keep doing it? It's hurting the shows and bring no benefit.
Anyway, PCO also came out, then Marty Scurll came out with his umbrella and chased Matt Taven away, so we moved on to...
Villain Enterprises (Brody King & PCO) vs. The Kingdom (T.K. O'Ryan & Vinny Marseglia) - 6.5/10
The match was decent. There was a double-heat. Marseglia tried to put Brody through a table right in front of the referee. He missed his big senton bomb off the top rope when Brody rolled out of the way and Vinny went through the table. Idiot. Villain Enterprises then both hit their finishers on O'Ryan and pinned him.
SILAS YOUNG vs. BANDIDO - 7.75/10
They had a GREAT match which Bandido won. He offered Silas a handshake after the match which Silas accepted... but then kicked Bandido right in the knee, injuring him. ROH did a good job of making this injury angle feel important, but it would have been nice if it was more than just one kick that caused such damage to Bandido's knee.
Jay Lethal & Jonathan Gresham vs. LifeBlood (Tracy Williams & Mark Haskins) - 8.25/10
Kenny King joined Colt and Ian on commentary for the main event. Colt and Willie Mack face off against Kenny King and a mystery partner in the first round of Tag Wars tomorrow night. Ian tried to get him to tell us who his mystery partner will be, but Kenny insisted on keeping it a mystery.
The match was wrestled completely cleanly, although unlike in their earlier match, LifeBlood had no problem whatsoever with more than one guy on a team being in the ring at the same time. LifeBlood worked over Lethal's arm while Lethal & Gresham worked over Tracy's knee. An awesome main event.
- Decent. The babyfaces were all friendly with each other. Silas Young and Shane Taylor showed up on the ramp and took everyone's attention, allowing the Briscoes to slip out of the crowd and attack the babyfaces. They focused their attack on LifeBlood, who these guys face in an eight-man tag tomorrow night. They threw Tracy Williams' shoulder into the post (the one he wears a brace on), and we were also told that Bandido has been taken to a local medical facility to get evaluated so he can't help his comrades here. Finlay and Juice came out to try to make the save but they got beaten down as well. On commentary, Colt Cabana kept saying that he felt like he should go help but he never did, even after the fans were all chanting for him. Not cool, Colt.
Final Thoughts
This was a solid show from ROH. LifeBlood are certainly making me happy, and it definitely feels like there is a new direction now that Bullet Club is gone. The freshness of the roster makes it feel like we've got a lot of exciting match-ups ahead of us. Now if only Vinny Marseglia would go away, too.

Michael Phelps captured his 23rd and final Olympic gold medal on Saturday as the United States sealed a week of dominance in the pool by winning the men's and women's medley relays.
Denmark's Pernille Blume beat a field of world and Olympic champions to take gold in the women's 50 freestyle and Italy's Gregorio Paltrinieri won the men's 1,500 freestyle after dominating almost from the start.
But it was Phelps who stole the show yet again when he sprang from the block to swim the butterfly leg of the 4x100 medley relay, recapturing the lead from Britain and setting up yet another US victory, after Ryan Murphy had led off by breaking the world backstroke record.
Elaine Thompson inherited the mantle of Olympic 100 metres champion from fellow Jamaican Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce on Saturday but Mo Farah simply refused to relinquish his 10,000m crown as the Briton recovered from a fall to retain his title.
Check out the gold medallists on Day 8 of the Rio Olympics:
Puig secures Puerto Rico's first gold medal
Monica Puig scored the upset of her career and delivered Puerto Rico its first Olympics gold medal on Saturday, overpowering Germany's Angelique Kerber to win the women's singles tennis competition.
Puig, cheered on by fans in Rio de Janeiro who waved Puerto Rican flags and shouted "Si, se puede" ("Yes, you can") throughout her hard-fought three-set victory, beat the Australian Open champion 6-4, 4-6, 6-1.
With the remarkable victory, Puig reached several milestones in one fell swoop. She is the first gold medallist for Puerto Rico, the Caribbean island and US territory that fields its own Olympic team at each Games.
She also became the first woman to win a medal representing Puerto Rico, whose male athletes had captured eight medals at past games, mostly in boxing.
US wins men's medley relay, golden send-off for Phelps
The United States won the men's 4x100 meters medley relay on Saturday after Ryan Murphy had given them a world record start that propelled Michael Phelps to a 23rd gold medal in his final Olympic race.
Britain took the silver medal and Australia bronze.
Phelps, who swam the third butterfly leg, ends the most successful Olympic career of all time with 23 golds, three silver and two bronze.
Murphy broke the world record for the 100 backstroke in the leadoff, clocking 51.85 seconds to eclipse the 51.94 that compatriot Aaron Peirsol swam in 2009.
Britain's Olympic champion Adam Peaty then swam the breaststroke leg in a scorching 56.59 seconds to move his team up from sixth to first place, with Cody Miller touching second for the U.S. at half-way.
A huge roar went up when Phelps hit the water for the butterfly and then caught and overhauled Britain's James Guy to hand a 0.41 second cushion to Nathan Adrian.
The Americans finished in three minutes, 27.95 seconds, an Olympic record, to win by 1.29 seconds.
Farah roars to another 10,000m title
Britain's Mo Farah shrugged off an early fall to cement his place in the pantheon of distance greats by retaining his Olympic 10,000 metres title with a blistering final lap on Saturday.
Farah ran a superb tactical race before obliterating the opposition in the final stretch to became the first British runner to win three Olympic titles. He is now the favourite to add a fourth in the 5,000m next week.
Should the 33-year-old manage it he would emulate Finnish great Lasse Viren, currently the only man to complete the distance "double double", by retaining the Olympic 5,000 and 10,000m titles.
He has already achieved the feat in the world championships, with three in a row in the 5,000m and two over 10,000m.
Jamaica's Thompson wins women's 100m gold
Elaine Thompson of Jamaica won the women's 100 meters sprint in a time of 10.71 seconds. Tori Bowie of the United States finished second to take silver, while Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce of Jamaica won bronze.
The 24-year-old was second slowest out of the blocks but powered away from the field over the last 50 meters to claim her first major individual title in 10.71 seconds, one hundredth of a second outside her personal best.
Manuel anchors medley team to 1,000th US gold
Simone Manuel anchored the US women's 4x100 meters medley relay team to the 1,000th gold medal in her country's summer Olympic history on Saturday, and the second of her career.
Australia won the silver, with Cate Campbell touching out just 0.01 ahead of bronze medalists Denmark.
The United States were the defending champions and Manuel's swim came about 40 minutes after she won silver in the 50 freestyle, an event she called a 'work in progress'.
Had she won that, and she missed out by just 0.02, the landmark gold would have been hers alone but she was happy that was not the case.
American Henderson snatches long jump gold
Jeff Henderson of the United States won gold in the men's long jump on Saturday, leaping 8.38 meters to snatch the title in the last round.
His win, edging out South Africa's Luvo Manyonga in the last round of the competition, gives the United States its 22nd long jump gold medal.
"It feels good to be in that category, to win that many medals. It feels surreal right now," Henderson told reporters at a news conference alongside Manyonga and dethroned London 2012 champion Greg Rutherford of Britain who took bronze.
Swimming: Italy's Paltrinieri wins 1,500m freestyle
Gregorio Paltrinieri of Italy won the Olympic gold medal in the 1,500 meters freestyle on Saturday after dominating throughout the race with a relentless display of technique and endurance in the longest event in the pool.
Connor Jaeger of the United States took the silver, and Italy's Gabriele Detti won bronze after overhauling Jordan Wilimovsky of the US in the closing stages. But the winner never seemed in doubt after world champion Paltrinieri took the lead at 150 meters and wore down the rest of the field.
Having been on track through most of the race to beat the world record, he eased off slightly to clock 14 minutes, 34.57 seconds, 3.55 seconds outside the mark of 14:31.02 set by Chinese swimmer Sun Yang in London in 2012.
The winning margin was 4.91 seconds.
Belarussian Hancharou wins men's Trampoline gold
Belarussia's Uladzislau Hancharou upstaged world champion Gao Lei and 2012 Olympic gold medallist Dong Dong to soar to victory in trampoline gymnastics at the Rio Games on Saturday.
Hancharou won Belarus' second gold of these Games with a score of 61.745.
Dong, who was bidding to become the first man to win back-to-back trampoline Olympic golds, settled for silver with 60.535 while Gao won bronze.
Rossetti racks up third shooting gold for Italy
Young Italian Gabriele Rossetti gave his country its third gold medal in Olympic shooting with a perfect score in the men's skeet event on Saturday.
The compact 21-year-old had perfect 16s in the semi-final and final, defeating 26-year-old Marcus Svensson of Sweden by just one shot.
Crowd favorite Abdullah Al-Rashidi, a Kuwaiti competing under the Olympic flag won the bronze, his first medal in six Olympic Games.
German Reitz wins men's 25m rapid-fire pistol gold
Germany clinched its third Olympic shooting title in as many days on Saturday as police officer Christian Reitz won the gold medal in the 25 meter rapid fire pistol event.
Upon winning his first gold in three Olympics, the 29-year-old Reitz walked across the range to hug fellow officer and training partner Jean Quiquampoix of France, who won the silver after a thrilling shoot-off with bronze medalist Li Yuehong of China.
In the eight rounds of five shots in quick succession, the world-record holding Reitz proved to be a reliably steady shot, never missing more than one target in each round. His win reinforces Germany's dominance in rapid-fire shooting, with five golds and nine medals, more than any other country.
German Harting takes men's discus gold
German Christoph Harting snatched victory with his last throw, four years after his brother Robert took the title in London.
Harting found 68.37 meters and edged ahead of silver medallist Piotr Malachowski of Poland (67.55m) and countryman Daniel Jasinski (67.05m), who won bronze.
Rowing: Men's single sculls
At the Olympic rowing regatta on Saturday, Mahe Drysdale of New Zealand and Croatia's Damir Martin crossed the line at the same time as Martin appeared pull past the defending champion.
After moments of confusion, with even the two rowers asking each other who had won, the gold was awarded to Mahe in a photo-finish. Martin generously applauded him.
The Czech Republic's Ond?ej Synek won bronze.
In the women's single sculls, the day's fourth final, favorite Kimberley Brennan of Australia comfortably won the gold, leading from the start to add the gold to the bronze she claimed in London.
Gevvie Stone of the USA won silver while Duan Jingli of China took home the bronze medal.
In the women's coxed eight, US women's eight team crossed the finish line, winning the United States' only gold in the regatta.
It was a second Olympic gold for Meghan Musnicki and Elle Logan, the only two members of the crew who competed in the London 2012 Games.
The British team came good in the last stretch to claim silver and Romania made a late surge to take bronze.
The grand finale of the regatta, the men's eight,Britain beat favourites Germany. They led all the way, even though the Germans closed the gap toward the end. The Netherlands took bronze.
Britain beat US to cycling gold in women's team pursuit
Britain crushed their American rivals to win the women's track cycling pursuit title in another world record time as the two fastest teams locked horns for gold at the Olympics on Saturday with the expected close battle ending in a romp.
The quartet of Laura Trott, Katie Archibald, Elinor Barker and Joanna Rowsell-Shand cranked up the pace to devastating effect, winning in 4:10.236 -- nearly two seconds quicker than the world record they set in the heats.
Sarah Hammer's US team had thrown down the gauntlet with a world record of their own in the morning heats only to see Britain respond almost immediately.
And they were no match for the British in the final as the U.S. wait for a gold in Olympic women's track cycling goes on.
Britain won by just over two seconds to match the feat of the Bradley Wiggins-inspired men's team who beat Australia to win gold on Friday, also in a world record time
Canada secured only its second Olympic medal in women's track cycling, beating New Zealand for bronze.
Cycling: Flying Dutchwoman Ligtlee wins keirin gold
Dutch rider Elis Ligtlee won gold in the track cycling women's keirin on Saturday, edging out Britain's Rebecca James.
Australian Anna Meares took the bronze while world champion Kristina Voegel of Germany was out of the medals.
Meares, an 11-times world champion, has now won a medal in four consecutive Olympics.
Late results on Day 7...
Schooling denies Phelps a 23rd
Joseph Schooling won the men's 100 metres butterfly final on Friday to secure Singapore's first Olympic gold medal and deny Michael Phelps a 23rd in the last individual race of the American's extraordinary career.
Phelps, the defending champion and world record holder who is heading into retirement -- again -- after Rio, finished second in a three-way dead heat with two of his greatest rivals -- South Africa's Chad Le Clos and Hungary's Laszlo Cseh.
Astonishingly, all three touched out in 51.14 seconds, behind Schooling's Olympic record 50.39 in the second dead-heat in a final in two days.
Ledecky smashes 800m record to claim freestyle treble
Katie Ledecky of the United States finally succumbed to her emotions on the podium after destroying the field in the 800 metres freestyle on Friday and smashing her own world record to complete a rare Olympic swimming treble.
Ledecky led from the start and inexorably stretched out the gap over her opponents to finish in eight minutes, 4.79 seconds, beating her previous mark of 8:06.68 set in Austin, Texas in January.
Britain's Jazz Carlin won her second silver medal in 8:16.17, and Boglarka Kapas of Hungary took the bronze.
Ledecky, defending Olympic champion at the distance, added to her golds earlier in the week in the 200 and 400 freestyle and the 4x200 freestyle relay, plus a silver in the 4x100 relay.
The only previous woman to win the 200, 400 and 800 freestyle at the same Games was American Debbie Meyer in 1968.
DiRado bows out with backstroke gold
Maya DiRado of the United States won the women's 200 metres backstroke in her final race before quitting swimming on Friday, coming from behind to deny Katinka Hosszu a fourth gold medal at the Rio Olympics.
The American reeled in the 'Iron Lady' from Hungary in the last 50 metres, the pair swimming neck and neck in adjacent lanes before DiRado touched first to win by six-hundredths of a second.
Canada's Hilary Caldwell won bronze.
Ervin wins gold 16 years after his first
Anthony Ervin of the United States reclaimed the mantle of fastest man in the water on Friday by taking the Olympic 50 metres freestyle gold medal 16 years after he first won it, and by the slimmest of margins.
France's Florent Manaudou, the defending champion, finished second and just 0.01 seconds behind the 35-year-old veteran, who won in 21.40 seconds in a splash and dash down the pool.
Nathan Adrian of the United States took the bronze in the shortest and fastest race on the programme. He also finished third in the 100 freestyle on Wednesday.
Carter denies Adams to win gold in shot put
Michelle Carter produced the throw of her life with her last attempt to deprive New Zealander Valerie Adams a piece of Olympic history on Friday as the American won the women's shot put to close out a memorable first day of athletics in Rio.
Carter heaved an American record 20.63 metres to snatch gold from Adams, who had been seeking to become the first woman to win three straight Olympic titles in an individual athletics event. She took silver with 20.42m.
Spain's Nadal and Lopez win gold in men's doubles
Rafael Nadal and Marc Lopez of Spain won the Olympic men's doubles tennis title on Friday, beating Romania's Florin Mergea and Horia Tecau to secure their country's third gold medal of the Rio Games.
Nadal and Lopez defeated the Romanians 6-2, 3-6, 6-4 while American duo Steve Johnson and Jack Sock beat Canada's Daniel Nestor and Vasek Pospisil 6-2, 6-4 to clinch bronze.

I wanted to share my exciting weekend with you at the American Association of Sexuality Educators Counselor and Therapists sexcon conference. At this conference were some of the leading sex therapists, medical doctors, sex counsels and educators in the nation giving lectures on their new books, studies and finding into human sexuality, mating, dating and marriage.
One of the lectures that I really enjoyed was by Dr. Stella Resnick and it was about erotic sex play in marriage and the importance of how as people we often times forget that part of play, is also sex play. She talked in detail about the hormones and chemicals that are released in the brain when we can add the fun and joy of play into sex, and how it affects the nervous system.
One of the things that married couples often forget today is to be playful with each other sexually and how this can get the arousal started in the marriage again and then the desires will follow. She touched upon kissing and how wet kissing and making out with your spouse outside of the bed room actually will stimulate the hormones in the body and that saliva has much sex producing properties when exchanged between lovers.
She touched on erotic play as well; opening up to erotic play with your spouse and playing out your sexual fantasies together and how different chemicals are released in the brain as well. As a marriage and sex counselor myself I often talk about erotic play with married couples suggesting that each couple have their own sexual tool box to turn to and add to throughout the marriage. Many studies suggest that married couples that are the happiest together have the love, the friendship, and also a fun and healthy erotic sex life.

We Just Achieved a Huge Goal in Information Security Certification
Bear with me on this. I am going to toot the Hillard Heintze horn. But I also have a very positive message for anyone who may have a stake in ensuring that their information security is and remains a paramount priority.
Last week – after many months undergoing pre-assessment reviews, assessment preparation, and intensive assessment audit itself – we were notified that Hillard Heintze has earned ISO/IEC 27001:2013 information security certification as established by the International Organization for Standardization and the International Electrotechnical Commission and awarded by the BSI Group, the independent and accredited national standards body of the United Kingdom.
Lisa DuBrock, the managing partner of Radian Compliance, the company that audited us, put it this way: "According to the most recent ISO survey as of the end of 2015, only 1,247 companies in the USA had achieved ISO/IEC 27001:2013. Hillard Heintze, to our knowledge, is one of the first, if not the first, security professional services company to obtain this certification."
That's great news for us and for our clients – for several reasons.
Corporate Data is the Currency of Business
All organizations, to varying degrees, invest in data protection. They may call it information technology. Or cyber security. Or information security. Whatever they choose to name it, companies spend significant financial resources toward technology and services, often with minimal measurement of success. This makes it difficult for senior leaders to determine whether the investments made will mitigate the risks, threats and vulnerabilities associated with protecting private information.
The recent WannaCry ransomware attack, which surfaced on May 12 and, to date, has crippled an estimated 300,000 systems, is just one example of the hundreds of thousands of cyberattacks that occur every day and threaten company data. Organizations – and their clients – expect at least some base level of protection when it comes to their information. But the shifting landscape of cyber and insider threats requires continuous collaboration with peers and vendor partners, as well as vital expert insights, to mitigate these potentially devastating threats.
Protecting Our Data at Hillard Heintze
We invest extensively in technology and staff to protect our data. So a number of key questions are really important to us. Like these:
- Technology: Have we invested enough or even in the right technology?
- Controls: Do we have the proper procedures and controls in place to ensure our information is protected?
- Maturity: How do we measure up, in terms of information security, against some of the toughest and most sophisticated information security standards?
- Validation: Rather than self-assessing, how would our information security practices be viewed by truly objective, independent third-party information security auditors and examiners?
Setting Our Sights on Compliance with ISO/IEC 27001:2013
The International Organization for Standardization, or ISO, has developed a series of "world-class specifications for products, services and systems, to ensure quality, safety and efficiency." One of the most crucial ISO standards, known as ISO/IEC 27001:2013, specifies the requirements for "establishing, implementing, maintaining and continually improving an information security management system within the context of the organization," along with "requirements for the assessment and treatment of information security risks tailored to the needs of the organization." In other words, this standard is designed to ensure the highest level of information security management integrity.
We had always been aware of this standard. Earlier this year, we set our sights on achieving it.
More Than a Decade of Investment in Information Security
Since Hillard Heintze's inception in 2004, we have focused acutely on building our ISMS program. I don't want to go into detail here, but over the last few years, our proactive approach to information security has helped us prevent or avoid a number of very high-profile information security events – including WannaCry and much more serious ones, for that matter, that proved highly destructive to many other organizations. That track record of success has validated our investments in this critical area and further encouraged us to improve our protections. In 2012, for example, the firm began measuring its information security activities against the ISO27001:2005 standard and achieved compliance with the standard. But as information practices change, so have the standards. So we have kept raising our sights.
Pick the Right Partner: They May be Crucial to Your Certification
Perhaps my strongest recommendation for any firm seeking the same results we achieved with respect to ISO/IEC 27001:2013 or any other compliance or certification initiative is make sure you pick the right partner. Before we launched ourselves into this initiative, we did our homework in this regard and selected a very well respected firm: Radian Compliance. Their partnership and guidance proved tremendously important as they have walked this certification path over and over with many other organizations and were exceptionally adept at pointing out potential gaps and weaknesses and pointing our efforts in the right direction.
Certification Achieved!
We are delighted to have received our certification. I should note that this standard was extensively revised in 2013 to bring even more rigor to the requirements, so we are doubly pleased with the news.
Of course, there is much work ahead. Unlike other types of certifications, this is not a "snapshot in time"; instead, it's a commitment to continue to advance information security quality, reliability and continual improvement. Our celebration window is short. It's time to jump back into improving our processes as well as preparing for recertification next year.
Feel free to contact me if you are pursuing an ISO certification of your own or if you are interested in improving the level of info security for your systems. I'd be more than happy to give you some insights into our process. I can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com or at 312.229.9815.

Replace Help Search
Xero has a TERRIBLE help search. If you search for several key words, it gives you every page that has ANY of them. This always wastes time. It often makes it difficult to impossible to find the help you need, resulting in many extra Community posts and support emails. Changing this should be a top priority. Until then, add site:Xero.com to a Google search, instead of using the terrible Xero help search.
1 Replies Only show the Best and Official Replies
Fair comment - now that there's so much content in Help Center and the Community and growing every day we need to take another look at the search. FYI before we wrote our own search we did use Google Site Search but it had problems deciphering the 5 different versions of the content that exists behind the scenes (to make sure different phrases and screenshots are used in different regions) so the overload and duplication returned wasn't ideal.

Recipe: Parsnip Risotto
Posted by De under Uncategorized
No Comments
I pulled the original recipe out of Fine Cooking 102, Dec 2009/Jan 2010.
I think I first tried a parsnip last year. I made a chicken pot pie with it, carefully concealing it as a humble potato.*
Who am I kidding? It's not like parsnips are exotic. Unless you've never had one. And then you're staring at it like it's a carrot that's been attacked by Bunnicula. AUUUUUUGGGGHHH! Where did all the carrot juice go?!?
Parsnips, the albino carrot. Elric carrots.
But I got all romantic over that parsnip in the chicken pot pie. The creaminess! The sweetness! The not-quite-babyfood mushiness! I realize I'm not winning any converts here, but why should I hide the truth?
Per the Fine Cooking instructions, I peeled the parsnip and then cored it, that is, cut out most of the core, because, hypothetically, it's too woody to eat. (You do this by cutting the parsnip in quarters, then running a paring knife down the tan line between the core and the whatever else parship is, the flesh.) However, in retrospect, the core wasn't all that woody and I could have left it well enough alone AND THEN I WOULD HAVE HAD MORE PARSNIP!
This turned out great. I was having a right shit of a day, and this was the A#1 comfort food that I could have come up with. Perfect.
Also, I made it with sushi rice, because a have about five pounds of the stuff. I eat a lot of it in the springtime with a mock-crab sushi bowl, which isn't as good in the winter. Too cold. So! Instead of spending money on arborio, head over to your local asian market and get some sushi rice; it's probably cheaper.
My version, now that I check the magazine, has 1/4 cup less oil. Take that, Bainbridge scholars!
Parsnip Risotto
1 large parsnip, peeled, cored (if you think it necessary), and diced into 1/4-inch chunks (2 would have been better, right?)
A few slices of some kind of pork product (prosciutto, ham, bacon, pancetta), diced
A few sprigs of fresh sage, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 medium yellow onion, diced small
2 c arborio (or sushi!) rice
6 c chicken broth
Parmesan or other hard cheese
Salt and freshly-ground pepper
Heat the broth to a simmer while covered. Heat a small pot of salted water to a boil and add the parsnips. Boil until the parsnips are tender but not mashed-potato mushy. Drain and put on a paper towel to dry.
Saute ham until crisp. If necessary, add butter, then saute the garlic, sage, and parsnips until the parsnips are a little brown. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Set aside.
In another pan, saute the onion in a couple of tablespoons of butter until translucent, then add the rice. Add 1/2 c of hot chicken broth at a time to the rice. Stir and cook until the liquid is almost absorbed, then add more. If your rice is aging (that is, drying out), you may need more fluid. As it looks like you're getting to the end of your broth supply, add more broth or water to the pan heating up the broth. Don't add cold broth or water directly to your risotto, I haven't figured out why yet, but it isn't good and leads to al dente risotto, which is the opposite of what you want. Anyway, continue adding broth and stirring until the rice is as mushy as the rice in rice pudding. Don't stop before then; it'll only lead to heartache.
It took me 25 minutes to soften up that rice, and about another two cups of hot water. But it's over a year old, and I live at a high elevation, which affects things.
When your rice is sufficiently mushy, add the parsnip mix and as much grated Parmesan as you can get away with. So much for one-upping the Fine Cooking recipe.
*From my family or from myself? Who knows?

Yesterday's first gig postees JoBoxers with their second single, the still rather wonderful Just Got Lucky, a much poppier affair than Boxerbeat. I seem to remember the sleeve (above) got us teenage boys quite interested at the time. Innocent times- teenagers today can see anything they want and more on their phones, back then we got excited about a few pairs of breasts on a 7″ sleeve.

Virgin Atlantic's Little Red domestic airline has been flying planes which are on average more than 60pc empty, figures reveal.
The domestic carrier, which was launched in March last year to feed passengers from the north of England and Scotland into Virgin Atlantic's long-haul network from Heathrow, has been the subject of intense speculation over poor ticket sales.
Data collated by the UK regulator, the Civil Aviation Authority, confirms for the first time that the domestic service has faced an uphill struggle in its launch year.
The CAA's figures show Little Red's load factor – indicating how many seats flown were actually occupied – was just 37.6pc in 2013, the lowest in the industry.
Little Red's performance puts it well behind rivals British Airways and easyJet, which recorded load factors of 72.4pc and 77.8pc respectively for 2013, according to the data.
In an interview with The Telegraph last month, Virgin Atlantic's chief executive, Craig Kreeger, who is seeking to return the airline to profitability by the end of this year, refused to reveal Little Red's load factor, saying rumours of the service's demise had been "greatly exaggerated". He said at the time: "The real answer is it's been building steadily and I'm now extremely comfortable with it."
Responding to the CAA figures this weekend, Virgin insisted Little Red's load factor so far this year has been "considerably higher than the 2013 average".
The carrier, which is now 49pc owned by Delta Airlines of the US, said: "We are very pleased with the progress we are seeing after Little Red's first year of operation.
Little Red offers customers a compelling alternative for domestic flights and more choice for connections to the rest of our long-haul network… Little Red ensures there will continue to be healthy competition on routes to and from Heathrow.
"We expected it to take some time for our customers to be fully aware of the service and we planned for comparatively low initial load factors.
"Now Little Red is gaining momentum. Since the start of 2014, it has been gaining market share, beating revenue and load factor budgets and generating great customer feedback. Our load factor so far in 2014 is already considerably higher than the 2013 average. We expect this to continue as we move into the summer travel season."
Little Red was launched after rival British Airways swooped on the UK domestic carrier, bmi, in a £172.5m deal in 2012, which was contested by Sir Richard Branson. Bmi, which was previously owned by Germany's Lufthansa, had been a major source of feeder traffic for Virgin Atlantic.
Virgin Atlantic's financial results for 2013 show Mr Kreeger, a former American Airlines executive who took the helm of the UK carrier in February 2013, succeeded in reducing its losses to £51m from £102m.
One comment under the photo and article:
What a tacky and tasteless advertisement.
You're not fooling anyone, beardy.
What is it with all the sexual innuendo from this guy? Dressing up as a stewardess in another advert, I recall. Is it just sensationalist trash for the proles?
and another:
Probably too expensive, Virgin is not known for it's low costs despite it's altruistic marketing message to the contrary – What was it about "you can fool the public some of the time but …….."

Losses halve at Virgin Atlantic
Craig Kreeger's turn-around programme begins to take shape as lossses fall to £51m in year to December 2013
24 Apr 2014
Losses at Virgin Atlantic halved in the year to December 2013 as new chief executive Craig Kreeger's turn-around programme began to take shape.
The Virgin Group-controlled airline, which celebrates its 30th anniversary this year, made a pre-tax loss of £51m in the 12 months to December.
Direct comparison for the prior year is made difficult due to a change in year-end – from February to December, bringing it in line with Virgin Group – but in the same period a year ago the loss was £102m on a pro-forma basis.
The last reported annual loss – for the 12 months to February 2013 – was £128.4m before exceptionals.
The airline emphasised that on a 10 month basis, from March to December 2013, the airline was profitable – before tax and exceptional items – to the tune of £7m.
Mr Kreeger said the airline made "good progress" last year and was on track to reach profitbality by the end of this year.
He arrived at the airline in February 2013, taking over from long-standing chief Steve Ridgway, since which time he has focused on cutting below-the-wing costs, launching Virgin's UK domestic service Little Red, and bringing the airline closer to Delta Airlines.
Delta bought a 49pc stake in Virgin Atlantic for $360m (£214m) from Singapore Airlines in December 2012.
The tie-up received regulatory approval last September, since which time the two airlines have begun to co-operate, the most visible example of which has to date has been Delta's move to Terminal 3 – from Terminal 4 – at London's Heathrow airport.
The joint venture is designed to bolster the profitability of both airlines by working together on trans-Atlantic and other routes.
"Going forward, the impact from our Delta relationship, which greatly enhances our revenue opportunities in the US…means we are confident that we will deliver on our target and return to profitability," Mr Kreeger continued.
The annual results also show that group turnover rose by 4.9pc in the year to December, including an increase in passenger revenue of £153m.
Some 6.2m passengers were flown by the airline in the year, including on its loss-making Little Red service which flies passengers between Manchester, Edinburgh, Aberdeen and Heathrow.
The airline's results include the figures for Virgin Atlantic Cargo, where sales fell 3.4pc as a result of a weak cargo market, and Virgin Holidays, which generated undisclosed profits on the back of an 8.1pc increase in revenue.

Google Culture Institute
Google has launched its Google Cultural Institute, a repository of exhibits and collections from museums and archives from around the world. Linked to Google Art Project, it allows for mulitmedia interactive experiences across a myriad of subjects. Users can also curate a collection on their end.
As a classicists, one of my favorites is "Greek Drama and the National Theatre." You can watch the evolution of performance, see examples, read scripts, enjoy in a 3D space, and more! Another great feature is that you can choose the language in which it displays. If you are teaching a French class, for example, you can have them explore the Louis XIV exhibit at Versailles in French rather than English!
There are many potential applications for this repository and the curation features in History, Art History, Language Studies, and more!
6 Great Social Reading Tools
Social reading supports many of the skills that the new literacies embody: communication, collaboration, critical thinking and online reading comprehension (among others). There are a growing number of social reading tools out there, and every librarian could use a few of those tools in his or her technology belt.
Here are 6 of my favorites:
Biblionasium Biblionasium is a social reading tool built for kids. It was named a 2013 AASL Best WebSite for Teaching and Learning. This one is so good that I recommended it to my daughter's fifth grade teacher. It could easily replace the giant stack of reading logs that currently takes up a whole corner of her classroom. And it would save her time in monitoring those reading logs. With Biblionasium, teachers can set up an account for the classroom, and have their students keep reading logs, write reviews, start reading challenges and even earn digital…

Once considered the "hidden paradise" of Ecuador, Montañita is now a favourite tourist destination for thousands of young people from Europe, the United States, and Latin America. If you Google the town then you'll read about all-night fiestas, cheap eats, consistent, surfable waves, readily available drugs, and the famous 'Cocktail Alley' where the music never stops ringing. It's also home to the 52nd best club in the world! Now there's a claim to fame.
Sadly, you'll also read about the two Argentinian tourists who were murdered on the beach in 2016. To say we were a little apprehensive about spending a month there – especially as I was signed up for a Yoga Teacher Training course – was an understatement.
But, it wasn't all bad.
For starters, we weren't in the centre of town but 15 minutes walk down the beach where there's a cute little gathering of hostels and restaurants. It's instantly calmer and more bohemian than the main town and to use the most common phrase in South America: es muy tranquilo. We were staying at Casa del Sol, also the venue for the teacher training, and it was fantastic. The stellar reviews online don't lie. It's a real "good-vibes" hostel, constructed out of stone and bamboo in a funky layout, the staff are friendly, and the food is delicious. Oh, the food! Alison, the in-house chef throughout the training, was so fantastic she has a post all to herself. There was also Tommy from Venezuela who makes the most incredible empanadas every Tuesday night.
Completing the teacher training is one of the best decisions I've made; I absolutely loved it. It's hard to believe how much we learned in just one month. It helped that there was a relatively small group of us and we had an incredible teacher, Cheryl. I've heard that some teacher training have up to 40 people in a class, which seems absurd to me now as with fewer people, the more time we had to practice teach. We were teaching each other on day 4!
The other girls and guys on the training were all incredible and unique in their own ways. There were people from the U.S., Canada, Germany, Austria, France, and Finland so we had a real mix of people, cultures, and languages. We all got along really well and, I hope, will stay in touch for years to come.
Tamara, who owns the hostel and facilitated the training was great. She's a down-to-earth, sassy, Canadian, who made us all feel at ease during the training. It was like having a big sister on the course with you; she completed her training with Cheryl many years ago so knew exactly what we were going to be learning and what was expected of us, so we could always turn to her for advice and guidance. Her life is pretty sweet, running a successful business and living in Ecuador, taking three months off a year to travel the world while Jackson (a fellow Canadian) mans the fort. I'll admit it, she's my idol.
So, you're probably wondering what Tim was doing all this time I was yoga-ing it up. Besides being busy winning 'boyfriend of the year' award, waiting patiently for me for an entire month, he was completing his TEFL course online and getting some surfing in. Montañita has consistent waves all year round so it's a hotspot for the surfer/hippy types. However, he avoided these crowds and bussed it up to Ayampe every other day to surf with Alex. It's a godsend Alex and Izzy were in the area for three weeks as I worry that the cabin fever that set in towards the end could have been a whole lot worse.
Tim didn't love Montañita but he made the most of it and kept his humour up, thankfully. He coined a new tagline: "Montañita…you're never too far from a turd." Due to the many stray dogs in town we were always dodging poo on the beach, something that's not so fun when you're walking home from town in the dark. You can't have it all though right, at least it was rubbish free and, despite the poo and when the sun is shining, it's a pretty beautiful beach.
There were some other pros too. He loved the cheap food, making a daily trip to the bakery to buy cheesy bread, croissants and yuka balls all for under a couple of bucks. Ezzio's pizza was a hit ($3 personal or $7 for a medium) – not really sure of the logic there but we didn't argue – and Caña Grill had amazing burgers for $3.50.
Despite me being on a yoga course (I thought it was going to be a month of detoxing) we probably drank more in that month than we have the entire trip! It's hard when the happy hour prices are so enticing and there are always people around who want to go out. We had a good night in Caña Grill (yep, it turns into a club later on) with all the Yoga students, celebrating Alison's birthday and another night we attended a slightly bizarre pub quiz at Bar Rustica.
One night walking home we saw something incredible on the beach! After dancing amongst some stray dogs in a club, as you do in Montañita, we saw a giant sea turtle laying eggs on the beach, very near our hostel. Only in Ecuador! We'd had some drinks so at the time we didn't really register how rare it was what we'd seen. The next morning we went to see if the eggs were still there, and to check we hadn't imagined it in our drunken state, but sadly the dogs or seabirds must have got to them when the mother left the nest. And she'll never know if they survived…so sad.
We actually swam with sea turtles in Isla del Plata. A few of us from the training decided to get out of Montañita for the day and escape to an island. We took a boat for a couple of hours out to a remote island where you can see Blue Footed Boobies nesting, swim with seals and turtles and spot countless species of birds. It was such a fun day and a nice break from the training, even if we were chanting yoga sutras the whole way there and back.
November was a productive month for us both; Tim is now TEFL certified and I'm a certified Yoga Teacher! Energised and ready to teach, it felt quite strange to be packing the backpacks again knowing the travels haven't ended. There's no reason why we can't put it into practice while we're on the move though.
We had one more week left on our Ecuadorean tourist visa so we headed to the Galapagos Islands.

A reader posted the following as a comment. I have no idea where the data come from and I assume his point is something to do with income inequality.
Country Year 2000 CEO compensation as a multiple of average employee compensation*
Brazil 57
Venezuela 54
South Africa 51
Argentina 48
Malaysia 47
Mexico 45
Hong Kong 38
Singapore 37
Britain 25
Thailand 23
Australia 22
Netherlands 22
Canada 21
China (Shanghai) 21
Belgium 19
Italy 19
Spain 18
New Zealand 16

Who cares? 😛
But let's explore a little. For example, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in 2012 the average salary for all American CEOs was $176,550. It's only when you get into the Fortune 500 companies that you see the eye-popping numbers. That's 500 people out of three hundred plus million Americans. And by the way, not even the AFL-CIO claims a multiple of 531 as shown below.
Chief executives of the nation's largest companies earned an average of $12.3 million in total pay last year — 354 times more than a typical American worker, according to the AFL-CIO. The average worker made $34,645 last year, according to the group that represents over 50 trade unions.
But even this is misleading because one number is total compensation and the average worker is cash compensation which does not include the value of non-cash compensation.
If you define inequality as not everyone making the same, then we have inequality … and thank goodness for it. Several years ago I was having coffee at a cafe in Italy with a fellow, but disgruntled, traveler. This fellow operated a small business and had for many years. Somehow we got on politics and pay and who knows what other taboo subjects. In any event he quickly made his position clear … "everyone should earn the same amount," he declared. "Everyone?" I tried to clarify. "Yeah!" he said as he sat there during a two-week tour of Italy. I couldn't let this one go so I asked if he knew what he would make if he and every other American earned the average? When I told him the amount, he gave a subdued "Humph" and changed the subject. Some ideas sound good until you see how they apply to you.
All this ranting about inequality and yet barely 2/10th of one percent of tax returns are for incomes over $1 million. Are some CEOs overpaid, they sure are. So are some clerks, loading dock workers and even teachers. Do I care if a CEO is overpaid, not one bit unless I am a shareholder and the stock is not performing or there are poor dividends paid. And you shouldn't care either.
In my opinion what you should care about is anything beyond your control, repeat beyond your control, that intentionally prevents you from getting a fair shot at improving your life and your income.


text: June 12, 2018 Update by flagbrewadmin | Dec 4, 2018 | Uncategorized | 0 comments WOW!!!!! What an amazing show! What an amazing festival! Thank you to everyone who came out and supported the 6th Annual Flagstaff Blues and Brews Festival!!!! For those of you who stayed to the end – you were rewarded with Ana and Robert playing together and one hell of a show! I am still amazed at how Robert Randolph can play the steel pedal guitar while jumping up and down on the chair and singing! OMG – what a great show!!!!! I think every one of our acts did a great job and left it all on the stage. There are so many people to thank for the success of the festival! Our team! Our team consists of interns, friends and family. Our NAU interns are amazing and we love working with them! They keep us young! This is how amazing our interns are – we had 4 of our interns that just graduated come back. One of them brought her parents who ALSO helped out tremendously! To the King family – we are grateful for all your help. We also had an intern who is a big dog at Peter Piper in Oklahoma (soon to return to AZ and be the western manager) fly out to help. They all knew I wouldn't be able to work the event and they all jumped in and were there for Jen. Every time I hear someone make a disparaging remark about today's youth, I put them in their place. We have worked with so many interns over the years, and only about 2 weren't cut out for events. With so many graduating, we now have a new group and I've already fallen in love. This festival is literally owned and produced by women! All of our interns are women, and all of our friends who help us out are women! I am so proud of them all! Our friends. Dang, between helping with hotel deals, running our greenroom and finance tent, where would we be without our friends! Our friends even volunteer to help us! We are so blessed with all the wonderful people who surround us in our mountain town! Our sponsors – WOW – what amazing businesses!!! Flagstaff Subaru – you guys brought your A game and we were so proud to have you present the festival! So much fun working with you and your team! Twin Arrows – Arizona's only 5 diamond casino resort who has been so good to us! Not only do they offer killer rates, they also sponsor our VIP area! Twin Arrows is the reason we have such great food and service. Their people have always been so fun to work with and they are the same way at the casino. GREAT folks! Timber Sky! Our stage sponsor. A new dark sky community in Flagstaff and even though they won't be selling lots until later in the year, they were on board and supported us! It is so nice to have a developer who cares about what makes Flagstaff so special – our dark skies!!! Hensley Distributors – what can I say – beer, wine, margaritas makes attendees happy and that makes me happy. Hensley has gone above and beyond with their support and their team makes us look good! Satchmos – feeds our bands. I know – lucky bands. Jamie and his crew have been with us since year 1 and going backstage is always fun with the Satchmo's crew! Great Circle Radio for getting the word out, Keeping the Blues Alive for the photo booth sponsorship, Bookmans for entertaining the kiddos, Clean Freak for sponsoring our hydration station, Canyon Coolers – THANK YOU for the letting us use so many coolers! Sunstate Equipment for all our electrical needs – along with GE Electric! Arizona Shuttle for shuttling volunteers, Southside Tavern for a great pre party, Flagstaff Extreme and Competition Carstar and of course Massage Envy for allowing our VIP to relax! Many more have made this possible, and thank you! A thank you to our vendors, volunteers and YOU! This was the hardest Blues and Brews I could have had. Not being able to be part of the team and running around was hard. However, I did notice a lot of things about the VIP I plan to change, so there's that. But the part that really blew me away, were all of you who came up and told me you were praying for me, telling us how much you enjoy the festival and basically just giving us your trust and love! Believe me, I was close to tears many times with your well wishes and comments. We are all in this together and both Jen and I feel there is no way we would be where we are without all of you who have come every year. The feedback that we receive from our attendees is priceless. We know we don't know everything, and each year is another learning experience, and with all your feedback and help, this festival improves every year. We can hardly wait to see the changes we make for next year! Okay, Jen can wait, but I'm on it! Jen's just a little tired and rightfully so. I went home on Saturday and couldn't sleep so I now have a list of all the acts I want to see. I'm going to fight the cancer just so I can see them all, because it's going to take a few years to book them all! A very large amount of gratitude to the two men in our lives. Jen's love Jason Brown, was outstanding. Poor guy had no idea he was going to have to be Jen's right hand, but he jumped in and the two of them were quite the team. And Patrick, Sunday was our 29th wedding anniversary. We were both so tired, we decided that we'll hit a nice restaurant in September (after chemo when I can really appreciate a meal!). He's always there when we need him and he doesn't complain. Which is good, because damn, I can't be easy to live with! I come up with ideas and he makes it happen. He might roll his eyes, but he makes it happen. Finally, if you made it this far – here is the reward. We need you to take our survey. We are entering each one into a drawing for 2 VIP tickets to next year's festival! I know, we're bribing you, but it works for us both! Take our survey and as always, we want your feedback. We want to know what YOU WOULD LIKE!!! We want to know the good, the bad and the ugly, because we want you to come back next year! The Survey will be sent out later today by eventbrite/survey monkey so keep an eye out! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!! This was the year we took off and we are so grateful for your support!

Senior NC leader Shehnaz Ganai quits party
Jammu, July 7:
Senior National Conference leader and former Member of Legislative Council Shehnaz Ganai has resigned from the party.
Shehnaz, who hails from border Poonch district, issued a brief statement announcing her disassociation with the NC late on Saturday.
She said she was "not feeling comfortable" in the party for the past some time.
Daughter of veteran NC leader and former minister Ghulam Ahmad Ganai, Shehnaz is considered a bold voice of Pir Panjal belt and is a staunch campaigner of women's rights.
She was elected to the J&K State Legislative Council from the Jammu division on the mandate of the National Conference through panchayat quota in December 2013 and completed her five-year term last year.
Shehnaz could not be contacted despite repeated attempts but the people close to her said she is weighing all options before deciding on her political future.
Jammu and Kashmir People's Movement leader Shah Faesal lauded Shehnaz as a leader connected to the masses and said the doors of his party are open for her.
