Grant from the Canadian Government
I have some really wonderful news to share. I just received this in the mail....
"On behalf of the Ontario Arts Council (OAC), I am pleased to inform you that you have been awarded a
Media Artists Emerging Program grant towards Standby in the amount of $10,000."
People tend to resist virtual art the same way they resisted calling photography and film art forms upon their arrival. The Daguerreotype was seen as a toy, yet now we have famed photographers ranging from Ansel Adams to Annie Leibovitz. When I talk about virtual art and identity to gallery curators I often come away with the same feeling. That they are now in their 50's, they have spent their life studying art forms to be an expert in a variety of areas. And that they don't want to start over with a new medium. It's quite understandable and I am not suggesting they all think that way, just the ones I have spoken to. I don't bring up Bryn Oh to them in an attempt to sway their views, I merely ask in order to find out their initial base reaction, so I can build up an understanding of the perspectives I am dealing with.
So a jury of peers reviewed my application which was based on my ghost artist Bryn Oh, and my story of the Rabbicorn. I spent a great deal of time expressing my opinion that some of the virtual art we are creating now will inevitably go down in history books. In fact Bryn Oh is on the syllabus to three Universities that I am aware of. I competed against "traditional" art applications and won. This idea is quite exciting to me as it turns into a form of legitimization of the medium. Not that the artists working here need people to tell them what we are doing is art and important. We already know that. But now the next time I apply for a big event the organizers will see that a large art organization has faith in me and my medium. You see at the top there is a logo they have supplied . Its a magic logo. When I now talk about virtual art to a curator, rather than them say "hmm isn't virtual worlds where dragons have virtual sex with vampires?", I will now attach that logo and they will instead say "hmm please tell me more about your ideas".
My grant is made up of two areas to accomplish. The first is to create a 30 minute movie for the Daughter of Gears, the Rabbicorn story and Standby into one piece. This final piece will be used to send around to movie companies to see if they are interested. The second part is to create a show in a RL gallery as Bryn Oh whereby I create a virtual environment for the guest to enter and explore. It would also be based around the story of Standby. I am hoping to use kinect and virtual reality headsets (which are quite tiny now) as part of this exhibit. So if there are any kinect programmers in the Toronto area please contact me as I will need to find a way to have them compatible. I have seen them work together in videos but programming is not my thing. Anyway, I am excited and just wanted to share the news on my blog.

That's great news. Congratulations! Your comparison to the Daguerreotype makes me wonder what people will be able to accomplish in another 25 or 50 years with this medium. We're in such early days yet.

The body of Christ (the church) is so important. I see this more and more to be true each day. How can I ask someone who does not know Him to pray for me? What kind of power could they possibly tap into? But those who know the Lord, know His power. The Lord is my Shepherd. But behold I am a sheep, far from cute and ridden with stupidity. I need a God who is wise, strong, loving and gorgeous to lead me and if at times he has to break my legs only to carry me on his shoulders? Well then I guess that's cool too. Nevertheless a flock (the church) has the ability to intercede for me. Especially when my lack of intelligence stubbornly refuses to hide. The body can also help me stand by drawing near to me, to lend me their support, to nudge me with their noses. To let me know we all belong to the most awesome Shepherd in the world, and that He loves us. We can trust Him. Where He leads we can follow and if I lose sight of Him, I can follow the sheep in front. But make haste to keep my eyes on him lest the sheep in front also goes astray and I follow the sheep there. We can all lie down in the pasture, for under His watch we are all safe. Yes, we are safe from the destroyer.

A beautifully designed mouthpiece with versatility in mind
The Morgan Fry Rhodium Alto mouthpiece has been designed by English mouthpiece maker Morgan Fry (one of England's top mouthpiece makers) and is designed with versatility in mind to satisfy all players demands and needs of the professional player.
Detailed description
It's a known fact that a lot of people find metal mouthpieces too bright and edgy for the alto sax and instead go for ebonite for more tonal character; however this is where this piece stands out. I was surprised how smoothly it played for a metal piece, full of character and tonal colours. There was a real sense of quality to this piece which shows by the care and attention put into the design with precision made to the rails, tip and baffle design with no marks; and rhodium plating which makes it really stand out. What was so surprising about this piece is it had a really fat depthy tone to it and was not thin or shrill which can often be the case with metal pieces and the altissimo popped out with ultimate ease.
The piece is very free-blowing and the subtone was really easy to play with real warmth and thickness to the sound. It also has some serious projection and power when pushed, and again this does not turn piercing or edgy. This is the sort of piece that allows you to really develop and find your own personal sound.
A brilliant all-round piece whether you want to play soft ballards or powerful funk/electro music. If you are in the mindset that metal pieces are too shrill, bright and edgy give this a go and it might just change your mind, thumbs up to Morgan Fry to this piece!

EDAL case summaries
If a Member State is responsible for carrying out an asylum procedure under the relevant terms of the Dublin Regulation, e.g. under Art. 29 (2) of the Dublin III Regulation, an applicant may invoke that Member State's responsibility if it has not been positively established that another Member State (which does not have responsibility) is willing to take charge of the applicant or take him or her back.
In such a case, it can be derived from the objective and purpose of the Dublin system, as well as the fact that it constitutes the procedural dimension of the substantive rights...
The Supreme Administrative Court (SAC) submitted the following two questions to the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) for a preliminary ruling according to Article 267 TFEU:
When a Member State accepts a request by Germany to take charge of an applicant in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 343/2003 of 18 February 2003 (the "Dublin II Regulation"), the applicant may be transferred to that Member State even if he/she limits his/her application to subsidiary protection after the request to take charge has been accepted.
An application to establish the suspensive effect of a pending appeal pursuant to Section 80, Paragraph 5 of the German Code of Administrative Court Procedure (Verwaltungsgerichtsordnung – VwGO) is not a legal remedy under Article 20, Paragraph 1 (d) of Council Regulation (EC) No 343/2003 of 18 February 2003 ("Dublin II Regulation"). A German court's dismissal of a Section 80, Paragraph 5 application does therefore not suspend the 6-month deadline under Article 20, Paragraph 2 of the Dublin II Regulation for a member state of the European Union ("Member...
UK - Court of Appeal, R (AR (Iran) v Secretary of State for the Home Department, [2013] EWCA Civ 778
This case related to a dispute as to whether the UK or Belgium had responsibility for determining the applicant's asylum claim
This case concerned the concept of 'safe country' within the Dublin system and respect for fundamental rights of asylum seekers. The Court held that EU law prevents the application of a conclusive presumption that Member States observe all the fundamental rights of the European Union. Art. 4 Charter must be interpreted as meaning that the Member States may not transfer an asylum seeker to the Member State responsible within the meaning of the Regulation where they cannot be unaware that systemic deficiencies in the asylum procedure and in the reception conditions of asylum seekers in that...
ECtHR - K.R.S. v the United Kingdom, Application no. 32733/08 (decision on admissibility), 2 December 2008
The applicant challenged his transfer to Greece from the UK under the Dublin II Regulation, on the basis that the situation for asylum seekers in Greece would lead to a violation of Article 3 ECHR. The Court declared the application manifestly ill-founded and therefore inadmissible, as it was presumed that Greece would comply with its obligations and would not refoule him to his county of origin Iraq.
The presence of an adult asylum applicant's sibling in an EU Member State entails no obligation for that State to apply Art 7 Dublin Regulation, as siblings are not included in the definition of family members in Art 2(i). This was the case even though the applicant's brother had been granted refugee status and, subsequently, citizenship in France.

|P.tiliguerta male
There are of course many species of reptiles on Corsica, but as this was a mainly bird and botany focussed holiday we did not go seeking them out especially. Despite this, we found at least three species of lizard, including the endemic Tyrrhenian Wall Lizard Podarcis tiliguerta. This was the most widely seen of all the lizards we found, occurring from sea level up to altitude, and they were obvious whenever the sun was out and they could bask.
The various species of Podarcis are widely distributed around the Mediterranean and North Africa, with one species reaching Madeira in the Atlantic, and they have a tendency to colonise even small islets where they form endemic subspecies. They have also been introduced outside their range, with two species introduced to parts of North America and even a small colony as far north as the south of England. This has been going on for some time, as Corsica is also home to the more widespread Italian Wall Lizard P.sicula, which was probably introduced by the Romans. It is unusual for two species of Podarcis to be found sharing an island, and on Corsica P.tiliguerta seems to be more adapted to the mountains that make up most of the island, while P.sicula we found in sand dunes along the coast, although what the precise ecological requirements are is not clear. Wall lizards are generalist insectivores, feeding on a variety of crickets, beetles, and the like.
The other lizard we found was a couple of specimens of the very widespread Moorish Gecko, Tarentola mauretanica. This is one of the two commonly seen geckos around the Mediterranean (the other is the Turkish Gecko Hemidactylus turcicus), and is the largest European gecko. Although like most geckos they are nocturnal, they do bask in the late afternoon sun and that is how we found them, although I did not manage to get a decent photo. They concentrate on nocturnal insects such as moths, and around houses they are often seen under street lights.
Next time, mammals

All of us have found ourselves in a situation where we need cash and we need it quickly. Perhaps we have a dire medical emergency, the need to help out a friend or relative, or we have simply succumb to an impulse buy. Regardless of the reason, rest assure if you are short on cash there are ways to come up with the money fairly quickly. Your method for earning or borrowing the funds is completely up to your preference.
While certainly not the most desirable method for coming up with money in a hurry, it is usually effective and quick. Borrowing money from friends and family is easy, plain and simple! You just need to check your ego at the door and approach them in a friendly and respectable manner. Provided it's a close friend or relative, and you haven't burned them on a previous loan, then you should make out just fine.
When time is of the essence then unsecured loans can be a good way to go. They are quick, easy, and can be processed entirely online. How do you like that for convenience? That also means that these loans are available 24/7, no waiting for banking or business hours to get the cash you need. Because the loans are unsecured that means you sacrifice a higher interest rate in order to avoid putting up your assets as collateral to back them. Just make sure you seek out a reputable and trustful company when applying for one of these loans.
Sell your stuff! This is certainly not a new concept by any means. However, people often fail to realize how many items in their homes they are not currently using, and that they can be valuable enough to sell. If you have a few minutes take the time to go through your basement or attic and you might be surprised by what you find. When you do find items to sell there are two typical methods to go about it. First, you have the online marketplaces that allow you to reach customers both domestically internationally. Obviously you can often command a higher price with a larger audience, but you also have to deal with selling and shipping fees as well. Then there are the local marketplaces where you can literally hand off the product for cash in hand. As with everything else, both methods have their pros and cons.

When we are stressed our buttons get pushed more easily and we find ourselves reacting in a way we normally wouldn't. Present day interactions can trigger childhood memories which might have been so painful we are no longer consciously aware of them. Instead of being able to act our age and respond from a mature adult perspective, a young (child) part gets activated together with its associated emotions and defensive reactions.
For example you might feel put down by a work colleague and you respond either more defensively than you want or "freeze" and say nothing. When an adult reacts like that it is likely that a young part has been triggered. It means that an upsetting event can cause you to experience the world through the eyes of a sad, angry, or fearful child who feels that her/his needs haven't been met.
So maybe the real problem has not so much to do with your colleague but that their behaviour is triggering some unresolved childhood issue?
When you find yourself becoming upset, you may want to get to the source of your stress. Ask yourself the following questions to identify whether your reaction belongs to an earlier pattern rooted in childhood:
- "Who or what from childhood does this situation remind me of?"
- "By whom or what did I feel put down/upset/challenged as a child?"
If you have identified the cause to be a childhood issue there are probably some unmet needs at the core:
- "What needs haven't been met for you as a child back then?"
- "Was it attention, connection, validation, protection, guidance, clear boundaries or information about the world?"
- "Does the child part need support to work through emotions, like fear, anger, and/or grief, which you could not process at that time?"
- "What messages does your "inner child" need to hear?"
How to heal those childhood wounds?
- Learn to form a positive relationship with your inner child, which can be supported through relaxation, play, journalling, drawing and/or sculpting.
- Give nurturing messages to your inner child to meet the needs that haven't been met in your childhood.
- Be a compassionate, caring parent for yourself.
- Take the time to check in with yourself on a regular basis.
- Tap into your own playfulness.
Of course this takes time so be patient with yourself!

Konos Vocabulary Flash Cards
As a member of the Konos group on Yahoo I recieved an update from the group this morning. One of the members has created a worksheet for the vocabulary words. I mentioned to her that Brandon has been using Quizlet for his vocabulary. It makes studying so much easier and he has chosen to play scatter instead of printing out the flashcards.
He puts his words in on Monday, the rest of the week he plays scatter. Scatter is a game where you have to match the word and defintion, but they are scattered over the screen, so it is a drag and drop game. It is great because it times him to see how fast he can match and retains the previous times so he can see how is doing.
On Fridays he takes the test which gives the definition and he has to put in the word. However, he discovered if he spells a word wrong it is counted as wrong.There are other options for the test such as true and false or multiple choice.
You can view the students results for both the games and the tests, this is better than I first thought. The big plus is he likes studying his vocabulary words, thank you Quizlet.
So,for those of you using Konos come and join the group!!!

Warfare as Worship
Consider this ...
You can worship The Lord in warfare. I had this conversation with The Father earlier today while I was packing for a trip. I've shared before that worship is warfare, but warfare is also worship.
As a spiritual mentor and prayer warrior, it gets frustrating that many people expect me to do their warfare for them. I prefer to teach you to war for yourself and family and your business and so that you can teach others. Yahweh expects you to learn, too, so that He can advance His Kingdom.
Let me explain. The role of a godly father is to teach children to war first and foremost and then to build. There's precedent for this being true all over The Written Word. Beginning to end.
The OT especially is all about God taking a person or group through battle after battle so they can build a legacy to leave for future generations (advance The Kingdom). And in theory the more your generation wars, the less the next generation should have to. They still have to war, it'll just be fewer or different battles.
David's line is a great example. He warred for decades for his legacy which eventually led to Messiah Yeshua. Solomon only fought a few battles because The Lord said he gave peace during his time. What Solomon warred at was basically going in and conquering - warfare, but mild warfare for sure. The battles Solomon should have been fighting - were spiritual ones to rid his life and wives of pagan gods - and he bowed out of those. Therefore, Rehoboam never saw his father truly war so when he became king for that season, he lost 10 tribes in his first three years or something like that.
Yeshua warred big for His legacy. He warred against religious spirits, demons of infirmity and the big fake, satan himself, and won all while teaching His disciples to build for the future. Yeshua was a much better father than David and Solomon were, though. Which makes total sense because He came from THE FATHER, The Creator of Fathering.
Anyway, back to warfare being worship to God. So, The Lord and I were chatting about how some believers refuse to war because of various reasons. Some think Jesus did it all so we don't have to fight. Some are terrified of spiritual warfare. But that fear is the result of not being given Bible truth or training. Others believe all they have to do is quote some verses and they're protected. Wrong! I'm not saying The Word doesn't work, obvi. What I'm saying is most believers have no clue about the spiritual laws that govern God's creation and the demonic realm does and they act on the premise of legal warfare. Therefore, we have to war to push them back from our lives, families and businesses, too.
So how does that make warfare worship of God? Very simply any time you perform God's will you're acting in faith and faith pleases God. Very simply warfare advances The Kingdom and that blesses God. Let me tell you what The Lord impressed to me today: Some people don't fully worship Him because they refuse to war which is required in life. Yes, there are different types and facets of worship, but not all of them are needed by everyone. For example, when God sends me to bless land that's a form of worship, but He doesn't send everyone to bless land. That may not be a form of worship He ever expects of you. But warfare is expected of all of us. Everyone. Young and old.
Why is warfare expected of everyone who lives on earth? Because we have enemies assigned against us that Yeshua already defeated big picture, and we must enforce His victory against our personal enemies small picture or we won't possess our birthrights which is God's original design for each of us. Get it? Advancing The Kingdom requires warfare and if you advance The Kingdom you'll definitely possess your birthright. Get it??
I'd love to hear your thoughts. Be exceedingly blessed!

As a teacher of The Written Word my goal is to provide revelation and understanding that can be lived out as wisdom. I've had the same conversation twice in one week about the topic of believers doing their best to get everything free instead of investing in The Kingdom and themselves.
Yeshua paid it all. And yes His work at Calvary was complete, but we have to pay and invest, too. Believers don't have any trouble buying name-brand bags, shoes and clothing (I know I don't have any problem paying what my favorite companies charge) but too often we want to undercut Kingdom entrepreneurs instead of supporting them.
That's dishonor and it's the exact opposite of everything Proverbs (and The rest of The Word) instructs. God's not gonna prosper an unrenewed, selfish mindset. Watch this short video for some real heat.

My Kid's a Math Genius!
I prayed and decreed this into existence by faith in The Word of God! You can do the same for yourself and your kids.
The Lord Gives Understanding
Deuteronomy 29:2-6 gives us insight into how God works in our lives. We can ask for and receive understanding about our circumstances and use the wisdom as a testimony and witness to others in times of need.
Cleanliness is Next to Godliness
In this series of videos I clear up some misconceptions, sayings and untruths we blame God for. Like and comment on the videos and get the book at Supernatural You.
Breakthrough into Total Provision
You may not be ready for wealth transfer, yet, but you at least should have every need met because that's a promise. If you don't have daily bread, you're perishing for lack of knowledge (best case scenario) or in sin (worst case). Listen to this wisdom and make the necessary changes.
Action Words
"He said the wealth of the wicked gets stored up for the righteous. Is that you? Are you righteous? Is God's way of doing and being right your heart's desire?"
LISTEN: Someone who's perishing - at least in some areas because they're works minded not faith minded - for lack of knowledge tried to tell me there's nothing I can do or have to do to receive from God because He loves me and that is not Biblical. All throughout the Bible God says, "Be like Me! Be like Me! Serve like Me! Honor Me! Trust Me! Love Me! Talk to Me! Ask Me!" Those are all verbs, verbos, action words.
According to this logic, if I didn't have to do anything or there was nothing I could do my behavior wouldn't matter and nothing would be classified as sin. I wouldn't even have to believe in God and I could still live a life full of miracles, signs, wonders, healings and supernatural provisions simply because He loves me. Not to mention Yeshua wouldn't have had to die if being in relationship with God wasn't required for me to go to heaven. Matter of fact, satan wouldn't have even been cast out of heaven; he'd still be there because of God's love.
Call me a liar if you want, but that hasn't been my experience. I've ALWAYS believed in God's love and yet I lived a mediocre existence for more than 30 years. I believe, and I could be wrong, what she meant was ... I don't know. I can't for the life of me figure out where in the Willy Wonka Chocolate Factory she got that from. If you see or understand something in that bit of logic, please enlighten me in the comments below. But it sounds pretty foolish to me.
In Revelation is for Elevation I challenge people who don't believe they have to participate to receive from God to not go to work for two weeks straight and instead sit on the couch watching tv (if you can afford to pay for it) with your feet up and then count all the money that falls into your lap from heaven while you're not producing. If God loves you and because of love there's nothing you could or have to do, it's not a risk to take me up on this challenge.
We wouldn't even have to pray' y'all. And that's what I do. That's my life. What would I do with myself if I didn't pray? Half my day would be empty.
This is the post that made 'em all preachy on me. Read the excerpt from It Is Written below and share your insight.

Revelation and Admonition
Let me just start with this ... I don't know what folks who don't have Holy Spirit do in tough times. Well, I do know because back in 2007 when big warfare came to me, I failed because I couldn't hear or see what the Spirit was saying and doing. Makes me wanna pray for people. I feel for anyone who doesn't know what's going on in the world or their lives in this season.
I've been in constant warfare - one battle after another - for the last 3 weeks. God has broken through each time because I haven't fallen for the enemy's schemes. I've run to Dad each time and didn't bad mouth, go off on anyone or allow discouragement to set in.
I received a new invitation to battle just a few moments ago, after winning a victory at 2:05 a.m. (so less than 12 hours later, I have to suit up again to fight). Both this battle and the one I just finished involved other women's actions or words against me; and both times the enemy was whispering in my ear curses to speak/release over them/to accuse them of should knowing and behaving better as believers. Well, that's not God's way, and I already know that I'm up for promotion which is why the warfare is so heavy.
Wisdom for us:
1. Don't run from the battle. Especially at this year end because promotions are being handed out from heaven [there's a podcast ep on this].
2. Watch your mouth. Do not curse another, and especially not someone anointed for the work of the Kingdom. It's better to stay silent than release a curse because that's a handshake of covenant with the enemy to hurt you and them.
3. You need to stay in prayer and the Word so that you don't get caught slippin'. That's what the enemy is hoping for - that you're not paying attention and accidentally come into agreement with them.
The awesome thing about having to pray so much is the revelation that's coming down. When you remain in a heavenly atmosphere you can't help but pick up what's being spoken and prepared there. Not only that I've served as a testimony to my son and several others because I've stayed calm through it all. My kiddo actually asked me, "How do you stay calm?" so I was able to tell him it's the peace that passes all understanding as well as the angel on my left telling me to "tread lightly, watch my tongue, etc."
It is written: He commands His angels to keep charge of me in all my ways.
Great grace to you in Jesus' name.

Petroalgae: $1.8 Billion Market Cap With No Revenues
Jun. 1, 2011 7:51 AM ET|4 comments| About: Parabel Inc. $PABL, Includes: $AMFW $REFG $XOM
Petroalgae (PALG.PK) has a current market cap of $1.8B, net debt of $57M, total assets of only $4M, and last 12 months' net loss of -$38M. Petroalgae has not generated any revenues since inception in 2006.
Management is well compensated. The CEO's 2010 salary was $486k, and five other senior managers earned over $200k. Five senior officers also received an $11.4M accelerated stock vesting in the fourth quarter of 2010, although that was based on the current high stock valuation.
Petroalgae is developing a process to produce bio-fuels from algae and other micro-organisms. In open-pond bioreactors, the company or future licensees grow aquatic microorganisms at accelerated rates, enabling the production of two end-products: a fuel feedstock that can be used in refineries, and secondarily, a protein that can be added to animal or human food.
Biofuels have a lot of potential. It is a renewable energy source that is in ample supply. As fossil fuel supplies may diminish in the decades to come, biomass fuels (converting bio-waste to energy, or algae to energy) become more attractive.
Petroalgae's stock hit an all-time high of $33 back in 2009, when Exxon Mobil (NYSE:XOM) announced that it would spend $600 million to study the feasibility of algae-based fuels, although none of those funds have been directed towards Petroalgae. Since then, Petroalgae has announced some corporate partners, most notably Foster Wheeler (FWLT), although monetization of these agreements have not yet occurred. In fact, one recent licensee, requested a refund of its $2M escrowed license fee, which was refunded in January 2011.

CBS's SEAL Team will return from its season two winter break with a new episode on January 2, 2019 at 9pm ET/PT. Season two episode 11 was directed by Ruben Garcia from a script by Holly Harold and Dana Greenblatt.
Season two episode 11 guest stars include Luke Mably as Nigel, Paul Gorvin as Rufus, Louise Lombard as Claire North, Ammon Jacob Ford as Michael Hayes, and Michael Broderick. Joelle Better, Christina Childress, Greg Fitzpatrick, Skyler Millicano, Salem Mikhael, Julien Briau, Ali Hoffmann, and A Leslie Kies also guest star in the episode titled "Backwards in High Heels."
The SEAL Team cast is led by David Boreanaz as Jason Hayes. Max Thieriot is Clay Spenser, Neil Brown Jr is Ray Perry, and AJ Buckley is Sonny Quinn. Toni Trucks plays Lisa Davis, Jessica Paré is Mandy Ellis, and Judd Lormand is Lieutenant Commander Eric Blackburn. Tyler Grey plays Trent in a recurring guest star role.
The "Backwards in High Heels" Plot – Bravo Team partners with the British Special Air Service to rescue passengers on a hijacked plane who are taken hostage by terrorists.
The SEAL Team Plot:
SEAL Team is a military drama that follows the professional and personal lives of the most elite unit of Navy SEALs as they train, plan and execute the most dangerous, high-stakes missions our country can ask of them. Jason Hayes is the respected, intense leader of the Tier One team whose home life has suffered as a result of his extensive warrior's existence. His team includes his trusted confidant, Ray Perry, the longest-tenured operator with whom Jason shares an ingrained shorthand; Sonny Quinn, an exceptional, loyal soldier with a checkered past who still combats self-destructive tendencies; and Clay Spenser, a young, multilingual, second-generation SEAL with insatiable drive and dedication.
Vital to the team's success are troop commander Lt. Cdr. Eric Blackburn, who serves as a leader and confidant both on and off the battlefield; CIA analyst Mandy Ellis, who has sacrificed everything in her drive to root out evil and take down terrorists; and Lisa Davis, a no-nonsense, take-charge logistics officer and unofficial den mother responsible for outfitting the team with the necessary gear for each mission. Deployed on clandestine missions worldwide at a moment's notice, and knowing the toll it takes on them and their families, this tight-knit SEAL team displays unwavering patriotism and fearless dedication even in the face of overwhelming odds.

|Serves: people
- This is another quick and simple but really tasty chicken dish that pretty much takes care of itself while cooking. Mop up the juices with crusty bread.
- Rinse the chicken joints under the tap and pat dry with kitchen paper.
- Wash and finely chop the rosemary, sage and thyme. Peel and bash the garlic.
- Heat the oil in a pan over a medium heat. Add the chopped herbs, the bashed garlic clove and the chilli flakes. Fry gently for 1 or 2 minutes until the herbs release their aroma.
- Turn the heat up. Add the chicken to the pan and brown the joints all over. This will take a good 10 minutes.
- Pour the vinegar over the chicken and let it bubble away for a couple of minutes. Add a little hot water if it starts to look a bit dry. Add a pinch of salt and a good grind of black pepper. Add the bay leaf.
- Turn the heat down low, cover the pan with a lid and cook for 25 minutes.
- Check that the chicken is cooked by piercing the fattest part of the joint with a knife. If the juices that come out are clear, it's done. If they're still pink, the meat needs to cook a bit longer.
- Lift the chicken pieces out of the pan and keep them warm. Remove the garlic.
- Add the honey to the pan and let the sauce bubble for 1 minute. Pour over the chicken pieces and serve immediately.

Apple Introduces In-Ear Headphones
Posted by Dennis Velasco Categories: Accessories, Apple, Music, Portable Audio / Video
Apple announced new in-ear headphones that contain two high-performance drivers, a woofer and tweeter, built-in. The price might be high at $79, but it may well be worth it, especially if you have a discerning ear. The three pairs of changeable is a nice inclusion since all ears are created differently and you'll be able to find just the right fit, unlike that last in-ear that Apple made a while back. Another nifty feature here is the "control capsule", which includes a microphone, volume adjustment, and music/video playback control. Oddly, despite the microphone, these don't seem to be compatible with the iPhone - Apple says the mic is great for voice notes though. In that case, we should all run out and get these! They'll be available in October.
What? You don't want to pay a high price for the Apple logo? I mean, comfort?

Sometimes when your car's best days are behind it, you've got to junk it.
Finding someone to buy your old car isn't as easy as you might think it is. Depending on what shape it's in, you've got to deal with low-ballers and private buyers that, let's be honest, are going to inconvenience you.
That's why junk car buyers exist.
They help you get your old, immobile, or parts car off your property easily and for a fair price. In this post, we're going to tell you why Cash Cars is the best junk car buyer in Wichita.
There are lots of scrap metal and junk car buyers in Kansas, but when you need someone to buy your car at a fair price and pick it up at your convenience, you've got to call Cash Cars. We've got your best interest in mind.
So, let's talk about how to junk your car.
The Best Junk Car Buyers in Wichita
When your car begins to fall apart, you might not know what the right course of action is. Do you try to sell it privately? Do you bring it to a dealership?
When a car is too far gone, it's going to be too much hassle to try and sell through either one of those methods. You're going to run into low-ballers and people who will want you to pay for repairs before the buy. A dealership will be even worse.
There's no way that you can get the money that you want when you try to sell the car yourself. A quality junk car buyer takes this burden off your hands, offers you a fair price for your old car, and comes to pick it up on their own dime.
We'll elaborate.
Why You Shouldn't Try to Sell a Junk Car
Selling a car in any condition is a complete nightmare. Not only is it difficult to find someone that's going to be interested in purchasing, but it's even more difficult to find someone that isn't going to insult you with their offer. This is all made worse when your car is on its last legs.
You know that with the right care, it might run again, or the parts might be worth something, so you try to sell it for what you think is fair, right?
This is where the real trouble with private selling is.
Private buyers are savage when it comes to low balling. There's no chance you'll get offered what you deserve for your car and sometimes what you get offered is borderline robbery. They often want you to cover repairs and transportation costs as well.
A dealership might see the value in what you're giving, but they're only going to give you a decent price is you take something off their lot, which you might not want to do.
Luckily, there's a much better option out there for you.
What Is a Junk Car Buyer?
A junk car buyer is someone who understands the burden that you're facing. If you're not made of money and you've got an old, barely-functioning car, it's hard to get the right amount of money for it.
You just want to get rid of the car, get some cash, and move on with a new automobile, right? Rather than go through the painstaking process of trying to sell your car, a junk car buyer will have the entire process over within a few quick interactions.
At Cash Cars, all you have to do is go to our website and obtain a free estimate of your junk car's worth. When you agree to our offer, we'll come to pick up the car with our towing service. All you need to do is be around with the paperwork to sign over the deed, and we'll give you the cash offer that we agreed upon.
There are a lot of these services operating in the Wichita region, but not all of them are honest and viable options. There are some telltale signs of a dishonest junk car buyer, signs that tell you to go in the opposite direction when you see one.
How Can I Trust Them?
You have to do a little bit of research before you can do business with a junk car buyer. Cash Cars understands that junk car buyers live and die with online reviews. That's why we offer incredible customer service with our free estimates and towing service, as well as honor our cash offers.
Don't bother with a car buyer that doesn't give you a free estimate ahead of time. And if they do, they should be asking for pertinent details about the car. Knowing the year, mileage, make, and model of the car is crucial to giving out a proper estimate.
Any service that tries to have you deliver the car isn't worth the trouble.
We offer free towing and so should any respectable car junking service. The name of the game is offering great customer service. You can usually tell if you're with a good service when you speak to them on the phone for the first time.
Lastly, a good junk car buyer will need the title for the car. If they don't ask you to have it ready, then it's not a legitimate business. We cannot take your car off your hands if you don't sign the deed over to us, making it our property.
Get the Right Price and Service
Don't risk working with bogus junk car buyers. Instead, check out our free cash estimate tool directly on our front page.
Enter all your car's information and we'll send you a free cash offer within minutes. Agree to it and we'll come to pick up your car at your earliest convenience.
As long as the car meets the expectations of our customer service professional, then you'll get cash in hand and the deal will be done. Get rid of your junk car once and for all with Cash Cars!

Selfridges | Oz The Great & Powerful
Selfridges celebrate the release of Disney's 'Oz The Great & Powerful' with an exclusive footwear collection by Nicholas Kirkwood and exhibition of original costumes and props from the movie displayed in the Oxford Street store windows.
'I'm delighted to be working with Disney on Oz The Great and Powerful. The characters from the film are as rich as the Land of Oz itself and I've had some great fun creating shoes to represent them. Each of the materials I have used are very much inspired by the characters.
The Wizard's shoe has embroided silver on top of suede and reflects the power that his character so desires.Glinda's character is whiter than white, almost angelic, so I wanted her shoe to reflect this. It has white lace infused with suede, a silver metallic pleated organza backing and then Swarovski crystals on the toe. It has a ladies shape but a very princess feel.
The dark and mysterious feel of Evanora's character is what inspired me most for this design. She is incredibly complex so I choose various materials and textures including black lace and sequins to show this. The boot inspired by Theodora is deep in rouges and blacks and features perforated velvet with ruby sequins underneath, representing the potential darkness within.' – Nicholas Kirkwood.
Take a look at the designs and window displays below:
