Daily Fishing and Outdoor Report
Monday, January 06, 2014:
The arriving bitterness could be far more damaging than the similar one we had last week. While the arriving cold snap will be kicking around the same single-digit real-time readings – with wind chills used in the quick-freeze industries – the arriving blast will be balls out to freeze the innards of our basements and crawl spaces.
The difference this blow-around is the lack of snow. Last week, our homes were essentially bundled in a blanket of relatively warm snow. Today's rain and 50-dgree air temps have sent the snow cover packing. That meltdown has created the worst case scenario for a flash freeze fiasco.
As the term suggest, a flash freeze is when anything wet quickly turns to ice. When the air drops to 10, it's becomes a deep-seated ice -- meaning it can rip apart pipes and gutters with the greatest of ease. What it can do to car door handles and windshield wipers isn't pretty.
I'd like to say there are ways to lessen the flash freeze impacts but there aren't towels big enough to dry your house, cars and garages. It becomes a tried/try case of keeping faucets running at pencil thickness all night -- and await the near balmy air that will be arriving by later in the week. Unfortunately, it's when the thaw takes place that the damage done by the ice-over springs to light. Good luck.
Despite some debate (energy-wise), hot water pipes should also be "dripped." Any pipes with still water are dead ducks. Hot water pipes are as prevalent as cold water pipes. They need some motion within. It comes down to keeping hot water moving (a bit) without emptying the hot water heater. Ideally, getting up in the middle of the night and flushing toilets and blasting on hot and cold water on for a few minutes could save the day. Sure, go ahead and sleep in the bathroom. Use cords to attach the sink faucets and the toilet handle to your toe. Wake up every now and again and give things a midnight flush and flow without climbing out of your sleeping bag. Can you tell I've done it already?
Sadly, this critical freeze over is literally the kiss of death for many hibernating creatures, especially herptiles. The rain and melt seepage will reach their buried sleeping haunts, literally introducing expanding ice crystals groundward and downward. I have seen the damage done by fast freezes during my spring frog and amphibian counts. Here's hoping the flash melt following this flash freeze will arrive in the nick of time.

Senate bill would send NOAA's Seafood Inspection Program to Interior
SEAFOODNEWS.COM [Food Safety News] - January 6, 2014 - Food Safety News
In mid-December, U.S. Sen. Richard Burr (R-NC) introduced a bill that would move the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and its seafood inspections to the U.S. Department of the Interior.
More broadly, the act transfers all functions of the U.S. Departments of Labor and Commerce to a newly established Department of Commerce and the Workforce. In doing so, a handful of offices would be moved elsewhere, including NOAA (currently under Commerce) to Interior.
Burr said that the consolidation of "duplicative programs" would reduce spending.
"The president has proposed merging and consolidating federal agencies several times over his two terms, and this bill advances that proposal," Burr said in a statement.
NOAA's fee-for-service Seafood Inspection Program offers inspections for businesses to demonstrate food regulation compliance and become eligible for stamping with official marks, such as U.S. Grade A, Processed Under Federal Inspection and Lot Inspection.
In January 2012, the director of the Office of Management and Budget said that if Congress were to grant President Obama the power to consolidate federal agencies, the White House would want to merge food safety agencies into one. The president's first plan to merge six business-oriented and trade agencies also included a plan to move NOAA to the Department of the Interior.
ASMI fighting misinformation scare about radiation and Alaska salmon
SEAFOODNEWS.COM [Kodiak Daily Mirror] by James Brooks Jan 6, 2014
Alaska salmon are safe to eat. Some days, the problem is convincing a buyer that's true.
In 2011, after the Tohoku earthquake and tsunami hit Japan and ruptured the containment of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, a wave of concern reached Alaska. Would radiation affect Alaska seafood? How much? When?
Those concerns ebbed as it became clear the danger was overblown. Now, a surge of inflammatory articles has revived the scare, and the Alaska Seafood Marketing Institute is fighting back, using facts in a never-ending game of Whack-A-Mole to defeat misinformation.
"We've seen a resurgence of really unsubstantiated scaremongering articles," said ASMI communications director Tyson Fick.
While Fukushima is a relatively new issue, ASMI has always fought misinformation about Alaska seafood. "One month it's mercury, another month it's PCBs, and right now it's radiation," Fick said. "It's kind of the concern du jour."
The cycles are typically driven by unscrupulous "click-bait" websites designed to draw attention with inflammatory headlines or pictures. When thousands of readers click a link to "Find Out Why Doctors Hate Her" or read "28 Signs the West Coast Is Being Absolutely Fried With Nuclear Radiation," those websites cash in on advertising revenue.
If Alaska seafood sales decline as a result, it's collateral damage. "It just takes a few articles in a row," Fick said.
In 2013, Alaska fishermen harvested 272 million salmon worth $691.1 million. If buyers are scared by fraudulent claims, wholesalers may not buy that salmon. It's ASMI's job to head off the problem.
"Mostly what we get are requests from people that are our customers that we work with: 'I know this is crazy, but I've got this customer that has these questions, how do I get them the appropriate information?'" Fick said.
Usually, that involves a pointer to the Food and Drug Administration, which states plainly on its website: "To date, FDA has no evidence that radionuclides from the Fukushima incident are present in the U.S. food supply at levels that would pose a public health concern."
Dr. Bob Gerlach, Alaska's state veterinarian, agrees. "At this point, the data shows there does not seem to be any impact on the heath and safety of seafood harvested in Alaska," he said.
The key thing, he said, is to distinguish between scaremongering and actual threats. After the Fukushima Daiichi accident, scientists detected elevated levels of radioactive Cesium 137 in the Pacific Ocean.
It's above normal but hardly harmful, as a 2013 paper in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences pointed out. That paper determined that someone would have to eat 275 pounds of seafood per year to experience the radiation equivalent of one dental X-ray.
"It's significant from a scientific view but not a public health view," Gerlach said.
At ASMI, Fick said his group will keep fielding questions about radiation and whatever the next scare turns out to be. "Our buyers, our customers generally feel really good about the market," he said. "We'll keep our head down and keep plugging away to get the truth out there."
Bluefin tuna goes for a song at first Tokyo auction this year compared with year-ago
SEAFOODNEWS.COM [South China Morning Post] By Ernest Kao - January 6, 2014 -
A giant bluefin tuna sold at auction in Japan yesterday for about 95 per cent less than the record-breaking sum paid last year – but Hong Kong diners are unlikely to see too steep a drop in prices for the delicacy.
The 230kg fish was purchased at the Tsukiji market's first auction of the year for 7.36 million yen (HK$545,000), significantly lower than the 155.4 million yen paid for a fish of similar quality in 2013. It is the first time in five years that the auction price has slipped below 10 million yen.
Bluefin is usually the most expensive fish available at Tsukiji, the biggest fish and wholesale seafood market in the world.
Intense bidding last year sent prices skyrocketing and deterred other bidders from vying with the popular Sushi-Zanmai restaurant chain.
The same chain won this year's auction. Kiyoshi Kimura, whose Kiyomura Company operates the restaurants, said: "I'm glad that the congratulatory price for this year's bid went back to being reasonable."
The rival Hong Kong-linked Itamae-Sushi chain was top bidder for the biggest bluefin four years in a row until 2012. Founder Ricky Cheng Wai-tao famously became the first non-Japanese to claim top prize at the annual auction after he forked out HK$430,000 for a bluefin in 2008. His last winning bid, in 2011, was for a record HK$3 million bluefin weighing 342kg.
Cheng could not be reached for comment yesterday.
Federation of Restaurants & Related Trades President Simon Wong Ka-wo said the lower auction price would not signify too much of a drop in bluefin tuna prices at local restaurants.
"Bluefin tuna is generally priced very high and not that many people can afford it, so retail prices are not likely to be affected too much," he said.
Jackel Lui, who manages a high-end Japanese restaurant in Hong Kong, agreed.
"Previous 'sky high' bids for tuna in Japan were just public relations gimmicks. They did not reflect the true market prices for bluefin tuna," he said.
Lui said many restaurants in Hong Kong did not have bluefin tuna on their menus any more and instead were sourcing the less endangered yellowfin, farmed tunas or tunas from other parts of the world such as the Philippines or the United States.
Chamber of Seafood Merchants Chairman Lee Choi-wah said the low figure could signify weakness in the Japanese seafood export industry, a weaker yen and worries about declining global stocks of bluefin tuna.
Part of this year's price decline was also in part due to the greater number of bluefins available from Oma, the city in northern Japan that is a top site for tuna fishing.
The Lobster Council of Canada launches campaign to differentiate Canadian lobster
SEAFOODNEWS.COM [Canwest] - January 6, 2014 -
The Lobster Council of Canada - an industry group composed of people, not lobsters - thinks the time has come to elevate the noble Atlantic crustacean to national iconic status, alongside such quintessentially Canadian treats as maple syrup and peameal bacon.
To that end, it has launched a campaign to promote the Canadian essence of this conveniently red delicacy, and to create a logo that sets the hardy hard-shell apart from the soft-shelled moulters of nearby Maine and the spiny lobsters - glorified shrimp, really - of warmer, southern seas.
Most Canadian lobsters are hard shelled
At the heart of the campaign is a marketing mystery: What makes a lobster Canadian? Why is the lobster, as the president of the brand consultancy hired for the project put it (with apologies to the Malpeque oyster) "Canada's most iconic shellfish"?
The answer is a long story, said Geoff Irvine, executive director of the Lobster Council of Canada, encompassing a reputation for quality, sustainability and traceability; the life stories of the hardy folk who harvest it; the smell of traps drying on a wharf; the sheen of drawn butter on a chunk of knuckle; the joy of butchering it yourself and slurping juice out of cracked claws; and the magical culinary pairing with potato salad.
"These are all things that make the brand story, make the brand promise," Mr. Irvine said.
"We know in the market that Canadian lobster gets a premium of any other similar type of lobster, and we want to be able to tell that story through a brand," he said. "It's just part of our desire to get the industry to work more together, to collaborate more, to think more professionally."
Partly it will involve research, like interviews or surveys, to "drill down to the DNA" of the Canadian lobster, as Mr. Irvine put it - metaphorically, of course, because genetically, there is not a whole lot of difference between Canadian lobsters and their cousins in the waters off Maine.
Most Canadian lobsters are hard shelled, and the season is staggered around the summer moulting season, when lobsters shrug off their shells to let new ones grow. In Maine, they take more soft-shelled lobsters, right after moulting. Typically, soft-shelled lobsters yield less meat, but are often said to taste better, with sweeter, more tender meat.
Nelson Angel, president of Revolve, the branding agency leading the lobster project, would not be baited on this question of taste, and said merely that they taste different.
"There's certainly perspectives both subjective and scientifically proven," he said. "It's about looking at those differences and finding a way to ensure we're differentiating in a way that does position Canadian lobster as the lobster of choice."
He said the design of a brand will involve sensitivity to things like environmental concerns, cultural differences, and perhaps even whether lobsters feel pain.
"We do want to make sure that there's nothing offensive, of course, in the logo or the identity," Mr. Angel said.
GMO labeling of foods battle goes on as FDA approval of Aquabounty nears
SEAFOODNEWS.COM [AFP] By Veronique Dupont, - January 6, 2014 -
NEW YORK, A GMO labeling battle is rumbling in the United States, with those demanding full disclosure of genetically modified organisms in food products pitted against big companies.
Although some giants such as General Mills have recently taken timid steps toward being more upfront with consumers, the United States, unlike some 60 other countries, lacks a legal requirement to do so.
Still, in the world's largest economy, where almost all soy, sugar beet, corn and canola crops are genetically engineered, bills requiring labeling for GMO foods were introduced in 26 states last year.
But only Maine and Connecticut approved such measures and have yet to implement them.
Alaska adopted a law in 2005 requiring labeling of genetically engineered salmon, whose safety for human consumption is still being studied by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Elsewhere measures have been defeated, notably in the state of Washington, where voters narrowly rejected GMO labeling. Other proposals are near death or languishing in legislative committees.
But supporters of GMO labeling of food insist they are unfazed and determined to shore up more support.
"We expect even more states this year" to join the battle, particularly Oregon and Colorado, said, Colin O'Neil of the Center for Food Safety, a nonprofit organization that opposes GMO foods.
While one bill in Vermont was likely to pass this month, two senators were working on federal legislation, he said.
The labeling of genetically engineered foods is "an issue that exploded last year at the state level" due to consumer pressure, according to O'Neil.
A recent New York Times poll found that 93 percent of Americans want GMO food to be labeled.
For O'Neil, "the tipping point came with the California ballot initiative" on GMO labeling that was narrowly rejected in 2012 due to a costly counter-campaign by large multinationals.
Agrochemical giants such as DuPont, Monsanto, Syngenta, and BASF, joined by food behemoths including Coca-Cola, PepsiCo and Kraft Foods ponied up a combined US$46 million for advertising and other means to convince voters to reject the proposal.
The anti-GMO side spent US$9 million.
"That sent a tremendous signal to consumers," O'Neil said. "Many were unaware that companies would spend so much to keep consumers in the dark."
The Grocery Manufacturers Association, which represents leading food, beverage and consumer products companies, said the organization has maintained "strong support for a federal solution" regarding standards for the safety and labeling of GMO foods and beverages.
"Our nation's food safety and labeling laws and regulations should not be determined by political campaigns or through a patchwork of state laws," spokesman Brian Kennedy told AFP.
The GMA argues it agrees with the FDA and other agencies, such as the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, that foods and beverages containing genetically engineered ingredients are safe and that labeling would be costly for small farmers, as well as the agencies verifying them.
Some Companies Take Small Steps
But there are small signs the issue is making its way to the front burner.
General Mills announced Thursday that it would make its popular Original Cheerios breakfast cereal without GMOs, and U.S. consumers would see it labeled as such.
"We did it because we think consumers may embrace it," the company said. "But it's not about safety."
However, General Mills, whose brands include Haagen-Dazs ice cream and Yoplait yogurt, said that for other varieties of Cheerios it will not be able to forgo GMOs.
"The widespread use of GM seed in crops such as corn, soy, or beet sugar would make reliably moving to non-GM ingredients difficult, if not impossible."
A few other companies have also addressed the GMO labeling issue lately.
Supermarket chain Trader Joe's says it sells only non-GMO products.
Meanwhile upscale grocer Whole Foods, which sells a large amount of organic produce, plans to label genetically engineered products — but only as of 2018.
As for fast food chain Chipotle Mexican Grill, it has started listing genetically engineered ingredients on its website. "Our goal is to eliminate GMOs from Chipotle's ingredients, and we're working hard to meet this challenge," it says. But "there is currently not a viable supply of responsibly raised meats and dairy from animals raised without GMO feed."
Sea Shepherd in annual pursuit of Japan's Southern Ocean whaling fleet
SEAFOODNEWS.COM [Deutsche Welle] - January 6, 2014 -
The anti-whaling group Sea Shepherd is conducting its annual pursuit of Japanese whaling vessels. Activists say they have evidence of several whales being slaughtered.
"There's three carcasses on the ship, a fourth carcass has been cut up. There's blood all over the place, meat being carted around on this factory ship deck, offal and innards being dumped in the ocean," Bob Brown, the chairman of Sea Shepherd Australia, said.
He described what he had seen as "a gruesome, bloody, medieval scene which has got no place in this modern world."
The group used a helicopter to shoot pictures of the Japanese vessels from the air. The photos show three minke whales dead on the deck of the factory ship Nisshin Maru. The group said a fourth whale was being slaughtered when the helicopter flew overhead.
Brown also claimed that one of the ships was inside the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary, calling the alleged violation a "gross breach of international law."
A spokesman for Japan's fisheries agency responded to Brown's claims by saying: "We are not aware of the existence of a whaling sanctuary, so we don't want to comment on their arguments."
Japan says it is hunting the animals for scientific purposes under an exception to a 1986 ban on whaling. This year, it is planning to kill about 1,000 whales as part of what it calls a "research plan submitted to the IWC (International Whaling Commission)."
Opponents argue, however, that this is just a cover for commercial whaling, as the meat not used for study is sold as food in Japan.
Sea Shepherd engages every year in sometimes forceful clashes with Japanese whaling ships while trying to make them stop their hunt. Stink bombs, water cannon and ship collisions are a common feature, and in one year a Sea Shepherd boat sank after its bow was sheared off.
Australia went last year to the United Nations' highest court in a bid to outlaw Japan's annual whale hunt. The International Court of Justice is expected to issue a ruling sometime this year.

OWC Pharmaceutical Research Corp
Shares of OWC Pharmaceutical Research Corp (OTCMKTS:OWCP) gained 4.50% last Friday, but still were at levels unseen since early January of 2017. Share volume was heavy – about 75% over their 30-day daily average of 1.2 million. Over two million shares traded hands with a notional value of over $700,000.
One World Cannabis Ltd. (OWC) is a wholly owned subsidiary of OWC Pharmaceutical Research Corp (OTCMKTS:OWCP) and discovers and develops cannabis-based therapies and treatments for ilnesses including multiple myeloma, psoriasis, fibromyalgia, PTSD, and migraines. OWC is also developing proprietary delivery systems for the delivery and dosage of medical-grade cannabis. All OWC research is conducted at leading Israeli hospitals and scientific institutions. OWC has two divisions – research and consulting. Its research division pursues clinical trials that will evaluate the effectiveness of cannabinoids for the treatment of various medical conditions. OWC's consulting division assists governments and private entities create and navigate legal cannabis regulatory frameworks on a global basis.
At the beginning of 2017, shares of OWC Pharmaceutical Research Corp (OTCMKTS:OWCP) began rocketing up from under $0.20 per share to, by the end of February, over $3.20 per share. The catalyst for the gains was a number of appointments to key posts in the company followed by the company receiving the Israeli Institutional Review Board's (IRB) approval to conduct safety testing on its proprietary topical creme compound for the treatment of psoriasis and related skin conditions. That news followed a U.S. SEC 8K filing announcing an extension to the size and scope of its efficacy study on the same compound, which began in November 2106.
However, since that time, OWCP shareholders have lost interest and last week OWCP shares began trading under $0.40 per share. Some observers believe that OWC Pharmaceutical Research Corp (OTCMKTS:OWCP) may have a tough time creating a commercially viable product to generate revenues. Cannabinoid-based creams to treat skin ailments have existed for some time but without scientific study to back them up. OWC Pharmaceutical Research Corp (OTCMKTS:OWCP) is now pursuing clinical trials that would, hopefully, confirm the safety and efficacy of such a treatment. However, should One World Cannabis prove the science, what is to stop existing cannabinoid-based creams from piggy-backing on the results for a fraction of the cost as they had no such expense to absorb?
I have no positions in any of the stocks mentioned, and have no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours. All information, including any data, is provided without any guarantees of accuracy.

1 ) Avoid chaos
Take a look at the homepage right now. What's first of all a visitor considers? There should be a specific point of focus. The visitor's sight should be driven straight to a CTA button or products you promote.
What activities do you want buyers to take whenever they visit your internet site? Obviously, you want those to make a purchase. Make this as easy as possible for them. Don't distract people with clutter. It's mind-boggling and puzzling.
2 . Simplify your selections
Menus are a good way to stay planned and group what you happen to be selling. But as just mentioned, you don't want to overcomplicate stuff. Too many menu categories definitely will confuse the consumer, preventing them from obtaining what they're looking for. Your menu shouldn't be very specific. Rather, use broad terms to categorize your products.
4. Add a search bar
Shall we continue talking about simplicity. Now that you've removed some mess and basic your menu options, you will still need to make more changes. Seeing that visitors may have fewer menu selections, they'll see even more products when that they click on every category. Pressuring users to scroll through these selections randomly won't drive product sales and sales. That's so why implementing research online bar is the best solution.
4. Buy a premium web hosting service
Swiftness is one of the most critical elements of a productive ecommerce web-site. Each webpage needs to load fast to yield great conversions.

That's why you're better off spending the money over a premium internet hosting plan at this time as opposed to working with these headaches later. Keep in mind that, it's really worth the investment.
5. Remove steps in the checkout procedure
Once a website visitor determines to buy some thing, they should find it easy to complete the purchase. Is your job to produce it hence. The key suggestions to receive only necessary information in the buyer.
6th. Don't push shoppers to create a profile (but encourage it)
As I simply just said, you want the buyers to undergo the checkout process immediately. That's why you ought to offer a guest checkout alternative instead of forcing visitors to create a profile. Then again, you can nonetheless encourage them to build a profile.
7. Send shopping cart software abandonment messages
Once a individual sets up their profile, you are able to tell whenever they add some thing to their shopping cart software without investing in it. Rarely ignore this kind of. You're missing out on money. Sometimes, they were only a click or maybe more away from completing the deal. Clearly, we were holding interested in the item enough to add this to their basket. Sending an email reminding the consumer about the product can be sufficient to finalize the sale.
eight. Prioritize SEO
Not everyone who wants what you're reselling will steer straight to your website. In fact , analysis shows that 46% of consumers start out the choosing process by using a search engine, such as Google. In case your ecommerce site isn't among the top effects, they'll buy from one of your opponents instead. That is why is so important so you might focus your time and energy on seo. Do the whole thing in your capacity to reach the very best of Yahoo rankings depending on searches relevant to whatever the brand is normally selling.
9. Write blogs on a regular basis When will the same person visit your online business website? It's likely, they're not buying some thing every day. They probably will not buy something even once weekly. Only the top consumers might shop once each month. If persons aren't in your website, they obviously cannot spend anything. But running a blog in addition on your ecommerce internet site is a great method to build a strong following. At this moment people have grounds to check out your websites on a daily or regular basis. When they're on the webpage, they'll become more likely to buy something.
10. Build an email subscriber list
Building a great ecommerce email list is usually one of your finest options. Upon having a subscriber's email address, you can contact them with special offers and promotions to entice product sales. A great way to put subscribers is always to collect emails during the peruse process.
11. Accept as many payment options as possible
You can't expect everyone has a Visa or perhaps MasterCard. Regardless if they do, that doesn't mean it is very their favored payment option. One of those pc cards may be maxed out, or perhaps they would have better a regular membership benefits about another credit card. Your online store site must also accept different payment options such as PayPal and Apple Pay.
doze. Write interesting product information
You can't sell something with just a term. Each product on your web page needs to have a beneficial description. Nevertheless make sure you prevent large hinders of text. Keep these types of descriptions short and to the actual. Explain how the product functions by highlighting the true secret benefits. You don't ought to explain the whole history of the product or how it was made. That won't drive sales. You can even employ bullet points to make it easy for buyers to scan through the text and read the explanation.
13. Get rid of ads
A few of you may be using your ecommerce site as a program to sell posting space to other brands. Rarely do it. You're making a large mistake if you. Sure, you can find some extra income. Nevertheless it's not well worth turning away your very own customers. Sidebar ads and popups will consider like unsolicited mail. A visitor might be afraid to click throughout your site with respect to the fear that they'll become redirected someplace else that's untrustworthy.
14. Provide you with easily accessible support services
Not all of the transactions on your own ecommerce site will go effortlessly. Customers will have questions and problems. This can be inevitable. When folks are going through an issue, just like finding a item or troubleshooting an item they have previously acquired, you want to ensure they can receive help as quickly as possible.
15. Operate tests and analyze the results
How can you know if your ecommerce site is set up for the purpose of the highest possible évolution? You would not. But if you run A/B tests regularly, you'll have a lot better understanding. Based upon the results of your exams, you can make the essential adjustments, elevating the chances of the success.
fourth there's 16. Go cell
Your ecommerce site has to be optimized intended for mobile devices. That is because within the last six months, 62% of people who owned a mobile phone used all their devices to complete via the internet purchases. You can not afford to exclude portable shoppers. If you want to take the mobile strategy to the next level, you can even want to consider building an software for your online business business.
18. Offer free shipping and delivery
It's straightforward: don't requirement your customers pertaining to shipping. Place yourself in the shoes of any consumer. They will see a selling price listed on one page of your website, nonetheless at peruse, they find additional fees. Sure, they will expect to spend taxes, but shipping also? These added costs will be driving people away. Boost the prices of the products to coat any delivery costs sustained by you as opposed to asking for shipping and delivery separately.
18. Partner with manufacturer influencers
Establishing credibility is among the best ways to drive sales and still have a successful e-commerce website. Developing a celebrity or perhaps someone using a strong sociable following jaacav.net recommend your site is likely to make you seem more legitimate. This advertising tactic would not be absolutely free, but it really can yield a superior ROI. Just be sure you're working with someone related to your sector. If you're providing skateboards and related goods, having an influencer who has never skateboarded won't own much of a direct effect on your sales.
19. Display high quality product images
Having an online business shop means customers rarely get to touch and go through the products the same way they can in a physical retail outlet. They depend on pictures to provide them a feeling of what they're buying. Honestly, that is why you need to take multiple pics from every angle of each and every product you happen to be selling. I am aware this may seem tedious, yet it's required. Zoom in and showcase all the top features and benefits.
twenty. Give video demonstrations
Sometimes, images are not enough. Should you be selling anything requiring an indication, add a online video.
21. Feature customer review articles and recommendations
Testimonials and reviews are another way to put credibility to your products and manufacturer. It's important that you include these kinds of on your ecommerce site. After a customer buys something, send out them an autoresponder email requesting them to review the item they will bought. Just make sure you give all of them enough time to work with it prior to you ask because of their feedback.

The Province of Alberta is giving 11 Indigenous women the opportunity to become heavy equipment operators.
The program provides 12 weeks of training and direct hands-on experience operating a variety of machinery, including motor grader excavators, bulldozers, front-end loaders and articulated rock trucks. The average wage of a heavy equipment operator is $72,000 a year.
"Alberta is proud to support employment and training initiatives for Indigenous people," said Richard Feehan, minister of Indigenous relations, in a press release. "Training like this provides strong employment opportunities for these women, and the sense of pride that comes with moving towards financial security and independence."
The Alberta government provided $160,888 to the Oteenow Employment and Training Society and the Tribal Chiefs Employment and Training Services Association to run the program. The training is taking place at the High Velocity Heavy Equipment Training College, just west of Edmonton. High Velocity boasts a 92 per cent job-placement rate for graduates and participants often secure employment before they finish their training, states the release.
"Oteenow appreciates the long-standing relationship with the Government of Alberta (GOA)," said Roberta Bearhead, executive director of the Oteenow Employment and Training Society. "The support Oteenow receives from GOA has allowed us to invest in youth, Indigenous women and all First Nation, Inuit people residing in the Edmonton metropolitan area."
The funding comes from the Canada-Alberta Job Fund, a federal-provincial agreement designed to help deliver skills training to current and future workers. It is administered through the Alberta Employment Partnerships Program, which has provided $8.7 million to support skills development and training opportunities for Indigenous people in Alberta since 2015.

The New Arms Race in AI
China is making big investments in artificial intelligence, looking for military advantage—while the Pentagon is determined to maintain its edge.
Four years ago, planners at the Pentagon reviewed estimates of China's growing military investments with what one called a "palpable sense of alarm." China, the planners determined, was making advances that would erode America's military might—its ability to project power far from its shores. The search began for technologies that could give the U.S. a new warfighting edge against its rival.
The officials were particularly impressed by one artificial-intelligence project. The program could scan video from drones and find details that a human analyst would miss—identifying, for instance, a particular individual moving between previously undetected terrorist safe houses.
"That was the 'Aha!' moment I had been looking for," said William Roper, then the head of the Pentagon's Strategic Capabilities Office. His superiors quickly latched onto the potential of America's world-leading efforts in artificial intelligence. The U.S. could maintain its advantage, they hoped, by exploiting the growing ability of computer systems to adapt rapidly to novel conditions, respond autonomously and even make certain decisions within rules set by programmers.
The problem, according to U.S. officials, is that China's People's Liberation Army was closely watching the Pentagon's technology search, and some of its officers soon had an "Aha!" moment of their own. The turning point was March 2016, said Elsa Kania, a specialist on Chinese military innovation at the Washington-based Center for a New American Security. That was when Google's DeepMind used AI to defeat a world champion in the ancient Chinese game of Go. The outcome, she said, persuaded the Chinese military that AI could surpass the human mind and provide an advantage in warfare. Last July, China unveiled plans to become the world's dominant power in all aspects of artificial intelligence, military and otherwise, by 2030.

Once you are convicted of a moving violation in New York, there are only two ways to deduct points from your license. One involves time and the other involves education.
But first lets discuss briefly how the New York point system works. You are generally allowed up to 10 points on your driving record within 18 months (based on dates of offense). At 11 points, your driver's license can be suspended. For more details about the points system, read my post entitled "How Many Points Am I Allowed On My New York Driver's License?"
So once you are convicted, are there any ways to get those points deducted? The answer is "yes". One involves the passage of time. After 18 months counting from the date of offense, you will no longer have those points vis-a-vis new, future tickets. That is, convictions 18 months or more apart (based on date of offense) are not added to one another. Note: For insurance purposes, convictions count against you for 36 months based on the date of conviction.
How Many Points Does Defensive Driving Take Off In NY?
The other way to deduct points is to take a 6-hour New York State Driver Safety Class. You can take such a Class once every 18 months and you can take it online or in-person.
The NYS Driver Safety Class does not technically remove the conviction, however. Instead, the class deducts up to 4 points from your current total (while leaving any convictions visible on your record). The class will only deduct your point total for convictions that have dates of offense that are BEFORE the date of completion of the class counting 18 months back. It is for this reason that we often recommend to our clients with point issues to take this Class before they are potentially convicted of any open moving violation that could put them at 11 or more points. They will get credit for the Class even if they are convicted of this traffic ticket afterwards. Stated differently, as long as the date of offense precedes the Class by 18 months or less, then you will get credit for the Class vis-a-vis that traffic ticket (even if you are convicted of that ticket after you complete the class). However, you will NEVER get a credit for future tickets (i.e., ones that are issued after you complete the Driver Safety Class).
Finally, you can only take the New York State Driver Safety Class once every 18 months so we recommend that save it for those instances when you either already have 4+ points on our record (so you get the full benefit) or when you are facing a possible suspension for too many points.

Hello, good evening sir.
I had a speeding ticket (4pt) issued on july.2018. And one more ticket was issued after
5 month of this speeding ticket.
I took my ddc class on jan.8.2019. That means i took my class within 18 months after i got the speeding ticket. I found guilty for this ticket on aug.2020. My question is ..
1. will my ddc class will help me for this speeding ticket that i took on jan.2019?
2. Since it was guilty after over 18 months…will it be count with other ticket that was issued after 5 months of this speeding ticket?
Usually i heard if a ticket found guilty after 18 months of issued date, it never count with other ticket.
Thank you sir.🙏

Shaharyar Khan,
You need to read this article titled "How Long Does A NY Traffic Ticket Stay On My Driving Record?" for answer to your questions.

Got ticket for disobeying the traffic control sign (missed new no left turn sign) . Paid ticket on- line , but still have 2 points on my driver licenses. How to get rid of the points?
Thank you
Given that you already pled guilty, the only way to lessen your point total is by taking a NYS Driver's Safety Class.
Matthew Weiss
How does Tlc in newyork review the point? Do they check just your points(18 months) or the record(4 years )?
Read this article that I wrote entitled https://nytrafficticket.com/how-new-york-traffic-tickets-affect-a-taxi-limousine-tlc-license/">How New York Traffic Tickets Affect A Taxi & Limousine (TLC) License.

I had a ticket for failed to stop on traffic light signal. 80-13(a)3(vii). And TLC has sent me a summon. Advice me what should I do. And do u wok for TLC summons?
We do not fight TLC tickets but you can find an experienced TLC representative at the TLC court. You should plead not guilty to both tickets as this is the only way to possibly obtain a more favorable outcome.
Matthew Weiss
I appreciate your research.
Dan Stein,
The post clearly states: "The NYS Driver Safety Class does not technically remove the conviction." In any event, I have changed
"remove" to "deduct" in the post so it is clearer. Thank you for your suggestion.
Matthew Weiss
I had a reply (thanks for that) from you( I cannot answer this question without knowing the date of offense for your 4-point speeding ticket.)
for the question bellow: the date of offense of my 4 points was Nov.17.2015. Please reply.
Hello! How are you sir?
I had a speeding ticket (8 points) on Feb.2015. And I found guilty for 6 points on Feb.2016. And I have a upcoming hearing date for another speeding (4 point) ticket on may.2017. If I found guilty on this ticket for 4 point ,is it going to add with the last ticket which I was guilty for 6 points. My last Defensive Driving course was taken on January. 2015.
Md A Rahman,
Because your Nov 2015, 4-point speeding ticket was issued within 18-months of your prior Feb 2015 6-point speeding ticket, the two convictions would be added together to give you a total of 10 points. The fact that you were convicted much later (May 2017) is irrelevant. The dates of the offense are what are controlling for purposes of calculating DMV points.

It's deceiving to use the term "remove" points when in reality nothing is removed. That's why the DMV's literature uses the word "reduce" which is more accurate.
Dan Stein,
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I'm a little insulted that you would use the verb "deceive" when describing my article. Like my the 100s of other articles which I have researched, written and published, it is intended solely to help NY motorist understand the various issues relating to their right to driving. With that said you are right that technically, the points technically are not "removed" by the DMV class (you actually get a reduction of 4).
Matthew Weiss
1st speeding ticket in 15years, no other moving violations. In NYC ,ticket issued for going 50 on a 30mph off ramp.
Have a clean CDL. Concerned about points.
Not sure what'she the best course . Plead guilty on line and play fine.
2) go to court plead guilty ask for reduction in points if that is done.
3) contest ticket ,no deposition by officer issued. If found guilty,pay fine and then ask for point reduction. Being aware will loose day of work for court appearencephalitis.
What is advisable sir. Thank you. B.Bell
Bruce W Bell,
You should plead not guilty as this is the only way to possibly obtain a more favorable result. This carries 4 points and can adversely affect your insurance rates. Given your otherwise clean record, you likely can get this negotiated down to a less serious charge. If you cannot or do not want to travel to the court, then you can retain a NY traffic ticket lawyer to appear for you.
Good luck!

Disney's bid to engineer an all-time global box office record and usurp Avatar's nine-year mark by doubling the theatre count of Avengers: Endgame in North America may fall short as the tentpole mustered $7.5m worldwide over the weekend.
Not content with owning the record-holder Avatar since it acquired the entertainment assets of 21st Century Fox, Disney brass want its Marvel Studio superhero saga to overtake the $2.788bn global bar set by Jim Cameron's juggernaut in 2010.
However, despite compliant coverage in the Hollywood trade press, that may now be a mission too far even for the world's elite superhero team.
Weekend box office included $5.5m in North America and propelled Endgame to $2.761bn worldwide – still a considerable $26m behind Avatar at this very late stage in Endgame's run (it launched on April 26). And as Spider-Man: Far From Home prepares to swing into action in North America on Tuesday (July 2), Disney may struggle to accomplish its task if it is hoping on a North Americasn surge to do so.
That is because a sneak preview of Far From Home as one of the sweeteners in the relaunched version of Endgame will immediately lose its currency once Spidey hits the July Fourth holiday runway in two days' time. Studio brass are well aware that fanboys are completists and inserted the Far From Home footage as one of two DVD extra-style bonuses alongside 18 seconds of extra footage, and an intro to Endgame by one of its directors, Anthony Russo.
North American fans eager to part with their money a second, third or fourth time obliged to some extent and Endgame's North American ploy was good enough to force it back into the top ten after vaulting six places to number seven. Disney may try something else to get Endgame past the line, however with Far From Home now the new international box office champion, it could be that all eyes have turned away from the Avengers and towards the latest chapter in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
As of June 30, Endgame ranks as the second highest North American, international, and global release in history. It stands a chance of overtaking Avatar globally but not internationally (Endgame has grossed $1.92bn compared to Avatar's $2.027bn). The film's $841.3m North American running total puts it well ahead of Avatar's $760.5m final gross, although Star Wars: The Force Awakens remains the runaway North American box office champion on $936.7m.
Whatever happens, Endgame will remain behind Avatar when the latter's numbers are adjusted for inflation: North America $878m (based on Avatar's final first run total of $749m), international $2.3787bn, and worldwide $3.27bn.

Beaches close fairly regularly here in Hawaii while tiger sharks measuring up to fifteen feet cruise on through. When waters are murky, best forego the swim. Plenty else to do. My own shark sightings have invariably occurred at this, my favorite beach – though not today. Feeling the ocean tells me it's safe to swim, but first I bide my time, warming my fully clothed body in the brilliant sunshine while visitors from colder climes run around in bikinis. Mauna Kea is about as protected a bay as you'll find on the Big Island, and due to restricted public access (best arrive early to secure a parking spot), never crowded. Beginning of the week on a windy day and it's mostly tourists – young families with grandparents in tow. A lithe towhead of a girl about eight picks every beach morning glory blossom in sight. She's making a lei, and raises her hands to me the Observer in proud demonstration. I haven't the heart to tell her that her blossoms will all be wilted within the hour. Everybody looks happy, and why not? The beauty of the place is staggering.
Offshore winds pick up out of nowhere like tramps in the night. Hawaii's seasonal shifts are not at all like New England's – where a nighttime chill in the fall air will by morning produce a palette of colors as far from off-the-rack as bouillabaisse is to Campbell's soup. Changing seasons here are far less dramatic – one must watch the ocean, be aware of the tides, the color and clarity of seawater; direction of wind. Here on the north shore, one is less inclined to sleep with windows open in order to ward off ill health. Degrees of dampness vary tremendously, and the night air can leave one with cricks in the neck and shoulders during colder months.
Today the ocean is a turquoise jewel, a sparkling crystal of invitation. Fins and mask in hand, I wade in. The first wave fails to render me breathless – a sure sign that winter has passed for good, if fledging cardinals and mejiro birds fail to jog the memory. The ocean never lies. Stroking out into deep water, the bay once shared with scattered others becomes mine alone, and I soon discover why. An offshore wind whooshes into my ears on a turn, and I subsequently notice a subtle underwater silt cloud while reflexively surfacing to check my mask for fog. Experience has shown me I am still safe, but I won't swim back across the length of the bay today. Calmly I complete my single lap, end to end, tucking into the coral reef for a peek only to discover it has created its own little torrid environment. I quickly turn, roll onto my back and kick my way back to shore, lungs inspiring the bright cloudless atmosphere above. It takes awhile, but I don't panic the way I did when first caught unaware in similar conditions. Fear burns up energy reserves, and fighting the sea is never wise.
Still and all, I've had my day – nothing trumps the freedom this elicits, save free-falling into azure sky before a parachute opens. And this is only conjecture on my part, for I've never been skydiving. Nor will I regret, at life's end, never having done so. I recall years ago when moving from Hawaii to New Mexico, mourning the imminent loss of Big Blue. My dear friend Linda had lived in both places and gently remarked, "Yes, but in New Mexico, the ocean is the sky." At 8500 ft. elevation, this indeed proved to be true. Still I'd rather be swimming. Or sailing on, gazing at or floating in water. Maybe it's an ancient memory of gills, or perhaps it's because the body is over sixty percent water, much of which is saline. Like the fish out of water that I am, something always compels me to return to the sea.

Setting goals gives training direction to increase the chances of success. The SMART method of goal setting ensures that the goal is clearly defined and designed to make the goal-setter feel accountable.
SMART stands for Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic and Timeline:
S = Specific: Goals must be explained within specific parameters. Try to avoid vague descriptions like "I want to lose weight." Instead, describe how much weight you want to lose through a number or unit and most importantly, what methods you will use to reach your goal. A specific goal will sound more like this- "I want to decrease my waist circumference by two inches in two months through aerobic/ strength training (1hr per session and 4-5 days perweek) and a healthy balanced diet through nutritional tracking with MyPyramid.gov."
M = Measurable: If progress can't be measured, it's nearly impossible to know how close you are to achieving the goal. Take the guesswork out and schedule a day every week to measure progress through methods such as body circumference and skinfold measurements. If you want to monitor a loss of two inches from the waist, mini goals must be set on a weekly basis. For example: "Every week, I will measure my waist circumference with a goal of -1 cm per week."
A = Attainable: Don't set a goal that's beyond your reach. Start with a goal that's fairly easy and then raise the bar little by little. If you lost a quarter inch in a little over a month, try to lose a full inch next time!
R = Realistic: Sometimes sacrifices must be made to reach a goal. Although watching TV and playing video games are good things to give up, sleep should not be one of them. A common healthy amount of sleep is about 7.5 hours +- 30 min. There is exactly 168 hours in one week and if sleep is factored in, only 115.5 hours remains to take care of other priorities such as eating, working and making time to train. Keep this in mind when trying to create realistic goals.
T = Timeline: Without a deadline, progress may occur so slowly that it feels like you're going nowhere. By setting a deadline, you will feel the right amount of pressure to stay motivated towards reaching your goal on time. Set an alarm on a phone of write it in a calendar/ planner as a reminder. "By the end of the month, I should be halfway there! I only have three weeks left!"
An exercise program is pointless if goals aren't set to ensure progress through deadlines. Follow these guidelines and you will be one giant step closer towards success!
An exercise program is pointless if goals aren't set to ensure progress through deadlines. Follow these guidelines and you will be one giant step closer towards success!

We got back from Portland last week. It was beautiful, the people were nice but the homes were expensive! My house w/no basement was about $265k. From what I hear, if you move beyond the 1hr commute range things get more reasonable, but I could not drive that. So pending any other news from work, it looks like we will be staying in Columbus for a while.
Also, I noticed that I have not mentioned my Java & Robotics Book with Apress. Well, it's true, I am writing a book on the two subjects. Tonight I will turn in Chapter 5. It's scheduled to be due by June 1, so far I am on track with it and I start to get into the really cool chapters today with Speech.
Emily is registering for classes today at Columbus State. She will start this summer and soon will be on her way to her degree.
In other news my mother is retiring this summer. Jen is getting her MBA. Dad is building his house. Emm's folks will be coming to visit soon!

Ratings & Reviews
These are the best straps I have ever used. Don't let the super low cost, and generic label fool you. These are the perfect length. Meaning, they are a bit shorter than most of the more expensive ones. In my opinion most traditional straps have about 3 inches of excessive material that just gets in the way and complicates the setup. These quickly break in and are very easy to get used to and use well.
Straps should be longer.
if you are using lifting straps these are the best for the money there great feels good with the padding so it dont cut into your wrist i highly recommended this product
Just received these great design nice addition of the padding
loved iit................................................................................................................................................................................................
Perfect! I'd been lacking something to go heavy on deadlifts and rows and other pulling movements. I didn't want excuses like, "My grip isn't strong enough!" And the padded part is a bonus. You don't even feel it!
I've had these for about a year and I've used them at least 2-3 weeks. They're just now finally starting to tear so I've reordered new ones but highly recommend especially for the price.
These straps are good on lighter lifts I felt like on my heavier ones the padding would bug me I had to toss em in the trash yesterday and drop the weight just to get my work out done
Wore these on my last mad deadlift. Other straps cut into me and bruised and scraped my wrist. The padding on these are phenomenal; just the right amount of cushion. I have recommended to others as well as letting them try them. They all agree as well.
These were my first pair of lifting straps. They are comfortable and work as they should. As for my use of lifting straps all together I would say that I will own a pair of Versa Grips very soon.
Straps aren't very long. Makes using them difficult.
I purchased these and 2 other sets of straps....mostly so friends could try them out and also because this was my first time ever using them and wanted to try different ones. Of the 3 sets I purchased, these are my favorite. They fit my wrist perfect. The other 2 sets of straps, the padding kept me from tightening the strap to my comfort. My lifting buddy also liked these the best and wants to buy a set for herself now. These are also extremely reasonably priced. I have only been using them for 2 weeks, so I cannot comment on durability and how they react to being washed. I highly recommend.
Hey TeamSS. I have been using these for my phase 2.1 training program whenever the strength of my grip prevents me from overloading the muscles I am focusing on in an exercise. The padding makes them extra comfy. Plus it's always a status symbol to have B on them!
Really helpful when comes to pull, I recommend👍🏻

Orleans Finger
Interviewer: Samuel S. Taylor
Subject: Ex-slavery
[May 11 1938]
Person Interviewed: Orleans Finger [TR: In text of interview, Orleana]
Negro (Apparently octoroon or quadroon)
Address: 2804 West Fifteenth Street, Little Rock, Arkansas.
Occupation: Formerly field hand and housekeeper
Age: 79
[TR: Personal information moved from bottom of first page.]
Birth, Family, and Master
"I was born in Mississippi in Tippa County not far from the edge of
Tennessee. I wasn't raised in Arkansas, but all my children was raised
here. I really don't know just where in Tippa county I was born. My
mother's name was Ann Toler. Toler was my step father. My real father, I
don't know. My mother never told me nothin' bout him and I don't know
that; I can't tell what I don't know.
"My grandfather on my mother's side was Captain Ellis. That is the one
come after me when I was small to carry me back to my folks. I didn't
know him, and I said 'I don't want to go 'way with them strange
Niggers'. He's dead now. They're all dead long ago. I have got children
over fifty years old myself. I am the mother of nine children--three of
them living. One of the living ones is Arthur Finger. He lives in St.
Louis. I expected to hear from him today, but didn't. Cornelius Finger.
(He is a brownskin boy, spare made), lives in Palestine, Arkansas, near
Forrest City. Arthur is my baby boy. Elmira was my baby girl. She's the
one you met. She's married and has children of her own.
"Captain Ellis' wife was named Minerva. She was my mother's mother.
She's been dead years. I got children older than she was when she died.
She died in Mississippi. I got a cousin named Molly Spight. She's dead.
My mother's sister was named Emmaline; she is dead now too.
"My mother was colored. I don't know nothin' about my father, and my
mother never taught me nothin' 'bout him.
"My step father and mother were both field hands. They worked in the
"I don't know just when I was born, but I am just sure that it was
before the war. I remember hearing people talk about things in the war.
"My mother's master was named Whitely, I think, because she was named
Whitley before she married.
"I have been married three times. The first man I married was 'Lijah
Gibbs. The second time I married, I married Joe Finger. The third time I
married Will Reese. He warn't no husband at all. They're all dead. Folks
always called me Finger after my second husband died, because I didn't
live with my third husband long.
"They had log houses. You would never see no brick chimney nor nothing
of that kind. The logs were notched down and kinda kivered flat--no roof
like now. They might have rafters on them, but the top was almost flat.
Wouldn't be any steep like they is now. In them times they wouldn't have
many rooms. Sometimes they would have two. They wouldn't have so many
windows. Just old dirt chimneys. They'd take and dig a hole and stick
sticks up in it. Then they'd make up the dirt and put water in it and
pull grass and mix it in the dirt. They'd build a frame on the sticks
and then put the mud on. The chimney couldn't catch fire till the house
got old and the mud would fall off. When it got old and the mud got to
fallin off, then they would be a fire. I've seen that since I been in
"Sometimes they would get big rocks and put them inside the fireplace to
take the place of bricks. You could get rocks in the forest.
"Used to have ropes and they would cord the bed stead. The cords would
act in place of springs. When you move you would have a heap of trouble
because all that would have to be undone and done up again. You have to
take the cords out and them put it together again. The cords would be
run through the sides of the bed and stuck in with pegs.
"They used to have spinning wheels and looms. They made clothes and they
made the cloth for the clothes and they spun the thread they made the
cloth our of. They'd card and spin the thread. There's lots of other
things I can't remember.
War Memories
"The Yankess used to come in and have the people cook for them. They'd
kill chickens and geese and things. The old people used to take their
horses out and tie them out in the woods--hiding them out to keep the
Yankees from getting them. The Yankees would ride up, take a good horse
and leave the old worn-out one.
"There never was any fighting round where I lived. None of my folks was
soldiers in the war.
Right After the War
"I don't remember just what my folks did right after the war. They were
field hands and I guess they did that. My mother worked in the field
that's all I know.
Life Since the War
"I have been in Arkansas a long time. I have been here ever since I left
Mississippi. My first marriage was in Mississippi. The second and last
ones was in Arkansas--Forrest City. My second husband had been dead
since 1921. I don't know that I count Reese. We married in June and
separated in September. He's dead now, and I don't hold nothin' against
"I am not able to work now. I do a little 'round the house and dig a
little in the garden. I haven't worked in the field since way before
1921. I don't get no help at all from the Welfare. My daughter does what
she can for me. I always have lived before I ever heard about the old
age pension and I suppose God will take care of me yet somehow.
Cured by Prayer
"I'm puny and no'count. Aint able to do much. But I was crippled. I had
a hurting in my leg and I couldn't walk without a stick. Finally, one
day I went to go out and pick some turnips. I was visiting my son in
Palestine. My leg hurt so bad that I talked to the Lord about it. And it
seemed to me, he said 'Put down your stick.' I put it down and I aint
used it since. I put it down right thar and I aint used it since. God is
a momentary God. God knowed what I wanted and he said, 'Put down that
sick,' and I aint been crippled since. It done me so much good. Looks
like to me when I get to talking about the Lord, aint nobody a stranger
to me.
"I know I been converted but that made me stronger. My son is a siner.
He knowed about how I was crippled. He said you ought use your stick. He
didn't know what to think about it. Young folks don't believe because
they aint had no experience with prayer and they don't know what can
"I done told you all I know. I don't want to tell you anything I don't
know. If you don't know nothing, it is best to say you don't."
Everything which Orleana Finger states has the earmarks of being true.
There are a great many things which she does not state which I believe
that she could state if she wished. She evidently has a long list of
things which she things should be unmentioned. She has two magic phrases
with which she dismisses all subjects which she does not wich to
"I don't remember that."
"I better quit talking now before I start lying."

Two decades of patience paying off for Dickie
It's been a long and unpredictable two decades for John Dickie and the Catherine The Great family, but the light is finally at the end of the tunnel.
In the form of Tricky Ric, he and good friend Richard Bright have themselves an exciting talent.
The three-year-old son of siring sensation Muscle Hill and Dream Vacation mare, Great Getaway, was a run-away winner at Alexandra Park on Friday night.
Dickie and his son, Josh, who he trains in partnership with, have high hopes for the speedy trotter.
"We've always liked him from day one, really," said John.
"He's a very small, compact horse and because of that he wasn't quite strong enough to go at two.
"We gave him a couple of starts but he got to the stage where he had done enough so we put him aside.
"But he's developed in to a nice wee horse now and he's really got a good turn of foot."
The $100,000 New Zealand Trotting Derby at Addington on April 5 is firmly on their radar.
"We're going to try him against the better ones.
"He hasn't beaten a lot just yet, so we'll give him a few more starts in a better grade and then hopefully head south for the Derby."
The name Tricky Ric comes from Dickie and Bright's association with The Oaks Stud in Cambridge.
"We keep Great Getaway at The Oaks and [General Manager] Rick Williams is Richard's best mate.
"I got to name the first one out of the mare (All American), and Richard really wanted to name a horse after Rick.
"Rick loves having her and her foals there.
"He jokes that when he goes out to the weanling paddock, the ones that can't run faster than the trotters are gotten rid of."
Dickie and Bright are counting their blessings to have a horse by Muscle Hill, who has ascended to unprecedented worldwide dominance as a sire in the ensuing four years.
"You can't get the semen down here anymore. Well, Emilio Rosati was telling me at the sales that he can, but he has to pay $40,000 a service, which is getting right up there.
"It's a big head start having a horse by him."
For Dickie it's been a long 21 years since he purchased Catherine The Great as a young broodmare.
"I had Last Sunset at the time and he was only a yearling, but I knew he was very, very smart.
"So, I paid $25,000 plus GST for her out of the calendar, where she was advertised for sale by National Bloodstock.
"She was in foal to Britewell at the time, but ended up losing that foal."
That would become a common theme over the next six years with her next nine serves not bearing any foals.
"She would get to six or seven months but couldn't carry them full term.
"I did three embryo transfers, which was costing $5,000 every year. By the sixth year I sent her to the South Island and let Bruce Taylor and Nevele R Stud try his luck.
"I gave up on her actually, but he said to me he would keep trying and, if he was successful, I would then let him try and breed one out of her.
"We ended up getting an embryo foal, which was Real Deal Yankee ($175,572), and then straight away the next year he got a filly (Great Getaway).
"I really wanted to keep going with the family so one day when I was down at the pub talking to Richard, he said offer him $30,000 and see if he takes it."
A deal was done and Great Getaway would go on to win 10 races and over $117,000 for the pair.
As a mum she has left the promising All American, who has won three of 12, Tricky Ric, and has just foaled to Father Patrick after a couple of misses using Love You frozen semen.
For Dickie, it's a great relief to finally be seeing the fruits of his patience.
On another note, he is also happy to be back on his feet after a recent medical incident that was initially thought to be a stroke.
"I was showing all the symptoms of a minor stroke, but it turned out to be related to an ongoing blood condition I have.
"My system doesn't break down iron like it should and I periodically get 400 mls of blood taken out because the levels get high.
"A few Mondays back I was walking out of the tractor shed first thing in the morning when all of a sudden I felt giddy."
He's been advised to stay off alcohol and change is diet, but is otherwise ok.
"It turns out my vitals were very good.
"I had tiredness and aching bones, which I thought was just a sign of getting bloody old, but it was actually this condition."

- "He was a typical enough Barrayaran: dark haired, brown eyed, with an olive complexion made pale by his months in space. His regular features reminded Miles a bit of his cousin Ivan at the same feckless age. An extensive bruise around one eye was fading, turning yellowish green. His uniform shirt was open at the throat, sleeves rolled up. Some paling, irregular pink scars zigzagged over his exposed skin, marking him as a victim of the Sergyaran worm plague of some years back; he had evidently grown up, or at least been resident, on Barrayar's new colony planet during that difficult period before the oral vermicides had been perfected."
- ―Miles meets Corbeau[src]
Ensign Dmitri Corbeau was a junior pilot officer abord the Barrayaran Imperial military ship, the Prince Xav. A Sergyaran, but not a native one, he and his family emigrated there when he was five years old. At some point, he became one of the victims of the infamous Sergyaran worm plague; the scars from his encounter and the surgical removal of the worms crossed his arms and torso.
He joined the Barrayaran Imperial Service on a five year hitch, and they trained him as a jump pilot.
When the Prince Xav escorted a Komarran trade fleet to Quaddiespace, Dmitri met and fell in love with a quaddie woman named Garnet Five. This was not well received by his fellow crewmembers on the Prince Xav; at least one of them called him "mutie lover" to his face.
The quaddies were not initially inclined to accept his request to live with them, but their opinion of him changed after he helped to save Graf Station from a bioplague. As a consequence, Miles Vorkosigan appointed him to be Barrayar's full time diplomatic consul in Quaddiespace.

Borgeson's hat-trick helps as Saffron Walden women hit sad Harpenden rivals for six
PUBLISHED: 16:00 31 January 2018
Saffron Walden's women went goal crazy in their latest East and Five Counties League outings at the weekend.
The first team took on Division Two South West rivals Harpenden and were 2-0 up inside 10 minutes.
Georgia Bozianu combined with Suzanne Holmes to set up Georgina Turtle at the left post for the opener, with Evie Borgeson finishing off a good team move for the second.
Walden had to be patient in their build-up play from the back as Harpenden's defence dug in, but Stef Hollidge beat her marker and found Turtle on the left and her cross into the D was met by Borgeson, who pushed the ball into the corner of the net.
Walden made it 4-0 before half time with a well-worked short corner routine as the ball was slipped to Nia Evans on the right and her pass was left by Liz Egan for Borgeson to sweep home.
The second period was not as convincing, but Walden were gifted a fifth thanks to an own goal and sealed a 6-0 win when Egan fired home a rebound after a corner strike was saved.
The sixth team ran riot in their Division Five meeting with Broxbourne fifths, romping to a 10-0 victory.
Chris Price and Eve Elilio scored twice each, with Catherine Patten and Jade Mannix helping themselves to hat-tricks.
Daisy Collett took the player of the match award for a relentless performance in midfield.
The men's fifth team defeated Chelmsford 2-1 in Division Seven, while the sevenths beat Maldon Academy by the same scoreline in Division Eight.
But the news was not so good for the first team, as they suffered back-to-back losses in their weekend double-header in East Premier A.
They made visitors Bedford work hard for a 4-2 win on Saturday, with Matt Wells and Morgan Thomas on target.
Matt Abraham and Ben Bradnam made their debuts on Sunday as Walden took the lead against leaders St Albans, with a Ben Taplin goal.
But tired legs eventually took their toll and a young Walden side committed some individual errors on their way to a 5-1 defeat.
The under-14 boys went down 8-1 against Braintree in their Mercian League meeting.
Understrength Walden fell behind early on and top scorer Wilkinson's reply was little consolation ahead of their last-16 trip to Oxford Hawks.
