Shane Bourne To Host Logie Awards...
TV actor Shane Bourne will host the 2011 Logie Awards. In a statement announcing who would be the host, TV Week said Bourne "promises to deliver what he does best" at the 53rd Annual Logie Awards on May 1 at Melbourne's Crown Entertainment Complex. "I am genuinely thrilled to be involved in TV's night of nights," Bourne said. "It's an honour to be following in the footsteps of such television luminaries as Bert Newton et al - and the timing couldn't be better. "I've always enjoyed myself immensely at the Logies, and since the chances of a nomination coming my way this year look pretty slim, I figure it's not a bad way of making sure I score an invitation." Bourne currently stars in the Seven Network drama series City Homicide, but is also known for his comedic roles. Most recently, he hosted the popular show Thank God You're Here and was a regular on Hey Hey It's Saturday for many years. Thank God You're Here won a Silver Logie for most outstanding comedy in 2007. Bourne was also nominated for the most outstanding actor Logie in 2003 for his leading role in medical drama MDA. This year's Logie nominees will be revealed on April 3. Critics are at the read to praise or pan Bourne. Will Twitter-Gate strike again at Crown Casino. Don't blink!

Microfiber Car Detailing Cloths
Microfiber is a quality fabric that combines polyester and polyamide material. The polyester gives the cloth more strength and durability. Microfiber cloths are softer, finer and more absorbent than most conventional cloths. The polyamide material helps the cloth to absorb more weight in moisture as well. The best part about microfiber cloths is that they do not contribute to swirl marks. There is nothing more frustrating than seeing a wax blemish on your paint. Microfiber cloths are safe enough to use on the most delicate car finishes, and they don't contribute to blemishes and aren't expensive. They are one of the best car detailing products available in East Montpelier, VT
Terry Cloth Towels
The advent of microfiber rags has made terry towels obsolete. Our professional car detailing shops all use microfiber rags rather than terry clothes. Terry clothes are cotton material and are not as soft as microfiber towels. Terry clothes are not very absorbent and leave a lot of lint behind. This can lead to swirl marks on your vehicle. New clean terry cloth towels can usually be used for engines and wheels but for waxing your car; microfiber towels are your best bet.

Wortha Farm on the edge of Dartmoor....Selenium Toned
Gentlemen, another great start to this page! Thanks for sharing.
Michiel: I like both versions but I think I slightly prefer the one taken with the Pentax: it has such lovely pink/magenta tones! Nicely done.
Barry: another superb shot and rendering. At first I thought it was an aerial capture - it's not, is it? The clouds, the shadowed hills, the tree lines, the animals - it's a splendid composition.

Thank you Tom
You are right...I took it from the ground (I climbed up a Tor).
I agree with you Tom about the nicer colours from Michiels Pentax image (Presumably taken slightly later in the evening when the colours naturally become more intense)...I just preferred the composition of the Sony A7R shot a little bit more...They are both excellent at the end of the day
Thanks again Tom

My impression is that the Sony colors match the similar FoV crop of the Pentax. I prefer the *colors* of the wider shot, but those are out of the frame on the narrower one.
Both are wonderful!

I just hope he had camera bearers for all that gear he had to haul out to that location to do that comparison.
I too like the appearance of the Pentax better but the differences as viewed on the net are both excellent and either would be keepers.

Pentax 645Z. Sony A7x. And others. The common thread is the great Sony sensors. Whatever camera system one prefers to use, as long as there's a Sony sensor in it, I'm thinking you're pretty good to go.
BTW, nice pics Michiel. Hope you're enjoying the 'Z'.

Michiel, I'm a old, overweight, biker type anymore..... the idea of carrying more than a a7x and a couple lenses in a small backpack with one lightweight tripod attached very far (unless there was beer and wings with a hockey game playing on a big screen at the end of a short walk ) does not sound like fun. I had a Mamiya 645 Pro system back in the film days with a half a dozen lenses in a Halliburton metal case and even in my 20's and 30's it was a load especially lugging a Bogen along with it.

Very nice Carl, I have that lens and actually like it better than my 70-400G when set from 550mm and lower but this lens lives on my a77II and I just can't justify putting the a7rII behind it instead. On the a77II it has the apc factor, a great AF system, and a much higher frame rate for BIF and wildlife.
I keep debating the #3 adapter and using the longer glass on the a7rII but as of right now I see my a7rII as a 90mm and under body until they offer something longer in E mount that makes more sense.
Those images do make this decision tougher

Here are two more recent seascapes - that is, shots from the deck of a rental home near Nanoose Bay, BC, Canada.

I can't stand the Zeiss 35mm f/2.8, I will tell you that the 35mm Zeiss f/2 found on the RX1 just destroys this lens, in everything in my eyes, the f/2 has more pop, more contrast, more character, and more MAGIC.
the Zeiss 35mm f/2.8 is a real yawner, I don't really get the 'hepkitty' look to the files, my signiture look. I know some love it, I don't, flat, dull, boring, uninspiring. I for one don't put
a lot of stock in this 'corner sharpness' argument. I do a lot of landscape stuff and it if soft corners weaken my images, my eyes don't really see it, as my images tend to draw you into the subject,
which I rarely put in the corners anyways.
My honest opinion is instead of spending the cash on the f/2.8, either step up to the Distagon f/1.4 or score a Rx1. If budget is a concern then get the 'great 28', the cheapo Sony 28mm f/2 prime and save some cash and yet gain some character. Of course this is subjective, and just my opinion.
Anyways, here are a few shots with the lens I dislike, the boring Zeiss 35mm f/2.8 on the Sony A7.

I can probably see what you mean in the first shot but I like the second a lot and it certainly doesn't look "flat" or "dull" to me.
Have you tried shooting it side by side on the same subject with your RX1 to pinpoint the exact difference you see between the two lenses?

Many thanks Pieter
Basically just a slightly derogatory term used mostly by the Cornish for tourist and more recently a incomer (which obviously applies to myself). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emmet_(Cornish)
Likewise I liked Lucille's second shot very much...IMHO I would have liked it even more with a slight crop on the right hand side losing the distracting highlights, otherwise excellent.
Wonderfull shots Tom!

You couldnt have asked for a better quality of lighting than those louring skies looming over both of those seascapes...Excellent.

Farewell Sharon
I still can't believe it but I wanted to say how incredible a person, Sharon Argwings-Kodhek, our Managing Trustee (Kenya), always will be remembered as. Sharon passed away after a long battle with Lupus, but not before she devoted herself to helping others, and so many others! This article explains her battle.
Lupus is an autoimmune disease that can affect various parts of the body, including the skin, joints, heart, lungs, blood, kidneys and brain. Normally the body's immune system makes proteins called antibodies, to protect the body against viruses, bacteria, and other foreign materials, but in an autoimmune disorder like lupus, the immune system cannot tell the difference between foreign substances and its own cells and tissues and directs attacks against itself causing primarily inflammation, pain, heat, redness, swelling and loss of function, internally and externally.
For most, lupus is a mild disease, for others, like Sharon, it can devastate. Yet despite everything, Sharon still found the time to give vital assistance to AVIF and our volunteers, establish lupus support groups and foundations and educate thousands. Through it all, she also brought up 2 incredible children, More and Amani.
I met Sharon 'virtually' in 2006 through a mutual friend and she instantly started to throw support my way, offering advice in how we could establish our network, providing support to volunteers, meeting them, offering orientations and much much more. AVIF has only grown into the global network it is because of the support and advice Sharon gave me all these years.
I will miss her so much. She was one of those special friends that you could always rely on regardless of the distance or months or years that go inbetween "catch-ups". I just can't believe yet that I won't be able to simply Skype her or send a text but I am so proud to have known her for even such a small part of her short life. Rest In Peace now, my friend and know that thanks to you, thousands can get the treatment they need, know that Amani, too, will grow up to be a strong, intelligent woman, almost as incredible as your son, almost as incredible as You xxx
And finally some good news
"I'm an optimist. I believe in humanity's ingenuity. Even on the path of the hard way, I think we'll prevail. We'll scramble and find solutions. Yet the cost will be far higher a decade or two from now than it would be if we started today. And the scars will run deeper, in species lost, in acidified seas, in forests chopped or burned down, in climate-created famines and pestilence, in wars and conflicts born of resource scarcity." Ramez Naam, Computer Scientist
From :
The Limits of the Earth — Part 2: Expanding the Limits
This is a brilliant article that needs sharing. I've long been a believer that a negative "doomed for disaster" attitude to climate change will never inspire even the least apathetic of us. Fortunately we have evolution on our side and the inimitable human spirit for progress, discovery and of course innovation.
Here are three of many such innovations we should be proud of, but should also be using more of .. and Now!
".. with continued improvement in desalination technology, we can have access to water supplies many times larger than any projected human need."
Improvements in efficiency, such as Radial Deionization are greatly bringing down the cost. Don't forget the planet is 70% water. If we can crack that, everything else comes easy.
Consider the sun, "which strikes the Earth with roughly 5,000 times as much energy as we consume from all sources combined" as photons. "..that energy is so vast that solar panels on less than 0.3% of the Earth's land area would supply many times more energy than humanity needs for the next few decades."
"On current pace, by 2025, solar power will be cheaper than electricity from coal or natural gas across the large majority of the planet, including China, India, and most of the developing world, where energy use is rising fastest". Solar power itself can rocket a developing country's economic development. SolarAid have been pushing this process for years but much more serious investment is needed at government level.
Deforestation MUST be halted too. Converting forest into farm and grazing land has many major hidden costs. "Since 1950, a full 60% of the world's tropical rainforests have been destroyed". The planet's forests are the world's lungs. Look at the differences today between Kenya and northern Brazil! Forests ".. consume CO2 from the atmosphere, converting it into wood and leaf (around 3.7 trillion tons of CO2) — equivalent to nearly a century of human emissions. They emit a quarter of the oxygen that feeds all other animal life on earth, including humans. They provide a safe haven for millions of species found nowhere else. ..And, through a process called evapotranspiration, forests bring rain to areas downwind of them. Tropical rainforests alone produce around 20% of the world's oxygen and 30% of the world's fresh water. Human activity that damages them has wide reaching effects."
For population, the real deciding factor is education for more women. I posted in 2011 about the Brazilian women in the headlines as National Geographic's Cynthia Gorney highlighted their incredible ability to lower the entire country's fertility rate.
".. between 2050 and 2100, something almost unprecedented in the history of the world is likely to occur" writes Naam. "The world's population is likely to plateau between 9 and 10 billion people. And after that, so long as wealth and education continue to rise, the world's population is likely to drop."
So .. "On the one side, we have the pace at which we're consuming finite resources and warming and polluting the planet — a trend with disastrous consequences should it continue unchecked. On the other side, we have our vigorous progress in innovating to tap more efficiently and cleanly into a truly enormous supply of fundamental natural resources the planet provides." I know which side I'm rooting for.
Hannah joins the Sadili Oval Academy in Lang'ata next month, on the edge of the Kibera slum area of Nairobi. Their latest newsletter is here highlighting all the incredible work they do, under the leadership of the fabulous Liz Odera (Dr).
The Academy does so much more than just sport. They recently help a Girls Power Sports Day empowering girls.
Sadili's Wishlist is long but anything you can help with please get in touch with us:
- basic sports supplies; shoes, balls, strings, grips, and general kitting.
- donations for building a greenhouse to increase the Academy's sustainable foodsource
- volunteers with expertise in staff training, marketing, online advertising, sports coaching (tennis, basketball, soccer, swimming and rugby), teaching (English, Math, Sciences, music, computer studies, art and reading), video and blog creation, event organisation......
Sadili "..continue to dream of a computer lab, complete with internet facilities, to improve learning for the children, and also give them a chance to feel that they are part of a bigger world." Please help if you can, even if its just sharing this with friends and family.

Happy New Tibetan Year 2140
Today is the most important day of the year for Tibetans; Losar the start of the New Year 2140 "Tashi-de-leh!!"
On the first day of New Year, Tibetans get up very early, take a bath with starwater (water left out overnight to be "cleansed by starlight"). They wear new clothes and worship the gods in their households, offering them special foods known as torma.
Tibetans then visit monasteries and shrines to make offerings and all the family members gather together to have special New Year meals with Kapse (a cake) and a warm alcoholic drink called chang. Houses are decorated with flour paintings of the sun and the moon. Offerings are made to the moon for a happy and prosperous life.
It is tradition that if you have important things to do then you must do them today. So Tashi sent us pictures of the children and hopes that they will have great result for this year.
Her students now total 74, most of them farmers and nomads. Tashi thanks our donors for their help which bought books, pens and supplies as well as cookies and food for Losar. They were treated with drinks of hot sweet tea to beat the cold. Weather in Nyemo over Winter is often bitterly cold winds and very dry. There is not so much celebration these days but quiet prayer and quality time spent with family.
Other news
- Our long-term volunteers Nick & Charlie literally MOVED to Kenya last week to set up a project centre in Kisumu with a US organisation. They will be a port of call for all future AVIF volunteers, acting as liaisons and sharing their wide knowledge of Kenya.
- I would also like to thank all donors for their support towards Amazonart's project work in Brazil, raising over £500 in the last few weeks on Justgiving. Various concerts are being held in both London, UK and in Brazil with proceeds going to bring music and workshops to the riberinho communities around the islands. Further info on the website. Obrigado a todos vocês!

What's the worst that could happen if you're lying in the back seat of the car on a road trip with your feet hanging out the window? Well there are a lot of things, but this guy doesn't want any of them to happen to you.

Inexperienced management who do not have much if any experience.
Advice to Management
Give potential managers some decent training especially in communication skills.
I worked at Sigma-Aldrich full-time
Great people. It's a great place for a career transition, since they will consider technical people for sales and marketing jobs. It's a stable place to work.
Not much room to move up within the company. Even if you get promoted you're lucky to get a 3% raise, which isn't commensurate with new responsibilities. They don't pay well. Management often doesn't want to listen to what subordinates have to say.
Advice to Management
Look for ways to put a real career development program in place so you don't continue to lose talent.

I worked at Sigma-Aldrich (Less than a year)
good accommodation facilities, engaging stay, but very dull in using technology.
Less pay, no job guarantee, very slow decision-making process
Advice to Management
Employ more talented people
Helpful (1)
Great group of people in all divisions and departments that I worked with!
A little behind the times with some of their systems and processes, however they are looking to catch up quickly.
I worked at Sigma-Aldrich full-time (More than 5 years)
Very stable company. Respectful environment. Excellent processes are in place that are being followed.
Very little opportunity for growth for entry level and mid career people. Company tends to bring in people from outside for highly desired positions instead of promothing from within.
Advice to Management
Grow your own talent.
I have been working at Sigma-Aldrich full-time
Nice benefits for the place. Large company and opportunity to move around if you are qualified. With lots of locations and since they have been bought out now becoming MillporeSigma there are even more opportunity and places you can move to.
Some positions you do have to work weekend and or nights. The pay is average not too high or low. There is a high turnover rate for night employees. And if you are on nights it may take a long time to get on to days if you want it.
Advice to Management
There is definitively room for improvement. The need for making sure employees have all the items they need to get their jobs done needs some improvement. Some departments do need to shed some dead weight which would make a better company.
I have been working at Sigma-Aldrich full-time (More than 5 years)
Can develop and grow career and move within the company.
Raises are general 3%. Only decent raises are if move to diff groups
I have been working at Sigma-Aldrich full-time (More than 5 years)
Good work/life balance. Good team members. Good place to start career and grow.
Too cautious, not taking enough bold decisions on new products. Management prefers OEM and meeting short term targets rather than focus on long term innovation and productivity.
I have been working at Sigma-Aldrich full-time (More than a year)
The pay is great and Merk just purchased Sigma so per older employees, things are more employee focused. Management is very professional and approachable.
More paid time off would be great.

We went to Jasper Beach based on recommendations from some of the locals.It is an amazing strip piece of Beach - only a couple in the world like it! Gorgeous and peaceful this time of year! Definitely worth the stop!
We went to check out this beach on our Maine trip because of Trip Advisor reviews. This was pretty amazing to see and we enjoyed walking the rocky beach. Our dog didn't like it so much so we didn't make him walk to far on it! Loved listening to the sounds the waves made on the rocks and checking out... More
This is an opportunity to see a geological formation which is said to occur in only one other place on earth in japan. The rocks which make up the beach are rhyolite and have been polished by the constant wave action over thousands of years. The sound of the waves washing up on the rocks is almost musical at times.... More
I don't know that I've been on a beach completely comprised of tumbled stones in the pea to egg size. Each rock is very smooth and vary in color and composition. The beach itself is very steep and very entertaining in that its just so different from your typical sand or Acadia Granite shorelines. Too bad that the residents can't... More
This little Interesting beach is full of rocks, no sand very close to highway 92 below Machias port off highway 1. No overnight camping and nice to experience the tides and listening to the rocks wash with the tide.
Jasper Beach is composed entirely of rocks. Even the dune is made of rock. The music the water makes over the rocks is enchanting and well worth a trip to this beach.
We stopped here to have a picnic lunch and geocache on our way to Lubec for a couple of days of hiking. This beach reminds me of a beach that I went to in England many years ago - there was no sand! The pebbled beach is interesting and fun to just walk along and see the different stones that... More
Stopped at this beach on the way to Lubec. Really different as the beach is composed of small rocks that have been smoothed over by the constant surf of the ocean. As one walks along the beach the rocks become pebbles getting smaller and smaller. Worth the stop!!
What a great beach. Completely different from anything I have seen before, which is always fun. Best part for me- standing in the water and feeling the rocks brush past your legs with each wave that crashes onto the shore (no it does not hurt).
This is not a beach you will likely walk barefoot on (unless you have tough feet), but it is really cool. The beach is covered in beautiful rocks, not much sand. I wish we had brought chairs with us because it was a very serene beach, I would have liked to sit there longer.

Alas, Pierce Hawthorne shan't hound anyone at the Greendale Community College anymore.
After three seasons and the filming of almost the entire fourth, Chevy Chase is saying adieu to the NBC comedy Community.
The 69-year-old actor is exiting the show through a mutual agreement, effective immediately. The vast portion of the show's fourth season has already been filmed, but Chase will be absent for one or two episodes. There is no word as to whether the actor's parting will be written into the show, but the finale has already been filmed. So fear not, he is there at the end!
Chase's departure should not really come as a surprise considering he's been pouncing on the show for a while now. He has voiced his displeasure with the direction his character was assuming, and then he dropped the N-word on the show's set whilst criticizing a particular dialogue in a scene. Of course, then there is the conflict between Chase and Community's creator, Dan Harmon, which came complete with the leaking of an angry voice mail from the actor, which eventually cost Harmon his job. What happened to good old-fashioned arm wrestling? It used to solve all problems…
The show is scheduled to return on Feb. 7. Hopefully Chase's exit will usher in an era of peace on the set of the series.

Hi Guys, I need to build a bathroom cabinet, and would like to know which is the best material to use for the carcase? I'm thinking some sort of pre-finished plywood, but need recommedations. I am thinking of using poplar for the doors, as it is a solid wood, and takes paint well, as the cabinet will be painted. Any help is greatly appreciated! -- Dean -- "Don't give up the ship -- fight her 'till she sinks!" Capt James Lawrence USN |

If you're going to paint, poplar is as good as anything -- Gary, DeKalb Texas only 4 miles from the mill |

Greetings Dean: I would go exactly the route you're describing. That's the way I would do it if I was building it, especially with poplar for doors. Painted doors + painted carcase = beautiful cabinet…........ keep on keeping on…. -- Here in the South, we say "down the road a piece"...and , "it's over yonder".....!! |

So you guys are saying to use poplar for the carcase as well? I was thinking of using plywood, for stability and to keep cost down. But am open to using poplar. -- Dean -- "Don't give up the ship -- fight her 'till she sinks!" Capt James Lawrence USN |

I build a bathroom cabinet recently. I used 3/4" MDF for the carcase with glue and pocket screws. Used poplar for the face frame and doors. The whole carcase (and, of course, the doors) is painted white. It is a wall hanging cabinet, so I wasn't worried about standing water. For a floor mounted cabinet, I would use an exterior grade plywood or poplar for the base. My house iss about 30 years old, and all the cabinets are a combination of MDF and plywood. I am getting ready to build new cabinet doors throughout the house, starting with the bathrooms. All the painted doors will be poplar. Good luck, -- Doug, Bakersfield, CA - I measured twice, cut it twice, and it is still too short! |

Dean: No— I"m saying use plywood for the carcase and poplar for the doors. You would have to glue up a lot of poplar for the carcus, and you just cut the sides, bottom, and top from a sheet of 3/4" ply, with a plywood back. Solid doors, and you're ready to paint….............. -- Here in the South, we say "down the road a piece"...and , "it's over yonder".....!! |

Ok, sounds like poplar for the doors and face frame. Now for the carcase. MDF or plywood? This will be a lower cabinet, and will sit on a frame on the floor. Would MDF work, or should I use plywood? And if plywood, which one? Baltic Birch? As always, thanks! -- Dean -- "Don't give up the ship -- fight her 'till she sinks!" Capt James Lawrence USN |

If you are going to paint it white why not save yourself some trouble and use white melamine for the interior. That way the interior doesn't need finishing. Otherwise stick to what you originally mentioned and do prefinished ply. It's more money but makes a nicer box. I wouldn't use MDF, but that's just me. -- ~ Inspiring those who inspire me ~ |

Dean: I agree with kolwdwrkr: I don't think I would use MDF either, especially in a bathroom. too much humidity and moisture, especially from showers, etc. It might be ok, since you're painting, but I wouldn't chance it. Stick with plywood. I think you'll be better off in the long haul. MDF might swell over time. -- Here in the South, we say "down the road a piece"...and , "it's over yonder".....!! |

HiFiMAN RE-400
"Packaging and build: The packaging is minimal and exquisitely so. The extra tips filters and manual are behind the felt coated foam holding the earphones.

" I'm not great at writing reviews, but I'm bored right now and I thought I'd take the time to "honor" the RE0's. I've bought/sold/heard many IEM's in the past, stuff like: IE8, W3, PFE, SE530, TF10, X10 etc. Before the RE0's went on that $99 sale, I came to the conclusion that the W3's were the IEM's for me, X10 and SE530 came in a close second, but anyway, my point is, I was quite satisfied..." --koven

The windows are tinted but the tint is on the outside. The flakes are clear and don't seem to be making any difference to the tint when scrapped off.
Ford Territory Overview
Blazing new territory when first introduced in Australia and New Zealand in 2004, the Ford Territory seeks to be all vehicles to all people. Part SUV, with a hearty helping of sedan and a sprinkling of MPV, this crossover offered by Ford Australia became the second best-selling SUV in Australia a mere months after it launched. In 2005 it won Car of the Year and is now the best-selling SUV down under.
Its debut launched severals firsts for Australian cars. Hard to believe, but it was the first vehicle to offer both RWD and AWD, the first to come standard with side curtain airbags, and the first to feature Dynamic Stability Control. The Territory comes in three trim levels -- TX, TS, and Ghia, all with a 4.0-liter inline-6 engine. A 326-hp Turbo XR and Ghia Turbo were later introduced, and in 2008 a F6X Turbo will boost horsepower into the mid 300 range.
The Territory combines the rugged AWD system, high ride height and 18-inch alloy wheel styling of an SUV with the passenger versatility of an MPV and the suspension and handling of a family sedan. Configurable with either two or three rows, the Territory was designed to adapt to both city commutes and off-road adventures, easing the transition from weekday work to weekend fun.

A metronome is a tool usually used by musicians. It produces a beat with a variable tempo. The tool is very helpful in maintaining a particular tempo while practicing new songs. Now thanks to Metronome Online, musicians will no longer need a physical metronome beat counter to get that metronome beat.
Metronome Online is a free online tool. As its name suggests, the tool acts as an online metronome. This online metronome supports beat tempos ranging from 40 bpm (beats per minute) to 208 bpm.
The usage of the tool is very simple. All you have to do is click on the "On" button and then a number on the outer circle; these numbers represent the beat tempo. The "A440" button corresponds to the standard "˜A' (440 Hz) note tuning. The tool also comes in three different color themes: classic, cool, and fire. If your phone supports it, you can visit the tool's website through your smartphone and turn your phone into a portable metronome.
- A user friendly online tool.
- A must-bookmark site for musicians.
- Provides an online metronome with variable beat tempos.
- Can convert your phone into a portable metronome.

This is a lousy metronome, it doesn't even have a tap function :(

Canada vs. Brazil
Right now on TSN2.
4th quarter 50-50. |
Cool - thanks. To think I was watching shitty tennis on tsn1.
Don't get too excited.
It's been a pretty ugly game. |
Their 3rd quarter D was really good and they were making shats, getting on the offensive glass and getting to the line.
I haven't seen Canada score yet. Nice.
You jinxed them. :police:
Watching Carl English play gives me indigestion. |
Team Canada @ FIBA Americas
One game already played (69-57 loss to Brazil). We need a top 2 finish to get to Olympics and 3-5 finish for a llast cahnce qualification tourney next year.
UPCOMING GAMES (GROUP STAGE): Saturday 10:30 am vs Venezuela, TSN2 ----- End of group stage -Quarterfinal games TBD |
already on their way to a poor showing.
:( Why the fuck can\'t we get our best guys to play again???? |
i thought cory joseph looked pretty good last night. this team will be good in 5-6 years assuming we can get all of our top-flite players to play.
kabongo joseph wiggins thompson birch/anthony things could get pretty exciting, but the recruiting really has to take another step. who knows if it\'s the players or the system, probably a mixture of both. |
Canada vs. Dominican Republic
30-30 at the half
on TSN 2 Charlie V and Al Horford playing for the DR |
Canada wins! They somehow managed to not blow a late double-digit lead, taking it 73-72, and leaving Francisco Garcia in tears.
I missed it. |
I was pleasantly surprised since I was pessimistically expecting them to blow their lead :dancing:
Team Canada, better D than Raptors!
they actually won a game?
go team.
very impressive win against a tough dominican republic team only caught the first half though big win

FlexiSolv® products - Solvents for Adhesives
Product Announcement from INVISTA

It also finds use as a carrier solvent in solvent-borne adhesive systems requiring a slow evaporating solvent in adhesive formulations. DBE® esters can often be used as an effective alternative for solvents such as methylene chloride, MEK, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, xylene, toluene, and acetone in adhesives applications.

Full Product Description
Bullies aren't born mean--through the vicious cycle of mean, bullies are "made."According to the Ambassadors 4 Kids Club, one out of every four students is bullied--and 85% of these situations never receive intervention. Parents, students, and teachers have amped up solving the bullying problem for a networked generation of kids. Written by bestselling author Nancy Rue, each book in the Mean Girl Makeover trilogy focuses on a different character's point of view: the bully, the victim, and the bystander. The books show solid biblical solutions to the bullying problem set in a story for tween girls."Sorry I'm Not Sorry" tells the story of Kylie Steppe, former queen bee of Gold Country Middle School. After bullying a fellow GCMS student, Kylie has been expelled--"and "she" "has to attend mandatory counseling. Without her posse to aid her and other peers to torment, Kylie focuses on the person who stole her GVMS popularity crown: Tori Taylor. As Kylie plots revenge on Tori, she attends therapy sessions, where she reveals a few details that might explain why she finds power in preying on her middle school peers. After a rough year with bullying backfire, will Kylie decide to become more empathetic with her peers?It's hard for tweens to imagine why a bully acts the way she does. "Sorry I'm Not Sorry" shows girls that they hold the power to stop bullying through mutual understanding and acts of love.Trim Size: 5.5 x 8.375
Sorry I'm Not Sorry by Nancy N. Rue was published by Thomas Nelson Publishers in May 2015 and is our 59682nd best seller. The ISBN for Sorry I'm Not Sorry is 9781400323722.

In addition, Exaile supports plugins that provide features such as ReplayGain support, an equalizer with presets,[4] previewing tracks via a secondary soundcard, and Moodbar integration.

Happy Monday!
What a long weekend for me and I'm glad I got some colouring done. Although we did spent our Sunday at the park practically the whole day but of course when don't we!!??? :)
My husband had softball practice and my son had baseball practice right next to each other so that worked out. After that we went straight for some gourmet ice cream,YUMM!
My kids are of
officially out of school today and so I'm asking for prayers that we stay out of accidents this summer ((crossing fingers so tight)) Just in the last two weeks my son was at the hospital due to a head injury at SCHOOL (long story) and last week my baby Sophie fell running to the playground during one of my son's baseball game.
OUCH UUUUH!!!! Yup scraped both knees and her face, nose, top lip and YES,black eye :(
The swollen went down in 3 days and it's starting to look back to normal.
AWWHHHH my kids I tell ya.
Ok well let's carry on :)
On another note it's time for a new challenge at Magnolia-licious Highlities.
Our sweet talented host is my friend Mindy and she wants to see lots of "WATER"
A water theme creation which could be rain, beach, swimming anything relating to water.
This is what I've done on my part. A little something from variety of collections :)
More details at the bottom.
I colored Water Lily Tilda and the sunrise in the back with copics.
sorry bad picture. I'm gonna have to re-take this one.
All my Magnolia Rubber stamps can be found for ordering or pre-ordering at Magnolia-licious at great prices and make sure to check out their mini duos. Now thats a bargain :)
I used
Magnolia Doohickey Rose leaf
Okie dokie it's time for me to retrieve to my house duties and card making if I have some extra time.
Thanks for stopping by and looking forward to all these water theme creations.

A 100-word location, inspired by this (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_stalactite) and a classic fairytale.
A mysterious quarry. Feel free to suggest explanations - it's just an eerie thought that struck me that I intend to play with.
The addition of "irrelevant" details adds local colour to a campaign world, giving the impression that the DM has thought very deeply about the history of even the smallest architectural feature.
A permanently frozen lake, high in the Askharnn mountains, associated with the strange legend of the Amethyst Dragon.
An impressive citadel in the Askharnn mountains. Their prohibitive laws on travel during the Winter months can be a problem for pilgrims and wanderers.
"When our barbarian ancestors first arrived on the plains of our homeland, they found them covered in dust inches thick. They named them Muranvan, the Dusty Plains and armed with spades they cleared the dust heaving it off the edge of the world. For they had been chasing the Prey for long aeons up the face of the cliffs at the edge of the world, and in the chase had tired of their nomadic ways. They wanted a stable home. So they founded Takvanak, the City on the Plains. In the long silence after they had cleared the dust from Muranvan, rang out the deep and unforgettable tones of the Iron Heart, Saekeri, and the barbarians knelt and felt resounding reverence."
- The Saekeran, book 1 verse 1.
Deep in Throck forest there is a small valley filled with boulders. It is an uneasy place, full of invisible eyes. In the damp behind one of these boulders is a wooden door, virtually impossible to find, which leads down into the Kingdom of the Gnomes.
The Old Kingdom, a realm in a four-hundred year quarantine.
The lengthy process to do something necessary or a magical scroll needed is inscribed on the other side of a great tapestry and can't be removed. For more fun it could be in the kings throne room. Try to hide in shadows with a 20*5 (yards/meters) monstrosity!

text: Inside The NBA Crew Talks Politics; EJ Wrote In John KasichPatrick Redford11/10/16 9:42pmFiled to: john kasich?deadspin 2016electionelection 2016nbacharles barkleyshaqkenny smithernie johnsontntnba on tnt18711EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalinkScreencap via @NBAonTNTInstead of previewing the upcoming game between the Heat and the Bulls, the hosts of Inside The NBA instead spoke for a solid 10 minutes about the election of Donald Trump and how they felt a day removed from it. None of the panel supported Trump, but everyone urged their fellow disaffected citizens to get over Clinton's loss and respect Trump's authority as president.AdvertisementCharles Barkley says he was in shock, but ultimately, he said he respects the office of president.Kenny Smith said, "I've been an NBA player, and a black man, for a long time, and I know how to take a loss," while expressing hope that Trump would change.Shaq mostly shook his head at Trump's lack of experience.The coup de grâce was Ernie Johnson admitting he wrote in John Kasich, then speaking very candidly about his religious faith and how it motivates him and the need he feels to reflect and self-evaluate going forward. Nobody had anything really spicy to say, Ernie's out-of-nowhere support for the meat lad aside, but at least TNT was comfortable letting them talk for such a long time.
