Fuse Bead Pattern Designer Desciption:
You and your children can design and print Perler Bead patterns with the Fuse Bead Pattern Designer software. The software includes 40 pegboard layouts and all Perler bead colors. Create an unlimited number of designs. Save patterns and share with others. Easy and fun to use -- for ages 3 to 103. Multiple users can share the same program and keep their designs separate. Receive free software updates for 1 year. Perler Beads are a creative learning tool, full of fun for children. The beads are made with a unique formula that allows them to "fuse" when heated with an ordinary iron. Children simply place the beads on special re-usable pegboards. With adult supervision and an iron, the beads are fused into the created shape. Perler Beads activities help develop hand/eye co-ordination, color and shape recognition, fine motor skills, and imagination. And best of all they will keep children creatively occupied for hours! Creating designs of any kind is difficult for many children. This software allows all children to take their time with their Perler Beads designs, try out different designs, colors, and shapes, and print their design, which gets them ready to create the actual project with Perler Beads. Beyond creating and printing patterns, though, the software introduces colors, color names, shapes, color coordination, computer operations (open, save, print) and sharing. And it's lots of fun for adults, too! The software comes with a full User's Guide, but anyone can start using the software right away without reading any instructions. It's truly an easy, fun, and educational software program. Try it today! Requirements: 15 MB free hard drive space What's New: New pegboards, latest colors added

They say love is blind but what we would say about the past love, seeing Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif working together on the sets of Yashraj's 'Ek Tha Tiger' we get the feeling that past love experience is not always sour. Katrina Kaif has always maintained that she and Salman are thick of friends and nothing can change that.
Salman Khan after his surgery in the US and some days of rest has started shooting for the Yashraj's ambitious project 'Ek Tha Tiger' in Dublin. Seen dapperly dressed in suit and boot, we can guess Salman plays a style cop-like character, and indeed he plays one. The film tells the story of a Trinity College scientist suspected of selling missile technology secrets to Pakistan. The Indian government sends a secret agent, codenamed Tiger (Salman Khan), to find out about the professor's (Usha Uthup) activities. Before long, he falls in love with the professor's caretaker Zoya (Katrina Kaif).
The movie is directed by Kabir Khan of New York fame and it is scheduled to release on 1 June, 2012. Earlier Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif were confirmed to play the lead roles at a press conference held on May 3, 2011 at Yashraj Studios. The duo even shot for a photoshoot prior to the movie's start.
Here are the images of Katrina and Salman from the sets of 'Ek Tha Tiger':

We got it done
The Fannichs are ticked off. Jim Lowden, saw Dan round the group in good time and the got them done with Dan appearing at the west end of Loch Glascarnoch at about 5pm. An emotional moment. Helen and the girls have travelled up through the day, and Dan was over the moon to see them. Helen and I will the share the driving of the van over the final few days of the challenge.
A massive thank you to Sue and Phil Clark for their amazing support and dedication over the last 11 days or so. They've been with Dan every step of the way, enduring his robotic morning routine and horrific foot damage management practices. On the drive up Sue rang through with a suggested shopping list; air freshener took priority. In a final hurrah, Phil even made it up a Munro today, much to his delight.
A whole host of others are 'in town' to support the final push over the next few days; Dan's parents (Dorothy and Jim), Aled Butler, Tom and Astrid and Martin Bagness (Bilbo). A few more are scheduled to arrive tomorrow.
An early start tomorrow as Dan pushes there and back up Ben Wyvis. The plan is for Aled to take the brunt of the cycle ride back up to the west end of Loch Glascarnoch, followed by a tricky route north ticking of 6 more hills up to Oykel Bridge. A mountain bike drop will see Dan with a short ride north to finish. The weather today was kind on the whole, with a little cloud on some of the summits. It looks like more of the same tomorrow, with maybe a drop of rain. Nothing like the weather encountered previously. But you know what they say, 'it ain't over 'til the fat lady sings' and she's not even here yet!

Rach here, not Matt! Glad to hear my husband has arrived safely though had to look on Blog to find that out rather than receiving a personal text. I have known for a month now that I have been the other wife, second to the blog and Lord Munro! Oh well, have fun team Munro!ReplyDelete
Dan, this is so impressive. I wish you the best of luck with the last few, it looks like you've pretty much nailed it. I have spent weeks pouring over Stephen Pyke's round in 2010 planning a much more leisurely attempt of my own.ReplyDelete
Starting tomorrow with Ben More (Mull) I have 60 days to get round them all & I am allowing myself use of cars etc so not nearly as much of a herculean task. To find your blog is such a confidence booster and I will be pouring over it in the days to come.
Good Luck...I hope to follow (slowly) in your footsteps in the coming 8 weeks.
Oh wow! Only two left! Nearly there! How exciting!ReplyDelete
John and I met you on the summit of Sgurr Mor in the Fannichs on Saturday. All the best for completing your continuous round in the next few days. Fine effort by all accounts. :)ReplyDelete
Cheers Guys. Good to have met you as well. Dan now back at work!!! Jim L PS Will post on Walking Highland today (I was on holiday last week - just back). You guys are in one of the pics.Delete


text: The New drama on TNT with Timothy Hutton, Aldis Hodge{VooDoo from Friday Night Lights}, about a group of criminals led by a former insurance investigator, who pull off sophisticated cons against other criminals, especially corrupt corporations and those who have taken advantage of innocent people. Kind of like "Modern Day Robin Hoods" Anyone watch this show? I managed to catch the last ten minutes of the second episode and got torrents off the web for the other one and I have to say, it's really good imo. I like how they go about pulling the cons against people, like in the pilot-1st episode, they purposefully plant a blinking beacon to make Dubenich think that he knows what's really going on, even though they just planted it there to trick him into doing what they expected him to do...I suck at explanations, so just watch the show haha..

Mother's Day is slowly approaching and I thought it was only right to create an inspirational mood board.
Mothers day is a time to give appreciation to the female individuals that are important to you.
In my opinion, it's all about giving back and making them feel special.
Above I have shown some luxurious items that I know my mum would love if I gifted her them.
If you don't have much money, then bake some cakes or make a nice brunch, it's not all about spending loads.
It's the little things that count!
I hope this helped those of you that needed some inspiration and I hope you have a lovely Mothers day whatever you end up doing!

**TRIGGER WARNING** I discuss drug addiction in this video. If you have ever had a drug addiction, I would steer clear of this particular video. I do not go into full blown details, but still enough that you may want to avoid the video.
I know that during the time period that I was using drugs that I went through a lot of other things. The drug addiction was near the end of the time I was in San Francisco, where I was still technically homeless. I ended up returning back to Indiana, for the first time, to escape the drug scene. It helped greatly for me. Everyone has to do what they need to do to remain clean and sober. I support whatever means that an individual has to take to do so, so if you are in recovery and have people telling you that you have to do A or B tell them that you need to do what you need to do to stay sober. That it is your journey of sobriety and that whatever keeps you clean is what keeps YOU clean! Know that you have someone in your corner that has been there and knows that even if you haven't started on your own path of sobriety that it is possible. It won't always be easy, but know that you got this and can kick whatever bad habit you are trying to quit. You got this!

St Hildas Window
The Bailiffgate Museum's two west windows depict two saints, Hilda and Thomas Percy. They were given to the then catholic church in November 1896 by seven descendents of St Thomas Percy who came, in early Norman times, from around Whitby.
A princess of Diera (today's Yorkshire), Hild, whose has been known as Hilda since medieval times, was born in about 614. She became a Christian when she was baptised by St Paulinus – at the same time as her relative the Northumbrian king Edwin in 627. At the age of 33, she was invited by St Aiden to establish a new religious community on the river Wear. A year later she moved, as Abbess, to the important double (that is one with both monks and nuns) monastery of Hartlepool.
Hilda is most famous for her next role as Abbess of another double house: Whitby. Many came to seek her advice, but it was the Synod held at Whitby in 664 that is her most important claim to fame. It was here that the English church decided that they would follow Rome rather than Celtic practices.

Taking a swing at the big one
LOUISVILLE, Ky. - Tyler Baze was 5 years old in 1988, the first year he can recall the Kentucky Derby.
Baze had a rooting interest. His uncle at the time, Gary Stevens, was aboard Winning Colors, who turned for home with the lead.
"I remember sitting in the front room hollering and screaming, 'Come on, Uncle Gary. Come on!' " Baze recalled.
Winning Colors won, and Baze knew more than ever what he wanted to be: a jockey. He accomplished that goal shortly after he turned 16 in 1999. Now, at the age of 20, Baze will have a chance to emulate Stevens when he rides in his first Kentucky Derby on Saturday aboard Indian Express.
The opportunity reflects Baze's growing status in Southern California, where retirements and injuries have led to a turnover in the standings. He was eighth with 41 winners from 350 mounts at this year's Santa Anita winter-spring meeting, 53 winners behind the runaway leader, Patrick Valenzuela.
This week, Baze has been anxiously awaiting his next ride aboard Indian Express, the Utah-bred colt owned by Phil Chess and trained by Bob Baffert. Baze has ridden Indian Express both times the colt has raced since he arrived from Panama, including a second-place finish at 35-1 in the Santa Anita Derby on April 5, the colt's first route race.
Indian Express led or disputed the pace throughout the 1 1/8 miles, losing by a head to Buddy Gil, who was ridden by none other than Stevens.
"I knew he'd run well, but he surprised me the way he finished," Baze said. "I think he'll run all day long."
Baze is one of five rookies in this year's Derby field. He is joined by Tony Farina (who rides Brancusi), Rosemary Homeister Jr. (Supah Blitz), Terry Thompson (Sir Cherokee), and Cornelio Velasquez (Scrimshaw). Each will be trying to become the first rookie to win the Derby since Ron Franklin won with Spectacular Bid in 1979.
To prepare, Baze has had no shortage of experts to quiz. Last week, he called Hall of Fame jockeys Eddie Delahoussaye and Chris McCarron, who each won the Derby twice. Both have retired in the last year.
McCarron advised Baze on how to deal with his emotions, and Delahoussaye, the last rider to win consecutive runnings (1982-83), offered strategy hints.
"I asked Chris, 'Can you tell me any secrets about Churchill?' " Baze said. "Chris said not to think about too much. Just go with the flow.
"I had a nice long talk with Eddie Delahoussaye. He told me it's a long stretch. He said if you're on the lead, don't move too early."
There was not as much advice from Stevens. "He's one of the ones I have to beat," Stevens said with a quick laugh.
Baze was born in Seattle, the son of two jockeys - Earl and Cammie Baze. Russell Baze, a second cousin, is the perennial leader at Bay Area tracks and a member of racing's Hall of Fame. Stevens was once married to Toni Baze - the sister of Tyler Baze's father - but they have since divorced.
"I'm very proud of what he's accomplished," Stevens said of Baze. "I've seen a lot of improvement in the last eight or nine months. The thing I like is he continues to improve. He thinks there is something to learn each time.
"He's got a big chance with all the changes going on in Southern California. In six or seven years, he could be the heir apparent."
Baze was 16 when Ivan Puhich, a jockey agent, offered to help launch his career in Southern California. Now 77, Puhich, a former Marine, remembers sitting Baze down for a talk.
"Tyler, you're 16," Puhich recalled saying. "I'm about to steal something you'll never get back. You may become a great jockey, but I'm going to steal your youth."
Baze rode his first winner at the Oak Tree meeting at Santa Anita on Halloween in 1999 but spent most of that winter at Turf Paradise in Phoenix, where he rode 109 winners. He returned to Southern California in the spring of 2000 and put together a campaign that led to an Eclipse Award as the nation's outstanding apprentice.
The winners kept coming. He finished second in the Santa Anita standings in 2000-01. In the winter of 2001-02, however, Baze's career hit a lull. At the time, he was battling mononucleosis, Puhich said.
"It took him a good three or four months to get over it," Puhich said.
Last fall, Baze's luck started to turn when he picked up mounts on stakes winners Avanzado and Crackup. Avanzado won the Forest Hills Handicap last October and finished second in the Golden Shaheen in Dubai in March. Baze has been getting better horses on a daily basis.
Behind the scenes, Baze has hired a personal trainer and works out at a facility partly owned by fellow jockey Victor Espinoza. The workouts are designed for strength, not muscle.
"I feel like a stronger rider," said Baze, who tacks 114 pounds but can do 111.
The extra work has not gone unnoticed by fellow riders and trainers.
Baffert gave Baze the call on Indian Express for the San Pedro Stakes at Santa Anita on March 22, the colt's first start since arriving from Panama. Indian Express finished fourth, beaten 2 3/4 lengths. Two weeks later Baffert started Indian Express in the Santa Anita Derby, and stuck with Baze.
"I could have jocked him off, but it's a big deal for him," Baffert said. "I can see the look in his eyes. When he came to ride the Santa Anita Derby, he was loose."
Baffert said he knows that Baze will be nervous and excited for the Kentucky Derby on Saturday.
"I'll tell him to enjoy it. Once they get in the gate, he'll be fine," Baffert said. "If he was on Empire Maker, he wouldn't be able to sleep. Even the experienced jockeys get shook up the night before."
Baze does not know what to expect, but is anxious for the moment to arrive.
"I don't know what I'll feel," he said. "This is everybody's dream."

NICs avoidance: employment income provided through third parties: Employer Financed Retirement Benefit Schemes - example 2 relevant step counts as employment income
Example 2 - relevant steps counting as employment income for tax and earnings for NICs
The arrangement
- In April 2012 company B established an EFRBS for its four directors to provide retirement benefits at retirement, or in the event of early retirement due to ill health or disability. The trustees established sub-trusts for each director.
- In May 2012 company B paid significant amounts of money to the EFRBS trustees and asked them to allocate equally amongst each of the sub-trusts.
- The trustees complied with the company's request.
- One of the directors planned to retire on 31 January 2015 at age 60. The company asked the trustees to make arrangements to begin paying this director's pension from the trust funds at that time.
- The trustees started paying the pension from 1 February 2015, in equal monthly instalments.
After the trustees accept the payments from the employer, they allocate equally to the sub-trusts the amounts received. This represents a relevant step within section 554B(1)(b) ITEPA, see EIM45095. The value of the relevant step in respect of each director counts as employment income.
The amount which counts as employment income under Part 7A of ITEPA 2003 is treated as earnings under regulation 22B of the SS(C)R 2001. When assessing Class 1 NICs, this amount must be added to any other earnings paid in the same earnings period that the date of the relevant step is in.
In this example there may be more than one relevant step, the value of which counts as employment income. If that is the case, see EIM45725.
For commentary on the pension payments, see NIM53000.

We recently had a black belt test at my school. During the sparring matches I worked one of the corners; water between rounds and blood cleanup. Right up close to the action I noticed some differences between the students who were testing and the instructors they fought. The main difference was in how they treated combinations.
In kickboxing a combination is 2 or more techniques thrown as a set. Typically these are 4 counts where 2 punches and 2 kicks are thown. There are a bunch of different 4 counts and every school probably numbers them differently. There are other kinds of combinations too which don't have as many kicks as punches and vice versa. You alao don't have to employ only 4 techniques. One of my instructors used to say his intent was to punch me 9 times for every punch I landed on him.
We all know these combinations and train them via pad drills relentlessly. So what was the difference between the combinations of the student's and the instructors? It wasn't speed or power, the instructors may be experienced, but they were also much older and hopefully I won't offend them by saying they were a bit slower. The difference was in how they thew the combination.
The students would generally start the combination and if the first technique didn't land they would stop to decide what to do next. The instructors, however would fire the entire combination regardless of the success of the opening kick or punch. It is as if the combination was a single technique to be thrown and the individual movements just contributed to the whole. This had the effect that the instructors were able to overwhelm the students frequently during the rounds. Maybe the first punch didn't land, but who cares if the next 3 do.
This is not a knock against the students for they are bad-ass and I would fear for the safety of anyone they were up against. They are experienced full contact fighters, but so are their instructors.
The moral I guess is to throw the whole combination, whether you are fighting hand to hand or with firearms. Don't shoot the bad guy once and see how it worked out. My Glock has a big magazine. Most people will find it hard to deal with a sustained volley of punches, kicks, and 9mm projectiles. Under significant stress I already know I will put 4 rounds into a guy before I even stop to think about the next move. Hmmm 4 rounds, Kickboxing 4 counts, it's probably just a coincidence.

1961 Chrysler Imperial Southampton1961 Imperial Crown 4 door hardtop, king of the road in 61. This car has plenty of potential and is wearing the infamous "Malibu Tan" (pink) paint/interior package. Not many of these out there so, here's your opportunity. This car was barn find from an estate sale a few years ago. I am spring cleaning, need the room and simply have no time for this sleek beauty.
Car is basically overall good and straight with exception of repairable nose body damage (about a softball sized dent, see photo). I have a good used grill (see photo) to replace existing damaged unit. The car has some rust but, not a rusty car, basically limited to the following repairable areas: the lower front fenders, lower front door corners, some in lower quarter and trunk pan has some rust damage from condensation, pooling water on rubber trunk mat over the years but, that area has been carefully cleaned, sanded, rust stabilized and primered. That majority of trunk area is solid and through spots can easily be repaired rather than replacing entire floor pan. Again everything else looks basically good and solid including cabin area floors.
Engine (413) runs nice and smooth. Fuel tank will need good cleaning and probably lines. It currently will run and yard drive with aid of fuel can hooked up. Again good running, quiet engine (should get a tune up and fluid change for regular use). Brakes will need gone through. Coolant still green. Transmission seems good too.
Interior is all there and original. A lot of it could be cleaned up and useable. This car equipped with Auto Pilot and A/C!
I don't have to sell this car and am not giving it away however, price is set VERY reasonable. You want the car sooner?, "Buy it now" can be added.
This car will need to be trailer or flat-bedded to its new home or repair facility. Sold as is, where is 50621 IA. PayPal $250.00 within 24 hrs, balance in full with in 5 days please.

An apology
I wrote something stupid on Friday. I was putting together a follow-up post about Maria Popova and her blog, Brain Pickings, covering a bunch of points I'd failed to make in my original post on the subject. And it turns out that there were a lot of those points: the follow-up post ran to more than 2,400 words, on top of the 1,000-word original.
The second post was written disjointedly, on trains and on strange couches and while sitting in a lecture hall at Yale Law School, half-listening to panel discussions about impact investing in emerging markets. As such, it wasn't one of those posts where you have something to say, and then you write it down, and then you press "publish"; instead, it was one of those posts where you write a bit, and then you do a podcast, which gives you another idea, which you squeeze in somewhere, and so on. The perfect blog post is exactly one idea long; in that respect, this post was far from perfect. I just didn't want to spend all week writing about Maria Popova, so I tried to get everything covered in one fell swoop.
As a result, halfway through the post, I made an ill-advised detour into gender politics. (Not that I had any advisers telling me this was a good idea: it was entirely my own mistake.) Here's what I wrote:
The consistently positive and upbeat tone to Popova's blog might generate healthy Amazon income as a side-effect, but it's also genuine: she's one of those bloggers — Gina Trapani is another very successful example — who have no time for snark and who naturally look for things to celebrate rather than things to tear down. (Just listen to that O'Reilly talk: she dishes out huge amounts of praise to virtually everybody she cites.)
To a certain extent, this is a female thing: positive happy bloggers tend to be female, as do their readers. And when someone like Anne-Marie Slaughter supports Maria Popova to the tune of $300 per year, there's definitely an element there of supporting the sisterhood. Which is a good thing!
But to many male observers, there's something a bit off there.
This did not go down well, and I soon ran into a firestorm of criticism on Twitter, accusing me of saying that women are simple and happy. How could I be so sexist? How could I generalize about women, or about women bloggers, in that way?
My first reaction was indignation: I hadn't generalized about women, or women bloggers. If I say that "brain surgeons tend to be men", you really haven't learned anything about men, or about male surgeons. Men don't tend to be brain surgeons, and neither do male surgeons.
But on reflection, including that passage was pretty obviously stupid. For one thing, my language ("female thing", "male observers") naturally and unnecessarily raised a lot of hackles: there's a line between being plainspoken and being needlessly provocative, and I crossed it. In doing so, I made it far too easy for my readers to miss the precise meaning of "most positive happy bloggers are female", and to read it instead as "most female bloggers are positive and happy", or even "most females are positive and happy".
And then there's the bigger question of why on earth I thought it was a good idea to bring sex into the blog post at all. It really wasn't a particularly important part of what I was saying, but it created a situation akin to a long play with a nude scene in the middle: once it's over, all that anybody remembers is the nude scene. By including this passage, I was effectively doing my best to ensure that people would completely ignore the other 2,300 words of the post.
Finally, and most importantly, I was wrong on the substance of what I said, as well. This one took me longer to work out; I'm indebted to Salon's Irin Carmon, who spelled things out in an email to me, for explaining something which can't really be encapsulated in 140 characters:
You seem completely ignorant to the fact that if many women behave in a "positive" fashion, it's partially because the social costs of being anything else are much, much higher than they are for men. Women who are critical, opinionated etc are still "crazy" or "bitchy" or whatever. Meanwhile, women have socialized to not make too much noise, be nice, make other people feel better about themselves — to enormous professional cost, I would argue, even if they are inherent goods for society. The successful women you write about are clearly threading that needle, and it's working for them — but the way you described them clearly implied that it made them unserious ("to many male observers", etc).
In a similar vein, women are often disqualified from serious discourse for writing about things that are become serious when men do them. See: Andrew Sullivan writing about his personal life. Women who do it are navelgazers.
When I talked about "male observers", I didn't mean the word "male" as a compliment. Far from it. But Irin's point is well taken: there's a societal pressure on women to be pleasant, and the many wonderful snarky female bloggers out there generally face much nastier and much more personal pushback than do those of us who are men. So it's fine to praise a male blogger for being positive and happy, just as it's fine to praise a white man for being calm and slow to anger. But talking about positive and happy female bloggers is a bit like talking about calm and controlled black men — it's something which is incredibly fraught, and which you certainly don't want to do in passing.
Katha Pollitt, in 1991, coined what she called the "Smurfette Principle" of children's books:
The message is clear. Boys are the norm, girls the variation; boys are central, girls peripheral; boys are individuals, girls types. Boys define the group, its story and its code of values. Girls exist only in relation to boys.
My "female thing" was a prime example of the Smurfette Principle in action. Snarky and political male bloggers are the norm; happy and positive female bloggers are the peripheral exception. That is pretty offensive, and also untrue. Blogging is a broad and vibrant church, and singling out some random subset of it as being particularly female is very unlikely to be helpful. So: apologies to everybody who was offended by this wholly unnecessary passage. There was no good reason for publishing it, and doing so was entirely my fault.

After Police Shoot and Kill Black Teen, 911 Caller Threatened With Deportation
Oscar Carillo-Gonzalez had his backpack stolen from out of his car and called 911. Carillo-Gonzalez told the dispacther that the black teenager was armed; a lie to expediate assistance.
Police later shot and killed 19-year-old Kendrec McDade. Police say he made sudden movements to his wristband.
Is Carillo-Gonzalez to blame or is the shooting part of a more complex pattern of uneseccary police force?
(flickr: pictureperfectpose)
via Huffington Post
The question of who to blame, if anyone, for the fatal shooting of 19-year-old Kendrec McDade is a controversial one. But the 911 caller, who admits he lied to Pasadena police about McDade having a gun, is adamant that he is not responsible for the teen's death.
"I just want to clarify that I didn't kill the guy. I didn't do anything to the guy," Oscar Carrillo-Gonzalez, the 26-year-old father of two, said to CBS in the video above.
Police say that they shot McDade because they were told he was armed and because he made a sudden movement and reached for his waistband. As it turned out, McDade, who died shortly after being shot, was unarmed.
The 911 caller admitted that he told the police that the teenagers were armed so that officers would respond faster. He said that he was afraid and in shock after he saw McDade and a 17-year-old boy steal a backpack out of his car.
Carrillo-Gomez told CBS that he is sorry that McDade died but he can't understand why so many people are acting as if he killed the teen. "I didn't tell the guy to get into my car. I am not the guy who shot the guy," Carrillo-Gonzalez said.
Pasadena police held the young father for six days on suspicion of involuntary manslaughter. Los Angeles County prosecutors Monday declined to file involuntary manslaughter charges while they continue to investigate, the Long Beach Press Telegram reports.
The arrest did lead immigration officials to discover that Carrillo-Gonzalez is an undocumented immigrant who had been deported to Mexico in 2006. Officials have reinstated his removal order but have agreed to postpone deportation until the Pasadena investigation is complete, ABC reports. Meanwhile, he is being electronically monitored by an ankle bracelet.
The Pasadena officers who shot McDade, Jeffery Newlen and Mathew Griffin, are on paid administrative leave while an investigation continues, the Pasadena Sun reports.
However, McDade's family says that the investigation "reeks" of a cover up and that the shooting was a part of a pattern of abuse by Pasadena police, the Associated Press reports. On Wednesday, the family filed a federal lawsuit against the department, saying that McDade was never ordered to stop and that there are no reports of the teen defying police orders.
McDade was a student at Citrus College and aspired to study law. Many have compared his death to the February shooting of Florida teen Trayvon Martin.

A Relationship Study of Assistant Principals' Reported Self-Efficacy and Organizational Efficacy Levels Based Upon Job Preparation Experiences in One K-12 Public School District
Pope, Sharon Elaine
MetadataShow full item record
The purpose of this study was to investigate self-efficacy and organizational efficacy as reported by assistant principals for relationships to their job preparation experiences in one K-12 public school district. Bandura defined self-efficacy as "]belief in one's capabilities to organize and execute the courses of action required to produce given attainments" (1997, p. 3). Organizational efficacy has been defined as "an aggregated judgment of an organization's individual members' assessment of their (a) collective capacities, (b) mission or purpose, and (c) sense of resilience" (Bohn, 2010, p. 233). As efficacious beliefs have reciprocal influence that can better fortify performance (Bandura, 1997), this study explored both self-efficacy and organizational efficacy to provide a bi-level depiction of assistant principal efficacy. The self-efficacy measurement was gathered through the 2006 School Administrator Efficacy Scale (SAES) survey (McCollum, Kajs, and Minter, 2006a, 2006b) and the organizational efficacy measurement was gathered through the 2010 Organizational Efficacy Scale (OES) survey (Bohn, 2010). Additionally, self-reported demographics and job preparation experiences were gathered through a participant information survey. Beyond descriptive analyses that established benchmarking efficacy measurements for the participating school district, ANOVA analyses revealed no significant relationships in self-reported self-efficacy or organizational efficacy based upon the job preparation experiences of assistant principals. The benchmarking measurements were presented to inform school district leaders as they direct future district succession, mentoring, or professional development planning for increased efficacious leadership development and for improved human capital management results.

My response (part two)
Permits and fairness, indeed what needs to be done is to go through each and every neighborhood including the Old City and require proof of ownership, once that is accomplished then examine all alterations to the property top make sure they were permitted properly we'll start the deeded process and chain of title with the earliest occupant, all title deeds or recorded instruments that are proved to be genuine will be examined, those properties that are not properly deeded will be dealt with according to Israeli Law, not Ottoman or Jordanian.Fair it will be, very very fair rest assured.
Now for your " Get in touch with your Christian side, Sam."
I suggest the swipe should be carried over to the Theology part and call it what you wish, I'd call it Why Jesus is not the Messiah or Why I don't believe in the myth of Who Jesus was.
Now I happen to like the holiday, it's not my holiday although I have actually enjoyed Christmas Dinner at the American Colony Hotel in the so-called "Eastern Side " as you put it a 10-minute walk from the Old City and btw my very favorite hotel (The American Colony Hotel)
when I travel to Jerusalem for holidays. I recommend the Christmas Pudding with hard sauce and the small but talented string group and singers from nearby Bethlehem if they still do that.
The Jewish Messiah has several dozen pre-qualifications most of these with one exception have been having been twisted and reconfigured by people like you who do not speak any Hebrew and have no knowledge of the Jewish faith, however, there have been apostate Jews who for their own reasons have assisted in this fraud. Sadly these Apostate Jews also assisted in the persecution and murder of their former co-religionist under the direction of the Church. (see Disputations)
But, I will limit the discussion to one pillar of your belief that Jesus is the Jewish Messiah, I will further expand to any Jew being the Messiah, because the Jews believe that the Messiah has not come, ever, so he must fulfill certain prerequisite requirements and I will limit it to just one, that being he must be

We have exchanged contracts and we are now officially moving to North Devon! Whoop!
So when are you moving? I hear you ask. Welp, we are moving only blooming moving on Friday the 13th of May!!
Due to work commitments, that was the best date for us. Unfortunately it buggers up my plans to visit my family on the Isle of Wight the following week for my birthday – because we cannot leave the cat on her own in a strange house with just a litter tray for company! But right now, I am just grateful that we finally have a date.
And no, I do not think that moving on Friday the 13th is unlucky. Its an old wives tale and I am not superstitious at all….Nope, not at all!*
Anyway, I thought I would waffle on a bit more about why we are moving and talk about the new house and I promise that this will be my last post about moving. Honest!
Its funny really, this time last year we were pretty settled in our house and we were still making future plans around it. But then, life has a funny way of proving you wrong!
After our holiday last August we fell hook line and sinker for North Devon and the lifestyle it offered. Ok, we were on holiday, so of course we felt more relaxed. But all the while we were away, a fair degree of normal life went on because we still had to work (Rob is self employed and runs a business, so he has to be available 24/7 and I had to do a few things online), do food shops, cook and exercise etc. But what a place to do it all in! North Devon is a beaut, offering acres of National Trust protected land, stunning beaches and plenty of outdoor pursuits. We just couldn't get the area out of our heads!
In January this year, spurred on by the families decision to move away, we decided to just go for it. Our decision to move is probably the most impulsive thing that we have ever done, but it just feels like the right thing to do at this stage of our lives. We have been back to the area a few times since last August and have researched the hell out of it online (Rob was #obsessed at one point!) so we will not be going in completely blind. Slightly blind, but not completely blind!!!
One of our biggest goals from this move was to release some of the equity from our house, buying a cheaper place (downsizing a little) in order to purchase one of those fancy garden offices for Rob. After 10 years of him working from home, its now time for a better work/life balance and to separate work from home. Sometimes Rob does not leave the house for days, so just stepping out of the back door into the garden would make a huge difference. Plus he needs to be able to switch off at the end of the day.
We did indeed find a house at the right price, in our preferred location that met our requirements (i.e it was nice and within our budget – we are not that fussy TBH!) The house needed a new kitchen, bathroom and decorating through out, but we were expecting that with our budget and were prepared to do it all over again. Plus it had solar panels! The inner hippie in me was so excited about having solar panels and lower energy bills!! But unfortunately, after accepting our offer, a few weeks later the home owners took their house off the market and we had to find another place.
I know and fully understand their reasons for doing so and its not my place to discuss why on here. Needless to say we were a bit gutted that we had lost that house and had to find another.
So we rushed back down to Devon to find another place, as we were really worried about losing our buyers, and we ended up having a second viewing of a house that we had previously dismissed as it was at the top of our price range. On the second viewing we knew that it was the one. Its a three bedroom house with a garage and in a nice part of the village we wanted. The house doesn't have solar panels, nor will we have any money freed up to buy a garden office, so Rob will continue working from a bedroom. But it doesn't need any work done to it.
And I cannot tell you enough how pleased I am that it doesn't need any work done to it!!
It is not 100% to our taste, but we can live with it. In time we will make subtle changes like changing wall colours and the tiles in the kitchen etc. But for now, we can just move straight in and get on with things. It is such a relief being able to move to a new area and to concentrate on settling in, making new friends (I hope!) and getting on with our lives.
Rob is brilliant at DIY and we have done a good job fixing up this house (if I say so myself!) but our current house has been such a chore to fix up. Its so hard to find the energy and enthusiasm to decorate when we work long hours. In our first house we enjoyed doing the decorating, going to Ikea and feeling like grown ups in DIY stores, but the novelty soon wore off for our second house! These days we want to spend our money and precious spare time doing more fun things like surfing, cycling and camping trips, not decorating!
The new house is smaller than our current house, but we are not bothered about that. Plus we have managed to transfer our current mortgage over, so we haven't had to borrow any more money for it!** It is a 1960's/1970's house on a small estate, with nice big windows (which was on my wish list as I wanted a nice light and airy place), lots of storage, a smaller garden and IT DOESN'T NEED ANY WORK!!!!
In a few weeks I will share some photos and our future plans for it. I also hope to do lots of posts about exploring our new area. But who knows though as photography is not my forte and I am a lazy blogger!
*TBH I have never had anything bad happen on a Friday the 13th. So I do not give a **** about the date! What's the worst that could happen? We break down on route and the cat pees herself in her carrier in the car? Been there done that! It happened last time we moved, no biggie!
**A life goal of ours is to pay off the mortgage early. I don't know if we will be able to, but not increasing it and keeping our monthly outgoings the same is a step in the right direction. And blimey, am I adulting hard lately talking about this kind of stuff on my blog or what?!!!

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 4 (UPI) -- A Doritos Super Bowl commercial created by 29-year-old Mark Freiburger of Los Angeles won him a chance to work on the next Michael Bay blockbuster.
The commercial, called "Fashionista Daddy," was one of thousands of submissions by consumers as part of a "Crash the Super Bowl" contest sponsored by Doritos, a brand of Frito-Lay North America, which is part of PepsiCo.
Doritos chose two of the submissions to air during the Super Bowl, which is arguably the premier television event of the year for advertisers.
After the game, "Fashionista Daddy," came in at No. 4 on the USA Today Super Bowl Ad Meter. The other consumer-created ad Doritos aired was called "Goat 4 Sale." That was ranked No. 7 on the USA Today ad meter.
The USA Today ad meter is not affiliated with the contest. Doritos, however, uses the top ranking to declare its winning ad.
Freiburger's prize included $25,000 and a chance to work with Michael Bay on the fourth installment of the "Transformers" movie franchise, a Paramount Pictures and Hasbro production that is scheduled for a June 27, 2014, release.
"We are so excited to award Mark the chance to work with one of the most acclaimed directors of our time. It's an exciting finish for one of the most exciting engagement programs the Doritos brand has created to date," said Ram Krishnan, vice president of marketing, Frito-Lay North America.
With his ad reaching No. 4, Freiburger, 29, of Los Angeles, missed chances at bigger prizes. Doritos awards $1 million to creators of "Crash the Super Bowl" ads that end up ranked No. 1, $600,000 for a No. 2 ad and $400,000 for one that is rated third.


text: Someone (message deleted - sorry!) had asked about a brown gravy recipe the other day. I happened to make potatoes and gravy last night, so your request is timely. The recipe for brown gravy is from The New McDougall Cookbook, p.334. Here it is in whole for those without the book: BROWN GRAVY (makes 2 cups) 2 cups warm water 1 Tbs. raw cashew pieces, rinsed (I omitted this ingredient because of the high fat content) 1 Tbs. onion powder 2 Tbs. cornstarch or arrowroot 3 Tbs. soy sauce (I used a "light" soy) 2-3 cloves garlic, pressed or 1/2 tsp. garlic powder (I used the powder, thinking it would add some bulk to the gravy since I omitted the cashews) 1/8 tsp. freshly ground black pepper 1-2 Tbs. parsley flakes (optional - but a wonderful addition if used with the potato dish following) *Place 1/2 cup warm water + all the ingredients except the parsley in a blender & blend until smooth & creamy *When creamy, add 1 1/2 cups more warm water & blend *Pour into a saucepan & cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thick, about 5 min. *Add the parsley flakes after cooking, if desired NOTE: The gravy came out very tasty, and only slightly thickened, as we like it. I will add more cornstarch next time I want a heavier, thicker gravy. I used the gravy over the recipe for *Potato Balls* on p. 315, only I made a casserole out of the dish as I was pressed for time. Here is my adapted version: Potato "Balls" Casserole -serves 4 (except in my house - it serves 2 :) ) 4-5 potatoes, peeled and boiled until just tender (10 min.) 1/4 cup finely chopped onion 1 1/2 tsp. dried basil 1/2 tsp. garlic powder 1 tsp. nutritional yeast (I used torula flakes) 1/3 cup fine bread crumbs (I used herbed crumbs) *Preheat oven to 350 degrees F *Finely shred the cooled potatoes with a grater or food processor * Mix with all of the other ingredients, except the bread crumbs *(At this point you could roll mixture into balls and roll in crumbs to bake on cookie sheet - turning once) OR *Place potato mixture into casserole baking dish, and top with bread crumbs *Bake for 15 - 20 minutes. Serve with brown gravy Not a spot was left! Hope you enjoy it as much as we did.. Tina Pat94@xxxxxxxxx ------------------------------

This guide assumes you know the basics of Joomla, such as installing components, creating articles, and managing things like modules and plugins.
Download the package for your version of Joomla from the downloads section.
Once you have your package, you will need to install this on the Joomla backend. This is done in the normal way that you would install a new component. The installer will automatically install the additional modules and plugins for you.
Once Freestyle Support is installed, you will need to set up some users that have permissions to handle support and moderation activities. To do this go to 'Components' -> 'Freestyle Support' -> 'Users'.
Click the add button, and select the user you would like to add permissions for, and specify what permissions you would like the user to have. For a more information on what each permission means see the link below.
You will need to add some menu items to your site to be able to use Freestyle Support. The minimum you will need is the 'Support Main Menu'. Go to your Joomla menu ('Menus' -> 'Main Menu') and add a new item. The item you will need to select is under Freestyle Support called 'Main Menu'. Name and save this item. This will create you a link to the main Freestyle Support main menu, containing links to all the different components available.
Some of the icons on this menu will only be visible if you are logged in as a user with permissions to view that section.
If you go to the Freestyle Support main admin page, under 'Components' -> 'Freestyle Support', then you will be presented with links to all the different places where you can input your data.
Support tickets are created and administered using the front end of your website. Your site users will be able to open new tickets using the 'New Support Ticket' menu item on your sites 'Support Main Menu' page. The users can also view existing tickets using the 'View Support Tickets' menu item.
To administer support tickets, you need to be logged in as a user with the permission to do so (set up earlier in the users setup). If the user has sufficient permission to do this, then they can use the 'Administration' menu item on the support main menu.
Here, go to the support tab to view the tickets that have been created by your site users.
Support tickets can be assigned by 'Product', 'Department' and 'Category'. You can set up products using the 'Products' menu item on the Freestyle Support main admin page. 'Departments' and 'Categories' can also be setup here using the 'Ticket Categories' and 'Ticket Departments' icons respectively. You can specify which products a department is displayed on, and which products and departments a category is displayed for when creating these items.
Tickets can be set to automatically be assigned to ticket handlers based in what product, department and category the ticket is created with. For a guide to this see the link below.
To get started with FAQs, you will need to add some categories first. Do this under 'FAQ Categories' in the 'FAQs' section. You can create new categories here in the same way you would create new Joomla articles.
Then you will be able to add some FAQs to your site. Do this under 'FAQs'. Again this is a standard type Joomla authoring page set.
For more information on setting up FAQs, including changing the visual styles see the articles linked below.
The module 'Freestyle Support: FAQ/KB category/product listing' can be used to list your FAQ categories on your site.
You will find the sections related to knowledge base under the 'Knowledge Base' section on the Freestyle Support main admin page on the Joomla backend.
Knowledge base works on a 'Product' -> 'Category' -> 'Article' layout. You can optionally ignore products and just use the 'Category' -> 'Article' if you wish. You can also create articles on their own with no product or category.
Products are created under the 'Products' menu item. Alternately, on the top navigation bar, under 'Products'.
Knowledge base categories are created under the 'Categories' menu item. Alternately, on the top navigation bar, under 'KB Cats'.
Articles are created under the 'Articles' menu item. Alternately, on the top navigation bar, under 'KB Articles'. When creating an article, you can specify which category you would like it to belong to, or select 'Uncategorized' to create an article with no category. To allocate an article to a product, use the 'Products' entry on the article edit page. If you would like the article to show for all of your products, leave this set to 'Yes', otherwise, change this to 'No' and tick the products that you would like your article associated with. If you have no products this option will not be visible.
The module 'Freestyle Support: FAQ/KB category/product listing' can be used to list your Knowledge base products and categories on your site. The 'Freestyle Support: Knowledge base product info' can be used to display the 'Extra Panel Text' associated with a product.
Knowledge base articles can have comments posted against them too. Comments can be turned on and off under the 'Settings' page on the 'Knowledge base' tab. General comments settings can be found under the 'General Settings' tab. These can be set to be moderated and a user who has moderation permissions will be able to moderate the comments from the 'Administration' icon on the support main menu, under the 'Moderation' tab.
To create a new announcement, use the 'Announcements' menu link. This will display a list of your announcements and if they are published or not. The 'Description for module' is only displayed in the announcements module as a subtext to the announcement title. Articles created here will be displayed under the 'Announcements' icon on the support main menu on your site.
The announcements module is set up like any joomla module under the 'Extensions' -> 'Module Manager' menu. The module is called 'Freestyle Support: Announcements'. This will display a brief list of your most recent announcements in a module on your site.
Announcements can have comments posted against them too. Comments can be turned on and off under the 'Settings' page on the 'Announcements' tab. General comments settings can be found under the 'General Settings' tab. These can be set to be moderated and a user who has moderation permissions will be able to moderate the comments from the 'Administration' icon on the support main menu, under the 'Moderation' tab.
Glossary is a database of terms and some associated description that can be used through Freestyle Support. You can add terms to your database using the 'Glossary Items' menu item on the main freestyle admin backend page. Any words specified in the glossary will be displayed within an article as a highlighted word with a tool tip containing the description of that word.
To enable the display of glossary highlighting you will need to go to the 'settings' menu, under the 'Glossary' tab. Here you can specify which sections of your site the glossary is displayed on. At the moment this is only available on FAQs and KB Articles, but more options will be added soon.
Testimonials can be used to gather feedback from your customers. They can be created on a per product basis, or just as general testimonials. The default setup on the testimonials section is to only allow registered users to post testimonials, and that none of the testimonials are moderated. To change this use the 'Settings' menu item, under the 'Testimonials' tab.
The 'Freestyle Support: Testimonials' module can be used to display various testimonials on your site, and several view options are available for the module.
If your testimonials are set to be moderated, then a user who has moderation permissions will be able to moderate the comments from the 'Administration' icon on the support main menu, under the 'Moderation' tab.
You can alter many settings relating to Freestyle Support from the main admin page under the 'Settings' icon. For a guide to what settings are available and what they do see the link below.
You can also customize several templates from the Joomla backend. These are found under the 'Templates' icon. For a guide to the templates, see the link below.
Freestyle Support also allows you to modify the templates used for any emails that are sent. This is under the 'Email Templates' menu icon. For a guide to the templates, see the link below.
Unfortunately, due to the way Joomla works, to customize the view settings for each of the individual sections, you will need to create additional menu items. If you create a new Joomla menu item to a specific section (such as Freestyle Support -> KB: List All Articles) you will be able to alter how the page are viewed from the settings on the right of this menu item.

The Japanese word kusudama comes from two Japanese words kusuri (Medicine) and tama (Ball) They were often used with incense of potpourri. These days they are used more as decorative gifts.
Kusudama origami flowers are generally assembled into a large spherical shape. In today's lesson we will be making a single flower. If you make another 11 of these, you can assemble them into a traditional kusudama ball. The flowers that make up the kusudama are beautiful in their own right. I was recently commissioned to fold over 200 of these flowers for the Honda stand at the Melbourne motor show. The flowers proved so popular that by the second day of the 14 day event a security guard was required to stop them all from disappearing even thought they were behind a persex shield. Thankfully they are fairly simple to make and I had help from a very good friend making replacements.
What you will need
• 5 Small squares of paper (I used Post-it notes because they come in such beautiful colors)
• PVA Glue
• About 30 minutes of spare time.
1. Start with the sticky edge on the bottom right side.
Fold the bottom corner to the top to make a triangle.
2. Fold both bottom corners of the triangle to the top point to form a square.
3. Fold the top two layers of the square backwards as shown. It is important that you ensure the folded back edges line up with the edges of the square beneath.
4. Open the newly formed triangles.
Be careful with the sticky side not to tear the paper.
5. Fold the top triangles over so they are level with the edge of the paper.
These flaps should be seperated from the others layers.
6. Fold the triangles along the existing crease.
7. Add a small amount of glue to one side and attach to the other triangle.
8. Your glued petal should look like this.
9. Now follow steps 1-7 to fold four more.
10. Gluing the petals together is quite simple.
Make sure you let the glue dry before adding the next petal.
11. Completed flower.

Jose Mourinho and Chelsea Football Club have "agreed to part company by mutual consent." The club owner, Roman Abromovich, wanted a European title, and Mourinho's Chelsea got to the semi-finals twice in three years, but never further. Mourinho wanted more control over the team, control Abromovich was unwilling to cede.
In other soccer news, we see the classic English sense of fair play. Leicester and Nottingham Forest were playing in the League Cup when Leicester's Colin Clarke suffered heart failure. Forest agreed to abandon the game at half time, when Forest was leading 1-0. In the replay, Leicester allowed Forest to score from kickoff, in order to even everything up. Leicester ended up winning 3-2.
Reminds me of the 1935 friendly between England and Nazi Germany. England won 3-0, but the papers the following day were more proud that the game was playing in a sporting spirit, with headlines like "Three Goals and Not One Foul."

Hollywood Hits the Red Carpet
The opening of The Hollywood Reporters Design Hollywood at the Century showhouse, in collaboration with The Related Companies, brought L.A.'s top designers and industry insiders to The Century building to celebrate rooms specially created by 14 top designers. For Ryan Murphy, the event — and THR's look at his Spanish-style Beverly Hills house for its inaugural Design Issue cover story — marked the end of a project of his own. "With the completion of this issue, I feel like we finished that house," he said. Murphy and two of his shows' stars — Glee's Chris Colfer and The New Normal's Bebe Wood — toured the 7,000-square-foot space with Murphy's designer, Cliff Fong, who praised Hollywood for the creativity that unfolds over two luxury condominiums on the 20th floor of the 2-year-old Related-built tower. "All of us in this community are lucky to have clients who have that kind of freedom and passion for design," he said. Showhouse tickets (Fridays through Sundays until Nov. 18) are available to the public at THR.com/designhollywood. — Rebecca Ford

Dérives 2 was published, a sequence to Dérives, an album from '91 (26 years ago!)
On this album, in which Andreas experiments with different drawing styles, Andreas works with many new artists: Mazan, Dieter, Hyuna and Raven.
It contains the story "l'Ours" (the bear), which he made with Cornette in 2001, and the story "Milk" for which Andreas'
coloring-partner Isa Cochet did not do the coloring, but the scenario. Surprising!
-- Information from Sceneario
Bernie Wrightson died in March of this year. His influence on Andreas' early work is profound. Andreas drew an homage in his memory: Homage to Bernie Wrightson

My 2008 Malibu VLX have been ROBBED ! ( Montréal )
1 Attachment(s)
Hi everyone,
Today is a really sad day for me i was going to the marina to pick up my boat for winterize it and when i arrived at the dock i noticed that my 2008 Malibu VLX was not there. I felt immediately shocked and i asked the guy at the marina if he had to move it in any way ? He said '' no not at all i thought you came to pick it up already. '' With this answer i immediately knew that the worst happened and my boat have been robbed.
I know that this post will probably not help anything at all but anyway, if you heard anything suspicious about my 2008 Malibu VLX Red and Black loaded boat please i would appreciate your best cooperation because i loved my boat and i am really heartbroken today. Yes i was insured but anyway my boat is my boat.
The robbery happened approximately in mid - end September ( last time seen by the marina guy )
I went the last time first week of September
Boat where docked in Montreal South Shore ( Saint-Lambert )
He is a picture of EX-BOAT :mad::banghead:
Dang man sorry about your loss but holy smokes you ain't been on your boat since the end of sept? Maybe she left you for someone that will love her more. :)
dont add insult to injrury...
Oh man I would be heart broken too! So sorry for your loss...
Sorry to hear about that! Good luck.
Wow, hopefully they catch the scum bag. Sorry to hear
Was it in the water or on the trailer? I will keep watch out in Northern Vermont for ya! Shocking, sucks :(
Did you blur the numbers on purpose? That could help people find it.
Ben voyons donc!!!
My black 210 was docked at that marina 3 years ago, yacht club St Lambert. The place always looked sketchy but it is such an awesome city riding spot. Goodluck finding it, will keep my eyes opened in the 514
Now I love the Lachine marina even more!!
Envoyé depuis mon SGH-I747M avec Tapatalk
one real similar on OIB right now... doubt that its it... wouldnt think the person would be that dumb
major bummer man, thats a beautiful boat
Post the HIN and any unique identifying marks. Perhaps a buyer will notice and call the authorities. Unfortunately, with no title requirements for establishing ownership in Canada, only a bill of sale, a new buyer may not know the boat is stolen. Based on the wide window of opportunity, the boat could already be out of the country.
Looks like same color scheme. Trailer appears different though...
Damn that sux. I am pretty sure my insurance wouldn't replace all my stuff, like gear, stereo, ballast improvements. hope yours will and hope the miscreants are brought to justice.
Was it on a lift, with no keys, and did the marina have gates going to the dock. I know these are easily bypassed but curious to what extend the thieves had to go.
Start calling the ports, most of these guys strip them down and load stuff into containers and ship over seas.
That does suck!!! Sorry man. Keep doing what you are doing and get the word out there on the forums so people have their eyes open. This community is actually pretty big. Good luck!
Was this forsale on Autotrader.ca recently?

Never mind that boat on auto trader in mtl is an 07 and slightly different scheme.

Here's a link to another Canadian boat that got stolen http://www.centurioncrew.com/index.p...rst-week-ever/
There is a lot of truth to the fact in Canada you just need a bill of sale no title. I would however compare notes with the guy with the stolen Centurion. You never know it could be the same group of thieves. You might consider Lowjack or an Extrex GPS unit hidden in your new boat if you get one. I heard about a guy who had his Jet Ski Stolen and he had planted a GPS unit in it and the Police found the Jet Ski in several hours.
Guys thank you for all the support and i am really thankfull for you help. I know that we are a small community and maybe i mean maybe we might be able to find something out. As soon as i got to the office on monday i will post my Hull ID and everything so everyone will be able to keep an eye open.
Thanks again
Max, sorry to hear the bad news. When you get a chance, you should log onto WWW dot the Malibu crew.com and post the same information. There are a bunch of great guys over there that will keep an eye out for you

Portrait Photography
I love being able to express my views through a lens, that's what drives me, a shot to show the world what you see, the way you see it.
These are a couple of my friends I used to hang out with when I lived in MN in 2008, Jess and Mal. They were a lot of fun. I normally don't do portrait photography, but occasionally it comes up.

When designing this watch we aimed for a timepiece that could be suitable for any occasion. We believe that the objective has been met. The streamlined shape and design with clean lines and no charge of the case and bracelet are highlighted by the material used in its preparation: Black ceramic and rose gold-plate.
The strength and elegance of both materials and particularly the ceramic inserts in the strap, make this design a timepiece elegant enough for special occasions and yet tough enough to cope with robust everyday use.
Its solid and accurate quartz machinery ensures lasting enjoyment of this timepiece.

an easy (really) crochet edging
I have several stamped-for-embroidery pillowcases that already have the holes along the edge for attaching crochet. I just never knew how to go about attaching it. Well, I sort of knew but, having never crocheted before and finding most instructions daunting, I've never even tried.
But, there may be hope for me yet. Kathleen Mower, on her blog Miss Abigail's Hope Chest, has a tutorial for an easy zig-zag crocheted edging that might be the perfect thing to finish my project. Perhaps yours, too. She added hers to a towel (and it took just 30 minutes!), but it should work equally well for pillowcases. If you want to try this, she suggests skipping over some of the holes, choosing ones that are spaced about 3/8-inch apart; otherwise there won't be enough room for the little diamond shapes.

On convention eve, Obama rips McCain
EAU CLAIRE, Wis. – Barack Obama lashed out Sunday at John McCain, saying the Republican "doesn't really have an economic plan" and his party's approach on foreign policy of "talking tough and acting dumb is not a way to keep you safe and secure."
McCain, meanwhile, allowed surrogates and negative ads to do the attacking as he did no campaigning.
Story Continued Below
At a barbecue at a local park here, Obama took an unusually strident tone towards McCain, now a fixture in the Democrat's speech as a country club Republican who doesn't know how many properties he owns and defines "rich" as those making $5 million.
Obama got carried away at one point — and his language turned a bit salty, by his campaign trail standards, at least.
"If we can spend $10-12 billion a month in Iraq, we sure as hell can pay $10-12 billion right here in the United States of America to put people back to work," he told about 300 supporters, many with young children.
Obama paused. Campaign staff members twisted their heads around, looking for confirmation of what they just heard.
"I apologize, by the way. I usually say 'heck,' especially after church," said Obama, who had emerged an hour earlier from Sunday services at First Lutheran Church here, where the sermon focused on humility. "That sort of slipped out. Sorry, kids."
It was an angrier, more exasperated turn for a candidate better known for a cool and occasionally detached delivery. Some supporters and political observers have been agitating for fiery performances from him on the trail, and he showed signs of such an approach Sunday.
Depicting McCain as out of touch with working families, Obama hit populist notes, saying he was the candidate for the middle class, "the teachers and nurses and the cops and firefighters." McCain, he added, "doesn't really have an economic plan, and everybody sort of knows it."
"So you know who is fighting for you," Obama said. "It's not the folks who are going to be meeting in Minnesota. It's the folks who are meeting in Denver."
Foreign policy may be McCain's claim to the presidency, Obama said, but "talking tough and acting dumb is not a way to keep you safe and secure. We need somebody who talks tough who is going to act smart and be tough."
With Obama dominating the news cycle — and set to do so for the next four days — McCain has chosen a strategy of using surrogates and daily campaign ad rollouts to counterpunch, rather than making public statements himself.
After three days with virtually no public appearances, McCain emerged from his Sedona hideaway and drove 90 minutes in his seven-car motorcade to Phoenix. It was a standard Sunday schedule for many families — coffee run, church, Arizona Diamondbacks ballgame.
The service at North Phoenix Baptist was not without political color. Pastor Dan Yeary showed a clip of last weekend's presidential candidates forum at Saddleback with the Rev. Rick Warren, broadcasting on big screens in the church the question each candidate answered about his greatest moral failure. McCain's pastor did not take sides on each answer, but the Arizona senator received polite applause from his home state congregation.
As McCain attended the baseball game, appearing on the Jumbotron next to Olympic beach volleyball champ Misty May-Trainor, his campaign sought to turn against Obama his selection of Sen. Joe Biden as a running mate.
"In his first event since choosing Joe Biden as his vice presidential nominee, Barack Obama attacked many of Joe Biden's own positions on national security issues. We look forward to the debate between Joe Biden and Barack Obama over whether or not Senator Obama is qualified to be commander in chief," said McCain spokesman Brian Rogers.
For the second time in as many days, the McCain campaign rolled out an attack ad, this one showing clips of Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton criticizing Obama during the Democratic primary campaign. A female narrator says: "She won millions of votes, but isn't on the ticket. Why? For speaking the truth."
The former first lady, who has praised Biden's selection, responded with a statement from her spokeswoman Kathleen Strand.
"Hillary Clinton's support of Barack Obama is clear," Strand said. "She has said repeatedly that Barack Obama and she share a commitment to changing the direction of the country, getting us out of Iraq and expanding access to health care. John McCain doesn't. It's interesting how those remarks didn't make it into his ad."
Obama campaigned separately from Biden, who returned to Delaware ahead of the Democratic National Convention in Denver.
Before Obama boarded his plane from Eau Claire to Chicago, he surprised reporters by breaking from his security and approaching the media scrum to talk up his running mate. "The conversations we've been having over the last couple of days make me absolutely convinced he is the right man for the job," Obama said.
The McCain campaign is expected to continue daily ad rollouts during the Democratic National Convention, and spokesman Tucker Bounds said the theme is that the election is "about a choice, not a destiny."
But for the first half of the week, McCain will keep his appearances to a minimum, with two California fundraisers scheduled, a taping of NBC's "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" and a speech to a veterans group in Phoenix.
Kady reported from Phoenix.

Berne: Four Caribbean soccer officials have been banned, including Jamaica Football Federation (JFF) president Horace Burrell, for their part in a cash-for-votes scandal in the run-up to this year`s FIFA presidential election.
Two other officials were reprimanded and fined by FIFA`s ethics committee, one was reprimanded and another five were given warnings, FIFA said in a statement on Friday.
The longest ban from all football-related activity, 18 months, was handed to Franka Pickering, president of the British Virgin Islands FA, who was also fined 500 Swiss francs ($560).
The cases are related to a meeting in Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago on May 10 and 11 where it was alleged that FIFA presidential candidate Mohamed bin Hammam handed out bribes to Caribbean members of CONCACAF -- the regional body for soccer in North and Central America and the Caribbean.
Former Asian soccer chief Bin Hammam has since been banned for life by FIFA but has protested his innocence along with ex-CONCACAF and Caribbean Football Union (CFU) president Jack Warner of Trinidad and Tobago.
Warner, like Bin Hammam a FIFA executive committee member when the scandal blew up, was also under investigation by FIFA for allegedly offering bribes but resigned before the probe was completed.
Bin Hammam withdrew his candidacy before the presidential vote, allowing Sepp Blatter to be re-elected for a fourth successive term as head of soccer`s world governing body.
Several officials described receiving brown envelopes containing $40,000 in cash at CFU meeting.
Acting CFU president Burrell, a long-time Warner ally, has been banned for six months, three of which have been suspended for a probationary period of two years.
The suspension means Burrell will have to withdraw his candidacy for the CFU presidency.
The election will be held in Jamaica next month and will now see fellow Jamaican, Ralph Anthony James, going up against another Warner ally Harold Taylor of Trinidad & Tobago.
Osiris Guzman, president of the Dominican Republic FA, and Ian Hypolite, general secretary of the St Vincent and the Grenadines FA, were suspended for 30 days, 15 of which were suspended for a probationary period of six months.
They were also fined 300 Swiss francs each by the ethics committee, headed by former Switzerland international Claudio Sulser.
Aubrey Liburd (British Virgin Islands) and Hillaren Frederick, president of the U.S. Virgin Islands FA, were reprimanded and fined 300 Swiss francs each while Anthony Johnson, president of the St Kitts and Nevis FA, was reprimanded.
David Hinds and Mark Bob Forde (both Barbados), Richard Groden (Trinidad & Tobago), Yves Jean-Bart (president of the Haiti FA) and Horace Reid (JFF general secretary) were warned.
Jean-Bart was injured in last year`s earthquake in Haiti and subsequently gave a lengthy interview to a TV channel describing the destruction.
Felix Ledesma (Dominican Republic) was considered not to have committed any violation.
The cases of David Frederick (Cayman Islands) and Joseph Delves (president of the St. Vincent and Grenadines FA) were closed since they are no longer football officials.
"Should they return to football official positions, their cases would be examined again by the Ethics Committee," FIFA said.
Last month, FIFA handed a 26-month ban to Colin Klass, president of the Guyana FA, for his involvement in the Caribbean Football Union meeting in May.
The decisions came one week before a FIFA executive committee meeting where Blatter is expected to give a progress report on the fight against corruption which has rocked soccer`s governing body in the last year.
