text: Ed Cesnalis Report post Posted January 5 Thanks @FlyingMonkey and @Runtoeat for painting the picture for me where tailstrikes (and bent gear that Roger talks about) come from. The scenario is the pilot (prolly lacking target sight picture close enough to the runway) bleeds of the speed (which happens rapidly in a CT) at 5 feet above the runway. This happens without controlling or permitting sink and the result is damage. This scenario seems to be motivation for fast landings including for 'beginners'. Now I understand. Is speed the right fix? I think the right fix is to bleed off the speed differently. If you allow sink as you bleed off speed this won't / can't happen. If you blow it you get a bounce and your judgement improves next time. CTs loose energy so fast that float gets lost in the golf swing and if it doesn't, if you have a float phase then subtract a knot. Holding it off at 5' will result in damage but why would you? The funny thing about adding speed to fix is you can enter with the additional speed and still hold it off at 5' and that's why its a funny fix (to me).

Stephen Innes, Head of Trading, Asia-Pacific at OANDA, Singapore
Bank Negara Malaysia has slammed the move to introduce ringgit futures on the Singapore Stock Exchange, saying it goes against Malaysia's foreign exchange policy and rules. Stephen Innes, Head of Trading in Asia-Pacific at OANDA in Singapore weighs in on the issue.
BNM Stance on Ringgit Currency Derivatives Products in Offshore Market
The recent introduction of the ringgit futures at the Singapore Exchange (SGX) and the Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) or ICE Futures Singapore is inconsistent with Malaysia's foreign exchange administration (FEA) policy and rules.
The Malaysian ringgit is a non-internationalised currency and thus, offshore trading of ringgit, in any form whether as a non-deliverable forward traded out of offshore financial centres or as a futures, options and other derivative contracts on exchanges outside of Malaysia, is against Malaysia's policy.
Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) would like to remind all market participants to observe the existing FEA rules. Contravention of the FEA is an offence under the Financial Services Act 2013 and Islamic Financial Services Act 2013. Appropriate action under the law will be taken against any person who does not comply with prevailing rules and regulations. Foreign participants should access the onshore ringgit foreign exchange market to meet their financial needs, either directly with onshore licensed financial institutions or their Appointed Overseas Office (AOO).

Tags: 1980, Double Fantasy, John, Yoko
9 Responses to "STARTING OVER:"
Great photos …especially the one of a 'resting' John. I am currently reading Ken Sharp's book 'Starting Over: The Making of John & Yoko's Double Fantasy', a wonderful account of that period. The comments & photos give the reader a sneak peak into what was happening in the studio. It is the definitive tribute to John, Yoko, the producers & musicians that made 'Double Fantasy' an intimate & creative success!
Is there a date or source on the limo picture? It looks to be fairly late 1980.
I too love those pictures of John in late 1980. Maybe because we now know what happened that I find a special meaning in all of those photos. I too love Ken Sharp's book and really touched me by reading the way they describe the humor, warmth and character of this unique man (John Lennon). He was so amazing.
By the way did anyone notice that John had so many different hair styles in the last few months of his life. However what was kinda errie was that I watched Nowhere Boy and then ran across those photos on the last day and he had just cut his hair like his Teddy Boy days and was wearing the leather jacket and the jeans with the cuffs rolled up. He was almost back to where he started.
He looked very good on whatever day this was: totally timeless.
James, you're right. John did have several different 'looks' during this time and yes, he did go back to his 'teddy boy' days which fit the sound & style of 'Starting Over', didn't it? The look in the photos above is my favorite though … he looked relaxed, happy & handsome.
I loved the 1980 pictures of John. He went through several hair styles, almost as much as he did through the entire 70s, in just one year.
Towards the end he was going back to his "roots"… Roots, get it? He had the the Beatlish mop top hairstyle going on. Then on his last day, he got a slicked back haircut and wore a black leather jacket, black shirt, cuffed jeans with black boots… Looking very much like the late 50s rocker he started out as. He looked great!
According to Mimi, she said that in the last phone call, John was saying that he missed Liverpool and wanted to go back there for sometime. He did seem to be reconnecting with his past.
Thank you very much for sharing these. : )
Those pics were taken on Sep.18,1980,during photo sessions for DF cover art.The session were held on 15th and 18th. I heard that the cover art was taken on the first day,so they seems to 18th(different shirt).

Rabbits in the moon
I finally finally... finally made what I LOVED!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wagashi--> usagi. They are bunny form bean paste mixed with wheat flour and steamed. They are one of the Wagashi that I enjoy ALOT!!!!!
Yes! It's very hard to eat these cute bunnies... all you want is to look at them especially when you have both of them (a white and a pink one). It's almost like they are talking to each other and looking at you with their big bunny eyes. :D
But here they are. No, you can't eat them. Yes, you may play with them. Or you may just put them on your desk and look at them while you get very tired at work... or just day dreaming. :D

As part of an aggressive effort to convince the federal Health Care Financing Administration to move its headquarters from Baltimore County to downtown, officials of the Schmoke administration are making available a two-acre parcel near the Camden Yards stadium for the project and have launched a search for a development team.
The Baltimore County government doesn't have a site to offer but is working closely with eight development teams that already control land in the county and would like to build the 664,000-square-foot project.
The two jurisdictions are taking different approaches as bidding heats up for the HCFA project, which will serve as the national headquarters for the Medicare and Medicaid systems. Congress agreed in 1989 to appropriate funds to consolidate the agency, whose 3,000 employees are currently spread through five buildings in Woodlawn. The new building is expected to cost $97 million, and the federal government will buy it once it is completed.

Kennel Club Breed Standard ReviewTuesday, October 14th, 2008
Update on Previous blog – Kennel Club v BBC
The Kennel Club have responded to the BBC TV programme and its implied accusation of complacency in the face of genetic faults causing health problems in some pedigree dogs.
The Kennel Club has agreed that more needs to be done and have been taking action.
Looking through the statement on their website Link they appear to be taking the problem seriously but still seem to underestimate number of dogs affected by genetic health problems.
"Thankfully, few of us, or of the general pet owning public, will have seen any of the problems which were portrayed as commonplace on the TV programme. Neither the 160,000 visitors to Crufts this year, nor the many millions of other dog loving viewers who watch it on television, will have recognised the description disabled mutants in a freakish, garish beauty pageant from what they saw which was beautiful, healthy animals interacting with proud and loving owners! This is the reality, and while it is of course legitimate to investigate dog health, we do not feel that it is legitimate to portray the findings of those investigations in such a one-sided way which completely ignores the efforts of all those most closely involved with dog health."
Last week The Kennel Club announced a new breed standard for the Pekingese they are moving away from the flat face profile. This was a cause of the breeds' respiratory problems. They have also announced…
"A breed health plan will be coordinated for each of the UKs 209 pedigree breeds and will benefit from the extensive research that has been funded by the Kennel Club in conjunction with renowned veterinary research centres over the past 40 years. This will include updated breed standards to ensure that no dog is bred for features that might prevent it from seeing, walking and breathing freely."
On the 10th of October together with Dogs Trust they called for the government to support a review onto dog breeding in the UK. They have called on the Government to give the Kennel Club statutory powers to make its Accredited Breeder Scheme compulsory throughout the country – a system that would make it illegal for non-members to produce or sell puppies.
Hopefully good news for the future of pedigree dog breeding / showing in the UK

Happy 1st Birthday, Harry!Monday, October 13th, 2008
Harry is 1 year old today and marked the occasion by finally lifting his leg to pee! Ok, that might sound like an odd thing to get excited about but I thought it would never happen, I kept checking that he had the necessary equipment. He's finally a big boy now. Harry has had a good day I think, we took him for a long walk, followed by a birthday bath (he needed it, stinky boy), a nice long nap, a toy and mince for his tea. Now though, he's lying upside down, snoring and dribbling on the carpet, that walk must have caught up with him.
Kennel Club Complains About BBCMonday, September 29th, 2008
The organisers of Crufts Dog Show The Kennel Club have lodged a complaint with Ofcom over the BBC programme "Pedigree Dogs Exposed". and are looking into the contract with the BBC for Crufts TV coverage.
If you missed this programme click through this link to BBC News
or check out youtube.
With the Dogs Trust and RSPCA withdrawing from stands at Discover Dogs in November and at Crufts next March. Mark Evans RSPCA chief veterinary adviser added
"Dog shows using current breed standards as the main judging criteria actively encourage both the intentional breeding of deformed and disabled dogs and the inbreeding of closely related animals. There is compelling scientific evidence that the health and welfare of hundreds of thousands of pedigree dogs is seriously compromised as a result."
From personal experience, on this subject I can't remain impartial and see this issue from both sides, but I've yet to find someone who can. We've had dogs through the classes who have been affected by breeding for certain characteristics and its heartbreaking to see the owners deal with something they have no control over.
Much closer to home , my parents have had a lot of heartache over the years with their present dog. KK is the second dog that they had got from the same breeder but from a totally different line ( a very top winning kennel, I might add) because the original line that our first dog was from was now extinct. To date, KK has been treated for retained testicle, hip dysplasia, food intolerances, bumble bee allergy, periodontal disease, various operations to laser his eyes to reduce ulceration, saliva gland re-routed to his eyes to do the job of his now dyfunct tear gland and to top it all off now, he has a large nasal tumour that will ultimately take his life. My dad spends his days catering to KK's every whim and it worries me sick how he will be when KK's gone. I know how wrapped up he is in the dog that I fear my dad will disappear too when he no longer has KK by his side.
This is an issue that will be emotionally argued on all sides but I have to say a big thank you to the BBC for making it more of a publically known issue rather than a privately fought one.

The premise in this first adventure in the Stay Alive series feels familiar and cannot claim the originality or authenticity of Gary Paulsen's Hatchet (1987); neither does it show the careful characterization and scene setting of the author's own books for teens.
A small plane plummets into a remote lake in Alaska. Besides the pilot, passengers include members of a TV show: seven preteens plus one dad, the producer and a basset hound. Except for the dog, the characters are mostly stereotypes. There's the brave, decisive Eagle Scout, the able cool girl, the selfish pessimist, the bumbling adult. A few are killed off quickly, and with so little character development, it is hard to care about the survivors' circumstances, which are fairly sketchily described. Although each part begins with an interesting survival tip, the action lags, reading more like a camp to-do list, until the group decides to send out an exploration party. Those at camp experience an uneventful rescue, while those on the trail see some hardships including, for one, a death-defying swim down a set of rapids. An underlying theme seems to indicate that if they had only had a knife, things might have been different. In an unexpected closing scene, one finally floats up from the wreckage long after the rescue.
However, they have always had a hatchet, and many youngsters will wish the characters had read the classic of the same name. (Adventure. 8-12)

Rejected: Again
Here is an abstract that I sent to Dr Nathaniel Garrelts for his forthcoming edited collection of GTA:
Of Sins, Vices and Pecados: The Cultural Context of Videogame Play
Using a case study of Grand Theft Auto 3: Vice City this paper will examine the cultural context of videogame consumption in
It was promptly (and politely) declined, as the editor wished to focus on "essays that specifically addressed a Grand Theft Auto game from a defined theoretical perspective". I'm pretty sure he got about 1000 abstracts considering just about every paper at the PCA/ACA conference was on GTA. In fact theres a big scandal about the 'Hot Coffee' scences in Australia at the moment, thats got a special panel devouted to it at the IE in Sydney this weekend (that I couldn't go to - because no $$$). In fact I'm starting to the GTA can stand in for computer games as a whole... Grand Theft Auto Studies, sounds cool? I mean it's not like it's a lame game, but I'm kinda over it... ...I guess every academic is just studying what the kids are playing (it means they can watch them over their shoulder rather than playing them, themselves!!), and games like Grim Fandango are irrelevant and researching them could not possibly reveal anything about computer games.
Anyway I'm happy because it means I don't have to write it right now, although I'm working on something to do with GTA because I just got so much data about it on my fieldwork in Venezuela.

What is CALTA21?
CALTA21 is an intervention model initiative that builds professional capacity to empower adult immigrant English language learners (ELLs). The foundations of CALTA21 are the Professional Development Institute and the curriculum "Identity, Portraiture and Photography." Evaluation demonstrates that participating ELLs have improved their language skills and taken ownership of museum experiences in the curriculum's 30-hour process of transformative learning, which culminates in students curating successful museum visits for families and friends. Through CALTA21, literacy instructors have the opportunity to gain new understanding of the value of authentic, art-based discussions and strengthen teaching practices when hearing students' immigrant narratives in spaces of public value. CALTA21 encourages museum educators and docents to embrace the philosophy of shared meaning-making. It builds communities of global learning and civic engagement, while strengthening the immigrant voice and helping museums to maintain their relevance and cultural roles.
Guiding Principles:
CALTA21's guiding principles are reflected across the curriculum and support every unit.
Principle One:
Every person has the right to equal access to aesthetic encounters with art and to museums in a meaningful and independent way and institutions have a responsibility to engage all community members. The curriculum empowers participants to embrace art and museums as resources for learning, enjoyment and global understanding.
Principle Two:
There is inherent value to all points of view and backgrounds. Participants' personal stories as imimigrants are at the core of the curriculum and are used as the springboard for acquiring new knowledge. The curriculum encourages students to access prior knowledge and experiences and see them as an asset and not a deficit.
Principle Three:
Teaching and learning should be a dialogue based on shared authority. Every participant in CALTA21 (students, teachers and museum educators) has an expertise and has an opportunity to share it with their fellow participants and learn from each other's knowledge.
Principle Four:
Art and culture are powerful catalysts for developing literacy skills. Art addresses complex issues. Adult participants access higher order thinking skills using their senses (perception), emotions and cognition (often thinking in their native language) to look at and find meaning in art. The curriculum offers them the opportunity to collectivelly explore complex ideas and to think in abstract, to speculate and to infer while they build lower order thinking skills in their acquired language, such as vocabulary and sentence construction.
Principle Five:
Situated and contextualized learning fosters transformative experiences. The curriculum prepares students to become teachers and facilitators for their families and friends in a public environment, such as a museum. Visual literacy and art anchor the learning experience and the practice of literacy and critical thinking skills is set in a real life environment.
Principle Six:
Museums must embrace their new expanded roles – inclusion, access to knowledge, civic engagement and democratic practice. The curriculum encourages the strengthening of the immigrant voice and full civic participation. Participants shape their cultural identities while they recover their personal immigrant narratives and engage in relevant art discussions in a space of public value. CALTA21 provides museums with an opportunity to include an underrepresented audience in a meaningful and sustainable way.
The CALTA21 IMLS National Leadership Grant Period 2011-2014
Institute of Museum and Library Services
CALTA21 is a model initiative funded through a National Leadership Grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS). The intent of this initiative, led by Queensborough Community College of the City University of New York (CUNY), is to build the capacity of museum-community college partnerships, to empower adult immigrant English language learners (ELL) while strengthening their literacy and critical thinking skills through visual literacy and simultaneously assisting them in enriching their social and cultural capital.
Under the leadership of Patricia Lannes, Project Director and QCC's two Principal Investigators, Professor Kitty Bateman and Dr. Margot Edlin, CALTA21 will be implemented with its four partnering museums: El Museo del Barrio, the Rubin Museum of Art, The Godwin-Ternbach Museum at Queens College and the Katonah Museum of Art.
During this grant period (2011-2014), CALTA21's development and implementation process includes:
- A continual cycle of testing, revision and redesign of the two project cornerstones: our professional development institute and the curriculum
- The creation of a manual to serve as resource guide for museums and community college literacy programs when launching a partnership
- The design and implementation of a dissemination plan that focuses on national implementation opportunities and includes this website where all materials will be available free of charge
- A culminating symposium will gather participants to share their experiences and evaluators to share their findings for future replication of the model
Who does CALTA21 serve?
The project's target audiences are:
- Adult English Speakers 0f Other Languages (ESOL) seeking to develop their English literacy skills and their families
- Museum professionals and volunteers
- Faculty from community college literacy programs and staff of community based organizations
What does CALTA21 do?
CALTA21 uses art and museums as catalysts for learning. It is based upon the premise that visual literacy skills are transferable to other literacies and that art can be a powerful conduit to finding meaning in text. While looking at art and participating in facilitated discussions and recreating their immigrant stories, adult ELLs build new vocabulary, strengthen critical thinking skills, engage in dialogue, develop intercultural capital, articulate interpretations and develop a voice that draws from their wealth of experiences and background knowledge. CALTA21 builds an intercultural community of global learning and civic engagement.
How do we do it?
CALTA21 is a model initiative, resulting from a continual cycle of design-implementation-evaluation and revision of its two main cornerstones: a professional development institute (PDI) and the curriculum Identity, Portraiture and Photography.
What are the outcomes of CALTA21?
Measurable outcomes and resources include:
- Improved literacy skills and increased social/cultural capital for ELL participants and their families
- Capacity building for museum and literacy educators
- The inception of museum-community college partnerships both regionally and across the nation
- New practices, materials and resources to support the ongoing implementation of CALTA21, all of which will substantially extend the benefit of IMLS's National Leadership Grant (NLG) investment and increase museum access and participation for thousands of America's newest residents
Who supports CALTA21's implementation and dissemination?
CALTA21's implementation and dissemination plans are coordinated by:
- The project team, Queensborough Community College, CUNY, the CUNY Office of Academic Affairs Language and Literacy Programs under the leadership of Dr. Leslee Oppenheim,
- Visual Understanding in Education (VUE), the organization that created and supports VTS
- The participating museums during this grant period: El Museo del Barrio, The Rubin Museum of Art, The Godwin-Ternbach Museum at Queens College and The Katonah Museum of Art.
- Extensive presentations in local, regional, national and international professional conferences by Patricia Lannes and Kitty Bateman
Aligned with IMLS's goals of creating models that can be implemented nationally, CALTA21 will develop a national network of organizations interested in implementing the model. By virtue of the collaborative implementation of CALTA21, partnerships will form and grow open pathways for some of the country's newest residents to enhance language skills, develop cultural and social capital, facilitate access to higher education, and support workforce development, while simultaneously helping each institution expand its reach and maintain its relevance in increasingly diverse communities.
For more information on becoming a CALTA21 implementation site, please contact Patricia Lannes, Project Director or phone her at 516-313-1091.

Halloween Chili
In an attempt to encourage a little nutrition on Halloween, I always make a big pot of chili for dinner. I let it simmer in the slow cooker, and everyone can help themselves to a bowl in between Trick-or-Treating or scary movie viewing. It's been our tradition for years. I adore making our Halloween chili.
In a perfect storm of reasons that included a 36 hour trip to OH and back, a monster of a cold, and simple forgetfulness, I neglected to buy ingredients for my chili. I lamented this matter from a horizontal position on my couch the day before Halloween, as I nursed a wicked virus. What would I serve for Halloween dinner? My kids would be disappointed. Forgetting to make the Halloween chili was almost as bad as not serving turkey for Thanksgiving dinner. I hated to break tradition, but I had no energy to shop for ingredients or cook. Oh, well, I thought, we'll just have "whatever." I'd try to muster up the energy to make one of my go-to meals, like grilled cheese sandwiches. Or I'd just open a can of soup. Whatever. But still, I felt like I'd be letting everyone down.
An out-of-the-blue phone call came later that evening from a friend I hadn't spoken to in a while. "I saw on Facebook that you're not feeling well," she said. "I'm going to drop off some food. You can eat it tomorrow for dinner." It was pot of chili!
Later, she told me that while she had been making the chili, God whispered to her to bring some to our family. So we had chili after all for Halloween dinner, lovingly made by a dear friend, along with her homemade chocolate chip cookies!
That chili meal from my friend was no coincidence. It was a sweet, tender gift from a loving Father who showed me once again that He sees my needs, cares about them, and is so intimately involved in my life that He made the chili dinner happen for me. He covered all the details! From His heart through an obedient godly friend's hands, He fed us our traditional Halloween meal, because He's good like that. And candidly, it tasted way better than mine.

Denim Jumpers Are Not My Style
I cannot believe how fast this summer has flown! This, the last week before school begins, always brings me to a place of wistfulness, and grieving the end of leisurely beach days, sleeping a bit later, etc. But I am gearing up to begin homeschooling my third-grader next week. And because I've been getting the usual looks askance and questions about why I am, once again, embarking on this journey, I thought I'd format this post into a Q & A based on some of the most popular questions I've been asked about homeschooling. Sound good?
1) Why, for the love of God, would you want to go back to having your most active child home with you every single day, when you could, in contrast, have six straight hours of freedom Monday through Friday?
Simply put, I want to soak up every precious minute with my youngest. I have a 20yo who is on the brink of moving out into her own life, and so I know how very fast these parenting years go by. Little Squirt is a joy to be around (on most days), and he is a "sponge." Everything interests him. I want to treasure this year of teaching him, especially because he wants me to. Soon enough, he'll be into girls, and I'll be relegated to the "uncool." At present, he still thinks I'm awesome.
2) Do you think the school system is the devil?
Absolutely not! I adored both Little Squirt's kindergarten and first/second grade teachers. I loved the principal and the school. There wasn't a thing I disliked about the system. He may go back for fourth grade. This is a personal decision, and one I feel called to by God. We're taking this year by year.
3)Do you think I'm an awful parent for wanting to send my children to school?
No. I've sent all three of my children to school at one time or another. And the big kids chose to attend public high school. Homeschooling is not for everyone. I would never judge anyone's choice of how they choose to educate their children. It's a very personal decision, and each child is unique.
4) Are you really the "homeschooling type"?
Um....I'm not sure I understand the question. Is there a stereotype of homeschooling mothers? I was my child's first teacher, and I love him and know him more than anyone else does. I've homeschooled for seven years in the past. I know I can manage third grade with my youngest. Does that answer your question?
5) I guess what I was really asking is will you now wear denim jumpers and grow your own food organically?
No and no. I'll continue to dress in my sporty/classic style, and wear my favorite Gap jeans. Or sweats on my bloated days. And I abhor gardening. I'll still shop at the grocery store, especially Joseph's for my favorite guacamole, and Trader Joe's for the jasmine green tea that I love. I wish I could raise a few chickens, though, since they're so cute. But the chicken ordinance did not pass in my town, sadly. I'm sometimes lazy and make boxed stuffing and put out a bowl of grapes for dinner and call it the "vegetable." So,in other words, I will still be the same ME with all my usual qualities and quirkiness. I just will be adding homeschooling as an addition to the quirkiness.
And, last but not least, the most popular question of all:
6) Will your child be socialized?
Have you met my youngest?? The child is such an extrovert, he will talk to a brick wall! (True story.) I don't believe that socialization best takes place during the school day in a group of his peers. Have you ever mingled in the schoolyard during recess? It's not always a pretty picture. Living real life and the interaction with people of various ages is socialization. But just so you're not concerned about him, I'll let you know that we've joined a homeschooling group where we'll do field trips with the other moms and kids. And I've signed him up for a homeschool swimming class, a martial arts class, and an Adventure Club. Plus he's in a small group at church. He also has several homeschooling friends, and other buddies that attend school. No worries, people. He won't be raised by wolves.
So, there you have it. Here's to a great school year for us all!

Palm Trees And Sunsets
I'm thoroughly enjoying this vacation and soaking up every bit of it, especially with the realization that we will be heading back to home and reality this weekend. The past two weeks have been the perfect mix of rest and play. Super Hubs and I agree on that balance for vacations, which is one of the many ways that we fit together so well. We like to do some adventuring and exploring, but we also relish our down-time. I've read 6 books, and I'm guessing my husband has read twice as many. We've meandered along the shore, leisurely kicking the waves and gathering shells. We've enjoyed a date night almost every other evening, which often was just a glass of wine under the palm trees.
We do, however, have an active nine-year-old who is not content to sit for hours on the beach with a novel. Little Squirt has been up at dawn every day, asking for the agenda. I took him on a horseback trail ride, in which he proudly road his horse, Casey, up in the front behind the guide and talked her ear off for the hour. He was a bit disappointed, though, because he expected lassos and Indians. He inquired if he could take Casey home with us, reassuring the guide that he had "lots of carrots." He felt insulted that she wouldn't allow him to.
We've taken numerous bike rides on the beautiful trails, sometimes stopping to feed horses or visiting the petting zoo. We've gone cruising on the Vagabond, spotting dolphins frolicking in the water. Little Squirt was baffled that they didn't jump through hoops and wave like they do at Sea World.
Rock Star has set his own pace on this vacation, sleeping in, working out, and watching sports. But he's joined us for dinners out, walks to Harbour Town for ice cream, and the occasional beach day.
It's been a good two weeks. For all the sunny days, starfish sightings, fabulous cuisine, palm trees and sunsets, I am grateful.

Dancing With Danger
Today was apparently Sea Life Petting Zoo Day at the ocean. On my morning walk down the shore, I nearly stepped on a jelly fish. And then I ran into a beached baby sting ray. Under normal circumstances, like watching him backstroke in an aquarium, I'd find the sting ray kind of adorable. He was all flappy and scared on the sand, and trying to get in the water. But he had a stinger poking midway down his tail. And I knew that stinger could sting. That stinger could maim, even. Or kill. His cute-and-adorable act did not fool me. I wanted him incarcerated. However, a gentleman with a bigger heart for sea life than I have used a beach chair to flip him back into the water. So off he swam, in search of human prey to sting, I am certain.
Later, I was relaxing in my beach chair, reading a book with my toes in the water. Suddenly, a lifeguard down the beach madly blew his whistle, signaling beachers to get out of the water. I made sure my husband and son were safely on sand before making a bee-line to the lifeguard to find out what was what. Apparently, a sand shark was spotted by a fisherman. Sand sharks are not friendly. In fact, tangoing with one can lead to a painful death.
I ran back to my family to tell them about the sand shark, when I noticed a large crowd had formed around my beach chair. Apparently, according to my husband, a rogue eel had taken a liking to my beach chair and was swimming happily around it, when it was noticed by a some bystanders who screamed, which caused the eel to begin racing all over the sand. The lifeguard again blew his whistle, and shouted for all swimmers to come ashore while the renegade eel darted between feet. (At that point, the ocean was probably safer than the beach, but that wasn't written in the lifeguard's handbook.) The killer eel was eventually picked up by the tail by a very brave or very stupid vacationer, and flung into the ocean. I gathered my beach things and told my family it was time to go home.
The point of my post is that the sand shark saved my life. If I hadn't run down the beach to hear about the sand shark, I would have been sitting in my beach chair when the eel came visiting, and that would have been the end of me. If the eel hadn't done me in with its electric shock or however it murders human beings, I would have died of a heart attack. So I owe one to the sand shark. But that doesn't mean I want to be friends.
Actually, I'd enjoy the ocean so much more if it didn't have all the sea life swimming in it. I'd allow the dolphins to stay because I view them as dogs with fins. But everything else can go. Except for the harmless starfish and sand dollars.
In any case, I made an executive decision that tomorrow will be a Pool Day.

It's Day #2 of our Hilton Head Island vacation and I am about one-third relaxed. It always takes us high-strung types a few days of down-time to fully unwind. This vacation comes after a few intense weeks. A son in a bad car accident (but okay, thank you, Lord) which led to the totaling of my little Toyota and the purchase of my new Sorrento, left us drained. And the Casey Anthony trial, which I felt an intense connection to and my subsequent deep disappointment over the verdict of acquittal (more about my feelings on that later) has made my head spin. God is always sovereign, and I am feeling grateful to Him for our perfectly-timed getaway to the ocean.
We've spent two days at the beach, swimming and sunning, and my corpse-white shade of skin is beginning to tan. I've devoured two novels, watched golfers from our master suite deck, and refereed several arguments between my sons. I watched an osprey eat a squirrel, and made friends with a little blue salamander by the pool.
I love these days, when my biggest decision is what to do for dinner. Ahhh....now for a nap.

Guilty As Charged
Breaking News: I have momentarily interrupted this blog due to the Casey Anthony Trial.
I seriously need an intervention. I have been obsessed with this case for the past three years. I even drove to see The Anthonys home on a trip to Orlando last year with a friend, much to her mortification. My family is going to Orlando in November, so guess where I'm going to drag them?
In between entertaining Little Squirt with movies, beach days and trips to the library, I have been glued to my computer to watch the trial live stream. And when I'm not watching the trial, I am reading blogs about the trial or observing talking heads discuss the trial or viewing the HLN evening lineup of shows that review the trial. I don't know what I'm going to do with myself when this is all over. Big sigh.
I now know so much about trial law that I believe I could pass the Bar. I could be an alternate to the alternate jurors. I am peppering my conversations with legalese like, "Objection!" and "What says the defense?" People are beginning to think I'm weird.
I have always been interested in the mystery genre of reading and tv watching. This bizarre, real life case of a FL mother accused of murdering her 2yo has pulled on my heartstrings. I am thirsty for justice!
So, I'll be back. I'm just a woman consumed at present.

A large amount of my day is taken looking at barcodes. Whether it be to try and work out why someone can't get it to be read ("have you checked it actually is a barcode sir?") or simply geeking up on something I have to say they do lose some excitement; if they ever had any. Therefore I found it fascinating when I came across this website with 12 examples of Barcode art. To see the mundane bars of data which I encounter every day used so differently was refreshing. Although some of them used the similarity to a cage there were several of them simply showcasing the strange, and very subtle, interest in the shape of a barcode. I don't think I'd actually like the barcode Chandelier or Sofa (ouch) in my home or office but their existence somewhere is nice to know.
This is not my first encounter with barcodes as art however; QR codes are used widely within the world of marketing and therefore interact with consumers in a way most barcodes do not. This inevitably leads to people trying to make them more appealing and more attention grabbing. It is not uncommon to see a barcode out of the usual black/white mould these days. Some take this one step further and turn the QR Codes into functional artwork as shown by this website which describes how. As a company who provide barcode reading software software this is essentially a nightmare as they are deliberately taking away the large redundancy provided by QR Codes which make them so effective. I have personally found several examples where so much data has been removed the barcode is no longer readable.It has also occurred to me that by turning the QR Code into art it becomes far less obvious to the consumer what they should do with it.
Our website is covered with pictures of barcode type images appearing in nature, mainly of course in the form of tree lines. Check them out for yourself here.

A retirement coach will not only help to plan financial aspects, but also will help the retiree consider how they will spend their time after they retire and how their work friends will behave once they don't see each other everyday. When people plan to retire they automatically think of leisure but often retirees don't know how they want to spend their increased leisure time.
Family and marital relationships can also become a source of stress once you have retired unless you take steps to insure this doesn't happen. How will your partner react or be influenced by your retirement? If you are both retiring at the same time or you are joining a spouse who is already retired, how will it be to spend a significantly larger proportion of time with them? How much time together or apart will each of you need and want? What anticipations do your relatives have about all the free time that you may have, and do those expectations complement what you plan to do?
As you can see, planning for your retirement can be far more complicated than you thought and the support and structure of a retirement coach may be just what you need to help things run more smoothly.

As the lighthouse
Sends its beam
Across the waters
In the night
And through the fog
Reaching and
Forever changing
The lives
Of those it touches
At just the right time
So is the writer's pen.
by Donna Smith, 2016
The really fun thing about Donna's poem, is she had it printed on a canvas bag.
This is really handy because it holds my journal, pens, colored pencils and sketch book. I take this with me when I take my walks and go adventuring.
I had my Joy-Write bag with me today when I took this picture.

As part of the Attoi ( Association of Tourism Trade Organisations, India ) General Body meeting I had an opportunity to spend some quality time at the new resort – Lake Canopy in Alleppey – Alappuzha. I awaiting its launch, The resort is situated just 4 kms away from the Finishing point in Alleppey.
This resort is promoted by EM Baby Group. Already well known for their resort in thekkady, called Forest Canopy, has toplisted in reviews with Trip Advisor. Meeting the same standard for their latest property also, at Alleppey they have 28 exotic rooms with spacious balcony and beautifully decored with 4 star facilities. The same has been categorized into 3 cottages with private swimming pool, 5 cottages with Jacuzzi and 20 premium rooms. All the rooms are overlooking to the Lake Vembanad and a prodigious swimming pool which is a remarkable add on.
Keeping the interest of inmates & to give them a stupendous time within the resort, they have landscaped the resort very classy. The guests can spend their leisure time in front of the resort adjacent to the bank of great Vembanad Lake in Alleppey.
While a stay in this resort you can also explore the beauty of Alleppey – Alappuzha. Go for a houseboat trip or Shikkara boat trip. Spending evenings at Alleppey beach or going for a Village walk for a soothing & peaceful experience.

Where did you get these? :O They're all from DJ Max :D

Originally rather large lossless BMPs on a .ISO you can get from Pireze. I'll see if I can dig up the link.
Ugh, bmps. In some ways they're alright (compressed into a super small archive for easy downloading, but then takes up gigabytes of space when uncompressed), in other ways they suck horribly (see aforementioned space usage issue). Png is king unless it's a cg pack filled with hundreds of images, I tend to dislike 1GB downloads that could've been 50mb if they'd used bmps instead heh.
... now THAT explains why that Little Busters CG pack I downloaded was small when RARed... but after unzipping it ate like 1% of my HDD (and my HDD is 120 GB :/ ).
lol yep, Japan and 7z bmp archives go together like strawberries and cream. I've had cg packs unpacking from 90mb archives to 15GB of bmps, and on one occasion an archive of about 150mb extracted to some 30GB. I really don't like to think just how long it must take to compress those.
