Analytic psychotherapy is widely practised in the NHS and in many other settings. Evidence based research has shown it to be effective in alleviating or resolving a wide range of psychological difficulties.
Analytic psychotherapists draw on insights from psychoanalysis to help people to understand themselves and how they relate to others. Whether working in an individual, group or couples therapy setting, all analytic psychotherapists see the therapy as a process of exploration. They follow the client's communications as they emerge in the therapy and generally do not give advice. The therapist will also use the relationship which develops during the therapy to further insight and self-understanding.
Analytic psychotherapy is similar to some counselling approaches but aims to address difficulties at greater depth. Psychotherapy Sussex offers the assurance that all our members have undertaken several years rigorous training. This will have included extensive personal therapy and in depth work with clients over a long time and under close supervision. What is Analytic Psychotherapy?

Kiihko Dance is a contemporary dance company founded by Marja Koponen and Geneva Rosett-Hafter. Marja and Geneva met at Laban during their BA studies and the idea of their own company matured as their final year of the program proceeded.
Kiihko Dance got its name from Marja's native language, Finnish. Kiihko can be translated into English in many different ways; passion, heat, intensity, and zeal to mention a few. All these represent the different shades of relationships the collaborators have with dance, movement and the medium of the human body.
In the mission statement of Kiihko Dance, Marja and Geneva specify their aims and motivation as a company. Kiihko Dance is about creating, experiencing and appreciating movement. It is a collaboration of two professional dancers teaching, choreographing and performing.

The other night our offices were magically transformed into a living, 3-D holiday card. Seriously. There were fine cocktails along with banging music and a temp tattoo station, serve-yourself candy section, photo booth, piñata, and — get this — custom gingerbread-man cookie bar! Was this the work of Santa and a commando unit of elves? Nope. It was Target and event producer extraordinaire David Stark's new Pinterest-powered party-planning resource, Best.Party.Ever.!
See, a couple of our editors added Target and Stark on Pinterest and answered a few questions about our style and what would make our perfect holiday bash. Then, Best.Party.Ever. created a customized Pinterest board for decor and food inspiration. Neat, right?
Now, we were lucky enough to have the team come into our offices and actually string the tinsel and light the fake fireplace. But, you, too, can get in on the goodness by checking out the Best.Party.Ever. Pinterest board — each is packed with inspiring how-to tips, recipes, and links to all the products (available at Target) you'll want. Also, get a lil' more guidance by hearing what inspires Stark himself, here. This all takes the sweat out of holiday entertaining, for sure.

Open Books
I create photographically illustrated books springing from my fascination with the book format and a love of texture in art. My imagery is inspired by the surreal and poetic moments of living in our fast-paced, modern world. I'm fascinated by how daily life in the 21st Century presents us with incredible experiences in such regularity that we no longer differentiate between what is natural and what is colored with implausibility, humor, and irony.
These hard cover books are hand bound with marbleized paper and displayed fully opened to a photographically illustrated two-page folio spread. Each book is framed in a wooden shadowbox and presented as a wall piece. I like the idea of making art that contains some imagery which can be sensed but not seen. The underlying pages contain my photographs, snapshots, and work prints that "gave their lives" for the imagery visible in the open spread. These images lie beneath the open pages like history.

"Little Red Cowboy Hat" by Susan Lowell, illustrated by Randy Cecil, Henry Holt, 28 pages
Read aloud: age 3-4 and older.
Read yourself: age 7-8 and older.
Once upon a ranch, far out in the wilds of the West, lived a girl with very red hair who wore a very red cowboy hat. The combination of the hair and hat resulted in her nickname, Little Red Cowboy Hat, or Little Red for short.
One day Little Red's mother asked her to ride her pony over to Grandmother's ranch and take her a loaf of homemade bread and a jar of cactus jelly. As Little Red set out across the mesa, she found some beautiful wild flowers that she knew Grandmother would love. Even though her mother had told her not to dilly-dally along the way, Little Red stopped to pick the flowers and came face-to-face with a mean old wolf!
Story sound familiar? You bet, but this time the classic fairy tale has a refreshing southwestern spin. Bright, fun illustrations accompany this comical rendition of one very spunky girl, her feisty grandmother, and a not-so-clever wolf.

"Good Enough to Eat" written and illustrated by Brock Cole, Farrar, Straus & Giroux, 2007, 32 pages, $16.00 hardcover
Read aloud: age 4-5 and older.
Read yourself: age 8 and older.
She was a poor girl with no family, not even a name. Some of the townsfolk called her Scraps-and-Smells, some called her Skin-and-Bones, and some called her Sweets-and-Treats. When a horrible ogre threatens to ravage the town unless he is given a fair maiden as his bride, the townspeople voted Scraps-and-Smells to be the chosen one.
But an ogre isn't easy to please, and the girl turns out to be far more clever and brave than anyone had thought.
Loaded with imagination and fun, "Good Enough to Eat" will command repeat readings.
"100 Cupboards" by N.D. Wilson, Random House, 2007, 289 pages, $16.99 hardcover
Read aloud: age 8 and older.
Read yourself: age 9 and older.
Twelve-year-old Henry had "led a life that taught him not to look forward to anything." But when Henry comes to stay with his aunt, uncle, and three cousins in a small town in Kansas, his life takes a different turn. No longer sheltered, Henry is free to roam and explore.
One night Henry hears thumping in the wall of his attic bedroom, then a bit of the plaster falls away, revealing a tiny cupboard door. With the help of his cousin, Henrietta, they peel away more and more of the plaster, ultimately discovering 100 little cupboard doors of all shapes and sizes. What's more, they soon discover these cupboards are portals to other worlds where there is an ancient evil trying to find its way back through those portals and into our world.
Fantasy that feels like reality, the imagined that becomes believable -- these are hallmarks of a great writer and precisely what you'll find in the extraordinary offering of "100 Cupboards."

Light Field Photography with Lytro/
I've always been interested in photography. When I was young I used to read books full of theory about ASA film speeds, f-stops and depth of field calculations. One book said that there was no chance that a camera would ever be able to focus itself. I really wish I'd kept that one.
Anyhoo, I've just found out about Lytro. This is a new way of taking pictures they are calling "Light Field Photography". Rather than using a lens to capture a single, hopefully well focused, image on a sensor, what Lytro are doing is capturing the entire "Light Field" from a scene. The blurb (and this highly detailed thesis) say that the camera captures not just the light, but the direction it is coming from. This means that by using cunning computation they can then built up an image which is focused after it has been taken. The photographer can make decisions about which parts of the picture they want to have sharp after the shot has been taken. They have some astonishing demos on their web site where you can click on different parts of the picture to focus at that point.
I've had a read of the thesis and I think what they are doing is putting a bunch of tiny "micro-lenses" in front of the sensor so that different parts of the sensor are focused at different distances. This means that you lose resolution (since the same spot in the image is being focused at different points) but by selecting the output from particular sensors you can build an image focused at any point, or indeed build up an picture that is sharp at all points. This requires a fairly ferocious amount of processing power, but does give you a lot of flexibility after the picture is taken.
I'm not completely convinced by their pitch. Modern cameras with small sensors have a large depth of field (most of the image tends to be in focus anyway) and they also have very efficient auto-focusing software. However, I've clicked the box that says "Let me know when the cameras are for sale" and we will just have to see how it all turns out.

Product Development / Positioning
Arm & Hammer® Fridge Fresh
- An open box of Arm & Hammer® baking soda in the refrigerator has been a tradition among many American households.
- Research indicates there is resistance on the part of non-users based upon the lack of customization.
- Church & Dwight asked The Chambers Group to create and validate a series of Arm & Hammer® new products in two general categories…household and pet.
- Additionally, each concept should leverage the fresh / deodorizing Arm & Hammer® equity.
- The Chambers Group using two 6.5 hour product development Connectics™ sessions developed twelve new product concepts in each of the two categories.
- The first of many new product opportunities was identified and handed back to Chambers for positioning.
- It was determined that a unit customized to include a wall mount, a replacement indicator and a filter leveraging the A&H baking soda equity was valid.
- Chambers worked with twenty target consumers in a two and one-half hour Positioning Connectics™ session.
- The following remarkable triggers were identified, allowing the new A&H Fridge Fresh to be powerfully positioned and successfully launched:
– Sub-Brand – "Fridge Fresh"
– Benefit Statement – "Eliminates Odors So Foods Taste Fresher Longer"
– Key Graphic – "Refrigerator identifying applications"
– Key Graphic – "Replacement Indicator"

The call from the New York-based Anti-Defamation League came a dayafter a panel of Jewish and Catholic historians announced they hadsuspended their research into the Vatican's wartime record, saying theycouldn't proceed without access to the documents.
The panel was appointed by the Vatican and another Jewishorganization in 1999 to examine the wartime actions of Pope Pius XII,who has been accused by Jews of having failed to speak out while the Holocaust was goingon.
The group put out a preliminary report in October, based on reviewof already released Vatican papers, which described a pope intent onfruitless diplomacy as reports of atrocities poured into the Vatican.
The Vatican official in charge of relations with other religions,Cardinal Walter Kasper, told the panelists in a June 21 letter thatdocuments dating after 1923 wouldn't be available to them for "technical reasons."
Catholic members of the panel said the reams of documents merelyweren't ready for release because the two Vatican archivists hadn'tcatalogued and bound them.
Panelists acknowledged they were never promised access to thedocuments -- and in fact had never demanded to see the papers. But in aJuly 20 letter to Kasper announcing their decision to suspend their work, thepanelists said they had hoped that during the course of their researchthe documents would be made available.
Meanwhile, in an indication of the divisiveness of the issue, one ofthe Catholic panelists said Tuesday he was disassociating himself fromthe press release announcing the suspension.
The release from the International Jewish Committee forInterreligious Consultations quoted its chairman, Seymour Reich, asexpressing deep disappointment that the Vatican hadn't opened its books.
The Rev. Gerald Fogarty, a professor of church history and theologyat the University of Virginia, said he was not disappointed by theVatican's decision. Kasper "never made or could make any promise that any questions weraised would be answered from documents in the archives," Fogartywrote.
Only the Holy See's secretary of state has jurisdiction overreleasing the papers, Fogarty said.

what bike have you got?
cycling gimps?
i just bought a bike that costs more than my car, which is frankly absurd. All in an effort to get fit, sure it would be cheaper to pay for liposuction. one of these:
do you have a silly posh road bike or just a good old 150 quid halfords job?
I got a really swish black BMX
that I bought and build and then never rode. For sale.
Worth £200, will sell for £100?
What kind?
Not that I'm buying it. I just like BMXs.
I nearly sold the Mag wheels off my old Raleigh Burner when I was stupidly skint, but I'm really glad I didn't. I love it too much.
I had a Raleigh Burner when I was woung
It was ace.
Can't remember what the BMX is. Not Diamondback. Something beginning with an S. 22" I think.
don't sell it, may come in useful to get back and forth to the jobcentre
when you can't afford the bus.moker this'd this
I forgot
that one
specialized sirrus? it's pretty much been completely ship of thesus'd now anyhow.
I must have pretty much replaced every part of of it. it's a mutt.
- Matt_was_taken this'd this
I've got two
One is a Specialized hybrid bike; the other is a no-name touring bike, which apparently is manufactured by Claud Butler (but is effectively their budget range).
I have a budget Claud Butler too
Came single speed and I've been riding it fixed. Loads of fun. Changed a lot of the parts (pedals, straps, brakes, seat, drop bars with brown leather tape s actually kind of reassuring. Got it from this place in a sale http://www.leedsbicycle.com/ Not sure if they still have amazing offers but at the time they seemed to have loads. This is the bike before being tinkered with: http://www.bikes2udirect.com/bikes_html/images/items/B4151.jpg
One Specialised mountain bike, fully suspended. One other I forget the make of
Two BMXs, one is a Mongoose, the other something else I forget too.
All ebay jobs. All great bikes
I have a bright green no-logo
single speed...
here it is
Reynolds 753 frame, shimano 105 ten speed. Probably cost about £400 in total, bought most of it off ebay. Took it out for the first proper ride this afternoon, its really great. Especially compared to the piece of shit I commute on which is slowly falling apart and looks like it was cheap enough when it was first made in the early 70s.
Really don't like the look of these modern carbon/aluminum bikes.
Gonna upgrade it to brifters eventually
but I quite like downtube shifters anyway. And i'm gonna get some clippy pedals + shoes for the first time.
don't be a clippy pedal commuter please
those guys...*shakes head*
nah, only going clipless on my flashy bike (that one)
got toe cages for commuting.
can't believe you have a sexier bike than me
i got it for half rrp and can spread the cost over 12 months
and i'm never going to use it. might get n even more expensive one just to do you
Oh shit I want your one
how much did it cost?
I have a super dull hybrid. I had an AMAZING PLAN to gift it to the missus, thus allowing me to buy a super flash dickhead bike. BUT my stupid mum gave my missus her shit old Dutch-style crap bike with a basket on the front, and there's only room for two bikes in our flat. Fucking fuming.
- deadonthestairs and waffle this'd this
Best thing?
The missus told me she didn't want it [howerd.wav] but felt bad refusing the offer. Hnnnghghgh.
- Royter-Hatfood this'd this
target: wanna do a tdf climb before the end of summer
madeleine or alpe d'huez or iseran
Surly cross check
She may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts, I've made a few special modifications myself.
Plug Charge
Circa 2011. Best bike I've ever owned (and I had a Chopper, Grifter and Super Burner in that order before a load of average racers / mtb's).
had to get mine in black becuase i don't like red things
day-glo wasn't an option :(
Specialized Sirrus as my only real bike these days
Recently sold my MTB and road bike as I never rode either of them. Also have a Sinclair A-bike and a midi-sized penny farthing, but they are both more for novelty purposes...
Raleigh Scafell
£125 from Halfords. Currently broken.
It's fixed now
Please update your spreadsheets accordingly
I have a Kona Cinder Cone mountain bike, 2011 model
Saved £300 buying it as last-year's model, pretty chuffed with that still.
My brother has a Specialized Allez which I use if I wanna go out on the roads currently. My dad has a Specialized Roubaix which is fucking gorgeous but he is yet to let me take it out for a spin, unsurprisingly.
I have a Vauhall Astra
What is this place? London?moker this'd this
Genesis Volant 20 (2013) road bike
Used to have a Sirrus.
I want to get a singlespeed, the Charge Plug seems like good value.
I've got a Dawes Steet Sharp
I bought it about ten years ago via Loot, for ninety quid. Looks like they still go for about £100/150 now.
Apparently it was one of the last hand made steel framed bikes that Dawes made before they outsourced their manufacturing to India or somewhere.
Possibly the best ninety quid I've ever spent. I very much doubt that I'd go ten times faster or be ten times more comfortable on a bike that costs ten times the amount.
B'Twin Triban 3
The white version, really excellent for £300. My Dad has the red one, which was the version getting great reviews last year, but I much prefer mine - primarily because the gear shifting is smoother.
Also have a crappy hybrid which rarely gets used now.
pinnacle cobalt 3 (2011)
It's like a tank in comparison to the single speed charge plug I had before it, but in a good way
thanks to the c2w scheme i have
bianchi via nirone
orbea marmolada
genesis core 20 & a
ridgeback hybrid hack that i've been upgrading all the bits on to sram
time edge racer carbon frame (2009 model) bought at half price at £1000
Campagnolo carbon chorus groupset including and FSA-SL carbon chainset bought for £900. Campagnolo neutron wheels £560. Other bits cost a whack too.
Work bike is a battered Claude Butler frame with fulcrum racing 7 wheels and my old campagnolo centaur groupset.
on mobile so hope this works
That includes time seat post and stem. I have Easton ea70 bars and stem and an itm carbon seat post
- rich-t this'd this
why are all expensive bikes red?
never blue or green or yellow or purple or brown or silver
never silver?
have you never seen a titanium frame?
have a look at someone like litespeed
or try the cippolini bond in fluoro yellow
or the aston martin
for £25k
available in orange, green etc
Work bike
Good bike
come on rich
don't you know the rules of bike pics?
second one ticks most of them (faciong right way, cranks in line with seat post, biggest cog at front) but fails on wheel valves not hidden behind frame, smallest cog at back, no bottle in cage, handlebars level & white background - could have done with a shallower depth of field mind
(v nice bike though)
No idea there were such stringent rules for bike pics
Thought the only one was being able to stand it up as if by magic. I obviously need to take the course.
My housemate got the velominati rulebook for Christmas.
Had a flick through it the other day, cringed hard.
yeah rules for pics
not the general rules for cycling as posted below
rules for pics are in here (contains much bike porn)
Commute on a very battered Charge Plug Grinder,
which used to look like this: http://img.charikaji.com/item/chargebikes/CB-PB-PGER/CR/500_1.jpg
Bought an Eddy Merckx amx1 ( http://images04.olx-st.com/ui/18/72/59/1331224226_327336359_2-Pictures-of--Eddy-merckx-amx-1.jpg ) third hand last year. It really is no looker but it's in really good condition and so light and quick. I am a bit tempted to sell it and get something a bit more robust and versatile though.
I've got a Bobbin Bramble in green
It's so pretty and I absolutely adore it.
I've never had a brand new bike before so I don't know if it's actually any good, but I got it from a decent bike shop so it can't be that terrible.
specialzed langster for work
felt z85 for weekends
Won this on eBay for £34 last month
Needs some work.
My pal got one like that the other week
though it mustave been the next step down cos it was 18-23 tubing. spent the weekend cleaning it, rides pretty nicely now.
Yea can't believe got a 501 for that price
Quite a bit of rust to sort out though. Also it's MASSIVE so probably not a keeper sadly.
How big are you talking?
If it's >23" and you're gonna sell it on then I'd be interested. Could even trade for a smaller 501 f+f or even full bike if you're getting rid?
It's over 60cm
Totally forgot exact measurements, need to measure it again. Wasn't gonna sell it immediately as it's a little project and see how it rode when it was "finished". ie roadworthy. What have you got?
My commuter is a Raleigh Sirocco that's too small for me
Been looking at transplanting a bigger f+f in for a while.
Looked like this, bit grubbier now:
Think I'll stick with mine for now though, until I see how I go on it. My last bike (stolen) was 51cm so I'm guessing not particularly well.
Might as well give it a try I guess!
Keep us in mind if you do decide do sell up though if it's no use to you.
Aye will do
Probably be on the road in a month or two so I'll give you a shout if I plan on moving it on once I've fallen off it trying to stop at a set of lights.
really boring bike question:
how big's yer stem, how tall are you and how well does it fit you?
I'm about 5' 9" and got a 120mm stem on at the moment, think it seems a bit long. Wondering whether I should look for one as small as 90mm? Want to be comfortable but don't want to lose the racing edge.
are you overstretching?
is your back flatish?
get a bike fit done, not expensive & they will adjust saddle fore & aft & height, advise on stem length, crank size etc
Think I might be a tiny bit stretched
i've generally got pretty good flexibility but it seems a bit far. Got the bars and stem together so it just ended up this way.
Might get a bike fit one of these days... looks fun
had one
free with my bike
took about an hour
was videod from front & side to make sure everything in the right place
tother half was getting back pain when cycling & she had one done as well & sorted it out completely
6ft7ish. its 110mm on a 61cm frame. fits just fine for me.
thats just how mine came off the peg
so could be that technically i need a longer one.. i dunno, I like the fit of my bike for me.
B'Twin Triban 5 A (2013, Black)
Used just for evenings and weekends last summer/autumn, but have been using it on the daily commute throughout winter so it's filthy and well worn in now. Also have a Diamondback Outlook 05 MTB which hasn't seen much action since I got the road bike. Needs replacing with a single speed for commuting and hacking about in so that the road bike doesn't get so battered.
but with
Campy veloce and khamsins
my bike is slightly absurd
i bought a dahon hybrid about three years ago and have changed almost every part except the frame. it's now a monster, a road bike with a big heavy hybrid frame that folds in half.
would love to buy a fancy road bike but probably not this year. think i will piece a single speed together later in the year though, a la yes_ upthread.

Jamis Beatnik single-speed
Having only ever ridden mountain bikes before I'm still amazed by how fast it is, I keep getting loads of punctures though despite putting gatorskin tyres on it
might be a spikey spoke sticking through the rim
take the inners out and have a look
also if you get really desperate have a look at where the puncture is and try and match it up with the wheel AND the tyre.
Sometimes the tyre can have a tiny little bit of glass or hawthorn in it. Running a yellow duster round it and seeing where it catches is supposed to be good.
Also you may be running your tyres too low and getting pinch flats - where the tyre wall compresses all the way to the wheel.
Also if you align the logo on your tyres with your inner tube valve it'll serve as handy reference point when you do get a puncture.
Ive never done this
but will definately start.
good tipzxcvbnm- this'd this

I'm still on my Giant cyclo cross
but I keep swapping bits out to make it more road-y
Basically I should buy a proper road bike.
This is my bike but I badly need a new one
as its like 3 years old and rusty and crap
I've borrowed my mums Pashley for a bit
and its FUCKING HEAVY but is so nice
What are those bikes with absolutely no markings on them?
Is there one manufacturer of them, or several? They look pretty boss,
I'm not sure how to describe them, just road bikes I think
I tend to see them in black, red and green with matching coloured wheels.
Anyone offer advice please?
I'm looking to start cycling just for evenings/weekends (commute too far) to help regain knee strength.
Good light beginner bikes for road cycling?
Not very fit so would prefer gears for the hills
£300 at a push?
But I have no idea what the min spend should be to get a bike of decent quality that'll work in all weathers and last more than few years
Ask TheWZA about his BTwin/Btwin/B'Twin
They're incredibly cheap for a brand new road bike.
Triban 3 is less than £250 currently
Get the red one, you get carbon forks. It's a mental piece of kit for the price.Matt_was_taken this'd this
I don't like the red 3.
(I have the black 5, which has the same frame, but different gears and groupset including slightly swisher shifters were what upsold it to me - think the white 3 for £299 has the nice lefty/righty shifters tho, with the payoff of not having carbon fork, i think).
The new decathlon range is coming out soon so they're probably having a clear out, but at £250 the red triban 3 is even more bargainous than it already was. great first bike with nothing shit on it. you probably pay twice the price pretty easily for a lower specced bike. (and it has a 'granny gear', so pretty forgiving on the hills.)
has a bit of a cult following, too - http://triban3owners.freeforums.net/
Positive reviews all round it seems!
Got to honest don't understand half of what it mentions but trust it's all good
Think I'm sold - will do the job for eve/wkend use
(to clarify: when i said I don't like the red 3, i just meant the colour.)
You may struggle to find a red Triban 3 brand new unless you need a really small size
Pretty much sold out in 54+. Second-hand might be possible though. White version is still really good though, much better gear shifters than the red as The Wza says.
I just bought a Triban3 (white one) today
on the back of these posts and some subsequent research. Fantastic bike. Hoping to cycle to work 3 times a week and get out into the peak district a little bit. Been ages since I cycled/had a bike.
Would suggest building one like I did
Really helps you understand the workings of it
Get a frame off ebay or gumtree which is reynolds 531 (or higher) then add get the bits, read sheldon brown to find out what bits
alternatively look on gumtree or your local community bike project thing.
If your budget is less than £500 there's not much point buying new imo
Wow really?!
Never realised a decent bike cost so much.
My dad loves stuff like this so could be a nice project for us to together....neither of us have any bike knowledge though. Is a bit of common sense and googling sufficient to not screw up the build?
building your own is a noble pursuit. but to say that if your budget is less than £500 there's not much point buying new is to deny the existence of decathlon & btwin. i tried all the community shops and recycle/renew type places, but it was slim (and overly expensive) pickings, so i settled on a triban.
or do as i did and buy a really cheap, crap second hand one
then spend over double what you bought it for replacing the bits as they fall off
you'll soon learn what you want that way!
I've got this single-speed Raleigh as a commuter:
And picked up a refurbished 531c frame a while ago and am in the process of building it into a slightly larger and nicer single-speed Raleigh:
It's taking me a long time to find a suitable era chainset on eBay, which is holding things up somewhat.
Has anyone had any experience in removing braze-ons themself? There's unwanted cable guides and downtube shifters that I want off. Really don't want to have to sand, prime, and respray the areas once they're off - which I imagine is unavoidable really.
how else do you imagine to remove them?
it's a couple of hours work i'd guess to hack them down and file and sand them off. or just leave them. careful work with an angle grinder would speed it up
Man I just can't get into ss/fixies looks-wise
always end up thinking 'that looks nice and sleek but would look better with a nice shiny cassette and campagnolo bits attached'
That's awful
That raleigh looks nice but its a bit TOO nice
My mate has an early 80s Romani frame
With campagnolo record gearing and mavic wheels. Haven't got a pic of it, but it's similar to this one, but dark blue and chromed forks and rear triangle. It's a beauty.
Too many for the flat...
Nukeproof Mega for serious business
Nukeproof Snap for messing about and a bit of 4x
Red edition Triban 3 from Decathlon for the commute and longish rides. Swapped out the saddle and the brakes and it's going well so far after 2k miles, including a few centuries and the shitty weather over the last few months. Absolute bargain with the carbon fork.
FAO: bike people
if you're buying a second hand bike, how do you check it hasn't been nicked?
i guess if its on gumtree just use your wits
there's somebody on gumtree for me that puts up about 6 or 7 ads a day for all different size mountain bikes which makes me a bit suspicious.
just ask questions about when they first bought it and all. First thing i'd do if my bike was nicked would be to put up a thread on a bike forum for my city so you could check that i guess. Idk though really.
check out these 3
Oh yeah saw those
I saw those too
£495 though
Had my work bike stolen from the secure bike rack
On Saturday night. Absolutely gutted.
Your nice one?
Sorry man. Did you have insurance or anything? I know you can get cycle insurance but haven't really looked into it.
Not my expensive one. Would never take that to work.
The Claude butler. No insurance on that one so hopefully I can claim something on the contents insurance though.
- monoshono this'd this
hi bike people I have another question
I've just bought a kryptonite lock and it says if I register and my bike gets nicked then they'll pay for it. costs $10 for a year apparently
is this worth doing? it sounds like a pretty decent deal but are they just going to end up finding a reason why I didn't use my lock properly and shaft me?
any decent bike lock banter? bit of a stretch tbf
not sure about your first couple of questions,
but my brother locked up his bike in central london, lost the key to the lock and so had to "steal" the bike himself. he kept building up to it with posts on here. can't remember the full details, but i think it was funny.
oh yeah
was that the one where everyone just suggested boltcutters?
I spent £65 on a saddle
Can't wait to meet my bike.
Got 4 cycling maps for the south/south west today.
Just ordered this beauty on cycle to work scheme
(was going to start a new bike wank-off but thought better of it)
Hey bike nerds
I need to buy a single-speed now I've moved up to London, but a cheap one (>£200 if possible). Is it best to buy second-hand/refurbished at that price? Assume all the 'No Logo' ones I see about are pretty shit? Anyone got any good recommendations?
keep an eye out on here
Chances are if someone's selling even a cheap one on there it will be properly set up and well looked after
oh wow.
Nice one, cheers yes_

So, sweetheart...happy birthday. Last year I bought your birthday card from the "Blank" section--we'd just met. This year, I found your card filed under "Husband". I guess we move fast...and that's so exciting. I cannot wait to marry you. I won't say "pretend I made you a birthday dinner", cause we both know that's too far removed from reality. But, pretend I shaved my legs, put on that Anthropologie dress you bought me (which I've never worn), took you to Ruth's Chris Steak House and bought you the beefiest steak on the menu.
And then, pretend I read this little list to you in person.
because you're the perfect right-brained compliment to my left brained craziness.
because you treat my best friend like a queen.
because when you drink too much, you speak nonstop--often in technie jargon. and its hilarious.
because you encourage me to chase rainbows. quite literally.
because you have such a soft spot for your nieces and nephews.
because you use the funniest baby voice when you talk to doggies.
because you are deathly afraid of bees...given your tough navy persona, this makes me giggle.
because you wear the black-rimmed nerd glasses just for me. and you hate them.
because when i say, "okay..." you know i mean, "not okay...".
because you always make me feel safe.
because you have the same unhealthy relationship with mac and cheese as i do.
because you never make me feel silly for taking photos of flowers, coffee cups, cake and benches.
because you love me through periods of depression, anxiety and inferiority, never once exasperated with me.
because you turned "my dreams" into "our dreams".
because every day you tell me "i love you" and "you're beautiful".
because you never get frustrated when i explain computer + tv problems like, "you know, that stuff that does that thing? it's doing this thing...."
because you always carry the camera bag when we travel. even on a 20 hour travel day.
because we agree on baby names.
because when we play the "Peugeot" car game in Europe, you never punch me as hard as I punch you.
because you converted to dr. pepper.
because we can agree to disagree on some "hot button" issues...and neither of us worry about it.
because you're such an early riser...you put me to shame.
because you always let me have the chaise portion of the sectional sofa. now that's love.
because you remember my very favorite breakfast cereal, and keep stocked at our house in california.
because you talk about "the kids" whenever we're at the house, chatting about what to do with the yard. i'm pretty sure that's referring to our "someday" kids. :)
because you always try to upgrade my flights using your oodles of miles.
because we both love nerdy documentaries. (just please...no more about the water crisis.)
because i'm the least classy gal alive, but you're never embarrassed to take me to swanky places.
because you've got so many stories.
because you let me nap whenever we're on a road trip, happy to drive while i sleep.
because i'm pretty sure you have a photographic memory ONLY for "how i met your mother" episodes.
because you are a fabulous cook. i'm not...and you're A-okay with that.
because last time we fought, you went upstairs to vaccuum and "blow off steam". how cute.
because you're not afraid of PDA.
because just when i think i couldn't love you more...i do.
Happy birthday, my heart. I love you more than words can say. :)

gorgeous yarn!! I am woefully behind on all podcast listening. I'll blame my adult son who is here for over two weeks :)ReplyDeleteReplies
I recently found your podcast within the last month. Since you only post them once a month, I'm now all caught up.ReplyDeleteReplies
I'm glad you're enjoying them! I find podcasting once a month works with my schedule especially during the school year. With my last podcast, I tried to record every 2 weeks, and I found it difficult to find the time some months. I love podcasting primarily because of the interaction with my listeners so this was a good compromise.Delete
Hope you continue listening in the future!
Am finally getting to list to the podcast and had to laugh at your shock over shipping to Canada - Amanda knows all about that when a friend and I ordered the Ironweed and had it shipped here to us!! :-) It's very expensive!!! (but her yarn is totally worth it) I love your voice and enjoyed the show - will check out Pam Reid's show - I see that she is stitching Death by Thread which is a pattern I've just ordered and will probably die before finishing it...... LOL!!ReplyDelete

Graded FAIR 20 by SGC. T208 Cullivan's Fireside tobacco card featuring Danny Murphy of the Philadelphia Athletics.

We're available 24/7 to discuss treatment options.
If you have previously had radiation therapy for skin cancer and are experiencing recurrent tumors in the treated area, IMRT may be an option for you.
Compared to standard radiotherapy, IMRT allows our radiation oncologists to use higher radiation doses than traditional therapies would allow in these areas. At the same time, IMRT helps to spare more of the surrounding healthy skin tissue from harmful doses of radiation.
Intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) uses advanced software to plan a precise dose of radiation, based on tumor size, shape and location. A computer-controlled device called a linear accelerator delivers radiation in sculpted doses that match the 3D geometrical shape of the tumor, including concave and complex shapes.
With IMRT, our radiation oncologist can adjust the intensity of radiation beams across the treatment area as needed with precision accuracy. This means we can deliver higher radiation doses than traditional radiation therapy methods, while reducing exposure to healthy tissues.
Because of its greater degree of accuracy, IMRT may be a treatment option for patients who have reached the maximum allowable dose of conventional radiation therapy and have a recurrent tumor in the treated area.

large amount of the resistance to consuming healthy vegan food is given that folks feel it?s planning to taste like cardboard. But the truth is that it might genuinely taste awesome if it?s performed effectively.
While you know just a few simple important things about seasonings and cooking with plant food items, you can satisfy even quite possibly the most demanding tastebuds.
When I to begin with started off cooking vegan foods, I was lost for a very little when. Then I begun knowing about easy methods to work together with the flavors within the healthier foods I was consuming ? bringing them out, combining them correctly and applying seasonings to create meals even tastier.
Now, I search forward to eating the scrumptious factors I make for every single meal. I really like consuming healthier foods given that it tastes so great!
I also like generating dishes to present off how astounding wholesome vegan meals can extremely be. It?s exciting to serve some thing, have consumers rave about how excellent it truly is, and after that inform them that it?s balanced and vegan.
From what I?ve discovered above the many years, I?ve put collectively quite possibly the most essential hints for you personally to start producing your personal amazing meals to satisfy and impress your family and close friends.
Use Fresh, High-Quality Components
Above the holidays, I made gingerbread cookies applying the exact exact same recipe I constantly use and adore. The only variation was rather then employing my typical brand of organic molasses, I used a nameless one I scooped out of a bulk bin.
Not simply was this molasses definitely messy, however the gingerbread cookies were not virtually as yummy because they in most cases are. They had been nevertheless decent and disappeared into numerous mouths very quickly flat, but I knew the main difference.
In the event you ordinarily go to the rather least expensive ingredients, and are choosing your meals lacking a particular anything, try receiving some larger excellent foods.
Organic make ? if grown effectively ? usually has a lot more flavor. The purest versions of points like peanut butter or tomato sauce ? the ones that aren?t buried in sugar, salt, oil and preservatives ? possess a significantly richer flavor.
Spice Important things Up
Spices and herbs have to grow to be a typical portion of one's meals. They add taste, and so they even include nutrients!
It may look crazy, but spices like cumin, turmeric, ginger and cinnamon have enormous benefits. Some give a boost for your digestive and immune methods, and so they include certainly vital nutrients like amino acids (the establishing blocks of proteins) and antioxidants.
Fresh herbs are loaded with vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Parsley, basil, mint, cilantro and some others are a lot alot more than garnishes.
Seek to job spices and fresh or dried herbs into your meals a lot more typically. Tomato sauces, curries, salad dressings, bean dips, soups, veggie burgers, oatmeal ? they might all advantage in the additional taste and nutrition.
Give Beans And Grains A Boost
Have you ever eaten a plain chickpea? Or a forkful of plain brown rice? They don?t taste like considerably of something ? they?re completely bland. If you need them to taste extraordinary, don?t serve them on their own.
Greens and fruit are bursting with flavors, and pairing them with beans and grains in the meal may be a smart way to create a dish a lot more intriguing ? and healthier!
Infusing flavor to the water which you use to cook grains or beans is one other solution to include flavor. Including spices, herbs, tea, broth or juice to your cooking water will get otherwise boring black beans or quinoa to a brand new level.
A quality sauce or dressing will go a long approach to adding flavor to a meal, mainly with grains or beans. Marinating beans within a flavorful salad dressing will infuse the taste best to the bean and make it very much tastier.
Don?t Be Frightened Of Extra fat
Selecting the right kind of extra fat is very important to help keep important things wholesome, but after you get that sorted out you might want to embrace it. It can make a big difference on the taste of the meals, plus your system demands some fat to run the right way.
Excess fat carries the flavor of spices and offers a richer feeling to a dish. A meal doesn?t must be fat-free to become balanced in the event you?re making use of a balanced sort of fat.
One of the best variety of excess fat can be a whole food (avocados, nuts, seeds, olives), or as near to total when you can get (nut or seed butters, olive paste). Full meals have water, fiber, carbohydrates, protein, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants in addition to the unwanted fat.
If you will need to use oil, choose an unrefined, extra-virgin version and only use a little bit. My favorites are coconut and olive for being minimally processed rather than forming toxins if you heat them.
For those who?re new to eating healthier or vegan food, or as soon as you?re cooking for people who're, it could extremely assistance to add a little much more unwanted fat. It can make it taste and really feel more like everything you or they're made use of to.
Don?t Be Frightened Of Salt
Salt brings out the taste of veggies, softens them and minimizes their bitterness, and brings the flavors of your full dish together. Once you?re cooking, include adequate salt to carry the flavors out and draw them together but cease short of it in reality tasting salty.
While a number of people are informed to cut back their sodium consumption, a number of wellbeing authorities state that escalating potassium is even more very important for regulating blood stress. Fresh vegetables will be the best source of potassium, and if applying a pinch of salt with your cooking signifies that you?ll consume even more veggies then I think it?s a fair trade.
I don?t suppose of salt being a well being meals, but sea salt is actually a very much more healthy form than normal table salt, which has a number of additives.
Even more effective is known as a vegetable salt, that's sea salt mixed with dried herbs and vegetables. That way, you receive alot more nutrients and significantly less sodium. My preferred brand is Herbamare, by A. Vogel.
If you want to generate some balanced vegan foods that will impress your pals, your loved ones and in some cases oneself, check out some of these easy methods to present off the fantastic flavors of plant food items.
So take into account ? use spices and herbs extra frequently, plenty of taste with grains and beans, excess fat to carry flavors and salt to carry them collectively as well as the freshest components you are able to get your hands on.
Try and make variations of food, you are able to find a great deal more visiting this webpage Guia Receitas Veganas for more informations.

Meet and Greet
Q: "A Life for a Life" is your newest book. Why did you write it?A: I began "A Life for a Life" shortly after the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre. I vacillated between profound sadness and intense anger. How could 20 innocent children and six teachers lose their precious lives because a madman had a gun! I had to do something about this. All I had was my skill as a writer. Over the years, I put the manuscript down many times. I optimistically believed Congress would pass gun-safety laws. I picked up the manuscript again and again when that didn't happen. Finally, when 17 teenagers and teachers were murdered at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, I finished the book and published it.
A: Just a little because the book is a mystery/thriller and I don't want to give away too much. In a nutshell, "A Life for a Life" is about a group of people who have lost loved ones to gun violence. They tried everything to make the country safer. And they failed. Now, with nothing else to lose, they take drastic measures to effect change. It's a dark book, but I hope it leads to the light. I will be shamelessly promoting this book because all profits from its sale go to groups working to tighten gun laws and make our country safer for our children.
Q: "A Life for A Life" seems like a departure from your other books. Is it? A: Yes and no. It is darker, for sure. But my other books also reflect my passion. In "Life" that passion is anger over our insanely lax gun laws. Even my Who-Done-It? Who-Wore-It? Mysteries are more than mere entertainment. My love for fashion is evident. And each book has a message. In one, it's a feminist theme about the importance of equal opportunity. In another, it's about what could happen when parents prevent children from following their dreams. And then there's "Sylvie Shine Senior Snoop Sleuth." I wrote that book to prove that the wisdom of age is more valuable than the beauty of youth.
Q: I've heard that you were born with a pencil in your hand. What's that about?A: I began my writing career as a toddler, scribbling in the books on the bottom shelf in my father's library. I wrote my first poem when I was nine years old. In the third grade, my teacher forgave me for jumping out of my seat when I wrote a poem titled, "I hate to sit." In college, I raised my grade in public speaking by writing a paper on Greek orators. And when a boyfriend moved across the country, I wrote him letters that made him fall in love with me. I finally turned writing into a career and spent nearly 30 years as a journalist, mostly at a daily suburban newspaper. I was also an adjunct professor teaching the art of writing for the Internet. After retiring, I turned to fiction. I'm now looking for an agent to represent my next book, "Men, Madness, Murder," featuring freewheeling, freethinking Private Eye Mona-Lise Hadley. And I have a sci-fi, action book ricocheting through my head. It addresses another passion: Saving our planet by addressing climate change.
I'd love to hear from you. Click on the Menu above and choose Contact. Let me know what you think about my website, my books, or simply what's on your mind if it's g-rated.

How Common Ground of 9/11 Gave Way to Partisan Split
Sunday, July 16, 2006
It was the moment that was supposed to change everything. But almost five years after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, American politics has reverted to many of its old habits and patterns.
The bipartisanship that appeared spontaneously in the aftermath of the attacks was quickly swallowed up by a resurgence of partisan differences among voters and politicians. National security emerged not as a source of unity, but as a new fault line between the two parties, creating a set of issues that have led to bitter disagreement.
The events of Sept. 11, 2001, and their aftermath played out in two national elections, in 2002 and 2004, as President Bush and his team skillfully used the issue of terrorism to expand Republican congressional margins and to retain the White House. And with midterm elections looming in November, Sept. 11 still resonates politically, with fears of terrorism and memories of a nation bound together in shock and sadness capable of affecting the attitudes of some voters.
But in the intervening period, the war in Iraq has assumed a far more prominent role in the political debates and in shaping what have become the negative views of Bush's presidency that have defined much of his second term.
Whether the return to national rancor and partisan conflict was avoidable or inevitable remains a topic of debate, although the evidence tilts in the direction of inevitability. The deep divisions that produced the disputed election of 2000 never disappeared and quickly reasserted themselves shortly after Sept. 11. In a 50-50 America, the lust for political advantage overwhelmed calls for consensus and cooperation.
More fundamentally, the reemergence of security issues highlighted long-standing and heartfelt differences between Republican and Democratic voters over the use of military force and American power to deal with threats old and new. Once Bush fixed his eye on taking out Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, there may have been no way to avoid the political clashes and subsequent divisions that followed.
Today, the war in Iraq and the economy's mixed signals rank higher than terrorism as voting issues. Public attitudes on Iraq are by now well fixed, to the detriment of the president. Those on the economy are subject to change, depending on whether the dominant news of the summer and fall is good or bad.
While terrorism remains a constant threat, it has subsided in the minds of many voters as the principal issue that will determine their vote in November.
Still, a survey experiment commissioned by The Washington Post and conducted by Stanford University communications Prof. Shanto Iyengar showed that, even five years later, visual reminders of the attacks of Sept. 11 can -- modestly -- affect attitudes about Bush, the causes of terrorism and how to combat it.
"The best way of summarizing this pattern of results is that it appears as though President Bush has a 9/11 halo," Iyengar said. "When people see 9/11, they immediately respond more positively to the president. In this context, given that his evaluations are fairly low, what we're saying is, it makes them less negative."
That makes it likely that reminders of those attacks and threats of global terrorism again will be seen in campaign ads for this fall's elections and in 2008. Just as likely, given public attitudes, are images of America's troubles in Iraq, with the first signs coming this month in an Internet ad by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee showing flag-draped coffins of U.S. soldiers.
These images will be put to work in the service of partisan advantage rather than national unity, a far cry from the immediate aftermath of the attacks, when extravagant claims about the lasting effects abounded.

Hello everybody and sorry about my absence and the lack of updates. There has been this huge project in my life called thesis so I have been concentrating on it. The good news is that I submitted it on Saturday and now I'm just waiting for feedback and correction suggestions from my advisor. Maybe one day I'll graduate.
Now I'm having way too much free time and that means I have nothing to do. Have not been going to the gym for over a month, but I'm still following Cambridge Weight Plan. Doing a separate post about that part of my life. I also visited Finland in October, we had a Halloween fancy dress at work and I've trying to get a social life, but no results yet. Slowly but surely.
During this week more happenings here, trying to keep you posted!
|Feeling happy!

When it comes to giving tips about fishing, most people, and websites as well, tend to focus more on mechanics, rather than generalities. By generalities, I am talking about the basics, and common-sense. A fish has a brain the size of a pea, so it's not that hard to out-smart them. Almost everything they do is instinctual and reactive. A fish can't count, so having too many, or not enough spots on your lure will probably not make much difference. Colors, on the other hand, are things fish can see and relate to, but only to a certain extent. Bait size can be an issue at times, with some species of fish, but not an insurmountable one. Basically, a fish has a split second or two to decide to eat, or not to eat something, before another fish snaps it up, so unless something is very obvious, it will not keep a fish from biting most of the time. As a rule, with most fish, if you show up at the right place, at the right time, with a bait similar in color and size to what those fish are used to eating, you will catch fish. We're not talking about winning tournaments here…just coming home with some fish for dinner, or if you believe in catch-and-release, plenty of exercise for you.
With that said, here are our 10 Best Fishing Tips, based on over 40 years of successful fishing, to help you enjoy your time in the great outdoors.
- 1 Tip 1: Get Your Stuff Together The Day Before
- 2 Tip 2: Dress For The Weather
- 3 Tip 3: Keep Your Hooks Sharp
- 4 Tip 4: Use The Appropriate Gear
- 5 Tip 5: Use A Fish Basket, Keep Net Or Live-Well. Never Use A Stringer
- 6 Tip 6: Fish At The Right Times
- 7 Tip 7: Rig Your Bait Properly
- 8 Tip 8: Take Care Of Your Equipment
- 9 Tip 9: Always Have Proper First Aid And Safety Equipment
- 10 Tip 10: Lastly, Always Be Aware Of Your Surroundings…
- 11 Have Your Say
Tip 1: Get Your Stuff Together The Day Before
Nothing can spoil a fishing trip more than getting out on the water and realizing you either don't have something you need, or left it at home. Many times, you need to be on the water when the sun comes up, so if you neglected to buy bait, hooks, or sinkers, etc… the day before, chances are most bait shops will not be open at this time. You're just out of luck.
You can avoid this by checking out all of your gear the day before. Notice I said day, and not night. If you need to replace or add something, you need to be able to get to the store while they are open. Inspect your gear, and repair or replace anything that needs it. Make sure your gear is orderly (nothing is more irritating than having to fumble around in a tackle-box, or fishing vest for something, and it's not where it should be…). Make sure you have all the sinkers, hooks and/or lures you think you may need, plus a few extra. Buy your bait, and make sure you have a way to keep it alive. If you need to seine or trap minnows, crawfish, or catch worms, or crickets, do it the night before. Always include at least 32oz. ( 2 good-sized water bottles) of water for each person going. Never go fishing without water to drink, no matter what time of year it is. Dehydration can hit quickly, without warning, especially on the water. And, make sure your licenses and permits are current. Make sure you have good directions to where you are going. Check the weather forecast. Once you have all this together, set it by the door. Do a final checklist just before leaving, including checking the weather forecast one more time for the area you will be fishing in.
Tip 2: Dress For The Weather
Being cold, hot, or wet can be miserable, and ruin any fishing trip, as well as being life-threatening in extreme situations. Always dress appropriately for the current, and forecasted weather for where you will be fishing. It's best to dress in layers, so as the day warms up, you can shed some clothes, or if it gets colder, you can add some. No matter what the weather is supposed to be, always have a good jacket, rain gear and gloves with you at all times on the water. I don't care if it is the middle of summer, keep a jacket with you. Cold fronts can come in quickly, anytime of year, without much warning, and it doesn't have to be very cold for you to get exposure. Rain can appear at any time, with little warning. If you get uncomfortable, don't be a hero. There will be other fishing trips. Go home before you freeze.
In warm weather, heat exhaustion, heat-stroke, and sunburn are your main concerns. Ladies, leave the sexy bikinis at home. Not only is it distracting to others who may want to concentrate on catching fish, it exposes you doubly to harmful UV radiation reflecting off of the surface of the water. Sunscreens will repel fish. Wear comfortable cut-off shorts and a light cotton T-Shirt (and please don't forget the bra…when you sweat, cotton become semi transparent… We're out here to catch fish, not see a floor show..…). Guys, it might seem cool to shed the shirt and show off your pecs, but a severe sunburn is not fun for anyone. You are actually cooler with a light cotton T-Shirt than with bare skin. Comfortable shorts work for guys, too. Always wear some kind of shoe with good traction, and not sandals. Never wade bare-footed, because other people have probably fished there, too, and left broken bottles, old hooks, and other nasty stuff behind in the water. And lastly, always wear sunglasses, because light reflected off of the water can damage your retinas, even in winter. You should also wear some kind of hat with a brim to shade your eyes from the sun.
Tip 3: Keep Your Hooks Sharp
More fish are lost, and more strikes missed, due to dull hooks, than for any other reason. And there is no reason for it. It is very easy and quick to sharpen a hook, using the Triangle Method. Instructions for this are all over the internet, and on YouTube.
To check your hooks for sharpness, run the point over your fingernail. If it sticks, then the hook is sharp enough. If it slides, the hook is dull. Sharpen it and check it again. If it still won't stick after a few times, throw the hook away (safely) and use another one.
Tip 4: Use The Appropriate Gear
Another thing that results in less fish is not matching your gear to the fish you are trying to catch. Use the correct equipment for the fish your are looking for. It's not much fun catching bluegills on a Heavy-Action rod, and you will miss out on a lot of fish. Likewise, your chances of landing a catfish on a puny ultra-light trout or bluegill rod are very remote. Strong fish need strong equipment and gear. Delicate fish need finesse. Bluegills often attack bass lures, but are seldom hooked. Many a bass has slurped a bluegill worm on a light #8 wire hook, and promptly straightened it out. Using gear that is too small results in unnecessary pain, suffering and death to the fish, and less fish landed. Using gear that is too large means you will probably be going home empty-handed.
Tip 5: Use A Fish Basket, Keep Net Or Live-Well. Never Use A Stringer
Stringers are bad, for several reasons. First, rope stringers through the gills interfere with the fish's ability to breathe, causing inhumane and unnecessary suffering. Stringing through the lip with rope, or metal clasp stringers can allow some fish to tear free, especially fish with soft lips like trout, crappie and bluegills. This causes unnecessary pain, death, and wastes fish. Stringers also allow other predators to attack your fish, rightly assuming they are in distress, and easy targets. It's not a lot of fun to pick up a stringer and see a venomous Water Moccasin snake latched on to your fish, or a grumpy large turtle chowing down on your crappie. In salt water, of course, stringers attract sharks, barracuda, and other unwanted visitors to your location. Fish baskets allow the fish to stay alive in relative comfort until you are ready to release, or process them. Live-wells, and coolers are even better, because they preserve the fish better.
Tip 6: Fish At The Right Times
As a rule, fish bite best in the early morning, and afternoon. Some fish bite better at night. Mid-day is usually somewhat unproductive for all fish. This is true for most of the year. Solunar Tables predict what times fish will likely be feeding each day. They are based on Moon phases. It's been my experience that Solunar Tables are pretty accurate for determining the best 'window' to be on the water. You can find Solunar Tables all over the web.
Tip 7: Rig Your Bait Properly
A poorly-made rig results in lost fish. Make sure your knots are tied correctly, and it is the proper knot for that situation. Instructions for tying fishing knots and making rigs can be found on dozens of websites, and on YouTube. Use the correct rig for what you are trying to accomplish. Using a bottom-rig for surface-feeding trout is not going to do you much good. LIkewise, a still-water rig will be useless in the fast waters below dam tail races.
Tip 8: Take Care Of Your Equipment
The vast majority of equipment failures are caused by not taking proper care of it, rather than age, or design flaws. I am still fishing with a bamboo fly rod that was made almost 100 years ago. There are several things you need to do if you want your equipment to last, and not fail when you need it most:
- Rods and reels need to be rinsed with clean fresh water, dried, and lubed after every fishing trip. The best way to dry them is with a hair dryer set on 'Cool", as hot air can damage the rod.
- Rods and reels need to be stored properly between fishing trips. Reels need to be removed from the rods, and stored in a lint-free bag, or box. Rods should be in a case, or rod-sock. Don't just prop them up in a corner of the garage.
- Rod Guides should be inspected periodically, and any that show signs of rust, discoloration or (gasp) nicks need to be replaced before using the rod again.
- Reels need to be oiled frequently. You should replace the line on them every 6-9 months (monofilament deteriorates from UV, and general wear-and-tear rather quickly).
- Lures should be cleaned with fresh water and dried after every fishing trip they are used on. Inspect the hooks frequently and replace any that show signs of rust. Sharpen any dull hooks. Replace worn skirts or tails, and/or nicked spinners and blades. Chipped or faded paint can be touched up with enamel or markers.
- All terminal tackle should be stored in an orderly fashion, preferably in a good tackle box.
- Never, repeat, never leave your gear in your car for more than a few hours, especially in summer. Heat will destroy it.
- Inspect trot lines, jug lines, nets, minnow seines and traps, etc… frequently and repair any damages, or replace worn units.
Tip 9: Always Have Proper First Aid And Safety Equipment
You may scoff at this one, but remember: you are going to be using sharp, pointed objects, probably a knife, and exposing yourself to nature's hazards, including things that bite, stink, stick and sting. You'll be walking over rough ground, many times in semi-remote places, and help could be along way away. Always have a good First Aid Kit, Snake Bite Kit (if you're in viper country!), and some sort of signalling device such as a loud whistle, mirror, or flare gun. Make sure you know how to use them, and keep the First Aid and Snake Bite Kits fully stocked by replacing anything you use from them as soon as possible. Keep your cell phone with you, in a water-proof container. And, this is especially important, never go in a boat without having an approved flotation device for every person on-board, or if fishing from shore, always have a throwable floatation device, attached to at least 25 ft of line, handy. More people die from drowning than any other cause, while fishing.
Tip 10: Lastly, Always Be Aware Of Your Surroundings…
Most of us have 5 senses. Three of them are very important when you are out fishing. They are Hearing, Smelling, and Seeing. They can give you valuable insight as to what's happening around you. Believe it or not, if you pay attention, you can sometimes smell certain species of fish when they are near, and in shallow water. You can hear fish jumping, and slurping food from the surface of the water. You can see fish jumping, tailing, and cruising in shallow water. You can see the currents, and visible structure that may tell you where the fish are.
You can also see snakes. Water Moccasins (Cottonmouths) are territorial and aggressive, as well as venomous, so it's a good idea to know where they are, and give them a wide berth. You can see turtles when they stick their heads up to breath. Turtles are a sign that there will probably not be many fish in the area. Cruising gars, sharks and barracuda mean the same thing. On the other hand, wheeling and diving birds often mean there are schools of baitfish underneath them, and lots of bigger fish. Looking at the ground as you go, you may see the scat of large animals like bears, or skunks, that may present a problem. Feeling a breeze picking up could mean a cold front, or storm is on the way, as can dark clouds in the distance.
Always maintain situational awareness of your surroundings. If you need to bug-out, it's better to do it sooner, rather than later……
