Title: Rushing Love (States of Love)
Author: Meg Bawden
Publisher: Dreamspinner Press
Release Date: February 22, 2017
Genre(s): Contemporary Romance
Page Count: 93
Reviewed by: Crabbypatty
Heat Level: 3 flames out of 5
Rating: 3.25 stars out of 5
After a devastating breakup with the man he thought he'd spend his life with, Flynn Webb takes a vacation to a South Dakota dude ranch. It's something completely different from anything he's done before, and it helps that it's as far away from his ex as possible. Trapped in his own depressive thoughts, Flynn is surprised to meet Grayson Harland. Not only is Grayson a sexy cowboy—one fifteen years younger—but he's the most charming man Flynn has ever met.
Flynn doesn't have much experience with being seduced, and he has even less with guys like Grayson taking an interest in him—and Grayson is definitely interested. What begins as a fling while visiting iconic South Dakota sights soon develops the potential for much more. But Flynn is afraid that falling in love again so soon—and with a man so much younger—will lead only to another catastrophic heartbreak. Luckily for them both, Grayson isn't giving up without a fight.
"Life had Flynn Webb by the balls. It had a tight grip, and it was tugging so hard that Flynn felt breathless." After being dumped by his boyfriend of nineteen years – for someone ten years younger – Flynn is ready to get away and unwind, hence a trip to a South Dakota dude ranch with his BF Sean. Flynn very quickly meets Grayson, a 21-year-old tall muscular "dark-haired, blue-eyed god" who greets Flynn with
"Jesus, Mary, and Joseph. You're gorgeous. Please tell me you're the gay one."
As the title implies, this is insta-love on Grayson's part, but Flynn isn't much further behind. In between touring the Crazy Horse monument and Mount Rushmore in South Dakota's Black Hills, the two men begin something that feels:
"Like a fairy tale?"
"I was going to go with a cheaply made porn movie."
Grayson laughed. "If that was true, then we would have fucked this morning. Or in the barn."
"Or maybe after I fell of Iktomi."
"Or had a threesome with Francis."
"He's hot, but I don't do threesomes." Flynn shrugged.
I liked the author's writing style which is descriptive with a fun snarky touch, and I liked the general premise of the story but … but there is a big "but" as well (umm, see picture). The relationship between Flynn and Grayson and the pace of the story is just too rushed. There's some serious sizzle between the two, but it's literally only a day before Grayson is stating his intentions and planning a future with Flynn.
If this book had been longer, with additional time to develop the relationship, "Rushing Love" would have been in the 4 star range for me (albeit with a bit of a deduction for an unnecessary scene between Flynn and his ex-Brendan). I like Meg Bawden's style and will definitely check out her next book.

Started playing this and I love it. Really love the visuals, gives me nostalgia galore.
please make more games like these lol
Great stuff, love the attention to detail in regards to the backstory and suchlike. Neat work.
Thoroughly enjoyed this!!
*Rurr!* Hello everyone! I saw this video, and being my history of playing PC games like this, mostly my mentioning of an old Amiga game called 'Future Wars' (If you guys love this genre, you should try playing Future Wars) - I'm so far enjoying it and will finish it as a series :P Hope you enjoy.
This is one of the best games I've played in a while, as a long-time gamer. I'm stuck now, but it's because I need to get better at this game.
I can certainly see the Barrow Hill inspirations here. Good job!
hey I dled and it wont play for me :(
That's odd. As long as you are using a version of Windows no older than Vista it should run fine. It has been tested on Vista, Windows 7 & 10 with no problems detected.

China is expected to surpass the United States as the largest market for Royal Caribbean cruises in the coming years, according to its chief executive.
China is already the second largest market for Royal Caribbean, and in the latest effort to tap into the fast-growing market mainland market, the cruise liner christened its newest ship, Ovation of the Seas, in northern China's port city of Tianjin.
The 168,666-tonne ship is 348 metres long and can carry up to 4,900 passengers and 1,500 crew. The three ships in its Oasis class are even bigger.
The Ovation of the Seas will offer four to eight-day cruises to South Korea and Japan from Tianjin. Tickets cost from 700 yuan to 1,300 yuan (HK$820 to HK$1,520) per night.
China is expected to deliver 4.5 million passengers by 2020, according to the cruise economy research institute of the Shanghai International Shipping Institute.
The US$1 billion Ovation of the Seas also comes with Chinese elements, including a pair of giant panda sculptures and works by Chinese artists.
Under an agreement with the Palace Museum, a collection of signature pieces would be on display on the ship, while paintings and artworks created by artists from the museum would be available for auction on board.

Despite the many impressive examples of human inventiveness, our technological solutions for micro air vehicles are still pale in comparison with the elegance, effectiveness, power efficiency and supreme functionality with which nature has solved so many problems. This is particularly true for the flight of birds: No comparable technical solution of a small, autonomously flying vehicle has yet been demonstrated, despite the many potential applications. It is typical for these applications that they require complete autonomy in navigation, small size of the air vehicle to access also confined out- and indoor spaces and ultra-low power consumption for extended operation times.
The small scale Autonomous Micro Air Vehicles requires new approaches to various aspects of navigation and control because existing solutions typically make use of complex and heavy sensors systems that also consume too much power to micro air vehicles. We propose therefore to investigate the use of digital cameras for all key aspects of autonomous operation from vision based flight stabilization support to global localization. For full autonomy all the computations will be carried out on an on-board embedded computer. Energy and weight constraints and limited computing power are major challenges which require novel and efficient computer vision approaches. Furthermore, we propose to use the local communication not only for exchanging data between the micro helicopters, but to estimate also their relative arrangement. This will enable us to realize small swarms of micro flying robots capable of fully autonomous and coordinated operation in cities and other dense environments.
Our S&T endeavor proposed in this project will therefore focus on 1) micro helicopter design, 2) visual 3D mapping and navigation, 3) low power communication including range estimation and 4) multi-robot control under environmental constraints. It shall lead to novel micro flying robots that are:
In order to achieve these challenging overall goals of the project, major progress is required in the following fields:
All these challenges need to be addressed under the hardware constraints imposed by a micro helicopter, i.e. total weight of around 500g, low computation power and low energy. In the following we continue by re-visiting the current state-of-the-art and by presenting detailed outlines of the sub-goals.

The West Hartford Public Library is celebrating its 120th anniversary with a birthday party and a retrospective look back at how it became an official town department in 1897.
Martha Church, the director of the library, said that in 1893, the Connecticut state legislature passed a bill offering matching funds to towns that created public libraries.
"It's not surprising that West Hartford comes along in 1897 and goes ahead and does that," Church said.
But the presence of a library in West Hartford goes back much further, to 1753. The church congregation now known as First Church had a library for its members.
"If you think about it, most people in town in the 1750s, you belonged to the church," Church said. "That's the beginning of a library in this community."
In 1837, Noah Webster donated 78 books - one of which the library believes is a book published in 1834 that is still in its possession - to the church.
"He said this is so you can create a subscription library that anybody can belong to," Church said. "That becomes the West Hartford Library Association and you become a member if you pay. That's what libraries were like all over the country. They were subscription libraries. But you don't have to be a member of the church. And this is all before West Hartford is a separate town."
Later, in 1880, James Talcott gave $5,000 to help establish the Free Library of West Hartford at the church.
"That was a lot of money in 1880," Church said. "He said it was to make it free to everybody and use this money for the books."
On Nov. 10, 1897, West Hartford's selectmen made the decision to start the town's public library. They gave $200 - the maximum the stage legislature would match - and it was the first library budget. Elizabeth Elmer became the first librarian, and the library stayed in the church until 1917, when the first library building was built at 7 North Main.
"She had been working for the church," Church said. "Now, there's a little salary for her and money to buy books. Prior to that, books are coming to them donated."
The library will celebrate that day's events - and all of the changes that happened in those 120 years - on Nov. 12, with a birthday party complete with party games, balloons, cake, and entertainment. It will take place at the Noah Webster Library, from 2 to 4 p.m. There will also be a display of historical photos and information.
Church said this history shows how interested in reading West Hartford has always been.
"From its earliest beginnings, it's a community of people who read and value a library," Church said.
One of her favorite parts of West Hartford's library history is the Elmwood Library Association, a group of readers in the Elmwood part of town that requested books be delivered to them by wagon. Church said that was basically the advent of a branch library.
Agatha Monahan, the library's local history librarian, said it was fascinating during her research into this to see all of the changes in the library, and in what the library has offered.
"What I thought was interesting was how the library addressed the changes," Monahan said. "They had a record player for music. Then they had different formats of tapes, VHS, and DVDs. As the town developed, so did the library's services and materials to address those needs."

Title: Naked Tails
Author: Eden Winters
Cover artist: Shobana Appavu
Publisher: Dreamspinner Press
Amazon: Buy Link Naked Tails
Genre: paranormal romance
Length: 234 pages
Rating: 4 stars out of 5
A guest review by Sirius.
Summary: This book widened my horizons as to what kind of shifters may exist in mm romances and overall I thought it was a pretty enjoyable ride.
Seth McDaniel wasn't raised among a shifter passel and has no idea what it's like to turn furry once a month. An orphan, torn from his father's family at an early age, he scarcely remembers Great-aunt Irene. Now her passing brings him back to Possum Kingdom, Georgia, to take up a legacy he doesn't understand and reconnect with a friend he's never forgotten.
As Irene's second-in-command, Dustin Livingston has two choices: assume control of the passel or select another replacement. Unfortunately, the other candidates are either heartless or clueless. Dustin's best hope to dodge the responsibility is to deliver a crash course in leadership to his childhood pal Seth, a man he hasn't seen in twenty years. However, while Dustin's mind is set on his task, his heart is set on his old friend.
Seth's quest for answers yields more questions instead. What's with the tiny gray hairs littering his aunt's house? Why do the townsfolk call each other "Jack" and "Jill"? Do Dustin's attentions come with ulterior motives? And why is Seth suddenly craving crickets?
I grabbed this book because, well I wanted a chance to read a good one. Eden Winters rarely disappoints me and I thought her work would be a good bet. As you can see from the cover shifters keep growing in mm romance. I have never read the book with opossum shifters before. I will be very honest – realizing that these critters will feature prominently in the book made me raise my eyebrows a little bit. I was having trouble picturing opossums as romantic characters; moreover I did not even find the opossum on the cover to be very cute.
So I did what I always do when in doubt – I went googling. I found some really cute pictures of these animals online and proceeded with the book in much better mood. They were *adorable*. And go check out the picture of the triplets on the author's website if it is still there – so very cute and funny. Yes, there are triplets running around in the book, no I will not tell you more about them, you should check them out yourself ;). I have to admit though – I do not really think that opposums make very good shifters, but that is just my personal bias 🙂
I thought the story was actually one of the best shifters stories around that I have ever read – based on my simple googling at least the animal side of the shifters was researched and incorporated in the characters' personalities and behavior extremely well. I was very impressed. It was also very funny in places.
For a paranormal romance this story I would say is very well grounded in reality. Yes, as I said above, the animalistic characteristics of the folks living in Possum Kingdom are quite important in their personalities and in the story, but at the same time we get to see the life in the small city, the politics, even the election campaign of the sorts and it all felt very realistic and amusing to me. In fact I wonder if the election campaign was inspired by elections in the US which we lived through this year. I actually wish that the candidates would have behaved somewhat similarly to how our candidates behave in this book.
But of course the story is not only about the life in the Possum Kingdom, even it is an integral part of the story. The developing romance between Dustin and Seth is front and center and it worked for me. The blurb tells you that the guys had been childhood friends, so I feel I can tell you that more often than not I have very little patience for the story which makes it out that the guys were not able to forget their true love even if they were just little kids all those years ago. I thought this story avoided the silly trap very well – yes the guys remembered each other as one would remember your best childhood pal, but it is not like they were sitting around and were not involved with other people on pretty serious level. I would call their romance more the story of reconnecting with the old friend and realizing that now your friend may become somebody much more important for you than just a friend.
Interestingly enough I *really* enjoyed the separation time for our characters in this story. It made all kinds of sense in the world for them to stay separate for the reason they did for a while, but at the same time it did not feel like they were separated forever. I felt like the love between them did not go anywhere and as soon as they deal with stuff, they will be back together.
The story also has one of the very best female supporting characters I have read about in mm romance. I am always wishing for better characterization of the women in mm romances and as far as I am concerned there can never be enough of them, but wow even though I have seen few of interesting characters Monica was amongst the very best. She was a force of nature, but what impressed me the most is that the author gave her a very real flaw and did not turn the flaw into "awww how cute she really is, she just does not know it , but everybody around her does". Monica is rude, or "lacks social skills and she knows it :-)". Her first meeting with Seth, well let's just say I wanted to slap her silly for all the crap she told Seth. I get why she said it, but find out what the facts really are woman before you start running your mouth. In any event, what I am trying to say is that I like Monica as I would like the real person – knowing her flaws, but seeing that she has much more good qualities than flaws and I have not yet met a human being without flaws in my life. I thought it was a very skilled characterization here.

So brownies are an awesome food to make gluten-free but I should emphasize that gluten free doesn't equate to healthy in this instance. I adapted them from a couple of recipes and I am very happy with how they came out. Also in the spirit of embracing I have rolled in a number of other holidays into the celebration dessert; how you might ask?? By using up left-over christmas and easter chocolate is how!! If you plan on doing the same, be sure that the chocolate that you are using is also gluten free because not all chocolate is. Also, always be sure that your chocolate is in date.
Gluten free Brownies
90g Butter
75g Caster sugar
75g Dark brown sugar
250g chocolate (preferably dark, but I used milk and it was delicious)
2 large eggs
3 tbsp cocoa powder (NB - not drinking chocolate)
3 tbsp cornflour
100g hazelnuts and/or almonds, ground
1 tsp vanilla extract.
1 - Preheat oven to 180. In a thicked based saucepan, melt the butter and sugar together.
2 - Add the chocolate and stir vigorously until melted. Remove from heat before fully melted and
3 - Add eggs and beat.
4 - In a seperate bowl mix the ground nuts, cocoa and cornflour.
5 - Add everything to a mixer, or one bowl and then beat with an electric mixer, or vigorously with a
6 - Pour into a buttered (and optionally cocoa powdered) cake or bread tin and bake for 30 minutes, or until the center no loner shakes. Let cool in the tin and then enjoy.
These brownies are deliciously fudgy and nutty with a huge chocolate hit. They are also firm which is useful for serving a parties and other celebrations. I sprinkled on icing sugar for decoration, which worked as good contrast.

Well, the first thing you are going to need is experience. You will not be able to walk into an environment with a degree, no certifications, and expect to be hired. You should look into getting at least, the minimum in certs, A+, Security+, and either Server+ or an operating system cert like Windows 7 or Server 2008 R2. This way, you will have some type of technology background.
Now, you may want to get a job as a system administrator for a couple of years and get your hands dirty per say and then from there move into the security field.
Or, you might try the NSA. They are looking for candidates for mentorship in the Information Assurance and with your degree, if you have a clean background, you should be able to qualify. The mentorship goes for three years, they teach you what they want they way they want it taught, after that, you get your first posting.
Good luck in your future, I hope that this helps.

Magical sleigh ride. I took my 74 year old father on this sleigh ride as it was something we had wanted to do whilst in Zakopane.Very easy to book, good clear instructions and the horseman met us at the entrance to the valley.We were given a lovely warm blanket and off we went on our ride through gorgeous snowy scenery to a lodge that served us hot chocolate and a yummy cake.The horseman told us that his father had also been a horseman and his son may also grow up to do this, nice to see traditions still alive in some places.The horse was well looked after which was also nice to see!Overall a magical experience in beautiful surroundings would totally recommend!
reviewed on Trip Advisor
We enjoyed a lot our sleigh ride in Chocholowska. I would like to thank the attention that you had with us. I have no doubt I'd repeat with you again (and with the same weather!!!!). The driver of the sleigh ride was very friendly too. I hope to repeat next year if we can visit Zakopane again!!!
Thank you very much!!! Dani
Thank you Barbara for the picture ad a fantastic day in Zakopane! We really enjoy everything about our visit and will be sure to tell all our friends
Garry and Michelle
What time is recommended to start the sleigh ride?
In my opinion the best time to start the sleigh rides in the Tatra National Park (Chocholowska and Kościeliska Valleys) are the morning hours (between 8.30 and 9.30am), before the valleys get crowded of walkers, hikers and other sledges.
What would be appropriate clothing on the sleigh ride?
Ski jacket and pants would be the best option, don't forget gloves and warm hat. The coachmen supply blankets that assist to keep you warm also.
Will any other people ride with us in our sleigh?
No, they won't.
Does your offer is the cheapest one in Zakopane?
No, it isn't the cheapest one, but I hope it's the best one:)
Should we expect any extra fees?
No, all the obligatory fees are included but you can of course buy some extra meals (or alcohol drinks...) in the mountain refuge.
Do the coachmen speak English?
Some of the coachman speak basic English and we are doing our best to employ them for our sleigh rides.

My Name is Larry Ali, and I'm a young musician. I started pursuing my music career in 1999 at the age of twelve. It was when I got my first beat machine that I was inspired to make something, of talents built up inside. Back then LL Cool J, Too Short, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Ice Cube, Jay-Z, Nas, Tupac, and Biggie assisted in the making of an artist self-named "Slim Duece." Along with proclaiming a name came the beginning of a new production label. "Execution Style Records" was founded in Summer of 1998.
After a preparation of four albums came "Multiple Talents," the first studio recorded album on compact disc 2005. Underground albums from the CEO "Slim" kept the production label alive; 10* Below: Me, Myself, and Slim: Year of the Duece: and Underground. "Multiple Talents" hit the streets first as an introduction L.P./album (all original content). Then Slim Duece collaborated with Bishop, formally known as Episcopos. "Slaves of Righteousness Vol. 1." dropped as an E.P. (Half of an L.P.) raking in a status among the Christian Community.
Early Summer 2011 "The Relief Mixtape" was released online. A complation of half a dozen videos and 2k fliers promoted the project. It achieved 15k Youtube Video views, by projects end.
In Mid July 2011, Island Def Jam Backed Single, "Cash-Checks" was digitally released on iTunes, Amazon, and Rhapsody. Planned to be marketed for the duration of one year, this will be the first single off the E.P. "Pay Me In Time-Shares." Prior to release Slim Duece signed a two year agreement with BMI and a Digital Distribution deal with Island Def Jam Recordings (Only for Single).
At the beginning of 2012, "The Expiration Mxtp" was released online. 4 Videos, 2 Hundred CD's, and 5 Hundred fliers were used to promote this project. It achieved 90k Youtube Video views, by projects end.
2015 Marked the Re-launch of Slim's Career. He re-Released "The Expiration Mxtp" with about 4 new Song, 2 Originals. To Help with the Relaunch, Slim released a visual to the lead single "Point of Reference."
Backing the Project are New Sponsors MTV and VH1. The two Singles will be only new videos shot. Second single "Tha Topic" will be released with its own campaign. 1k CDs, Flyers, and Free Download Cards will be used as promotional tools. More blogs, placements, and press will be used to Market this Project. Slim inked several "Clothing Sponsors" to kick off his Merchandise Sales and increase Branding. Special Edition Collections will be released Exclusively by Slim Duece's parent label "E-x Est. 1998" through Clothing Lines such as: Nike, Adidas, American Apparel, Hanes, Champion, Alternative Apparel, and Sport-Tek. These collaborations are well under way, and will be premiering as early as Summer 2015.

About Nikki Jean
Vocalist and songwriter Nikki Jean, a native of St. Paul, Minnesota, was a member of Nouveau Riche, a Philadelphia-based group featuring Roots affiliate Dice Raw. The group released a pair of EPs and never achieved lift-off, though Nikki did some outside work during that time, including the lead vocal on a cover of Stings Be Still My Beating Heart, recorded with ?uestlove of the Roots' Randy Watson Project for Ubiquitys Rewind! 5 compilation. She gained wider exposure in late 2007, when she contributed vocals to two tracks on Lupe Fiasco's The Cool -- Little Weapon and the single Hip Hop Saved My Life, the latter of which she also co-wrote. The following year, she performed with Fiasco as one of the opening acts on Kanye West's Glow in the Dark Tour. She subsequently focused on her solo career and forged a close alliance with producer Sam Hollander; she sought him specifically for his work on Carole King's Love Makes the World. Hollander and Nikki conspired to gain songwriting input from a a number of legends, most of whom peaked during the '60s and '70s. Though Columbia signed Nikki, the label didn't see the project through and dropped her in October 2010. S Curve swept her up and released the album, Pennies in a Jar, in July 2011. The diverse set of throwback-oriented songs, all custom built by Nikki Jean's light yet powerful voice, counted King, Thom Bell, Lamont Dozier, Paul Williams, Burt Bacharach, Jeff Barry, Jimmy Webb, and Carly Simon among its staggering list of co-composers. The album also featured Steel and Feathers, a song intended for Bob Dylan's 1981 album Shot of Love that had been left incomplete and unrecorded for three decades. ~ Andy Kellman

Thank you and it's great.
The service, as always, has been fantastic, which is why we use OVL for all our vehicle sourcing needs. We are always kept up to date on deliveries and when getting quotes for new vehicles, you are always very competitive. Thank you for your continued support and assistance.

We are delighted to have come back to the Little Green Car (OVL Group) for our second vehicle. As we found last year, the team were very helpful in guiding us on the right model specification for our needs, and found us an amazing deal that was much better than we expected. The process was smooth, documents straightforward, and we were kept fully informed at every stage though to the exciting delivery day! Having had other less good experiences in the past, I am so glad we found this Little Green Car!

I have been thoroughly impressed from the initial search for my choice of car through to delivery.
When I received my car today the wait was worth it!
From choosing the right contract for me and terms, the team at OVL could not have made it easier thank you so much and I am hoping for a few of my friends to follow suit as well!
Thanks again

This is the third vehicle I have arranged through OVL over the last seven years and see no point of changing provider such is the level of service of service I receive. What impressed me on this occasion was the support given at the outset of the process that helped me choose the vehicle that best matched my needs. Sound advice, not pressurised in the slightest; in short I am a delighted customer!

I have been ordering cars from you for nearly 7 years, ordering 6 cars during this time. I want to point out that the reason I keep returning for business is down to the experience I have when engaging with Kate Day. Over the years she has been nothing short of exceptional in her management of my expectations, providing knowledge of the industry and its processes and most importantly making me feel like a valued customer. I have recently started a company, and as my business grows we will be looking at building a fleet for the sales and consultants we employ, This business is ringfenced for OVL and my future growth will add to yours. This is down to Kate and the service she provides, and the fact that OVL process and procedures make your organisation good to deal with and is delivered at high standards across all areas I have engaged. I just wanted to drop this note to you to highlight this feedback and share my experiences and wish you all the best for future business growth.

I would like to give a huge thank you to Neil and to Jane at the "Little Green Car". Neil had to search far and wide to locate the precise Smart model and colour of my dreams, and to get it to me quickly. Thank you for your perseverance! Thank you also to both Neil and Jane who were able to secure a good finance deal despite my changing country and job during those weeks. You are part of a great team, and we will definitely be back to you for our next car.

From start to finish this has been a great experience. Radka my adviser helped me through each stage in a very professional and helpful fashion, at no time did I feel rushed or under any type of pressure.

"First time I've got a lease car and it couldn't have been easier. Leasing my new car from LittleGreenCar was a very easy and good experience. All done on line with no hassle. They helped me with questions I had on car leasing and with the application process, although it's really easy. The price and choice of cars is excellent. Delivery was very slick. Thank you!"
Harris Sturt Chapman
I just wanted to thank you and Chris for your excellent service throughout the process of leasing my new car. Chris was great in securing the exact car I wanted and at a great price. Since agreeing the car with Chris you have been excellent in keeping me informed and up to date with everything and extremely helpful in sorting out my personalised number plate in particular. Dealing with you both has been a pleasure and I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending the professionalism of OVL and both of you personally to anyone looking to lease a car.
Ross Final
Christopher Pallet
Just a quick note to thank you very much for all your help with the acquisition of my new car.
Dealing with you has been an absolute pleasure. You have ensured that the whole process was straightforward, smoothly executed, and carried out in a no nonsense, communicative and really friendly way.
Importantly, you have made what could have been a dull process a really enjoyable and exciting experience.
The coincidence (or perhaps class and taste?!) that you have a similar car, and were so enthusiastic about it, added a welcome personal dimension: particularly as at the start of this I had decided, for no real reason at all, that I didn't like BMWs!
Your team deserve a mention too: continuing the excellent service while you were away.
The car's a beauty and drives wonderfully; so I may well be a convert!
You can be sure that should the opportunity arise, I will recommend you and OVL to anyone looking to lease a car.
Thank you again Kate, and all the very best,
Simeon Spencer FNAEA

A fantastic service right from the start. From working hard with me to find my ideal new car, feedback throughout the process and collection of the vehicle. Andrew Beale's customer service is brilliant. Thank you so much, from a very happy Range Rover Evoque driver!

In the past we have used OVL on and off over a number of years for the odd vehicle or two. However last year we decided to standardise the way we procured our vehicles and Scott at OVL was instrumental in helping us draft a Vehicle Policy. We now use OVL for all our replacement vehicles across the whole fleet, currently eight vehicles, and have been extremely happy with the service we have received. Scott knows our requirements and the budgets our drivers are working with and takes care of all the donkey work sorting out the vehicles available and dealing directly with them. Meadowrose are very satisfied with the whole package from selection of vehicle to delivery and to the after care service provided by OVL.

Hi Kate, This is my first business lease and, following my experience with OVL, will certainly not be my last. From helping me source my car with your detailed knowledge of the different vehicles on the market, to the great personal touch of a telephone call once delivery had taken place (just 2 weeks after first contact), you have dealt with absolutely everything for me. All I have had to do is wait for delivery of my brand new car. As a sole trader ordering 1 car, I am aware that I will be one of your smallest cases (you no doubt have many companies ordering fleets of cars). That said, you responded to every phone call and email almost immediately and made me feel like the most important client you have. I really can't express enough how grateful I am for the service you have provided and will certainly be recommending you to as many people as I can. I am truly delighted. With very best wishes James
James Chisnall
I have used OVL twice now for my cars - they are very competitive. They were the most competitive quote and also were prepared to quote on number of different options. I have been very pleased with both contracts so far and would recommend them to anyone looking for a competitive price as well as a good service.

Not sure what Jane at your office did, but I think she must jump tall filing cabinets and catch bullets in her teeth, within five mins of speaking to her the chap from the collection company rang with a very different attitude full of apologies and is collecting the car this evening.

I would like to take this opportunity of thanking OVL in the supply of BMW 530d. Excellent service, positive response to my initial enquiry. Always kept up to date on the cars order progress, arrived on the day required. Priced £200 per month less than my local BMW dealer.

Hi Guys, the new car arrived yesterday and it is amazing, it is far more superior than I will need or deserve - just pure luxury. Thanks for all your help, much appreciated.
Brontë Water Coolers Limited
Dear Chris, We would just like to take this opportunity for thanking you and Jane for all your work in arranging the delivery of our new car. We are absolutely delighted with the Note, there is loads of space in it and it is much better for me to drive. From your very first phone call in reply to my email enquiry, you have been a pleasure to do business with. We have had every confidence in you and when at the last moment we decided to change the colour of the car, Jane went out of her way to ensure that we could get what we wanted. There is no doubt in our minds, that in 3 years time, we will becoming back to OVL for our next car and have let all our friends know about you. Throughout the process Chris, you have kept us up to date and I have found you to be very approachable and friendly. Once again many many thanks to Jane and yourself, and all the very best for the future. Kind Regards,
Elizabeth Arrowsmith

If you are a small business owner, you might be considering how to increase customer retention. One way to do this is through incorporating credit card processing for small business owners. Let's face it – in modern times, few businesses can be successful without some type of credit card processing for small business. Very few people carry cash or checks in their wallets anymore. Even with an ATM available nearby, not all customers are willing to go to an ATM to withdraw money. Installing an ATM in your own business is a large expense and hassle in itself.
There are different ways to process credit cards at a business. If you are a really small business, such as a single owner of a small line of goods who sells on the go, you may consider a credit card reader that attaches to your phone. It should also be able to send receipts to emails as well. For a brick-and-mortar store consider contacting a credit card processing solutions company. They are experts in determining which POS system and related software and hardware works best for your business needs. They will set up any equipment you need such as credit card readers, cash registers, installing software, etc. They will train all employees and managers in how to use the new system. They should also be available throughout the learning period if any questions arise in regards to how to process credit cards. If they provide a good maintenance plan, they may have people to keep your software updated and maybe even accountants who can help with the bookkeeping. All you have to do is ask.
So maybe you have been putting off installing a credit card reader, worried about the cost or the technical knowledge. Now you know how easy it is when you can find someone who already has the expertise and can do it for you. You don't have to worry about the setup, or the technical training. You will be so glad you did so, and find that the expense of paying an expert to do it will pay off massively. When you start being able to process credit cards word will spread and many new customers will come through your doors. The expense that you have to pay a credit card company for this service is minimal compared to the amount of money you will make. Customers prefer convenience and are willing to pay credit card fees for the ability to pay right away instead of wait. Not that you can't also accept cash or check as well. Maybe you could reward customers who pay by cash or check with a discounted price for items they buy.

We have an invasive plant in our back yard...some people call it Bamboo. It makes a nice hedge in the summer with nice green leaves and then in the fall all the leaves fall off. In the early spring once dry it is very brittle and in fact burns very quickly in our fire pit. Any suggestions on how to get rid of it?
Soak the ground so that it is soft, then start digging. Dig up every last piece of root you can find.
What does everybody else call it, if some people call it bamboo?
To get rid of some stands of bamboo, you need earthmoving equipment and just haul away all the topsoil, replace. It just takes a segment of rhizome to reseed it.
Cut it to the ground in the spring & then keep hitting it with a round up type product as it leafs out. I've also heard that pouring straight round up in the cut off stalks in the spring will kill it too.
Unless it is a clump type bamboo, it will keep spreading. Only a physical barrier a foot or two below the ground will stop the root/rhizomes from spreading
I can't speak for your particular plant, but here in the Pacific Northwest we are having problems with a bamboo-like invasive, non-native species called Japanese Knotweed. It's especially problematic because it spreads extremely easily through cuttings. That means that cutting it down or digging it out is not recommended because that will cause it to spread. The ONLY suitable means for controlling it is a systemic herbicide.
As a landowner, you are responsible for removing invasive and noxious weeds from your property. In some states and with some weeds, you can be cited for failure to remove them.

Classic of the week: Armin van Buuren - Communication
As the end of another splendid night draws closer and the lights slowly fade, there's only one song that can make a perfect ending. It's the ultimate end-of-the-night anthem to masses of trance lovers out there, a worthy pay-off to the clubbing adventures. It's Armin van Buuren's 1999 classic 'Communication'!
Two years after the grand success of 'Blue Fear', Armin's first international hit, the Dutchman released the very first and original version to a track that would eventually return in 2 new remakes, Part 2 (2000) and Part 3 (2007). In 1999, Cyber Records released the original and with its dreamy start, synth-driven melody, the simple but compelling piano notes and its relentless energy, immediately secured a place in the hearts of ten-thousands of trance lovers.
13 years after its release, Armin has grown into one of the world's most successful DJ's and producers. But despite his many new hits and successes, 'Communication' still lingers in our minds. And who knows…there might just be a Part 4 coming up!
Check it out on Spotify, on Armin's '76' album!

I am convinced that Chicago has the best tamales (sorry L.A.). This is all thanks to the Tamale Man. I like to think of the Tamale Man like the Tooth Fairy, appearing between the hours of 10pm and 3am and bringing wonderful treats to the city of Chicago. Unlike the Tooth Fairy, the Tamale Man delivers his treats at bars throughout the city, bringing a cooler full of piping hot chicken, pork, and cheese tamales that he sells at a price of 5 for $5 to hungry (and sometimes drunk) patrons. For only $1 per large tamale (I could make a meal out of three) I am a) always eager to buy at least a bag or two, and b) amazed at how this guy makes a profit.
If the Tamale Man could make such cheap (and delecious) tamales, I figured I could too. So this weekend I set out to make Chicken Tamales con Salsa Verde. I have heard that making tamales is time consuming and the man helping me at the grocery store reminded me several times that "tamales are not easy to make." He was right: you need to set aside a whole day to you make tamales. Next time I will work ahead, setting aside two afternoons: one to prepare the meat and the next to make the tamales.
If you have the time, these tamales are worth every minute. The recipe produces fluffy corn dough filled with spicy and juicy chicken–an addicting combination. While the recipe yields about 24 tamales, between my roommate, boyfriend, and me they lasted less than 48 hours. Since they are easy to store in the fridge or freezer and reheat using a microwave, oven, or stove, you can bet I will be doubling this recipe next time!
Alex Milling is a recent graduate of Northwestern University and is excited to eat some more tamales this week.
Chicken Tamales con Salsa Verde
Serves 6
Recipe adapted from Rick Bayless
Total Cost: $16.61
Cost Per Serving: $2.77
(The tamales I made cost $.70 per tamale, which means the Tamale Man might make about $.30 per tamale).
You can find dried corn husks and maesa at any Mexican grocery store.
1 whole chicken (about 5 pounds) ($7.50)
1/2 onion, cut into large slices ($0.13)
2 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed ($0.11)
10 – 15 peppercorns (in stock)
3 teaspoons of salt (in stock)
4 cups plus 2 tablespoons fresh masa for tamales ($2)
One 16-ounce bottle tomatillo salsa ($2.99)
1 8-ounce package dried corn husks ($1.75)
10 ounces (1 1/3 cups) shortening ($2.18)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder (in stock)
3 to 4 cups chicken broth leftover from poaching the chicken (in stock)
Day One: Prepare the Meat and the Sauce
Remove the bag of giblets and wash the whole chicken. Place in large stock pot and fill with water until chicken is covered. Add onions, garlic, peppercorn, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Cover and bring to boil over high heat. Reduce to medium heat and let cook for about an hour and twenty minutes or until skin and meat begin to fall off the bones. Drain chicken broth into glass bowl, cover, and save in the fridge. (This is important! You will need the broth for the masa dough tomorrow). Then move chicken to large cutting board. Shred chicken with fork or hands. Set aside 3 lightly packed cups of shredded chicken.
Pour 1/4 cup water into a small bowl and whisk in the masa until well blended. In a medium saucepan, bring the salsa to a boil over medium-high heat. Pour in the masa mixture and whisk until the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from the heat and let the sauce cool to room temperature.
Scoop the 3 cups of shredded chicken into a bowl and stir in the thickened salsa. Season with salt to taste. Cover and put in fridge to fill tamales with tomorrow.
Day Two: Make Tamales
Soak corn husks in sink or large bowl filled with warm water for 2 hours. Place plate over corn husks to ensure they are fully submerged. Separate out 24 of the largest corn husks and pat dry with a paper towel.
With an electric mixer on medium-high speed, beat the shortening with 2 teaspoons salt and the baking powder until light in texture, about 1 minute. Continue beating as you add the masa 1 cup at a time. Reduce the speed to medium-low and add 2 1/2 cups of the broth. Continue beating for another minute or so. Beat in enough of the remaining 1 1/2 cups of broth that dough is spongy and can hold its shape in a spoon. Taste the batter and season with additional salt if necessary.
One at a time, form the tamales: Hold one of your chosen corn husks with the wide end toward you. Begin on the bottom left corner and use a spatula to spread about 1/4 cup of the corn dough so it covers the left two-thirds of the width of the corn husk, leaving the right third uncovered. Also cover the bottom two thirds of the height of the corn husk, leaving the top third uncovered. The amount of dough needed to cover this area will vary depending on the size of the corn husk, but that goal is to have a thin layer of dough on the aforementioned area of the husk (see above picture). Place husk on counter and spoon about 1 1/2 tablespoons of the chicken filling down the center of the dough. Pick up the left edge of the tamale (edge where there is dough) and roll edge (hot dog style) until you reach the right edge. Then fold the top (unfilled edge) over to create a flap on one side. One end of the tamale will remain open. Place tamale aside, flap down, and continue filling the rest of the corn husks until you run out of dough and / or filling.
To steam tamales all at once, you will need a large tamale steamer or Asian stack steamer. I improvised and used a large colander placed in a stock pot that was filled with about 4 inches of water. Since the lid to the pot did not fit over the colander, I extended it using tin foil. This method effectively ensured that a sufficient amount of steam reached the tamales.
Place a few leftover soaked and dried corn husks on the bottom of the steamer. Then place tamales in steamer with folded side facing the bottom of the steamer and the open side looking up toward the top of the ceiling (or lid in this case). Cover tamales with a few more soaked and dried corn husks. Set the lid in place and steam over medium heat for about 2 hours. Tamales are done when the corn husks easily peel from the masa. Before serving let stand a few minutes in the steamer so they have time to firm. Then unwrap tamales and enjoy all your hard work!

Owing to the generous appropriation by the town we have been able to keep the library open three afternoons and evenings during the fall and winter months, and this additional afternoon and evening have been greatly appreciated by the public. We are glad to be able to state that the reference library is more and more used by the pupils and is of great assistance to them in their work.
In the early part of the winter we had the windows and doors weatherstripped. This should result in a considerable saving in fuel and in additional comfort during the cold months. In the summer the weatherstripping should be a protection from the dust of the street, which more or less injures the books.
The library is in the peculiar position of being submerged by its own success. We are beginning to need additional shelf room for the books. The town is increasing in population and the library building, ample in size when constructed, should be enlarged to meet the growing demands upon it. The additional space could easily be secured by an extension in the rear to correspond with the porch in front. Before this is done, however, the vacant lot on Academy Avenue, adjoining the library lot, should be acquired so that there will be room for a driveway after the extension is built. We understand that this lot can now be purchased for a reasonable sum. Should the lot on Academy Avenue be sold and a building erected close to the library, it might detract seriously from the beauty of the structure.
REPORT OF LIBRARIANI hereby submit the following report of Hampton Public Library from February 1, 1936 to January 31, 1937:
Both book and magazine circulation show some increase over the preceding year.
The Library has been open for three days a week since the first of October. It is the expressed desire of many that it may be a permanent feature.
Several books have been rebound. The copies of The Hampton Union for one year have been bound in one volume, and the Town Reports for the five years 1921- 1926 have been bound in one volume. The remaining copies are to be sent to the bindery in the near future.
A Library District meeting was held at the Library on June 25. Ten towns were represented. The morning roll call was conducted by Miss H. G. Fernald, of the Portsmouth Library, on the topic "A most unusual reference question". Miss Vaughan, of Portsmouth, gave an interesting talk on "Methods of preserving historical data". Miss Roys, of Exeter, gave a book talk, and addresses were made by Miss Annable and Miss Brackett. The main feature of the afternoon session was a talk by Dr. H. C. Bingham on the work of the National Youth Administration.
Book Week was observed by the display of the poster "Books To Grow On" and several new juvenile books were purchased at this time.
The following periodicals are to be found in the Library:
American Magazine, American Boy, American Builder, American Girl, Atlantic Monthly, Baseball, Bird Lore, Child Life, Christian Century, Christian Herald, Christian Science Sentinel, Current History, Delineator, Exeter News-Letter, Flower Grower, Fortune, Forum, Good Housekeeping, Hampton Union, Harper's, House and Garden, Hygeia, Ladies' Home Journal, Leisure, Life, Literary Digest, Manchester Guardian, Mercury, Nation, National Geographic, National Parent-Teachers, News Week, Popular Mechanics, Popular Science, Readers' Digest, Review of Reviews, Rural New Yorker, Saint Nicholas, Saturday Evening Post, Scientific American, Scribner's, Union Signal.

This week's stop on my blog tour is Musings From An Addicted Reader and the question she asked me was a bit difficult for me.
I'm very into movies but I've honestly never considered my Diablo Blanco Club books for a movie. And I'm even more at a loss when I try picking out the actors who'd play my characters.
To see which book I chose and the actors and actresses I selected to play the characters. I'd love input on what you'd think or who'd you pick.
Leave a comment to be entered in the contest. Both here and on
Musings From An Addicted Reader.
And, if you're interested in chatting live with me...tonight from 8-9 pm EST I'll be on Night Owl Reviews Chat with Elizabeth Black as part of the Midnight Seductions Authors.

I don't watch a lot of tv or movies so I can't say what actors I would cast. As I'm reading, I rarely put a "face" on the characters. I visualize general body type and coloring but the face is a blur. I don't know if that makes sense to anyone else.ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks Becki,Delete
I appreciate your input even if you don't watch movies. I like knowing you build a picture yourself of the characters.

text: Show Hide image Politics 13 September 2012 Life after London 2012 Narratives are easy to construct; lasting social change is much more difficult. Sign-up ''I'm not racist," Rose told me over a cup of tea at her home, "but immigration has got too much. "I used to know every family in this street," she went on, her voice shaking a little, "but now I hardly recognise anyone. People come and go and you don't know them – it's like a different country." It was 27 August 2011 and I was in Essex on the first day of a three-month tour around the UK seeking the views of ordinary people about the state of British society for my book, British Voices. Rose was my first interviewee that day, an elderly widow who'd kindly invited me into her house when I met her by chance in a residential street in Romford. I have thought back to my conversation with Rose many times over the past six weeks, as I read newspaper commentaries about Britain's "golden summer", a period during which we have "changed for the better", "looked in the mirror and liked what we have seen" and "emerged as a nation comfortable with ourselves". I wonder whether Rose's feeling about the country will have changed at all as a result of events in the Olympic Park, less than ten miles from her home. I met Rose three weeks after riots spread across English cities in early August 2011. At the time, the prevailing narrative was that Britain was "searching for its soul" in the aftermath of the unrest; some commentators had rediscovered the "Broken Britain" narrative, painting the UK as a country of "problem families" and "feral youth". Yet the riots themselves came just three months after the royal wedding, a time when the nation had "come together in celebration" and "put on a great show for the world". Story time These contrasting narratives about the same society demonstrate howany national story constructed on the basis of a single event will inevitably lack nuance – particularly if they paint a wholly positive or negative picture. The people I met on my travels were complex and contradictory, capable of both kindness and ignorance, prejudice and understanding. As I interviewed them about their hopes and fears, I could almost see the good angel and the devil sitting on their shoulders. If we want the Olympics and Paralympics to be part of real and lasting change in Britain, these are exactly the people we should be paying attention to: having watched Mo Farah win Olympic gold, will someone like Rose now be less concerned about people from overseas coming to the UK in the same way that Farah did? In the Olympic spirit, will Rose's neighbours put themselves forward to do something positive in a community where Rose felt isolated, and, crucially, will they maintain that commitment? Narratives are easy to construct; lasting social change is much more difficult. But without it the "Great Britain" story may soon feel dated and empty, and someone, somewhere, will dust off terms like "Broken Britain" once again.

I volunteer at Oakland Cemetery, the historic cemetery here in Atlanta. We wear costumes for several annual events, so I wanted to do a Victorian widow costume. I went with the Natural Form patterns, so it's the TV420 bodice, 221 underskirt and 324 overskirt. The undergarments include the TV110 corset, 105 combination underwear and 170 petticoat. I used cotton pique: I wanted a rather plain look, since widows weren't supposed to be flashy (but I had to have some fun with the hat!).
A huge thanks to Heather and those of you who helped me on here! This is my first Victorian outfit and the biggest project I've ever sewn.
The corset was so much easier to make than I expected! The mock-up I made with scrap fabrics turned out so well that I never made the "real" one:
A couple views of the finished product:
I made a mechanical arm and went for a steampunk look at DragonCon:

The mock-up I made with scrap fabrics
I need better scrap, none of my muslin-making fabrics are that pretty. Lovely matching across the corset front, and that mecha-arm is wicked!

That is a stunning mechanical arm. Would you mind telling me how to made it? Even a rough summary would be great.

sneak peek: magnolia moonlight
today we round up a full week of fabulous sneak peeks with christina flowers of magnolia moonlight. the architect/industrial designer turned graphic designer opens the doors to the home she shares with her (just married!!!) husband. man, i'd kill to have a porch like that to chill out on at the end of a day. . . don't forget to check out her newly launched website (cute calendars and cards!) and more photos of her home here. [thanks, christina!] –anne
[above: My husband built this coffee table. He incorporated some wooden boxes from a project I did in grad school. It has these fun windows where I can put paintings/little chalk boards… and it holds my magazines and sketchbooks so there are not piles everywhere like there used to be! The painting above the couch of the tree was done by my husbands grandfather and an amazing artist, Lester Jay Stone.]
The Breakfast nook. The best part about it is the morning light that pours in the windows. We found the table as-is at a yard sale – our best find yet! We got the chairs there too and painted them.
Our porch. We love to sit in the rockers and play a little chess after a long days work! . . . My office. I love the bead board walls – they were here when we moved in. The green sketchbook is from wyly community art center in basalt, co. I love it! The New Yorker cover really just gets me. I've had it up in all the houses (6) i've lived in since 2002.
We have this wonderful workshop out back. It is full of tools + bikes + is the home to this little go cart i'm riding. My husband picked it up off craigslist about 1 month after we moved in + now it is a must do activity for all of our friends when they come over!
The painting is from a series I did when I needed a break from the computer screen. It is inspired by screen printing, but painted in acrylic. The photo is from our move cross country from Colorado to Virginia. We were 1/2 way across and had the windows down the entire way…When my husband and I first started dating, I bought him a few little toys to cheer him up one time when he had a cold. I've kept collecting them for him over the years. I made the box shelf from an old soda box I found at a yard sale and painted.

This week Sydney Ross Singer is back! When he was here in September we had an amazing listener response and we started a "30 day bra-less challenge." We will find out how that went and we will delve further into the issues of breast cancer and breast health.
If you missed the first show you can check it out in the archives by clicking here. Sydney Ross Singer is a medical anthropologist and director of the Institute for the Study of Culturogenic Disease. A pioneer in the field of applied medical anthropology, Singer examines the cultural/lifestyle causes of disease, uncovering how our culture is making us sick. His assumption is that our bodies are designed to function properly, but the attitudes and behaviors taught to us by our culture often get in the way of our bodies working properly. He uses his eclectic background in biochemistry, anthropology, and medicine to identify harmful lifestyle practices, some of which are promoted by our culture, its industries, and even its medical authorities. As a result, much of Singer's work is challenging to the status quo, and has been suppressed by the affected industries. (This is why most anthropologists study cultures other than their own. No culture likes to honestly look at its foibles.) Along with his wife and co-researcher, Soma Grismaijer, Singer has written numerous groundbreaking books on the cultural causes of disease, including the internationally recognized bestseller, Dressed To Kill: The Link Between Breast Cancer and Bras. Singer and Grismaijer, who also study the human-animal bond, live with their son along with a community of animals on a rainforest preserve and coqui frog sanctuary in Hawaii.

Oldest Harry Potter Fan Fic on Fan Fiction Dot Net, posted by Gypsy Silverleaf on September 4, 1999. May sort-of be the only pre-Azkaban fic in existence. The book hadn't come out yet in the United States (yes, Virginia, there was a time when Harry Potter books weren't released worldwide on the same day) and the American author was thus only vaguely aware of the storyline. This explains a lot.
The "man of unknown" is Professor Thomas Erwin, a teacher at another Wizarding School, who seems to hate Harry for no apparent reason. Erwin was a well-loved man until Voldemort's downfall, after which he turned into a grouch and forbid the name "Harry Potter" from being spoken in his presence. It turns out Erwin was James Potter's half-brother and that he's pissed because Harry got sent to live with the Dursleys instead of him. Realizing what a jerk he's become, Erwin threatens to kill Dumbledore if he tells Harry the truth. The Ministry tries to arrest Erwin for this, but he escapes and lives out the rest of his life as a hermit before dying in misery. The End.
Not particularly good or bad, but certainly odd. Notable mainly for being the first fic written for Harry Potter, which now has the most fics on Fanfiction.net by a huge margin. You can read it here. See here to see a tongue-in-cheek version of the story acted out with the Potter Puppet Pals.
This fanfic provides examples of:
- Byronic Hero: Erwin. The same author would later become the first to cast Snape as one.
- Downer Ending
- Early Installment Weirdness: One of the few pre-Azkaban Harry Potter fanfiction works, and so it lacks a lot of things that became more commonplace after the glut of Harry Potter fanfic that cropped up after Goblet of Fire.
- Elsewhere Fic
- Fatal Flaw: Erwin's jerkiness, which is ultimately his undoing.
- Freudian Excuse
- My God, What Have I Done?
- Re-Cut: Gypsy reworked the story in mid 2001, mainly to Retcon the bits contradicted by the third and fourth books. This version can be seen on her website and FictionAlley, but the original version remains on Fanfiction.net.
- Tragic Hero: Erwin, very much so.
- Ultimate Job Security: Madam Tatooli, the headmistress of Sharadine School, hasn't fired Erwin because he's just that good a teacher.
- Villain with Good Publicity: Dumbledore in Erwin's opinion. The story somewhat agrees with him.
- If her other works are any indication, so does the author.
- Wizarding School: Sharadine School. Hogwarts also shows up.
