Jeanmarie Riccobono is the principal clarinetist in the Traverse Symphony Orchestra. She also teaches clarinet at Northwestern Michigan College and the Bay View Music Festival.
She'll be the soloist this weekend in Aaron Copland's Clarinet Concerto with the Traverse Symphony Orchestra.
Riccobono visited IPR's Studio A for a performance and conversation. She performed the first movement of the Copland concerto with collaborative pianist Susan Snyder.
Riccobono also talked with IPR about the "endurance factor" required to play the Copland concerto and why it can be tricky finding a place to practice when every member of the family is also a musician.
Listen to the entire performance and conversation below.
Riccobono will be featured with the Traverse Symphony Orchestra on Sunday, October 14 at 3 p.m. in Corson Auditorium. The program also includes music of Brahms and Sibelius. Click here for more information.

Annuities often get a bad rap. They can be seen as difficult financial products to navigate, due to misinformation, rumors and myths. As a result, many people are put off from the idea of purchasing an annuity. But in truth, annuities can be used to help you generate income and provide the opportunity for growth of your annuity while protecting it from market downturns. To help you understand annuities better, here are 6 misconceptions you may have heard about them.
Myth: Annuities Are All the Same
No! All annuities are NOT the same. Although annuities share many common attributes, each annuity type has its own set of rules. In general, an annuity is a contract between you and an insurance company in which you make a lump sum payment or series of payments and, in return, you will receive a regular stream of income at some point in the future. There are a range of options, but typically they fall into two categories – an immediate annuity and a deferred annuity. An immediate annuity allows you to make a lump-sum deposit and immediately start drawing income. With a deferred annuity, you give an insurance company money and the company pays it back at a later date based on a guaranteed interest rate. Typically, you'd start getting payments that don't begin until years down the road.
Myth: Annuities Have Expensive Fees
False! Most annuity types have no maintenance or annual fees. Those that do will have varying fees depending on the type of the annuity and additional benefits it may provide. Make sure you understand the type of annuity you're considering and the benefits it offers, then weigh those against other products. Annuities can offer valuable features that aren't typical of other investment options, like tax deferral, income guarantees, guaranteed minimum values and or a guaranteed minimum death benefit. Make sure you understand any fees associated with the annuity
Myth: Annuities Are Not Tax Efficient
Incorrect! Fixed annuities are long-term products and can be a valuable option if you are looking to grow your retirement savings. Interest credited on any annuity will compound on a tax-deferred basis until you begin taking out money. Over time, you may have the potential to build more retirement income than you would have been able to had your earnings been taxed as income. While IRAs and 401(k)s also offer tax deferral, those contributions typically have a yearly cap. Fixed annuities commonly have no annual IRS contribution limits.
Myth: I Can't Take Money from an Annuity When I Need It
Wrong! Many annuities give you the option to withdraw a portion of the contract without a penalty. Some annuities may require a waiting period before you can access the full value of the annuity. You may be subject to fees and penalties for an early withdrawal, but many insurance companies allow you to take up to 10% of the accumulation value per year without paying fees.
Myth: If I Die, All the Annuity Money is Lost
Nay! Many people believe an insurance company will keep the remaining value upon death. This is true of a "life-only" payment option within an annuity contract, but life-only is just one of many payment options you can choose from an annuity contract. If you don't want the insurance company to keep your contract value when you die, you can choose an annuity payment option with that feature. Everything the annuity can and cannot do should be written in your policy.
Myth: Annuities Are Just for Old People
Nope! Annuities can be excellent tools for accumulation and income, no matter your age. Many young workers are using annuities as a tax-deferred way to save for their future. Every situation is different, it's important to seek tax advice from a qualified tax professional when purchasing an annuity to understand any withdrawal penalties that may apply.

No, I audition this CDP before,I dont think it lacks bass
at all.
at all.
HELP Lack of bass with Pioneer PD-65 Elite
I have to agree with you! I had this unit for a number of years, and it never had strong bass response. My later Copland 288 had marginally better bass, but the simple, cheap Philips 963 DVD/SACD is all over both those in bass response. I have Swans Allures, and before, I had Celestions with two M&K subs. Still no bass. I think the new all in one players do better on bass. The PD 93 before the PD 65 did not have much bass response, either.
I've got a PD-65 that my Brother was using as a transport for a while, but i can't remember what it sounded like when used as a player. As far as the comments about the Philips 963 goes, this unit is VERY "warm & bloomy" sounding i.e. it is far from neutral in terms of sonics. As such, it would be easy for a LOT of players to sound "lean" compared to the 963. Sean

Obama Immigration Order Would Boost N.J.'s Sputtering Economy, Group Says
From the Star-Ledger, July 10, 2015:
More than 200,000 unauthorized immigrants living in New Jersey could provide a much-needed boost to the state's sputtering economy if President Obama's executive actions on immigration policy were allowed to proceed, according to a report by New Jersey Policy Perspective.
Released in advance of a federal district court hearing in Texas Friday challenging the president's executive order, the report predicts New Jersey would see 1,500 jobs and $29 million in state and local taxes added to its economy each year.
The executive order would protect from deportation 55,000 children in New Jersey who were brought to America before they were 16, and would allow 146,000 parents of children who are legal immigrants to apply for work authorization. Another 277,000 immigrants who entered the country illegally would not qualify, according to the report.
"These federal actions on immigration are a clear, simple and important step forward for millions of immigrants across the nation. And as a state with many immigrants, New Jersey clearly has a lot to gain," says New Jersey Policy Perspective policy analyst Erika J. Nava, the author of the brief for the left-leaning group.

For a limited time we are offering Martexin "Gridwax" Army Duck in Charcoal
We carry 6 sizes in our standard rolls, 8", 10", 12", 15", 18" and 24" wide. If your tools are very close to the width of the roll, you may want to go up a size, as handle thickness takes a bit from the width.
All rolls have 16 tool pockets and 2 spacers, spacers are a great place to keep your pencil!
8 Inch Roll-Pockets are 3" deep (7.5 cm) x 2.5" wide (6 cm)
10 Inch Roll-Pockets are 4" deep (10 cm) x 2.5" wide (6 cm)
12 Inch Roll-Pockets are 5" deep (12.5 cm) x 2.5" wide (6 cm)
15 Inch Roll-Pockets are 6.5" deep (16.5 cm) x 2.5" wide (6cm)
18 Inch Roll-Pockets are 8" deep (20 cm) x 3" wide (7.5 cm)
24 Inch Roll-Pockets are 11" deep (28 cm) x 3" wide (7.5 cm)
Made from 10.10 oz. Martexin Army Duck Gridwax in charcoal
Paracord tie looped through a grommet for easy replacement, tie color may vary
Can it really be that simple? Yep.
I find the flat pocket design and alternating spacing make this the best roll you can buy for a large collection.
No need for gussets as the pockets will accommodate nearly every chisel on the market.
No need for bulk-adding flaps when tools nest opposite each other.
Here is how it works:
Pockets are offset on both sides of the roll. Slip your handle into the pocket and the business end of your tool rests between the two opposite pockets. This keeps tools from contacting one another. Not only are your tools easy to identify, they'll never cut through the bottom of a pocket. The alternating design makes for even rolling. Once you've rolled it up, your tools will ride safe and secure, unable to slip out as they are nested.
Yes, you can even turn your tools edge-in if you have blade guards!
Tools not included.

British Hearthstone pro and former Team Dignitas player James "GreenSheep" Luo has qualified for the Hearthstone Championship Tour Winter Finals in the Bahamas.
GreenSheep played from the UK Fireside Gathering at the ESL UK Studio on the weekend, alongside other UK players including BoarControl, CelticGuard, HelloLeeroy and European No.4 GeorgeC.
GreenSheep was dropped from Dignitas last year as the org exited Hearthstone and Trackmania, but since then he has persisted, and has been playing in open cups to build up his HTC points.
He went 5-2 in the Swiss stage of the competition on the weekend, before beating Pakrovac, the No.1 seed and a second player to reach the European finals. Check out the brackets here.
"We're incredibly proud of what James achieved on the weekend. He is proof that sheer hard work and dedication can take you to the top tiers of your game."
GreenSheep eventually lost out to Pavel, the world champion, but has vowed to get revenge at the Winter Finals.
At the Winter Championship Finals later this year, GreenSheep will play with the other three people who qualified from the top four in Europe, and 12 others who will qualify in similar competitions around the world.
— James Luo (@GreenSheepHS) February 12, 2017
Gg's @Pavel_HS I'll get my revenge in the Bahamas :^)
— James Luo (@GreenSheepHS) February 12, 2017
ESL UK is particularly proud of GreenSheep's achievement.
ESL UK spokesperson Jacob Harrison told Esports News UK: "We're incredibly proud of what James achieved on the weekend. He is proof that sheer hard work and dedication can take you to the top tiers of your game.
"We're excited to watch how he performs at the Winter Championship, where he'll represent the United Kingdom on the global stage.
"James is not the only amazing player in the UK, and for the others the iron is hot – spring season of the Hearthstone Championship Tour is just around the corner, and James is an amazing act to follow."

Technical analysis of GBP/JPY for January 15, 2016
GBP/JPY is expected to trade in a lower range as the key resistance is at 169.85. The pair is reversing down and stays below its key resistance at 169.85. Meanwhile, the relative strength index lacks upward momentum. The first target to the downside is set at the horizontal support and overlap at 167. A break below this level would open the way to further weakness towards 166.50.
Trading Recommendations:
The pair is trading below its pivot point. It is likely to trade in a lower range as long as it remains below the pivot point. Short positions are recommended with the first target at 167. A break of that target will move the pair further downwards to 166.50. The pivot point stands at 169.85. In case the price moves in the opposite direction and bounces back from the support level, it will move above its pivot point. It is likely to move further to the upside. According to that scenario, long positions are recommended with the first target at 170.60 and the second target at 171.35.
Resistance levels: 170.60, 171.35, 172
Support levels: 167, 166.50, 165.75

"With every breath, the old moment is lost; a new moment arrives. We exhale and we let go of the old moment. It is lost to us. In doing so, we let go of the person we used to be. We inhale and breathe in the moment that is becoming. In doing so, we welcome the person we are becoming. We repeat the process. This is meditation. This is renewal. This is life."
― Lama Surya Das, Letting Go Of The Person You Used To Be
― Lama Surya Das, Letting Go Of The Person You Used To Be
There are now 1000's of pieces of research that say why we should meditate. They all ring true to having MANY health benefits, bringing in more peace and calm, yet sometimes we just need help knowing where to start. I always say, start where you are. If you can sit and breathe for one minute, great! If you can breathe for 10 wonderful. Deepak Chopra uses mantra's in many of his meditations, and speaks of how the mantra is the taxicab that is taking you there (to the deeper relaxed place). When I help people begin this process I love using "calm" as you breathe in and "relaxed" as you breathe out. Or like it says above, "when I breathe (as you inhale), I am safe (as you exhale)". The beginning goal is just to be able to lower your breath into your belly and allow the attention of the mind to have a focus on the words. Take some time to scan the resources below.

Dear Diary,
I made a huge mess in the kitchen but I can't clean it up.
But first, I'm sorry, Diary. I've neglected you. Again. Our relationship has stalled out these past few months, hasn't it? But as you'll see, it's not you, it's me. I know, I know, that's the type of clichéd bullshit we whisper into the ears of tearful lovers, but Diary, you and I aren't lovers. You're a physical object. Well, an… electronic cloud? At the very least, you're a webpage, which is not a thing you can love in the human relationship sense, but it is a thing you can love in the "hey, I love this thing" sense. So I love you, Diary, you great thing, you. And I'm back! To tell you about how the roommate and I keep forgetting to buy fucking paper towels.
We're going on several MONTHS since a paper towel has stepped a quilted, papery foot in our house. Yes, months. Yes, that's absurd. No, it's not on purpose. No, it's not an environmentalism thing. No, I'm not mad about. Yes, it has gotten gross. The kitchen that is. We're in trouble. Like, real bio-hazard trouble. I think the EPA is about to send in their elite corps of Bio-Hazard Bros to sterilize the joint, wrapped in layer after layer of HAZMAT suit, armed to the teeth with Super Soakers filled with bleach and Lysol grenades. And honestly? I wouldn't blame them. I'd blame us. The dudes that keep forgetting to buy paper towels.
Okay, that might be a tad bit hyperbolic. It's not like we don't tidy up at all, leaving sticky messes to fester fuzzed mold on the laminate countertops. Measures of disinfection have taken place. They're just… non-traditional to say the least. Which is the perfect prompt for, yup, you guessed it! RANDOM INSERTED LIST TIME! Ben, in no particular order, what are things you've used to clean up spills instead of paper towels? Well me, there's:
1.) Kleenex. Not good. Just isn't strong enough for those really messy spills, and it falls apart when wet. Also, if you call Kleenex 'tissue paper', fuck you. It's Kleenex. Just like it's Googling things, not internet searching things. Or eating Jell-O shots, not gelatin shots. Speaking of which, think about how much of a nightmare the whole finding-out-Bill-Cosby-is-a-rapist-piece-of-shit thing was for the dude (non-gendered use as always, cause feminism, duh) who does PR for Jell-O. That had to be the CUSHIEST gig of all time (literally, I assume Jell-O's office forgo office furniture in favor of their sculpted product). Who the fuck ever needs a statement from Jell-O? You're not running new products out. You're not generating press releases. You're not dealing with violent, Jell-O related controversies. If people didn't give a shit that Jell-O was made from ground up horse hooves, then what the fuck would they actually care about? Apparently, the spokesperson of your company being a serial rapist is what. The public ain't cool with that, completely cratering their stock price in response. Who knew! Have fun distancing yourself from that, now most likely unemployed Jell-O PR dude. Anyway, shout out to all the tremendously brave, resilient survivors who came forward in that heart-breaking New York Magazine piece. And fuck you, Bill Cosby. You should be in jail, preferably one underwater with the windows open. And Kleenex, I don't know why you got dragged into this now absurdly long paragraph, but you don't clean spills up for shit.
2.) Toilet paper. Same problem as Kleenex, only it's even thinner and falls apart even easier, turning into soggy goop in your hands. Toilet paper is a terrible thing to use to clean anything other than your ass and random globs of toothpaste stuck in your bathroom sink. And sometimes it even fails at that.
3.) Oxy wipes. Yeah, I tried cleaning up kitchen messes with the same thing I clean my greasy, post-pubescent face with. They might be good at cutting through zits, but they lack the surface area to really make a dent on that shattered glass of Chardonnay. Not recommended.
4.) A beach towel. Purely a response to the lack of surface area from the Oxy wipes. But you know what? It worked. But it's definitely just a one and done deal, because you can't really do fucking LAUNDRY after every tiny kitchen mess you make. That's the whole reason we have paper towels in the first place.
5.) A dirty gym sock. So remember that titular mess I couldn't clean up? Well, it wasn't for lack of trying. Post gym workout (Do you even lift, bro? Yeah, but not much.), I was trying my best to get my grilled pork loin on, when an overzealous meat flip resulted in a nice splash of pork juice raining down on our linoleum tile. Seeing as dinner was in perilous danger of being over-cooked, and with no Kleenex, toilet paper, Oxy wipes, or beach towels in sight, I did the only thing a man can do in that situation. I cleaned it up with my foot. Yeah, Diary. I cleaned up pork juice with my dirty gym sock. Well, not so much cleaned it up as smeared it around in porky circles. It was a shameful moment. I threw away the sock.
Yup, that's how bad things have gotten. The thing is, I'm not even sure how the roommate and I got to this point. It hasn't been malicious or passive-aggressive. There's been no ill-will towards each other. There's been plenty of opportunities to fix this. We've both been to the store dozens of times. Hell, I was at a flea market recently and even saw paper towels for sale there, and didn't even think to buy them. I go grocery shopping EVERY WEEK. Never come back with them. Same for the roommate. It's a fucking idiotic showdown of forgetfulness.
We're just two moronic cowboys who keep riding in for pistols at high noon, hopping off our future Jello-O mold steeds, walking off our ten paces, turning, reaching down for our holsters, and coming up empty, having forgotten to pack our guns AGAIN. It's absolutely ridiculous. The townsfolk don't even watch us anymore. They just roll their eyes and get back to awaiting imminent death by dysentery.
So yeah Diary, I made a huge mess in the kitchen, but I can't clean it up. At least not until I grow a brain.
Later Diary!

Mary (Durning) Caley, born on May 19, 1921 entered into rest on Thursday, October 3, 2019. Mary Rose Hartigan was born the youngest of four children in a family of Irish immigrants in New Haven, Connecticut. Her family, along with the many other immigrants in her community all suffered through the Great Depression. Thanks to the generosity of her brother Francis, Mary was able to attend St. Raphael's School of Nursing in Connecticut, graduating in 1942. She served in WWII as an Army nurse, where she met and married Bill Durning. They came back to Bill's native Ohio and started a family. Bill eventually left the family, and Mary went to work at New London Hospital, and then Fisher-Titus. She then worked for Dr. Charles Resseger until her retirement. Mary remarried in 1987 to Donald Caley, but became widowed and returned to her home in Hartland Township. Mary is remembered as a beautiful person inside and out. She was such a good and moral person, and was blessed with a hilarious sense of humor! She was a longtime member of Our Lady of Lourdes Church in New London.
Mary is survived by her children Maryann (Art) Miller, Pat (Bob) Johannsen, Maureen Dreschel (all of Collins); Bill (Jessica) Durning of Fairbanks, AK; Bob Durning of Riddle OR; Mike (Debra) Durning of Ruggles; Robin Chandler of Greenwich; and Kathy Durning of Westerville. Also surviving are fifteen grandchildren and numerous great grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her beloved daughter Linda Lachowyn, her husband Donald Caley, three siblings, Betty (Carpenter), Francis, and Eddie, and her parents Edward and Elizabeth Hartigan.
Mary will be greatly missed by the many people whose lives she touched in the Huron County area. Donations may be made to Stein Hospice, 1200 Sycamore Line, Sandusky, OH 44870 or Our Lady of Lourdes Church, 18 Park Ave, New London, OH 44851.
Friends will be received on Sunday, October 6, 2019 from 4-7 pm at Eastman Funeral Home, 200 West Main Street, New London, OH 44851. Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Monday, October 7, at 11:00 am at Our Lady of Lourdes Church, 18 Park Ave, New London, OH 44851. Burial will follow at Holy Cross Cemetery, New London. Online condolences may be shared with the family at www.eastmanfuneralhome.com.

Some understanding can only be achieved via emotive experience of the whole.
Horizon separates earth and sky, shoreline divides land and sea, light differentiates night and day, the Manai'a individuates.
Some understanding can only be achieved via rational reductionism.
The Manai'a has foot, fin, and feather to explore land, sea, and sky; heart to feel; and mind to deconstruct.

An old guy on a mountain bike with a kick stand
An old guy named Bill did the Blue Loop on a mountain bike with a kick stand, went more or less as fast as I did, and stopped to take a lot of great pictures. Humble pie.

Cardinal Timothy Dolan appeared live yesterday on CBS This Morning to discuss what everyone in the media is talking about-the release of a controversial draft of the Catholic Church's document on marriage and family life. A select group of Catholic bishops and cardinals have been meeting in Rome to discuss how to address this issue and a draft of their initial thoughts has been released to the public. The release has caused a furor in the Church and in the media. Proponents for change have hailed the draft as a signal of a new direction in how the Church handles divorced Catholics as well as same-sex lifestyles.
I don't intend to discuss the relative merits of the document. I am not a theologian. However, anyone involved in public relations and crisis communications should take a look at Cardinal Dolan's interview with CBS. He was confident without being defensive. He was humorous while standing firm in his answers. He answered the reporters' questions with clarity and honesty. He admitted that the document was flawed and a work in progress. He didn't make excuses or attack those who asked him direct and pointed questions.
At a time when some in Rome have offered hysterical responses, Dolan was reassuring and in control. He didn't appear uncomfortable or surprised by any of the questions he was asked. He got out in front of the issue and was able to deliver his message without being controlled by the chaos surrounding the news. That's the right way to handle a crisis in messaging. We can all learn from this.

The benefits of a Binding Financial Agreement
The idea of a "pre-nup" has traditionally been considered a romance killer, a reflection of a lack of commitment by at least one of the parties to a marriage, or subject to the Hollywood stereotype of a rich old man marrying a gold-digger.
In Australia the "pre-nup" is called a "Binding Financial Agreement". The amendments to the Family Law Act 1975 extend Binding Financial Agreements to those in a de facto relationship.
Increasingly in Australia traditional perceptions are giving way to the acknowledgement that a Binding Financial Agreement is a practical solution to the reality of the statistics regarding the number of marriages that end in divorce. More than that, a Binding Financial Agreement accommodates the complexities arising in blended families where people are entering into their second and subsequent relationships with property from their previous relationships.
Coping with the emotional pain, stress and turmoil of a relationship breakdown can be made manifestly more difficult by having to negotiate the business of the break-up. Parties to the relationship have little time to mourn the loss of the relationship and recover some equilibrium before launching into the practicalities of the situation, like, who will retain the former family home? How will the other person afford to live somewhere else? What happens to the investment property? Even the most amicable of break-ups can produce anxiety and fear for the future for the parties to the relationship and feelings of dread and discomfort at having to discuss how to sever financial ties with the other person in an emotionally charged situation. For those whose relationship breakdown is not amicable, the desire for certainty, fear about lost future security and the lack of specificity about the financial contributions by both at the commencement of the relationship can fuel the ferocity of negotiations and push them towards undesired, but necessary, Court proceedings.
The existence of a Binding Financial Agreement, whilst not eliminating the feelings of hurt and anxiety, can alleviate some of the tension of the break-up and the necessity for any Court proceedings.
A Binding Financial Agreement sets out the financial circumstances of each person to the marriage or de facto relationship, including the assets and liabilities each person is bringing into the relationship. The Binding Financial Agreement also sets out what should happen to that property and any property the spouses accumulate jointly and separately during the relationship in the event the relationship breaks down. Both parties must receive independent legal advice before entering into the Binding Financial Agreement. The solicitor for each party must sign a "Certificate of Independent Advice" confirming that that each person has been informed of the advantages and disadvantages of entering into the Agreement. Generally, the Binding Financial Agreement comes into effect upon one of the parties to the marriage signing the 'Separation Declaration' to the Agreement, which states that the parties separated and are unlikely to resume co-habitation.
Essentially, a Binding Financial Agreement provides the parties to a marriage or relationship with the certainty of a 'to-do' list if they ever need a property settlement. Whilst a Binding Financial Agreement cannot be a crystal ball and list all the assets and liabilities the parties to the marriage will acquire during their relationship, the Agreement can set out how the parties want to divide any property they do accumulate and the manual steps for achieving the division.
The benefits of a Binding Financial Agreement are particularly important for those considering entering into their second de facto relationship or marriage. Under theFamily Law Act, whilst the assets each party brings into the relationship are taken into account as are later contributions by the relevant party, all assets are included in the property pool for division. The result for some is the discovery that assets they had in their mind excluded from the property pool (e.g. an inheritance) now form part of the divisible property pool. Those embarking upon a second relationship blending families with adult children should consider a Binding Financial Agreement in conjunction with an estate plan.
A Binding Financial Agreement should be drafted in such a way that it deals with the division of real property, shares, investments, motor vehicles, property held in trust and corporate structures and inheritances received by both parties. It is a complex document drafted to cover as possible scenarios in the event of separation. The advice of a solicitor is not only recommended, but a mandatory requirement for the validity of the document.

Insects and other foods the trout may be eating:
1. Blue-winged Olives
2. Little Black Winter Stoneflies
3. Quill Gordon Mayflies
4. Blue Quill Mayflies
5. Little Brown Stoneflies
6. Little Black Caddis (American Grannoms)
7. Hendricksons and Red Quills
8. Litte Short Horned Sedges
9. Sculpin, baitfish and small crayfish (Imitate with streamers)
10 Midges
The Hendricksons and Red Quills - Part 3
The Hendricksons and Red Quills usually hatch when the water is between 50 and
55 degrees. The nymphs swim to the surface to hatch using a wiggle motion of their
bodies. They may repeat this process several times. At least that is how they acted
when the nymphs emerged in my aquarium. I have raised them two different
seasons for my
Mayfly DVD
I suppose much of it depends on the weather and water conditions. It is logical to
assume that it is during this time that they are most subject to being eaten by the
trout. It is also quite obvious because you can usually see the trout swirling and
flashing when they are eating the emergers in the slow end of a pool.
Where there are good concentrations of these mayflies, the spinner fall is usually
very heavy. The males fall to the water or bank as soon as they mate. The females,
full of eggs, follow shortly afterwards. They appear from the sky it seems (very high
in the air) and descend to the surface of the water to deposit their eggs. They then
fall spent and die. There can be a lot of spent flies on the water in a relatively small
area. I have seen it start before the duns stopped hatching. When the happens,
there will be duns and spinners on the water at the same time. It usually doesn't
overlap though.
The females deposit their eggs in the same water that they hatch from. The spinner
fall usually starts very late in the afternoon just before dark. It is possible the best of
it will occur after the time the park permits you to fish. On cloudy, overcast days it
may start earlier. Most of the time you will need to fish as late as the rule permits.
If the hatch is heavy, the fish will usually get into feeding lanes and develop a
steady feeding rhythm eating them. Start out using a male spinner imitation. When
the action slows, if the females have arrived, change flies to imitate the eggs layers.
This may sound a little complicated and confusing but just remember that the males
fall first and you would want to start with a spent imitation of the male. They have a
dark rusty brown body with clear wings. When the females start to deposit their eggs
and you see them dipping to the water in the low light, change to the female spinner.

Do you need someone to talk too about you femdom fetishes?
Introducing BettyBaBoom our newest team member……
BettyBaBoom is a lifestyle domme that lives this lifestyle with her husband of 12 years. She joined femdomtraining.ca as a member and reached out to Lara to become part of her team. She loves spreading the word about this lifestyle and helping others achieve it. She has introduced Femdom/FLR to her friends, husbands friends and has participated in live training teaching others how to live this lifestyle.
She is excited to take phone calls from our members to assist them in their training too.
Phone BettyBaBoom if:
- if you want some advice on what to do to achieve this lifestyle
- if you want to be told live to do something nasty
- if you want to have virtual phone sex
- if you want to learn how to find a dominant woman
- if you are lonely and just want some dominant company
- if you want some order in your life with a strict regimen
There is no limitation to WHY you would call BettyBaBoom. She is here to help you with anything you desire. She is a pro and helping men learn how to introduce this lifestyle to their wives without turning them off. She is a compassionate, loving dominant woman that has all the answers you are looking for. She is available to speak in 15 minute increments for as long as you like, and on a regular scheduled basis of weekly or monthly calls.
For a limited time we are offering prepaid minute plans that are much better than per minute billing…..
This could change at anytime though. Especially during the beta period launch, where her calendar will fill up quickly with scheduled calls. This is the best time to participate in live one on one personal training or phone calls. There will never be a lower price, and in most cases, $3.99-5.99/minute is what other similar services will charge. On this page, for a limited time you have the following prepaid choices.
PrePaid Minute Plans
How It Works:
Each prepaid plan over 15 minutes can be divided into multiple sessions ranging in 15 minute increments and up depending on your package. So if you purchase the 5 hour/300 minute plan, you could potentially have 20 weekly sessions of 15 minutes each, or any combination in between. Even 5 hours all at once. The minimum call is 15 minutes.
Once your purchase is completed, you will be redirected to a questionnaire that will gather details on what you are looking to get out of the call. This information is forwarded immediately to BettyBaBoom where she will reach out to you to schedule your minutes ahead of time.
Due to the nature of these STEEP DISCOUNTS, and the fact that Betty is putting you on her calendar for scheduled appointments which blocks out other users for the same time frame, THERE WILL BE NO REFUNDS ON THESE ORDERS AFTER THE FIRST CALL IS MADE. If you wish to have a refund BEFORE Betty invests her time reading your questionnaire and taking the time to schedule your calls, you may do so. (this is usually a window of 2 hours after purchase) After this, there are no refunds and no exceptions.
If you have bought a large prepaid minute plan, and you have given 72 hours notice of a reschedule of your appointed time in one of your sessions, you may at Betty's discretion change your time. This is subject to availability to her calendar, and is not required on her part to accommodate the rescheduling. Having said that, Betty is fair, and if her calendar permits the change, she will accommodate. If she cannot, then you are required to be available at the scheduled time or forfeit that sessions minutes. Her time is valuable, and after all if you are training to be a submissive male, you should be available at your agreed scheduled times. We know emergencies come up, therefore, as mentioned, Betty will be as accommodating as she can, but it is your responsibility to be available for your calls.
Rules of Conduct
If Betty gives you her personal number to call, you are not to call this number anytime other than your scheduled call time. If you do so, the call will not be answered, and the calling number will be docked 1 15 minute session from their prepaid minutes plan. She is not giving you her number so that you can call her anytime you wish. She is putting you into her calendar FOR YOU, so be respectful of her time.
You are free to discuss anything you want with Betty, but you must be polite, respectful, and obedient. Failure to do these things will result in termination of that session without refund. Be a good boy. Betty wants to talk to you, but she will not take shit from anyone, so be a proper submissive and follow this protocol.
Have fun!
Last, but not least, enjoy your time with Betty. She will provide you what you need from this experience, and your life can be a lot better. Choose to use your time wisely, and you will have a blast. You will learn many things, and you might even get your rocks off as she instructs you to obey her commands on the phone. If you have any questions before purchasing any of these plans, feel free to drop her an email at firstname.lastname@example.com

is there any release dates or platforms for Silent Hill 9 ???
i can't wait . i don't have a PlayStation4 console. i wan't it but.......
So, is there a silent hill 9 game for Xbox360 ??? if it there .. i'm gonna to be very happy !
GoodBye Konami, my favurite game is silent hill 3 And Silent Hill 4: the room ................Loading editor
This reply has been removed
Looks like the possibility of it being a ps4 exclusive is pretty high, though they might bring it to Xbox One. ( Or maybe not, since Xbox grabbed Tomb Raider for themselves here)Loading editor
Kojima is being interviewed by Geoff Keighley later today, mainly about Metal Gear Solid but he's also said he's going to ask him about Silent Hill too now so hopefully we'll get some clarification. I myself have a PS4 so I can safely feel excited but I hope it's not exclusive because with the whole Tomb Raider thing I know how much it would annoy me (especially Silent Hill because it's my favourite video game series).
There are rumours though that the game is being co-developed with Sony Japan which means that the game would be exclusive. There wasn't a Sony Japan logo at the end with the Kojima Productions logo so I don't know how truthful this rumour is. I guess we'll have to wait and see.Loading editor
I just need a PC Linux release so badly. Silent Hill is the greatest series and my personal favorite. I am trying to faze away from consoles as much as possible and stick with my gaming PC. There needs to be a PC Linux releaseLoading editor

Wanna a short answer? Nope, Silent Hills is not a PS4 exclusive; it's not marked as so.
Presumably, Silent Hills will be released for: Sony PlayStation 4, Microsoft Xbox One and PC. Just play it on your computer! You don't have to buy a new console for playing only one game.Loading editor
Oh, and for its release date, the game won't be out until 2016 - according to many expectations. Feel free to ask me whatever you want, Friend!Loading editor
No one knows what platforms it will be on, other than the PS4. There hasn't been any official word on the subject at all. Given the amount of hype it's getting though, I highly doubt it will be exclusive to the PlayStation.Loading editor
I'm with Alessa, I think it will be like Destiny, it will be on multiple platforms but with PS4 on the most of the advertising.Loading editor
You both are right. No official word, but Silent Hills is not listed as a PS4 exclusive.
Nothing will change that unless Sony pays for it.
Check this please and write your opinions:

Bottom Dump Trailer Rentals
Great Western Leasing's extensive inventory of trailers includes bottom dump trailers for rent or lease. Bottom dump trailers or belly dump trailers haul loose material, but the product is unloaded from a gate at the bottom of the trailers. By unloading at the bottom of the trailer, the driver is able to spread the load out over a large area. The low dumping point also makes the trailer very safe, and it is very rare to tip over a bottom dump. Most bottom dumps or belly dump trailers are made of steel, and bottom dumps are generally 24' to 45' long and 96" to 102" wide.
Bottom dump trailers are used extensively with construction. The ability to scatter material over a wide area is especially effective for large building lots. Great Western Leasing also offers end dump trailers and side dump trailers
Bottom Dump Trailer Applications
Bottom dump trailers are generally used to haul the following materials:
- Sand
- Road Base
- Re-Ground asphalt
- Other loose material.
Bottom dumps are generally very heavy duty and many have 3 axles to accommodate heavy loads.
There are no products available at this time, but please check back frequently, as we are constantly updating our inventory. If you are looking for a specific model, please use the form on the right and we'll find it for you.

!! History Commons Alert, Exciting News
Thomas Martinez, an associate of the secretive white supremacist group The Order (see Late September 1983) who is facing charges of passing counterfeit bills on the group's behalf (see June 24-28, 1984), decides to become an FBI informant. Martinez's lawyer has told him that the FBI knows of his links to the group, and he could face charges as a co-conspirator in any future prosecutions. To hopefully avoid any such charges, Martinez gives detailed information on The Order and his knowledge of its crimes. He also agrees to collect more information about the group's activities (see August 1984 and After). [HistoryLink, 12/6/2006]

Dr. Jacob
My interest in helping infertile couples started while I was a third year medical school student. I saw first hand the emotional distress infertile couple experienced while I was helping the attending infertility specialist in his office. The patient told me, "Since I am not able to have a baby, I feel I am an incomplete woman". The tears rolling down her cheeks struck a chord in me and I decided then that I will dedicate my medical career helping infertile couples achieve their dream of having a baby. After I graduated from medical school and OB/GYN residency, I did a three year fellowship in Reproductive Endocrinology & Infertility at the Human Assisted Reproduction Ireland Unit of the Royal College of Surgeons, Rotunda Hospital, Dublin, Ireland. Here, I mastered all the advanced reproductive technologies and did research in the field of infertility. Our new Center for Reproductive Medicine & Robotic Surgery is a "dream come true" for me. The mission of my dream is simple: Make the dream of having a child affordable to all infertile couples by providing the best care, at an affordable price and in a friendly and compassionate environment. We are proud to offer a comprehensive array of services, in a responsive and efficient manner. Our single office setting enables us to have complete control over your care which provides you with a convenience that other centers may not be able to offer. We also provide extended office hours to ensure your care fits into your busy schedule. My staff and I are committed to exceeding your expectations and are confident you will find our office convenient, affordable, and run by a dedicated and caring staff.

Part of the STIHL Pro Cordless Power System, the RMA 448 TC mower is aimed at the professional market, or those with larger more demanding gardens.
It is a very capable piece of kit, which offers a great many advantages over traditional petrol powdered mowers.
Some of these advantages are discussed in our blog about risk assessments, fumes, and battery power.
Before moving on to look at issues such as build, quality of cut and ease of operation, lets tackle the elephant in the room. Battery life, and ask the question can battery power ever replace petrol for the professional plant enthusiast?
The answer is a resounding YES.
To elaborate…
We have been using the STIHL AP 300 36V, 6.0 ah Lithium-Ion battery.
A fully charged battery, with the mower in eco mode, is delivering in the regions of 45 – 55 minutes run time, with an average run. time in real life of around 50 minutes.
With a width of cut of 46cm this has given ample battery life to cut even the largest of our clients lawns, even when the grass has been damp or a little longer than we would have liked.
The eco mode is superb, the mower almost instantly revs up when cutting longer or wetter grass as additional power is required; dropping back to lower power output when this boost is not required.
Whilst talking of elephants in rooms, I am old enough to remember the early days of battery mowers, (the old lead acid batteries on an Atco) which were so lacking in power to be worse than useless. The RMA 448 TC however has power by the bucket load, more than matching similar petrol machines.
Key Features of the RMA 448 TC
46 cm Cutting Width
25mm – 75mm Cutting Height, with 6 settings
Sound Level in use 96DB
Drive 1 Speed
No roller
55l grass box
Mulching? There is an attachment to turn this into a mulching mower
Folding handle
Weight 24KG
Charge times
The AP300 Battery arrived fully charged and will recharge in 30 minutes in the AL 500 quick charger, or approx 4 hours in a standard charger.
With the high speed charger and one battery on charge and one in the mower, one could mow all day without interruption, however without a cup holder, there is no chance of more then 2 hours without a cuppa!
A particularly useful design feature is the additional slot for a spare battery, which saves spare batteries getting damaged in the back of the van or on the trailer.
The RMA 448TC comes with a metal STIHL high-lift blade, this is shaped to help reduce turbulence and move the clippings into the grass box. It has proved to be resilient to date, with only slight notching from the odd stone.
Grass Box
The grass box at 55l, with the usual compression of clippings, is generous and offers a realistic capacity to prevent unnecessary stops for emptying .
The top of the grass box hinges upwards for ease of emptying and there is an indicator to show when the box s full.
STIHL make quite a big thing about the design of the grass box, and it has to be said that the aerodynamics of the design mean that at the end of a few hours of mowing there are no clippings on ankles, socks or jeans, which is a welcome feature.
Build Quality
This is a very robust piece of kit. The handle with its unique mono arm design was an initial worry, could this be designed and manufactured to stand up to the stresses and strains of being used day in day out? The answer is, if anything it is over-engineered, and is both strong and sturdy.
The body is plastic, or Polymer PP to be more accurate, it has stood up to being loaded on and off the trailer, into the boots of cars and to general rough life of general gardening use with no problems, however only time will tells it is as able to withstand impact as well as the more usual aluminium body shell of our Honda petrol mowers, which we hope to replace in due course.
It is noted that there is some steel reinforcement in areas which may be abraded during use, and that STIHL claim this material to have a good impact resistance and UV stabilisation.
Adjusting the height of cut
This has to be the niftiest part of this mower, the rear lift handle has a trigger located within it, and one simply squeezes and lifts or drops the mower to achieve the height of cut.
This is incredibly convenient and easy.
However it is also difficult assess the height of cut being set.
After the initial shock that there is no cord to pull, just the magic orange button to press, the mower is light and handles positively in use.
So far so good, however there are a few areas where the mower could be further refined and developed.
For example, while there is very little in the way of vibration, the use of a cushioning material on the handles would increase user comfort.
The other niggle is that the drive kicks in quite quickly, a more gradual engagement would add an elegance of operation, as would the ability to control the forward speed.
We discussed our new mower with customers, who were intrigued by the concept of a battery mower and the green credentials, however they all commented on the lack of the striped finish that we normally achieve. Some customers asked us to continue to use our old mowers on their gardens as they like their lawns striped.
So, we would add the lack of a roller, or a roller as an accessory, is a key niggle.
Overall conclusions
We really like:
The build quality
The engineering
The positive handling
The grass collection system
The run time on a charge
The fast recharge time of 30 minutes with the fast charger
The slot for a second battery on the unit
The height adjustable handle
The fold
The light weight for loading and unloading
The fact the battery works with other equipment in the range
The eco mode, delivering instant power as it is required
The grass box
The lack of clippings on our trousers after mowing
Our niggles
The lack a roller, (which we understand would cut battery life, but which our customers have asked for)
The lack of a soft start for the drive, along with variable speed.
Our overall rating
We would give this mower an overall score of 9/10.
It is an excellent machine, which is more than capable replacing petrol powered equipment.
We will publish a further long term test review in a few months when we have lived with the machine for longer.
(We would like to thank STIHL for kindly providing an RMA 448 TC for review purposes.)

I did a very cool hack lately on one of my own websites. And then for some of my clients Shopify sites. Now they sell more and connect deeper clients and customers directly. If you have or want to have a website offering a service or product, get this app today. It's the best customer chat app for WordPress and Shopify I have tried.
Let me share another tip today. Not just to you who consider to start and create an online income stream, but also for those that already have an established brand, service or product. (Hopefully all of them in place)
How I got instantly connected with clients
First, let me tell you what I did as an example. On my member's website where I offer my mentor programs and coaching, I wanted to be able to have visitors chat with me directly to have their questions answered without the hassle of e-mailing.
I wanted to have an online Live chat. But one that looked good, and with a service that I could carry with me in my pocket.
After days of testing, trying and hacking of different solutions, I found the Chatra service. Instant love in the air. Why?
Let me quickly sum it up for you:
- It looks damn good, which was important to me
- It has an affordable price and a free option for single hustlers and freelancers like me
- I can hop on chats on my mobile phone while on the go
- It's simple to configure styling and options with instant changes on my site
- I'm setting up work hours for when I'm available
Pluss much more additional features. But these are the ones who got me hooked at first. It turned out to be the best live chat plugin for both WordPress and Shopify. And my clients are really happy with it because now I can response a lot faster and make them feel taken care of when connecting with me.
Why do you need a chat app on your website?
On Saturday I was running another course on how to create videos for Instagram and Facebook. One of the attendees, a young guy from a well known and prominent local company here in the south of Norway walked up to me. A few days before I had installed Chatra on their Shopify site.
He told me their sales went up right away because they were able to answer questions and support their visitor, Live. They have been having a good reputation for years. But with this new Shopify site and a slick Live chat app, the happiness rate with customers went instantly up several notches.
[tweet_box design="default" float="none"]A slick chat service for WordPress and Shopify. Even for mobile phone…[/tweet_box]
Chatra has called their app a "cart saver." And that's true. Even if you don't have a webshop, you should be able to talk to your visitors directly at the moment they are coming to your site.
If you offer a service like coaching, photography, physical products or in anyway should be in touch with a potential network; this will improve your reach, a lot.
Use the app for free on your website
Use Chatra for free and pay per chat agent to have all full features. I'm paying for mine because I wanted all the paid features. I love it.
You'll get Chatra plugins for both WordPress and Shopify. Just be sure to set up a free account first.
Okay, try this out. And I hope you will improve your sales, connections or responses on your website.

Becoming one with the plants. 😛
The Sweetest Girl.
Sexy new lingerie from Erratic, available at Collabor88. ❤
Because my world would be a wonderland.
Just a short post, with lots of things.
I am sick in RL with the plague (or you know, just a cold…) so I am not so chatty
I love this little shabby garden set from 22769/Bauwerk though, so I opted to take another picture of it:
Credits are all listed below ❤
Continue reading
I meant to get this posted yesterday but… several pics and miles worth of credits later I just didn't get it finished 😛
I wanted to share several pics of the interior of my current home set up, before I tore it down and started over. >.>
This post will be pretty pic heavy because I ended up with way more stuff than I intended.
The Wonder Room
There is still a little over a week left to visit The Arcade if you haven't already.
OMEN has released an Alice in Wonderland inspired set called The Wonderoom.
I am mildly Alice in Wonderland obsessed so I do like having this set around for decor purposes 😛
That's all for now – details below <33
3.20.14 – Happy
I have had the song "Happy" stuck in my head for what seems like days now and it's driving me crazy >.<
But I guess a bit of the happy vibe rubbed off on me for today's post.
Lots of pink and bright colors to welcome in the first official day of spring 😀
Not much free time today so keeping it short and sweet ❤
I am planning a bunch of fashion posts, in addition to a bunch of shoe posts (Shoetopia is opening soon!!!) but I wanted to squeeze out another home/decor post before I move on to all that stuff.
I am not giving up on Fall yet, I know a lot of people are switching their land over to winter and snow… but no. I want to hold on to fall as long as I can…and plus it's just barely November. After Thanksgiving I will probably get all winterized.
I set up the new tiny build from ++HY's++. The builds there are adorable, shabby chic, and very affordable.
Even though this house is on the small side I managed to still fill it with lots of things so this post will be pretty pic/credit heavy. That being said, on to the pictures 🙂
As for the credits, they are forever long….but if I missed something or you can't find something please let me know ❤
* I included the creators name in parenthesis so it is easier to find the items/stores.

Posted on 18 May, 2017 by Carlo Pecoraro
At the R Project website, R is defined as a free software environment for statistical computing and graphics. It compiles and runs on a wide variety of UNIX platforms, Windows and
There is no doubt about the power of R for statistical computing and data visualization. However, many biologists have found their first encounter with R to be discouraging and frustrating.
We discussed this topic with our instructor Dr. Ken Aho. Ken is an associate professor at Idaho State University and author of the book "Foundational and Applied Statistics for Biologists Using R."
1) Ken, how was your first encounter with R? and when did you start using it?
My first encounter with an R-alike environment was in a graduate statistics course that used S-plus. Like many others unused to a command line format I found this experience to be frustrating and daunting, although no-more-so than typical SAS operations.
I found S functions to be efficient and impressive even during my initial use of the software. However, I was left with a feeling that the program was somewhat mysterious and idiosyncratic, and probably "not for me."
I started using R intensively several years later (around 2003), when I began to apply computationally intensive approaches-- for instance, matrix randomization, multivariate analysis-- to my own data. It became clear that R could usually perform these operations faster than commercial software, and with much greater flexibility. I have used R more-or-less exclusively for statistics, data management, and graphics ever since.
2) Which are your main suggestions for a biologist who wants to start using R without wasting time and energy?
My initial anxieties with R were due to the application of functions merely to get answers, without adequately understanding basic language operations and environmental constraints. Thus, I recommend that aspiring R-users familiarize themselves with fundamental concepts before embarking on more advanced R user-defined applications, for instance, looping or calling other languages, or even using complex existing functions.
3) Which are the main reasons that led you to decide to write the book "Foundational and Applied Statistics for Biologists Using R"?
I came into my first faculty appointment in 2011 with a strong interest in statistics and a graduate degree in biostatistics. Given this, I was expected to be able to consult with students and faculty regarding analyses and experimental design and to teach statistics.
At the same time I felt that the R environment had been ignored as an incredible environment for pedagogy, and that applied documentation of R functions that allow analyses important to biologists were often missing and/or not organized into a central reference. I wrote the book to be both an R-centered teaching resource for graduate and undergraduate statistics classes and statistical resource and reference for biologists using R.
4) Could you tell us about your R library asbio and which analyses we can perform using it?
The asbio package has undergone a number of evolutions. I originally intended it to be a source for statistical functions with a biological/ecological bent, particularly multivariate analyses. However, while writing my book asbio became a warehouse for many pedagogic functions, particularly graphical user interfaces for animations and demonstrations. As a result the package currently serves two purposes: one, it provides companion software for my statistics textbook, and two, it is collection of applied biostatistical functions, some of which are based on my own statistical and ecological research.
Applied functions in asbio include: a wide range of plot and print methods for
pairwise comparisons that control for family-wise type I error following ANOVA-type tests; intervallic estimators for the true ratio of binomial proportions (i.e. relative risk), and the true
product of binomial proportions, including new methods; recently developed robust analogues to multiway ANOVAs; and multivariate community ecology functions.
Thanks Ken and see you in Berlin!

It all started with a road trip of New Zealand in January 2017. It was the best trip we ever took.
At the time my fiancé Lily was looking for a postdoctoral fellowship abroad (as it is customary to do so after a PhD), we fell in love so much with New Zealand that we were only left with one option: find a job there and move.
Three months later Lily found a job at the University of Otago, in July I found my role here at Firebrand and now we are here, in Dunedin. Easy!
We didn't know Dunedin very well coming here, having only spent a day in the city in January.
It is growing on us more and more everyday: the relaxed atmosphere, the small town feel with the big town activities/bars/restaurants but most importantly the people. Everyone here is nice, welcoming and friendly, we felt at home very quickly.
Even if the weather is a bit unpredictable it is not as bad as we thought (it is actually colder in France right now !).
On the weekends we try to go out and visit New Zealand as much as we can, so far we visited the Catlins (Jacks Blowhole was amazing), the Otago Peninsula, did a skiing trip at the Remarkables in Queenstown and have continued to explore Dunedin.
In the near future, we want to go to the Otago Museum in Dunedin, do a trip north along the coast, go back to Tekapo and probably more.
Thanks for having us Dunedin!

Extend Your Jon Hamm Obsession to His Filmography
It may seem as if Mad Men's beloved Jon Hamm came out of thin air a couple years back. But in reality, you've probably seen his handsome mug before and just not realized it. Like the persevering Peggy Olsons and Pete Campbells of the world, Hamm paid his dues moving up the ladder. Would the casting directors have done better to give him more prominent parts given his success as Don Draper, ad man extraordinaire? Of course! Read on for a roundup of his early movie roles — the first tiny drops in a long, wave-making career.
Dr. Michael Granier in The Day the Earth Stood Still (2008)
In this scifi release, Hamm plays a NASA
scientist whose team is studying an alien who has taken human form on Earth. Strutting around in the blue-green light of his lab, Hamm assists
us in understanding the science in the story — including the most important discovery in the history
of mankind! (Which, according to Keanu Reeves, is not Mad Men.)
Skydiving Guide Chris Knarl in The Ten (2007)
There are worse men with whom to share a tandem
free fall than Don Draper. (That pipe-smoking Paul Kinsey, for one.) But the allure eludes Adam Brody, who forgets to grab hold
before leaping from the plane in this movie. Brody
should have at least strapped on his parachute,
which is what Hamm is left holding as Brody falls to the ground… yet not his death
Ronnie in Ira & Abby (2006)
In this indie comedy, Hamm is Ronnie,
the studly, long-haired (!) ex of Abby (Hamm's long-time love Jennifer Westfeldt). As Abby's husband Ira looks on, there's Hamm hugging Abby in
the restaurant or dancing with her
at a party. In 2006, Hamm was still a relative unknown. But he was still a ladies man and source of jealousy.
Captain Matt Dillon in We Were Soldiers (2002)
As clean-cut
Capt. Dillon, Hamm fights
alongside Mel Gibson in Vietnam. As is often the case in war pics,
Hamm's pretty face promptly disappears in the chaos of battle.
Dust and dirt, camouflage and combat boots take over. Unless we missed something, no dog tags are stolen this time around.
Red-Headed Cop in Early Bird Special (2001)
In this low-budget dark comedy, our hero moves up in the billing order to play a red-headed cop for director Mark Jean (Homecoming). Wait… Red-headed!? Is it not worth seeking out a copy of this rarity this very second just to see such a thing? Is Don pulling a Joan?
Charles in Kissing Jessica Stein (2001)
In this memorable cameo, Hamm plays the handsome, bespectacled blind date to Jessica
Stein (Westfeldt, again). When he gushes that he's
"met someone special," Jessica smiles and blushes even though he's talking about someone else. Or is he? This onscreen mismatch translated to a longstanding love
affair: Hamm and Westfeldt are going on ten years together.
Young Pilot #2 in Space Cowboys (2000)
Ninety-nine percent of the
frames in this movie are dedicated to four veteran pilots
(Eastwood, Jones, Sutherland and Garner). But in the black-and-white
flashback sequences, you might briefly recognize the familiar chisel-jawed face who's
"Young Pilot #2." Yes, that's Jon Hamm in his big screen debut. A
rather fitting introduction, in light of Tina Fey's astute and
flattering observation on 30 Rock: "He looks like a cartoon pilot!"
Mad Men airs Sunday nights @ 10PM | 9C on AMC. Click here for the show's schedule.Read More

A critical talk that pleads for radical introspection and the need to return to the Mecca model in our attitudes and daily affairs. In a charismatic and straight-forward presentation, Dr. Jeffrey Lang moves the Iowa audience by sharing his experience as a Muslim convert over the past 20 years. Based on his new book "Losing My Religion", he looks at the reasons why our children are not committed to Islam and why they even seem to be repulsed from coming to the masjid and getting involved in Islamic activities at all. His reasons may be shocking as he puts the Muslim community on the spot by sharing his findings from an un-scientific yet revealing survey of Muslim youth in this country. Is the media or some "Western conspiracy" really driving our children, or even non-Muslims, away from Islam? Is it possible that whats driving them away is us, the Muslims?! In answering these questions, Dr. Lang seeks in this lecture to wake up those who claim to be Muslim and offers sincere advice to those who are contributing to the "clash" between the surrounding culture and the religious sub-culture that our youth are asked to be a part of. A riveting talk that is a must for every Muslim, especially those living in America.
Other topics discussed: womens roles in the community and the perception of their subjugation, the intellectual divide (rationalism vs. tradition) in our communities, keeping the community unified, concrete ways to make a change within yourself, overcoming lethargic attitudes, and sending our children abroad to study Islam.

Bale's drama: He has missed 40 of Real Madrid's last 60 matches
With the latest fibrillar rupture on Friday, Gareth Bale has now suffered 24 injuries since he signed for Real Madrid in June 2013.
All in all, it's been a recurring nightmare for the Welshman.
It should be noted that most of the injuries have been muscular and caused without prior contact.
However, the worst was undoubtedly the ankle injury that forced him into the operating room last season and ruined his entire championship.
Because of that dislocation, he lost 17 games in 2016/17, the worst of his career.
In addition to that, another 10 matches were missed due to muscular problems.
In 2015/16, Bale missed 19 games, all due to muscle problems; in 13/14, another 15 matches.
During the current campaign, he's not taken part in nine games to this point and in total has missed 79 official games for the club.
As for the most vulnerable areas, the soleus, the left thigh and the calf are his achilles heel.
The big games
The less frequent ones have been an inguinal distension (one match out), flu (two games), a break in the right side (five matches), a blow to the thumb (one match), and a break in the adductor muscle.
Last season Bale was a substitute in the Cardiff final and missed the final game of the League season.
He was a stellar performer in the other two Champions League finals and also the Copa del Rey final against Barcelona, however, everything indicates that he will not reach the next important event, the Club World Cup, which he also couldn't play last year due to injury.
