My "Twinkle" so far ....
I was fascinated by it when I saw it on the Garden Import list for Spring.
I have had lots clematis, but never a non climbing one .. or with such a sweet appearance.
Judgement on appearance is such an individual "take' especially with gardeners.
We either .. love .. hate ... or can be truly undecided for some length of time.
Twinkle made me love it immediately ... and although I don't see that little touch of blue that should be at the base of the flower head .. I still think it is very pretty ...
The problem now ? ... is to find the perfect spot for it !
This is TWINKLE
Yes ... some rusty "Pot Pixies" are acting as supports for the moment.
I couldn't kick them to the curb while they were trying to do a job for me ? wink wink
Loaded with buds ... which is a great characteristic in its first year.
The white is so clean and pure .. another wonderful point to show itself off when mixed with other plants in the garden ... when I finally get this little guy in the perfect place.
And now for something completely different ...
I would love to have an ID on this fuzzy wuzzy blondie caterpillar .. it came with Little Lime hydrangea from the garden center.
I gingerly picked it off (yes .. with gloves on ..eeekk!) and it ran away from home after I just turned around to adjust my camera.
I guess it was just too shy to stay ?
Any idea of what it is supposed to grow up to be ?
I have never seen a perfectly blond one like this before so my curiosity is peeked !

Hi Joy. So that is what a clematis bush look like. It is very pretty. I have saw them on the blogs but have never tried to grow one. Have a wonderful week.

Twinkle, twinkle little star..... you knew this would come out sooner than later. I adore the non climbing, herbaceous Clematis and would guess that this is a C. integrifolia[?]cultivar? It is divine. My C.integrifolias do well in partial shade and because they do not have the tendrils of other members of the genus, something to clamor up or through is key to being able to appreciate their beauty. I was thinking to myself, what if Joy added Forthergilla 'Blue Mist' a delightful shrub with white bottlebrush flowers in Spring and blue grey foliage at the same time as this charmer would bloom! Just an idea!

Interestingly, I had posted a photo of an albino earwig and here's your albino wooly-bear!
I love your albino clemmie. I'll have to keep my eyes open for this gem. I have the same problem though, where to put it. :)

Joy, your clematis is stunning!!! I have never seen one with so many gorgeous features - white (love!), beautiful leaves, stunning buds and a thick, rich look to the overall plant-- like a gardenia, but with a different shape. Great choice! Can't wait to see how you place your new beauty. :):)

OMG, it is the ghost caterpillar a rare find indeed!!! They are normally seen in late October. They are mostly seen near black cats and bats. Got cha! I have no idea what this caterpillar is called but I know how you love Halloween so had to poke ya.. Hee hee... I did some research on the internet and could not find out the name either. Maybe an albino cat. Hum, wonder if that is possible? Some one had a pic of a white cat and called it a Woolly Bear but after a search on that did not show me one in pure white, I find myself stumped on this one…. Let me know if you find the answer to this mystery. It sure is a pretty little thing….

I have never seen a clematis that was not vining. I will have to see if it is available in my area.

Hello Lona girl .. there are quite a few different clematis bush types but this is my first one , so I am a nervous mom about it ? LOL
This week has blown right by .. and still no rain .. ugh ! have a good one in any case girl : )
Sweetie .. I just knew you would be the one to start that up ! WiseA**!!
Yes it is and yes it is LOL
I just planted it in the garden today and now I am nervous about how it will do .. but I had to take the training wheels off of it some time right ? How funny you mention a forthergilla .. I have been thinking about one for a few years .. haven't seen it locally but actually on the site of Garden Import where I got this clematis .. but not Blue Mist (I have to look that one up)I love blue green foliage so it sounds like a beauty!
Gracie I have to get over to your place and see what you have been posting girl !! Yup .. where to put things has become a major brain fart for me now ;-) hehe
Ms S girl thank you very much : )
It does seem to have all the perfect points we look for doesn't it ? I just hope it does well with keeping company in the rose bed .. sometimes roses can be snobbish?LOL
Skeeter you are SO NAUGHTY girl !!!
I think it is 111 days until Halloween (I have to check my count down thingy) I think the answer is that it is a blonde wooly bear .. this is the first one I have seen though ! and it disappeared on me when I turned around with the camera just for a few seconds .. POOF ! vanished like it had a spell on it !!!! hehehehehe
Eileen girl there are actually a few varieties of "bush" clematis .. but this one was offered by one of my Canadian mail order plant companies so my curiosity over came me and I had to try it out : )

Yesterday I had the opportunity to chat with Melissa Peterman about the second season on Bet On Your Baby of which she is the host. While I had her on the phone we also talked about her role as Barbra Jean (Reba) and Bonnie (Baby Daddy).
I loved chatting with Melissa, she was super sweet and so down to earth (she even referred to me by name and followed me back on Twitter), I wish we could have met in person. Maybe one day…
Here's what Melissa Peterman had to say about Bet On Your Baby, Reba, Baby Daddy and more…
Tell us about the upcoming second season of Bet On Your Baby
We're back for season 2 and we took all the things you love about season one and kind of expanded on it. We have more kid time which I enjoy because they are the stars of the show and more time to get to know the families as well and we changed up the end game which I really like. I think it is more fun and a little bit more nail biting and just a lot more fun, great families and we get to give away a ton of money for college. So, all good stuff.
Why should families tune into the show?
Because I really think there's something for everyone. Kids love to see kids on TV…I love kids being able to see someone they identify with on TV…and the adults love it as well because who doesn't want to watch a cute kid and see a family pull together, have fun and win money.
I used to remember that Saturday night was a big family night and TV night. Nowadays people are out or they are not there…ever since I had a kid I am home on Saturdays. So, I like the idea of sort of bringing a family show back to Saturday night TV. I do think it is a great family show…its a feel good show.
Why do you enjoy hosting Bet On Your Baby?
You can't be grumpy on a set where there is 20 kids around, no one can have a bad day
What are your favorite parts of taping Bet On Your Baby?
I love the moments where we have baby talk…where we sort of roll camera with me and one of the kids from the show. That's always spectacular because when your 3 or 4 there's no editor, they all just say whatever they want and its usually hilarious. We have some fun moments with improv.
I also love watching the parents…seeing how they decide who's going to play with the kids and play the game and who's going to make the bet. That's always an interesting dynamic. You get a little glimpse as to how they work as a family. I love it when they win big.
What's the most challenging thing for you while taping?
I'm not in charge of it but I think cleaning up the baby green room. I think our green room is the most trashed Green Room in Hollywood. Forget being back stage at a rock concert, our green room is toys and snacks.
I'd have to say making sure that the parents walk away feeling like they've had a great time. That this is just about fun and the icing on the cake is the money. nobody walks away empty-handed.
Out of all of the acting roles you have had, which has been your favorite?
Each job you take something away different from it.
On her role as Barbra Jean on Reba
Barbra Jean was the first serious regular job I had on Reba. I had six seasons on that show and that cast is still my family and my friends, so for me as the first job experience on a sitcom and to have Reba be the leader of it all was the greatest gift I got. I had 6 years of working with one of the most gracious ladies in Hollywood and I learned a lot from her
I love Barbra Jean and I love it when people still call me Barbra Jean. When people ask me if I get mad at that I'm like "No", I hope someone calls me that in the nursing home.
On her role as Bonnie on Baby Daddy
I'm loving Bonnie right now. She's very different but we have some of the same qualities.
You know you're happy when you love the role that you're in right now. If I didn't enjoy something that means I'm not in the right place. So, I've been super lucky many times.
You're an Actress, comedienne & host – which do you enjoy doing the most and why?
That's hard. I like them all for different reasons and I think they each make me better at the other job.
When you do stand up, you're sort of on your own and you have to be quick on your feet and writing which helps me as a host. Being in the moment and not trying to plan ahead and writing what's going to happen.
I think acting is a first love for me. I went to school and have my theater degree. I just so love playing a character. When you're a host you are your self and when you're doing stand-up you are a version of yourself so what I like about acting is that its not me and you get a little more freedom…acting makes me a better host because of just being in front of an audience.
Stand up, frankly, is the one that scares me the most…it terrifies me but I still love it and I love to do it…it is far more frightening than anything else.
How do you balance a thriving career and being a mom?
I'm very lucky that I have my husband that stays at home…I can have a schedule that is really busy for a little while and then I have a ton of time off. Since it is so sparatic we wanted somebody to stay home. No matter how busy I am there is someone her….Then when I have a chunk of time off, we are both here. So, that makes it a lot easier. I am blessed to have that.

Here is the text from the local CBS TV News story that was mysteriously taken down only hours after being aired.
Advocacy group and Town of Palm Beach at odds over dredging project
Story by Melissa Howell/CBS12
PALM BEACH (CBS12) — A local advocacy group is pushing back against a dredging project in Palm Beach but officials aren't saying they've done anything wrong.
The Phipps Ocean Park Beach Renourishment project began on Friday. On Sunday, Ed Tichenor with the Palm Beach County Reef Rescue says silt, a thin grain of sand, was posing some serious threats to the coral reef.
"We found the silt level in the water high above the standard that's required by the permit that the state issues so they were violating the permit," says Tichenor.
The standard NTU for how much Silt, or turbidity, is allowed for the project is 29 but Reef Rescue found readings as high as 116.
"If the project generates too much silt, it could smother the coral," says Tichenor.
But David Olin, an environmental consultant for the town of Palm Beach, says they too did testing and took action.
"We saw that the water quality was elevated. We took samples and found that they exceeded the permit standards. At that point, we notified the engineer and the dredge and we shut them down," says Olin.
The coastal coordinator for the town of Palm Beach says this means no permits were violated and high numbers aren't unusual at the start of a project. But Reef Rescue is pushing for a closer eye on the project from the state as it moves forward.
Rob Weber is the coastal coordinator for Palm Beach and says "we have our monitors that do all this work for us to ensure that the project doesn't cause that harm that proven."
Weber says the cost to stop dredging is already figured into the $16.9 million budget for the project. Planners say the number one priority is the environment.
The project will take a little over two months to complete and the town says it will continue to monitor the levels of silt to ensure they are not in violation of any permits.

How I Got Here Again and Again; Speak of Beasts, Speak of Love, Speak of Nothing
How I Got Here Again and Again
In the evening,
When the air begins
To dig its own small grave,
I dream a hundred monks,
Like a sleepless river,
Carry the jaws of horses
Across the long dark
Field of cotton
Behind my eyes.
Their robes stretch over
The horizon like
A string tied
To a tooth, the other
End, a doorknob.
As they pass,
Moon-sung birds
Rise like countries
Burnt away from
The map of my childhood.
Their sandals are caked
With the ash of every
Tree I've scorched with
My tongue. Out of sight,
They bring the bones
To the earth and scoop
Open its locked jaws.
Speak of Beasts, Speak of Love, Speak of Nothing
At the Mississippi river, I resurrect my tongue:
Howls rise from the earth.
Boys steal crosses from flood-stained tombs,
Toss them into the water, laughing.
Each splash draws blood from the clouds.
A dark ship passes, white horses on deck.
Below: wine smuggled in caskets.
The children see me, line up, lean back their heads.
Jazz funerals march through their veins.
When I say, bury your heart behind a star.
In my palms, I cup the ashes of a pistol.

Year 6 Exhibition
At our Secondary School, we offer two separate programmes:
In August 2016, the BBS's Secondary School was granted the status of a 'genehmigte Ersatzschule' from the Berlin Senat. Secondary students attending the Ersatzschule follow the local Berlin curriculum framework (Berliner Rahmenlehrplan) blended with an international curriculum that incorporates an inquiry based pedagogy and more traditional approaches. This means that approx. 50% of the education we provide is taught in German. Currently, this affects Years 7-10.
We are gradually phasing in bilingual instruction for all our classes from Year 2 up to the end of Year 11. At Secondary School, we began in 2016-17 with Year 8. With every school year, bilingual teaching will increase by one year group until the school year 2020-21, when the bilingual programme will be available for all our students in all year groups.
Secondary students attending the Ersatzschule receive History and Ethics as well as two out of a total of six Mathematics lesson per week in German. Our P.E lessons are taught bilingually through the medium of both English and German. At Secondary School, all students, irrespective of their programme, receive report cards; students attending the Ersatzschule (bilingual programme), additionally, receive German grade cards including German numerical grades.
Beginning in 2018-19, Year 10 students are prepared for their German MSA (Mittlerer Schulabschluss; i.e. German intermediate school-leaving qualification) and as well as their IGCSE examinations. Students in the Ersatzschule will sit both the MSA and IGCSE exams in Year 11 at around the same time.
At BBS, we do not offer the Abitur as a school-leaving qualification, but only the International Baccalaureate. Please see https://berlinbritishschool.de/de/ibdp/ for further information on the IB Diploma Programme.

The KBCA has been hearing concerns from Families with young children about the lack of Children's Swim Programs offered at the Beaverbrook Outdoor Pool behind the Beaverbrook Mall.
The KBCA has had discussions with the Directory for the Beaverbrook Pool who works out of the Richcraft Recreation Centre on Innovation Drive.
We are working together to see what the actual demand is for Children's Swim Programs for the Summer of 2016 and beyond.
The reality is that enrollment at the Beaverbrook pool has been dropping year over year and the City of Ottawa cannot afford to offer Programs without sufficient enrollment. In other words, they need a commitment before they hire instructors for the Summer.
For more information see the following: The Future of Beaverbrook Pool Swimming Lessons
Feedback is needed no later than May 31, 2016 to:

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) reduces the corporate income tax rates of C corporations to 21 percent. The TCJA further reduces the C corporation income arising from tax-favored foreign income by means of two deductions:
- The Foreign-Derived Intangible Income (FDII) deduction equals 37.5 percent of FDII and results in an effective C corporation tax rate of 13.125 percent of FDII.
- The Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (GILTI) deduction equals 50 percent of GILTI and results in an effective C corporation rate of 10.5 percent of GILTI.

On Wednesday, Foxconn CEO Terry Gou publicly acknowledged the difficulties Foxconn is facing in producing the tremendous quantities required for Apple's latest iPhone.
"It's not easy to make the iPhones. We are falling short of meeting the huge demand," Gou told reporters following a business forum, according to a Reuters report.
Apple saw blockbuster iPhone sales this past quarter with the introduction of the iPhone 5, and that demand is likely to continue through the holiday season, bolstered by the fastest iPhone rollout schedule to date. "We have a feature-rich new industrial design available to a larger audience of customers because of the number of carriers," Forrester analyst Charles Golvin told Wired. "That would lead me to believe that there's meaningfully higher demand than the iPhone 4 or 4S."
There are also manufacturing challenges with producing the phone itself.
"The issues with the new iPhone stem from the fact it is thinner than prior versions, and any time you reduce the thickness you've got much less room to work with and you increase the likelihood for manufacturing error," IHS senior principal analyst Tom Dinges told Wired via e-mail. "The manufacturing process for the iPhone is still relatively high on labor as opposed to automation, which also increases the likelihood for manufacturing issues when you shrink the size of the device."
One of the bigger problems plaguing the new iPhone is its aluminum rear plate, which is prone to chips and scratches because aluminum is a softer metal. Also of note: The iPhone 5 is the first iPhone to have the touch panel integrated with the display components (referred to as an in-cell display). Produced solely by LG Display to start with, this new Retina Display panel has definitely been a bottleneck for iPhone production.
"When you combine the issues with meeting the quality standards with a very strong global rollout it becomes a real challenge for the manufacturing partners to keep up," Dinges said.

NEW HAVEN - The Ansonia Police Department is one of the latest local law enforcement agencies dealing with social media posts featuring clowns threatening violence at schools.
The department released the following statement:
"The Ansonia Police Department is aware of the social media postings threatening violence at the Ansonia schools tomorrow, 10/5/16. While we do not believe the threats to be credible we are investigating and will have increased police presence at all schools tomorrow. We ask anyone with specific information regarding the person or persons responsible for the postings to contact the Ansonia Police Department at 203-735-1885."
The Cheshire Police Department is also investigating social media threats of the creepy clown at schools and said residents can expect an increased police presence at schools in that community.
The Simsbury Police Department released thee following statement on their Facebook page Tuesday night:
Many schools in communities across the state and country are experiencing threats through social media involving clowns. The social media posts refer to a serial killer clown who killed children in the 1960s. Naugatuck, New Haven and Simsbury are a few of the communities that have been mentioned. Social media posts surfaced today about clowns arriving at the Simsbury High School on Wednesday. The Police Department and Public Schools are aware of the posts. Although the threats are not considered credible, the posts are taken very seriously and will be investigated thoroughly by the Police Department. There will be an increase in police presence at the schools and heightened awareness by police and school personnel. If you have any information about the posts, please contact Simsbury Police Detectives at (860) 658-3145.
And, Salvatore F. Menzo, superintendent of Wallingford Public Schools sent a letter to parents on Tuesday night:
It has come to our attention that an Instagram message was sent stating, "Lyman Hall better watch out" from newhaven.clown. We were in immediate contact with the Wallingford Chief of Police. As a result, there will be a police presence at Lyman Hall High School tomorrow. Please be assured that we take the safety and security of our students and staff very seriously. We will continue to monitor the situation and work collaboratively with the local authorities. We appreciate your support.
Wallingford Police said there was chatter on Instagram but no direct threat made. Lyman Hall was mentioned and police will have a presence to put everyone's mind at ease.
The proliferation of creepy clown-related social media posts, and unsubstantiated sightings, also has officials in New Haven concerned.
Tuesday afternoon, outgoing Superintendent of Schools Garth Harries, and Officer David Hartman of the New Haven Police Department, addressed two Instagram posts over the weekend threatening New Haven schools.
"As we've looked at this situation and became aware of it yesterday morning, our sense is there is no actual credible threat of violence," said Harries.
One of the two Instagram posts, from a person using the screen name New Haven Clown, wrote, "If you go to Career (high school), watch out." Another stated "Then Hillhouse, Cross, Eli Whitney, Co-Op, Sound. You really think it's fake? Wait and see."
"If I say, everybody at, you know, and I list eight high schools in New Haven, better watch out, that's not a threat. It just isn't," Harries said.
New Haven police are still investigating and have not ruled out making any arrests.
Harries says there was an incident at one of the middle schools Tuesday, when students were discovered with a clown mask outside of the school.
"The administrator went out. They (students) didn't run away. They were horsing around. They confiscated the mask, contacted the parent, not a big deal. But, you know, it's a reflection of what this kind of thing turns into," Harries said.
Police and school officials in Naugatuck are also dealing with social media posts mentioning schools.
The Naugatuck Police Department said they arrested two juvenile females under the age of 14, one living in Naugatuck and the other from Stratford, in regard to the "creepy clown" social media postings that were made Monday.
Both were charged with disorderly conduct and conspiracy to commit disorderly conduct.
Police said the arrests stem from a social media profile the girls created by the name of "Jackson the Clown" with a posting of "Will be in Naugatuck / Be careful / Lock your doors / which school wanna go first?"
Police said the posts were made with various photos of clowns attached. The posts made by the teens yesterday led in part to a decision to place police officers at each Naugatuck school today as a precaution and added safety measure.
Colleges are not immune to this kind of clowning around, either.
"I was laying in bed and one of my roommates texted me and was like 'hey I'm stuck in class we can't leave because there is supposedly a clown on campus ," said Quinnipiac Freshman Eric DeFrancesco.
These claims, Monday night, were proven untrue at both UConn and Quinnipiac University .
"We started seeing a number of social media posts about there being a lock-down in the library, there being a lock-down in our Ccenter for Communications and Engineering," said John Morgan, a Quinnipiac spokesperson.
There was never a lock-down on either campus.
Why are clown threats going viral? One Quinnipiac professor said it is fueled by a demographic that's grown up with fear, due, in part, to terrorism.
"So anything that hints at danger is going to be transmitted at the speed of light across social media," said Rich Hanley, an associate professor of journalism at Quinnipiac.
Another professor believes that clowns creep some out so much because they tap into a collective feeling of uneasiness.
"And, I think it sort of builds upon images that we see in popular culture over the years," said Lauren Sardi, an associate professor of sociology at Quinnipiac.

Saliva spray is a type of spray used to help stimulate saliva production in people who suffer from dry mouth. This condition can make it difficult for a person to swallow or even speak, and it can have a number of causes. Most of these sprays contain safe, natural ingredients like sweeteners, herbs, and oils. Doctors usually recommend using these sprays before meals, or any other time that the symptoms of dry mouth become uncomfortable.
Dry mouth is a common medical condition characterized by very little saliva. This occurs when a person's salivary glands do not produce an adequate amount of saliva. Without saliva, a person will often have problems swallowing and speaking. Saliva also acts as a barrier and lubricant for the tissues in the mouth.
Medications and underlying illnesses are generally the most common causes of dry mouth. Patients who take anti-depressants or diuretics, for instance, are typically more likely to suffer from dry mouth. Diabetics, who are prone to dehydration, may also suffer from dry mouth.
One of the most popular treatments for dry mouth is saliva spray. When saliva spray is sprayed into the mouth, it wets the inside of the mouth, providing instant relief from dry mouth. It also helps coat the membranes in the mouth, which can make it easier to swallow and speak. This type of spray may also help stimulate the production of saliva, and some saliva spray can even help minimize bad breath.
Most saliva sprays contain sweeteners, such as glycerin. They also usually contain natural plant compounds, particularly cellulose. A saliva spray might also contain herbs that may help stimulate the production of saliva, such as peppermint and clove.
Doctors generally agree that using a saliva spray is safe. Most people who use these types of artificial saliva products usually experience no side effects or adverse reactions. Individuals who experience allergic reactions to these sprays, like swelling or hives, should stop using these products immediately.
To use a saliva spray, a person simply sprays the liquid into his mouth. One or two squirts of this product is usually the recommended dose. This should be done before every meal and snack. Spraying this liquid in the mouth before bed can also help prevent dry mouth in the morning. A person can also use this spray any other time the symptoms of dry mouth become uncomfortable.

@SteamLouis -- I'm using a saliva spray that I am very happy with. It's not fancy, it's basically just made of water, yerba santa herb and natural lemon flavor. This is the closest thing I've found to real saliva and makes a huge difference. I usually use it at night as my dry throat and mouth seem to worsen later in the day. Before, I was trying to fight dry mouth by sipping on water. It helped but made me go to the bathroom multiple times at night. Using the saliva spray has reduced my need for water.
Post 2
@turquoise-- For the most part, they are the same. But I think that there are also prescription saliva sprays that are medicated and actually help saliva production. Artificial saliva spray is meant to replace saliva but might not encourage natural saliva production. It's a good idea to read up on the various saliva sprays on the market to learn more about what each does.
I've been searching for a good saliva spray for a long time as I also suffer from chronic dry mouth. I have tried about four different sprays but none of them worked well. Either the effects were very short lasting, requiring frequent application, or the sprays left a sticky and unpleasant taste in the mouth.
Post 1
So is saliva spray same as artificial saliva?
I have chronic dry mouth due to diabetes and I'm thinking about trying saliva spray. Does anyone here use one? Does it really work?
One of our editors will review your suggestion and make changes if warranted. Note that depending on the number of suggestions we receive, this can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days. Thank you for helping to improve wiseGEEK!

One of the last hats to make for the schools' project is a straw hat for a farm labourer. We picked up a bundle of plaited straw at the reenactment fair last year, but it's taken a while to work out what to do as it didn't come with instructions, leading to quite a lot of guess work.
The straw was soaked in water first for a short while, before the end was curled around and sewn together. The straw was sewn in a spiral, flattening along the way, occasionally pausing to shape it over a mould – a bowl of a suitable size and shape. The brim was a continuation of the crown. Stones were used as weights to flatten it while it dried.
Over 20 metres of linen thread was used to sew it together and there's still enough straw left to make probably another two hats.
Our skilled embroiderer and lace maker have been at it again. They have, barring a few sequins, finished the embroidered gloves using the pattern in Seventeenth Century Women's dress patterns book 1. They look amazing!
Another volunteer is making a headdress which includes a hair net with gold thread. After several trials of different types the final net is based on instructions for a parrot net. Still need to get a photo of it, but it looks very impressive.
Our next costume day is on Monday 25 May – it's not just for kids, and has proved very popular with adults. Photos from the last event, on 4 May, have just gone on to the photo gallery.

"I can't wait to meet #4" He is so cute!!
I write a lot about #4 because, well I figure that by the time he's old enough to read my blog the world would have moved on from blogging to another oddly-named fetish, yooking- or some other term- unintelligibly sounding, yet life changing on a global scale. It's not like we knew twittering would ever become a verb used by humans.
I feel sorry for those who have expressed innocent interest in wanting to meet #4. Like Kemi- formerly justjoxy's friend but now mine. She kindly invited us to her daughter's birthday party and ended her invitation with; "I can't wait to meet #4".
Let this be a quiet, but sound warning to all who wish to meet him.
1) He would not 'greet' properly. It's not like I haven't tried with him. Now he says "Good afternoon, evening" but he doesn't look up when he does. Unlike Tolu's boys. Those boys can greeeet!!!
2) He hates being woken up every morning. He rants and raves about how his day has been 'ruined' by the one who woke him up. " You have ruined my day". "Now my day is spoiled". One day I picked him up after school and he asked; "anything fun after school today mum?" He looked so hopeful, his deer-like eyes staring expectantly at my hardened ones. I replied with a steeliness that matched my eyes; "no, we're going home". His response? Flaps arms about in frustration and says; "you ruined my day in the morning, in the middle it was fine, and now you ruined it again at the end". I had to call a friend to share this episode, it was too much for me to handle on my own
3) He believes blood comes from the devil. Because it hurts when he bleeds. Our most recent conversation on blood went something like this;
"What happens to Batman's blood when he gets cut with the silver thing and he doesn't bleed? Mum, why did God make blood then? How do you make silver? Like batman's silver? How do you make gold? I know, you make lellow (yellow) dark and it becomes gold". As you can see it wasn't a conversation as such, I could barely get a word in. Okay truth be told, I had no answers for the child.
4) He is incredibly good with words. A little wordsmyth he is. He makes up words too like putted. "I putted it in the kitchen". And inexpection. All my friends play football, inexpection of George. He likes Tennis".
5) He wants another brother. Three is apparently not enough and his mother is clearly a child making machine. A Factory.
6) He is irresistibly cute and knows it. Be prepared to be extra affectionate with him. Bear in mind that giving affection to him will not result in you getting any back- in fact you wont even get an acknowledgement. To be completely honest your affectionate moves will be met with deep frowning and resistance. Ignore it all. That's just how the child chooses to show love.
7) He loves his teacher. This one is quite annoying- and I can feel myself getting rather annoyed as I type this. He honours his teacher's words above mine. If I tell him to do his homework on lined paper for instance, my request will be met with first an incredulous glance, then a condescending look as he shakes his big head stating the words; "that's not how you do it mama, my teacher said…"
I was going to carry on but don't want to ruin any chances of actual adoption of this child. Unlike #3 who has so won the hearts of the Family *Smith, they literally beg to take him home constantly. Like here. We have been known to forget him with them and I am now certain the reason they bought a larger car was for #3. And that one knows how to charm the socks off them. When we pick him up he walks out with words of praise bathing him; "He is incredibly polite, he is so sweet". "He loves the baby". "The dogs just love him".
Today is going to be a good day, I can just feel it. I might even come back and add another post that's been brewing!
Have a lovely Sunday and thank you for reading.
May I shamelessly beg that you add a comment in the box below? It helps me to breathe easy 🙂

Rangers fans, you're not welcome in Jersey.
That's the message the Devils are sending to New York Rangers fans.
The Devils, who are down 0-1 in Eastern Conference Finals, have launched an online campaign to try and convince New Jersey fans not to sell their tickets on secondary markets to Rangers fans.
Game 2 of the series is scheduled for tomorrow night, but games three and four will be held in Newark on Saturday and Monday, at the Prudential Center, nicknamed by locals "The Rock."
The Devils say they want to prevent Rangers fans from infiltrating The Rock, filling the New Jersey arena with their signature blue for the upcoming games.
According to reports, on the Devils website the team even directed fans how to sell their tickets only to other Devils fans, and #noblue is trending on Twitter. Rangers fans have responded with #beyondpitiful to mock the marketing ploy.
Here's what the Devils are advising their fans to do:
1. If you own seats and have to sell for any of the home games because of conflicts, do NOT list your seats on the secondary market. Blogs such as Fire and Ice, In Lou We Trust, and HFBoards provide you with outlets to speak directly with other Devils fans who are looking for seats. This will ensure you are selling ONLY to other Devils fans.
"You can ask for pictures or meet them to deliver tickets, to ensure where their loyalty lies," the Devils write. Yes, it's gotten that serious, folks.
2. If you are unsure about conversing on Devils blogs to sell your tickets, you can call the Devils Fan Experience Team line at 855-DEV-ARMY, and as a service they will help you sell your seats you can't use, to other Devils fans.
The team is also (not surprisingly) encouraging Devils fans to buy up all the tickets they can for this weekend's games:
3. If you do not own seats already, visit secondary market ticket sales websites including Ticket Exchange to purchase your tickets immediately. Thousands of seats still remain for both Rangers home games at The Garden. Therefore, there is a window right NOW, for Devils fans to swallow up all the remaining tickets for the upcoming Devils home games at the Rock. Seize that opportunity now while it is still available.
It appears the link has now been taken down by the Devils — perhaps after they were mocked for the home-team marketing strategy.

If you drive to work, you will reach your office. You may have seen many junctions, you can turn left, turn right or go straight, you can stop for breakfast or go to post office and many other choices. But, what makes you ending up in office?
Because you know where you are going. And you know it right from the moment you step into your car.
Setting goal, in this case, fitness goal is important. It is the first thing you should do before you commit any expensive gym membership or buying any equipments.
Having a fitness goal helps you to stay focus. When you focus in achieving a specific goal, your mind subconsciously work and begin to think of different ways to help to achieve the goal. You will prioritize your time and tasks so that you can make it. I have seen people waking up as early as 6 AM to jog. Why? Because they have set the goal and they are exercising while others are still snoring on beds.
With fitness goals, you will spend time in finding out how to do certain workouts. You read, you try and you ask. You will be more willing to listen and to learn from others. You will not spend time flirting or chit chatting for hours in gym.
How To Make A Goal?
- Make your goal as specific as possible with a time line. Be precise. Do not draft it based on vague idea with generalization words like "I want to be healthy" or "I want to be fit". You need to zoom in to have more powerful statement like this, "I want to have 6 packs by end of 9 months. I will first join a gym and go working out at least 3 times a week. I will not eat fast food as my lunch anymore."
- State your goal statement in positive tone. "I want to do pull up for 8 repetitions by end of 4 months" Don't say things like "I don't want just to do lat pull down with the machine. I hope I can do pull up." Comparing the two, the former has more energy with confidence tone.
- Be realistic. Make your goals achievable. Do not set the par too high. Set your own goal and not let others do it for you. Why? Because if you let others set the goals for you, they may set unrealistic goals beyond your ambitions or your capability.
- Set few small achievable goals. With smaller targets, you will feel proud of reaching small milestones. Easier for you. If a goal is too huge, it can seem that you are not making progress towards it. Keeping goals small and incremental gives more opportunities for reward.
- Remember the big picture. While you are working hard achieving your smaller goals, do not lose the big picture. For instance, your end goal is to lose 20 pounds after 3 months and therefore you want to exercise 3 times a week, if you somehow unable to make it to gym for entire week, do not just give up your goal. Sometimes you are sick, you are busy or other unforeseen things take place. Do not give up because of little obstacles. Find a solution. Remember the big picture and keep going.
- Write down your fitness goals. Yes, write them on paper. Put it in prominent place so that you read it often. It can be on fridge with goal like "I want to lose 20 pounds within 3 months". Once you see those words, you may end up not opening the fridge and eating the ice cream inside. If you have to put it on your car dashboard, your bed or even toilet to make you remember the goal, do it.
- Find your motivation. Goal setting and finding motivation are actually two different things, though they may be related. You must know why you want the goal. What does it mean to you? The more you want it, the more persistent you will be. Never, ever forget about the motivation. It is motivation that either make or break your goal.
Once You Achieve Your Fitness Goal, What Is Next?
Well done and congratulations! Reward yourself for the achievement. If possible, after you lose 20 pounds, do not spoil yourself with one fast food meal each day for the entire month. Rewarding yourself appropriately help build your self-confidence.
After you attained your goal, you can set your next goal, probably harder one this time.
On the other hand, even if you fail to meet your goal within the time line, as long as you learn from it, it is fine. Find out why you cannot do it. Adjust your goal, change your approach, put more effort and give it another attempt.
Some Fitness Goal Examples
Scratching your head thinking what goal you want to have? Here are some examples:
- I want to bench press my bodyweight by end of year 2009.
- I want to run a Triathlon by third quarter of this year.
- I want to work out consistently 4 days a week for the next 3 months.
- I want to do one hand push up for at least 3 times before I celebrate my 28th birthday.
- I want to run 5 km under 45 minutes after 2 months.
- I want to complete all poses in yoga classes in my 20th class.
- I want to swim 5 laps non-stop by end of June.
- I want to master all the steps in Body Steps before Les Mills launches the new release.
- I want to reduce my body fat from 30% to 25% when I renew my gym membership.
- I want to do 12 chin ups in a row before I finish my degree.
- I want to have washboard like abs by end of this year.
Goal setting is a powerful process. I do it because it build my self confidence. How about you, what is your fitness goal? I would be interested to know. Leave it at the comment down here.

Cathmandu is Still Nepal (Satis Shroff)
There were two young men,
Brothers who left their homes
In the foothills of the Eastern Himalayas.
The older one, for his father had barked at him,
"Go to Nepal and never come home again."
The younger couldn't bear the beatings
At the hands of his old man.
The older brother sobbed,
Stifled his sorrow and anger
For Nepal was in fact Kathmandu,
With its colleges, universities, Education Ministry,
Exquisite temples, extravagant Rana-palaces,
Golden pagodas.
With its share of hippies, hashish, tourists,
Rising prices and expensive rooms to rent.
The younger brother went to Dharan,
Enlisted in the British Army depot
To become a Gurkha,
A soldier in King Edwards Own Gurkha Rifles.
He came home the day he became a recruit,
With a bald head, as though his father had died.
He looked forward to the parades and hardships
That went under the guise of physical exercises.
He thought of stern, merciless sergeants and corporals
Of soccer games and regimental drills
A young man's thrill of war-films.
Scotch and Gurkha-rum evenings.
He'd heard it all from the Gurkhas,
Who'd returned in the Dasain festivals.
There was Kunjo Lama his maternal cousin,
Who boasted of his judo-prowess,
Showed photos of his British gal,
A pale blonde from Chichester
In an English living-room.
It was a glorious sunset,
The clouds blazing in scarlet and orange hues,
As the young man, riding on the back of a lorry,
Sacks full of rice and salt,
Stared at the Siwaliks and Mahabharat mountains
Dwindling behind him.
As the glorious scarlet sun set in the Himalayas,
The shadows grew longer in the vales.
The young man saw the golden moon,
Shining from a cloudy sky.
The same moon he'd seen on a poster
In his uncle's kitchen,
As he ate cross-legged,
His dal-bhat-shikar after the hand-washing ritual.
Was the moon a metaphor?
Was it his fate?
To travel to Kathmandu,
Leaving behind his childhood friends
Relatives in the hills,
Who were struggling for their very existence,
In the foothills of the Kanchenjunga,
Where the peaks were not summits to be scaled,
With or without oxygen,
But the abodes of the Gods and Goddesses.
A realm where bhuts and prets, boksas and boksis,
Demons and dakinis prevailed
Where humans were God-fearing,
Blamed everything on fate,
Not their doings.
Ranas: a ruling class that usurped the throne and ruled for 104 years in Nepal
Gurkhas: Nepali soldiers serving in Nepalese, Indian and British armies
Dal-bhat: Linsen und Reis
Shikar: Fleischgericht
Bhuts: demons
Boksas & boksis: male & female witches

|Satis, I enjoyed reading this contribution with much interest and joy. This poem brings back the memories of Nepal where I lived six years in my life. This is a great story of your courageous Gurkha coming back to Kathmandu, Nepal, seeing before his eyes the rich culture, religion and history of his own country. I would be very happy to read more of your poems with the context of the beautiful Hindu Kingdom of Nepal.
|Thelma Zaracostas
|Dear Satis, hope all is going well for you always a treat to read you again and again here on Voices!

Metallica to release first album in eight years
Eavis: Metallica 'played like their lives depended on it'
Glastonbury organiser Michael Eavis has hailed this year's festival as a "great success," saying last night's headliners, Metallica, had played "like their lives depended on it".
The veteran rockers performed on the Pyramid stage last night, despite calls to ban the group after it emerged front man James Hetfield will narrate a TV series about hunting bears.
The heavy metal act burst into classic hit Creeping Death after showing a short film poking fun at the controversy their slot has created.
Eavis previously defended the decision to have Metallica as one of this year's three headliners on the Pyramid Stage, saying no other band had ever been so "keen" to play.
- ITV Report
Calls to ban Metallica from Glasto over hunting show
Metallica confirmed as Glastonbury headline act
The organisers of Glastonbury have confirmed Metallica as the final headline act of this year's festival. The metal band top the bill alongside Kasabian and Arcade fire and will play the Pyramid stage on the Saturday night of the weekend.
Metallica have sold more than 100 million albums around the world and were formed by James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich in 1981,
Metallica available on Spotify after landmark agreement
Metallica's back catalogue is available on music streaming service Spotify for the first time after a landmark agreement between the two parties.
The company made several announcements at a New York event that included a conversation between Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich and Spotify backer Sean Parker, who also co-founded Napster and and was an early investor in Facebook.
Ulrich said the decision to join Spotify coincided with the fact the band now owns its entire catalogues of music.
Spotify also revealed that it has 20 million active users worldwide and that it has added a Twitter-like functionality that allows users to follow one another as well as celebrities and music producers.

You choose your Projects, sew your Hours, and have Fun for Days! Now that is what I call a Quilt Retreat! Needle in a Haystack Retreats are offered over five times yearly at Flint Oak near Fall River or Tawakoni near Augusta; both in Kansas.
Flint Oak Retreat is Friday through Sunday and has a hotel with private bath and 2 double beds. Breakfast is served at the Lodge. Tawakoni is Thursday through Sunday with lower bunk beds and bathroom shared by 10 people. Covered dish meals provide majority of meals at each retreat. Both locations have large light filled sewing rooms with adequate space for each quilter. Tables, chairs, ironing boards, irons and limited cutting areas are available.
Needle in a Haystack Quilt Retreats fill so quickly we rarely advertise them in our newsletter. Once you have attended a spring, summer or fall retreat, you will be the first ones contacted to attend the next year's retreat. If you see a retreat opening in the Needle newsletter, we suggest you quickly check your calendar & contact our shop by phone. It is important to not overcrowd the sewing room, so the maximum number of quilters are generally 24 at Flint Oak or 19 at Tawakoni.
We offer up to five retreats each year so you can sew with other quilters and receive great door prizes. We ask that you reserve your space with a $50 non-refundable deposit. Once you have paid your deposit, you will receive emails with updates, agenda, remaining balance deadline, what to bring, and directions. Everything you need to know to attend a retreat.
Needle in a Haystack's main objective is sewing, relaxing, being with other quilters, and having fun. Our schedule revolves around when retreat begins and ends plus when we eat. Your sewing schedule depends on how long and when you want to sew.
Demonstration is offered plus lots of door prizes. A Mystery project is another optional offering for some retreats.
We hope this blog has answered many of your retreat questions.

7 Money Moves People Who Make Less Than $60,000/Year Should Make This Year
There's a lot of financial advice out there. But when it comes to managing your money, most things are not one-size-fits-all. Most of these decisions depend on your personal situation — your income, your expenses, your debt.
If you're making less than $60,000 a year, the way you handle your money should be tailored to match that. But this can easily become overwhelming — what goal do you attack first? Budgeting? A savings plan? Debt repayment?
We have money moves you should make if you make less than $60,000 a year.
1. Make Sure You Have a Budget
No matter how much money you make, the first thing you should do is create a solid budget. It's important to first get a clear idea of where your money is going, then create a plan and stick to it.
We get it, though. Budgeting isn't fun. But you don't need to spend hours on end playing with complicated Excel equations. The 50/20/30 budgeting method makes it super easy. It's one of the most straightforward budgeting strategies, and it offers a lot of flexibility.
Here's how it works:
- 50% of your income goes toward essentials.
- 20% goes toward financial goals.
- 30% goes toward personal spending.
Once you get the hang of it, you can tweak the ratios to fit your specific situation. Some people like to put more toward their savings, while others need a bit more for expenses. Take some time to find what works best for you and your goals.
2. Ask This Website to Pay Your Credit Card Bill This Month
If you have credit card debt, you know. The anxiety, the interest rates, the fear you're never going to escape…
And the truth is, your credit card company doesn't really care. It's just getting rich by ripping you off with high interest rates. But a website called Fiona wants to help.
If you owe your credit card companies $100,000 or less, Fiona will match you with a low-interest loan you can use to pay off every single one of your balances.
The benefit? You'll be left with one bill to pay each month. And because personal loans have lower interest rates, you'll get out of debt that much faster. Plus: No credit card payment this month.
Fiona won't make you stand in line or call your bank, either. And if you're worried you won't qualify, it's free to check online. It takes just two minutes, and it could help you pay off your debt years faster.
3. Add up to $225 to Your Bank Account This Month
Now that you've made your monthly budget, you might decide you could use a little extra income. Heck, who couldn't?
You might not want a full-blown side gig, but a website called InboxDollars will pay you up to $225 a month just for watching videos from your computer. One minute you might watch someone bake brownies and the next you might get the latest updates on Kardashian drama.
All you have to do is choose which videos you want to watch and answer a few quick questions about them afterward. Brands pay InboxDollars to get these videos in front of viewers, and it passes a cut onto you.
Unlike other sites, InboxDollars pays you in cash — no points or gift cards — so you can put the money directly toward your monthly expenses. It's already paid its users more than $56 million.
It takes about one minute to sign up, and you'll immediately earn a $5 bonus to get you started.
4. Secure Up to $1 Million in Life Insurance; Rates Start at Just $8/Month
If you make less than $60,000 a year and support a family, life insurance probably isn't at the top of your list. But have you thought about how your family would manage without your paycheck after you're gone?
No matter your income, now's a good time to start planning for the future by looking into a term life insurance policy. And you don't have to have millions of dollars to make this a smart move.
It doesn't have to be difficult, either. With a company called Bestow, your application can take minutes — and, if approved, you could leave your family up to $1 million by spending a low monthly fee.
The peace of mind of knowing your family is taken care of is priceless.
If you're under the age of 54 and want to get a fast life insurance quote without a medical exam or even getting up from the couch, get a free quote from Bestow.
5. Cancel Your Car Insurance
If you want to free up some extra room in your budget, one of the easiest places to start is to cancel your current car insurance.
In most places, it's straight up illegal not to have it, so you've probably accepted that you're going to pay through the nose for it. But you don't have to.
A free website called The Zebra will do the shopping for you — in just two minutes.
All you have to do is enter basic information about your car and driving history, then The Zebra compares prices from more than 100 companies to find you the best price.
The Zebra says it saves its users up to $670 a year.
If you find a policy you like, you can sign up online instantly.
6. Download This App to Get Up to $500 in Free Stock
If you feel like you don't have enough money to start investing, you're not alone. But guess what? You really don't need that much — and you can even get free stocks (worth up to $500!) if you know where to look.
Whether you've got $5, $100 or $800 to spare, you can start investing with Robinhood.
Yeah, you've probably heard of Robinhood. Both investing beginners and pros love it because it doesn't charge commission fees, and you can buy and sell stocks for free — no limits. Plus, it's super easy to use.
What's best? When you download the app and fund your account (it takes no more than a few minutes), Robinhood drops a share of free stock into your account. It's random, though, so that stock could be worth anywhere from $5 to $500 — a nice boost to help you build your investments.
7. Open Another Bank Account
If you don't already have a hands-off savings account — in case of emergencies only — we recommend one. It's a simple, mindless way to squirrel some money away.
Look for a high-yield savings account, so you can earn some interest on your money. Then, update your payroll settings to automatically funnel a percentage of each paycheck into that separate account.
What you don't see, you don't miss!

San Francisco's legendary marinara throwdown is back, with bottomless Napa/Sonoma-sourced vino and Moretti, and, of course, unlimited plates of pasta slathered with 20 plus restos' signature sauces.
Competitors in this year's Boss of the Sauce competition include Zuppa, Palio D'Asti, Tarantino's (last year's champ), and perhaps this year's dark horse, Tony from Tony's Pizza Napoletana, who's betting his red stuff goes just as well on pasta as it does pizza, or your face junior year, when even your Mom told you that you'd never get a date to Cotillion.
The best part is the first 100 people in the door get to be first round judges, which means lots of free pasta from awesome chefs.
Tickets are only $20 and the event kicks off Sunday at noon at the Saints Peter and Paul Event Center, 666 Filbert St., in San Francisco.

Odd news from around the world
Chinese fishermen net a massive rare croaker 'as precious as a panda' and are selling it for £127,000: "A group of Chinese fishermen are expecting to sell a huge croaker they caught for 1.1 million yuan (£127,000). The men were surprised to spot the fish in the waters off Daishan near the city of Zhoushan, east China, on September 18, reported People's Daily Online. Weighing 105 pounds and measuring 5ft 2in in length, the fish was so large it took four to five men to drag it onto the boat. The fish is reportedly a rare type of croaker, known to the local fishermen as the 'Zhoushan big fish'. 'The fish is as rare as panda,' said Chen, relative of one of the trawlermen who caught the fish. Chen added: 'I haven't seen this fish for over 20 years. According to them, the fish's swim bladder is especially valuable as it is believed to be a great source of protein and fat. The organ is frequently used by Chinese medicine practitioners to cure heart and lung ailments.
Time to tie the knot! Chinese bride and groom stuck in traffic jam get married in tunnel so they don't miss the 'auspicious moment': "A couple in China, who were stuck in a traffic jam, held their wedding in a tunnel in order to marry at an auspicious moment. The pair had been planning to marry during a ceremony and banquet which was set to be held at 12pm, considered an auspicious time by the couple, reports Huanqiu, an affiliation with the People's Daily Online. 40 relatives and friends stuck inside the tunnel in Ankang, Shaanxi province attended the wedding. According to reports, the grooms set out at 5am to escort the bride and then the couple drove to the wedding venue. However on their way to the wedding, there was a traffic accident and they became stuck in the tunnel. In some parts of China, especially in the north, people hold the belief that bride and groom who marry for the first time must wed at noon"
Russian marksman plays Beethoven classics (and even Old McDonald Had a Farm) on a pair of pistols : "A talented marksman uses his weapons to make music in this oddly satisfying video. Vitaly Kryuchin, head of the Russian Practical Shooting Federation, performed an Ode to Joy and other songs at a shooting range in Suomussalmi, eastern Finland, on Monday. Using two handguns Mr Kryuchin is seen firing off shots towards an 'instrument' made up of black and white metal plates. When the bullets hit the plates they make up a series of classic tunes. Backed by a small orchestra of two singers, a violinist and a keyboard player, Mr Kryuchin also takes on the nursery rhyme Old MacDonald Had A Farm and the famous Russian song Murka. The violinist wears ear guards to protect from the load gunshot sounds. The video had to be filmed in several shots to give Mr Kryuchin time to reload his weapon and hundreds of bullets were used to make up the final performance.
Chinese students are smitten with 'goddess lecturers': "A number of university teachers have become a talking point in China for their 'extremely good looks'. These female educators, from the Sichuan Normal University in south-west China, have been billed as 'goddesses' after their school uploaded pictures of them to a social media platform. Students at the university are studying harder and sitting in on extra classes because they want to meet these beautiful lectures, according to a teacher from the school. The Sichuan Normal University is located in Chengdu, a city known for its beautiful women. These teachers were selected by their school to represent a generation of young lectures to the public. A teacher surnamed Xu, who is charge of the school's social media publicity, told MailOnline that the teachers were chosen based on their academic achievements, popularity as well as their appearances"
British students have uninhibited beginning to university life: "Thousands of teenage students took to the streets of Portsmouth as they celebrated the start of their university careers during Fresher's Week. Drunken revellers were photographed lying on the pavement, while scantily-clad girls marched through the city centre. Some of the youngsters, living away from home for just a few days can be seen vomiting, screaming and collapsing on the street. One group of girls were spotted wearing a figure-hugging leotard printed with the legend: 'Don't Tell Daddy.' The remains of kebabs were seen smeared all over the side of the pavement as the streets were strewn with rubbish generated during the debaucherous night out. Security guards, bouncers and police tried to keep the teenagers safe after many over-indulged the special offers available during their first week in college.
And don't forget to catch up with all the Strange Justice before you go.

Legit Reviews was recently invited to take a tour of IM Flash Technologies (IMFT) in Lehi, Utah to see how NAND Flash memory is manufactured. Read on as we get into a bunny suit to see how 25nm NAND Flash memory wafers are made and then find out what this shrink means to you as a consumer. That 1TB SSD might not be a dream after all.
Article Title: Inside Intel and Micron's 25nm NAND Fab - IMFTThis shrink is important as the new 25nm process reduces chip count by 50 percent compared to previous process generations, allowing for smaller, yet higher density designs and greater cost efficiencies. This is great news as that means IMFT will be able to get twice as many NAND Flash chips per wafer. Intel said that performance would be comparable to 34nm speeds today, but that endurance and reliability would be improved. Since devices like SSDs can be built using less 'chips' now you can expect to see SSD capacities increasing in the months to come. Micron even mentioned that 1TB 2.5" SSDs will be a possibility in 2010 thanks to the move down to 25nm.

Cyclone was to be a helecopter game released by Ocean Software in the UK back around 1985. It was produced by Tony Pomfret shortly after Hunchback 2 was released.
The first we hear of the game was from Martin Galway in an interview with C64.com, that the Ocean Loader 1 tune was meant to have been used on an unreleased game called Cyclone.
After a bit of digging, we found that Cyclone eventually was released as Helikopter Jagd, but not in the UK! It was only released in parts of europe under the Quelle Soft label. Essentially the same game, but just with a title screen and name change.
We believe that the game's name was changed due to Vortex having brought out a game with the same name, and featuring a helicopter. Maybe Ocean wanted to do a C64 conversion of Vortex's Cyclone as well and decided to hold back?
We are not fully sure why the game was never actually released in the UK, as a name change would have been fairly straight forward. The game wasn't fantastic, but nor was a load of Ocean titles released in 1986 time in comparison.
Some theories so far are that the game was actually originally to be the Ocean conversion of Airwolf, before Elite got the licence. If you look at the title screen, the helicopter is almost identical to the one in the Airwolf adverts that Ocean released. Another theory was that the game was simply not good enough and was sold off to make a small profit to Quelle Soft to launch.
We believe there is still a story to tell with this game, even though a release was actually made. What happened to the UK release, and what really was this game mean't to have been?
Next steps are to get hold of Tony Pomfret and try and find out more!
