Happy May Day, everyone! It was one year ago that I started doing my "Bouquet of the Month" posts, and even though I said I wasn't going to do them anymore (that's what I said on the first of last month anyway), because I'm posting today – and it's MAY DAY – I'm sharing the tulips growing in my front garden. They just bloomed this week, which is just a little bit late because of the cool spring we've had here in Minnesota.
Aren't they bright and cheery?!!! They're right out our front door! It's so fun to go in and out of the house and be able to see these.
We're supposed to have some rain showers this morning, so they weren't open, but they're still beautiful.
You can BARELY see the tiniest edging of red along the edge of the tulip petals on this shot.
Funny story about these yellow and red/orange tulips – years ago the company my husband worked for had these in their front garden in the spring. After they bloomed and their landscape company ripped them out to put in the summer plants, they were all going to be put into the trash. All of them! In the trash! What a waste!! My husband asked them if he could take some, they said "go for it" and he took them all!!! I had them lining the south side of our garage for years, and even though they were beautiful and full there, we never saw them from our house. I moved them to the front of our house so we can see them when we drive up or are in our office (which is on ground level facing the front garden). Over the years they've thinned quite a bit, but it's still fun to have a few of them. They're a gorgeous color!
Fall is the best time to plant spring blooming bulbs, and this fall I think I need to add to the tulips with some daffodils and hyacinth. Did you know that there are tulips that bloom at different times of the spring. If you work it right, you can have tulips blooming for several months!
It really does seem like spring is here now. This is the sign! I hope you've enjoyed these tulips as much as I have. They sure are a day brightener!!!

A2 inflamation?
Tina Spang (f)
Hej! I have pain at the base of the middle finger, where the A2 pulley is. When I press at the base of the finger it hurts and when i grab holds with my fingers in 90 degrees angle it hurts. I can feel the pulley inside and it feels like it is swollen. I never noticed an instant injury, the pain appeared after a workout. I have had this pain for almost two months now and am starting to get really sick of it. I have tried Ipren for five days two times, I have tried icebaths, I have tried warm water baths, I have tried rest for almost two weeks and nothing helpes. The only change is when I had the restperiod and after/during the rest it got worse. I am now considering an injection of cortisone. Is this the way to go. I have heard you can get a lot of bad side effects of cortisone but what are they. And what are the god thing about cortisone? Still hoping for the best and for an magic answer. Thanks! //Tina

Do not get a cortisone shot. That will only temporarily reduce inflammation, not help heal your damaged pulley. Stop taking ibuprofen, for the same reason. Look here for a great explanation of pulley injury rehab: http://www.onlineclimbingcoach.blogspot.com/2010/05/pulley-injuries-article.html some more good info: http://www.onlineclimbingcoach.blogspot.com/2012/03/injuries-problem-with-lay-off.html Progressive rehabilitation is the key. Pulleys are slow to heal; this is more likely to be a process of months, not weeks. Patience is key.

Had this on three fingers, don't stop climbing, but climb only with open hand. Do NOT crimp, not even open crimp, just use holds where the hand is open. I tape the hurting finger so that it's impossible to crimp, cause once in a while you forget yourself. It will take many weeks to get fully recovered, but you will get strong on open hand which isn't a bad thing.
Tina Spang (f)
Thanks for your replys, and for your reading tips, wich I already have read. I have some experience myself regarding these kind of injury. Three years ago the A2 pylley on my ringfinger ruptured with the classic loud "pop". As strange as i may be I never had any pain from this and my finger never got swollen. Since that injury i never crimp on holds, I learnde how to get strong with the open hand position. Anybody out there who has excperience with akupunkture to reduce inflamation? Thanks again! //Tina

Use the X taping technic to lower the movement of the to first two phalanxes, lower the intensity of your trainings (use better hand holds and lower volume) and finally progress into a more open kind of grip. You will feel strange for some months, because its a different kind of climbing, but eventually open grip will become a bit more strong and you will safer that way. Keep using tape for some months until you dont notice pain. Keep the icebaths. Maybe some low intensity exercises during rest days may benefit on the inrush of blood to the zone. You can use theraband elastics, plastic balls or tennis balls. All is fine as long it doesnt hurt. LOTS OF STRETCHING and never cold stretching.
Tina Spang (f)
Update. I have now seen a doctor, not a specialist but experienced. He advised me to have a restperiod for two months. He objected to cortisoneinjection. He also said I should not squeeze anything with my hand. The hardest workload he recomended was playing the piano. If anybody professional recomend me to continue climbing, that is what I will do, because two months without climbing will drive me crazy!
Ron Berends
Such a familiar case unfortunately. I am suffering multiple A2 (and A4) injuries for already 6 months. After some months of struggle I have consulted a sports physician (linked to the Dutch climbing team). Conclusion: tendons and pulleys are not adapted to the abnormal forces. The only thing that helps is to give your body enough time to adapt to climbing. Please remind that it takes at least 2 years before your pulleys are adapted to climbing, depending on the age when you started climbing. After a injury, it takes at least 1 year for a pulley to fully recover and have the 'old' strength. Because pulleys are slowly healing including the connective ('scar') tissue that has to adapt as well. Therefore, always use supportive taping for old injuries (1-2 years), and keep stretching your fingers to prevent 'trigger' fingers. I do not believe in complete rest for 2 months since you have to 'remind' your body to the activity of climbing. Supportive muscles such as forearms and core muscle need to be strong to prevent injuries. Even in acute ruptures you only take 2 weeks complete rest and immobilisation. I have experienced that you have to decrease the intensity to a minimum level. For me this was 5a when my redpoint level is 6c. Decrease the amount of climbing sessions per week and allow at least 2 days of rest in between. This is almost as hard as not climbing, if not worse. Try to prevent crimping and overhanging routes. After 2 months you can slowly increase the intensity. When you notice it did not help, decrease the intensity even more to the level at which you experience improvement. Additional therapy for me includes taking glucosamine during recovery after a training session. Glucosamine is an essential building block of your ligaments and tendons. It even has a slight anti-inflammatory effect. Please note that there is no scientific proof at all that this might help for pulley ruptures. However it makes sense. Glucosamine is a nutritional supplement and over the counter available in the Netherlands. but please consult your doctor first before taking it. Furthermore, I was adviced by my sports physician to squeeze in rubber balls or rings with a frequency of 180 times per hand! Do not focus on maximum power but on slowly expanding the ball to its normal size. This will train your pulleys for the eccentric powers of climbing, and trains your forearms as well. Again, this is not proven scientifically but copied from similar injuries in other ligament injuries. Last but not least, push ups will train your forearms, larger muscles and core muscles to fully support your fingers. So, quite a large story but I hope it will help. If you love climbing as much as we all do, then please allow yourself to recover. This will prevent you ending up in frustration and provides much climbing fun on a long-term.

Thanks again for your answer. What an enormous amount of experience we can collect here:) I have been climbing for twelve years, so I guess you can call med quite experienced. I almost only boulder nowwdays since it is a lot easier running after your kids when you are not attaced to a rope;). I guess you did see a hand/fingerspecialist. When I ruptured (not complete)my pulley three years ago I was advised complete rest for ten weeks. I guess doctors do not have enough injurys to study yet to know which treatment is the best. Thanks for your training tips also. I already do them all... I have a theory that lack of sleep weakens your body/tissues, or that constant tirerdness makes you not noticing when you get tired and should go home istead of giving it one last try. Last time I hurt my finger my second child was about the same age as my third on is now when I got injured again. Anybody professional who can confirm? Regards //Tina
Tina Spang (f)
Anybody knows if this forum is read by the doctor? Mabye he has been to Thailand for the last weeks? Still no change in my finger btw...:(
Jon Smith
My experience with A2 injuries, and I've had several in different fingers, is that rest is the way to go. I've sometimes rested for several months, even though I have nothing to do on my free time when I can't climb. Usually a few weeks rest is enough but when you eventually return to climbing make sure to start by climbing easy routes, use big handholds and footholds and avoid overhangs, then slowly progress to harder stuff. This is my experience anyway and it has been proven to work (on me).
Tina Spang (f)
Thank you for sharing your experience!I now have an appointment with a handspecialist on monday. Really nervous about the weridict!Still no word from dr Stromberg...
Caroline Even
Hi Tina, any update on your status? How did you end up recovering? I have had an A2 + A4 strain/pulley for 12 weeks now, and it is still painful to touch at times, and still feels weak. I initially kept climbing on it, took 2 weeks off as things were not getting better, started climbing again, and stopped again - I am now 4 weeks off climbing, but I load the injury on my fingerboard every now and then on open hand crimps and pull ups. I guess things improved slightly, but no miracle and I am getting very frustrated like you!

The Government will be completing a further regional pilot of the scheme during the next five years and although we don't expect that the national roll-out of the extension of RTB will take this long, we don't yet have any more details about when it will be introduced.
If you were considering the RTB scheme, then you may have the Right to Acquire (RTA) that gives qualifying customers a fixed discount of £9,000 (£10,000 in City of York and Hambleton) from the cost of buying their home.
To find out if you qualify, please contact us.
If you do buy through the RTA as you don't qualify for the RTB, then when the RTB is extended you wouldn't be able to claim any additional discount.
You can find out more information about shared ownership options on the Thirteen Homes website.

I don't see the link; except for the scripts.
A nice theme in sunday morning... most I like the first photo - that's so sping feeling...
The linky doesn't working (in other memes too, it seems a global problem )
My post is here:
Have a great sunday all :-)
Beautiful weekend to all!
Oh, linky is just thawed :-)
I just love the picture of the little rabbit - great lighting, and those pale pink flowers are beautiful - the leaves look like roses but the flowers look more like non-frilly carnations?
With spring soon upon us, we are slowly feeling the softness of a new season, bright and dreamy, and softer than winter's rough edges.
Thanks for hosting, ladies.
Wishing you a wonderful week!
Sorry about the linky problem, I can see you all now, thanks for linking up! : )
Yay, finally got to play along! Love the prompt this week too!
Gorgeous photos from everyone!

Case Study
Suppose we have a wireless ad hoc network. A wireless ad hoc network is a decentralized type of wireless network. The network is ad hoc because it does not rely on a pre existing infrastructure, such as routers in wired networks or access points in managed (infrastructure) wireless networks. Instead, each node participates in routing by forwarding data for other nodes, so the determination of which nodes forward data is made dynamically on the basis of network connectivity.
Nodes in the ad hoc network has unique id that identify it across the network. Each of the nodes uses a certain protocol.
Various protocols are used including aodv, dsdv, dsr etc. There are various version of a specific protocol. An ad hoc network typically refers to any set of networks where all devices have equal status on a network and are free to associate with any other ad hoc network device in link range.
Nodes in the ad hoc networks send packets to each other. Each packet has two parts namely: header and data. Header information contains source destination address and some other information. Each packet is sent on one of the route based on the source destination address. There can be several hopes around one route. Every route is assigned a weight based on some pre defined rule.

(Writers note: The last time I fired a gun was 15 years ago at the safety of a shooting range.

Sometimes meeting your heroes turns out to be a good thing. This was definitely the case for Greg Williams and the late Chris Kyle, Navy Seal and subject of the box office hit American Sniper.
While Greg aka 'Greggo' was very busy being a controversial radio talk show host in Dallas at KTCK-1310AM – the TICKET and later on KRLD- 105.3FM – The Fan aka the RAGE show (a CBS Affiliate), Chris Kyle was listening to him and was loving what he heard. When Greg discovered that Chris Kyle was actually living in his own back yard, raised in Midlothian, TX and educated at Tarleton State University which many of Greggo's friends attended, he contacted Kyle and invited him to be a guest on the RAGE show. Kyle excitedly accepted. The mutual appreciation society was born.
The men developed a strong friendship over the two-and-a-half years they knew one another. Kyle had written his now infamous book American Sniper and had his own company, Craft, Int'l, which boasted huge space in Uptown Dallas (near the radio station) containing massive work out rooms and as Kyle vaguely put it, "worked with foreign governments'.
Greggo had always been obsessed with Navy Seals and Kyle liked having someone he could use to get his word out to the people, which Greggo, on the airways from 2pm to 7pm Monday through Friday was happy to do. "Chris loved having a voice on the radio," said Greggo. "He would often say 'I can get him to say anything' and then text me something only to hear it come out of my mouth moments later on the show. He had some strong opinions and he liked the conversations that culminated from his texts."
Off the air, however, the men didn't talk much of Kyle's new found fame and dangerous past. They met for lunch in Uptown Dallas, frequenting Mattitos and Eatsio's restaurants and talked about (almost) everything else under the sun.
Greggo made an easy effort not to be a 'fan' as they fell into a comfortable friendship rather quickly. He did not want to be one of the many who were now courting Kyle as his book was making waves and his fame was escalating, so they kept a lot of their conversations to basic living, guns and sports. "Chris was a huge Cowboys fan and an even bigger Rangers fan. Since much of my radio show centered around sports, my connection to the players excited Chris. He wanted to be them and they admired him. I had both to share. It was a great match." Greggo did tell Kyle once about his fantasy of becoming a Navy Seal himself but Kyle laughed him off. Greggo knew he could never attain the psychological stamina to pass those grueling tests. Few could.
For Greggo, Kyle was a hero. Kyle, however, saw himself as a warrior. "He never called himself a hero. He didn't even see himself as a killer, just a man doing the job the government had sent him to do." That job however, certainly involved guns, something Chris Kyle was very passionate about.
"He wanted my radio partner at the time, Richie Whitt, to shoot a machine gun. Richie was very anti-gun and we were in cahoots to get him to a range and do it. Chris was playful and commanded a room. He believed strongly in what he believed in. There was little halfway mark with Chris. He was all about God, Country and Family and not necessarily in that order."
Kyle was raised Baptist and remained quite attached to the faith. He was quite shy and because of his military demeanor could appear quite standoffish at times. "What you saw was what you got," says Greggo about Kyle. "There was not an ounce of phoniness about him. He wasn't up for all the hoo-ha that started surrounding him and pledged to have the proceeds of the book to go to the families of his fallen comrades". Greggo admits he knows nothing about what actually became of those proceeds as there has been some controversy surrounding this claim, but states firmly this is what Kyle's intention was.
Greggo admits that Kyle didn't like that people saw him only as a killing machine; a trained robot in the trade. He understood, however, that this was a normal way to think of him because he'd achieved all the 'kills' and in his Navy Seal Brotherhood he was often referred to as a machine. "He felt it was his job….he was just doing his job. He felt in fact, that his job was to protect people. He said to me once at lunch, "If I do a bad job at work, people die. If you do a bad job at work, someone turns the station."
"He was never in it for fame or fortune," claims Greggo. "Most of the Seals he spoke to me about he thought of as very solid men of valor. They were there to help one another and to keep details of their ops private to protect the government. He felt there was no room for ego. Facts were simply facts."
Nonetheless, for all of Kyle's desires to appear more human and less a war machine, he was a staunch believer in guns and guns for everyone. He likened anti-gun laws to blaming a pizza for making someone get fat. "He did not support a cooling off period and was a proud card carrying member of the NRA. He felt very strongly that people were responsible for their actions, that the gun was not the issue and that people should have guns no matter what. I disagreed and though I am a huge gun lover, I feel there need to be more rules in place before a gun can be purchased. We disagreed on a lot of things politically – he was much more conservative than I was, but it never affected our bar stool buddy friendship. And, by the way," jokes Greggo, "Kyle was very good at NOT picking up that bar tab!"
The summer before he died, Kyle was organizing one day civilian shoots at the Rough Creek Lodge Shooting Range (where he was ultimately killed). Here, anyone who signed up could be taught by Kyle himself to shoot weapons from handguns to belt fed machine guns. He had enlisted Greggo's help to promote the event on the RAGE show. Greggo also suggested putting together a "Military Fantasy Camp" like the Baseball Fantasy camps he had attended. "I told him he could make a fortune and that old guys like me would pay top dollar to be in his company and learn from the American Sniper!"
As far as the movie American Sniper goes, Greggo saw the film on a bootleg video before the movie premiered. He thinks it's a wonderful piece of art. "It's one of the best war movies I've ever seen. Maybe the best. Sure there were a few corny things and Chris would have cringed at anything that wasn't portrayed exactly as the military truly was (he references the scenes where Chris called Taya, his wife, from a cell phone while in the middle of sniper position.) He didn't understand fictionalizing things. But Bradley Cooper was brilliant as Chris. It was literally like seeing Chris on the screen."
The movie made such an impression on Greggo that instead of attending the Dallas premiere on January 16, 2014 with tickets given to him by Taya's brother Stewart Smith, he gave his tickets to his girlfriend (now wife) and a friend. "As great a movie as it was, it was hard to watch. I wasn't sure I was up to seeing it again quite so soon. My emotions were quite raw. His death had a profound effect on me."
What of the controversy surrounding the movies alleged pro-war status? Greggo says, "If you don't want to glorify a movie about a sniper, then make a movie about a sniper who's not a good shot! This is what Chris did. War is essential in the world though nobody likes it. We need people like Chris who feel passionate and patriotic. War is a necessary evil as far as I'm concerned."
"Yes, violence was glorified. Chris was a violent man when when he was at work. Killing is the ultimate win/loss. This (American Sniper) was a story about a winner. Hurt Locker, another great war film, didn't glorify killing; it glorified survival. It's not politicized, it's a movie. The Godfather glorified crime. Everyone wanted to be a gangster after that film came out."
Greggo says Kyle would be uncomfortable with all the attention the movie is getting but he'd have a smile on his face. "He'd be pleased, but he didn't want to go Hollywood or anything like that. When we first met he had just finished doing a reality show on NBC, called Stars Earning Stripes, partnering him with actor Dean Cain and he found it a lot of fun but a surreal experience. He was a man of few words. He liked his life in Texas. He had worked hard to be the best he could be, instilled early by his father to have strong work ethics, and he took what he did seriously."
"I never saw him suffering. He was smart as a whip, funny and considerate. He had peace of mind. He never mentioned anything was bothering him and felt everything he'd done in war was justified. He was a soldier – he believed in his job."
Kyle was a man who kept certain parts of his life very private. "I'm fine", he would tell Greggo if he asked how he was doing. "It was always, I'm fine. I never heard about any problems. I didn't know he was reaching out to other Vets. He was a man who thought he could save the world and he was going to do his part, whatever he felt that was."
Even though Kyle never thought himself a hero, Greggo and many others did. "The Navy Seals protected their own. They were as tight knit a group as you could find anywhere. The spectacle of honor at his Memorial at Cowboy Stadium and at the memorial site (which Greggo attended and which was guarded by biker friends in case of protest) were an amazing deference to the reputation and admiration Chris had within his ranks."
Greggo, who has made the papers throughout the Dallas area for his on and off air exploits and difficulties, is in a good place today. He is almost two years sober. He calls the years of 2007-2013 full of energy, good times and bad luck, much contributed by himself. Counting throngs of Regular Joes, politicians and athletes throughout Texas as fans, he was a big name on the radio and he had and still has a lot of admirers. Chris Kyle became a friend and Greggo is proud of that.
These days Greggo is starting to write again and recently took a small role in the movie Windsor, that writer/director Porter Farrell wrote especially for him. Greggo admits to being at a bit of a crossroads. He has a grown son and wants to make the right choices now that he's sober. He thinks of Chris Kyle when he thinks about his future. "He was everything I ever wanted to be. A Navy Seal, an excellent father and a good guy. The sign of a true man is when you do something for somebody, knowing you'll never be repaid. Chris Kyle was that man."

RetroEdit: Editing...
I've almost got editing working, I can click on the bitmap and it draws a pixel into the right place. Theres still loads to do, but it shouldn't take long now. Once I get editing and saving working, i can let Luca lose on it and try it out - it should help him do later level sprites. I'm expecting great things from him once he gets a good editor, as hes already done amazing things with - well, crap editors!

"I CAN NOW feel lucky every day…"
"It feels great to have become Irish…"
"I'm very excited to be part of Irish society…"
"It is such a peaceful country…"
"Now I have a sense of belonging to the country…that has done so much for me…"
These were just some of the statements overheard after today's Citizenship Ceremonies at Dublin's Convention Centre.
Retired judges Byran McMahon and Patrick McMahon presided over three ceremonies which saw Irish citizenship granted to 3,092 people from more than 100 countries across the world.
Attending the celebrations today was Minister Alan Shatter, who made the decision on taking office in March 2011 that the granting of Irish citizenship should be marked in a "formal and meaningful way".
The first ceremony took place on 24 June 2011.
During his speech this morning, he said:
The decision to apply to become an Irish citizen is, I know, one you did not take lightly and today is a major event in your life and that of your family. The oath you will soon take is a solemn personal undertaking and I know it is one you take seriously. Today is also a major event for us as the host nation in bestowing this honour on you.
He also mentioned that today is Martin Luther King Day in the United States, noting that the dream of a country where people "are not judged by the colour of their skin or by their background but "by the content of their character still strikes a chord in the 21st Century".
My message to all of our new citizens here today is that, upon becoming an Irish citizen, each of you will become a citizen of a State in which you have equal rights, in which your rights as Irish citizens are no different to those Irish citizens whose ancestors were born here and the equal rights of each of you are deserving of equal respect. You are becoming citizens of a State whose Constitution proclaims the equal rights of men and women and whose laws prohibit discrimination against any individual on grounds of race, religion, sexual orientation or gender.
Read: "We're not looking for a handout, we have to earn citizenship"

Ironic isn't it, that for all the knocks American Idol has taken for making contestants sing old songs, three of the top four did better with tunes from the 1920s, '30s and '40s than with the 2013 numbers that started the show on Wednesday.
Missed a recap? Go toour Television page.
(The exception was Kree, who was much more convincing on her current song.)
Maybe that's because crooner Harry Connick Jr. was there to guide the girls on the standards.
The one that Kree tackled, "Stormy Weather," could have been an anthem for the mood of the episode.
It opened with scenes of last week's jubilation when the contestants learned that no one was going home, but it quickly became clear these women are worn down from all the pressure of the singing competition.
There was Kree turning the blame on herself for last week's unjustly harsh criticisms from the judges and Amber, slammed for her first Wednesday performance, unable to hold back tears after her second.
Things weren't much happier at the judges' table. Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj had words, and Connick Jr. had a disagreement with Randy Jackson.
It's probably good news there are only two weeks left in the season.
Frankly, these two-hour episodes encourage verbal diarrhea from the judges since you need lots of filler to pack around eight two-and-a-half minute songs.
That raises another interesting question: with all that time to kill and Idol producers so keen to acknowledge their alumni, why was Season 10 finalist Haley Reinhart snubbed? She was sitting right there on the aisle in camera view as host Ryan Seacrest walked past her without even a glance after singling out Carole Bayer Sager and Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds in the audience.
Pssst, Ryan, bet Haley is better known to that youth demographic that Idol so covets than Sager or Edmonds.
Anyway, here's a look at the non-filler parts of the show. Singers are ranked from my most to least favourite.
Round 1, Songs from 2013
Kree Harrison: Poor Kree, it wasn't bad enough she was the victim of a hatchet job by the judges last week, Seacrest had to make her relive it. "Last week, the judges were a little tough on you," he said, asking what Kree did "to get into the right state of mind" this week. Blamed herself, that's what. Kree said she didn't disagree with the judges after watching tapes of her performances, and that she wasn't connected enough to the audience or the songs. Well, horsefeathers, some of us say, but no one could argue she wasn't connected to her first song on Wednesday, Carrie Underwood's "See You Again." This had all the things that are best about Kree's voice: clarity of tone, delicate vibrato, the ache in her upper register. The judges were satisfied and Connick Jr. came out from backstage to give Kree a congratulatory hug.
Angie Miller: So let me get this straight: all season the judges tell Angie to stay behind her piano. On Wednesday, she does a piano arrangement of Rihanna's "Diamonds" and they crap all over it. Sure, it was a little draggier than the original and, yes, I could see Angie playing to the camera, but other than a high note that went slightly awry it was solid vocally and I liked the arrangement. The judges sure didn't, though, saying a) Angie had deprived Rihanna fans of their "ear candy"; b) she played to the camera and the audience too much. "It was bland, it was lacklustre, you can do a lot better," said Minaj, never one to mince words. To her credit, Angie politely thanked each judge after they dumped on her, even when Jackson leered at her leather shorts.
Candice Glover: I'll be honest, I couldn't completely ignore the fact that Candice was singing a man's song, Bruno Mars' "When I Was Your Man," but vocally, Candice had her mojo back. There was a sharp note toward the end, but otherwise she made good use of her vocal arsenal. The judges were not at all bothered by the gender confusion. "When you sing like that you can sing 'When I Was Your Giraffe,' it doesn't matter," Urban said. Minaj, who warned Candice last week against seeming old-fashioned, said she could now see Candice as a current R&B singer. "I don't know if you lost weight, but you look good, baby girl. You feel and look to me like an artist," Minaj said. She also spurred her fellow judges to gives Candice a belated standing ovation.
Amber Holcomb: The judges often talk about the importance of song choice with good reason. Why would Amber pick a song, P!nk's "Just Give Me a Reason," that she didn't know the lyrics to? She didn't drop any words during her performance, but she seemed uncomfortable throughout: at odds with the band at times, not hitting her high notes with her usual reliability and looking almost sheepish when she looked into the camera. The judges' reviews were bad, but Urban and Carey tried to soften the blow by saying it would have been difficult for Amber to learn both the words and the complicated melody.
Round 2, Standards
Candice: Candice did not follow Connick Jr.'s advice, which was to leave the runs and flourishes out of Billie Holiday's "You've Changed," but she should be forgiven since it sounded so good. For me, this was almost as good as "Love Song." The soft and pretty parts (with a nice little trill added to her vibrato) and the parts when she was belting were equally great, and the run near the end was terrific, no matter what Connick Jr. may have thought. Candice deserves top three just on this performance alone. After the judges had given her a standing ovation, Jackson took a dig at Connick Jr., saying, "It's not about singing runs, Harry, it's about feeling what you sing ... Miles Davis said to me, 'You have to feel what you're singing.'" You all catch the shameless name drop there? Jackson also referred to Candice as a "church kid" and trotted out his "in it to win it" catchphrase. Isn't that thing dead yet?
Amber: At first it looked like Amber was going to go zero for two on Wednesday with a reprise of her Vegas Week hit "My Funny Valentine." She seemed like she hadn't fully committed to the song at the start, but her confidence grew and by the time she got to the line, "Don't change a hair for me," she was singing like she meant it. It was quite lovely by the end. With tears streaming down her father's face in the audience, Amber wiped away tears of her own partway through Minaj's comments and Seacrest appeared at her side, ready to offer comfort. "You're up there crying because you're thinking about votes," Minaj said. "It doesn't matter about votes, you're a superstar; you have fans everywhere: stop. No matter what happens tomorrow you have a lifetime ahead of you to make incredible moments in music, my darling. Please believe in yourself, that was a great job."
Angie: My favourite part of Angie's voice is the soft pretty part that we heard at the beginning of "Someone to Watch Over Me," almost a cappella with just a guitar for accompaniment. It would have been perfection had it stayed that quiet and simple. All the strings kicking in necessitated louder singing, which wasn't quite as captivating: still a good solid performance, though. This was where Minaj and Carey had their disagreement. Minaj told Angie that her face and body transform when she hits higher notes and she should "get the beginning to there." When it was her turn, Carey said, "We can't expect everything to be at the top of your register. There has to be a build, so I'm just disagreeing with certain members of the panel that every moment's got to be at the top of your most happy Disney princess moment." "Who said every moment's got to be at the top?" interjected Urban. "Exactly ... that's not what I said. You've got to clean your ears out," said Minaj. She tried to hand Carey a Q-tip and the two of them talked over each other until Seacrest threatened to put them in a corner.
Kree: It probably seems unfair to, on one hand, praise Candice for ignoring Connick Jr.'s advice and putting runs into her standard and, on the other, censure Kree for the same thing. The difference is that the melody of "Stormy Weather," at least the version I know, got lost in all of Kree's flourishes. There was nothing wrong with her voice per se, but I wasn't reading "woman aching for her lover" in Kree's interpretation. The judges had nice things to say about Kree's voice but not so nice about her song choice. Jackson said Kree should have focused on the Etta James version of the song instead of the Lena Horne version because that would have suited her bluesy tendencies better. That didn't sit well with Connick Jr., who was invited to the judges' table to respond. "Randy, she has to learn the melody first," he said. "You have to learn the song first and then be Kree." "I agree, but Kree, always just be you, baby," Jackson said. "We want you to be Kree, but choose the Etta James version," said Connick Jr. mockingly. Seacrest told them they were making Carey and Minaj "look very benign."

That was it for the episode other than a random group number at the end, "Wings" by Little Mix. Between the female backup dancers and the lyrics ("Your words don't mean a thing/I'm not listening"), it seemed like part female empowerment song, part screw you to the judges.
The real drama comes Thursday night when we find out whether Candice and Amber did enough to pull themselves out of bottom two and who'll go home. It airs at 8 p.m. on CTV Two.

Lots of stuff done. Figured out I could use my dremel plunge router as a makeshift drill press. Ain't perfect but damn near.
The poly finish test turned out very well. And after only about 4 days of cure time. The actual guitar will get a full week o cure time after a number of thin coats. It looks thick but man it's thin, sand throughs are so easy. If they happen- which they did- you'd need to block sand down with 220 everything and basically start the process over from the first coat. Not too bad just annoying.
For those of you wanting to polish it out. You'll need the gloss formula of wipe on poly, the others like satin and semi gloss have flattened which can't be buffed out. Make sure a minimum of 4 days pass after the final coat. Then sand with 600. I didn't use a block just let the sandpaper kiss the surface in circles. The powder should be bright white and show be dusty. If it sticks and corns up the paper too soon then you'll know it's not ready. Basically a small 3inx3in square should sand about Half of the test piece I have.
Once it's good and dull then wait another day then do the same with 1000 grit then 2000 grit. If you have micro mesh keep goin from 3200 to 12000. I'm lazy so I just use finesse it II by 3m and then the hand glaze. I tend to stay away from meguires stuff because they are kinda sketchy about which product contains silicone oil. Basically it's shit that will prevent any finish from sticking. It's a contaminant that can make your life miserable . Some of their products don't have it but why take the chance?

About Martin's Last Dollar Ranch...
The Martin's horse business evolved from a hobby to a breeding, raising and showing enterprise. Docs Frosty Lena CT, our current stallion, was trained and shown by Melanie Wilhelm in Open NRHA and AQHA classes.

Terry & Warnetta are really excited about 'Frosty's' offspring because they possess their sire's big heart, willingness to please, athletic ability and overall good looks. The Martins take pride in making sure all their colts get a good start and since 1999 have sent them to Melanie Wilhelm where they are started quiet & gentle. Melanie also finishes the reiners & futurity prospects. Recently Docs Frosted Shiner placed in the Top 5 of the 2007 NRHA Limited Open Futurity and also made the 2008 NRHA Derby finals.

Camp Hilltop Daily Program
The Hilltop Program consists of six daily activities Monday through Saturday. The Sunday program has a different, more relaxed schedule. There are four different types of activities: cabin activity, intensive, free activity, and evening program.
Cabin Activity
Each day, campers experience two different hour-long cabin activities, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Cabin activities are assigned by our program director and campers participate with their cabin group. This allows us to expose campers to the wide range of activities we offer at Hilltop. It also encourages kids to try an area of interest they might not have tried on their own, while further developing pursuits they are already familiar with. As they learn about new things and encourage each other, it also builds and strengthens friendships among the campers in their cabins.
The intensive is an activity that the campers choose themselves. Therefore, an intensive activity will typically be a mix of ages and genders with a shared interest. It is an activity they would like to try to learn in more depth. Sign-ups for certain intensives, for example, horses, mountain bikes, and tennis are based on ability levels. This way, each child receives the appropriate level of instruction to foster confidence and skill development. An intensive is one and a half hours in length and runs three consecutive days. There are two different intensives each day, morning and afternoon.
Each week, campers have the opportunity to participate in four separate intensives.
Free Activity
Each given day, campers may choose what they would like to do during Free Activity. Options include relaxing with friends, reading a book or participating
in one of the other activities at Camp Hilltop. Free activity happens every day from 4:15 to 5:30 and on Sunday afternoons. All of the main activities are open and the campers can float between them or they can hang out with their friends in designated areas. The Camp Store is also open during free activity.
Evening Program
After dinner each day, the evening programs begin. They are usually all-camp activities such as campfires, game shows, talent shows, and crazy games or races. A summer schedule is available on our website so campers can get a glimpse of the fun they can have!

Touring in Rhineland-Palatinate, the most westerly German federal state neighbouring Belgium, Luxembourg and France, is always a pleasure! The diversity of the landscape and culture of the ten Rhineland-Palatinate regions, the Rhine and the Moselle being two of them, invites you to visit, to see, to taste and to discover.
You can simply relax, let go and enjoy yourself in the countryside of rolling hills, vineyards as far as the eye can see, romantic rivers, castles and ruins shrouded in legend, historical towns with timber framework buildings where you can end your tour with a glass of Riesling in the evening!
Hiking and biking: breathing the spectacular nature
The natural beauty of Rhineland-Palatinate provides the perfect natural playground for a number of outdoor activities like hiking and biking. Each hiking trail has its own special features: The paths lead through uplands, past ravines and lakes, across meadows and through woods, with breath-taking views of picturesque river and vineyard landscapes. The jewels in the crown of hiking trails are undoubtedly the "Steige" – the long-distance hiking trails of Rhineland-Palatinate! For those who enjoy the feeling of a fresh breeze blowing in their face have a variety of choices amongst 7,000 kilometres of quality-tested cycling routes meander through the whole of Rhineland-Palatinate. Uniform signs along the cycle routes make it easier for you to move along while enjoying the diversity of the passing countryside with no worries at all. Tours can be selected according to their gradient or according to landscapes or cultural interests. It's all up to you!
Wine tasting: paradise for wine lovers
Where can good wines be enjoyed more than where the vines grow? Viticulture was brought to Rhineland-Palatinate by the Romans over 2,000 years ago and has been thriving here ever since. The region produces around 70 percent of all German wine and is a real paradise for wine lovers. Wineries are the best places to enjoy the light, fruity and delicate wines grown in the excellent Rhineland-Palatinate soil.
Culture and events: historical and modern at the same time!
Rhineland-Palatinate is home to 4 UNESCO World Heritage sites: Upper Middle Rhine Valley, the city of Trier on the Moselle, Speyer Cathedral and the Limes (former Roman border line). More than 500 castles, castle ruins, palaces and fortresses can be found here. Besides, Rhineland-Palatinate is never boring with more than 1,000 cultural, wine, beer, local and public festivals. An example is the "Rhine in Flames" event, which sees the Rhine Valley lit up in the fascinating fireworks!

Commercial Broker NYC - Real Estate - Commercial Property
Commercial Broker NYCВ В by Erik Nissani
in Real Estate / Commercial Property В В (submitted 2012-11-27)
Although most people with some experience in the real estate market understand that trusting the other party' agent 100% is a bad move, they tend to put more faith in a commercial broker. NYC' market is vastly different than the markets in many other parts of the country, and due to cost factors and availability, renting is almost as common as owning, and in some areas even more so. This is especially true with commercial real estate and with small business owners looking to expand their office or services spaces.
Often, commercial brokers in NYC work with both buyers and sellers to come to help both parties close the deal in a way that benefits everyone. However, as with most things in life, you're banking on the fact that the broker is both trustworthy and working for you rather than the other party. Even the best broker is going to be biased towards the person paying for their services, even if they treat the other party as if the broker is, in fact, working as a true third party.
With Willowstone Realty, you are actually getting a broker that strives to ensure everything is working in the favor of the buyer or potential tenant. When it comes to commercial broker services in NYC, it can truly be a dog eat dog world; and, as is only natural, oftentimes tenants or buyers don't have as much experience in the market as the person they're looking to buy or rent from. Sadly, this lack of experience can make it easy for the "wool" to be pulled over one' eyes. At Willowstone Realty, we make sure that you understand everything that is currently happening, the deal you're getting, and work diligently to ensure you're obtaining a space that will work for you in all aspects, not just for the other party.
Commercial Real Estate NYC
Like many cities, commercial real estate NYC is just as prominent as residential, if not more so. Unlike smaller towns or cities in which housing makes up a large portion, housing and commercial properties not only coexist equally in here, they often mix. This fact makes commercial real estate in NYC a much different type of market than anywhere else.
Considered the hub of international commerce, New York City is rife with both modern and older buildings and, as such, the types of commercial real estate available in the area varies so drastically that it can be overwhelming for even the most experienced property buyer or renter. Willowstone Realty can help you to narrow down the endless choices of commercial real estate available by style, size, price, and location, and help you to find a space that has everything you want or need.
Although many brokers will simply try to move the highest revenue-generating piece of property, our brokers realize that we're only successful in this business if our clients are. This is why we also strive to find you a plethora of options that hit all of your major must-have features for a price that will allow you to grow your business, rather than spend all of your profits on rent or a mortgage.
There is another way to handle commercial real estate in NYC, and Willowstone Realty has it covered.
Office Space Chelsea
Chelsea, often viewed as an artist' haven, is actually filled with interesting, functional, and affordable office spaces that can work for just about any business. From unique industrial-style lofts to office spaces that resemble townhomes, everyone from a private lawyer to therapists to insurance agents can find an office space in Chelsea that works for them.
Located in world-famous Manhattan, Chelsea is adjacent to several of New York' prime business locations. By train, it is only 7 minutes from 42nd Street (home to Times Square, Grand Central Station, and the Chrysler Building), 12 minutes from Fulton Street (the heart of New York' subways system), and only 8 minutes from Columbus Circle. In addition to this, you can get to Union Square from your office space in Chelsea in only a minute!
As with most types of real estate, location really is everything, and this is no truer than with commercial real estate in New York. If you're looking to buy or rent office space in Chelsea, Willowstone Realty can help you to find the best section with the most benefits to your specific business needs. Whether you cater to artists or other small business owners, or you rely on foot traffic, we can find an office space in Chelsea that will enable you to grow your business to its fullest potential.
Office Space SoHo
When looking for an office space in SoHo, cost is a factor for many people. This infamous New York City neighborhood is rich in retail stores, restaurants, and other incredibly unique businesses. However, all of this does come at a cost.
Office space in SoHo is top-notch in the commercial real estate market of New York. And as such, finding something that fits your needs and your budget requires some serious legwork and expertise. After all, having the single goal of being in one specific neighborhood like SoHo is only possible if you're looking for a residential property; as you know, your business can't function without the proper space or exposure, even if it is in such a desirable location.
Without trying to sound cliché, Willowstone Realty truly understands the ups and downs, and ins and outs of the SoHo commercial real estate market like nobody else. We can help you to find an office space in SoHo that truly meets your needs outside of simply being in this bustling, unique neighborhood. While location is incredibly important, that extends to the businesses and buildings on either side of your office space in SoHo as well as being in the neighborhood itself. Don't trust just anyone to help you find real estate in SoHo: Willowstone Realty can ensure you make the best financial decision for you and your business.
Office Space Gramercy
Gramercy, a neighborhood in Manhattan, takes office space just as seriously as it does green space. With over 3,000 trees and a 2-acre private park, when looking for office space in Gramercy, you have a good chance of finding a commercial property that has just as much green as it does steel and concrete in its view.
This area is well situated in the city and is home to nine subway stations. By train, your office space in Gramercy will be only 10 minutes from 42nd Street, 12 minutes from Fulton Street, just 8 minutes from Columbus Circle, and 11 minutes from Union Square.
Gramercy has a unique blend of high-end, beautiful spaces and affordable real estate. For the budget minded, choosing office space in Gramercy can give you a whole lot more bang for your buck than other neighborhoods, while still providing you with all of the conveniences that make running your business easier. Willowstone Realty can help you find a stunning property in this up and coming neighborhood, whether you're looking for something that' simply utilitarian or if you want to go all out with your office space in Gramercy.
Even if you don't want to shell out the money for a key to Gramercy Park (one of two private parks in New York City), you can still benefit from the unique array of green spaces in this area. Nowhere else in New York can you get this type of neighborhood for this price, and Willowstone Realty can ensure you are truly getting the best deal on office space in Gramercy.

By Chris Marais & Julienne du ToitMoving to the Karoo is like emigration on trainer wheels. Your friends and folks are easily accessible in Johannesburg or Cape Town, the folding money still looks the same and we mostly speak South African languages in the Karoo – although we tend to mix them up a bit.
But don't be fooled by all that. You are, in effect, moving to another country. And it's a wonderful place. So here are some basic survival tips for moving to and living in the Heartland of South Africa.
Research, Research and Research Some More
On-line: Visit Karoo Space and poke about the Features sections and the Karoo Central department. Then consider our great e-book three-for-two offer and you've basically got the Karoo on your computer, tablet and other laptop device. Your Karoo trio of e-books (for a steal!) includes Karoo Keepsakes I, Karoo Keepsakes II and 101 Karoo Towns.
Real time: Once you've found six places that have caught your fancy, come down and visit them for a few days. Find the town that is the right size and fit for your stage in life.
A Chance to Re-invent Yourself
Stockbrokers become rose growers. Company mavens become cheese-heads. Former coal miners now make forest fairies for a living. Old journos become wine-makers. OK, that's not much reinvention but it's something.
The point is, both husband and wife can chase their dreams out here and do The Thing they've always dreamt of doing.
In our 15 years of freelancing for South African Country Life magazine (in fact, this publication should really be your first research pit-stop if you're looking to find out about life in the SA countryside), we've met hundreds of couples who have successfully undergone this transformation.
Your Work Plan
This town you've settled on, does it support your professional work plan? How is the broadband connectivity? Do the courier companies deliver every day? Who is your client base?
This is a good time to take off the rose-coloured spectacles and look long and hard at how you're going to make a living in the Karoo. The trick, obviously, is to bring your clientele with you in the move.
Your Social Network
Make sure you have someone to talk to, to get drunk with, to pray with, to take on projects with or to share a good book, movie or song with. You don't need a big posse. A couple of couples will do. You cannot live in isolation, no matter how big or flat your TV screen is.
Your Support Services
In small towns, things still get repaired. There's always a handy guy around, a Mr Fixit who takes in your toaster, your heater, your hoover, your kettle and gives it back to you tomorrow as good as new – for a very small charge. And you'll probably find your Mr Fixit used to be a Randlord or something.
Everything drops down to human scale. You know the person who works on your water mains, who does your taxes, who fills your teeth, who takes your pulse, who massages your back and who sells you hardware. You see them around a lot.
Make sure your town has at least two computer geeks – they're pure gold when your PC goes down.
Your Energy Backup Plan
We have a power failure back-up plan which involves (in winter) a roaring fire, a lustily played Spanish guitar, lots of blazing candles, cheese, crackers and bottles of red wine. This plan is often put into action, and when the lights come on we simply switch them off again and carry on warbling.
Others might want a more reliable and sophisticated set of backups, like generators, solar panels, wind pumps and rainwater tanks – all well worth the effort.
Your Medical Needs
Check out the local hospital. Any good? Or just another depressed germ factory? Now work out exactly where you would go in a medical emergency. Find out if there's a private ambulance service running to a big city or a good hospital in another town, and if your medical aid covers it.
Teach Your Children Well
How is the schooling system? A working set of all-inclusive schools brings business to the town, good will from parents, it speaks to the future of the community and its faith in being here – its sense of place. There's nothing sadder than a deserted schoolyard – and few things more pleasant than a grandstand packed with ardent supporters at a high school rugby game in the country.
Your Cost of Living
Rentals are lower, local hire doesn't put your overheads through the roof and, in general, the cost of living drops radically – along with your insurance rates. But just remember: the freshest vegetables are always sold in the cities. That weird truth is right up there with why the braai smoke always follows you around at a party.
The Town Champion
It really helps if a town has a local champion. In the rural areas, one person can indeed make a difference. That person is normally the tourism firebrand of the town, someone with a passion for restoring the local heritage, someone whose blood boils at the sight of litter all over the place.
Break bread with this person. And lend a hand when asked to.
The Town Story
This might sound trite to some out there, but look out for a town that tells its own story well. It's normally a place with a lot of festivals, tour guides and raconteurs. However, drive past the towns that have become too precious. They do not need your intellectual capital.
Beware of…
Watch out for dirty towns where no one likes to drink the water. Litter and bad water management are often signs of deeper damage, and that trail leads right up to the front steps of the local municipality.
If you can find a town where the chamber of commerce can actually sit down with municipal officials and work something out for the good of all, you're onto a winner.

Often pre-season friendlies end a long football-less summer but despite the fact that Hull City haven't played for 79 days, this years have come around quickly. In part due to the excellent European Championships and in part due to the fiasco of a management situation, football and Hull City have been at the forefront of our thinking for most of those 79 days.
Often pre-season friendlies raise excitement at the thought of seeing a raft of summer signings or trialists but this year's arrived with The Tigers having made just one signing. While the only trialist on display was the new manager's son who has just been released by L**ds United.
Often pre-season friendlies are dour fitness exercises featuring players who are easing themselves back into football after a break and who are keen not to pick up injuries before the real stuff starts. Unfortunately, this one proved to be true. The only real plus point from the evening being that despite the sky changing from blue to grey to black to pink, it didn't rain.
Steve Bruce chose to watch his first match in charge of Hull City from the touchline. Ordinarily the manager watches the Ferriby friendly from the stands but Bruce was on the line in his tracksuit keeping a close eye on things. The team was a familiar one:
Jakupovic; McShane, Dudgeon, Chester, Cooper; Cairney, Evans, Koren, Stewart; McLean, Fryatt.
Working out the formation was a conundrum. Cameron Stewart played as an out-and-out right winger, Koren played behind McLean and Fryatt and Cairney and Evans played in the middle. Joe Dudgeon patrolled the whole left flank. Andy Dawson, Paul McKenna, Liam Rosenior and Jack Hobbs watched from the clubhouse roof while the rest of the senior squad were subs, along with Alex Bruce. I'm not sure if he counts as a trialist or if we're genuinely just doing him a favour but if you were at Church Road tonight then you've seen him turn out for Hull City.
The first half was pretty dire, even by pre-season standards. The Tigers failed to create anything resembling a good opportunity for half an hour. McLean, Koren and Dudgeon all shot wide with pot shots, Dudge coming the closest hitting the side netting. Dudgeon was probably the pick of the players in the first half, proving to be a good outlet on the left hand side and putting in his usual tireless shift. Most of the others looked rusty with a high rate of hefty touches and sloppy passes. The major excitement of the half came from a Ferriby corner. Jakupovic ventured into the crowd, tried to punch but diverted the ball backwards where Gary Bradshaw, sharp as ever, headed goal-wards but found James Chester guarding the line. Bradshaw hit a tremendous dipping volley in the first half and a super left-footed drive in the second which fell a couple of feet high and wide respectively. He's been a terrific servant to North Ferriby but his football career has been a massive waste overall.
The Tigers had a couple of minor scares as Chester and Cairney stayed down after heavy clashes but everyone else reached half time in good shape. Just before the break Fryatt missed the best City chance of the half when he latched onto a smart Koren flick and then held onto the ball too long allowing Pecora to smother. We've seen that one before. The half time entertainment was provided by Alex Bruce's girlfriend. Thank heavens for mobile internet.
Olofinjana replaced Evans at half time. Perhaps precautionary? Oily doesn't change. His style's languid, his best touches are impressive and the rest are unimpressive. Ferriby took the lead soon after. I'm not linking the two events but you can if you wish. Jack Muldoon, who scored on his debut against Barton Town at the weekend, pounced on a loose ball in the penalty box [1-0]. In a competitive game you'd say it was exactly what the Tigers deserved.
Slightly embarrassed by conceding, City stepped up a gear. Matt Fryatt raced clear and lifted the ball over Pecora and also the crossbar. Shortly after a neat move released Stewart on the right, he delivered by far the best cross he's ever put in for the Tigers and Aaron McLean rose to head home powerfully from close range at the near post [1-1]. Stewart had a quiet game, as he often did after Xmas last season, but I'd take a quiet 89 minutes if he delivers with this quality.
Alex Bruce and Jay Simpson replaced Liam Cooper and Robert Koren. Simpson looked lively and ran in behind on the left, giving Ferriby something to think about. I'm not convinced Alex Bruce touched the ball. Danny East then replaced Paul McShane whose final act was to hit a ferocious shot inches over from a cleared City corner. McShane has grown his hair out and is sporting a Patrick Berger hair band. He looks a right pillock. Well more of a pillock than usual.
Friendly games usually lose their rhythm with a raft of second half substitutes (Bradley on for Chester next) but this one had been so dull that it actually improved and as Ferriby tired, City took control. Fryatt danced into the penalty area and was tripped. He got up and tucked away the penalty himself (See Video), despite Tom Cairney getting ideas above his station [1-2]. It was to be his last kick as he left the field for Cullen. Conor Townsend, loaned out to Grimsby Town last season, replaced McLean as the last change. City attacked at will in the last quarter of an hour and Pecora pushed Simpson's shot onto the bar and Cullen hit a post either side of the Tigers' third goal. Cairney, who slid in Simpson earlier with a lovely pass, dinked the ball over the top for Townsend on the left. His looping cross was scuffed on the volley by Cullen but found Simpson who controlled, used the defender to shield the ball from the keeper's view and rolled it into the bottom corner [1-3].
The Tigers ran out 3-1 winners, a slightly flattering score line, and retain the Billy Bly Memorial Cup. It wasn't a convincing display but that's only ever a bonus at this point in pre-season. It'll be 2 or 3 more games before we start to see Bruce's influence on our play and garner any real clues as to what our system and style of play will be.
The obvious positive was that three strikers scored and we avoided injuries. Jakupovic settled well and communicated well with the defence. He had a couple of dodgy moments from corners but is quick off his line, looks to distribute quickly and is decisive at least. We didn't learn a whole lot about the other players. No-one has turned into Lionel Messi over the summer and no-one has sunk to Chris Lee's level either. Jay Simpson looked sharp, Joe Dudgeon impressed on the left and James Chester came out of defence as brilliantly as ever. Otherwise it was very much the same City as it was 79 days ago.

This evening has been a bit worrying because not only was Tazkia having a fever but the poor child had the shivers too. Now in times like this i do two things 1. Google it and 2. Call mom.
The articles suggest that when your child have a fever he/she must be hydrated and should sleep in minimal clothing so that the heat can escape. Although when your child has the shivers as well it means your environment is too cold, and when its too cold, the skin's blood vessels shuts down and the heat cannot escape causing the temperature to increase. So sponging and luke warm baths is a no no in this case.
Mom suggested i put socks on her feet, some panado and holding her so that my body can heat her up, without increasing her fever.
I ended up giving her some stilpyn, and covered her with a thin blanket and good old tlc. Seemed to have worked…. For now…
If you have any of your own remedies you don't mind sharing please let me know by commenting below. Night all x

Block 7's message featured Kerry Wood, former pitcher for the Chicago Cubs, Cleveland Indians and New York Yankees. Never heard of him? You might not be as big of a Cubs fan as you thought you were, but don't worry, we've got you covered with five things to know.
1. He and his wife Sarah created the Wood Family Foundation in 2011. The foundation is set right in Chicago and advocates for children in Chicago neighborhoods.
2. He made his Major League debut when he was 20 years old. He was also named the National League rookie of the year that same year.
3. He helped break the Cubs' 95-year playoff series losing streak. The Cubs had failed to win a single playoff series since 1908, and Wood led the team to victory by pitching eight innings of five-hit ball.
4. Don't believe he can pitch fast - take a look at this photo. He couldn't toss the ball without making the photo blurry.
5. During his time with the Cleveland Indians, he was sidelined by a blister on his right index finger. Talk about tough luck.

And I have picked up the paint I ordered to be delivered to my daughter. Began thinking about the famous teachers of the New York Student League, including David Leffel and Gregg Kretz. Then I thought about the people I have studied with. Maybe 25 in total. Most were a waste of time. Knew little or nothing, were at best entertainers. Luckily my first teacher was very knowledgeable. But what about all those people taking lessons from the others? Rather sad. When I teach I encounter many of them. Absorbs you trying to break through the bad habits and misinformation.
So how might you tell who is good before wasting your time? Remember, some can paint and can't teach. Here are some considerations.
Certificates and other qualifications mean little. Harold taught the university teachers how to paint, never mind how to teach!
Time painting or teaching mean little. Practiced bad habits don't count.
A long history of taken workshops means little.
If you hear "this is THE way to...." run for the hills.
Formula approaches don't get you on the way to learning to paint.
The application of constructive truth from the teacher is fundamental.
Consider the reference from a reputable artist who tells the truth.
Consider your expectations. Learning to paint in order to become an artist is a trip. A long one. No short cuts.
Workshops are at best for learning one small element or skill. There is no followup so the ability to internalize the lesson depends on you alone, and practice. Courses are a little better.
The full trip can be enhanced by a good mentor. They put you in a position to learn, but you must do the work. As Robert Genn says, "go to your room and paint". Anything that distracts you from that slows the development process. That includes a focus on selling, doing juried shows etc. Involve your mentor.
