I love Another Day. I wasn't all that bothered about the leaked snippet, but after hearing it in it's entirity I think it's one of the strongest songs on the album.
Almost every song on the album has it's own thread, but Another Day doesn't. Is this because we've discussed it to death when it leaked last year? I've read some disappointed reactions over the final outcome, some mildly enthousiastic. Although I do agree it's a bit repetitive, it still has Michael's magic all over it and it is MJ rocking!! That on itself is never boring. I think this could be a hit, surely with Lenny's help to promote the song. His guitar solo is really cool. Also, Dave Grohl (an admitted MJ fan) contributes his drums to the song, which I can't really detect, but it's still a cool fact. When this was first leaked it seemed everyone thought this would be a huge hit, now it seems the song hardly exists to MJ fans. I think this song deserves more love, thus I started this thread. Another Day love, opinions, criticisms and discussion please!
~ Michael, you will always inspire me ~
I love Another Day. I wasn't all that bothered about the leaked snippet, but after hearing it in it's entirity I think it's one of the strongest songs on the album.
^ Definitely, in the Top 3 of the album together with Behind The Mask & Much Too Soon.
Love the new polished mix. Should have made Invincible.
^I agree, Invincible was lacking in rock MJ. Too much R&B. But I'm just happpy we got to hear the song after all. My MICHAEL top 3 at the moment:
1. Behind the Mask (this will not change, this song is epic)
2. Another Day
3. Monster/Much too Soon (depends on location. In the car it's Monster, elsewhere Much too Soon).
~ Michael, you will always inspire me ~
1. Monster = will be a HUGE hit!
2. Behind the mask
3. Keep your head up
4. Another day
I think this album is much better then invincible
O, i love the casiotracks! I hope burn 2night will be released (another casio track)
I really want to know what michael was up to with his music
I hope both Another Day and Behind The Mask get released as singles at some point becaus i'd really want to hear the original versions of it which would be marked as an "alternative mix" on the single CDs.
I would love to hear Behind The Mask with the original instrumental and Another Day the way Michael finished it.
^ Lucky for you this thread is about Another Day. Any comments on that one or are you just too busy commenting on the 'disgusting' stuff?
~ Michael, you will always inspire me ~
This song means soooo very much to me, more than i could ever explain or put into words.
Hats off to Lenny and Dave, awesome job. God bless them both and everyone who worked on the song.
Sick and tired of people going on and on and on about these Cascio tracks. Let it go already for God sake.
As for Another Day - It's pretty good, probs my 5th fav from the album.
1. Monster.
2. Breaking News
3. Hollywood Tonight
4. Behind The Mask
5. Another Day
Gotta get away from the system, rules and the world today.
The pressure that I feel from relationships had to go away
Another Day is alright. I preferred the heavier leaked version. Sounded more like a Bond song back then. Now it's significantly weaker.

Welsh RESEC goes from strength to strength
The 11th Annual RESEC Cymru joint policy Reception was again hosted by the Lord Mayor at the impressive City Mansion House.
Ar ol croeso byr gan Richard ir 11fed Derbyniad Blynyddol – roedd bwffe bach diolch ir Arglwydd Maer a Chyngor…
Professor Dame June Clark and Professor Joyce Kenkre hosted the evening which saw Welsh Government Care Minister Rebecca Evans AM cover a range current health and social care issues and current proposals in Wales. The Minister said she and the Welsh Government had been very impressed with RESECs input on policy issues in Wales for over a decade and its aims of securing best practice initiatives across the health and social policy sectors.
Professor Dame June Clark expressed best wishes on behalf of everyone to Professor John Wyn Owen, the President of RESEC Cymru, who was indisposed but who had sent his thoughts – and which she shared with everyone.
Dr Vanessa Webb updated members about her work with carers, and then the 25 invited guests drawn from academia and the third and statutory sectors participated in a Q&A session led by Professor Kenke.
Paul Pavia, the Wales RESEC Secretary, was thanked for his great efforts in developing RESEC Cymru and congratulated on his recent election to Monmouthshire Council where he had been entrusted with developing economic issues.
Richard Edwards congratulated Dame Clark and Professor Kenkre on their new roles as Associate Trustees – which recognised their support of RESEC Cymru plus individual contributions in social care & health improvements in Wales and beyond.
Simon Harrison, the UK RESEC Chair, closed the evening by detailing current RESEC activities.
Rebecca Evans AM, Minister for Social Care

I decided to get some business cards made. I produced the design in Inkscape according to Vistaprint's specification:
A nice shade of red I thought. Unfortunately, Vistaprint can't print red:
I included a few red and different colour items in the photo for comparison. I was a bit surprised at this as I had followed all the suggestions on the Vistaprint web site, and indeed the site itself seemed to render red correctly:
I contacted them and they kindly offered to try again. I sent them a few samples of the first lot so they could see the problem. The second batch turned up, and it was a slightly darker brown that the first. I contacted them again, and got this interesting response:
We currently do not have persons in place to check orders before they are printed nor shipped.
So they just press print and hope everything turns out okay.
They suggested I try converting the colour to CMYK, so I did. Sent them another proof, which again looked perfect on the web site preview. Third lot of cards turned up and sure enough they are still just as brown.
FFS Vistaprint, is it that hard to print red? Every cheap inkjet can do it, so why can't you? How can your prints be so far from what is shown on screen? I can understand not being able to match colour to a professional level but we are talking completely different parts of the spectrum here.

The Road to Happiness
Selfishness inevitably leads to dissatisfaction and disappointment, because desires are endless. The problem of happiness is, therefore, the problem of dropping out desires.
Desires, however, cannot be effectively overcome through mechanical repression. They can be annihilated only through knowledge.
If you dive deep in the realm of thoughts and think seriously for just a few minutes, you will realise the emptiness of desires.
Think of what you have enjoyed all these years and what you have suffered. All that you have enjoyed through life is today nil. All that you have suffered through life is also nothing in the present. All was illusory.
[From:- DISCOURSES by Meher Baba]

So that said, I'll go over the things I really like about git or just distributed source control in general.
Branchy development is absolutely a must. It's really really helpful to separate different parts of a project or even different parts of the same section of a project. It makes identifying and diff-ing changes really easy. Also, I found it's really helpful to have a local "work-in-progess" version of the branch I'm working on. That allows me to commit really often and not really have to worry about commit message formatting or general structure. Then when I'm ready to do a push to the repo, I rebase my commits in my WIP branch to fit all my needs, then rebase them to the main branch before pushing.
On that note, rebase is AMAZING!!! It's like the "Jesus" answer in Sunday school, or "Hydrogen bonding" in chemistry class. However, "With great power comes great responsibility". So I try my hardest to only use rebase on my local repo.
On to details about Z-engine work!!
My first milestone for Z-engine was to get a file manager fully working, seeing how pretty much every other part of the engine relies on files. When I was writing my proposal for GSoC, I thought I was going to have to write my own file manager, but Common::SearchManager to the rescue!
By default, the SearchManager will register every file within the game's directory. So any calls to
Common::File.open(Common::String filePath);will search the game's directory for the filePath and open that file if found.
Well that was easy. Done before lunch.... Well, not quite. Z-engine games store their script files in archive files. The format is really really simple, but I'll save that for a post of itself. Ideally, I wanted to be able to do:
Common::File.open("fileInsideArchive.scr");After some searching and asking about irc, I found that I can do exactly that by implementing Common::Archive:
class ZfsArchive : public Common::Archive { public: ZfsArchive(const Common::String &fileName); ZfsArchive(const Common::String &fileName, Common::SeekableReadStream *stream); ~ZfsArchive(); /** * Check if a member with the given name is present in the Archive. * Patterns are not allowed, as this is meant to be a quick File::exists() * replacement. */ bool hasFile(const Common::String &fileName) const; /** * Add all members of the Archive to list. * Must only append to list, and not remove elements from it. * * @return the number of names added to list */ int listMembers(Common::ArchiveMemberList &list) const; /** * Returns a ArchiveMember representation of the given file. */ const Common::ArchiveMemberPtr getMember(const Common::String &name) const; /** * Create a stream bound to a member with the specified name in the * archive. If no member with this name exists, 0 is returned. * @return the newly created input stream */ Common::SeekableReadStream *createReadStreamForMember(const Common::String &name) const; }and then registering each archive with the SearchManager like so:
// Search for .zfs archive files Common::ArchiveMemberList list; SearchMan.listMatchingMembers(list, "*.zfs"); // Register the files within the zfs archive files with the SearchMan for (Common::ArchiveMemberList::iterator iter = list.begin(); iter != list.end(); ++iter) { Common::String name = (*iter)->getName(); ZfsArchive *archive = new ZfsArchive(name, (*iter)->createReadStream()); SearchMan.add(name, archive); }
In summary, git can be complicated, but it has a wealth of potential and is extremely powereful. Also, the ScummVM Common classes are absolutely fantastic and make the lives of engine developers sooooo much easier. A toast to the wonderful people who developed them. Well, that's all for now.
So until next time, happy coding. :)

Focusing on the negative effects indoor tanning can have on appearance appears to reduce indoor tanning behavior, even among young women who report that they tan to relax or alleviate seasonal mood disorders, according to a report in Archives of Dermatology, one of the JAMA/Archives journals.
Young people who use tanning beds may be at risk of melanoma and other skin cancers, according to background information in the article. Interventions to reduce skin cancer risk often focus on motivational techniques to reduce tanning and other risky behaviors, such as not using sunscreen. "For example, it might be expected that a health-based intervention would work best for individuals who exhibit strong health-related motivations, while an appearance-focused intervention would be recommended for individuals primarily motivated by appearance concerns," the authors write.
Joel Hillhouse, Ph.D., of East Tennessee State University, Johnson City, and colleagues studied 430 adult female indoor tanners on one college campus. A total of 200 were randomly assigned to receive a booklet that included information about the history and current sociocultural context of tanning, along with the potentially damaging effects of tanning on the skin. The booklet also gave recommendations for reducing indoor tanning and offered healthier options to enhance appearance, including exercise, choosing fashion that does not require a tan or using sunless tanning products. The other 230 did not receive the booklet.
All participants were assessed for seasonal affective disorder and four pathological tanning motives: the feeling that one's tanning is out of control; evidence of tolerance to the effects of tanning; the belief that one's natural skin tone is unattractive and unappealing; or opiate-like reactions to tanning.
Tanning frequency was re-assessed six months after distributing the booklet. Overall, the booklet reduced tanning behaviors, even for participants who reported a pathological motive for tanning. "In other words, providing young patients who tan with information on the damaging effects of tanning on their appearance is effective even if they are addicted to tanning or using it to ameliorate depression symptoms," the authors write.
Tanners with pathological motives may also care about their appearance, the authors note. In addition, the appearance-focused booklet may have had unintended effects on non-appearance motivations. For instance, those who tan to relax or relieve stress may have become more anxious after reading about the potential harms of tanning.
"Emphasizing the appearance-damaging effects of UV light, both indoor and outdoor, to young patients who are tanning is important no matter what their pathological tanning behavior status," the authors conclude. "Still, tailored interventions may be able to better address some individual motivations for tanning and their relation to psychopathology. The best methods for delivering these powerful messages and for matching message communication to individual preferences remain to be explored so that this promising intervention approach to skin cancer prevention can have a wider impact across varied settings."

Believe it or not, but those unappetizing flat little discs in the picture were supposed to be chocolate meringues. They certainly didn't go into the oven looking like that. In fact, before dessicating to shrunken circles of nothingness, they looked just perfect. My egg whites had whipped up all nicely and I piped some beautiful, poofy pillows of meringue onto my parchment paper. But about halfway through the baking time, I noticed that they looked considerably smaller. And a little later, they looked smaller still and I started to despair. By the time I took them out of the oven, they were practically gone, although what remains of them looks remarkably like teeny tiny cow patties. Anyone have a miniature model farm in need of some realistic-looking miniature cow patties?
This is my second attempt at low carb meringues and my second failure. I have a few theories about what might have gone wrong this time, but I couldn't muster up the energy to try another batch. All in all, I thought the whole thing quite hilarious. I was only despairing because, after a weekend away from my kitchen, I have no new recipes to share with you. I was ahead there for a bit, with more recipes than I had time to post, but a busy week and a trip up to my sister-in-law's have used up all my reserves. I was so certain this would be a great recipe, I was going to dip the bottoms of the meringues in mint-chocolate ganache. But making meringues without sugar is considerably harder than it looks. I will try again, someday. In the meantime, all is not lost. My baby, the pickiest eater in the world, loves the darn things and is happy to gobble them all up. She is blissfully unaware of any resemblence to cow patties.
And I have a lovely giveaway for you. You might remember that back in December I won several giveaways, one of which was a set of beautiful pewter measuring spoons from Crosby and Taylor. They are so lovely, I have to talk myself into baking with them, they almost seem to nice for it. Well, after seeing me mention them in my blog, the good folks at Crosby and Taylor asked if I would like to do a giveaway as well. I had my choice of beautiful items to review and giveaway and I chose the lovely petit salt pots. We were actually in need of a salt pot, as our kosher salt was just sitting in an open dish by the stove. Now it's in a gorgeous green ceramic pot with an intricate pewter spoon and I somehow feel like a better cook for it!
I am thrilled to tell you that I have two of these beautiful pots to give away. One from their Vineyard line in Pistachio and the other is from their new Heart line in Buttercream (just in time for Valentine's Day!). Both are just beautiful and will certainly brighten your kitchen or table setting.
To Enter (US and Canadian addresses only, please!) –
1. Leave a comment here, telling me what kind of salt you would keep in your petit ceramic salt pot.
2. Retweet this giveaway with @dreamaboutfood and @crosbyandtaylor and let me know that you did so.
3. Follow me on twitter and let me know that you did so.
4. Visit the Crosby and Taylor website and tell me which of their beautiful lines of pewter and ceramics you like best.
5. Follow Crosby and Taylor on Twitter and let me know that you did so.
6. Like Crosby and Taylor on Facebook and let me know that you did so.
Each comment will count as a separate entry, so you have 6 chances to win! Contest will run from now until Friday, February 4th at midnight and there will be two separate winners. Be sure to leave me a way to contact you with your entries, I've had some trouble with that in the past.
Good luck! I know you will love these as much as I do.

New Biosurfactants of Culture Pseudomonas Aureofaciens NB-1
Background. Important problems of technologies of biosurfactants production are the search for active strain-producers, optimization of their biosynthesis, as well as elaboration of effective methods of biosurfactants isolation from cultural liquid after fermentation.
Objective. The influence of extractants to release surfactant lipids from the supernatant of cultural liquid of the strain P. aureofaciens NB-1 and investigation of their ability to use for protection of the steel against corrosion.
Methods. Surfactants were isolated by extraction of various solvents and their mixtures, their composition and weight were analyzed. The effectiveness of corrosion inhibition was analyzed by corrosion rate of steel plates.
Results. Microorganisms of strain P. aureofaciens NB-1 synthesize extracellular biosurfactants of rhamnolipid and lipopeptid nature. It was shown that at pH 11, biosurfactants yield using ethylacetate and isopropanol (2:1) was 3.71 g/L, exceeding their output at pH 3 to 54 %. The efficacy of using the supernatant of cultural liquid P. aureofaciens NB-1 (dilution 1:10) for corrosion protection of St3 steel in aggressive medium was shown.
Conclusions. The methods of optimal isolation of surfactant of P. aureofaciens NB-1by the selection solvents and control of pH indicators were elaborated. As a result the synthesis parameters were significantly increased. It was shown that obtained product is perspective as inhibitor of metal corrosion.

MG Age 1 Normal Ver. Ka
Alright knocked another one off of the backlog.
Like the Mg Heavyarms and MG Sinanju, this kit had been languishing in WIP hell because I lost a part, then gginfinite decided to cancel my parts order 3+ months after I placed it...
It's all good now though, because I'm done!
The Age 1 is of course modeled after the Grand-daddy of them all, so I used the water slide set from the Rx 78-2 Ver. Ka to keep with that design. I only wish I had though to design Diva and EFF decals for the shoulders and knees like the original ver. Ka.
I really enjoyed this kit because of the crazy pose-ability it possesses, even if these poses look ridiculous, it's nice it can still pull them off.

Hello all!
As some of you may know, Jeff Swingle and I have been working on a top-secret project for the last few months, and it's finally time to announce it to the world and open the doors for auditions!
PROJECT ESPER is a fully licensed Musical Theatre/Audio Drama adaptation of the beloved JRPG Final Fantasy VI (or III, if you're in the US) 😉 being produced in conjunction with the Materia Collective.
Here are a few collaborations between myself and Jeff that informed our vision for the project:
"Ovelia & Delita" (from Final Fantasy: Tactics)
"L'Histoire d'un Mercenaire" (from Final Fantasy: Tactics)
We're gearing up to launch our Kickstarter (yes, this will be a paid gig once it's funded!) and, as such, we're looking for anyone interested in submitting auditions for the multitude of colorful heroes and villains of the Final Fantasy VI universe.
This audition process will focus on Voice Acting and Singing, and is open to EVERYONE, not just members of the Materia Collective. (The only hard and fast requirement is that auditionees need to be able to record their own vocal performances.)
Auditions run until Midnight PST, June 4th.
Please feel free to share this, and good luck!

The video (which was produced by Philanthropy Reports) presents a very broad picture of the nonprofit sector, which I felt was not as inspiring as the music that went along with it. Phil Buchanan at the Center for Effective Philanthropy blogged about the video, saying it could help address the issue of the greater public's "ignorance of the nonprofit sector," but I do not see any real value in an education of the greater public on how many people are employed by one type of organizational structure. A similar movie could be made about the for-profit sector, or the governmental sector, which would most likely be very boring or very funny, depending on who made it.
Many times, I talk with people who clearly conflate the nonprofit sector with "doing good things" or "saving the world." As this video makes clear (although I doubt that was its intention), there are many nonprofits out there doing very bad things. It states that the sector is diverse, and covers organizations from the Sierra Club to the NRA. I personally think (but know there are those who disagree) that the NRA is one of the worst organizations in this country doing things that are fundamentally against social progress on many different levels. However, the head of the NRA and I are both included in the statistic that states "one in ten people work for the nonprofit sector." I do not like to be grouped-in with anyone who works for the NRA.
I will tell another story to illustrate my point: When I was job searching, I scoured job postings daily on Idealist.org like they were my ticket to salvation. (And judging the current state of the economy, they turned out to be just that.) I came across one posting for an editor position at a magazine dedicated to the promotion and well-being of cats.
Again, for emphasis: Cats.
My friends and I talk a lot about selling out, and when I saw that job posting online, I knew if I applied to it, I would officially be a sell out. But, that magazine was a nonprofit and it could post on Idealist. Working for that organization, I would have felt like more of a drain on society than at most corporations. Especially since I would probably have been able to make more in the corporate world and then donate more to charity.
My point is to not argue about which nonprofits are doing "good" or "bad" or "nothing at all," but to show that there is nothing special about the nonprofit sector. Do not limit yourself to thinking that only nonprofits can do good. At this place in time in our history, I feel like the nonprofit structure is the easiest organizational type to use if you want to create social change, but others are quickly adapting. (If you want to learn more about an interesting cross section of this transition, check out recent developments at Unitus and SKS. A good summary and analysis is here.) Even consumer goods manufacturers can be creating social change.
If you are looking to "change the world," nonprofits are only one option in your organization toolkit. Don't limit yourself to thinking they are the only thing in there. As I've said before, they are typically the most adaptable organizations working on the ground to solve problems and tend to be at the front of social issues, but there is nothing inherent in the tax structure that makes them better at working for social change than another type of incorporated organization. This is not a particularly profound conclusion to draw, but an important one to keep in mind.

The impacts of the Thailand-Australia Free Trade Agreement and Thailand-New Zealand Closer Economic Partnership on Thai Dairy Import Prices
This study investigates the impacts of the Thailand–Australia Free Trade Agreement and Thailand–New Zealand Closer Economic Partnership on Thailand's dairy import prices. The study employs an import price model to examine the effects of a reduction in Thai tariffs for Australian and New Zealand dairy products on their prices. Empirical results show that the effects of a reduction in tariffs for Australian and New Zealand dairy products on Thai import prices of dairy products from both countries are small. Other factors such as exchange rates, competitor prices, and drought have significantly larger effects. Surprisingly, the effect of import tariffs on Thai import prices for Australian and New Zealand dairy products are negative. This indicates that a tariff reduction by Thailand increases Australian and New Zealand exporters' markups and raises Thai import prices for Australian and New Zealand dairy products. This is because import demand for dairy products in Thailand is inelastic. Thus, Australian and New Zealand exporters do not need to raise prices, because a tariff reduction effectively increases profit without any effort on the exporter's part.... [Show full abstract]

Britain has taken great strides towards ensuring equality of opportunity, freedom from discrimination and the protection of fundamental rights. But as we know, society is rapidly evolving, and in ways that affect different groups in different ways.
A report from the most comprehensive review ever carried out on progress towards greater equality and human rights protection in Britain has now been published by the Equality and Human Rights Commission. 'Is Britain Fairer?' reveals that while for many life has become fairer over the past five years, for others progress has stalled, and for some– in particular young people and poor White boys – life on many fronts has got worse.
'Is Britain Fairer?' draws on a wide range of major datasets and the Commission's own analysis to reveal how, as the country becomes more ethnically and religiously diverse than at any point in its history, new complexities mean many existing assumptions about which of us encounter greater challenges may no longer hold to be true.
It shows which people were 'winners' and 'losers' in the five years since the Commission published its first review, but also how socio-economic status, age, ethnicity and other factors impact on experiences and outcomes for different groups of people at different stages of life.
Laura Carstensen, EHRC Commissioner said:
"All our main political parties have put achieving greater equality and fairness at the heart of their agendas for the next five years. This wide-ranging, evidence-based review demonstrates how, while the British people demand a fairer society where everybody has an equal opportunity to make the best of their lives, whatever their background, our achievements still lag behind our aspirations in some areas.
"While we have made important progress in many areas – and it is important to note and celebrate this - the gateways to opportunity that the Commission identified five years ago remain harder to pass through for some groups such as disabled people, those from poorer backgrounds and women over a certain age.
"It's great to see the barriers being lowered over the last five years for some people: but during the same period they've been raised higher for younger people in particular. Theirs are the shoulders on which the country will rely to provide for a rapidly ageing population, yet they have the worst economic prospects for several generations."

A Level 8 Adventure for DCC RPG
Now includes bonus content not in the original printing!
Giants stalk the shifting sands as the lost city of Stylos awakens from its deathless slumber. The Fourth Age of Man is at hand! All that stands between the gigantic hordes of Stylos and their conquest of the world is your band of adventurers. Sinister traps, implacable foes, and the crushing tread of the dread Colossus all lurk within these pages, eager to test the courage and cunning of even the most accomplished adventurers.
- Tenkar's Tavern: "This is a bit of a thinking player's type of adventure, because when you think about it, the usual method of sword and spell is probably not the most effective manner to take down a 300′ tall undead titan. I like adventures that make you think. No worries, still plentyof other stuff to kill or be killed by."
- RPGNow fan review: "Subtlety this ain't, but the previous DCC adventures should have told you that. Instead, DCC presents us yet another momentous world-shattering epic adventure that should keep your players busy. Or, at least, very very dead."

Samsung has announced another new Android handset, this one destined to stay back home in South Korea.  Like most everything else we've seen from the handset maker, it's a touch-only phone. Dubbed the SHW-M100S, this marks the first Android 2.1 to come from Samsung.Â
The specs are right in line with other recent Android handsets. It features a 3.7-inch AMOLED display, 5 megapixel camera with 720p support, WiFi (802.11n), GPS, T-DMB, DivX support, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. There's an 800MHz processor under the hood and the UI is a new version of TouchWiz. Based on the few pictures we've seen so far, we're fans of the evolved interface. There's no sign of any silly 'cubes' to be found!
Pricing has not been determined as of yet. Look for the M100S next month (March) on SK Telecom.

Gove attacks dominance of UK's private school elite
Michael Gove attacked the dominance of a private school elite in Britain's top institutions, calling on business leaders to stop criticising the state system but to get behind his academy programme to stop the situation getting worse.
The Education Secretary said a left-wing intellectual elite in academia, which he dubbed the "blob", and the protectionist instincts of the teaching unions were preventing the innovation of Britain's education system. "I am the enemy of these forces," he vowed.
Speaking at The Times CEO Summit today he said: "You see it them at the BBC where the chairman of the BBC Trust and the Director General are public school boys; you'll see it at the Guardian where the leading columnists and the editor are public school; you

I celebrated eight years of marriage this past May and it made me look back at all the things we have been through together. It has very rarely been easy, but, more than anything, that has made me appreciate our union so much more. I was 20 years old when we wed and we had our first child the same year and it was a big whirlwind of crazy and magnificent. I was asked more than once why I was rushing it and my response was, why not? I was young and in love and I knew what I wanted and I haven't looked back since.
So what have I learned in the last eight years? I've learned not to take time for granted. After 14 combined months of deployments, and a nightshift job, those stolen moments in the early mornings are the most important thing in the world. I've learned that neither of us are the same people that we were in the beginning, and it's always exciting to fall in love again with new versions of ourselves. I've learned to communicate and trust because at the end of the day, he's the one that is there to catch me when I fall, and it's so much easier to get back up when you have a helping hand. I've learned that nothing is more attractive to me than watching my husband play with our beautiful children. I've learned to love myself again because he loves me and he shows me everyday.
We had a rough start, and it still isn't always easy, but there is not one single person I would rather journey through life with. Just remember, everything is more satisfying the harder you work for it.

Peter T. Wolczanski obtained his B.S. in Chemistry at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1976. There he helped Prof. Mark S. Wrighton initiate studies on the photoelectrolysis of H2O with TiO2 and SrTiO2 photoelectrodes. Despite a mediocre GPA, his undergraduate research and some temperance led to matriculation at the California Institute of Technology, where he was a Fluor Fellow in Prof. John E. Bercaw's group. Investigation of zirconium hydrides, and the reduction of CO and related molecules ensued, leading to his Ph.D. in 1981, and honors as a McKoy Award winner. After a 2 month postdoctoral stint with Dr. William P. Schaefer at Caltech, designed to permit participation in one last backpacking trip, he became an Assistant Professor at Cornell University.
Professor Wolczanski's research interests have included the synthesis and reactivity of early transition metal complexes with small molecules, such as dioxygen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, methane, and hydrocarbons, and the generation of solid state and polymeric inorganic materials from molecular precursors. Studies continue to emphasize the reactivity of low coordinate molecules in bond activations, but interests in metal-metal bonding, the consequences of aggregation, and the influences of electronic states on chemical reactivity have surfaced. His main focus concerns generating strong field and redox non-innocent environments for 1st-row transition metals in an effort to broaden their scope in numerous stoichiometric and catalytic transformations; this includes a quest for metathesis active iron alkylidenes. He has also invented Charge Distribution Via Reporters (CDVR), a benchtop methodology used to determine charge variance in transition metal complexes.
Professor Wolczanski is an Alfred P. Sloan Fellow, an American Academy of Arts & Sciences Fellow, recipient of the 2011 ACS Award in Organometallic Chemistry, and the George W. & Grace L. Todd Professor of Chemistry & Chemical Biology at Cornell. He was the chair of the Organometallics Gordon Research Conference in 2002, and has served on the Organometallics and Inorganic Chemistry advisory boards.
He married Elizabeth A. Wood in June of 1993, and lives with her in a wooded area, where they fight a never-ending battle against the evil forces of nature (i.e., critters & weeds). Meanwhile, their 22-year old son Alex battles his way through life, and 20-year old daughter Grace stresses at Carnegie Mellon University. Occasionally PTW escapes to the golf course, inducing further stress in this ulterior quest for perfection, now that the triple bypass allows him to do so. Usually this is followed by an attack on his wine cellar in order to lower his score. In the winter he can often be found in some frigid building helping coach the Tompkins Girls Hockey Association 16U team, after shepherding Alex and Grace through years of youth hockey.

The question always comes up in conversation; do you belong to a Bass fishing Club? When answering, the responses are generally mixed. Whether you are a novice angler or an advanced angler don't discount the fact that many of the top pro's today once got their start fishing with a club and some still are affiliated with them today.
I've been involved in the sport since the mid 70's and first got my experience bass fishing from the back of the boat fishing with a club. I still remember my first experience fishing out of a 70's model 16' Monarch Bass Boat. It was a small 12 boat tournament on Lake Don Pedro, and I remember myself and my boater each caught a limit that day using 6" red ring worms by Mann's. My limit gave me 2nd place and a trophy and a small check that I used to help upgrade my gear and buy more tackle. I remember after that experience, I was hooked into the sport from that day forward. I spend my Friday nights and Saturday's on the water instead of at the movies or parties like many others my age. I remained in the club for 3 years before my job took me a far. Even though I didn't have a boat at the time, tournament circuits back in the late 70's and early 80's still offered draw tournaments with the opportunity to fish as a non-boater. But, as year's passed many tournament circuits begin to transition into a team circuit format, and I begin to look again for a club to remain active in the sport. Realizing you need to have a good partnership to fish as a team, I begin to look at a club to gain more than just a fishing partner on weekends and tournaments.
In the late 80's, with my working career in full swing, family and home responsibilities, I sought out for another club. Still with no boat at the time, I realized finding a strong partner to fish regularly who had a boat was key to keep myself active in the sport I desired and passionate second to my wife and family. I ended up finding a start-up club mainly with adults that had careers, family much in the same situation like me. The club small at the time grew from as few as 15 members to as many 75 at one point. The club had monthly tournaments which began with as little as 8 teams and grew to as many as 15-20 teams. Many of the members also fished other team format circuits outside the club. But, as the club evolved so did the anglers, the vast personalities, and the difficulties of running the club at a level to please every member. Over the years, many members left to pursue the next level, and others do to the political agendas or the diverse personalities which came along with the transition. However, what wasn't lost were the friendships and the fishing family many of us gathered over the years that still exist today.
In the early 90's I finally purchased my first boat and began fishing both club tournaments and team tournaments regularly again. I used the club to learn and share information to help me succeed in local team tournament events. Many of my yearly partners and my existing partners today came from the club level. Since the club I help found in the late 80's, I have rotated in and out. It's been over 30 years since my first membership dues were paid in the club, but I still renew my membership each year. I renew my membership for fellowship today from the friendships I found and I still find new friends from time to time from the new members coming and going. What hasn't been lost in the club is the common foundation to try to keep it healthy for the common wealth of the active members.
I don't believe a club is for everyone. It involves leadership and often leadership that are not often appreciated with the devotion necessary required to put into it. A club with any size, the leaders must deal with a diverse set of personalities from members that often don't agree. A club also has a wide range of experience levels from individuals just starting in the sport to advanced and pro anglers. In addition, competition at any level can bring out the worst and the best of an individual. However, looking back today, what I gained from the club was not my fishing experience but the many friends I call part of my family. Today many have moved away and others have stayed in contact and we still share emails, dinner, attend functions outside of fishing. When we enter local tournaments against one another we share information to help us all succeed.
I can't tell you if a club is right for you. But, before you say yes or no, research the clubs carefully to find what the club is offering to you and what you can offer the club, not what the club can do for you. Try contacting a pro on Facebook and find out how they got involved in the sport. You may or may not be surprised.
Happy fishing and keep your line tight.

Here's my pick of the top ten remaining films left in 2013. Now I'm using the English release dates to form my list, so there's is no 'Wolf on Wall Street' or 'Under the Skin' on here, as much as I'm really looking forward to both of those movies! In fact (just as an aside) they, along with several others on this list, are currently sitting tucked away at the bottom right hand side of my blog in a new 'What I'm Looking Forward to' section. I just want to give a shout out to a couple of great blogs which I have essentially ripped that idea from, and that's Mettel Ray Movie Blog and Cinematic Corner, please check them both out if you haven't already, they're excellent.
Anyway, let's move onto the list!
10. Carrie – Despite the fact that it feels like a pointless remake of the classic De Palma movie, I'm still interested in Carrie as it stars my favourite actress Julianne Moore and the very promising talent Chloë Grace Moretz. No matter how good or bad the film turns out to be, I'm hoping that this pairing will be worth checking out!
9. Gravity – I've finally given into the buzzing anticipation for Gravity. I'm not the world's biggest fan of Children of Men, and that fact combined with the trailer not doing too much for me meant that I was left cold for a while. But it does seem that this will be at least visually spectacular, and with James Cameron recently heaping praise upon the film, I'm now ready to believe that it may turn out to be quite special.
8. Filth – James McAvoy seems to have thrown himself into the role of a bipolar junkie law enforcer judging by the trailer, and it should be interesting to see just how an intense a performance he gives. Aside from that though, we have Eddie Marsan and Shirley Henderson in supporting roles which is very exciting, and the film is an adaptation of an a Irvine Welsh (Trainspotting) novel. So altogether there's a lot of promise for this one.
7. Philomena – Steve Coogan plays a journalist who winds up writing a human interest story, it's about a woman who is searching for her son after he was taken from her years ago when she was then forced to live in a convent. Judi Dench plays said woman, and although the film's trailer seems a touch too lighthearted, we all know how talented Dench is, and I have a suspicion that she will be excellent in this role and could be fairly heartbreaking.
6. Short Term 12 – Brie Larson stars in this film as a staff member at a foster care facility, and judging by several reviews it seems that she is pretty fantastic in it. Also it promises to be an emotionally charged, quietly affecting story, with an number of solid supporting performances. It's fair to say that I've gotten my hopes raised pretty high for this one.
5. The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug – As flawed and somewhat disappointing as the first film was, I have to say that I still did have a good time with it in the cinema. Now I'm hoping that with the groundwork set, this movie can raise its game and eclipse the first both in terms of intensity and heart. I still have my reservations, but there's no doubt that I'm really looking forward to seeing The Desolation of Smaug this December!
4. Pieta – This Korean film has just been released a few days ago in England and I'm very much hoping that I get the opportunity to see it. It's about a ruthless, violent, and powerful loan shark who encounters a woman who claims to be his long lost mother. The film is supposed to be powerful and daring, and it in fact won the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival. However it turns out, I imagine that it will be pretty different to Philomena's tale of a long lost mother!
3. Don Jon – Written and directed by Joseph Gordon-Levitt, who then has gone on to star in the film as well, Don Jon is a film about a guy who only cares about a few things in his life, and one of those is porn. It has shaped his expectations of life and he has to overcome those when he meets and falls for his potential true love. It promises to be a sharp and intelligent film, and has supporting performances by Scarlett Johansson and Julianne Moore – what's not to like?
2. American Hustle – An excellent cast comprised of Christian Bale, Amy Adams, Bradley Cooper, Robert De Niro, Jennifer Lawrence and Jeremy Renner make this film about con artists, mobsters and politicians a must see. Then throw in the fact that director David O. Russell has directed most of his primary cast in Oscar nominated/wining performances in the past, and this one looks set to be excellent.
1. The Counselor – Cormac McCarthy (novels: No Country for Old Men, The Road) has written the script, Ridley Scott is directing, and the cast includes Javier Bardem, Michael Fassbender, Penelope Cruz, Brad Pitt and Cameron Diaz – on that basis alone this film looks incredibly exciting. That's one impressive cast, but both Bardem and Fassbender rank amongst my very favourite actors working today, and so the fact that they are acting opposite one another is enough to draw me into a cinema seat.
Thanks for reading! Let me know what you think of my list in the comment box below, what are you anticipating?

BMoore Finest (Baltimore) and their 11U team battled to the end of the AGame Super Shootout tournament where they faced a Northern New Jersey squad, 60 Elite. The game came down to the last minutes in overtime to determine a victor- making it one of the most exciting games of the weekend.
Both BMore's Finest and 60 Elite went undefeated throughout the two-day tournament. Although BMore's Finest had a small height advantage over 60 Elite, the skills, speed, patience and discipline were equally matched throughout the game. Finest came out stronger in the beginning of the game and collectively implemented a sound motion offense getting good looks at the basket. Strong defensive rebounding allowed BMore's Finest many transition opportunities on which they converted on most.
60 Elite initially struggled getting things going on the offensive end. Outside a drive and foul shot made by Corey Floyd, they couldn't seem to get shots to fall. Their shot selection was impulsive, leading them to missed attempts at the basket and placed their team in a rebounding disadvantage, as they were unprepared. Their performance on defense was consistent for the most part; however they could not contain the hot hand of BMore's Finest guard John Lamonthe who hit eight of the fourteen points in the first half. At the end of the first half, BMore's Finest was up 14-3.
The second half began with a hopeful group of spectators cheering on 60 Elite. The cheering didn't seem to faze Lamonthe as he continued to dominate the court adding several baskets driving the paint and drawing fouls. Jorace Walker, a forward for BMore's Finest was the tallest boy on the floor and maintained his presence as a dominant rebounder and passer from the post.
Though 60 Elite seemed deflated, Corey Floyd, forward for Elite played an excellent inside game. Guards, Mason Piorkowski and Nicholas Koch became more energetic and fed off the intensity of the crowd to begin what would be a much-needed offensive streak for 60 Elite. Floyd converted on six points within the first five minutes of the second half. The team seemed to gain momentum on offense and defense. They also limited the number of inside shots made by BMore's Lamonthe and forced them to shoot from the perimeter. This strategy slowly brought 60 Elite back into the game.
After Floyd took a charge at around the nine-minute mark, the players and spectators for 60 Elite were full of energy and excitement. The score at 9:26 was 16-18, BMore's Finest. Although BMore's Finest was still up by 2, 60 Elite held them to five points while on their 13-point streak. Coach Kyle Duffy for BMore's Finest called a timeout to regroup his team. Coach Mercedez Walker of 60 Elite used the time wisely as well and implemented a full court press. With the energy and intensity accumulated during their streak, the senses of all 60 Elite's players was heightened.
On BMore's first inbound play following the timeout, Piorkowski grabbed a steal and made a quick bounce pass to Floyd for an easy two. The second inbound play went similarly. Koch stole the ball before half court and dished it off to Piorkowski who nailed a 3. The crowd and the players went wild. Another timeout was called by BMore's Finest.
The score was close at 29-22, led by 60 Elite with 4:19 left in the game. After the timeout, BMore's Finest effectively beat 60 Elite's press. Lamonthe drove easily through the paint several times before 60 Elite decided to lift the press and shift into a 2:3 zone.
With 25.8 seconds left in the game, the score was 36-38, 60 Elite. Coach Kyle Duffy encouraged the team to foul to stop the clock. After several fouls, 60 Elite began shooting 1:1, missing one and making the other. With only seconds left to play, BMore's finest was down three. A timeout was called by Coach Walker to devise a defensive strategy. The last play inbounded to Jalen Franklin who quickly passed to Lamonthe who shot a three point shot over the head of 60 Elite's defense. Making the shot to put them into overtime at 42-42.
Overtime seemed to take a physical and mental toll on both teams, each struggled to get shots to fall. However, the steady hand of Walker and Lamonthe gave BMore's Finest the edge over 60 Elite with a final score of 49-44. Both teams showed a great effort. Walker dominated the boards for BMore's Finest pulling down four offensive rebounds during the second half. 60 Elite point guard Piorkowski nailed four threes in the second half. Floyd added six rebounds for 60 Elite and was the second leading scorer with 11 points. Piorkowski led 60 Elite with 14, Koch and forward Spencer Jordan each contributed 5 points.

Our Ego-Maniacal Behavior in Relation to Animals
We need to speak up that a huge part of awakening to this new consciousness is awakening to the Truth that we have no right, whatsoever, to own the lives of sentient animals of any species; human or nonhuman. As a humanity, we are faced with crisis and the need to radically change – first our perception and then our actions. A great part of humanity's out-of-control, ego-maniacal, unconscious behavior is in the believing that they have the right to inseminate, perpetually impregnate, and exploit the reproductive systems of enslaved fellow Earthlings. They torture, kill, eat and wear those they have persecuted, and without physical need to do this (as proven by the many long-time vegans around the globe!)
Great authors speak brilliantly of the human ego and the Great Awakening of Consciousness, but failed to include that being vegan is an essential component of consciousness-raising. It's the first step, and there is no way around it. There is a Great Awakening of consciousness beginning to occur on the planet. Many are waking up to the realization that no sentient being should be considered property status of another being. All of us have divine consciousness within us and should be treated as such. Many vegans were drawn to becoming vegan because of the cruelty shown to animals, as in factory farming, etc. I was not one of them. From an early age, after experiencing the consciousness of the family cat, I knew animals deserved respect, same as any other conscious being. It's no wonder that I grew up to be aligned with the vegan-abolitionist movement. I simply do not believe other animals are ours to use; to satisfy our unacceptable hedonism. Deriving pleasure from another's misery is a form of insanity.
In this Great Awakening of Consciousness, we will see that it is more valuable for us to spend our time educating others about veganism; rather than campaigns that target a single issue and may not get people to 'go vegan' or truly understand the vegan concept. In other words, an anti-fur campaign may get some to stop buying fur (for awhile) but they are still consuming other animal products. It seems more logical to share with others the Whole Truth; which is the Vegan Ethic. Non-violent vegan education along with some accelerated enthusiasm to create our Vegan World - is the most hopeful approach to gaining rights for animals and benefiting the 'Whole of Everything'. If it's about the 'cruelty shown' as opposed to the fact that we have no right to exploit and enslave others, you give people a way out. They may stop short of becoming vegan. They may instead choose to buy so-called "humanely-raised" animal products and think they are doing enough, when in fact, they are not.
Being vegan is, ethically, the very least each human can do as far as respecting others. There's really no time for 'baby steps' that some organizations applaud in institutionalized exploiters and in the general public. It has been said that when we are "Being" we are conscious, awake and out of our ego. They forgot the word 'vegan' after 'Being'. In "Being Vegan" - we awaken the stream of consciousness within. Being vegan, I am part of a movement that is greater than myself, and thus gives me a focus that helps me step out of my ego. Being vegan, I'm one step closer to breaking free of the grip of the ego.

I mostly enjoyed "A New Earth," but like you was struck by his glaring omission of any discussion of veganism. To me, it seems the ultimate egotism to believe that one's personal taste preferences are more important than an animal's right to live. I'm glad we have The World Peace Diet by Will Tuttle, which IMHO picks up the ball where Eckhart Tolle dropped it.

I'm very glad to have just found your blog. Looks like a lot of good reading here. I love Eckhart Tolle...discovered him before I learned about veganism, and I think he's one of the reasons I awakened to veganism. I, too, am disappointed that he didn't spell it out in his book, but he at least alluded to the need to stop using sentient beings. We're seeing the word more and more in mainstream writings, so there's hope. Thanks for all you're doing!!!

Lizzo gives critic 'the attention you ordered' after he says her popularity is due to 'obesity epidemic in America'
Lizzo is still riding high after her "Saturday Night Live" debut and she isn't going to let anyone bring her down. The "Good as Hell" singer clapped back at Dr. Boyce Atkins after his tweet about her popularity sparked an online debate. Atkins, an author, political analyst and social commentator, tweeted that the eight-time Grammy-nominated singer is only popular because of America's "obesity epidemic."

Last Friday was Relay For Life and it was just incredible. The weather was perfect which allowed for us to be outside at the high school track, camping overnight to ban together to Celebrate, Remember and Fight Back for all of those who have ever heard the words "You have cancer." So far, our event has raised over $75,000!
My family and I were just thrilled to see our mom walking the survivor lap again this year. She is doing so well compared to how last year started out. She walked the survivor lap, then the caregiver's lap with my dad and then the next lap when all participants walk together. That's 3/4 of a mile! Not bad for almost 77! She's always been a trooper, no matter what her attitude might have been during treatment.

Charlie entered the Ms. Relay pageant again this year. Unfortunately, he was not crowned the winner. Maybe the third time will be the charm?

Samantha Ronson has declared that she will marry Lindsay Lohan in the next six months. While spinning the disc at a top LA hotel, Samantha announced that she would marry her 'lover' by the end of this year.
"By the end of this year, my love will be Mrs Ronson, the Sun quoted her, as saying. "Tonight shows the power of a woman to underestimate that is to underestimate the world," she added.
The club's parlour singer Raymond revealed that Lohan and Ronson are totally loved up couple. "Samantha and Lindsay are the most in love Hollywood couple I've ever seen," Raymond said
