Jeb Bush has been out of the presidential race for almost two months, but Donald Trump apparently loves to lambast the former Florida governor. Lil' Jebbers was Trump's favorite target during the debates. The magnate seemed to relish metaphorically wrapping his stubby little digits around Bush's jowls any chance he could get.
Trump missed the prodding so much that last night at the New York State Republican Gala, he couldn't help but take a shot at Bush and his "low energy."
"You say, 'What are New York values?' Number one, honesty and straight talking. It's a work ethic, hard-working people. It's about family. New York — believe it — is about family. So important.
"It's the energy to get things done. Big energy. If Jeb Bush came here, I'm telling you, he'd have much more energy than he has right now. I'm telling you. He should move to New York, right?"
One can furiously tweet "LYIN' TED" only so many times before one has to mix it up with some of the greatest hits from the back catalog of insults.
But what's the implication here? That Miamians lack the energy of New Yorkers? Is Trump attacking Miami values?
Granted, New York is the city that never sleeps. Miami is the city that sleeps past noon.

If the high-energy rhythm isn't gonna get Bush in Miami, it's not gonna get him anywhere.

December 20, 2014: A few days ago, I was in Barnes and Nobles killing some time. I had been looking at some books about successful people (and what makes them successful) and moved on to the autobiographies when a man approached me, asking me if I had read one of the books I had just looked at. I told him I hadn't read the book but it looked interesting. Apparently, I just became his new best friend. He found a willing listener and he proceeded to tell me all kinds of things that people should know, but probably don't think much about.
I was actually rather struck by the conversation because everything he was saying applied to things I want to do online with a website. For instance, he mentioned that most people can't decide what they are most passionate about. They think they are passionate about this or that, until they have to do the work, realize it's not easy to do, then give up. He doesn't think they are very passionate about that subject then.
Instantly, my brain started thinking about this website, TheWaterSkier. I've owned this site for several years. When I first launched back in 2010, I was so ecstatic to finally have a presence online and the ability to talk about a subject I really, really enjoy. Within a few months, I had my first comments and thought, hooray, I am figuring out how to do this! However shortly after, I ran into problems with spammers on the site, leaving stupid comments that weren't relevant and most likely from "bots" and not real people. Every day I was getting an email from my site telling me I had a new comment, but when I went to check it out, it was just a link to "buy watches on this site" or, sigh "Viagra". Apparently, the bots of the internet found my site and decided to go to town with spam.
I decided to pull the plug and kill the site until I had more time to come back and write about the topics I know the most about. I went out to learn more about building a website that would help me prevent this sort of spam in the future and truly create a fun place for 1) waterskiers to read about my adventures and 2) share their own commentary based off my articles.
Unfortunately for me, I actually enjoy several things besides waterskiing and those other topics distracted me from this site for a longer period of time than I anticipated. I spent time on SlenderSafari, my weight loss podcast, for over a year. I was trying to figure out how to build out AdoptACuddle, a website devoted to helping stray animals find homes (which I never built, other than a couple of articles). Then TheHorsePlace, all things related to horses and PrettyCowgirl, my website for women who like western clothing and want help finding new things to wear. And because I thought TheWaterSkier was such a great idea, I created TheLakeToys and TheWakeBoarder and realized I was spread too thin and not accomplishing a single thing. (Apparently this is common problem amongst business bloggers who really want to have a presence online – we are scattered-brained at times).
For the past 6 months, I've been soul searching and thinking about what matters to me, what am I REALLY passionate about? What captures my attention at a moments notice and distracts me from the rest of life? What takes the priority in all of my likes? I think that's why the conversation that this stranger was having with me, really struck a chord in me. I felt like in some ways he was saying "Shey, you love water skiing, why don't you follow your passion and start writing about what you love?" (Turns out he is a writer and has 5 or 6 eBooks he's trying to get published. He's a retired marine and has lots of great ideas that should be shared).
Now I'm back on TheWaterSkier and working diligently on my site, trying to update my old content and create many more posts that reflect my life on a lake. Sometimes it's adventures from my past at the Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri. Other times, it will be about my ski club or just about my family and our daily fun when we take our boat to a local lake and ski after work.
I'm constantly looking at videos and images that I admire and I hope to share my thoughts about what I see from time to time. Along with waterskiing, I love our boat. It's an older Mastercraft Prostar but I'm very happy with it and I will be talking about boat maintenance and repairs, as well as a few tricks I've learned pulling skiers.
If you noticed the picture of me for this post (see above), you will see I have a pink and white towel in my lap, wearing a sweatshirt hoodie and my wet hair is in my face. That picture was taken while we were doing some testing on our boat Memorial day weekend at Pomona Lake in Kansas. It was cold and rainy, but the smile on my face shows that I'm loving what we're doing! I love the lake, I love the water and I love water skiing! (Apparently I love it enough to want to waterski on New Year's Day, in a ripped up dry suit, no less!)
I hope my site inspires you to keep skiing and love the lake as much as I do and I hope my passion shows through to you!!

Posted in Nov 2008...
I'm not in the least bit superstitious. I purposely walk under ladders, I make black cats run cross the road in front of me. Hell, I have been trying to break mirrors since i was born, and i want my two dollar bills without the edges cut off. I will not pick pins, neither will I sit on my luggage before traveling. Russians are wired anyway, why should I care about sitting on my luggage? And in a typical stereotype, I might be smuggling my relative to whatever country I'm going to. It's hard enough that they have to travel in the luggage compartment (or whatever fancy name they have for that hold in a plane), without me having to sit on them!
But I traveled on Tuesday night, and i did not sit on my luggage. Partly because it was just ONE backpack, and I'm not into molesting backpacks. Little did I know what I was about to enter. Not twilight Zone. Things move way too nicely there I tell yah! I left DVP at the get-away resort and came back to work on Thursday morning. (Oh yeah, you don't know that he is in Kenya. Well, now you do. A story for another day). Where was I? Oh yeah, I came back to work. Finally, after months and months of editing, the 'TV Ad that is a movie', it was time to run transmission copies. I made up my mind a long time ago that i will not learn how to edit... ever. And i will rely on my boss to do it ...and the interns. As luck would have it, my boss is off filming Gorillas in Rwanda. I did not need him, I thought.
At around noon, i send one of the interns to have the TX (transmission copy) put on a Betacam format - which is what is required to send to a TV station. Once he leaves the office, I figure that that is out of my hands and it should be done soon, give or take an hour. So I blissfully go on with my work, until at 2 pm, it dawns on me that the the guy i sent is yet to communicate! So i frantically call him and what do you know, they have not even started work on my TX! Now, i think i should point out that we promised client they will have it ready by 4.pm. A raise a little hell, a baby hell to be precise and they start working on it. 2 hours later, the TX is done. But what do you know? It can't play back well. The colour correction is all wrong. So, it's time to deliver to client, and i have nothing!! So i call client and try a little bit of damage control. Wonder why it's called 'control' when it already happened! Client agrees with the option of putting the TX on DV Cam tape, and i cross my fingers, hoping that works. It does but we have to beat the traffic to the clients office. Meanwhile, I'm trying to get the TX done on Beta at some other place. My other boss even offers to drive me there. I get there and all excited that I can still deliver what clients wants...NOT! The DVD i went with wont open!!! So I call my other boss in Rwanda for some troubleshooting. I'm on phone with him getting instructions, and relaying the same instructions to another intern in our edit suite - on phone. Yes. I'm on two phones at the same time. Glad I was not driving! Since the DVD has refused to playback, we figure than maybe i should go back with a Mini DV tape. Which is why I'm on two phones.
I get back to my office and rush to the edit suite. All the instructions i had been giving on phone did not work, so i decide to do it myself. So there I am.. lost in an edit suite...only to finally figure out, 1 hour later that one of cables have a problem.
Meanwhile, DVP and I were supposed to have an interview with MNET Africa and they wanted to do a recce of my house. We had agreed that they could pick me from the office at 5 pm, since i did not anticipate to be in the office long. Since they were in the neighbourhood, they thought it a good idea to pick me at 4.30pm. Wrong move! It was now 6 pm, and they were still parked outside my office, watching me making the runarounds like a headless chicken. What imagery!
Then, as if there could not be a better time in the world, it starts to rain. I'm worrying about my laundry that has been in the hanging lines since Tuesday then remember that even DVP is not sheltered. When i left him at the getaway place, i accidentally left with his phone! He could not call me to check what time I'll be home and he had no spare keys to let himself in. By the way, I did not have the keys on me. I had left the painters doing their thing in my living room, what with the aftermath of the partying Gothic, which by the way, has been on the local news way too much. I had asked the caretaker to give the keys to the night guard who should give the same to DVP when he lets him in. I make it clear that i do not have another set of keys, neither does DVP, and insist on the importance of giving the key to the guard. So i stopped worrying about that, knowing that it has sunk in. It becomes apparent that i will not deliver the TX to my client, because by the time i figure out that i should carry our whole edit suite to the other company, it's about 8.pm, far too late! So i have to make that call of shame. But the idea to give her the DV Cam tapes was a good one since that worked. It's now 9 pm and i just want to go home. I call my taxi guy who tells me that he is closed for the day. WHAT? He promises to call another one for me. Oh, by now, the MNET Africa guys who were to drive me home have left. They decided to wait for me in my neighbourhood. The replacement taxi guy is not available, so have to look for another one. Finally arrives to pick me up at 10.00 pm. I get home. I ask the night guard for the key. He says don't have it. He has a phone number though. Great, I can open my house with a phone number! I call the caretaker who tells me that he thought it was not safe to leave the keys with the guard, so he left with them. I breathe in.. deeply. That chill you felt was me breathing in very very deeply. Calmly, I ask him to bring me the keys. He says he is too far gone and cannot come back. I'm amazed at how calm i still remained. Must be all the air i sucked in! Finally he agrees to come back. 30 minutes later, he arrives. MNET crew recce's my house, decides it's fit for the interview, meanwhile, DVP is fishily drunk. He has been at the bar since 3pm.. waiting on me to come home. Poor man.
To crown it all, i had stolen 45 minutes of my 1 hour lunch to make my hair. I finally decided to change from my dreadlocks to braids. Normally, this process takes 2 hours. I had about 7 (seven) women working on my hair. The result was my hair being done in 45 minutes, and my scalp feeling only what i can only assume the soil feels during the California fires.
I did not sleep. My head was on fire.
Perfect end to my day!
This is why I will be sitting on my luggage from now henceforth!
They do sit on luggage here too!

My first skein!?
I am not really sure if this can be called a skein or not. I spun the burgundy color first, then random natural dark wools. I got them all free, so not clear what type of wool anything is. By the time I got to the natural dark brown, I was much better. I would not use the term good yet, but I did not split the end of the spun ply as much, and it was not as bulky as the first set. Consequently, I have much more yardage of the brown. I did ply them together, and seemed to get the hang of it. I do not have a knitty-knotty so I used my swift to wind it together. I think that I have about 60 yards. What would that be enough for?

Review: Madrid Nessie downhill skateboard deck
Madrid has been at the drawing board once again and this time they've come up with a big hill freeride and back alley shredder deck as a part of their Madrid Mountain Legends line. The Madrid Nessie takes your standard downhill board with a kicktail and adds a bit of extra flare into the mix. The board is 38.25" long by 9.5" wide with a fairly square profile that comes to a blunt tip at the nose. Some of the fancy bits include CNC wheel wells and flush mount, wheel well flares, 3/4" of rocker, "power orbs" which I'll explain in a second, a kicktail, two wheelbase options (23.5" to 24.5") and a burly construction of 8 ply maple with a glossy formica top.
The concave on this deck is unlike anything I've really seen to date. The most prominent feature is the "power orbs." It is essentially an abbreviated W-concave at the front and back of the board that lines up directly with the instep of your foot. They seem pretty small, but they play an important role in keeping your feet locked in. With the front of my foot pushed up against the wheel well flare, the insteps of my feet over the power orbs, and the extra comfort from the 3/4" rocker, my feet feel well secured. The concave does not feel very aggressive so it may not be for everyone, but it does a great job of keeping your feet in place and gives your feet a lot of reference points on the deck. This innovative concave will keep you sure-footed while still allowing you to ollie and move your feet around on the deck without things getting in the way.
Another important feature to note on this deck is the overall size and wheelbase. I'm learning to love smaller wheelbases more and more (I've been riding the 23.5" option), but I know that not everyone does. The boards length and wheelbase make for a very agile ride, which could feel twitchy at higher speeds if you're not used to it. That being said, this might not be a go-to downhill board for everyone, but the small size makes it great for whipping around during freeriding as well as street and park skating.
Another bit that makes for awesome freeriding is the combination of the rocker and CNC flush mount, which combine to create a nice low standing platform. This puts your weight closer to the turning point in your trucks and makes for great board control at any speed. The top layer of formica also adds some vibration dampening and stiffness when you're sliding or on choppy pavement. All these features along with the concave made me feel very confident freeriding at high speeds on this board.
That leads me to my next topic: how I rode the board. My setup was mainly 50° Calibers with Riptide APS bushings and a bunch of different wheels—mostly 65-70mm to keep the whole setup a bit lighter and more nimble. This board was a great go-to deck for skating hills and then hitting up the local skatepark afterwards. The short wheelbase and deck kept made for a lively ride and made it really easy to throw slides on. Ollie up a curb, boneless 180 off, switch bomb down your favorite run. When I got tired of tucking and sliding I would skate over to the local park and ride the halfpipe, ledges, and funbox. For how flat the kicktail is, it provides surprising amount of pop which makes ollieing this 8 ply maple beast that much easier. The overall size and weight of the deck make it difficult to do some flip tricks on, but you can learn to adjust to it.
There are some things I think could be improved on. First, I wish that the kicktail had a bit more concave to it. When I first started riding it, my foot would sometimes slip off the back because I wasn't used to the deck's length. This is an easy fix. I just layered some extra griptape around the edges for a bit more concave back there. The other negative bit about this board is that the wheel flares seem to be a bit fragile. I managed to take two small chips out of the bottom ply with a hard hit to the sidewall while at the skatepark. The rest of the boards construction does seem to hold up to some serious abuse. I put a decent ding in the tail after my board got away from me downhill, but it shows no sign of delam or further damage, which I was surprised at.
Overall, I give this board a thumbs up. Highly recommended to city skaters looking for a responsive board to bomb hills and slash sidewalks and alleys on or to downhill skaters who want a premium deck to mess around on between hill runs. For a directional topmount deck, it is surprisingly versatile. Freeride to your heart's content on the Madrid Nessie. Take full advantage of the decks features and continue to blur the line between "longboarding" and "skateboarding;" we all know they're really the same thing.

Good Things
- Power orbs give excellent board feel
Bad Things
- Wheel wells are somewhat fragile

Orangeries are the ideal home improvement for homeowners who want the benefits associated with a conservatory, within a more substantial structure that affords them greater privacy. Much stronger than a conservatory, an orangery roof system boasts superior insulation and efficiency too.
The main structure is made up of brick and masonry, with a sturdy metal framework. This means less heat loss, translating to more savings on energy bills in the long run. With a perfect balance of sunlight, orangeries also reduce the worry of furniture damage and discolouration over time.
They clearly have a range of attractive features, adding value to homes and attracting potential buyers. But why should you choose Specialised Conservatory Systems as your orangery supplier?
Matching your project
At Specialised Conservatory Systems, we strive to provide orangery designs that match all kinds of property development. The classic orangery design is based on that of traditional, atrium-style conservatories. But, by virtue of their part-brick construction, orangeries can be easier to pair with the existing look of a home.
They feature a classic pitched roof, bordered by a flat, external surround, corresponding to a plasterboard or engineered ceiling inside. This perimeter ceiling offers the perfect space to install modern, recessed lighting – an impossibility with glazed roof conservatory designs.
Personalised to perfection
Modern lighting options aren't the only boast of our orangery roofs. Stylistically, our range spans a spectrum of traditional and contemporary designs. Whatever you want and need, we can supply it. With a variety of colour and woodgrain finishes available, there's barely a home you won't be able to match.
Extensions from Specialised Conservatory Systems come with a range of optional extras too. Bi-folding doors add more freedom to the orangery's design. Made from durable aluminium, they can match virtually all homes with powder coating in a vast array of shades. Extras also extend to roof lighting. Our roof lanterns provide your orangery with extra natural light, creating a more spacious appearance.

Grab Some Newspaper
When it's window-cleaning time, turn unsightly streaks, smears and lint into yesterday's news by spraying the windows with homemade glass cleaner (see the recipe above) and wiping them dry using crumpled-up newspaper.
Employing newsprint instead of rags or paper towels will leave your hands dirty but your windows sparkling and lint-free -- cheaply and without streaks. You can also dip the crumpled newspaper directly into a bucket of the homemade cleaner while wearing rubber or vinyl gloves, wipe down the glass with the wet newspaper, and, to finish off, use dry sheets of newspaper to dry and polish the windows.

Mincon Envirosafe RDO is a high performance, environmentally safe rock drill oil. It is a unique lubricant developed for all sizes of DTH hammers, to reduce wear and improve performance. Mincon Envirosafe RDO can be used in all in-line lubricators and has proprietary lubricating compounds that are resistant to being washed off in acidic water, salt water, and foam environments, thus reducing rust on the internal and external parts of the hammer even after the equipment is not in use. It creates a lubricant film on the internal parts that prevents piston scuffing and heat build up. Wear of internal hammer parts is reduced dramatically increasing the life of your hammer and rate of penetration which increases your profitability.
Mincon Envirosafe RDO reduces the potential of surface or groundwater environmental concerns during mining production, mineral exploration, horizontal directional drilling, quarrying, and water well drilling. It has a viscosity that allows the lubricant to flow freely to areas requiring lubrication and also removes the requirement to switch between heavy and light oil as the seasons change. Lubrication can be better controlled and consumption reduced when using Mincon Envirosafe RDO. Mincon Envirosafe RDO is an environmentally safe, biodegradeable product that lubricates more effeciently than conventional Rock Drill Oils while reducing contamination of surface and groundwater. Particularly suited for drilling uncontaminated water wells and monitor wells in sensitive areas such as adjacent to streams and lakes, or where groundwater protection is important.

Hi guys!
Welcome back to Satisfaction for Insatiable Readers.
Today, we're joining in the Reading Addiction Virtual Book Tours promo for a Contemporary Romance title with spirit....team spirit that is! It stars an unexpected MVP that's about to come to terms with not only reality, but her heart. Ready to READ ALL ABOUT IT? Here we go! Today's spotlight shines on...
Running Interference
Cleveland Clash 1
Elley Arden
About the book...
As an offensive linewoman for the Cleveland Clash, Tanya Martin is tough inside and out. The 5'9" beauty can take a hit and keep on going. But when the man she was best friends with - and secretly in love with - in high school comes home the same day she learns her father's gym is in financial trouble, she's unexpectedly blindsided.
Super Bowl MVP Cam Simmons is only back in town to convince his mom to move out of her failing neighborhood and live in luxury with him in Boston. But running into Tanya stirs up plenty of old feelings he never resolved. He was happy to leave his old life behind him when he hit the NFL, but walking away from their friendship was a mistake he wants to rectify.
As they work together to help save her dad's gym, Cam and Tanya's easy camaraderie and undeniable chemistry resurface. But can she open up enough to trust him with her heart a second time around?
Now, you've gotten your warm up in, time to break a sweat! Or rather, check out an EXCERPT to tantalize your reading taste buds a little more....
From Running Interference: Cleveland Clash 1
"I was thinking, what about a celebrity boxing match?" Tanya asked.
"Uh, no." Hell, he couldn't even keep up with her in the ring.
"Back her into the corner!" some guy yelled.
What? Cam took his eyes off her for only a split second.
She popped him again and smiled. "Yeah, that's probably a terrible idea. I mean who wants to pay to see you get your ass kicked?"
She danced around him, eyes blazing. Focus, man.
He managed a jab to her gut before she moved away.
"Thatta way!" the guy cheered.
She approached again. Cam swung. At the last minute, she spun, and his fist hung in midair. More dancing. Little hops. And a rush of laughter. He loved when she had fun. There was nothing more beautiful in the whole world.
She popped him again. Right in the flank.
The guy booed. Cam may have, too, because this didn't seem fair.
"You know, it's okay to hit a girl in here," she said. "I don't want you getting hung up on political correctness and looking like a fool in front of your … " she glanced at the guy who was watching them, "fan. Singular."
Smart ass. He lunged, and she dodged.
"Come on," she said. "Show me what you've got, superstar."
Oh, he'd show her all right. Just not in here. Later, they were going to finish what they started. He would find someplace where they wouldn't be interrupted by roommates or family members, someplace where they could …
She bounced to the left and clobbered him. His brain rattled.
The guy gave a disgusted sound, and then walked away.
His one fan had bailed.
Time to stop the insanity. "Okay!" His louder than normal voice halted Tanya in her tracks, but a second later, she was bouncing again.
"What was that?" she asked.
"Just me announcing that the match can finally begin. I think you're good and warmed up." He grinned. "In fact," he bobbed his brows, "you're looking super-hot to me."
Her feet slowed, and her eyes narrowed. "How 'bout from now on you keep your thoughts to yourself? This is a boxing ring, not group therapy."
Yep, he'd unnerved her, and he was just getting started.
"I'm being courteous," he said, shuffling closer and lowering his voice. "I like to let my opponents get a feel for my size before we really get down and dirty." He bit into his cheek to keep from laughing.
"You wish," she said, but she was smiling too.
He advanced. She backpedaled, and then she hit the rope.
"Trapped," he mouthed.
"Never," she whispered.

UGA's Week 1 Depth Chart: Brought To You By The Word "OR"
The skeptic may call it unsettled. I call it sandbaggery.
Kirby Smart released his first game week depth chart this morning, and…he may as well not have. The word "OR" appears at 16 spots in the two-deep, including 12 starting spots.
In a season where we don't yet know who will be starting at quarterback for Michigan, Texas, Notre Dame, or Alabama, the trend of playing lineups close to the vest is growing.
Let's take a look at the "ORs"!
Not many guys listed as solid starters on this UGA offensive depth chart. pic.twitter.com/m5hb5YEU9i
— Marc Weiszer (@marcweiszer) August 29, 2016
QB: Starting with a BS call on Kirby. Eason is starting.
HB: Chubb, if not on a pitch count (as Kirby said today) is starting.
FB: Six one way, half a dozen the other.
WR: Chigbu vs. Godwin scares me a little bit, as it would state that Godwin hasn't taken the step forward Georgia needs to rely on him as the top target. Davis vs. McKenzie was moot, in my mind, due to the thought that Chigbu would be the SE and Godwin the Flanker, so…this interests me.
LT: Catalina vs. Wynn: Wynn will start somewhere, and it sounds like the staff is high on Catalina, making…
…LG: Wynn vs. Sims moot.
RG: With Wynn at LG, Sims would likely take RG over Lamont Gaillard.
So three positions (TE, C, RT) are settled going into week 1. If you believe that, I've got an inside track on selling the man-made lake they're putting in the Georgia Dome's place next year.
On defense, not quite so much of the same, as the position battles still active are quite intriguing.

Reggie Carter, Natrez Patrick, and Roquan Smith are all vying for the MIKE and WILL jobs. As much as I've heard Smith's name this fall, I expect him to take WILL with Carter manning the inside.
At nickel, new guy Maurice Smith is battling Rico McGraw. They're both going to see a lot of snaps on Saturday.
**PROGRAMMING NOTE: There are two podcasts featuring myself and Andrew lost in the dark world of the internet, hoping they emerge because they took forever and were good. Hoping to get those up so I can interview a UNC friend for his takes on the game later in the week.**

KISSES, WHALES: We would never, ever be less than kind to those gentle behemoths of our oceans, the blue whales and the gray whales and those amazing orcas that we've seen more of over the last few watching seasons. Whales that come near shore, or skim past the boats of shore, are some of the superstars of the Golden State, despite never setting foot -- or fluke, rather -- on land. (Aside: Is it odd that we sometimes consider visiting whales to be honorary Californians, out of pride? True, whales belong to the earth, and are far greater than any one terrestrial location -- point taken.)
BUT... our region's famous whale-watching cruises aren't the only on-the-water boat trips that head out, further into the deep, to look for the gifts of the mighty Pacific. There are cruises that look for something far, far, far, far smaller -- four "fars" should do it -- than a whale, an organism so eensy that it might appear at the opposite end of one of those posters that line up the smallness-to-bigness of every earthling. For if the whales are on one side of that poster, than euphasids -- "small 'bug-like' organisms" -- must be near the other end. They're tiny, but they pack a visual punch on the right night, as people who've joined an Ocean Institute Bioluminescence Night Cruise have discovered. The Dana Point on-the-water trips depend on factors like what phase the moon is in, so they happen every so often, but when they do, it can be glow-water magic.
WELL, NOT MAGIC... but the science of why euphasids show up, on board, when a net is drawn up the boat's side, carrying their own very tiny flashlights. (Not really, but figuratively.) It's beauty, it's ocean poetry, and it is rife with knowledge and marine-fascinating facts. Want to see that sometime, so it can fill your head and stir the science-y parts of your brain and heart? Keep a watch for the next moon phase, and trip, here. Tickets are $35 per adult, $22 for kids ages 3 to 12. Glowing ocean stuff! Can we get a "wow"?

"Paper as the medium for the world's memory has one great advantage; it survives benign neglect well. Bits, on the other hand, need continual care, and thus a continual flow of money."
Join us for a day-long symposium about the challenges of preservation in the digital age.
From interactive art, time-based media, videogames, networked data art, and mixed reality, to the petabytes of analogue content now being rapidly digitised by institutions, digital preservation is an immediate and pressing concern.
How might we engage with digital preservation as works are being made, mounted and distributed? How might future artistic and creative practices be transformed? Is 'future proofing' ever possible?

On Sunday afternoon we were very civilised: we had afternoon tea with my parents and some friends.
It had been a dark and foggy day, but the sun was just starting to make its presence known when we arrived at my parents' house just after 2pm. Mum had lit lots of candles, and the house looked very pretty, with just a few hints of Christmassy decorations starting to appear.
I made the lemon fairy cakes you can see in this picture, finishing them just before we set off. That meant I didn't have time to test them, but I needn't have worried as they were very good. (This more than makes up for the poor cooking I did last weekend!). They are from a recipe in the Hummingbird Bakery cookbook, a book I've been really pleased with so far.
Anyway, speaking of Christmas… how are your preparations going? I had planned to get all of my Christmas shopping done in November as I struggle to enjoy being in shops in December – I find it all a bit overwhelming. But I had failed to notice that December starts NEXT WEEK. So I might not quite manage to have finished by then. We'll see.
And I think I am going to leap into Christmas rather early this year – I usually am rather slow to put the decorations up, but this time I think I will put them up early and enjoy them for longer. Anna at Twelve 22 put her tree up on the 9th of November! I think I might do my decorations in the first few days of December, which is early by my standards.

When your CV has finally landed you an interview for that job you have been waiting for, you need to be prepared. Succeeding in interviews needs the right attitude and confidence. After all, there is a thin line between being confident and being arrogant. Here are a few tips that can help you seal the deal and get your dream job.:
- Know your employer. Do research about the company you want to go into before you go for the interview. This will help you when you are asked about the company and why you should work there.
- Be confident and know what you can bring to the table. Especially as most interviewers will ask you to talk about yourself. So have a clear understanding of your strengths and weaknesses.
- Ask questions. When given the opportunity to ask questions, ask meaningful questions about your potential employer. Make sure you always have one or two questions to ask so that you are engaged in the process.
- Dress the part.
- Be cautious of your body language and gestures. Sit up straight and try not to talk with your hands too much.
- Make your first impression count. Remember that first impressions last, so make sure you are remembered, this will give you a better chance of landing your dream job.
- Thank your interviewer. Always show gratitude and thank the people that took their time to interview you. After all, they could have just not responded.

今天我们要学的词是 binge.
binge 的意思是狂欢,暴饮暴食。 Fifty-seven percent of full-time American college students had a drink in the last month, and about 38% of them were binge drinking, according to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism. 根据美国国家酒精滥用与酒精中毒研究所的数据,全日制美国大学生中有57%的人上个月喝过一次酒,其中约38%的学生是豪饮。
News outlets reported that Netflix was abandoning its binge model, in which a series' entire season is released at once for users to watch at their own pace, in favor of releasing episodes on a weekly basis. 据新闻媒体报道,Netflix打算放弃其"狂看"模式,就是一部剧整季上线,让用户按照各自的节奏观看,而是倾向于每周发布剧集。

I didn't take any photos of the tables before I painted them, so you will have to use your imagination to picture what they looked like before their transformation.
Imagine this first table with a damaged-beyond-repair veneer top. I removed the veneer and its underlayment, revealing the rough, pieced base of the top. I scraped off the glue with my Bahco scraper, then used my orbital palm sander to sand it smooth. The base of the table and the contrasting edge of the top is painted with Annie Sloan's 'Old Violet'. The design on the top used 'Country Grey', 'Scandinavian Pink', and 'Chateau Grey'.
The base is lightly distressed and finished with clear wax. The top received two coats of Minwax oil-based wipe-on polyurethane, for durability. (I don't like living with waxed tops on furniture, and I don't think the people who buy my pieces should have to either.)
This table has a drawer. I cleaned it up and lined it with some Waverly wallpaper that coordinates with the Scandinavian Pink on the top. The original handle is in great shape, so all it needed was a quick wash and wipe before I reinstalled it.
Now let's look at the second table. This one is held together with screws and bolts, and it was quick to disassemble it to make working on it easier. The top came apart into two pieces, which meant that I didn't have to carefully cut in as I painted around the edge of the center contrasting part.
No 'Before' photo of this table either ... you'll have to imagine it with a big melted spot in the finish on top, where it looked like someone had set a leaky bottle of nail polish remover. (That sanded out easily and you'll never find where it used to be.) The base of the table and the outer portion of the top are painted with a custom mix of Annie Sloan's 'Coco' and 'Olive'. The compass on top uses 'Country Grey', 'Old Violet', and 'Chateau Grey'.
Just like I did with the first table, the base of this one is lightly distressed and clear waxed, and the top is sealed with polyurethane.
These two tables are now part of the hoarder's stash of stuff being stored in my living room ... destined for the Luckett's Spring Market in May.
I hope these inspire you to take a second look at those less-than-perfect thrift store items you run across ... and I want you to think about other colors to use when remaking your own pieces. There is a LOT more out there besides white, grey, and turquoise.
On another subject .... I have told you before about our friends Jim and Dan in Maryland. Today, Jim has a timely guest post on the Washington Gardener Blog about the Washington DC cherry trees. Click HERE to read Jim's post ... and enjoy!

Boys Ranches in Albertville, Alabama…Treasure Coast Boys Academy Will Turn Around Your Troubled Boy
Even as you look for boys ranches in Albertville, Alabama, would you take a minute to consider a therapeutic ranch-based program in Florida that offers incredible results? After all, not all boys ranches are alike nor offer professional therapy.
While not in Albertville, AL, Treasure Coast Boys Academy, in Eastern Florida, is a boys ranch developed for at-risk boys. Treasure Coast Boys Academy shows boys the right way to live through example, lessons, counsel, mentoring and team exercises. Also, by avoiding distractions and detaching from problematic situations, it helps to begin the process of breaking destructive patterns of behavior. Unlike boys homes and ranches you may find near Albertville, AL, Treasure Coast Boys Academy believes that improving relationships with both God and man are the first step for a long-term change in a boy's behavior.
Boys come to Treasure Coast Boys Academy from around the country, including from Albertville, Alabama, both to let them spend time in a new environment and to experience the caring and fun environment they find here. Enrollment is year-round.
If you are searching for boys ranches in or near Albertville, Alabama as you want your son to choose a different path in life, consider that Treasure Coast Boys Academy might be exactly what you need.
Treasure Coast Boys Academy cares for 50 boys ages 13 to 18 at our residential boarding school and ranch located on a 30-acre ranch. With the use of the certified equine therapy and a variety of sports and outdoor recreation, boys begin to develop character, integrity, and respect. We give boys ownership in work projects and chapel services on campus to keep them involved in what is their home away from home.
A Great Alternative to Boys Ranches that May be Closer to Albertville, AL
At Treasure Coast Boys Academy, we keep boys physically active and challenged. Our recreational and sports facilities include a well-equipped gym and a professional array of weight machines, soccer field, baseball diamond, basketball court, pool, game room, fishing ponds, and horses. We often go fishing on the Florida waterways and out in the ocean. The highlight of the program is a breathtaking wilderness experience in the mountains of North Carolina during the last month of the boys' time at the ranch. Whitewater rafting, hiking, camping, and other adventures illustrate that life can be simultaneously adventuresome and positive.
Counseling takes place frequently during the day, in all settings, through conversations and mentoring during activities and group settings. We put great importance on mentorship, providing the boys with positive male role models during their residence with us.
Our on-campus academy is in session year-round to give students the chance to fulfill any missed credits. We have on-campus teachers who facilitate the boy's education and tutor individual boys. Boys from Albertville, Alabama quickly catch up on missed coursework or get far ahead.
Treasure Coast Boys Academy gives a once "out-of-control" teenage boy a second chance at a successful future.

My wee Scottish pal is here.
Thursday morning I picked her up from the airport after what was quite an uneventful journey actually. Surprising, as there are road works everywhere at the moment. The journey to the airport is not the easiest and I am not the most patient driver in the world either. I have discovered though that my driving much reflects the music that I am listening to. Therefore, I found something mellow to tune into for the journey.
The weather has turned. It was raining intermittently for most of the journey and while that is not ideal for motorway driving I quite enjoyed just moseying along, listening to music and having some head space.
I pulled up at arrivals at exactly the same time she did, her flight having been slightly delayed while the pilots get used to flying in shit loads of cloud again. I spotted her immediately and pulled in at the side of the road. She does not change and I suppose neither do I, we still look remarkably like we did all those years ago, with the exception of a few extra pounds and our older but wiser *cough, wrinkles.
They charge £400 per minute to use the road that runs parallel to the airport so after an excited hug we threw her tiny hold all in the boot and headed off, still a few quid lighter for the 30 second journey from one end of the road to the other. Capitalism at its shiny best.
The two of us talked non-stop all the way home. It's a miracle we made it home and we are not still driving around the M25, as I do not concentrate well when chattering incessantly. I had to check several times that we were actually heading in the right direction and not on our way to Bristol.
Since Thursday it has been all go. I am knackered and that is putting it politely. I am sleeping with Tom, which is not ideal but our Sofa's are not built for comfort and in order for Ruth to have some space of her own (and the fact that she snores like an old man), it was that or sleep in the shed, neither held much appeal to be fair but I think I prefer Tom to a shed full of logs and Spiders. Although Tom's legs are just as spindly. If he kicks me once, he kicks me a half a dozen times a night. Only a Mother could love him sometimes but waking up to his beautiful, peaceful expression as he sleeps is just about worth every moment of his tossing and bloody turning.
This morning I had to drag myself out of bed, conscious of it being a blog day and needing some peace and quiet I thought now would be the ideal time to start it at least but I can barely keep my eyes open, even my cup of tar like coffee is not shaking the sleepiness off. The rest of the house is still sleeping and it is nearly time for lunch. It has been a full on couple of days.
Lazy mornings, jam-packed afternoons and late nights spent up till all hours playing boards games, talking, laughing and stuffing our faces with snacks and ice cream. Ruth who has apparently never played Cluedo in her life, has suddenly turned in to Miss Marple. We are a competitive lot when it comes to board games, Elsie is pretty certain that she is cheating and is watching her like a hawk, either that or she missed her vocation in life and really should have been a detective.
Tom spends most of the game Clue-less not quite working out that it is supposed to be a process of elimination and wondering why he keeps being shown the same card every time. If you can't shoot it or drive it through a building he simply doesn't get it.
It's been really lovely having some company for a few days, it's been great for Tom and Elsie as Ruth spoils them rotten but it's been even nicer for me to have my old pal around. It's just nice to have someone to chew the fat with, someone who you have common ground with, we are very similar, some would say too similar but we have always been friends right from the first moment we met, all those years ago in L'Estartit. We do not always keep in touch, it is sporadic and it has been only more recently that we have both made more of an effort to see each other but not for one minute have I never considered her to be one of my closest friends.
There are just some people with who you have a connection. I get on with most people and do not find making friends a chore. Friends come and go through life but they are always still friends, most of the people I consider to be friends have been invaluable at various stages in my life and just because we are maybe not as close now as we once were, or we may not see each other as often as we once did, it makes them no less important. The impact that they had on my life at the time or still have now holds the same relevance today as it did then.
The memories that you make with friends old and new are some of the best memories you will ever have. We should never underestimate the value of friendship and the joy it can bring.
Ruth will be gone again soon and I will miss her the minute she goes, it is not always easy sharing your home and long term we would pretty quickly get on each other nerves I expect but for the short term it has been lovely and much as I am looking forward to having my bed all to myself again, we will be sad to see her go.
However, we have two more days yet… let the good times roll! 🙂

Here's an 8-channel lamp controller and lamp module. That's an ESP12e wifi/microcontroller module with an extra 8Kx8 serial eeprom, a PWM generator, e-fuse protected voltage main, two pushbuttons, and a Lesser Injection-Molded Polybutylene Guardian of Darkness. The lamp modules have 24 Cree 3500K 90CRI medium power ceramic body LEDs. I plan on mounting six or eight of those lamps on a three or four foot piece of aluminum/copper flat stock with some kind of decorative shade, and it bounces off the ceiling for the light.
Building and flashing v1.8.5 was no problem. The lamp modules are individually dimmable, so strobe and marquee effects are easy, and something like "occasional movement simulation" might be useful for security purposes. I've added ports for an ambient light sensor and a motion detector, so those make lots of entertaining possibilities.

As a great admirer of the Austrian symbolist painter Gustav Klimt and his use of pattern and colour, Althea made this 25 cm square dish using his work as her source of inspiration.
It was fused flat in the kiln, and is decorated with gold and platinum circles. These are painted on using the real metal making for an outstanding finishing touch. After the flat dish was made it was slumped into a mould giving it a curve. This piece is beautifully decorative and would make a stunning fruit bowl . It's rich colours stand up well to being shown against multiple surfaces, especially dark woods.
Size: 25cm x 25cm

When we lost you Cole, it wasn't just your life that was lost. It was all of the hopes and dreams that we had for you, that you had for yourself.
When you lose a child, you not only mourn for your child, but you mourn for what could have been, what should have been. All of the hopes and dreams that as parents, we had for you, are gone. Simply gone. The hopes of taking pictures of you looking so handsome in your tux at your senior prom. The hopes of watching you walk across the stage to take that diploma. The dream of watching you stand next to your brother as his Best Man in his wedding. The dream of hearing you speak at Blake's wedding reception. The dream of watching you work through college to achieve your lifelong dream of becoming a gunsmith. The dream of knowing that you are living your own dream of building guns and breaking records. The dream of me dancing with you to our "mother/son" dance at your wedding. The dream of seeing you become a father and loving my grandchildren. The dream of knowing that you and your brother would have each as best friends…forever.
All of this is gone. All of this will never become a reality. We lost your whole life Cole…you lost your whole life. You lost out on so much that we took for granted, that we never thought twice about being able to do with you. All of that is lost. As your mom, I cry for all of this, all of what could have been.
I know that there are parents who lost even more, who lost watching their child start kindergarten, or learning how to drive. My heart breaks for all of them because this is the worst pain, most gut wrenching journey I have ever been on and sometimes I just pray that I wake up. I pray that this was all just a nightmare and that God wakes me up.
Then I remember what you lived by…everything happens for a reason. I know that Jesus reached for your hand that day Cole, and you took it. I am proud of you for that Cole. I am proud of your faith, I am proud that you shared your faith with everyone you loved. That is what gets me through this. Because I know that you loved God, you accepted Jesus as your savior, and I know that you are with Him. I thank God that you are with Him Cole, as much as I want you back here, I know that you are in heaven, and you are saving us a place.
We love you Cole. Forever and always. We will see you again someday, and that day will be the biggest celebration this world has ever seen.
Love mom
