A photo of Sia (via Celebuzz)
In addition to her five Grammy nominations, alternative songstress-turned-pop chanteuse Sia has landed two Golden Globe nominations for songs she's contributed to films. However, the motion-picture academy has yet to recognize her work. Will 2016 be the year that changes?
While the vocal powerhouse behind "Chandelier" and "Breathe Me" co-wrote "Try Everything" for Disney's recent masterpiece Zootopia – no, it's not too early to say that – something tells me that a song so poppy won't impress AMPAS' music branch – especially when the song failed to hit it big on pop radio.
But Sia may have another shot for a completely different kind of picture. The Playlist reports that she has contributed a new song, titled "Waving Goodbye," to the soundtrack to Nicolas Winding Refn's The Neon Demon. The soundtrack will also feature two new songs from Julian Winding – "The Demon Dance" and "Mine," the latter to be performed by Sweet Tempest.
The film, to be distributed by Amazon Studios, centers on an aspiring model, played by Elle Fanning, who chases her dreams by moving to Los Angeles, only for a group of beauty-obsessed women to devour her youth and vitality.
It doesn't quite sound like awards fare, but Amazon seems keen to get its pics on the festival circuit and into the Oscar conversation. Sight unseen, Sia's track looks like Neon Demon's best bet for a nomination. As mentioned before, she's no stranger to film soundtracks: She scored Golden Globe bids for Burlesque (2010) and Annie (2014) and wrote songs for, in addition to other films, last year's Fifty Shades of Grey and Pitch Perfect 2.
Like most great movie tunes, Sia's tend to up the emotional ante of the films in which they appear. In Fifty Shades of Grey, her "Salted Wound" sets the scene more than the misused "Love Me Like You Do" and the Oscar-nodded "Earned It." And "Flashlight" from Pitch Perfect 2 evolves throughout the film, like its in-narrative songwriter played by Hailee Steinfeld.
Amazon has yet to set a release date for The Neon Demon, but given that the soundtrack drops (on CD and digital) on June 24 with a vinyl release on July 9, expect to see the film sometime around there. Also, we're anticipating a Cannes bow for the thriller; we should know before the end of the week (!!!)

Obesity ups liver-related mortality risk, exercise cuts it
Obesity appears to be a strong risk factor for liver-related mortality, while exercise exerts a protective effect, a recent study has found.
Drawing from two nationwide population samples, researchers conducted a prospective cohort study on 77,238 women and 48,026 men with detailed and validated assessments of weekly physical activity, as expressed in metabolic equivalent task (MET)-hours. Other important factors were body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, diet, alcohol use and clinical comorbidities.
Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression analysis found that each unit increase in cumulative average BMI correlated with a significant 5.1-percent jump in the risk of liver-related mortality (ptrend<0.0001).
When taken according to categories, BMI 25 to <30 kg/m2 (adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 1.40, 95 percent confidence interval [CI], 1.06–1.84), 30 to <35 kg/m2 (adjusted HR, 2.22, 95 percent CI, 1.56–3.16), and ≥35 kg/m2 (adjusted HR, 2.97, 95 percent CI, 1.84–4.79) were all significant risk factors for liver-related mortality than BMI 19 to <25 kg/m2.
Central adiposity had a similar effect. Each additional cm in WC correlated with a 5.6-percent increase in the risk of liver-related mortality (ptrend=0.003). Participants in the highest WC quartile were twice as likely as their lowest-quartile comparators to die of liver-related causes (adjusted HR, 2.09, 95 percent CI, 1.16–3.77).
In contrast, exercise appears to counteract this risk. Each additional 3 MET-hours per week of exercise led to a 3.5-percent drop in the risk of liver-related mortality. This protective effect intensified with increasing physical activity (ptrend<0.0001).

Isabel's first swim time!
Last week was so hot, so we put Isabel in our neighbors kiddie pool. I think we had more fun than her, she didn't know what to think. But the water was perfect temperature, so she didn't cry. One time, I put her on her tummy, and she decided to relax her neck and dunked her face under the water for a split second. That took her breath away to say the least. Can't wait to take her to a big swimming pool that is heated. We tried a few weeks ago up in Midway, but the pool was freezing, so she wanted no part of that!
She is so much fun and growing so fast!

St Louis Blues chairman Tom Stillman has secured complete control of the reigning National Hockey League champion, while Alex Meruelo's takeover of the Arizona Coyotes has been approved by the NHL's board of governors.
Stillman's ownership group has acquired the minority interest in the Blues previously held by Sports Capital Holdings (SCH), the holding company of the previous Blues ownership group, which was in place from 2006 to the team's takeover in 2012.
Stillman's group acquired the Blues in a deal reportedly worth around $130m (€115m) and the latest purchase means it now owns 100 per cent of the team. The agreement completes a full exit of SCH, the Blues' former majority owners, from any interest in the team. Every member of the existing ownership group will remain in place, with Stillman continuing to serve as chairman and governor.
The Blues last week completed a 4-3 Stanley Cup Finals victory over the Boston Bruins to win the first NHL championship since its foundation in 1967. "This is the best possible outcome for the St. Louis Blues, our city and community, and our supporters everywhere," Stillman said.
"Our all-local ownership group acquired the Blues in 2012 with two overriding goals: win a Stanley Cup for St. Louis, and secure the long-term health of the franchise. Today the group made another major commitment, purchasing the only remaining outside interest in the team.
"Going forward, it will be business as usual, both on and off the ice. We will continue to serve St. Louis by investing in the Blues, the Enterprise Center, and the community, and we look forward to raising our first Stanley Cup banner in October."
Meanwhile, yesterday's (Wednesday's) board of governors meeting saw the NHL approve Cuban-American billionaire businessman Mereulo as the league's only majority owner. While Mereulo's takeover of the Coyotes is set to formally close next month, the future of the long-troubled franchise was high on the agenda of yesterday's meeting.
The Coyotes have gone through multiple owners, including the NHL itself; a name change; and long-running difficulties concerning the effort to develop a new arena over the past two decades. Mereulo, who is the sole owner of Meruelo Group, a construction and real estate development firm, will take over the team from Andrew Barroway, who has controlled it since 2015 and became the sole owner in 2017.
Barroway will retain a five-per-cent stake once the takeover is completed, with NHL commissioner Gary Bettman expressing his confidence that the new regime at the Coyotes can push through the arena effort.
"I think (Meruelo) is committed to trying to get a new arena in the right location and making it work," Bettman said, according to the Associated Press news agency. "He is a person of substantial means, and he is very good, if you look at his career, in turning around businesses and making them successful. I think this is an extraordinarily positive step for the Coyotes and their fans in Arizona."
The Coyotes currently play at the 15-year-old Gila River Arena in Glendale, but its location in the suburbs has hit attendances with a centrally-located facility the priority. NHL regulations prevent new owners from immediately applying to relocate teams, but Bettman yesterday refused to rule out the possibility with a number of cities currently eyeing an NHL team.
"I'd rather not go there, because I'm not going to issue threats," Bettman added. "(Meruelo) has told us, including in his interview with the executive committee, that he very much likes Arizona. He wants to make it work there, and he's going to try very hard for that to be the case. Obviously, the club is not viable long-term in Glendale, but hopefully we don't get to that point."

Well, the guy is 36 years old. Unfortunately, for all-natural players, that tends to signal the end- particularly if they've got a hamstring held together by bailing wire and staples. But you're right. The Manager positions the players in the field and controls where they hit in the order. Griffey is the Reds' Center Fielder because he has been chosen to be the Reds Center Fielder. He hits in the three-slot because that is where he's written into the lineup.
The OF should be Griffey in LF, Dunn in RF (before he eventually moves to 1B), and Freel in CF. It sucks to see a hero's defensive skills disintegrate, but that's what happens. Even Andruw Jones has lost steps, but the Braves still run him out to CF based on his reputation.
At the Reds have broached the changing positions topic with Griffey in prior years. At this point he certainly shouldn't be adverse to switching excepting the idea the fast stops at LF (the only other OF position he should play) and stretches at 1B would strain on his already-debilitated hammys. If he's incapable of playing another position, then he's a DH playing Center Field in a league that doesn't offer the DH position.
And hopefuly you now how hard it is for me to say that about Griffey. I've been full-on in his corner while he's overcome serious injury problems. But at some point he and Reds management needs to realize that a position switch is in everyone's best interest.

The man, who knows I'm prone to being riled, forwarded me an article today. As a man who loves the spoken word but has a tendency to keep his writings succinct (proof, obviously, that opposites attract), the email contained a link to an article and this:
"Bit wordy. But food for thought and resonates your feelings about how nationalism and jingoism have infiltrated the US sport experience."
So I read the article. And, the man's right, it resonates.
I was born in the US. I was educated in the US. We said the Pledge of Allegiance when I was in elementary school. Every child learned the proper way to handle the flag. We sang the national anthem before sporting events. Nothing about that seemed odd to me. I had no idea that wasn't the norm in other countries.
And, the fact is, I like the US flag. I also think the Star Spangled Banner is an excellent national anthem.
In fact, I like the United States. There are things about my birth nation that fill me with such pride and such wonder that my heart swells. Being American is not something I earned, it's not something I worked for, it's not something I sacrificed for. It's something I was just born into. And, honestly, I am glad for that.
I also like baseball.
I like baseball a lot. Some of my favourite childhood memories are of being able to stay up late to watch the Atlanta Braves play the San Diego Padres or the LA Dodgers or the San Francisco Giants on the west coast. My mother and I still, to this day, talk about and laugh about specifics of some of those games.
Baseball, America's game.
But a few years ago, something happened. And, now, I don't go to baseball games anymore.
The man's been a fairly easy convert to baseball. He's a lover of sports. He keeps the radio on in every room of the house so he can seamlessly follow the cricket matches. Baseball wasn't a hard sell.
So, when we started spending more time the States, we decided to incorporate more baseball. I hadn't really been to baseball games in years, so it was really exciting to be going back into real-live-up-close-and-personal games.
And that is great. There is something about being in a stadium watching sport that is just so much better than what the tellie offers.
It was great.
Until the seventh inning stretch.
That's when I discovered that Take Me Out to the Ballpark has been replaced with a full military show and the crowd being 'encouraged', shall we say, to stand for the singing of God Bless America.
Suddenly, that all-inclusive great American pastime felt a whole lot less inclusive and a whole lot less 'great American'.
I love the nation of my birth. I do.
I am also a pacifist. I do not believe that the wars and 'defence strategies' of today are making the world a safer place. Far from it. I believe that the people who really 'protect our freedoms' are the teachers, and the caregivers, and the street cleaners, and the fire-fighters, and the emergency response teams who actually hold together the fabric of our day-to-day society.
I also – get this – I also believe that little bit of 'being American' that promises us religious freedom. That means we don't all believe in the same god. In fact, that means some of us don't believe in any god at all.
And that's okay. Because the United States was built on the ideals of freedom and equality.
Well, then, why is it that now, when I go to a baseball game, I feel like I'm being given a 'you're either with us or you're against us' ultimatum. Why is that I feel fearful – yes, actually afraid – if I choose not to stand for the singing of 'God Bless America'?
Where's the freedom in that?
I suppose it's that I have the freedom not to go to baseball games anymore. . . .
I like the US. In fact, I love the US. And I like baseball. And I don't mind at all that I learned how to handle the American flag when I was in elementary school or that I learned the national anthem.
But you know what song I most remember from our classroom 'sing sessions' – Woody Guthrie's This Land Is Your Land because, you know, silly kid that I was, I bought into the notion that 'this land was made for you and me'.

A side mirror that eliminates the dangerous "blind spot" for drivers has now received a U.S. patent.
The subtly curved mirror, invented by Drexel University mathematics professor Dr. R. Andrew Hicks, dramatically increases the field of view with minimal distortion.
Traditional flat mirrors on the driver's side of a vehicle give drivers an accurate sense of the distance of cars behind them but have a very narrow field of view. As a result, there is a region of space behind the car, known as the blind spot, that drivers can't see via either the side or rear-view mirror. It's not hard to make a curved mirror that gives a wider field of view – no blind spot – but at the cost of visual distortion and making objects appear smaller and farther away.
Hicks's driver's side mirror has a field of view of about 45 degrees, compared to 15 to 17 degrees of view in a flat driver's side mirror. Unlike in simple curved mirrors that can squash the perceived shape of objects and make straight lines appear curved, in Hicks's mirror the visual distortions of shapes and straight lines are barely detectable.

I recently bought a Traeger Lil Tex Elite pellet smoker & have cooked on it over six yrs. now. I would like to share recipes & info I have gained from cooking on it. Update 2014: I have plenty of recipes here for the pellet smoker so I am now including other outdoor cooking and some of my indoor cooking too.

Smoked Pork Neck Bone Gravy over rice with cornbread and greens
3 comments:
That gravy looks really delicious. I mean, when I saw the pictures my stomach started growling! It looks like you used a smoker to help in part of the cooking process. Does it matter what kind of smoking wood you use? I was under the impression that the kind of wood you use would influence the taste of the meat. is that correct or incorrect? http://growokc.com/bbq-smoking-wood/ReplyDelete
Thanks Claudia! The smoker is a pellet smoker and I was using oak pellets in it. A pellet smoker just gives a hint of smoke flavor. When I want a little more smoke flavor I use the tube smoker to add more smoke and I was using oak pellets in it too. Yes the kind of wood will give different flavors. I use mostly all oak since I can buy local. If I get a good price on shipping I like to use hickory. DonReplyDelete
Your method of smoking sounds great! Kind of the indirect heat way of cooking.ReplyDelete

Can anyone advise whether it is possible to automate the creation of activities (calls, meetings etc) following a change in the customers journey stage.
We currently operate a customer journey with multiple stages built within it. At each stage we have a requirement to create new activities which are required prior to the customer moving to the next opportunity stage. Ideally we would like workbooks to create these activities automatically following a change in stage. i.e. within a 7 stage customer journey can workbooks pre-create all activities at predetermined stages following the creation of the opportunity within the organisation.
|Posted: Mon, 08.08.2016 - 10:04
Thanks for a great question!
Any of our Customer who are not utilising the Free Version have access to the Automation features within Workbooks. From here it is possible to create an 'On-Change Process' that looks at your Records as you save them. This Process will be able to see if the Status value has changed and then apply the necessary action, whether this be creating Activities with specific values dependant on the change detected or changing values on the Record itself.
Processes utilise Scripts and although there are many Scripts in the Script library this type of Script will need to be custom built as it needs to meet your specific requirements. If you would like Workbooks to assist you in creating this On Change Process please contact the Support Team at email@example.com or 0118 3030 101 to allow us to gather the requirements to enable an accurate estimate to be produced.
Kind regards,

Ramadan in Morocco a month of charity but also of soaring food prices
CASABLANCA - Every year before the holy month of Ramadan, the government seeks to reassure Moroccans about prices of heavily consumed products. But as price hikes are seemingly inevitable this time of year, the Interior Ministry has also set up a 24-hour phone line to receive complaints from traders and consumers regarding prices and supplies.
Lahcen Daoudi, the minister in charge of general affairs and governance, in April said the market would be supplied with food in a normal way during Ramadan.
"Moroccan markets will be supplied with all the necessary products and with reasonable prices during Ramadan, thanks in particular to a good rainy year," said Daoudi, who led a meeting of the Interministerial Commission in charge of monitoring markets and control operations.
Daoudi called for "rigorous control" to avoid manipulation that runs counter to fair competition and harms consumers. Representatives of ministerial departments predicted that prices of most products would remain stable, given the abundance of supply.
Still, the High Commission for Planning revealed that 87% of Moroccan households said food prices had increased in the last 12 months and 83.4% said they expected a further increase over the next 12 months.
The holy month coincides with a boycott on social networks of leading Moroccan brands accused of raising prices of products, including milk made by Centrale Laitiere.
In the past, many merchants have taken advantage of Ramadan — and a lack of control — to raise prices as consumption peaks. Some food, such as eggs, fish and lentils, has been subject to significant price increases.
Coffee shops invade the pavement with their chairs, pushing pedestrians to the roads amid a lack of law enforcement by local councils. They also remain open very late, drawing residents' ire.
Some businesses illegally change their activities to selling pastry, especially Chebakia, which adorns every household's iftar table. Street vendors fill popular neighbourhoods' streets, offering dates, traditional pancakes,
freshly-prepared orange juices and fried fish.
Leisure and sports activities reach their climax before breaking fast. Some people choose fishing along the coast of Casablanca while others take advantage of the spare hours ahead of the sunset to practise sports.
The clock goes back one hour behind British Summer Time during Ramadan to make it easier for Muslims to observe the fast.
Ramadan is also a month of piety, generosity and forgiveness during which volunteers and NGOs provide iftar for the needy. Public schools turn into large gatherings for free iftars and patients at public hospitals are also served.
Tents are erected in empty public spaces to receive worshippers for Tarawih prayers to ease the burden on packed mosques.
Quran reciting competitions for children and adults take place across Morocco. As for entertainment, the Ramadan tradition is that Moroccan families meet around the iftar table to break their fast together. Television screens are inundated with repeated adverts of companies' products and services fighting to target their highest audience of the year.
Almost 70% of Moroccans watch national TV channels during Ramadan, said Marocmetrie, a television audience measuring service.
Ramadan can be a month of extravagance for those who prefer to break their fast at trendy restaurants or top hotels that offer endless food and desserts as part of expensive "eat as much as you like" menus.

Contrasting Colors No More
November 29, 2018
It's a little sad, but I may have a second opportunity…and this recipient just may be worth a little more cost in the yarn. But first, I have some exciting news: I am being published in The Central Review, Central Michigan University's undergraduate literary journal! It is one simple poem entitled, "My dear Exploder (Yes, I Meant to Say Exploder)," and the release party is tomorrow night at 6PM. I'm excited and may make this short, because I still need to practice my delivery on this poem, and figure out where I'm stopping and starting and where to pause and if the tempo changes. Okay, time to take a deep breath. I can rehearse the reading later.
My photo for the publishing op part of the Central Review publication.
In the meantime, I'm working on the Indian Cross Scarf, because I gave up on the yarn company bringing in the right color green. I settled for a lighter color blend and do not love the lack of contrast. Wendy, the recipient, however thinks it looks just fine. So, I will continue knitting and see how it comes out and if I have enough lavendar, or if I will return for more lavender, some turquoise or a darker purple to bring the contrast back and play with variegated colors. In the end, whether things go well, I think I'll have a lovely scarf. Tell me what you think, ladies and gents. Until next time,

Happy Knitting
Ta-Da! They're Off the Needles!
September 20, 2018
Ta-Da! They really are, finally, off the needles. However, they are far from being done! Most of my brilliant ideas happened when I began to knit sock 2, or after some experience. I did finish the teal, and left about 5" of yarn to sew up an imperfectly cast on toes…I have a feeling I may be adding purple to the toes…but we'll find out if I ever actually finish these. It's tempting to drop the bag in the pile on the table and leave it.
Front view of the socks…
I know, I know, Finish it, already. In my defense, I took the tapestry and chenille needles (to reinforce heel and toes on sock #1) to class and then left them in my car. (I really don't know how that happened), so I started playing with the new cast on. If you look at the photos of the bottom of the feet, the second sock may look more dense (Not sure my camera is that good, though.)
Back view…it may be hard to tell which is one or two…
I decided touching up would wait as it just got cool enough to start wearing wool socks again. Ah, yes, Fall, or Autumn, season of repairs and reflecting…it is arriving soon. I had to catch one last glimpse of summer though.
Late summer flowers, so cute (and I don't care if they're weeds…they weren't weeded out)
In the meantime, I decided to cast on my next pair of socks and to start knitting "Mock Cables and Lace" by Ann Budd, fresh out of Sock Knitting: Master Class. I'm two full rows in, three with the cast-on, and I realized, I'm not sure how to set up two at a time, cuff down socks on circular needles. When I see a 40" circular needle used, I expect to knit two at a time. Once I get them cast on correctly or set up to work with me…I'll be fine to follow the pattern(I hope). In the meantime, I have to find the DVD or hit Youtube videos really hard until someone who has done this before explains it to me;-).
I still need to finish this baby…it would be nice to do before Quilt retreat…
Alas, I may also hope to find the Tatami cotton blend yarn back in stock, or may have to find a substitute brand and knit dish rags out of the new skein when it comes in, as October is coming;-), and I want those attached strings, finished and cut off, this time;-).
Choices Made Easier
June 14, 2018
Cornhole boards…nothing says summer like cornhole boards…My niece wants to bid on them at Art Reach. They are not yet finished.
How do you choose whether to knit or quilt or paint Cornhole (Bean Bag toss) boards this week? The easiest way to make this choice is to run out of yarn after a tough row, and to get a last minute email requesting the Cornhole boards be painted.
Close up of my progress…try not to count the stitch mistakes, please. They shouldn't be noticeable in the end.
I got my second repeat of row one on the Indian Cross Scarf finished, and hoped I had enough yarn to finish row two and maybe row three. I was pretty sure I was going to the yarn store this week. I just finished row two for the second repeat and found I had about sixty inches of yarn left. That's sixty inches to cover 216 stitches + 7/9 extra stitches, which I'm not redoing. I had won the yarn chicken battle, but I would not win the war. The skein is out. As for the extra stitches, this is exactly why decreases were invented. I'll recount before I start, after I pick a good join, and divide that number by 216 to figure out how often I need to decrease to keep it even. I also have the option of finding the stitches where I knit 9 stitches into 8 and decreasing there, but I think the even decrease will be less obvious.
Current progress on the Indian Cross Scarf.
I also decided I had only three choices for the yarn chicken loss, but they're not great choices. I could use another yarn, but I don't have any cotton and acrylic, and I want these yarns to look close. I could knit with an entirely contrasting yarn…but I didn't work that in from the beginning, and it won't provide the effect I want. The third choice is most satisfying all around: I can buy more yarn.
Same brook, different view. Such a lovely little space.
I decided to walk into the yarn store today and get more yarn, so I could pick a join, knit this up over the weekend, I hoped, and finish this to present at quilt retreat. The yarn store was out of this yarn color and didn't have any good substitutes since I still have close to a third of this scarf left to knit. Luckily I had kept the label and she's ordering another skein for me.
I can't think of a better place to read, knit, or relax right now…at least not within driving distance.
However, in the meantime, I'll show you some pleasant places for future knitting between appointments or after exams when I don't wish to study. I stumbled across the mini brook in the afternoon as I decided to prep for a writing appointment, which I moved to the gazebo, fountain and now brook area of my school's campus. In the future, I may be found knitting there…or at least sneaking some photos…I think it will change as the year goes on, I mean…Look at this beauty.
Only two boards to paint, but I had to include the horn and unicorn hair artist, Jessica, posing with her work.
I also ended up with two Cornhole boards to paint this afternoon, once I confirmed my partners in crime were willing to lend me space. I may still be a little high on spray paint fumes, but it's worth it so far…And they're not done. Whatever you think of them, they're not done yet. I'll post that in the next couple of weeks when I can get better photos of the finished boards.
Once Again, I'm About Halfway There…
June 7, 2018
One of my favorite knitting phrases is "I'm halfway there." The project starts to take shape and really look like what it's supposed to become in this half. In addition, I know the end of any monotonous rows will come…I can hope. When you've cast on 216 stitches, you keep wondering if you're ever truly close to halfway or if you need to count all the way to three-quarters of the way there.
Beginning of the crossover stitches…this is what happens when you begin to knit, wrap the needle three times, complete the stitch and drop the elongated stitch in the next round.
But I like still having something to knit, while seeing it take shape. I like finishing and casting on a new project…but there's a sense of sadness in finishing…even with the Ta-da moment. There's a nice since of new as you steady the needles in the beginning. But the real magic happens at the halfway point…the design takes shape, the pattern shows through and you feel as if you are creating something special. Considering the number of stitches you put into each piece, you are creating a labor of love.
This is how it looks once you cross four stitches over the other four stitches (yes, you are counting to 8 27 times), then knit them…it is a pretty effect
This week's labor of love is pretty simple, a little fun, but not my style. It's crossing over elongated stitches to make a great pattern called the Indian Cross Scarf. I did figure out what I was doing, and the knitting became smoother and easier after that, but it's just not my thing. I'd almost rather cable across a total of 144 stitches any day. But I'm enjoying making this for a friend and wondering what in the 101 Designer One Skein Wonders, edited by Judith Durant I shall knit next.
Half-way there on the Indian Cross Scarf…
I'm considering felted bowls or some matching hat, scarves and mitten/gloves patterns. Oddly, there aren't many matching patterns out there. I'm a little surprised at that, but then, I haven't taken the time to simply sit down and actually work out and design a pattern to create my own matching hat, gloves and scarf set. (Gloves may mean mittens, I'm undecided on knitting fingers yet.)
This is another angle of what half way there looks like. It is turning into a lovely scarf.
In the meantime, on those stealth argyle socks, I've begun to make the toes for the second sock and can knit up to the size 3 needle point. Then I have to measure yarn and divide and hope for the best.

Snarky Puppy
Dunno what most people on here's view on Jazz fusion-y stuff is but I haven't listened to anything else this year as good as these guys.
http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=L_XJ_s5IsQc. - the keyboard solo from halfway through is unreal!
Saw these guys on Tuesday for the second time
Struggle to think of a live band I'd recommend more highly. Sure it's a bit music studenty (in fact 90% of the crowd is either music students or dads) and show-offy but it's so much fun. And they are the most insanely talented musicians, it's just absurd.
They won a Grammy for this this year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0SJIgTLe0hc
She sings a *chord* ffs.
Also this album is amazing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZBlRkF0-to&feature=kp
And this bit of this song sounds like Flying Lotus: http://youtu.be/gQ99OMlI5cg?t=7m13s
You're definitely right on the crowds, can't see them appealing to many other demographics though
Yeah they're insanely talent, not heard many better rhythm sections.
Those chords she's singing are ridiculous! Love the reactions of the band to it
quite enjoyed the clips here
can't help but think I'd prefer to be listening to Zappa circa Hot Rats whenever I hear anything slightly like this though
easy to catch the wrong one
but yeah Snarky Puppy would be fun live I think

Tourism is big industry in Jinja, so there are many job opportunities in the service industry. In our Work 4 A Living program, we seek to equip and empower unemployed youth to get jobs and start businesses. Since the service industry has so many available jobs, we have begun running a new service and hospitality training program through Work 4 A Living called SERV with Excellence. This program is by invitation only as candidates need to have completed Work 4 A Living with a 3E (Excellent) or 4E (Exceptional) certificate and exhibited a servant heart in the program.
We take up to 10 students through a two week training program where we begin with character, servanthood, and service excellence and then move to hard skills such as taking orders, carrying trays, clearing tables, etc.
We had seven students achieve certificates in our first class and four have already found jobs in the service industry.
We sent two of our graduates for an interview for one open position at a very popular restaurant in Jinja and the owner couldn't decide between the two. She wanted to test them out for two days each so she could make a decision on who to hire. After their two day trial, she still couldn't decide between them and hired them BOTH!
We are very excited to be able to offer this new program in Jinja and put well trained, Spirit-filled, discipled people who know how to work to a standard of excellence into the workplace!

New Releases: Week of 9/10/17
Kalvin Martinez / Sep 10th, 2017 No Comments
There is no letting up. The new video games keep coming. Like the last few weeks, there is a lot of stuff coming out to keep you excited. We'll highlight a few of them for you hopefully to make it easy for you to part with you money.
This week's new releases include Dishonored: Death of the Outsider, Tooth and Tail, and Metroid: Samus Return. Also releasing this week are Rayman Legends Definitive Edition, Time Recoil, Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana,NHL 18, Pro Evolution Soccer 2018, and NBA Live 18.
Tooth and Tail – PS4, PC – September 12
The world of Tooth and Tail is in turmoil. With crop failures, all the animals have taken to eating meat. One issue arises from this, who gets eaten and who eats? The stress over choosing a meat source has lead to Civil War.
Revolution is sparked from the War for Meat when four different factions clash. The Longcoats, the Commonfolks, the KSR, and the Civilized all vie to come out on top. Each faction features their own storyline in Tooth and Tail's extensive single-player campaign.
Tooth and Tail features real-time strategy with streamlined controls to give those new to the genre an easy entry point. The game's maps are procedurally generated resulting in endless replayability.
While maps' overall themes remain fixed, they are never the same conflict requiring an ability to strategize rather than memorize enemy placement and maps.
Matches are quick to play lasting five to twelve minutes meaning it is easy to pick up and play. Whether you are playing alone, online, or in couch split-screen, there are a lot of ways to play.
Dishonored: Death of the Outsider – PS4, Xbox One, PC – September 15
Billie Lurk rejoins her mentor Daud, the "Knife of Dunwall", the two conspire to pull of the greatest assassination ever: to kill the Outsider. To get the job done, Billie Lurk has to venture into the depths of Karnaca.
By unraveling the city's darkest secrets, she'll have to infiltrate underground fight clubs and black magic cults, and pull off a dangerous heist for ancient artifacts. Death of the Outsider sees an end to the Kaldwin era in Dishonored's first standalone adventure.
What helps Billie Lurk stand apart from previous protagonists is her powers aren't from the Outsider's mark. She derives her powers from artifacts with a connection to the Void. As such her gadgets and powers in Death of the Outsider are unique.
Her powers give her a lot of ways to sneak around levels. Displace gives her the opportunity to teleport between invisible markers she drops. Void Strike lets her push an enemy away creating space before attacking. Semblance lets Billie steal an enemy's identity to create the ultimate stealth. Foresight lets her get the lay of a level and place Displace markers and tag points of interest.
The game's gadgets give Billie a lot of way to slip out of tricky situations like the Hyperbaric Grenade to send a crowd of enemies into the air or a talisman that lets her commune with rats to learn Karnaca's secrets among others.
Death of the Outsider's New Game+ let's you replay the game with the ability to mix Billie's new arsenal with select powers from Dishonored 2.
Metroid: Samus Returns – 3DS – September 15
Samus Aran is the best at what she does. What she does is find Metroids and gets rid of them. Her mission is to investigate claims of Metroids in the interior of planet SR388. If she finds Metroids her job is to eradicate them.
When she scratches beneath SR388's surface there are indeed Metroids. The population isn't only growing rapidly, but it is evolving. She also finds evidence of an ancient civilization that may have ties to the creatures. What connections is there?
Samus will need to utilize all the tools in her arsenal to stop them once and for all.
Metroid: Samus Returns is a remake of the 1991 Gameboy game, Metroid II: Return of Samus. It features updated 3D graphics, new content, a 360 free aim mode, and new abilities. The abilities include ones from later in the series. These abilities will use a special energy source called "Aeion".
Launching alongside the game is a 2-pack amiibo set featuring Samus Aran and a Metroid. Super Smash Bros. Samus and Zero Suit Samus amiibos will also be compatible with the game. Each amiibo will unlock special content within the game.

Reasons to be an exclusive photographer
I am in microstocks photography since last summer, and when I startes I registered in all websites I found. In less than 6 months I have discovered why it's better to be an exclusive photographer (obviously in Dreamstime). Here you have my reasons:
1.You'll get better percentage of each download.
2.Dreamstime will give you 0.20$ for each accepted upload (I haven't this point in any other web site)
3. As usually the criteria to accept uploading images are different in each site, you have to do just what you know/think could be accepted.
My experience says me that Dreamstime is the best microstock site, because:
1.It isn't specially difficult to get a good acceptance ratio (of course if your images are high quality).
2.It is the site with more "traffic" (as more visits more relevance for your images)
3.The ratio of sales per image is the higher I have found.
For all of this… I am an exclusive Dreamstime photographer.

Well I'm regretting it now not being exclusive here. As I said in one of the comments, there is lots of money in DT than any other site. I have equal no of images in most of the sites but sales and income is 80 percent more in DT.
I advice newbies to be exclusive here and make more money and save lots of time submitting in every site.
congrats, I am too exclusive, and many reasons are close to mani33, especially the time.
Thank your posting,I will strive to become DT's exclusive photographer.
Enhorabona!! :)
I'm also exclusive and I don't regret :)
food for thought, thanks for the input :)
Congratulations! I think you did the right thing!
I had others reason when I had decided that!
1 It's easy to catch any fraud if you are an exclusive somewhere;
2 I don't have time to pay attention on other Microstocks;
3 The best community ever!
Good luck and Cheers ;)
Thanks for posting these reasons, I was sure there are benefits to being exclusive but did realize how appealing they are until your post.
I have 39 to go, slowly I'm getting there... My AR has gone down to below 30% but I'm still taking the rejections constructively. Someday I'll be there.
I'm very happy here!
Feedback on rejections can be thought of as upsetting or better as a tutorial in raising your game ! DT is good in this respect [ to date ! ]. David.
Congratulations for your decision, Antoni!

add() method of the
DataStore interface adds a new record to the data store; if the record you are attempting to add already exists, it will throw an exception.

- The object you want to add to the data store.
- You can specify an optional second parameter that will be a
DataStoreKeyof type unsigned long or
DOMString, if you want to give the added record a specific id. If you don't specify this, the object's id will be numeric (auto incremented).
- You can specify an optional third parameter that will be a

The following example function takes the current data store and an object to be added to the data store as arguments, adds the object to the store, and then creates a table row to display the object data in the app and appends it to an existing table in the DOM:
function addContact(store, obj) { store.add(obj).then(function(id) { var tableRow = document.createElement('tr'); tableRow.innerHTML = '' + obj.lName + '	' + obj.fName + '	' + obj.phone + '	' + obj.email + '	' + obj.address + '	'; tBody.appendChild(tableRow); var myId = id; console.log(myId); tableRow.setAttribute('data-id', myId); tableRow.onclick = function(event) { deleteItem(event); } }); }

Note that
add() isn't currently defined in the spec, but this should be updated soon. It will replace the now-deprecated

Starts: October 28, 2019 9:00 am | Ends: October 28, 2019 4:00 pm
Learn how to build relationships and show up authentically in the spaces we occupy while being aware of the impacts that our presence can carry.
Restorative Justice is a philosophy that analyzes the ways we show up and occupy spaces, interact and react to conflict, and actively oppose systems of oppression. It is an internal and cultural shift from punitive measures to a focus on healing harms when they occur. This shift is rooted in the value of building and maintaining relationships.
With Restorative Justice being implemented all over the nation in different places and spaces, there is an assumption that everyone involved has done the personal work that is required to successfully cause no further harm – which isn't always the case.
In this training, we will look at how we personally make this shift from punitive to restorative by exploring:
- Self-analysis
- Identity mapping
- The lessons learned through our childhood experiences
- Historical impacts
Through roleplays and community building interactions, we will explore how to be restorative in day-to-day actions and interactions.
Registration Details:
This training is for anyone who wants to bring a restorative approach to your daily interactions.
- Prerequisite: Prior training on Restorative Justice from Resolutions Northwest.
- Trainers: Stephen Fowler
- Date and time: Monday, October 28 from 9:00am – 4:00pm (lunch on your own)
- Location: Resolutions Northwest, 2538 NE Broadway, Suite A, Portland, OR 97232 – accessibility, transit, and other info here
Black and Brown participants:
Acknowledging that you carry the burden of added emotional and intellectual labor in conversations about racism in the educational system, RNW offers this workshop FREE OF CHARGE to participants of color. If your organization is able to cover the cost of your attendance, we certainly welcome part or all of the fee to support the work of RNW, in particular that of our Black staff & contractors.
This policy is neither an act of reparations or "micro-reparations"; it is a systemic offering to offset the harms caused by white people and the white gaze when trying to understand applied frames for equity.
White participants:
The fee for this workshop is $240. We ask each person to pay what you are able.
With a goal of holding about half the slots for Black and Brown participants, we ask you to share your identities, particularly around race and gender, and to answer a couple of questions about what you need to get from the training. When you complete that, you will be placed on a waiting list. We will confirm registrations individually so that we can be mindful of who will make up our learning community.

The reduction to writing of an agreed-upon understanding among parties can sometimes be viewed as a cursory step in formalizing a business relationship. Yet the manner in which concepts are expressed on a page is often as important as the concepts themselves. Solid contract-drafting skills are therefore essential tools to any professional who deals with transactions or business relationships. Unfortunately, although contract counterparties might have the best of intentions, many contracts—even those drafted by experienced attorneys and those relating to the most prominent of transactions—are plagued with ambiguities, inconsistencies, unintended imprecision, and "bloat" from unnecessary legalese, rendering them confusing, risky, and potentially very costly.
Select Issues in Drafting Contracts: Analyzing Ambiguities and Contract Boilerplate builds upon PLI's immensely popular Fundamental Concepts in Drafting Contracts: What Most Attorneys Fail to Consider.
The first half of this course will address various contract-drafting topics, including:
- A recap of basic and intermediate drafting concerns
- Formulas
- Attachments to contracts
- Ambiguity relating to modifiers and qualifiers
- Contract interpretation principles
The second half of the course will cover drafting issues relating to contract boilerplate, including provisions concerning the following topics:
- Parties, beneficiaries, and obligees (assignment and delegation, successors and assigns, third-party beneficiaries)
- Interpretation of a contract (amendments, waivers, merger/integration clauses, captions/headings)
- Enforcement of a contract (severability, governing law, forum selection, waiver of jury trial, remedies)
- Other common terms (force majeure, further assurances, transaction costs, notices, counterparts)

eFootball PES 2020 MAC Download – eFootball PES 2020 MAC
Fresh procreation of Pro Evolution Soccer football simulators. The 2020 edition adds a more successful inflow to multi-person healing (especially in the fact of electronic sports games), claims a lot of simplifications due to methodology and diagrams. Take eFootball PES 2020 present an additional episode of the brilliant sequence of Pro Evolution Soccer football simulators. Manufacturing loads having blackmailed into a physical online game also throws stadiums in a volatile methodology. The Japanese name Konami is momentous for its course and disappointment, steadily extending the sequence from the preclusions of its beginning in 1996 (However, the birth of this trait is constantly used in legend – the eternal curious as International Superstar Soccer). Andres Iniesta, a fairy tale from the FC Barcelona collection, got involved in the comedy. The next operation of the collection of Pro Evolution Soccer football simulators. The 2020 edition intertwines the numerous robberies into politics of multiplayer speculation (especially at the height of e-sports instability) while enabling tremendous regeneration in war engineering, also pictorial development. eFootball PES 2020 MAC Download is the last other variation of the familiar sequence of Pro Evolution Soccer simulators. Fabrication, of course, hides a more real stimulus on e-sports variations, and trains about substantial improvements in the game's methodology. The auction of her dissertation and the issue of calling back the Japanese name Konami, which has consistently improved the current edition since its creation in 1996 (the birth of the last class forever considers a piece of commonwealth with an adventure – then ancient understood under the brand International Superstar Soccer). In the game, the assistant was the stopwatch Andres Iniesta – the report of the FC Barcelona team.
eFootball PES 2020 Download is therefore an excellent football simulator that puts countless authenticity in plastic receivables. The list of previous books includes a set of corrections, such as the changed mode of acquiring also adding football, changed numbers and the mechanics of assembling a fighting game, thanks to which we can accommodate cover entrances. – live paroxysms and tactically use the resourceful embrace on earth. The designer also documented a collection of extra bangs (in the fate of a different taste of dribbling, and a lot of help to escape the contestants), additional poses (like a hit on a "constitutive ball"). Imperious transposition to write down once in the Master League cut – the strings of disposing of the movement have been improved (guaranteeing smarter censorship of diplomats) and a conscious interactive cut has been made available. In eFootball PES 2020 MAC Download you can take inside for free, loosely taste with delightful. In counter to the various classes of the party, the bagpipes are stitched with a surprise for many players – exceptionally in legitimate circumstances (e-sport). Developers have also put in a gradual Matchday element, in which policies establish a lonely of two teams and cooperate with opposite penises of the set, compete in earnings while competing for check-in with other effects. eFootball PES 2020 free remembers the three-dimensional image harmony represented by the multi-level rung. eFootball PES 2020 is a perfect football simulator, stitching brand authenticity with non-conflict payoff. In the tribunal, the proportion has established the order of restructuring, such as the modernized complex for handling also describing the ball, improved take-up and combat efficiency, thanks to which we can perform efficient counterattacks while tactically employing the natural field for pitch. The architects took care of the sequence of the following bluffs (eg Original dribble bite while many actions to ignore the enemies) plus fun (eg 'From an important ball'). Restructuring is still important to bring out in the Master League order – the flow ordering technique has been reformed (which allows coarse tropical rating of politicians) additionally added favorite interactive conversation order
The fashions of the players smell, almost dear players were at the same time not excluded. They left the objects treated with the fastest calculation for the segments, the restoration restored by completing photogrammetry engineering (3D scanning). Compared to the previous alternative, the turf description, whitening scheme and plucking of the community were refined. Additional curiosity is interested in very wise animated panoramas, modeled on assisting interactions with lawyers. IGN has printed on YouTube a central recording of the attraction PES 2020 Download – the most fashionable edition of the iconic turn of the Pro Evolution simulators in the E3 2019 expedition. , eFootball PES 2020 MAC Download would like to provide different methodology for dribbling (denoted by bizarre dribbling), more efficient separation engineering also replaced ball physics. Konami clearly denies that many leather-skinned opinion experts would live to be suggested for production. In eFootball PES 2020 we can also sound left when mixed. After all, in contrast to the papa installment, insincerity tolerates the impact on multi-person buffoonades – especially in the racial (e-sport) version. The creators also pushed deeply a peculiar Matchday trifle, in which diplomats poison in any of the two provinces plus participate in the pack, adding to the action the competition for a place in a hundred times.
Because the set is getting ready to flow, you can communicate at. An individual among the changes treated by Andrzej Bronzoni among Konami is the modification of the flagship menu, which requires planning intense and salty tones. He also emphasized that the undamaged studio has the surprise of cooperating with FC Barcelona – Andrzej Iniesta, who helped plan the game. We understand the bang that Ronaldinho will be the murder of this year's "fairy tale alternative". I have to mark that individual engravings construct a dry experience. Appearance styles are resolute, as Jaap Stam covet Roy Keane. Retors drag "intensely", which only multiplies the feeling of playing a hearty match. It is also worth noting that the narrators have made the transition, that the celebrity left before the tournament crossed out on television. Let's focus on one comedy. Like every year, Konami rationalizes the strange heads of footballers. In the modern convergence, we require soaking up the manufacturers, because the duplicity given does not reveal too much. EFootball PES 2020 MAC Download creates a three-dimensional image application, which is supported by a comprehensive title. The arguments of politicians are asking strong card players and they are very realistically stimulated. The objects that survived sincerely mapped thanks to the use of photogrammetric technology (three-dimensional scanning), were also treated with prudence inside the pronoun. In clash with previous editions, the nature of the turf has been modernized, the lighting scheme is also a solution for users. The second reorganization is quite well wake up, conducting e.g. interactions with mediators.
You can see why you think the writer intended to transform the company of his stage. Instead of a thick definition (Pro Evolution Soccer), we used the PES pathological sketch and the prefix "eFootball" appeared. Manufacturers dream of accumulating on computer body masks. Do we exist with fabulous competition for the FIFA series?

Financial matters can sometimes become hard to swallow a pill for some couples, which can create a lot of misunderstandings and conflicts. It is important that the couple keep their financial problems in check and share it with each other to get the support they need. Here are some financial advisors that couples need for a stable and happy life.
Create separate accounts and a joint account
Sometimes this question can keep the couples in a dilemma, and they face arguments over it. But the simplest way to solve this problem is creating both types of accounts – private and joint. This way, both the couples can use their money independently, and the joint savings can be used for any disaster which strikes their lives. The idea of having separate joint accounts lessens the sense of unity in marriage and shows the lack of trust in one another.
Track how the money is being spent
Couples should make monthly plans to get everything they need each time and set a budget for it together. Tracking the spending does not mean that you are not allowed to make independent decisions. It means that you need to keep a record for your expenses so that you know where your money is going. This will help you make better decisions in future money management. Both should know and be comfortable with the spendings.
Set your financial priorities together
A financially stable couple knows what they need and what they want. All the priorities for a couple should be kept in check before they can think about spending on miscellaneous expenses. The plans can different for each side and can fire up the conflicts. This matter can be controlled with the help of a good financial advisor who can advise on spending money also make interesting plans for a good life.
Save 10% of your income
Couples should make monthly savings of as little as 10% of their incomes so that they can have enough money during their retirements. The decision of making a saving is the first thing a couple should do on opening a joint account. It will provide independency for both during the retirement years.
Handle debt as a couple
Debt can become a problem for one of the person, but it can cause damage to the lives of both. Couples need plans to pay down the debt for each other because if a person has a debt before marriage, it can affect the credit ratings of the spouse as well.
Do not keep any secrets
It is very important in a relationship that everything is shared with each other. Especially in the case of finance, keeping secrets will only create more shocking reactions on realizing it later. Not being honest about the big purchases or hiding the debts from each other can cause financial infidelity and can also ruin a relationship.

Interested in rooting for one of the NFL's 32 teams -- but don't know where to start? Adam Rank has you covered with this series, which will present a handy guide to becoming an instantly rabid fan of each organization in the league. Below, find out why you should root for the Chicago Bears.
What you need to know so you don't sound stupid
The Chicago Bears are one of the benchmark teams in the NFL -- second only to the Green Bay Packers in terms of total league titles. (And if you thought I was going to willingly give the Packers credit for all of their pre-Super Bowl titles without some sort of ulterior motive, well then, we haven't hung out enough.)
The Bears have a single Super Bowl title, but what a title it was. The 1985 Chicago Bears are the unquestioned greatest team of the Super Bowl era. A defense that was nothing short of legendary and an underrated offense that actually finished second in the league in total points. Only one bad half of football in Miami on a Monday night prevented this team from being perfect. (Oh, that's right. For all of you who like to say stupid [stuff] like, "You're lucky the Bears didn't face the Dolphins in Super Bowl XX," realize DC Buddy Ryan made the adjustments at halftime and held Dan Marino to just seven points after the break. So cram it.)
So ... The Bears won the first-ever NFL Championship Game (played indoors at Chicago Stadium in 1932), beat the Redskins 73-0 in the most lopsided NFL title game ever in 1940, took home Super Bowl XX and made a Super Bowl appearance I've been able to block from my mind. And then Jay Cutler.
Was the Jay Cutler era THAT bad?
People don't like Jay's face and they do like to make fun of him. But Cutler never got a fair shake because he seemingly played for a new offensive coordinator every year. Every. Damn. Year. One of them being Mike Martz, who nearly got him killed with his ridiculous schemes and then traded away Greg Olsen, the best tight end of his generation. (Yes. He. Is.) So thanks, Mike. And Cutler was much better than people give him credit for. And by people, I mean my new best friend and former "Bachelor" Nick Viall, the Packer backer who told me that having Cutler as our most prolific passer in club history was "shameful."
I can't completely disagree. It's been a tough run for us. Here are the top five Bears quarterbacks of my lifetime:
(Anybody but Rex Grossman. Because had Lovie Smith started anybody but Rex Grossman in Super Bowl XLI, the Bears would have two titles. Peyton Manning would have never really won a Super Bowl. And all would be right with the world.)*
So yes, Nick, it might be shameful. Not everybody gets to see a HOF quarterback in their lifetime, let alone TWO back-to-back. But while I was the last Cutler fan, I realized it was time to let him go. I'm hopeful for the Mike Glennon era. Though, he's never going to get a fair shot because people would rather make Yarael Poof jokes and show the world how funny they are. But Glennon could be something special. I mean, the only person who didn't believe in him was Lovie when he was the head coach in Tampa Bay. I take that as a good thing.
BTW, if you want to buy Jay's Lake Forest mansion, have it at. It'll only cost you a cool $4.75 million.
How do you defend the Mitch Trubisky pick?
Oh, I didn't. I kind of went on tilt when the pick happened. (So much so, I went on YouTube to vent my frustration.) I even missed the Titans taking Corey Davis.
But I liked the move once I had a chance to calm down. For starters, the Bears didn't give up that much. After maneuvering with later picks, the Bears essentially gave up a fourth-round pick to grab the quarterback they coveted. Compare that to the price the Chiefs paid for Patrick Mahomes and the Texans for Deshaun Watson. It's the cost of doing business. Like paying $12 for a Bud Light at O'Hare. It's the law of supply and demand.
And I know I said I liked the Glennon move. Still do. He's going to be the starter this year. Here's the best-case scenario: Glennon balls out, the Bears win some games and he becomes the long-term answer. That would move Mitch Trubisky into that mythical Jimmy G territory, where the Bears would be able to extort some QB-starved team for a bevy of picks. It's a great move.
If Glennon doesn't translate, then you have a young quarterback to develop. I don't get how more folks don't understand this. I mean, it took me a minute to get my composure, but I'm on board now. Sorry, general manager Ryan Pace. I didn't mean to doubt you.
Must follow
Kyle Long is pretty hilarious on Twitter. He's started being more, uh, forgiving to the haters. But he's still an entertaining fellow.
Monsters of the midway
The Bears have long been known for their defense. They had four of the best linebackers who ever played the game: Bill George, Dick Butkus, Mike Singletary and Brian Urlacher. Then you consider dudes like Richard Dent, Dan Hampton and Mike Brown. There has been a lot of defensive talent on this team.
The current strength of the Bears stands with their front seven. I know I'm a biased [poop]head, so take Gregg Rosenthal's word for it. He said the Bears are a playoff team. Stop, stop. I'm kidding. He didn't say that. He just gave a fair assessment that the Bears' strength is in the front seven. There are still some holes on this roster. The secondary is all right. They could use another receiver, though I don't hate the Victor Cruz signing because we need complementary WRs to go with Cam Meredith. But this front seven could be really, really nice.
Not enough credit
Some [jerk] questioned Matt Forte'sHall of Fame credentials the other day, and let me tell you, that's my trigger. Because I won't stand for the heresy. I would imagine part of the problem stems from the Bears having two of the five greatest running backs of all time in their history (G.O.A.T. Walter Payton and Gale Sayers). It's something that dogged Neal Anderson, too, post-Walter. But let me put it to you this way ...
Mybestfriend, I mean Forte, is closing in on 15,000 all-purpose yards. He was clearly one of the best running backs of his generation. And I like to now measure all HOF credentials against Jerome Bettis (who shouldn't be in the HOF, but he played for the Steelers and people liked his nickname). And really, find me an NFL fan who would have rather had Bettis than Forte in their primes. You can't (unless they are a lying Steelers fan).
The franchise's best
Don't let that one point escape you, either. Walter Payton is the best running back to ever play the game. He played for some [poopy] teams and was still a boss. Plus, he played past that 30-year-old barrier that knocks down other running backs. He could catch. He could run. And he could even throw the ball. The only guy I can really remember who did anything close to him is LaDainian Tomlinson.
Next in line
Jordan Howard was a fifth-round pick of the Bears last season, and he ended up being the lone bright spot on offense. Well, other than Cameron Meredith, who was a nice surprise. So it's up to Howard to carry it for the Bears this season. And a lot of you haters will be all, "He's this year's Todd Gurley," which is baseless because, a) the Bears' interior offensive line is rad; b) the Bears' offense has plays designed for the current version of the NFL, and not what Jeff Fisher was running for the Rams; and c) screw you for putting that on him, man.
Way overrated
Nobody. The Bears are never given enough credit. I guess you could say Mike Ditka for winning only one Super Bowl. But, uh, it's hard to win Super Bowls. (Unless you're the Patriots.) The Bears competed against one of the two greatest dynasties in NFL history, the 1980s 49ers, who had Joe Montana. The Bears started Steve Fuller against the 49ers in the 1984 NFC Championship Game. If Jim McMahon had been healthy in '84 and '86 (when Chicago had to start Doug Flutie against Washington, thanks to Charles Martin -- nice way for the Packers to say thank you to the Bearsafter George Halas saved their franchise years previously), it would have been a three-peat. So shut your cake holes.
Mind you: The Charles Martin hit would be the most upset I would ever see my father. And I once crashed his company car.
Hipster jersey
It is a lot of fun to wear a Kevin Butler jersey. He was the original No. 6, before Jay Cutler. And people think you're wearing a Cutler jersey and get ready to say something [expletive] to you. But then they realize it's a Butt-head jersey and end up buying you a Goose Island (well, before Goose Island got sold).
Closing fun fact
I know a lot of people think Bill Walsh and the 49ers were a classy organization. But the 49ers ran up the score and tried to clown the Bears in the 1984 NFC Championship Game by putting guard Guy McIntyre in the backfield. Oh, hilarious. That inspired Ditka to use William Perry in the backfield in the following season, which led Ditka to run "The Fridge" and deny Walter Payton his rightful touchdown in Super Bowl XX. Something my dad took to the grave with him. Thanks, Bill.
Final snap
You should be a Bears fan. It's actually a lot of fun. Now, there hasn't been a lot of winning recently, but that just means we are due. We have Howard. (Perhaps we can be best friends one day.) The defense, as mentioned above, is really starting to come around. I know neither Glennon nor Trubisky is at the top of the NFL right now, but there is some hope there. And that's the cool thing. Hope. I remember when Cutler first came to the Bears. There was a lot of optimism. And heck, we did get to the NFC Championship Game, only to lose to the [expletive] Packers. Oh man, I forget what my point is. Oh, yes! There is hope for the future of this team.
And let me tell you: When this team does win a Super Bowl, it'll make last year's party at Grant Park for the Cubs championship look like the opening for a Food 4 Less. Chicago is going to rage. I'll never forget how happy my father was after the Super Bowl (well, maybe a little grousing because of Walter not getting a touchdown), but it was pretty magical. I hope to have that experience with my daughter one day, because it will be the best. The best!

|HFD Transfers Command to New Chief
|By Member Alan Zale
|January 2, 2020
The New Year brings a new Chief to the Hartsdale Fire Department.
At a Transfer of Command Ceremony on the apparatus bay floor at Station 1, HFD Deputy Chief Raymond Maseda was promoted to Chief and sworn in by Board of Fire Commissioners Chairman, Tony Frasca on Monday evening, December 30, 2019
Chief Maseda, a 21-year veteran of the department, became only the fifth chief in the 100 plus year history of the Hartsdale Fire Department. He replaces Ed Rush who retired after twenty-five years of serving the Hartsdale Fire Department, the last ten years as chief. Maseda was promoted to captain in 2004 and Deputy Chief in 2011.
The ceremony began with the Westchester Fire Department Emerald Society Pipe Band escorting in the HFD Officers and Commissioners in an opening procession.
Retiring HFD Chief Ed Rush welcomed everybody and then led the Pledge of Allegiance, followed by Department Chaplin, Rabbi Harry Pell, who led an opening prayer.
Commissioner Frasca then swore in Firefighter Douglas Palmesi, who was being promoted to captain, and then Captain Chip Nanko who was being promoted to Deputy Chief.
Outgoing Chief Rush then delivered his farewell address, reflecting on his 25 years of service in the department. He thanked the Hartsdale Fire Commissioners along with all the firefighters and officers he worked with over the years. He finished with wishing Chief Designee Maseda the best of luck.
Maseda was then sworn in as the new chief by Commissioner Frasca, followed by the Maseda children pinning on his new chief's badge. Rush then presented Chief Maseda with his new chief's helmet, followed by an exchange of salutes. Maseda then addressed the audience.
Commissioner Frasca presented retiring Chief Rush with a plaque thanking him for his years of service to the department.
The evening concluded with Rabbi Pell delivering a closing blessing, followed by the Westchester Fire Department Emerald Society Pipe Band leading the new chief and fire commissioners out. Photos by Alan Zale
