The story of Boogie is the story of everybody who ever broke from tradition. Boogie has a six-year-old son named Darius. For Darius to grow up in a less violent place than his father did, a place where he doesn't have to expect aggression, Boogie has agreed to isolation, to risk the envy of his old friends, and to shoulder the hopes and possible futures of dozens of people, not all of whom would do the same for him. Boogie has to be away from Darius for weeks at a time. Boogie has to make it.
"What people don't understand is I'm by myself all the time. It be so much pressure on me, whether it's from friends, family, to — I get lonely all the time cause it's people who want me to still be extra — like, they feel like if I'm not being super turnt up or extraed out then I'm being fake. And then it's people that tell me, 'When you go kick it with your neighborhood, you going backwards.' Like, 'You shouldn't even be over there no more.' So then I just find myself like, 'Fuck.' I don't even know what to do. I just be chilling by myself most of the time. I'm still out here lost, when I really talk about this. I don't even know."
Boogie lives with his mom and his stepdad and his brother, Tiger, and Darius in Long Beach. He was born in Compton, and he sang in a church there when he was in his early teens, a church where he cliqued up and started banging. He is there less frequently now, but he's still there. One day we meet him at Weeder's house, someone you'll recognize from Kendrick's album cover, or the "King Kunta" video, or maybe Drake's Instagram. Situations that call for a lot of red clothing.
"I honestly have no idea why I'm still doing it," says Boogie. "I just can't turn my back to it. It's in my neighborhood; I love my neighborhood. I just grew to love it. I'm addicted to the evils over there, and I'm addicted to the positives I think could be over there. It's sick, but, yeah, it's the reality."
"I just can't turn my back to it. It's in my neighborhood; I love my neighborhood. I just grew to love it. I'm addicted to the evils over there, and I'm addicted to the positives I think could be over there. It's sick, but, yeah, it's the reality."
"Emotionally, he's all over the place," says Dart, who's Boogie's engineer. He's talking about "Make Me Over," a song on Boogie's most recent tape, The Reach, but he's describing most of Boogie's work. "He's opposing gangbanging, the culture, as it is now, but he's a advocate and hopeful for the future of gangbanging, if that makes sense. He's not explicitly saying this, but you can kind of tell in the way he raps and the words he uses, he hopes that he can turn this culture around and turn it into something positive. I think that's the precipice."
It is a precipice. It is completely daunting. But this is where Boog is now – he wants the ball. "I'm just cool with the pressure and the weight. I be trying to act like I'm stressed out about it all the time, like, 'Oh, man, I gotta deal with this,' but, honestly, I think I like that shit. I come to realize I like that shit. I got no problem with it." What's confusing is Boogie isn't yet able to say what that something positive might look like, or how we might all get there. "I keep saying that I don't want to leave – I don't want to be that dude that make the money and leave. I feel like I'd be a hypocrite, and everything I rap about I'd be contradicting myself. I just want to make our neighborhood a better place. And then hopefully that start a chain, of other neighborhoods becoming better places."
There is an amount of willing this better place into existence happening within Boogie's circle, or speaking it into being. One night I'm having a pretty philosophical conversation with Keyel, who's produced the bulk of Boogie's music to date, and he recommends I read The Secret. I don't say that to say you should sleep on The Secret. You shouldn't. And Keyel should write books.
"If I knew – I don't see no pros to it, honestly, but I see how it can be appealing to kids," says Boogie. "Like, it was appealing to me. We all here hanging out, the girls think we tight, this is our neighborhood anyway, we might as well represent it. All these feelings go through your head as a kid."
The Ladder (A Short Film)
The story of Boogie is the story of everybody with debt.
Boogie's DJ, Dezzie, is with him on the road. That's a new job for him – he just started DJing eight months ago. But way back in the day, he shot a video for Boogie, the one that caught the eye of Boogie's now manager, Clayton Blaha. Today, Boogie says he's been thinking about how he's gonna thank Clayton in his Grammy speech. Today, says Dezzie, "He has more stress and more opportunity. He had less stress and less opportunity before, but before all this occurred, I don't think he knew what he was gonna do. He was lost. I feel like he was lost and he was searching for a way out of what he was getting into."
Boogie's music has become his way out, and maybe a whole bunch of other people's way out, too. Dezzie calls Boogie a ladder – not a ticket. "Everybody around him is gonna get looked at," he says, referring to himself, and Keyel, and Dart. There are other people further removed from Boogie who see him as their chance.
"Around here, everybody want to be the top dog. Everybody wants to be Kendrick. You know? Everybody can't be Kendrick. Everybody's not talented as Kendrick. People outside of his circle now is reaching to him, trying to grab onto him. If they could grab onto him, it's like, 'Oh, I can make it, this is my opportunity. This is my way out.' But it's not like that."
We're not crabs, because we're not animals. And there's no barrel, because there's no out, as such. No matter where you go, there you are. For Boogie to make enough money for Darius to live far enough away that he can't get touched, he has to disobey the codes he previously lived by. He has to become different. No one will make it easy.
"I was never no hardcore gangbanger, but out here it's like guilty by association. So if you grew up in the neighborhood, you from that neighborhood. So if somebody ask where you from, you gotta say you from this neighborhood. So even if I don't say I gangbang, I'm still from this neighborhood, so they gonna look at me as a gang member." The stakes go even higher once Darius is involved. "When I'm approached in front of my kid, I could either look like a punk and make him think that it's OK to be a punk, or I could stand up and look ignorant, make him – seem like it's OK to gangbang. When it happened I'm stuck in the middle, like how do I still look like a man in front of my kid but not look ignorant? You got a split second decision, cause if I stumble on my words I'ma look like a punk regardless."
We're not crabs, because we're not animals. And there's no barrel, because there's no out, as such. No matter where you go, there you are.
The story of Boogie is the story of everybody who's ever had to deal with manhood, or masculinity, or just a man.
We're talking in front of his house in Long Beach. Gay marriage is not yet the law of the land, but the decision won't change the near universally held belief that weakness equates with either homosexuality or femininity, your call. We're like an hour in no traffic from the Hollywood sign, 22 years beyond Eazy-E calling Dre a studio gangsta and eight after Tony Soprano. Scorsese's bringing Sinatra back. Lot of people been making money off the bad guy. The roughneck. It's glamorous, somehow. He still just does it for us.
Boogie is frustrated by how gangbanging is portrayed in social culture and music and the news media. For this he blames women. "I think it started from girls hyping up gang members. You know girls always want the rebel dude. So now the new rebel is the gang member. So they feel like, to stand out as a man, you have to be a gang member." Also hip-hop: "Girls is the reason for gang members, and half of it is the rappers, too. Cause these rappers make it seem like they just sleeping in the trap all day – like they go to sleep with kilos, when they somewhere in a bigass house. Why are you lying to people? I'm never gon' talk about no trap, cause I tried to sell weed before, and it didn't work for me. But I never sold no white, and I'm pretty sure half of the rappers that say they did, didn't. Or they just knew somebody that did and they making it seem like it's they story. But that person who's selling white don't even want you telling that story. You feel me? Cause he don't even want to be there. It's weird."
When he was a kid, he just said, girls thought he was tight because he was banging. For Boogie to make enough money for Darius to live far enough away that he can't get touched, he's gonna have to continue operating in an industry that is funded by make believe and misapprehension.
"I was never no hardcore gangbanger, but out here it's like guilty by association. So if you grew up in the neighborhood, you from that neighborhood. So if somebody ask where you from, you gotta say you from this neighborhood."
"The lisp he have? It remind me of Kool G Rap back in the days. See, they young. They probably don't know who Kool G Rap is. I'm 39. Kool G Rap was one of the hardest rappers back when I was in high school. Out of New York. And he had a lisp. And he had a smooth flow, so sometimes that make your delivery sound better. And then the stuff that he say is clever. You can tell that he smart in the head. Anybody can put some words together, but when you put some words together that make somebody think about it? That's clever." - Weeder
"Where we come from, it's hard. It's work work work. He have the opportunity to make chances and changes for people around here, in our section. He can bring us with him." - Cam
"I think people get caught up in 'I am who I am.' That's a belief system. And I guess, to a degree, you are. But on the other hand you can be who you want to be. And that's being who you are. That new person is still you. Cause you had intentions to be that. You have a desire for that, so you're in there. So why not be that?" - Keyel
"Probably when he was, I think maybe 16, 17 is when he really really started getting into it. When he was with his little group, Beast Gang, and they were performing at little small areas and stuff like that. And then he just broke away from there and he started doing his own thing. Once he broke away from them, that's when I knew he was serious." - Mom
"Before anybody came along and said, 'Boogie's tight,' I knew Boogie was tight. There was nobody around Boogie until he got that extra exposure. I feel like nobody really fuck with you until somebody else fuck with you. And that's sad. If you really like something, say you like it. Tweet, 'This Boogie song is tight.' Not, Complex music tweets Boogie. 'Oh, this Boogie song is really tight!' It's fake. I don't like people like that. I don't want to be around it." - Dezzie
"Boogie is frustrated by how gangbanging is portrayed in social culture and music and the news media. For this he blames women."
His inconsistencies will be catalogued. His success won't be enough to get everybody out, and people will want him to pay for that. He is aware.
"People gonna talk regardless. I don't really care to change people opinion. I'm just gon' do me, as far as that go. I just came up with this theory about a week ago, too. So I don't want to make it seem like I been had this idea." I say that's what's called becoming a man. "Yeah, for sure. Blossomed late," he says. He's 25. If anything, he's early. Hands up if you're mildly acquainted with a 45-year-old who desperately cares what you think of him.
I've talked with Boogie on five separate occasions since January. Every time he's been renewed, even though every other time he's at the bottom of an abyss re: Jamesha, the woman who covers Thirst 48. If you listen to his music, you've heard about Jamesha.
You know how when somebody has just fallen in love with you and they look at you, it's like light is coming through their face? And the light almost hides his face? Like his skin is not enough and the light is blaring out and he has no say? And you realize faces are temporary? When I'm first falling for somebody I'm always forgetting what their face looks like. If you know about these things, then you know why Boog and Jamesha are having such a hard time walking away from each other – they can't see each other clearly. Jamesha's vision is sharp, but it takes no prisoners. She is the person you want to be sitting next to you when you're in a house full of men about to be on camera, believe me. She might be more interested in fact-checking Boogie than she is in letting Boogie live.
When Boogie and Jamesha are on, Boogie, who still looks so young, has the light, but it's shaded by a little smugness, like he won an argument. When Boogie and Jamesha are not on, Boogie moves slower. These days, even when they're off, I can see the light in the back of his eyes.
I think he found the part of himself that isn't temporary. Keyel sees it too. "He's always been real, but it wasn't this way."
Boogie will keep waffling, relapsing, reverting – we all will. Because nobody wants to jettison their old self – you have history with that guy and he did have his moments and it's so strange that this world is not what you always thought it was. I mean, shit, how are we supposed to be both our old self and a self we kind of just met?
Boogie's gonna find out. And he's gonna tell everybody how. And that's our chance.

Where are you up to with Making Tax Digital (MTD)
This is an interesting article from ICAS about the Fact and Fiction on Making Tax Digital with some key dates and timing information:
Gall Robertson are delighted to be supporting the Lavender Touch, Wear Lavender to Work day
Held on 26th April 2019 the charity encourages local businesses to do what it says, wear lavender to work and collect donations which go towards their invaluable work supporting those with cancer in the Scottish Borders. At The Lavender Touch, they help to fund a completely confidential service to help people and carers who are struggling with the side effects associated with cancer and its treatment, in the Scottish Borders.
They offer therapeutic treatments, including massages, reflexology, and aromatherapy, through a number of qualified therapists, as well as soothing, moisturising and calming products that are freely available to buy through their shop.
Their services are fully tailored to suit patients' needs, and have been designed to work alongside cancer treatment from healthcare professionals. This helps to encompass a more holistic approach to dealing with your illness and recovery.
These treatments can be carried out via their therapy room at the Borders General Hospital, your local health centre, or even in your own home whatever makes you feel most comfortable.
As well as dressing in lavender you could have a bake sale, decorate the office or just bring the tin to the attention of your work colleagues. It can be fun and it will make such a difference to people living with cancer right across the Scottish Borders. Just the act of dressing up gets people talking about it, and raising awareness of the charity is a big part of our plans for growth.
It does not matter how large or small your workplace is. You could even link up with other organisations in your building. Everyone can join in. The idea is to wear lavender and donate to the cause.
Phishing emails
We are being contacted by clients about the number of phishing emails from HMRC that are being sent out at the moment.
The advice from HMRC is that you'll never get an email, text message or phone call from HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) which:
- tells you about a tax rebate or penalty
- asks for your personal or payment information
Check HMRC's guidance on recognising scams if you're not sure.
Reporting suspicious emails, texts or phone calls
You can report something suspicious to HMRC's phishing team, for example:
- a text message (forward it to 60599 - you'll be charged at your network rate)
- an email
- details of a phone call asking for personal information or threatening a lawsuit
If you receive a suspicious phone call, you can help HMRC's investigations by providing:
- your phone number
- the caller's phone number
- the time and date of the call
- a brief description of the call
HMRC phishing team
Your email address and phone number will be shared with other organisations if that's necessary to close down the scam.
Reporting a disclosure of personal details
Contact the HMRC security team if you think you've given any personal information in reply to a suspicious email or text.
Include brief details of what you disclosed (for example name, address, HMRC User ID, password) but do not give your personal details in the email.

Making Tax Digital delayed to 2020 at the earliest for taxes other than VAT
The government has amended the timetable and implementation intakes of Making Tax Digital (MTD).
Under the reformed timetable, only businesses with a turnover above the VAT threshold (£85,000) will have to keep digital records, and only for VAT purposes, starting from 2019. Businesses will not be asked to make the switch to MTD and update HMRC quarterly for other taxes until at least 2020.
While still wholly supporting the MTD initiative as a necessary move to modernise and streamline the tax system, the Treasury accepted the need to slacken the timetable and mandation around MTD in order to ensure businesses are able to comfortably transition. This means that 3 million of the smallest businesses and landlords will have the option to voluntarily make the switch to digital record keeping at their own pace before it becomes mandatory in no sooner than two years.
In this initial phase of MTD, businesses will not need to provide HMRC with information more regularly than usual, as VAT already requires quarterly returns.
The government came to this decision which has been welcomed by ICAS in Scotland having listened to concerns raised by ICAS, other professional bodies and parliamentary committees about the pace of change and the mandatory approach.
Under the new timetable:
- only businesses with a turnover above the VAT threshold (currently £85,000) will have to keep digital records and only for VAT purposes;
- they will only need to do so from 2019;
- businesses will not be asked to keep digital records, or to update HMRC quarterly, for other taxes until at least 2020.
HMRC will continue with their Making Tax Digital pilot and will start to pilot MTD for VAT by the end of this year, initially on a small, private scale and then widening the scope into a public pilot starting Spring 2018.
The government also addressed the hotly anticipated Summer Finance Bill, confirming it will be introduced following the summer recess, which concludes on 5 September. The bill will legislate all policies outlined in the pre-election Finance Bill, and all policies originally due to come into force in April 2017 will be effective from that date.
Making Tax Digital will be available on a voluntary basis for the smallest businesses, and for other taxes. Therefore, if the software works and genuinely delivers the promised benefits for businesses it will be possible for smaller businesses to choose to use it.
Another advantage of the new timetable is that it should allow time for agent services and software to 'catch up'. To date software for agents and agent access to client information has lagged behind, raising the possibility that if MTD had gone ahead as previously planned, businesses which wanted to use agents would have had difficulty complying.
ICAS continues to support the overall objectives of MTD for businesses; the new timetable should help to ensure that they are deliverable. However, there remain concerns about Making Tax Digital for VAT, for which the implementation date remains April 2019.
VAT concerns remain
Whilst most VAT returns are already submitted online, currently only 12% of returns are submitted direct from software. Many large companies cannot submit returns direct from software because of the complex nature of their VAT calculations, particularly for partial exemption. They therefore use spreadsheets.
It is understood that HMRC believe that it will be possible to integrate digital record keeping so that VAT quarterly updates can be generated and sent direct from the software the business (or agent) uses to keep their records. However, this will be difficult to achieve by April 2019.
It's not far away!
The deadline for 2016/17 benefit in kind P11d forms is fast approaching, along with the ( P11d(b) (Class 1A NIC contributions payable on benefits in kind). They need to be submitted to HMRC by 6th July 2017 where expenses or benefits were provided to any company director or employee in the tax year 2016/17 (covering the period from 6th April 2016 to 5th April 2017) which were not covered by an exemption or otherwise exempt from tax.
There is a penalty of £100 per 50 employees for each month or part month a P11d(b) is late.
If your adviser hasn't kept you informed about your submission then please come and talk to us at Gall Robertson.
We have recently welcomed two new starts at Gall Robertson.

Whether you're active on social media for personal or business reasons (or perhaps both), there are a zillion excuses not to be present on it, including…
- People are mean.
- People aren't responding to my posts/tweets
- It takes too much time
- It is useless
Great. So you deactivate your Facebook account and send your Twitter account into sweet oblivion. And then, a few days later, you feel the silence. It's a bit too quiet. And before you know it…
You're back! You felt lonely.
If you are a business owner, you've just taken a step backwards by damaging all your previous efforts to build positive engagement with your fans and followers. Social media doesn't sleep. If YOU do, people forget about you very quickly. Consistently is key.
The good news is that if you are the owner of a Facebook page, the page doesn't go away when you deactivate, however, if you're not there, you can't post on it! And you probably have heard that to permanently delete a Facebook account you'll go through oodles of time consuming steps to do so. Most people can't be bothered!
However, this is NOT true for Google+. Their support section states: If you downgrade or delete your Google Account so that you no longer have access to Google+, all pages owned by you will also be deleted. Poof. Note: downgrade and delete mean the same thing in Google speak.
And when you delete a Twitter profile; it's gone. Think of it as annihilation. No reinstatement here; you'll start from scratch all over again.
Social media is a commitment. It's there with you night and day; it's global, therefore it's in all time zones! There's always someone out there that will see your post or tweet.
And yes, social media IS frustrating as heck sometimes (hello, Facebook); however, it is so important that you stick it out once you've started to create a presence. The ultimate goal is to create awareness for your product or service; yes folks, this is real marketing, not a stroll in the park.
On the other hand, social media can be fun. How do you feel when a fan says something really nice about your product or service right on your page where other fans can see it? Isn't that a reassurance that all your efforts are getting some results for you?
Hang in there.
Paul Young sang a tune about staying in 1983. Sure hope you'll stay with us after stopping by the website, or our Twitter, Facebook, or Google+ accounts.

Matters - Get In Or Get Out (7")
Label : Independent
Credits : Production, Engineering, Mixing, on Track 2 "Wild Steps".
Info :
Matters was a Canadian indie rock band from Guelph, Ontario. The band consisted of Tim Bruton (guitar/synth), Kyle Donnelly (bass), John O'Regan (lead vocals/guitar/keyboard) and Greg Santilly (drums). They played rock music that had elements of punk, dance, and art rock, and used multiple transitions and hooks rather than traditional verse/chorus song structures.
Formed in 2005 as The D'Urbervilles while the members were students at the University of Guelph,[1] the band originally consisted of O'Regan, Bruton, Donnelly, and drummer C.L. Smith. Prior to Smith's departure, the band independently released their debut EP The D'Urbervilles, which reached No. 37 on earshot!'s Canadian campus and community radio charts for the month of May 2006.[2] The D'Urbervilles toured and recorded their debut album, We Are the Hunters, with replacement drummers Steve Hesselink and Adam Seward before selecting Santilly as a permanent member in the fall of 2007. We Are the Hunters was released on the Toronto label Out of This Spark on February 19, 2008 and hit No. 13 on the earshot! charts for the month of March.[3] The band completed work on their second full-length, although they have gone on record as saying it's unlikely to be released.
As the D'Urbervilles, the group has toured alongside Malajube, You Say Party! We Say Die!, Immaculate Machine and Forest City Loversin addition to performing at Pop Montreal, SXSW, Ottawa Bluesfest, and NXNE.

I can never just do two pigtails. That's very rare in our family. This was super easy, but it adds so much. To get the messy ponies: don't pull the hair all the way through, leaving a loop. I gather all the hair in the loop & kind of make a ball with it and just rubber band it and it makes cute messies!! I know - it sounds retarded the way I do it - I don't know how to word things. It's harder to write it down than just to show

Some background to this diary: In doing some research for another project I have been privileged to have in my possession the personal diary of Mrs. Emily Kelk. Emily was married in the Metropolitan Tabernacle in March 1882 to Thomas Kelk where they attended during the ministry of Rev. C. H. Spurgeon and where Thomas served as the assistant superintendent to Spurgeon's Orphanage. There are some very interesting and never-before-seen insights into Mr. Spurgeon's ministry which will appear in following excerpts from the diary (© 2011; published here with permission).
Prior to her marriage Emily attended another little Strict Baptist Chapel outside London in addition to Metropolitan Tabernacle. She writes here of that Chapel.

Smart pens to help control hand tremors
His team's project to combat the problem was one of two winners in the fall semester's mechanical and industrial engineering capstone course competition. Under the direction of associate professor Andrew Gouldstone, the group came up with two approaches to improving legibility and writing performance among people with tremors.
The team's passive approach guides the hand without sensing technology, according to group member Andrew Hickson. The active approach, he said, senses the characteristics of a tremor, sends the information to a computer that calculates an appropriate response signal, and then implements the response through electrical components inside a pen.
Within these two approaches, the team designed three solutions, all of which focus on velocity-dependent motion damping. "This is key," said team member Diego Solano, "because we don't want to damp all movement, just the bit that's caused by tremors."
The student researchers needed a way to test their designs, but faced a roadblock: Patient trials were not possible because of both time and feasibility constraints. One team member, however, Mariah Dellea, recalled her experience with postsurgery physical therapy, which used electrical impulses to stimulate muscle activity.
Using a standard, over-the-counter electrical muscle stimulation—or EMS—device, the team members simulated tremors in their own hands. Then they developed a testing protocol to ensure that the simulated tremors resulted in writing performance equivalent to that of patients. They also used the protocol to compare writing performance with and without their devices.
"We needed something safe and reliable but also quantifiable and repeatable," Solano said.
With the test method in place, the students began implementing designs, focusing first on the passive systems. They developed several customized, ergonomic grips, to stabilize the hand and make holding the writing instrument much easier, said team member Darren Mahoney. At the bottom of each, they implemented a magnetic contact that interacts with a plate containing metal filings in order to steady movement.
Another of Gouldstone's capstone teams developed an instrumented pen, equipped with six force sensors that can collect information about grip tension during tremors. The data could be useful in diagnostics as well as a resource for physical therapy clinicians. This group used the other team's testing protocol to analyze the utility of their device. Using the EMS, they demonstrated that grip force during tremor increases threefold over normal conditions.
Members of both teams have several research goals for next semester. Lauren Hess and Joseph Ranieri of the instrumented-pen team will continue working in Gouldstone's lab on other projects. Members of the corrective-pen team plan to further develop their passive system and will start work on the active systems. They also hope to initiate pilot studies with patients suffering from real tremors, rather than using the EMS to simulate the disorder.

A chance to build his own car seems like the perfect distraction. Until Cody realizes he'll have to live up to Race's legendary status. But that's the least of his worries, considering he doesn't have his dad's permission. All he has to do is the impossible: keep Race from discovering his lie until he can convince his dad that racing's safe.
Yeah, sure. That'll be easy.

Haven't read the first book? What are you waiting for? Running Wide Open is on sale now for 99 cents.
Cody Everett has a temper as hot as the flashpoint of racing fuel, and it's landed him at his uncle's trailer, a last-chance home before military school. But how can he take the guy seriously when he calls himself Race, eats Twinkies for breakfast, and pals around with rednecks who drive in circles every Saturday night?
What Cody doesn't expect is for the arrangement to work. Or for Race to become the friend and mentor he's been looking for all his life. But just as Cody begins to settle in and get a handle on his supercharged temper, a crisis sends his life spinning out of control. Everything he's come to care about is threatened, and he has to choose between falling back on his old, familiar anger or stepping up to prove his loyalty to the only person he's ever dared to trust.Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Running-Wide-Open-ebook/dp/B0054KNJ4K/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1307462286&sr=8-3-spell

It's finally finished. Almost six months to the day after I published Running Wide Open, I uploaded Getting Sideways. I'm shooting for three to four months to get Driven done, and I think I might be able to accomplish that, considering that I don't have to do any landscaping, publish anyone else's books, take a trip to California, or volunteer for any writing conferences. I also have absolutely no intentions of going camping, and though I am going to treat myself to a trip to Eugene, it will only be for a day. In other words, nothing but writing and marketing for the next three months.
I did my last major landscaping job for the season on Friday, a full two weeks after I'd normally be done. The last ten days of that were spent in colder than usual weather. If Mother Nature's going to be late with letting the leaves come down, she could at least keep the heat turned up a little longer.
It's been absolutely exhausting these last six weeks, doing double duty with the landscaping and the publishing. The pace I've had to keep up this entire year has been tough, but since the beginning of November, it's been particularly brutal. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. Normally during leaf clean up season I can come home and relax for the rest of the day, but when you're trying to put a book out, that doesn't happen. But that's all over with now. The landscaping is done. The book is published. And now I can finally get caught up on the social networking I've been ignoring (including reading all those blogs I've been neglecting) and make some serious strides with the marketing.
So here it is, launch day for my second title. I've busted my butt to get here, and I think it's time to sit back, relax, and enjoy it. If any of you would like to help me promote the book, feel free to tweet one of the following messages or post it on Facebook. Most of these links go the Running Wide Open, but I'm trying to promote that too, since a lot of people won't have read it.
"It doesn't matter if you are a racing fan or not, Running Wide Open will captivate you and capture your heart." – Cari J, Amazon reviewer
"The roar of engines practically explodes off the page in this compelling, heart-thumping debut. Cody Everett is a straight-shooter with attitude, smarts, and whip-cracking wit; he doesn't pull any punches, and neither does author Lisa Nowak. The collision of Cody and the world of stock car racing makes for a great story, one of the best I've read in a long time. Running Wide Open is a book not to be missed." - Christine Fletcher, author of Tallulah Falls and Ten Cents a Dance
"The racing is easy to understand and does not get in the way of a rattling good story. I still couldn't put it down on a re-read." – Elisabeth Miles, Amazon reviewer
"We race stock cars during the summer and even though this is a recommended read for Young Adults, we are seniors and enjoyed every page. We can hardly wait for the sequel to come out. MUST READING!" – Maxci Jermann, Barnes and Noble reviewer"I say read this book, it's fun, it's beautiful, it's a very cool read that will give you a feel-good state of mind. Awesome read." - L.E.Olteano, Butterfly-o-meter Books

A daily devotional through the recorded words Jesus spoke while He walked alongside us. Our website http://alittlewalkwithgod.com.
Mark 6:50
Jesus says, "Don't be frightened. Do you see?" Can you exercise just enough faith to open your eyes and see Me? Can you poke your head up above the rail just enough to recognize Me and see that I can do miraculous things in your life if you'll let Me? Will you take the blanket off your head and see that I can help you, that I can calm the storms in your life, that I can bring peace to your troubled heart?
Satan wants us to keep our eyes closed. Oh, he'll tell us that we are wise, just like he told Adam and Eve. They learned otherwise. He'll tell us the One out there on the water is something to be feared, something other worldly, something impossible to exist. But if we will just sneak a glimpse of the Man who beckons us, we will find we don't need to be frightened.
We will see Him walk out of the mist that the world tries to cloud Him in and we will recognize Him for who He is. We will see that Jesus is the Son of the living God. We will see that He can forgive our sins, fill us with His Spirit, and enable us to live the life He calls us to live. We will see the fog roll away and know that Jesus wants to do incredible things for and through us if we will just poke our heads above the railing. Or if we brave enough, like Peter to step out of the boat, we can be part of some wondrous water walking experiences of God's hand at work all around us.
Don't be frightened. Don't you see? It is Jesus.

Welcome to my website. If you're here, you are likely to be looking for someone to help you with a problem you are experiencing. Maybe you don't even know what the problem is but you know something isn't right and you'd like to explore that. Looking is a great start as it signifies both an awareness that there is something that needs to change and that you are ready to do this, or maybe on the cusp of being ready.
An important part of counselling, psychotherapy, coaching, soul facilitation or any other form of therapeutic work is that the person seeking help has taken the step to accept responsibility for their own healing. I work in many ways but they all have one thing in common. I am a facilitator providing you with the space, skills and therapeutic relationship for to heal yourself, find your own solutions and determine what to change. You know yourself best and you know intrinsically what you need to do. You just might need some help accessing that part of you.
It is really important that you find the right person to work with when working therapeutically as you need to feel safe to be able to be open and honest about what is going on for you. I may or may not be the right person. Explore the site and if it resonates with you then that's a good sign. If not, check out the Links page for sign posts to other people, resources and organisations that may be right for you.

> because of security ONLY text messages are permitted, and ONLY included in > the body of the message... I suspect you have a conflict with the other company's lawyers. I happened to see some advice from one of the UK accountancy professional bodies which said: - you should always have one of these horrible confidentiality/disclaimer notices on email; - there is an arguable case that such a notice is only legally effective if the recipient is forced to see it before seeing the content, and that it might, therefore, be advisable to make the real content an attachment. I would speculate that the email in question was using both rules. As far as I am concerned, such notices are often devalued by being used in contexts like this list, and devalue email by destroying its spontaneity, with the result that people move to "instant messaging" to get back the original email concept. (On the other hand, your failure to include a disclaimer, and use of the company name as your user name in the email, has misled me, in the past, to think that your postings are on behalf of Access Systems. In my view using your personal name in the From line should break the link, but company lawyers tend to want more. You may well be caught up in your own company bureaucracy. In fact, you do have a short version of the common legal notice, although, strangely, it is only the confidentiality part, when the "does not represent the company view" part appeared first. I no longer post from the office, partly because of such a notice.)Received on Tuesday, 18 November 2003 17:47:04 UTC

Tide Boards Replaced at Coinjock Bridge, AICW Statute Mile 50
Capt. Kremski gives us an update on the replacement of tide boards at Coinjock Bridge [Joseph Palmer Bridge], with a fixed vertical clearance of 65ft, spans the canal-like section of the Waterway at Statute Mile 50, between Coinjock Bay and North River. Note that SSECN reported the replacement of the tide boards at the Washington Baum Bridge in September of 2012.
We are happy to report that as of October, 2012 the tidal gauges have been re-installed at the Washington Baum Bridge (Hwy 64) just south of Manteo NC and also at the Joseph Palmer Bridge (Hwy 158) just south of Coinjock Marina. These are no longer hazard areas. Thanks.
John & Sharon
S/V Sunbow
Capt. Kremski's original report:
The tide boards are missing '" makes it very exciting to those of us with tall masts! Click Click Click as we went under '" call the Marina to water level information prior to attempting this one!
John Kremski
Capt. Kremski contacted the NCDOT regarding the missing tide boards:
Date/Time: 8/26/2012 11:21:13 AM
To the North Carolina Dept. of Transportation
The tide boards are missing from both the Washington Baum Bridge (highway 64) at Manteo and also the Joseph Palmer Bridge Highway (highway 158) at Coinjock. I have a tall mast and this route is the only way I can travel in NC; but it is not safe due to having no way judge if water levels are abnormally high or not.
Can you let me know if this will be fixed soon? I would like to return to NC again, but am not willing to risk my boat (or at least my mast!)
John Kremski
And the response from NCDOT:
Date/Time: 8/27/2012 3:16:59 PM
Mr. Kremski,
Thank you for bringing this to our attention, hopefully we can get some new signs fabricated and have them installed within the next month or so.
Thanks again.

Top Trends to Buy For (Or Not to Purge from Your Closet):
Metallics will continue to shine this season, making your glitzy holiday-wear/NYE purchases totally worth recycling! The brighter and more colourful, the better. If it looks like a rainbow has had its way with your outfit, +1 to you my friend. A lot of people are opting for classy, coloured couture items, but those of us on the streets know how to work some 90's holographic prints right in there. To this day I regret not purchasing a mini holographic backpack for $5 from a yard sale (instead I spent it on an Eminem CD and a Bart Simpson snow-globe pencil). Personally, I love any excuse to stand-out (fashionably), so this trend is right up my alley.
A winter revolutionist and quintessential spring favourite, pastels are continuing their reign over our wardrobes. The key here is to partake in a rendition of Carl Jung's "Law of Opposites". Pair your subtle pastels with bolder, contrasting shades for maximum impact. To make it easier, keep it monochrome, just in varying shades/intensities. If you're feeling adventurous, try pairing a fun fuchsia piece with a subdued baby blue, or sweet mint green with a vibrant tangerine!
Don't crop crop tops out of your closet just yet; with a steady stream of high-waisted bottoms, ready and willing, crop tops are here to stay another season. When I'm feeling brave, the midriff baring is a go. If you're a little shy or tummy conscious, just pair it with a high-waisted pencil or full skirt to close the gap. Keep your bottoms to balance everything out. High-waisted jeans, a crop top, and a moto jacket or blazer always make for a great outfit, and some high-waisted jeans can work shapewear-esque miracles. The other day I had fun pairing my cropped, striped oversized tee with a flowing double slit maxi-skirt in a similar shade. Just keep your proportions in check and you're golden!
Another spring favourite, florals, are back once again. No surprise there, though. The best way to add some modern flair to this trend is by scoping out pieces that feature texture and embellishments within the pattern. Like flowers covered in sequins or beads for that extra pop.
Sportier looks are back on the runway, and with neoprene dresses well behind us, designers seems to be adding comfy-cozy sporty elements into their collections. Just picture shiny fabrics juxtaposed with fellow kooky colours reminiscent of a 90's workout video, but on a more luxurious scale. The trick here is to not put on too many sporty pieces, as you run the risk of becoming an overdressed athlete. Aim for more of a "girl who knows how to balance comfort and class" kind of look - "luxe" jogging pants with a more modest, but still structured, top would do the trick.
Dare to bare in this showstopping trend. Now don't think you need to go full-frontal here, a little flash of something underneath here or there (ankles count!) behind a mesh panel can turn up the heat on any outfit. Want to make it even more conservative? Try layering an opaque tank top under a sheer chiffon dress shirt (under a blazer) for a more family appropriate look!
Full Skirts
You don't need to go as far back as the 50's to see that tea skirts are back in full swing. These comfortable, flowy, "I must twirl around endlessly" skirts have been popping up all over the runways - and for good reason! They're a great alternative to the double slit maxis we've been pretty fond of. So get your tea party on, and try to keep things sweet and playful for the ulti-MiuMiu outfit!
White Oxford-Inspired Shirts
Ok so it's not like basic, crisp white shirts haven't been considered one of the foundation pieces of any woman's closet. But these specific reincarnations are basically taking it to the next level. Cropped, unstructured, embellished, ruffles galore, you name it, they did it this year. Although not the most practical basic, these new oxford-inspired tops could really bump up your boring, go-to work outfit into something a little more trendy for "casual Fridays". It's still following the dress code if it fulfills the requirements if it's described as "white, collared, and starch-straight", right?
I think this trend really speaks for itself. Well-structured sleeves and torsos to give the appearance that the wearer is secretly a box in disguise is pretty much the look you're going for. It may be a little risky for those not confident enough with their already broad shoulders, or rectangular torso. As J.R.R. Tolkien once wrote "A box without hinges, key, or lid, yet golden treasure inside is hid." Release the booty.
Ok so schoolgirl skirts is a step in the right direction, tennis dresses even more so. What we're really coveting here are some skinny pleats, the barely there pleats that make you say "those aren't pleats? No, little elves broke into my closet last night and tried to expertly organize it by efficiently folding and my clothes to fit into the smallest space possible, but I guess it just didn't work out. Micro pleats is the name, and monochromatic/basic tops is the game. Have fun, but don't get lost in the folds.
Pop-Art Inspired
This trend is all about looking like a walking museum. The bolder and more indecipherable the image, the better. Prada, Warhol, and Pollock can provide all of the inspiration you need. Be careful with investing in this trend - too bold or too kooky could be a problem for those of you who don't want the eye-spotlight. Dress at your own risk.
Big Words (And I don't mean words like: circumlocution)
The more obnoxious the name and logo, the better. Be it a brand, emotion, or literally just the most random word possible, wear it loud and proud. If you look like a walking advertisement, you're doing it right.
Wide-Leg Pants
This trend has three extremes. There's the boot-cut-ish trouser that you wear to hide the fact that you're wearing heels from three season ago, the palazzo pant extreme because you want to indulge in your faux-euro roots, and the gaucho extreme that is literally so extreme that it was named after one of the most uncomfortably enunciated words I've ever had the displeasure of saying. I'm loving the palazzo pant trend simply because self-conscious women can a pretty great way to get away with not shaving on a hot summer's day.
I'm not really sure if fringe is ever really going to be out-of-style, per se. I think Free People, Coachella, as well as the state of California, will keep it rolling strong for years to come. Still, if western-wear isn't your thing, look for pieces that embellish with a touch of skinny, fluffy, silky fringe, instead of the thicker, wider, stiffer strands commonly created with suede or leather pieces. You could also consider delicate, fringed jewelry, which isn't too hard to come by. Or you could always just accessorise with a not-so-delicate leather whip, your choice.
Here's my newest addition, to make up for my shoe closet's lack of colourful, metallic options:

Secret Pal is a program that takes your typed text and encrypts it using an encryption key of your choice which you can pass onto your friends. You friends can then in turn use that encryption key to decode your messages and continue communication with you encrypted.
Q: I emailed a message to my friend and when they decoded the message some of it did not read correctly.
A: When deciding on what encryption key your going to start using, it is advised that you make a test email and send it to yourself to see if the encryption returns unaffected by the system you posted the message through. If your test email looks fine decoded, then the encryption key is compatible with that service your communicating with and all future emails using this key will be unaffected. If the test email does not look ok, then simply pick another encryption key and try again. This also applies to online forums, Face Book, Bebo or any online system that are not in direct control of Secret Pal.
Q: I picked a new encryption key and typed a message, but when I press the button to encrypt the text I got an error message.
A: Simply press OK and pick another encryption key as the number you are using is producing letters that are known to not transfer across standard text based systems online.
Q: The email button in Secret Pal does not work.
A: To send and email you need to have an email account on your PC. Secret Pal automatically configures itself to send email though the default account and application on your PC, so if you cannot send email, then you don't have an email account on your PC.
Q: I don't have an email account on my PC, I use Google Mail or one of the other popular online email systems. What can I do.
A: You have two options here, you can simply copy and paste the encrypted text into your online email and send it that way, or you can turn on the POP3 settings in your online email account. With Google Mail for example you can go to your accounts settings, click on the option to turn on POP3 and then follow the instructions there for setting up your email account to work with the default email application installed on your PC. You don't have to change how you check your email, but if you add the pop3 settings from Google Mail to your default email application on your PC, Secret Pal will automatically start sending email directly though your online Google Mail account.

Surely you don't think you are meant for suffering in whatever form suffering may appear to you at one time or another. When you feel in the doldrums, don't add insult to injury. Now it's about time to get your head on straight once and for all. Detach from the concept of having to hold on to all you hold onto. The Truth is you have to let go.
I know very well you would not destine the whole population to unmitigated suffering. Even you know enough to know that happiness also exists and is happily bestowed.
Sure, that suffering seems to exist is undisputed. The idea that unhappiness is all you have the right to claim is pure slipping the wool over your own eyes. You are made for Happiness. Never would I claim Happiness for Me and for Myself alone and leave you high and dry.
If We are One, and I say We ARE One, then Happiness is to be shared right and left.
If anyone declares that suffering is your due, it is likely you, Beloveds. Well, of course, someone may have taught suffering to you first hand. Certainly, now it is you who sets up the equipment for suffering. You even see it coming. You look out for it.
No longer keep looking for suffering. Keep your eyes open for all the Goodness in the world, for Goodness and Happiness are My Will for you day by day, instant by instant. Of course, Goodness and Happiness are My Will for you.
You tend to have a different expectation. Don't ever say that suffering is My expectation for you. Never. My Vision goes far beyond suffering.
Because you interpret loss as suffering, you suffer. If you could know non-attachment rather than loss, what would you suffer? You set up all these Earth rules and regulations. You believe in them. Don't believe in your own propaganda.
You believe that Love is lost and found, found and lost, and, so, you go around in circles. To go around the Merry-Go-Round is fun, but that's as far as going around in circles goes.
Children look forward with joy to every day. This is how it is supposed to be. If you consider this to be True, move forward without further ado. Anticipate Joy every day. Draw Joy to you with My blessings.
Not all the weeping in the world has a clue to how Life is supposed to be. Crying isn't meant to be the bulk of your Life, yet you persist in crying. In fact, everyone knows the meaning of having a Good Cry.
In fact, you can't have a Singular Joy. Joy is a non-count noun. Joy to the World. Not this kind of Joy and that Kind of Joy. Joy is Joy. For the Life of Me, Joy isn't ego-prompting. Joy isn't broken into pieces this way and that way.
Note I said that Love isn't ego-prompting. The word Love has four letters, yet notice how the word Love has an extended name. In fact, Love is a word without ending. Lovvvvvvvvvvvv. However, you may see Love as a temporary word when Love requires no words at all.
Love doesn't have to have sound go along with it. Of course, Love is fortified with music, much like the rustle of leaves in a tree. The Truth is that Love is never absent. Love absent isn't a feat capable of being enacted, not in a million years.
You, however, invent the absence of Love every day. You see Love absent backwards and forwards. You may be well-able to see darkness where there is light. In fact, you are good at this. Of course, you have it all backwards.

The best part about this project is that it's one of those things where if you're headed to a party, odds are you aren't going empty handed. And cheesecakes are pretty much a party go to. Everybody loves cheesecake. It's a universal crowd pleaser. So if you're already baking, and then you remember Canada Day is around the corner, you can just grab some food colouring and make this flag cheesecake. It's perfect. It's fast. It's easy. You have everything you need at home.
Aren't those the best kinds of party treats?
So how to make a flag cheesecake.
First, separate about 2/3 of a cup of your cheesecake filling, pouring the rest into the cake pan. Pour the extra batter into a bowl and use red food colouring or dye and mix the filling. Spoon into an icing bag or Ziploc bag and cut a small hole to pipe out your flag design.
Draw your flag. I used a cookie cutter for the maple leaf, but next time I would free hand it, and make the points more spread out. The design is going to spread so make take that into account. Another option is doing the sides of the cake but not the maple leaf, and waiting until you take it out of the oven to pipe on the maple leaf. It's a thin layer of cheesecake, so it will chill fine without baking.
Use a toothpick to clean up the filling. Now it's time to bake! So I have a super specific way of baking cheesecakes, and I don't know where I learned it but it totally works perfectly so don't judge.
Put a baking rack on a roasting pan and place your cake pan on top. Fill the roasting pan with boiling water, about halfway up the cake pan (aim for the dashed line in the photo). Pop it in the oven for about 45-50minutes. I baked around 325 because I'm neurotic. You do what you wanna do 🙂 I will warn you the roasting pan will weigh like five million pounds. Justin usually handles the oven transferring, and we fill it up with water while IN the oven. Which is smarter. Because it will weigh about ten million pounds when it's full. Just a pro tip.
And that's it! It's literally the easiest Canada Day themed cake you can make, and you don't even need icing. That's like the cherry on top 🙂
OH, and check out how gorgeous and smooth the water trick makes your cake.
That's right. You'll knock 'em dead.

Tautomers are constitutional isomers of organic compounds that readily interconvert.[1][2][3] This reaction commonly results in the relocation of a proton. Although it is a complicated concept, tautomerism is relevant to the behavior of amino acids and nucleic acids, two of the fundamental building blocks of life.
The concept of tautomerizations is called tautomerism. The chemical reaction interconverting the two is called tautomerization.
Tautomerization is pervasive in organic chemistry. It is typically associated with polar molecules and ions containing functional groups that are at least weakly acidic. Most commonly tautomers exist in pairs, which means that the proton is located at one of two positions. Common tautomeric pairs include:[4]
- amino acid-ammonium carboxylate, which applies to the building blocks of the proteins.
- ketone - enol, e.g., for acetone (see: keto–enol tautomerism);
- enamine - imine;
- lactam - lactim, an amide-imidic acid tautomerism in the nucleobases guanine, thymine, and cytosine;
- enamine - enamine, e.g., during pyridoxalphosphate-catalyzed enzymatic reactions; and
Some more specialized examples are known including nitroso - oxime, ketene - ynol, amide - imidic acid (e.g., the latter is encountered during nitrile hydrolysis reactions);
Prototropy is the most common form of tautomerism and refers to the relocation of a proton.[5] Prototropic tautomerism may be considered as a subset of acid-base behavior. Prototropic tautomers are sets of isomeric protonation states with the same empirical formula and total charge. Tautomerizations are catalyzed by:
- bases, involving a series of steps: deprotonation, formation of a delocalized anion (e.g., an enolate), and protonation at a different position of the anion; and
- acids, involving a series of steps: protonation, formation of a delocalized cation, and deprotonation at a different position adjacent to the cation).
Two specific further subcategories of tautomerizations:
- Annular tautomerism is a type of prototropic tautomerism wherein a proton can occupy two or more positions of a heterocyclic system, for example, 1H- and 3H-imidazole; 1H-, 2H- and 4H- 1,2,4-triazole; 1H- and 2H- isoindole.[6]
- Ring–chain tautomers occur when the movement of the proton is accompanied by a change from an open structure to a ring, such as the open chain and pyran forms of glucose and furan form of fructose.[4]
Valence tautomerism
Valence tautomerism is a type of tautomerism in which single and/or double bonds are rapidly formed and ruptured, without migration of atoms or groups.[7] It is distinct from prototropic tautomerism, and involves processes with rapid reorganisation of bonding electrons. An example of this type of tautomerism can be found in bullvalene. Another example is open and closed forms of certain heterocycles, such as azide - tetrazole or mesoionic münchnone-acylamino ketene. Valence tautomerism requires a change in molecular geometry and should not be confused with canonical resonance structures or mesomers.

A triple celebration for centenarians
There was a triple celebration last week as three residents of John Paul Village at Heathcote marked their 100th birthdays.
John (Jack) Potts, Kenneth (Ken) Harris and Jean Roberts all celebrate their 100th birthdays between the end of March and the end of July.
Both Jack and Ken are returned servicemen who saw active service during WWII, while Jean's husband, who was Welsh by birth, served in the Australian army during the war.
Jack Potts was born March 28, 1918 in Marrickville, the fifth of six boys.
The family moved to Carlton and Jack when to Canterbury Boys High School.
He joined the NSW Public Service in 1934 and retired in 1978 as a legal advisor in the Premier's Department.
He served in WWII in the AIF and anti-aircraft and 'Z' Special Forces.
Jack has lived with wife Mary, 96, at John Paul Village since 1995.
He has five children, nine grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.
Ken Harris was born in Marrickville, coincidentally a couple of streets away from Jack, on May 4, 1918.
He was the second of three boys. Ken was married to Phyllis for 73 years. He has two children, four grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren.
Ken is an ex-serviceman who saw service in the south-west Pacific.
He was a past president of the Master Plumbers Association.
He has lived at John Paul Village for 28 years.
Ken was married for 73 years and has been a widower for a few years.
Jean was born on July 29, 1918 in Sydney and lived in Maroubra from 1920.
She married a Welshman who was serving in the Australian army in 1942 and had two daughters, Margaret and Patricia.
She has four grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren.
Jean was widowed in 1973 and came to live in John Paul Village in 2000.
