Manchester United coach Jose Mourinho has described his team's performance in their 2-0 Premier League win against Leicester City at Old Trafford as 'solid'.
After a goalless first half, United's persistence eventually paid off thanks to goals from substitutes Marcus Rashford and Maroune Fellaini in the 70th and 82nd minutes respectively.
United should have taken the lead in the 53rd minute but Romelu Lukaku's penalty was saved by Kasper Schmeichel.
The win was United's third on the bounce which saw them go top on nine points of the league table.
"I think we played very well," Mourinho said in his post-match press conference.
"The result was open at 0-0. The blue wall was very well organised and I always give credit for that. They defended very well.
"After the goal I have to say we were very good. If I have to choose a word to describe my team, I would have to say solid."
Mourinho also reserved special praises for substitutes Rashford, Fellaini and Jesse Lingard whose introduction made the difference for United.
"The players are good and motivated. They are on the bench waiting for a chance."
Other EPL Results:
AFC Bournemouth 1 - 2 Manchester City
Crystal Palace 0 - 2 Swansea City
Huddersfield Town 0 - 0 Southampton
Newcastle United 3 - 0 West Ham United
Watford 0 - 0 Brighton & Hove Albion

A bushy plant with feather- or fern-like leaves, chickpeas are well suited to the hot, dry summers of Montana. As long as conditions are good, chickpeas produce a profusion of small flowers, each flower eventually develops into a pod containing 2-3 individual seeds. The pods are light in color and easily noticeable from a distance. Two varieties of chickpeas grow in Montana: Desi, which have a purple flower, and produce a small, dark seed, and Kabuli, which have a white flower and produce a large, pale seed, often called garbanzo beans. Chickpeas require deep soil, but are more drought- and heat-tolerant than other legumes. Chickpeas usually take 100-130 days to mature, and are harvested when the pods obtain a uniform straw color.
As one of the oldest domesticated crops, chickpeas are eaten in a variety of ways across the globe. Extremely healthy and highly versatile, chickpeas can be boiled, roasted, stewed, fried, ground into flour, mashed into hummus, and, occasionally, brewed as a substitute for coffee. They can also be used as livestock feed.

I'm sad my vacation is coming to an end. Tomorrow I'm back to work! I thought I'd share some recent fabric purchases that I've made during August. This is a combination of shopping at local quilt shops and a fat quarter shop 12 lb fabric bundle, as well as a few fabric panel bundles.
On Friday I stopped by Tampa Bay Comic Con by myself since Ringo was at home awaiting computer parts for our new computers. I met author Hugh Howey and got my books signed in person. Such a nice guy! I didn't really know what to say so I just kind of thanked him for writing such great stuff. He was surprised at my galley bound copy of Wool and asked me where I got it from.
I also got to meet a great corgi artist Christian Slade that lives sort of close to Tampa. I've been following his work for quite a while and have one of his signed books. I ended up purchasing one of his corgi/fairy prints while I was there and chatting with him a bit.
My quilting studio is temporarily doubling as a PC building space while Ringo puts together our new computers. Mine is all done and it's been a bit of an adjustment organizing my old data and working with the new system. So far I love it. Much, much faster. Processing photos in Lightroom is super quick now. Looking forward to editing the first podcast episode on the new system.
I cleaned my machine from the recent Tinkertote project and started a new one that's 25% smaller and I'm using all Riley Blake Geekly Chic fabrics this time.
Taking my time with this one. Trying to clean up my sewing room in the meantime. It got to be a bit of a mess during the week.

A deal between Apple and Microsoft may mean iPhone owners would automatically get Microsoft's Bing as the main search engine. That means that Google being now the default search engine on the iPhone will be replaced by Bing. Microsoft may also be lobbying to make Bing an alternative on Apple's Safari browser for Mac users. Currently, Mac users can choose either Google or Yahoo search through the Safari browser.
Being the default search engine on the iPhone carries financial benefits for Google, which collects revenue from ads placed alongside its search results and shares a portion of that with Apple. Most mobile advertising now is viewed on Apple's iPhone and iPod touch, according to mobile advertising company AdMob. To clinch the deal, Microsoft may be willing to share a higher portion of its revenue or pay a larger flat annual fee than Google does.
Clinching the coveted default spot on the iPhone would also help Bing gain market share in the quickly growing area of mobile search. Of people who use mobile search, 86% used Google in November, according to the Nielsen Co. Only 11% used Bing.
So, even bigger attack on Google would be Apple building its own search engine.

Finally, some Ellroy related news! For months and months I've been eagerly awaiting any announcements regarding Ellroy's long awaited, and yet unnamed, Perfidia sequel. But alas! Still no news….. However, for those craving all things Ellroy, there is some news. It was announced last month that American television network CBS, in conjunction with Lionsgate and New Regency, are set to develop Ellroy's L.A. Confidential into a new series for television!
As happy as I am to hear news of any adaptation of Ellroy's work, I have to admit I was a bit surprised by this one. Probably like many people, it is hard not to feel that the essence of Confidential was somewhat definitively captured by Curtis Hanson and Brian Helgelend in their 1997 adaptation of the book. Starring the likes of Kevin Spacey, Russell Crowe, Guy Pearce and Kim Basinger, Hanson's film is a stylish, brutal and brilliantly executed, if not severely condensed, version of Ellroy's novel. As such it is very difficult to see anybody improving on this film. It also seems odd to return to an already adapted text when there are so many other Ellroy novels that have yet to be seen on television or the big screen. I personally would love to see a serialization of a text like The Big Nowhere or even American Tabloid.
Of course, it is ludicrous to judge this yet unreleased series at this stage, or to compare it to Hanson's film. Details on the show are sparse at this moment in time, but it seems like it will follow a different narrative thread to the novel's previous intonation. Press releases have stated that the show will centre on the exploits of "three homicide detectives, a female reporter, and a Hollywood actress as they intersect while the detectives pursue a sadistic serial killer through the seedy underbelly of 1950's Los Angeles".
For fans of the novel, this precis is intriguing. Although the mention of 'three homicide detectives' suggests that the series will stick with the Exley/Vincennes/Bud White triad, the mention of a female reporter seems to suggest that the series might also deviate from the source material to some extent. The reference to a serial killer, whilst vague, is also fascinating. In regards to the original novel, this could either refer to Bud White's investigation into a string of prostitute killings, or Raymond Dieterling's crazed and sadistic son Douglas. It would certainly be exciting too see the whole 'dream-a-dreamland' sub plot of Ellroy's novel played out in this series.
The good news is that there are certainly huge sections of Ellroy's text still to be creatively mined, so its certainly possible to produce a series that is both true to the original novel yet different enough from Hanson's film that it doesn't feel like a straight regurgitation. Also, I have always felt that Ellroy's novels would be better suited to serialization in a series format. There is just too much going on for them to work as 120 minute screenplays, which is why Hanson's film was a such a remarkable triumph. Subsequent adaptations such as Brian De Palma's disastrous The Black Dahlia (2006) are certainly testament to the difficulties of adapting an Ellroy novel….
Of course, having a good script will be important, but I also think that casting will be vital to the adaptation's success. Will they choose to go for recognizable actors? Or will they cast relative unknowns? This will be a challenge, because these characters have certainly been immortalized by the excellent performances of the lead actors in Hanson's adaptation.
Despite all the potential pitfalls of such an ambitious venture, on the whole I'm optimistic about the series. Who knows, if the show is a success, it might even lead straight into adaptations of the other texts in the L.A. Quartet. For now though, we'll just have to wait and see!
Who would be your dream L.A. Confidential cast, or indeed, dream cast for any of Ellroy's novels? Comments below!

Baking, Crafting, Living
I After a long day at work, I like to come home and enjoy the comforts of my bedroom floor, my laptop, and Netflix. I'm trying to make it a goal this summer to finish How I Met Your Mother (I just finished season one), but then I came across the show Merlin, which is now taking up my time on Netflix (watching the last episode of season one as I type). Anyway, I highly recommend both shows.
I did not run today because I ran yesterday and the day before I did a whole bunch of lunges and squats in my room so every time I move, my quads feel as if they are going to collapse. I am going to volunteer at the soccer camp again tomorrow morning. After that I'm taking some ibuprofen and running til my legs give out.
I also recently found some pretty journals that I had laying around my room. I always buy them with the intention of writing in them, but then I feel that my daily life isn't interesting enough to actually write about (and look at what I'm doing now, writing a blog…). But I took one and began writing questions to God in it. I only have 5 written down so far, but for years I have thought of really good ones and told myself, "Man, I really need to write these down." They are not all deep or meaningful. Some are just silly questions that I'd like to know the answer to when I die. Like, have I really eaten bugs in my sleep, and if so how many? or How much of the bible is true? and was Mary a virgin her whole life, or just before Jesus was born? It is kind of silly. I guess when I die and if I make it to heaven I won't really care about the answers to any of these questions or any more that I think up, though it will be interesting to look back at the question I have if I keep up this little journaling project.
If you could ask God anything, silly or not, what would you ask?

During the first five years after start-up, entrepreneurs in Germany can receive public funding for external business coaching, within the program "Gründercoaching Deutschland". The program was introduced in October 1, 2007 and one year later extended by a variant especially designed for start-ups out of unemployment "Gründercoaching Deutschland - Gründungen aus Arbeitslosigkeit". For the latter program the coverage rate of the coaching costs is higher and the period of eligibility is restricted to one year after start-up. Both programs aim to increase the sustainability of business start-ups and have become an important part of entrepreneurial support programs in Germany. The project team conducts this research project to evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of both instruments. Based on the evaluation results, the project team will also give policy advice with respect to the prospective organization of the programs' set up.

The tradition of having first-year medical residents work 24-hour shifts has long raised concerns that sleep deprivation has caused errors that harmed or killed patients. Acknowledging those possibilities, the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education has placed a restriction on teaching hospitals that limits first-year residents to working no longer than 16 consecutive hours. Second- and third-year residents are still permitted to work 24-hour shifts.
The decision to limit the time first-year residents can spend seeing and treating patients was made to improve patient safety, but some are concerned that the restriction might actually produce less-prepared doctors. "These first-year residents need training under their belt," Chairman of the Department of Surgery at EVMS and president of the American College of Surgeons Dr. L.D. Britt told the Virginian-Pilot. He doesn't want the restrictions to "dumb down their profession."
Doctors have much to learn, so it is important that they get enough practical experience. Still, hospitals all over the nation are abiding these new restrictions to keep their accreditation. The health care facilities are also complying with rules to provide more direct supervision to residents and to ensure trainee doctors have access to "call rooms" in hospitals where they can get some peace and quiet and even catch up on sleep. Instruction of residents now includes information about the effects of sleep deprivation, as well.
There was a case in 1989 in which an 18-year-old college freshman died whike under the care of overworked medical residents. Soon after, New York passed the Libby Zion Law, which restricts residents in the state to working no more than 80 hours a week.
As a Virginia (VA) personal injury lawyer, I see cases medical malpractice almost every day. I cover various forms of doctors mistakes, which include surgical errors, misdiagnoses and negligent care. Instances of malpractice due to lack of sleep should not occur.

NEM 18May2003 - Just tried tkterm for the first time. When I run vi (which is aliased to Vim), I get a message about "unknown terminal: defaulting to ANSI" and then vi just hangs. Any ideas how to fix this?escargo - What environment are you running in? If you are running in a UNIX-like environment, what is the value of your TERM environment variable?Does Tkterm support "answer back" strings? In the "old days" systems connected to terminals would determine the terminal type based on the results of a query string sent to the terminal. I don't know if that is still true or not, but Tkterm behavior in that regard would be worth knowing.[Martinwguy]: No.NEM - Environment:
$ uname -a Linux latimer 2.4.19-4GB #1 Mon Oct 14 22:11:39 UTC 2002 i686 unknown $ echo $TERM xtermNo idea what tkterm supports in terms of functionality, or how it works at all. Just thought it would be neat to have Vim running in a Tk window ;)NEM - Update. My problem has been fixed now. Search google groups archive of c.l.t. for a post by Don Libes (in a thread called "looking for tkterm + scrollbars (pterm, maybe?)" which contains updated code. The problem was with something not liking the terminal name "tt", as it is too short. Don changed it to "tkterm" and now it works ok.

Last week, CJ was very generous to provide me with an advance copy of his recently published manifesto for minimal photography entitled A Lesser Photographer: 10 Principles for Rediscovering What Matters.
As mentioned before, back in 2010, CJ Chilvers began a project where he completely minimized his photo gear to the bare essentials. The purpose was to discover if what he produced would be as meaningful as if he owned the latest of anything. My personal view on gear is that while it is important, it's highly overvalued. Many newbies and I included myself in this group, viewed the purchase of expensive equipment as an obstacle that one needed to prevail over before one could think of breaking into this elitist world we perceive as real photography.
I'll agree with you in that there may be some equipment you may need as a photographer but they are far less than marketing people want you to believe. It's taken me a while to realize it but after reading CJ's manifesto, I learned that simplicity does not mean there's no purpose in what you do with your camera, it just means the purpose is very simple: It's not what you photographed with that matters, it's what you chose to photograph that's going to ultimately convince people to wanna to see your work.
Content-wise, if you're searching for an eBook that's going to supply you with technical jargon on photography and camera equipment advice, this is not the eBook that's going to do it for you which is a noteworthy trait because there's a surplus of that everywhere on the web already. Writer's block is a real beast and as far as the productive process of creating a photograph is involved, the most terrifying thing in the world for a photographer is not knowing what to photograph and so what's encouraging about this manifesto is that it immediately zaps you with a totally revamped outlook on how to better approach this obsession you and I have with photography.
Back in college, I was only able to take 1 course in photography and I'm embarrassed to say that I hardly recall much of anything, perhaps because I wasn't too inspired to retain much of what had been taught. Eventually I taught myself all the technical stuff of operating a camera but during those long hours we spent in the classroom, I would have much preferred to be supplied with a copy of CJ's A Lesser Photographer Manifesto to get my mind working before my camera.
I highly recommend reading the manifesto. I don't want to spoil all the great words of wisdom from the eBook but I'll leave you with 2 of my many favorite:
- No matter what area of photography offers the promise of more money or recognition; you will never be as prolific or creative in that area as in the area that naturally interests you.
- Concentrate on making your images remarkable, instead of marketable. If you photograph what you love to photograph, without regard for money, you'll create better images, which could lead to the possibility of money. Just don't count on the money.

YEREVAN. – It is a "manageable chaos," to put it mildly, but a true "difficulty," to put it harshly, in the airline tickets' market of Armenia, according to Hraparak (Square) newspaper.
"The [prices of these] tickets (…) are rising like a 'miracle baby,' by the second.
"The [respective] lines of reasoning are diverse-surprising, but the primary [is] 'it's the last two tickets,' when very often it turns out that the planes fly half empty.
"It is an even more inconsolable situation in the processes of returning the tickets. Absolutely no [respective] mechanism works [in Armenia]; no money is refunded.
"Mainly Russian airlines (…) work in such a way," wrote Hraparak.

A combination of more inventory, a stable economy and steady interest rates helped the city to finish the year with 275 residential sales, which ties it with 2015 for the most sales, behind 2007, 2012, 2013 and 2014.
Century 21 Accord Realty agent Kelsey Adam, of the Kelsey Adam Real Estate Team, was not surprised to hear of those numbers.
"Things were very busy last year, starting with a near-record first quarter and staying steady from there," he said. "The thing I love about the real estate business is that it is always active, always changing and always exciting."
Inventory levels increased slightly over the past year, with 514 residential properties being listed in Swift Current, compared to 512 last year, 456 in 2015 and 395 in 2014.
"You can see with the increasing availability of housing that there is ample opportunity to be a home owner in the city, plus even more so in the surrounding communities," Adam stated.
He added that in several price ranges, it could be considered a buyer's market.
"With more homes available for sale, it means that sellers may need to be very sharp on how they price their home."
Despite that, Adam pointed out that both the average and the median sale prices were basically unchanged. The median sale price for 2017 was $255,000, meaning there were as many houses selling above that price as below it. That was unchanged from last year and down from 2015's $262,000.
"I prefer the median number to the average," said Adam, "as it evens out the skewing of a few higher or a few lower property sales."
The average residential sale price in 2017 was $269,000, which was a 1% decrease over the $274,000 figure of 2016 but up from 2015's $266,000. Meanwhile, the average sale price is 94% of the asking price, which has been consistent over the past few years. However, partially because of the higher number of homes for sale, the average days it took for a property to sell was almost 82 days, which is 22% more than the 66.5 days of 2016, which itself was a 22% increase from the 54 days that the average home was on the market in 2015.
"People have had to have a bit more patience selling a home in 2017," according to Adam, "however the market continues to offer a balance of availability, affordability and opportunity in Swift Current more than it does in many other markets across the province and the country."

THIS is where last night's winning EuroMillions ticket was sold7th Oct 17 | News
One lucky Irish person scooped a whopping €500,000 in last night's EuroMillions draw
One lucky Irish person is a whole lot richer today after winning a whopping €500,000 in last night's Euromillions Lotto Plus draw.
And the winning ticket was sold in Barrys Mace in Blackwater, Ardnacrusha in Co.Clare.
Speaking to the Irish Mirror, the owner of the store Lance O'Neill said: "It's a small village and it would be lovely if it was somebody local who has won. But it could also have been anybody driving through going to East Clare. I look forward to celebrating with staff and locals when I get home next week."
Last night's draw had a bumper jackpot of €190 million and the overall winning ticket was sold in Spain.

Review by Batcheeba.
What do you get if you hot wire early Einstürzende, say Strategien Gegen Architektur, to a pissed of homicidal robot, say Mark 13 from Hardware? Throw in some old school black metalish inspired vocals too and you will end up with Sektor 304.
It's that good. I don't really know where to begin with this review, as I want to say it all at once. This is beyond amazing. This release needs to be in your collection. And it's certainly off the normal Malignant path.
Sektor 304 is João Filipe Pais and André Coelho. And together these two create a whole new industrial experimental metal heaven. I'm so blown away it's ridiculous. They list power tools and metal junk to the list of instruments, and hell yes I'm so thrilled to hear someone actually banging away at real metal for once, instead of using fucking soft synth for everything. This my, dear readers, is proper hard core. What I really love is that they manage to combine the old school industrial rawness with more contemporary electronic sounds. And it works like you would not believe. On top of that you have the vocals. At times brutal screaming, at times eerie and threatening and subtle. All this is accompanied by rhythmic drums and a haunting drone inspired soundscape, yet surprisingly melodic at times. Think Tetsuo at it's most desperate and brutal, think Ichi the killer at it's most fucked up moments. There you have it: Sektor 304.
I have to mention the mastering done by the legendary J. Stillings (Steel Hook Studios/ Steel Hook Prosthesis). This smells of his to the point, no bullshit style. I'm a huge fan of his work, and this is just yet another star for him. Excellent choice to have Stillings master this release. Perfect fit.
I can only imagine what these guys would sound like live. My experience is that proper industrial like this always kills any live gig. If they bring even a fraction of the energy from this release to stage, it has to be pretty fucking mind blowing to watch. I'm one of those people who find hard core industrial noise like this to be meditative. If it's quality noise, I feel relaxed. And I feel relaxed.
The track titles should also have some attention, as they really are so spot on for this release. With titles such as Body Hammer, Voodoo Machine, Death Mantra and Blood Rush, the primitive and brutal force almost tears it's way into your head. The vibe is of post apocalyptic warriors. It is indeed very sexual. At least I am a little turned on.
The cover is also a real gem. From the moment you lay your eyes on it you know you are in for a brutal experience. Black, red and white 6 panel digipack, with a threatening minimalist design. Skulls, war paint, voodoo vibes and an overall primitive theme pulls this release together in a brilliant way.
There is really nothing left to say besides buy this CD. You need it. It's a brutal fist in your face, and you need it.

Taylor eLearning
Frequently Asked Questions Page
Frequently Asked Questions Page
What is eLearning?
Understanding eLearning is simple. eLearning is learning utilizing electronic technologies to access educational curriculum outside of a traditional classroom. Our students use ipads and laptops in school and at home to complete classroom work assignments.
What is the eLearning Flex Program?
Taylor Community Schools applied to the Indiana Department of Education for the IN DOE eLearning Flex Pilot Program. We were selected to use this program for the 2017-2018 school year. We have chosen 4 school days to use as eLearning days. What does this mean for you as a parent or community patron? Your student can stay at home and participate in the pre planned eLearning curriculum provided from their teachers and be counted for a school day. The entire school staff will report to work for a structured day of professional development and training. If your student can not stay at home, we will still provide transportation, meal service and classroom instruction, but you will need to let us know. We have provided an online form (Taylor eLearning Attendance Form ) as well as paper forms for this purpose.
For more information on this program use this link: Taylor eLearning Flex Program
For more information on this program use this link: Taylor eLearning Flex Program
Do we come to school on the eLearning Flex Program Day?
Maybe? This will take some arrangement for parents to keep their child at home during a work day. If your student must attend school on the eLearning Flex Program day, that is fine. We will still provide transportation, meal services and classroom instruction for your students. But you will need to let us know before the eLearning Flex day. We will provide an online form (Taylor eLearning Attendance Form) as well as paper forms for your submittal. This way we know who needs provide transportation and instruction.
When are the eLearning Flex Program days at Taylor for the 2017-2018School Year
We have chosen the following school days as eLearning Days:
Friday, September 1, 2017
Friday, September 1, 2017
What is the eLearning Virtual Option for Inclement Weather as a make up day?
Taylor Schools applied to the IN DOE for a Virtual Option for Inclement Weather to make up attendance days lost to extreme weather. We were accepted and decided to use the day of inclement weather as the eLearning day. You will receive a skylert call anouncing the Taylor has closed and will be using that day as an eLearning day. This will eliminate the addition of days to the end of the school year calendar. If there are multiple inclement weather days in succession, only the first day will be an eLearning Day, the rest will be made up by calendar days or Saturday eLearning Make Up Days.
For more information about this program use this link: Taylor eLearning Virtual Option for Inclement Weather
For more information about this program use this link: Taylor eLearning Virtual Option for Inclement Weather
What is required of our students on the eLearning day?
Students will be required to complete virtual assignments in the turn in window, which their teacher will explain. Your student should have clear understanding on what is expected of them. The assignment should be accomplished at home during the eLearning day as teachers will be available for six hours on the eLearning day. This work will not be accomplished during the normal school day. By completing these assignments, your student will be marked as attended during the eLearning Day and work scored towards semester grade.
How much school work will they be required to accomplish?
Students will be assigned virtual classroom work from each class or subject they have in a normal school day. Each lesson will be relevant to current instruction and should not take students much time to complete when on task. We do not want to overload our students with busy work. By using current instruction we can give them work to prepare for state assessments and meet educational standards that they missed on the inclement weather day.
What if I do not have Internet at home?
There are a couple of options that students can use. First, we will supply all students and parents with a list of Free Wifi throughout our Taylor Community. Most of these businesses are prepared for extra patronage by students who do not have Internet access at home. On inclement weather days, we do not encourage any students to leave their homes and travel. If the student can not complete the work due to Internet Access, they will be given time once school is back in session to complete eLEarning work.
How can we get help as a student or parent?
All students have their teacher contacts for the eLearning days. Teachers will give preferred contact information to your students. These could be email, texting, cell phone, school phone or in person, depending on teacher. Tech support and Admin Team contacts will be available at anytime with the iPad Help APP on students iPads and on the website. Your teacher is the first contact to be made for help.

I made it to spring break!
Finally a moment to relax and not be going at 100mph.
I haven't gone anywhere special this spring break. And honestly, I'm ok with that. The fact that I just get a break is what matters to me.
The agenda: sleep. tv. sleep. repeat.
But before break...life was nostalgic.
I helped out at the track meet. It brought back high school memories for me (I totally miss high school track!) and it was great to see some of my students run their events. I think they should host a teacher medley! I'd be running out there! :)
What is everyone else doing for their spring breaks?!

As we get ready to celebrate our nations independence we remember our veterans and active duty service members who continue to fight for this country. For one Wichita Falls man that is no longer a reality. An illness ended his career in the army but he later gained hope through the actions of convicted criminals.
David Misner is an army veteran. He was discharged three years ago while stationed as a biomedical engineer in Fort Lewis, Washington.
I start doing PT and I'd get about a half mile into my two mile run and my legs would be numb," he said. "About three years ago they finally diagnosed me with MS."
Multiple Sclerosis affects his brain and spinal cord causing him to lose muscle control. To get around David Misner uses a walking stick, a wheelchair and Sergeant.
Not only can the dog do small tasks, like pick up David's keys, but Sergeant gives David a sense of completion.
"Just the emotional part of me having him knowing the small things are not so big anymore."
Sergeant has really become part of the family fitting in with David's wife and three kids. Their four legged friend didn't just randomly walk into their lives. They were introduced in the most unlikeliest of places.
Four hours away from Wichita Falls is Gatesville, Texas home of several prisons. Two of the women's prisons serve as the training center for Patriot Paws.
"I'm here for murder," said inmate Christi Pericolosi. "I've been incarcerated for almost eight years."
"We have about 32 female offenders that are training our dogs," said Rhonda Lee with Patriot Paws.
A woman named Lori Stevens started Patriot Paws in 2006. Two years later she teamed up with the Texas Dept. of Criminal Justice and the Lane Murray Unit in Gatesville; all to help pair disabled veterans with a service dog.
"I've done a lot of wrong in my life, made a lot of mistakes but I saw this as an opportunity to give back," said Pericolosi.
"It's just an all around life changing experience for me and the veterans and my coworkers," said inmate Casey Callahan.
The dogs stay with the women for 24/7 and rotate between inmates every few months; still for many if not all attachment is hard to resist.
"It does bother you for a little bit," said Pericolosi. "I'm depressed for a couple of days but you get over it because you know it's for the better of the dog."
Both inmates met David when he came for his dog in March. It was a week long graduation ceremony that released the dogs from the inmates into the hands of veterans.
"We let 'em come out one at a time and they just kind of circle around cause usually the dog chooses the veteran," said Lee with Patriot Paws.
For the prisoners involved in Patriot Paws this is their chance to make right with what they once did wrong.
"It helps me be proud of myself again. It's given back some of the dignity I lost," said Callahan.
"It really is life changing for them and for us," said David Misner.
Christi Pericolosi will be on parole next month. Casey Callahan will be up for parole at the end of next year. If you would like to learn more about Patriot Paws or donate to the non-profit we have all that information for you right here.

Your host
Welcome to Only The Blue Side – The Blog
Dave Wateridge
b. 27.01.1964
This is Only The Blue Side, and is the blog of me, Dave Wateridge, which is constructed using WordPress and currently hosted by Fasthosts
The original title of "The Joy Circuit" came from my favourite Gary Numan song of the same name. It is generally recommended that websites have an easy recognisable title and it sounded better than "The Dave Wateridge Homepage" and the best I could think of at the time.
I attempted to re-brand the site as Only The Blue Side and that name will get you redirected. If you lived in Hampshire and followed football you would understand the name. Unfortunately due to the original server address being thejoycircuit and the cost and time involved in moving it over it will remain there.
Personal Life
No point in going into great details about me as most of my likes and dislikes are covered in the main site. In summary I was born in 1964 and grew up in Bedhampton which is the posh bit outside Portsmouth and should not be confused with Leigh Park where the burnt out cars are.
My ideal women would have had Rachael Leigh Cook's face, Katherine Heigl's body and the voice of Amy Acker. Or just let me have Victoria Justice!. I can always hope!.
My working career consisted of 4 years with the MOD at Portsmouth Dockyard from which Maggie Thatcher kindly made me redundant. I followed that with 1 week at a shit company in Waterlooville before I walked out and spent a year enjoying my redundancy. I spent the next 20 years at the now failed company that is Autoliv AGB. From 10 April 2006 I started work at H+S Aviation.
I have 3 children
My interests outside work include a long and ofter painful support of Portsmouth Football Club who are currently in a period of great decline
I also have a keen interest in electronic music and the collection of synthesizers. I would never describe myself as a musician as I can't play but love the technology.

I shouldn't get too wrapped up in online discussions, particularly in comment threads on blogs. But I often do, especially when the discussion is about actual ideas and not just a tired rehash of pop culture or ossified political positions.
Which is why I was especially disappointed this afternoon to see that an earlier comment I posted on an oft-visited blog had been unceremoniously removed after remaining online for several hours today.
Let me say first that I firmly believe in the "my house, my rules" philosophy of blog hosting. The blog owner has every right to edit or censor any of the content posted there.
However, on a personal level I have always admired this particular blogger for his relatively even handed and open minded approach to discussions. His comment threads are often interesting and informative, with a number of different points of view represented, quite often in opposition to his own original posts.
Which is why this particular act is so puzzling, and troubling. It was the third comment I had posted in the thread (the first two comments still remain as of this writing). It was on topic, polite, not obscene in any way -- it simply expressed a different opinion to that of the author of the post. The topic of the article apparently had the author fairly agitated, based on his responses to my first couple of comments. I can only assume that perhaps he was on a rather shorter fuse than usual today, and was in no mood to have his ideas challenged.
Again, his house, his rules, so I'm not arguing that he's under any obligation whatsoever to give access to anyone in particular. Nor is he obligated to use his own site's bandwidth to publish views that are contrary to his own.
But as a "consumer" of his site, this makes me wonder what other content he's censored in the past on other topics. It makes me wonder what future content he may censor on a whim. I had assumed from my perception that his forum is generally open, that there was a certain integrity to the conversation -- that polite and relevant comments would be welcomed without regard to the ideas one expressed. That appears not to be the case, which means that I must question the integrity of every conversation on the site.
And, perhaps naively, I am very disappointed to lose so much respect for someone whom I had never met, but had certainly admired.

I came across a new Righty blog for Oregon, "Oregon Fevah". From their mission statement:
Oregon's got a blue fevah. And the only prescription is a big red cowbell.
OK, at least these guys have a sense of humor. And they enjoy a little classic Walken. What I've read so far has been interesting, and while certainly biased, not too far out on the fringe. As they say in the "About the Fevah" page:
We bleed Republican red, but we're not ideologues. If you're looking for crazy, there's plenty of love out there for you elsewhere.
There oughtta be more blogs like this, across the whole political spectrum. They aren't kidding about the "plenty of love", far too many political blogs are all about the crazy. And so far, at least, the authors seem to have a firm grasp of the English language, including spelling and grammar -- a grasp that is all too tenuous on many other such blogs.
Anyhow, what makes it especially worth mentioning is that they have a great video in one of the posts, which is good enough by itself but in the context of the post topic is absolutely brilliant. So rather than reposting the video here, I'll just send you over there to read and then watch.

I'm very late in mentioning this, but friend-of-blog Jack Bogdanski is having his traditional "buck-a-hit" day today, where for each unique visitor to his blog he'll donate $1 to charity.
At this point he's already had enough visitors to meet his cap on the buck-a-hit thing, but he's also passing an "e-hat" around to allow visitors to contribute a bit to the fund as well. Apropos of our web site, I put a few pennies (so to speak) into the hat myself this evening. I'd suggest that you check it out and give whatever you can to some very deserving charities in the Portland, Oregon area.
Thanks so much to Jack for opening up his pocketbook on behalf of his visitors, and thanks to all those visitors who also kicked in a little extra.

A friend of mine from here in Oregon is studying calligraphy in the last offering of a one-year program at Roehampton College in London. The story of a young American in London learning an underappreciated art with students young and old from around the world is a pretty interesting story and she tells it well. She is touring Scotland this weekend so I expect some nice pictures within a couple days. You can also find a link to her in the sidebar too.

Heartfelt condolences and well-wishes go out to Friend Of Blog Jack Bogdanski, whose quintessential Portland-area blog was hacked (perhaps?) and four years' worth of writing vanished.
He's back up and running with a new hosting service, and it looks like he's on his way to restoring much of what he had written via cached copies elsewhere on the web.
Good luck, Jack, here's hoping that you get back up to speed quickly!

Yesterday, Jack Bog's web site was inaccessible to some folks due apparently to a domain registration issue. I'm glad he's back, he's one of my main reads every day.
One of his posts that I had missed referred to an article he had posted two years ago. As things do on the web, one thing led to another and I found myself reading this old post about a bluegrass performer in Portland.
The discussion in the comments section mostly revolved around artists who speak out about political issues during their acts (not as part of their songs, mind you, but between songs). And therein was contained one of the funniest exchanges I've ever seen on a blog. In comedy, timing is everything. And this worked out perfectly:
I still think that politicians are performers . . . they just lack an instrumental accompaniment. Just dub in Mozart to any speech and a politician becomes an artist. Visa versa, remove the beat from hip hop and what do you get?

Cruising the Pew Research blog feed, I came across this report profiling bloggers.
What I found most interesting was the comparison of bloggers' news habits compared to the general population of Internet users.
Fully 95% of bloggers get news from the Internet, as opposed to 73% of all Internet users.
47% get news from a blog, whereas only 9% of the general Internet population does.
Slightly less than half of bloggers prefer getting their news from unbiased sources, while a larger-than-average group prefer getting news from sources with an opposite viewpoint from their own (24% for bloggers compared to 18% for the general population).

Poking around on Ze Frank's web site (other than at The Show, which is a must-watch every week day), I found a link to this essay on What You Can't Say. Very thought provoking.
Ze found it an interesting take on creative thought; I find it to be an interesting exercise in questioning the unquestionable, if nothing else.
Anyhow, it's a lengthy piece, but worth the read.

Workshop Zaal België from Oliver Begaz on Vimeo.
Although I finished C-md, our teachers sent me some interesting events to consider. One of these events was a workshop at Kunstencentrum België about circuit-bending led by Jethro and Micha Volders.
We (Jim Bollansée, Danny Leen, Tom Luyten, Peter Briers, Ruud Denivel, Olivier Berger and me) were given the task to develop some visuals for the The Vermin Twins show at the end of the workshop.
Following the little-scale tutorial about VGA hacking, we managed to get 8 old CRT monitors to crank out some fitting visuals for a chiptune event.
Read a more in depth report on my blog and also check out the post Micha wrote about it.
Thanks to Olivier for the video!

Remembering Cowper crash horror
WORDS can do little to heal the emotional wounds Natisha Pitt has suffered in the 20 years since the horrific Cowper bus crash.
The 34-year-old has come back to the site of the tragedy seeking closure from an event that claimed her mother Elizabeth, her brother Shawn and 19 others in one instant between 3.50 and 4am on Friday, October 20, 1989.
Aged 14 at the time, Natisha can recall little of the actual collision. She may have even been asleep.
But she does recall sitting about six seats back from the driver on the aisle side of the seat. She'd swapped places with Shawn, 11 months her senior, who didn't want to sit next to an old lady.
Natisha's brother instead sat with her mum on the seat directly in front of her.
Natisha also remembers a big family group entering the bus. One of them was pregnant.
This was most likely the Ormeshers, who had booked 10 seats on the bus for extended family and friends. Only two from the group survived.
"I'm sure there was a baby crying too," she said.
Natisha doesn't remember the impact itself but does remember waking up to what she'd assumed was rain on her face.
"I must have been knocked out ... all I smelt was diesel," she said.
"I looked around and saw everyone's stuff scattered everywhere.
"I tried to move my left leg but I couldn't move.
"I could hear the ambulances and just remember broken stuff everywhere.
"In front of me I saw my brother.
"When the SES came I said be careful of my brother. I think he had a pole in his head but I didn't really know that at the time.
"My mum - I think she went flying out and was crushed on the highway."
Natisha remembers being carried out of her seat and laid on a stretcher on the Pacific Highway, but she suffered no injuries.
In the confusion, Natisha remembers wondering if she was dreaming.
"I thought 'what's going on?' There were people rushing everywhere, there were bodies everywhere and people's property everywhere - I just couldn't believe it.
"The bus was upside down ... I thought 'did this really just happen? How come I didn't see anything?'"
Natisha was taken to Maclean Hospital, while most of the casualties were taken to Grafton Base Hospital.
With tears rolling down her face, Natisha recalled the anguishing wait she went through before finally being told about her brother and mother.
"My uncle and grandmother tuned into the morning TV and saw my face. They rushed down from Brisbane and picked me up and took me back home where I stayed with my grandmother," she said.
"My uncle had to go back down to Grafton to identify my brother and mum. It took him a long time to get over it."
Asked why she chose to return to the source of such pain, Natisha said it wasn't easy but she wanted closure.
"It's time for me to come down and try to remember what it looked like and to pay my respects to the rest of the families who've lost loved ones," she explained.
Natisha said she appreciated that people in the area had not forgotten the accident.
"I think if my mum and brother were here they would be proud of me and my kids," she said.
"It's very hard having your family taken away from you. It makes me wonder why I'm still here.
"My friends say 'how come you're not an alcoholic or a druggo - all this bad stuff has happened to you?'"
Sexually assaulted at 12, her grandfather's death two years later, the Cowper bus crash and her sister's death six years after that, and her grandmother's passing in 1995 - it's been no fairytale.
And the reason Natisha hasn't escaped with drugs or alcohols?
"It's a promise me and my brother made to ourselves - never to do that stuff," she said.
"My brother would have been playing in the Australian Open if he was still alive - he was so into tennis. He saved up all his money and bought the Agassi racquets and Pat Cash racquets."
Natisha, Shawn and Elizabeth were on their way to Natisha's grandfather's funeral in Brisbane when the accident happened.
Having had no counselling since the ordeal, Natisha has her own ways of dealing with her pain.
"My grandmother raised me to be strong-headed. I had to grow up fast," she said.
"I dealt with things on my own. I just had to get on with it.
"I just take life every day, every week and live life to the fullest - you can't forget it though."
"I could be at home feeling sorry for myself but I don't, I get on with life."
Natisha admits she's blocked out memories of that horrible day and the other tragedies of her life but said she was now preparing to face them, despite her fears.
She said she's still not ready to read the coroner's findings from the event, although she is aware the truck driver who caused the accident was found to have the stimulant ephedrine in his blood.
"I feel for his side of the family as well, going to all those inquests," she said.
Natisha said she understood the pressure of truck driving in the late '80s and the associated drug problems, saying: "It was part of his job."
- A service to mark the 20th anniversary of the crash will be held today from 11am at the memorial erected at Cowper on the old highway north along the Cowper turnoff. All are welcome to attend.

Chile upset favourites Argentina with a penalty shootout victory in the Copa America final at MetLife Stadium on Sunday to retain their title in the world`s oldest continental football competition.
With the dynamic Artur Vidal back after suspension, Chile earned themselves bragging rights as South America`s dominant team as they beat heavyweights Argentina on penalties for a second straight year in the tournament decider.
The two sides were deadlocked 0-0 after 90 minutes and also after another half an hour of extra time in a match where both the teams were reduced to 10 men in the first half.
This was to have been the match that sealed Lionel Messi's legacy. The one that silenced the doubters, that killed off the question mark hanging over his greatness, that gave him his place in the pantheon next to Diego Maradona and showed he could achieve the same success with Argentina that has become so staggeringly routine at club level. Instead, it became The Night Messi Missed.
Goalless after 120 minutes, a game that during the first half looked on course to be decided by over-zealous officiating instead had to be settled by penalties. This wasn't the first time the stomach-churning lottery of spot kicks has been needed to separate Argentina and Chile, of course. Last year, it was the heroics of Claudio Bravo and Alexis Sánchez's ice-cool Panenka that clinched the Copa América for La Roja.
What followed from there seemed almost inevitable, given the way everything about this match had been set up as the final, coronating chapter in the saga of young Leo: the two sides traded successful spot kicks, then Bravo – that man again – saved Lucas Biglia's effort. Francisco Silva, brought on late during extra-time for Sánchez, proved a perfect proxy for the hero of the 2015 shootout. He shot hard; Romero dived the wrong way; the Copa was Chile's once again.
As jubilation broke out on the Chilean bench and among the swatch of red behind the goal, Messi slumped to the ground, stunned. After the bitter consolation, in a losing cause, of the 2014 World Cup Golden Boot, here again we witnessed the cruel spectacle of this generation's greatest player stumbling with the finish line in sight. But take nothing away from Chile; at times they have been exceptional in this tournament, no more so than when thrashing a highly fancied Mexico side 7-0 in the quarter-finals. If the GOAT is to be a loser, would that it be to a team of Chile's quality.

Amazing Benefits of Segmenting your Audience for Digital Marketing
The saying 'aim for the stars and you may reach the moon', does not apply to digital marketing. It is a competitive world of achieving fixed targets at a certain budget. That is the main reason why it is advisable to segment your audience before launching a digital marketing plan.
Here are some advantages that segmenting the target audience provides –
Increased likeliness of conversion
A targeted message is much more likely to convert the target consumer into a consumer. Firstly, the message can be designed keeping the target audience in mind which makes it more relatable. Secondly, a targeted message makes the customer feel 'special' or differentiated.
A reputed digital marketing agency would prefer sending a message to a thousand people and getting four hundred assured conversions over sending ten thousand emails, most of which are likely to be treated as unimportant, ending up in the spam folder.
The aim should be to appear important to the consumer, this can be done by targeting different segments of the audience with customised messages. This practice speaks heavily against mass marketing as mass campaigning is often perceived as a scam or a matter of irrelevance by a majority of consumers.
Segmenting your audience can result in improving the focus of your marketing campaign. It can give your 'call to action' a true meaning and purpose as it is solely created for that specific group of consumers. Using such personalised call to actions improves the chances of your customers actually taking necessary action. If your digital marketing agency loses focus by getting involved in the practice of mass marketing, the desired results won't be achieved. So, it is advisable for them to follow segmented marketing as it promises more results.
Personalization Strategies
By segmenting your audience and practicing segmented marketing for a while, you may actually get to know your customer better. If customers repeatedly visit your website, you can get to know a lot about their practices and motives when they are buying products. This paves the way for building more segments and personalization strategies. It will lead to an improved customer base for you where you can easily segment them into demographic sections like their age, relationship status, or their annual income. It can lead you to gaining information about –
– Behavioural Patterns– The items they look up, the number of times they visit the site
– Preferences – You can get to know about the device they use for browsing, the browser they prefer, etc.
– Social media – By asking them to follow your business on social media, you can get to know about their online presence and loads of other information.
– Test their brand loyalty– You can truly get to know how loyal your consumer is to your brand by their responses to your repeated messages.
Increased Credibility
By segmented marketing, your business can come off as a company of credibility. Your users become more likely to –
- Answer surveys
- Respond to your messages
- Participate in other marketing activities
Just like one should be aware of his or her potential, knowing one's limitations is an advantageous feature too. A good digital marketing agency is likely to use segmented marketing as it is less costly and involves smart planning.

Vespers: Lazarus
London Design Museum
Christoph Bader, Dominik Kolb, James Weaver, Prof. Neri Oxman
A Collection of Death Masks By Neri Oxman & Members of the Mediated Matter Group
Masks created for The New Ancient Collection by Stratasys curated by Naomi Kaempfer
To debut in Fear and Love at the Design Museum, London, November 24th—April 23rd
They say that in every breath of fresh air we take, there are molecules exhaled by Jesus, Cleopatra, or Julius Caesar in their dying breath. In a very physical way, we live amongst the spirits, and they live amongst us. Lazarus is a mask designed to contain the wearer's last breath. This was the precursor—a kernel—for a larger collection of masks, entitled Vespers, speculating on, and offering a new interpretation of, the ancient death mask.
Traditionally made of a single material, such as wax or plaster, the death mask originated as a means of capturing a person's visage, keeping the deceased 'alive' through memory. Lazarus serves as an ''air urn'' memento that is a new form of 3D printed portraiture, combining the wearer's facial features while serving as a spatial enclosure for their last breath. The mask's surface is modeled after the face of the dying person, and its material composition is informed by the physical flow of air and its distribution across the surface. Unlike its traditional hand-made analogue, the design of Lazarus is entirely data driven, digitally generated, and additively manufactured. It approaches the resolution of the physical phenomenon that it is designed to capture, thereby creating a unique artifact that is perfectly customized to fit the wearer and her last breath.
The New Ancient collection produced by Stratasys, a 3D printing company, marries ancient crafts and designs of past civilizations with advanced technologies to reimagine design in and of the modern world. Created for this collection Vespers expresses the intertwining of Fear and Love through the continuity of death and life. Vespers 'masks' five imaginary martyrs. Each martyr is memorialized three times, through sequential interpretations at three different moments: the past, the present, and the future.
The New Ancient collection was curated by Naomi Kaempfer, Creative Director of Art Fashion Design at Stratasys. Neri Oxman and the Mediated Matter Group would like to thank our collaborators at Stratasys, including Naomi Kaempfer, Arita Mattsoff, Boris Belocon, Gal Begun, Yoav Bressler and Ori Moalem
