A final word on the plane pictured in Guildhall Square, Portsmouth, in 1943.
A final word on the plane pictured in Guildhall Square, Portsmouth, in 1943.
John Boxall got in touch disagreeing with the verdict of two other readers about the identity of the aircraft. He believes it was a Fairey Fulmar, not a Fairey Battle.
John says: 'If you look at the fuselage between the roundel and the tailplane, it clearly says Royal Navy and you will also notice that the guard in the enclosure is a naval rating. Now look at the bottom of the fuselage below the leading edge of the roundel and the starboard catapult spool is visible. The Battle was not a carrier-borne aircraft and would therefore have no provision for catapult launch.
'These two aircraft are very similar but as a fighter the Fulmar had eight .303 machine guns while the Battle had only one in the rear cockpit and one in the starboard wing.'
He adds: 'I am not aware the Fleet Air Arm ever operated Battles and would venture to suggest that the photograph shows a Fulmar and not a Battle.'

Bicycle Network has made a name for themselves through tremendous cycling events. Around the Bay, Great Victorian Bike Ride, Ride the Night and of course the Peaks Challenge. These iconic cycling events provide a platform to raise funds for the amazing campaigns that improve cycle safety and infrastructure in Australia.
Peaks Tassie is of course the third event in the Peaks Challenge, an event that started in Victoria's High Country has become recognised around the world for its 4000m elevation over 235km.
Several years ago I took part in the Falls Creek Peaks Challenge and was incredibly impressed by the organisation of Bicycle Network and their merry volunteers. Any organisation that can safely coordinate a bunch of mad cyclists descending Falls Creek at the crack of dawn must be organised.
Starting at Devonport at 6.30am Sunday morning, I was somewhat surprised by the participant numbers (550 this year). I expected more given the history of these rides and this being the inaugural Tassie event. It turns out the lower numbers were probably a blessing for the debut.
After a detailed briefing where the steepness of the descents was mentioned once….or one hundred times, we were off with a little trepidation. The misty conditions did nothing for the already sketchy downhill sections. One thing the mist did do however, was provide a special atmosphere. At times you would find yourself climbing a hill with no other riders around - only the mist, tall tree ferns and fresh air to keep you company.
It was somewhat unfortunate that the weather didn't break when riding Echo Valley and Cethana Road. We drove that section the following day when conditions were perfect and the landscape is simply amazing. No wonder Lonely Planet ranks this area as one of the Top 10 places in the World to ride.
The first 110km up to the lunch break seemed to pass quickly. This was aided by the frequent change in landscape and a bubbly bunch of fellow riders that were always willing to chat. Its at this point a special mention should be given to the volunteers and also Police/motorbike support. The Tassie locals, Police and various governments groups have clearly embraced this ride and their enthusiasm certainly enhanced the whole experience.
After lunch, the mood shifted a little. With 110km in the legs, there was still plenty of riding to be done. The climb up to Cradle Mountain and Dove Lake involved open plains that have the potential to cause havoc due to the wind. This year wasn't too bad.
As we rolled up to the car park of Cradle Mountain, it was somewhat disheartening to learn there was still 7km of climbing to go! But it was a nice climb that was appropriately topped-off with gorgeous scenery at Dove Lake.
The spirits were back up as we passed halfway and commenced the trip home. At this stage I found the wheel of Peter and Brooke and we commenced swapping turns. If there's a time you want to roll turns and sit behind a nice wheel, this is the time as the open roads leave you susceptible to strong winds.
After the descent down Cradle Mountain to the Moina rest stop, there was an uneasy feeling in my gut. It wasn't from the extra pieces of cake I'd been slamming down, but from a sense that the worst was still to come.
The three of us continued to work together through more brilliant scenery. We worked our way towards Spellmans Road which had been mentioned a number of times during the briefing. There was plenty of talk about gradients and how tough Spellmans was, but on some occasions the hype is not always accurate. In this case, the hype was deadly accurate. Spellmans Road is a belter of a climb that is guaranteed to be etched into cycling folklore in Australia. Compact cranks and a 28 cassette for this beauty.
After Spellmans, the remaining climbs into Davenport seemed easy, but nothing should be taken for granted after the long day of climbing. Just like the top of Cradle Mountain, there are a number of open sections that could potentially cause drama on windy days. The biggest issue during the closing kilometres however, was riding past the pub at Forth. If the sun was out, the ride would have finished there and a cool frothy promptly ordered.
As you meander towards the finish line, the coastal scenes provide a idyllic backdrop as you gain a massive sense of accomplishment. To think that at 6.30am we were on the start line.
To all of the team at Bicycle Network and the amazing people of Tasmania who made this happen, thank you. Really looking forward to heading back to Tassie for this ride and others.
Checkout the brilliant video from the day.

Eden Valley Ski Resort is perched in the mountains just above the city of Busan, South Korea's second city and largest port. Given the location on the south coast and the fairly low altitude, it should be no surprise that Eden Valley sees very little snow and generally doesn't have great riding conditions. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the size of the place – don't get me wrong, it's definitely small, but it's larger than I was expecting for the local hill of a south coast city and is of comparable size to the Seoul area hills (see this Korean ski resorts size comparison)
Eden Valley: the hill
Highest lifted point: 730m
Lowest skiable point: 570m
Vertical drop: 160m
Lifts: 3
Runs: 5
Longest run: 1.5km ('Uranus')
Terrain park: no
Halfpipe: no
Homepage & piste map (Korean only)
The vertical drop is an underwhelming 160m, with 3 chairlifts. There are a handful of routes down on wide open pistes. To be honest it's a mediocre piece of terrain with a gentle gradient, and it doesn't take long to ski the place out.
It definitely isn't worth travelling all the way from Seoul to hit Eden Valley (believe me – I'm speaking from experience! You can hit High1 in the same travel time from Seoul), but if you're in Busan or Ulsan it's a decent enough spot to get your fix. It also has cool views, both of Busan below and of the wind turbines along the ridge.
There's no freestyle at all at Eden Valley, so it really doesn't have much for advanced riders; it's a fine place for learning though, and for those pushing on to intermediate.
Eden Valley is good for:
People living in Busan & Ulsan (and elsewhere in South Korea's southeast corner)
It's pretty cool to snowboard directly under the massive wind turbines on the ridge – the only such place I know of (other than Vancouver's Grouse Mountain, but they only have one small turbine). Also if you're up there at night you can catch some views of the city lights below.
Eden Valley is not so good for:
Freestyle (there isn't any)
Access. Public transport access is poor, even from Busan (see below)
Eden Valley lift tickets
Eden Valley follows the standard ticketing model in Korea, with the operating hours split into day & night by a 2-hour snow grooming break at 5pm; the daytime hours are subdivided into morning and afternoon, and the nighttime hours are subdivided into evening and midnight. You can get a lift ticket for any of those slots, pay a little more for a 5-hour ticket, or more again for two slots combined, as shown here (these are the 2016/17 rates, click to enlarge):
Update: this season's rates are shown here
Eden Valley: accommodation
There's a hotel at Eden Valley right at the base of the ski slopes, which you can book here
There are also some hotels nearby in Yangsan (see listings) – they're of the 'love motel' variety, which might put you off, or might make for an interesting Korean experience!
If you'd rather stay in Busan proper, search for Busan hotel deals on Agoda (of course they also have plenty of listings in Seoul, too)
Airbnb is also a great choice for Busan – hosts usually have it set up so you can arrive & check in by yourself without having to wait around or meet anyone, and the housing standards are decent with underfloor heating and excellent internet connections as standard. If you haven't used Airbnb before, you can get a 35-dollar discount off your first rental by signing up through Snow Guide Korea; simply click on this link and register!
How to get to Eden Valley
There is a shuttle bus, but it runs by reservation only, only when there's a minimum of 7 passengers, and costs 3,000 won from Yangsan (양산) Station or 4,000 won from central Busan (부산); if you want to try and book it, you have to call New Busan Tour on 051-806-8811 (details here (Korean only); shuttles from Ulsan 울산, Gimhae 김해, and Daegu 대구 are also listed on that page). Otherwise, you have to take a taxi up.
Yangsan Station is the northern terminus of Busan Metro Line 2; this is the closest you can get by public transport, and the best place from which to take a taxi. A taxi from Yangsan should be around 20,000 won.
If coming from Seoul:
Whatever you do, don't try to take a taxi from Wondong Station on the main Seoul – Daegu – Busan railway line (as advised elsewhere online!). I actually tried this, but Wondong's a tiny little town with no taxi rank and I ended up visiting the lone coffee shop and asking where I could find a cab. They tried calling one for me, but none would come out there: I ended up having to get back on the train (after a long wait) one more stop to Mulgeum and taking a taxi from there, which is significantly further than from Yangsan metro station.
In other words; if coming from Seoul, take the KTX all the way to Busan, then ride the metro up to Yangsan, then take a taxi from there (or use the shuttle bus if you're able to arrange it). But really, if you're willing to spend that much time and money travelling from Seoul, High1 and Yongpyong are much, much better calls!

Mr Christopher de Souza: To ask the Minister for Foreign Affairs (a) whether Myanmar can be compelled to remedy the human tragedy facing the Rohingya people under articles 4 and 39 and other relevant articles of the ASEAN Human Rights Declaration (AHRD); and (b) what other kinds of diplomatic pressures can be applied on Myanmar to curb the alleged discrimination of the Rohingya people pursuant to article 22 and other relevant articles of the AHRD.
Dr Intan Azura Mokhtar: To ask the Minister for Foreign Affairs with Singapore assuming the ASEAN chair in 2018, whether there are plans for more concerted efforts to compel the Myanmar government to stop the discrimination and humanitarian catastrophe of the Rohingya people.
Mr Louis Ng Kok Kwang: To ask the Minister for Foreign Affairs (a) how does Singapore intend to support the government of Myanmar in restoring peace and stability in the Rakhine state; (b) how important is it to Singapore (as chair of ASEAN in 2018) and ASEAN in responding to the urgent situation in Rakhine or conflict in any member states that may threaten the stability of the region; and (c) whether the Government of Singapore will consider providing humanitarian assistance through the government of Bangladesh given that Bangladesh will build a refugee camp for more than 400,000 displaced Rohingya refugees.
Mr Pritam Singh: To ask the Minister for Foreign Affairs (a) what is the Government's assessment of the humanitarian tragedy facing the Rohingya population in Myanmar; and (b) whether there is a constructive role that ASEAN can play to address the crisis.
In Myanmar's Northern Rakhine State, a humanitarian disaster has unfolded in the aftermath of a terrorist attack on 25 August 2017 and subsequent related acts of violence. The conflict has resulted in loss of lives, destruction of homes and the displacement of large numbers of people. The situation in the Rakhine State is a complex inter-communal issue with deep historical roots, dating back more than half a century. There are no quick-fixes. The immediate task at hand is for all the parties involved to cease actions that will further worsen the situation on the ground, so that humanitarian assistance can reach those desperately in need regardless of ethnicity and religious affiliation. We urge the restoration of peace, stability and the rule of law in the Rakhine State. It is the responsibility of every government to protect every civilian and to restore law and order. Comprehensive, long-term and sustainable solutions must also be found to address the underlying challenges and build trust among the different stakeholders and communities, and define the legal status of everyone in Rakhine State. As a close friend and neighbour, Singapore stands ready to support the Myanmar government in whatever way we can to make a positive contribution.
2 Given the scale of the humanitarian needs, the Singapore Government will be offering bilateral humanitarian aid to both Myanmar and Bangladesh. We hope to contribute to the efforts to help all affected communities on both sides of the border regardless of ethnicity and religion. For Myanmar, we will be offering an aid package comprising approximately S$100,000 worth of supplies from the Singapore Government. For Bangladesh, given that it is experiencing a more severe refugee crisis, we will be offering two humanitarian loads comprising approximately S$200,000 worth of supplies from the Singapore Government.
3 Our community organisations have also launched fundraising drives for the affected communities in Rakhine State. I would like to highlight three such organisations in my reply.
4 The first is the Singapore Red Cross (SRC), which has been providing humanitarian assistance in Rakhine State since 2012. The SRC has launched a month-long public fundraising appeal[1] and committed S$27,150 worth of relief items to be distributed in Rakhine State. This is in addition to an earlier contribution of US$50,000 in shelter items to the Rakhine State. The SRC will work with the Myanmar Red Cross and the Bangladesh Red Crescent to ensure that the relief items reach the affected communities.
5 The second is the Rahmatan Lil Alamin Foundation (RLAF), a community based charity, which has raised more than S$300,000 thus far.[2] The RLAF will work with the UN High Commission for Refugees to distribute aid to the refugees in Bangladesh. Earlier in December 2016, RLAF and our local communities had also channelled more than S$180,000 of humanitarian aid to affected communities in the Rakhine State.
6 Mercy Relief will also raise funds, and is planning to deploy a team to conduct aid distribution in Bangladesh. Mercy Relief will work with Action Aid International, an established international non-governmental organisation in Bangladesh, as well as the Bangladesh Ministry of Disaster Management and Relief, to distribute S$100,000 worth of items including solar lamps, blankets and shelter for affected communities.
7 The funds raised will be used to provide humanitarian aid to all affected communities in that region, regardless of ethnicity or religion.
8 Members have also asked about the role ASEAN can play. Mr Christopher De Souza asked specifically if Myanmar can be compelled under the relevant articles in the ASEAN Human Rights Declaration (AHRD). The AHRD reaffirms ASEAN Member States' common interest and commitment to the promotion and protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms, as well as the purposes and the principles enshrined in the ASEAN Charter. Although the AHRD does not impose legal obligations, we expect all ASEAN countries to uphold the spirit and the principles set out in the document.
9 The situation in Myanmar affects all ASEAN countries as well as the wider international community. It is in our common interest to work with the Myanmar government to support its efforts to restore peace and stability, and to find long-term solutions to this complex communal problem in the Rakhine State. While the principle of non-interference is enshrined in the ASEAN Charter, the Charter also calls for enhanced consultations on matters of common interest of ASEAN.
10 The ASEAN Foreign Ministers recently held an informal meeting in New York on 23 September 2017 to discuss the issue of the Rakhine State. The meeting began with Myanmar Minister of State for Foreign Affairs U Kyaw Tin's briefing on the developments in the Rakhine State, followed by a frank and robust exchange of views among the Foreign Ministers.
11 Following the meeting, the Philippines issued an ASEAN Chairman's Statement on the Humanitarian Situation in the Rakhine State, which condemned the recent acts of violence and welcomed Myanmar's efforts to resolve the situation on the ground. The Chairman's Statement also reflected the undertaking by all ASEAN Member States to support Myanmar's humanitarian relief effort, and to activate the ASEAN Coordinating Centre for Humanitarian Assistance on disaster management (AHA Centre) to work with the Myanmar Government-led mechanism, in cooperation with the Red Cross Movement, to deliver humanitarian assistance to all displaced inhabitants without discrimination. This was in line with the Foreign Ministers' recognition of the need for increased humanitarian access to all affected communities.
12 The Myanmar government has acknowledged that they need to address this crucible of inter-communal tension in the Rakhine State. One year ago, State Counsellor Daw Aung San Suu Kyi established a commission led by former UN Secretary General Kofi Annan to make long-term recommendations to address the challenges facing the ethnically and religiously divided Rakhine State. The Advisory Commission on Rakhine State has submitted its final report and recommendations. Daw Aung San Suu Kyi has expressed her government's determination to implement them fully and "within the shortest time possible". A 15-member inter-ministerial committee has been formed to look into the recommendations. Myanmar has also welcomed the offers of the international community to contribute towards the government's humanitarian assistance programme. We hope that these efforts will be fruitful.
13 There is an urgent need to restore peace, stability, harmony and reconciliation among all the communities in Rakhine State. As ASEAN Member States, we are all committed to abide by the principles set out in the ASEAN Charter to enhance good governance and the rule of law. ASEAN has conveyed its hope and support for a long term solution to a complex inter-communal issue with deep historical roots. While responsibility to resolve the complex issues involving the peoples of the Rakhine State ultimately rests with all the parties concerned in Myanmar themselves, Singapore and our fellow ASEAN Member States can do our part to support efforts by all parties to work towards a viable solution, so that affected communities can rebuild their lives.
. . . . .
[1] As of 1 October 2017, the SRC has raised S$33,510.
[2] As of 2 October 2017, the RLAF has raised S$307,000.

5 Steps to Better Advertising ROI
I like the article below because we have worked with several small businesses that don't have a marketing plan because they don't believe their budget is significant enough. Our goal is to come up with a marketing plan that will make your budget work as hard as possible with a higher ROI.
5 Steps to Better Advertising ROI
If you think that, because your business is small, you can advertise without having a defined marketing strategy, Ed Yeaker disagrees with you.
"In the acting business, there are no small parts, only small actors, and there is no small advertising plan, either," says Yeaker, president of Ed Yeaker Associates, Inc. Advertising and Marketing Services in White Plains, N.Y."No matter the size of the business, ad budget or extent of activity, the advertising investment is always huge."
Yeaker, a former adjunct marketing instructor at Pace University, offers five tips for small businesses that want to get more ka-ching out of their advertising.
1. Have a Clear Marketing Direction — and Stick to It. "Advertising helter skelter just because of aggressive media sales reps, friends' suggestions, status and emotional appeals usually has little or no value, or even hurts the business," Yeaker says. "Every business, no matter the size, needs a planned approach to marketing-directed advertising that supports the company's goals and allows it to prosper." The key elements of a solid plan should include:
Situation analysis, including market data, consumer profiles and attitudes, plus competitive appraisal;
Assessment of problems and weaknesses along with opportunities and strengths; Review of the overall business and its financial goals; and
Objectives, strategies and rationale for the money you're spending on advertising.
2. Distinctive Positioning. You must separate your business from competitors selling the same thing in a way that is meaningful, memorable and believable. Then you have to apply that identity consistently and visibly in every facet of your business and operation. Strong positioning is at the heart of effective creative strategy for advertising, but only if it is meaningful and memorable. Being believable is at the heart of advertising success. "The stronger the assertion, the greater the disbelief," Yeaker notes.
3. It's All About Customer Benefits. It's not what you have to sell, but what customers need that's important, even if the customer doesn't know (yet) that she needs it. And your advertising's focus doesn't end when you produce the commercial, print ad or Internet campaign. That's just the beginning. Understanding how customers use and experience your product should drive your ongoing promotion. Yeaker notes, for example, that some bedroom furniture manufacturers advertise the benefit of their materials and construction, emphasizing durability. But when he designed a campaign for a client in this space, the consumer promise was "sweet dreams," because research showed a good night's sleep was the key emotional benefit of the product. "Sure, they want a good product and a fair price, but first things first when you're trying to get their attention," he says.
4. Integrate All Promotional Activity. Yeaker suggests you take a top-down approach to your advertising strategy so you get results greater than the sum of the parts. Rather than initially focusing on the individual components of an ad campaign — the media where the ad will run, the creative content, the price you'll pay, the number of customers you will convert, and fitting together all the different types of ads and promotions — think first about the problem you are solving for your business. This is a typical "forest and trees" issue: if you center your attention on the mechanics of advertising and promotion and how well they look and sound individually, you may miss the opportunity (which is really a necessity) of making sure they all add up to a a well-integrated whole that delivers new profits for your business. Taking a top-down approach assures "a cohesive look and attitude so that each of your ads is instantly recognized as being uniquely yours in every application, from print media advertising to TV and radio, from mailings to telemarketing, plus sales literature and especially, Internet marketing," Yeaker says.
5. Accountable Performance. At its heart, advertising is an experiment. You can't have perfect knowledge of what will work, so it's critical to test your assumptions. There are a couple of key ways to measure and analyze advertising to make it accountable:
Creative development, with some preliminary research to confirm viable appeals and offers, followed by testing of different messages and executions; Testing different messages within each media you use; Testing the demographics and psychographics of the lists you use for direct mail and telemarketing; and Testing media in print and broadcast — each with virtually infinite variations and combinations.
While all this testing and preparation may sound complex and expensive to do, it's actually much cheaper than doing what most small businesses do.

great post! so many people underestimate the power of having a clear plan. Especially with the rise of social media, many people (especially small businesses) think that all the need to do is send out a tweet or facebook status or two but it is so much more than that! today's marketing strategies need to be all-encompassing and require a lot of patience waiting for all the little odds and ends to come together for a big return. thanks for the insight!

AHHHH, Oh God ... No, don't ... UHH, please ... I ... STOP!! I can't stand ... AIIEEEE.
from the draft screenplay of "Brazil," by Terry Gilliam, Tom Stoppard and Charles McKeown.
SAM presses the button for the 50th floor. The lift doors
close on him and the CHARLADY. From somewhere far away
there is the groaning shriek of a man in pain. SAM glances
around the lift. There appears to be an air conditioning
vent in the ceiling.
SAM glances enquiringly at the CHARLADY who merely smiles
at him. Another scream is heard.
What's that?
The CHARLADY smiles again.
Doesn't that disturb you?
The CHARLADY fiddles with something in her ears and pulls
out a pair of wax earplugs.
Beg your pardon?
The lift arrives.
The lift arrives. SAM steps out. The CHARLADY remains in
the lift. The doors close. SAM heads down surgically clean
white-tiled corridor.
Passing a white-coated TECHNICIAN monitoring what appears
to be electric meters, SAM comes to a door with 5001.
Above the door a red light is glowing. SAM knocks. The red
light goes out and a green light comes on. SAM enters.
71 INT. ROOM 500l DAY 71
Inside there is a connecting door to he next door room but
the only person in the immediate room is a pleasant-
looking FEMALE typist, wearing headphones, chewing gum and
typing with great facility. SAM approaches the TYPIST who,
busily typing, twinkles a greeting (mimed) and silently
mouths the words ...
It won't be long now.
(she carries on typing)
SAM nods, and stands quietly by her. He can hear tiny
sounds coming through her headphones. He looks down at the
piece of paper in the typewriter. He reacts a bit
strangely, perhaps even winces. We see he close up of the
words being struck crisply on paper.
AHHHH, Oh God ... No, don't ... UHH,
please ... I ... STOP!! I can't stand
(quietly, still typing)
Can I help you?
She is looking at SAM helpfully, holding one of the
earphones away from her ear. From this earphone we can
just hear quietly ...
Oooooooh ... aaaaaahhh ... please ...
arrrrrghhhh no ... please ... Oh God,
No ... No, stop, I don't know ...
I'm looking for Officer 412/L.
The TYPIST nods smiling. She puts back the earphone and
carries on typing.
I'm sure he won't be long now.
She types a little more but suddenly stops.
I thought so!
She takes off the earphones and takes the paper and
carbonums out of her typewriter and starts collating all
the different copies.
Through the frosted glass door leading into the next area,
SAM can see a FIGURE come through a double door and turn
left, making a silly 'hi' sign to the TYPIST as he exits
from sight. She is charmed. Almost immediately after them,
a white-coated TECHNICIAN exits, but to the left.
You can go in now.

The United States of paranoia
Two weeks ago I was in Russia, touring Saint Petersburg with a guide. She reminded us of a terrorist attack on their subway a few weeks earlier and hinted darkly about a false flag. "People are saying Putin did it to boost his popularity." Like most of her friends, she disliked Putin.
Wow, I thought. Russians are really paranoid if they go for crazy conspiracy theories like that. But then I realized that we're no better. We've seen no evidence that Trump was influenced by shadowy Russian figures, but we've still seen a media feeding frenzy about it. But the absence of evidence doesn't seem to matter, because along the way our politics became Russified through media-fed conspiracy theories.
It started with stories about the Kremlin's influence on the Trump campaign. There was no evidence, just innuendo, but in the Russified mainstream media you don't need evidence. Pretty soon it was hard to tell the difference between the Washington Post and the National Inquirer.
So I have a message for the conspiracy-mongers on the right. Lay off Mueller. Stop with the lunatic speculations about firing him.
What that gave us was Attorney General Sessions' recusal from the investigation, the Comey firing, and the appointment of Robert Mueller as special counsel to investigate the matter.
We've had a long experience with special and independent counsels, and it's a mixed bag. In Nixon's time, special counsels were given a broad mandate to investigate any wrongdoing by the president, and Nixon's decision to fire independent special counsel Archibald Cox was the proximate cause of the president's downfall.
In other cases, however, giving someone unlimited resources and the broadest mandate to go after a public official didn't seem like the greatest idea. Liberals loved it when special counsel Patrick Fitzgerald indicted Scooter Libby, but were considerably less happy when independent counsel Ken Starr took a probe about financial irregularities into an investigation of Bill Clinton's sex life.
That's why, when Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein appointed Mueller, he gave him a narrow mandate. Mueller was asked to investigate any links or coordination between the Russian government at the Trump campaign, or any matter that may arise directly from this, or (given the Comey firing) any obstruction of justice.
So what should Mueller do now? Let me mention a helpful Law Latin tag: ex abundante cautela. It means "out of an abundance of caution." It's how lawyers should practice their profession, if they don't want to be sued for malpractice. And in an abundance of caution, Mueller and his team should diligently follow every lead in the exercise of their mandate. That means looking for any evidence of a financial payoff from Russia to Trump or a member of his team made to influence the campaign. An abundance of caution also includes empanelling a Grand Jury, to take evidence under oath.
That might prove a headache for someone like Paul Manafort who served as a lobbyist for the Russian-backed former president of Ukraine. It's not going to be a problem for Trump himself, however. So he might have sold some condos to a Russian private citizen ten years back. That's chicken feed to Trump. With his kind of money, he's basically non-bribable. It would like trying to bribe Bill Gates with twenty smackeroos.
There's another reason why things that happen ten years back don't matter. Mueller's mandate was to investigate the Trump campaign, which didn't begin until he launched it in June 2015. Can you imagine some Russian in 2007 telling Trump, "Hey, maybe you'll run for president in 2016, so let me buy an oceanfront today so I can join the campaign." Even my paranoid Russian guide wasn't that crazy.
So I have a message for the conspiracy-mongers on the right. Lay off Mueller. Stop with the lunatic speculations about firing him. He was a Marine platoon commander in Vietnam, where he won a Bronze Star and Purple Heart. He's one of the most respected people in Washington, a 72-year old Republican who doesn't owe anything to anyone.
And lay off his staff. Yes, they've donated to the Democratic Party, most of them. That's doesn't mean much. Just about every lawyer in D.C. has donated to the Dems. And they'd be happy to wrap this up quickly to get back to their high paying jobs in private practice.
And maybe start believing Trump's professions of innocence. If only because the alternative is so unbelievable that it takes you into Russian-style paranoia. Leave that for the Washington Post. Expect that, when the Mueller probe winds down, probably in a year, there will be no indictments except possibly for a few greedy souls lower down on the food chain.
And very possibly not even that. Let's not get sucked into conspiracy theories left or right. How about we go back to the assumption that, until proven otherwise, people should be given the benefit of the doubt, that they should be presumed to be honorable.
That's a message for Trump too: Be cool.

The broadcast's opening number began with Elton John singing a song from Best Musical winner Billy Elliot, which led into a medley that featured several current Broadway shows, culminating in all of the performers singing "Let the Sun Shine In" together on stage as Hair's hippies prowled through the aisles and danced with Tony attendees. The rest of the ceremony – for better or for worse – was similarly eventful, and was jam-packed with musical numbers this year (including songs from touring shows Legally Blonde, Mamma Mia, and Jersey Boys). Neil Patrick Harris proved to be a great host, with a relaxed demeanor and a sharp wit – he also sang a hilarious closing song recapping highlights from the ceremony. Big winners during the night included Best Play winner God of Carnage and Best Revival of a Play winner The Norman Conquests. Actors that took home trophies included Angela Lansbury and Geoffrey Rush, whose acceptance speeches were particular highlights, Next To Normal's Alice Ripley, West Side Story's Karen Olivo, and the trio of young men who play the title role in Billy Elliot.

Following my new ideas for Trenchers and how I believe they should play I wanted to try a max-sized unit. I also found the Trench Buster to be absolutely brutal so I wanted to see if I could include another. By taking out Aiyana + Holt & Murdoch I could get the max Trenchers and the second Buster. By taking out Arlan I could get Ragman. Let's go!
:: Lists ::
- Reinholdt
- Stormwall
- Charger
Trenchers (max)
Trench Buster x2
Kromac2:: Pre-Battle Thoughts & Deployment ::
- Warpwolf Stalker x2
- Feral Warpwolf
- Ghetorix
- Wilder
Lord of the Feast
Alten Ashley
Shifting Stones
Blackclad x2
A couple of changes on the Circle side as well. Interesting! Furthermore he now went first and the map was slightly modified. Based on the idea to have Trenchers more centrally, I tried to imagine what the board would look like at the end of the first round. I had an idea of the Trenchers pushing up with the Stormwall centrally and busters on the flanks. I deployed accordingly and placed Caine on my right flank, anticipating Circle to shift left again.
:: Game ::
Circle runs up and indeed it is slightly left. One Stalker moves right and the Blackclads hang back.
My reply is to get the Stormwall up but beware of the Blackclads. Going second vs Circle has always been hard and I found this to be no exception. At least I managed to keep the Stormwall safe by keeping it outside of Hunter's Mark range. As I intended I also got the Trenchers up in front. I tried a CRA on Ashley which left her on 1W and tried a CRA on one of the central Wolves which also missed. Snipe on these guys would be interesting! The Busters were positioned on either flank and the Charger was positioned to shoot into the center and/or contest the left flank.
Big mistake and Circle exploits it: By placing Reinholdt -and- Ragman right behind the Stormwall instead of behind the Fence suddenly the Lord of the Feast has a beautiful shot at making a huge mess in my back lines. He shoots the Stormwall, teleports behind and start throwing out attacks. Luckily he misses Reinholdt after taking out Ragman and his journey ends there. He's still holding down Caine2 though. Annoying. Circle then decides to force the issue and the beasts all push up heavily under Kromac's feat.
I spend forever figuring out what to do. I am trying to look for an approach to buy time but every single idea I come up with lead to Kromac moving to 2-0 on scenario easily. Instead I decide to go all out offensively. My intention is to kill a Wolf or two in the middle, commit the Trenchers and Stormwall, hold a couple of Trenchers in reserve alongside the Busters and let Caine's feat and Busters clear up hopefully enough in the next turn.
The Charger starts shooting the central Warpwolf. He doesn't want to use hyper aggressive now, I had anticipated as much. Trenchers mini-feat and I leave cloud defenses for Caine and the busters, having set them up with the proper distance the turn before. MAT6 isn't great but I land a couple of hits on the Wolves anyway and do some damage at least. Stormwall follows up, being fully fueled by Caine it hurts. The Warpwolf dies and the Feral is left at ~half boxes. Caine then clears out the Lord of the Feast and jumps behind the wall. Annoyingly I forgot to spend his last focus trying to land a Grievous Wounds shot on Feral, which would've been great seeing as its body was crippled. However I still felt I was in a good position.
Kromac throws out Primal for the Stalker and Ghetorix, killing a Trencher and lightning striking away. Feral kills a few Trenchers and Ghetorix + Stalker take out Stormwall.
Trenchers move in to ensure I have flank sources. Charger aims + backstrike on Ghetorix so it pretty much doesn't care about melee bonus. Quite a bit of damage is dealt. Busters then charge and both deal horrendous amounts of damage. Caine2 follows up with feat which takes out the rest, including a Trick Shot on the Blackclad which gets the Wilder.
With just Kromac, Ashley and Stones remaining and being down 0-1 Circle concedes the game.
Victory to the Swans!
Plan worked out well enough and I felt I got more out of the Trenchers this time around. Having them work more or less as a shield and then charge with them first and follow up with what's behind while you lead cloud covers for the 2nd wave really worked great. It's very counter-intuitive to how I've usually played and I'm certain there's a myriad of small tips and tricks to master to get the most out of them in this way. Cautious advance also really helps them stay annoying early on: Not being able to land stuff like Hunter's Mark on them means that sending in anything just commits so much.
The big blunder was obviously crowding around the Stormwall early on. I should've used the fence for both Reinholdt and Ragman regardless and the Lord of the Feast had a huge target which could potentially have been game breaking considering the changes to back strike as well (he would've gotten an attempt on Caine, not bad but at least I would've had Bullet Dodger up). Luckily for me the 7+ on Reinholdt missed.
As for the list overall it's hard to say if this is the right configuration. It's easy to get tunnel vision when you play against the same army/faction. I need more experience and for it to face a wider range of opponents. I'm trying to find a Retribution matchup and I'm hoping for a game vs Legion soon as well.

Lyle Lovett is one of those rare musicians that has earned a critic's pass of sorts. Thanks to decade's worth of brilliant songs, he's allowed to put out a weaker album every now and then. Natural Forces, his latest, is not bad, but again not among his best. Though Lovett has managed to cast a pretty big net beyond the traditional country music fan with past albums, the dozen songs that make up Natural Forces are aimed more at the cowboy booted crowd this time around. Half of the songs on this one, including the addictively twangy "Pantryâ€, were written by Lovett; The rest by other Lone Star State greats like Eric Taylor, Don Sanders, Tommy Elskes, David Ball, Vince Bell, Robert Earl Keen, and Lovett favorite Townes Van Zandt. Natural Forces may not be his best effort, but even a mediocre Lovett is still a pretty good thing.

Last night Connor hit the wall. He's body was screaming "Put me to bed," but his mind was going to fight every last urge to slumber. His tiredness manifest itself in general unpleasantness and disobedience. After having about all I could take, I instructed him to just lie down in his bed. At that point, it appeared that Connor waived the white flag and yielded to his fatigue. He ascended the stairs to his top bunk and lay his head on the pillow.
I then read the boys one of my favorite children's books, "Wilfrid Gordon McDonald Partridge." It's a book about a little boy who tries to discover the answer to the question, "What is a memory?" He learns it can be warm, and old, and more precious than gold (among others).
After the book, I climbed up into Connor's bunk and laid my body parallel to his. We both gazed at the ceiling, staring at the spackle. Connor pointed to the ceiling and showed me all the things he imagined the spackle resembled (a hand, a bear, a lizard). It was our indoor version of star gazing. It was peaceful and interesting and endearing.
Afterwards, I thought a memory is something that can be simple, but amazing...like staring at spackling on the ceiling.

We are always interested in hearing about how our software is used. All feedback is useful, whether good or bad! Please do let us know how you get on.
"Students who have made full use of the Statistics for the Terrified package have universally found this to be an extremely useful resource in getting up to speed prior to the course with some of the basic building blocks of statistical methods, and in revising some of the introductory content we cover on the unit. ... Keep up the good work!"
Eldin Fahmy
School for Policy Studies, University of Bristol
"Well, I aced my stats course and I have to give credit to your program. It gave me straight forward explanations about some terrifying questions and I could go back and review as many times as I needed. All in all, you have a great product."
Mark Edenfield
"I have found Statistics for the Terrified to be a valuable tool in helping students to grasp some core concepts in statistical testing such as the standard error, confidence intervals and hypothesis testing. I have found the interactive multi-media element of Statistics for the Terrified to be particularly powerful in this regard."
Professor Steve Strand
Institute of Education, Warwick University
"Being a senior academic teaching research to undergraduate and post graduate health care students,
the inevitable ogre of statistics appears early in the students experience of my courses. There are few,
if any, ways that I have discovered that have my students running for their statistics books with
enthusiasm and glee. Needless to say the common fear of numbers and the often complex explanations
offered to underpin basic statistical understanding tend to elicit an, at best, lukewarm response
and at worst, total denial. However, I have been using Statistics for the Terrified now for the last
few years and for those students that use it it has been a transformation. The interactive nature,
plenty of visual examples and clear and straightforward explanations of the basic concepts behind
probability, data distributions, measures of central tendency and spread and common statistical tests
means, first that they don't have to listen to me droning on, second the independent nature of the
experience increases both life long and deeper learning and lastly provides me with an initial direction
in which to send them when they ask the more simple questions.
"So........they get to be less bored of me, they learn in a deeper and more individual way and I don't have to spend lots of time reiterating the basics to hundreds of students"
David Newell
Research Director, AECC
"Congratulations for this fantastic piece of software. Certainly your software does fulfill my needs, and it also proves useful when it comes to just refresh a specific topic. One could consider it as well as an "ongoing refresher course", very handy not only for beginners in statistics. Let me know if and when new versions are out. And BTW, it works perfectly under Windows 7 Ultimate. "
Jesus Vaquero, MD, MSc
"Concept Stew supported us from start to finish in implementing this for our students - from providing the software in the most appropriate format for our needs to offering a support line for our students, they have been with us all the way, and always with a cheery message to make us feel like valued customers. We're looking forward to working with them as the product develops."
Sharon Boyd
eProgramme Coordinator, Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies
"Stats for the Terrified has been very useful, and the tutorial was (and still is) excellent. It took me (a complete novice) through the tricky paths of statistics in a practical way, and, having guided me to what particular statistical analysis was most appropriate, then allowed me to 'play' with the data to see what effect it would have on the final outcome. Good luck with the new version!"
"Statistics for the Terrified has been excellent for getting undergraduate students 'engaged' with the idea that statistics are necessary and an important aspect of the data analysis, not just an added complication to the interpretation of their experimental investigations. The students become engaged by 'doing' something and participating in the process of thinking through the analysis.
"The new version looks great - well done! Thanks for a great product!"
Paul Tatner, Academic Director, Life, Sport & Earth Sciences
School of Engineering & Science, University of Paisley
"I think your software is first class and have been through all the tutorials several times. If you bring out an advanced version of the software I would like to know as I would definately buy it. Best wishes from an impressed user of your software."

"'What I came to say was: Have you seen Small anywhere about?'
'I don't think so,' said Pooh. And then, after thinking a little more, he said: 'Who is Small?'
'One of my friends-and-relations,' said Rabbit carelessly.
This didn't help Pooh much, because Rabbit had so many friends-and-relations, and of such different sorts and sizes, that he didn't know whether he ought to be looking for Small at the top of an oak-tree or in the petal of a buttercup."
