I will not bother seeing Madonna anymore in concerts. I am a die hard fan and am beyond pissed how disrespectful she has been towards her fans on this tour. No thanks I would much rather see Gaga in Vegas or even Cher who seem to stick to a schedule and have more consideration for their fans who spend their hard earned money to come see them. Shame on you Madonna! Your fans made you rich and popular and this is how you have treated us. BOO!!!
I just read where she didn't start the first Las Vegas show until after midnight. A lot of people walked out, she was booed and they gave around 500 refunds. I am a hardcore Madonna fan and I really love her music and I have seen her 6 times over 5 tours. I don't think I will be giving her anymore of my money to see her. Her disdain for her fans is becoming clear to me and I think everyone else now. I believe the reason she is doing theaters for this tour is she knows she can't sell out arenas anymore because she has alienated her casual fans by not performing the hits that brought her to where she is. Now she is alienating her hardcore fan base by her lack of professionalism on this tour. Her extremely late start times and the few old songs that she is doing on this tour are the same songs she does every time that I myself as a hardcore fan are getting really tired of hearing on tour. I feel she may have totally killed her touring career in the future with her behavior on this Madame x tour. Even I have had enough. I will continue to buy her music but I doubt I will ever see her in concert again, and I am extremely sad to say that.
it was a terrible show last night, many people left the venue before half way through the show, incuding people on the front row... bad choice of setlist... plus she looks and says she's tired all the time... waste of money and time

Re: Automobile Insurance Queries? Ask me
I am trying to renew the insurance for my Scorpio which is 7 yrs old now. When I try online for quote, it varies widely from 9500 to 12000 with different IDV value. Should I renew with higher IDV?

Re: Automobile Insurance Queries? Ask me
I just renewed my Punto's Insurance(for its 6th year) with HDFC ergo, and below are some of my observations.
- Opted for Zero dep, as sometimes even a minor bump can run into thirty thousand grands and the difference in premium was just around Rs. 1500.
- Didn't opt for consumable cover, Engine protector, RSA, etc. Reason - HDFC didn't offer one and Tata AIG had a premium of Rs. 1800(along with lower IDV with difference of around 50000) for all these which I felt was not worth it. Also, a few pages back in this thread, a Skoda Yeti which ran into an accidental repair of Rs 3,20,000, had consumables amount for only Rs. 18,000.
- Tried Policy Bazaar and Cover Fox, but after the whole ordeal realized that it is better to go to popular players' portals, register there and talk with their agents. I got a good deal this way, better than what Policy Bazaar and Cover Fox had to offer.
And now for some myth and facts - IDV is important, but a lot of companies give you high IDVs to keep the premiums high. If your car is older(say more than 5 years), you can go easy on IDVs and keep your premium in check.
- Buying an insurance is striking a balance between known entities(your driving ability, usage, etc,) and unknown entities(flood, a beginner cab driver running into your car, etc). If you have been a good driver, you can always cut down on the Add-ons like I did.
- But for expensive cars, every add-on is advisable.
- Also remember - "Penny wise, pound foolish"

Re: Automobile Insurance Queries? Ask me
What are the rules for comprehensive insurance for a vintage or a classic car or bike?
Usually,the insurance providers tell us to opt for third party insurance and conveniently avoid comprehensive insurance for the older lot of vintage and classic cars and bikes.

Re: Automobile Insurance Queries? Ask me
The Insurance renewal for its 6th year of ownership happened a month ago.
The Insurance Company I ve been using is Bajaj Allianz.
Right from day 1, Ive opted for the Zero Dep Insurance.
This year, when it came to renewal they initially said that their rules forbade them from renewing the Zero Dep.
Upon my citing the fact that I ve been loyal to them these last 5 years coupled with the fact that my average running is only 600kms a month plus the fact that my track record is good, in terms of "No Claims", they immediately came around and ensured Zero Dep coverage for the 6th year too.
Let me see how the year goes and see what happens when it comes to 7th Year Zero Dep, next December!

Re: Automobile Insurance Queries? Ask me
Hello everyone, need a little guidance.
I am a new member of this forum so kindly pardon me if I make some errors.
I have Swift VDi 2012 model whose insurance is due in March, 2017. As most of us Maruti owners do, I continued with Maruti Insurance during all these years without any hassle. By god's grace, had no claims till now. Whatever IDV was offered, I accepted. But recently one of my relative's car was stolen and then the whole IDV thing came into play. He had Hyundai Xing which was almost 10 years old but he had taken insurance with IDV of Rs. 2 lac, whereas actual IDV must have been below Rs. 1 Lac. His claim is still pending, so whether the insurance company honors it or not is yet to be seen.
Also, I read in one other thread that in case of Total Loss or serious damage, 75% of IDV is seen to decide about repairing the car or not.
So I think that having a reasonable IDV while renewing the policy doesn't hurt provided we keep a balance between current market value of our cars and increase in premiums to be paid.
Now another thing to consider is Zero Depreciation coverage. I got to understand from other posts and normal conversations that companies generally don't offer this on cars older than 5 Years. But I was happy to see while checking on policybazaar that some companies are still offering it on my now 5 years old car. But when I checked on individual insurance providers' website, the option to opt for zero dep was not available on my car. Anybody has any idea why this discrepancy? Is policybazaar getting better deals from the companies than what they offer generally?
Now I have made some comparisons and shortlisted the following options-
1. Maruti Insurance- IDV 269200, no zero dep. Premium- 5924/-
2. Maruti insurance- IDV 297000, no zero dep. Premium- 6245/-
3. Royal Sundaram- IDV 367500 (default value from their website), no zero dep. Premium- 6694/-
4. HDFC Ergo (through policybazaar)- IDV 297000, zero dep. Premium- 9529/-
5. TATA AIG(through policybazaar)- IDV 297000, zero dep and some other add ons. Premium- 11638/- Without these other addons but with zero dep- Premium would be around 11100/-
I think above options cover all my confusions, so tell which one should I opt for? I have a little tilt towards zero dep. Will it not be a value for money option as FAQs on some websites tell that for vehicles older that 5 years, its not advisable. I will be shelling out around 3500/- for the zero dep add on only.

New India Assurance is having a special scheme for CAs among others, where they are offering flat 65% NCB on all private car insurances. It drastically brings down the insurance amount. Planning to avail of this scheme of theirs.

Re: Automobile Insurance Queries? Ask me
Dear all,
Require some inputs so that I can finalize the insurance. I have booked the Kwid 1.0L and showroom have the insurance (0 dep) amount mentioned as 19292. This I understand is on the higher side.
I checked at the policybazar and coverforx, and HDFC ERGO is giving me Zero Dep at 10801 at both the sites. I communicated the same amount to the dealership and they have asked me to provide the quotation and they have assured matching the same amount and features. Now how to get a quote from the HDFC ERGO? Is there any process to be followed for this? What are the tricky questions I should be aware of and how to answer those? All guidance are wholeheartedly accepted.

Re: Automobile Insurance Queries? Ask me
Why do you have to involve the showroom? Get it directly from HDFC ERGO.

Re: Automobile Insurance Queries? Ask me
What's the difference between taking insurance from the car showroom and from taking it from outside? What are also the advantages and disadvantages of taking an insurance policy from outside as opposed to one from the car showroom? It's said the car showroom makes bigger margins from insurance policies than from selling cars: is it true?

Commissioning Opportunities – Area Arts Hub Convenors x 4 (Dumfries and Galloway)
(£24,000 per contract lasting 21 months - starting January 2014)
2. Area Arts Hub Convenor Nithsdale
3. Area Arts Hub Convenor The Stewartry
4. Area Arts Hub Convenor Wigtownshire
Dumfries and Galloway Council and the Dumfries and Galloway Chamber of Arts are delighted to announce four commissioning opportunities in Dumfries and Galloway for the role of Area Arts Hub Convenor.
The role of Area Arts Hub Convenor is one of the key 'connectors' within the new structure that will support and develop the arts in Dumfries and Galloway into 2015. The role convenes and chairs gatherings of artists and interested individuals at area level, maintains a database of local artists and interested individuals on behalf of the Chamber of Arts and supports local and area-wide projects. The Area Arts Hub Convenors will also help ensure that communication flows smoothly between the arts sector, audiences and key organisations such as Dumfries and Galloway Council and Creative Scotland.
|See Area Hub Convenors (AHC) bottom left and follow up through diagram
There are four Area Arts Hub Convenor commissions available, one for each of the following areas within Dumfries and Galloway: Annandale and Eskdale; Nithsdale; The Stewartry and Wigtownshire. The commissions will be overseen by a Regional Arts Convenor (also a commissioned role) who reports to and facilitates the Dumfries and Galloway Chamber of Arts.
The commissioning process will be managed though the Public Contracts Scotland (PCS) web portal. To receive the brief you must be registered as a supplier on this website, and must either be self-employed or registered as a company.
The brief will be released to selected registered suppliers via the PCS website from Monday 4 November 2013. The deadline for return of submissions will be 12 noon on Friday 22 November. Interviews for shortlisted suppliers will take place on Friday 6 December in Dumfries.
Note from The Commonty (not 'official') Don't be mislead by the reference to 'Hubs' in the job title of these commissions.....those who have been following the development of the new arts-led structure for the region will be familiar now with the idea that these Convenor roles effective replace the Hubs as formal organisations.The way we understand it, it will be the job of each Area Convenor to coordinate, inform, connect, advocate for, represent the creative sector in their area at regional level ie to support creative practitioners/venues/orgs to access and use the regional structure for their own development and the overall development of the sector in D&G. How they choose to do this will be largely up to them based on their knowledge and understanding of their area - they may choose to hold regular open meetings as per the former Hub model - or they might think another way of connecting with people locally is more effective.

They look quite good. Congratulations!ReplyDelete
Thanks! They turned out pretty well, but I think the pink might be a little bright. I may try to make it darker, or maybe just duller. Maybe I'll paint the pink before I do the wash next time and see how that turns out.ReplyDelete
I'm not a huge fan of the pink, but other than that I really like them. Turned out sweet. Except the bases... that's a hellagreen base. :)ReplyDelete
I say go with the backpacks. Their renegades and probably don't have a great supply line so they need to bring all they need. Besides where else would they keep their trophies of severed fingers and heads?ReplyDelete

Bovis Homes Rebrand
Reviving an icon in the housing sector
Logically and strategically structure the brands within your organisation
Many organisations have a growing portfolio of sub-brands as a result of continued growth of products and services over time or mergers and acquisitions. It's a mark of success, but too often, organisations find that the management of the brand identities leads to inconsistency and ends up confusing consumers in relation to what an organisation actually offers and promises.
Brand architecture is the logical and strategic structure of a set of brand identities within your organisation. It is a system which organises a portfolio of brands in a way that audiences are able to understand the products and services offered in a family of brands.
A well-established brand architecture enables the successful development of new brands, brand extensions and sub-brands. It aids in decision-making, the smooth running of an organisation, the leveraging of brand equity and serves as a guide for brand identity development.
Regardless of your company size, businesses are able to reap the improvements in performance by reviewing and better organising their offerings in a logical and intuitive structure on a regular basis.

Rules for counting write-in votes vary from state to state
Deputy State Elections Administrator Jared DeMarinis said that almost 75,000 people have voted so far today. The ballot must be received by election officers by noon on Election Day, and just being postmarked by that date does not count. The Maryland State Board of Elections reports 80,283 people voted on Saturday; 123,020 people voted on Friday; and 122,880 voted on Thursday. Brown County had 5491 ballots cast in the first week of early voting.
Man shouts 'Jew-SA' at journalists covering Trump rally in Phoenix
While not the most creative demonstration available, the man made his opinion clear. Tapper, who is Jewish, also pressed Conway on the number of " anti-Semites , racists and misogynists who support the Trump candidacy". On Sunday, Tapper asked Conway why Donald Trump had refused to say he did not want the votes of that type of supporter. She later said it was just in response to protesters giving her the salute.
Voter pre-registration deadline approaching
It is recommended that ballots be mailed by Thursday, Nov. 3 to insure that they reach the county auditor timely. Mail-in ballots are going out at roughly the same pace, with 173,893 mail-in ballots sent out since October 19 across Kansas. Voters must return the replacement ballots, if not, votes on original votes will be copied onto good ballots. "We know a lot of Democrats are out there voting and we are excited about that".

Dog houses should be chosen based on several factors. And not all models can be applied. Sometimes, you have to constantly adjust to some of the circumstances related to your dog. Meanwhile, there are some people who choose not to make a home for their dog.
Given that there are many unique styles for their homes, you can design some interesting ideas.
One is to make a miniature of your own home. It is a style that is often chosen by most people. Obviously, this is an option that is very cute and attracts attention. Each dog has their home. And that's the best place for them to relax. In addition, a house would be better than you build an iron cage.
20 Photos Gallery of: Unique Style Of Dog Houses
Another option is a style with unique models. One example is a castle-style house. It is a very pretty for your beloved dog. This concept will also be highly enjoyable as a vehicle to play for your dog.
Well, the main consideration is where you will put the house of the dog. The only option is outside the home. That is if you have a yard with a wide size. But you can put it in your house if that's possible.

Conan slot game was launched by NetEnt and come with 6 reels and 4 rows. The game has 24 fixed paylines. A very volatile video slot full of features. There is a lot of option to explore playing this game that I would need pages to write about it. The best deal is to play the free demo version available above to test the game and start getting used with all features. You can play Conan slot game on mobile, tablet or computer. The game has a betting limit starting as low as $0.20 up to $200.00 per spin. This makes this video slot very interesting for high rollers who want to play high limit slots. The RTP is 96.28% and is classified as a medium variance slot, but after my experience, I think this is a very high volatile game. Wild Symbols I can start with the couple of Wild symbols that are present in this game. The Wilds are important and could be a step further for a lucrative spin in both base game or free spins round. Conan slot game has the Tower Wild and the Battle Wild. Tower Wild - The Tower Wild (Skull with blue lights) and can appear on reels 1 and 2, expanding to cover part or the whole reels 1 and 2. Battle Wild - Battle Wild (Skull with red lights) will land on reels 5 and 6 and it can expand up to 3 symbols linked in these reels The Wild symbols are also important when you get the Mystery symbol feature. Mystery symbol The Mystery symbol can appear on reels 3 and 4 in the base game. It can be a single symbol or stacked symbols. The mystery symbol can transform into any symbol, except the Scatter and Wilds. When you get the reels 3 and 4 covered by the mystery symbol you will get the Mystery Multiplier triggered that can multiply your current winnings by anything between 3 and 7. If you get the Mystery Symbol stacked on reels 3 and 4 with one or more Tower Wild or Battle Wild you will have the feature Thoth-Amon triggered. Then 3 to 6 symbols will be added randomly on any position of the reels 2, 3, 4, and 5 that does not include a Scatter, Wild or Mystery Symbol. Twin Spin During the base game and free spins, you can get the Twin Spin feature activated randomly. It will link two reels and match the symbols on it. It can happen with more reels and increase your winning possibilities. During the free spins, it can be expanded up to 6 reels, covering the entire gameplay area with the feature. Free Spins Three of more scatters anywhere on the reels will trigger the free spins round. You can get up to 50 free spins on Conan Slot. 3 scatters = 10 free spins; 4 scatters = 15 free spins; 5 scatters = 25 free spins; and 6 scatters = 50 free spins. Then you need to choose from three different free spins options: City of Thieves - Linked reels feature is activated and Tower Wilds can expand up or down to cover the reels entirely of part of it; This option is set as Low/Medium variance; Temple of the Serpent - Mystery symbol and stacked Mystery symbol is active on all reels. When you get a Mystery symbol covering the whole reel, you will get a win multiplier. 5 to 9 Mystery symbols triggers Thoth-Amon feature which adds 3 to 6 mystery symbols on the reels. This option is set as Medium/High variance; Walls of Tarantia - You will have Battle Wilds that can expand up to 3 linked positions and the linked reels feature; This option is set as Low/Medium variance; Gameplay Conan slot game by NetEnt is a great game. The game is big in all ways. You have a lot of features and sometimes it is difficult to know what is happening. Also, in the free spins round, you must choose your option carefully. You can read above the volatility and features of each free spins option. This is a kind of game you will need a manual to play. The slot machines of the past have nothing to do with these modern and complex games. Conan slot game has 6 reels and 4 rows and 8 symbols which gives you a million possibilities of combinations. The "extra" 1 reel and 1 row make any winning combination very difficult. I do not have an idea on how the symbols are distributed per each reel, though. On my 10 minutes of gameplay on Conan slot game, I found the game very volatile. The graphics and sounds are very well produced. The playability is very good. Again, try to read a little bit about the game features before playing with real cash.

About three months ago we've started weekly lessons in our company related to sound engineering and sound producing. I was explaining to interested people some details of sound engineering and sound producing. Totally we got eight lessons, each about 3 hours of duration. There was theory and basic practice that explained such themes like:
- overview of studio gear and studio path
- recording methods with microphones
- montage
- frequency-domain processing (equalization)

The main problem that it's all in russian language and has to be at least translated with subtitles. Also, each lessons is about 3 hours length, so probably they should be split into sub-lessons for about 20-30 minutes. Due to limitations of my hardware I couldn't perform screencast, so the practice part was recorded with the camera and looks like camrip.

The Chapel Hill Town Council heard ideas last Wednesday for the future of parking in downtown Chapel Hill. Town officials delivered a presentation outlining some of the ideas which aim to keep downtown accessible for vehicles and encourage economic development.
Community Safety Planner Meg McGurk, one of the staff members who presented, emphasized that the ideas are in an exploratory stage. She said this was the first time people brought suggestions to the council seeking feedback.
"This is all a process," she said. "So none of this is a done deal by any means."
Town officials determined that a portion of downtown is nearing capacity and its needs for parking are immediate.
Based on expected future demand, the Town of Chapel Hill staff called for approximately an additional 1,000 parking spaces.

Investing.com -- The U.K. economy shrank unexpectedly in November, amid signs the political uncertainty surrounding the early December general election weighed on economic growth. The news is likely to increase expectations of an interest rate cut at the Bank of England's next rate-setting meeting.
The monthly gross domestic product release showed output dropped by 0.3% in November, compared with expectations of a flat number. That cut the year-on-year growth figure to 0.6% from 1.0% in October. Industrial production also fell 1.2% on the month and manufacturing output dropped 1.7%.
Sterling has suffered as a result, trading below the $1.30 level against the dollar at $1.2974 by 04:55 ET (09:55 GMT), a drop of 0.7% on the day. The euro gained against the pound as well, with the cross trading at 0.8569, up 0.6%. By contrast, theFTSE 100 stock index outperformed its major European rivals, gaining 0.6% to 7,635, as many of the key index components generate the majority of their income from abroad and thus benefit from a weaker currency.
The December general election weighed heavily on business confidence as it raised the risk of various radical outcomes, each of them damaging in their own way. The conclusive victory of Boris Johnson's Conservatives has at least lifted some of the uncertainty regarding Brexit, and ended the threat of a radical left-wing government.
Now attention will turn to the next Bank of England rate-setting meeting at the end of this month given comments by a number of Monetary Policy Committee members last week over the likelihood of rate cuts. Indeed, over the weekend, MPC member Gertjan Vlieghe signalled in an interview with the Financial Times published at the weekend that he would also back a rate cut barring "an imminent and significant improvement in the U.K. data."

Stone age mobile phone tech in AustraliaJuly 30th, 2007 . by Matt
Stories like this really put things into perspective when it comes to technology and how far behind Australia is. The article says that SMS messages will probably disappear by 2012. SMS messages in Japan were already obsolete in the year 2000 in Japan, completely replaced by email on the mobile phone. I was using it so I know. By 2012 Australia will also have this technology widely available, some 12 years after it was widespread in Japan.
The days of SMS are numbered now that mobile email access is becoming a commodity, research firm Gartner says.
Long the preserve of businessmen in power suits, mobile email is about to hit the masses with one in five email users accessing their accounts wirelessly by 2010, according to Gartner.
Monica Blasso, the firm's research vice-president, said mobile email had moved beyond the BlackBerry and was increasingly a feature of even low-cost mobile phones, driving consumer adoption.
"By 2012, wireless email products will be fully inter-operable, commoditised and have standard features," she said. "They will be shipping in larger volumes at greatly reduced prices."
Today there are less than 20 million wireless email users worldwide, but this will grow to 350 million, or 20 per cent of all email accounts, by 2010, she said.
There is not any really any good reason the this, except that we Australians have a habit of accepting second best, and paying more for it than most any other country, from mobile phones to internet.

Yep, I was an awkward homeschooler growing up.
I did all 12 years of school at home and probably 80% of my college classes online. I always wanted to go to school when I was a kid, but looking back on it, I'm thankful I didn't.
Where you go to school seems to be what makes up most of your identity as a kid, or at least that's how it seemed to me growing up. I can't tell you how many times I was asked where I went to school.
When I was around kids who went to public school, I felt like an outsider. The fact that I'm an introvert didn't help me any in regards to socializing. I may have had fewer friends growing up, but I'm sure I avoided a lot of unnecessary peer pressure as a result.
My "school" consisted of me, my older brother, and younger sister. My mom stayed home with us and taught using various curriculums. A typical day would start after sleeping in until we felt like getting up and then my brother would usually drag me outside to play until we were called in to begin school.
My brother and I knew we'd have to go in eventually, but we started each day outside, hoping our mom would forget we existed so we could play all day. After my mom's patience was tested and her vocal cords had gotten a good amount of exercise, we would finally give in and head to the house. Sorry, mom!
When we finally started our school work, we typically finished within 4-5 hours. It takes a lot less time to get through the school day when you don't have all the extra stuff involved at a public school.
Thinking back on my childhood, I realized being homeschooled may have had a big part in making me suitable for early retirement.
Fearing Early Retirement
Hanging around the FIRE community, I see the topic of early retirement come up a lot. One of the biggest reasons I see people resist the idea of retiring early is that they don't want to sit on a beach for the rest of their lives.
I don't know who told all these people that they're sentenced to mandatory beach time the minute they quit their jobs, but it's a very narrow viewpoint.
The only logical explanation I can come up with for people resisting the idea of financial independence is fear. They might not say it or even realize it, but fear has to be the most common reason for staying in a job even though you don't need to work for money anymore.
Fear that you'll get bored without work. Fear that your money won't last, or that you'll stop contributing to the world… Fear…
I'm not quite sure why I don't share this fear. I've always thought the idea of retiring early sounded really cool. I'm also not a doctor and don't think anyone's life is depending on my job being done, so that might have something to do with it.
I get that some people are contributing a lot to the world through their career and that's great if you never want to quit your job. I just feel like I'll easily contribute to the world just as much as I do in my career once I'm retired. In fact, I see myself contributing more than I do now.
Being homeschooled had a part in making me suitable for early retirement and here are 4 reasons why.
Being homeschooled Makes You an Outsider
If you want to make a kid feel different from others, homeschool them. I had some close friends at church but had a fraction of the social interaction I would've had at public school.
Any time I was around kids I didn't know, they asked me where I went to school. I guess kids ask that question because they might know someone who goes to the same school as you and make a connection. Well, that never happened with me, except on a very rare occasion that I would meet someone else who was homeschooled.
Being seen as different didn't really affect me negatively looking back on things. I might have wished I could be seen as normal, but the sooner you can become comfortable being yourself in life, the better.
Being an outsider when I was a kid is going to help me when I'm 40 something and don't need to work a normal job. Unless we get a lot of people on board with FIRE (which would be really cool), retiring early is going to stay a fringe thing.
I also see there being similarities to the things I'll hear when I'm retired. Back in my school days, every time I met someone new, they always said they wished they could be homeschooled so they could chill in their pajamas all day. I'm sure early retirees frequently get comments about how nice it must be.
Homeschooling Helps Develop Creativity
When you spend all day at your house and don't have the mental distractions of hundreds of other kids, you have to start relying heavily on your imagination to not get bored.
We grew up on 7 acres and spent most of our time outside. Sometimes we entertained ourselves in not-so-safe ways. One time, my brother and I thought it would be fun to fill two-liter bottles up with gas and throw them on a fire. It was a pretty awesome experience because it was dark and the bottles would get small holes in them and shoot flames a good 50 feet in the air. I'm amazed we didn't get hurt that night, but we made up for it on lots of other occasions.
I doubt I'll be throwing gas-filled 2 liters into fires when I'm retired, but having the imagination to keep me entertained will really come in handy. They say having a purpose in life is a good way to extend life-span and it takes imagination to develop purpose. If nothing else, maybe I'll still be writing this blog when I'm retired and that'll keep me from getting bored.
Being independent
Going to public school gets you in the routine of having to be somewhere 5 days out of the week. Once you're at school, you depend on teachers giving lectures, talking to your friends and developing your identity around the people of the school.
Being homeschooled eliminated a lot of structure I would have had in my life if I had gone to school. When I got my first real job at 17, I wasn't used to conforming to a corporate policy and acting in a way to please others. I've always been an easy-going person, so I don't have any issues getting along with bosses and coworkers, but I've always known I like doing things on my terms more than adhering to certain rules.
I've seen several stories of people getting to FIRE and quitting their jobs only to find they don't know what to do with their time. I've got plenty of time to make a plan for retirement life, but even if I woke up tomorrow with enough money in the bank to never work again, I don't feel like I would have an issue with finding something to do. There are too many people to help and too many problems to solve for a capable person to sit around bored.
Not having a schedule
Being homeschooled, we always had a general timeframe to do school work when I was a kid, but it wasn't perfectly structured like public school is. The 9-5 corporate life is completely arbitrary and unnecessary in today's world. Even though I work from home and do most of my work independently, I'm still trapped by the confines of a schedule.
When I'm retired, I see myself absolutely enjoying the freedom of doing everything when I want to. I realize that it will take some discipline to get things done in a timely manner, and I'm sure I'll have some sort of schedule. But for the most part, I think I'll do what I want when I want.
I never woke up to an alarm clock when I was a kid and I look forward to the day I turn my alarm off for good. Being abruptly woken isn't the natural way to start your day and I can't wait to wake up when my body says it's time to.
If I had to give a one-word answer for why being homeschooled will help me in early retirement, I'd have to say freedom.

Road resealing will be carried out along the Havelock North end of Havelock Rd over five days from August 28.
The work will mean that the road from Karenema Dr to just before the central village roundabout (Napier Rd and Havelock Rd) will be down to one lane for that week, with stop/go traffic management and detours in place.
The resealing will follow five days of work to redo water connections around the Porter Dr/Havelock Rd roundabout.
Businesses and residents in the immediate area are being directly advised of the two projects.
Hastings District Council staff and contractors have planned the projects in a way designed to have the least impact on businesses and residents.
The water work will be carried out mainly at night to minimise the impact of water shutdowns, while road resealing will be carried out during the day to minimise the effects of noise.

A New Year & a New Look!2
January 1, 2013 by Janna Roznos
But, same old me.
I have been thinking about what I want to accomplish this coming year. What changes I want to make and how I am going to accomplish all this. So although I have never been very good at making New Year's resolutions (nor keeping them if I did make them) I thought, why not try it this year. So my New Year "sewing" resolutions are as follows:
- Sew through my stash. As much of my stash as I can. If I am not going to sew the fabric I have, then I need to get rid of it. The Senior Center here where I live, takes donations of fabric for their quilt group and the doll making group. They may get a lot from me this coming year.
- Finish my PIGS. Projects-in-grocery-sacks. I have a few of those and I need to either finish them or toss them out.
- Sew with a plan. A SWAP. I have been reading other bloggers who have already set up their SWAP for 2013 – me? I have no idea; however, since my fabric stash has no plan it is a tiny bit difficult to sew with a plan that is if I am going to meet my #1 resolution. See my dilemma!
- Work more in the yard. This past year I have neglected my garden, so I need to spend more time outside (away from my sewing machine) and weed and tend to my roses. It will be good for me. Good for the plants and good for my dog.
- Clean out. Clean out. Clean out. I have already started this resolution; cleaning out cupboards/closets/drawers, etc. My plan (this was months ago) was once a week to drop a box off at the Goodwill and I was doing it, too. And, then the holidays hit and BAM! I tripped over the empty cardboard box and haven't cleaned out anything since.
Yes, I know 4 & 5 are not really sewing related, but I find that other activities (like gardening) really helps me focus on something other than sewing especially, when I am befuddled by some technique. I can concentrate on something else and then come back to sewing with a refreshed view point.
So there are my resolutions for the New Year. Nothing too momentous and all very doable and hopefully, by meeting these resolutions, I will: 1) improve my sewing skills, 2) have many more custom garments to wear, 3) have a lovely garden again and 4)have neat and tidy house.
Here's to 2013 and all that sews with it!

Do you love a good mystery? ARCHAEOLOGY NEWSFLASH NO. 528
Do you love a good mystery, ? The vast
Amazon forest still conceals many mysteries.
This report concerns man-made lights that never go out
– but just keep on burning, century after century.
As a matter of fact, I have written about this quite a
bit in the past – especially in Dead Men's Secrets
(http://www.beforeus.com )
Here was an astonishing rumor —but was it true?
On trek through the forbidding Matto Grosso region of
Brazil in 1925, Colonel P.H. Fawcett, D.S.O., was
challenged by native reports of mysterious cold lights
in some ruined cities of the jungle.
Not only that. There existed, it was claimed, a city
still living, inhabited, illuminated at night. Could
this really be? Might there be some still surviving
remnant of a long lost civilization, which was using
"forgotten" knowledge?
Fawcett came out averring he had glimpsed one of these
jungle cities. He reentered the region to further pursue
his passion, but this time disappeared without trace.
It is noteworthy that few have ever set foot in this
"terra prohibida" and returned.
A "lost world" indeed, it is a land infested with
enormous swamp creatures, wild beasts and wilder men.
This region is generally bounded by the Rio Xingu, the
Rio Tapajos and the Amazon.
In regard to the supposed jungle lights, I am somewhat
intrigued. The existence of devices which provided
lighting at night in ancient times cannot be questioned,
because so many classical writers describe them. I was
dumbfounded to discover this.
Until 1890, we possessed only candles, torches and oil
lamps, and it is easy to think that this was always the
However, we must now regard the past use of lighting
and electricity as a historical certainty.
In Antioch, Syria, in the 6th century, an ever-burning
lamp was found with an inscription indicating it had
been burning more than 500 years.
And in England, during the early Middle Ages, a third
century perpetual lamp was found that had burned for
a thousand years.
In Rome, when the sepulchre of Pallis was opened in
1401,the tomb was found to be illuminated by a perpetual
lamp which had been alight for more than 2,000 years.
Nothing could put it out, until, in an act of vandalism,
it was broken to pieces.
Back again in Syria, in the 11th century, Kedrenus, the
Byzantium historian, records having seen a perpetual
lamp at Edessa, which had been burning for 500 years.
A sealed mausoleum beside the Appian way near Rome was
opened in April 1485. It contained a sarcophagus
containing the body of a shapely and beautiful
patrician girl. At her feetstood a lighted lamp which
had been burning for 1,500 years!
The body was that of Cicero's daughter, Tullia. She
lay in a transparent, all-preserving fluid, the nature
of which was unknown.
When the preserver was removed, her lifelike form with
red lips and dark hair was seen by 20,000 people. The
lamp continued to burn for some time.
Many of these lighted lamps have been found in the
subterranean vaults of Memphis, Egypt, but after
exposure to air, the lights went out.
Well, what do you think about that? If you want to
know more about these strange lamps, the best I can
do is point you to a site where you can learn more
about the Dead Men's Secrets e-book. And after you
receive it, zero in on Chapter 25, "Ruins That Glow
in the Night".

We are sorry to hear of your difficulty conceiving, and of your difficulty with transfers and recent miscarriage.
Uterine bleeding will almost always result from an endometrial biopsy. Since this bleeding is caused by injury, the opinion of the posek of this site, Rav Yehuda Henkin, is that it does not render the woman niddah. The bleeding may go on for about a week, and for that time can be attributed to the procedure. Other authorities are less comfortable permitting bleeding that comes from the uterus, even if a clear source of injury is seen. Therefore, it would be best to ask a specific psak from your rabbi, if you have one.
For all procedures that enter the uterus, the size of the instrument that enters is also important. Instruments larger than a certain size render a woman niddah even if there is no bleeding. According to Rav Henkin, as long as the catheter used for an endometrial biopsy is less than 19mm in diameter (which would be expected), the instrument's entry into the uterus would not itself make you niddah.
We do recommend wearing colored underwear so as not to raise questions unnecessarily. For more information on minimizing questions, please see our site's articles "Stains" and "Toilet Paper".
We wish you a successful procedure.

Info Note: Pastoralist Areas Resilience Improvement through Market Expansion (PRIME) in Ethiopia: Mitigation co-benefits of livestock productivity
November 2016
Julie Nash et al.
This info note provides information on the Pastoralist Areas Resilience Improvement through Market Expansion (PRIME) project in Ethiopia. Included in the info note is information on low emissions development, the agricultural and environmental context of Ethiopia, agricultural practices that impact greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and carbon sequestration, a summary of projected GHG emissions and carbon sequestration co-benefits, GHG emissions intensity and methods for estimating emissions.
PRIME launched in 2012 with funding from the Feed the Future (FTF) initiative, and employed a market-based facilitation approach to build the resilience of pastoralists in seven zones in the Afar, Oromiya and Somali regions. Implemented by Mercy Corps, PRIME targeted 250,000 households as direct beneficiaries, including 50,000 that received direct activity support for animal husbandry practices.
The purpose of PRIME was to promote the viability and resilience of pastoralist communities by 1) improving the productivity and competitiveness of livestock; 2) enhancing the adaptive capacity of pastoralists to confront climate change; 3) strengthening alternative livelihoods to enable households to transition out of pastoralism; and 4) improving the nutritional status of targeted households through sustained and evidence-based interventions.

Article Discussion: Falcons stay grounded while crushing Rams
AIR FORCE ACADEMY — When it was time to talk Saturday afternoon, Air Force quarterback Tim Jefferson emphatically put his team's 49-27 rout of Colorado State in perspective after the 25th-ranked Falcons dismantled their intrastate rival.
If there was any concern the Falcons might still be reveling in last week's 14-6 win over Navy, Jefferson and a hard-driving Air Force offense di...

NO WAY!?!?!?!?! He is a great guy and incredible instructor, shooter, and friend. He will be missed. The shooting community really lost a major asset.
- July 21, 2018 at 11:36 PM
Hate to hear that. I think I knew both you guys back in the day. Always enjoyed listening to him on the radio.
- July 21, 2018 at 11:43 PM
Cliff will be missed. RIP
- July 22, 2018 at 7:42 AM
So sorry. Great smile and knowledge lost to us. Prayers for his family and friends.
- July 22, 2018 at 8:29 AM
Did not know him. Was he affiliated with a gun shop around here?
- July 22, 2018 at 9:03 AM
Very sad! Cliff was not just a get shooter but taught so many of us, and later as instructors so much more on how to properly carry a handgun for self defense, he always advocated running as the oldest self defense. Prays for his family.
- July 22, 2018 at 2:17 PM
The world and each person who knew Cliff are better for it...we lost a good guy in Cliff, RIP
- July 22, 2018 at 3:30 PM
Cliff was in Wisconsin for a training class. He was the best husband, dad and son I have ever known. You are right he will be missed by so many many people and organizations he was connected to. Pleas pray for his wife and two sons and his mother who are still in shock from this tragedy. Details are not complete yet.

Florida Evans, when told of James, her husband's, demise in Mississippi, uttered the line "Damn, Damn, DAMN" on Good Times back in the day. I thought that was where you were going, also. Even if not, still appropriate. Good guy lost to us all.

Nope. I'm still stuck on James finding the icebox full of beer.

Such a shame.
Really good fella. A very valuable member of the shooting world who stressed gun safety, proper training, and was proud #2A.
From the Condon's at Boondocks where Cliff once taught:
"Mark and I, along with the entire Boondocks family are saddened to hear the news of the passing of a friend and a former Boondocks staff member; Cliff Cargill. He was an asset to the gun community and will be forever missed by many. Our deepest sympathy goes out to his family and to those lives he has touched along the way.
Funeral Services for Cliff Cargill:
Lakewood Funeral Home
6011 Clinton Blvd
Jackson, MS 39209
Visitation will be Saturday, July 28th, 2018 from 9am to 11am.
Service will be at 11am and the burial will be immediately following.
Please message me if you have any questions."
Here's the FB post with some pics of the deceased.
RIP Cliff

It was always a delight to shoot with Cliff. A lot of folks know that he was a terrific instructor, a competitive shooter, and an articulate supporter of the rights of gun owners ... but he should also be remembered as a really fun, funny, and personable guy who took genuine and cheerful pleasure in spending time shooting with friends. He was one of a kind, and he will be missed.

Trollfest '09
Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and "Big Cat" Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).
Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.
Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".
In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The "Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless" booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word "jackass" was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.
In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.
Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.
Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!
This is definitely a Beaver production.
Note: Security provided by INS.
Trollfest '07
There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease. However, in the true spirit of Separate But Equal, Don Imus and someone from NE Jackson will also sit in the dunking booth for an equal amount of time. Tom Head will give a reading for two hours on why he can't figure out who the hell he is. Cliff Cargill will give lessons with his .80 caliber desert eagle, using Frank Melton photos as targets. Tackleberry will be on hand for an autograph session. KIM Waaaaaade will be passing out free titles and deeds to crackhouses formerly owned by The Wood Street Players.
If you get tired come relax at the Fox News Tent. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both will entitle you to free drinks.Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required, just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '07 is for EVERYONE!!!
This is definitely a Beaver production.

Within each of us lies an inherent craving to create, to put something beautiful in the world that was not there before. We have in the depths of our core a longing to leave a concrete mark on others through our work; we want to sing, dance, draw, write, bake, and discover as no one else ever has.
Within each of us lies an inherent craving to create, to put something beautiful in the world that was not there before.
This desire to create is both natural and sacred; as women made in the image and likeness of God—the true and ultimate Creator—we reflect His creative will and are invited to share in His creative work on earth through the individual gifts and talents He has endowed us with. How beautiful is that?
Yet, for those not working in creative fields (and sometimes even for those of us who do), our longing to create can sometimes feel overwhelming or seem out of reach. Perhaps we don't think of ourselves as artists (or even artistic), or perhaps we don't believe we have enough time to work on cultivating our inner Picassos or Mozarts.
Becoming more creative, however, doesn't require you to quit your job and start pursuing painting or music full-time; it's not an all-or-nothing proposition. Instead, a creative life is just as much an attitude as it is a practice, and is something that can be integrated into all aspects of our lives. In fact, it can be as simple as just approaching our tasks with a heightened spirit of imagination.
Take children, for example. Kids are the most creative, artistic people, and also have some of the absolute wildest imaginations. The two go hand in hand. As we grow up, most of us tend to lose some of that excited imagination as fewer and fewer things seem new and novel to us. But let us not forget that each morning brings a fresh start, each moment an unrepeatable experience. When we keep this in mind and start looking at our lives with renewed perspectives, we'll find inspiration and creative outlets all around us.
But let us not forget that each morning brings a fresh start, each moment an unrepeatable experience.
Such inspiration can be found in a sunset, a meaningful conversation, an unexpected gesture of kindness, the thrill of doing something new—the list goes on and on. As a writer, I keep a journal with me to record theses moments and thoughts. A photographer might keep a camera, or a painter a sketchpad. I know one woman whose love of music inspires her to, in essence, "translate" songs into (delicious) meals for others. Another friend has an incredible talent for transforming her love of color into the most unique flower arrangements.
No matter our inspirations, or how we each choose to capture or interpret them, there are endless opportunities for us to unleash our inner artist—regardless of wealth, status, education, or abilities. After all, it's not about making something perfect to be admired in a museum, but about appreciating the divine gifts around us and expressing our God-given talents in even the most "normal" of tasks, starting from how we make our morning breakfast to how we fall asleep.
As writer G.K. Chesterton's words remind us, "At the back of our brains is a blaze of astonishment at our own existence. The object of the artistic and spiritual life is to dig for this sunrise of wonder."
What creative gifts have you been blessed with? How do you use them in everyday life?
Enjoyed it? Share it!

Amy, such a right on time post. I do believe that we're designed to create, and have that core desire. Love the post, especially the point that "each morning brings a fresh start, each moment an unrepeatable experience." So good.Reply

Proverbs 4:23 Amplified Bible (AMP)
Watch over your heart with all diligence,
For from it flow the springs of life.
It is every christian's duty to watch how they walk, how they talk, how they take decisions.
In other words, there's no way one can diligently guard a heart that doesn't have Jesus, give your heart to the saviour.
Then you won't just talk, some things are just to be kept to ourselves, lest they destroy the church, brethren or families.
Your heart is your responsibility.

MPA Ambassador Program:
Collaborative members are engaging boat captains and docents in an ambassador program targeting visitors to Point Reyes and the Farallon Islands. Working with these ambassadors, the collaborative has developed a map-based brochure that will be used as an outreach tool, with the goal of increasing awareness and compliance of local marine protected areas.
Golden Gate MPAs Brochure
With input from the fishing and boating community, the Collaborative developed a waterproof brochure for San Francisco and Bay Area residents to learn more about the MPAs in their area.
Online MPA Ambassador Training
The Golden Gate Collaborative created an online training course for interested users to become MPA Ambassadors. The course includes information on why MPAs are important, how they work and where they are located. The training is applicable statewide and can be offered to docents, interpreters, ocean business employees, students, and the general public. Those that complete the training will receive a certificate of completion and be recognized as Certified MPA Ambassadors.
Mini-ROV Expeditions
Marine Protected Area (MPA) Collaborative Members statewide are field-testing Trident mini-ROVs (remotely operated vehicles or underwater drones) in collaboration with SoFar Ocean, National Geographic and the S.E.E. Initiative. More information about Collaborative expeditions focusing on MPA outreach, compliance, and citizen science projects can be found on our Resources page.
