Does 'The Bachelorette' Air On Memorial Day? True Love Doesn't Have Off Days
The best and worst thing about the way The Bachelorette airs is that it lasts just 12 weeks, giving fans almost an entire summer of episodes but for some, nowhere near enough to satisfy them. But since the spring and summer aren't without holidays, how does that work for the show? More importantly, does The Bachelorette air on Memorial Day?
True love can't just take a day off and even though the show doesn't air live episodes, The Bachelorette will definitely still be on for Memorial Day. So long after you've made the backyard barbecue rounds and soaked up that summer sun, you can still watch a new episode of The Bachelorette at the end of the day. And really, now isn't the time to have a holiday interrupt Rachel's journey, so it all works out.
Rachel will no doubt be choosing men for her first one-on-one date and no one wants to miss the competitive side come out of Lucas, a.k.a. The "Whaboom" guy, Bryan, or Adam and his miniature puppet of the same name, who speaks French and also loves Rachel. In other words, The Bachelorette will air on Memorial Day because what else are Bachelor Nation fans going to do in the evening? Every Monday is a two-hour affair, which has become a type of ritual for most fans, so skipping one week would feel just wrong.
Like any other week during Bachelorette season (yes, we can call it that now), The Bachelorette will air on Mondays at 8 p.m. ET on ABC and run for the usual two hours of awkward moments, almost fights, and at the end of it all, the eliminations. The trailer for Season 13 of The Bachelorette showed some drama with an ex, or even current, girlfriend of someone, a potential fight and subsequent injury, and lots of emotion from Rachel and the guys too.
The first cocktail night is always pretty tame, so Week 2 is going to be where things start to get kind of real. Even if it is in the form of some group date that looks more like a physical competition.
This season of The Bachelorette has already been a gift to fans, who not only get to watch a real and down-to-earth woman find love, but a group of diverse men vie for her attention. And in the end, that's honestly the greatest gift of all.

U.S. Embassy ask Pakistan to release diplomat
Pakistani police escort U.S. diplomat Raymond Davis to a courthouse.The diplomat is being "unlawfully detained," the embassy saysTwo boys in a motorcycle tried to rob the man, police sayEmbassy: The man "acted in self-defense"Their families have filed a complaint against him with Lahore police
Islamabad, Pakistan (CNN) — The U.S. Embassy in Pakistan is calling for the immediate release of a consular employee who allegedly shot to death two Pakistanis as they tried to rob him.
The unnamed diplomat — who has a U.S. diplomatic passport — is being "unlawfully detained" by authorities in the city of Lahore.
The American was driving in a busy area known as Kartaba Chawk on Thursday when two boys on a motorcycle tried to rob him, said police official Faisal Rana. The American shot both boys, he said.
Rana identified the American as Raymond Davis, but the embassy does not identify him in its statement.
"The diplomat acted in self-defense when confronted by two armed men on motorcycles," the embassy said. "The diplomat had every reason to believe that the armed men meant him bodily harm."
The two men, who have a criminal history, had robbed a Pakistani citizen at gunpoint in the same area minutes earlier, the embassy said.
The diplomat's arrest violates the Vienna Convention, to which Pakistan is a signatory, the embassy said.
After the shooting, the boys' families filed a complaint against the consular employee, accusing him of two murders, a police spokesman said.Nayab Haider said the complaint, called a "first information report," prompts an official investigation by police, who will submit their findings to a court. The court then will decide on what, if any, charges will be filed.
CNN's Reza Sayah contributed to this report.

SYDNEY • China shrugged off badminton's biggest Olympic scandal to sweep all five titles in London four years ago, but the Asian superpowers are trying to keep a lid on expectations of another bumper gold haul at August's Rio de Janeiro Games.
The peerless team who set up the "Great Haul of China" in 2012 will line up almost unchanged in the Brazilian city, anchored by men's singles great Lin Dan and defending women's champion Li Xuerui.
So strong were the Chinese in 2012 that they swept the titles without their reigning women's doubles world champions Wang Xiaoli and Yu Yang, who were among four pairs disqualified for deliberately losing pool matches to secure more favourable draws in the knockout rounds.
In Rio, all of China's singles and doubles contenders are expected to vie for podium places, but the days of gold-medal deciders fought exclusively by shuttlers in identical red shirts may be gone for good.
World badminton has moved the Olympic goal posts by limiting nations to two singles entrants in each event, down from the three in London and previous Games.
The move was intended to increase competition, but naturally prompted grumblings in China of a containment strategy.
With the new limits, fewer team-mates means more pressure on the remaining Chinese to perform for a nation which has become used to gold flowing from the badminton arena.
"Actually, I don't believe it's discrimination against China, but the rule came out and we just accept it," Li said yesterday.
She upset compatriot Wang Yihan for the gold in London and returns to Rio with the latter again among her biggest threats.
But China's world No. 6 Wang Shixian, who competed in London and is the reigning Asian champion, misses out.
"Maybe (we feel) it's a pity that there are three of us but we can only enter two," said Li.
In the last four years, other nations have been closing the gap, and the tournament will open in Brazil without Chinese players dominating the world rankings in every event.
Li is currently ranked fourth behind Spanish world No. 1 Carolina Marin, second-ranked Thai sensation Ratchanok Intanon and Wang Yihan.
There is little prospect of a shake-up to the rankings at the season-ending Australian Badminton Open in Sydney this week.
After beating Australia's Jennifer Tam 21-12, 21-5 in her opening match at the Sydney Olympic Park Sports Centre yesterday, the 25-year-old Li forecast a much tougher run for China in Rio.
"Yes, London was London, now it's a new Olympic cycle," she said. "The whole world's level has improved, so I think it will be difficult for all countries. So, we just need to worry about our own game.
"Everyone's got a chance. It can't be said that there are just a few contenders. It's possible for any player to go all the way."
The whole world's level has improved... Everyone's got a chance. It can't be said that there are just a few contenders. It's possible for any player to go all the way.
LI XUERUI, Olympic champion, on the Chinese team's chances in Rio.
Top teams, including European powerhouses and newly crowned Thomas Cup holders Denmark, have employed Chinese coaching consultants, while former world champion Ratchanok has credited her current mentor Xie Zhuhua for much of her success.
Along with Spaniard Marin, Ratchanok has repeatedly pricked China's aura of invincibility at high-profile tournaments in recent years and has no fear of the Chinese.
"When I was young, if I beat the Chinese players, I would feel very happy, very proud of myself," she said yesterday. "But now there are many countries like Japan, India, Korea.
"Many young players (are) coming up, so I have to look at not only the Chinese (but) who is getting better."

Discussing plants in two languages can be a confusing affair. Trevor Bridge explains the meaning of botanical names, the one way to ensure we are all speaking the same language
Flaming June is upon us, when we look forward to exquisite, warm, sunny days throughout France. With the longest day of the year on the 21 June, we have many daylight hours to enjoy the garden.
Once the risk of frost is past, tomatoes, peppers, aubergines, courgettes and cucumbers can be planted outdoors. This is usually after mid-May, but there is still time if you haven't done so yet. As part of our crop rotation we plant these together – it is known as our 'ratatouille bed'. We also grow chillies here, ensuring a cloche is placed over them and they are kept well watered as they need to make the best of the growing season. We freeze chillies whole ensuring a year-round supply. Salad greens, spinach, peas, French beans, carrots, radishes and beetroot can all be sown and, if you have not already done so, plant melons, pumpkins and squashes for harvesting later. We particularly enjoy butternut squash which store well over winter. To add colour indoors as well as outdoors, annual and biennial flowers can be sown now.
By July there is an abundance of fresh produce; crisp salad leaves, beetroot, spring onions, sweet tasting peas, beans, spinach and young courgettes. Continue sowing these in succession for continual cropping throughout the summer.
Pinch outside shoots of 'indeterminate' variety tomatoes to direct energy into fruit rather than leaves. Side shoots grow between the main stem and a leaf - make sure you are not pinching off the fruiting shoot! Indeterminate varieties form flowers along the sides of shoots and continue to produce fruit until killed by frost. Bush or 'determinate' varieties do not need pruning as they stop shoot production once flowers form on the ends and crop all at once. They are popular with commercial growers.
It's important to make sure that plants do not get dry. To reduce wasting water through evaporation, water in the morning and late afternoon when it is cooler. Avoid wetting the leaves to prevent leaf scorch and soak thoroughly, don't just splash. While the water is out, keep your bird baths topped up.
Ensure 'ratatouille bed' plants are tied to their supports. Check tall border plants to see if they need canes - our hollyhocks always need to be helped in this way. Tie in new shoots of clematis and other climbers. And, of course, weed regularly.
Many plants are known by different names in different countries and even vary from place to place in the same country. Sometimes the same common name can even refer to quite different plants, and while common names are easier to remember, they cause confusion. For instance, what is known in the UK as the Cowslip is called the Coucou here in France. However, its botanical name Primula veris is recognised throughout the world. True roses have the botanical name Rosa, however many plants have rose in their common name but are not true roses. For example: Christmas rose, cotton rose, guelder rose, Lenten rose, rock rose, rose of Sharon, and wood rose. In the UK the white water lily has fifteen common names, and if you include its French, Dutch and German names it has over 240 names. It is therefore extremely useful to have a way of correctly identifying plants, to be able to go to a garden centre in France, in the UK, or indeed anywhere else in the world, and ask for a plant by the same name. This is where the botanical name becomes important.
All plants, natural and cultivated, have botanical names based on an internationally recognised system developed by Carl Linnaeus, an 18th century Swedish botanist, zoologist and physician. This system, known as binomial nomenclature, provides a world-wide way to refer to any plant using the same name. Botanical names, often referred to as scientific names, are the only way to accurately identify plants and can be understood anywhere in the world.
Botanical names can seem baffling or a little daunting. They are frequently referred to as 'Latin names' which can be intimidating, creating the impression that a good knowledge of Latin is essential. This is incorrect though. Whilst Latin (and ancient Greek) words are often used in plant names, they are not specifically Latin. They should be referred to as botanical names, not Latin names. There is nothing mysterious about them and, as well as providing a unique name for a plant, the botanical name can often tell you where it originated, who discovered it, its colour, its shape and much more.
It is a good ruse to learn the botanical names of a few familiar plants so that you can impress people with your knowledge! You will know quite a number already as many plants are commonly known by their true botanical name. These include Acacia, Acanthus, Alyssum, Anemone, Begonia, Chrysanthemum, Clematis, Cotoneaster, Cyclamen, Delphinium, Euphorbia, Forsythia, Fuchsia, Geranium, Gypsophila, Hebe, Heuchera, Hibiscus, Hosta, Hydrangea, Nigella, Primula, Rhododendron, Verbascum, Veronica and many more.
The botanical name and the English and French common names are exactly the same for quite a number of familiar plants. These include Cosmos, Crocus, Dahlia, Geum, Iris, Phlox, Rhododendron, Sedum, Yucca and Zinnia.
The common name of Campanula is bellflower, but it is probably just as well known by its botanical name. The same can be said for plants such as Buddleia (butterfly bush), Acanthus (bear's breeches), Pyracantha (Firethorn) and Nepeta (Catmint).
Others such as Gentiana, Laurus, Lavandula, Lupinus, Rosa, Rosmarinus, Scabiosa and Viola have common names that are easily worked out from their botanical names.
The first name of a plant is the 'genus'; the second name is the 'species'. Some plants have third names to denote 'cultivars'.
Genus, the first part of the name, refers to a group of plants that share certain biological characteristics and comes from mythology, literature or refers to something the plant resembles. Daphne and Andromeda are from Greek mythology. Buddleia are named after botanist Rev. Adam Buddle, Deutzia after Dutch plant hunter J Deutz and Fuchsia after German botanist Leonard Fuchs. Genus is italicised and starts with a capital letter.
Vinca is the periwinkle genus.
Species, the second part of the name, can refer to the plant's place of origin, habitat, discoverer, or characteristics. Species are classified by flower analysis for flowering plants and cone or seed analysis for conifers and other non-flowering plants. This is why plants with somewhat different foliage or form are often classified as the same species. Species is italicised and usually starts with a lower-case letter.
Vinca minor is the lesser periwinkle species. Vinca major is the greater periwinkle species.
Cultivar is a sub-division of a species or a variety and is a plant selected for desirable characteristics such as variegation or different forms of growth, foliage or flower. Most cultivars are the result of human intervention, although some are selected from the wild. Cultivar is written in single quotes, with a capital letter, and not italicised.
Vinca major 'Variegata' is a cultivar of the greater periwinkle species with variegated leaves.

text: Referring to their sound as "Munich bass," German duo Schlachthofbronx (Bronx slaughterhouse) make club tracks influenced by kuduro, dancehall, electro-house, Baltimore club, brass bands, baile funk, and virtually any other highly energetic form of music. The group was founded in 2008 by three DJs named Bene (Graf von Stierenfroed), Jakob (DJ-King Augenring), and Christoph (Bass-King T). The self-titled debut Schlachthofbronx arrived on Disko B in 2009, and its exuberant mix of numerous styles earned critical acclaim. The group began touring across the world, eventually becoming a duo when Christoph left in 2010. During that year, Schlachthofbronx's Ayoba EP was released by baile funk label Man Recordings, and the duo opened for M.I.A. on her European tour. Diplo's Mad Decent label inevitably snatched the duo up, issuing Nasty Bass and Chambacu Remixes in 2011, while Carimbo (Man Recordings) and Mudders (Mixpak) appeared during the same year. Schlachthofbronx returned to Disko B with their second full-length, Dirty Dancing, which arrived in 2012, with guests including dancehall MCs Warrior Queen and Natalie Storm as well as Detroit ghettotech pioneer DJ Assault. Rave & Romance followed in 2014, featuring the Brazilian group Bonde do Rolê and the late New Orleans bounce rapper Nicky Da B, as well as the returning Warrior Queen. The duo started a label, also called Rave & Romance, and released a series of Haul & Pull Up EPs, leading up to a 2017 full-length of the same name. Ranging from slower, dubbier tracks to more uptempo ones influenced by footwork, the album featured guest appearances by Gonjasufi, Otto Von Schirach, and Riko Dan. ~ Paul Simpson

About Alignment Saginaw
In 1996 the Saginaw County Human Services Collaborative Body (SCHSCB) was established to act as the planning and decision making body to coordinate human services in Saginaw County. The mission of the SCHSCB was to work toward a collaborative service delivery system, which fostered strong, safe families and communities and was cost effective. In 2009 the collaboration in Saginaw County evolved to include additional critical community dimensions and the related community leadership in a wider view of the community and its needs. An "enhanced community collaborative" is a national trend that is being recognized across the country. To enhance the dynamics of a community collaborative requires data collection and management that establishes benchmarks and measurable indicators of change to help guide progress and planning for our community. A small group of community leaders had already identified the need to expand the focus of the SCHSCB, and referred to themselves as Alignment Saginaw. After much deliberation, it was decided that it would be necessary to merge SCHSCB with Alignment Saginaw. The purpose of Alignment Saginaw is to serve as the community collaborative for Saginaw County to improve the capacity for work by Alignment Saginaw members. To this end the mission of Alignment Saginaw is to prepare and mobilize around opportunities that impact key areas affecting Saginaw County's quality of life. It was also decided and approved by the Alignment Saginaw body that the Saginaw Community Foundation would be the fiduciary to manage the operations of the group and to identify and oversee the leadership behind the program.
Opportunities will be data driven and action oriented.
The function of Alignment Saginaw is:

Every year, approximately 20,000 young people, like Ary, age out of the child welfare system. Turning 18, she was proud to have achieved high school graduation; completed the broadcast and video production course at Frances Tuttle Technical Center; and enrolled at Oklahoma State University to major in entrepreneurship. But obstacles began to hit fast and led Ary to being connected to one of our LifeSet specialist.
"My LifeSet Specialist, Hannah Bluege, really took the time to build a relationship with me," Ary said. "I have so much to talk about, but I don't like to let people in all the time. She took the time to let me work at my own pace. She's persistent and caring and that means a lot to someone who doesn't have anyone."
Though some obstacles, including Covid-19, have paused her work, Ary continues to be an advocate for other transition-age youth. She's looking forward to getting back to work and saving money to return to college. Read Ary's full story: bddy.me/3mLBPoG ... See MoreSee Less

It took nine months of hard work and dedication, but in the end, it was all worth it. All 33 participants in the second edition of the FIFA Female Leadership Development Programme (FLDP), which promotes the development of female leaders in football, had successfully completed the course. With those taking part from the world's six FIFA confederations – Asia (AFC), Africa (CAF), Central America (CONCACAF), South America (CONMEBOL), Europe (UEFA) and Oceania (OFC) – the event in Amsterdam constituted a truly global success.

Following last week's announcement that, on the back of receiving its first Australian order, that a Screen digital label press will be shipped in for PrintEx; Screen GP Australia in conjunction with Jet Technologies are pleased to announce that DS Labels of Marrickville, Sydney is the first customer for the Truepress Jet L350UV in the region. Installation will be completed this week.
D.S Labels Pty Ltd was established in July 1990 and is a medium sized family owned self-adhesive label printer situated in the industrial hub of Marrickville. Its origins go back further to when it was the self-adhesive Label section of D.S Printing, who was at the very start of the self-adhesive label revolution in the 1960's when Avery Denison was brought to Australia. The company employs twelve people with an average service time of 15 years.
Managing Director Deane Sproule describes a lengthy research phase that led to his decision to go with Screen and Jet Technologies: "Our company has always specialized in the production of labels requiring high quality with short lead times and in short runs if needed. Our short run work has been produced either on one of our letterpress machines, or a small benchtop Rapid inkjet printer which, although very good, is limited where stocks are concerned."
35 self-adhesive stocks and counting
Sproule continues: "Over a year of research, we identified more than forty digital label presses from around twenty manufacturers, but were able to narrow this down to just a few over issues such as speed, local service, image quality and ability to print durable scuff-resistant labels on a wide range of self-adhesive stocks. After Jet Technologies put in the first demonstration L350UV in their technical centre, we were able to see real label production on 35 locally-available stocks. This machine was in daily use and, as it settled in and the white ink option was added, it became clear to us that this was the best way forward in our digital strategy."
Screen GP Australia Managing Director Peter Scott says: "It has been a long but very thorough process with extensive testing but I would like to congratulate Jack Malki and his team at Jet for a truly professional approach, listening to the customer and responding to every concern. Screen stands by its equipment with local factory-trained technicians and the willingness to bring in Japanese engineers if needed. DS Labels is a respected and prestigious customer to win and we are honoured to have been chosen as Deane's flagship digital label production supplier."
Jack Malki, Director of Jet Technologies, adds: "We have a long association with DS Labels through our inks and consumables division and are extremely proud to be part of Deane's digital strategy going forward. This has been a close collaboration of running tests, addressing questions and helping with the business model. We are confident that he has made the right decision and will see many new avenues for short and medium run label work emerge as a result."
DS Labels has also installed a Smag digital label finishing line supplied by Gulmen Engineering in cooperation with Jet Technologies.

R.I.P. Trip
February 26, 2010 @ 12:00 AM
The Herald-Dispatch
by Dave Lavender
One of my favorite sayings I ever ran across was scrawled on an outhouse wall in Williams, Ind., at the Padanaram. The saying read, "Life on Earth sure is expensive but at least you get one, free yearly trip around the sun."
Amen, and somebody who's made that annual sol journey a lot brighter and colorful for a whole lot of folks in the Mountain State and beyond was John Kevin "Trip" McKlenny, the founder of the Terra Alta, W.Va.-based Sunshine Daydream festival grounds.
Trip passed away this last week after a two-year bout with liver cancer. His memorial service is set for 1 p.m. Saturday by the Cheat River.
Virginia flat-picker Larry Keel, who I interviewed last week for his upcoming show (March 5) at the V Club, took a moment and talked about Trip and all he did for music in the mountains.
"I can't even imagine how many times we've played up there, it's been for years, really, and we've played with so many different combos," said Keel, who has a new CD out this summer with good buddy Keller Williams. "One of the first times was with Leftover Salmon and the last time we played up there it was with Tony Rice and that was really a special one. Trip's really done a lot for music up there and he was a good, good fellow and we're going to miss him. The older you get the more you lose and you see a lot more loss. The spirit of that fellow will live on because he did a lot for folks and cared a lot about people."
Bonnie Branciaroli, a longtime friend of Trip's and who's been trucking around the country for decades with her husband Mark in the Elkins-based jam band, ZEN, said life won't be the same without Trip.
You can help keep Trip's legacy alive by sharing the music as Sunshine Daydream is carrying on with a full slate of festival shows. The 2010 Festival Season begins May 12-14 weekend with the 10th annual TreeHuggers Ball. Ekoostik Hookah rolls in for two nights June 18-19 for the Highland Spring Jam, the 25th annual Jerry Garcia's Birthday Bash is set for July 29-31 and The Recipe Family Cookout is set for Sept. 16-17 and the 10th annual Halloween Masquerade party is set for Oct. 15-16.

Our string duo recently played for Wende and Sean's wedding on Cape Cod.
The ceremony was held at Union Chapel and the reception at the Hyannisport Country Club. We loved the chapel's old New England "feel". Wende chose Hymne by Vangelis for her processional. It's a good choice if you're looking for something a little different from the usual pieces like Canon in D or Handel Air. We've also played it for candle lightings.
The Hyannisport Country Club is a very elegant and well managed reception venue. Actually, you can have your ceremony there, as well. The staff even provided a guide to show us where our chairs were located. It seems like a simple thing but we often get to venues and can't find anyone to help us, even though I always call the event coordinator the week before the wedding to let her know how many musicians will be playing and what we'll need for seating.

-- The sibling's name was changed from the name that the game provides (Deborah) to Veronica to lend an authentic and uniqueness to my story.
The petite redhead crumpled the missive in her slender hand. Turning her head towards the messenger, she spoke in muted tones. "But they didn't find her body, she could still be alive!." The voice trembled with hope. She just had to believe that.
The messenger just spread his hands appologetically. Of course he wouldn't know, how could he. "I'm Sorry my lady, I was not told."
She sighed deeply and rose from the unadorned mahogany chair that she was seated on. "Yes of course. Thank you for delivering this." The smartly attired messenger bowed deeply and then took his leave.
Avarycce had spent all of her life following the teachings Dwayna, goddess of healing, air, and life. Having spent all of her time and effort into being a healer and the one person who most likely needed it the most was lost to her. At least their parentswould not be beside themselves with worry about their most daring and headstrong daughter. Both their parents were no longer among the living. Poor Veronica, either she was with their parents or she was a centaur's slave somewhere. Either scenario was not at all appealing.
Taking a deep calming breath she went back over to the chair and matching desk. Sliding a crisp sheet of parchment over in front of her, and taking the quill from the ink well, she began to write...

Back damage teams
I am LOVING using a Graves team. It has ended up being more flexible than I expected, but it's stupid easy enough that even I can do it (yay...). I assume it will get nerfed at some point, but I have noticed that back damage teams in general are pretty burly, so I am thinking I'll keep one in my queue. Anyway, my major question is: how do you counter them? So far back damage teams are what do the most damage to me. Thoughts?

1 – Nicolas Kummert: La Diversité
The major new international release from Belgian saxophonist Nicolas Kummert featuring guitarist Lionel Loueke.
Kummert's quartet brings together four diverse and creative minds in a unified album that will propel him to wide international attention. Six of the album's 14 tracks are actually duets featuring Nicolas and Lionel, highlighting the free-spirited interaction that has developed between them. (Bandcamp)
2 – Cameron Graves: Planetary Prince
A wonderful and eclectic album by Kamasi Washington's pianist and a founding member of the West Coast Get Down collective.
Cameron Graves is a pivotal figure ushering in a seismic shift within the jazz landscape and the game-changing arrival of the genre-blurring Los Angeles West Coast Get Down collective. With the release of Planetary Prince, the debut album by visionary pianist, keyboardist, composer and West Coast Get Down founding member, Cameron Graves, continues the evolution sparked by the 2015 release of Kamasi Washington's The Epic. (Mack Avenue)
3 – Omer Klein: Sleepwalkers
The newest work by the Israeli-born pianist, recorded with his world-touring trio featuring Haggai Cohen-Milo on bass and Amir Bresler on drums.
For jazz fans torn between European introspection and American intensity, Omer Klein offers a possible solution. Born in Israel and based in Germany, he spent a number of years in New York, playing with Avishai Cohen and Donny McCaslin and recording an album for John Zorn. The result is a pianist who falls somewhere between the abstraction of ECM and the gritty energy of the Bad Plus. (The Times)
4 – John Abercrombie Quartet, Up And Coming
The second album recorded by the jazz-rock pioneer with Marc Copland on piano, Drew Gress on double bass, and Joey Baron on drums.
Abercrombies liquid phrasing and glowing tone enabled by the thumb technique he has honed since eschewing a plectrum in recent years animate his five originals and the pair by Copland, as well as a take on the exotic-sounding Miles Davis classic Nardis done in the spirit of Bill Evans. Up and Coming has a twilight atmosphere, with melodic flow the guiding light. (Amazon)
5 – Colin Vallon Trio: Danse
The fifth album by the Swiss jazz pianist with Patrice Moret on double bass and Julian Sartorius on drums.
The Colin Vallon Trio has found its own space in the crowded world of the piano trio by quietly challenging its conventions. On its third ECM album Vallon again leads the group not with virtuosic solo display but by patient outlining of melody and establishing of frameworks in which layered group improvising can take place. (ECM Records)
6 – Anne Quillier Sextet: Dusty Shelters
The second album from the French pianist and music writer featuring Pierre Horckmans on bass clarinets, Aurélien Joly on trumpet and flugelhorn, Grégory Sallet on saxophones, Michel Molines on double bass, and Guillaume Bertrand on drums.
Inspired by Ambrose Akinmusire, Aaron Parks, David Binney, Maria Schneider… Anne Quillier 6tet create a rich dazzling enlightning music. Each piece is a painting, a tale in which writing,improvisation, reality and imaginary are meddled. (Collectif Pince-Oreilles)
7 – Wingfield, Reuter, Stavi and Sirkis: The Stone House
An incredible album recorded live in the studio by four Jazz masters with no overdubs: all of the music on this album was completely improvised with no music written down or rehearsed. A controversial but illuminating work featuring British guitarist Mark Wingfield, German touch guitarist Markus Reuter, bassist Yaron Stavi, and drummer Asaf Sirkis.
With all participants in peak form – at their most unpretentious and uninhibited best – The Stone House Sessions ranks as one of the most adventurous, intuitive, high-stakes gambles the genre has ever witnessed. These kind of moments just aren't supposed to happen in the confines of a studio. This is one bet that pays huge dividends … prepare to be blown away! (Bandcamp)
8 – Ralph Towner: My Foolish Heart
After critically-lauded projects with trumpeter Paolo Fresu (Chiaroscuro) and with fellow guitarists Wolfgang Muthspiel and Slava Grigoryan (Travel Guide), Ralph Towner returns to solo guitar with this new release for ECM.
Unsurprisingly from a player so known for picturesque sensibility (though always a delight to hear), My Foolish Heart paints another lovely series of aural images with a rich depth of experience behind it all. (All About Jazz)
9 – Chris Thile & Brad Mehldau, S/T
The collaborative project by American mandolinist virtuoso and vocalist Chris Thile and award-winning American pianist Brad Mehldau.
The affair is a vivid and fruitful meeting of minds that allows for dazzling tight interplay and delightful improv alike. Even a too-brief set can pack plenty of surprise. Fans of either artist doubtlessly are already set to come with open ears and unlikely to be disappointed; after all, it's friction among such different basic elements that often sets off the more colorful sparks. (All About Jazz)
10 – Benoît Lugué: Cycles
The new experimental jazz album from the French bassist's sextet, which features Matthis Pascaud on guitar, Martin Wangermée on drums, Denis Guivarc'h on saxophone, Johan Blanc on trombone & microKorg, and Olivier Laisney on trumpet.
In developing this new project, I wanted to work on the concept of trance music. Through this group I develop an electric sound inspired by contemporary jazz but also by rock, world music, pop, electronic music … I realized thus a synthesis of the many influences which I crossed since I became a musician. (Republic of Jazz)

L'Occitane Sublime Beauty Cream Review & Swatches
L'Occitane Sublime Beauty Cream ($36) has finally launched here in the US in Light and Medium shade selections. The new L'Occitane Iris Angelica Sublime Beauty Cream is made with a combination of two angelic flowers of white iris and angelica known for their hydrating properties.
Take a look!
Like most BB Creams released in the US market this acts as more of a skin perfecter than an actual full coverage BB Cream. Shades do seem to run darker as I tried Light and it wasn't a fairer, cooler shade but more of a warmer beige so do swatch in store prior to purchasing. It is a subtle pigmentation so a wider range of skin tones can get away with using it since it perfects but doesn't necessarily conceal problem issues.
It quite reminds me in texture and performance to Urban Decay's Naked Skin Beauty Balm in some ways. It has a beautiful rosy fragrance which might prove irritating to sensitive types but I think it's rather delightful!
Give it a good shake prior to use because either the sunscreen (SPF 30) or perhaps just the serum they are using in the formula is causing it to separate when squeezed out of the tube without a good shake. The texture is delightfully lightweight and quite hydrating so I think drier skin will adore it. It reminds me of a watery serum of sorts that absorbs easily and leaves skin nicely moist after application but dries down to soft, satiny finish.
It contains enough pigment to minimizes the appearance of minor redness while creating a smoother more uniformed finish so skin tone is more even and flawless. I feel like it acts as more of a skincare product than an actual makeup. Apparently the more you use it the more it'll approve your overall skin texture.
Although invisible once applied due to the sheerness of the product I find, like Urban Decay's Beauty Balm, it still gives my lackluster skin a bit of a boost so my skin just appears brighter, less tired, and fresher.
Unfortunately, the formula does get sucked in by drier skin so I can only get a two to three hour wear time out of as it fades away very, very quickly.
L'Occitane Sublime Beauty Cream isn't marketed as a BB Cream but merely a "beauty cream" and that makes some sense to me. For me it feels like a basic moisturizer slash tinted moisturizer. It feels quite luxurious to me (perhaps due to its beautiful scent) as the thinner consistency absorbs so easily into my skin and feels like I'm using some wonderful glamorous scented facial moisturizer. Coverage leaves much to be desired but if you merely wish to perfect and give your already good skin a nice even tone this might win a spot in your heart. However, those seeking the full coverage of a BB Cream might find it a disappointing formula.
It's available now at L'Occitane Boutiques or online at usa.loccitane.com

Roasted Veggies and Chicken Sausage Monday, February 27, 2017, 09:56 PM
This was a pretty standard meal. We chopped up onions, pepper, some (homegrown) kohlrabi, and canned artichoke hearts. We roasted it for about 35 minutes then added chicken sausage.
There wasn't much more to it. We made a double portion so we could take it for lunch.


text: This chair is loosely drawn on one I own, but unlike the real one, this imaginary one has "chairness". It's the Platonic ideal of a chair…simple, bold, self-contained. If I sat in this chair long enough I might take on some of those characteristics myself. The woman who owned this chair would have long messy windblown blondstreaked hair that tousled itself just so. She'd keep a few Martha Stewart chickens that lay pastel-colored eggs, not the kind that shit all over the yard and go into a brutal pecking frenzy when you try to gather their eggs. This woman–let's call her some newly fashionable old-fashioned name like Stella–would have a wrinkle-free J. Crew tan that never had to be checked for melanoma and dozens of friends who would appear for a spontaneous Sunday afternoon picnic around a rustic table made from old wine barrels spread with a vintage quilt instead of a tablecloth. In the middle of the family-owned vineyard. As a matter of fact, Stella probably has a wine named after her, with a watercolor of one of her fucking chickens on the label. What a bitch. I'd like to pull this chair right out from under her when she starts to sit down in it to have her portrait painted and watch her fall on her perfect Banana Republic butt. Stella lives in every magazine and catalog I've opened recently and I think it's time for her to get a job in a bank, worry about those sunspots on the back of her hands, and shop at Piggly Wiggly instead of Whole Foods.

Confused about what streaming services you should use?
Streaming video services like Netflix and Hulu are all the rage these days, especially for cord cutters. But many people who still subscribe to cable also pay for at least one streaming service.
So, how do you know which services provide the content you want, and how much do you have to pay to get it? If you're having a hard time trying to cut the cord, you're not alone.
"I've been trying to cut the cord for two months. And It's funny. I write about cutting the cord. And I'm finding it really difficult," Consumer Reports tech editor Jim Willcox said.
What makes this so hard for consumers and even for Willcox-- who's been covering streaming media since it began?
"Every time we come up with a service that we think we can use there's a program or a network or a channel that one of us wants that's not being offered that we say we can't live without," he explained.
From new services like Disney Plus to older favorites like Netflix, the world of streaming media is rapidly changing.
"There are services that are designed to really replicate what you used to get with cable TV, but in a streaming service. But then there are also these newer services that are really focused on creating original content," Willcox said.
It used to be that cutting the cord and replacing cable with a streaming service could save lots of money, but that's not always the case anymore.
"The calculus of cord cutting has really changed so much that you have to take into account everything from the TV shows you want, the cost of the different services, the cost of broadband is it gonna go up a lot more if you debundle it from a package," Willcox said
So, what can a confused consumer do?
"So, one of the first things you need to consider is how you're gonna get your local broadcast channels. So, if you can get an antenna, that's a great way to do it. It doesn't cost anything except for the cost of the antenna," Willcox said.
Next, sit down with your family and write a list of all the shows you can't live without. Then, see which services can provide them at the lowest cost. Websites like
can help you find out where many shows and movies are available for streaming.

John is a perfectionist!
I had a fabulous experience with John Archer at Dr. Screen. John replaced my patio screen door as the old screen door was giving me issues. John was very knowledgeable and caring while installing the new screen. He made sure to reinstall the track in order for the door to slide smoothly and perfectly fit into place.
John's personal customer service is the best I have experienced. He had a caring approach and was a true professional while answering my questions. I highly recommend John at Dr. Screen as he truly gets the job done right!

Just a quickie, as it's a bank holiday – something you might like to consider for your website. You know those "Live Instant Message Chat" buttons you see on some websites? People really like those. Even if they don't use them, it gives off a nice warm feeling that your company cares. Well, it's quite possible to put one of those on for free, using Google Talk. If you have a Google account, and your prospect does (and an increasing number of people do), then here's what you need.
You can see it in action on our website, although if you're reading this on bank holiday Monday, I'm sure you'll forgive my colleague Tony for being at the golf course or somewhere equally relaxing. Otherwise, I'm sure he'd love to chat.

I first came across Chipotle sauce whilst on holiday in New Orleans. I was surprised to find that McIlhenny, the
manufacturer of the eponymous ' Tabasco' sauce (you know, that small bottle of hot sauce that's been sitting in the back of the cupboard for the last 10 years?) makes a whole range of chilli sauces, and 'Chipotle' is treated as much as a table condiment as a cooking ingredient.
Chipotles are Jalapenos which have been smoke-dried to preserve them. Traditionally thay are smoked over
pecan wood and this gives them a wonderful sweet, nutty, fruity flavour. I brought a couple of bottles of sauce back with me, but quickly ran out. I could only find it in odd places, and it it was often very expensive. When my last bottle ran out I decided enough was enough and I'd just have to make my own (well, it was either that or have another trip to New Orleans, which I would recommend to anyone…)
Chipotle sauce is a medium-heat hot sauce which goes really well with chicken and fish, any kind of barbecue or Mexican dish.
Makes approx 600 ml
- 12-15 dried Chipotle Chillies (approx 40g)
- 1 tbsp Vegetable Oil
- 1 medium Onion, chopped
- 3 cloves Garlic, chopped
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 1/2 tbsp Sugar
- 200ml Cider Vinegar
- Remove stalks from chillies and split in 2 with a sharp knife or scissors. Knock out the seeds (but retain if you want a hotter sauce)
- In a frying pan, dry fry the chillies a couple at a time for a few seconds on each side to soften a little. Do not burn! Once fried, drop the chillies into a jug of hot water. Once finished, leave the chillies to soak for 30 minutes (also add the retained chilli seeds if preferred
- Gently fry the onion and garlic until softened but not coloured
- Pick out the chillies from the water but reserve the liquor. Taste the liquor – it should be hot and smoky with a fruity flavour, but not bitter. take the top 300 ml but reserve the dregs – this may contain grit from the chillies. If there isn't 300 ml or the liquid is bitter, take what you can and make the rest up with water
- In a food processor, blend the onions, chillies, vinegar, salt, sugar and chilli water until smooth
- Bottle into sterilized jars

I like to maneuver all furniture out or to the middle of the room and canopy it with plastic. To protect the floor, I roll out 4-mil plastic and tape it to the baseboard.

It's a good sign when you are too busy being outdoors climbing on a regular basis to write down a blog. Lastly it is raining right now after quite a number of weeks or largely dry and high quality climate in the highlands.

The Vancouver Hawks Field Hockey Club's (VHFHC) Spring Season
program is primarily focussed on skill development, team work, making new
social connections, and having fun.
The club has two main priorities for putting together teams:
i) social cohesion
ii) maintaining a balance of new and experienced, weak and strong players on all teams.
The Club Manager assigns Age Group Coordinators to put teams together int he U11-U18 boys and girls age divisions based on these priorities, following this set of guidelines.
1. Returning players are automatically placed on their previous team.
2. Players from teams that are folding are placed on new teams based on friend requests where possible.
3. New players are placed in teams based on friend requests where possible and in order of date received.
4. Late registrations are placed on teams as space allows. Friend requests are followed wherever possible.
5. Waitlisted players are placed if there is space on any team for them.
If your child is playing home and away games they will need the two colours to
make it easier for the umpires to differentiate between teams while they are
looking down at the turf, ball and sticks. It is very difficult to make a call
when both teams are wearing red socks. Your coach may ask you to change socks
right there on the field so please always have both your socks on hand.
U7 Players are expected to have a Hawks t-shirt only. These may be purchased at
U12 Players are expected to have a Kukri junior reversible Jersey. These may be
purchased at registration.
U13 – U18 Players are expected to have a Kukri adult Hawks Jersey. These may be purchased through registration or they may be borrowed from the club.
If players want to borrow the loaner adult jerseys, they must provide their team manager with a $50 deposit cheque for their Kukri Club jersey at the beginning of the Season. The cheque should be made out to "Vancouver Hawks FHC' post-dated 15 July 2018. The Team Manager returns the deposit cheque to the players when the jerseys are returned at the end of the season.

Lucien says it best: "I've flown planes, I'm a sailor who enjoys overnights with my wife and two sons on Chesapeake Bay, offshore racing, and I'm a good man in a storm. I enjoy DJ-ing and longboarding in NYC; in the 80's I taught myself to solve the Rubik's Cube in under a minute. I've been on TV, lived in a school bus on a hippie commune in Tennessee, spent summers in nudist communities, lived on a canal houseboat in Amsterdam, and experimented with numerous hallucinogens. Returning to Burning Man, I led a blind runner in two marathons without training. I was at ground zero on 9/11 and worked underground for weeks following. Raced classic sports cars and super bikes, lived through motorcycle crashes at 100 mph and jumped a car 30 feet into a tree, had multiple surgeries and almost died as a teenager with rusty steel puncturing a lung and scraping my heart, then again in a Brazilian undertow. I can wake board and water ski on one ski, enjoy SCUBA diving with sharks at night and snowboarding. I grew up SOHO with artists in the 60s-70s and still enjoy loft living. Can balance things on my nose, juggle and walk on my hands (not at the same time), don't sleep much, grew up in a bi-racial and gay family, am a published author and photographer focused on innovative techniques, a producer and creative director owning a successful studio with a staff of up to 20. I was a concert sound engineer/technician, I respect the color grey, stole a car, build electronics, program computer games, do all my own stunts, mentored minorities and women entrepreneurs for decades, enjoy cooking and eating strange foods, love math, puzzles and singing. I work well with my hands, fix and invent stuff. I've been skydiving and hang gliding, was arrested at least once but also promoted, applauded and awarded, I've been in a room with 40 dead bodies, avoid formal religions, rock climb, and was a NYC bicycle messenger.

In spite of tradition, I decided to duck out of the party early last night. The party itself was overwhelming - the tables were practically creaking under the weight of the food and bottles of beer on each. The main courses were roasted pork, deep fried spring rolls, salad made with thousand year old eggs and covered with mayonnaise (I think that was supposed to be a concession to health), spicy internal organ salad, beef stew and khao tom
Khao tom requires special mention since it's a special holiday food. It's made by pouring sticky rice, a mixture of ground beans and pork into a banana leaf tube. The tube is tied up with thin bamboo strips and the whole thing is steam under the rice expands, the pork is cooked and the whole thing has the weight of a brick. It's really dense food and the sticky rice is very sticky. In spite of the weight, you could press it to the wall and it would stick there...forever.
But it is really delicious. I enjoy eating a slice or two, especially if I don't have to eat anything else.
Anyway, when I arrived at the party, I sat down with several women whom I didn't know. They barely talked to me, or to each other, but they went through a whole plate of the khao tom, drank a bottle of beer each and devoured the other dishes. And when they're mouthes were not full, they keep commanding me to eat more.
I was so stuffed that I made my excuses and went home early, well earlier than midnight. I heard the sounds of the firecrackers from my house. I guess I didn't auspisicize any houses this year - but when I explained this morning, all my friends understood. One stifled a yawn. "We were up till 3 am. The party just went...forever."

Man United closing in on £80M midfielder wanted by Pochettino
Manchester United are in the process of rebuilding after a disappointing 2018/2019 season and the club has been linked to several players.
One of which is Lyon ace Tanguy Ndombele and reports from England claims that Manchester United are willing to splash the cash to sign the Frenchman.
The Red Devils are light in midfield following the exit of Ander Herrera and the club are looking at the Lyon star as a key addition to the squad.
Ndombele enjoyed a breakthrough season at Lyon with the Frenchman a unique midfielder. Capable of playing in the central midfield position or as a defensive midfielder he possesses the strength and passing ability to thrive in the Premier League.
His performances have attracted attention from top clubs across Europe with Tottenham, PSG, Juventus and Manchester City monitoring his progress. However, Tottenham are said to be keen favourites for play amidst indecision of the other clubs interested in his signature.
Lyon are said to be demanding a fee of £80 million for the midfielder who scored 2 goals and provided 7 assists in all competitions this season. This would represent the second highest fee that United would shell for a player if the transfer goes through.
The current transfer landscape means that players are overpriced in the market Ndombele is certainly not worth £80 million. Despite this Manchester United remains one of the few clubs that can afford such a fee.
