I had a really good one a few months back but I didnt save a screen shot It was on the Break da bank again, playing 27cents a spin and 5 emeralds(x5 x5 x5) in the free spins feature. Was mega bucks. Well for me

It was late afternoon again. Mabel was snoring peacefully beside me. There were some perks to having an old dog, including being able to work almost uninterrupted whilst enjoying their company. The dusk was settling on the diagonal panes of glass in the living room windows. It was cold outside, so condensation was clinging in half-moons to the frames. I had decided to switch things up a little by putting my feet up in the living room to work instead of in the draughty office upstairs. We had a wood stove in the living room, and my feet were comfortably close to the glowing embers. The problem with wood stoves, however, was that you had to keep getting up every so often to pile more wood into them. I also had another problem. There wasn't enough space in my lap for both my laptop and the book I was translating. I made a mental note to add both a lap desk to my Christmas list and to request an electronic copy of my next project.
My phone rang upstairs, upsetting the thick silence, and I nearly jumped out of my skin. Why wasn't it on silent? I weighed up the options in my head over the next few seconds. Go upstairs into the chilly bedroom, disturb my sofa nest, and what if it was a cold call, someone asking if I'd had a road accident in the last six months? What if it was a friend? What if it was my mother-in-law?
Having hesitated a moment too long, I leapt up the stairs two at a time and picked up on what must have been the final ring.
"Hey, stranger!" it was Lucille.
"Oh hey, Lucille", I tried and failed to conceal my panting, "I'm so glad you're not my mother-in-law."
"Me too. So are you coming this weekend or not? I need to know whether to take the kids to my own mother-in-law. She looks at me every time like I've failed in that department, but if this was a job, I'd already have earned two week's overtime."
Her voice did sound exhausted, but it was still flavoured with her slight French accent. Even after twenty years in London, she still hadn't lost it.
"Yes! Of course, why wouldn't I be?"
"Well, I don't know, we've barely spoken for a week. Since you moved en provence it's like you fell off the face of the Earth."
I sighed. She was right. Anytime I was having a stressed-out period, I withdrew. Some people loved to talk things through, I always felt like a burden.
"I know, I'm sorry. I've just had a lot on my plate here, settling in, mothering Freya whether she likes it or not, taking on extra projects to cover the moving costs and mortgage while James digs holes all day…"
Lucille giggles "Don't be too hard on him. One of you has to enjoy their job!"
I smile down the phone, as if Lucille can hear it. "You know I love my job, just not fifty hours a week."
"Who would?" Lucille had always worked part-time as a French tutor. Her husband was a lawyer, so her work was basically window-dressing when it came to the family finances.
"So I'll drive down for Saturday afternoon? What are you cooking?" That was another joke. Lucille could burn water.
"Tea. And then we'll go somewhere nice."
"Yes, sure. See you then. I miss you" that was only the tip of the iceberg really.
"You too. Are you doing okay up there?" she was perceptive, always.
"Not really. I'm worried I'm not normal. Something put my glasses in the fridge and James thinks it's a bad joke. I'll tell you all about it when I get there"
Lucille never missed a beat with my weirdness. She had her own eccentricities, whereas James had always preferred to put my problems in the same category as the sleeping pills in my bedside drawer and pretend they didn't exist. "Well that's certainly not normal. Colour me intrigued."
"Thank you for your warm and comforting words, Lucille", I couldn't help laughing down the phone.
"I'll have a bottle of wine waiting for you when you get here. He's my therapist too", I didn't know if she was joking. As with all good female friendships, the conversation meandered long after the first goodbye, but I finally hung up when I heard James stomping through the front door.
"Shoes off!" I yelled for the hundredth time.
"Sorry, I forgot they were on my feet!" he lied. "Speaking of which- why were my work boots outside the front door this morning? Is this another one of your silly little jokes?"
"What?" I was genuinely baffled.
"I couldn't find them this morning before heading off. I had to put my walking boots on instead. Then, when I open the front door, lo and behold, there they are. It had been raining all night and they were soaked." he fixed me with a wounded glare, like a schoolboy who's just had his sweets confiscated mid-lesson.
"Why do you think it must have been me?" I asked, equally wounded.
"I don't know. It seems to be your thing lately, playing little jokes and putting things where they shouldn't be. Maybe out of boredom, maybe out of spite, I don't know" he narrowed his eyes at me. This was all a bit much.
"Don't you think you could have just left them there and forgotten about them, as a mistake? Maybe Freya thought it would be funny? Don't jump down my throat about it" I bit back. Inside, I was shaken. Was I now putting boots out in my sleep? What was the next step, milk in the kettle? Spaghetti hoops in the bath? It felt like this house was playing tricks on me.
I must have been broadcasting bewildered innocence, because he visibly mellowed. "Look, I don't want to argue about this. There was no harm done, I suppose. Nothing fell on my toe today, and they should be dry by now, because I put them upside down on the radiator this morning," he pointed to them- I hadn't actually noticed them until now "so we can we kiss and make up?"
"Charming and refined, as ever" I joked, kissing him on the cold cheek.
"How was your day?"
"Cold. Can you look at the radiator in the study? I had to migrate to the living room" I pouted.
He rolled his eyes. "There's probably just some air trapped in it."
"Well if it's so easy, you'll get it done in no time!" I breezed.

Last night, Susie and I went out to Le Crocodile for her birthday dinner, and I wrote this email to a friend:
I'll let Susie describe dinner:
I will also note that dessert was chocolate mousse prefaced by an amuse bouche of pear sorbet and eau de vie, which is like water gone bad. And the check came with four delightful little chocolate crocodiles which tried to bite my head off but ended up having the reverse happen.
I had considered ordering the skate, in honor of Steve Irwin, but decided not to.
The nice thing about Dover Sole is that the waiter has to do all this extra work at your table side to debone it. I like any food that requires the server to fuss with it. Like grinding pepper. I usually don't even want it, but I always say yes because I like the fussing.
Ooh, this is starting to sound like a blog entry. I think I'll post it.
And so I did.

The new year offers opportunities for many Americans in their careers and financial lives. The "Great Reshuffle" is expected to continue as employees leave jobs and take new ones at a rapid clip.
At the same time, many workers have made a vow to save more this year, yet many admit they don't know how they'll stick to that goal.
One piece of advice: Keep it simple.

Financial help can lead to happiness. How to find the right professional for you
To make your financial New Year's resolutions stick, here's what you need to do
"Try to simplify your investments and simplify your financial life," said Roger Young, a Baltimore-area certified financial planner at T. Rowe Price. "And that's especially important with so many people now changing jobs during the pandemic.
Review workplace retirement plan contributions
One of the best financial moves to make is to reset your retirement plan contributions, experts say. In 2022, employees can contribute up to $20,500 to a 401(k) or 403(b) plan and most 457 plans in the federal government's Thrift Savings Plan — that's $1,000 more than the limit in 2021. If you're age 50 or older, you can add another $6,500 in "catch-up" contributions.
Contribute to traditional or Roth accounts — or both
One decision is whether to put money pre-tax in a traditional 401(k) or workplace plan or contribute after-tax dollars in a Roth account. One rule of thumb to help guide that decision is your age and income, with younger people more likely to be in a lower tax bracket now than in later years.
"They may recommend you put all in a Roth, particularly if you are in a lower income tax bracket and the tax savings really isn't important to you right now," said Kamila Elliott, president of Grid 202 Partners and chair of CFP Board. "If you're in a higher income bracket, perhaps having some pre-tax savings could be beneficial."
Increase automatic contributions to accounts
Whether you're putting new money into a traditional or Roth 401(k), experts advise reviewing your automatic contributions. Try to increase them by 1% to 2%, or at least enough to get your company's matching contribution, even if you can't fully fund the account.
Do your best to get the employer match.Kamila Elliottpresident of Grid 202 Partners and chair of CFP Board
"For some people, $20,500 is a stretch," Elliott said. "It's a great goal to have but they can't achieve it."
If you can't reach the maximum contribution limit, she said, "do your best to get the employer match — and then slowly work your way up."
Check out target date funds for simple rebalancing
Also, take the time to rebalance your portfolio, so you're not taking on more, or less, risk that you want or need, financial advisors say. With the S&P 500 Index soaring nearly 27% in 2021, many investors may have a greater percentage of their retirement money in equities than they planned for to help meet their retirement goals.
Young recommends initially investing in a target date fund that gradually shifts assets from stocks to bonds as you get closer to retirement or when you'll need the money. "It adjusts for you and makes sure that the risk level is appropriate," he said, adding target date funds are a "one-stop way to get invested and not have to worry about so much going forward."
Evaluate options for old 401(k) money
And for the job changers, if you still have 401(k) money with a former employer, you can leave the funds there, but you may want to consider rolling it into a 401(k) with a new employer or into an individual retirement account. Just don't cash it out or you'll face a potentially significant tax hit and pay a penalty, depending on your age, Young warns.
Also, for new contributions to traditional or Roth IRAs, you can put in up to $6,000 this year, same as last year. And, if you're 50 or older, the maximum contribution is $7,000. If you didn't make an IRA contribution in 2021, you have until the tax filing deadline in April to do that and have it count for last year.

Wanuskewin Heritage Park. Image courtesy Wanuskewin website
CN Rail has made a $500,000 donation to the Wanuskewin Heritage Park's Thundering Ahead Campaign.
The company is the latest contributor to the fundraising drive to help renew the park.
In a prepared release, Wanuskewin Board Chair Candace Wasacase-Lafferty said, "This contribution will help us continue our efforts to preserve the ecology and biodiversity of the site, in addition to our many land-based educational programs."
One part of the The Thundering Ahead Campaign will be an expansion of the land base to accommodate a small herd of Plains Bison. The initiative will also introduce exhibit galleries and improve educational offerings, expand the current facility to accommodate larger conferences and meeting groups, renovate the 25-year-old interpretive centre and include an application for UNESCO World Heritage designation.
If successful, Wanuskewin would become just the 18th UNESCO site in Canada and first in Saskatchewan to receive the prestigious recognition.

I've been a Downton Abbey fan for a long time. I've been to see the new movie twice now. It was fun entertainment, but something I didn't expect happened while I was watching it.
I got a spiritual lesson straight from above.
Without providing too much of a spoiler alert, warning there might be a little… let me continue.
There seems to be quite the uproar though, when the excited downstairs staff realize that they will not be allowed to serve the King and Queen, but will be pushed aside by the royal traveling staff.
Yes, the King and Queen bring their own staff, footmen, housekeepers, cooks, etc.
What started out as great excitement for the staff turns into a huge disappointment.
But through creative means the tides turn and the DA staff are able to serve the royalty.
There is a scene right before the footmen carry the endless trays of bounty to the dining table. Their excitement is palpable.
At that moment it occurred to me that we as sons and daughter of Jehovah God are also royalty. But something didn't fit with the image I was seeing on the screen.
In our Kingdom, in God's Kingdom, we are not the served, but the servers even though we are royalty. And the people at the table are those we have been called to serve.
And then it hit me. We are to serve others with the same over abundant zeal and enthusiasm, with same intense joy and excitement as the DA staff had as they were walking into serve the King and Queen.
That instantaneous lesson caused me to evaluate myself. Do I as royalty serve with that kind of zeal and heartfelt enthusiasm? Do I find creative ways to make sure that I am serving them because my desire is so great?
Let's all think about that today. Are we as eager as the DA downstairs team was to serve? Picture Jesus washing his disciples feet. Picture the parable where we hold a dinner and compel the needy to come in and eat.
A lesson to learn. It was for me.
I want to encourage you to leave me any comments below. They are so encouraging and motivating to me.
Click Here so you don't miss a single article and other good tidbits!
...We've all been stuck in our lives. Sometimes we are stuck because deception, or believing a lie, has painted us into a corner. Our prideful refusal to admit we believed a lie keeps us stuck.
This can happen...
...Depending on your type of personality and upbringing, this may happen quickly or take several years to surface and is challenging to recover from.
There was once a person who had it all, money and pleasure. He had all the money a person could want. He had all the pleasure a person could hope for. The euphoria of having it all did not last, and it did not sustain because he had lost the one and only life giving motivator and could not get it back...

Matt Reeves' 'The Batman' sequel not expected until 2025
The Batman is directed by Matt Reeves and stars Robert Pattinson, Zoë Kravitz, Paul Dano, Jeffrey Wright, John Turturro, and others
Fans of The Batman may have to wait for a couple of years to winess the sequel to Matt Reeves' iteration of their superhero. Reportedly, The Batman 2 is not expected to release until at least 2025.
Matt Reeves'The Batman released in March of this year, and development of a sequel has been underway ever since the first film was met with success. In April, Warner Bros. announced a sequel was in the making, which will feature the return of Matt Reeves as director and Robert Pattinson as Batman. The decision to postpone the sequel likely comes as a result of the recent appointment of James Gunn and Peter Safran as co-CEOS of DC Studios. Their appointment has affected the status of numerous other DC projects, with some being put on hold or even canceled, such as Batgirl and The Wonder Twins.
Matt Reeves recently signed a deal with DC Studios, and is planning on creating a separate universe for his future projects, referred to as "The Batverse". This will allow for more Batman films and spinoffs to operate independently of the cinematic universe that Gunn and Safran plan on forming.
The Batman is directed by Matt Reeves and stars Robert Pattinson, Zoë Kravitz, Paul Dano, Jeffrey Wright, John Turturro, and others.

Monalisa Klaxon 7b on Louis-Philippe in Freyr Belgium.
Limestone Rock
One of my nicest routes I have done in Freyr which took some tries back in 2004.
Good memories.
Belayed by Henk and pictures taken by Erik.
I was introduced to "FREYR" by Wim Schriek a early dutch climber that did most of the routes in Freyr with the old grading system.
I learned to respect the particular way of standing on your feet and facing hard graded routes with some wide spaced bolting in the Belgium way.
Nevertheless I and later we enjoyed the surroundings and the view onto the Meuse from the top.
Great 😅

Montserrat is a mountain in Catalonia Spain about 50km Northwest of Barcelona.

In this year our first official sport climbing adventure started in France. Gorge Du Tarn is a wonderful gorge situated in the South of France. The river the Tarn has made this Gorge to a wonderful sporting and living area. The Gorge consist of limestone, mergel and dolomite.
We drank cheap fresh Wine from local vine-guard farmers with low alcohol which replaced bottles like it were milk bottles.
For the evening we cooked trout on the barbecue, the trout was catched in the river and harvested to big fish for consumption.
This was the first sporting vacation without knowing that a lot more will come one our way 😍❤❤

Nideggen in Germany is a well known climbing area with amazing conglomerate rock. Every time climbing here you will have to get used to picking the correct pebbles and hope they don't break out.
We did a lot in Nideggen and I have even climbed on the "Burgwand" when it was opened for just one year. Nowadays a lot of crags have been closed by the nature goverment to protect the flora and fauna. We met the old route builders in their 70's still fighting to open the crags as they had built the routes themselves.
The lady even used an rollator to come to the crag 😀, very brave.
Nevertheless still worthwhile for a visit and climbing the classics

Sikati Cave in Kalymnos, Greece. It's a climbers wonderland! Climbers from all over the world come to visit this island for the perfect an unbelievable rock. Here you can see Jan in the magnificent route called 'Morgan' 7b+, a 3D rock formation with a very steep of 45 degrees. With a overhang down in the cave with nice Tufa's are. In the picture above you don't see Sandra, but she is further down. In de picture on the right you seen Sandra down below. We hope to come here once again, and hopefully soon.
This picture is just to give you an idea about the scale of the Sikati cave. See the small indications where Jan is climbing and Sandra is belaying 😍. Needless to say it gigantic!
October 2017
We are back again in Kalymnos, Greece. Now climbing the overhang called 'Divine Comedy 7a' in the crag called 'Sea Breeze'. We had a wonderful holiday with plenty of sun for October. We met two ladies where currently making a van tour through Europe, which we follow on the internet. This was a very nice occasion fort hem to join us on our climbing trip. We must say that the van tour was born here😀.

This is our first post Corona and after healing our injuries climbing holiday in the South of France. We always love the area of the Provence. Nice atmosphere and beautiful scenery and lovely wines. It was still chilly in April but we enjoyed the sun when it was there. We also needed our winter clothes when the sun was away or it was freezing. Nevertheless we had a wonderful climbing holiday and it was good to be back on track. Needless to say we still need a lot of training to come to our own level again.
Look at the sky and different level blue tones in the pictures.

Our week in May in the Provence. We rented a Gite in the village La Penne Sure Ouvèze. A great week with ups and downs. Great and less good weather but overall a nice break from home and work. We did quite some challenging routes and enjoyed the surroundings with wineyards and beautiful rocks. Please see our Youtube movies 🤩
May 2022
Celebrating the 60th birthday of our friend Peter. We the team we went to the Belgium Ardennes and had a blasting weekend in a marvelous Gite in Geskes. We enjoyed 3 climbing areas in the surroundings and did a great barbecue evening on the Saturday. Durnal, Burnote and Beez, great weekend with food in Jezus Eik 🍖.
July 2022
Hi beautiful people we went on vacation in the area area of Guillestre and Briançon in the south of France around the Alps. We did some new rock climbing adventurers in several crags sectors like Mont Dauphin, Simoust, Tournoux, Clapeyto and Rue de Marques. There is such a variety of different rock: limestone, granite and conglomerate. I made a large fall 10 meters from a slippery pebble and had to heal for a couple of days. We invited some young ladies from the camping to go for their first climbing experience.
We mainly had good weather with sometimes a rain shower but mostly very nice. We enjoyed the food and environment on our camping. Please leave us a comment if you want any information from us 😀 🙋🏻♀🙋♂ Sandra and Jan.

Damon Root on the Federalist Case Against the Defense of Marriage Act
Next week the Supreme Court will hear oral argument in United States v. Windsor, the case arising from the legal challenge to the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). At issue is whether Section 3 of DOMA, which forbids the federal government from recognizing same-sex unions that are permitted under state law, violates the equal protection component of the Fifth Amendment. But as Reason's Damon Root explains, the case is also about federalism. Because DOMA exceeds Congress' enumerated powers while trampling on legitimate state authority, the law stands on shaky constitutional ground.

The Redskins placed safety Reed Doughty on injured reserve and signed defensive back Mike Green to the roster, the team announced on Tuesday.
Green is a 9-year veteran who has played with the Chicago Bears and Seattle Seahawks.
Doughty has been sidelined with a back injury.
The 6-1, 209-pound third-year player out of Northern Colorado started two of the Redskins' first six games--versus the New York Giants and Arizona Cardinals.
He was inactive for the Redskins' 19-17, Week 6 setback to the St. Louis Rams at FedExField.
Rookie Chris Horton has assumed the bulk of the work at strong safety, alongside free safety LaRon Landry.
Doughty had six total tackles in the opener at the Meadowlands and eight total tackles against the Cardinals.
He was a starter six times in 2007, producing 51 tackles and a half sack.
Green played in Chicago under current Redskins defensive coordinator Greg Bache.
He spent the first six years of his career with the Chicago Bears and started 45 of 81 games for the Bears.
Traded to Seattle during the 2006 offseason, Green missed his first year with the Seahawks after being placed on injured reserve with a Lisfranc injury.
He played in 15 games for Seattle last year, including one start, and logged 17 tackles and one pass defended.
For his career, Green has 406 tackles (327 solo), six sacks, seven forced fumbles and four interceptions.
The Ruston, La., native, Green attended Northwestern State.

David Mohr is a painter, in acrylic, in music and in word. David wrote the lyrics basically as they are sung, with a few small changes because sometimes it's difficult to make the melody do exactly what you want it to, and then I just repeat the chorus a lot at the end. This was David's response when I asked about meaning: "The lyric "Rushing Lattice" was about being fenced in or caged in and ultimately trying to come to peace with that feeling. ...My guess is stray cats have an unfathomable wildness that haunts them as they try to make sense of their pocket of human society. I was trying to write about the idea of caring for a creature that has no idea it is being cared for and how doing something good can be perceived as the opposite." When I was writing the music for this one I was seeing a lot of really horrific footage from the 2019-2020 Australian Bush-fires and I was thinking about all the animals trying to escape that were being rescued by humans, but since we can't communicate with Koalas they have no way of knowing our intentions. So sometimes I think about Koalas when I'm singing this song.
This is the PDF David sent me that had the original version of the lyrics.
Jack listening to the first mix of Rushing Lattice at The Atomic Garden Recording Studio.
Synths & Background Vocals
Sometimes when you start adding stuff to a song you're not really sure where it's gonna go, and when a little of something cool is too much (it usually is). So, Jacob has a Juno-60, and an Ace Tone Top-5 Combo Organ. We used both of these extensively during the additional recording that we did at Jacob's house. I think the Ace Tone combined with Jacob's guitar at the end of the song take us into something like Yo La Tengo stylistically, which I think was a cool place for us to go.

Race drivers never know what worst could happen to them. The worst of all happened this Sunday to one of Indycar's biggest and popular star, Dan Wheldon.
The 33-year-old racer was a two-time Indy winner, including this year's race. Three other drivers, including championship contender Will Power, were hurt in the pileup during Lap 11.
Wheldon was airlifted from the track to University Medical Center; about two hours later, his colleagues were told of his death by IndyCar CEO Randy Bernard, who said Wheldon's injuries were "unsurvivable."
"Things happen in this kind of racing," said Wade Cunningham, also caught up in the wreck. "It's so close. Not much room for error. I was near the front of what caused all this, so I'm not thrilled about it. At this point, whose fault it was is kind of immaterial."
Wheldon, driving from the back of the field for a chance at $5 million, was in the middle of the pack when he drove into a tangle of cars careening off each other in every direction. Unable to avoid the massive wreck unfolding before him, Wheldon clipped another car and went hurtling through the air, his car bursting into flames as it flew into a fence.
Video replays showed Wheldon's car turning over as it went airborne and sailed into what's called the catch fence, which sits over a barrier designed to give a bit when cars make contact. Rescue workers were at Wheldon's car quickly, some furiously waving for more help to get to the scene.

Does your kid live to sing? Do they have the ability to quickly perform and learn complex songs they hear on the radio, YouTube, or TV? They may be a natural! Singing auditions for kids in Baywood were created to find kids who can perform in front of an audience or for:
Commercials ◘ TV Shows ◘ Movies ◘ Plays ◘ Concerts
Singing Auditions for Kids in Baywood: Preparation
Find a Singing Teacher. A singing teacher should help you choose songs that promote your skills. He/she can teach you methods to develop the individuality of your voice. He/she will also provide you with exercises to practice that will dramatically improve range, sound strength, and intonation. Singing auditions for kids in Baywood have varying requirements. A singing instructor will give you the support you need to prepare for all of them.
Learn about the audition. Know what kind of show, venue, or competition you are auditioning for. Choose a song appropriate for the event. If there are no stated requirements, use your strengths.
Group or solo? Are you expected to be singing in a chorus or by yourself? It can be a significant difference. Being able to sing your part in harmony with others is different than singing solo. Singing auditions for kids in Baywood may require you to do both or just one.
Let your voice rest. The voice gets tired extremely quickly if you're not used to lots of singing. Avoid any demanding activities that require you to raise your voice, such as cheering at a concert or outside activities that require you to shout over far distances. Assure you get a good night's sleep the night before your audition. This will help your voice to rest.
Audition Day: 7 Tips
1. CHOOSE SONGS WITHIN YOUR CAPABILITIES. There is an impulse to choose music for an audition that highlights your talent. Singing auditions for kids in Baywood are rarely designed to find a kid with superstar talent. They are usually for hiring someone with singing skills that can meet the needs of the production. Select music that features your strengths, but aren't so hard that you risk failing the audition terribly.
2. CHOOSE AN APPROPRIATE STYLE. Select a piece of music that fits the audition. If you are auditioning for a rock band, don't choose a country song for the audition.
3. AVOID OBSCENITIES. Don't select a song with obscenities or potentially inappropriate material. The last thing you need to do is upset the staff/judges. Singing auditions for kids in Baywood normally focus on family material. Choose music that is demanding but has a positive message.
4. WARM UP THE VOICE. Do your vocal warmups before you get to the audition location. Unless told otherwise, don't expect to be allowed to warm up. Do them in the hotel, at home, or in the car on the way if you have to. Just because you're going to singing auditions for kids in Baywood, doesn't mean they won't be difficult. Voice warmups are always necessary when performing.
5. PLAN OUT THE WHOLE AUDITION. Before you even walk into the audition location, prepare for everything. You may not know exactly what the judges expect, but you do know what you want to accomplish. Plan how you're going to come out, what you're going to do with| the microphone, how you'll present yourself to the staff, how you will describe the music and the reason you chose it.
6. DON'T DANCE. Unless you have been instructed to include dancing with the music, try to minimize your movement during the audition. Singing auditions for kids in Baywood don't normally request too much movement on stage. Don't wander around and only use hand motions that are part of the song and natural (e.g., pointing to yourself when singing the words "me" or "we".
7. DON'T APOLOGIZE AND BE CONFIDENT. It may seem like the appropriate thing to do when you err, but don't apologize. Judges are searching for someone with confidence. When you say things like, "I wasn't in my best voice today" or, "My voice isn't warm enough," it shows that you aren't prepared. Be confident in your abilities. Get prepared before the audition. If you make a mistake, sing through it. Do your best, and don't look back!
Examples of Singing Auditions for Kids in Baywood
We are too familiar with big time TV competitions like "America's Got Talent." Actually, most singing auditions for kids in Baywood are not on TV. Here are a few samples of singing auditions, to give you a sense of what to expect:

Cardiorespiratory endurance, stamina, strength, power, speed, flexibility, agility, accuracy, balance, and coordination: you're as good as your weakest link.— Coach Glassman
Do you have trouble nailing those Double Unders, Kipping Pull Ups, or progressing in some other area of your fitness? Warming up can help you break through those plateaus. Take it from someone that is still weak in the Handstand Push Ups and the Pistols – by not practicing these skills during my warm up routine I still have to scale them down.
Warming up provides us two opportunities: preparing the body for given activity, and mastering new skills.
According to the American Council on Exercise's (ACE) Third Edition Manual:
- Warming up permits a gradual metabolic adaptation, prevents premature onset of lactic acid accumulation, causes an increase in muscle temperature which reduces the risk of injury, facilitates neural transmission for motor unit recruitment, improves coronary blood flow, allows a gradual redistribution of blood flow to active muscles, increases elasticity of connective tissues, provides a screening for future musculoskeletal and metabolic problems that may arise at higher intensities, and provides a psychological warm up.
That's all fine and dandy, but the main point to take away from this is that it helps prevent injury.
As far as improving  athletic skills, don't practice it and you will never get it. Double Unders require learning the timing and speed and practicing it to the point it becomes muscle memory. This goes for everything. WoDs will help improve skills but there still needs to be some extra effort put in by the athlete. Double Unders do not just come to a person, and the same can be said for most skills (Muscle Up transition, hitting the "Power Position" in a lift).
Use the warm up to develop the areas in which you're lacking. If you are someone that has a hard time getting your knees to track out over your toes take the time to really force the knees out and hold it to help build the Sartorius (adductor) muscle. Practice climbing the rope or learning how to lock your feet into place while ascending the rope. Practice the Burgener Warm Up: Coach Burgener recommends executing the Burgener Warm Up every single day to aid in the Olympic Lifts. Similarly, if you choose to do 20 Kettlebell Swings you can be assured that when a "Helen" or "Filthy Fifty" pops up you will be better prepared for it.
Warming up is a crucial element to your success as an athlete for injury prevention, preparing for a ME (Max Effort) lift, or working on your weak areas. As CrossFitters we all have weaknesses – every last one of us. So my advice is "warm up; become a better athlete".

We can ignore many sounds, but not the human voice
A limit in our attention means that we don't detect every single sound. However, new research suggests that we almost always pay attention to the human voice.
The human voice might be a sound that is too critical for us to avoid, and less affected by our attention limit. Photo: Jason Rosewell/Unsplash.
What are the sounds you hear in an office? Sounds of colleagues typing on their keyboards, the photocopier being started, footsteps in the corridor, a notification sound from someone receiving an email.
Merve Akca is a doctoral research fellow at the RITMO Centre for Interdisciplinary Studies in Rhythm, Time and Motion and conducts research on people's attention and perception of sound.
"We are quite good at hearing different sound sources and distinguishing them from each other. Maybe you can tell what type of shoes someone is wearing by listening to their footsteps, or even guess who is wearing them", Akca says.
A limit to what we notice
In an open plan office, we can ignore some sounds and focus on what is important to us.
"We like to think that this is something we can do. But we know that there is a limit to how much information we can pay attention to", says Akca.
One of these limits is called the 'attentional blink' in cognitive psychology and has been mostly used to find out what we are able to detect visually. Akca describes the blink as an attention limitation where images go undetected and sounds are not heard.
"One could say that your attention closes its eyes, metaphorically speaking. When we pay attention to information that comes in quick succession, there is a short window where our attention system seems to fail temporarily", she says.
"The window in which we miss information is assumed to be between two hundred to five hundred milliseconds. So, in a stream of different sounds, you are not going to notice the sounds that follow each other within this window", she explains.
Our voices are too important not to notice
Akca wanted to find out if our attention limit is inevitable, not only when we see images, but also when we hear sound.
"The human voice is a sound that is interesting to test in this context because it is special to us. For example, we know that a lot of information is communicated to us via the voice", says Akca.
This autumn, she will defend her doctoral thesis 'Attending to Sounds in the Blink of an Eye', where she has investigated whether human voices, among other sounds, are less affected by our attention limit.
"The voice gives us many clues about who a person is, about gender and emotions, among other things. We create relationships and we communicate through it. Previous research tells us that voice recognition starts before birth. So, the human voice might be a sound that is too critical for us to avoid", Akca explains.
Musical people detect their own instrument with ease
In order to investigate whether individual factors such as musicality could affect the attention limit, the participants in the study were divided into two groups of cellists: experts and novices.
The target sounds that participants were to detect were vowels from a human voice and tones from a cello. They were played together using a pure tone, a sound from an organ, and distracting background sounds from a modern environment and white noise.
"The cello was chosen because of its similarities with the human voice. Participants heard a series of short sounds that were played very quickly. Among twenty different sounds, they were supposed to pay attention to the two target sounds and report they heard the sound of a human voice", Akca explains.
The researchers then found that musicality affected the ability to perceive instrumental tones.
"The cellists who were considered experts were good at detecting all sounds, including their own instrument, the organ and the human voice", she says.
For the group of beginners, however, the sound of the cello was lost in the attentional blink when the sounds followed each other in quick succession. When there was a longer duration between the sounds, they managed to hear them.
"This shows that expert cellists have an attention advantage in detecting their own instrument", she says.
The voice is least affected by the attention limit
"With regard to the human voice, the participants, regardless of their musical expertise, managed to detect the sound even when the sounds followed each other in quick succession", Akca discovered.
"It was easy for the participants to recognise the human voice and the pure tone. The explanation may be that the pure tone is acoustically easy to hear, while the human voice has its evolutionary significance", she believes.
The study also made it clear that the duration of the sound affected how well the participants perceived it.
The participants heard sounds that lasted 90 milliseconds and 30 milliseconds. By testing different durations, they were able to compare the results. In the study when musicality was controlled for, duration had no bearing on how well they heard the sounds.
"In the study where participants differed in their musicality levels, , they also recognised the tones with the shortest duration. It was fascinating to see that one can recognise and detect sounds of such short duration", says Akca.
Watch when Merve Akca defends her doctoral thesis 'Attending to Sounds in the Blink of an Eye'.

The Magpies are quick to add to their crew in January and have clearly sounded out the Gunners forward in front of an expected change to St James' Park.
Aubameyang could be offered an exit from north London with Newcastle allegedly keen on marking him.
As per the Daily Mirror, Newcastle United – who were liable to a hair-raising £300m takeover recently – have reached the north Londoners over a possible arrangement for the Gabonese.
They allegedly need the Gunners man on an underlying advance arrangement with a view to an extremely durable £20million switch in the late spring, would it be advisable for him he end up being a triumph for the Magpies.
It is not yet clear whether the north Londoners' progressive system would endorse such an arrangement yet obviously Pierre-emerick Aubameyang is right now not in the plans of Arteta.
He has effectively been deprived of the captaincy at the Emirates following a disciplinary issue, while he has been avoided with regard to the Gunners side for every one of the last five PL games – including the 2-1 home defeat of City on Saturday.
Pierre-emerick Aubameyang is likewise not set for a prompt re-visitation of the side having now gotten together with Gabon international team in Cameron in front of the current month's Africa Cup of Nations.
Talking before the loss to Cityzens, Mikel Arteta said: "For me it's really not necessary to focus on being correct or wrong it's tied in with settling on the choices that you accept are a result of what you're requesting that they do. As I said we'll go match by match.
"Right now he's gone. He really wants to zero in the team. We had the discussion that that was the most effective way to do it."
Aubameyang has been connected with an Arsenal exit but yet, it was an amazement to see the Gabonese sign another three-year deal in the late spring of 2020 for the Gunners – an agreement that actually has eighteen months left to run.
Following his fall out of favor at the Emirates, it showed up probable that the Gunners were setting out toward a comparative circumstance to that of Ozil, who additionally wrote another huge cash manage the north Londoners in 2018.
The Germany international then, at that point, persevered through a comparative inversion in fortunes at the Emirates prior to passing on the club on an extremely durable arrangement to join Fenerbahce – the north Londoners don't in the end getting anything for the German's administrations.
That circumstance looks set to be stayed away from in the midst of the Magpies' advantage in Pierre-emerick Aubameyang, notwithstanding, who will be confident of proceeding with his goalscoring structure at St James' Park should an arrangement be finished.
Up to this point this season, the Gabonese has hit seven goals in just 15 matches in all competitions played – yet having not tracked down the net in the PL since mid-October
That record would in any case put him in front of the Newcastle United's flow top scorer, Wilson, who has six goals to his name up to this point this season, with the previous Bournemouth man having harmed his hamstring in the Magpies' 1-1 draw with United on 27 December.

Hate Crimes and Speech Bill contradicts the constitution
South Africa has been ravaged by colonialism, apartheid and white supremacy for centuries. Universities and higher education were tools of white supremacy and exclusion during colonial and apartheid times, with universities and academics propagating racist and fanatic ideas and Eurocentric hegemony.
Sketch Draft Law on the Prevention and Combating of Hate Crimes and Speech, introduced in 2018, proposes to enable academics, academics and researchers in South Africa to promote racism and bigotry relentlessly. The bill describes hate speech as âa clear intention to⦠promote or propagate hatredâ based on race, gender, sexual orientation or other differences. The bill states that this definition – and its associated consequences – will not apply "if done in good faith as part of an engagement in … any academic or scientific investigation".
As stated in the bill, Article 16 of the South African constitution protects the right to freedom of expression. This includes âacademic freedom and the freedom of scientific researchâ. However, article 16 of the constitution adds that the right to freedom of expression does not extend to "the call to hatred based on race, ethnicity, sex or religion and which constitutes an incitement to harm â.
If the constitution does not grant researchers and academics the right to promote or propagate hatred based on race, sex, religion, ethnicity or anything else through academic work or engagement and academics, why does the hate crime and speech bill contradict the constitution and propose to protect academics and academics who propagate racist and fanatic ideas?
This exception will contribute to the abuse of academic freedom by some in academia in order to propagate hatred, prejudice, bigotry or the oppressive and racialized status quo.
Academic freedom cannot be used as an excuse to maintain coloniality, epistemic violence, and white supremacy. Racist and fanatical ideas have nowhere to be found in academic, scientific and academic engagement, and especially in a country like South Africa, where racism and white supremacy have left deep scars and inequalities. and structural injustices.
During colonialism and apartheid, the education system was "inherently ethnocentric and racist"in that he approached black people through a" deficit model "that saw them as backward, uncivilized, and in need of white protection and saving.
While promoting Western ideas and assumptions as "universal", the colonizers destroyed and "delegitimized other ways of knowing as savage, superstitious and primitive â. Colonial and apartheid regimes, aided by South African universities and much of the white universities, ensured that blacks received for centuries a "pure parody of education, designed to prepare black children for a perpetual serfdom as servants of their high and powerful white bosses and mistresses, âas Desmond Tutu pointed out in his book, No future without forgiveness.
Long after the end of apartheid, many South African scholars continue to argue that Western knowledge systems ""constitute the only basis for higher forms of thought â. At the same time, they consider ideas, theories and knowledge "produced from social / historical experiences and worldviews of [the African continent and] the Global South⦠as inferior and not forming part of the canon of thought â.
White supremacy, Eurocentric hegemony and the epistemic violence propagated in South African universities are rooted in the racialized logic that considers people outside the Western and colonial world, and in particular blacks on the African continent and in the Diaspora. , like uncivilized and inferior human beings. .
As underlined by the Kenyan writer Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o, the colonial and apartheid control of education aimed to establish "the psychic domination of the colonizer and the psychic submission of the colonized". Its epistemological paradigms, imposed by colonial racist oppression and apartheid and "established by epistemicide", continue to dominate university curricula and reflect on what constitutes knowledge.
Often times, the notion of academic freedom allows academia to continue with "business as usual" and propagate oppressive ideas, rhetoric and lies – and maintain the white agenda almost entirely.
It is nothing but the racism that follows centuries of white supremacist assumptions that whites are superior and blacks inferior. It is puzzling that in a society that continues to grapple with structural inequalities and injustices rooted in colonialism, apartheid and white supremacy, the bill seeks to enable the promotion and spread of the hate when done as part of an academic investigation.
What the Hate Crimes and Speech Bill proposes will legalize and allow racism and fanaticism as long as racists and fanatics can show that they are promoting and spreading hate speech "in good faith" (whatever that means). means) and as part of their academic research or engagement.
This comes at a time when South African universities should work hard to dismantle Eurocentric hegemony in higher education in order to radically rethinking the "legacy stories and cadres ârooted in the ideas, beliefs and colonial conquest of white supremacy.
Farhana Sultana points out that academic freedom is "founded on the principles of scientific rigor, which involves engaging in theories and methodologies and demonstrating the competence of the ideas that have been debated â.
Racism, on the other hand, is based on the long discredited and harmful ideas, beliefs and worldviews of white supremacy. Yet the hate crime and speech bill proposes to protect white supremacists, racists and other fanatics in academia.
Freedom of speech and expression, including academic freedom, can never be unconditional. The right to freedom of speech and expression ends – or should end – when someone else's human dignity is violated by expressing hateful ideas. Eusebius McKaiser notes that the judgment of âmoral violence of epistemic erasure which is inflicted daily on society in the South African academy under the guise of academic freedom âmust be a prerogative of university administrations.
One of the most important aspects of academic freedom today should be the "freedom to challenge racist ideas oppressive policies and practices through critical debate and dialogue â, instead of defending the racist and oppressive knowledge systems of colonization and apartheid and protecting their promoters.
Since the mission of universities and academics is to create new knowledge, it is of paramount importance to have a "multiplicity of voices, including those of intellectual dissidents" in higher education institutions, such as underlined by Adam Habib, Seán Morrow and Kristina Bentley. This allows for critical engagement and contestation of ideas in the quest for new paradigms, ideas, theories and knowledge.
However, while the freedom to challenge ideas is of the utmost importance to academics, researchers, and universities, white supremacy, racism, and other forms of bigotry have no place in the institutions of higher education and in academic books and journals.
Those who continue to maintain coloniality, Eurocentric hegemony and white supremacy cannot be considered mere âintellectual dissidentsâ. The spread of colonial and apartheid lies and white supremacist ideas in South Africa (and elsewhere) cannot be part of "ideological pluralism that promotes critical engagement â.
These ideas are an integral part of oppressive white supremacist systems and horrific crimes against humanity. Those who continue to vomit their racist ideas cannot be protected by the notion of academic freedom or by the Hate Crime and Speech Bill. There must be a line somewhere.
This is an edited version of an article first published by Africa is a country. Savo Heleto writes in his personal capacity and has submitted this article as a commentary on the Prevention and Combating Hate Crime and Hate Speech Bill to the South African Parliament.

Here's a fun little excerpt from Shell Game, where Sarah gets spanked and fucked.
Compared to being yanked across Michael's bare lap at six in the morning, Sarah's alarm clock wasn't nearly as bad.
She figured she'd be used to being punished early in the morning, but there she was again, upended, and he was already driving the back of the heavy wooden brush into the bottoms of her cheeks and she was already kicking and squirming and moaning and grabbing his leg, her nails digging in, gasping and trying to hold still and failing as the brush cracked and whacked and smacked, hard and fast, her heart pounding, sobs coming quickly, tears on their tail, as Sarah's master punished her for doing precisely what he'd asked her not to.
For the longest two minutes of her life.
Until the sound stopped and the pain sunk in and her ass was on fire and she slid to her knees in front of Michael and looked up at him through her tears, hands on his thighs, breath hitching as she sobbed.
"I'm s-s-sorry… Master, I'm sorry…"
He kept on that disappointed expression long enough to bring on a fresh wave of tears. Sarah's face went hot and she bowed her head, heart heavy, body wracked with pain. She'd rather have another two minutes with the brush than face a moment of her master's disapproval.
"I forgive you," he said a minute later. "I forgive you, Sarah."
In an instant she was up, scrambling into his lap, thighs spread across him, his cock hard and pushing at her cunt but she didn't care, she wanted to be held by him, to hold him, to cry for him and show him that she understood, that she'd displeased her master, that she loved him and wanted to be perfect for him–
His hand was on her face.
His lips were on her mouth.
Her body went slack atop his, shoving his cock downward as she took deep gulps of air, as Michael drew her down beside him and she draped her leg and her arm and half her body across his and he held her and kissed her tear-tracked cheeks and swollen eyes and told her he loved her.
"I love you, Master," Sarah said, her voice hoarse and soft. "I love you."
I wrote Shell Game back when I thought I wanted a 24/7 master/slave relationship, so that's what I gave my main characters. Reading it these days I cringe sometimes when Sarah calls Michael "Master". It just seems so… so silly. Which isn't fair at all; just because I don't want to be someone's master doesn't mean it's not a valid BDSM dynamic. I guess we all grow and change in different ways, though.

A family feud is brewing!
Samantha Markle is reportedly suing her half-sister Meghan Markle for defamation over the tell-all interview she and Prince Harry gave Oprah Winfrey in 2021.
According to People, Samantha claimed in court documents that Meghan lied about her and her family during the interview by making false and malicious statements.
Samantha says that Meghan didn't tell the truth about when they last saw each other, and also accuses her of falsely claiming to be an only child.
According to Page Six, the court filing revealed, "The defamatory implication is that Plaintiff had no relationship whatsoever with her sister Meghan, they were virtual strangers and that Plaintiff has created a lucrative career selling false stories to tabloids and television programs when she knows nothing about Defendant's childhood."
Samantha continued to accuse Meghan of bashing their father, Thomas Markle, in order to tell the world of a "rags-to-royalty" narrative about her life.
"Meghan falsely claimed that: (a) she essentially raised herself from virtual poverty [and] (b) she was forced from the age of 13 to work in a series of low-paying jobs to 'make ends meet," the complaint read.
Samantha also claims that Meghan published false statements in her New York Times best-selling book, Finding Freedom, which she says is "nothing more than a book of lies."
Samantha is requesting over $75,000 to cover damages, along with court and attorney fees.
Meghan's attorney, Michael Kump, said in a statement to TMZ, "This baseless and absurd lawsuit is just a continuation of a pattern of disturbing behavior. We will give it the minimum attention necessary, which is all it deserves."

It feels like quite some time ago that Paul George was the face of the Indiana Pacers, but in actuality, he was a Pacer up until the end of the 2017 season. It wasn't necessarily a shock to see him get traded to Oklahoma City during the summer of 2017, but there was a bit of mystery as to why he wanted out of Indiana.
George recently appeared on the Knucklhead podcast with Quentin Richardson and laid out why he eventually requested a trade.
He explained that the 'best power forward at the time' wanted to come join forces with him in Indiana in 2016, but the front office simply said that due to the Pacers being a small market team they couldn't afford the unnamed player. He took that as a sign that Indiana wasn't in the business of actually competing for a title.
"I had the best power forward at the time say he wanted to come to Indy and team up with me," George said. "They were like 'We are a small market, we can't do it. We can't afford it.' After that phone call, I called my agent and was like 'Man, get me up out of here. They don't want to win.'"
Paul George says he had at the time, the best PF in the NBA ready to team up with him in Indiana
"They didn't want to do it . . . I called my agent like, 'Man, get me up outta here. They don't want to win.'"

There's no denying that Indiana certainly falls into that 'small market team' bunch, but that doesn't mean Pacers fans will take this news very well.
As to who the unnamed power forward is, it could have very well been Blake Griffin or LaMarcus Aldridge.
It's interesting to think about how the landscape of the NBA would look if a big-time PF joined forces with George in Indiana.
