Mens Capilene 4 Expedition Weight Bottoms
Shopping Info
|Patagonia Men's Capilene 4 Expedition Weight Bottoms - Epic days call for the technical insulation of Capilene 4 Expedition Weight Bottoms from Patagonia. The warmest and most breathable baselayer in the Capilene family, Polartec Power Dry High Efficiency fabric feels soft and stretchy. Capilene 4's smooth jersey face glides beneath layers and the brushed fleece interior warms your core, wicks moisture, and rests smoothly against your skin. A gusseted crotch gives you full-range mobility, and the soft knit mesh interior of the elastic waistband means next-to-skin comfort. Gladiodor Odor Control helps you and your partners breathe a little easier. In cold conditions, Patagonia Capilene 4 Expedition Weight Bottoms keep your skin dry when you're pushing the pace and your core warm when the action slows down.
Sizing for the Patagonia Men's Capilene 4 Expedition Weight Bottoms:
Note - this garment has a Slim Fit: Closer-fitting technical garments may be worn over baselayers and light midlayers. All sizing is based on your body measurement. The garment is adjusted for intended fit and use.
I live in Mongolia, and while style is one of the top priorities, staying warm may be the utmost. The temperatures have only reached about -20F so far, but these pants have kept me warm on the walks to and from work/the store/friends' houses/etc. I wear them alone or under pants, and they are great. The waist is a bit high and a bit tight, but overall, the fit is great.

I thought I was going over the top when I ordered these as a snowboarding baselayer (I'm originally from Florida and get cold easily!), but they are actually perfect! The material is very easy to move in and stays dry, but has kept me very warm riding in everything from 30 degrees F to -15 degrees (bbbrrrrrrrr). The waistband is very comfortable too! I'm 5'5" and 130 lbs, the medium works for me but they are a little loose after the day is done.
Not bad as a base layer, but material is a bit see through, and doesn't have enough stretch to be completely comfortable. They' are warm enough for an average ski day/hiking under a good shell, but for sub-zero temps (F) I'd add a few extra layers. Also, I like my base layers to be stretch enough so that i forget I'm wearing them - these don't quite cut it.
I typically wear these bottoms for winter cycling down to -25C with absolute comfort. They've also been used for ice climbing and for walking my geriatric, jawless Pomeranian in bone-crushing cold. I was toasty, she was miserable. I find that the redesign in the new weight of the cap 4 makes way more sense than the old cap 4. No longer is the cap 4 a warmer layer than the R1, but it still slams you with warmth while providing a crazy level of breathability. 5 Hours ice climbing in -15C to -5C today and over a pair of simple guide pants, I wasn't cold nor was I sweaty. I was comfortable and didn't notice or need to think about my leggings. I've used Cap 1, 2, 3 and the old 4 and these new cap 4s make sense for "expedition weight" to me.

Trying to get into shape? Try Perry's 'Divergent' workout
Want to get your fitness on track, fast? Try J.J. Perry's mega-workout he created for the "Divergent" stars to tone their upper and lower bodies and boost core strength.
Or you can just steal a few moves if - unlike Woodley - you don't have to be filmed in spandex anytime soon, reports people.com.
Here is Perry's exercise regimen:
* Warm-Up
Jog. Start with 25 minutes on the treadmill at a slow, relaxed pace, just enough to get your heart rate up.
* Cardio
Jump rope: Start with 90 seconds of jumping, then rest for 30 seconds. Repeat the cycle four times. Work your way up to 4 minutes of jumping followed by 1-minute rest.
Box jumps: This CrossFit move means hopping up on a plyo box - its height is up to you - for 4 sets of 10 jumps.
* Calisthenics and Plyometric Drills
Single-leg balances: Stand on your right foot with your left knee bent at 90 degrees. Have a partner stand across from you with their hand extended at waist level. Quickly jump so your right knee touches their hand - while trying to keeping your left leg hovering - then land on your right foot again. Repeat 30 times on each leg.
Knee drives: Do this Muay Thai drill as quickly as possible; it should be an explosive movement. Crouch into a fighting stance (bouncy-knees, on your toes, with your right leg slightly behind you) and drive your right knee up to chest level; tap the toes back to the ground and do it again, 30 times on each side.
Burpees: A burpee is a compound bodyweight move where you stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, squat down to put your hands on the ground, kick your legs back into a plank, do a push-up, jump your legs forward, then jump upward with your arms reaching up. Start with however many burpees you can do before you collapse, and work your way up to three sets of 15.
Push-ups. Do 10 each of these three variations: standard push-ups, diamond push-ups (with your hands touching to form a diamond), and wide-arm push-ups. The close and wide stances help target different areas of the arms and chest.
Lunge kicks. Get into traditional lunge position (your left knee bent at a 90-degree angle, your right knee bent behind you). Then quickly stand up and kick your right leg out straight in front of you. Do 2 sets of 20 lunge kicks on each side to build leg strength.
* Abdominal Work
Planks: Hold yourself at the top of a push-up position for 1 minute, working up to 90 seconds. Repeat, this time supporting yourself with only your left arm, then again with only your right.
Cross-crunches: Lie on your back with your legs in tabletop (knees bent at 90 degrees), then twist up so your left elbow touches your right knee, then repeat on the other side. Do a total of 30.
Old-school sit-ups: Do 10 regular ones, 10 where you go halfway up, and 10 where you lower yourself halfway down. Finally, hold yourself halfway up for 10 seconds. "It should smell like barbecued abs because you've torched them so much," Perry says.

Great location and beautiful rooms. If you workout, you have access to a fantastic health club which next to the hotel.
The rooms were what I would expect for a hotel of this calipher. However, common areas such as the lobby were small and became crowded with guests checking in and out. I was disapointed with the level of service from the staff. I had a maid wake me up on a Saturday morning before 8 AM wanting to clean my room. I wasn't even checking out that day. It took a number of staff levels and a fair amount of my time to get that situation resolved to my satifaction.

Central location. Great view.
The staff kept hounding me for my "voucher." I explained that I booked through Kayak and there was no voucher. I showed them my receipt, emailed them the receipt twice and printed the receipt out and gave it to Laura on the second night of the stay. Then, when I check out, they ask me for the voucher again! I get back to the U.S. and get an email from them...wanting the voucher. I expect that they'll charge me twice for the room and I'll have to do a charge back through my credit card. The beds are not fit for human consumption. P.S. a "double" room does not mean two beds - it means that you get a room that does not have the toilet and shower completely open!? They charged us 40 euro/night for a roll-away.

Crazy rich guy attempts to legalize Ferrari FXX for the street
by Dan Roth (RSS feed) on Oct 30th, 2007 at 10:28AM
Hey, wait a minute – we thought you couldn't actually purchase the Ferrari FXX, let alone take one out to cavort on the streets of Switzerland. The way it was originally explained, people with 2.5 million dollars to dispose of could purchase the privelege to plant their hindquarters in the driver's seat for Maranello-sanctioned track events. You've got to have some serious juice to get an FXX to begin with, and then to get it legalized for use in Switzerland takes even more pull. When we say "crazy rich" we don't mean nutty with lots of money. "Crazy rich" in this instance means Scrooge... Read More

Coming to Awkward Stage this Saturday is a new exhibition of my work titled, "Objects of Note". The exhibition is a collection of my crazy inventions, all of which are more (and less) than they appear to be!
Opening reception:
Saturday, September 21, 6-9pm
Awkward Stage
Lakeshore Mews (Simcoe + Mulcaster), Barrie
On display September 19 to October 12, 2013, Wednesday to Saturday 10am to 5pm
Max Lupo's Objects of Note takes all of the things you never knew you wished you had, and puts them in one place. Are you your own worst enemy? Do you need a portable confidence booster? Or are you disturbingly lonely while sitting around the house? These, and many other essential human dilemmas can all be solved by an Object of Note!
The devices on view present themselves as an object waiting to be touched, and it is through the user's interaction that the limit of the device's functionality is revealed. Together the viewer and artist will find that what the objects purport to do is both a very real reality, and an obvious sham.
The above picture is a photograph of the Dial Me Story Phone, an invention making its premier at the exhibition. Are you coming? RSVP on Facebook! ALSO, all of these objects will be part an all night performance at this year's Art Ce Soir (September 28, beginning at 7:00, at Awkward Stage and Lakeshore Mews in Barrie).

Applicants for some jobs in Central Texas should think aquatic.
The Austin Parks and Recreation Department operates 34 public swimming pools but only about half opened as scheduled Friday, with more set to open Monday.
Park officials say recruiting efforts continue with a lifeguard job fair set for Tuesday. Banners touting the job opportunities were posted over the weekend at some of the closed pools.
The Austin City Council has extended the days and hours for some public swimming pools this summer, overall providing jobs for about 750 lifeguards.
A parks department spokesman did not immediately return messages Monday.

Eighteen people were arrested for allegedly running a prostitution and drug ring that marketed its services to visitors to the New York area for the Feb. 2 Super Bowl, the New York Attorney General said. The ring sold "party pack" packages of cocaine and prostitutes and is estimated to have generated millions of dollars in illegal proceeds, Attorney General Eric Schneiderman said today in a statement.

Charlie Gasparino: Beware The Wall Street Guy Who's Never Done A Hooker Or A Line Of CokeBy Bess Levin
"Drugs and personal excess will always be found on Wall Street (and in any profession that pays big bucks), but it's been my experience that fraudsters are more often family men like Bernie Madoff — guys who methodically steal tens of billions without screwing a single hooker or snorting a single line of coke." [NYP]
Selling Co-Op Bank Shares Before Coke-And-Meth Scandal Mere Happy Coincidence For Local Hedge FundBy Bess Levin
According to the Telegraph, Aurelius Capital Management struck a deal to sell its shares of Co-op Bank to Perry Capital just prior to the news that former chairman Paul Flowers enjoyed purchasing cocaine and crystal meth. In related news, Co-op has conceded that it's possible there is a connection between the fleeing of clients and the revelations. Read more »
Back of Tee: Consider Yourselves Cut!By Bess Levin
If "The Buy Side" is remembered for any single line, it will be the remark that Mr. Duff says he uttered one evening upon confronting a lengthy queue outside a downtown Manhattan nightclub. Barging past the bouncers, he announces: "I don't stand in lines. I snort them." He and his trading pals think the joke so hilarious that they later emblazon it on souvenir T-shirts. [NYT, earlier]
David Nutt, the former Government drugs tsar sacked after claiming that horse riding was as safe as taking ecstasy, has said that the banking crisis was caused by too many workers taking cocaine. Prof Nutt said that too many bankers who took the drug were "overconfident" and so "took more risks" and said that not only did it lead to the current crisis in this country, but also the 1995 collapse of Barings bank. He said cocaine was perfect for their "culture of excitement and drive and more and more and more", adding: "Bankers use cocaine and got us into this terrible mess. It is a 'more' drug." [Telegraph]

Claim: Sam Israel's Investors Gave Him Money Because They Liked Animal-Loving Cokeheads Who Looked Good In Women's Underwear And Cowboy BootsBy Bess Levin
Investors gave Bernie Madoff money because they trusted him. They gave Sam Israel money because they liked him—a gregarious, disarming goofball who, as a Wall Street apprentice, had invented an alter ego he called Captain Proton, a fearless superhero whose special powers were granted by vodka and cocaine. Now in his forties, he lived in a Westchester mansion, rented from Donald Trump for $22,000 a month, with an adjacent chapel in which he had built a replica of the Bayou trading floor alongside an 800-gallon saltwater fish tank and a menagerie of rare reptiles. He'd also installed a high-end studio for jam sessions, where he'd play with the Allman Brothers' drummer when the band was in town. He owned a fleet of Porsches and signed personal checks printed with the image of SpongeBob SquarePants…Once he'd welcomed his family home from a short trip standing in the driveway wearing cowboy boots, his wife's bikini underwear, a lacrosse helmet, swim goggles, a life jacket, and a cape, then started screaming at his wife when she didn't get the joke. [NYM, related]
Toying with the idea of cranking things up a notch at work with a few lines of blow before the open, exploring the affects of Ecstasy on your ability to trade, smoking enough meth to lose your teeth and/or saying fuck it on casual Fridays and rolling in wearing a button down with the sleeves pushed up displaying your track marks for all to see, thereby debunking the stereotype you're a yuppie asshole? You know we'll always support you in whatever you do but please strongly consider putting off all of the above until the Fall when you're less likely to die on the job. Read more »

100 books down…
Do any of you have any books like that that you would recommend?
Let's see… So Much More (Anna-Sophia and Elizabeth Botkin) was good! And you might have also heard of I Kissed Dating Goodbye (Josh Harris), which I really enjoyed, and Boy Meets Girl: Say Hello to Courtship (Josh Harris), which I am currently reading and love so far.
Hope you are encouraged by these books! :)
In Christ,
Ya know, I just read a newer book by Dannah Gresh called "What are you Waiting for?" and it was amazing! Really, it's a book I think just about everyone should read! So I certainly recommend that one ;) Also, I absolutely loved the book "Passion and Purity" by Elizabeth Elliot…such a wonderful book!
~Lauren :)
I would highly recommend any books by Eric and Leslie Ludy; Joshua Harris; Jamsine Baucham; Voddie Baucham; Janette Oke; Girls of Grace devotionals from: Point of Grace; Jennie Chancey and Stacy McDonald; Elizabeth George; Beautiful Girlhood; and I have heard wonderful things about So Much More by Anna Sofia and Elizabeth Botkin, but have not read it yet– hoping to soon though!! :)
You're list of books and authors sound really great!!
Hi Emily!
Lately I have been reading more than usual, and here are a few that have been immensely refreshing.
"If I Perish" is amazing. Amazing. I couldn't explain the book in words, but It is really good.
(click here.)
Also, any books by Darlene Deibler Rose. Wow. She was amazing, and it's as if you are there.
Are you ready for two more? "Gates of Splendor" by Elizabeth Elliot and "Rees Howells: Intercessor" by Norman Grubb are both amazing. Gates of Splendor gives a good biography of Jim Elliot and the other men, as well as the future woman's lives.
Rees Howells: Intercessor is also amazing. I'd say this has had one of the most profound impacts on my life…ever. Self Denial, and especially in the pleasures of this world, fasting, and prayer. And when you get done, you won't ever wonder why the Miracle of Dunkirk happened. You'll know exactly why, and the "why" of many other happenings during that war. I love biographies of great men and woman, missionary stories, and history. This was all combined in one, and this book was amazing.
Of course, Chuck Blacks (the kingdom series) and Martha Finley's (ORIGINAL) Elsie Dinsmore Series are always great reads.
(all can be found on Amazon…of course:)
And you also have this book long comment to read too.
haha! let me know if you look into any of these! or at least mention it in a post:)
I see Beverly Lewis on the list…. did you ever read the SummerHill Secrets books by her? They're awesome :) And also check out Treasures in the Snow and The Tanglewoods Secret, both by Patricia St. John.
I like the Tuesday Morning ones by Karen Kingsbury! They really helped me understand what happened on 9/11 as I was only 5 when it happened.
Congratulations on reaching yet another goal!
[...] grew teary eyed at how much Joelle had grown! I also took a week off from the computer. I read 100 books, and took Sarah's Senior portraits! Joelle lost yet another tooth, and it finally started to [...]

It's a dog's life…
Dictated by Marmite Malmsey
My life is complete…. Boiled eggs for breakfast this morning, a squishy cushion out in the sunshine, but with just enough shade nearby to cool off as needed. Large bowl of fresh, cold water, just close enough for me not to have to stretch too far and a convenient tickle behind the ears now and then from a (slightly daft if I'm honest!) owner who seems to adore me as she tells me so at every opportunity… oh what it is to be a pampered pooch…… did I say pooch? Actually what I meant to say was "Princess", "Diva", call me what you will, but don't call me a pooch, as I truly believe I am more human than a dog and I have the temperament and tantrums to prove it!
Seriously though, I have landed on my paws and cannot tell all my doggy readers how lucky I am to live with this lot… they are "barking" … in the nicest possible sense and love me no matter what naughty things I do.
However, I wasn't best pleased to hear one of my "human mamas" friends tell her that she didn't know how she managed with me as I was so full on and such high maintenance and worse than a toddler with the terrible two's…… as if that's not bad enough, my mama agreed with her and said I was indeed a handful and I did keep her very busy but I was worth it! Humph- I should think so too!
Anyway I will sulk for a little while and then when that grows tiresome I might stretch my legs and go ask for a bone, or a doggy ice cream, or a chewy or a tennis ball or ……another tickle behind the ears…mmmmm lovely!
Till next week
Happy sun bathing

Tantrums and the "Terrible Twos"………. Malmsey hits adolescence!
Whilst there is no denying that we all love, adore, cherish and completely dote on Malmsey, our 2 year old Boxer, she has recently celebrated her 2nd birthday and has hit adolescence with a whoosh!
She has always been a princess and a diva and completely runs the house and rules our lives, but since reaching two she has turned into an even more demanding diva and I feel like I have a temper tantrum throwing toddler in the house. She hates being left alone and so we have numerous friendly dog sitters who help on a rota basis so we can actually leave the house now and then and they too all adore her. However getting out of the house is a military operation as she clings onto any piece of clothing, arm, leg or handbag that she can get to grips with, even though she knows she won't be left alone.
Mostly she is simply adorable, lovely and a poppet, but now and then, she is at times petulant, demanding and if we don't all jump to her demands, she barks her annoyance at us until we comply… but of course she knows we all adore her and will do exactly as she wishes us too and indulge her every whim.
We walk her for hours a day, often on a couple of walks as she loves being out and about, but we simply cannot allow her to meet any other dogs as she thinks of herself as human and doesn't like her fellow doggy companions.. thus she never plays with other dogs, only with us… all in all in the 21 months we have had her she has bought us much joy, pleasure and love, but she is the most complex, complicated, stubborn and high maintenance dog we have ever owned and has completely taken over our lives. Who'd have thought a 2 year old Boxer could be so rewarding and so challenging every waking moment of the day!

Ooooops another trip to the vets with Marmite Malmsey
Dictated by Malmsey….
As regular readers of my blog will know, I have caused my "human" parents rather a lot of worry in terms of my heath since they had me. I recently turned two and on reflection it has certainly been a bit of a roller coaster in terms of my health in those years. The latest episode, which resulted in a trip to see a specialist vet, who was sooooo lovely, Jane Oatley, an expert Orthopaedic vet, who made me feel much better, was only in the past two weeks, when I hurt my front leg and became very lame- coupled with an already quite lame pair of back legs- I have fluid on my knees, apparently quite common in Boxer dogs; thus the resulting gait was very ungainly and I was very sore.
So I was whisked off to meet Jane and her healing expertise- of course with me it's never as easy as merely visiting a vet's practice – I have a phobia of other dogs. No matter what shape, size or make, I simply don't like them and become very frightened and worried around them, to the extent that I get quite bad tempered, which is a real departure from my usual good naturedness…. Thus with a waiting room full of other dogs and pups it's all a bit of a trauma for me and my "human" mummy to take me to the vets. However, eventually I was safely in the treatment room and Jane worked wonders on me. I had X-rays, not sure I like that bit as I had to be made to be sleepy and got all wobbly on my already wobbly legs and then I couldn't stay in the kennel bit with the other dogs, so I had to be carried to the car to wake up slowly and gently and then I slept all day- blissful!
Two weeks on and I am much, much better. I had to have 10 days of rest which was a trying time as I admit I did get a bit stir crazy and I didn't like the tablets I had to take, but the creamy cheese they tried to disguise them in was tasty… they think they fooled me but I knew they were in there! This past weekend I was able to go for a walk and it was super-duper to have some freedom again, albeit there were pesky dogs everywhere who wanted to play… they just don't seem to understand my Garboesque demeanour and simply won't leave me to play on my own… so I have to tell them off and then my "human" mama has to explain to their owners and they then stand about talking about me for what seems like an age, with their dogs and me at a sensible distance and then at last we can carry on with our walk and I can enjoy being a diva!
Till next time and my next adventures

Worrying Disease effecting Dogs in the New Forest
Our beloved dog Malmsey is walked on a daily basis in the New Forest which is on our doorstep- we are also fortunate to have the sea at the end of our road too and whilst she enjoys coastal walks, her favourite venue is the forest.
However, at present there is fear and worry in all dog owners' hearts- since the middle of 2013 and through to date, there have been at least twenty dog deaths due to an unknown disease, although it is suspected to be "Alabama Rot", which seems to be effecting dogs and causing their untimely deaths. It is a horrible feeling to take your dog for a walk in the forest but not be sure that the area you have chosen is safe… in fact day by day there seems to be more and more areas that are reporting a problem, so the "safe" areas are slowly shrinking and the choice of walks is diminishing.
But keeping it in perspective, there are hundreds of dogs walked in the forest on a daily basis and the New Forest is not the only effected area- the disease and its source is being investigated by a fantastic veterinary practice, Anderson Moores who treated Malmsey when she had the problem with her face when she was a pup and I cannot speak highly enough of Davinia, her partners and their team.
Thus we are still walking Malmsey in the forest but are also checking her paws, legs and face on a three times daily basis for any skin lesions, ulcerated areas or general areas of concern just in case… however I'm sure that all dog owner will rest easy when they have found the source, a solution and treatment and no more dogs have to die untimely.
Our sincerest wishes to those who have lost their beloved dogs- our hearts go out to you all.

"Marmite" Malmsey comments on the TV show, Dogs – their secret lives
Dictated by Malmsey
Firstly Happy New Year to all my doggy (and cat) friends and followers and to their owners too. I hope you all had a good NY celebrations; mine was interesting….. because I am unable to be left "home alone", I get very stressed and so prefer being with my "human" family, so they planned to take me with them to their NY celebrations which were at Hotel TerraVina, the hotel they own.
Well all in all it wasn't a great success as the private dining room we would normally eat in was booked for a party, the hotel was full and there was nowhere to settle me… they did try the car- as if I wanted to stay in there! However cosy and comfy it was with my bed and blankets, I'm hardly a car sort of dog! Thus I was "smuggled" into the hotel and my human "mama" looked after me rather than sit with guests at the table… to be honest I had quite a nice evening, albeit I was a little stroppy with everyone, but I would have preferred to be at home, cosy on the sofa…. I've added a photo of me on the sofa to prove the point that it's very comfy!
Anyhow, my point being about the story of NY eve is that I HATE being left at home alone and on the rare occasion they have left me (for only ½ hour to an hour maximum) and only on x3 occasions in nearly 2 years, I have ensured they won't leave me again by chewing door mats, eating shoes, chewing the chairs and all sorts… they realised I don't like being left and now I'm never left… I'm either with my "mama or papa" or my "nana and grandad" or Jim and Gwen, my friends (and the humans lovely friends) or a dog sitter… Lovely!
Last night I caught a TV show on Channel 4, Dogs their secret lives, (I quite like watching TV sometimes) http://www.channel4.com/programmes/dogs-their-secret-lives/episode-guide and it was fascinating. Mark Evans the vet and presenter obviously loves dogs and seems a very nice chap. The doctors from Bristol Uni were lovely and the dogs featured seemed a nice bunch… as you know I'm not keen on dogs, but it was sad to see so many of them getting stressed at being left at home……. thus a plea from one special, pampered dog to any owners reading this, please try not to leave us home alone and if you do have to, please make sure it's not for very long and we aren't stressed about it- you can train us to cope better with it if you really have to leave us!
In the meantime I do hope Mark Evans makes more TV shows about dogs as it was fascinating.

Marmite Malmsey marvels at Christmas preparations and enjoys all the fuss and frolics…..
Dictated by Malmsey
Last Christmas I was already living with the Basset family but I wasn't very old and frankly much of the excitement passed me by as I was very poorly with my various ailments, (all now thankfully much better)….. however, wowee, this year I am having soooooo much fun!
My "human mama" and Romané decorated an enormous tree on Sunday- it's in the middle of the lounge, close to my bed and when no one is looking and if I stretch, I can nibble at the bottom branches, but oh what fun I had on Sunday, getting under everyone's feet and generally causing mayhem- I pulled the branches one way and then the other in a tug of tree game, then when the baubles started to be hung I kept stealing them and playing with them all around the house and the long strands of tinsel stuff is great fun to run away with!
BUT! Even more special and so much more mischievous is attacking the presents. They are all beautifully wrapped and under the tree in whicker baskets, (which are also very nice to chew!) and when no one is looking I have been stealing the presents one by one to have a little chew- ohhhhhh it's just too tempting not to rip the paper off and I just can't resist, even though I do get told off, but they should know by now that NO just doesn't have much effect and I know they will forgive me all my naughtiness because they love me so much.
According to my "mama" my presents are all hidden as I cannot be trusted not to attack them and open them all before Xmas day- I am so excited at the thought of so many new toys and chews that Xmas cannot come quick enough and as a special treat my breakfast on the 25th will be scrambled eggs and smoked salmon, my absolute favourite meal…… with exception of rice, pasta and boiled eggs and soldiers, or toast and Marmite of course!
Well lots to do and still more presents to attack and "helpfully" unwrap…. To all my Malmsey friends, thanking you for reading my blog and adding your photos and comments and I do hope you all have a very waggy, happy and woofingly good Christmas and I will write again in the New Year.
Until 2014

What's all that noise??? Malmsey's not keen on the Big Bang!
Dictated by Malmsey
This is directed at all my fellow canine friends and all other animals that don't like this current time of year when there are constant bangs and beams of light streaking across the sky- fireworks are over rated in m y view.
Last night, 5th November, I was fast asleep, all curled up cosily on the sofa when BANG! I awoke with a start and did my duty running around the house growling and barking at the top of my voice to scare away the unwelcome.. what? Actually there was no one there and it was actually the noise of the fireworks outside that had woken me up. Well not to be outdone, I thus decided to sit and howl to try to match the crescendo of noise that was being made… I would have carried on for hours if it had not been form the humans telling me off for making such a noise- honestly what about the even louder noise outside?
Thus I have to confide in you all and categorically state that the noise doesn't frighten me… who me be a baby! But it does annoy me when I'm awoken with a jump and then can't get back to my sweet dreams so roll on next week when hopefully all the firework displays etc will be long gone and peace will reign once more.

Another tiring day at the "office"
Dictated by Malmsey
It's very tiring having to be a clever dog and write a blog each week… as you can see from a recent photo of me taken after another tiring day at the "office". It was nearly midnight and I was worn out from dictating my blog.
My week has been as fun filled as usual with plenty of muddy walks in the forest which is looking so lovely at the mo… I love the mud and the water but can't see the problem of getting really dirty and then sitting on the sofa! My human "mama" doesn't agree though!
I have been "Queen of the house" this week rather than merely the princess as Romané and my human "papa" have both been away on trips and I have been in charge of all the chairs, the sofa and if I can get away with it any spare beds too!
I'm looking forward to having them all home and so until then I will keep their chairs warm for them and ensure I am kept in chewies and treats by looking very sad and downhearted because they are not home with me and I am missing them both.

The highs and lows of being a "Princess" by Marmite Malmsey
Dictated by Malmsey
I am having to rest as I have hurt my hind leg…. I was running in the forest chasing a stick when I felt something wasn't quite right and then I had to limp the rest of the way, BUT every cloud has a silver lining and it meant I have had to see my favourite vet, Edward and he has been looking after me. I love seeing him, although I don't like meeting other dogs in his surgery and I admit I did behave rather badly and barked and growled at them all, so much so I was put into a separate room as I was being too naughty to stay in the main waiting room, but I'm sure Edward forgave me!
Thus I had to stay off my leg for a few days and rest…. Now I quite enjoyed that for all of a few hours but it's so unexciting not going for a walk and having new scents to explore so I must admit I did get a little "stir crazy" which convinced "the humans" to take me out for a gentle stroll and that was lovely. The legs getting better albeit a bit stiff now and then but don't tell anyone as I'm loving all the fuss and attention and the lifts up into the car and out again, the cuddles and the fuss- being a "princess" is really rather fun.

Dog Blogs and Useful sites for Doggy "parents"
This week in the main hotel blog I have written about other people's blogs and sites and I thought I would carry on the theme here this week too.
As the proud owner of an adorable Boxer dog… Malmsey prior to purchasing her I read as many books and websites as possible on the subject of Boxer dogs. We had had a dog previously, a lovely Boxer cross, Merlot, we are still unsure to this day what she was crossed with, possibly a Rhodesian Ridgeback, but we know for sure her mother was a Boxer as we met her. Thus I thought we knew what we were letting ourselves in for with a Boxer "proper"….. however, little did we know.
Alarm bells should have rung when every time I mentioned we were choosing a Boxer dog, people asked if we'd ever had a Boxer before as they are very particular. The breeder asked the very same question and told us in no uncertain terms that we had to read up about Boxers as much as possible and so it was that I registered with a site called, http://www.bedogsavvy.com/ and then within the site there is a list of many, many breeds and I click on the Boxer Savvy one regularly. Needless to say that over the 18 months that we have had Malmsey their advice ad information has proved to be very useful.
So too has the website of http://www.doglaw.co.uk/ which tells you all about the legal side of being a responsible dog owner. Another great site and great organization is Dogs Trust http://www.dogstrust.org.uk/ and worth knowing that if you become a member of Dogs Trust you automatically become entitled to 3rd party insurance for your pet which is peace of mind if they cause an accident or injure someone.
All in all there are sites out there for every possible doggy question, query and thought. I've swapped browsing fashion sites for pet sites and they are a great source of useful hints, tips and info.
On the subject of Malmsey… it was an emergency dash to Edward, the lovely vet this morning as she has injured her leg whilst running in the forest – thus it's now bed rest and pain killers and hopefully this will alleviate the problem and not make sedation and further exploration necessary…. Dear me there's always something to worry about with a beloved pet!
Till next week

Is Sarah Palin's Huge Book Advance Helping Her Sell Pie to Old People?
This should have been easy: Sarah Palin releases financial disclosure forms, world learns that she received a $1.25 million (!!) advance for her memoir, blogger Photoshops silly fake image of the memoir's cover, commenters respond with remarks like "Trig H. Christ, is that in American dollars?" and "not bad considering she did not even write this thing herself" and "whatevr you are just jelus Sarah Rulez."
Palin's report also lists her as owner of "Pie Spy LLC," described as a marketing business. It's referred to as "Services for the Elderly and Persons with Disabilities" in the state's corporation database. The address of the business is listed as the office of Palin's lawyer in Anchorage, Thomas Van Flein.
What the… "Pie Spy"? Marketing services? Elderly and disabled people?
You know, if this were coming from anyone else, I'd be wondering how it's possible to combine these things into a single concept that makes sense. But we're talking about Sarah Palin! Words simply lose all meaning whenever she enters the picture, which is why soft fusion blackboard pillow in the climbing chicken open green.

Chen Guangcheng Update
The Diplomat spoke with Michael Lieberman, a fellow at the Truman National Security Project, about the case of Chinese activist Chen Guangcheng. What is your sense of the situation overall? From what we can say now, this situation highlights, perhaps counterintuitively, the strong working relationship between U.S. and Chinese officials. This was the last thing either wanted in the midst of the Strategic and Economic Dialogue. Yet they were able to work quickly to resolve a situation that could have dragged on for months and seriously undermined other pressing issues between them

Eddie Cochran WeekendLin and John from Cheltenham won tickets for the Eddie Cochran Weekend at Chippenham in September 2002. This is an article they wrote for the newsletter.
Back in July, Dell received two tickets for the Eddie Cochran Rock'n'Roll Weekend in Chippenham, UK, kindly donated by the Eddie Cochran Appreciation Society, to be used as prizes in a competition. Although we live quite close to Chippenham, we had never been able to go to the Weekend. So when Dell posed the competition question "What was Eddie's full name", we wrote the answer on the bottom of one of our faxes to the show, and pressed "Send". We didn't think we had much chance, because there must be hundreds of listeners that would like to go, and we forgot about it. Then one Friday, we heard Dell ask John Fisher to pick out a winner, and it was us!! Amazing!!
Chippenham is a small market town in North Wiltshire, UK, which lies on the banks of the River Avon. The town centre is traffic-free, unlike that tragic day 42 years ago when the main Bristol to London road ran through the middle of the town. The site of the accident which killed Eddie is not far from the town centre, and all weekend there was a small trickle of visitors to the memorial monument. The festival runs for three days, and it's held in the Olympiad Leisure Centre, which is in a lovely setting with a view over a bend in the river towards the town.
The entertainment started on Friday evening, this year featuring the Hell Raisers, The House Rockers, the Rapiers, and Jet Harris. The main event was on Saturday, with Rocky Burnette, Bobby Cochran, Scotty Moore, the Big Bopper Junior, Darrel Higham and the Enforcers, the Alabama Slammers, Rockin' The Joint, the Corsairs, and the Drugstore Cowboys. Sunday had just one band, the High Flyers, and was a day for socialising, remembering and recovering! There's also Car and Bike cruises through the town on the Saturday and Sunday, and there was a funfair nearby. Something for everyone.
Friday 27th of September arrived, and we set off for a leisurely drive to Chippenham. We arrived very early, but the organisers were happy for us to go in, and we watched Jet Harris and the Rapiers doing their sound checks: it sounded good. There was one stall set up, selling clothes and memorabilia, and we had chance to have a good look around. While we were there Jet and his wife also came to look round. We got chatting, what a nice couple. Lin spotted a drape jacket that fitted me, and Jet's wife helped her decide that we were buying it. An hour before the start, and already I had to go to find a cash machine! While I was walking through the town it struck me how friendly the local people were, several said 'Hi, enjoy the Festival'.
Once our purchases had been safely stowed away in the car, things were starting to happen in the dance hall. People were arriving, a few faces we recognised, then John from Birmingham stuck his head round the door. Lin was happy, at least one good dancer to keep her busy! Then Doreen from Gloucester came in 'What are you doing here' she said! (silly question!) Lin and Doreen had bumped into each other in Cheltenham just the day before, but hadn't mentioned the festival. A few more people we knew from Gloucester arrived and came to sit with us, the hall was starting to fill. 'Birmingham' John soon had Lin dancing, first up as usual, and the evening was under way.
Soon the first band were on, the Hell Raisers. This band was specially formed for the Festival, though the band members were all experienced musicians from the Derby area. They played Rockabilly standards, very fast!. They were good, and were well received, but several people said it was a shame there wasn't a chance to dance. They were followed by the House Rockers. These guys were also playing rockabilly, some self-written. They aim to be an authentic band, even down to the equipment they use, which was all original 50's kit.
Then the Rapiers. We'd heard Colin Pryce-Jones, the lead guitarist, chatting with Dell on Good Rockin' Tonight a few weeks before, and he talked about how they strive to reproduce a Shadows show as they were at the peak. I was lucky enough to see the Shadows in the early 60's and they took me right back to my youth. It was good to see the Mayor of Chippenham in the audience, also enjoying a trip back in time. The festival receives a lot of support from the town and the local district council. The Rapiers played many Shadows standards, but after a few numbers Wayne, the rhythm guitarist, broke a string and went off the stage to change it. They carried on for a few numbers as a three-piece, but when Wayne didn't re-appear, Colin started to get worried, then a message came through that Wayne was locked out of the dressing-room!! Unfortunately the flow of their show had been destroyed, so when he did eventually re-appear, they decided to bring on Jet Harris straight away.
Jet came on with his trademark six-string bass and they played all of Jet's hits, some more Shadows, and some others like Duane Eddy. They were also joined by the legendary Cliff Hall on keyboards, another ex-Shadow. There was some interesting chat about the old days in between numbers, and a few jokes. A great show. They were, of course, dragged back for several encores, finishing with F.B.I. and Jet managed the high kicks perfectly! A great night, and that was only the start of the weekend.
Next morning we were up early, determined not to miss any of the action. We got to the Olympiad Centre early again, but today was a lot busier. There were Chevvies, Cadillacs, Harleys, Triumphs and BSA's, and Rockers everywhere. The town was completely taken over by the Rockin' fraternity, and again everyone was so friendly. When we finally got into the Centre, the hall that had hosted last night's dance was now full of stalls. Records, CD's, Clothes, Shoes, Memorabilia, it was all there. In the corner was our mate Phil from Gloucester with his Crazy Cavern clothes stall. Phil spotted us, and the jokes started, most of them un-printable! We spotted some more friends, Jenny and Gary, and Pat and Derek, and also, in the distance, Maggie and Tel of Maggie's Blue Suede News. We wanted to catch up with Maggie later to say Hi, and thank her and Tel for taking the trouble to visit Radio Caroline. Unfortunately we didn't see them again!
The first priority that morning was to put out 'Good Rockin' Tonight on Radio Caroline' flyers on all the tables. Hopefully we'll get a few new listeners for the show, We hope they ring in to Roy on a Friday night, and mention that they found out about the show from the flyer. Next, we had to search out John Knight, the chap who sent our tickets to Dell, and say thanks for everything. We also bumped into Geoff Barker, who was compering the whole weekend.
Many years ago, Geoff presented a brilliant Rock'n'Roll programme on our local radio station, and we used to fax into his programme with requests. Geoff was the guy who first got us involved in the Rock'n'Roll scene, because he plugged a local gig where Darrel Higham and the Enforcers were playing. He also told us that we could get Darrel's CD's from Nervous Records. When Lin rang Nervous, she found herself talking to Roy Williams and had a long and very interesting conversation in which he played most of Darrel's CD's down the phone, and also told us about Good Rockin' Tonight on the old Country Music Radio. And the rest, as they say, is history!! Geoff is now presenting a Rock'n'Roll programme on BBC Radio Wiltshire on Sunday afternoons, which he did live from the Festival on the Sunday.
The main hall for Saturday's show was designed as a sports hall, with tiered seating opposite the stage. There was good lighting on the large raised stage, and a good PA system. There was a large dance floor, and plenty of tables and chairs on the floor, with lots of room between them. The DJ for Saturday's show was Wildcat Pete, and he was already doing a great job, playing a wide selection to get everyone in the mood. Unlike some sports halls, the acoustics were quite good. There was also a good restaurant upstairs, which was serving hot meals and snacks most of the time.
We didn't see very much of the first three bands, the Drugstore Cowboys, the Corsairs, and Rockin' The Joint. What we saw was too fast for dancing, so we took the chance to look around and catch up with old friends. We also bumped into Darrel Higham by the record stalls, with Mick Wigfall and Rob Tyler, the Enforcers. Darrel signed a copy of the book 'Don't Forget Me' which he wrote with Julie Mundy about Eddie's life story, and also flogged us a copy of his latest CD 'The Sweet Georgia Brown Sessions'.
Back in the hall again in time to see Rebel Dean, doing a tribute to Eddie. Rebel is currently touring in the 'Rockin' on Heavens Door' stage show, which will soon be going into London's West End. He gave us a good impression of what an Eddie Cochran show must have been like over 40 years ago.
Next on stage was the Bobby Cochran band. Bobby is Eddie's nephew, but of course he is a great guitarist in his own right, and has played with many bands, including Steppenwolf. Bobby would normally have been playing much later on the bill, but he had another show to do later that night over 100 miles away! He gave us some of his uncle's hits of course, and also some later rock music, finishing with a wild version of 'Born To Be Wild'. This break from the standard Rock'n'roll/Rockabilly menu was a refreshing change, which was very well received.
Wildcat Pete kept the dancers on the floor during the intervals, with a wide selection of music for all tastes. But soon he gave way for the next act, Darrel Higham and the Enforcers. They gave us a blistering set of Eddie's songs interspersed with other favourites. As always Darrel's playing was incredible, but this time his guitar sound had a wonderful 'growling' quality we'd not heard before, whether it was his new space-age amplifier or a new guitar, we don't know.
This was the first time we'd seen Rob Tyler as drummer with the Enforcers, and his solid beat enhances their sound. Mick Wigfall gave his bass a pounding, and considering it's held together with large amounts of sticky tape, it's a miracle it manages to stay in one piece!
Next on stage was the Big Bopper Junior, backed by the Alabama Slammers. He was born just three months after his father died in the plane crash with Buddy Holly and Richie Valens. He performed all his fathers hits, such as Chantilly Lace, the Big Boppers Wedding, and White Lightning, and also some songs that his father wrote for others, such as Johnny Preston's hit Running Bear. A great show.
The next interval was longer than normal, due to technical problems, but Wildcat Pete kept things rocking. But soon Scotty Moore was on stage with his band performing, of course, mainly early Elvis material. The singer was Paul Ansell (Number Nine) who'd flown in from Germany earlier that day to join them. Although Paul wasn't trying in any way to mimic Elvis, the whole sound was uncannily like those early Elvis records.
The last act for the evening was Rocky Burnette, with Darrel and the Enforcers again. Rocky (Johnny Burnette's son) and Darrel performed many of his father's songs, as they have done on their CD, Hip Shakin' Baby. Towards the end of the set they were joined by Paul Ansell on stage, and the Olympiad Centre rocked on into the early hours.
Sunday morning dawned bright, and we set off early so that we could visit the Memorial at Rowden Hill, where the tragic accident happened, and to see the classic car cruise scheduled for Sunday morning. Unfortunately our car broke down on the way, and we had to call out the breakdown service and return home. We'd been looking forward to the Sunday show very much, but it wasn't to be.
We enjoyed the weekend very much, and we'd like to thank lots of people for allowing us to go. Dell, Roy, and John Fisher, of course, for running the competition and picking us out. The Eddie Cochran Appreciation Society, and John Knight in particular, for sending Dell the tickets, and for the enormous effort that must have gone into the organisation of the Festival. The local councils, the Olympiad Centre, and the townspeople, for making everyone so welcome. And of course all the bands and artists, the DJ's Wildcat Pete and Rich Marsh, and Geoff Barker for all the entertainment. Thanks everyone.

"Everyone makes choices in life.
Some bad, some good—it's called living"
Maria V. Snyder
Living is a risk.
Make the decision to put yourself out there and live.
You'll make mistakes.
You'll slip and fall.
But you'll also learn and grow.
You'll discover yourself and find your way.
Without taking risks, you live a half-life.
It takes stepping out of our comfort zones to overcome our fears and access our innate human potential.
Don't settle for less than you deserve.
Dare to try something new.
Take the unknown road.
I am such a Mulder-Scully shipper. I love them so much, because they never overdo their relationship. And because they truly are on a life journey together, searching for truth and something that's missing inside of them.
"You saved me! As difficult and as frustrating as it's been sometimes, your goddamned strict rationalism and science have saved me a thousand times over! You've kept me honest … you've made me a whole person. I owe you everything … Scully, and you owe me nothing. I don't know if I wanna do this alone… I don't even know if I can … and if I quit now, they win." -Fox Mulder
I'm not super hot or gorgeous… I don't have an amazing figure or a flat stomach… I'm far from being considered a model, but I'm me… I eat junk food, love to wear my PJ's, and will go without makeup… I'm random and crazy and I don't pretend to be someone I'm not… I am who I am, love me or not, I won't change me!!!! Repost this if you're a girl and you agree!!

The Real Housewives of Atlanta star Porsha Williams will face criminal charges following her reunion show scuffle with Kenya Moore, according to reports.
There is currently a warrant out for her arrest.
The Porsha Williams-Kenya Moore fight on the set of the show's Season 6 reunion taping became a big story long before it made it to air (see promo above).
That's because it was bad enough that Kenya called 911 afterward. Porsha allegedly flew off the handle and beat down Kenya, who filed an official report.
Bravo has the footage - what you see in this Real Housewives of Atlanta reunion sneak peek is nothing - and that was enough for a battery charge.
Hence the warrant for a misdemeanor.
Porsha's lawyer, Joe Habachy, says the reality star will surrender Thursday, but that Porsha plans to go after Kenya Moore in response to the charge.

Although elements in this first entry in the Shadowstorm series are faintly reminiscent of the works of Masamune Shirow, the narrative here is long on action and very short on plausibility or logic. This cyberpunk alternate-history thriller doesn't deliver, lacking worldbuilding and plotting.
In a world where Nazi Germany prevailed, modern Earth is divided between two shaky alliances: the United States and Germany on one side and the Soviets and China on the other. Alix Nico is one of America's hyper-advanced cyborgs, an eager player in the violent games between the Great Powers. The revelation that Alix's father, thought long dead, might still be alive catapults Alix and her colleagues on an adventure that will take them deep into enemy territory. Danger mounts as this operation pits her against the enigmatic leader of the Blades of Persia, a man known only as Winter. (DEL REY, Sep., 368 pp., $9.99)

Your posts are awesome and represents your true feelings. Keep it up and I would love to wait for another post.
Philosophizing at 2 am
There's something about writing a post at 2 am in the morning after being just a little bit off the rocker. With a gorgeous city view from my window and some rebel in my system - here it is. No, this is not a depressing entry about life. 2 am can be a time for inspiration!
The human touch is so much about the simple things. Telling someone you miss them or you were a good friend and helped them through something difficult, or cooking together or sharing a laugh together - anything, simple things that make us smile get us through our days and our months and our years. If you take into account all the simple small things that make you smile - it's not so bad after all. When I go back and forth between home in Canada to home in the Caribbean - it's a complete 360 - the weather, the people, the accents, the customer service for goodness sakes! It's like - what the heck just happened and where am I? I get used to one place and then shift to another - get used to that place and then have to shift to another. It's a little irritating since I associate one home with vacation and one with studying. Where my heart lies, it's kind of obvious.
And so I come to realize- I don't really know why I'm writing this post, but I am. At 2.30 am now, I am happy. I know that I will wake up in a few hours for the reality to hit me that I am leaving home again - to realize that my worlds will change again, one more time. Goodness! I need the strength to know how it's like to sit in front of a computer and study 24/7 again!
So to all those travelling away from home in time for school/work/co-op/other occupations, I salute you.
Until then - goodnight and I bid y'all adieu!
The rainy heart
When stars fall, their shine is lost, and from a distance, the music starts to sound faint. The air becomes still.
A lotta love to give, a lotta love to learn. The heart melts into a soft puddle, painted with all the colours of the rainbow. The colours beat with the rhythm of the heart. Then comes the rain, like a dark knight hovering overhead, covering the reflection of the skies…it cleanses. It cleanses what was there, to make things pure again.
You reach out to the surface, but you only grab air — empty, devoid of the opacity of the heart. And yet you breathe.. because you must. You must survive, you must move on.
— Vrishali Suman
Chocolatey smiles
Frustrated with the amount of words on each powerpoint slide about autoimmunities and immunodeficiencies that I needed to shove into my brain, I thought of derailing for a bit. Just a few things I thought of that made me smile and regain some of my sanity. Eh, the moment called for it, and so I shall share.
Sitting on a ledge facing the ocean. Ice-cream. With bananas, strawberries, and chocolate syrup. That breathtaking sunset beaming over the ocean. With those you can call my own - creating a silhouette against the background. Clouds taking shapes — a horse, a whale, a frying pan. A genuine smile from a stranger. A shoulder to cry on. Dancing in your room with all the moves in your 'repertoire'. Laughing about dumb things and internet memes till 2 am with the roommate. Stealing chocolate off of the best friend. Going online to find the friend you always end up having endless conversations with. Not realizing and putting the wrong words to a song but singing like it's the real thing. Opening the fridge to find edible things at 3 am! Waking up to warmth, comfort, familiarity… right next to you. Innocent laughter. Brief cool breeze on a ridiculously hot day.
Pause. Smile. Because maybe it's these small things that made your heart feel…just a little warm.
If you haven't already, I'd suggest you take a few minutes to check this website out. It's bound to give you a little something to smile about: http://1000awesomethings.com/
srisarts said: Hey Vrish :) You should do a blog post on the pros and cons of completely relocating. It would be good insight for those of us who live at home! Keep up the awesome blog!
That is an amazing idea. As per your request, a post on that will be coming up very soon :)
Coffee shop – one of my favourite places to be. There are about 20 people here at a time. Each of them probably opened and closed the door twice (on their way in and then out). That makes it about 40 times within the first 20 minutes itself for that door to have experienced any kind of motion. There are people going in and out almost every 5 minutes. Imagine the number of times that door must have opened or closed.
I sit here in the coffee shop with my laptop, staring at lecture slides, eating a very filling chicken sandwich. My head is processing immunology, along with the fresh smell of coffee, the sound of the wonderful coffee and latte makers, the relaxing lounge music in the background, the million voices and whispers all around me. Other people with their own laptops, notebooks, and conversations. There's someone anxiously staring at the door waiting for someone. Someone is lost in his own thoughts, mumbling to himself, perhaps about what he is to write next in his notebook. Someone staring blankly at the menu on the wall of the shop, trying to make a tough decision between that latte and mocha. Gosh, I know how that feels. Some sigh, some smile, some frown, just for a little while.
Everyone has a story. That's why I love coffee shops. When that door opens and closes, the wind that follows brings these people's stories to life, like a bunch of colours put on canvas creating a beautiful painting.
Cheers to having a good cup of coffee to start the day :)
INCREDIBLE poem. Great start to the blog Vrishali, this is awesome :D
The heart wants to speak. Murmurs. Breathe some life into it and it talks. Hurt by loneliness. Flutters when happy. Its partner, the head, seems to have its own mind. Running in opposite directions, the heart and the mind fight to find middle ground. Desires and dreams, fire and streams. You want some light in the darkness. Reach out and ask the atmosphere to guide you in your wonder – and so you see tons, hear nothing, and learn some. Like the first time you learn to swim. Fighting fears and learning to love the waters. Once you do, it carries you in your quest. So how do you find your answer? A clue in the sand or some light shining through the surface lighting up that beautiful world that lies within you.
— Albus Dumbledore
