Blow Up at F2OY-X August 4, 2014Posted by Wilhelm Arcturus in entertainment, EVE Online, Null Sec.

I was a bit disappointed on Saturday. There were a couple of strat ops planned, but they were both during time frames where I was not going to be able to come along. I like strat ops because they tend to be based on timers or some other event that forces both sides to show up. And they tend to be focused on a specific mission beyond shooting whoever we can find.
But as I was poking around early Saturday afternoon, an op came up in Jabber asking people to get in fleet fast for action in F2OY-X.
That sounded like my kind of deal. A fight in our staging system meant no travel. Of course, it was likely to be a chimera, the possibility of a fight that would never materialize. But I was sitting around and I wasn't going to be around for the later strat op, so I jump into the game. I would get a participation link for showing up at least.
But on getting into the game, a fight looked more than likely. There were over a thousand people in the system, TiDi was already starting to hit hard, and even as I got into Reagalan's Baltec fleet he was telling us to undock and align. It was time to go, so I got my Apocalypse pointed in the right direction and went.
There were warp disruption bubbles of one flavor or another all over space within sight of the station. We actually had to warp to a mid point to get around some to drop in on the fight. Along the way, we passed within sight, if not range, of a TEST pilot who wanted us to be sure of who to shoot.
We slowly made our way to the engagement, tidi dipping to 10% already and, on arriving, started shooting the targets called. Initially we did not have much success. A later count showed that the hostiles brought a lot of logistics with their Tengu fleet, so were catching sufficient reps when targeted to shrug off our fire. Remote reps have come up as part of the larger "fix null sec" thread of posts that has been banging about the EVE Online world. You only get kills if you can out-damage the remote repair abilities of your foes. So the game becomes "bring more dudes" while your FC yells at you to get into a logistics ship. More reps means life, so nerfing reps is now being discussed.
Logistics become a lynchpin in engagements. You keep your logistics alive, which tend to be easier to kill than your ships of the line, by having your logistics anchor keep as far off on the other side of the fight from your foes as possible. Out of range means being safe.
Fortunately for us, the reach of Baltec fleet is pretty far. An Apoc with range scipts and the right crystals can reach out and hit things as far as 150km off if you have the right skills trained. Not that we needed that. Their logistics seemed to be close to hand, within the range of our short-to-medium range ammo. So Reagalan had us swap to targeting their logistics. That worked and we started getting kills, breaking Scimitar tanks one by one.
That was an investment into the future of the fight. However, killing logistics now leaves all the hostile firepower still on hand to shoot at you. We had enough logistics for the fleet, so long as you paid attention and clicked the "need armor" button as the hostiles were just starting to target you. That is indicated by the yellow boxes around ships in your overview. I was not paying close enough attention and only hit the button when I noticed those yellow boxes starting to turn red, which means that you are now being shot at.
Soon I was floating around in a pod. But first I got to see my ship explode in slow motion. The tidi was bad enough… it had clearly pushed beyond the level that was showing as the backend systems struggled to keep up with things running at one tenth speed… that my ship was gone as far as my controls were concerned a good 30 seconds before it actually exploded on screen.
Then I was sort of stuck. There were layers and layers of warp disruption bubbles to fly through so I would be clear to warp back to the station and re-ship. I took that time to go through the contracts, pick out, and purchase a new Apocalypse. Reagalan was cajoling us to return in Celestises in order to sensor damp the hostiles, as not being able to target and shoot things apparently induces rage in our foes, but those had all been bought out. So it was back to a big ship.
Pods move slowly, put-putting along at 187 meters a second, made all the more slow by tidi inflicting is penalty. Eventually though I wandered out into open space and was able to warp back to the station. Docking and reshipping went very quickly given the TiDi situation, and I even remembered to check the fitting to make sure the guns were online before I undocked. They were not. Ships on contract sometimes get fit by an alt that cannot use all the modules, so they are with the ship but offline. It is embarrassing to be in a hurry only to get undocked and find you can't actually shoot anything.
Then it was time to find my own way back to the fleet, which meant finding a wreck or something to warp to, since the direct route from the station was still blocked by bubbles.
I got back in time to see the end of the initial engagement. The long range ammo was out now and we were taking shots beyond the 100km mark as the hostiles headed away from us. The last kill we got there was Doombunny. As the hostiles began to fall out of range, Reagalan warped us off to the staging POS to regroup. There we were joined by one of the hostiles.
I am not sure how this happened, but one of the enemy Scimitars warped to the POS with us, getting stuck outside the shields.
Of course, we were all "Shoot her, shoot her!" but were, for the most part, stuck inside the POS shields and unable to target or shoot. So we started to burn out of the POS towards her. Those who had forgotten to enter the POS password (I do not remember entering it myself, but somehow I landed at the tower) and were bouncing off the shield got a quick kill before we could get there.
We then warped onto the enemy Tengus again and were able to bubble them up and start shooting. By this point their logistics had been pared down so that we were able to alpha Tengus off the field fairly regularly. It became a race to lock up hostiles before they disappeared and the targets called quickly stretched out into a long list. And then they were off again. We warped around a bit trying to catch them, ending up hanging around on the 1DH gate for a while. But that was the end of things for us.
Return, getting a warp in, more shooting. Warping about, catching some more. Warp back to POS, scimitar joins us. Hanging on gate, no joy. The action was over for us.
The fight itself seemed to develop as a slow boil on our side of things. Black Legion, Northern Coalition, and their allies dropped in and established an early dominance with a mass of tengus, which cost use a lot of losses amongst those who came out to meet them at the start of the fight. There was a point where they were "winning" for whatever definition you choose, and if they had been able to extract at that point, they could have made the case for victory. At the end of the first round, Reagalan seemed pessimistic about how we were doing, hoping for a draw on the ISK war after we were mauled early on.
But rather than leaving the hostiles lit cynos and jumped people in as the CFC pot came to a boil. As things moved on the pings for fleets built up on our side, filling out the Harpy fleet and then bringing out a wrecking ball of carriers deploying even as the rest of us were reshipping and returning to the fight. We were fighting right there in our home system, so people logging on had no problem jumping on. The end result of the battle shows things tilted very much in our favor.
Total kills were close, with 358 kills for our side against 315 for the hostiles. But the ISK war fell heavily in our favor, as we lost 16.5 billion ISK in ships to their loss of 37 billion.
We lost a lot of inexpensive ships. If you look at the ships engaged, there are a lot of dead interdictors and Celestises and tier 1 logistics listed for us, all pretty cheap as far as things go, while the hostiles lost mostly Scimitars, Tengus, and Huggins. Those are pricey.
The fight ended up about two hours before the start op I was going to miss, but I had gotten my share of internet spaceship kills for the day, so was satisfied to leave that to others. It was certainly better than the fleet op on Sunday where we flew out to Aridia through a mess of TiDi only to arrive at a fight that had just ended. Pandemic Legion invited us out to help, but I wonder if they just wanted to inflict pain on us as we took 16 very slow gates out to Soliara and then 16 back home again.
There is a write up of the larger, strategic view of the fight at F2OY-X over at TMC. which answers the whole "so how did this happen?" aspect of things.
And naturally, I have some screen shots from the fight after the cut.
Fresh Out of Ruptures July 16, 2014Posted by Wilhelm Arcturus in entertainment, EVE Online, Null Sec.

Bombs and smart bombs are becoming a theme for me in Delve.
The other day our Harpy fleet got caught on a jump bridge, bubbled, and smart bombed into pieces. That is apparently a known Pasta tactic. The warp disruption bubble disables the jump bridge so the fleet landing on it is stuck there as soon as the bubble goes up. And then the battleships drop in and start smart bombing the the knowledge that they can survive while their frigate foes will likely perish before they can retaliate. We were probably lucky to kill a couple during that run.
Last night was a whole lot worse.
There was a call up on Jabber for a short duration fleet to take care of some hostiles sitting in our staging system, F2OY-X. The fleet was going to be either Ruptures or Harpies depending on how many people showed up. Asher Elias was the FC and he had a plan.
The numbers appeared to dictate Ruptures. I had two docked up in the station. There was a change to the fitting requested and some special ammo to be purchased. This was going to enable us to kill some bombers that were running about the system.
We undocked and got ourselves together. We didn't have enough logistics, not that it would matter in the end, but the FC spent some time trying to get people to switch. I nearly did… I bought a Scythe on contract… but really wanted to shoot something. I had never flown a Rupture before, so it was a new thing.
After some moving about the FC got us lined up on towards the 1DH gate. There was a Caracal fleet there acting as bait. We knew it was bait. The FC told us it was bait. The moment we landed within range to shoot them, we would get bombed. Our goal, with each Rupture fit with a sensor booster in place of a hardener, was to shoot the bombers as they came in for their run.
The fleet warped into range of the Caracals, which just hung about ignored by us. Then bombers landed and launched their bombs which hit us square on as we were locking up and firing. I think we got two. Our fleet, however, was ravaged. My Rupture was gone. The logis, flying off to one side as they should, survived, and a few of the Ruptures made it, but it was a bad exchange for us.
Worst of all though was the fact that I didn't get a good screen shot of all those bombs going off. It was seriously beautiful, but in my haste to get the shot I hit the escape key rather than they key I have mapped to turn off the UI and snap a screen shot. I'd lose a couple of ships for a good screen shot most days of the week, but this time it was a bust.
Those of us who lost ships warped back to the station. Podding people did not appear to be on the agenda, which was fine with me. My clone costs almost as much as a Rupture.
However, the station was out of sensor boosters this time around, so we went with the stock Gamma Fleet Rupture fit. I bought some more of the special bomber hunting ammo and undocked to join the fleet. There was some carping about a participation link at this point, people having lost ships, but the FC was disinclined to generate one so soon into the op.
At this point there was talk of running out to fight Brave Newbies. Then the word came down that a Brave Newbie Drake fleet was in the area. That sounded like an ideal target and there was much enthusiasm for shooting them. But first we were going to take another run at the bombers in system. The bait was now on the station undock, so the FC maneuvered us around to get us lined up to warp in at just the right spot. That set, he warped us in with essentially the same plan; shoot bombers as they dropped from warp to launch. However, we were not exactly in the right spot and, I swear on this, the last order I heard before the bombers hit was, "Prop mods on!" to speed us up a bit to get us in position.
Of course, that just meant most of us had our microwarp drives on when the bombers hit, boosting our signature radius and making us all the more vulnerable to the incoming bombs.
The Scythes were well positioned again… hail to the logi anchor for being on the ball… but many Ruptures went "Boom!" all to quickly for logi to save us.
We got our participation link after that.
Ruptures are supposed to be cheap, expendable brawlers to jump in en masse, so losing a couple wasn't a big dent to the wallet, but I'd still like to get on a kill mail before one explodes.
I made it back to the station. There was some talk about what to do next. Ruptures were momentarily out of stock in the system. I decided to call it a night at that point. I had started a bit late for a work night in any case and talks of roaming out for an hour or so were no longer thrilling me. Life in New Eden.
You can look at the kill stats for the time frame of those encounters. That is a lot of dead Ruptures relative to hostile kills. And you can see a lot of the pilots listed twice.
You will also note on that listing a couple groups of bombers made up of pilots with variations on the same name.
There is an example of the recently controversial IS Boxer debate, wherein a good bomber pilot has his skills effectively multiplied and is able to do perfectly timed runs solo. All good and legal according to CCP, differentiating them again from some other games in the genre. Better to just not take the bait as we did… though we did knock off one of his clones at least, making him 14% less effective I suppose.
But I am still annoyed that I did not get a good screen shot of the bombs going off on either run against us. That is what I really wanted! Life of a space tourist.
So a few other shots will have to do.

It isn't much of a war, but it's the only war we've got, so enjoy it
-Major General Charles Timmes, Military Assistance Advisory Group 1962
We're going to Delve. Again. There is something that draws Goons and their allies to Delve every summer.
And I swear, I am never making an effort to move anything out of Delve again. Not only can it be annoying, we just end up going back there in any case. Remember the Rifter that got blown up while I was tackling a while back? I left that in Delve after the 2012 war. But I was able to pick it up again in Delve… twice. That Rifter lasted through two summers and almost made it to a third.
So I am not going to worry about hauling anything out of Delve anymore. It will just wait for the next war… unlike all that crap I left in Curse.
I have some useful ships sitting, gathering dust in a couple of the NPC stations in Curse.
But I digress. More after the cut.

GARRETT – In the end, unbeaten overcame inexperience for Garrett.
The No. 3-ranked Railroaders continued their perfect and record-setting season with their most impressive win of the year, pulling away from No. 5 Concordia 49-39 to claim the Class 3A Garrett Sectional on Saturday night.
Not only was it the first sectional title for Garrett since 2011 and first-ever in 3A, but it came against the Cadets, winners of four straight sectionals and two state titles.
Garrett, now 23-0, will face Muncie Central (17-5) at 10 a.m. Saturday in the first game of the Bellmont Regional.
Winning a sectional is great, but this is a very special team, and what means the most to me is I get to spend another week with them coach Bob Lapadot said amid a raucous celebration around him. The trophies are great, the banner will be up forever. But this journey that we're on, at most, has got three more weeks, and we want to make the most out of it.
Although it never trailed after the opening two minutes of the game, Garrett could never pull away from Concordia (19-4) and held a 27-25 lead entering the final quarter.
But in the first two minutes of the quarter, Kaitlin Wisel hit a jump shot, Brandi Dawson scored in transition and Taylor Smith got a rebound basket to make it 33-25.
The Cadets cut the lead to 33-28 with 4:42 to play, at which time Lapadot called a timeout and challenged his team.
I told these guys with about four minutes to go, Here's where your naysayers, you're going to prove them right or wrong.' I never heard Concordia was the better team. I've heard they've played better teams and they've been there before. So I said, Prove that that doesn't matter.' And we did.
Garrett did not hit another shot the rest of the quarter, but hit 16 of 20 free throws.
Dawson led the Railroaders with 16 points, 13 of them coming in the second half. Wisel added 15, including nine in the decisive fourth quarter. Perhaps more importantly, the two seniors led a defense that held Concordia stars DeJour Young and Courtney Smith and eight and nine points.
I thought we did a really job for the most part, Wisel said. We let someone else take the shots and try to beat us. Our defense won us the game. On the floor our energy was up the whole game. It was really great to come out with the win.
The Cadets shot just 25 percent for the game and hit just 3 of 15 in the final quarter.
They just kind of pack in their man defense and just do a nice job, Concordia coach Dave Miller said. It's real simple. And we didn't make shots. We had kids who had open looks and nothing went in.

Different Ways Of Decay Lyrics - Crisis
I think I'm rotting on the inside.
way down deep inside my soul...
I've built this little coffin that I live in every day.
I peek out every day or so to see those ghosts at play.
I've got my knife right by my side.
I keep it warm, I hold the blade.
I want to keep watch, keep hold...
for when they come to take my soul away.
I've got this fear living inside me.
it keeps me crippled and cold.
like a child I lie frozen.
I hope these arms won't reach out and take hold.
there's blood on my face it keeps me warm at night...

November 13, 2012-Stacy Lewis didn't need to win this past weekend at the Lorena Ochoa Invitational to lock up the Rolex Player of of the Year award but she needed someone other than Inbee Park to lift the trophy. With a little help from fellow American Cristie Kerr who collected her first victory in two years, Lewis will become the first American since Beth Daniels in 1994 to claim the esteemed award.
Park for her part came close with a tie for second though she needed to not only win in Mexico but would also need to win at the season ending event the CME Group Titleholders this week to clinch the award. Though that would be a tough task for most golfers Park has proven this year that she is one of the elite players on the tour with a sensational season and has the upper hand to claim the money title.
Park who won the Evian Master's and the SIME Darby LPGA Malaysia also had twelve top-ten finishes and came in second six times this season. It has been a phenomenal year all around for the South Korean who joined the tour in 2007 and has moved up to 3rd in the Rolex World Rankings.
Lewis however has won four times this season with sixteen top-ten finishes and currently sits behind only Park on the year end money list. She has already held the spot of "top-American" on tour with her ranking of second in the world behind Yani Tseng. However the distinction of Player of the Year is something that an American has not enjoyed for almost twenty years. It is also an award that has in the last decade been dominated by the names of Tseng, Ochoa and Sorenstam.
"After I finally made my last putt there on 18, I think it finally hit me," Lewis said this past weekend. "It's just crazy to think that there have been so many great American players and I am the one after Beth in '94."
If Lewis manages to squeak out another win and Park fails to post a good finish this weekend then it is possible that Lewis can also steal the money title. First place at the CME Group Titleholders is $500,000 and Lewis is just a hair over $400,000 behind Park. It has been since 1993 when Betsy King won the money title that an American also won in that category.
The Vare Trophy which is decided by the lowest scoring average will also come down to the final weekend with several players including Park and Lewis in the mix to take that prestigious award. Rookie of the Year has been sealed by So Yeon Ryu who hardly played like a rookie winning the Jamie Farr Toledo Classic this season as well as posting fifteen top-ten finishes. Ryu earned her LPGA card last year however when she won the 2011 Women's U.S. Open after spending three years as a professional on the Korean tour.
The final tournament of the year will take place in Naples, FL and will be broadcast on the Golf Channel (November 15-18th 1:30-4:00pm EST). It is the second year for the tournament with every player having to qualify throughout the season to claim their place in the field thus featuring the best of the best for the final tournament of the season.

Few people could have imagined the day of $200+ per hour shop rates in the dealership. Of course, a decade ago who would have imagined driverless tractors and agricultural drones?
As if managing shop and labor rates weren't enough, Dealers must consider the costs of servicing Precision Farming in their business. The challenge is finding a balance of hourly or flat rates and keeping good technicians.
By JCC Specialist Dave Teigen
As a manager or dealer principal we are constantly bombarded with gadgets and systems that are designed to help us manage our time. We waste time learning these systems.
We get frustrated when they seemingly don't find the twenty-fifth hour in a day and end up tossing the systems away. The reason these management programs don't work is that they are designed to manage "clock time."
So, you work in a dealership and meet with farmers all day. No matter the time of the year or the circumstances, salespeople still need to dress for appropriately for the customer's they are serving.
It doesn't mean a suit and tie, but it does mean a company shirt, clean shoes and being well-groomed. Regardless of how the customer looks coming into the dealership, you're still selling big dollar equipment.
JCC Campus is the dealership's or manufacturer's way to become more profitable by providing educational opportunities to employees. Students learn to apply business principles to every facet of the equipment industry. The courses provide comprehensive training with a logical path. Each class builds on the one before creating accountability to ensure the students retain the knowledge and skills.
When business is good and sales are stable we tend to fall behind the learning curve and settle in to the current speed of business instead of adapting and pushing forward. Reinvention is essential when planning for long-term success of any business. Leading the pack for change requires rewarding innovative thinking and always being on the lookout for ways to improve.
There are peer groups popping up all over. It's like a new trend. Peer groups, also known as 20 groups, took root in the automobile world and today are showing up in every industry.
When JCC formed their version of a 20 group, known as North American Peer Group, the focus wasn't simply bringing dealers into the fold. It was about selecting dealers who were progressive and prepared for the challenge.

I did it again. During our presentation on Marketing Used Iron at the Canada West Equipment Dealer Convention 2014, I shot my mouth off as I normally do. Some questioned my comment about our success in achieving a high turnover rate of used equipment.
For a few years now, during 2012 and 2013, customers have been eager to pre-purchase equipment. When this happens, salespeople have an easier job but don't necessarily get to practice the art of pre-selling.
"When the customers are eager to pre-buy, salespeople don't have to use selling strategies," JCC Specialist Trent Hummel said. "It was so easy for so long that some salespeople have become order takers."
Your goal was to hire a salesperson, but what you got was a marketing person. Sure, he's got skills. He can design a great advertisement, keep up with your website and even run your company's e-mail program, but he can't close a sale.

A focus on animal welfare and the environment
Our approach to eating is simple. We believe the best way to healthy eating is to consume minimally processed, sustainably raised, locally grown foods. All of our animals are raised locally in a humane, low-stress environment without the use of antibiotics and growth-promoting hormones. They have open access to food and water, and eat strictly vegetarian diets.

Sunny will be seen playing a princess in Leela
CBFC said that had it not been for Sunny Leone's song, the Telugu film would have got easy clearance
The song, for the upcoming film Current Theega, has also been dubbed in Hindi.
Sunny Leone has started working on her new film Mastizaade, which is a sex comedy, produced by Pritish Nandy.
After the deed was done, Sunny shared a video of her dousing on Twitter
Sunny was recently seen in a special song for Tamil film Vadacurry, while she also completed shooting an item number for upcoming Telugu film Current Theega
Actress Sunny Leone is juggling between different Bollywood films, dance numbers in the southern movie world and brushing up her Hindi skills.
After declining Ragini MMS 2 and Tina and Lolo, Richa Chadda has now turned down Mastizaade.
She will wear his latest collection - The Royal Tribe - and don the avatar of a tribal queen for it.
Looking radiant and ravishing in a red gown, Sunny Leone smiled, laughed and blushed here on Thursday afternoon as five men from Delhi's media circle tried their luck in wooing the Indo-Canadian adult film actress.
Indo-Canadian adult film star Sunny Leone is happy for getting noticed but is not sure if she has made her mark in Bollywood.

As an entrepreneur, there's no greater fear than developing a product or service that no one wants and no one is willing to pay for.
The smell is potent. It's apparent as soon as you walk in. The tinge of distilled mash is unavoidable, and a pleasant reminder that this building is more than just a beautiful space that people now host weddings and events in. It's also a startup. A startup craft distillery, that is.
Being an entrepreneur can be quite an adventure. It comes with a host of ups and downs and surely, this risk (and reward)-filled path is not for everyone. But for most who have built their entrepreneurial dream, they would never trade it for a job--not for a million bucks.
A tough question every entrepreneur has to consider about his or her business is when to pivot, proceed or just plain quit.
In this segment of Top of Mind, I talk with 17-year-old Jairo Fernandez, a student from Bishop Ward High School in Kansas City. Fernandez recently attended the Ice House Entrepreneurship Program, which is especially designed to develop critical thinking skills that will enable participants to identify and evaluate opportunities, manage risks, and learn from the results.
Every year I wait for the lists. Those that list the most innovative things to happen this past year. MIT Technology Review's list is one of these. The 10 greatest breakthroughs and innovations in technology. It takes a deep dive into each of the 10 technologies. This year it was things like brain mapping and agricultural drones.
Believe it or not, you don't need a big budget or an army of people to market a product successfully. In today's marketplace, a startup can, with "a little ingenuity, some hustle, curiosity, and hard work" achieve myriad marketing goals, according to Kauffman Founders School expert Anita Newton. Kauffman Founders School is dedicated to providing entrepreneurs with the skills and knowledge they need to create and develop successful startups.
When trying to start a venture, entrepreneurs are taught to start with a problem. Then work towards the solution. Maria Meyers, founder of Sourcelink, took the same approach when she realized an established network of resources to help entrepreneurs start their businesses simply didn't exist.
It happens to everyone in business. You meet someone new who asks you what you do. And before you know it, you've rambled on only to find that rather than piquing the asker's interest in your business, you've left him or her bewildered and confused--and maybe even just a little bit sorry they asked.
The additive manufacturing industry has become an incredible resource to startups and entrepreneurs. The technology has not only helped break down the barriers to entry for product developers, but has also lent itself to an evolved marketplace where entrepreneurs can cater to personalized services and products, at a just-in-time pace, with very little startup capital necessary to launch. This has tailored an economic trend for the emergence of high frequency startup activity, mostly in the world of 3D printing.

I bought the drapes & valances.... had to buy 4 more valances as I misjudged how many I would need for each window. each of my windows has 3 sets of drapes (for the fullness) & 9 valances (7 on each window would have worked) but again, I liked it much better with the 9. I am pleased with how they look & VERY happy that they are machine washable!!

ETV Featured Partner: The James Otis Lecture
To help S.C. schools meet the Constitution Day requirements, the S.C. Chapter of the American Board of Trial Advocates (ABOTA) hosts the Annual James Otis Lecture series at the S.C. State House in observance of National Constitution Day. By federal law, all schools that receive federal assistance are required to have a program about the Constitution on or around the anniversary date of the signing of the Constitution on September 17, 1787. James Otis was a prominent Boston lawyer in the colonial era credited by John Adams as igniting the spark that led to the Declaration of Independence and the American Revolution. ABOTA nationally developed the James Otis Lecture Series to help schools to comply.
Sir Robert Worchester, a Kansas City native, is also Deputy Chairman of the Magna Carta Trust whose Patron is Her Majesty the Queen. He is a Visiting Professor at both the London School of Economics and King's College London in the Institute of British Contemporary History.
To view the 2014 James Otis Lecture, visit http://scetv.org/otislecture
The October 2nd "Palmetto Scene" will include segments on the latest Winthrop poll and an interview with President Linda O'Bryon and Sir Robert Worchester. Walter Edgars Journal interview with Sir Robert Collins will air on October 31st at noon. Both programs will be archived on ETV's website.

Double your dessert
Okay, you probably can't actually get away with having two slabs of chocolate cake instead of one, but you can make your portion more satisfying by mixing up what's on your plate. To make portion-control easier, ask for a small side of fruit, and place it next to your sweet treat on a dessert-size plate. Eating off your own dish—as opposed to the communal one—lets you gauge how much you're truly having.

Ostuni Villa Rental Photos and Description
5 Bedrooms, 5 shower rooms, 20m x 4m private swimming pool, wi-fi connection
In 2007 a Belgian couple discovered the hidden treasure of Torre Uliveto, a Saracen Tower hidden in the Olive Groves of Carovigno, Ostuni and close to the sea.
Originally it was a sea control watch tower for the soldiers of the Feud and Castle of Carovigno and dates back to the 16th century.
In 2008 the extensive and kind restoration of the tower, which had been abandoned for centuries, took place.
The following year a villa extension was started as the owners wanted Torre Uliveto to become a summer residence for their families and friends.
In 2012 this spectacular property, which is set peacefully amongst 1.5 hectares of olive trees and has sea views, will be available to rent.
Comfortably accommodating 10 people in 5 bedrooms and 5 shower rooms.
There is also a sofa bed in the living area for another 2 people.
Just a few minutes drive to the coast (1.5km) where you will find beautiful beaches or you can relax beside the 20m x 4m swimming pool.

- children welcome

text: On May 26, 2004, approximately 1130 central daylight time, an Air Tractor AT-502 single-engine agricultural airplane, N61407, was substantially damaged when it impacted a berm at the departure end of the runway following a loss of control during take-off from Ryan Aerodrome (7TX7), a private field near Tarzan, Texas. The commercial pilot, sole occupant of the airplane, was not injured. The airplane was registered to and operated by the pilot. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed, and a flight plan was not filed for the 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 137 aerial application flight. The flight was originating at the time of the accidentAccording to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) inspector, who responded to the accident site, the airplane began to settle back down on the ground just after take-off from runway N (a 2,650-feet long by 150-feet wide turf runway) . The 3,370-hour pilot emptied the load of chemicals, but was still unable to gain altitude. The right wing impacted the ground first, followed by the left main landing gear. The airplane came to rest approximately 180 degrees from the direction of take-off.Examination of the airplane by the FAA inspector revealed that the left main landing gear and tailwheel separated from the airplane. The outboard section of the right wing was bent up and aft approximately 45 degrees. The left wing-tip was wrinkled and the left aileron was almost completely separated. The rudder and elevator trim tab was completely separated from the airplane. All three propeller blades exhibited S-bending.The automated surface observing station at Midland International Airport (MAF), near Midland, Texas, located approximately 12 miles southwest of the airport, at 1153, reported winds at 170 at 10 knots, gusting to 15 knots, visibility 10 statute miles, sky clear, temperature 88 degrees Fahrenheit, dew point 63 degrees Fahrenheit, and a barometric pressure of 29.88 inches of Mercury.The density altitude was calculated as 5,320 feet based on the outside air temperature of 31 degrees Celsius, a dew point of 17 degrees Celsius, and an altimeter setting of 29.88 inches of mercury. The field elevation at the private airstrip was 2,740 feet msl.Despite repeated attempts by the NTSB investigator in charge (IIC) to acquire a completed Pilot/Operator Aircraft Accident Report (NTSB Form 6120.1/2) from the pilot, one was not obtained.

I had to look it up.In the Line of Fire is a 1993 Psychological Thriller about a Secret Service agent named Frank Horrigan, played by Clint Eastwood, trying to stop a potential assassin (John Malkovich) who has contacted him, giving him advance notice that he plans to kill the President of the United States. So begins a cat-and-mouse chase as the assassin drops hints to taunt and torment Horrigan, whose history (on detail at the time of the Kennedy assassination) he knows perfectly well. The advertising for the movie made explicit reference to the fact that it was released 30 years after the Kennedy assassination. Also stars Rene Russo as Horrigan's partner.Notable for being Eastwood's last role in which he wasn't also directing (until 2012's Trouble with the Curve). Also notable for the extensive consultation done with the Secret Service in order to achieve realism — this had not been done before in Hollywood.

Cold and flu season is right around the corner, but if you have a cold that never seems to go away, watch out. It could be an infection called sinusitis.
A cold can make you feel lousy, but what if the symptoms lasted for weeks or even months?
A doctor might diagnose sinusitis, which is an inflammation of the sinus lining.
An estimated 30-million Americans suffer from sinus infections.
In fact, sinusitis is the most common chronic illness in the United States.
Acute sinusitis is even more common and that can be from a viral infection or from a bacterial infection.
Symptoms include: headache, congestion, sore throat, fever, and fatigue.
Doctors say most cases of acute sinusitis are gone within four weeks and will often improve without treatment.
Those that don't may require antibiotics and decongestants.
Chronic sinusitis may be diagnosed if the condition doesn't improve.
Dr. John DelGaudio of the Emory School of Medicine explains treatments for chronic sinusitis, "Surgery is usually indicated for patients who have had chronic sinusitis that doesn't respond to medical therapy, so usually, a minimum of a month on antibiotics in addition to decongestants and or oral steroids."
It's not just colds that increase susceptibility to sinusitis; allergies are a culprit along with nasal polyps and a deviated septum, or nasal cavity.

Joe Jonas Talks About Continuing His Solo Career
Last year, the Jonas Brothers looked all set for a reunion tour and a new album. But after a few singles were released, the boy band called it quits for good.
That doesn't mean, however, all three members have given up on music, and recently, Joe Jonas told Scene magazine that he has plans for a new album.
While Jonas commented on Justin Bieber, who essentially succeeded the Jonas Brothers' teen pop stardom in the late '00s, he went onto reveal he's working on a follow-up to 2011's Fastlife. He explained: "I'm trying to [make it] something that I really want it to be — do music that I'm really proud of and not let too many cooks in the kitchen."
That doesn't mean there aren't collaborations on the table, and The Strokes' Albert Hammond, Jr. is expected to make an appearance.
Fastlife debuted in 2011, with a more mature sound for the middle Jonas Brother. The Hollywood Records release didn't do too poorly, eventually peaking at No. 15 on the Billboard 200.
Before the fall last year, the three-piece had planned an album titled V, but upon their breakup in November, the Jonas Brothers revealed it wouldn't ever be released. Instead, just a handful of singles came out during the year before.

Abilene State Park pool won't be open for 2014 season
Updated On: Apr 18 2014 01:06:56 PM CDT
The pool at Abilene State Park will be closed for the 2014 season after repairs to address structural issues couldn't be made in time.
"Additional time is needed in order to effectively address structural issues and to implement high-quality repairs," a Texas Parks and Wildlife Department news release said Friday.
According to the release, Abilene State Park's top priority is to "provide safe and efficient facilities for public recreation."
"At this time, the pool is expected to reopen the summer of 2015," the release said. "This affords Texas Parks and Wildlife ample opportunity to ensure the best possible repairs can be made without compromising public safety."
While repairs are being completed on the pool, Abilene State Park will continue to be "a wonderful place to bring the family to participate in a variety of other outdoor activities and special events, providing many opportunities to create fond memories," the release said.

Kid-Friendly Picnic Ideas
May 30th, 2013
Cream Cheese
Many brands of cream cheese contain thickeners or gums; gum-free cream cheese is available at some specialty shops. Cream cheese is also available as a spread, flavored with herbs or peppers. The fat content of this cheese varies widely, from the high-fat German fresh double cream cheese to low-fat Quark, which has only about 5% fat. Reduced-fat cream cheeses are typically whipped and expanded with air. Some low-fat versions contain whey powder, which tends to alter the texture.
Neufchâtel is a name used in the United States for a softer form of cream cheese that contains 20 to 33% fat, although the cheese bears no relationship to French Neufchâtel, produced only in Normandy. The best-known European varieties of cream-cheese type cheeses include Italian mascarpone, often used as the basis for sweet desserts, Austrian Quark, the French crème fraîche, and a broad range of herbed or flavored spreads, including goats' milk cheeses like chèvre.

Days after a woman forced her son to surrender for his role in the murder of Wiz Khalifa's 20-year-old uncle, new reports claim police are after at least one more suspect.
New reports claim Wiz's uncle, Imani Porter, may have lost his life due to a drug deal gone wrong.
Police say 17-year-old Jaron Young, of Penn Hills, is charged as an adult with criminal homicide in the Wednesday night shooting of 20-year-old Imani Porter. Porter, of Pittsburgh, was parked in a Steak 'n Shake parking lot in suburban Munhall when he was shot. He died at a hospital Thursday. Allegheny County homicide detectives believe Porter planned to sell heroin to Young and another still-unidentified suspect when he was, instead, shot in the head. Young denied involvement to reporters as he was taken into custody. (ABC News)
Details of the 17-year-old suspect surfaced online early Friday (January 10).
Police have identified the suspect who has surrendered in the shooting death of rapper Wiz Khalifa's uncle in the parking lot of a Pittsburgh-area fast food restaurant. Police say 17-year-old Jaron Young, of Penn Hills, is charged as an adult with criminal homicide in the Wednesday night shooting of 20-year-old Imani Porter. (Star Tribune)
The suspect's mother made sure to speak out following his arrest.
A mother forced her son to surrender Thursday for his suspected role in a fatal drug deal at The Waterfront, a popular shopping, dining and entertainment complex along the Monongahela River. "It was the right thing to do," Ronnica Sanders, 41, said, hours after her son's arrest. "I didn't raise my kid to be in the street. I didn't. I raised him to be a respectable young man in the community." (Pittsburgh Tribune-Review)
According to reports, Porter suffered a fatal gunshot wound to his head Wednesday (January 8) night.
Police are looking for at least two suspects after a shooting in the parking lot of the Steak 'n Shake at The Waterfront on Wednesday night. The gunfire erupted around 8 p.m. Allegheny County detectives say the suspect and victim were inside the same car. Authorities say 20-year-old Imani Porter was shot in head while sitting in a car in the parking lot. He was taken to UPMC Mercy Hospital, where he later died. (CBS Local)
Khalifa broke the sad and unexpected news to his Twitter account this week.
"Rest in peace Imani. Your with Allah now," Khalifa tweeted January 8.
"My uncle was younger and more level headed than all of us. I would have never seen this happening in a million years"
"God has a plan #RestWithGodImani" (Wiz Khalifa's Twitter)

I received these connectors in my order today and I'm happy to report that, even though it's not clear from the description, these connectors do come with a complete set of pins and sockets. Since I wasn't sure, I ordered the 50 pack of each anyway which will provide me plenty of spares. The connector bodies are fairly large which is not a bad thing, but larger than I was expecting. For my low current application custom LED taillight application I should have gone with something using an 0.062 pin and socket.

Tis known by the name of perseverance in a good cause, and of obstinacy in a bad one.Laurence Stern
Whatever excites the spirit of contradiction is capable of producing the last effects of heroism; which is only the highest pitch of obstinacy, in a good or bad cause, in wisdom or folly.William Hazlitt
Obstinacy in a bad cause is but constancy in a good.Sir Thomas Browne

When you have nothing to say, say nothing; a weak defense strengthens your opponent, and silence is less injurious than a bad reply.Charles Caleb Colton
What we aim to do is calm the spirit and get in touch with the source from which everything comes, removing any trace of malice or egotism. If you spend too much time trying to find out what is good or bad about someone else, youll forget your own soul and end up exhausted and defeated by the energy you have wasted in judging others.Paulo Coelho

An addiction to gardening is not all bad when you consider all the other choices in life.Cora Lea Bell
