Way out West - Canada to Central America

With a late start after a bit of wrenching on the bike, and taking care of some paperwork, I'm off to boogie in Calabogie.
A bit of offroad and backroad mecca in Eastern Ontario.
Grab the PDF article here
and head on out there!
I don't arrive in the area till late afternoon so after a bit of puttering around, I look for a spot for stealth camping...
And find the most perfect spot imaginable.
Off in the morning to explore
Good surface, lots of fun.
Taking it easy though, not much meat left on this tire.
I surprise an old woodsman after a water-crossing, he pops out of his trailer like a jack-in-the-box to see what's coming from the road that's washed out!
Right alongside the pond along an old railbed
And in to town for some breakfast. (love these old signs)
This regular was a dispatch rider during the war
And Al Capone had a hideout just around the corner
We're in canoe country alright.
Back to seek out the trail, it's dry steep and sandy.
And my bike lets me know about it.
I jumped on to this thanks to the direction of a friendly ATV rider:
Only to find miles of this in straight lines:
So I jumped back onto the hardtop, which turned out to be quite fun.
Had to turn back to check if my eyesight was failing
Into a deserted provincial campground for the night.
Here's the first few days, Montreal to Metcalfe, Griffeth, Parry Sound

Traditional BDUs (Battle Dress Uniforms) aren't nearly as common as they used to be. But the idea of wearing an alternative uniform that's combat ready-originally borrowed from the military-is more popular than ever, as evidenced by the assortment of new BDUs, tacpants, and jumpsuits available for law enforcement.

Warning: I share strong feeling on this one!
It is not intended to offend anyone,
and it is just my opinion!
I just want to say something. My heart aches this morning. A couple days ago an acquaintances daughter who was 16 years old took her own life. I don't know all the details or circumstances leading up to why she felt as if that was her only way to escape pain in her life, but I do know how much pain it's causing her family and friends. My heart goes out to them. Shayna was a beautiful girl!
Then I see on the Today Show this morning that a 10 year old child also took her life. 10 years old!!! Are you kidding me? This disturbs me in so many ways, but the fact that our children…CHILDREN people are feeling so much pain, hurt, or rejection that they feel the only way to remedy it is to take their own life is disgusting me. It's disgusting to me because it's becoming so much more frequent it seems. I can't even begin to imagine what the loss of a child feels like nor do I EVER want to know that feeling. I can't imagine the pain these parents, families, and friends are experiencing. My heart aches for them in their loss of beautiful children.
Why is this something we should even have to discuss with our kids at this age, or at all? This is heartbreaking that our children don't feel loved, appreciated, accepted, or are dealing with such a great pain. That they feel alone and that there hearts are hurting so badly. Why are bullies allowed to bully since that seems to be the majority of where teen suicides are resulting from. Why are the parents of these so called bullies not stepping up to the job and being parents to discipline these children?! (the 16 girl wasn't bullied, but the 10 year old was) God placed these beautiful children in our lives, he trusted us when he gave them to us to raise them with loving hearts, encouraging mouths, and helping hands. Why are parents forgetting that, or do they not know that it's not okay to let your child get away with being a bully? Do they not care? I would NEVER condone that behavior if it was my child! In this house we teach that we are to be accepting of everyone no matter what! That everyone has a gift or something special to bring to our lives. That it's never okay to hurt someone or be unkind. We teach that loving and helping others is a gift from God, and that he is pleased with that behavior.
I don't want to have to sit down with my 8 year old and talk about depression and what suicide is. I shouldn't have to. I am not naive either and know that things happen and situations arise, and I need to be sure the lines of communication are clear and trustworthy in this house. This is just not how it should be at all. Our children our precious, and we should feel privileged to have them and not take them for granted. I am thankful for my boys and all they have brought to my life thus far, and for all they will give to my life from this point forward. I just pray, I pray for my children and for everyones children that God will keep them under his protection that he will grow them into strong men and women who change the world with their love, intellect, and passions. I pray for these families who have lost their babies…that God will comfort them, heal them, and hold these sweet children and families in his arms. I believe that God welcomed home some precious children this week, but I know his heart broke for them on their journey home.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-4
To every thing there is a season, a time to every purpose under the heaven:
A time to be born, a time to die, a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
A time to kill, and a time to heal, a time to break down, and a time to build up;
This too breaks my heart. We recently had a student at my brother's school take his own life. I can not comprehend how parents do not step up and discipline their children. You are right; it is disgusting.
The 10 year old was from 2 towns over from me.. it broke my heart to see that.
This is a wonderful post! Thank you for sharing what so many people probably feel and think.
It is an ugly thing to see such young kids take their life when it can so often be avoided. I wish as you do too that parents would step up and take responsibility more often.
God Bless.
Thanks ladies. I just needed to vent for a second!

Exeter v Sale: Teams
At Sandy Park, Saturday, September 1, kick-off 3.00pm
Last Updated: 31/08/12 2:30pm
Exeter Exeter Chiefs play host to Sale Sharks at Sandy Park for their opening match of the 2012/13 Premiership season on Saturday.
And head coach Rob Baxter has selected a strong line-up to face the Sharks, who like the Chiefs, finished last season strongly to book themselves a Heineken Cup place.
Of the eight new summer signings, only Irish international Ian Whitten and scrum-half Will Chudley are included in Baxter's starting line-up.
Whitten partners the experienced Jason Shoemark in the home midfield, whilst Chudley is given a chance to impress in the absence of the injured Haydn Thomas.
Otherwise, it's a familiar looking line-up for Exeter, with Tom Hayes again skippering the side from the second row.
The Chiefs coach is well aware the visiting Sharks - buoyed by summer signings, including Danny Cipriani and Richie Gray - will be no walkover come Saturday.
But, while he is hopeful his side can continue their trend of recent years by kicking off their campaign with a win, he will not get too ruffled should things not go his way.
"We're looking forward to it," he said. "That is what it's all about at the end of the day. It's exciting, nerve-wracking, wonderful and horrible all at the same time.
"Obviously getting off to a flyer is great because it takes the pressure off," said Baxter. "However, it's not the end of the world if you're not winning in those first few weeks.
"We know that it's a long season and that there are plenty of points to play for throughout the year.
"We had a spell last season where we won a number of games on the bounce and all of a sudden your points total is flying.
"So for me the most important thing is that we are a side that is as competitive as possible every time we play."
Corne Uys and Gray are set to make their debuts for Sale in the clash, while Cipriani could also make his first appearance for his new club if he comes off the bench.
Like his counterpart, Sharks' director of rugby Bryan Redpath also knows that his side's trip south will certainly be no walk in the park.
Sale have lost their last three encounters with Baxter's men including a comprehensive 37-12 defeat on their last meeting at Sandy Park.
"Nobody's hiding from the fact how tough the Chiefs are down there," said Redpath. "Last year's performance at Sandy Park wasn't good enough and Sale Sharks suffered.
"The key thing is that we travel South West with a clear mindset of what we need to do. We have to turn up with our A1 game to compete down there.
"Exeter will be red hot favourites to win because they don't often lose at home, so we've nothing to lose and will give it our best shot."
Exeter: 15 Phil Dollman, 14 Josh Tatupu, 13 Ian Whitten, 12 Jason Shoemark, 11 Matt Jess, 10 Ignacio , Mieres, 9 Will Chudley, 1 Brett Sturgess, 2 Chris Whitehead, 3 Craig Mitchell, 4 Tom Hayes (capt), 5 Aly Muldowney, 6 Tom Johnson, 7 James Scaysbrook, 8 Richard Baxter.
Replacements: 16 Simon Alcott, 17 Ben Moon, 18 Chris Budgen, 19 James Hanks, 20 James Phillips, 21 Kevin Barrett, 22 Gareth Steenson, 23 Luke Arscott.
Sale: 15 Rob Miller, 14 Will Addison, 13 Johnny Leota, 12 Sam Tuitupou, 11.Corne Uys, 10 Nick Macleod, 9 Dwayne Peel, 1 Eifion Lewis-Roberts, 2 Joe Ward, 3 Vadim Cobilas, 4 Richie Gray, 5 Fraser McKenzie, 6 James Gaskell, 7 David Seymour (capt.), 8 Andy Powell.
Replacements: 16 Marc Jones, 17 Ross Harrison, 18 Tony Buckley, 19 Kearnan Myall, 20 Richie Vernon, 21 Cillian Willis, 22 Danny Cipriani, 23 Jordan Davies.

Eamus Tigris!
Cage Writer ? NBC Chicago? Fourth Place Medal
Filho, Brownand Yahya missed weight. Filho was 7 pounds over, that dude seems to have too many problems. He has all the talent but many personal issues.
Brown and Filho have two hours to make weight. Brown should make it as he was only a half pound over. Maede agreed to fight Yahya without forcing him to cut the last pound.
Faber- TKO
Like Billy Jacks' soul attack, I'm one Injun you wont forget.
WEC 36 Full Weigh-in Results:
Urijah Faber (144.5) vs. Mike Thomas Brown (145)
Paulo Filho (189) * vs. Chael Sonnen (184.5)
Jens Pulver (146) vs. Leonard Garcia (145.5)

David Avellan (185) vs. Aaron Simpson (184.5)
Jose Aldo (146) vs. Jonathan Brookins (146)
Carmelo Marrero (206) vs. Steve Steinbeiss (202)
Danny Castillo (156) vs. Rafael Dias (155)
Rani Yahya (137) vs. Yoshiro Maeda (135) **
*The Filho-Sonnen fight will now be a three-round, non-title bout.
**Although Rani Yahya came in 16 ounces over the limit at 137 lbs., Yoshiro Maeda has agreed to face the Brazilian without forcing him to drop another pound.
If Filho has the title now, shouldn't he lose it for not making weight?
Not that the WEC title is going to mean anything now that the weight class is being dropped.
Apparently this card has changed again. Ratliff is out; Rafael Dias is in against Castillo (see weigh-in results). I've updated the card on the first post.

Latest Acquisition (For my interest in graphic design)
" Euro Deco -- A sprawling compendium of Art Deco design from across Europe, Euro Deco features a broad range of exemplary graphic ephemera. Culled from Steven Heller and Louise Fili's popular International Deco series of inspirational reference books, the material in Euro Deco comes from Italy, Spain, the UK, Germany, France, and the Netherlands, primarily between WWI and WWII -- the time when the continent gave birth to modern graphic design. Well over a thousand images from posters, packaging, advertisements, menus, and brochures display the elegant geometry and harmonious marriage of typography and illustration that make deco a popular style to this day. A generous package at an attractive price, Euro Deco is poised to be a standard graphic resource for designers, collectors, and aesthetes alike.
Steven Heller is the art director of the New York Times Book Review. He is the author of over ninety books on graphic design, popular art, and satiric art. He lives in New York City. "My SketchBook http://www.conceptart.org/forums/sho...d.php?t=139784
http://www.conceptart.org/forums/sho...d.php?t=192127"Everything must serve the idea. The means used to convey the idea should be the simplest and clear. Just what is required. No extra images.

Wi-Fi-only SlingPlayer Mobile launches for iPhone
Sling Media has finally announced the availability of a Wi-Fi-only version of its SlingPlayer Mobile application for iPhone and iPod touch.
Rather than offering over-the-air streaming, when in a Wi-Fi enabled area connected to a Slingbox SOLO or PRO, the SlingPlayer Mobile software will allow users to watch and control their home television at any time from any location on their iPhone or iPod.
Sling Media came into criticism from owners of older Slingbox devices, as the app will only work with the two most recent devices from the company, although they did offer a discounted "upgrade programme" for existing owners.
Despite the Wi-Fi only capabilities, the SlingPlayer Mobile for iPhone and iPod touch is priced at £17.99, available now for download at the iPhone App Store.

Licking is a city located in Texas County, Missouri, United States. The population was 3,124 at the 2010 census.
Licking is located at 37°29′48″N 91°51′27″W / 37.49667°N 91.85750°W (37.496775, -91.857629).[6] According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 2.14 square miles (5.54 km2), of which, 2.13 square miles (5.52 km2) is land and 0.01 square miles (0.03 km2) is water.[1]
Brief History of "The Lick"[edit]
Licking (or "Buffalo Lick," as it was originally known)[7] takes its name from a salt lick, which was alive with deer until 1835. The earliest settlers came in 1826. During the Civil War, the countryside was scourged by armies of both sides, and when the war was over, few homes were left standing. In 1880 a tornado nearly destroyed the town and the homes of the people living there, but by 1889 Licking was once again a thriving little town. At this time, the Licking Academy was thought to be one of the best institutions of higher learning in this part of the state.
Early in the 20th century, fires destroyed a church and several businesses. Three people died in a fire that destroyed the Collier Hotel in 1905. Around this time, Licking was the site of one of the largest stock shows in the state, with as many as 200 wagons lining the streets for this event.
The telephone became available to Licking in 1906, with long distance service not coming until 1926. The first automobile arrived in Licking in July 1911. On April 28, 1938, the first section of line was completed and energized and Licking had electricity.
Licking High School has historically been known for its skilled baseball club. The team had eight final-four appearances from 1980 to 2003, seven of which were teams coached by Byron Hagler, who is currently an assistant coach at Drury University.
2010 census[edit]
As of the census[2] of 2010, there were 3,124 people, 634 households, and 397 families residing in the city. The population density was 1,466.7 inhabitants per square mile (566.3/km2).

All the world's a stage
Life has been quiet recently.
The last year was filled with a lot of drama and while I never like there to be bad things happening, there is always a bit of a buzz off group controversy.
You feel like once there's some scandal going on, your life is interesting.
You have things to talk about and analyse and people to judge.
Let's face it, if you meet up with a friend and he/she has 'gossip', you want to hear it.
Obviously you don't like hearing your friends are in a bind, but at the same time it adds a bit of spice to life whether you're involved, you're trying to help or you're just watching the madness unfold.
But life has been quiet recently.
There's been very little drama.
Every now and again I look about and sigh, wondering if I've become boring.
I've nothing exciting to blog about, nothing super-interesting to tell people.
But it's actually been kind of brilliant.
Maybe this is what growing old is – suddenly realising that drama is just a pain in the ass.
It's stressful!
Because even if you're not involved in the initial stages, you'll always get pulled in.
And so I'm enjoying the quiet life.
I hang out with friends and we reminise or talk about movies, books, current affairs (ha, celebrity news), music, whatever!
We say "Any news?" and the reply is "Nah, not really".
It's nice.
It's relaxing.
It's a little boring, but hell, I'll take boring!
Boring makes it easier to sleep at night.
Boring stops me from frowning.
Boring stops me from getting stressed out.
Let's hear it for Boring!
"… you'll have to fall in love at least once in your life or Paris has failed to rub off on you."
I watched Midnight in Paris at the weekend and have spent the last few days in a bit of a funk.
It's been over a year since I've visited the city and the realisation is more than a little heartbreaking.
Forgive me, but I'm about to wax lyrical.
It's a shameful cliché – the wannabe writer in love with Paris – but it really is plain fact.
I don't love it because of its rich art and literary history.
It's not because of the abundance of great books and movies set there.
And it's not because it's the 'City of Love'.
It's nothing like that.
It was Paris itself that claimed my heart.
The atmosphere, the unique lighting , the architecture, the beautiful streets, the packed outdoor cafes, the Parisians themselves (despite popular belief), the smells, the colours and a million other things.
The main character in Midnight in Paris loves the city because of what it was.
I love it for what it is.
Its past doesn't hold much for me.
I do understand why artists were inspired there, but the fact that they were doesn't have an effect on my opinion.
But it is more than likely that the same je ne sais quoi that captivated them is what captivates me.
The city just does something to me.
There's something in the air.
This feeling of anticipation.
The notion that something wonderful is about to happen.
The notion that anything could happen.
There's really nothing else like it.
What I feel for Paris is undeniably love.
It's love.
There's no doubt about it.
I think about it, talk about it, write about it.
I feel giddy with excitement as I near my time to visit.
I'm completely consumed by it when I arrive and I get this feeling I can hardly explain.
It's joy and awe and electricity, warmth, sadness and peace all at once.
The experience is overwhelming and there are moments during my stay there when I just have to stop and breathe for a second.
Just to take it all in.
I know it sounds a little over the top, but this is how I feel.
It's my favourite place in the world.
I don't believe that anything could compare to it for me.
It turns me into this babbling, gushing romantic and I fight the urge to jump on someone's couch declaring "I'm in love, I'm in love and I don't care who knows it!"
But part of charm is the fact that my time there is fleeting.
It's this wonderful treat for me.
Living there would make it ordinary and it would be a sin for Paris to ever be ordinary.
I savour every moment I get there, knowing that it won't last and then I pull away, starving myself of it, so that its effect never fades.
The city has my heart.
And yes, the claim about Paris in the rain is completely true.
Playing Catch Up
Sorry I've been missing for a while!
Don't be mad.
Look! Here's an adorable kitten —–>
Anyway, things got a little busy and I was suffering a slight case of writer's block, so blogging was put on hold.
I have been doing my thang over on Ramp though and I've two new "How To…" posts to show you.
First up is today's How To … Have Sex and Be Really Awesome At It:
♥ Food
Incorporating food into the banging process is a firm favourite of Cosmo, which means it's something that everyone does and that it's awesome. Smear each other in chocolate, ice cream or honey. Nothing says 'hot' like stickiness and having to change the bed sheets immediately afterwards. Other suggestions include chewing pulpy (non-acidic) fruit and keeping it in your mouth while giving a blowjob and giving your guy a 'beer facial'. Cosmo has also suggested that girls get their guys to eat sushi off their naked bodies because that's obviously the time you both want to be thinking about fish…
Click HERE to read the full piece.
There's also last week's post, How To … Write a Comedy for RTÉ:
◊ Find Your Group
Once you're in there, you must obtain a group of like-minded people. You see, RTÉ comedies are based on the kind of material that only you and your mates find funny due to the fact you came up with the concept during a night of necking Cosmos and have repeated the jokes constantly until you've forgotten why you found them funny in the first place and now just laugh automatically. Other sources of material are crap jokes that your writer mate came up with that you put it in the show anyway because you feel bad telling him he's shit and his ego is too big for him to realise this himself…

I worry about me sometimes….
Walking home from work yesterday…
*catches sight of a man's reflection in a shop window – man is deathly pale with old-fashioned, shoulder-length black hair and black clothes*
*mentally gasps*
Thinks: "OMG that dude is a vampire!"
Then thinks: "Don't be an idiot, Catherine – vampires don't have reflections…"
Happy Friday, Folks!
The Surprise Party
"Sometimes I think surprise parties are more fun for people doing the surprising," said The Roomie as we sat on the couch the morning after The Nurse's party.
Myself and The BBF had been planning it for weeks.
We tracked down her friends and ours and coerced them into freeing up their schedules.
I booked The Nurse for the night in question, under the guise of cocktails and a night in Coppers *shudder*
We got food, drink and presents.
The BBF located an awesome cake.
I spent many hours decorating my apartment, filling the ceiling with fairy lights, the walls with streamers and the floor with balloons.
I even made photo booth props so we'd have fun photos of the night.
There was a close call when I checked Facebook that Wednesday morning and saw The Nurse had decided to throw her own impromptu party on the Saturday – the day after our party.
Would people be confused?
Would someone let something slip?
Would people only go to one of the events, leaving the other party bleak and empty?
It all worked out in the end though.
We had a lovely group waiting eagerly with cocktails and party poppers in hand as we came closer and closer to The Nurse's arrival time of 9.30pm.
At 9.25pm she phoned me, causing mass panic as our final guest was making his way to the apartment at the same time.
She was still at home, being very relaxed about our meeting time (thankfully) and we got our last man inside without detection.
As we all chatted quietly far away from the open window for fear she'd hear us when she arrived, everyone seemed a little hysterical with adrenaline that was pumping around our bodies much longer than it should've been as it got further and further from her arrival time.
She appeared shortly before 10pm and everyone shouted Surprise and Happy Birthday and popped poppers and sang to her, while she stood look shell-shocked and threatening to kill me.
Good Times!
Excellent night all round!
And to those that have claimed my apartment is jinxed when it comes to parties, I say screw you!
Yes, one party ended in lots of fights and the other ended in lots of vomit and alcohol poisoning, but THIS ONE ended in happiness and joy and fun!
Good day to you, Sir!

The Waiting Game
I'm a little on edge at the moment.
I'm waiting on an email/phone call about something that's very important to me.
I've been waiting since Friday.
I really, really, really hate waiting.
I'm the kind of person who has things done five minutes before I've thought to do it.
Slight exaggeration, but you catch my drift.
If you're an astrology person, I'm a typical Aries.
Bursting with enthusiasm, jumping into new projects, getting things done as quickly as I can.
Mainly because I hate waiting.
I like knowing where I stand and what an outcome will be.
This vague, elusive thing is in other people's hands.
And so I sit.
Refreshing my emails every other minute just in case.
I don't think I'm going to get the result I want, but I just want to know.
Hope is a bitch.
A lot of people say that there's nothing quite like your first love.
I've only had the one, so I can't confirm this myself, but I usually tell people that there has to be at least one other out there who can make my heart skip a beat.
Truthfully though, I've been having some doubts recently.
Doubts about love.
You see, I remember when myself and The Boy got together and truly it was like magic.
Actually I should stop calling him that.
He needs a new name on the blog.
The Boy Formerly Known As The Boy?
It'll do for now.
Anyway, it was like magic.
The timing.
The chemistry.
The compatibility despite being complete opposites.
The fact that being with him was the only time I really felt I was at home.
We were consumed by each other.
We'd start texting early in the morning and finish just before we went to sleep.
We chatted online.
We met up whenever we could.
We needed to tell each other everything that happened.
I felt anxious and off-balance if we were fighting.
And I never, ever once doubted he loved me.
I knew it.
No matter what was going on or how things looked, I just knew I was his world and he was mine.
It seemed perfect for so long.
And you guys know how the story ends, so I won't go into all that again.
I didn't lose hope after that.
I knew I'd find someone else.
But I've changed.
When I was with TBFKATB everything was so right that I just believed – and genuinely felt – that that was it.
And then all of a sudden it wasn't.
Can I ever give myself completely like that again?
The perfection of the relationship was in its imperfection.
The fact that it had its flaws – God knows we had our flaws – but despite that we were still so sure of it.
Of us.
How can I possibly feel that again?
Knowing that despite how sure we were, we were wrong?
I find myself a little jaded by the whole process.
In subsequent relationships, I've been level-headed and compromising and rational and practical.
I haven't bombarded them with contact.
I haven't wanted to bombard them with contact.
I haven't been overly affectionate in public.
I didn't think about them that much.
I've given them space.
In fact, I really liked having lots of space.
I thought it was because I was just more mature, maybe more secure in myself.
Definitely less naive.
My gut was telling me to get the hell out of there.
But I kept telling myself that this is just how 'proper' grown-up relationships are.
That TBFKATB was My First Love.
That I was just overwhelmed and innocent then and that's why I felt and acted that way.
That no future love will ever be that all-consuming.
Because the elusive 'they' say that.
Because so many of the relationships around me are like that.
Because I've seen so many people gush and rave about their 'loves' only to have it all fall apart.
Because I can't imagine being able to be like that again.
It's not going to be the same, so I can't compare future relationships to that on.
I can't possibly expect them to live up to that.
And then I sat down with a friend today.
She told me about her mum who has been dating for the last couple of years.
Her mum who met someone in the last year that literally makes her giddy.
Who she can't stop thinking about.
Who she constantly wants to text and to talk to.
Who gives her hope and joy.
Who she's completely in love with.
That story couldn't have come at a better time.
I was the person who always believed in a bright and happy future.
Who always believed in the power of love.
Who believed wholy and completely in it, despite all the horrible things that happened, despite all the horrible things endured under the guise of 'love', despite having no real reason to trust in or want anything to do with it ever again.
I had stopped believing in it.
Sure I believed there were forms of it, that it was nice, but that it was hyped.
Love wasn't magical, it didn't conquer all, it was make-believe.
TBFKATB had confirmed that the faith I had in true, pure love all through my childhood, through my teenage years, despite my surroundings telling me different, hadn't been in vain.
But when we split and I found myself dissatisfied with every guy I came across, I wondered if 'true, pure love' can only happen the once.
If it was that innocence and naivity that was the key ingredient.
That giddiness, the exhiliration, the encounters that leave you breathless.
It's a one-time deal and if you can't make it work, then you settle for a slightly blurred substitute.
That story made me believe again.
I'm not sure if I'm right back to my old hopeless romantic self, but I've definitely been set back on the path.
In a land far, far away….
I've a new post over on Ramp.ie today.
This one is How To … Become Edward Cullen.
1. Appearance
First of all, dye your hair a really unnatural orange-brown hue and tell everyone it's auburn. It should have some length in it, because you'll have to pile it all on top of your head and then wax it into a giant nest shape. Once you have the hair sorted, you'll need to get yourself one pair of gold contact lenses and one pair of black contact lenses. Alternate depending on your mood/hunger levels. Next you need to make your skin a pale greyish colour, then roll in some PVA glue and empty a bucket of glitter on yourself. The end result should be something like this:

*spots a fly landing on the wardrobe door*
Hello Fly.
I'm going to squish you in a second.
Actually, no.
No I'm not.
For I am a benevolent god.
I will show you mercy.
No smiting for you today.
I am not in a smiting mood.
Although I do like a good smiting.
Or smoting…
You will not be squished by me.
You will live to see another day.
Be free.
Why are you flying RIGHT AT ME!!?
Leave me alone!!!
Stop being a jerk!!!!!!!!!

Narberth's answer to Dean & Deluca, this popular deli-cafe (with a sister branch in Aberystwyth) does a brisk trade in continental cupboard staples at reasonable prices. Though the deli's shelves support plenty of local produce, as the name suggests, there's a definite Spanish influence here. The tapas, especially, is becoming an institution and, if you don't want to eat in, you can buy everything from stuffed peppers to Serrano ham to go.

The Anse des Flamands region
St Barts, known as Saint Barthelemy officially and simply as Saint-Barth to the locals, is eight square miles of paradise in the north eastern corner of the Caribbean arc. Not far from either St Kitts or Anguilla, both of which can be seen on the horizon.
In contrast to its formerly British neighbouring islands, St Barts remains resolutely French and 100% part of the French Republic, with all the emphasis on style, fashion and cuisine that that entails.
Discovered by Colombus in 1493 and then again in 1957 by the Rockefellers, St Barts is famed as the playground of the rich and famous and at Christmas the global jet-set and glitterati can be found enjoying the 22 beaches and the 80 or so restaurants. The hotels on St Barts are small and the majority of the accommodation is in villas, of which we have the widest possible choice
Anse des Flamands
Flamands is one of the signature locations on St Barts with some of its most prestigious properties.There are not that many beach front villas on St Barts, however Flamands has more than its fair share.Flamands is situated on northern side of the island, two bays across from St Jean which has the airport and a wide range of boutiques and shops.It is also convenient for access to Gustavia and Colombier.Flamands beach is long and golden, a bit rough from time to time, but beautiful nonetheless.

Generation of Fractional Harmonics in a Resonant Ultrasonic Wave System48(1970); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1912245View Description Hide Description
The problem of a fluid‐filled cavity caused to resonate by an ultrasonic wave is described as a parametric phenomenon. Variation of the cavity resonance frequency as a result of the periodic change of length produces the condition for parametric resonance. As a result, fractional harmonics of the driver transducer frequency are generated. The wave equation describing the system is transformed into an ordinary differential equation with periodic coefficients. The solution of this differential equation (Mathieu's equation) predicts frequency doublets which have been observed experimentally. A threshold condition of parametric excitation is derived from the region of unstable solutions of Mathieu's equation. This threshold condition relates the amplitude and frequency of the driver transducer to the cavity length and to the absorption per wavelength of the medium. Reasonable agreement between theory and experiment is obtained.
A Graphic Solution for Wave Velocities of Sound in Crystals48(1970); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1912246View Description Hide Description
A method is presented for solving the cubic equation involved in calculating velocities of sound in any direction in crystals.
Optical Measurements of Ultrasonic Attenuation and Reflection Losses in Fused Silica48(1970); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1912247View Description Hide Description
The ultrasonic attenuation in fused silica was measured by the Bragg diffraction of a 6328‐Å He‐Ne laser beam; two complementary techniques were used to obtain room‐temperature data over the frequency range 200–980 MHz. The frequency dependence of the attenuation is given by f 1.97 and f 1.98, for longitudinal and transverse waves, respectively. If an exact square‐law dependence is assumed, the material loss at 25.0°C can be characterized by the constants , and , where . The acoustic‐wave reflection losses at the free surface and transducer‐bond surface of the sample were evaluated. Although in the former case the loss was negligible, in the latter large reflection losses were observed, in spite of the low conversion efficiency of the transducer. A study of the angular distribution of the acoustic intensity for the generated and reflected beams showed that this loss was mainly dissipative, although a deformation of the plane wavefront was also a contributing factor.
New Ultrasonic Technique for the Determination of the Ratios of Strain‐Optical Constants48(1970); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1912248View Description Hide Description
A new ultrasonic technique for the determination of the ratios of strain‐optical constants is presented. The new technique makes use of the Raman‐Nath theory for the optical diffraction that is produced by a standing ultrasonicwave. It does not require extrapolation to zero sound intensity, which has been the standard procedure for the past 32 years. The intensity of the light in the zero order of the diffraction pattern is observed for light beams which are polarized parallel and perpendicular, respectively, to the ultrasonic wavefront. These data can then be interpreted in either of two ways to determine the ratios of the strain‐optical constants. The new technique has been used in studies of various optical glasses and of sodium chloride. In all cases, the results have been in agreement with values obtained by other investigations using old techniques. The numerical values obtained for sodium chloride are .
Electrical and Mechanical Loading of a Piezoelectric Surface Supporting Surface Waves48(1970); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1912249View Description Hide Description
The influence of surface loading on the propagation of surface waves on a piezoelectric substrate is analyzed. Both mechanical and electrical loading are described by means of a simple first‐order perturbation theory. General formulas for the perturbation of the surface‐wave phase velocity caused by deposition of a uniform thin film or by electrical interaction with an adjacent conducting or semiconducting medium are developed. The scattering of surface waves from discrete strips is also analyzed. Results from scattering and wave‐propagation analysis are utilized to describe the interdigital surface‐wave transducer. An equivalent circuit for a basic transducer element is developed, and the total transducer is analyzed by means of transmission‐line theory applied to a network of cascade‐coupled elements. The effect of electrode mass loading is specially treated, and the results are compared with measurements made on a Y‐cut Z‐propagation crystal.
Experimental Investigation of the Resolution Capability of Microwave Ultrasonic‐Beam Visualization Techniques Using Bragg Diffraction of a Laser Beam48(1970); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1912250View Description Hide Description
The theoretical resolution capability of Bragg‐imaging technique for two‐dimensional problems has been verified using ultrasonic waves in solids at frequencies in the vhf and L‐band range. The resolution was investigated as a function of ultrasonic wavelength and laser‐beam convergence angle. With an optical arrangement which utilizes a combination of a diffraction‐limited spherical lens and low‐grade cylindrical lenses, resolution nearly equal to the theoretical value was obtained. For this investigation it was necessary to devise techniques for generating multiple ultrasonic beams in one‐ and two‐dimensional array configurations with well‐defined beam dimensions and separations. It is found that the most reliable method of fabricating such configurations is to deposit a gold‐film back electrode with an identical array pattern on a uniform CdS film transducer. The application of Bragg‐imaging technique for visualizing the activity pattern of a CdS thin‐film transducer is also illustrated.
Ultrasonic Absorption in48(1970); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1912251View Description Hide Description
Ultrasonic absorption has been measured in in the temperature range 300°–683°K. These data were analyzed to obtain vibrational and rotational relaxation times. The vibrational collision numbers seem to increase with temperature from 300° to 473°K and then decrease with temperature. This behavior can be explained by the v‐r theory of Shields and Burks. The rotational collision numbers compare favorably with thermal transpiration measurements.
Propagation of Sound in a Turbulent Atmosphere48(1970); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1912252View Description Hide Description
Applying a perturbation technique to the correct form of the equation for the acoustic pressure field in a viscousturbulent atmosphere yields the power spectra for the amplitude and phase fluctuations of a propagating plane wave. The development includes the effects of absorption and removes the restrictions on wavenumber that previously prevented solution of the problem for other than ultrasonic frequencies. For a wide range of propagation parameters, the amplitude and phase spectra found by Tatarski for optical propagation are shown to be good approximations for acoustic waves. Complete expressions, without limitation on the assumed refractive‐index spectra, determine the range of validity of this result and also provide an exact first‐order solution.
Radiation by Finite Circular Pistons Imbedded in a Rigid Circular Baffle. I. Eigenfunction Solution48(1970); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1912253View Description Hide Description
Spheroidal wavefunctions have been used to calculate the patterns and radiation impedances of several piston configurations mounted in a rigid circular baffle. The results are of some practical interest, and they also may be used to check approximate solutions. For one of the configurations there is no diffraction at the edge of the baffle; in this instance, the radiation characteristics are identical with those of the infinite baffle case.
Observation of Waves Radiated from Circular Cylinders Caused by an Incident Pulse48(1970); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1912254View Description Hide Description
Schlieren visualization and hydrophonemeasurements are used to observe the radiated wavefronts which result when an acoustic pulse is incident on a metal cylinder in water. The range of size parameter ka from 138 to 1419 is considered. The wavefront positions are traced by the refraction, internal reflection, and radiation of shear and compressional waves. In the case of solid cylinders, many wavefronts display an apparent circumferential property derived from the incidence of energy from the normal to the appropriate critical angle. Identification of one of these wavefronts as resulting from previously identified "Rayleigh‐type" wave propagation and a single incident angle is denied, although the circumferential property is verified. A previously identified faster circumferential wave is attributed to a composite wavefront resulting from direct compressional transmission and an increasing number of its internal reflections. Other wavefronts depending on mode conversions are also identified. A mechanism is presented to account for the apparent dispersion indicated by an increasing circumferential wave speed determined from previous hydrophonemeasurements below ka = 200. Simultaneous schlieren and hydrophone receptions that show the wavefront incident on a hydrophone as well as the resultant hydrophone output at ka values of 355 and 138 are presented. For shells, a prominent wave is seen to exist, in the same position, for both air‐ and water‐filled cases. The wave is shown to be a characteristic of thin shells, originating from the transmitted compressional wave and subsequent mode conversion to a shear wave. The radiated wavefronts disclose a circumferential property for the waves that cause them. One such wavefront, believed to be the same described elsewhere as an antisymmetric Lamb wave, is proven in our case to be caused by direct transmission through the interior of a water‐filled shell. The wave previously attributed to a Rayleigh‐type circumferential propagation is shown to exist in aluminum shells as thin as those with a 0.9 ratio of inner to outer radius.
Visualization of Plane‐Strain Vibration Modes of a Long Cylinder Capable of Producing Sound Radiation48(1970); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1912255View Description Hide Description
This paper points out that a class of plane‐strain vibration modes in an isotropic solid cylinder has properties suitable for interaction with a sound field in a fluid medium surrounding the cylinder. A resonance‐type theory of such modes is presented. Experimental verification of this theory is obtained by observing stress birefringence patterns of resonating glass cylinders. The circumferential waves arising from these modes are likely to play a part in the scattering phenomena occurring in the medium surrounding the cylinder.
Harmonic Nonaxisymmetric Waves with Short Wavelengths Propagating in Composite Rods48(1970); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1912256View Description Hide Description
The asymptotic phase velocities, at very large wavenumbers, of nonaxisymmetric waves traveling in composite rods are established analytically. Frequency spectra and mode shapes of composite rods are presented and compared with those of simple (made of one material) rods.
Response of a Covering Plate to Noise in a Viscoelastic Half‐Space48(1970); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1912257View Description Hide Description
The steady‐state response of an infinite Bernoulli‐Euler plate placed on the surface of a vibrating viscoelastic half‐space is studied both theoretically and experimentally. The surface displacements of the half‐space before the plate is added are assumed to be stationary homogeneous random functions of position and time. Given the wavenumber‐frequency spectra of these displacements, the frequency spectra of the displacements of the plate‐half‐space interface are calculated, assuming that there is no shear stress between the plate and the half‐space. A test of the theory was performed in which several Plexiglas plates of varying thickness were placed on the vibrating surface of an "experimental half‐space," a tub filled with Plasticine (a modeling clay). Wavenumber spectra transformed from correlation measurements, made on the surface of the clay, were used in the theory to obtain response predictions that agreed to within 3 dB of measured response levels.
The Role of Impurities in Cavitation‐Threshold Determination48(1970); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1912258View Description Hide Description
We have extended the theoretical work of Harvey et al. [J. Cellular Comp. Physiol. 24, 1–22 (1944)] and Strasberg [J. Acoust. Soc. Amer. 31, 163–176 (1959)] in order to consider the conditions that must exist in a liquid for a vapor cavity to be nucleated from an imperfectly wetted solid impurity (mote) in the liquid. It is found that, for sufficiently small and readily wetted motes, the tensile stress required for nucleation increases with increasing surface tension and decreasing mote size but is almost independent of the gas content and history of the liquid. On the other hand, for sufficiently large and imperfectly wetted motes, the gas content of the liquid and its history are crucial, whereas the mote size and the liquid‐vaporsurface tension play no role in determining the conditions for nucleation. The qualitative predictions of this theory of moted‐induced nucleation bring some semblance of order to a wide variety of observations of statically induced cavitation and low‐frequency acoustic cavitation reported in the literature.
Sound Propagation in a Channel with Lossy Boundaries48(1970); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1912259View Description Hide Description
The sound field of a CW point source in a duct with lossy boundaries is written as a normal‐mode sum. It is assumed that the boundaries are parallel and that the sound velocity varies only with depth in the duct. As an illustrative example, calculations are made for a shallow water duct and compared to field data.
Measurement of the Effect of Air Bubbles on the Speed of Sound in Water48(1970); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1912260View Description Hide Description
A simple technique for measuring the effect of air bubbles on the speed of sound in water, and hence on the attenuation of pressure pulses in water, has been developed. The good agreement of the experimental data with computed values indicates the adequacy of the experimental method.
Bottom‐Reflection‐Loss Model with a Velocity Gradient48(1970); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1912261View Description Hide Description
Theoretical bottom‐reflection losses are computed using a multilayered model of the ocean bottom in which the layers are considered to be absorbing liquid sediments with velocity gradients. The soundvelocity of each sediment layer is assumed to be a nearly linear function of depth z. In this case, the acoustic field in the sediment layers can be represented as a linear combination of Airy functions. Comparisons of theoretical and measured bottom‐reflection losses are made for three areas at frequencies from 0.1 to 1.6 kHz.
Asymptotic Solution of the Stochastic Helmholtz Equation for Turbulent Water48(1970); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1912262View Description Hide Description
It is concluded that a two‐variable expansion is sufficient for representing sound propagation through a continuous weakly inhomogeneous medium and that the Debye approximation is a proper two‐variable expansion. Its application to the stochastic Helmholtz equation yields, to order , the eikonal equation and the transportequation; α is the rms refractive index variation, σκ is the Prandtl number, R t is the turbulentReynolds number, λ g is the Taylor microscale, and k 0 is the wavenumber. The resultant acoustic frequency limitations for the Stone and Mintzer experiment and for the turbulent upper ocean are developed and compared. The solution of the eikonal and transportequations in a continuous fluid renders a Lagrangian pressure relation. Finally, the Debye and Born approximations are compared for one‐dimensional sound propagation.
Derivation of the Stochastic Helmholtz Equation for Sound Propagation in a Turbulent Fluid48(1970); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1912263View Description Hide Description
The basic stochastic wave equation for sound propagation through a turbulent field is derived from first principles as represented by the continuity equation, the Navier‐Stokes equations, and an appropriate equation of state. It is shown that, for very low turbulentMach numbers and monochromatic transmissions sound propagation in a turbulent field can be adequately represented by the stochastic Helmholtz equation,, if the acoustic wavelength does not exceed the Taylor microscale λ g divided by , where σκ is the Prandtl number and u/c is the turbulentMach number. In addition, the comparison of similar turbulent flows in air and in water, with respect to estimating their acoustic frequency limitations, is illustrated by contrasting: (1) the Baerg and Schwartz experiments with the Stone and Mintzer experiments, and (2) the turbulent lower atmosphere with the turbulent upper ocean.
Ray Theory for Sources and Receivers on an Axis of Minimum Velocity48(1970); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1912264View Description Hide Description
This article presents a detailed analysis and numerical investigation of the ray theory of four simple velocity profiles in common use as models of the deep sound channel in underwater acoustics. Comparison with ray‐theory results for range and group velocity, obtained after fitting a 19‐parameter curve to a realistic ocean profile, indicates that these simple profiles are inadequate. Numerical examples exhibit more completely the significant effect of discontinuities in the second‐ and third‐profile derivatives evaluated at the axis. Some general theoretical results are developed and illustrated by examples. These results include: (1) scaling laws interrelating ray theory results for different sets of profile parameters, (2) the development of range and group velocity in series expansions of the phase velocity, (3) group velocity inequalities, and (4) the role of points of inflection in producing multiple caustics. A method is presented which determines and demonstrates the near‐axial ray‐theory properties of a velocity profile by comparison with a cosh profile.

3 Ways to Get Wasted On Texas Independence Day
Drinking holidays are just as important to the human condition as the economy, education, and good health. And let's be honest, there just aren't enough Fridays, Saturdays, and Super Bowls in the year to feel sufficiently hammered. So what's to be done? Find another reason. That's what Texas does.
March 2nd is Texas Independence Day, the glorious day in history when Texas broke away from Mexico and became it's own republic. Remember the Alamo? It's cool, no one outside of Texas does either. It's really a holiday of minimal significance and more of an excuse to get blitzed*, so we're rounding up three Texas-style cocktails to give everyone the chance to celebrate. Because if there's one thing Texas loves, it's thinking they know what's best for the good ol' USA.
1) Texas Tea
2 oz. each of vodka, rum, tequila, bourbon, triple sec, and Coca-Cola
Essentially a Long Island Iced Tea, but with bourbon. Because why the hell not.
2) Texas Rose
3 oz. Champagne, 1 dash cherry liqueur, 2 oz. orange juice, 1 oz. bourbon
AKA how to get a girl from UT back to your apartment.
3) Texas Tornado
Equal parts of Southern Comfort, pineapple juice, and Sprite
A great beverage to enjoy on the beach. Or on a hot day while patrolling the border.
*You heard me, you longhorn-loving wusses. Come and get me.
Great Texas Cocktails, we like the Texas Tornado, do you have a Sandy and Blizzard Cocktail for the NYC and Jersey people?
Our idea of a NYC cocktail is vodka in anything – but that's probably just us
We do have a Sandy cocktail – it's just a really watered-down Manhattan

Forsberg will debut tonight on Preds' top line
Apr 14, 2013, 6:13 PM EDT
Nashville has no realistic hope of making the playoffs this season, but Predators fans will get a glimpse of the team's future tonight.
18-year-old forward Filip Forsberg, who the Predators acquired from the Washington Capitals in exchange for Martin Erat, will make his season debut vs the Detroit Red Wings, according to NHL.com. To make matters more interesting, he won't be eased into the lineup.
Forsberg is projected to play alongside David Legwand and Taylor Beck on Nashville's first line. He will also be part of Nashville's top power-play unit.
Forsberg was taken with the 11th overall pick in the 2012 NHL Entry Draft. As far as forwards go, only Edmonton's Nail Yakupov and Montreal's Alex Galchenyuk were claimed ahead of him.
He's not related to Peter Forsberg, but has tried to model his game after the retired Swedish star. Filip has also drawn some favorable comparisons to Anaheim Ducks forward Corey Perry.
"You can see the skillset," Predators coach Barry Trotz said. "He shoots the puck really hard. You can see he has good mobility for a young guy. .. (He has) great, great potential and that's always a dangerous word because it means he hasn't done anything."
Nothing yet, but the Predators seem more than willing to give Forsberg every opportunity to prove that he can live up to the hype.

True there is no winner yet but I don't think erat will run away with the scoring title anytime soon. Washington should've offered kuznetsov if anybody. They don't really know Forsbergs ceiling and that could be very detrimental.

Emphasis on "could". The Caps were relatively gunshy about this one, because of what happened with Anton Gustafson, a Swedish prospect that never panned out and left hockey pretty quickly.
Through one game, thought what Forsberg's strength in second-division Swedish competition showed. But also while he backchecked, he was relatively positionally unsound and doesn't quite have the defensive instincts. The question is whether these improvements happen is a matter of time.
Caps are set at Forsberg's position two or three deep–with Kuznetsov and Riley Barber, and Tom Wilson getting back to health.And chances are, he would have really had to compete in DC, given, those three guys as well as the guys already on the team.
This deal could be a win-win for both. Forsberg may be a long-term win for Nashville, but the Erat trade may be a short-term win for the Caps. And that's okay, since both clubs are looking in those particular directions. Nashville is thinking rebuild and develop, while the Caps are under pressure to win now. End of story.

Brothers accused of killing mom's boyfriend have bonds reduced
Judge orders condition that if released they wear electronic monitoring devices
CORPUS CHRISTI - A judge on Thursday lowered the bonds of two Corpus Christi brothers arrested earlier this month on suspicion of murder.
Joshua Hild, 29, and Caleb Hild, 23, were both arrested in the Sept. 4 death of Jose Perez.
District Judge Nelva Gonzales Ramos granted the men's requests to lower their bonds from $150,000 to $70,000. But as a special condition, Ramos ordered that the men wear electronic monitoring devices if released on bond.
Perez, 41, who was their mother's boyfriend, was shot to death while visiting her Melrose Street home.
Police have said that when Perez and the men's mother began to argue, the brothers asked Perez to leave the home. The brothers told officers that when Perez refused they each got a gun and shot Perez several times, police said. The case has not yet been presented to a grand jury.
Both men remained in the Nueces County Jail on Thursday afternoon, according to jail officials.
