How I'm Winning New Realtor Referrals
I love "refi booms" because I find this to be the best time to win Realtor Referrals away from other Loan Officers!
I've been setting aside 2 hours every week to prospect for new Realtors and another 2 hours to meet with them! My goal is to establish 2 new relationships each week. Now this is where it gets fun!!!
You already know what other Loan Officers have offered them to earn their business- mainly "product dumping" and the famous weekly call – "your loan is doing fine and oh yeah – You're the Greatest"! While they're schmoozing, I'm adding value.
I make sure that I have so much in my arsenal that it is impossible for a Realtor to say "No". The Big Guru's call these USP's (Unique Selling Propositions). I just call them having more bullets for my gun!
Ben's Rules for Annihilating the Competition:
a) Remember- it takes a little money to make money and capture market share- so don't kid yourself!
b) Do what everybody else out there isn't doing – Work!!!
Ben's Marketing Weapon of Mass Production #1:
The first marketing weapon I'd like to share on the Top of Mind Blog is called ePropertysites. When I call on a new Realtor, I like to take them by surprise and ask them if I can help market their listings! ePropertysites has a program that allows me to:
a) Create websites for their listed homes
b) Post them to Craig's List twice a week (plus ePropertysites posts them to ten other sites such as Zillow and Google Base on a daily basis)!
c) Then I create the Realtors their own accounts – so that the leads go straight to them! I make them look like heroes to their sellers!
I'll be writing some more articles soon with other marketing ideas I've been using to dominate my market. Until then, have a great week!

Two National Championships built on basics
EUGENE, Ore. – The University of Oregon's Acrobatics and Tumbling team won its second consecutive National Championship in April, but to get to this point the team used basic skills as the building blocks of its program to establish confidence in all of its athletes.
Each season begins with Head Coach Felecia Mulkey preaching to her team the importance of mastering the basic technical skills. From the get-go Mulkey has her team doing drills of basic maneuvers, because it is this repetition that reinforces them.
"You have to have the fundamental skills, and have to be able to do them technically sound, so that you can build on those," said Mulkey. "All of the things you see us do now are based on those fundamental skills."
"The first skill that everyone learns as either a gymnast or a competitive cheerleader is a handstand," mentioned student athlete McKenzie Wilcox. "Through every skill that you do, you do a handstand."
In nearly every whirl, twirl or flip that the acrobatics and tumbling team does in its routine, the athletes perform a handstand, which is why the perfection of this skill is crucial.
Dr. Andrew Karduna, of the University's Orthopaedic Biomechanics Laboratory, explains the science behind the handstand each gymnast performs.
"When you're doing a handstand you need to be able to lock out your elbow," said Dr. Karduna, "and that is actually going to make it easier to do the task, because it's going to take less muscle contraction."
It is important for acrobatic and tumbling athletes to do this to conserve their strength in competition.
"Though we have won two National Championships, it still doesn't get any easier," Wilcox said. "We still have to work from the basics."

That clever little pest, the western corn rootworm, is outsmarting the genetic engineers inserting a Bt protein into corn plants. Apparently Monsanto's attempts to kill off the beasties has just made them hungrier.
That is more than a little problematic since corn is a popular ingredient in almost everything, and genetically engineered crops account for 88 percent of all the corn planted in the U.S. You probably ate some GM corn today. If you ate any of these foods you almost surely did: corn meal, tortilla chips, yogurt, bread, breakfast cereals, "honey" roasted nuts, salad dressings, canned fruits, jams, barbecue sauce and ketchup.
The rootworm infestation is a triple blow to farmers. They were already struggling for survival in the face of massive drought and new superweeds. Now hungry pests are delivering a knock-out punch.
A 2011 study by Iowa State University's Department of Entomology was the first to raise the alarm after finding corn rootworm in some fields. The honeymoon was over, but the extent of the problem did not seem like a reason for farmers to divorce Monsanto corn. Some changes in farming practices could bring it under control.
Then in August 2012 a University of Illinois study confirmed the Iowa State findings. Monsanto's Bt-corn was losing its effectiveness against corn rootworm. In an article in the Daily Illini, entomology professor Mike Gray called it, "an unfortunate consequence of the overuse of good technology."
Farmers in the Midwest had been enjoying high profits from their Bt-corn. They had not been planting refuge strips and had fallen into the practice of planting the same crop in the same field year after year. That was a boon for Monsanto but also for the corn rootworm, which evolved to resist the toxin.
Next: Monsanto goes on the defensive

Thank you Cathryn, for Sharing this!
Good. Monsanto is an evil company.
Elizabeth M. you could not have said it any better!!!
It figures - they have developed super weeds - now super bugs.
When will man (& Big Corps.) realize that nature looks after itself?
Absolutely, excuses for using GMO fall on its own. Dangerous for human is one thing, the other thing is how insect`s can adopt and make things far more dangerous......
Same problem as super-germs developing resistance to antibiotics because we overuse antibiotics. Overuse almost anything and it fails you. Back to hygiene and isolation and better nutrition to raise the ability of the domestic plant or animal or human to withstand the hazards of the pest species.
Could it really be that bad?
It's NICE to see nature fighting back against Monsanto. I wonder if monsanto will take legal action against the corn rootworm?

In Meeting with Army Corps of Engineers, Brown Presses for Faster Timeline on Blanchard River Flood Mitigation Study
Brown Meets with Officials from the U.S. Army Corps Buffalo District, Which Covers Northern Ohio
WASHINGTON, D.C.—U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) pressed for a faster timeline on the Blanchard River Flood Mitigation Study in a meeting today with officials from the Army Corps of Engineers' Buffalo District, which encompasses northern Ohio. Brown met with Deputy District Commander Martin Lewton, Deputy for Programs, Planning, and Project Management Thomas Switala, Chief of Programs and Project Management Ron Kozlowski, and Chief of Planning Major Martin Wargo.
"Phase I of the Blanchard study was delivered to the Army Corps' Buffalo District in July. Given the Findlay community's investment in this project—including hundreds of thousands of dollars committed toward seeing it to completion—I am urging the Corps to finish its review of the study quickly and begin work on the flood control project," Brown said. "This important initiative will help protect homes and businesses throughout Hancock and Putnam counties, which is why further steps must be completed in a timely and thorough manner."
In May, Brown announced $1.4 million in funds for the Blanchard River floor mitigation study. As a member of the Senate Appropriations Committee, Brown has worked to protect the funding for this and other critical watershed management and harbor dredging projects throughout Ohio.

Do you like this story?Tweet
An unbelievably heroic story of a true martyr giving his life to save so many from a suicide bomber. After spotting the disguised terrorist walking straight towards a mosque where hundreds were gathering, he courageously takes matters into his own hands to save his fellow citizens/family/friends. Score one for the Infidels on this one!
There were no soldiers in his path to stop him; no police to alert to the man in women's clothes. There were only villagers. The man dressed as a woman was to be the agent of their deaths. He kept walking down the alley toward the mosque where more than one hundred people were praying, a mass murderer masquerading in a woman's garb.
The prayerful people may not have known he was coming, but we hear the explosions every day. Every single day. Seven days per week. I remember the story told to me by Tennessee National Guardsman of another such man who had grabbed the hand of a nearby child as cover, then walked over to some policemen before detonating himself and the child. I remember the bomber who rammed a car full of explosives into vehicle full of American soldiers in Mosul. The Americans had been surrounded by Iraqi children, and the bomber could have waited a block or two then attack the Americans man-on-man, but instead he chose to blow up the Iraqi kids. Sometimes we see the torn and mangled hunks of flesh. Sometimes their open bodies curl a baleful steam into the cold morning air.
The closer a counterfeit comes to the genuine article, the more obvious the deceit. As the murderer dressed in women's clothes walked purposefully toward his target, there was a village man ahead. But under the guise of a simple villager was a true Martyr, and he, too, had his target in sight. The Martyr had seen through the disguise, but he had no gun. No bomb. No rocket. No stone. No time.
The Martyr walked up to the murderer and lunged into a bear hug, on the spot where we were now standing.

Woods Hole Film Festival
Presented by Woods Hole Film Festival at Redfield Auditorium at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute
July 27 - August 3, 2013
This year's Woods Hole Film Festival, the oldest on Cape Cod and the islands, features five filmmakers-in-residence, a record 33 narrative and documentary feature-length films, and nearly 70 narrative, documentary, and animated films. Besides film screenings and discussions with the filmmakers, the festival features workshops and master classes with the filmmakers-in-residence, filmmaker retrospectives, panel discussions, nightly parties at the water's edge, and concerts, including a kick-off benefit concert featuring the John Jorgenson Quintet on Friday, July 26, at Redfield Auditorium. Recently chosen to portray Django Reinhardt in the film HEAD IN THE CLOUDS, Jorgenson played guitar with Elton John's band for six years and plays with such artists such as Barbra Streisand, Bonnie Raitt and Earl Scruggs.
The festival also continues its tradition of showcasing and promoting the work of independent, emerging filmmakers, particularly those from or with connections to New England and Cape Cod. Many first-time filmmakers are also returning to the festival with subsequent films or as filmmakers-in-residence.
For example, Jay Craven (WHERE THE RIVERS FLOW NORTH) returns with his latest feature, NORTHERN BORDERS, based on the novel by Howard Frank Mosher and which stars Bruce Dern and Genevieve Bujold as a quarreling couple who take in their 10 year-old grandson with humorous and sometimes startling results (August 2). Boston-based Allan Piper (STARVING ARTISTS) returns with his award-wining documentary MARRIED AND COUNTING about a gay couple who celebrate their 25th year together by getting married in every state where gay marriage is legalized (July 30). Festival favorite Bill Plympton returns with his latest animation, DRUNKER THAN A SKUNK, an adaptation of Walt Curtis's poem about a cowboy town that torments the local drunk (July 30).
Several filmmakers-in-residence also return to the festival after either presenting their films or attending as filmmakers-in-residence in previous years. Director James Mottern, who brought Trucker, his first film starring Michele Monahan, to Woods Hole in 2010, returns to the festival to conduct one workshop on breaking into the film business and another on directing actors. He recently finished a Boston shoot of God Only Knows, his second feature film starring Ben Barnes, Leighton Meester, and Harvey Keitel and is currently prepping another thriller set in New England. Documentary filmmaker Heidi Ewing (DETROPIA, JESUS CAMP), filmmaker-in-residence in 2011, and her co-director and co-producer Rachel Grady will conduct a workshop on DIY (do-it-yourself) film distribution, based on their experience self-distributing DETROPIA after they received less than satisfactory offers from distributors when the film premiered at Sundance in 2012.
Two additional filmmakers-in-residence are making their first appearance at the festival: Chicken and Egg Pictures and Working Films founder Judith Helfand, whose BLUE VINYL won the best cinematography award at Sundance in 2002, and Megan Sanchez-Warner, currently executive producer and show runner for "The Real Housewives of Atlanta," who will hold a workshop on storytelling in film and television.
A significant trend this year is films created by, within, and about communities. Oscar winner Ernest Thompson (ON GOLDEN POND), who works out of New Hampshire with a regular community of writers, actors, and producers, brings his group's most recent effort, HEAVENLY ANGLE, to the festival on August 1, with Thompson and a number of the folks involved with the production in attendance. Set in a small town in New Hampshire, the film is about a down on his luck Hollywood film director who shows up to con the town's mayor and residents into putting money into a movie he has no intention of making. NORTHERN BORDER's Jay Craven, mentioned earlier, creates films that celebrate regional character and culture, most often that of Vermont's Northeast Kingdom. Similarly, Australian director Philip Crawford's RITES OF PASSAGE was filmed over the course of three years in New South Wales, Australia and features the trues stories of six individuals from the region in their struggle to grow up amidst a variety of problems, including homelessness and addiction (August 2). Each of these films enlisted their communities to participate in the filmmaking process. Stephen Silha, co-director and producer of the documentary BIG JOY: THE ADVENTURES OF JAMES BROUGHTON and formerly a reporter at The Christian Science Monitor in Boston, also communicates in his films about what makes communities and relationships work. BIG JOY illustrates the power of art and poetry to change lives, using the life and work of pansexual poet and filmmaker James Broughton as a lens (August 2).
Besides the previously mentioned filmmakers with New England—such as Ernest Thompson, Jay Craven, Andrew Mudge, Allan Piper, Stephen Silha, and Maria Agui Carter—regional filmmakers, especially those with a Cape Cod connection, are represented in large numbers this year. For example, Ryan Scafuro, cinematographer and producer for the documentary feature BENDING STEEL, an intimate journey exploring the lost art of the old-time strongman and one man's struggle to overcome the limitations of body and mind that premiered at this year's Tribeca Film Festival, is an Emerson College graduate and former New England Cable News videographer. Greg Cahill, director of the festival entry TWO SHADOWS (and assistant director on the upcoming animated film HELL AND BACK, starring Mila Kunis and Susan Sarandon) Although her short film is set in Ireland, LAMBING SEASON writer and director Jeannie Donohoe was raised in Massachusetts and attended Dartmouth College; many of her producers and crew members either live near Woods Hole or are from New England.
Films made on the Cape or by Cape Cod filmmakers include: Cape born and bred Isaak James's BY WAY OF HOME, a narrative feature shot in Brewster, Chatham and Provincetown about a woman who returns home to work in her family's restaurant (July 29); Eastham-based Joseph Laraja's THE GOLDEN SCALLOP, a narrative feature about three finalists in the Golden Scallop contest on Cape Cod (July 27); Kristin Alexander's MY NAME IS AL, the true story of the man who started the Committee on Drug and Alcohol Dependency, a recovery program for doctors and dentists (July 28); Sky Sabin's ART IS A VERB, a documentary short in which the filmmaker asks for advice from three of the most inspirational people she knows--Stephan Connor, luthier and owner of Connor Guitars on the Cape, Martin Keen, Keen Sandals founder and Focal Upright Furniture CEO, and Mike Fink, professor at RISD and an author (July 29); Natasha Kermani's short documentary ATLANTIS EARTH, an artist's interpretation of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute's Atlantis voyage (July 29); and MASS DOLPHIN STRANDING, a short about 180 dolphins that were stranded on the Cape in the winter of 2012 (July 29).
Fans of George Romero won't want to miss BIRTH OF THE LIVING DEAD, a documentary feature that demonstrates how Romero gathered an unlikely team of amateur actors from Pittsburgh—policemen, iron workers, teachers, ad-men, housewives and a roller-rink owner—to be part of his revolutionary, guerilla-style film NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD. The film shows how the young Romero created a world-renowned horror film that also provided a profound insight into how our society really works (Saturday, July 27, and Friday, August 2). Romero also has a cameo at the end of Matt Birman's and Sam Roberts's A FISH STORY, which stars Eddie McClintock (NBC's WAREHOUSE 13) as a fugitive on the run whose body becomes inhabited by the soul of a devoted father who was killed in a car accident (Saturday, July 27). Apparently Birman and Romero are also old friends, as Birman has worked as a second unit director and stunt coordinator on Romero's films since 2004. Birman and McClintock are in discussion to make azombie movie under Romero's aegis.
Screenings and events are held at a variety of venues—including the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute's modern Redfield Auditorium and the folksy Woods Hole Community Hall—with most taking place within walking distance of one another in compact Woods Hole. Getting around is easy and specific festival parking is available.

Cake Leveling
photo by:jyotsnas-world.blogspot.com
When you look at the final product of your beautiful cake, with all its decorations and flowers, the last thing you want to see is your masterpiece tilting to one side!
Leveling your cake is one of the most important parts of the decorating process. You will need to do this before you ice it becacuse it's MUCH harder to try and do this after you've iced your cake.
There's two ways you can start leveling...
Using a Serrated Knife
If you don't have any fancy gadgets you can choose to level your cake with a serrated knife, which will work just fine.
First, place your cake on a cake board. Now you can either start cutting while moving it with your own hand, or you can place it on a cake stand that turns, which you might find a little easier. You can always try both and see what works for you.
While slowly rotating your cake, carefully move your knife back and forth across the top and try to keep the knife as level as you can while you cut. Remember, less can be more and it's hard to replace cake, so take baby steps when leveling.
Using a Leveler
If you don't feel like using a serrated knife, or you feel like you just wouldn't be able to make it as nice and straight on your own, then you want to have a cake leveler on hand!
Place your cake on the cake board, much like you would when using the knife method. Position the ends of the cutting wire into the notches at the hight you want it to be. This will determine how much you want to take off.
Keeping the legs on the table surface slowly cut into the cake edge using a light swaying motion back and fourth and gently glide the wire through the cake.

The prickly pear plants and flowers were made on a separate piece and the result was not what I wanted. So I cut the plants out and made a new background! See before and after on my blog: www.debbiegeistweidt.blogspot.com.
This is so attractive, I recently saw a lot of these prickly pear plants & thought they would make a wonderful fiber art design....well done.
What a recovery! The texture of the stitching integrates the elements really well. And the bit of green stands out against the other more muted colors.

Living Narrative: Creating Lives in Everyday Storytelling. Harvard University Press (purchase at Amazon.ca)
- Richard Freadman (Author)
Threads of Life: Autobiography and the Will. University of Chicago Press (purchase at Amazon.ca)
Reviewed by Joel Baetz
Near the end of The Stone Angel, as Hagar Shipley looks back on her life and her relationships with her husband Bram and her son John, she arrives at a moment of self-realization: "I was alone, never anything else, and never free, for I carried my chains within me, and they spread out from me and shackled all I touched. Oh, my two, my dead. Dead by your hands or by mine?" Like Margaret Laurence's Hagar, the authors of the books under consideration here are concerned with the revelatory possibilities of life-narratives, what they say about who we are and how we see ourselves. Richard Freadman, in his impressive though sometimes opaque Threads of Life, is specifically concerned with autobiographies and what they say about the human will. Elinor Ochs and Lisa Capps, in their less impressive but at times valuable Living Narrative, are interested in the ways in which conversational narratives are constructed and shape our perception of the past and ourselves.
As an interdisciplinary study, Threads of Life offers a philosophically framed account of autobiography and, specifically, how autobiographies speak about the modern condition of the human will. Although Freadman divides his book into eight chapters, it is better to think about it as divided into three parts. First, Freadman defines his terms and reasons that Western autobiography has always been the ideal site for reflection about the will. Second, he argues that the most influential conceptions of the will in the twentieth century are deeply conflicted: those "cultural prophets" who are seen as champions of human freedom (Nietzsche, Freud, and Marx) offer interpretations of the will that are "profoundly deterministic" while those who deny the presence of the will in theory (Althusser, Skinner, and Barthes) inevitably confirm the presence of the human will in their autobiographies. Third, Freadman reads five autobiographies for their conception of the will. While Ernest Hemingway, Simone de Beauvoir, Arthur Koestler, Stephen Spender, and Diana Trilling offer highly original autobiographies, they are all inflected with the same tensions and conflicts about the will evident in the work of Nietzsche, Freud, and Marx.
Freadman's range of reference to the history of ideas and his careful readings of the autobiographies in relation to each author's body of work and cultural context make Threads of Life a worthy contribution to the understanding of both autobiography and the modern condition of the will. He is perhaps at his best while refuting the claims of postmodernism, with the implicit aim of loosening its grip on literary and cultural thinking, but his more general insights into autobiography's preoccupation with the will are just as valuable.
As much as the scope and thoroughness of Freadman's work make Threads of Life a success, they also limit the study's accessibility. Halfway through his second chapter, Freadman says that he has avoided the signs and symbols of analytical philosophy and focused mainly on literature because "the nonspecialist reader cannot profit directly from" such "highly technical and specialized" work. What he doesn't seem to realize or, perhaps, what he realizes all too clearly, with his inclusion of two appendices, end-notes, and a glossary of terms, is that his broad scope and heavy investment in philosophical discourses restrict his audience to a collection of experts familiar with the history of ideas and interested in autobiography. Although Freadman contends that his study is only a philosophically framed account of autobiography, after extended discussions of and passing references to Plato, Althusser, Schopenhauer, Derrida, Wittgenstein, Hegel, Barthes, Freud, Nietzsche, Marx, Kant, and so many more, one can't help but wonder if the frame looms too large, so large that at times it obscures everything but the broadest brushstrokes of his argument. In the end, Freadman's argument achieves a tension similar to the one he observes in the autobiographies of Beauvoir, Koestler, Spender, and Trilling, a tension between radical contingency "that baffles understanding" and a desire for individual control as well as rational and observable outcomes.
This tension between the contingent and the controlled is also central to Ochs and Capps's Living Narrative. "All narrative," Capps and Ochs write in their introduction, "exhibits tension between the desire to construct an over-arching storyline that ties events together in a seamless explanatory framework and the desire to capture the complexities of the events experienced." This is especially true, the authors go on to say, for the focus of their study: conversational narratives. These narratives that we construct when we recount the day's events or explain our reasons for doing something are exponentially more open than their literary counterparts. Conversational narratives might start out as an attempt to shape events into a straightforward trajectory, but with questions, challenges, and contradictions from the audience these narrative are, in Ochs and Capps's estimation, open-ended and contingent collaborations. After an introduction that proposes a dimensional approach in lieu of a set of distinctive features that all narratives share, Living Narrative devotes each of the remaining chapters to describing one aspect of a conversational narrative: how a person becomes a narrator, launches a narrative, recounts an unexpected turn of events, uses stereotypes and familiar structures to define and configure events, and probes the moral dimensions of the narrative.
To some degree, then, the benefit of Living Narrative is that it drives a wedge between literary narratives, polished and produced by individual authors, and those socially constructed conversational narratives of everyday life. Though Ochs and Capps's understanding of what questions a literary narrative can raise about its own coherence seems limited at times, the authors' tendency to perform what amounts to some logical sleight of hand is more disappointing: as they insist on the difference between conversational and literary narratives and argue that conversational narratives "constitute the prototype of narrative activity," they nevertheless use "[l]iterary critics such as Mikhail Bakhtin, Michael Bernstein, Lawrence Langer, and Gary Morson, and historian Hayden White" to substantiate their claims. Living Narrative also lacks a unifying argument. Ochs and Capps offer brief glimpses of their broad purpose and underpinning assumptions but, unfortunately, the chapters are joined only by loose threads.

I don't see John McCain quoted on the Iraq Study Group in today's Times or Post. But he issued a statement yesterday:
...I have some real concerns with a number of the Group's recommendations:
Our troops should be sent to Baghdad--or anywhere in Iraq--in order to complete a defined mission, not to serve until some predetermined date passes. By placing a limited timeframe on our military commitments, we would only induce Iraqis to side with militias that will stay indefinitely, rather than with the U.S. and Government of Iraq....
Only by cracking down on independent militias, reducing criminal and terrorist activity, and protecting the population and key infrastructure--none of which can be accomplished without more troops--can a political settlement begin to take hold.
Full statement here.

Forgive my relatively conspicuous absence from the blogosphere.
It's been a hectic couple of weeks, but that's no excuse. Anyway, the winter season's in full-force now. Prep and ND have already played once in hockey– which must mean Christmas is close– and the Prep Holiday Classic is less than a week away.
If you're looking for a preview on the Classic, consult this story.
But I digress, ND's defense held off the Jesuits for about 22 minutes on
Thursday night. But then the dam broke. Six second-period goals– four of which were power play marks– lifted Prep 7-2.
The Jesuits improved to 3-0; they'll embark upon the Mt. Saint Charles Tournament in Rhode Island next week.
"We've had some great competition," Prep forward David White said. "We're going to be really challenged up at the Mount. It's going to be interesting."
ND fell to 1-1.
ND goalie Stone Denbok, playing his second varsity game in Connecticut, stopped 27 shots in two periods. Denbok was sharp in the first period, making several impressive saves.
"He played well," ND coach Steve Heatherman said. "I didn't see any softies."
ND's 'D' also held the fort until the first period's final 70 seconds, when Tim Edmonds' scored his third goal of the year.
Edmonds, playing on Prep's third-line with Matt McKinney and Mike Ventricelli, struck for two goals. Prep's No. 3 line has combined for seven goals and eight assists thus far this year.
"They're successful because they work real hard," Prep head coach Matt Sather said.
The game swiftly changed late in the second, though. After play had been
whistled, Edmonds pushed the puck into ND's net, which incensed the Lancers. ND forward Cam Barquinero responded by cross checking Edmonds in the throat, earning him a five-minute major and game-misconduct.
"It was basically my fault," Edmonds said, smiling. "I was putting it in after the whistle."
Heatherman suggested the cross check showed a lack of focus and was OK with the call.
"You can protect your goalie, but your stick can't be elevated," Heatherman said. "That comes with maturity, focus and grit. If you have those things, it works to your advantage."
Sather, on the other hand, thought it was dirty.
"I wouldn't classify it as getting under anyone's skin," Sather said. "I didn't quite understand what was going on there. It's not a play that you want to see ever again."
Prep's subsequent power play netted three goals.
ND's defense and penalty kill, played quite well for the first 20 minutes.
"I thought we did well," Heatherman said. "We're learning."
In fact, after Jonathan Suporn scored a shorthanded goal at 6:50 of the second, I was tweeting that the Lancers penalty-kill was keeping ND in the game. The Lancers killed Prep's first four power plays.
"I thought they were very aggressive," Sather said.
Yet, Prep ended up 4-for-10 on the power play– thanks to the four, second-period man-advantage tallies. The major-penalty left Heatherman uneasy.
"You're just hoping," he said. "But it's hard. Prep's a highly-skilled team, and the boys are trying to compete."
Heatherman said he thinks the Lancers' schedule will help ND grow.
"The nice thing about our schedule is: it's very tough," he said. "The boys have to learn … it's a team environment, and that's what we're trying to preach."
The Lancers play Darien Saturday, still have two games against ND-West Haven, and meetings with Hamden, West Haven and New Canaan.
ND will also meet Prep again on Feb. 9.
"We'll get them again," Heatherman said. "Hopefully the boys will learn."
There was a 26-second moment of silence for the victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary shooting before the game. Two players– one on each side– are from Newtown…. Prep beat ND for the ninth straight time dating back nearly five years. The Lancers' last win over the Jesuits came Feb. 9, 2008…. ND goalie Scott Kline stopped all 14 shots he faced in the third… Ten different Prep players registered points. Connor Henry had three, Kevin Brown had two, both of which were goals.
I sincerely thank all of you for reading and hope each of you have a merry Christmas.

Sustainability :: Climate Change
Canada Withdraws from Kyoto Protocol
7:22 AM MST | December 13, 2011 | Alex Scott
Canada's environment minister Peter Kent has announced that the country is withdrawing from the Kyoto Protocol, the world's only legally binding instrument set up in 1997 for curbing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Kent says Canada is invoking its legal right to withdraw. The move comes just one day after marathon United Nations talks concluded in Durban, South Africa to secure the 'Durban Platform' a legally binding program for GHG emissions from 2015 onward. "The Kyoto Protocol does not represent the path forward for Canada,"...

Recycling - Separating the Plastic Bottles out from the Rest
I've recently begun to separate my plastic beverage containers (aquafina, lipton diet green tea, diet pepsi, and so forth) from the rest of the trash and I've been amazed at a couple of things. First of all, just how many drinks we go through in a week. Second, how much space these containers actually take up and how much longer it takes a kitchen garbage can to fill up when you're not throwing plastic containers into it.
A couple months ago, I read an article that stated that plastic beverage containers are actually becoming a real environmental concern, mainly because they take up so much space at landfills. I have to admit, it was difficult for me to personally grasp the problem. However, when I see the number of empty containers collected from my own household in just one week, I have to say I'm now a believer.
The following article provides some really interesting information. First off, almost half the increase in caloric intake, since the seventies, has come from sweetened beverages of one kind of another (mainly soft drinks I'm sure).
Not surprisingly, the incidence of obesity, high blood pressure, and type II diabetes is soaring through the roof. Secondly, however, the article states that 70 percent of the storage capacity in landfills is being taken up by empty water bottles.
What to do about it? I don't know. I don't believe it is at all practical to think that we can get away from using plastic bottles for drinks. They are too easy to ship and store and too convenient for the consumer. Realistically, does anyone think we'll stop using them? I think the answer, then, has to revolve around recycling.
Two years ago, I read about something called thermal depolymerization. Picture a machine where things that originate from petroleum (plastics) enter one end---and out the other end comes usable fuel. I haven't heard much about this technology lately, but, perhaps, it will come into play at some point in the future.

I've never kept macs before (but I do have 6 coming pretty soon) and understand they aren't technically considered a blackwater (soft & acidic) species, but they do come from waters that were tested pretty close to blackwater specs. However, the same can be said of albimarginata, and I keep and breed them in water that is ph 7.6 and ppm 160, which is not as soft or acidic as their home waters.
I do the same as Brian and place peat in a bag and toss is right in the tank. IAL or oak leaves are also handy to leech tannins into the water.
Since you don't have an RO system, you might consider buying a small trashcan (Brute has a nice lill 10 & 20 gallon can)and fill it with RO water, reconstitute it with Kent RO Right, and toss is a large filter media bag (or nylon stocking) full of peat. When you do your water changes the water will be the same parameters. This is how I pretreat my water for blackwater species and my reservoir stays at ph 5.9 - 6.1.

Variety of music performed at Muddy Water festival
Rapper Blu gives Becky Meekis a special seat during one of his performances.
DJ Ken G performing.
The crowd at this year's Muddy Water Music Festival during Blu's performance.
Musicians from all walks of life descended upon Sandy Lake First Nation for the 32nd annual Muddy Water Music Festival (MWMF).
This year's festival, which ran from July 30 to Aug. 2, included out of town acts like Big River, Saskatchewan rapper Blu, Norway House's Drink Me Pretty, and tribute artists for Katy Perry and Lady Gaga, as well as Gary Kehoe as Johnny Cash.
Sharness Henry, guitarist for Drink Me Pretty, told Wawatay News that this was the band's third time playing at MWMF.
"It's our third time back at the festival, and it was better than ever," Henry said.
Henry said that the band saw familiar faces in Sandy Lake, and also met a lot of new people.
"The Muddy Water Music Festival is a festival filled with warmth and good-hearted people," Henry said. She explained that she liked the varieties of musical genres at the festival, which ranged from styles like heavy metal rock, to country, and to rap.
"As musicians, we never put each other down and always push each other to be the greatest," Henry said.
This year's MWMF featured acts like Wass Clearwater from Manitoba, Free Admission, and Contraband. The festival also showcased local acts like Rez Metal, Rat House, Deafening, Bear Paws, Lil Lucan, These Kids, and DJ Ken G.
Roy Kakegamic, who works at Sandy Lake Community Development Services as the economics development officer, said that the group Contraband was comprised of musicians over the age of 60.
"One of the reasons we got them was because of the fact of their age, that they're still playing," Kakegamic said. He explained that one year, the festival featured a band whose members were kids ages 10-13 years old from Kenora. "So this time, we went to the other end of the spectrum and got the other guys (in Contraband)."
Kakegamic said that they recruited a few people to help out with emceeing the event.
"We are trying to encourage young people to get used to public speaking, to be able to talk in public and convey the messages to the community members," Kakegamic stated.
Kakegamic said he was happy with this year's MWMF.
"It went pretty good, it went well. We were blessed with no rain this year, so that was good," he said. "And they liked Blu. The kids liked Blu quite a bit."
Henry said that it was great to see the crowds, especially the children.
"It's always nice to see the children (in the crowd) filled with excitement, wanting to be on that stage some day," she said. "Muddy Water Music Festival is surely a place to come back to. It's always a great time."
Kakegamic said that while helping the Lady Gaga tribute artist find some moccasins to purchase, he spoke to an Elder who talked about how she enjoyed the Gary Kehoe tribute to Johnny Cash, who played an earlier show around 5 p.m.
Kakegamic said that next year they would be planning on having earlier shows for the Elders to attend, with members of Wass Clearwater letting him know that they can also play Gospel music.
"We would like to add that (the early shows) next year," Kakegamic said.
He also said that they would be looking into having another children's entertainer, something the festival had been lacking for a couple of years.
Kakegamic said that they have singer-songwriter Fred Penner on stand-by as a potential entertainer next year, but it is a matter of waiting to work out details with chief and council first.
Kakegamic coordinated this year's festival with the help of Joe Fiddler, Delores Kakegamic, Joshane Fiddler, Robinson Goodman, Danny Linklater, Ozzie Kakepetum, Darrin Fiddler, and Alex Fiddler.

Walk summary
A very delightful thing, is the Otter Trail, running for some 42km along the marvellous coastline of South Africas Tsitsikamma National Park: an intense experience in true wilderness.
You will enjoy beautiful and varied scenery, walking by the sea where possible but spending much of the time on the hills behind the seaside cliffs, with ravishing and completely empty view it is a rare thing to see other people once away from the overnight huts.
Enjoy the roiling grandeur of the Indian Ocean, caves, cliffs and waterfalls, especially the multi-layered fall near the beginning. (This is a good half day walk for those short of time: take a picnic, enjoy the falls and the deep pools at its bottom.) Paddle and snorkel in tidal pools and leave your prints on magical beaches.
The park boasts fascinating wildlife (much of which you are, needles to say, unlikely to see): the Cape clawless otter (hence the trails name); leopards; genets and caracal; buck; monkeys and baboons. And, in the sea, dolphins, whales, seals and a multitude of birds.
And beautiful and interesting virgin forest and South Africas unique fynbos above the cliffs and behind the beaches, with lovely wildflowers at the right time.
This is a 4.5 - 5 day trek. There are four set overnights on the trail, with hut space for up to 12 available. With places so limited and the trail so popular, it can get very booked up, so reserve well ahead!
This is quite a demanding walk, with a lot of steep ascent and descent. Also, there are 11 river crossings, with the Bloukrans river toward the end requiring care and planning: only attempt it at low tide unless very experienced and a strong swimmer.
We should mention, though, that clambering over slippery wet rock can be a trifle dreary, and there is too much of this on the first day to in particular, when you can hanker after a high, silent mountain.
You have to carry all your kit. Bring your own food, cookers, selling bags, water bottles and purification tablets. And, with river crossings to make, take great care to be sure your kit is waterproof stored, especially cameras and the like.
Have a look at www.footprint.co.za/otter for a brilliant summary of the walk, with some excellent photos. What a delightful and inspiring website, by the way the absolute best of the internet. A bit like Walkopedia, really.

One of the first duties David Lockwood assumed upon taking an assistant's position with Kentucky earlier this year was scouting the Memphis, Tenn., area for potential prospects.Lockwood was on the Memphis staff from 1995-99, so he knows the city well and has established strong relationships with coaches in the region.Some of those connections are already paying off.DeAndre Jones, a 6-foot, 223-pound linebacker from Memphis University School, says the Wildcats are one of his early favorites in the recruiting process."I'm really liking Kentucky right now," Jones said.
