Comments about EK Floating Eyeglass Retainers:
It works well to keep your glasses afloat, however the foam float is a little too bulky and is not always comfortable. I used it for kayak touring and found that it bothered me after while. I think it would be much more suited for white water use where it is more likely to lose your glasses.

Beaumont/Port Arthur
Beaumont police arrested one man for car theft and evasion after he allegedly rolled a stolen car into a canal in the early morning hours of Wednesday, March 26.
A car theft in Port Arthur and subsequent car thefts related to the first carjacking report led Lafayette authorities to arrest one man who ended up stopping at a Louisiana hospital.

It needs to be checked if CSS and SVG share the same unit types for <length> and <angle>. This is important for the transform primitives.
The units are not necessarily the same at the moment. Just as a comparison for

SVG: 'deg', 'grad', 'rad'
CSS: 'em', 'ex', 'ch', 'rem', 'vw', 'vh', 'vm', 'cm', 'mm', 'in', 'pt', 'pc', 'px'

most popular devices of 2014 are flaunting an IR blaster - a neat, yet often neglected functionality. Actually, the Samsung Galaxy S5, the LG G3, and the HTC One (M8) are but a few of the more popular smartphones that sport such a hardware feature. Thanks to it, you can control almost all of your household gadgets that are equipped with a IR receiver, i.e., TV sets, set top boxes, air conditioners, projectors, multimedia systems, air conditioners, you name it.
Of course, you need an app in order to make use of this neat feature, and Smart IR Remote is among the best ones. It does not only allow you to control a plethora of supported IR-enabled devices, but also comes with some head-turning features. One of the latest functionalities that the app scored allows you to issue commands to your household devices with the aid of Google Now. You got it correct, Smart IR Remote now fully supports the voice assistant. After you've turned the feature in the Settings menu and launched Google Now (with the aid of the "Ok, Google" hotword), you only have to say the desired command and Smart IR Remote will take care of the rest.
Want to turn down the volume of your TV with a voice command? Okay, you can do that. The temperature's too high and you want to cool down a bit by turning the AC on, but both the remote and your phone are not close enough? Well, no problem. All in all, this recently-acquired trait is nothing but neat for all those avid users of Google's voice assistant.
Smart IR Remote fetches a $6.99 price tag. However, you should also take into consideration that at the moment, the app officially supports only select Samsung and HTC devices. The LG G3, in particular, is also supported to some extent, as the support for LG's flagship is still in beta – expect certain issues.

(Adds unemployment rate in fifth paragraph.)
Sept. 15 (Bloomberg) -- U.S. mortgage rates fell for a second week to the lowest on Freddie Mac records as a slowing economy and concerns that Europe's debt crisis is worsening drove investors to the relative safety of Treasury bonds.
The average rate for a 30-year fixed loan dropped to 4.09 percent in the week ended today from 4.12 percent, Freddie Mac said in a statement today. That's the lowest in the McLean, Virginia-based company's records dating back to 1971. The average 15-year rate fell to 3.30 percent from 3.33 percent.
Yields on 10-year Treasuries, a benchmark for consumer loans including mortgages, are near all-time lows amid signs that the U.S. economic recovery has stalled and the euro region is struggling to contain its debt burden. Low borrowing costs have done little to improve the housing market as foreclosures mount and the unemployment rate remains above 9 percent.
Falling rates are "helping a little but not as much as you would expect, given how low they are," Celia Chen, a housing economist at Moody's Analytics Inc. in West Chester, Pennsylvania, said in a phone interview. "The central problem right now is that job growth has slowed to almost zero."
No new jobs were added in August, the Labor Department said Sept. 2. The unemployment rate remained at 9.1 percent for a second straight month.
Default notices sent to delinquent homeowners surged 33 percent in August from the previous month, according to RealtyTrac Inc. Total foreclosure filings, which also include auction and home-seizure notices, rose 7 percent from a four- year low in July, the Irvine, California-based data company said today.
Lowest Since 1950s
Data from the National Bureau of Economic Research measuring Federal Housing Administration loans indicate that long-term borrowing costs are the lowest since the 1950s, according to Chad Wandler, a spokesman for Freddie Mac.
Mortgage applications rose for the first time in four weeks as rate declines encouraged purchases and refinancing, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association. A gauge of refinancing climbed 6 percent in the week ended Sept. 9, while the purchase index gained 7 percent, the Washington-based group said yesterday.

Maglev: It's baaaaack
Whatever the Japanese term for "boondoggle" is, it fits the latest attempt to bring to America magnetic levitation trains, which still make no financial or practical sense — even with, as The New York Times reports, Japan's government offering "to cover several billion dollars in costs."
That offer — as bad a deal for Japanese taxpayers as maglev always has been for U.S. taxpayers — is an indication of Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's desperation to boost Japan's economy and high-tech standing. He's pitching a new maglev system that's reached a record 350 mph in tests but faces deep, familiar-sounding skepticism at home about cost and demand.
The Northeast Maglev, a Washington, D.C., company, wants to combine Mr. Abe's offer with public — U.S. taxpayers, beware! — and private funding for such a New York City-Washington maglev line. Its advisory board fittingly includes "Fast Eddie" — former Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell.
Abe has offered a free guideway and propulsion system between Washington and Baltimore — about 40 miles, too little distance for record speed to mean anything. And if the rest of the line isn't built — a likely scenario — that 40-mile stretch would be merely a curiosity.
There's a reason why Northeast Corridor high-speed train proposals, maglev or otherwise, have gone nowhere since Amtrak's 150-mph Acela debuted in 2000: They fail commonsense cost-benefit tests — even with a multibillion-dollar "sweetener" from Japan.

Best CD Rates: Sallie Mae Bank CD Rates 12 Month CD Rates at 1.19%
The banking division of the student loan company Sallie Mae is still offering some of the best CD rates available right now. Sallie Mae Bank is advertising bank CD rates in terms of only 12 months, 36 months and 60 months. Of course the bank's highest CD rates are on 60 month certificates of deposit.
5 year CD interest rates are currently at 2.07% with a CD interest yield of 2.09%. While that rate isn't the highest CD rate available on a 60 month certificate of deposit that rate does beat most rates.
Find the best CD rates at banks by searching here: CD Rates at Banks.
Sallie Mae Bank's 12 month CD rates are currently advertised at 1.19% with a CD yield of 1.20%. That rate is sightly higher than 12 month CD rates at Ally Bank which are currently at 1.18% with a CD yield of 1.19%. Sallie Mae Bank CD rates are lower since we first reported on their rates a year ago. Just over a year ago 12 month CD rates were at 1.54% with yields at 1.55%.
36 month bank CD rates at Sallie Mae are advertised at 1.29% with a bank CD yield of 1.30%. Sallie Mae Bank's best CD rate deal is on their 12 month certificate of deposit so you're better off investing in the 12 month term.

Family website causing stir "I'm doing this so residents of Lincoln can make an educated decision in November. There is a school bond coming up for $163 million and there are open board seats," Avelar said. "Do they trust these representatives' judgments
By: Carol Feineman, News Messenger Editor
Avelar asked to remove deposition transcipts
Rigo Avelar's lawsuit with the Western Placer Unified School District took a new development Tuesday as he was advised to take down a related website or he'll face legal action. The six-day-old website is www.leamans-fools.com. Avelar received a letter Tuesday from his attorney, requesting that he remove e-mails from his attorney and the deposition transcripts. Under the website's testimonial icon, Avelar has posted depositions taken in May and June of Lincoln High assistant-principal secretary Charlene Emerson, former high school assistant-principal Janice Elizabeth Smith, high school Principal David Butler and the school district's deputy superintendent of educational services Mary Boyle. Sanchez-Millan's deposition from a year ago is also up there. Avelar and his wife were dismissed June 30 from a Superior Court of California lawsuit they filed, along with their daughter, against the school district. The Avelars sued the school district for "failure to supervise" and "negligent infliction of emotional distress." The lawsuit is still open with the daughter, according to the school district's attorney Carol A. Wieckowski last week. She said the parents were dismissed "because the court found that they didn't have any legal basis for suing the school district." Avelar said he is appealing his and his wife's dismissal because "our case was thrown out not because our allegations were not true but because our attorney didn't show up to two court dates. And the school is claiming they have no duty of care to parents. We never had our day in court." The daughter was a Lincoln High School junior who was sexually assaulted by former Marine recruiter Victor Sanchez-Millan in 2008. She met the recruiter at a school job fair in April 2008 and the recruiter signed her out of class and also frequently drove her off campus during lunch. Sanchez-Millan was convicted and sentenced to one year in jail for contributing to the delinquency of a minor and unlawful sex with a minor. On Tuesday, The News Messenger asked Western Placer Unified School District Superintendent Scott Leaman why the district intends to take legal action and why it wants Avelar to take down his website. Leaman responded that he "was told to refer all questions to the school district's attorney, Carol Wieckowski." "The website is fine. What I want him (Avelar) to take down are the depositions," Wieckowski said Wednesday. "He's tainting the jury pool. That's the problem. If the people read the depositions, they form an opinion and have biases and prejudices. I have no problem with his website, that's his freedom of speech. The trial's on Valentine's Day. I don't want to try this case in the press or on the Internet." As of Tuesday night, Avelar had no plans to remove documents from the website. "I'm going to leave up until the court orders me to take it down," Avelar said. "Why is the school district so afraid of the residents knowing the truth? These are depositions taken under oath." The website went live Saturday. Avelar estimates he has spent up to 12 hours a day since last Thursday adding content to the website. "I'm doing this so residents of Lincoln can make an educated decision in November. There is a school bond coming up for $163 million and there are open board seats," Avelar said. "Do they trust these representatives' judgments to make decisions that are based on the students' best interests or are they in their own political best interests?"

As long as Abner Mares isn't allowed to do what he does best.. Low Blows then it should be an EZ win for Ponce Deleon but if Abner Low Blow Mares is allowed to pull an agbeko then it'll be a long night for Ponce Deleon… I'm hoping Low Blow wins so Rigo, JuanMa or Gamboa can get their hands on this dirty bastard…Posted May 1, 2013 12:11 pm
Well, I favor Mares in this matchup but it's going to be a tough fight for both men.Posted May 1, 2013 9:53 am

Salido isn't even a part of the discussion of serious title-contention at feather. why the f'k would JuanMono whose been KTFO by Salido twice in his own backyard and would be again if anyone would even pay to watch Salido do it a third time.

Yeah..at this point, JuanMa is in the back of the line…KO'd TWICE by Salido, back to square one homie. As for Ponce, he's done well, he's rebuilt himself a bit and has a REAL shot here. This should be a good scrap.Posted April 30, 2013 11:57 am
E, that is a reasoned analysis on that fight its RARE that you actually see that on this site… I would never argue that Broner blew out or dominated Ponce but alas Ponces body attacks are often not gonna garner the same attention or "Oooohhhh Ahhh" effect that flashy headshots will… EVERY fighter wins a close one in his career and that was Broners against a World Class foe… To his credit he has NOT made much of anything close since then… Broner has moved up to WW and and this point its safe to say he would kill Ponce De Leon…Posted April 30, 2013 11:56 am

Ponce didn't beat Broner's @ss or vise versa. Broner did receive some very generous scorecards(a gift) in that fight & it wasn't the first. Ponce deserved a win or at least a draw/rematch. The modern promotion machine likes to overlook these fights. Don't forget Ponce came up a division as a former Super Bantam title holder to face the heavily backed house fighter & won/drew with him UN-officially.Posted April 30, 2013 11:40 am

This fight will boil down to whether or not Abner Mares is allowed to fight dirty or not.. If he isn't Ponce Deleon may pull an upset if Abner is left to fight rough and dirty then Ponce Deleon will have a tough night…Posted April 30, 2013 11:04 am
Ponce De Leon did NOT beat Broners ass he gave a young fighter a tough night that ultimately made him a better fighter.. By the latter rounds when Broner was taking measure of Ponces long winging shots he was tagging him hard to the face… Ponce is a World Class fighter who proved to be an invaluable piece of the now extremely difficult puzzle that is Adrian Broner look at how he destroyed Champion De Marco at a HIGHER weight and how former 140 pounder Gavin Rees was blasted out in SHORT (no pun intended, ok maybe a little) order…. Mares vs De Leon is going to be a FUN fight and part of an EXCELLENT fight card showcasing boxings PREMIER star and a man who was "Fighter of the Year" when he was 21 and is P4P #1 at the age of 36 Floyd Mayweather Jr….

Broner may run in to trouble again when he fights a legit opponent, but though Paulie has skills I'm just not sure his feather fists will discourage Broner at all. Then again, it is WW now and not lightweight so Broner may be in for a surprise, even against Paulie, who did knock out Senchenko last time for his belt.Posted April 29, 2013 10:03 pm
JuanMa did ice Ponce De Leon, but to be fair Ponce has bounced back nicely. Among other things he gave Adrien Broner absolute hell in their matchup. All the same, I expect Mares to soundly beat Ponce De Leon on Saturday and render the whole question a moot point. Sad thing is, as long as GBP and Top Rank ignore each other we'll never find out who is number one in this and many other weight classes. But Mares is up there, and figures to solidify his status as top 3 on Saturday night.Posted April 29, 2013 10:00 pm

All that being said JuanMa did knock this Mexican dafkoutCold in round 1 right??? and he wasn't shot like he is now… Maybe we'll see a JuanMa vs Abner Low Blow Mares if he survives Ponce DeMojon… and what ever happened to that other Mexican JuanMa left crumpled up in the corner..

Didn't that Ponce Don guy take Adrien 'The Granny Basher' Broner to school a couple of years ago? Or am I confusing him with another Mexican chap? Actually, that reminds me.. I'm fairly certain Broner also got tooled by another Mexican earlier on in his career too. I think the chap's name was Quintero or something. IIRC, he put a real beat down on Broner despite the fact he was making his pro debut and hadn't even had a completely non-existent amateur career, which is even more shameful and embarrassing for Broner when you take into consideration he an extensive amateur career .. in excess of over 300 amateur (not including his 'unlicensed' fights against frail old ladies of course back when he was literally fighting for a purse).Posted April 29, 2013 9:13 pm

he may be the underdog but i'm going with Ponce by TKO, any round. i'll concede that Mares should be favored. he's a quick-fisted, unrelenting, bad-ass little vato. his in-your-face combo-punching, movement, and stamina makes him a favorite to swarm Ponce but when he gets reckless, Ponce is going to make him Pay; that's just Ponce's fight-game; and he's actually improved instead of declined. with the exception of the flash-KO v. Lopez, he's relatively unscathed. few dare engage him in a shootout. he may be at his peak. for these reasons i'm going with Ponce. he'll be able to jab and stun Mares with his southpaw Left. Mares will dig-in but Ponce will put in the work to the head and body and still have the Punch to stun Mares later to finish the fight. anyway, that's what he'll have to do to defeat Mares. this is another staged collision between two evenly-matched locomotives (e.g., Rios v. Alvarado). i'm going with Ponce.Posted April 29, 2013 9:12 pm
I like Abner to win also but I have a different view of his capabilities; to me, he's a good all around boxer, intensely tenacious with a super strong mental make-up & will to win. Look at his face in that picture, a face that says:i don't care how big you are & how hard you punch, bring it on! Mentally, this kid is up there with BHops, Floyd, Bradley & Holyfield; the word "losing" has never crossed this kids mind…Mares is a winner.Posted April 29, 2013 8:41 pm

I'll take Mares. He knows how to use MMA tactics and get away with it. That shows HIGH IQ and SKILL although its not Boxing SKILL. Nevertheless he finds a way to land Punches which is the name of the Game. He nullifies his opponents Offense by employing MMA tactics and even street Fight tactics….But he knows how to get away with it SO more power TO him….. Mares by ANY means necessary.Posted April 29, 2013 8:14 pm

"Didn't Juan . . ." who? JuanMono!? that boy is busy working his way up the ranks of Mexican cab drivers since getting his ass KTFO in his own backyard. he no longer has the clout to challenge the likes of Ponce or even request a hometown bout and he BETTER keep the F'k away from Mares who is a quicker, stronger, younger version of Salido. Mares could possibly kill Curious Juan if they ever met. Ponce got cold. no big. Ponce got back in the gym and has steadily worked his way back into contention. including his most recent win v. Jhonny Gonzalez. these are title-bouts and they're not handed out like welfare entitlements. Btw, how do you starve a Puerto Rican to death?

it's very difficult to imagine Ponce being defeated by Mares' swarming strategy and difficult to imagine Mares absorbing too many flush-shots from Ponce. Ponce has demonstrated confidence (if not elite proficiency) in his boxing ability and even Mares must know that it would be suicidal to simply charge down the barrels of Ponce's cannons.i suspect that either one or both of these guys is going to execute a counter-intuitive fight-plan (e.g., Canelo v. Trout or Stiverne v. Arreola) that snuffs out the fuse of the mayhem that they're expected to deliver v. each other. it's an intriguing matchup and while i know what to expect, there's a part of me that's not expecting it. however, if either fighter begins to fall too far behind, they will revert to the styles that made them successful, which will make for an explosive collision of fighting ability and determination.Posted April 29, 2013 5:56 pm
Broner beater v Mares.Posted April 29, 2013 5:45 pm
This will be fight of the night. Don't underestimate Ponce De Leon. He is a true puncher, and if Mares comes forward and goes toe to toe, he better be careful.Posted April 29, 2013 5:22 pm

Mother, children found slain in Oroville
OROVILLE (AP) -- Oroville police found a woman and her two toddlers dead in their apartment, victims of an apparent homicide.
A few hours later, Butte County sheriff's deputies found the woman's boyfriend dead in a parked car. Authorities think the boyfriend, 28-year-old Samuel Gonzalez, killed himself with a shotgun.
The 30-year-old woman and her children -- ages 3 and 2 -- were found dead Wednesday afternoon. Their names were not immediately released.
Oroville Police Chief Kirk Trostle said Gonzalez was a suspect before he was found dead.
Police said the couple apparently argued earlier in the day. Gonzalez was then seen leaving the area in the woman's car.
Investigators found a neighbor's apartment had been broken into and a shotgun stolen.

U.S. pilots share skies with former Portuguese classmates
By 2nd Lt. Allie Delury, 31st FIghter Wing Public Affairs / Published February 18, 2014
Capt. Eric Kitaif and Lt. Col. Joao Rosa swap stories following a Feb. 12, 2014, large force exercise mission brief at the 301st Fighter Squadron. Approximately 260 personnel from the 31st Fighter Wing arrived in Monte Real Air Base, Portugal, in support of REAL THAW 14 -- a two-week close air support exercise hosted by the Portuguese air force. (U.S. Air Force photo/2nd Lt. Allie Delury)
Capt. Michael Piazza briefs Capt. Rui Silva Feb. 12, 2014, for an upcoming large force exercise mission at Monte Real Air Base, Portugal. Comparable to Operation Red Flag hosted at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada, REAL THAW 14 will attract approximately 4,000 military personnel and 44 aircraft from the U.S., Netherlands, Portugal and NATO. Piazza is a F-16 Fighting Falcon pilot with the 55th Fighter Squadron and Sulva is a Portugese C-130 Hercules pilot. (U.S. Air Force photo/2nd Lt. Allie Delury)
AVIANO AIR BASE, Italy (AFNS) --
Two Air Force captains sat in the 301st Fighter Squadron, one of two Portuguese F-16 Fighting Falcon squadrons at Monte Real Air Base, Portugal, while reminiscing about their days at Undergraduate Pilot Training in Laughlin Air Force Base, Texas.
One an F-16 pilot, another a C-130 Hercules pilot, both men finished each other's sentences when talking about the various people in their classes, their early and rigorous training schedules, and transitioning into what mission they were going to fly for the last day of REAL THAW 14. Both men were seemingly unaware that their uniforms did not match.
They were also seemingly unaware that they belonged to two separate militaries.
"I think we all share the same vigor for flying," said Capt. Michael Piazza, 555th Fighter Squadron F-16 pilot. "You notice it when we hang out in their squadron areas after the flying and debriefs are over because we just sit around and talk about it."
Now, years after graduating UPT, Piazza and other pilots from the 555th FS are reuniting with their Portuguese classmates -- this time in the skies over Portugal.
"For us Portuguese pilots, the UPT training in the states is superb, even to this day," said Capt. Rui Silva, a Portuguese C-130 pilot participating in REAL THAW 14. "The year and a half that I spent there is what I'll be talking about for the rest of my career."
Portuguese F-16 pilots have two opportunities to train with American pilots: as a student at various UPT bases or as an instructor pilot at Luke Air Force Base, Ariz. Silva met Piazza during UPT at Laughlin AFB in 2006 and reunited with him years later at Monte Real AB for REAL THAW 14.
"For any Air Force pilot, it's good to train somewhere else," Silva said. "If you're exposed to a different environment and a different culture, you adapt and figure out ways on how to function with other people -- whether it's something small like in-processing or something big like air training.
The year Silva attended UPT was the second year since the 1990s that the Portuguese have participated in UPT exchange programs with the U.S. After taking a nine-week English course in Texas, Portuguese pilots went to their respective training base to train alongside the Americans and compete with them both in the classroom and in the skies.
"Rui is an extremely good pilot," Piazza said. "He graduated at the top of our class and beat out all of the Americans. We were impressed by him, and he deserved it."
When a Portuguese pilot returns to Portugal from UPT, they often bring back more than basic flying knowledge and standardized military procedures. Fighter pilot jargon, mannerisms and other American traits often slip within the walls of the two Portuguese fighter squadrons.
"In Portugal, our focus used to be on flying the mission, so our briefings and debriefings were much shorter," Silva said. "Now, we've been able to implement that debriefing mentality from the U.S. and apply it to much of our air force."
Some of the more experienced pilots within the 555th FS are also reuniting with their Portuguese counterparts -- reminiscing not on their time as students, but as instructor pilots.
"My friend was a Portuguese instructor at Luke Air Force Base teaching Americans," said Maj. Michael Stephen Hurt Jr., an F-16 pilot with the 555th FS. "Because of that exchange, which is a prestigious thing for (the Portuguese), he is now the 201st Fighter Squadron commander here at Monte Real Air Base."
Hurt and his friend, now Lt. Col. Joao Rosa, taught at Luke AFB for three years and lived down the street from one another.
"His kids are the same age as mine and our wives became friends, so we were very close," Rosa said. "You're living in a different country so everything is new and exciting, but it wasn't too different teaching a pilot in the U.S. versus in Portugal."
According to Rosa, the experience not only bettered him as an instructor, but showcased the many similarities between U.S. and Portuguese pilots.
"The top-notch pilots still have the same drive and will to learn, so the attitude of the pilots is pretty much the same," Rosa said. "Regardless of where the training takes place, training an F-16 pilot is not that different. One of the greatest things about this jet is that we fly it pretty much the same way all around the world."
As REAL THAW 14 comes to a close, pilots from the 555th, 301st and 201st Fighter Squadrons are reminded of the importance of participating in international exercises and training with other NATO countries.
"It's difficult to coordinate missions due to language barriers and because people do things differently," Hurt said. "These exercises allow people to see what other countries do so that when you go out and fly, you learn to trust one another and their capabilities.
Whether in a classroom setting in Texas, a simulated wartime environment in Portugal or during combat operations in the Middle East, interoperability between various countries is constantly being tested.
If Silva was asked in 2006 if he ever thought he would be flying with Piazza in Portugal, he siad his answer would have been, "It's not 'if,' it's 'when.'"

Hi all,
I've been away a while. the reasons.... I was laid off, took a part time job outside of my profession with lousy hours and pay. Then I found another job in my profession. Spent a lot of time in training/traveling. It was not just my being on this forum, My cycling has suffered too. The only positive side of the part time job was I could commute by bike. I even had enough old parts laying around to build up a single speed to make the short 5 mile commute more challenging.
So hopefully I am back and frequenting my usual threads. As I recall, those were the Electronics, Folding, SS/fixed, and maintenance forums.

I'm head-over-heels for a girly called Jill.
I might ask her out at the top of the hill.
Mortified! She's in love with my other friend, Bill.
Now my crown is recovering but my heart never will.

The prompt for Day Nine was…
"Today's prompt was suggested by Bruce Niedt. Here's Bruce's explanation: take any random song play list (from your iPod, CD player, favorite radio station, Pandora or Spotify , etc.) and use the next five song titles on that randomized list in a poem."
I changed the prompt a little, and decided to write a poem inspired by the first song that came up on shuffle. The song that came up was Thin Line by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, and in it there's a lyric that sums up a thought I've had for a long time that goes…
"The greatest trick that the devil ever pulled
Was convincing women that they looked
Better in their makeup"
I have seen you made up and made down.
I have seen the hours spent
plucking this,
tucking that,
blushing this,
brushing that,
curling this,
twirling that,
patting this,
plaiting that,
applying this,
drying that,
and all it does is hide what I think is true beauty.
And make us late to everything.
I've fallen a little behind preparing for two weddings. The prompt for Day Eight was…
"Today, let's rewrite a famous poem, giving it our own spin. While any famous poem will do, if you haven't already got one in mind, why not try your own version of Cesar Vallejo's Black Stone Lying on a White Stone? If you're not exactly sure how such a poem could be "re-written," check out this recent poem by Stephen Burt, which riffs on Vallejo's. Happy writing!"
I went for a wedding theme, turning W.H. Auden's 'Stop the Clocks' from a funeral poem into a more celebratory marriage poem. Hope you like it.
Reset the Clocks
Reset the clocks, repeat the vows you've heard,
Prevent the kids from talking with a quiet word,
Silence the wedding march and with shuffled bum,
Bring out the couple, let the marriage come.
Let aeroplanes circle sweeping overhead
Scribbling on the sky the message They Are Wed,
Let them throw confetti, let flowers fill the air,
Let the bride pick all the petals from her hair.
She is my North, my South, my East and West,
My working week and my Sunday rest,
My talk, my song, my noon, my midnight;
I think this love will last for ever: prove me right.
The candles are wanted now: light up every one;
Bring out the moon and turn down the sun;
Dance away the night-time and sweep up the floor.
I don't know if I could love you any more!
I enjoyed writing the post from yesterday so much that I again ignored the prompt and did another children's story! Enjoy…
Hansel and Gretel
The tale of Hansel and Gretel is blurred.
The truth isn't like any story you've heard.
The two little kids are the cause of the trouble;
they ate half a house and reduced it to rubble!
They murdered a little old lady as well,
and yet parents think it's a story to tell
to young ones at bed time for falling asleep
(whatever's the problem with just counting sheep?).
Their Dad was a woodcutter – I guess that much is true –
and his second wife, Mandy, was fed up with his two
greedy young children who ate the house dry,
and she hatched a smart plan to get food-levels high.
She thought a few days with the kids out the way
would allow her to cook and feed her and Jose
(that's the woodcutter's name if you couldn't have guessed).
His first wife was German and to her behest
she chose both the names of their two vile kids,
despite options of Rose or Juan (Jose's two bids).
Alas, I get sidetracked. I've left you perplexed!
Let's return to the story, and hear what happened next.
Mandy convinced Jose with persuasive talk;
they took both the children to the woods for a walk,
but Hansel was wise and he saw through the plan,
so he dropped some sweet wrappers and a trail began.
When they finally got kid-free and made their way back,
they heard Hansel and Gretel retracing their track
and upon reaching home, both the kids had caught up
expecting Mandy to make them some supper to sup.
Angry and tired, they waited until night
when Hansel and Gretel were asleep fairly tight,
and they carried both children to the depths of the wood;
a couple days' forraging would do them some good.
When they woke the next day, at six in the morning,
picked sleep from their eyes, and finished their yawning,
they noticed the place that they'd just woken in;
they had bracken and heather stuck onto their skin.
They were lost in the forest; it all looked the same.
They shouted vile swear words I don't want to name.
But then, through the thicket, they saw a surprise –
what looked like a Sweet house in front of their eyes.
They made their way to it, rang the doorbell they saw
and an elderly lady came to answer the door.
"Hello there, dear Children. It's lovely to meet
a couple of people who think my house sweet."
"I had kids of my own, but they left decades back.
They got fed up with beds that were made of flapjack,
and the sweetness of showers once powered by honey,
and the chocolate coins I gave as pocket money."
The children said, rudely, "We don't care about you.
We've just come for a nibble, and then bid you adieu."
The lady was hurt by their nasty retort
and made off to the kitchen for a stiff glass of port.
The children were greedy and – as hours flew past –
they munched through her aerial and radio mast.
By teatime they'd eaten the windows and doors,
and – a day after starting – ate the walls and the floors.
The old lady was livid. "YOU ATE THE WHOLE LOT!
And you know what the kids did? (It's vile, mind you)
They killed the old lady and ate her up too.
Then Hansel remembered his phone in his pocket.
He keyed in the digits you need to unlock it.
In the palm of his hand was the key to survive;
he had all sorts of apps on his new iPhone 5.
He found Google Maps and stuck in his post code
and it guided them both to the end of their road.
While approaching the house, they saw Jose and Mandy
with a warm apple pie and a half each of Shandy.
The story ends gruesomely (I'll just summarise it;
I can't bare the ending, I simply despise it).
They burnt down their home with the parents inside,
and were heard by their cackles while both of them died.
They burnt down the forest as an insult to Dad
(and you thought that the Pigs from last poem were bad!)
They grew a new forest of long stinging nettle
(which I hate! Thanks a lot, evil Hansel and Gretel).
The last whereabouts of the two are unknown.
They evaded capture, and continue alone.
If you see two young teenagers, with one iPhone 5,
you'll know now to run or you won't stay alive.
And if you think that your children are awfully rude,
they talk with their mouths full, they play with their food,
take this tale as caution – be wise with deterrents
or you'll suffer the fate of the two children's parents.
I completely ignored the prompt today, and instead wanted to recreate a fairytale or nursery rhyme. Here's my take on the Three Little Pigs.
Three Little Pigs
You may think a story of three little pigs,
all fleeing from Wolfy, cohabiting digs,
is noble and funny – a little bit charming –
but the truth is disgusting and slightly alarming.
This nice little tale was rewritten (and spoiled)
to end with the villain in hot water, boiled,
after sliding the chimney of Piggy's abode.
Now it's time for the truth – a truth we're all owed.
And those who are thinking Roald Dahl had it right
are sadly mistaken, and face correction tonight.
In Dahling's defence, he was truthful in parts,
and so this will be where our correct version starts.
The story begins with three pigs leaving sty,
standing and waving their Mother goodbye.
Their purses are full of a thick wad of notes,
and stored in the pockets inside of their coats.
At a fork in the road, they all go separate ways
after choosing to meet up in three busy days.
Pig One heads for farmland, Pig Two to the woods,
and Three to the City to pick up some goods.
Pig One met a farmer, with hay made in bales.
Pig whipped out a pistol (which so rarely fails)
and robbed the poor farmer of all that he had…
oh, I forgot to mention – these Piggies are bad.
I guess we should pause at our first misconception –
Pigs aren't little cuties – they're full of deception.
Those long curly tails distract us in youth –
Pigs are ruthless killers, and that is the truth.
So back to our story; Pig One got the hay
(and I'll let you imagine the Farmer's okay).
With the threat of his gun, and a background in crime,
Pig One's house of hay was built in record time.
And here, pause again – it's our next misconception –
Pig's just aren't the choice for a welcome reception,
but young Wolfy Jones was oblivious to this –
he approached Pig One's house in an ignorant bliss.
He had simply popped by to welcome his neighbour,
and would soon be regretting his kind act of labour.
He reached for the doorbell, and – at the ding-dong –
Pig One opened up, thinking something was wrong.
The Wolf, bearing gifts, let his mouth form a grin
but Pig One was distracted with the long teeth within.
In fear, Piggy One slammed the door quickly shut
taking half of the skin off of poor Wolfy's foot.
Wolf howled in pain, and – nursing his toes –
did that huff-and-puff breathing that everyone knows,
as if deep-breathing inward and outward again
is the nice simple way to relieve all the pain.
Meanwhile, in the woods, Piggy Two was engaged
with the lengthy procurement of timber, well aged.
Why lengthy, you ask? The same thing as Pig Un –
Pig Two had a forester in the sight of his gun.
After cleaning the mess of the forester's guts,
Pig Two got to work on his neat row of huts.
With open-floor planning, and a woodwork-based mind,
it wasn't too long 'til the huts were designed.
A half a week later, Wolf limps to the door –
his feet having healed a bit from before.
Again he approaches with a smile and a gift,
but Pig Two is a sceptic, and judgement is swift.
Having heard from Pig One, Piggy Two is prepared.
He had made bows and arrows with the wood he had spared.
Upon sight of the Wolf, Piggy Two caused him harm
firing arrows at Wolfy, and striking his arm.
Young Wolfy despairs – this is just not his week,
and he fled to the Doctors to sort his physique.
Meanwhile, Piggy Two rang his brother (Pig Three),
"You'll never believe who just visited me!"
It's time to catch up with Pig Three's path so far;
he got to the city by stealing a car,
and when he arrived he had no trouble getting
a three-bed apartment a young lady was letting.
He had used a fake name on the contracts he signed,
and left references that nobody could find,
and then paid the deposit in counterfeit dosh
(What a dreadful young Piggy! Oh my good golly gosh!).
Some days and weeks later, with young Wolf on the mend
he thought he'd reach out to a final new friend.
This time in the city; what harm could lurk here?
Well I guess we'll find out…Wolfy's getting quite near.
He's at the end of the street, he's at the front door,
he's climbing the stairs to Room 40; fourth floor.
He knocks and he waits, and he fumbles his hands,
and the door opens slowly on where young Wolfy stands.
He's midway to smiling, when a brick grazes past.
Another just misses, a third follows fast.
The fourth and the fifth hit the Wolf in the face,
and the sixth hits the Wolf in a…delicate place.
The seventh and eighth hit the back of his head,
and before double-digits the Wolfy is dead.
Pig Three starts emerging; he checks the Wolf's 'beat,
Pig One and Two join him, and stand by his feet.
"Who wants his head?", Three asks One and Two,
"He's definitely dead, so thank you and you".
"We think it's for you; you killed him and all!
His head would look great on that back bedroom wall."
And that is the truth of our Three Little Pigs,
they all joined the City in Piggy Three's Digs.
They ate Wolfy's liver, his brains and his heart,
his head is wall-mounted, they consider it 'art'.
The three little pigs are not charming and sweet,
they killed innocent Wolfy and butchered his meat.
So next time you hear any cute fairytale,
think 'is this the truth, or does lying prevail?'
Welcome to Day Five! The prompt for today said:
"Today's prompt is a little complicated, which is why I saved it for a Saturday, in the hopes that you might have a little more time today than during a weekday. I think this is a very rewarding form, though, so I hope you'll enjoy it! Today I challenge you to write a "golden shovel." This form was invented by Terrance Hayes in his poem, The Golden Shovel. The last word of each line of Hayes' poem is a word from Gwendolyn Brooks' poem We Real Cool. You can read Brooks' poem by reading the last word of each line of Hayes' poem! (In fact, you can do so twice, because Hayes, being ultra-ambitious, wrote a two-part golden shovel, repeating Brooks' poem). Now, the golden shovel is a tricky form, but you can help keep it manageable by picking a short poem to shovel-ize."
With all of that in mind, I started thinking of short poems that I love.
The one I settled on was one of my favourites by Robert Louis Stevenson that goes…
The world is so full of a number of things,
I'm sure we should all be as happy as kings.
Read the last word of each line and you should see it. Here goes!
your oyster", she said optimistically, "so
potential and possibility. A
immeasurably beautiful things
are waiting for you. I'm
only one of those is that 'you' and 'me' can become 'we'."
She paused. "But I know you think oysters should
be left alone, pearl and all."
She continued, "So if not oysters, what could your world be?
What else could your world be as free and exciting as?"
I thought for a moment. "I just don't need my world to be a mollusc to make me happy.
I'm sure there are many more suitable things my world can be as unrealised and intriguing as,
like an unopened gift, an unwritten letter, or a country's unborn kings."
The prompt for Day Two was as follows…
"There are many good poems based on myths. Lots of these use Greek or Roman myths. Consider Tennyson's Ulysees or this more modern example by A.E. Stallings. But today I challenge you to write a poem based on a non-Greco-Roman myth. You could write a poem inspired by Norse mythology, or perhaps by one of these creatures from Japanese legend. Every time and place and culture has its myths and legends, so there's plenty to choose from. Happy writing!"
Growing up, my favourite legend was always that of Robin Hood, particularly as Disney's film was the best thing that's ever happened.
I thought I'd put a different spin on it, and write my own 'truth behind the legend' by talking to Robin's mum.
Robin Hood's Mother
I once met the mother of young Robin Hood.
She told me she thought he was up to no good.
"He's out using weapons, he's not paying tax…
can't fault his commitment; it's direction he lacks."
"At school, he stood out with his brains and his charm.
He was strong in the head, in the heart and the arm,
and at no Parents' Evening did they lead me to think
he'd fall in with those lads who are merry with drink."
"He was destined to work in the pharmacy biz,
but got hung up on Marian, whoever she is.
And of all of the people to wage a war on?
He had to pick royalty – our lovely King John."
"He may over-tax us a little – it's true –
but without it there's no NHS there for you.
And I hardly think it is enough of a reason
to plot such a ghastly display of this treason."
"No, Robin and I don't speak too much these days.
I'm tired of all his intolerable ways.
If my thieving son's reading, then know that I hature
for Robin by name, and Robbin' by nature."

Sometimes when the scale does not move nor your dress/pants size you have to figure out if it is a plateau or you. Always be honest with yourself as the honesty is not for the other people but for you.
True awareness of why the weight isn't coming off begins with 100% total honesty about the quantity of everything we eat (weight, ounces, or serving size), the content of what we eat (how much sodium, sugar, etc. is in the food), and how much truly active exercise we're getting on a daily basis. Fudging to ourselves about any aspect of our plan only harms our SELVES! It's time to be REAL and Focus on being honest with ourselves so we can succeed and be who we want to become!
Go here and sign up even if you've not yet reached a goal. The people on this team are so supportive and helpful. They amaze me with their great attitudes and help and honesty!!It's like a "family affair" with them. Yell "help" and someone answers! It's that easy. Have a great day!!
One starts with self. And the basic ingredient is HONESTY. Without it, one will only be fooling oneself.May God Bless Everyone, Vic, Team Leader of SP "God's Family".

With a week of back-to-back Asian food and culture events all over New York City, The LUCKYRICE Festival brought together some of the best chefs and mixologists from across the city, and the world, and left the sold-out crowds with heavy bellies and light heads. Again proving itself among the best food festivals in America, it's hard to believe that creator Danielle Chang has only been at it for three years, and is now bringing it to Las Vegas June 23 and Los Angeles August 10.
Some of the highlights of this year's festival were a Chinese Wedding Banquet hosted by Chef Susur Lee, where he served up -- among other delicious dishes -- a scrumptious grilled lobster, his wonderful Asian Slaw, and a light yet flavorful soup with a foie gras dumpling. James Beard Award winner Andy Ricker, who recently came east from his Pok Pok in Portland hosted a traditional Thai dinner at his newly opened Pok Pok in Brooklyn, and Pichet Ong hosted a super spicy dinner at The James Beard House.
Another notable participating chef was Theresa Lin from Taiwan, now living in Los Angeles. Lin is perhaps the most famous chef in Taiwan, and she's been dubbed "The Julia Child of Taiwan" because of her easy-going style and her many TV shows and cookbooks. Lin was the consulting chef for the original film Eat, Drink, Man, Woman and is currently the consulting chef on the upcoming film Life of Pi.
At The Grand Feast, my favorites were Lin's octopus, Damien Herrgott's macarons in Asian flavors (among them were wasabi, sesame, and caramel-miso), and Jehangir Mehta's pork dumpling. But really, with over 30 chefs, it would be hard to name every dish that I loved (and I ate them all)!
For me, the highlight of LUCKYRICE 2012 came at the very end, the last cooking demo of Talk+Taste, when Shuichi Kotani of Soba Totto took the stage and prepared perfect soba noodles from scratch. A small, high-energy chef, Kotani started with buckwheat and water in a large bowl, working rapidly with his hands, and getting his whole body into it. When he was deep in the process, he appeared as if he was both dancing and praying at the same time, often with his eyes closed.
Rather than rattle on describing the wonderful events, check out these two slide shows. The first is a pictorial overview of all the events, and the second is an in-depth look at Shuichi Kotani making soba noodles. If you're hungry for more, check out the LUCKYRICE blog recapping more of this year's festival.

Updated at 12:25 a.m.
Bryce Harper's biggest hit in two weeks may have come at a price, but the Nationals' young star doesn't believe the left thumb injury he suffered Friday night sliding into third base on a clutch triple is serious.
"I didn't think so," Harper said following the Nationals' 11-1 win over the Padres. "When you hit it, you know whether it's pretty serious or not. It just swelled up a little bit, and that was pretty much it."
X-rays taken on Harper's thumb were negative. He'll be re-evaluated Saturday morning, at which point the Nationals will decide whether he can play the third game of this weekend series or whether he'll need more rest.
"I haven't looked at it yet, but it just kind of twisted on him," manager Matt Williams said. "But all indications are he's OK right now."
With the bases loaded in the bottom of the third Friday night, Harper drilled a 3-2 fastball from San Diego lefty Robbie Erlin off the out-of-town scoreboard in right-center, clearing the bases and giving the Nationals a 5-0 lead. He slid hard into third base to complete the triple and clapped his hands in celebration before clutching his hand and shaking it for a few seconds.
Harper remained in the game at that point and scored on Jose Lobaton's RBI single two batters later. He took his spot in left field for the top of the fourth and had two balls hit his way in the inning, once attempting to throw behind Will Venable on a single, then failing to cleanly scoop a bloop hit by Nick Hundley.
When the top of the fifth began, Nate McLouth took Harper's spot in left field.
"Went out there to the outfield, swelled up a bit," said Harper, who had the thumb wrapped in a bandage after the game. "I thought we were in a good spot (up 6-0 in the game) and Matt did, too. Got in, got some treatment on it. Put some ice in there and see how it felt."
Said Williams: "He could've continued to play tonight, I think, but we thought it best to get on it right away."
Harper was enjoying his best offensive night of his season, also driving in a run with a first-inning infield single. His four RBI in the game were a career-high, the bases-loaded triple his biggest hit since a third-deck home run on April 9.
His abrupt departure put a damper on that performance, but Harper isn't worried it will throw off his timing at the plate.
"It sucks, but I feel like my swing is where it needs to be," he said. "I feel good. Staying on a lot of pitches and having good at-bats. Hopefully I come in tomorrow and it feels pretty good."
