A minor-injury crash involving a dump truck and another car clogged state Highway 14 for a few minutes Monday morning.
The crash was reported shortly after 8:30 a.m. on eastbound Highway 14 at milepost 5, just west of the Ellsworth Road exit.
Washington State Patrol spokesman Trooper Ryan Tanner said the dump truck tried to make a lane change and almost hit another vehicle. The other car swerved out of the way and hit the jersey barrier. The dump truck flipped onto the driver's side and came to a rest on the shoulder, Tanner said.
No one was sent to the hospital after the crash. The dump truck driver was cited for making an unsafe lane change, Tanner said.
The right lane of the highway was closed for about 5 minutes, Tanner said.

The good news is that "Sound and Sense" is short, and the rhyme makes it fun to read even if you're not always sure what it means. Depending on your tolerance for classical references and your level of comfort with intense sound play, you may get a stitch in your side on this hike.

Clippers re-sign Glen Davis to new contract
The Clippers have re-signed free-agent power forward Glen Davis to a one-year contract for the veteran minimum of $1.2 million.
The Clippers brought back a big body on Saturday, re-signing forward Glen "Big Baby" Davis, who appeared in 23 games last season and will give the team a strong front-court presence.
Davis reportedly signed a one-year deal worth $1.2 million.
The Clippers added Davis last Feb. 24 after he was bought out by the Orlando Magic. Davis was reunited with coach Doc Rivers, who coached the 6-foot-9 forward with the Boston Celtics and won an NBA title in 2008.
With the Clippers, Davis showed a deft touch around the basket, averaging 4.2 points and 3.0 rebounds in 13.4 minutes. In the postseason, he had some good stretches, averaging 3.8 points and 2.8 rebounds.
With Davis returning, Rivers now has a bench that includes center Spencer Hawes, who signed a free-agent deal worth $23 million over four years, and guard Jordan Farmar.

The Jordan Spiz'ike iD gets a boost of wilderness with the introduction of elephant print in 'Flip' fashion. You now have the option of building your Spiz'ikes with a full elephant print upper in a variety of colors, with nubuck and patent leather being added to the toe-box and heel for even more 'Flip' action. If you need some ideas, we've come up with some interesting designs, so take a look at a few of what we've whipped up and head to Nike iD now to get your Spiz'ike iDs commissioned.

Nottingham, MD
To: Attendees at Boardgames at the Ritz Feb 9
From: Nichole Sanderson
Together with Baltimore's playground, we are approaching 70 guests. Rather than leave over half of you to find your own parking, I have decided to hire another valet for the afternoon of February 9th. Note: This fee is billed directly to the host not the individuals parking.
If you were planning on offsite parking, please valet park here at the ritz carlton and contribute some of the money you planned to spend on parking to the valet fund that will be in the game room. I would appreciate it if people would contribute a few dollars to help cover this cost. This contribution will not be a requirement to attend, but would be appreciated by your host. Again, if you're driving, please park here and contribute once you get to the game room.
Thank you,
Nichole Sanderson

text: Jeff Squibb Monday Harness Races Postponed By Associated Press • Aug 11, 2014 WUIS The Illinois State Fair has postponed Monday's harness races because of unfavorable track conditions. The races will now be run Wednesday starting at noon. Nearly three dozen horses were quarantined briefly over the weekend because of concerns they may have been exposed to a virus. The (Springfield) State Journal-Register reports that officials lifted the quarantine Saturday, after the animals were cleared of having the equine herpes virus. State Fair Officials: Can't Follow State Law Due To Budget Cuts By Hannah Meisel • Jun 30, 2014 Wikimedia Commons Illinois' two state fairs did not comply with the law last year, according to a recent state audit -- and budget realities mean that'll happen again this summer. The audit found that both the fairs in Springfield and DuQuoin overcharged entrance fees for horses. But the Department of Agriculture says it's a consequence of the state contributing 200-thousand dollars $200,000 less toward the purse. The audit also found that the DuQuoin fair only held three out of the five prescribed days of horse racing. No Heightened Security For Butter Cow By Sean Crawford • Aug 14, 2013 Bill Wheelhouse/Harvest Public Media Organizers of the Illinois State Fair say they're not changing security procedures after vandals threw paint on a butter cow at the state fair in Iowa. Jeff Squibb is a spokesman for the Illinois Department of Agriculture. He tells The Pantagraph (http://bit.ly/1cB7iD1 ) that a refrigerated case holding the butter bovine is locked all the time in the fair's Dairy Building, while a webcam streams live images of the sculpture.

Those of you who know me know that I'm a very proud Georgian and that I like to say that I'm southern by birth and bulldog by God's grace.
However, I must confess that I have come to love the Bluegrass state. Though I will never root for a blue nation sports team, I nonetheless find the state and people to be quite pleasant and enjoyable.
My wife and I have lived in Campbellsville for about six years in two different stints and we love the community. Taylor Countians, for the most part, are good, God-fearing, generous and friendly people.
Fourteen firefighters with two fire trucks responded to a house fire in the early morning hours Friday.
According to a news release from the Campbellsville/Taylor County Fire Department, firefighters responded at 3:36 a.m. to the blaze at 112 1/2 Davis St.
Assistant Chief Bill Hall stated that the fire started in a bathroom at the rear of the house. Doris Cundiff is the owner of the house, and the heaviest fire damage was in the kitchen and bathroom.
Campbellsville Police have arrested two Elizabethtown men allegedly attempting to steal scrap metal from the former Fruit of the Loom building.
According to a Campbellsville Police report, police responded to a call that someone was seen entering the building at 3 a.m. Wednesday.
Sixfrido Mendez, 25, and Jared C. Fox, 20, were arrested and charged with theft by unlawful taking more than $300, possession of burglary tools and criminal trespassing. They were arrested at the scene and were lodged in the Marion County jail.
Educators in Campbellsville and Taylor County are being showcased on Campbellsville University's TV-4, discussing news from their schools. The shows are part of Campbellsville University's Education Today series in the ongoing Dialogue on Public Issues. Their discussion will be broadcast on Wednesday, Aug. 6 at 1:30 and 7 p.m.
Small Claims Filed
08-S-063, filed 7/2/08; Michael L. Clark of South Columbia Avenue in Campbellsville v. Michael Abbott of New Columbia Road in Campbellsville. Plaintiff alleges defendant owes for motorcycle, $1,000 and $91 in court costs.
08-S-064, filed 7/2/08; Loretta Moss of Twin Creek Drive in Campbellsville v. Vester Kessler. Plaintiff alleges defendant owes for rent and damages, $800 and $91 in court costs.
Taylor County will receive $30,000 in County Road Aid emergency funds.
The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet announced last week that Taylor County Fiscal Court will receive the money to replace the drainage structure on Wilson Creek Road.
Taylor County Fiscal Court is responsible for administering the work.
Due in part to the number of banks that have closed this year, customers are becoming increasingly concerned about the safety of the money they deposit.
Local bank officials, however, say there is no reason to be alarmed.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. reports that seven banks in the United States have closed since Jan. 1 and 90 more are listed on a quarterly watch list of troubled banks - those considered to be on shaky financial footing, according to the FDIC.gov Web site.
In contrast, three banks failed in 2007 and four in 2004.
The Lake Cumberland District Health Department recently announced that all residents of its 10-county service area will soon receive a packet of information in their mailboxes.
"We have put together some terrific resources for our communities," said Shawn Crabtree, executive director of Lake Cumberland District Health Department.
Two Campbellsville residents have been arrested and charged with selling drugs.
Orvey C. Harris, 56, and Betty A. Harris, 54, both of 10331 Saloma Road, were arrested at 8:42 p.m. Saturday, July 26.
According to court records, the Harrises are accused of selling a third-degree controlled substance.
They pleaded not guilty to the charge in Taylor District Court on Monday, July 28.
Bond for the Harrises was set at 10 percent of $5,000 each. Preliminary hearings were set for Monday, Aug. 11.
Campbellsville Police Det. David Tucker investigated.
From the outside, the building may look empty. Inside, however, construction workers are building up a sweat.
Construction work is continuing on the Taylor County Detention Center, slated to be completed by end of this month or middle of next.
Taylor County Jailer Rick Benningfield said he's excited about the opening but didn't realize just how much work would be involved.
Benningfield said more painting needs to be done, along with putting in some ceilings and doing other "little" jobs.
"They're really working hard," he said. "I hope by October we'll be in."

Pressure Washing the House, Prepping for Painting, and Beginning Kitchen Cabinet Installation
Project: Bob's Shingle Style Home, Episode 17, Part 1
With the decision made on what color to paint the house, bob takes a look at the prep involved on the exterior. Danny's restoring some old windows using springloaded balances. We take a trip to New Holland, Pennsylvania, to the Heritage cabinet factory, then back at the site, Bob's beautiful new cabinets are installed in the kitchen.
- Part 1: Pressure Washing the House, Prepping for Painting, and Beginning Kitchen Cabinet Installation
- Bob looks at a large exterior paint color sample on his home in Cambridge, MA, and watches the paint crew pressure wash the house. Bob describes the tools involved in prepping a surface for new paint. Then Bob visits the kitchen, where Todd Allen and Jim Shiels install the first of the Heritage cabinets, explaining how they deal with the idiosyncrasies of a 100-year-old house.
- Part 2: Touring a Custom Cabinetry Factory and Reviewing Plans for the Kitchen
- Part 3: Restoring Old Double-Hung Windows using Spring-Loaded Balances
This project centers around the remodel of Bob Vila's own gracious Shingle Style home in Cambridge, MA. It's a house with a lot of history and beautiful architectural details, many of which were obliterated in remodels of the 50s and the 70s. On the centennial of the house's construction, Bob gets together the best talents in the business to recreate and renew it to its former glory, making some important modifications along the way that will transform this into a dream house for today.

As for events, those would happen after I got the rewards system in place and felt like the club needed a bit of a change of pace (something to spice it up, to be looked forward too or whatever) So far it seems people are joining pretty regularly which is awesome!
Hm. I feel like things are a little off topic... how bout a new one?
A little similar to one of the starter topics,
what is your favorite concept of a bug pokemon, and why?
Mine for instance is paras/parasect being based on parasitic fungi. One kind, for instance, controls an ant's brain while draining the bug of energy, controlling the ant's movements. When the host is sucked dry, the mushroom leaves spores on the bug's eggs. As creepy as that is, I find it really cool, especially how they executed it. (like how parasect's eyes are white with no pupils) It kinda makes me wonder what parasect would actually have been like as a species if said fungi never inhabited the host. Another concept I really like is Heracross. The fighting type is very cool :D
I like to concept of Heracross as well. I love how those beetles' irl are interpreted into Pokemon -- known to be strong and tough irl, we see that Heracross in Pokemon is also pretty hardy and a fighting type to match the bill. I also particularly like Ariados and Spinarak, simple and sweet.

In May of 2013, the Louisville Independent Business Alliance teamed up with Metro government, leaders from the Southwest Dream Team and the South Louisville Business Association to launch the 'keep South Louisville weird' campaign, which is much more than just a slogan. The group has conducted and analyzed studies, gathered facts, and started education efforts so that area residents know why it's important to support independent businesses. Now, the group is hosting an event where independent business owners are invited to learn more about South Louisville.
This will be a no-pressure type of event that will give an overview of the South Louisville business climate and "set the stage" so that when business owners are ready to expand, they will have some knowledge of the excellent opportunities in South Louisville. Presenters will include Councilwoman Vicki Welch, Barbara Nichols of the South Louisville Business Association, Vince Jarboe of the Southwest Dream Team, Bennett Knox of the South Points Scenic Area and Jefferson Memorial Forest, and Doug Lowry, involved citizen.

Saddam Hussein's Alleged Crimes
Saddam was executed for ordering the killings of 148 Shiite Muslims in 1982, along with other crimes.
Saddam Hussein was executed for ordering the killings of 148 Shiite Muslims in 1982. Here are some other crimes Saddam had been accused of:
- Sept. 22, 1980: Iraqi forces invade Iran, launching an eight-year war that costs hundreds of thousands of lives on both sides. Saddam has been accused of using chemical weapons, including mustard gas and nerve agents, against Iran.
- Aug. 2, 1990: Iraq invades Kuwait after accusing it of stealing Iraq's oil through wells pumped under the two countries' border. Beaten back by invading U.S. forces, retreating Iraqi troops set fire to hundreds of Kuwaiti oil wells and release millions of gallons of oil into the Gulf.
- 1991: Saddam is accused of brutally suppressing uprisings by Kurds and Shiite Muslims, soon after U.S.-led forces drove Iraqi forces from Kuwait.
- Saddam's government has been accused of carrying out a campaign of forced deportations of Kurdish and Turkomen families to southern Iraq, displacing hundreds of thousands throughout the country.

SPARTAN IV by LordHayabusa357Watch
©2014-2016 LordHayabusa357
SPARTAN IV soldier in MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armored Generation 2. These SPARTANs became mass produced after the Human-Covenant and can be deployed rapidly in the battlefield. Armed with the M395 Designated Marksman Rifle.
Note: Its Chiefs armor with multiple Reach helmets fused together and minimized the armored biceps.
Garry's Mod
So nostalgic!
Where can you find Halo 4 Spartans, I can't find them anywhere.
It is so sleek and realistic, I would love to have exactly that armor in Halo 4, exactly the way I would like my body to look if I where a Spartan IV/Freelancer... It looks fast, nimble an efficient... So dark and deadly... Damn I love this pic... And I thank you for having increased my love for Halo... You're a Genius...
OMG! This looks so real!
I can barely see it. Lighting is one third of any image. Uncreative lighting is a poor choice.
Not being able to see the armour very well is all part of this image, making the armour more ominous looking.
very cool
Did you re texture Chiefs armor?
..or is it post edit?
..or is it post edit?
I like your Spartan 2 armor modification
Epic! I hope you do more like this one!
Amazing work!!
Nicely fused. My hat is off to you.
Wicked Job!!!
Nice work
Awesome job!
Damn this is high res. Great job! XD
Very nice. The Spartan in this piece has a gritty tough appearance that is enhanced by the dark setting of the scene. Awesome job!
Very cool.
I like it.
wow looks good
Oh man, I would love to see you do Izzac's suit.
Very cool
Still amazed by your work.
Wow very IMPRESSIVE render! I love background and lighting!
Awesome job buddy.
omg my fave helmet. nice job putting these together.
is this on the workshop?
Rendered with? and modeled in?
On a personal note. I really don't like the GEN 2 Armour that the SPARTAN-IVs use as to me it looks like a mass produced job, that is quantity over quality, and looks a bit crude when compared to the Mark V [B] and Mark VI (my favourite), especially the way the armour is 'bolted' up to the wearer which could be seen as a weak spot to 'chip' the armour off, in a matter of speaking.
On the artistic side, very nice work pulling off the 'Recruit' helmet with Reach helmets!

According to reports Mel was greeted by a whole lotta boo hiss boo after she hit her buzzer mid-stand-up performance by an AGT hopeful. The trigger happy moment arose when the contestant in question made a joke about African American taxi drivers being, "More entertaining than other taxi drivers."
Whilst the audience and the rest of the judges lolled a lot, Mel was less than impressed saying, "I found it really offensive. There was no need to do a stereotypical black joke. It was not funny."
Instead of supporting her point Scary Spice's fellow judges told her to lighten up and amid boos from the crowd Howard Stern told her she was lacking a sense of humour, whilst Hedi Klum said to the contestant, "There will always be jokes made about being black and white... I agree with you that we should laugh about it."

Poltergeist II, Directed by Brian Gibson, 1986
Everyone's favorite paranormally-plagued family is back. Now living with dear old grandma, the Freelings are doing their best to forget the events of that culminated in their home collapsing into itself like a dying star. But when a mysterious preacher enters their life, a familiar dread comes over them. And when little Carol Ann once again receives messages from the spirit world, on her toy telephone this time as the family has since abolished television, it seems the Freeling's bad luck has followed them.
I'm sure we're all familiar with the stigma of sequels. I wasn't expecting lightning in a bottle with the almost entirely unsung follow up to the seminal
Frozen, Directed by Adam Green, 2010
A group of friends decide to spend their weekend skiing at a local resort. Dan sees this as the perfect opportunity for his best friend Joe to bond with his new girlfriend Parker; Joe having not previously warmed to her. This attempt at forced camaraderie is thwarted by the fact that Parker is an inexperienced skier so the majority of their day is spent on the bunny hill. When Joe convinces Dan to go on one last real run before the resort closes, Parker decides to step her game up and try the run as well. They arrive at the ski lift just as they are about to shut it down and convince the attendant to let them go up one last time. What happens next epitomizes the worst case scenario.
I love Frozen, and as an apparent Adam Green detractor, that is saying something. I find Hatchet too aggressively stupid to be entertaining and Spiral strikes me as pretentious. But Frozen has such a simple quality to it that allows Green to focus on the little moments he is capable of delivering so well. It still harbors some Green tendencies that drive me bazonkers, every conceivable moment of silence filled with the most inane babbling I've ever heard, but even that is scaled back considerably. The quiet desperation of their predicament and the delightful agony of the slow escalation of the danger indicate to me a horror director who is beginning to mature and really come into his own. The shot of each set of lights switching off behind our oblivious, stranded protagonists was a beautiful touch.
The Seventh Sign, Directed by Carl Schultz, 1988
Abby Quinn has had a rough life. She has tried and failed many times to have a baby and, upon losing her last child before birth, attempted to kill herself. But things began to look up for Abby as her most recent pregnancy seems to be going very well. But then a mysterious stranger rents an apartment from her which coincides with a series of bizarre events that seem to have been foretold by the book of Revelations. Abby becomes convinced that not only is the life of her child in danger, but that all mankind may be on the brink of apocalypse.
There are so many things to like about The Seventh Sign and yet all of them seem squandered by its desperately tear-jerky ending. I also think Michael Biehn turns in a great performance as Abby's husband. I like that it explores international signs of the end of the world and that the battle for humanity gets narrowed down to an undead Roman soldier and Jesus reincarnated as a creepy German. But then none of that is really connected to Abby's child as you might suppose. So ultimately, the only reason for her character to be pregnant is so that we get this fabricated ending designed to elicit tears from the audience and thus fool them into thinking the movie is better than it is.This is the same ending that also reverses the apocalypse in a truly inexplicable fashion. All in all, I'd have to say The Seventh Sign is the best horror film that the Christian News Network never made.

My question is will there be more ranks in Xenonauts than there were in X-COM. I know you guys don't want to make the game bloated, but I felt like 5 ranks wasn't enough (Game play and realism wise. What military only has 5 ranks).
I got one more sub-question, what's the first rank going to be. I was never fond of Rookie, it doesn't sound official enough, It should be Private.

The Double Standard on Religious Violence
If you followed media coverage of the horrible shooting in Norway this summer, you probably ran across the controversy over whether violence committed in the name of religion was interpreted differently if the perpetrator self-identified as a Muslim or a Christian. That's a mouthful, but read on: we have data to prove that there is indeed a double standard on religious violence, which our CEO Dr. Robert P. Jones explains in his latest article for his blog at the Washington Post On Faith, "Figuring Faith." As usual, here's a teaser:
When the news of a bombing in downtown Oslo, Norway, was closely followed by the shocking mass shooting at a teen youth camp on the island of Utøya, major news outlets were quick to pin the blame for the attacks on Muslim extremists. The New York Times briefly reported that a terrorist organization called "Helpers of Global Jihad" had claimed responsibility, while the British newspaper The Sun declared that the events were "Norway's 9/11." Hours later, it was clear that these early reports that the violence was related to religious extremism were correct, but the religion with which they associated the violence was wrong. The perpetrator turned out to be a blond-haired, blue-eyed Norwegian, Anders Behring Breivik, who publicly identified himself as Christian on his Facebook page and also posted online a 1500-page ideological manifesto in which he declared himself to be a "cultural Christian" crusader standing up for Europe's "Christian culture" against the forces of "Islamization."
This revelation re-opened a fundamental question: are those who carry out acts of violence in the name of a religion true followers of that religion, or not? A new survey from Public Religion Research Institute, and a new joint report by PRRI and the Brookings Institution, reveals that Americans literally apply a double standard when answering this question, depending on whether the perpetrator is Christian or Muslim. More than 8-in-10 (83 percent) Americans say that those who commit violence in the name of Christianity are not truly Christian. On the other hand, less than half (48 percent) of Americans extend this same principle to Muslims and say that those who commit violence in the name of Islam are not truly Muslim.

"If you followed media coverage of the horrible shooting in Sweden this summer…" Sorry, but there was no shooting in Sweden, it happened in neighboring country called Norway.

Herakles' contribution to space
Herakles (Safran) has built up its expertise over the last 40 years in the development and production of rocket engines, components and materials for the propulsion systems on the Ariane 5 and Vega launchers. Herakles also makes products for other launchers around the world, along with a large number of satellites.
Since the beginning of the European space program, Herakles has been involved in all versions of the Ariane launcher. In particular, through our subsidiary Europropulsion, we make the solid rocket motors (SRM) for the boosters on the heavy-lift Ariane 5 and the first stage (P80) of the Vega light launcher.
Herakles provides the following for these launchers:
- Nozzles for the Vega P80 motor and the MPS motor on Ariane 5.
- Part of the propellant grain for the solid rocket motors, via subsidiary Regulus.
- Raw materials used to make solid propellants, and high-performance elastomers for the thermal lining.
Herakles also makes the nozzle for Snecma's Vinci cryogenic engine, that will power the upper stage of the next-generation Ariane 6.
We also provide high-precision pressure transducers for all European launchers and, via our subsidiary Pyroalliance, pyrotechnic ignition, stage separation and range safety systems for the Brazilian VLS launcher.
Herakles makes a wide range of satellite equipment as well, including liquid propellants, pyromechanisms, sensors, dimensionally-stable composite structures, and thermal protection systems based on thermostructural composites.

A good body lotion is hard to find. Too oily, too sticky, too thick—the list goes on and on. Lucky for us, Caldrea has been perfecting its body care line for a decade (yes, a decade!). This nourishing body lotion comes in three signature scents: Aloe Water Apricot, a modern white musk with floral notes; Tea Olive Lime, a green citrus scent with vanilla and orchid; and Coconut Fig Leaf, which is fresh and exotic with top notes of white fig, plum, and coconut.
Received the apricot lotion as a sample and am head or heels for this product. This is the part I adore about getting items from Birchbox: that I can sample a product I've never heard of before and discover that it's a winner for me.
The texture is perfect, it glides on, soaks in, and isn't greasy. My scent felt hydrated and refreshed. Definitely going to get in the future from Birchbox.
i bought the coconut fig leaf after sampling and really liking it. let me tell you, i LOVE this lotion. if i could buy an endless supply all summer, i probably would. it is super light, absorbs quickly and doesn't leave any oily residue at all. the scent is so soft and perfect for summer. i only wish it would last a little longer sometimes. this is a fantastic body lotion!5

In 1979, the National Academy of Sciences was asked by the Director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy to prepare a report to assess the scientific basis for projection of possible future climate changes resulting from anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions. The Academy convened an ad hoc study group, headed by Jule Charney, to write the report. This report became influential for both policy makers and scientists, and is frequently cited as "the Charney report." It is especially useful as an outline of the state of climate models in the late 1970s, including some discussion of the largest unknowns in climate modeling.

Portland blazes past Thunder in 30-point rout
PORTLAND, Ore. — The comparisons to the Portland Trail Blazers remain a constant for the Thunder. But the Blazers used Monday's game at the Rose Garden to prove once again that Oklahoma City has a long way to go before coming anywhere close to resembling the talented young squad that resides in the Great Northwest. Portland led the Thunder by as many as 35 points, and the final horn in the 113-83 thrashing proved to be the only thing that could stop the Blazers. Portland shot 51.1 percent and had five players score in double digits, led by forward Travis Outlaw's game-high 21 points. Brandon Roy scored 20 points and Greg Oden scored 16 with nine rebounds in 20 minutes off the bench. "We're just not mature enough yet to beat a team like that at home," said Nick Collison, who returned from a two-game absence caused by a thigh injury. "They play like adults and we don't play like that sometimes. We don't share the ball and we try to force things. Defensively, we were bad too. "We have potential to be good. But there's a huge difference between having potential to be a playoff team and actually being a playoff team." The Blazers (53-28) recorded their second blowout victory in 11 days against the Thunder. Portland came into the Ford Center on April 3 and notched a 107-72 victory, holding OKC to a season-low in points. On Monday, the Blazers raced to a 14-point lead after the first quarter, a 31-point lead at the half and entered the fourth ahead 85-55. Portland's lead swelled to 98-63 with 6:22 remaining and 108-73 with 2:54 left to play. "They're playing with a purpose," said Earl Watson. "They're playing to try to get better seeding in the playoff race. It's so close in the West so they came out with a different mindset, a different intensity. We have to come out with a better focus, a better energy. It's the end of the season so it's more of a mental challenge." It's a challenge that the Thunder has failed miserably in the final month of this marathon season. Oklahoma City heads into Wednesday's season finale against the Los Angeles Clippers having lost six of seven games in April, falling by an average margin of 20 points. "It just shows we got a long way to go," Collison said. "It's who we are. We can't hide from it. It's on our resume so I don't think you can forget it. You can see that we're inconsistent. We're capable of playing well but we're also capable of playing pretty poorly." Watson scored a team-high 16 points with six rebounds and five assists off the bench for the Thunder. Russell Westbrook scored 15 with seven assists. The Thunder's leading scorers, Kevin Durant (10 points) and Jeff Green (11 points), combined to shoot just 8-for-22 from the field. The Thunder shot 40.2 percent (31.6 percent in the first half), was out-rebounded 54-36 and lost its last lead after a Steve Blake 18-footer tied the score at 2-2 with 10:53 remaining in the first quarter. "We gave it away," Brooks said. "We didn't battle. We didn't compete. We didn't play with any force. We didn't show any resolve at all and that's not good basketball. That's not what we've worked all year long to accomplish."

Would love suggest on how to wear this tan with blue windowpane wool/inen jacket. I always struggle with how to pair them even though I love the color and fabric. I feel like an improvement would have been a green tie or orange. Pants, I always assume light or mid grey or safe but I am open to other suggestions. Have a great day everyone!(Again apologies for angle, the camera is rather low and emphasizes the midsection in a fish eye sort of way).Details [[SPOILER]]

FAIRFAX COUNTY, Va. (WJLA) - Fairfax County Police are seeing an increase in the sex trafficking of young girls, and investigators say the Internet is helping criminals expand their business.
Fairfax County Police are a major part of the Human Trafficking Task Force in Northern Virginia, and they're taking an aggressive stance on the issue, closely following the methods of criminals to stop them before they find more victims. In the case of an Alexandria man who was arrested on federal charges on Monday, that's exactly what happened.
Tayron Weeks had been staying with his uncle on West Glebe Road in Alexandria, where neighbors thought they knew the 23-year-old.
"He's a good guy, as far as I know," one neighbor said.
Now that Weeks is facing charges of attempted sex trafficking of a 14-year-old child, another neighbor called him a "monster."
According to court documents, Weeks, who has a history of larceny, theft and assault, first approached the female victim at a bus stop at the Braddock Road Metro station. The two then had sex at Weeks' uncle's home.
Weeks later attempted to involve the girl in prostitution, saying she could earn $15,000 a night. He also told her she would be on heavy drugs, like cocaine, so she wouldn't feel any pain when having sex.
But instead of following Weeks, the young girl went to the authorities.
"She felt a civic responsibility to report to the police, to ensure other kids were not being affected by this individual," said FCPD Detective Bill Woolf.
Det. Woolf says authorities are seeing an increase in online recruitment for sex trafficking, and with younger victims.
"We're attacking and addressing the issue with zero tolerance, and really focusing on what the methods are for these traffickers, specifically online, like Facebook," Det. Woolf said.
While recruiting another potential victim on Facebook, under his page name, "Made Man," Weeks seemed to know he was in dangerous territory. He wrote, "After you read this delete these messages." After the potential victim wrote she was just 14 years old, Weeks responded, "Okay, so listen. You're not 14, you're 18!
Weeks was planning to operate out of the Days Inn near Landmark Mall in Alexandria, but instead was arrested last month at the McDonald's on West Glebe Road, where he was scheduled to meet the potential victim.
Though Weeks was arrested last month and bonded out of jail, he is once again in jail after being re-arrested Monday on federal charges, including attempted sex trafficking of a child, sexual exploitation of a child, and attempted coercion and enticement.

|Patent application number
|PILLOW HAVING APPARATUS FOR DETERMINING SLEEPING STATE UNDER UNRESTRICTED NON-SELF-AWARENESS CONDITION - Provided is a pillow having an apparatus for determining a sleeping state under an unrestricted non-self-awareness condition. The apparatus includes a sensor for detecting analog bio-information on a pulse, breathing, body movement, snore. bruxism for a user putting his/her head on the pillow, a signal processing unit for filtering off and amplifying the analog bio-information detected by the sensor, and a control unit for converting the analog bio-information output from the signal processing unit into a digital signal, storing the digital signal therein, extracting parameters from the detected bio-information to provide a sleeping status as a quantitative indicator. The sensor is installed in the pillow. The sensor is inserted into a pad type housing so that the sensor does not directly contact an interior material of the pillow. The housing is provided on an upper portion of the pillow so that minute vibration and movement of the user's head, which are incurred by the user's breathing, pulse, body movement, and snore, is effectively transferred to the sensor.

When life is stressful sometimes we can take refuge in a good, honest bit of hard work.
Refuge in Work
Home is inside your heart
A half-hour window of time presented itself to me, so I began some calligraphy practice, which evolved into free writing. From this play with letters and words, a phrase evolved. It represents that our balance and security needs to come from within, and that once we have found this, we become immeasurably stronger in the face of the whirlwind of things that life lays before us, or throws at us.
Songkran in Cha-am, Thailand
Songkran is one of the three occasions that Thailand celebrates as New Year. And I had a plan. It was to be a legendary road trip. I had gotten a hammock with mosquito net and fly sheet, so that I could sleep anywhere where there are trees trees—which is everywhere in Thailand. I had my motorbike loaded up. I had weeks off work. The vision was big: ride as far south as I could, perhaps spending half of each day on the bike, and maybe even get as far as Malaysia.
Except it didn't go according to plan. It was April, which is the hottest time of year here. It's exhausting to spend even half a day on a motorbike, in the blazing sun, blasting down the roads which only get hotter as you move further south. So instead of finding some pristine spot of nature to pitch my hammock camp, I went looking for a cheap guesthouse. A cold water shower can sometimes feel like all the luxury you would ever need. After reading a novel on my Kindle, getting a good night's sleep, and then breakfast, I got back on the road, and wondered where I would be sleeping the next night.
When I got near Cha-am, which is under 200 km from Bangkok, I headed for a small national park that I had already researched and marked on my GPS. It was almost deserted, but the few staff left said it was fine for me to stay there in my hammock. I dumped my stuff and went for a walk around this small park.
And that was it. No more! Sometimes we've got to toughen-up and be strong, but sometimes we have to go with the flow, which is always towards the sea, and find somewhere comfortable to lay low. I found another guesthouse, parked my bike inside and decided to stop trying to be a hardened woodsman and start enjoying things the Thai way.
the value of not owning music
When I first met the Quakers in 2006, one of the things I was drawn to was their value of simplicity. I guess this is because my life had got so full of stuff. Mental stuff, emotional stuff, and physical stuff. The value of simplicity seeks to strip away the non-essential to create space inside our hearts and houses, and this space brings clarity.
Spending a year as a backpacker, where all the things I needed were in my backpack, taught me that you really don't need a lot of physical objects in order to be happy. But back in England there were draws, boxes and cupboards full of things, all waiting for my return.
I got rid of a lot. In the UK there are loads of charity shops where you can dump your stuff. It makes getting rid of things much easier when you know they're going to be useful to someone else. In Thailand there is a similar service, but you just leave your stuff on the street outside your house. People drive around on improvised motorbike-sidecar-trailers at dawn and pick it up. They sort through it and then sell it on.
Sometimes it hurts. Getting rid of my guitar, which I had owned for many years and which held a lot of fond memories for me, was difficult. But I didn't play it any more, and I had no plans to start again. So it's gone.
And with each thing that's gone, there's a bit more space.
In a post last year I wrote about why I wasn't going to pay for a streaming music subscription like Spotify. I made a list of reasons, which are still valid, but a lot of it hung on the fact that I wanted to own my music. I wanted to hold onto it for my whole life. And I didn't want to pay money for this music if I couldn't archive it on my computer and feel like it was truly mine. When you cancel a Spotify subscription you lose the music, and I didn't like the thought of that.
Which is a bit funny really. I pay for mechanics to service my motorbike. I don't own their service; I need to go back again in the future to keep it running nicely. I don't own a haircut, but I'm happy to pay. So getting into streaming music required me to change my mindset.
Enter the 30-day free subscription, and it's all been changed for me.
I love streaming music1. The reason I love it is because I can explore freely in a sea of music, experimenting, trying out a lot of new artists, and be free of the burden of having to download music, add it to my library, and then make a decision of whether I like it enough to buy. I can just enjoy it. And here's the thing: I am enjoying music more now than ever before in my life.
So it's a 180° turn for me. Subscription music is great. And it's taken away another burden, the burden to download or buy a music collection, and to keep that collection organised. More space. More life.
- I don't use Spotify, because they don't offer the service in Thailand, but there's something similar, Rdio, which does. ↩
The Peace Inside
The peace is always there—around you, inside you—the question is whether you connect to it.
yoga nidra
goodbye drugs, hello clarity
It's easy for someone who blogs about wellbeing (especially one who's also a Reiki teacher) to fall into a trap. It's the trap that says I've made it—I've found inner peace, health, and everything in my life has fallen into place. But inauthenticity is like a siren: a sign that something's wrong, and a bloody obvious sign at that. So here's my confession.
Since I became an adult, able to choose what I do and when I do it, I've had an unhealthy relationship with what I put into my body. I've used substances as an escape, a way to hide from myself.
The most obvious thing I put into my body that has caused me trouble is alcohol. I tell myself that I need to relax, that I work myself too hard anyway, and that having a drink will help. While there is some truth to this, I've got a weakness, which I think runs in my family, that means I quickly get dependent on alcohol. It's not that I binge drink, just that I find myself wanting a drink (or two, or three) every day. This isn't necessarily a problem, except for the fact that a feeling builds up in my body—the feeling that things aren't really well for me. When I take a break from drinking, that feeling goes away.
Since I became a non-drinker on 20th July this year, I've felt clearer, healthier, and that I have more energy. The only times I've wanted a drink since then has been with friends who are drinking, but the desire quickly passes.
But I've been a bit like the monk who, following the Buddhist monastic rule of no food after mid-day, decides to take up soft drinks and cigarettes, which he enjoys each afternoon. (Yes, I really met a monk that did that. He lives in Koh Chang.) He hasn't broken any formal rule, but he has missed the spirit of the rule: refraining from ingesting certain things in order to focus on the interior life.
And what did I do to replace the alcohol? Just like him, cigarettes!
This gave me another escape. Tobacco isn't nearly as fun as alcohol, but it still changes your state of mind, so when you don't want to face how you truly feel, it's a quick and easy escape. On a par with alcohol, at least for me, is its negative health effects. The hot smoke would irritate my throat, and just one cigarette would make me feel different all day, a kind of messiness in my chest. It was also psychological: feeling that I had done one damaging thing to my body in the morning would make me feel less positive throughout the day; there would be a lingering negative feeling that accompanied the lingering physical effects.
I thought I'd just have the one pouch of tobacco and then stop, but I didn't even last that long. The rewards of smoking were just so small compared to the negative effects. And after smoking for a few weeks it became clear what I really wanted: the ability to live my life, to face my real emotions, without relying on drugs.
I smoked my last cigarette on 21st October. The next day I took a bus to the seaside, and then a ferry boat to the beautiful island of Koh Samet, where I am now. I've been staying on a secluded little beach with just a few other guests. Most of them (it's surprising how many) are drinking, or smoking, or both. The beach is about relaxing, right? So alcohol and tobacco should really help. That's the logic I always took with me on previous beach holidays, anyway. But this time, without either of those crutches, I've had to appreciate what's really going on. It's a different attitude, where I can no-longer hide away from how I really feel, because I don't have either of those buttons to press that can make me feel different.
The fact is, I've been feeling quite good (except this annoying cold I came down with yesterday). Seeing the other guests smoking and drinking has made me miss both a little, but really not much at all.
On previous beach holidays I always had the option to smoke or drink, if I felt like I wanted to change my state of mind. It was like a safety net: if I'm not enjoying myself enough, or I don't feel relaxed enough, I have an option. And being without that option means I have to experience things with more courage, because I know that even if I don't feel the way I want to, I'm going to stay with it.
This has transformed my experience. I've had clarity and mindfulness in a way I've not had in a really long time. And I've felt more centred in myself, and comfortable with who I am. In some ways it's been tough, but in the opposite way to cigarettes: cigarettes are easy, provide a pathetically small boost, and have lasting negative effects. Being free from these substances has required strength, and has provided significant improvement in my wellbeing, without any negative effects.
I used these drugs in the past because I didn't want to be the uber-disciplined, holier-than-thou guy who didn't know how to have fun. I wanted to be relaxed and free. Getting really drunk certainly makes you relaxed and free, but the cost for me was just too high. So now that I step out in life (back to work tomorrow!) without these crutches, please wish me well.
Why I'm not using Spotify
I know a few people who are completely sold on streaming music services like Spotify. I tried Spotify, and enjoyed it, and would love to jump on board. I don't have a big music collection, and the appeal of being able to listen to anything I want, legally, for a fee of just £10 a month is tempting. I almost signed-up, until I realised that I will be paying just £10 a month for the rest of my life.
I hope to live a healthy and strong life, which for me includes enjoying music, at least to the age of 80. I'm 30 now. At just £120 a year, that's a total of just £6000.
And if during the next 50 years I decide to stop paying just £10 a month, all of that music is gone.
That's as negative as I will get about streaming, because I can see how it's a powerful service. If I was really into new music, it would be the right choice for me. It's great how many record companies have got on board, and how easy it is to use. I could well be the future of the music industry, and in a couple of decades it might be what everyone is be doing.
But I've gone for a different approach. I've made a little spreadsheet which earmarks just £10 a month for what I've called my 'music fund'. As you can see, I've been busy the last few months and haven't had time to do my intial goal of buying one lossless1 album per month:
If I do this for 50 years, I'll have 600 albums. I probably won't, and that's where we hit the crux of the matter: I can stop paying into my music fund at any time but still get to keep what I've already invested.
This system is simple, slow, and I don't get instant access to everything I would like. It takes me time to track down a lossless format, and some record labels aren't even selling them.2 But something about this feels more solid, and I'm taking pleasure tracking down these files, and supporting the label directly.
September's purchase:
- I've commited to buying only lossless audio, which future-proofs my collection. For more on lossless and why it will supercede mp3, check out this podcast. ↩
- I'm looking forward to the time that the iTunes store starts offering lossless audio, to fill-in these gaps. ↩
three technologies that have made me healthier
This post does not contain any affiliate links. I'm sharing these things because they've made a difference to my life, and they might help you too.
People complain that technology adds stress to their lives. This is true, but it's not the whole of the story. In this post I'm going to describe three changes I've made to my life, with the help of technology, which mean that I'm feeling healthier today than ever before.
Andrew Johnson is a clinical psychologist and hypnotherapist who has produced some great apps and mp3s. I've been a fan ever since I tried Relax Plus, and found myself in a deeply relaxed state after just a few minutes. The app I use most regularly, especially to turn my brain off before sleep, is Infinite Relaxation, but Andrew also offers a wide range of therapy topics. I tried one of these recently that has made a very big difference in my life.
I've often felt that I drink more alcohol than I would like, and so I decided to try the stop drinking mp3, which the description says will help you "stop drinking altogether or cut down and regain control". I was hoping for the cut down option, but I got more than I bargained for.
I fell asleep as I was listening to the recording, but woke up towards the end. As I regained consciousness, I inexplicably felt that something powerful was taking place. I didn't know exactly what, but it soon became clear: I was becoming a non-drinker. Andrew Johnson was planting the seed, which I accepted, first unconsciously and, later, consciously. Alcohol had been causing me needless stress, expense, and negative physical effects, and my whole being realised that enough is enough. No more alcohol.
My positive habit tracker, lift.do, tells me that I have been alcohol free for 34 days. I've never felt better, and thanks to the power of Andrew Johnson's hypnotic suggestion, letting alcohol go from my life has actually been easy. It's like a weight has been lifted from my mind and body, and I'm free to spend my evenings in more healthy ways.
The second change I've made to my life, which I started in June this year, is doing regular physical exercise. I always knew that physical exercise would help me feel better, but I also always found an excuse not to do it. What has made all the difference has been setting small, achievable goals: one seven minute workout, at least five times a week. Seven minutes is such a short amount of time that even if you're feeling lazy, you can still do it. Go on, just seven minutes! And there are many high-quality, free apps if you search for 'seven minute workout'1. I've been mixing that with bite-sized yoga sessions, 15 minutes long, with the beautiful Yoga Studio app.
Lift.do tells me that since I started in early June, I've done checked in to the physical exercise habit 70 times. That's almost every day. And it's not because I'm super-motivated, it's because I'm using the right tools and have achievable goals.
The third change is unloading stuff from my mind. I posted before about how being more productive has given me more inner calm. The key has been making sure every job, no matter how small (remember to polish my shoes) or big (pass driving test), goes onto a list. The app I use to track my lists is great and it's called Things2. When it's out of my mind and onto a list, as long as I have a good system of checking the lists, my mind can let go of the tasks. So it's emptier and freer to think about other things, or just to relax.
A few people have asked me how life has been different since leaving Facebook. Undoubtedly, when I closed my personal account, a huge amount of stuff—some good, some bad—was unloaded from my mind. And I haven't regretted that for even one second.
Thank you to all the people who have devoted themselves to creating these amazing systems and apps. (I'm not talking about Mark Zuckerberg here, rather, Andrew Johnson, the team behind Lift.do and Yoga Studio, that really cool fitness trainer in my seven minute workout app and the developers that made it a reality, Cultured Code, and David Allen for Getting Things Done.). And thank you to the core of potential and strength within me—and you—that has taken hold of these tools and made my vision of health into a reality.
And now it's your turn. How has technology helped you live a healthier life?
P.S. If you use the lift.do app, please follow me—accountability encourages successful habit forming. Just search for oldmankit within the app.

Daniel Kvarn
Even since I met Glen Allison in Laos, I've been developing my skills as a portrait photographer. It's harder than you would think. Really. Lighting is a technical subject. I love to read everything I can about a technical subject, understand it thoroughly, and then execute it perfectly. But getting beautiful lighting has been much harder than I would have predicted, and I've failed more times than I've succeeded. This is because, as I've come to realise, lighting is not just technical, it's an art.
When Daniel came round, I had already got my studio set-up, loosened-up with a couple of whisky and sodas, and was ready to try once again. But as I fired some test shots, I stared in disbelief. I'm turning this up, which means the exposure should be going up, but actually it's going down. Yet again, frustrated. Is even the technical side is beyond me?
Doing what anyone who understands technology does, I restarted my camera, my radios, my flashes. Ahh, that's better.
