Like a photograph of the old days, Beypazarı, nestled in a steep valley not far from Ankara, harbors vestiges of Ottoman times in its historic hans, baths and mansions and its market that keeps the ancient handicrafts alive.
Spread over undulating hills overlooking a valley, Beypazarı lies at the edge of a deep lake basin 98 kilometers northwest of Ankara. An ordinary Anatolian town at first glance, the township begins to reveal its beauties as you get closer. The Ottoman mansions for which this township, situated at the bottom and on the two slopes of a valley, is famous are scattered mainly along the streets with a valley view. Abandoned to their fate for many years out of neglect, all of them are under protection today. Imparting life to the hills, the houses stand like so many film sets waiting to be dismantled followed the shoot. Shy rosy-cheeked glances from between the curtains however offer sufficient proof that the Beypazarı Houses, far from being soulless touristic mockups, are living, breathing residences.
Streets full of surprises...
Usually three stories high, Beypazarı Houses are built of stone on their lower stories while the upper ones consist of a wood frame filled in with mud adobe.
Beypazarı, which was destroyed a number of times by fire throughout its history, suffered its biggest conflagration in 1884. Even the newest of the historic houses in this town that managed to rise from its own ashes every time is a hundred years old. Judging by the brochures advertising the mansions recently converted into popular hotels, there are even some three-hundred-year-old houses in the area. The cantilevered balconies and wooden window grilles, the cornices under the eaves and over the doors, and the creative wooden door knockers of these houses set in gardens exemplify the elegance of the local architecture.
A town that has reinvented itself
Dozens of Beypazarı houses have been gained for tourism in the recent restoration boom that has swept the town. One of them, Hakim Evi or the Judge's House, an example of the township's 19th century architecture, is used for tourism today. Artifacts from the township's history are displayed in the Beypazarı Museum, which is housed in an historic old wood frame mansion. You can get a bird's-eye view of the area's oldest settlements - the districts of Cumhuriyet, İstiklal, Zafer and Beytepe - as well as the historic market from the hill known as Karcıkaya, where children also hold kite-flying contests. The Sultan Alaaddin Mosque, one of area's oldest structures, was built in 1225 by the Seljuk Sultan Aladdin Keykubad. This single-minaret mosque whose walls are made of brick rises in the district called Paşa. Every stranger is greeted with a warm welcome in Beypazarı, where time moves slowly, and while this may strike a modern urban person as strange, here it is completely ordinary.
Beypazar, the bazaar
Beypazarı's history goes back to the earliest times. A place of settlement to several civilizations since the Hittites, the area in its time came under Phrygian, Galatian, Byzantine, Seljuk and Ottoman rule. Known to the Romans as Lagania, it was Anastasiopolis to the Byzantines. A major stop on the road from Baghdad to Istanbul in the Seljuk period, the town was conquered by the Germiyanoglu Principality. In the same period it acquired the name Beypazarı owing to the large market (pazar) that began to go up in the district which bears that name today. Perhaps Central and Western Anatolia's most colorful bazaar, Beypazarı has been in existence since Ottoman times. Reduced to ashes in the great fire of 1884, it was rebuilt entirely in stone.
BeypazarI 'dry bread' and filigree
A kind of bread known as 'kuru' (dry) and resembling a small, crisp 'simit' is peculiar to the region and a popular snack with tourists. You will find it frequently in bakeries and pastry shops. 'Kuru', which stays fresh for a whole year, used to be made in every household in Beypazarı and was traditionally offered to foreign visitors.
A handicraft unique to this locale is 'telkâri' or filigree, which has survived from the Ottoman period thanks to the traditional master-apprentice relationship which still thrives today. Filigree, which is of Middle Eastern origin and whose name is synonymous with cities such as Mardin and Diyarbakır, has also been produced in Beypazarı for centuries. This art, which is made by producing fine gold and silver wire and then bending it into aesthetically pleasing shapes, came to the area approximately three centuries ago through the 'Akhi' brotherhood, a professional organization based on principles of equality and tolerance, and acquired a new form in the hands of the local masters.
A miniature Cappadocia
Suluhan should definitely be your next stop after the historic Beypazarı market! Built in the Ottoman architectural style, this building in the town center was used for years as a caravanserai. Other structures dating back to Ottoman times include the area's many 'türbe's or tombs.. The Gazi Gündünalp Türbe at the village of Hırkatepe and the Yediler Türbe or Tomb of the Twelve along the road known as the Bağ Yolu (Vineyard Way) are said to be places of burial for Ottoman soldiers and religious scholars. The Boğazkesen Kumbet, situated on a rise at the intersection of Acıbağlar and the village of Derbentçik in the north of the township, is a domed structure of one room said to date back to Seljuk times. Adaören Castle, located in the upper part of an old mine near the village of Adaören and left from the Roman period, shares its isolation only with the valley of the Kirmir River. This time we to go see the area's natural wonder, the İnözü Valley, accompanied along the way by the ubiquitous chicken farms that have sprung up in recent years. The small İnözü River, which arises in the foothills of the village of Uşakgöl, is joined by several other small streams before it flows through İnözü Valley and Beypazarı to its confluence with the Kirmir. The caves that dot the steep slopes on either side of this valley seem to keep a watchful eye over the town at all times. Difficult of access on the rocky slopes, these caves were used as churches and rock tombs in the Early Byzantine Period. Around the village of Dereli, earth formations resembling 'Fairy Chimneys' have been produced as a result of natural erosion of the local volcanic rock, turning the area into a virtual miniature Cappadocia.
Carrot delight
A source of natural spring water in the area known as Karakoca is just one of the many therapeutic underground springs in the region. Another of the many riches of this township, which serves health tourism with its Dutlu-Tahtalı Thermal Facilities and Ayaş Spa, is the carrot. Carrot ice cream, carrot juice, carrot soap, carrot pudding and even carrot sausage, are produced here. Not to mention carrot-flavored Turkish Delight, Beypazarı is a place that has succeeded in preserving its identity and its soul despite the rapid development of tourism. To discover lasting traces of everyday life in the Ottoman period, go one day to Beypazarı as if you were visiting your Grandma, and listen to the stories told by the historic mansions that line its stone-paved streets. They have a lot to tell you.

Going with the Flow
Thursday, May 23, 2013
I was in a really good stretch of routine when LIFE HAPPENED!
First the camping trip, then meetings and funerals and rearranged schedules! Well I decided that firstly I was getting bored with the same food all the time and secondly I was stressing too much about eating the exact thing on the menu for the day. I also found amazingly enough that I would be hungry and that means that I was either not eating enough, or not putting on enough EVO ( extra Virgin Olive Oil) or something was up!
So Tuesday I ate according to plan, no change in weight! But I did not lose heart, Wednesday was supposed to be a straight forward day...and then life happened! Turned out I had to take DH to work and then take DS to visit his new school and I ended up leaving the house without breakfast! ( this is because I thought the meeting started at 9:30 am but it actually started at 9 am so I had to rush! no time for breakfast)
We got there and they served muffins, loaves, cookies and coffee. So I had my one cup of coffee with creamer and two home made cookies! I know they were home made because they had those marks that are left when you flatten cookies with a fork. So that ended up being my breakfast! So the day progressed, more running around, grocery shopping, cleaning and so on...more driving and I bought a salad from the store...it was that or nothing...then for dinner was steak, salad and mushrooms. I had my 1 oz of chocolate after dinner too!
Well I was down half a pound this morning! I hoped that today would be more structured, but no such luck! First had to go clean for an hour, ( took my breakfast WITH me this time! ) and then got picked up to go to my monthly writers' group. Then my co-author and I went for lunch! We needed to talk about some things re: manuscript! This is what I had for lunch:
Stuffed chicken with veggies!
I brought some of it home, it was too much!
Then for dinner I am having chicken and salad!
Oh and at the writer's meeting I had a tiny scone with some butter and jam ( my snack for the day) ...I was hungry by then!
So I don't know what the scale will do, but all I know is that I am not hungry between meals and I am eating my protein and veg. Since there is a little more variety I am enjoying the meals so much more!
I am trying to stick to foods I know work for me but when life happens I refuse to get all stressed about it! I also do not just eat what I want ...at the place where we had lunch they had muffins and cheesecake from the famous CHEESECAKE FACTORY and I did not even go there! Did not look, stayed away and ate my yummy veggies!
I hope that I am learning more how to make good choices without being obsessed. I hope that I am learning to put food lower down on my list of priorities! I hope I am learning to enjoy food more and not over-think every calorie! I am also learning to take the foods I know are friendly for my body and make them my own, add spices and make them interesting!
My goal is to be under 150 by my next birthday! If I stick to The Plan it can happen!
I know I no longer eat carbs with animal protein, I now combine rice with vegetables ONLY! ( no meat)
I now combine some cooked veg with some raw to aid in digestion.
AND WHEN I EAT properly like this I don't think about food between meals!
I really want this trend to continue, to have a healthier relationship to food! IT CANNOT be my focus, I have a life to live!
How about you?

I think this is one of my fav blogs of yours. I love how you are navigating life and food - and it is a challenge! I'm trying to look at it that life isn't getting in the way, but that life is a road and I have to navigate the speed bumps, pot holes and blind curves. Sometimes looking at the road map (organizing/planning) helps me be prepared, but along the way there will be unexpected detours too. They can be frustrating, but taken in stride they can be interesting as well - even if it doesn't allow me the direct and fastest route to your destination. But so easy to say.... so challenging to do all the time.
The stuffed chicken and veggies has my mouth watering. Lately I've been finding I've not been drawn to eating carbs with my meat either.... but for me it's just been a taste preference.... what is the reason you don't eat animal protein with carbs? I know.... I should probably add The Plan to my reading list but my list is so long right now! Any other combinations you're watching out for?
Keep up the great work Mel. Looking forward to more good stuff. CJ

I think when Im down to a healthier weight I wont have food be my focus either. But for me, here and now, I have to be super conscientious till I have lost more weight. Mind you, Im not really obsessed either, I just plan well and stick to the plan diligently for maximum effect. I look forward to the day when I can just eat 3 simple meals a day with mindful eating.

You are making good choices - life happens and sometimes the plan doesn't fit. Eating different things may shake things up for the better. Look at the overall journey - where you started, where you are now and where you eventually want to be. Stop and smell the roses on the way :)) It's not a race!

Yes, that's why I never go on "plans," I just feel like I don't have time to obsess about eating certain things. Then again, I'm not losing any weight eating off plan either... ;-)

Hey guys!!
This past Saturday I competed again for the first time since my disappointing experience at the Mundial and I ended up taking gold after a tough fight with a really tough opponent from Ribeiro Jiu-Jitsu.
Tue, 2012-06-19 18:06 — Nathan Mendelsohn
Hey guys
The Mundial this year for me was an extremely disappointing experience. I have never sacrificed so much for a single event in my life, nor have I ever felt so prepared. I truly dedicated myself to my diet and for the first time in my life I felt like I dropped weight the right way and was really lean and strong for my weight class.

Yesterday I got the chance to get a tune up before this weekend's tournament with multiple time black belt world champion Caio Terra. Also in attendance were tough black belts and good friends Augusto Queixinho, Samir Chantre, and Flavio Meier. The training session was killer and I've already felt my game get tighter from training with these high level athletes.

Things are not looking for good for Tamra Barney right now. On Wednesday, Radar Online shared the news that she has now deleted her Facebook and it looks like she might not be back on "The Real Housewives of Orange County" next season either. She is making a lot of enemies right now.
News came out earlier today that she was being fired from the show. After that happened, she actually deleted her Facebook page and reports are out she even left the country. Tamra is getting away from it all. She is actually in Mexico but she is just on vacation not really skipping the country. You can't get to her Facebook at all like it is gone, but her Twitter page is still up.
Yesterday she tweeted, "One more day till paradise. I'm so over the stress of the show and what it's doing to my spirit." It looks like she just needs to get away from it all. Tamra is upset that Bravo is editing her to make her look bad. She missed an event for Lizzie, but didn't tell her about it until after it was over. It made her look bad, but she said that Bravo knew she wasn't coming and had Lizzie call her instead of giving her the chance to let her knew she wasn't coming first.
The Stir reported earlier this week that Tamra and Eddie might even be heading for divorce. This report says that he is tired of all of her drama and can't put up with it anymore. Tamra and drama do go together that is for sure. Eddie refused to go the reunion show, but Tamra spoke out saying he never goes and doesn't want to be part of all of that drama.
If Tamra Barney really does get fired from "RHOC," she better hope her marriage doesn't fall apart too. All of the drama with the show could be hard on their marriage though so getting out of that situation might be the best thing for Eddie and Tamra. Only time will tell what happens for sure.

text: Dec 7, 2012 12:24 Advocate story Comments The International Landslide Centre reports the dominant global trigger for landslides is monsoon rain. Weatherwise magazine noted tropical cyclones generate extreme rainfall that activates landslides in Asia and hurricanes have the same effect on sections of the Caribbean and Central America. Landslides kill 10 times more people around the world than previously believed. The center recently developed a data base that provides the first detailed analysis of worldwide landslide fatalities. Fatalities are concentrated in China, Central and South America. Deforestation, the melting of permafrost in mountainous areas and population densities are additional factors in the cause, extent and effects of the landslides. This research will assist governments to initiate steps to minimize loss and implement life-saving measures. Fastcast: Showers. Get The Advocate in your inbox Subscribe

Since a few weeks the United States (and a large part of the rest of the world) are under the spell of Obama and Hillary. The real elections are still about nine months away, but the Democratic Primaries are a thriller. You would almost forget that there is still another president at te wheel. And every day there are more Americans who have a lot of problems with this president. Americans like Eric Tischler from The Jet Age.
After The Jet Age's debut album "Breathless" from 2006 this singer/guitarist from Silver Springs, Maryland started working on the next record. A soundtrack to an imaginary musical that asks what is our responsibility, as citizens, when our government is out of control. With this issue as a subject and the riff to the song "If I Had You Then, I'd Still Want You Now" as the starting point Eric started working on the songs for the political concept album "What Did You Do During the War, Daddy?" from The Jet Age.
The story is about a family man who gets in trouble with his own passivity, while his government is dumbing down the population. At the end he comes to the tragic conclusion that a suicide bomb attack is the only solution. Together with bassist Greg Bennett and drummer Pete Nuwayser Eric has completed the songs with splendid heavy music. Music which, according to Eric is influenced by bands like The Who, Swervedriver and My Bloody Valentine (although I can't hear this last band in this music). The CD was released by Sonic Boomerang Records.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — After an 0-4 start to the regular season, the Air Force Falcons look as if they have gotten back on track. With a 4-1-1 (4-5-1 overall) record in their last six games, all in conference play, Air Force finds itself sitting alone on top of the Atlantic Hockey Association, one point ahead of RIT .
Behind an outstanding effort on special teams and a great performance in the net by Andrew Volkening, playing in his 100th collegiate game, the Air Force flew to a victory Saturday night.
"I thought the game had somewhat of a playoff feel," said Air Force coach Frank Serratore. "They kept numbers back and they didn't want to get into a track meet with us, so there wasn't a lot of flow in the game. They wanted to win ugly and score off of transition offense and the power play."
Air Force used special teams to get on the board first, as they put a power-play goal on the board 9:46 into the first period. In a goal reminiscent of the night before, Jacques Lamoureux found a gift goal as a shot by Kyle De Laurell glanced off the far post and went straight onto Lamoureux's stick. A quick shot and the Cadets were on the board 1-0.
The second period saw a lot of chippy play. The teams combined for a total of six penalties, but once again it was only Air Force that could capitalize on the man advantage. Despite being on the penalty kill for the first four minutes of the period, the Cadets were able to turn their superb penalty kill into momentum that propelled them to their second power-play goal of the game.
"Today, special teams was the difference in the game," remarked Bentley coach Ryan Soderquist. "They had two on the power play and we didn't have any, and going 0-7 is the difference in the game; our power play has to step up to the plate and get it done."
Less than a minute after Bentley's Ryan Kayfes had taken a holding penalty, Air Force's Derrick Burnett found the back of the net. Despite a nice effort by Bentley goalie Kyle Rank (26 saves), where he was able to get a leg on the puck, it squirted by to give Air Force a 2-0 lead with 12:42 left in the second.
It was tough going for Bentley (2-2-1 in Atlantic Hockey, 2-4-1 overall) offensively for nearly a whole period, as they totaled only a single shot halfway though the second period until almost half the third period was over.
"There was a lack of offense because Air Force stepped back and trapped us and we had trouble breaking the trap in the neutral zone," Soderquist said.
Following the second goal, Air Force turned to the skill of their senior goaltender, as their strategy went from being offensive to a more defensive style; luckily for Air Force, Volkening was up to the challenge.
After being shut down for most of the game, Bentley went on the attack almost midway through the third period. Volkening made a sliding save to keep the puck out of the net on more than one occasion and repeatedly turned back Bentley shots that were coming at point-blank range.
In an effort to cut Air Force's lead, Bentley pulled their goalie with just over two minutes remaining in the third period, but it was all for naught as Air Force sealed the game with an empty-net goal.
Serratore was much happier with his team's overall performance Saturday night.
"We didn't give them any outnumbered situations, we didn't give them any easy ones, but neither did they, so the game comes down to special teams and goaltending. We scored three special-teams goals if you count the six-on-five empty-netter, and our penalty killers were the stars of the game by forcing them to go 0-7 on the power play."
Air Force hits the road next week for a weekend series at Holy Cross while Bentley is at home against Sacred Heart.

Long Island first choice for reliable and professional House Painters
Turner's Painting Huntington, NY 11743ph: 516 850 8369fax: 631 470 email@example.com
Maybe you've created your own custom color from paints lying around the basement, only to find that you can't figure out how to replicate it. Or perhaps you moved into a house with a paint color scheme that you love, but it needs some touching up.
You head over to your local paint store and come home armed with a pocketful of paint chips, thinking surely one of the colors will match, but no luck. Who knew there were so many different shades of green?
As we learned from our big box of Crayolas, purple isn't just purple and red isn't just red. You can choose from cornflower blue, midnight blue, blue-gray, blue-green and the list goes on. Colors are actually waves of light, and each wavelength has a value that makes it different from the rest. A color can be described by how pure or desaturated it is, as well as its value or lightness.
So describing something as green or even blue-green isn't going to be specific enough if you're trying to find the exact color.

The Arizona State men and women will look to keep their winning streaks against their in-state rivals alive this weekend.
Coach Dumble's Full Bio (pdf) | Follow Coach Dumble on Facebook
Some of the best collegiate throwers in NCAA history have come through Tempe and excelled under the guidance of David Dumble, who is entering his 12th season as the throws coach for the men and women of Arizona State University. A five-time USTFCCCA National Assistant Coach of the Year, Dumble has worked with individuals that have captured 21 NCAA titles, including Jordan Clarke, who has won three consecutive NCAA shot put titles.
In 2012, the ASU men's program continued its dominance of the shot put event as Clarke swept the indoor and outdoor shot put titles to give him three NCAA championships in the event in his career.Clarke won his third consecutive NCAA Shot Put title and defended his 2011 outdoor crown with a new personal best throw of 20.40m (66-11.25). The mark gave Arizona State its fourth consecutive NCAA shot put title (Ryan Whiting won in 2009 and 2010) and between Whiting and Clarke, the program has now won eight of the last 10 NCAA shot put competition between the indoor and outdoor campaigns. Clarke swpt the Pac-12 and MPSF shot put titles and also posted a second-place finish the hammer throw and a third-place finish in the discus at the Pac-12 Championship to be named the competition's Men's Athlete of the Meet.
In addition, Anna Jelmini earned All-American honors in the indoor shot put before earning her second consecutive runner-up finish at the outdoor championships in the discus. Jelmini also swept the Pac-12 Championships in both the shot put and discus events.
In 2011, Dumble worked with several individuals that had great success. During the season, Clarke was a two-time All-American as he was ninth indoors in the shot put before claiming his crown outdoors. Anna Jelmini, one of the top prep throwers in the nation in 2009, came off her redshirt year and finished fifth in the indoor shot put before holding the NCAA lead in the discus (60.44m) and finishing as the national runner-up at the 2011 NCAA outdoor meet. Following the season, Dumble worked once again with Sarah Stevens-Walker and helped make Team USA for the IAAF World Championships in Daegu in the shot put after taking third at the USATF Championships.
Dumble's group once again put Arizona State in the thick of the hunt for national titles in 2010 as Whiting won the indoor and outdoor shot put crowns while adding the discus title before being named Track & Field News Athlete of the Year. Whiting was joined by Jason Lewis and Clarke, both of which had strong years, including a 1-2-3 sweep of the shot put at the Pac-10 Championships at the end of the outdoor season. At the same meet, Cj Navarro won the discus for the women, giving ASU that event title for the fourth year in a row (three different athletes).
Whiting (three), Lewis (five) and Clarke (one) combined to collect nine All-America honors in 2010 as all three finished in the Top 8 nationally at the NCAA Championships in the shot put, the same event Whiting won with a toss of 21.97m, just 3cm shy of the collegiate record.
But academic achievement was not the only thing reached in 2010. Whiting was named the USTFCCCA Scholar-Athlete of the Year while also being named the Pac-10 Scholar of the Year. Whiting and Lewis also were selected for NCAA Post Graduate Scholarships based upon their academic and athletic achievements after being selected Academic All-America First Team honorees.
In 2009, Whiting and Lewis collected three national titles while his entire group earned 13 All-America honors. Indoors, Whiting and Lewis swept the throws by taking gold in the shot put and weight throw, respectively, while Lewis also was fourth in the shot put to give ASU 25 points and a fifth-place finish. Sarah Stevens was the national runner-up in the shot put and fourth in the weight to help the women to another Top 10 finish.
Outdoors, Whiting won his first shot put crown and nearly took home the discus as well while Lewis earned All-America honors in the discus and hammer. The women were once again led by Stevens, an All-American in the shot put, discus and hammer, and Cj Navarro, a freshman who took eighth in the discus. Under Dumble's direction, Stevens closed out her career in Tempe with 15 All-America honors, the most by any Sun Devil track & field athlete (male and female) ever.
The 2008 season, like the seasons before, was a banner year for Dumble's throwers. Indoors, Whiting set the collegiate record while winning the shot put with a toss of 21.73m (71-03.50) and earning All-America honors in the event. His honor was one of four earned in the throws indoor as Jessica Pressley earned honors in the weight throw (second place) and shot put (fifth) and Stevens in the shot put (second).
Outdoors, the throwers again showed their strength, especially on the women's side as both Stevens and Pressley won one national title each and added three All-America honors and Tai Battle was the national runner-up in the discus. Stevens, the NCAA Champion in the discus, also placed sixth in the shot put and third in the hammer while Pressley, who successfully defended her shot put crown, placed fourth in the hammer and seventh in the discus. Whiting also earned All-America honors in the men's shot put with his runner-up finish and also in the discus, giving Dumble's athletes nine outdoor All-America honors and 13 for the entire season (one more than the 2007 season produced).
Adding in his work with 2008 Olympian and seven-time multi-event national champion Jacquelyn Johnson, Dumble has worked with four individuals that have captured 12 NCAA titles, including four in the shot put and one in the discus. He also has worked with seven different athletes that have combined to earn 40 All-America honors, including two of the most decorated women in ASU history, Stevens and Pressley, who are both 10-time All-Americans in their careers.
Academically, his athletes have been equally impressive as Whiting (men's indoor) and Stevens (women's outdoor) were selected as the USTFCCCA Division I Field Scholar-Athletes of the Year in 2008 before Lewis was honored in 2009 (men's indoor). Stevens, who was a two-time honoree after earning the 2007 indoor honor, was later selected as a recipient of the NCAA Top VIII Award, given annually to the Top 8 seniors in the nation (male and female combined) that exemplify what a student-athlete is all about: academic and athletic achievement and being involved in the community.
Over the past few years, Lewis, Whiting, Navarro and Stevens all have been selected as ESPN The Magazine Academic All-Americans and ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District VIII First Team honorees as well. The group also has been near the top of the list for academic honors from the Pac-10 and the MPSF, including Stevens, who was named the 2009 Pac-10 Scholar-Athlete of the Year for Women's Track & Field.
Prior to coming to Tempe, Dumble headed the throwers at Virginia Tech, where he was an assistant track and field coach for one year. His appointment with the Sun Devils is his second collegiate coaching position.
Dumble attended UCLA and twice earned All-America honors in the discus, with third and eighth-place finishes at the NCAA Championships in 1997 and 1996, respectively. Dumble also captained the 1997 Bruin squad and his UCLA best effort of 197-11 ranks 10th all-time in school history. He received his bachelor's degree in environmental studies from UCLA in 1997. He attended Bakersfield College prior to his stint in Westwood, where he was a junior college state champion in the discus and competed in all four throwing events, including the hammer and javelin. Following his time at UCLA, he competed for Reebok for three years and competed at the 2000 Olympic Trials and the USATF Championships twice.
An inductee into the Bakersfield College Hall of Fame, Dumble earned his Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) certificate from the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) and recently earned his Master's of Education degree in Higher and Secondary Education from Arizona State.

On January 7, 2010, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and Acer America Corp. announced a voluntary recall of approximately 22,000 Acer Aspire-series Notebook Computers, citing the potential for an internal microphone wire under the palm rest to short circuit and overheat. The wire can pose a burn hazard to consumers.
The recalled notebook models include the 13.3-inch screen notebooks with model numbers AS3410, AS3410T, AS3810T, AS3810TG, AS3810TZ, or AS3810TZG.
The company has received three reports of the defective notebooks short circuiting, which resulted in a slight melting of the external case, though no injuries have been reported. The defective notebooks were sold at ABS Computer Technologies, D&H Distributing, Fry's Electronics, Ingram Micro, Radio Shack, SED/American Express, Synnex Corporation, SYX Distribution, Tech Data Corporation, and other retailers nationwide and online from June 2009 through October 2009.
Consumers are instructed to stop using the recalled notebooks immediately and contact Acer at 866-695-2237 to determine if their computer is affected in order to receive a free repair.

Williams Named to Paul Hornung Award Watch List
Williams is the second Red Raider to be named to the Hornung Award Watch List (2011 - RB/KR Eric Stephens Jr.
July 7, 2014
LUBBOCK, Texas - Texas Tech senior Kenny Williams is one of 47 players that have been named to the Paul Hornung Award Watch List, the Louisville Sports Commission announced Monday.
The Paul Hornung Award presented by Texas Roadhouse is a national honor given annually to the most versatile player in major college football.
Williams, a running back for three seasons with the Red Raiders and now making the move to linebacker for the 2014 season, is the second Red Raider to make the award's watch list - now in its fifth season - joining running back/kick returner Eric Stephens Jr. in 2011.
Williams is one of five players from the Big 12 Conference that made the watch list, joining TCU's B.J. Catalon, Kansas State's Tyler Lockett, Baylor's Levi Norwood and Iowa State's Aaron Wimberly.
Williams has played in 36 career games as a Red Raider (23 starts - second most among active offensive players) with 311 rushes, 1,456 yards (4.7 avg.) with 15 rushing touchdowns. He has also made 52 career receptions with 479 receiving yards and has two receiving touchdowns.
Williams' junior season totals of 125 rushes, 497 rushing yards and eight rushing touchdowns led the team. He rushed for 824 yards as a sophomore in 2012, marking the most rushing yards by a Tech underclassmen (freshman or sophomore) since 2006 (Shannon Woods).

They'll Miss Me.... Eventually
The skeletal remains of an elderly Sydney woman were found in her home last week. She had died on her bed sometime in the last 8 years; that's the last time anyone can remember having contact with her. Her husband was long gone, she had no children, no family, no friends. Awful.
As I lay dying in my bed from Manflu last week, I got to thinking... would anyone miss me? Would anyone really notice if I quietly slipped away, lying here in my mound of quilts, used tissues, headache tablets, Country Home magazines, and vomit buckets, amidst wet patches of drool, snot and excrement? (okay, there was no excrement but I thought it sounded more dramatic)
I have two kids, so you'd think they'd notice. But they are teenagers, not noted for highly keen observation skills. They will stare into the fridge for a few seconds before announcing we have run out of yoghurt, despite six tubs staring them in the face. Or will wander around their room for a few minutes, tossing clothes and shoes aside, before announcing they have lost their wallet/purse/bus ticket/calculator/ipod/keys/wand(don't ask), despite me walking in there and being able to place my hand on the missing item within 17 seconds (my record is 2.5 seconds - would have been less but I tripped over a shoe on the way in). If I started to give off decomposition gases, I don't think they'd notice - you should smell their rooms. I guess eventually they would get sick of eating 2 minute noodles and come in to see if I would get up to cook something more substantial, like toasted sandwiches, and start weeping over my lifeless body. Or arguing over who gets my laptop.
I have a husband, but he was away. He knew I was sick and rang twice a day to check on me, and I would hope that if the son had answered every call and the Husband had not spoken to me at all, he would start to get suspicious by the third day. Maybe even worry a bit, and prompt the son to come in and poke me with a stick. After all, he'd need somebody to wash his shirts when he gets back from his trip, wouldn't he?
I have a best friend, but I only saw her and a few of our other friends the previous Saturday night, just as I was on the cusp of falling ill. I had a headache and razorblades in my throat at that stage, just the beginnings of a cold really, so they wouldn't have been expecting me to die any time soon. It would be another week or so before they missed me. Although, you'd think me leaving a birthday party (free food and booze) at 10.19 on a Saturday night, boobs covered up, still sober and walking upright, might be a sign that I was not quite myself.
I have parents, but I saw them the day after the birthday party when I huddled in the corner of their living room, sitting in the warmth of the sun streaming in the window, with a box of tissues on my lap, slipping in and out of the conversation (and probably consciousness). All I wanted to do was sleep, but I think I grunted and nodded in all the right places without offending them greatly, made a few sarcastic comments and rolled my eyes at appropriately timed moments. A normal visit, really.
I have siblings. Pffft.
I have That Fucking Cat. He would sit on my feet meowing, then start clawing me, trying to get me up to feed him. He would miss me for about one nanosecond, until someone else fed him and he would switch allegiance to their feet.
I have loads of other friends I see less often than my besties, so they would take a while to notice my absence. Although we do email reasonably regularly, so the lack of rude jokes, Maxine quotes and icanhascheezburger animal photos in their inboxes would be the first sign something was amiss. I did manage to flick off one email from my deathbed to organise a dinner in a few weeks time. That's if I'm still alive then.
I am such an erratic blogger and commenter that the blogging community would not miss me for ages. It's not unusual for me to not post anything for a few weeks, then do 3 in 8 days. And I'm so slack at commenting on others' blogs, it's more of a shock if you do see me, than if you don't.
I have Twitter 'friends', but I don't have a 'clique' I speak to every day who noticed my absence. That's okay, I was part of a real life clique once (maybe twice, okay, three times if you count high school, but let's concentrate on the last time about 12 years ago), and when someone gutsily informed me of this ("You lot are so cliquey") I skedaddled so fast out of that situation I caused a dust storm. I had no idea I was being an elitist snob, but once I stepped outside of the 'group' and made an effort to be friendly with everybody I could see how confining (and defining) it was, and how much other friendship I was missing out on. In fact, the dinner I have organised in a few weeks (again, assuming I'm still alive) would not be happening if I hadn't stepped outside that clique, as it is with a couple I immediately met on the exterior of that group and with whom I have maintained a solid friendship.
Anyway, I digress (blame the drugs)... I have missed people on Twitter before; I've been known to post caring tweets such as "Where the hell is @soandso?", "What in shit's name has happened to @whatshisface?" and "Are you fucking ignoring me @arsehat?" when tweeps have gone missing in action. Anyway, the lack of daily Cateisms on Twitter was eventually noticed, and to those of my 2,870 followers who sent messages looking for me, I hope you got my replies and I thank you. All five of you.
I have Facebook friends. But I'm so rarely on there nobody would notice my profile gathering cobwebs. In fact, some idiot would probably *like* it and put me in a group of "People Who Don't Update Often and May Therefore Be Dead".
I have neighbours. But I saw her a couple of weeks ago, it's Winter, so it wouldn't be unusual to go a few more weeks between sightings. They don't do their Sunday night Greek barbecues in Winter, so there's no need for me to hang over the fence hoping for leftovers to put in our toasted sandwiches.
I have extended, in-law family. But they would wait on news from the Husband before wondering if I was dead. And then use his time of grief and mourning and sorting out laptop arguments between the kids to come and steal Gran Green's chiffonier (which we just inherited after a 25 year wait... I don't mean we've waited that long for her to die, she was already dead, it has sat in the MIL's house and we've been told for 25 years that we'll 'be getting it one day'. I think she was waiting to see if our marriage would last)
Lance Armstrong might miss my stalking, err, I mean, scintillating conversation starters. The local courier would miss delivering all the stuff I order online. The lovely ladies at Dymocks would wonder why I hadn't entered their Friday Giveaway and the local bakery would probably go out of business. Okay, and the local boozery. Hey, it's near the bakery.
As a social experiment, my dying and not leaving the house or having much contact with the outside world has been interesting.
As a health and wellbeing experiment, it sucked hairy dogballs.
Oh, and the Husband is back from his trip... with Manflu.

I am glad you are still alive Miss Cate. I might have noticed had I not been missing from Twitter so much myself. It would probably take me 6 months to notice someone hadn't tweeted much. xxxxxxReplyDelete

Who are you again?ReplyDelete
PSSt - make your comment box a pop-up so we don't have to sign in continually. Blogger glitch.
I read the same story and wondered how I could turn it into a blog post, while being grateful at the same time that I have children who would come banging on my door if I didn't text or email at least once a week.ReplyDelete
I'm pretty sure your teenagers would fight over your laptop first, with only the loser then weeping over your dead body loudly wailing, "why didn't you have two laptops?"
Hope you get better soon. I always look forward to your posts, they're always amusing. I think I started following you when you posted a number of posts in a short time, and then there was a bit longer between them.ReplyDelete
Rug up and stay warm xx
The time would come when the cat would stop bothering you, and start eating you; then the kids would wonder why they were going hungry whilst the cat got fatter. Give it a day or two after that and they'd probably come in looking for a takeaway menu.ReplyDelete
Normally I'm a raving leftie, but I think you do have to take some personal responsibility if you want to be missed and get out there and remind people of how fabulous you are! Now you probably think I'm your mum....ReplyDelete
I'm glad you're still alive.ReplyDelete
I was talking to another Mum about this the other day. She was seriously ill and her Ex had taken the kids off her hands so she could rest, and her friends had left her alone so she could rest. Turned out she needed to get straight to hospital ... I'm a single Mum too, and sometimes don't have my kids. We have both vowed to come up with a system where a group of us check on each other regularly. Because really, no one would notice if I was ill or dead, at least until my kids came home. Scary thought.
I would miss you to the moon and back..... For what it's worth xxxReplyDelete
I'm inviting you to my next party. But you're not allowed to leave until well after midnight.ReplyDelete
Funny, the last time I was deathly ill or close to it, I had similar thoughts that you described. Just so you know, I would miss you, or at least your blogs, LOL. But it's ok to sit on a pity pot every now & then. As always, you crack me up. Hope you're feeling better. ;)ReplyDelete
Hahaha....heyyyyy...did You change the way we post on here, or what? WTH????ReplyDelete
Anyhooooow....You been missing? I hadn't noticed! LOL Actually....I HAVE Noticed. I miss the days when You were on Twitter everyday! And being how we haven't connected on FB...You may actually be dead! *YIKES*
You were part of My "Fun Clique"...erm...I mean...You were funny!
Dry the snot and tears Girl! Pour us a Wine and we'll *CLinK* 'til the Cows come home! Oh...and BTW....Great post! ;P
I'd miss you. But you're right, it would probably take me a good week to realise I wasn't just missing you due to timing on Twitter, but more so that you were AWOL.ReplyDelete
Good news is, I reckon you'd only be left alone for 3 hours tops. Those kids need their yoghurt after all.
Glad you're feeling better. xx
Oh FFS. It's two days after you published this post and I have only just got round to reading it.ReplyDelete
Are you still alive? I bloody well hope so, otherwise I will be seriously pissed off.
No one to play silly Twitter-tag with during office hours.
LCM x
I've spent the better part of the last six MONTHS missing you! On Twitter, that is. Just keep getting my timing wrong. And you won't believe me now that I've finally come here and read this post, but I was only just this past week wondering what had happened to you - never seem to see you anymore! (But I think that's more me, not you)ReplyDelete
Absolutely hilarious! Thank you for the sustained laughs and I imagine husband being sick will warrant another post as they never let anyone forget they're suffering!ReplyDelete
Funny stuff....not you being dead, of course, just your self imagination of your death.ReplyDelete
