...yahoo doesn't like some URLs obviously....
Ignore that garbled link in the last post, I tried to paste the link into the message again, and instead of failing this time it simply split the URL on presumably what it thought was a special character.
I don;'t know if anyone read this - what the heck anyway.
The question I'd like to ask now is, what contingencies do you think Spurs had?
On the assumption that:
1) Levy was aware as anyone of 'arry's high regard for the England job
2) The England board would never have accepted 'arry if he'd lost the tax case
3) Levy doesn't act alone, Lewis is kept abreast of 'significant 'changes
4) 'arry wins the case and is universally put forward as the England manager 'in waiting'
Do you think that Levy/Lewis would have started at that point, to put plans in motion re a replacement manager?
At that time, stories did start surfacing re the compensation Spurs would have wanted for 'arry.
Irrespective of what then happened with results, CL, Hodgson etc. Do you think that 'arry's demise was triggered purley by the speculation anyway?
What I mean there is maybe, until that point 'arry was relatively safe. Spurs weren't considering a new manager. But as soon as 'arry was linked to England each day, in virtually every paper/sports channel/ online.- the board had to start looking for a potential replacement. Did that act then in itself put doubts in their mind about 'arry?
I would guess that Spurs have already had feelers out. I would think it would be not negligent as that is too harsh, but remiss of them not to have.
So why now a delay? Is it a 'mourning period' - they got so slammed after the Jol/Ramos affair - do you think they are leaving a 'decent' period before being seen to do anything this time?
I know Levy has had a bereavement. But as I say, I would have thought they would have been looking since Feb time anyway.
Levy is back on Monday isn't he? Do you expect an announcement next week?

Personally I don't have any doubt that when Arry made it clear he would accept the England job if it was offered plans were put in place to find a successor.
This may have helped make the decision to let Arry go when he did not actually get offered the England job and if it did Arry has only himself to blame.
It may be that Levy has/had a replacement in mind but for whatever reason it has A) fallen through (excessive salary demands!) or B) whoever it is cannot commit to signing the contract yet (Laurent Blanc!)
If it is A then I hope they get it sorted ASAP to give the new man a chance in the transfer market and if its B then I would be reasonably happy if Blanc gets the job.
As for Jol, you are talking to the wrong man. I didn't like him and still don't now. IMO I think Jol was sacked for buying useless players and wasting money but thats just my opinion. The fact that he speaks like the Swedish Chef off The Muppets didn't help. Yes Jol was popular with some fans although I personally could never understand why. The moment he insisted on playing Tanio in MF I lost respect for the man. His sacking had nothing to do with Spurs thinking they could land a better manager IMO.
As for Arry "pretending" all you have to do is look at the way he has handled the whole affair since being unceremoniously ignored by the FA. Half smiling and half joking about it as if he couldn't care less even though, as you have pointed out several times, he made very public statements about it being the pinnacle of a managers career. He was and is gutted about it. Then, having made it crystal clear he would have taken it if they had offered it even with a minimum wage salary, he feigns surprise that Levy is not happy. Instead of going cap in hand to Levy and admitting he got it wrong, he asks for a contract extension and more money.
It is that last bit that gets to me. It is that why I am not sad to see him go. Up to that point I would have still said give him another year. Nothing to do with not liking the man - which I actually do - its the way he has acted since being dumped.
The life savings analagy I thought I would throw in seeing as you like analagies so much and I can't see what you don't understand about it - its very quite simple - yes I like him as a cheeky chappie and good team motivator - would I trust him??? No - simples. Its not a character assassination FFS. Its my opinion as I am sure you must know people you would not lend a fiver too because you know you wouldn't get it back.
You like him, you don't think he has done anything wrong, you think he has been dealt with unfairly, you think everybody else is picking on him - fine. You believe what you want but stop having a go at me because I (and others) don't think the same way as you do.
Blinkey blimey Sfer, that was a bit OTT don't you think?
If that first paragraph is what you thought of 'arry, and given that all the things you appear to accuse him of, occurred way back (mostly before Spurs), then why on earth get on your high horse now?
So I assume again that you opening comments are just vitriol.
As I have tried to show you, which you seem to want to ignore, 'arry made most of the comments re his view of the importance of the England years back. It wasn't new (or news) to me - and I'm certain that you knew as well how 'arry regarded the job. I would then assume Levy did. So obviously 'arry's thoughts on the England job weren't all that got him sacked.
As for your comment re Levy and 'risking the fans backlash' - Can I just ask then why Jol was sacked? Wasn't Jol popular with fans and squad? Wasn't Jol sacked because Spurs thought they could land a 'better' manager?
The last about about 'arry pretending he doesn't understand and making out he's blameless. Can you point me to where he's said that, I must have missed it. Is it the same as your '...loads of people turned down the England job....' comment? Or is it a throwaway like the Gio as a sub comment?
What on earth has your trusting him with your life savings to do with anything? Isn't that again another 'character' assassination comment like your opening paragraph? If you're that anti - why on earth would you have given him another year?
You just seem to be raking up whatever you can to try to justify how you know feel about 'arry. Odd that all the things you accuse him off, he had done (or been accused of) up to 4-5-6 years ago.
You're right. We'll never know.
One question.
When did 'arry first say that the England job was the pinnacle and that any manager would find it hard to turn down?
100% agree sfer. i like the way u dont waffle on like a politican & avoid answering the question, unlike our "harry can do no wrong" poster john.
harry wanted to leave us for the england job.
he doesnt get the england job.
he then goes to the media asking for spurs to commit to him!
he then gets an agent to get him a pay rise & a 3yr contract extension.
that was out of order, disrespectful & too cheeky!
john will waffle on for pages defending harry for all of this, without actually having 1 good strong argument in his favour.
such long weak cringing arguments too.
john also changes his whole way of thinking to suit a defence of harrys!
john, can u really not see how weak, poor, contradictory & pathetic your pro harry posts are?!
john, u remind me of a hitler follower.
no matter how many wrongs they commit, u still try to defend & justify it.
swap hitler for harry!
Not to mention our one win away from home in the league in 2012, which in itself was a repeat performance from the previous season tail off......................Yes 4th place was great but it was the very least to expect giving our form up until the England job became vacant?? At the end we could of easily been 6th as-well?? I think the boards decision was clearly tipped by his courting of the England job and our dire dip in form which was 3 wins in 14 I think.
Sacking Redknapp actually shows our ambition at the club !!
'harry wanted to leave us for the england job.
he doesnt get the england job.
he then goes to the media asking for spurs to commit to him!
he then gets an agent to get him a pay rise & a 3yr contract extension'
If I was on the board, the above alone (discounting 'Arry's other short comings) would be enough reason to remove Harry.
Using the media as Harry did as leverage to try and secure a bigger, better contact IMO shows a lack of respect to the club. I have nothing against him looking after him and his own, but he could have done this in the right way, IE sitting down mano-a-mano and negotiating.
I don't believe Levy had much choice but to let Harry go, if a player was to use the media in this way to try and secure a BBD, then I think the same course of action would be followed.
No player can be bigger than our beloved club, IMO no manager can be bigger either.
Get the Vertonghen deal done.
'arry got 30 points in the second half of the season. 30 points. Even at that rate its circa 60 points a season.
If 'arry messed it up, I'd hate to think what your appraisal is of the managers we've had since 2001. I've not seen consistency like 'arry instilled since , what, the 1980's? That's then 30 years of managers not getting near what 'arry did?
I would have liked in the last 30 years all the managers to have messed up as 'arry has - I think I would have been a happy supporter.
That's not saying someone couldn't have done even better - maybe. But that's all hypothetical and we'll never know. I just know what 'arry did in the 4 years - and he did it with style.
PS What was the contract he was offered - is there an article I can read as I must have missed it?
Well, I can see that we let a big lead slip. But that isn't the first time in history a club has done that. It happens all the time. It also happens in reverse. Look at Woolwich - their early season was poor, but second half good. Was Wenger then distracted by something - or is it just something that occurs?
So even by your own statement Woolwich were 8pts ahead of us - didn't then Wenger let that lead slip as we ended up 1pt behind?
'.....so that 30 points in the last half of the season just sounds like window dressing that Redknapp himself would use to pass the blame on to someone else!! .....'
Window dressing? Good grief. We finished 4th. How quickly people forget when we used to habitually be mid table. And as for 'arry using that to pass the blame - pass what blame? And how would saying (even if he had) that we got 30pts in the second half of the season and finished 4th, be passing blame?

Skip to comments.Reporter Disputes Ari Fleischer's Testimony at CIA Leak Trial (David Gregory told of Wilson's wife)
Posted on 01/30/2007 9:29:01 AM PST by tobyhill
WASHINGTON A former Time Magazine correspondent says former White House press secretary Ari Fleischer got it wrong when he testified under oath Monday at the CIA leak trial that he disclosed to the journalist the identity of a secret CIA operative.
"I assumed that in some context, my name would come up," John Dickerson, Slate Magazine's chief political correspondent, told FOXNews.com on his way Tuesday to cover the trial. "I didn't realize it would come up in that fashion."
Fleischer took the stand Monday to answer questions in the trial of I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, former chief of staff to Vice President Dick Cheney. Libby is charged with perjury and obstruction relating to the investigation of who outed CIA operative Valerie Plame.
Fleischer also testified that he first heard about Plame from Libby over lunch on July 7, 2003. Libby says he first learned about Plame on July 10 from NBC reporter Tim Russert.
Dickerson said he was surprised when he heard his name and his photo popped up on the big screen in the courtroom when Fleisher took the stand.
"I was at the Scooter Libby trial to cover it, and all of a sudden, I found myself in the middle of the case," Dickerson wrote.
(Excerpt) Read more at foxnews.com ...
So far, how many people have gotten testimony incorrect.
My grandma used to tell me stories about Valerie Plame when I was little
When does David Gregory get indicted?
I wonder if the defense will call the witness as a result of this revelation. I think I would.
She use to deliver our mail; covertly, of course.
LOL! I wouldv'e thought that story was too scary for a little kid! ;-)
Rules don't seem to apply in this witch hunt.
It was my grandmother who told your grandmother (ha)!
The whole trial is a he said, she said.
I had this on the other thread
As someone who is clueless I can state with certainty what is going on:
Everyone who might have leaked has now admitted that they leaked. That way they they cant be accused of lying about not leaking, but if they didnt leak, and falsely admit leaking, no one will question them about not leaking....Scooter didnt get the memo
I think that is the plan, to show that no one has a clear memory of just who told whom and when. I think that the plan is to demonstrate that the information was not that big an issue because no one thought that the information was classified, so the timeline was not something that stuck in anyone's mind.
Thanks for the ping.
No kidding.
From the rest of the article:
Prosecutors are using testimony from journalists to show Libby lied about what he told reporters he knew about Plame.
Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald will begin calling reporters to the stand Tuesday...
Evidently they are lining up outside the courthouse to destroy Libby and the Bush administration and save their sorry asses.
Fleischer said he told Dickerson, then White House correspondent for Time, that he had told him that Wilson's wife worked at the CIA.
Told him that he had told him?
Fleischer said he told Dickerson and David Gregory of NBC that Wilson's wife worked at the CIA, Dickerson wrote.
Then why isn't Ari on trial for outting a CIA "agent?"
Can you diagram that sentence for me??
In this case I don't think the defense is objecting to hearsay, although they are entitled to. If it helps their case they don't have to object.
God help us all.
As the saying goes:
It's 99% of the lawyers that give the rest of us a bad name!
My impression is that no one testifying has been able to correctly recollect what occured and when. Seems to me they should all be charged with perjury and obstruction...not just Libby.
My mother sang 'Valerie Plame Looked for the Union Label' lullabies to me when I was young. ;-)
Well, let me think about this. Who do I believe, David Gregory or Ari Fleisher? Sorry, David -- you lose!
sorry, the drugs havent worn off yet
And I am beginning to wonder about Ari.
Why DID he leave the White House in such a rush?
Yes, and the "she" is Joe Wilson.
Is this the "I am Spartacus" strategy? Ironic that Scooter is the only one who didn't say it and got burned.
I'm with Howlin, there seems to be some very old political karma at play here. We may need to wait ten years until the insider books are written to actually understand this.
Yesterday, Matthews kept on insisting that Cheney did request that the CIA check into the Niger-Iraq connection. Matthews seemed to think this needed to be stressed. It seemed like an odd place for Matthews to draw a line in the sand.
Impeach the witnesses' memory and recollection (jury should get the drift without the expert's testimony), impeach the "investigation", impeach Nifong's... er, Fitzgerald's ulterior MOTIVEs.
Considering this case is all about creating ripples leading to Impeachment, I love your characterization. :-)
I just posted this on another thread:
Is it just me, or is there something wrong with thinking that when two officials of the same administration discuss something like this, i.e., Plame, that is NOT leaking?
It sounds to me like Ari is the one who drew first blood.
I thought he had a job offer in the private sector. Hey, just looking at the faces of the characters involved, I would say that I would not trust any of them, especially the prosecutor!
This whole thing reeks to high heaven and makes my brain hurt.
It's crap like this that almost makes me want to dedicate my life to watching Oprah and American Idol.
"My grandma used to tell me stories about Valerie Plame when I was little"
I keep mixing up the Valerie Plame with the Andrea Doria.
Funny how I never get called for jury duty any more.
MSNBC expended a lot of oxygen talking about how scandalous it was that Plame's name was revealed. If it turns out that they knew all along who Joe Wilson's wife was, what do they look like?
I've wondered a lot about Ari ever since he announced his sudden resignation..... before that I just thought he was a well-meaning but dull and ineffective PR spokesman. Once he ran out the door just as Pflamegate was heating up, it made me suspect that he had said/done something he shouldn't have, or else he knew about something that he didn't want to be associated with..... Who IS Ari Fleischer?
I'm so glad we have Tony Snow instead of Ari in that spokesman role, but I'd still like to know what the whole story with Ari might turn out to be.....
You know what happened the last time I was called down to the Wake County courthouse..........LOL.
I was shown the door.
The key issue for the defense SHOULD be, does it even matter if someone mentioned Valarie Plame, aka Wilson, worked at the CIA? She hadn't been in the field for a number of years, so it appears that telling people she worked for the CIA wasn't any kind of crime.
After Armitage was "outed", media went silent on this, except when having to report they kept falling back on usual spin of "accused of", "on trial for", "suspected of" nonsense.
The media doesn't want to be a part of this trial, they've done their damage and want this over, pronto.
Prediction: I wouldn't want to be in Libby's shoes with my fate in the hands of a DC jury. Too bad he didn't go for a change of venue.

Uncovering the link between go and education Go is a game, a hobby, a profession. It's a competition, it's a communication tool and it's a way of life. But what happens when go enters home and school as an educational tool? Xinming Simon Guo, founder of the Go and Math Academy in Chicago, Illinois, will explore go's impact in his keynote remarks at this year's US Go Congress opening ceremonies this Saturday in St. Paul, Minnesota. "Imagine an era in which every student has opportunities to learn math through go and fall in love with both of them," says Guo.

Chicago Kids Compete in First Tourney
Thursday May 21, 2015
Students from Andrew Jackson Language Academy(AJLA), in Chicago, just finished their first go tournament for kids in the Chinese program, reports organizer Xinming Simon Guo. "Students first played with opponents in the same grade, and then the winners in each grade competed for the school championship, which was won by Winston from, the 7th grade," said Guo. A year ago, few students at AJLA had ever heard of go (weiqi in Chinese). "We started to introduce this game to our students in March of 2014. The kids loved this game. I still remember that they were chanting 'Weiqi Weiqi' while waiting outside of the classroom after the first lesson", said Christina Xu, the Chinese language teacher at the school, who also ran the tournament.
The weiqi class is part of the Chinese Artists-In-Residency Program, co-sponsored by the Confucius Institute in Chicago and Guo's own GoAndMath Academy. "We support teachers in integrating weiqi into language teaching classrooms," says Guo, "participating and learning are more important than winning. Weiqi is also an innovative tool for teaching elementary math. Our research shows that there exists a natural connection between weiqi and the Common Core State Standards of math. During the game, students experience numerous math concepts without even noticing them." The school is considering bringing more weiqi classes to the students, and planning to organize a 2nd weiqi tournament next year. -Paul Barchilon, E-J Youth Editor.

Go and Math Workshop for Educators
Friday January 9, 2015
Xinming Simon Guo, a licensed Math teacher in Illinois and founder of Go and Math Academy, will organize an educational workshop at the 2015 Conference of MMC (Metropolitan Mathematics Club) of Chicago. The workshop will be Saturday, January 24, at Adlai E. Stevenson High School, Lincolnshire, IL. Guo has been advocating go and math in the educational world for many years. Math teachers, math educators, school administrators and even go amateurs are welcome to attend. Details are available at http://mmc2015conference.com.
Weiqi Wows in Chicago Public School Cultural Event
Thursday November 6, 2014
Students, parents and educators from across Chicago gathered on November 1 to celebrate the Chicago Public Schools Seal of Bi-literacy program, designed to help students to learn and understand more than one language, culture and art. Volunteers from the local community, the Go and Math Academy and the Confucius Institute in Chicago participated to promote Chinese language and arts. Visitors, especially young kids, were attracted by go, known as weiqi in China. "Some kids stayed at our booth and played weiqi for more than an hour," reports Xinming "Simon" Guo. "They even called their friends over to learn the game together. Photographers and news video camera crew also circled around our booth and the weiqi board. The event organizer told us that our booth, with the weiqi game introduction and Chinese characters Tattoos activity, was the most popular one among all exhibitors." photos courtesy Simon Guo; click here for more photos.
Volunteers Wanted for Chicago GoFest
Friday August 22, 2014
The Go and Math Academy in Chicago is looking for volunteers to help to promote go/weiqi at a Chinese cultural festival on September 27. About 1,500 students are expected to attend the daylong festival. "We need volunteers to prepare some activities and interact with visitors," says local organizer Xinming Simon Guo 2d. "Because we have promoted go in Chicago schools for many years (McCormick Elementary Students Learn Go (And Math)) 7/29 EJ), probably some visitors already know the basic rules." Contact Guo at firstname.lastname@example.com for details on how to volunteer.

McCormick Elementary Students Learn Go (And Math)
Tuesday July 29, 2014
Students at McCormick Elementary, in Chicago, IL, had the opportunity recently to learn to play go from Xinming Simon Guo 2d, a licensed math teacher and founder of the GoAndMath Academy. "Students were playing a simple game during the class, blissfully unaware that they were also working on math skills as they put every stone on the board and counted the result at the end of the game," Guo told the E-Journal.
At McCormick, the go class is part of the Chinese Artists-In-Residency Program, co-sponsored by Confucius Institute in Chicago (CIC) and GoAndMath Academy. The Chinese language teachers at McCormick — where 99.5% of the students are hispanic and 50% are English Language Learners – Ms. Yeh and Ms. Huang, heard about the go program during the professional workshop organized by CIC last year. "Go is an ideal tool to achieve the goal of our Chinese curriculum–to enhance students' understanding of Chinese culture, and reinforce their learning of language skills," says Guo. "During the entire 2013-2014 school year, the go program offered more than 130 learning sections to more than 4500 students in Chicago public schools," said Jane Lu, the director of CIC and coordinator of CPS Chinese World Language Program.
"Go is not just a simple game," says Guo. "Research by GoAndMath Academy reveals that there exists a hidden natural connection between math and go. Students can experience math concepts without even noticing them. More specifically, go helps students develop number sense, and three domains in Common Core standards: Counting and Cardinality; Operations and Algebraic Thinking; and Number and Operations in Base Ten. GoAndMath Academy designed the educational go program, which is appropriate for Pre-K through eighth grade, is aligned with the common core standards, and can be played with peers in school or around the world. This fantastic game combines math, science, art, and competition, as well as ancient oriental philosophy and culture. Go requires the highest level of critical thinking. It cultivates the abilities of observing, reflecting, imagining, reasoning, innovating, and decision-making," says Guo.

Future Teachers Learn About Go
Monday June 4, 2012
Chicago, IL, math teacher Xinming Simon Guo (at right in green shirt) introduced go to 10 pre-service teachers (teaching students) at National Louis University on May 22. "I began my introduction to go by pointing out the geometric shapes of circles and lines on the go board, allowing teachers to see connections between go and Number Theory," reports Guo. "Next I discussed the fundamental origin of go and the basic rules of the game, and then talked about the deep Chinese culture embedded in the game. These pre-service teachers started their first games on small 9×9 boards after they had learned two basic terms, "Qi" ("liberty") and "Atari" (stones with only one qi left). After the games finished, we discussed how to integrate the game with Common Core State Standards of Math, which are internationally benchmarked standards and assessments to prepare students for success in college and the workplace." Pre-service education is for student teachers, who have not yet taught in a classroom. "Since I teach math, Chinese, and go, I am able to combine all of them in an approach to learning and problem-solving," says Guo. "In my math classes I introduce go as a tool to cultivate number sense. Students can get an intuitive understanding of numbers, their magnitude, relationships, and how they are affected by operations. In my Chinese language classes, I introduce go with visual literacy, which helps beginners to learn numbers in Chinese. For advanced Chinese language learners, go can be one centerpiece to link the 5C standards for Foreign Language Learning in the 21st Century: Communication, Culture, Connections, Comparisons, and Communities. In my go class, math and Chinese language elements are threaded throughout the curriculum. The pre-service workshop was a very special opportunity for me," said Guo, "because my students were teachers. If one teacher learns about go and is passionate about it, then his or her students will have more chances to touch this marvelous game," added Guo. - Paul Barchilon, EJ Youth Editor; photo: Guo teaching kids at Lake Forest Academy.
Guo Named AGF Teacher of the Year
Sunday June 28, 2015
Xinming Simon Guo 1d, of Chicago, Illinois, has been named the AGF Teacher of the Year, winning a free trip to the 2015 U.S. Go Congress in St. Paul, Minnesota. Guo has been active in youth go promotion for years, first partnering with the Confucius Institute in Chicago in the fall of 2012 to offer go instruction to Chinese language classrooms. "This program has been very successful," Guo told the Journal. "Some schools requested more instructional hours, and some schools added go to their after-school program. More teachers joined this program in 2014 and 2015. One school started a tournament after my introduction courses. Meanwhile, I have started to train teachers to meet the increasing demand for go in Chicago's schools."
In 2012, Guo founded the GoAndMath Academy, whose mission is "to use go to help develop students' math ability, especially number sense." In 2013 and 2014, Guo organized several workshops, one was to aid Chinese teachers in the Chicago area in bringing go to the classroom as a part of Chinese culture. The other two workshops were directed towards math teachers at ICTM (Illinois Council of Teachers of Mathematics) in October of 2013 and MMC (Metropolitan Mathematics Club of Chicago) in February of 2014. "During these workshops, I gave a presentation on the link between go and Common Core State Standards," Guo told the E-Journal. "I taught teachers how to play go and how the game can be integrated into math classrooms. Specifically, the teachers learned ways to incorporate go to help students develop number sense and incorporate three domains in Common Core standards — Counting and Cardinality, Operations and Algebraic Thinking, Number and Operations in Base Ten." Guo's approach to integrating go into American school curricula affected about 3,500 students and 50 teachers in 2013, and subsequently 6,500 students in 2014.
"As a licensed math teacher and a go instructor, I will continue to research how go helps develop students' number sense and other math abilities. Currently, I am designing a go and math curriculum that can be easily used in school settings, especially in math classrooms." Guo is currently affiliated with over forty schools in the Chicago area, three universities, and three museums and libraries. Guo will give a talk at the US Go Congress on Monday, Aug. 3. "My plan is to let go players know that go can help math and it is correlated with the new Common Core Math Standards. This is a powerful research result to extend go to school programs, and this is what I have done for years. Usually I present this go and math correlation to math teachers and educators in conference. I will adjust it for go players. I am a go player for math teachers and math teacher for go players," adds Guo. -EJ special report, by Amy Su. Photo: Guo (standing) teaching kids, from GoandMath Academy's Facebook page.
Nash Shares 2015 Abel Prize
Monday April 6, 2015
The Norwegian Academy of Sciences and Letters has decided to award the Abel Prize for 2015 to the American mathematicians John F. Nash Jr. (left) and Louis Nirenberg "for striking and seminal contributions to the theory of nonlinear partial differential equations and its applications to geometric analysis." Outside mathematics, Nash is best known for a paper he wrote about game theory, the mathematics of decision-making, which ultimately won him the 1994 Nobel Prize for economics, and which features prominently in the 2001 film about him, A Beautiful Mind. That film included a scene of Nash — played by Russell Crowe (left, in photo at right) — playing go at Princeton that sparked interest in the game after the film's release.

Personalized Family Tree Ornament Giveaway | I'm Lovin' It
Family traditions are one of my favorite things about the holidays. It's so special to have meaningful things that we do as a family year after year. When our girls were younger, my mom would give them an ornament each year and we would put their name on it. They get so excited when we put the tree up, to dig thru our ornament box and reminisce about each one. When Heather moved to her own place, she took all of "her" ornaments with her, so it made her new tree feel a little like home.
When it is time to put the tree up, they each place their ornaments where they want on the tree………I may be known to go around and "fix them" a little later 😉
For some reason, we don't have many "family" ornaments. We have the "Our First Christmas Ornament" that is 27 years old and still standing!!! I love the idea of having a special ornament to represent our whole family though. This year I'm starting a new tradition! I want FAMILY ornaments……..that way when our last one goes and we have an empty nest, we don't have an empty tree!
So it's no doubt that I fell in love with the new Family Christmas Tree Ornament from The Vintage Pearl. Isn't she a beauty?! I can't wait to hang it on our tree.
Erin at The Vintage Pearl was so kind to send my family a Personalized Christmas Family Tree ornament . The ornament arrived in a small tan box nestled in padding and wrapped in a pretty pale blue ribbon accented with a pearl. Perfect for gift giving, if you'd like to give one as a gift.
Speaking of gifts…….. The Vintage Pearl products are all handmade by Erin and her team in their Tulsa, OK studio. They use quality materials like silver, gold, swarovski crystals and freshwater pearls. They have a large assortment of Handstamped Jewelry. It is always fun to have something unique and personalized just for you or someone special.

Long Day's Journey Into Night
by Eugene O'Neill
The Wedding Dress and Booth's Praise
Symbolism, Imagery, Allegory
Both of the Tyrone parents have a carefully hidden object that they used to look at every once in a while to remind themselves about what they've lost. Mary's wedding dress brings to mind her happiness with her father, innocence, youth, beauty – what you will. James keeps a piece of paper printed with praise from famous actor Edwin Booth of James's performance of Othello.
The dress and the paper each stand in for a history that's dead to the Tyrones, leading to the loss of the objects themselves. The wedding dress, however, is recovered in the final scene, as Mary regresses back to childhood – crazily and artificially, but still, she does seem to recover her lost history, for a time.

Re-Learn Addiction
How Nicotine Addiction Works
So you've learned a few things about Re-learning Habit. And you've made it through the first part of re-learning life without cigarettes — how to deal with all of the habits you connect with lighting up. But smoking is more than just a series of "bad habits." It's a physical addiction.
So let's talk about re-learning what you know about addiction. Few people realize how the nicotine in cigarettes actually changes their brain. Dr. Richard Hurt from Mayo Clinic's Nicotine Dependence Center is a leading expert in the field of smoking cessation. In the videos below, Dr. Hurt explains the physical nature of addiction to cigarettes and just how powerful it can be. He'll also tell you how medication can DOUBLE your chances of quitting smoking and help you pick the right one for you. Lots of people say they don't want to use medication to quit smoking, because they think it's something they should do on their own with just their willpower. Or they've tried a medication before and don't think it worked. If you're one of those people, all we can say is trust us on this. Just hear what Dr. Hurt has to say and then make up your mind.
The nicotine patch is another option. Just put it on in the morning and you're good to go for the whole day. The patch gives you a continuous flow of nicotine, all day long. However, it takes a bit it longer for the nicotine to get into your system. It's perfectly okay, though, to use the nicotine patch for its continuous flow of nicotine and then also use nicotine gum or nicotine lozenges to deal with the cravings, when you have them. It's also perfectly okay to keep the nicotine patch on through the night. In fact, most people sleep better, because the patch relieves nicotine withdrawal symptoms which can disturb sleep. Some people have vivid dreams due to the nicotine patch. If this is disturbing to you, simply take the patch off at bedtime. No prescription is needed for the patch, but it's a good idea to talk with your health care provider before using it.
Video: Quit Smoking Aids: Nicotine Patch
The nicotine patch is easy to use and a simple concept. The nicotine patch delivers nicotine to your system. Put a patch on in the morning, and you're good to go for the whole day. No prescription is needed. It takes a bit longer for the nicotine to get into your system, but it gives you a continuous dose of nicotine all day. You can use it along with nicotine gum or lozenges, too. Listen to Dr. Hurt's advice on how to best use the patch. It's another stop smoking aid in your arsenal to help you quit smoking.

I believe that most of us had expected to hear Vitali Klitschko announcing his retirement from boxing sometime soon. And exactly this happened, as Vitali's political agenda and involvement in Ukraine swiftly took a turn, and required an entirety of his time and attention. Not only is Vitali dealing with a vicious wave of protests, but is also trying to win over the people and the majority vote that would land him in the presidential office.
Many boxing fans had expressed their respect for Vitali and his years of dedication to boxing, still showing that they are pleased that he made space for the younger and possibly more exciting heavyweight fighters out there.
Having said that, Vitali Klitschko himself declines to agree that he had ended his career and left boxing forever:
"I am officially declaring that I am not ending my boxing career. More accurately, I am halting it, as I did once before, almost 10 years ago, when I was absent for around 4 years. And then I came back and reclaimed the belt. Being an emeritus champion with the opportunity given to me by WBC and the head of the organization Jose Sulaiman, gives me the theoretical opportunity for return," stated the older Klitschko in a recent interview.
Of course when Vitali Klitschko returned to the ring last time, he was not only younger, but also had less outside distractions. While I highly doubt that we will ever see Vitali back in the ring as an opponent, it is not impossible, and becomes more likely if his political career ends without his goals being achieved.

You obviously watched a different game to everyone else in the Riverside? Ha ha ha ha!Boro were VERY LUCKY to get one point, so smoggies, count your blessings that your team dug in for you lot, and managed not to lose all 3 points.Boro are expected to win games at home you know? but I guess its to be expected that Boro getting a draw at home against NUFC is their BIG RESULT of the season! Ha ha ha!It was lovely to see Viduka bang a cracker of a goal in against his former club! That SILENCED the boo boys and Viduka verbal bashers!!! ha ha ha ha ha!N'Zogbia's goal was a beauty too, he couldnt have banged on in better if he'd tried.I'm loving the joy and glee that you lot are clearly getting from NUFC players getting injured at Boro, it clearly shows the highlights you can take from your OWN players performances from the fixture? (note the sarcasm)Apart from Mido, the Boro team really underperformed on home turf, Arca played well though, and I laughed at the runaround that Woodgate got from Martins, he couldnt cope with his speed! I bet part of Woodgate wishes he'd re-signed for the Toon now!?!Boro only showing some determination after conceading goals is a worrying sign, they never looked like winning the fixture from the kick off, and if your honest about this, you should be in agreement.Please take note on the return venue at St James Park, there will be at least 52,000 people there to see a "supposed" North Eastern Derby game, the Boro fans yet again FAILED to fill their stadium, and were EASILY outsung by a few Geordies.You really need to be beating NUFC to make this claim to being the Top North Eastern Club, something which Boro are clearly not, but I'll give credit where credits due, Boro didnt get the hammering that I thought they would.So, well done Smoggies you earned a good point.

A Moon And The Stars - Poem by Veeraiyah Subbulakshmi
When you wink at me,
With your eyes planted on me,
Thousands of blooms grow,
In me, my beautiful face glow,
In the sky every two fortnight,
When the dwellers of the earth,
Need the comfortable warmth,
To speak to their hearts,
They look at me with envy,
Beauty of mine never diminishes,
Nor polluted as the aging earth mother,
Spin of mine makes your hearts to blabber,
Shunning of my seduction in the presence of sun brother,
Don't look at me, constellation,
You too would be beyond consolation.

Guest post: Going freelance in a down economy
Going out on your own is scary enough, so why would any sane person do it in an economy like this one? Because a bad economy may actually be a good time to start a freelance career.
At least that's what Susan Johnston is hoping. Johnston is a Boston writer and creator of The Urban Muse blog, which I've mentioned here before. Though Johnston has freelanced for some time, she recently left a steady job to pursue it full time. She's agreed to talk about what led to her decision and how she's making it work in this WordCount guest post. Here's her story:
I've been freelancing for several years, but I finally made the leap to full time freelancing a little less than a month ago. Most of the people in my life were supportive but a few practical people wondered, "Are you sure this is the right time? Why not wait until the economy bounces back?"
I concluded that there is never a "perfect" time to make a major life change, so I trusted my gut and jumped in. Here's how I did it.
1. Minimize spending. Even though I had a bit of cushion when I quit my job, I also know that editors and clients can take a long time to process payment. In the case of one website, it took over a year for me to get paid – needless to say I don't write for them anymore. Fortunately, I'm a saver by nature and several of my clients do pay promptly, but working from home has made it even easier to curb my spending. I can go to the movie matinee instead of paying full price. Plus, I'm not buying as many convenience foods and I don't have to pay for dry cleaning or commuting costs anymore. Which makes me wonder why I didn't leave my job sooner.
2. Diversify. I'd love to spend all my time writing magazine features, but with advertising dollars down, many of my editors just aren't handing out as many assignments as they used to. Fortunately, I also do copywriting, which offers a decent hourly rate and steady work while I send out queries. I also picked up some extra cash proofreading marketing materials and writing for a local guidebook. Though I haven't had to rely on it yet, I also contacted some creative staffing firms about picking up extra work through them. Other writers tell me this is a great way to fill the gaps between assignments.
3. Use those contacts. When I told my boss I was going full time freelance, I softened the blow by offering to complete some projects remotely and train my successor. He gladly accepted my offer, so now my old company is one of my new clients. I also ran into a friend of a friend at a networking event and mentioned that I'd just gone full time freelance. She publishes a local guidebook I mentioned above and invited me to contribute. Give people examples of the type of work you do and they might know someone needs you.

Don't we all wish we could do this writing thing full time. Good for Susan. I read her blog over at The Urban Muse and look forward to seeing her other work in print. The blogging community is small I find. I almost feel like I know everyone personally. I see an article in a national newspaper by some of my online friends and I think "hey I know that person".
I have also bought two books from my interactions online. It will be neat reading them seeing I "know" the authors, who are bloggers over at Ask Alison (Alison Winn Scotch) and Trish's Dishes (Trish Ryan).
Thanks, Patricia! I met Trish for coffee once and she is every bit as funny and gracious in person as she is in her blog.

The Lake Izvorul Muntelui, also known as Lake Bicaz, is the largest[1] artificial lake on the interior waters of Romania; it was created after the completion of a dam built on the Bistriţa River. The dam is located a few kilometers north of the town of Bicaz.
The dam was built between 1950 and 1960 and is used to generate hydroelectricity at the Bicaz-Stejaru hydro-plant. It has a height of 127 meters, a length of 435 meters, and a maximum width of 119 meters. The lake has a length of 40 kilometers, an area of 33 km² and a maximum volume of 1,250 million m³.
The lake is a popular tourist destination in the region, especially in summertime, when visitors can take the ferryboat from the Bicaz port for a short trip on the lake, enjoying the magnificent view of Mount Ceahlău on the west shore.
In the 1960s and 1970s there was regular ferry service between the Bicaz port and the villages on the lake shore.
At Potoci, a few kilometers north of the town of Bicaz, there is a biological research facility, equipped with a small submersible used for underwater explorations. The facility was visited by the marine biologist Jacques-Yves Cousteau in 1984.

Up on the third floor of the building that houses Twisted Willow restaurant in Port Washington is a new bar with a small-plates menu, the TreeHouse Lounge.

A new bar, Who's on Third, is coming to Old World 3rd St.
Who's on Third, a new bar serving craft beers and pub food, could be open by St. Patrick's Day at 1007 N. Old World 3rd St.
"We want to be a classic American pub," said owner Bobby Wiltgen. He's a veteran of several Milwaukee bars, most recently Trinity - Three Irish Pubs downtown, where he was general manager.
Wiltgen said he wants to cultivate the bar to be a neighborhood spot where customers can watch a game after work or stop in for happy hour. Who's on Third will emphasize beer by the bottle -- it has room for only four tap lines, which will rotate frequently -- and will include brewers such as Three Floyds and Dogfish Head, the Delaware brewer that's recently resumed distributing in Wisconsin. »Read Full Blog Post
Grand opening Wednesday for Brewtown Eatery on the south side
Brewtown Eatery, a restaurant and bar at 5121 W. Howard Ave. that serves pizza, pub food and a Friday fish special alongside craft beers and infused spirits, is marking its grand opening Wednesday.
It opened quietly in mid-January in part of the space that had been Paulo's Pizza.

Cedarburg's Stilt House opens with a broad beer list and small plates menu
Stilt House, the restaurant-bar in Cedarburg that focuses on craft beer and small plates, has been drawing crowds since its opening last week.
It opened on New Year's Eve at W62-N630 Washington Ave., after a complete renovation of the more than 100-year-old building. While the renovation emphasizes historical aspects of the building, with features like a showy tin ceiling, Stilt House displays its beer list on LCD screens around the bar.
Stilt House serves wines by the glass and bottle, 30 in all, but the deeper list is its craft beers. Big brewers are among the 30 taps, but most are craft brewers like Tyranena and Founders, and includes seasonal beers such as Abita's Christmas Ale. It has another 100 beers by the bottle. »Read Full Blog Post

District 14 brewpub planning to open in Bay View
District 14 Brewery & Pub would have 10 tap lines of its own beers when it opens at 2273 S. Howell Ave., possibly as soon as late September or early October.
Matt McCulloch said he plans to offer "new beers all the time." Four of the taps would be constant -- likely a lower-alcohol, or session, IPA, a brown ale, a chocolate stout and a Kölsch. The others would change continually.
The brewpub, south of Cafe Lulu, would have around 50 seats -- six or seven tables and 16 stools at the bar. "I was really concerned about keeping it a cozy space," McCulloch said. »Read Full Blog Post(2)
Walker's Point getting Black Sheep, a lounge-wine bar serving small plates
Black Sheep, a bar that will serve small plates, is due to open in August at 216 S. 2nd St. in Walker's Point.
Work has been going on at the site for the past few months. KPH Construction, which bought the turn-of-the-20th-century building in December, announced the new lounge today.
Besides craft cocktails and beer, Black Sheep will have a self-dispensing system offering 12 wines. Food will focus on what the owner is calling "microbites," or appetizer-sized plates, shareable plates, salads and desserts.
The lower level can be reserved for private parties; the second story already is home to Company B marketing.
Red Dot owners reopen Shepherd's in Tosa with new focus on food
The owners of the bar and restaurant the Red Dot on the east side have reopened Shepherd's bar in Wauwatosa.

Moct nightclub closing after one final bash on Saturday
Moct, the nightclub at 240 E. Pittsburgh Ave. in Walker's Point, is going out with a bang, orchestrating one last big party in its contemporary space on Saturday, before it closes its doors for good.
Nebi Torbica, who owned Moct with his brother, Sini, said they sold the business about a month ago to Guy Lamberg, who will open a restaurant called Prodigal.
July would have marked nine years since the brothers opened Moct (which means bridge in Serbian). Over the years, their club has hosted numerous art exhibits and drawn nationally known DJs; when the Roots played Summerfest in recent years, drummer Questlove would DJ afterward at Moct. »Read Full Blog Post(1)

Tonight, Fink's celebrates its opening with a tap takeover
Fink's Bar, the recently opened tavern that's a sister nightspot to BelAir Cantina, is throwing a grand opening party starting at 4 p.m. Friday.
The bar at 1875 N. Humboldt Ave. (at N. Water St.) will have a craft-beer tap takeover for the bash, pouring Southern Tier Brewing's 2XIPA, Eurotrash Pilz, Krampus imperial helles lager and Choklat imperial stout, and North Coast Brewing's Acme IPA, Pranqster golden ale, Old Rasputin Russian imperial stout on nitro and Old Stock ale.
In addition to classic cocktails, the bar's eight rotating beer taps of craft beers include one it calls the Show Pony, a rare beer or one with a higher alcohol by volume. It and several other pony pours are 9 ounces rather than the regular 14-ounce pour, in part to keep the cost per drink of these pricier beers more reasonable, according to Ian Cliffe, Fink's general manager.
Fink's is regularly open at 4 p.m. Monday to Friday and 2 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. It's partly intended as a place on busy nights where guests can wait until their table is ready across the street at the Cali-Mexican BelAir, or to stop in after dinner.
Von Rothenburg Bier Stube in Germantown pouring beers again
The longtime Von Rothenburg Bier Stube in Germantown, which closed last year, is open again.
It reopened this week under new owner Chaz Hastings, who also owns a Harley-Davidson dealership and others bars including Tally Ho in Erin. It's been spruced up, but its distinctive elements like the stained glass windows are still in place.
Ten German beers are on tap; come warm weather, the outdoor beer garden will be expanded. The bar also is resuming the Stein Club and is planning activities to go along with it. »Read Full Blog Post

Donald Trump lit up the headlines today by repeatedly declining to repudiate the endorsement of David Duke, the former Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan.
He would later backtrack:
Donald Trump: "I disavow" white supremacist David Duke pic.twitter.com/UCaeunp1mm
— Independent Journal (@INJO) February 28, 2016
But compare his reaction today to what Ronald Reagan said when the KKK endorsed him in 1984:
"Those of us in public life can only resent the use of our names by those who seek political recognition for the repugnant doctrines of hate they espouse.
"The politics of racial hatred and religious bigotry practiced by the Klan and others have no place in this country, and are destructive of the values for which America has always stood."
Here's how Marco Rubio responded to Trump's hedging:
.@marcorubio: "We cannot be a party that nominates someone who refuses to condemn white supremacists" pic.twitter.com/Snk9PEOGh7
— Independent Journal (@INJO) February 28, 2016
And here's how Ted Cruz responded:
.@tedcruz: It's "really sad" that @realDonaldTrump won't condemn the KKK https://t.co/EkexN9UZNt
— Independent Journal (@INJO) February 28, 2016
Voters go to the polls on Tuesday in 12 states. It's likely that they'll have Reagan's advice on their minds.
