The Discussion
This video is broken!
I have downloaded High Quality MP4 and WMV. Both are broken. I am unable to view the second half of the video. Can you have a look?
The second half (stream) is indeed broken, for me at least. It frequently skips a couple of seconds of video
@EydenJones: @Tugberek: We have made some changes, the higher quality videos seems to be broken due to the encoding. We will investigate further but untill than the lower quality streams are available.

When it was announced last year that the Transmission Gully motorway was going ahead, I came up with the idea of walking along the route of the new road before the diggers moved in, to experience the landscape of the gully on foot before it was irrevocably altered.
The Transmission Gully motorway forms part of the rather bombastically-named 'Wellington Northern Corridor Road of National Significance'*. When it is built, it will run for 27km between the suburb of Tawa on the outskirts of Wellington, to rejoin the existing SH1 road just north of the coastal settlement of Paekakariki.
When I contacted NZTA at the beginning of the year, they gave me a brief window of permission to walk part of the route, from Paekakariki to Battle Hill Forest Park, before geotechnical assessment work began, and were very helpful in giving me route directions and advice. I'm generally a solitary walker, but they suggested I should walk the route with someone else because of a lack of cellphone coverage, and so I brought my partner along on his first long walk after a knee operation a couple of months before.
We begin our walk with a slow train journey up the coast to Paekakariki, followed by a welcome coffee and a less welcome short walk up the side of SH1. We turn off the road past an ancient-looking wooden farm building. Beyond the farm building, a small black cat is heroically dragging a dead rabbit at least as big as itself. The few houses nearby all look empty, security company signs in the windows.
We sign in for the walk in a shipping container as NZTA has requested, and then set off up a twisting farm track, crossing and recrossing the shallow Te Puka stream, through groves of regenerating bush. Shiny-leaved kohekohe are heavy with fruit. The shade feels welcome after the heat of the sun on the highway.
I've been told to look out for a brick fuel tank structure dating from WWII, but completely forget until we must be long past it. The fuel tank was presumably used by US marines stationed in this area. The marines supposedly offered to build the Transmission Gully Road for nothing (as opposed to the current estimated cost of around $1bn), but their offer was turned down. However, it turns out that this story may just be an urban myth. Whether true or not, building an inland road through Transmission Gully as an alternative to the coastal road has been talked about since at least 1919.
As we climb steadily up towards the Wainui Saddle, the bush gives way to open grass-covered hills rising steeply on either side, dotted with groves of bush. Up above us on our left is a large pine plantation, and behind us, a glimpse of the coast. The fly-through videos on the NZTA website give an idea of the steepness of the valley sides. I presume the banks on either side of the road will need to be reinforced especially if the road is to meet one of its stated objectives – that of providing a safe route out of Wellington in the event of a major earthquake.
The road proposal has attracted a fair bit of controversy, particularly over the costs and benefits, and also about the practicality of the route – the Eye of the Fish blog has been doing an excellent job of stimulating discussion about this and also about the proposals for various 'link roads' through peaceful valleys that have suddenly popped up. The 'new roads equals economic growth' argument makes me feel very tired, but on the other hand, Wellington only has two rather fragile roads connecting it with the rest of the North Island. If the Transmission Gully road means that in the event of a major earthquake, New World lorries carrying supplies of toilet paper and peanut butter to the citizens of Wellington can still get through, that has to be a good thing, surely. But what do I know? There has been quite a bit of comment in particular about the climb up to the Wainui Saddle, and it certainly feels steep on foot.
Transmission Gully is named because of the transmission towers marching up over the saddle and down the other side, but it seems an appropriate name for a road in a way, with its sense of transferring things from one place to another. But, maybe transmission implies something faster than road traffic – more akin to the speed of broadcast signals, or power through the lines. A bullet train maybe. Transmission Gully makes me think of the David Bowie song 'TVC 15' on 'Station to Station', where he sings 'transition, transmission, transition, transmission'. It's about transmission in the sense of a TV rather than a journey, but the idea of transition fits well with the notion of a road – and a landscape too, that is in transition or will be soon. But Station to Station…I'm still thinking a bullet train would be better. Tawa to Paekakariki in 6 minutes, as opposed to the 31 minutes the journey currently takes.
As we near the top of the saddle, the pine plantations give way to dense native bush studded with tree ferns and the odd podocarp rising above the canopy. At this point, the road will cut through the very edge of the Akatawara Forest. The planned route of the road has been amended to preserve this area of bush and has also been changed to reduce its impacts on the streams we are following, although several kilometres of streams will need to be realigned all the same. The road will require no less than 112 stream crossings along its length.
We have startled a small herd of cattle on a side track on the other side of the stream. Several cows with calves, accompanied by a bull, run onto the main track and trot ahead of us, the stragglers at the back occasionally stopping to look back at us before moving smartly on. We follow them at a distance, trying to avoid the newly spattered cowshit on the track. At the saddle, the cows reach a gate blocking their way and veer off along another track.
We stop for lunch on the other side of the gate, enjoying the feeling of being up high. It occurs to me that it's not often that we walk for any distance in open farmland like this, which is odd really given that most of the walking I used to do in the UK was through farmland of one kind or another. Here, most of our non-urban walks are through bush. We've both been struck by how the walk so far has reminded us of walking in theYorkshire or Derbyshire Dales, back in the UK.
We continue on downhill, following the line of transmission towers. Any buzzing from the lines is drowned out by the chirping of the cicadas. We're following the Horokiwi stream now, studded with clumps of bright green watercress. I pick some and eat it – perfectly peppery and crisp. The valley descends much more gently on this side, gradually opening out. There are clumps of toitoi on the hill slopes above us and there are birds everywhere. Pukekos stalk along the margins of the pine plantations, every now and then taking flight, which surprises me because I didn't know they could fly. Little flocks of brown birds peck on the track, flying off before we get close enough to identify them, while swallows swoop acros the valley. We keep seeing groups of spur-winged plover with their repetitive calls, shrill and mournful.
I didn't expect to see so many birds, and the walk so far has been much more attractive than I expected. I'd read a summary of the environmental assessment for the road which describes the landscape, rather dismissively, as 'highly modified by human activity' and I was expecting scrubby gorse-covered hillsides and dusty fields, pocked with hoof-prints. I do think that in New Zealand, 'modified' as opposed to pristine, landscapes tend not to be valued, unlike in Europe where most landscapes have been modified by centuries, if not millenia of human activity. I think again of the very highly-valued Yorkshire Dales, cleared of trees as far back as the Bronze Age.
It's odd too to think that the next time we see this valley, it will probably be behind the wheel of a car, although it will be several years before the road is complete. There are apparently plans for a cycle and walking route along the streams but I'm not sure I'd want to walk close by such a busy road. Hopefully though, the route will at least provide a safer cycle route in and out of Wellington than currently exists.
We climb a deer fence and walk through long golden meadow grass, watched from a distance by a large herd of deer, who take off, leaping away from us. Up above us, on the crest of a hill, is a digger, the first sign of human life since we turned off SH1. In the next paddock we see the first signs of works for the new road, posts marking out a new gravelled track. We stop for a snack and are joined by the driver of the digger, who has jumped into his ute and driven down the hill to check we aren't poaching his deer. Once he is satisfied that we are not, we have a long chat. He agrees that the valley is beautiful, but is philosophical about the road. It's progress, he says, the road is needed and the valley is an obvious place to put it.
We climb another deer fence, and then realise we are in Battle Hill Forest Park, sooner than we expected, but maybe not too soon, because as the valley opens out we notice that the sky to the south is dark with the rain that wasn't forecast until evening. Transmission Gully continues out through the other side of the park, but I only have permission to walk it as far as here and so we turn away from the gully and out to the Paekakariki Hill Road where the rain suddenly arrives.
Thanks to NZTA for giving me permssion to walk the route.

A Year of Failure Ends in Success
Making a major change in your organizations AMS system can be difficult, especially during a down economy. One small staff association tried it and shares its lessons.
2009 was a crummy year for me. As convenient as it might be to blame it on the global economy or general malaise or a misalignment of the Zodiac, I attribute this to a single cause: We had to create a new website. Oh, and at the same time we thought, "Wouldn't it be nice if we upgraded our AMS?"
It sounds so good on paper, doesn't it? One of those neat, achievable, measurable, time-sensitive goals we love to include in our strategic plans. The reality is that projects like this can go in all sorts of unanticipated (and strange) directions and often do. They are like home-renovation projects. You start off replacing a leaky faucet in the bathroom and end up putting on a new roof. And the worst part of that is that you haven't got the foggiest notion where things went so horribly wrong.
Projects like this are like home-renovation projects. You start off replacing a leaky faucet in the bathroom and end up putting on a new roof.
These sorts of things ought to be linear. There should be a finite number of milestones, goals, and activities that contribute to the achievement of the overall plan. However, plans can be flawed and can lead to a result that does not satisfy unwritten context around a stated goal. So without naming any names or expressing any animosity, I would like to tell you what we learned in this process.
1. Make sure you understand what your members want. I know this is the most fundamental question of all, but you might be surprised to know how easy it is to assume you understand certain things without actually clarifying them. Before you even begin the process of searching for a vendor, you need to be able to provide a written scope of work for the project that details what the end result is going to look like.
Also, while you may think it is obvious what your members expect, it isn't. Yes, you have talked to them at meetings and other events, but that's not enough. For example, the expectations of our executive committee were different than ours. They wanted to have a website that kept pace with the commercial, private-sector websites that their companies had. We never measured ourselves against the private sector.
Now I understand that you ought to take whatever time is necessary to gain buy-in on the final product. Otherwise, you get to do it all over again like we did. And that proves to be expensive and time consuming and causes a very large amount of teeth gnashing.
2. Realize failure is a natural consequence of experimentation and innovation. Of course, this axiom is only true if you fail part of the time; if you fail all of the time, something else is going wrong. Yep, I've heard the same motivational anecdote you have about Lou Gehrig's batting average. I only understood the pain of that reality when I had to write off multiple thousands of dollars of association money invested in (pause for dramatic music) the project.

My president and other members of my board are entrepreneurs, and they made it clear that they expect some experiments to end in failure. Not being an entrepreneur myself, I guess that lesson got by me; I now understand it better than I ever wanted to. I think the trick, at least for me, is trying to balance the virtue of perseverance against the necessity of understanding a failed strategy when you are experiencing one. (It is a lot easier to see someone else's failed strategy than to extricate yourself from your own.) For me, the epiphany came in August when I was at the ASAE & The Center Annual Meeting & Expo in Toronto. By spending a lot of time on the tradeshow floor, I started to understand the alternatives that would prove better.
3. Reflecting on failure and applying the lessons can lead to an even greater success. This was certainly true for us. Again, no names, but we did end up with a product that took us in a whole new direction, including the creation of a Web 2.0 portal for our members that moved us away from listservers and static resource listings to dynamic group formation, member-contributed resources, and member matching. It was a direction we did not intend to pursue initially but one that is likely to lead to much higher member satisfaction than we were likely to have achieved with our previous strategy.

Former Haryana chief minister and INLD chief Om Prakash Chautala was hospitalized at Medanta hospital in Gurgaon after he complained of chest discomfort on Thursday.
The INLD chief was granted three weeks bail by the Delhi High court on June 3 following the demise of his younger brother, Pratap Chautala. The former CM is a heart patient and had undergone a pacemaker implant procedure at Medanta last year.
When asked, his younger son Abhay Singh, said that his father was in a state of mourning at their native village in Sirsa for over a week. "He was experiencing heaviness in chest for the past couple of days. Being a heart patient, it was prudent to shift him for a proper check up at Medanta," Abhay Singh said.
INLD sources said the former chief minister was not allowed by Tihar jail authorities to go to Medanta for a follow up review of the pacemaker implant. Instead, he was sent to Ram Manohar Lohia hospital by the jail authorities.

Buying and selling cars is easy - any idiot can happily turn cars over one after the other. But making money, or not losing it -- that's the rub.
Like many other impatient Kiwi bloke/blokettes, at one point I had elevated dropping loads of cash on ill-conceived automotive trading to an art-form.
• Read more The best used car sales pitch ever?
Buying a car based on emotion doesn't work. If that's how you're going to approach it, you're likely to cop a financial beating. You're not going to fork over a pile of money for a classic or muscle car, for instance, without the old heartstrings playing a fairly major part.
When it comes to selling cars, it's all about emotion - and this week a fantastic used car ad caught our attention. An Aussie chap, admittedly with access to some pretty cool digital trickery and a big background in marketing and advertising, wanted to get rid of his lousy Holden Barina.
His awesome ad - you can see it here at bit.ly/Ud0jIX - used the full kitbag of car ad cleverness. By the end of it, you'd almost think about pulling out the mobile and hitting his number.
The lingering shots from flattering angles, the good-looking bloke with the expensive sunnies, the revving engine and the spinning (woefully unbalanced) wheel ... pretty convincing stuff.
It made the Barina a hero, something you'd want to drive - and made the finely-tuned and delicately-worded car classifieds seem positively archaic. 'One lady owner, never raced, rallied or rolled' used to get attention. Now, without something that looks as it it's been spat out of a New York ad agency at a cost of millions, it's easy to fade into the background. Trying to get rid of an Anglebox with banana skins disguising the dodgy diff is not as easy as it once was.

Absolutely the best location. Within walking distance of the most important sites and best restaurants in Savannah! This place is very comfortable and equipped with everything you could possibly need for your stay! We'd rent it again in a heartbeat!
I had the absolute pleasure of spending a week in this beautiful apartment for a fun filled girls getaway. We had everything we could have possibly needed to enjoy our time there. The apartment was spotlessly clean when we arrived! The location is perfect. Oh I already miss sitting in the courtyard smelling the chicken cooking next door at Mrs Wilkes! Stepping out and taking a walk down beautiful Jones Street was such a joy! I loved everything about it and I definitely will stay here when I go back to Savannah!!
This property was just as it was pictured. It was clean, organized, and it had everything we needed for our stay. The location was centrally located, and easy to walk to all locations in historic district. I would highly recommend this to others. We had 6 guests, and it was perfect. I'm not sure where the other 2 guests would sleep if we had 8, as it states. We really loved our stay in this beautiful VRBO.
We stayed in Savannah for a long weekend while I was attending a medical conference at the Hilton Savannah De Soto. I didn't want to stay at the hotel, and I am so glad I found this place! There was plenty of room for my husband and I, our two boys, and my sister and brother-in-law. The living areas are quite spacious and the historic home has so much charm! It is located on a gorgeous tree lined street in the historic district, and was walking distance to restaurants and shops. We took the boys to Forsyth Park and the Savannah Children's Museum (amazing!). We would definitely recommend this condo to friends and family, and would stay here again anytime we come back to Savannah!
The only downside was that it was confusing to figure out where to park, but that is a simple fix in the description/wording that is sent out by the realty company.
My friend and I went to attend some of the Savannah Film Festival and chose this as opposed to a hotel. This suite was fantastic - very close to everything and on "the most beautiful street in Savannah's Historic District." It is right next door to Mrs. Wilke's BoardingHhouse restaurant - a must! We enjoyed each having our own room and bath, as well as a large fully equipped kitchen to share for breakfast and late night snacks. The living room is charming as well. Being able to just walk out the door and meander through Savannah was a real treat. Everything in the suite is wonderful except the water pressure in the showers. Guess in an old home like this it is as good as it gets. Would stay there again!
I first rented this apartment for a girls weekend in 2012. I have rented this apartment at least once a year since that first visit, twice a year if I can make the calendar work. The generous living space, the fantastic courtyard/outdoor space (including garage space if you need it) and the absolutley unbeatable location makes it easy to go back to. The Luxury Living team is, without a doubt, landlords extraordinaire. The apartment is meticulously clean and any maintenance issues (no matter how small) are done quickly. The attention to detail in the apartment adds to the Savannah experience, the furnishings are beautiful and comfortable. Since 2012 I have seen the kitchen updated to granite & stainless, a complete refresh of the courtyard, new drapes and extra little touches. The updates never stop, on this trip the house has been freshly painted, the entry updated and entire sunroom has been redone, new floors & new furniture.
Yes, two of the bedrooms are on the smaller size, but comfortable and well done. We comfortably stayed with 5 in the house for a week, and would do so again. If you're going to visit this beautiful city, you may as well stay in a beautiful property!

Wasps on Tuesday confirmed they had lost James Haskell and Tom Palmer to Stade Francais next season, while Riki Flutey will join Brive in the summer. The triple transfer raid is the clearest sign yet that the balance of power in northern-hemisphere rugby has shifted, with English clubs now unable to compete with their French rivals.
"As a business, we would like to get fair recompense for producing international players," said McGeechan.
"I think you need that commitment both ways. Clubs should be producing players for England - and if you do that then you get a good structure under the international programme.
"The problem is, at the moment there is a lot of money elsewhere - and you can't do anything about it. The French clubs have a lot of money, and we simply can't compete - salary cap or no salary cap. It is pretty mind-boggling, some of the numbers."
French clubs are not bound by a salary cap, while the current strength of the euro has made the Top 14 an even more attractive option. Jonny Wilkinson has been linked with a move to promotion candidates Racing Metro Paris.
The Rugby Football Union's £4.6million payments are split among all the Premiership clubs - a process known as revenue smoothing - and Wasps believe that costs them £750,000 a year.

I enjoyed their fried pepperoni burger and fries. My friends enjoyed their Italian chicken salads. Good service. FOUR CLAWS UP!!!! Thanks for reading my review. 'Joe the Bear' Goria
Two waiters and one runner were handling the entire restaurant on a VERY busy night. They did a fairly good job, but it was a little too frantic to really enjoy the evening. An Italian restaurant with no antipasto? Not good. Pizza served in a dish so olive oil ran into the bottom making the center soggy. Topping pretty good!
I ordered the Lasagna for $13.99. It was a little bit above average and reasonably priced. My wife had the Lemon Chicken for $15.99, which was also a little bit above average and slightly over priced. The bread and olive oil served when we were seated was significantly below average. Not a good way to start the meal. The bread... More

New allegations that such banks pressured research analysts to give good recommendations on stocks in order to curry favour with companies and gain fee-based business have revived conflict-of-interest charges that first surfaced after the dotcom flame-out.
Congressional and regulatory investigators have focused on Wall Street analysts who recommended internet stocks even as the bottom fell out of the market. In New York this week, the State Attorney General accused Merrill Lynch's investment banking arm of exerting undue influence in determining research ratings.
Attorney General Eliot Spritzer asked a judge to force Merrill Lynch, America's largest retail broker, to disclose new information about interactions between the firm's investment banking and stock research divisions.
Spritzer's investigation includes other big-name firms in a broad probe of conflicts of interest. Merrill Lynch denies any wrongdoing.
Across the country in Houston, Wall Street's credibility suffered another blow when plaintiffs in the Enron suit broadened their case to include investment banks they accuse of playing a central role in the energy firm's downfall.
Most major Wall Street firms have taken steps to restore credibility and clean up possible conflicts of interest, including barring analysts from holding shares in the companies they cover.
However, some experts reckon the increasing blows to the US financial centre's reputation may require tougher countermeasures, even a formal separation of fee-based and advisory units.

Migration Anderson Valley Pinot Noir (375ML half-bottle) 2008
Pinot Noir from North Coast, California
Winemaker Notes
The 2008 growing season yielded a very complex and complete expression of Migration, with a rich, seamless entry, well-integrated tannins and a harmonious balance between fruit, texture and spice. The nose displays bright cherry, strawberry compote, violet and rhubarb layers, alongside more exotic elements of Asian spice, hickory, earth and roasted meats. These aromatics are echoed on the palate, and further supported by juicy acidity and notes of strawberry, plum, toffee, pie crust and a hint of white pepper.
MigrationView all wine
Since crafting its premiere vintage of Anderson Valley Pinot Noir in 2001, Duckhorn Wine Company's Migration has earned acclaim for a refined and compelling style of winemaking that seamlessly balances vibrancy and finesse.
Embodying the lush elegance of cool-climate California winegrowing, Migration's exploration of the great Burgundian varietals began in Anderson Valley where Duckhorn Wine Company cultivates four estate Pinot Noir vineyards, spanning 207 vine acres. Shaped by the valley's cool nights, fog-shrouded mornings and mild,... View More

It is well known in business that the autocratic manager is no longer the best model.
The consultative style of management is perceived as best practice, where the leader brings the team's strengths together like an orchestra conductor.
This change of thinking has been grist to the mill for the well-established New Zealand behavioural model, TetraMap, a cross-cultural training tool for better behaviour and performance, which also reduces conflict and inspires leadership in the workplace.
TetraMap uses the elements of nature - earth, air, water and fire - as a metaphor to describe people and their preferences.
"The TetraMap behavioural model is about understanding learning styles, understanding that we are all very different, and respecting that in the workplace," says Yoshimi Brett.
Jon and Yoshimi Brett are co-owners of training company TetraMap International, a publisher and supplier of training resources for people and organisational development.
The Bretts originally set up the company Learnology in 1995, then introduced the brand TetraMap in 2000. In 2003, Learnology changed its name to TetraMap International.
Today, the TetraMap workbooks and leader-guides are available in more than seven languages. The New Zealand-based business has 11 master facilitators around the world, two of whom are licensees.
Most of the TetraMap master facilitators and certified facilitators are in the area of organisational change and leadership coaching.
Over the years the company founders have helped clients such as Telecom, the Ministry of Education and Te Papa through some big change.
More recently Estee Lauder Companies New Zealand has integrated TetraMap into the company as a behavioural model through HR consultant and TetraMap master facilitator, Jan Alley.
TetraMap gives people the confidence about the other people they are working with, says Jon.
"We know we've done a good job when we have a two-day workshop and the leader says, 'I did not realise that I had such a talented group of people working with me'."
Managers can get so immersed in the stress of getting things done it is easy to lose sight of the humanity of the business, he says.
Internationally, TetraMap is being used in Asia, the UK, Europe, USA, Australia and Mexico, with previous clients including American Airlines, Carphone Warehouse, BSkyB and the Singapore Armed Forces.
Ralph Lauren in New York and Atos Origin in the UK are now incorporating it into their training programmes.
TetraMap is also set to become part of the Inspiring High Performance programme run by professional services consultancy, Arcadia Consulting, for 8500 Deutsche Bank executives around the world.
"From New Zealand we have provided a tool that other people are able to take globally," says Yoshimi.
TetraMap International, based in Howick, with one full-time employee and a contractor as well as the Bretts, has a turnover of around $500,000 which comes largely from selling workbooks.
"We don't want to create an empire, we want to create a network of individual business people who have similar passions," Yoshimi says.
"It's about working together interdependently, internationally."

What type of work should I do before landing my "dream job?"
Depending on the field you are in, a job in a certain area may be a stepping stone to future employment. For example, if your career goal is to manage a retail store, you may find that taking a job as a clerk in that store will lead you to the management track, especially if you do a very good job with the less responsible position. "Managers love to promote from within because the employee is already a known quantity," says Andrea Doven, a human resources expert. Depending on the field in which you work, even mopping the floor can open doors to new opportunities.
One of the key things about this strategy, however, is that you must be willing to do a superior job at the small position before moving on to the larger position. When you show your employer that you are willing to do a good job with small things, he or she is much more likely to allow you more responsibility at a higher-paying job.

Claire Preece has just graduated in a BSc equestrian psychology at Glyndwr University
After doing a two year foundation degree in equine science at Harper Adams University College, I decided to top it up to equestrian psychology. Animal welfare and equine behaviour have always been areas of interest for me.
The assignments on the course are quite broad and it's not just about psychology – I looked at bute (anti-inflammatory painkiller for horses) and went into the physiological aspects of that. For my dissertation I looked at gastric ulcers and the difference between when a horse eats from a hay net and the floor. You do look at behaviour, but there's a lot of scientific principles of it. I looked at the central nervous system as well.
Most of the time when I tell people what I'm studying, they ask "What's that?" But when I explain it to them they're quite intrigued. It's not a conventional degree so it probably makes your CV stand out. Results depending, I'm going on to do a master's in veterinary pharmacy. I've also applied for jobs in that area. The course has been hard work but I've really enjoyed it.
Annabelle Yardley has just finished a BSc in marketing at Aston University
I decided to do a marketing degree after speaking with a careers adviser in sixth form who suggested it when I told her what courses I was doing and my interests. I'd heard really positive reviews from people who'd been to Aston.
What really stands out about the course is the placement year, during which I did market research at the university. It was probably one of the most valuable years of my life: it taught me so much about organisation and how to behave in a working environment. It was really character building, and brilliant to have on my CV as well, because employers really look for that experience.
The first year is quite broad, so you learn about all areas of business. You can then decide what pathway you want to take. I think it's good to study a more specific degree as it shows you've got specialist knowledge in that area.
I've been accepted onto the BACS marketing graduate scheme. I was going to start in September but it's actually going to be earlier now as they're sending me on a unique trip to Cape Town to help with advertising. I'm really excited about it.
Harry Darkins has just graduated from BA oriental studies (Arabic with subsidiary modern Hebrew) from Oxford University
Languages had always been my best subject at school but I felt like I wanted a new challenge, and was particularly drawn to Arabic. I began a degree in Arabic and French, but after my year abroad in Egypt I dropped French and decided to pick up modern Hebrew from scratch. Hebrew's relation to Arabic not only made it more appealing to me, but also fitted in with my interest in the Arab-Israeli conflict.
The highlight of my course would have to be the second year, which was spent studying Arabic in Cairo. This just happened to coincide with the Egyptian revolution, which my peers and I saw first-hand!
I'm about to pursue an MA in broadcast journalism at City University, with a view to gaining a job in radio or television news. In my career I definitely hope to use the language skills I have acquired throughout my course, as well as the set of transferable skills it has given me. The workload at Oxford was pretty demanding and there always seemed to be limited time to do it in, but I think this has taught me how to cope better under pressure.
Daniela Hackett is studying a BA in viking studies at Nottingham University
I stumbled upon viking studies when my mum and I were leafing through the Nottingham prospectus. We both had a good laugh for five minutes, but then agreed it sounded like exactly what I'm interested in: anything old, and the subjects English, history and archaeology. I remember my form tutor giving me a funny look when I first mentioned viking studies, but when I explained what it was she agreed that it really suited me.
I'm really enjoying the course and never get bored! One day I might be translating an Anglo-Saxon poem for the Old English, the next I might be writing an essay about the development of towns in medieval Britain or analysing animal remains from archaeological sites. But the highlight so far is last semester, which I spent studying abroad in Oslo. I had a brilliant time in a different culture, learning a new language and meeting people from all over the world.
People's faces when they hear what I study are amazing - I wish that I could record them all. On campus, viking studies students are like a rumour. Lots of people hear of the course, but not many meet us because there are so few of us.
Max Pears is just about to enter his final year of a BA in computer games design
As a child I was fascinated by how much you could do with a game and how it felt to be a key part of a story, not just feeling as if you are reading or watching one. I decided to study at Teesside University because it has an outstanding reputation for computer games and animation courses, as well as excellent links with industry.
It has been a great experience. My team was recently the first in the history of the university to make it through to the Dare to be Digital (a video games development competition for students) final. While on placement, I worked on "Truck License 2" which reached number 66 in Android's "Top New Free App" chart. My overall greatest experience is the fact that I now know I have the skills and knowledge to make great games.
I see a lot of job prospects coming from it right now with the way that the industry is changing. Teesside University has a lot of strong connections in the industry and I know this can only benefit me when I graduate.
People are generally either amazed or confused when I tell them about my course. I tell my grandparents' friends and they have no idea what it is I do. Other people my age love it and when I start telling them what I have worked on, their faces light up as people find it so cool.

Dougie Lampkin is a trials bike legend. He is renowned throughout the world as the upstart who showed the big boys how it was done. Born into a family already steeped in motorbike history – his father Martin was the first ever trials world champion in 1975 – Dougie rode into the limelight in the late 1980s astride a trials bike that looked way too big for him on a BBC TV series in the UK called Junior Kickstart. Before long, Dougie had taken trials biking to a new level, both in terms of skill and public interest.
Dougie's first major victory came at the European championships in 1993 and he has since accumulated a trophy cabinet most international sportspeople would struggle to match. In 2003, Dougie won his 12th individual world trials title – seven coming outside and five indoors.
Dougie then turned his hand to the discipline of Enduro and has competed in some of the sport's toughest events, including the Red Bull Hare Scramble and Red Bull Romaniacs. His success is further testament to just how rounded and skilled a rider Dougie is and why he's held in such high regard.
Never one to turn down a unique challenge, Dougie added the record of continuously wheelie-ing the entire 37-mile (70km) Isle of Man TT course on September 25, 2016, in front of an audience watching live on Red Bull TV.Read more

Numbers 21:5
And the people spoke against God and against Moses: "Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no food and no water, and our soul loathes this worthless bread." 6 So the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and many of the people of Israel died.
7 Therefore the people came to Moses, and said, "We have sinned, for we have spoken against the LORD and against you; pray to the LORD that He take away the serpents from us." So Moses prayed for the people.
8 Then the LORD said to Moses, "Make a fiery serpent, and set it on a pole; and it shall be that everyone who is bitten, when he looks at it, shall live." 9 So Moses made a bronze serpent, and put it on a pole; and so it was, if a serpent had bitten anyone, when he looked at the bronze serpent, he lived."
Truly the ancient Scriptures of the Old Testament offer an amazing testimony towards Orthodox Christianity. This particular event in the history of the ancient Hebrews bears witness to the coming of Christ as our Great High Priest. Lets examine this a little deeper.
The people spoke against God and against Moses and committed a great sin, which resulted in the LORD sending serpents among the people to bite them. This brings to mind in reminiscience the 'bite' of that serpent of old, Satan, the great deceiver, whose venemous 'bite' lead to the fall of Adam and Eve from paradise. Again now in the wilderness, the people spoke against God committing great sin in doing so, which lead to them suffering again from the bite of the serpent, this time leading to physical as well as spiritual death.
Although many of the people died, a number repented and had enough wisdom to realise their poison from the bite of the serpent was a direct result of the blasphemous words spoken against God and His prophet Moses, so in repentance they approached Moses looking for mercy. Note the people did not run off to the hills to seek forgiveness from God by themselves (as modern so called Christian sects would have us do because they believe we don't need mediators), but they approached Moses whom God had appointed over the people, just as we approach the priests of Christ appointed by God through His Church when we seek forgiveness from sin today.
Then God commanded Moses to make an IMAGE of a serpent and set it upon a pole that all those bitten who look upon it shall live. It is interesting to note that GOD COMMANDED MOSES TO MAKE AN IMAGE! The same God who commanded the people not to make false idols to worship commands Moses to make an image of a bronze serpent. There is an interesting disctinction here. An idol is the image of a false god that is worshipped by people, who call the image god. Yet as God commanded the image of cherubs to be placed on the ark of the covenant, so too He ordered Moses to make an image.
In the Orthodox tradition we use icons or images in our worship. Some icons are of the Lord Jesus Christ. We venerate them as holy because of what they signify. They lift our mind and hearts towards the One true living God of Israel, the Holy Trinity whom we worship and glorify. We do not worship the images themselves, just as the ancient Hebrews did not worship the bronze serpent Moses lifted up before them, but yet by looking on the serpent hanging on the pole the people received healing. (NB The picture shown of HH Mar Ignatius Zakka I Patriarch of Antioch and the Syrian Orthodox Church clearly shows the form of a serpent hung on a pole below the cross, a clear modern link to the sign of the crucifixion of Christ pointed to in the wilderness when Moses held aloft the staff with the bronze serpent. The priesthood of the New Testament era in the Orthodox Church is clearly then not disjointed from the ancient faith of the Hebrews as its rightful successor through Christ our Lord – Furthermore, like the ancient Hebrews we too use signs and symbols in our Divinely ordained faith without forsaking the purity of our Monotheism as the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, the exact image of the One Triune God {Hebrews 1:3}.)
There is another who was hung on a tree, and as the bronze serpent is a symbol of sin and its punishment so too the Holy Cross of Christ Our Blessed Lord is a sign of healing and life; for truly He bore the weight of the sins of the world for those who would seek Him in repentance to receive healing and the cling to the hope of following Him to the promised land of paradise, as the Hebrews of the desert hoped for the promised land…

Jenn, I'm so glad you posted these... I'm going to give them a try. I actually love red velvet - simply because I'm not much of chocolate fan. It's got to be the right mood and the right chocolate - and red velvet does that for me if it's a good cake. I've yet to find a super one. I know you love to bake as much as I do, so I'll give it a whirl.ReplyDelete
Red velvet is my favorite cake/cupcake! Thanks for hosting!

The Wake After DeathMature
I opened my eyes and blinked. my thoughts and memories swam and my head spun. I became aware of the feeling of cold metal underneath me and I frowned a little trying to stop the chaos running around in my head. I stopped thinking and my frowned deepened. where the HELL am I? I sat up and looked around me.
it was dark, but there was a little yellowish light coming from a small light sitting beside me on the ground. I set my feet on the ground experimentally and got up. I was still dressed. I thought back to the hospital.
I gasped.
I spun around wildly looking for him. I panicked and flung myself onto the floor , right up next to the wall. that when I realized that this room wasn't rectangular. it was a cylinder. this answered NONE of my questions, but gave me more. so there I sat, on the floor, in the middle of somewhere, in a room in the middle of nowhere.
I don't know how long I sat there for. hours, minutes. but I went through the events of the night at the hospital. I remembered most of it.
I ran my hands up my neck casually.
I stopped when I left several bumps. I ran my hands over the entire surface of my neck. they weren't bumps, they were holes. like chunks of my skin were missing. they had healed some what, although it hurt to touch them. this further confused me; htese chunks were missing out of my jugular. I should be dead, like I was supposed to be.
what had he done to me?
a shiver ran down my spine. could voices. I didn't know where they were coming from. then I noticed the door. it was hard to see, in the dark. the voices grew louder. more distinct. I started panicking. my eyes searched the room for something, anything. finally my eyes settles on the table. the metal table I'd woken up on. I ran toward it and tossed myself onto it, lying down and closing my eyes. I struggled to even out my breathing. the voices were at the door. I heard a key turn in the lock and the hinges scrape open.
"... strictly prohibited to not bring back any more! I told him this, might as well have talked to a bricking fucking wall" the first voice was male and deep, had the tone of a pissed off father in law. his shoes made very little sound as he walked over to where I laid.
"has she woken up yet?" the first voice asked
"not yet, I don't think" the second voice. also male. a little higher, more boyish.
I stirred lightly, sick of "sleeping". I wanted answers
"ah, right on time." the first voice muttereed under his breath. I opened my eyes and blinked.
"who the hell are you ?" I asked. I didn't bother with pleasantries or fake half-asleep talk, I wanted answers, and I wanted them now.
"we could ask you the same."
"I asked first."
he seemed to sigh inwardly.
"very well. I'm Klarc. this is Bryce." I looked at the other one. he glowered at me. I gave him a look much the same.
"where am I?"
"I can't tell you."
"can't tell you that either. what's your name?"
"I'm Emma." I said and sat up, as far away from them while still sitting on the table. Klarc looked at me and smiled darkly.
" are you now? well Emma. your release and safety all depends on your co-operation" he said it as smoothly as he could, but it felt like oil down my spine. he made me sick.
"co-operation with what?" I asked warily. he was vile. oily black hair slicked back and pale grey skin, like Asher. the boys complection was the same. grey.
" you'll find out" he said ominously, and then turned on his heels.
and with that they left me there. I got one of my million questions answered.
I stayed in that cell undisturbed for three days. I was starving.
that's when the change began.
it started with a feeling much like hunger, but it was underneath the hunger that gnawed at me incessantly. it was slow, burning.
in four hours I was screaming.
in six I was weeping
iin eight hours I'd passed out on the floor infront of the door. three of my nails were stuck in the metal of the door.
when I woke back up I was on the table again.
but I was seeing through new eyes.....

Well, It's quite bittersweet for me...I started school again. But hey! It's my last semester of nursing school if all goes as planned. Pray for me, y'all! I'm almost to the finish line. Just gotta finish nursing school off strong. Follow me on snapchat to keep up with me on the daily. I won't be posting as much because you know how busy I get with school.
Yet another delicious package from MacarOn Café. They sent me a variety of different flavors. I really liked the peanut butter & jelly one. I have never seen anyone do a PB&J macaroon before, so I thought that was really cute! Of course, I loved every flavor in the box. Thank you, MacarOn Café once again!

Chelsea got back to winning ways on Saturday after two goals in six second-half minutes ensured the Blues beat Hull City 2-0 at the KCOM Stadium.
After losing their last two games to Liverpool and Arsenal, Blues boss Antonio Conte made several tactical changes to his starting line-up which, for the first 45 minutes in Hull, failed to produce a single shot on target.
But as the home side's defence began to tire early in the second half, Willian and Diego Costa scored within six minutes to reverse the recent run of defeats and secure a 2-0 victory for the west Londoners.
Despite the end result, it was in fact Mike Phelan's side who started the clash the better of the two teams - with Robert Snodgrass forcing Thibaut Courtois into an early save with his powerful free kick within three minutes.
The set piece had been awarded for David Luiz's foul on Dieumerci Mbokani, and it wasn't long before the Brazilian suffered another nervy moment when he lost the Hull forward as the ball was sent over the Chelsea defence only for Courtois to come out and claim it.
Conte continued to watch on as his side upped the tempo and began stretching Hull's defence with Victor Moses doing well on the left flank.
Indeed, the Chelsea winger had a shout for a penalty after being tripped up in the area by Adama Diomande while Hull saw their shout for Marcos Alonso's handball in the box turned down too.
Chelsea couldn't carve out a shot on target before the break - the first time they had failed to do so in successive games since 2012 - but the Blues did return with a renewed sense of purpose and nearly opened the scoring when Costa fired the ball onto the post which rebounded into the path of N'Golo Kante, who could only fire high.
The Frenchman's blushes were spared soon after, however, when Costa teed up Willian in the 61st minute who subsequently curled in a fabulous effort into the top corner.
Costa then made it 2-0 with a powerful effort into the same corner six minutes later and, with Hull trailing by two goals, Chelsea dominated possession before seeing out the game and earning a 2-0 victory at the KCOM Stadium.Reuse content
