Aer Lingus Group plc
Trading update
Dublin & London, 12 June 2014: Aer Lingus Group plc ("Aer Lingus") today issues a trading update in respect of its full year 2014 operating outlook.
On 20 May 2014, Aer Lingus reported that it had experienced positive trading in April with short haul, long haul and retail all performing strongly in the month. This performance enabled Aer Lingus to maintain its guidance that 2014 operating profits would be in line with the prior year, despite the adverse effect of the strike called by the Impact trade union for the June bank holiday weekend.
Aer Lingus welcomes the indication given last night by Impact, following an intervention by the Labour Court yesterday, to defer the further two days of strike action that had been called for 16 and 18 June 2014. This deferral is to allow consideration of an interim recommendation to be issued by the Labour Court today.
However, the threat of this strike has caused significant damage to Aer Lingus' trading and forward bookings for several months into the future. This has been particularly noticeable in recent days following increased media coverage and commentary. In this context, and assuming that no further strikes are threatened, Aer Lingus now expects that its 2014 operating profits (before net exceptional items) will be 10% to 20% lower than last year. The outcome will depend in part on the speed with which we can win back customer confidence.
Aer Lingus continues to engage with Impact under the auspices of the Labour Court to resolve this matter and further announcements will be made as appropriate.

MIAMI BEACH (Feb. 24)
The largest sum ever given to launch a nationwide campaign of the United Jewish Appeal was contributed here today as gifts totalling $11,341,000 poured in at the closing session of the U.J.A. national inaugural conference to formally open the Appeal's 14th annual drive for aid to Israel, distressed Jews overseas and refugees entering the United States.
This record contribution, which keynoted the opening of U.J.A. activity in 5,000 communities throughout the country, exceeded by $1,191,000 the sum given here one year ago when $10,150,000 was contributed at a similar launching of a U.J.A. campaign.
Edward M.M. Warburg, general chairman of the U.J.A., who presided at the session attended by more than 500 Jewish leaders from communities in 41 states, hailed establishment of this new record in individual and corporate giving as "another great demonstration by American Jews of their utmost concern for human life and human liberty."
In a concerted move to help the U.J.A. repeat and exceed its $150,000,000 achievement of four years ago, 18 major cities have voted re-adoption of their 1948 local goals to bring to more than $67,000,000 the goals set in the first six weeks of the year. Community action in adopting $67,000,000 in local goals approaches nearly one-half the U.J.A.'s $151,500,000 goal.
Israel Premier David Ben Gurion, in a cable to the conference, declared that Israel "is beset by grave and dangerous difficulties which the young state cannot master without the continuous and selfless cooperation of Jewish men and women the world over." He termed the united Jewish Appeal "that noble instrumentality" whose "healthy, constructive help" has been felt throughout Israel.
Abba Eban, in a comprehensive statement of Israel's economic and political position, told the conference that the United Jewish Appeal, which was the first agency in the field to assist Israel in its task of nation-building has "lost nothing of its central and abiding importance."
Dr. Joseph J. Schwartz, executive vice-chairman of the U.J.A., termed the $11,341,000 contributed today as "a remarkable beginning in this year's drive of the U.J.A. to raise $151,500,000 and there by assure victory for Israel as she fights her second war of independence–this time for economic independence." Dr. Schwartz urged American Jews to follow this afternoon's action "with the kind of generosity that can help the U.J.A. achieve by June 30 two-thirds or $100,000,000 of its $151,500,000 goal."

Now South Yorkshire Police are urging residents in the Hillsborough area to beef up security and hide car keys.
Insp Ian Roberts said: "Many of the crimes we see here could have been avoided by taking simple security steps."
Over a recent two-week period the suburb has suffered 63 crimes.
Despite a concerted police effort to cut crime which saw burglaries drop by 44% and car crime by 51%, the thieves are staging a comeback.
The most common types of crimes carried out in Hillsborough are thefts of property from vehicles and house burglaries.
But more worryingly, the area is a hotspot for the 'Hanoi-style' burglaries where expensive cars are stolen by thieves who break into homes specifically looking for the vehicle's keys.
Officers say that over half of the Sheffield North police area's Hanoi burglaries, and therefore car thefts, happen in the Hillsborough area - but many could have been avoided by keeping car keys hidden.
Insp Ian Roberts said:
"We advise people not to leave items on view in vehicles, no matter how worthless they seem, to avoid advertising property to thieves.
"By checking property is secure and windows and doors are locked, you are making a criminal's life difficult, rather than you own."

By clicking Submit, you accept the Adobe Terms of Use.
Some experience with web programming using the .NET platform, as well as the ability to set up and use databases with SQL Server and ASP.NET is required. Prior experience with Flex will be helpful.
Using the data-centric development capabilities of Flash Builder 4 you can easily build Flex applications that retrieve data from HTTP services (including ASP.NET-based services). With Flash Builder 4 you can also automatically generate value objects through introspection of the XML returned from the HTTP Service. These features let you take care of the back-end plumbing with ease (and without much coding), so you can concentrate on the development of the front end.
In this article I describe how to retrieve information from an SQL table via an HTTP service built on the Microsoft .NET framework. After defining the service model via introspection, you will bind a service operation to a Flex component to use the data in the Flex application.
The example database for this tutorial, created using Visual Studio, is for an imaginary courier company that has stored the locations of its offices in the form of a table (named Centre) with the following columns and data types (see Figure 1):
To return the data from this table in XML format, you can use the sample files included with this tutorial. The code consists of three files:
You can use the Database.mdf file, which is included among this tutorial's sample files, as the SQL Server database.
The code in CentreInterface.cs includes two path references that you'll need to change. Search for
AttachDbFilename=/*ENTER PATH OF THE DB HERE*/ in the file and edit the two instances as necessary for your configuration. Refer to comments within the file to format the path properly.
After setting up the code and the database on your local server, you may want to access the ASPX file in your browser to verify that the code can access your data and is generating the XML response properly.
To create a Flex application that consumes the XML formatted data, follow these steps:
If you have a lot of operations in your service, you may want to select Yes for this option. If your base URL changes, then you only have to update the address once for all operations that are accessible via that URL. For this example, however, there is only one operation so there is no need to specify a base URL.
After Flash Builder 4 generates the service, you'll see it displayed in the Data/Services view (see Figure 4)
If you look at the
GetCentres() function in the Data/Services view, you'll notice that its return type is a generic Object. Wouldn't it be nice if you had the same custom data type in Flex as you used on your back end?
With Flash Builder 4, you can automatically generate value objects, so your class on the Flex side is equivalent to your C# class on the .NET site.
Follow these steps to configure the return type of the operation:
If your host requires authentication, then you can select Authentication Required and you be will prompted for a username and password.
You'd select the second option—Use An Existing Data Type—to use a built-in data type or to use a custom data type that you had previously configured.
There are three options available for automatically detecting the return type. The first two require a functioning server. If the operation you require takes parameters, you can select Enter Parameter Values And Call The Operation, and then enter parameter values in the grid. Alternatively you can select Enter A Complete URL And Parameters And Get It, and then type the URL with a query string that contains the parameters. This is more convenient if you don't want to enter the values in the table and you already have the URL at hand.
If your back end has not been developed fully or the server is down, you can select Enter A Sample XML/JSON Response as long as you know the format of XML that will be returned and can supply a sample.
For example, on this project, you could supply the following XML, which is sample output from CentreXml.aspx:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
Flash Builder 4 will call the operation and introspect the response, which in this case is an array of Centre objects (see Figure 7).
The return type for
GetCentres() in theData/Services view will change to
Centre_type[] (see Figure 10).
Follow these steps to use the new service and display the information returned by it.
GetCentres() (see Figure 11).
The columns of the data grid will change to reflect the names of the properties of the custom type Centre (see Figure 12).
All that's left to do now is run the application.
You will see the data grid populated with data from the database.
You have seen how easy it is to connect a .NET HTTP service to your Flex front end using data-centric development. With no coding you configured the return type, automatically generated value objects, and wired up a data grid to display the results. If you are using an HTTP service as your back end, this streamlined workflow makes it easy to provide a rich and interactive application on the front end. For more information on data-centric development refer to the article Data-centric development with Flash Builder 4.
Further development of the application would depend on your business needs. You could, for instance, use the data from the HTTP service to build an application that customers can use to send their packages and track them online. You could add interactive maps and video chatting for customer service. With Flex as your front end, the possibilities are virtually endless.

Mutually exclusive headphone and speaker
The headphone jack has a detect pin that goes high when a jack is plugged in.
I have found a simple amplifier circuit for amplifying a headphone signal for an 8 ohm lspeaker.(http://www.kynix.com/Product/Cate/590.html)
I have created a test circuit (image below) with the headphone jack and the amplified speaker circuit on the right and the output for the right channel of the audio on the left. My thinking was that when the detect signal goes high, the LM386 Vs pin would receive voltage from Vcc. Feel free to delete parts of my circuit that are bad.
Using the detect signal from the headphone jack, I would like help designing the circuit that fits the following truth table:
Detect | Speaker | Headphone
1 | 0 | 1
If you know how to use 123D Circuit you can fork my circuit and pick up where I left off.

AIKEN --- The economic situation across the country hasn't appeared to diminish the generosity of residents in Aiken County.
While fundraising efforts may have slowed a little, money is still coming in for three major projects -- the Aiken Railroad Depot, the African American Cultural Center and the Fort Gordon Fisher House.
Fisher House
The Aiken County Veterans Council has been working to raise funds for a 21-bedroom Fisher House.
The proposed 16,000-square-foot facility will be at the Charlie Norwood VA Medical Center off Wrightsboro Road, and construction will cost about $5.4 million. The community's portion is $1.8 million.
So far, the council has raised just under $800,000, said Judith Knight of the council.
In the past couple of weeks, the council has presented two donations totaling $100,000 to the building fund, and next month another check for about $5,000 will make its way into the coffers from the Denizens of the Deep.
"Every donation is important, whether it is a dollar or a thousand dollars or more," Ms. Knight said. "I am grateful to Team Fisher House for their hard work in securing donations. The team is grateful to the public."
Aiken Railroad Depot
In September, a groundbreaking ceremony for the Aiken Railroad Depot was held, culminating nine years of planning and more than a year of fundraising.
"We've come a long way," said Tim Simmons, chairman of the railroad committee. "We've still got a long way to go, but progress is being made slowly but surely."
The committee has raised more than $2.2 million of the $3 million needed to build a replica of the old Aiken Railroad Depot at Union Street and Park Avenue, which was demolished more than 50 years ago.
The money is enough to construct the shell of the building, but the committee needs additional funds to complete the project.
Steve Hale, a member of the committee, said fundraising efforts are tough right now, but he feels confident that once people see the building going up, more money will start coming in.
African American Center
Fundraising for The Center of African American History, Art and Culture has been slow.
The former Immanuel Institute, at the corner of York Street and Richland Avenue, is being renovated and will soon be home to the center.
The exterior of the facility is completed, but renovation on the structure's interior is proceeding as funding and volunteers are available.
The original budget called for $1.9 million to get the facility fully operational, but funding fell short of that goal.
Organizers and members of the Aiken Corp., which owns the property, have raised more than $1 million. More than $400,000 came from private donations and $360,000 came from the city of Aiken. Aiken County has provided $100,000.
The city's contribution comes from the accommodations tax, which is added to hotel room fees.
The most recent fundraising effort involves a book, a collaboration of local authors that chronicles the vital role blacks played in the development of Aiken County, starting with Reconstruction.
More than 300 copies of the book, which was released in August, have been sold, raising an additional $12,000.
Established in the 1890s by Presbyterian missionaries, the Immanuel Institute educated the children of former slaves.

I previewed The Easter Egg by Jan Brett at the library couple weeks ago. It is amazingly detailed and has earned the top spot on my Easter bunny book list.

I love the painted rocks! They turned out adorable and are perfect for hide-and-seek. You'll have to check out my blog this week for Easter and bunny-themed books. :)
Is that freshly spread mulch?!? I've been avoiding taking outdoor pics because my yard is such a disaster. I avoid yardwork like the plague!

I love those stone eggs - great idea. We will probably not do many Easter eggs this year though - Anna's German grandparents will be here, so I just want to give her a chance to interact with them as much as she can.

Changes need to be made at the Grant County Animal Shelter.
That was the focus when 10 people expressed their concerns about the shelter for more than three hours Sept. 13, during a fiscal court caucus meeting.
The issues ranged from the shelter's limited hours and staffing to the turnover in leadership.
The court is working on written policies and procedures for the shelter.
To read the rest of the story, pick up a copy of this week's Grant County News.
Both Grant County soccer teams fell in their respective championship games, Sept. 18 at the second annual Dry Ridge Toyota Invitational.
On the boys' side, the Braves (8-4) fell to tournament champion Conner 1-0.
"We didn't have a lot of opportunities to score," Braves coach Clay Mattingly said. "We looked tired and didn't give the kind of effort that I am used to seeing from our guys. I thought that Conner wanted the win more and it showed with the effort they gave."
Kentucky State Police are investigating the death of a 33-year-old Elsmere woman who was found in a car in the parking lot at the Shell gas station in Crittenden.
Kelly L. Stacey-Ward was pronounced dead at the scene by Grant County Coroner Marylee Willoby at 8:28 p.m. Sept. 18.
An autopsy was scheduled for Sept. 19 at the Northern Kentucky Medical Examiner's Office.
Willoby said she has ruled out foul play in the death.
Kentucky State Police, Rural Metro Ambulance and the Crittenden Fire Department responded to the scene at 355 Violet Road.
Grant County football coach Mike Davis has felt since the football team received their schedule, that the first four home games were like preseason games to prepare them for district play.
The Braves (2-2) split their first four games, as Grant County fell to Western Hills (2-2) 18-10, Sept. 17.
The Youth Performance Award winner for September is Dakoda Trenary, a senior at Williamstown High School. She is the daughter of Scott and Lori Trenary of Williamstown.
Recently she attended the Governor's Scholar Program at Bellarmine University and was inspired to further her community involvement and activities as a student at WHS.
Q: What are your extracurricular activities:
A: Cheerleading, Beta Club, track, Key Club and class president.
Q: What is your community involvement:
The world is coming to visit! Are we ready?
Beginning Sept. 25, running through Oct. 10, there will be thousands and thousands of travelers traveling through Grant County, on their way to the World Equestrian Games. If you think that won't affect us, you're wrong. People have to eat, people have to get gas, people have to spend the night somewhere. Checking with our local hotel and motel managers, I have found, they are getting lots of reservations for these dates. The Georgetown hotels are already totally booked. So that means our hotels will soon follow suit.
A reminder of 23-year-old Keagan Yates' biggest accomplishment to date is never far away.
The Dry Ridge resident, who has been showing horses since she was in Grant County 4-H, won the World Championship in amateur Showmanship Award in June at the American Ranch Horse World Show in Murfreesboro, Tenn.
Her prize was a belt buckle she proudly displays daily.
"I was ready to do a little dance," Yates said. "I haven't taken the buckle off. I wear it every day."
The Grant County Fireballs played in the state softball tournament, Sept. 10-12 in Bowling Green. The Fireballs only played one game and lost. The tournament was to be a double-elimination tournament, but due to the weather the tournament was cut down to single-elimination. The Fireballs had advanced to the state tournament after claiming the gold medal in the regional tournament in Frankfort Aug. 14.
Where: Covington Catholic Invitational
What: Grant County senior runner Jordan Cummins won the race with a time of 17:04. As a team, the Braves placed fourth in the meet behind Lexington Catholic, Covington Catholic, and Cincinnati St. Xavier.
Upcoming: The Braves will race in the Scott County Cardinal Classic in Georgetown, Sept. 23, before heading to Centerville, Ohio for the Adidas Saturday Night Lights V, Sept. 25.

A man suspected in several iPad robberies this week related to Craigslist postings has been arrested, and a woman who was with the thief is being sought, San Diego police said Thursday.
Keith Randall Smith, 34, was arrested at his Mission Valley residence without incident by police detectives from the Mid-City Division, said San Diego police Lt. Andra Brown. Two of the stolen iPads and a handgun were recovered at the residence, she said.
Smith was booked Wednesday into the central jail on two felony counts, one of robbery and one of being a felon in possession of a firearm, with bail set at $50,000, according to the jail website. He was scheduled to be arraigned at 1:30 p.m. Friday.
The robberies occurred in the College, Mount Hope and Corridor neighborhoods of San Diego.
A woman who participated in two of the heists was being sought. She was described as white, 20 to 25 years old, 5 feet 4 inches tall with a thin build and blond hair. During the robberies she was wearing a dark hoodie and dark pants, Brown said.
The first robbery was reported about 9:30 p.m. Sunday. A man responded to a Craigslist ad about an iPad for sale. He went to the victim's Talmadge apartment alone, but said he needed to show the iPad to his girlfriend. He left and quickly returned with a woman. As the victim was demonstrating the iPad features to the woman, the man pulled a small black gun from his jacket and threatened the victim and took the iPad. The victim was not injured.
On Monday, about 8:30 p.m., a man contacted a woman selling an iPad on Craigslist. The victim provided the suspect with directions to her home in the Mount Hope area. The thief arrived in a white two-door vehicle. He was invited into the victim's backyard to look at the iPad. The robber showed a black handgun, took the iPad and left, Brown said.
About 90 minutes later, a man called about another Craigslist posting for an iPad. The victim gave the man directions to the Corridor neighborhood. A woman and her mother walked to a corner near their home. A man arrived in a white car being driven by a woman. The man asked the victim to show the iPad to his girlfriend in the car. The man attempted to get into the passenger side of the car and tried to close the door, but the victim's mother held the door open. The man removed a black handgun from his jacket pocket and pointed it at the victim, then fled in the car.
Anyone with information is asked to call San Diego Police Department headquarters at (619) 531-2000, or the Mid-City Division at (619) 516-3000.

ISIS: Monastery of St. George in Mosul is still standing, a cemetery has been destroyed
The black flag on the bell tower, the statue of the Virgin Mary lying on the ground, sacred items looted, a mural of the Madonna and Child daubed in green paint. The shocking images of the desecrated monastery of St. George in the Iraqi city of Mosul continue to circulate on the web. The monastery was defaced by ISIS militants. According to Vatican Radio's report, local sources have confirmed that the cemetery adjacent to the church was destroyed. The cemetery is the resting place of many Christian soldiers who lost their lives in the Iran-Iraq war.
Iraqi sources told Catholic news agency Fides that the monastery is still standing, contrary to the rumours which initially went round, claiming that the whole building had been reduced to rubble after an explosion. An photo published exclusively on Ankawa.com shows a destroyed facade.
According to Vatican Radio, jihadists concentrated their iconoclastic fury mainly on the facade of the ancient monastery which belongs to the Order of Antonian Sant'Ormista of the Chaldeans. They did so because of its special architectural layout, with bricks and apertures positioned in such a way as to form a cross.
The crosses on the dome and on the roof had already been desecrated in December; the photos published Monday are of a new attack which took place on 7 March. According to monitoring website Site, these were published by the Islamic State's Provincial Division of Nineveh in Iraq.
According to a number of sources, the monastery was also recently used by ISIS militants as a detention centre. At least 150 blindfolded and handcuffed prisoners were transferred here in December, including some chief tribal Sunni opponents of the Islamic State. Local sources had previously told Fides that groups of women had been taken to the monastery too.
"The current monastery was built on an archaeological site containing ancient Assyrian ruins. It was an important show of continuity from the Assyrian to our culture," Archaeologist Nineveh Yakou told the UK edition of International Business Times. "Isis is wiping out the cultural heritage of Iraq. The monastery was classified as cultural heritage. It's a cultural and ethnic cleansing."

Motorola DROID X to get its Gingerbread update on May 13th?
Motorola is said to be waiting for Big Red to sign off on the latest Gingerbread build for the carrier's former flagship model and the final version is said to be more recent than a previously leaked build numbered 4.5.591. It is hoped that Verizon will be signing off on the upgrade today with a release coming next Friday.
Verizon might have to cut the price of the Motorola DROID X before the sequel is launched. If you have been stalking the phone waiting for the best time to buy, you might get an opportunity sometime within the next week.

How about the Atrix... This is turning out to be yet another Moto FAIL..
2. Sniggly (Posts: 7305; Member since: 05 Dec 2009)
Huh. Well, it'll be interesting to see if there's something new in the next build they didn't include in mine. I really hope they didn't change their minds about some things and pull them. However, waiting until the X2 is released to push out the update makes sense.
20. Droid_X_Doug (Posts: 5993; Member since: 22 Dec 2010)
I wonder if Moto is going to be giving any further updates to the Droid X after this one? Or, is this the goodbye kiss and then Moto is focused 100% on their new handsets?

The update is real. I have it. It's just been a matter of when they release it.
And no, I've never rooted any phone.
6. Thump3rDX17 (Posts: 2160; Member since: 10 May 2010)
i hope they push it out to the Droid 2 at the same time.
7. Sniggly (Posts: 7305; Member since: 05 Dec 2009)
If they follow this logic the 2phone won't get the update until the 3 is going to be released.
9. Thump3rDX17 (Posts: 2160; Member since: 10 May 2010)
the 3 is likely to be released quite soon. Moto is not sending anymore shipments of either of the Droid 2 models.
10. Thump3rDX17 (Posts: 2160; Member since: 10 May 2010)
it's gonna be pretty interesting to see how "GingerBlur" is taken by the critics in the DX2 and the D3 reviews.

Ever wonder where milk comes from? It's come from a sexy Latina cow you stupid fuck. Where the fuck did you think it a hot Latina came from? A hot Latina porn actress? Speaking of which, wow those girls are sexy as hell. Who the fuck knew that eating tacos and beans all day long would create such sexual masterpieces. Now the only confusion is whether Latin America or Spain or both is where a Latina comes from. Some of them look like black girls but without the sexy Latina porn, and some of them look like white people that got a tan. It's like their in the middle of both world's and have trouble picking a side. Also, you can get liquid from other animals. Goats and rats also have milk in their bellies.

The Incredible Shrinking Man
Nov 14, 2012
(Jack Arnold, 1957, USA, 81mins, 35mm)
Young marrieds Scott and Louise are out in their boat for a quiet weekend getaway. Suddenly enveloped in a strange mist, Scott is covered with a dust they at first think odd, but then don't think much about. But in the days and weeks afterwards, what seems like nothing more than bad sunburn envelops Scott's sense of manhood and then puts him at a bizarre threat. Despite the cheesy sensationalism of the title, this remains one of Universal's and Hollywood's smartest science fantasy films of the 1950s. The script is one of the best from Richard Matheson, with the H-bomb fallout that blew in from the US bomb tests in Bikini Atoll hanging heavy over its meaning; but like Invasion of the Body Snatchers it's not just rich with Cold War paranoia, but also with hints at the 1950's more private psychological anxieties. A pulp masterpiece and according to Universal, this is the last 35mm print of this movie in know existence

New love. Exotic destinations. A once-in-a-lifetime adventure. What could go wrong?
City girl Torre DeRoche isn't looking for love, but a chance encounter in a San Francisco bar sparks an instant connection with a soulful Argentinean man who unexpectedly sweeps her off her feet. The problem? He's just about to cast the dock lines and voyage around the world on his small sailboat, and Torre is terrified of deep water. However, lovesick Torre determines that to keep the man of her dreams, she must embark on the voyage of her nightmares, so she waves good-bye to dry land and braces for a life-changing journey that's as exhilarating as it is terrifying.
This sometimes hilarious, often harrowing, and always poignant memoir is set against a backdrop of the world's most beautiful and remote destinations. Equal parts love story and travel memoir, Love with a Chance of Drowning is witty, charming, and proof positive that there are some risks worth taking.
©2013 Torre DeRoche (P)2013 Brilliance Audio, Inc.
"A funny, irresistibly offbeat tale about the risks and rewards of living, and loving, with an open heart." (Kirkus Reviews)
There are no listener reviews for this title yet.
"True Adventure and Romance--I Loved It!!"
This true memoir audiobook was extraordinarily fun for me. Audible does a great job of describing it. My description is more brief. Young Australian female travels to San Francisco to live for a year after promising her family she will not fall for an American and stay in the US. Instead she falls for an Argentinian who is determined to sail the world in his old but refurbished sail boat. Does she choose to go with him? You bet and there would be no story if she didn't go. Is she afraid of deep water? You bet. (But not as scared of it as I am!)
This is a very entertaining story, just perfect for armchair adventurers like me. No scares, no risking my life, no constipation, just relaxing in the house and listening to someone else's wonderful, scary, funny, one of a kind experiences. It is not just fluffy romance. There is a great deal about the workings of a sailboat, family dynamics, meeting interesting people, finding food, South Pacific islalnds/islanders, and making a relationship work when you have not a square foot of privacy and nowhere to go during a spat. Think 24/7 for months at a time. I wonder how many of us have someone we could imagine spending that much time with?
I found the story to get better and funnier as it went on and now that it is done, I wonder, what can I listen to next? Everything else seems so dry, dull, and boring. (Really, I want to listen to it again. Not sure . . . .)
"Great Fun & A Fantastic Adventure"
I loved this book! As I'm thinking about taking up sailing I decided to do a search for good books on sailing. What I loved about the description on this book was that unlike all the others Torre was not keen on the idea at all. As someone who is also being told by her partner how great sailing is I was ecstatic to find a book written by someone who was coming at the whole adventure from my viewpoint: sailing is scary and so is the ocean!
The book is laugh out loud funny while at the same time giving an honest account of both the highs and lows of travel, sailing and doing so with your partner.
I can only highly recommend this book for anyone interested in sailing or long term adventure with your partner! (Be that of the armchair or actual variety!)
"Not what I expected"
Excited to start this book but felt it was just constant complaining. No excitement, no drama, no real romance. Just a constant litany of apprehension. No real climax. Was happy when it was over :(
"Very sweet & enjoyable"
I really enjoyed this sweet book from start to finish. Some parts felt a little slow, but overall a great read!
The narrator was cute and really good. Wasn't the biggest fan of Ivan's "accept" but it was still cute nonetheless.
An adventure for sure!
"loved it"
This book really took me to another place. I loved hearing about all of their adventures. Now, wear can I sign up for sailing lessons?
"To much anxiety"
The overall story was similar to other books in this space. The overall tone of the story was dominated with worry, anxiety and fear. It was a big turn off for me. Impressive that someone with so much fear was able to do as much as she did.
"Easy, Entertaining, Inspiring"
This isn't the book to read if you're looking for something to change your life, but it is a lovely and inspiring story nonetheless. I would highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a pick-me-up, or a book that's easy and enjoyable.
"Great Book"
I did not expect this book to be as good as it was. It's a great story that could easily be fiction, but it's not! Humorous, sweet, interesting travelogue that will keep your attention.
"The narrator Absolutely brings this book to life!"
Candice Moll, the narrator, is Exceptional- how did she do all the different accents so seamlessly?! The author, Torre DeRoche, tells her personal experience in an authentic way. She doesn't tell a very dramatic, Hollywood- exaggerated version of her experience. it's simple and personal. At once inspiring yet realistic, which, in an adventure story, is refreshing, since they often times can be highly romanticized and pretentious, whereas she's honest about, for example, how lonely it could be.
"Great read!"
Not the best I have ever read but a very good and easy, light reading book.
How Torrey dealt with her fears.
Gotta say the ending was good and not one I was expecting.
No...I read at night while laying in bed and getting sleepy...the quicker I finish....the less I have to read at bedtime.

Some right-wing truckers are going to block DC traffic and 'arrest' members of Congress
A bunch of truckers angry at EPA fuel efficiency standards, Obamacare, the arming of Syrian Rebels, and, I don't know, the high cost of naked lady mudflaps or whatever, are headed to DC (or "Bull City," as it is known in CB lingo) to obnoxiously block commuter traffic on the beltway until they get to arrest all the members of Congress who have
violated their oath of office voted for things they don't personally support. They are calling it "Truckers Ride for The Constitution."
Earl Conlon, one of the organizers, has stated that truckers will be circling the beltway three lanes deep starting October 11th—until their demands are met, or until the weekend is over, whichever comes first.
Earl Conlon, who is totally going to arrest all the Demo-rats. (photo)
Commuters will only be allowed to pass if they write T2SDA (Truckers to Shut Down America!) on their vehicle, because nothing is more American than making people who don't agree with you late for work. "It's going to be real fun for anyone who is not a supporter," Conlon said, "[and] if cops decide to give us a hard time, we're going to lock the brakes up, we're going to stop right there, we're going to be a three lane roadblock."
He and his trucker friends and some ex-country singer named Zeeda Andrews, who are in no way indicative of what happens to people who listen to right-wing talk radio at length, have assembled a "Citizen Grand Jury" and indicted several members of congress whom they believe have violated the constitution.
This whole "Citizen Grand Jury" is the hot new thing for weirdo conspiracy theorists. It started with 9/11 truthers, and the torch has since been passed to birthers and other fringey right-wing lunatics. It's pretty much like, get a bunch of your friends together and demand that elected officials be arrested for not agreeing with your views or giving you free ice cream. It's the same tactic used by that Larry Klayman dude who thinks he's going to arrest Obama on November 19th.
"We want these people arrested, and we're coming in with the grand jury to do it," he said. "We are going to ask the law enforcement to uphold their constitutional oath and make these arrests. If they refuse to do it, by the power of the people of the United States and the people's grand jury, they don't want to do it, we will. … We the people will find a way."
Unfortunately for this fella, no matter what Alex Jones has been telling him, these Citizen Grand Juries are not, like, real things. When a group of birthers tried to indict President Obama, they were promptly informed by a judge that "[T]here is no authority under the Rules of Procedure or in the statutes of the United States for this court to accept [a presentment]… The individuals who have made this presentment were not convened by this court to sit as a grand jury nor have they been selected at random from a fair cross section of this district. Any self-styled indictment or presentment issued by such a group has no force under the Constitution or laws of the United States."
If any members of this group do attempt to arrest a member of Congress, they will likely be charged with kidnapping, given that they don't actually have the authority to arrest anyone, period. For his part, however, Conlon is pathetically optimistic:
"What we want to do is go in nice and peaceful and keep it as peaceful as possible… but if they decide to get ugly with us we're going to do what we have to do," he said. "If all I get is one or two congressmen walked out of there in handcuffs, that will be a shot across the bow that will ripple across all branches of government. … I hope they are all civil enough and brave enough to step out onto the congressional steps."
Yeah, dude, I'm really sure that's going to happen. All they're going to accomplish is looking like weird crazy losers and annoying the crap out of people trying to get to work on time.
There are tons of politicians I don't like. The vast majority of them, even. However, I am not mental, and I don't think I have the authority to arrest Ted Cruz for being a bag of dicks. Just like I'm not dumb enough to believe that if I fill out some paper work and capitalize my entire name, that I get to be a sovereign citizen and not pay my taxes. Or that if I say Beetlejuice three times that Michael Keaton will appear and make my family do a Conga-line dance to "Day-O." It's simply not realistic.
However, as far as I'm concerned, October 11th can't come soon enough. This ought to be hilarious.

Philadelphia (May. 23)
Lessing J. Rosenwald, son of Julius Rosenwald, famous philanthropist, was elected president of the Federation of Jewish Charities here at a testimonial dinner tendered to Justin P. Allman, retiring president. Among the 700 people present was Julius Rosenwald, who in a brief address told of the pride he felt in the fact that his son had been chosen to head the Federation and expressed the belief that the younger element of the Jewish community must take a larger share of the Federation's responsibilities upon their own shoulders.
The election of the younger Rosenwald, who is nearing 40, was characterized by Mr. Allman as a challenge to the younger people of Philadelphia's Jewish community to become active in the Federation's work. Other officers elected were Samuel S. Fels and Mrs. Arthur Loeb, vice-presidents, Isaac Gerstely, treasurer and Irving Cohen, secretary.

HOLCOMBE Brook will bid for glory on two fronts this weekend as both the ladies and men's teams contest the Aegon National Team Tennis finals in Bournemouth.
The opening rounds of the national competition take place on Friday and Saturday, with the finals on Sunday.
The ladies team, who have won the tournament four times, have the best chance of bringing home silverware.
Although final seeding for the championship will not be decided until today, captain Tony Lawson believes they will be ranked in third place.
They will be headed by Anna Fitzpatrick and Yasmin Clarke, who have identical ratings and, as such, can switch between one and two, with Jessica Ren and Nicola George at three and four.
"Being seeded means we won't meet the very best teams in the opening round, but there will be no easy games," said Lawson.
"We would like to avoid Edgbaston Priory if they are not seeded. We have had some tough battles with them in the recent past."
Lawson said the men's team was the best the club had ever entered the competition, but remained unsure whether they would be seeded.
With the inclusion of Ashley Hewitt, who will play at one with Simon Roberts now at two, Lawson believes it will be tight between themselves and Bromley for the last seeded place.
Jonny Parkes will play three and Imran Aswat four. Chris Nott and captain Andy Davies will be reserve or doubles players.
Davies said: "If we are not seeded we will be the team everyone wants to avoid.
"These matches are not just about the top players, we are hoping Imran Aswat will be too strong for most players at four."
Whatever the outcome, the players will look the part as sponsors Butcher & Barlow (Solicitors) have paid for new kit for the prestigious event.

Reviews for Brown Sugar Oat Muffins
Average Rating
"First off, thank you for this recipe. I really do like it.Good muffin. Not to sweet, which is great. Seemed a tad dry on the first batch (That is why only 4 stars), but the 2nd time around, I added 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce, cut the amount of oil in half, added 1/4 cup ground flax, cut the sugar down to 1/2 cup (Used white, was out of brown both times), doubled the vanilla. Also used unsweetened almond milk. Both times added 1/2 cup of raisins. If I had made these exact changes the 1st time I made them, I would have given 5 stars. Next time, Im thinking adding some lemon juice and poppy seeds. So many possibility with this recipe."
"Great muffin. Hardy texture. I added pumpkin pie spice. Perfect without butter, jam or anything."
"Good muffin that is not too sweet."
"I was looking for a base recipe for oatmeal muffins and this one is perfect! I added in 1-1/2 cups of chopped apples that were mixed with cinnamon and sugar. I also added a streusel to the top, made of flour, brown sugar and butter. The muffins baked up perfectly, they're soft, and taste wonderful. Great recipe!"
"Make these often for my family. Men tend to like the heartiness of these muffins, I've found."
"These muffins are nice to serve with jam as a breakfast treat. They also make a nice after school snack. They freeze well too."
"Delicious! Perfect breakfast muffins."
"Great mild oat muffin! I don't feel like I'm serving cupcakes for breakfast! : ) Entire family loves them warm out of the oven and we even renamed these- "Mommy's Good Morning Muffins""
"I also forgot to add to my last review that I also substituted organic coconut oil (melted) instead of the canola oil.. and they were very light and much healthier for my family. :)"
"I thought that these turned out wonderful! I used organic whole wheat flour and instead of just using vanilla extract, I used 3/4 tsp almond extract & 1/4 tsp vanilla. They turned out so flavorful and even my picky eaters begged for seconds! Because I am a busy mom of four, I mixed up the dry ingredients the night before and just added the wet ingredients the next morning. I am also going to make several more batches of the dry ingredients, package and label them for future breakfast.. so that all I have to do is pull out the bag, add the extract, milk and fresh eggs and breakfast is served!! :)"
"I substituted white flour for all of the flour.We loved them and plan to make them again."
"I added chocolate chips but they were still too bland.... maybe some chopped apple would give them some flavor."
"easy vegan conversion. Everyone loves this in my family and at parties!"
"As is, this recipe is just OK. But add a teaspoon of cinnamon and a handful of rum-soaked raisins, and they are wonderful!"
"I had hoped that they would be much better than they turned out. I bake muffins all the time, but these were very gritty & dry. I think that too much whole wheat flour was called for in the recipe. I probably won't make them again."
"The base recipe is good. I added 1 tap of cinnamon (I thought it was 1/2, but I grabbed the wRong spoon), a dash of pumpkin pie spice and chopped up a small granny smith. I only had a 1/2 cup of whole wheat flour so I used that and substituted all purpose flour for the rest. Came out really tasty. I'll use all whole wheat flour next time. Texture wasn't cake like, just right."
"i liked these but was not crazy about them but i do want to try with the cinnamon"
"Just what those muffins needed was a teaspoon of cinnamon. Good recommendation. Not too dense, will put this in the recipe box!"
"I used all white all-purpose flour and added a tsp. of cinnamon like others had suggested. These muffins are really good!"
"These muffins are really good. I am always trying to find a healthy snack for my kids to eat. They really liked them. I did add 1 tsp of cinnamon and 1/2 tsp nutmeg. Great recipe. I will be making these again"
"These muffins are great! I used skim milk instead of 2% just because that's all I had on hand. I also added 1 tsp. cinnamon and 1/2 cup of raisins. They are so good. Sweet but not too sweet."
"I love the texture of these. I only had skim milk handy and I reduced the oil and they are delicious! I added some saigon cinnamon and chocolate chips to the last quarter of my batch - awesome!"
"Excellent recipe! The old-fashioned oats gave the muffins a bit of texture, which was nice---almost like nuts. The only change I made was to add a teaspoon of nutmeg. These are great plain, or with a bit of butter or jam. I will be making these again, definitely!"
"This is a real muffin recipe. So many muffin recipes are more like cake. I've tried close to twenty recipes without much luck. This one is great because it is the right "muffin" consistency and flavor. I made it with my son who loved the muffins and was very proud. We made it exactly as the recipe called, but I think it could be altered easily with fruit or nuts, etc. That said, this one doesn't need altering. Alas, I have found muffin happiness!"
"These were delicious. I added a teaspoon of cinnamon to the dry ingredients. Next time I will add some chopped walnuts and some raisins."
"I can't wait to try these! If you don't like the wheat flour, though, just replace it with the same amount of all-purpous flour. the wheat flour just makes it healthier."
"This is nice."
"Omgosh, were these good! Very moist! I did add some cinnamon..which gave them a great flavor! I will definitely make these again."
"All 3 of my children thought that this was a fantastic treat for morning tea! And they didn't have any idea that it was actually healthy for them!"
"I didn't care for it myself, but I can always taste the whole wheat. I can say, however, that not a one was left at the snack table I cook for every Sunday. For those who like this type of muffin, I'd have to say it's a good recipe."
"These are delicious with almost a honey-like taste. But we thought they were a little "plain"...will add raisins and nuts next time."
"It's hard to find a whole wheat flour recipe that tastes good...but this one is outstanding! Still very moist, baked up beautifully! If you are watching the fat, no need to add the butter, it's that good!"

Bafana Bafana midfielder Steven Pienaar jetted in to SA this week to face charges of assault, only for the case to be postponed because the police are yet to complete their investigation.
Pienaar stands accused of assaulting Thabang Mnisi, the son of Deputy Minister of Public Service and Administration Ayanda Dlodlo, at a popular Sandton nightclub, Icon, last month.
According to Mnisi's statement, Pienaar had been part of a group of friends who kicked and punched him in the head.
At Pienaar's second appearance at the Randburg Magistrate's Court on Wednesday, the police had still not completed identity parades and other investigative work to determine if Pienaar had been involved in the beating.
However, his lawyer, Cliff Alexander, said the soccer player had not been part of the violence.
He also alleged that the complainant, Mnisi, had not turned up at the Sandton police station on Tuesday, which could mean that the charges against Pienaar may be dropped. Mnisi did not arrive at Wednesday's court appearance either.
Pienaar is set to return to the UK at the end of the week but will have to return to SA in September when the case continues.

House of Mystery v1 #229, 1975 - When a newlywed couple's car breaks down, the husband looks for help while the wife subsequently takes refuge at a nearby castle. It's creepy inhabitants, not surprisingly, have other plans for her. Nestor Redondo's tale resembles DC's earlier attempts at gothic romance, although more frightful in tone. One of his longest bronze age works, the artist paces and composes the story with great skill. Each page is beautifully rendered, starting with the horrific opening splash to the shocking finale. Reprints fill the bulk of the issue, including work by Alex Toth (House of Mystery #187) and Bernie Wrightson (House of Mystery #183). The cover borrows art from the interior story and the cover of DC 100 Page Super Spectacular #4. Other artists in this issue include Wayne Howard and Mort Meskin (reprints). This is number 11 of 16 House of Mystery issues with Redondo art and/or covers. See today's posts or more Redondo or House of Mystery issues. See also this blog's Toth checklist, Wrightson checklist, Top 10 Wrightson comics, Redondo checklist or Top 10 Redondo comics.

Specific Media Targets Consumers By The Car They Drive
Irvine-based Specific Media, the online advertising provider--and parent firm of MySpace--said today that it has launched a new advertising targeting product which allows automotive advertisers to target households based on what cars are currently in their garage. According to Specific Media, its new multi-screen, targeting solution is aimed at helping market new vehicles to consumers, with the firm calling it a "killer app" for automakers looking to promote new vehicle launches or events. Specific Media said its new ad targeting product aggregates all of the connected devices in a household, letting advertisers reach the same household via such devices as PC, tablet, laptop, mobile, games console and IPTVs. Specific Media has pulled data from Polk and Datalogix to power the auto vehicle and household targeting effort.

No Frills Mittens
This pattern is available for $5.50 USD buy it now
Sizes Sm (Med, Lg)
Finished hand circumference: 7 1/4 (8, 8 3/4)".
This is a basic, unisex mitten, and a great "first mitten" project.
Because it is so simple, you can easily add colorwork, cables, embroidery, or other embellishments to the basic design, and it is easy to make simple adjustments to the fit for a larger or smaller mitten.
Included is an option for a fingerless version, using a technique for making stripes out of a single color of variegated yarn.
