* German yields hold above one-month lows
* 10 pct oil price rise boosts inflation outlook
* France's Macron clashes with Le Pen in presidential debate
* Polls show Macron has most convincing programme
* Euro zone periphery govt bond yields tmsnrt.rs/2ii2Bqr
By John Geddie
LONDON, April 5 (Reuters) - A surge in oil prices and easing concerns over France's upcoming presidential election appeared to put the brakes on a fall in euro zone government bond yields on Wednesday.
Germany's 10-year bond yield -- the bloc's benchmark -- has halved over the last three weeks as investors reassessed fiscal stimulus from the United States and the time scale for the withdrawal of monetary easing in the single currency area.
But a near 10 percent rise in the price of oil over the last fortnight, and the inflationary impact that will bring, has started to make money managers reconsider the outright level of yields.
One of the justifications for these levels is the political risk presented by next month's French presidential election, where eurosceptic Marine Le Pen is one of the leading contenders.
Her chances though were seen diminishing after a TV debate on Tuesday where a snap poll showed her as the fourth-most-convincing candidate, trailing Jean-Luc Melenchon, Emmanuel Macron and Francois Fillon.
"The rally has been strong in recent days and an interruption in this trend should be expected," ING's senior rates strategist Martin van Vliet said.
"With the TV debate in France not showing a surprisingly strong showing for Le Pen, the flight to safety theme is weakening."
Analysts said the sale of four billion euros of five-year bonds from Germany on Wednesday and caution ahead of the release of minutes from the U.S. Federal Reserve's latest meeting was also keeping yields in a holding pattern. Investors tend to sell existing bonds in their portfolio to make room for new supply.
German 10-year bond yields rose 1 basis point to 0.26 percent on Wednesday, off a one-month low of 0.24 percent breached Tuesday but still well off a 14-month high of 0.51 percent seen in the middle of last month.
Most other euro zone yields were flat or slightly higher on the day.
The gap between French and German bond yields was a fraction tighter after the presidential debate in which leading candidate Macron clashed sharply with Le Pen over Europe.
While polls showed Macron lost out to the far-left's Melenchon as the most convincing performer in the debate, his plan for office was seen as the most credible of all the candidates.
With political fears easing, investor attention switched to oil which climbed near one-month highs on signs of a gradual tightening in global oil inventories and concerns about a supply outage at a field in Britain's North Sea.
The oil rise is expected to feed through into future inflation gauges closely watched by policymakers in the European Central Bank, some of whom are arguing that economic conditions warrant the withdrawal of its bond-buying scheme.

A Baseball Themed Wedding at the Farm at High Shoals | Athens, Ga Wedding Photographer
Posted on September 4, 2016
The kids are back in school. Football season has started. The Major League Baseball playoffs are only a month away. Every morning, when I wake up to a new day, there is a bit of a nip of fall in the air. I couldn't think of a better wedding to share this Labor Day weekend than Catherine and Chris's baseball themed wedding at the Farm at High Shoals from this past Memorial Day weekend. I have to admit, I was a bit nervous when Catherine told me about her theme. There were so many ways that I felt it could go wrong. I shouldn't have worried. She pulled it off perfectly. From the red laced Keds all the way to the baseball and Cracker Jack favors, this wedding was beautiful and so well put together. So on this Labor Day weekend, sit back, relax and enjoy an All-American Southern Wedding!
If you love the Farm at High Shoals, be sure to check out this stunning fall bohemian wedding inspiration.
Are you planning an All-American day? Samantha and Chris's wedding will also be perfect inspiration for you and your big day! And we also have this gorgeous inspiration from Charleston that should float your boat!
Oh and this sign just gets me every time I see it!! I can just hear Tom Hanks screaming, "There's no crying in baseball!" A League of Their Own is one of my all-time favorite movies. And the home plate for the altar? Just perfection!
At first glance, I was thoroughly confused by the table numbers. They didn't go in order. And some were really high like 80! There weren't 80 tables in this barn. Finally it occurred to me that they were the players jersey numbers! How fantastic is that?!?!?!?! No, ya'll, I don't really like baseball. I am a football girl myself.
Get the Look with these amazing vendors!

The quest for the perfect chip led PepsiCo to enter into a partnership with BASIX, a company that provides financial services to the poor. While the former would gain a quality crop of potatoes, the latter would help the farmers with loans. But was this relationship so rosy? Professors Gita Bajaj and Neelu Bhullar of the Management Development Institute (MDI), Gurgaon, are co-authors of this award-winning case.
After a routine meeting with local farmers on March 15, 2007, when Mihir Sahana, Area Manager for BASIX in Jharkhand, India, returned to his office he found an email from Shishir Ranjan, Manager Agriculture/Business Development Services (Ag/BDS), reminding him of the PepsiCo-BASIX Partnership project-performance review presentation that was planned for the following week. The presentation was to be made to Samiran Das, Operations Director, PepsiCo Inc., and S Ramachandran, Senior Vice-President, Bhartiya Samruddhi Finance Ltd.(BASIX Group Co.). However, before that, Sahana and Ranjan had to brainstorm to explain the mediocre second-year results of the PepsiCo-BASIX partnership. The road ahead needed to be charted, given that the project was precariously positioned – the first year had been a runaway success, but the second year results required loopholes that needed to be addressed.

text: Off-roaders place a special premium on low-end power and part-throttle response, and the most direct path to such attributes is more cubic inches. The folks over at 4 Wheel & Offroad put together a 450 cubic inch small-block Chevy, using some trick components to get big-blockish displacement. The Dart Iron Eagle block uses widened oil pan rails to accommodate the 4.125" stroke crank, the extra deck height keeps the rod ratio somewhat reasonable, and there's enough meat to allow 4.165" of bore. The result is an engine that produces about the same peak power (480 HP) as the 396 LT4 in my Impala SS, but over 1000 RPM earlier. Peak torque is a stout 571 lb-ft at 3,700 RPM. Not enough? Then try it with a 8-71 supercharger, which resulted in over 700 HP and 725 lb-ft of the twisty stuff. It's probably fair to point out that a big-block might make more power for the same money, and I'd be lying if I said I didn't want one of my own.

Oh, hell, Philip Quast as Ben? Be still my heart. Finally, an actor who might give Benjamin Stone more than one dimension.
This wasn't on my radar until last week. I'm sort of morbidly curious.But, actually, reading complaints that the acting is amateurish does more to deter me than the subject matter.
The night I saw it, each "switch" was clearly evident as it happened. The effect was still fun, and it got big laughs and a hand, but I was disappointed, as it detracted from what really needs to be – and should be – an entirely seamless trick. But then I read people's reviews here and talked to friends, and no one else thought it was noticeable, so maybe they were having an off night when I was there. They were only about a week into previews, so t
Will Eno's WAKEY, WAKEY at Signature. It was a real knockout, and I barely heard anyone talk about it.
Thanks for the report, uncageg! It sounds fantastic. I'm trying to decide between this and IN AND OF ITSELF for an upcoming Sunday night.

I didn't care for the show as much as you did, uncageg, but the Jeremy Pope performance you describe sounds very much like the performance I saw two months ago. While the book doesn't exactly give him a ton to build a character from (first he's required to react; then he's required to emote), I don't think Pope is up to snuff acting-wise or vocally here. Or: if he has notable talent, this material doesn't allow him to display it.And I'm with
I understand the knocks Buffett takes. He has a catalogue filled with frivolity. He also has knack for economical, aching storytelling ("He Went to Paris" )and melancholy evocativeness ("Come Monday" ). And given his age and musical milieu, his introspective treatment of male angst might surprise casual listeners. (Pro tip: the protagonist who pleads with a woman to get drunk and screw is not a hero, but a pathetic, alpha-male poseur.) My point is, he&r
IN AND OF ITSELF looks interesting, and it has Sunday night shows.
Huh. And I thought I remembered recently reading in another thread you saying you're not a Republican. I must have misread.
Ughhhhh so jealous of everyone seeing Dave again.
Wow. GREAT COMET leads by 2 even with no Supporting Actress noms. Good for them! I'm also very pleased with all of the GROUNDHOG DAY and FALSETTOS recognition. Aside from Amber Gray not being nominated, this is a pretty solid pack.
More Grace McLean support here. The larger space of the Imperial has diluted – or maybe just re-contextualized – the show's "wow" moments, all of which felt more explosive at Kazino, but Grace still registers what is a relatively minor role, material-wise, in a big way. I'll also add lots of love for Gelsey Bell's Princess Mary, who knocks it out of the park. I've seen a few different Marys, but nobody can touch the range of emotions she wrings
If he did that, he would be using his faculties in the manner of a critic, which he despises. For After Eight, his opinions – i.e., those silly lists of adjectives – don't need justification. They are correct without explanation, they are the Truth, and you can take them or leave them. (And whichever you choose is irrelevant because, either way, he's still right. And he has the nerve to rail against smugness. Amazing, isn't it?)
After Eight said: "Arch, smug, and start-ass, affectedly and self-indulgently staged.The critics raved.What a surprise." Gosh, I hate to imagine what that says about DOLLY!
If you have the choice and aren't attached to Josh as a name, see Dave. I saw Dave three times and have seen Josh twice, and I'm really sad I won't make it back while Dave is subbing. Josh is terrific. He really is. You'd be more than satisfied with his performance. But Dave owns Pierre.
I actually enjoy the movie on its own terms, but it took me awhile to get to that point, as I'm very attached to the show. Do I wish more than half the score hadn't been cut? Yes. Is there a much better movie adaptation to be made from NINE? Yes, and I hope someday we see it. I kind of love DDL's performance in the movie – because it works in the movie. Those choices would never work in the show, nor do I think that's he'd make those choices i
I wonder how After Eight -- who considers Teachout our best critic, btw -- isn't shattered by this response. It is in every way a violation of the agenda he ascribes to the theater intelligentsia.

Published to coincide with Leonard Cohen's exclusive show at London's The O2 on Friday 21 June 2013. This book contains exclusive material and interviews making it THE biography to buy on Leonard Cohen - singer-songwriter, musician, poet, and novelist.
The genius behind such classic songs as Suzanne, Bird on the Wire and Hallelujah, Leonard Cohen has been one of the most important and influential songwriters of our time, a man of spirituality, emotion, and intelligence whose work has explored the definitive issues of human life - sex, religion, power, meaning, love.
I'm Your Man explores the facets of Cohen's life. Sylvie Simmons draws on Cohen's private archives and a wealth of interviews with many of his closest associates, colleagues, and other artists whose work he has inspired.
About the Author
Sylvie Simmons is a renowned music journalist and award-winning writer. A Londoner, she moved to LA in the late seventies where she began writing about rock music for Sounds, Creem and Kerrang!, then Rolling Stone, the Guardian and MOJO. She is the author of fiction and non-fiction books, including the acclaimed Serge Gainsbourg: A Fistful of Gitanes, Neil Young: Reflections in Broken Glass and the short story collection Too Weird for Ziggy. She currently lives in San Francisco, where she plays ukulele and still writes for MOJO.

I bought this book as I already had a copy and wanted one for a gift. This copy is smaller, the paper quality is flimsy and the text is minute. It is very disappointing and I cannot give it as a gift. I am told to return it, I need to purchase bubble wrap and a postage box and pay return postage. I regret the purchase.
Best Uses
There are lots of Leonard Cohen biogs out there but this is the best i've read so far. Brilliantly researched and the interviewees are key. The author is a respected rock critic of many years standing and has put together the definitive biog (so far). makes you want to go back and revisit all Cohen's albums, even 'Death Of a Ladies Man'. No new interviews with Cohen himself but Simmons more than compensates. I learnt a lot about his early life in Canada.
'Cohen gets the music biography he truly deserves.' Mojo
'Simmons' clear affection for her subject helps to illuminate Cohen's motivations and working methods and gives an intriguing insight into his singular mind.' Sunday Times
'The year's most meticulous, elegant and satisfying rock book.' Independent
'Simmons loves language, hates cliche and takes her time... [she] recreates long-gone incidents with such vigour that you'd swear Simmons was there at the time, sitting in the corner and taking notes.' Guardian
'A well-rounded portrait of the poet-singer...his dry wit finds an echo in Simmons's phrase-making.' Financial Times

New line-up additions
With Easter out of way and a belated, if brief, first taste of Spring to lift spirits, LAND OF KINGS eagerly looks forward to the next Bank Hol with new line-up additions..
Top of the list of newly added acts are 10-piece psychedelic ensemble Chrome Hoof (pictured) blending doom metal, disco and acid house and somehow managing to make it work. Genre tags aside, it's their frenetic live show that's cemented their cult status, earning slots at festivals from Ether to Sonisphere, and supporting the likes of Justice along the way. Elsewhere, Sam Howard aka Halls airs his achingly sombre 'Ark' album, E8 ethereal dream wavers Paradise do their 'cosmic country' thing and krautcore quartet Bo Ningen present a special improv set. Sleekly futuristic rockers PVT also join, Portico Quartet spin-off outfit Circle Traps showcase their mutated live 2-step sound, ex-Metronomy man Gabriel Stebbing plays under his Night Works guise and Seams brings his at times throbbing, at others luminescent take on electronica.
On the DJ front, hotly-tipped NTS Radio residents Dark Sky show why they've risen above the crop of their dubstep-meets-garage contemporaries, Dalston Superstore honcho Dan Beaumont lays down some proto-house, odd ball Balearic outfit Soft Rocks and Lowlife DJs delve into their ample if dusty vaults whilst one-to-watch Clancy weighs in with some heads-down, low slung disco. Joining the list of record label showcases previously announced, two more Hackney-based indie imprints Public Information and Petit Records represent, each bringing unique perspectives from the electronic underground. Also announced is the latest party: Bugged Out 10 x 10 featuring ten DJs playing their all time favourite dance records back-to-back. Watch this space for DJs TBA soon

Seekonk store helps in hunger relief
October 20, 2012 by James
A New England convenience store chain has released the results of an August promotion to collect money for northeast food banks and a Seekonk location was one of the top three fundraisers.
The Stop & Shop store on Highland Avenue in Seekonk raised $5,100 dollars – part of the $400,000 grand total in the Healthy ideas Food for Friends Program which ran from August 3 – 26. Fundraisers of any type are ideal opportunities for local print companies to do poster printing to encourage donations and community participation.
Customers were encouraged to donate $1, $3, or $5 at checkouts to help relieve hunger and stock food bank shelves throughout New England. The chain donated all proceeds to several regional agencies across New England. About $239,000 was given to hunger relief organizations while $159,000 was forwarded to seven food banks in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire.
Joe Kelley, president of Stop & Shop's New England division, said:
"Healthy Ideas Food for Friends was designed to bring relief during a time when many are not thinking about hunger.
"We are grateful for our customers' unending generosity. This program will make a difference in thousands of lives, bringing healthy and more nutritious meals to those in need."
Stop & Shop employs 62,000 workers in 400 stores situated in six northeast states. Through philanthropic initiatives and the support of its customers, the chain has raised money in the past for hunger relief, childhood cancers, and educational programs for children.

The Silver Springs and Syracuse Railway Company was a privately held Class II railroad in the United States. The SS&SRC ran from Silver Springs, Maryland to Syracuse, New York, making it the longest Class II railroad, with most trains running for 5 hours and 45 minutes.
The railroad had connections with CSX, Norfolk Southern, and several other rail carriers.
Amtrak also ran several trains over the SS&SRC's long line.
The railroad mostly used trackage rights to run trains.
It started up in 1974 and was shut down in 2008.
Rolling stock
The SS&SRC mostly used second hand power. The railroad owned 14 A and 14 B EMD F2 units bought from Ferrocarriles Nacionales de México, 6 EMD FP10 units bought from the MBTA, 2 EMD FP7 A units bought from Canadian National, 1 EMD FP9 bought from Canadian Pacific (ex CP #1412, also known as the infamous "Choo Choo Motherfucker" locomotive), 6 Commonwealth Railways GM class units bought from Great Northern Rail Services in Australia, 1 Victorian Railways B class unit (which was later repatriated and is now under restoration with Steamrail Victoria), 2 EMD SD35 units (one bought from Norfolk Southern and had a high hood, the other was bought from CSX and did not have a high hood), and a China Railways JS steam locomotive.

Overnight Fruit and Nut Oatmeal for the Crock Pot
Recipe by PalatablePastime
Easy to do overnight to have ready for the morning. Oats thicken on standing and can be kept in the refrigerator for the next day or two. Just add milk and stir until it loosens, then reheat in the microwave.
Top Review by annlouise
We eat steel-cut oats all the time, but this tasted very strange. We decided it might be the dried fruits permeating (and overwhelming) the flavor of the oats. Next time I think we would keep the dried fruits aside, adding them in the morning, and then just giving them a few minutes to plump. I do like the ease of doing it overnight in the crockpot.
See Discussion:3 Reviews
Ingredients Nutrition
- 4 1⁄2 cups water
- 1 cup steel cut oats

WARNING: The episode is "Detained," but the review is not -- so the spoilers are fresh.�
In brief: The analogy's a bit too blunt for my tastes, but it's a reasonably solid hour.�
"Detained" Enterprise Season 1, Episode 20 Teleplay by Mike Sussman & Phyllis Strong Story by Rick Berman & Brannon Braga Directed by David Livingston Brief summary: Archer and Mayweather find themselves in prison with several dozen Suliban, who are both more and less than they appear.
Trek, in pretty much any form, has often been known for its morality tales -- sometimes thickly cloaked, sometimes delivered with all the subtlety of mortar fire. It's no surprise, then, to see _Enterprise_ taking a cue from its predecessors. Where "Detained" tries to moralize, I think it falls a bit short of the mark -- but unlike some of its predecessors, it provides a fairly entertaining story along the way.
The story puts Archer and Mayweather in a prison camp after their shuttle is attacked by forces unknown. Although they initially believe the Suliban are their captors, they quickly discover that the detention camp is run by Colonel Grat (Dean Stockwell), a Tandarian -- and that the Suliban have been imprisoned by the Tandarians after the Suliban Cabal began attacking the Tandarians years ago. Archer finds this plausible enough, and Grat seems relatively civil and forthcoming ... but when he talks to one of his fellow prisoners, he discovers that the Suliban imprisoned with him are *not* members of the Cabal, but non-enhanced Suliban whose only crime is "being Suliban."
If your moralizing alarm is starting to flash warningly at you, it should: "Detained" is a rather conscious attempt to parallel the internment of Japanese-Americans in the U.S. after the attack on Pearl Harbor, and by extension to warn us not to let the same thing in the wake of September 11. (Why do I know it's conscious? Well, the fact that Archer explicitly mentions Manzanar to T'Pol tends to be a good hint as to the former, and I have difficulty picturing the latter as unconscious.) This is the second WW2 parallel I can think of in modern Trek history, the other being Voyager's "Jetrel" -- and while "Detained" is a far superior product to "Jetrel," it suffers from some of the same flaws.
Why does the moralizing not quite work? Probably because, like many people, I tend to resist being preached at, particularly if the moral is one that seems obvious to me. "Jetrel" was so obviously a Hiroshima parallel that you could almost draw a point-by-point comparison, and except for what it illustrated about Neelix, it was as a result crashingly dull to watch. (Besides, what was the message there: Hiroshima was a tragedy? Boy, there's ground-breaking social commentary there.) "Detained" falls victim to some of the same problems by making its points too bluntly -- the Suliban are all a little bit *too* benign and the Tandarans a bit too overeager to punish. I'll grant that the Tandarans you want in charge of the prison camp are not the ones likely to sympathize with their prisoners too much, but surely there are some Suliban who think the Cabal may be doing something right, for instance. Not only would it paint a more realistic picture, but it'd make for better drama.
Not only are the two sides painted a bit too clearly for the viewer, but it seems to take all of ten minutes for the sides to be crystal clear to Archer. Grat's argument that the Suliban are being held for their own protection, for instance, is something that could potentially carry some weight -- I'm not saying it's a particularly good justification for the Tandarans' actions, but by having Archer do nothing but scoff "oh, really?" at them it doesn't give the viewer a chance to decide: we're more or less told what to think.
Within those parameters, though, "Detained" manages to present something of a range of characters. Among the Suliban, there's Danik (Dennis Christopher), who while initially gruff is willing to talk to Archer when Archer shows he's interested in hearing another side to the story, and there's also Sajan (Christopher Shea), who latches on to the humans' initial reaction to Suliban and takes that as proof that the humans themselves can't be trusted. Among the Tandarans, Grat is clearly intelligent, civil, and manipulative, while Klev, one of the guards, is nothing more than a thug, and generally an uninteresting one at that.
Does "Detained" tell us anything new about our regular characters? Not particularly, unless you consider "Archer will pretty much move to right any wrong if he can, regardless of the risks" a stunning surprise. Apart from Archer and Mayweather, most of the regulars are little more than chess pieces -- Phlox, for example, gets about three lines and is only present to do a little cosmetic surgery. That's not necessarily a problem -- not every show can be as character- centered as, say, "Shuttlepod One" or "Dear Doctor" -- but when you combine a blunt morality tale with a dearth of new character insights, the storytelling better be awfully good if the show's to be worth the time.
Fortunately, most of the storytelling is pretty decent: "Detained" is at its best when considering strategies. Grat, for example, continually shifts the focus of his conversations with Archer in an attempt to get any sort of valuable information and to keep Archer off balance -- and once the Enterprise manages to find out where the prison camp is, much of the show focuses on Archer's plan to let all the prisoners escape from the prison and from Tandaran space.
The best thing about watching Grat's shift of focus is that you realize why he's stuck as commander of a prison rather than holding some high-ranking military position: the man is just not very good at this. The Tandaran intelligence service is clearly something to respect, given how much they found out about Archer and how quickly, but towards the end, when Grat wants to know what Archer knows, he gives a lot more information than he gets. (There's no need for him to mention, for example, the Temporal Cold War: if Archer *didn't* know anything about it, you've certainly gotten him interested in looking into it now.)
Archer's plan works a bit better, primarily because he's one of the Good Guys [TM], but it's also fun to watch because we're not privy to all the details in advance. Phlox is clearly doing cosmetic surgery on someone, but we don't know on whom or for what purpose; we quickly recognize T'Pol's stalling tactics for what they are, but aren't sure exactly what she's stalling about. We even see Trip beam something down, but come in at the end of the transport and thus don't know exactly what he's managed to slip into the camp while sensors were jammed. Director David Livingston is to be commended for making the show flow well around all that uncertainty, and the uncertainty itself was great fun. (One of my favorite such moments is back in TNG's "The Defector," when we discover that Picard's got three Klingon ships with him at precisely the same time the Romulans do. When it hangs together afterwards and is plausible, I do love being surprised.)
And although there were no character revelations, most of the characters came off fine for what they had to do. Of the guest cast, Grat and Danik came off as the most fully-rounded: Grat may be a villain, but he's also sincere in his beliefs about the camp, and while Danik is something of a stock "put-upon prisoner" character, he comes across as plausibly embittered as well. (I particularly liked the Tandaran nursery rhyme he recited.) Of the regulars, most of T'Pol's statements and reactions seemed a little off this week -- for instance, she was so decidedly un-Vulcan in her final conversation with Grat that I didn't see how she'd convince him of much of anything. (I was also amused by her "you have to live by other cultures' rules" speech, especially when she said that Archer would undoubtedly agree if he were here. Actually, I'm fairly certain he'd have disagreed emphatically with knees jerking all the while...) Most everyone else was fine, if under-utilized.
From an acting point of view, the big draw here was of course seeing Scott Bakula work opposite Dean Stockwell again after years of "Quantum Leap." I'll admit that I never particularly got into QL and so am not as familiar with their combined work as some (in fact, my two sharpest memories of Dean Stockwell are from the David Lynch films "Dune" and "Blue Velvet," and let's just say that this performance didn't remind me much of either one), but they played off one another here pretty well. Bakula still does better with quiet scenes than he does with angry ones (in particular, I thought the "this isn't about my rights, it's about theirs!" line came off as horribly forced), but Stockwell painted a pretty convincing portrait of Grat.
Other pretty convincing performances included Dennis Christopher (Danik) and Christopher Shea (Sajan), though the latter made it very easy to remember his role as a Vorta in DS9. I didn't buy David Kagan's guard much, though -- even lines like "unless you want to join him [in isolation], do as I say," which should carry a certain menace, came off as a bit flat. Of the regulars, Dominic Keating got to be a bit less staid than usual, which was fun, (even if I doubt he fooled many viewers when Reed was disguised as a Suliban), and Anthony Montgomery was fine if uneven. (His initial "that's not true!" when Sajan confronts him about his prejudice seemed weak, though his return speech an act or so later made up for it.)
As for the ending, I'm a little bit perplexed -- not by Archer's inability to answer what will become of the escapees, but by the actual fate of some of them. The last we saw of Danik, he was pinned down in a firefight and Sajan decided to go back and help him -- but then we see all the ships launching. Since no one seems to be upset over the loss of a ringleader (or wondering what Danik's daughter would do without a father), I'm assuming both men survived -- but I feel as though a scene verifying that was cut for time or something. Things felt even more unresolved than I think they were intended to, and that's not so good.
Other quick thoughts:
-- I'm wondering about the long-term impact of the series a bit more. The Suliban are clearly not a fly-by-night villain: they have significant enough impact over a sector to affect other races' politics. As a result, I'm starting to wonder why no one in later centuries ever mentions them.
-- I also think that Grat's extensive information is something that needs to be followed up in some way. Either the Tandaran intelligence service is of Obsidian Order level and needs to be a concern, or Archer's actions are all *WAY* too public.
-- I did like the "kill him with kindness" strategy used to overload Grat's sensors: just send down the entire Earth historical database. Fun.
-- Poor John Billingsley: he got into full makeup for what, three lines?
-- If you want a good example of a "sledgehammer Trek morality tale" that nonetheless works, I'd personally go with TNG's "The Drumhead." It's about as clear-cut a McCarthyism parallel as you could want, but everything builds so gradually that it's also eerily easy to see how such a situation could arise now.
-- So the Suliban homeworld's been uninhabitable for 300 years. One wonders if we'll see more detail on that sometime down the line. (I wouldn't be surprised.)
That more or less does it. I feel a bit as though "Detained" was so concerned with getting me to think the Right Things that it got in the way of me thinking much at all, but the characters were generally real enough and the story solid enough to keep the hour going smoothly. It's not one to come back to again and again, but I've seen far worse.
So, in sum:
Writing: I like my metaphors laden on a bit less thickly, thanks -- but solid enough plotting in terms of schemes. Directing: Livingston kept things moving well, though I do wonder about the confusion at the end. Acting: Kagen was unconvincing and Montgomery was a bit uneven, but most everyone else was fine.
Overall: 7. Fine once, to be sure.
Okay, who let the Jell-O mold achieve sentience?

First to see the first 2 tops I made for the Month of Tops sew along click here: My TOPS
Now.... I took this pic last week. I actually fished it TODAY! I have never quilted before... not really.... which is kinda wrong since my mom is a quilter! But I've always been more into clothing and I would have never made this if it wasn't our project/class for Pfaff club at sewing Machine etc. here in Knoxville. You know what... I loved making it! It was fun! Relaxing, even!!
Here's a closer look at my sad quilting! But its good for a 1st timer!! I think..... lol!! We embellished the pumpkins using decorative stitches, couching, buttons, rhinestones... whatever! Lots of fun! I can't wait till our next class!
Purses... I was in much need of purses this year. As you know if you've been reading my blog for long I'm not a fan of making purses... but the purses I want to buy cost stupid money. So yeah, I make my purses!
The purse below is the L2 Bag by sewing workshop. Made from upholstery fabric I bought... somewhere ;-) embellished with beads and chains from jo anns.
I wanted a purse big enough for my laptop, a crochet project and all my other purse essentials.. this purse fit the bill.... perfect for traveling! plus I think its cute. Its full of all different sizes of pockets!!
This purse is Circle Bag from Square Rose. I was looking for this shape of bag after seeing a few Chanel bags from the Couture winter collection. Karl's bags were a bit bigger and made of faux fur (which I would like to do before winter is over!) they had a draw string appearance on the runway but without seeing up close and personal I have no clue if they were! But this pattern fit the shape I was looking for. Good pattern too!!
CROCHET! How I LOVE my crochet! Some nights I crochet until my hand hurts (which is a really really long time! ) and I still can't stop (Bald Man says theres something wrong with me...)
I finished this a couple of months ago... it was meant to be worn this summer.... on cool nights on a patio somewhere... It didn't quite make it. But next spring/summer.. it'll be ready!
Now this is part of my fall/winter wardrobe! AND I made up this pattern!!! and I have no ideal what I did..... because I didn't write anything down..... but still I'm extremely happy with this! And though I hate cold weather I am looking forward to it being cold enough to wear this!!! Its really cute with a tank top or turtle neck

[easyazon_image align="left" height="300″ identifier="B00OB7K46I" locale="US" src="https://www.jtpedals.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/51icBKOJkqL.jpg" tag="jtspedals-20″ width="500″]There are many respected brand names in the guitar equipment industry and Boss is certainly one of them. It has consistently delivered products of high quality that come in prices affordable and accessible to guitar players worldwide. Of its entire range of products, my favorite would be the Boss RC-1 Loop Station which offers a lot of versatility but still manages to be simple and user-friendly. It is the looper of choice I recommend to guitar players who are just starting out with experimentation because it is straightforward and easy to to operate.
Build and Features
This compact looper offers excellent sound quality at a maximum recording capability of a whooping 12 full minutes! That is more than 200% of the current standard in other looping devices and allows for better experimentation! It has a circular loop indicator that provides all the necessary information while you are looping and recording. The indicator has 24 multi-colored LEDs that give instant feedback on the current operation mode plus the running time of the current loop. The loop session is stored in a memory that remains intact even when the power is off, allowing you to resume where you left off the next time you want to practice of perform. it can run up to 4.5-hour with its attached battery and is perfectly compact. it is the best companion for street performances, nightly gigs, or even just random jamming and open-mic sessions. Of course, you can always play it with the Boss PSA-120s power adapter that is the current industry-standard for a durable and reliable power adapter.
It is compact, measuring only 5.12 inches in diameter, 2.8 inches wide and barely an inch high. This is a perfect addition to your traveling gear and won't take up much space in your storage.
The RC-1 has both stereo inputs and outputs and a nominal input level of -20 dBu. It has an output impedance of 1k Ohm and a recommended load impedance of 10K Ohms or graters. The controls come with a pedal switch and a level knob and come with Check and Loop indicators. It has an aggregate weight of only 440g with the battery attached that makes it lightweight, compact and easy to use. The unit comes with a handy and informative user manual and battery upon purchase.
Performance and Sound
The Boss RC-1 Loop Station was designed with bassists and guitarists in mind and this shows in the build and performance of the unit. I was very satisfied with the way the compact pedal case let me handle loop creation without much hassle nor complicated controls to content with. The looping functions are all available by using just the integrated pedal switch. I was able to record, play back and stop, overdub, redo or undo, and delete loops just by manipulating the foot pedal. Of course, this required a bit of practice on my part but once I got the hang of it, using the foot pedal just felt natural and intuitive.
Build and Reliability
The Boss brand is known for its durability and reliability and this is the same for this particular product. The exterior looks polished and solid and actual usage for a couple of hours showed no signs of early wear-and-tear.
The Verdict
The RC-1 is a good purchase all in all. Even first-timers will have fun trying this tuner because with practice, it becomes extremely easy to manage and use. The long playback time and recording time combined with decent battery life makes it ideal for gigs and outdoor performance. The Boss brand is a leader in the industry and with this product, it is not difficult to understand why. Credit is due to Boss, too, for pricing this model modestly, making it accessible and affordable for all guitar players who want to experience high quality without sacrificing half month's budget in guitar equipment. Perhaps it sounds like ridiculous pun, but it truly is boss.

Clinton Wall Trunk
Circa 1890
|I came upon this trunk while
vacationing on the east coast of Canada in a little town called
Hartland New Brunswick, home of the longest covered bridge in the
world. It's an amazing experience crossing it, If you ever get there
try it. Click the link for more about Hartland NB
|The trunk did not look anything like this when I bought it from the local Hartland antique store. It was covered in a green canvas. This was my first wall trunk, I picked up three during that trip. When it comes to trunks, the greatest invention of all was the wall trunk. Clinton Wall Trunks are probably the most popular, best known and most difficult to find simply because when you have one, you want to keep it. It's more convenient than most trunks and certainly more practical in tight quarters, you never have to pull it away from the wall to open it and with large trunks like this one, that's a real bonus.
|I particularly like the fancy Clinton hinge, photo bottom right, Patented Feb.25th 1890, it keeps the lid open straight up without the need for a lid stay and less likely to fall shut accidentally.
|Complete with all it's original hardware ,the lock works and comes with a key.
|New custom leather handles as with all my trunks
|Lots of storage space inside with a new half tray not quite as fancy as the original but very functional anyway and with three (3) compartments. I like these half trays, they allow access to the bottom of the trunk without lifting out the tray, another great idea.
|The color of the lining is best described as Denim blue
Ignore the sun flash, bottom left corner
( 24" high ) x ( 22" wide ) x ( 34"long )
Shipping, packaging, and insurance fees are extra.
|We strongly urge you to shop around and compare quality as well as price. You just won't find trunks like these anywhere else. Truly one-of-a-kind. Refinished to last forever.

An unholy ritual, a ticking clock. Four children discover there are things that go bump in the night …
Centuries ago a group of Elves committed an unholy ritual. But the ritual was a spectacular failure. It transformed the Elves into the Noctivagi – the beings we know as vampires.Striving to maintain a fragile peace, the ancient Elves and Dwarves negotiated an Accord, which they've renewed every year on the Summer Solstice. The ceremony depends on the magical Rune Stone, but it's missing. If it is not found—and quickly—the consequences could be dire, and not just for Elves and Dwarves.Four children, Rob, Jack, Eleanor, and Flora, stumble into a world of magic and mayhem when they move into Black Ledge, the old estate on the Maine coast, and discover they aren't the only ones who live there.
Throughout her entire life, Ella has heard voices. Voices inside her head. She's never given much thought as to why she has this gift… or this curse, depending on which way you look at it. It's not until she meets the mysterious Jonah that she begins to question her inherited abilities as a Soul Seer.Learning to deal with loss and love, Ella manages to live a seemingly normal life… or so she thought."Rene Folsom puts a new twist in the concept of 'soul mate', taking our romantic notions to an eerily-desirable level of love, lust, and—quite possibly—lunacy!"— Jayce Grayson, Author of "Xianne: A Comedy of Cultures""Rene Folsom's imagination takes us on a mind blowing ~ soul shattering journey.

This novelette is roughly 7200 words and contains a hot sexual triad between two female roommates and their Valentine's Day boy toy. **Have you ever wanted something you know you shouldn't? That forbidden fruit. A temptation that will surely lead you down the path of illicit indulgence, and ultimately, pleasure beyond your wildest imaginations.That was the daily torture Samantha put herself through when she thought of her roommate, Kara. Sitting alone on Valentine's Day, Sam found comfort in sharing her innermost secrets with her trusty journal while lusting over the brown-eyed goddess. At least until Kara comes home with a sizzling hot man and a night full of naughty games that would even make cupid blush.
