Plea deal may be close in Puna man's slaying
By JOHN BURNETT
Tribune-Herald staff writer
Robert "Johnny" Leong lived in a converted shipping container in Puna's Eden Roc subdivision, but a childhood friend told the Tribune-Herald last year that he was "a ladies' man." His appetite for other men's women may have led to the January 2012 killing of the container Casanova, according to court documents filed by police.
An acquaintance of the 52-year-old Leong told police that in late December 2011, Leong had shown him cellphone photographs of a naked woman. The man said Leong had told him that he was having a sexual relationship with the woman and that the woman was the girlfriend of Leong's neighbor, Walter Boyd Bremmer.
Deputy Prosecutor Mike Kagami said Monday that a plea bargain is in the works for the 49-year-old Bremmer, who's charged with second-degree murder, first-degree robbery and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony. Kagami declined to reveal details of the deal since it hadn't been finalized. Bremmer, whose trial was scheduled to start on Monday, could change his plea at a hearing scheduled for April 5 at 10:30 a.m. before Hilo Circuit Judge Greg Nakamura.
Leong's body was discovered on Jan. 28 in the back yard of his Palainui Avenue home "with some type of cord wrapped around his neck and tied to a floor joist of the residence," documents state. Police say Leong also had multiple gunshot wounds to the head.
Bremmer and his girlfriend, Cynthia Villella, had been granted a temporary restraining order against Leong on Jan. 23, five days before Leong's body was found by his landlord, Lloyd Dela Cruz, and three days before police believe the slaying occurred. Dela Cruz told police that Leong had been living in the converted container since December 2011, after Leong's trailer had burned down. The previously mentioned acquaintance told police that Leong believed Bremmer and Villella's son were responsible for the trailer fire, according to documents.
Documents state that Villella told police Bremmer had informed her he entered Leong's home without permission and shot and strangled Leong.
Another acquaintance also told police that Leong had shown him cellphone photographs of a naked woman, according to documents. The man said Leong told him the woman was from Waimea and that Leong was having a sexual relationship with her while the woman's husband was on Oahu.
This isn't the first time Bremmer has been linked to a homicide. Prosecutors in Washington state granted him immunity for his testimony against another man, Erin Rieman, in the 2009 beating and strangulation death of 53-year-old fishing boat owner John Adkins of Albany, Ore.
According to the The Daily News of Longview, Wash., Bremmer told authorities that Rieman, who was Bremmer's business partner, came back to the boat, the Tiger, on July 5, 2009, after a night of bar-hopping in Ilwaco, Wash., and attacked Adkins in the boat's pilot house. He said that Rieman, who was hired to be the boat's captain due to Adkins' inexperience, put Adkins' head through a window and threw him down a staircase into the galley. He said that Rieman then choked Adkins to death with a yellow extension cord.
Police said that Rieman and Bremmer, a deckhand on the boat, dumped Adkins' body at sea the following day. The body has never been found.
Rieman, who was originally charged with second-degree murder, pleaded guilty to manslaughter and was sentenced to 11 years in prison in May 2010. At his sentencing, Rieman, then 48, told Adkins' family that he did not kill Adkins, but accepted the punishment because he failed to prevent the slaying. He didn't accuse Bremmer, but according to police, Rieman and Bremmer were the only people present during the homicide.
The prosecutor in the case said he offered Bremmer immunity for his testimony because Bremmer admitted only to helping to dispose of Adkins' body, a gross misdemeanor punishable by up to 364 days in jail.
Bremmer is in custody without bail at Hawaii Community Correctional Center.

In this tiled kitchen, designed by House & Garden's decoration director Gabby Deeming, 'paper tiles' wallpaper by Louise Body has been applied to the walls, which at £20 a meter acts as a cost-effective substitute to retiling the whole room. This is contrasted with the real ceramic tiles used on the kitchen island - white 'Architecture' tiles by Fired Earth and cement encaustic tiles in various patterns from Carocim Tiles. The look is softened by the addition of a Green Oak worktop by Whetstone Oak, and mid-century modern seating by Bo Concept.
Taken from the January 2012 issue of House & Garden. Styling: Gabby Deeming.

BARRY Island parkrun's numbers continue to hold up well into 2017, with a 13th successive three-figure field, as 141 runners tackled the 5k course this week.
This was the 98th parkrun and the organisers are hoping for big turn-out to mark their 100th event on March 25, which could also see the 10,000th finisher over the line and 50,000th kilometre chalked up.
There are also reports of an attempt at the course record being planned.
Before setting the runners off, the day's run director, Lyn Evans, presented a certificate to the men's points league table topper, Robert Newman.
Despite being absent for the last few weeks with an injury, Robert had run consistently well since May 2016 to accumulate 3,325 points by the end of February.
Amongst the 141 participants who ran, jogged or walked the course, were 13 first timers and representatives of 14 different clubs.
Thirty-three runners set a new course best time, including visitor Geoff Partridge (20:25), Mark Harris (23:04), junior Evan Warburton (25:17), Emma Arscott (26:16), Helen Archer, who broke 30 minutes for the first time with 29:44 and Evan Quick (34:50). Run director Claire Thorne clearly enjoyed her run and set a new PB of 46:32.
Junior runners dominated the top placings this week. They took the first three overall places and two of the first three female places.
Alfie Davies (JM15-17) was first over the line in 19:28, his second time in five appearances. Thomas Lowrie (JM15-17) was in second place with a time of 19:45, just ahead of Tom Waters (JM11-14) who clocked his first sub-20 minute time and set a new PB of 19:49.
Louise Flynn was first female (11th overall) over the line in 21:07 - her eighth time in 10 appearances. Caitlin Williams (JW11-14) of SMR (Barry) was second female finisher in 23:15 and Harriet Kehl (JW11-14) was third over the line in 24:16.
Tom Waters (JM11-14) topped the age grades scores this week with 75 per cent. Malcolm Bradley (VM65-69), from Penarth and Dinas Runners, was just behind with 74.4 per cent for his time of 22:46, with Paul Kehl third. Paul's 74.1 per cent score corresponded to a time 20:13 - a new PB.
As the week's results illustrate with a 50-plus year age gap between the runners with the top two scores, age grading is a good way for runners of different ages to be able compare their times with each other and against benchmarks for their age.
With family groups increasingly running together too, age grades mean that the different generations and genders can compare their times alongside each others' and set group, as well as individual, improvement targets.
Barry Island parkrun is a free, weekly 5k timed run and is open to anyone of any ability from age four upwards - runners, joggers or walkers alike.
It starts at 9am every Saturday morning at Barry Island promenade, normally under the Eastern shelter.
Find out more on the run website at parkrun.org.uk/barryisland
It's entirely organised by volunteers. Anyone wishing to help out can get in touch by sending an email to firstname.lastname@example.com
After 98 Barry Island parkruns, 2,303 different runners, including participants from 202 athletics clubs, have completed 9,702 runs covering a total distance of 48,510km. There have been 2,027 new personal bests. They have been supported by 330 different volunteers in 2,146 roles. There are 1,581 runners who've registered Barry Island parkrun as their home parkrun.

Standard Markdown Controversy →— ♣
This is one of the better blogs I've read summarizing the recent Markdown controversy. I pretty much agree with all of it, but I wanted to emphasize a few points.
Jeff Atwood has, as a coder, completely missed, an din fact tried to subvert, the purpose of Markdown, in my opinion. Markdown is intended to be a tool for writers. It is not, as originally conceived, a tool for developers. In fact, its very nature makes the lives of those writing conversion tools difficult specifically because it is intended to make writers' lives easier. It moves the burden of composition, mainly for the web, off the shoulders of writers and puts it squarely on implementers.
The creation of "Standard Markdown", now dubbed "Common Markdown" following the uproar, sought to transfer that burden back to writers, and it did this by attempting to redefine what canonical Markdown is, as well as its intended purpose.
As someone who enjoys both writing prose and developing software, I can be sympathetic to the difficulties that developers face when writing tools to convert Markdown to other formats, but I'm also strongly in the camp that, generally speaking, it is a developer's job to make life easier for the end user, even if that means more work for the developer.
Markdown, in a real sense, is a platform to build upon. It is a solid foundation for plain text prose that happens to be very useful for converting to more complex formats. Building new or expanded variations on top of it is an extraordinarily useful endeavor; subverting it into something less useful and extensible is harmful to the community that has sprung up around Markdown. By choosing the name "Standard Markdown", Atwood was clearly attempting to accomplish the latter.

After leaving Tesla a month ago, James Chen, former Vice President of Regulatory Affairs and Deputy General Counsel, has joined upstart EV competitor Faraday Future as their new Vice President of Government Relations & General Counsel. Chen had taken a leading role in Tesla's ongoing and frequent battles with state governments. His hiring by Faraday would seem to indicate that the company is expecting a similar legal fight to open their own corporate stores in states like Connecticut and Michigan where car manufacturers are barred from owning car dealerships. Faraday hasn't publicly committed one way or another to how they will sell vehicles.
Prior to joining Faraday, Chen worked at the Environmental and two law firms. He joined Tesla in 2010, and was elevated to Vice President in 2013. His new position at Faraday is expected to be very much the same as his previous work at Tesla.
Chen is far from the first high profile Tesla employee to move to Faraday. He's following in the footsteps of Nick Sampson (formerly Tesla Director of Vehicle and Chassis Engineering, now Faraday SVP), Tom Wessner (formerly Tesla Director of Purchasing, now Faraday VP of Supply Chain), and Alan Cherry (formerly Tesla Human Resources Senior Director, now Faraday VP of Human Resources).

About Formulary 55
Hello there! Thanks for stopping by. This is where you get our sweet smelling story.
Cordelia started making bath and body products out of her kitchen back in 1993 and sold them at Farmer's Markets. Back then the company was called Essential Soaps, and she even made the paper the soap bars were wrapped in! The business took off and soon a larger manufacturing facility was needed. She found the perfect little spot in Old Burien, Washington for $400 a month and opened up a shop called, Sweet Petula. It was a wonderful little shop supported by loyal customers - many who still use our products today. Fast forward many years, a few new businesses (Grassroots Home & Garden, Good Clean Dog), much higher rents…..and in 2012 Formulary 55 was born.
At Formulary 55 we make not only our products, (wholesale is about 70% of the business) but also sell and showcase lines we love, made by people a lot like us. In April of 2014 we decided to shake things up and move the business from our long time home of Seattle to sunny Colorado. We bought a 115 year old brick building and Anthony left his job at Microsoft to oversee the renovations of our new manufacturing facility. In August 2014, the first floor was complete and ready for us to move operations to Colorado.
We are now up and running in our new Pueblo, Colorado facility where we live and work in the same building.
Business is growing at lightning speed and we've hired a great crew here in our new home. We started as a hand-made company and it's important to us that we remain a hand-made company even as we grow. We're just getting started, and yet you can already find Formulary 55 products in 800+ retail stores spanning 17 countries!
Soon we'll be adding some updates that will give you a more personal insight into our team and Colorado operations so please check back. And, don't forget to follow us on Instagram & Facebook
All the best,
Cordelia & Anthony

My most profound apologies, Janet. I thought I replied to your question, but obviously, I was wrong.
First of all - good for you in taking care of the cats that were dumped on your property. Not everyone would go the extra mile that you've done.
Secondly - I respectfully disagree with Hannah Riley. While cats are independent creatures, they most DEFINITELY need shelter, especially in the winter. Depending on where you live, it can make a huge difference in a cat's life whether they have proper shelter or not. There's a statistic Alleycat Allies puts out - outside, feral cats only live on average for 3-4 years. Most of this is due to NOT having proper food, fresh water AND proper shelter.
There are several places to get an igloo - you might try Amazon or PetCo. Also, make sure you provide fresh water & food on a daily basis.

Igloos are not warm by no means for any animal,I usually put loads of hay around the Igloo then put a tarp with an opening in it for entrance an exit,be sure to tack the tarp down good with maybe big heavy rocks etc.,I would also put a cats bed or a couple old towels in for further warmth an comfort,I found at wal-mart a heated water bowl,I'm not sure if they have them now or not maybe try a few pets stores but they work wonders,also great for keeping cats can food warm in bad winter months.I cannot sleep well if I knew an animal is out side in freezing cold weather and hungry.Good luck

Thanks for RSVPing, Hannah. Here's some background info. Two cats were "dumped" on a nearby property. These 2 showed up at my door starving. Not used to being outdoors. I fed them and got them to the nearest shelter. They are filled and overfilled to capacity. Would only agree to neuter/spay and have the vet give both cats required immunizations, but I had to pick them up, which I did. Also got a cat carrier, put in a blanket and found the male cat asleep in it. I am HIGHLY allergic to cats and MUST keep them outdoors (also the reason why I never owned a cat before). Other cat owners said I really needed to provide them an outdoor igloo and a water source (heated birdbath) for the cold winters. They are NOT declawed and are nowhere near a road. If you think that I've done all I should (and can) and don't need to do more, then I'll take your advice. I have named the male cat Rigel after one of the 3 brightest stars in Orion the Hunter constellation and have named the female Lyra after Lyra the Lyre constellation. Both seen in fall/winter. Have a theme going!

I don't know what you mean by outdoor igloos? If you mean a house like dog's have, then I don't think that those are really necessary. Cats are very independent animals, and I seriously doubt they will sleep where they are supposed to. haha.
Umm...I just say have food that is accessible, keep them away from roads, expect little treats of lizards and dead mice on your porch, don't get them declawed, and get them fixed so that they won't get pregnant or others pregnant! It is quite the problem these days:)

|SalesVantage.com >> Article Archives >> Public Relations >> Do People Read Your Letters?
A few weeks back I opened a letter from a cleaning firm. It was a "Dear Building Manager" message, introducing their services. They may be a fine firm, and probably would do an outstanding job, but what stood out to me (and could scare other businesses away) was that it was too long! One full page in 12-point font, providing all kinds of company background and a menu of their services.
My immediate advice to them: wrong.
Want to send a power letter? One that will stand out? Follow these two basic rules: Be personal, and be brief
The best letters open with a punch. "That was a terrific meeting!" Use punctuation to highlight key words. Follow that with three or four sentences, tops. "Thank you for your candid comments, as it makes my planning far more effective."
A personal comment helps you connect as a person, not just a supplier. I like to make a direct reference to something in which the customer expressed interest ("and helping you stay competitive is obviously important.") or a piece of small talk we had ("and I will take you up on that golf invitation"). These have a specific purpose: they add a strong, personal touch that shows you were paying attention and weren't just there for the sale. These comments have an even greater impact when they're added to the letter as a hand-written post script.
I'm not a huge fan of Introduction Letters, "the kind that are mailed in advance of an initial phone call. They're very hit-and-miss. By many estimates, they never reach the eyes of the prospect. Plus, you can't get very personal in a letter of introduction ("Hey Joe" would not have worked for the cleaning company). I do know salespeople who use them, and with great success. (I'll pass along some of their secrets in a future column.)
And, of course, don't forget brevity. Brief is best. The history of your company might be important to you, and might be an eventual selling point, but leave it out.
A short, crisp letter, with punch and personality, will get read and remembered.
Ps to the cleaning firm: Thanks, really, but I empty my own wastebasket. Sometimes my wife makes me clean the bathrooms, too.

Need help with printing slides for projection
I am looking to print photos on a transparency that will be used for an overhead projection like application. Based on my understanding, for printing regular photos anything above 300 (or may be 600) dpi does not provide much value. However, given that my transparencies will be magnified (through a lens) 30x-50x I would like to print at the highest dpi possible. If you are curious this is what my project is:
I am not familiar with the nuances of digital printing. I do have high resolution pictures (10MP+) so I expect to have enough ppi for my final image given that the image will be less. I need help figuring out how to prepare the image for highest resolution printing and where to get them printed.. I do not own a printer so I expect to use retail photo labs (cvs/walgreens/online) or potentially a buy a printer if needed.
Thanks for your help!

Marjorie Vineyard Pinot Noir Accolades
2014 Vintage
96 Points – 2014 Marjorie Vineyard Pinot Noir, Eola-Amity Hills
"Moderately light reddish purple color in the glass. The nose offers a whole cluster delight of back cherry, rose petal, cinnmon, and exotic spice aromas. The whole cluster also embellishes the palate that features a mid-weight core of succulet, well-spiced cherry fruit that is flat-out delicious. Welcome balance with silky tannins and juicy acidity, finishing with a lengthy stream of spiced cherry and raspberry fruits. Even better the following day when tasted from a previously opened and re-corked bottle showing more power and depth and an even more gorgeous finish."
- Pinot File
94 Points – 2014 Marjorie Vineyard Pinot Noir, Eola-Amity Hills
"Vivid red. Sexy, intensely perfumed cherry, boysenberry and floral pastille scents are complemented by hints of cola, rhubarb and Asian spices."
- Josh Raynolds, Vinous Media
93 Points – 2014 Marjorie Vineyard Pinot Noir, Eola-Amity Hills
"Lovely richness and decadence to this on the nose with plum, cholocate and violet charachter plus hints of violets. Medium to full bod, silky tannins and a savory finish. Hints of hazelnuts."
- Jamessuckling.com
91 Points - 2014 Marjorie Vineyard Pinot Noir, Eola-Amity Hills
"This matches deep purple fruits to aggressive herb and stem flavors. The impression is that some percentage of whole clusters were included in the ferment. This definitely needs extra bottle age- put it away until 2020."
- Paul Gregutt, Wine Enthusiast
2013 Vintage
93 Points – 2013 Marjorie Vineyard Pinot Noir, Eola-Amity Hills
"This complex wine shows a whiff of stem from 37% whole-cluster fermentation, and quickly moves into a soft center, loaded with strawberry preserves. It coats the mouth, smooth and textural with graphite highlights. The tannins are substantial and suggest it's worth tucking into the cellar for a few more years. Drink through 2020."
- Paul Gregutt, Wine Enthusiast
93 Points — 2013 Marjorie Vineyard Pinot Noir, Eola-Amity Hills
"Brilliant ruby-red. Exotic, highly expressive aromas of raspberry liqueur, Asian spices, cola and smoky minerals, with a swave floral overtone building in the glass. Sweet and penetrating on the palate, offering intense red and dark berry and spicecake flavors given spine by juicy acidity. A distinctly elegant, seamless Pinot Noir with superb finishing energy; the gentle tannins are quickly absorbed by the wine's vibrant fruit. A standout of its vintage. Drinking window: 2019-2024."

Why You Need More Than Just Your Regular Conditioner
You hair's begging you to give it the moisture and strength it needs to be (and look) healthy. That's where a deep conditioner comes in. Here are three (yes, only three!) convincing reasons why the miracle product is just the thing you need.
Reason No. 1: Regular Conditioner Isn't Cutting It
OK, so those bottles you use every day have a purpose, but it's different from a deep treatment. "Your everyday conditioner is one that's formulated to be used regularly without building up on the hair shaft," says David Pirrotta, founder of David Pirrotta Brands, an online distributor of beauty and grooming brands in the US including Sachajuan, Grown Alchemist, and David Mallett. "They tend to rinse well and leave hair hydrated but not weighed down." On the other hand, a deep conditioner really knows how to penetrate strands. "Deep conditioner is thicker in consistency and is meant to be left on for a longer period of time—the ingredients, oftentimes plant-based oils, are intended to penetrate the hair shaft, making for longer-lasting conditioned hair."
Reason No. 2: It's a Once-a-Week Commitment
This stuff isn't high-maintenance, people! "I recommend using a deep conditioner once a week," Pirrotta says. "Use it ahead of a long relaxing soak in the tub, or in the shower while you're exfoliating and shaving. The steam from the shower will heat up the product, which allows it to seamlessly seep into strands. Speaking of heat, you can pretty much make a conditioner work for you in, let's just say, extreme situations. "You could even try using one ahead of your favorite gym class," Pirrotta adds. Bold move? Sure, but it's worth a try. Massage it into your hair, throw it up in a bun (if it's of length) and get to sweating—then wash it out during your post-workout shower.
Reason No. 3: You Don't Have to Be a Certain *Type*
If you've got hair, then you qualify for a deep, luxurious conditioning. "All hair types can benefit from using a deep conditioner," Pirrotta says. "Especially those that endure heat styling on a regular basis." The magic product can help target split ends, frizzy strands, and help boost flat, lifeless hair.
Now that you know a little more about deep conditioners, go out and get one stat!

The following is a guest post by Kevin Fleming. Kevin runs CreditShout, a personal finance blog dedicated to educating people on how to manage their finances and save money with credit cards.
Credit card companies have come under fire for targeting college students. Everyone from The U.S. Public Interest Research Group (report in PDF format) to Newsweek and Fortune have lamented the aggressive marketing tactics that colleges use to try to lure teens in. However, while these student cards may be bad news for some students, if you know how to use them wisely, you can beat creditors at their own game and come out of college ahead.
Beat The Credit Card Company At Their Own Games
There are two steps to beating the credit card companies and coming out ahead of the creditors by the time you graduate from college. The first step is to choose a card wisely and the second step is to use it responsibly.
Choosing The Right Card
There are plenty of student credit cards available, and each of the lenders offering these cards is eager to win your business. Studies have shown that American's are intensely brand loyal, and as a result, many people will hold on to their student card (or get an "adult" card from the same lender) long after their college days. As a result, some creditors offer generous incentives in the form of rewards programs or other freebies.
For example, Discover offers a rewards card, the Discover Student Card which pays you a percentage of your purchases in the form of cash back. Numerous other lenders do as well. Others focus on offering you an incentive to sign up in the first place; for example, some lenders have offered cash for opening and using a card, or even free airline tickets targeted towards spring-breakers who may want to apply.
Evaluate the rewards program to determine if it is right for you. For example, if one student card offers you a higher percentage of cash back on gas than on groceries, this may be a great bet if you are on your campus meal plan but drive home every weekend.
Make sure that you don't just get caught up in cool rewards. You will also need to consider the annual fee, if there is one. Most of the time, getting a card with an annual fee is a bad idea. However, some cards- such as those offered by American Express- offer more generous rewards programs in exchange for you having to pay such a fee. Make sure that if your car does charge, the rewards program is better than other cards without a fee and that you'll be using the card enough to make up for the cost of the fee through rewards earned. Most of all, don't just choose the card offering free pizza on the quad, unless or until you've compared the rewards and incentives that card offers with other good student credit cardsa on the market.
Using the Card Wisely
Using the card in a smart way is also key to beating the creditors at their own game. In addition to brand loyalty, credit card companies also target college kids because they believe that college kids may not be financially responsible, and that they may have financially responsible parents who will bail them out when it comes to paying the bill.
Don't be one of those kids. Use your credit card, but use it wisely. Ideally, if you can be disciplined and responsible, you should charge absolutely everything on your card. This means that if you and your friends go out for pizza, grab the cash from your buddies and pay the bill. This way, you'll get the full amount of the bill counting towards your rewards points or cash back. Charge the expensive books you need, the meal plan, or even your tuition if you can.
However, and this is a BIG however, you should only charge things you have the cash for and you should never ever carry a balance. Carrying a balance negates all the benefit you get from rewards cards, and can end up costing you hundreds (or thousands) of dollars in interest if you make only minimum payments. If you can't pay back the purchase in full, either don't buy it, or in the case of necessities such as books and tuition, consider alternative and lower interest rate sources of funding such as student loans to make the purchase.
So, make sure you charge as much as you can, but make sure you pay your bill in full each and every month. If you are in the habit of charging absolutely everything, you may, in fact, want to make payments many more times than once a month. For example, if you bought that pizza and all your friends gave you cash, put the cash in the back the next day and immediately pay your credit card bill. That way, you won't be tempted to spend the cash on something else. This is easy to do with online banking, and you'll still get both the rewards and the credit building benefits, without the penalty of paying interest.

A well collected painter/photographer/printmaker as well as an award-winning playwright.
Art is different from illustration, decoration or craft in that in each object created by an individual artist, a piece of himself/herself is clearly visible. The creating of the object in some way changes the artist and this change is felt by the observer. Art doesn't have to be pretty, but it can be. Art doesn't have to be shocking, but it may be. Art doesn't have to be found in a gallery or museum and it doesn't have to be expensive. Art is worth what you are willing to pay for the pleasure of owning it, or what you are willing to pay to keep someone else from owning it, or what the artist is willing to take to give it up. There is value in illustration, decoration and craft. There just isn't the same personal investment.

What is the length of stride and pace while marching in formation?
30" step, 112-120 steps/min
agree with 30 " step but rate was 120 steps per minute when I in the USMC. Same pace all of Sousa's(who was the leader of the USMC Band {The President's Own}for many years) March Songs were written to be played 4/4
I agree with the 120 per, as it is what I was taught at Parris Island in 85. However, I took my answer straight from the USMC Drill and Ceremonies Manual. Granted, it was the first result google gave me. It also said 12", 15", or 30" steps.
Retired Air Force here. What exactly is "marching in formation?"
Formation is that box thing you all line up in to receive blanket awards
It's correct, remember it's close order drill and ceremonies and without going into too much detail pace and stride will change depending on the occasion such as passing a reviewing stand or a funeral march.
I thought i remembered 30" , 120 / mnute from boot camp
I'll right I will go into more detail. 120 with a thirty inch step works fine when you're marching in a straight line but nothing including parade review is in a straight line. When the maneuvering element is on the march and a move to a ninety degree angle in a uniform manner is needed the proper command is "column right... march". It's a two part command with column right being the preparatory command and march being the execution command. On the command march the element leader and guide execute a movement of pivot with the element leader taking 24 inch strides the guide marches ahead with 30 inch strides so he over takes the element leader. The rest of the column pivots where the guide did but if the entire column kept taking 30 inch strides they couldn't maintain cover, alignment nor 40 inches back to chest.
It's like runners running around a track, the distance the outside squads of the column have to travel further so they maintain a 30 inch stride the inside squads of the column must shorten their stride so cover and alignment and distance may be retained so the inside most element cuts their stride to 12 inches but maintain cadence by lifting the legs higher. The next squad from the inside also shortens their stride but to maintain cover, alignment, and distance the cut their stride to 15 inch strides but maintain cadence by lifting their knees higher than the outside of the column but not as high as the inside of the column. This way the outer most squads can cover more ground than the inner most squads and still maintain cover, alignment, and 40 inches back to chest.
It's easy if you don't confuse stride with cadence.

HOUSTON (ICIS)--Ashland is seeking higher North American prices for butanediol (BDO) and other intermediates and specialty solvents, effective on 1 July or as contracts allow, the company said on Wednesday.
Prices for 1, 4 butanediol (BDO) and its downstream solvent derivatives will increase by 5 cents/lb ($110/tonne).
BDO contracts in North America are negotiated quarterly with buyers and negotiations for the third quarter will start in a few days.
Most North American producers have announced increases for Q3 contracts despite a recent decline in feedstock costs.
Buyers will point to upcoming new supply in North America and lower feedstock costs to fight the increase.
Second quarter North American BDO prices in 2014 settled up in the range of 128-133 cents/lb, according to ICIS data.
The main producers in North America are BASF, INVISTA, Ashland and LyondellBasell.

Hiren, tutored me for GRE earlier this year. His style and technique of teaching is amazing. He makes things seem so easy to understand. He cleared all my fundamentals and was able to score great on GRE. Thanks Hiren!
We did six problems together, when I got home and looked at the answer sheet we got 4 out of six wrong. I specifically told him what type of algebra I needed help with; he obviously over estimated his knowledge. He seemed sincere, but I did not want to take the chance in meeting him again.
Hiren is great. We have just started, but based on our first session I know I will do great on the test. My confidence level has really boosted!
Contacted me and was upfront about not having current experience in subject requested (Java programming)
Hiren was very insightful, he has a calm demeanor, and was very patient. He helped me with my MBA Corporate Finance class. I recommend him to anyone who needs any mathematical help.
Hiren is really great! He is very knowledgeable in organic chemistry and explains concepts very well. He is patient and understanding. He is easy to communicate with and is always prompt. Excellent tutor!

Just like anyone who grew up in the Philippines, I'm very familiar with the brand Eskinol. How could I not, when their TV commercials and print ads have always been present on my everyday life. Despite that however, it's a brand that I always overlooked when I used to hunt down new drugstore skincare to try. I just never really had the urge to use it.
I've already wrote about my Acne Story, and have said that I've tried everything. From having my face pricked, to taking antibiotic (Dalacin C), to undergoing Derma-Rolling / Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy every two weeks, dietary change, lessening my caffeine intake..
It helped; my acne cleared massively. I still get zits every now and then, but it's not that bad anymore. I like having clear skin, though. So, for preventive purposes, I have been using this thing that my sister told me about.
Basically, take your toner (Eskinol is recommended) and mix a capsule of Dalacin C with it. I use 300g for the 225ml Eskinol bottle. Dalacin C is basically an antibiotic used to treat infections with bacteria. Pretty pricey (Php80 per capsule) if you take it orally, when used like this, it won't hurt your wallet much.
After washing my face (Innisfree Bija Facial Foam / Shiseido Perfect Whip), and then patting it dry.. I apply the Eskinol + Dalacin C mixture on my face with the use of a cotton ball. I putter around while I let that dry - with the high amount of alcohol in the Eskinol Astringent, you don't have to wait too long. After it dries down, I apply my moisturizer (Innisfree Bija Anti-trouble Lotion).
It's not really that different from my regular skincare routine, except I substitute the mild toner I usually use for this concoction.
As you can see in the photos above, in a little under a week, my pimples have dried out! There's a downside to this - your whole face will dry up. So, stock up on your moisturizer because you're going to need it.
Please note that I cannot guarantee that what worked for me, will work for you. Remember that we all have different skin types. I have a pretty thick skin (lels), so you might need something a little less stronger than this because it might irritate you further. Do check the ingredients for both Eskinol and Dalacin C because you might be allergic to some of it. Better to be safe than sorry, no?
Have you tried this before? :)

I hadn't planned this post but when my wife, Donna, started emailing these iPhone shots of the dishes she was served at per se yesterday at lunch I just had to put them up. First of all, Thomas Keller and his ace staff two years ago began offering dishes a la carte in their salon area, outside the dining room. It's a fabulous way to taste what the per se chefs, led now by CDC Eli Kaimeh, are up to. (It's no wonder that Sam Sifton, in his final column as restaurant critic for The New York Times, called it the best restaurant in New York City.) Chef Kaimeh did not work lunch yesterday; in his stead was Chef David Breeden. I once complimented Deborah Jones on her amazing photography in Under Pressure (she's photographed all of Read On »

EducationEnglish Major from the University of Wisconsin Stevens Point, Minors in ESL, Creative Writing, Comparative Literature, graduated in 2013
ExperienceI've had over 3 years of ESL tutoring experience both online and in-person. Most of the learners that I've had were from Asia (mostly Korea) and I helped them to learn the English language through conversation and through English-learning activities which proved to be successful. I tutor in ESL because that's what I enjoy doing the most in life. I know the English language is complex, but I tutor it in a way that it's fun and easier to learn.
Over the past few years, I've donated my time helping others learn English at the Portage County Literacy Council (Stevens Point), assisted an ESL instructor at the University of Wisconsin Stevens Point, and am currently an independent tutor living in Madison.
I provide tutoring in the following areas:
-conversational and written English
-preparation for TOEFl exam
-preparation for interviews conducted in English
HobbiesI would describe myself as a very goal-orientated person who likes to see others succeed. I truly care about those that I tutor and I want them to do well, so I work hard to plan effective sessions. When I'm not working, I like to travel, go sight-seeing, write, and spend time with family and friends.

By Hilary Corrigan
Triplicate staff writer
Through the zoom lens of a scope mounted on the passenger door of a Bronco, Frank Kemp watched the Aleutian Canada geese stoop and peck at the green grass off Lower Lake Road.
In his hand, Kemp clicked a counter and on a clipboard, recorded the location and number of the birds.
andquot;Good workout for the retina,andquot; Kemp, a scientific aid with the California Department of Fish and Game, said of the day-long birdwatching effort.
For three consecutive days in early March and another three mid-month, scientists simultaneously follow the birds from field to field, counting them in an annual survey meant to gauge their populations. They detail the color and codes of neck collars on some of the banded birds to avoid counting the same ones twice.
Not so much a wild goose chase as a controlled, methodical one.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service estimates a total of more than 100,000. Most of the geese stop in Del Norte County on their way to summer at the Aleutian Islands off Alaska, a 2,000-mile journey fueled by local grasses.
andquot;Heard a whole big slug of 'em showed up here yesterday,andquot; Kemp said as he made his way north, pasture by pasture. andquot;They're loading up for the big trip.andquot;
Bird watchers couldn't always see the geese here. In the early 1970s, the goose population reached about 700, prompting an listing on the federal Endangered Species Act in 1973.
The bird's name came off the list in 2001, after recovery efforts bolstered the species. Those included killing foxes that fur traders had introduced to the Alaskan coast, where they preyed on the breeding geese and their eggs, and setting aside land in California where the geese could graze in winter.
Now, bird Websites tout the comeback story. For the past eight years, the Annual Aleutian Goose Festival has celebrated the animal.
Birder Alan Barron has watched the number of geese climb since his arrival in Del Norte County in the early 1980s, when the population totaled in the low thousands.
andquot;It's been quite impressive. I've never seen anything like it,andquot; Barron said of the rebound. andquot;There's nothing else to call it except a success story.andquot;
Such a success, in fact, that hunting seasons have lengthened each year to kill more of the geese. This year, a special two-week hunt, from February to March, targeted them on private lands.
andquot;It has helped shift geese from private lands onto public lands,andquot; said Dave Lancaster, a wildlife biologist with the California Department of Fish and Game. andquot;That was the main purpose.andquot;
Ranchers and state officials want to repeat that hunt next year.
andquot;The geese are putting a lot of pressure on us and eating a lot of our feed,andquot; said Blake Alexandre, owner of Alexandre Dairy.
Alexandre estimates a loss of up to $1,000 each day as the birds eat pasture grasses on the approximately 2,800 acres that he farms in Del Norte County. That's grass that his cows graze on or that workers harvest to store as feed.
Alexandre uses small pickups and all-terrain vehicles to scare the geese, an effort that costs time and money.
andquot;We have three to four full-time employees chasing geese right now and it's still questionable if that's effective or not,andquot; he said, noting how the birds learn noises and methods. andquot;Everything works, for a short time.andquot;
Alexandre chairs the Aleutian Goose Working Group, a mix of ranchers, government officials and conservationists that formed after the bird's delisting. The group will likely support the special hunt again next year, after the pilot program attracted more than 100 hunters from throughout California to hunt on Alexandre's ranch.
andquot;We just aren't sure it's enough,andquot; Alexandre said of the effort.
The problem near his Smith River ranch is the same facing about 20 other farmers in Del Norte County, along with others near the Eel River in Humboldt County and in parts of southern Oregon.
andquot;Just imagine 50,000 of these hungry birds set up shop on your ranch in the springtime, which is a crucial time,andquot; Kemp said. andquot;Some uninvited guests at the buffet.andquot;
Federal guidelines have set a population goal of 60,000 for the geese.
andquot;I'd like to see the current population enforced at 60,000 and managed at 60,000,andquot; Alexandre said.
The working group also wants to see better irrigation and fertilization on public lands for the grazing geese that prefer the well-maintained private pastures.
andquot;So there's more green grass on that side of the fence,andquot; Alexandre said.
The state and working group manage about 600 acres of state lands in Del Norte County for the geese, leasing those sections for cattle grazing, as well.
andquot;They run out of feed and volume,andquot; Alexandre said of the geese.
The group will discuss the hunt, land improvement and other issues at a monthly meeting on March 28. And Alexandre usually speaks at the festival, to give the farmers' views.
andquot;The goose festival's been a good forum,andquot; Alexandre said. andquot;So that the public understands the cost to farmers.andquot;
Del Norte County lacks the stretches of public fields that the birds can visit while they winter in the San Joaquin and Sacramento valleys, said Paul Springer, a retired wildlife research biologist with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and teacher at Humboldt State University who has worked to recover the species.
Other possible alternatives could pay ranchers to share land with visiting geese.
andquot;In a sense, I say, we oversucceeded,andquot; Springer said of the Aleutian goose's comeback. andquot;We've got a new set of problems now. They're no longer endangered, but we've got them competing with the ranchers.andquot;
Meet the Aleutian Canada Goose
The Aleutian Canada Goose neared extinction in the 1970s and now boasts a population of more than 100,000. The bird also boasts the following characteristics:
?Measures about the size of a mallard, or half the size of Canada geese
?Sounds a high-pitched squeak rather than the Canada goose's deeper honk
?Has a short forehead, short bill and a ring of white at the base of neck
?Population decline attributed to fur farmers who imported the Arctic fox to its breeding grounds off of the Alaska coast in the early 1900s

It's November guys! One more month and it's the end of the year. Time has passed by so fast that it's hard to keep track of time most days. One thing that keeps popping up in my mind is being happy. Photography, cold walks in the morning or in a busy San Francisco evening make me feel content. One thing that really gets me is blogging. I'm getting out there a little at a time. Baby steps, baby steps. So far, I've bought ad space at Urban Tease's blog (if you haven't been to her blog, then I suggest you go check it out, I always love her content). Lately I've been thinking about the outcome of my life and I want to be successful in my own terms.
Be successful but don't sacrifice your happiness for it. In the end, it won't mean a thing.

|Liefmans Yell'oh On The Rocks
dasdan (22) , Belgium | April 21, 2013
visited during Oudenaarde Bruin event 04/2013
caesar (390) Bunnik/Utrecht, Netherlands | August 4, 2012
Visited 2 years ago. Don't know whether they still brewed, but fresh krieken were outside for fermentation. Also a small tasting room was available, yet closed at the time I visited. Been there, couldn't do anything, but just see and smell the cherries. Tough to rate, but wanted to 'tick' the place :-)
Jerre (96) Waregem, Belgium | July 31, 2011
You still can visit this amazing brewery ! We deed this this winter with a group, fantastic. You can taste some Liefmans' beers after brewery tour. NICE place.
BriSava (78) , Japan | May 16, 2011
Legendary brewery. This is a museum except for fermentation open vessels. You can taste some Liefmans' beers after brewery tour on a sad note.
Tim Webb (516) Bristol, England | August 8, 2009
I have suggested this one comes down because I do not believe the public can visit except on an official tour. That may change. Also, there has been no brewing here for 15 years. Only fermentation.
YogiBeera (121) New Jersey | October 23, 2005
Well - from the outside this is a wonderful brewery and as we have been in the area we thought "What the heck, let's go" though we are not to fond of their beers. They have a tasting room at the office with three tables - I do not think that you get beers on tap there I believe. The secretary who sold us some bottles and also served as a glass was very friendly though. The huge festival room we took a peak appeared as the tasting room in this kind of smokey 5O's country side look, which becomes somehow cultic again. Anyway, if in the area, worth a short visit.

Dundas & Wilson managing partner Donald Shaw has stood down from the role with immediate effect.
Two years ago Shaw was elected to a second three-year term as managing partner, becoming the sole person in the role after his co-managing partner Alan Campbell stood down from management (4 January 2010). He began his second term in May 2010.
It is unclear what Shaw's plans are, but the firm said that details of his "ongoing role with the firm" will be agreed in the coming days. Head of performance and resources Caryn Penley, who also leads the firm's debt, recovery and restructuring practice, and head of operational excellence Allan Wernham, who also heads the firm's real estate team, will take over firm management on an interim basis.
The firm's chairman David Hardie said in a statement: "We welcome Donald's decision to concentrate his considerable talent on our clients and to help us to further develop our firm and our strong focus on the real estate sector.
"I will be arranging a managing partner election in due course. In the interim, Caryn Penley and Allan Wernham will continue their existing roles and assume the additional responsibilities of the managing partner.
"We are deeply grateful to Donald for his skilled and dedicated service to the firm over the last six years as managing partner."
Dundas has recently begun a consultation aimed at cutting staff and partner numbers across its offices and practice groups (24 February 2012). The firm said the cuts were necessary to "reshape some practice areas to reflect the anticipated business needs".
The firm has also suffered a number of high-profile partner departures in recent months. In February real estate partner Richard Lampert resigned from the firm and will join Eversheds (8 February 2012) while the firm's infrastructure head Andrew Renton left for partnership at Bird & Bird (7 December 2011).
Last year the firm attempted to grow its City practice via a tie-up with Bircham Dyson Bell, but merger talks ultimately collapsed after neither firm won partner support for the move (10 October 2011).
In February Dundas opened an office in Aberdeen (2 February 2012).

Why I Won't Date Wolverine
Why I Won't Date Wolverine
Gradually, you forget what it's like to be vulnerable.
You begin walking through glass doors as a shortcut,
you are unafraid of the knife wielded by the man
in the subway who wants your wallet. You do not care
that he desires it not because he wants drugs or liquor
but because he was laid off in the financial collapse
and he cannot tell his family that for the past six weeks
he has been walking out of the house each day in tailored
suits, briefcase in hand, driving his newly-leased Jaguar XF
to a bookstore an hour from home so he can search for a job
without having to tell anyone the truth. You do not care
that he reached bottom last week, no hope for something
new, this is an act of desperation, a way to meet his children's
demands for new iPods and Converse, for school ski trips
and prom dresses. No, none of this matters: you simply
twist his wrist without looking him in the eye, the knife
falls to the ground with a clatter, and he is holding his own
broken hand.
Who would choose someone unbreakable?

Ecotherapy - Ololua Nature Trail1:44:00 PM
Good afternoon beautiful people,
Quick post on my morning that I just have to share. So my girl P took me for a nature walk in Ololua Nature Trail because my recent panic attacks and anxiety issues needed this type of cure ...thanking God for friends who know how to handle these things.
It's Ksh 200 for citizens, Ksh 400 for residents and Ksh 600 for non residents. It has a camping and picnic site.
There is a waterfall and lots and lots of amazing roots (yes I loved the roots of all the trees we saw in there),
there is also a tree house of sorts and this place you can sit by the stream which unfortunately some people had a birthday (there was a cake box) and decided to leave all there trash mostly alcohol bottles by the river bed (shame on you whoever you are) There was a cave but we were there to cool anxiety not to create more so we skipped it.
I loved those 2 hours out there in nature, got home feeling so so relaxed and full of joy...there is always something about nature that does it for me, think I will be going back there real soon.

This granola is heavenly! It is so delicious and I just love a few tablespoons with nut butter and berries after dinner or as a snack, when I'm craving something a little sweet. I love making a big batch and storing it in an airtight jar in the cupboard. Delicious!
2/3 cup buckwheat
1/3 cup melted coconut oil
1/2 cup rice malt syrup
5 tablespoons raw cacao nibs
3 tablespoons chia seeds
2 heaped tablespoons cacao powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
To make:
Place the buckwheat in a strainer and wash well. Drain. Preheat the oven to 130 ºC. In a saucepan add the coconut oil and the rice malt syrup and over low heat melt the rice malt syrup, stirring constantly (this will take a few minutes).
In a large bowl combine all the dry ingredients. Add the wet ingredients to the bowl and mix well (you can use your hands to!). Spread evenly over a tray lined with non stick baking paper.
Bake, stirring at the half way mark, for 30-45 minutes. Place the tray into your fridge to cool (or transfer the buckwheat granola to a smaller tray (this will help it to form lovely clumps). When cool gently transfer to an airtight container/ glass jar. Serves 3-4. This granola will keep for up to 2 weeks if airtight.
