The new France are without question the worst team in history to make a World Cup final. Les Bleus are leached of colour, a pale imitation of former glories.
Captain Thierry Dusautoir, the man who made the 38 tackles that beat the All Blacks four years ago, was embarrassed to talk to the world after this victory.
He said: "We've been extremely lucky. I think there are a lot of people amazed to see us qualify and think we are not talented. But we play with our hearts."
They certainly don't play with any soul. Against 14 men all France could think to do was kick. Yes, it was damp, but the French were wetter. New Zealand or Australia would have to have two men sent off to lose to this lot next week.
The final has been ruined. If it is a dry Sunday, then the Southern hemisphere will run riot.
Once again Morgan Parra proved that he is not a No. 10. New Zealand will cut him apart in the inside channel. Once again Aurélien Rougerie proved that he is not a centre.
The Aussie backs will romp past him, just as they did when they trounced Marc Lièvremont's men 59-16 last year.
Welsh coach Warren Gatland could scarcely hide his contempt. He said: "At no stage did France cause us any problems in attack. They kicked the ball about 38 times. They're in the final. I just hope they play a bit more rugby than they did tonight."
Of course the French have a few warriors. Imanol Harinordoquy again raged across the pitch. He is the man who his coach described as amateurish against Japan.
Dimitri Yashvili was heroic on one leg. Lievremont had a row with him as well. The front row can scrummage, even if their replacements are hopeless. Lionel Nallet is a hard man in the second row.
And maybe Maxime Medard and Maxime Mermoz, the M&M's, can break the line if they dare.
But who dares loses, or that is how it is starting to seem. Last week the Dullabies and now Les Blahs. Lièvremont said: "I don't care at all if it was a good match or not or if the Welsh deserved to be in the final. We're in the final and that's all that counts."
Wrong and wrong again. Playing the beautiful game must count for something. And so does honesty. Vincent Clerc should be ashamed of himself.
Yes, the wing was tipped up in the tackle, but Clerc stayed down in full knowledge that he was trying to get a man sent off.
In the second half he took a dive when chasing a ball. This sequence of cheating was worse than Thierry Henry's handball against Ireland in the football World Cup.
Hopefully manager Joe Maso, who played like a poet, will have a word with Monsieur Clerc and tell him to behave.
Lièvremont said: "The team has a lot of strength of character and deserves to be world champion. In our wildest dreams we always imagined ourselves playing against New Zealand.
"We have not played the best rugby, the most spectacular rugby, but we are there and must believe in the fate of this team."
That is the nearest to fantasy that France have come at this World Cup. After the farcical defeat against Tonga, the players took over the asylum.
But France are still as mad as a box of frogs.

A lemon strawberry smoothie recipe blending sweet strawberries with tart and tangy lemonade. The resulting mix is really refreshing and very satisfying.
Eating a healthy diet is always important and, while this mix is pretty healthy on its own, it can be made even more so just by adding a tablespoon of Chia seed. Chia is a natural seed that adds a large measure of nutrition including heart healthy, cholesterol fighting omega 3 fatty acids and antioxidants. Even better, unlike Flax, Chia doesn't have a noticeable taste of its own so adding it here won't change the delicious Lemon strawberry results. Chia is available at most health food stores, or you can order it directly from Amazon by clicking on the link in the recipe below.
In your favorite blender mix:
- -5 large strawberries (fresh is best but frozen is fine)
- -1 carton fat-free frozen strawberry yogurt
- -1/2 cup sugar-free lemonade (I like Crystal Lite)
- -1 Tbsp. Chia seed
Blend until you get the consistency you prefer and serve. Makes a single serving. If you want to sweeten a bit, in case the strawberries are not as sweet as you like add one pack of a sugar substitute or two teaspoons of honey

I am borrowing my brothers Traeger to cook 2 rib roasts. I need detailed instructions. My brother will tell me something very general and leave me anxious. I am doing one of the roasts for the group that likes a medium to medium rare--but my other guests like it rare. This time of yr rib roasts are $4 or less per lb. Help!
Instructions for rib roast on a Traeger
Here is a link to their recipe.
Bubba, do you have a Traeger?
No, I don't. Sounds like an interesting concept, tho.
They are fabulous. $$$$$ and so I have our simple charcoal grill. But glad my bro has one!
Hi Anastasia. I'm just across the river from you in St. Helens.
It's kind of hard to give specific instructions. It depends upon the size of the Prime Rib and your preferences, but I can give some general tips.
1. The Traeger is easy to use, but given the expense of those roasts, I'd do a "trial run" a couple of days before with a less expensive cut, just to become familiar with the Traeger itself, loading the pellets, etc. It will cook more quickly (think convection and you're close).
2. Have a good thermometer. We use an instant-read now, but we have used programmable thermometers also.
3. What we do with a prime rib is pretty simple. It's good to do this the night before so the flavors infuse the meat. I cut slits in the outer surface in stuff in good-sized slivers of peeled garlic. (Obviously, you have to like garlic. Otherwise skip it.) Then I mix sea salt and fresh ground pepper. I rub the prime rib with olive oil, the salt and pepper for a seasoning paste.
For a small prime rib (4 pounds) we do a high-heat roast (500 degrees) bone-side down for about 20 minutes. Then we turn down to smoke for about 75 minutes. Then we finish at 375 degrees until the roast reaches about 130 degrees. We let it rest about 20 minutes, at which point it should be about 136 degrees. But this is for us. We like our beef rare.
You could obviously skip the smoke and just do a conventional roast as you would in the oven. Cooking time, as I mentioned, is a bit faster.
The Traeger site is very helpful. In fact, I'm sure if you call with questions, they'll have the answers for anything you can't figure out.
Here are their instructions for Prime Rib with a salt crust. Don't use Morton's Kosher if you use this recipe. Use Diamond Crystal, which is pure salt. Speaking just for myself, I do NOT like Traeger's seasoning rubs. Way too loaded with salt and preservatives for me.
Also, on their site under the "Support" tab you'll find copies of the operating manual and tips for operation.
I hope this helps. Enjoy,

I have two 12V 4.5Ah sealed Lead Acid batteries from an old electric scooter. The scooter is a decade old, and packed up a few months after purchase. The batteries were literally left as is for almost ten years, and I am unsure if they were connected to the circuit or not during that time.
Okay, so the one measures 1.1V, and the other -0.6V! The negative voltage is very odd as the batteries were in series and I can't think how that could be physically possible through (dis)charge..
I do not have any desulphation equipment or similar, all I have is an alarm "UPS box", which slowly charges SLA batteries, although it never gets them above 13.4V as that is what it outputs when no battery is connected, also it's all linear - nothing fancy.
Is there anything I can do to resurrect these batteries with the equipment I have, or should I just have them recycled? I have a fair amount of knowledge in electronics if there's anything I could do. Also, are there any dangers hooking it up to my charger or hooking up one with a voltage too low in general?
Once you've added water, wait half an hour, some of that water is going to soak into those dry plates, check and add water repeating the wait time once again.
Some caps from sealed battery's are press fitted while others are glued on.
There are additives on the market used to rejuvenate a battery, I've never used any of these products, so I'm unable to give any pro's or con's of there use.
Now that your satisfied no more water is needed you can hook up a charger, hopefully the battery will take a charge but in my opinion a ten year olf battery has a one way trip to the scrap yard.
Older commercial battery charges were equipped with a feature that would de-sulphate a battery's plates.
Other factors with an aged battery, if you were to disassemble the battery you would find that a fiber glass mat separates each lead plate, in the old days this separator was made from a thin layer of wood. The below the plates built into the case is a sump, this sump is to allow for crap that sheds free from the plates to have a place to settle with out short circuiting plates in the cell above.
Shedding of plate material comes with age and rough usage from driving over rough gravel roads shaking the battery, this is one of two reasons the battery is secured in place the other is to secure it in case of a vehicle roll over to keep the top posts from shorting out causing a fire. Today most vehicles I would think use a side post battery,
In my line of work any battery that went dead was in a machine no easily accessible and had to be packed out for charging by swapping with my truck battery, now the funny thing is that an alternator will not charge a fully discharged battery while a a generator will.
My first car a 1947 Hudson always had a dead battery, because it had a generator the car could be push started even with out a battery installed.
The art of survival is a story that never ends. American Hustle.

Most people know that exercise tones the muscles and improves cardiovascular fitness. It also burns calories! However, a lot of people don't understand just how good exercise is for the mind. Today, we're going to talk about why exercise not only strengthens your body but also your mind…
Exercise Will Elevate Your Mood
You deserve to feel great all day long and the best way to access this long-lasting sense of well-being is to exercise daily or at least a few times per week. Your workouts don't need to last more than half an hour, as long as they are rigorous enough to raise your heart rate and to qualify as cardio exercise.
Examples of cardio exercise include running, aerobics, tennis and swimming. Once your heart rate is raised for a while, your body will start to produce endorphins. Endorphins are "feel-good" chemicals and they are the secret of why people who exercise a lot tend to be in good moods and have positive mindsets.
Since the effects of endorphins may last for hours, you'll find that exercise has the capacity to change your whole life for the better. For example, if you find that you're someone who gets stressed out regularly, or is prone to depression, using exercise as a drug-free, surgery-free way to feel better mentally and emotionally will be a healthy and smart strategy.
Chances are good that regular hard exercise will resolve a lot of your stress issues and it may even relieve the symptoms of depression. Of course, some depression is so serious that it requires medical care. If you suffer from severe depression, you should definitely talk to your doctor – he or she can definitely help!
Exercise Builds Personal Confidence
You'll probably find that you feel more confident when you exercise a lot. Again, endorphins are the reason why. However, exercise offers more benefits to the mind than endorphins alone. It also lowers stress and boosts well-being by improving circulation. Basically, when you get your blood flowing via exercise, you will feel more alive. Poor circulation promotes sluggishness and a sense of lethargy.
The truth is that it's possible to make your life better just by exercising. This is why some of the world's most successful celebrities and entrepreneurs build exercise into their days, every day or at least several times a week. For example, Hollywood actress Gwyneth Paltrow does a 90-minute workout every morning, after she gets her kids ready for school. Burlesque performer, Dita Von Teese, also believes that morning workouts are the secret of enjoying full and happy days and being able to indulge a bit in terms of food and drink. Of course, she makes it a point to spend a few more minutes doing crunches on a weight bench when she indulges in her favorite food.
Find a New Exercise Program Today
You deserve to feel amazing. While we all have off days, you'll find that working out means that off days are few and far between. Those who don't understand the mood-boosting benefits of exercise are missing out on some serious vitality and adding workouts a few times a week should be enough to turn things around. If you're someone who doesn't exercise a lot, you should know that it's one of the keys to being a happier person. Exercise will balance your mood and make your problems seem less insurmountable.
Our attitudes play a prominent role in how successful we are in life. If you think that you could improve your attitude, exercise will help you to do so. In fact, after just half an hour of hard exercise, you may feel like a whole new you. So, why not choose a new exercise program today? As long as it raises you heart rate, it'll definitely have the power to improve your mood.

The German carmaker Mercedes-Benz has been coming out with safety features of the future that could become a commodity for mainstream vehicles someday. Back in 1974, Mercedes-Benz built its very first ESV (Experimental Safety Vehicle) called the ESF 2009, which was patterned after an S400 Hybrid and came with numerous safety features, most of which were working.
One of the most significant safety elements in the ESV is an auxiliary brake installed into the floor of the vehicle.
When the car senses an impending collision, the braking bag inflates, producing friction and increasing deceleration.
The front of the car is also lifted up by 80mm as a means by which dive is compensated. Furthermore, engineers of the German carmaker have created inflatable metal structures which can save space and boost protection in case of a collision.
These can be inflated by pressures ranging between 10 to 20 bar. The space they save become available for other safety devices to be installed.
When the car senses a side impact, with the aid of special seat bolsters, the occupants can be moved up to 50 mm to the center of the cabin. Reflective tires, full emergency braking and seat-belt fitted air bags are also part of the safety features of the car.
According to the carmaker, these safety features was not just about scoring points in crash tests, but it is a demonstration of how comprehensive Mercedes-Benz's approach to total car safety is.

The canning bug continues...
I made up these beauties the same day that I made my Peach/Mango/Jalapeno Chutney, the very easy recipe can be found HERE.
The peach & vanilla jam recipe to be quite honest came about accidentally. I have two sugar containers. One has just plain sugar in it, and the other that I use for cakes etc., that one has vanilla beans buried into the sugar. This gives the sugar a wonderful vanilla flavor.
When I pulled out the sugar, you guessed it ... I pulled the vanilla one out. After I scooped out and poured the allotted sugar into the cooking peach puree, I spotted the beans.
Now you are going to ask me, "Didi, couldn't you smell the vanilla when you opened the container"? Yes, yes I did, but since I had been canning with various spices all day ... it literally all just blended into one for me.
So I said to myself, "self, just add a couple of beans in the mix and take out before canning, I bet it will taste wonderful". Well, the risk was worth it.
This is downright DELICIOUS!!
You can taste the sweetness of the peaches and just a hint of vanilla almost like a whisper on your tongue. I know I will be preparing my peach jam like this from now on, and this time, on purpose!!
I can see this spread liberally over buttery toast on a cold winters morning. As a marinade for a succulent pork roast. As the sweetener for a stir fry ...
lightly marinated chicken breasts ... the possibilities are endless!!
Ready for the recipe? Here we go:
4 cups peaches diced, skins and pits removed
1-3/4 - 2 cups sugar (taste your peaches to see how sweet they are)
1 pkg sur-gel for fruits and vegetables
1 tbsp lemon juice (I used bottled)
2 vanilla beans, seeds removed
pinch of salt
1/2 tsp butter (to help with foam)
Using your food processor or blender, add your diced peaches till they are pureed.
Using a stainless steel saucepan, add the peaches, lemon juice, pinch of salt and the dab of butter. Bring to a simmer. Once simmering, add your gelatin. Bring to a simmer again and add your sugar and beans. Bring to a rolling boil and continue cooking for about a minute or so. Turn off heat, cover and keep hot.
Follow canning instructions HERE. Let cool, and enjoy all winter long!!
On that note, last weekend I made another batch of peach jam. This time I added vanilla powder and 3/4 tsp of grated orange zest.
"Holy Wonderful Peach Marmalade Batman"!!! It is out of this world good!!
Peach jam with a hint of vanilla and orange!! I have plenty of baking ideas rolling around in my head using this delicious peachy/orange beauty!!
So my friends, get busy!! ;-) I know I am!! Oops, I think I heard the timer...
Till next time!!

Benue State Gov. Samuel Ortom on Friday said the state government was ready to collaborate with the Nigerian Christian Pilgrims Commission (NCPC) on agricultural development.
Ortom stated this when he paid a courtesy visit to the Commission's headquarters in Abuja.
He said the state government would collaborate and support the Commission within its available resources, especially in the area of agriculture.
He added that "Benue as the food basket of Nigeria stands to benefit when our farmers go to the Holy Land and learn more from the skill acquisition programme offered by the Commission there.
"The states that are agriculturally inclined should encourage their farmers by sending them to Israel on Holy pilgrimage.
"This is because the advantages are enormous; the farmers will benefit spiritually by praying for themselves and the country and will acquire knowledge in different farm techniques.''
On the issue of lottery to perform the pilgrimage, Ortom said it was a good initiative, as it would give the less privileged the opportunity to travel to Israel with ease.

A few weeks ago, news broke out about someone who successfully installed OS X on the Eee PC. The guy was able to install OS X Leopard to the Eee but there was a lot of skepticality on its usability. As a Mac user, I researched on this and see if it is indeed viable to run my favorite OS on my soon-to-be-favorite laptop and during the course of my research, I stumbled upon this wiki: How to Install OS X Tiger on the Eee PC.
The process is pretty straightforward, if not a bit dubious (considering the legality of the activity). After reading the rather long procedure, in the end, the wiki states:
WiFi, audio, webcam and microphone are confirmed not working initially. There is no published fix yet, but we are working to get these working as quickly as possible.
So, what's the point?
I personally would rather have a fully-functional Linux-based machine than a partially-functional computer.

While at Home Depot recently to select some mirrors for a home, I saw this 36" vanity. I think it is perfect for our basement bath when the time comes. I like that it has drawers and is on feet. The price is right too.
I have been working on a spec home that is turning out really nice. I like the way we took this one...
This master bath in a custom home we are wrapping up soon turned out really nice. I especially like the slipper claw foot tub with large picture window.
We have been busy this month. Working on relaxing and stuff around the house. We have set some goals for the year and we are off to a great start.
Now a few questions:
Does anyone have a fitbit?
what do you think of it, and what model do you have?
I carry my phone with me a lot, but it does not work well as a pedometer for me.
If you were going to treat yourself to new boots, would you go with
Option A:
or Option B:
I am leaning toward option B, but let me know your thoughts!

Francesca Dell'Oro Parfum was born as an artistic olfactory laboratory. After years spent in haute couture, design and luxury, Francesca decided to treasure inspirations and experiences gathered to fulfill her dream: translate emotions and language of senses in unique and valuable perfumes while telling and sharing unforgettable stories with her olfactory creations. For Francesca, perfume is a highly refined complement. The most valuable and intriguing perfumes become a blend of notes for always different harmonies. Desires, memories and dreams lose their untouchable nature to acquire liquid consistency and consecrate themselves on skin.
The Perfumes
All Francesca Dell'Oro Parfum fragrances are to be "interpreted" elegant, unusual, and able to magnify the connection with one's inner self.
Like a perfumed hug, an enveloping and precious fragrance that glides over the skin and accompanies in caressing and privileged atmosphere. This fragrance was born as a sophisticated architecture designed to modulate the colour of confidence and paint delicate flowering corners, reassuring and collected, but made bold by woody and spicy prospective.
An intimate fragrance, a scent full of memories of heart and thoughts that travel within the walls of an evocation dear to memory. Not a neutral place but a peaceful one: white-hot. White Plumage is the sublime impalpability of a feeling that emerges. The ephemeral boundary between the woody notes, white and precious, blends with ancient mystical scent resins creating a bond with one's sensible Ego.
An idiom made of vitality and colour dedicated to a Bubble woman, bouncing and sparkling, a bit "Lolita" and a bit "it girl", who expresses her personality in Technicolor. A carefree and sometimes mischievous fragrance that possesses all the nuances of "bon bon" accords. The sunniness of fruity tones is harmonized together with the sweetness of the exotic vanillas and the pulp of tropical coconut.
Francine is an olfactory "modernist" creation that recalls the uncontaminated nature. The luxuriant Mediterranean resounds in classical woods that dominate the base of the fragrance. Between land and sea, the cool shyness of an irreverent galbanum is mottled by floral and aromatic tones peek out.
Compelling as a thrill through fingers, as a mysterious adventure, as the nature of things. This is a sharp edged perfume, with a touch of glamour embedded in the eastern soul, to be looked "straight in the eye". Sumptuous saffron, coriander and davana open up the top notes with a scratchy and decided momentum.
A neo-romantic perfume with warm notes of musk and Siam benzoin enclosed in the sweetness of orange blossom and tiaré. A floral and bright sensuality built around the key ingredient of the fragrance, the gardenia, a flower that proclaims a modern while retro sweetness, in an accord with noble allure given by the variegated shades. Delicate reflections, like from another era, light up the base for a romantic and chic creature.
Like the sheet of a diary, like the page of a book, this perfume contains various suggestions. A perfume that is coloured of time, of shadow and light. The spiral of the leather backgrounds create a moiré effect, iridescent and similar to silk brocades. The opening notes give the fragrance all the generous opulence of the rosewood and the lightness of the Florentine Orris enriched by gentle tangerines and Capua's bergamot.
The Bottle & Packaging
The creative studio Sonia Pedrazzini Design Atelier has designed a precious bottle-sculpture, faceted like a jewel. The glass – almost a crystal prism with pure net, asymmetric lines, which catch light and then spread it through refractions always new and surprising. It is produced by the historical French glass manufacturer Pochet et du Courval. The result is a double-faced gem: complex and sharp on the front, round and plain like a smooth stone on the back.
The dynamic and elegant artworks of Tamara de Lempicka, prototype of the modern woman, cultured and emancipated, just like the brand creator, inspire the shape of the bottle. An iconic and rigorous bottle, but also charming and seductive, that blends retro allusions and postmodern deconstructionism. Classic and contemporary at the same time and in the same hand, this combination best represents the style of Francesca Dell'Oro today.

Hashim, M., "Un-Controlled Generation Modelling and Analysis for Hybrid Vehicles," SAE Technical Paper 2017-26-0108, 2017, https://doi.org/10.4271/2017-26-0108.
Interior permanent magnet machines are being widely used in hybrid vehicles owing to their compact size and high power density. Vehicle level application requires the motor to operate at high speed beyond the base speed of the motor. This is accomplished through flux weakening control. Nonfunctioning of inverter switches and/or gate driver circuit during flux weakening could give rise to a potential fault scenario called Un-Controlled Generation (UCG). This paper gives a detailed background of UCG and its impact on the high voltage and propulsion systems. In further sections the details related to modelling and analysis of UCG will be discussed. Finally, the paper will conclude with simulation results and comparison of the results with motor dynamometer test data.

In the roiling heat of the summer of 1977, 11-year-old Mira enters the high-stakes world of New York City ballet, a fiercely competitive world of struggle, obsession, passion for beauty - and something sinister that will challenge her, protect her, and ultimately take her innocence.
After her parents' divorce and a childhood spent between her father's tony Upper East Side dwelling and her mother's disordered Brooklyn habitat, young Mira becomes fascinated with the perfectionism, power, and promise of glory that ballet offers. Over the course of four years, she hones her talent, becoming a dancer for Balanchine - one of "Mr. B's girls" - eventually attracting the attention of 47-year-old Maurice, a reclusive, charismatic balletomane who haunts the city's dance studios and takes the young girl under his wing. As Mira plunges deeper into the ballet world, her relationship with Maurice intensifies, isolating her and taking her to darker and darker places within herself.
In the present day, Kate, a professor of dance at a Midwestern college, embarks on a risky affair with a student that threatens to obliterate her career and upend the life she has painstakingly created for her reinvented self. When she receives a letter from a man she has long thought dead, Kate is hurled back to the dramas of a past she thought she had left behind.
This enthralling literary debut is told in interweaving narratives that move between past and present, illuminating the costs and privileges of ambition and excellence and whether the sacrifices we make for an ideal destroy us - or save us.

"I'm not even finished but so irritated already."
It's pointe pronounced POINT. Not pwont. I am so distracted by that....it's silly, I know. But COME ON. In less OCD thoughts, so far, this book is just getting nowhere and not even fast. So many authors these days do that thing....you know....the thing where they jump back and forth from the past and the present. If it's done well, it's a good tool for suspense and an interesting way to present the history of a character. In this case, it's just choppy.
I'm not sure yet.
Aside from the pointe/pwont thing,I actually think Ms. Gilbert is a good performer. She does various voices for the different characters very well and seamlessly. She has a good grasp of French pronunciation,aside, of course, from "pwont." As an aside, there have been a few cases where she does say pointe and I almost celebrate when she does.
Darkness. I have not finished the book, so this sentiment may change, but the book's main character is insipid. I think we are supposed to think she is a woman of strength and determination, but truly, she is weak and lets things happen to her. She hasn't, thus far anyway, shown any strength or will power.
I am hoping this book takes a turn towards the end, where I am currently.
"Mostly decent"
My main problem with listening to this book was the narrater's insistence on saying " pa-went" instead of "pointe." It set my teeth on edge every time I heard it. I have been around ballet all my life and never have I heard it pronounced this way.
""Beautiful" coming of age story"
Yes. The style of writing, I guess it is prose? It is almost poetic. Well written if you like that style. You can end up daydreaming in parts, and getting lost in descriptions. It wasn't in excess though, and I never lost the story.
I don't know. It's very different. It almost felt like a Si-Fy novel at the beginning, not in content, but in it's nature. That's how it felt to me. Kind of void of feeling. I don't know how to describe the writing kind of scientific and almost sterile. I have to admit, I needed a dictionary for some of the words. I had doubts I would continue until the end, when I first started it. It does jump around present to past and so on, and there is a lot of ballet jargon. It did grow on me once things started falling into place. It had my curiosity. That being said it is a good book. I realize the style of writing kind of fit once more was learned about main character and her life.
I don't think so. She is very good. It's always tough doing the opposite sex voice but she manages to hold her own.
That's hard. They all are. Of course the main character, and the older man she falls in love with.Sorry not good with names.....Also, the main character's her mother ( even thought she had a small part) she turned out to be layered and with more substance, than I thought at the start.
You can take this book a different way, but to me its about how we evolve to who we are due to our past. Oh, and also "Beauty", how we idolize it, and in this case, it is not necessarily a good thing.
"Fascinating and complex"
Sophisticated and more than a little dark. Characters a bit too unlikeable. Overall great read.
"Can't imagine loving this if you're not a bunhead..."
Good compelling story. Narrator good but her pronunciation of "pointe" was eye roll-inducing; no one pronounces it that way, even if it is "correct," it just sounded pretentious and distracting.
"Wouldn't recommend"
The readers voice sounded frantic and the story was not interesting to a non-dancer.
"Narator ... not good"
A narator that didn't read the words so fast you felt like she was in a race to finish the book.
I don't know I have now struck out on the last two titels.. this one and "the girl on the train" So I am scared to lay out any more money for a book I do not like or will not finish.
Totally made it an unpleasant experience. . As I wrote above. It seemed as if she was in a race with someone or the time clock to get the words read as fast as she could.
Could not get far enough into it to have any reaction other than dislike for the narrator.
"Beautifully written"
This book reads autobiographical- the author drags you back into the 70's NYC just as easily as she paints it today. She obviously did her research for every aspect of this book down to California and ballet shoes A must read!!

The Board comprises four directors, including a joint chairman and CEO who has executive responsibilities, including the day-today management and financial control of the Company.
All directors are actively involved in operations and will continue to be so until the Company's operational commitments are adequately funded over the medium to long term. All work on a part-time basis to ensure that management costs are kept to a reasonable minimum, but this does not detract from the effective management of operational and development activities. Warrants and share options are used as an alternative to fees to minimise the Company's running costs.
All the non-executive directors have a successful track record in establishing and developing fledgling oil and gas companies and are fully committed to using their experience to benefit all shareholders.
The Board meets formally four times per year but the UK-based directors meet to review operational and administrative progress with technical and administrative consultants about fortnightly.
There are formally constituted Audit and Remuneration Committees (below). There is currently no formal Nominations Committee as the Board as a whole will participate in all relevant decisions.

The Akio | Spotter Club took place on July 6th 2016, at the Particulier Eurosites hotel in Paris. Some of our clients, such as BNP Paribas, Hellobank!, CREPA, DILA, Engie, Air France, Harmony Mutuelle Hop!, La Halle, Swisslife, Voyages-SNCF, Orange, SFR, were present to share their experiences and discover - with the help of our experts - our latest products.
At 8:30, all participants were welcomed with a tasty breakfast, followed by a conference, a round table and a workshop. The morning period, which was dedicated to Customer Service and Social Analytics, ended at 2pm with a cocktail buffet that extended the interactions among participants and promoted networking.
The conference held by Benoit Chaix, Product Director, and Gil Francopoulo, Akio's Linguistics Expert, presented our latest innovations and included the semantic analysis of the customer voice module, as well as their vision about Akio and Spotter's products for years ahead.
Emmanuel Olivié-Paul, Associate Director at Markess, an independent research firm, introduced a panel discussion called "The convergence of businesses, an imperative step towards achieving customer service excellence" by presenting 4 digital innovations for customer experience: better analysis and usage of customer data, leveraging the potential of mobile usage, developing real-time collaboration, and unifying communications for a more effective omnichannel customer journey. Amira Gharbi, Happiness Customer Project Manager at Sarenza, then shared her vision of the cross-channel customer experience: "The customer experience at Sarenza must be different: more personal and caring. We try to make our customers happy regardless of the channel where the relationship begins, and to end the customer journey on a pleasant note." Dominique Ferrer, Customer Insights Analyst and Angélique Merveilleux du Vignaux, in charge of Media Monitoring and Analysis - who are both from Air France - went on to speak about their project with Spotter, the analytics and social brand of Akio, explaining "How Air France manages to listen to social customer conversations to better understand their expectations, opinions and experiences" and "How AF-KLM monitors media coverage online and offline and manages its reputation more effectively."
Exchanges between Markess, Sarenza and Air France have shown that, more than ever, Customer Service, Marketing and Communications departments must manage conversations in real time in order to improve the customer experience and protect brand reputation.
Participants then had the option of choosing from 2 workshops led by our team of experts: "The KPIs of omnichannel customer relationships" or "Improving customer knowledge by listening to social conversations."
We were glad to be able to gather many brilliant minds from different clients in one place, learn more from the customer service challenges, and present our ominichannel solutions to help them achieve excellence.

Historical group moves from courthouse to hall
Three times the space previously available to the organization in the courthouse is found in the Pierce County Historical Association's new headquarters at the Ellsworth Village Hall.
The group relocated from the courthouse's lower level to the former quarters of the probation and parole office in the hall's lower level last month.
"Ten months ago, they moved out," Audrey Gilbertson of the association said Thursday about probation and parole, which now operates from the back of the State Farm Insurance building at Main and Grant streets.
Despite the historical organization having only part of that operation's former area, there are three rooms instead of just one, Gilbertson said. The rooms have now been designated for main office, staff and storage purposes.
"Our new main office alone is the size of the entire one we had before," she said, crediting past Association President Reta Sanford for skillfully organizing the holdings to fit at their small courthouse site.
Last week, several members were still arranging books and other materials on shelves and in cabinets at the hall. Gilbertson said plans call for building a wall across a hallway between the association's area and the rest of the facilities, expected to eventually house another tenant, as well as close up a counter window once used by probation and parole.
"We don't need that light," she said, referring to the window opening and how historical documents are better preserved under less natural light.
A more immediate concern was the ability of association patrons to find the relocated headquarters inside the village hall building, she said. Signage was in progress, but meantime directions call for entering the hall's east side (back) lower level door off the parking lot, going all the way down a hallway straight ahead, turning right and right again through a door into the association's area. The area is at the west end of the building.
This headquarters is actually one of four physical presences the association has in the county, said Gilbertson of Diamond Bluff, who also chairs the Mississippi River Bluffs Chapter. The others are at a storage unit in Hager City, the River Bluffs History Center in Bay City and a nearby log cabin. Prior to situating at the courthouse in the early 1990s, the main outlet was at the UW-River Falls library archives.
With the additional space, the association is able to accept more donated items, she said. The group is seeking more members, too, and toward that end the board of directors is examining ways to make participation less of a time commitment, Vice President Donna O'Keefe said.
The 10-member board met Wednesday and began formulating a strategic plan for the next two-to-eight years, she said. They're seeking public input; for more information, phone 273-6611 and leave a message. Besides O'Keefe and Gilbertson, the board officers are: John Norquist, president, Pat Mory, secretary, Kathryn Deiss, corresponding secretary, and Harold Henn, treasurer, while the directors are: Eileen Gulbranson, Gene Olson, Ed Sjostrom, Sam Kittelson, Nick Schommer and Jerry Voje.
Plans are being made for an open house at the headquarters, with the date to be announced. Normal hours there are Mondays through Thursdays from 1 to 4 p.m., though the hours occasionally change because the office is staffed by volunteers.
Gilbertson praised Al Huppert and Jerry Forss of the courthouse maintenance crew for helping with the recent move. There were plenty of shelves and file cabinets, plus a large locked cabinet to be transported. Two van loads of items went to Hager City, too.
"Without them, we'd never have gotten this far," she said, adding, "I think there may be some sore backs."

"It's simply not true," Marshall tells THR, adding that the film will feature the Aaron Cross character played by Jeremy Renner in the 2012 installment, The Bourne Legacy. "[Director] Justin Lin is working with Andrew Baldwin on an Aaron Cross script/story that they pitched us a few months ago. I talk to Justin all the time and the script is not ready. It's a summer movie, and if we don't start pre-production now, we can't make next summer. Therefore, it's a wise decision to move to 2016."
The narrative architect behind the Bourne film series, Tony Gilroy, takes the helm in the next chapter of the hugely popular espionage franchise that has earned almost $1 billion at the global box office: The Bourne Legacy. The writer/director expands the Bourne universe created by Robert Ludlum with an original story that introduces us to a new hero (Jeremy Renner) whose life-or-death stakes have been triggered by the events of the first three films. For The Bourne Legacy, Renner joins fellow series newcomers Rachel Weisz, Edward Norton, Stacy Keach and Oscar Isaac, while franchise veterans Albert Finney, Joan Allen, David Strathairn and Scott Glenn reprise their roles.

"My passion for those three things allowed me to give birth to Pearls and Grace. I thought if I could encourage even one -this blog was worth my time. If even one gets the revelation knowledge of who she is and how much He loves her then this blog is worth my time. If even one woman turns her heart back toward Him again- then it's worth it. If even one would be inspired or encouraged - then it's worth it. I never dreamed that it would actually happen. I just so desperately wanted to share what I have learned so that others would have a source of encouragement. I also wanted to share what He has done in my life. It is really something.
Most would never believe the adversity that I have lived through. I am full of gratitude for it.
You will see that for yourself while visiting here. I write from the heart. My prayer is that you would find hope, encouragement and inspiration here but most importantly that you would
find Him.
You are His Pearl.....walk in that truth."
i found myself sharing some of my tender secrets knowing that she would not judge me or condemn me
she's just like that....
i was humbled when sibi asked if she could do an interview with me. i know many of you are familiar with my story so you might just want to pass over that entry, however i strongly encourage you to drop in for a visit with Sibi.
i promise you will leave feeling the touch of His hand on your heart.
Sibi, i am honored to call you my friend
& ps...one of these days , we're meeting up in Seaside!!

Only For Women
Two of the world's best vibrators manufacturers have been in operation for less than ten years. They seized on the rising demand for quality sex toys, especially by women and started to manufacture aesthetically pleasing, top quality precision designed vibrators that have succeeded in causing plenty of powerful vibrations and shockwaves throughout the entire sex toy and novelty business.
In search of the best vibrators:
Jimmyjane began operations in 2004. It was founded by Ethan Imboden, a man described as possessing a unique blend of technical expertise, business savvy and aesthetic sophistication. Armed with these talents, Jimmyjane claim to have 'redefined the context of sexual well being combining sophisticated design with cutting edge technology.' Their philosophy is that if any objects should be beautiful and aesthetically pleasing they should be the objects we use for sex. They have since started to produce some of the best - and most expensive vibrators money can buy.
Jimmyjane make some of the best sex toys for women because they are based on cutting edge technology. The entry level jimmyjane vibrator is the Iconic Bullet, a very popular first-time vibrator. Both powerful and discreet, it's easy to slip into a purse and make a good travel companion.
Jimmyjane's Form series (Form 2, Form 3, Form 4 and Form 6) are revolutionary, compact designs offering more intense vibrations than any other product of its size. Each flexible ear is internally powered for dynamic stimulation.
But for those who have to have the last word in luxury when it comes to vibrators, there is the precious metal vibratos known as Little Something. The platinum retails at and the 24k gold limited edition version is adorned with an intricate heart and scroll etching – and the inscription of your choice. It's also said to be the quietest vibrator available. However the top of the line jimmyjane vibrator is the Little Platinum vibrator is encircled with 28 round-cut VS1 diamonds.
The idea to create some of the world's highly recommended vibrators as far is LELO is concerned, began following a failed shopping expedition. In 2003 in Stockholm, Sweden while searching for a 40th birthday present for the woman who had it all, a giant gap in the market was discovered. At that time it was by no means a prestiogious thing to be involved in the sex industry and success was far from a sure thing. But founders Felip Sedic, Eric Kalen and Carl Magnuson persevered. Today they own one of the most highly regarded sex toy manufactures in the world and have won numerous design awards for their top quality vibrators.
Their entry level vibrator is MIA which is not much bigger than a tube of lipstick. Their mid size vibrators include Iris, Ina, Mona, Gigi, Liv, Lily Nea, and Ella – all of which are considered to be some of the best vibrators on the planet.
Ladygasm is the place to go when looking for the best female sex toys. Ladygasm stocks a wide range of vibrators, some from top end manufacturers such as Doc Johnson and Swedish Exotica, and others from their own extensive range of quality vibrators. Check them out.

Thank you for visiting! I started this blog in response to friends who requested more of an insight into recent events in Iraq and Syria. I have worked in and studied the Middle and Near East for much of the last 14 years, more recently focussing on Iraq and the Levant. My aim is to share some of what I've learnt on subjects also often misrepresented or glossed over in the 24hr news cycle, and to guide readers to the most insightful and informed sources of further reading.
Faces of Iraq
When travelling in Uganda recently I met the founder-photographer of Humans of New York. I hadn't previously read his blog but quickly became hooked. When a phenomenon gets as large as his, people will always start to question and speculate on motives and methods. All I can say is that Brandon came across as a humble, genuine guy who was trying to show us all how beautiful and remarkable our fellow human beings are. This is what I would like to do with my writing, so I've decided to publish some mini-interviews while I'm in Iraq. It's a kind of homage to Humans of New York, but with longer stories.
I have a straight photo blog, with no background stories, on Tumblr.
I've had several occupations and interests in my life, most of them drawing me to Africa and the Middle East through academic study, NGO and government work. Thanks to a chance encounter on a remote island in 2013 I now also have a kind, handsome francophone influence who draws me towards the West Indies. I'm currently exploring the merits of writing as a full time occupation and am working on both a fiction and a non-fiction book.

Safeway Replaces Dominick's Chief
Pleasanton, Calif., Safeway Inc. has rotated Don Keprta into the top position at its Dominick's division. He replaces executive VP Bruce Everette, who is returning to Pleasanton from Dominick's Chicago headquarters to take on broader retail responsibilities at the parent company.
Keprta most recently served as Dominick's VP of retail support.
Linens 'n Things Agrees to Takeover
Clifton, N.J., Linens 'n Things has agreed to be acquired in a $1.3 billion deal that will take the chain private. The home-furnishings retailer, which has been struggling with stiff competition from discounters and specialty chains, will be acquired by a newly formed company controlled by Apollo Management. Under the terms of the agreement, Linens 'n Things stockholders are to receive $28 per share in cash.
"Apollo is investing in our concept, our company and our future, which will lead to additional new opportunities for all our associates and our business partners," said Norman Axelrod, chairman and CEO, Linens 'n Things.
The merger is expected to close in the first or early second quarter of 2006.
Wal-Mart Opens 2nd Experimental Supercenter
Aurora, Colo., Wal-Mart stores opened an experimental "green" supercenter in Aurora, Colo., on Tuesday. The 206,00-sq.-ft. store features numerous energy-saving and environmentally friendly features, including wind and solar power, waste-oil boilers, porous pavements, radiant floor heating and fabric-duct air systems to heat and cool the building efficiently.
This is the second of two experimental stores planned by the discounter. The first, in McKinney, Texas, opened this past summer. The goal for both units was to reduce the amount of energy and natural resources required to operate and maintain the stores, reduce the amount of raw materials needed to construct the facilities, and substitute, when appropriate, renewable materials.
"Wal-Mart wants to be a leader in corporate responsibility for the environment and our shareholders," says Pat Curran, executive VP of Wal-Mart USA. "We want to continue our efforts and education about environmental sustainability and how it applies to our business."

The way a repo works is that let's say you owe $10k at the time of repo, the finance company puts the car for auction. If at auction they receive $10k, you would be free and clear. However, if they only receive $7k for the car at auction, then you are still liable for the $3k that remains due.Conversely if you owed $3k on the car and it sold at auction for $7k, they would actually owe you the $4k excess. So yes you have to pay for whatever is still owed after the car was auctioned. If it is a recent repo, you will need to wait until the car is sold before you will have your accurate remaning balance.
Repayment is the only way to get the current negative account changed over to "Paid and closed." However, do note that the late payments, and the listing that it was repo'd will stay on your account for 7 year, but it is much better for your credit if it is paid and closed as opposed to remaing due.

Fender Stratocaster 50th Anniversary Edition Case
This guitar is no longer for sale (sold on 2008-08-10)
Price : US $750.00
This is a beautiful candy apple red 2004 U.S.A. Fender 50th Anniversary Edition Stratocaster in excellent condition. It's only a few years old and has been played very little and treated with care. It looks beautiful and sounds amazing and is a collectible edition. I'm only selling it because I'm downsizing my extensive guitar collection. Please feel free to ask any questions. Also included is a sturdy black hard shell case. SHIPPING IS FREE WITHIN THE U.S. I will also ship to Europe but the free shipping does not apply and actual shipping cost to your location will be required. Check my feedback and bid with confidence.
On Aug-09-08 at 20:29:00 PDT, seller added the following information:
NOTE: IT HAS COME TO MY ATTENTION THAT THIS IS NOT REALLY A '50TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION' STRATOCASTER. Apparently Fender misleadingly put a '50th Anniversary' back plate on many or all 2004 USA Fender Strats. It looks like genuine anniversary edition ones only came out in Sunburst color and have a special number on the backplate, which mine doesn't have. So this is a regular 2004 strat as far as I can tell.
This guitar is sold (sold on 2008-08-10)

Mutt does not change the "unread" flag on the IMAP server and other Mutt questions
I am currently evaluating if Mutt fits my needs and so far it is working fine, but there are some minor annoyances.
At first let me describe my setup:
I am running a separate machine which fetches the mails from my different mail accounts using fetchmail, those mails are sorted into different folders and offered via IMAP using dovecot and dovecot-sieve. I do this because I want to keep my mail in sync on different machines. This part is working fine.
I then connect with my mail-clients to the server and read my mail.
This all works fine with different mail-clients, i can read, delete and move the mail.
Now my main issue with Mutt:
But for some reason unknown to me Mutt is not flagging read mail as read, it still appears as new mail when connecting from a different machine. this is not happening with other mail clients, like Thunderbird or Claws-Mail.
I have read through the documentation and ton of muttrc-files posted all over the net, but couldn't find an option to change that behavior. Manually setting it to new or read with Shift+n also does not change the flag on the server.
I would be thankful for any hint that helps me to solve that issue.
Some minor issues with Mutt
As I stated before, my mail is sorted into different folders on the server. Mutt has an overview about the folders I specified as mailbox, which I can access by pressing c? and Tab. it shows an overview of my folders and the number of new mails, but for some reason that number is never updated, so I don't see if new mail arrives while at that view. Is there an option to change that?
If not, does anyone now of an mail notification daemon that supports IMAP and embeds itself into the systray area of my panel? My searches on the net only found really old applications that are discontinued and won't compile on modern systems (I am using Slackware 14) or applications that are specifically for Gmail.
My .muttrc
set spoolfile="imaps://tobi:MYPASSWORD@server/"
I don't know what the problem was, but I have rewritten the .muttrc from scratch, following this guide (which I can oly recommend for the Mutt beginner) and now it is working without showing the aforementioned symptoms, although I still haven't found a configuration option for that.
The only thing that I still need is a notification program for the systray, but I will research that further and open a new thread for that if necessary.

Computer spamming usb unplug sound/lag every time it does so.
The last thing I did was change the system locale to japanese and mess with a few of the language bar settings, while playing league of legends i started getting the sound of a USB being unplugged every other second and the computer would lag, not the keyboard, or mouse, the hole computer. Also when i did try typing during it my keyboard was typing weird character (not japanese or english).
So i reset system locale to default and set all the language bar settings back to what they were.
It was still happening, so i turned the computer off again and unplugged ALL USBs it was still happening...
So i just started it up left it for a minute or so and it stopped.
But now it has started yet again, i thought it was fixed apparently not.
Edit: It doesn't just have the USB unplug sound it sometimes has the USB plug in sound too but not as often as the unplug sound.

As rookies and select vets report to Lehigh this afternoon, we still don't know if Brian Westbrook will show up with the remaining vets on Thursday, but we do know he seems close to hiring agent J.R. Rickert, who represents fellow Eagles running back Correll Buckhalter. A source close to the situation said Westbrook is expected to make an announcement today or tomorrow.
Rickert is affiliated with Peter Schaffer and Lamont Smith, the agents Lito Sheppard fired last week in favor of Drew Rosenhaus. Rickert is based is Niskayuna, N.Y., though, and the Schaffer group is based in Colorado. Rickert is originally from South Jersey and graduated from Holy Cross High in Delran. His father lives in Pennsauken.
He also represents Eagles fullback Jason Davis and center Jamaal Jackson. Westbrook apparently also has discussed his situation with his original agent Tony Agnone, whom he fired in favor of Fletcher Smith in 2005, but Westbrook is believed to be ready to go wtih Rickert, as he tries to upgrade the 5-year, $25 million contract extension he signed in 2005.
Rickert, Schaffer and Smith have more clients on the Eagles than any other group of agents.

Congratulations Mayra Cardenas! Our 2011-2012 Youth of the Year!
February 21st, 2012
"I came into the Club just wanting a place to hang out and have fun with friends, but over a period of time it became much more than that … The Club has been there for me in the good times and in the bad times. Whether I needed advice of just someone to talk to, everyone there was always there for me." –Mayra Cardenas, 2011-2012 Youth of the Year.
Each year we take time to recognize Club members who have demonstrated outstanding leadership, character, service to the Club and Community. These are young people who truly embody what it means to be a member of Boys & Girls Clubs. Three Candidates competed in the 2011 Youth of the Year competition: Mayra Cardenas a 17-year-old senior, Paris Madison a 16-year-old junior and Daniel Vargas a 17-year-old junior all have been Club members since 2008. Each Club member submitted applications, which contained 12 reference letters and two personal essays.
Candidates were then interviewed by the judges who rated them based on their written and verbal responses, poise and knowledge about the Club. The selected Candidate goes on to represent our organization at the state competition in April. The Youth of the Year is a very prestigious honor – this Club member becomes the face of our organization for one year. Boys & Girls Clubs of Grand Rapids Youth Commonwealth's Youth of the Year winner is Mayra Cardenas.
Fifth Third Bank was the lead sponsor and host of the event on Wednesday, February 1, 2012. There were 85 in attendance including Donors, Club members, the three Candidates, Staff and Community partners.
"Now it's my turn to succeed and give them someone to be proud of in return." –Mayra Cardenas
