I won't be repetitive and reprint all my 2008 goals over here. If you'd like an in-depth look at them, I have them up on my blog. I have quite a bit more than last year and I'm feeling ready to tackle each and every one, all at once. I must pace myself.
So I'm setting monthly and weekly goals. It's good to have focus.
To kick off the New Year, I'm going to finish my current short story ("Telling it True"--which took a serious plot twist yesterday), finish reading the Reven novel so Kami and I can hammer out the final version, and figure out where my novels are going and how best to get them there. Next week, and probably the rest of the month, needs to be all about the novels.
As for revisions, I have four short stories on my plate, one of which will be chewed up by INK this Friday. I also have The Trinket Box to transcribe/edit, Reven coming up on the table, and The Inkwell Cult bluescreen. Which makes me realize I need to set some revision goals or I'll never keep it all straight. Not a bad problem to have considering where I was this same time last year. So this week I'll try to get another 15 pages of The Trinket Box finished.
In other news, I found this interesting revision plan. I like it. It will help me cut Purgatory down by another 110 words. It's Ken Rand's 10% Solution. Thanks to Jim Van Pelt for posting about it on his great New Year's Resolutions for Newbies (and lapsed Oldies), which has fine advice as well.

I don't know if you would like a copy of the book in your hands, but I do have a copy I could loan you. I'll try to remember to bring it to the INK meeting.

Other partners involved
University of Leicester (UK)
University of Wuerzburg (DE)
Actual Analytics (UK)
- Actual (UK): Software development & training (2 months, year 1/2)
- University of Leicester (UK): Natural diapause method (1 month, year 1/2),
- University of Wuerzburg: Tissue specific in situ (3 months, year 2/3).
To uncover the genetic architecture of overlapping phenotypes that requires biological timing and
unravels their evolutionary connection with the clock genes of Nasonia.
- Test effect of temperature/day-length on Nasonia clock gene evolution in lines from Europe and N. America.
- Validate the function of clock genes in Nasonia life history traits including diapause
- Establish genetic variation for biological timing in field-lines and selected and unselected laboratory lines in Quantitative Trait Analysis, Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) based Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS) and candidate gene approaches.
- Functional validation of clock genes in life history traits by RNAi and in situ analysis of gene expression and protein abundance (antibody based)
Genetic basis of cyclical life-history and behavioural traits in Nasonia
The parasitoid wasp Nasonia vitripennis has a cosmopolitan distribution and many of its life history traits show adaptation to local environments. We have shown a clear, but complex, genetic basis for diapause induction, courtship behaviour and (interspecific) mate discrimination. All these traits involve time-keeping and detection of fluctuating environmental factors such as temperature. The evolution of these traits may be heavily influenced by the adaptive potential of clock-genes. In this project we intend to unravel the connection between these adaptive life history traits and the time-keeping genes of Nasonia by using field-lines from different latitudes as well as selected and unselected laboratory lines. We will use Quantitative Trait Analysis, Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) based Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS) and candidate gene approaches to uncover the genetic architecture of these traits. In particular, this project will aim at answering the following questions:
- Which clock-genes are involved in the genetic networks that underlie diapause induction, male courtship and (inter)specific mate discrimination?
- How do these networks overlap both with respect to these clock-genes and other genes?
- How is clinal variation in diapause induction reflected in the variation of (clock) genes within the circadian genetic network?
For this purpose an additional set of lines will be collected along a comparable latitudinal gradient in North America, which has the same day-length variation combined with a different temperature gradient. This will allow independent investigation of temperature and day-length variation on clock gene evolution. Functional validation of clock genes in life history traits will be performed by RNAi and in situ analysis of gene expression and protein abundance (antibody based). In addition, knockdown will also be used to assess any effects of clock genes on an ultradian rhythm in courtship. It is known that clock genes can affect the timing of short-term rhythmic oscillations in Drosophila and Bactrocera courtship elements. These activities complement those in WP1/3/5 and diapause candidate genes implicated in Drosophila will also be examined in Nasonia an dvice-versa.
Results and milestones
- Month 12 Project plan & personal development plan for individual training requirements
- Month 30 Field-lines phenotypic characterization; plans for publication.
- Month 40 Field-lines genetic characterization; first publication submitted.

The epic five round battle between Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz will no doubt go down in UFC history, and this week never before seen backstage footage was released that detailed the fight's aftermath.
McGregor walked away with the majority decision win, but had difficulty actually walking after the massive amount of leg kicks he unleashed on Diaz.
In the video you can see McGregor using crutches, still in his fight kit, returning back to his locker room. We later learned that he sustained heavy bruising to his shin as a result of the kicks.
McGregor is heard yelling, "Doubt me now!" to the random people lining the hallways backstage, and in a gritty display of toughness, the "Notorious" even stopped to take a photo with a fan, despite being in what we can only assume was a serious amount of physical pain.
Before the video ends, you can hear him joking with his coaches, "Surprise, surprise motherf--kers, the king is back."

How can you create two income streams from one property without compromising on quality, tenant experience and aesthetic appeal?
Blogger: Paul Wilson, Educating Property Investors, We Find Houses and We Find Finance
A number of factors, such as a moving population, key infrastructure, affordability and the rise of mini CBDs have investors now searching for different types of properties in different locations.
In the 1980s, investors were searching for spacious three-bedroom, two-bathroom houses with a backyard, on a decent block of land located 20 kilometres from the city.
These days, investors are looking for compact yet functional apartments or townhouses within walking distance to amenities like shops and transport, and ideally located in a satellite city.
Meanwhile, the criteria for what makes a good investment will never change – find an area with good potential for capital growth and ensure the house's condition and features are of a great standard, among other things.
As a buyer's agent, I've seen first-hand the shift towards different types of properties in different locations and I've made some interesting observations.
In a previous article, I touched on co-ownership – this method of buying is a great way to fast-track your way into the property market. But if the co-ownership structure doesn't suit your portfolio, you might consider another option: dual property – also known as a dual occupancy development, a duplex and, in some cases, a townhouse.
A dual property is effectively two conjoined properties on one block of land that share at least one common wall. Each dwelling has no shared rooms or entrances and features its own bedrooms, bathrooms, living areas and garage. The property may be strata or non-strata titled, but that makes for a whole other article.
Buying a property that has two dwellings on one title enables you to get the best of both worlds – a place to live plus an investment where someone else is helping you to service the loan, all while receiving the many deductions and advantages of holding an investment property.
I find the term 'duplex' has a stigma about it, probably resulting from their old reputation of having an unattractive design and being located in run-down suburbs – but times have changed.
Modern innovation has changed the way duplexes are designed and built, boosting their street cred by appearing as one big house rather than two, and featuring inside everything the post-'90s investor is looking for in terms of fixtures and fittings.
The obvious bonus about buying a duplex is the potential to receive two income revenues on what is effectively one property. Other benefits of buying a duplex include:
- Possible positive cash flow from the outset, if well-purchased
- Affordability in high-demand areas
- The range of options in living arrangements: sell both or you live in one, rent out the other.
The latter is particularly attractive for those just entering the market, as you can subsidise your own housing costs.

Skimboard Bags
Board Bags
There are basically two different kinds of board bags, travel bags and board socks.
Board socks are basically little fabric covers that you slip over your board to protect it from getting dinged while the board is in the back of your truck (or wherever). They are not meant to, and wont protect your board on an airline flight.
Travel bags are made of Nylon and are stuffed with a small amount of foam padding to protect the board. They have a zipper that runs down the side to get the board in and out. Travel bags by themselves also will not protect your board on an airline flight. However, if you buy a travel bag that is significantly bigger than your board, you can stuff towels, wet suits and whatever else along the rails of the board inside the bag (see tips section). This will protect the board from dings and Murphy's Law. Travel Bags run about 70 bucks whereas board socks run about 25 bucks. Victoria makes both of these products. I do not really see the point of board socks however, because boards rarely get dinged in your trunk. My advice is to save up and buy the real thing!

Judicial activism, not gay marriage, was the focus as conservatives launched the "No Wiggins" bus tour on Monday. Iowans for Freedom, version 2.0, is aimed at convincing voters not to retain Supreme Court Justice David Wiggins. He is one of the judges who thrust same-sex marriage upon the state.
The 2010 effort succeeded in ousting three of the seven justices who ruled unanimously in favor of gay marriage in the infamous Varnum decision. More than half a million Iowans voted "No" on retention. Bob Vander Plaats is once again spearheading the campaign
"In 2010, Iowans learned this is not a radical issue," Vander Plaats said during a rally outside the State Capitol building. "This is not a Republican issue. Democrats, independents who are concerned about freedom, they voted with us to vote those three justices out and I believe they're going to vote with us again."
2012 Iowa Caucus winner Rick Santorum joined in the effort two years ago. Bringing much more clout this time, Santorum returned to the state for the first day of the 17-stop bus tour.
"You have an opportunity here in Iowa to continue what you did two years ago, and you struck a blow," Santorum said. "But now you have an opportunity to maybe even tip the balance with a fourth justice. So you have four new judges on the court and an opportunity maybe even to reverse this horrific decision."
Same-sex marriage was an afterthought at the rally in Des Moines. Although the speakers remain vehemently opposed to the practice, their remarks centered upon judges making law, instead of their proper role of interpreting the law.
"This is not just about marriage. It's not just about morality. This is about the constitutional process that our Founding Fathers set in place so long ago and the Iowa Bar Association worked to put in place this retention vote," said Tamara Scott, said co-chair for Iowans for Freedom. "And yet, when the people decide to use it, they're criticized as politicizing it."
There was little pushback from the justices two years ago. That is not the case this time. The Iowa State Bar Association is shadowing the "No Wiggins" effort around the state, holding rallies in the same cities in an effort to keep the justice on the court.
"Quite frankly, anyone associated with the Iowa State Bar Association and any attorneys speaking on their behalf should be flat out ashamed," Vander Plaats said.
The Family Leader CEO referenced a survey of state bar association members which showed Justice Wiggins receiving a 63 percent approval rating, the second lowest of any other judge who appears on the 2012 ballot. The average score was 90 percent. Vander Plaats said it's "unconscionable" to retain a judge who essentially scored a D-minus.
"What they said in that scoring instrument is Judge Wiggins is arrogant. He's confrontational. He's not all that bright and above all, he's lazy," Vander Plaats told the crowd of two dozen supporters. "Now, ladies and gentleman, take that Varnum decision out of there. He does not deserve to be on the bench and we need to vote Wiggins out on November 6."
Polls show that acceptance of gay marriage is increasing. The "No Wiggins" campaign leaders hope that some day Iowans will be allowed to decide the issue's fate, instead of seven judges. While gay marriage remains mostly a partisan issue, Iowans for Freedom believe judicial activism should concern everyone.
"People of faith and no faith, even if you don't agree with my position on the issue of marriage, understand the danger that allowing judges to determine what the law of the land is," Rick Santorum said. "Running roughshod over the constitution, the laws of the state, is a danger to people on both sides of the aisle. There is as much a chance of conservative judicial activism as there as is for liberal judicial activism."

Some of my 'friends' say things like, "You're so gay right now" and "That's so gay!" All the time. I don't want to be friends with someone like that, but I still don't want to cut them out of my life. What should I do?
- Sabi*
Sometimes hurtful, offensive expressions make their way into everyday language. Some of the people who say these things also have intolerant attitudes — but not always.
Unfortunately, people often use expressions like these thoughtlessly, without meaning to offend anyone. That doesn't make the words any less harmful or rude. But it's possible that your friends aren't aware of how offensive their words really are or the negative attitudes those words reflect.
Start by talking to just one of these friends. Explain that the phrases are offensive and rude, even though they may not be meant that way. Ask your friend to help you influence the others to stop using these expressions. Then, when you're in the group and someone says one of these things, speak up with calm confidence. Say something like, "Let's cut out the anti-gay phrases — they're ugly and unfair, whether you mean it or not."
Don't be surprised if you get some pushback. Your friends may tease you to try to make you feel bad for speaking up. They might say things like, "You're such a goody-goody" or "You're too sensitive." Don't let that throw you off. Stand your ground. Have a calm comeback ready, like, "No, I'm telling you what I really believe and what I know is fair." Or, "You can't change my mind by teasing me." Or, "You guys don't realize how bad these things sound. What you're saying is so 1990s. We're over that kind of prejudiced language now."
If your friends push back with teasing and comments, you also can choose not to respond at all. Just make sure you stay calm and confident, and don't let it ruffle you. You may notice that the offensive language disappears from the conversation because you mentioned it. The friend you asked to help may back you up.
It's good that you recognize the message these words convey, and that you want to stand up for fairness. A change for the better can start with one person — like you!

Flashback to 1969. It was after dinner and I was sprawled out on the living room floor. My old man told me to pay attention to what was about to come across our flickering black and white television. A craggy faced man appeared on the screen, illuminated by a single overhead light.. "Hello. I'm Johnny Cash." He launched into "Folsom Prison Blues." I was stunned. A man with a guitar and a story to tell. I never got over it.
A couple of years later a friend and I grabbed a bus over to Ford City, a local shopping center. We went see "The Concert for Bangladesh." It was a benefit concert that had been released as a movie organized and hosted by George Harrison. The lineup included many top performers including Ringo Starr, Leon Russell, Eric Clapton and others. Somewhere in the middle of the show George Harrison stepped up to the mic and announced "Now a good friend of us all, Mr. Bob Dylan." The crowd (it was filmed at New York's Madison Square Garden) went nuts. I was curious because I had absolutely no idea who this man was. He walked out in a jean jacket and picked an acoustic guitar. He sang "A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall," "Just Like a Woman," and "Mr. Tambourine Man." I immediately knew this was someone I needed to pay attention to and I immediately sought out his records. A man with a guitar and a story to tell.
Now, almost forty years after hearing Cash and Dylan, I'm still mesmerized. It still comes down to the basic format - a guitar and a story. It pervades any genre whether it's Irishmen Shane McGowan, Christy Moore, Scottish folk legend Archie Fisher, old rock n rollers John Hiatt, Neil Young, and Richard Thompson or new artists such as Justin Townes Earle and Jay Farrar of Son Volt. A guitar and a story to tell.
I thought of these things last Friday night as I headed home from a gig. I hit a "G" chord, closed my eyes, began to sing and I was still that kid watching Johnny Cash and Bob Dylan for the first time. A man with a guitar and a story to tell. Cheers.

I finished the remaining three pages and mostly finished embellishing the cover. It is clear acrylic so you can see the first page behind it, and I didn't want it to be plain. So I chose the first page behind it to be one that had some empty space, and last night I wrapped a wide ribbon around the clear cover so it would lay over the empty space. On top of that I put a metal-rimmed tag with a sticker on it, and on the backside of the cover I'll add another (made with love etc. etc. Christmas 2011), I just need to get it written out and attached. Then it will be done and I'll need to take pictures of it before wrapping it up.
Bought a pack of 25 card bases and envelopes yesterday also, and a new pack of ATG adhesive since the mini-album ran me through a lot of it. All I need to do this weekend is figure out what to glue down, ha ha.

Illegals risk their lives in talcum powder lorry bound for Britain
Seventeen refugees risked their lives trying to get to Britain in a lorry packed with talcum powder.
A lorry driver alerted police when he heard banging inside his vehicle
Rescuers took three hours to free the migrants, who were all teenagers except one, after they were found by police in Calais on Tuesday morning.
All of them – eight Afghans, eight Syrians and an Iranian – needed medical treatment for dehydration and shock.
They later joined the 2,000 migrants gathered at the French port hoping to get to England.
Officials said people were taking increasingly dangerous risks to cross the Channel.
Some had launched makeshift rafts with bed sheets as sails. Others had been found hiding in refrigerated lorries or clinging to the axles of vehicles.
If they seek to evade immigration control, they risk their lives and will get caught
Two people were rescued from the sea after swimming half a mile from the shore in a desperate bid to board a ferry.
Meanwhile, nine suspected illegal immigrants were found in a tanker in Kent yesterday.
It is believed the driver heard banging from inside his lorry and stopped on the M20 near Maidstone to alert police.
The stowaways were taken to the Home Office immigration enforcement centre in Dover.
A Home Office spokeswoman said: "If people have genuine need of protection, they should claim asylum in the first safe country they reach.
"But if they seek to evade immigration control, they risk their lives and will get caught."

Fugleberg recipient of law enforcement career recognition
John Fugleberg, West Fargo, was honored Wednesday with an event marking his retirement after a long career in law enforcement, beginning as a young deputy in a small North Dakota community and culminating with distinguished service in the North Dakota Bureau of Criminal Investigation and work in special areas of law enforcement.
Law enforcement officials at numerous levels, from around the region filled the West Fargo VFW, joined by court personnel and other officials from the local and state level to wish Fugleberg well.
After praising his long record of service and unsung accomplishment, Rep. Kim Koppelman, who represents West Fargo in the North Dakota House of Representatives and chairs the Judiciary Committee, emphasized the point, in a presentation honoring Fugleberg.
"The most unfortunate reality, on an occasion like this, is that most of the work you do is behind the scenes, undetected, and unnoticed by the general public," Koppelman said. "That's as it must be, in the chosen field in which you've demonstrated not just competence, but excellence. It is, therefore, my honor to offer you the thanks and congratulations you so richly deserve, on behalf of our community and state, for a job well done!"
Koppelman also read a letter from Gov. Jack Dalrymple, commending Fugleberg on his service, and presented a plaque from the Governor.
Chief Deputy Attorney General Tom Trenbeath presented Fugleberg with a letter from North Dakota Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem, followed by comments from several law enforcement colleagues and other well wishers.

The TLC-4S controller connects to any HD TriCaster including the TC40, TC-Mini, TC1 and VMC1. The software supports both the red program and green preview tally lights. You can also globally enable or disable the talent tally via the software with no jumpers to change.
Another new feature lets you assign any of the six tally outputs to any of the switcher inputs so assign a tally to a network input or a DDR*.
One of the things that sets the TLC-4S apart from a simple adapter cable is the intercom pass through so you can run both tally and intercom on a single Cat5 cable run. Connect your intercom base station into the xlr on the TLC-4S then connect your beltpacks to the multi-purpose port on the tally lights.
*TC1 currently only supports tally on the first four inputs
- Six assignable tally outputs.
- Program tally and Preview tally
- 'Talent' tally (global software enable/disable)
- Intercom/audio pass through
- Compatible with all metaSETZ tally lights and relay units
System requirements:
TriCaster TC1 all versions
IP Series VMC1 all versions
TriCaster Mini, 410, 460 or 860 all versions
TriCaster 40, 455, 855 rev 6 software

Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi released the following statement today after the U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals declined to rehear the February decision ruling Proposition 8 -- the California measure banning same-sex marriage -- unconstitutional. This measure has been found unconstitutional by two federal courts:
"Today, Prop 8 took another step toward its rightful place in the dustbin of history. By declining to rehear this case, the Ninth Circuit reaffirmed a victory for civil rights for the LGBT community and for all Californians.
"I commend the plaintiffs on their success, their courage in challenging this discriminatory measure, and their willingness to lead the charge in the fight for marriage equality. With two courts now declaring Prop 8 unconstitutional, we pledge to keep up the fight to ensure every family in our state and across our nation enjoys fair and equal treatment under the law."

A burglary occurs when an individual unlawfully enters a dwelling, structure, or conveyance with the intent to commit an offense therein. Based on this definition, a burglary may occur in a house, vehicle, or other structure if the person entered with the intent to commit any offense inside. This definition includes conduct not ordinarily considered when a person thinks about the crime of burglary. For instance, if someone unlawfully reaches into an open car window to slap the person sitting inside, it is considered a burglary whether physical contact is made or not. Even if that person did not meet their target, they entered the vehicle with the intent to do so, and have thereby committed a burglary. Even under circumstances in which a person has obtained entry to a place by invitation, license, or public access, remaining in such a place surreptitiously, after permission has been withdrawn, or to commit a forcible felony will still qualify as burglary under Florida law.

Burglary is an incredibly serious offense that is vigorously prosecuted across the state of Florida. If a person commits an assault or battery, is or becomes armed with a dangerous weapon, or causes damage to the dwelling or structure in excess of $1,000, it is a first degree felony, punishable by a maximum of 30 years' imprisonment. This rule can bring about severe results for what may otherwise be considered a minor crime. Under our previous scenario, if the person was successful in slapping the other individual seated inside the vehicle, that person will have committed a burglary with a battery, punishable by 30 years in prison.
If no assault or battery occurs, and a deadly weapon is not used, it is a second degree felony if a burglary occurs in a dwelling or in a structure or conveyance and another person is inside at the time the burglary is committed. Otherwise, burglary is a third degree felony.
Regarding the "intent to commit an offense" portion of this statute, Florida law provides a legal presumption for finding a person intended to commit an offense if prosecutors can show that the person entered the structure or conveyance stealthily and without consent of the owner or occupant of the premises. At trial, this presumption allows a jury to presume that a person entered a place with the intent to commit an offense inside upon showing that person did not have permission to be there, and that they entered or remained in the property in an effort to go undetected.
Like most charges involving a person as a victim, the intimate and personal nature of the crime of burglary typically results in significant involvement by the victim throughout the criminal case. As a result, these cases are prosecuted aggressively. It is important to have a criminal trial lawyer with experience handling burglary charges who can help you understand both the legal and personal obstacles presented in these cases. Should you find yourself charged with burglary, do not hesitate to contact the Law Office of John M. Phillips to set up a free consultation to discuss your case.

Happy 2017! To kick off the new year, I wanted to share a few of my favorite things. These are productw I'd buy again in a heartbeat, no questions asked, because they consistently perform. In fact, in many cases, we re-purchased these items for our "home away from home" (aka the boat) because we couldn't do without them.
Jojoba oil (pronounced ho-ho-ba)
I started using jojoba oil about a decade ago, and it's one of the only personal care products that I've consistently used for years. It's light, unscented and very moisturizing. In winter, I add a few drops to my daytime face lotion, and at night I pat it on top of my night cream to lock in the moisture. In a pinch, it works well as a makeup remover and for dry hands and chapped lips.
Voluspa Candles
I first found these candles at Anthropologie, but they are sold at many places and are now pretty much the only candle I'll buy. Voluspa candles are made from coconut wax, not paraffin or soy wax, and come in lightly perfumed fragrances. These candles are low smoke and, unlike many other candle brands, you can burn these for hours without having to worry about an overpowering scent or burning smell. The scent pictured above is my favorite.
Face cleansing oils
Face cleansing oils became popular a few years ago, and ever since I tried my first one, I've been hooked. Despite their gentle nature, cleansing oils do an amazing job of melting away makeup – especially hard to remove eye make; they work better than any other cleaner or eye makeup remover I've ever used, and I no longer wake up with dark rings of leftover mascara around my eyes. In fact, since finding cleansing oils, I have thrown out all my eye makeup removers.
If you wear light make up, a cleansing oil may be all you need. Since I wear eyeliner and multiple layers of mascara, I follow up with another light cleanser (Purpose facewash) after washing off the oil just to make sure my face is squeaky clean.
I've tried all of the brands above and each works very well, but the Tranquil Cleans Off Oil from Mac is my favorite.
Mr. Heater (Buddy) Portable Heater
Our sailboat has a heating and cooling unit that runs off 30 amp electricity, but in early spring and late fall, when we are at anchor with no access to shore power, we lack the power capacity to run our heating unit (or a space heater on DC power).
This little propane heater (whom we affectionately call Mr. Buddy) pumps out a surprising amount of heat and works very well to take the chill out of the air in the morning or at bedtime. The indoor-safe heater runs off of a 1-pound propane cylinder and lasts about 4 hours on high or 6 hours on low. (It gets so hot in our boat with this heater, we usually run it for 30 minutes at a time and then turn it off.) We always run the heater with a window cracked open, but the unit does come with a built-in low oxygen alarm and turns off automatically if it's tipped over.
After enjoying the warmth of our heater, our friends bought and use the smaller Little Buddy version on their power boat (and the company also makes a size larger than ours).
Ceramic knives
I first came across these Kyocera ceramic knives at Crate and Barrel, but I ended up purchasing this perfect set of three from Amazon for the boat (it comes with a large chopping knife, a mid-sized serrated knife and a small peeling knife…in my opinion, the three most important knives). Everyone who uses these knives on the boat raves about how well they work; they are the sharpest and best knives we've ever bought (even better than our more expensive Wüsthof set at home).
The only downside to these knives is that because they are ceramic, they can break if dropped and do stain if you leave pigmented foods on them for too long before rinsing (such as beets), but a swipe of lemon juice helps get rid of the stains.
Philips Sunrise Alarm clock
This sunrise simulating alarm clock is an investment, but Nick and I think it's worth every penny. The clock uses a natural light to gradually wake you up each morning, starting with a low warm, orange glow all the way to a bright, white light. In case the bright light doesn't wake you, it also has options for five natural wake-up sounds (we chose chirping birds). We love this alarm clock, especially for dark, winter mornings, since it is a much more natural, pleasant way to start the day (compared to a buzzing alarm clock).
Cutting boards
While most chefs swear by wood cutting boards, I love this set of four cutting mats from Bed, Bath & Beyond. They are a great size for chopping bigger items, flexible for easily funneling ingredients into bowls or pots, and the rubber grip on the back means they don't shift around on the counter. They are dishwasher safe and very well made; we do lots of cooking and chopping and these have held up well for several years. And having four mats available means there is always one clean to use. I liked these so much, I bought the smaller-sized four pack for the boat.
Cozyna mugs
Nick and I carry mugs of coffee to work each day in our work bags and have struggled for years to find a good mug that stays hot AND doesn't leak. (I can't tell you how many times I've cleaned coffee from the lining of my purses). We've had these mugs for almost a year and are still so impressed with how well they work; I've never had a leak and they keep drinks hot for hours. Just like everything else, we bought extra mugs to keep on the boat to keep our morning coffee warm while we are underway.
What about you, do you have any favorite items you'd recommend?

Clemson is on what one may call 'a bit of a roll', especially along the defensive line. In the wake of the huge commitment of Robert Nkemdiche, the nation's top ranked prospect, Clemson has landed two more promising D-end prospects in ESPN 150 defender Elijah Daniel and now most recently four-star D-lineman Dane Rogers. Nkemdiche and Daniel, both top 100 players, were big commitments. But the addition of Rogers shouldn't be overlooked as we feel he is a fine prospect in his own right and may be a bit undervalued on the national scene.
Rogers has solid height and good bulk with a nice wingspan for his size. He is listed as a defensive end, but depending on physical development could end up playing inside or at least can offer some 'swing player' potential. Like his future linemates, Rogers possesses a good initial burst off the ball. He may not bring to the table the same type of natural athleticism, but the four-star out of North Carolina does display good recognition skills and plays with a good motor. Those things combined allow him to play a little faster as a defender than he might test. He needs to continue to develop and be more consistent with technique, but flashes the tools to be a productive defender against the run. He might not offer the same type of pass rush ability/upside as Nkemdiche or Daniel, but Rogers can pressure the quarterback and could be a player who develops into a good 'nickel rusher' in that group.
Rogers' commitment will not create the same type of buzz that the two previous Tigers D-line commits did, but this is still a really nice addition to Clemson's 2013 class. As I stated when Daniel committed, the way to make talented players like Nkemdiche even better and more dangerous is to surround them with other good players and now Clemson has done that by bringing on two other four-star defenders in Daniel and now Rogers. Also you can never have enough quality depth on your defensive line and Rogers gives Clemson yet another D-lineman in this class with the tools to develop into a very good college player. The commitment of Nkemdiche was huge and is clearly the big news, but the two more recent D-Line additions help to increase the value of and make that commitment even more impactful.

So, these last few weeks at work, I have been shredding, and shredding, and shredding. Which is another reason why my blogging has been so limited. Granted I just started blogging in February but still, I like blogging as much as I can and shredding has hindered that amount.
Back to shredding...so last week right before lunch I'm sitting at my desk sorting mail and my boss brings in this HUGE, GIGANTIC cart of stacks of boxes with personal files that have to be shredded. So, I got to do that. It was very annoying. The machines hates me and I hate them. They never work the way I want them to, they always jam up, they just, hate me.
So, I have been shredding, and shredding, and shredding for two weeks. It pretty much sucked, but I got it done. As of today. It was FANTASTIC! Its amazing how accomplishing the smallest thing can make such a BIG difference in someone's day.
So now, I can FINALLY go back to a normal days work and enjoy work without the horrid sound of the shredder, without the task of going through files from 1996 and then taking out dozens of bags of shredded paper and reloading the machine. Look, I know that shredding can seem like quite a lazy and easy job, but when you have as much shredding material as I did and have to do all your normal day tasks on top of it, it can become quite a handful.
BUT thanks to some help from my boss and some other co-workers the shredding is DONE! D.O.N.E. FOREVER!!!
Well...at least until the next group of people needing stuff shredded come in...

Sept. 12: The UPA has decided to parade its legislators before President Kalam in New Delhi tomorrow ahead of the hearing on the disqualification notices of three MLAs supporting the Opposition alliance.
Speaker Inder Singh Namdhari is to hold a daylong court to decide the fate of the three legislators Anosh Ekka, Stephen Marandi and Kamlesh Singh tomorrow, a day before the Arjun Munda government faces the confidence motion in the Assembly.
The UPA summoned all its MLAs, lodged in various parts of the country, to Delhi. Even Stephen, who, too, has to appear before the Speaker, left for the national capital.
However, the UPA is yet to get time from Rashtrapati Bhavan.
Former Congress MP R.K. Anand, a key strategist, said: We will get the time tomorrow morning. There should not be any problem. We want to show that the UPA has the numbers in its favour.
The move is a rerun of last years political drama when the NDA had paraded its legislators before the President. Kalam had later summoned the governor to know why he had invited Shibu Soren to form the government when the numbers were in favour of the NDA.
Once bitten, the Congress did not appear to be twice-shy as it asserted that it was willing to take another shot at propping up a government in Jharkhand. Union minister Subodh Kant Sahay, the MP from Ranchi, said all UPA constituents were in favour of a new government. Rule out any possibility of mid-term elections. Polls at this juncture will not serve any purpose and the development process will suffer, he said.
Sahay warned that the Centre would act if any attempt was made to use unfair means to win the trust vote.
The NDA, which tried to keep the morale of its MLAs intact by organising a dinner at Ranchi, asserted that it had the numbers in its favour. A crisis manager even claimed that four RJD legislators were ready to support the Munda government during the trust vote. Yet another move being considered in the NDA circles is that Inder Singh Namdhari will tender his resignation as Speaker before the trust vote and sit with the NDA camp.
In case of the disqualification of the three MLAs, the NDA and the UPA camps will be pegged at 39, including one nominated member, and 40 respectively. If Namdhari quits, the NDA strength will become 40. The appointment of a protem Speaker from the UPA will bring its number down to 39.
The BJP said it had the majority. Senior leader Venkaiah Naidu said the chief minister was Arjun, not Abhimanyu, who would emerge champion of champions.
Munda, however, skipped the dinner hosted by BJP Rajya Sabha member Ajay Maroo at Ranchi Club to consolidate the NDA members.

A lot of people have misconceptions about used clothing. They believe that the only thing that they'll find is decades out of date, that the places they shop at will be gross and that only poor people shop at those places. This couldn't be further from the truth. You can get all sorts of great deals by shopping for used clothing, and find some very stylish wares. Here are some tips for shopping for used clothing:
Set a Limit – Before you go out shopping, decide how much money you plan to spend that day. This will prevent you from going overboard, and make it more interesting. If you decide that you're only going to spend $20.00 that day, it will become a competition to see how much great stuff you can get for $20.00.
Go With a Pro – If you're new to shopping for used clothing, find out if any of your friends already do it. They'll be able to share the best places to go, and all the tips and tricks they know about the used clothing stores and shopping for used clothes in general. They'll also be able to give you a second opinion to help you figure out what looks good on you and what doesn't.
Try Things On – Sizes have varied quite a bit in the last couple of decades. Today's clothes have a much looser fit, so if there's a dressing room available, try on the clothing before taking it home with you.
Trash Your Prejudices – Many people think that thrift stores and used clothing shops are nasty dirty places. A few of them are, but the majority are high-quality stores in which you can get some great deals. Find a couple of shops that you like, and you'll never go back!
Keep an Eagle Eye – Nobody wants to go home and find out their new shirt has a button missing or their pants have an unwanted hole in them. Check over the items you intend to purchase very well and make sure there's not something there that would make you not want them.
Layers – Even if a shirt has a bit of a stain on a sleeve, it still might be worth getting. If it has a great color for wearing under a sweater, don't immediately pass it up.
Accessories – Used clothing stores are also great for accessories such as hats and belts. There's no reason to fork over $25.00 for a new belt when you can get one at a thrift store for just a few bucks.
Specials – Second hand clothing stores do run periodic specials, so watch out for sales.
Stock Rotation – If you go to the same store, ask when they rotate stock. They get new shipments of clothing on a regular basis, and often have extra stock in the back. If you go when the new stock's just been put out, you can the first chance at the new inventory, rather than just picking over what others didn't want.

Body Mass Index and Risk of Death (Infographic)
The research that this BMI infographic is based on found that a BMI between 20.0 and 24.9 is associated with the lowest risk of mortality from any cause in healthy non smoker adults. The researchers also included accurate estimates of the increased risk of death of overweight and obese individuals in comparison to individuals with a BMI of 20.0 to 24.9. Earlier research which looked at the risks of being overweight had been inconclusive, with a few revealing only a slightly higher risk of death while others showed a lower risk.

Stevenage v Tottenham FA Cup Betting Odds are being well covered for punters at highly popular online bookmaker Ladbrokes. The popular bookie has rolled out a great Money Back Special for the match, which sees League One side Stevenage host the highly flying, Premier League title challengers Spurs. Even though Harry Redknapp's men are away from home, the expected gulf in class is expected to pay off in the end for the White Hart Lane crew, as they take on the underdogs. Will the match result in Tottenham going goal crazy? If Spurs do bring their shooting boots to the match, then you could be in for some lost stake refunds on Stevenage v Spurs FA Cup Betting. If Tottenham turn up and score four or more goals in the match, then Ladbrokes will pay out refunds on all losing First Goalscorer bets. So great coverage on your First Goalscorer options here, and the insurance offered by Ladbrokes gives you the chance to jump into the market where Tottenham's Jermain Defoe and Emmanuel Adebayor are both trading as 3/1 favourites, while Spurs new boy Louis Saha is just back behind them at 7/2. Spurs will naturally carry the greater threat and have the class and firepower to put on a bit of a show, so the Ladbrokes Money Back Special on the First Goalscorer market could pay off for you. The highly popular online bookmaker Ladbrokes offer a free £50 bet for new customers registering an account with them. The bookie will match the value of your first stake on a new account with a free bet, up to the maximum value of £50, giving you some great free betting cash to enjoy.

Stevenage v Tottenham FA Cup Betting Odds
Stevenage to win: 9/1 at Bet365
Draw: 9/2 at Boylesports
Tottenham to win: 1/3 at Totesport
League One side Stevenage, who are challenging for a play off spot in League One at the moment, will be buoyed by their current good form in the league. Stevenage, sitting in sixth place in the division host Spurs on the back of two straight wins. In fact there have been six wins out of their last eight matches now for Stevenage in League One and so they will be confident of giving Spurs a good run for their money at Broadhall Way. Stevenage beat Reading away from home in the Third Round of this season's FA Cup, before heading home to earn a 1-0 victory over Notts County. Their reward for that was the great draw of Spurs at home, and naturally the lower league side will go into the match as firm underdogs, especially against a Tottenham side which continues to impress. Despite all the distractions surrounding Spurs boss Harry Redknapp due to his court case and him being linked to the England job, Redknapp insists that he remains focused on the job at hand at White Hart Lane. Spurs are still chasing down the two Manchester clubs in the Premier League title race, and have had a good week's rest after thumping Newcastle 5-0 in the league last weekend. So Spurs are in terrific form, having lost just one Premier League match in their last eight, and with the added presence of Emmanuel Adebayor up front, the big striker has made such a difference to Spurs' ability to bury the scraps up front. Spurs have great attacking options with the likes of Louis Saha, Jermain Defoe, Rafael van der Vaart and of course Gareth Bale. Spurs are one of the strong favourites to win the FA Cup this summer, and with a solid defence and an explosive attack, they will be expecting to book their place in the FA Cup quarter finals with some comfort on Sunday.

Anything But Ordinary
When the world's biggest online car rental operators relocated they asked us to help them turn their new premises into an exciting working environment.
The challenge
To produce ideas and designs for a new office space that would reflect Rental Cars' mantra: 'anything but ordinary' and help to keep the team energised.
What we did
Our role was to develop spaces, rooms and areas over five floors that featured emotive places, routes and road trips. Other car themes we played with came from movies, like The Italian Job and James Bond. It all added up to an amazing working environment to inspire the Rental Car team.
The results
Our work has been featured in numerous articles throughout national press and has helped the Rental Cars building to become known as one of the coolest office spaces in the UK.
