So here it is, the taboo subject of self-respecting exercisers and gym goers, runners and cyclists (wanting more than toned legs), or simply those wanting to lose some weight. At least in my case, I hope no one ever sees me breaking a sweat in my living room, doing lunges, hops and squats to the rhythms of cheap techno beats. Oh I'm not talking about the wiiiiii and all those new high-tech things, just the old DVD! I mean seriously: the roads, hills, mountains, 100miles bike ride, marathon, ultra, triathlon, you name it, will give you a deserved sweat and amazing feeling of accomplishment (and it's just so Bad Ass), but a DVD? The truth is that yes, it can give you quite a good deal for your time. Oh, and remember that article On Running and Injuries? Well THIS is the perfect prevention/healing plan!
I like to think that I'm in pretty good cardiovascular shape and quite strong.. but these always challenge me:
- Rock Hard Total Body by Marco Reed (ExerciseTv)
It's a 40 min (no stretching included) of full body and cardio blast. And I mean the Cardio blast! The design is 45sec. intense all-out on one move, then 15sec. rest, then onto the next move, etc. So it's always alternating 45 work 15 rest.
My Favorite move:
(as fast as you can with most power in the jump while keeping a good form)
***the stick figures are an original idea of Marie (told you I liked it!)
For this workout all you'll need is a set of dumbbells. I use the 5lbs and my boyfriend uses the 10lbs, and it kills both of us!
Pro: great cardio, and weight workout
Con: could use a bit more abs
- No More Trouble Zones by Jillian Michaels
It's a 40 min. circuit training targeting arms, but, hips, tummy, and all those little imperfections. I don't get much of a cardio workout, but my muscles are certainly working. It's HARD! Use 3lbs-8 lbs (I use 3lbs and 5lbs depending on the move). Overall, that's one of my favorite full-body sculpting DVD.
- Perfect Abs by Bodywisdom Media
It's divided in two categories: Beginner and Advanced. Each have three sections and they are all are very challenging. What I like about it, is that it's STRAIGHT TO THE POINT and it really works you out (the burning feeling in your abs!). The one thing I don't like is her voice, but that's why Mute exists 🙂 (Ok, that wasn't very nice)!
So what's your (honest) opinion on workout DVDs, and which ones are your favorites?

Confession: when we plan a family vacation, one of the first things we take into consideration is where we're going to eat. Sometimes we look for a fine dining experience. Other times, we just look for a taste of the local palate. But we're the type who always have our dining reservations made 180 days in advance, if you get my drift.
So when we decided to take the kids to Mystic, CT, for couple of days over spring break, one stop was immediately clear-cut. We'd have to have a meal at Mystic Pizza.
Of course, my kids – at 14 and 8 – aren't really familiar with the movie "Mystic Pizza," which launched Julia Roberts' career way back in '88. But my husband and I ate there a couple of years ago on a trip to Mystic, and I found it to be a charming little pizza parlor tucked away in a cute downtown shopping area overlooking the Mystic River. Besides, I remembered the pizza was really really good, in a different way I couldn't quite put my finger on. I was looking forward to trying it again.
Our first night in Mystic, we headed to town – and to dinner – around 7. We tried to explain the "Mystic Pizza" concept to the kids as we hiked up the hill to the pizza parlor. Seated immediately, we ordered our own "slices of heaven" – half with bacon – and settled back in the cushy booth to soak in the atmosphere. The walls are adorned with assorted memorabilia of my growing up years, including a heavy sprinkling of framed 8 by 10's of the movie. Our pizza arrived piping hot and delicious. It may be cliche to those who know the film, but there really was something different and very tasty about the sauce.
Don't get me wrong – it's not my favorite pizza (Mack and Manco in Ocean City, NJ, has held that title for years!) but it was definitely worth planning on the next time we're in Mystic. And in fact, we did go back again for lunch the next day after visiting the local record store (the stop my son Max requested – the store was closed the night before). This time, we shared a small pizza, some mozzarella sticks and some potato skins, and left very happy.
This isn't a fine dining destination by any stretch, but for fans of the movie – or fans of yummy pizza – Mystic Pizza is a great choice!

Pueblos en Camino support Idle No More!
As Pueblos En Camino, we urge Prime Minister Harper to meet with Chief Theresa Spence, who is currently on a hunger strike in protest of ongoing poor conditions and to re-establish a meaningful, nation-to-nation relationship between the Federal Government and First Nation people, a relationship that should be the basis of Canadian government and First Nation relations. We also stand alongside the many groups who reject the omnibus legislative changes contained in bill C-45, including the deplorable set backs related to treaty rights for Indigenous people and protection of lake and rivers in the country, among others. We join the growing voices across Canada and the world urging Prime Minister Harper to meet with Chief Spence and work towards a more equitable and respectful relationship with First Nation people.

Sterling Analytics has delivered significant value to clients through a proprietary approach to reducing legal expenses. Although every client's situation is different, our methodology consistently involves an empirical assessment of a client's legal expenses, benchmarking against industry best-practices, and implementation of strategies to enforce cost controls.
The Sterling Solution for reducing legal fees and expenses is detailed below. Visit our Common Objectionable Billing Practices page for additional information about causes of high legal costs.

What specific steps should you take to reduce legal expenses?Continuing Care
How can we help you implement permanent savings?
Legal Bill Auditing
Our team of trained legal professionals has analyzed over $10 Billion of law firm invoices. By integrating professional judgement with technology, we are able to identify many more improper charges than software packages can on their own. Our audit process is fair, independent, cost-effective and maintains attorney-client privilege.
Best Practice Benchmarking
Our proprietary database of legal bills allows us to compare your company's legal fees to industry averages and best practices. This unique data allows you to understand how much you can realistically save on legal expenses.
Create/Overhaul Billing Guidelines
The use of clear and enforceable external counsel Billing Guidelines contractually establishes the "rules of engagement" that govern how law firms work for your company and bill their time.
Enhanced Monitoring Protocols
Rigorous e-Billing systems and line-by-line auditing practices ensure outside firms comply with your company's Billing Guidelines.
Consolidating legal spend among fewer firms can strengthen your relationship with those firms, improve compliance with Billing Guidelines and create an opportunity for volume discounts.
Requiring firms to commit to budgets on retained matters is proven to reduce overall billings, while enhancing the ability of e-Billing systems to monitor compliance.
Alternative Fee Arrangements
Engaging firms under fixed fee, capped fee or contingency arrangements rather than traditional hourly billing can dramatically reduce legal costs.
Continuing Care
Securing Reimbursements
Negotiating with law firms to obtain fee reductions or reimbursements of improper charges. Our impartial bill audit provides specific and credible evidence of infringements, which compels firms to remedy violations.
We teach clients to spot audit bills and test e-Billing systems to ensure improper chargers are caught. Enhanced Billing Guidelines and controls are only effective if properly enforced.
Continuous Oversight
We perform ongoing monitoring and periodic bill audits to ensure clients are not being overcharged. Many companies lack internal resources to perform such activities and rely on our assistance.

Above: The filming of "Mayor Cupcake" at Rehoboth Elementary School yesterday.
I dropped by the set of "Mayor Cupcake" [1] in Rehoboth yesterday — the locally-produced film starring Lea Thompson and Judd Nelson.
Before I share a few more photos, here's a heads up.
A scene for "Cupcake" will be filmed live at the Bottle & Cork Saturday at 5 p.m. during Jam Session.
The set-up is that Thompson's daughter Madeline, who also plays her daughter in the film, will join Burnt Sienna on stage and sing a song with them. Nelson will also be in the scene.
So if you want to be in the film, head on down to the Cork Saturday for what will surely be a unique Jam.
And now for a few more photos…
Thompson talks to co-star Frankie Faison, who starred as Commissioner Burrell on "The Wire."
Nelson, who plays Thompson's husband in the film, sitting with Thomspon's daughters.
Thompson talks to her daughter, Madeline, who will be singing in Dewey Beach Saturday.

These guidelines set out the policy on the sale and purchase of securities in Cellmid Limited ("the Company") by its directors and employees. In addition, this policy applies to advisers, contractors and consultants who may obtain confidential or price sensitive information in relation to the Company.
Directors of the Company and employees are encouraged to be long-term holders of the Company's securities. However, it is important that care is taken in the timing of any purchase or sale of such securities.
The purpose of these guidelines is to assist directors and employees to avoid conduct known as 'insider trading'. In some respects, the Company's policy extends beyond the strict requirements of the Corporations Act.
This policy applies to both the sale and purchase of any securities of the Company and its subsidiaries on issue from time to time.
Insider trading is a criminal offense. It may also result in civil liability. In broad terms, a person will be guilty of insider trading if:
that person possesses information which is not generally available to the market and, if it were generally available to the market, would be likely to have a material effect on the price or value of the Company's securities (ie, information that is 'price sensitive');
and that person:
buys or sells securities in the Company; or
procures someone else to buy or sell securities in the Company; or
passes on that information to a third party where that person knows, or ought reasonably to know, that the third party would be likely to buy or sell the securities or procure someone else to buy or sell the securities of the Company
To illustrate the prohibition described above, the following are possible examples of price sensitive information which, if made available to the market, may be likely to affect materially the price of the Company's securities:
the Company considering a major acquisition or disposal of assets;
the threat of major litigation against the Company;
the Company's sales and profit results materially exceeding (or falling short of) the market's expectations;
a material change in debt, liquidity or cash flow;
a significant new development proposal ie, new product or technology;
the granting (or loss) or a major contract;
management or business restructuring proposal;
a share issue proposal;
an agreement or option to acquire an interest in a mining tenement, or to enter into a joint venture or farm-in or farm-out arrangement in relation to a mining tenement; and
significant discoveries, exploration results, or changes in reserve/resource estimates from mining tenements in which the Company has an interest.
Dealing through third parties
A person does not need to be a director or employee of the Company to be guilty of insider trading in relation to securities in the Company. The prohibition extends to dealings by directors and employees through nominees, agents or other associates, such as family members, family trusts and family companies (referred to as "Associates" in these guidelines).
Information however obtained
It does not matter how or where the person obtains the information – it does not have to be obtained from the Company to constitute inside information.
Employee share schemes
The prohibition does not apply to acquisitions of shares or options by employees made under employee share or option schemes, nor does it apply to the acquisition of shares as a result of the exercise of options under an employee option scheme. However, the prohibition does apply to the sale of shares acquired under an employee share scheme and also to the sale of shares acquired following the exercise of an option granted under an employee option scheme.
General rule
The Company does not have set "closed periods", where directors and employees can not trade in Company securities.
However, if a director or employee of the Company is in possession of price sensitive information which is not generally available to the market, then he or she must not deal in the Company's securities at any time.
If a director or employee is in doubt about whether all sensitive information has been released to the market they should make a request, in writing, to the Chairman or CEO.
General Restrictions on the ability of Directors and Employees to trade in Securities
Notwithstanding any of the other sections in this document:
Directors and employees shall in all circumstances be prohibited from;
No short-term trading in the Company's securities
Directors and employees should never engage in short-term trading of the Company's securities except for the exercise of options where the shares will be sold shortly thereafter.
Securities in other companies
Buying and selling securities of other companies with which the Company may be dealing is prohibited where an individual possesses information which is not generally available to the market and is 'price sensitive'. For example, where an individual is aware that the Company is about to sign a major agreement with another company, they should not buy securities in either the Company or the other company.
Directors and all employees may at any time:
acquire ordinary shares in the Company by conversion of securities giving a right of conversion to ordinary shares;
acquire Company securities under a bonus issue made to all holders of securities of the same class;
acquire Company securities under a dividend reinvestment, or top-up plan that is available to all holders or securities of the same class;
acquire, or agree to acquire or exercise options under a Company Share Option Plan;
withdraw ordinary shares in the Company held on behalf of the employee in an employee share plan where the withdrawal is permitted by the rules of that plan;
acquire ordinary shares in the Company as a result of the exercise of options held under an employee option scheme;
transfer securities of the Company already held into a superannuation fund or other saving scheme in which the restricted person is a beneficiary;
make an investment in, or trade in units of, a fund or other scheme (other than a scheme only investing in the securities of the Company) where the assets of the fund or other scheme are invested at the discretion of a third party;
where a restricted person is a trustee, trade in the securities of the Company by that trust provided the restricted person is not a beneficiary of the trust and any decision to trade during a prohibited period is taken by the other trustees or by the investment managers independently of the restricted person;
undertake to accept, or accept, a takeover offer;
trade under an offer or invitation made to all or most of the security holders, such as, a rights issue, a security purchase plan, a dividend or distribution reinvestment plan and an equal access buy-back, where the plan that determines the timing and structure of the offer has been approved by the board. This includes decisions relating to whether or not to take up the entitlements and the sale of entitlements required to provide for the take up of the balance of entitlements under a renounceable pro rata issue;
dispose of securities of the Company resulting from a secured lender exercising their rights, for example, under a margin lending arrangement;
exercise (but not sell securities following exercise) an option or a right under an employee incentive scheme, or convert a convertible security, where the final date for the exercise of the option or right, or the conversion of the security, falls during a prohibited period and the Company has been in an exceptionally long prohibited period or the Company has had a number of consecutive prohibited periods and the restricted person could not reasonably have been expected to exercise it at a time when free to do so; or
trade under a non-discretionary trading plan for which prior written clearance has been provided in accordance with procedures set out in this Policy.
The Company does have in place an active share or option plan.
Where the exercise price of options is being provided by a margin loan or other form of lending arrangement then there may be a risk that the employee or director may need to sell shares to avoid providing additional capital or security to the lender in the event of a decrease in the value of the shares.
Were this to occur at a time when the person possessed inside information then the sale of Company securities would be a breach of insider trading laws, even though the person's decision to sell was not influenced by the inside information that the person possessed and the person may not have made a profit on the sale. Where Company securities are provided to a lender as security by way of mortgage or charge a sale that occurs under that mortgage or charge as a consequence of default would not breach insider trading laws.
Approval Requirements – Directors
Any Director wishing to buy, sell or exercise rights in relation to the Company's securities should obtain the prior approval of the Chairman or the Board before doing so; or
If the Chairman wishes to buy, sell or exercise rights in relation to the Company's securities the Chairman should obtain the prior approval of the Board before doing so.
Approval Requirements – Key Management Personnel
Any Key Management Personnel wishing to buy, sell or exercise rights in relation to the Company's securities should obtain the prior written approval of the Chief Executive Officer before doing so.
For the purpose of this policy, "Key Management Personnel" are defined as:
any first line reports of the Chief Executive Officer and their direct reports; an
any other person designated by the Chief Executive Officer as key management personnel on the basis that they have authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Company either directly or indirectly.
Any Director or employee who (or through his or her Associates) buys, sells, or exercises rights in relation to Company securities must notify the company Secretary in writing of the details of the transaction within five (5) business days of the transaction occurring. This notification obligation operates at all times but does not apply to acquisitions of shares or options by employees made under employee share or option schemes, nor does it apply to the acquisition of shares as a result of the exercise of options under an employee option scheme.
Approvals to buy or sell securities
All requests to buy or sell securities must include the intended volume of securities to be purchased or sold and an estimated time frame for the sale or purchase.
Copies of written approvals must be forwarded to the Company Secretary prior to the approved purchase or sale transaction.
Director and Key Management Personnel sales of securities
Directors and executives need to be mindful of the market perception associated with any sale of Company securities and possibly the ability of the market to absorb the volume of shares being sold. With this in mind, the management of the sale of any significant volume of Company securities (i.e. a volume that would represent a volume in excess of 10% of the total securities held by the seller prior to the sale, or a volume to be sold that would be in excess of 10% of the average daily traded volume of the shares of the Company on the ASX for the preceding 20 trading days) by a Director, the Chief Executive Officer or other Key Management Personnel needs to be discussed with the board and the Company's legal and financial advisers prior to the execution of any sale. These discussions need to be documented in the form of a file note, to be retained by the Company Secretary
The ASX Listing Rules require the Company to notify the ASX within 5 business days after any dealing in securities of the Company (either personally or through an Associate) which results in a change in the relevant interests of a Director in the securities of the Company. The Company has made arrangements with each Director to ensure that the Director promptly discloses to the Company Secretary all the information required by the ASX.
Compliance with these Guidelines for trading in the Company's securities does not absolve that individual from complying with the law, which must be the overriding consideration when trading in the Company's securities. The responsibility for trading Company's Securities remains with the individual at all times.

The four-phased Atlantic Memorial Park (AMP) project, envisioned by a committed group of volunteers, has amped up its presence and grown from a pleasant daydream into something magical.
On Nov. 16, volunteers supporting AMP met at the Black Spoon in North Sydney and expressed their heartfelt belief in and support for the project.
The actual development of a fitting and beautiful site at the entrance to Sydney Harbour is exciting. AMP has evolved into a viable economic prospect. It has been expanded into a commemorative enterprise with strong local and regional support and a potentially strong national platform.
AMP will provide a long-term response to the development of several acres of land located on some of our prettiest coastal property. This includes both land and sea. The area concerned encompasses Chapel Point, the Battery and the Princess Mine Plateau, Lockman's Beach and Neils' Woods. During Phase One the Chapel Point Battery is expected to be fully restored.
We made a commitment to see this park become a national treasure, respected and supported by all and received by children as a cherished gift.

Is The State Ready To Invest In Education For Foxconn?
By Ed Heinzelman On August 6, 2017 · 6 Comments · In Economics, Infrastructure, Jobs & The Economy, Technology, Wisconsin, Wisconsin Politics
This is a question I've asked several times on social media but apparently not here. But beyond the potential $3 billion in tax credits and the sales tax holiday and the infrastructure build outs…is the state of Wisconsin and Governor Scott Walker prepared to fund the 21st Century educations needed to run with the modern economy? We'll see as the University of Wisconsin says it needs more funds:
The University of Wisconsin System says with more state money, it can boost engineering enrollments and training for other workers needed by a Taiwanese electronics company that has big plans to build a factory in southeastern Wisconsin.
With the state budget still in flux, and the UW System's funding along with it, the clock is ticking for the public university system to detail what it would need to quickly help fill workforce demands for Foxconn's planned investment of $10 billion in a massive display panel plant in Kenosha County or Racine County that could eventually employ 13,000 people.
And here is part of the issue…the state budget is still in 'flux'…rather nice way of saying that it is five weeks late. And that is a big deal for all of the schools and school districts in Wisconsin. They have no idea what kind of funding they will have for the 2017 – 2018 school year.
But back to Foxconn. One of the rumors around the plant is that it will be incredibly automated. That it will require employees with degrees and advanced degrees to run and maintain some of the equipment. Is the state really prepared to fund a 21st Century educational system? If they really want to become Wisconn or Dairyland Valley or whatever, top ranked universities and technical colleges are going to be a necessity. And there really isn't much time to waste…if they want employees ready by the time the plant is ready.
btw: think they'll import Chinese trades people to build the plant? So far I don't think there is anything preventing that. It's the MO of many Chinese companies to do exactly that when building in Asia or Africa.

Gregory says:
From the testimony this past by the UW-System and separate campuses along with tech schools there is every degree of confidence that those trained people required not only for Foxconn but also a host of other jobs of the future to be spun off can be educated in this state. The biggest hurdle, as I see it, is to help people to understand that the last book they read in high school is not the last they need to read. The whole tech issue and the way it relates to the economy is a matter that needs to be spoken more often by candidates for office. The pace of change is fast and most average folks are not prepared for it and will simply be left behind. We need to force the change for the greater good but try also to engage those who feel left out. Not easy.

Well, if baseball required 32 bases to score a run, you'd touch them all to be the mature guy and score a run.
It seems you're kind of condescending to point at those who "understand that the last book they read in high school is not the last they need to read."
I took some time off from college, and became a bona-fide welder, because the business owner then understood that I had the brains to learn a basic job. I learned to weld in the course of a few days, the employer showed me how to do it, and it's no magic lack-of-training situation.
My dad was an agent for the National Federation of Independent Business, and he always told me that employers "just couldn't find the right people," meaning they complained that those bad workers had no desire to work for someone who paid them poverty wages.
Education is fantastic, but has to be truly connected to getting a job worthy of your educational experience.

I am simply pointing out a true statement. Read any Thomas Friedman book or column and the themes I made reference to in my comment are also penned by him. Talk to any person who sits on a tech school board and the same themes will be heard. The Sunday edition of my Wisconsin State Journal wrote of a point you raise. They wrote that at one time a person could get a job where someone taught a skill that can be learned quickly. But those type of jobs are not in the main anymore. In a tech based world–and that is where we are and will be more-so in the years to come–computer skills and a raft of other connecting skills will be required. Talk to those who organize job fairs and the same conversation can be heard. I am not being condescending but rather just honest. Education is a lift-time learning exp. ATT has made continuing education the way they will be keeping employees and getting skilled ones. They pay for classes, employees take the courses on their own time, and as new openings occur the hires will be come from within. There is a checklist of what one needs to know to work at the company and they will assist in gaining those skills. If someone is not interested they can leave the company and work elsewhere. It is that model that is the future.

Never been much of a Thomas Friedman fan (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/david-sirota/billionaire-scion-tom-fri_b_26164.html), and employers–if they really want to hire people (training people instead of using some skills-deficit excuse to not emply them)–pay those "valued" workers a family-supporting, living wage.
Just sayin'

Any Democrat that votes for this Foxxcon Deal in any size shape or form needs to be sent packing in the August Primary so we can send the Republicans that vote for Foxxcon out of office in November.

How to Dazzle the Enemy
Trying to camouflage an aircraft carrier is about as hard as it gets. So do you make an enormous piece of military hardware 'disappear' into its surroundings? How about doing the exact opposite and cover it in an array of wildly contrasting colours and bold patterns, making it completely unmissable?
It's a technique which was used on naval vessels in both World Wars, going by the unlikely name dazzle camouflage.
The characteristic dark and light contrasting stripes, diagonal lines and curves of dazzle camouflage were meant to confuse the enemy by distorting the lines of a ship when viewed through a submarine's periscope and making it harder to aim accurately for artillery attacks.
The idea of using camouflage in combat had some early supporters as World War I broke out, but at first there was limited interest from military and political leaders. However a British naval officer and marine painter called Norman Wilkinson developed dazzle camouflage layouts to paint on warships; painting of the first vessel was completed in 1917. The US and other countries adopted the flamboyant paint schemes for their naval vessels, but any value from dazzle camouflage became marginal by World War II with advances in technology for the accuracy of rangefinders and (in particular) radar.
So did dazzle camouflage really make a warship harder to hit with a submarine torpedo? It seems that no one has a clear answer, in part because the wide variation of colours and patterns used on the naval craft made it difficult to establish which dazzle painting schemes were the most effective.

I found this string of beads inside one of the many boxes.
I just had to do something with it before throwing it out. So, I made this,
It started to get interesting and I tatted a few more,
The above were tatted with shuttle and ball, except for the bottom-most, which was with shuttle only.
Then I continued some more and tried with two shuttles, with the result you can see below,
There is a lot more that can be done with this string of beads.
What? ... The clean-up? ... Did I say I wanted to clean-up the craft area?
Now, when did I say that?
Here is another photo before I close this topic. Tatted a couple of cloverleaves to the sample (with two shuttles).
Here is another photo before I close this topic. Tatted a couple of cloverleaves to the sample (with two shuttles).
There should be enough sample for you to try experimenting on your own.
There were requests for patterns, here and also on my Facebook page. Not sure how to prepare patterns for these because the stitch count will depend on the size of the strung beads. Some of the techniques that I have used for this experiment, besides the double-stitch and regular join, is the crocodile join, roll join and double-stitch on split chains.

What Priests REALLY Think About in Confession
The days approaching the Nativity of our Lord Jesus are almost finished. He will soon, we remember, be born in that small, dark, cold and lonely cave in one of the hills in Bethlehem, where shepherds would gather their sheep for protection at night time. Yet, despite such a humble birth, this child will change … Continue reading

CHENGDU, China — Like an urban drill sergeant, Tang Shenbin paced on a city square, sternly inspecting his nervous charges, issuing sotto voce commands with military authority. He wanted the female members of chengguan — China's burly enforcers of urban order, feared and despised for their capricious crackdowns and penchant for violence — to convey a certain impression to a clutch of onlookers.
"Stand straight! Look sharp!" Show them, he whispered, "what pretty girls are like!"
Four barely-past-teenage girls in white gloves and identical olive jackets and pants snapped to attention. Four pairs of black pumps lined up ruler-straight. Four prim hats perched perfectly atop hair bound in blue and white striped bows.
"Personally, I think they are average-looking," Mr. Tang said, dismissively. "Models are pretty."
More than one government has tried to brush up the image of China's urban inspectors. One city mandated that all new recruits have a college degree. Guangdong Province changed the gray-green uniforms to a supposedly more inviting blue.
Wuhan, in central China, substituted stare-downs for strong-arming: in 2009, one report stated, 50 officers encircled a wayward snack cart, glowering steadily for a half-hour until the peddler packed up and left.Continue reading the main story
Xindu, an urban district of 680,000 in Chengdu, has chosen major image surgery. Since 2003, the district has supplemented its urban street police with 13 women, specifically chosen for their looks, shapeliness and youth. The idea is to give the rough-hewn police a softer, feminine side.
Unfortunately, even Scarlett Johansson might struggle to raise China's subterranean regard for these city squads.
And for good reason, critics would argue. Unlike the police, these officers are authorized only to enforce city ordinances by imposing fines and other administrative penalties. But the Chinese news media routinely portray a different reality.
In January 2008, Hubei Province inspectors beat a bystander to death after he used his cellphone to film them breaking up a protest against a waste dump. Last year, a training manual for Beijing inspectors, pilfered and posted online, described how to effectively thrash offenders without drawing blood.
This year, a Shanghai watermelon peddler was left brain-damaged after a scuffle with five officers. One violence-soaked video game, available for download online, features Chinese-trained inspectors who assault street vendors.
"Chengguan has scarred the government," China Daily, a national publication, lamented last year after yet another controversy over tactics. The paper demanded a "truly thorough cleanup."
Skeptics say the approach here falls far short of that. After the district advertised for eight new female recruits in October, an editorial in The Beijing Evening News questioned whether the women had actual duties or were simply scenic diversions. The answer appears to be a little of both. The district's advertisement called for female applicants 18 to 22 years old, with a good figure and "the five facial features in proper order." They should be above-average height — taller than 1.6 meters or 5 feet 2 ½ inches.
Retirement at age 26 is mandatory. Officials said the job was physically too arduous for women over 25.
"Their image is the important thing," one unnamed district official told Rednet.com, a quasi-governmental Web site. "First, the candidates' external qualities will determine if they make the cut, such as height, weight, facial features, etc." Next comes temperament and "inner qualities."
Female chengguan are like flower vases, he said, adding, "Besides being vases, they will have other responsibilities."
Zheng Lihua, the deputy director of the district's city management bureau, is not eager to endorse that description. But he noted that height requirements were standard in many Chinese job advertisements for both sexes. So is the demand for orderly facial features.
Whether that means good-looking is a matter of debate among Chinese. Certainly, the disabled or disfigured need not apply. "We can't let a lame person or a hunchback come to serve here," Mr. Zheng said. "His image would not be good."
Liu Yi, who patrols the Baoguang Square near a monastery, is 22, apple-cheeked with a finely curved mouth. She does not consider the stress on her appearance to be sexist, she said.
"Do you think I look sexy in this uniform?" she asked with a wry look. Said her dimpled co-worker, 21-year-old Xu Yang, "Our job is to present the city's image."
They do not object to their limited tenure either, they said, because they harbor career ambitions greater than simply shooing vendors into the alleyways where they are supposed to confine their business. Every morning, the squad faces off against a dozen or so peddlers who dart around on foot or bicycle, trying to sell as many buns or bowls of tofu as possible before they are run off.
"Master Wang, you have to leave. We have told you many times!" said Ms. Xu as one vendor fled on foot, temporarily deserting his bicycle-drawn cart of noodle-fixings.
The officers describe their duties as more monotonous than strenuous. "It is pretty much the same every day," said Huang Jing, 20, who studies marketing in her off hours. "Very routine."
One reason is that female officers lack the power of their male counterparts to confiscate vendors' goods. They can only threaten to report violators to their male supervisors. That tends to shield them from the sudden public displays of animosity against officialdom that are common throughout China.
This year hundreds of citizens in Kunming, the Yunnan provincial capital, rioted after false rumors spread that chengguan officers had killed a vendor. More than a dozen police or chengguan officers were injured in the nighttime episode; 14 government vehicles were overturned or set on fire.
Xindu has so far escaped such violence. But calm is hardly guaranteed. Just two blocks from placid Baoguang Square, where the female officers patrolled that morning, more than 50 people gathered on a street corner.
Officers had confiscated a motorcycle that was being repaired on the sidewalk instead of inside a shop, as regulations require. The bike's owner was crying foul. A 15-minute standoff ensued before the officers, grim-faced, elbowed their way to their vehicles and sped off with the motorcycle and its owner.
Li Xuedong, 40, a coordinator attached to the male squad, remained behind, his white badge flipped over to conceal his name. Like the female officers, the coordinators — men age 40 or over — play a purely supportive role.
Unlike them, they are not schooled in maintaining a polished image.
"Sometimes we fight verbally. Sometimes we fight physically," Mr. Li said matter-of-factly. "Most of the time it is the public who starts it."Continue reading the main story

There is so much that goes on in a given 24 hour period, and now that we are dealing with the devastating aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, it only adds to the stress and daily hardships we face. Some of us still do not have power, others have downed trees, damaged property. I am particularly heartsick for my friends who have suffered significant losses, including one dear couple who lost their only home which was at the Jersey Shore. I cannot even wrap my brain around the videos and photographs that have been shown in the media of towns like Seaside Heights and Long Beach Island wiped out.
For those of us who still have power and heat, but are at a loss to even know where to begin to help your friends and neighbors, may I suggest one or more of the following?
1) Pray, Pray, Pray – for them, with them
2) Wrap your arms around them if possible and just hug them, silently. Let them cry and grieve.
3) Offer them your home, your shower, a meal, a ride.
4) If you have a generator, offer it to them, or if you're using it, offer them an extension cord hookup!
5) Help them begin the clean-up process – don't say, "Oh if you need anything just let me know." Be there – show up and say "put me to work."
6) Call and text to let them know you're thinking of them and praying for them.
The main thing is – be there for them consistently through the long haul. They're going to need to more than you or they realize. We're all still in shock and reeling from the storm. Do one simple thing… then another… then another. It is amazing how those seemingly miniscule acts will make such a lifelong impact. Reach out and be the hands, the heart and the loving arms of Jesus.
If you can think of other ways, please share them here in the comments section, or email me at email@example.com. I'd be happy to share your ideas!

Big Unions Sitting On the Political Fence
It is a tough call for the unions, analysts say, because the eight Democrats are all friends of labor.
Unions still are feeling burned after they went out on a limb early in the 2004 contest, only to watch as their anointed candidates crashed and burned.
The 2008 candidates "might like labor to come out and endorse in the primary, but the labor movement is only going to do that if they see some great advantage for them," said Paul F. Clark, head of the department of labor studies and employment relations at Penn State University. "Not all unions think that that is something that will benefit them."
Leading the pack of fence-sitters are politically powerful unions such as the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, which gave Democrats $3.1 million in the 2006 elections, the most of any union.
The Service Employees International Union recently disappointed the leading contenders, who had sought its money and foot soldiers, by declining to make a national endorsement.
The International Brotherhood of Teamsters, one of the largest unions in the world and a powerful player in the Democratic Party, is uncommitted in the race, too.
The AFL-CIO, the nation's largest labor federation, has not found any one candidate to be so much better than the rest that it could justify an endorsement before the first primary.
Instead of trying to be kingmakers, these unions plan to wait for a nominee to emerge before they spend some of their substantial resources in hopes of putting a Democrat back in the White House in January 2009.
"We feel that we want to save our energy for the general election," said Jim Spellane, spokesman for the electrical workers union. Added service employees union spokeswoman Stephanie Mueller: "Once a Democratic nominee is chosen, we will put forward the largest grass-roots program ever for a presidential campaign."
Former Sen. John Edwards of North Carolina, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York, Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois and other candidates have telephoned both national and local union leaders to make the case for why each of them deserves an endorsement.
Clinton has the most national union endorsements so far with six, while Edwards has four. Sen. Christopher Dodd, D-Conn., was endorsed by the International Brotherhood of Firefighters. Obama has an endorsement from a New York City correction officers union.
Edwards, meanwhile, has been endorsed by 11 SEIU state chapters and Obama by two.
Many union plums await picking. For example, the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees plans to endorse within a month.
The National Education Association and the Communications Workers of America will decide in December whether to endorse or to endorse more than one candidate. The United Auto Workers has yet to make its plans known.
Sitting on the sidelines is easier this election because all the Democratic candidates support organized labor. The failed presidential runs of Howard Dean and Dick Gephardt also remain fresh in the minds of union leaders.
Unions were burned during the 2004 Democratic primaries after they supported Dean and Gephardt, only to see their campaigns wither. The nomination went to Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry, who had scant union support in the beginning. He lost to President Bush.
Once bitten, twice shy, says Robert Bruno, a professor at the Institute of Labor and Industrial Relations at the University of Illinois at Chicago.
"Nobody wants to be turning out all of their national resources on behalf of a candidate who may not be the party's ultimate choice," he said.
The leading candidates in 2008 - Clinton, Obama and Edwards - have enthusiastic support inside just about every union. The other candidates also push union issues at every turn, making it hard to back one candidate without causing a rift in the union.
"If you were to endorse one on behalf of the entire union, then those segments of the union who are enthusiastic about another candidate would be put in an awkward position," Clark said.
For the service employees union, the first to go public with its indecision, that reflects "that there are a number of candidates on the Democratic side who will stand up for workers," Mueller said.
The same thing happened at the electrical workers union, Spellane said. "We find that our members are all over the place," he said.
Clark said it will be hard to get undecided unions off the fence before voting begins.
Edwards, for example, has pinned much of his presidential hopes on getting support from organized labor, Clark said. Edwards has spent considerable time the past couple of years walking picket lines, speaking out for workers' rights and seeking labor support.
"If Edwards can show some traction, then he's going to get more attention from the labor movement," Clark said. "The problem is, he may well need the labor movement to generate that traction."

But let us not stop more important things getting in the way of this, the inaugural Weimar Republic Coffee Awards 2013. I have spent the past year conducting a completely unfair, unbalanced and not in any way thorough survey of the coffee available throughout our fine nation. And now the results are in.
To test coffee appropriately, my rules state you should order a flat white and an espresso. This will give you the best picture of both the quality and flavour of the coffee itself, how it works in a more complex (slightly) beverage, with milk, and also the coffee making skills of the establishment in question.
In practice, drinking a flat white and an espresso everywhere you go isn't practicable, particularly if you want to test more than one establishment's coffee in the same day and don't enjoy caffeine hallucinations. But still, I tried my best. Here are my favourites:
Flat White, Berwick Street, Soho, London
Possibly one of the first British cafes to bring the flat white to the UK? And how glad I was of this. When I first left the UK for Australia in 2008, I had never heard of the flat white. I was very much a tea drinker. And then I discovered the joyful flat white. Why couldn't English people make coffee like this? Why did we put up with those milky, bathtub sized travesties, with several inches of flavourless froth sat on top? When I came home, in 2011, I was overjoyed to see flat whites in English coffee shops. So, thank you, Flat White in Soho, and your fine flat whites.
The Bean, Stoney Street, Beeston, Nottinghamshire
My local. And fortunately so. We buy all our own coffee beans here and they grind them for us too! And they do a grand flat white.
Wired, Pelham Street, Nottingham
A new one in Nottingham. Excellent, and good food too.
Hot Numbers, Gwydir Street, Cambridge
Very fine coffee. These people are into coffee so much that I just felt like a person with a hot drink in comparison. I sampled two different espressos and several flat whites (on separate visits I must point out!).
Boston Tea Party, Park Street/Cheltenham Road/Gloucester Road, Bristol
There's a few of these around Bristol and the west, but those 3 are my favourites. Glorious rich, creamy flat whites. This one was made in the newest Gloucester Road branch, which I'm a bit in love with at the moment because it has opened up less than 5 minutes walk from my parents' house. Thanks, Boston Tea!
Well, the above are all fine contenders in the Coffee of the Year stakes. But none of them have won this coveted prize. "Who has won?" I hear you shout. Well let me tell you that the winner is *drumroll*........
..... Society Cafe, Kingsmead Square, Bath
One of the greatest espressos I have tasted, possible ever. And a fine flat white, and a wonderful establishment filled with lovely furniture and books and magazines. I wrote on the chalkboard in their toilets, to thank them. I'll thank them again. Thank you, Society Cafe. And well done!

ANCESTORS w/ NIGHT HORSE Live in MunichPosted by Captain Beyond Zen on Monday, April 19, 2010
The FEIERWERK Sunny Red venue in Munich is one of these small fucked up dumps where the total underground rules - a paradise for students and intellectuals to meet like-minded people in an elitist circle, in other words a place where you can feel safe from and superior towards the ignorant species. That was exactly my experience.
My wife and I were very German-like punctual and already arrived at 8 o'clock. Only four visitors there - including ourselves. The concert was supposed to start at 8:30 PM and we made ourselves comfy on one of those many still empty worn out benches in the backrow, which means five steps away from the stage. I was able to test my camera with difficult lighting conditions already, as the room was lit very sparsely.
Unfortunately the lighting did not get any better during the concert - but it's not like we are not familiar with this particular characteristic of such venues. Slowly but surely more spectators came in in drips and drabs in order to shoot that few piccies for the memorabilia box (Facebook?). The first moment of excitement arose when Justin Maranga suddenly appeared around the corner out of the dark.
The musicians Sam James Velde (vocals), Justin Maranga (guitar), Greg Buensuceso (guitar), Nonstop Nick D'Itri (bass) and Jamie Miller (drums) filled up the stage little by little. After a brisk soundcheck, NIGHT HORSE jammed away like a house on fire and rocked the house. Only barely after a few split seconds the long hair strands was energetically thrown around the room and the crowd turned into a headbanging orgy.
NIGHT HORSE's music has its origin deep in the '70s heavy rock. They "come across as the bastard nephew of Black Sabbath and Mountain on a drinkin' binge with their evil stepchild Kyuss" (Allan Grusie).
Sam James Velde, a former Bluebird member, is a a true rock front man through and through with all the gestures and poses. With twin guitars NIGTH HORSE is an ass-kicking riff machine with a great southern hard rockin' blues component. One of the many hightlights was the song 'Shine On Me'. This is a song you can have a look at below. Great concert, great band!
During the break I paid the merchandizing table a short visit and returned with an ANCESTORS T-shirt. Finally, the members of ANCESTORS, Justin Maranga (guitar, vocals), Nick Long (bass guitar, vocals), Brandon Pierce (drums, gong), Chico Foley (electronics, keys, vocals) and Jason Watkins (organ, piano, vocals) entered the stage without any great introductions and played away.
They hit of with the tunes of the song 'The Trial'. Seventeen minutes of cosmic beauty and dissociation. The next song was not less magical then 'The Ambrose law'. The musicians created a lot of excitement and took the watching crowd into another time and space.
Another hightlight was the song 'Bounty of Age' and need I say more? This band's music speaks for itself. Check out the videos here. Awesome concert. Grab the opportunity to see ANCESTORS live whenever and wherever you can. In missing it, you would be sorry.

The Killer says farewell to London
It's 57 years since his disastrous first UK tour which was cut short when the press learned of his marriage to his 13 year old cousin ('the good old days', he said, tongue in cheek.). Despite that, his career recovered and I remember some amazing shows in the early sixties when he tore concert halls apart. He doesn't climb on his piano any more or create havoc but he is still magnetic. The entire audience stood as he began his set with Drinking Wine Spodie Odie and followed up with Down The Line, but then he slowed things down with She Even Woke Me Up To Say Goodbye. Next came another slowie in the form of Before The Night Is Over. No Jerry Lee show is complete without a complaint about the piano and he claimed it was out of tune, and his curmudgeonly side was further exposed when he complained that his long time guitarist Kenny Lovelace was playing the wrong chord: whether in jest or for real it was hard to tell.
The Killer moved on to Don't Put No Headstone On My Grave - beginning slowly but quickly turning it into a rocker. Rather than a headstone, he would appreciate a 'gold monument', he said. More oldies followed with See See Rider, Sweet Little Sixteen and Why You Been Gone So Long. 'I don't drink no more', he revealed, but 'I don't drink no less either'. Whole Lotta Shakin' followed, with Jerry Lee's voice beginning to go off the note even more, and his version of Over The Rainbow was frankly dire. He recovered with Mexacali Rose before finishing his set with Great Balls Of Fire - an exciting performance which got the audience on to its feet again. As his set ended a huge 80th birthday cake appeared which was presented to him, with Ringo Starr and Robert Plant on stage. This was hardly vintage Jerry Lee, but it was a great show and we can only hope that his farewell tours become regular events. But, as compere Mike Read rightly said, this could be the last great rock and roll show that London will see.
But, good though they were, this was just a warm up for the great man, who, on this occasion didn't disappoint.

Update waiting for review
For most people it shouldn't make a difference and would run the same as before. For those with loading issues it should fix memory problems at loading.
If it still crashes there is an option to optimise the loading even more with a button in the new "Space centre" screen.
Even then, you shouldn't note any difference in the game and the art.
I hope it is reviewed quickly enough and be ready soon.
I would like to apologise to those who got the game and haven't been able to play it yet. I hope this update fixes your problems.

Hi dude, your game is awesome, I have seen lots of videos and I love it but sadly I can't play it cuz of the crash in my iPod. I have a question did you upload the update? because iTunes and the web doesn't have it, both say that the lastest version is 1.0, same version that I have. Please tell me if you have uploaded it and the problem is that I haven't found it yet. I really love your game and I would love it more if I play it. Thanks dude.ReplyDeleteReplies
Hi. Sorry I haven't explained how uploading works.Delete
When you finish an app, you submit (upload)it to Apple. Once Apple has the app, there is a state which is called "Waiting for review". They obviously have a lot of apps to review so there is a waiting list.
Once they review and approve it, the state changes to "Ready for Sale" and that is when it is available for the public.
At the moment it is still waiting for review but as soon as it is reviewed it shouold go to ready in no time at all.
Thanks for your patience :)

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), at the weekend, re-arrested the former Resident Electoral Commissioner for Rivers State, Mrs. Gesila Khan. She will be arraigned tomorrow.
It was gathered that Khan, who hails from Bayelsa State, was picked up in Yenagoa on Saturday afternoon.
Khan, who presided over the 2015 elections in Rivers State, was first arrested on April 15, 2016 following multiple allegations of financial fraud, including partaking in N650.9m and $115m poll bribes.
The EFCC believes that the bribes were to alter the outcome of the 2015 general elections.
Khan, who was redeployed to Cross River State at the time of her initial arrest, was, however, granted an administrative bail on May 3, 2016 after fulfilling some conditions, which included bringing a first class traditional ruler as a surety.
But the team, it was gathered, returned on Saturday, to the residence of Khan in Yenagoa to re-arrest her, but could not find her at home.
The team reportedly went to the palace of the traditional ruler, who took her on bail, and requested him to produce her.
It was gathered that Khan was in her village preparing to attend the burial of the late Gordon Obua, the Chief Security Officer (CSO) to former President Goodluck Jonathan, when the traditional ruler called her on telephone asking her to return to Yenagoa.
A source, who spoke in confidence said: "The EFCC came to look for her but they could not find her. They went to the palace of the traditional ruler who took her on bail.
"Madam travelled to her village. She was preparing to return to Yenagoa to attend the burial of Obuah, Jonathan's former CSO when he received a call from the traditional ruler requesting her to return immediately.
"When she reported at the palace, a team of the EFCC was already waiting for her. She was immediately picked up and taken to Port Harcourt. She could not attend the burial".
The Southsouth Zonal Head of EFCC, Mr. Ishaq Salihu, confirmed the arrest, saying she would be arraigned tomorrow.

I am not a wise man, or a very organised one, neither am I powerful or rich, but isn't there a more sensible way to organise sports competition other than buying into the commercial nonsense that is the Olympics. The Olympics are a business riddled with corruption, and a farce. Lots of people won't like what I say, and even I choke in saying it, but really we do need to be reminded that sport is sport, its fun and games, not nonsense. It's not selling a circus with drugged up lunatics who trash places for fun.
Water from above clean looking a beau, underneath trash!
One of my friends posted a photo of the water around Rio full of plastic. It's not unusual, the sea is full of plastic, and effluent. Maybe we should clean it up. Four years ago there was a London olympics, while we were being sold Austerity, and whatever other bollards the Tory party were serving up. Money perhaps better spent else were, like on the poor, or the sick. Is it really important if some one shaves a few hundreds of a second on an arbitrary picked length of special bouncy rubber between disco moves?
Making sense to you? Is this spread by mosquitos or by insectacides
As a life time sports man, I am humbled and over joyed at the physical capabilities of some people, but I think my own food and water I drink should be higher quality than TV presentation. Do you remember the Beijing 6 circles of nonsense, which was just a Coke a Cola advert? Increasingly it becomes more, and more nonsense. Are we all so dumbed down that we need these advertorial gladiators, or even more dozy sports like synchronised, underwater macramé, to impress us, and get us off our fat arses? No because they don't even do that, do they? We are obese as nations. While Jamaica can get a hundred times more gold medals than America per population, despite being really, really stoned, and so can Wales, and Slovenia, it begs the question, what are the populations of Russia and America doing nowadays? The answer it would seem is, eating nachos, and drinking extra large portions of cola, and becoming diabetic.
Yesterday I went swimming, and did a few routes, I watched thirty boats moored under a cliff dropping rubbish into the sea, the boaters think they are sportsmen, women and children. Underneath the boats you will find beverage cans with contents carefully managed to hide the fact it's Maze, or corn sugar. You will find burger wrappers, wet wipes, cigarette buts, and nappies, aluminium foil, they even have barbecues on the boats or land to make fires, the burger wrappers are carefully worded to hide the fact that chemically the burgers are 65 % fat, and also made out of Maze and corn, because the poor sick cows are fed stuff that kills them. You can't see the damage we do to our world, and indeed people don't want to see it. But hey do something about what you eat because the Olympics do not mirror real life, they are an aberration. Real life is today is just making it up the stairs because you are a hundred pounds overweight, and taking multiple meds for high blood pressure, and other preventable nonsense.
Cheers, and really stuff the 100 meters where the sun don't shine.

Las Vegas
We stayed at the Paris while in Las Vegas. This was the view out of our window across the strip to the Bellagio and a partial view of the fountain shows there. The music the fountains are choreographed to is lost in the traffic noises from this distance
The entrance to Caeser's Palace and the amazing color-changing Christmas tree.
Here we are in front of the Sphinx at the Luxor hotel which is unsurprisingly Egyptian-themed. This is actually a stop on Las Vegas's new mass-transit system which at the time only had three stops on it.
The Mirage features a volcano out front which 'erupts' every few minutes. For the record, actual volcano eruptions are much more impressive (see the Costa Rica pages from 2001).
Flaming water near the volcano. This is actually sort of neat, and on cold nights like this one, it's a good thing to be standing near.
The mini-Eiffel Tower. How many mini-Eiffel Tower's are there in the US alone? We know of 4 (the others being Paramount theme parks) at least. Inside, the Paris hotel is French-themed in the same way French Toast is (i.e. nominally). We're trying not to be biased by the number of mistakes they made during our stay, it's a nice enough hotel but we probably won't be staying there again.
Treasure Island is home to a very crowded and supposedly fantastic pirate/mermaid/ship-sinking extravaganza but it only happens three times a night and we kept missing it.
The Venetian hotel which has a scale model version of every postcard view in Venice crammed into the courtyard in front of the hotel. Inside is quite spacious and features a gondola route with much much cleaner water than the original. In the casino they seem to use a carpet shampoo scented by Chanel guaranteed to give most people (4 out of 4 in our case) a headache within 3 minutes.
Lake Mead, just a few miles south of Las Vegas was formed by the creation of Hoover Dam which backed up the Colorado River so much that it no longer reaches the Gulf of California during much of the year. This is view from Hoover Dam looking upstream towards Lake Mead. The massive drop in water level apparent here is partially seasonal and partially due to the Bellagio's fountain shows. Actually, it's a combination of the mega-casinos and the rapidly growing population of the city.
Here's your dam view. We couldn't fit it all into one picture. Just off the photo to the left is the amazing new parking facility (in 1989 we just parked on the shoulder of the road) which may be the world's most convoluted parking garage. At the visitor center they'll take your picture on a blue screen and super-impose it on the dam and sell it back to you for something like $20. This is without a doubt officially the tackiest thing we've ever seen from the National Park Service.
Lisa and Mike pose on the downstream side of the dam. The left side of the river is Arizona, and the right side is Nevada. The diagonal and horizontal power supports are at least as impressive as the dam itself.
Red Rock Canyon is an area just north of the city of Las Vegas. Much of it is now a national preserve. You can probably figure out the creative naming from this picture or the panorama above. Along with Hoover Dam this is probably the most popular day trip from Las Vegas.
Wild burros are quite common in the red rock canyon area. In fact the visitor center was infested with them when we visited. This is Fred (according to a park ranger). We are told that he has a tendency to bite and kick when people don't feed him. Oddly enough, the signs all tell you not to feed Fred and his cohorts. Most people we saw stopped in their cars and fed them anyway, because the best way to get anyone to do anything at a National Park is to tell them not to.
Red Rock Canyon consists of a driving loop which is scenic at first and then pretty dull after the first mile or two. Hiking trails inside the driving loop appear to be equally dull. The hiking trails that went into the various side canyons were much more interesting. This is a section of low hills on the east side of the canyon that we spent a fair amount of time playing in. There are some trails here but you're welcome to orienteer wherever you like (according to the signs) as long you understand that falling off a cliff could be detrimental to your health.
The rock formations here are rather fascinating and there a little crevices, retaining pools and mini-caves everywhere. Because of all the erosion marks in the rocks, climbing and bouldering here is fairly easy. There are more difficult cliffs in the area, most of which were occupied by one or more climbing teams (with ropes).
Melanie eschews ropes and despite our inappropriate dress for the occasion, she felt it necessary to climb up into this odd-shaped thing.

I still think these nail stickers are the best I've ever tried. They were easy to apply and lasted about a week, before my nails grew out and I started to get some tip wear. When applying them, I followed all of the instructions on the box. I used nail polish remover to clean off my nails, including any excess oils. I applied the strips and filed off the extra sticker. According to the box to remove them you are to "gently peel applique off nail starting from side corner of the cuticle area."
Everything went great with these nail stickers until I had to remove them. I tried not to be overly rough when pulling them off, but the glue was very sticky, and some effort was needed. I was horrified to see that the stickers were pulling my nails off. Layers upon layers of my nails were ripped off, and I was left with rough, jagged, uneven nails.
I am not trying to bash these nail stickers, because I will continue to buy and wear them, I just want to warn you ladies that your nails may suffer. I guess beauty is pain right?
Next time I wear these I think I will try putting on a base coat, or try softening up the glue with nail polish remover or a blow dryer.
Has this ever happened to you when using these nail strips? I would love to hear any f your ideas on how to avoid this problem in the future.

Writing a New Sustainability Story
Posted: 9:41AM February 19th, 2016 | Comments
Let's start with a word association game. What's the first thing you think of when you hear "sustainability?" Ask almost anyone and they'll say "recycling," "trees," or "water conservation" and if you ask a Madisonian, you'll likely hear "lake pollution" or "local food." What you probably won't hear: "collective efficacy," "relational trust," "wealth distribution," "volunteerism," or "economy of care." It's an easy assumption to make: sustainability is about keeping the Earth nice for all future lives, so caring for the natural environment is what matters. I was guilty of this very mindset up until a few months ago when I started working at Sustain Dane. Honestly, I walked into the first day of my internship convinced that the environment was all that mattered when it came to sustainability. But take a walk outside and it's obvious why that's not the case. Look around at the trees, birds, soil, and appreciate the infinite moving parts in the natural world around you. Around you. Now look at yourself, look at the building you just walked out of, the people and businesses around you. Realize that you (representing all of humanity, big job here) are an inextricable component of the environment and to achieve real sustainability, our human economic and social systems must change right along with the environment. A healthy environment goes hand in hand with a just economy and strong community: you need one to have the others. Perhaps we need to redefine "environment" in the context of sustainability so that the economy and community are implied. We can't change the environment without changing ourselves in it. So let's revisit two phrases mentioned above: "all future lives" and "you representing all of humanity." There's an unavoidable duality here: not only does everyone (no matter skin color, income, age, sex, or species) deserve a safe, comfortable life where all their needs are met, but everyone can and needs to play a role in crafting a planet where this is possible. We need to rewrite the sustainability story to one where everyone's choices matter and everyone is choosing to support a sustainable environment (economy, community, and physical world!).
So now you've read why we need a new sustainability story and what it generally needs to be. Stay tuned for a more specific idea of what a sustainable planet should look like and some of the questions that must be asked to get us there.

Antoine Laumet de La Mothe Cadillac, (born March 5, 1658, Les Laumets, Fr.—died Oct. 15, 1730, Castelsarrasin), French soldier, explorer, and administrator in French North America, founder of the city of Detroit (1701), and governor of Louisiana (1710 to 1716 or 1717). Going to Canada in 1683, he fought against the Iroquois Indians, lived for a time in Maine, and first served in present-day Michigan as commandant of the important frontier post of Mackinac (1694–97).
With permission from King Louis XIV, Cadillac established a Great Lakes fur-trading post and founded Fort-Pontchartrain du Détroit, later called Detroit. He governed there until 1710, when his enemies in Quebec and Paris forced his removal to the new French colony of Louisiana. Increasingly unpopular there and himself dissatisfied with his appointment, Cadillac was recalled to France and was briefly confined in the Bastille. He lived the rest of his life in retirement in Languedoc. The city of Cadillac, Mich.; Cadillac Mountain, Maine; and the Cadillac automobile are named for him.

THE LAST WOMAN to be hanged in Britain was innocent of murder and should be given a pardon following new evidence, it has been claimed.
Author Monica Weller says her new findings cast serious doubts over the guilt of Ruth Ellis, who was hanged in July 1955 for the murder of her lover David Blakely.
Mrs Weller, 57, who ghost wrote a book with Ellis' sister in 2005, is now petitioning the prime minister urging him to grant her a pardon.
The new revelations include the account of a policewoman who guarded Ellis after her arrest and documents which overshadow claims she was domestically abused by Blakely - provoking her to murder.
Blakely, a racing driver, lived in Penn and he and Ellis became regulars at the Crown Inn and Red Lion pubs. Ellis was later buried at St Mary's Parish Church, Amersham.
Mrs Weller, of Bookham, Surrey, believes Ellis admitted her crime to cover for her other boyfriend, Desmond Cussen.
She said: "Ruth Ellis lied from beginning to end in her testimony - everything was one big lie."
Mrs Weller believes her investigations have been endorsed by Scotland Yard, who attended her book signing in 2005 at the Magdala pub in Hampstead, north London. Blakely had been shot five times as he emerged from the pub on April 10.
She said representatives told her "Monica you have done the Met a favour - we never believed she did it in the first place".
Since the book, Ruth Ellis, My Sister's Secret Life, was published, Mrs Weller made contact with the policewoman who guarded Ellis in her cell at Hampstead Police Station.
The officer said Ellis' clothes were "spotless" despite the blood spattered at the scene, and her unwashed hands were perfectly clean with no trace of material from the gun. It was alleged that Ellis had delivered the final shot at point blank range.
Mrs Weller said: "She was wearing a light coloured costume which she had apparently been wearing to shoot David Blakely in, and there wasn't one blood spot on her at all."
Mrs Weller said the officer was told that Ellis, 28, couldn't plead not guilty to murder as it wouldn't have made enough of a show'.
Ellis, a nightclub hostess, pleaded not guilty, but at the trial admitted firing the gun.
Medical reports also appear to contradict Ellis' claim that she had a miscarriage after being punched in the stomach by Blakely ten days before the murder. At Holloway prison a day after the shooting, she said she had had an abortion.
Mrs Weller added that authorities knew Ellis had suffered from rheumatic fever as a young girl which affected her left hand - showing she would have had difficulty using the gun. However, the jury was not told this.
In another revelation, she says Cussen visited Ellis in prison every day before the trial despite agreeing to give evidence against her.
Mrs Weller said: "They allowed him to visit her. It is absolutely out of order."
Most of the findings come from newly released documents at the National Archives which were not due to be opened until 2031. This includes a list of Ellis' possessions following her arrest.
Mrs Weller is set to work on a TV docu-mentary regarding the case and says she has acquired the backing of a top solicitor and senior police officer who will support the view that there should be a new investigation.
The solicitor is John Batt, a member of the late Sally Clark's defence team.

Iain, I love the Ken Done coaster, turned into clock, turned into necklace. And yes, I really will wear it at work today!
Here's Anastasia below. She runs a stall at the markets in Newtown opposite the station. WKBD supporter Sally spotted her and asked her if she'd donate her coat to the cause. Bless Anastasia, she agreed! She even let Sally take her own phone and take this photo of her, and then she texted it to Sally. What people will do for *fun* and charity: just ace!! Thanks, Anastasia. xo
Finally, below see Ken Done fleecy fabric, never worn, and turned into a skirt. Thanks birdmonkey for finding the fabric in op-shop haven Penrith!
With only 7 days to go:
Help raise money by visiting the What Ken Be Done charity eBay store (Ken Done items uploaded everyday until we end)...
