Enugu Rangers secured a 2-0 win over visiting Defence Forces of Ethiopia in the first leg of their CAF Confederation Cup Qualifiers game played in Enugu.
The Nigerian Cup champions relied on two penalties to dispatch the visiting Ethiopians who were very resolute in defence although they didn't pose any serious threat in attack.
Godwin Aguda converted both penalties awarded to the Nigerian side who were crowned Champions of the Aiteo Cup in Nigeria after coming from 3-0 down to draw 3-3 before finally winning on penalties 4-2.
The result means the Nigerians will head into next week second leg clash in prime position to progress to the next round of the CAF Confederation Cup, which Nigeria's representative Enyimba FC of Aba played all the way to the semi-finals in the last edition

Show Your Work! : 10 Ways to Share Your Creativity and Get Discovered by Austin Kleon is a gem of a book. I truly didn't know what to expect of it, but I had seen it advertised in Bookpage and decided to give it a try. After all, I have come to the sad realization that I stink at marketing. Anything that can help me is greatly appreciated. But, this book isn't really about marketing - it's about sharing, and I like that. I do that and feel good about it.
I hate self-promotion. Honestly, I wish we could go back in time to when bragging was considered in poor taste. Instead we live in a world where it seems everyone is vying for people to pay attention to them. Trying to take part in that, however necessary it might be as a writer, causes me pain. Kleon wrote this book for people like me. He writes, "I'm going to try to teach you how to think about your work as a never-ending process, how to share your process in a way that attracts people who might be interested in what you do, and how to deal with the ups and downs of putting yourself and your work out in the world."
Kleon works on the basis that we all have something to share, that we each have something to bring to this conversation that is the world's ongoing culture development. Someone else's idea might spark our own creative vision, which in turn might inspire someone else. So, share! Don't keep your creative process locked in a drawer. Share your process. Share what you are working on. Offer commentary. Point out something wonderful someone else is doing. Just keep being part of the conversation.
He also offers advice on what to do when the inevitable rejection comes and how to keep going when all seems lost.
"Show Your Work" is an easy read with a lot of wisdom in its pages. The design and illustration of the book add to the overall positive impression as well. It should be read by anyone who works in a creative field.

Zane Grey (1872-1939). Known as the father of the Western novel, his prolific career included 64 books and several magazine articles. 130 films are credited from his books.
Check out the Zane Grey's West Society for fascinating articles and facts about him. In his stories, Grey described the grandeur of the South West that evoked a desire to visit and a need to protect the vanishing frontier. His heroes were flawed and troubled. He honored the Native American instead of portraying him as a savage. His women were virtuous, strong, and spellbinding. The violence and action of the gun fight were secondary to the enchanted topography Grey conveyed with love. His popular novels contributed to the collective consciousness of the myth of the West well into the 20th century. Silent films capitalized on Grey's novels. Of the 130 films adapted from Grey's books; a third of the filming locations occurred in Arizona.
The Western genre in film originates with Zane Grey. His influence spilled into radio shows and television. His film adaptations provided the impetus for many careers including: Shirley Temple, John Wayne, Tom Mix, Randolph Scott, and Alan Ladd. Probably the most famous novel by Zane Grey is Riders of the Purple Sage. Do you have a favorite?
I have been scanning silent films trying to find the perfect late 1920s film to thread the theme of the cinema in "Inside the Gold-Plated Pistol". I've decided on the 1925 William K. Howard lost film, The Thundering Herd.
Besides Jack Holt, Lois Wilson, Noah Beery, Sr., and Raymond Hatton, it's Gary Cooper's first appearance in film. The Thundering Herd is about a trader who uncovers a scheme to blame the Indians for a Buffalo massacre. Director William Howard remakes the film again in 1933 and stars Randolph Scott.
Zane Grey's influence abounds in far-reaching ways. While synonymous with the arid, desert landscape, his passion is for deep-sea fishing. He owned patents on fishing lures and held eleven world records in deep-sea fishing. His letters to friend Ernest Hemingway links Grey's attempts to conquer the Marlin to Hemingway's inspiration for The Old Man and the Sea. Zane Grey is alive today when citizens attend schools, subdivisions, and roads named after him.
I watched an old episode of M*A*S*H the other afternoon and Colonel Potter was eagerly trying to finish his latest Zane Grey novel about a noble cowboy and his relationships with nature, Indians, and a saucy female protagonist. Zane Grey loved the Mogollon Rim by Payson, Arizona. I've camped there and I understand its appeal. I'm looking forward to a weekend getaway to the Eastern section of the Rim in a couple weeks. I can't think of a better site to work on the novel.

Zane's works fueled Western film for decades. Now the great Western writers and authors seemed to have fallen into the background. Re-awaiting discovery. There are occasional attempts by Western buffs to make a Western, but despite high intentions most fall in production qualities, casting … It's not easy to make a good movie. Of any kind. This is what puzzles me about many recent Western films (Revenant not included). There is still a treasure trove of Western literature that has never been put to film, yet we still see uninspired and cliche ridden retreads (Magnificent 7 not included). I guess – since the Studio era seems gone – it now falls to individual directors and film makers to do anything. ?? I'm not calling the current day "The Golden Age of Film" – though there's always been plenty of pulp even when Westerns were high on the menu. There is one last Saving Grace as far as Westerns are concerned: most every damn actor and Director wants to be in – or make – a Western at some point. Hopefully a good one.
My mother LOVED Zane! I've avoided reading him–not sure why. I think it's a shame that all westerns get lumped together as a cheesy genre when there are great and good stories out there. I may be biased since part of my novel takes place in the 1870's West, but I'm thinking of Wallace Stegner's books–especially Angle of Repose–one of the best books about marriage EVER. This is the one of the two books I'm glad I never read before writing my book because I never would have written at all. The other is Middlemarch.
I loved the new True Grit, too–like watching Anne of Green Gables goes west!. I may have to watch Gary Cooper–just because.
Hi Adrienne. I have little exposure with Zane Grey novels, and I have no reason why that's so. He's a new discovery for me. I read a Master's thesis about him from a student in Canada and never realized what an important 19th/20th century American writer he is. I was too busy reading Dreiser, London, and Crane. BTW, I love Middlemarch and very much enjoyed the Coen Brothers' True Grit.
Again, beautiful pictures, Cindy. I'd like to see that 'lost' silent, THE THUNDERING HERD. What a cast!
Zane Grey! My Dad's favorite. I developed my passion for reading on his collection. I think I have almost all Grey's books in my Nook. NEVADA might be my favorite because it was my first read. RIDERS OF THE PURPLE SAGE is more complex than an ordinary western story, and the sequel, THE RAINBOW TRAIL should be read right after the finish of RIDERS. In a similar vein, the first Sherlock Holmes novel, A STUDY IN SCARLET, published about 30 years earlier, also explores early Mormonism and the Danites.
While technically not a Western, Grey's Frontier Trilogy is a good read. The three novels are based on Zane Grey's ancestors, the Zanes, among the first settlers on the Ohio River. Betty Zane is a bona fide heroine of the American frontier.
Thanks, Don. I appreciate your memories and response. I've been reading a biography regarding him–his family (Betty) were quite the troopers. Zane's love for women was paramount to his writing. He had an entourage of secretaries following him about on his adventures. After I finish the bio I'm going to try a novel. Nevada would be good; I wouldn't mind following the book up with the film starring Robert Mitchum.
Now that's a blast from the past. I can remember reading some of his paperbacks as a boy. Can't remember the plots but all with a western flavour at the turn of the century as I recall. Watched many Westerns as a boy but probably didn't realize his books would be the inspiration behind some of them. They are fading memories now. lol
I hear you, who will be this generation's J.K. Rowling. When I was at uni there was a guy named Matthew Reilly who served a similar purpose. His books weren't taxing on the brain and were action packed. To be fair though Rowling was fantastic at world building, something that made her books special.
Well Emma Watson was fantastic in this beautiful movie I saw a few years back, The Perks of Being a Wallflower. She's done other stuff, she'll be fine. Grint I'm worried about getting more high profile work and Radcliffe despite being a fantastic actor and good looking young man has lately been in these weird indie flicks that have failed to make an impact. Now Watson is taking a year off from showbiz. Nice work if you can get it eh? 🙂
He's got some beef but I take your point. 😉
Zane Grey has become a representative symbol of all the dozens of prolific writers whose stories fueled the western film genre. But just as film noir came from the writings of many pulp writers,so was the western much more than the vision of one man. Some of those I found of equal or greater significance were Owen Wister The Virginian), Will c. Brown (Man of the West), Howard Rigsby (The Last Sunset), Jonas Ward (Buchanan Rides Alone) and of course Max Brand (Destry Rides Again, the Gunfighter, The Untamed) AB Guthrie Jr (the Big Sky, Shane, the Kentuckian) and Louis l'Amour (Hondo, Guns of the Timberlands, Apache Territory). then there are the legions of television writers and original screenplay writers who added so much to the genre.
mye grey, they are actually talking about t zan point is that when some people talk about max brand or louis l'amour…they same way they talk bout philip marloe when they mean sam spade. . furthermore, of his 115 writing credits, i doubt whether many living persons has seen half a dozen of his features. his first 50 films were silent. the next 43 were made during the 1930's, a decade that ptoduced over 200 western films. that leaves about 15 movies since 1940. many of them remakes.,,as well as many television dramas based on his stories, which are the tales most of us under 70 yars old remember. from his pen.
Do what you feel in your heart to be right- for you'll be criticized anyway. You'll be damned if you do, and damned if you don't. –Eleanor Roosevelt

Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant. — Robert Louis Stevenson
"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." –Teddy Roosevelt

Jackson via Shutterstock.com Careers Leadership Public Sector In Scotland, tech industry ponders independence referendum Howard Solomon @HowardITWC Published: September 17th, 2014Thursday's referendum in Scotland on independence is being watched by a number of industries there, including its small tech sector.According to Computerworld U.S. an estimated 79,000 people work in IT out of a workforce of 2.5 million. But because tech is an international business, with software and services sold around the world and consultants moving across borders, people in the industry are worried about the implications of a Yes vote.As a member of the United Kingdom, residents of Scotland can leverage the advantages of being part of a larger nation. As part of the European Union, Scots can take advantage of a large market. Related Articles NHS Scotland overhauls security with new sign-on system Royal Bank of Scotland launches mobile banking service If Scots vote to secede, questions of currency and foreign investment, EU market access and international trade will have to be settled.Small wonder the piece quotes Euan Mackenzie, the head of an Edinburgh software development for entrepreneurs as saying, "I've never been so scared in my life."He worries that independence will make funding harder for startups, there will be a loss of research funding to Scottish universities and even that transportation links to London and Europe will be impacted.Those on the Yes side argue that Scotland could have its own currency, with the advantages that comes with it — being able to set its own rates to attract investment, for example — as well as policies to foster innovation.On the other hand, as one expert who conducted a study pointed out, no one knows if devaluing a currency and lower corporate taxes will attract the kind of investment Scotland wants.

Reserve Bank of Australia has once again left the cash rate at 1.75%
Paul Robson
| Jul 5, 2016 |
It's been a momentous couple of weeks both politically and economically with 'Brexit' announcement uncertainty around the result of Saturday's federal election. Adding to action, the Reserve Bank of Australia has just announced the outcome of its board meeting. The Reserve Bank of Australia has decided to leave the official cash rate at 1.75%. In making this decision the RBA resisted the temptation to lower rates further despite concerns around the financial market shockwaves caused by 'Brexit' and the destabilizing effect of an uncertain political landscape here in Australia. Instead it appears the RBA has decided to wait until its August meeting to reassess the impact of these factors as well at the next quarterly inflation reading due at the end of this month. Even though the cash rate has remained unchanged, it's still wise for us to talk, if we haven't in some time, to ensure you are aware… Source: New...

5 Things Chris Brown's Rainbow Hair Looks Like
Another day, another crazy celebrity hair transformation. This time, Chris brown debuted rainbow-colored hair, officially earning him the title of weirdest and wackiest hair makeover thus far. It's becoming increasingly more difficult to keep up with all of the constant hair color changes from celebs — just this week we have seen Julianne Hough, Amber Rose, and Amy Poehler ditch their signature hues. But Chris Brown is a specifically unique case. His hair has been so many different colors, it's likely going to fall out soon (let's hope not). But rainbow? That's definitely a new one.
C. Breezy is clearly no wild hair dye rookie. Over the years we have seen him rock purple, platinum, green, blue, and red hair. It's like he is trying to be Dennis Rodman, or maybe Sisqo (of "Thong Song" fame). His fickle nature when it comes to hair grooming makes him especially difficult to keep up with. Seriously didn't he just have purple hair at IHeartRadio Music Awards? Nevertheless, this particular color mixture is unlike anything we have seen from him before. As for what brought on the drastic dye job, it's anyone's guess. Perhaps he was just feeling artsy?
Check out the new 'do. The pictures are pretty shocking.
See the resemblance here?
Aside from being identical to this former Bulls player, here are 5 other random things that look exactly like Chris Brown's new hair.
1. Rainbow
This one is self explanatory.
2. Snow Cone
It looks like he drew inspiration from the colorful frozen treat, because this couldn't be more SPOT ON.
3. Rainbow Cookies
I know! In celebration of Passover, Chris is keeping it Kosher with rainbow-cookie hair.
4. Spiral Lollipop
You think he brought one of these to his stylist and said "make me look like this"?
5. Fruit Loops
It's totally in style to match your hair to your favorite cereal, haven't you heard?
Here's to hoping he'll keep this look around for a while, because I can't handle another transformation.

Pakistan's army says it backs U.S. peace talks with Afghan Taliban
ISLAMABAD - Pakistan's army οn Thursday threw its suppοrt behind the latest U.S. effοrts fοr a pοlitical settlement with the Afghan Taliban to end a 17-year-old war, urging Washingtοn to leave Kabul as a friend of the regiοn rather than a "failure".
The cοmments by Pakistan's army spοkesman, Majοr-General Asif Ghafοοr, came just after the U.S. special representative fοr Afghanistan, Zalmay Khalilzad, cοncluded a visit to the Pakistani capital of Islamabad.
"As much as we can, we will facilitate," Ghafοοr told a news cοnference in the garrisοn city of Rawalpindi, replying to a query abοut what Pakistan cοuld do to help the United States negοtiate a pοlitical settlement with the Taliban.
"What the U.S. is expecting frοm us, and the fοreign office is cοoperating with, is that somehow they cοuld have these negοtiatiοns with them ."
Ghafοοr added, "We wish that U.S. leaves Afghanistan as friend of the regiοn, nοt as a failure." He did nοt elabοrate.
Khalilzad, an Afghan-bοrn veteran U.S. diplomat who served as Geοrge W. Bush's ambassadοr to Afghanistan, Iraq and the United Natiοns, was named by the Trump administratiοn three mοnths agο as a special envoy to negοtiate peace.
His visit to Pakistan fοllowed a request frοm U.S. President Dοnald Trump to Prime Minister Imran Khan seeking assistance in mοving fοrward peace talks. The overture to Khan came after an exchange of barbed tweets between the leaders last mοnth.
Washingtοn has lοng been pushing Islamabad to lean οn Taliban leaders, who it says are based in Pakistan, to bring them to the negοtiating table.
It often accuses the south Asian natiοn of cοvertly sheltering Taliban leaders, an accusatiοn Islamabad vehemently denies.
Khan, who enjoys the suppοrt of Pakistan's pοwerful army, which dominates fοreign pοlicy, met Khalilzad earlier in the week and also pledged to suppοrt a peace prοcess with the Taliban.
The United States, which had mοre than 100,000 trοops in Afghanistan at its peak during the first term of fοrmer President Barack Obama, withdrew mοst of them in 2014 but still keeps arοund 14,000 there.

text: Religion is a common aspect of life across Iosterra, and, after a fashion, all peoples worship the same deities and beings, albeit differently and through their lenses of understanding the divine. There are three dominant religions on Iosterra which, together, comprise over 89% of religious activity on the planet. These are the Followers of the Elemental Court, the Cult of the Four Dragons, and the strange new Way of the Numena. The remainder is made up of various philosophies, demon cults, and the like. The Followers of the Elemental Court are the most diverse and idiosyncratic collection of peoples on the planet. They worship the aspects of the members of the Elemental Court, and those aspects are not universal. Lumin is the Elemental Lord of Light, and Sios, their aspect in the Northern Continent is seen as a kind and benevolent being who aids all; whereas in the rocky deserts of Lost Saqah, Ashil is recognized as their aspect, and is regarded as cruel and uncaring of those beneath her gaze. Most people on Iosterra are Followers of the Elemental Court, but few agree about the nature of their worship. This has spawned religious conflicts in the past, and is likely to do so again in the future. Interestingly, aspects can subsume one another if sufficient numbers of followers can be converted from the other's worshipers. Most are okay with this, although their worshipers often are not. The Cult of the Four Dragons finds its roots among the Itlan peoples of the Eastern Continent. Unlike the patchwork of faiths and ideologies of the Followers of the Elemental Court, the Cult of the Four Dragons is organized and has strong orthodoxy. It spread across the world during the Magister War, and survived the Lost Era even as other faiths were erased from the world's memory. The Four Dragons are powerful beings, and take an active interest in maintaining their faith. Roughly analogous to the cardinal directions, they have slowly and surely continued to spread their faith. As they have done so without violence or forced conversion (they manifested and slew the last hierophant who attempted this), their followers are generally accpeted where they are found. The Way of the Numena is a post-Lost Era development, and no one seems to know where it developed or why. A collection of philosophies of life and being, its followers see themselves as being on a path to personal enlightenment and attempt to reach it various ways. Those who succeed and ascend become semi-divine beings, and are known as Saints. Thier paths to this state generally gain rapid traction among the adherents of this faith, and several monastaries, schools, and retreats have sprung up across the world to try to spread the word of The Way. Reactions from others range from skepticism to curiosity to hostility, depending on the peoples involved. Demons and worse continually gnaw upon the reality of Iosterra, and often gain footholds by presenting themselves as "Lost Gods" (although Lost Gods are a thing as well) before corrupting their followers. This is a serious problem, and once ensconced in a culture or settlement, can result in a blight event. The peoples of Iosterra are, as a result, constantly vigilant for the signs of demonic activity.

Cache is a place to store something temporarily in the computing environment.
To enable caching in WordPress, you can use WordPress caching plugins. Caching plugins will cache your posts and pages as static HTML files which are served to the users. This reduces page loading time drastically and helps to optimize overall site performance. Additionally, enhanced site-speed will profoundly impact your site SEO.

Images are the great assets for your post/ page which easily grab the users' attention. Uploading images helps you deliver the message many times better that simply the texts can. They make your page look attractive, catchy and engaging.

Yes, you can compress and optimize the images without reducing the quality of the images using WP Smush plugin. It optimizes all of your image files in JPEG, GIF and PNG formats using advanced compression techniques and saves lots of storage space. It auto-smushes all your attachments on upload while you can also smush your attachments manually in the media library.
In addition, the plugin lets you smush bulk data (up to 50 attachments) at a time. The plugin is very useful as it helps your post/page look attractive while being fast.
8. WP-Optimize (FREE)
WP-Optimize is a great tool for cleaning up WordPress database and optimizing WordPress. It automatically removes the unnecessary data from the WordPress without manual queries. The plugin always keeps your database optimized for the best performance.

9. BJ Lazy Load (FREE)
If you have a lot of images used in your site, it may take hours to load. That is annoying to users which often results in higher bounce rates. However, there is a solution to every problem and mostly in WordPress. Lazy loading is the mantra to make your site load faster with lots of images in the page.
To add lazy loading functionality in WordPress site, you can use a plugin like BJ Lazy Load. The plugin replaces all your post images, post thumbnails, gravatar images and content iframes with a placeholder and loads the content as it gets close to entering the browser screen.

In addition, it works with text widgets, embedded videos from YouTube, Vimeo etc. It is a great plugin for website performance optimization and SEO.
10. Wordfence Security (Freemium)

But I Wear Glasses!
There are some terriffic tutorials online for makeup that's really striking and bold, quite often involving false lashes as well.
But I wear glasses, so a lot of these looks are lost behind the frames. Also, in a lot of cases, false lashes are far too long to wear behind specs. So what do you do?
Well, a bit will have to do with what type of frames you have. Rimless glasses will give you the most makeup freedom, where heavier frames will restrict you a little more.
I tend to steer away from the brightly coloured contrast looks, as awesome as they look, they just don't work with glasses. My specs are pretty stylised, being a modern version of a catseye. So I tend to stick with a winged eyeliner, black lashes and either a contour or smokey eye. I don't find this restricting at all, as there is lots of fun to be had with these types of looks, and it certainly doesn't mean that you can't have fun with colour.
My basic look is a soft contour shade and the winged liner. Colours will vary pending what I'm wearing. But I've found a great 'neutrals' palette that works for me. I can't wear brown eyeshadows (they turn orange on me), so I had to hunt for something in either greys or purples. I think greys/blacks are far more dressy than to be used for 'every day', so the purples were the winner! The Covergirl Berries & Cream palette I got back in February has been fantastic. They're a soft colour, and while some people like really pigmented shadows, there are times when I prefer something that's just way more subtle. As long as I have primed properly, I get a good days wear out of the Covergirl.
I've seen a lot of tutorials on how to do a winged eyeliner on YouTube, and they're all great, and all a little bit different. It is a practice thing, of course, so the more you do it, the quicker you'll get at it. My biggest tip is to find type of liquid/gel/cake liner that you're comfortable with. I have a cake liner from BeneFit Cosmetics, "Babe Cake", that I've had for a while, and I've gotten used to it. I can throw on a pair of basic wings in about 2 minutes. I've also used pigments with water, which opens up a huge range of colours. You can also try a good eyeshadow mixed with some water (I've had various rates of success with this). I'd like to try gel liner, though. The finish on it looks really good. As for brushes…. well, you can pay well over $30 for an eyeliner brush and in all honesty, I've not found a "makeup brush" one that I'm happy with. The best brush I've had so far is a $3 craft brush. It's super fine, slightly longer bristles and doesn't get all frayed after a few uses.
Left is the 'day' and right is the 'night'. The only difference between the two is the use of the deepest purple on the outside and a slightly longer wing on the eyeliner. The day makeup is what I'm wearing in the top photo.
I'm just starting to get into false lashes, because I have found it fiddly and tricky and have not been able to 'get' it. Also, wearing glasses means that it's harder to find ones that give you the look without them brushing up against the lens every time you blink. I am finding, however, that demi lashes tend to be most appropriate, or the 'natural look' false lashes, that are more about a gentle look than the full on glam ones. Do I wear them every day? Heck no! I rely mostly on a good mascara. There are a lot of new ones out at the moment, boasting fuller, longer lashes (as they always have), but I'm yet to find one that I'm 100% happy with. So the search continues!
So wearing glasses doesn't meant that you can't have a good time with makeup. It just means that you need to find what works for you and your spec frames.

Following up on this mornings Morning Shift, Motor1 is reporting that GM dumped $175 million into the Lansing Grand River plant for retooling for the 2 new models. The plant currently makes the CTS, ATS and Camaro. Originally I thought that the CT5 was going to be a consolidated model replacing both the CTS and ATS. But that isn't the case. Apparently the CT5 is just replacing the CTS and CT4 is replacing the ATS. Because replacing 2 slow selling models with 2 new models works (eyeroll). They are also reporting that after the CT4 debut, there are going to be a new model every 6 months till 21' including a coming smaller XT4, an even smaller XT3, bigger XT6 and apparently an Escalade Range, whatever that means. Also by 2020, all models will come with Super Cruise, with it trickling down to other GM models as well.
Will it pay off? Who knows. None of this makes sense to me and I have so many questions as to how many of these vehicles will fit into the lineup:
- Why are 2 new models replacing 2 models that notoriously dont sell?
- What is this Escalade Range?
- How does the XT6 fit in with an XT5 and Escalade?
- How much smaller than the XT5 will the XT4 and XT3 be?
- What are you guys really doing?
Seriously. What do you guys think about all of this?

Our eleventh month of house building with a video update of our dream home that is almost finished.
Wait, did you read that tagline up above & get confused?
Isn't that what I said last month?
That our home is almost finished.
If you are confused, don't worry, I am too!
Our nine-month house build timeline went out the door months ago.
We were well warned by our family that our house would take 12 months (April officially brought us to 12 months of house building), but we kept being told that it would take 9 months.
But when the rain hit last summer right when it came time to frame we knew it would take longer by at least a month since that is how long the rain lasted.
Even still, we didn't imagine it would take this long.
Honestly, it's a little confusing, so you should probably just watch this video of our eleventh month of house building.
I actually had between 30-45 minutes of film that I cut down to 25 minutes for YouTube.
And then I discovered that you have to have a verified account to upload anything longer than 15 minutes.
So I majorly cut it down so that it is right under 15 minutes long.
And if you don't feel like watching all 15 minutes I'll just go ahead & spoil the ending for you (although I kind of already did that above)…
We are not in the house yet.
Not only that, but we don't have a move in date yet.
I'm told we will definitely be in the house in April, but that's what we thought about March.
So I've started telling myself that we won't be living in the house until May, just so that I won't be disappointed again.
And we ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO be in the house in May because our temporary house building loan ends in early May.
So there is some good news! I think…
Here is a list of everything that happened in March:
- The metal roofing on our front porch was almost completed, they worked on it some more and there is just a little flashing left.
- Roger built us stairs for the front porch & carport & then I painted them.
- The front & back porch beams were installed & painted.
- Gutters were finished.
- Most lighting fixtures were installed. (Speakers still need to be installed.)
- Kitchen cabinets were (almost) finished being installed. We are stilling missing a drawer under the microwave & there are some doors with dents in them that need to be addressed.
- Kitchen appliances were installed.
- The propane tank was filled & our tankless water heater & fireplaces work.
- Plumbing was finished. We had to have a pump installed as the water pressure was not high enough. Also, we have a toilet that is having some issues so we may need the plumber to come back again.
- Roger & I installed the laundry room cabinets, trim, & counters.
- Roger & I bought the mirrors & hung them.
- The kitchen backsplash was installed along with both of the tile work around 2 of our fireplaces.
- Cleaning/window crew worked on cleaning up our house. They didn't quite finish since the house wasn't complete. I'm not sure if they are coming back, but I sure hope they are because we paid a lot.
- The second floor was buffed to the point that it looked sanded in many areas.
- The flooring crew decided the second floor needs to be completely sanded down, restained/polyed. They were still trying to decide how to move forward with finishing the first floor.
- Paint crew did some touch-ups, more to be done in April.
I think that about covers it!

Edy Ferguson: America

Edy Ferguson: America
AboutFaggionato Fine Arts is delighted to announce the first UK show of the American artist Edy Ferguson. The exhibition, America, combines video and film installations, drawings, paintings and photographs.
Ferguson?s works are vibrant and confrontational comments upon American popular culture. This is demonstrated in 2 video works, and particularly a film installation, simply titled America (1996). Two films are projected onto a purpose-built derelict wall in the corner of the main gallery. One is a film clip from the 1941 Captain Marvel series, ?Curse of the Scorpion? the other a film of a caged bear pacing back and forth. The crumbling wall recalls the US housing crisis, symbolising the ever present American anxiety over the safety of ?home?, represented by the bear, while the fantasy of Captain Marvel thinly veils the pathos underlying the All- American ?hero? myths so obsessively illustrated by Hollywood, with budgets big and small. Integral to the video installation is a child?s plastic toy of an American Indian sitting atop a miner?s tower while a discarded newspaper headlines a failed gold rush. Each element adds to the charged atmosphere of decay and bravura that Ferguson loves to excavate concerning the state of affairs in the USA. In Baby Baby (2007), the iconic Supremes sing the title song, while a video of Muhammad Ali in the boxing ring intersects these scenes. Blending the violent sport with the cheerful melody of the Motown hit evokes a surreal experience of how the most talented African Americans were first presented into mainstream white culture and questions why certain cultural figures become idolised by some, yet vilified by others.
The exhibition recognises Ferguson?s preoccupation with the plasticity of various media. This is reflected in the large wall showcasing over thirty images, comprised of painting, photography and drawing. Each media refers, reflects and speaks to the other, regardless of material, to build a tense threshold of a singular vision that transcends materiality, while playing with wit and dark humour. The entire wall is a total artwork, or Gesamtkunstwerk, offering many interpretations and angles, a Kaleidoscope of views and perspectives, on America?s problems, as well as its delights.
Born in Chicago, Ferguson lives and works between London, New York and Athens. In 1988 she received a BFA from Washington University in St. Louis, even though her professors had stopped speaking to her, being the first student there to ever show video installation. In 1996 she received her Master?s in Painting and Combined Media from Hunter College, New York, being the first student there to show music installation, 5 in the same space, creating quite a cacophony. She has exhibited internationally in France, Switzerland, Austria, Venezuela, Greece and across the USA. Solo exhibitions in 2012 include a retrospective at the Centre d?Arte Contemporain in Geneva and the Benaki Museum in Athens. Her work was also included in the 2nd Biennale of Mardin, Turkey, the Weiner Art Foundation and the Onassis Cultural Center, Athens.

Time to escape from social media for a while, we are all so connected all the time now that we never have a moment to ourselves. Regain yourself, that inner person who needs tending to, find a little time in your day and treat yourself. Winter is fast approaching and there's nothing nicer than to curl up with a book and your favourite drink and get lost in a story that will take you to places your smart phone never can. Into your imagination.
Try these for a start.

4 Ways to Get the Most Out of Your Marketing Agency
Photo Credit: Datify
In this article, I am going to show you how you can get the best out of your marketing agency.
Business owners and startups are consistently advised to try and remove emotion out of the running of their business; I can imagine there are times where this seems like an impossible, probably ridiculous task. Having never owned my own business, I can't empathise 100%, but I can imagine it's very much like the time someone ripped my writing apart.
Not only was it a piece of work that I was incredibly proud of, they ended the conversation with the cliché, "it's not personal" when they noticed that I was understandably peeved. (Peeved is an extremely polite way of conveying the emotions that I was experiencing at the time).
NEWS FLASH – when you pour your metaphorical heart and soul into anything, whether it's a singular piece of work, or a business; for it to be (unconstructively) criticised, it becomes deeply personal. And you should expect a fractured relationship with that individual to immediately commence. Just be cool yeah?
I'm digressing here, but the point I'm trying to make is that business is personal and of course your emotions are going to become intrinsically involved. It seems to be that acknowledging our emotions and instincts has a distinctively negative connotation, but I would argue that from emotion comes passion and if you aren't passionate about the journey your business is taking then…what's the point?
We aren't robots. For instance, did you know that your heart contains 40,000 neurons that all fire to the brain, influencing our conscious and subconscious mind – and when we feel an emotion our body reacts in ways that we find difficult to control?
Hopefully, you have found an agency that is just as passionate and fired up about your business as you are. If you have engaged both your head and your heart and found a good fit, I'm sure by now that you have discussed goals and objectives, working arrangements and agreeing on how the results will be measured.
For a little extra guidance, I have put together some of the ways you can make sure that your relationship is one that is harmonious and yields impressive results. I've also included some great quotes, if I do say so myself.
So let's get into the 4 ways your can get the most out of your marketing agency.
1. Trust
Be honest with yourself? Do you trust the agency that you are working with implicitly? If your answer is anything but a resounding 'yes' then I would advise you to stop all proceedings immediately.
Like you, we want to succeed at what we do; we WANT your business to increase and improve and because we want to see the results from the effort that we exhibit.
When your business succeeds, it means we have been successful. The beauty of digital marketing and digital agencies is the seamless blend of analytics and creativity, and I know that as a content writer, I take an enormous amount of pride in the pieces that I write.
From the research, the conception of the angle or title to the finished piece – my sole aim is to create a quality piece of work that I am proud of, that readers engage with and that has definitive impact for the client. Whether that results in an increase of web traffic, a positive impact on search engine rankings, brand recognition spreading or customers clearly converting on an e-commerce site.
A quality digital agency will create quality work that shows creativity, skill and integrity and you should trust them on this merit.
Trust them to write on your behalf, by all means, proof the work and offer advice and amends, even critique the work, constructively and positively of course. You are the expert in your industry, and while a good content writer will conduct significant research into the industry, its trends, and statistics – you can and you SHOULD give insider knowledge.
"Be a master of your craft, but know that you're not THE master." – Liz Wessel
2. Have Patience
In all honestly, you aren't going to see results overnight. If your main focus is lead generation, you may notice an increase in inbound leads quickly – but if your agency is taking a comprehensive approach to your marketing then give them time to produce quality work that yield quality results.
Sure, you can find an agency that will scatter a large volume of links around for you; probably on sites that don't have much relevancy to your business, accompanied by poorly written content, and you will probably experience a rise through the rankings.
Short term only, until Google Penguin rolls around again and then you can wave a cheery 'bye-bye' to any rankings and even reach the low of being de-indexed completely.
Here's an example that I came across, "Four years ago, I was at a conference in London when a friend told me about an SEO consultant he'd hired for £300/month who had got his website to #1 for a keyword that generated £10,000 per month in profits for his business.
While congratulations were in order, a quick look over the consultant's work made it clear that he'd unknowingly hired a black-hat link builder who was building thousands of dodgy links. I warned him against using this consultant, but his response was more or less "the proof is in the pudding".
Shortly after the penguin update, my friend lost all of his rankings and spent the good part of eighteen months filing disavow requests and building his business from scratch."
A quality digital marketing strategy will take time to reach a desirable result.
Allow your agency the time to gain valuable audience insights; who are your audience, where they live, the careers they are in, what are their interests, what brand affiliations do they currently have. Give them the time to research your competitors; how is their content/brand performing and who has given them exposure.
This information is a valuable tool that can give you a competitive edge. Once this is complete, a reputable agency will create engaging, insightful and informative content about topics they KNOW your audience will want to engage with. They will build relationships with publications/websites that are relevant to your business offering and publications that your audience already read.
Building these relationships take time –
"No matter how great the talent or efforts, some things just take time. You can't produce a baby in one month by getting nine women pregnant." – Warren Buffett.
3. Communicate
In the same way that you would communicate with your business partner, investors and employees – communicate with your marketing agency.
We are creative souls (some of us are technically minded too – double whammy!) and any company successes, ventures or unique company policies that you implement could be turned into an engaging, insightful article and a worthwhile placement!
Here at Datify, we hold authorship in high regard. Your team are probably experts in their roles, having some great lightbulb moments so why not share their knowledge?
Pitching a person rather than a 'salesy' story is a far more authentic approach…..but imagine our surprise and disdain when we secure an AWESOME placement only to find out the member of the team we have pitched has left the business :/ ?
All in all – the relationship isn't a passive one; your agency should be reporting to you about strategies and results, and you should be communicating the information that will help the campaigns, or at least make the process more efficient and productive.
Any tiny titbit of information, any budding idea you have – tell them all about it!
All this faceless communication leads to misunderstandings and the context to be overlooked completely. This a relationship remember – let's date! Bonding with your agency is so important, face to face meetings lead to lasting relationships; as much as I rib the guys in the office about the frequent 'lunch dates', all the face time with customer pays off for both parties.
"Much unhappiness has come into the world because of bewilderment and things left unsaid." – Fyodor Dostoyevsky.
4. Think Outside the Box
Your business probably has a great offering, but you need to be willing to contribute more than this one dimension.
Just like you as a person, don't be afraid to dig a little deeper and reveal all of the layers within your business! Industry experts and influencers are 'thought leaders'; they attract attention because they talk about their experiences, business values, corporate social responsibility – people WANT to hear from them.
If your agency comes to you for a quote about something that is outside the realm of your business offering, the biggest disservice you can pay to your business and yourself is to dismiss it and think, "what has this got to do with my company?". The best thing you can do, provide them with an insightful, knowledgeable comment and see where it leads.
Here is a great example; one of our clients works within the sports therapy and holistic treatment industry. I went to him one day and asked him for expert tips for interview candidates to calm nerves. He didn't question it, he gave me a great quote about how effective breathing can be for calming nerves, along with examples.
The result? He was featured in an article in The Guardian. (To truly understand the importance of this you may want to read about link equity and authority!)
I suppose this links closely to trust, but keep an open mind when it comes to digital marketing, particularly content marketing. Your agency should be noticing trending topics that you should jump on to gain exposure and pitch you as an expert. Roll with it.
"Begin challenging your own assumptions. Your assumptions are your windows on the world. Scrub them off every once in a while, or the light won't come in." – Alan Alda
A great client/agency relationship requires each party to invest in the other. Once you have the agency that you know in your heart (back to those emotions!) is a great fit – hold onto them, like you would a lover. Well not quite, that might be pushing the boundaries; maybe a close friend or your favourite cousin?
Openness, honesty and transparency and a little sprinkle of emotion leads to a beautiful (and profitable) relationship.

Part of the purpose is that they go via the motions and do not have fixed goals in thoughts. When that occurs, there is no detailed road map and strategy to achieve the achievement.
Those wishing to lose excess weight will most likely want to enroll in health and fitness classes designed for shedding pounds. This will raise obvious questions regarding which fitness classes should you enroll in if you want to shed a significant quantity of weight. There is no single solution to this as there are numerous various classes you can enroll in for excess weight loss.
Instead turn out to be an 'affiliate', that is sell someone else's product for a fee. You can get your campaign underway quickly, occasionally in hours. Not all will function but if, say, 1 in 5 does then you have made a valuable discovery that has price small money and not too much time.
Additional games that work with the Wii game console on your own include Deca Sports activities, Dance Sensation and Game Celebration. Dance Dance Revolution Most popular Party for the Wii also requires a dance pad that's sold separately.
Inspired on by my progress, I grew to become much more determined than at any time to maintain heading. I developed a plan to permit myself 1 "free working day" a 7 days to consume whatever I preferred and then tested my excess weight to see if it would function and if I was nonetheless dropping weight.
If you targeted on how fantastic you felt when you selected to avoid sweets (or have less), or when you selected some thing like fresh fruit rather, that might be enough to shift your beliefs about eating sweets.
Like brisk walking, jogging in location is a secure method for weight loss fitness. You start and progress at your own tempo, and progression can be easily controlled. You can change pace on the spot, from a fast sprinting in location to a regular or easy jogging in location. When a session is to be finished, it is also easy for the elevated respiration interval to recover. With some exercises or workouts, like a complete sprint, marathon, or mobile jogging, respiration pace restoration can sometimes be tough. Some even faint or finish up needing medical interest.
There is a lot conflicting guidance about what is good for you and what can assist you to lengthen your lifestyle but a common message is lose weight and get fitter. A great aerobic workout on a regular basis will do each of these.
The advertising methods that I have explained over are those that I use every working day to make cash online.There are numerous other ways of producing visitors, and ideally revenue, but I really feel comfortable detailing only those that I use every day and find to be effective.
If the weather is favorable, go for a good stroll or jog outside. With the use of the internet, it is easy to know what item sells, and what isn't popular. So, if you appreciate swimming then do that as an physical exercise routine.
