Hudson River Almanac July 18 - July 25, 2010
It was another sultry week with a warm river and squadrons of dragonflies. Were these all somehow connected? A school of small barracuda showed up in the East River, reminding us how the estuary is connected to the sea.
7/24 - Brooklyn, New York City: The DEC Hudson River Estuary Program, Brooklyn Bridge Park Conservancy, and The Coastal Marine Resource Center joined forces to celebrate the third annual City of Water Day with a group of forty adults and children. We seined under the Manhattan Bridge in Brooklyn Bridge Park and caught northern kingfish, winter flounder, northern puffer, northern pipefish, striped bass, bluefish, Atlantic silverside, comb jellies, sand shrimp and blue crabs. We also hauled the seine right into a small school of northern sennet, all of them 100-120 mm long.
- T.J. Ryan, Sarah Mount, Steve Stanne, Cynthia Fowx
[Northern sennet, along with a related species, guaguanche, are small barracuda. They are known from the Hudson River from only a few occurrences, 1986-1987 at Indian Point (HRM 42), and in the early 1990s at Croton Point (HRM 35). While they do not grow to the size of the great barracuda (six feet long), they still get to be 18-24 inches. Dery Bennett reported catching northern sennet in Sandy Hook Bay, and commented that they looked like "a miniature barracuda in all proportions." Tom Lake.]
7/18 - Town of Shandaken, HRM 92: Standing on our foot bridge across the Little Bushkill, a tributary of the Esopus Creek, we looked upstream and spotted a mink, thirty feet away, on the rocks at the side of the stream. It didn't notice us and we could see that it was hunting. It jumped into a small pool and we could watch it swimming sinuously, effortlessly, underwater, chasing something we could not see, perhaps small fish or invertebrates. It went up over some rocks and then into another pool all the while getting closer to us. It was as much at home under water as it was on land. Finally the mink disappeared from view under our feet, going under the bridge, then downstream, then back under the bridge again, until at one point it did not reappear.
- Peter Relson, Carol Anderson, Danny Davis
7/18 - Kowawese, HRM 59: It felt like we were on the set of the movie Groundhog Day - another scorcher in the 90s. The river, chest deep, was 84 degrees and felt like a sauna. On the first haul our seine filled with young-of-the-year [YOY] river herring. Two-thirds were blueback herring (56 mm); the other third was equally alewives (57 mm) and American shad (68 mm). A few YOY striped bass were also mixed in (45 mm). Salinity was 3.0 parts per thousand, just barely "tasteable." Rocks in the littoral zone (just below the reach of tide) had many tiny bay barnacles, a testament to the increasing salinity.
- Tom Lake, A. Danforth
[Bay barnacles (Balanus improvisus) are crustaceans related to shrimp, crabs, and lobsters. Their exoskeleton is a trap-door house made of small plates, within which the animal lives. Although it is unclear exactly how barnacle larvae arrive upriver in the freshwater reach above the Hudson Highlands to settle and attach to suitable substrate, their method of transport may be the flood tide current in times of low freshwater flow. Tom Lake.]
7/18 - Cornwall Bay, HRM 58: As the tide fell, an adult bald eagle was perched on a deadfall amidst acres of emerging shallows. Nearly a hundred Canada geese were scattered around as well, appearing to be fully at ease. The eagle must have already eaten.
- Tom Lake
7/19 - Town of Milan, HRM 90: I saw a turtle starting to cross Round Lake Road so I carried it over to where it was headed. Its smooth shell was maybe four inches long with one yellow spot on each plate on the carapace. Underneath, the plates were orange with an irregular black splotch in each one. I believe it was a spotted turtle, although my specimen seemed to lack color on the head, neck or legs as indicated in the guides.
- Alice McGovern
7/19 - Poughkeepsie, HRM 76: We visited the Fall Kill today on our rounds of looking for crabs. We finally got our hands on a live Chinese mitten crab, a male, 43 mm carapace width, under the Poughkeepsie train station. It is perpetual twilight under there and the crabs are occasionally out and visible. We also picked up eleven blue crab sheds and saw three live ones scurrying around in the rapids. There was a dead brown trout in the rapids. We have been seeing several 8-10 inch trout in the pools near the Children's Museum and saw several again today. The water temperature was 75 degrees Fahrenheit, pushing the upper limit that trout will tolerate. We wondered if the dead trout succumbed to the warm water.
- Bob Schmidt, Ian Hetterich, Nico Hernandez
7/19 - Manitou, HRM 46: I saw my first bats of the season this evening. As the last light of the day faded, three bats were flying around above the dried up lawn. I was hoping they were eating the mosquitoes that had been attacking me as I was trying to water the vegetable garden.
- Zshawn Sullivan
7/20 - Columbia County, HRM 118: For the last four evenings, we have been listening to katydids. I noticed a dark shape swoop and land on a telephone pole at the road's edge. After a short time, it came around my side of the pole and scurried up to the power lines. It was a flying squirrel. This was confirmed when it glided off into trees on our neighbor's property. All the flying squirrels I have seen closely were southern flying squirrels but I hear that the northern flying squirrels could potentially be here as well.
- Bob Schmidt
7/20 - Cornwall-on-Hudson, HRM 57: About sixty children from the Cornwall-on-Hudson Summer Camp came to the beach to watch us seine and hear about the Hudson River. Among the catch were YOY smallmouth bass, striped bass, and river herring (alewives and blueback herring). Even though we did our best to dump the net back in the water quickly to limit fish mortality, a half-dozen river herring drifted motionless ... that is until a large blue crab swam into the swash right at our feet and grabbed the herring. Nothing goes to waste. As the program concluded, we noticed that the grassy field next to the river was swarming with scores, maybe hundreds, of dragonflies.
- Sarah Mount, Rebecca Houser, Tom Lake
7/20 - Croton River, HRM 34: I was glancing across the Croton River at last light - in that light purple shadows give an added dimension to the riverscape making it even more bucolic - when a great blue heron swooped in, only inches above the flat water, and landed among the rocks on the far shore. Not to be outdone, a cormorant executed a perfect three point landing, dove, and then surfaced with only his serpentine neck emerging.
- Sandy Plotkin
7/20 - Manhattan, HRM 4: I was at Pier 62 in Chelsea when I noticed that the new carousel that opened this year has animals from the Hudson River Valley, including peregrine falcon, cormorant, Canada goose, raccoon and black bear. There was one exception - a unicorn. But who knows, maybe in some distant imaginary time there were some. The carousel also has a "green roof" that includes prickly pear cactus that can be found on shoreline areas in New York City.
- Regina McCarthy
7/21 - Newcomb, HRM 302: When Toby Rathbone and I went out for our walk there were platoons of dragonflies skimming the road and yards, and squadrons of them patrolling overhead. They were all "darners" (the big guys). I've never seen so many at once. We ran into Charlotte Demers from the SUNY-ESF Ecological Center shortly after we started our walk, and she was amazed by the sight, too. I suspect there might have been a hatch.
- Ellen Rathbone
7/21 - Poesten Kill, HRM 152: Stopping by the Poesten Kill in Troy, we were looking over the First Street Bridge when we spotted four shorthead redhorse. These are large suckers that we rarely see elsewhere in the tidal Hudson. They had orange and red fins and were calmly feeding on the surface of rocks. In the early summer the fins are bright red.
- Bob Schmidt, Bryan Weatherwax, Ian Hetterich, Nico Hernandez
[The shorthead redhorse is a member of the sucker family. They are well known from the Mohawk River and its tributaries, and were collected from the Poesten Kill in 2001. Like the brook silverside, the shorthead redhorse has expanded its range downstream from the Mohawk into the Hudson in the last decade. Tom Lake.]
7/21 - Pleasant Valley. HRM 77: While out watering my vegetables and watching butterflies this morning, I spotted cabbage whites, a single red-spotted purple who's been around the yard for most of a week, and then a swallowtail flitting by. My first thought was tiger swallowtail. But after it hung around about a minute I realized that it was a giant swallowtail. This was the first one I have seen in New York, although I found them common in south Florida and south Texas.
- Don Pizzuto
7/22 - Columbia County, HRM 114: Chris Nack, a SUNY-ESF Master's student studying habitat use by larval American shad, collected a sample in a secondary channel at Rogers Island on June 11. Unexpectedly, he found shad larvae full of young zebra mussels (a life-stage called veliger). The fish were 17-18 mm long and contained, on average, 22 tiny zebra mussel veligers. One larval shad had eaten 49 veligers. The only previous report of larval fish (white perch) consuming zebra mussel veligers in the Hudson was by Nack's advisor Karin Limburg and student Kristi Arend in 1994. Ironically, Chris' grandfather, Everett Nack, was the first person to discover the presence of zebra mussels in the Hudson River (1991), also at Rogers Island.
- Tom Lake
7/22 - Ulster County: The presence of the emerald ash borer, a green beetle native to Asia, has been confirmed in Ulster County. New York has 900 million ash trees, representing about 7% of all trees in the state. Since 2002, the emerald ash borer has killed 70 million ash trees in 13 mid-western states and Pennsylvania. It spreads 15-20 miles per year. Ash is a critical riparian tree; a recent survey found that over half of the trees along the Mohawk River are ash. If the emerald ash borer grabs a foothold in New York, one could conclude that where ash is present in riparian forests at high densities you'll likely see some impacts to streams such as increases in water temperature.
- Kevin Grieser, Riparian Buffer Coordinator, NYSDEC Hudson River Estuary Program
7/22 - Crugers, HRM 39: After the heavy rain and hail of overnight, I looked out the window and spotted a female red-bellied woodpecker busily pecking at the peanut feeder. It was soon joined by another, only without the red around its neck - a juvenile red-bellied. Then came a female downy and a blue jay. When I went outside to determine if the storm had done any damage, I looked up to see two great blue herons flying over, side-by-side, large shapes against the clear blue sky. Their awesome size never ceases to amaze me.
- Dorothy Ferguson
7/22 - Ossining, HRM 33: As we walked out toward the river in early afternoon we were surrounded by a swarm of dragonflies with orange bodies and double sets of clear gossamer wings. They kept swooping and swirling around us, not alighting anywhere. We usually see dragonflies scooting over ponds in search of insects, but these just kept on flying around us. There must have been thirty or more of them.
- Dorothy Ferguson, Dorothy Casey
7/23 - Little Stony Point, HRM 55: Fourteen teachers from a NYS Outdoor Education Association workshop joined us on the beach to see who was home in the river. After a morning deluge (half-inch of rain) the river had cooled off to 78 degrees. Salt was still detectable at about 2.5 parts per thousand. We wondered if habitat could attract certain species, so our seining included sampling of open water along a sandy beach and a nearby shallow bay with aquatic vegetation. Before we began, a raven flew low overhead and on up the beach. Ravens and peregrine falcons nest in the rocks faces of Storm King and Breakneck Ridge, which - along with Mount Taurus - comprise the northern gateway to the Hudson Highlands.
Along the beach we caught many YOY river herring was well as striped bass, spottail shiners, and two brackish water species, Atlantic silverside and bluefish. The latter two are fish of "open water" so their presence, given the location and the salinity, was not surprising. In the bay we caught many more YOY river herring and striped bass. However, the more sheltered, less dynamic habitat of the bay held banded killifish, pumpkinseed, smallmouth bass, and tessellated darters. "Jimmie" and "Sally" blue crabs, of all sizes, were everywhere.
- Rebecca Houser, Steve Stanne, Tom Lake
[Blue crabs have several colloquial names. Adult males are called "Jimmies," mature females are called "Sooks," and immature females are known as "Sallys." New York State regulations require "keeper" blue crabs to be at least 4.5-inch hard-shell carapace width. No more than 50 per day, and no females with eggs (sponge crabs), may be in possession. Tom Lake.]
7/23 - Brooklyn, New York City: The Coastal Marine Resource Center and the Brooklyn Bridge Park Conservancy seined under the Manhattan Bridge in Brooklyn Bridge Park with a group of 50 children from the Center for Family Life. We caught blue crabs, amphipods, a nine-inch "clam" worm, a hermit crab, sand shrimp, shore shrimp, comb jellies, hydromedusae, Atlantic silversides, winter flounder, a northern pipefish, a YOY striped bass, and two northern puffers.
- Cynthia Fowx
7/24 - Town of Poughkeepsie, HRM 75: The air temperature reached 95 degrees Fahrenheit today, one degree short of the record for the date.
- National Weather Service
7/24 - Town of Wappinger, HRM 67: Not long after dark an intense thunderstorm simply appeared. Rather than the usual sweep of a single storm this one seemed to be everywhere at once - pyrotechnics lit up a 360 degree horizon. After 45 minutes of relentless downpour (more than an inch of rain), the storm finally left.
- Tom Lake
7/25 - Ulster Park, HRM 87: We saw our first clymene moth in about 10 years today. It had a bold "fleur de lis" pattern on a cream-colored background. Its folded-wing position formed a crisp triangle. This all caused it to stand out vividly as it rested on some leaves. I remember having had a really hard time identifying the first one we ever saw because the picture in the guide had its wings spread open, which made it look very different.
- Peter Relson and Carol Anderson
[Clymene moths are relatively large (49-50 mm) and colorful "tiger moths" found in central, southern and eastern North America. Tom Lake.]
7/25 - Buchanan, HRM 40.5: While driving past Indian Point this evening, we spotted what we thought was a German shepherd sauntering across the road. As we got closer, we realized that it was a large, healthy looking coyote.
- Dianne Picciano, Phil Picciano
7/25 - Crugers, HRM 39: We were just about knocked out of bed just after midnight by a horrendous thunderstorm. Never before have I seen so much lightning nor heard such rolling thunder! This lasted for about forty minutes. The sky is starting to clear and the almost full moon was peering through the clouds.
- Dianne Picciano

To celebrate the opening of the 107th National Western Stock Show, we've dug into the files for some colorful coverage from the past. Posted here are pages from Empire magazine published January 11, 1970, the 64th year of the show.
[media-credit id=471 align="aligncenter" width="495″] [1][/media-credit]
Western artist Phil Hayward [2]'s vibrant paintings [3] show the body action of the horses [4], riders and animals in graphic colors and shapes. Note the texture of the steers' hides and dust kicked up by their hooves. Every living being is straining at top speed, working for, or against, horse and rider. He has captured the real cowboys [5] and working stock that perform each year when the National Western arrives in Denver.

The Emergency Solutions Grant (known as ESG) is funded by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Homeless Emergency Assistance and Rapid Transitions to Housing Act of 2009 (HEARTH Act).
The Department of Commerce is a Grantee of HUD and will administer this award for eligible counties and cities that are not direct recipients of HUD.
The purpose of the ESG program is to provide homelessness prevention assistance to households who would otherwise become homeless and to provide assistance to rapidly re-house persons who are experiencing homelessness. The funds under this program are intended to target individuals and families who would be homeless but for this assistance. The funds will provide for a variety of assistance, including: short-term or medium-term Rental Assistance, Housing Search and Placement, and Housing Stability Case Management.
Commerce is currently seeking input on Housing and Community Development needs. The Draft 2014 Action Plan will be available for a 30-day public comment period beginning March 1, 2014.
Commerce does not provide direct services to people experiencing homelessness or who are at-risk of becoming homeless. These links to local service providers and housing authorities will connect you with organizations that can help.

text: The craze for vacant real estate is due in large part to a lack of attractive alternatives. Strict controls on capital outflows prevent most Chinese citizens from investing any real money abroad. Chinese bank deposits earn very low interest rates — lower, for the past year now, than the rate of consumer inflation. The public sees the country's domestic stock exchanges, which have endured volatile ups and downs over the last few years, as little more than high-risk casinos. In contrast, real estate, which has not seen a sustained downturn since China first converted to private homeownership in the 1990s, has long looked like a sure bet.

My last day of work is over until January 3rd
I picked up a "Snowflake Latte' " from Wegman's (grocery store) on my way home to give me a little energy boost to now begin wrapping presents...nope, haven't even started yet
I promised DH we would not wait until Christmas Eve to start because we (meaning he) ends up running to Walgreens at 10:00 pm to pick up another gift for one of the kids to even things out, because that's the only place still open
Let's see if I make it tonight....
I have a 12 year old daughter and a 16, almost 17 (2 weeks away) son and am from Maryland, btw
So, how was everyone's day??
Hi E
Deb, I doubt your kids really still count gifts, do they?
That's the only reason I don't want more than one. I HATE the he/she has more whatever ********. I take it away from BOTH when they pull that. But, as much as I can't image taking attention away from dd, I do believe she needs a brother or sister. We'll see.
Here's a thought-why don't you count BEFORE Christmas Eve? lol.
We're not wrapping this year.
I can't believe I said that. I didn't wrap dd's, and I just don't have time or energy for it. Dh doesn't care. I figure it's just more mess to clean. lol. I'd rather spent time with dd. He already gave me my big gift, and honestly, there's nothing more I want.
Hi everyone, glad this place 24 hours, though I'm in bed by 9pm most nights. I being bad and staying up a few minutes late tonight. After dd was asleep, I made cookies (from the tube this year...but hey, I put them in the oven).
To introduce myself, I'm E. Long time sb member, though I currently don't scrap (no time or space), and I did mostly digital last year. I'm a spoiled only child, mother to 2 month dd, married to code monkey for some odd years. Before being a mother, I loved to garden and photography. I do hope to be able to do some planting this spring.
I hope everyone has a great eve of Christmas Eve and may tomorrow and Christmas be stressful and peaceful.

Hi Ladies...
What a wonderful surprise it was when I checked my email and saw a notice of a PM from Deb on this Chat. I love little spots like these for ladies to chat. I can just picture the decor in my head.
I have been out all day getting some last minute things done. I had to go pick up Tamales and I was just in time. They were getting really low on the home made ones. The grocery store was a made house. I was thinking that I was finally in for the weekend and ......
My hubby showed up at 8:00 after working over to make up for the days they are forced to take off without pay (or use vacation). He brought my 7 year old step son with him. I was not prepared to entertain SANTA this year. I already have all of his gifts wrapped and under the tree. Guess who is going out tonight and fight the crowd at Walmart......... Yes that would be me. Santa made a big showing last year at our house (also a last minute thing). He would not understand if the jolly fellow did not come down the chiminey and leave the same kind of loot.
I have been making things for the other kids but this little guy is a different story. Oh what life was like through the eyes of a 7 year old at Christmas.
HO HO HO!!!!!!!! Merry Christmas!!!!!

Evening everyone. I do believe it's going to be an all nighter for me. Made the mistake of laying down on the couch to watch a bit of tv at 6:30 and only just woke up at 10:30.
May as well have the good coffee. I don't think it's going to matter tonight.
I have no gifts to wrap so all the stress if off this year. Also made christmas shopping so much easier. Didn't have to fight any crowds and I won't have to worry about any returns.
Good to see so many wonderful places. Oh and Martica. I would really appreciate a tip.

I did the same thing, Deb! But I won't be up much longer; until my thyroid gets fixed I can't stay awake for very long. LOL earlier this week I got frustrated and drank two Amp energy drinks. With 32 oz. of that stuff in my stomach I was still sleepy! Although I did end up staying awake because I had to pee about a dozen times in an hour!

Hi E
Deb, I doubt your kids really still count gifts, do they?
No, E, my kids have NEVER counted gifts, but I do...I want them both to have close to the same, and we try to spend the same amount of money on each of them, which doesn't always make the number of gifts equal, if that makes sense. Zan has 4 less gifts than Annie right now, but we spent more money on him, so we're picking up a few gift cards for each of them tomorrow and calling it done...they are spoiled brats...we just spent 4 hours wrapping!!!
Why don't I count before Christmas Eve normally??? Because I do 99.9% of my shopping online and don't have the time nor the energy to even take the stuff out of the boxes they were shipped in until then
I'm actually still waiting on at least 1 package in the mail for my sister...I honestly lose track of what I've ordered because I started shopping this year at the end of October, which is really early for me

Just got back from Wal-mart. The wait in line to pay was worse than the crowds in the isles. About 40 minutes in line. The ladies in front of me seemed like old friends by the time we made it to the register. I think that I am ready now. I tried to order a jersey on line for my 19 yr old step son and it would not take, but they held my card for the amount twice. Once for the on-line try and once for the phone try. Now what since does that make??? My son (30 yr)just had to have major car repairs done. I am giving him a photo of a radiator and a starter wrapped up. Hubby and I will not exchange gifts this year. I got him some little things thou. I am ready for a shower and bed.
Katiemylady, I feel your pain. I take meds for my thyroid everyday. I have been on them for prob 15 yrs. Not only is your body tired all the time, but hair and nails are screwed up. Not to mention weight and emotional problems.
Hope you have homeowners insurance to cover your diamond. I found one of mine that I lost one time weeks later on the carpet that had been vacuumed several times. Luck. Wishing some your way.
Merry Christmas Eve Ladies.
I will stop in for some tea and chat after some sleep. It is after midnight.

It doesn't matter what time I go to Wal-mart, the line is always bad! If I go too late they only have one register open, if I go during normal hours there are a lot more people
You can't win lol.
Can't believe I didn't fall back asleep. I took a couple of pictures of our tree yesterday and I'm editing them now -- I hope to use them on a Christmas layout. I haven't made a LO since I started scrapping again, gotta work on that
Lorna, I've had the thyroid problem for just a little over 6 years. When I realized that the tremors I was getting in July went away when I ran out of my medicine, I decided to stop taking it and see how I felt. I didn't feel any symptoms of low hormone so I left it at that. I started feeling like I had mono several weeks ago and it only hit me last week that these are my hypothyroid symptoms -- felt the same way before it got diagnosed. It truly screws with every system in your body! It's crazy how such a small bit of hormone can make you feel like you're dying. I'm not having the blood test until Tuesday so I'm not sure how low it is, but it's low enough, I know that lol.
I saw a trick on Pinterest that might help Deb2...if you put panty hose/tights over the end of the hose on your vacuum (keep it taut with a rubber band), you can get the suction power without actually sucking up what you're looking for. So if you know where you might have lost it that could be worth trying.

Uh-oh, I knew it was too good to be true. I fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow and pouf, 2 am I'm wide awake...so I figured I'd stop in the cafe and grab some warm milk.....
Deb, I do the same thing with my kiddos....I try to give them each the same amount of gifts and spend the same exact $$$. I feel guilty if one gets more than the other.... They certainly don't care what I give. I continue to spoil them (35 and 37 yrs old) and can't wait to be able to spoil my grandkiddos, if my sons ever decide on getting married and make me a happy nana!!!!!! Need to nudge them a lil more
Sorry about losing a diamond from your ring...bummer!!!
OK...should try to get some shut-eye. We are invited for Christmas Eve dinner at 2 pm! Kinda early....I like the eve celebrated in the ummm, EVE!!!!!

The Portland Zoning Code contains regulations that specify when land use approvals and related actions expire. Because of the condition of the economy, many who have received land use approvals or other land use actions have found it difficult to proceed within the timelines set out in the Zoning Code.
In 2009, City Council extended the expiration dates with the expectation that the economy would recover by this year. Because Oregon's economy is still down, this project proposes to extend the expiration dates to mid-2014. For more information, visit www.portlandonline.com/bps/lurextension.

Training camp is over but when crunch time comes Desk-kun wants out. Chihaya gets shaken but rejoice for she might soon be stirred for Chihaya might have a rival. Kana-chan wins her first match. Taichi fails at leading and coaching. Its game time and only three are really game on.
While Chihaya has put a squad together to compete for a regional championship expectations were muted but Desk-kun thought he was a beast in karuta and got thumped. Like his hero Taichi Desk-kun fears losing and has no composure when the heat is on. Fortunately Desk-kun lacked the intelligence to actually cheat, but his loser attitude boiled over and somehow shocked Chihaya to her core. Talk about lacking respect for the game, Desk-kun is a fucking n00b playing in a tournament everyone else was preparing the whole year for and yet he thinks that he is so talented and awesome that he would just walk in there and fucking blow out the competition. Well, all of you naysayers who commented that Desk-kun would pull his head out of his ass, I FUCKING CALLED IT. Not only does Desk-kun keep failing as a person he reaches new lows when he quit in the middle of it.
Sure they aren't a team yet, what the fuck does he expect? You just put people together and that makes them a team? No, that's not how it works and it was thanks to Taichi that focused on match ups and basically put Desk-kun out to dry along with Kana-chan because he had not faith in them what so ever. However being a dumbass Desk-kun blames Chihaya… That is fucked up, hell if Desk-kun was on my team and he did that his ass would not only be cut from the roster he might find himself falling down a couple stories. I am sure that some fucking idiot with a bleeding heart is going to argue that it was Chihaya's fault. It wasn't she did all she could to put Desk-kun in a position to succeed and it was still Taichi who threw Desk-kun out to get crushed, and even then it was Pork-bun's sound strategy and Taichi merely botched the implementation.
All one has to do is look at how Kana-chan just went out there to play and she played to win because she followed Pork-bun's advice, take it easy and just play the game. She didn't always win but she kept at it despite the losses and won one for Chihaya. Now that is worthy of song and praise, Kana-chan understood that she was a rookie playing against seasoned veterans and kept her ego in check. That is something that I like to see, that is something that was a given, and all the credit in the world to Kana-chan for recognizing that and respecting the game. It's just sad that Desk-kun had to rage quit the game when the going got tough and he left weeping. I think it was great of Kana-chan to be the superior person and tell Desk-kun to his face what a fool and ingrate he was for losing his cool when he started losing. Sadly for better or for worse (probably worse) Desk-kun was forgiven for his melt down, he should have been cut and on any other club he would have been sent packing. However until a better player can be found Chihaya will have to settle for less.
I was surprised that Chihaya put so much weight on Desk-kun's tirade to the point she lost her composure as well. Her magnanimous heart does her credit but in this case it nearly meant her doom. She did Kana-chan and Desk-kun right by giving them a real training camp against Taichi's advice and Kana-chan is proof of that. She won't get that kind of devotion all the time and she needs to realize that she can only do so much off the mat that she has to leave the onus on her players to a point when it's game time. She can beat the snot out of them when practicing but when it's game time the best she can do is hope that Kana-chan and Desk-kun have enough sense and cool to do well. Desk-kun wasn't right she wanted to spread love of karuta and Desk-kun decided to join to follow his man crush on Taichi. Desk-kun will not win a game until he respects the game and puts in the time and played the game for real. Chihaya could not have foreseen that Desk-kun was so fucking wimpy that he would crumble after a few matches. Teams need chemistry they are not simply a collection of parts or people, and the only way you get chemistry is by going through hard times and good times together. It's like the peanut gallery said they were a first year team and they hadn't gone through the growing pains and their players did not respect the game enough. Moreover they hit it dead on why Chihaya wasn't lighting up the competition, they had an argument and it showed.
While Kana-chan was the bright spot in all this the fail did not stop with Desk-kun as it should have once again Taichi tried to take over the team with his "excellent" coaching. You have to be retarded to think that a pat on the head will change the momentum of a game, maybe that shit will fly in terrible fiction but that doesn't work. What works is essentially telling your team that they have a chance to win and that they got to take it one play at a time and that victory must be grasped and forcefully taken. Instead Taichi plays the match up game and throws Kana-chan and Desk-kun under the bus and flat out tells them that they can't be relied on to win so they should just lose. He does it on Pork-bun's sound advice but fails to remind Kana-chan and Desk-kun that they are still expected to play their best. He then allows Desk-kun to poison the team and lets Desk-kun go on Desk-kun's terms. That was a dumb move because it validated Desk-kun's outburst. Even worse Taichi gives Chihaya the patented Mashima family motto, "You can't lose." Like I have said before when you play not to lose, you will lose, and that advice has demolished Taichi's hopes and dreams for most of his life and it just goes to show how terrible a motto it is when Chihaya nearly lost in a blowout. Just all round awful coaching and as if a pat on the head brought victory, well if Taichi had been giving good advice and holding Desk-kun accountable it would not have been a problem. That pat didn't with the game Chihaya won her game after hearing Desk-kun apologize, Pork-bun was never in trouble and Kana-chan was always in the fight. All it did was reassure Taichi that it wasn't his fault that he did no wrong when the only right thing he did was call a time out.
Fact is Taichi should not be the one coaching the team it should be Pork-bun because Pork-bun has a better game and has a grasp of team karuta schemes. It was Pork-bun who made up the line up and demanded change once they got deeper in the tournament. Moreover Nishida had the proper attitude, yes the rookies were to play the toughest competition, but they were still expected to play even if they probably weren't going to win. It was a continuation of Steel Sharpens Steel and that you get better when you play tougher opponents. Good of Taichi to follow his advice, but shame on Taichi for not telling Desk-kun like Pork-bun told Kana-chan that they should still play and play to win when possible. Nishida was the tourney veteran and there was no reason why it should not have been Nishida doing the line up and coaching the team. Chihaya is the heart and soul of the team and club, but Nishida clearly has the brains and experience to lead them during tournament time. I was most delighted that Pork-bun out-shone both Taichi and Desk-kun and acquitted himself well in the tournament and repaid Chihaya's faith in him and his abilities. He also has a winning attitude and focuses on winning instead of not losing like Taichi. Anyone who knows anything about winning knows that you don't think of losing period, you just focus on winning and you play every game like it is your last. Losers behave like Taichi with their "can't lose" attitudes and "it could be be my last game." It should always be I want a win, this is my last game so I won't hold back and regret that I did not give my all. I really like how Nishida reacted to Desk-kun's outburst, that Desk-kun was not allowed to leave and that he was out of line in insulting Kana-chan and Chihaya. Pork-bun got up for that and I just only wish Pork-bun just punched the shit out of Desk-kun for being an ingrate and not a team player. Taichi just sat there and took Desk-kun's shit.
Still that near loss and subsequent comeback at least brought Chihaya to the attentions of a great karuta power in Hokuo and one Sudo the Sadist. Taichi is never going to raise Chihaya's game, Pork-bun can give her a good fight, but it is quite likely that Sudo is Class A and can give Chihaya mighty fits. Moreover I think Sudo is a likely rival candidate and would be able to give Taichi mighty fits when Sudo asserts himself as a contender for Chihaya's attention. Most interestingly of all though is that the reigning Karuta Queen is powerful foe, I cannot wait to see this show down between Chihaya and the current Queen. Also way to go Kana-chan for making good on her contract demands and promoting her family business as well as showing off Chihaya as a lady.
Hana's thoughts: on Dem Clothes
Firstly, can I just be really girly and say how great everyone looked in this episode? I'll take that as a 'Yes'. Seriously, Chihaya, Taichi and Kana-chan looked stunning, and even 'Desko-kun' and Nishida looked rather smart in their respective pale and navy blue hakama. Thankfully, the Scooby Gang don't just know how to scrub up well, but know how to bust a move on the tatami floor too. Well, eventually. Yes, eye-rolling at Desko-kun's tantrum and Chihaya's deafness aside, most of the episode flowed pretty well in terms of getting everyone through round one of that tourney for the first time together as a team without making it all look too easy and allowing them to show off their skills as well. Perhaps the biggest not-so-surprising surprise though, was the slow, but steady Manning-Up of Taichi. Yes, I disagree with Crusader's overly-harsh view of Taichi. Moving on. I thought he really showed true leadership and team-work skills, without forgetting how much he still wants Chihaya all for himself either. And this is another reason why I thought Taichi's attire was appropriate. Clearly, those greens look great with his colouring, particularly against his hair and eyes, but I also think that the green works well as a symbol of both his jealousy of old, and of the more nurturing/ supportive role he resolves to take on in future. 'Green-eyed monster' and 'Gardener', if you will. The latter idea is also supported by the flower print on Chihaya's hakama, which (aside from looking damn pretty) could in turn symbolise her as a flower-like talent that needs cultivating in order to fully develop. Overall, clothes are important to all the teams we've already seen so far in the tourney, and I like the way they were used in this episode to aid the bonding between the main characters and to fuse their identity as a team.

Suddenly, the east looks richly rewarding – KK Chadha
Suppliers of fashion goods and other luxuries are taking a more active interest in Asia.
Gloabl luxury brands have been looking to Asia for salvation as the effects of governement stimuli wear off and the prospect of a double-dip recession threatens the wealthy economies of Europe, the US and Japan.
Consultancy Bain & Co predicts luxury goods sales of 158 billion euros ($210 bn) this year, up 4% after a drop of 8% in 2009, mainly driven by sales in Asia. China, with 1.3 billion consumers, is now the world's number-two luxury goods market, with sales up 12% in 2009 to $9.6 bn, accounting for 27.5% of global market.

Grand Rapids (WZZM) - A new partnership in Grand Rapids will get some area students moving.
The Grand Rapids Public Schools and Spectrum Health have teamed up to create Jump Jam.
It's a jump rope competition Saturday, April 20th for students in third to fifth grades.
"One of the goals is to have kids engage in activities that are beneficial, that will help them engage in healthy lifestyle practices," said Kurt Johnson with Grand Rapids Public Schools. "Sometimes those things need to be fun so they don't even realize they're doing exercise."
At least 600 kids have already signed up for the competition at DeVos Place.
Online registration is closed, but children who would like to get involved can register at their schools.
Along with the kids' competitions, a challenge was issued between GRPS Superintendent Teresa Weatherall-Neal and Steve Heacock of Spectrum Health.
So a team from the school system will compete against a team from Spectrum Health.
To learn more about Jump Jam, click here.

In his only planned speech during a three-nation, four-day European trip, President Obama talked about U.S. relations with the European Union at the Palais des Beaux-Arts in Brussels. He said that the borders of Europe could not be re-drawn with force and addressed Russia's justifications for entering Ukraine. President Obama also compared Russia's decision to annex Crimea with the U.S. intervention in Iraq, saying the U.S. sought to work within the international system and not "annex Iraq." close

Bliss Fuzz Off Hair Removal Cream
Buzz off hairy upper lip! Bliss Fuzz Off Hair Removal Cream removes facial fuzz on the fly in three minutes.
I got time for that.
Bliss Fuzz Off Hair Removal Cream ($24) is a water based facial creme formulated with skin-soothing aloe, willow herb, vitamin E and a moisturizing botanical complex.
With a fresh-scent this one step hair removal cream features a unique, two-sided, dual-textured tip to help gently nix facial fuzz in three little minutes.
I typically wax my upper lip and thread my brows. The occasional chin hair has been known to come out and play, no shame in my game..in that case I also have it waxed away. I don't do my own waxing, I go to a salon have it done because me and wax that's like DANGER, DANGER, DANGER.
But I'd be willing to try this out. The only problem is I've tried ones by Sally Hansen in the past and they don't really work well…I'm always left rubbing my upper lip raw to remove the cream and the hair. Olay also has something similar I've been wanting to try!
But if anyone is going to get hair removal right I would picture it being Bliss….
So perhaps I shall indulge.
What do you think?
3/7/13 11:41 Littlecreek81:
I have a lot of faith in Bliss. I would definately give this a shot over most drugstore brands. I'll probably pick this up when I go to the store for a baby break (only 4.5 weeks til my due date can you believe it!?!)
3/7/13 11:43 Mandy:
I'm curious about this! All the Sally Hansen and Nair products I've tried feel like they burn my face off.
3/7/13 11:46 Angela:
I use Olay's product – works really well (but potent if you leave it on for too long). Waxing is SOOOO painful if you try to do it yourself (unsuccessfully, like me, LOL!).
3/7/13 11:57 Cj:
*smears it all over my face* TELL ME IM PRETTY!!
I seriously need to get laser on my face, having to shave every other day is a pain in the butt. Girls have it so easy
3/7/13 12:39 carrie:
CJ you are GORGEOUS! I think I may need this ….aside from the upper lip I have like 4 random evil hairs that show up on my chin (eww) and one dark one that occasionally pops up on my jaw (more eww) if I had the money I would be lazer-ing all over the damn place!
3/7/13 13:28 carrie:
And they are so random! I'll be on the lookout and they won't show for months then BAM! Overnight! And typically my bf is the one who spots them. And points them out to me. What a doll
3/7/13 12:26 Michelle:
Talking about hairy … I had to get laser on my damn neck.
Anyhoo … I'd give this a go. Never tried a cream before, but have found that the waxing strips from Sally Hanson will take your skin off, but still leave hair. Not. Cool. Since then I've learned to thread my lip – less pain and keeps my skin on my face
3/7/13 14:46 Seagulls:
Where did you learn from? The youtube tutorials I've found have not been particularly informative.
3/7/13 14:59 Michelle:
Seagulls, I watched a few you tube videos. There are some really wacky vid's out there, but a few were quite helpful. I can't remember off the top of my head which ones I found most helpful, sorry
3/7/13 13:06 kitty:
Hi. I was wondering are those cream removals take out the follicle? Cruz I've only tried ones that just take off the exposed part…. Which IMO is the same as shaving……just with chemicals…..
But just wanted to put it out there that I'm one of those weirdos who waxes her own lip. I've found only hard wax works. Sally hansen has a hard, stripless (no cloth backing required) specially for the face that does a really good job grabbing all the little hairs. The regular soft wax or wax strips r just too sticky to put on my face.
3/7/13 13:08 kitty:
Omg my grammar……
3/7/13 13:18 Lisa:
I wonder if this would work on peach fuzz. All of the sudden at 43 I'm covered in pretty heavy peach fuzz. Gah.
3/7/13 13:34 Lisa:
OMG HAHAHA! Nope. Stroke away.
3/7/13 14:11 Flavia Signori:
Ohhh! I would love to try this one *-*
I hate wax so much, but I have to do, 'cause I don't think my skin will be free from inconvenient hair for a long time if I use gilette.
If you try it, please share!
3/7/13 14:16 Deb:
I have the one from Olay and have used it twice. It burns like crazy, left my upper lip area red for 3 days. And I followed the directions to the letter. I used it twice (several weeks apart) because after the first time I thought I must have done something wrong. Nope, it's just harsh. Same results second time around. And I do not have sensitive skin. Maybe Bliss has figured out how to do it right but I'm not going to even try.
3/7/13 16:11 Cleo:
I've done the lazer on my face thing – it is great
After about 6-8 treatments, you can touch up once or twice a year… it's been heaps better than having to wax my face (lip, chin, cheeks etc. thanks hormones for making me extra hairy!)
The only *wierd* thing about it is shaving – so you don't wax anymore, or pluck (although only during the main treatment phase)… So that can get a bit strange.
3/7/13 16:26 Simone:
I know it's awful, but I always get fed up with these types of products, and end up shaving (yes like a dude) my upper lip!
I also have maybe three random dark hairs that pop out of a scar I have on my chin, so weird! I pluck those.
Maybe ill give this a shot…
3/8/13 2:15 Cleo:
I'd give lazer a shot Simone – if you've got fair skin and dark hair it works best… just talk to a clinic about it. Worth that much time at least.
3/7/13 22:00 Quinctia:
I like the Parisa wax strips way too much to ever bother with this.
3/8/13 0:09 Iris:
I currently use Nair's one for the face and it works very well for me. I am willing to give this a try despite the price tag being a bit high.
3/8/13 0:33 KhaliaNicole@Glamour&Love:
I was totally gonna ask about the Olay until I read thru the comments! Thank you, Deb! Muse, I say you try the bliss for us! Be our guinea pig!
3/8/13 18:57 Cindy Ramirez:
Um funny story about home waxing… My aunt use to own a little hair salon at one point and when it closed down she used my sisters basement as storage for all the left over equipment. My sister thought she could wax my eyebrows using the big hot pot of wax and a Popsicle stick. She ended up spilling wax IN MY HAIR. Oh god. Moral of the story: Leave waxing to the professionals.
3/13/13 16:03 Cindy Ramirez:
We ended up cutting out the part of hair my sister spilled wax in. Wasn't pretty, probably should have went to a professional!
3/11/13 2:06 melissa:
I bought the olay at costco for a fabulous price. I have used it many times on my upper lip and no problem. This one is a balm you put on and then layer the cream over it. I leave it on 6-7 minutes rinse off and smooth no reaction. I tend to be sensitive so I guess I got lucky. I might check out the bliss when I run out in the next 20 years from my costco olay pack ha.
3/12/13 22:12 Jasmine:
If I ever have the money I'd try!!! Haha I'm such a hairy girl my stupid hairs grow back the minute I wax thread or shave! Damn. Had to settle for ipl for some areas but it was way too ex!! Sigh. Muse what do you think of the bliss oxygen series!!
4/6/13 7:12 Rebecca:
I also use Nair and haven't had any problems so far(I have only used it twice)
