rated PG-13

I don't know how much Men In Black 3 actually cost. I don't know the details of the behind-the-scenes turmoil that shut the film down for a period so the filmmakers could frantically rewrite the screenplay. I don't know what got removed and what got added or changed along the way. But the highest compliment that I can pay this third installment in the series is that none of the backstage drama shows. The story makes sense, there are few real plot holes, and the actors exude confidence and charm in a screenplay that balances trailer-friendly set pieces and gags with genuine storytelling and character growth. The world may not have needed another Men In Black picture, but director Barry Sonnenfeld and writers Etan Cohen, David Koepp, Jeff Nathanson, and Michael Soccio have crafted a shockingly good one, arguably the best in the series. This is accomplished and polished popcorn entertainment that is refreshingly light on its feet. For what it's worth, I thought the first Men In Black was somewhat overrated while Men In Black 2 was *slightly* underrated. Men In Black 3 is the first in the series that I would call almost-great.
A token amount of plot: After alien assassin 'Boris the Animal' (Jemaine Clement) breaks out of jail and vows revenge against the agent who put him away forty years ago, Agent K (Tommy Lee Jones) takes it personally, to the worry of his longtime partner Agent J (Will Smith). Attempts to find out what happened forty years ago turn up little, and Agent K seems just about ready to divulge an apparent secret when something somewhere changes the time stream and eradicates K from existence. Now Agent K is dead, with history having been rewritten and alien forces about to invade Earth due to circumstances that *didn't* happen forty years ago. It's up to J to travel back to 1969 and attempt to 'put right what once went wrong'. But he'll need the help of a much younger Agent K (Josh Brolin) to do it.
Well underneath the surface, the picture is a mediation on just what these extraterrestrial agents sacrifice when they basically delete themselves from existence and put on those black suits. It's something that I feel the films never really touched on, although the late-1990s WB cartoon series did on occasion. The idea of completely cutting yourself off from friends, family, and the general human existence is a potent one, and the cost arguably weighs heavy on these agents as they get older. Although it's somewhat played for laughs, the opening funeral of an older agent elicits a certain tragedy as his coworkers don't seem to have anything to say about him. This passing, as well as the return of old ghosts, puts Agent K in an ever more dour mood than ever, and it's frankly jolting to see Tommy Lee Jones almost on the verge of tears in the opening act. The film is too light to really commit to it hardcore, but there are touches of the whole 'what exactly are we giving up our lives for?' subtext that permeates the best espionage pictures (think Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, Breach, or even Brian DePalma's Mission: Impossible). Highlighting this arbitrariness is the picture's most engaging character, Griffin (Michael Stuhlberg). His curse is the ability to see every possible time line without any ability to control the outcome, and Stuhlberg almost single-handily gives the film's somewhat jokey second act a potency and pathos that elevates the proceedings.
Of course, being a Barry Sonnenfeld comedy, there are indeed a number of solid laughs. To the film's credit, very few of them belong to Josh Brolin. Brolin doesn't portray a young Agent K for laughs or for easy mimicry, but rather as a contrast to the somber and often silent elder agent. He's still straight-laced and all-business, but he's not the bitter shell of a man we know from the prior films (his best joke is one that explicitly deals with how old Brolin is in real life). No the real laughs belong to, among other people, Bill Hader who plays Andy Warhol in an extended cameo that's frankly much funnier than the trailers let on. As in the previous films, the special effects are relatively story-driven, used at either the behest of the narrative or for the sake of comedy. After The Avengers and Battleship, it's borderline subversive to have a mammoth and destructive present day alien invasion occurring entirely in the background.
There are a few action beats, including one brief chase that seems to exist only for marketing purposes, but the film plays as a pure time-travel detective story for most of its running time (for what it's worth, it's a casually violent picture that earns its PG-13). If the film has a real flaw, it is that it overlooks the rather barbaric code of conduct that the Men In Black operate under (basically our agents can torture and arbitrarily execute any alien whenever they want, as long as no humans are injured). I'm going to assume that Sonnenfeld and company weren't intentionally delivering an anti-due process moral but merely brought a 'hard-boiled private eye' sensibility to this story that involves government agents.
Will Smith may be a bit too old for his 'I make this look good!' shtick, but the film plays his age to its favor, with Smith portraying a man who holds onto his youthful attitude because he hasn't developed anything to replace it (he spends his nights playing video games by himself in a bare-bones apartment). Tommy Lee Jones doesn't have a huge amount of screen time, but he makes every second count with a weariness that brings to mind his climactic speech from No Country For Old Men. There are real pathos to the opening and closing reels, and Stuhlberg's fascinating time-watcher holds the fort during the comparatively slight middle act. There is also real tension and suspense in the token action climax, as the sense of foreboding allows us to truly fear for the survival of our heroic leads. And without going into details, the film's finale goes for emotion over FX razzle-dazzle, in a fashion that will make you look at the entire franchise in a new light. It's a jolt right at the end that elevates the film to a slightly higher plane even while completely playing fair with the audience and the franchise's internal logic.
Men In Black 3 isn't a piece of high art, but it is a surprisingly strong and refreshingly small-scale summer movie that puts character relationships over spectacle. It's funny, moving, and exciting without becoming overwhelming. It ranks among Barry Sonnenfeld's best films, not quite up there with Get Shorty or Addams Family Values but at least as solid as the underrated Big Trouble. I don't know whether the massive budget overruns and pricey talent deals make Men In Black 3 a good investment. But it's a surprise, a relief, and a pleasure to report that Men In Black 3 is a good movie.

Customer satisfaction refers to the degree to which purchasers of goods and services are happy with not only the goods and services themselves, but the experience of ordering them, the delivery process, and every other part of the process. A customer satisfaction index (CSI) shows the percentage variation from a standard, usually 100, representing complete satisfaction. There is more than one organization that carries out a CSI, so it is important to note where CSI ratings come from in order to determine their value. Some ratings suppliers are industry-based, some are country-based, and some are international.
A national customer satisfaction index is a balance to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP). While the GDP informs about quantity — the total market value of the services and goods produced in a country in a specific time-frame — the corresponding customer satisfaction index provides a measure of quality for the same services and goods for that time period. An industry CSI helps make comparisons among peers, which could be credit card companies, members of the marine industry, or IT providers, etc.
Industry members who participate in a customer satisfaction index are able to benchmark their performance both against their own goals, against their competitors, and against their past record. The results may also provide access to detailed customer comments. With some indexes, ongoing tracking, rather than a one-shot snapshot, is available.
Others besides the companies that are profiled benefit as well. Investors can spot trends and rank businesses against their peers, while governments gain access to information that can help in economic decisions. Customers may benefit because their voices are heard and customer service may improve in response to the process.
In both the United States and the United Kingdom, customer satisfaction surveys have determined that quality is generally the top desire of customers. The American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI) has determined that in most cases, quality is more important than price. The United Kingdom Customer Satisfaction Index (UKCSI) has found that while quality of a product or service is the top priority, price doesn't even enter into the top ten priorities overall, which, in addition to quality, include treatment as a valued customer, speed, friendliness, how problems and complaints are handled, how queries are handled, competence of staff, how easy it is to do business with the company, whether or not the customer is kept informed, and how helpful the staff is.

From childhood through late adulthood, there are certain times when people need help in addressing problems or issues which are causing significant distress for the individual, couple or family.
We can help you with identifying your problems and assist you in finding the best way to cope with your situation, all in a safe atmosphere of trust and respect.
After you attend your first appointment, your therapist will help design a treatment program that is just right for you. We are trained to provide evaluation, counseling and psychotherapy with children, teens, adults, couples and families. If other services are needed beyond what we provide (e.g., medication, psycho-educational testing, more intensive substance abuse treatment, etc.), we are able to refer to and work in coordination with other appropriate health professionals in the area.
The decision to seek counseling is an important step. Too often, people do not get help because they feel guilt, shame or embarrassment. By choosing counseling, you have made a choice to feel better and to improve your life The FIRST STEP is to call for an initial appointment.
We will be happy to discuss our experience and qualifications, or any other questions you might have at that time.
Individual Counseling is recommended when problems affect an individual and his/her feelings, thoughts and behaviors. People meet one-on-one with the counselor in a safe, confidential and professional atmosphere in which problem area are identified and goals for change are established. Some common problems that people come to individual therapy for include anxiety, depression, anger, phobias, grief, sexual issues and personal growth - But there are also many other reasons people seek individual counseling.
Couples counseling, marriage counseling, and marital therapy all refer to the same basic process. Couples counseling helps with problems existing in the relationship between two people, but can often involve some focus on individual symptoms and problems as well. Your therapist will help you and your partner identify the conflict issues within your relationship, and then decide on the changes needed to feel more satisfied with the relationship.
We also offer Couples Co-Therapy. Each person has their own therapist to work with between couples sessions, and then both therapists meet with the couple together. This approach is often very effective when a couple has been arguing for a long period, or complicated situations such as when an affair has been disclosed.
In many cases, an issue affecting one family member also affects the rest of the family. With family counseling, family members work with the therapist in learning how to get along better as they also resolve conflicts and misunderstandings. Improved ways of communicating and problem-solving can be explored and practiced, and a spirit of cooperation and teamwork is encouraged.
Usually geared toward children – but also appropriate for the developmentally disabled, play therapy uses a variety of activities such as painting, drawing, games, or role-playing to establish communication and rapport with the therapist as well as resolve problems. Play allows the child to express emotions and problems that could be too difficult for a child to put into words or discuss with an adult directly.
In group counseling, people come to discuss their problems together and a trained counselor guides the sessions. Members in the group often share the same problem, but not always. The group session provides a place where people can confide with others who understand their struggles, and can gain strength in knowing that they are not alone with their problems. Members learn how their views of themselves shape the way others see them, along with better ways of thinking and behaving. Group counseling is useful for a variety of problems including but not limited to depression, anxiety, self-esteem, and abuse survivor issues. Check with one of our therapists to see what groups are currently available.

Penataran or Panataran (Indonesian: Candi Penataran) is one of the largest Hindu temple ruins complex in East Java, Indonesia.[1] It is located roughly 12 km northeast of Blitar, with the closest airport being farther away at Malang. Believed to have been constructed between the 12th century to the 15th century, the temple played a significant role in the Majapahit Kingdom, especially under King Hayam Wuruk.[1][2] He considered his favorite sanctuary.[3]:241 Penataran dates from the Kediri era.
Candi Panataran is a Shiva (Siwa) temple. It is notable for including one the largest Indonesian collection of reliefs showing life stories of Hindu god Vishnu in different avatars. In particular, the temple site include the Rama story in the Javanese version of the epic Ramayana, as well Krishna story as depicted Triguna's Krishnayana epic poem.[4][5][3]:158 Comparative studies of reliefs related to Hindu epics at Penataran and Prambanan temple (Yogyakarta) complexes have attracted the attention of archaeologists.[6]
World Heritage status[edit]
This site was added to the UNESCO World Heritage Tentative List on October 19, 1995 in the Cultural category. This temple was identified in Nagarakretagama as Palah temple and reported being visited by King Hayam Wuruk during his royal tour across East Java. The site is being considered to be put on the World Heritage list of sites that have "outstanding universal value" to the world.[7]

It says in John,
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and God was the Word: all things were made by means of him, and without him nothing was made that was made. In him was life, and the life was the light of humankind. He was in the world, and the world was made by means of him. And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw his glory. (John 1:1, 3, 4, 10, 14)
It is clear that the Lord is the one who is meant by "the Word," since it says that the Word was made flesh. Precisely what is meant by "the Word," though, is not yet known and must therefore be stated. The Word in this passage is the divine truth that is in the Lord and from the Lord, so here it is also called the light, which is divine truth, as has been shown earlier in this chapter. Now we need to explain the statement that all things were made and created by means of divine truth.
In heaven, it is divine truth that possesses all power, and apart from it there is no power whatever. All angels are called "powers" because of divine truth, and are powers to the extent that they are recipients or vessels of it. Through it they prevail over the hells and over all who oppose them. A thousand enemies there cannot bear one ray of heavenly light, which is divine truth. Since angels are angels because of their acceptance of divine truth, it follows that all heaven is from this source and no other, since heaven is made up of angels.
People cannot believe that this kind of power is inherent in divine truth if the only concept of truth they have has to do with thought or speech, which have no power in them except to the extent that other people concede it by being obedient. There is an intrinsic power within divine truth, though, power of such nature that by means of it heaven, the world, and everything in them was created.
We can illustrate the fact that this kind of power is inherent in divine truth by two comparisons—by the power of what is true and good in us, and by the power of light and warmth from the sun in our world.
By the power of what is true and good in us: Everything we do, we do out of our discernment and intent. Out of our intent, we act by means of what is good, and out of our discernment by means of what is true. In fact, all the elements of our volition are related to what is good, and all the elements of our discernment are related to what is true. On this basis, then, we set our whole body in motion and a thousand things there rush to do our bidding of their own accord. We can see from this that our whole body is formed for obedience to what is good and true and therefore from what is good and true.
By the power of light and warmth from the sun in our world: Everything that grows in our world—things like trees, shrubs, flowers, grasses, fruits, and seeds—arises only by means of the warmth and light of the sun. So we can see what kind of productive power is inherent in that warmth and light. What about the divine light that is divine truth, then, and the divine warmth that is divine good, the source from which heaven comes into being and consequently the world as well, since as we have shown above, it is through heaven that the world comes into being?
This enables us to determine how to understand the statement that all things were made by means of the Word, and that without him nothing was made that was made, and further that the world was made by means of him, namely that this was accomplished by means of divine truth from the Lord.
This is also why in the book of creation it first mentions light and then the things that arise from light (Genesis 1:3, 4). It is also why everything in all heaven and earth has to do with what is good and true and to their union if it is to be anything at all.
from Heaven and Hell, Section 137

Thanksgiving has come and gone and whose memories aren't filled with turkey, stretchy pants and the entire guest list eating way too much pumpkin pie? With that said, the thoughts of "omg, I ate too much, I need to nap for 3 days" will once again approach us with the Christmas holiday! There is nothing like having the best intentions and then falling a little short of preparation. Here's a few survival tips for getting things done for the holidays. These aren't in any particular order but for me, this list is a sure way to get myself on the right track!
1. Charge the ipads! My kids love their ipads and without them its painful. I load my kids ipads up with educational games like ABC Mouse, PBS kids and the newest app I love, Homer (reading app). We also load them up with lots of holiday music and lots of FREE drawing apps. If you're worried about too much time on the ipads, not to fear, there is a timing limit app for that!
2. Have lots of wine. :) No further instruction needed. Seriously though, when in doubt, bring a bottle of wine to any holiday party. It really is a nice "thank you" gift for any host or hostess. I'm a firm believer that one must bring a gift to any get together you're invited to. I went to the dollar store and bought a cute tea towel and wrapped the bottle of wine with a ribbon and festive tea towel for an instant gift! It was a sure hit too. If they don't drink wine, no worries, you can do this with beer or go the non alcoholic route with a great sparkling cider. You really have a lot of choices for this option.
3. Ladies..... if you're a iphone user, ask Siri for help! Siri can make your lists and she'll make sure you're checking it twice. I have her make all sorts of lists for me and I make sure she sets them on alarms so that my calendar reminds me of what's next on my ever growing busy-bee agenda. Pretty neat if you're always on the go like me and forget everything.
4. Have a plan...... well, sort of? If you're running out of time and need last minute gifts, why not check out my shop? We have lots of fun items that are sure to please and for a limited time, we're offering FREE priority shipping on all online orders. Type FREESHIP during checkout @ www.lanicheboutique.com. We have a little something for everyone on your list.
Last but not least, Have some fun! With the ever crazy season approaching, let's not forget who we are and how fabulous it is to bring joy to those around us during this festive holiday season.
Happy Holidays...from my family to yours!

17: Family
19: And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love. ~ 1 Corinthians 13:13
20: Other things may change us, but we start and end with the family.
22: A family is pieced together with hope and faith. A family is quilted and bound with love and grace.
26: You never thought twice about putting yourself second when it came to your children. We always had new clothes and shoes every school year, and you were wearing the same things from five years ago. You would stay up late taking care of us when we were sick even though you were sick yourself. There are an uncountable amount of nights that you stayed up worrying about us. Nothing ever stood in your way when it came to your children. Through sports, school, and church you never faltered in standing by our side to cheer us on. Your love and dedication meant more than anything to us when we could look into the stands and see you smiling after you had worked all day. There were times when we didn't show appreciation, but it meant more than anything to us to have a mother that loved us so unconditionally. Now that we are all grown up, it is hard to not have you by our side in an instant. It is the memories and lessons you taught us that keep you close at heart always. We know you would drop anything to protect us when hardships and trouble come our way. We would have never grown into such beautiful adults had we not had such an amazing mother. The character and morals you taught us have shaped who we are today. It is our wish that you can continue to grow in your own happiness. Hell and high waters came your way and we want nothing more than to see your beautiful smiling face. Seeing you unhappy breaks our hearts. The woman that gave so much to us deserves joy and hope.

We will love you forever and always, Mom. ~Josh, Sonja, Justin, Mandy, & Caylee | To: Our Amazing Mother
27: Your arms were always open when I needed a hug. Your heart understood when I needed a friend. Your gentle eyes were stern when I needed a lesson. Your strength and love has guided me and given me wings to fly.

Kingfisher Silhouette HD Wallpaper, photo by John Britt
All about Birds says that the Belted Kingfisher is:
A common waterside resident throughout North America, the Belted Kingfisher is often seen hovering before it plunges headfirst into water to catch a fish. It frequently announces its presence by its loud rattling cry.
It breeds along streams, rivers, lakes, and estuaries with banks for nest holes. The breeding distribution of the Belted Kingfisher is limited in some areas by the availability of suitable nesting sites. Human activity, such as road building and digging gravel pits, has created banks where kingfishers can nest and allowed the expansion of the breeding range.

Ross's Goose, photo by jsommer2
A few weeks ago there was a bit of a question as to the duckishness of a sleeping duck I posted, so I spent a lot of time looking at ducks & duck-like birds. One of them showed up in the photo group so without further delay…
The All About Birds entry for Ross's Goose (Chen rossii) says:
A tiny white goose with black wingtips, the Ross's Goose is like a miniature version of the more abundant Snow Goose. It breeds in the central Arctic and winters primarily in central California, but it is becoming more frequent farther east.
Prior to the 1950s the Ross's Goose was confined to well-defined breeding and wintering areas, with few seen as strays. Since that time the species has been expanding eastward, both on the breeding and wintering grounds. The change in breeding distribution has resulted in more contact and subsequent hybridization with the Snow Goose.
The female Ross's Goose does all of the incubation of the eggs. The male stays nearby and guards her the whole time. The female covers the eggs with down when she leaves the nest. The down keeps the eggs warm while she is away and may help hide them from predators.

Cliffs from below, photo by David Clark
David writes that "The Anvil" is a high point where a white pine somehow makes a living growing out of a crack in the rock. On his blog, Cliffs and Ruins he writes:
This is one of my favorite places along the Cliff range: The Lookout. Apparently different people have different lookouts, but this is what I think of as the Cliff Lookout.
It's a bit of a hike (no, you don't have to go straight up the side of the cliffs… but you can if you want), but the view is 100% worth it. You can even see the silhouettes of the Huron Mountains in the distance. The most amazing thing, to me, is that tree — you can see it here. It's a big old pine growing straight up out of the rock, over the edge of the cliffs.
There's nothing quite like the solitude at the top of the lookout. When I snowshoed out to the lookout, there weren't any tracks at all on the trail to the lookout — nor on the trail to the trail! It was one of those feelings which I love when I'm hiking up here — that I'm the first person in years to set foot here and see these sights. It might not be true, but this is still one of my favorite places to go whenever I really need some time alone.

text: Dear users, the Photokina also brought bad news. I visited the Zeiss booth to meet like always Dr. Hubert Nasse. But as I was informed, he passed away a few weeks ago. Suddenly and unexpected in August 2016 at the age of 64. Dr. Hubert Nasse was working at Zeiss and was a globally renowned expert in the field of photography. I met Dr. Nasse many times over the last 14 years to exchange ideas, views and discussing technical questions. Both, in Oberkochen and also at other various events. He was a great supporter and mentor for my websites Contaxinfo.com and Hasselbladinfo.com. Without his input and discussions with him about photography and the technical requirements, I would have never started a photography website. But apart from his expertise, he was also a wonderful person. I will never forget his appearance with greyish hairs but very vivid, intelligent and young looking eyes like he would never become old. So I am very sad to hear that he is no longer among us. He has a special place here and will never be forgotten. My thoughts and sympathy are with his family in this difficult time. I will miss him.

Central City Opera looks ahead to the 2013 season
Things are wrapping up at the Central City Opera this weekend and that means it's time to start looking ahead to next year. The 2013 season is now in order and ready for a close look.
The three-title lineup follows Central City's formula: one opera world standard (for regulars), one piece borrowed from Broadway (always, a sure seller) and something a little more adventurous (to keep the company artistically credible).
The old fave: "The Barber of Seville," by Gioachino Rossini. If you're going to reach for the familiar, here's a good place to aim. Everyone knows how this adventure goes for Figaro and his pals and Rossini's comic work has terrific music as well. Marc Astafan directs. John Baril conducts.
The upscale musical: "Showboat," by Jerome Kern and Oscar Hammerstein. Every time this 1927 show is revived, directors seem to find some new depth. That's because its themes of doomed love and racial ignorance never really go away, they just change with the times. Director Ray Roderick will make his debut with the company, with a conductor to be announced.
The switch-up: "Our Town," by Ned Rorem. It's great to see Central City go for something new — even if this 2006 work does have a familiar enough title that audiences should not be scared away. The good part: few Colorado opera fans have heard this tuned-up take on Thornton Wilder's surreal tale about the town of Grover's Corners, and it's about time they did. Ken Cazan, who put together this season's "Oklahoma!," returns to direct.
Central City offers serious deals for season ticket buyers — serious enough that it's worth taking the plunge if these titles appeal to you. It's just three operas, so the commitment is minimal and you can save 25 percent. If money is an object, the company has a decent, low-priced package that started at just $32 (yes, for all three) this season.
Watch here or the CCO website for on-sale dates.

If you want to think of a different place to eat lunch, go to Nico's at Pier 38 Fishing Village! It's easy because you order and pay at the counter and then sit out on their lovely patio by the water. The atmosphere is relaxed and the breeze fresh. The food is good too! Plenty of indoor seating is available, as well as seating outside in the front. After your meal, stroll along the water admiring the real working boats and the mountain view in the distance.
Uncle's Fish Market and Grill, a more pricey option, is also located here. The fish is very fresh since the Honolulu Fish Auction is right next door.

Poor Vicky's birthday is the day before New Year's Eve so she doesn't usually get a lot of attention. We wanted to make her feel special so we went to Brisas Del Mar. It's on top of a steep hill and you can feel Breezes from the Sea. I had the tuna wrappers and sea bass with ginger.This ice cream sandwich cookie was delicious.

UW Four Advances to Henley Quarterfinals
July 3, 2003
HENLEY, England - The Washington men's four went wire-to-wire for the second straight day, defeating the Henley Rowing Club Thursday during the round of 16 at the prestigious Henley Royal Regatta on the Thames River.
The Britannia Challenge Cup field has been pared to eight boats after starting with 32 crews of fours with coxswains. The competition continues for three more days, culminating in Sunday's championship race.
Washington maintained the lead throughout the one-mile, 550-yard (2,112 meter) course and held off the local Henley crew for a one-seat victory. The Huskies clocked a winning time of 7-minutes, 15-seconds. That was 15 seconds faster than the mark of 7:30 they posted in Wednesday's opening round during their two-boat-length victory over the Agecroft Rowing Club.
Only the winner's finishing time is reported in the official regatta results as the losing mark in each race is not recorded.
The Huskies advance to a quarterfinal-round meeting with the Isis Boat Club, Friday afternoon London time (4:10 a.m. Pacific Time). Isis registered a 1/2-length decision over the Bantam Boat Club in its second-round race. The Washington-Isis victor faces the winner of the matchup between the University of London and the Thames Rowing Club.
Washington's four includes coxswain Chris O'Brien along with Scott Gault, John Taylor, Jeff Jorgensen and Mathew Kopicky. Four of those athletes were members of the Huskies' national runner-up junior varsity eight crew. Jorgensen rowed on UW's national champion varsity four.
The 164th renewal of the regatta that began in 1839 features a unique match-race format with two boats racing side-by-side. The winner advances to the next round while the loser is eliminated. The course is a straight one-mile, 550-yard stretch (2,112 meters) on the Thames River.
The Washington men's varsity eight crew sees its first action Friday in the quarterfinals of the eight-boat Ladies Challenge Plate competition.
The Huskies have a first-round meeting at noon London time (4 a.m. PDT) against a crew made up of rowers from the Nottingham & Union Rowing Club and the London Rowing Club. The winner advances to Saturday's semifinals to meet either the Molesey Boat Club & Imperial College combined entry or the Frankfurter crew from Germany. U.S. collegiate crews Rutgers and Dartmouth meet in the other half of the bracket.
The UW eight won the Pac-10 championship and was the runner-up at the Intercollegiate Rowing Association championships. The crew includes coxswain Ryan Marks along with Ian Sawyer, John Lorton, Marko Petrovic, Brett Newlin, Giuseppe Lanzone, Kyle Larson, Sam Burns and Andy Derrick.
This is the first Henley appearance for the Husky men since 1997 when the varsity eight lost by one foot in the championship race to the Notts County & Oxford Brookes crew that served as the British National lightweight eight.

|This is my keeping cool, not excited face
Anyhooo, Rinda, the lovely lady who set the challenge told us to go to her end of scavenger hunt entry and leave a comment. I really should learn to take in what I am reading because it says quite clearly that she is going to give two prizes. I simply didn't take that as real, I saw it, but ignored it! So when I read the next entry it was a big surprise to see my name as the winner from the group that didn't get all the items.
The most difficult thing was making the choice of which book to claim as my prize - sigh - I am a Libra and while I don't read horoscopes I do seem to have a few Libran characteristics. The most important one being that I have difficulty making decisions - being balanced like the scales you see, I can't choose one side over the other.
I did what I usually do, I asked Mr M to choose. He said "It's your prize, you must choose" Then he added a few things that would help me to make a decision. Like eBook or real book? "You like to feel a book in your hands" he said. "You like to have a book where you can pick it up and take it with you" he said. "You love the smell of new books, especially those with illustrations." he said.
I chose my prize.
Now I have the excitement of waiting for it to arrive. I will tell my granddaughter and she will then ask every day if it is here yet and so I won't have to ask that question.
It is so exciting, winning a prize. My thanks to Rinda for organising the Scavenger Hunt and for giving prizes. Such a bonus! I am so pleased to have won it, and yet there were so many others who should have won. We'll have to do it again next year when I mustn't win a prize but can still join in the fun.

Lovemaking is an integral part of being in love. But if you feel your sexual relationship is getting boring, don't worry. I'm going to help you stay excited and interested longer with some cool techniques. Not just lasting longer, you will also have a more fulfilling experience and relationship.
The Necessity of Foreplay for Women
If you really want to last long, you have to forget the "wham-bam-and -done" approach. Women need a proper stimulation to prepare them mentally and physically for sex. That is what foreplay is supposed to be. It's also important for men and gives them that extra longevity when it comes to ejaculation. It puts your woman in the mood and even lubes up her vagina for easy and pleasurable intercourse. She warms up and opens up, naturally becoming ready to have passionate sex. And there aren't any concrete steps for a perfect foreplay; you just have to experiment to find what works best for everyone involved. You have to take time, put some effort and try to understand the needs of your partner.
Talk to each other to determine what works best for her. Take time to caress her, talk to her, kiss her and arouse her using your five senses. Slowly work your way to her breasts and under the belt taking time to concentrate in each area. The clitoris is the area to aim for, but don't over-stimulate it because it can be painful for your woman. Spend at least 20 to 30 minutes in foreplay and find out the difference yourself! Your tongue is a good tool and you need to use it the right way. Both the slippery underside and rough top of the tongue should be used for greater stimulation. Use varying degrees of pressure and motions when it comes to tease the clitoris. Tease it and suck it a bit and back off, as clitoris responds best to gentle teasing!
You can use some sex positions which give you less sensation and help you have a delayed orgasm. Try out the following! The most common technique to last longer in bed is the 'girl on top'. You lie on your back while she rides you on top. Ask her to put her weights on her elbows placing them on your sides. The penetrations will be shallow with less sensation resulting in a longer duration. Another go-to position is doggy-style. This is often preferred to maximize penetration and vaginal stimulation.
And you could always hire an escort from https://londonxcity/escorts for a threesome to add some real spice to your love life!

Public Relations Intern
About Company
Before we tell you all about us let's take a step back and tell you where and how it all started.
It all started when a few young men, and women, got tired of doing PR the usual commercial way. They wanted to do PR that would change not their fortunes, but those of their clients. PR that would eventually give back to society. PR that would make a difference. It is with these high ideals and a firm belief in their partnerships that they set out to do the seemingly impossible task of doing PR differently.
Blue Lotus is a mythical flower that blooms once in 3000 years. It is said that every time this flower blooms it brings forth a period when things of universal good occur. It is said that the last time this flower bloomed Gautam Buddha attained nirvana. In short this flower stands for everything that is true unerring and good. And since this is exactly the way the wanted to do PR, the small group gave itself the name of Blue Lotus.
Today the Blue Lotus Group has over 110 employees at its 9 offices across the country and handles over 50 renowned clients, including the few it started off with. Yet it still retains the objective it started off with – it still does PR differently, it still works for the fortunes of their clients and yes, it still does its best to give back to society.

Long time coming...
It's been a long time since I've updated the world on my life and my work. There's a reason... WE'RE HOMEOWNERS!
A few months back, we purchased a bit of a fixer home in a wonderful neighborhood with fabulous schools. If the simple act of moving with 3 small children (an no vacation time taken by the husband) weren't enough, the house needs work.
Even before unpacking, I demolished the main upstairs bathroom. And when I say demolished, I mean gutted. Completely gutted. It had to be done... unless we wanted to fall through the floor while sitting on the potty.
From busting out a vintage (nasty textured smelly leaky stained) 6 foot vanity... to 3 inches of tile on a mortar bed... to 2 inches of concrete behind the tile around the pink steel bathtub... to cutting out the rotting subfloor... It was one HUGE job.
The good news? 3 months later, we have a new floor... with new green penny tile... and a new tub! It's deep and wide and I adore it. But there's still so much more to do. Like the walls... and the issue of the toilet sitting in the middle of my kitchen...
And there's everything else that pops up... out of town guests (a definite challenge when you're down a bathroom), school activities (needing new dresses and costumes), holidays, ice storms, landscaping, a new puppy, and work (in a workshop that's still not entirely unpacked or organized).
I'm doing my best... but, wow... we're homeowners now and that's huge. It's been a long time coming... but the projects stack up and time is precious. I envision having a completed bathroom and an unpacked house sometime in 2015.
Wish me luck and knock on some (non-rotted) wood that I'll find balance and enjoy the ride (and more sales to help pay for all the projects would be nice too... wink-wink).

DuPont™ Tyvek® for Header Bags Enables EO Sterilization
When your medical device requires a film-film package or foil pouch, header bags made with DuPont™ Tyvek® provide a solution for enabling ethylene oxide (EO) sterilization.
Some medical devices and procedure kits are packaged in film-film packages or foil pouches because they require a barrier to light, oxygen or moisture. These packaged medical devices and procedure kits cannot be sterilized with EO without the use of a header bag or breather patch made of a porous packaging material such as Tyvek®.
Header bags made with Tyvek® enable EO sterilization of medical devices within film-film packages and foil pouches because Tyvek® allows the moisture and heat from EO sterilization to pass in—and out—of the package.
In addition to enabling EO sterilization, headers made with Tyvek® have superior puncture resistance compared to headers made with medical-grade paper. Header bags made with Tyvek® also offer superior moisture resistance and microbial barrier compared to those made with medical-grade papers.
Tyvek® for Sterile Packaging
DuPont™ Tyvek® medical and pharmaceutical packaging provides trusted durable sterile packaging choices.
DuPont Protection Solutions Announces its presence at Pharmapack
The European Team of Experts of Tyvek® Medical & Pharmaceutical Protection will be present at the exhibition booth at Pharmapack, Europe's dedicated Pharmaceutical Packaging and Drug Delivery event, which is taking place at Paris expo Porte de Versailles - Hall 4, France, 1 & 2 February 2017.
- Sterile packaging's important stake in patient safety
- Guidelines for Printing on Tyvek®
- Tyvek® vs. Medical-Grade Papers
Meeting Regulatory Requirements
DuPont™ Tyvek® medical and pharmaceutical packaging styles comply with the materials portion of ISO 11607-1:2006(R)2010 and meet all the acceptable performance criteria for bio-compatibility and other regulatory requirements.
- Advancing the Science of Protection
- Low Lint Means Reduced Risk
- Sustainability in Healthcare Packaging
- Heat Sealing Guidelines
Tyvek® Retains Sterility after Aging
After terminal sterilization, Tyvek® can maintain the sterility of medical devices for at least five years, enhancing the sustainability of a medical product because it can be stored for long periods with no need to re-sterilize or re-package.
- Medical Packaging Design Essentials
- Tyvek® Resists Punctures

I've rewritten this post twice, each time not feeling what I was writing was clear. My ramblings and jumbled thoughts kept coming out of my head and falling onto this internet 'table' in a pile of messy notes. And then I thought maybe I'd just leave here with a photo and quote, to which I went to the web to find an Elizabeth Lawrence quote—and this one suited what I was attempting to write here.
Gardening is hard work. Hard work—but rewarding. You have to put in the toil and labor, to want the garden and want the effort involved in putting one together. My messy thoughts were attempting to explain my feelings when on the many occassions I would post a photo to Facebook about the building of either the vegetable or flower garden, that somewhere in the midst of the comments of how nice it was looking, there were always a comment from people who I could tell were wistful and wishing they could have a garden themselves.
And you can! You can! It doesn't need to be fancy to start, in fact I'd suggest it not be. Start in containers, in a bit of dirt where landscapers put hideous standarized hedges in. Rip 'em out and put something else in. Read! Read all you can about gardening—in magazines, blogs, forums. Soak in the information and keep on going from there. Reading helps you figure out where to begin, what plants are good for your area, what plants you want to drool over. And after you are done reading—start planting! Get out there and just do it! Trial and error will happen—you will kill plants! Accept it and move on—throwing the dead plant in the compost bin after. Buy another one if you know what went wrong the first time, if not, read about diseases and habitat requirements before trying again. Or give up and admire the plant in another garden instead. Sometimes you have to go that way in gardening, enjoying a plant elsewhere or even just in photos.
But, gardening, anyone can garden. It's like any other hobby, you just have to have the desire to go forward and try it.
So stop being afraid or hesitant or thinking you need everything perfect to garden and start by planting some seeds or a tree (during the right time of year of course!), or even a flat of marigolds from the big box store. We all start somewhere, right?

Parents and students are like doubles partners when it comes to college admissions — both have to work in tandem to ensure a successful career. The best way to describe parents' role in this partnership will be — Interactive & Evolving Collaboration. In three major areas, parents can take the lead, as the students, given the young age, may not be the best —
- Planning in advance: Help your child plan in advance, make a schedule.
- Adhering to deadlines: Help your child to mark the deadlines and make sure they adhere
- Financial matters: Understand the fee structure, scholarship opportunities, loan and other expenses
Universities continually encourage students and parents to begin the groundwork for college as early as 9th grade.
Top Tip: start by 11th grade, if not earlier.
Kicking off early results in ample time to collect essential college application information over multiple years from the teachers, fellow students, online groups, guidance counselors, etc. All those sources are doubtlessly important, but the source that's most vital is you – The Parents. You are someone your children look up to and naturally believe in what you tell them from your experience and vast firsthand knowledge. The timeless quote from the greatest superhero series – Spiderman 'With great power comes great responsibility,' couldn't be more spot-on. As the guiding light of your teenaged children, you must ensure that you have done your homework.
To begin with, see to it that your child is involved (and preferably excels) in wide-ranging activities as the universities are looking for — Versatile Brilliance. The Fabulous Four elements that top colleges look for —
- Academic Accomplishments: Parents will have to make a schedule, as one would for dietary requirements, to make certain that the student's time is allocated towards all the essential elements. They can oversee that she/he has consistently high scores in school and the all-important SAT/TOEFL, or other entrance exams.
- Extracurricular (Sports, MUNs, etc.): In the extracurricular sphere, parents should avoid asking their child to do something they don't like, instead, let them get involved in activities they like naturally. The colleges want to know about the student's affinities and abilities. Community participation is another factor.
- Community Participation: Parents can guide them towards various volunteering work, such as teaching underprivileged kids, rural welfare programs, raising funds for the elderly, upskilling the disabled so they can gain full-time employment, etc.
- Uniqueness or natural talent in doing something: For instance, a student who faced personal, social or other obstacles while growing up but still showcased versatile brilliance will stand out amongst others with the similar profile. It is just one example of distinctiveness. Every child is unique, help your child discover & sharpen theirs. Help them explore themselves and build their profile for university admissions.
Parents must collect tons of up-to-date information about colleges & have it all organized in an easy-to-follow-format. In fact, a spreadsheet with deadlines & targets to adhere to will keep the students right on track for glory.
Now, the Financial aspect, as not all the parents will be able to afford the acute tuition fee that foreign education. It is a hurdle that can be easily taken care of, with little effort. That's where research and planning ahead pay off. Find out all the universities that provide scholarships and start working towards preparing the student to be eligible for those endowments. Though scholarships in the US/UK are no guarantee, parents have the option to send their child to fabulous European countries such as Germany, France, etc., which offer abundant 100% grants. Besides, bank loans & working part-time while studying abroad are limited options.
Some Don'ts for Parents:
- Do not write their college admission essays
- Do not choose their university/courses/program, let them suggest what they like the most
- Do not fill out their applications, only review and help them with edits.
Let them write their essays and choose the field that they enjoy the most. All parents must manage the line and not be too overbearing. Instead of making their decisions, help them find out what they want. Once they know their ambitions, they are already half-way towards fulfilling them.

Destiny got a new trailer today, teasing the new armor, weapons, and ornaments coming in the game's next live event, Age of Triumph. All this gear will get ample reveal time on the next Age of Triumph stream this Wednesday, but fans can catch some glimpses of the new gear which includes some from the refreshed raids.
Destiny's developer, Bungie, has said the new armor and ornaments in Age of Triumph could be the very best that has ever come to the game, and from this quick teaser, that could be right.
The trailer starts with a Hunter in the Tower, clad in armor that is no doubt from the new 390 Light Vault of Glass raid. The Vex-inspired gear has been spotted before in other promotional imagery for Destiny's final live event, which includes ornaments that create a polygonal Vex flourish on the Hunter's cape, and gives the class a robotic leg.
The Warlock's Vault of Glass armor can also be spotted in the trailer, with the helmet ornament giving the Warlock Gorgon-like tentacles. It appears that Warlocks will also be getting a set from the new King's Fall raid that will make them appear as a Hive Wizard. Add to that a green luminescent set for all classes that come from the new version of Crota's End, and it looks like there will be a solid amount of looks for fans to chase, alongside completing Age of Triumph's giant record book.
In addition to the armor and ornaments, the trailer also shows off the Vex Mythoclast and the elemental primary raid weapons set to return in this live event. Exotic weapon Ornaments that can be seen in the trailer include ones for Dragon's Breath, SUROS Regime, and the Vex Mythoclast.
In addition to showing off this new gear, this Wednesday's third and last of Age of Triumph's reveal stream will also discuss the sandbox and weapon balance changes coming with the event. That will include discussing what powerful elemental primaries coming back means for the game, in addition to follow-up tweaks from February's sandbox update. Some of those changes mentioned are to the Skorri artifact, sidearms, and No Land Beyond.
That stream will take place Wednesday, March 22 at 10 a.m. Pacific, with the actual Age of Triumph live event debuting next Tuesday, March 28.
Destiny: Rise of Iron is available now on PS4 and Xbox One.

Besides maybe castles, weaponry seems like the one thing in the Game of Thrones world that sticks around the longest. Long after your favorite characters are brutally butchered (or much less likely, die of old age), their descendants will wield their swords and daggers. It helps that this world's technology doesn't seem to progress much at all.
The show takes great pains to show the long-term relationship the people of Westeros have with their armaments. Above you can see Ned Stark wielding his trusty longsword (not to be mistaken for Ice, the greatsword that got melted down) in both the first season and in a flashback to his young self, the latter of which which aired years afterwards.
That might go unnoticed by most casual viewers, but Game of Thrones' meticulous attention to detail simultaneously enriches and grounds the huge world it's been building over seven seasons. Most of the time, these callbacks and throughlines are never explicitly mentioned. Like how Craster keeps the same axe from season to season.
On a certain level you might be able to attribute this to a well-organized wardrobe department that keeps everyone's outfits and accessories in line from year to year. But as we'll see, there's a little more to it than just proper planning.
More recently we've seen the Catspaw Dagger make a reappearance in season seven. You know, the same curvy blade that Littlefinger offered to Bran in Winterfell. It last had significance back in the first season, when an assassin used it to try to finish off Bran after his fall. Ever since Sam came across the dagger in a book during his maester training, it's become a sort of Chekov's Shiv -- you just know it's gonna be used to murder someone soon, especially since it's now strapped to Arya's waist.
But weapons in the Game of Thrones universe are often vital to the identity and continued existence of houses, great and small, and the show has taken great pains to reflect that. Take House Umber, for instance. At the end of season one, Greatjon Umber celebrated the crowning of Robb Stark as King in the North while holding his house's unique sword:
Greatjon dies offscreen somewhere between season three and season six, and his son Smalljon (yes, this show is silly sometimes) takes over the mantle of Lord Umber. After the Smalljon betrays House Stark and sides with Ramsay Bolton, he can be seen charging the field with that same sword. Note the loops on either side of the hilt.
Now, if you remember, Smalljon died when Tormund tore out his throat with his teeth and then stabbed him in the face (yes, this show is badass sometimes) towards the end of season six. The following season, we see the surviving Umber heir, Ned Umber, repledge loyalty to Jon Snow and House Stark. When little Ned does bend the knee, you can see he's using that same sword.
You get the feeling that this sword was with the Umbers long before the events of the show, and ice zombies permitting, will stay in the house for generations to come. That kind of careful continuity not only makes the universe more credible and believable, but at the same time reinforces the importance of legacy and family duty, themes that are core to the show and the books.
Speaking of family legacy...
We don't see much of Lyanna Stark in Game of Thrones, but she might be one of the most important people in all of Westeros. Besides belonging to an important house, Lyanna's infamous runaway romance with Rhaegar Targaryen is more or less what started the events that lead to several wars, including the one raging in season seven. Well, the White Walkers would probably still be making cold blue baby slaves, but other than that.
So many people talk about Lyanna with a kind of awe and hushed reverence. We see in the first season that Robert Baratheon is still holding a candle for her, long after her death and his marriage to Cersei Lannister. While the late king was visiting Westeros in the premiere episode of the series, he paid tribute to Lyanna in the crypts under Winterfell. Placing a feather in the hand of Lyanna's statue, Robert honors her memory and the love that could never be.
After that pilot episode, we don't see Lyanna's statue again until season five, when Sansa returns to Winterfell. Sure enough, Sansa approaches her aunt's grave only to find a dusty old feather.
Though it was notably out of place, Sansa probably had no idea of its true significance. At the same time, she was down in the crypts for the same reason as Robert: To rekindle a comfortable connection to the past during a confusing time.
That being said, moms everywhere will agree that you should never touch strange feathers you see on the ground -- you never know what kind of diseases they might be carrying.
When it comes down to it, most of Game of Thrones is a series of gravely serious conversations held by people in silly costumes while standing in stuffy rooms. The show has gotten pretty damn good at that, in part because the characters have a way of remarking or reflecting on one another without realizing it.
Case in point: Above we see Jon Snow attempting to talk some sense into Mance Rayder, who was at the time facing death for refusing to bend the knee to Stannis Baratheon.
It's a stinging indictment, one made a bit more painful when Daenerys unknowingly bats those same words back at Jon Snow when it's his turn to bend the knee to Khaleesi.
Just when you thought Jon Snow knew something for once.
A lot of people suddenly took notice of Cersei's handmaiden for the first time with the third episode of season seven -- after all, her suddenly appearing at Cersei's door, mimicking her pixie cut and tight black high-necked militaristic-dress was pretty hard to miss (also hard to miss: her casual dismissal of Cersei twincestin' it up). But the more impressive thing about the handmaiden (Bernadette, in case you'd forgotten) is how long she's actually been on the show -- five years.
Sara Dylan has portrayed Bernadette ever since Season 2's "A Man Without Honor" - and even in her brief appearances since has created an interesting character. This is someone completely devouted to Cersei, to the degree that she stood by her throughout all of Cersei's trials and tribulations and even adopted her new signature look out of admiration. In a show that has had multiple actors play the Mountain and like 30 different dudes play Daario, it's strangely satisfying to see a small role carry through for so long.
Seeing Hot Pie again in season seven, even for a brief moment, was a real delight. It brought you back to a time when Arya was just masquerading as a boy across the Westerosi countryside. His exchanges with other characters gave a welcome bit of levity to otherwise dour proceedings. There was that time (pictured above) when Hot Pie argued with Gendry about whether he saw a battle (it was just a bar room brawl). If two knights are fighting, it's a battle, and if someone is wearing armor, they're a knight, so ipso facto -- wait, where was he going with this?
Flash forward five seasons later, and Hot Pie reasons that his encounter with an armored woman counts as crossing paths with a knight (it was Brienne).
Thankfully, Hot Pie is sticking with baking instead of going for his maester chains.
One of the smallest, funniest subplots in Game of Thrones centers on Podrick Payne and his apparently magnificent lovemaking abilities. Back in the third season, Tyrion rewarded Pod for his bravery at the Battle of the Blackwater with a four-way romp with some of King's Landing's uh, ladies of the evening.
Tyrion makes sure that Pod knows he handpicked these ladies for their exceptional talents. Kayla in particular is so flexible her bones might as well be made of gummi worms.
The subplot resolves itself after it is revealed that ye olde escorts refused to take payment from Podrick, supposedly due to his unsurpassed prowess in the bedroom. You could speculate that Tyrion paid the sex workers ahead of time, instructing them not to take the "dummy money" and make Pod feel great about himself while simultaneously building a mystique and magnetism around King's Landing that will make him more attractive in the future. But really it's more fun to think of Podrick as a humble sexual dynamo.
Long after this escapade faded from memory, Pod has an odd reminder at Joffrey's wedding in season four.
Yep, that's Kayla, once again played by professional contortionist Pixie Le Knot. Even if you forgot her, by the look of his extended double-take, Pod sure didn't.
Ned Stark has the distinction of being one of the most admirable and honorable people on Game of Thrones, so it's no wonder so many characters take his advice to heart. Granted, it was that naive faith in law and justice that ended up separating Ned's head from his shoulders, but there's still some value in his crusty Northern wisdom. In the first season, Benjen Stark recalls that his brother claimed that sentences don't really start until afte the word "but."
This adage was evidently passed along to Jon Snow at some point as well, who mentions the advice with slightly different phrasing in season seven.
Jon may have been inspired by his sister, who had repurposed her father's words in Winterfell in the previous episode:
Ned is speaking to Arya in this scene in the first season, but you can tell this is the sort of thing he made sure to get across to all his kids. Dads have a tendency to repeat themselves, after all.
It does make you wonder whether Ned picked up these phrases from his own father. In a one of season six's flashback episodes, we see a young Ned constructively threaten baby Benjen during sparring practice -- just like Jon Snow had taught Olly a season before.
Ned Stark has been dead for the vast majority of Game of Thrones, but moments like these offer tangible proof that his family will always feel his influence. Hopefully none of the Stark kids go so far as to follow Ned's lead and tell Cersei every details about their plans to defeat her.
Up until the moment that Euron's teleporting speedboats ruined everything, Tyrion's plan to take Casterly Rock was pretty brilliant. Though the Unsullied are a formidable force on their own, Tyrion's secret passage blew the once-impregnable fortress wide open. As he explains over a battle montage, Tyrion had a tunnel installed back when his father demanded that he design the sewers (though at the time he was smuggling women, not armed men into the compound). Yet again, Tyrion turned something that was supposed to be a detriment to his advantage.
It does seem a little too convienent, looking back. Need your character to triumph over impossible odds? Have them recount the tale of the time they installed a convienent plot loophole that has definitely always been there.
Except in this case, Game of Thrones already laid the groundwork, so to speak. Here's Tyrion back in the second season, during his infamous "God of Tits and Wine" conversation with Varys.
This is something that was mentioned in the books as well, so it seems like part of an intentionally-crafted long game. Or in George R. R. Martin's case, a long, long looong game.
This was pointed out in the making-of featurette after a recent episode, but it's still a neat callback that says a lot about where Arya is headed as a character. In the first season, Ned reassures Arya by telling her that she'll soon become the lady of a house whose job is mostly to hang out in a castle and bear (male) children for her husband -- because apparently Ned doesn't know his daughter at all. Arya insists the kind of life he just laid out isn't one she's looking forward to. "That's not me."
When Arya finally reunites with Nymeria, she urges her now fully-grown direwolf to come along with her to Winterfell. But much like her former master, Nymeria has been living in the wild for some time -- she doesn't have it in her to go home and be a domesticated house doggie. When Arya says "That's not you," it's because she realizes that her old pup is now untamable. But in a way, she's also saying it to herself.
Not every continuity nod has to be some deep character reveal. A good example of a quick-and-dirty one-two callback came during Jon Snow's storyline in season four. Specifically in the fifth episode that year, Jon crossed swords with Karl Tanner, the mutinous former member of the Night's Watch. During their fight, Karl manages to temporarily gain the upper hand by straight-up spitting in Jon's face.
Of course, the good guys eventually triumph and everyone sort of forgot Karl existed -- except for Jon. He remembered how close he came to death and how a man fighting dishonorably nearly got the best of him. So four episodes later, when Jon was down and out, he used Karl's dirty trick to save his own life.
Now if only Ygritte could have spit in Olly's face before he loosed that arrow, we'd be a lot happier.
While visiting the crypts of Winterfell, Jon Snow (now the Main Dude at Winterfell and King in the North) is joined by Westeros' official Creepy Uncle mascot, Petyr "Littlefinger" Baelish. After a few untoward comments about Catelyn Stark and Jon's sister Sansa, Snow grabs Littlefinger by the neck and slams him up against the wall...a move Littlefinger is all too familiar with, since that was Ned Stark's go-to move back in season 1 (well, except when Ned did it to him, he didn't actually deserve it - Littlefinger was trying to tell Ned that his wife Catelyn was in King's Landing and Ned thought Littlefinger was messing with him).
Littlefinger, I've got some advice for you - there is no good time to tell a dude you want to bang his sister (who you sold to a sadistic rapist, like, a couple months ago), but ESPECIALLY not when he's visiting a bunch of family graves.
We were so concerned with the long-awaited meeting of Jon Snow and Daenerys Stormborn this episode, we forgot about the TRUE character pairing we should have been demanding for years: Lady Olenna Tyrell and Sandor Clegane. The two are both sharp-tongued, suffer-no-fools types who have seen their fair share of tragedy and are not ones to mince words. And they both know people who go around naming their weapons are, uh, a very naughty word.
As usual, Olenna Tyrell says it better than we ever could.

When volunteers arrived at KSE in 1997 the building had been derelict for a number of years after the Wilkinson's bobbin factory business closed. The platform wells had been concreted in and the valley gutter that ran from the train shed roof to the main buildings was severely damaged. The rooms of the main building were all suffering from the effects of water ingress and following repair of the valley gutter work started on each room in turn. The concrete in the Darlington platform had to be dug out and the remaining bobbin factory equipment removed before track could be laid into the building. Temporary doors were manufactured for the building (it would be 2010 before they were replaced by permanent bespoke doors).
The rooms in the station building and their state of restoration are listed below
- Motive Power Office & Porter's Office (fully restored - now the Shop)
- Foreman's Office (not restored - no public access)
- Booking Office (fully restored - now the Education Room)
- Booking Hall (fully restored - includes children's play area)
- General Waiting Room (fully restored -now the small exhibits museum)
- Station Master's Office (fully restored)
- Ladies Waiting Room (partially restored - staff room no public access)
- Toilets (fully operational but awaiting further restoration and upgrade)
