"I hope I don't get sent back to Shoreham, I am very comfortable and happy here".
Arthur Goodchild, 21st Jan 1915, writing from billet at Rose Hill Terrace, Worthing. (Quote credit 2)
As the winter of 1914 drew in the tents of Shoreham Camp were washed out by dreadful rain. The locals of towns like Shoreham, Worthing and Brighton opened their doors to 'billet', provide accommodation, for the soldiers.
Despite early confusion over what to provide for the soldiers by December 1914 there was an agreed billeting allowance reported in the Worthing Gazette of 2s 6d per soldier per day to cover accommodation and rations. Worthing took in around 5000 troops including the Goodchild brothers, Arthur and Edmund. The billeting allowance was a great support to local households although the local press reported that it was still 10d less than Portslade and Lewes.
'We are very comfortable here, three of us, we have a nice bedroom to ourselves and two beds and we can make ourselves quite at home. We have our meals with the tenants of the house and they try and make us as comfortable as possible . . . We went on church parade this morning at nine 15 and we go on at nine tomorrow. We have got a cupboard for the rifles and chest of drawers for our clothes and there is plenty of room for them. It is quite different to Shoreham camp, we are just as comfortable as if at home…'
Edmund Goodchild, 19th Dec 1914, writing from billets at 17 Crescent Road Brighton. (Quote credit 2)
Public spaces were set aside for the men to drill and train. At Southwick the local green was used by the 7th Northamptonshire Regiment.

When it became clear the men would soon return to their new 'hutment' Camp in spring 1915 the press expressed local regret at the end to a 'pleasing and profitable association'.
'On behalf of all ranks of the [Seventy-second Infantry] Brigade the General expresses his sincere thanks for the [. . .] generous and sympathetic manner in which Officers and Men billeted in the town were treated by the householders, "which will" he adds, "make the four months' stay in the town a very pleasant memory."'
'General Mitford's Thanks', Worthing Gazette, 14th April 1915. (Quote credit 3)

সাঁচ:Dead link
Usage[সম্পাদনা কৰক]
Use {{Dead link}} when you find a dead link to a website within a paragraph or a reference citation. Doing so will place a note by the URL and add the article to one of the Category:Articles with dead external links categories.
Append this template directly after the link or template, leaving the original link intact. Not doing so will prevent detection from automated tools. If the citation contains multiple URLs (e.g. chapterurl and url) in a template, and only one is broken, you can use
<!-- hidden text --> to explain which one is broken.
If the article uses clickable footnotes, then this tag should be placed just before the
</ref> that contains the dead link. The notice will then correctly appear in the reference section (instead of in the body of the text, which is not recommended).
Avoid using this template to identify dead WP:External links that are not used as references for article content. Instead, dead external links should normally be removed. See the guideline for External links.
- Common form (with current date)
{{Dead link|date=April 2020}}
Optional parameters[সম্পাদনা কৰক]
- url
- Provides a history of the linked page via Wayback Machine. Set only if history actually exists, as otherwise it is misleading to users and editors.
- date
- Month name followed by year, for use by the categorization system. Use

but on Cain and his offering he did not look with favor. So Cain was very angry, and his face was downcast.
Then the LORD said to Cain, "Why are you angry? Why is your face downcast?
If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must master it."
Now Cain said to his brother Abel, "Let's go out to the field." And while they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him.
But Sarah saw that the son whom Hagar the Egyptian had borne to Abraham was mocking,
and she said to Abraham, "Get rid of that slave woman and her son, for that slave woman's son will never share in the inheritance with my son Isaac."
Esau held a grudge against Jacob because of the blessing his father had given him. He said to himself, "The days of mourning for my father are near; then I will kill my brother Jacob."
On the third day Laban was told that Jacob had fled.
Taking his relatives with him, he pursued Jacob for seven days and caught up with him in the hill country of Gilead.
Then God came to Laban the Aramean in a dream at night and said to him, "Be careful not to say anything to Jacob, either good or bad."
Jacob had pitched his tent in the hill country of Gilead when Laban overtook him, and Laban and his relatives camped there too.
Then Laban said to Jacob, "What have you done? You've deceived me, and you've carried off my daughters like captives in war.
Why did you run off secretly and deceive me? Why didn't you tell me, so I could send you away with joy and singing to the music of tambourines and harps?
You didn't even let me kiss my grandchildren and my daughters good-by. You have done a foolish thing.
I have the power to harm you; but last night the God of your father said to me, 'Be careful not to say anything to Jacob, either good or bad.'
Now Israel loved Joseph more than any of his other sons, because he had been born to him in his old age; and he made a richly ornamented robe for him.
When his brothers saw that their father loved him more than any of them, they hated him and could not speak a kind word to him.
Joseph had a dream, and when he told it to his brothers, they hated him all the more.
His brothers were jealous of him, but his father kept the matter in mind. Joseph Sold by His Brothers
But they saw him in the distance, and before he reached them, they plotted to kill him.
Korah son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, and certain Reubenites,Dathan and Abiram, sons of Eliab, and On son of Peleth,became insolent
and rose up against Moses. With them were 250 Israelite men, well-known community leaders who had been appointed members of the council.
They came as a group to oppose Moses and Aaron and said to them, "You have gone too far! The whole community is holy, every one of them, and the LORD is with them. Why then do you set yourselves above the LORD's assembly?"
When Moses heard this, he fell facedown.
Then he said to Korah and all his followers: "In the morning the LORD will show who belongs to him and who is holy, and he will have that person come near him. The man he chooses he will cause to come near him.
When the Philistines asked, "Who did this?" they were told, "Samson, the Timnite's son-in-law, because his wife was given to his friend." So the Philistines went up and burned her and her father to death.
Samson said to them, "Since you've acted like this, I won't stop until I get my revenge on you."
The people of Gaza were told, "Samson is here!" So they surrounded the place and lay in wait for him all night at the city gate. They made no move during the night, saying, "At dawn we'll kill him."
But Samson lay there only until the middle of the night. Then he got up and took hold of the doors of the city gate, together with the two posts, and tore them loose, bar and all. He lifted them to his shoulders and carried them to the top of the hill that faces Hebron.
Now the rulers of the Philistines assembled to offer a great sacrifice to Dagon their god and to celebrate, saying, "Our god has delivered Samson, our enemy, into our hands."
When the people saw him, they praised their god, saying, "Our god has delivered our enemy into our hands, the one who laid waste our land and multiplied our slain."
While they were in high spirits, they shouted, "Bring out Samson to entertain us." So they called Samson out of the prison, and he performed for them. When they stood him among the pillars,
Samson said to the servant who held his hand, "Put me where I can feel the pillars that support the temple, so that I may lean against them."
Now the temple was crowded with men and women; all the rulers of the Philistines were there, and on the roof were about three thousand men and women watching Samson perform.
Then Samson prayed to the LORD, "O Sovereign LORD, remember me. O God, please strengthen me just once more, and let me with one blow get revenge on the Philistines for my two eyes."
Then Samson reached toward the two central pillars on which the temple stood. Bracing himself against them, his right hand on the one and his left hand on the other,
Samson said, "Let me die with the Philistines!" Then he pushed with all his might, and down came the temple on the rulers and all the people in it. Thus he killed many more when he died than while he lived.
Saul was very angry; this refrain galled him. "They have credited David with tens of thousands," he thought, "but me with only thousands. What more can he get but the kingdom?"
And from that time on Saul kept a jealous eye on David.
The next day an evil spirit from God came forcefully upon Saul. He was prophesying in his house, while David was playing the harp, as he usually did. Saul had a spear in his hand
and he hurled it, saying to himself, "I'll pin David to the wall." But David eluded him twice.
Saul was afraid of David, because the LORD was with David but had left Saul.
1 Samuel
When Saul sent the men to capture David, Michal said, "He is ill."
Then Saul sent the men back to see David and told them, "Bring him up to me in his bed so that I may kill him."
But when the men entered, there was the idol in the bed, and at the head was some goats' hair.
Saul said to Michal, "Why did you deceive me like this and send my enemy away so that he escaped?" Michal told him, "He said to me, 'Let me get away. Why should I kill you?' "
When David had fled and made his escape, he went to Samuel at Ramah and told him all that Saul had done to him. Then he and Samuel went to Naioth and stayed there.
1 Samuel
Saul's anger flared up at Jonathan and he said to him, "You son of a perverse and rebellious woman! Don't I know that you have sided with the son of Jesse to your own shame and to the shame of the mother who bore you?
As long as the son of Jesse lives on this earth, neither you nor your kingdom will be established. Now send and bring him to me, for he must die!"
"Why should he be put to death? What has he done?" Jonathan asked his father.
1 Samuel
But Saul hurled his spear at him to kill him. Then Jonathan knew that his father intended to kill David.
1 Samuel
David's men turned around and went back. When they arrived, they reported every word.
David said to his men, "Put on your swords!" So they put on their swords, and David put on his. About four hundred men went up with David, while two hundred stayed with the supplies.
One of the servants told Nabal's wife Abigail: "David sent messengers from the desert to give our master his greetings, but he hurled insults at them.
1 Samuel
In the morning David wrote a letter to Joab and sent it with Uriah.
In it he wrote, "Put Uriah in the front line where the fighting is fiercest. Then withdraw from him so he will be struck down and die."
So while Joab had the city under siege, he put Uriah at a place where he knew the strongest defenders were.
When the men of the city came out and fought against Joab, some of the men in David's army fell; moreover, Uriah the Hittite died.
2 Samuel
Absalom never said a word to Amnon, either good or bad; he hated Amnon because he had disgraced his sister Tamar. Absalom Kills Amnon
2 Samuel
Absalom ordered his men, "Listen! When Amnon is in high spirits from drinking wine and I say to you, 'Strike Amnon down,' then kill him. Don't be afraid. Have not I given you this order? Be strong and brave."
2 Samuel
Now David had been told, "Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom." So David prayed, "O LORD, turn Ahithophel's counsel into foolishness."
2 Samuel
As King David approached Bahurim, a man from the same clan as Saul's family came out from there. His name was Shimei son of Gera, and he cursed as he came out.
He pelted David and all the king's officials with stones, though all the troops and the special guard were on David's right and left.
As he cursed, Shimei said, "Get out, get out, you man of blood, you scoundrel!
2 Samuel
Now a troublemaker named Sheba son of Bicri, a Benjamite, happened to be there. He sounded the trumpet and shouted, "We have no share in David, no part in Jesse's son! Every man to his tent, O Israel!"
So all the men of Israel deserted David to follow Sheba son of Bicri. But the men of Judah stayed by their king all the way from the Jordan to Jerusalem.
2 Samuel
Then King Solomon swore by the LORD : "May God deal with me, be it ever so severely, if Adonijah does not pay with his life for this request!
And now, as surely as the LORD lives,he who has established me securely on the throne of my father David and has founded a dynasty for me as he promised,Adonijah shall be put to death today!"
So King Solomon gave orders to Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and he struck down Adonijah and he died.
1 Kings
When he saw Elijah, he said to him, "Is that you, you troubler of Israel?"
"I have not made trouble for Israel," Elijah replied. "But you and your father's family have. You have abandoned the LORD's commands and have followed the Baals.
1 Kings
Then Zedekiah son of Kenaanah went up and slapped Micaiah in the face. "Which way did the spirit from the LORD go when he went from me to speak to you?" he asked.
Micaiah replied, "You will find out on the day you go to hide in an inner room."
The king of Israel then ordered, "Take Micaiah and send him back to Amon the ruler of the city and to Joash the king's son
and say, 'This is what the king says: Put this fellow in prison and give him nothing but bread and water until I return safely.' "
Micaiah declared, "If you ever return safely, the LORD has not spoken through me." Then he added, "Mark my words, all you people!" Ahab Killed at Ramoth Gilead
So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah went up to Ramoth Gilead.
1 Kings
Then Jehu went to Jezreel. When Jezebel heard about it, she painted her eyes, arranged her hair and looked out of a window.
As Jehu entered the gate, she asked, "Have you come in peace, Zimri, you murderer of your master?"
He looked up at the window and called out, "Who is on my side? Who?" Two or three eunuchs looked down at him.
"Throw her down!" Jehu said. So they threw her down, and some of her blood spattered the wall and the horses as they trampled her underfoot.
Jehu went in and ate and drank. "Take care of that cursed woman," he said, "and bury her, for she was a king's daughter."
2 Kings
After these events, King Xerxes honored Haman son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, elevating him and giving him a seat of honor higher than that of all the other nobles.
All the royal officials at the king's gate knelt down and paid honor to Haman, for the king had commanded this concerning him. But Mordecai would not kneel down or pay him honor.
Then the royal officials at the king's gate asked Mordecai, "Why do you disobey the king's command?"
Day after day they spoke to him but he refused to comply. Therefore they told Haman about it to see whether Mordecai's behavior would be tolerated, for he had told them he was a Jew.
When Haman saw that Mordecai would not kneel down or pay him honor, he was enraged.
Yet having learned who Mordecai's people were, he scorned the idea of killing only Mordecai. Instead Haman looked for a way to destroy all Mordecai's people, the Jews, throughout the whole kingdom of Xerxes.
There are six things the LORD hates, seven that are detestable to him:
haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood,
a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil,
a false witness who pours out lies and a man who stirs up dissension among brothers. Warning Against Adultery
An offended brother is more unyielding than a fortified city, and disputes are like the barred gates of a citadel.
Instead, the king commanded Jerahmeel, a son of the king, Seraiah son of Azriel and Shelemiah son of Abdeel to arrest Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet. But the LORD had hidden them.
After the king burned the scroll containing the words that Baruch had written at Jeremiah's dictation, the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:
"Take another scroll and write on it all the words that were on the first scroll, which Jehoiakim king of Judah burned up.
Jeremiah started to leave the city to go to the territory of Benjamin to get his share of the property among the people there.
But when he reached the Benjamin Gate, the captain of the guard, whose name was Irijah son of Shelemiah, the son of Hananiah, arrested him and said, "You are deserting to the Babylonians!"
"That's not true!" Jeremiah said. "I am not deserting to the Babylonians." But Irijah would not listen to him; instead, he arrested Jeremiah and brought him to the officials.
They were angry with Jeremiah and had him beaten and imprisoned in the house of Jonathan the secretary, which they had made into a prison.
Jeremiah was put into a vaulted cell in a dungeon, where he remained a long time.
Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor.
"All this I will give you," he said, "if you will bow down and worship me."
Jesus said to him, "Away from me, Satan! For it is written: 'Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.' "
From that time on Jesus began to explain to his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things at the hands of the elders, chief priests and teachers of the law, and that he must be killed and on the third day be raised to life.
Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him. "Never, Lord!" he said. "This shall never happen to you!"
Jesus turned and said to Peter, "Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me; you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men."
While he was still speaking a crowd came up, and the man who was called Judas, one of the Twelve, was leading them. He approached Jesus to kiss him,
but Jesus asked him, "Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?"
Then the whole assembly rose and led him off to Pilate.
And they began to accuse him, saying, "We have found this man subverting our nation. He opposes payment of taxes to Caesar and claims to be Christ, a king."
So Pilate asked Jesus, "Are you the king of the Jews?" "Yes, it is as you say," Jesus replied.
Then Pilate announced to the chief priests and the crowd, "I find no basis for a charge against this man."
But they insisted, "He stirs up the people all over Judea by his teaching. He started in Galilee and has come all the way here."
I wrote to the church, but Diotrephes, who loves to be first, will have nothing to do with us.
So if I come, I will call attention to what he is doing, gossiping maliciously about us. Not satisfied with that, he refuses to welcome the brothers. He also stops those who want to do so and puts them out of the church.
3 John

I keep thinking I should be able to work in RGB easily with the right management setting, but I haven't figured it out yet. I haven't used Scribus to go to a commercial, offset printer yet, so it's all been fine when I turn colour management off.

I have spent the last few weeks in such stress over three things: my husband's surprise party, my assignment and my half marathon on November the 3rd.
Luckily, things have a way of working out and I now see that year two of my studies in early childhood education aren't going to be quite as cruisy (not that it was cruisy) as year one.
The party for Mr S has been in the making for one whole year. Yes, I'm crazy. But it was so worth it! I will have to save that story for another blog post though. The party has now been and gone and to be honest, I'm breathing a sigh of relief.
The assignment I was working on was the hardest we have been giving yet. Of course it didn't help that I was also planning the party of the year, but I still stick by it that we weren't given enough time OR information to get it done. I finally got the assignment done and again, it was a huge sigh of relief. I can now have my life back!
The half marathon training wasn't getting off to the best start when I realised that taking a two month break from all exercise really does leave you at square one but I did start training with about 14 weeks until race day. On week 10 I got sick with the flu and was down for two entire weeks, then the busyness of the party and assignment got to me so there hasn't been any time to train! Luckily someone out there really wants to run the Auckland Half Marathon so they bought my ticket off me! Another sigh of relief!
Now it's (hopefully) smooth sailing. Speaking of sailing, here's hoping some of my luck brushes off to Team New Zealand right now!
I'm back to my old baking self and can't wait to get back in the kitchen. Did you know I didn't even get to make myself a birthday in all that busyness?! Shocking (for me anyway). Will have to rectify that as soon as possible!
Here's a recipe I concocted a while back to share with my uni friends, they're orange flavoured rice kirspie treats with crushed up Jaffas inside, coated in milk chocolate. Delish!
Jaffa Rice Krispie Treats
45g Butter
285g White Marshmallows (not flavoured ones)
2t Orange Zest
180g Jaffas
6 C Rice Bubbles
Approx. 100g Milk Chocolate
- Line a large rectangular tin or casserole dish with baking paper.
- Pour rice bubbles into a large bowl and set aside.
- Crush Jaffas (this was harder than it looked, we used a mortar and pestle…and by we I mean my husband). Set the crushed Jaffas aside.
- Heat butter on a low until melted.
- Add marshmallows and stir until they are just melted.
- Add the orange zest and stir quickly.
- Working quickly, pour melted marshmallows over the rice bubbles and add the crushed Jaffas.
- Stir thoroughly, making sure to get all the rice bubbles coated in the mixture.
- Pour mixture out into the prepared tin and press down with the back of a spoon.
- Melt the chocolate in the microwave in short bursts and spread over the top of the rice krispie treats. If you would like a thicker layer or chocolate on top you may want to use a whole block, or approx. 200g.
- Refrigerate the slice until set then slice into small squares.

It will be a year tomorrow - it was a Sunday morning and I'd been sleeping on the couch, keeping her house in my sight if I awoke. and I knew when I did wake that morning it was over. I could see lights on and her son-in-law pacing the dining room. It was about 5 and I knew and I can't remember if I got up or if I went back to sleep, but I waited until I saw Lyndi drive up, or maybe she called, I am so unclear, but I got up and I got dressed and I said goodbye to her, to Mary, though she was already gone and it mattered not.
Here, a year later, I will tell you that I am angry with her, mad at her for no funeral, mad that she donated her body to science, angry that the memorial service didn't take place until April, and I hope she is listening. I have grieved before, I have buried my father, was by his side when he died, I am not new to this process, but this has been a hard year, and that lack of ritual holds much of the blame. To myself I call it The Year of Not Reading, the first time in my life books have not been friends to which I could turn, only one or two new ones started and finished, tons of new ones stacked and waiting, a few pages read, then the books put aside, as, one by one, I found nothing there. I painted and then stopped, and I began to write. It has been a selfish year, a year of self absorption, of looking backward to where I was and how I got there and how I got here, and I found time for others' words only in small doses, but those doses were solace. The blogging world is daily full of paragraphs and tales by strangers-become-friends, and y'all will never know how much a pretty sentence lightened my heart, how it affected my day to read of a peach eaten in a kitchen with sunlight streaming through the window, how images of trees and dogs and this and that made me smile and tear up. You will never know how much I missed you when I began to write more and more, leaving painting temporarily behind, learning to use my camera as my canvas, letting go of trying too hard, time itself difficult to come by. A very selfish year indeed. I bow to you with Namaste hands for still being here.
But a year it has been. A year too quickly gone, too many changes outside my windows, not enough inside. I miss her still, miss her friendship, miss the ease of our conversations and our silences together, and now, having told her of my anger, perhaps I can read again. Maybe not. Who knows? Perhaps that will only come when Maggie has also gone. In the meantime I will continue to find favorite passages in books already read and re-read those.
" I have learned that if you must leave a place that you have lived in and loved and where all your yesterdays are buried deep -- leave it in any way except a slow way, leave it the fastest way you can. Never turn back and never believe that an hour you remember is a better hour because it is dead. Passed years seem safe ones, vanquished ones, while the future lives in a cloud, formidable from a distance. The cloud clears as you enter it. I have learned this, but like everyone, I learned it late." ~ Beryl Markham / West with the Night
The cloud clears as you enter it.

Brandon Banks puts excitement back in the return game
The Washington Redskins hoped to find a spark in the return game and after the first preseason game, 5-foot-6 receiver Brandon Banks appeared as though he might be the answer.
The Kansas State product broke off a 77-yard touchdown return against the Buffalo Bills in the Redskins preseason opener, but since has hurt his chances for a spot by fumbling. Banks fumbled a return last weekend against the New York Jets, and on Thursday night again provided inconsistent results.
The undrafted rookie free agent had a 40-yard return on the game's opening kickoff that showing his elusiveness. He was able to reverse direction and scamper to the left sideline to pick up yards.
But on his first punt return of the contest, Banks fumbled the kick as he backpedaled to catch the ball, and though he recovered it, the drop did not bode well for the undersized receiver who is hoping to make the roster based mostly on what he provides in the return game.
In all, Banks has fumbled three times, losing one.
Special teams coach Danny Smith has emphasized throughout the preseason that decisions would not be made based on a single return and that whoever wins the job will have to show he can do it consistently. Banks has had his highlight moments, but his penchant for fumbling could make him a risk not worth taking.

Next: Cardinals beat Redskins, 20-10
Austin is on the team, Banks MAYBE to the PS.

I like him and his explosive playmaking ability, but we've had a lot of experience with fumbled punts. Not sure I can take much more of it. We may have to pass on him this season.
That being said, Terrence Austin has a spot on the roster. Kinda like I was sure Marcus Mason had one, though. :(

That INT was on DT, he stopped his route. I'd be shocked if he was cut but his football IQ would be considered retarded.

If Banks has something between his ears and can learn quickly at PR, I say keep him on the 53 as the 6th WR.

I liked the TD. The first fumble was understandable. The other 3, not so much. The one tonight was especially atrocious - he basically tossed it into the air untouched.
I'd cut him.
Dude has been playing with a football for how long? And still doing this? Not worth the risk.
Austin can play some receiver. Keep him.

I think you keep him for 2 reasons: one he's young and can be coached. Two, if you drop him another team will sign him before we get a chance to put him on the practice squad.

Diesel, I guess you and I will agree to disagree on this one. As I saw it, Thomas ran the crossing route, stop where he was suppose to, turn towards the QB looking for the pass. Now, Beck might have saw something that Thomas didn't see while running his route, that made him throw the ball to the spot that he did. And, in my opinion, even if Thomas had of kept running. There was no way he could have caught that pass. It was at least 8-10 yards out in front of him.

IMO d Thomas would be the better punt returner Banks can work the nerves out better on KO. Ever since Mike Nelms I have always prferred a bigger return man (with good balance) cause you seldom have space to field a punt and you are shaking a takle before you really get a chance to look up field.

Still think this kid is an upgrade from Randle el, but i think he's practice squad bound.
Posted by: numonik21 | September 3, 2010 8:44 AM | Report abuse
Banks' punt muff was almost understandable; Banks had to backpeddle almost 20 yards to get it, and it seemed to rattle him. Theissman said that Banks was not in the correct position and didn't realize the leg of NFL punters. But Banks was almost where he should be, around the WASH 35: the line of scrimmage was the AZ 20, that ball was punted from the AZ 10 and traveled 70 yards on the fly to the WASH 18 before coming down. That was some punt.

I was actually rooting for the young fella Banks last night, but I'm thinking Shanahan is going to decide that he may not be worth the risk this season and try to put him on the practice squad. Make no mistake, he is the most dangerous returner on this team, but his ball security is just too suspect on returns and in the passing game, for that matter. He dropped several passes last night that were really a matter of concentration, while conversely, Austin showed a level of consistency while flashing playmaking ability as well.
In the end, Austin would look to be a safer, more steady bet in the return/backup WR slot. But hopefully Banks will get a shot, his talent could be explosive.

The Las Vegas Review Journal, the largest paper in Nevada, in its endorsement of Mitt Romney for President minces no words:
U.S. Ambassador to Libya Chris Stevens and three other Americans died in a well-planned military assault on their diplomatic mission in Benghazi seven weeks ago, the anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. So why are details surfacing, piecemeal, only now?
The Obama administration sat by doing nothing for seven hours that night, ignoring calls to dispatch help from our bases in Italy, less than two hours away. It has spent the past seven weeks stretching the story out, engaging in misdirection and deception involving supposed indigenous outrage over an obscure anti-Muslim video, confident that with the aid of a docile press corps this infamous climax to four years of misguided foreign policy can be swept under the rug, at least until after Tuesday's election.
Charles Woods, father of former Navy SEAL and Henderson resident Tyrone Woods, 41, says his son died slumped over his machine gun after he and fellow ex-SEAL Glen Doherty – not the two locals who were the only bodyguards Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and the Obama administration would authorize – held off the enemy for seven hours.
Go here to read the blistering rest. A favorite cant phrase of the Left is "speaking truth to power". This is a fine, and overdo, example of what our incompetent Commander-in-Chief has needed to hear for a very long time.

It's hard to believe that there's a cost effective Porsche racing series - but this successful championship really is!
This weekend (20th/21st October) sees the the final round of the LOGSON GROUP PORSCHE CHAMPIONSHIP at historic Donington Park circuit, and we are expecting an entry in excess of 30 cars for the grand finale at this triple header meeting!
As if that wasn't enough to get excited about, we also have Championship honours in two of the three classes of the Logson Group Porsche Championship still to be resolved!
It's 'Congratulations' firstly to Steve Potts who managed to clinch the Boxster Production Class Championship from ex-924 Champion Steve Brown at the last round at Croft. Both are now looking to 'upgrade' to the full fat Boxster class next year.
But in the Race Spec Boxster class, 4 drivers head into the last round with a chance of the Championship. David Bearman currently in 4th place with 276 points has had a fantastic season, but in reality would be a long shot for overall victory. So it will likely fall to Richard Sykes (3rd with 292 points) and Gerry Taylor (2nd with 297 points) to take the fight to title favourite Rick Styrin, currently on 323 points. Taking dropped scores into account, a worst case scenario of just two 7th place finishes from the three races at Donington would see Styrin crowned a worthy Champion!
It's as close, if not closer between the top 3 Porsche 924 drivers fighting for Class honours. Alastair Kirkham (301 points) has lead the Championship from the very first round at Oulton Park, but Sean Siddal (currently 2nd on 288 points) and Simon Hawksley (3rd on 283 points) have started to close in dramatically over the last few rounds. However, with neither Siddal, nor impressive rookie Hawksley, having any dropped scores to bring into play, you'd have to look towards experienced 924 campaigner Kirkham to finally wrap up the title he has long yearned for.
And with drivers in all classes looking to settle their own personal battles throughout the field, it's all to play for during what should be an epic triple header!
We're also delighted to welcome back former 924 pilots John Broadley and Hugh Peart for an end of season on track blow out, and it will also be the first time we see both of the Sharpe brothers (Will and Hen) on track, after Will's impressive Boxster debut at Croft.
As this is the last race of the season, on behalf of all the drivers and race mechanics, we would like to offer our heartfelt thanks (and in no particular order) to the following:
The weekend looks set to be a real corker! Come and meet us, talk to the drivers and see what a great Championship this is!
Saturday 20th October – Qualifying @ 11.05, Race 1 @ 15.55
Sunday 21st October – Race 2 @ 12.10, Race 3 @ 16.20

Championship Co-Ordinator
It's hard to believe that there's a cost effective Porsche racing series - but this successful championship really is!

An all time favorite at our house is split pea soup with grill cheese sandwiches. It brings back memories of childhood for us. Women's Bean Project, Sarah's Spicy Split Pea Soup Mix is good enough all by itself, but add a couple ham shanks and stew in a slow cooker and you'll be reliving the days when mom wanted something good and filling but didn't have the time for a big meal.
1 package of Women's Bean Project , Sarah's Spicy Split Pea Soup
2 ham shanks
In a six quart crock pot, mix in dry soup mix with included seasoning packet and both ham shanks. Cover all ingredients with water (half water half chicken broth for additional flavor). Simmer on high four to six hours.
Serve with a molten grill cheese and you'll be the hero for the night.

How to Make Paneer (Cottage Cheese)
May 8, 2009 | Desserts, Recipes In Urdu - English | 2 Comments ||
Cottage cheese is a loosely packed cow's milk cheese distinguished by its slightly bland taste and the whey which is left in with the cheese curds. The cheese is designed to be eaten fresh, and is highly perishable. There are a number of uses for cottage cheese, ranging from a dish in and of itself to a substitute for ricotta in dishes like lasagna. Most grocers carry cottage cheese, and it is also often available directly through dairies.
Paneer (Cottage Cheese)
1 Litre Full Fat Milk (Preferably the UHT milk as it gives better results)
200 ml of Yogurt or Butter Milk
2 Tablespoons of Lime Juice
2 Tablespoons of White Vinegar
Note that you only need one of these items. As they are needed to curdle the milk.
- Take a large heavy bottomed pan.
- Pour all the milk in it and bring it to a boil over medium heat.
- Stir occasionally to avoid the milk sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- Once the milk boils over reduce the heat.
- Quickly add yogurt (or vinegar or the lime juice whatever your preference).
- The milk will start to curdle and you will see the lumps of curds separated from the yellow water like substance.
- If this is not the case then add more yogurt ( or vinegar or the lime juice whatever you have used in step 5).
- Take another big pan and sieve the mixture using a big sieve or a colander).
- The water liquid will collect in the pan at the bottom. Keep it aside. (You can preserve this liquid to add to your curries or even cook rice in it.
- The thick mass will collect in the colander or the sieve.
- Take a muslin cloth and put this thick mass in it and hold all sides of the muslin cloth and twist the cloth to squeeze the thick mass.
- You will see the water oozing out of the muslin cloth.
- We need to press this hard to make it into a thick paneer. You can take a big heave pan and fill it water and put it on top of the muslin cloth which is holding the cheese (the thick mass).
- Leave it for an hour or so and transfer the cheese into refrigerator.
- The cheese which you get in the shops is normally thicker than what you make at home as the commercial ones has corn starch in it.
- The cheese which you make at home will be sweeter and bit soft and supple.
- This paneer can be used to cook paneer dishes like Matar Paneer, Shahi Paneer, Paneer Kofta, Malai Kofta or many of the desserts.

Botanicals Mandarin & Chamomile Facial Polish
Within the natural beauty world, Botanicals have made quite a name for themselves over the past decade with their award-winning natural and organic skincare products. Since I tried some small samples over a year ago, I've been through a couple of their hydrating toners and have kept a few of their other products patiently sat on my wish list! One of my favourite products from the sample set I tried previously was their Mandarin & Chamomile Facial Polish*, so I was over the moon to receive a full sized jar a few weeks ago!
Botanicals have recently had a re-brand and I absolutely love the new packaging design! This facial polish is essentially an exfoliating cleanser suited for all skin types, but it's particularly effective on normal, combination and sensitive skin. As is the case with most balm products, it's very concentrated so a little goes a long way. To use, you simply scoop a small amount of product from the glass jar and massage into the skin in circular motions for a few minutes before removing with a warm face cloth.
This is by far the most gentle exfoliator I've ever used! You really don't feel like you're scrubbing your face at all as the organic oatmeal and crushed rosehip kernel are so finely ground. Even though it's so gentle, it's still incredibly effective at buffing away dead skin cells and smoothing out the skin. I like to use this facial polish a couple of times a week as each time it leaves my often lacklustre skin looking much brighter and feeling so much softer.
I honestly can't sing the praises of this product highly enough! The ingredients used are also fantastic; 100% natural and 87% organic (certified by the Soil Association). Although the price point is quite high at £18.95 for a 55g jar, you really are getting high quality, and seeing as a little goes a long way I think the cost balances out over time (6 months shelf life once opened). It's most definitely a product and brand I highly recommend to anyone looking for gentle skincare, especially those with sensitive skin!
To find out more about Botanicals, you can check out their full product range at botanicals.co.uk.
Have you tried any products from Botanicals before?

Oh, this looks lush! I'm after a good facial scrub as I'm using one at the moment that is just too harsh and rubbish to apply. Must take a closer too at Botanicals xReplyDelete
I love their Rose and Camellia face oil. The new packaging is so pretty too xReplyDelete
Botanicals is a nice brand which I have seen grow over the years. I do like the new labels it does make the products pop. Sadly, my citrus allergy won't allow me to give this a try which is frustrating as I would like to find a new exfoliatorReplyDelete
Looking really nice....But I am not too much of a fan of removing an exfoliant with a face cloth...almost seems like a bit "too much" for the skin. xReplyDelete
Sounds amazing and the packaging is so cute! xxReplyDelete
It sounds like a good brand! I haven't tried any of their products yet but I will keep them in mind for next time when I need something new.ReplyDelete
Thank you for stopping by and leaving a comment! If you have a question I'll try my best reply as soon as possible. You can also tweet me @NatuRiaBeauty for a quicker response :)

The closest most people get to understanding the singular vision and unique method of Michael Bay's filmmaking is to simply watch his finished products. Unfortunately, so much is lost in translation between the empty frame at the beginning of production and the overloaded insanity Bay packs into each and every scene by the movie's end. While I was lucky enough to see Bay's process in action while on set of his recent blockbuster Transformers: Age of Extinction, now you can get a front-row seat thanks to our exclusive clip. This behind-the-scenes video, which celebrates the film's release on Blu-ray/Digital, reveals a glimpse of Bay visualizing an epic scene while translating his vision to his cast and crew. Hit the jump to check it out, and for more on the upcoming Transformers: Age of Extinction Blu-ray/Digital release.
Take a look at our exclusive clip from the Transformers: Age of Extinction Blu-ray below:

Most online offenders weren't known to police
A huge police investigation, led by the National Crime Agency, has led to the arrest of almost 700 child abuse image offenders, and the protection of 100s of children.
Operation Notarise was set up 9 months ago to respond to the threat of online abuse and child sexual exploitation in the UK. Since its launch, the NCA and police forces have collaborated to uncover hundreds of offenders unknown to the police.
Jon Brown, NSPCC lead on tackling sexual abuse, said:
"This excellent police work has uncovered a dark underbelly of child abuse crime that, frighteningly, only reveals a part of the picture. The operation clearly shows the vast scale of the problem and the serious risk posed to children by offenders within all elements of society.
"The number of offenders identified in positions of trust – health workers, teachers or in those in caring professions – is deeply disturbing. And equally worrying is the fact that nearly all of those caught were not known to police.
"There is no doubt law enforcement agencies have made major progress in tackling this type of offence, which is ruining the lives of untold numbers of children. But there is still a long way to go and we can only prevent more victims falling prey to sex offenders by remaining committed to tackling this appalling crime and by showing children how to help protect themselves."

Paper No. 31-8
Presentation Time: 3:50 PM
Participating in G-Camp has greatly improved my teaching. Having never taken a geology course in college, I felt somewhat unprepared to fully explain the more abstract and complicated geologic process to my students. I now have the knowledge and hands on experience that better allows me to bring geology into my classroom. Not only has G-Camp made it so much easier to explain concepts to my 7th graders, but I now have rock and sediment samples my kids can actually touch and feel. These samples allow them to experience the world outside their home town. They are better able to grasp concepts like the rock cycle, weathering, erosion, and deposition. Recently I shared samples from the K-T Boundary while discussing catastrophic events and impact events. I have also been able incorporate samples collected during G-Camp into existing labs. Students are better able to discern the differences between rocks and sediment and understand the processes that caused their formation because they are able to closely examine actual samples. During G-Camp we were also able observe glacial valleys, we saw evidence of volcanic activity, studied cave and fossil formation, explored a mine, and examined the role geology plays in natural resources. All of these experiences have been brought into my classroom through photographs, videos, and hands –on lab activities. G-Camp lived up to all that I hoped for. It provided me with immense background knowledge and has allowed me to share my geologic knowledge, understanding, and experience with my students.
