There's no real good reason why I have a parallel blog to Zombie Logic. Oh, wait a minute, yes there is. I didn't think Jenny and people I knew would ever see this blog, and although I didn't intend to use it to express thoughts or events I didn't want her to see, it just made it easier to write about certain things that didn't seem appropriate for Zombie Logic, where I almost never write about my actual thoughts, feelings, or daily occurances. Even now I'm only writing because I haven't logged an entry in over a month and I don't want the search engines to forget about me.
I spent the winter becoming increasingly more paranoid about my health. It began in September, around the anniversary of my heart surgery, and started with anxiety over having a stroke or internal bleeding, and that soon led to panic attacks. Going to bed convinced it was a distinct possibility I would die during the night. Arms and legs going numb. It all just built upon itself until I was a wreck and contacted my physician asking for anti-anxiety medication, which he prescribed. But even after this I had an incident where my feet turned purple. This turned out to be Reynaud's Syndrome. I was was relieved it was not a blood clot or more severe blockage or anneurysm.
Still I was experiencing numbness in my hands, arms, feet, legs, and on occasion face and neck. I soon became convinced I was developing MS. Weeks passed and the symptoms persisted, so I asked for a referral to a neurologist. After a short office visit he ordered a blood panel but told me he didn't think I had MS. I instantly felt better. Not entirely better, but over the next few weeks many of my symptoms lessened. Only my right hand persisted in being numb. Eventually I considered the possibility that spending too many hours on the computer might have led me to contract carpal tunnel syndrome, so I started using my left hand two weeks ago, and I'm starting to feel much better.
My neurologist called and said my bloodwork was normal, despite having a pretty common vitamin D deficiency. I have been taking 10,000 IU of vitamin D a day, trying to get some sun, laying off repetitive tasks with my right hand, and just in general not thinking about death. I've had a good six weeks.
Why am I telling you?
I'm not, really. I'm telling myself. After two post-midnight cups of tea and what promises to be an exhausting weekend of art shows and a garage sale, I'm just trying to appreciate every moment when I feel good. I know many people have it so much worse, and I'm grateful for what I have.
I guess I should say a little something more to get to the magical 500 word count. After five years of careful crafting and nurturing, Google seems to have lost favor with my Zombie Logic Blog. I have faith eventually they'll realize I'm doing all original material and art, but for now I'm apparently not of any interest to the cyber Universe. Here's a recent piece I'm ok with.

citsalp liked a post in a topic: Rollercoaster of emotions, up one minute - down the next
I don't think I've played Tekken since Tekken Tag Tournament. I used to love that franchise though, I'd play it for hours with friends. I was like expert level with Lei and his different fighting styles. I just stopped playing them after that... for no reason really, guess I just lost interest in fighting games. I was kinda excited about the Tekken x Street Fighter crossover using the 3D Tekken engine. I know Capcom released the SF x Tekken crossover years ago. The Namco one has been delayed for like a decade. Seem to remember it resurfacing recently with news that it wouldn't be coming out anytime soon. I haven't bought a fighting game in a long time (except for Smash Bros) but I'd probably buy that game.
Spliff liked a post in a topic: Julio Does Not Need More Practice.
- Today
I have maybe about 20 games I have started playing and then quit. No idea when I will get around to finishing them. And there are new games I want to get too. I think the next game I'm picking up is Fire Emblem on the Switch. Then Marvel Ultimate Alliance comes out soon after that I think. Wonder if the FF7 remake will be any good. Square Enix has been making some good games again so I'm kinda letting my hopes get up for it.
Carter replied to Jpowers's topic in Anything but FootballI just don't put much value into a video production playing on a theme of "change my mind" when it is entirely scripted by the host, who uses inflammatory setups like asking when is it ok to murder a baby as he puts printed materials onto the table. Like... that's not trying to have a dialog, it's just making propaganda for his grift. The only people who won't see that are people who regularly watch his stuff, already completely agree with his position and enjoy seeing some pro choice rando stumble through the segment and get mad at him. I certainly appreciate when people can carry on a conversation and respectfully disagree. I just don't really see how that's what he's going for in that video. He has an extreme stance on abortion to begin with anyway.
Falconsin2012 replied to Falconsin2012's topic in Talk About the FalconsThis isn't a Julio thread. It's about the overall merits of OTA's. Some here are saying they have no value to the team as a whole
gazoo replied to Tim Mazetti's topic in Talk About the FalconsWith the bigger, more powerful, more talented, more explosive, more mass OL and Blocking TE additions, our offense added another dimension. We now have the ability to control the LOS on offense in any game situation. We have seasoned, capable, offensive minds running the offense and working with all this talent now as opposed to a bright college coach that at times looked brilliant and at times looked like he was in over his head. Inconsistency was the result. We will still be quick strike and big play, but we now can give our defense a break on the bench if it needs a breather with some ball control. We can now shove the ball down the throat of a defense in short yardage and goalline. We have a big bruising RB now. How can anyone forget 4th and 2 at goalline failure against Eagles in 2017 playoffs? We are a more versatile team with a better OL. Ryan won't be getting pounded on as much. No one is going to push us around anymore.
gazoo replied to gazoo's topic in Talk About the FalconsI feel better going into this year than I did last year specifically due to coaching.
Sn4tteRBoxXeR replied to Jpowers's topic in Anything but Footballlet's cut the fat here The point of this video is not to change that lady's mind It's to change the minds of the YOUTUBE VIEWERS
kiwifalcon replied to gazoo's topic in Talk About the FalconsSaid it all off season it's not on the field where the Falcons will make the biggest gains it's off.If these coaches can make the correct decisions he'll yes the Falcons have the talent no doubt in my mind. Coaches have to get there **** together and come to the party.
kiwifalcon replied to Tim Mazetti's topic in Talk About the FalconsRun pass %s mean nothing to me what I want us to do is be aggressive with one or the other and don't stop being aggressive.Absolutely beat teams to death with whatever is working that day.
THEHEADCOACH replied to birdz4i's topic in Talk About the FalconsHe didn't.
UnrealfalcoN replied to Falconsin2012's topic in Talk About the FalconsIt says right in the article you posted "There's so many positive things that could come out of it in terms of development of young players, helping to really make sure these guys are learning the game and getting them ready for their opportunity," This is great for most players. But it doesn't help much when you're too 3 in your position. You KNOW Julio is working on himself SOMEWHERE
athell replied to Falconsin2012's topic in Talk About the Falcons
rings639 replied to Tim Mazetti's topic in Talk About the FalconsBalance isn't as simple as 50/50 run vs pass, it's about keeping the defense off balance. Mike Leech talked about this a lot about even the difference of a 0-10 yard pass and a 15-25 yard pass and how the coverage shifts and how the linebackers need to adjust. You can be a 60/40 pass/run team and still be balanced, if the passing attack you have is unpredictable. In 2016 we were 58% pass, but I don't think anyone would say we weren't balanced, it's because it was unpredictable, and more importantly, it worked. In 2017 we were 56% pass but felt less balanced because Sark's first year the play calling seemed much more predictable. Last year was 65% pass and it wasn't by choice, teams knew we couldn't run the ball if we wanted to.
JD dirtybird21 replied to Falconsin2012's topic in Talk About the FalconsWe have OTA's because they determine the chemistry that a WR has with his QB. They determine if the players know the playbook or not. They determine that the rookies have successful careers or not. Julio is really being an arrogant moron. If he were at OTA's, the falcons would be a lock to win the next 3 Super Bowls. Minimum
rings639 replied to Tim Mazetti's topic in Talk About the FalconsI don't want more runs than passes, only Seattle did that last year in the entire league, but I do think somewhere in the 55-60% pass sounds much better than the 65.25% we ran last year, which was third highest behind Green Bay and Pittsburgh.
dmite replied to Falconsfan567's topic in Talk About The Atlanta BravesI enjoyed the Giants feed Thursday.
Flip Flop replied to Jpowers's topic in Anything but FootballThe dialogue doesn't have to have to end in someone deciding to change sides. I think that both sides of the debate are fat with people who misunderstand and misrepresent the opposing view. Issues like abortion and gun control are extremely contentious and sometimes it is hard to attribute the best intentions in your opponent. IMO, respectful disagreement is imperative. Otherwise the logical conclusion is eventually violence.
athell replied to Falconsin2012's topic in Talk About the FalconsLol the insistance of 2012 while cherry picking articles from the net, which also contradict his argument, is almost admirable. In the NFL, the age old cliche is follow the money. Once players start getting paid for OTAs, I will think about saying it provides any value to veterans or any kind of import. If OTAs were so important, the players would be paid to be there. They aren't. They aren't even paid the pittance they make in per diem during training camp. We can't follow the money because there is no money...oh wait...except for the franchises as their guys running around in shells and nothing else, while going against air or coaches, get to wear that fancy sponsor patch on their jersey that the sponsor paid so much for. Players no money. Franchises money. Hrmmmmm...I wonder why we have OTAs...and more importantly why it's becoming more and more commonplace to miss... And don't give me **** about coaches. These dudes work 20 hour days. They would rather spend time in the office watching tape than being with their own families. They don't sleep. They are literally obsessed. If they had their way, there would be no offseason. Maybe coaches aren't the best moral or practical gauge here...
Ezekiel 25:17 replied to falcon1fan's topic in Talk About the FalconsWell... At this point, he would have to deal with her husband who is about the same size as him and likes guns!
lostone replied to Jpowers's topic in Anything but FootballThis is a very Texas headline and Darwin reward nominees
duckhoa replied to vel's topic in Talk About the FalconsMy bad....I thought you were saying that OTAs were more important than 10 sacs. Thinking about Vic, Takk, Jarret, and Hageman out there on the line has got me excited. I hope they all feast this season. Wish I could post some Vic highlights to boost the morale around here.....lol.
FalconFan13 replied to benxiong's topic in Talk About the FalconsSo before everyone trips out that didn't read why he put us 6th he actually only did it because of Winston and Newton. He called Winston one of the worst starters in the league and says he doesn't really trust Cam to be healthy and draftnig grier in round 3 was smart and the right move and telling. He said he 100% loved Ryan as a QB and loved us taking 2 Lineman to protect him nothing at all said bad about Ryan. Also said he knows Brees will be Brees and do really well as always. So Ryan and Brees he loves and it;s the other 2 QB's who made us 6th.
fibonaccisquared replied to Carter's topic in College Sports ForumFwiw he looks to be the fastest guy on the field and this is 6A... He doesn't have impressive track times (mid 11s 100M), so probably not going to set a blazing 40 time, but his playing speed is impressive.

Whilst driving a 32 tonne truck along the back lanes of Hampshire, a pheasant met it's end when it flew into the front of my lorry. I would have been delivering a load of cow cake at the time to one of the farms in the area. I recall scribbling the words down in the lorry cab, probably whilst blowing the cake into a farmer's bulk bin. I use DADGAD with capo on third fret to play this song. Soundcloud link is here.
Bonny Bonny Bird
Oh you bird, you bonny bonny bird, it causes me to grieve.
I didn't mean to bring you down, or you from life relieve,
But there's no way I can express, these feelings of remorse.
This way of life can seem unkind, as nature takes her course.
Oh you bird, you bonny bonny bird, if I could make amends,
But there's no way except to say, with sorrow my heart bends,
And you make me stop in my tracks to pause and to reflect.
How sad the man that will not give one such as you, respect.
Oh you bird, you bonny bonny bird, I've often heard you call,
Staking claim on your domain and standing proud and tall.
In field and wood these eyes beheld your glory in their sight,
As darkness falls at eventide and by dawn's early light.
Oh you bird, you bonny bonny bird, you have good thoughts inspired.
The only sadness is that thoughts like these, your death required,
But rest in peace you'll never be forgotten while I live.
I'd give you back the life I took if life were mine to give.

Asus announced a new Android phone at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona today, the Fonepad.
It has a 7-inch display, which is the same size as popular tablets like the Nexus 7 and Kindle Fire HD.
It's bizarre. It's confusing. And you'd probably look pretty odd holding this thing up to you face to make calls.
But it exists.
There's no word on a launch date or pricing for the U.S. In fact, it seems like the Fonepad may only launch overseas.
By the way, this isn't the only absurdly large phone announced at MWC this week. Some international models of Samsung's 8-inch Galaxy Note 8.0 tablet will be able to make calls too. Crazy.

Fear No More The Heat O' Th' Sun - Nor The Furious Winters' Rages
Cymbeline was written by William Shakespeare (c. 1609) and belongs to he, not me.
Rating: Most likely R, although some may argue it PG-13.
~~*~~ For my author's note please see the bottom of this post. ~~*~~
Fear No More the Heat O' Th' Sun
II. Nor the Furious Winters' Rages
The Vase shattered against the stone wall of the room, its fine porcelain reduced to shards and dust. It was of Elvish make and bore the intricate artwork of Elvish hands- a gift to Gondor from the High Elves of Rivendell. Elven beauty broken by such a simple act.
Aragorn regretted throwing the gift from his beloved's homeland the moment his uncontrollable rage had passed. Yet still his blood ran hot. Heat radiated from his face. How dare this happen. How dare anyone do this to his friend, his brother... and to him. He wished he had the shadow of a being before him right now. Death was too good for the filth. He should have no reprieve from the knowledge of what he'd single-handedly destroyed.
His comrade, his blood brother, his family- a greater part of him than he had ever before realized was now slipping through his fingers, soon to become but a distant pleasant memory of the golden days of myth. Such a beautiful and noble creature made to bow low and pass form this world because of one sinister sneer-bearer.
Such waste.
Aragorn could feel his anger boiling up once more- this time he released it in a scream of agony as he unconsciously fell to his knees- a king in terrible grief.
Humble guard and loyal warrior, a dear friend of his was at the door. After a moment he locked eyes with the hesitant man and blue met brown. Aragorn waited for him to speak. The warrior shifted his weight uneasily. "Is there not something I can help you with, Milord?"
His king showed no signs of having heard him.
Oh yes, Aragorn thought. There is much that you could do for me. Bring me this... this... the split second of mental hesitation Aragorn filled with a hundred words. Monster. Horror. Freakish fiend. Spawn of Sauron. Yet no name could properly match nor describe the ill the stranger had caused. He had not only wronged his victim and loved ones but deprived the world of one who truly knew how to live; knowledge that was quickly slipping from the consciousness of the people even as Elessar ruled.
Aragorn gave him a sideways look before slowly turning his full attention to the bearded man. The ignorant guard lived blissfully unaware of the cause of shadow that had fallen and was only concerned for his obviously ailing king. Aragorn blinked slowly, his comely face and his wise eyes relaxing. His words made his own body suddenly feel the cold of the stone room after night had fallen.
"The world is about to mourn."

Being Grateful in an Ungrateful World
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus
Giving Thanks should be a Lifestyle not an Once a Year Occasion
Genesis 50:20 You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives.
Suffering Provides the Greatest Opportunity to Demonstrate The Validity of Christianity.
2 Chronicles 20:21-22 Jehoshaphat appointed men to sing to the
LORD, saying: "Give thanks to the LORD, for His love endures forever." 22) As they began to sing and praise, the LORD set ambushes against the men of Ammon and Moab and Mount Seir who were invading Judah, and they were defeated.
Thanksgiving Opens the Door to God's Power - which Opens the Door to Victory
Philippians 4:6-7 Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank Him for all He has done. 7) Then you will experience God's peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.
1st Give It to God
1 Peter 5:7 Give all your worries and cares to God, for He cares about you.
Philippians 4:8-9 Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. 9) Keep putting into practice all you learned and received from me -everything you heard from me and saw me doing. Then the God of peace will be with you.
2nd Organize Your Thoughts
2 Corinthians 10:5 We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.
1 Thessalonians 4:13 Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope.
2 Corinthians 4:17-18 For our light and momentary troubles are
achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 18) So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 Be joyful always; 17) pray continually; 18) give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus

The Networking profession is not new. If you look at companies like Amway or Enagic, you'll be able to see that this business has been around for decades. Many of you have heard the pitch from the more aggressive (and usually less successful) Networkers, telling you you can build massive residual income, and that the average person can do it – and THIS is the best way to achieve financial freedom! There might even be a fist-punch to the air, if they're really caught up in it.
I just want to clear up a couple of things first… It's true that this really is the best option for the average person to create personal wealth. What most of these people above won't tell you, though, is the kind of work it will take. They always make it sound easy – and yet most of the time, they won't even have a system for you to plug into. Do you know why most people who want to own their own business will invest in a franchise? Because it's a proven system. They have the products, the name, and the training required to make that business work. They know that one of the reasons franchises are so successful is that they are based upon teaching a new franchise to do the same things that other already successful franchise owners are doing. Safe, right? All you need is $100,000 to $1,000,000 to get started…
My problem with this traditional franchise system is that, although you may now have your own business… you have also bought yourself a job. Now, I like multimedia and I also like to point to people who know a lot more than I do… so instead of explaining this I'm going to share a really amazing video with you. WATCH IT!
Have you Watched it yet? (yes these are all the same link… trying to maximise your opportunity to learn something really important.)
I really don't know what to say that Robert hasn't already said in his video. (DID YOU WATCH IT?! It's okay, I know it's 18 minutes long, who's got time right? Let me help you out, there is a little red X in the top right corner of this window…. just go ahead a press it…)
I want you to understand, just like Robert says, that Network Marketing is NOT all about making money. The reason Network Marketing is truly wonderful is that it's about HELPING people. You won't truly understand this until you have done it for someone else… This business will make you cry, that much I can guarantee. One of my favourite experiences was with a middle aged single mom. Since her kids were born all she wanted to do was take her kids to Disneyland. She worked day and night just to stay afloat. Her debt was getting bigger and her dreams for herself and her children were shrinking as they slipped further and further away. When she was shown this business model, she understood this was a way for her to transition to the B side (that's a Robert Kiyosaki reference… if you don't get it, go back and watch that video 😉 and start building assets. I'm sure you know where this story is going. Yep, it's going to Disneyland with her kids.
How did she do it? Simple. She knew a lot of people just like her who had no way out – and then, she showed them a way out. She served them, taught them, and allowed many people to achieve their own dreams. The secret is this: the more people you help to get everything they want out of life, the more you'll realise you have all the freedoms you have ever dreamed of having. Trust me when I say there are a LOT of people out there who are really struggling in the 21st century. This new economy I talked about in my last post is not your friend, unless you take the advice of people who have overcome it and know the way out.
Going back to this franchise system people love so much. Network Marketing is no different when it comes to a working system. If you follow the system, then you will succeed. Makes sense?
Here is traditional Network Marketing as I was introduced to it: (NOTE: This is an example of a functioning system; not all teams work this way. "This way" being, with Leaders who support you and teach/tell you what to do until you become a leader yourself)
Step 1 – Someone invites you to see a Business Opportunity
Step 2 – You understand the opportunity and make the initial investment (Typically $350 – $1,500)
Step 3 – You meet with your leader where he/she tells you everything you will need to do within the next 30 days and beyond.
Step 4 – You have your own business launch (usually in the form of a meeting or party at your house, inviting as many people as you can to see this business opportunity)
Step 5 – The people that came to your launch who understood the opportunity the same way you did, jump on-board and the cycle continues.
This is fairly generalised and there are obviously important details I have left out for the sake of time.
This is how I spent my first few years building my business. I had a problem, though… One of the big reasons I loved this idea so much was that I could work from home. What I quickly learned was that as my Network got bigger, I was spending a lot of time OUTSIDE my home. Weird, right? I was just going to meetings and business launches perpetually. Considering that I simultaneously worked full time, I was actually at home very little. Now, I was fine with this in the respect that I was building assets, so that I could have more freedom later. But really, "later" wasn't good enough for me. Full blunt honesty: I wanted babies, and I wanted them yesterday. For reasons I won't disclose at this time, (to respect my wife's privacy) I needed to be home more during the day for that to be an option for us – not just one or two of my waking hours.
This led to a lot of research. There HAD to be a way to build a Network online… and if there wasn't, I would make one! I had a vision one morning of how this system was going to work, after finishing yet another book on the subject. I needed a way to plug prospects into something that would educate them on my product. I also needed proven training methods that would allow anyone who wanted to use my system to succeed just like me. A fully functioning system that would take a complete stranger and turn them into a customer or a business partner almost automatically. (I say almost because you still need to actually speak to these people…bummer, right? …Wrong, it's actually pretty cool.)
So I got to work. Then, suddenly, a good friend of mine gives me the oh-so-familiar invitation to see his business opportunity. Being a smart business man, I am always open to seeing something new, especially (and probably exclusively) when it is brought to my attention by someone I trust.
Now wouldn't you know, the system I had just started building was just laid out in front of me by this trusted friend, in all its glory. People were already using it, and finding huge success! It had already been created by amazing industry leaders, whose names I already knew! I think my response was something akin to "Plug me in, baby!"…
And now I work from home. For REAL. I couldn't be happier.

Well, I know I have been missing in action for a couple months now, so time to get back in the swing of things! Spring has been full of yard work, gardening, cleaning, and FUN! That has taken away from my blogging, but with Stampin' Up's new catalog going LIVE this week, and a pile of NEW stampin' stuff, I am ready to get back at it!
This is my first installment of NEW stuff. New In-Colors, New Blendabilities Markers, New Ribbon, Twine, Punches, Dies, and Stamps!! OH MY! I'm excited to get my fingers inky and my creative juices flowing. I put my stamp set together last night, so I am ready to go. I will hopefully have something fun to share with you very soon, but until then I will give you a peak at some of the things I have been working on the last couple months.
These are a couple cards that I created with the retired stamp set, Bulbs in Bloom. It is a perfect set to create some fresh Spring cards. I made these for my parents and in-laws for Easter. I used a Crushed Curry card base and my Scalloped Tag Topper punch (p.221 in the new catty) to create the closure. I added a piece of DSP from the Afternoon Picnic DSP (retired). I colored the image with markers and used my Apothecary Accents (p.230 in the new catty) to cut out the image. Finally, I embossed the white cardstock layer on the inside of the card with the retired embossing folder, Framed Tulips. I really love using "old" stamp sets with new products….it breathes a bit of new life into them!
This card was CASED from a card that I saw on Pinterest by Norma Jones. Just a simply cute bunny created with Framelits and Punches. (Can you tell I have gone back to April to share what I have been up to?!) I changed the face a little from her card to make it ALL with paper and punches.
This is another Easter card that I made using punches. I was inspired by a card by Mary Fish for this card. I added some grass cut with my Fringe Scissors (p.215 in the new catty), some DSP, and a White layer embossed with the Stripes embossing folder (retired). The card base and DSP is Blushing Bride.
Well, that is it for today. My NEW stuff is calling my name….so, I will try to bring you a NEW creation tomorrow, AND I will try not to go missing on you again! Happy Stampin'!

I can't believe it's been a month since Jodes and I went to Chicago for "Hamilton!" While the play was undoubtedly the highlight of the weekend, we crammed plenty of Schwegmanigans (HA) into the 48 hours I was there to enjoy.
Arriving Thursday afternoon to the most beautiful day ever kicked the trip off on the right foot. 70 degrees and sunny in Chicago on November 17th? Does it get better than that?
Jodes and I checked in at our BnB, dropped our bags, and killed a few hours shopping in Lincoln Park before heading to RM Champagne for dinner. I enjoyed the street graffiti...
...not to mention RM's STRONG gallery wall game.
Em arrived soon after work, and we splurged on a major bottle of Ayala Blanc des blancs for the dinner.
We chased our healthy dinner of French onion soup, trois-fromage flatbread and copious amounts of pommes frites with mignardises...pumpkin spice and pistachio macarons, cheesecake bites, and tiny brownies. So perfect, so girly, so fun!
After our foray to the PrivateBank Theater to see the "Hamilton" marquee, we went home and crashed...Jodes and I had been up way early and were dead!
The next morning, we enjoyed coffee and fruit at our stunning BnB while bonding with our hosts. Fun story: they happened to have a nephew who had literally just moved to the same suburb of Detroit as little bro Jonathan!
Didn't hurt that the place is absolutely STUNNING, either. So pretty! I'd like to live there, please. Or just have it be my house someday in ten years or so when I'm supposedly actually a grown-up.
We met up with Em on her el train stop and headed to brunch at Kanela Breakfast Club. Meems and I split the fried egg sandwich and the goat cheese omelette...both were write-home-to-mama good, except our mama was right there with us!
The weather turned on us during brunch, so we ducked around the corner and across the street, where we encountered my new favorite place ever:
As a self-professed book freak, couldn't not take a photo, lol. I prefer my books well-done, but rare is nice too :)
We killed over an hour in Foursided, one of Em's favorite stores in the area, and picked up plenty of pretty girly things. As soon as the rain cleared we hoofed it to Em's street...
...while I marveled at my beautiful Schwegwomen and the gorgeous leaves. Chicago, man, you're pretty.
I finally got to see Em's new place and marvel at her and her roommate Karli's decorating skillz! Her gallery wall was a particular favorite of mine. Oh to have an artist's natural eye and not have to be the world's hugest spaz about gallery walls!
Having done our off-the-beaten-path "real Chicago" stuff, we did literally one of THE most touristy things possible and headed to the Signature Room at the Hancock Center for pre-show cocktails! Despite the rain, the view from our table at the window couldn't have been prettier.
The bubbles didn't hurt, either ;)
Having admired the view and pointed out landmarks to our heart's content, we hit the streets and strolled in the direction of "Hamilton" and our dinner res, which was about two miles down from the Hancock. Thinking we'd grab an Uber on the way, we changed our minds as soon as we saw how gorgeous the city was post-storm.
And lucky we did! We stumbled right on the Wrigley Building tree-lighting ceremony!
Carolers, confetti, a giant spruce tree, and Em, Jodes and I even got interviewed about our feelings on the holiday season in Chicago for a local newspaper, haha. It was such a serendipitously funny, fun moment to make the day feel even more special!
We ended up walking all the way to dinner, where I spazzed and got crazy-excited about "Hamilton" as previously chronicled. The next morning I had to be up at 4:45 to head home in time for the evening's opera festivities, but oh my god, Chicago, you stole my heart pretty hard on this trip...
Til next time!

The first thing that pops into my head when I think of "zero waste essentials" is a reusable coffee mug. But I actually don't own one! Coffee to go is not my thing, because what's the rush? If I am having coffee I might as well sit down and drink it from a proper mug, and if I don't have time for that, then I will not give myself a heart attack by drinking coffee while running to catch a train or something. I guess that's just my preference, but what I'm trying to say is that just because you are avoiding trash, it doesn't mean you have to drag all sorts of jars and bags with you at all times! Yet some tools I still consider essential and am happy to pack them with me.
My two essential items
The one thing that I always have with me is a water bottle, as I am trying to keep up with 3L of water per day. It has always been my habit to keep a bottle and refill it wherever I am. I can drink at my desk without constantly standing up to get water. When I travel, I refill at public drinking water fountains, toilets, restaurants, cafes, or other people's places. Even at home, I drink from a bottle, because it means drinking more water and washing fewer glasses. If you live in Berlin, there is a special sticker on all the places that offer a free refill (check the initiative and a map of places here).
My second essential item is a bigger handkerchief. I will use it in case I spill something (happens often), to avoid paper napkins in restaurants, or if I have to grab something on the go, like pastry or apples from Food Sharing (if you live in Germany/Austria/Switzerland check out this anti food waste initiative here). If necessary, a scarf also works in that case. If I have a cold I will pack my collection of small handkerchiefs that I have grown to love more than the disposable ones. I usually don't buy groceries on my way home because I like to be a little more organized about that. But if I know I have to buy something, I will probably take a cotton bag with me.
As my everyday bag is small I usually only grab a water bottle (this one is 0.5L glass bottle) and a bigger handkerchief that I put in a pouch to keep clean.
On packing lunch
I don't pack lunch every day because I can have a cheap meal at University's cafeteria, that includes real plates and cutlery (I just don't take the paper napkin). But if I don't have a lunch date with my colleagues that day, if I am coming in late or not staying long, then I will pack a snack. I like to take something simple that doesn't make a mess or requires utensils, like fruit, nuts or a sandwich. I have a couple of stainless steel containers that I like to use because they are lighter than glass. In the rare case pictured below, I am carrying a smoothie in a glass jar. Often I will put my jars and containers in a small cotton bag, and stick a banana in it too.
This is my work bag that is big enough to carry a snack. As usual, I pack my water bottle (a durable plastic bottle that holds 1L) and a handkerchief in a pouch. I use the stainless steel container for my snack and the glass jar with a lid for my drink. I put them both in a small cotton bag for extra protection.
What I love about zero waste essentials is that you can spot the person in a crowd! At the TED talk I attended, I saw a girl using her own handkerchiefs for the snacks offered there. I immediately knew who to strike a conversation with. 🙂

My recent problems with delivering a web service to customers of the O2 network in the UK has got me thinking a lot about what we expect from mobile network providers.
I was trying to think of an analogy with something we are more used to and realised that web content delivery is very much like parcel delivery: we ask for something to be sent to us, they put it in a parcel and a delivery company are responsible for delivering it to us as quickly as possible without damaging it on route. In the internet context, we ask for a web page and we rely on the internet to deliver the page to us without modification.
However, it appears that we have fairly silently allowed the mobile networks to change this arrangement. For some time now we have been, wittingly or unwittingly, allowing many of the mobile networks (O2, T-Mobile, Virgin, Vodafone to name a few in the UK) to reduce the quality of images that we download. This seems fairly harmless and well intended. If it enables us to surf the internet quicker on our mobile phones when we can't see the images well anyway, then surely this is a good thing?
But it's not as simple as that.
What if I want to send someone an image over a mobile network and the image quality really matters. Firstly, I probably won't realise that O2 are going to modify it on route and may discover too late that the lower quality image has gone to print. Secondly, even if I do realise, how do I make sure that the important image isn't compressed? There is no option to bypass this. There is no way of getting hold of the content we have requested. O2 have substituted what we asked for with something inferior and they do it on purpose without asking us or giving us a choice to opt out.
It really calls into question the whole industry of web services. If you pay a web provider for some data and your mobile operator substitutes something different as it passes through their network, who has failed to deliver? If you pay for Flickr's Pro service and use it on your iPad, can you complain to them if the images you view are substandard? Will Flickr have any idea that the images they are sending you are not the ones you get?
And it's not just about images and image quality.
O2 may be going further than other providers, I really don't know. But I do know that they are modifying the very source code of the web pages you access over the internet. So the web services that painstakingly produced and tested by companies around the world are being modified by O2 in such a way that they may not work when they reach your mobile device or 3G connected laptop. You might blame your mobile phone or iPad whilst totally unaware that the problem is actually because O2 have changed the content enough to break it.
Can web content providers test all their services through every mobile network in the world to make sure that you get the service you have paid for? Of course not!
Should you, as a customer, have to figure out whether the problems you are having come from your mobile provider or the original content provider? Of course not!
Mobile phone networks should be reliable and they should provide the content you ask for without modification. If they want to optimise their networks then they can give you the option of accepting a modified network, but it should always be possible to turn off the modifications quickly and easily if anything goes wrong.
The craziest thing about this story is that, as far as I can work it out, O2's optimisations are probably increasing the load on their network and increasing the latency of their network. I have a suspicion that if they turned it all off they would save themselves some money overnight!
I have engineered a partial workaround for the web site I host and it now works on the O2 network and works quicker than it did before!

Our new generations will learn nothing as our history keeps getting re-written. Misinformation is classed as patriotism and bigotry as virtue.
16th. December should be a date seared into the psyche of Pakistanis right? But is it? Twice this date has brought immeasurable grief to Pakistan.Grief, ignominy, shame, pain, loss, and a lingering question of why it happened and could it have been prevented.
I am of course referring to the two cataclysmic events in our history; events that led to the fall of Dhaka (Dacca as it was known as in those days) on 16th, December 1971, and the murder of our innocent school children and their brave teachers in the Peshawar Army Public School on the same date in 2014.
What do you remember about December 1971? I was still in school, but old enough to remember the 1965 war, which just brushed by the Karachiites, so the sight of tracer bullets in the sky was something strange on that cold December night in 1971 when Karachi was attacked. Because of…

"Winning Arguments: What Works and Doesn't Work in Politics, the Bedroom, the Courtroom and in the Classroom" by Stanley Fish.
Adult nonfiction. Legal scholar Stanley Fish provides a practical, thought-provoking guide to improving argument skills. By dividing the book into four mini-guides on politics, domestic matters, law and academe, Fish ensures that it offers something for everyone. He begins with an illuminating philosophical treatise on the nature of argument, showing how embedded it is in human nature. Fish uses several object lessons, including the characters of Satan in Paradise Lost and Juror No. 8 in Twelve Angry Men, to illustrate the subtlety and complexity involved in successful persuasion. Throughout, he shows how arguments operate according to different rules in different contexts. What is valued in the academy is not necessarily valued in the courtroom — or the bedroom. At home, he claims, arguments are first and foremost "performances of personality creation." The variety of references, such as a comparison of Donald Trump to Michel de Montaigne, is just one aspect of Fish's stellar knack for crafting his own persuasive style. An important book for any lawyer, scholar, or pundit — not to mention any spouse who has tried to walk back fractious words — Fish's shrewd work can help everyone better understand the power of effective communication in everyday life.

My heart was trembling in agony and I was sobbing so hard that I could hardly talk. I was standing in the Minneapolis airport getting ready to say good-bye to my younger sister Sheila. It was the summer of 1993 and communism had recently fallen in Russia and my precious baby sister was flying over to Moscow to become a missionary. Even though Sheila is younger; her wisdom is far greater than mine. Sheila looked at me and told me that I needed to stop crying and pull myself together. She asked me what is the worst thing that could happen to me over in Moscow? I told her that she could die over there and than what would I do!
I will never forget her response to my fears. "Michelle, whether I live or I die, I will be with God. What more could you ask for?" I was humbled and I felt ashamed that I had not put my trust in God. I remembered the little pin that I was going to give Sheila as a farewell gift. It was a picture of God's hand and resting in His palm was a young girl. It goes along with Scripture passage from Isaiah 49, "I will never forget you my people, I have carved you on the Palm of my hand. I will never forget you, I will not leave you orphaned, for you are my own. Would a mother forget her baby? Or a woman a child within her womb? Even if these forget I will not forget you because you are my own." I had bought pins for myself and our other sister Jimella, to wear close to our hearts while Sheila was in Russia.
The time had come for our final hug and although the tears were streaming down my cheeks and dripping off the end of my nose; I felt a peace from deep within. It was not a peace that could come from me, it was the peace that passes all human understand, the peace that can only come from God. My heart ached as I knew it would be almost a year before we would see each other again; and this was long before e-mail and cheap phone rates. I was excited for Sheila and all of the people that I knew she would touch with God love and to be able to share His precious word with them.
Sheila had been in Moscow for a few months and it was the beginning of October. That week-end I decided to go home to visit my parents. That night we were watching the news we saw the horror that was happening in Moscow; they were in a midst of a Civil War. We sat there in shock and disbelief; and we watched the events unfold right before our very eyes. The phone begin to ring with family and friends calling from all around the world asking if we had heard from Sheila. We had no way of getting a hold of her and so all we could do was pray and ask others to do the same. After the phone had quieted I shared with my parents the talk that I had with Sheila at the airport. I had given my mom a little statue of a little girl carved in God's hand. We talked about how we knew that Sheila was with God no matter what happened and that He was holding her close to Him right now. We found comfort that Sheila was living with a Russian family and she had quickly become their adopted daughter and they were very protective of her.
As I went to sleep that night I held onto to two thoughts: Sheila is with God and He has her in the Palm of His hand. I awoke many times and I could feel God's peace surrounding me and I prayed that it would surround and enfold Sheila and also my parents.
The next morning the phone rang; I'm not a track star but I made record time in running down the steps to get to the phone, we knew it had to be about Sheila. Hearing her voice on the other end of the phone brought tears and hearts that were grateful to hear her beautiful voice. She said she knew she had to call because we would all be worried sick; she shared that while it was bad it was not as terrible as the news stations were sharing with us. Her Russian family had forbidden her to go out and would not do so until it was once again safe in the streets of Moscow.
It's hard to let go of our loved ones. I weep everytime I say goodbye to parents after visiting them, because deep in my heart I know I will never be ready to say a final good-bye to them here on earth. I know someday my boys will grow up and I will need to let them venture out on their own. It is a part of life.
I have the privilege of having friends all over the world and I long to have them all close by. I know the Lord holds them all in the palm of His hand.
Whenever I think about heaven one of the things I like to think about is how I will never have to say good-bye to anyone there. Because we will have all of eternity to spend together.

1. Overview
The instrument is used to control low-permeability oil well pumping unit. When it detects a serious shortage of oil supply, the pumping unit will be ordered to stop; after the well liquid level recovers, the oil well starts working again, and repeats in such way.
2. Main Functions
. Setting function: various parameters can be set via keyboard;
. Auto-learning function: According to well liquid supply situation, it can automatically learn and gradually work out the best time for intermittent oil pumping;
. Auto-monitoring function: According to detected current and power signal, it automatically finishes the best control of intermittent pumping using built-in optimization control algorithm;
. Forewarning function: Before starting motor, you can set a warning, such as a two or three minutes' voice, shortest oil pumping time, longest stopping time, which will prevent some difficult cases happening, for example, the time for stopping pumping cannot be over long, or some special requirements needed. It can not only record the booting time and stop time of oil pumping unit, but also measure the motor power consumption, and provide balance index as well;
. Extended function: With adding data transfer radio or GPRS module, it can not only achieve real-time remote transmission of data, but also realize the remote control of start and stop and intermittent pumping program adjustment; with intermittent pumping parameters set and intermittent pumping situation monitored via control center, it achieves control center intervened manually.

Froome satisfied with Skys team time trial start to Vuelta a Espana
August 19, 2017 (20:00) [ Indexed from
Team Skys opening salvo in the Vuelta a Espaa did not see the British team repeat their 2016 team time trial win, but Chris Froome has already carved out a respectable advantage on some of his key rivals. On the downside, BMC Racing Team are ahead of Sky by nine seconds. Team Sunwebs Warren Barguil pulled out a surprisingly strong performance to edge three seconds up on the British team, and Quick-Step Floors, led by GC outsider David De La Cruz, are also three seconds ahead. However, there are many plus points for Froome on what was a short, technical team time trial, with a 22-second advantage on Vincenzo Nibali (Bahrain-Merida), touted as his freshest rival, 26 seconds on Alberto Contador (Trek-Segafredo), and a hefty 32 seconds on Fabio Aru (Astana). Most importantly of all, perhaps, Froome has gained 37 seconds on Romain Bardet (AG2R La Mondiale), third in the Tour de France.ADVERTISEMENT Skys team time trial performance was always consistent, even if their time, six seconds down at the mid-way point on BMC Racing, made it unlikely they would actually win. Froome himself put in some big turns as Sky came into the finishing straight with five riders, the minimum required, but enough to ensure that the British team completed the course collectively in good shape. As reporters approached him at the finish, Froome wheeled quickly round before delivering one quick comment to the media and then heading to the Sky team bus. Its a good start for us, Froome said. OK, its not the stage victory, but we put in a very solid ride. You can read more at Cyclingnews.com
Vuelta a Espana: Every day an opportunity for Cannondale-Drapac
August 19, 2017 (20:00) [ Indexed from
For Cannondale-Drapacs sport director Tom Southam and his riders, the Vuelta a Espaa is not about cycling; its all about rugby. More or less. For them, its about picking up the ball and running with it, Southam tells Cyclingnews, this being the directors metaphor for how his team has to take the opportunities in the Vuelta the instant they come up, and use them to the best of their abilities. He points out that the team have no major GC ambitions this year, after Andrew Talansky, fifth last year, suffered a knee problem following the Clsica San Sebastian and Davide Formolo, ninth, came down with bronchitis after the Tour de Pologne.ADVERTISEMENT Weve no major initial GC ambitions, which means every day is an opportunity. Thats how we raced the Giro dItalia, at the start, and Davide Formolo ended up doing well. It was how we started racing the Tour, up to a point, and things built from there [all the way to second overall for Rigoberto Uran - Ed.]. If we could get a stage win, say, in all three major Tours, that would be amazing. Amongst those options for a stage win is Belgiums Tom Van Asbroeck, already with several top 10 places at the Vuelta back in 2015, whom Southam believes could have a chance in the Vuelta sprints. After a weeks racing here, the sprints start to change pretty fast, and Tom could still be there on some of those hilly stages. Look at how well [Orica-Scotts] Magnus Cort Nielsen did last year - winning two sprint stages in the third week - and with all due respect, hes not a top drawer sprinter. However, a lot of Cannondale-Drapacs ambitions will centre around their Grand Tour debutants - Tom Scully, Brendan Canty, Will Clarke and Toms Skujins. You can read more at Cyclingnews.com
De la Cruz signs for Team Sky
August 17, 2017 (20:00) [ Indexed from
David de la Cruz will join fellow Spaniard Jonathan Castroviejo in the colours of Team Sky next season. De la Cruz, who is set to lead Quick-Step Floors at the Vuelta a Espana this month, had been heavily linked with the British WorldTour team. Im excited to be joining the team. Ive really enjoyed my time at Quick-Step but I definitely feel that, at this point in my career, Team Sky is the best place for me to progress and to be the best rider I can be, De la Cruz said in a press release issued by Team Sky. I think the team understand my skills as a rider and what I can offer to the team, so Im really happy to be joining Team Sky and I am looking forward to this new challenge. De la Cruz has long been seen as a stage race contender with plenty of potential.ADVERTISEMENT After turning professional with Caja Rural in 2010, he moved to NatApp-Endura for two years later before he was snapped up by Quick-Step Floors in 2015. After enduring a lot of bad fortune at Grand Tours, De la Cruz made his breakthrough at last years Vuelta a Espana, where he won stage 9 and finished seventh overall. He will ride this years Vuelta a Espana with Quick-Step floors despite changing teams next season. This season, De la Cruz has taken stage wins at Paris-Nice and the Vuelta al Pais Vasco. Illness hampered the middle part of his season but he returned with a successful Vuelta a Burgos where he finished third behind Team Skys Mikel Landa and his teammate Enric Mas. With several riders leaving for other teams, including Landa, Mikel Nieve and Peter Kennaugh, De la Cruz is an important signing for the teams Grand Tour line-up. He is another really versatile rider who can perform a lot of roles, but he climbs very well and he has had some excellent results on really tough mountain stages, like at the Vuelta a Espana and at Paris Nice. Im sure he will fit straight in at Team Sky, said Team Sky coach Xabi Artexte. Focusing on the Vuelta with Quick-Step floors You can read more at Cyclingnews.com
Castroviejo joins Team Sky from Movistar for 2018
August 17, 2017 (20:00) [ Indexed from
Team Sky have confirmed the signing of current Spanish national time trial champion Jonathan Castroviejo as the British WorldTour team continues to strengthen its stage racing roster for 2018, when Chris Froome will target a fifth Tour de France victory. Team Sky has extended contracts with Chris Froome, Michal Kwiatkowski, Geraint Thomas and key domestique Christian Knees in recent weeks but had still to reveal its new signings for 2018 after Pete Kennaugh joined Bora-Hansgrohe, Mikel Nieve moved to Orica-Scott, Ian Boswell switched to Katusha-Alpecin and Elia Viviani was allowed to transfer to Quick-Step Floors despite another year on his contract. Castroviejo is Team Skys first new signing, with news of the arrival of David de la Cruz quickly following. Team Sky and Castroviejo agreed a deal during the Tour de France but waited until today to make it official. The 30-year-old from Getxo, has spent the last six seasons with Movistar, where he helped Nairo Quintana win the 2014 Giro dItalia, and the 2016 Vuelta a Espana. He was also the 2016 European time trial champion and finished third in the time trial 2016 Road World Championships. All his eight career victories have come in time trials, making him a key rider for Grand Tours that include team time trails.ADVERTISEMENT Everybody knows the strength in the team, and how important the spirit between the riders is to the teams success. Im really looking forward to being part of that, bringing my own experience and learning new things, Castroviejo said in a statement from Team Sky. I have been part of Grand Tour winning teams in the past and I want to do that again in the future. Im happy to be taking this next step with Team Sky. Spanish Team Sky coach Xabi Artexte highlighted Castroviejos versatility as a rider. You can read more at Cyclingnews.com
Dombrowski to lead Cannondale-Drapac at the Vuelta a Espana
August 17, 2017 (20:00) [ Indexed from
The Cannondale-Drapac team have confirmed its final nine-rider roster for the Vuelta a Espaa as riders arrive in Nimes, France for Saturday's opening team time trial. Joe Dombrowski will lead the US-registered WorldTour team with Davide Formolo a late withdrawal after coming down with bronchitis. Andrew Talansky will also miss the Spanish Grand Tour. Also in the Cannondale-Drapac line-up are road captain Simon Clarke, Brendan Canty, Will Clarke, Thomas Scully, Toms Skujins, Tom Van Asbroeck, Davide Villella and Mike Woods. Will Clarke will replace Formolo after recently riding the Colorado Classic race in the USA. "The average age in our team is 27 years. It's probably not the youngest team at the start, but I think we do bring the team with the most rookies," said sport director Juanma Garate. "Not only do we have four riders racing their first Grand Tour, but we have another two riders who have only ever done one Grand Tour in their careers.ADVERTISEMENT "We want to continue with the attitude that we showed as a team during this season, specifically in the Giro and the Tour. Of course we don't have high GC ambitions, but we do want to win a stage as we did in the Giro and the Tour de France." Formolo, who recently confirmed he would move to Bora-Hansgrohe in 2018, had been training for the Vuelta a Espana at altitude in Italy but came down with a fever at the weekend and then was struck by bronchitis. He has not raced since the Criterium du Dauphine in June, following his tenth place overall at the Giro d'Italia. He was expected to be one of Cannondale-Drapac's protected riders for the overall classification at the Vuelta a Espana but will now take some time to full recover and then target the series of one-day races in Italy. Cannondale-Drapac have enjoyed successful Grand Tour racing this season with Pierre Rolland winning a stage at the Giro d'Italia and Formolo finishing tenth overall. Rigoberto Uran finished second overall at the Tour de France, just 54 seconds behind Chris Froome (Team Sky), with the Colombian also winning the testing mountain stage to Chambery. Dombrowski rode the Giro d'Italia in May and will tackle his second Grand Tour of 2017. He is well suited to the mountainous route of the 2017 Vuelta a Espana and will no doubt also target stage victories along with Clarke, Woods, Scully and Skuijns, who proved he has recovered from the concussion he suffered at the Tour of California by riding aggressively at the Tour de Pologne.

Ian Boswell signs for Katusha-Alpecin
August 10, 2017 (20:00) [ Indexed from
American Ian Boswell will leave Team Sky at the end of the season having penned a two-year deal with Katusha-Alpecin. The 26-year-old rode with Argos-Shimano in 2012 as a stagiaire before joining Sky in 2013. He is the second official signing for Katusha-Alpecin after Nathan Haas. "I am very excited about Team Katusha-Alpecin. After 5 years in the same team, it is a big but important step for my own development," said Boswell, who becomes the first American to sign for Katusha.ADVERTISEMENT "The talks with Jos Azevedo were very good from the beginning and I liked where he sees me as a rider. I hope to bring my experience into the team and look forward to race with strong riders like Ilnur Zakarin or Simon pilak. And of course, also to be able to ride for the victory one time or another for myself." During his time with Sky, Boswell has twice ridden the Vuelta a Espana and the Giro d'Italia in 2016. A talented climber capable of riding GC, Boswell's personal opportunities have been limited as Sky. Although he has impressed when given the chance with fifth overall at the Tour of California and top three on stages at the Vuelta, Giro del Trentino and Tour of California. For general manager Jos Azevedo, Boswell is a rider full of promise and potential as he explained. You can read more at Cyclingnews.com
Van Poppel finally captures stage victory at Tour de Pologne
August 02, 2017 (20:00) [ Indexed from
After several podium finishes and a brief spell in the lead, the only thing missing for Team Sky sprinter Danny Van Poppel in the 2017 Tour de Pologne was an actual win. And on Wednesday's crash-blighted, rain soaked finale in Rzeszow, it finally arrived. Van Poppel's victory in Pologne came as much thanks to Team Sky's rock-solid positioning on the front of the peloton and surviving four short, Amstel Gold-like climbs as it did to his actual sprint speed. Then there were the crashes, too. Late rainstorms turned the stage 5 finale into a skating rink, with riders going down even when taking corners at a snail's pace, as happened to Joe Dombrowski (Cannondale-Drapac) on a 180-degree turn at the start of the last lap.ADVERTISEMENT Van Poppel was perfectly placed at the front of the mini-peloton when it roared into the final kilometres, with two Sky teammates piloting him safely through the fiddly final city centre. Race leader Peter Sagan (Bora-Hansgrohe), clearly recognising he was onto a good thing, stayed locked onto Van Poppel's back wheel. Van Poppel and his Sky escort found themselves ahead of another crash that ripped into the peloton with 1.2 kilometres to go, and which abruptly reduced the front group of sprinters and GC men from around 40 to less than a dozen. A late move by Youcef Reguigui (Dimension Data) could have caught the Sky mini-train by surprise but instead, they resolutely ploughed on, passing the fading Algerian with about 500 metres to go. Van Poppel started the sprint from a long way out, and despite Sagan's best efforts to get back on terms, not to mention a determined charge from Orica-Scott's Luka Mezgec on his left, the young Dutchman could finally cross the line as a Tour de Pologne stage winner.

Talansky and Uran to co-lead Cannondale-Drapac Tour de France campaign
June 26, 2017 (20:00) [ Indexed from
Cannondale-Drapac announced their complete Tour de France line-up on Monday with Andrew Talansky and Rigoberto Urn set to lead a two-pronged GC approach. Talansky, 28, has finished as high as 10th in the Tour de France, and delivered a fifth-place finish in his most recent Grand Tour appearance at last year's Vuelta a Espaa. Urn has twice finished as runner-up at the Giro d'Italia. Were going in with two GC leaders. Andrew and Rigo. But neither of those GC projects will hinder us from going after stage wins. When I look at this team, I see enthusiasm. I see potential. I see real, quality engines there. And I see a group of people who are really prepared to support one another. I see energy. Its all the things we say we are," said Cannondale-Drapac sport director Charly Wegelius when announcing the riders.ADVERTISEMENT "The Tour is the Tour. Its a double-edged sword and you never know what challenges or triumphs it is going to bring," Talansky said. "A successful Tour has a lot of components. I would love to win a stage. I have never won a stage of a Grand Tour; Ive actually been the closest in the Tour de France in 2015, when I finished second in stage 17. But nothing in the world of bike racing compares to the pure joy of crossing the line first. The general classification will unfold as it does, but I think this Tour route lends itself towards aggressive racing and I certainly wont let the opportunity to win something pass by." Pierre Rolland, having already secured the American squad a Grand Tour stage win in the Giro d'Italia is likely to be among those hunting stage wins in his ninth consecutive start in the Tour de France. Taylor Phinney, making his Tour de France debut in his seventh year as a pro, is another and could have a chance of victory in Saturday's opening time trial in central Dusseldorf.

LottoNL-Jumbo unveil new jersey for Tour de France
June 24, 2017 (20:00) [ Indexed from
The LottoNL-Jumbo team has unveiled a new jersey for the Tour de France, with the black and yellow panels on the original 2017 jersey being flipped so as not to cause a clash with the maillot jaune. The team's predominantly yellow colourscheme creates problems when it comes to the Tour, where the leader of the race wears a yellow jersey.In 2015, the team modified its kit to reduce the amount of yellow on the jersey, and will do the same for the 2017 Tour, which gets underway in Dusseldoorf on July 1. The team's original 2017 jersey, made by Shimano, is made up of a yellow torso, with black sleeves and collar. In the Tour de France version, the torso will be black, with the sleeves and collar yellow.ADVERTISEMENT The word 'Lotto' was written in black on the standard jersey, and 'Jumbo' in white, while on the new jersey it's 'Lotto' in white, and 'Jumbo' in yellow.The black shorts remain unchanged. LottoNL-Jumbo isn't the only team make such modifications for the Tour.ONCE, Mercatone Uno and KAS were all known to alter their kits so as not to clash with the yellow jersey, while Tinkoff-Saxo changed to a grey and fluo camouflage kit in 2015. This year Team Sky will change the colour of its jersey from black to white especially for the Tour, while special edition jerseys have also become precursors for new sponsorship announcements, with Orica-GreenEdge, Giant-Alpecin and Cannondale-Drapac all releasing new jerseys for the Tour last year.

Poels 'not angry, but disappointed' at Team Sky Tour de France snub
June 24, 2017 (20:00) [ Indexed from
Woet Poels has described himself as disappointed, but not angry, at being left out of Team Sky's nine-man line up for the Tour de France. The Dutchman played a vital role in Chris Froome's overall victories in the last two editions of the race but a knee injury has disrupted his 2017 campaign. After a nearly five months on the sidelines, Poels returned to racing at the Route du Sud last week and said he was 'confident' he'd make the Tour team, but the Sky camp clearly felt the question marks over his shape were too great. "Dave Braislford called me on Wednesday," Poels told Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf. "If you get that call and you hear that you're not going, it hits you. In recent months I have done everything to get to the Tour. I was confident that I was going. I think I was ready.ADVERTISEMENT "I'm not angry, but certainly disappointed. As I understand it, I could not help it. Because of that knee injury I am of course a bit of a question mark." Asked if it had changed his attitude towards his team, Poels added: "No,this does not necessarily mean that I want to get away from Sky. I'm fine at the team and have another two years on my contract after this year. Disappointments are part of sport, I am very well aware of that." Poels will now have to readjust his season, with the Vuelta a Espaa coming in as the big target, though it is likely to be a case of helping Froome try and win the Spanish Grand Tour for the first time.

Team Sky include Thomas, Kwiatkowski and Landa in Tour de France squad
June 22, 2017 (20:00) [ Indexed from
Team Sky has confirmed the riders that will support Chris Froome as he targets a fourth Tour de France victory, with Geraint Thomas, Mikel Landa, Milan-San Remo winner Michal Kwiatkowski, and Paris-Nice winner Sergio Henao all in the British teams strong line-up. However, there is no place for Wout Poels or Britons Pete Kennaugh and Ian Stannard. Team Sky are targeting a fifth Tour de France victory after first winning the race in 2012 with Bradley Wiggins, with Froome going on to win it in 2013, 2015 and 2016. Team Sky arguably has the strongest team for the Tour de France and is hoping Froome can find his best form in July after a failing to win a race so far this season. Froome faces a serious challenge from former teammate Richie Porte (BMC), Alberto Contador (Trek-Segafredo), Nairo Quintana (Movistar) and Romain Bardet (AG2R-La Mondiale).ADVERTISEMENT "The Tour de France is a special race and it would just be incredible to win it for a fourth time. Aiming for that fourth victory has given me a lot of motivation," said Froome in a statement announcing Sky's line-up on Thursday. "Were ready as a team and I cant wait for the Tour to start now. Honestly, I just love it. Its a feeling that you dont get from any other race. Geraint Thomas targeted the Giro dItalia as team leader but was forced to quit due to the injuries he sustained in a crash sparked by a police motorbike on stage 9. He has now recovered and recently raced the Route du Sud as a final test of his form. He is expected to be Froome's co-captain as well as a possible Plan B leader for the overall classification if Froome struggles or is injured. Team Sky has again opted for a mixed team of support riders to help and protect Froome on the hectic flat stages and in the mountains. Seven of the riders rode the 2016 Tour de France, with Kwiatkowski arguably replacing Poels and Knees replacing Stannard. The average age of the squad is an experienced 30.8. As statistician Cillian Kelly pointed out on social media, five riders at Team Sky have all finished in the top 15 overall at the Tour de France: As well as Froome, these are Kwiatkowski (11th), Henao (12th), Nieve (12th) and Thomas (15th). Landa has also finished third overall in the Giro d'Italia. " Team Sky (@TeamSky) June 22, 2017 You can read more at Cyclingnews.com
Moscon moves on after racism ban: 'My conscience is clear, I accepted the punishment'
June 19, 2017 (20:00) [ Indexed from
Team Skys Gianni Moscon was back in action at the recent Route du Sud race after serving his six-week suspension for racist comments to FDJs Kevin Reza at home in Italy. He is not due to ride the Tour de France but will target this weekends Italian national championships and then make his Grand Tour debut at the Vuelta a Espana in August. The 23-year-old Italian finished second behind Pierre Rolland (Cannondale-Drapac) on Saturdays tough mountain stage to Gavarnie Gedre that included the climb of the Tourmalet. He finished seventh overall at the Route du Sud, 5:38 down on overall winner Silvan Dillier (BMC). Moscon impressed during the cobbled Classics in April, finished fifth overall at Paris-Roubaix. The racist incident with Reza occurred at the Tour de Romandie with video footage showing the two arguing after teammate Elia Viviani won the third stage to Payerne. Team Sky kept Moscon in the Swiss race, but he then travelled to Manchester for a disciplinary hearing.ADVERTISEMENT Moscon was given a formal written warning and suspended from racing for six weeks, and was due to attend a "diversity awareness course, according to a statement from Team Sky. He apologised to Kevin Reza after the stage and again to him and his team the following morning, and this apology was accepted, Team Sky explained at the time. Gianni knows that there is no excuse for his behaviour and that any repeat will result in termination of his contract.
